Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine
Chapter 261: A Guest Comes
The autumn mood in the capital is stronger than that in Yangzhou, and occasionally a few yellow leaves fall from the precious trees planted in the palace. But before they fall into pieces, they will be cleaned up by the palace maid.
Several little palace maids were cleaning under the tree boredly, and someone wearing mysterious clothes walked towards them with a tall and straight posture.
After being reminded by one of the little palace maids, the others immediately stopped what they were doing, stood in a row, and bowed their heads to the visitor.
As soon as they saw the man's feet walking over, several people raised their heads and took a peek, but unfortunately they only saw the man's profile with clear lines. But just a profile of his face was enough to make the little palace maids extremely excited.
After the people walked away, the few maids reluctantly looked back.
"Master Lu is so impressive." Someone sighed.
"How can you not be impressive? The son of Marquis Zhongjing has become the deputy commander of the Expert Department at a young age. Looking at the whole of Da Yin, how many such people are there?"
"Yes, the key is that he is good-looking. If I could see him every day, I would be willing to do whatever job he asks me to do." A palace maid held her hands in front of her chest with a look of obsession on her face.
Another person laughed disdainfully, "Stop dreaming here. How can Mr. Lu be imagined by people of our status?"
"I just wanted to take a look at him and didn't think about anything else. Do you have delusions about Mr. Lu?"
"Do you know that in your own heart?"
"Oh, you—"
Several little palace maids were making a fuss.
Lu Siheng was summoned by the emperor to come.
"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
The emperor sat at the desk and raised his head, "You will set off for Yangzhou immediately to escort the family of Dong Jingtang, the new left deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, to the capital."
Lu Siheng was quite surprised. The left deputy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate
Shi was just a third-grade official, so why did he need to be escorted into Beijing by an expert department?
"Your Majesty ordered his subordinates to escort him, but what dangers will Mr. Dong encounter along the way?"
"It's not that there will be danger. I just sympathize with the fact that he was framed. His family was exiled in Mobei for three years, and his only daughter died on the way. He is a rare virtuous minister, and letting you go represents my attitude."
"I understand. Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will protect Mr. Dong and his family from entering the capital safely."
"Go ahead."
Lu Siheng withdrew from the main hall. The Holy Lord handed him one thing after another, which made it impossible for him to spare even two days to find Yun Ling.
He asked the people below to inquire about it, but after half a year, they still found nothing. Even if their people go out to inquire, they are limited. They can only explore while on errands and cannot stay for a long time.
There was no way to continue like this. Maybe after finishing this errand, he would try to take a few days off from the Holy Master to find Yunling's whereabouts in person.
Dong Jiafu and Dong Jialin stayed at the inn in Linqing County for another night before returning home.
On the second day after returning, we received a guest at home.
Not long after he left, Feng Jiyuan came again, but this time he didn't come alone. He was accompanied by his parents.
"Brother Dong, Madam Sister-in-law, congratulations -" Feng Meng said loudly as soon as he entered the door.
Their arrival made Dong Jingtang and Xu Yiwan overjoyed.
Dong Jingtang hurried up to greet you, "Gengping, why didn't you say hello when you came, so I could pick you up outside the city."
"We brothers don't need to be so polite. I heard that the imperial court has appointed you, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to catch up with you in Beijing to take up your appointment, so I rushed here after receiving the news."
"Oh, Sister Xu, the person next to you
It's Afu. Good boy, come here and let me see. "Mrs. Feng has a round face and speaks with a cheerful energy that makes people feel close to her when they see her.
"Come Afu, this is your Aunt Feng." Xu Yiwan took Dong Jiafu's hand and came to Mrs. Feng.
Mrs. Feng took Dong Jiafu's other hand and looked at her carefully.
"Afu has grown taller. I've heard from Ji Yuan that the past three years have been hard on you. Now you're fine, you're finally back."
Unlike Xu Yiwan's hands, Mrs. Feng's hands were soft and smooth. Dong Jiafu didn't know how to respond for a while.
At this moment, Mrs. Feng withdrew her hand, turned around and took a wooden box from Feng Jiyuan's hand, opened it and placed it in Dong Jiafu's hand.
"Knowing that you have forgotten what happened in the past, these jewelry will be treated as a meeting gift from your aunt."
Dong Jiafu lowered his head and saw that the wooden box was full of various gold and jade jewelry.
Xu Yiwan also saw it and said hurriedly: "What Sister Fang gave me is too expensive. Afu is still young, how can she use so many expensive jewelry?" She was about to return the box.
Mrs. Feng saw this and took the first step to hold down her hand on the box.
"Afu is already a big girl. Sister Xu can't treat her like a child. Besides, you are going to the capital. What can you do if you don't have some decent jewelry on you? Put it away quickly."
Xu Yiwan had no choice but to say: "Let Sister Fang spend money."
Dong Jiafu also spoke: "Afu, thank you Aunt Feng for the generous gift."
"Let's go in and talk." Dong Jingtang said sideways.
As everyone walked towards the hall, Mrs. Feng quietly glanced at her son and saw that his eyes were fixed on Dong Jiafu.
Mrs. Feng looked away and stole
Smile, she discovered Jiyuan's feelings for Afu years ago. They also like the child Afu and are happy to see the success of their two children.
Jiyuan talked endlessly about Afu at home. He even asked him to prepare the box of jewelry.
After everyone sat down, Feng Meng said: "Afu survived the disaster and Brother Dong was promoted. It can be said to be a double happiness."
"Yes, I think Sister Xu's complexion is much better than when she first returned to Yangzhou." Mrs. Feng continued.
Xu Yiwan said happily: "It's all thanks to Afu. She used dietary therapy methods to prepare a lot of healthy food for us."
"Yeah," Mrs. Feng looked at Dong Jiafu with brighter eyes, "Ji Yuan said that Afu learned medical skills from a doctor, which was immediately useful. Sister Xu is really lucky, if I also have it How wonderful a daughter like Afu would be."
Dong Jiafu felt a little embarrassed when she saw her, "Aunt Feng was so complimentary."
"When does Brother Dong plan to come to Beijing?" Feng Meng asked about business.
"In two days." Dong Jingtang replied, unable to delay it any longer.
Feng Meng turned around and saw the urgency in Feng Jiyuan's eyes, and knew what he was urging. As he wished, he said: "Jiyuan will go to Beijing next spring to take the exam. I want him to go with Brother Dong this time. I asked him My friend bought a house in the capital, so he was allowed to concentrate on preparing for the exam there, and he could also ask for advice from Gabor."
"This is a good thing, but it's not worth asking for advice. Ji Yuan's talent and learning are not inferior to those of dogs."
Xu Yiwan was also very happy after hearing this, and blurted out: "Why don't we buy a house? Just let Jiyuan live in our house."
Dong Jingtang also nodded, "The Holy Lord will arrange it for me."
It also makes sense to arrange residences and let Jiyuan live in our place. "
"You have just arrived in Beijing. You must be busy with a lot of things, so we won't let Ji Yuan cause trouble. I have discussed with the master to buy a house. We want to visit you in the future and have a place to live." Mrs. Feng said.
In fact, the main reason is for Ji Yuan and A Fu's consideration. The two children want to get married in the future. If Ji Yuan lives in the Dong family now, some people may make irresponsible remarks.
