Chapter 657: Returning to the Capital to Meet Old Friends

The Houguo Mansion is much more magnificent than before, with ten palace maids plus some of the previous palace shows to help He Cripple, the Houfu after the double expansion can be kept clean as new, and Ding Kui almost didn't recognize it when he came back. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Congratulations, young master!" He lame said when he saw Ding Kui first, "There are many things to decide at home, the master has not come back yet, you can call the shots when you come back." ”

"Oh, okay, let's go inside. Ding Kui went to the capital first, "Is the original room still preserved?"

"The whole backyard and the big and small study rooms have been preserved, and the rest of the place has been more or less renovated. According to the master's instructions, the newly expanded part of the backyard is all built according to your preferences, and the master also said that his daughters-in-law will live next to it in the future, hoping to be full. "He lame supervised the expansion process of the Hou Mansion.

"Now the king will be the first to object, not to mention this. Ding Kui smiled self-deprecatingly, "How has Guangsheng been cultivating recently?"

"Thanks to the elixir you rewarded, that kid was promoted to Blade Knight at the beginning of the year, and there is hope to break through to the middle level of Blade within the year, and he has lived up to your cultivation. Speaking of his grandson, He Cripple's eyes were smiling.

"Yes, it's about the same as when I was promoted to the fighting blade, my senior brother taught him the teacher's exercises, and it is a sure thing to be promoted to fearlessness, but it's a pity that it's too young otherwise you can follow me to the army to practice. "Why did Ding Kui spend more than a million gold coins to buy the elixir, if he didn't achieve satisfactory results, it is estimated that he would go to the Lu Chamber of Commerce to ask for a refund.

The master and servant came to the study first.

He lame stepped back before he asked, "Young Master, now that the king has given you a marriage, do you want to stay in the Horse Mansion or stay at home?"

When the princess gets married, the clan palace will allocate a mansion to the concubine, but almost all the concubines are the children of the great family, and the concubine mansion is dispensable for them, except for a few princesses who are unwilling to live with the concubine's family, the concubine mansion is basically vacant. When the princess does not stay in the Pony Mansion for five consecutive years, the Clan Mansion will be repossessed.

"Where do you live, what are you doing? Stay at home, of course. "The Ding family is originally small, and Ding Kui likes to be crowded and lively, so he won't choose to go to the Horse Mansion.

"That needs to be rebuilt in the new backyard princess annex, the clan mansion has standards for the princess's living, and the princess has not lived in the princess's mansion for a long time. "He Cripple himself has never seen a princess appear in the Hou Mansion.

"Is there still a standard? Is this a wife or a trouble? Doesn't it have to follow our family's rules?" Ding Kui was a little surprised.

"Hehe, don't say that when the young master is outside, the royal family has the rules of the royal family, the princess is the bloodline of the royal family, and she should be treated differently, this is not a trouble, and all the renovation costs are allocated by the clan government, and it doesn't cost us a penny. "He lame, this porter is as competent as a housekeeper.

"Of course, I saved money for the Clan Mansion for a Horse Mansion. Ding Kui was still unhappy.

"If the old slave from the young lady asked the commander to bring the guards over, I don't know if it's appropriate?"

"Ready!"

"There is an invitation to the eldest grandson of Dingguo, tomorrow you are invited to the Ruwu Tower for a banquet, the housekeeper of the Yang Mansion said that there will be many children of the family to pick up the wind for you tomorrow, please be sure to enjoy the light. He lame took out an invitation.

Ding Kui took the invitation and glanced at it, and said: "Yang Mian, I also met him during the national competition, and I haven't met him at all since then, how can I organize someone to pick me up? Do I have such a deep friendship with him?"

"Yang Gongzi has a wide range of friends and pays attention to the affection of friends, and often invites three or five friends to gather, and it is normal for you to be invited to this banquet. "He Cripple is the eyes and ears of the Ding family in the capital.

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow. "Ding Kui came to the capital alone and didn't have much to do, and he didn't mind meeting a few more friends.

After that, He Cripple asked Ding Kui to make a decision on the list of guests to be invited to the marriage ceremony, the dowry for the eldest princess, and other matters related to the etiquette of the marriage ceremony.

Ding Kui was dizzy to hear every item, if he didn't have a super memory, he would forget the front when he said the back, fortunately, Ding Kun asked him to memorize the aristocratic etiquette since he was a child, and he knew how to deal with those problems.

The master and servant both ate their dinner in the study, marrying the princess is not a simple matter, it is several times more complicated than the wedding of Ding Kui and Long Yan, if it is not for the clan mansion to preside over the operation, the master and servant of the Ding family will not be able to take care of it at all

"When will my father come back?" Finally finishing the matter, Ding Kui leaned back in his chair.

"The lord is estimated to have arrived in the capital at the end of August, and I heard that a spiritual object was auctioned off as a dowry for the princess, so we are just preparing a simple one. Although He Cripple was tired, he was also very excited, and he was relieved that he didn't have to delay the marriage of the son.

"Well, there's more than a month to keep my father busy. It was getting late, so I sent someone to the Anguo Mansion to say goodbye, and said that I would go to my uncle early tomorrow morning to say goodbye. Ding Kui found that it was close to midnight before he knew it.

Although his grandfather is not in the capital, his maternal uncle is here, and Ding Kui should visit him after he returns home, except in special circumstances.

