Chapter 36: It's hard to say goodbye when you meet

Of course, Yu Fujin is extremely happy, because what she looks forward to day and night is that after the little prince's wedding, she can add Ding Jiafu to King Shen's mansion as soon as possible.

After all, at this time, the little prince has passed the age of the weak crown, and if it is someone else, the child can run at this age.

But the little prince is different, because Xue Rong, who has been engaged since childhood, is seven years younger than him, so he naturally has to wait for her to grow up before he can marry him.

Although at that time, a woman could marry at the age of fourteen, because Xuerong's family had been far away in Xinjiang before, Yu Fujin naturally did not dare to propose a family affair early, because he was afraid that Shen Ruomei would be reluctant to marry her daughter at such a young age.

Now that their family has returned to Beijing, the situation is very different, and this big wedding naturally has to be prepared.

"Ahem...... Xue Rong coughed dryly twice, and these two mothers talked about her marriage in front of her, which made her extremely embarrassed, her face turned red, and she said twice: "Fujin Niangniang, Xue Rong wants to go out of the courtyard and take a look at the flowers." ”

"Okay, let's go! The magnolia flowers in the garden are in full bloom! Ask Yu'er to take you. Yu Fujin instructed the maids beside him, and suddenly remembered what happened to Xue Rong in the palace when he was young, so he continued: "There is no change in this mansion, Rong'er can go wherever she wants!" Because, this is also Rong'er's home! ”

Xue Rong's face turned even redder, and she bowed and retreated, and stopped Yufujin's personal maid Yu'er from following, and walked alone to the back garden.

Young, although he has only lived in the palace for a month, he often goes in and out of the palace with A-Niang, and Xuerong is quite familiar with this place.

In addition, as Yu Fujin said, there was no change at all in the palace, and Xue Rong easily found a place where he used to play when he was a child.

On the southeast side of the back garden, under the magnolia trees. Looking at the white and moist white magnolia flowers, Xue Rong was slightly stunned, as if she had returned to the happy time in the palace when she was a child......

In the palace.

In the imperial study, Mianfeng stood quietly.

"King Mujun, have you heard about the recent incident in Yangzhou Mansion?" Emperor Jiaqing looked at Mianfeng and said warmly.

"Back to the emperor, the minister has heard a little." Mianfeng did only hear some news in the past two days, so he replied truthfully.

You said that the "Yelang" thief can really fly away, and overnight, he stole the treasure troves of the top three local rich families, and after the official mission tracked them for a month, he didn't even find the shadow of the criminal, what is the use of me. Emperor Jiaqing's tone changed, his tone became stern, and he scolded angrily.

"The emperor is angry and takes care of his body." Father-in-law Su on the side hurriedly handed the emperor a cup of hot tea.

Emperor Jiaqing took it, took a sip of tea, and said to Mianfeng: "If this matter drags on any longer, where is my national law?" King Mujun, you go, set off immediately, and within a month, the perpetrators will be arrested and brought to justice, and the law of the country will be corrected. ”

"Commandment." Mianfeng shook his sleeves and saluted, and with a loud answer, it could be regarded as a military standing in front of the emperor.

After hurriedly leaving the palace, Mianfeng did not rush back to the palace, but turned his horse's head and went straight to the south of the city.

Younan, who followed, reminded him: "Master, when you go back to the house now, you still have time to meet Miss Wen, and you won't delay the time in Yangzhou?" ”

"No, go to Xiao Yan first, he is familiar with the situation in Yangzhou and knows him very well, it will be helpful to discuss the case with him."

When Mianfeng found Xiao Yan, had a long talk with him, and then dealt with all the preparations in Yangzhou, and then hurried back to the mansion in a hurry, it was already dark.

He didn't know that at this moment, Xue Rong's car had just left.

Mianfeng and Xuerong missed it again perfectly, the first meeting after growing up.

As soon as he returned to the gate of the mansion, he jumped off his horse, took a deep breath, and tidied up his clothes before walking steadily towards the main hall.

Yu Fujin saw his son from a distance, and said with disgust and regret: "Feng'er, why did you come back?" Xuerong and their mother and daughter stayed in the palace for a day, and they waited for you for a day, and they just said goodbye and went back to the palace.

"Oh, it's okay, E-niang! See you next time. Mianfeng was unfazed on the surface, but in fact he was disappointed in his heart.

After a pause, he said, "E-niang, my son has received a holy order, and he will go to Yangzhou immediately to deal with some official business, and he will come back in about a month." ”

"Ahh I'll go now, and it will take a month to come back, so what about Xue Rong, you haven't seen each other yet? Yu Fujin shouted silently.

"E-Niang, don't worry, when my son comes back from Yangzhou, I will visit Wenfu again." Mianfeng comforted Eniang.

"Alas, a month is too long. However, it can only be like this, as soon as Feng'er comes back, E-Niang will go to discuss with her sister and handle your marriage as soon as possible, and when Xuerong enters the door, you will go and be busy with you, just have a daughter-in-law to accompany your mother. ”

Looking at the worried look on Yu Fujin's face, Mianfeng couldn't help but smile and said: "E-niang, don't worry, it's just that in just one month, Rong'er has already returned to Beijing, and she can't fly away." ”

Yu Fujin clasped his hands together, and actually closed his eyes and said: "Amitabha, Buddha blesses, Feng'er and Rong'er can get married as soon as possible, and ...... safely."

Mianfeng respectfully gave a big salute to Eniang, "Eniang, take care, Feng'er is gone." ”

As soon as he left the hall door, Youdong, Younan, and Youbei were waiting for him in full armor.

