I was a princess in ancient times

Seeing that King Jia was finally willing to speak, Ji Xinxue heaved a sigh of relief.

He stared at King Jia intently, facing his mistakes with a calm and sincere attitude.

For King Jia to talk to him so solemnly, it must not be a trivial matter, maybe it is a fatal detail.

When King Jia asked him about the new clothes, suspicion flashed in Ji Xinxue's eyes, and he carefully recalled the styles of the new clothes.

Could it be that the places where the clothes were out of control were caught by someone?

It's a pity that Ji Xinxue is not very interested in new clothes.

When Zizhu first started delivering new clothes to Xiulou, Ji Xinxue would personally go to see the style of each piece of clothing.

Later, there were more and more new clothes in the embroidery building, and Ji Xinxue couldn't tell the difference between the clothes she saw today and the clothes she saw yesterday, so she simply didn't look at them, and asked Bijuan and Qingyun to put away the new clothes.

Now trying to recall the details of the new clothes, Ji Xinxue's head was at a loss, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

After Jia Wang finished asking, he folded his hands on his chest, and calmly took in all the changes on Ji Xinxue's face.

For the first time, he didn't see any guilty and shy emotions on Ji Xinxue's face. Jia Wang calmly breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense back, shoulders and neck relaxed a little.

But Jia Wang never expected that Ji Xinxue thought seriously first, and then said to him with a blank face, "Aye, I asked Bijuan and Qingyun to show you all the new clothes?"

Songnian saw the father and son, from a dazed face to a dazed face, and immediately lowered his head.

The father and son are very similar, and then they make almost the same expressions, it is simply...

The eerie silence in the study lasted for a long time, and suddenly King Jia's angry voice sounded, "What do I see your new clothes for?"

Do you want me to praise your new clothes, or do you want me to praise the person who made your new clothes?

Ji Xinxue didn't understand why King Jia was angry, so she answered honestly, "I can't remember exactly what the clothes look like, maybe I can't tell Aye the details, Aye can see for himself."

After all, Ji Xinxue's eyebrows flashed with deep worry, "If there is something wrong with my new clothes, will there be problems with the new clothes of Xiaojun Wang?"

I don't know if Yu Heng has put on the newly made clothes because he is greedy for coolness.

King Jia put his hands on his forehead, gave up guessing about Ji Xinxue, and said through gritted teeth, "How do I know if there is something wrong with your clothes?"

Shouldn't the one with the problem be the one who gave you the clothes?

There is nothing to be courteous about... hum.

After hearing King Jia's words, Ji Xinxue's face became even more bewildered, and suddenly felt a pain in the right cheek, which had already fallen into King Jia's hands.

Ji Xinxue was too familiar with this process, and immediately admitted her mistake vaguely, "Brother, I was wrong."

The previous unfavorable moves didn't help at all. Instead of letting go, King Jia raised his other hand to pinch Ji Xinxue's left cheek, "Why did Yu Heng give you clothes?"

The bewilderment between Ji Xinxue's brows immediately dissipated completely, and turned into burning anger, "I am very loyal to Xing Mingbau..."

King Jia didn't understand a single word, so he could only let go of the hand pinching Ji Xinxue's face, so that Ji Xinxue could speak properly.

When Ji Xinxue mentioned Yu Heng's colander behavior, he immediately regained his spirits.

It started with the fact that Yu Heng gave various festival gifts and birthday gifts worth more than 5 taels to people in the British government for more than a year.

Seeing that Yu Heng, as a young gentleman who was studying in Hanzhuyuan, even gave boxing gifts to the elders, it can be seen how shameless the elders of the British government are.

Then, although Yu Heng has realized his mistakes and intends to reform himself, but the habit of the colander has been formed, and he must be watched all the time in order to be completely correct.

……

Finally came to a conclusion.

If he doesn't accept the clothes, the clothes will be cheap to Yu Heng's cousins.

When Ji Xinxue first started complaining, Jia Wang still thought about analyzing Ji Xinxue's words word by word based on Ji Xinxue's expression.As Ji Xinxue's speech became faster and faster, and his expression became more and more distressed, Jia Wang had already closed his eyes, wishing to drive away the person who made him a headache.

After finally waiting for Ji Xinxue to shut up, Jia Wang rubbed his aching forehead, and said indifferently, "This is someone else's family business, what does it have to do with you?"

Ji Xinxue said without hesitation, "When the road is uneven, do you draw your sword to help?"

King Jia gave a 'tsk' sound.

