There is a home in the depths of the white clouds

Chapter 250 Adding makeup from the emperor

"You said, if I am like the ancients looking for a great sage in the world, how about making him an official?" Emperor Xianzong rested his chin with one hand and imagined: "Then I can use him now."

"My lord, you can't enter the Hanlin unless you're a Jinshi, and you can't join the cabinet unless you're an Imperial scholar." Wantong tapped the emperor's imperial case twice: "Do you think he will always have a false title and be blocked from doing things?"

"Alas!" Emperor Xianzong sighed, "You are the only one who dares to say that in front of me."

"I understand, you are also in a hurry." Now there are too few people around the emperor, and the throne that was already firmly seated was vacillating again because he had no son.

Otherwise, he would not be anxious about military power, and used two deals to win over the two Dukes.

"Then Wu You... But what do you need me for? I always feel a little guilty about taking things from others and not giving them anything in return." Emperor Xianzong is actually a very interesting person when he is not working.

Because of his experience, no one else has the ups and downs like him, so his mentality is different from the previous emperors.

"No for the time being." Wantong thought for a while: "My lord, after accepting the prescription of white sugar, I even asked him, saying that such a prescription is not an exaggeration as a family heirloom, so why donate it? "

"Indeed." Emperor Xianzong nodded: "The family heirloom is enough, and it will make the descendants of the family rich and prosperous for at least five generations.

"He said this is his master..." Wantong slightly modified the dialogue at that time, portraying Wu Youwei as a scholar who cared about the country and the world, and Wu Youwei still had a bit of reputation in Beijing, so that day The song, five songs, and one riddle with two answers are almost making people crazy.

Emperor Xianzong had Wantong by his side, as well as other people. Yuan Bin and others also knew this Wu servant, Wu Youwei.

Coupled with Wu Youwei's status, if Wu Qian'er hadn't been abolished as queen, everyone might not dare to say anything blatantly; isn't this abolished?

So everyone sympathized with Wu Youwei, as a concubine who was kicked out when the family was prosperous, it was indeed very worthy of pity.

now?

Everyone said that it was Wu Youwei who had a noble character and couldn't bear the smog of the Wu family, so he left the family voluntarily.

So much so that the current Emperor Xianzong felt more and more that Wu Youwei was a good person.

Even if the solution Wu Youwei came up with was basically related to money, he didn't dislike Wu Youwei anymore.

Making money for yourself is like copper; making money for the court is doing for the country and the people, with the world in mind.

"So you mean, he still has many ways to make money?" Emperor Xianzong thought of something.

"Probably?" Wantong didn't dare to guarantee Wu Youwei, what if he didn't?How to explain to the emperor?

It's better to be safe, not sure.

"Send some more people to protect him." Emperor Xianzong clenched his fists: "No one is allowed to hurt him!"

Wantong took the opportunity to tell Emperor Xianzong: "I have already bought the house next door to the minister's house, and I will try it next year. Let him move here. It just so happens that he still has a few classmates in Beijing. Let's study together.

Emperor Xianzong thought that Wantong wanted to get people next door to his house for his own sake, which was much better than Mo Ling Shanzhuang. After all, that place was in the suburbs of Beijing, not in the middle of Beijing.

"Okay, it's Zhongming's thoughtfulness!" Emperor Xianzong felt very heartwarming: "I have people buy Zhongming's house, front, back, left, and right!"

Wantong...!! ! "

Did the emperor misunderstand?

"My lord, the minister's house is diagonally across from his second sister's house, and there are basically Jinyiwei nearby." Wantong hurriedly explained: "There is no need for other arrangements."

There is really someone from the emperor around. If they want to do something, he will definitely be worried. Is there someone listening to the corner on the roof...

Emperor Xianzong was even more moved, and said it was not for me?Check out this arrangement.

"His second younger sister's family?" Emperor Xianzong was taken aback: "His younger sister married Jin Yiwei?"

Wantong talked about the origin of the "sister": it was the maid in his family who had reached the age and was released from a good family status, and she was a decent and good family member.

He also said that another person under his command, Wan Xinpeng, also married one and had children.

"So it is." Emperor Xianzong was even happier: "Very good, very good!"

It is not easy for Jin Yiwei to get married. Given the special nature of Jin Yiwei, the first thing is to have an innocent family background, but who will marry a girl with an innocent family background?

The second is to be psychologically prepared to stay alone.

When Jin Yiwei went on a business trip, the shortest time was three to five days, and the longest time was three to five years. If he couldn't afford to be a woman, what should he do?

The third is to be prepared to be a widow.

Jin Yiwei's business trips are not foolproof. On the contrary, they have many dangerous errands. Broken arms and legs are easy, and some of them will die if they are not careful.

So in view of these three points, Jin Yiwei's marriage has become a serious problem, almost all of which are internally digested by Jin Yiwei. Whoever has a girl, several people are watching.

This time Wu Youwei had many girls, and I heard that there were four more, who were going to marry the disabled Jin Yiwei. Emperor Xianzong felt that those girls were virtuous and virtuous.

"The marriages are all settled, and we just wait until after the filial piety is removed, and we will all marry off one by one." Wantong said with a smile: "If you want to reward, I suggest that you try to reward the wedding supplies as much as possible. His sisters, how can they be married?" They are all people who want to get married, and he has already started preparing the dowry.

"This is fine!" Emperor Xianzong came to the interest: "Wynn! Wynn!"

Because the white sugar recipe is a secret, eunuch Wynn guards the gate himself. Now that he heard the emperor calling him, he knew it was over, so he hurried in and said, "Here he is! He is here!"

"Go and see, what good fabrics are suitable for weddings?" Emperor Xianzong said enthusiastically: "It means auspicious."

