"The lady said that today's girl is Liu Shiyi Niang?"

Hearing this news, Fang's palms pressed on the placket of his clothes, his eyes widened, and he looked frightened and inexplicable, and listened to Xuanji's words: "Although the Ming Mansion has been away from Beijing for several years, I don't recognize the Liu family's ladies, and I asked someone to warn you that you are trivial, just because you can see that the little lady is from an extraordinary background, but after the siege is dispersed, I just happened to see Liu Changshi asking the little lady if she is eleven Niang, and she was called Aya by the courtesy, and the Ming Mansion will not admit Liu Changshi wrong." The Fang clan became more and more shaky.

Although she is domineering, the target is only ordinary people and people with similar status, and she still doesn't dare to be arrogant in the face of real prestige, not to mention Liu Shiniang, who has been in the limelight in recent years, not to mention Yingyang Zhenren, just because this is the granddaughter of the Queen Mother's sisters, Fang's family has another 10,000 guts, and she doesn't dare to offend, thinking that if it weren't for Yu Wensheng's police, her whip would be whipped at Liu Shiniang today, how could she not be frightened at this time.

But even if he hadn't done anything, Fang Clan remembered her disrespectful words, and he was still panicked: "How is this good. ”

I thought it was rampant, it turned out to be a paper tiger, Xuanji was light-hearted, but she smiled slightly on her lips: "Fortunately, the lady didn't offend any more and didn't make things out of control...... The Ming Mansion let the concubine remind the lady that she should personally apologize to the Liufu, and the posture should naturally be extremely humble and sincere, Liu Shiniang accused you of that day, how can it not be a warning, if the lady really beat the businessman and seriously injured him, alarming the Yushitai, He Zhanggu's position is afraid that it will not be able to be preserved, even if there is a chance to fill the vacancy in the future, it will be useless in the career of Yu Shi. ”

These words made the Fang family even more afraid, where was there still unwillingness, only chattering.

Xuanji smiled slightly: "The lady doesn't need to worry too much, as long as the circle turns well, this matter may even turn into luck." ”

Seeing that the Fang clan could hardly press the urgency, Xuanji became more and more tidy: "The Ming Mansion is transferred to Chang'an Order, and the whole Tuowei Xiangguo vigorously recommends it, your father and daughter are quite trusted by Mao Xiangguo, and in terms of it, they are also in the same camp as the Ming Mansion, if He Zhanggu can be promoted to the official official of the Six Ministries, the Ming Mansion is also happy to see it, so I specially reminded it." ”

These words made Fang's heart extremely comforted, and he hurriedly flattered: "The grace of the Ming Mansion is bound to be remembered by the concubine and her grandson." ”

"The sage because of the history of Xie Thorn, Mao Xiangguo has a lot of vigilance, even if Xiangguo has the heart to carry He Zhanggu, now he has to be cautious, if He Zhanggu can travel extensively, consolidate the foundation for Mao Xiangguo, Mao Xiangguo will pay more attention, and when the situation improves in the future, he can first think of He Zhanggu."

These words convinced Fang's heart, but he didn't know how to travel widely and consolidate the foundation for Mao Wei. Not to mention her background, even her husband He Shaozu, who is also a son of Hanwei, who usually flatters and flatters those who make friends with her is nothing more than a little poor, and it is a joke to tie up Mao Xiangguo, and it is impossible to have any help, those prominent princes and nobles with big surnames will not buy the account of a clerk and the old servants of the Prime Minister's house, even the second and third class families, He Shaozu and his wife have spent a lot of effort to take the initiative to make friends, and people love to ignore them.

"Jing Zhaoliu is not only valued by the saint, but also trusted by the Queen Mother, if the lady can take the opportunity of this visit to apologize to maintain contact with the Liu Mansion, and Mrs. Tai and Xiao Junjun and even the little ladies can say a few words, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is also very decent, and I am worried that no one will take the initiative to show goodwill?" Of course, Xuanji didn't think that the Fang clan would be able to climb to the prestigious family, suggesting that she would set her goal in the range of the middle and lower clans.

"If there are those who were originally fighting for Xue and Feng Erxiang among the people who made friends with the husband and wife, as long as one or two pieces of news were found, it would be beneficial to Wei and Mao, and it would also be a credit." Xuanji clicked to this point, and no longer had the leisure to talk to Fang's family again, asking people to send off guests, seeing Fang's excited and ambitious look, Xuanji raised his eyebrows lightly.

He Shaozu, with your ability to drill the camp, it should not disappoint people, I will pave this road of green clouds for you, but you can cherish it, I hope you will one day be in a high position, and then ...... It is possible to cause a big disaster, otherwise the body of an ant, at most, will be a loss of office, wouldn't it be too cheap for you?

