Zhu Ling'er's identity in the Yang Mansion is the concubine of the eldest young master of the Yang family. And the so-called maid is just a tool like a pig and a dog. The difference between one word and the difference between cloud and mud. Shen Yu's identity as the "eldest lady of the Yang family" is unshakable, even Zhao Yan, who is the princess of Great Xia, and Linglong, the lord of Beiyan, can only be condescended to equal wives, what else does Zhu Linger have to say? In fact, she was already satisfied.

In this era of strict hierarchy of dignity and inferiority, Yang Zhi is not so bored that he wants to be a saint warrior who resolutely fights against the traditional world. Concubines are concubines! This is indeed an identity arrangement that is acceptable to all. For Zhu Linger, it can be regarded as having a reasonable reputation.

Yang Zhi felt funny: it was as if the three ladies begged him and forced him to marry a little wife! At a young age, he eats and smells fragrant, and his body is great, and the bullet hit rate is extremely high. In case Zhu Ling'er also has a big belly, will the three ladies actively prepare to find the next one for him? What a happy man who lives in the old society!

Naturally, the specifications of concubines cannot be compared with marrying wives.

In this era, it is common for eunuchs and powerful people and wealthy businessmen to take concubines. What made Yang Zhi embarrassed was that even the two old immortals, Wang Yunong, the first assistant of the dynasty, and Chen Wenyuan, the chief lieutenant of the dynasty, each had seven or eight concubines. The side room of the righteous brother Qin Kongyun and the concubine in the room, I am afraid that I can't count them with both hands and feet. My father is so virtuous, and he has taken in several concubines! Looking at Chang'an, only Wei Su, a high-ranking civil and military official in the Manchu Dynasty, "from the beginning to the end", accompanied by Mrs. Jiefa until old age. The world is like this, even if Yang Zhi is the hottest number one red card in front of the emperor, no one will take his concubine very seriously.

Because of the haste of the matter, and Yang Zhiyan's order not to publicize it to the outside world, let alone prepare for the banquet guests, on the day of the wedding, only the red lanterns and hanging red silk in front of the Hou Mansion revealed a little festive atmosphere. Although it seems a little deserted, there is no shortage of new rules and regulations, and Yang Zhi has no choice but to ask himself.

The gossip party has existed since ancient times. Zhu Ling'er's situation attracted the envy of many servants and maids up and down the Yang Mansion. Miss Zhu is said to be a new subordinate of Hou Ye in Shandong, and she originally said that she was a guard for the two young ladies. Why did she become the concubine of the Hou Ye within a few days of coming? It must have been that little goblin who hooked up with Hou Ye when he was in Shandong.

The most depressed person in the mansion is none other than Ah Fu, the chief servant of the Yang Mansion. The dignified Qinfeng Feihu Hou, the eldest young master of the Yang family, what kind of woman do you want? Why do you want to rob your wife with a subordinate? Secretly made a grand wish: I will be developed in the future. I want to marry a concubine too! …… No, marry two!

The only VIPs invited by Yang Zhizheng'er were Xu Wenhan and Qin Kongyun. Although the two of them enter and leave the Yang Mansion as casually as their own backyard on weekdays, Xu Wenhan is the chief assistant of the dynasty, and Qin Kongyun is the eldest son of the Qin family, the richest man in Great Xia. There are two congratulatory guests of this status, and it is not considered to have wronged Zhu Ling'er.

In fact, there were no outsiders on this day except for the two righteous brothers. At present, Chang'an has undergone great changes, and the situation is complicated. Isn't it just a concubine? Not to congratulate him is not to offend him. It's not that I'm distressed about a few He Yi silver, I'm afraid that I'm afraid of the suspicion of holding that kid's stinky feet on my back, so I will attract the emperor's suspicion, it will be too bad! Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years!

Xu Wenhan and Qin Kongyun came early in the morning, and before the auspicious time came, Yang Zhi still welcomed the two to the study as usual.

Yang Zhi's experience in Shandong did not hide from the two. With Qin Jiaoyang, the second son of the Qin family who is based in Penglai, get along well and are like siblings, Zhu Ling'er's identity is no secret. So after the two of them congratulated each other, they didn't ask much.

Xu Wenhan asked with a smile: "Why did the third brother suddenly remember to take a concubine after being summoned by the emperor?" The foolish brother was on duty in the court room the day before yesterday, but he didn't see the chamberlain summoning the third brother to see him, why? ”

Xu Wenhan, a conspiracy-type top talent, seems to have been born for troubled times, and it has almost become a professional habit to capture and collect every information from the court.

