    Fifty-eight: Wedding gift (fourth and fifth updates)

    Bai Shinian said worriedly, "I also know that you and the emperor are as close as father and daughter. However, I heard that the eldest princess's dowry does not exceed 100,000 taels, and the second princess's dowry does not exceed 100,000 taels. Although you and the emperor are as close as father and daughter,  , but you can¡¯t be so kind to one. Your Majesty is too kind to you. Excessive affection is a disaster, not a blessing.¡±

    Although Wen Wan was wary of guarding against the emperor, it was not about the dowry.  I felt funny about Bai Shinian's words.  That's the point.  "That dowry is just a drop in the bucket compared to the money I earn. Besides, you don't have to worry about this. I will take care of it. Just do your part. I won't say I will give it to you."  You are very helpful, but I won¡¯t bring you any trouble or hold you back, don¡¯t worry.¡±

    Bai Shinian asked thoughtfully, "You mean, all the money you earned over the years was given to the emperor. You didn't keep any for yourself." Although Wen Wan had said before that she didn't have much money.  But hearing and confirming are completely different feelings.

    Wen Wan said indifferently, "If it weren't for the purpose of replenishing the emperor's internal treasury, I wouldn't be working so hard to make money. My annual expenses are only three to four thousand taels of silver, and I can't even spend it to earn gold and silver!"  But the emperor's uncle is very short of money, so he is tired." Speaking of this, Wen Wan said with a smile: "It is said that I am as rich as the country. My property is only registered in the palace.  The property is not mine, so I have to rely on you to support my family in the future!"

    Bai Shinian was happy when he heard this: "In two days, I will ask my sister-in-law to hand over the property to you. Those properties are enough for us to have enough food and clothing." He naturally knew that Wen Wan was joking.  Even if these industries are not gentle.  Wenwan is indispensable for a lifetime of prosperity and wealth.  Where does he need to be raised?  But Wenwan can say this, and it proves it.  It's really going in a good direction.

    Since Wen Wan is the hostess of the general's mansion.  It was only natural to take over the affairs of the mansion.  It would be strange if he didn't answer.  Wen Wan remembered what Bai Shinian said that day, and she didn't worry about Bai Shinian's face that day.  I don¡¯t want to make him lose face again this time.  So he smiled and said: "Okay, tell them. Let them hand over the account to me."

    Bai Shinian expressed his gratitude.  Then he talked about going to the Ministry of War to ask for weapons.  Thinking of this, Bai Shinian felt awe-inspiring.  Suddenly he had an idea.  Whether the new weapon will be gentle or not has something to do with it.  Bai Shinian asked carefully: "Do you know about the new weapons developed by the Ministry of War?"

    Wen Wan glanced at Bai Shinian in surprise.  There was silence for a moment.  No one other than the emperor knew about these things.  Wen Wan lowered her head and thought for a moment: "I know about the weapons. It was I who suggested that the emperor's uncle summon the world's craftsmen to develop new weapons that can restrain Manchu lovers. But that's all. I didn't participate in the follow-up. I don't know either."

    Bai Shinian looked at Wen Wan and his mind went into panic.  If that's the case, is there anything Wen Wan hasn't done yet?  Wen Wan really just makes money and does not participate in other government affairs.  Impossible, thinking about previous crop promotion and disaster relief incidents.  Bai Shinian blurted out without thinking, "Daughter-in-law, do you often give advice to the emperor?"

    Wen Wan looked at Bai Shinian suspiciously: "Where did you hear that? Did Ye Xun say it?"

    Bai Shinian immediately shook his head: "I guessed it myself. Wife, are you actually involved in politics?" If so.  He could also understand why the big men in the Ministry of War did not dare to slack off on him.  Otherwise, Wen Wangui will be considered the distinguished princess.  These people won't pay much attention to him.  But when Bai Shinian thought of Ye Xun's warning, his heart suddenly pounded: "Daughter-in-law, is this inappropriate?" Women in the harem are not allowed to interfere in politics, and every woman who does does so will end badly.

