Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 22

Xueyan is also close to Qingqian, who looks gentle, so she curled her lips, "Miss Yu, please judge, our lady treats your medicine as snacks, and we only take a few sips when we are in the mood."

Yu Qingqian also saw that Jiang Jinyan had a good temper and was easy-going, so she became less restrained and smiled lightly, "Then you have to coax Miss Jiang well, if she loses her interest in taking medicine, it's not your fault ?”

Seeing that she was completely at a disadvantage, Xueyan stomped her feet anxiously, "I'll make the medicine!"

Yu Qingqian didn't expect that the girl next to Jiang Jinyan would dare to be so presumptuous, but she glanced at Jiang Jinyan, but she still had that smile on her face, thinking in her heart that she could treat a servant like this, it seems that Miss Jiang is indeed kind , I don’t know if it’s because people are kind and have been bullied.

Seeing her in a daze, Jiang Jinyan said with a slight smile, "I'm used to being impolite, don't be surprised by Ms. Yu."

Yu Qingqian hurriedly said: "Miss Jiang is really temperamental, and this maidservant has such a temper." As he spoke, he took out the small pillow and carefully felt his pulse.

Seeing her frowning and not speaking for a long time, Jiang Jinyan secretly wondered if her condition hadn't improved?
Yu Qingqian seemed to be a little hesitant, "At first I thought Miss's pulse was weak, it should be due to being too tired during this period, but now the virtual fire has disappeared...but she looks a bit cold...but it is vague after all. Pulse condition, what kind of cool thing did miss use?"

Yu Mo came in with the medicine at this time, just heard this, almost knocked over the medicine, the young lady's diet was for her and Xue Yan's purpose, young women should eat less cold food, let alone This is still autumn, how could it be because of eating?

Yu Mo hurriedly said after saluting: "Eating slaves is just for the sake of purpose, there will be no cold things, Miss Yu, is there any other possibility?"

Yu Qingqian also knows that body cold is not a trivial matter, and it may lead to infertility, but after all, Jiang Jinyan's pulse condition is only vague, she thought for a while and said: "It may also be because of some cool flowers or other objects, It’s not a serious loss for you to search for it these two days, and you found it early, so it’s not a problem.”

Yu Mo suddenly felt rejoicing, "Miss Yu's previous prescription was for virtual fire, and miss didn't drink much, so it won't be a collision, right?"

Yu Qingqian gasped when she said this, "It's a good thing that your lady doesn't like to drink this medicine, and she didn't drink it for a few days, so it's fine."

Jiang Jinyan frowned and didn't make a sound, feeling cold?I have been married for three years and have not conceived in my previous life. Is it because I have had the root cause of my body cold since then?

Seeing that Jiang Jinyan was silent, Yu Qingqian was afraid that she would be worried, so she hurriedly said, "Miss Jiang, don't worry, I'll prescribe a new prescription and just adjust it. It's easy for Miss Jiang to make up for it when she's young."

Yu Mo is not at ease, if someone does something wrong, no matter how hard they try, they will not be able to prevent others from doubling their plots.

Jiang Jinyan smiled slightly and said, "Miss Yu is in trouble again."

Yu Qingqian sat in front of the red sandalwood high school and finished prescribing the prescription. Thinking of Lu's mention of letting her go to Fang's house, she said with a smile: "It's okay, I just earned money for nothing. I will meet you tomorrow." Go to the general's mansion in person, the post has already been handed over."

Jiang Jinyan nodded, knowing that it was Mrs. Lu who told her, so he smiled and said, "Thank you very much."

Yu Qingqian hurriedly said no, then took her leave and left.

Seeing that there were no outsiders in the room, Yu Mo said worriedly: "Miss, look at this..." Yu Mo made up his mind to investigate thoroughly.

Jiang Jinyan knew what she meant, waved his hand and said, "I can't be sure what the reason is now, so don't say anything. If someone really did something, we missed the news, and instead urged her to come up with other methods. It's just that this person is hiding, and we are in the dark." Ming, he is really passive, so let's check it secretly."

It was only then that Yu Mo realized that he was being too careless. She didn't expect that the young lady would be so thoughtful now. She blushed a little. At first, she was not optimistic about Jiang Jinyan.

Jiang Jinyan asked again: "How is Brother Cheng?"

Only then did Yu Mo regain his expression, and forced a smile and said, "It's okay, Mother Fang said that he should let him rest well today, so that he won't be tired when he goes to the funeral tomorrow."

Jiang Jinyan nodded. Funerals are really tiring for children. She leaned on the plain white embroidered silver pillow and closed her eyes, "Is everyone on the other side of Yicui Pavilion all right now?"

Yu Mo said: "Aren't they all avoiding the limelight at this moment, I'm afraid that you will label them disrespectful again, Miss, and now they can't find fault."

Jiang Jinyan smiled, "Could it be possible to send someone to guard them to pick thorns?"

Yu Mo thought that Xueyan was always staring at the people in Yicui Pavilion, so he smiled and said: "Isn't that right, this girl Xueyan is watching closely, for fear that she won't be able to catch their fault."

Jiang Jinyan smiled and shook his head, both Wang Shi and Jiang Jinqian are people who can bear it, and they are not stupid, so it is natural to be good at this time to keep themselves.

But Xueyan is really... Although not as transparent as rain and ink, she is still clever, but her temperament is too straightforward. After all, she is young, and she needs to practice for a few more years. After all, she died early because of herself in the previous life. She should be allowed to live well.

