Before returning to Hanzhou, Chen Ze had already told him that he would definitely have to settle some matters when he returned. He had already asked the perfume and soap workshops in Hezhou to send a batch of goods to Qingzhou in advance. The time should be about the same now. The goods have arrived. Let Li Yuankang go pick them up and give them to the women in the palace.
Soon after, Li Yuankang came back with two large boxes of perfume and soap.
After Chen Ze asked Chunping to take inventory, he first went to greet Sun.
In fact, Chen Ze didn't know much about this side wife, mainly because she didn't have much communication with the original owner. However, from the conversations among her family members, it seemed that this Sun was a pretty good woman and rarely spoke to her. Most of the time when the servants engage in beatings and scoldings, they are in a very dignified state, so she is known as a good mistress among the servants, and she can be considered relatively harmonious with her several concubines on weekdays.
The most important thing is that he is a good wife. I heard that when the palace encounters many major issues, Chen Wuping will choose to discuss it with Sun.
From this point of view, although Chen Wuping is not a good person and is not very good at educating children, he still has a good eye for finding women.
After meeting Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Sun had already prepared fruit tea. After meeting Chen Ze, she hurriedly asked Chen Ze to sit down, very eagerly.
However, Chen Ze did not sit down. Instead, he solemnly bowed his hands and said, "Mom, I heard that you like Ningyuxuan's perfume and soap. Hou Zhao specially asked someone to send you some."
"Huzhao was not sensible before, but I have figured out a lot of things since I got seriously ill. I know that you are in charge of the internal affairs of the entire palace, and it is not easy to keep the palace in order. You are also very concerned about me and Qing Ling." You have never taken my disrespect towards you into your heart. Many times you would even say good things about me in front of my father. Only now does Houzhao know that you love my brother and sister as much as your biological mother."
"Thank you, Mom, for your continued care. From now on, Houzhao will treat you as my biological mother."
After these few words, Mrs. Sun almost cried. Her eyes turned red and her voice choked with sobs: "Okay, okay."
Chen Ze is very sincere in his attitude. Of course, he doesn't actually have much emotion, he just did what the original owner should do.
It has been almost six years since Mrs. Sun entered the palace. She is quite good to the original owner. Every time she goes back to her parents' home, she will bring a lot of good things to the original owner. She usually cares about the original owner very much, although she is not the kind she usually does in ordinary people's homes. She asked for help, but in the situation of the palace, she could always consider the feelings of the other party. It can be seen that Sun still tried very hard to play the role of a good mother, and wanted to replace the biological mother to give these two children some maternal love. As a result, even Chen Qingling I already recognized my baby mama, but the original owner didn't appreciate it. In six years, the original owner never called me "baby mama".
Why bother?
You have to make enemies to be happy, right?
"Mom, don't cry. It's Hou Zhao who should be ashamed!" Chen Ze hurriedly comforted him: "If Hou Zhao had been sensible earlier, you shouldn't have suffered so much grievance."
Mrs. Sun then wiped her tears and tried to control her emotions: "I'm so happy, I'm crying with joy!"
Chen Ze quickly waved and signaled Chunping to quickly put the perfume soap on the table. Then Chen Ze hurriedly said: "Mom, these perfume soaps all have the smell you like. I asked specifically about them, so I'm afraid I won't buy them for you. Don’t like the taste.”
Mrs. Sun hurriedly responded: "Okay, Hou Zhao, you are thoughtful. No matter what you give me, my little mother will be happy."
Chen Ze smiled: "It's good that my little mom is happy. By the way, when the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, my little mom is willing to go to Qingzhou for some fun. I have already told my father that I plan to take my sister there with me, and my little mom doesn't either. You have been to Qingzhou several times, how about going with us?"
"No, there are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with in the house! If I go, there will be no one to do these things. You can take Qingling to have a good time, she just wants to go out all the time!"
"Then next time, if there is nothing else going on in the palace, I can go to Qingzhou at any time when I have free time."
"well."
After giving gifts to Mrs. Sun, Chen Ze also gave perfumes and soaps to the remaining concubines.
But they certainly cannot be treated equally, because the palace is inherently hierarchical, and concubines and concubines are not the same thing.
It can definitely be given as a gift, but the packaging must be divided into several grades. Like other female relatives, Chen Ze all sends them in the form of small sachets, so everything has been taken into consideration.
Isn’t it strange that there are so many people?
After sending off the royal family members, things are far from over. The next step is to send greetings to the female family members of some royal family members. They also need to be sent, and each household must visit in person.
As for who among these elders is participating in the power struggle, Chen Ze will not think too much about it, because under the current situation, as a junior, he can only do the things of the juniors, and the conflicts of the older generation are those of the older generation. His own affairs, he took this opportunity to express his intention not to get involved.
Of course, Chen Ze received warm hospitality when he went to Cao's house. Cao Sheng was not at home now, and Cao Xiong was on duty at Qingzhou Camp. The person who received Chen Ze was Cao Yuan, the second son of the Cao family, who specially thanked Chen Ze before The capture of the traitor saved the Cao family's face, and they specially invited Chen Ze to stay at the Cao family for a dinner before leaving.
It was definitely not easy for Chen Ze to refuse this kind of thing, so he stayed at Cao's house that night. There was naturally a song and dance performance during the meal. After all, the families of the rich and powerful must have geishas and singers, and Cao Yuan also made a special statement during the meal. If Chen Ze is interested, he can stay overnight at Cao's house. If he likes any geisha and singer, he can naturally accompany him that night.
Chen Ze did not refuse directly.
Because it is very common for powerful people to deal with each other. There is no need to refuse, because you don’t have to choose.
Anyway, let Li Yuankang find an excuse to say that the palace had something to do and needed to go back, and then left the Cao family directly.
When he left the door, Chen Ze was still a little dizzy.
The Cao family are all soldiers, and Cao Yuan is also the kind of thief who can drink.
Moreover, the drinker was the drunken beauty of the Zhao family, and the stamina of this wine was no joke.
When he woke up the next day, he was in a daze. Chen Ze couldn't remember how much he drank. Li Yuankang hurriedly called Chen Ze: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"Rebellion!"
