Chapter 141: Well Deserved
Five days after receiving the letter, Xie Cheng and his family set off for Chang'an.
Seeing the newly built mansion, I was stunned by Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Xiangjin's mother and daughter. It wasn't until Cheng Changan informed a few people about the destruction of the mansion as appropriate, that Cheng Xiangjin finally understood why he never got a letter from his father and brother in the days when he first returned to Meixian County.
Mrs. Cheng complained a lot about him hiding this matter, but fortunately, their father and son were safe, and now that the family lives together again, there is nothing more gratifying than this.
The old lady was more considerate of the actions of her children and grandchildren, and knew their difficulties at that time, but it was rare that she did not count the two.
The new mansion is still built according to the original layout, and Cheng Xiangjin's courtyard is still in the same place, the only difference is that many magnolia trees were destroyed in the courtyard because of the fire, and now there are only three or five left.
Standing in the brand-new Magnolia Courtyard, Cheng Xiangjin felt a lot in his heart.
If Bai Su hadn't been reminded at the beginning, the Cheng family might have lost more than the current mansion!
In this way, it seems that Bai Su owes a great favor!
Thinking of Bai Su, Cheng Xiangjin couldn't help but think of what Xie Lingfeng mentioned about him earlier
Now he is the general of the Yulin Zhonglang of the fourth rank of the official residence, and he also serves as the imperial doctor of the Imperial Physician Department. Yes, among the young talents in Chang'an City, except for Xie Lingfeng, no one seems to be able to compare with him!
In Cheng Xiangjin's view, Bai Su has today's status, and he deserves it!
Except for the day when they just returned to Chang'an, the family sat together for a reunion dinner, and in the next two or three days, the Cheng family father and son went out early and returned late almost every day. Even Xie Lingfeng and Cheng Xiangjin have only met once.
She knew that everyone was preparing for the new emperor to ascend the throne.
After a few more days, after intensive preparations, the court and China finally ushered in the day when the new emperor ascended the throne.
The crown prince Xiao Yunhe successfully inherited the unification and changed the name to Qingyuan.
The emperor, who had been in poor health, thought that he would not survive for a few days. Unexpectedly, after Bai Su's careful conditioning, his spirit was better day by day. Seeing the crown prince ascend the throne smoothly, hundreds of officials congratulated him, and finally showed a little smile on his face that had not smiled for a long time.
He always knew that this day was thanks to the Yan family's father and son, especially Bai Su. Therefore, the Ding'an Hou Mansion, which has been low-key for more than ten years, has become warm again because of the trust and reliance of the new emperor and the emperor.
Especially among the nobles, who have school-age daughters in their families, they are becoming more and more frequent when they come to the Hou Mansion.
Although the emperor will choose a concubine soon, everyone knows that there are Cui Xie and the two families, and even if they fight for these portals, they will compete for a concubine or concubine at most.
That being the case, it is better to marry your daughter to the Yan family!
Now who doesn't know that the most dazzling new son in Chang'an City is Yan Dagongzi!
If his daughter can get such a good son-in-law as Prince Yan, it is much better than entering the palace as a concubine! At the very least, in the same Chang'an City, it is relatively easy to meet.
If you really enter the palace, unless you get the holy favor, if not, what is the difference between that and farewell?
A number of noble ministers in the city took turns to visit the Hou Mansion, and the most frequent one was Yongxinbo's wife, that is, Bai Su's aunt Yan Yu.
Not only did she come, but she also brought her daughter to the door.
The county lord was quite disgusted with their mother and daughter, but because she was the sister of Yan Heng's mother, he could only turn a blind eye to them.
Fortunately, Bai Su rarely had time to stay in the Hou Mansion after serving in the palace, but he didn't give the mother and daughter a chance to meet!
