The flowers are blooming, and the spring is getting old. The lotus is fragrant, and the long summer is coming.

In front of the bright Xiaoxuan window, Yao Fengge took off the white velvet flowers between his sideburns in front of the dressing mirror and replaced them with a hairpin with red gold and emeralds. Su Yuxiang died three years ago, and the white yarn pile of plum blossoms is a decoration that has never been lacking in her sideburns.

In the past three years, she has lived in a simple place, quietly expanding the business of Renjitang Pharmacy step by step, Jiangning, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Gusu, and even Huguang, Fujian and other places have successively established branches, and the pharmaceutical industry outside the seven provinces south of the Jinhe River has been occupied by her.

"My sister's complexion is getting better and better." Yao Yanyu chose a red musk bracelet from the jewelry box and brought it to Yao Fengge. Today's Yao Fengge is less depressed than before, and has added a bit of mature charm, plus she was originally a rare beauty, and now she is even more beautiful.

Yao Fengge raised his hand and stroked his white cheeks, and chuckled: "I am in the medicinal herb business, and I don't lack maintenance prescriptions, how can it be bad?" ”

Yao Yanyu turned his head to look at the maid beside him, and after ordering everyone to retreat, Fang said in a low voice: "The news from the capital said that the princess of Hengjun died of illness, and the king of Hengjun played the emperor, and asked his son to attack the lord, and he wanted to go to the fief to recuperate." ”

Yao Fengge was slightly stunned and nodded: "I heard about it too." ”

"What are your sister's plans?" Yao Yanyu asked again.

"What can I do?" Yao Fengge smiled helplessly and shook his head again.

Yao Yanyu sighed softly, and said with a smile: "Doesn't my sister know that Prince Heng's fiefdom is in Tangling?" ”

Yao Fengge nodded: "I know." ”

"Judging from the geographical environment of Tanglin, this place will be prosperous in the future, and I want to set up the main hall of our pharmacy over there."

Hearing this, Yao Fengge couldn't help but look up at Yao Yanyu, and said for a while: "I don't think the geographical environment of Tanglin is very good. Although the pirates have stopped in the past two years, they can't be compared with Jiangsu and Zhejiang. ”

"What if the emperor revokes the ban on the sea?" Yao Yanyu smiled and asked: "My sister is familiar with history books, and she should also know that the prosperous era two hundred years ago, when the former Emperor of the Pilgrim Emperor was in power, the four seas were called ministers, and the beautiful scenery of all nations should not be needed." ”

Seeing that Yao Fengge didn't speak, Yao Yanyu continued: "If you want to calm the pirates, you must solve the problem fundamentally. Only by opening a sea ban and opening a treaty port to allow merchants from all over the world to trade with the Great Cloud Dynasty can the pirates completely submit to the imperial court and return the coastal people to a peaceful and prosperous era. I don't think my sister should understand this. ”

"Even if the emperor revokes the ban on the sea, what does it have to do with Tanglin? It is just a high-class county, and neither the workshop nor the trade can be compared with Suzhou, Hangzhou and Jiangning. Yao Fengge asked curiously.

Yao Yanyu chuckled: "But where can you build a deep-water port, you can berth a large merchant ship." At the same time, there is Qingjiang and Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Ningxia are connected, and it will definitely be the largest trading port of the Dayun Dynasty in the future. ”

Yao Fengge fell silent when he heard this. Before, she naturally didn't understand these things, but in recent years, she has been in charge of the pharmacy business, and knows which overseas merchants like the silk, porcelain, tea, etc. of the Great Cloud Dynasty the most. And these foreign merchants seem to have an endless supply of silver in their hands.

The same piece of silk was sold to overseas merchants for twelve times as much as it was sold at home; Tea and porcelain are even worse, until the spring of this year, because the pirates were repeatedly attacked by Wei Zhang, they had to retreat to the islands to rob those islanders, and there was no way to rob the people of Dayun, those foreign merchants could not buy these things at all, and they had already offered thirty times the domestic price, just to be able to privately buy high-quality tea and porcelain from the hands of Jiangnan tea merchants and porcelain merchants.

Thinking of this, Yao Fengge smiled lightly, patted Yao Yanyu's hand and said, "I don't understand the big situation, I listen to my sister about these big things." ”

"Okay." Yao Yanyu smiled and nodded, "The Food and Drug Administration in Suzhou and Hangzhou is on the right track, and my next target is Tanglin." My sister is ready to come with me. ”

Yao Fengge nodded lightly: "Okay." ”

Three months later, the Qingjiang River entered the sea.

