Chapter 75
After the first month of the lunar year, Jiang Feng received the deed from Jigu Pavilion from Siqing, fearing that it would be too conspicuous, so he bought two more pawnshops and one Zhenbao Pavilion, a total of three properties, and even threw wine to celebrate.In the generation of old Jia Guogong Shen Zizhou, the descendants of the Shen family were not prosperous.Shen Zizhou is low-key by nature and rarely sees relatives.After the Shen and Ye families became in-laws, the Shen family and the Ye family had been in contact with each other for two years. Since Shen Huanhua passed away, the two families have not had much contact with each other.Something happened to Shen Jiangdong who was behind, and the Ye family couldn't avoid it in time, and since then they have cut off all contact.Therefore, Jiang Feng wanted to invite his good relatives and friends with wine, and there were not many people to post, only Mrs. Cheng Ping and a few nieces came over.

Jiang Feng was busy dealing with these matters, so he didn't pay much attention to the elders Wu and Fu.It turns out that Gu Heng goes south every spring to sell goods. This year, the business in Beijing is good, and Fu Linchuan is also in Beijing, so he doesn't plan to go south.

Who knew that Fu Linchuan overheard Yutang who was beside Yan Mowei talk, and persuaded Gu Heng to still go south to make his living.Fu Linchuan also said that he was not too old to move, and Wu Zhenying was still close to Gyeonggi, so don't let Gu Heng be restrained by himself, otherwise, he would not live in Gu's house.

Gu Liangfen was helpless after hearing this, and worried that it would not be safe for Yan Mowei to live in the imperial capital for too long.Although it is said that Yan Mowei was young when she left Beijing, but now that she is older and her appearance has changed a lot, people in the past may not recognize her.But where is there an impenetrable wall in the world, it is always in the imperial capital, if someone with a heart sees the clue, it is easy to cause accidents.So Gu Liangfen and his wife made a plan and set off for the south in mid-March.

Gu Liangfen was also worried that someone would still be staring at Fu Linchuan, and that once he left Beijing, Wu Zhenying would always look at the other side of the Tonghe River.If something happened to Fu Linchuan again, he needed someone to help him.After thinking about it again and again, he still asked Jiang Feng.After Jiang Feng found out that Gu Heng and his wife were going south, he told Si Qing directly, and Si Qing said, "Please tell my brother, just let him rest assured, Uncle Fu has me here, no problem." He also told Jiang Feng some words.

Jiang Feng got Si Qing's words, came to see Gu Heng and his wife, told them to go south without worry, and smiled back at Yan Mowei: "It just so happens that you have a birthday, and when it's your birthday, you will go south. This is for your birthday celebration." The gift, it's mine, and it's on my behalf. Don't take my gift too lightly."

Yan Mowei said, "How can I accept your gift?"

Gu Liangfen came out and said with a smile: "It doesn't make sense! Mrs. Shen passed the gift on her behalf. We should thank Mrs. Shen for being the gift. How can we accept Mrs. Shen's gift again? Siqing's calculations are really incomplete."

Yan Mowei said angrily, "Aren't you feeling bad if you don't insult your sister?" He thanked Jiang Feng.

Just as he was talking, Fu Linchuan came back from Wu Zhenying's place. Everyone saw the ceremony and chatted a few gossips. When it came to the ceremony, Gu Liangfen suddenly said: "Uncle Fu doesn't know that Siqing's real birthday is March [-]th. Stranger day. I used to regard the [-]th as her birthday."

Fu Linchuan laughed and said, "How do I know when her birthday is? The difference is not too much."

Everyone talked for a while, Jiang Feng wanted to leave, and Gu Heng and his wife sent Jiang Feng out.

When Jiang Feng returned home, the guard was fine, so he took care of a few things about the Shen family's farm.Shen Jiangdong came back early that day, and the two of them talked about the gift for the Qianqiu Festival when they were eating. Jiang Feng said: "It turns out that His Royal Highness and Miss Yan's birthday are on the same day. I only found out yesterday. Since you mentioned it today, you should do it as soon as possible." There is not enough time to buy it.”

Shen Jiangdong said: "I heard from the people in the Ministry of Rites that when the empress became an imperial concubine, first she did not show the filial piety of the empress dowager, and later the empress remained silent. Counting it, it has not passed a thousand autumn festival. What does your majesty mean this year?" It needs to be done in a lively manner, the queen's illness and the imperial concubine's illness before, take advantage of this Qianqiu Festival, and they will all rush to it."

