Chapter 98 Chapter 98
Hussar General Xie Fanghan will soon hold a weak crown ceremony at the General's Mansion. After Wei Baili talked with the Minister of Rites alone, the news swept through the entire Xijing like a hurricane.
Even the people of Xijing turned the topic to this young general.
After all, it is rare for such a young and promising young man to visit the Five Kingdoms.
The dignitaries also started to take action one after another, those who prepared gifts prepared gifts, and those who prepared others prepared others.
Although Yan Yutang was very decisive in the hall last time, it doesn't mean that this little general Xie thinks the same way. You are a young man with high spirits. Yan Yutang is a princess, so she is more noble than Xie Fanghan in terms of identity. He is a proud and powerful master, so maybe he won't be able to get along with each other.
Who doesn't like a gentle lady?
After listening to the secret guard's report on the actions of these nobles, Yan Yutang closed the memorial with a blank expression.
Yan Yujia laughed unceremoniously at the side.
These old stubborn people obstructed the implementation of the New Deal in every possible way, and their brains turned quickly when they were playing tricks.
Yan Yujia happily ate melons, looking forward to the day when the weak crown ceremony will be held.
"The third princess is here." Gao Shengtong, an attendant outside, reported.
"Hehe, I came back quite early this year." Yan Yujia's eyes lit up, and she stopped eating melons.
The hidden guard retreated out wisely, and after a short while, the door was pushed open, and Yan Yudan walked in from the outside in a strong outfit.
Since that day in the Leng Palace, the empress has lived in the Leng Palace for a long time, and Emperor Yan stayed behind closed doors in the Houde Palace. Some of the remaining concubines asked for orders to go home, and some moved to remote palaces together in twos and threes for companionship. live.
The overlapping of rights did not cause too much trouble in the harem, and it must have been prepared by Emperor Yan long ago.
The third princess has locked herself in her bedroom since that day. Although Yan Yutang also knew her difficulties, it didn't mean that she could rest assured of the gap in her heart, so she arranged a few hidden guards to follow her and left her alone. Gu.
Not long after Xie Fanghan went south, Li Zhe built Yan Yutang alone with a sea chart and a letter written by Xie Fanghan. On the second day, Yan Yutang ordered to form a sea caravan.
The ministers in the court were not optimistic. The words of the court were mocking the two sisters for their incompetence. Until the caravan set off for the first time, the three princesses, who were not at home, suddenly appeared outside the palace and said that they would sail with the ship. .
Yan Yutang had no reason not to agree, and agreed to her request.
The caravan's first voyage was not far away, but even so, it took more than half a year to go back and forth, but the rewards were very rich. This trip made up for all the previous investment, and there was a lot of surplus.
When the courtiers heard Li Zhe's reports at the court, many of them turned red with envy, and changed their previous attitude and began to praise Yan Yutang's foresight.
And the third princess has changed a lot because of going to sea, the conditions on the boat are tough, even if she is a princess, she doesn't have too many privileges, she has lost weight and darkened in the past six months, but her spirit is much better than in the palace few.
The three princesses didn't see her when they returned to the palace, so they asked the servants to send a box of pearls to Yan Yutang and Yan Yujia respectively, and went to the cold palace alone, and then locked themselves back in the bedroom.
In the second year, Yan Yudan still went out to sea with the caravan, but this year the caravan went farther and traveled for a full year. When he came back, it happened to be in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival. There were not many people left, and there was no need for this kind of occasion. She and Yan Yujia set up a table of dishes in Tangyuan, and invited the sixth prince and second imperial concubine, which was considered a table.
When the hidden guard came to report the time, Yan Yutang paused, and sent someone to invite Yan Yudan over. It was the first time for the two of them to have a peaceful meal.
After going out to sea a few times later, Yan Yudan would go to see her two younger sisters besides going to Lenggong. She didn't talk much, and exchanged a few pleasantries, which was actually kind of warm.
"What good things did you bring back this time?" Yan Yujia's tone was familiar, not as if seeing her sister, but as if meeting a friend.
The third princess smiled at her, her voice hoarse: "This time the southwest route has harvested a lot, and I have brought some spices and crops. I have someone prepare them outside. Go and have a look."
Yan Yujia's eyes became brighter, and she quickly picked up her skirt and walked out.
Yan Yudan looked at Yan Yutang behind the desk, and after the two met their gazes, she smiled proactively, "I heard that General Xie is back."
Yan Yutang nodded: "I just came back not long ago."
Yan Yudan looked at this younger sister who had been targeted by her since she was a child, and felt a little emotional in her heart. Who would have thought that such a result would end up like this?
After going out for a while, she has seen more and seen farther away, and the things that have been entangled in her heart are gradually no longer so persistent. She feels ashamed of Yan Yutang, but she also knows that her younger sister does not need her to make up for it. , it is good to maintain the current situation.
Speaking of which, she still owes Yan Yutang a debt of love. She is already 23 this year. If Emperor Yan was in power at this age, she would have been married off a long time ago. How could she still have the opportunity to go to sea with the ship.
She didn't mention getting married, and Yan Yutang didn't take the initiative to mention it either.This is changing the direction of giving her the right to marry, which was something she never dared to think about before.
Yan Yudan still had a smile on his face as he thought about it, "I have never found a suitable opportunity to say, congratulations, lovers will finally get married."
When Yan Yutang heard this, the corner of her mouth finally curled up, "Thank you, sister Huang."
