Princess Jiahui got the reward and was furious.
But what can she do?
Yan Shiyue said she had never seen it. Could she go and rob someone's house? She really didn't have the face to do so. Now was no longer her glorious time.
The more she thought about it, the more she hated it.
Yan Shiyue! It's not that I want to deal with you, it's that you're going too far! You're always making things difficult for me!
Thinking of her plan, Princess Jiahui couldn't help but sneer, with a hint of pride in her eyes.
Just then, Jia Yi, the second son of Marquis Nan'an, came in and bowed to greet him.
When Princess Jiahui saw his fat face, she felt disgusted and scolded him without hesitation: "Get out! Who let you in! Get out now! Disgusting fat man! Don't get in my way!" At the same time, she swept the teacup on the table to the ground with a bang.
Jia Yi bowed and walked out.
Although he was fat, he was not a fool. He could see that she disliked him. Princess Jiahui was already old and not a peerless beauty, so there was no need for him to make herself uncomfortable.
...
...
So he came over every day as a token of his respect, performed all the formalities, and then was driven out by Princess Jiahui. He then went into the study and read happily.
Yes, Jia Yi is actually a bookworm. He is content with everything as long as he has books. Although he has no fame, he is very talented. It doesn’t matter to him whether he has a wife or not!
But he himself didn't care, but his family members saw it and couldn't help but talk about it. So without Princess Jiahui knowing, the news spread that she had never consummated her marriage with her husband since her marriage, and that she would throw things and scold her every time her husband came to pay his respects.
Over there, the shadow guard quickly found out.
In fact, many people know about what happened to Princess Jiahui in the past.
Princess Jiahui was extremely beautiful in her days, and favored by the late emperor, so she was arrogant and proud.
During a polo match, she fell in love with the prince consort at first sight, but the prince consort didn't like her at all and was only obsessed with Meng Hui.
But at that time, there were indeed many men who admired the two beauties of the Meng family, so the prince consort was not conspicuous among them. But Princess Jiahui was very flamboyant and made things difficult in public several times, so that everyone knew about it.
The prince consort was quite responsible and sent someone to the Meng residence to propose marriage.
But at that time Meng Hui had actually already reached a tacit understanding with the Emperor Ming Yan, who had not yet ascended the throne. It was just that the timing was not right and it was not made public, so of course she politely declined the marriage proposal.
Unexpectedly, Princess Jiahui got the news and went crazy to make trouble for Meng Hui, so that Emperor Ming Yan had to arrange the marriage in advance and Meng Hui became a concubine.
So the person she hated suddenly became her imperial sister-in-law, and Princess Jiahui was quiet for a few days.
But later, the late emperor felt sorry for her and granted her a marriage with her husband.
You know, most princesses' husbands are illegitimate sons from large families, because the princess of this dynasty can no longer be an official. But the husband is the exiled eldest son of the Shen family, who is full of talent. How can he not hate it when his career path is suddenly cut off?
After that, Emperor Mingyan ascended the throne. Shen's father knew that they had offended him to death, so he quickly asked for an imperial decree to send him away, and later the family moved to Chenzhou.
Because of his decisive retreat, the matter was over, but the Shen family naturally didn't like such a daughter-in-law very much.
However, because of the love of the late emperor, Princess Jiahui was relatively prosperous, and she and her husband were apparently harmonious. However, she had no offspring for so many years, and Princess Jiahui never interacted with her husband's family.
Until the prince consort died, she happened to meet Shen Hongdou, and then for some reason, he insisted on having her accompany him and kept her by his side.
Let’s talk about Shen Hongdou.
The Shen family has a title of Earl, and now Shen's father is still the governor. The eldest son of the Shen family is the son-in-law Shen Zheng, who has passed away. The second son Shen Rong is still studying. They only have one daughter, Hongdou, who was exiled.
