Volume 4 Empire Dongsheng Chapter 55 Letter
Wang Fu sighed in his heart. If he started to enjoy it now, he could have lived his life freely. The Ming Dynasty had the foundation laid by itself, and there was no problem with continuing prosperity for a hundred years. As long as he did not close his country, with the intelligence and talent of the Han people, he would not be able to fall behind in the competition with the West. Why should he ask for trouble?
But another voice told himself that if he did not implement the action of reducing rent and interest rates, although the Ming Dynasty might be equally prosperous, the tenants with the majority population would always live at the bottom of the bottom and had almost no chance of turning around. How injustice is this. If he does not solve it, his descendants will not solve it, unless another major social change occurs and countless lives can be sacrificed to change.
Although he did not want to establish the foundation for all eternity, he would not turn a blind eye to this obvious problem, nor would he blame it on his descendants. Wang Fu replied for a while: "I will consider this matter again."
Fighting with the sky is endless, fighting with people is endless. For some reason, Wang Fu suddenly said this sentence, and his passion increased greatly. Since God allowed him to come to this world, there are naturally his reasons. If there are gods in heaven and avoiding is useless, then what's the harm in Fengshan?
When Xia Wanchun heard the emperor's tone relaxed, he was overjoyed, but his face did not show up and said respectfully: "The emperor is smart and wiser than the humble minister. This is just the humble minister's opinion. The emperor will consider it more thoughtful than the humble minister."
"Xia Aiqing, when did you become so flattering?" Wang Fu smiled on his face, paused before asking, "By the way, Xia Aiqing, I wonder where your second sister is now?"
Xia Wanchun felt a little bitter: "Go back to the emperor, my sister is rough and likes to walk around. Even her father doesn't know where she is, let alone the younger brother Weichen."
The emperor was interested in his sister, and Xia Wan. Chun discovered a few months ago that after writing a letter to tell his family, the Xia family was very excited. Xia Wanchun's two mothers, Lu and Sheng, each wrote a letter to Xia Wanchun, asking him to persuade Xia Yunzhen to agree.
For the Xia family, it would be the best if Xia Yunzhen could enter the palace. She was not only a trait of the Xia family but also aroused the Xia family's waters. However, Xia Wanchun knew that this was almost impossible to complete. With Xia Yunzhen's nature, even if she fell in love with the emperor, she would not enter the palace and became a cage bird from then on.
Sure enough, when Xia Yunzhen also realized the emperor's intention, she left the capital and left the capital before Xia Wanchun had time to persuade him. Afterwards, Xia Wanchun not only received letters from his mothers and complained, but when the emperor asked about it several times, Xia Wanchun was a little speechless.
Hearing Xia Wanchun's answer as usual, Wang Fu's face flashed with a clear look of disappointment, and he felt a stinging pain in his heart. As an emperor, he was rich in all over the world and had thousands of beauties in the harem, but he fell in love with a woman who could not be grasped. Perhaps it was Xia Yunzhen's unique temperament that attracted him. If she was like the women in the harem, Wang Fu would not know whether he would still like her at first sight.
"It's coming soon. New Year's Eve, will your second sister not come back?" Wang Fu asked unwillingly.
"This..." Xia Wanchun hesitated for a moment. Even if he didn't come back during the New Year in previous years, Xia Yunzhen would at least ask someone to bring back a letter. This year, not only did not return, but the letter has not arrived yet. Xia Wanchun was not sure that this was entirely due to the emperor's factors, but it should have a lot to do with it, but it was not convenient to say it clearly. He had to shake his head and said, "My sister has been independent since she was a child. She has not returned for the New Year many times before. I have long been accustomed to it."
After a while of silence, Wang Fu waved his hand and said with a dim look: "It's okay, please leave."
"Yes, I am following the order." Seeing the emperor's appearance, Xia Wanchun felt a little uncomfortable. He also hoped that his second sister would enter the palace. This was not just for his own sake, but just a feeling in his heart. If he really wanted to choose a brother-in-law, who would be worthy of his sister besides the current emperor? Unfortunately, if the sister himself was unwilling, even his parents would not be able to change her feelings. After walking out of the palace, Xia Wanchun turned around and said, "Emperor, if there is a voice from his sister, I will report to the emperor immediately."
Wang Fu nodded, his face unanswerable. If he used the power of the Jinyiwei to investigate, he might not be able to find Xia Yunzhen's traces. But if Xia Yunzhen deliberately avoided him, even if he found the traces, what if he could not force his orders to rob him? Even if Xia Yunzhen forced him to enter the palace by form, that was not what Wang Fu wanted.
Wanchun couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If the second sister was unwilling to enter the palace, not only would she let the emperor down, but she would probably have to be alone in this life. The second sister had already been betrayed a reputation as a husband, but now there is the factor of the emperor. Whoever is against the emperor again is better than not meeting the emperor at the beginning.
"Wait a minute." Just as Xia Wanchun was about to step out of the hall gate, the emperor suddenly stopped him.
Xia Wanchun had no choice but to turn around and come back and ask, "The emperor doesn't know what else to give?"
After calling Xia Wanchun, Wang Fu pondered for a moment before saying, "Let me do this, I will write a letter, and you can find a way to deliver it to Miss Xia."
Xia Wanchun was very distressed. The emperor clearly did not believe that he could not contact his sister, so he had to respond: "I obey the order." But he was worried. I don't know when this letter would be delivered to my second sister.
Wang Fu called out, and there was a palace maid who served him with a pen and ink, spreading the best rice paper on the table. Wang Fu thought for a while and started to walk on the paper. He stopped the pen after a while. The paper was already densely filled with writing. Xia Wanchun stood aside, feeling very curious. What the emperor wrote for his sister, but he didn't dare to peek at him if he had the courage.
After a while, the ink traces dries a little, the emperor put the letter into the envelope and sealed it with wax himself before handing it to Xia Wanchun. Xia Wanchun took the letter and held the thin letter in his hand, but it seemed to be a thousand pounds. He quickly put the letter in his arms and took the letter back to the emperor again.
This time, Wang Fu did not stop him and waved his hand to let Xia Wanchun go back. When Xia Wanchun returned home, it was already evening and the New Year was about to celebrate. Her husband was just back now. Even though Qian was usually virtuous, he couldn't help asking about the matter in the palace. Xia Wanchun was always cautious and did not even tell Qian about the matter of rent and interest reduction. Seeing that the wife asked her, she had to avoid the important matters and said the letter the emperor asked him to his second sister.
"You mean the emperor wrote a letter to his second sister?" Qian's gossip fire burned wildly. Qian naturally knew about the emperor and his sister-in-law.