A large ship is moored between the blue sea waves, bathing in the golden sunset in the sky, which looks particularly majestic and majestic.

The guards standing at the bow and stern of the ship were all strong and strong, standing in the bow like a javelin.

The flag fluttering on the mast with red edges is embroidered with a big 'Ning' character with silver thread, the font is graceful, dignified, and atmospheric, which is the royal pen of today's handwriting.

The boat was brightly lit, and from a distance, you could see maids wearing light gauze long skirts and blue shoulders walking back and forth.

There was a cheerful laughter that occasionally reached the shore with the evening breeze, and the officers and men guarding the shore secretly glanced at it, and there was a smile in the corners of their eyes and eyebrows that could not be concealed.

In the cabin, a sumptuous banquet was placed in the center, the emperor's number one confidant, the deputy governor of the Zhenfu Division, and the emperor's brother Chen Bingyi sat in the VIP position wearing a red Jinlin guard robe, holding a glass cup in his hand and said to Marquis Ning on the throne with a smile: "The emperor is happier when he hears the southeast good news than last year's southwest good news. The emperor said that pirates have been a big problem for our Dayun Dynasty for 110 years, and now Marquis Ning has finally pacified the southeast sea frontier after five years of hard work, which can be described as a thousand years of merit! ”

Wei Zhang hurriedly got up and bowed to the north and said: "It is the emperor's grand plan to pacify the sea frontier, the emperor is strategizing in Kyoto, Zhang is just doing things according to orders, the emperor is very kind to the minister, and the minister is terrified." ”

Chen Bingyi laughed, waiting for Wei Zhang to sit down again, Fang raised his glass and said to everyone in the banquet: "Come, this first glass of wine, let's celebrate the success of Marquis Ning." ”

Several of you here are all important members of the southeastern provinces, and when they heard this, they raised their glasses one after another, like Wei Zhang, and congratulated them one after another.

Wei Zhang raised his glass and touched everyone, and sighed: "Today's victory is also the result of your great help, the credit is not my Wei Zhang's alone, this cup of celebration wine should be drunk by everyone." ”

"What Master Hou said is true! Come, let's drink together! The prefect of Jiangsu and Zhejiang said with a smile.

"Drink together! Drink together! The prefect of Jiangning was also busy ordering a little round and chubby head.

It's all here, but it's quiet in the cabin upstairs.

Yao Yanyu sat cross-legged on the low couch and listened to Xu Shiyang's wife Lu Shi reply in a low voice: "...... Lord Chen came this time with two holy decrees, one is to commend him, and the other is to seize the military power in the hands of the marquis......"

Taking a breath secretly, Yao Yanyu waved her hand, signaling that there was no need to say anything more. As long as you know a little bit of history, you can understand that since ancient times, emperors have been most afraid of military power in the hands of military generals. People who have achieved high merit have never ended well.

Fortunately, Wei Zhang is in line with his own thoughts, knowing that it is enough to stop, and he does not make his own decisions about the major affairs of the nine thousand miles of sea frontier in the Dayun Dynasty.

Yao Yuanzhi also maintained a high degree of calmness on this matter, and recommended the Lu family, who had never dealt with the Yao family, to be the ambassador of peace talks, and discussed specific matters with Yu Hai, the leader of the sea thieves.

Wei Zhang had already received a letter from his old father-in-law, and when Chen Bingyi and Lu Jiaxiang arrived in Tangling, he showed great welcome, without the slightest arrogance, and attributed all the credit to the emperor's wisdom and the heroic resistance of his generals.

After several years of training, Wei Zhang's anger has also been subdued a lot, which makes Chen Bingyi silently wonder in his heart, thinking that is really the inextricable tenderness of the Yao Yuan that has turned the killing god of the Great Cloud Dynasty into a degree?

However, this doubt was answered early the next morning.

At that time, the morning dawn was blooming, and everything gradually woke up in my sleep. Chen Bingyi, who slept on the boat after drinking a few more glasses of wine, was woken up by a burst of laughter like silver bells, he raised his hand to wipe his face, pulled a long coat over his shoulders and went out, but saw Wei Zhang, who was dressed in royal blue homely civilian clothes, holding his daughter and standing on the bow of the boat to watch the sunrise.

