The eldest princess of Fuyun lived in the Kang family. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Because this time she handed the excerpt to the emperor, and she came to Macheng Mansion in a bright light, and she did not deliberately hide her whereabouts, because as soon as she arrived in Macheng Mansion, many people knew the news and handed a letter to the Kang family.
The eldest princess of Fuyun just met with Qiao's family.
In another month, the term of office of the Qiao Governor's Mansion will expire, and with his performance during the reign of Macheng Mansion and his contribution to the management of the floods in Macheng Mansion, his reputation will definitely be excellent.
If nothing else, he is going to enter Beijing as an official.
The eldest princess of Fuyun hinted that Qiao Zhifu must show that she doesn't care about King An's affairs outside, and now the Queen Mother and the emperor in Beijing are keeping an eye on it, if they think that Qiao Zhifu is a person from King An's faction, I am afraid that Qiao Zhifu will not be allowed to stay in the capital.
Fortunately, Qi Chenjing only lived in Macheng Mansion for one year, and during this year, he did not have much contact with Qiao Zhifu, and the few contacts he had were all upright and bright, and there was nothing to criticize.
If Governor Qiao can enter Beijing as an official, it will be a good thing for Qi Chenjing.
Prefect Qiao was also obedient, understood the hint of the eldest princess Fuyun, and did not visit him again for more than a month.
It wasn't until he received an order from the ministry to let him go to Beijing to report on his work, and he came to the door again to say goodbye to the eldest princess of Fuyun.
His eldest daughter Qiao Danyun married into the family of the servant of the Ministry of Rites in the capital, and his concubine Qiao Danru married him to the family of his subordinate officials in Macheng Mansion.
They went to the capital, it is not that they have no help at all, and after the activities are good, it is very likely that they will stay in the capital to serve.
After the prefect of Qiao left, the newly arrived prefect of Macheng Mansion was surnamed Lu. Kang Yan only met when he brought his family to the door to meet the eldest princess of Fuyun.
During the time that the eldest princess Fuyun lived in Macheng Mansion, she called Kang Yan and Xiao Jiu to teach whenever she had time. Tell their sisters and brothers the principles of how to behave in the world that they have accumulated for decades and the various experiences they have experienced.
"Things in the capital are more complicated than we thought. Your sisters and brothers have lived in the folk since childhood, and they don't know the cruelty of the palace struggle, and they only let Mother Song teach you etiquette before, but if you want to stand firm in the capital and not be calculated, etiquette alone is far from enough. The eldest princess Fuyun taught the two with a solemn face.
Kang Yan was mentally prepared to face all kinds of ups and downs in the future after knowing Qi Chenjing's identity and insisting on choosing him.
It's not enough to be mentally prepared, what she lacks is all kinds of experience and training, so the experience that the eldest princess Fuyun has accumulated over the years is for her. It was a priceless treasure, and she listened very carefully, and she also pondered it seriously when she was free.
In the past two months, her eyes and temperament have changed significantly, and she has become more calm and confident when dealing with things, and her whole person exudes brilliant brilliance after being carved like a jade.
Xiao Jiu passed his thirteenth birthday in June, Qi Chenjing entered the capital, was crowned King An, and his sister became the lord of Lanxin. After these things happened, he also knew that he would definitely follow his sister to Beijing in the future.
He also knew a lot about King An's affairs and situation in the capital, and Kang Yan did not hide some things from him, but would discuss them with him. Hear what he thinks.
Xiao Jiu likes this kind of behavior of his sister finally no longer treating him as a child, and feels that he is getting older and can share it for this family.
Seeing that the eldest princess of Fuyun intends to teach herself. Xiao Jiu learned very carefully, and. His spare time is either spent reading, or seizing the time to practice martial arts. I even arranged my time to the fullest.
Seeing that the sister and brother were working very hard, the eldest princess Fuyun was very satisfied.
In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of July, and Kang Yan began to prepare for the removal ceremony.
The removal of the clothes is carried out after the third anniversary ceremony of the parents, and according to the rules of Macheng Prefecture, the third anniversary ceremony is half of the time, and the specifications are only a little smaller than when they were buried.
On the side of the Kang family's ancestral house, although Kang Yan and Uncle Kang and Uncle Kang basically cut off contact, the third old lady's family came to the door early to send the sacrifice.
It was Yasagoro who came to deliver the ceremony.
Kang Yan always remembered that when her parents celebrated their first anniversary, when there was a flood in Macheng Mansion, only Kang Wulang secretly went to Qinxiangyuan every day to help.
For more than a year, although she no longer had contact with the Kang family's ancestral house on the surface, she secretly helped Kang Gorou a lot.
Although she is grateful to Kang Goro, she doesn't trust the third old lady and Uncle Kang's family.
In the entire Kang family, only Uncle Kang and Kang Wulang, father and son, are honest people.
Uncle Kang's family, not counting the ancestral house, still wanted to pick out more things from Xiao Jiu's hands, the two shops they gave them when they succeeded Xiao Jiu had long been bankrupt by them who were not good at management, so they thought about asking Xiao Jiu for more money, and after being rejected by Xiao Jiu that year, the couple were annoyed and angry, and they ruined Kang Yan and Xiao Jiu outside.
