In fact, Tang Gongfang and the Xiao family in Lanling had several contacts before, and the books printed by Tang Gongfang were sold by the Xiao family in Jiangnan Road. With the help of Jiangnan Provincial officials, tens of thousands of weaver embroiderers were asked from the Xiao family to count as one.

These two things are big things, and there are small things during the period, but most of them are the connection between His Royal Highness Yiyang and the Xiao family, Chen Fang has seen Yiyang bring things to the Xiao family a few times, so he knows, and he has also seen Yiyang write a letter to her mother, as for what is written, Chen Fang doesn't know.

I had a lot of contact with Tang Workshop before, so Uncle Xiao was also quite interested in talking about Tang Workshop with his grandson-in-law at this time.

Wu Meiniang was behind her, seeing that Chen Fang and Xiao Laozhang had just met, they were chatting enthusiastically at this time, and they were also quite satisfied.

She came to Jiangnan this time, the first thing is to stabilize these clans in Jiangnan, it is best to let them support the new emperor, the Jiangnan clan has always been separated from the imperial court, if you can make the Jiangnan clan return to the imperial court in their hearts, it is also a great achievement.

As for Mr. Xiao's rudeness to himself before, Wu Meiniang had expected it, speaking of which, it involved Concubine Shu, and Mr. Xiao cared most about his daughter, but it was strange that Wu Meiniang could have a good face.

As for being afraid of her status as the queen, Wu Meiniang never thought about it like this.

The famous family has a long history and a deep foundation, if it is just because of rudeness, these famous families can be governed, then Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi have been fighting with these famous families for all these years, and they have already subverted this force, and they will not secretly compromise with the five surnames and seven wangs and the famous families in Jiangnan at this time.

In the final analysis, at this time, the power of the wang clan can still compete with the power of the imperial court. Far from being the king, which others think, is above everything.

Not to mention that at this time, even in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the power of the Wang clan has always been a big force in the Tang Dynasty, and it is basically impossible for the imperial court to eradicate this force.

In addition to selecting talents, in addition to selecting talents, it was also one of the original intentions to weaken the power of famous families, but at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial examination failed to weaken the power of the Wang family, and even in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the power of the Wang family was also bigger.

Standing in Wu Meiniang's position at this time, in fact, some of the unhappiness with Xiao Laozhang just now was just a matter of laughing.

The higher you stand, the more you actually think about it, and outsiders will feel that the two of you are tense. And insiders actually don't have any waves in their hearts at all.

Perhaps, this is the so-called city government.

Therefore, Chen Fang's worries are just superfluous between Wu Meiniang and Xiao Laozhang.

Chen Fang talked a lot to Uncle Xiao all the way, and when it came to rapeseed oil, Chen Fang saw Uncle Xiao stop outside a courtyard, where Mrs. Huijing had already gone to knock on the courtyard door, and Chen Fang stopped talking.

"Grandpa, my mother lives here?"

"Hmmm! An'er, everything is fine with your mother here, you will know when you see it in a moment. ”

At this time, the courtyard gate opened, and several people looked at the woman who opened the courtyard door, a little nun.

"Is Senior Sister Huixian in there?"

"Abbot, here!"

The little nun stepped aside and looked at the group, there had not been so many people in the temple for a long time, since the old man of the Xiao family came to Yunmeng Temple, he felt that the incense in the temple was too prosperous, and he quarreled with Master Huixian Qingxiu, but within a few days, the incense of Yunmeng Temple faded down.

At this time, there are basically few people who come to Yunmeng Temple, but there is no shortage of all the uses in the temple, and people send them every month, which is much better than before.

Moreover, the land of Yunmeng Temple is also several times more, all of which are donated by the Xiao family. At this time, the economic source of the temple mainly depends on the real estate in the hands of the temple, and as for the sesame oil money, the big temple generally does not rely on this.

The little nun stepped aside, and Mrs. Huijing took a group of people into the courtyard, at this time Chen Fang looked at the courtyard, the courtyard was very simple, with stone tables and stone benches, and a small piece of land planted with a lot of orchids, and Xiao Shufei was loosening the soil for orchids in that small field at this time.

After listening to the footsteps, he turned around and saw the people who came in, and bowed slightly to Wu Meiniang.

Over there, Gao An had already run in front of Concubine Xiao Shu in a few steps, in front of the woman with the legal name Huixian at this time.

"Mother!"

Gao An saw his biological mother at this time, and he had already shed tears when he reunited after a long absence, and threw himself into his mother's arms, and the tears could not stop flowing.

"An'er, stop crying!"

Concubine Shu stroked Gao An's hair, relieved herself, and then looked at the group of visitors, some of whom knew and some who didn't.

"Queen Mother, several highnesses sit inside!"

"Concubine Shu, don't come unharmed!"

"Queen Mother, there is no concubine here at this time, only Huixian!"

Wu Meiniang nodded, walked in front of Huixian, reached out at this time, and pulled Huixian's hand.

"In Chang'an before, I offended my sister a lot..."

"Huixian has entered the empty door, and I don't think much about the previous Hongchen thing, please Niangniang, I will make tea for Niangniang."

"It's also a good thing that my sister can let go of those things, life is too short and it's hard to be easy. At this time, looking at my sister Qingxiu, my sister was also a little envious. ”

"That lady will stay in Yunmeng Temple for a few days!"

"My sister has the same intention!"

At this time, Huixian took the initiative to take Wu Meiniang's hand, the so-called smile and enmity, roughly like this, Chen Fang looked at Concubine Shu at this time, but he also had a lot of emotion.

When I saw it once, I felt that Concubine Shu had seen a lot, and when I saw him again, I understood that Concubine Shu had experienced something, but she realized it.

Huixian let the group into the house, and at this time, Mrs. Xiao saw that his daughter and the queen were smiling and grudging, so he naturally didn't care a lot.

The little nun served tea, and Chen Fang took a sip, but it was the top grade of tea, no less than the tribute sent to Chang'an by Jiangnan.

At this time, he looked at Mr. Xiao, but he also understood that he was here, and it was strange that this tea could be used for the second time.

Over there, Huixian and Wu Meiniang were chatting, and at this time, Uncle Xiao called Chen Fang and continued to talk to him about what he was talking about just now.

Several princesses and princes felt bored, Wu Meiniang looked at Huixian, and Huixian asked the little nun in the courtyard to take the princess and princess to the temple for a walk.

There was no time for this gossip, and when the sun hung over the distant mountains, Huixian stood up.

"Niangniang, there is only vegetarian food in the temple, I don't know if Niangniang can get used to it."

"Sister, Mei Niang..."

Wu Meiniang had just said half a sentence, but Uncle Xiao, who was chatting with Chen Fang over there, laughed, leaned on the floor with the jujube wood cane in his hand, and said three sentences in a row.

"Grandpa, how could Chen Fang lie to his grandfather! Chen Fang traveled all the way, and felt that the land in the Yangtze River basin was just right to grow rapeseed, especially in the Jianghan Plain, where the land is fertile and irrigation and water conservancy is convenient, so it is rare to plant rapeseed in large quantities. ”

"But this oil extraction?"

"Grandpa, when the time comes, grandpa will choose a few trustworthy subordinates of the Xiao family, and the grandson-in-law will let them teach them to squeeze oil."

"Good! Good! Good! My two granddaughters are well married. Haha, your grandson-in-law, grandpa likes it, likes it. ”
