Anyi Hou Mansion.
Before dawn, Xu Qinghuan got up and followed the cook to make two plates of red bean cakes, and then went to serve Mrs. Xu to wash up.
Mrs. Xu couldn't help complaining when she saw Xu Qinghuan: "You children should sleep for an extra hour. What are you doing here so early?"
Xu Qinghuan pretended to be wronged: "Grandmother doesn't like to see her granddaughter? Is it because she is afraid of eating the dim sum made by her granddaughter?"
Mrs. Xu couldn't help laughing out "puchi": "I like to eat, how many dishes have you made this time? I will eat every one left."
Xu Qinghuan took the jade hairpin from her mother in charge, and put it on Mrs. Xu herself: "After eating the red bean cake made by my granddaughter, grandma will know where the best snacks in the world are."
Mrs. Xu deliberately said: "Where is it?"
"In grandma's stomach." Xu Qinghuan said and leaned on Mrs. Xu's shoulder.
Mrs. Xu couldn't stop laughing at these words: "You monkey, you are getting worse and worse, tomorrow I should hire a female gentleman to teach you well, so that I won't go to your husband's house in the future and be rejected by your mother-in-law and husband. "
"Then I won't marry anymore," Xu Qinghuan raised her head with a pitiful look, "I will suffer even if I marry, so I'll just stay at home. Anyway, the Marquis of Anyi doesn't lack a bite of food for me."
"What nonsense."
Xu Qinghuan immediately felt her butt being slapped lightly by her grandmother: "No matter how good your mother's family is, you have to grow up and have your own flesh and blood in the future, so that when you are old, someone will serve you wholeheartedly, so that you can have someone like you. Your monkey bears Huan's knees, so there will be people who don't dislike you for being old and sick."
Mrs. Xu was just talking about this, when Mrs. Anyihou entered the door, Mrs. Xu pointed out: "There is such a good wife who takes care of you and helps you take care of this big family. When the time comes, whoever you think will only need you?" With just one look, the daughter-in-law made it clear, you can't feel lonely just by looking at these people, you know?"
A few words from her grandmother made Xu Qinghuan's heart ache. In fact, after the previous life, she really didn't want to marry, and just wanted to live a good life with her grandmother, father, mother, and brother. But in her grandmother's heart, she deserved something better.
"Grandmother," Xu Qinghuan said, "if I stay at my mother's house, I will still be an aunt that no one dares to mess with."
"Hurry up and beat her out," Mrs. Xu looked at Mrs. Anyihou with a straight face, "An unfilial girl came out of the Xu family, I don't want to see her anymore."
Having said this, she hugged Xu Qinghuan even tighter. When she looked down at Xu Qinghuan's big clear eyes, Mrs. Xu couldn't help laughing, and immediately broke her work.
Looking at this scene, Mrs. Anyihou couldn't help but feel happy. Although the imperial court has not yet issued a document, everyone knows that Lord Hou is going to lead troops to Changzhou.
In the past two days, Lord Hou will go to the camp outside Beijing to watch the military training before dawn, and then go to the Ministry of War to discuss matters. Seeing how busy he is, he will leave within ten days at the latest.
Mrs. An Yihou was afraid that Mrs. Xu was worried, so she deliberately came to talk to Mrs. Tai earlier, but she didn't expect that Qing Huan had already arrived one step earlier.
"I'm fine," Mrs. Xu said, "you don't have to worry about me. My son, I know in my heart, he is a restless person. As long as he feels at ease, he can do whatever he wants. I just hope he can wear To be warm, to be able to sleep, to eat well, to be oldeverything can be overlooked."
That's what he said, but after all, he is his own flesh and blood, how could Mrs. Anyihou not understand that feeling.
"Grandmother," Xu Qinghuan said, "you grew up in Changzhou, what was Changzhou like when you were young?"
"It's bustling," Mrs. Xu said, "look at the bustle in central Beijing, Changzhou was even better at that time, novel objects were everywhere, and there were many people walking on the street. There is also a smell, everyone said that you can't stare at them, otherwise the eyes will change color, I don't believe that, I took the servants out secretly, and bought a lot of strange things from a fan."
Xu Qing laughed and said: "Grandmother always said that I am lawless, but did I follow grandma?"
