Chapter 072: Cross Out Names

After the transfer of 1,000 Royal Forest Army, Zhang Chi and Zhang Lan immediately led the crowd to set off and rushed to Jiayuguan under the starry night.

The British Duchess led the crowd to see her off and returned, and couldn't help but sigh: "I heard that Zhang Shoufu is the main force, most of the courtiers support it, and even the queen mother of the two palaces is against the war." Under such circumstances, His Majesty can still transfer 1,000 elites of the Royal Forest Army to Jiayuguan with Brother Chi and Brother Lan in the name of 'escort' to reinforce the Northwest Frontier Army, which is really a great grace! ”

Zhang Tan and others also felt deeply blessed and echoed one after another.

While he was talking, the maid came in and said, "Miss Huang is here." ”

Zhang Tan got up to say goodbye.

Zhang Xi personally greeted him.

The two met under the weeping flower gate, smiled and saluted, and went to the main courtyard together.

The English duchess was instructing the maid to make tea and serve refreshments, and a few eight-treasure boxes were full of all kinds of food.

When Zhang Xi saw it, he deliberately complained coquettishly: "Mother hides so many delicious foods, why don't you see them for me and my sister-in-law and sister-in-law on weekdays?" It can be seen that I feel sorry for Sister An better than a few of us! ”

The British Duchess smiled: "Your sister An is younger than you, and she is a guest at the door, you look up to her for a little food, how can you be a good 'sister' in the future?" ”

This "sister" made Huang Yian a little embarrassed and lowered his head slightly.

The British duchess was very happy when she saw that Huang Yi'an understood her words, and although her head was lowered, she was still generous.

Luoluo's generosity shows that he has a calm and generous temperament, and he will definitely be able to support the door with Brother Lan in the future.

After talking for a while, the British duchess was afraid that Huang Yi'an would feel restrained, so she told Zhang Xi to take Huang Yi'an to play.

The two said goodbye to the British duchess and went to the Qingyu Courtyard where Zhang Xi lived.

When they arrived at the Qingyu Courtyard, the two sat on the couch in the east room, and instructed the maid to serve tea and snacks, so they only left Lan Xin to wait outside so that they could talk freely.

"Today, the third young master and the fourth young master set off for Jiayuguan, and it is inconvenient for me to go to see them off, but I hope they will have a safe journey and arrive at Jiayuguan as soon as possible." Huang Yi'an clasped his hands together.

Zhang Xi said with a smile: "Don't worry, with the elite escort of the 1,000 Royal Forest Army specially allocated by His Majesty, the third brother and Brother Lan will definitely arrive safely." ”

Huang Yi'an's hand serving tea couldn't help but pause. smiled: "One thousand Royal Forest Army, that's not a small number." ”

"Not really." Zhang Xi sighed and said in a low voice, "At present, although Your Majesty is in charge of the government, all military affairs must be decided after consulting Zhang Shoufu. This thousand Imperial Forest Army is almost the limit of His Majesty's private mobilization.

"What's more, the call for the main guard of the imperial court is getting louder and louder, and Zhang Shoufu and the empress dowager of the two palaces do not approve of the use of troops against Gaochangguo, under such circumstances, Your Majesty privately allocated a thousand imperial forest troops to go west to Jiayuguan with the third brother and Brother Lan, you can imagine how much opposition and suspicion it will cause."

Huang Yi'an clenched the teacup tightly for a while before nodding and saying, "Yes." I didn't expect Your Majesty to be so decisive this time......"

There was no such thing in the previous life, and until Zhang Gui was liquidated after his death, the emperor respected this "Yuanfu teacher" very much, and the military affairs should be entrusted with it. As long as Zhang Gui objected, even if he was unhappy in his heart, he rarely refuted it, let alone directly acted against his will.

The emperor of this world really made her more and more incomprehensible.

Zhang Xi nodded, and had to "sing praises" to the young emperor.

Huang Yi'an listened with a smile and did not speak.

"By the way, what is the matter with Sister An's visit this time?" Zhang Xi peeled an orange, broke it open and handed it to Huang Yi'an, and asked with a smile.

Huang Yi'an took the orange and said with a smile: "Look at Sister Zhang's words, it seems that I won't come if I'm fine." ”

Zhang Xi nodded and smiled: "That's the case." You count it yourself, except for the time when you sent jasmine dew, which time was not me who made a post and tried my best to invite you, so you reluctantly came over.

"Everyone else wants to come to the British Mansion a few more times, but you're good, you can't wait to hide away."