Jiang Feng said: "I know today why His Highness doesn't care about this matter."

"Why?" Shen Jiangdong asked.

Jiang Feng said: "I heard what Mr. Fu said today. Before His Royal Highness returned to Beijing, he always regarded March [-]th as his birthday. March [-]th was originally Ye Jiaji's birthday. His Highness was impatient with Ye Home, naturally it doesn’t work in my heart.”

Shen Jiangdong said: "So that's the case. According to me..." After thinking about it, he found it inappropriate, and swallowed the words back.

"You want to say that His Highness doesn't want to make a big fuss," Jiang Feng said for him, "No matter how lively it is, in the end it is His Highness who worries about it."

Shen Jiangdong said with a smile: "The people in the Ministry of Rites haven't held the Qianqiu Festival for a long time - the Empress Dowager was there at that time, so you can't go over there. Now that the Empress Dowager is gone, the Ministry of Rites doesn't know what to do this year, but it happens that there is chaos inside, His Majesty is not in the mood to pay attention to this."

"What's the mess in the court?" Jiang Feng was puzzled, "It can't be about Duan Wang?"

Shen Jiangdong said: "Who says it's not? There are people below who participated in the performance of King Duan's arrogance, defying the will of the East Palace and Ding'an Noble Concubine to open the inner city without authorization. There is also the Imperial Student Union named the Queen who fell ill on the night, the imperial student was outside the imperial city. Assembling and impeaching Elder Fan Ge, the result was suppressed and humiliated by the imperial guards of Habayashi Guards——Fan Ziran can’t command Habayashi Guards, so King Duan must be behind it.”

Jiang Feng recalled the situation that day, and said softly: "At that time, there was a lot of trouble, and Mr. Fan Ge couldn't handle it. Indeed, it was King Duan who asked Tang Peng to take Yu Linwei to help Mr. Fan Ge. But Tang Peng dared to go , it was Cheng Yingzhou who nodded. Cheng Yingzhou dared to nod because His Royal Highness the Queen meant it."

"I know," Shen Jiangdong said, "Who owns the Jingwei, those Tai students don't know, but King Duan knows it well."

Jiang Feng shook his head, "Prince Duan thought the queen was unconscious, and Tang Peng took the order after Tang Peng was behind. I saw that Prince Duan was very surprised."

Shen Jiangdong sneered, "Grand Concubine Ding'an is also really powerful, hitting a snake seven inches."

"What do we do now? What does Your Majesty mean?"

"Your Majesty will naturally defend King Duan, but the more His Majesty defends, the more violent the group of people who impeached King Duan will become. King Duan has always kept a low profile, but now they have fallen into a big trap, and they will not let go easily."

Jiang Feng asked, "Where's Tang Peng? Can those who impeach King Duan let him go?"

"He has somehow become King Duan's man," Shen Jiangdong said helplessly, "Your Majesty means to let him go to Xishan Camp to avoid the limelight. After all, everyone thinks he is like King Duan's man when he goes to Xishan Camp."

Jiang Feng sneered and said, "Wang Duan has been a little listless lately, why doesn't he have any strength to fight back?"

"That's not all due to you," Shen Jiangdong said with a smile, "You let King Duan know that he was a victim of the Anping County King's matter, and was put together by the little empress and the queen, so naturally you dare not act rashly."

Jiang Feng pondered and said, "How dare Han Shoushen come to the Imperial Capital? I haven't found out yet. If Han Shoushen hadn't held Eleven Lord hostage, how could Prince Duan have easily let go of the people who were brought back to the capital by King Anping County? No way, he and Zhonggong Yu had been killed before." Eleventh Lord is a conscientious man, knowing how to protect the middle palace."

"Check slowly, I'm afraid Dingfan still has internal support in the capital." Shen Jiangdong stood up and closed the windows one by one, "You have to be careful yourself."

Jiang Feng said: "I will be more careful."

After Shen Jiangdong closed the window, he lit the lamp himself, put a copper screen in front of the lamp stand, brought it to the table and put it down: "I don't think Chaoli will let me go to the front line again, I probably have to go to Jiangzuo, I was in Jiangzuo before. The matter of Zuo Zha is not over."

Jiang Feng lost his mind for a while, "What do you think of Zhejiang Governor Yao Yuantu?"

Shen Jiangdong thought for a while and said, "Smart."

"anything else?"

"It's okay for me..."

