Chapter 72: Why Should I Go?

Su Qing's worried face also turned cold: "She just wants her daughter to attend Mrs. Fu's birthday banquet instead of me, by the way, Miss Yun, do you have a gift for the birthday banquet?" ”

Yun Ting was puzzled: "Why should I prepare?" ”

At this time, Su was lightly surprised: "Aren't you going to attend Mrs. Fu's birthday banquet?" ”

"Why should I go?"

Su Qingwu saw that she really didn't know, and hurriedly explained: "Old Madam Fu is the sister of the current Queen Mother, Mrs. Yipin, and her husband is the God of War General of the Great Yan Kingdom.

They are deeply affectionate, the husband and wife fight on the battlefield together, invincible, invincible, invincible, feared and feared by the four countries, as long as they fight, they have never lost.

But in a later battle, the god of war general unfortunately died, sacrificed his life for the country at a young age, and Mrs. Fu was widowed alone for many years, and after her husband died, she never remarried, let alone have no heirs.

Therefore, every year, the old lady's birthday banquet is personally organized by the queen mother, one is to show respect and respect for the old lady, and the other is to make the old lady lively.

On the day of the birthday banquet, the emperor and the queen mother will attend, and the famous families of the entire capital will participate, and many unmarried men and women will also participate.

With such a good opportunity, everyone naturally wants to perform well, if it is favored by a prince or a powerful family, wouldn't it be a success.

Su Xinrou is a concubine, and she is not qualified to participate in such a birthday banquet at all, so Su Liu is so enthusiastic, not for her daughter's future. ”

Yun Ting was surprised when she heard this: "If you don't say it, I really don't know that this old lady is so powerful, she is really a model for women." ”

"That's natural, how many women in the capital and even in the four countries regard Mrs. Fu as the object of worship, and they are full of praise when they mention her, and that was also a generation of heroines back then.

In fact, I also admire her, and I want to marry a man I love deeply like her, and I don't know if I have that luck. Su sighed lightly.

"Yes, fate is a wonderful thing, it's good that you can think like this." Yun Ting admired.

Generally, a woman's marriage is the words of the matchmaker at the behest of her parents, and the people she marries generally don't know each other, or have never met.

Hearing Su Qingwu's words, Yun Ting agreed very much.

"Lend you good words." Su Qingwu said gratefully, since she met Yun Ting, it seems that she has been lucky.

"Now that you know their minds and calculations, can you still let them succeed?" Yun Ting asked.

"Naturally not, let them be proud for a few days, I use the detoxification mask you gave me every day, except for my maid, no one knows how my face is good, and on the day of the birthday banquet of the old lady, I suddenly stood in front of them and said that the face is good, they must not be angry to death, the so-called greater hope, the greater the disappointment, when the time comes, my father will definitely let me go, after all, I am the concubine." Su Qingwu said word by word.

Yun Ting looked at her: "Count you ruthless." ”

"I'm just a tooth for a tooth, they are uneasy and kind to me, why should I be polite to them, thank you, you made me understand that people are good and are bullied." Su said gratefully.

"Yes, I like your character." Yun Ting helped her apply the ointment, and inadvertently glanced at the jerky on the table: "What is this?" ”

"This is beef jerky, isn't my father in charge of the area of the Northern Wilderness, this year the county guard over there sent some jerky, if you like to eat I'll bring you some, there are a lot of them." Su said lightly.

Yun Ting was also polite, picked up a slice and took a bite: "Oops, this tastes good." ”

Su Qingwu immediately called Lu'er in and asked her to pack up all the jerky that she sent over yesterday, she was originally worried about how to thank Yun Ting, after all, she is the wife of the prince, she is extremely favored, and there is no shortage of food, drink and clothing.

It's rare that Yun Ting has something she likes to eat, and she just happens to have it, so Su Qingwu is not stingy.

"You don't need so much, just give me a taste of everything, and give me what do you eat?" Yun Ting said.

"I usually fight tooth sacrifices, I'm tired of eating, it's rare that you like to eat, this jerky will be sent every once in a while, next time I'll send you some over there, it's all dried by local black beef, and it tastes very good."

"So, there are a lot of them in the Northern Wilderness?" Yun Ting looked over.

"Yes, there are nomadic people, the people are living on cattle and sheep, everyone is grazing for a living, now it is May The grassland over there is okay, but in winter, the northern wilderness is uninhabited, extremely cold land, cattle and sheep have nothing to eat, many starve to death, and the people can only eat the dead cattle and sheep." Su Qingwu said with emotion.

"Then your dad didn't care?"

"My father thinks, but the huge Northern Wilderness is that the imperial court can't do it, every year the imperial court sends food and clothing or something, but there are many people, and there are not many people who get it." Su sighed lightly.

"What about the traffic in the Northern Wilderness, is it convenient to come to the capital?" Yun Ting said curiously.

"It's not very convenient, it's too barren over there, there are a lot of mountains and deserts, there are a few waterways, but if there is a drought in the summer, the waterways are not passable. When it came to winter, there was a heavy snow in the mountains, and my father said that the people over there were buried in the snow as soon as they went out, and it was even more difficult to walk an inch. ”

Yun Ting couldn't help pouting: "That's miserable enough, you're telling me about the situation over there." ”

Su Qingwu told everything she knew, and Yun Ting left her a few more things before leaving, and then went back.

On the carriage, Yun Ting didn't speak, and her face was extremely serious.

Ryuuji looked over worriedly: "Madam, what's wrong with you?" ”

On weekdays, my wife has to buy food and drink on the way back, why is it so quiet today.

"Ryuuji, have you ever been to the Northern Wilderness?"

"Of course, the Northern Wilderness is a place where birds don't, deserted, inconvenient, dry climate, and there is no flat land, the mountains stretch, that is, there are a few prairies." Ryuuji replied.

"How do the people over there live?" Yue'er asked puzzled.

"There are cattle and sheep grazing over there, and where there is grassland, they will drive cattle and sheep there, and after eating that piece, they will go to other places, in short, there is no fixed place for people over there."

Yue'er frowned when she heard this: "That's too miserable." ”

"It's quite miserable, madam, why did you suddenly remember to ask the Northern Wilderness?" Ryuji asked

"Just ask." Yun Ting replied.

The group returned to the Shizi Mansion, but Jun Yuanyou was not in the Shizi Mansion, but was summoned by the emperor to the palace.

If Jun Yuanyou had not been summoned by the emperor on weekdays, he would never take the initiative to enter the palace, and the emperor was looking for him at this time, was there something wrong?

Before Yun Ting could figure it out, she saw the housekeeper coming over: "Madam, you can be regarded as coming back, Luo Lao, he is looking for you." ”
