Jiang Song is protected by the identity of Xiucai, no one can do anything to him, it is nothing more than to let him go. For scholars, reputation is the most important thing, and this incident happened in the Mu family, and the Mu family would not spread it at all, so it did not have much adverse effect on Jiang Song.

Xu Hao didn't plan to do anything to Jiang Song, since Jiang Song left the Xu Family School, he hired a respected gentleman to teach the children in the village to read, which was enough.

He also stopped Zhu Gaoxu, who was eager to beat Jiang Song, and asked the guards of the Yanwang Mansion to send Zhu Gaochu back to the capital, he wondered where he was going to spend the night tonight, and Xu Hao went home.

Early in the morning of the second day, Xu Hao had breakfast with the old lady, Zhu Qiaoqiao gave him a look, and immediately said to the old lady that he wanted to discuss some family affairs with his brother, and the old lady smiled and said go, let's go, and the two of them came out together.

The more frank and unrestrained you are, the more no one says anything gossipy. Zhu Qiaoqiao understood this in her heart, and in front of more than a dozen maids, she ordered them to stay away.

When he entered the garden, Zhu Qiaoqiao said as he walked: "The dowry of the Wang family has been accepted by his wife into his house, and no one is even allowed to look at the list, just like a thief." I think it tastes weird, and it's not good to talk to the old lady and your mother. ”

Xu Hao said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, isn't she worried that your wife is greedy?" No, how can I say that it is my mother's family, maybe I am afraid of being spread by someone with a heart. ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao stepped into the cloister with his feet raised, walked slowly along the long corridor, holding a fan embroidered with bright peonies in one hand and a snow-white silk scarf in the other, shook his head and said: "Even if you want to keep it a secret, you can't hide it from the old lady and me?" It's not that I don't know. No, you have to talk to your ancestors about this, if something happens to the Wang family, and the wife takes the opportunity not to return her mother's money, then what has become of our family? How can I have the face to meet my relatives in the future? ”

Xu Hao smiled deliberately: "Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, so just don't know about it, and we can also follow the benefits." ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao looked at Xu Hao who was smiling, and made a gesture to slap it with a fan, and snorted coldly: "If you were such a person, I wouldn't have consulted with you." No matter how much gold and silver the Wang family has, I can't look down on it at all, but I'm afraid that my wife will be confused for a while, maybe she will do something with money, and when she returns it to others, there will be something missing, and our family's innocent reputation will be over. ”

Xu Hao agreed: "Sister-in-law is right, I will tell my ancestor after a while, I have understood all the things on the list, and it should be one of the people's things." By the way, I heard that the eldest brother invited you to eat and drink last night, and seeing that you are refreshed today, it seems that the eldest brother did not succeed. ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao said disdainfully: "He's drunk, like a dead pig." Want to get me drunk? Dream of his big head! I let Daxi sleep with him last night, and he thought it was me who was lying down, and the disgusting appearance was really disgusting at the time, so I won't tell you, I didn't stain you. Hum! Let the wife be proud for a while. ”

Xu Hao smiled and said: "It's not a matter if it goes on like this, you are husband and wife in the end." ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao said disapprerovingly: "Let's see, when he changes his mind, I'll let him come into the room." If I don't take care of him like this, I don't know how many women will be invited into the house in the future, and I can't let people scold me for being jealous and domineering, so I have to let him guard me willingly. ”

Xu Hao smiled, remembering Wang Ning's entrustment, and asked, "When does my sister-in-law plan to enter the palace to visit the saint and the concubines?" It just so happens that I have something to ask for. ”

"Say it." Zhu Qiaoqiao stopped on a stone arch bridge and looked down at the fish in the pond.

Xu Hao stopped, thought for a while and said, "Yesterday I went to Princess Lin'an of Jiangpu, and the princess had some difficulties, so I thought about reporting to the saint." However, the Holy Lord is entangled in state affairs, and there are very few opportunities to speak, and sometimes the Holy Lord is in a bad mood, and I dare not mention this matter for fear of causing trouble. Sister-in-law, you have to work hard, if you can't meet the saint directly, it's okay to tell a certain concubine. ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao knew what was going on when she heard it, it turned out that she had compared herself to a man since she was a child, from staying in the boudoir quietly and quietly, she liked to inquire about everything, and when she entered Beijing, she came and went with her relatives every day, so many things were clear.

As for Princess Lin'an's difficulties, Xu Hao didn't know what was going on, she understood after a little analysis, after all, they were both royals and women.

Zhu Qiaoqiao said lightly at the moment: "It's easy to send a letter." Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, I think it is easier to beg the emperor's grandson than to beg the emperor's grandfather. ”

Xu Hao suddenly said in surprise: "Sister-in-law guessed what is difficult?" The younger brother admired. ”

"You!" Zhu Qiaoqiao glanced at his brother, and said angrily: "In the future, you will not take this kind of thing on yourself, you will be resented for no reason, and there will be more enemies who are not clear." ”

Xu Hao was shocked and said, "How do you say this? I'm just helping each other, where will there be enemies? ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao frowned and thought for a moment, and then said leisurely: "The royal family is not harmonious, there are too many people who hate each other, and it is often just because of some small things in the early years, they want to put people to death with each other, and the battle between the common people is more than a hundred times more tragic than the struggle of the common people's family?" I don't want to talk to you in detail, I just say that between this princess and the princess, in the past, there were people who tore their faces in order to compete for favor, and after they got married, they each had a horse, and in order to compete for the weight of the emperor's grandfather, they secretly competed with each other and gradually became enemies of each other, and in order to find helpers, they formed gangs. Hum! Sisters of the same mother are hostile from now on, and unrelated people are intimate, and every day they are relatives, and tomorrow they will kill you. In short, you have to remember that the flesh and blood of the Heavenly Family have had no family affection since ancient times. ”

As she spoke, Zhu Qiaoqiao fell into her childhood memories. Her biological mother died early, and Princess Qin treated her generally, but for the sake of King Qin's attention to his eldest daughter, he was affectionate and loving to her on the surface. But for the people below to treat Zhu Qiaoqiao slowly for no reason, he always turned a blind eye and regarded him as not knowing.

