Chapter 619: Bargaining to dissolve the marriage
As an elder, Mrs. Xie is inconvenient to persuade more, and her old man talks too much, which seems to be a bully.
I had no choice but to agree, and when the princess set a date for her return, I would send someone to inform her.
Mrs. Ji agreed.
Even though the Hou Mansion is good, it is not as good as the East Palace! The crown princess's promise is equivalent to that of the crown prince, and of course she wants a more precise layer of protection.
Moreover, she subconsciously felt that the princess's guarantee was more reliable than that of these people in the Hou Mansion
Qi didn't say a word from beginning to end, and no one specifically consulted her. As for Qi himself, he didn't care so much.
Xie Yunshu was busy discussing with the crown prince about packing up the things he needed to bring for the southern tour, as well as how to arrange other affairs in the East Palace when they were not there, and he was also very busy every day.
Several Huangzhuang and Weiziling Manor are already making preparations for spring ploughing, which is a first-class important event and cannot be delayed.
Mama Chun and Fang Xiaorou's family also have to be guarded firmly, and they can't be allowed to have any excuses and opportunities to run out and make trouble.
On the other side of Qingyun Food Square, the shop managed by Liang Xuerong also has many things that Xie Yunshu needs to decide.
There is also the ranch in Zhangjiakou, although Steward Tang has passed, but he doesn't know what to do in the future, if he wants money and people, he has to do it with Xia Gong Bus and let him have someone to dock
Hearing that someone from the family said this, Xie Yunshu was also speechless for a while.
This second lady Ji has an idea, and it is too different.
However, since this is something that her grandmother and mother have agreed to, she will naturally not refuse.
The assurance that Second Lady Ji wanted, she might not be able to make her completely satisfied. But the matter has to be closed eventually.
Two days later, Xie Yunshu went to the Pingbei Hou Mansion and met Mrs. Ji.
The request made by Mrs. Ji Er was really unacceptable, she asked Xie Yunshu to ensure that her son was a Jinshi Yijia, and then he must be at least a bachelor of scripture when he entered the Hanlin Academy, and he should have the opportunity to show his face in front of the emperor within two years, and he must enter the household department or the official department in the next two years. Within five years to reach at least from the fourth rank of officials.
Don't say that Xie Yunshu was dumbfounded, but Old Lady Xie and Su Shi, who didn't know anything about the promotion and transfer of official positions in the court, both knew that Second Lady Ji was simply a lion with her mouth open.
Xie Yunshu rejected her in one mouthful: "Second Mrs. Ji really thinks so highly of me, I'm sorry, this can't be done!" ”
Second Mrs. Ji sneered: "You said it first, let me say whatever I want to say after I quit my family, I don't want to be around, that's what I want." ”
Xie Yunshu smiled "flutteringly", "Second Mrs. Ji, as far as you ask, I'm afraid that the emperor won't be able to do it." Isn't it a joke that the emperor can't do it, and you use it to embarrass us? ”
Second Mrs. Ji was unconvinced, "The emperor is the lord of the world, what is there that the emperor can't do?" Don't coax the crown princess! ”
Xie Yunshu said with a smile: "If Second Mrs. Ji doesn't believe it, why don't you go back and ask your brother-in-law, he is an official of the imperial court, and he naturally knows that the promotion and transfer of officials is not just for anyone to open his mouth, there is a set of rules and standards promulgated by the imperial court, and all officials must follow the rules!" ”
"This is an ordinary way, but you are the crown princess, and for the crown prince, such a trivial matter is just raising your hand."
"That's called selling officials and selling lords, Second Mrs. Ji, this is found out by the imperial court, and it is a big crime to quarrel and exterminate the clan! Aren't you crazy? I don't think I've heard this today! If you dare to talk nonsense again, try it! ”
"Even if our two families have decided to be married, but now my sister is really having a physical problem, and this family has to retreat. If you don't want to, then you just have to wait for ten or eight years! I can't say for sure! Our family can't tolerate the girl being wronged, so the son can't make any concubines and concubines, otherwise don't blame our family for being polite! ”
"If you quit your relatives well, in the end it is our family's problem, and the compensation will not be less than yours, if you want silver, we are willing to pay three thousand taels. If it is something else, if Ling Gongzi is really talented and learned, he will not be buried, and the opportunities he wants will be there, provided that he is worthy. This palace is a real heartfelt word, and there is no prevarication and perfunctory. It's just that if you don't believe it, this palace can't think about it. ”
"That's what the Xie family can do, Second Mrs. Ji think about it herself!"
Mrs. Ji: "." She didn't want to think about it at all, she had told the princess what to say, what else did she have to think about?
With the attitude of the crown princess, she may not necessarily give back to her.
Second Mrs. Ji suddenly regretted a little, she knew that she wouldn't call the princess here. As soon as the crown princess spoke for no reason, she felt a little scared, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to say what she wanted to say
"Then ask for the silver and give me the money."
She wanted her son's future, but she felt that what the crown princess said was the same as not saying it. What does it mean that as long as you are really talented, you will not be buried? Her son is naturally really talented and learned, and her brother-in-law is Shuntian Mansion Yin, who is also a member of the court, won't he take care of her son at that time? Where is the use of such a useless guarantee as the crown princess?
It's better to have affordable silver.
Three thousand taels
Second Mrs. Ji couldn't help but get excited again when she thought of such a large sum of silver.
Other people's families dissolved the marriage contract even if they gave compensation, at most it was a few dozen taels, and no matter how rich the family was, it would be great to be able to give a few hundred taels.
Three thousand taels. Worthy of being the crown princess!
Second Mrs. Ji didn't know what attitude to treat Xie Yunshu for a while.
Old Mrs. Xie and Su Shi's hearts skipped a beat when they heard this, and they felt their hearts ache.
Three thousand taels
Shu'er, this is too big!
Xie Yunshu had no opinion at all, and immediately ordered An Tong to take out three thousand taels of silver tickets, as well as a note written in black and white, and smiled slightly: "Second Mrs. Ji pressed her handprint and took this silver ticket, so that we don't owe anyone anything." There are two copies of this note, one for our family. ”
Second Mrs. Ji also knew a few words, frowned slightly, took the note and looked at it.
didn't say anything excessive, but just explained the reason why the two sides quit their relatives, and whether the Xie family gave three thousand taels of silver as compensation.
Second Mrs. Ji was a little reluctant, just write the reason for her resignation, how could she also write about the three thousand taels of silver? It seemed like she was very greedy
It's just awkward.
Xie Yunshu could see her thoughts, and said with a smile: "Second Mrs. Ji, this is three thousand taels of silver, not three hundred taels or thirty taels, although this is what our Xie family is willing to take out, but there must be an explanation of where to go, right?" Isn't that excessive? Besides, with this note in your hand, who has nothing to show to others, it's just that you know and I know both of us. If there is nothing to do in the future, this word will not be visible to outsiders. ”
