Father's words seem to make sense, but Zhu Rong knows very well that he will not stand between the crown prince and the fourth prince, if it is not for the fact that he conspired with the emperor to get rid of Prince Sheng's father and son, he will not say these words to perfunctory himself.

"People who won't move them for the time being, even the emperor won't move, the queen and the Yang family will only anger the emperor if they make an unauthorized move." Zhu Chengqian closed his eyes and said solemnly, "Don't worry, Yunzhi will marry well." ”

Zhu Rong said: "Border strategy, dad wants to give me more guidance, or ask a few seniors to help me." ”

Zhu Chengqian opened his eyes, every time his son asked for help, his dependence and trust in him, he was satisfied, and tonight he did not hesitate to come to Yang's house to find him, which made him extremely happy.

Although there are some things at the moment, he has to hide from his son, but everything he does is for his son's future and for the sake of better passing on the century-old family business of the Zhu family to him.

When he returned home, he went to Qingqiu Pavilion, and he didn't see Fu Yi waiting outside, Xu was for the sake of conspiring with the emperor, Zhu Chengqian didn't have the heart to worry about his daughter-in-law's trivial matters tonight, leaving his son and not wanting him to send it again, so he went back with his wife.

Zhu Rong stood in front of the door and watched his father leave, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then returned to the room, Fu Yi did not sleep, sitting at the desk, holding the account book and turning the abacus, calculating something nervously.

"What's the matter?" Zhu Rong said, "It's late, can't it be counted tomorrow?" ”

"Are you hungry, you ran out without a bite of food." Fu Yi said, "It's in the kitchen." ”

"I've eaten in Yang's Mansion." Zhu Rong walked around the desk, looked at the things that Fu Yi calculated, and said with a smile, "In the winter, the charcoal fire of each family of the clan will reward silver? ”

"It turns out that grandma will give another reward, not with the middle government." Fu Yi said, "My sister wants me to come to Zhang Luo's grandmother's reward this year, compared with the practice of previous years, it depends on how much the eldest lady sends this year, and whether each household has added or decreased the population." ”

Zhu Rong took off his coat and said: "Do these things for two more years, you will naturally become familiar with it, the most complicated thing in the future is how to run the field manor, how to take better care of the family's property, naturally this is not only your business, but also my responsibility." ”

"Is it all the eldest lady in charge now?" Fu Yi asked.

"Part of it, some of the things on Zhuangzitian's head, most of them are in my father's hands." Zhu Rong said, "Otherwise, just with our official position and title, we can't support such a big family business by relying on the imperial court alone, and there are hundreds of people waiting for the Zong family to feed." ”

Fuyi has always been obsessed with Wang's mother, who is greedy for so much silver from the expenses in the house, but Wang's mother was disposed of by the eldest master, and her life and death are unknown, and the things that were originally investigated have been interrupted.

"I want to catch someone else, but it's going to be difficult." Fu Yi said, "I know that our family has gold and silver mountains, and I can't spend it in a few lifetimes, but the embankment of thousands of miles is destroyed in the anthill, and I am most afraid of being mothed out of it. ”

Zhu Rong said: "This will be very hard, there are so many trivial things, you may not have the intention to study and teach in the future, and you don't even have the days to pick up books, and you look at the eldest lady, how idle are you panic?" ”

Fu Yi shook his head: "That's not possible, think about it, maybe three hundred years ago, the subordinates in the family only dared to be greedy for ten taels of silver a year, and three hundred years later, they put thousands of them in their pockets, and if it goes on like this, more than a year after a year, even if there are really mountains of gold and silver, they will be able to empty sooner or later." ”

Zhu Rong walked back to the table and said, "I naturally support you, but I'm too busy at the moment, and the affairs at home must be put on hold first, the emperor wants me to do an offensive and defensive strategy against the Zanxi people, and I don't have the bottom in my heart." ”

Fu Yi was busy trying to get the desk out, but Zhu Rong asked her to sit still, moved a chair and sat opposite, and said with a smile: "Let's each do our own homework, if we don't do well, we will be punished, you have been scolded by the big sister, right?" ”

"Not really." Fuyi is very proud, "My sister always praises me." ”

"I don't believe it." Zhu Rong smiled and opened a few books about the Zansi people that he had originally prepared.

"Brother Rong, do you want to hear from me?" Fu Yi propped his cheek with one hand and said with a smile, "I have seen how the Kishu border is guarded by enemies, and my father often mentions it to me, so you are more familiar with it than you grew up in the capital." ”

Zhu Rong hurriedly hugged his fists: "Please give me advice." ”

Fu Yi sat down seriously: "Then, let's start with the military regulations of the prince." ”

The little couple talked until late at night, Zhu Rong benefited a lot, and helped her husband to be soothed and loved in every way before going to bed, and had a good night's sleep, but unfortunately the next morning, she was dragged up by Zhu Rong from a good dream and took her to practice riding.

