Zhu Ying, who was born with the love of her family and fine clothes and food, never thinks about any fairness or unfairness. She will pity the old and pity the poor, and she will also punish the strong and help the weak, but she will never think about what would happen if she was not the daughter of the Zhao State Mansion. Since she was born as a daughter of the Zhu family, she is the eldest lady of the Zhu family, why should she think that if she is not!

Therefore, after returning home at the end of a fulfilling day, she went to Qing'an Hall as usual, and twittered a lot to her grandmother about what she had seen and heard today, and even Hong tried to prevent Hong Shanchang from talking nonsense, and finally grinned and grinned in her grandmother's arms.

"I sent someone to watch in front of the Yashe, I heard that the old servant of Hong Shanchang didn't come out later, maybe Hong Niangzi's method worked, and the old stubbornness finally died down."

Unceremoniously gave Hongshan Chang'an an an old and stubborn name, and she continued: "Today, Hong Niangzi said that Hong Shanchang didn't want to stay in Beijing, because Yuzhang Academy couldn't do without him as a mountain chief. ”

Mrs. Tai was originally pressing the matter of the second prince in her heart, but Zhu Ying smiled with her eyebrows and eyes, her voice was crisp, and her gloomy mood unconsciously improved.

"That's why Hong Shanchang used to read or speak, so he would be unscrupulous, because he didn't want anything anyway. But later, when the third prince was canonized as the crown prince, he was obviously tempted. Because even if the princes teach well, they will be a virtuous king if they stand up to the sky, but the prince is different, because if he is a good teacher, his own philosophy of governing the country can be passed on to the prince. ”

"So Hong Shanchang spared no effort to express himself, whether it was to squeeze Ah Shou at the scripture banquet, or to plan to write and say things this time."

Seeing that Zhu Ying had no grudge against the Hong family, although she was full of ridicule when she talked about Hong Shan for a long time, she couldn't talk about contempt or even hatred, Mrs. Tai felt that this mentality was not bad, and immediately smiled: "It seems that you have a good impression of Hong Niangzi." I think she wrote to me at the beginning, her words were elegant and humble, and she was indeed a very good girl. ”

She paused for a moment and sighed: "It's a pity, most men in the world are more colorful than talented, with Mrs. Zuo's talent and virtue, it is still not human, Hong's can think of taking another path, but you are still a little interested, then it couldn't be better." When you told me before that Ye was willing to teach martial arts, I was relieved, I was really afraid that you would teach people this! ”

"Grandmother, what are you talking about, can't I teach people martial arts?"

Seeing Zhu Ying's coquettishness, Mrs. Tai suddenly laughed so hard that her eyes narrowed: "Yes, why can't you?" Absolutely! But I'm afraid that you will teach you to teach heroes like you who can fight, how will they be able to marry when the time comes! You must know that there may be only one man like Zhang Shou in the world, and others are not as lucky as you! ”

Without waiting for Zhu Ying to express her approval or disagreement, she quickly diverted the topic and said: "Okay, your eldest brother's wedding date is imminent, and it will be you in the next few days, you don't want to focus on female studies, hurry up and prepare for marriage!" Also, although your parents and brothers and I are not taboo for you and Zhang Shou going in and out together, you don't want to go to Zhang Yuan these days. Well, take a good look at this. ”

Zhu Ying was about to protest against it, but Mrs. Tai stuffed a thick stack of lists in her hand, and she was stunned for a while. But when she heard Mrs. Tai's next sentence, she almost jumped up at once.

"This is the dowry list that my mother and you drew up for you, take a good look at it, and say it yourself if you want to add anything!"

Zhu Ying, who jumped up, was immediately suppressed by Mrs. Tai's eyes and sat down. However, when the report of Zhang Shou's request to see came from outside, she still jumped up again, and then threw away the dowry list worth 10,000 gold and rushed out like a whirlwind.

