Chapter 381: Mother's Family
Feng Aoqing told Lin Ziyan that her eyes could be cured, but because she was completely blind, the treatment would take some time, and she might have to suffer here for a while.
She and Chonglou have already developed a treatment plan.
Lou Xingji sent someone to Jingtong City to deliver a letter to Lord Lin, fearing that Lord Lin would still be worried if he only delivered the letter.
A few days later, Feng Aoqing also received information about Lin Ziyan.
Many years ago, Lin's father was killed for supporting Emperor Wu of Yuan and opposing the three traitors, leaving behind two siblings, Lin Ziyu and Lin Ziyan.
Emperor Yuanwu felt guilty, so he protected the two of them well after the success. Lin Ziyu was not only loyal but also capable, so he continued to serve as an official in Yuanwu and was a supporter of Emperor Yuanwu.
Three years ago, Lin Ziyan reached the age to get married, and Emperor Yuanwu wanted to marry her to Zhu Mingbo, whom he favored.
But for some reason, Lin Ziyan suffered from eye disease since then. Lin Ziyu was a sincere man. He decisively rejected the marriage proposal on the grounds that he could not drag down Zhu Mingbo.
"There must be someone who doesn't want the Lin and Zhu families to marry." An Jinge hit the nail on the head.
The Lin family has many officials and was originally a family of great scholars. Although the Zhu family is not from Wudu, Zhu Mingbo is not only a talented family, but his family is also the richest in Junchi City, and he is also a relative of the late empress dowager.
Everyone agreed with this view.
Feng Aoqing said nothing.
"No?" An Jinge still understood Feng Aoqing, and knew there was something wrong as soon as she saw her expression.
"I don't know. These palace fights are the most harmful. Forming cliques for personal gain and officials protecting each other. If Emperor Yuanwu doesn't strictly control and investigate, the prosperity of these years will probably be destroyed. In this case, we may have to postpone our cooperation plan so that Zhao Jing will not be implicated." Feng Aoqing said.
"Intervene! We must intervene!" Chonglou grabbed her wrist and exerted force. "Our emperor hates cliques and selfishness the most. If our general knows about this, it's equivalent to the emperor knowing about it. He will definitely intervene! Don't be impulsive."
Feng Aoqing nodded: "I hope so."
After Chonglou left, Feng Aoqing asked An Jinge to write a letter to Mo Beiyuan, and she also wrote a letter to An Lei, saying that she needed to get a deeper understanding of Yuanwu.
Emperor Yuanwu was too mysterious, which made her feel uneasy.
Feng Aoqing looked at Siyan, and Siyan nodded. She had followed Feng Aoqing for so long that they had such a tacit understanding that there was no need for further words.
Su Hongyu from Hantian Valley sent a few people to help Feng Aoqing, and they will arrive today.
The ghost thorns at the town gate began to grow wildly and became the best defense.
When she went to pick someone up, she saw a team coming.
The team was led by Yu Tiannan and Guan Dashan, who were exiled with her and followed her to build Hantian Valley.
"What? My Hantian Valley doesn't want it anymore? All the people in charge are here?" Feng Aoqing joked.
"Manager Su, Manager An, and Manager Yue are here! It's okay! We haven't seen the master for so long, they must have come to see us, and we are here to help!" Yu Tiannan felt stronger after not seeing him for so long.
Guan Dashan also said, "When Shopkeeper Su heard about this serious matter, he regretted not being able to come. There are too many things going on in the northern border. Prince Yonglin wanted to give him an official position, and let him manage all the businesses in the northern regions. However, he refused. He said that he should do the work, but not be an official. He is just your man, not the Zhaojing government."
Feng Aoqing knew that Su Hongyu was worried. Among these people, some were there to do business and some were there to protect her. He was afraid that she would be in danger because of her involvement in these matters. The last assassination attempt had already made them nervous.
"Of course I hope you'll come, but what about your wives?"
"I brought it! I'll take care of you by the way!" The two answered at the same time, pointing behind them.
Feng Aoqing looked over and saw that the female relatives of the two men had really followed them. Su Hongyu calculated that it would not be a short time, and they all agreed, so they followed them.
The tears just flowed down uncontrollably.
These people, no matter when, no matter what the situation, no matter what she looks like, respect her, love her, and put her first.
Fortunately, the Ghost Fan Tower is big enough, otherwise we wouldn’t know where to put all these people.
Chonglou didn't know that once Yu Tiannan and Guan Dashan came, they would know where to put the people, as they were best at building houses.
They replanned the town and prepared to build it slowly.
If the plan is finalized, this will also be a passage to the west and will become an important town in the future.
In the evening, Yu Tiannan's wife Ning Xiaohe and Guan Dashan's wife Du Lanhua cooked Hantian Valley's food for Feng Aoqing, which made her very happy.
Lin Ziyan was also invited to dinner. She was now wearing a specially made cloth eye mask filled with medicinal herbs, covering most of her face.
Feng Aoqing told her not to take it off by herself.
Hearing the noise in the house, she could feel that the voices of strangers were all in the house, and she felt a little scared.
Feng Aoqing told her that everyone in the room was from her mother's family.
Lin Ziyan knew her identity! As soon as she heard her family, she stood up and saluted.
Everyone laughed heartily. Feng Aoqing helped her up and said, "You don't hold any official position. We are just family. You don't have to be restrained."
"Be polite to Miss Lin and don't scare her." Feng Aoqing instructed again.
"Yes." Everyone answered in unison, which scared Lin Ziyan again.
Most of the dishes were meat. Lin Ziyan always ate light food, so she didn't move much. She relied on Cai'er to put the food into her bowl and she ate whatever she picked.
After finishing the meal, he said goodbye in a hurry and went to rest.
Arriving at her own yard, Lin Ziyan asked Cai'er: "Who are these people? They don't sound like..."
Lin Ziyan hesitated to speak. Feng Aoqing was the former princess and her family was also a prominent family, but it didn't sound like that at the dinner table.
"Miss, they are not your family at all! They are just extremely vulgar people. It's a good thing you can't see them. If you saw how they eat, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to eat." Cai'er looked at her with disdain.
"This...then why does Miss Feng call them her family?" Lin Ziyan was a little confused.
"I heard them calling each other 'Master'," Cai'er added, "and 'Madam' as well. It's a mess."
"Madam?" Lin Ziyan was even more confused.
"This woman was married and divorced, you probably don't know that! So it's normal to call her Madam. Even so, she still thinks about us... Master! So what if she's beautiful? She's still..."
"Cai'er! Stop talking nonsense!" Lin Ziyan shouted.
Cai'er knew that she had said that the most taboo for wealthy people was gossip, so she quickly shut up.
"I'm still waiting for someone to heal my eyes. How can I talk about her behind her back? Remember not to say that again in the future. Just wait until she's better and leave quickly." Lin Ziyan said this in a heavier tone than usual.
"Yes, Miss, I understand." Cai'er responded quickly.
Lin Ziyan really wanted to have her eyes healed immediately so that she could see this Feng Huajun.
"Is she beautiful? How does she compare to the girls from the gentry families in Beijing that you have met?" she suddenly asked.
I am beautiful, and everyone praises me from childhood to adulthood.
"She is beautiful, more beautiful than those girls from scholar families, but certainly not as beautiful as you." Cai'er answered confidently.
