"Your Majesty, there is nothing here, so you have to spend 25,000 taels of silver?" Princess Chun was confused and said worriedly.
"When you read the charter, you won't say this. I dare say that this restaurant will be very popular. I want to go there now! Don't worry, it is definitely a place to make money, and you can't lose money. It will surprise everyone then," King Chun said with a smile. When the princess saw King Chun saying this, she said nothing more. Once the husband has made a decision, the wife cannot refute it.
Shang Qi got the news that his younger brother was in a bad mood recently. He hurriedly came over and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you? In the past few days, I've been watching you not eating well or sleeping well. What's wrong?"
"Brother, why is there no news about the princess? Between me and Shang Feng, who does she want to choose? What should I do if she chooses Shang Feng?" Since meeting Hai Lao that day, Shang Tang has been excited among. But after waiting and waiting, there was still no news. However, news came from the fifth room, saying that unless he died, he would never want anyone else to be his son.
"Don't worry, Wen Wan will have a way to solve this problem. And between you and Shang Feng, Wen Wan will definitely choose you." Shang Li said confidently. Shangtang was very surprised, why must it be so?
"Because he has a widowed mother, an untalented brother, a greedy sister-in-law, and two younger sisters who are about to get married. Wenwan will not accept such a mess." These are all things Xu told him one by one. The analysis made him feel more at ease.
Judging from the situation on the day when Shang Tang went to meet Hai Lao, as long as he was adopted, he would definitely be able to enter Hai Family Academy. And my younger brother also completely changed his mind from that day on, thinking only about adoption. You can get guidance from Ebi. No need to work behind closed doors.
"Master, the young lady asked me to tell you. The princess went to the fifth room today. It is estimated that there should be results today." A little maid ran over and said.
Ping nodded to the figurine, indicating that he understood. My wife is also excellent, and she only plans for herself. And she knows more than herself. Some interpersonal interactions and entertainment also require her guidance. Make myself feel a little ashamed. I am even more grateful.
"What are you doing here?" Anshi screamed as soon as she saw Wen Wan. Next to him, Bai Ling said, is it wrong for a daughter to come to see her father? He bowed to Wen Wan very respectfully.
Wenwan waved her hand and made a few strokes. Everyone else is out. Anshi still didn't want to go out. Xia Ying said coldly, "The princess has important things to say to the master. Everyone should avoid it."
An said that she was the master¡¯s wife. There's nothing you shouldn't listen to. Any fool knows that it must be an adoption.
Wen Wan took out the whip and threw it at her feet to shut her up. Anshi looked at her. Obviously, if you don't go out again. The whip does not hit the feet, but the body. Ping Xiangxi reassured An that he was measured.
"Unless I die, otherwise, you are just wishful thinking." Ping Xiangxi looked at Wen Wan and said that he would never agree to let her do such a ridiculous thing. Wen Wan didn't say much. He just took out a document and handed it to him. Ping Xiangxi looked at the document and asked in disbelief if it was true.
"What conditions do you have?" Ping Xiangxi naturally knew that there was no free lunch in the world, and he had such a bad relationship with his second daughter. It's impossible to help him for free.
"The princess said. As long as you agree to the adoption, this document will take effect immediately. Don't worry, the princess has chosen Young Master Shangtang. He is your nephew. Even if he adopts him, he will be of the same mind as you. Moreover, Shang. With a father like that, it will be better for his future if he adopts the name of the princess. You have always cared about the two nephews. This is a matter of mutual benefit. I believe the fifth master has made a decision. Looked straight at Ping Xiangxi.
"Let me think about it." This matter is not a child's play. Ping Xiangxi hesitated a little. He thought his official career was over. Unexpectedly, now, not only can I be reinstated, but it will not be difficult to take further steps in the future. At that moment, my firm determination wavered.
"The princess said yes, but she only has one day to give her a reply in the evening. Otherwise, the princess will ask King Zhou to invalidate this document." The attitude was very tough and did not leave room for Ping Xiangxi to speak.
It¡¯s hard to find a position, but it¡¯s easy to find a vacancy. Ping Xiangxi was a little wavering, but in the end, he went to the long house. Make up your mind towards the Duke.