He thought that although Xiao Si and Xiao Wu were similar in age, because of their different circumstances since they were young, their personalities had nothing in common, but he didn't expect...the part they had in common was stupidity.

Seeing Ji Xinxue talking a lot, Songnian specially poured a cup of warm water for Ji Xinxue.

King Jia raised his head, and silently looked at Ji Xinxue's raised jaw line, and the lower part was Adam's apple.

Now that Ji Xinxue is still young, that position is not obvious yet.

Maybe in another five years, or longer, there will be a completely different arc from that of women.

Back then when Ji Xinxue was allowed to survive as a girl, Jia Wang didn't think too far away, he just didn't want such a cruel fate of "born to be a medicine" to befall his child.

But he has more than one child, Xiaowu, he has other children.

So when he found out that Mrs. Zhong was really stupid enough to think that she could buy off the midwife that Emperor Yanguang sent to the palace with her begging and years of self-sacrifice, King Jia just watched coldly.

In the first two years, when Ji Xinxue hadn't learned to speak, Jia Wang had secretly visited Ji Xinxue.

It may be because of Zhong Su's fear during pregnancy, Ji Xinxue was extremely weak when she was a child.

King Jia once thought of letting Ji Xinxue 'suddenly die'. No matter where he goes from now on, he will have a safe and prosperous life, and he will not be a burden on other people in the palace.

If...if he can go one step further, he can find this child back, even if he can only be regarded as a adopted son, or stay by his side as a courtier, he can still share their father-son love.

During that time, King Jia suddenly fell in love with travel journals, secretly marking countless places with suitable climates, but was severely reprimanded by Su Zhaoyi who noticed the clues.

King Jia suddenly realized that it was a fluke for him to be able to deceive Emperor Yanguang once, and he must not risk his family's life to gamble a second time.

Everything that happened after that proved that Su Zhaoyi was not wrong.

When Ji Xinxue was three years old, Emperor Yanguang suddenly sent two imperial doctors who were only in charge of diagnosing the emperor's pulse and half of the imperial hospital to the fourth prince's mansion.

After a few days, the Fourth Prince was reprimanded, and King Jia knew that the imperial physicians and imperial physicians who were sent to the Fourth Prince's Residence were treating the little lady who was only one month younger than Ji Xinxue in the Fourth Prince's Residence.

The little lady caught a cold and nearly died.

Emperor Yanguang never forgot that because he was a little lady, he could not become Yaoyin's child.

This realization made King Jia terrified and angry, he chopped up the elm table to calm down.

King Jia had long recognized Emperor Yanguang's coldness.

Only those who are useful to Emperor Yanguang can be remembered by Emperor Yanguang.

Emperor Yanguang obviously believed the Taoist's words, and believed that the children born that year were beneficial to him, even if they were not needed temporarily, they were not allowed to be "wasted".

King Jia had no way to change Emperor Yanguang's mind, so he could only do his best to make Emperor Yanguang put Ji Xinxue behind.

Only by letting Ji Xinxue grow up normally, standing among the cousins, without seeming disobedient at all, would it not attract Emperor Yanguang's attention.

Ji Xinxue walked out of the courtyard in the corner of the palace, became the head of Ningshu County, and went to Guozijian Primary School to study, all of which were the result of King Jia's calculations.

Not only Mrs. Zhong, but also Wang Jia was thinking about what to do with Ji Xinxue when she was old enough to marry.

Before being unable to guess Emperor Yanguang's thoughts, the best way is to wait and see what happens, but all preparations must be made in advance.

Jia Wang had to grit his teeth to look for a 'son-in-law' candidate.

Zhong Twelve Lang is indeed a good choice.

As long as the people in the Zhongfu still have brains, they will know that if it is revealed that Ji Xinxue is a young man and not a young lady, no one in the Zhongfu can escape the thunderous wrath of Emperor Yanguang.

It's not that there are no smart people in the Zhong family, and Zhong Su's younger brother who is praised as the "top scholar" is indeed not in vain.

Just because King Jia started to think about the 'son-in-law' matter, it doesn't mean he can accept it calmly. Ji Xinxue really likes the little man like a little lady, or there is a little man who likes Ji Xinxue like a little lady.

He was just prepared!

Ji Xinxue knew nothing about Jia Wang's complicated thoughts. Although she was raised as a little lady, Ji Xinxue had never had any gender cognitive impairment.

He, Ji Xinxue, wears women's clothing and wears Buyao, a man.

