What happened after the second choice
Although Chu Xiuming did not come to see Chen Jin off, he came to pick Chen Jin up in person. He sat in the carriage. Chen Jin showed him the list, which was similar to Chu Xiuming's thoughts, but there were several families that were not on the list, and Chu Xiuming was not surprised. His direction was more about the family.
Chu Xiuyuan's current status does not need to rely on the power of his father-in-law's family to balance the government's affairs, so choosing a queen does not require the prominent family, but rather requires the kind of people who are not confused in the family. The most important thing is character and vision.
Although the queen only needs to manage the harem and raise children so that the emperor has no worries, these are often very important. The influence of a mother has a lot to do with the growth of the child, and teach by example.
When the child is young, he stays with his mother more often. Although it is not certain to see the age of three years, it also represents the importance of these three years. When the child grows up, he can be with him as a father. It is like Emperor Cheng's method of treating the enemy. He has ambition but does not have the strength comparable to his ambition. Those methods are too despicable.
Princess Rui would exclude those families, but it was because there was something inappropriate for the girls in that family.
Chen Jin said, "Actually, the niece of the mother's wife is very good." She spent a long time with the girl, "it's just not suitable."
Chu Xiuming lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Yes."
Chen Jin didn't say anything anymore, "Then I'll write a post when I go back."
"A few more companies." Chu Xiuming said, "It's impossible for people to find out that they choose from these companies. More companies can also be used as cover. "How are you going to choose?"
Chen Jin lay on Chu Xiuming's ear and started whispering. Chu Xiuming's eyes were smiling. He hugged Chen Jin's waist, and simply carried the person into his arms, pinched a piece of candied fruit and put it in her mouth. Chen Jin plucked his cheeks and ate it slowly. He felt that he had not arrived home for a long time, so he opened the car window and looked out and said, "Hey, it's not the way home."
"Didn't you want to try the fish sashimi on West Street the day before yesterday?" Although Chu Xiuming didn't laugh, his voice was very gentle. Chen Jin's casual words were remembered by him.
Sure enough, Chen Jin's eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously, "I heard An Ning mention it. Yue Wen took An Ning to eat it and said it tasted very good."
Chu Xiuming pinched Chen Jin's hand. He had gained weight a lot by him, but Chu Xiuming was not satisfied at all. He always felt that he was much thinner than when he first saw his little wife.
Which fish sashimi in West Street is good, the fish is very fresh, and the people who make it have good skills. It is said that the boss was engaged in business on the coastal side. The family's ancestral craftsmanship is well-deserved. The seafood in this restaurant is pretty good, and there is no excessive seasoning and it tastes delicious, but the remaining dishes can only be considered average. Chen Jin did not eat too much, because the imperial doctor also said that she was a little weak and needed to keep it well. She could only taste seafood and could only taste it.
After using up, Chu Xiuming found a garment shop, took Chen Jin to change into the clothes he had prepared in advance, and then stopped the carriage and turned around on the West Street. There were a lot of snacks on the West Street, especially at night, which was particularly lively. Many people would take their family here to play after a day of hard work, buy some gadgets or food. The things here are not expensive.
This was the first time Chen Jin came here. Looking at the lively scene, it seemed that the fatigue and laziness that had been a while ago had disappeared, and he became energetic. Chu Xiuming protected Chen Jin in his arms, and the guards also changed their costumes and dispersed them and followed them nearby. Even the maid was sent away by Chu Xiuming and asked them to play on their own.
The things here are not precious, but they look very interesting. There are various small animals weaving from bamboo, and small attics made with straw and bamboo. Chen Jin saw that he liked it and bought more to go back for the children to play. In addition, there were also things like clay and faces. Chen Jin also bought sugar paintings and asked people to wrap them up. These were all handed over to the guards who followed behind. Chen Jin naturally knew that someone was following him, and as long as he did not disturb them, Chen Jin would not care.
