After Liu Dongxing went to the East Palace to thank him, he didn't mention his jealousy of the prince anymore. Wen Yi faintly noticed that he seemed to have changed his previous views, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, so he listened to his tone intentionally or unintentionally.

Liu Dongxing immediately sensed his wife's intentions, took her hand and said with a smile: "If you have something to ask, let's just say it, what are you doing like this?" After a pause, "Maybe I really thought too badly of the prince in the past, but in fact, now that the crown princess is pregnant, as long as the crown prince is born and there is a successor to the crown prince, the weight of the crown princess will be heavier." Whether it is the Dongyang Marquis Mansion or the Huguo Mansion, the prince will be a little closer. I want to come to the Shanghai Mansion without rebellion, and I have always rarely interfered in the government, even if the crown princess asked someone to calculate before entering the palace, she never relied on her own prestige and power to force the royal family to do anything, which can be said to be very loyal. Even if you are respected in the army, what does it matter? The crown prince can just use the name of his family to win over the generals in the army, which is extremely beneficial to His Royal Highness. Although Taiwei Zheng is also a high authority, in terms of prestige, it is far inferior to the Du Ruan family. ”

Wen Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's really good that you can think like this, and I mean the same thing." When my son entered the palace a few days ago, I quietly sent a message to the maidservants around the crown princess, asking her to remind the princess to be careful, and they would know what to do. In fact, the Dongyang Hou Mansion has always been extremely peaceful, and the Huguo Mansion does not like to cause trouble, and it is really a blessing for the prince to have such a knowledgeable and responsible Yue family. In contrast, the Zheng family was much more arrogant. The sixth sister once mentioned to me that the Zheng family, whether it is the concubine or Miss Zheng, has plotted against many people, for the position of the crown princess, even the face of the prince is ignored, where can the Du Ruan family worry? The crown prince is a person who understands, and he will not do the stupid thing of cutting off his arm for no reason. He was just worried that the prestige of the Guogong Mansion would be too heavy and damage the prestige of the monarch, as long as the crown princess was smart, he would let him understand this truth. ”

Liu Dongxing smiled: "Actually, you can't blame me for thinking too much. You must know that now the generals of the DPRK and the central government, who can resist the barbarian invasion in the northern Xinjiang, are all military generals of the Huguo Mansion, if there are no people, the barbarians will definitely invade the army, and it will be difficult for the prince to sit firmly on his own. Therefore, I never thought that the prince would be jealous of the Ruan family. But now that the prince has taken a fancy to me, and perhaps there are other rookies in the army, and he intends to promote us to be generals who can take charge of themselves, it will inevitably arouse suspicion. Isn't it that he is a general who has the ability to garrison the northern Xinjiang after cultivating and eradicating the Huguo Mansion? It wasn't until yesterday that I had a long conversation with the prince in the East Palace that I understood His Royal Highness's intentions, just to accumulate more generals for the imperial court, but ......"

He hesitated, and Wen Yi asked curiously, "But what?" ”

Liu Dongxing frowned: "But ...... If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no fear of the completion of the Shanghai Mansion, I am afraid it may not be. Promoting newcomers may also have the meaning of curbing the elderly. Compared with other rookies in the army, I was born in Wuju, a child of the Hengan family, and no one in my parents' family has anything to do with the generals. In those three years, there were no major wars in Northern Xinjiang, only a dozen or so small wars, and the generals stationed in Beiwangcheng at that time were still the old people left by Xiao Shi at that time. After Fu Guerrilla left, General Xiao Ruan took over the Huaixi garrison, so the smell of the Huguo Mansion on him was not strong. As for the generals he introduced to me, although four or five of them were trained by the Huguo Mansion, two or three were from other generals, and even one was an old subordinate of the Zheng family. Therefore, compared with other rookies in the army, I really have nothing to do with the Huguo Mansion, even if I have respect for the old Guogong and General Xiao Ruan, it is just the same as everyone else. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will find me, maybe he also takes a fancy to this, right? ”

Wen Yi listened and pursed her lips: "Even so, it doesn't mean that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely be unfavorable to the Huguo Mansion, right?" As long as the Guogong Mansion does not act as a disobedient person, and continues to be like now, the court has an order, so it will go to war, and if the court has no order, it will be settled at home, and the prince has no reason to teach them a lesson? Just looking at the actions of the Marquis of Dongyang and the old Hu Guogong, you know that both families are smart people and will never give someone a handle. ”

