Chapter 608 For the harmony and stability of the family
The Journey Starting from the Siheyuan Chapter 608: For the Harmony and Stability of the Family
Wang Lidong glanced at the direction of the street with his peripheral vision, and saw a few beggars turning their heads to look this way from time to time...
Are you planning to rob the little beggar of his medicine later?
Or is it the same routine as later generations?
Then he looked at the little beggar who had a pleading face and his forehead was bleeding, and the little girl in his arms who was so cold that her face was blue...
Sighing slightly...it's really not a good bet.
"No, take them into the mansion and send someone to invite Dr. Chen from Chunshan Hall."
The little beggar kowtowed three times in the direction of the carriage: "Thank you so much, young master, for saving my life."
Buwei stepped forward and helped the little beggar up: "Come into the house with me quickly, don't delay to see the little lady."
At this time, several beggars on the street outside the palace suddenly gathered together, "Third brother, what should I do?"
The young man with a scar at the corner of his eye said: "Fuck! What else can I do? Go back and tell the boss."
"MD, we had a northwest wind blowing for a long time."
"My money has always been like this. I've told you a long time ago that these brothers and sisters are unreliable. We should have sold them yesterday! The little one looks so iconic, he can sell for at least ten coins..."
"What are you afraid of? Let's go quickly. I'm freezing to death."
.......
At 6 o'clock in the evening, Wang Lidong came to the dining room and said, "Father, mother."
Father Qi nodded slightly.
After sitting down, Wang Lidong noticed something strange. His father lowered his head and looked miserable!
The cheap lady is even more exaggerated. She has a pretty face, as dark as Bao Zheng, and her whole body exudes a cold air that prevents strangers from entering.
He looked at his father and motioned for an answer.
Father Qi glanced at his wife and whispered: "The third prince died at Mao hour this morning (05:00 to 07:00)."
Hey, it turns out it’s such a small thing!
It's not like the emperor never had a son die.
He thought something had happened to the Marquis of Xiangyang or his grandmother.
Hey, let's talk about it, the female pig's feet are coming to Tokyo soon.
Sheng Minglan, who was busy packing her luggage in Yangzhou, couldn't help but sneeze heavily.
What bastard is thinking about me!
Seeing the spit on Xiao Tao's face, Minglan quickly took out her handkerchief and wiped her only confidant's face while mentally greeting the eight generations of ancestors of the bastard who caused this accident.
"Mother Lu, let the kitchen serve the food."
After a busy day, Wang Lidong was already feeling hungry, and when he saw the male and female competing to see who was sadder, he gave orders to his old lady.
After Lu Hong's family glanced at the princess, they looked at the little maid waiting at the door to serve food.
In a short time, six dishes and one soup were placed on the table, including quail cooked with flowers, white kidneys of lychees, bamboo shoots with chicken marrow in red soup, fried wolfberry sprouts with oil and salt, sheep head pickles, Buddha skin mixed with crab oil, and beef and tofu soup.
If we were to judge what is the most sacred and great thing in the world, Wang Lidong, who is holding a tachyon and stuffing mutton into his mouth, would definitely vote for it without hesitation---the world is big and the earth is big, and the rice is the best!
Anyone who dares to disturb his meal must greet his 18th generation ancestors...
"Heng'er!"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
Wang Lidong stopped the kuaizi in his hand and looked at the old lady who spoke.
Princess Pingning was furious when she saw her son waving his cheeks and his lips flashing with oil. She was extremely worried after such a big thing happened. This little brat could still eat, "Heng'er
, I was in the harem today, and I heard from the queen that some ministers are preparing to submit a letter to let your majesty adopt a clan son as a prince. "
[To tell you the truth, I have been using the Changing Source app recently to read and catch up on updates. Changing sources allows me to read aloud with more sounds.
Wang Lidong swallowed the rice in his mouth and said: "Mother, your health is not very good today, and the ministers are also worried about what might go wrong... Can the third prince really come of age and inherit the throne?
It may not be a good thing for our family."
Qi's mother frowned and said, "Heng'er, what nonsense are you talking about? The third prince is His Majesty's biological son, so he should be closer than an unfamiliar clan son. Zhang Zhaorong and I have never had any conflicts."
My political vision is as bad as ever...
Wang Lidong said: "The relationship between Empress Cao and Zhang Zhaorong is not very good, right?"
Qi's mother nodded slightly, not only was it not good, she wished the other party would die.
"If the third prince ascends to the throne, as a rule, both my mother-in-law and Empress Cao will be named queen mothers. Mother, look at history, whenever there are two queen mothers at the same time, they will fight.
The better outcome would be for one to give in and the other to dominate.
If they fight hard, one or all of them will die.
And historically, the one who laughs last is always the emperor’s mother.”
