Here, Princess Zhou thanked Chen Bin and said to Lily: "Your two little brothers are both beautiful, and they are really beautiful and nurturing." ”

There are beauties along the Baishui River, and most of the young people in Qingliu Town are not bad, but if they get to the capital, they are much inferior, especially Princess Zhou is dignified and beautiful, and she is polite to speak like this.

Lily said: "Their children's family only needs to be smarter, and if they have good clothes to dress up, there is nothing bad to look at." ”

Qing Song whispered, "I think I'm pretty good-looking." ”

The Zhu family was born well, none of their sisters and brothers are ugly, Qingsong feels that although he is not as good as his eldest brother-in-law, he is also first-class in the town, why is it so bad in the eldest sister's mouth?

Princess Zhou couldn't help laughing: "I also think you are good-looking." "A lady of the princess's age loves clever and pleasing children the most. Qingsong is a child of a relative's family, born well, and has a sweet mouth and loves to smile, the princess naturally treats it for a while, and after talking for a while, she asks the princess to clean up the house for Qingsong and Wenwa: "It's next to the study outside, and your brother used to study."

When I lived in the house, I cleaned up two rooms. ”

The princess smiled: "Yes, I have already sent people down to clean up." ”

Qing Song said happily: "Thank you Niangniang! We have been living in Brother Chen's house these days, although he does not dislike us, we are also afraid of disturbing his house." "It's not easy to live in Beijing, Chen Bin is a brocade cloth and a thousand households, far from the status of walking sideways in Beijing, there is only a small two-entry courtyard at home, he has a lady, and two sons, hire a few maids and small servants The family is already living next to each other, this time bring Xue Niang and Qingsong and Wenwa back

Go, Mrs. Chen is really a head and two big.

Rao is Qingsong and Wenwa are deliberately restrained, how naughty their two and a half children are, they disturbed Chen Niangzi with a headache in a few days, and threw the housework to Xue Niang to take care of, and she was bedridden.

Chen Bin knows that he is at a loss, he has not returned to Beijing for a few years, Chen Niangzi takes care of affairs at home, and raises two sons, he is happy outside, and he also brings a snow lady back to stab Chen Niangzi's eyes, no wonder the lady wants to lose her temper. Here Princess Zhou smiled, didn't mention the matter of the residence, and led Qingsong to say some interesting things about the countryside. Song Haonian has scruples, afraid of causing the princess to be sad, and only picks some easy words in daily speech, Qingsong is only more mischievous than Song Haonian, and he has no scruples, and he will talk about it after a while

A lot of things, such as going up the mountain to dig birds and going down to the river to fish, etc., provoked the princess to close her mouth.

Princess Zhou naturally knew that if the family was rich, Qingsong would never do these things in the family again, so she asked again: "I heard that you are still literate, and your eldest sister's words are also taught by you?" Qingsong said proudly: "When I was a child, I went to the town every day to listen to Mr. Xuetang's lectures, and they read and wrote in them, so I recognized them outside, and went home to teach my sisters, and the eldest sister was willing to learn a few, and the second and third sisters were stupid, but they refused to learn." But now they know the benefits of literacy, and they have learned it

Come, the eldest sister taught them to settle accounts, and they learned faster than me. ”

Princess Zhou said: "Your eldest sister is a capable daughter-in-law, Brother Xuan has been in the countryside for a few years, thanks to her taking care of the family." ”

Qingsong also said good things about Song Haonian, how capable the eldest brother-in-law is, how considerate of his relatives, and the princess and the princess praise Song Haonian and his wife.

Wenwa and Chen Bin couldn't interject, and laughed on the side, Song Haonian just had to play as if it were true, Lily couldn't listen to it, and interrupted Qingsong and said, "You can say it." ”

Qingsong said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of being annoyed by my mother, I am the only one in my family, I originally thought that in the future, my sisters will marry, if my brother-in-law treats them badly, I will call the door to vent my sister's anger!"

Princess Zhou said curiously: "Then have you ever called the door?"

Qing Song sighed: "Later, my brother-in-law was so tall and strong, where could I beat him?"

Princess Zhou laughed, and Qingsong said: "Fortunately, my brother-in-law treats my sister very well, I just want to pick him, and I can't find anything wrong." He praised Song Haonian and Lily as husband and wife inside and out, and Princess Zhou couldn't hear it, thinking of her own mother's family, she felt that such a brother was better than her dirty father, so she gave Qingsong relief: "I also thought that if my daughter-in-law is stupid."

Kan woman, how am I going to bully her, where did I think that your eldest sister is so clever, I actually see her in everything. ”

Lily immediately blushed with shame, and it was not easy to talk about the princess, so she first hated Qingsong: "You are less frivolous, and you dare to talk nonsense in front of your mother, and you will say some childish words, so that your mother will not dislike you and be ashamed." ”

Princess Zhou can't say that she is satisfied with Lily, nor can she say that she dislikes it, her son likes it, and Lily gave birth to Ruzhen again, so the princess really doesn't dislike her.

Princess Zhou said to Lily: "It's okay, children's words also have the benefits of children's words." When I heard this, my heart was opened. ”

Laughing again, the princess wanted to take a break, Song Haonian and the others hurriedly retired, and went back to Gantang Courtyard, Wenwa quietly pulled Qingsong and said: "That's the princess, where did you have the courage to say those words?"

It's more than usual.

Qingsong said: "You don't understand this, the princess is the fairy in the sky, I am a mortal boy, just offend her old man, where will her old man really be angry with me?"

