Chapter 625 New-Golden Marriage

The great changes in the palace on the night of the full moon did not cause much sensation in the capital.

It seems to have been suppressed intentionally.

Even if someone spreads the news in the market, Jin Yiwei will arrest and imprison the person very quickly.

Coupled with the thunderous movements of the Dragon Guards and the Supervisor of Ceremonies, all kinds of unbelievable true and false news were added to add fuel to the flames, and the real news was quickly suppressed.

But those well-informed high-ranking officials and wealthy families naturally got the news quickly.

King Nan is the mastermind behind the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City. He wants Ling Li to replace Tao Zang and launch a coup to seize the door.

Wang An, the third person in the Si Li Jian, colluded with him and used various means to avoid the eyes and ears of the Royal Horse Supervisor and the Long Imperial Guard.

Even the imperial guards were deceived.

Fortunately, Uncle Yunyang of the Great Zhou Dynasty worked together with Chen Zhao, the censor of Jinmen Liusi, and Sun Shaozong, the prime minister of Shuntian Prefecture, and discovered the slightest clue, thus solving the case in one sentence and successfully rescued him.

It is said that since ancient times, there has been no greater achievement than rescuing a driver.

Chen Zhao and Sun Shaozong were the main contributors to this rescue.

Therefore, in the early dynasty, Emperor Xiaode decreed that Chen Zhao should be granted the title of Duke of Chengguo, the Commander-in-Chief of Jinyi Guards Left, the Admiral of Jinmen, and the Governor-General of Jinmen to open the port, and all officials in Jinmen, big and small, would be under his control.

Sun Shaozong was also granted the title of Yongchang Bo, the hereditary commander of the Jinyi Guards, and was promoted to the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture.

At the same time, the emperor issued an order to ban the Nanwang lineage, and the Nanwang clan was destroyed.

At the same time, he issued an edict to reprimand many powerful families.

The most severe one was to deprive Niu Niu, the grandson of Zhenguo Niu Qing, from his title of title. Niu's family was confiscated and his property was confiscated.

There was a sensation in both the government and the public for a while.

The government-controlled system with the Metropolitan Procuratorate as its core was reluctant to let Chen Zhaocai sit down for a few months before rising to a higher position.

Doesn't this slap them in the face?

However, Emperor Xiaode was so majestic and had just experienced a storm last night. Who dared to criticize the hero at this time?

So everyone held their noses and recognized it.

These things may seem very sensational, but compared to the scenes a few years ago when Prince Yitada was imprisoned, countless heroes rose up, and countless noble families were destroyed, I don't know how relaxed it is.

Therefore, it caused almost no disturbance in the capital.

Even Chen Zhao didn't bother to pay attention.

He stayed in the capital for a while, got together with old friends and had a drink. When he was about to return to Tianjin, he received a message.

Baoyu is engaged.

For the Jia family, whose elders are only thinking about having fun in their home, the ups and downs outside don't seem to affect them.

Especially for the two people in charge, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang.

As long as Jia Yuanchun is still a virtuous concubine, they will have nothing to worry about.

But Chen Zhao didn't expect that they would get Baoyu engaged so quickly.

The other girl is not a high-ranking official or aristocrat.

It turned out to be Xia Jingui from the famous imperial merchant Osmanthus Xia family.

It turns out that some time ago, Mrs. Wang took Baoyu to the Wang family in Dong'an County for a banquet, and met the Xia family's mother and daughter who came to the banquet.

So under the manipulation of a thoughtful person, after a series of "coincidences", Baoyu accepted a purse sent by Xia Jingui.

Coincidentally, all the female relatives of the princes and ministers saw it.

When it came to this point, Mrs. Wang just didn't want to accept it, and there was nothing she could do.

And after she inquired about the situation of Osmanthus Xia's family, she was very willing.

The Xia family is an imperial merchant family listed in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and is one of the largest families. The family is extremely wealthy. They are a big landowner and a wealthy man in the capital. Not to mention the rest of the land, there are only dozens of hectares of land to grow osmanthus. All these

All the osmanthus bureaus outside the city of Chang'an belong to the Xia family, and even the bonsais displayed in the palace are tributes from the Xia family, so they are known as the "Osmanthus Xia family".

The Osmanthus Xia family has a great reputation. In the city of Chang'an, everyone from the princes to the businessmen knows about it. When it comes to the name of the Osmanthus Xia family, both Ning and Rongfu also know it. The Xia family has a monopoly on the palace.

All bonsais are displayed in the palace, and the top imperial merchants manage all the osmanthus bureaus inside and outside Chang'an. Just like the weaving bureau that supplies fabrics to the palace, the osmanthus bureau is an imperial merchant yamen affiliated with Fengchenyuan of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and specializes in supplying fabrics to the palace.

There are three flower bonsai and weaving bureaus, and the Xia family manages all the osmanthus bureaus. All bonsai displays in the palace are monopolized by the Xia family. The Xia family is even more powerful than Jiangning Weaving.

