  Chapter 772 E-character scroll big pit (Second more ask for a monthly pass!)

  Shen Yixiu was keenly aware of the change in her husband's mood.

  The husband went to Jia's mansion, it is said that he went to see the garden built by Jia's mansion for the imperial concubine's relatives, and he was not in a good mood when he came back.

Now the newly promoted concubines in the capital city have received the emperor's special favor to go home to visit their relatives this year, so for this relatives, they have built a large-scale family-saving villa with full power and piled up gold and jade. Concubine Jia, Concubine Zheng, and Concubine Zhou It's all about you chasing after me, not to be outdone.

The Ningrong Second Mansion is a family of martial arts, so naturally it cannot be left behind. Even Shen Yixiu, a woman who is not so sensitive to the outside world, has already heard of such things. A lot of fun.

  Feng Ziying was in a bad mood, which naturally affected the mood of the whole family. Even at dinner, the atmosphere seemed much duller.

  The Feng family's rule is to eat together, and Duan's family also noticed that Feng Ziying's face was gloomy all the time, and pointed to Shen Yixiu with his eyes.

   Eryou even sat down and dared not speak.

   A meal is extremely dull.

Feng Ziying didn't realize this, and his mind was always on Qin Keqing. How to deal with the troubles this woman might bring to him, he was really at a loss. If it was as Wang Wenyan said, just wait and see , he was a little unwilling.

  Intuition tells him that the eight years of Wing Long may not be a smooth year for him, and he may even face a lot of troubles. Feng Ziying is now investigating where the troubles come from.

  But there is no doubt that Qin Keqing is definitely one of them.

  Even if Qin Keqing is really the illegitimate daughter of Prince Yizhong, Feng Ziying doesn't care. The key is that Feng Ziying doesn't know what this woman wants, so why does she just bite herself?

Thinking of Prince Yizhong's increasingly explicit actions, the emperor who has been silent all the time, the concubine and King Beijing who are constantly making small moves, and the emperor who has been holding back and the vacillating warriors, Feng Ziying couldn't help it. Stay tight.

   One trigger can affect the whole body. This kind of thing may be a fuse that will cause unpredictable changes. Even if you do more preparations, sometimes you can't book the emergence of a small variable.

   It was not until eating a bowl of rice that Feng Ziying realized how much pressure her silence had brought to the entire dinner table.

The worried eyes of mother and aunt, the apprehensive expressions of his wife and concubine, and the cautious behavior of the maids around him all made Feng Ziying realize that she was already the backbone of the big family when her father was away. Every act of anger and joy will bring a huge psychological burden to the family members.

   "I'm sorry, mother, aunt, I just thought about something, and now I have figured it out, please don't worry, it's okay,..."

  Accompanied by Feng Ziying's words, the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly became lively.

"Brother Keng, is there something wrong with your business?" Da Duan also experienced many situations in Datong where her husband was upset or even nervous about his business. Unexpectedly, after her husband left, her son came again, and he is still up and down now. Looking at the expressions of the daughter-in-law and son's concubine next to her son, she was both proud and worried.

"Well, it doesn't count, it counts for public and private purposes." Feng Ziying smiled and said: "It's not a big problem, I just think about how to deal with it more perfectly. Don't worry, mother, my son can handle it. Trouble, my son will naturally go to ask a few masters for help."

Da Duan is relieved, her son is different from her husband, the husband is a military commander who is in charge of his own affairs, and many things need to be decided by himself, while the son is only a civil servant now, and his quality is not high. Go to Qi, Qiao, Guan and other important officials in the court to ask for advice. Based on their experience, it is naturally not a problem.

"Brother Keng, you are still young, so don't think about carrying everything by yourself. When your father was young, he followed your second uncle to hone his experience, and then gradually he was able to pick up a lot of burdens. You are only ten years old. He is less than eight years old, and there is still a long time to come, so there is no need to worry about many things, haven't you heard that the name written by Xiao Feng Xiu in the capital city is famous far and wide?"

Da Duan's words are full of pride and satisfaction. She is most proud of her son now, and her husband is second. Otherwise, she would not let Su Xie and her husband go to Liaodong with great generosity. If it was in the past, it would be If you don't go by yourself, your sister will definitely go with you, and you will never let Su Xie and the others monopolize you.

   But now, Da Duan doesn't care anymore, even if Su Xie and her husband can go with their husband and give birth to a boy and a half girl, so what?

  It is said that the son is a Wenqu star from the sky, so he has such ability. The second daughter of Su Xie gave birth to a son. How can he be as good as Ziying? This is not to say that a concubine is a concubine.

"My son understands." Feng Ziying quickly responded, he did not expect that his contemplation would attract the concern and worry of the whole family, which also made him realize that his joy, anger, sorrow and joy have at least affected so many people in the family. people's hearts.

