Chapter 194 New Tea

The storyteller downstairs just arrived. He was stunned and opened his mouth.

"There are many stars in the sky and the moon is unknown, and there are many people on the earth who are unhappy."

"Dear gentlemen, young and old, please don't blame me for my clumsy tongue, nonsense, and untrue words..."

"Speaking of which, there was a family in the previous dynasty..."

Lu Qingluan ate snacks, drank tea, and happily lay in front of the window and looked down.

In the room, shopkeeper Li had just entered and was holding tea and talking to Lu Shege while drinking tea.

"I heard that the third prince was fine. Even Concubine Zhou made a scene and didn't make much noise. Instead, she gave Queen Shen an excuse to ask your majesty to allow the third prince to leave the palace and build a mansion. The queen also said that she only has such a son. , something happened as soon as she entered the capital. Your Majesty will have many sons and grandsons in the future. She may only have one son, the third prince, in this life, and she doesn’t want to give away a man with gray hair to a man with black hair."

"In this way, Your Majesty does not dare to stop you even if you want to. Empress Shen has three sons. The eldest son and the second son have been smart since childhood and are both civil and military. The eldest son died protecting Your Majesty, and the second son died in an unknown way. Now the three sons The prince was injured when he entered the capital, so it is understandable that the queen asked to leave the palace to establish a palace for the third prince."

Shopkeeper Li carefully stroked the tea cup in his hand and sighed softly, "I thought the noble concubine was a powerful one this week, but I didn't expect that the queen is the one who is better. It seems that your majesty has made the third prince the king of Qin. After the Lantern Festival, King Jie Qin will move out of the palace and establish his own palace."

"Actually, this may not be without Concubine Zhou's contribution."

Lu Sheige picked up the hot tea and blew it gently, then put it down again, "If His Majesty is willing to establish a prince, the third prince does not have to leave the palace at all. The fact that the third prince leaves the palace and establishes a prince does not mean that he is telling everyone that your majesty prefers the fourth prince. It is just that the fourth prince So young after all..."

Even if I don’t explain the rest clearly, everyone knows it.

Regardless of whether he is a direct descendant or a eldest son, the third prince is a well-deserved candidate for the crown prince.

As for the fourth prince, although his birth was not bad, he could not compare with the third prince.

Your Majesty has been slow to establish a heir, so he is waiting for the fourth prince to grow up.

"However, His Majesty has been reluctant to establish a crown prince. It would be better for the third prince to leave the palace and establish a palace." Shopkeeper Li sighed slightly, "Although Queen Shen is protecting you in the harem, it is Concubine Zhou who has been following your Majesty in the past few years. , I’m afraid that Concubine Zhou will stretch her hand too far, and the third prince’s body will always be weak, and he will be seriously injured..."

At this point, the stunned people downstairs clapped again: "I dare to ask all the distinguished guests, the children born from ordinary wives are not divided into legitimate children, so are they not divided into elders and younger ones?"

Shopkeeper Li and Lu Shege turned their heads and looked at the lively people downstairs.

The story we are telling today is about a boy from a farm family who originally came from an ordinary family. He married the daughter of a scholar and fell in love with him very much. The scholar had only this only daughter. His family was wealthy and he brought many gold, silver, jewelry, farms, and shops as a dowry, which made this peasant family famous. The boy suddenly became rich.

If that's all it is, this book is just about fun and has no attraction.

A rich farm boy opened a shop in the city, and his luck turned out to be very good. Within a few years, he became the richest man in the land. He was also appreciated by the county magistrate, who promised his distant cousin to him as his equal wife.

This cousin was born with a beautiful face and was deeply loved by the county magistrate's cousin. She lived in the prefecture for several years and got to know many local businessmen with the prefect's wife.

With this capable wife, the farm boy has become even more powerful, and his business has spread all over the surrounding towns. His family has thousands of hectares of fertile land and countless shops.

The first wife gave birth to a son early that year. Although the son was smart, he was weak. Since his wife gave birth to a healthy son, the eldest son was not liked by his biological father.

As the story goes, it's just that the two wives and children of this farm boy's family were fighting over the family property.

