Zhi Xuan

Mrs. Ji's few words made her feel as if her heart hurts. She originally wanted to sneer, but in the end she became the object of ridicule.

Mrs. Xiang was not reconciled, and forced to put on a smile, revealing her worries for Mrs. Ji in her words.

"The wife of the side is from the Yuan family, and her elder brother is a great prince. I am really worried about my sister."

These words were not subtle at all, seemingly well-intentioned, but in fact they were full of provocation and gloating.

Mrs. Ji took a sip of the sweet soup, ate half of the pastry, and left Mrs. Xiang to dry for a while, until the other party's face almost changed before she said: "Sister Xiang is dissatisfied with the Yuan family, accusing the Yuan family's daughter of not knowing etiquette?"

"Of course not!" Mrs. Xiang was taken aback, she didn't expect Mrs. Ji to say that.

Wang Mushou, the representative of the Xiyuan Kingdom, no matter how old Zhixuan was, he was an out-and-out prince.The crown prince's position is inherently unstable, if it is reported that she is dissatisfied with the Yuan family, wouldn't it be endless trouble!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xiang looked at Mrs. Ji with unfriendly eyes, full of accusations.

"Ji Ling, what do you mean by spitting blood!"

Mrs. Ji put down her cup, raised her gaze, and sneered, "Xiang Xiu, you haven't made any progress after all these years."

"Bold!" Mrs. Xiang wanted to take advantage of it, and let out a bad breath, "How dare you disrespect me!"

"Are you worthy?" Mrs. Ji said lightly, in stark contrast to Mrs. Xiang's stern words, "Why don't you go back and ask the owner of the Xiang family, how dare he speak like this in front of my father?"

Mrs. Xiang blushed, both ashamed and angry.

The Xiang clan and the Ji clan are both big clans, so they were originally evenly matched.However, in the past ten years, the Ji family has developed rapidly and has won the trust of the king, while the Xiang family is completely opposite. Because of its clear attitude of supporting the prince, it is gradually disliked or even rejected by the king.

As the power struggle among the princes gradually intensifies, the prince must try to control the power in order to maintain his status, and the king is in good health, so he will definitely not delegate power easily.

To put it bluntly, I can still work for more than 20 or [-] years, but my son is in a hurry to get up, and the methods are not very smart. How can I be happy to be a Laozi?Certainly not!

Xiang Shi jumped up and down with the prince, and the King of Kings saw it in his eyes, and the perception can be imagined.

He's not dead yet!

As long as Xiang does not change his ways, he is doomed to continue being marginalized.If the family tree is not deeply rooted and the in-laws are all over the court, the king's wrist will be stronger, and it is definitely not easy to let it go after being treated coldly.

On the other hand, the Ji family married Prince Huai and successfully escaped from the struggle for royal power. They are clearly loyal to the king, which will naturally make the king feel at ease, and then be reused, forming a significant contrast with the Xiang family.

Mrs. Ji dared to speak in front of Mrs. Xiang because she had enough confidence.The words were tactful, she was afraid that the other party would pretend to be stupid, so she simply went straight to the point and said it clearly at once, lest Mrs. Xiang think she was afraid of her.

"Xiangxiu, I advise you to stay at home honestly and think about how to give birth to a son and a half daughter, and stop thinking about what you have all day long. What does my husband marrying his wife have anything to do with you? Someday You should be concerned about having one more side wife in the prince's mansion. I forgot, the prince already has a side wife, and a son and a daughter under his knees." Mrs. Ji was not polite at all, and directly stabbed Mrs. Xiang with a knife. Why, "I just find it strange that you can't give birth, and neither can the wives around you? The daughter of Xiang's family is only capable of this, and you still have the face to speak nonsense in front of me?"

Mrs. Xiang is the crown prince's wife, and Mrs. Ji is the prince's wife. In terms of her husband's family, Mrs. Xiang's status is higher than Mrs. Ji's.But who gave Mrs. Ji a powerful natal family?

What's more, what she said was the truth, even if the words were not pleasant, Mrs. Xiang couldn't do anything to her with the support of the Ji family.

Originally Madam Ji didn't want to do this, but Madam Xiang couldn't understand the wink, which made Madam Ji very impatient, so she just inserted a knife and sent the person away as soon as possible, so as not to waste her own time.

