The imperial city has just experienced the rebellion of Feng Mingxian, Emperor Qinglong was poisoned, and the blood flowed like a river.

Tomorrow's court is bound to be chaotic. The change of old and new forces involves the interests of many people. The former princelings will be even more panicked, fearing that sooner or later a reckoning will come.

The situation is unstable and the people's hearts are uncertain. At this time, to face the 80,000 army of the Ba family?

What's more, the adjacent areas such as the Shan Yu Metropolitan Protectorate of Anbei are all attached to the Ba family. All the way south, the Ba family will also gather some troops.

Since the founding of the Gao Mang Dynasty, it has only gone through two dynasties. There are many people who cherish the previous dynasty in their hearts, as well as the remnants of the rebel King Qianyang and the White Night, once someone raises the anti-flag, these people will definitely be moved.

Heading south from the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, there is nothing to do on the road. Jingshi is like a fat lamb, placed in front of the jackal.

The crown prince frowned and pondered. He had just become a crown prince, and he faced such a severe test.

Emperor Qinglong covered his heart and coughed a few times, and his eyes flashed with essence. The Ba family, he has long wanted to eradicate it! At this time, it is just right to send it to the door.

Glancing at the crown prince, Emperor Qinglong was silent. He wanted to see how the prince would deal with the matter.

"Father." The prince arched his hand and said: "Erchen is willing to lead the troops north to meet the Ba family thieves." ”

A smile appeared on Emperor Qinglong's face, he was able to take on a heavy responsibility at a critical moment, and the crown prince did not disappoint him. It seems that the queen taught her son excellently.

He waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, tomorrow you will attend the small court meeting on my behalf and discuss this matter with the ministers." Let's draw up a list first. ”

He doesn't know how long he will live this life. If he can hold out for some time, the prince will be able to lead his troops north and establish prestige in the army.

After recuperating for decades, Gao Mang's grain and grass are abundant and there are many generals, how can he be afraid of the rebellion of the little Ba family.

……

At the same time, Hebei Province, Hengzhou.

Xu Wanzhen rested for two days before relieving herself, and her legs, which were sore, were numb due to the night of missing the night on Wutai Mountain, and she was gradually able to walk without hindrance.

Thankfully, she had the little flame in her belly to protect her. In that cold night, I didn't catch a cold and get sick.

Tu Manfen didn't go out again, she talked to her in the courtyard, and only sent someone to buy clothes and powder back.

Hengzhou can be called the big city of Hebei Province, and Yunshang, Xujia business, Huayange, etc. have opened branches here. The style here may not be as good as in the capital, but as long as you are willing to spend silver, you can buy something with good quality.

Xu Wanzhen dug out a piece of newly bought balm, warmed it in the palm of her hand, and applied it evenly on her face.

A fine tingling sensation came back from the cheeks, but it was much better than it was on the first day.

The Northland is dry, and her skin is delicate, where can she withstand such devastation. The mask was worn all the time, and the skin could not breathe. Lack of moisture, and even peeling in some places.

Endured the stinging pain and finished smearing the balm, Xu Wanzhen took a self-portrait in the mirror. The woman in the mirror is so thin that her chin is pointed. couldn't help laughing at himself, if he appeared in the capital like this, I was afraid that he would suffer a lot of discussions, and he had to raise it back quickly.

"Cousin," Tu Manfen pushed the door in, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang has found a maid and said to take care of your daily life." ”

Putting a deed on the table, she said, "My sister doesn't have a maid by her side, so it's always inconvenient." ”

Wang Leyu is careful in his work, Xu Wan is really Tu Manfen's cousin, and Wu Zhengxiang's wife, so he naturally has to be more attentive. With his identity, he only showed a little bit of tone, and Hengzhou Sima sent a few people over diligently.

I have to say that this Zhao Sima in Hengzhou is very good at being a man. Because of the fear that Xu Wanzhen's identity would be kept secret, Wang Leyu couldn't say it clearly, and the women he sent had their own merits.

There are the kind of charming people, there are grandmothers who are good at the things of the back house, and there are also carefully trained maids. He knew that Wang Leyu had accompanied Tu Manfen on a trip, so he guessed that he was going to serve people and please beauties.

Wang Leyu saw these women, left a maid with an innocent background, and asked Tu Manfen to send it over.

Xu Wanzhen was not polite to him, and accepted the deed with a smile. With her current status, doing everything herself hurts face. I don't know when I will return to Beijing, and she really needs a maid on the way.

Seeing her accept it, Tu Manfen smiled and raised her voice: "Come in." ”

Outside the door came a maid with a double bun, about thirteen or fourteen years old, her face was calm, and she curtshowed in a proper manner. "The maid has seen two ladies."

She was picked out by Zhao Sima, and she didn't know who she was going to serve.

Tu Manfen pointed at Xu Wanzhen and said, "This is the young lady you are going to serve, be careful." ”

"Yes." She answered, standing quietly by her side.

"What's your name?" Xu Wanzhen asked.

"Back to the young lady's words, the former master called the maid Caixia and asked the young lady to give her name."

Xu Wanzhen nodded, seeing that her rules were not bad, Wang Leyu was a good person, and she accepted this favor. After thinking for a while, he said, "You will be called Zhiyan." ”

Zhiqing thanked her again, and Xu Wanzhen said, "You go and make a pot of hot tea." "I put my mind to compare her, and I also separated her.

Waiting for Zhiyan to retreat, Xu Wan really winked at Tu Manfen and said, "Where did you find such a clever person, Lord Wang, this is Aiwu and Wu." ”

The meaning of her words made Tu Manfenten's face blush, and she hurriedly told her origin, and said, "What does this have to do with me, it is that Sima wants to please him." ”

Xu Wanzhen covered her laughter and asked rhetorically, "When did I say that I had something to do with you?" ”

Only then did Tu Manfen react and said that he had leaked his mouth, and he was so ashamed that he covered his face with Luo Pa and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Good sister, this is a good thing, what are you ashamed of." Xu Wanzhen stepped forward to take down her Luopa, looked at her seriously and said, "I see that Lord Wang is very interested in you, what do you think?" ”

Both of them are women, and they don't need to avoid taboos when they talk like a boudoir girl.

"I ......" Tu Manfen's eyes were a little confused. Don't hide it from my cousin, after I left, I just wanted to do something with Mr. Ning, and I didn't think about remarrying at all. ”

"I just realized that the outside world is not what I saw in the Tu family and the Cheng family at all."

Hearing her say this, Xu Wan really understood it. Tu Manfen was taken care of too well when she was a child, and she received the most traditional women's education, believing that it is a woman's natural mission to teach her husband and children.

After following Mr. Ning, she suddenly discovered that only a woman could live such a wonderful life. It's like opening a window for her and seeing a different scenery.

However, in this era, it is extremely difficult for women. If you don't meet a good man, you still hope that Tu Manfen can have a happy marriage when you meet her.

"Cousin, since this person has appeared, you have to think about it. Would you like to spend the rest of your life with him? ”

Xu Wanzhen didn't allow her to continue to escape, and looked at Tu Manfen with burning eyes and asked.