The four or five-year-old girl was dressed in a big red brocade dress and pants, and her round little buttocks sat on the right shoulder of Wei Houye, holding her father's head with one hand and pointing to the red sun in the east with the other, and shouted happily: "Daddy! Look, the sun is dancing! ”

Wei Zhang raised his right hand to support his daughter's waist, grabbed her pair of little feet in front of him with his left hand, and said with a smile: "Well, Yiyi is right, the sun is really dancing." ”

The brilliant morning sun gradually left the sea through the layers of clouds, jumping into the sky one by one, and the glow of the sun was reflected on the sea, the golden scales were shining, and the waves were magnificent.

"Jump out! Jump out! Daddy, look......" the little girl shouted happily waving her little hands.

"Shhhh Wei Zhang turned his head sideways to look at his daughter who was dancing on his shoulder, and made a silent motion.

Chen Bingyi was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but smile bitterly: If last night's Marquis Wei was just a little different, then at this moment, he and the impression are almost like two people. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that the most ruthless man in the Great Cloud Dynasty would have such a warm side.

Wei Zhang heard that there was someone behind him, so he looked sideways, and when he saw that it was Chen Bingyi, Fang smiled indifferently: "Lord Chen." ”

"Master Hou, it's early." Chen Bingyi collected the emotions in his heart and stepped forward, reached out and pinched Yiyi's little fat hand.

"Good morning, Uncle Chen." Yiyi sat on Wei Zhang's shoulder and greeted Chen Bingyi.

Chen Bingyi nodded with a smile, and sighed again: "Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, the little county lord is so big!" ”

"yes, five years have passed in a blink of an eye." Wei Zhang also sighed a little, "It's really time to make people old." ”

Chen Bingyi immediately laughed: "It is too decadent for Hou Ye to say this just after the year of his establishment. ”

"Age is only one reason, the main thing is the mentality." Wei Zhang said, sighed softly, took his daughter back into his arms from his shoulders, and said with a smile: "I just hope that after the peace talks, I will unload this burden of gold on my shoulders and go home to accompany my daughter well." ”

Chen Bingyi smiled: "Haven't the lady and the children always been by the side of the Hou Ye?" ”

"No, I haven't seen my dad in more than three months!" Yiyi didn't wait for Wei Zhang to speak, so he opened his two little arms around Wei Zhang's neck, and sighed like an adult: "When will Daddy accompany me to the mountains to catch birds!" ”

Looking at her pretending to be a deep little appearance, Chen Bingyi and Wei Zhang couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Bingyi stretched out his hand and rubbed Yiyi's chubby face, and quipped: "There are so many people in the family, don't they play with the little county master?" ”

"How can the family compare with my father and mother? That time, my brother and I followed my fourth uncle to the mountains to collect medicinal herbs, and we saw that other people's children were with their parents all day long, but my brother and I didn't ......," Yiyi said, her little mouth pursed again.

Chen Bingyi sighed: "I heard that Madame is busier than Master Hou? ”

"yes." Wei Zhang smiled helplessly, "Although there is a war on my side, it is not fought every day, but on her side, it is a day that I can't wait to use as two days." The children usually follow their aunt and do not see their mother several times a month. ”

"No matter how busy other people's families are, there are still wives in charge of feeding and raising their children, but Hou Ye's wife is the same as the pillar of Dayun, and she must be loyal to the country. At that time, the emperor also told his ministers that Ning Hou and his wife were in Sheji and were the pillars of the Great Cloud Dynasty. ”

"It is the duty of a courtier to be loyal to the country, and only then can there be a home." Wei Zhang smiled slightly: "The emperor is benevolent and loves the people, and as a courtier, he should abide by his duty and worry about the king." ”

Chen Bingyi smiled and nodded, and the two of them talked some more gossip, waiting for the sun to gradually rise and the clouds in the east gradually faded before turning back to the cabin.

Xiao Yiyi fell asleep on Wei Zhang's shoulder again, and was still holding his father's neck in his sleep.

Wei Zhang rubbed the back of his daughter's head dotingly, whispered a few words in her ear, and the little girl let go of her arms and buried herself sideways into her father's arms, but grabbed the placket on his chest and continued to sleep. Chen Bingyi looked at these, only sighed silently in his heart, and did not speak.

Chen Bingyi, as an envoy of the Son of Heaven, only stayed in Tanglin for two days before returning to Beijing.

