Lady of the Lord From the East
Chapter 187:
The newly appointed Duke Williams family seems to be the most popular family in the entire royal capital.
Since Wei Wei moved out of the palace, Felix has also been successfully promoted, and the invitations to invite them to the banquet have flooded in like a tide again. After all, everyone knows that the couples in this family don't like to attend banquets, so who can please move them?
Although I don't like banquets, I really can't be too unsocial, so after living in the palace, Wei Wei and Felix chose some nobles' banquets to attend, and because she is now a duchess, Others only admire and flatter her, and the ladies are the most well-informed. As long as she reveals a little curiosity in the crowd, someone will automatically send all kinds of gossip news to her.
Of course, the biggest gossip in the capital at present is that of Crown Prince Edward. Wei Wei, who often visits the palace to see the crown prince's doctor, knows more than others, so from time to time, people will inquire about Prince Edward and that Sandy Campbell. Miss's situation.
Although everyone knows that the newly released little lovers have a very harmonious relationship, and we can hear the news of them traveling together from time to time, there are still some people who have not given up the idea of seeking the position of the crown prince, and are looking forward to their relationship breaking down every day. Another new love.
On this point, of course, Wei Wei will not express any opinion directly. When others ask her what she can say, she will say it, and if she can't, she will casually pass it on, and she will not tell anyone at all. His Royal Highness seems to be preparing to propose marriage.
That's how it is these days. When men and women of the basic marriageable age meet each other's eyes, they will directly proceed to the stage of proposal and marriage. Instead, they spend relatively little time with each other. Generally, they will spend a long time with each other, either because they are not old enough, or because of certain aspects. obstacles prevent them from going any further.
Prince Edward was very lucky this time. Although the girl he liked was not high-born, she was beautiful and smart, just the type that the king admired. After Prince Edward kept people close to the palace for a period of time, the king felt through observation that this girl Miss Campbell will be an excellent wife if she is trained well, so the king, who is still very satisfied with Prince Edward's vision, hinted a little to his son, and Prince Edward, who got the hint, began to happily prepare arrangements for a marriage proposal. .
And the point that needs to be mentioned in the middle is that Wei Wei has a very good relationship with that Miss Campbell now.
It's good that they often bring Elina to drink tea and chat with the three of them, spend a good afternoon relaxed and talk about everything, and then be picked up by their respective lovers and husbands.
And the reason why they were able to make friends in a short period of time was not only because the three of them were intentional about each other, but also because of their relationship with the king.
Apart from his son's health, the king is most concerned about whether he can have a healthy grandson, so for the future crown princess, he is also very concerned about her physical condition.
So Wei Wei was asked to see Miss Campbell again, and this was the first time they met in private.
After knowing that Miss Campbell was in very good health, even healthier than most of the noble ladies, the king let go of his last worry and encouraged the crown prince to continue their relationship with her. Of course, he did not forget to instruct Wei Wei if he could To keep Miss Campbell's body healthy, Wei Wei was responsible for arranging a reasonable daily life for Miss Campbell after a period of time. In addition to healthy food, she also had to do some exercise every day.
Considering that many sports are not suitable for noble women and are easily slandered as uneducated people, Wei Wei simply called Elina, who was relatively poor, and found a large room to remove the furniture and put a blanket on it, isolating it. The curiosity of others in the palace taught them yoga.
At first, this kind of exercise made the two (future) princesses in the class very novel, and they were very serious when they followed them. Slowly, after learning each class, their bodies were indeed better than before, and their feelings for each other were also improved. Heating up quickly, it quickly turned into a handkerchief where you can sit and chat about private topics.
After getting to know, Wei Wei is also very optimistic about the future crown princess. Xiandi is really a very smart girl, soft on the outside and tough on the inside, but at the same time she is not lacking in kindness and yearning for beautiful things. She has scheming, but ambition But not big.
In fact, after everyone got on well, Wei Wei happened to hear Xian Di talking to the only maid she took with her, and she realized that the goal of her banquet was not the crown prince, and she herself knew that her conditions were not worthy of her. Crown Prince, so she just wanted to see if she could find someone who was willing to marry her. The other party didn't even need to be a noble, even if it was just the second son and third son who did not inherit the title, as long as she could help her get out of the sea of misery, she would do it. willing.
However, the lucky girl was finally spotted by the crown prince, and the whole world immediately changed from black and white to color, and the road ahead was also full of light, which she did not expect.
