6. Each has its own needs

Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Shen grabbed his father-in-law's hand and gave a handshake salute. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Thank you father-in-law for telling the grass people such an important thing." After saying that, he immediately took out another bag of broken silver and was about to stuff it.

The father-in-law shook his head and refused, and smiled bitterly: "Our family lacks nothing here, and it's useless to ask for so much silver, the only thing that can't be let go is our family's relatives outside the palace." ”

When Shen Cong heard this, he hurriedly replied with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't worry, father-in-law and grass people hit it off at first sight, and they will definitely take good care of your relatives and let them enter the Shen family's business to do things." "This father-in-law released such a signal, Shen Cong is not a fool, such a great opportunity is naturally seized, although the other party is a eunuch, he does not have much power to speak at present, who dares to guarantee that he will not in the future? This potential stock must be started, if you can get his kind words, then in front of the emperor, the pressure on the Shen family can be reduced, and he can better deal with the emperor's slaughter.

When the father-in-law heard this, he hurriedly thanked: "Then our family will thank Shen Gongzi for his love, as long as Shen Gongzi can help our family take care of the relatives outside the palace, our family will definitely send a peach to repay Shen Gongzi." ”

This father-in-law is also an old man in the palace, he is a eunuch at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang left him after entering the palace, this eunuch is very clear about his status, although he is now a celebrity around His Majesty the Emperor, but in the end he does not have much power, and the heroes don't care much about him, it is difficult for him to find a way to take care of his family outside the palace, so he can only pin his hopes on the Shen family, hoping that the Shen family can let his family live well, he will die without regrets in this life, anyway, he is also dying, He can't live for a few years, so it's better to take advantage of the fact that he is now providing some information to the Shen family in exchange for the Shen family's care of his relatives, and this deal is also very cost-effective.

The two tacitly agreed, but they became more affectionate to each other.

Over there, Shen Cong and the eunuch tacitly formed an alliance, and here Princess Yongle in Kunning Palace was talking to her mother, Queen Ma, at the moment.

"Mother, does Dad really want his daughter to marry that Shen Cong?" Princess Yongle said coquettishly like her mother, for Shen Cong, Princess Yongle is very unwelcome in her heart, according to rumors, this Shen Gongzi is singing every night in the flower and wine, a typical loser.

Queen Ma smiled bitterly: "Good daughter, your father can't do anything about this, you look at the fact that the Ming Dynasty has just been founded, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, which requires a lot of silver, and the Shen family has a lot of wealth, and it can only be done from the Shen family, if the Shen family contributes, then I can be a country and a people, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment." ”

"Then just let Daddy ask the Shen family for it, why bother so much." Princess Yongle laughed.

Queen Ma nodded on her forehead: "Do you think this is possible?" Your father was born with a strong personality, how could he talk to a mere businessman, besides, if you were a member of the Shen family, you would be willing to hand over the family property. ”

"If I were Shen Wansan, of course I wouldn't."

"So that's where your dad is distressed." Queen Ma took a sip of tea and said softly.

"By the way, mother, I heard my father say that I married into the Shen family this time, and my father will give the Shen family a holy decree, so that they are not allowed to touch me, and when my father deals with the Shen family, I can come back, and then reassign a marriage, is that the case?" Princess Yongle said to her mother with a sad face.

Queen Ma nodded helplessly: "Your father's meaning must be clear to you, he is going to sacrifice the Shen family to complete his great cause, although this is a bit unkind, but that is also a helpless thing, for the mother can not say anything, can only when your father wants to dispose of the Shen family, just keep the lives of the Shen family, this is what the mother can do." ”

Queen Ma is kind-hearted, naturally she is very opposed to her husband's idea of killing people and seizing treasures, if she wants to seize the property of the Shen family, then just make a charge, there is no need to kill them, after all, their property will eventually belong to the royal family, which is also a great achievement, how can you kill people?

Of course, Queen Ma is still more supportive of the seizure of the Shen family's property, after all, the Shen family is rich, and the people in the world are poor and pitiful, and the court can't take out too much silver for disaster relief for a while, if the Shen family's property is distributed to the people of the world, then this is also a very good thing, so Queen Ma's heart is extremely contradictory, according to her temperament, she should not do bad things, but if this thing is done, it will benefit the people of the world.

Princess Yongle shook her head: "Hey, I didn't expect us to become royal, but we had to do something hurtful." ”

"Yes, this is also a helpless thing, on the one hand, morality, on the other hand, the poor people in the world, it depends on how to choose, and only in a high position can you know this difficulty, so your father's approach will be left to future generations to judge." Queen Ma sighed, there was no way at all.

Princess Yongle also sighed: "In this way, Shen Cong is also quite pitiful, he will have nothing in the near future, if possible, his daughter is willing to be a husband and wife with him for a lifetime, save his life, and it can be regarded as atonement for our Zhu family!" Of course, the father said that after the matter was completed, a marriage would be reassigned, but it was estimated that it would be impossible, after all, the daughter had already married the wife of the Shen family. ”

"What are you talking nonsense, is my daughter still worried about getting married?" Queen Ma was very pleased with her daughter's kindness, but she didn't want to delay her daughter's happiness because of this, and she quickly decided in her heart that she must take care of the lives of the Shen family after the matter is completed, so as not to make her daughter feel guilty.

While the two women were talking, a father-in-law ran in and knelt on the ground in a panic: "Niangniang, princess, something is wrong, Your Majesty is now furious, you should hurry up and persuade you." ”

The princess was stunned: "Isn't there a horse banquet for this princess today?" How can such a happy day be so angry? ”

The eunuch said with a bitter face: "Princess, you should know, this time the Shen family entered Beijing, Your Majesty made special arrangements, but all the deployments were destroyed by Shen Cong, the son of the Shen family, and all your Majesty's hard work was in vain, so she was furious." ”

Queen Ma was taken aback: "What did you say?" His Majesty's plans have been ruined by Shen Cong? ”

"Yes! When checking people at the gate of the city, His Majesty ordered that the Shen family should not be investigated, but who knew that Shen Gongzi directly threw all the things and carriages brought by the Shen family outside the city, and everything was in vain. That's not all, when he entered the palace, His Majesty specially sent a carriage to greet him, but Shen Gongzi refused cleanly, and His Majesty's deployment was all in vain, I thought that it would be Shen Wansan, the master of the Shen family, who did these things, but I never expected it to be Shen Cong. The eunuch said incredulously.

Princess Yongle and Queen Ma glanced at each other and smiled: "It seems that my father has met an opponent this time, but I didn't expect to be strangled by the other party's chess pieces, and I have no chance to get involved in the Shen family at all." ”

Queen Ma also smiled: "What are you happy about, this girl, if this matter can't be done smoothly, then you will suffer, it seems that this Shen Cong is scheming, scheming, the previous turned out to be pretending, and the palace is really blind." ”

Princess Yongle said heartlessly: "If this person has such ability, then marrying him can be regarded as wishful thinking." "Let's ask which daughter's family is unwilling to marry a capable man, Princess Yongle has hoped many times that she can marry a capable and good man, it seems that Shen Cong should be, but why is this good man surnamed Shen?