Two months later, under the strong pressure of the Universiade Navy, Yu Hai, the biggest leader of the pirates, was recruited, and Emperor Jinglong made Yu Hai the Marquis of the South China Sea with the heart of Huairou and the four seas, and more than 2,000 cronies and subordinates were rewarded with different titles, and 100,000 pirates were organized into the Dayun Imperial Navigation Escort Guard.

This navy did not receive money from the imperial court under the banner of the imperial guard, and had to pay 1 million taels of silver to the imperial court every year, and was responsible for the trade security between the Great Cloud Dynasty and the maritime merchants of various countries.

To put it bluntly, that is, they used a tribute of one million taels of silver per year to obtain the right to maintain the sea route from the imperial court, and this royal guard was supported by merchants from overseas countries, and the Dayun court also took the benefit of one hundred thousand taels of silver for nothing.

The rudiments of these negotiation conditions were negotiated between Yao Yanyu and Wei Zhang, and the principles were directly submitted to the emperor's dragon case, and the emperor decided on the principles after careful consideration.

Of course, Yu Hai and his 100,000 subordinates were able to accept such conditions and swear allegiance to the country for the rest of their lives, half of which was due to Marquis Ning's strong suppression in the past five years, and the other half was also because of the unlimited interests on the sea route.

One million taels of silver is only one-twelfth of the thousands of miles of sea in the Great Cloud Dynasty, and he uses this twenty-percent benefit in exchange for an upright identity for himself, and can shade his descendants, why not?

The matter was over, and the emperor's decree of reward arrived, and Weizhang was named a first-class Ning Zhonghou, hereditary and the title was not reduced for three generations.

When he established the prince, Yao Yanyu originally thought that Wei Zhang would establish Ling Hao, but he didn't want Wei Zhang to think about it, so he reported Ling Xiao's name.

When there was no one at night, Yao Yanyu asked the reason, and Wei Zhang chuckled: "Ling Xiao is also my son, the same as Ling Hao and Ling Qin. Moreover, Ling Hao is not material for martial arts, so why bother to use a martial arts title to bind him? ”

Yao Yanyu thought about it, Ling Hao frowned when he saw his eldest brother practicing martial arts, and he didn't lose his smile, and asked, "Isn't there still Ling Qin?" ”

Wei Zhang leaned sideways and hugged the soft body beside him into his arms, and sighed lightly: "Are you sure that Qin'er will not inherit your mantle in the future?" ”

"That's just as well." Yao Yanyu sighed helplessly, Ling Qin showed great interest in medicine, although he was only four years old, he already knew the names of more than 160 kinds of medicinal materials and the basic medicinal properties, and the family said that the third master was a medical wizard, and he studied medicine in his womb.

Looking at Wei Zhang's calm face, Yao Yanyu reached out and stroked his deep eyebrows, and asked in a low voice, "Don't you feel sorry?" "I gave my hard-earned title to my adopted son, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

"Do you regret it?" Wei Zhang's rough fingers gently stroked the sharp chin of the lady, she has been working hard in the past few years, and she is more tired than fighting, Wei Hou Ye misses her round and lovely little round face very much, but it is a pity that the pointed jaw is no longer round.

Yao Yanyu smiled and shook her head gently: "No, I don't think it's a good thing to be an official, if I can, I hope my children can live a free life without being bound by anyone." ”

"Yiyi is a girl's family, naturally everything follows her temperament, and I will give her whatever she wants." Speaking of the children, Wei Zhang's eyes deepened a little, "As for Hao'er, he likes to read, so let him read." Marquis Xiao reads well, and when he returns to Beijing, he can be sent to Jinghai Marquis Mansion to study with Xiao Xuan. Qin'er likes medical skills, let him follow you, Ling Xiao likes to practice martial arts, and he happens to be the eldest son in the family, so he will rely on him in the future. ”

"That's fine." Yao Yanyu nodded, so that the four children could do what they liked.

Wei Zhang looked at Yao Yanyu's thoughtful expression, and added: "I asked Ling Xiao, and he is willing to change his surname to Wei." In the future, his eldest son's surname is his real surname, and his real surname is the blood of his biological parents, and the other children are surnamed Wei, and they are the descendants of my Wei family. ”

Yao Yanyu smiled: "Since you have arranged everything, I will be relieved." I'm just afraid that you will feel wronged, and none of your own children can inherit your mantle. ”

"If you have to say that, I really feel a little wronged." Wei Zhang said, laughing dumbly.

"What then?" Yao Yanyu also frowned slightly.

