Chapter 292 The inner palace of Volume B
Shocked by Yun Shang's frank and passionate feelings, Feng Ziying was in a daze for a moment.
It has been more than two years since Feng Ziying came to this world. He has experienced the test of life and death as well as hardships. It should be said that in the past two years, he has been mentally prepared for the various challenges he may face in the future. I thought I could face everything, but I was still shocked by Yun Shang's innocence and passion.
"Yun Shang, aren't you afraid that the young master will marry another woman to be his young mistress, or even take in concubines and other girls?"
Feng Ziying couldn't help but lift Yun Shang's chin again, and looked directly into each other's eyes.
"Why should you be afraid? Yun Shang only knows that the young master cherishes Yun Shang. It is a natural thing for the young master to marry a wife and take concubines. Isn't it just a matter of the young master to accept other girls? My wife has long hoped that the young master can do it as soon as possible. When I grow up, I can marry my young mistress and my aunt, have children, and continue the Feng family’s legacy..."
Yun Shang faced Feng Ziying's gaze calmly and said with a little surprise, is there anything wrong with this?
Taking a deep breath, Feng Ziying knew that she still had not fully adjusted.
For a slave like Yun Shang who was adopted by her family since she was a child, as long as she can be by her side, Yun Shang feels that she is the happiest person in her life. How can she expect to have other ideas?
This era and social background determine her consciousness and emotions, and it is impossible to transcend this era and background.
Thinking of this, Feng Ziying cherished Yun Shang even more, and her eyes became a little more doting: "Hasn't Yun Shang thought about giving birth to a son for the young master in the future and continuing the Feng family's legacy?"
"Ah?!" As if being burned by hot coals, Yun Shang seemed to be frightened this time. She looked around subconsciously and saw that there was no one else in the room or even outside. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, her voice trembling slightly. Authentic: "Master, you can't say this..."
"Why can't you say it?" Feng Ziying was really confused by Yun Shang's performance. He was so brave before, what happened to his words?
"Don't tell me that I haven't married the young mistress yet. Even if I marry the young mistress, the government has said that even if the girl takes over the house, she can't do it without the wife's consent..." Yun Shang was too embarrassed to say any more.
Feng Ziying slowly came back to her senses and said calmly: "Who does this house refer to? My mother or my aunt? Or Ming Huan and the others around them?"
Yun Shang was shocked and said quickly: "No, young master, there is no one. It's just Yun Shang's own speculation. I feel that I'm afraid I can't do it before young mistress..."
This means that concubines and their first wives are not allowed to have children before their main wife. Well, this is indeed a rule in some wealthy families, but it depends on the situation. In a family like the Feng family, where there are three rooms in one house and only one family, it may not be possible. Dare to do this.
My aunt said that my mother even thought about letting her take a concubine or marry a girl so that I could have a son to take over the family as soon as possible. Of course, this was the initial idea. Maybe after I passed the exam, or even passed the Jinshi exam, In order to find a better marriage partner, or to consider the peace of the house in the future, the mother has to consider the balance.
If you have not married a wife, there are pets. I am afraid that many good women who have good family must consider more, and the pets will have some worries in the predecessor of the wife. After all, the identity of the eldest son is still a bit different.
My mother and aunt would probably not say such things to Yun Shang. If it were the two of them who said it, Yun Shang would not use the word "fuli" instead, but would just say it directly, and it might be the maids around her mother. .
But it’s hard to say whether he is conveying his mother’s intention, or whether he is trying to figure it out on his own, or even just not wanting to see Yun Shang favored by him.
And even if you know this kind of thing, you can't go to them to confirm it, you can only guess.
This is why a girl like Yuanyang has such a high status in Jia's family. After all, she represents Jia's mother to a certain extent, and Minghuan may also represent her own mother to a certain extent.
Feng Ziying also found it funny that she would actually fall into such entanglements similar to palace intrigues. Minghuan and Mingzhu probably knew that she declined her mother's arrangement, and felt a little disappointed or dissatisfied, but would they take this opportunity to It's hard to say whether to suppress Yun Shang, we can only wait and see the effects.
I didn’t expect that with the increase in members and the expansion of the family, my family would gradually evolve into a template like Jia’s family, so I really have to be careful.
"Master, actually Yun Shang doesn't think it's a big deal. No matter how the wife arranges it, it makes sense. Just look at other families similar to ours. Each family has its own rules. They may not all be the same, but they are all correct. It’s all for a reason.”
Yun Shang, in turn, forgives Feng Ziying, which makes Feng Ziying even more fond of Yun Shang's understanding.
