In the war in the Northland, they are the closest and have the most first-hand news.

Xu Wanzhen pretended to be in the name of Tu Manfen and sent a letter to Xu Wenmin, so that he could have time to deal with it. or evacuate the shopkeeper, or close the shop in the north, how to do it, Xu Wenmin has to make an idea.

Sure enough, speaking of this, Xu Wanzhen turned her attention.

"Count the days, and the letter should come. Xu Wanzhen lowered her eyes and said, "I hope it's still too late." ”

I heard the news yesterday that the Ba Jiajun had already pulled out and went straight to Daizhou. Daizhou is vast and sparsely populated, and it seems that it can't stop the 80,000 army.

Tu Manfen comforted her and said: "Don't worry, the court has ordered the prince to lead the army north, and this battle won't last long." ”

Feng Mingxian was deposed, King Qi was established as the crown prince, and the news that he led the army north also reached the ears of the two. It's just that militarily, they are all laymen who can't be laymen anymore, and listening to these news, they can only secretly pray for a quick end to this battle.

The ship continued to travel south for a few days, during which time Xu Wanzhen received a letter from Wu Zhengxiang reporting his safety.

The gloom on her face faded away, and since she couldn't do anything, she might as well leave it behind. Think carefully about how to deal with the situation in Beijing.

Fengqi got Wu Zhengxiang's order, and all the news was not hidden from her. As long as she asks, I try to answer for her.

"When I arrived at the Luoshui Wharf, I walked with my cousin Manfen and went back to Mr. Ning's house to settle down. Xu Wanzhen made a decision after thinking about it.

She thought about it, and she was supposed to be in the Queen Mother's Palace, but she suddenly appeared in front of her, and only Mr. Ning would not make a fuss.

Feng Mingxian has been deposed, Wang Miaoyan and Lei Ba are in prison, and Chen's hemiplegia is paralyzed. Although the war has started in the north, all the people in the capital who are unfavorable to her have been ambushed.

All she has to do is continue to hide from her relatives and create the illusion of coming back from the palace. appeared in front of everyone's eyes in a good manner, making some of Kyori's speculations against her disappear.

Thinking of this, Xu Wan's heart really warmed. After her disappearance, so many people nervous her and cleaned up the aftermath for her.

The Queen Mother personally took action to suppress those rumors. Even if there is some speculation in secret, I don't dare to talk about it in the open.

She was making a sable fur sleeve warmer in her hand.

When he got on the boat, Wang Leyu sent people to transport a number of cages up. Yan Ming was a gift for her and Tu Manfen to bring back to the capital.

After this incident, the relationship between the two sisters became more and more intimate, regardless of each other. Looking at the gift list, there are many exquisite things in it, and there are many treasures among them.

Because it was Wang Leyu's intention, Xu Wanzhen only picked up a few of them, and left the rest for Tu Manfen.

This sable fur is only the size of two palms of an adult man, but it is thick and oily, and it is warm to the touch. When Xu Wanzhen saw it, she thought of using this to make a sleeve warmer for Empress Dowager Xiao, so she stayed.

Her dowry is rich, and Xu Wenmin loves her very much, and often sends her some good things. Most of Wang Leyu's gifts were left to Tu Manfen.

Because Tu Manfen's hands really don't have many decent things. The Tu family is in the hands of the Lin family, even if she loves her eldest granddaughter, she has to plan for her son and grandson, and the marriage is really decent.

And although the Cheng family is a Hou Mansion, it has a large population, and it is not her turn to be the second-room daughter-in-law if there are any good things. Cheng Jinghao even used her dowry to go out for fun, and if she didn't allow it, she would add bad words. Even, I stole her dowry to change.

This back and forth, Tu Manfen really didn't get much dowry. also folded a few dowry maids in Cheng's mansion and became Cheng Jinghao's aunt and room.

Wang Leyu sent these because he should have understood Tu Manfen's situation.

At first, Tu Manfen was adamant. She is a divorced woman, and she accepts a man's gift for no reason, what is the matter?

But Wang Leyu did a clever job of saying that these gifts were for the two of them. Xu Wanzhen persuaded her with good words, and used her name to let Tu Manfen accept it temporarily.

Wang Leyu's heart, Tu Manfen is in his heart. The nobility of the gift cannot represent a man's heart, but being willing to give such a valuable gift at least proves her status in his heart.

Every time I think of this, Tu Manfen's heart is worried. was excited and a little uneasy, and even she couldn't understand how she felt about Wang Leyu.

Xu Wan really got this fine sable fur, and remembered that Empress Dowager Xiao was afraid of cold. There was nothing to do on the ship, so when he docked to replenish supplies, he asked Zhiyan to follow the purchasers ashore and bought some embroidery, needlework and thread on the ship.

She lined the sable fur with thick velvet as a lining. I chose a piece of silver-purple brocade fabric, and embroidered a double phoenix pattern with gold thread on it, which was both solemn and exquisite.

It's just that the patterns are complicated, and it takes a lot of effort to embroider, and at this time it is just a silhouette.

Tu Manfen picked up the warm sleeve and looked at it for a moment, and praised: "My cousin's female celebrity can be called the top in Beijing." "This unwarmed sleeve has not yet been completed, and you can already see what it will look like when it is finished.

Xu Wanzhen smiled lightly: "My cousin praised it falsely. Our Xu family is good at silk, if I am not good at being a woman, wouldn't it be a shame for my grandmother. ”

Tu Manfen shook his head with a smile and said, "It's still my sister who has worked hard, and she can also have such skills." There are many merchants who make silk, and I don't see the daughters of those families embroidering like you. ”

"Don't praise me. Xu Wanzhen smiled: "You can help me think about it, this time I asked Mr. Ning to bring her some gifts." ”

Xu Wanzhen knew Mr. Ning better than Tu Manfen, and when she talked about it at this time, she was just looking for some topics on the boat to pass the time.

Tu Manfen also knew her thoughts, although the two of them had their own thoughts on the ship, they also talked and laughed in the past.

……

Luoyang, the imperial city.

Su Liangzhi carefully administered a needle to Emperor Qinglong to expel the poison. Half an hour later, sweat was already visible on the corners of his forehead. Standing beside him was the chamberlain of the Imperial Hospital, wiping away the beads of sweat with a handkerchief.

After another quarter of an hour, Su Liangzhi put away the silver needle and instructed: "Father, rest in peace, don't worry too much." ”

Having said that, the crown prince led the troops to fight in the north, and Emperor Qinglong sat in the rear to command. The situation is already unstable, and at this time, you have to worry about everything, how can you not think about it?

Princess Chunhe forced a smile and said with a smile: "Father, you promised your son to name your son's first child. Fu'er has always remembered this, and you are not allowed to play tricks. ”

Emperor Qinglong inhaled slowly, suppressing the pain coming from his body. looked at the loving two people in front of him, and smiled: "You have no jokes." If I have answered Fu'er, how can I break my word?"

"Well, you don't have to worry about me, I have my own body. Colt, go and see the broken dust. ”

Jiang Bingwei, after arriving at the Taimiao, was called a dusty layman.

After being poisoned with Emperor Qinglong, Empress Cao placed her in Emperor Qinglong's bedroom and received treatment together.
