Marquis Anle had never expected that his son's organization of such a tea party would actually give him another job.
But the wife of Anle Hou frowned:
"Isn't this foundation under the jurisdiction of the imperial court? If it's not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, then if Yi'er follows Ning'an Hou, wouldn't it be useless?"
"fair sex!"
Marquis Anle spoke unhappily.
“With so many people present today, why didn’t Ning An Hou look for other people, but chose Yi’er and the others?
This is because I met Yier and the others earlier.
Moreover, Ning Anhou said that this foundation was established specifically for the people of Daqi. Even if it doesn't attract the attention of the court now, its prestige and reputation among the people will surely be good in the future.
The Zhu family is a century-old family. Although it has been declining since the time of Anle Hou, their son and Shen Tang want to make friends.
Perhaps the Zhu family can still make a comeback.
"Since Ning'an Hou has told you this, you should stay by her side. Even if you don't do well, it doesn't matter. I think Ning'an Hou is a man who works for the people. You will never go wrong if you follow him."
The current emperor is also a wise ruler. If this foundation can really succeed, my son’s future will be bright.
"By the way, Dad, there is one more thing. This matter must be thoroughly investigated."
Zhu Yi told this matter to Anle Hou, and sure enough, Anle Hou's face turned gloomy after hearing it.
"The Liang family is really too bold! They have been really arrogant and domineering in their actions over the years. You don't have to worry about this matter. Your mother and I will take care of it."
It's time to fix those leaky sieves in your home.

"I heard that the Anle Marquis's Mansion sold off quite a few servants. Even the steward who had worked in the Hou Marquis's Mansion for decades was sold off."
"That's right. My nephew's second aunt's third cousin's godfather is a groom at the Anle Marquis's mansion. I heard that the Anle Marquis was very angry about this."
Isn’t this infuriating?
You won't know until you check. Once you check, you will be shocked to find that there are spies planted by other families besides the Liang family in the Anle Marquis' Mansion.
Marquis Anle was even more furious. He was no longer at the center of power, so why were there so many people planting spies?
After Shen Tang learned the news, he also gave his servants a beating.
She is unfamiliar with the place now. If someone with ulterior motives plants someone in here, even though she has acted honestly, if someone frames her and puts something in there, she will have no way to defend herself.
Moreover, after hearing about the rectification actions taken by the Anle Marquis Mansion and the Ning'an Marquis Mansion, many families in the court also secretly conducted investigations in their own homes.
Some people are more resourceful and even know which families have bribed their families.
For a while, some ministers in the court were constantly competing with each other.
After the tea party that day, Liang Bo returned to the Liang family.
When Mrs. Liang saw her son come back early, she knew that the plan had failed.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if this thing fails, as long as no one thinks it was you who did it. Did Shen Tang notice anything unusual?"
Liang Bo shook his head.
"Don't worry, Mom, it's okay. We'll be sitting together for lunch at noon."
As he spoke, Liang Bo frowned even more:
"Hey, you guys insisted on me marrying Shen Tang, mother, you didn't see that Shen Tang didn't shy away from sitting at the same table with men to eat and drink tea. She doesn't have the temperament of a noble lady at all. If you marry a woman like that, she won't even serve you."
Mrs. Liang smiled and comforted her son:
"You didn't marry her to wait on you. If you need someone to wait on you, you can just take in a few more concubines.
"Shen Tang, I heard from your father that the family is extremely wealthy. You are the youngest child, and all the family property has been taken away by your eldest brother. Mother must make some plans for you."
Mrs. Liang looked at her son with a loving look.
It was Shen Tang's blessing that his son fell in love with her. Besides, with the status of the Duke of Liang's Mansion, Shen Tang might not be able to enter the house.
"It's okay. After a while, I'll ask your sister to post an invitation to Shen Tang. Once he joins our welfare program, then we have the final say."
"Madam, you are right."
Duke Liang came in from the door and agreed with what Madam Liang said.
"It just so happens that Afu is also preparing to enter the palace, and it would be good for her to have a closer relationship with Shen Tang. It doesn't matter if the emperor doesn't like Afu, as long as Afu enters the palace and gives birth to a prince, everything will be fine."
Duke Liang's face was serious, and his years of majestic temperament were fully displayed.
Speaking of this, Mrs. Liang also frowned.
"Afu has been in the palace with the Queen Mother for many years. If the Emperor had any intention, he would have already..."
"The Emperor now holds real power, so it's normal for him to have some selfish thoughts."
Liang Guogong spoke out publicly, otherwise the queen should have been from the Liang family. In recent years, the emperor has been employing people from humble backgrounds and has become more and more self-centered.
In addition, the sudden appearance of Shen Tang in the past two years has made Emperor Jing's methods much tougher.
"You'll need to take extra care of Shen Tang. Ever since the Beidi prince asked to marry the Ning'an Marquis, I'm afraid many families in the court have become interested."
They are a bunch of people who have the will but not the courage to steal.
He wanted Shen Tang, but was afraid that the emperor would become suspicious, so he did not dare to act rashly.
If you don't enter a tiger's den, you can't get a tiger's son.
The Liang family is a family that is going to do great things, and Shen Tang must be a member of the Liang family.
In addition to the Liang family's closed-door conspiracy, the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion also had important matters to discuss.
“Ordinary families live in the south of the city. Don’t think that just because it’s the capital, the people there have an easy life.
I'm not very familiar with the south of the city, but I know that's where almost all the people in the capital live."
The southern half of the city is home to almost 80% of the capital's population, but there are only a few medical clinics.
In ancient times, seeing a doctor was an expensive thing, and many people would not go to the clinic unless they had no other choice.
“Our clinic is best located in the heart of the south city so that the people in the south can reach it as quickly as possible.
As for private schools, there are a few in the south of the city, but the tuition fees are not low. Almost all the teachers in the capital have the title of scholar.
Wei Ming and Qiu Zhixue have explored almost all of the southern part of the city in the past few days.
Shen Tang looked at the information that several people said and was also pleasantly surprised.
As expected, she was right about them. These young men were indeed promising talents.
"We've looked around. There are no shops for sale in the south city center, but there is a small shop for sale east of the south city center."
Shen Tang nodded.
"A small shop is fine. After all, our free clinic mainly treats common symptoms, so we don't need a place like a large clinic."
Just prepare medicine for common symptoms.
"But the private school's announcement is still a little better. It would be best if the environment is a little quieter."
Shen Tang made this request.
