Chapter 1830 Gossip
He glanced at Cui and sighed, "Tell your wife to contact her parents more often..." After marrying her, he couldn't just do nothing, right?
Yang Heshu didn't say anything. He took a step back and bowed respectfully to his father. Then he turned to find his wife, helped her into the carriage, said goodbye to everyone, and left.
Lord Yang watched him walk away and sighed softly.
At this moment, Cui and Wang were still very polite. It was the people in the clan who were angry because all their properties in Jiangnan were confiscated by the emperor. This year, the Yang family had a very bleak year. Several families almost relied on the income from Jiangnan to maintain their daily expenses, but suddenly the source of income was cut off. This year was too bleak for them.
One or two people didn't dare to cause trouble to the clan leader, but when there were too many people, resentment within the clan boiled over. Even if he was the clan leader and was strong enough, he couldn't suppress so many people.
Especially since there are people fanning the flames, it would be better for Yang Heshu to take his wife and children with him. If they stay in the capital, they won't encounter any problems. Otherwise, they will have to endure a lot of anger.
After seeing Yang Heshu off, Manbao and the other two got into the carriage and prepared to go home. It was only the 16th day of the first lunar month and it was still cold. It was also early, so they stayed in the carriage as soon as they went out and were reluctant to ride horses.
Seeing them get in the car and leave, Tang He couldn't help but chase after them on horseback and knocked on their car window. Seeing Bai Erlang push open the window and stick his head out, he glanced behind him and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's a rare day off, why don't you go out to the street to have a meal together?"
Bai Erlang said, "The sun has only been out for a short time. We have already had breakfast."
Having said that, when they got to the street, Bai Shan and the other two still sat together with Lord and Mrs. Tang. The five of them found a wonton stall and sat down, each holding a bowl of wontons to eat.
Daji and other guards also sat at the table next door and ordered a large bowl of wontons.
Tang He drank a lot of wonton soup and let out a long sigh, "It's so comfortable to eat wontons in cold weather."
Manbao nodded in agreement.
Tang He asked her, "There will be a grand court meeting tomorrow after the holiday. You need to go to the palace early, right?"
Manbao nodded sadly.
Tang He said, "Then you wait for me at the intersection tomorrow and we'll go together?"
Manbao glanced at Tang He, then at Mrs. Tang who was drinking soup, and shook his head, "Brother Tang, just say whatever you want to say."
Tang He sighed and said, "Okay, then I'll be frank. I heard some gossip, I don't know if it's true or not, but I heard that Commander Sun is going to study at the Imperial College?"
Manbao asked curiously, "What does it have to do with you whether he enters the Imperial College or not?"
Tang He pointed at his nose and asked, "Who am I?"
Manbao said without hesitation: "Good man."
Mrs. Tang almost spit out the soup.
Tang He: "...Thank you for the compliment."
Bai Shan smiled and said, "Brother Tang is the magistrate of Chang'an County."
Tang He felt better now. He said, "Too many royal relatives and dignitaries came to Beijing to pay New Year's greetings this year. I'm just unlucky. Most of them live in Chang'an County."
Only a very small number of people live in the area under the jurisdiction of Wannian County.
"Do you know how many times I was called to the yamen during the nine days of the New Year?" The yamen was sealed, and as a county magistrate he should have had a holiday, but he still had to go to the yamen from time to time, or go out to mediate in his official uniform.
"Did you see my eye bags during the Lantern Festival last night? Are they darker and bigger?" Tang He pointed at his eye bags and asked Zhou Man.
Manbao took a look and said, "Brother Tang, I wanted to say this when I saw you this morning. I saw you last night when we were at the Lantern Festival. How come you seem to have aged three years in just half an evening?"
Madam Tang glanced at Master Tang and said, "Because he didn't sleep all night."
Tang He sighed sadly, "Being the magistrate of Chang'an County is much more difficult than being the magistrate of Huayang County. Last night I was busy dealing with a fight over drinking. Oh, and the fourth son of the Cui family and the youngest son of the Zou family are still sobering up in the county government office."
He said, "Now that the Lantern Festival is over, those who should leave should also leave. As for those who don't want to leave, I have to make a count to see how many people are staying, where they live on weekdays, and what they plan to do in the capital. Once I find out everything, I can do my work later."
Not to mention Manbao and Bai Erlang, even Bai Shan was shocked, and then looked at County Magistrate Tang with sympathy, "It's really hard work."
Lord Tang nodded in agreement.
"So, Jun Ma Sun is staying in the capital?" Tang He said, "You live in the palace, so you must be more informed than me."
The main reason is that she is the imperial physician and can access news from the palace more easily.
Manbao thought about it carefully and found that she really knew it.
She cleared her throat, then looked around. Seeing guards and maids from both families on either side, she leaned forward slightly and said in a low voice, "I heard that the Empress Dowager and His Majesty asked for a favor to allow Sun Junma to study at the Imperial Academy..."
Not only Lord Tang leaned forward to listen, but even Madam Tang and Bai Shan and Bai Erlang leaned forward to listen.
Bai Shan asked, "Why didn't you tell us?"
Manbao said nonchalantly, "I only heard someone mention it when I went to see the Queen Mother for a checkup. It has nothing to do with us, so why should I tell her?"
Bai Shan thought so too. He lowered his head and drank a mouthful of soup before remembering something. He looked up and said, "It is still somewhat related. I don't know what kind of person Sun Junma is, but Princess Yunfeng has a bad temper. If she stays in the capital, we have to be careful."
Manbao waved his hand and said, "She won't have time to bother us."
She said, "She had a miscarriage and needs to stay in confinement for two months. She also needs to recuperate. She's very busy."
Mrs. Tang was shocked. "How could she have a miscarriage?"
Lord Tang was also surprised. In an instant, he thought of all kinds of struggles in the palace, but he didn't think it was unlikely. The palace was the queen's territory, and the queen had always managed the harem in an orderly manner. What's more, there was the empress dowager. Who would be so desperate as to harm Princess Yunfeng?
Manbao couldn't tell Princess Yunfeng about her illness, as it was her privacy after all. She guessed that Princess Yunfeng herself might not even know about her illness.
So she could only vaguely say, "I was exhausted from the long journey, and my pregnancy wasn't looking good to begin with. I miscarried on the tenth day."
At that time, it was Imperial Physician Liu who led his daughter Doctor Liu to deal with the case, and later even Dean Xiao went there.
Dean Xiao and Imperial Physician Liu both intentionally separated Zhou Man and Princess Yunfeng, so they did not recommend Zhou Man to Princess Yunfeng, and did not even mention the apprenticeship of Medical Girl Liu.
At the same time, he also did not discuss Princess Yunfeng's illness in front of Zhou Man, so as to avoid her getting too involved.
But Doctor Liu is her apprentice.
Manbao was still very curious about Princess Yunfeng, so she couldn't hold back for half a day before secretly calling her apprentice to give her private guidance. Then she knew everything, even that Princess Yunfeng was in a bad mood and had a big fight with Junma Sun.