His good brother gave him several sets of clothes, except for the problems with the clothes themselves, Ji Xinxue really couldn't think of any other possibility that would make Jia Wang mention this matter on purpose.

The dry throat was relieved, and Ji Xinxue let out a long sigh of relief, "Aye, the British government is so..."

King Jia's eyelids twitched violently, the complexities in his heart cleared away, he pressed Ji Xinxue's shoulder with one hand, and covered Ji Xinxue's mouth with the other.

In a short time, he didn't want to hear the word 'British government' again.

King Jia already believed that Ji Xinxue didn't have any special thoughts when receiving Yu Heng's clothes, and he didn't have any special affection for Yu Heng because of Yu Heng's behavior of giving them clothes.

But he still felt uneasy, and couldn't help probing, "What's the use of you worrying about Yu Heng so much? Why don't you find a backer for Yu Heng."

Ji Xinxue felt that what King Jia said was reasonable, but it was really hard to find a backer who could make the British government fearful. He leaned on King Jia's shoulder and whispered, "Prince Qinghe?"

King Jia shook his head slowly, "I don't see Yu Heng filial to my uncle on weekdays, but I want my uncle to help him. How can there be such a reason?"

"What good idea does Aye have?" Ji Xinxue looked at King Jia with sparkling eyes.

King Jia smiled very lovingly, gently rubbed Ji Xinxue's hair, and messed up Ji Xinxue's neat bun without accident, and said softly, "Find Yu Heng a Yue family who can protect him." , father-in-law helps son-in-law, it's only right and proper."

After hearing what King Jia said, Ji Xinxue subconsciously felt that this was an extremely brilliant idea, so she clapped her hands happily.

Exactly that!

"Is there any young lady of the right age in the Wang family of Qinghe County?" Ji Xinxue asked King Jia, and immediately had an idea, "I beg my sister to hold a banquet in the mansion and invite the young lady of the Wang family of Qinghe County, and then I will invite Yu Heng to the mansion up as a guest."

If it works, wouldn't it be a good marriage for childhood sweethearts?

With a blank expression, King Jia stretched out his hand and pushed Ji Xinxue's forehead, pushed Ji Xinxue away who was staring at him eagerly, and cursed, "How did you know that uncle was caught? Did uncle owe him? No !"

Ji Xinxue didn't understand why King Jia turned his face suddenly, but she could feel that King Jia's mood was much better than before, and shyly rubbed back to King Jia's side, "Aye, don't be angry, I'm just a little excited."

He had already woken up from the surprise of finally hearing King Jia respond to him and give him advice.

Marriage is not a child's play, and it should not be decided hastily because of temporary difficulties.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be cheating others and cheating oneself.

After confirming that Ji Xinxue only has affection for Yu Heng and has no other emotions, Jia Wang has lost interest in talking to Ji Xinxue.

Seeing that Ji Xinxue's answer today was still in his favor, King Jia finally came up with a serious idea for Yu Heng, "Princess Anguo's Mansion has been vacant for a long time, but he still remembers where his title came from."

Ji Xinxue's eyes lit up, and she gave King Jia a thumbs up.

That's right, why didn't he expect that Yu Heng is the king of a small county, and he has his own mansion.

Watching the back who was happier than when Fourth Lady left disappeared at the door, Jia Wang got up and went to the soft bed behind the screen, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

Songnian came over quietly, took off his boots for King Jia, sat on the wide chair covered with layers of silk and closed his eyes to rest.

"Take the pearls and rubies I brought back from the palace as heads and send them to Xiao Wu, and give him 5000 taels of silver to his shop." King Jia who seemed to be asleep suddenly said.

"Hmm," Song Nian responded.

King Jia opened his eyes, his eyes were full of sharpness, "Apart from Yu Heng, is there anyone..."

Song Nian dragged out a soft pillow from behind and hugged it in his arms, and said slowly, "The grandson of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, the lord of the Dingbei Houfu and another lord of the British government have a good relationship with the county lord. , but they are not as close as the little county king and the county head."

The sound of light knocking rang out regularly, and King Jia's indiscriminately angry words were almost covered up, "Will he attack the imperial concubine of the clan?"

Songnian suddenly felt itchy in his palms, looked down and found that the soft pillow in his arms had been torn to pieces by him.

He sighed silently, put the tattered soft pillow back on the wide chair, got up and knelt next to King Jia's ear, with an inaudible voice, "No scruples, no guesses."

Jia Wang sneered, closing his eyes to hide the ridicule he was addressing.