"So, does His Royal Highness really ask for marriage?"
Where there is no gossip, Countess Nelson, after a few months of relaxation, the lady's husband successfully made the king forget his previous inappropriate behavior, Countess Nelson also moved in again. Elina's maid.
Of course, this maid and maid do not mean the same thing. The maids in the Prady Palace are all served by noble ladies. Their daily work is just walking with the hostess, chatting, participating in social activities, etc. They say they are maids, but they are actually women. Because the queen is now "seriously ill" and is not in the palace, there is only Elina, the hostess, in the palace for the time being, so she is the only one serving these ladies.
But Elina doesn't like to be with these ladies all day. She feels that their approach is too strong. Either she wants to talk from her, or she tries to instigate her to do some unwise things, such as destroying the feelings of the crown prince. What, this really makes her uncomfortable, so she likes to use Xiandi as a shield recently. If Wei Wei also enters the palace, it will become a threesome, so as to refuse the company of other ladies.
On the other hand, because Countess Nelson is friendly with Wei Wei and has no intention of destroying the relationship of the crown prince, she is occasionally invited to join their tea parties. In this way, Countess Nelson's status in the aristocratic circle will be restored. Promoted back, and once again became a social celebrity that everyone loves to invite.
Hearing her suddenly mentioning the matter of the crown prince, Wei Wei glanced around, and the other ladies who heard the topic had already pricked up their ears and were very helpless.
Although she still likes this countess with a wide range of sources, sometimes her attitude of doing things without looking at the occasions and gossip will occasionally make her want to respect and thank you.
However, after all the questions were asked, Wei Wei was not good at not answering, so she could only vaguely say, "Maybe, I don't know very well."
After that, regardless of other people's thoughts of wanting to continue discussing this topic, they immediately turned to talk about Sardinson's new town.
In fact, she has frequently attended banquets recently, not only to connect with other nobles, but also to find a group of clients for Sardinson's new city.
The first phase of the new city is nearing completion, and the houses in the residential area are naturally going to be sold. In the two residential areas, she is not worried about not being able to sell in the civilian area. Such a good house and the surrounding convenient and comprehensive public construction are enough. To make the people of Sardinson with better and better living standards tempted, waving their money bags to rush to buy those spacious and beautiful houses, but in the aristocratic area, they need to pay more attention to sell them.
After all, if other nobles have the ability, they will naturally yearn for the life of the royal capital. A newly established city in Sardinson, or a border city that has just been built and most of the areas have not been completed, is not a place where nobles will be willing to settle. For them, there is fear that it is not as good as their own territory.
However, Wei Wei and Felix did not expect those nobles to think of settling in Sardinson now. They just wanted a few prestigious nobles to buy a house in Sardinson as a holiday villa for the time being. In this way, If these nobles are used as propaganda, the other minor nobles and businessmen will naturally want to be neighbors with them. At that time, the house will naturally be sold.
Therefore, one of the candidates Wei Wei is looking for is Countess Nelson. The main reason is that this lady has a wide range of contacts, and her family is also a very powerful old-fashioned aristocrat. She is very prestigious in the aristocratic circle. Even the squires living in remote areas may have heard of the big nobles, and although their family almost fell, they have regained their footing now, and Felix helped her, so I persuaded her to buy one. Wei Wei thinks it shouldn't be difficult to set up a house.
The fact is also true. The Earl Nelson family was very grateful to the Williams family. After Wei Wei penetrated into her thoughts a little, the lady immediately agreed to buy a house from her. She didn't even look at the promotional picture of the house. Signed the contract directly, obviously using this to repay their family's help.
In addition, Countess Nelson is also very active in helping them to publicize them. She has only heard of some situations in Xincheng, and she has only seen hand-painted pictures. He preached the various benefits of Sardinson New Town, and described it as a paradise on earth, which made many ladies who did not know why also moved their minds and went to Wei Wei to ask for a house.
——This ability to persuade others is really a waste of not being a real estate agent.
However, although Countess Nelson is very articulate and exaggerates the new city, there are not many people who actually signed the contract to buy a house. But because the materials and designs of these houses are the best, the price set is not low. Originally, this amount of money is not a small amount for many nobles, not to mention that many nobles have just paid a large amount of money. Fines, the family has not much money, it is difficult to buy a house at this time.