Jiang Feng said: "You also heard that day, there is a relationship between him and Mr. Fu back then."

"Although he is He Shizhi's protégé, he doesn't really listen to He Shizhi's words," Shen Jiang said, "Would he have helped old Mr. Fu get out of the case?"

Jiang Feng said: "From what His Highness said, it should be like this. As for how much it helped, it's hard to say."

"No wonder Yao Yuantu is at odds with his clan." Shen Jiang said.

After hearing this, Jiang Feng sighed, "For Yu Yunhe's case, which of the Jiangzuo scholars are at peace with their clan?"

Shen Jiangdong said: "I know, you are worried that the weaving bureau and ship tax in Zhejiang will be involved with the inner court in the future, and Yao Yuantu will be very dangerous at that time, and you should not get involved with him. But if I don't go to the Jiangzuo matter, It's hard to guarantee that Yao Yuantu and He Shizhi are colluding and plotting other things."

"You just said that Yao Yuantu doesn't listen to the He family very much," Jiang Feng said, "What is he planning?"

Shen Jiangdong shook his head, "He doesn't listen to the He family very much, but once he is involved, the He family is still his backer. As for the He family's plot, it will naturally start from the inner court."

Jiang Feng was in a daze, and suddenly said, "I don't think my elder brother is very smart."

Shen Jiangdong hurriedly said: "What are you talking about?"

Jiang Feng realized that he had lost his composure, "I'm distracted, nonsense." After finishing speaking, he said, "What else do you have to do at night? I'm going to go to Jigu Pavilion for a while."

Shen Jiangdong suddenly asked: "What are you looking for?"

"Does Han Shoushen have an internal response in Beijing?" Jiang Feng got up and took a cloak, "There is also the matter of Chen Nanfei back then."

Shen Jiangdong said: "Chen Nanfei's skills are too good, it's really a serious problem."

Jiang Feng said: "Chen Nanfei is so afraid of death, he will not act rashly. It is said that in the past year, the gates have been extremely tight, and he is afraid that the spies from Dingfan will be let in. If Dingfan can't let the spies in, it's a lot of claws. Extremely. I stayed in Xinjian for a long time and was suspected by the officers and soldiers. How did Han Shoushen sneak into Zhili with so many people? It’s really strange.”

Shen Jiangdong said: "There is only one possibility. Before this, the dispute between Dingfan's heirs and concubines had deteriorated. Han Shoushen could not get the military power, so he had already tried to find another way to infiltrate the north, trying to make achievements in the secret espionage and attract Dingfan's attention." Treat each other differently. Or maybe he and his father are about to tear each other apart, and you see that Dingfan has no response when he disappears."

Jiang Feng suddenly said: "Princess Xianju is gone, isn't there no reaction from the court?"

Shen Jiangdong sighed after hearing this, "The fourth son has a bad temper and bad life."

Jigu Pavilion is located diagonally across from Zangchun Building on Wazi Street. Besides the main entrance, there is also a back entrance.Jiang Feng took over the government army guards, and he didn't often go to the Yamen of the three guards of the government army. He usually only went to Jigu Pavilion to see the dark lines.Lu Chu's family name is Bai, and others call her "Miss Bai" or "Mr. Bai".For the convenience of walking, there are multiple exits from Jigu Pavilion.

Jiang Feng came to Jigu Pavilion that evening, and Lu Chu had already had dinner. Seeing Jiang Feng coming, he greeted Jiang Feng and said, "Mrs. Uncle is here." After speaking, he laughed, "I can't change it. Let's call him Mrs. Uncle."

It turned out that Lu Chu was low-key by nature, not very talkative, few people knew her, and her family was not from Dijing, so Siqing felt relieved to put her outside to open a shop.Jiang Feng and her went upstairs, and the upstairs was clean and tidy.Na Lu Chuxin wrote a manuscript and threw it on a few cases. Jiang Feng picked it up and saw that "the Han Garden is sporadic and limited, and the Sui embankment is endlessly embellished. The career of Sanchun pays Dongfeng, and the moon and plum blossoms are a dream."

When Lu first saw her reading, he forced a smile and said, "I can't write Xiatie."

Jiang Feng smiled, "I'm very limited in this, I just feel that the momentum is very strong." Then asked, "What do you say about the follower?"

Lu Chu said: "There's nothing to talk about. It's about the girl Shuze. I'm sorting out the sevens and eights I collected, and I can sort it out in two days."
