It seems that I really only have three minutes of enthusiasm...I am too lazy to bother, so I will resume the salted fish update mode from the year before today, and there will be another update in the evening. Regular updates will resume from tomorrow, at 7:15 in the morning and 7:15 in the evening, one chapter each.
It's past noon.
I haven't received any news from the city of God yet.
After Su Xian had lunch at the government office, he got up to say goodbye to Tang Ju and returned to the Marquis Mansion. He would set off for Youzhou tomorrow, and he would have to leave at least half a day to prepare.
Of course he doesn't have to worry about luggage or anything like that.
Liu Huixiang has been cleaning up since yesterday.
…
The news that Su Xian will go to Hebei Road tomorrow reached Tang Shuwan's ears through the mouth of the little girl Minglan.
In fact, she has been paying attention to the movements in the yamen and the news from Shendu.
"At this time, Youzhou is in danger everywhere. Although Brother Shi has the important task of secretly resisting the Liao Dynasty, he has always been a weak scholar with no power to restrain a chicken..."
Tang Shuwan murmured to herself and glanced at the half-sewn red wedding dress in her hand. She could no longer calm down and her heart became more and more worried.
The little girl Minglan was standing by and saw the young lady's expression in her eyes. Suddenly an idea came to her and she suggested: "Miss, how about... my servant go ask the second young lady to come over?"
Tang Shuwan instantly understood what she meant. The second young lady was Tang Shujing. Tang Shujing traveled around the world all year round and her skills were even more impressive...
"Go quickly!"
"Okay, I'll be back soon, slave."
"..."
After the little girl Minglan left, Tang Shuwan calmed down, looked at the half-finished wedding dress in her hand, and prepared to continue embroidering.
Although she is the legitimate daughter of a noble family, pampered and delicate, she does not need to sew her own wedding dress like ordinary girls.
But she still did it herself, because on the wedding day, it was more meaningful to get married in a wedding dress sewn by herself...
However, because she was worried about Su Xian's safety when he went north to Youzhou, she couldn't calm down and forced herself to sew, almost pricking her hand with the embroidery needle.
She had no choice but to give up.
Then he just sat there, waiting for Tang Shujing's arrival.
Suddenly, she remembered a cloak she secretly sewed for Su Xian some time ago. It was already cool in Hebei Province in October, so Su Xian could wear it when he went to Youzhou.
She had been hiding that cloak before and didn't give it to Su Xian, mainly because she was embarrassed...but now she had to give it because Su Xian was leaving tomorrow.
She stood up and walked to a wardrobe, carefully took out the cloak, folded it carefully, and carried it to the living room. After meeting Tang Shujing later, she asked Minglan to send it to Su Xian.
"Sister, are you looking for me?"
At this time, Tang Shujing came.
The prison officer's uniform is originally made of men's clothing. When worn on Tang Shujing, it perfectly accentuates her tall figure. The uniform saber hanging from her waist adds to her heroic appearance.
Tang Shuwan just put down the cloak when her sister suddenly broke in, startling her and subconsciously pulling the cushions on the chair to cover the cloak underneath.
"Jing'er, you're here, sit down first." She pretended to be calm and smiled as she asked Tang Shujing to sit down.
"OK."
Tang Shujing didn't think much about it. She just thought that her sister was a little lonely in the boudoir, so she asked her to chat to relieve her boredom. Although she was busy dealing with several cases, she could still distinguish the serious ones.
"Jing'er, I came to you this time because I actually want to ask you something."
"Sister, feel free to ask. It's not convenient for you to come in and out right now. If you have anything you want to know or anything you want to talk about, you can tell me."
Tang Shujing's pointed face was full of pride, but in fact, she felt a little bit disgusted in her heart. Needless to say, she had already guessed——
Tang Shuwan probably wanted to chat with her about the love between her children and was chatting in random directions.
She actually doesn't have much interest in these.
But now is a critical period for Tang Shuwan. She is about to get married. She is full of worries and fears about the future, and her mood is inevitably affected inexplicably.
As a biological sister, she should spend more time with Tang Shuwan to relieve her boredom and loneliness...
She is generous and righteous by nature, and she is even more obligated to her own sister, even if she doesn't like to talk about the love between her children and boring gossip.
