Sure enough, two men walked in, one was an old man in his sixties, and the other was a middle-aged uncle in his forties. Both of them could be her grandfather and father, and they were still thinking about her. She didn't know them, let alone see them.
"Is that Mrs. Li Yun?" University Scholar Jiang asked excitedly. University Scholar Jiang walked into the room and looked at Li Yun carefully. She didn't look like a village woman at all, but more like the daughter of a wealthy family.
Doctor Zheng, the Imperial Censor, was also looking at the woman in front of him. She was the woman his nephew liked. It was for this woman that he had dealt with all the admirers in the capital. Nowadays, women are terrified when they hear the name of King Jin.
Li Yun let them look at him, he was open and honest, not afraid of them looking at him at all.
"Yes, I am Li Yun. I don't know how you know me." Li Yun saw that the two men were upright and did not look like playboys, so he spoke to them politely.
"I am a Grand Secretary and the uncle of Prince Jin. This is Doctor Zheng from the Censorate, the uncle of Prince Jin." Grand Secretary Jiang introduced their identities to Li Yun.
"It's Lord Jiang and Lord Zheng. I'm honored to meet you!" Li Yun saluted Mr. Jiang and Doctor Zheng.
"No, can I call you Yun'er? You are the woman that King Jin loves the most. Just call me uncle and him uncle, just like King Jin does.
"What's more, the Emperor has already conferred upon you the title of Princess Jiahui, and an imperial decree will be issued soon. As a princess, you cannot marry a commoner woman. When you pay us respects, you only need to perform as an elder." "Grand Scholar Jiang said to Li Yun.
"Yun'er will remember my uncle's teachings!" Since she didn't have to bow, she was more than happy. She didn't know how much she hated bowing. She had to kneel down at every turn and had no dignity at all.
Regardless of whether there is any result with Shangguan Feiyun, it is still good to have more connections. This is what they asked for, not what I asked for.
"That's right." Mr. Jiang said with a smile.
"Yun'er, call me uncle and listen. You don't know that Prince Jin rarely calls me and always has a stern face." Doctor Zheng said to Li Yun.
"Hello! Hello uncle! Hello uncle! Hello uncle! Hello uncle! Hello uncle!" Isn't it said that important things should be said three times? In a gentle and humble tone, he called out "Hello uncle" three times, and "Hello uncle" three times, making the two old men laugh out loud, their eyes and faces full of happy smiles.
It’s still the girl’s screams that make people happy. That brat’s screams make him want to beat him up every time.
"Okay! Yun'er, this is a gift from your uncle to you." Scholar Jiang took off a jade pendant from his waist and gave it to Li Yun.
This jade pendant was given to him by the Queen Mother. Every legitimate daughter of the Jiang family has one, which represents the status of the Jiang family. Giving it to Li Yun also means that she wants the Jiang family to be her backer, so that no one dares to look down on her.
"Uncle! No, this is too valuable. Yun'er can't accept it." Li Yun looked at the quality of the jade pendant and knew it was a good piece of jade. She didn't dare to accept it.
"Yun'er, this isn't something valuable. It's the Jiang family's jade pendant. Possessing it means you're a member of the Jiang family, and the Jiang family has your back.
Although the emperor has named you a princess, your status is still a little low for the King of Jin. If you have the status of a Jiang family member, the Shangshu Mansion, and the Dingbei Marquis, you are more than enough to be worthy of the King of Jin, and the ministers in the court will not dare to object. "Grand Scholar Jiang said to Li Yun solemnly as an elder.
He liked the woman in front of him. Not only was she neither humble nor overbearing, neither arrogant nor impatient, but she and Prince Jin were simply a perfect match.
"Thank you, uncle!" Li Yun was very touched. How could she bear to refuse an elder who cared so much about her? She knew that he hoped she could marry Shangguan Feiyun, if not for anything else, just because he always cared about King Jin, and she would consider it.
"Yun'er, your uncle is right. I don't have any good gifts to give you. This is a jade buckle that represents the identity of the Zheng family. Different colors represent different statuses. This jade buckle has the greatest power besides the head of the Zheng family. With it, you have the identity of a Zheng family member, and the Zheng family will be your backing in the future." Doctor Zheng took out the jade buckle and handed it to Li Yun.
This jade button belonged to the Empress. When she became Empress, she sent it back to the Zheng family. He has been carrying it with him ever since, hoping his sister would take it back. He is the head of the Zheng family, and he has many illegitimate brothers and sisters. His mother only gave birth to him and the Empress, and there are only two jade buttons in the Zheng family.
"Thank you, uncle!" I have already accepted my uncle's jade pendant. If I don't accept my uncle's jade buckle, it seems unreasonable, and my uncle will be unhappy. But if I accept both jade buckles, it means I will marry Shangguan Feiyun, that big pig's hoof.
Forget it, for the sake of two lovely old men, I'll just pinch peach blossoms. In fact, sometimes pinching peach blossoms, torturing scumbag girls, and fighting white lotus are not bad, life will not be so boring.
After thinking it through, Li Yun accepted the gift with peace of mind.
Shangguan Feiyun in the Prince Jin's Mansion was trying desperately to find a way to coax Li Yun. He didn't know that his uncle and his uncle had already helped him coax Li Yun.
Li Yun chatted with Scholar Jiang and Doctor Zheng about some family matters, then went to find Gao Lou and Ban He.
"Master, it's great that you've come to the capital." Gao Lou said happily when he saw Li Yun.
"Well, now that you're here, are you used to living here? Have they given you any trouble?" Li Yun asked Gao Lou. She was worried that the people around the emperor would look down on them and give them trouble from time to time.
"Master, they are very polite to us, but we miss you. We don't feel comfortable here as in Qingshan Village. They are all high-ranking officials and dignitaries. We are worried that we might offend them at some point and cause trouble for you." Gao Lou expressed his concerns during this period.
"Gao Lou, although I bought you, I have never considered you my servants, so you don't have to feel inferior. Just do what you should do. As long as you don't commit any crime, I can keep you safe.
You know Commander Cheng, he won't embarrass you for no reason, so don't worry. And Scholar Jiang and Doctor Zheng outside are both good people, and they won't embarrass you either. As long as you obey the law and do your job, no one will dare to embarrass you." Li Yun also knew that servants had no status here. She could understand Gao Lou's worries, but she didn't want them to feel inferior. She wanted them to live with dignity.
Although this wish is a little difficult to achieve, she is willing to give it a try.
"Master, I understand. I will tell Banhe what you mean." Gao Lou felt much calmer after receiving his master's assurance. With his master coming to the capital, they now had someone to rely on and a backbone.
"By the way, how is the ice business? How many people are making ice? Can you handle it?" Li Yun asked Gao Lou the key question.
"Master, the ice cream business is so prosperous that we can't handle it. We wanted to hire some help, but we were afraid that we would hire traitors. It has always been just Banhe and I. Sometimes there are too many orders, so we make them overnight." Gao Lou told Li Yun about the booming ice cream business and said that he and Banhe were too busy to handle it.
