Chapter 501 Everyone has their own path to follow
What Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang didn’t know was that the entire Yuanjing now knew that they were going to study abroad.
There are many people who are ready to make trouble. Among them, families with princes in the harem and those who have grudges against Zhao Lingmeng are the most active.
So, the various whistleblowers in Yuanjing were making a fortune. Sometimes someone saw them appear in the west, sometimes in the east. Anyway, their stories were well-founded and well-founded. There were still many people willing to pay for them.
Of course, this also includes Zhao Lingmeng’s people, but Zhao Lingmeng has no grudge against silver.
Of course, some people are happy about Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang leaving Beijing, while others are worried about it.
The one who is most worried among them is the eldest daughter of the Yuan family. Her current situation in the Yuan Mansion is very bad.
After Zhao Lingmeng's cold treatment for a period of time, the entire Yuanjing felt that Princess Funing was disgusted with the eldest daughter of the Yuan family, so the third young master Zhao is now the default candidate for a good husband in the entire Yuanjing.
At such a young age, with no bad habits and hard work, you are already a scholar. Don't think that being a scholar is not worth anything.
Among the many children of nobles, those who can pass the examination to become a scholar are considered outstanding. With the support of family connections, it is only a matter of time before they rise to prominence.
Moreover, Fan Houyang is now the Earl's son and will inherit the title of Prince Consort in the future. He also grew up with Prince Ruihe, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they are like brothers.
If you really think about it, he is the most promising child in Princess Funing's mansion.
So the people in Yuanjing are all waiting for Princess Funing to cancel the engagement for her youngest son!
Of course, these people in the Yuan Mansion also thought so, especially Mr. Yuan and Miss Yuan’s stepmother. One was angry at their lack of fighting spirit, and the other was gloating over their misfortune.
But no matter which one it was, Miss Yuan was already an abandoned child. A child with a stepmother and a stepfather. Of course, she couldn't live a good life in the Yuan Mansion.
Even with Zhao Lingmeng's apparent inaction, Miss Yuan witnessed the wickedness of human nature in less than a year.
She no longer had the innocence and self-righteousness she once had. Now that she was sensible, she realized how ridiculous it was for her to brazenly say that she was doing it for the sake of Princess Funing.
A person whose mother and father didn't love him, whose mind was not clear, and who had nothing, actually said in front of the princess of such a high status that he was doing it for her face. When Miss Yuan thought about it now, she wanted to slap herself to death.
So her only hope now is that Prince Fan really wants to marry her, so that she will have hope in her future life.
Ever since Miss Yuan learned that Prince Fan had gone on a study tour, she had been tossing and turning, unable to sleep well for many nights. Countless thoughts were running through her mind.
But she knew that she was in danger now, and no matter how many ideas she had, they were unrealistic. Not to mention that she couldn't contact Prince Fan at all, even if she could, if she dared to stop him from traveling for her own peace of mind, she was afraid that Princess Funing would directly cause her to die of illness.
Miss Yuan thought about it for a long time, and finally started burning incense and praying to Buddha in the yard, silently praying for Master Fan and herself. This was all she could do now.
Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang no longer had time to think about these things. They had to train, go out to fight bandits, and find time to watch the imperial examinations and follow their mother's and aunt's arrangements.
Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang even have to calculate their sleeping time, let alone think about these trivial things.
Time went by slowly. When Zhao Lingmeng and the others were celebrating the holiday, Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang were training. When Zhao Lingmeng and the others were resting, Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang were reading.
For Zhao Lingmeng, the past two years have been incredibly slow. So slow, so slow, that she not only developed biogas power generation and cement production in her village, but also repaired the road from her village to Yuanjing at her own expense.
The emperor also wanted to repair roads in other places, so Zhao Lingmeng gave him the technology without hesitation. However, the technology was useless because the emperor had no money.
Jing State has only been at peace in the past few years, and the people have recovered a little, but they can only get enough coarse grains and water to fill their stomachs, and anything more is not enough.
So the emperor looked at the technology he had acquired and could only repair a small section to satisfy his own needs.
Unlike Zhao Lingmeng, Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang felt that time passed very quickly. They were busy from the moment they opened their eyes every day until they went to bed at night, and they had no time to rest.
The efforts of Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang were not without reward. After two years of military life, they both had a fierce aura. After all, their hands were stained with blood, and they were no longer the scholarly temperament they once were. They looked introverted and sharp.
No matter what, Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang finally looked forward to the day of leaving the military camp.
Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang rode out of the military camp and couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Hahaha, I'm finally out." Prince Ruihe felt that he had really had enough of the food in the barracks. It had no taste at all. Even after eating it for more than two years, he still couldn't get used to it.
"Yes, cousin. Where are you going now?" Fan Houyang said excitedly. He was anxious to go home for dinner!
Yang Chengchen looked at his cousin and knew that he was thinking about going back home for dinner. He quickly said, "I'll go back with you to see my aunt first. I haven't seen my aunt for a long time. Let's go back to the palace after that! It won't hurt to wait a little longer."
"Keep pretending. My cousin must be missing the food at my mother's house." After Fan Houyang finished teasing, he whipped his beloved horse lightly and rode away quickly.
Yang Chengchen was not angry. He had played all kinds of jokes in the military camp, so he just shouted loudly, "Fan San, wait for me!"
Then he rode his horse to chase Fan Houyang.
When Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang arrived at the house, the food was already on the table and the whole family was waiting for them to come back.
As soon as Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang arrived at the mansion, they went straight to Menglin Courtyard.
As soon as they entered the yard, they saw Zhao Lingmeng and Fan Yong sitting in the main seats, Zhao Houjing, Zhao Houming and Zhao Zhili were all sitting around the table. The two empty seats were obviously reserved for them.
"Meet the mother!"
"Hello, auntie!"
Yang Chengchen and Fan Houyang both saluted with a smile. Originally, Fan Houyang was going to salute deeply, but since his cousin was here, it would be inappropriate, so he just followed suit.
Zhao Lingmeng looked at the two of them carefully. Seeing that no parts were missing, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, you've gotten darker, thinner, and taller. It seems that you two have had a very fulfilling study tour!"