    Wen Wan guessed what Bai Shinian was thinking and said with a smile: "Since I am honored as Princess Xingguo and participate in political affairs, others have nothing to say. The emperor's uncle honored me as Princess Xingguo in order to prevent others from talking about it.  . Otherwise, there is no need to seal it." Seeing Bai Shinian's face becoming more and more serious, Wen Wan held Bai Shinian's hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will only tell the emperor's uncle about these suggestions.  It's just a guess, I don't know what suggestions I made. Moreover, I have always spoken these suggestions and not written them down. "Wen Wan means that she is just a staff member.  If you don't come forward directly, nothing will happen.

    Bai Shinian's face looked a little complicated.  He didn't know what to say.  Really, it's like lifting a veil of gentleness. I thought I saw my true face, but I didn't expect that there was still a veil underneath.  Now that Daqi is able to have today's grand occasion, Wen Wan deserves the most credit.  Is God too kind to him, or too cruel to him?  He feels a lot of pressure for such an all-powerful wife (Bai Shinian has low self-esteem).  After a long time, Bai Shinian hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, why do you want to participate in political affairs?" Bai Shinian really couldn't understand this.  He thinks it's normal for Wenwan to make money by doing business.  Because ??Wan has shown the means to make money since she was a child.  But he really couldn't understand Wen Wan interfering in political affairs.  Even if Wen Wan is the young master of Fuxi, he is a young man with talents.  But how could the emperor let Wen Wan participate in politics without any taboo.

    Speaking of this, Wen Wan can¡¯t understand it either.  But what Wen Wan can't understand is the emperor's grandfather: "It's not the emperor's uncle, it's the emperor's grandfather." If Wen Wan hadn't been pervertedly trained by the emperor and beaten to death, she wouldn't have participated in politics.  However, everything is developing unstoppably towards the design of the emperor's grandfather.  It is estimated that the emperor's grandfather, who had a keen sense of smell like an old fox, sensed many of her ideas for the benefit of the country.  However, her temper back then was unbearable for the heavy responsibility.  Therefore, I trained her very patiently.  Hey, I can't bear to look back when I think of those past events.  In this way, she was successfully trained by the emperor's grandfather.

    Bai Shinian was even more puzzled: "Why did the late emperor do this?"

    Wen Wan stood up, shook her hand, and it hurt a little from the pressure: "You ask me, how do I know? I am not the tapeworm in the emperor's grandfather's belly. He is a divine arithmetic. With my little skills, I can give  It¡¯s not even enough for him to fill his teeth.¡±

    Speaking of the late emperor, Bai Shinian respected him very much.  If it hadn't been for the late emperor's efforts to turn the tide, the world might have been torn apart long ago.  Where is the peaceful and prosperous age like today?  Thinking that the late emperor even gave Wen Wan the Mirror Garden.  He forced the late emperor to show his favor to Wen Wan, as if the current emperor didn't care about this favor: "Did the late emperor treat you as a man?"

    Wen Wan thought about what happened back then and had to sigh: "I don't know. But I was really useless at that time. The palace maid who was beaten to death was covered in blood. I was so frightened that I fell asleep for three days and three nights, and also had a high fever. Good.  After I died, I had nightmares again and again. Grandpa Emperor taught me this, probably to help me protect myself better!" Wei Wei sighed: "Actually, it was because of Grandpa Emperor's blessing that I lived in the last two years.  . I miss my grandma very much. I am loved by him all the time.¡±

    Bai Shinian was surprised.  The late emperor did not like Queen Qi the most.  For this reason, the original wife was not made the queen.  how¡­¡­

    Wen Wan said cheerfully: "What I saw and heard may not be true. My grandpa loves my grandma very much. In fact, in comparison, the emperor's grandpa loves me more than the emperor's uncle." After speaking, he lowered his voice like a thief.  He said: "The emperor's grandpa gave me many treasures as a dowry. Those were not included in the dowry list. Therefore, the emperor's uncle gave me quantity. The emperor's grandpa gave me quality." If the emperor heard this.  To vomit blood.  But what Wen Wan said was also true.  In the last half year, the late emperor privately rewarded Wen Wan with many treasures.  Basically, everything Wen Wan liked back then, except for some things that could not be rewarded, was given to Wen Wan as her dowry.