Liu Dongxing smiled slightly: "That's why I put my mind at ease." Originally, I trusted the Du Ruan family, but I was afraid that the prince would be too careful, but now I know that even if the prince is too careful, he will not do anything else, and I can't care about anything else. To tell the truth, as long as the Du Ruan family is safe and sound, and the generals of the Hu Guogong line are also safe and sound, I don't care who can be promoted, who can sit in a high position for a long time, and who wants to go home to farm. At least, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince chose to promote newcomers with real skills in the army, rather than choosing to promote his own maternal uncle's family. Just rushing to this, I will obey him. In fact, it's okay, although Taiwei Zheng is a relative in our eyes, but when the Du family has a crown princess, the Dongyang Marquis Mansion and the Huguo Mansion can also be regarded as relatives. Whether they are loyal ministers or not, it is indeed not a good thing for relatives to have too much authority and too high prestige. ”

Wen Yi was delighted to hear this: "In this case, you don't have to worry anymore, we just have to do our part." This is not to go to Kangnan to enjoy happiness, you still have a heavy responsibility to carry on you."

Liu Dongxing smiled and shook Wen Yi's hand: "I know, so I won't care about the affairs of Jingli in the future." ”

The big stone in his heart finally let go, and Liu Dongxing began to put his mind on the matter of worshipping his ancestors. Because the patriarch of the Liu family has been in the capital for a long time, and it is not as good as the family's house, and there are heirs who stay in the countryside to take care of clan affairs, so in order to facilitate the annual sacrifice, a small ancestral hall was built in the bachelor's mansion in the capital to worship the ancestors of the Liu family. When Liu Dongxing came out of the family, he once opened an ancestral hall, but it was just a hasty matter, and this time to worship the ancestors was an unprecedented grand event.

Although the world has heard that Master Liu has a nephew and is not in harmony with each other, and has also heard that Master Liu's biological mother Yao is the daughter of the queen's family, she is not a wife in the Liu family, but the identity of Liu Dongxing has always been unclear. Even if there are rumors that Liu Dongxing's father is the eldest son of the Liu family, and Liu Fu is a concubine, others are also skeptical, after all, the Yao family has been famous in the capital for a long time, and for no reason, how could they marry their daughter to an ordinary Jinshi as a concubine?

But now that the saint has decreed that he has publicly praised Liu Dongxing's grandmother, Liu Rong, the situation is different. The holy decree is written in black and white with the identity of the Rong family, which is the main room of Mrs. Liu's yuan, from the in-laws to the descendants, what is the name and surname, the words and sentences are clearly written, and no one can question it. In addition, the reason for Liu Rong's praise was also clearly stated in the will, she still married into the Liu family in order to repay the kindness of the Liu family when she knew that she would be widowed, and when her husband married another newcomer and went to work, she has been serving her mother-in-law, raising her children, and taking care of her clansmen, which is widely praised by her neighbors. Rong's life is not impeccable, in comparison, Mrs. Yao's reputation is much inferior, even in the capital where her mother's family is located, others praise her is just a general talk, if it is not for a high-ranking son, she will not be prominent.

Comparing the two, plus the year of Liu Rong's death mentioned in the holy decree, the people who are about the same in the capital, as long as they are a little older and remember the old things, it is easy to find that Yao's so-called identity in the main room is greasy, and then look at Liu Fu's age, what the truth is, everyone knows it in their hearts. However, Liu Fu has been an official in the court for many years, and everyone sees his ability and talent, and he will no longer talk about his background, that is, a few officials who are at odds with him will laugh at a few words of "concubine", but they dare not ridicule too much. Liu Fu is a concubine, but her biological mother is the daughter of the Yao family, if she is too low, she will inevitably lose the face of the queen and the Yao family.

But the exposure of this incident has actually fallen on the face of the queen and the Yao family. It is rumored that the Empress Yao was furious in the Middle Palace, and asked the emperor about the decree, but was blocked by the prince's righteous and awe-inspiring and impartial words, so she could only sulk secretly. She originally thought that it was the prince who planted it, but when she inquired, the palace people really meant this, and once mentioned it to the palace people close to her, and now the queen Yao is angry, and she can only blame herself for having no eyes. In a fit of anger, she beat the palace people for twenty boards and drove her out of the palace, but she immediately promised her to Zhu Jingshen, the son of the former King Kang, as a side room.