"It's easy to do—let's have another one, okay?" Wei Zhang said, lowered his head and kissed the tip of his wife's nose gently, "Those two little cubs are already four years old, although we have been together less and separated more in the past few years, I have worked hard for my husband, why haven't I been pregnant again?" ”

Yao Yanyu was silent, in the past few years, she has been running around for the Food and Drug Administration and the medical school, knowing that her body will definitely be unbearable if she gets pregnant again, so she has been contraceptive, and her unique contraceptive pills are not only effective but also do not hurt the body, as well as the effect of warm supplements, and now it is one of the best-selling drugs in the pharmacy.

Before, Yao Yanyu thought that the ancients advocated having more children and more blessings, and the contraceptive pill must be a taboo thing, and only the women of the Qinglou would use it, but she didn't expect that those housewives who were in charge of big families were very interested in this medicine - of course, most of the medicine was not bought by themselves, but no matter who it was given to, these people did not feel sorry for the silver when they bought the medicine, and they would rather spend a lot of money to buy good medicine, and if they could prevent pregnancy, it would be less evil than having an abortion.

Suddenly, a pain in her lips interrupted Mrs. Yao's thoughts.

"Shhhh Xiu frowned slightly, and Mrs. Yao gave Wei Hou Ye a slap in the face.

"Is it because my skills are poor? Actually makes you distracted at such a time? Wei Zhangjian raised his eyebrows, and after speaking, he lowered his head and kissed him fiercely.

"No ......," Mrs. Yao lowered her eyelids weakly.

"Did you hear what I just said?"

"Listen...... See. "You think you want to have another child? That's right, right? Mrs. Yao thought silently.

"Then we'll try again tonight, huh?" He asked, kissing her softly, his fingers lit up all the way to the strategic location.

"Hmm......" Mrs. Yao nodded lightly, her breathing already messed up. They haven't been together for two months, it's the age of youth, who can withstand such bewitchment?

In the Biluo tent, the red waves are turned, the phoenix is upside down, and the love of husband and wife never sleeps.

……

The winter of the sixth year of Jinglong. Wei Zhang had been ordered to divide the Dayun Navy into four parts, which were handed over to Tang Xiaoyi, Ge Hai, and Han Entropy, the cousin of Han Entropy, the Duke of Zhenguo, and Xu Chengmang, another confidant of the emperor. And Wei Zhang only took 5,000 fierce eagles and Wei Zema back to Beijing to resume his life. And Yao Yanyu stayed in Tanglin with her children because the matter of the Food and Drug Administration and the medical school had not yet been completed.

On this day, Yao Yanyu finished a busy day's work, got up with her sour waist and walked to the door of the duty room of the Tanglin Food and Drug Administration. Seeing this, the personal maid Zisui hurriedly came forward with a cloak of white sable fur and put it on her: "Madam, it's snowing outside, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Yao Yanyu reached out and grabbed the front of the cloak to wrap herself, and looked up at the gloomy sky after going out. Sure enough, there were small snowflakes floating down sporadically, and the cold wind carried moisture in the cold wind, blowing cold on the face.

Seeing Yao Yanyu standing in the courtyard for a while, Lu Shi stepped forward and said, "Madam, it's not early, the carriage is ready, let's go home?" ”

"Okay." Yao Yanyu glanced back at the duty room for her office, the door of the big red carved lacquer partition door and glass was open, standing here, she could see the carved case full of scrolls and manuscripts, and the first draft of the "Dayun Pharmacopoeia" on the desk was more than a foot thick, which was the result of her seven or eight years of sorting out and revising day and night.

It's tiring, but it's worth it.

Yao Yanyu smiled slightly, turned around and went back to the house, walked to the side of the case, raised her hand and stroked the four words "Dayun Pharmacopoeia" on the cover, and her fingertips seemed to be reluctant to leave.

"Madam, the official draft of the "Dayun Pharmacopoeia" has been sealed in a yellow box and sent to the capital, maybe the emperor has seen it at this time." Xiang Zhi sighed on the side: "Madame has worked hard for so many years, and it is finally completed. ”

"It's just the beginning, there are still many places in it that are not complete, we still need to continue to repair, I hope I can do this well in my lifetime." Yao Yanyu sighed.

Xiangzhi was about to say something, but Lu Shi hurriedly pushed the door in: "Madam, it's not good." ”

"What's the matter?" Yao Yanyu turned around and looked at Lu Shi with a frown.

