Chapter 183: Absolute Loyalty
On the day of Tong Qiurong and Su Boxing's wedding, the capital Su Mansion was very lively.
On that day, all the dim sum in Su Mansion was in charge of Su Ji, which was a rare scene.
Everyone knows that if it weren't for Su Ji being the Su family's industry, I'm afraid that no one would be able to ask Su Ji to be in charge of dim sum.
After all the red tape is over, the banquet begins.
During the banquet, Su Zhiyuan talked a lot with the Wang family, they were very satisfied with Tong Qiurong, and when Su Bowen said auspicious words to Shen Baiqing, the couple glanced at each other, and Shen Baiqing was the first to say.
"My brother and sister-in-law are overjoyed, my husband and I have nothing to give, I don't have much ability, so I want to send a store to my brother and sister-in-law.
My sister-in-law said before I left the cabinet that I was envious that I could do business outside, and now my sister-in-law married into the Su family, if I want to do business outside, this shop can be used by my sister-in-law, and the third store in Su Ji will be accepted by my sister-in-law. ”
As soon as Shen Baiqing's words came out, everyone present was shocked, you must know that one shop in Su Ji can earn hundreds of taels of silver a day, and Su Ji's two stores can already earn more than 10,000 taels a month.
Now that Su Bowen and Shen Baiqing have sent the shop directly, it can be seen that there are really no messy disputes between the Su family brothers, and they are really harmonious and beautiful.
Su Zhiyuan and Wang glanced at each other, and they were both very satisfied with Shen Baiqing, the second daughter-in-law.
That night, before Su Zhiyuan and Wang rested, Wang thought of today's events and couldn't help but say.
"I knew that Qing'er's girl was a different kind of child, she was very smart in business, and she was very sophisticated.
Seeing that the relationship between them is so good, we can rest assured. ”
The peace of the house is very important to the Su family, the Wang family is happy, and Su Zhiyuan feels even more at ease.
"Since the Su family is smooth sailing now, and Mrs. treats the two daughters-in-law well on weekdays, our Su family must not show the dark side of those big families."
"Don't worry, the concubine knows."
Early in the morning of the second day, Su Zhiyuan had not returned for a long time, Shen Baiqing was playing with Rui'er here, Su Bowen's face was extremely ugly when he returned to the inner room, and he noticed the change in Su Bowen's expression, Shen Baiqing couldn't help but ask on the side.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing Shen Baiqing asking, Su Bowen did not hide it at all.
"My father was left behind by His Majesty after the end of the dynasty this morning, and two hours have passed, and I don't know what happened."
Knowing that Su Zhiyuan was detained in the palace by His Majesty, Shen Baiqing also panicked, you must know that the ancient kings did not have so much time to be willing to greet their courtiers, which can only mean that either Your Majesty wants to blame the Su family, or there is something to explain to the Su family.
"Mother knows about this?"
"Well, the eldest brother got the news first, and my mother already knew, and my sister-in-law and eldest brother are comforting my mother in the main hall."
"Then let's go too."
Thinking that the Wang family was afraid that they would worry about this matter, Shen Baiqing went to the main hall with Su Bowen.
When she came to the main hall, Shen Baiqing saw Wang's sad appearance, and the atmosphere of the main hall was much more solemn.
Shen Baiqing came to Wang's side and persuaded.
"Mother, I think Your Majesty should have something to leave to discuss with my father, maybe my father will come back after a while."
"Hey, I'm just worried about how the good and decent people could suddenly be left behind, during this time, our Su family is keeping to themselves."
The Wang family has been by Su Zhiyuan's side for many years, and he has not seen many winds and waves, but the Wang family is still worried.
In the past, the Su family was not so ostentatious, and she didn't need to worry too much, but now the Su family is different from the past, and the Wang family's worries are not without reason.
Seeing that the Wang family was like this, Tong Qiurong also persuaded on the side.
"I have already sent someone to ask my mother's family, and my father said that His Majesty was not angry today, and he did not punish anyone for this, I think I guess I was looking for my father to talk casually, and my mother still don't have to worry."
Seeing Tong Qiurong and Shen Baiqing comforting the Wang family together, Su Bowen and Su Boxing glanced at each other, and felt at ease for a while.
Fortunately, there are female relatives in the family who can soothe the mother's emotions, otherwise the two brothers really don't know how to deal with this matter.
Just when everyone was panicking, Su Zhiyuan would come.
Seeing that Su Zhiyuan's expression was solemn, and everyone was not good at saying something, Wang personally led someone to accompany Su Zhiyuan back to his courtyard, and after changing the wash, Su Zhiyuan summoned the family to the main hall.
Everyone could see that Su Zhiyuan should have something very important to say, so everyone looked solemn.
After looking around, Su Zhiyuan spoke seriously.
"You are curious about what His Majesty said about keeping me here today."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and no one planned to speak, but Shen Baiqing asked.
"I don't know what Your Majesty said to my father."
Tong Qiurong looked at Shen Baiqing with some admiration, knowing that she didn't dare to ask Su Zhiyuan directly like this.
Su Zhiyuan admired Shen Baiqing's neat attitude very much, Su Zhiyuan cleared his throat and said slowly.
"Your Majesty just talked to me about the past at the beginning, and talked about a lot of what our Su family has done for Your Majesty and the court in the past two years.
His Majesty said that our Su family is the only family he can rest assured of, and His Majesty hopes that no matter how turbulent the court is, our Su family must have nothing to do with any faction, even if the knife is on the neck one day, the Su family will definitely not give in. ”
Knowing His Majesty's meaning, everyone's expressions became more and more solemn, Shen Baiqing knew that His Majesty was also a smart person, and knew the importance of winning over the Su family.
Just when Shen Baiqing thought that there was nothing else, Su Zhiyuan sighed.
"Your Majesty also said that the treasury is tight, and I hope that our Su family, as an imperial businessman, can take the initiative to do our part, so that he can also let other families in the court also contribute."
"I wonder how much the father plans to let his son pay?"
Now Su Ji's trading money has gone into Su Bowen's pocket, Su Zhiyuan and the Wang family have never complained about anything, plus Su Boxing's wedding, Shen Baiqing and Su Bowen gave them a shop that makes money every day, so it is difficult for everyone to say anything.
Su Zhiyuan glanced at Su Bowen meaningfully and reminded.
"Don't pay too much, don't pay too little."
"Why don't we hand over the profits of the two Su Ji for half a year, okay?"
As soon as Shen Baiqing's words came out, everyone was shocked, you must know that the profit of the two Su Ji in half a year can be three million taels, if the Su family hands over three million taels, Your Majesty will be satisfied, but there will be many people who will start to covet the Su family a little more.
Su Bowen echoed on the side.
"Half a year's profit is no more, no less, and now Su Ji has not been established for long, we can hand over so much, it is enough to show the sincerity of our Su family, we can promise Your Majesty that we will hand over half a year's store profits to the imperial court every year in the future, so that the Su family can also be guaranteed to worry."