Qi's mother already knew what her son meant. When the time comes for the two empress dowagers to fight, they who are usually close to each other will inevitably be forced to take sides... And she has been raised by Empress Cao since she was a child. How will she choose then?
If you side with Empress Cao, you will offend the emperor. If you dare to act like a second-rate son, the reputation of the Duke of Qi will be ruined. Moreover, before Empress Cao dies, she might drag their family into trouble...
Seeing that his wife's expression had softened a lot, Qi's father hurriedly said, "Madam, the food is almost cold. Let's eat first. Let's chat while we eat."
Qi's mother picked up Kuai Zi and sighed softly: "It would be great if the Queen had a prince..."
Wang Lidong curled his lips.
If the queen has a son, her family will continue to be popular.
Innocent!
Nowadays, the main reason why the palace takes so much care of the Duke's Mansion is for the sake of the Marquis of Xiangyang's face.
When the Marquis of Xiangyang is gone one day, Qi's mother will know that she has no real ability, no use value, and the relationship is worthless.
Seeing that my mother wanted to continue, Wang Lidong hurriedly turned around and asked Qi's father:
"Father, are you encountering something difficult?"
Father Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "Is it so obvious?"
Wang Lidong nodded, not noticing that your butler looked cautious and stood half a meter further away than usual.
Qi's father said: "I was impeached by Yushitai in court today."
Qi's mother was startled and asked in concern: "Why are these Wutai gang impeaching you?"
Wutai refers to the censor's platform. In the Han Dynasty, there were many crows on the cypress trees outside the censor's platform, so people called the censor's platform Wutai, which also means that the censors all have crow's mouths.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Thinking of today's court meeting, Qi Guogong felt a little depressed. He picked up the wine glass and took two sips.
This year, Tokyo has been experiencing heavy snowfall for most of the month, which has caused the price of charcoal to soar. One scale (15 kilograms) of charcoal has been sold for 220 Wen.
Some people at the bottom cannot afford such expensive charcoal, resulting in many people freezing to death every day.
The Yushitai did not go to find trouble with the Kaifeng Mansion, but inexplicably put the blame on the head of the Salt and Iron Department.
It was accused that the smelting workshops affiliated with the Salt and Iron Department used too much charcoal, causing a shortage of charcoal in Kaifeng Prefecture, and that was why the price was so high.
It just so happened that the third prince disappeared again today. You can imagine how the emperor felt... He was so angry that he could hardly find his way...
After listening to his father's story, Wang Lidong understood it after thinking about it.
This matter was obviously due to the failure of the Kaifeng Prefecture's Yamen, but the current Kaifeng Prefecture Governor was Lu Gongbi.
His biological father was Lu Yijian, the former prime minister, and his grandfather was Lu Mengzheng, the prime minister in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Among the officials in the dynasty, at least 180 people were related to this family...
And now Sun Zhen, the censor Zhongcheng, is still a student of Lu Yijian. Even if he borrowed a hundred courages, he would not dare to impeach Lu Gongbi.
Since there is no way to get the governor of Kaifeng, we can only look for the one who takes the blame. After scanning around... Qi's father caught Sun Zhen's eyes. He was in the circle of nobles, and behind him was the Marquis of Xiangyang. The most important thing
What's more, this officer has occupied the position of Salt and Iron Envoy for almost ten years...it's really heart-breaking!
Princess Pingning said angrily: "These crow mouths are too bullying! Your Majesty is the same, how can you be indiscriminate... No, I will go to the palace..."
When the Duke of Qi saw that his wife was about to go out after throwing Kuaizi down, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop her and advised her: "It will be counterproductive to enter the palace now. Your Majesty actually understands in his heart that after the matter of the third prince is over, I will enter the palace to explain the matter clearly."
That’s it.”
Wang Lidong also gave some persuasion and finally dragged the wayward old woman back to the dinner table. "Father, mother, the fact that people can't afford charcoal for heating is actually not difficult to solve."
Although Qi's father said it was easy, he still saw that things were not that simple. After thinking about the plot of the TV series, Qi's father should have resigned from the Salt and Iron Envoy in the next two years, and then he did not get any positions.
Go home directly to retire.
At that time, the yin in the family will definitely become more prosperous and the yang will decline, and it may even affect you.
For the sake of family harmony and stability, Wang Lidong decided to give his father a hand.
Qi's father looked at his son: "What good idea did Heng'er think of?"
Wang Lidong replied with two words: "coal."
I thought his Qianliju would have some good ideas, but Qi's father was a little disappointed and said, "Heng'er, this thing is not suitable for heating."
Coal has many disadvantages. When ignited, the smoke is very large, the smell is very pungent, and it often explodes, producing explosion sounds.
Mining is not as fast and convenient as logging, and the taxes collected by the government are also extremely heavy. As a result, the price on the market is not much cheaper than charcoal, so most people still choose to use charcoal for heating.