Zhu Qiaoqiao was young at that time and lived alone by herself, the palace was so big, where was it easy to see her father, unless King Qin took the initiative to see her daughter, she had nothing valuable in her hands, and it was difficult to dredge the palace maids to report to the past.

The subordinates who served her didn't take her seriously, so you can imagine what kind of cold treatment a lonely little girl would have? Eating cold and cold meals, drinking cold tea, even the water used for grooming is ice, and even a charcoal fire in winter is inferior, smoky and burning, and coughing all night is commonplace.

In the end, she didn't threaten anyone, and with King Qin in town, no one dared to harm her, and she didn't die due to any accident.

Zhu Qiaoqiao's temperament was honed in such an environment, she was unwilling to be bullied, like a little tiger with her teeth and claws, so as to protect herself, no matter who she was, she dared to fight, so that the pungent reputation was outside, and the result reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears.

And Zhu Yuanzhang has always disliked women with a savage temperament, so Zhu Qiaoqiao's marriage is indifferent, in fact, he doesn't bother to worry about a concubine, and he can't worry about too many children and grandchildren.

King Qin is concerned about his daughter's lifelong events, but who wants to marry Zhu Qiaoqiao? It's easy to recruit people, and King Qin is unwilling. It just so happened that the old lady once told the Yan Wang couple that he wanted to marry the royal family, and Yan Wang Zhu Di took the opportunity to be a matchmaker, how to say that the Xu family and the mansion are one, Xu Wen is the eldest grandson here, and Zhu Di himself is the matchmaker, so King Qin naturally agreed.

Xu Hao didn't bother Zhu Qiaoqiao, who was reminiscing about the past, he was pondering the words he heard, these secrets were difficult to hear, even the Zhu Gaoxu brothers rarely took the initiative to mention the secrets in the royal family with him.

The princesses and the ponies also formed their own gangs and fought with each other, which is not surprising, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

In this way, Wang Ning and his wife Princess Huaiqing are on the side of the eldest princess of Lin'an, which can be called the eldest princess party. Xu Hao doesn't care who is on the other side, it doesn't matter who it is, he does things according to his conscience, if anyone wants to hate himself because of this, just come, whatever he does will offend people, if you want to blindly avoid protecting yourself, it's impossible, you can't stay at home forever, right?

is also now Xu Hao has the support of Yanwangfu, and he is full of confidence. Except for Zhu Yuanzhang, even the ministers of the court or the princess of the horse are not easy to deal with him. You must know that Zhu Di, like his father, is not good-tempered, and he is very vindictive, this is the advantage of hugging his thighs as soon as possible.

Xu Hao's eyes suddenly lit up, Zhu Di was able to let himself come forward, it can be seen that he has no grievances with Princess Lin'an, probably leaning towards Wang Ning's side, so he really has to do this matter, otherwise what would Zhu Di think of himself? Snakes and rats at both ends?

At this time, seeing Zhu Qiaoqiao sober up from the memories of the past, his eyes were still so deep. Xu Hao said: "Sister-in-law, what is the difficult thing about the princess?" You can say it so that I can have a good idea in my heart. ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao said expressionlessly: "What else can I do for it?" What does a widow value most? Guess for yourself. ”

"It turned out to be for the Li family's title." Xu Hao immediately understood that the widow cherished nothing more than her son, and what she cared about most was her son's happiness.

Xu Hao said at the moment: "I don't have to bother my sister-in-law about this matter, I will find a way to report to the saint myself." ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao was extremely surprised and said: "I said a lot before, did you listen to it?" It's just confused, aren't you afraid of offending the nobles because of this? ”

Xu Hao said casually: "It's because I'm afraid, so I have to do this even more, otherwise it will be really troublesome." ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao said angrily: "The Li family was ordered to be killed by the emperor's grandfather, and the door was destroyed, the Danshu iron coupon was destroyed, and the title was abolished. It's only been a few years? How can he return the title to the Li family after beating his mouth? Begging the imperial grandson to come forward, maybe the imperial grandfather will take the opportunity to step down, in my opinion, the imperial grandson will not dare to agree to help you, then you will not be able to do this matter at all, don't even think about it, it is useless to ask King Yan. ”

Xu Hao said with a smile: "I didn't say that I would achieve the title, I meant that I would personally report this matter to the Holy Lord, what does it matter to me if I don't succeed?" In short, the most courtiers can't hide the holy hearing for no reason, my move is above board, even if someone holds a grudge and has the protection of the saint, who dares to run against me? ”

After speaking, Xu Hao hurried away, Zhu Qiaoqiao was still standing alone on the bridge, and sighed at the fish in the pond for a long time: "Silly brother, if everyone takes the imperial grandfather seriously, wouldn't the world be peaceful forever?" ”
