Chapter seven hundred and ninety sixth
Chapter 796: "Doing a Kiss"
The Sixteenth Prince is not the one who can hide his words. The next day after the Ninth Prince arrived at the inner hall of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Cao Yong knew about the dialogue between the two princes.
Cao Yong is not ignorant of the Ninth Prince's temptations against Han Jiang's family in recent years, but he did not expect that the Ninth Prince would say so unscrupulously that he wanted to accept Han Jiang's family.
Cao Yong was a little puzzled. The Ninth Prince was not a person who would do whatever he wanted, nor was he a greedy boy. Cao Yong believed that with the Ninth Prince's scheming, if he really wanted Han Jiang, he would never startle the attack and let the Sixteenth Prince discuss with Cao Yong.
"What do you think of Master Sixteen?" Cao Yong asked with a frown.
The sixteenth prince glanced at Cao Yong and said, "I always feel that he is testing your bottom line and also testing me. If he insisted on doing this, Furuo would rather offend the prince than protect Han Jiang?"
Cao Yong was stunned when asked.
Did he be the one who was born? He thought that Kangxi could protect Han Jiang's vitality, but he never thought about how much he was.
"Sixteenth Master, if she is a man and is used by me, will I protect each other or not? Although she is a woman, in my heart, the same man can be used by me is the same." Cao Yong said carefully.
When the Sixteenth Prince heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "You don't need to separate your relationship. Since you sent her to my subordinates to do business, I will naturally take care of her. It's just that not only Brother Jiu, but also mentioned this, what are you planning."
The sixteenth prince said, and was also guessing the intention of the ninth prince. He had his disciples in Jiangnan, so what kind of beauty was in Beizi's mansion? Although Han Jiang's appearance looked better in the eyes of outsiders, it was not rare in the eyes of their prince. There were fewer beauties he had seen since childhood?
"What can I do? I'm afraid the drunkard's intention is not to drink. Let me tell you the Sixteenth Prince first. If the Han Jiang family's bank's responsibilities are not kept firm, I will go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to ban the ban. Even if the responsibilities are kept firm, the Ninth Prince's Mansion will be a cheaper place to do the tobacco errands when I want to go back to catch the bank." Cao Yong thought for a while and replied.
Speaking of this, Cao Yong felt a little regretful.
When you follow the local customs, do you live a good life? Forgot these four words. Even if Han Jiang has some ability, it is just a crime of possessing a treasure in a woman.
The ugly greed heart of people in the world will never be pitiful because of the miserable fate of Han Jiang.
The sixteenth prince touched his chin, thought carefully, slowly stretched his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "If Han Jiang is younger, I will recognize a fucking daughter and set a name, which will ruin the Ninth brother's mind. Otherwise, I will quit my aunt. Even the emperor, when I hear that Han Jiang is protected by her, I will treat him a little differently."
Seeing Cao Yong hesitating, the sixteenth prince said, "If Fu doesn't think about letting Han Jiang avoid the bank, that would be what the hell would be. It would be just a woman, and if you use it, what's the big deal? If it were a man, you would have to pay attention to raise a ungrateful wolf. The man of Jiu Ge is used to being a greedy man, and he can't retreat."
After talking about this, the sixteenth prince mentioned that the ninth prince wanted to go to Henan Prefecture and the second concubine of Xian'an Palace were seriously ill.
The Sixteenth Prince had already felt a little tired and said, "Furuo, the Fourteenth Brother has become more and more enthusiastic about others recently. How should he act?"
"Be patient for a few more days, just be careful not to misunderstand that person." Cao Yong stretched out his slap and made a gesture.
When the sixteenth prince heard this, his eyes turned around and said, "I just bought some sandalwood and planned to send it to Rehe to pray for my mother. It seems that it should also be sent to the Fourth Brother's Mansion..."
Not to mention how the Ninth Prince waited for Rehe's order, how the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital was trembling in Xian'an Palace.
Cao Yong went back and told Chu Yu about Han Jiang's difficulties. Chu Yu also agreed with the proposal of the Sixteenth Prince.
A few days later, on the first day of June, Chu Yu took a bus to Haidian Garden and mentioned Han Jiang's meaning to his mother-in-law.
It was just a false reputation for the outside world. When Li thought that it was not easy for a woman to be alone, he felt pity. He packed up a pair of bracelets and a collar as a meeting gift, and said that he would recognize his next fucking daughter.
When he returned to the mansion, Chu Yu sent someone to take Han Jiang over and talk about the purpose of it.
Han Jiang's time has been a little nervous, knowing that when he left Daoxiang Village and took over the errand of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he lost the protection of the Cao family.
She seemed to understand why Cao Yong recommended Zheng Woxue and his wife to the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion.
In a place where the capital is full of powerful people, the status of ordinary families is not as good as that of slaves in the prince's mansion.