Tang Shuwan calmed down and asked:
"Jing'er, you misunderstood. I didn't come to you this time to talk about that... What I want to ask is, how is your skill... exactly?"
"My... skills?"
Tang Shujing was very surprised and her bright eyes widened.
Then she was very excited and thought for the first time, after being a sister for so long, Tang Shuwan finally cared about her "talent" in this area!
She was so excited that she stood up and swung her hand with pride, bragging about how awesome her skills were!
After bragging, seeing both Tang Shuwan and Minglan looking at her with admiration and admiration, she became even more proud. She boasted louder and louder, and finally said... In the Prison Department, except for the four major arrests, Apart from that, she is the most powerful.
Tang Shuwan believed it to be true and was very happy. She boasted about Tang Shujing first, and finally said generously: "Jing'er, I have something to ask you."
"Sister, just tell me, no matter what happens, you can take care of everything on my behalf. I am now the second shift of the Prison Department!" Tang Shujing was so beautiful in her heart that she took care of everything.
"I want to ask you... to go north to Youzhou and protect Brother Shi's safety along the way."
"No problem... uh... what did you say?"
"Go north to Youzhou and protect Brother Shi's safety along the way! Jing'er, you know, Brother Shi is just a weak scholar, but he has the responsibility of..."
"Protect Su Xian?!"
Tang Shujing's expression suddenly changed, and the pride in her heart disappeared without a trace. Although Su Xian was a weak scholar, he had Miss Yang beside him!
She leaned over, fearing that just like what Su Xian said, she could only be a maid who made beds, folded quilts, washed and cooked meals.
Besides, that’s Su Xian!
It's too late for her to hide now!
That's her boss, and he always likes to force her to call him "brother-in-law," which is really annoying.
Just now, if she had known that Tang Shuwan would make such a request, she would not have boasted. Now she is really riding a tiger and is in a dilemma.
"Jing'er...what's wrong?" Tang Shuwan frowned.
"No... no problem!" Tang Shujing secretly gritted her teeth and agreed. The bullshit had been blown out just now, and it was not her style to say no.
"Thank you, Jing'er." Tang Shuwan was very happy and held her hand.
"You're welcome... Haha, this is not a problem to me!" Tang Shujing really wanted to slap herself.
"..."
Tang Shujing left.
She also had to make some preparations.
It is sinking to the west day by day.
About an hour later, the news that Su Xian, Tang Ju and others had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived!
And it’s good news——
The Queen approved Su Xian's request in the memorial and ordered Tang Ju to immediately go north to Youzhou to take up his post. Along with the imperial edict, official uniforms, official seals, appointment documents, etc. were also sent.
When the news reached Tang Shuwan, she was very happy.
This also shows that tomorrow, Tang Ju and Su Xian will set off north to Youzhou together.
She hesitated for a long time, and finally took out the cloak, handed it to Minglan, and ordered her to send it to Fan Yanghou's mansion immediately...
It is said that after Tang Ju got the news, he was overjoyed and hurriedly returned to the back house from the Yamen, asking Mrs. Chen to pack his luggage quickly. He would set off tomorrow, which was a bit hasty.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the back house, he met Minglan. He saw Minglan holding something in her hands, and he was curious and asked what it was.
Minglan replied:
"Reporting to Alang, this is the windbreaker made by the lady herself. The lady said that it is already cool in Youzhou in October, so it is just right to wear this cloak."
Tang Ju was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that Tang Shuwan sewed it for him. She was such a good girl, caring about the cotton-padded jacket, and knowing that she felt sorry for her father.
He stretched out his hands, ready to take the windbreaker and try it on to see if it fit.
However, Minglan hugged the windbreaker and walked forward. Tang Ju's outstretched hands fell into the air.
"Well?"
Tang Ju was immediately dumbfounded, his hands frozen there.
Minglan took two steps before adding: "Oh, by the way, the young lady sewed this for my future uncle with her own hands. I ordered my slave to send it to the Marquis' Mansion immediately."
After the words were spoken, Minglan had already disappeared.
Tang Ju was still frozen there, his hands kept in the air, unchanged for a long time, and his face was full of complex expressions...
