Chapter 538: lose face
Zheng Jingshuang asked Xie Zhiwei what Princess Taiping said to her, and she was also very curious to see Princess Dagon, Xie Zhiwei did not hide anything, and told about Cui Nanwan, saying, "Mrs. , who dares to marry into Xuandehou's mansion?"
Princess Dagon said, "Speaking of which, my aunt is too soft-tempered, and she cherishes her reputation, for fear of being called an evil mother-in-law, and she is too conniving to the Dahan family."
Xie Zhiwei knew that Princess Dagon was putting gold on Taiping's face when she said this. Taiping is a princess who is not favored by the emperor. How can she suppress the Dahan family?
At the moment, Xie Zhiwei didn't say much, Princess Dagon skipped this section, smiled and said to Xie Zhiwei, "I heard that you have a good chess skill, I wonder if I will have the honor to play a game with you?"
Zheng Jingshuang is also a chess lover. Xie Zhiwei played chess with Princess Dagon, and she watched the game from the sidelines.
Princess Dagon's chess style is open and close, and Xie Zhiwei admires it very much. Although the two are not evenly matched, Xie Zhiwei also plays extremely restrained because he wants to observe the princess's chess style. He played a game of chess for nearly an hour.
It was already noon, and Zheng Jingyan and Xie Mingxi had a table of noodles in the front yard.
Xie Zhiwei was hungry, so she quickly cut through the mess, changed her gentle style of chess, and killed fiercely, quickly ending the game.
When Princess Dagon saw Xie Zhiwei's three or two chess pieces, she had nowhere to go, and she couldn't help being shocked. Only then did she know that Xie Zhiwei was just playing with her. Standing up, "Sure enough, the reputation is well-deserved. Another day, when you are free, come and play with your Sister Shuang more often. I want to fight you again!"
Xie Zhi smiled and said, "Duan Xian has something to ask!"
"But it's okay to say!"
"I heard that the eldest princess is very good at riding swords and arrows. I wonder if I can give Duan Xian a lesson or two?"
"Oh, don't tell me you want to go to the battlefield with the king of Chenjun in the future?"
Xie Zhi blushed slightly, and lowered his head slightly, "Duan Xianzhi, at Duan Xian's current age, it's a bit late to learn these things, but one more skill, a little more confidence, and more skills will not overwhelm you."
The future of Western Xinjiang will definitely not be peaceful.
"Okay, I will teach you how to practice martial arts, and you can play chess with me. As for apprenticeship, there is no need!"
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, Princess!"
After lunch, Princess Dagon taught Xie Zhiwei to squat, "From now on, you will get up early every day and face the east to squat, first for a stick of incense, and after you have squatted for a stick of incense easily, I will teach you how to squat." you other."
"Don't underestimate squatting. It's hard work. After squatting for a year, you will know the benefits. You are too young to realize it. In the future, when you reach the age of having children, you will know It's good."
Xie Zhiwei was too shy to speak, and Zheng Jingshuang was also shy, "Mother, what are you talking about with Sister Wei?"
Princess Dagon laughed loudly. Her skin was more radiant than snow, her eyes were like lightning, wanton but not arrogant. It seemed that no matter how time changed, she would always be the noble and flamboyant first princess.
On her alone, there seemed to be the light and shadow of three people.
After noon, Princess Dagon wanted to take a nap, Xie Zhiwei said goodbye to his younger brother, Zheng Jingyan and his sister sent them out of the house.
On the way back, Xie Zhiwei's carriage stopped and went, and her younger brother was drowsy in the carriage. She was a little impatient and asked Uncle Zhu, "What's going on outside?"
Uncle Zhu leaned against the wall of the carriage, and said in a low voice, "Back to the elder girl, I don't know what happened, there are suddenly more refugees on the street!"
Xie Zhiwei looked out through the gap in the curtain of the carriage, and sure enough, he saw ragged, sallow and emaciated refugees with dull eyes along the street.
When she went, she never saw so many refugees. It seemed that these people popped up from the ground in an instant.
Back home, Xie Zhiwei made a special trip to Qijianzhai. Grandfather Xiu Mu was at home. When he heard that Xie Zhiwei was coming, Xie Tiao hurriedly asked Shen Shuang to invite her in.
"Grandfather, my granddaughter just came back from Princess Dagon's mansion, and suddenly many refugees appeared on the road. Is there a disaster?" Xie Zhiwei asked with concern.
Xie Tiao was worrying about money. Fortunately, Fuzhou set up a shipping department in advance. In less than two months, he sent 100,000 taels of silver to solve the emergency. Nowhere.
On the northwest side, the distillery earned more than 200,000 taels of silver in just one cold winter, and gave the emperor's part to the emperor. After adding another 10,000 taels of silver, the rest was sent to the northwest.
This can be regarded as a solution to Xie Tiao's urgent need.
"Haizhou, Xuzhou, Zhengzhou... There are more than ten prefectures in total. It has snowed heavily for more than 20 days, and the snow is more than ten feet deep. Countless people died of freezing, and countless people died of starvation."
Xie Tiao said that tears filled her eyes, Xie Zhiwei was shocked and ashamed, she had no impression of these things in her previous life, at that time, she had already been given a marriage, and every day she was thinking about how to please her husband in the future, putting her mind to it They are all placed in female celebrities, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even the family members don't care about it. How can they care about the national economy and people's livelihood?
On December 20th, the eldest prince got married. The emperor originally wanted to hold a grand ceremony, but Concubine Yun Gui refused because of the snowstorm in more than ten state capitals. But by no means shabby.
Three days later, the second prince and the fourth prince got married on the same day. The emperor saved his troubles. The ministers were so busy congratulating each other and drinking wedding wine. Not to mention, it's extremely embarrassing.
The concubine concubine and the concubine of the fourth prince entered the door on the same day, and the three of them paid homage together. This caused a sensation in the capital, especially since the concubine concubine was Xie Tiao's granddaughter, Xie's family became the object of discussion for a while.
Xie Zhiwei was shocked when he heard about this, but he was able to accept it very quickly.
In the previous life, Xiao Changxuan did everything in order to show Xue Wanqing's face. First, he was childless and became a concubine. Later, after pretending to be serious and serving the bed, he was named a noble concubine because of "serving the bed". After that, he was not satisfied with the concubine's status. The title of the first name, after she was abolished and thrown into the limbo, she was quickly sealed.
Xie Zhi smiled slightly, not taking it seriously.
But Hai Xueyun, who entered the fourth prince's mansion, was different. She never dreamed that she, the dignified concubine, would enter the door together with the concubine concubine, and the three of them would pay homage together.
During the wedding ceremony, she sat on the wedding bed, and no one came to lift her hijab at midnight.
The dowry nanny pushed open the door and came in, a gust of cold wind swept in, Hai Xueyun shivered all over, she raised her head with a little hope in her heart.
Nurse closed the door and came in, whispering, "Fourth Prince's Concubine, servant girl heard that His Royal Highness Fourth Prince has rested there, and will not come tonight."
Hai Xueyun couldn't bear it anymore, tears rolled down like a river breaking a bank, she pulled off her hijab, "Xue Wanqing, I can't spare you!"
