Chapter 253

Changsha Prefecture,
In a row of stalls across the street from Chunshen Building, there is a middle-aged man who sells candied haws here all the year round. Because of this, basically before evening, his candied haws will be sold out. This is the case every day, and every day is a harvest of 130 coins.

But recently, it’s a bit special. The famous Jiang Clan Mingzhu seems to live in the opposite Chunshen Building. Every evening, he would come here to buy a bunch of candied haws. After a big beauty buys it, she will close the stall and go home.

As the evening approached, Old Man Liu, who was selling offal by the side, boiled a big pot of bone broth, and began to sit on a bench waiting for customers to come to his door.
"Brother Xu, you old man who eats candied haws doesn't really shine. Why does our dignified Miss Peining like it so much?"

At the stall in front of the middle-aged man, the candied gourds had long been sold out. At this moment, with his hands folded in his sleeves, he looked leisurely, waiting for the biggest customer to come to the stall before closing the stall and going home.

"What do you know? The taste is not good, and the Jiang family can take a fancy to it? Changsha Mansion sells candied haws all over the street, and her old man only comes to me. What does this mean? What? Could it be that you have a worse appetite than her old man?"

The old man Xu grinned, spat on the ground jokingly, and said:

"Damn! You're full of grown-ups, and you don't feel ashamed to call a girl who hasn't left the cabinet 'old man','"

Zhang Po, an old woman who sells meatloaf on the other side, also echoed with a smile:

"That is to say, I am so old, and I haven't seen you call me respectfully old man many times."

The middle-aged man shook his head and said:
"You two are jealous of me. Lord Jiang doesn't like you to eat your stuff, just like candied haws. But I, Lao Xu, make the best food in Changsha. I can't help it. I'm happy to call her an old man." , what's the matter?"

The three of them are all authentic local traders, speaking with a strong Changsha accent, you and I took advantage of free time to gag and joke.

In the past half a decade, Chunshen Building has been more solemn than any other place in Changsha Mansion. It is really because of the people of all kinds coming in and out from here, which makes people feel very unusual at a glance, which has also caused many The locals haven't come here for the tooth festival for half a decade. The atmosphere in the building is really too scary to enter.

A handsome woman dressed in men's clothing walked out of the building, and no matter who came in or out of the building, no matter who saw her, they would bow respectfully and salute.

The woman walked straight down the steps, came to the stall selling candied haws, and said with a smile:
"Old Xu, do you still have a string for me?"

The middle-aged man, who has been paying attention to the movement at the door, hastily stood up from his seat when he saw the woman coming out, and said with a warm smile:

"Keep it, keep it, how could it not be kept for your old man."

The man took out the hidden candied haws, and there were twelve of them, three more than he usually sold.
Jiang Peining reached out to take it, took out the money, and immediately ate it by the side of the road.

The middle-aged man just bowed his head and looked at the Jiang clan master eating candied haws with a happy expression on his face.
At this time, an equally attractive woman in purple clothes came along the street, she seemed to want to enter the Spring Tower, but when she saw Jiang Peining, she changed her route and walked straight towards this side.

"Executing Yu to greet Madam,"

Xu Manduo and the street vendors around him stared wide-eyed. They were all wondering, when did Lord Jiang, who has not yet left the cabinet, become his wife?Are you already married?No, everyone in Changsha Mansion should know about such a big event.

Jiang Peining chewed the hawthorn and said with a smile:
"Emissary Lan Dian, you are welcome. I haven't seen you for many days. What's the matter today?"

Lan Jieyu especially likes to talk to the future leader's wife in front of him. Firstly, the other party has no airs. Secondly, maybe because they are both women, the two have communicated several times in private, and the conversation is very harmonious.

Lan Jieyu gathered the sound into a line, which passed into Jiang Peining's ears:

"Tian Jieyu has been staring at the northern line these days. When I come back today, I have to report to the leader that the Tianci Mansion has indeed withdrawn its troops. Thinking about it now, I really feel a little incredible that a young princess can have such a big influence on the royal family. , It was unbelievable, I sent someone to follow me all the way, and found that Li Li personally led [-] elite troops towards Chang'an, while the other army was withdrawing to the north in an orderly manner. I don’t know what kind of excuse our emperor will use to give an explanation to the people of the world.”

Jiang Peining said in the same way: "The situation where everyone is happy naturally needs an excuse for everyone to be happy,"

Lan Jieyu nodded:
"Ma'am is right. By the way, there is news from the elder sister in Luoyang. It is about Deputy Mu. It seems that Deputy Mu found a ghost market in the mountains around Caizhou. It is a hidden mountain. In the small town, there are two ghost kings, one is from the Tianji Pavilion, the identity is unknown, and the other is the old pervert Wu Yi, the flower king among the Eight Evils of the Holy Gate,
Deputy Mu said that in the ghost market here, there is a thing called Dicui grass, which is only the size of a thumb, grows like a tree root, and looks inconspicuous, but inside However, there is pure spiritual energy in it. I heard that absorbing the spiritual energy from a ground extract grass is equivalent to several months of penance, and it needs to be exchanged for things, which cannot be bought with silver. What the eldest sister means is that since the turmoil in Shannan Road It has calmed down, and I want to ask Ding Dianshi to go there personally to find out how this kind of thing came about. If it really has such an effect, we Mingjiao should start early, after all, Tianji Pavilion is already one step ahead. "

After Jiang Peining listened, she showed great interest. Yingzhen once told her that she would go to Jiannan Road after the matter here, and she would go out anyway. Go to that ghost market to have a look. After all, he needs to stabilize his realm now. If that thing is really so useful, it would be good to find a way to get some.

"Brother Zhen and Envoy Ding Dian are both in the back garden, you go in, I will go back after eating this bunch of candied haws."

"Okay," Lan Jieyu resigned and left.

Perhaps because of the frequent dealings during this period, many middle-aged men only felt that the Jiang clan leader was approachable, and he didn't have the airs of a wealthy family at all, which also made him bolder when he spoke.
"Lord, why did that woman call you Mrs. Madam just now? When did you leave the cabinet? Why don't the people in Changsha know about it? You have to inform the big guy about such a big happy event. But the biggest happy event in Changsha Mansion."

After Jiang Peining finished eating the last candied haws, he smiled and said:
"Don't worry, the day I really want to get married, I will definitely let all the villagers in Changsha know."