"Yes, my lord." Eunuch Wynn said without even looking at it: "There was a batch of silk brocades brought in as a tribute before the year, and five hundred of them were all red. It belongs to the queen's color, so Curry has kept it all and didn't dare to mess with it.

True red is the color of the main room, side rooms and concubine rooms, etc., even red flowers are not allowed to be worn, so the people in the inner treasury dare not move around. Go to the Queen.

"Pick out [-] carts and give them to Wantong." Emperor Xianzong pointed at Wantong: "It's the best quality, the kind that symbolizes auspiciousness, and can be used as a wedding dress."

Eunuch Wynn thought Wantong was going to get married, so he quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Master Wan, congratulations, Master Wan."

No matter I've never heard of engagement before, but now that people are getting married, it's never wrong to say a few auspicious words.

Wantong couldn't laugh or cry: "Elder-in-law, it's not about getting married in an official position.

"Ah?" Eunuch Wynn was dumbfounded: "Then this is the emperor?"

Emperor Xianzong laughed, he was amused.

Eunuch Wynn thought of something, and immediately said seriously: "My lord, don't laugh, no matter how much you like Concubine Wan, you can't go past the queen!"

Emperor Xianzong and Wantong were both dumbfounded: Where is this all?

"My lord!" Eunuch Wynn stomped his feet: "Concubine Wan is already having a hard time in the palace, so don't make trouble for her anymore, she is still pregnant with a dragon fetus, if you continue to reward the big red There are so many fabrics, it’s too dazzling!" Concubine Wan is also unlucky, the emperor's favor is good, but it doesn't matter if it's suitable or not, it's not good to just keep pampering.

There is only one man like the emperor in the palace, and there are thousands of women, including more than a dozen concubines, dozens of concubines, and some of them have never even seen the emperor's face. Basically, the end will not be better.Far away is Concubine Yang of the Tang Dynasty, and nearby is Queen Hang and Concubine Huang of the former Dynasty.

"I know." After hearing what Eunuch Huai En said, Emperor Xianzong knew that he was doing it for his own good, so he explained in a good voice: "This is for Wantong, let him take it out to reward people, not for Zhen'er. ,Do not worry."

Wantong is very grateful to Eunuch Wynn, there is such a person in front of the emperor, always admonishing, the life of the eldest sister will be easier.

Since then, the relationship between Wantong and Eunuch Wynn has become better. After Concubine Wan found out, she also secretly thanked Eunuch Wynn. The emperor's heart is good, but he is too anxious and always wants to give her the best , but don't look at whether it is suitable or not.

When Wantong was 28, he brought [-] cars to Moring Villa again.

Wu Youwei was confused when he saw it: "Have you moved?"

"It was a gift from the emperor, and the emperor has already seen your recipe." Wan Tao said, "There are still many things to do in the future. The emperor thinks that you don't want anything. He is guilty of holding the prescription. I heard that your girls are not Are you going to get married? I specially rewarded you with twenty carts of cloth, all of which are red, with various patterns, and ten carts of gifts.

Twenty carts of cloth, each of ten carts, are silk, silk, silk, satin, silk, silk, brocade, silk, and two fine cotton cloth.

The color of the flowers is also very good, such as the heaven and the earth in the same spring, the celestial maiden scattered flowers, auspicious wishes, etc., are all red for weddings, and because they are all tributes, they are naturally much better than those outside.

The remaining ten carts are all kinds of high-end handicrafts of this time, such as cloisonné vases, rosewood decorations, vanity mirrors made of brass mixed with gold, and so on.

It is indeed very suitable for dowry, and what's more special is that Wu Youwei was given a jewelry box made of [-] pieces of golden nanmu!

Golden nanmu!

Unless this thing is a reward from the royal family, it will not be seen outside, which is a great way to save face.

Without the emperor's permission, private use of a piece of nanmu is a capital crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the clan.

This thing is actually not rare in ancient times, but this thing has a good color, what is it usually used for?

It is generally only used for the dead, and it is used as a coffin for the emperor, empress, empress dowager, and crown prince.

It's something that even the princess can't use.

No matter how favored a concubine is, she is still a concubine, so she can't use it.

Another point is more important. When this thing is used as a living thing, it generally has only one purpose, and that is to make a dragon chair for the emperor.

This thing has a great meaning, basically only a few people with the prefix "Huang" can use it, and if others use it, if it is not a reward, it is courting death.

Now, he has twenty golden nanmu jewelry boxes bestowed by the emperor.

The workmanship is very atmospheric, and the patterns carved on it are all uniform, like orioles.

The oriole is small and exquisite, with different shapes, and the oriole has many children, which has a better meaning.

Wu Youwei asked Housekeeper Lin Su to find two people and send them to the two married girls, and kept the rest as dowries for the girls and daughters.

Properly have face.

Wantong was not interested in his allocation of things, but the fermented glutinous rice balls that Tie Niu brought him were delicious: "Why are there still glutinous rice balls?"

"Master likes to eat, so Chef Fang made some more." Tieniu brought wine rice balls and a plate of beef jerky.

After Wantong finished eating, Wu Youwei was still looking at the gifts in the warehouse.

Wantong went to the study by himself, picked a book to read, and when he opened it, he found a strange blueprint inside, with strange things drawn on it.

There are instructions at the back: muskets.

This is a torch? ?

After counting the things, Wu Youwei personally took a jewelry box and sent it to the backyard, and gave it to Aunt Haijuan: "This is a dowry for Pei'er."

The housekeeper lady is knowledgeable, she immediately exclaimed, and then told Aunt Haijuan about the origin of this thing, Aunt Haijuan almost offered up the jewelry box!
