Shu Chengfeng distributed all the grain he had brought.
They meticulously kept accounts, because even if the two counties could save themselves, there were still many people in the surrounding villages and communities who had been displaced.
Besides, although he didn't bring much, he wasn't going to take it back anyway.
Zhou Chongguang finally received the news from the capital.
Not only those in the palace, but also those in the Crown Prince's residence.
With the Crown Prince's residence causing such a stir, it's impossible to keep it a secret from everyone.
So he summoned all his advisors to his residence that very night to discuss the matter.
Shu Chengfeng has done what he needed to do, and His Majesty has even given the order that since the disaster is not serious, he can set off.
As for whether to submit a memorial impeaching Zhou Chongguang, that was something to consider after returning home.
Shu Chengfeng learned of what had happened in the manor, and the Empress's intervention temporarily quelled the infighting among the wives and concubines. However, Han Chenghui's death was unexpected.
The Crown Prince believed that this was not the Empress's doing.
The Empress was not in a position to relay messages at this time; otherwise, even if she didn't say anything, it would still be interpreted as something happening in the Emperor's eyes and ears.
In the past few days, the Crown Prince has been busy with another matter, which is to visit the Murong family.
The main ancestral home of the Murong clan is in Qintang City in Jiangnan. Qintang City is the ideal place for scholars all over the world.
Almost every young student wanted to study at Qinshan Academy in Qintang City. The hope was that this would give them a good background and allow them to take the imperial examinations.
Since its establishment, Qinshan Academy has been under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, but it remains a place of pilgrimage for scholars.
Many officials in the court had studied at Qinshan Academy when they were young.
Qinshan Academy, Bailu Academy, and Weishui Academy are the three most famous academies in Dayan.
The founder of Qinshan Academy was an ancestor of the Murong family.
Even today, members of the Murong family still hold positions at the academy. Even though Qinshan Academy has been brought under the control of the imperial court, they remain the recognized founders.
Therefore, the status of the Murong family in Qintang City is self-evident.
In the eyes of scholars throughout Jiangnan, the Murong family of Qintang City was a very famous and prestigious family.
To get from Laiyang Prefecture to Qintang City, one also needs to cross the Yuan River.
If the trip to Chengzhou at the beginning of the year was Yan Nangui's home turf, then this trip to Jiangnan should be the Murong clan's home turf.
Therefore, since the Empress has taken charge of matters within the household, Shu Chengfeng will temporarily refrain from interfering.
At this moment, he was in Yan Nangui's place: "I'm leaving the day after tomorrow, do you need to pack anything?"
"Tsk, Your Highness is going to visit the Murong Clan, why did you bring me along?"
"Now that we've been to Qintang City, it's time to return to the capital. Are you going to leave by yourself then?" Shu Chengfeng said with a smile.
Yan Nangui raised an eyebrow and smiled: "Is that all? Wasn't I just here to be a weight?"
Shu Chengfeng shook his head and laughed: "You have to make yourself sound so..."
"Isn't it better to be clear? Although I am very clear about myself, it doesn't stop me from spending time with Your Highness. Isn't it because I admire Your Highness?" Yan Nangui rolled her eyes at him.
Shu Chengfeng stopped talking and just smiled.
Yan Nangui then got up and sat on his lap: "Your Highness treats me like a servant, so let me touch Your Highness's hair too."
As he spoke, he swiftly removed Shu Chengfeng's hair ornament.
Before Shu Chengfeng could stop her, her long hair had already come undone.
"What's wrong with you?" Shu Chengfeng was extremely uncomfortable with having his hair down like that in broad daylight.
The main thing is that he has been served by women since he was a teenager, and it has been all these years now.
Even though he always puts on an image of being a loving and easy-going woman, there are still women who act coquettishly towards him.
But there has never been one who would sit in your lap without permission, and who would even dare to touch you inappropriately.
I don't know what started it, but Yan Shi acted so naturally.
Yan Nangui successfully touched the long hair and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
This hair is so interesting! It's so smooth and beautiful, with a natural black color that shines with a golden luster.
The main reason is that Shu Chengfeng's hair quality is exceptionally good.
It's incredibly smooth, neither too rough nor too fine, and feels wonderful to the touch.
She waved for someone to bring a comb, and then started combing his hair while playing with it.
She feels bad if a few strands fall out when she combs her hair.
Shu Chengfeng simply let her do as she pleased, and leaned back in the soft chair to relax.
Before I knew it, I had fallen asleep.
Yunji, watching from the doorway, was speechless.
Unbelievable! His Highness just lets people play with his hair like that?
This Yan Liangyuan is really interesting.
It was already the end of June when we set off for Qintang City.
Although the flood season is not over yet, the water level has obviously dropped to normal, and there has been no more rain for several days.
So this time, crossing the river was much smoother than the last time.
Yan Nangui was still dizzy, but since this time they weren't in a rush, they ate and slept well, and only felt dizzy without vomiting.
Murong Liangyuan was in a very good mood, probably because she was going home to visit someone.
Seeing that the geese were returning south without vomiting, it seemed quite happy.
"We're almost at Qintang City. Although I've only been away for a few months, I've missed it terribly. There are some fresh foods in the city. How about I have someone buy some for my sister? Oh, and Jin-mei too."
If you are of equal status and have a good relationship, then you should naturally be ranked according to age.
However, their relationship was just so-so, so naturally, whoever entered the mansion first would be called "elder sister".
However, those of lower rank are naturally the younger sisters; it doesn't matter how old you are.
Jin Fengyi hurriedly stepped forward: "I thank Consort Murong very much. I have heard that this place is very nice in the past, but I have never been here. Now I have broadened my horizons."
Shu Chengfeng smiled and said, "It's a pity I have to return to the capital soon, but I'll still give you a few days to explore the city."
Although Yan Nangui's face was a little pale, she was in a good mood.
Making weights is one thing, but if you come to a place you've never been before, even if you can't go out for a walk, you can at least eat something good.
Soon, someone came to pick them up. It was a local official, of course.
People from the Murong clan were behind them.
After a lively discussion, the group got into the car and continued their journey into the city.
Because the dock is located far outside the city.
In the city, he lived in a villa belonging to a wealthy family.
The Murong family also has a separate residence, but it wouldn't be appropriate for Shu Chengfeng to live there directly.
He couldn't go in person either.
Although His Majesty is not too worried about associating with scholars, it would be a different story if they stayed at the Murong family's house.
Even a separate courtyard won't do.
Although they don't stay there, they still have to participate in the poetry debate. This is an annual event at Qinshan Academy.
This year, the arrival of His Highness the Crown Prince was brought forward by a few days.
Jiangnan is full of scholars and literati; who wouldn't want to show off in front of His Highness?
At these times, the students coming and going wished they could bring to see the Crown Prince all the things they had been writing since they were born.
All I ask for is to soar to the heavens.
As a result, Qintang City became exceptionally lively.
It was very hot. When Yan Nangui got off the carriage, she was only wearing a light yellow dress.