Mrs. Xu looked disgusted: "I didn't see it."
Several people laughed again.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Grandmother also returned to Changzhou a few days ago, how is Changzhou now?"
Mrs. Xu shook her head: "On the surface it looks pretty good, but there are no Fan merchants on the street anymore. There are a lot of goods sold in the market, and the prices are very expensive. In the past, Fan sells goods because the price is high or low. There will be a fight, no matter how many shops there are now, they are all the same."
Mrs. Anyihou said: "Isn't that a good thing? Everyone sells the same to avoidfight. "
Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Qinghuan: "What do you think, girl Huan? Is this good?"
Xu Qinghuan shook his head: "No, there will be some fights in business more or less. Losing today and earning tomorrow is all to open up your own business channels. The sudden silence can only mean one thing, that is, someone controls Changzhou's business. Especially maritime trade, everyone has to listen to their arrangements."
Mrs. Anyihou understood: "The Zhang family is in control of all this? How many bad things have the Zhang family done? Now that Zhang Yucong is in prison, will the situation in Changzhou also improve?"
Mrs. Xu sighed: "It depends on Changzhou's good fortune Changzhou was still peaceful when the late emperor was there, and his relatives were so powerful that they hurt a lot of people. If it weren't for the officials who took refuge in the Zhang family, they would not dare to go to Changzhou. Even a small county magistrate has to pay a lot of offerings every year."
Mrs. Anyihou said: "My daughter-in-law here knows that Changzhou punished a few corrupt officials in the past two years, and the Zhang family failed to protect them. The emperor was furious because of this corrupt official, so much so that the empress dowager was implicated. At that time, there was a banquet in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and the daughter-in-law was among them. The emperor came long ago and left without saying anything. The anger spread to the female officer beside me, and it took a long time for this matter to subside."
Xu Qinghuan said: "The female officer my mother mentioned is Rong Xiao."
Mrs. Anyihou nodded: "Rong Xiao is pitiful, she was sent to be a concubine in Prince Jian's mansion Sigh, a girl was ruined like this."
Mrs. Anyihou, like many people, only knew about Rong Xiao's matter. Xu Qinghuan thought of the appearance when the Empress Dowager mentioned Rong Xiao in the Palace of Compassion, she seemed very calm, but her eyes were actually a bit disappointed.
The queen mother was very disappointed with Rong Xiao. The female officer around her had served her for many years, but she was kicked out of the palace in the end. There was only one reason, and that was that Rong Xiao had betrayed the queen mother.
What role did Rong Xiao play in the Changzhou incident?
Mrs. Xu said: "After investigating several officials, there was such a big commotion, but the situation in Changzhou is still the same as before. When I returned to Changzhou this time, I heard that those who reported on corrupt officials are no longer in Changzhou. Everyone tried their best to sue a corrupt official, thinking that there would be a good life, but who knew that after leaving, a man named Zhang came and a man named Wang came, who were equally greedy and lawless.
Now that the imperial court has finally thoroughly investigated Changzhou, it has finally done a good deed. "
Xu Qinghuan suddenly thought of Wang Yun, isn't Wang Yun also a highly praised honest official?
The person behind Wang Yun seemed to like doing such things very much. He used shady methods behind his back, but he wanted to stand in front of people with vigor and vigor, and be supported by the people.
Such a person is even more terrifying than the Zhang family.
? Xu Qinghuan sorted out her thoughts. If Rong Xiao betrayed the Queen Mother and was given to King Jian by the Queen Mother, would Rong Xiao be working for King Jian?
Will King Jian be the person behind Wang Yun?
Prince Jane's Mansion.
Rong Xiao looked at the woman in the mirror.
The woman smiled sweetly: "Am I beautiful?"
Rong Xiao nodded: "Mei, you are the most beautiful woman."
The smile on the woman's face disappeared: "Then why did he dislike me? Do you remember what he said about me?"
Rong Xiao swallowed and began to shake her head.
The woman said: "He said that I am a slut who can do everything I can, and the one in my stomach is also a slut. I don't deserve to stand by his side, and I don't deserve to be favored by himI"
Before the woman finished speaking, Rong Xiao covered her ears with a painful expression on her face.
The woman continued: "I should have died a long time ago, I have no face to live in this world."
