Zeng Zigu asked a few more words, and then sent Tong Mo. Fu called Banniang over again, and handed over Chai Nineteen's letter, it turned out that Banniang also heard that someone in the family came to give gifts, but in any case, she didn't expect that it would be Tongmo sent by Chai Nineteen, and when she heard it, her face was also full of consternation, and when Zeng Zigu said that there was still her letter, she secretly scolded Chai Nineteen in her heart, and she had to take it.

The second brother's face was very ugly, this was the first time that Banniang saw the Tao, and she had the intention to tear up the kid's letter in front of Zeng Zigu, but she felt that if she really tore it like that, wouldn't there be three hundred taels of silver here?

In front of Zeng Zigu, he opened the envelope and took out the letterhead, which was just a thin one, and there was nothing else to say, just an ordinary greeting.

Before reading the letter, Banniang was worried that this kid would say some nonsense in the letter, but now that he has read it, although it is full of nonsense, but the tone is very good, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and the original hanging heart also fell back to where it should be, and handed the letterhead to Zeng Zigu's hand with a smile, and said: "I thought there was something you wanted to entrust me, but it was just a normal greeting, second brother, you can also take a look." ”

Zeng Zigu took it and glanced at it, his face was a little better, and he advised: "You are a girl's family in the end, so our own family knows that you are sparse, so you are liked, but in the end, people outside don't know, if there is anything bad in the future, it will be unfavorable to you, and when you interact with people in the future, you should pay attention." ”

Banniang is full of grievances, and said in her heart, where did I not pay attention? Even if she doesn't pay attention to others, with this Chai Prince, she pays attention and pays attention.

Thinking of what this guy said in her ear on the boat that day, Banniang unconsciously got goosebumps. How dare she take the initiative to provoke him?

However, this is not good to say to Zeng Zigu, so he has to nod.

Zeng Zigu has always loved her, where is he willing to really reprimand? Seeing the grievances on her face, I thought about it, my little sister, don't you still believe it? eased his face, rubbed her head with a smile, and said, "Let's go play if it's okay, Chai Nineteen sent some things, saying that there is a lot of food, you can also go and have a look." ”

When Banniang went out, Zeng Zigu opened his letter, which was the same as Banniang's, but it was just some greetings. Zeng Zigu folded the letterhead and put it on the table. Thinking of the reply to him from the teacher last time, it has been confirmed that this Chai Nineteen should be the son of Prince Yonghe.

When today's family is fifty years old, but there are no heirs, the fate is really similar to that of Emperor Renzong when the Zhao family was in the royal family, so the ministers often write to the emperor and let the emperor choose a prince with both ability and integrity among the children of the clan who is close to him to be the prince, but how can there be a man who does not want to hold the power in his own hands, not to mention that this right is really the highest in the world.

Even if it were to be passed on one day, it would have to be after his death.

How many of his own sons have murdered Lao Tzu for the sake of power, and how can he rest assured that a nephew who will replace him in the future will carry out the destiny of heaven?

And he's still thinking about having one of his own.

Therefore, it has been forcibly pressuring the proposal of the reserve.

The emperor has the emperor's thoughts, and the ministers also have the thoughts of the ministers.

Because of the matter of establishing a prince, there have been more mentions recently, and those princes and royal families are all ready to move, each showing their magical powers, and the situation in Beijing is really delicate now.

Chai Nineteen was stuck in Jiangxi for a while, far away from Shengjing, and it may not have nothing to do with the discussion of the prince, but he returned to Beijing at this juncture, but people couldn't make up their minds, and they didn't know what the reason was.

Zeng Zigu is actually a scholar in his bones, not a politician, and after reading Uncle Yong's letter, he doesn't want to wade into the muddy water in Beijing.

What's more, he is not even a jinshi now, and the battle with the court in the capital, the eight poles can't fight together, if Chai Nineteen has the heart to fight for the reserve, eighty percent has something to do with Uncle Yong. Uncle Ouyang Yong is now the leader of the alliance of the Great Song Shilin, and he is the most proud protégé of the teacher's life, so he takes his own path in such a roundabout way, firstly, he avoids the eyes and ears of others, and secondly, he can achieve unexpected results, otherwise, how could Chai Nineteen do what he likes before and give him so many precious solitary books?

Zeng Zigu couldn't help frowning when he thought about it.

The so-called rich country and strong people, Heqing Haiyan, are just appearances.

