"Speaking of it, the Xu family was also a big family."

Wang Shoufu had no reason to sigh.

Xu new year's eyelids jump, silent for a moment, said: "cloud state over there, how does the imperial court plan to solve?"

After emperor Yuanjing was killed, two files were classified and sealed in the cabinet's secret room.

One of them can only be consulted by officials with real power and Bachelor degree.

The content of the dossier is that Xu Pingfeng, the second disciple of tanhualang and JianZheng, colluded with the royal family five hundred years ago to establish a base in Yunzhou, secretly developed and attempted to rebel.

The case of the former Qi party colluding with the witchcraft to support the mountain bandits in Yunzhou, and the case of the private transportation of Yuzhou iron ore to Yunzhou caused by the selling of officials and titles by Emperor Jing of the Yuan Dynasty are mentioned again...

Nowadays, watchmen, censors and Dali temple are secretly investigating all Beijing officials to screen out potential spies.

Local officials have also been subject to secret investigations.

Another file records the truth that Yuanjing emperor, Zhenbei king and Zhende emperor were the same person.

This dossier is not public and few people know about it.

Prince, oh no, Emperor Yongxing plans to pass on this secret as a family secret.

"The imperial court has sent several imperial edicts to Yunzhou to ask the commander of Yunzhou to send Yang Chuannan back to Beijing to report his work, but no one has heard from him."

Wang Shoufu said in a deep voice:

"Yunzhou is not against, but it will happen sooner or later. The dark son of the watchmen in Yunzhou is still there, and there is no movement in the army and officialdom of Yunzhou for the time being. But the court has lost control of them.

"Your uncle has been operating in Yunzhou for many years, and the layout is far-reaching."

Xu new year frowned: "so the meaning of the court is to wait and see what happens?"

Wang Shoufu nodded: "Your Majesty plans to attack the imperial legacy 500 years ago next autumn. But before that, Yunzhou may take the first step, and the court is ready. "

Xu Xinnian understood: "therefore, the National Treasury has no surplus money for disaster relief."

Wang Shoufu was silent.

The spacious room was silent for a while.

Zhao Yurong, the second sister-in-law, cleared her throat and said in the tone of popular science education to her children:

"Miss, the charcoal in your house is different from that here. It's Royal animal gold charcoal, which can only be used in the imperial palace."

In fact, with today's Dafeng's corrupt style, there are a lot of black market activities to resell animal gold charcoal. There are more or less such charcoal in the homes of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, but they usually don't use it when they are entertaining guests.

It's all secret enjoyment.

Only those who are rewarded like this can be used in a dignified way.

Li Xianghan, the elder sister-in-law, twisted a piece of preserved fruit and put it in her mouth. Looking at Xu Lingyue diagonally opposite, she said with a smile:

"it's all a family. I'll ask my servant to pack two Jin of animal gold charcoal later. It's not rare."

The message of this sentence is: although it was awarded by the emperor, it was nothing to the Wang family.

Although there are some things in the fingers of the top rich, they are all things that ordinary people can't enjoy in their lifetime.

Mrs. Wang takes a cup of tea with a smile. She needs two daughters-in-law to "show off" the details of the Wang family, so as to set off her daughter's Golden branch.

Xu Lingyue said in a soft voice: "thank you, sister-in-law, but there are 60 Jin of animal gold charcoal at home. This winter, I think it's enough."

Her voice was soft and her expression was sincere. She didn't show off.

There was a violent silence in the house, and the wives of the Wang family looked strange. The snobbish sister-in-law asked in a low voice:

"bought it on the black market? Sixty Jin, how much silver does it cost?... "

Mrs. Wang coughed, stopped her daughter-in-law's inquiry with her eyes, and said faintly:

" Ling Yue, animal gold charcoal is for the Royal use, although many big families buy it secretly. But this kind of thing can only be done without saying. If it comes out, the palace will be guilty. Later, don't say it outside. Do you understand

Mrs. Wang's words are not euphemistic, but a serious warning.