Poor his little Wu, the so-called sons and phoenixes, even if they give up their dignity and want to live, they can't expect to be stable.

What Song Nian said was right, a person who acted without scruples like Emperor Yanguang had no way of guessing what he would think.

Even the imperial concubine of the imperial family is just a courtier in front of Emperor Yanguang, how can she be better than her granddaughter?

Thinking of the increasingly tense atmosphere in the palace, King Jia gritted his teeth fiercely.

For the first time, he hoped that Aniang and Aunt could misjudge the situation at the same time.

It would be great if all the rumors circulating in the palace were true.

After Ji Xinxue left from the study in the front yard, she hesitated for a moment at the intersection between the front yard and the back yard, and decided to show Mrs. Zhong the assessment results in person.

He has not seen Mrs. Zhong for more than half a month, and this period of time is unprecedentedly long for the two people who used to get along day and night.

Before Ji Xinxue reached the gate of Qixia Courtyard, she saw Mrs. Zhong leaning against the door with a lantern in her hand. This gave Ji Xinxue an illusion, as if he had told Mrs. Zhong in advance that he would come to visit at this time Mrs. Zhong, Mrs. Zhong was waiting for him at the door.

But the illusion was only for a moment, and Ji Xinxue was very sober.

Until he left the study in the front yard, he had planned to let Bijuan and Caishi take the assessment results to greet Mrs. Zhong, and had no intention of visiting Mrs. Zhong in person.

Because of the long delay in King Jia's study, Ji Xinxue came to Qixia Courtyard in person on an impromptu basis when Mrs. Zhong returned to Qixia Courtyard from Wangfei's courtyard every day.

Seeing Ji Xinxue, Mrs. Zhong froze on the spot and rubbed her eyes fiercely, then immediately trotted towards Ji Xinxue, causing the servants at the gate of Qixia Courtyard to exclaim.

She stopped at a position only two steps away from Ji Xinxue, awkwardly supported the golden hairpin on her head, looked at Ji Xinxue carefully from top to bottom, before she could speak, her eyes were already colored, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Slim gone."

Ji Xinxue almost had red eyes with Mrs. Zhong.

How can he be thin?

Ever since leaving Mrs. Zhong's discipline and being in charge of the house, Ji Xinxue not only has everything going smoothly, but also has her own small kitchen, and someone will cook for him if she wants to eat in the middle of the night.

When she was in Hanzhuyuan, Ji Xinxue also ate more appetizing dishes at Lenghuiyuan, and her appetite unknowingly increased, and she ate half a bowl of rice every meal than before.

The thin person is Mrs. Zhong, and Ji Xinxue's plump figure that she remembered for many years has become slimmer, and her clothes are looser than before.

Ji Xinxue walked up to Mrs. Zhong silently, took Mrs. Zhong's arm, and led Mrs. Zhong to the Qixia Courtyard with gentle and firm strength, "What good food does Auntie have here? I won't lose weight if I eat more. "

Mrs. Zhong's stiff body gradually softened, she tightly held onto Ji Xinxue's arm, and repeatedly called Nanny Li and Caizhu to ask for food in the big kitchen, citing a list of dishes that Ji Xinxue liked to eat.

Ji Xinxue intentionally made Mrs. Zhong happy, and when she showed the assessment results to Mrs. Zhong, she deliberately showed an expectant expression.

Mrs. Zhong gently smoothed the wrinkles on the examination results, her lips moved silently, she swallowed what she wanted to say, and took Ji Xinxue's hand and said, "Aniang's Xue Nu is really amazing."

After hearing the imaginary praise, Ji Xinxue found that neither he nor Mrs. Zhong became happy because of it.

This made the smile on the corner of Ji Xinxue's mouth froze a bit, he took a sip of tea, and nonchalantly asked Mrs. Zhong about his experience of going to the main courtyard of the princess to listen to the lectures by female officials.

Mrs. Zhong showed a wry smile. When she was preparing for the female officer exam, she never studied as hard as she is now.

Fortunately, among the "classmates" who listened to the book together, there were no particularly smart people.

But precisely because of this, everyone is afraid that if they don't work hard, they will be left behind, so they can only spur themselves more strictly.

In a short period of time, Mrs. Zhong has memorized half of "The Analects of Confucius" by heart, and she can also recite the examples given by the female officials when they lectured to them.

Ji Xinxue listened to Mrs. Zhong complaining in a low voice, and the smile that disappeared from the corner of her mouth reappeared, and she also told Mrs. Zhong some interesting things about the school, most of which were about the rivalry between Cui Qingzhi and the Lu sisters.

