Chapter 139 Once the power is in hand, the order will be carried out
March 12 was the day when King Lin Taiyong of Jin and Chen Ying, Marquis of Yangning, were ordered to go to Xuanfu. One of the two is a royal family, the other is a nobleman, plus there are 200 Jinyi guards accompanying them, and the cabinet Song Ge Lao led several important ministers to personally send them outside the Xuanwu Gate, so naturally the scene is enough to give face. However, for the people of the capital, the well-guarded send-off scene has been prohibitive, how can it be more festive and lively than the Gongyuan list?
The Chu Dynasty system, the trial list has always been Zhang Zaidong's fourth archway, so since early in the morning, it has been crowded here. When the brocade guards escorted a head of the Ministry of Rites to post the list, the crowd hulala suddenly surrounded three layers inside and three layers outside. After all, thousands of people took the Gongyuan exam, but in the end, only three or four hundred people were nominated for the apricot list, how can it be called a sad and joyful? While watching the list, there are those who suddenly shout and laugh, those who suddenly let out sorrow and go crazy, and those who call friends to raise their eyebrows.
Most of the people who are squeezing at the bottom of the list are poor families, while the rich and noble families are much more reserved, and most of the people who are squeezing around in the crowd to find names are domestic servants. At this moment, a little man in a green coat and hat managed to squeeze out of the crowd with great difficulty, ran two steps and jumped and pulled the upper of his shoe, and then ran to a carriage with no decoration, and bent down respectfully.
"The prince has been hit!"
"Sure enough!" The woman in the car didn't come out, and then asked, "Do you know what it is?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the little guy's face changed, and he hesitated for a moment before he said: "The small ones are not counted carefully, but they seem to be the fourth or fifth from the bottom......"
"Damn!"
Aunt Luo in the car suddenly showed anger, and suddenly clenched Luo Pa in her hand, and then lightly ordered the little guy to retreat, and let the coachman go back to the house. When the car got moving, she sneered angrily in the car, and muttered to herself: "It must be those corrupt people who claim to be high!" That's it, he is already the prince of Weiguo, and this test is just a formality, is he still going to be the sesame official with those scholars? ”
On this day, Chen Lan also got up early in the morning, freshened up and dressed up and went to see the Zhu family in the Tatexiang Courtyard, and rushed to the Water Mirror Hall before he had breakfast. Remembering the scene of yesterday evening, she couldn't help but smile a little.
At that time, Mrs. Xu came back from Guangning Bo Mansion in a vegetarian suit, and invited Mrs. Ma to go in the Lotus Courtyard, saying that she would let her help her housekeeper, and sure enough, Mrs. Ma, who was still counting on the dead wood in spring, refused politely, saying that she also wanted to recuperate, but she tried her best to promote her daughter. Mrs. Xu waited for this sentence, and said lightly and skillfully that the two sisters Chen Bing and Chen Yun would go to the account room to supervise the accounts, and Mrs. Ma thought that it was a good thing to hold the accounts, but she didn't think about it, but felt that she had picked up a bargain.
At this moment, Chen Lan saw that Mrs. Xu and Chen Xi had arrived, and after seeing each other, he sat down at the lower left hand of the main seat. She had presided over here for a while, and she was very familiar with all of them, so the mothers and daughters-in-law who were in charge of the house had nothing to say at first. Only when Mrs. Xu said lightly that she had asked the old lady to show that the third room was going to be moved from Cuiliuju to Qingxi Residence in the back hall on the middle road, the house was shocked for a while, and even Chen Xi had an expression of surprise.
Mrs. Xu had already discussed with Chen Lan and made a decision, and then continued: "The old man attacked the Marquis of Yangning, and the old lady originally had the intention of letting the old man move, but there were many things before, so it was delayed, and now it is March in the spring of Yangchun, and it is just taking advantage of this good weather to clean up everything." All the furniture and furnishings in Cuiliuju have to be re-counted, and these things will be managed by the fifth lady, and the transfer of rooms and manpower in the Qingxi residence will be at the disposal of the third lady. The most important thing in this month's mansion is this matter, although I am not in good health, but I will also ask from time to time, you remember, don't be bad and smash your face for decades! ”
With such a big event, what girl should be matched when she is old, which mother-in-law should set off if she messes things up, and which daughter-in-law who patrols the night catches the thief and steals the child...... Such small things are naturally ignored by these daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law, and what they care about most now is what such a big event represents. Even Chen Xi was a little restless, taking advantage of the time for lunch, when the girl whispered to her side and said a few words, she reported and retreated first.
Chen Ying was not there, but Mrs. Xu was even more worried that Chen Ting would stay alone in Cuiliuju, so she simply brought people out this morning. It's just a child, listening to those mothers-in-law and mothers replying one by one, watching the unchanged things to get the right cards, he gradually dozed off with his eyelids, and then followed Mrs. Xu and Chen Lan to lunch after the battle, he still looked listless.
