Chapter 681: Passing Years 1

Time flies, like a shuttle. In the blink of an eye, two springs, summers, autumns and winters.

In the past two years, compared with the turbulent waves of the first two years, it seems to be somewhat calm. The biggest change is that the two of them have fireworks in their days - although they will still talk about the arrangement of troops from the major events of the court, from the detailed discussion of poetry and scripts to sitting on Jia and doing business, they will also be like ordinary couples, firewood, rice, oil and salt, gambling books and pouring tea.

In the past two years, Su Muyu and Qu Xiaoxiang, the two happy enemies, have had a good time, and they come to Rongwang's Mansion every once in a while to find Lin Ruo and Murong Chong to comment, although they are noisy, their feelings are also good;

After Xijiao and Luo Zhe got married, they became a pair of upstarts who were envied by the ladies and ladies in Beijing, and now Xijiao is six months pregnant, and Jiajiao and Yan Shou, who were originally envious and jealous, because of the death of their two children one after another, quarrel every day and drift apart;

Lin Ruo's uncle, An Taibo Lin Qian, under the witness of Lin Ruo and Lin Qi, remarried Yun Niang, but out of respect for the deceased original wife, and also considering Yun Niang's efforts over the years, Yun Niang's identity is a noble concubine, not Mrs. An Taibo, and Yun Niang herself does not care about these false names;

And Li Yan, under Lin Ruo's matchmaking, asked for Li Xien's consent, and Hu Yunqiu came together, Lin Qian was in charge, and bought the house next to the Lin Mansion, as the Li Mansion, the side door was opened between the two mansions, which was convenient for Lin Qi and Li Xien to visit the door, so that it seemed that the neighbor on the other side, the Jingping Marquis Mansion, occupied a much smaller area.

Let's talk about the three girls around Lin Ruo: Youcao, Zhuxuan and Yunzhi. Under Lu Ming's constant brazenness, and an unexpected hero to save the beauty, Youcao finally agreed to Lu Ming's courtship, but Lu Ming found that Youcao's family assets were so rich after marrying, and he was sad for two days, and then he continued to play his shamelessness and became a "door-to-door son-in-law" without shame; Zhu Xuan and Yun Yi, the shopkeeper of the grain shop who often came to King Rong's mansion, fell in love for a long time, and also got married a year ago and became the wife of the shopkeeper of the Lin family's grain shop, but she refused Lin Ruo's kindness, and after getting married, she still returned to King Rong's mansion and became the daughter-in-law of the housekeeper by Lin Ruo's side, and Lin Ruo also let her; The most unexpected thing for Lin Ruo was Yun Zhi and Luo Er, these two people who are completely different in all aspects, actually came together, thinking that at the beginning, Luo Er also designed to use Yun Zhi to smear Yun Yi's person, but now the two who are-for-tat have become in-laws, in addition to sighing that God will make people, what else can be done?

Of course, then again, Lin Ruo asked Luo Er to follow Yun Yi to learn skills in the grain shop, and Yun Zhi often went to the grain shop to deliver food and clothes to his brother.

The three girls are all married, but they all choose to continue to stay by Lin Ruo's side and wait, Lin Ruo gives them some guidance from time to time on how to manage the house and how to settle accounts, which is also quite interesting in life.

This year, is the third year of the trial implementation of the Qingmiao Law in the south of the Yangtze River, the peasants were originally suspected of collusion between officials and businessmen, and unscrupulous means for the sake of profit, but in fact, under the thunderous means of Zhang Xu, the envoy of Jianghuai, the Qingmiao Division adhered to the word "letter", coupled with the granary grain road network built by Luo Sheng and Lin Ruo in advance, the price of grain collection was very fair, and the price of grain was very fair, and the "grain was collected at a fair price when the grain is cheap in a bumper harvest, and the grain is sold at a fair price in a famine year", which played an extremely important role in curbing grain prices and preventing profiteers from speculating and dumping grain during the disaster period. At this point, Zhang Xu played it to the emperor in every detail, and Emperor Mingzong was even more satisfied with Lin Ruo and the Lin family.

