Yongzheng and I refreshed the tablet together

Ms. Li was wearing a willow-yellow palace dress with the Chinese characters "福" embroidered on it. It was bright and noble. Even though there were two nuns following behind her, she still raised her chin slightly.

Seeing Jiang Ying, Mrs. Li smiled and nodded, then turned to look at the two nuns: "This is Mrs. Jiang. Didn't Empress De Fei invite her to go with her? In terms of favor, I am not as far away as Sister Jiang. Empress Dowager If I only summon my concubine, I’m afraid my sister will be jealous of me and act like a spoiled brat."

The nuns smiled and said, "Ms. De Fei just wants to tell you a few words alone. Next time you are free, please invite Jiang Zifeng and Fujin to go with you."

Jiang Ying hurriedly saluted and said, "Sister, you're kidding me. We know that your Majesty loves us, and we don't dare to make trouble with you over a trivial matter."

Seeing Mrs. Li smiling at her and walking away, Jiang Ying felt more clearly that she had finally become a "big mountain" and would not be drawn into the struggle by all the parties above.

Now she is someone who needs to fight head-on with others.

Although it is tiring, it is better than being coaxed into having a little say.

"Ke Qi, you asked Xiao Caizi to inquire at home, why was Li Fujin summoned to the palace in such a hurry?"

After telling Ke Qi, Jiang Ying walked to the second door to where the carriage was sitting. The little eunuch from her yard had already come out in advance to prepare the carriage and was waiting here.

Half an hour later, I lived in the outer city, far away.

Jiang Mowan, who was having tea with some friends on the first floor, suddenly stood up, said hello to the people next to him, and walked downstairs.

A man of similar age next to him looked down, smiled and joked with his companion: "Who is here? Brother Huaiyuan is so active."

The middle-aged man wearing a sapphire blue gown next to him was high-spirited. He was on the list of Jinke. No matter what happens in the future, he is a first-class proud man: "Youjie, don't you know that he was the only one who was personally appointed by the emperor some time ago? That Xi Fujin from the Fourth Master’s house?”

"Ginger?" The man pondered for a few words, then clapped his hands and said, "Yes, I heard that the fourth master's Jiang Fujin was a heroine. The fourth master was seriously ill with smallpox, but she stayed by her side to take care of a child. Duo Yue. Her surname is also Jiang, and she has the same surname as Brother Jiang. Could it be that she is from the same family?"

Now everyone else laughed and said, "More than just my family? Are they brothers and sisters?"

Just as he was talking, several people near the window saw the pale curtains of the carriage downstairs being opened by green jade hands, revealing a stunning face that could be said to be alluring.

A few people took one look and didn't even dare to take a second look, as if they saw the fairy from the heavenly palace in a trance.

Jiang Mowan stood on the right side of the carriage and asked, "Why did you come out?"

Fourth Master just doesn’t care?
Jiang Ying: What kind of macho statement is this?

The carriage was quite spacious, so she opened the curtain directly and let Jiang Mowan get up and sit.

Jiang Mowang saw the little maid sitting inside, so he put one hand on the pillar of the car and went in.

"Tell me what you have to say." He sat at the door of the car and said coldly.

Jiang Ying: "I still want to find my father."

Jiang Mowan asked directly: "What do you want from dad?"

"I..." Jiang Ying paused and said, "Fourth Master has something he wants to ask father to do."

After hearing this, Jiang Mowan didn't want to ask any more questions. In fact, he still wanted to ask, why did you go to me first when you were looking for your father?
Noticing that his sister seemed to have shining bright eyes, Jiang Mowang didn't feel so disgusted in his heart. He opened the corner of the car curtain and said, "Go to Jinyang Guanyi."

Officials who come to Beijing to report on their duties can stay in the inns provided by the court, but this does not include local officials below the fourth rank. In other words, except for the governors of various prefectures who come to Beijing to report on their duties and have a place to live, the following people need to find their own place. .

Jinyang Huiguan Inn is such an inn located in the west of the city, and its hardware facilities are the best in all aspects. Originally, a seventh-grade official like Jiang Que could not stay there, but before he came to Beijing, his daughter was in front of the emperor. It is already known to the upper echelons of Beijing that they both have a good reputation.

Therefore, as soon as Jiang Que came to Beijing and reported to the Ministry of Personnel, Jinyang Guanyi had already arranged a room for him.

It's been more than half a month since I moved in, but I haven't been summoned yet. Rumors have gradually spread inside and outside the inn. They all say that the emperor has taken a high look at Jiang Bianfujin because he personally served the Fourth Master regardless of danger. However, this does not mean that he will be high-minded. Look at her father.

The rumors became more obvious after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the people who said these things didn't even avoid Jiang Que.

As soon as Jiang Que came back from meeting friends outside, a clerk came out of the horse shed, blocked Jiang Que's path and said without looking at him: "Master Jiang, Guan Yi asked me to inform you that the governor of Yangzhou is coming to Beijing to see you this afternoon. You have to arrange for the house to come out in advance, and it’s convenient for you to take care of everything.”

The clerk's demeanor revealed a careless and obvious arrogance. Jiang Que didn't take it to heart and just said: "Okay, I will take out everything in a moment."

He is a sincere person and doesn't care about these things at all. His luggage is just a small package that he can just take out when he returns home.