"The elder Ge came with a letter, saying that the old lady is not good, and he wants the lady to return to Beijing as soon as possible." As Lu spoke, he handed over a handwritten letter from Yao Yuanzhi with both hands.

"Is the old lady bad?" Yao Yanyu was shocked, took a deep breath after taking the letter, and tore open the envelope with a trembling hand.

Yao Yuanzhi's letter was very simple, only saying that the old lady accidentally slipped and fell while enjoying the snow, and then the person was not good, and the Zhang Laoyuan Ling of the Tai Hospital and the Hua Tai Doctor of the Chinese Medical Center had seen it, saying that it was not very good, so that Yao Yanyu and Yao Fengge sisters and the children of the side branch who were closer to the Yao family in Jiangning came to Beijing as soon as possible.

Yao Yuanzhi is now at the head of the ministers, if the old lady really died, this funeral is not trivial.

"Sister-in-law Xu, you send this letter to your sister immediately, Xiangzhi, you take someone home to pack your luggage." After Yao Yanyu finished speaking, he asked Lu Shi again: "What about General Xu?" ”

Lu Shi hurriedly responded: "He is with the eldest young master, and he should practice in the forest in the back mountain at this time." ”

"Send someone to inform him, call the children together and hand them over to General Xu to take with him, and tell Shen Jiang and Tian Luo to clean up those stupid things later, and we will travel lightly and return to Beijing first."

"Yes." Lu agreed, took the letter and turned to go out.

Xiangzhi saw that although Yao Yanyu's face was calm, her eyes were already red, so she persuaded: "Madam, don't worry, we have been running around for the past few years, saying that we want to go out, the luggage is ready-made, and we can go on the road early tomorrow morning." ”

Yao Yanyu took a deep breath and nodded, "I know, let's go home." ”

If the old lady really can't do it, the Yao family will face a fatal blow.

First of all, Yao Yuanzhi, as a filial son, wants to help Ling return to his hometown, and then he has to keep filial piety for his mother for 27 months.

After twenty-seven months, the position of the first assistant of the cabinet has long been occupied by others, where will he still have his share of Yao Ge's elder?

Yao Yuan came down, and Yao Yanen and Yao Yanyi were not spared.

Filial sons and virtuous grandsons, there is no son who keeps filial piety, and the grandson continues to be an official, Yao Yanen and Yao Yanyi will have to worry for a year even if they are indispensable pillars of the country, not to mention that the court has not yet reached the point where they can't be transferred without them, so it is inevitable that the two of them will be worried with Yao Yuanyi.

In this way, Wei Zhang will lose the protection of the Yue family and the help of his two uncles, which is equivalent to breaking his hands and feet.

Whether it is because of political disagreements or personal grievances, the Yao family and the Ninghou Mansion have opponents in politics. The other party will definitely take advantage of this time to work hard to turn the tables and suppress Yao Wei and the two families to the minimum.

Yao Yanyu leaned in the car and returned home, falling into deep thought all the way.

Yao Fengge, who went to the pharmacy to check the accounts, also hurriedly packed his things and went home after receiving the letter sent by Xu Shiyang, preparing to go north to the capital with Yao Yanyu, but the carriage met an old man when he was halfway there.

The carriage stopped slowly, Yao Fengge frowned and lifted the curtains to look out, but saw a man in a crow-blue black fox fur cloak standing in the snowflakes, the north wind blew the hem of the cloak rustling, and his emaciated figure was like a bamboo in the cold wind, Xiao Suo was strong, and he was still outstanding despite the strong wind oppressing.

"Lord Wang?" Yao Fengge screamed.

"I'm not a prince anymore." Yun Min smiled slightly and took two steps forward, "I'm free now." ”

Yao Fengge was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Also, when you get rid of that shackle, you can relax and feel at ease." ”

Yun Min smiled and nodded slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Are there any important things that you are doing in such a hurry?" I'm an idler now, can I help you? ”

Yao Fengge didn't want to say more, but he still chose to be sincere in the other party's sincere gaze: "My grandmother is sick, and I want to go back to the capital in a hurry." ”

"What do you need me to do?" After Yun Min finished asking, he added: "I may not be able to help you with the affairs of the capital, but the affairs of Tanglin are still difficult for me." ”

Yao Fengge sighed softly, "Then please help me take care of the business of the pharmacy and the glass field." There are stewards to deal with specific matters, but there are still people to support the things outside. ”

Yun Min immediately understood what Yao Fengge meant, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry, your business is my business." ”

Yao Fengge bowed to Yun Min in the car: "Thank you." ”

"If I want to say thank you, I should thank you for a lot of places." Yun Min smiled gently, "It's cold in the north, take care of yourself." ”

Yao Fengge nodded: "You also take care." ”

"Okay." The corners of Yun Min's thin lips hooked up a doting smile.

