After Queen Xiaolu's birthday banquet, Yu Zizhen met with the head of the Wen family and Wen Xiaoman at Zhenbei Palace.
Yes, the solution Jiang Yunshan came up with was that he directly contact the head of the Wen family, so that there would be no problem that people would suspect him of bad intentions if he went to the nunnery.
As for Wen Xiaoman, Jiang Yunshan asked his mother and sister to go there for him.
Although the Jiang family is not a wealthy family, they used to have a small amount of assets. In addition, there are always people in their family studying, and his mother and sister are not like ordinary peasant women who can't help but see the jeweled female family members. Stage fright.
After intimidating Jianchang Bo Mansion, he reached an agreement of cooperation with the head of the Wen family, and asked his mother and sister to express to Wen Xiaoman how much his family's eldest son cherished his talents. Jiang Yunshan then brought the head of the Wen family and Wen Xiaoman to see him. Yu Zizhen.
The head of the Wen family never expected that he would be able to climb into a real noble family like Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. Although they asked someone to find Aunt Rongxuan who was next to Xiao Yuanjin, to be honest, with Xiao Yuanjin's invisible sense of presence, Wen In fact, we didn't really expect Aunt Rongxuan to play a key role in this matter for their family.
But now, the development of the situation has proved to him that their original decision of entrusting someone to send a message to Aunt Rong Xuan with the mentality of "what if, what if it works" was correct.
The eldest prince, whom everyone regarded as useless, not only helped the Wen family solve a big problem so quickly, but also helped them gain access to such a powerful force as Zhenbei Prince's Palace.
With the protection of Zhenbei Palace, not only Jian Changbo Palace, but also at least 80% of the nobles and officials in the Qi Dynasty would not dare to trouble the Wen family again in the future.
Of course, the protection from the Zhenbei Palace is not entirely a good thing. With the delicate relationship between the Zhenbei Palace and the Lu family, it is possible that the two families will fight one day, and the Wen family will definitely be targeted at that time. of.
However, the head of the Wen family feels that this risk is worth taking. After all, with the current situation in Daqi, chaos will only happen sooner or later.
Rather than becoming the treasury or granary of bandits or some generals in troubled times, it would be better for the Wen family to choose a thigh to hold on to.
At least he chose someone with a respectable reputation, so he wouldn't use the Wen family as a money bag while also raising a butcher's knife against them.
Even if we have to tear down the grinding mill and kill people, ahem, even if we have to burn bridges across rivers, we have to wait until everything is settled, right?
Thinking like this, the head of the Wen family worked hard and was determined to perform well in front of Prince Zhenbei.
However, what he didn't expect was that Prince Zhenbei, who was praised as a flower by Jiang Yunshan, was actually a child who looked only seven or eight years old!
Although wealthy families always teach their children and grandchildren carefully and start very early, children as young as seven or eight years old...
The head of the Wen family had these thoughts in his mind, but his face was respectful and not disrespectful at all.
He also donated an official position to himself, so he did not have to kneel down in front of Yu Zizhen, but in order to show respect, when he bowed his hands, his waist was almost bent at a right angle.
"Thank you for your help, Your Majesty. I am deeply grateful."
Wen Xiaoman, who originally just performed a standard blessing ceremony, saw this and hurriedly bent his knees again.
Thinking about it, something didn't seem right, so she hurriedly tried to change from squatting to kneeling.
Yu Zizhen hurriedly waved to the two of them, "No courtesy, no courtesy at all. Sit down."
The head of the Wen family thanked Yu Zizhen and took his granddaughter to sit down where Yu Zizhen started.
Wen Xiaoman secretly looked at Yu Zizhen curiously. She knew that this was the Prince of Zhenbei who helped the Wen family frighten the group of shameless people in Jianchang Bo Mansion, and also wanted to use her as a woman to do things.
Apart from her grandfather and father, this was the first person who wanted her to help.
Because of this, even if Yu Zizhen is just a child, Wen Xiaoman will not look at Yu Zizhen based on the inherent prejudice of the world, thinking that Yu Zizhen will definitely not be able to do anything at such a young age.
You know, many people, including her mother, often use "you are a girl" as an excuse.
Yu Zizhen noticed her gaze and nodded towards her with a smile.
"Although Jianchang Bo's Mansion no longer dares to blatantly entangle the Wen family, this is only on the surface. As the saying goes, money moves people's hearts. For the sake of money, they may not honestly stop going out because of Zhenbei Prince's Mansion's intervention. What a moth."
The head of the Wen family slightly cupped his hands, "That's what the prince said. People's hearts are unpredictable, and if we can't protect them, they will even become more and more determined to win Xiaoman because our Wen family is involved with the Zhenbei Palace."
After all, the Wen family originally provided only money to build the Changbo Mansion, but now they have climbed up to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
Since Jianchang Bo's Mansion was not secure, they thought that they could also climb to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion through the Wen family.
With the thick thighs of Zhenbei Palace, it would be too easy for Jianchang Bo and Jianchang Bo Crown Prince to find practical positions in the court.
Wealth and silk attract people's hearts, and official position and power are even more attractive.
The masters of the Wen family are mature and sophisticated. Of course, they will not naively think that with the big tree of Zhenbei Prince's Mansion as their backer, Jianchang Bo's Mansion will definitely give up all their plots against the Wen family.
Yu Zizhen was not surprised that he was awake, but she still reminded the head of the Wen family, "It may not be Miss Wen. If Miss Wen doesn't have a chance, there is no guarantee that they will not change their target to another girl from the Wen family."
The head of the Wen family was startled, and was immediately frightened by the scene he imagined, so that anger rushed to his forehead.
He has two granddaughters in total. The second granddaughter Wen Xiaofei is not a smart and capable strong woman like the eldest granddaughter Wen Xiaoman.
Wen Xiaofei is a typical charming young lady of this era. She doesn't like business and is average in everything she studies. She usually lives a pampered life at home. When she goes out, she either gathers with her little sisters or accompanies her mother to worship Buddha.
In the impression of the head of the Wen family, his little granddaughter is a real person made of water. She is delicate and soft, and can only cry when she is wronged. If she is bullied, will she not be able to let it go?
When he thought of this possibility, the head of the Wen family couldn't sit still.
Seeing that he was interested, Yu Zizhen simply gave him another good idea, "Head of the Wen family, it is better to hire more reliable people to look after the home and the courtyard, especially female guards with good skills. It is best to have one around the female relatives at home."
Anyway, the Wen family has money, so that's not enough.
The head of the Wen family nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. I will follow your advice when I get back."
Yu Zizhen smiled and turned his gaze to Wen Xiaoman, "Mr. Jiang must have told Miss Wen that I would like to ask Miss Wen to work for me, right? I wonder if Miss Wen would like to join my army and work for me?"