The Shen family has a good family tradition. The three children were all exiled and have been close to each other since childhood. Hongdou is very smart. She has been helping Shen's wife manage the family business since she was thirteen years old. It is said that when reporting accounts, the shopkeeper of the Shen family reports through a curtain. She can hear any mistakes, and everyone is very convinced.
Chen Hongdou is eighteen years old this year. It is said that she was about to be married, but because she was brought here by Princess Jiahui, the matter was dropped and has been delayed until now.
Yan Shiyue listened to the report and exclaimed inwardly.
If Chen Hongdou is really good at accounting, then it would be good whether she sends it to Xie Meiwan or Ding Jiu!
Her Jiu'er is also grown up, it seems that she can get married! But after all, she is a banished girl from the Bo Mansion... Should she ignore Hengsha?
Yan Shiyue was thinking about it, and called Hongdou over to ask, "Have you read the new accounting method? Or the general knowledge of the Ministry of Commerce?"
Shen Hongdou shook her head, and she asked again: "Have you ever managed the household?"
Shen Hongdou said: “Yes.”
Yan Shiyue called Sun Wuniang over and randomly picked a passage to test her.
Shen Hongdou was one of those gifted people with a good memory and strong mental arithmetic skills, but she had never learned the new accounting method.
Yan Shiyue asked her: "Do you want to go home?"
Shen Hongdou's face changed slightly, and she knelt down hurriedly and said, "Your Highness." She didn't dare to lie, and after a long time she said, "Hongdou is afraid that when she returns home, Her Highness the Grand Princess will be furious, which will implicate her parents and brothers..."
Yan Shiyue thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll ask someone to teach you the new accounting method first."
Shen Hongdou was overjoyed.
She is a smart person. Since Yan Shiyue wants to teach her, it means he wants to use her, so she doesn't have to worry about being kicked out! She was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to thank him.
She was really smart in this regard, and could learn it quickly. After getting to know each other, Yan Shiyue liked her very much, and thought about taking her in as his apprentice when he got back together. But the seniority was a bit wrong.
Yan Shiyue later talked about this matter with Emperor Chengsheng.
Emperor Cheng Sheng smiled and said, "What a coincidence, Chenzhou Governor Chen Yu, I mentioned this person yesterday. This person is actually very talented, and his performance in previous years is also very good. I was thinking about whether to transfer him back? Back then, their family was implicated by Jia Hui and suffered a lot. So many years have passed..."
He then ordered him to come back and report on his work.
The imperial decree had just been issued when Shen Rong, the second son of the Shen family, had already arrived in Chang'an City.
They actually didn't know about Princess Jiahui's previous move of sending Hongdou into the palace. They only heard that Jiahui had gotten married again, so they thought about bringing Hongdou out.
But the whole family knew Princess Jiahui's temper and did not dare to go directly to her house to ask for her. After discussing for a long time, they thought of coming over under the pretext that Chen Rong would be taking the imperial examination next year.
When I arrived, I found out that Shen Hongdou was no longer in the princess's mansion.
No, that's not right. Princess Jiahui has not been granted a princess's mansion now. She just lives with her husband in a purchased house with a sign that reads "Yan Mansion".
Chen Rong heard Princess Jiahui's servants say that Hongdou had fallen in love with Prince Rong, and then disappeared when she arrived at the palace, and Yan Shiyue denied having seen her... and so on, and his heart sank.
This person is also someone you can't afford to mess with.
But even though he couldn't afford to offend him, Shen Rong still came.
After handing over the note, the doorman just said that he was not in. Chen Rong did not dare to ask whether he was really not there or not, so he could only wait at the door.
Fortunately, the doorman did not chase him away, so after waiting for a while, he saw a group of people coming back on horseback. The first person was wearing an apricot yellow robe, and he knew it was Yan Shiyue without asking.
Chen Rong rushed forward and saluted: "I am Chen Rong, your humble servant, and I pay my respects to the Prime Minister!"
He had passed the provincial examination three years ago and had the title of juren, so he could call himself a humble official.
