"Second prince?!" Wang Xi was taken aback.

Chang Ke nodded and said, "It's him." The last time I saw him was when Sister Yu next door came out of the cabinet, and it was impossible to admit his mistake. ”

Wang Xi's head was bowed.

Chang Ke once said that Chen Luo once took the second prince over the wall when he was young, and now it is not uncommon for the two of them to appear together. But the two of them came to find Dr. Feng together, which is a bit subtle!

Wang Xi pondered carefully what her father had told her when she came.

Today's emperor is neither a concubine nor a long, the biological mother has a very low rank, and when he became an adult, he married the daughter of a thousand households in the royal guard, no matter how you look at it, he is a very ordinary prince.

The turning point came after the death of his wife, who had a difficult birth.

At that time, the queen Bo did not have a biological son, and the first emperor wanted to appoint the nine princes born to the favored concubine Wang as the crown prince, and tried every possible way to record the nine princes in the name of Empress Bo. Empress Bo couldn't refuse, and proposed to let the Nine Emperor Princes marry her maiden niece as the concubine. The first emperor agreed, but the Wang family didn't know which tendon was wrong, not only was he unwilling, but he also had to let the Nine Emperors marry his niece as a concubine.

Or he was pampered in the palace, and the Nine Emperors didn't think much about it at the time, listened to his biological mother's words, and married his cousin as a concubine.

What happened after that, don't say that the people of the Wang family can't inquire, that is, most of the people in the palace probably don't know, Queen Bo persuaded the first emperor to record the current emperor in her name, and was made the crown prince, and later remarried the daughter of the Bo family as the crown princess and gave birth to the second prince.

If this trajectory is followed, the first emperor will be mourned, the current emperor will succeed to the throne, the crown princess Bo will be made the queen, the emperor's deceased original wife will be canonized as a concubine, the first queen Bo will be respected as the queen mother, and then there will be the support of the two queens' maiden Qingyun Marquis, and the second prince will be established as the crown prince, everything will be happy.

But things are always unexpected.

After the first emperor's funeral, the current emperor succeeded to the throne, the crown princess Bo was made the queen, the original match was canonized as a concubine, the first queen Bo was respected as the queen mother, with the support of the Qingyun Marquis, the second prince should have been set up as the crown prince, but now the emperor has changed.

He first excused himself that the first emperor had just died, and the second prince was still young, so he would not set up a prince for the time being.

After a few years, the second prince stood healthy and healthy, but the Empress Dowager Bo went to the west, and the Qingyun Marquis Mansion mentioned the matter of the crown prince again, and the emperor began to be discouraged.

After a few years, the emperor ruled martial arts, the world was peaceful, Haiqinghe feasted, and his prestige was flourishing, and the people of Qingyun Marquis Mansion did not speak so eloquently in front of the emperor.

The emperor didn't send such an excerpt, and the queen mother looked wrong, so she asked the current Qingyunhou, that is, the queen's brother, to discuss, Qingyunhou had to say a few words for his nephew. The emperor giggled, neither scolded Qingyun Hou for interfering in the affairs of the prince, nor did he clearly express who he wanted to appoint as the prince.

Later, when he asked in a hurry, the emperor lost his temper in the Jinluan Palace, and asked the courtiers and Qingyun Hou again and again if they thought he couldn't be the emperor for a few years and wanted to force the palace.

Who would dare to take this?

The hall was full of courtiers who knelt and pleaded guilty.

The matter of Lichu was gradually put down, and no one mentioned it again.

But whether it is the Qingyun Marquis Mansion or the current queen, she is so anxious. I don't know what the emperor really meant. It is said that in order to please the emperor's tone, I hope that at the critical time, someone can make the first emperor change his mind like the Empress Dowager Bo, the empress not only treats the emperor's only sister Princess Baoqing very politely, but also attaches great importance to the wives of several cabinet scholars in the court.

It can be seen that there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hatred for no reason.

Because Chen Luo is favored by the emperor, he can be with the prince as his companion, and he can enter and exit the palace more freely than the prince, which should have a lot to do with this!

Wang Xi pondered in his heart, seeing that Lord Feng had not come back yet, he was the main guest, and beckoned Chang Ke to sit down in the hall, and Wang Xi, who had followed him, instructed the little servants in the shop to pour tea and water for them.

It's just that as soon as they sat down, Dr. Feng came back.

"Grandpa Feng!" Wang Xi ran towards Dr. Feng happily like a bird, "I didn't bother you, did I?" I knew you had a distinguished guest, so I should have asked Wang Xi to take a look in advance. I wanted to surprise you! ”

Doctor Feng looked at Wang Xi with a smile, and said "It's not in the way" with a loving face, then touched her head, glanced at Chang Ke with a smile, and said, "Is this your new good sister?" She looks like a quiet and elegant girl! ”

Chang Ke had already stood up when Dr. Feng came in, and when she heard Dr. Feng say this, she suddenly blushed with shame, and shouted "Grandpa Feng" embarrassedly.

Dr. Feng greeted Chang Ke with a smile and a kind and lovely attitude.

