Mrs. Xu naturally didn't believe in any demons, but there was one thing she couldn't figure out, before deciding to take Zeng Rong into Beijing in the countryside, she ordered someone to inquire, Zeng Rong only lived in the academy for more than two months, and lived by going up the mountain to collect medicine and embroider some silk handkerchiefs. After entering Beijing, Zeng Rong herself proposed to enter the embroidery workshop, at that time she was afraid that Zeng Rong's embroidery skills would not pass, and she did not want her to enter the splendid workshop, and wanted to find a small-scale embroidery workshop casually.

In order to please her, the Bai family took the initiative to solicit this errand, and what surprised her even more was that Zeng Rong not only had a good hand in embroidery, but also drew her own patterns, because of this, she was able to stand out in such a short period of time, and became famous in the capital in just half a year, and was finally promoted to the palace.

This is puzzling.

Reasoning, a woman who has never been to school can read and write, and it is very good to write a few simple strokes, but Zeng Rong not only writes well, but also paints with a good hand, plus embroidery with a good flower, these are not something that can be achieved overnight in a short period of time.

But if she had this ability, she would have been sold in the first place, why couldn't she even have enough to eat at home?

Xu Fushan solved his wife's confusion, saying that Ouyang Si was Zeng Rongqi's Meng, and Tanhualang's knowledge would not be bad.

Similarly, Mrs. Xu also solved her husband's confusion, the reason why Zeng Rong was able to marry Zhu Heng was due to the natural selection, which was calculated by the winter solstice sacrifice for them, and the tenth day of the fifth month was Zeng Rong's birthday.

As soon as he said this, Xu Fushan also remembered what happened on the day of the winter solstice, but after those rumors spread for a period of time, everyone saw that the royal family had not moved, so they gradually let go of the matter.

Now that he thinks about it carefully, Xu Fushan feels that the emperor is thinking deeply, such a big thing is actually hidden so tightly, and every step is so good, first burying the thread with a so-called heavenly chosen reason, and then using today's court to announce the matter, forcing everyone to agree, otherwise, it will be against the royal family again and again!

Seriously, Xu Fushan absolutely believes that as long as the emperor speaks, the so-called Heavenly Choice is too simple for the Si Zheng of Qin Tianjian.

It's just that Xu Fushan doesn't understand what is the emperor's reason for doing this, is it worth it to help his son marry a peasant girl so hard?

How could Zeng Rong receive such a great favor from the emperor?

The husband and wife discussed it for a long time and didn't figure it out, so Mrs. Xu couldn't wait to ask when she saw Zeng Rong.

But Zeng Rong herself can't say these questions, but there is one point, she definitely doesn't admit that the emperor cheated, because she didn't even know her own birthday, she asked her eldest brother temporarily, and before that, no one had come to inquire about this matter from their family.

"I think it's really the will of God, otherwise, the Queen Mother and the Emperor won't let go easily." Zeng Rong replied.

It was precisely because of this that she completely let go of her knot and waited for Zhu Heng.

This reason also persuaded Mrs. Xu very well, "That's good, if that's the case, it's great." Remember, in the future, if there is any difficulty, don't hide it from us, but as long as we can do our part, we will never go back. ”

The old man is also a transparent person, with the relationship between Zeng Rong and the Xu family, the Xu family will have to stand in line if they don't stand in line in the future.

But this is exactly what Zeng Rong is afraid of.

In the last life, the Xu family also tried their best to support the queen, but the imperial concubine took the lead, in this life, no one dares to predict what the result will be, if Zhu Heng is on the throne, it would be better, but if Zhu Wu or Zhu Shen is on the throne, I am afraid that the Xu family will still be unable to escape the doom of the previous life.

Going around and around, things are back to square one, even more dangerous than in the previous life, because in this life, Zeng Rong and Zhu Heng were directly coerced into the center of the vortex, offending Queen Wang and the imperial concubine at the same time, and there were even black hands waiting for the opportunity behind them.

This game, at present, can only be broken by Zhu Heng's upper position.

It's not that Zeng Rong doesn't want to cut her relationship with the Xu family, but it's too late, and cutting it is useless.

And the Qian family, too.

Ah Rong thanked the old lady first. I'm sorry, Ah Rong caused trouble to the old lady and Lord Xu, and asked the old lady to believe that this was definitely not Ah Rong's intention. Zeng Rong took a few steps away and kowtowed to the other party again.

"Son, get up quickly, as you yourself say, this is the will of God, and since it is the will of God, we will obey each other." Mrs. Xu picked up Zeng Rong and hugged her tightly.

Zeng Rong could think of this, and Lord Xu and Mrs. Xu could naturally think of it, if Xu Fushan had thought about avoiding his relationship with Zeng Rong before, but the controversy in the court that day completely made him stop this idea.

The left and right also have to bear this reputation, and since the retreat is exhausted, they can only move forward to meet it.

But having said that, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but be a little worried that Zeng Rong was young, unable to gain insight into the danger behind these scenes, and even unable to understand the courage and helplessness of the Xu family when they made this decision.

Therefore, Zeng Rong's kowtow can be regarded as completely soothing Mrs. Xu's unwillingness and injustice.

Next, Mrs. Xu suggested to Zeng Rong that she should move out of the palace immediately after getting married, which is the old rule in the palace, and she is afraid that the queen mother will keep Zhu Heng as Zhu Heng's crippled leg and the eldest son of the emperor.

Reasoning, Zhu Heng's failure to move out of the palace is indeed conducive to them to grasp the dynamics of the palace, but Zhu Heng's treatment has reached the most critical time, Ouyang Si said that the next treatment is too big, and if you live in the palace again, sooner or later it will be exposed.

Besides, there is another advantage of moving out, temporarily staying away from the center of the whirlpool, so that the two families mistakenly think that Zhu Heng has withdrawn from the fight, and it is just time to settle down to receive treatment and rehabilitation.

While the two were talking, the maid at the door reported that the Bai family was coming, and although Mrs. Xu guessed where the daughter-in-law came from, she couldn't help but let her in.

Sure enough, the Bai family came to show favor to Zeng Rong, and she also knew that Zeng Rong's family would definitely not be able to afford a decent dowry, so she promised to give Zeng Rong a complete set of bedding and a set of various screens.

"Thank you, Second Wife, Ah Rong...

Zeng Rong was about to refuse, but saw Mrs. Xu take the words, "Just follow her, this is a great joy, and our Xu family will also make up a few dowries for you." ”

"This can't be helped, Ah Rong... Zeng Rong waved his hand when he heard this.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, she was afraid that the Xu family would break the bank, so she specially informed Mrs. Xu of Zhu Heng's request for Mrs. Qian to prepare a dowry, but the old man still prepared in this regard.

Zeng Rong knew that the Xu family's family background was stronger than ordinary people's, but it was still a little thin compared to those families that had been in business for several generations, otherwise, the Xu family would not let the Bai family enter the door, in order to lay a solid foundation for the Xu family.
