MTL - Kunning-Chapter 178 parting

Jiang Xuening went out early in the morning without saying hello to anyone, only the porter saw her when she came out, but the porter would not know where she was going. If you find her missing at home, you will be anxious.

But the matter of going to Sichuan has already been discussed with Jiang Boyou.

If she returns home with such a distraught appearance, it will inevitably make people worry about her current state, so that the plan to go to Sichuan cannot be carried out. So she found a secluded place on the way, and sat there for a long time, until she forced herself to calm down a little, scooped up the clear water from the stream to wash her face, and then forced herself to return to the mansion without incident.

Jiang Boyou heard that she was missing early in the morning, and he didn't find out where she was going, so he reprimanded a few servants in the mansion, and when he saw her come back as if nothing happened, he frowned tightly, and said solemnly: "Where did you go again? You didn't even say hello to your family. How can you make people feel at ease when you go to Sichuan like this?"

Jiang Xuening actually didn't want to deal with it.

But in this life, apart from Zhang Zhe, she still had things she had to accomplish and mistakes she had to make up for, so she didn't show any flaws in front of Jiang Boyou, and said: "My daughter just remembers that she is about to leave the capital, after all, there is something nostalgic about her. , and some friends are no longer in the capital, so I took advantage of the early morning market to go out alone to relax, and to see if I should prepare some gifts for old friends before leaving the capital. It was a whim, and it was parting. Continue, it's my daughter's fault that made you worry."

She seemed to look the same as usual, but she was indeed not very energetic. Jiang Boyou didn't know what happened between her and Zhang Zhe, so naturally he had no way of guessing where she was going this morning. it is true.

Putting it on other ladies, this reason is nonsense.

It is reasonable to put it on Jiang Xuening's body.

However, these remarks also made Jiang Boyou sigh: "Since you have a bit of nostalgia, would you consider giving up and going to Shuzhong? If you don't like staying at home, it's not a bad idea to find someone you like and marry."

Jiang Xuening looked up at Jiang Boyou.

Jiang Boyou wanted to mention this matter to her last night, but seeing that she was in a trance, she only talked about something about going to Sichuan, and she returned home before she had time to speak, so she dragged it until today: "During the banquet yesterday, father On the contrary, I have found someone with good character, after thinking about it, it is actually suitable for you, if it happens, it may be a good marriage."

Jiang Xuening didn't care about it and shook her head.

Jiang Boyou said, "Master Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Punishments, also took good care of you when he heard about the Battle of Tongzhou. Although he seemed taciturn, he was a reliable person. Yesterday my father chatted with this person a few words, but The rare clear stream in the court. You don't even think about it?"

"..."

Jiang Xuening never expected that the person Jiang Boyou fell in love with was Zhang Zhe, and for a moment she felt mixed feelings, bitter and desolate, unable to cry or laugh.

She slowly lowered her eyes.

Cai said: "Father really bothered, but the daughter's intention to go to Shuzhong has been decided, and all other matters have been arranged. Besides, the daughter has such a domineering temperament, it's better not to harm others. Please father let go of this thought."

Jiang Boyou was helpless immediately.

Of course he admired Zhang Zhe, but Ning girl had no intentions, so it was really hard to force her. Originally, he didn't have much hope for this suggestion, and Jiang Xuening's indifference was also expected.

So I had no choice but to say: "There is really no way. But after all, the mountains in Sichuan are high and the water is far away. I am really worried..."

"Father is the servant of the household department, who is in power among the six departments. The governor of Sichuan, Lu Wenying, is in your same family. The prefect of Rongzhou received your favor in the past, and everything has been properly arranged." Jiang Xuening has indeed never been to Sichuan. But there is not much fear in my heart, "There is also You Fangyin, my daughter's old friend. She is married to the current director of the Ziliujing Salt Farm. She should take care of him. Miss Fan Yilan, the one who went with me to choose a reading companion last year but was dismissed because of her poetry, has also gone to Sichuan in the past few months and lives in Chengdu. If my daughter goes there, she will not be alone."

After Fan Yilan chose to study with her companion, she traveled all over the world, so of course she has no friendship with Jiang Xuening.