After thinking about it, he felt that the only way to talk about topics that had nothing to do with him and Mrs. Zhong would not make the atmosphere worse for no reason.

The Lu sisters, who often made Bai's sisters ashamed, suffered a lot at the hands of Cui Qingzhi, but the person they hated the most was not Cui Qingzhi or Mrs. Liang, but Kang Qi who had just started class at Hanzhuyuan.

The Lu sisters always tried their best to bully Kang Qi when Cui Qingzhi and Mrs. Liang were away, and Ji Xinxue had encountered several scenes where the two sides met on narrow roads.

Most of the time, Kang Qi would stand still and hang her head to wipe away tears when being run over by the Lu sisters.

Every time Ji Xinxue discovers a dispute in the distance, she will immediately turn her head and leave, never giving anyone a chance to involve him in it.

When Mrs. Zhong heard the first half of Ji Xinxue's words, her expression was always calm. When she heard Ji Xinxue say that she would immediately avoid disputes, she immediately beamed with joy, and put her arms around Ji Xinxue's shoulders and called her sweetheart repeatedly.

After dinner, Mrs. Zhong took out a royal blue floating brocade horse-face skirt from her room. This was when she returned to Qixia Courtyard from the princess's courtyard every day and she was not asleep. From cutting to sewing She made the dress for Ji Xinxue herself without any fake hands.

After listening to Nanny Li and Caizhu tell the story of the dress, Ji Xinxue became more resigned. Knowing that it would take a long time for Mrs. Zhong to change, she let go and promised Mrs. Zhong that at least every two days, she would come to spend the evening with Mrs. Zhong. meal.

When going to school the next day, Ji Xinxue deliberately waited for Yu Heng at the gate of Hanzhuyuan, and couldn't wait to tell Yu Heng the good idea Jia Wang provided.

Seeing Ji Xinxue from a distance, Yu Heng's footsteps became faster silently. When he walked in front of Ji Xinxue, his forehead was already covered with hot sweat, and his mouth could hardly hide his panting.

Ji Xinxue was afraid that Yu Heng would catch a cold, so she quickly took out her handkerchief and asked Yu Heng to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

Before Ji Xinxue could speak, Yu Heng had already bent down, obediently waiting for Ji Xinxue to wipe his sweat.

Seeing this, Ji Xinxue didn't mention asking Yu Heng to wipe the sweat by herself. She held up a handkerchief and stuck it on Yu Heng's forehead, and said with a sneer, "What are you in such a hurry for? I won't disappear suddenly."

Yu Heng smiled shyly, and was very honest, "I'm afraid you will get impatient, so I left first."

Zizhu and Qingzhu trotted after being chased by Yu Heng, who were far behind. Zizhu was able to keep his face unchanged, but Qingzhu's face was already flushed, and it was only because of Zizhu's help that he didn't sit on the ground.

Ji Xinxue handed the wet handkerchief to Zizhu.

It happened to be a new handkerchief, so I gave it to Yu Heng directly.

Seeing that the person receiving the handkerchief was not Zizhu but Yu Heng, Ji Xinxue didn't care, "Next month is Qingming, are you going to ask a Taoist priest to do something, or a monk?"

The smile in Yu Heng's eyes gradually turned into silence, and he followed Ji Xinxue's side for a long time, then said in a hoarse voice, "This year is the second year, there will be no big sacrifice, and I will take Aniang's tablet from the imperial tomb next year." Take it back."

Ji Xinxue looked at Yu Heng who couldn't hide her sadness, and suddenly regretted that she didn't tell Yu Heng to visit Princess An's mansion, but chose to go around and let Yu Heng think for herself, so that she accidentally touched Yu Heng's sad things .

Now that the matter has come to this point, Ji Xinxue can only finish speaking in one breath, so as not to provoke Yu Heng to feel uncomfortable again.

"Your aunt's ceremonies can be done next year, and the offerings of Princess An and the princess Xianglin of all generations can't be ignored." Ji Xinxue stopped, looked into Shangyu Heng's dark eyes, and said earnestly, "You have to learn to be Starting from the house of Princess Anguo's Mansion."

Only by doing what the heir of Princess An's Mansion should do, can you use the power of Princess An's Mansion to protect yourself.