Now Yasgoro is now working as an apprentice in a larger flower shop in the flower market, learning to grow and raise flowers.
Kang Goro also knew that it was Kang Yan's cousin who was secretly helping him, he studied very seriously and hard, and he had achieved something in more than a year.
Knowing Kang Yeon's dissatisfaction with the rest of the Kang family, Kang Goro never mentioned at home that Kang Yan helped him find a job.
He and Kang Yan secretly had dealings only with Uncle Kang's family.
Seeing that it was Kanggoro who came, Kang Yeon asked him to receive the ceremony, welcomed him into the house and spoke.
"Fifth brother, my ninth brother and I are going to enter Beijing next month, and I'm afraid we will rarely go back to Macheng Mansion in the future." She hesitated for a while, but finally said this.
Kang Wulang looked up at her in surprise, and then smiled, since Kang Yan is the county lord, she will enter Beijing sooner or later.
"Sister, don't worry, I will watch my family and don't let her come to Qinxiangyuan and the shop for trouble," Kanggoro said, "My sister and ninth brother should also be careful after entering Beijing, if so, if you have kung fu, come back with a peace letter." ”
The last sentence is a little cautious.
Kang Yan smiled, she told Kang Wulang that she was not afraid that the Kang family would take advantage of her absence to seize the Kang family's property, her Qin Xiang Garden and flower shop, bonsai shop and Qiao Danhua's perfume workshop, she had already entrusted it to the newly appointed wife of the Lu Governor's Mansion, and the prefect took care of it, and I believe that no one would look at the Kang family's property.
However, Kang Wulang was also kind, Kang Yan couldn't bear to hit him, so he smiled and nodded, "Well, I'll bring the letter back," paused, and said again, "If the fifth brother has something to do in the future, he can go to Beijing to find us, if he needs help, he can also ask Uncle Zhao and them to carry the letter to Beijing, Uncle Zhao and Zhao's mother will stay at home, you know them." ”
Kanggoro looked up suddenly, his face was excited and surprised, this was the first time Kang Yeon said that if there was something, she would help.
Is this finally admitting that he is an older brother?
Kang Goro's heart was ecstatic, he had learned a lot of truths outside in the past two years, and he also knew in his heart that what his grandfather and his uncle's family were doing was not good for Kang Yan, and he wanted to make up for it as much as possible.
She also understands that Kang Yan has long stopped treating these people in her family as relatives in her heart.
didn't expect Kang Yan to say such a thing.
He rubbed his hands, nodded repeatedly, and spoke a little incoherently, "Well, I see, if you need help, I'll talk to my sister." ”
But I made up my mind in my heart to try not to cause trouble to my sister and ninth brother, after all, I heard that it is not easy to live in the capital.
Sending off Kanggoro was carried away, and many people came to send the sacrifice one after another.
The ceremony on the Su family's side was sent by Su Erlang with someone, and Kang Yan left him with a cup of tea, and said that after the ceremony, she would go to visit Mrs. Su and Ding.
Qi Chenjing's rituals were still in accordance with the etiquette of worshiping his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and he arrived at Macheng Mansion one after the other with the rituals of the Chen family.
Even the emperor's side also sent a sacrifice of the county lord's grade to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In the whole Macheng Mansion, people who have a little relationship have come to the door to send the sacrifice, and on the third anniversary of the festival, more people came, and the whole festival day was very grand.
After the third anniversary, in addition to the clothes, I replaced the plain furnishings at home, as well as the white lanterns that had been hanging, and replaced them with red lanterns pasted with red yarn.
The Kang Yan sisters and brothers can also wear brighter clothes.
The eldest princess of Fuyun set off for the capital on the tenth day of August.
Kang Yeon began to make her final preparations.
Fortunately, she had already started preparations for entering Beijing half a year ago, and the manpower for entering Beijing had been decided in advance, and the shops and gardens at home were also arranged.
Kang Yeon began to go out to visit the homes of people with whom she had a slightly better relationship, which was a farewell.
She went to see Mrs. Su and Ding first, and explained some arrangements at home.
Mrs. Su and Ding's told her again and again that she must be careful when she enters Beijing, marry Qi Chenjing as soon as possible, and spread her branches.
It can be seen that they are very concerned about Qi Chenjing.
Kang Yeon replied with a red face.
Time came to the ninth day of the eighth month in a flash, everything was in order, just waiting to set off, but Kang Yan received news from the capital, saying that there was a little baby boy in King An's mansion, and it was said that King An's concubine gave birth to him.
After Kang Yan received the news, Rao was suspicious of the authenticity of the news, but her heart still couldn't help but panic, if it weren't for the teaching of the eldest princess Fuyun for a few months, she was afraid that she would like to put on her wings and immediately go to the capital to see what was going on.
Is it a conspiracy or is it real?
Kang Yan tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and on the second day, staring at a pair of blue and black eyes appeared in front of everyone.
The eldest princess of Fuyun glanced at her and sighed in her heart, I am afraid that the affairs of Yan'er and Jing'er will go through many twists and turns, and I don't know if this decision is right or wrong.
I wanted to say something, but I didn't say it after all, only lightly ordered: "Let's go." ”
Four carriages, followed by more wagons with things, carried the group on the road to Beijing. (To be continued.) )