The Xu family is too bold. Sixty Jin of animal gold charcoal is not a small amount. How can we buy it like this? Because the Xu family is a newly rich family, it will expand like this. In the future, I'm afraid it will be a bad relative..

the second sister-in-law's father works in Dali temple and is particularly sensitive to this aspect.

In the capital, such upstarts who are complacent after gaining power and are always on the move will not come to a good end.

Xu Lingyue shook her head and said innocently, "it's from Princess Huaiqing and Princess Lin'an."

? Mrs. Wang was obviously stunned, quickly recovered her calm and did not speak.

The elder sister-in-law was surprised and said, "what did the two princesses reward?"

She and her second sister-in-law are at a loss. As wealthy wives who live in the compound, they block the news from the outside world. They only know that the Xu family is very powerful, but the details are not clear.

For example, the Xu family's Dalang is a slave of three families. Two of them are the eldest daughter of Dafeng and the most beloved Lin'an.

Xu Lingyue explained: "the two princesses are looking at the big brother's face, so they have more care for the Xu family."Xu Dalang, ah......

I don't know if I think of Xu Dalang's legend, but the two sisters in law are much more polite and smile warmly.

Mrs. Wang face a Su, way: "listen to Si Mu say, Xu Yinluo is not in the capital?"

"Big brother has gone on a journey." Xu Lingyue replied.

In the following chat, the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law constantly "show off their wealth", always showing the superiority of the rich family, in order to highlight the prestige of the Wang family.

The elder sister-in-law said: "Erlang worked in the Imperial Academy. Although he was a top class noble, he didn't have much real power. When we get married, we will try to send them out after the Spring Festival. "

Xu Lingyue said: "before big brother left, he had already arranged for the second brother."

Second sister-in-law said: "Erlang was born in Yunlu academy, and he is very talented. It's just that the officialdom is proficient in human feelings, and human feelings are piled up by silver. But it doesn't matter. My father-in-law must have arranged these things. "

Xu Lingyue said: "there are also chicken essence workshops left by big brother in your family. 10% of the profits are paid out, and the annual income is 10000 Liang."

My sister-in-law said, "my sister is still unmarried. My sister-in-law will introduce you to some of the most talented young Junyan in your family."

Xu Lingyue said, "thank you, sister-in-law. It's enough to have half the ability of elder brother."

Sister in law "..."

after a battle, sister in law and sister in law were defeated.

They suddenly found that the Wang family did not seem to have much advantage over the Xu family in many aspects, such as wealth, contacts and family prominence?

The sense of superiority suddenly disappeared.

Stupid... Wang simu shook his head secretly.

The two sisters in law are rhythmic by Xu Lingyue. When they show a sense of superiority, Xu Lingyue moves out of Xu Qian, which is clearly the overall strength comparison between the Wang family and the Xu family.

Just by the appearance of human and animal harmless Xu Lingyue into the Wang family and Xu Qi'an contrast.

Can you compare?

But the two sisters in law were confused by Xu Lingyue's appearance. They thought that the overall situation was in their hands, and there was no problem. One after another, they stopped because the Wang family was really inferior to the Xu family.

At this time, the laughter like a silver bell came from outside the house.

After a while, a couple of children ran in, a boy and a girl.

Boy tiger head tiger brain, wearing a royal jacket, wearing fox fur hat, skin slightly dark, about 10 years old.

The girl is pink and lovely, round face, big eyes, a look is beauty embryo, about seven years old.

"Grandmother!"

The two children restrained their smiles and said respectfully.

"It's Hugo and butterfly."

With a smile on her face, Mrs. Wang called a couple of children to her side.

Wang simu took the opportunity to introduce: "this is my eldest brother's children."

Xu Lingyue nodded.

The two children sat down beside Mrs. Wang, and the girl looked at the fat children of the same age.

The boy is also looking at the strange little girl.

My sister-in-law's eyes brightened, "Oh," and said, "Hao'er, Dier, say hello to my sister."

The two children immediately said hello to Xu Lingyin.

Xu Lingyin concentrated on eating cakes, dried fruits and preserves, immersed in his own world.

