Chapter 221: Strange
The New Year is just a busy and tiring day for Ruixue.
Since she arrived in Zhuangzi, it will be the New Year in two days.
The people in the village have also stopped working, under the arrangement of Li Yu and Lao Qian.
Even if Zhuangzi is now crowded with thousands of people in the eighteen-mile shop, everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Rui Xue really hopes that Zhao Fengnian can surprise her or something, even if she comes over to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with her.
I was dizzy and busy for two days, and until the afternoon of the thirtieth day, when dinner was served, I didn't see a single figure back to the village.
While disappointed in my heart, I was faintly worried.
The courtyard wall of King Ning's Mansion is broken like a sieve, although it is rumored that it is haunted inside, ordinary people dare not go.
But now Zhao Fengnian is defending against the assassins of Beique, does it really matter?
The reason why Rui Xue was so worried about Zhao Fengnian was that she felt a little guilty and sorry for him.
When he decided to protect Qi Qilu, he didn't want to face any consequences at all.
This should have been his own responsibility, but now Zhao Fengnian has been asked to bear it.
Although I don't know how to spend the previous New Year, Zhao Fengnian lived.
No matter how bad it is, it won't be as bad as it is now, and on the thirty nights, you have to prevent the assassins from sneaking up.
Rui Xue didn't want to affect everyone's New Year because of her emotions.
After a brief meal, I went back to my room.
gave a few to Xiao Tao Xiao Xinggu Lian, sent a red envelope, and allowed them three days off, so they don't have to follow her these days.
Pull Rong Niang to write and draw in the house to pass the time.
After Rong Niang went to the north, how this good hall should develop.
It can be regarded as finding something to do for myself, so that I will not continue to think crankily and continue to be depressed.
On the third day of the new year, several carriages entered Zhuangzi.
Huaiyu got off the car happily, pulled several carts full of New Year's goods, and beckoned the people in the village to unload the car.
Rui Xue rushed over when she heard this, and she was not polite to her, but she felt a little strange.
"Big lady, how much money have you earned, why do you want to give a New Year's gift at this time."
Huaiyu winked at Ruixue: "Isn't this all thanks to you, I'll accept it for you, don't ask the east and the west." ”
pulled Rui Xue and whispered, "What about Rong Niang?" This is all prepared for her by Mrs. Right Minister, is it decided, when will it leave? ”
Rui Xue pursed her lips, she said, how could Jiang Huai be so generous and let Huaiyu give her a New Year's gift.
The relationship was given to Rong Niang by Mrs. Right Minister.
"It's going to take a while, the situation in the north is not very stable now, and Rong Niang's body is not easy to travel long distances. I thought I'd wait for the weather to get warmer before sending her over. ”
Huaiyu nodded: "That's how it should be." By the way, the saint has decreed, the Gu staff general you mentioned before will go to the north to take up his post after the fifteenth year, and your prince is afraid that he will not be able to leave in the near future. ”
Rui Xue had already foreseen this, and it was not surprising to hear Huaiyu say that it had been finalized.
It's just that Gu Shen is so anxious about the time of departure, I don't know if it is Zhao Fengnian's meaning.
At the banquet that day, Zhao Fengnian took General Gu to see the saint, and this was about what he said.
He probably knew that the Holy Lord would not let him go back to the north, so he chose General Gu.
I just don't know how Zhao Fengnian made the saint compromise, wouldn't the person he recommended be rejected by the saint.
Huaiyu tugged at Ruixue's sleeve again, her voice lowered, and there was obviously a hint of excitement in her tone.
"In order to win over General Gu, Xiang Ye gave gifts and invited guests, and everyone in Kyoto knew about the toss, who knew that General Gu didn't pay attention to his stubble at all, and handed him a fold, saying that Zuo Xiang was hindering his government affairs. He was taught a good lesson by the saint. ”
"If it weren't for the holidays now, those sworn enemies in Jiang Huai's court would definitely make a fuss about this matter, so that he wouldn't be able to get off the stage."
Huaiyu said excitedly, and his face was full of unconcealable joy.
Knowing that Jiang Huai's life was not satisfactory, Rui Xue felt much more comfortable.
Jiang Huai wooed General Gu like this, just for the sake of those trade routes in the north.
probably felt that Zhao Fengnian was unreliable, so he had to find someone else.
I didn't expect to kick the iron plate, it should be quite uncomfortable.
Huaiyu didn't stay on the Zhuangzi for long, sent something, left the letter from Mrs. Youxiang to Rong Niang and left.
She is very busy now, and many things are waiting for her to decide on the business and business of the noblewomen of Kyoto.
After sending Huaiyu away, Rui Xue realized that Huaiyu had not mentioned anything related to Ning Wangfu.
I don't know what the situation of Ning Wangfu is now, or I don't want to say it to make her worry.
She still remembered that Zhao Fengnian told her when he sent her out of the house.
It's good to celebrate the New Year with peace of mind, everything has me.
She really believed him, and didn't care.
I turned around and went to the pantry, and packed a few snacks and sweets.
Called Gu Lian and instructed: "You go back to King Ning's Mansion and give these things to the prince." Ask him when he plans to call me back. ”
I waited restlessly for a long time, and Gu Lian didn't come back until it was dark.
"The prince said, everything is fine, tell Miss not to worry, and said that he will pick up Miss on the fifteenth day to go back to see the lights."
Rui Xue nodded, and she didn't want to ask again, it was better not to ask too much about assassins or something.
"You can see the wine dust when you go back?"
"I haven't seen Young Master Jiuchen, but the servants who served him before are still living in the previous courtyard. I didn't hear that Young Master Jiuchen was leaving, but I didn't see him come back. ”
This is strange, since the banquet in the palace, Rui Xue has not seen Li Jiuchen.
I don't know what these blue water people have in mind.
The matter of trade between the two countries has never been conclusive, and not a single piece of information has been revealed about the negotiations between the two sides.
At the national level, there is no agreement, but there is a lot of interaction between the people.
Only Rui Xue knew that Shan Li Jiuchen had signed a lot of orders with those Dalan merchants who had seen it.
A large part of it was carried out in Song Shimiao's Yunliang Pavilion.
In this way, even if there is no cooperation between Bishui and Dalan, as long as the two sides establish diplomatic relations.
The people will also have a lot of business and trade with Bishui.
It's just a question of how much the Holy One can profit from it.
It seems that Bishui is not hostile to Dalan, but just to the saint.
They did want to do business with Dalan, but they didn't want the saint to be too proud.
This agreement on exchange of commerce and trade, which has not been followed for a long time, may be to make the saint uncomfortable and give more means to the clear water.
Li Jiuchen participated in the poisoning of Qi Qilu, and Bacheng also wanted to unite with Beique and create more trouble for the saint.
They all have grievances with Dalan, and it doesn't seem impossible to have the opportunity to join forces.
Through this incident, Rui Xue had more doubts and distrust of these Bishui relatives.