But after all, this is the extraordinary person who set a precedent.

A woman left the capital to travel and write poems. In the past few months, some poems have been circulated, and she has become somewhat famous. Moreover, her father's official position is higher than that of Jiang Boyou, and he is in the middle of Sichuan. Naturally, he can persuade Jiang Boyou more.

After thinking about it, Jiang Boyou finally got speechless, and said: "Since that's the case, then in the next two days, you can see if you have any old friends in Beijing who want to say goodbye, so you can talk, after all, you don't know how long you will be back after this trip. "

Jiang Xuening said, "Yes."

Just waiting for Jiang Boyou to leave, she sat under the flower stand outside her house, looked at the tall hibiscus trees next to the courtyard wall, spring came and summer approached, green leaves grew, but there were no flowers, and she thought of Yan Lin who was dressed in brocade clothes. She picked a hibiscus from the wall and threw it into her arms with a smile on her eyes.

At that time, the high-spirited young man had never experienced wind and rain, the charming and manly princess was carefree, You Fangyin was still a poor concubine who was struggling to find a way out, and she had just been reborn, full of yearning for everything and Zhang Zhe.

But now, things are different.

Once the Yongyi Hou's Mansion was overthrown, the Yan family fled to Huangzhou; the Tatars and their wolf ambitions made Princess Leyang go to Fanbang; , In this period of love and hatred with Zhang Zhe, he was beaten bloody, and he knew that the past was not as good as smoke.

What is there to commemorate in this capital city?

Jiang Xuening couldn't figure it out.

If it is said that there is still a bit of melancholy, it is only because Zhang Zhe is still in the capital, no matter whether she can let go of it now, the heavy love-hate entanglement in the past can only end on this day.

The last bit of reluctance was annihilated.

She thought that she had never thought so urgently about leaving this bustling cage and going to the free mountains and rivers that she had longed for.

The family has already started packing their bags.

This matter was feared that there would be chaos in the middle, so it was not announced to the outside world.

Jiang Xuening thought about it carefully, thinking that her trip was not only to fulfill her wish in her previous life, but also to successfully rescue Princess Leyang in the future. For example, Fang Miao, Xiao Dingfei and others, although they may not be useful, but it is better to take care of it than not to take care of it. So taking advantage of the last two days, she asked people to prepare some gifts and send them to everyone's houses.

These days, Xiao Dingfei followed Jiang Xuening to make troubles, and fully experienced the joy of doing whatever he wants and being lawless. Taking advantage of Xiao's troubles and constantly making troubles, he simply interpreted the words "playboy" and "hurt Zhongyong" to the fullest. , when he was so excited that he couldn't extricate himself, he suddenly received a farewell gift from Jiang Xuening, and jumped three feet high in shock.

That afternoon, he came to Jiang's mansion, tugged at her sleeves and cried.

I don’t know how much it’s true, how much it’s an act, saying something like “Who will I rely on after you leave”, “How can you leave me alone to have fun”, “Promised to cover me”, etc. nonsense. But they didn't linger for long, and Jiang Boyou, who rushed over after hearing the news, ran him out with sticks.

Jiang Xuening didn't feel anything, and thought that Xiao Dingfei's virtue of being able to bend and stretch, and being able to do things like ghosts, would not suffer any big losses anywhere, so he didn't take what he said seriously.

It's just that when Xiao Dingfei left, she hesitated.

Everyone took care of it, but only one person made her difficult.

This person is Xie Wei.

In the last life, this person rebelled, killed the royal family, killed the Xiao family, and stained the mountains and rivers with blood. Although she was to blame, she ended up committing suicide and being buried. After all, she was afraid of death;

Wanniang had just left, and she walked with this person on the way back to Beijing, and the other party knew how much she was in a mess, so she also avoided hatred;

In this life, she changed from being paranoid and surly, and became a teacher and student with him when she was able to obey and coax him. She helped him and got help from the other party. gratitude.

All kinds of emotions are intertwined, which is really complicated.

But no matter how complicated it is, Xie Wei in this life is her husband after all, and she has many intersections with her. What's more, he is in the court. In the future, Yan's soldiers will ask him to take care of him in the court. Mediation back and forth...

