Chapter 1248 Virtue and Selfishness (Part 1)

As the city gate gradually became farther away, the seventeenth prince looked back. Although it was hard to say anything, he was relieved to leave.

He turned around and looked at Cao Yong who was riding with him, and said, "Furuo, thanks to you who woke me up this time, I won't say anything about those empty heads and eight annoyances. What can I do to call me in the future? You must speak up, otherwise I will have the nerve to bother Furuo next time?"

When Cao Yong heard this, he glanced at him. The words before him were still like that; the latter sentence was a little climbing up the pole, revealing the unscrupulous manner of each other when he was a boy.

However, the Seventeenth Prince is like this, and I think it is to resolve the alienation between them.

Cao Yong's grudge against the Seventeenth Prince had almost disappeared, and he had no intention of decisively following the steps and teased a little: "I dare not call Seventeenth Prince. It's better to have a favor. If it can be more interest, it's always good to be a creditor."

When the seventeenth prince heard this, he was so amused and pointed at Cao Yong with a horse whip and said, "From the day I met you, I knew that you are stupid on the outside and cunning on the inside, and you are the one who refuses to suffer the most. Don't worry, human feelings are there, and there is nothing to do in the future. As long as you speak, I will be a cow and a horse for you!"

Cao Yong also smiled and said, "I dare not take it. If you really dare to use the Seventeenth Prince to do his best, and not talk about others, I am afraid that the emperor will refuse to forgive me."

When the Seventeenth Prince heard this, his smile became even louder, but he said, "I am willing to repay you. The emperor is fine, how can I stop you?"

Although the emperor is mean to his brothers, he is very kind to his younger brothers. In addition to the Thirteenth Prince, the Sixteenth Prince and the Seventeenth Prince are also quite favored.

In the past two years, because the Sixteenth Concubine was rejected by the emperor, the emperor was much colder to treat the Sixteenth Prince. Although the Thirteenth Prince became the minister of the Prime Minister and the arm of the emperor, the brothers were more like famous monarchs and wise ministers.

On the contrary, the Seventeenth Prince, the emperor is increasingly concerned about it, and has the intention of coming from behind. Not only are he in charge of more and more responsibilities, he is equivalent to the Seventeenth Prince, but he also has a salary of the prince. The Seventeenth Prince is also highly valued by the palace. Although her mother's family was scolded for the fact that the Party submissive to the Eighth Prince in her early years, the emperor did not implicate her anger, her married daughter.

Cao Yong picked on the corner of his mouth and didn't say anything. He just looked back at the carriage not far away.

The third imperial envoy, Grand Secretary and Minister of War, Mr. Sun Zhu, was sitting in the car.

This time, Cao Yong was also anxious.

It takes several days to travel back and forth, and there are two days to parade there. If nothing unexpected happens, hurry up and go back to Beijing before the Dragon Boat Festival; if there is a little accident, it will be delayed until after the Dragon Boat Festival.

Niu Niu is Cao Yong's junior sister, and in fact he is also the adopted daughter of Chu Yu. In addition, Wen Zhi's side, he is also the eldest son. If he cannot handle the wedding of both of them, everyone will feel regretful.

Although the Seventeenth Prince came to the imperial court to plead with the Queen and entrusted the Seventeenth Prince's childbirth to the Queen, the concerns in his heart were inevitable and he would also look forward to returning early.

The only variable is whether Mr. Sun Zhu's body can withstand this summer's running around.

Although it is just the Grain Grain Season, the weather is getting hotter and the heat is gradually emerging.

The carriage felt even more stuffy. Because of this, the Seventeenth Prince couldn't stand it. After leaving the city gate, he pulled Cao Yong out of the car and rode a horse.

There are more than 200 miles of roads between the capital and Tianjin Wei. Except for the section from Huangcun to Beijing, there is Nanyuan Ranch nearby, the road conditions will be repaired the next year, making the roads easier to walk; the remaining roads are all old roads built in the early years, and the road conditions are not optimistic.

Thinking of this, Cao Yong frowned slightly.

When he was the governor of Zhili, one of the government orders he implemented was to build roads. The main plan was to build the road from Qingyuan to Beijing, Cangzhou to Beijing, and Tianjin Wei to Beijing.

Among them, the road from Qingyuan to Beijing has been repaired, and the road from Cangzhou to Beijing is as far away as Cao Yong knows, and construction has also started this year. Only the road from Tianjin Wei to Beijing has not started for a long time.

It was not because Tang Zhiyu was dissatisfied with the plan left by Cao Yong, but because Tianjin Wei was a military camp since the previous dynasty, with few people, which made the taxes and taxes insufficient.

These are not things that can be changed in just one sentence, and Cao Yong has no choice.

Seeing Cao Yong running away from the gods, the Seventeenth Prince was a little curious and said, "What are you thinking about? But what are you worried about?"

Cao Yong pointed to the road in front of him and said, "After passing Huangcun, the road will be bumpy. Lord Sun's life is already high..."

After hearing Cao Yong's words, the Seventeenth Prince also frowned.

