After reconciliation, Hou Ye chased his wife to the crematorium

Chapter 74

Tomorrow was the time when Tingli returned to the door, Gu Man brought Ji Moyan into the palace together, and then told the Queen about Ji Moyan's idea.

After hearing this, the empress immediately expressed her willingness to help, and then greatly praised Ji Moyan.Ting Li also patted Ji Moyan on the shoulder, and said that he wanted to befriend her, and that he would become like a sister in the future!
With the Queen's permission, everyone decided to have a good show together!
Gu Man and Ji Moyan discussed to hold a banquet, and then let the Queen and Princess Tingli perform a play to promote the efficacy of "Ningxiang Pill".

However, due to the recent uproar about the emperor's order to let everyone donate money, all the bureaucratic families don't want to pay the money. If they let their female relatives come to the banquet without a name, they will definitely use various methods to refuse to participate .

How can we get the women of the bureaucratic family to come to the banquet?
Everyone brainstormed, and in the end, they unanimously decided to use Gu Man's idea—to choose a concubine for the second prince Xiao Jinwen! ! !

Xiao Jinwen has always loved to go sightseeing in mountains and rivers, and even the empress rarely sees him throughout the year!Therefore, Xiao Jinwen has never married a wife, which is also a big headache for the queen.After hearing Gu Man's idea, the Empress immediately patted her thigh and decided that it was it!
First, they can implement their plan to raise money, and second, they can choose a woman from a good family for Xiao Jinwen. When Xiao Jinwen gets married, she will naturally be able to settle down, and her mother will not be constantly worried. up.

Gu Man was a little flattered, she was just saying it casually, but she didn't expect to be recruited.However, for a banquet that would allow a woman from an aristocratic family to attend even if she knew it was a set, I am afraid that only being able to become a princess is the most suitable thing.

I hope Xiao Jinwen doesn't blame her... Hehe...

The empress summoned the second prince Xiao Jinwen.Hearing the plan of the Empress Empress, although Xiao Jinwen was unwilling, but after all, it was for the sake of national affairs.But he is also unwilling to give his life-long event, after all, he...

Therefore, he bargained with the queen: "My son can cooperate, but...in the matter of choosing a concubine, I have forgotten that the queen mother can rely on her son's wishes. If there is no woman who can please her son, I hope the mother will not force her son to marry me." Must marry!"

The queen's face was a little displeased, and then she thought, at least he agreed, maybe he can choose a suitable one?If not... let's talk about it.

So he also agreed.

Gu Man looked at Xiao Jinwen, she knew that Xiao Jinwen's sweetheart was Ji Moyan, so... the Queen's plan might be shattered.

On the second day, the queen empress sent a message to the female family members of the bureaucratic family, nominally to choose a concubine for the second prince Xiao Jinwen.

After discussing with the elders of the bureaucratic family, although Xiao Jinwen will not become the future emperor, he is the emperor's direct son after all, and Xiao Jinwen has a handsome appearance and a good literary and military strategy.He is also humble and courteous, without the slightest pretensions of a prince.If you can marry Xiao Jinwen, not to mention that your family can follow the glory, but if your daughter marries the prince, she will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future.Therefore, it doesn't matter whether it's a trick or not, even if it's a trick, as long as you can marry the prince and pay some money, what's the point?
Therefore, various bureaucratic families responded one after another.

The banquet was scheduled for three days later, and during this time, Gu Man and Ji Moyan were busy looking for a shop in the capital, preparing to open it secretly.

With the Queen's support behind them, the two of them found a shop very smoothly and named it "Ningxianglou".It opened without anyone noticing.

The shop they were looking for was located in a remote place, few people came, the purpose was to appear mysterious.Moreover, no one cares whether this kind of shop is new or old, it is more convenient for Gu Man and others to do things.

Gu Man and Ji Moyan decided not to reveal their identities. If outsiders know that the shop is opened by the two wives of the Hou Mansion, they must have doubts about their purpose of opening the shop, so they will not buy their "Ningxiang Pills".So, they hired a smart-looking woman to be the shopkeeper of Ningxianglou.

Three days later, the concubine selection banquet officially started.

In recent days, Ting Li has been using Ningxiang Pills improved by Ji Moyan to apply to his face. Ting Li himself is young and beautiful, and with the blessing of Ningxiang Pills, his skin is more fragile and radiant.

Some of the female relatives of the aristocratic families were secretly envious and jealous in their hearts when they saw it.

At the beginning of the banquet, the empress first emphasized the purpose of the banquet again, and then booed with everyone for a while, and then let everyone do as they please.Then, the queen looked at Ting Li, and suddenly said in surprise: "Ting Li, I haven't seen you for a long time, why is your skin so delicate and smooth? It seems that you and your son-in-law are living happily and sweetly!"

When everyone heard the Queen's question, they all quieted down and looked at Ting Li, they also wanted to know the reason.

But when they heard the second half of the queen's words, they all became jealous.

The prime minister's son, Gu Qinghe, is also one of the most famous sons in the capital. Not only does he have a good family background and good looks, but he is also praised by everyone for his future as an official. With a relationship like the queen, his future is bright.It's just that Gu Qinghe is in their twenties, but they have never been married, and there is no concubine or maidservant in their family. Therefore, there are rumors from the outside world that Gu Qinghe may be abnormal!
But now, he is not only normal, but also married to a princess!The daughters who sat down all regretted it, they shouldn't listen to people talking nonsense!

Blush instantly appeared on the cheeks of Li Li, and he looked at his mother, and said with a sneer: "Mother, don't make fun of my daughter! To be honest, my daughter recently found a new shop in Beijing, called "Ningxiang Pavilion"! They specialize in selling There is a thing called "Ningxiang Pill", which is only a small one. It is ground into a fine powder, and then mixed with water and applied to the face, and rinsed off after a quarter of an hour. After several times of application, the daughter's skin is as good as Now it's as rosy and tender as ever!"

Hearing Ting Li's words, the women from the bureaucratic family sitting down were all surprised, but they had little doubts in their hearts.

At this time, the queen was also very surprised and asked: Is it really so magical?Does this thing have any side effects? "

The noble ladies of the bureaucratic family all listened with pricked ears, and what the queen asked was what they were worried about.

Ting Li replied with a smile: "After going back to my mother, my daughter first let the girls around me try it out, and then my daughter tried it herself. Not only did it have no side effects, but my daughter felt that after taking this Ningxiang pill, her body is better than before. It’s much lighter, and the sleep is sweeter than before. I heard from the shopkeeper that the ingredients in this Ningxiang pill are the most nourishing for our girls. I didn’t quite believe it, but now my daughter is convinced. Woolen cloth!"

The queen was pleasantly surprised: "It's really so good?"

Tingli nodded, then took out a small box from his arms, opened it, and saw a white pill the size of a thumb lying inside.

Ting Li smiled and said: "Look, Queen Mother, this is Ningxiang Wan!"

The ladies of the aristocratic family stretched their necks and looked over, thinking: Is this ordinary little pill really so powerful?
The queen also said: "Is this thing really that powerful? Why don't you ask someone to test it?"

Ting Li nodded, "Just right!"

Ting Li and the queen looked up at the noble ladies who were sitting down, and the noble ladies lowered their heads one after another.I am afraid of being chosen by the queen but I really want to try whether this little pill is really so magical.

Seeing this, the queen was a little displeased, but she was not so angry when she thought that it is human nature for women to dare not try because they are afraid of skin damage.

At this moment, a daughter of an unknown family who was sitting in the front row suddenly got up and saluted the queen: "My lady, the queen is willing to give it a try!"