    Bai Shinian didn¡¯t care much about treasures or anything like that.  After looking at Wen Wan's six-hundred-dollar dowry, Wen Wan found that all the strange things he took out were of high quality. If he made a fuss about it, it would appear that he was petty.  However, Bai Shinian couldn't help but sincerely praise the former emperor for being so powerful in training Wen Wan.  The one who benefits is the Emperor, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Daqi, and the tens of millions of people in the world.

    Wenwan¡¯s admiration for Bai Shinian.  He laughed: "Although I occasionally give advice. If it weren't for the emperor's wise uncle who rectified the internal affairs, the court would not have recovered so quickly. If you hadn't driven out the Japanese pirates, I wouldn't have been able to make so much money.  . Ocean trade is the first step. Besides, you don¡¯t really think that the money I earn can be of such great use. Even without my help, the emperor¡¯s uncle is not as good as he is now.  He is so arrogant that without her, Daqi would not be what it is today.  Without her, the emperor could still manage the court well.  She played a supporting role.  The emperor's uncle's wise decision-making and diligent administration are the foundation.

    Bai Shinian admitted that the emperor had the talent to govern the country and was a wise king.  But Wenwan's help to the emperor is absolutely immeasurable: "I don't deny that the emperor is a wise king. But without you, the emperor would not have been able to rectify the internal affairs so easily. Not to mention that the internal affairs would be so clear now. Without you,  It will take at least ten years, and it will not be as comfortable as it is now.¡±

    Wen Wan smiled and said: "I saved a lot of time for the emperor's uncle and made his life easier. I also received the highest honor. Now it is no exaggeration to say that I am inferior to one person and superior to tens of thousands of people." Cong Gong said  My relationship with the emperor is mutually beneficial. Personally speaking, the emperor is my only relative, and I can't see him being so tired. Besides, it's good now that the border is still at war, but the people in the interior are living and working in peace and contentment.  When you come back from the war, you will be completely fine." Wen Wan paused and praised Bai Shinian with a smile: "Speaking of which, you also take a lot of credit for the success of the court.  Without you and your soldiers to eliminate the Japanese pirates, it would be difficult to open the sea ban. Without the bloodshed and sacrifices of you, you would be the greatest.  Yes. "Wen Wan.It was said very skillfully.  She said you, not you.  This means that Wen Wan respects all soldiers, including Bai Shinian.

    Bai Shinian looked at Wen Wan, his eyes sparkling, igniting countless hopes: "Daughter-in-law, as long as the court can provide strong support and build more new weapons. Maybe I can end the war in less than ten years. I  Can come back early.¡±

    Wen Wan blinked her eyes: "Really?"

    Bai Shinian nodded affirmatively: "It's absolutely true and I will never break my promise."

    Wen Wan did not give a guarantee: "Normal military supplies, food and weapons, I can assure you, you will never miss a point. But when it comes to new weapons, this is a matter for experts, I will not give empty guarantees, after all, I am very familiar with this  They are laymen. However, I will try my best to urge them." It would be nice to not have to wait ten years, even if it takes two or three years!  If that's the case, she can help.  Thinking of this, Wen Wan suppressed the heat.  She didn't know anything about weapons and equipment, so she only provided money as a support.  She didn't dare to guarantee how long it would take to let professionals develop and research it.

    Bai Shinian heard that Wen Wan could guarantee the normal supply of military supplies, food, wages and weapons, and thought it was enough.  He also knows a lot about the internal affairs of the border.  Although in the past two years, because of the emperor's wisdom and martial prowess, and Wen Wan, he was able to make money.  Are they no longer short of military pay?  But for these big men in the capital, you still need to take care of them from top to bottom, otherwise you will be delayed.  The reasons are all legitimate, leaving you with no evidence or a handle.

    Why did Qi Quan only defend but not attack later on?  That's because years of surrendering to reality have worn away his energy.  External and internal pressures.  Let him just want to maintain the status quo.  No more gumption.  Of course, just seeking safety as you get older is also a reason.  If he came to power and Wen Wan was in charge in the capital, these people wouldn't have the guts to deduct military supplies, food and pay.  He doesn't need to worry about internal affairs at the border at all, and can save his energy to deal with the Manchus.  Bai Shinian thought it was quite beautiful when he thought about it.  If so, he would really be able to come back early and hold his wife and children in their arms.