Lin Ruo entrusted the sea ship built by the Jinling royal family to launch, and did two trial voyages along the planned voyage, respectively to the south and north, to Liuqiu and Dongying, and gained a lot of money. In addition to negotiating the supply of the boat, according to Lin Ruo's instructions, he used the exquisite cloth, tea and grain in the south of the Yangtze River to buy the land and forests of Iwami's land for hundreds of miles. At first, not only were the second monk of the Jinling royal family confused, but Li Yan was also confused. It wasn't until the eldest son Wang Tuo, who was in charge of this matter, came to the news that a silver ore vein had been found in Iwami, and that this silver ore vein would not be mined for decades, that the Wang family, the Li family, and even the Lin family were stunned. After the surprise, Wang Tuo meticulously followed Lin Ruo's instructions, found the locals to cut wood and open the mine, and at the same time concealed the news and sent the ore back to Jinling for smelting. At the same time, according to the chosen route, the fleet that went to the New World in search of wealth became more and more confident!

Of course, under the flowers, there are also many undercurrents and fly in the ointment. King Ning did not become a big problem with heavy troops as expected, and King Yu went to the northern army to experience no big splash, but the resurgence of King Ye echoed with Concubine Xing's adopted son, King Xuan, the seventh prince, and the momentum was unstoppable.

For Lin Ruo, there has been no good news, which is one of the most regrettable, and secondly, it is to watch the body of his relatives deteriorate day by day.

The queen mother is getting older, her health is getting worse and worse, and the medicine does not leave her body; Lin Qian's body was also gradually showing his depravity, even if Lin Ruo left the two famous ghost doctors and poison doctors in the Lin Mansion to recuperate Lin Qian's body, he became more and more lacking. Lin Qi was gradually able to take responsibility, which was the most gratifying thing for Lin Qian, and he gradually knew that the barley tea that Lin Ruo personally prepared was a medicinal tea for him, and he didn't care that Lin Ruo colluded with Zhong Ping and Yun Niang to hide it from him. With such a niece who took the trouble to think about him, and a son who was gradually coming into being, he was already very content. Even if time is short, you can calmly let go.

On this day, the sun is bright and not dazzling, because of the pavilions and trees, sparsely sprinkled on the ground, it looks extraordinarily cool, and even the air exudes an extraordinarily fresh atmosphere. If it weren't for the yellowing of the leaves, it might be hard to realize that it was autumn again.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Queen Mother began to be bedridden, and her mind began to be confused. The queen mother is always around people, and the mothers of each palace and the relatives of the emperor and the country began to take turns to enter the palace to serve the sick.

The imperial doctors used all kinds of precious medicinal materials to do their best to continue the life of the queen mother, but after all, the destiny of heaven could not be violated.

On the third day of October, the Queen Mother suddenly woke up, and she was in good spirits. But this also means that the time limit of the Queen Mother is coming - this is the last return to the light.

The Empress Dowager is the daughter of the Qu family and the legend of the entire Donglu. When she was not married, she followed her father and brother to see the battlefield; After marrying into the palace, she ascended to the position of queen all the way, and accompanied the emperor through many difficulties, large and small; The first emperor died, she blessed her son to ascend to the throne, although she retired to the harem, she was still able to give the emperor and courtiers guidance. She has been decisive and far-sighted all her life, but she also devoted herself to the Buddha and ate vegetarian food.

In the last moments of this old lady who is a legend herself, the descendants of the royal family, the younger generations of the Qu family and their families, as well as the palace maids who are waiting, knelt densely in the Zhaoming Palace, waiting for the old lady's final summons.

Lin Ruo's eyes were red, a little tears overflowed in his eyes, he hung his head slightly, and knelt motionless beside Murong Chong.

A chamberlain came out of it, lowered his eyebrows, and said loudly: "The Queen Mother summoned Princess Rong and the county lord of Fengyang." "Hundred Plating" The latest chapter of "Female Businesswoman Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
