"Uncle Wei Sixth?" Guard Chief Ying asked in surprise, "He was a hostage in the imperial capital, and he even sought out your aunt in private? What is the purpose of his looking for your aunt?"
The Huang family came back right after the spring, and she was accompanied by an uncle of Gu Yan's clan. The two parties agreed that the wedding day would be May 23rd. Considering the long distance between Xiliang and the imperial capital and the current unrest, we must prepare to leave now.
At this moment, the master and servant are doing final inspections, and by the way, they are talking about Huang's trip to the imperial capital.
"Of course it's to see a doctor." Mr. Huang said while checking the list in his hand, "Mr. Wei Liu worked too hard in his early years and his foundation was not good. That year, Wei Qi was stimulated by his death, and he was not fully recovered yet. Wen Yaozi might have used him as a treasure, but at Wenyaozi, he was forced to run around at first, not even looking decent. There is no place for him to stay. How can the Sixth Master be recuperated? The root of the disease is already deep. It has not yet appeared, but he is still young."
Wei Changying was surprised and said: "What my aunt means is that Uncle Wei Liu... this Shouyuan?" Could it be that this sixth uncle planned to die in the imperial capital? What is he doing this for? To persuade Huo Zhaoyu and the others to trick the Su family, avenge the Qingzhou Army's pursuit in recent years, and then sell it to Huo Zhaoyu
"That's not the case." Huang said hurriedly, "If the root cause of the disease is detected, it does not necessarily mean that he will not live long. After all, Mr. Wei Liu is not yet 30 years old! Moreover, Wen Yaozi is now different from what he used to be, although it is still unavoidable. He was worried, but he didn't think he would be short of nourishing food. As far as the maid could tell, Master Wei Liu could still afford it for twenty or thirty years if he didn't suffer any more damage in the future. "
Twenty or thirty years later, Wei Xinyong will not live long, but considering the situation, it should be enough for him to do something.
"He actually asked his aunt for diagnosis." Wei Chief Ying said, "I thought he refused to return to Ruiyu Hall and was in the imperial capital as a hostage. He should go to Xin Miao for help."
Back then... the year before last, the Wei family had gone to great lengths to find Wei Xinyong. At that time, it was said that he was not in good health. What surprised the Wei family was that he was unwilling to return to Fengzhou!
Even if Wei Huan sent someone to tell him, there was absolutely no need to worry about the Su family going to Fengzhou to ask for someone. Whether it was him or Mo Binwei, the Wei family was safe.
But Wei Xinyong didn't know what he said to the messenger. In short, the news that Wei Changying heard here was that Wei Huan's palace had been turned green for several days. Ruiyu went up and down the hall, except for Mrs. Song. There is no one like Wei Zheng Hong who is not trembling with fear.
No matter what reason Wei Xinyong gave for refusing at the time, Wei Huan did not pursue it further. But Yi must have refused.
Speaking of which, although Rui Yutang and Wei Xinyong started by using each other, over the years, Wei Xinyong officially adopted Rui Yutang... there is always some affection. Wei Xinyong refused and would rather follow the then unknown Wen Yaozi than go back...
Now that Wei Changying heard that he was sick, he went to Huang instead of Duanmu Xinmiao. There was inevitably a bit of sarcasm in his words.
Huang smiled: "My maid also felt strange, so she asked Master Wei Liu. As a result, Master Wei Liu said that his disease was incurable, so it was better to raise him. But my maid has been studying medicine since the beginning. He was much more attentive than Miss Duanmuba, so he went to find the maid."
Wei Changying said speechlessly: "He is really rude!"
Then he asked, "His disease is really incurable?"
"It can be cured by treatment." Mr. Huang sighed, "But Mr. Wei Liu is not willing to treat it... It cannot be said that he is unwilling to treat it, but that he simply does not have the time to cure it! If you want to cure this disease, you must calm down and calm down. Come on, it will take a year or two to get there. Madam, how can Mr. Wei Liu agree?"
"Even if he is willing, I'm afraid Wen Yaozi won't be willing either!" Wei Changying snorted and said.
However, Wei Changying said so, but he didn't feel that Wen Yaozi didn't care about Wei Xinyong's life. If Wei Xinyong really wanted to retire for a year or two to treat his illness, Wen Yaozi could watch it if he wanted to. Can't stop him.
And judging from the fact that Wei Xinyong, Wen Yaozi's number one think tank, acted as a hostage this time, Wen Yaozi's relationship with him was closer and more trusting than the imagined master-slave relationship.
But what Wei Changying couldn't understand was: "Sixth uncle is deep in the city, cunning and scheming, and he seems to be humble, but he is full of arrogance... A person like my grandfather failed to make him return to his heart several times. Why did Wen Yaozi come from a rough background?" , How can he be willing to help me even though he started from a humble background?"
According to common sense, even if Wei Xinyong likes Wen Yaozi, he should accept him as his subordinate instead of becoming his subordinate himself!