    Although Wen Wan is happy that Bai Shinian may come back early.  But this is like a painted pie, you can only look at it but not eat it.  Wen Wan doesn't want to discuss it further.  Rather than fearing that your expectations will be disappointed later, it is better not to have expectations in the first place.

    Wenwan took out the embroidery from the corner of the bed and showed it to Bai Shinian: "Look what this is?"

    Bai Shinian looked left and right: "Daughter-in-law. What is this? A mandarin duck?"

    Wen Wan seemed not to hear the uncertainty in Bai Shinian's words.  He was very happy and said, "Husband, you are so amazing." He asked three people.  Xia Yao said they were not alike, and others Wen Wen did not repeat it.  Unexpectedly, Bai Shinian could tell at a glance that the embroidery was a mandarin duck.  What a discerning man!  She said in a gentle manner that she was really discerning.

    Bai Shinian was so happy to see Wen Wan that he couldn't find anything to say. In fact, he was very embarrassed. Just now he saw Wen Wan deliberately showing off, and then he saw that the pillow was embroidered with mandarin ducks, so he said it casually.  I didn't expect it to be a mandarin duck.  This is also a mandarin duck, just a bunch of messy lines.  But in order not to make Wen Wan depressed, we stopped the topic here.

    Wen Wan but seemed to have no self-awareness at all, she still said with interest: "Bai Shinian, this is the mandarin duck pillow I originally made. Unfortunately, the craftsmanship is too poor. Do you think it would be good to make a purse."

    Bai Shinian laughed out loud: "As long as you dare to ask me to do it, my wife, I will do it. When people ask me who did the embroidery, I will tell the truth."

    Wen Wan knocked Bai Shinian down and said, "Bad guy, your sincerity makes me lose face." Wen Wan beat Bai Shinian hard.  Of course, just a gentle thump.  It's just a joke between the couple.

    Bai Shinian waited until Wenwan¡¯s hand hurt from the beating. He waved his long arm and rolled the person into his arms: "Stop embroidering in the future. Look at the handles with so many holes. I feel bad for her!"

    Wen Wan whispered: "Bai Shinian, I actually wanted to make you a piece of clothing as a wedding gift. However, I couldn't do it well. As a result, I couldn't embroider a pillow well. I couldn't even embroider a purse well.  "I'm really not a good wife." There was a hint of disappointment in his words.

    Bai Shinian smiled and comforted: "It's okay. There is no sewing room at home. Just let the embroiderers do it. You have to suffer like this!" Letting Wen Wan do embroidery is a waste.  With this time, Wen Wan can come up with better ideas, and the money she earns can buy more embroidery than she can afford.  Of course, Bai Shinian was just thinking about it in his mind.  Didn't really say it.

    Wen Wan really doesn¡¯t mind seeing Bai Shinian.  Hehehe laughed, she was just trying to attract others (it was not meant for Bai Shinian).  Even if Bai Shinian dared to take out this mess of thread, she wouldn't dare to take it out for him to use.  Wen Wan put down the mess of threads in her hands, and then ran to unpack a large box made of vermilion lacquer with red lacquered phoenixes.  He took out a set of bright white clothes from inside.  Wen Wan blushed and said: "Xia Yao said that a wife must give money to her husband when they get married.?Making clothes and shoes.  Forget about clothes and shoes.  If you dare to wear it out, I won't dare to embarrass you.  I made this myself and wear it when I go to bed at night.  "What Wen Wan made is a set of obscene clothes. She can't make other things like clothes, shoes, purses, etc. But she can still make obscene clothes and pants. Anyway, only the couple can see it, and no one else can.  .

    Bai Shinian took Wen Wanlai in surprise.  The needles and threads are all twisted, and there is also a length of short clothes between the previous stitch and the next stitch.  Very ugly.  But Bai Shinian took off his obscene clothes and pants and put them on immediately.

    After putting it on, Wen Wan's face turned really red (Xia Yao complained: I told you earlier that the two sleeves were asymmetrical. I refuse to listen to advice. How can I pretend to be blushing): "It seems that the left sleeve is shorter than the right one.  Point." After Wen Wan sewed the above, Xia Yao said that the two sleeves were a little asymmetrical.  It was absolutely great when she saw it!

