This was said to Mrs. Lou Er, but Mrs. Yao Er could not help but miss her.
As Gu Qingling, she wanted to build a book school. Mrs. Yao Er didn't find it strange at all, but building the book school so big...
Is it really okay?
In the evening, Mrs. Yao Er whispered a few words to Mr. Yao Er.
Second Master Yao also looked surprised.
"You said this, should I ask the old lady?"
"If you want to ask, just ask."
"You said it quite simply. What if the old lady doesn't want me to ask?" Mrs. Yao Er rolled her eyes at him, "The old lady didn't even tell us about it, so she did it by herself. Maybe she just didn't want us to know.
.And the old lady also pointed out that this book school was built in the capital. Why should it be built in the capital? It must have been after the old lady married into Prince Chong's palace... The old lady has remarried, how can we interfere with the old lady?
If you want to intervene in Taijun's affairs, it should be Prince Chong's responsibility."
"Then I am also the biological son of the old lady."
"What's wrong with my biological son? Can you, my biological son, be as important as Prince Chong?"
"Uh..." Mr. Yao choked.
How could he possibly be superior to Prince Chong in terms of status? What's more, he was still marrying his mother, who was still his elder in terms of seniority.
Although I somewhat understand that the old lady remarried for the sake of the Yao family, to be honest, I feel a little embarrassed every time I think about my identity and age.
Second Master Yao said: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"I'm asking you, and you're still asking me? I just want you to give me some advice."
"I went out, but you didn't agree."
"What's your idea? What you said is that you are closer to Prince Chong and more qualified to interfere in the old lady's affairs."
"Yes, that means that if Prince Chong can ask you something, I, as your biological son, can definitely ask him."
Mrs. Yao Er looked at him.
Second Master Yao felt strange: "Why do you always look at me like this?"
"I suddenly discovered that you are also a talent."
Second Master Yao was confused: "What do you mean?"
"Go and ask tomorrow to see what the old lady means. If she is willing for us to intervene, we will ask a few more questions. If she is not willing, just pretend that this never happened."
Yao Erye has a question mark face.
"Oh, why don't you understand? The school is built in the capital, and our second room is in charge of Jinling, so we can intervene in the old lady's affairs in Jinling, but in the capital, it depends on the old lady's wishes.
"Second Mrs. Yao is a little envious of the fact that the eldest brother is not here at this time. Otherwise, their second mate would still be able to find excuses to ignore her, but the eldest brother...
Dafang is originally in the capital and is responsible for the affairs of the capital. If he doesn't ask about this matter, it would be a bit unjust, right?
Mr. Yao didn't quite understand the twists and turns in Mrs. Yao's heart, but he understood one thing - whether their second wife could take care of this matter depended on the old lady's wishes.
But isn't this normal?
What matters in their family are not decided by the old lady?
Second Master Yao didn't think there was anything wrong at all, so he mentioned it when he said hello the next morning.
With Mrs. Yao Er serving as a consultant, Gu Qingling was not surprised that Mr. Yao would ask, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this matter. I made an agreement with Prince Chong. I will be responsible for selecting the land, and he will be responsible for other things.
"
"Oh, that's fine."
When Second Master Yao heard that the other Prince Chong had taken care of everything, he immediately felt that there was no problem.
No matter how rich the Yao family is, can they be as rich as Prince Chong?
He had everything covered, so he was still worried that his mother wouldn't be able to build a book school?
Obviously, Mr. Yao didn't quite know what kind of book school Gu Qingling wanted to build. If he wanted to know that the book school was as big as a city, then...
He probably wouldn't be as indifferent as he is now.
"Oh, Prince Chong has taken care of it, just Prince Chong has taken care of it..." Mrs. Yao Er heard what Mr. Yao said and observed a few minutes of silence for Prince Chong.
Compared to Mr. Yao, Mrs. Yao had heard of how big a book school Gu Qingling wanted to build.
Although it was not clear why Gu Qingling wanted to build such a large book school, Mrs. Yao Er said: As long as I don't pay for it, you can do whatever you want!
Lou Qing got the answer from Mrs. Lou Second and felt more at ease.
No matter whether other members of the Yao family agree with this or not, he has already said hello in advance, and if there are any problems later, he cannot be blamed.
At the end of the year, before Uncle Yao and his family returned to Jinling, Li Wenchong received Gu Qingling's "drawings".
Seeing such a large area, Li Wenchong was a little bit dumbfounded: "Isn't this a problem for me? Brother Huang may not approve it."
Even if Emperor Mingguang knew about their plan and acquiesced to it, the land that Gu Qingling wanted was too big. It would be strange if word spread and it was not noticeable. Even if Emperor Mingguang was "partial", he couldn't be like this, right?
Li Wenchong touched his chin, feeling that he needed to find a better reason.
What reason are you looking for?
Li Wenchong slapped his forehead. What better reason could there be than his wedding gift?
He laughed and decided to ask Emperor Mingguang to give him a piece of land as a "wedding gift". Once the land is in their hands, isn't it their own business to use it?
Emperor Mingguang: "..."
It’s not like you don’t have a fiefdom. Is it strange if I carve out such a piece of land for you near the capital?
"It's not strange, how could it be strange?" Li Wenchong said, "Brother, think about it, the fiefdom you gave me before was too far away, and you were reluctant for me to leave the capital, so you took advantage of my wedding to stay near the capital.
You found a piece of wasteland for me. I don't want a city with people, I just want a large enough piece of 'wasteland', including mountains and rivers."
Emperor Mingguang said: "You might as well ask me to cut half of the capital for you."
"Brother Emperor, if you don't mind, I can do it too." Li Wenchong muttered.
Emperor Mingguang glared at him.
Li Wenchong immediately changed his mind: "Of course, that in the capital is a symbol of imperial power. Even if I think about it, I don't dare to ask for it. If I want it, other emperor uncles will definitely make trouble for me. Brother Emperor, what do you think?
How about it? It’s just a piece of land. Although it’s a bit bigger, it’s wasteland, so it’s okay to leave it there, so you might as well give it to me and see what I can do with it.”
He also stepped forward and pressed Emperor Mingguang's shoulders in a flattering manner.
Emperor Mingguang was at a loss what to do with him, and said, "There's too much movement, it can't be done."
"Oh, Brother Emperor, don't worry, we can't do it all right away. Even if you give me the land, I will take my time, do a little this year, a little next year, boil the frogs in warm water, and wait until they react.
, there are schools all over the country, it’s impossible for them to let us demolish Shuxiangyuan, right? Besides, that’s my fief, who has the guts to show off in my fief?”
"Others can't show prestige, but you can." Emperor Mingguang said, "You have set a precedent, what do you want me to do in the future? I have so many sons, and I always have to think about them."
"It's okay. My brother will help you suppress them when the time comes. As long as my brother is here, the emperor can blame anything on me. Anyway, I have been arrogant for so many years, and this is not enough."
Emperor Mingguang: "..."
Daqing, you also know that in the entire royal family, apart from me, you are the most arrogant?
Look, even the reckless Nineteen knows that he can go up against anyone, but he can't go up against you, because he knows that I will never stand on his side.