   Returning to her side after dinner, Feng Ziying sat down on the kang in the wing room next to the flower hall.

This has actually been transformed into a living room, um, it is used by the whole family to sit and chat, especially in winter, when the outside is snowing heavily, the inside is as warm as spring, and even the outer robe has to be taken off, So as not to get sweaty.

   "Sir, did you encounter something unsatisfactory when you went to Jia's mansion?" Shen Yixiu asked casually.

  Feng Ziying noticed that everyone in the room was looking at her. It seemed that her trip to the Jia Mansion Grand View Garden had attracted a lot of attention, and her mood changes added to their uneasiness.

"The Grand View Garden is indeed very beautiful and gorgeous, and it must satisfy the imperial concubine. However, the financial resources of the imperial court are extremely tight. In order to raise the military expenses of Liaodong, Sanbian and Denglai, they are trying their best to raise the money needed by Hegong. , but do you know how much money was spent on the garden of Jia’s mansion?” Feng Ziying smiled lightly, “400,000 taels of silver! It’s even more than that.”

  Feng Ziying's words left everyone present dumbfounded and unable to believe it.

Although we all know that the courtyard under construction in Jia's mansion is extraordinarily luxurious, but we all think that it is for the concubine to visit relatives, and everyone takes it for granted, but since everyone guesses that this garden is only used for visiting relatives, it is probably only once every three to five years. Even if it is luxurious, it is only one hundred and eighty thousand taels of silver, and it is quite extravagant if it is at most one hundred thousand taels of silver. Unexpectedly, it is four hundred thousand taels, which is far beyond everyone's imagination.

"Perhaps you may not have an idea of ​​the four hundred thousand taels of silver, but let me tell you something. The Ningxia rebellion was suppressed the year before last, and the imperial treasury had no money. Eight hundred thousand taels was spent on the Western Expedition to quell the rebellion, which is just two gardens in Jia's mansion, what do you think?"

  Feng Ziying's words didn't have much emotion, but the two servant girls, Qingwen and Yunshang, who were waiting on the side were all shocked.

  It is so difficult for the emperor to get 800,000 taels of silver, so how can the Jia family spend 400,000 taels of silver to repair the garden? Just because the imperial concubine is coming back to stay for two nights?

  But isn’t the honor of the imperial concubine also given by the emperor?

  How does this feel like a bit of an inversion.

   "Then why didn't you persuade the masters over there?" After all, they came out of the Rongguo Mansion. Although Qingwen didn't realize the deeper meaning hidden behind it, she knew it was wrong and couldn't help saying.

Glancing at this girl, Feng Ziying said calmly: "Jia's mansion also has their difficulties. They are all under construction. If you don't build it, or if it is shabby, you will think that it is deliberately trying to sweep the emperor's face and Wu Xun's face. Sometimes it seems difficult to ride a tiger, but if you can calm down and think about it, you may not be able to figure out a reason, but this is not what I and other outsiders can say. I am very curious about people like imperial concubines who have experienced in the palace , why can’t you realize this truth?”

"Master, I'm afraid that the imperial concubine should be able to achieve it, but she may not be able to achieve it." Shen Yixiu thought for a while, "I heard that the other concubines who conferred the title together were from ordinary small families. They can build resplendent mansions and win the hearts of the people, but for the Jia family, one of the four great families of Jinling, they are extremely shabby, what will the outsiders think? For them, I am afraid that the emperor’s It's hard to judge opinions, but after all, you can rely on the face of the imperial concubine to cover up one or two. If everyone's martial arts who are on par with each other look down on you, and even those poor families can surpass you, then that is the best. unbearable."

I have to say that what Shen Yixiu said is also very reasonable. The emperor's preferences and attitudes are hard to determine. If it is built, it can be said to add luster to the royal family, or it can be said to be extravagant. Losing face of the Tian family is purely the emperor's own attitude.

But if people like the Wuxun class don’t recognize it, and think that you can’t even build a garden for noble concubines to visit relatives in Ningrong Second Mansion, they might think that you are really bad, and once you lose this reputation and impression, it’s worse than The lack of money is even worse. As for the contempt of the poor and small families, it is even more deadly. Once the news spreads, it will be difficult for the Rongning Second Mansion to gain a foothold in the capital city.

  Thinking of this, Feng Ziying can also understand the difficulties of the Jia family.

   Just like those private bosses in the previous life, even if you have no money, you must buy a Mercedes-Benz Audi, otherwise how would you go about business with others?

  Similar to the past and the present, if the Ningrong Second Mansion was stripped of its gold mask, it would be difficult for them to move forward in the capital city, so even if they borrowed money, they would have to carry it over.

   It's just that they didn't think that after carrying it over, it might not be Jun En, but it might be a big pit.

   Goal 1000, brothers give me strength!