    Xia Yao was speechless that she felt good about herself.  It is recommended that someone help you do it, and she will do it appropriately when the time comes.  Wen Wan refused.  If it is done too well, it will be obvious at a glance that it is the work of someone else.  Then the expected effect will not be achieved.  And she wanted something good, but she couldn't find anything good.  Although this outfit is ugly, it has a different meaning since she made it herself.  But now the feeling on my body is more obvious.

    Sure enough, Bai Shinian happily kissed Wen Wan: "No, it's quite beautiful."

    Wen Wan humbly accepted the untrue compliment.  Then he pestered Bai Shinian and said, "My gift has been delivered, where is your gift?"

    Bai Shinian said happily: "I have prepared it a long time ago. However, due to some accidents, I can't get it for the time being. But don't worry, wife, I will show it to you when it is ready. I guarantee you like it."

    Wen Wan was surprised by Bai Shinian's confidence: "Are you sure that I will like the gift you gave me?" There is nothing in this world that she can really like.  Wenwan asked herself if she had.  There are also children.  Other than that, Wen Wan really didn't expect that there would be anything she would like.  Antique calligraphy and paintings are valuable, but they are dispensable.  For the rest, well, Wen Wan couldn't figure out what it was that made Bai Shinian dare to be so convinced.

    Wen Wan¡¯s eyebrows turned: ¡°What if I don¡¯t like it?¡±

    Bai Shinian said without hesitation: "If you don't like it, you can do whatever you want."

    Wen Wan became even more suspicious and joked: "If that's the case, then I'll let you kneel on the washboard. Are you going to kneel or not?"

    Bai Shinian looked at Wen Wan with a smile: "If you like it, can I make any request?"

    Wen Wan nodded without hesitation: "As long as I can do it. I can satisfy your request." If he could really give her something she really likes, Wen Wan would really be able to agree to Bai Shinian's request.  Require.

    After dinner in the evening, the couple walked in the yard.  Talking about what happened in the military camp.  Wen Wan asked if the big house was in such a difficult situation now, he should help.  Bai Shinian chatted with Wen Wan in the past two days. He mentioned his deceased mother several times and accidentally mentioned Bai Shihua several times.  Although they mentioned all the ridiculous dissatisfaction with Bai Shinian in the past, he was also pleased that after his family transformation, Bai Shihua had improved a lot than before.

    This shows that Bai Shinian may not have any interest in other people.  But I still have feelings for my eldest brother, my biological eldest brother.

    Bai Shinian sighed slightly.  Shaking his head, he mentioned that Bai Shihua wanted Mingzhen to go to the border with him a few days ago.  Want to earn some fame.

    Mingjie is the eldest son of Qinghe.  Qinghe gave birth to three sons in total, the eldest son Mingjie, the second son Mingguang, and the third son Minghuai.  No daughter was born.

    Wen Wan saw the helplessness in Bai Shinian's eyes: "What's wrong? Can't Mingjie do it?" She thought for a moment and opened her eyes wide: "Is it possible that Mingjie doesn't know martial arts?"

    Bai Shinian smiled bitterly: "Let's not talk about this anymore." He got a headache when he talked about this.

    Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Wen Wan smiled and changed the subject: "Speaking of martial arts, I remembered how brave you were on the school field that day. Horse riding, archery, and martial arts were all so good. I was ashamed of myself."

    Bai Shinian looked in one direction: "I'm not even interested in the Four Books and Five Classics. So my father hired someone to teach me martial arts. I was bored in the temple, and there was no one to play with, so I had nothing else to do except practice martial arts. These twenty  For many years, I never slacked off.¡±

    Wen Wan hugged Bai Shinian, and her voice was so gentle that it could drip water: "From now on, I will stay with you. I will stay with you all my life. I will never let you be alone again." The feeling of being alone is terrible.  Wenwan has personal experience.  It's just that Bai Shinian is stronger than her.  It can be buried deep in my heart and not be affected.

    Bai Shinian smiled happily: "Okay."

    ps:(*^__^*) Hee hee Guess what gift Bai Shinian will give, dare to brag about Haikou, I promise??Wenwan absolutely loves it.  (To be continued)
