Red makeup against the world

Chapter 487
Along the porridge factories of the four major princes' mansions, according to the level of grade, the porridge shops of Hou's mansion and Bo's mansion are in order.

These nobles enjoy the support of the people, and when it is time to pay, none of them shirks.Some of the noble families in decline, even a few of them got together, and they couldn't do nothing.

Entering the city from Changxia Gate in the north is the very bustling Tongfu Street. Because it is close to Nanshi, there are rows of large and small shops along the street, and various signboard banners are floating in the air.

The merchants chose the intersection of Tongfu Street and Yong'an Street, and set up porridge shops in a cross shape, including Xu's porridge shop.
A temporary shed is only one and a half feet wide and three feet deep.There is a stove at the door to cook porridge, but there is no place to steam steamed buns.The servants of the Xu family take turns guarding here.

At this time, Tian Xing's daughter-in-law, Wan Shi, was on duty. From a distance, they saw the two nursing homes in front of them open.

Feng Xing's family wiped off their sweat, and said, "It's almost dinner time, and I don't know if these steamed buns are enough."

After laying it out for a few days, I couldn't finish posting it at the beginning.But seeing that there are more and more people, there is no choice but to come first served.

Wan Shi was kind-hearted, and said: "We hide half of the drawer, those children won't be able to squeeze in, and we will stuff them quietly when the people leave." The youngest son in her family is only two years old. I can't see my children suffering.

Feng Xingjia nodded, took out a food box, and said: "The dinner I brought for you, while there are not many people, you go inside to eat first. When you are busy, you can't take care of it. You should pay attention to your body when you are young."

Wan's smiled gratefully. These daughter-in-laws in charge who came here from Suzhou had a good relationship in private.

……

Xu Wanzhen went to Ronghui Hall to greet Mrs. Xu, had dinner with her, and the two of them went for a walk in the courtyard to digest food.

Although she is one year older, Mrs. Xu's spirit is much better than when she was in Suzhou.She has nothing to worry about now, and everything is going well in the Xu family.

Xu Changzong and his son were released from prison, and the family business is expected to revive.The only marriage that made her worry about Xu Wanzhen was also bestowed by the Empress Dowager, who was also granted the title of fifth-rank pleasant.The affairs of the back house are handled by Xu Wanzhen, and Mrs. Xu has nothing to worry about.

When she was free, she practiced "Two Birds", and felt that her body was much stronger.Walking in the courtyard, even walking several laps does not feel tired.

"Is there any news from your little uncle?"

Xu Wanzhen helped her walk slowly, nodded and said: "I have been staying in the imperial hospital for the past few days. I just sent back the news yesterday that the envoy of Zhaoyuan is willing to implement the method in Dizhou first. If the effect is good, I will invite the queen mother Niang Niang fully implemented it."

This is also a safe strategy, just like any reform in modern times, it is the same reason to find a test field first.It's just that the current epidemic is no different, and I'm afraid I can't afford it.

Seeing her worry, Mrs. Xu said: "Zhener, you are still young. When you reach my age, you will understand what it means to do your best and obey the destiny. Some things cannot be forced."

Xu Wanzhen nodded, yes, I can't force it.Being able to win the land of a state is already considered a great achievement.Back then, Yingzhou waited until the end of the epidemic to start adopting this strategy.

……

In the middle of the night, the prince's mansion was brightly lit.We are about to leave tomorrow, and many things need to be arranged and implemented.

A small black sedan chair was quietly carried in through the side door and into the small courtyard behind the study.

There were no lights in the courtyard, and with the light from outside and the moonlight in the sky, the scenery was dimly shadowed.The prince stood tall, with his hands behind his back, apparently waiting for someone.The dim light reflected on his jade-like cheeks, making his face flickering.

The small black sedan entered the small courtyard, and the porter who carried the sedan chair gently put down the sedan chair, then retreated and closed the courtyard door.

The prince took two steps forward, and two men stepped down from the sedan chair.

One is slightly plump, fair complexion, double chin, about forty years old, with a respectful and modest complexion.

The other had a short beard, and a rough linen kudzu scarf was wrapped around his head, and his facial features were hidden in the scarf, which was not very clear.When he got off the sedan chair and saw the prince, he was so excited that his legs trembled, he walked a few steps quickly, and fell at the prince's feet.

"Your Highness, this subordinate thought that I would never see you again..." His voice was slightly choked up.

The prince bent down slightly, stretched out his hands to support him, and a slight smile appeared on his lips: "Master Du is so loyal, how can this palace fail you?"

From the day he was named the crown prince, Master Du has been by his side to give advice.If he just watched him being exiled, how can he win people's hearts?

"You follow me to the disaster relief. No one knows you there. It will be autumn when you come back. At that time, your appearance will have changed, and you will change your name and surname and live in seclusion. Who knows that you are staying by my side?" the prince said softly.

Master Du was so grateful that he cupped his hands and bowed: "Even if this subordinate is completely heartbroken, I still want to keep the crown prince on the throne!"

After the two finished talking, the fair man cupped his hands and said, "Tian Zifeng, I have met the prince."

"Tian Zifeng," the prince's pupils narrowed, "Sizhou Tian family?"

Tian Zifeng said calmly: "It's in my family." His tone was modest and polite, but there was a faint hint of arrogance.

He does have reasons to be proud.

The Sizhou Tian family is a family of masters and has been passed down for 200 years.Even if the dynasty changes, it will not affect the inheritance of the Tian family.Regardless of the dynasty or generation, officials are needed to govern the world.As for officials, they need the assistance of their masters.

The little master looks inconspicuous and not popular, but he is the right-hand man and confidant of the officials.

And the Tian family took this trip to the extreme.In the clan, there is a whole set of methods for cultivating masters.The male of the Tian family started enlightenment at the age of four, and began to study the Four Books and Five Classics at the age of six, just to test himself as a scholar.

When the scholar got it, he began to transfer to the teacher's course.There are courses such as criminal name, name law, money and food, number and documents, accountant, Zhike, book enlightenment, etc. If you can master all of them and learn good skills, people will naturally come to ask for them.

When he took office, if he could invite a teacher from the Tian family to accompany him, he would be extremely at ease.

And this Tian Zifeng is the best teacher in the "Zi" generation of the Tian family.He was enlightened at the age of four, and passed the examination as a scholar the first time he finished.After that, it took five years to master the subject.Before leaving the teacher, someone stepped through the threshold and came to invite him.

The three local officials who had assisted successively were promoted to Beijing.

Five years ago, he suddenly disappeared, and it turned out that he had already entered Guan Jinghuan's residence.

He cupped his hands and bowed, and said: "My lord Guan tells me that the prince has traveled a long way, so I should try my best to assist you." It means that Guan Jinghuan has lent him to the prince for the time being, but Dong Weng is still Guan Jinghuan.

That being the case, he also represents Guan Jinghuan to a certain extent, and his status is detached, so he cannot be regarded as the same as ordinary staff.
