The eighteenth day of the first lunar month is the auspicious day set by the royal family for Feiyang's ancient residence. Book fans also like to read: A few days ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs submitted the proposed betrothal gift package to Kangxi. After carefully reading it, Kangxi only approved the package.
A few words: It must be exquisite.
After receiving the memorial, the Ministry of Internal Affairs hurriedly worked overtime, counted, supplemented, and replaced some of the orders that had been prepared. They tried their best to arrange it before the 18th.
After this time, all the ministers who participated in this decision have changed their views on the fourth prince. It seems that although the future fourth prince Fujin is only the daughter of a second-rank military general, the emperor still attaches great importance to her.
However, what they didn't know was that the real reason why Kangxi attached great importance to this marriage was that his fourth son, Yinzhen, might have the only wedding in his life...
"My son has only one wish in his life, to help Emperor Ama solve problems and assist the prince's second brother in running errands. Book fans also like to read:. However, Wanwang Emperor Ama also agreed to Yinzhen's only request and allowed Yinzhen to just
Marry Jinxi as your wife, and from now on there will be no side blessings or concubines..."
This is what Yinzhen said at the time. For the first time in thirteen years, he knelt in front of his imperial father and said so many words that were comparable to an oath...
Kangxi retracted his distant gaze and sighed deeply.
There is no true love in the imperial concubine. He has always warned himself in this way. It is also passed down to future generations.
Therefore, he was largely responsible for the prince being so romantic. He deeply believed that only by being indifferent and only by having great fraternity could he secure the throne.
The prince is the future crown prince and the heir to the throne in a hundred years. He does not want the Qing Dynasty, which he has spent a lot of effort to regulate and finally stabilize, to be ruined by another infatuated man.
First, Emperor Taizong turned against his brothers, and then Emperor Shunzhi abandoned the government. The trigger was always the word "woman."
Therefore, at the age of seven, after he successfully ascended the throne with the help of the Empress Dowager, he made a vow: In this life, he would neither taste nor bet. Once Huang Mafa and Huang Ama left.
Love journey.
Even though he was criticized by future generations for having concubines and heirs all over the palace, he still did not want to be known as the "love-struck emperor".
Therefore, he insisted on taking those illusory loves very lightly. Even Queen Hesheli, who had shared the difficulties with him, did not dare to reciprocate any other feelings except being moved. He only gave her a promise before her death, that is, an appointment.
Yinfeng was the prince of the East Palace and the future crown prince of the Qing Dynasty.
Having learned from the mistakes of his ancestors, he is now willing to give his true feelings back to Cangshan in the world...
Perhaps because of this, being as smart as Yinzhen blocked his own path forward. Book fans also like to read: Not only does he only marry one wife, but he also marries the daughter of a second-grade military general who has been married. Ha...
Did he decide that it was impossible for him to change the candidate for the crown prince? Or was he disdainful of this supreme position that was coveted by thousands of people?
Kangxi stroked his beard and moustache, shaking his head in confusion.
But it was precisely this kind of confusion that suited Yinzhen's heart. From that moment on, Kangxi's heart was not only increasingly filled with the image of the fourth prince, who had always been ranked second to the prince in the previous thirteen years, but also began to reflect on it.
.Is there really something wrong with my education of the prince?
………………
"Huh! I never thought before that I would have such a day, and actually be able to be worshiped by the royal prince!" Minrong took a long breath, and beat his aching waist.
Fei Yanggu, who walked back to his room after the royal family members came to make their reservations, laughed and sighed.
Fei Yanggu also sighed lightly and shook his head. "I don't know why the emperor gave his daughter to the fourth elder brother. It's not like he doesn't know my origin. Even if he has forgotten it, it is recorded in the imperial books. How could it be possible?
…”
"After bowing just now, you invited the fourth elder brother to sit in the study. Did he reveal anything about it?" Although Min Rong was puzzled, as long as the daughter married well, what did it matter. The emperor kept his word,
Is it possible to take back the decree that was given? She only hoped that the fourth elder brother would not hate Shang Jinxi because of this. After all, having a powerful wife family is a big share for the newly adult princes and elder brothers.
A great help.
"That's the strange thing. The fourth elder brother seems to be... very satisfied with this marriage. His attitude towards me just now was like an ordinary son-in-law towards his father-in-law, respectful and respectful. He also said that the dowry only needs to be delivered to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The standard is enough. If the money for marriage is not enough, let the daughter come to him to discuss it. This makes me even more puzzled..." Fei Yanggu scratched his head.
"Huh? Fourth brother really said that? But Xi'er said last time..."
"Hey, do you believe that my daughter sometimes talks casually?! In my opinion, the fourth elder brother is more attentive to this marriage than our daughter." Before Minrong finished reciting what Jinxi told her at the New Year's Eve palace banquet, she said
Fei Yanggu raised his hand to stop it, and other book friends read normally:.
