Chapter 232 The Crown Princess can be decided by default
This street mainly sells Liao goods, such as ginseng, fur, and Dongzhu.
After the Jiannu rebellion, the source of goods of these Liao goods shops in Beijing was naturally affected, and the business could not be done without the source of goods.
Some of the acquisition sites in Fushun and Qinghe and other places directly asked Jiannu to steal all the secrets. People were either killed or captured to Jianzhou, which was so miserable.
Therefore, after learning about the Liaodong victory, the shopkeepers of the Liao goods shop asked the guys to buy firecrackers.
Without any other intentions, the officials were angry for them and ruthlessly dealt with the small braids of Jianzhou. Otherwise, if they could make trouble, the transactions on this street would be ruined.
People in the street were setting off firecrackers, and the sound was imagined. The "bang bang bang" made the father and daughter's ears almost deaf.
The smell of gunpowder around the street is also very deep.
"Bao, go in and don't call it blown up."
The father was afraid of blowing his daughter, so he reached out and pulled her daughter in, and then dusted the firecrackers that were falling on her daughter's hair.
After a while, the firecrackers in front were blown up. The daughter named Baozhu let go of her hands and breathed a sigh of relief. Then she asked her father curiously, "Dad, today is not a festival, why are they setting off their whips everywhere?"
The father-in-law smiled: "Baozhu, have you not heard Eunuch Chen say it before?"
Baozhu was a little confused: "What did Eunuch Chen say?" When her father was drinking tea with Eunuch Chen and she talked about things, she felt bored and secretly ran out to play with Li Kun, the young eunuch under Eunuch Chen. She didn't know what her father and Eunuch Chen said.
The father pointed to the northeast: "Your godfather won a great victory in Liaodong and killed Jiannu, so everyone here is happy for your godfather."
"Ah? I have such a powerful godfather?" Baozhu was very surprised. When did a godfather appear?
Suddenly, she seemed to remember when she was with her father outside the gate when she was a child, and it seemed that there was a godfather who gave her four beads and a book.
What's the name of godfather?
Baozhu thought about it and felt that his godfather, whom he had not seen again for many years, should be named Wei and Sheren, because the book he gave him was called "The Biography of the Little Figure of Wei Sheren".
There are also illustrations in the book. The godfather in the picture is very handsome, but Baozhu always feels that the person in the picture is not the same person as the person she met when she was a child.
I don’t know if I read it wrong or if I haven’t remembered it for a long time.
"Silly daughter, you don't remember it for only a few years? I'm so sad that people even said that my Baozhu is smart." The one who is father is naturally Zhang Guoji.
In fact, Zhang Guoji has not seen Eunuch Wei for many years. Over the years, Eunuch Chen has been taking care of Wei Fuji's business. Many times Eunuch Chen wants to take Zhang Guoji to meet Eunuch Wei, but every time Eunuch Wei misses to leave Beijing, so the two of them have never seen each other for more than eight years.
But Eunuch Wei always remembers that his father and daughter were both father and daughter. During the holidays, Eunuch Chen specially sent a gift, or sent a message from Eunuch Wei, asking how old Baozhu's goddaughter is, how tall he has grown, whether he has been picky, whether he has studied, and what he has read.
Everything is very detailed, Eunuch Wei, the godfather, really takes Baozhu to heart.
After Baozhu was 12 years old, Eunuch Wei gave Baozhu some utensils from girls every year. Rouge and water powder were all top-quality products from Jiangnan. Most people in Beijing have nowhere to buy them.
Last year, Eunuch Wei asked someone to give Baozhu a paper pad called "Hushubao", saying that it was a woman product that the Neiting Baochao Department had just innovated in Jiangnan. Now it is just a trial sale, which is specially used for wealthy families in Jiangnan and noble families in Nandu.
I heard that the reputation is very good and the supply is in short supply.
At that time, Zhang Guoji felt a little embarrassed because Baozhu was a daughter after all, and he would definitely not have thought of him as a father in every aspect. At the same time, he also felt that Eunuch Wei seemed to care too much about Baozhu and even thought of his daughter's menstruation.
But then I thought about it that Eunuch Wei was the eunuch who was close to the king. What bad thoughts could he have about Baozhu? It was completely care for Baozhu.
