"all gone?"
After breakfast, Jian Yu sat in the rocking chair in the courtyard, holding the account book she had not read before. As the breeze blew by, the wind chimes hanging under the eaves jingled, bringing a refreshing feeling.
Seeing the young lady's comfortable appearance, Hongmei came over with a smile in her eyes and brought the tea fruits and placed them one by one on the small table.
Jian Yu seemed to be looking at the account book very seriously, but in fact she was already wandering away. When she heard the movement of Hongmei, she turned around and said, "Everyone is gone?"
"The mothers have already set off, and the letters have been delivered to the inn. Manager Rong Er left at midnight last night."
Hongmei is highly valued by Jian Yu because she has a more "single-minded" temperament. She feels more comfortable leaving many things to Hongmei and is a very good executor of orders.
Jian Yu took a long breath and felt a little unspeakably heavy. She was worried about Jiangnan's affairs, which were also related to the dog assassin.
The other party took three thousand taels of silver from him, which was in line with the dog assassin's behavior. However, this matter was different from other things. The other party actually agreed without further questioning. He was not afraid that she would do something to burn bridges?
She always felt that there was something strange that she couldn't describe, but she couldn't explain it. Looking at it from another angle, the dog assassin had grasped her weakness, so her fearlessness could be explained.
Jian Yu sighed, she had never seen through the dog assassin.
Forget it, now that he has gone to Jiangnan, she doesn't have to worry about anything anymore. She has to think about what will happen if Prince Jing comes back!
Jian Yu and her grandfather didn't talk much that day. Taifu Jian had other official duties, so he said a few words and left.
He came here specially because he was so happy that he couldn't help but tell the news in person.
Taifu Jian believes that his granddaughter is the best. Prince Jing will definitely like her after seeing her. Even if he doesn't like her, if this makes his granddaughter realize the reality and stop being infatuated with Prince Jing, he will take her back.
When a person dies, no matter whether it is good or bad, what remains in his heart are thoughts. But if a person is alive, he cannot tell whether he is good or bad.
Taifu Jian, who had taught Prince Jing for a period of time, was very aware of his bad temper. His granddaughter's love for Prince Jing only existed in legendary imagination. If he really came into contact with him, he would probably change.
So Mrs. Jian was very happy to know that Prince Jing was fine, and her granddaughter would not have to be trapped in this blindfolded love for the rest of her life!
Jian Yu saw what her grandfather was thinking. She was a little bit dumbfounded. Was she too successful? But she could deceive others, but she couldn't deceive herself and Prince Jing!
What love and affection, she is worried about her life.
She thought that during the period before Prince Jing returned to Shengjing, she would probably fall into the melancholy of losing her life.
Facts have proved that Jian Yu thought too much. Prince Jing didn't give him any time to think. Not to mention her, even the emperor didn't expect that Prince Jing would come back so soon!
In the secret letter to the emperor, Zhou Jinyan only wrote two short lines - the emperor is relieved that his brother is not dead, let it be announced to the public.
The tacit understanding between the two brothers made the emperor immediately understand what Zhou Jinyan meant, so the next morning at the court, he announced the news that Prince Jing was still alive.
He knew that his brother must have his reasons for doing this!
Then in the evening, the emperor received another secret message and learned that Zhou Jinyan would arrive at Shengjing City at noon the next day. He was so happy that after the morning court, he took all the civil and military officials to the city gate to greet him in person.
Only then did all the civil and military officials know that Prince Jing was coming back!
Later, Jian Yu received the news from the emperor's messenger, saying that Prince Jing would return to Shengjing at noon, and she led the young prince to the city gate.
Wearing a long green dress, an agate hairpin on her head, and a gauze covering her cheeks, Jian Yu looked delicate and elegant, as graceful as a fairy.
When they met for the first time, she had to act completely harmless in front of Prince Jing.
Wearing a gauze scarf made her look more gentle, and could hide her micro-expressions to the greatest extent. She was afraid that she would not be able to keep her face straight.
She almost lost her temper when she received the news early in the morning that Prince Jing would return to Shengjing at noon! came back? ! People are back? !
Jian Yu, who didn't understand anything, was immediately glad that she had managed to get rid of the dog assassin! The plot here is obviously different. The prince in the original novel did not come back so early at all!
Except for the three princes who happened to be away from Shengjing on official business, all the other distinguished people in Shengjing came, including the concubines!
The Queen Mother was still at the summer resort and could not make it back in time, so she would not have been there in time, otherwise she would have come to greet him at the door. The emperor gave his brother a big deal.
The east city gate has been sealed, and people are going in and out of the other two gates. The emperor, concubines, and officials are at the front, and the carriages at the back are filled with the female relatives of each family.
Then two streets away are the people watching the excitement. They can't see anything here, but Prince Jing has to take this road whether he is returning to the mansion or entering the palace, so they can see it!
Everyone looked towards the city gate, waiting for Prince Jing's return.
With the emperor sitting in charge, it was extremely quiet at the city gate, and no one dared to whisper. In such an environment, the sound of horse hooves was particularly obvious.
Three miles outside the east city gate, soldiers have already set up a guard. If there are ordinary people and merchants who want to enter the city, they are directly told to take another way to enter the city through the south city gate.
Therefore, the sound of horse hooves can only mean that Prince Jing is back, and he is not the only one hearing this sound!
Thinking of the person in the original work who was so powerful that both the male and female protagonists had trouble sleeping, Jian Yu's heartbeat accelerated a little, and she subconsciously tightened her hold on the young prince's hand.
The young prince noticed that he looked up at Jian Yu, thought for a moment, and then put his other hand on her, holding Jian Yu's hand with both hands, full of dependence on his mother's young son.
Jian Yu lowered her head and glanced at the young prince. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised. Her love for the young prince was not in vain. With such an obvious close attitude, after Prince Jing saw it, he treated her for the sake of the young prince. At least his attitude isn't too bad.
The sound of horse hooves got closer and closer, and someone appeared in sight.
The leading man rides a black horse and wears a riding suit with narrow sleeves. His black hair is tied up by a hollow-carved gold crown. The cuffs and collar are decorated with red satin edges with soaring cloud patterns, and his waist is tied with a red silk spider-pattern belt.
The slender body was straight and straight, and the face was as delicate as if it had been carved. Under the sun, he was as handsome as an immortal descending to earth.
Fengshen's handsome face reveals his innate nobility, and his indifferent eyes are full of the evil spirit of being calm and self-confident. This is the fierce and majestic look that can only be possessed by those who fight their way out of the pile of corpses on the battlefield.
Obviously there were only ten guards behind him, but it gave people the feeling of thousands of troops crossing the border.
This is Prince Jing, the man who makes Jin Nu fearful.
At this moment, no matter how much is described in the book, it is not as good as a glimpse. No wonder the civil and military officials are afraid of Prince Jing. Jian Yu thinks that the emperor is already regal enough, but she does not expect that Prince Jing will make him even more breathless.
Seeing the other party get off his horse and salute the emperor with a serious smile, Jian Yu lowered her eyes and saw that Prince Jing had the same face as the dog assassin, but in other aspects, they were not the same at all.
It was just a face-to-face encounter, but the pressure the other party brought to her was even greater than she thought!