While she was deep in thought, Huang turned the topic back to where they were discussing: "Miss Fourth Aunt's dowry is still a little thinner than before the fall of the imperial capital! Especially the items at the bottom of the box, there really aren't enough to be found. Fortunately, the maid found out in the imperial capital that now that the ladies are out of the palace, their dowry is much less than before. The situation is here. "
Wei Changying recovered his thoughts and said: "Other people's families are other people's families. From the time I entered the Shen family, the fourth sister has helped me. I have already thought about her dowry. The missing part is to get the original Auntie will make up for the things I took away, and the other will make up for a group of soldiers in the dowry! "
Huang was surprised and said: "Soldiers?" We will talk about this later, she is more concerned, "Madam, are you talking about the items in the small package on the day the imperial capital fell? How could that be possible? The things in there are all from my family. I have spent more than ten years saving everything! Everything is the result of the old lady’s hard work! Also, it was given to you by the old lady Su when she was here, including the pair of blood jade hairpins with a pair of wings and branches... otherwise it would be so urgent. How could your servant remember to ask you to bring it with you?"
"I didn't say everything should be given to the fourth sister. I have to pick a couple of things to support her, right?" Wei Changying sighed. His grandmother, Mrs. Song, loved her so much that she wanted to give her all the good things in the world. . Her share of the dowry back then was something everyone in the family envied and hated. Wei Changying didn't pay much attention to money at first because he was born into a wealthy family - but after he became the head of the family, he finally started to plan carefully.
What's more, as Huang said, these are Mrs. Song's love for her granddaughter. They are not only priceless in themselves, but also of great significance.
However, although the Shen family was not troubled by the fall of the imperial capital, money could not be taken advantage of, but this dowry that could calm the situation could not be bought without money. It was mostly fine and could not be messed with. I don't know how much was damaged in the war, and it suddenly became lacking.
Huang personally went to the Imperial Capital last year, but after several months of work, she couldn't get anything good worthy of Shen Zangning's status.
For the sake of Shen Zangning's face, Wei Changying, the sister-in-law, thought about it and had no choice but to lose her own private house.
Of course, this is because she has a good relationship with this sister-in-law and is willing to subsidize her.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Mrs. Huang sighed, thinking that she was really going to lose, so she had to persuade Wei Changying to keep the most precious items.
She asked again: "Which soldier will be the dowry?"
"The capital is so empty now. Although Huo Zhaoyu has a hostage, the hostage is not in the hands of the Gu family in Hongzhou." Wei Changying said calmly, "Besides, Huo Zhaoyu, he can trick the Su family, but he may not be able to trick others." People. I don’t know when the fourth sister will be reunited after her marriage. She is thousands of miles away and has no powerful people. She has no place to speak out when she is wronged!"
Huang said: "But does the valve owner know?"
"I will tell him." Wei Changying rubbed his forehead and said, "I don't believe that the Xiliang army can still lack so many thousands of people?"
"It's not that the army of hundreds of thousands will be short of a few thousand men." At night, Shen Zangfeng leaned on the hidden bag, lazily playing with Wei Changying's long hair, and said with a smile, "The current number of soldiers in Xiliang It’s still enough. It’s no problem to marry thousands of Zang Ning’s soldiers, but have you ever thought about how Zang Ning will support them?”
Wei Changying said: "She has a dowry..."
"How long can it be raised?" Shen Zangfeng listened to his wife's completely unprofessional words and couldn't help but laugh. "Come on Zang Ning, Yinger, your dowry back then was rich enough? If it is used to raise troops, it is calculated as ten thousand fine cavalry. , also without doing anything. What’s more, Zang Ning is leaving the cabinet at an extraordinary time? "
Wei Changying sighed: "Isn't that true?"
"You think, Zang Ning came out of the cabinet with thousands of soldiers, and our Xiliang army has always been strong. With the current defense of the capital, these thousands of people are enough to turn against the foreigners. What will they think of Huo Zhaoyu? Gu Yan is not Hong in the first place. He is a descendant of the Gu family in Zhouzhou. When the deposed Emperor Huanzong was still in charge of the central palace, he was the empress's nephew, and the family would not look down upon him because he was a side branch. But now there is no more deposed Gu family. In order to rely on it, the Wei family is declining, and Gu Wei's identity as consort is useless... let alone the death of the eldest princess of Linchuan. In short, even Huo Zhaoyu, who is trying to win over the family members, values Zhang Pingxu more! "Shen Zangfeng! He stroked his wife's smooth back and said with a smile, "Besides, it is the right thing for the Gu family to protect Zang Ning. Instead, Zang Ning led troops there and had to raise her by herself. Is this the daughter of the Shen family leaving the court, or is it the marriage of Gu Yan? "
"The capital is currently empty of troops! How can I rest assured if something changes?" Guard Chief Ying gently hit her husband, but was held back. She struggled a few times and gave it up, saying angrily, "The war is in chaos. , How long can the soldiers who are getting married stay in the imperial capital? "
Shen Zangfeng pondered for a moment, rubbed his chin on the top of her hair for a while, and then said: "I'll let the second brother act according to the situation. It's hard to say now."
"Oh..." Wei Changying sounded disappointed, but she obediently leaned on her husband's chest, where Shen Zangfeng couldn't see it, but she slightly curled her lips: She really didn't know what kind of soldiers Shen Zangning could not use the dowry to raise. Can’t afford it? I'm just taking this opportunity to make some innuendo...
At this moment, she was very happy: "It seems that my husband plans to let the second brother get married, so he won't leave!"
Since they got married, the two of them have been separated either because of this or that. Otherwise, it's about keeping filial piety... When Wei Zhangying heard that Huo Zhaoyu had tricked the Su family, he was almost crazy! She was just afraid that once the filial piety period was over, Shen Zangfeng would go off to war again... For this reason, she didn't even have the courage to ask directly, and would rather inquire through the layman who was planning to marry her sister-in-law.
Thank God, he shouldn't leave this time.
