Wang Tingxuan quickly called to King Zhongshun and said: "Your Majesty, I have not considered this matter for the time being. Besides, there is no need to alarm the Emperor with this trivial matter."
King Zhongshun said in surprise: "It's a small thing? Have you forgotten about the sweet potatoes? The news from my farm, the output estimated by experienced farmers is a bit scary. Once the emperor knows the news, he will definitely give you a reward
With a title of nobility, tell me, is this still a small matter?"
Of course Wang Tingxuan also knew what this merit represented. It was precisely because of this that he rarely attended the gatherings of those nobles. These nobles were closely intertwined, and Wang Tingxuan did not want to have too much contact with them until the relationship between them was clear.
s contact.
Sweet potatoes are a sign of merit, or they may be a talisman for death.
As long as he follows the emperor, he will surely get the credit, and he will not go around seeking death.
As for marriage?
Wang Tingxuan does not reject it. After all, any desire for free love in this era is purely wishful thinking.
I just didn't expect that King Zhongshun's reaction would be so big.
Feng Ziying left Wang Tingxuan and went directly to Beijing Palace.
"Your Majesty, Prince Zhongshun suddenly went to Wang Tingxuan's home, so I can only say goodbye and leave." Feng Ziying said with a hint of guilt.
Shui Rong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Wang Tingxuan already has a relationship with King Zhongshun. Even if King Zhongshun doesn't come, he may not agree to my invitation."
A Qing guest from Shui Rong asked: "Wang Tingxuan is just a guard. Even if he comes up with two ideas to make money, the prince does not have to be so polite to him."
Shui Rong said: "What if he has other ideas? Otherwise, why would Zhongshun be so kind to him?"
In their impression, King Zhongshun was indeed not a good person, and such things as loyalty would not happen to King Zhongshun.
But they are enemies in the same industry. Even if they rely on the Beijing Palace to make a living, what if a capable person comes to earn a living?
"My subordinates think that the prince is overly worried. If Wang Tingxuan really had an idea to make money, he would have given it to the emperor long ago."
Feng Ziying was still a bit chivalrous and said: "Even if there is no other recipe, the two in his hand cannot be underestimated."
"Master Feng's words are wrong. These two prescriptions have been handed over to the emperor by him a long time ago, and now they belong to the emperor. Even if we get the prescriptions from him, how can we still compete with the emperor for business?"
Then, an endless debate began again.
Shui Rong also lost his way in the argument and couldn't make up his mind, so he had to ask them to leave first.
This is why Shui Rong has such concerns. If other people get the prescription, they don't care whether they are competing for business with the emperor.
The Jia family is talking about these things.
Jia Mu said, "Has son-in-law Lin brought over the deed to the courtyard where Wang Tingxuan lives?"
Mrs. Wang said: "No."
"Why not?" Jia Mu said with disappointment: "Can we use the deed of this yard to exchange the glass prescription with him? With the prescription, our family can not only save a sum of money to build the garden, but also
You can still make some money.”
Aunt Lai was frightened. That courtyard had given her grandson an official position. If Jia Mu knew about it, she would definitely not be able to spare her family.
"Old lady, I heard that the courtyard belonged to Eunuch Dai, and later it got into Wang Tingxuan's name. If we cause trouble for him, will we offend Eunuch Dai?"
Mrs. Wang quickly persuaded her: "Old lady, let's not talk about that courtyard anymore. If you really offend Eunuch Dai, if he says something casually in front of the emperor, your Majesty won't be able to explain it clearly."
Jia Mu sighed and said: "That's the reason! It's because our family didn't speak up in front of the emperor that we let these rootless people bully our family. The second child's family, what I said
, how have you considered it? If son-in-law Lin stands with our family, the queen will not be afraid of those villains suing. "
Mrs. Wang felt unhappy for a while. Baoyu was the uncle of the country. With such a distinguished status, neither the girl of the Lin family nor the girl of the Xue family was worthy of it. The Xue family actually thought of changing the Geng Tie privately. How could this happen?
It can be done.
Mrs. Wang said at that time: "To be honest with my sister, I also have this plan, but the old lady told the master in advance that without her consent, Baoyu's marriage can never be decided. The master is a filial man and will not disobey the old lady.
Willingness. You said, if the old lady and the master don’t approve it by then, won’t Bao Yatou’s reputation be ruined?”
"Also, if the empress finds out about the secret exchange of Geng Tie, what will she think of Bao Yatou? I still think that the right way is to talk to the empress first."
Aunt Xue said nothing for a while: "I have to go back and discuss it with her brother."
Just after sending Aunt Xue away, Jia Mu brought the Lin family out again. Why was there no time to calm down?
Mrs. Wang said: "Old lady, Miss Lin's health has been poor since she was a child. Now that Uncle Lin won't let her come over, is it..."
Jia Mu was shocked and did not dare to force Mrs. Wang. If Lin Daiyu's health was really serious, wouldn't it ruin Baoyu's reputation?
Jia Mu decided to send someone to see Lin Daiyu before discussing the engagement.
Mrs. Wang returned to her house and walked back and forth, unable to think of any good way to get money from the Xue family without affecting Baoyu.
Zhou Rui's family saw Mrs. Wang's thoughts and said, "Madam, I have an idea."
"If you have any ideas, just tell me quickly." Mrs. Wang said impatiently.
"My aunt finally said that for the sake of peace of mind, let's let the servants in the house talk about it in private, so that my aunt thinks everyone in the house knows about it."
Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea. Anyway, the slaves below said it, and it won't have any impact on Baoyu."
Mrs. Wang asked Zhou Rui's family to go down to prepare, and she went to discuss it with Aunt Xue.
Soon after, the whole Jia family's servants were spreading rumors of a good marriage.
By the time Jia Mu found out, the rumors in the house could not be stopped. Even if she punished several mothers-in-law, it would not help.
Seeing that Mrs. Wang had obtained the money, Jia Mu couldn't stop her anymore, but it was impossible for her to suffer such a depressing loss.
The servants of the Jia family always liked to talk about their master. The rumors about their good relationship were so strong that they could also discuss some matters between Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun.
After getting hints from Jia Mu, the discussions became more lively. The two sides faced each other tit for tat, and after fighting for some time, the winner was decided.
After all, the Xue family lives in the Jia family, and the Xue family has made extraordinary moves, taking advantage of the right time, place, and people. The winds have gradually become unified, and a good marriage has completely taken over.
Both Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were unhappy. Mrs. Wang was unwilling to give in. It was really aggrieved for her son to be married to Bao Yatou.
Jia's mother felt threatened. The direction of the rumor was a trivial matter. As long as she didn't approve it, the Xue family could still marry Jia Baoyu based on the rumor.
What really worries Jia's mother is her own prestige. Now that the queen has not yet married, Mrs. Wang is putting pressure on her. After the queen has married, will her position still be stable?
Mother Jia can't trust Mrs. Wang's filial piety.
In order to let Mrs. Wang remember who has the final say in the Jia family, Jia Mu started a new round of teaching her daughter-in-law the rules.
