Xinglong County, Niufu.

"Master, madam, the young master has a letter!"

"It's a letter from Sheng'er, bring it quickly!" Mrs. Niu was overjoyed.

My baby son has been out for a long time, how can he not be worried? Niu Cheng strode to the servant's side, hurriedly opened the letter, and read it word by word, for fear of missing the message expressed by his son.

"Hahaha......" After reading the letter, Niu Cheng laughed, "Butler, pass the order, and everyone in the mansion will double the monthly silver this month!" ”

"Thank you, Master." The housekeeper was also very happy, "Master, is there good news for the eldest young master?" ”

Seeing his father-in-law laughing, he wanted to reward his subordinates again, but Mrs. Niu was anxious: "What are you laughing at?" Hurry up and show me, how is my son doing over there? Have you ever been bullied? I don't know if he has enough money to spend there. ”

"Sheng'er said that in this year's hunting battle in the capital, he won the first place, and my son won the first place, hahaha......" Niu Cheng laughed insolently.

"Really?" Mrs. Niu hurriedly took the letter, and after reading it, she also smiled, "Sheng'er is really amazing!" ”

"Of course, don't look at whose son it is!" Niu Cheng is scolded, and his son is out of luck, which is more happy than him earning hundreds, taels and thousands of taels.

Mrs. Niu said angrily: "It's not your son alone. ”

"Yes, yes, our son, our son, haha...... Oops, how can my son be so powerful! Worthy of my son. "Niu Cheng can't hide his pride.

Mrs. Niu pinched the letter in her hand like a baby, and said, "I don't know if he is in the capital, is there enough money to spend?" This kid doesn't say when he will come back, he's really anxious. ”

"He eats and lives in the Hou Mansion, can the Hou Ye still starve him? Besides, when I went, I not only gave Hou Ye a hundred taels of silver to do his living expenses, there are many dignitaries and nobles in the capital, we merchants, we can't fight for anything else, but we can still fight for money, in order not to let him be looked down upon, I also gave birth to two ingots of gold and a hundred gold leaves, and the money is definitely not bad. ”

A gold leaf is equivalent to three and a half taels of silver, a hundred gold leaves are equivalent to three hundred and fifty taels of silver, and two gold ingots, Niu Junsheng's finances alone are nearly a thousand taels, so Niu Cheng is not worried at all that his son's money is not enough to spend, even if it is not enough, is there still a loyal Houfu?

"If you don't know the place well, you don't feel at ease, you should have known that I should have followed me."

The worry of the mother is a true portrayal of Mrs. Niu's mood at the moment.

Niu Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we go to the capital now?" ”

"To the capital?" Mrs. Niu thought for a while, "You go, I won't go, Junsheng is still young, it's too hard to travel, where can he stand it?" If you leave me, he will definitely cry, you go, bring more silver and guards, the road is so far. ”

"Then I'll go and arrange the arrangements first." Niu Cheng responded happily, in fact, he couldn't wait to see Niu Junsheng.

The son is out of breath, his face as a father is very bright, before leaving the capital, he has to go to various houses first, hehehe.

At the same time, the Li family, Liu Dayou's family, the village chief's family, and the Xiao family all received letters from the capital, and now several families are listening to Liu Fei's letter at the village chief's house!

After listening to the letter, Grandma Li reproached: "This kid doesn't say when he will come back?" ”

Mrs. Xiao also said: "I said I was homesick again, and I didn't say when I would come back, it's really ...... Xiaofei, when you reply to the letter, help me ask and see when they will come back, they have been out for so long, and they are still not as good as at home. ”

"Yifan is such a big official, and the two of them are so capable, it is estimated that the emperor values them, it is rare to go to the capital, and they must stay longer." The village chief smiled with honor.

"That's right, I can't find a girl as powerful as our Yingzi in the entire Xinglong County! She and Yifan are really a perfect match. "Grandpa Li is very proud, he is going out now, who is not respectfully shouting Old Lady Li, people who don't know, as soon as they heard that he is from Choushuwan, they immediately have a different attitude towards him, and they will give discounts when they buy things, all because of Liu Yifan and Yingzi.

Liu Fei said: "Then I'll reply now, what do you want to write, come one by one." ”

"The last time they went hunting, I asked them if they were hurt, and this kid has always reported good news and bad news." Xiao said.

"Ask them if they eat over there, whether they are thin or fat."

"Ask Yingzi, are those three little hobbies to bring? Noisy at night? ”

"Ask my ........."

A room full of people, you say a word to me, a letter is full of more than a dozen pieces of paper, and the old people seem to have endless words.

The next day, Liu Fei was going to the post station to send a letter, but he didn't expect the Niu family to come early in the morning, it turned out that Niu Cheng decided to go to the capital, so he wanted to ask the Li family, the Liu family, and the Xiao family if there was anything to bring to the child, so Liu Fei gave him the letter and asked him to hand it over to Liu Yifan or Luo Ying.