Faced with such a prosperous granddaughter, Mrs. Tai could only rub her temples and shake her head with a wry smile, until she saw the pair of beautiful people who looked like a good match came in from outside the door together. She smiled and waved her hand to signal Zhang Shou not to be polite, and after motioning for someone to sit down, she asked, "Why do you have the kung fu to come here here?" This kind of leaving your mother alone at home at dinner is not like you. ”

"I'm just stopping by, just say a few words and leave." Zhang Shou has long been accustomed to this kind of ridicule, and at this time, he smiled freely and said bluntly, "When I went to Ciqing Palace to teach today, I told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that I planned to change the two-day lecture to a three-day lecture." ”

He briefly mentioned the general reason, and then coughed and said: "Moreover, my wedding date is imminent, even if there is a mother who runs forward, Mrs. Tai, you and Aunt Jiu will also send someone to Zhang Yuan to help Zhang Luo, but I always have to take a little time to prepare myself." Even after getting married, if I was busy all day without touching the ground, and Yingying was also busy with herself, then we would be too pitiful. ”

Zhu Ying's eyes widened suddenly, and then she couldn't help but laugh out loud, but then after Zhang Shou glared at him resentfully, she immediately became serious, and nodded again and again under the gaze of Mrs. Tai: "Grandmother, Ah Shou is right, it's good to change it to a class every three days, otherwise Ah Shou will be too busy!" ”

"Should I say what is good for you, is it a husband and a wife, or is it not progressive?"

Mrs. Tai angrily and funny nodded Zhu Ying with her hand, seeing that people did not repent at all, but suddenly grabbed the dowry list that she hadn't even looked at just now, but she rubbed it next to Zhang Shou and sat down, and gave him the list without hesitation, and she suddenly became even more helpless.

Of course, she only believes half of Zhang Shou's reason, after all, others talk about it every five days, and he talks about it every other day, probably Zhang Shou also wants to eliminate the influence of the big difference, and it is natural to say that Jiuzhangtang is too busy, and he can also move out of the marriage date that is getting closer and closer as a reason. But Zhu Ying is really too reserved for the girl's family, how can a girl who has not yet married personally show the dowry list to the man?

But she saw Zhang Shou casually glance at it a few times, and then stuffed it back to Zhu Ying: "Anyway, you will keep it in the future, you just call the shots." Mother is a thousand and ten thousand are satisfied with everything anyway, let alone me. ”

Zhu Ying was very dissatisfied with Zhang Shou's answer, and said angrily with a light snort: "I know you won't think my dowry is small, I'm asking you to help me see if my dowry is too much, and my eldest brother and second brother will have no money to marry a daughter-in-law when they turn around!" ”

Mrs. Tai was almost choked by Zhu Ying's words, and she didn't have time to laugh and scold, so she only heard Zhang Shou suddenly say: "This is right, if you have too much dowry, your eldest brother and second brother will be less!" Well, I'll take a closer look! ”

Seeing that Zhang Shou was really pointing on the paper, he immediately said to Zhu Ying in a matter-of-fact manner, this shop has a big interest, leave it to Brother Zhu, and the grange has a good harvest, leave it to Second Brother Zhu...... Mrs. Tai finally couldn't help it, and stopped the comment with a light tap on the armrest: "You two are enough!" The Zhu family is not too poor to marry a daughter, and this dowry can still be obtained! ”

"Grandmother! If you really package you and my mother's dowry to me, it will be too unfair to the eldest brother and the second brother! Zhu Ying took the dowry list from Zhang Shou and stepped forward and stuffed it into Mrs. Tai's hand.

"I'm not short of money to spend, Ah Shou said before, wait for me to come over, the workshop and the like will be handed over to me to take care of that day, Zhang Yuan is the same, he doesn't care about things at home!"

Seeing Zhu Ying saying the word "passing" without hesitation, Mrs. Tai was simply angry and funny, but when Zhang Shou really said that she handed over all the most profitable and core things in Zhang Yuan to Zhu Ying, she still couldn't help but feel the trust between the two.

So, she could only say with a straight face: "The rich daughter and the poor raise the son, this Zhu family looks back and your eldest brother and second brother are half of each other, which is much more than your current dowry!" You have to subsidize your second brother, and you will subsidize it in the future, don't spoil him now! ”

Zhang Shou couldn't help but tears of sympathy for Zhu Er, but immediately after, Zhu Ying found another way to make a fuss about the marriage of the future sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, claiming that she couldn't let others compare the amount of dowry, but was directly blocked back by Mrs. Tai.

"Those furniture and the like, I will have people send them to Zhang Yuan in advance, and as for these things, I will only select some of them and put them in the dowry to show off in the market. Don't forget that the emperor mentioned your life experience in public, if you marry in shabby, even his face will be lost. I did the math, if you add those in the palace and other relatives and friends who add makeup to you, one hundred and twenty-eight is about the same. ”

"You can just keep the rest quietly."

