Wei Hanzhang said: "Yes, Uncle Gu accepted the order from the crown prince and his term has expired. He returned to the capital to report on his duties. I heard from Gu Yunran that Uncle Gu will stay in the capital as an official in the future."
"Really?" Wei Hanzhang was in a hurry to go out last time and didn't talk to Jiang in detail. Now when she heard that the Gu family was moving to the capital, she said with great joy, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll let your father go." Ask around."
The governor of Xuzhou is of the third rank, and it is common practice for the officials of the capital to be of the first rank. Even if the Gu family is transferred back to the capital at the same level, it is still a promotion.
A third-grade official, even in the capital, he is already a figure that cannot be underestimated.
You must know that Zhongyong Hou Weiping only holds the position of third-grade governor, and he still has a casual position without military power.
The governor is a high-ranking official in a border area and holds real power. Since he can be personally transferred back to the capital by His Highness the Crown Prince, he will definitely be highly valued...
Jiang thought about it carefully, and the final dissatisfaction with her daughter's marriage disappeared. The Gu family could come to the capital, and they had grown up together since childhood. There was no better marriage than this.
Thinking of this, Jiang was worried that her girl's reckless behavior today would displease the Gu family. After all, the eldest son's reputation was most important when he married a wife.
Her uneasiness completely disappeared on the second day.
Yesterday, the story of the ninth girl from the Zhongyong Hou Mansion hugging a prostitute and crying at the gate of Jiaofangsi spread throughout the capital overnight.
However, contrary to the concerns of the Wei family, when this matter was discussed in the streets, everyone praised Miss Wei Jiu as a good and kind girl.
Everyone knows that it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is more difficult to provide help in times of need, and Miss Wei Jiu’s move is the real help in times of need.
A sour scholar sighed: It's rare, it's rare, that the word "love" can be seen in a woman.
When some older people heard that this was a girl from the house of Marquis Zhongyong, they praised her for inheriting the style of her grandfather.
More than twenty years ago, the loyal and brave Marquis Weiping blocked a sword for His Majesty and went through **** for His Majesty. He was praised for his loyalty and bravery and was given the title.
Moreover, the teahouse proprietress hired a storyteller to compile the story into a book for guests to listen to. The title was "Who said women are inferior to men".
Wei Hanzhang's reputation for being affectionate and righteous resounded throughout the capital, and was known to all women and children.
Different from those good names, talented names, and virtuous names, her name is particularly rare.
What's even more strange is that yesterday she clearly didn't wear a hat. These rumors didn't describe her appearance at all, but she could describe what happened at the gate of the Jiaofang Si in a clear and concise manner, as if she had witnessed it with her own eyes.
When the news reached the Wei Mansion, Wei Hanzhang had just gotten up. Along with the news was a set of red coral heads and noodles sent by Mrs. Liu.
Zhongyong Hou Weiping also sent a delicate dagger suitable for women to play with, saying that it was reserved for the girl's family for self-defense.
This can be regarded as compensation for the man in charge of the prince's mansion reprimanding his granddaughter in public yesterday.
Jiang held a dagger inlaid with gems in his hand and said with a smile: "In all these years, your grandfather has never given anything to the female family members of the back house. This is his apology for scolding you last night."
"..." Wei Hanzhang felt awkward, but in this dynasty, one could not verbally express resentment towards the elders, so she could only accept it respectfully.
Overnight, all Jiang's worries disappeared, and she was so lucky that she repeatedly praised her little daughter as a born lucky star who turned bad luck into good luck.
Wei Hanzhang was stunned when she heard that. She remembered that Bo Qian praised her yesterday for "valuing friendship and friendship."
And today the whole capital is spreading rumors that she is affectionate and righteous...
No matter how you look at it, it has something to do with that person.
Wei Hanzhang asked tentatively: "Mother, do you think someone is deliberately controlling this news?" "There are no stupid people under the emperor's feet. Who has the ability to control everyone's mouth."
Jiang couldn't hold back the smile on her face because of this happy event so early in the morning. She said angrily: "If it could be controlled, so many dirty things in the deep house and compound would not be known to everyone."
Right…
Wei Hanzhang nodded slightly. If he could control public opinion, Wei Hanyue would not be still in the temple now.
Rumors are as fierce as tigers, not to mention that in a center of power like the capital, even if someone really wants to lead the public opinion, the royal family may not be able to condone it.
so…
Could these comments about her being "compassionate and righteous" really have nothing to do with Bo Qian yesterday?
Wei Hanzhang still doesn't believe it... After all, this is too coincidental.
But I couldn’t see anyone, and I couldn’t find anyone to confirm it, so I could only put it aside for the time being.
Waiting for Wei Heng to return home after his shift, he heard about this as soon as he walked in. His brows that had been frowning for a long time relaxed and he smiled and said: "Ran Ran is a lucky child."
"Is it possible?" Jiang finally had a happy event in many days. He personally laid out chopstick dishes for him and asked warmly: "The Gu family will be returning to Beijing soon. Have you heard anything in the court?"
In the court, the lady of the Jiang family could only learn one or two from her husband.
Wei Heng was startled when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returned to Beijing yesterday, and today he summoned the ministers of the fourth rank and above for a court meeting. I went to visit my father before I came here, and he has never heard any news about the Gu family."
Since the floods broke out in the Jiangnan officialdom last year, countless Jiangnan officials have been dismissed from their posts, and more than a hundred people have been sentenced to beheading. This is the biggest case in the seven years since the crown prince has been in power.
When Kyoto was implicated, two of the second-rank ministers were beheaded, and the government and the public were in turmoil. When officials talked about the Jiangnan case, their expressions changed. This was also the reason why Zhongyong Hou Weiping was so frightened yesterday.
The power of Heaven is unpredictable, the prince's murderous desire is still unquenched, no one of the courtiers dares to relax, and no one dares to easily inquire about the news of Jiangnan officials.
Therefore, no news came out about the fact that Gu Xulin, the governor of Xuzhou, returned to Beijing after receiving the prince's order.
Jiang was not surprised when she heard this. She said with a smile, "Well, anyway, it's a good thing that the Gu family can return to Beijing. As for which official position is appointed by His Highness, it doesn't matter."
Even if Gu Xulin is promoted to a high-ranking official, the legitimate daughter of their Zhongyong Hou Mansion is worthy of it.
To be honest, with their family's good looks and their reputation being praised by everyone in the capital, it would be easy for them to marry into any clan or prince and become a concubine.
The couple looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere was filled with tenderness that was extremely rare since the eldest daughter's accident.
Since Mrs. Liu's speech that night, several girls from the Wei family have been detained in the mansion and cannot go out with the usual friends like the noble ladies to ride horses, parade through the streets, taste wine and enjoy flowers.
Wei Hanzhang was also taught by Jiang to learn the rules for a few days. Her rules and etiquette were not bad. In the past few days, Jiang mainly helped her to sort out the intricate relationships between various families in the capital.
In the past, the Jiang family only thought that their daughter was going to be married in Xuzhou, and had not had much dealings with the in-laws in the capital, so they just asked Wei Hanzhang to be familiar with the in-laws of the major aristocratic families in the capital.
But now the Gu family is moving to the capital and will take root in the capital in the future. After Wei Hanzhang gets married, he will inevitably have to interact with various government offices in the capital. It would be bad if he doesn't even recognize people by then.
There are also intricate in-law relationships between each family, which also need to be roughly noted down.
