Chapter 131 Viscount
Xia Zixuan took the letter handed to him by Jiang Ce and smiled after reading it.
"This is a good thing. You can go back and bring your aunt over. Then the family will be truly reunited." Jiang Ce's mother was not favored in the mansion.
Now that he has received the emperor's reward, it would be perfect for him to bring his mother back to the imperial city.
Perhaps reminded by Xia Zixuan's words, Jiang Ce calmed down.
"Yes, it's a good opportunity." Because the eldest princess told him that he was awarded the title of viscount, which was not a high title, but for a person of other surnames and without any merit, getting the title of viscount was a great achievement.
In addition, he did not attend court or handle government affairs, so this title was just a title.
Fortunately, he married a princess, otherwise, he would be of the same rank as a fifth-rank official, and if he were a meritorious official, he would not have to give him face.
The imperial edict for his viscountship had not yet been issued, and the matter was suppressed by the eldest princess.
It was originally an imperial decree for him to handle family affairs.
Now, if you want him to go back, then he will go back.
Who knows who will regret it then?
Originally, he thought that he would not go back and would ask them to come over after the wedding.
Unexpectedly, they were more anxious than himself.
I think it was his stepmother's idea. It was just right that he could take his mother over. Then the Jiang Mansion would have nothing to do with him anymore.
He can be considered a true illegitimate son who was separated from the family.
That’s right, just as Jiang Ce thought, when Jiang family’s stepmother learned that Jiang Ce was going to marry the princess, she went completely crazy.
Why didn't such a good thing happen to her son?
Because of this, she became more and more displeased with her daughter-in-law.
The Jiang family’s troubles are not important.
After Jiang Ce was ready, he took the messenger back to South City.
He knew that if he went back alone, he might never come back.
With the messenger who delivered the imperial edict and the guards given to him by His Majesty, he could be said to be the king of Nancheng.
After Jiang Ce left the imperial city, Shan Ning came to An Xiaoxiao every day to tell her about her uneasiness.
An Xiaoxiao didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only take her to Prince Li's mansion.
But An Xiaoxiao didn't know that her arrival this time changed her life.
"Miss An, Princess Shanning, please follow me. The princess is waiting for you in the backyard." Xia Xue personally went to the door of the mansion to greet the two.
Before they came, they sent someone to report the news.
"Thank you, Xia Xue." They have been together for a long time and are very familiar with the people around them.
An Xiaoxiao looked at Xia Xue, whose eyes were becoming increasingly brighter, and thanked her.
"Miss An, you are too polite. This is what I should do." Xia Xue replied with a smile.
Soon Xia Xue brought the two of them into the backyard.
It's not that Xia Yutong has become more assertive since becoming a princess, but the day is getting hotter and hotter, and she's coming up with new tricks every day.
For example, now she is experimenting with saltpeter. Summer is coming, and she has to research these things.
You know, the Imperial City is different from the Southern City. The summer here is really hot.
When Xia Xue brought them over, she saw Xia Yutong squatting on the ground, staring at a basin in front of her.
There was white smoke coming out of it, and no one knew what it was. "What are you doing?" the two of them walked over and asked.
Xia Yutong raised her head and glanced at them. "They're working on something."
After saying that, she pulled the two of them down and squatted down.
No regard for status at all.
When Wen Li came back, he found that the mansion was very different.
Normally, as soon as he came back, someone would immediately run to the backyard, but now, there was no one in the front yard.
He immediately became confused, "Dayi, go find the steward and find out how the mansion is managed." Ouyang Hao was here today, and he couldn't bring himself to say it.
Well, men are all so concerned about their reputation.
Ouyang Hao is Wen Li's cousin who is three generations older than him, and the two of them can be said to have known each other through fighting.
Ouyang Hao's family situation is somewhat special. His father is the illegitimate son of a prince. After the family was divided, he did not receive any title or reward and could only be a member of the Ouyang clan.
After losing the relationship with the Prince's Mansion, Ouyang Hao's father could only achieve this.
Fortunately, Ouyang Hao's mother was capable and eventually built a career with her dowry.
But the good times didn't last long.
In the end, the couple died before Ouyang Hao grew up, leaving behind a teenage boy.
Ouyang Hao was the kind of person who had a simple mind but strong limbs. Those who wanted to take advantage of him were beaten out by him with his fists.
Even his grandfather couldn't do anything to him.
Now, he is taking care of the family business on his own, and his life is no worse than Wen Li's before.
Maybe she's even more cool than him.
The two had a fight once when they were drinking, and because of that, they became good friends in private.
However, Ouyang Hao's reputation was not good, so not many people suspected him.
In this way, the relationship between the two continued.
Ouyang Hao came here today because he plans to join the army.
But Wen Li didn't let him go and took him back home.
I plan to comfort him again.
At your age, it’s time to get married, or at least start a family before joining the army.
Ouyang Hao is a man without any ideas, he just does whatever he wants.
So he followed Wen Liao to Li Wangfu.
This is his second time here.
Da Yi quickly found the manager, but when he found him, he was shocked.
"What's going on?" He immediately pulled the person next to him and asked.
Because he saw a lot of white smoke floating in the backyard, with a hint of coolness.
The man looked back and saw that it was Da Yi, and immediately bent down.
"Replying to Mr. Da Yi, it's the princess. She is working on some new invention in there." The man answered honestly.
Dayi didn't go forward either, but it was useless for him to go in given the trouble in that yard.
He could only report to his master.
Wen Li was shocked when he heard the news, "A yard full of white smoke?" He didn't understand.
"Come on, follow me to the backyard." He was very worried and got up and ran to the backyard.
But when I saw it with my own eyes, I was even more shocked than when I heard the news.
He flew inside.
Ouyang Hao, who was following behind him, thought something had happened and immediately followed.
Until they arrived at the center of the courtyard.
Xia Yutong, An Xiaoxiao and Shan Ning were having a lot of fun.
After the saltpeter was successfully verified, the two of them immediately asked someone to prepare basins and started to use it as if they had found a new toy.
Until the saltpeter he put in turned the water into ice.
That's why there was so much white smoke in the backyard.
This is cold air, and it is also the gas released by saltpeter.
"What are you doing?" Wen looked for his beloved as soon as he landed.
He soon spotted her and immediately came to her side, speaking loudly to An Xiaoxiao and Shan Ning who were playing on the side.
But it scared the two of them.
After seeing the visitor, Shan Ning immediately ran towards Wen Li happily, "Cousin, cousin, look, this is the ice I made."
After saying that, she pulled Wen Li to the ice bucket and pointed at the ice inside.
Wen Li was shocked.
I touched it with my hand immediately and it was indeed ice.
But how can there be ice in this weather?