After all, the three of them were all imperial envoys. If Sun Zhu had anything wrong with him, everyone could only wait on the spot, and then sent someone back to Beijing to ask for the decree, and then respected the decree and followed the decree.

"Which one is better?" The Seventeenth Prince had no selfish relationship with Sun Zhu, so naturally there was no talk of Kang Tai who was worried about him, but he was just afraid of delaying his trip.

Cao Yong turned around, glanced at the empty car of the Seventeenth Prince, and said nothing.

Seeing this, the seventeenth prince followed him and looked back, following his sight, and also saw his prince's carriage.

When princes and officials travel, there are regulations on cars and driving.

Among the three, the seventeenth prince is the best driver. The chariot is high and the car is big. The one who drives is also the Nanyuan Royal Horse, and the driving is steady.

The seventeenth prince's eyes lit up at first, and then he thought of something and couldn't help but touch his forehead.

At this moment, Cao Yong had turned around and looked at the green trees on both sides of the road and the green grass, his mood also stretched out.

The depression when he was in the capital was wiped out.

Although it is a bit hot now, it is a good time to eat shrimps, as well as fat clams and oysters...

Orchid Courtyard, go to the room.

Li looked at his wife and said with some concern: "Did you tell Tianyou his father about Sister Hui about it? What does Tianyou his father mean?"

Chu Yu smiled and said, "I told the master that the master said it was all up to the old lady. Hui Jie'er is an honest and caring child. After being delayed until now, we are uncles and aunts, but the Han aunt has always been strong and has made up their own ideas for everything. We didn't have much to say before."

Li showed pity on his face and said, "God is pitiful. Wenqi lost her biological mother when she was young, and she lost her son when she was a child. Every woman has no trust in her family. If she hadn't been for her strong personality, she would have been swallowed up by life long ago."

Chu Yu knew that her mother-in-law had always been sympathetic to the poor and weak, so she just smiled and didn't respond.

Li Shi said, "They are so pitiful. I can't call Sister Chenghui for nothing..."

There are only two people, Jiao Wen and Gu Xian. Although the former has no permanent property, they are newly released Jinshi. According to Tianyou's wishes, Jiao Wen is no problem for the Hanlin Academy Shuji exam next month. Shuji is called "Cuzhou", which shows that his future is very good.

The Jiao clan members had already come to Qingyuan and were planning to buy industries for Jiao Wen. However, Jiao Wen insisted that he had been separated from his family since his great-grandfather's generation, and now he has been out of the five squads and cannot bear the love of his elders so much.

Without the constraints of relatives, as long as you find a suitable wife and rely on her, your future will be brighter.

Such Jiao Wen is willing to put down his posture and marry a business adopted daughter?

Although Han Jiang recognized Li as his adopted mother in the early years in order to seek shelter, he has always kept a distance from Cao's mansion over the years. Except for the New Year or Li's birthday, he often did not come to visit the house easily.

With her temper and character, her future son-in-law will definitely not allow her to take advantage of the Cao family's power to cause trouble for the Cao family.

Although Gu Xian's side had a Jinshi landed, his second son did not need to return to his hometown to support his parents, but stayed in the capital, intending to buy some industries for business.

Influenced by her husband and in addition to Daoxiangcun, Chu Yu did not despise merchants.

If Li really wants to find a son-in-law for Huijie's son among Jiao Gu and others, Chu Yu is optimistic about Gu Xian. But Li's side is obviously optimistic about Jiao Wen.

When she mentioned Jiao Gu and her husband last night, Chu Yu also praised Gu Xian for two words.

Cao Yong heard that his mother and his wife were different from the candidates he liked, so he stopped talking and said nothing. He just said that marriage is a lifelong event for a woman, so wait.

Li said a few words, and saw that his wife smiled and refused to respond. He looked at her, sent the maid down, pulled her face down, and said, "Can you think the Gu boy is better than the Jiao boy?"

Although her husband was not in front of her, Chu Yu would not talk nonsense and hurriedly said, "No, the master said, you need to be cautious and not to be too hasty."

Li said with a slight look, and said, "I know you are guarding against Wen Qi in your heart, afraid that she will really find an official son-in-law. If it is a bad person, and the power of the Cao family makes Tianyou's father feel at ease. But Hui'er is a good girl and Wen Qi's reliance for the rest of her life. How can I watch them and mother-in-law support themselves and become a civilian? Don't worry, the predecessors plant trees and the descendants enjoy the coolness. Whether it is the Thirteenth Master or the Sixteenth Master, they have inherited Wen Qi's favor in their early years. It's just because there is a difference in superiority and inferiority, and the difference in men and women, this favor has never been returned. If Wen Qi finds an official son-in-law, there is no need to rely on the Cao family, and the care of those two people will make him happy for half a lifetime..."

Although Li had already sent the maid down, Chu Yu's face turned red without any reprimand.

She could not sit still, and she stood up with a flushed face, but she was indecisive.

Because Li pointed out her selfish thoughts incisively.

She felt both embarrassed and full of grievance, and before she knew it, her eyes were red.
