Chapter 163: The Squeamish Bag Princess and the Rough General 18
In the end, the emperor still left the last dignity for Prince Gong's mansion, and only announced to the public that the lord of Roujia was seriously ill because of smallpox and died in another courtyard.
As for the court filth that once happened, it was crushed to death, and there was no leakage at all.
The lord of Roujia in Prince Gong's Mansion is completely absent in the eyes of the world.
Chen Mengwan stood in the remote courtyard of the Song Mansion, listening to the sound of Prince Gong's Mansion transporting the coffin for her on the street across the wall, and couldn't help but be a little stunned.
She felt as if she had been erased from this world, and she could only live without a name and a surname.
The subordinates of the Song Mansion didn't know who she used to be, they only knew that she was sent in by a small sedan chair and didn't bring any belongings.
And Song Heng didn't arrange any name for her.
Therefore, the subordinates are polite on the surface, but in fact they are lazy in everything.
Even if there was no water in the kettle, Chen Mengwan had to ask for it three times before someone went to the kitchen to get it.
The courtyard was deserted, and no one was willing to sing to relieve her boredom.
It's not at all the same as the life of Prince Gong's Mansion.
Chen Mengwan felt a huge gap and was very lonely.
Fortunately, there is also Song Heng, who will come over every night to sit with her for a while, so that she can be relieved.
……
On this day, Shen Beizhan happened to go out of the palace with a subordinate.
The subordinate sighed: "The book is right, only women and villains are difficult to raise." ”
Shen Beizhan: "What's wrong?" ”
The subordinate complained: "Isn't it the pimpy mother-in-law and stubborn mother in my family? One cries all day to be housekeeper, and the other refuses to let go of power. My family is just that little bit of broken copper and iron, what is there to rush to manage? Every day the noise is restless, and I don't want to go back. ”
Shen Beizhan chuckled, but he didn't talk about other people's family affairs.
The subordinate also said: "My mother-in-law is also outrageous, isn't it ridiculous to say that if you don't let her be a housekeeper, you don't love her?" How can the relationship between husband and wife be measured by these? ”
Shen Beizhan thought thoughtfully: "What you said makes sense. ”
The subordinate seemed to meet a bosom friend, and spread his hands and said, "Right! ”
So when Shen Beizhan returned to the mansion, the first thing he did was to call Steward Zhang to count all the property in the general's mansion.
Cha Jiu looked at his battle, and thought that something big had happened, and wondered: "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Beizhan said: "I heard something today and felt that it made sense. ”
"What makes sense?"
"If a man doesn't let his wife take care of the house, he doesn't love her enough." Shen Beizhan looked at Cha Jiu, half serious, half joking:
"So I decided to hand over all the property in the house, as well as my personal wealth, to you, Madame, and hope that Madame will have more pity on me in the future and reward me with light wine and food."
Cha Jiu looked at his playful appearance, and couldn't help but laugh: "Where did you hear these words?" ”
Shen Beizhan told the family affairs that his subordinates complained about.
However, he did not approve of what his subordinates said.
"How can a man love you if he doesn't even want to give you his property?" He frowned and said, "What is wrong with a woman, who has entrusted her life to men and her family, working household chores, serving her in-laws, and risking injuries and risks to give birth to children?" It is to take the whole net worth and make it. ”
The more Cha Jiu listened, the happier he became, and deliberately joked to him: "So are you giving me the stewardship of the mansion now, or are you giving me the property?" ”
Shen Beizhan said seriously: "The property belongs to you, and the handprint of the contract is stamped with yours." As for the housekeeper's business, you can pick it up and take care of it when you have time, and let Steward Zhang do the work when you don't have time. ”
Steward Zhang in the register: "......"
Shen Beizhan: "I am the only one left in my family, and the population is simple, so there are not so many twists and turns of others." But even if my father and mother are still alive, I believe they will ask me to respect and love you first, instead of competing for everything. ”
The Shen family has always been simple and simple, Shen's father and Shen's mother have been together on the battlefield all their lives, they have always loved each other, and they have never quarreled with each other.
Cha Jiu's heart was a little warm: "Then I'll accept it." ”
Shen Beizhan: "Madame accepted it generously." ”
Before, it was because the relationship between the two was tepid, and Shen Beizhan was too lazy to pay attention to these trivial matters, so he never let Cha Jiu take over the property in the house.
Now she listened to Steward Zhang count all the shops and granges under the name of the General's Mansion, and only then did she know how heavy the emperor's reward for the Shen family had been over the years.
Instead of being happy, she was a little worried.
Reward is a good thing.
But if the reward is too much, it will push the Shen family to the forefront and deliberately kill it.
The emperor did not favor the Shen family and the princess as much as he showed.
On the contrary, he is sensitive and suspicious, controlling, and even very vindictive.
These are all the conclusions that Cha Jiu has observed during this period of time, as well as the conclusions obtained from analyzing the memories of the original body.
After Shen Beizhan knew her concerns, he seemed indifferent.
"Don't worry, the emperor's attitude towards our Shen family was figured out by my father and brother many years ago. Now he has given me money and titles, and allowed me to ride in the palace to face the saints, and these honors and graces are only for the sake of the fact that I have no heirs to inherit. ”
"Our caution will make him suspicious and speculative, it is better to accept it generously, and be more arrogant within the scope of his tolerance, but it will make him more reassuring."
Cha Jiu was surprised that under Shen Beizhan's five major and three rough demeanors, he actually had such a delicate and transparent heart.
"I asked you at the Imperial Horse Workshop why you were pretending to be arrogant in the capital, and it turned out that this was the reason." Cha Jiu thought back.
Shen Beizhan nodded: "The emperor wants his courtiers to be both smart and stupid, and I can only do what he wants." ”
Cha Jiu smiled: "It seems that the king in our eyes is the same." ”
The emperor pretended to favor the princess, but in fact, he was just doing it for the world to see.
After all, a favored princess is much more valuable than an unfavored princess.
For example, if the emperor marries her to Shen Beizhan, the world will think it is a gift.
……
After Shen Beizhan handed over all the property of the General's Mansion to Cha Jiu, Cha Jiu took the time to visit the shops and granges a few times.
Soon, the news disappeared, and everyone in the capital knew about General Shen's favorite wife who gave up his life's work in order to please his wife.
This move made many nobles of the family even more secretly agreed, and also made the married women in the capital envious and jealous.
After all, although they are in charge of the housekeepers, they have always worked hard for their husbands' families, no matter how much they earn or how much they save, they do not have a penny that belongs to them, and they can only earn a virtuous reputation at most.
Compared with real money, who would have a rare reputation?
But they are also used to comforting themselves.
No matter how much the husband loves, no matter how much money he has, what is the use?
Marrying the Shen family, there are always no children, and these things outside the body can only be chic in this life, which is not very interesting.
There are also some side branches of the Shen family, who are obviously separated by blood from Shen Beizhan and Shen Beizhan 108,000 miles away, and they can't help but get anxious at this time.
They had already started the idea of the general's property, thinking that if there was no successor to Shenbei in the war, they would definitely pass the stepchild from the side branch.
When the time comes, won't these titles and riches be in their pockets?
But now I heard that Shen Beizhan actually gave all his property to the princess, which is amazing.
The Panzhi family hurriedly sent their most "highly respected" ancestor, Shen Lu, to the General's Mansion to inquire.
