Chapter 1147: One hundred and forty-seven - joy and sorrow

Views:

This is originally a happy thing. Besides, how can it be linked to matters of frivolity or egotism

Who wouldn't be happy if there was such a big happy event? For example, when Sun Yongning just came back, Mrs. Sun went to the Treasure Pavilion to order a whole set of headwear! She just said a few words to her husband at home, why did she need to be scolded so harshly

She was already the mistress of the house. She had been the mistress of the house for so many years and had long been accustomed to being respected. Even with her husband, she would discuss everything with him and be in harmony with him. But now she was scolded in front of so many servants, and she felt very uncomfortable.

Master Wang knew that his words were too harsh. He coughed uncomfortably for a few times and forced a smile: "Forget it, I was too excited. I was originally worried that the servants below would take advantage of this happy event to do something bullying, but they were not targeting you. Don't worry about it."

That's too far-fetched.

Mrs. Wang was happy because this matter concerned her daughter and was her daughter's honor.

But if we really want to talk about what the relationship is with the Wang family, in fact, there is no relationship. After all, the Wang family can't rely on a married daughter to establish a household. She knows this truth. How could the servants in the family not know it? How could they bully others by relying on a married lady

She pursed her lips, but ultimately said nothing more, though her mood was momentarily dampened.

Master Wang didn't even have dinner and went back to the yamen, saying that the yamen was very busy with festival gifts.

Old Mrs. Wang was a little surprised: "Since you are back, you must have decided to live here. Why did you leave without even having a meal? This boss has become more and more reckless recently."

Mrs. Wang just changed the subject. She didn't know what was wrong with Mr. Wang. She could only comfort herself that he was too busy with government affairs, or something was not going well, so her husband seemed like a different person.

As soon as Master Wang went out, he got on the sedan chair parked at the door and ordered to go to the Ministry of Rites. But halfway through, he changed his mind, asked the sedan bearer to stop, and told his entourage to wait there while he went for a walk on the street.

It's already night, what else is there to do

Although there is no curfew in Beijing now, there are already few people on the streets at this time.

But since Master Wang said he wanted to take a walk, the attendant didn't dare to say anything else. He could only wait at the archway at the street corner with the four sedan bearers. They felt that their master seemed to be in a very bad mood today.

Master Wang didn't care about a servant's thoughts. He walked from the East Fourth Archway in a restless mood. After a long while, he finally stopped at a house. After standing there for a long time, Master Wang turned around and walked out of the alley until he reached the street. He found his followers and sedan bearers and said, "Let's go back to the government office."

The attendants and sedan bearers hurriedly agreed, asked him to get on the sedan, and sent him back to the yamen.

It was late at night and many people in the capital could not sleep. Liao Jingxu was also too excited to fall asleep.

This time, Boss Ma's incident brought out a lot of trouble, not only exposing the remaining thorns in the side of Dali Prefecture, but also giving Dali Prefecture a big gift, the incident of the musket. When Liao Jingxu thinks about it now, he still feels like he can laugh out loud in his dreams.

After he finished his business, he raised his eyebrows and asked Yang Bin who was about to go out: "By the way, are you helping the county lady recently?"

Yang Bin hurriedly agreed. Su Yao had given them some tasks to do recently, and they were all busy helping Su Yao.

He originally thought that Liao Jingxu wanted to ask what the matter was, and was preparing to answer when Liao Jingxu nodded: "Okay, if you are too busy with the things at hand, tell Yang Xin and let the subordinates help you share the burden."

Su Yao always has a purpose in doing things. There must be something important, otherwise she would not have used Yang Bin to do it. She already has many capable people around her.

Seeing that Yang Bin agreed, Liao Jingxu let him leave. He shook his head and returned to the backyard.

Mrs. Liao was still waiting for him. When she saw him, she smiled and said, "You have been getting busier and busier lately."

"That's right." Liao Jingxu answered casually, "Now the weaving mill in Kunming is on the right track. I heard that several female workers have learned how to make Song brocade. Isn't there a saying that every inch of brocade is worth a fortune? This Song brocade is the best among them. You don't know that, let alone other things, the Annan royal family in Myanmar likes it very much. As long as we can make it, the money there will flow to us continuously!"

When Mrs. Liao heard that it was Song Brocade, she sighed, "It's incredible! Before, the county lady asked you to go to Suzhou and Jinling to recruit people. We were a little hesitant at the time. Now it seems that the county lady really has a long-term vision! Once this Song Brocade is released, if it can be produced in batches, this item alone will be a huge amount!"

Liao Jingxu smiled and said, "Yes, that's why I said that things over there are also important. I think that after things over here are almost dealt with, I still have to go back to take charge."

After all, Kunming is the provincial capital of Yunnan.

Mrs. Liao also said, "I just hope that Your Highness can win the battle soon." Speaking of this, Mrs. Liao whispered, "I just don't know if the Earl is doing well now?"

Su Rong had left the city one after another with the envoys who were going to the capital to deliver the Wanshou Festival gifts, in order to make those people think that the muskets were actually sent to the capital. Although they had tried their best to make a grand ceremony and make everything seem logical, there were probably spies and secret sentries around Su Rong after all, and Su Rong himself knew this. Before he left, he had spread the news of going to Kunming, but how many people believed it, only God knew.

Liao Jingxu embraced Madam Liao and said softly, "No news is the best news now. Master Bo is a cautious person, so I believe nothing will happen."

Su Rong had indeed encountered several assassination attempts, but with the loss of Dali Prefecture and the recovery of Zhennan Prefecture, there were no large-scale rebel forces in Yunnan, and he had enough guards with him, so the assassinations he encountered were within his control. In addition, he changed the way he traveled, often hiding during the day and traveling at night. When he arrived at a place, he pretended to be an escort agency, so he arrived relatively smoothly on the way.

When Song Xiangyu heard that Su Rong was coming, he felt a little surprised at first. But when he met Su Rong and heard what Su Rong said, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Really?!"