Yu Heng was stunned, this was the first time someone said such words to him, and he was even a little flustered, because he only knew about the memorial days of his mother Yu Yu and his grandmother Yu An, and he knew almost nothing about his great-grandmother Yu Baoer and his great-grandmother Princess An .

After a while, Yu Heng said in a hoarse voice, "What should I do?"

Ji Xinxue looked at Yu Heng with hesitation.

He didn't know either.

"I don't want to ask Lin Zhao and Mo Changshi." Yu Heng lowered his head in frustration. He no longer remembered whether Lin Zhao and Mo Changshi had said similar things to him.

Every year during the New Year's Eve, he would follow the Prince of England and go to the ancestral hall of the British government to worship the ancestors of the Qi family, but he never thought that there was also an ancestral hall in the residence of Princess An.

I always feel shameless in the face of Lin Zhao and Mo Changshi who are wholeheartedly toward the Princess Mansion.

Ji Xinxue resisted the urge to touch the top of Yu Heng's head, and suggested, "Are you going to ask the Doctor of Rites?"

Yu Heng's eyes lit up, "Are you going with me?"

"My aunt asked me to deliver a letter to my uncle." Ji Xinxue apologized.

The light in Yu Heng's eyes quickly extinguished, his face was full of disappointment besides frustration, he said to Ji Xinxue, "Today I have your favorite rabbit leg, I will ask Zizhu to take the rabbit leg to Guozixue, you and Zhong Eat with the teaching assistant."

Hesitation flashed in Ji Xinxue's eyes, not only he loves to eat rabbit legs, but Yu Heng also loves to eat them.

Yu Heng lowered his head, didn't see the change of expression on Ji Xinxue's face, and muttered in a low voice, "Will your cousin visit your uncle at noon? Bring some food for your uncle and cousin too, so that you don't give in to them. If you can’t eat rabbit legs, and you’re not used to Guozi’s dishes, you’ll probably starve in the afternoon.”

"Just leave me two dishes." Yu Heng held up two fingers, "Let Qingzhu and the others go to the restaurant for dinner."

"I'll ask Bijuan and Luzhu to deliver the letter for me, and accompany you to find the Doctor of Rites." Ji Xinxue took a deep breath, covering her aching conscience and interrupting Yu Heng.

The Doctor of Rites has his own residence in Hanzhuyuan. When Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng came to visit, the Doctor of Rites was dancing his sword.

There is no phenomenon of emphasizing literature over military affairs in this dynasty. It has always been an elegant taste for civil servants to dance swords.

After seeing Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue, the doctor of etiquette not only didn't stop, but opened and closed his movements even more, until he completely stopped, then smiled and nodded to Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue who were standing under the tree all the time, "Little County King, County Lord."

Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue returned the gift, and handed the pastry they held in their hands to the doctor of etiquette.

Doctor of Etiquette is very knowledgeable, and it was the first time that a student came to him to ask questions.

The students not only have a distinguished status, but also know how to respect the teacher, and come to the door with a thank you gift in person.

Although the gift of thanks is just a snack, even if it is a snack from Baiweizhai, the value is not precious, but the doctor of etiquette cares more about whether the students are polite, and doesn't care about the value of the gift.

Therefore, after hearing Yu Heng's question, the doctor of etiquette first praised Yu Heng's filial piety, then answered Yu Heng's question with all his heart, and even took a pen to write down the process and needs for Yu Heng when worshiping ancestors Various tributes prepared.

Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue stood next to the Doctor of Ritual Studies, watching the Doctor of Rites write down several large chapters in lower script, feeling full of fear in their hearts.

Fortunately, they came to ask the doctor of etiquette for advice, otherwise Yu Heng might make a big joke.

According to the Doctor of Etiquette, the 'ancestor' of Princess Anguo's Mansion is Princess Anguo, and it can even be traced back further.If you are doing ancestor worship every year, you only need to be strict and serious, but if you are interrupted by anything in the middle, you must first plead guilty to the ancestors and explain the reason before proceeding with the ancestor worship process.

Like Yu Heng, the first time he worshiped his ancestors as the heir king, he still needs to invite the elders of the family to witness, invite guests, and declare that he officially inherits the Princess An's mansion.

Anyone who fails to do one of these points is a disrespectful act of disrespecting the ancestors.

Yu Heng listened attentively to the words of the doctor of etiquette, wishing to keep every word in his heart, but Ji Xinxue only remembered one sentence.

'Declared that he officially inherited the An Guo Princess Mansion. '

Well, in this case, wouldn't Yu Heng have a reason to move out of the British government?

