"Feng Youxi!"

Feng Youxi stood silently outside the door for a quarter of an hour. When he heard the prince calling him, he hurriedly entered the door.

"What are your orders, Your Highness?"

"Go to the warehouse and bring a box of gold and a box of silver."

Feng Youxi had many questions, but he didn't dare to ask. He called eight guards to bring gold and silver.

The prince weighed the cold silver and then the cold gold, and finally a warm smile appeared on his handsome and fair face.

The body that was hot due to the cold was somewhat neutralized by the cold temperature.

"These two boxes are under Segu's bed."

The love between children and the reproduction of children are really not suitable for him, but he is still suitable for making money.

Feng Youxi: "..."

Your Highness, we can keep money, but we really don’t have to be misers!

Alas, His Highness's heart was broken when he met a young lady with whom he had his first love.

——Actually, there is no hope for Miss Zhen to fall in love with Wei Yi. If Your Highness works hard, maybe he can win her love with a sword?

However, His Highness has been proud all his life, so how can he lower his head to do such a thing.

Or the two of them are not close enough.

Miss Zhen is not lucky enough to be a queen.

Little Yin felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. After sitting for a cup of tea, he stood up and left.

After getting on the carriage, she wiped away the cold sweat.

When I saw the Queen and the Imperial Concubine from the front, I wasn't so nervous either.

Fortunately, His Highness the Crown Prince was ill and could not afford to go to bed. Otherwise, when asked about Qing Yin, she would not be able to answer - ah! May the gods and Buddhas bless you, may your Royal Highness live in peace and health for a thousand years!

The imperial concubine was unaware of the atmosphere in the palace and sipped tea calmly. She only regretted that Zhen Qingyin did not come, otherwise her son would have jumped up with joy and personally came to meet the female family members of Zhen Shilang's family.

The queen and the nanny beside her looked at each other. Could it be that they had guessed wrong?

The queen shook her head.

The young lady of the Zhen family didn't come.

The prince did not send anyone to inquire.

If you don’t understand, let’s check it out during the Lantern Festival.

Mammy was murmuring in her heart. Previously, the empress had disliked this young lady from the Zhen family for being petty. Looking at it this way, it turned out that she had indeed gone too far in her duty to be honest.

Of course, she didn't know that the queen had completely changed her mind about Zhen Qingyin.

In the blink of an eye, it is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the capital is filled with a festive atmosphere, and the streets and alleys are preparing for the lantern viewing.

Early in the morning, the Zhen family gathered together and each had a bowl of dumplings mixed with glutinous rice balls.

Zhen Qingyun suffered several losses at the hands of Zhen Shilian and did not dare to cause trouble.

He held back his energy and decided to go to Wuqi Academy to study smoothly. In the future, he would take the imperial examination, win the first prize, become a high official, and one day crush his second uncle, Zhen Qingyin, and Zhen Yuanyuan under his feet.

——The old lady talked to her second uncle too much, and he was inexplicably sure that as long as he went to Wuqi Academy to study, he would definitely win the first prize and become a high official.

The old lady is still in low spirits after taking care of her for these days. Today, seeing her children and grandchildren gathered together, her depressed mood for several days has eased a little.

However, when his eyes glanced at the elegant-looking Zhen Qingyin, he couldn't help but give her a cold look.

Zhen Qingyin turned a blind eye and ate two black sesame glutinous rice balls and six dumplings. It was a good sign that good things would come in pairs, six or six, and eight or eight. After eating until she was full, she saw that the old lady with bad teeth was still eating slowly. Dumplings, she drank the soup slowly.

It wasn't until the old lady stopped her chopsticks that everyone put down their chopsticks together.

The family went to Nuange for tea.

The atmosphere is rarely harmonious.

Zhen Shijian asked Zhen Qingyun about the date of departure.

Zhen Qingyun looked at Zhen Shilian eagerly.

Because his tongue was injured that day, he was able to stay at home for a few days, and the day of departure has been postponed until now.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Zhen Shilian smiled and said: "You can set off at any time tomorrow. Qingyun, are your injuries healed?"

Zhen Qingyun had received guidance from Zhen Shijian, and knew that he still needed the help of his second uncle for his future. He suppressed his anxiety and nodded: "Okay, okay, second uncle, listen, my words will not be affected at all, and my eating will not be affected at all. It just looked scary that day..."

Zhen Shilian didn't care whether his injury was healed or in pain: "That's good. Let's set off tomorrow. It's better to arrive sooner rather than later. If you arrive earlier, you can study earlier and you can get ahead earlier."

Zhen Qingyun swallowed back the unfinished words. There was a little dissatisfaction on his face, but he didn't dare to reveal more. He curled his fingers tightly on his knees and shouted one at a time, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Uncle."

Zhen Qingyin picked up the tea cup and lowered her eyes calmly.

Zhen Qingyun is still cunning at heart, and after suffering some setbacks, he learned to hide himself.

However, after he had spoken out so many times, did he think there was any chance of turning his life around?

Zhen Shilian also talked about the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival in the evening. The emperor and the people had fun together. Officials of third rank or above in Beijing could bring their family members to participate in the lantern viewing feast.

"...Old lady, are you interested in going?"

Of course the old lady wants to go, it is decent, but her body does not allow it: "I have old arms and legs. If I go, it will cause trouble to the emperor and the empress, so I won't go. You go."

Zhen Shilian knew in his heart that Zhen Qingyin was just a little fox, so he didn't dare to show any clues, so he smiled slightly.

The little Yin family reported on the internal affairs of the house, and Aunt Rong nodded at the side. The old lady suppressed the urge to get angry, and nodded gently, with her little son in front of her, and her smile faded.

Is the second daughter-in-law deliberately going against her? She changed several old rules she had set for many years.

Next, we talked about Zhen Shijian's resignation.

As soon as the Lantern Festival is over, the officials' Spring Festival vacation is over, and they will start working in the morning and on duty tomorrow.

The year's plan begins in spring, and both Zhen Shilian and the old lady are determined to handle the major affairs of the house on this day.

Zhen Shijian still wanted to resign.

I started out as an eighth-grade petty official, but it was really boring to be a junior official. I also lost face in the Qin Tower and Chu Hall. How would I face my colleagues when I returned to duty?

The old lady was anxious and angry, so Zhen Shilian asked sharply: "Brother, what do you want to do after you resign?"

Zhen Shilian thought about it. At this age, apart from eating, drinking, having fun and visiting brothels, I and my second brother have been doing some reading in these years.

Although he calls himself a scholar, he is not a book lover. He does not want to continue dealing with books after resigning.

Thinking about it, he was speechless. He couldn't think of anything else to do besides eating and waiting to die.

Zhen Shilian had already made a plan and sent away the most noisy person in the family: "Brother, you are afraid of being embarrassed when you are an official in the capital. How about I go out of my way to find a job for you? As soon as I come, I will be promoted to Seventh grade, at least you are a first-rate official, and secondly, you are the head of a county, who dares to laugh at you? You can still be the master of the family and fulfill your ambitions. I know that my eldest brother has always been a person with great ambitions."

Zhen Shijian didn't have any ambitions. He had spent these years wandering around in Wenwen Township and among books. The only thing he could do was to take Aunt Zhang as his concubine and spoil her concubine and destroy his wife.

Zhen Shijian's blood boiled when he heard his younger brother's words, as if he had found a long-lost soulmate: "Shilian, if you still understand me, then I will go out and become a county parent official!"

He looked at the old lady nervously.

Back then, Aunt Zhang had encouraged him to go out and go out with him, so that she could not only experience the feeling of being a wife, but also make money, but the old lady didn't agree.
