Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 406 Going to Anhui

Even if the eighth elder brother didn't want to believe it, the concubine Liang had really passed away. Not only that, the news that the eighth elder brother could not give birth also spread.

Kangxi also wondered: "Check, how does the imperial physician do things, can the master's condition be disclosed casually? Hurry up and send someone to seal the news."

His son could not give birth, and the news was still spreading, Kangxi was not happy at all.

"嗻"

The news was "suppressed", but it was only "suppressed". This has become a "secret" tacitly shared by everyone.

The eighth elder brother really felt that everything was not going well. After the concubine Liang was buried, the direction of the court changed.

In the past, the courtiers thought that the eighth elder brother was gentle and easy to talk, unlike Yinzhen who had a cold face all day long. Such a person would become the emperor in the future, which was also the "blessing" of the courtiers.

But the eighth elder brother can't give birth, a prince who can't have children, Kangxi will certainly not be able to hand over the Datong to him.

Eighth brother is out of the game.

Everyone turned their attention to Yinzhen.

"Fu Jin, there are a lot of greeting cards sent over today."

Tong Cheng'er sighed, there are quite a lot of people who have visited recently, so please refuse them all, others will say that she is high-minded and unreasonable, so please don't refuse!The eighth elder brother next door just passed away, and her mother-in-law has just passed away, and there is an endless stream of visitors in her house, and those who don't know don't know how to arrange it!
It's a mistake to do anything.

She is really too difficult.

"Even if I'm unwell and it's inconvenient to see guests, just refuse!"

"Yes, Fujin."

In the evening, Tong Cheng'er told Yinzhen about this matter, and after she finished speaking, she asked Yinzhen, "When are you going to Anhui?"

"Departure in two days."

Tong Cheng'er: "Can I go with you?"

There has been a lot of gossip in the capital recently, and she doesn't want to stay in the capital anymore.

The disaster in Anhui was under control, and Yinzhen went to Anhui again to rebuild the embankment, so it is not impossible to take Fujin there.

So Yinzhen nodded, "Okay."

Tong Cheng'er showed a smiling face, and kissed Yinzhen: "You are so kind."

So Tong Cheng'er, who had been ill for only two days, recovered again, and before the next wave of invitations came, Tong Cheng'er followed Yinzhen to Anhui.

As for his son Hongzhao, he is no longer a child, so Yinzhen directly handed Hongzhao over to Kangxi to take care of him, and then left him alone.

Of course, he put a lot of people around Hongzhao. After all, he was his own son, and he was very concerned about comforting Yinzhen.

On the way there, he didn't stop much, the river embankment can't wait for repairs, some projects Yinzhen doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't watch them personally.

When he arrived in Anhui, Yinzhen was busy all day long, but if he came back to sleep at night, Tong Cheng'er would have thought he was missing!
Although Yinzhen is busy, Tong Cheng'er's life is not boring.

As Prince Yong Fujin, Tong Cheng'er is a favorite in a place like Anhui, especially the news that the eighth elder brother can't give birth has spread from the capital to the ears of some local officials.

"Fu Jin, this is an invitation from Mrs. Zhizhou, inviting you to her birthday party."

Tong Cheng'er, the local magistrate, heard from Yinzhen that he was smooth and accidental, but he still had a bottom line. His ability can only be said to be moderate, but he is a rare person in the local area who still sticks to the bottom line.

But he saw some local chaos in his eyes, and he didn't intervene for fear of causing trouble.

I can't say it is good or bad, but this time the disaster in Anhui, the Zhizhou did a good job, and he also gave a lot of convenience when Yinzhen rebuilt the embankment, so Tong Cheng'er still wanted to give the Zhizhou wife this face.

"Respond to the post and say I will attend on time."

"Yes, Fujin."

At this time, in Zhizhou's mansion, Mrs. Zhizhou's daughter was talking to her cousin.

"Sister Zhinan, the day after tomorrow will be Mother's birthday. Mother said that there will be many young talents at this banquet, and my cousin will have to choose a good man."

The woman named Zhi Nan smiled lightly: "You girl is so shameless, how can you speak about marriage casually."

