Red makeup against the world

Chapter 823 Warm Sleeves
They were the closest to the war in the Northland and had the most first-hand news.

Xu Wanzhen sent a letter to Xu Wenmin under the guise of Tu Manfen, so that he could have time to deal with it.Either evacuate the shopkeeper, or close down the shops operated by Beidi, Xu Wenmin has to make up his mind on how to do it.

Sure enough, talking about this, Xu Wanzhen turned her attention.

"According to the days, the letter should arrive." Xu Wanzhen lowered her eyes and said, "I hope there is still time."

According to the news heard yesterday, the Ba family army has set out and is heading straight for Daizhou.Daizhou is vast and sparsely populated, and it seems impossible to stop the [-] army.

Tu Manfen comforted her and said: "Don't worry, the court has ordered the prince to lead the army to the north, this battle won't last long."

The news that Feng Mingxian was abolished, King Qi was established as the crown prince, and led the army to the north also reached the ears of the two.It's just that in the military, they are all amateurs. Hearing the news, they can only secretly pray for the end of this battle as soon as possible.

The ship continued to sail south for a few days, during which time Xu Wanzhen received a letter from Wu Zhengxiang declaring her safety.

The worry on her face gradually faded away, since she can't do anything, it's better to put those aside.Think carefully about how to face the situation in Beijing and China.

Fengqi got Wu Zhengxiang's order, and kept nothing from her.Whenever she asks, try to answer her.

"When we arrive at Luoshui Wharf, I will go with Cousin Manfen and settle down at Mr. Ning's house." Xu Wanzhen made a decision after deliberation.

She thought about it, and only Mr. Ning would not make a fuss when she suddenly appeared in front of her who was supposed to be in the Empress Dowager's Palace.

Feng Mingxian has been abolished, Wang Miaoyan and Lei Ba are in prison, and Chen's family is paralyzed.Although the war has started in the north, all those who are unfavorable to her in Beijing have been punished.

All she has to do is continue to hide from her relatives and create the illusion of returning from the palace.Appearing in front of everyone in a good manner, it made some unfavorable speculations about her in Jingli disappear.

Thinking of these, Xu Wan really felt warm in her heart.After she disappeared, so many people worried about her and took care of her aftermath.

The Empress Dowager personally took action to suppress those rumors.Even if there were some guesses in the dark, he didn't dare to speak out in the open.

She was making a sable sleeve warmer in her hand.

When boarding the ship, Wang Leyu sent people to bring up many boxes and cages.Yanming was a gift for her and Tu Manfen to bring back to the capital.

After this incident, the relationship between the two sisters became more and more close, regardless of each other.Looking at the gift list, there are many exquisite things inside, and there are many treasures among them.

Because it was Wang Leyu's wish, Xu Wanzhen only picked up a few of them, leaving the rest to Tu Manfen.

This sable fur is only the size of two palms of an adult man, but it is dense, thick, oily and smooth, and feels warm to the touch.When Xu Wanzhen saw it, she thought of using it to make a sleeve warmer for Empress Dowager Xiao, so she kept it.

Her dowry is rich, and Xu Wenmin loves her very much, and often sends her some good things.She left most of Wang Leyu's gifts to Tu Manfen.

Because Tu Manfen really didn't have many decent things in his hands.The Tu family is in Lin's hands, even though she loves her as the eldest granddaughter, she has to plan more for her son and grandson, the dowry is really quite standard.

Although the Cheng family is a Hou's mansion, it has a large population, and there is nothing good for her, the second daughter-in-law.Cheng Jinghao even used her dowry to go out for fun, and hurled insults when he refused.He even did something like stealing her dowry to change.

After going back and forth, the dowry that Tu Manfen got back was really not much.He also hired a few dowry maids in Cheng's mansion, and became Cheng Jinghao's aunts and housemates.

Wang Leyu sent these, probably because he knew about Tu Manfen's situation.

At first, Tu Manfen refused to accept any resignations.She is a reconciled woman and accepts a gift from a man for no reason, what is going on.

But Wang Leyu did it cleverly, stating that these gifts were for the two of them.Xu Wanzhen tried to persuade Tu Manfen to temporarily accept her in her name.

Tu Manfen understood Wang Leyu's heart in his heart.The price of a gift cannot represent a man's heart, but being willing to give such an expensive gift at least proves her status in his heart.

Every time she thinks of this, Tu Manfen's heart becomes uneasy.Excited and a little uneasy, even she herself couldn't understand how she felt about Wang Leyu.

Xu Wan really got this fine sable hair, so she remembered that Empress Dowager Xiao was afraid of the cold.There was nothing to do on the boat, so when it was docking for supplies, Zhiyan was asked to go ashore with the buyers, and bought some embroidery, needlework and other things on board.

She lined the sable fur with thick Zhang fleece as a lining.I picked a piece of silver-purple brocade fabric, on which the pattern of double phoenixes was meticulously embroidered with gold thread, which was both solemn and delicate.

It's just that the pattern is complicated, and it takes a lot of effort to embroider, and at this time, I just got an outline.

Tu Manfen picked up the sleeve warmer and looked at it for a moment, then praised: "My cousin's female celebrity is the top in Beijing."

Xu Wanzhen said with a slight smile: "My cousin is absurd. Our Xu family is good at silk. If I am not good at female celebrities, I will be embarrassing to my grandmother."

Tu Manfen shook her head with a smile, and said: "It's my younger sister who has worked hard and can have this kind of craftsmanship. There are many silk merchants, and I don't see the daughters of those families have embroidery skills like you."

"Stop praising me." Xu Wanzhen smiled and said, "Please help me think about it. This time, I will ask Mr. Ning to bring her some presents."

Xu Wanzhen knew Mr. Ning far better than Tu Manfen, so when she started talking about it, she just wanted to find some topics on the boat to pass the time.

Tu Manfen also knew what was on her mind. Although the two of them had their own concerns on the boat, they passed away talking and laughing.

……

Luoyang, the imperial city.

Su Liangzhi carefully administered needles to detoxify Emperor Qinglong.After half an hour, there was sweat on the forehead.Standing beside him was the servant of the Imperial Hospital, wiping away his sweat with a silk handkerchief.

After another quarter of an hour, Su Liangzhi put away the silver needle and said: "Father, rest at ease and don't worry too much."

Having said that, the crown prince led the troops to fight in the north, and Emperor Qinglong commanded from the rear.The situation in the court is inherently unstable. At this moment, everyone has to worry about everything. How could he not think about it?

Princess Chunhe put on a smile and said with a smile: "Father, you promised to name my first child. Fu'er has always remembered this, so you mustn't play tricks."

Emperor Qinglong inhaled slowly, suppressing the pain coming from his body.Looking at the loving two people in front of him, he smiled and said: "You are not joking. Since I have accepted Fu'er, how can I break my promise?"

"Okay, you don't have to worry about me, I have my own body. Son-in-law, go and see Duanchen."

Jiang Bingwei, after arriving at the Ancestral Temple, is named Duanchen Layman.

Since she was poisoned with Emperor Qinglong, Empress Cao placed her in Emperor Qinglong's bedroom and received treatment together.