After the Fang family went home, he immediately told He Shaozu that Yu Wensheng was transferred through the mouth of the concubine, and the man first broke out in a cold sweat because the Fang family almost whipped Yingyang Zhenren's proud protégé Mrs. Wei Tai in the palm of the pearl, but his own interests all depended on such a Yue family, when did he dare to accuse the Fang family of being ignorant and arrogant, and after listening to Fang's words completely, he secretly wondered in his heart: This Diao woman has finally opened his mind.

It turned out that He Shaozu saw Pei Xiang in trouble, and immediately discussed with his mother to poison his wife Pei Liuniang, in case he was implicated by the Yue family, but his mother was frightened and showed clues, but Pei Liuniang saw the flaws, and went to the palace gate to kneel and complain, exposing the conspiracy of his mother and son. Mao Xiangguo finally arranged a position for him as a clerk.

With He Shaozu's ambition, of course, he is not willing to succumb to miscellaneous goods, but his father-in-law's status is limited, and Mao Wei can't pay too much attention to him, and he has the heart to make friends with the rest of the magnates, but there has been no progress over the years.

At this time, seeing that the Fang family offered to go to Liufu to curry favor, He Shaozu was of course overjoyed, although it was undoubtedly a fool's dream to really climb Liufu, but it was man-made, and it was not whimsical to use Liufu as a bridge to travel in the lower world, and he had more use to really win Mao Xiangguo's favor.

So he immediately made a move for Fang's family: "The apology can be prepared richly, it can't be gold and silver vulgar things, Liu Shiniang is good at painting, you might as well prepare some precious four treasures of the study, high-grade Danqing pigments, in this way, I still know how to make it, I will prepare the apology, but ......" is just shy in the bag, and needs Fang's help.

"I still have tens of thousands of dollars in hand, but I need to prepare for the New Year......"

"Although I can make the pigments by myself, the raw materials such as green pollen and mica powder also need to be good, and the cinnabar is even better, but the market is not ordinary, let alone ...... At present, one of the good inkstones in the Qingxiao Pavilion is worth more than 100,000 yuan. "He Shaozu is obviously suspicious of Fang's small weapon.

"Then what should I do, you also know the situation at home, the Ah family is sick every three or five days, and I don't know how much ...... to eat" When it came to Qian Yin, Fang's face was resentful: "Lang Jun's little moon is not enough for Ah Jia's medicinal diet for a few days!" My savings for this idea are all dowry, and I only have 10,000 dollars a year. ”

The Fang family was originally a ministry, and Mao Wei was generous, not only put a good book, but also allocated a good field and a shop to reward the Fang family for a living, Fang's brother is now running a grain and rice shop, and the Fang family has a dowry field harvest sales office that is convenient, but it is only 10,000 yuan, and after removing the expenses of a family, now there are tens of thousands of savings, and there are more than Fang's family managers.

"I have to tell my father-in-law and uncle to borrow money first, and when I am in the future, I will definitely repay it with interest." He Shaozu was cheeky, in order to let the Fang family relax and go back to his parents' house to borrow money, he tried his best this night, and swore sweet words and swore an alliance, which made the Fang family so uncomfortable, in the end, he thought that only her husband was a scribe in the whole family, and he would have to make a difference in his career in the future, as long as her husband was one day a minister, he was afraid that he would not have glory and wealth, so he was willing to go back to his parents' house to persuade his father and brother, Fang boldly bit his teeth and sold an acre of land, so as to raise two hundred yuan of compensation money.

Eleven Niang didn't expect that Fang's family would come to the door to make amends, and she didn't expect the other party to be so generous, a set of Zihao pens is nothing, those boxes of head Zhu, Erzhu, and Zhu fat pigments are knowledgeable at a glance, and they are also the green pine welcome rose purple inkstone of Qingxiao Pavilion, she only went to see it not long ago, and she couldn't buy it without 100,000 yuan.

Seeing that the Fang clan groveled, not to mention the crime, he even blamed himself again and again for being arrogant and arrogant, thanks to the reprimand and vigilance of Eleven Niang, he was able to avoid making a big mistake in the future.

When things go wrong, there must be demons, and Eleven Niang only feels that the situation is weird.

The gift is so favorable, it should be He Shaozu's idea, Eleven Niang asked casually: "This three-color cinnabar is so pure, but it is rare on the market, usually even I rarely buy the lining to my heart's content, so I have to make it by hand, although it is better than the market, it is not as good as this three-color, I don't know where the lady bought it?" ”

Sure enough, I heard that He Shaozu made it himself.

"It's nothing, the little lady will need it in the future, just give an explanation, the concubine listens to the boast of the grandson, he has no other strengths, because he also likes calligraphy and painting, and by chance he has seen a few ancient recipes, after years of trial production, the rest of the colors can also be produced."

Does this mean to have a long-term relationship?

Shi Niang raised her eyebrows: Interesting, it seems that He Shaozu is not satisfied with the position of Zhanggu.

It's good to be ambitious.

So she smiled slightly: "Really? Then you will have to worry about it in the future. ”