Therefore, many ladies who were attracted by Countess Nelson immediately regretted the price when they heard the price, and felt that it was a waste to buy a house that they would not live in with so much money. There are only a few who did not poison them before. He was implicated in the incident, and at the same time, he planned to sign a house purchase contract after considering it with the nobles who had made good friends with the Duke family.
Although only six houses were sold in the end, Wei Wei was already satisfied. After all, the house was bought by customers before it was finished. It was a good start anyway, and she believed that when everyone saw the charm of the new city, she would not be needed. Whatever they do, they will take the initiative to buy a house.
But by then, the price will not be the current price.
While Wei Wei was selling the house, Felix on the other side took the initiative to give a house to Allen's father, the Duke of Devon Hill.
This duke was one of the king's most trusted nobles. When the king was seriously ill before, he also stood firmly on the king's side and helped him block many of the conspiracies of the Duke Romanov. Duke Love did not directly seize power when the king was sick, so after the king recovered, he paid more attention to the Duke of Devon Hill, and even one of the two newly promoted earls sent to take over the fief of Duke Romanov was him. people.
It can be said that the two most powerful nobles in the Prady Empire are Felix and the Duke of Devonhill. Of course, Felix of the latter is far inferior in terms of status and power, but everyone is very good. Optimistic about him, put them in the same position.
After all, the Duke of Devonhill is not too young, and he is completely incomparable with the young and strong Felix. It is obvious at a glance who has greater potential.
Of course, now the duke is still the most powerful noble in the empire, so Felix gave him the house in order to attract the attention of other nobles and let them buy a house in Sardinson. The publicity method that Wei negotiated, in Wei Wei's words, is the so-called celebrity effect.
For Felix's gift, the Duke of Devonhill was happy to accept it. He obviously knew the meaning of the other party's move, and the Duke himself was indeed a little curious about Sardinson County, and next to him was his son. In Princia, if the Duke of Devonhill thinks he has time, he can take his wife there to see his son and take a vacation.
Anyway, they are tired of living in the capital, it's time to look around.
To Felix's surprise, not long after he gave the Duke of Devonhill the house, the king went to him and bought two houses from him.
The two houses were his gifts to his two sons.
Even when buying a house, the king said, "When you go back, take Edward with you by the way, and he will trouble your family to entertain you this winter."
This was something the king had been thinking about early in the morning.
As the king's poison has been detoxified, the crown prince's health is getting better and better, and Wei Wei's idea of returning to Sardinson is getting deeper and deeper, so she has submitted her resignation to the king a few days ago.
Wei Wei's reasons are also very good. The crown prince's condition has stabilized now, his poison has been cured, and his body is improving. There is no need for Wei Wei to stay by his side all the time to take care of him. The rest of the nursing work can be done with the imperial doctor. Well, she also handed over the matters needing attention and the prescriptions that the crown prince will use in the future to the imperial doctor, so her departure now will not affect the follow-up treatment of the crown prince.
Even, worried that the crown prince accidentally developed asthma, Wei Wei also specially developed a medicine for asthma with the imperial doctor, let the crown prince carry it with him, and instructed everyone around him to use it immediately if he had symptoms of the disease. It can effectively suppress the crown prince's illness.
Originally, it was better to make it into a spray, but because there was no suitable material for the spray bottle, they finally chose to make it into a potion.
With the existence of such medicines, even if the crown prince is not around a doctor when he falls ill, as long as he drinks the medicine, he can guarantee that there will be no worries about his life.
Even because this medicine is formulated with medicinal herbs, it can be produced on a certain scale, which is very helpful to asthma patients. After obtaining permission from Wei Wei, this medicine was quickly spread among doctors and became a life-saver for many asthma patients. medicine.
Wei Wei's reputation has spread again among doctors and patients. In the past, everyone only knew that her medical skills were powerful, but they had no idea how powerful she was. Now, using the medicine she made, not only the patients thanked her, but also those who The doctor also admired her, and many people also wrote letters to her, including special thank you letters and inquiry letters to discuss medical issues with her. It is interesting to see these letters written by nobles with gorgeous rhetoric but little connotation. There are too many, so Wei Wei will also write back and discuss with the other party when she encounters a topic she is interested in. After going back and forth, her pen pals have increased a lot, but she is also very careful in this regard, and the pen pals she chooses are all those There are truly talented doctors, and the other party is basically older, so Felix is not jealous that she writes letters to other men, that is, every time Wei Wei writes a letter, he always takes a look Just rest assured.