Although the army of the Great Song Dynasty is not weak, and millions of soldiers are guarding the frontier, Xia Liao and other countries dare not act rashly, but in the end it is a big trouble. Once the Great Song Dynasty was turbulent and the political situation was unstable, it was difficult to guarantee that the two countries would not join forces to deal with the Great Song Dynasty.

And in the spring, the Heavenly Family was seriously ill, and the officials did not worry about it, once the Heavenly Family died of illness, the whole country was in turmoil, but no one dared to say it clearly.

This is also the main reason why after the Heavenly Family recovered from illness, the affairs of the court and the central government continued to be established.

But what is in the heart of the heavenly family, no one knows.

Not to mention that Zeng Zigu was thinking about it in the study, only that Banniang went to the warehouse to check the Boxing gifts sent by Chai Shijiu, and there was a whole box of yellow finches in it.

In addition, there are some leisure time to look through the history of Honno, which is her favorite, and there are also some exquisite tribute cloths, and a box of new but not expensive head and face jewelry.

In addition, there is a box of supplements.

These things are sent from thousands of miles away, although not to mention how valuable they are, but I also see that the person who gave the gift is attentive.

While sorting it out, Wu said curiously: "I haven't heard of Chai Gongzi before, but your second brother's classmate and friend when he was in Beijing?" ”

Liuniang also wondered why this Chai Nineteen asked people to send a gift from Beijing, and when she saw Wu asking, she replied: "No, it is the fourth brother and the fifth brother's classmates, in the past, in Linchuan, because I like the food made by the eighth sister, I often send people to our house." ”

When the Wu family heard that he was a classmate of Shiro and Goro, it was just that, although this gift was much more valuable than that of ordinary people, but the son of the Chai family was not only from the capital, but his family was also rich, so it was normal.

In the evening, because I didn't book a restaurant, I set up an incense case in the main courtyard of my house, worship the moon and linger incense, and have dinner with the family, the old lady because of her age, accompanied the three generations of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Zhu family and Wu family, Zeng Budo and Zeng Ziye and Zeng Zigu were invited to participate in the poetry meeting, and the others planned to go to the street to play.

Wulang privately pulled Banniang, saying that the two brothers and sisters of Lu Seventeen were invited to do it alone, and when the other brothers and sisters went out, Wulang took a package and pulled Banniang out, and when he got to the door, he found that there was a carriage waiting there.

The brother and sister got into the carriage, and Gorou said with a smile: "Quickly open the package, inside is a set of Jue'er's clothes that I am looking for, I guess you are wearing just right, sister-in-law is newly made, Jue'er has not been on yet." ”

Not only did he have clothes, but Gorou also carefully put a comb and a bamboo hairpin in it.

Banniang was also having fun for a while, this is to let her dress as a man, fortunately, she is still young, and she changes into men's clothes, that is, a boy, if others don't take a closer look, they can't see anything strange at all.

Banniang took off the outer skirt, put on Jue'er's gown, tied it with an ink silk belt, scattered her hair again, combed a bun again, and took a blue bamboo hairpin.

Dressed in white with ink belt, the powder face is like a carving, and he looks like a beautiful young man.

Gorou was extremely satisfied, and quipped, "Whose beautiful boy is this?" If it is a few years longer, Song Yu's posture and willow demeanor are just afraid that as soon as he goes out, he will also be full of vegetables and fruits. ”

Banniang glanced at him and asked seriously: "Fifth brother, can I succeed like this?" ”

"It's done, it's done. I wanted you to pretend to be my little scholar, but look at this, come on, I'll pretend to be your scholar. ”

Banniang was also amused by him, and said angrily: "The fifth brother is used to putting gold on his face, a little boy like me, is there a scholar as old as you?" ”

"Fifth brother, if my father and mother knew about this, they wouldn't scold us, right?" Banniang was a little worried.

"No, I'm all lined up, go back early then, and you can change back into your clothes in the car, without you knowing. Dad and Mom won't know. ”

The brother and sister laughed for a while, and went straight to Ruyi Building.

Because there is a poetry meeting in the Ruyi Building tonight that was personally initiated by the Lord Zhijun, some of the literati in the city will basically be there.

It's no wonder that the samurai also booked a private room in this Ruyi Building, it turned out that it was not just for the sake of admiring the moon.

Banniang regretted it for a while, she knew that the poetry meeting would be held in the Ruyi Building, so she might as well have accepted Wu Sanniang's invitation.