No matter how unscrupulous the people in the British government are, it is impossible to chase after Princess An's residence to bully Yu Heng.

Both Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue were thinking about worshiping their ancestors, so they were inevitably absent-minded during the afternoon class.

As soon as the doctor of lectures left the school, Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue couldn't wait to get up and walk to the door, causing other people to look over.

Zhang Siyi looked at the vacant seat on the left, then at the vacant seat on the right, and suddenly felt a faint sense of loneliness.

It is now the middle of March, and it will soon be April.

According to Dr. Li Xue's suggestion, Yu Heng has two choices.

The first option is that Yu Heng worships the ancestors before April, invites at least the elders of the clan and five guests to witness, confesses the sins to the ancestors, and then strictly follows the procedure of the great sacrifice to worship the ancestors.When it's Qingming, just a small sacrifice will do.

The second option is to wait until the Qingming Festival to worship the ancestors, which can save a small sacrifice, but every family has to worship the ancestors during the Qingming Festival, and there may not be too many people who should be invited by Yu Heng to watch the ceremony.

Ji Xinxue took the ancestor worship process and the list of sacrifices to be prepared written by the doctor of etiquette to Yu Heng, studied it over and over for a long time, and suggested that Yu Heng choose the nearest day to worship the ancestors and keep everything simple.

Since meeting Ji Xinxue, Yu Heng did not immediately agree to Ji Xinxue's words for the first time.His face was full of guilt, "Because of my negligence, Princess Anguo's mansion has not worshiped the ancestors for two years. If I keep everything simple this year, I will not be able to live with it."

Ji Xinxue looked around and saw that there was no one else in the room except him and Yu Heng, so she suddenly leaned over to Yu Heng's ear, her voice was soft and quick, "It's not safe anywhere recently, I'd better be careful."

The news of the concubine being punished in the palace has never stopped, and the frequency of reprimands by the officials of the previous dynasty is much higher than that of the previous few months.

Immediately, Yu Heng's ears turned red, and his hands under his wide sleeves were quietly clenched.

After Ji Xinxue retreated, she deliberately explained to Yu Heng, "I said keep everything simple, but keep everything simple at the banquet. It is enough for the elders in the clan to have the witness of Qinghe County King. You can ask Qinghe County King to help invite other guests. Although the ancestor worship ceremony is done grandly and solemnly."

Inviting only those who are in charge of the family and not family members will not attract Emperor Yanguang's attention, and it will also prevent the British government from acting as a demon as much as possible.

Duke Ying couldn't come back from the imperial mausoleum, and the prince still wanted face, and most of Qi's in-laws would not be on the invitation list of Prince Qinghe.

Yu Heng still had hesitation on his face, "But..."

"No but!" Ji Xinxue interrupted Yu Heng aggressively, pressed the eyelids that were jumping faster and faster, and said to Yu Heng seriously, "Do you believe that I will not harm you?"

Yu Heng nodded without hesitation, of course he believed it.

He just has some regrets.

If Prince Qinghe invited the guests on his behalf, he would have no reason to invite Ji Xinxue to Princess Anguo's mansion to watch the ceremony.

Otherwise, it would be too strange for a little lady to stand among the heads of the whole courtyard.

Although he was thinking strangely in his heart, Yu Heng's eyes showed yearning faintly.

It's a pity that Ji Xinxue was ruthless, not only ruthlessly refused when Yu Heng tried to invite him, but also ignored Yu Heng's loss, and immediately explained many important things to Yu Heng, without giving Yu Heng any time to feel melancholy.

Even if Ji Xinxue tries to keep things short, Yu Heng is obedient to Ji Xinxue and hardly raises any objections to Ji Xinxue's words.It took a lot of time for Ji Xinxue to explain everything she wanted to say.

The four ladies all arrived at the gate of the Guozijian, and then turned back to Hanzhuyuan to look for Ji Xinxue, first ran to Xiulou, and then came down to Lenghuiyuan accompanied by Qingyun, and came in aggressively to arrest people.

Ji Xinxue knew she was in the wrong, and repeatedly apologized to Si Niangzi, and only had time to ask Yu Heng to choose the nearest date, and don't delay.

Yu Heng stood at the gate of Lenghui Courtyard and watched Ji Xinxue and Si Niangzi leave. Before the two of them completely disappeared from his sight, Ji Xinxue coaxed Si Niangzi to smile without turning her head to look at him.