Wenwa nodded: "It's this reason." And he said, "I just thought that if the princess pulls you out to play the board, I will divide half for you." Chen Bin heard it and nodded secretly: Xu Caiwen has ordinary qualifications, and he allowed him to be a brocade guard, in order to find someone for Li Qingsong who can be relied on with confidence. Seeing that Song Haonian returned to Beijing, Song Niangzi's identity rose with it, and Li Qingsong had no foundation in Jinyiwei, so he had to be loyal

people are relieved to be around.

Within two days, the palace personally issued an edict to give Chen Bin a house and his wife a fate.

In the past, when the emperor was rectifying the officialdom, he confiscated a large number of mansions, and now King Xin chose one of them to thank the people who escorted his son back to the capital, which is not an exaggeration.

The edict was to believe that the princess and the queen begged, but the princess was silent that day, but she really kept Chen Bin's matter in mind.

Chen Bin was afraid: Qingsong spoke so boldly, if he was not careful, he would be regarded as begging for something, and the royal family would not care about it this time, and he must not be indulged like this in the future.

Therefore, taking advantage of the rest of the day, he called Qingsong to his ear to mention his life, but Qingsong only took it seriously.

Chen Bin said with a straight face: "Do you say that it is easy for your eldest sister to be the daughter-in-law of the royal family?

Qing Song was taken aback, and then he listened to Chen Bin's words, and from now on, he was cautious in his words and deeds, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense.

But he said that he was resting on this day, Song Haonian was summoned by the emperor into the palace to speak, and the emperor saw him in the warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, and the prince was also there.

The last time they met, he only came back, and it was the first time they met, and it was inconvenient to ask many things, the emperor only asked Song Haonian how he had been all the way and how he had been doing these years.

The emperor asked carefully about the harvest of the land in the past few years in the Song Dynasty, how the government collected taxes, how to levy forced labor, and asked how the prices were.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse is not the straw bale emperor who is trapped in the deep palace and asks the people why they don't eat minced meat, he almost single-handedly pulled the soon-to-be-defeated Ming back from the death line and created today's prosperous world.

For example, when Song Haonian talked about the price of grain, vegetables, and salt in Qingliu Town and Taiping County, he could immediately tell the price in Beijing in the past one or two months, and said to the prince with a smile: "In this way, the Taiping County Order has done quite well." ”

The crown prince said: "It's all the father's wisdom. ”

The emperor frowned: "You are the crown prince, how can you learn from those sour Confucians, and pat me on the back all day." However, the prince's thoughts were different from those of Sour Confucianism after all: "The second brother just talked about the price of salt, and salt has been a big problem in the past dynasties. The father first improved the salt drying method, and the salt fields in the East China Sea and the South China Sea produced countless salts, and set up a salt bureau to specialize in official salt, dozens

During the years, the price of salt never got out of the control of the imperial court, so my son said that his father was wise. ”

The emperor nodded and said: "This is what the prince should think, in the future, this country will be passed on to you, and your sons will go overseas to expand their territory, if their horizons are too narrow, it will not work." ”

The father and son talked about it, and then asked Song Haonian: "Brother Xuan'er, how are the people doing now?"

Song Haonian thought for a while before saying: "Now the taxes and conscriptions are light, and there are no officials who come to the countryside to do their prestige. ”

This is the advantage of being born in a prosperous era, if you are born in a world of decline and chaos, I am afraid that no matter how industrious the peasants are, they will not be able to withstand the ferocity of the officials and the tyranny of the expropriation.

The emperor smiled: "That's why I'm at ease." ”

The emperor said casually: "I heard Changping say that your daughter-in-law asked Zhaoren to take her to the women's school to give a lecture?"

Song Haonian hurriedly said: "My daughter-in-law refused to go, for fear that she would delay those female students, and Zhaoren would take her to death, I also said that it was better to go and relax, so she was willing to go." ”

After thinking about it, he said: "Originally, when Ruzhen was not born, I had a quarrel with my daughter-in-law about his future schooling. ”

The emperor thought to himself that the woman's family was soft-hearted and refused to let the child go to school, so he smiled and said: "You are the head of the family, you should be more dignified, you should let the child go to school, don't listen to the woman's words." Song Haonian smiled: "It's not like this. At that time, I didn't know my own background, so I thought that my children could recognize a few words, and they would become blind without opening their eyes, and I didn't want to send them to school. Who knew that my daughter-in-law had to say that she could only be sensible by studying, so she forced me to agree to send them to school.

Uncle, tell me, she messed with me for a child who hadn't yet been born, and I became an unreasonable person. ”

The prince laughed: "In my opinion, this time my brother and sister did the right thing!"

The emperor couldn't help laughing, and changed his words: "You are the head of the family, you should be more sensible than a woman, and since your daughter-in-law is reasonable, you listen to her." "This grandfather said that the east and the west all day, when the interest came up, the emperor now called someone to break the bamboo strips, and Song Haonian sat opposite the bamboo basket, Song Haonian was dumbfounded, or the prince smiled: "You don't know, before my father and the emperor were established, I loved carpentry work the most, and now I have never put it down, Valhalla."

The National History Museum is a model made by the emperor himself for the Ministry of Industry. ”

Song Haonian originally worshiped the emperor, and now he is even more devotive: "Uncle is really a man of God, not only can he take care of such a big country, but he also does carpentry work well, even if he is placed in our countryside, he is also the top land to support his family." ”

Like the prince, he can only study, and he can't farm to support his family. The emperor laughed: He is now supporting a population of 40,000 in the Ming Dynasty, but is he not the pillar of the world's largest family?