However, Zhang Guoji never talked about these things with his daughter.
Because he was afraid that his daughter would become vain when she knew that she had a godfather who was a big eunuch.
Yesterday, Zhang Guoji, who was settled in the shop, got a message from Eunuch Chen, who asked him to go to Zuoanmen Maritime Affairs Office and the Inner Supervision Office today, and specifically asked him to bring his daughter Baozhu with him.
Zhang Guoji didn't know anything, but Eunuch Chen had been taking care of his father and daughter over the years. In addition, Wei Fuji still had a large share in the transaction of Eunuch Wei, so Zhang Guoji did not dare to neglect. After exposing the matter in the shop to the people under him in the morning, he took his daughter Baozhu and hired a carriage to Zuo'anmen.
After arriving at the local area, Eunuch Chen introduced an old man to Zhang Guoji, saying that he was the eldest grandson of the Emperor of the East Palace, a partner of the Grandpa of the Great Wei.
When Zhang Guoji heard that the other party was the eldest companion of the Emperor Changsun of the Eastern Palace, he was really stunned and reacted and quickly saluted the other party.
The old man who was called the Great Wei Dynasty by Eunuch Chen was a real person, with a simple face. He smiled and said a few words to Zhang Guoji, staring at Baozhu, nodding from time to time, as if he was very satisfied.
This made Zhang Guoji confused. He wanted to ask the Grandpa Wei what he was doing, but he was embarrassed to speak.
After a while, the Great Wei Dynasty told Eunuch Chen that there was something else in the palace and he went back first. Eunuch Chen quickly got up and saw him off, very respectfully.
After Eunuch Chen sent the person away, he came back to tell Zhang Guoji that the old man in the Great Wei just now was Eunuch Wei's second uncle.
Zhang Guoji was shocked at that time. Eunuch Chen told him not to make a fuss. Then he pulled him down to have a tea and said something was wrong to tell him.
Zhang Guoji asked Baozhu not to run around, but Baozhu couldn't stay there. She had been traveling around with her father since she was a child, and she was a little boyish. After staying for a while, she was a little bored, so she quietly moved out to find the eunuch under Eunuch Chen to go shopping together.
Eunuch Chen told Zhang Guoji two things. One is that Eunuch Wei led the imperial army to defeat Jiannu outside the pass, so in the future, Wei Fuji could set up stalls outside the pass with confidence and boldness. Not only would he open shops in Shenyang and Liaoyang, but he would also open shops in Jianzhou, Liaonan, Jinzhou and other places.
Zhang Guoji was overjoyed when he heard this, but another thing made him so flattered. Eunuch Chen actually said that Eunuch Wei intended to marry Baozhu to the eldest grandson of the Eastern Palace!
Just now, Uncle Wei came here to see the appearance of Baozhu!
Zhang Guoji never dared to think about his daughter marrying the Emperor Changsun, so he was so excited that he couldn't speak.
"Look at what makes you happy. This is just marrying Baozhu to the emperor Changsun as your wife. You are so excited that you drive the girl Baozhu to become the crown princess. Empress, you, the father-in-law, can't you faint?" Eunuch Chen half-joking and half-seriously joked about Zhang Guoji.
"How can it be? How can it be..."
Zhang Guoji forced himself to calm down, and then he felt that this was not realistic, because if the Emperor Changsun got married, he would definitely be responsible for the palace and the Ministry of Rites. At that time, many girls would be chosen, so Eunuch Wei would marry him as soon as he said.
Eunuch Chen saw Zhang Guoji's doubts and couldn't help but smile and said, "As long as you, Boss Zhang, is fine, this matter can be done. With Eunuch Wei's current status, you will be granted a jewel to the Emperor Changsun. I am afraid that the East Palace will not dare to say anything bad."
Zhang Guoji didn't know how he came from Eunuch Chen, and he thought about Baozhu marrying Emperor Changsun as his wife along the way. The more he thought about it, the more beautiful he became, the happier he became.
I heard that the emperor was seriously ill and if the Eastern Palace ascended the throne, the eldest grandson of the emperor would be the crown prince. That would be what Eunuch Chen said, Baozhu might really be the queen.
This is really a blessing that the Zhang family will never be able to cultivate in their lifetimes!