It was not her wish to remarry again, and it was not her wish to join the prince as a slave. She felt miserable and could not tell others. She could only secretly hate that she was not a man, but was eventually rootless duckweed.
In the name of Li, she is her amulet.
Thinking that he was just a merchant, but Cao Yong and his eldest grandmother were able to protect each other in every way, Han Jiang felt ashamed and grateful.
She took the bracelet and collar, and the next day she went to Haidian with Chu Yu to pay tribute to Li and Cao Yin.
Cao Yin and Li's husband accepted her kowtow, and since then the Cao family has a family of kids.
In June, when relatives had social engagements, Chu Yu took Han Jiang with him. In less than half a month, the powerful and powerful in the capital knew that there was an adopted daughter in the Earl's Mansion.
Han Jiang's other family had nothing but money. She didn't want to take advantage of the Cao family for nothing, so she gave 40% of the shares of Daoxiangcun to Chu Yu as a gift to recognize her relatives.
Chu Yu just thanked her for her hard work in Daoxiang Village a few years ago, so she was willing to help, so she would not take advantage of her. Not only did she return it, she also gave her the house deed and land deeds of the house where Han Jiang's current residence.
Han Jiang knew that this was Chu Yu's dowry, so how could he ask for it for nothing? He bought another four-entry mansion and gave it to Chu Yu as a gift.
The Ninth Prince left Beijing at the end of June and went to Henan Prefecture. I don’t know what he thought of when Han Jiang recognized his relatives, and there was no follow-up after he mentioned it.
The sixteenth prince was inexplicably disturbed and pulled Cao Yong and said, "I thought he was going to sarcastically, why didn't there be any movement? Furuo, what did he say he was trying to do this?"
It is said that a woman's heart is a needle under the sea. The ninth prince's heart is no less difficult to guess than a woman's.
Even Cao Yong felt something was wrong. According to the Ninth Prince's previous personality, when he met Cao Yong, he had to deal with it. Now, when he occasionally met, he just nodded or hummed with a smile. He looked very happy, but there was no shame in being ruined by someone.
On the side of the 16th Prince, he found that several officials selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs were more respectful to Han Jiang. Even if he was just a relative, the Han Jiang family, who had the Earl's Mansion as the reliance, was a world of difference with the merchant Han Jiang family.
The sixteenth prince was unwilling to be confused. After thinking for two days, he said to Cao Yong: "It's not that the ninth brother really felt pity for Han Jiang, right? If you make a fuss, you will have nothing to do with Han Jiang."
Speaking of this, he looked at Cao Yong and felt shocking. Understanding their nature in this way and adding fuel to this is considered to be aware of oneself and enemy.
It seems that his emperor brother was previously rumored as the "think tank" of the "Eighth Master Party" by the outside world, which is not groundless.
As a man, Cao Yong was quite strange in his heart.
Han Jiang needs others to protect him in front of him, and this feeling is a bit mysterious. However, he also felt a little regretful. If the Ninth Prince was not a prince, but an ordinary man, and could recognize Han Jiang's wisely, it might be a good marriage.
In the current situation of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, with distinct hierarchies, how many people can not despise people as merchants?
It turned out that Han Jiang was a guest at the Cao family, but now he has become half of his family. Li was also happy to see her. In addition, she was neither humble nor arrogant to others, and she has been in the business world for many years but has not lost her virginity. Li became more and more happy to see her.
In private, she had already talked to Cao Yin for a few times. The woman always had to find a home. Otherwise, she would find a good family for her goddaughter among her relatives and friends.
Cao Yin listened to his wife's nagging, but just smiled and didn't comment.
Seeing that her husband did not object, Li began to pay attention and asked someone to ask for the right candidate. However, even if he wanted to re-string, he had to pay attention to his background. The remaining crooked people were just to cling to the power of the Cao family and the wealth of the Han Jiang family.
Li is a woman from a house, so she naturally has some protection for her shortcomings. She recognizes Han Jiang as her daughter and thinks that she really thinks that her family is watching. After hearing that she is picky about Han Jiang, she can only feel a little frustrated and extinguishes her intention of "marrying a daughter". She thought about returning to the city, and took Han Jiang to stay in Cao's house for some time, looking at whether she could choose an honest person to "recruit a husband".
Everyone in the second house knows that there is an extra work of doing her daughter.
In late June, on the day when Cao Song's second daughter was full moon, Han Jiang followed Chu Yu to the East Mansion to congratulate him.
Cao Song has always regarded his brother as the leader and is careless, so he naturally would not think about why he had sex with his relatives. Cao Xiang and Cao Fu were both thinking about the rumors that his cousin was "fearing inside".
There are many troubles in front of the widow, and the rumors about Cao Yong and Han Jiang have never stopped over the years. After all, in the eyes of the world, a young and rich widow, who can be honest in front of you?
