All Hail Cousin Brother

Not to mention, he heard that Princess Shaoyi studied under a very famous female gentleman of the Ye family.

There is some connection with Yezhou Prefecture.

If you often walk by the river, your shoes won't get wet. The Baifu can control the origin of medicinal materials in Kanto, run such a huge family business, and have countless wealth. How can the family be clean?

Without the protection of the nobles, many things cannot withstand thorough investigation. Once a crime is proven, it will be a disaster for them.

As the chief official of the three provinces of Liaodong, Yezhou Prefecture would never be able to protect guilty persons.

Mrs. Bai's throat was a little dry: "How dare they, he? Although Bai Mansion is just a merchant, the Han family behind us is a big gentry in Xi'an..."

Mr. Bai shook his head with a wry smile: "Don't you understand? Right now is the struggle between the wealthy gentry and the Xie Mansion. Princess Shaoyi, the Yu family behind her, the royalists behind the Yu family, and King Wu Mu are all involved, and they are all involved. We have a tacit understanding with the great gentry in the north and will not easily get involved in the "disputes between merchants and gentry"."

Everyone knows that once the nobles get involved, it will affect the entire court, and even the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it will become a situation where the powerful are fighting.

No one can afford this consequence.

The nobles did not dare to act rashly.

Mrs. Bai couldn't help but be stunned. She didn't understand what he meant for a moment: "Our family is very filial to them. How can they withdraw their hands and take charge? If something happens to our family, what good will it do to the Han family?"

Mr. Bai shook his head: "Princess Shaoyi is not only a princess, she is also the only one in this dynasty who is a first-grade holy princess. Her status is comparable to that of a princess. Behind her are the Yu family and the Empress Dowager. The royalist party headed by King Wu Mu, the clan headed by King Wu Mu, and even tens of millions of people. She is a princess who can influence the court. It is not easy to inherit the family. As long as they are not mortal enemies, no noble family will rashly provoke another behemoth. , make enemies and enemies for yourself, and gamble with a century-old family fortune."

As the saying goes, a wealthy family has three generations and a century-old family.

Wealthy families and aristocratic families must accumulate wealth and reputation over several generations before they can become truly powerful families, with a long history and long-lasting prosperity.

Xu Jie wanted to "return to strictness" and knew that the key was the emperor, so he welcomed the emperor and won the Holy Heart. Only then did he succeed in "removing strictness".

Why were the gentry so unscrupulous and not afraid of the power of King Li of Zhou Dynasty?

After all, the imperial court was very suspicious of the vassal kings, and the Sacred Heart was on the side of the nobles.

However, the earlier case of "King Zhou Li" provoked the majesty of the Tian family and the dignity of the royal family. The emperor deeply hated the northern gentry.

Just from the fact that there were very few officials from the north on the list in this imperial examination, we can see the emperor's attitude towards the north.

At present, the royalist party in North Korea and China is gaining momentum.

The gentry did not dare to confront Princess Shaoyi head-on. Since Princess Shaoyi came to the north, the gentry did not act rashly and everyone was watching the situation.

Mr. Bai said dejectedly: "We have become the abandoned sons of the noble clan."

Being in Xiangping, they are more sensitive to the situation in Xiangping, understand faster and more thoroughly. Looking at what Princess Shaoyi did in Liancheng, it is not difficult to deduce their current situation.

It is inevitable to consider a way out.

There was a sudden silence in the room.

After a long time, Mrs. Bai's voice was dry: "What should we do now?"

Mr. Bai sighed heavily: "The day after tomorrow, Prince Shaoyi went to Longfeng Temple to worship the Medicine Master Buddha. In order to prevent and control the epidemic and pray for the victims, he only made appointments with Anyuan General's Mansion and Huang Mansion. He must have made an appointment with King Wu Mu. People with whom you have made good friends will also go over to pay their respects to Princess Shaoyi, and express their gratitude to Princess Shaoyi for her attitude towards preventing and controlling the epidemic. Then you can take your daughter with you, mix among them, and join in the fun. Interesting."

Mrs. Bai understood as soon as she heard this. This was a statement to Princess Shaoyi and showed the White House's strong support for the prevention and control of the epidemic.

Mr. Bai continued: "Don't the Xie Mansion want to buy medicinal materials and donate them to the government? All medicinal materials related to epidemic prevention are sold to the Xie Mansion at a 30% price reduction. I heard that Princess Shaoyi has established an incense shop and will vigorously make related products. To prevent the epidemic, we will prepare a batch of herbs and spices needed to make the incense and donate it to Princess Shaoyi’s incense shop for free.”

Mrs. Bai hesitated: "But in this case, Han's side..."

The White House turned to King Wu Mu, which was bound to offend the Han family.

Their family has cooperated with the Han family for many years, and both parties have learned many secrets about each other. The Han family does not dare to offend Princess Shaoyi rashly, but it is easy to attack them.

The death of King Zhou Li was also related to the Bai Mansion. If the Han family wanted to attack the Bai Mansion, Princess Shaoyi would never be a direct enemy of the Han family for the sake of their family.

Mr. Bai looked helpless: "As early as when King Zhou Li was avenged and the northern territory fell into the hands of King Wu Mu, we should have known that such a day would come sooner or later, and we should have made a decision at that time."

But at that time, they were all scared by the imperial court, and they were worried that Yin Huaixi had a grudge against them, and those who turned to King Wu Mu were the ones who had not participated in the persecution of King Zhou Li, but were forced to stand by and watch because of the power of the nobles.

In addition, at that time, Yin Huaixi was physically ill and was confirmed by the imperial doctor that he would not live to be twenty. They were not even afraid of King Zhou Li, so why should they be afraid of a young, weak and disabled man?

Out of instinctive fear of the vassal king, the emperor trusted Yin Huaixi and kept a back-up plan, intending to use the gentry in the north to contain the vassal king. Therefore, the emperor killed the most gentry in those days, and the gentry were relatively less.

They are still useful to the court. As long as they have not committed any crime, Yin Huaixi cannot blatantly touch them.

If you surrender to Yin Huaixi, who knows what the consequences will be?

For various reasons, after weighing the pros and cons, it is safest for them to maintain the status quo for the time being.

Mr. Bai shook his head: "It's a pity that King Wu Mu is not King Zhou Li after all." He will not be easily controlled by others.

After Yin Huaixi guarded the northern border, his control over the northern border became increasingly deepened, especially the three provinces of Liaodong, which were almost completely under his control.

Everyone believes that most of the resources and economy in the north are concentrated in the mountains, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Qing Dynasty. The three provinces of Liaodong are vast and sparsely populated, and are short of resources. It can indeed alleviate the You army's dilemma of being controlled by others in a short time, but time Over time, with the consumption of materials in the three provinces of Liaodong, King Wu Mu still had to "control" them.

But she never expected that Princess Shaoyi would grow sweet potatoes with high yields and that were not picky about soil quality.

He didn't even expect that the Xie Mansion, which controlled shipping, would come to the north.

The supplies that King Wu Mu lacked could be transported to King Wu Mu by sea and would not be controlled by any gentry, which became the most powerful bargaining chip against the gentry.

Mrs. Bai understood what he meant, but she still had scruples in her heart: "I'm afraid that if I failed to make a decision at the beginning, King Wu Mu will not appreciate it now."

He doesn't want to please both ends, and he still wants to make trouble inside and outside, so he is not a human being.

By then, the White House will really be finished.