Guan Yi came out at this time and said to Jiang Que who was carrying a small bundle: "Master Jiang, I'm really sorry, otherwise I wouldn't be able to let you go."

Jiang Que smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, you're welcome." Gong Gongquan turned around and left.

Liu Guanyi smiled politely on his face, but he stood there without moving. Zhang Guanyi and several adults came in after greetings. They both greeted each other politely. The adults left, and Zhang Guanyi walked over. Liu Guanyi asked from his side: "Did you drive County Magistrate Jiang away?"

"Ah," Liu Guanyi patted his clothes, "It's a good day today."

Seeing Zhang Guanyi looking at him with disapproval, Liu Guanyi said: "He shouldn't have entered Jinyang Posthouse in the first place. Letting him stay here for so many days is already a big advantage."

Zhang Guanyi said: "Didn't you hear Eunuch Ge in the garden say that Jiang Que's daughter was promoted to Fujin so smoothly because of her father's relationship? The emperor knew about Lord Jiang and praised him as a good official."

Eunuch Ge is a small supervisor in the garden. Cats are like cats and mice are like rats. No matter how small the official is, there are people who want to fawn over him.

Liu Guanyi said indifferently: "If you don't look at how many seventh-grade officials there are in the capital city alone, the emperor doesn't know more than just the few in the Hanlin Academy? Not to mention that he is just a sesame official in a remote small county. I'm just talking about it. It’s just a sentence, it’s because Long Live Master has a good memory, so don’t take it too seriously.”

"Besides, his daughter, Fang Fujin, who became the prince, didn't even come to see him."

Before he finished speaking, a helper trotted in from outside and replied: "Sir, just now I saw the carriage from the Fourth Master's house coming from a distance. When I was approaching the door of the inn, I picked up the one who just left on foot. Mr. Jiang will leave.”

The calmness on Liu Guanyi's face disappeared for a moment, and he asked: "Are you sure?"

Bang Xian replied: "To be sure, it's the carriage from the fourth master's house."

Zhang Guanyi was stumped: "What if I raised him for nothing for a few days? It didn't cost us any money. He is also the father-in-law of the prince's elder brother."

Liu Guanyi couldn't hide his panic. His name sounded loud, but he was actually just a handyman for adults. If Master Jiang's daughter remembers this...

"I shouldn't live here either." In the car, Jiang Que said calmly to his children.

Jiang Ying was furious: "Is there anything that should or should not be done? Shouldn't Guanyi provide accommodation for officials?"

Looking at such a sister, Jiang Mowan always felt that although she was a bit mindless, she was quite cute. He explained: "It has always been a rule that the inns in the capital only provide accommodation for fourth-rank officials who come to Beijing from other places."

Officials can also live in the off-season, but there are only two types of accommodation, one is where they pay for their own accommodation, and the other is where their father has a "backstage".

Jiang Ying was still very angry: "That's just a traditional rule. Could it be that the imperial court has explicitly stipulated that these post stations will not provide services to officials entering Beijing below the fourth rank?"

Besides, if you want to drive people out and find a place to live, it is still an agency under the imperial court. As for doing it so stingy, right?
Jiang Mo smiled and said to his father: "Dad, look, it's different when someone supports you. How could my little sister dare to say such nonsense before?"

Jiang Ying felt something in his heart and said guiltily: "Then do you think what I said makes sense?"

Don't try to figure out that she is no longer her original self.

Jiang Mowang felt even more amused and nodded: "What you said makes sense, but who listens?"

When Jiang Mowang was very young, he liked to tease his sister like this. However, as he got older, his sister became more and more strict. Even saying a word to him seemed to be over the rules. The relationship between the brother and sister was only Gradually became distant.

Looking at the bickering children, the smile on Jiang Que's lips did not fade.

"Baby, you came out to find your father alone, but what's the matter?"

Jiang Ying asked Ke Qi to go outside and talk to the coachman to find a good inn in the inner city for his father to settle down. He heard that the fourth master said that the emperor would not live in Changchun Garden outside the city after the Mid-Autumn Festival. His father lived in the inner city. If there is any news from the palace or the official department, it will be convenient to go back and forth.

There were only a few inns in the inner city, but Ke Qi came in and said, "Brother the coachman said it would be better to go to Lanfuju. The food there is all from Shanxi, and it's only two or three alleys away from our house."

Jiang Ying thought of the empty scene outside Fourth Master's house and calculated in his mind that the distance between these two or three alleys was at least four or five miles, but they were indeed very close.

Jiang Ying nodded in agreement.

Jiang Que, who just said no, shook his head and said, "You kid, why are you more willful than at home? If this matter is known to Fourth Master, it will cause him to become alienated from you."

Jiang Que didn't want to use his daughter to promote his official position. He only had one son and one daughter under his knees. His daughter was sent to the palace to run for election as a last resort, and she was selected as if by luck. He didn't ask for anything but that his daughter could be in the prince's palace. A peaceful life in the backyard of a deep house.

Although it was unexpected to be able to get along with Fu Jin now, Jiang Que didn't expect anything more. He only hoped that his daughter could get along well with Si Age.

Jiang Ying shook his head: "Fourth Master is a good person, and he will not alienate me because of such a trivial matter. Dad, you don't know, it was Fourth Master who asked me to come to you when I went out today."
