Jiang Yuzhu slipped and her whole body plunged into the water.
Hong Jin quickly jumped into the pool to rescue him. Just as she jumped in, Jiang Yuzhu had already poked her head out, waved her hands randomly, and whispered, "I know, you can go down."
When the beauty came out of the bath, Jiang Yuzhu was not as agile as usual and was half a beat slower than usual.
In her heart, she was complaining madly.
Is it necessary for Xie Zhao to bring his family with him when he goes to the north?
With the previous experience of accompanying Xie Zhao on a business trip, if she had not been smart, she would have been tricked into eating human flesh, and if she was unlucky, she might have died.
There is endless wealth and splendor in the capital, but the emperor can't stand seeing others doing well, so he sends her to the north!
It’s so immoral, so lacking in great virtue!
The Jiang family has already sacrificed Jiang Huaiqing, and the whole family is worried. If she accompanies Xie Zhao to leave Beijing now, won’t her parents be worried to death?
The emperor is not loved by his own father and mother, so he cannot understand the mutual care and bond of family in the world!
"When do we leave?"
After wringing out her hair, Jiang Yuzhu walked to the study and sat at the desk to write and draw.
Hong Jin looked at Hong Li, who then looked at Hong Xiu. Several maids huddled together, hesitating. Finally, Hong Jin stepped forward and said, "A notice has been posted in the city's downtown area, soliciting donations for food, fodder, and military supplies for the northern soldiers. I estimate they will set off within a few days."
This time, in order to transport valuables, in addition to thousands of soldiers, several escort teams from the capital also followed.
"Madam, we stopped by the post station to rest. It's more comfortable than the second young master's group."
Hongli didn't know how to persuade her, so he could only compare himself to Jiang Huaiqing, hoping that his wife would be more balanced.
"Wei Jing contracted a heart disease, Xuan Yao had her fingers cut off, and Lin Moyue, who plotted to frame me, hanged himself. I finally saw the light and could live a peaceful life, but then..."
Jiang Yuzhu couldn't hold back her anger. The person who was supposed to go was Xie Zhao, so why was she offered a buy-one-get-one-free deal?
"I heard from Liang An that the news from the palace was that the Emperor originally chose someone other than me..."
Jiang Fulu was chosen, and Xie Zhao volunteered to take his place. The emperor was worried and suddenly remembered Jiang Yuzhu's good fortune, so he allowed the couple to set off together.
Jiang Yuzhu suppressed the irritability between her eyebrows, touched her chin and asked, "Really?"
If that was the case, she should really thank Xie Zhao for his help.
As the master and servant were talking, Han Zhen asked for a meeting and confirmed the news that Hong Jin had obtained.
"Master, I have made up my mind and am willing to follow you to the Northland."
Han Zhen had only received the news for a few hours when he had already thought it over carefully. Instead of staying in the Wucheng Bingmasi and slowly being promoted, it would be better to go to the north to make meritorious deeds.
Jiang Yuzhu put down the booklet in her hand, stared at Han Zhen with a hint of surprise and said, "Have you thought it through?"
Han is a smart man. He must know that staying in the capital is safe, but if he goes to the north, the future will be unpredictable.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't ask too many questions, believing that Han Zhen didn't make an impulsive decision.
"yes."
Han Zhen's expression relaxed. During this period, he had trained several brothers to serve as his subordinates, including a smart man.
"I will go with you to the Northland. The current position is vacant. You only need to spend some silver to bribe it, and then you can nominate your brothers to take it."
The position still belongs to him, and Han Zhen has to go to the north to do more important things.
Not only for the Han family, but also for the master Jiang Yuzhu.
It would be nice to live a stable life in Wucheng Bingmasi, but due to the constraints of the surrounding rules and regulations, there is little Han can do.
Jiang Yuzhu pondered for a moment and asked, "Does Wanqing know your decision?"
When the Su family was in trouble, Han Zhen took Su Wanqing to visit the prison in Dali Temple. After a few visits, the two fell in love with each other.