Xia Jingui was born like a flower and a jade, she was a complete beauty, and she was quite literate. Her literary talent was very outstanding among women, both internally and externally.

What's even better is that the Xia family is not only a wealthy family with millions of dollars, but also has no sons. The heir is a grandson. All the family wealth will be given to the daughter as a dowry to the son-in-law's family and passed on to the grandson. Whoever marries

Arriving at Xia Jingui means getting the Xia family's millions of wealth and illustrious family fortune for free.

From this perspective, Xia Jingui's family background and appearance are very perfect and impeccable. At the time of the marriage, the Xia family had no sons, and all the family property belonged to the son-in-law and future grandson. With Xia Jingui bringing a million-dollar dowry,

She must marry into a higher-status family, and the Xia family is already one of the richest families in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Xia Jingui's personal conditions are also excellent, so the person who can marry Xia Jingui must be extremely powerful and prominent.

The ultimate wealthy and aristocratic home.

After inquiring about this situation, Mrs. Wang did not discuss it with Jia's mother at all, but just gave Jia Zheng a gust of wind when he returned to Beijing.

The Rongguo Mansion cannot make ends meet.

The stores and farms in Fuzhong are constantly losing money!

The title of nobility in the mansion is in the eldest room!

The Gongzhong government treasury is almost running out of money. If this continues, without huge capital injections, the Rongguo government will fail.

Without the signboard of Rongguo Mansion, what else can the second master of Rongguo Mansion do?

Although Jia Zheng had been working as a member of the Ministry of Industry for a long time, he was not a second-ranked Jinshi, so he had been ostracized for so many years.

But it costs money to find a foreign job.

The Jia family cannot make ends meet, so where can they find the money for him to run for office?

At this time, the Xia family's millions of assets dazzled his eyes.

So Mrs. Wang immediately sent a message to the palace, and soon asked the virtuous concubine to issue an edict to give Baoyu and Xia Jingui a marriage. There were even four words in the edict: "Golden Jade and Good Marriage".

So when Baochai and others heard about it from Wang Xifeng who was visiting the house, they couldn't help but be shocked: "Why are you suddenly saying that you are getting married just a few days ago?"

Wang Xifeng sneered: "In broad daylight, in full view of everyone, Baoyu and Miss Xia presented gifts to each other and took the handmade purses with their own hands. Even though the second wife was not prepared at all, she had to bite the bullet and agreed. But later

After asking about their situation, I was absolutely convinced."

She paused, took a sip of tea, and then said: "When I talked to Second Master Lian, we all thought that Second Master Lian must be opposed to such a noble character. Who would have thought that he has a millionaire fortune and is owned by

He was absolutely convinced that his grandson would succeed him. He even felt that he was a royal relative and the other party was also from a wealthy family, so he was a good match, so he decided. And because Baoyu was old and couldn't delay any longer, he couldn't help but hurry up. Fortunately, etiquette

It’s all ready. It’s just…”

Wang Xifeng sneered and said: "Second Master Lian is also an official. He asked someone to ask questions a long time ago. When he came back and told me, we both thought that there was something wrong with this marriage."

Bao Qin sneered and said: "What's wrong? It's simply inappropriate."

Although she is a girl, she has traveled around with her father since she was a child, and even went to northern Xinjiang to interact with girls from Eros, so in terms of knowledge, she is almost as knowledgeable as those Angzang men.

Seeing everyone looking at her, Baoqin said: "Baoyu is not familiar with worldly affairs and knows almost nothing. He just indulges in romance, poetry, wine, tea, flowers in front of and under the moon, even if he is being plotted by someone, he doesn't even know. Which noble family?"

, allows my daughter to meet her foreign husband? And allows Miss Xia to exchange gifts with him? "

Then he shook his head and said: "Knowing how to use this method shows that they have checked Brother Bao's character and are willing to do this because they feel they have a way to control it. Mrs. Wang wants to covet their extremely rich family, and she is afraid that she has made a wrong calculation. That girl will definitely

They are very scheming, I'm afraid their second room will be lively in the future."

Everyone nodded as he spoke.

And Wang Xifeng was all smiles.

Everyone could see that Wang Xifeng was gloating about his misfortune.

The girls all knew about the situation that Wang Xifeng encountered during her pregnancy. Although she was suppressed by Jia Mu, they would only be deceiving themselves if they said they didn't have the slightest idea in their hearts.

Therefore, everyone understands that Wang Xifeng has such a mentality.

Baochai looked at everyone, and then said to Wang Xifeng: "Second sister-in-law will have to stay in the east courtyard and go to Rongxi Hall less often. If she bumps into her, I'm afraid you will be in trouble.

"

Wang Xifeng sneered: "Should I go to Rongxi Hall? Humph! Originally, the lord of Rongguo Mansion was the big one, so we should live there. It's not that the master is incompetent, but the old lady is partial! I'll see how long they can have fun.
