Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 381
Standing in front of Zhulou, Fang Yiai's thoughts were flying, carefully weighing the pros and cons of meeting Qin Jingniang.

"This time I was ordered to leave Beijing, Wan Sui did not make a clear statement about Jing Niang's marriage. If we meet rashly, I am afraid that Marshal Qin will be hated by his grandson Wuji again."

"Long live yesterday ordered me to leave Beijing today. I will meet Jingniang later. How can I say goodbye?"

"It's better to leave the city quietly, lest one more person cry."

Fang Yiai paced back and forth, talking to herself, seeing Bai Jian frowned, and complaining secretly for the little brother, "Love between children is really a fatal thing, thanks to the fact that our family has never had it before."

"Marshal Qin slapped Jingniang before, obviously out of consideration for the overall situation of Fang and Qin's family. If I serve as the county magistrate of Meiwu County, if Wansui suspects me because of my marriage, it may be counterproductive."

Thinking of the key point, Fang Yiai turned hard and said to Bai Jian: "Brother, just go outside the door and say that I haven't woken up yet, and tell Jing Niang to go home first, and I will visit in the afternoon."

"Brother, you're going to leave Beijing on orders later, isn't it good to lie to people like this?" Bai Jian scratched her head and said embarrassingly.

Fang Yiai sighed, "I have a problem since I was a child, I don't want to see women cry, my brother should treat it as a white lie."

"Cut, if you hadn't caused trouble in the Qin Mansion before, how could the girl be so infatuated, you, sometimes you are not like a man in our family!"

Bai Jian laughed and cursed, but she was not idle, she walked out of the back garden quickly, and according to what Fang Yiai said, Qin Jingniang was coaxed to go back to the mansion first.

After dismissing Bai Jian, Fang Yiai looked up at the second floor of Zhulou, her eyes flashed sadly, and then went to the front yard with a long sigh to make some salutes.

When the drizzle just stopped, Qin Jingniang was only wearing a thin shirt, standing outside the door crying with pear blossoms in the rain, no wonder Fang Yiai dared not go out to see each other, even a "hard-hearted" "man" like Bai Jian would see it Can't help feeling distressed.

"Miss Qin, Zhuangyuan Lang hasn't woken up yet, he said he wants you to go back first, and you should visit the Qin Mansion in the afternoon." Bai Jian spoke in a hesitant manner, and her eyes flickered even more.

Qin Jingniang wiped away her tears, looked at Bai Jian carefully, and asked curiously, "The manager lived in the Zhuangyuan Mansion last night?"

"Our family was ordered to give brocade last night, but it was raining lightly and we didn't go back." Bai Jian faltered a few words, said goodbye to Qin Jingniang, hurriedly ran into the mansion, stood behind the gate of the mansion and secretly spit: "Fang Jun, little Baby, you actually told our family to lie, although our family has said it on weekdays, but Qin Jingniang is old enough to be our daughter, so there is no reason for the elders to deceive the younger."

Qin Jingniang stared blankly at the mansion for a while, then turned around with tears in her eyes, and left the majestic Zhuangyuan mansion.

After tidying up the salute, Fang Yiai put the official seal and documents close to her body, and the three chapters of white paper that Li Shimin rewarded earlier were wrapped by him on the left and right, and simply put them in the middle of the belt.

After doing all this, Fang Yiai looked around the bedroom and sighed softly, "I don't know when I will be able to return to Chang'an, Meiwu County probably prepared a coffin for me long ago, right?"

Li Lizhi and Li Shu woke up early in the morning, but they couldn't find their husband. The two sisters looked at each other, came to the bedroom with shame and joy, and found Fang Yiai who was thinking deeply.

"Brother Jun'er, are you leaving now?" Gao Yang bit his lips with tears in his eyes, revealing his reluctance.

Li Lizhi lightly rubbed her jade fingers, but the circles of her eyes were flushed, "Brother, are you leaving now?"

"You two ladies." Seeing that the beautiful woman was about to cry, Fang Yi felt sorry for her, and hurriedly got up and said, "Long live yesterday ordered me to leave Beijing to take office today, but I have to leave now, otherwise I won't be able to make it to the future before dark." Post station, what should I do if I was caught by a wolf when I arrived late."

"Wolf? Brother Jun'er, are there any wolves on the way to Henan Road?" Gao Yang's beautiful eyes were full of worry, obviously frightened by Fang Yiai's joke.

Li Lizhi spat softly, "Shu'er, don't listen to my brother's nonsense. He also met a pack of wolves in Taibai Mountain before. Thirty or forty wolves can't do anything to him. My brother is just joking."

Li Lizhi's words eased some of the dignified atmosphere of the upcoming parting. After the three talked for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Fang Yiai asked the servant to prepare the horse and pack the bags, and planned to go to the Fangfu to bid farewell to his parents. Leave Beijing as soon as possible so as not to be in vain.

Walking out of the mansion, after seeing off the reluctant Li Lizhi and Bai Jian who had been exhorting thousands of people, Fang Yiai took the reins and walked side by side with Gao Yang towards the house. Show all the love.

