Chapter 759 There is no trivial matter in the back house
In fact, for Cheng Yanjin, it is the same whether or not to invite him to drink, after all, he is Li Xiang's father-in-law, and sooner or later there will be a day when he will be invited to drink, otherwise some people will say that Li Xiang does not understand etiquette.
But Chang'an City is a nest of right and wrong, if Li Xiang doesn't invite Cheng to bite the gold, then there will definitely be rumors going out, and it will be even more excessive, even if the invitation is slow, I'm afraid some people will feel that something is wrong.
Now this point in time can be said to be just right, Li Xiang's every move after returning to Beijing was watched by others, and when he came back from drinking from the eldest grandson, Li Xiang invited his father-in-law to a banquet in the East Palace, although this is a bit out of line, it is said that he should visit Cheng's house.
But the people of the capital can see clearly, usually all kinds of good things are sent to Cheng's house, it is like a mountain of gold and silver, it doesn't matter if you go to visit now, it is nothing more than to give one more gift.
If you are a poor son-in-law, then you must get your father-in-law to go to the father-in-law, if you don't go, some people will definitely say that you pick the door, but the old Cheng family's expenses all year round Li Xiang bears more than half of it, will anyone say that he picks the door?
What's more, today's East Palace is not what it used to be, Li Chengqian has also recovered his full strength in the court, in order to maintain his identity, he will not often invite people to drink in the East Palace, after all, he still cares about Li Shimin's thoughts, the old man is still in power, if you often feast in the East Palace, then what are you thinking in your heart? Isn't it possible to want to come back to Xuanwu Gate for a whole time?
So going to the East Palace to drink is still a very glorious thing, the last time was when the eldest princess returned to Beijing, that is, Xiao Shougui's mother, Cheng Yanjin is also the second family.
After receiving the invitation from His Royal Highness the Prince, although Cheng Yanjin was not very happy on his face, he was actually happy in his heart, his son-in-law had been back in Beijing for two days, and he didn't come here to visit, and there was no other way to say it, although he said that he didn't care, but he was still staring at this matter in his heart.
"Look at it, look at it, you are all chewing your tongues, and those two boys are in trouble in the northwest, and there is a problem between me and His Royal Highness the Taisun, where is the problem? Isn't it just that you're busy when you come back? Help his father deal with his little wife's affairs, help the eldest grandson and old man deal with his son's affairs, our family is peaceful, and this is my turn. ”
When Cheng Biting Jin got the invitation, he deliberately went to the back house to shout for a while, he couldn't hear what outsiders said during this period of time, but he heard the words of these female rolls at home very clearly, Chang'an City has no shortage of people who chew the root of their tongues, Cheng Biting Jin's words also let these people see clearly, our old Cheng family is still standing.
"My lord, how can you say these words? Although we and the prince's family are in-laws, the duty of the monarch and the minister should still be kept, otherwise it will make the son-in-law embarrassed. ”
After Mrs. Cheng heard this, she was so frightened that she hurriedly let everyone in the family go out, even if Cheng Yanjin has always been open-mouthed, but there are some things that can't be said nonsense, the eldest grandson Wuji's family doesn't matter, almost the entire Chang'an City knows, but the matter of the prince's little wife, this can't be said casually.
This era is about filial piety, your father found you a new aunt, not only can you not object, then you should strongly agree, this is the filial piety to the father, if you come back to deal with this new aunt, reluctant to some people to criticize you, raising a son is to take care of Lao Tzu's bed?
"What's so embarrassing about this, do you think I'm idle these days? Qian Ping, the original head of the East Palace, went out of the city and went all the way to the south. ”
Cheng Yanjin said nonchalantly, but he still lowered his voice, after all, it is related to the royal family, and you have to be careful when you should be careful, so as not to be caught.
After Mrs. Cheng heard this, her face was also surprised, there have been rumors outside for a long time, the prince is very concerned about this new concubine, Li Xiang has only been back for a few days, has he already made the prince change his opinion?
"Our uncle has always been very concerned about the affairs of the court, and he is also quite capable, how can he be so capable of the affairs of the back house?"
Mrs. Cheng was still in charge of the tutorial biting gold just now, and didn't let Cheng biting gold take care of these things, but she couldn't hold back her curiosity.
Cheng Yanjin looked at his mother-in-law a little speechlessly, you women have always thought that only you are proficient in the affairs of the house, in fact, if you want to drill the camp well, you will definitely not be worse than you to deal with.
"Madame's words are wrong, in fact, there is no obvious dividing line between the affairs of the former dynasty and the harem, it is nothing more than a means, as long as the means are deep, anything can be in place, our son-in-law has all kinds of abilities above the court, and I am afraid that no one can stop what he wants to do."
Cheng Yanjin said some big truths again, it is true that the affairs of the former dynasty and the harem are not on the same track, but everything is the same, as long as you have brains, then you will not suffer anywhere, it is nothing more than a waste of time.
That Aunt Fan thought that she had a status, so she began to be arrogant, but she and Li Xiang were not in the same rank, she only needed a little dialing, Li Chengqian himself was also a smart person, and he would soon be able to figure out this matter.
Even if Aunt Fan's team Li Chengqian is sincere, according to Cheng Yanjin's thoughts, Li Xiang will definitely not keep this woman.
When she heard Cheng Yanjin say this, Mrs. Cheng's face showed a look of surprise, could it be that Li Xiang wanted to assassinate this woman?
"If you women just have long hair and short knowledge, no matter how powerful our son-in-law is, he can't do anything to his aunt, and he won't dare to do this under the pressure of filial piety."
Cheng Biting Jin rarely shows off in front of his wife, usually gives people the impression that his limbs are developed and his mind is simple, but at this moment, seeing his daughter-in-law with a confused look, Cheng Biting Jin's heart has been greatly satisfied.
"Then how do you say that he can't keep Aunt Fan, there is another way?"
Mrs. Cheng's curiosity is really aroused at this time, and now the people outside are preparing, and after a while, Cheng Biting Jin will go to the East Palace, and Mrs. Cheng also hopes to let Cheng Biting Jin explain in this moment of kung fu, which woman doesn't like gossip, especially about the royal gossip or her own in-laws.