As soon as they heard that the old man of the Niu family was going to the capital, Liu Xiao and Li Sanjia hurriedly turned out a lot of things from home, eating and wearing, and they couldn't wait to empty their homes and send them to the capital.

In the end, Liu Fei couldn't help but persuade him: "They may come back in the last month, don't toss, besides, they have money on them, and they will buy anything they lack." ”

"Yes, old lady, this letter must be delivered, something......" The servant of the Niu family said respectfully, "My master can't wait to see the young master, there are too many things to delay the journey, so you see ......"

When people said so, the parents of Liu Xiao and Li didn't want to say anything more, and they also had three big burdens of things, except for some food, which were small clothes and shoes made for Luo Ying's three small buns, which were full of love.

The capital didn't know that Niucheng was ready to come to Beijing.

Liu Yifan mentioned to the emperor that he wanted to return to Choushuwan, but the emperor never let go, but he was very pleased with Liu Yifan's proposal that he would bear the road repair funds and literacy education funds of Xiangnan Mansion in the future.

It's good to be grateful, and I'm glad that I won't keep staring at the two of us Luo Ying thought like this.

How could the emperor not know what they were thinking?

In fact, he is not interested in Liu Yifan and Luo Ying's money at present, but he is worried that the secret of hybrid rice will be leaked out.

The reason why he hasn't moved Liu Yifan and his family until now, one is whether hybrid rice can really increase production, he wants people to plant it this year, and second, Liu Luo can make money, because they have filled the treasury a lot, and robbed a lot of business of the family, which makes the emperor very happy, and third, these two people do have the ability, whether it is a literacy class or building bridges and paving roads, they have done a lot of things that benefit the country and the people, and the big things they have done are based on the reputation of the emperor and the prestige of the court, which has greatly improved the emperor's reputation in the minds of the people.

It's a pity that such a talent is really going to die.

This is also the reason why the emperor left Liu Yiming and Shi in the capital.

However, soon the emperor will no longer be entangled in this, because ......

Prince's Mansion.

"Mother, you're looking for me." Xiao Yu bowed respectfully.

Seeing her son, the crown princess smiled even more: "Have you been busy with your studies recently?" ”

"With Lao's mother worried, the child is fine."

"But you're all thin." The crown princess looked at her son, her face was distressed, and her expression suddenly became extremely serious again, and said, "The people around me don't know how to serve, Mama Li, pick two more capable maids for Your Highness." ”

"The mother doesn't need to be angry, the child is fine, maybe he has been a little tired from training in the camp recently."

"Be sure to pay attention to your body, and go back to the kitchen to make you more soup to replenish your body."

"Thank you, Mother."

After caring about the physical things in her life, the crown princess finally took a detour to the topic, "Yu'er, you are almost thirteen, and when your mother was so old with you, she was already married to your father." ”

Xiao Yu chuckled in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, the crown princess said: "What do you think of your cousin, Jiaojiao?" ”

"The family background and appearance are good."

Hearing this, of course the crown princess was happy, thinking that there was a play, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Xiao Yu's next words: "But if it is a child, I will definitely not marry a girl like my cousin." ”

"Why?" The crown princess's smile froze on her face.

"First of all, mothers should know that the marriage of children is not up to children."

Xiao Yu's marriage as the eldest grandson of the emperor cannot be determined by his own preferences, especially the position of the main palace mother, which must be a tool to stabilize the country and weigh the pros and cons.

"Secondly, my cousin is rude and willful, which is very annoying."

The crown princess didn't expect Xiao Yu to have this attitude towards Yin Jiaojiao, it was easy to do it if she didn't have an idea or a feeling, but now he said that he hated it......

The crown princess's face was extremely ugly, if someone else said this, he would have been mad, but in the end it was her own son, she said patiently: "The little girl is naturally pampered, but how Jiaojiao treats you, we all see it." ”

The crown princess feels that she is pampered and rude, which means that people are favored and have the capital to be rude and capricious. What's more, this person is her mother's family! Although she is already the crown princess, she also needs the support of her mother's family, both glory and loss, which is why she must help her mother's family.

"Mother, girls aren't all unreasonable." For example, Xin'er is very well-behaved!

However, he can only say this in his heart for the time being, otherwise it will cause trouble to Xin'er and even the Zhongyi Houfu.

"Listening to Yu'er say this, don't you have a favorite person?" The crown princess stared into Xiao Yu's eyes, trying to find clues.

Xiao Yu's face was unwavering: "Mother, don't you want me to marry my cousin!" It's useless to look for me about this, you should let your father and the imperial grandfather discuss it. ”

The crown princess is also worried about this, because the emperor has not let go so far, so she wants her son to go to the emperor, if her son likes it, with the current situation of the Yin family, the emperor should be relieved, but she never expected her son to hate Yin Jiaojiao!

"Mother, the child still has a lot of homework to do, so he quit first." Afraid that the crown princess would be entangled again, Xiao Yu found an excuse and quickly slipped away.

But today's events have also sounded the alarm bell for him, and some things are too late if they are not in a hurry.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu quickened his pace.
