Metaphysical Talisman Wife Fortune-telling Spirit: Orion eats chaff and I eat meat

Chapter 553 Chen Huaiyu takes over the Ministry of Revenue

Combining the circumstances before and after, no matter how dumb Mu Wanwen was, she realized that she was just a tool.

He was the tool used by His Majesty the Emperor to turn the three Chen Huaixian brothers into legitimate sons.

And because it was their own, the three brothers Chen Huaixian did not need to recognize another maternal ancestor.

My maternal grandparents’ family is still the Mu family.

For Chen Huaijin and his two brothers, apart from becoming the emperor's legitimate sons, almost nothing else has changed.

Mu Wanwen bit her back teeth with hatred!
The new palace is still under renovation, so Xiao Luoyi and others still live in the previous Prince's Palace.

Three princes live in the Prince's Mansion, which is now also called the Three Princes' Mansion by the noble families in Beijing.

From an adopted son to a legitimate son, and a legitimate son with real power in a mansion outside, the threshold of the Three Princes' Palace was almost broken down.

In theory, a prince can marry one principal wife, two concubines, and several concubines.

Although Prince Zhong and Prince Xing both have princesses, the position of concubine is still vacant!
At one time, those who did not send their daughters to the palace all brought their daughters to visit.

Xiao Luoyi couldn't bear it, and refused all of them on the grounds that she was pregnant and feeling unwell.

Privately, Xiao Luoyi took Lu Yingying aside and started to give her sister-in-law some scientific knowledge.

"Yingying, now you are also the Princess of Xing. Many people are eager to give their daughters to you as sisters. Don't make promises just because someone coaxes you."

Lu Yingying was just naive, not stupid, so she nodded immediately.

"I know. The prince told me. He said he only wanted to live with me and he didn't want other women."

After thinking about it, Lu Yingying also told Xiao Luoyi what Chen Huaiyu had said.

"The prince said that when he was a child, his father had a concubine and treated his mother badly. Later, he drove his mother out. He doesn't want to be that kind of person in the future."

Xiao Luoyi understood that being kicked out of the house probably left deep psychological trauma in the hearts of the three brothers.

As long as Chen Huaiyu doesn't have this idea, Lu Yingying has nothing to fear.

Looking at Lu Yingying's obvious height growth and gradually plump figure this year, I know that the little girl is gradually growing into a big girl.

According to the age of women in this era, it is time for them to consummate their marriage.

However, Lu Yingying will obviously grow taller, so Xiao Luoyi does not recommend that she have a child in a short period of time.

"You are barely sixteen years old, are you ready to consummate your marriage now?"

Under Chen Huaiyu's guidance, Lu Yingying was not completely ignorant. She blushed and shook her head when she heard this.

"Huaiyu said we should wait another year. He said I was still young and was afraid that I would get hurt if I got pregnant."

"That is."

Xiao Luoyi felt more relieved.

Watching Lu Yingying eating delicious food heartlessly, Xiao Luoyi sighed: Now that I am taking care of this sister-in-law, it's like taking care of my own daughter, and I am worried about everything.

Fortunately, Lu Yingying was simple-minded and did not have any other thoughts in her mind just because Xiao Luoyi was too controlling.

The New Year arrived during those quiet days.

This year, the Mu Mansion was as bustling as the Three Princes' Mansions: a queen emerged from the Mu Mansion, and even Tutor Mu's family received rewards.

Mu Zhaopeng was granted the title of Marquis Dingguo.

As the mother of the queen, Shen Danxia was granted the title of Lady of Dingguo Marquis.

Mu Zhaopeng's son, Mu Jichun, was granted the title of Heir to the Dingguo Marquisate.

Inherited for three generations.

For a time, the Mu family was filled with glory. Who wouldn't be envious?
Even the children of the Mu family were very popular, and many families came to inquire about the news to see if they could get married. Mu Jichun was originally a young man. When he first returned to Beijing, he was looked down upon by the aristocratic families in Beijing because he had no official title and his father also had no official title.

Several times he was ridiculed at banquets and cried when he came back.

Now, the situation has suddenly turned around and he has become a popular figure among the young men in the capital. Not only do they try to please them and get close to them, they also frequently take him out for entertainment.

Mu Chengsong saw everything but remained alert. After explaining everything to Mu Zhaopeng, he took Mu Jichun with him to educate him personally.

I don't seek fame or success, but at least I can't go astray.

Under his grandfather's personal instruction and discipline, Mu Jichun's originally restless and boiling heart finally calmed down, and he began to look back at the actions of these people.

"Grandpa, I understand. What they value now is not me as a person, but my identity."

"And my identity was given by His Majesty."

"If I don't do well, not only will His Majesty not cover for me, but he might even cause trouble for my sister."

Mu Jichun had no idea what his family really thought of his sister, the Queen, and he had no idea about Mu Wanwen's current situation.

But after all, she is his biological sister, and he also hopes the best for Mu Wanwen.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, brothers Chen Huaijin and Chen Huaiyu brought the princess to the palace to pay New Year's greetings and had a reunion dinner with His Majesty the Emperor.

Mu Wanwen was not present due to poor health, and just asked the brothers Chen Huaijin and Chen Huaiyu to kowtow and wish a happy new year in the Central Palace.

After letting all the waiters go, Yang Chenghou looked relieved: "Just like at home, don't be restrained."

As he spoke, he took the initiative to pick up some food for his two sons and daughter-in-law.

Chen Huaijin and Chen Huaiyu hurriedly caught it.

Seeing this, Lu Yingying also took the initiative to pick up some food for Yang Chenghou: "Father, please eat more."

Facing Lu Yingying's clear eyes, Yang Chenghou was moved and nodded at her: "You have grown a lot taller this year. You are growing, so you should eat more."

"Thank you, father." Lu Yingying was not at all pretentious. After expressing her gratitude, she began to eat with relish.

Chen Huaiyu couldn't help laughing and couldn't help but persuade him: "Slow down."

"Oh." Lu Yingying realized later that she had eaten too much and really slowed down.

Yang Chenghou became more and more satisfied as he watched his younger son becoming more and more open-minded and generous.

"Huaiyu, is there anything you like to do?" Yang Chenghou asked casually.

Chen Huaiyu thought about it and grinned, "My son is interested in making money."

"Now the court wants to build a canal, revitalize commerce, and let the people live a prosperous life. How about you take charge of the Ministry of Revenue?"

Chen Huaiyu was shocked: "Me? In charge of the Ministry of Households?"

He really didn't think that the emperor would use him.

Yang Chenghou nodded: "The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the country's money and grain. You are indeed capable in this area. Why don't you do it?"

"But I still have three businesses in my hands: Yihelou, Heji and Moxiangzhai!"

"You can first get a name in the court, and then slowly select the right person to manage the business. Once you have the right person, you can slowly let go. The two sides don't match." Yang Chenghou didn't care.

It is only natural for his son to make money by using his name. It would be even better if he could also take charge of the Ministry of Revenue.

Anyway, the Ministry of Revenue has people who can be used.

If Huaiyu hadn't had the time to take care of things, the Ministry of Revenue wouldn't have gotten into trouble.

Chen Huaiyu didn't have time to think about it, he stood up and accepted the order: "Yes!"

After Chen Huaiyu accepted the order, Yang Chenghou's eyes naturally turned to Chen Huaijin and Xiao Luoyi.