Regarding the statement of his future mother-in-law, Zhang Shou suddenly sweated. One hundred and twenty-eight lifts...... Or is it about the same? If every family marries their daughters so much, how many families in the capital will have to go bankrupt?

I have to say that if it weren't for the fact that the table clock was sold a lot in advance, the deposit was collected softly, and in terms of glass, the emperor instructed the celebrant to take the royal workshop to join him in shares, and with his little family background, he really couldn't afford to marry a wife, and he couldn't afford to marry......

Zhang Shou never mentioned the incident that the second prince died due to the sinking of the ship that he had just learned from the mouth of the fourth prince today, and Mrs. Tai and Zhu Ying also tacitly forgot about it. It wasn't until Zhu Ying sent Zhang Shou out that she couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Ah Shou, did you say that the second prince is really dead?" ”

"It's better for him to be dead than alive."

Zhang Shou gave a straightforward answer. Seeing that Zhu Ying didn't ask again, but tightened the clothes on his body with a smile, he shook the eldest lady's soft hair, and then turned around and went out to board the car.

It's a simple answer that doesn't need to be thought about. If the second prince dies, the emperor will not say that he will forgive his sins, at least in various aspects such as the name, funeral (even if it can only be clothed) and so on. But if people don't die...... Unless he is rescued and sent back to the capital, he will either be robbed or run away voluntarily, and there is only one way to live in strange goods anyway.

The protagonists of strange goods do not end well, even if they succeed - look at the origin of this four-character idiom, the King of Zhuang Xiang, who is actually very capable, but finally died of a violent illness in just four years, will know!

After learning that her father's old servant did not go out, Hong did not go back to visit her father, but returned to the palace with Princess Yongping, and when she arrived at Youyizhai behind Kunning Palace, she continued to sort out her anthology - more precisely, it is a textbook for women's studies in the future. However, in the middle of the night, she suddenly caught a terrible scream that was indescribable, and she suddenly shuddered.

After nightfall in the palace, the yin qi was heavy, and the Hong family felt it from the first day of entering the palace. It's just that she doesn't think it's because there are too many dead people in the palace - after how many years of history in the world of Shenzhou, where are there no dead people - but she thinks that there are many buildings in the palace, but they are all very high, and many places have long lost the sun, so it naturally looks cold.

However, today's son is not the king of adultery with countless concubines, and there are no adulterous concubines or anything like it in the harem now, so she has been in the palace for so long, and she has hardly heard much messy movement, and this is the first time that this kind of sound has happened.

Hong tried to listen, but he didn't hear a second sound, and he breathed a sigh of relief for a while. She is not a princess of the queen concubine, she is an outlier in this palace, so she doesn't plan to meddle in things at all. However, she never expected that she would not be nosy, but would take the initiative to come to the door.

Just when she sorted out the manuscripts, washed up and dismissed the palace people, and was about to go to bed, she heard a strange movement of rustling. Rao is she has always been bold, and when she found that someone was pushing the window, she was still startled.

She subconsciously picked up a skirt knife used for self-defense by the pillow, took a deep breath and came to the window, and whispered, "Who is it?" ”

However, her shouts were undoubtedly unanswered, and she pretended to go over and toggle the latch, but suddenly propped up the window after a seemingly slow movement. The next moment, she saw a figure scurrying up, throwing something out of the window, and then running away at a rapid pace.

Hong subconsciously wanted to ask someone to chase her, but when she saw that it was a letter in front of her, her heart tightened, and she was even more frightened. How could anyone send her a letter? For a person like her, who is insignificant in the palace, there are people who would beat her idea? Do you think she can still influence any nobleman?

Although she knew that her wisest choice was to wake everyone up, and then let someone try to hunt down the guy who had scheming to give her the letter, and then hand the letter to the emperor as it was, she still dismissed the idea after taking a look at the letter that had not been sealed at all, and thinking that her low drink just now had not attracted anyone to check the movement.

Whether you read this letter or not, it's the same thing, instead of looking frank, it's better to figure out what the other party plans to do first.

Unwrapping the envelope and taking out the letterhead, he quickly glanced at it at a glance, Hong Shi suddenly smiled, but immediately did not call out someone, but directly put down the branch window and lowered the window latch. She knew that although her father was stubborn, he should not be so easy to get into. What can tempt him is only the so-called black and white, and human righteousness!

So far, only the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it!