The Duke of Guo happened to be out on business. As soon as I returned to my mansion, I saw a young man at the door. Seeing him, I rushed up to him and said hurriedly, "Master, the fifth master has been waiting for you for a long time."
The two of them entered the study, and Ping Xiangxi told his brother about the matter.
"Such a good thing, why don't you agree to it? It's just in your name."We have a son, who is our nephew anyway. You don't need to provide him with anything, just let Wen Wan do the rest. Now that I've said it, don't be confused and listen to a woman's words. If you don't seize the opportunity this time, there will be no hope of recovery in your life, and your career will be completely ruined. You are only 35 years old this year, are you willing to be a farm man at home? "Hurry and give Ping Xiangxi a hard blow.
"You have to know that Wen Wan must be a little guilty about your loss of official position, and she also takes into account the feelings of your father. Otherwise, based on her contribution to the clan and the clan leader's preference for her, she What can you do if you directly ask the elders of the sect to open an ancestral hall and enter the family tree? It¡¯s useless even if you object. Taking advantage of such a good opportunity, you all take a step back and you agree! In the name of the princess, you gave up. The princess died early, and Wen Wan suffered so much. She still escaped from death. Who is the murderer behind it? Otherwise, she would be so indifferent to you as a father and hate Anshi so much. Otherwise, she would not be so kind to Song Luoyang. Although I don't know about Wen. Why didn't Wen Wan pursue it? But if she did, it would definitely not be that simple. I can tell you that Wen Wan will definitely not be saved by then. This child has means and strategies. Nothing you want to do will fail. Otherwise, why would there be so many nobles who protect her? They are all powerful people. But think clearly, is it worth staying with you for the rest of your life for such a woman?" Ping Xiangcheng looked at his brother's hesitant expression and immediately became angry.
If it were before, I might not agree. But I have been idle at home for more than half a year, and there is a gentle and carefree woman by my side. Thinking about it, the most important thing is the future. finally. nodded.
Ping Xiangcheng knew that his younger brother was soft-hearted. Afraid of another accident. Immediately, someone sent a letter to Wen Wan and to the clan at the same time. He set the date for tomorrow and said that he would open the ancestral hall tomorrow. Ping Xiangcheng sternly warned everyone not to leak the news. Otherwise, they will be beaten to death with sticks. He stayed with his brother again, and drank some wine, making Ping Xiangxi drunk. Sleep until dawn.
Wenwan got the news, you can reply. Then he sent a letter asking the clan leader to promise to open the ancestral hall tomorrow, and the clan leader replied saying yes. Only then did he notify Shang Tang. Go to the ancestral hall tomorrow. The visitor immediately passed on the news, and both sides were beating gongs and drums.
the next day. Early in the morning, the Duke of Guo had another heart-to-heart talk with Ping Xiangxi. Ping Xiangxi saw that it was Shangtang, and his unhappiness suddenly improved. After all, this is his own nephew. Over the years, he has taken great care of his nephews. So he took Shangtang to the ancestral temple, paid homage to his ancestors, and made corrections and additions to the genealogy. Because of the rush, many things were simplified.
Because Shangtang is the legitimate son, he has come once to read the family tree. Now again. Besides, being someone else's son makes him feel uncomfortable after all, so simplification just fits his mood. The same goes for Ping Xiangxi. The Duke of Guo said: As long as the matter is settled. Nothing else matters.
Wait until Anshi gets the news. It's too late. She was completely confused. She was still thinking that when Wen Wan gets married in the future and needs to rely on her mother's family, she can control her. Unexpectedly, even this wish has come to nothing now. I almost went crazy at the moment.
Shang Feng knew that he was not chosen by Wen Wan, and was frustrated and very sad. I thought I could have a chance to change my destiny. The princess is so rich, she can secretly support the family. Unexpectedly, it's still like this. When his brother found out, he was furious and said he wanted to settle the score with Wen Wan. How could he bully someone like this? What's wrong with my brother?
His sister-in-law was sarcastic in the middle of the yard, saying, "Wenwan is just teasing you." I have chosen Shangtang a long time ago, so I just did it for everyone to see.