The two sisters in law shook their heads secretly.

Mrs. Wang had a smile on her face.

The elder sister-in-law asked with a smile, "I haven't asked yet. Has Miss Lingyin enlightened me?"

Xu Lingyue shook her head and said in a soft voice, "not yet. The ring tone is stupid. She can't recite the Three Character Classic. It's useless to send it to school."

The smile on her sister-in-law's face became more and more obvious:

"that's not good. Although we women don't need to test for fame, we are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I think we can send Ling Yin to our Wang's private school. "

Mrs. Wang nodded and said, "there are still two days in a month to go to the palace to study with the prince and listen to Taifu's instruction."

"Cough..."

Wang simu choked on the tea, and his cough tears came out.

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Wang looks at her daughter.

"Mr. Zhang and Taifu at home are old..." Wang simu said softly.

So, mother, let them go.

"Good!"

Xu Lingyue said with a sweet smile, "thank you, Mrs. Wang."

After a pause, Xu Lingyue said, "actually, Lingyin has been practicing martial arts recently, so she has wasted her lessons. I also think she should read more and read more."

"Practicing martial arts?"

A room of women showed "this is very vulgar" expression, Wufu is already vulgar, women learn martial arts, vulgarity in vulgarity.

As soon as his dark eyes brightened, Wang Hao stood up, stared at Xu Lingyin and said:

"do you practice martial arts, too? Let's do it. "

The boy's proposal was immediately rejected by his mother. His sister-in-law scolded him: "don't talk nonsense. You are a good seedling. Miss Lingyin is different from you. You are bullying her."He turned to Xu Lingyue and said, "Hao'er has a good bone. Keqing praised him as a good seedling, so he accepted him as a disciple. My father-in-law also said that it's a good thing that practicing martial arts can improve one's health. In the future, Hao'er will be both literate and martial arts. "

The tone was rather proud.

Xu Lingyue lowered her head: "my sister has only one strength."

It's a look of inferiority.

Wang Haoping couldn't find a rival of the same age. He finally saw one and said angrily:

"grandmother, I have a sense of propriety. Let me compete with her. If you are afraid that I will hurt her, you can ask the bodyguard to take care of her."

Mrs. Wang still felt that it was not appropriate, just to refuse, but listen to Xu Lingyue said: "OK."

Huh? Mrs. Wang looked at her one eye, had to say: "also become."

Immediately let the servant girl call for a bodyguard.

Wang Hao and Xu Lingyin went out of the house and came to the yard.

Xu Lingyue, Wang simu, two sisters-in-law and Mrs. Wang, wearing a cloak, stood under the eaves.

The middle-aged bodyguard pressed the knife with one hand, examined the two children and said, "before the competition, I'll see your strength first."

Said, pointing to the side of the stone stool: "move the stool."

For a child, there is no such thing as a sword without eyes. But to be on the safe side, try your strength first.

If the difference is too great, there is no need to compete.

Wang Hao took the lead in embracing the stone bench and drinking at the table.

His little face was red, his forehead was blue, and he was exhausted after ten steps. In the process, Mrs. Wang kept shouting: "slow down, slow down..."

the second sister-in-law praised: "Hao'er has good skills."

The elder sister-in-law was smiling and said, "in fact, it's better to study. Alas, I didn't want him to practice martial arts, but Hao'er's bone is too good."

My sister-in-law knows Versailles without a teacher.

The middle-aged bodyguard praised: "young master, there is a bright future in the future."

He then looked at Xu Lingyin: "don't force it."

Xu Lingyin finally finished eating a handful of preserves in his hand, licked the palm of his hand, and walked to the stone table in the eyes of the people.

She reached for the edge of the stone table.

The middle-aged bodyguard just wanted to say "it's not this". Suddenly his eyes were wide open. He saw that the stone table was like a feather without weight. He was caught by the little girl with one hand and raised it to the top of his head.

Raised to the top of the head....

one handed....

the scene suddenly died.

