Chapter 268 The Princess Marries (9)

No matter how much the Jin family complains, the power of running the family is still in the hands of Ding Laixi. She is a strong woman. She has supported the Jin family on her own for so many years, but now she has made one wrong step and made the family a mess, although it is not entirely her responsibility. , but as a parent, she also has unshirkable responsibilities.

Ding Laixi knelt all night in front of her ancestors' memorial tablets. This time, except for her biological son, no one else came to persuade and beg her to get up. Over the course of one night, she replayed her life in the Jin family over and over again. After thinking about it several times, I felt chilled by the family's reaction and felt guilty for delaying my son's future.

When the sun rose the next day, she had already made a decision. When this crisis was over, she would take off the burden of the Jin family and take her son to live in another house!

It was her fault for not teaching Jin Duofu well, and she was ashamed of her deceased wife. But no matter what, the two sons of the wife now have families and businesses. She has been worthy of the Jin family by holding the Jianjin title for so many years. She You can’t continue to wrong your son because of yourself! Looking at his wife's memorial tablet, Ding Laixi choked and said: "Sister, Laixi promised you to take care of Duofu and Duolu when they grow up, and hand over the Jin family to them. When this matter is over, I will give the keys and Give the account book to Duofu! I can no longer look at Duofu Duolu, please don’t blame me..."

Ding Laixi wiped her tears and stood up slowly. Her legs were sore and numb after kneeling all night. She staggered as soon as she stood up. Jin Duoshou hurriedly rushed in to help her.

Ding Laixi patted Jin Duoshou's hand and asked with a smile: "Duoshou, have you heard everything?"

Jin Duoshou lowered his eyes and nodded, "Actually, it was the eldest brother who proposed to buy Jinshan, which caused the family's financial problems. At that time, everyone had no objection to marrying the princess. I was the one to marry him, but the second brother sneaked in on his own. I became the consort in the palace, and now if something happens, they will blame everything on my mother, I am not worth it!"

Ding Laixi sighed and turned to look at the memorial tablet of the ancestors of the Jin family, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Mom is really a little tired this time. When the Jianjin ship passes the crisis, I will take you out of the house to live alone. Then if you want to practice martial arts, you can practice martial arts, and if you want to practice writing, it doesn’t matter if you want to do business. If you marry a virtuous wife and give birth to a fat grandson, mother will be happy. "

Jin Duoshou pursed his lips uncomfortably, "Mom, don't make fun of me. The news about buying the wrong Jinshan has been spread out. Now the Young Master has signed a contract with another company. Those big customers are likely to make trouble. Mom, you Is there really a way? If not, just reduce the industry, but don’t hold on.”

"Don't worry, Mom has a solution. Don't worry about these things. Just pack up the things you need to bring when you have time. It will be much more convenient when we leave." Ding Laixi smiled reassuringly and held his hand slowly. Go back to your room slowly.

After Li Shimin went to court, he and Li Chengqian finished approving the memorial and praised him with satisfaction. The ministers who taught Li Chengqian were all carefully selected by the original owner to have real talents and practical knowledge. There was no doubt about Li Chengqian's ability. During this period, Li Shimin personally taught him the way to be a king, and alienated other princes to ensure his status as prince, allowing him to serve as the prince. Li Shimin became increasingly relaxed in front of him, losing all the precautions he had when they first met.

Gao Fu served more tea for the father and son, and Li Shimin smiled and said: "There are not many government affairs today. Is the emperor interested in having a chat with me?"

Li Chengqian stood up and walked to the side hall with him, "My father is a superb chess player. I wish I could have the honor to play against my father!"

Li Shimin smiled and patted him on the shoulder. The two walked out of the main hall. Li Shimin saw someone pulling in the distance. With a glance of his consciousness, he recognized that the woman holding the box was Zhaoyang's mother-in-law Ding Laixi. , begging the young eunuch to send a message to the emperor.

After thinking about the things in the plot, Li Shimin casually asked Gao Fu behind him, "What's going on over there?"

Gao Fu stepped forward with an unhappy expression and said: "Back to the emperor, it is the second wife of the Jin family who is asking to see the emperor. The servant has already said that the emperor is busy with government affairs and will not see anyone, but she has not given up and has been unwilling to leave."

Li Shimin stopped and looked over there. When Li Chengqian saw this, he immediately smiled and said, "My father has something to do, so I will leave first. I will ask my father for chess skills another day when I have free time."

"Well," Li Shimin nodded, and ordered Gao Fu to get a chess book from the bookshelf in the side hall, "Chengqian, you always like to study chess skills. My father has an orphan copy here. Let me take it to you and read it."

Li Chengqian happily took the chess record with both hands, bowed and left.

The chess records were naturally collected by the Xiaoyao Sect. After Li Shimin discovered that Li Chengqian loved chess, he specially selected the most exquisite chess records for him. Li Chengqian was more like an apprentice to him, but when he traveled through time in the past, all his disciples were taught martial arts. This time he taught political affairs.

Ding Laixi heard the commotion here and anxiously wanted to step forward to speak, but was afraid of offending Long Yan, so he was quite unable to move forward or retreat.

Li Shimin waved his hand and ordered: "Gao Fu, go and bring her over. I don't know what happened to the Jin family. If it has anything to do with Zhaoyang, I must take care of it."

After saying that, he walked into the side hall. The palace maid immediately brought hot tea and cakes, and two other palace maids stood on both sides, gently fanning themselves.

Ding Laixi held a brocade box and followed Gao Fu on her knees to salute, "Ding Laixi, a civilian woman, is here to see the Emperor."