Nowadays, the "little lover" has not become an outdoor room, nor has he been taken into the Cao Mansion as a concubine, and has become a relative who is neither superior nor inferior. Cao Xiang nor Cao Fu, thinking of his cousin-law who is usually kind to others, he feels that the princess's methods in the royal family are indeed extraordinary.
Only Jinghui has received favor from the eldest son, and knows that his brother and sister-in-law are both people who pity the poor and the weak. She was like this when she was back then, and Han Jiang, who had no trust in his relatives.
Therefore, when she saw Han Jiang, she did not look at and explore, but only had the understanding and friendship of both the world.
With her in front, the fourth grandmother Chunhua and the fifth grandmother Su Xin have less alienated Han Jiang and are more polite.
Chu Yu was still worried that they looked down on Han Jiang's background, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw them like this.
There are many people outside who have thoughts like Cao Xiang and Cao Fu. They are the Seventh Concubines from the Chun Palace who have made a special trip to pick Chu Yu up because of this matter and ask her if she had encountered any problems or grievances. This is how she was like this.
Chu Yu was stunned when he heard it, and repeatedly explained that he only looked at Han Jiang's loneliness before pulling him.
Whether Qi Fujin believed it or not, Chu Yu felt a little wronged. When he returned to the mansion, he complained to Zijing: "Sister Zijing, is it really jealous and ruthless person in the eyes of outsiders?"
"Grandma is just kind-hearted, why bother with these gossips? People's hearts are sinister, and few people are willing to praise others' goodness. They must make others out of nothing. Grandma has a kind heart and good character. If others can't pick out something, they will make some of them out of nothing. Grandma should not take it to heart." Zijing advised with a smile.
Chu Yu was just complaining. After hearing the words of Zijing, he knew that he didn't have to pay attention to these things. What's wrong with the name of "jealousy"? It's always more comfortable than those "virtuous" lives.
It is common for people outside to give gifts and beauties to children. Because she is notorious for being "jealous", the Cao family saves this trouble.
Thinking of this, Chu Yu laughed and began to discuss her husband's birthday with Amethyst.
Cao Yong is twenty-five years old this year, which is both a half-life and a zodiac year, so there is no need for previous years.
As Zi Jing listened to Chu Yu's words, she sighed in her heart. Could it be that the big grandmother's enthusiasm for "recognizing relatives" really just follows her husband's wishes and feels a little pity for Han Jiang?
Cao Yong doesn't like beauty and hates trouble the most, but Han Jiang, who has known him for more than ten years, is ultimately different.
Even Amethyst could see this. As a wife, Chu Yu could not see this...
Forbidden City, the main hall of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The sixteenth prince's eyes were shiny, almost dancing, and said to Cao Yong: "Furuo, I chose the day to open the bank. On the second day of July, the next day of your birthday."
He has been devoted to the bank in the past few months, and now he has finally achieved some results, so how can he not be happy?
Cao Yong calculated the day, and there were not a few days left, and said, "Her Sixteenth Master has sent someone to distribute those brochures?"
The sixteenth prince nodded with a smile and said, "I've sent it. All the major yamen in the capital, as well as the major guild halls in the Qianmen, and the major chambers of commerce registered in Shuntian Mansion have been sent out." Speaking of this, he was a little nervous and rubbed his hands and said, "It's really worrying. What if it's a bad situation?"
After the previous agreement, the interest on deposits of "Daqing Bank" was set at 7% monthly interest and 9% annual interest; the monthly interest on loans was 10% monthly interest and 10% annual interest.
Although the interest rate is much lower than that of private usury, it does not violate the law without distinction of identity.
"Did Master Sixteenth asked the Interior Office?" Cao Yong asked.
The sixteenth prince blinked and said, "I've given an order and ordered them to open an account at the bank within three days of opening the business, and then the Internal Affairs Office will pay the salary and directly transfer it to the account."
Cao Yong calculated the staff of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in his heart and smiled, "What else is the Sixteenth Master worried about? He has enough support for the store. He can't get fat for a day, and it will be fine after waiting for a long time."
Having said that, Cao Yong actually made plans. Those who could not enter and exit the bank were officials, which would scare the merchants to stop outside the door.
He had already told Cao Fang that the salaries of the major shopkeepers and masters of Daoxiang Village will be directly transferred to the "Da Qing Bank" account in the future. As for those apprentices and friends, there is no need to make trouble.
After all, unlike later society, the customers set by the Qing Bank were mainly scholars and merchants...
Not to mention how the Sixteenth Prince and Cao Yong waited for the opening day, the major royal palaces in Beijing also received posts about the opening of the "Qing Bank".
Thinking of having their own shares in it, everyone has a little more motivation. The most joyful one is the female family members.