Wang Xi stepped forward to help Dr. Feng, invited him to the upper seat and sat down, and introduced Chang Ke in a chattering voice: "She is the cousin of the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion, three months older than me. Five at home, and I'm fine. Let's go to Yun Xiangrong to make clothes today, Yun Xiangrong gave us a sachet, saying that it was made by a master named Chaoyun in Dajue Temple, and he was also known as 'the first person to make incense in Beijing'! But I don't think he can mix as well as you. Isn't this about to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival? I thought about asking you to mix a few sachets for me. ”

As she spoke, she embarrassedly pulled Dr. Feng's sleeve and shook it coquettishly: "It's just that I came in a hurry today, and I didn't buy anything to honor you, so I invite you to go to Sijimei to eat crystal elbows today." I've heard that crystal elbow is their signature dish, and I haven't eaten it yet. We're going to try it today. ”

Dr. Feng is one of the people who knows her temperament best. Wen Yan pinched her nose and teased: "I think you must have come to me temporarily, and you are ready to take this opportunity to rub me!" ”

Wang Xi and Dr. Feng had hippie smiles, and they also gave a thumbs up to Dr. Feng, and said, "How can my little monkey not escape from your five-fingered mountain, you are still amazing!" ”

"That's it!" Doctor Feng laughed, and his joy overflowed his eyebrows.

Chang Ke was dumbfounded, thinking that Wang Xi could simply eat a delicious meal like this. Who knew that Dr. Feng's face remained unchanged, but his words changed, and he said: "You have been mixing incense with me for so many years, didn't you say last time that you don't need to learn, and you have already become a teacher?" Famous teachers produce high apprentices, and the incense you are mixing now must be better than mine. If there is something for the disciple to do his work, I won't do it myself, how many sachets do you want, you can adjust it yourself. For the festival of the Dragon Boat Festival, remember to add me a few sachets that you made yourself.

"Speaking of crystal elbows, although I also like to eat as much as you, but I am now old, and your little brother Gao didn't let me eat it a few years ago, I'm afraid that I will go to the Four Seasons Beauty, and I drool when I watch you eat. I'm not going. I can only eat the pickles of Liuweiyuan now, and if you have time, you can buy a few jars of their pickles to honor me. ”

I didn't get this sachet, I didn't eat the crystal elbow, and the pickles and homemade sachets of the Six Flavor Garden were pasted upside down.

Wang Xi didn't expect that after a few years, Dr. Feng would joke with her like this.

Chen Luo is not the Chen Luo that Chang Ke said, isn't Dr. Feng the Dr. Feng she knows?

She really wanted to pluck a few of Dr. Feng's beards to see if Dr. Feng was real.

Chang Ke saw that Wang Xi hadn't come back to his senses for a long time, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Her smile woke up Wang Xi and made Dr. Feng feel funny.

He touched Wang Xi's head again and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" I'm having dinner in the shop today, the master in my shop is very good at making Huaiyang dishes, you must like it. ”

As long as it's food, there's nothing Wang Xi doesn't like.

What's more, Dr. Feng, like her grandfather, is a glutton, if he says it's delicious, it's definitely delicious.

She agreed, patted her chest and said, "I'm so scared that my soul is gone." If I go to Sijimei and Grandpa Feng suddenly says that I didn't bring any money, then I will lose a lot. ”

Everyone laughed.

Wang Xi told Dr. Feng that she had brought baked cakes: "Can you taste it?" But it's certainly not as delicious as freshly baked. However, the place where the baked cakes are sold is not far from you, so I asked Wang Xi to tell Brother Xiao Gao the place. ”

Brother Xiaogao's name is Feng Gao, an orphan adopted by Dr. Feng, and an apprentice of Dr. Feng, who had followed Dr. Feng in the Wang family before Wang Xi was born, and to Wang Xi, she was like her brother.

Doctor Feng smiled: "Is it the baked cake shop in that alley?" Their baked cakes are really good. ”

Wang Xi grinned embarrassedly and said, "I forgot that you have been in the capital for two or three years, you may not know where to buy lixicorice, and you must know where to buy delicious food." ”

"You little girl!" Doctor Feng flicked Wang Xi's forehead and asked her to show him the sachet, "What's wrong with people?" “

Wang Xi pouted and said, "I don't eat as well as you and my grandfather, but if it is this fragrant powder rouge, you and my grandfather are definitely not as good as me." ”

Mrs. Feng looked at her indulgently and smiled.

She took advantage of Bai Zhi's efforts to get the sachet and talked to Dr. Feng about Feng Ji's fabric: "What kind of material can't be woven of mulberry silk?" It can only be said that their family can't receive so much mulberry silk, and it is difficult to gain a foothold in Jiangnan weaving. In this way, he sells a novelty and coaxes those who don't know how to do it. After a long time, it may not work. However, the price of this fabric is definitely cheaper than that of pure mulberry silk. Didn't my eldest brother say that Yungui and Tufan's toast think that our fabrics are too expensive? I think I can talk to my eldest brother and ask my eldest brother to send someone to talk to the people of the Feng family. ”

The ancestors of the Wang family have been based in Shuzhong for generations, and the silk in Shu is not as good as that in the south of the Yangtze River, and their family has always been doing business in the northwest and southwest, and the silk merchants in the south of the Yangtze River are not deep, and the silk business on the ancient tea horse road has always been unable to compete with the big cloth merchants in Guangdong and Fujian. If the Feng family has a hard time in Jiangnan as Wang Xi said, the two families may be able to find a mutually beneficial way by joining forces.

Dr. Feng immediately understood.

He couldn't help but touch Wang Xi's head again, and said with a smile: "Your grandfather said that you are a golden pimple, you are really a golden pimple, just to make a dress, you won't find a new way for your family to do business, right?" ”

Wang Xi and Doctor Feng were poor: "Don't you and your grandfather often say that 'everything in the world is clear and knowledge'?" I'm also a good person, right? ”

"Count, count, count!" Dr. Feng naturally hoped that the Wang family's business would get better and bigger, and happily praised Wang Xi.

Only then did Wang Xi throw out the question she wanted to ask when she entered the door: "Why did Chen Luo, the second prince of the Zhenguo Mansion, and the second prince come to you?" ”