Anyone can ignore, he cannot ignore;

Anyone can offend, but he must not.

Jiang Xuening is capable of bending and stretching, and Xie Wei in this life doesn't seem to be that scary, so after thinking about it, she decided to do what she liked, and simply went to the Youhuang Pavilion.

These days, Lu Xian’s business has been mediocre, and he hasn’t sold a few pianos, but there are frequent reports of success in the middle of Sichuan, and the Ren’s Salt Farm is going smoothly. As the stock price slowly rose back, he couldn't help but smile.

The little boy in Youhuang Pavilion can still hear him humming a few lines while drinking tea recently.

Don't mention how bright the mood is.

In the early summer afternoon, after a half-hour nap, I took a good purple clay pot and walked around my piano hall.

When I looked up and saw a guest coming, I was happy first.

When you can distinguish the person with your eyes, you raise your eyebrows.

Lu Xian smiled cunningly: "Oh, you are a rare guest, isn't this Miss Jiang Er? Are you here to make or buy pianos, or do you want to talk about silver shares with me?"

As soon as Jiang Xuening heard this, he knew that Lu Zhaoyin was still brooding over the old Ren's salt farm silver stock transaction, and by looking at his expression, he knew that he was like a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered in the other party's eyes.

He was born as a Jinshi, and he was a prime minister in the Imperial Academy. How did he become such a philistine and profiteer?

Jiang Xuening didn't smile: "Buy the piano."

Lu Xian was a little disappointed at once, but he cheered up again after thinking about it: "That's great, I have produced a few good pianos here in the past few months. I thought about it a long time ago, and the Jiaoan that the year-old girl also played It’s been more than half a year, and it’s time to change it. Come and take a look at these pictures, the paint color is delicate, elegant and dignified, just right for a lady like you..."

The corner of Jiang Xuening's mouth twitched slightly: "This piano is not chosen for women."

Lu Xian said "Oh", and quickly turned his hand to the qin hanging on the other wall, and recommended it graciously: "All the qins used by gentlemen are here. Look at this piece of beech wood. The zither master spent two years carefully crafting it, and although it is not as good as the Jiaoan that the girl took away earlier, it is definitely worth it as a gift..."

Jiang Xuening: "..."

She looked at Lu Xian speechlessly.

Lu Xian's ability to observe words and expressions is so powerful, he easily found that she seemed dissatisfied, so his eyes lit up a little bit: "Not satisfied?"

Jiang Xuening glanced at him, and said truthfully, "Give it to Master Xie."

Lu Xian: "..."

Lu Xian, who was about to use an ordinary piano to rob Jiang Xuening of a large sum of money, almost immediately froze the gracious smile on his face. Qin's hand seemed to be frozen, and she slowly retracted it.

He felt a mouthful of old blood in his throat.

It's easy to cheat Jiang Xuening, after all, she can't see the good or the bad; but if this piano is really sent to Xie Wei, hehe, don't care if he has been working for the surname Xie all these years, if Xie Wei sees that it is Zhang You Qin, keep him crying for his father and mother!

Lu Xian looked at Jiang Xuening in a different way, only thinking about whether the girl did it on purpose.

But whether it was intentional or not, the original profiteering idea immediately faded away.

Lifting the curtain in the inner room, he put on his warm and gentle smile again, and said, "Please come inside, I'll ask Tong'er to invite those pianos out."

Not long after, Jiang Xuening bought a piano for four thousand taels, and came out of it.

Lu Xian counted the bank notes in his hand, but lamented in his heart that he had lost half of his earnings, and when he wanted to send Jiang Xuening out, he couldn't help being curious: "The surname is Xie, no, Xie Ju'an's birthday is not here, why did the girl suddenly think of it?" Want to give me a piano?"

Jiang Xuening hugged Qin leaningly, and said lightly: "It's a kindness from a teacher, it's just a parting gift."

Lu Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he froze for a moment.

But Jiang Xuening bowed, turned around the stairs, went downstairs, got into the carriage waiting on the side of the street, and walked away along the long street.

This trip is to go directly to Xie Mansion.
