Three Hundred and Twenty-One: When I Was Young, My Clothes Were Thin (4)
Langya has outstanding people, a good business atmosphere, and a lot of good things. It happened that Jiang Pengji had been studying in Langya for three years, so the step-wife wrote a letter asking Jiang Pengji to help prepare it, so as to show that the Liu family valued this concubine and the marriage. Ww『W. 『LieWen. CC
Because Liu She took office in Chongzhou, he had no time to marry his concubine, so this task naturally fell on Jiang Pengji's shoulders.
Of course, even if Liu She was free, he would not be able to give such honor to a concubine, let alone that she was not his daughter at all.
Texue sighed, "The husband treats the second lady very well."
Jiang Pengji smiled and said nothing after hearing this.
Would she be nice to a concubine she has never met?
Tsk tsk, what kind of kindness can a weasel have in sending a New Year greeting to a rooster?
It is definitely not a good thing for a concubine to marry Lord Wuma.
Watching Texue Graceful's leaving figure, Jiang Pengji frowned slightly, while the audience in the live broadcast room drooled as they watched.
[Old driver Lianmeng]: What a pity, if the anchor had a male body, such a delicate beauty could be in the room.
[Nongfu Spring is a bit suspense]: #pick nose, the anchor is not such a sick person, do you think everyone thinks with the lower body?
[Panda Ah Ah]: Alas, I also feel that it is a pity that such a beautiful woman grew up with the anchor. Instead of getting married and being ruined by the men of this era, it is better for the anchor to protect her. I think no one can do it better than the anchor.
Faced with a sudden sigh, Jiang Pengji burst into laughter.
How do you say that?
The green bamboo snake's mouth, the wasp's tail enters the battle... some blessings cannot be enjoyed.
Just as she was thinking about it, Ta Xue, who had already left, came into the house again, leaned over and said, "Langjun, Mr. Wei Langjun came to the house to send a greeting card."
"Zixiao? What are you doing here at this hour?"
Jiang Pengji frowned, secretly thinking about Wei Ci's purpose in going to the mansion.
During the three years she had been studying at Langya Academy, she had almost no interaction with Wei Ci. He had his own circle of friends, and Jiang Pengji would not take the initiative to get involved. In addition, this person went out every now and then to visit relatives and friends for most of the month. The two of them didn't see each other very often.
More than half a month ago,
She vaguely heard students from Langya Academy mention that Wei Ci had gone out again. Counting the time, she estimated that he had just come back, so how could he send a greeting card to her house? With this in mind, she went directly to the flower hall to see Wei Ci without making anyone wait.
Jiang Pengji sat down at the host's seat and said with a smile, "It's really a rare guest. Zixiao would take the initiative to come to my humble room."
Three years have passed, and Wei Ci is now a young man in his early twenties, and his appearance is more youthful than three years ago.
Probably due to the fatigue of the journey, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight. The blue clothes on his body actually looked a little empty.
After hearing the joke, Wei Ci covered her lips with her hands and coughed lightly.
The voice was slightly hoarse and slightly nasal. It seemed that the man was not only tired from traveling, but also felt a little unwell.
"Did you catch a cold or something else? Why don't you ask a doctor to take a look?"
Wei Ci shook his head, breathed slowly, and suppressed the urge to cough. However, the green color under his eyes gave his face a sick look, and he didn't look like he was fine. He said, "Ci is fine, but he accidentally caught a cold the day before yesterday. Just a little uncomfortable."
Jiang Pengji nodded and waited for Wei Ci to express his intention.
Wei Ci came to visit, and indeed he had his own purpose.
"Lanting, Ci heard that you are going to marry your concubine and send her to Beijing?" After all, he is a classmate in the same academy. Wei Ci did not call Jiang Pengji so distant, but just followed everyone else and called her by her first name, " If we can push this matter away, we should push it forward as much as possible.”
Jiang Pengji was puzzled and asked, "Zixiao must have a reason for saying this. I don't know why I can't go?"
Wei Ci said, "Three years ago, the government sent troops to help Nansheng. On the surface, it seemed that our own side was fighting, and together with other countries, the four southern barbarians were driven back. In fact, the four southern barbarians had no intention of destroying Nansheng. They just took advantage of the situation to give in and occupy The captured states and counties use this to cultivate their health and make plans for the future. At the same time, this is also an extremely vicious provocation plan..."
Jiang Pengji said, "I know this. The reason why the four Nanman tribes stopped their offensive was not really defeated. It just gave Nansheng a chance to breathe. At the same time, it destroyed the reinforcements from the other four countries and provoked a conflict of interests between the other four countries and Nansheng. Harvest the fisherman's profit..."
Although the other four countries sent troops to help Nansheng defend the last territory, they were not running relief societies, so sending troops to reinforce would come at a cost. After the defeat of Nansheng, not only did they face various terms from the four Southern Barbarians and cede territory again and again, they also had to provide reinforcements to the other four countries. The other four countries nominally sent troops for reinforcements, but they also had the intention of fighting the autumn wind.
However, at first the Nanman offensive was fierce, and they all faced the enemy in unison. Later, the Nanman stopped the offensive, and the internal reinforcement alliance was in chaos.
This matter is known all over the world, but all countries are whitewashing the peace and making the autumn wind just, and they have indeed fooled many fools.
"It's just that, does this matter have anything to do with my concubine's wedding?"
Wei Ciyu choked and lowered her eyelids, her expression slightly silent.
Jiang Pengji was not in a hurry, just waiting for the other party to speak.
"When the spring ploughing is over, the southern barbarians will surely make a big move. Nansheng...is expected to perish. Next, Dongqing will face the dilemma of being attacked from both north and south." Wei Ci said, "The external threat is so obvious, and there are also many internal worries. The situation in Shangjing is extremely serious now, almost to the point of panic. One by one, they are still living a life of drunkenness and dreams, unaware of the changes in the outside world, and are keen on internal fighting. The four princes have grown up and each has their own support. The struggle for the throne is mixed with the increasingly severe struggle between the parties. If you go to Shangjing, I am worried that you will never come back."
When Wei Ci got anxious, he didn't even use "Ci" to refer to himself, and directly called himself "I".
Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows, "Go but never return?"
"Don't underestimate those relatives and eunuchs. When they go crazy, they are not afraid of anyone."
Jiang Pengji was calm and played with the tea bowl in her hand. "I will consider what you said carefully. However, as for the matter of sending the bride, even if there are dragons and tigers ahead, I have to go. Fortunes are sought in danger. I don't know that those relatives and eunuchs without roots are colluding to do something weird, but don't worry, these useless guys can't touch me!"
Wei Ci pursed his lips, and his expression became complicated.
Jiang Pengji said suddenly, "I'm not that weak."
"I know."
"Then relax and wait for the show."
Going to Beijing may be a dragon's den and a tiger's den in the eyes of others, but for her, it is definitely the beginning of her journey across the nine states and four seas.
Wei Ci sighed softly, and suddenly remembered something, and said, "Prince Changshou returned to his fiefdom two years ago. He seems to be well-behaved, but he actually harbors evil intentions. If he is ordered to lead troops into the capital, Lan Ting must be careful and guard against him! This man... has ambitions to covet the throne. The four princes under the emperor's knees may not be able to defeat him."
