The Chinese New Year is a day of family reunion in everyone's hearts, people from the south to the north as long as they can go back will go home, every year in Beijing during the New Year's Festival, there will be fewer people, those who come to Beijing to work, do business Most of them have returned to their hometowns, leaving only some people who are too far to go back to linger on the streets, but this year's people in Beijing do not seem to have decreased, perhaps related to Bai Ziyu's opening of business and too many people to live.

Zhang Sangongzi, who was sent by Bai Ziyu to repair the river, also returned to Beijing, but he did not return to Zhang's house, but lived in the Ghost King's Mansion. reported to Bai Ziyu the progress of the lower river repair, and later the two talked about what Zhang Sangongzi had seen and heard along the way, and Zhang Sangongzi said something, which attracted Bai Ziyu's attention.

On the way back to Beijing, Zhang Sangongzi met some people in the rivers and lakes, who were dressed in ordinary people's cloth clothes and hid their whereabouts and rushed in the direction of the capital. It's just that these people are not ordinary people after all, and they spend a lot of money, and they can still see one or two from their words and deeds. Zhang Sangongzi was also careful, and let people follow them for a while, and found that these people were just rushing into Beijing, but they did not harass the people, or deliberately caused trouble, and later went with them.

Bai Ziyu felt that it was a little unusual, since Yun Yuhong was in Beijing, there were fewer people in the rivers and lakes who entered Beijing, especially those characters on the underworld who hid farther away. No way, the ghost king is not only strong in martial arts, but the ghost king also likes black and eats black. However, some people from the righteous sect did not suffer much from entering Beijing, and they came to Kyoto very generously, and they were also at peace with the government. These people are sneaky, they shouldn't be disciples of the Righteous Path Sect, so it seems a little strange for these underworld figures to come to the capital for the New Year.

Bai Ziyu told Yun Yuhong about the doubts in her heart, after all, when it comes to the affairs of the rivers and lakes, Hong'er is clearer. Yun Yuhong's brows furrowed when she heard this. She has always suspected that there is a mysterious force brewing behind it in Beijing, but these people feel very vigilant, and they will lie dormant at the slightest disturbance. She sent someone to check for a while and didn't find much success, but she had a bold conjecture, but this conjecture seemed a little ridiculous and lacked evidence. Now that I think about it, they are gathering people in secret, and maybe there will be a big move in the near future.

Yun Yuhong sent someone to call the stingy ghost and the crybaby, let them go to investigate secretly, and let the unlucky ghost enter the palace to protect the father and mother. Then he secretly recruited people and made some arrangements. She didn't know exactly what was going to happen, but it was always a good idea to be on guard.

In the blink of an eye, it is thirty, the whole world celebrates, the sky is full of fireworks, and the lights are colorful everywhere, and there is a joy. The stingy ghost sent back the news and found the whereabouts of the group of Jianghu people, but they didn't make any move. The stingy ghost also tried to approach them, wanting to know the purpose of their coming to Beijing, but these people were very vigilant and rejected outsiders, and he found nothing.

Bai Ziyu was even more uneasy, making people pay strict attention to the movements of these people, after all, Hong'er was pregnant now, and there was no room for any mistakes. Because of the need to be wary of these people in the rivers and lakes, the people in the ghost king's mansion have not had a good year.

Also having a good year is the Qin family. At the beginning of each year, families go to each other to pay New Year's greetings. It's just that this year, no one from the family who was originally close to the Qin family came, and at most they only gave a gift. The banquets organized by the ladies of various provinces also rarely invited the Qin family. The Qin family was suddenly isolated by the nobles of the Jingzhong family. Mrs. Qin was so angry that she finally scolded the unlucky ghost, thinking that everything was an unlucky ghost targeting the Qin family.

Scholar Qin couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help shouting: "Shut up, Calyx is now accompanying the queen in the palace, and I don't have the heart to pay attention to you." You should have known the situation today. There are three major factions in the DPRK and China, the Zhou family and the Yu family have been at odds with our Qin family for many years, and you don't know that our Qin family was originally like this. It's just that because the calyx got married, Yang'er made up for the real deficiency, and the Qin family was full of flowers, and others went to the pole to scold us one or two. Now that the calyx is gone, the Qin family has no shelter in the officialdom, but it has been beaten back to its original form. ”

Mrs. Qin thought about the recent days, and her heart was also wronged, how could she know that there were so many twists and turns in the officialdom, Calyx was just an orphan, and the adoptive mother had no ability, and the person itself had a lot of shortcomings, was it wrong for her to find a better daughter-in-law for her son? Why is everyone complaining about her now? The niece didn't become a daughter-in-law and left, her husband and son didn't give her a good face, and the Qin family was also dissatisfied with her, she was also for this family.

It wasn't until the tenth day of the first year that nothing happened in Beijing, and Yun Yuhong gradually became relieved. It's just that Bai Ziyu feels that there are such a group of Jianghu people in Beijing, and most of them are underworld figures stranded in the capital, which is always a threat to the security of Beijing. It's just that they don't make trouble, and it's not good to directly send troops to arrest them, and they are still worried about this matter every day.

