Chapter 464: Preparations Before the Expedition
"What do you want to prepare? Ask me, I really don't know! Yan Yun is also in a dilemma, and her mood is more complicated than Fan Anyang, her father and her newlywed husband who are finally reunited are going, her father is old, even if there is a son-in-law and apprentice to follow, she still doesn't feel at ease!
But this is the emperor's meaning, there is no room for turnaround, so she wants to find something to do, and she doesn't want Fan Anyang to come here, but Fan Anyang's question, she is also in trouble!
The maids waiting next to each other looked at each other and smiled, and said in their hearts, how funny! These two, any person in our house can help them solve their doubts, the Yao family has been born in the army for generations, and those who serve in the Yao family are even born in the family, and most of the relatives in the family are soldiers, which family will not prepare this kind of thing?
Yao Du commanded the envoy to Yan Chi's cousin very respectfully, and regarded Yan Yun as his own sister-in-law, although the sister was married, but Zhao Chu had no closer relatives except for the Yan family's father and daughter, and he was on an errand under the Yao Du command envoy, so since entering Beijing, Yan Chi's father and daughter and son-in-law have been living in Yao's house.
Although Yao Du commanded the envoy to wait in the concubine room in Beijing, but when a guest came to the door, let a concubine come out to entertain the guest, it is really unreasonable, if he is in office, maybe no one will pick a thorn, but in Beijing, I am afraid that some people will think that the Yao family does not value the guests enough, so let an aunt come forward to entertain guests, so Yan Yun has been in charge of the Yao family on behalf of Yao Du in the past few months.
While she and Fan Anyang were talking, there were stewards coming and going back from time to time, and one of the housekeepers' daughter-in-law, who was very good at things, heard that the two of them were embarrassed about this matter, so she volunteered to help them prepare, and stabbed the maids who were waiting beside her lightly.
"The masters are embarrassed, and you just stand by and watch?" While talking, he glanced at them a few times, and he almost didn't say that they were watching the master's joke!
A few maids blushed, looked for something one after another, and slipped away.
The housekeeper's daughter-in-law saw that Yan Yun and Fan Anyang seemed to be nothing, so she didn't care about teaching them two novice daughters-in-law. How to pack for your husband.
Fan Anyang took out the charcoal and painting book very decisively, and then the housekeeper's daughter-in-law said a word, and she remembered a sentence. The housekeeper's daughter-in-law is very useful, and she feels that she is valued, and she speaks in great detail.
"Mrs. Zhao, our aunt and grandmother have returned home."
"Huh? Whoa? How did you get back? Yan Yun hurriedly got up to greet him, Fan Anyang thanked the housekeeper's daughter-in-law, and followed Yan Yun away.
A little maid came up. "Sister-in-law Xie. You just provoked Sister Cicada Juan, aren't you afraid that they will turn back to find trouble for you? ”
"What are you afraid of them doing?" Sister-in-law Xie snorted disdainfully, "Who doesn't know that Aunt Yan and our aunt get along well." I dare to look at her jokes, I am tired of them, if we let our aunt and grandmother know, they treat the aunt and grandmother of the Yan family like this, hum, it would be strange if they were not cleaned up. ”
The little girl reacted, yes! I heard that the princess of their family was a student of Aunt Yan's grandmother! Oh! The little girl who came to the door today. Oh, no, it's the little lady, it seems to be the apprentice of Old Man Yan!
The little maid touched her head, and she had a double bun on her head, and the little lady was about the same age as her. But he is already married! The little maid sighed softly. She had just entered the mansion to wait, but she was just a rough maid. I don't know when I can be promoted, and if I want to match someone, I have to wait until I reach the age of eighteen, what kind of person can a maid marry? Steward, little servant? That's pretty good!
Sister-in-law Xie didn't know what the little maid was thinking, but she felt that the little maid reminded her that she had to rush to the inner courtyard manager to complain, so as not to be falsely accused by the cicadas!
Fan Anyang and the others just went out, and saw Princess Cheng getting out of the carriage surrounded by palace people.
"Why do you still use this carriage that doesn't have any watches?"
"What do you want to do?" Princess Cheng smiled coquettishly, "It's still so good, no one knows that I went out to go back to my parents' house." Azhao. ”
"I've seen the princess."
"Naughty, I've told you, I don't need to be so polite." Princess Cheng was coquettish.
Fan Anyang smiled back, "Etiquette can't be wasted!" Why do you have time to go back to your parents' house today? ”
Princess Cheng smiled bitterly, "My father is going to go far away, and my cousin and uncle are also going together, how can I rest assured?" ”
Fan Anyang saw that her eyes were red, and her complexion was not very good, so she didn't sleep after she knew about it, right?
"I'm discussing with my senior sister to help them pack their luggage, and it just so happens that you're back, so you can help us with the details."
The three of them got together to discuss, and Fan Anyang also took out the notes he had just made and asked Princess Cheng one by one.
When Du Yunxun and King Cheng came to pick up their wives, they were reluctant to return home.
After getting into the carriage, Du Yun asked her about today's harvest, and Fan Anyang excitedly took out his notes, "Look, look." ”
Taking the notes, Du Yunxun felt like he was reading a wordless book, what words are written? It's hard to guess if there are few pieces missing!
Turning his head to ask, he found that his little wife had fallen asleep with a soft pillow.
Early the next morning, Fan Anyang began to look for clothes for Du Yun according to the advice given by Princess Cheng and Sister-in-law Xie, and also rushed to let people marinate meat and dry it, as well as tea, medicinal oil, pills, and so on.