Yang Zhi said honestly: "It is the idea of my three precious ladies to take a concubine, and I don't hate Miss Zhu. She herself was willing, and had nothing to do with the emperor's summons. The day before yesterday, the Emperor summoned me in a secluded place in the Imperial Garden. ”

"A secluded place in the Imperial Garden?" Qin Kongyun asked puzzledly, "The emperor rarely summons ministers in the imperial garden?" Third brother, did the emperor summon you alone? What did they tell you? ”

Yang Zhizheng thought about how to reply, only to hear Xu Wenhan answer for him first: "Second brother." Don't embarrass the third brother. You may not know, but I dare to guarantee that the Duke of Qin will be able to solve your doubts. Today is the auspicious period for the third brother, Mrs. Xinnaru, don't disturb the good interest of the third brother. ”

He smiled at Yang Zhigan again: "Third brother, we have discussed last time that the emperor will find an opportunity to beat you, and there is no need for people to know what the situation is with this summons." The secluded place in the Imperial Garden is not a good place. In the future, you need to be more careful and remember not to be too perverse. ”

Obviously, Xu Wenhan had at least heard of that place in the Imperial Garden. Yang Zhiben also had no intention of talking to the two of them in detail, it was still early, so he changed the topic and asked casually: "How is the emperor going to deal with the crown prince?" Has the decree been issued? ”

"It's nothing more than being demoted to a commoner and being confined to residence. The foolish brother thought that the holy will be handed down in two days. Xu Wenhan said: "Wei Su was exonerated from crime, and the emperor promoted three ministers to the cabinet as ministers, this series of actions shows that the prince's rebellion case has actually ended here." Nowadays, the prince still lives in the East Palace Prince's Mansion, except for the suspension of the Prince Luanyi, the daily use is the same as usual. Yesterday, the emperor also ordered Yan Fangjia, the general of the Imperial Guard, to send guards to guard him strictly, and there were special personnel to take care of his diet and daily life, and anyone who went to visit him had to ask for permission. ”

Qin Kongyun sighed: "The world is unpredictable! Who would have thought that the prince of a country would rebel? No wonder they say that there are no fathers and sons in heaven! ”

Yang Zhi shook his head and said, "Not really. The emperor still does this with a bit of humanity, but in fact, it is also for the good of the prince. ”

Qin Kongyun retorted: "The emperor doesn't kill the prince, it's just because he's afraid of taking on the notoriety of killing the prince!" Father and son turned against each other, so that they were imprisoned, and they could never turn over. It's all here, what's so bad? ”

Xu Wenhan continued: "Having said that, but the matter has come to this, what else can the emperor do?" After all, it is his own son, and the emperor still wants to give the prince a heavenly year. Although the crown prince has been deposed, he is not free of life. The emperor did this in order to try his best to protect the crown prince. ”

Qin Kongyun said disapprerovingly: "Big brother's words are very vain. Whether to kill the prince or not, only in the emperor's thoughts. What's more, the crown prince has become a dead tiger, and he is powerless to threaten anyone in the future, who must put him to death? Can anyone still force the emperor to kill the crown prince? ”

Yang Zhi sneered: "Second brother, are you really stupid or fake stupid?" ”

Xu Wenhan said awe-inspiringly: "Say it from the bright place." Of course, the emperor is afraid of leaving a notoriety of killing children in the history books, and he is even more afraid of completely tearing his face with the Jincheng and Guanzhong Haoqiang clans. ”

"You must know that the Great Xia court is full of talents, and there are so many capable ministers! Of the three ministers who were promoted to the cabinet by the emperor this time, two of them were from a large family in Guanzhong. After Guo Ziguang, the former secretary of the Criminal Department, entered the cabinet. It is common sense that his position is filled by the former criminal department, why should he be promoted to Jinan prefect Li Zikuan? Just because Li Zikuan is a descendant of the Li clan in Jincheng. Thinking about it from these two levels, the emperor needs the prince to live! ”

"In the dark, the emperor's move is even more well-intentioned. The first is to prevent the prince from committing suicide. The second is to prevent people with ill intentions from assassinating the prince. Third, it is precisely to prevent someone from forcing the emperor to kill the prince. ”

Seeing that Qin Kongyun seemed to understand, he didn't understand. Still confused, Xu Wenhan took a sip of tea and patiently explained: "As the saying goes, mourning is better than dying." was originally full of confidence and expected to ascend to the sky in one step, but once it failed, it would become a dream, the mother died and his wife was mourned, and everyone rebelled and separated, and the identity and situation were very different overnight. If you are not a man of stone, how can he withstand such a great change? All thoughts are in despair. Who dares to guarantee that the prince will not be a hundred of his heart? If the prince really dies like this, it was not killed by the emperor, but also by the emperor. ”

Second, there was nothing wrong with the crown prince who had been in power for many years, and he was known for his gentleness and diligence, and he was quite virtuous among moderate courtiers and Qingliu literati. If the prince does not die for a day, these people will not die for a day. The Jincheng Haoqiang clan, who was originally behind the crown prince, would not give up lightly until they found a new agent. These two types of people will spare no effort to do everything possible to secretly reconnect with the deposed prince, or there will be mad people who will use the name of the prince to rebel again! The crown prince is isolated from the world. Naturally, it has nothing to do with it, and the sin is not involved. If not, he is already burdened with the great sin of rebellion, as long as he is slightly implicated. Do you say that the emperor will kill him or not? ”

