All Hail Cousin Brother

They are all good friends. How could Yu Zongzheng not know that this Concubine Ye was originally a distant cousin of Master Tang, and was fostered at home because of the poor family, and the two had an affair early in the morning.

After Mrs. Tang passed the door, she took a concubine, and she did a lot of spoiling the concubine and destroying her wife.

Mrs. Tang is not soft-natured, so Mrs. Tang naturally prefers her niece, and Mrs. Tang suffers a lot of grievances.

Yu Zongzheng understood clearly: "Master Tang has suspended his post in name, but everyone knows that when he goes, he is just going to have a tea, and when this post is suspended depends on the emperor's intention, even if he can't go back to the Hanlin Academy, But staying in the Tengwenguan is not the same thing, after the rumor of fraud has passed, it is definitely necessary to re-organize and organize activities, and the help of the Yue family of Master Tang is indispensable."

Zhan Shifu has a wide range of people, and the courtiers are willing to give some face.

A few days earlier, Yu Youyao received a letter from Miss Tang Wu, in which she mentioned this matter.

By the way, I also said that Tang Miaoyun, the eldest daughter of the concubine who used to be favored by her father and grandmother, was a blessing in front of her. Because her aunt was going to send her to Zhuangzi, she cried and cried at home, and was grounded by Mrs. Tang.

What Mrs. Tang meant was that Tang Miaoyun was not too young, she had arranged a marriage last year, and planned to marry her as soon as possible.

Yu Youyao opened his mouth: "Has Ning Yuanbo been convicted of the crime?"

Mrs. Yu turned her head to look at her eldest granddaughter. In the past two years, as long as the family didn't talk about some unspeakable private matters, they basically did not avoid her.

Often the granddaughter can always hit the nail on the head.

Today is no exception. Because she and the boss are familiar with Zhenguohou Mansion and Tang Mansion, they will inevitably say a few more words, but her focus is on Ning Yuanbo, the initiator.

Yu Zongzheng shook his head: "Not yet, although Ning Yuanbo was sent to prison because of fraud in the scientific examination, since he was in prison, it is impossible to investigate only this one, and he must also check all the things he committed in the past. Only later will he be convicted, Ning Yuanbo is a noble man, he pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, and he still has to investigate."

Yu Youyao understood as soon as he heard it, it was good to pull out the radish and bring out the mud, but to get to the bottom of it, there was still a partisan dispute, and I felt tired.

Uncle Ning Yuan's family also has a concubine in the palace. Although Concubine Lu was put into the cold palace, Concubine Lu gave birth to a son and two daughters.

Thinking of this, Yu Youyao was startled again.

The emperor is addicted to Taoism and has not been drafted for many years. Except for those who have died, there are currently only three princes in the palace.

Among them, the eldest prince was originally born by the queen, and died within a month. The middle palace had no children, and the second prince, born and raised by Concubine Lu, did not have the word "di" on his head, so he became "long".

In the Zhou Dynasty, the second prince occupied a "long" character and was always loved by the emperor. Hearing that Concubine Lu was put into the cold palace on the second day, the emperor was still in the imperial study, praising the second prince's article.

It can be seen that whether Concubine Lu falls out of favor or not, does not affect the father-son relationship between the emperor and the second prince.

The biological mother of the third prince is Concubine Xu.

Except for the queen who is the lord of the harem, the concubines are the most expensive of the four concubines.

The imperial concubine of the first rank is a concubine, and her status is second only to the queen, almost equal to the flat wife, but because of the word "Di", she is shorter than the middle palace.

Next, there are Concubine Noble, Concubine Xian, Concubine Shu, all of which are of one grade.

Among them, the imperial concubine is the first number of the group of concubines. Because the imperial concubine does not often have it, the imperial concubine is a veritable "head of the group of concubines", and it is also a treasure.

Concubine Lu Huanggui downgraded her position and became Concubine Lan. Among the princes, the three princes from Concubine Xu were the most valuable.

The biological mother of the fourth prince is said to be a little palace maid who climbed on the dragon's bed. I don't know whether to say that the little palace maid had a good life, and she became pregnant after serving the bed once, or that she was blessed and saw the birth of a dragon. Seeds, prosperity and wealth are at your fingertips, but in the process of giving birth, she died due to dystocia.

The status of the birth mother of the fourth prince is low, and nothing can be seen for the time being.

but!

The emperor has not yet established a heir. The second prince from Concubine Lu has the word "long", and the third prince from Concubine Xu has the word "precious".

The case of Ning Yuanbo, which also involved the harem and even the battle for the throne, was far from being settled so easily.

Yu Youyao was in a trance for a while.

The case of fraud in the scientific examination has finally come to an end, but the dark tide in the harem and the court has just begun.

Is this what my cousin called Xiangzhuang dancing the sword?

Probably more than that!

Beginning on the sixth day of April, all the grain shops under the name of Yufu and Yu Youyao have set up porridge sheds, and they have kept rice porridge for three days.

The people who did not pick up the green and yellow finally ate Tommy.

No one thought that Yufu was not being kind.

When the year is good, a liter of rice is only about 40 to 50 wen.

But in recent years, the price of rice has risen to one hundred cents a liter, and ordinary people can no longer afford rice. (Note: One liter of rice is about a pound and a half, a bucket of ten liters, and a bucket of rice is about 500 to 1,000 yuan!)

Yu Mansion is also willing to build a porridge shed for Shemi.

At this time, a low-key carriage stopped on Zhengyang Street.

The interior of the carriage was quite luxurious. A man of about seventeen or eighteen years of age, wearing a purple python robe, but a belt of Huangyu dragon head and toe scales tied around his waist, leaned against the carriage with an unhappy expression.

After a while, a frail-looking young man entered the carriage.

The man frowned: "Why is the road blocked in front? Did you find out?"

The young man's voice was shrill and feminine: "Returning to the master, in front is the rice shop of Mr. Yu's house, the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, and Mrs. Yu pays homage to the Buddha. In a few days, it will be the festival of worshipping the Buddha. , I'm leaving the porridge, this year is not good, the people heard that the Yu Mansion was leaving the porridge, and they came to eat the porridge one after another, because there were too many people, so they blocked the road of Zhengyang Street."

Hearing his companions mention Yu's mansion, the man first thought of it. Three years ago, when the Yu clan was one of the top four scholars, it was obvious that the father wanted to reuse the Yu clan.

Then I thought again, Master Yu is the official minister of the Ministry of Personnel, a high-ranking member of the third rank. The Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the appointment and dismissal, examination, promotion, and transfer of officials across the country, and is the head of the six ministries.

In addition, Mr. Yu Er, Yu Zongshen, who is the Minister of the Ministry of Households, is also a scholar of Wenyuange, is the second assistant of the cabinet, and will take over the post of Xia Yansheng's first assistant.

Seeing the thoughtful expression of the master, the companion was a little flustered: "Master, you can't let go of this porridge and rice for a while, do you want to take a detour?"

"Detour?" The man raised his eyes and glanced at him: "When did Ben Gong say that he was going to detour?"

The companion knew that he had made a mistake, and hurriedly remedied: "It's better, the servants go to the Wucheng Military Ma Si Yamen, and let them temporarily drive away the people eating porridge, it is worse than letting the master wait on the road."
