Chapter 174 Yuzhu and Me
Jiang Yuzhu's feet slipped and her whole body plunged into the water.
Hong Jin quickly jumped into the pool to rescue the person. 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. If she was unlucky, she might have died.
There is endless wealth and splendor in the capital, but the emperor can't stand seeing people doing well, so he sent her to the north!
Lack of morals, lack of great virtues!
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 affection in the human world!
"When do you leave?"
After wrung 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 and hesitated. Finally, Hong Jin stood up and said, "A notice has been posted in the downtown area of the city, saying that they are collecting donations for food, fodder, military supplies, etc. for the northern soldiers. I estimate that they will set off in a few days."
This time, in order to transport valuables, in addition to thousands of soldiers, there were also several escort teams from the capital city that followed.
"Madam, we stopped by the post station to rest. It will be 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 got 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 the result was..."
Jiang Yuzhu couldn't hold back her anger. The person who was going 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 did not choose 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 go to the North with you."
It had only been a few hours since Han Zhen received the news, and 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 and make meritorious deeds.
Jiang Yuzhu put down the book in her hand, stared at Han Zhen with a little surprise and said: "Have you thought about it?"
Han Zhen is a smart man. He must understand that staying in the capital is safer, but if he goes to the north, the future will be unpredictable.
Jiang Yuzhu did not ask any further questions, believing that Han Zhen did not make an impulsive decision.
"yes."
Han Zhen's expression relaxed. During this period, he trained several brothers to be his subordinates, including a smart man.
"I will go with you to the Northland. The current position is vacated. 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, Han Zhen wants 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 hesitated 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 prisoner in Dali Temple. After a few visits, the two fell in love with each other.
Seeing Han Zhen was silent, Jiang Yuzhu could not help but remind him: "You men are ambitious and have 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 Zhen 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 can marry into a better family.
Whenever Jiang Yuzhu heard such remarks, she couldn't help but expose them: "Han Zhen, do you have no 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 has three wives and four concubines and is extremely romantic, and there are many rules in the house? How will Su Wanqing cope with it?
"You should be confident that no one except you would care about her that much."
Jiang Yuzhu transformed herself into an emotional master and answered Han Zhen's questions in a very clear and logical way.
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 thought for a long time and finally figured it out. He clasped his fists and said, "Master, I have figured it out. It is time to inform Wan Qing. 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 limply. 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 to Xie Zhao and saluted, saying, "Master, congratulations on finally getting a status."
The news had already spread among the servants in the mansion. Liang An went to eavesdrop several times but failed. He couldn't bear it any longer and went to the toilet frequently, holding his stomach.
Xie Zhao paused and said, "We will leave for the Northland in the next few days. You should take good care of yourself."
"Hong Jin gave me this medicine. I feel much better after drinking it."
Liang An fiddled with the corner of his clothes uncomfortably and patted his head. "Madam has left the house. The old lady has sent a message for you to come back and go there."
Xie Zhao nodded slightly and went to see his mother, Shen.
Incense was burning in the room. Shen kept pinching her throat, leaving a bloody mark 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 struck 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. Your son will be back to 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 to comfort her, but unexpectedly Shen sighed and said, "Yuanhe, can you please ask the emperor not to let Yuzhu go?"
When Shen traveled 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 can she endure this kind of suffering?"
It would be great if they could stay in the capital. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could occasionally go to the Jiang residence 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 go hunting to eat some wild game. 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 lowered his eyes and said, "Mother, Yuzhu still has me."