Yan Yudan was a little dazed when he heard the address that he hadn't heard for many years, but a warm current surged in his heart, which made him feel extremely comfortable.
She didn't stay for long, and after a few simple explanations, she offered to go to the Leng Palace. Yan Yutang understood what she meant, nodded and didn't say much.
If she could say a few words calmly to Yan Yudan, she could never mind the empress.
Xie Fanghan, the person involved, didn't pay extra attention to these turmoil in the palace.
Ever since the old man set the date swiftly and resolutely, she was so busy that she didn't even have time to enter the palace.
She is now a member of the "Wei" family, and there is no one else in the family except for an old man, and no one will handle the weak crown ceremony for her, so she can only drag Xiaohua to work with her.
Even so, she was still a bit too busy, and finally asked the second imperial concubine from the palace to help, and then went on.
The day before the weak crown ceremony, Xie Fanghan finally found some free time and rode to the unnamed lonely mountain outside the city.
The top of the mountain has not changed much from the time she came here before she left. Yan Yutang obeyed Concubine Shu's last wish and did not wantonly find someone to repair and disturb their tranquility.
Xie Mingyuan's grave stood not far from the two of them, not obtrusively, quietly guarding the side.
Xie Fanghan incensed the three of them one by one, cleaned the weeds and fallen leaves around them, and whispered a few words about what she had done outside in the past few years. She mentioned that tomorrow would be her weak coronation ceremony in front of Wei Xun's stele.
Although these three people may not "love" them, and even she and Yan Yutang are just tools to accomplish some goals for them, but if you want to say hate, it still doesn't reach that level.
Apart from not loving them, these two parents have done a good job.
Xie Fanghan took one last look, and rode his horse away from Gushan.
Apart from visiting the grave, she came out today for another purpose, which was to meet Li Zhe.
She first mentioned the matter of HNA with Li Zhe. In the past three years, some goods have been received, but a long-distance voyage is not a long-term plan. With the technological level of this era, it is already good to be able to go as far as it is now. Some are unattainable.
"Yizhi." Li Zhe waved to him from a distance.
Xie Fanghan entered the cubicle, and Li Zhe couldn't wait to take out a stack of blueprints from the side.
"These are all designed according to your ideas, see how it goes."
Li Zhe's "aspirations are all over the world." This is what she knew from the first day they met. Xie Fanghan knew how much profit HNA would make after it opened. Even if he didn't do statistics, he knew that it would be a sky-high income.
She can trust Li Zhe's character. His own income is owned by the state, and there is no conflict of interest. It is also a good thing that benefits the people. As long as she mentions it, Li Zhe will definitely agree.
It was exactly as she thought, she had met Li Zhe once before she left, and he had expressed a strong interest just as soon as he mentioned the beginning. Now that Hainan Airlines is about to open, the route is almost explored, but the design of the ship is still somewhat lacking.
Li Zhe carefully talked about the scenery along the way and some things encountered during the voyage. Xie Fanghan summed up the experience of the two lives and put forward some directions and opinions. The two stayed in the restaurant until the evening.
After leaving the restaurant, Li Zhe patted Xie Fanghan on the shoulder, "I brought back some good things from the sea this time, and I just gave it to you as a gift for tomorrow's crowning ceremony."
Xie Fanghan wasn't polite to him either, and agreed straight away.There are many requirements for the crowning ceremony of the nobles, and they pay attention to the appearance. Xie Fanghan has no father and brother now. Even though he and Wei Baili are not low in status, there is still a lack of someone on the surface. Li Zhexu is one year older than him, and they have known each other for so many years , willing to help her is also very grateful.
She didn't know many people of her age in Xijing. After several years of promotion, her peers would only shy away when they saw her. Except for the two people in the palace, only Li Zhe and Wei Nanyan treated her as before. She liked this very much. an easy relationship.
When Xie Fanghan rode back to the gate of the General's Mansion, he saw a carriage parked at the gate from a distance.
Xie Fanghan stopped beside the carriage, before he could ask any questions, he saw the driver swiftly opened the curtain, and there was someone she knew very well in the carriage.
"Why are you here at this time?" She looked at the people in the car and got off the horse while talking.
Yan Yutang was dressed in casual clothes, walked to the side of the car with a calm expression, and very naturally took the hand extended by Xie Fanghan.
"I'll see if anyone needs help."
"No matter how busy you are, I won't ask you to help." Xie Fanghan helped him down carefully, and replied casually.
"Do you think I can't help?" Yan Yutang lowered the corner of her mouth and looked up at her.
"That's not what I meant." Xie Fanghan quickly explained: "Although the time is tight, but to put it bluntly, it is just some trivial preparations. You are too talented to worry about such trivial matters."
It's really a bit...
"However, speaking of which, why are you leaving the palace at this time?"
It was completely dark when they were talking, the General's Mansion is not far from the imperial palace, Yan Yutang should not be leaving the palace early, not to mention that if she knew that she would go out to find him today, why would Xie Fanghan go out, he would definitely accompany her .
"..."
Yan Yutang turned her head to avoid the question, and Xie Fanghan didn't continue to ask after seeing this, but changed the subject and said, "Have you had dinner yet?"
Yan Yutang shook her head lightly.
Xie Fanghan looked at her and wanted to say that he would go to the mansion to have dinner together, but he suddenly changed his mind before speaking.
"How about I take you out to dinner tonight?"
This proposal surprised Yan Yutang very much. Although it was unexpected, she was very moved.
She nodded vigorously to Xie Fanghan's bright eyes.
"it is good!"