After walking for a while, Chu Xiuming took Chen Jin to a teahouse, preparing to take a rest. Who knew that he saw a dirty-clad beggar curled up there in a corner not far from the teahouse, and several people were kicking and beating. Chen Jin was stunned, "Don't anyone care?"
Chu Xiuming took a look and stopped paying attention. There was a little sarcasm in his eyes, "Who knows."
Chen Jin remembered that there were soldiers patrolling the capital. If they really seek revenge or dislike this beggar, these people should not be in such a place. If they were discovered, they would at least be imprisoned for three or five days, and the punishment would be even heavier. I don’t know how Chen Jin was when Emperor Cheng was, but Chu Xiuyuan was not merciful. Since he ascended the throne, the laws of this should not have happened.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Jin was stunned and said, "Then I'll give them all..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw a servant who had already stepped forward to drive away the men who beat people and scolded loudly, "What kind of grudge does this beggar have with you? You are so cruel. My girl can't stand it. Why don't you get out of here?"
"Do you know who we are?" said the gangster who was beating someone angrily.
The servant said coldly, "If you don't accept it, go to Yao's Mansion..."
When Chu Xiuming heard this, he stopped listening and asked in a low voice, "Are you still going to have tea?"
Chen Jin nodded and said, "Let's take a break." She was a little tired.
Chu Xiuming responded and took Chen Jin to the teahouse. Who knew that the situation had changed again. He saw that the beaters had already run away. Then a girl with a curtain was helped by a maid to walk to the beggar. Because they were close, they heard the girl's voice. The girl asked the maid to take the silver to the beggar, and then said, "You have hands and feet, use this money to do some business."
The beggar's eyes turned red in an instant, and he knelt down and kowtowed the girl hard. He was grateful. When the people around him saw this, they all praised the girl and the tutors of the Yao family in a low voice.
Chen Jin and Chu Xiuming stopped looking and went straight into the teahouse. After asking for a private room, Chu Xiuming ordered a few pastries and tea here, and asked for another pot of warm water. The warm water was for Chen Jin to drink. The guards were outside, but they did not disturb the two of them. Chu Xiuming poured Chen Jin a cup of warm water and asked her to drink it slowly. Then he said, "That person is from the Yao family, and it should be Yao San."
Yao San? The third girl of the Yao family is now fifteen or sixteen, and she is the age to get married. No wonder. Although they have no hidden traces, the Yao family was able to find out so quickly and arranged this scene. "The news is very clear." Chen Jin took a few sips of water and spoke.
Chu Xiuming responded, and he sat by the window and looked down casually, "It's too much."
The Yao Mansion scene was just to push Yao San out. A kind but not overly kind girl and who is knowledgeable is very suitable for the queen. Even if it is not the queen, there is another place in the harem.
But from the beginning, Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin felt strange. In fact, Yao's mansion had a good plan, but he had never been to the border city. He didn't know the situation there. Chu Xiuyuan's governance of Tianqi largely borrowed from the governance of the border city, and the management of the people in the city was particularly loose on the outside and tight on the inside.
Chen Jin nodded and said nothing. Anyway, Yao San was not on the list given to her by Princess Rui.
Chu Xiuming poured the water in Chen Jin's cup to eight cents, and then said, "I'll invite her at that time."
Chen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming in confusion. Chu Xiuming smiled and pinched Chen Jin's hand and said, "She is a bit scheming, use her to try others."
"Oh." Chen Jin stopped saying anything and nodded.
The two of them took a while and then went home with the things they bought. The invitation was written by Chen Jin himself. Because of the advice of Chu Xiuming, her handwriting was much better than when she was in the capital. The invitation paper was prepared by Ma Ma Zhao. Chen Jin didn't know what paper it was, but he just thought it was quite beautiful, but everyone who received it was aware of the goods. The paper was a tribute, and it was ordinary when you looked at it at a rough look, but you would find that the paper had dark patterns on it, with patterns such as plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, mountains, rivers, and lakes. It would not make the words on it messy, but it was a unique freehand style.