This kind of open-minded peeping at Wei Wei is not annoying. She also knows that Felix is so suspicious, mainly because when he attended the banquet recently, there were always people expressing their goodwill towards Wei Wei, which made him not very happy. The guy who doesn't know how to look at people's faces ran out to show his hospitality while Wei Wei was waiting for Felix to pick up food for her on the balcony, and was almost caught by the furious Felix to a duel. The other party was afraid that he would die on the spot.
This happened a few times, not only Felix was uncomfortable, but Wei Wei became more and more uninterested in banquets, so as soon as the crown prince was almost done, she couldn't wait to leave the capital to end this long and boring banquet. banquet life.
Her reasons are good, and Wei Wei herself is not just an ordinary doctor, she is destined to never stay in the capital to see a doctor for the crown prince, and it is impossible for the king to stay strong, so although she is reluctant, she still agrees her request.
But although it is impossible for people to stay, they can send the crown prince over and let them take them away together.
To put it bluntly, the king was worried about the crown prince. He always felt that the crown prince was likely to get sick again after leaving Wei Wei, so on the premise that Wei Wei was going to leave, he simply asked her to pack the crown prince and take it away.
Originally, winter was not very good for Prince Edward, who was in poor health. He thought that the crown prince would also be sent to a warm area to cultivate in the winter, and part of Felix's territory was by the sea, such as Sloter. It's warmer in winter, so it's quite suitable for the crown prince to go there. Of course, the most important thing is that Wei Wei is there, he is more at ease.
So in the golden autumn of October, when various places entered the harvest season, Wei Wei and Felix finally left the capital and set off back to the long-awaited Sardinson.
In addition to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Campbell, who had successfully proposed to him, there was also the imperial doctor who had been in charge of treating him.
It is necessary for the imperial doctor to follow. After all, as the lord’s wife, Wei Wei is destined to be busy after returning to the territory. It is impossible to stay by the crown prince’s side every day. He is also looking forward to this trip to Sardinson. He knows that there are many medicinal herbs from the east in Sardinson, and the doctors in Sardinson have also been taught by Wei Wei. He is going to take advantage of this time. I have the opportunity to discuss medicine with them, and I think I will gain a lot.
It only takes seven or eight days to travel from the capital to Sloth by boat. The good news is that the crown prince and others who took the sea boat for the first time did not suffer from seasickness. Wei Wei’s return journey was faster than when he went to the capital. She was in a much better mood, so from time to time she would drag Felix to the crew to ask for tools for sea fishing. If she was lucky enough to catch delicious seafood, she would cook the food by herself, just like a pair of fish. It looks like going on vacation.
When the ship was finally about to dock at Sloth's pier, Wei Wei stood on the deck and saw a familiar figure waving at them.
"It's Lola!" Wei Wei waved her hand immediately after seeing the person coming.
Hearing that her brother and sister-in-law finally came back, Dolores, who had been alone in Sardinson Castle for several months, immediately ran to the pier to pick them up in person. She missed them so much.
When Wei Wei got off the deck, Dolores rushed to her with her skirt in hand and gave her a big hug.
"My God, you are finally back, and you want to kill me!"
It was rare for Dolores to be so excited, she screamed and danced while hugging Wei Wei, looking lively and anxious.
She complained, "If you don't come back, I want to go to the capital to find you."
God knows how she spent this period of time. Although she knew that her brother and sister-in-law were very busy, it was not until she took over the management of the castle herself that she finally understood what kind of heavy work it was.
And just the internal affairs of a castle made her feel exhausted, but the brothers and sisters not only have to manage the castle and manor, but also such a large territory to take care of, and even all kinds of business matters are their own. Deal with it, so that they have so many things to do, and they can still spare time to sit together, read books, drink tea, chat, and live a sweet married life. Now Dolores thinks about it and admires it.
How is that done? !
"Aren't we back here?" Wei Wei laughed, then let go of the hug, raised her hand to compare their height, and said uncertainly, "Lola, you seem to have grown a little taller?"
"Yeah." Said that Dolores is also very happy, and in fact, she has not only grown taller recently, but also developed breasts, but this kind of thing should not be said in public.
But she didn't say it, Wei Wei, who had just been hugged, still felt it, and she couldn't help but sigh that Adonis is really lucky.
After that, Prince Edward and others also got off the boat, and Wei Wei took her to see the crown prince.