Yu Mo said again: "Aunt Yung and the third miss seem to be sincere and sincere. Although they are not as perfect as Aunt Wang and the second miss, they seem to be true."

Jiang Jinyan could also guess what Aunt Yun was thinking. Her mother, Mrs. Fang, had always treated her well, and she didn't like to get entangled with Mrs. Wang, so now she could only hope that she could give her some peace.

"After all, they are honest people. When the mother's funeral is over, the people in Tingfenglou will sort it out too. Don't let Aunt Yun make things difficult."

"I'll go back to Mother Xu." Yu Mo naturally understood that this was also an opportunity to put on eyeliner, no matter how honest a person was, he had to look under his nose to be at ease.

Jiang Jinyan was tired after all, "I'll have to get up soon, I really don't need to sleep seriously, I'll just lie here, you can go down and rest too, let Xueyan also rest, and I'll fry it tomorrow morning That's the medicine."

Yu Mo looked at the night that had just darkened, and hurriedly adjusted the pillows and thin brocade mattresses on the couch for her, took the moon-white Ruyi pattern brocade quilt and covered her lightly, leaving another lamp Not so bright lights in the corner.

Seeing that Jiang Jinyan was fast asleep, he went out of the inner room and let Xueyan go to the ear room to rest, and fell asleep on his stomach at the table not far from the inner room for a while.

The next day, Jiang Jinyan got up very early, before dawn, but there was a lot of activity in the Hou's mansion, mourning from top to bottom, and a group of Taoist monks were reciting the Sutra of Rebirth, and everything was prepared Finally, Fang's coffin was carried out of the gate of the Hou Mansion in an extremely dignified manner according to Mrs. Hou's specifications.

Jiang Jinyan carried Jiang Jincheng who was also dressed in filial piety, followed Jiang Shiheng, and walked out of the city. When he got out of the city gate, he had to get in the car to go to the ancestral grave of his ancestral home in Dingzhou.

Because of the Fang family, there were quite a few dignitaries who set up sacrificial sheds along the way. The Fang family also waited on the road. The old lady did not come because of her illness. Jiang Shiheng, Jiang Jinyan and others greeted each other,

The sacrificial sheds of An Guo Gong's Mansion and Duan Wang Mansion are also particularly conspicuous. The funeral of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, which has a small reputation in Luoyang City, is completely worthy of the word "scenery".

Jiang Jinyan only glanced at Xu Junyan, but he didn't dare to look up. He didn't expect him to come. This An Guogong thought he valued this concubine, otherwise why would he allow him to come out to sacrifice on the day of the mistress's birthday.

Xu Junyan looked at her twice more. Although this girl was sad, she still had a determined face.

Jiang Shiheng and Jiang Shihong were thanking each family for the road sacrifices along the way, and only Xu Junyan came to the Anguo Duke's mansion, which was also the standard of the Guogong mansion.

Although Prince Duan's mansion only sent a housekeeper, it also gave him a lot of face. Although Prince Duan is an idle prince, he is a royal prince after all, and he has more face.

Jiang Shiheng expressed his gratitude to the adults of the various prefectures with a face of respect, and he even wanted to find an official status in his heart.

Because there were many mansions in the Road Festival, I thanked them one by one. It was already past noon when I was outside the city. The Jiang family was divided into two, some followed Jiang Shiheng to the funeral, and some followed Jiang Shihong back to the Marquis Mansion.

After all, the Hou Mansion had to be managed by people, not to mention that Jiang Shihong was still involved in government affairs, and Lu's body was too weak to travel far, so he had to leave a few capable stewards to follow, and he even gave Jiang Jinyan a lot of instructions before leaving.

The funeral master's servants were also a large group. After getting into the car, they went to Dingzhou along the official road.

Two days later, Fang's army returned triumphantly from Youzhou. This was the biggest victory so far during the Yongning period of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The [-] Northern Ye army retreated far to the southwest corner, and the envoys sent to negotiate peace also paid a very generous tribute. All the officials, civil and military, came down to the gate tower of Changxiamen to welcome them.

Outside Changxiamen, the old general Fang Zhengyuan, who was over fifty years old, was still unabated. He took his eldest son Fang Yanjing off his horse and knelt down on one knee. Long live my emperor, long live!"

This kneeling, Fang Jiajun fell to the ground together, shouting long live, the sound overwhelmed the din of gongs and drums, and the shock made the hearts of all civil and military officials unable to calm down for a long time.

Wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, Emperor Yongning waved to the city, "General Fang has worked hard, please hurry up!" Emperor Yongning glanced at Zheng Ying, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and said, "Read out the decree of the award."

Zheng Ying took a step forward, but looked at Wang Zhao at the side, who nodded slightly.

Emperor Yongning did not miss the expressions of Zheng Ying and Wang Zhao, his face was expressionless, but his fists were clenched.

Only then did Zheng Ying pick up the imperial decree and went to the front to read it out, and read it eloquently for a long time.

The rewards were indeed generous, but it was a trick that was promoted in secret. Fang Zhengyuan was promoted in rank and salary, and Fang Yanjing was granted the title of Marquis of Dingguo, but the military power was weakened a lot.

Wang Zhao looked at Fang Zhengyuan and his son with straight waists under the tower, and smiled disdainfully. After all, generals are generals, and they can be raised when they are not needed. Military power should not be made too comfortable for them.

Emperor Yongning also heard the profound meaning of the imperial decree, but he had no choice but to affix the jade seal. He looked at the man of Da Zhou who came back from the front line fighting the enemy bravely, and felt unspeakably depressed.

"My lord! What's wrong with you?!"
