Chapter 185

The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and Xingji City is full of jubilation.

The commotion in the court hall did not come out.

Cheng Enbo, who was sweating profusely, returned to the mansion, and immediately called his children and even his in-laws.

When everyone arrived in a hurry, he first talked about what happened in the court, and the juniors who had just heard the news burst into an uproar.

"Father/Uncle, is the uncle's residence in trouble?" Everyone asked.

"Not at all." Cheng Enbo shook his head, "It's just that recently, no matter who you are, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't act recklessly, even if you can't go out, don't go out."

"If you cause any trouble for the uncle's mansion or even the queen and the king of Qin, don't blame my subordinates for being merciless."

Everyone in the hall was silent, and no one dared to say anything except nodding their heads.

"Father," the fan in Sun Ye's hand opened and closed, closed and opened again.

He was full of embarrassment, "Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon. My son has to race the dragon boat, so he can't go out. Besides, it's not good to ban everyone's feet at this time."

The others looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Due to the epidemic in the past two years, the entire Yunchui, including Xingji City, has been in turmoil, and almost everyone has no intention of celebrating the festival.

The current Dragon Boat Festival can be regarded as the first big festival after the end of the epidemic. Both the elites and the common people are looking forward to it, hoping that it will be a good start.

Therefore, during dragon boat races, it is said that Emperor Changxing would bring the royal family out to add to the fun.

At that time, if other mansions were celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival outside, but Cheng Enbo Mansion closed its doors, people who didn't know would think that they had made some unforgivable mistake.

The impact is not good.

Cheng Enbo had no choice but to let go, but he continued to insist.Let the children and in-laws must obey the rules and bow their heads during this special time.

After instructing all this, he discussed with King Qin for a while, gritted his teeth and raised a large amount of money, and obediently sent it to the palace.

Township government.

Yingpan followed Ren Ning to the neighbor's house again.

Ren Ning went to practice dragon boat rowing, while she went to visit Princess Yiguang.

Before going out, Ren Ning joked: "Ma'am, you've been bothering the Eldest Princess for ten days and half a month, doesn't she bother you?"

When he was in Guangxin County before, Ren Ning had received a lot of news from Princess Yiguang to Yingpan.After returning to Xingji City this time, he found out that Yingpan didn't even need to ask for invitations, and would visit the Duke of Zhen's mansion every two or three days, just as frequently as ordinary people visiting each other's neighbors.

"No way," Ying Pan said with a grin, "I don't know how much the Eldest Princess welcomes me."

There are countless noble women in the entire imperial capital, but there are not many women who can run wildly on tall horses or even wield knives and guns. Yingpan is one of them.

When Princess Yiguang saw her, she remembered her heroic appearance when she was young and led the army, and she immediately liked her.I don't know how close the relationship between the old and the young comes and goes.

Sometimes even so good that even her granddaughter and granddaughter-in-law are a little jealous.

"How is Your Highness?" Entering the flower hall, Yingpan walked over with a smile, "I'm here again!"

"I've become the general's wife, and you're still blah." Princess Yiguang smiled and beckoned her to sit down, "When you come, pour tea yourself."

Ying Pan poured tea and said with a smile, "Your Highness is joking again."

In addition to being the eldest princess, Princess Yiguang is also a super general.Yingpan doesn't even have Haoming now, so how dare she call herself a general's wife in front of her?
The two chatted happily for a while, and Yingpan frowned.

"Your Highness, I wonder if you know Qian Shangshu from the Ministry of Household Affairs?"

"Qian Liang?" Princess Yiguang looked at her suspiciously, "What's wrong with him?"

Yingpan then told about Ren Ning's visit to Qian Liang's mansion yesterday.

She was a little worried: "Yun Chui has an old saying that the friendship is shallow but not deep. Xianggong has only met Qian Shangshu once or twice, and he even talked nonsense in front of him yesterday. What if..."

"So that's the case, don't worry." Princess Yiguang waved her hand, "Among the six ministers of the Central Committee, only Qian Liang and Fan Wen are the ones I have a better eye for, and the others are all cunning."

Yingpan heaved a sigh of relief, and soon his face became weird, and his gaze fell on the crested staff next to Princess Yiguang involuntarily.

She doubted her ears.

Fortunately, Qian Liang said, Fan Shangshu from the Ministry of Rites, you actually have a good eye for it?

If I remember correctly, wasn't he knocked unconscious by you in the Imperial Study Room some time ago?
Princess Yiguang seemed to understand Yingpan's meaning, and said with a smile: "Fan Wen and Qian Liang are not bad in nature, they are people who do practical things. It's just that Fan Wen is too pedantic, it's good to knock him occasionally."

Only then did Yingpan suddenly realize.

"As for Qian Liang, the reason why your husband came to him is probably because of Wei Junqian's instruction." Princess Yiguang patted Yingpan's hand comfortingly, "Don't worry."

"Although Qian Liang doesn't like Wei Junqian's son-in-law very much, he wouldn't deliberately make things difficult or even frame Ren Ning because he was from the Starfall Legion."

what?
Yingpan opened his mouth in astonishment, "General Wei is still Qian Shangshu's son-in-law?"

"Yes." Princess Yiguang nodded.

"More than 30 years ago, Wei Junqian was still a young boy, and his military rank was not as high as your family's Ren Ning is now. Miss Qian met him by chance, and fell in love at first sight. She insisted on marrying Wei Junqian."

"This is very good," the girl from the grassland cheered up, and immediately felt that the girl Qian who dared to love and hate was very suitable for her taste.

"It's easier said than done." Princess Yiguang glanced at her with a smile, "At that time, there was chaos inside and outside Yunchui."

"Inside, the princes were killed in Xingji City in order to sit on the dragon chair. Outside, except for the south, the entire Yunchui was attacked from three sides. Every day, a large number of good men rushed to the battlefield, and they never returned."

"At a time like this, it's inevitable for Qian Liang to be worried about marrying his daughter to Wei Junqian, a leader who can't see the future. He hurriedly asked someone to match his daughter, so that he could marry her off as soon as possible, so as to stop Miss Qian's thoughts. .”

"I see," Ying Pan nodded understandingly, she couldn't help stretching her neck, "Then what happened next?"

"Then one day, the Qian Mansion suddenly announced that the two were married." Princess Yiguang couldn't help showing a smile: "Actually, Wei Junqian took his girl back to Xingluo County secretly."

elopement!

Yingpan opened his eyes wide in surprise.

No wonder Qian Liang didn't like this son-in-law.

Cough!

Princess Yiguang coughed twice, "Fortunately, Wei Junqian worked hard and walked over step by step, and sat down in the position of the general of the legion, which is not insulting Miss Qian's infatuation."

Yingpan breathed a sigh of relief, she was suddenly curious: "Your Highness, this kind of thing should be very private, how did you know?"

Princess Yiguang's face suddenly became very strange, and she stretched out her half-withered hand to gently touch Yingpan's long black hair.

"Miss Qian and Qing'er have handed out handkerchiefs since they were young. That's why we know this."

"Qing'er, imperial concubine Qing?" Ying Pan asked.

"Yes." Princess Yiguang looked up in the direction of Miyagi, with an inexplicable expression, "Qing'er gave birth more than ten years ago. Miss Qian at that time, um, she was already a mother, and she specially came from Xingluo County Come over to the palace to help."

"I see." Ying Pan understood.