The people and officials in Beijing did not know about this and were still immersed in the afterglow of the New Year. During the Spring Festival, there are countless large and small banquets, and there are many families moving around each other, and the relationship is closer. And the four sons of the Yi family, who have been concerned by everyone, have become the most influential figures in Beijing.

First of all, the fourth son of Yi, a few years ago, the ghost king's mansion gathered, the little lady of the Cao family and the fourth son of the Yi family quarreled for a game of chess, and in this quarrel, the fourth son of Yi actually lost, so after going back, the fourth son of Yi made a heart disease, and he never forgot the little lady of the Cao family who was spicy and a little talented. After the year, he simply asked his parents to go to the Cao family to propose marriage, but what he didn't expect was that the Cao family agreed in one bite, and after mentioning it to Bai Ziyu, the marriage between the two families was decided.

Then there is Yi Er Gongzi, it turned out that Yi Er Gongzi offended someone when he went out on an errand, was chased by the murderer, and was rescued by a chivalrous woman when he was desperate, this chivalrous girl can be said to be very arrogant, and after saving people, he turned around and left without saying a word, leaving only a back to make people sigh, and Yi Er Gongzi sighed for nearly half a year before he saw her in Yun Yuhong's yard, but it turned out to be Yun Yuhong's personal maid Xiaocao. Yi Er Gongzi always wanted to thank Xiaocao, so after seeing her, he chased after her. And this scene happened to be seen by Mrs. Yi, Mrs. Yi thinks he is open-minded, as long as his son likes the disciple's background, he is secondary, so he will come to the door to propose marriage after the year, Yun Yuhong asked what Xiaocao meant, Xiaocao thought about the funny nerd and nodded, so this family matter was settled. Yi Er Gongzi was the last to know the news, but this time he didn't object.

Mr. Yi's family affairs have actually been considered many years ago, and he is talking about Mrs. Yi's niece, who has known Mr. Yi for a long time, and can be said to be a childhood sweetheart. And Yi Sangongzi married the daughter of Mrs. Li's family in the current dynasty, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Yi had a good relationship and admired each other's talents, so they decided to kiss each other.

The common people and officials are busy talking about marriage, and the four ladies in the palace can't sit still, the four princes are not young, and they will reach the age of marriage in two years, so it stands to reason that this family matter should also be decided. So the four of them found Qianzong and the queen at the same time, and listed their favorite daughters-in-law candidates into a booklet and put them on the Qianzong book. The four concubines said that they wanted the emperor and the queen to choose, but in fact, they all had their own careful thoughts. The people listed in the booklet are all recommended by their mother's family, or they are representatives of various forces, and they are all helpful to his son in the future.

Qianzong had a headache after reading all the booklets. Now that several princes have brothers and brothers, they get along harmoniously, and it would be great if they could continue to live like this, but seeing this booklet made him soberly realize how impossible it was. They were born as princes with an inescapable fate, whether they wanted to or not, they were destined to be pushed closer to the dragon chair by the people around them. Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne has been brutal. As they get older, it's finally on the agenda. They are going to choose concubines, they are going to get married, they are going to have their own prince's mansion, they are going to have their own forces, they are going to start the struggle for the throne, a voice kept shouting in Qianzong's ear, Qianzong still put the book on the table, pointed to the four concubines but couldn't speak.

The queen said busily on the side: "Your Majesty, the princes are not young, and it is reasonable for the younger sisters to worry about their family affairs." In this way, this year's night banquet in the fifteenth palace, the emperor invited the ministers, you can take a look at all the ladies in this booklet, and if there is a suitable one, you will set it for a few princes. ”

Qianzong calmed down the anger in his heart, no one in this booklet can be selected, but this can't be said directly, or read it first and then find a reason to push it away. After Hong'er gives birth, I have to find a time to chat, Hong'er trained them at the beginning, maybe they have arrangements or ideas. So Qianzong nodded and said, "Let them prepare it in private, and let me see it at the dinner in two days." ”

Several concubines were overjoyed. As long as Qianzong loosens his mouth and agrees to marry the prince, this matter will be half done. When they returned, their focus was on their sons' work. As long as the son says he likes it on the spot, this family business will be successful.

The four princes didn't know that they had been targeted by their mothers, and they were still thinking about returning to the barracks in two days. In the palace, they can't stay still, in addition to practicing martial arts every day, they take the little prince, five people and a monkey to wander the streets, thirteen or fourteen years old is the age of activity, plus they have seen the vast world, they have countless visions for the future, and the matter of marrying a wife and starting a family has never flashed in their minds. Therefore, they can't understand the thoughts of the four mothers, and they don't want to accept it. When the concubines used a means of coercion on their sons, such as crying, making trouble, and hanging themselves, they gave in on the surface, but secretly revealed the news to Yun Yuhong, as for the method, it was very simple, let the little monkey send a note to Yun Yuhong, and wrote: I don't want to get married, the royal sister help!