"Third, the second brother Fang Cai also lamented that there is no father and son in the heavenly family, let alone brothers? The story of fratricide in order to seize the throne is endless. Only the dead can truly reassure their opponents, and it is impossible to fight with the living again. There is another verse, don't forget, the emperor fell ill on the way to destroy the Tang class. It was by no means pretended to set up a bureau to lure the prince into the coffin. This matter is known to the important ministers of the court and the central government, but will the other two ambitious princes not know? If the crown prince dies unexplained, the emperor who is sick with a dragon body will still have a bad reputation for no reason, but there is no way to investigate, how can he not lose his life? The emperor sees it very clearly, and he must beware of someone who comes to kill two birds with one stone with such a vicious hand! ”

Xu Wenhan said carefully, Qin Kongyun could listen to the alley, and he couldn't get out of the circle of intrigue, intrigue and deceit. Yang Zhi said with great interest: "Two brothers, can you say something else when we meet next time?" ”

Xu Wenhan smiled apologetically: "We are all regular visitors to the house, the third brother doesn't need to be polite, hurry up and accompany your beautiful girl!" ”

Although the auspicious time has not yet arrived, it is not like the groom to stay in the study to accompany the guests. Yang Zhi got up and went out, just wanted to go around the house, and didn't want to meet Ah Fulai, who was head-on: "Young master, two guests have come to congratulate." The lord wants the villain to come and ask the young master to show him, do you see these two guests? Does He Yi receive it or not? ”

Yang Zhi reprimanded impatiently: "You stinky boy drooped his face listlessly in the morning, are you not convinced by Miss Zhu?" Brother Fu, I have to talk about this matter because you love me, Miss Zhu is not your cup of tea at all. There are so many maids in the house, isn't it enough for you to choose? - Didn't I say that I won't entertain guests or receive congratulatory ceremonies today? Which two bastards are so uninteresting? ”

Ah Fu replied aggrievedly: "Young master, how dare the villain not be convinced?" The eldest young lady has promised to reward me with a house near the Hou Mansion, and she will make the decision for me in the marriage. ”

not only provides free housing, but also equips a wife for free, Shen Yu is really generous! If the gold-collar workers in the previous life knew that Brother Fu enjoyed such treatment, they would probably be envious.

“…… In fact, you have seen those two people, one surnamed Huang and the other surnamed Guo, and they came to the house to see you two days earlier. The congratulations of the two guests were very heavy, and even the old man's eyes were straight when he saw it, so he ordered the villain to come and ask the young master. ”

Yang Zhi knew that it was Huang Jide and Guo Kai when he heard it, so it can be seen that these two high-rollers were paying close attention to the movements of the Hou Mansion and recognized that they were going to go their own way.

Although the old man Yang Yan loves money, he has been numb to the amount of silver he has picked up since he moved to Chang'an. Even the old man looked straight at it? Yang Zhi asked curiously: "Tell me, what did they give?" ”

"The leading silver ticket that was redeemed at the sight of the ticket was 200,000 taels, and two land deed documents. One is 200 acres of fertile land in the suburbs of Chang'an, and the other is a mansion outside Chang'an. Ah Fu swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty and said: "According to the master's estimate, if these He Yi are converted into cash, it should be no less than one million taels." ”

A million taels?! It's really reluctant, no wonder the old man doesn't dare to accept it! The grandeur of the old clans in Jincheng and Guanzhong can be seen from this!

"Young Master, Young Master!" Lao Tzu's eyes straightened, his son is not a bird? These two fathers and sons are all the way! Ah Fu urged: "The master is accompanying the two guests to serve tea in the front hall, and he is still waiting for the villain to reply!" ”

Yang Zhi came back to his senses and scolded in his heart: These two fools! The silver is spent left and right, what kind of heart are you playing? What do I want to do with my house and land? Show off to the emperor? Or are you afraid that those mad dogs in the court who don't know how to die won't have the handle to bite me? One million taels barely sent Lao Tzu away, and he wanted to send it away with the emperor, and do your mother's big dream of the Spring and Autumn Festival!

Hehe said with a smile: "You just said that the young master is very busy today, and he really can't take time to entertain guests." In a hurry, there was no preparation, lest I neglect the two distinguished guests, so I won't leave them to drink the wedding wine today. The silver ticket is easy to use, and it is accepted so-so, and the title deed can only be returned. ”

This can also be called blackmail, which is naturally full of confidence. Speaking from the heart, Huang Jide and Guo Kai are fully qualified to be called the world's masters, in fact, Yang Zhi does not exclude intersecting with the two. But many people don't want to see the Jincheng and Guanzhong Haoqiang clans get too close to themselves, including the emperor. So if you can save it, you can save it, and there is no need to talk nonsense.

Ah Fu was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but secretly slander himself: People borrowed the excuse of congratulations and spent 200,000 taels of silver, not only could they not even mix a meal, but they didn't even have a word of thanks! I've seen shameless, but I've never seen someone as shameless as Young Master Yang!

Na Na asked, "Young Master, do you really say that?" ”

"Yes, that's it!" (To be continued.) )
