Chapter 303: First Arrival in Cangzhou
When Wei Yan came back, Shen Yuan had already woken up, "Are you going to hurry?" ”
Wei Yan walked over, squatted down, put on Shen Yuan's shoes, his movements were not very skillful, but his strength was very gentle, "Set off after breakfast, what do you want to eat, let Antarite buy it." ”
Shen Yuan thought for a while and said, "Xiaolongbao." ”
"Okay." Wei Yan smiled and picked her up.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and in a blink of an eye, it is late autumn, Wei Yan wants to buy a carriage to hurry, but Shen Yuan refuses.
"I'm not that squeamish, I can stand it." Shen Yuan pursed her lips and said to Wei Yan.
If you are driving a carriage, it will definitely be delayed for a few more days.
The four of them continued to hurry, leaving Jinling City and rushing all the way to Cangzhou, without delaying time on the way, they actually entered Cangzhou faster than they were in danger.
Cangzhou is not as prosperous as Chang'an City and Jinling City, but the people can also live and work in peace and contentment here, and the people are simple.
Cangzhou is somewhat different from other states and counties in the Ming Dynasty in that it has a city lord under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, which is also to cover up the matter of training grounds, which has been the case for a hundred years.
The current Cangzhou city lord Song Chengwen has been in office for more than ten years, and there has been no major chaos, which is deeply favored by Emperor Yunjing.
After entering Cangzhou, Shen Yuan turned his head and secretly whispered in Wei Yan's ear: "The dowry I prepared for myself has arrived in Cangzhou." ”
Wei Yan raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "When did you prepare a dowry for yourself?" ”
Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Since I met you when I was four years old." ”
At first, I saved my favorite small toys, and later I saved some female celebrities I made, and when I grew up, I saved money......
Until now, what she has seriously saved is enough to fill a bank.
"My people have been waiting in Cangzhou for a long time, and they have also bought a house, should we go to live? Or do you have other plans? Shen Yuan asked.
Wei Yan touched her head and said, "Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion first, and then you can live in the City Lord's Mansion or your own mansion, I may often live in the barracks when I train soldiers." ”
There are rules in the barracks, so naturally you can't just take Shen Kite in.
Although Shen Yuan was reluctant in her heart, she still nodded, "I'll live there by myself, you don't have to worry about me, I will wait for you to come back." ”
Although the City Lord's Mansion is good, it is not his home after all.
"Okay, I'll send more people to protect you then." Wei Yan is most worried about Shen Yuan's safety, it is easy to dodge open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows.
Shen Yuan looked at the streets around Cangzhou, because Cangzhou is surrounded by mountains on three sides and the traffic is inconvenient, so there are very few contacts with the outside world, and the things sold are also very simple. The dresses and jewelry sold in the shop, if you take it to Chang'an or Jinling to see, can be said to be outdated styles.
Wei Yan took Shen Yuan to the Cangzhou City Lord's Mansion, Song Chengwen had already been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw Wei Yan, he hurriedly greeted him.
Because it was inconvenient to reveal Wei Yan's identity, he could only change his words: "Xia Guan has seen Gongzi." ”
Wei Yan nodded, and then took Shen Yuan and them into the City Lord's Mansion.
The City Lord's Mansion was not as gorgeous and extravagant as it was imagined, but it was elegant and exquisite everywhere.
Shen Yuan recalled the things he had found out about Song Chengwen before, thirty years ago, he participated in the scientific expedition, explored the flowers, and was originally a Beijing official, but later he was transferred to a local post by Emperor Yunjing, and he was loved by the people. The people called him iron-faced and selfless, and was later appointed by Emperor Yunjing to take over the position of the lord of Cangzhou, and Song Chengwen did not disappoint Emperor Yunjing, who served for more than ten years and was diligent.
For so many years, I haven't heard any bad comments about him.
Song Chengwen and Wei Yan wanted to discuss business, but Shen Yuan was naturally inconvenient to follow, so Song Chengwen asked his daughter-in-law Xu to entertain her.
"Mrs. Wei, how about we go to the garden and sit?" Xu was born in a scholarly family, elegant and generous, in his thirties, but still charming.
Shen Yuan was stunned for a moment when she heard Xu's name for herself, this was the first time someone called her Mrs. Wei, and hurriedly responded: "Okay." ”
Song Chengwen said to Xu again: "Wait for Zhi'er to come back, let him come directly to the study." ”
"Yes, father-in-law." The Zhi'er in Song Chengwen's mouth is his eldest son, that is, Xu's husband.
Wei Yan helped Shen Yuan gather his cloak and said, "I'll pick you up soon, madam." ”
Shen Yuan's ears were red and he nodded.
What did she suddenly call her wife for......
In the past, it was Shen Yuan Shen who shouted, and suddenly called her Mrs., she was really a little uncomfortable.
The Xu family knew the identities of their Wei Yan and Shen Yuan, and when they saw the two of them loving each other, they smiled from the bottom of their hearts.
"Childe, please rest assured." Xu Shi saluted Wei Yan, and then took Shen Yuan down.
The nine-curved corridor in the garden of the city lord's mansion was built with ingenuity, and Xu took Shen Yuan to a small pavilion in the corridor, surrounded by light gauze curtains to block the wind, and Xu asked people to add two stoves, so he didn't feel cold.
"Mrs. Wei can take off her mask, and the courtiers won't talk nonsense." Xu Shi waved off the other subordinates and said to Shen Yuan.
Wearing a mask all the time, Shen Yuan didn't like it very much, and after hearing what Xu said, he took off the mask.
Xu knew that Shen Yuan was known as the first beauty in Chang'an, and when she saw it today, she was so beautiful that she was a little moved as a woman.
"Dare to ask Mrs. Wei how old she is this year?" Xu Shi saw that Shen Yuan was not very old, and he was a little curious in his heart.
"Seventeen." Shen Yuan didn't hate Xu, she could feel Xu's kindness to her.
Xu Shi smiled and said, "Mrs. Wei is one year older than my daughter, my daughter is sixteen this year, usually naughty and active, and she hasn't even decided on a marriage yet." ”
"Mrs. Song is a beauty, presumably Miss Song is not bad, why worry about not finding a satisfactory marriage." Shen Yuan replied.
Xu Shi was coaxed into laughter by Shen Yuan's words, she thought that Shen Yuan, as the princess of King Qin, would definitely have some, but now that she looks at it, she is unexpectedly easy to get along with.
Although it is not to the point of heart-to-heart, it is also very easy to talk on the surface.
"Borrowing Mrs. Wei's auspicious words, the little girl is lively, Mrs. Wei first arrived in Cangzhou, and she didn't have any friends to talk to. If Mrs. Wei doesn't dislike it, she can often travel with the little girl. Xu's words are also tactful, in fact, he also has his own selfishness, after all, he is good friends with the princess of King Qin, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.
Shen Yuan responded with a smile.
Xu Shi said again: "The courtiers have already arranged a yard for you, why don't Mrs. Wei go with the courtiers to see if there are any things that need to be added." ”
Shen Yuan smiled a little apologetically, and said, "I'm bothering you so much, my husband and I don't live in the City Lord's Mansion, we have already purchased a house outside, so I'll trouble you." ”
Xu felt a little pity in his heart, but he could only respond softly.
"Mother, mother, I heard that there are guests at home!" A pleasant and lively voice came, and Shen Yuan raised his eyes to look.
