Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing stood up without even looking at He Youchan who was speaking out loudly, and said:
"Let's go."
When Si Jinxing left the room, Song Xiner, Gu Keying and Zhao Dani followed.
Lu Zhu lifted her foot, then put it down again, glanced at Si Junhong and his daughter who were still in a daze, and said:
"Aunt, cousin, our young lady has gone to the front hall, why aren't you leaving quickly?
When you meet the eunuch next to the emperor later, you must remember to mention your plan just now.
It also saves a lot of trouble. The young lady has to go and ask the prince to ask him to ask the emperor first. It is so troublesome to go around in circles.
Now that the eunuch is here, you can mention it and it will reach the emperor in less than half a day. It's very convenient!"
Si Junhong was just a woman, a member of the family of a small Tongzhi in Hengzhou City.
Although she had stayed in the general's mansion several times, she had never seen any nobles from the palace.
What she just mentioned was just to force or trick Si Jinxing into agreeing.
How could she dare to speak directly to the eunuch beside the emperor about this matter?
When Si Junhong thought about this, he said awkwardly:
"Of course, we have to wait until the marriage between the two countries is finalized before we discuss this matter. There's no rush, no rush."
He Youchan, who was standing aside, raised her eyes slightly after hearing Lu Zhu's words.
Her mind moved slightly, and she said:
“No matter what, let’s go ahead and accompany Second Sister to meet the distinguished guests from the palace.
My second sister is young and has moved out of the Si Mansion. There is no elder to guide her in this courtyard, so mother must help her more."
When Si Junhong heard this, he immediately felt confident. Longyin has always ruled the world with filial piety!
As an elder, if Si Jinxing doesn't listen to what she says and it gets to the ears of the nobles in the palace, she will be in big trouble!
Thinking of this, she didn't delay any longer, pulled He Youchan with her, and strode after Si Jinxing and the others.
Zi Su followed behind and said to Lu Zhu:
"I just don't know whether the marriage they're talking about is true or not. It really makes me worried!"
When Lu Zhu heard this, he waved his hand and said loudly:
"Sister Zisu, you are so confused! Have you forgotten who the Ninth Prince is?"
Who is the Ninth Prince?
Zi Su immediately thought: Rumor has it that the Ninth Prince is... the most willful and reckless person in the world!
But people change, don't they?
Who knows, will he continue to put his young lady first and not change his original intention?
When Si Jinxing and others arrived at the front yard, they saw Eunuch Zhang standing with his hands behind his back, looking at the scenery in the yard, and chatting with the housekeeper Zhang Bo from time to time.
She stepped forward with a smile and said, "Eunuch Zhang, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting again.
It's cold outside, why don't you go into the living room?"
Eunuch Zhang heard the sound and looked in the direction it came from. He saw the clever little girl walking towards him quickly.
He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Today, it came faster than usual!
I guess the courtyard you live in now is not as far away from the front yard as it was in the Si Mansion?"
Si Jinxing pursed her lips and smiled, then led Eunuch Zhang inside and said:
"Has Eunuch Zhang's leg pain recurred these days?"
When Eunuch Zhang, who had just sat down in the chair, heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said:
"If the county lady hadn't mentioned it, it would have been difficult for us to speak to you.
In previous years, when the weather got cold, my right leg would often hurt.
These days, we have been following the instructions of the county lady and applying the plaster for two days if we feel any pain.
After doing this a few times, I have hardly felt any pain in the past month!
Even if it hurts, it's mild.
I haven't felt this comfortable for many years!
I just don't know if the county lady still has that plaster?"
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing said, "It's good for you to use. This ointment is enough for you!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Song Xiner and said:
"Take this stack of plasters with you when you leave. When you're done, just send a young eunuch out to get them from me."
Eunuch Zhang turned his head and looked at the tray in the girl's hand, which was piled with dozens of plasters.
Satisfiedly said:
"We have been with the Emperor in the palace, and there is nothing we haven't seen or used.
But I have never seen medicine as effective as the county lady's, and we are not pretending to refuse it, mainly because we can't bear to refuse it!
In this case, our family would like to thank the county lady!"
After he finished speaking, he stood up, cleared his throat, and said:
"We have come here today to convey the Emperor's oral instructions. County Lady, shall we begin?"
Si Jinxing replied, "Okay."
After she finished speaking, she knelt straight on the ground, and everyone in the hall followed suit.
It was the first time for Si Junhong and He Youchan to see a eunuch coming out of the palace, and they despised Si Jinxing very much.
The legitimate daughter of a general, personally appointed as a county lady by the emperor, and the future principal wife of Prince Mo Ying, was actually so fawning and flattering a rootless eunuch?
It's really a debasement of one's status, a piece of shit that's not presentable!
No matter how much they despised eunuchs, how could they dare to stand and listen to the emperor's instructions? They had no choice but to kneel down.
Eunuch Zhang glanced at everyone in the hall, then raised his shrill voice and said:
"Si Jinxing, the legitimate daughter of the Si family, is the Princess of Anping County of our dynasty. She is kind and virtuous, and possesses extraordinary skills. This time she went north to provide disaster relief and save countless people. I am deeply pleased!
Specially granted county lady:
A mansion in the capital and five thousand taels of silver in the treasury.
Five pieces of Yuhua brocade and Xiangyunsha each!
Three pairs of mutton-fat white jade bracelets and three pairs of red gold silk bracelets!
Ten gold and silver hairpins of various styles!