Youdong put on a cloak for the prince and whispered: "Master, there are many ladies in the hall today, and the subordinates only glanced at it from a distance, and they didn't see Miss Wen, only Mrs. Wen." ”

Mu Qing didn't say a word, after the four of them got on the horse, they should have gone towards the city gate, but somehow, Mu Qing turned the horse's head and galloped away in the opposite direction.

The three of Youdong looked at each other and smiled, it seemed that the prince still couldn't rest assured that Miss Wen was still in his heart, and he still wanted to see her before leaving.

Because, the direction in which he rode his horse was the direction of the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion.

It was only a cup of tea, and he arrived at the gate of the Admiral's Mansion.

Far away, Mu Qing stopped, looked at the mansion gate for a long time, and did not take any further action.

"Master, go and report to your subordinates!" Youdong behind him couldn't stand it anymore, stared at the former tightly, and just waited for him to nod his head, and then went by himself.

However, Mu Qing still silently did not say a word.

Youdong didn't dare to make his own decisions, but he was anxious, and instigated: "Master, let's go in and have a cup of tea, and then say goodbye to Miss Wen, it won't take much time, okay?" ”

"No, let's go!" As he spoke, Mu Qing had already turned his horse's head and ran towards the city gate.

The three of them looked at each other again, feeling sorry for the master, he obviously wanted to see Miss Wen in his heart, but why didn't he go in?

Mu Qing's thoughts, the three of them naturally didn't understand.

Mu Qing was more thoughtful.

One: he doesn't want to go in, and he leaves in a hurry, which will mean to despise the other party.

Second: If you go in to say goodbye and say that you are going on a business trip, then Miss Wen will naturally be worried. But he didn't want her to worry about her own affairs.

So, after thinking about it, I still didn't go in to say goodbye, I just thought that after a month, I would come back and accompany her well.

However, the world is really impermanent, and Mianfeng never thought that at the moment when he turned the horse's head, he would say goodbye at this time! It will be another year.

Inside the Admiralty's Palace.

After Wen Xuerong came back from the palace, she lay on the bed alone, thinking about her thoughts sullenly.

She really didn't expect that just after she came back, her marriage with the little prince would be put on the agenda. She was very scared, if the two families agreed together, I was afraid that in the spring of next year, she would marry into the Shenwang Mansion.

Wen Xuerong, who is accustomed to being free and easy, has just returned to Beijing, and she is not used to everything, so she doesn't know what to do?

Unexpectedly, what is even more serious is that half a year later, he will soon marry into the palace with strict rules.

Her marriage contract with the little prince was made since childhood, she knew this in her heart, and she knew that she would eventually marry him.

However, under the premise that she was not psychologically prepared at all, she was going to get married, and Xue Rong was really a little flustered in her heart.

Also, one or two gossips she heard in the palace today made her even more sad.

……

This afternoon, the back garden of the palace.

Xue Rong looked at the flowers and plants for half an hour, bored, and didn't want to go back to the hall to listen to Ah Niang and their discussion of their marriage.

So, I walked towards the water pavilion, and as soon as I arrived at the corridor, there were faint voices from inside.

"Mama Yan, be careful, wait for the slave to come and get it! At your age, it's time to go back to retirement. The voice of the young maid said, as if she was helping Mama Yan get something.

"Yes, it's almost time, just wait for our little prince's wedding, and after Zhang Luo finishes this major event, it's time for the old body to retire." Mama Yan replied loudly with a smile.

The young voice followed and said, "When the time comes, I'm afraid you won't be able to retreat." Didn't I hear that Fujin Niangniang had long been optimistic about the young ladies of the Zhang and Wang families? After Fujin enters the door, do you still have to help Zhang Luo with the affairs of Fujin on the side of these two rooms? ”

……

The conversation overheard in the palace was what made Wen Xuerong panic and anxious the most.

God, I haven't passed the door yet, and I have even found the side Fujin over there, and it is still two rooms.

Although he knew that the little prince was going to marry Fang Fujin in the end, when it came to the end, Xue Rong couldn't accept it.

Especially when he had planned this matter before he even married into the palace.

What to do? What to do?

Crying with my father and mother, regretting marriage! And the reason for regretting the marriage turned out to be that he knew that the little prince was going to marry Fang Fujin.

Before entering the door, I cried and made a fuss because my husband's family wanted to marry Fang Fujin, and I regretted my marriage because of this, where to start! How can you open your mouth?

If it spreads, the little prince's Fujin turned out to be a jealous person, then wouldn't he become a joke in the whole capital, and the Admiral's Mansion and the Royal Mansion would become people's after-dinner conversations.

In addition, with Wen Xuerong's character, he will never cry, make trouble, and hang himself.

Therefore, there is no way, I don't want to get married, and I have to be logical and not be discovered.

Perhaps, dragging on, this marriage will gradually fade and yellow......

Thinking of this, he quickly opened the door, bit his lip and shouted, "Hua'er, come in." ”

"Yes, Miss!" After listening to Yahuan's crisp answer from outside the door, Wen Xuerong's face regained some smiles.

"Hua'er, I'm not sleepy at all, why don't we go out for a walk and look at the moonlight."

"Miss, no, it's late at night, so you'd better rest early, right?" Hua'er immediately refused.

"Hua'er, I'm tired of eating, I can't sleep, so I'll go out for a short walk."

Hearing the young lady shouting like this, the latter said in a low voice: "Alas, the slave will accompany the young lady to go out for a walk and consume food." ”

So, under the moonlight, the two walked and walked to the lotus pond.

So, as Xue Rong walked, his feet slipped and he accidentally fell into the lotus pond......