Mrs. Xu looked distressed when she saw her son's situation, and said to Chen Lan after lunch: "Lan'er, Ting'er looks like this, if you follow me every day in the future, I'm afraid your spirit will be even worse." There are also things going on in Guangningbo's Mansion every day, and I have to go over from time to time, so I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of him. It's better to be like this, I won't be here in the morning these days, you and the five girls cook together, even if she thinks about it, even if she uses any means, you can control it. If I go to Guangning Bofu and put Ting'er in the Tatexiang Temple, what do you think? ”
Chen Lan knew that Mrs. Xu was sincerely entrusted, and after a little thought, he nodded happily: "It's okay, just do what the third aunt said." Just ......"
Seeing Chen Ting blinking her eyes and playing with the jade pendant tassel in her waist, she said softly: "Third aunt, the sixth brother is still young, it doesn't matter if he is weaker, as long as he recuperates slowly, it's not good to blindly confine people in the house." Look at Xiao Si, because we have no parents since we were children, I can't keep an eye on him all the time, he just runs around in Fangfei Pavilion all day long, and no one can control him, but he is thick and strong, which shows that sometimes he has to let people go out for a walk. Now that the peach blossoms in the back garden are blooming well, you might as well take him to relax, after all, it is not good for you to stay in the house all day long. ”
Mrs. Xu heard Wu's mother say the day before yesterday that Chen Ting was very happy in the back garden, and then went back to the house, Chen Ting also pointed to the peach blossom in the vase on the shoulder of the Ruyao beauty and excitedly said that it was folded by herself, at this time hearing Chen Lan's words, her heart moved, and then immediately took Chen Lan's hand and said: "Good boy, thank you for having a heart!" ”
Pampered children are not as good as free-range, whether it is from Chen Yan's body or from many cases in later generations, Chen Lan deeply believes in this - naturally, this is just the body, as for temperament, talent, etc., it needs to be cultivated. However, she also knew that it was enough for her to remind her, and it would be counterproductive to say too much, so she didn't mention it anymore, and only discussed the manpower allocation at Qingxi House for a while. She asked Mrs. Xu to recommend a safe person first, and when Mrs. Xu happily reported a series of names, she took Chen Ting and Mother Wu away.
As soon as she left, Chen Lan ordered Su Mu Pepper to go back to the Splendid Pavilion to replace Qin Fang and Yun'er. didn't think that Qin Fang would bring Ruixue after a while, but she said that Yun'er had slipped out after lunch, and she didn't know where anyone was at this time. Although he was used to this girl going around the camp to inquire about her temper, looking at Qin Fang, who was full of embarrassment, Chen Lan still felt a little helpless, so she had to ask Rui Xue to look outside
"Forget it, if she's not there, it's not there, you just listen first." After settling down, she spoke, "Today, the third aunt has already said about the relocation, the affairs of Cuiliuju are under the control of the fifth sister, and the affairs of Qingxi Ju are assigned by me. Add to that the stubble I told you yesterday, and we're going to have to be busy for a while. First, the manpower of the Jubilee House. ”
She stretched out her index finger, paused for a moment, and then said word by word: "The third aunt has already told me about the person she likes, and when the time comes, she will have to be placed in a few good places in the Qingxi Residence, and as for the rest, you can copy out a table of all the functional arrangements...... Originally, I wanted Yun'er to inquire, who walks around Cuiliuju the most these days and gives more gifts to Aunt Luo, Qinfang, you can go back and assign Yun'er to do it. With this, the next thing is much easier. ”
Seeing that Qin Fang and Hongluo were surprised at first, and then looked like they wanted to speak and stopped, Chen Lan didn't give them a chance to say what was in their hearts, and continued: "Second, it is what happened after me and my fourth brother. We don't need to change the manpower of our Splendid Pavilion, just keep it as it is, except for the three big ones on the fourth brother's side, but those small ones have to be searched, lest one person want to rub around him, and really do things but can't find anyone, Qin Fang, you pay attention to the idle in the house or the back streets. Third, Hongluo, after two ** and your godmother go with me to Baihezhuang. ”
"Miss, Sister Yun'er is here!"
She was giving instructions when she heard a voice outside, and after a while, as soon as the door curtain was lifted, Yun'er entered the room with a smile. Chen Lan looked at her angrily, and when he saw her sticking out her tongue, he came up and saluted obediently, and couldn't help but say angrily: "I went out for a walk without leaving a word again, I don't know if we worry about you?" ”
"Miss, the slave also wants to inquire about you." Yun'er flatteringly knelt down in front of Chen Lan's chair, tilted her head and said, "The slave maid happened to meet the magpie who went to the back to get the clean clothes, so she talked to her, and then I knew that Aunt Luo couldn't send the master in the morning, and it was Song Ge Lao with many high-ranking officials, she could only look at it from a distance, and then went to the Gongyuan to see the list." Luo Shizi was won, but the ranking was the last, Aunt Luo felt that the examiner was deliberately embarrassed, and she lost her temper for a while after she came back. ”
Chen Lan felt a long time ago that Luo Xu was probably able to win but not rank high in the game, so he just laughed when he heard it at this time. I only heard that Song Ge Lao took the high-ranking officials to send King Jin and Chen Ying, but she smelled a smell of momentum, and she was relieved when she thought about it in her heart.
If the emperor wants to investigate such a big case, how can he do it without making a noise?