Qingzhu rubbed his eyes, making sure that he could no longer see County Lord Ningshu's back, and suddenly felt that the little county king who was still standing at the gate with a cold face, looking at the direction in which County Lord Ningshu left was familiar.

Like what?

Qingzhu thought hard, but still couldn't come up with an answer.

When Yu Heng came to Linlang Pavilion, the old shopkeeper was taking stock of the account books.

Since going to the Guozijian to study, Yu Heng has a lot of expenses, but also a lot of expenses.

The old shopkeeper made a rough calculation and found that Yu Heng's total expenses had been decreasing, so he quickly put down his abacus, strode up to Yu Heng who was sitting by the window, his eyes were full of distress, "Little Prince, have you had any trouble recently?" happy thing?"

Why don't you even have the mood to spend money?

Yu Heng looked at the old shopkeeper inexplicably.

He's been in a good mood lately, isn't it obvious enough?

Thinking of his negligence in the important matter of ancestor worship in Princess An's Mansion, Yu Heng suppressed the words that had reached his throat, and shook his head reservedly, "It's okay."

The old shopkeeper said to Yu Heng earnestly, "If there is anything the little princess likes, just buy it back. The old princess inherited so much property from the eldest princess, and saved half a lifetime of wealth, which is enough for you to spend a few lifetimes recklessly. Don’t hesitate to spend money.”

Yu Heng nodded solemnly, took out the long slip in his arms and handed it to the old shopkeeper, "Can you get these things ready within three days? Don't be stingy with money, it doesn't matter if you pay five or ten times the price."

Hearing the words, the old shopkeeper not only didn't feel that Yu Heng was extravagant, but showed a reassuring smile, unfolding the list, and said, "Don't worry, Xiaojun Wang, I just..."

Yu Heng blinked his eyes, tried his best to cover up his guilty conscience, and pretended to casually look at the old shopkeeper's expression. Before he could lower his head, he was caught off guard by the old shopkeeper's legs.

The old shopkeeper buried his face in Yu Heng's lap, and knelt in front of Yu Heng, weeping uncontrollably.

"I know...I know you will never forget that your roots are in the Princess Mansion." Lin Zhao whimpered, "The Princess will be very happy to see you back."

Yu Heng looked down at the brass key that Lin Zhao forced into his hand, and his flustered expression gradually calmed down.

The brass key is about the length of a palm, with the word 'An' engraved on the front and the word 'Xianglin' ​​engraved on the back. It is the key to the gate of Princess An's Mansion.

Yu Heng heard from Yu Yu that he was born in Princess An's Mansion, but he had never been to Princess An's Mansion. Even if Yu Yu passed away, everyone would call him Xiaojun Wang, and he never thought of visiting Princess An's Mansion. look.

The old shopkeeper actually wore the key to Princess An's Mansion on his body, as if he was waiting for it all the time.

Yu Heng, who was waiting, suddenly felt sad. He raised his head, held the brass key tightly in one hand, and lightly put the other hand on the shoulder of the old shopkeeper. They greet you."

It only took the old shopkeeper a day and a half to prepare all the items needed for the grand ceremony.

The things he prepared were more comprehensive than those listed by the Doctor of Etiquette, and all of them were luxurious and detailed, as if he had been preparing these things for a long time, but he never had the chance to take them out.

Yu Heng asked Lin Zhao to prepare another ceremony, and invited the Doctor of Rites of Hanzhuyuan to preside over the ceremony on behalf of Princess Anguo's Mansion.

He changed into extra solemn clothes in Linlang Pavilion, and went to Qinghe County King's Mansion to meet Qinghe County King in person.

King Qinghe heard his servant say that it was the king of the small county who visited him, and subconsciously said, "Which king of the small county?"

"Besides Yu Heng, who else can be called the king of the small county?" Ji Cheng answered the king of Qinghe county before the servants, his eyes flashed with worry, "Grandfather, are you confused?"

King Qinghe was so angry that he threw up his head and picked up his crutches to beat Ji Cheng.

Ji Cheng stepped back again and again, "Didn't you promise grandma that you would not beat your children and grandchildren in the future? If you can't speak, it doesn't count!"

King Qinghe sneered again and again, and pinched Ji Cheng's face fiercely, "If you dare to file a complaint, little bastard, I will draw you out of the family tree!"

Yu Heng drank a cup of tea in the flower hall, only to see the servant who greeted him go back and forth, respectfully following behind the young man in brocade.

Ji Cheng took the lead in nodding to Yu Heng, "Nephew"

Yu Heng, who took the initiative to stand up, nodded silently,