This story is not mainstream at the moment, but because of its novelty, the fight between the poor wife and the second wife, the fight between the eldest son and the second son, and the business experience of the farm boy, it makes people fascinated.

.

Shopkeeper Li stopped talking and listened with Lu Shengge for a long time before letting out a faint sigh of relief.

"Your story..."

He wanted to say that something was inappropriate, but when he thought of the current fight between the Queen and Concubine Zhou in the palace, he felt that it was very suitable for the current situation, so it was no wonder that it was so popular.

"That's all." Shopkeeper Li sighed, "Yesterday, the third son of the Song family came to you again, asked for your home address, and said that he wanted to send you an invitation. His family is holding a plum blossom banquet on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, you can

Got the invitation?"

"Got it."

Lu Sheige's expression remained as usual, "Song Yunfei personally delivered it yesterday. Not only did he invite me, he also invited my parents and eldest sister and brother-in-law."

"What about you?" Shopkeeper Li knew he shouldn't say it, but couldn't help but tell him, "I feel that with the Song family's family background, it's rare to be able to take care of our business on weekdays. If I go to a banquet, I'm afraid that my family background doesn't match.

, if you go, you will be ignored by others, it is better not to go. When the time comes, I will prepare a heavy gift, you can just send someone to deliver it, but it is better not to go."

Lu Sheige's eyes fell on the tea cup in his hand. The steaming hot tea that was originally steaming to warm his hands and heart had already cooled down, and when he held it in his hand, he felt a biting chill.

This Song Yunfei has already reached his prime, but he still behaves and speaks like a child.

He went above and beyond by sending this post to Lu Xiange, but he also invited Lu Quan and his wife and Chen Ping'an and his wife.

With the Lu family and the Chen family having only a small amount of assets, it is already rare to have the blessing of the prince of the Marquis in the capital, yet they even come to attend a banquet.

Even if it does, I won't be able to get in, let alone enjoy the plum blossoms and have a feast.

Lu Sheige threw away the cold tea and ordered Chunhua to order a new pot of tea: "I will go and have a look at that time. As for my parents and eldest sister and brother-in-law, they are all honest people, so forget it."

When the new tea was brought in, shopkeeper Li raised his hand to take the teapot and respectfully poured a cup of new tea for Lu Sheige: "Then, have you figured out where to go?"

Lu Sheige put his five fingers together into a fist, with his palms facing down. He tapped his five fingers on the table three times at the same time: "Go back and ask Brother Jin Ming. If he goes, I will go with Brother Jin Ming."

Tang Jinming's father, Tang Qi, and Song Yunfei's father and uncle were all sworn brothers of Chen Quan. They followed Chen Quan in the south and north, and finally Chen Quan ascended the throne.

Tang Qi was granted the title of Duke of the Town. Although the Song brothers and the two princes seemed to be favored, they were far inferior to those of the Tang family.

Based on the friendship between the Tang and Song families, if the Song family had a banquet, the Tang family would definitely invite them and they would definitely come.

"That's fine."

Shopkeeper Li breathed a sigh of relief, "We are a businessman's family after all. If we go rashly, I'm afraid we will inevitably be wronged. Follow Mr. Tang, even if some people look down on your birth, because of Mr. Tang's face, no one will dare to do anything.

.”

As he spoke, he warned uneasily: "When the time comes, you should just follow Mr. Tang and not move around at will. After all, this is the Marquis Mansion. If you meet someone who is not easy to talk to, I'm afraid they will make things difficult for you."

Lu Sheige knew that Shopkeeper Li was concerned about him, so he nodded quickly: "Yes, I know."

Lu Quan and his wife were very kind to her, but there were some things she could only discuss with Shopkeeper Li.

Fortunately, shopkeeper Li treated her like a nephew in the family and was very attentive.

Regardless of whether shopkeeper Li is good because of the relationship he has had over the past few years, or because he can get greater benefits from her.

None of this matters.

There are no eternal friends, but there are eternal interests.

She and Shopkeeper Li are now in the same boat and can only stand together through thick and thin.