"Pingshen. Why does Mrs. Jin want to see me?" Li Shimin asked calmly after taking a sip of tea.

Ding Laixi tightened her hand on the brocade box, gritted her teeth and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, this is the luminous cup collected by Jin Li, the mother-in-law of the commoner woman. It was a gift from the late emperor!"

Li Shimin put his right hand on the table and tapped it. In his memory, he actually found the promise left by the late emperor. It was simply baffling! The late emperor fell in love with Mrs. Jin at first sight when he was young, but Mrs. Jin refused to enter the palace and insisted on marrying a businessman. The late emperor appreciated her loyalty to his feelings, so he gave her a luminous cup, which is rare in the world, saying that no matter when she is in trouble, she will always be there. You can use the luminous cup to ask the late emperor or his descendants for help.

After Gao Fu inspected the brocade box and the luminous cup inside, he held it in front of Li Shimin with both hands. Li Shimin looked at it casually and asked, "What do you want, Mrs. Jin?"

Ding Lai was pleased to see that Li Shimin's face remained as usual and he was not angry because of the late emperor's affair. He breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "The civilian woman made an improper decision before, which put the Jin family's property in jeopardy. Now the young master chooses Shang as the palace." I want to make goldware, and the commoner woman recommends herself to the Jin family as a goldsmith, asking the emperor to grant her permission." After saying this, the sleeves she held in her hands were soaked with sweat. After all, the young master had already chosen another gold shop as the imperial merchant. , what she said was really unreasonable, but in order to identify the gold number, she didn't care much, she could only take a gamble!

"The Jin family wants to become an imperial merchant?" Li Shimin didn't wait for her reply, and continued: "Jin Duofu has no talent and virtue, and is short-sighted. He can't even remember the complete procedures for making gold tools; Jin Duolu is illiterate in both civil and military affairs and is obsessed with it all day long. In astrology and metaphysics, he thinks he is righteous and does not pay attention to the princess and the royal family at all; Jin Duoshou is not good at martial arts and deceives his family. Although he has some talent for business, no one has cultivated him. Mrs. Jin, you said, the Jin family has it. How can we take care of the things in the palace?"

"Public woman...folk woman..." Ding Laixi did not expect that the emperor knew the situation of the Jin family very well, so he spoke cautiously, but did not know what to say.

Li Shimin waved his hand, "If you really follow what you said and let the Jin family become royal merchants, I'm afraid the Jin family will decline faster. Working for the royal family is not just about benefits. If something is not done correctly, the punishment will be doubled! With Jin Judging from Duofu's past words and deeds, it is very likely that he will cut corners, which will be a serious crime of confiscation. "

Ding Laixi trembled and wanted to say that Jin Duofu would not do that, but when she remembered that Jin Duofu bought Jinshan into Ganshan, she lost confidence. Previously, he only wanted to use the name of Huangshang to deal with the big customers who urged and canceled orders, but he forgot that Jin Duofu couldn't take the lead. If he really did something wrong in a moment of confusion in the future, there would be no second Ye Guang. Cup to the rescue!

Li Shimin saw her dejected look and said: "The affairs of the previous dynasty were reviewed and completed by the officials of the previous dynasty. Although Sun Guifei has two rights of say in the harem, she cannot control the Young Mansion Supervisor! The affairs of the Jin family, I will grant a gold mountain to the three consorts. Whether the Jianjin Hao can continue depends on the ability of the descendants of the Jin family. Please step back. "

Ding Laixi bowed and left with weak hands and feet. It was not until he left the palace that he realized that his hands and feet were cold. The emperor specifically mentioned Sun Guifei. The emperor must have known about their transaction with Sun Guifei. Then... the conflict between the Jin family and the princess It must be impossible to hide it from the emperor. Thinking that several members of his family often talked about the fierce and uncultured Princess of the Tang Dynasty, his eyes suddenly darkened!

Li Shimin waited until she left before picking up the luminous cup and looking at it carefully. The color was transparent, the shape was exquisite, and it showed a faint halo in the dark. It was very beautiful. But the spiritual energy contained in the jade is very weak. Although it is rare, it can only be used for viewing. It is of no use. It is not comparable to the good things collected in her space. "Send it to Concubine Cui, I remember she mentioned it. "

At that time, many people in the harem knew about this luminous cup. Which favored concubine wouldn't want it? The late emperor pretended not to know anything about it, and never took out the luminous cup again. Everyone thought the late emperor wanted to keep it for himself, so they all gave up. Concubine Cui was one of them. Later she became a concubine and occasionally recalled her youth. I would sigh a word or two about the past at that time, and it was just a good time to give it to her so that she could end her regret.

Ding Laixi returned to Jin's house tiredly. Everyone who was chatting and laughing suddenly turned pale when they saw her. She smiled reluctantly and said: "Mother-in-law, why are you all here? Just in time, I have good news to tell you. The emperor promised to give us a gold mountain, so that the Gold Appraisal No. will not have a gold source problem, okay? Get through this crisis safely.”

Jin Duoshou breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly helped her sit down to rest. Everyone was surprised and asked her how she did it. Mrs. Jin suddenly thought of something, her face changed, and she narrowed her eyes and said: "Where is the luminous cup? Are you? Take the luminous cup to see the emperor? "

Ding Laixi smiled and nodded, "Yes, mother-in-law, the emperor does know about this luminous cup. After seeing it, he decided to help the Jin family."

"What? Why did you use my luminous cup without consulting me beforehand?!"

Ding Laixi raised his head in surprise and saw Mrs. Jin glaring at her angrily.
