Chapter 300: The New Upstart and the Old Man
An Guogong didn't expect that Feng Ping actually picked a good house, but it was still behind the Yan Mansion. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
He smiled, "Although Elm Street is good, it is the old place in the capital, and the eucalyptus alley is the place where the new upstarts in the capital gather." β
But this is a point.
Feng Ping looked at Li Jiye.
The Anguo Mansion has always been relatively low-key among the princes and magnates in the capital. Before Li Jiye inherited the position of An Guogong, he studied hard, and after inheriting the position of An Guogong, if it was not necessary, he would never talk much.
It's just that since the royal family designated Li Jinniang as the crown princess, An Guogong's father and son have been active in the capital a lot.
There are many official eunuchs in Beijing, and there are many door-to-door visits.
This An Guogong has been in the limelight too much recently, and he has lost his previous caution and low-key.
"An Guogong pointed out that it was just that Feng was nostalgic for the past, and he had lived in Yan Mansion at the beginning, but he was used to that place. It is said that Yanfu is just a place to live, but when I think about it, it is like home. β
Li Jiye saw that Feng Ping understood what he meant, but he was uncompromising, and he was a little unhappy in his heart.
Feng Ping was introduced to the crown prince Chu Zhaoheng by the Yan family, and now he is reused. He originally wanted to win over Feng Ping, everyone work together, and in the future, the crown prince will ascend the throne, and the Li family will be the queen's mother's maiden family, and the first family of relatives. If this seal is in the court, everyone can also benefit each other.
Unexpectedly, Feng Ping didn't know each other and flatly refused.
The two didn't say anything all the way to the East Palace.
Chu Zhaoheng was busy discussing government affairs with Taifu and others, and heard that Mr. Feng had returned, and said that An Guogong had come to visit.
After all, he is the future father-in-law, and he agreed to marry Li Jinniang in order to let people know that he values heroes. Naturally, Li Jiye has to be given enough face.
Young Fu Pan Su snorted when he heard An Guogong Li Jiye coming, but did not speak.
Taifu Zheng Siqi said bluntly, "Your Highness, Duke An Guo has been to the East Palace too much recently, but he has not achieved much. β
Chu Zhaoheng said warmly, "What Taifu said is that I will come back when I go to see him." β
Chu Zhaoheng talked with Li Jiye for a while, and saw that Li Jiye had nothing important, so he asked him to go back to the house first.
Chu Zhaoheng had already gone to Yan's Mansion two days ago and said goodbye to Yan Mingde's father and son.
Today, so as not to be too dazzling, he did not personally go to the suburbs to see him off.
After Li Jiye left, he simply called Feng Ping and asked about today's send-off, knowing that Yan Mingde had arranged his home properly, but he was relieved.
Feng Ping finally said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, when I came back just now, An Guogong wanted to send a set of mansions to his subordinates, but on the side of Eucalyptus Hutong, my subordinates refused. The subordinates have already bought a small house on Elm Street, and if they get married in the future, they plan to live in that house. The subordinate's fiancΓ©e is Mrs. Qin's niece, and she lives close, so she can take care of her. β
After hearing this, Chu Zhaoheng nodded, "Okay, your mansion should be arranged earlier." β
"His Royal Highness the Prince, An Guogong said, where the upstarts in Eucalyptus Hutong gather."
When these words came out, Chu Zhaoheng's face sank, and he took a few steps in the room, "Li Jiye has been a little forgetful recently. β
After Li Jiye left the East Palace and returned home, he was also a little worried. On the way, he met a few Hanlin and invited him to drink with him.
He was a little drunk, and when he thought of today's events, he was even more depressed, and came to the backyard with a calm face.
Duchess An Guo is doing needlework there with Li Jinniang.
Marrying into the royal family, the wedding dress does not need to be prepared anymore, the crown princess's dress is customized, and the Department of Internal Affairs has already sent someone to measure the size. Quilt covers and other things in new houses are also customized.
However, some intimate clothes, purses and other things are to be done, to be a royal daughter-in-law, but also pay attention to ingenuity, virtuous and capable.
After Li Jinniang's wedding date was set, she didn't go out much anymore, and discussed with her mother and sister-in-law at home what needlework to prepare, especially the ceremony of the bride's first day to meet the saint and the queen's mother, Li Jinniang was ready to prepare it herself.
The mother and daughter were a little strange when they saw An Guogong walking into the courtyard with a gloomy face.
Duchess An Guo waved her hand, asked the people waiting in the courtyard to step back, and personally served a cup of tea for An Guogong, "Master, what's wrong?" Didn't you say in the morning that you were going out to see General Yan off? Didn't you see you off, what happened? β
After Li Jinniang decided to marry Chu Zhaoheng, she was already secretly interested in Chu Zhaoheng, but now she is a legitimate husband and wife, and she is a little careful about things related to the prince.
And the Yan family is the queen's maiden family, and the prince has a good relationship with the Yan family, so she pays more attention to it.
When Li Jinniang heard her mother ask if the send-off was not smooth, she couldn't help but stop the needle and thread in her hand and wanted to hear it.
An Guogong shook his head, "It has nothing to do with seeing you off." It's the thing that is flat and doesn't know how to lift. β
"Feng Ping? Is it the person who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince relies on to seal the family? Duchess An Guo thought for a while, and remembered that Feng Ping was not the only person in the Feng family who survived.
An Guogong nodded, "I intended to give him the house in Eucalyptus Hutong, but I didn't expect that he didn't know how to lift it, so he actually bought the house on Elm Street by himself." β
"Master, people don't accept heavy gifts, why should you be angry?"
"A woman's opinion!" An Guogong sighed, turned his head and taught Li Jinniang earnestly, "Jinniang, if you marry in the East Palace in the future, you must remember that if An Guogong's mansion is good, your status will be stable." Look at the queen, if she hadn't been born in the Yan family, whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would have been able to sit firmly in the position of the prince is really two words. The concubine and her mother's family are dependent on each other. β
Li Jinniang nodded, these words, An Guogong has to mention them every few days, and she will memorize them, "Father, daughter remember." β
"It's also the luck of our Li family, hey, otherwise the position of the crown princess will fall into the hands of the Yan family again." An Guogong remembered the night of the palace change, and he was very proud.
Li Jinniang didn't like to listen to this, so she couldn't help but persuade, "Father, didn't you also say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be careful now, don't say these words." β
"It's not like it's talking at home." An Guogong burped.
Duchess An Guo saw that he was a little drunk, so she hurriedly ordered someone to cook sobering soup, and helped An Guogong to lie down in the inner room to rest, and asked the little maid to stay by the bed and fan.
When she settled down and returned to the front, she saw Li Jinniang staring at the flower bandage in her hand in a daze, and coughed lightly.
Li Jinniang came back to her senses and called "mother" softly.
Duchess An Guo walked to her daughter and sat down, caressing her daughter's shoulder, knowing that her daughter was good at everything, but she was very affectionate to His Royal Highness the Prince, and Duke An Guo's sentence that the position of the crown princess fell into the hands of the Yan family again, which pierced her heart.
She couldn't help persuading, "Jin Niang, you can marry into the royal family as the crown princess, it is really a blessing from the ancestors of heaven, a great blessing." It's just that in the end, His Royal Highness the Prince, in the future, if it goes well, the three palaces and six courts will always be indispensable. There's still Liangdi coming in this year, so you have to get a good idea. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, my mother looks like a generous one. As long as you do your duty, the amount will not be disadvantaged to you. (To be continued.) )