He has a much better understanding of his daughter's temperament than Fujin, who loves her above all else.
"It would be great if this is true!" Minrong said with a look of relief, "My daughter has a lively temperament, and I have no other extravagant thoughts about having a safe person like Fourth Elder Brother to take care of her. Master, although Fourth Elder Brother asked us to just satisfy our internal affairs.
The dowry issued by the government is standard, but I think we should try to be as generous as possible. After all, my daughter is marrying into the royal family as Prince Fujin, so I have to fight for my daughter's face."
"Well, of course I know it. Just put away those silver coins of yours. You have saved them for several years, and don't take them out at every turn. Ling'er is still young, so keep it for future use. I still have several properties here.
Let her be included in the dowry. She is my only legitimate daughter, so I cannot bear the grievance."
"The master is talking about the village in Fangshan? But isn't that what we plan to leave to Qi Ke and Qichen?" Upon hearing this, Minrong quickly refused: "No, no, the two brothers Qi Ke and Qichen are not young anymore.
The delay in getting them engaged before was also due to career considerations. Now that their careers are successful, one has joined the Ministry of Etiquette and the other has joined the Ministry of War. Soon matchmakers will come to propose marriage. Otherwise, there are also many young people of the right age among the master's colleagues who have not been selected.
Women, if they look good, they can settle down immediately, so how can they transfer the property left to them to Xi'er..."
"Hey, do you think that this property belongs to me?" Fei Yanggu glared at Minrong in a funny way, "Tell you, after hearing what my daughter said four years ago in Meishan Villa,
Later, I also started to think about investing. Although there is no free land in Xiaotangshan except the Royal Forbidden Garden, Fangshan has it. It is still full of tracts. Unfortunately, I didn’t have much savings at that time, so I only had enough to buy it.
The next farm was a farm with 500 acres of land... After I bought it, I felt that I didn’t have time to take care of it, and I couldn’t imitate my daughter’s example of renovating the village and growing whatever flowers and plants there were, so I simply rented it out. After a year, the income was pretty good.
.So, the next year, I added some more money, and used the proceeds to expand another two hundred acres of land and build a small farm. I also bought a hilltop... In this way, after a few years, I have built a small farm.
There are three villas, four villas, and two main entrances each on Ximen Street and Qianmen Street!"
After spitting out the investment returns over the years, Fei Yanggu proudly raised his chin towards Minrong, picked up the teapot on the table and took a few big gulps of tea.
"Master!" Minrong heard this and was immediately surprised, "I didn't expect that you could be so powerful despite being so silent!"
"That's right. Master, do you think I know how to read military records and play chess all day long? Ha...what? It's not smaller than my daughter's career, right?" Seeing his Fujin being so powerful, Fei Yanggu suddenly laughed heartily,
Finally, he patted the back of Min Rong's hand and said, "Well, I've thought about it. Xi'er will marry Si Age. The dowry cannot be too meager. In this way, there will be two farmhouses, two villas, and one facade each on Ximen Street and Qianmen Street.
What do you think of her dowry?"
"It's fine if you think it's good for me. Xi'er just told me yesterday that she insisted on leaving 'Guozhiyu' to me. 'Miyu' is not going to be included in the dowry because she has Qingsui's share, and she is only going to take away 'Xunfang'
Buyi and Huaguo Winery. At that time, I was worried that the dowry would not be decent enough, so I was planning to discuss it with the master. I went to buy two chateaus for her in the suburbs. Unexpectedly, the master had already left a backup plan. As expected, Jiang was still old.
It's spicy!" Minrong smiled, took Fei Yanggu's arm and sat down in front of the desk, took out the banknotes, and prepared to make a list.
Since the Ministry of Internal Affairs has made a decision today, the woman's dowry list will be presented to Kangxi for review in a few days.
Although the betrothal gift this time is much higher than that of the eldest elder brother and third elder brother when they got married, correspondingly, the woman's dowry cannot be left behind.
"That girl! She's so generous." Hearing this, Fei Yanggu couldn't help stroking his beard and chuckled. "The pastry shop was given to you, my mother-in-law, so why didn't you leave the winery for me, my amma?"
Although she knew Fei Yanggu was joking, Minrong couldn't help but glared at him, "You still have the nerve to say that. When my daughter was planning the winery last year, why didn't I see your full support? You always took the opportunity to talk about her.
.Even if my daughter means it, she will be angered by your words that are neither yin nor yang."
Huaguo Winery was just established by Jinxi at the beginning of last year. Although it has only been open for more than a year, it is already well-known in the capital. As the name suggests, Huaguo Winery sells fruit wine and flower wine in various flavors.