The elder sister-in-law opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth slightly, and her whole body was stiff. It seemed that she had suffered an unbearable impact.

Mrs. Wang was moved.

The young Wang family was confused.

Bang!

Xu Lingyin threw the stone table back to its original position and looked at her sister: "can we fight?"

I have to go back to eat after playing.

"No!"

"No more

Mrs. Wang and her sister-in-law screamed at the same time.

At this time, Xu Lingyue was still as harmless as that little Jasper. She said with low self-esteem: "the ring tone can't do anything, just has a strength, and the elder brother also thinks that she is not qualified."

The elder sister-in-law looked at her, her lips moved and she couldn't speak.

Mrs. Wang and her second sister-in-law are silent.

...

after having lunch with Wang Shoufu, Xu went to the backyard and saw two younger sisters waiting at the entrance of the inner hall.

He didn't enter the inner hall. He stood in the distance and nodded slightly. When his sisters came with their servants, they left the palace.

After entering the carriage, the wheels rattle. Xu Xinnian looks at his sister and says, "how do you feel?"

Xu Lingyue said with a smile, "it's not bad. Sister simu listens to the rules."

Rules? Xu new year looked at her blankly.

Xu Lingyue smiles.

She still has some regrets. It would be more interesting if Wang simu came down.

After Xu left for the new year, Wang Shoufu drank a cup of tea alone and went to the inner hall.

The atmosphere here is dignified. The first wife, Mrs. Wang, two daughters in law, and her daughter, Wang simu, sit in silence.

The daughter is not bad. The first wife, Mrs. Wang, has a dignified face, while the two daughters-in-law can hardly hide their depression and loss.

Wang Shoufu light way: "make not happy?"

The two daughters in law did not speak.

Mrs. Wang hesitated for a moment and said, "master, I just think it's not high for the Xu family to marry us."

Sister in law nodded: "yes, yes."

She wants to send Hao'er to Xu's residence to practice martial arts.

The second sister-in-law said with emotion, "it's a right match for Sima to marry Erlang."In the future, we should pay more attention to the Xu family. She quietly put away her sense of superiority.

Wang simu suddenly said: "father, sister-in-law promised Miss Xu to come to your house to study."

Wang Shoufu asked: "what's the problem?"

There is no need to discuss such a small matter with him.

Wang simu said: "if you go back on what you promised to go out, let elder brother go to Xu's house and say it by himself. I don't want to be the villain. "

Wang Shoufu waved his hand: "it's just a small matter."

At this time, Wang Shoufu didn't realize the seriousness of the matter..... He was even more surprised that the female family members of the family suddenly looked depressed after losing the battle.

...

when returning to Xu's residence, Xu Lingyin puts her hands on both sides of her back waist, unfolds, bends down and charges to find master Lina and share her delicious food in the palace.

Xu Lingyue went to the East chamber and reported to her mother.

When she saw her daughter coming back, she immediately asked, "have you been bullied? Does the palace look down on people? Have you been wronged? "

Xu Lingyue shook her head: "no, madam Wang and her two sisters in law are very polite."

Aunt don't believe, poke the forehead of daughter: "you this wench, even if be bullied also can die endure."

Then he asked his daughter to sit down at the table and said: "tell me what happened to the Wang family. My mother will give you an analysis of what's not done well and how to deal with it.

"As for you, just remember that when you get married, you can deal with your mother-in-law with what your mother taught you."

Xu Lingyue nodded cleverly: "that Niang used to treat her grandmother like this."

Auntie, forget you? Your grandmother died before I married your father

Xu Lingyue sighed: "Niang, your life is very good."

...

Chaifu, Xiangzhou.

Eight feet tall, wearing a red and yellow cassock, Dunan King Kong came to the middle gate.

"Please inform me, poor monk, it's hard to get through."

The burly monk put his hands together.

At this time, Du Nan King Kong has restrained all the breath. Except for his iron tower like body, he is no different from ordinary people, and the fire ring behind his head is also convergent.

The porter took a frightened look at the big man and said in a trembling voice: "big, master, wait a moment..."
