The beauty of the lady

Chapter 61 Entering Beijing (2)
"The second wife is very beautiful? Or is it because of a good family background?" This is the only thing Zhou Mei can think of. Don't men care about these two things?

"Very beautiful, and her family background is also very good. Her father used to be the Minister of the Household Department, was in the second-rank compound, and was also the elder of the court. However, when the new emperor succeeded to the throne, most of the senior officials of the previous emperor were suppressed. Sun Dianchen, Minister of the Household Department, was also dismissed, and I heard that he was dispatched to Northwest County as a county magistrate, and the Sun family was also ransacked."

After hearing her mother's words, Zhou Mei came to another conclusion. She is really powerful. The wife of a merchant who usually doesn't leave the door knows so much.

Zhou Mei looked at the chess game in front of her, she was three and a half eyes behind, and lost the seventh game today.

"That is to say, the Zhao family is no longer what it used to be, and they still have a blood feud with us?"

"I can't say blood feud, but Mother hopes that in the future, they will not interfere with each other, and the well water will not interfere with the river water." She hoped that she would never have anything to do with the Chengbei Hou Mansion in this life.

Zhou Mei didn't say anything. Although she had her own thoughts in her heart, she always felt that the Chengbeihou Mansion was inextricably linked with her, and they kept talking.

Yanjing, Mingxiang Tea House.

In a private room on the third floor, Yin Yanqing sat upright on a soft chair, watched the cars coming and going downstairs, and after a long time of silence in the room, said: "Little sister wants a good house, and the location is better than that." Clean, what do you think is better, big brother?"

"Two, on the same street, which side do you think is better?" Yun Zhongren said lightly.

When Yin Yanqing heard this, the pair of tiger eyes suddenly widened, and almost fell out of their sockets.

"Eldest brother, don't be joking, even if the junior sister is not short of the tens of thousands of taels of silver, the deeds of the two houses are all in the hands of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Whether you can show it is another matter. Whether the emperor sells it is another matter." gone."

"I think Nangong Mansion is very good, at least better than Princess Huijue's Mansion. Although it is not as big as Princess Mansion, the structure inside is more refined and grand than Princess Mansion."

"Big Brother."

"Besides, those two houses have been vacant for decades. Although they are taken care of by the Ministry of Internal Affairs every year, they are still not popular after all, and they have ruined the good houses..."

"Eldest brother..." Yin Yanqing finally interrupted Yun Zhongren.

"What's the matter?" Yun Zhongren looked up at him.

"Then Wei Wangfu's Fengshui is not good." Yin Yanqing gritted his teeth.

Yun Zhongren nodded noncommittally, but what he said next made Yin Yanqing feel like he was hallucinating.

"It's because of bad feng shui that no one has lived in it all the time. It's cheaper for my junior sister."

"..." Are you really our elder brother?Is it possible that the extraordinarily friendly look she usually shows is a lie?
The Prince Wei's Mansion was ransacked and exterminated due to treason in the previous dynasty. Nangong, the first family of a prince with a foreign surname, has long been lost in the torrent of history and no longer exists.However, being the mansion of the Nangong family during the prominent period is good or bad, but it is because of the great influence caused at that time, and it still makes some elders have lingering fears.

His grandfather once participated in the action of strangling Prince Wei's rebels. It is said that not only Caishikou, but even Prince Wei's mansion was bloody. It is said that the bloody aura lingered for several months.

How can the little junior sister live in such a mansion with a strong evil spirit.

"Eldest brother, did junior sister secretly pour laxatives into your tea bowl, or did she offend you elsewhere?" He half-covered his mouth and asked in a low voice.

Yun Zhongren picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, then looked at Yin Yanqing with a half-smile, and said, "What did you say, how can such a well-behaved girl as my sister do such low-grade things?"

"Since there is no one, I think the house on Chengfu Street is also good. Why did the elder brother think of Wei Wang's mansion? The house deed is the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Because the fate of Wei Wangfu was too miserable, the two houses on Changfu Street, which used to be the first street in Yanjing, have been empty for decades and no one lives in them. The reason was rejected.

Do you want those high-ranking officials in Beijing to live in?Do not make jokes.

If every time the person on the dragon chair thinks of them and thinks of them living in the original Wei Palace, it is definitely not a joke.

If you have been conscientious and conscientious all the time, it is okay to say that you have made no mistakes, but if you do something wrong, it may be because of this house that your mistakes will be magnified infinitely, and your head may be lost. No one has a few lives, which can afford you to squander .

Besides, since ancient times, how many people have been officials for the sake of the people?Most of them are not for the purpose of leaving a name in history, honoring their ancestors, and being a master.

"Brother, if you make such a decision, you will already be inferior."

"Junior Sister is not an official, that girl enjoys a lot more than you and I. How can she be inferior?" Yun Zhongren didn't think so. He had known Junior Sister for almost five years. From the first time he saw that girl, he felt From the bottom of my heart, I feel that this child does not seem to come from an ordinary family. He usually speaks and does things in a manner, but he is very thoughtful, and his every move is quite demeanor. Feeling angry, he felt that the girl would not care about the predecessor of Wei Wangfu.

"In short, I don't think it's right." Although Yin Yanqing is not as good-looking as Yun Zhongren, he loves the junior sister no less than the senior brother. He just thinks that Wei Wangfu is not suitable for the junior sister.

Understanding Yin Yanqing's thoughts, Yun Zhongren poured him tea and said, "Don't worry, she will be satisfied."

Besides, a few days ago, he had already played with Prince Chun. Later, Prince Chun gave him the house deed of Prince Wei’s mansion for 5 taels of silver. Of course, if he stood in the position of Prince Chun, he would do the same. If you can’t reward it, you might as well sell it and put it into the treasury. Now the Yan Dynasty’s treasury receives 400 million taels of silver every year, but the annual surplus is less than 5%, and [-] taels is still a good piece of meat.

When Zhou Mei received the news, it was already half a month later. It was no accident, but when Zhao Shi saw the deed, he was also a little surprised.

"Is this the house your elder brother helped us find?" Zhao asked.

"Well, I didn't expect that the former palace was actually the palace. Although it has been uninhabited for nearly 30 years, I heard that it has been well preserved. I didn't expect someone to sell the palace." But this is also understandable, after all, modern There are also special auctions for government vehicles.

"Mother, is there something to say about this house?" Otherwise, how could it have been vacant for nearly 30 years.

Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "The owner of Wei Wangfu's surname is Nangong. He is the only king of the opposite sex since the founding of the Yan Dynasty. He is also a prince. He used to be a brother who fought with Taizu. The Taizu of the clan obeyed the destiny to become the founding emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty, and the Taizu was grateful for the benevolence and righteousness of the Patriarch Nangong, and named him a prince. It is not an exaggeration, but the first generation of founding queen is the direct younger sister of Patriarch Nangong..."