Fang Xuanling and Mrs. Lu received an order from Tang Taizong last night, knowing that their son was going to leave Beijing this morning, they were so anxious that they stayed up all night. Fang Yiai who came to say goodbye.

When I came to Fangfu, I saw my parents waiting outside the door, Fang Yiai's eyes turned red, and after saying goodbye to her parents for a while, she turned to Gao Yang and said, "Shu'er, when Brother Jun'er is not in Chang'an, You must take good care of your parents, okay?"

"Okay, Shu'er promises Brother Jun'er that he will serve his father-in-law and mother-in-law well." Gao Yang was about to burst into tears, his tone seemed to be a little whimpering, and he said with grief.

Fang Xuanling has always been serious, seeing his son and daughter-in-law reluctant to leave, cleared his throat, and said, "Ai'er, you must make every effort to go to Meiwu County this time, and don't come back if you can't cure the disaster."

Fang Yi's blunt tone made Fang Yi startled, he looked at his father, but saw that the prime minister's eyes were red, and only then did he know the true emotion in Yan Qin's heart.

"It's getting late, the child has to leave Beijing earlier, parents, Shu'er, take care." Fang Yiai let go of Gao Yang's hand cruelly, turned around and stepped on the carved saddle, and urged the horses again and again. glance.

"Ai'er, be careful all the way, remember to write a letter from home, and report that you are safe."

"Brother Jun'er, I will serve my father-in-law and mother-in-law well, so you can handle your official duties with peace of mind."

"Stinky boy, you don't even turn your head, the wind really blows my eyes."

Walking out of Chang'an City all the way, letting everyone in the market hand in their hands, Fang Yiai just returned the gift silently, and she didn't have the high-spirited look she had before.

After walking ten miles outside Chang'an City, Fang Yiai sat on the horse and looked far away. From a distance, he saw figures floating in the long pavilion. He knew that Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou had come to practice, so he urged the horses and whipped to arrive. Before the pavilion.

Ma Zhou and Wei Zheng were dressed in casual clothes, and there were several senior officials standing beside them, without exception, they were all important courtiers.

"Brother Ma, Uncle Wei, Consort Chai, and Uncle Du are here too!"

Fang Yiai rolled over, stepped up to the long pavilion, bowed to Ma Zhou, Chai Shao and others, and bowed deeply to Du Ruhui.

"Yi love, just after we came down to court, we heard the news from Bai Jian that you were leaving the capital. Why don't you change into your casual clothes in a hurry and rush to the pavilion to practice."

Fang Yiai nodded with a smile, "Thank you all uncles and elder brothers for going out of the city, I must drink this practice wine."

"Zhuangyuan Lang, Henan Province is no different than other prefectures and counties. Most of the officials under its jurisdiction are from the Guanlongmen Clan. This time I am afraid that I will suffer some hardships."

"My love is both civil and military, this time going to Henan Road is just a sharpening, but why didn't you bring any entourage with you on this trip?"

Hearing Wei Zheng's words, Fang Yiai smiled awkwardly, and said in a low voice, "Long live, order me to leave Beijing alone, and the entourage will be spared."

Du Ruhui nodded and said: "Yi Ai, you must always be on guard when you go to Henan Road this time. Other provinces are no better than Chang'an. You have to use your heart to see clearly whether it's a human or a ghost."

"Thank you for your teacher's teaching, and the students will keep it in their hearts." Fang Yiai clapped his hands together, drank the wine, and said goodbye to Du Ruhui and the others in a hurry, before embarking on the road to Henan Road.

Du Ruhui and the others stood in the long pavilion and waited until Fang Yiai's figure disappeared, and then walked down the long pavilion one after another.

"If Yi Ai can sharpen her mind this time, she will be a pillar of talent when she comes back."

"Henan Dao is as quiet as a pool of stagnant water. The Guanlongmen faction has a big tree with deep roots there. This time, if you go to Meiwu County to serve as the county magistrate, you will inevitably be targeted."

"That's right, the stagnant water must be stirred up by Zhuangyuan Lang. If another Jinshi goes there, I'm afraid he will die in the flood that dredged the river again?"

Thinking of the first two Meiwu county magistrates who died in office, they all sighed softly and returned to Chang'an with their thoughts in mind.

Gently urging the horses, Fang Yiai walked on the wide official road, looked at the lush scenery around, and said with a wry smile: "I don't know when I will be able to return to Chang'an!"

After walking forward for about half an hour, Fang Yiai turned to the fork road leading to Henan Road, and after walking for a while, he came across a small tea stall.

"Drinking tea? I'm not thirsty, let's hurry up." Fang Yiai muttered, and before he passed the tea stand, a tone that was both familiar and unfamiliar sounded in his ears.

"Second brother, are you in such a hurry? Did you not see Brother Yu?"

Fang Yiai looked back, but saw a person in white sitting in front of the tea stand, holding a cup of tea and looking at herself with a smile.

"Brother!" Fang Yiai took a closer look, and saw that the person was not the elder brother Fang Yizhi whom he hadn't seen for a long time, but who could it be?