Mrs. Xiang's face turned from red to green, then from green to white, and finally as black as the bottom of a pot.

She wanted to refute Mrs. Ji, but couldn't find any reason.

It is an indisputable fact that the crown prince has no legitimate sons, and it is also the crown prince's weakness.

The crown prince is canonized as the eldest son, and the eldest son must be killed to succeed to the throne. Otherwise, what reason is there to suppress the brothers who are fighting for power?If the word is released and the concubine is allowed to become the heir, the court will become even more chaotic, and it is not just his half-brother who is born with ambition!

The king has eleven adult sons, if all of them participate in the competition, the pressure on the prince can be imagined, and his status will be even more precarious.

Mrs. Xiang is not as smart as Mrs. Ji, but she is by no means stupid.

Mrs. Ji's words were really unpleasant and made her heart ache, but it was also an out-and-out fact that could not be refuted.

Mrs. Ji watched Mrs. Xiang's face change, and could not feel any sympathy.

Grabbing a lot of the little braids behind him, he still dared to come to find her uncomfortable, which is really courageous.

In today's confrontation, Mrs. Xiang failed to get half of the bargain, but was stabbed consecutively, so she had to leave in despair.

Mrs. Ji did not pursue and beat her fiercely, she sent her out of the house very politely, then wrote a letter and sent it to Ji Kang.

She is [-]% sure that Xiangxiu's visit today is not just to see a joke, but definitely has the intention of probing.Because of this, she sternly spoke, didn't give the other party any face, and made him unable to get off the stage face to face, so she had to leave early.

"When you see my father, you don't need to say much, just send the letter."

"promise!"

The servant exited the door and delivered the letter to Ji's house in person.

Mrs. Ji got up and walked to the door. The winter sun was setting, and the golden butterfly on her hair was about to take off.

The wind blew through the corridor, rolled up her sleeves, and the patterns on the cuffs flowed like water waves.When she raised her hand, the pattern reflected the gold ornaments on her hair, making it more radiant.

Mrs. Xiang returned to the Prince's Mansion, closed the door, the anger disappeared on her face, and her eyes became dark.

Recalling the confrontation with Mrs. Ji, her brows became more and more tense, and her heart went back and forth several times before she wrote a letter and sent it back to Xiang's home.

In recent years, she has often shown people as reckless and narrow-minded, and many people forget how smart she was when she was young.But it's okay, wearing this mask will make things more convenient.

It's just that she wasn't sure if she could fool Ji Ling.

Maybe not.

Fortunately, Wang Zihuai has no intention of participating in the battle for the throne, otherwise he would be the most difficult opponent!

Undercurrents are surging in the city of Zhongdu, and a storm is bound to set off around this marriage.

Zhixuan, who was far away in the grassland, did not know the situation in Zhongdu City. After seeing the wedding envoy, he swiped a pen and added monkey wine to Yuantao's dowry.

The gift of marriage envoys is for fruit wine, and the emphasis is on monkey wine.

"Your Majesty, the wine hidden in the tree is really a gift from God!" The marriage envoy cried out in person, sending monkey wine to the top of the city was a waste of money.Even if such sacred wine is not offered, it should be rewarded to the clan, and no matter how bad it is, it should be sold at a high price.

The Xiyuan Kingdom clan is used to the miracles that appear every now and then, so they don't pay more attention to the supernatural additions.

This is not the case with the marriage envoy.

Witnessing the loot that Zhi Xuan brought back from the forest, and hearing the word of mouth in the city, he was shocked. He couldn't believe that Zhi Xuan wanted to dispose of the divine wine at will and send it to the top of the city?

In this way, he will rush to see Zhi Xuan and tell the preciousness of monkey wine.If possible, he is willing to buy at a high price. Whether it is shipped back to the capital city or sold to other countries, the price can be multiplied several times, even ten times.

After listening to the envoy's narration, Zhi Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and seeing the other party's eyes shine, what a talent!

If he didn't know that this person would be reused by the king, poaching corners would not be successful. He would 100% dig with a shovel and dig directly under his hands to work.

Facing Zhi Xuan's gaze, cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the bestowing envoy, secretly speculating in his heart, did he say too much and angered Marquis Xiyuan?

Thinking of this, the marriage envoy wished he could give himself two slaps.