Zhu Jingshen was not favored in the first place, and when he had a title as a prince, he was already despised, but there were also some slightly declining princely families who intended to marry their daughters in the face that he was a prince and could inherit the throne. And since he even lost the name of this prince, the prince's family no longer looked down on him, and replaced him with some middle-class eunuchs, or the descendants of the declining princess, who looked down on his clan title of the general of the town, the annual 1,000 stone of Lu rice, and the resounding royal name, and intended to marry him, so they sent a message to the queen. However, all this came to naught after the queen's decree to give marriage.

There are more children in the clan, in the capital, but all the emperor's grandsons or nephews are all the names of Zhenguo generals and auxiliary generals, and there are dozens of them, Zhu Jingshen has always had a bad reputation, he is young, and he is not sensible, how much benefit can he do if he marries his daughter? Now that he has not married a wife, he has a side room first, or is it given by the queen herself, who can pull this face to marry his daughter? In addition, in order to marry Zhu Jingshen, the Xia family didn't even want the face of their daughter's family, it can be seen that it is a powerful one, whose daughter is Zhu Jingshen's main room, isn't it only angry?

In an instant, Zhu Jingshen's identity plummeted again, because of the queen's will, Xia soon sat in a small sedan chair into his mansion, but did not see the red lantern hanging in front of the mansion, and then there were rumors that Zhu Jingshen took people to the suburbs of Beijing to hunt.

In the midst of all this disturbance, the Liu family calmly carried out the ancestor worship ceremony.

Originally, he wanted to choose a first-class auspicious day and act solemnly, but after Liu Rong's holy decree was issued, Liu Fu knew that his good plan had failed, and he was a little angry in the court, and his face was damaged, so he no longer had the original spirit, so he simply handed over the matter to his wife and daughter-in-law.

Liu Gu and Wen Xian were even more reluctant to correct Liu Dongxing's name, but they were reluctant to handle it in the way of material discussions, but the day before the sacrifice, Wen Yi sent all the offerings and candles she had prepared, and compared everything they had prepared, and under the eyes of the servants around her, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both blushed.

Liu Gu sneered: "As if he was afraid that others would not know that his family is rich now, our Gu family's daughter has never done such an upstart thing."

Wen Xian secretly glanced at her mother-in-law and aunt, kept silent, and went back to the room but complained to Shiqin: "It's all my mother-in-law's own opinion, and now I'm ugly, but even others look down on me." The family of the ninth sister will go back and report it, she must laugh at me."

Shiqin was a little absent-minded: "Auntie, what are you doing bothering about these little things?" No matter what others say, my uncle's name will not change. It's Mrs. Gu who is ashamed, what does it have to do with you? As long as you follow Mrs. Gu, she will take care of everything. It's a matter in our hospital, you have to be attentive, Miaolu's girl waits by her uncle's side every day, and even Abi we brought from home has begun to come together to please your uncle, aren't you worried? ”

Wen Xian's face sank: "Miaolu is down, what's going on with that Abi?" She was a member of my grandmother's house before she got married, and she suddenly did such a thing, could it be my grandmother's meaning? She is really wronged in her heart, she is no longer favored, and she is also the daughter of the Gu family, and now her mother's family does not help her to fix her favor, but let the dowry girl make trouble, which is too much

Shiqin sighed: "My good aunt, no matter who you mean, you are always the big * grandmother of the main house." The little girl wants to rebel, if you spare her, what will others think? ”

Wen Xian's face became even more gloomy: "I don't need you to say it, I naturally know what to do"

Where did Wen Yi and Dongxing know all the things in the Academy's Mansion? When the day came, they dressed themselves according to the rites, came according to the rites, acted according to the rites, and when the prayers were over, they took their leave and left.

Liu Fu stopped Liu Dongxing: "Don't be busy, brother, the second uncle has something to discuss with you, this matter is related to the rise and fall of my Liu family, so don't shirk it anymore."

Wen Yi frowned slightly, turned her head to look at her husband, and Liu Dongxing smiled slightly: "Second Uncle is right, there are some things that really need to be settled." ”

Wen Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, Liu Dongxing hadn't said such a thing before he came, what was he ...... What are you going to do?。.。
