232 Before marriage
“……”
Wang Shiqiang had nothing to say, and knew that she was going back to the capital, so he didn't worry about finding an opportunity to discuss, so he was ready to leave.
Before going out, he still turned around and said.
"According to the old practice of the imperial court, even if it is only an engagement, it is also a family member."
There is no need to be Mrs. Lou as a parent, she can go back to the capital directly and Lou Yun sent her family back.
Seeing him go out of the cabin, Lao Siniang hurriedly stepped forward.
Now hearing the hint in Wang Shiqiang's words, the woman put the burden on the table, couldn't help but persuade, and said:
"Big lady, why don't you wait for Lord Lou's war to end and then get married?"
The eldest lady herself is worried, but she is afraid that there is only a two or three points of chance of winning this war.
After all, Lou Yun is the envoy of the unified army, in case there is an accident, he will not mention it.
Just because of the defeat and demotion of officials, it would be too much for the Ji family and Lou Yun to get married.
"Wang Shiqiang's temperament, I know, if I am not sure about the war this time, he will not ask me to put the workshop on it."
Ji Qingchen was surprised, frowning and thinking, sighing,
"But a while ago, I was facing Lou Yun day by day, and his face always showed some uneasiness. That's why I don't think I'm sure. ”
She is not used to calling Lou Yun's words, and calling Lou Lord is too angry.
Now she still calls by name and surname.
Lou Yun naturally didn't care.
"Big lady, Lord Lou was in Shanyang a few days ago, he looked uneasy, he was worried that you were going to Jinguo, right?"
Lao Siniang shook her head.
Ji Qingchen couldn't be sure, she thought about the news she got unexpectedly when she was walking with Shu Luyuan two months ago, and said:
"The Great Fire of Kinkakuji Temple. Yu should be able to find an excuse to go back to Huaiyin. If she hadn't seen the secret letter between Shu Luyuan and Wang Shiqiang, she quietly mentioned it to me. I didn't know that Wang Shiqiang's craftsmen had already taken orders from the Ordnance Department of the Ministry of Industry. In making ordnance for the imperial court. Since he can earn it himself, of course I don't have a reason to give it in vain. ”
Speaking of which. She smiled wryly again,
"San Lang is indispensable to help Lou Yun in the war. I'll look at the situation and then discuss the workshop with the capital. ”
Lao Siniang also knew that Ji Chenhu was eager for such an opportunity, and said with a smile:
"Big lady, it's the Khitan people surnamed Shulu who dare to make any money. Even the horses and ordnance of the Jin Kingdom dared to sell privately to the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"I heard that his backer in the capital is surnamed Wanyan."
She said casually, and did not mention it more, but only commanded,
"Go back to Shanyang and spread the fake news that we are partnering with the Yu family to do a few businesses. It will be easy for her to get her home property when she comes back. Thank you for the news she sent me. ”
The night passed, and Ji Qingchen was on the dock. I saw that the ship building was neat and the flag was fluttering.
Lou Yun was dressed in regular clothes, and his demeanor took her to the shore leisurely.
But behind him, the dense sailor boats on the surface of the Huai River were too conspicuous.
At this time, she knew that the attack was imminent.
When he picked up people at the dock of this county, he was still preparing the sailor.
However, the moment she and Lou Yun made eye contact, the joy of each other made them unable to think of these for the time being.
"After arriving in Shanyang, I also asked Lord Wang to move to the military yamen, and the official still has a military situation to discuss."
After he and Wang Shiqiang politely thanked him. directly picked up Ji Qingchen on his own boat.
Ji Chenhu was also on board.
"Sister. Erlang's kid didn't know what news was spreading, and he didn't even know that there was a fire in the temple. ”
At this time, he was heavily armoured, with a knife on his waist, and he was wearing a six-petal iron helmet trained by the sailor regiment. Only two Bright Tiger Eyes were revealed.
"Shuqing has been asking you, you go back quickly, tell her not to worry."
Ji Chenhu did not return to Shanyang. After meeting her, he went to the ship under his mark.
His military position is now a real lack of officials. Huaihe Water Division group training.
“…… Be careful. ”
She was silent in the cabin, and Lou Yun hurriedly comforted her. Ji Chenhu was only responsible for the escort of grain and grass this time.
"He would like to go to the front army, but you said that he is easily irritable in the army. So I asked him to take the sea route to transport grain to Li Quan. Apart from him, there is no one in our army who has experience in sea. ”
She felt it was a good fit.
A round trip by sea for eight months, in addition to the risk at sea, is equivalent to not letting Saburo go to the battlefield.
Lou Yun speculated that she should know about another more convenient shipping line, so she bought the land in Taicang.
But this shipping route was not in his plan, and the risk of the new route was always not small, so he didn't ask her.
"Do you want to go back to the capital to hold a Buddhist meeting?"
Lou Yun sat in the cabin with her and asked softly.
She was a little sorry for missing the appointment, but seeing that he didn't look angry, she naturally nodded.
According to the original plan, she was going to the Golden Pavilion Temple to enshrine the relics of Master Kongming, and then return to the West Lake Lingyin Temple to hold a Buddhist meeting.
In order to gradually wash away the impression of the Ji family among the eunuchs in the capital.
Especially after she quit her family.
"Then in two days, you should go back to the capital."
Lou Yun was obviously relieved by her plan, so he didn't care about what worried him so much about her failure to leave.
"There are not many Qingliu in the city who oppose the Northern Expedition, Chen Wenchang is in the capital, in case something happens to my side, whether it is victory or defeat, you have a room to turn around."
She stared at him.
What he said was not wrong, and she had intended it that way.
However, things shouldn't be that simple.
"If he wins, Lord Lou will have to compete with Han for military merit. If defeated, the phase of Dahan is not guaranteed, and even if Lord Lou comes back safely, he will inevitably be degraded. ”
Ji Chenlong, who was far away in Suzhou, was so aware of the current situation.
He also laughed at himself, saying:
"But I'm in Suzhou, so Sister doesn't need to worry at all. If you win, you will be a high-ranking official, and if you lose, you will be promoted and make a fortune. ”
He sighed,
"Who made me Li Zhaorong's brother?"
When she got off the boat, she had already delivered the secret letter that Ji Chenlong asked her to bring to Lou Yun.
Although she didn't read the letter, she could deduce from Ji Chenlong's words that Jin Guo was aware of the preparations for the Great Song Dynasty.
Wang Shiqiang went to Jin Guo to celebrate his birthday as usual, naturally to cover up.
"The city is not restless, I will ask Guan Suo and them to send you back to Chengdong Jifu first."
"I'll go see Shuqing, and then I'll go to the Nagarjuna Essence House in Qinglong Temple to stay temporarily."
Lou Yun was immediately overjoyed and said:
"Well, it's close to my yamen. I'll go see you when I have time in the next few days. ”
After Lou Yun and Wang Shiqiang got off the ship, they were going to discuss business in the military yamen.
Ji Fu already had a car to pick him up.
Jun Mo is Lou Yun's scholar and can't leave, Guan Suo and others also have military positions in the war, so he asked Xiao Guanhe to send her back to Ji Mansion in the car.
When Ji Qingchen just got in the car, Lou Yun suddenly and silently half-opened the curtain of the car and looked at her.
Seeing his strange smile without saying a word, she knew what he was going to ask, and couldn't help but cover her lips and laugh quietly:
"I only got on the boat in the early hours of the morning. I talked to Wang Shiqiang on the boat for five or six sentences. For the sake of the workshop. (To be continued......)