His original purpose was to buy fruit wine, but he couldn't control his mouth while talking.If he really angered Marquis Xiyuan and couldn't buy fruit wine, he would probably be unlucky.

Fortunately, what he worried about didn't happen.

When Zhi Xuan was reminded by him, he quickly had an idea in his mind. It was impossible to sell monkey wine to him, but he was very generous in fruit wine.Knowing that he intends to make a difference, he sold him a batch of wines of very good quality, but these wines cannot be sold in Zhongdu City, other places are free.

The fruit wine business in Zhongducheng is monopolized by Wang Zihuai. This was clearly written in the terms when the two decided to cooperate. As long as nothing happens, it will not change within ten years.

"Thank you sir!"

After getting the fruit wine, the wedding envoy was overjoyed.

He didn't intend to do business in Zhongdu City at all, except for Wang Zihuai, no one would be so independent.

His plan is to use the power of the family to reunite with his in-laws, make a fortune in the shortest possible time, and stop when he makes it, never greedy for more.

After the marriage envoy bid farewell and left, Zhi Xuan thought carefully and decided to distribute a batch of monkey wine as Yuan Tao's dowry.

The reason for this is of course not the flavor of the wine, but the magical aura attached to it.Bringing this batch of wine into Zhongdu City, whether it is a gift or a banquet, can help Yuan Tao gain a firm foothold as soon as possible and open up the situation.

Regarding the legend about himself, Zhi Xuan really couldn't explain it, no one would believe it if he told it, so he could only lie down.Now lying down is not enough, so I just use it, anyway, it’s not for nothing.

The monkey wine has a poor flavor and a sour taste, which inevitably does not meet everyone's expectations.

Zhi Xuan thought it over and over again, finally summoned the government order, and gave such and such and such and such orders.

"Do it in secret, don't let the wind out."

"promise!"

The magistrate solemnly accepted the order, personally led people out of the mansion, took back all the monkey wine, transported it back to the warehouse, and took another batch of fruit wine to send to the city.

The monkey wine brought back to the house was changed and replaced by newly brewed fruit wine.

This batch of fruit wine tasted even better, it was extremely high-quality, no one had ever drank it except the wine servant and Zhi Xuan, so it happened to replace the monkey wine and send it back to the Western Capital City.

All of this was done in secret, and Zhi Xuan didn't reveal anything to Zhao Hao, and the relevant executors such as the government order were even more tight-lipped.When the wine jar is lifted out and loaded into the truck, it is the real monkey wine, which cannot be questioned.

Zhao Hao noticed Zhixuan's actions and felt suspicious in his heart, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't get to the bottom of it.

Zhi Xuan was very satisfied.

Although the two are married, there is still room for getting along.As far as their status is concerned, it is never a good thing to have no reservations about each other, and in some cases it can lead to trouble and even bad results.

The team heading to the western capital is ready to go, and Yang Hao gets his wish and arranges Yang Qi into the team.If the trip goes well, he will also fight for a wedding envoy for his son.

Yang Qi's qualifications are indeed low, but with Yang Hao as his backing, and Yuan Tao's mother is from the Yang family, if things work, the success rate should not be low.

Two days after the team set off, Zhi Xuan's letter arrived in the western capital first.

The letter was not sent to Yuan Tao, but sent directly to Mrs. Yang.

Mrs. Yang read the contents of the letter, and immediately summoned Yuan Tao.It just so happened that Yuan Ying was talking to her sister, so driven by curiosity, she followed her.

When the two sisters saw Mrs. Yang, the latter directly handed over Zhi Xuan's letter for Yuan Tao to read carefully.

Yuan Ying leaned over and took a look, marveling at the kindness that Jun Shang showed to her sister.While Yuan Tao was moved, more thoughts arose in her heart.

"Understood?" Mrs. Yang asked.

Yuan Tao closed the bamboo slips, took a deep breath, and said, "Your Majesty, Long En."

Mrs. Yang nodded in relief, and said: "Tao, Ying, you must keep in mind that as daughters of the Yuan clan and sisters of the princes, your marriage is unusual. Your husband's favor is important, but it is by no means the most important thing. You must shoulder the responsibility. Responsibility, living up to the name of the Yuan family, this is the most important thing."

Yuan Tao and Yuan Ying listened to their mother's teachings, kept in mind every word that Mrs. Yang said, and promised in unison with awe-inspiring expressions.
