The emperor announced, there was no room for bargaining, Chen Xu decided to go out early tomorrow morning, he and Saihuatuo rode first, Sirou and they were escorted back to Beijing by the forbidden army, accompanied by Chen Xu's family, and more than 150 hard-working women.
For safety reasons, Chen Xu not only stayed with Qi An and Gao Yi to escort them along the way, but he also took care of a single business of the Shendao Dart Bureau, and the main task of this trip was to send this group of people to the capital safely. With the credibility of the Divine Sword Dart Bureau and the prestige of the immortal gods in the rivers and lakes, I believe that ordinary Jianghu Xiaoxiao will never dare to fight their ideas.
That night, Chen Xu stayed in Princess Sirou's room.
Qiushuang and Dongxue dutifully guarded the outside, both of them were yellow flower girls, and they could hear Chen Xu's wheezing sound in the room and Princess Sirou's crying, laughing, painful and cheerful whimpering, the two of them blushed and heartbeat and were a little inexplicable.
Qiushuang couldn't hold back her curiosity, she quietly poked a hole in the window paper with her fingers, and leaned in to take a look with one eye closed, but saw that their princess was in a shameful pose......
At this moment, the autumn frost seemed to be struck by lightning, and the crispy and numb feeling quickly spread throughout the body.
"Sister, you peek at ......"
Qiushuang pretended not to hear her sister's words, she turned around and blocked in front of Dongxue.
"Dongxue, don't sleep yet, the princess may want us to serve in a while." Dongxue just pouted dissatisfiedly......
The clouds are gone, and the color is bright.
It was already late at night, and after changing the bedding in autumn frost and winter snow, she withdrew from the door with a red face, and the little princess's eyes were misty in Chen Xu's arms, she liked the feeling of murmuring with her lover.
"Xianggong, Sirou is twenty years old and wants to give you a baby."
When Chen Xu heard this, he sat up from the bed as if he had been stimulated by something.
"Xianggong, what's wrong with you? Don't you like it? The baby is really cute, Sirou can envy Sister Mengyao and Qiuyue. ”
Sirou put her backhand around Chen Xu's waist, lazy and lazy. She didn't even want to open her eyes.
"My little aunt, we haven't gotten married yet." Chen Xu smiled bitterly, get on the bus first, and then make up the ticket, this is already avant-garde enough, he doesn't want to play a game of Fengzi to get married, "You also know that there are many royal rules, even if Your Majesty and I are married, God knows when it will be a good day and an auspicious day, and when you go to the church with a big belly, then the fun will be great." ”
"Say it again. You're a monk now......"
Sirou said dissatisfiedly, "No jokes, it's all fake." ”
"Of course, if you really want to become a monk, I can't bear it." Chen Xu rubbed his silky skin, and he leaned over to whisper in her ear, "I'm still a little unsatisfied." ”
Outside, as soon as the autumn frost and winter snow went to bed and lay down, the embarrassing sound of the ** impact once again came to their ears. Their hearts were even more confused......
Chen Xu had long lost the habit of sleeping lazy, and the next day, as soon as the sky was bright, he was about to get up; Sirou is a princess. Educated by the royal family since childhood, waking up early at dawn is the most basic requirement, and even though she tossed late last night, she refused to stay in bed.
"Why do you both have dark circles under your eyes?"
Autumn frost and winter snow didn't even dare to look at Chen Xu. Chen Xu's doubts didn't last long, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he heard the two sisters and the princess in the room whispering. Who knew that Yingying's boudoir sound insulation was so poor?
In the small courtyard, Yingying and the others had already gotten up to practice.
Yingying's eyes were slightly red, Dou'er yawned, Meng Yao looked even haggard, and only Hu Yang was boxing.
"Meng Yao, why don't you sleep for a while, women can't sleep well, but they are easy to get old."
Chen Xu said half-jokingly, but Meng Yao almost fell into tears, "Of course people are not as good-looking as princesses," he turned his head and left, muttering as he walked, "The man who likes the new and hates the old ......"
Chen Xu touched his nose and looked at Dou'er again, "What's the matter with the two of you." ”
"Yingying has never left Jinling since she was a child, and when she thought that she was going to leave here, she was reluctant, so she asked her family to talk to her."
Hearing Dou'er's words, Chen Xu was silent, but Yingying shed tears.
"Silly girl, if you want to think about your father-in-law and mother-in-law in the future, it's not that you can't come back."
Chen Xu took Yingying's hand and comforted her.
"Xianggong, the concubine also knows this truth, but she is a little reluctant."
Ying Ying cried, of course, she still had one thing hidden in her heart: when she married Chen Xu, she enjoyed the treatment of her wife, but now she has become a concubine, and she is really unsteady when she goes to the capital. She didn't mention it to anyone, including Dou'er.
***************************************
Chen Xu did not make a noise about entering Beijing, and there are not many people who practice it, in addition to the new and old Fu Yin, there are also Yingying's father and Dou'er's father.
With Chen Xu's imprisonment, friends in officialdom and business partners have drawn a line with it, and even within the two families, they all asked Xue's father, Zhu's father and daughter to draw a clear line.
Whether it is Father Xue or Father Zhu, the shape is stronger than people, and they have all had the idea of wavering.