Yao Fengge felt that he would be addicted if he looked at it any more, so he hurriedly looked away, raised his hand and lowered the curtain of the car and instructed the coachman: "Let's go." ”

The coachman raised his whip and drove forward, the cold wind blew the heavy curtain, Yun Min looked over stupidly, and happened to see Yao Fengge pinching the bean green handkerchief to wipe away tears.

Don't cry, I'll be with you for the rest of my life.

Yun Min had been standing there and watching the black oil-walled car fade away and disappear into the dim light.

Early in the morning of the second day, Yao Yanyu and Yao Fengge boarded the boat together and went north, the water flow of the Qingjiang River is large, and it does not freeze all year round, but the Yuntian River is not good. After the boat traveled along the Qingjiang River to Jiangning, it turned into the Yuntian River, and when the Yuntian River froze out of Nanzhili, they had to change to a land route, and at that time it was bumpy day and night, and they were simply guilty.

Fortunately, Liu Ji, the governor of river affairs, is very eye-catching, early in the Linzhou wharf prepared a double carriage, this year opened the sea ban, the rubber of the South Seas flowed into the clouds, like to enjoy the comfort of the clouds of the clouds have known how to wrap the wheels with rubber, although the problem of inflation has not been solved, but the original hard wooden wheels are wrapped in a thick layer of rubber, the effect of shock absorption is still good.

When Yao Yanyu saw such a carriage, she immediately had the idea of making a new type of carriage, but now that Old Madam Song's illness was imminent, Zong Ruina had no time to implement it.

In the carriage, Yao Fengge watched Yao Yanyu fall into deep thought as soon as she changed into a carriage, because she asked, "What does my sister think?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm just worried about the things in the south." Yao Yanyu sighed softly and asked again: "In the past few years, our sisters have had a smooth ride in the area of Jiangnan, Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the biggest reliance is on our father. If the old lady really can't do it, my father and two brothers will leave the court, and my sister said that those snobs will take advantage of the fire to rob and attack our business? ”

"There are definitely robberies while the fire is hot, but we are not so easy to bully. As long as you are still in the National Medical Pavilion, plus the forces of the Ninghou Mansion and the Dinghou Mansion, those people must think clearly if they want to move. ”

Besides, Donglin still has Yun Min here, although his throne was given to his son, but he is still the emperor's brother, the father of King Xiaoheng, although there is nothing to be done about political affairs, but it is no problem to keep some business. The emperor was only worried that he would seek to seize the throne, but he had no intention of starving him to death.

"My sister is right." Yao Yanyu nodded in agreement, as long as the Ninghou Mansion and the Dinghou Mansion were there, those young people would not dare to do anything easily. Besides, the Yao family is not so easy to bully.

After walking by land for another half a month, the Yao sisters took their children and servants all the way to Yundu City.

After six years of absence, and then returning to this prosperous and extravagant Dayun Imperial Capital, everyone naturally felt infinite emotion in their hearts, but this is not the time to express their feelings, and more importantly, the illness of Mrs. Song, so Yao Yanyu instructed Xu Shiyang and his wife and the spear and others who went out of the city to greet them to send the child back to Ninghou Mansion first, and he went directly to Yao Mansion with Yao Fengge.

Because the old lady was in a coma for days, Yao Yuanzhi was already in Shangshu Emperor and asked for leave to serve his mother at home. It's just that he himself is overworked on weekdays, after the emperor granted leave, he came back to serve for a few days and fell ill, in order to take care of convenience, Yao Yuanzhi simply recuperated in the wing room of the old lady's courtyard, and the imperial doctors only took care of their mother and son at the same time in this courtyard.

Yao's mansion was solemn, and even the Ning family, who was reluctant to laugh on weekdays, had a sad look on his face after Yao Yuanzhi fell ill, and Mrs. Wang frowned.

Hearing that the two Yao Fengge sisters were back, Mrs. Wang seemed to suddenly grab the life-saving grass, and hurriedly ordered: "Go and pick them two in!" ”

Ning was busy taking the maids and daughters-in-law out to greet them, and before they reached the second gate, they saw the two sisters coming side by side, Ning stepped forward and grabbed the hands of the two sisters, and shed tears before the words came out.

