476 Bringing Women into Politics

Wang Yuyan felt very proud because she was not a vase.

The concubine basically exists to meet two conditions, one is to give birth to a child for the man, and the other is to be there to look good.

Wang Yuyan is pregnant, and it seems that she is about to complete a major mission, which also increases her status in Baifu.

But in fact, women who are not pregnant do not have any decline in status. For example, Wan Xueer and Qinghe, Mochou do not count, because she does not seem to live in the Bai Mansion. According to modern terms, Mochou belongs to everyone, but he is still called the underground lover.

However, Mo Chou seemed to like this identity very much, at least not bound by the rules of the Bai Mansion.

Wang Yuyan returned to the capital city's Bai Mansion with an extremely proud look. As soon as she entered the mansion, she asked someone to tell her that Ashikari Chiku came to her courtyard for a question.

Why is it said to be a common saying? Because Wang Yuyan is higher than Ashikari Chiku. She is the daughter of the Wang family and is given by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. She is definitely the first concubine. Don’t say that you are the princess of the Japanese Kingdom, except for the Princess of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Yuyan does not need to bow to anyone.

Ashikari Chikui didn't seem to treat herself as a woman who was tall and arrogant. When he heard Wang Yuyan looking for her, he put down everything in his hand and rushed over immediately.

After delivering his salute, Ashikaga Chikui sat in the lower head.

"Young Master is very busy!" Wang Yuyan's opening remark was taught by Gao Gu, but it was not taught by one sentence. It only told her a general direction and an art of speaking. "Young Master is an important official of the country. He is naturally worried about family affairs. In Nanjing, there is a eldest lady, Princess Liyuan, who is in charge of it. Here I can only say that I will do my best to maintain all the affairs in the mansion!"

Ashikari Chikui didn't know how to answer, and first of all, she didn't understand what Wang Yuyan wanted to do.

"If you want to visit your relatives, you haven't been back for many years. You brought some gifts to your family. Some of those things were rewarded by the palace and the young master. But, where do you think you are?" Wang Yuyan's tone was a little stern.

Ashikaga Qianque gave a gift: "Please give Mrs. Yan a tip, if Qianque makes any mistakes, please punish me."

"It's not worth mentioning punishment. But our Bai Mansion is a royal relative, and even the young master laughs at the God of Wealth. Everyone knows that the Bai Mansion has countless wealth and treasures. Although these are annoying reputations, they also represent the views of the Bai Mansion in the world. If you go home, then you will be in Bai Mansion. Of course, you can't lose your dignity. This is the decency of the Bai Mansion and the decency of the Ming Dynasty. What's more, you are also a princess."

Ashikaga Chikui understood it, but still didn't understand it very much.

Ashikaga Chikui thought that he could have brought all his savings in the Ming Dynasty, and there were rewards from the Empress Dowager and the Queen of the Ming Dynasty, as well as some gifts from Bai Minghe.

Not to mention anything else, just a small box of golden pearls. It is a priceless treasure on the island of Wa. Not to mention the Ashikaga General's Mansion or the Emperor, how many of them have seen the 108 pearls of the same size and the color is like gold. Although the size is still smaller than the white pearls, who has seen the golden ones?

Wang Yuyan sighed: "Oh, you!"

After saying that, he clapped his hands gently, and Wang Yuyan's maid took a gift list in both hands and gave it to Ashikari Qianque.

Wang Yuyan then continued, "Young Master is busy with state affairs. Of course, someone has to worry about these reciprocity matters at home. This is a gift I have prepared, to give General Ashikaga in the name of the young master. Look. If you don't feel good, just mention whatever you want."

A gift list.

The beginning is ten famous knives, ten silk pieces, a pair of fragrant wood couches, and ten boxes of famous teas...

There are many types, hundreds of them, but the number is very small, each of which is a little bit.

"You go and prepare first. Before you set out tomorrow, you can mention whatever you want. It's okay to add any of these things ten times. And you also have to consider after you go home, are you not having a good sister, a brother in your family, or a close friend who tastes tea and talks about flowers together?"

Ashikari Chikui went out with the gift list, but the gift list made her heart surging like a huge wave.

What do you want?

Wang Yuyan had a sentence that touched her heart. She was caught and suffered for two years in the Ming Dynasty. But she used to be a princess, but now she is still a princess in Japan. She also has some friends and Ashikaga family. Since she is going back, why can't she be more glorious?

Moreover, when you go back, you will not be able to see someone you have acquainted with, whether it is the Ashikaga family or other families. It is necessary to prepare some gifts. As Wang Yuyan said, this is the face of the Bai Mansion, but isn’t it the face of yours?

Ashikari Chikui went back, and Wang Yuyan called Oda Kasumi again.

After Oda Kasumi came in, the sitting method was different. Wang Yuyan and Oda Kasumi sat side by side on the soft couch, holding hands very close. Oda Kasumi was also willing to make friends with Wang Yuyan. Because of Wang Yuyan's help, Bai Minghe left five nights in her house, which was much better than Ashikari Chiho.

