Shen Liang shook his head, the grapevine was not to be believed, he felt that the emperor's move must be to paralyze the new emperor, and the new emperor was not a fuel-efficient lamp, knowing that if the emperor gave birth to a son, it would inevitably be the same as back then.

So the new emperor must have used some kind of conspiracy to make the emperor unable to produce offspring.

It's just that these are Shen Liang's personal guesses, and there is no evidence to support them at all.

"The ministers have always liked the new and hated the old, and the emperor is too old and has lost the value of investment, these ministers are also seeing the wind and steering, thinking about the holy will all day long, knowing that the new emperor must be dissatisfied with us old nobles, so they change their ways to find fault."

Shen Liang touched his chin and said: "The Emperor Taishang and we are all yesterday's yellow flowers, just like the old Zhu Huang, which is disliked by the new emperor, and it is estimated that my master is the same." ”

Jia Zheng asked curiously, "Baoyu, what are you muttering here?" I told you not to get too close to Fan Fucui, did you listen? ”

Shen Liang hurriedly said: "Father, I think we have to make a choice, either firmly stand on the side of the old emperor or firmly stand on the side of the new emperor. ”

Jia Zheng picked up the tea bowl on the table, and when he heard this, he was about to splash Shen Liang's face, "Stinky boy, what are you talking nonsense, what kind of wall-riding faction, you say this about your father?" ”

Shen Liang hurriedly changed his words: "It's not the wall-riding faction, it's the wall-head grass, the wall-head grass is the most hateful, no matter which side wins, it won't end well in the end." ”

Jia Zheng didn't pursue Shen Liang's words, sighed and said: "I don't understand, if I hadn't sent your sister to the palace at the beginning, I just wanted to show loyalty to the new emperor, but ......"

Shen Liang continued: "However, the new emperor doesn't appreciate it at all, and Dad's operation is like dancing for a blind man." ”

Although Shen Liang's words were ugly, they were also true.

Jia Yuanchun has been in the palace for many years, but she is still a female history, and there is no promotion at all.

Jia Zheng spent money to inquire many times, and Jia Yuanchun handed over the words, she hadn't even seen what the emperor looked like.

Shen Liang knew that in a few years, Jia Yuanchun would be lucky with shit, and he would be appreciated by Emperor Longqian, and he would be crowned a virtuous concubine, and Jiafu would also follow the scenery for a while.

But the plot took a sharp turn for the worse, Jia Yuanchun didn't know why he died violently, and even Wang Ziteng hiccuped.

According to the current trend, it should be that the Emperor Taishang has made a move, and Jia Yuanchun and Wang Ziteng are involved.

Shen Liang scratched his head, "It's too complicated, father, why don't you take my sister out, the political struggle is too dangerous, and if you make a mistake, you will never recover, let's live honestly." ”

Jia Zheng drank tea with his head bored, spit out the tea leaves and said: "You think Lao Tzu doesn't want to, but this old lady has the final say, and it is also the old lady's intention to send your sister into the palace at the beginning, according to her old man's words, there are people in the court who are good officials, in case she is favored by Emperor Longqian, even if the Jia family declines, you will have a guarantee in the future, right?" ”

Shen Liang was dumbfounded when he heard this, feeling that Jia Yuanchun entered the palace in order to leave a guarantee for Jia Baoyu.

If Jia Yuanchun knew, would he cry and faint in the toilet.

This is proper patriarchy.

No wonder in the future, when the concubine was provincial, she would say, "You sent me to that unsightly place." ”

Shen Liang touched his nose, "Then there's really no way?" ”

Jia Zheng shook his head and said: "The rules in the palace are extremely strict, and you have to go through several checkpoints to enter and exit. ”

As soon as he heard Jia Zheng say this, Shen Liang knew that letting Jia Yuanchun out of the palace was completely out of the palace.

Let's not talk about the cumbersomeness of the procedure, just because he spent so much money at the beginning, Mrs. Shi would not give up.

More than 10,000 taels of silver, thrown into the water, you have to hear a sound, don't you?

Shen Liang is now soft-spoken, he doesn't even have the most basic right to speak in Jiafu, and speaking is equivalent to farting, so he can only use the tiger skin of the old lady and Jia Zheng as a banner.

Jia Zheng asked suddenly: "In Lord Liu's mansion, you asked Wei Zaode to write so many words and say that you want to open a bookstore, is it true?" ”

Shen Liang shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I was about to tell my father, the idea of opening a bookstore was also improvised, and it was idle anyway." ”

Jia Zheng looked serious: "Ridiculous! Now is the critical moment for reading, don't make these messes, the silver family has it, it won't be short of you, reading is a serious thing. ”

Shen Liang began to cry out: "Father, the family is rich, but the money is not given to me, I have a monthly case of 5 taels of silver a month, and I will buy two books and it will be gone, what kind of study and what kind of governance will I talk about?" ”

Shen Liang is worried about the start-up capital, and Jia Yun has already begun to urge.

Recruiting homeless people, buying infrastructure materials, and recruiting craftsmen, the seven hundred taels had already been spent, and Jia Yun even took out the 100 taels of silver that Shen Liang rewarded him, and just like that, he still owed a lot of debts.

In the absence of money, Jia Yun will be chased and killed by the money of Yinzi.

When Jia Zheng heard this, he frowned: "What book do you want to buy, can you spend 5 taels of silver a month?" ”

During the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was a large inflow of silver from abroad, which led to a great decline in the purchasing power of silver.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, one tael of silver was worth 1,000 Wen, and in the period of Emperor Longqian, one tael of silver was only worth 500 Wen, or even lower.

And an ordinary person consumes about 6 stone of grain a year.

If it is a family of three, it will cost nearly 20 taels of silver to buy food a year, not including clothes, carriages and horses.

If it is in the countryside, the cost is less, and if it is a person living in the city, a family of three needs at least 30 taels of silver a year to have enough food and clothing.

Shen Liang's 5 taels a month is 60 taels a year, which seems to be a lot, but it is not much.

There are many relatives around him, there are eight or nine small servants alone, and there are as many as one or twenty maids and servants, and these people usually have to pay money.

So Shen Liang's silver was not enough at all.

Jia Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "Take 5 taels from my routine every month and give it to you, so you don't have to do that cheap livelihood." ”

"Dad, Aunt Xue's family is also in business, why don't you say that they are cheap?"

Jia Zhengqi's beard was cocked, and he directly rewarded Shen Liang with a brain: "Can it be the same?" Your Aunt Xue's family is an imperial merchant and works for the emperor, and the ancestor of the Xue family is a slave of Yingzong, a person who specializes in collecting wealth for Yingzong, otherwise where would Emperor Yingzong get the money to reward the ministers and attract the old department to follow him to restore. ”

Shen Liang came out of Jia Zheng's study dejectedly, and Jia Zheng gave the clearest refusal to the fact that he wanted to go out of the house to do business.

He is resolutely not allowed to leave the house, and he is absolutely not allowed to do business in the name of Jiafu.