"Second sister-in-law, how is the old lady?" Yao Fengge asked first.

Ning sighed, took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, and said, "It's not good." Moreover, the old man has been sick for a few days, and the wife is so worried that she can't eat, so she finally looks forward to the return of the two sisters. ”

"What's wrong with my father?" Yao Fengge became more and more anxious.

"It's not for the old lady's illness." Ning sighed.

"Let's go and see." Yao Yanyu was also very anxious.

"The old man is now also recuperating in the old lady's yard, and it is also convenient for the imperial doctor to take care of it, the two younger sisters, please come with me." Ning said, and took Yao Fengge and Yao Yanyu to the courtyard where Old Madam Song was recuperating.

The Yao sisters went to see the old lady first, and after Yao Yanyu checked the old lady's pulse, she sighed helplessly and did not speak.

Mrs. Wang sighed softly and asked, "How?" ”

"Which doctor is giving the old lady medicine? I'll talk to them later. ”

"It's Doctor Hua and Doctor Zhang." Ning said.

"The medical Tao of the two of them is naturally good, but the old lady is old, and this disease is a little troublesome." Yao Yanyu said, glanced at the old man lying on the bed who didn't know what to do, shook his head, and said, "I'll go see my father and see the two imperial doctors again." ”

Yao Yuanzhi's condition is much lighter than that of Mrs. Song, he is caused by overwork and anxiety, Yao Yanyu used Taiyi Divine Needle to condition him with a stick of incense, and he is much better, and he has spirit. I was able to lean on the couch and say a few words to Yao Yanyu.

"How's the old lady?" After Yao Yuanzhi sobered up, the first thing he cared about was still the condition of his old mother.

In the face of her father's inquiry, Yao Yanyu replied truthfully: "The old lady's symptoms are complicated, and my daughter needs to discuss with Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Hua to reach a conclusion." ”

"Then let's discuss it quickly, the old lady's illness is the most important!" Yao Yuanzhi said and let out a long sigh.

"Yes, my daughter knows." Yao Yanyu agreed, and persuaded Yao Yuanzhi: "Father should also take care of his health, everyone in the family can't do without his father's protection." ”

Yao Yuanzhi nodded slowly and did not speak.

Yao Yanyu took out a pill from the purse on his waist and served Yao Yuanzhi with warm water before withdrawing and came to Hua Xixuan and others to discuss the condition of Old Madam Song.

Regarding Mrs. Song's condition, Dr. Zhang of the Tai Hospital concluded that she had suffered a stroke hemiplegia, and the situation was quite serious, and it was a miracle that she was able to keep this breath until now.

Hua Xixuan basically agreed with this diagnosis, and he also felt that unless it was a fairy manifestation, Mrs. Song's current pulse would definitely not survive this month.

Yao Yanyu also knew in her heart, she had just checked the old lady's pulse, and knew that the old lady had bruises in her skull and chest, and the situation was quite serious, even the Taiyi Divine Needle might not be able to save her. However, she had to do her best to keep the old lady alive until the end of the year.

Because according to the cabinet system, the first assistant to the cabinet has to go through a vote every three years. Yao Yuanzhi has been re-elected for six years, and in the next three years, even if he wants to return to his hometown to guard the system, he must select the next person who is the first assistant.

According to the normal order, after Yao Yuanzhi stepped down from the position of first assistant, the emperor's grandfather, second assistant Zhen Molin and Zhen Ge, succeeded him as first assistant. But Zhen Ge is old and heavy, and the position of the first assistant is very responsible, and he is no longer competent.

Among the remaining elders, An Yihou Zhou Taiyu is a good man, and the university scholar Feng Shaoping and Taifu Lu Changbai are equally capable, and they are the best candidates for the next first assistant.

If Feng Shaoping is the first assistant, it will naturally be no problem, but if Lu Changbai is allowed to take the position, the Yao family and the Dinghou Mansion will definitely not have a good time. Therefore, Yao Yuanzhi needs to push Feng Shaoping to the position of first assistant in the last winter, and then rest assured that Ding is worried.

Yao Yanyu has long understood this, and she has already made up her mind to do her best to buy time for her father and the entire Yao family.

That night, Yao Yanyu stayed in Yao's mansion, and called Cuiwei and Cuiping over, and tried her best to prepare for an operation for Mrs. Song.