Fu Yi was reluctant in every way, Zhu Rong first patiently coaxed to teach, but when she couldn't coax her, she could only pull down her face and become a stern master, bluffing her so wronged.

This situation was bumped into by Pingli, who also came to walk the horse early in the morning, and after returning to Xiyuan, he mentioned a few words as a joke, who knew that his mother would be passed on to his grandmother, and it was spread to everyone in the family.

The third lady had no malicious intentions, but she was worried that she would be bullied, but she had to be called by her father-in-law to give a lecture, and she was almost sent to the ancestral hall to kneel.

In this way, Fuyi was annoyed, and she went to bed early that night, ignoring people.

Zhu Rong thought that she would never learn to ride a horse again, and she didn't want to be late the next day, and the person who was lazy and lost his temper on weekdays woke up early, but dragged him from his dream: "It's time to learn to ride a horse." ”

People with good brains, sure enough, learn everything quickly, help the will no longer twist and pinch and frolic, and after learning the Eight Classics once, she has made rapid progress, and Zhu Rong can already hand her over to Pingli with peace of mind.

On this day, after repeated retention, the emperor finally granted the old minister's request to resign, allowing him to leave the court early and return to his hometown.

Although the ancestral house of the Min family is not far from the capital, the old man is old and can't withstand the bumps of cars and horses.

At the same time, the emperor gave a decree and selected October 21, which was an auspicious day, and he would personally marry Min Zhu and the two mansions.

The original half year was shortened to less than one month in an instant, and although the Min Zhu family calculated that the emperor would take this step, they were still frightened by such a short time.

In other words, the emperor wants the old man to leave the capital, and he is only willing to give him another month to arrange future affairs.

But everyone can't say that, and they have to be grateful to the emperor, and they must immediately start the marriage in a decent manner.

Coincidentally, not long ago, the two families married one after another, the difference is that the Zhu family is a solemn and heavy place to marry a daughter-in-law, while the Min family just hastily married the girl who lives under the door, and the Zhu family is ready to marry a daughter again, which is much easier than the Min family hurriedly starting to prepare for marriage.

In the afternoon of the same day, the female relatives of the family gathered in front of the old lady, although Dongyuan married her daughter, because the family had not yet been separated, the middle prince also had to pay money, and the eldest lady promised two hundred taels of silver according to the rules handed down by the ancestors.

The second lady felt uncomfortable, and asked in front of her mother-in-law: "You are sending Huazi, but I am afraid that the silver stolen from your house by the Wang family is more than two hundred taels." ”

The eldest lady smiled coldly: "How can I listen to what you mean, you want to borrow your daughter to marry and make a fortune from me?" In your opinion, how much is too much, you report the number, and I'll listen to it first. ”

The second lady said angrily: "You were stolen by your own minions, and you didn't blink your eyes, and your niece of your relatives got married, and you fooled people with two hundred taels of silver?" Sister-in-law, your family is too unfair, can the current market price be compared with before, the rules are set by people, if you can marry your daughter for twenty taels of silver three hundred years ago, you will also give twenty taels of silver now? ”

The third lady smiled on the side and said, "Sisters-in-law, don't quarrel, this is a happy event, and it will be a joke when it is spread out, isn't it?" ”

The old lady picked up the tea bowl, coughed dryly, and glanced at her youngest son and daughter-in-law.

The third lady is quite smart, knowing that her mother-in-law wants her to shut up, don't gloat here because her mother-in-law has covered the expenses of her children's future marriage, lest the world be chaotic.

The eldest lady was reluctant to give more money, so she pushed it on her mother-in-law: "If my mother also thinks that two hundred taels is less, you give me a number, and I will estimate it." There are so many girls in the family, grandchildren and grandchildren, this rule is to be passed on, even if the younger brothers and sisters want 200,000 taels of silver, I can give it, but I can make a note on the account, and everyone will take this as an example in the future. ”

Hearing this, everyone subconsciously wanted to look at Fuyi, but she was not in front of her, the old lady put down the tea bowl and said leisurely: "She accompanied Hanzhi to the palace, she is not at home, she doesn't need her to be in front of her." ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she glared at her mother-in-law in shock: "Han'er, isn't she in bad health?" ”

The second lady sneered: "Is your daughter in good health, don't you know, sister-in-law?" ”
