Chapter 221: Ambition

Qi sighed softly and longly, looking at the coffee table in front of him, his eyes were blank.

After pondering for a while, she said slowly: "Although A-Niang does not have the blessing to witness the appearance of the first saint, but he is so fond of Ning'er, A-Niang is grateful to him from the bottom of her heart, I think it is also our mother and daughter who deserve to be miserable, you and the first saint have just met a few times, and he drove the crane west, which is really sad, if Ning'er wants to cry, cry, with A-Niang, A-Niang will not let my Ning'er be wronged in the future." ”

"Auntie."

Suning'er called softly, leaned over and leaned into her arms, and whispered:

"The saint gave up his life in order to realize the grand wish in his heart, Ning'er is proud to have such a great brother, Ning'er is not sad, Ning'er also knows that A-Niang and Uncle were scared for Ning'er all night last night, but there are things in the palace that people like us can ask about, but Ning'er can tell A-Niang that we will get better and better in the future, and there will be no more things like yesterday."

Qi wanted to comfort her, but he didn't expect his daughter to be so strong, and he broke off his mind that he wanted to ask her in detail.

Fortunately, she is not as fragile as she thought, so she is much more relieved.

Qi Shi looked at each other with warm eyes, and said with a slight smile: "If Ning'er can think like this, A-Niang's heart will feel much better." ”

After a pause, an uneasy look appeared on her face again: "It's your relationship with King Qingfu, the matter of the Cui family's father and son was delayed for so long last year, and Concubine Qin has never been very happy with you marrying her, and now that the saint has died, I'm afraid she will resign even more." ”

Suning'er is now becoming more and more disheartened about the family affairs of King Qing's Mansion, if she didn't think about King Qing, she really wanted to go to the door in person to withdraw her relatives, but the saint's marriage is not a matter after all.

She had no choice but not to think about these troublesome things, and said to the Qi family: "His Royal Highness King Yingwang entered the palace today, and was regarded as the emperor's younger brother, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and it is only a matter of these two days if you want to ascend the throne, Lieutenant Wen passed on the message of the new saint, and will continue to obey Ning'er as the eldest princess of Junning, and also make up the food, and he will also make up for Ning'er's family affairs with Qingwangfu." ”

"Really?" , Qi Shi's face flushed red with joy: "In this way, Ning'er, haven't you become a veritable princess, that's ten thousand households, with such a real seal, I think that Concubine Qin will have to look at you differently." ”

When the first saint canonized her as a princess, except for the title and some additional rewards, he did not increase the number of foods.

Now that she has a food eup, she can indeed be regarded as a household with King Qing's Mansion, with 10,000 households in the food eup, and there should be hundreds of households in the actual seal.

Although many of the princess's food estates in the past dynasties were only nominally sealed, since King Ying deliberately sent an oracle to add food for himself, it would definitely not be an empty word.

It's just that Suning'er subconsciously felt that Concubine Qin didn't want to marry into the Qingwang Mansion by herself, and her worries were not because of this reason.

Looking at Qi's relieved expression, Suning'er couldn't sweep away her interest, and said with a faint smile: "Now that Ning'er has a food estate, A-Niang doesn't have to work too hard in the future, so she can live a relaxed life for a few years." ”

"Then what is it", Qi pouted disapprenorovingly:

"Ning'er, although you are canonized as a princess, but you are not Shengrao's sister after all, and I don't know how much I can give to the actual household registration and Yongye Tian, and the current court is not rich, I heard that the people in many places of your second uncle are living very hard, if the place that is sealed to you is too barren, I am afraid that the taxes that can be collected in a year are not much, our Su family is thriving day by day, your aunt is always sick now, and your thirteenth uncle is not in shape, and the whole house is maintained by your second uncle alone, it is really hard, A-Niang still has to do her best to help your second uncle. ”

After thinking about it, she added: "It's better to wait for Ah Xiang and Ah Que sisters and brothers to be able to take on this family business, and Ah Niang will think about the matter of recuperation." ”

She said this, Suning'er also quite agreed, there are not many princesses who have been forced by the past dynasties, how can a canonized civilian princess like her expect to be compared with the most favored princess in the royal family.

Now she is very satisfied.

When it comes to the Su family's business, Suninger is always uneasy in her heart.

What Wen Jiqing discussed with Su Jing before, she still doesn't know what it is.

The eunuch was willing to let himself go, and I think that was also a factor.

After this palace change, in a short period of time, Wen Jiqing's power in the court is naturally like the sun, and he will definitely seize this opportunity to make money like the Tian brothers.

Suning'er was really worried that Su Jing would agree to be his spokesperson for collecting money outside, so that the Su family would be no different from the Tao family.

She stared at Qi Shi with a somewhat anxious expression, and said, "Ah Niang, a few days ago, Lieutenant Wen came to the house to talk about something with the second uncle in the house, has the second uncle explained anything to Ah Niang?" ”

Qi shook his head blankly: "I heard Qingchun mention this matter yesterday, your second uncle has always been measured in his work, and I think it's just a matter of imperial porcelain in the palace and Yima silk this year." ”

Seeing the tone of Qi's answer, Su Ning'er was not sure, and her heart was even more uneasy.

Qi smiled stiffly: "In fact, no matter who is in power among those nobles in the Northern Ya, what they seek is nothing more than money, in previous years, your second uncle did not go to the Tian brothers, and now Lieutenant Wen is in charge of the big things in the palace, and the sage has handed over many envoys in the palace to our Su family, which is nothing more than giving more money." ”

"Doing things for the court is a matter within the scope of their inner servants, how can they use this for personal gain, Auntie, you still have to persuade the second uncle, don't get too close to the people in Beiya", Su Ning'er persuaded, and said worriedly:

"The Tian brothers have amassed a lot of money over the years, and the houses and fields they have purchased in Chang'an City and their hometown are more solid than those of the Tao family, which shows that the means of collecting money are unusual, and there are rumors in the market that the human trafficking cases that have been repeatedly banned over the years are also inseparable from Beiya, and the second uncle should not fall into such an unforgiving affair."

"How could your second uncle do such an unreasonable thing", Qi Shi was a little dissatisfied when he heard her like this, and accused: "Ning'er, your second uncle is your elder anyway, you can't suspect him like this." ”

"A-Niang, this is just Ning'er's guess", Suning'er replied: "I'm not trying to be suspicious of the second uncle, I'm just a little worried, the current situation of the imperial court, it's better to be safer, our family's business is not behind, even if we leave the envoy in the palace, now that the sea route is picking up, it is good for us to trade more with Hu Shang." ”

"The Su family can have such a situation today, A-Niang is very content", Qi pursed his lips and smiled: "It's your second uncle, but it's okay, he can have some ambitions, and he will eventually live up to his manly spirit, as long as he is safe, there will be no chaos in the future." ”

Qi's thoughts, Suning'er really can't agree with them, after all, they are not people of the same era.

Ancient women originally respected the concept of "obeying the father at home, marrying from the husband, and the husband from the son", and the world of men has always been like this, and they always feel unworthy of being a man without ambition.

In order to achieve the goal, they often use a variety of means.

She didn't want to stop Su Jing from realizing his life's ambitions, she just hoped that her second uncle would not be distracted by interests and power and go astray.

Wen Jiqing can become a one-handed figure in a court with such a cruel and harsh environment, and he is naturally a ruthless master who is scheming, how can he fight him with Su Jing's resourcefulness.
