Chapter 406

Another salesgirl seems to think it's not appropriate to talk about this topic in the store, but the guests around are very interested. When she is in the mood, it's not easy to interrupt. When she sees that the topic turns back to the woman just now, in order not to leave the impression of saying bad things behind the guests, she can only try to say a few good words to the woman: "the Lady Wang just now, In fact, it's easy to get along with people, and it's easy to buy things. Sometimes when we don't take good care of ourselves, we are willing to forgive as long as we are willing to apologize sincerely. It's just that we like to be lively, and sometimes we don't like to be lonely. "

Shi Xiaorui really wants to clap for the girl. It's not easy to explain this woman's wonderful behavior as this. Although it's not so convincing, after she said that, no matter what she thought, the guests still bypassed the topic.

"Is it the emperor who gave her tens of thousands of Liang before? Did she really buy so many things? "

The salesgirl nodded: "yes, I bought it almost a month ago. I was there at that time, so I could recognize Mrs. Wang. But we don't know whether the emperor rewarded the money or not. "

The girl is very strict in her speech. She looks more stable than the one beside her.

Although there was no way to determine whether such a large amount of silver was awarded by the emperor, the enthusiasm of this small group of guests was ignited, and another round of discussion immediately started.

"Alas, it's a pity that my daughter's life is ordinary, otherwise she will be called into the palace. Maybe she can be a lady and take her home with her."

"No, look at the land in the outskirts of Beijing. How much is uncle Qian's land? If he doesn't do anything about the land of other noble people, the land of ordinary people is already small, and how much has been robbed and cheated by him!"

"If you want me to say that Princess Qian is still in favor, she has no son. She has become a princess just by giving birth to a princess!"

"The emperor certainly gave money to the Qian family. Why does uncle Qian have to buy so much land? It's not that he can't live any longer!"

"You think, the emperor has so many concubines here. Now I like them, maybe I won't like them any more. When the time comes, I'll put them aside. Concubine Qian has no son, and there will be no fiefdom in the future. You can't buy more property while the emperor likes them, so as not to make life difficult in the future!"

"How can I say there's still a princess here!"

"When the princess gets married, she still has her own life to live. How can she keep an eye on the foreigners all the time? Besides, the money family buys land everywhere. Maybe there is a share of the princess in it. It's hard to say!"

"How old is Princess Qian? Maybe she can have another prince in the future?"

"Uncle Qian is more than 30 years old. Concubine Qian is only older. She is certainly not as young as concubine Wang Shufei and has a good child-bearing ability!"

A few people chatter, the money did not leave the princess also pulled out with the new princess to do a comparison.

A good zhuyutang becomes a teahouse for chatting. The two salesgirls are too embarrassed to stop the guests from talking about this topic. Shi Xiaorui and Yu Qingzhan listen to the gossip in their head, and finally buy nothing and go home empty handed.

When he had dinner in the evening, Yu Qingzhan still sighed: "the Emperor didn't delay. He said that if he wanted to cut the vassal, he would cut the vassal. He couldn't wait for a moment. How could the princes in his harem be settled? Don't cut the clan's vassal and give it back to your son. It will be a joke then! "

Qu Jiang didn't know what they heard in the afternoon, but he calmly interjected: "don't think about it. It must be like this. Now there are feudal princes who are not close to him, but they occupy a lot of good places. Now many of his sons have grown up. They will love their sons, but they will be sent to remote and poor places. If that's true, The tears in the back palace can drown the emperor! "

Qu Jiang broke his hand and gave them the index: "the third prince born by the queen won't say it. If it goes well, it will be the prince. The other big princes, second princes and fourth princes are all grown up, and they are not suitable to live in the palace any more. But after they get married, they will go directly to the feudal state according to the Convention. Because they haven't chosen the feudal land, they haven't got married until now. They have been dragging on, but they are worried about many ministers!"

Yu Qingzhan wondered: "the emperor and his concubines are worried. What are the ministers worried about?"

Qu Jiang asked: "don't the princes have a foreign family? In recent years, the emperor likes women who are elected from the people's families. There is no influence in the family, so he is very happy to reward a house and give some money. However, in the first few years when the emperor ascended the throne, he married the daughters of many important ministers. Most of these grown-up princes are courtiers. Don't you worry when you see that their future is uncertain?

In addition, there is the Ministry of rites. It's the duty to worry about. But the cost of the prince's marriage comes from the national treasury. Now it's no secret that the National Treasury is empty. With no money and no land, what do princes expect to get married? "

Yu Qingzhan said in a low voice: "so the princes are pitiful..."

Qu Jiang said with a smile: "it's the first good luck to be born as a prince. What's the pity? The emperor can't put off their marriage all his life. If you want to be pitiful, you will be pitiful to the later princes and concubines. In a few years, it is estimated that all the concubines will be born in front of you. If you want to be pitiful, I'm afraid there will be more than one or two. "

Shi Xiaorui is also strange: "don't you mean you can't get married?"

Qu Jiang replied, "it's OK not to marry a concubine. There's no such restriction on concubines and concubines."

"Well, I think it's too easy."

Moju brought up a large basin of black chicken soup and interrupted the conversation for a while: "let's eat first. It's cold now, and the soup will be cold after a while."

This pot of chicken soup is very good. There is not much yellow chicken oil on the surface. Mohju knows that Shi Xiaorui doesn't like it. After boiling the soup, she uses the minced chicken on the surface of the chicken soup to absorb all the oil.

But these days, unlike in modern times, people pay attention to eating low oil and low salt food. After taking away the oil, the minced chicken is mixed with a little seasoning, wrapped with egg white and flour, and deep fried in a pot to make it golden and fragrant. They give Jinmiao and Suwan half of each. The two children don't lift their heads, especially Jinmiao. After a few mouthfuls, they can't eat it.

Shi Xiaorui looked at their delicious food, and immediately had a great appetite, but at home, they usually ate light food at night. Today's black chicken soup with yam, Shi Xiaorui gave Yu Qingzhan a big bowl full of fish: "eat more, don't mention it. My huokang hasn't been made these days. You can drink more hot soup at night, and you can sleep well!"