Seeing Han Zhen's silence, Jiang Yuzhu couldn't help but remind him, "You men are right to have ambitions and aspirations to build achievements, but women only seek stability. If you give up love for achievements, you will regret it one day."
Now that you have made a decision, at least let me know.
Whether to wait or not is decided by Su Wanqing.
Han Zhen lowered his head and said awkwardly, "I don't know how long the war in the north will last. If..."
Prefect Su turned a disaster into a blessing and was promoted to become a Beijing official, while Han Zhenming was unknown. Although he came from a noble family, his family was already at the end of its rope by the time of his father's generation.
If the Han family were to marry into the Su family, they would be marrying above their station.
Han Zhen likes Su Wanqing, but he also hopes that she will marry into a better family.
Whenever Jiang Yuzhu heard such remarks, she couldn't help but refute them: "Han Zhen, do you lack confidence in yourself or in Wanqing?"
Suppose Han Zhen goes far away to the north, and Su Wanqing gets married. What if she marries a scumbag, a man who is extremely romantic with three wives and four concubines, and has many rules in his house? How will Su Wanqing cope with it then?
"You should be confident. No one except you would care about her that much."
Jiang Yuzhu transformed into an emotional master and answered Han Zhen's questions in a clear and logical manner.
No matter what, Su Wanqing has the right to know, and she can choose to wait or not.
When it comes to matters between two people, it’s not easy for one person to make the decision alone; it’s a two-way choice.
Han Zhen pondered for a long time and finally figured it out. He clasped his fists and said, "Master, I've figured it out. It's time to inform Wanqing. What you said is all true and insightful. Have you figured it out from Master Xie?"
"roll!"
Jiang Yuzhu put down the teacup and let her hands hang down weakly. She meant to help, but Han Zhen ended up gossiping about her, his master!
After sending Han Zhen away, Jiang Yuzhu ordered a carriage to be prepared and set out. Before leaving Beijing, she wanted to go to the most famous restaurant in the capital and have a good meal.
At noon, Xie Zhao returned home from the palace.
Liang An's lower eyelids were dark blue, and he almost floated up to Xie Zhao and saluted, saying, "Master, congratulations on finally getting a legitimate status."
The news had spread among the servants in the mansion. Liang An went to eavesdrop several times but failed. He couldn't bear it anymore and went to the toilet frequently, holding his stomach.
Xie Zhao paused and said, "We'll be leaving for the Northland in the next few days. Take care of yourself."
"Hongjin gave me some medicine. I feel much better after drinking it."
Liang An fidgeted with the corner of his clothes uncomfortably and patted his head. "My wife has left the house. The old lady sent a message for you to come back and visit."
Xie Zhao nodded slightly and went to see his mother, Shen.
Incense was burning in the room. Shen kept pinching her throat, and there were blood marks under her neck.
Last night at Jiang's house, Shen and Chen were drinking and chatting happily, and they were so happy. But when they returned to Xie's house, they were hit by a bolt from the blue.
In just one hour, Shen's gums and throat were swollen, and she was very irritated.
Xie Zhao poured a cup of heat-clearing tea for his mother, Shen, and said, "Don't worry, mother. I will be back in Beijing soon."
I spent the New Year away from home last year, and it seems I won’t be able to make it back this year.
Xie Zhao was about to continue comforting her when Shen sighed and said, "Yuanhe, could you please ask the Emperor not to let Yuzhu go?"
When Shen came from Jiangnan to the capital, even though the carriage was spacious, it was not very comfortable to walk on the official road.
"Yuzhu is a woman, how could she endure this kind of suffering?"
It would be so nice to stay in the capital. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could occasionally go to the Jiang Mansion for a meal, stay in the villa for a while, and go shopping.
In a few days, the maple leaves around the capital will turn bright red. You can enjoy the maple leaves and eat some wild game in the autumn hunt. If you go to the north, there will be nothing there.
The arrangement was good, but this leisurely day excluded him. Xie Zhao felt inexplicably unhappy and said with lowered eyes, "Mother, Yuzhu still has me."
