It's a pity that Zeng Rong didn't meet the two of them again after going around the apse, so he had to return in a daze.

In return, Zeng Rong, who returned to the city, invited the three Tao sisters to eat a bowl of wontons, during which Zeng Rong inquired about the Bai family.

In the previous life, she only knew that the Bai family's maiden ancestor was an imperial businessman, and the Bai family's generation was the fourth generation, so strictly speaking, the Bai family's roots in the capital were much deeper than the Xu family, not to mention the wealth that the Bai family had accumulated over the years.

This is also the support that the Bai family can marry into the Xu family, and it is also the confidence that the Bai family has been competing with the Yang family all these years.

What about the daughter of a merchant, and what about the daughter of the son of the country, who is the priest of wine, after all, life is inseparable from those yellow and white things.

It is rumored that the reason why Xu Jing was able to marry Wang Chuchu was also to borrow some of the light of the Bai family, you know, Wang Chuchu is the daughter of the Wang family of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and her aunt is the current queen.

Of course, the biggest reason for this is Xu Fushan, Xu Fushan was the first assistant of the cabinet at that time, and he must have more say than ordinary people on the issue of establishing the prince, and Xu Jing himself is also brilliant, showing talent in the year of bundling hair, three years later, and being named as a flower in the next year, such a person should have a bright future, and it is not uncommon for him to be favored by the queen and the Wang family.

According to Xu Jing, before he got married, his grandfather had no intention of standing in line, but there was no way, the queen personally protected the media, and Xu Jing had to marry Wang Chuchu, so that the team had to stand if it didn't stand.

may be because of the large expenses in the palace, coupled with the fighting method between the queen and the imperial concubine, it is more necessary to pay for silver, therefore, Zeng Rong knew that the queen had interfered in a lot of the Bai family's business in the name of Wang Chuchu, and the Bai family also hoped that the queen's son would win at the beginning, so they could only admit this loss.

But what I didn't expect was that the queen actually lost, the son of the imperial concubine won that position, and the Bai family finally ended up with the imperial merchant being seized and the family property confiscated.

These are Zeng Rong's previous understanding of the Bai family, strictly speaking, this is the situation of the Bai family after more than ten years, and it should be a little different from the current Bai family, because according to A Tao, the current head of the Bai family is the father of the Bai family, not the eldest brother of the Bai family more than ten years later.

It's a pity that Ah Tao doesn't know much about the Bai family, but he talked about no less than Yunqing, that is, the shopkeeper.

In Ah Tao's description, this is not simple in Yunqing, at the age of five entered the Bai family's women's school, followed the Bai family ladies to enlighten, and also began to learn embroidery, at the age of fifteen into the Splendid Workshop, with her mother to learn to take care of the Splendid Workshop, at the age of twenty to take over the Splendid Workshop, it has been ten years.

In the past ten years, the business of Jinxiufang has expanded a lot, which is located in Yunqing not only has a deep relationship with those female relatives of the family, but also has a good relationship with the palace.

Don't underestimate these customized jobs, the benefits brought to the Bai family every year are not small, so they are treated differently by the Bai family, and the shopkeeper also won the right to speak in the Splendid Workshop.

"Then how did she get on good terms with the palace?" Zeng Rong was very interested in this.

As for the previous sentence and those ladies of the family have a deep relationship, she doesn't believe it, the so-called deep is only the surface of harmony, those ladies of the family will not set their sights on a businessman, no, a shopkeeper, not even a real businessman.

Maybe it's not easy to make friends with the housekeeper and father-in-law in the palace, it's not something that can be done by saying a few good words or giving a little favor, there must be something special that impresses the other party.

"I don't know the specific details, I heard that the shopkeeper sent an embroidery to Gonggong Liu, and Gonggong Liu won the favor of the Queen Mother with this embroidery, and the Queen Mother rewarded Gonggong Liu with a good errand, and in return, Gonggong Liu handed over a lot of work to the shopkeeper."

Zeng Rong was even more excited when he heard this, but unfortunately, Ah Tao didn't know what kind of embroidery it was, but she knew a little bit, since then, this Yu Yunqing has been more enthusiastic about going to the south of the Yangtze River, once a year, in addition to hiring new embroiderers, she will also collect some novel, elegant and chic embroidery back.

After going back that night, Zeng Rong had a vague plan in his heart, the Queen Mother's birthday is in March, and there are still ten months to go, whether she can also ponder and see if she can also come up with an embroidery that amazes her, if she can impress the Queen Mother, she can naturally impress that Liu Gonggong.

But what should she do next?

entered the palace as a palace maid, and then slowly climbed up by relying on her own talents, and strived to be the aunt in charge, if she could be the aunt in charge of the queen mother, maybe she would be able to keep Xu Jing.

But is this road easy to follow?

As soon as she entered the palace, she completely broke off her thoughts about Xu Jing, and it was impossible for her to be released before the age of twenty-five, and at that time, Xu Jing had already married a wife and had children.

But then again, even if she doesn't enter the palace, she has no possibility of marrying Xu Jing in this life.

This thought should have been broken a long time ago, and she wanted to live a new life, all she wanted was Xu Jing's peace and joy, as for who was standing next to him, as far as she was concerned, as long as it wasn't Wang Chuchu, anyone could.

By the way, Wang Chuchu, her other goal, if she doesn't enter the palace, why should she ask her to repay the grudges of the previous life?

Of course, she also knows that if she can really enter the palace, there are many uncertainties, first of all, she is not sure that she can win the favor of the queen mother and be able to achieve the position of the aunt in charge.

But this should at least be more reliable and faster than the path she chose before, right?

You must know that with her current ability, I am afraid that in another ten years, she may not be able to save the principal of her own embroidery workshop, let alone make friends with those daughters of the family.

Taking a step back, even if she does this ten years later, who can guarantee that she can help Xu Jing?

Compared with the two, Zeng Rong still wants to be a palace maid.

Because there is another advantage to being a palace maid, if you are lucky, you may be able to be admitted to a palace maid or something, if you become a palace maid next to the emperor, and then use the prophet of her previous life, maybe she can break the deadlock between the queen and the imperial concubine.

The more Zeng Rong thought about it, the more excited she became, but when she went home and saw those zongzi and salt duck eggs sent by the Xu family, her mind cleared up.

Her current identity is a small peasant girl, a small peasant girl brought into the capital by the Xu family, and the Xu family must not be willing to let her enter the palace, after all, Xu Fushan's identity is too sensitive, and it is easy for people to misunderstand what his intentions are.

But aside from the Xu family, who can help her enter the palace?

Also, after entering the palace, who dares to guarantee that she will survive, instead of becoming a pawn in the competition for the interests of all parties and being crushed early?