"Well, Yun Shang is so considerate, I'm thinking about what I would do without you." Feng Ziying sat back in the chair, and Yun Shang stood behind and massaged Feng Ziying's shoulders, "Master, please don't say that, you Master He is the backbone of our house, and Yun Shang is just a servant who waits for others. How can he be worthy of the young master? Well, the wife also said that she would arrange for someone to come into the house. I wonder if the young master and the wife have discussed it? "
"Well, I don't want the people around my wife and aunt. As for arranging for someone to buy a maid back, that's a matter of years and years. Why do you ask?"
Feng Ziying was a little curious. Yun Shang seemed to have never cared about it before, and even thought that one or two more people should come in. Why did she become concerned about it now?
"Is the young master attracted to Qingwen?" Yun Shang's words made Feng Ziying tremble. She almost turned her head to look at Yun Sang, but Yun Shang said with a smile: "Is the young master surprised how Yun Shang knew?"
Feng Ziying suppressed her inner surprise. She was indeed curious and concerned about Qingwen, but was it too much to say that she was attracted to her? Well, it doesn't seem to be too much. When Qingwen came to his house that day, he did take a few more glances. It was probably at that time that Yun Shang noticed something.
In front of Yun Shang, Feng Ziying didn't dare to admit anything, but she just felt a little embarrassed.
"When Qingwen came to the house that time, Yun Shang felt that the young master looked at her in a strange way, as if he wanted to swallow someone. However, this girl Qingwen is indeed quite handsome. She is now in Jia's house. She's also a little bit offended, it would be great if the young master could ask her to come over."
Yun Shang's idea shocked even Feng Ziying, "Yun Shang, please don't talk nonsense. Qingwen is beautiful, but she's not as good as you. As for her, she doesn't seem to have any interest in following the rules of a girl in another house, right? "
"Hehe, Master, are you saying this against your will? Yun Shang can't keep up with Qingwen, but that girl has a fierce temper and is more stubborn than Yun Sang. She is more difficult to serve than Yun Sang. But Yun Shang thinks she has a clean temper, even if she quarrels with you, It's just a quarrel. It won't be remembered. Yun Shang likes to get along with people like this..."
Feng Ziying finally turned around and glanced at Yun Shang. This girl was probably still worried that she could not withstand the pressure of her mother. Ming Huan and Ming Zhu would eventually enter her house, so she wanted to use this move to preemptively save the country. A trick, right?
However, it is understandable. It is estimated that if girls like Ming Huan Mingzhu enter her house, she, a girl chosen from the backyard, will inevitably be angry. Moreover, these girls have the status of her mother's personal maids, so she must respect them. .
"Silly girl, don't think too much." Feng Ziying shook her head and Yun Shang felt panicked. Could it be that the young master noticed her little thoughts? Or did the young master misunderstand something?
Of course Feng Ziying couldn't want a girl from someone else's house. When she said she wanted to attack someone, she was just teasing Baoyu.
Although Qingwen caught his eye, it was not enough for him to go to Jia's house to ask for a girl. That would be a loss of status.
When the follow-up matters of the Spring Festival Competition have almost come to an end, the next step is to select the Shujishi Hall in June.
That is also an exam full of various game colors, and it is not exactly the so-called Dongge exam.
Most of the top three fellow Jinshis are excluded. In dozens of subjects since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, only one or two people among the top three top fellows in each subject have been selected as Shujishi. In many subjects, there is simply no one. Selected from among the top two Jinshi.
But on the surface, all the second and third grade Jinshi can refer to the palace selection, and will discuss and finalize through examinations with the cabinet elders, the Sixth Ministry, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the General Affairs Department, and the Dali Temple officials. This is a bit like the situation of the imperial examination, but this Once, the emperor does not need to personally review it. Basically, the candidates are submitted after finalization. The emperor only needs Zhubi's approval.
According to the usual practice, the number of candidates for Shujishi is generally between fifteen and thirty, and each subject is not determined. It is determined according to the selection situation of the school.
Cabinet ministers occupy an absolutely dominant position in the selection of bureaus, but the senior officials of Liubu Hall also have a certain say. Often, the selection of shujishi bureaus is actually a game of interests.
In the previous Shujishi Hall selection, three of the seven Jinshis who passed the Qingtan Academy examination were second-class Jinshis, but none of them entered the Shujishi Academy. However, there were two and two from Tonghui Academy and Chongzheng Academy respectively. One person enters Shujishi.
This situation largely stems from the fact that during the last semester, few Ge Lao and Liubu Hall Shangguan were willing to speak for Qingtan Academy.
But the situation in this department is a little different. Qi Yongtai made a strong comeback and served as the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Qiao Yingjia, who served as the right deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, also has a close relationship with Qingtan Academy. This selection of the hall may be a battle between dragons and tigers. .
