Rank One Princess Douxian Wang: Phoenix Palace Brocade

Chapter 41
The next day was the day when Xu Jiatong and Xu Jiaqing went to Foyuan Pavilion to watch the night. Early in the morning, Bishui began to inspect the thin quilt and snacks that Xu Jiatong had brought.Because when you enter the cabinet, you can only have one maid to serve you in, and you will leave immediately after you are settled, so what you can bring is really limited.

According to the rules of the Xu family, daughters of the Xu family need to go to Foyuan Pavilion for a day and a night before they get married, praying for their ancestors, and also praying for success in their husband's family after marriage, which will also bring prosperity to their mother's family.

It stands to reason that Xu Jiatong has not yet reached the time to enter the Foyuan Pavilion, but the recruitment of the Tian family has already been decided.Even if she can't be married to princes, grandchildren, or high-ranking officials, she can still enter the palace and stay as a female official or court lady with her female popularity.Even if one's luck is bad, and one cannot even be a female official or maid of honor, according to the usual practice, the family will strike while the iron is hot and arrange the marriage as soon as possible.

Xu Jiaqing, Xu Xiaoxian and Zheng Shi, who are not on the roster of the Ministry of Rites, also have their own little calculations.In case Xu Jiatong failed to participate in the selection, it is very possible that Xu Jiaqing, as the only remaining legitimate daughter of the Xu family, will be the top one.If there was no such day, according to their intention, Xu Jiaqing would have to stay in the western capital to find someone else, and Xu Xiaozu would have to help her no matter what.

As soon as Xu Jiatong tidied herself up, Shuangxiu came to spread the word, saying that it was the porter who told her that Jinxiufang sent someone to invite her over.Seeing that it was still early, she didn't suspect him, and rushed over without even bringing the clear water.

When they arrived at Jinxiufang, Mrs. Duan was taken aback when she saw her, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Xu Jiatong was also taken aback: "Didn't Master send me a message?"

"Who passed it on?" Duan turned around and asked a few people who went out for a walk, everyone shook their heads, "Hurry up and go back, if someone made a mistake, or someone deliberately dismissed you."

Because Li's permission to communicate with Jinxiu Fang, Xu Jiatong was not surprised to hear the news of Shuangxiu.But after seeing Duan's reaction, she felt that something was wrong, so she hurried back to the ancestral house.

Turning the corner of the street, Xu Jiatong saw a familiar figure, but the clothes were much dirtier than when he first saw them, as if they hadn't been changed for many days.She stepped forward and called out, "Prince Wang, why are you here?"

This person was Wang Yansheng who ate her tea that day. When he suddenly heard someone calling him, Wang Yansheng was so startled that he almost jumped up: "It's Miss Xu? Why are you here?"

"The Xu residence is ahead, why, your servant hasn't come yet?" Xu Jiatong guessed as he looked at the dust all over his body.

Wang Yansheng scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I don't know if I met a thief on the road, and I'm really worried. I just found a place to stay in the temple these few days, and there's no one there."

"Have you seen the person you are looking for?" Xu Jiatong asked.

"I saw it, I saw it, but he pretended not to know me and let his guard drive me out." Wang Yansheng said angrily.

Guard?If the person he is looking for is Dai Yuanguan, and Dai Yuanguan's followers are bodyguards, and he is not an official, how can the people who guard him be called bodyguards?
"So you are an official?" Xu Jiatong asked tentatively.

Wang Yansheng shook his head: "Yes, no, there are not many organs that can control him. Oh, I won't talk anymore, when he asked people to drive me out, he said, if I talk nonsense, he will see you next time." I, just knock out my teeth, I can't afford to mess with him."

The person Wang Yansheng is looking for is Dai Yuanguan, this is just her guess, maybe she guessed wrong.Xu Jiatong looked at him, this person gave off a very clean feeling, she couldn't bear to see him in such a mess, she thought about arranging him to live temporarily, but she didn't have much money on hand.

"The young master is a man, I am inconvenient at home, I cannot invite the young master to live in the house for a short time. However, the concierge at home has two rooms at the bottom of the wall, but I don't know if the young master minds, it is better than staying in the temple. "Xu Jiatong was also very embarrassed, this was the only thing she could do.

Those two rooms are adjacent to the outer wall at the end of the back door of the ancestral house, and there is only one small door facing the back alley. In order to open the door for servants who clean and buy at dawn, another door is opened inside.Originally, the concierge's father and son lived there. Recently, the concierge's son was on a business trip, so one room was vacant.

When the Cao family was in charge, this porter was very important. When the Cao family was kicked out of the ancestral house, it became the porter for the servants to come and go.Fortunately, he is very popular, contented and happy, and lives at ease.After Xu Jiatong returned to the ancestral house, he also came to say hello, and hinted that if it was inconvenient for her to go out through the main entrance, she should just go through his side.

Wang Yansheng was open-minded, and nodded his head immediately: "Thanks to the girl, as long as there is a place to stay, let me stay for a few more days. If the girl goes to Xidu in the future, I will definitely do my best as a landlord."

"I'm going to the Western Capital soon." Xu Jiatong smiled, and the two exchanged a few more words of greeting. Xu Jiatong took him to the concierge and went back by himself.

Bi Shui was pacing left and right in the corridor, her hands shaking each other revealed her nervousness.Seeing Xu Jiatong approaching, she was overjoyed and said: "Master Duan, doesn't he know that the girl is going to watch the night tonight? He still asks the girl to go out at this time, what if something happens."

"You're in a hurry, what happened?" Xu Jiatong asked.

"Just now the third master asked the boy to send a post to Fang's house, and wanted to shake Master Fang to come to the mansion to talk about it in detail. The servant girl felt that this matter was strange. The third master probably didn't like this marriage, but as soon as he came back, he went to invite Fang. Lord. Besides, this is a marriage, and if we want to talk about it, it should be the third master who goes to Fang's house." Bi Shui said.

Finally, Xu Jiatong smiled and said, "What kind of person is Master Fang, you can already see the strangeness, how could he not? Since the third master is going to set up a stage to sing, we just need to watch and be careful."

"Slaves must be careful." Bi Shui felt relieved and helped her return to her room to rest.

After noon, after taking a nap for a while, Xu Jiaqing came, and behind her Dongxue and a few servants were still holding many things.

"It's just a day and a night, and you actually have to bring so many things." Xu Jiatong said with a smile. Xu Jiaqing has been raised since she was a child, and even a night can't be uncomfortable.

Xu Jiaqing didn't take it seriously, and said cheerfully: "Copying scriptures in the long night, not allowed to sleep, and not able to rest the next day, without bringing something, wouldn't it be boring? I thought that if I didn't go until the hour, I could only Let Dong Xue and Bi Shui help us get things. But if we go now, it doesn’t matter if there are a few more people to move, when the time comes, just let them get something if they feel like it.”

Xu Jiatong looked behind her, and in the distance there were actually a few servants carrying things, like go and a low table for playing chess, as well as tea sets, books and a few small boxes containing gadgets.

"You said it all, you have to copy the scriptures all day and night, how can you have the time to do this?" Xu Jiatong couldn't help laughing at her childish nature.

Xu Jiaqing smiled, beckoned one of the little maids to come over, opened the box with one hand, and raised her eyebrows playfully: "Fourth sister, look, what is this?"