Just because the flowers and fruits that ripen every season in Xiaotangshan Villa and the farm are used for "Fruit Language" and daily life, there are still a lot more. Seeing the waste, Jinxi simply came up with the idea of trying to brew fruit wine. This trial,
The effect was so good that not only various fruit wines were brewed, but also Baihua Brewing, which attracted much attention from later generations. Other book friends read normally:.
At Yinzhen's suggestion, he simply opened a separate store to sell fruit wine and flower wine produced in Xiaotangshan Hot Spring Village. As a result, not only "Huaguo Winery" became famous in the capital, but Xiaotangshan also became a big hit.
.
Many dignitaries and dignitaries rushed to Xiaotang Mountain for an outing. After learning that the emperor planned to build a hot spring palace on the site of the former Forbidden Garden, they all started bustling with excitement. They were looking for land and buying land.
Those who buy mountains buy mountains.
No, Yinzhen, who sold several villages and hills, made a lot of money from it. It can be regarded as thanks to Jin Xi's blessing.
"Ahem... I'm not worried about her! It's ridiculous to say that a girl's daughter spends all day running to the shop! She was still in the Queen Mother's Palace at that time, and her mind was so active. If she were free, what would happen?
You can still control her!" As soon as Fei Yanggu heard Min Rong's words, he knew that he was going to be criticized, so he couldn't help but defend himself.
"Yes, my fourth elder brother doesn't dislike her. On the contrary, he is very satisfied with this marriage... By the way, Master, is it possible that my fourth elder brother has been satisfied with our Xi'er for a long time? Could it be that he was the one who arranged the marriage by the emperor?
What do you mean?" Minrong is still very clever. When he thinks about the business relationship between his daughter and his fourth brother in the past few years, he can't help but become suspicious in this regard.
"Well... it's not impossible..." Fei Yanggu pondered for a while, nodded, then patted his thigh and said with a smile: "If that's the case, I won't worry about that girl anymore. Come on,
Let's calculate the dowry in detail. We have drawn up the list and will send it to the emperor for review as soon as possible. If there is no problem with the emperor, we can get ready. Today is the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, and the wedding date is September 15th.
Just eight months.”
"Sure!" Minrong nodded, and after serving Fei Yanggu a cup of tea, the couple muttered about Jinxi's dowry.
………………
"Congratulations to Princess, congratulations to Princess!"
As soon as Jinxi and Jiangrui entered the "Flower and Fruit Winery", they heard two storekeepers come forward to congratulate her with smiles. Book fans also like to read: Mo'er, who was originally squatting at the counter to check the accounts, also came from inside
Drilled out.
"Gege, why are you free to come here today? I still want to go back to the small building to report this month's monthly results to you later!" Mo'er hurriedly supported Jinxi and walked to the lounge upstairs.
"Gin and silver wine, Haosheng looks at the store."
"Okay, Miss Mo'er!" the two waiters responded with a smile.
"There's nothing wrong. I'm just bored at home and wanted to come and walk around." Jin Xi motioned Mo'er to go about her own business and not to greet her in particular: "How is the business of the winery these days? No one is here to cause trouble.
?”
"Don't worry, Gege. With Fourth Brother taking action, no one will dare to come and cause trouble! The gangster who tried to misguide the idea at Xiaotangshan Farm last time has already revealed the mastermind. Gege will not be able to guess who it is!" Mo'er puffed out his cheeks and said angrily.
: "It turned out to be the steward of his Tera Mansion! I paid him fifty taels of silver to go to the wine cellar to dispense medicine! You said that we have nothing to do with his Tera Mansion! Before, the slave thought she was Qing Sui's aunt. It seemed like
In the past few years, if there is any grudge between them during festivals, it’s just the mother and daughter. I didn’t expect another bad guy to pop up!”
"His Terah Mansion...the Nudahai Mansion that was originally Ama's colleague?" Jinxi frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled with understanding: "Mo'er, do you still remember that Shen Liqiu and him?
What about the quarrel between the concubines in La’s house?”
"Gege means that the concubine in his Taira house came to us to vent his anger?"
"Maybe it's her, maybe it's Nu Dahai himself. After all, it was precisely because of the quarrel between Shen Liqiu and his concubine that he became less and less important to the emperor." At this point, Jin Xi put down the account book handed over by Mo'er.
, smiled narrowly, and stopped Mo'er from going downstairs to pour tea: "Since Fourth Brother helped us settle this matter privately, I have to come to say thank you anyway. Don't be busy, I'll do it right away.
Take Jiangrui to the medical clinic. After you check the accounts, go back to the small building. I will discuss something with you later."
Mo'er nodded when he heard the words, and watched Jinxi and Jiangrui leave the winery, and then buried them in the account books at the counter again. This winery, Gege has been entrusted to her to take care of since it opened, and she must not let Gege take care of it.