Shang Feng lowered his head. The patriarch knew that Wen Wan had left him and Shang Tang behind, so he told him. It is basically impossible for him to get closer to Wen Wan, let alone Shang Tang. The princess wouldn't want his messy home alone. After all, I was dragged down by this family.
"Is this Master Shangfeng's home?" a servant asked outside. His brother was busy shouting, yes, yes, yes. Welcome a young man in.
"Master Shangfeng, this is the name tag given to you by our princess. The princess said that she has already agreed with Hai Lao to let you study in Haijia Academy. All your expenses in the academy will be borne by the princess. Bear it. Until you reach the age of twenty." This means that if you haven't won by the age of twenty, there is no hope. In Haijia Academy, a place where talented people gather and masters gather, if you take the exam twice in six consecutive years and fail to pass the exam (the court will have money to give you the chance to do so, and there will also be people who will fawn over you and give you houses and fields), you will not be able to pass the exam. No??It is possible to continue reading.
"Thank you, thank the princess for me for your great kindness. I will go and thank you in person tomorrow." Shang Feng burst into tears of joy. This is true, the willows are dark and the flowers are bright!
"No need, the princess said, as long as you do well and make a difference, she will be happy. We are all from the same ancestor, so there is no need to be so open-minded. After the words have been passed on, it's time for me to resign." After that, he went out.
"Princess, you are such a good person." Shang Feng's mother came out and said gratefully.
"Good man, why would a good man not recognize him as his elder brother? When he gets there, he will be well-off and drink hot food, and he will go to some college. He can also support the family, so what does this mean now?" her sister-in-law shouted there. In this way, you will get no benefit at all.
"Even with people like you, the princess would not choose my family Shangfeng." Mother Feng shook her head sadly.
"Mom, this is better. I don't have to call others mother, and I have the opportunity to gain fame. With this result, my son is already the happiest." Shang Feng shook his head firmly. He will definitely pass the exam, he will definitely be able to do it.
The second room of the Taira family:
Shang Tang was a little frustrated, and more importantly, he was at a loss. When he just got the news that Shang Feng had also entered the academy, he felt very sad. He didn't have to change his name to someone else's mother, and he could have a good future. "Brother, if you knew this was the case, I would rather not be selected! Anyway, you can go to the academy." Study." Shang Tang felt that he had made a huge loss.
"Nonsense, this proves that the princess has a good heart. This group of people is different from being her brother and being adopted as the princess's heir. Brother, I will not harm you. You will understand how big this is in the future. The difference. You will definitely have a bright future in the future. I don¡¯t know how he is. Brother, don¡¯t be sad, maybe my brother and Qingshui will still rely on you in the future." Looking at Shang Tang, he shook his head and smiled.
It¡¯s only Shangtang who feels that it¡¯s the same whether he¡¯s adopted or not. He himself already knows how difficult it is to go further without connections or money. He has been working in the Ministry of Rites for more than a year, and he has seen that those who are promoted are either rich or have people behind them. Talent and learning are not the most important thing. Unless you have achieved amazing results, how many people can there be?
But if the younger brother is adopted, it will be different. My gentle uncle is the prime minister; he is also on good terms with powerful people such as King Chun and King Zhou; his teacher is Mr. Song, a famous scholar in the world, and his master is Master Hai. These are all connections! As long as Shangtang is willing to work hard, his future will definitely be good.
Actually, these days, even though he said this, he was also very uneasy. He really hopes that his younger brother can be selected by Wen Wan. If so, his younger brother will definitely be able to stand out. In the future, he can marry the legitimate daughter of a high family and have a bright future.
Now, my wish has finally come true. Shang Tang was attracted by Wen Wan. My hanging heart finally let go. He married a virtuous wife and gained fame; Qingshui lived a good life in the Bao family, was pregnant now, and had a firm foothold in the Bao family. The younger brother who has always been worried about the most also has a good future. The three brothers and sisters are all doing well. In this way, she can be worthy of her mother's final entrustment. Believe in my mother, I can die in peace.
At that moment, Shang Li packed his things and sent him to the fifth room. After thinking about it, he didn't give up and took Shang Tang to the fifth room in person. (To be continued)