The people who were going to explain the needlework room rushed to make a few more pairs of shoes for Du Yunxun, but temporarily thought that they were now in the Xishan Courtyard, and if they really wanted to hand over the needlework room to the people in the needlework room, they had to take them back to Beijing, thinking that the needlework room was still under the control of the young grandmother, Fan Anyang thought that it was better not to trouble them!
After Fan Anyang is used to explaining things, she doesn't like to go back and stare at people again and again, she is afraid that she will keep an eye on it, which will annoy people, so she is likely to leave this matter behind after handing it over to the sewing room to do.
However, the young grandmother who was in charge of the sewing room was a master of everything, and who knew if she would suddenly have a convulsion, and let the sewing room rush her clothes that she was not in a hurry to wear, and when she was about to pick up the clothes, she was told that they had not done it yet, so that was not wrong?
Think about it or forget it! She can't do it herself, can't she stare at people and do it? So, all the people in her house and those who were preparing to get married were called, and they opened the warehouse and picked out a few pieces of cloth to make outerwear, and specially picked silk cloth to cut underwear, because she vaguely remembered that silk seemed to be able to reduce the impact of weapons hitting her body, but she didn't know either, and she didn't have a mother to check these years, so she could only believe it! The thick soles can make the few maids who accept the soles red.
Fan Anyang asked Mo Xiang to prepare medicine for them, and secretly remembered in his heart that he would give someone a reward when he turned back.
After being busy like this for a few days, when Mrs. Fan came over, she was very distressed to see that her daughter's little face had lost weight, but this is the case with Shijun Yulu, the emperor has an order, let you go on that errand is to go there, and it is also a good thing that the son-in-law can go out to experience the experience.
She was already quite worried, this son-in-law didn't look like a normal civil official! Sure enough, when the new science and technology jinshi was incumbent, he didn't get a normal official position and went to Taixue to teach? A little guy who is less than twenty, not to mention that the gentlemen and professors who are too learned can't see him, even the students who are too learned can't trust him, right?
Although there is a sequence of hearing the Tao, age does not mean anything, and it is not that there are no little prodigies in these years! I was less than ten years old and had three yuan in high school, but those were all hearsay, legends, not my own juniors! The little prodigy in the story was made difficult, and it didn't sound painful, but what about the people who changed to his side were troubled?
Fortunately, the emperor is Xiang Zhuang who dances the sword with the intention of Pei Gong, and Du Yunxun is just a puen who gets Yan Chi to learn too much. With Yan Chi in front of him, Du Yunxun was much more relaxed, but he didn't expect that the Northwest Qiang was in turmoil, and the emperor wanted to send troops to quell the chaos, and Yan Chi and others would also go out with the army.
"Look at you, it's only been a few days to get you tired, really."
Fan Anyang could only smirk, Mrs. Fan held her daughter in her arms in distress, "But it's really strange that the Qiang Department would choose to raise troops in the spring!" ”
"Why do you say that?" Fan Anyang is still pretending to be stupid.
Mrs. Fan pulled her daughter to sit on the soft couch in front of the window, "Everything is flourishing in spring, and the seeds have just been sown and not yet completed, they are raising troops to rob them, what do they want to rob?" Even the livestock have lost weight after a winter, and they haven't fattened up yet! Now I come to grab it, but I'm afraid that ten times of grabbing it is not as much as one trip during the autumn harvest. ”
"That's what you said." Fan Anyang was thoughtful, but she didn't put her mind on this for too long, if her mother could see that something was wrong, I believe that the emperor and those shrewd old foxes would have seen it a long time ago!
Mrs. Fan said again: "Think about it, before this incident came out, wasn't the Huaiwang Mansion a serious troublemaker!" ”
Yes? She heard her right, right? Did her mother really mean what she thought?
"Although I'm not sure if this matter was caused by the Queen Mother and Princess Huai, but if this happened, the emperor must be dissatisfied with the Queen Mother and the Yang family, and at this time, it was rumored that the Qiang Department was in turmoil, and the Northwest Battalion was once the Fuyang Marquis family in charge of the military talisman, and the Qiang Department can be regarded as an old enemy, and the emperor wants to quell the chaos, and it is necessary to borrow Fuyang Hou."
If the emperor handed over the army of Zhengqiang to the Marquis of Fuyang, it would mean that he did not have a gap with the Queen Mother and the Yang family because of the chaos of the Huaiwang Mansion.
But what did the emperor mean when he ordered the generals of the Northwest Battalion to lead the army?
"Not that coincidental, right? The news of the Qiang rebellion came to Beijing from the northwest, and it took ten days and half a month to say the least. Fan Anyang didn't dare to suspect that this Qiang Department might be linked to the Fuyang Hou family.
"What's the coincidence, you don't have to be afraid, everyone dares to do this, you don't even feel guilty of guessing?" Mrs. Fan laughed.
Fan Anyang scratched his head, "But perhaps, the Qiang Department actually makes a little mess every spring, but the guard station and the northwest camp didn't report it!" ”
Mrs. Fan smiled and shook her head, "This kind of thing has to be reported no matter how big or small, if it is as you said, they actually go south every spring to loot, but Jingli and the military department don't know, that is someone deliberately concealed it, to put it mildly, that is, to conceal the military situation, if the emperor wants to punish people with this, it is completely reasonable." ”
Fan Anyang nodded stunnedly, "But no matter what, the Yang family chose to poke out this news at this time, probably to test the emperor's attitude!" ”
"Then Brother Fuchang and Master, will they be in danger when they go on this trip?" (To be continued)
ps: Go to the code word again, the cold is almost cured, and I feel like I want to sleep! What to do?
