Chapter 339 Dislike
Ms. Xu looked at Xie Zhihui lovingly. She heard her granddaughter Xie Zhiqian secretly tell her that her two older sisters were very friendly to her. Mrs. Xu was very good at keeping a low profile all her life, otherwise Xie Tiao's aunt was the only one who gave birth to a son, and finally got married and had children when she grew up.
"The second girl is polite. How can a servant be called an elder in front of the masters? It is also a blessing for a servant to serve the second girl." Although Xu said so, she didn't insist anymore, and stood aside with her hands down.
Xie Zhihui breathed a sigh of relief. When she looked up and saw her grandfather coming in, she hurriedly stepped forward and followed the elders to salute her grandfather.
Xie Tiao was followed by three sons, Xie Yuanbai was still in military uniform, he and Yuan Shi exchanged a glance, his dark eyes were full of concern, Yuan Shi lowered his head shyly like a little girl, even the roots of his ears were red.
It is impossible for Xie Yuanbai to have the same feelings for Yuan Shi as he did for Cui Shi in his life. From his childhood sweetheart in Zongjiao, to his youthful love, to his love for marriage, and his love for each other after marriage, it can be said that Xie Yuanbai once thought about loving Cui with his life.
Half of his life has gone with Cui Shi, and now, he and Yuan Shi only spend the rest of his life hand in hand, but it is still better than most couples who respect each other like guests in the world, he hopes Yuan Shi will follow him able to be happy.
Since he married Yuan Shi, he couldn't embarrass her, Yuan Shi was innocent after all.
Seeing Yuan Shi's cowardly appearance, although Xie Yuanbai was not emotional/moved, he was a little happy. She is a kind woman, and that's enough.
"I called you here today to tell you a piece of good news. The eldest girl has made great achievements in Juzhou City. Although the rewards from the palace have not yet come down, there should be a decree when the gate of Juzhou City opens at the latest."
When Xie Tiao said this, almost everyone except Xiao Shi was ecstatic.
Xie Tiao looked around at everyone, his granddaughter is not gold, silver and jewelry, so it is impossible for everyone to love her, but seeing the expression on Xiao's face, Xie Tiao was still unhappy, and said to herself, Feng's chosen this Daughter-in-law is another one who can't get on the stage.
"I told you about this in advance, because I was afraid that there would be rumors coming from outside. If you don't know, you will lose your temper when you hear it at once. Although this is a happy event, since ancient times, is it rare that extreme joy turns into sorrow? The Xie family always Always keep in mind the principle of being full of losses and modest benefits, if someone says it in front of you, you should know how to say it, right?"
Everyone stood up, bowed their heads in front of the old man and said, "Yes!"
Xie Tiao was very satisfied, waved his hand, asked people to sit down, first told Yuan Shi to sort out some of the big girl's things, and sent them over in a few days, don't wrong the big girl, and encouraged a few children and grandchildren to say, "You should be your big sister As an example, you have to study hard and practice **** weekdays, and only at critical times can you have the opportunity to serve the country and earn honor for the family "and so on.
After some explanations, it was not too late, so Xie Tiao let two tables be opened in Ruichun Hall, one table for men and one table for women, Xie Zhiwei was not there, and the family celebrated briefly before leaving.
Here in Juzhou City, after the situation stabilized, the atmosphere in the city became much better. In addition, after the remnants of the White Lotus Sect were wiped out by Xiao Xun, there were no such strange voices. The common people were happy, and some shops Merchants began to open their doors to do business. Although the prices of some necessities, such as rice noodles and medicinal materials, were supplied by the imperial court, the prices of some necessities could not rise, which was the same as in previous years.
In this way, the lives of ordinary people are peaceful and peaceful.
"Drive!"
The gates of the city were wide open, and a team of imperial cavalry wearing masks rushed in from outside the city, running all the way, shouting all the way, "The imperial court has brought ten thousand stones of grain and ten carts of medicinal materials, please go and hand them over, Mr. Zhang!"
Shouting so loudly and repeatedly is to calm the hearts of the people in the city.
Sure enough, when the people on the road heard this, everyone smiled, and some elderly women even knelt down on the spot and bowed to the north, clasping their hands together, "Your Majesty is such a good person, the court is full of good people." !"
"This is a good time!"
"When things are good, I don't even look at who is in charge of the formation outside. I heard that it is His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince. Today, the emperor is the most capable and the prince who cherishes the people the most. If His Royal Highness is not personally in charge of the formation, Do you think the food and medicine allocated by the imperial court can be transported in such a complete manner?"
Anyone can figure it out. There are a total of 10,000 shi of grain. There are still more than 100,000 people in this city. One half a catty of grain per day is more than enough for a month.
When everyone heard it, it made sense, this world belongs to the Xiao family, and only the four princes are in charge, so the money and food allocated by the court will not be swallowed. And this can also be seen from another aspect, His Royal Highness the fourth prince is indeed a good prince with the world in mind.
This compliment was heard by Xiao Changxuan, who was drinking tea with Xue Wanqing. After hearing this, he couldn't help being overjoyed, raised his teacup and said to Xue Wanqing, "Miss Xue, I have your help. God bless you!"
Xue Wanqing saw that Xiao Changxuan still had a hint of worry on his brows, so he took a sip of tea and asked, "Your Highness still has something unresolved in his heart, presumably because of being demoted because of his empress status and being in the cold palace again?"
"Exactly!" Xiao Changxuan said, "I'll tell you the truth, in the harem, the fate of mother and child is connected. If the mother's status is not high, it may be a burden to me. And now the mother is suffering in the Qutai Hall. Son, how can I bear it?"
After finishing speaking, Xiao Changxuan lowered his head slightly, but he didn't see Xue Wanqing's flashing contemptuous gaze, and he naturally wouldn't have thought that Xue Wanqing had already begun to despise him so much that he looked forward to Shu.
Neither the plot setting in the book nor Xue Wanqing himself, who has traveled through time, never thought about helping Xiao Changxuan get the throne, Xue Wanqing knew that Xie Zhiwei alone, there is no Xie family It is impossible to help Xiao Changxuan break out of the siege and finally get the throne.
It was Lu Yan who played a major role in the middle. Lu Yan influenced the emperor's will and named Xiao Changxuan the prince.
At that time, because Lu Yan was poisoned by hook kisses, he ran out of fuel and could not live for two years. Naturally, it was not for himself but for Xie Zhiwei. capable.
Xue Wanqing originally wanted to pretend that she didn't understand Xiao Changxuan's words, but if so, Xiao Changxuan might think that she was incapable of helping his mother out of trouble, so she said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty is no longer young, people are getting more and more ruthless. Your Majesty also I am not a sentimental person. Although the son is more expensive than the mother, and the status of the princes is related to the mother's birth, but when they grow up, they still rely on their own talents. The empress's birth is not low, and now she is relegated to the music because she made a mistake. Taidian, instead of spending more time on your empress, your highness should think about how to make meritorious service, as long as your highness can stand out among the princes, is it possible that in the future, your empress will not be as expensive as a mother and a child?"