Cheng Yue'er said indifferently: "What's the matter? A man should be married at a university and a woman should be married at a university. My cousin is born well and her talent is famous far and wide. Naturally, she should be matched with young talents. How can ordinary people be worthy of her cousin?"

There was a trace of blind admiration in the tone, it could be seen that Cheng Yueer liked her cousin Qi Zhinan very much.

Cheng Yue'er is the daughter of Zhizhou Mansion, and Qi Zhinan is the daughter of Zhizhou's younger sister. Both of her parents died, and she lived in her uncle's house since she was a child. Her cousins ​​grew up together. They are similar in age, but the relationship between sisters is very good.

Regarding Cheng Yueer's naive statement, Qi Zhinan just smiled, although others complimented her as Miss Zhizhou, but she was Miss Biao, she and Cheng Yueer seemed to spend the same food and clothing, but in fact they were different.

Mrs. Zhizhou is kind, she has never treated Qi Zhinan badly, but she is not her biological mother after all, Qi Zhinan has heard a lot of gossip, she understands her situation very well.

At the birthday banquet the day after tomorrow, my aunt did have the idea of ​​choosing a husband for her, but more often she took her out and let others choose.

A cousin whose parents have died is actually not very popular.

……

"Fu Jin, the gift is ready, we can go."

Tong Cheng'er nodded and got into the carriage.

The carriage drove slowly, crossed the street, and stopped in front of the Zhizhou Mansion.

As soon as the carriage stopped, someone came to greet him. It was Zhizhou's eldest son Cheng Ze'an.

Tong Cheng'er came to the banquet, naturally dressed in a dignified manner, her appearance was excellent, and she was rich and noble, and she attracted the attention of everyone around her as soon as she appeared.

I was wondering in my heart who is the lady born here?

Tong Cheng'er got out of the carriage, and Cheng Ze'an hurriedly said, "I've seen Prince Yong, Fujin."

Tong Cheng'er said with a smile: "Mr. Cheng is polite. I'm here to congratulate Mrs. Cheng today. You don't need to be polite."

Cheng Ze'an's words told everyone Tong Cheng'er's identity.

It turned out to be Prince Yong Fujin, no wonder he has such a magnanimity, Fujin from the capital is indeed not comparable to ordinary people.

Tong Chenger was welcomed in, and went directly to Mrs. Zhizhou. When Mrs. Zhizhou saw Tong Chenger, she got up and saluted her: "I have seen Yongjun Wang Fujin."

Tong Cheng'er said with a smile: "Today is Madam's birthday, Madam don't need to be polite, please hurry up."

The tone is gentle and moderate, but it is very irresistible.

Madam Zhizhou smiled and said, "Thank you Fujin."

Mrs. Zhizhou got up, invited Tong Cheng'er to sit down with her, and then chatted and laughed with her.

Mrs. Zhizhou's actions made Cheng Yue'er and Qi Zhinan who followed beside her widen their eyes.

Mrs. Zhizhou is a lady of every family, and she is the most particular on weekdays. She is not impatient in doing anything, and she only smiles lightly when dealing with others.

Cheng Yue'er has never seen her mother smile so "sincerely".

So much so that the cousins ​​were stunned for a moment.

As we chatted, we talked about our daughter.

"I heard that Fujin has a son, why didn't he bring it here?"

Tong Cheng'er smiled and said: "He is young and the journey is far away. His Ama is worried and has a lot of homework, so he didn't bring it here."

Afterwards, Mrs. Zhizhou called her daughter and niece to her, and introduced, "This is my daughter and niece. You will see Fujin soon."

Cheng Yue'er and Qi Zhinan made gestures to salute, but Tong Cheng'er quickly stopped her: "Madam, you are welcome, there is no need to be too polite."

Although Tong Cheng'er put her eyes on her cousins: "You look so beautiful, how old are you, and what's your name."

The cousins ​​looked at Mrs. Zhizhou, and Mrs. Zhizhou smiled and said: "Fu Jin asked you something, just answer it."

The two sisters looked at each other, and Cheng Yueer spoke first: "My name is Cheng Yueer, and I am fourteen this year."

Qi Zhinan: "My name is Qi Zhinan, and I'm fifteen this year."

Tong Cheng'er sighed, "Good name."