Early the next morning, Ding Kui, who had restored the clothes worn by the children of the nobles, went out to the Anguo Mansion and wore a military uniform for more than two years.

Well, who are these people at the northeast street entrance, on the west restaurant, in the teahouse in the front left, and in the back right?

Ding Kui walked on the street and found an abnormality, and casually noticed several people who were following and monitoring him, but these people were too unprofessional compared to the people in the spy department, and some of them were even dressed as domestic servants.

I'm dizzy, don't they know that I'm the commander of the tiger Ben? Don't they know that I have infiltrated the rear of the enemy army to carry out a surprise attack? Send this garbage to follow me, who is doing such a stupid thing? Bullying me and not bringing anyone here, right, I have to find Brother Mi after the noon banquet.

It seems that those people have no evil intentions and just follow Ding Kui, and there is no other action, although Ding Kui is annoyed, he does not have a seizure on the spot. He found that his "forbearance" character lacked fire and was easily provoked by others, and he was determined to endure a certain level.

Jiang Nai was waiting at the gate of An Guogong, and when he saw Ding Kui coming, he hurriedly stepped forward, "Young Master, why did you walk here?

"It's not nothing, I haven't been to the capital for a long time and plan to take a walk and take a look, and be more familiar with the environment of the national capital, sitting in the carriage has a lot less scenery. Ding Kui explained.

"Now that we are more than two months away from the marriage ceremony, you have plenty of time to get acquainted. You go inside, the master is waiting for you in the study. ”

"By the way, how is Commander Wan now? Without him, I probably won't be able to come back. Ding Kui remembered Wanmai, who had broken a leg for himself.

"Thank you young master for your concern, the old lady ordered Wanmai to be sent back to Anguo County, and he wanted to personally condition Wanmai's body. Jiang Nai couldn't help but be moved, Ding Kui's concern for Wanmai was rare in his opinion.

"If there is any need in Commander Wan's family, please tell me, no amount of money can replace one of his legs, I always have to do my best for him. Ding Kui felt that he owed a lot of money.

"Wan Mai was specially sent by the second master to protect you, he completed the task perfectly, and it is impossible for the Jiang family to treat him and his family badly. If the young master has a heart, I have an idea. ”

"Tell me about it. Ding Kui attaches great importance to the opinion of this old housekeeper of Jiang Mansion, you must know that his housekeeper was taught by Jiang Nai, and his skills may be less than one-third of Jiang Nai's.

"Wanmai's grandchildren have been honoring their parents at home, and they didn't come out to do things, originally the old man wanted to arrange it for them, since the young master wants to do his best, then the old slave suggests that you come to arrange. This will not only satisfy your wishes but also help the people of the Wan family, and it will not affect the reputation of the Jiang family. ”

"Very good!" I'll tell my uncle in a moment. Ding Kui thought about it and added, "As long as the Wan family doesn't dislike following me, a powerless person." ”

"Hahaha, you're humble. The old slave dared to say, we are all waiting for you to enter the Anguo Mansion, who dares to say that you have no power and no power?" Jiang Naile was happy.

"That's a later story, and I won't disappoint you. Ding Kui jumped over the pit that Jiang Nai had dug.

Jiang Li gained weight, and the faces of the three elders of the busy Senate became more and more ruddy, which made Ding Kui amazed, "Uncle is very popular." ”

"Old, it's not as good as you young people. I have heard your sentence called, 'The back waves of the Tongyuan River push the front waves, and the people of the Shenyuan Continent are better than the ancients', which is very reasonable.

When my father heard that your performance on the battlefield was good, he was sharper than his old man's appearance on the battlefield, and he just responded to your words. Jiang Li praised as soon as they met.

The patriarch has real power, but he also has to win people's hearts, it is a job that requires skills to speak, and Jiang Li is competent.

"Where does Kui'er dare to compare with 'Yongshuai', uncle don't laugh at me. Ding Kui knew his grandfather's name. Jiang Tong has beheaded several sixth-level combat power with a "moon death", and no one is unconvinced by the name of "brave and handsome".

Jiang Li talked to Ding Kui the most about the marriage ceremony, and wrote to Shao Dianxi without mentioning anything, and did not let Ding Kui lead to that topic, indicating that his support for Ding Kui would never be reciprocated and dispel Ding Kui's psychological burden.

"The young master of the Yang family invited you to a banquet, it's okay to go and have a look, but you have to remember that his shortcoming is that he is like that to everyone, I think he has a big plan, just be careful not to be used by him." "Jiang Li originally wanted to stay with Ding Kui for dinner.

Ding Kui kept Jiang Li's reminder in mind.

For example, Fuping Street, where the fog building is located, is close to the residential area of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, there are not many pedestrians on the street, but the carriages are endless, and the idle people want to get close will be driven away, and the elegant and quiet Ruwu Tower is in the northwest corner of Fuping Street.

"Hahaha, the famous General Fei has arrived. ”

Before Ding Kui walked into the Ruwu Building, there was hearty laughter from upstairs.

Looking up, he saw Yang Mian waving to him upstairs, and the two heads that poked out together next to him were also known to him, Long Shuang and Kong Ren.

"Good guy, Yang Mian's face is big enough, anyone can find him. Ding Kui thought to himself.
