Chapter 229: Guess the Reason
In Flush County, the Murong family is a big family, but if you look at it in the whole Dachang, it is nothing.
Because of the relationship between Old Man Qiu, ordinary nobles are quite polite to their family, but those veteran nobles will not make friends with them.
Their family belongs to the imperial merchants, the so-called Shinong industry and commerce, the status of businessmen is very low, and the three generations of businessmen can not be scientific examinations, it is not easy to enter the business nationality, and it is even more difficult to get out of the business nationality.
If you earn a certain amount of money and have a certain social status, you will become a businessman.
If you want to do a big business, you must go to the government to make a document, so you have to change your business registration.
But the imperial merchants are different, they do not have the restriction that they cannot participate in the scientific examination, but the tax they pay will be two percent heavier than that of ordinary merchants, and even so, they can make a lot of money.
Murong Run couldn't make up his mind, so he simply took the post and found his father.
"Dad, the child received this invitation, but he didn't know how to respond." Murong Run handed the invitation to Master Murong.
"You are so old, you should be sensible, and you should handle the little thing like an invitation yourself. Why do you still ask Dad? As he spoke, Master Murong still took the invitation, but he could see a few big bronzing characters on his head clearly, and he almost didn't hold it steady.
"Yongguo Mansion?!! Run'er, how could the Yongguo Mansion send you an invitation? ”
Murong Run shook his head: "The child doesn't know." ”
This is a very simple invitation, which is to invite Murong Run to Wanning City as a guest, and it is a chrysanthemum banquet scheduled for two months later.
The invitation was already a big month ago, and it must have been sent quickly, so there was plenty of time.
There is no specific inviter, only that it is the invitation of Murong Run's son, and the payment is the official seal of the Yongguo Mansion.
It's like an invitation from the government to him.
Master Murong felt a toothache: "I'm afraid this is not fake?" ”
Murong Run couldn't make up his mind anymore.
"You'd better take it and ask your grandfather." Old Master Murong said.
So, Murong Run took the invitation to Qiu Mansion again, and Old Man Qiu took the invitation and read it for a while.
Looking at Murong Run's expression, his expression was also a little complicated: "Run'er, think about it carefully, when you went to Nanhe Town before, did you encounter any special people or things?" ”
Murong Run thought for a long time, but still shook his head: "It's really gone, and that's what I told you before." Grandpa, is there a problem with this invitation? ”
"There's no problem, this is the chapter of the Yongguo Mansion, and the handwriting is also commonly used by their housekeepers, not just imitated at random." This is where Old Man Qiu wonders.
The Yongguo Mansion is different from other nobles, and their family generally does not interact with other nobles, and is extremely low-key.
In particular, their family has had two queens, but there has never been a matter of foreign relatives interfering in politics, and there is no one in the court who serves as an important minister.
Yong Guogong used to be a general who went into battle to kill the enemy, and after he retired, he also raised flowers and birds with peace of mind, and some children didn't even hear of his name.
The Murong family is also very low-key, especially under the knock of Old Man Qiu, they did not have too much to do with those princes and nobles.
In that case, why did the Yongguo Mansion send out invitations?
Or to Murong Run, who is far away in Tonghua County?
Murong Run's eyes widened suddenly: "Grandpa, could it be-"
Old Man Qiu also reacted, if they had anything to make the nobles outside notice, it was only the fruit that Murong Run came back to send before.
Old Man Qiu packed two copies, one for the Taifu who is still in office today, who is his former colleague.
The other was given to Old Man Qiu's youngest daughter who was in the palace, which is now Concubine Jing.
Because before, Concubine Jing had written to her family, saying that she had a poor appetite and wanted to eat some hometown flavors.
Old Man Qiu took pity on his daughter and asked Old Madam Qiu to bring one into the palace.