Of course, it is because you are not lucky if you are not pregnant.

"The princess of the Ashikaga family will always bring some gifts when visiting relatives. Even if the young master has not explained this, I will help prepare some. I heard that you will also send someone home, so you can tell me what you want. Even if I don't make the decision, I can still ask you for it from the young master."

Ashikaga Chikui held the gift list. Although he didn't know the content, the thickness was amazing.

What do you want? What is the most worthy of asking for? What makes your status in the Oda family improve? So what does your father, the head of the Oda family, want the most?

The individual artillery of the Ming Dynasty is definitely a magic weapon. But there are not many things in the Ming Dynasty, and the Oda family needs this thing the most.

While Oda Kasumi was thinking, Wang Yuyan said again: "How about a horse? A real BMW, a sweat-blooded BMW."

Horses had special significance in ancient times, and a BMW was definitely no less than a tank. This gift made Oda Kasumi open his mouth wide in surprise. Although she was a woman, she also knew very well what the sweat-blooded BMW represented? This horse was a priceless treasure when sent back to the island of Japan.

Even BMWs were given away, so the rest of the things were naturally a minor problem.

Oda Kasumi said boldly: "I want to ask for some muskets for my family, but I don't dare to ask for the top-quality muskets in the head of the family's personal soldiers. It's great if the second-class ones are."

"This is a bit troublesome." Wang Yuyan looked worried, but she was very persistent: "Since she said she would help you, she would find a way to help you if she had trouble. But how much do you want?"

Is Wang Yuyan stupid? At least Kasumi Oda would never dare to think so, but he would not believe that Wang Yuyan was very sincere to him and should have a good use, because he represents one of the Ming Dynasty, the largest power in Japan, and he has great value to the white crane. As a newcomer to the mansion, Wang Yuyan must want to have his own circle.

After thinking about it over and over again, Oda Kasumi stretched out three fingers.

"Three thousand, this is too much, I'm afraid I can't do it." Wang Yuyan exclaimed.

Oda Kasumi wanted to explain that he only wanted 300 pieces, which was definitely not 3,000. But Wang Yuyan would give her the opportunity to explain, and then he spoke, "Three thousand pieces are not enough, and there are still some ways to do one thousand pieces. But you have to speak, I will find a way to get you some other things. Our Bai Mansion is not bad for these, but muskets are strictly controlled weapons. This requires the young master to nod, and the rest are easy to say."

And the rest.

This gave Oda Kasumi a new understanding of the influence of the White House. A concubine could help him get so much.

Wang Yuyan took Oda Kasumi out and wrote a note for Bai Minghe at the place where Donghuamen of the Palace was dedicated to rest. The person who received the note also made arrangements in advance, and the note was not handed over to Bai Minghe. Yu Qian was just waiting for this thing.

Shu Liang from the East Factory became the executor and collected all the supplies for Oda Kasumi that night.

Finally, Shu Liang complained politely: "Mrs. Yan will not dare to hand over a note outside the palace gate next time. The factory supervisor discussed a major event in the palace. Now, Lord Yu joked about our factory supervisor and personally approved 500 muskets, saying that he should not let you run away again."

Wang Yuyan shook her head, with an expression of not understanding at all.

So stupid! At least that's what Oda Kasumi thought, and said that the five hundred more were not allowed to run again. The reason must be that if Ashikari Chiku wants it, would Wang Yuyan come again?

Sure enough, Shu Liang said, "Mrs. Yan, although it is impossible to say that a bowl of water in this mansion is absolutely flat. But Mrs. Xiangcheng has it, but Mrs. Qianque doesn't. I'm afraid it's hard to say it. If this is spread, how can people say it?"

Shu Liang lowered his voice and said a few more words. Oda Kasumi didn't hear it, but after seeing Wang Yuyan's expression, she thought she could guess it, it was nothing more than that there could be obvious deviations in this mansion, which would make people criticize. At least on the surface, she could not show any attitude towards anyone.

In fact, what Shu Liang said was to make Wang Yuyan look like she suddenly realized.

Everything was carried out as planned, and the people like Dongchang were not feeling the difficulty.

The only thing that made Shu Liang and others uneasy was that they were afraid that Wang Yuyan would make a mistake and make people suspicious.

After Wang Yuyan returned home, Ashikari Chikui really came to ask for muskets. Of course, it was not a tough and open mind, but just out of the way. He was envious of Oda Kasumi for knowing the generality of his own, and also knew how to make his family like the gifts he chose more.

Wang Yuyan naturally went down the road and just put five hundred muskets and other weapons on it.

Everything was completed smoothly. Shu Liang went to the palace to report and said something more: "If you want to talk about this, you can let them ship to Nanjing first and then to Japan Island. This matter in Nanjing is probably more beautiful." Shu Liang implied that Wan Xueer is here in Nanjing. With Wan Xueer's mind, he sold these little girls from Japan and would count the money for her. (To be continued) r655