Huang Yi'an smiled.

When she first came back, she did make up her mind to stay away from the British Prince's Office, but Zhang Xi took the initiative to get close from time to time, and later she even discussed marriage with Zhang Lan by coincidence, and this plan was long ago lost to where it was lost.

"Say, let's be polite to each other." Zhang Xi smiled, took a petal of orange in his mouth, and waited for Huang Yi'an's answer while eating.

"Right now, I really have a matter that I ask the Duchess to help me with." Huang Yi'an tossed the orange petal in his hand and said with a smile.

Zhang Xi immediately raised his eyebrows, with a look of pride, "Look, let me be right".

Huang Yi'an couldn't help laughing and said: "When the Ministry of Rites solicited the roster of post-election, I filled it out because I was within the specified age and had no marriage contract, so I filled it in.

"Now I think about it, since I will make a marriage contract with the fourth young master, should I go to the Ministry of Rites to inquire, if it is not in the list of candidates drawn up by the Ministry of Rites, if it is on the list, I have to ask my wife to help me cross my name from the roster.

"Originally, this matter should have been entrusted by my mother from the door, but because of something at home recently, my mother couldn't get out, so I took the liberty of coming to Yangyun. Please forgive Sister Zhang. ”

Qi was recently diagnosed with a happy pulse, and she had severe morning sickness, and Wang took care of her every day, and she was very busy. This matter could not be delayed, Huang Yi'an thought about it, so he could only come to the door and ask for help.

However, in the end, she is a girl's family, how can this kind of thing directly implore the British Duchess, the future mother-in-law, so she can only ask Zhang Xi to help deliver the message.

Zhang Xi laughed when he heard this, laughed, and joked in a low voice: "Sister An is so thoughtful, if Brother Lan knows, I don't know how happy I am!" ”

Huang Yi'an glanced at her, and thought to herself that as long as Zhang Lanken always treated her sincerely, she would definitely live a good life with him.

Zhang Xi was afraid that people would be annoyed, so he put away the joke and said, "Don't worry, I'll go tell my mother in a while." It just so happened that the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces recently issued an edict to ask the Ministry of Rites to reorganize the roster to be selected after the establishment, and now the Ministry of Rites should not have submitted the roster, and it is easy to cross out a name. ”

After the Ministry of Rites submitted the list of candidates to be selected, the news of the establishment was delayed due to the emperor's inactivity. The queen mother of the two palaces should be in a hurry, so the Ministry of Rites sorted out the roster again and selected the first queen and the second concubine.

Huang Yi'an breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

It was precisely because she calculated the time that she came to ask for help.

After the Double Ninth Festival in the previous life, the palace issued a decree for the future.

I don't know why in this life, not to mention the postponement after the establishment, and recently the Ministry of Rites has reorganized the roster and reported it.

However, this is a good way to do things cheaply.

If she is not on the new roster, or if her name is crossed off the roster, she will have complete peace of mind.

……

After sending Huang Yi'an away, Zhang Xi immediately informed the British Duchess of the matter.

The British Duchess smiled when she heard this: "It should be so!" It's rare for this kid to think so thoughtfully, it can be seen that he is very serious about Brother Lan and this family business. ”

Those who treat marriage with their hearts will not have a bad life.

The more the British duchess thought about it, the more satisfied she became, and immediately ordered: "Leave this matter to your eldest brother to handle it personally." The sooner the better. ”

Although there are so many women to be selected, and there are still many people who have secretly dredged up relationships, it is very unlikely that a girl like Huang Yi'an who is not here will be selected, but for the sake of safety, her name must be crossed off the list of candidates as soon as possible.

……

Zhang Tan personally went to the Ministry of Rites to handle the matter.

Because Mingda was one of the officials specifically responsible for handling this matter, Zhang Tan directly approached him.

When Mingda saw the British prince visiting, he got up and greeted him with a smile: "Why is Ziyuan free to come over today?" Hurry up, please take a seat. ”

is both warm and cordial, and the identity of the subordinate and the elder is very clever.

Zhang Tan also smiled politely: "Uncle." ”

If it weren't for Brother Lan's lifelong happiness, he really didn't want to deal with this slick and selfish so-called uncle.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries and sat down.

Mingda poured Zhang Tan a cup of tea.

Zhang Tan hurriedly took it with both hands and thanked him.

"I heard that my uncle has been busy sorting out the roster of concubines to be selected recently, I don't know how it is going?" Zhang Tan asked with a tentative smile.