Because of this incident, Xue's mother not only had a very stiff quarrel with the concubines, but she also had a big quarrel with her husband. She resolutely told her husband that if she wanted to deny her daughter, she would divorce her first, she had lived with her daughter, and even if she was beheaded by the whole house in the future, she would accept her fate; As for Father Zhu, he finally had a conscience, and the more he felt sorry for his daughter when he reflected on his daughter's affairs these days.
When Zhu's father was about to be unable to stand it, he heard the news of Chen Xu's release from prison, especially when he heard that it was Her Royal Highness the eldest princess Sirou who personally went south and brought the emperor's holy decree, he couldn't help but secretly scream a fluke.
With Chen Xu's release from prison, the attitudes of those guys who had drawn a clear line with the two of them made a 180-degree turn, and they came to visit and prepared generous gifts, and their attitudes were much more respectful than usual.
"A good wife is a reasonable person." Father Xue said.
"It's still my daughter who has vision." Father Zhu thought so.
After Chen Xu finished greeting Tian and Meng, he called Father Xue and Father Zhu aside alone, and said straight to the point, "Father-in-law," this father-in-law called Old Man Xue, looked at the old man of the Zhu family, and he was embarrassed to whisper to his father-in-law, "I am planning a deal to make a lot of money, I wonder if the two of you are interested in getting a piece of the pie?" ”
The court was worried about internal and external troubles, and reform was an urgent matter.
Chen Xu is not an expert in history, and he doesn't remember much about the ancient changes, but he also knows that all reformers have no good end, like Shang Ying, but those who encouraged cultivation and weaving, abolished the hereditary lineage of the nobility, and awarded medals according to military merit were strongly opposed by the entire aristocratic class, and finally got their wish and were divided by the five horses; There is also that Wang Anshi, thanks to his life in the Song Dynasty, otherwise it would never be as simple as two resignations.
Since drastic reforms do not work, Chen Xu can only "save the country by curve".
Politics can affect the economy, and who says that the economy can't affect politics in reverse? Although the status of the merchant has improved greatly, in the eyes of the scholars, commerce is still a cheap industry, and in this era when capitalism has already been embryonic, he is confident that business will become the main body of society.
When the commercial tax becomes the pillar of the state's finances, the agricultural tax will be greatly reduced, and there will be no onerous taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the people will not mortgage their land to the hereditary class, and the problem of land annexation will naturally not exist......
There is a proverb in the West that Rome was not built in a day, and this matter must be done step by step.
Chen Xu had already mentioned this issue in his letter to the emperor, and when Princess Sirou went south, Chen Xu knew that the emperor basically approved of it. You must know that Dayan's concubine is not allowed to be an official, and if he is not an official, is he not allowed to do business?
Since the Xue and Zhu families have been in a relationship with Chen Xu, the two families have already acted as agents for the sales rights of soap in the Jinling area, and they are making money every day, and they admire Chen Xu's ability to make money.
At this time, hearing Chen Xu's words, they were simply overjoyed.
"I'll talk to you in a few days." Chen Xu said......
"Yingying, you've been married for some days, why hasn't your stomach moved? You have to give birth to Lin'er as soon as possible, so that you can completely gain a firm foothold in the Chen family. ”
Mother Xue is also telling Yingying, she even wants to take her daughter to see a doctor-isn't Doctor Zhao living in the mansion? It's okay for a woman not to have children; Clinker, before Mother Xue finished speaking, Yingying's tears fell, of course, she couldn't tell her mother anyway, she is still a yellow flower girl.
Zhu's father saw Chen Xu and Sai Huatuo leave, and he inevitably had to ask his daughter a few words.
"Dou'er, you are about to enter the capital, in a big family like the Chen family, you can't be willful, talk less, do more, go to bed late and get up early, and be diligent in everything. If you feel homesick, write to your father, "pause," maybe it won't be long before your father will go to the capital to see you." ”
Dou'er already knew that her father had almost fallen out with several other houses in the clan for her, and now she was about to leave home, and she wanted to say a few words to her father but couldn't open her mouth, and when she heard Zhu's father's words at this moment, her eyes were not only red.
"Girl, Daddy... Daddy, I'm sorry you've been all these years... And your mother-in-law......"
“……”
The words are divided into two ends, one for each table.
Chen Xu and Saihuatuo rode fast horses, traveled lightly and simply, and left the Jinling boundary in a short time. At the entrance to a grove of trees, he saw a red sandalwood fairy leading a horse waiting for him.
"Phew!"
Chen Xu grabbed the reins of the horse, "I said, why didn't I see you today, when did you come here?" ”
Rosewood was silent, and she turned over and got on her horse.
"You... Are you going to Beijing too? ”
Zi Sandalwood shook his lips and said for a while, "I want to go to Beijing to make peace with my junior sister." ”
The three of them set off, the fairy took the lead, Sai Huatuo looked at the back of Zi Zhan, he couldn't help but say, "I said stinky boy, the old man sees that you are the nemesis of the fairy of the Hanging Temple, and this Zi Tan is estimated to be Mrs. Chen." ”
Chen Xu glanced at Sai Huatuo, "Lao Tzu is not a casual person. ”
The two teased each other, but they didn't know that the Rosewood Fairy was already in tears...... (To be continued......)
