Ci Jinzhi Chapter 366

When Xin You walked toward He Qingxiao and Yong Anbo, the officials quietly looked over and pricked their ears.

 He was shocked when he heard that she invited the two of them to drink tea.

 Is she so upright?

He Qingxiao smiled and nodded: "I'm free."

Xin You looked at Yong Anbo.

This was the first time that Yong Anbo talked to Xin You. Unlike He Qingxiao who simply agreed, he hesitated for a while and declined: "I'm going out soon. I still have a lot of things to deal with. I'll ask Xin to wait for me when I get back from the north. Edict."

 He took the initiative to ask for a marriage because he listened to his brother-in-law's advice, but from the bottom of his heart he did not want to be tied too tightly to a little girl.

Although Ms. Xin is in great glory now, who knows what will happen in the future? The relationship between a brother and a sister is not like that between a father and his daughter. When a prince ascends the throne in the future, whether Miss Xin will be in good or bad shape will depend on the attitude of the new prince.

"Then I wish you all the best." Xinyou didn't care about Yong Anbo's rejection, nodded to He Qingxiao, and strode forward.

 After waiting for the next Yamen, Xin You rushed to the teahouse that she had made an appointment with.

He Qingxiao arrived first, and the Jinlin guard guarding the door opened the door and invited Xin You in.

Xin You sat down opposite He Qingxiao and took the teacup handed to him.

 The tea is hot, just right in your mouth.

 “Master He is going to celebrate the New Year in the south again.”

　　He Qingxiao went south before New Year's Eve last year, and it was already March when he returned to Beijing.

"It's the same wherever you celebrate the New Year." He Qingxiao blurted out, and when she met those clear eyes, she suddenly felt guilty.

　　 are not the same. At least it's different now that I've met Ayou.

Xinyou lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea.

She knew she shouldn't think about her children, but she still felt a little uncomfortable when she heard what he said.

 “I will send you a message in time when the progress of the New Deal is made.”

“The rich land in the south, where officials, gentry and wealthy households gather, will inevitably face many obstacles in implementing the New Deal. Please take care of yourself, sir.”

  It is not uncommon for reformers to suffer losses due to innovation since ancient times. Everyone was afraid of Jin Linwei's cruelty, but she knew that the person in front of her could bleed and feel pain, and was not made of iron.

"Don't worry, Miss Xin, I will take care of myself. Things will not be calm here in the capital, so you should be careful."

 Zhang Shofu's uncle and nephew set a good example for the officials and nobles in the capital at the cost of annihilating the clan. There should be no one stupid enough to kill Xin You directly. What we need to be wary of are political traps, and this is the routine struggle of officials.

Xin You nodded and smiled: "I have prepared some men to accompany Master He as he goes south."

He Qingxiao immediately thought of the notice outside Qingsong Bookstore recruiting students.

“Master He should have guessed that he is the storyteller I recruited a few days ago. When the time comes…”

Hearing the usefulness of the storytellers, He Qingxiao sincerely praised: "With these people, it will not be so easy for anyone to deceive the people with rumors."

Three days later, He Qingxiao and Yonganbo bid farewell to Emperor Xingyuan and led their respective teams on the opposite route.

Xinyou stood on the street and watched the young man on horseback go away.

If she opened her mouth, it would be easy for her to ask that person to allow her to go south, but she would not do so.

  Innovation is often accompanied by blood, and whether it can be implemented or not, the most important thing is the emperor's determination. She must stay by that person's side and prevent others from taking advantage of her to sway that person's mind.

“Qianfeng, go get the horse and take a look at the farm on the outskirts of Beijing.”

Now Xinyou always takes Qianfeng and Ping An with him when he goes out, and he doesn't show off.

Soon Qianfeng brought a horse and the three of them rode out of the city.

The farm on the outskirts of Beijing that Xin You wants to go to is not Wuyun Village, but Zhuangzi under the name of Kou Qingqing, where Kou Qingqing rests.

Kou Qingqing was posthumously granted the title of Princess of Qingning, and the burial specifications must be in accordance with the regulations of the Princess. However, the location has not changed, and it is still in the village that belongs to her.

With the sound of horse hooves, the people in the village rushed to report the news, and Xiao Lian and Aunt Fang ran out.

 “Girl!” Xiaolian and Aunt Fang both greeted her. Building the princess's tomb took more than two or three days. Xin You suggested that Xiao Lian and Aunt Fang guard it to fulfill their master-servant relationship with Kou Qingqing.

"No need to be polite, let's go to Miss Kou's place first."

 Arrived in front of Kou Qingqing's grave, Xin You laid out the sacrifices he had brought and burned incense to worship.

Not far away, the news of building a tomb was heard, and many people could be seen working enthusiastically.

“It's getting colder and colder. If you give them some hot soup every day, the progress will be faster.” Xin You told Xiaolian.

"yes."

 Mother Fang suddenly knelt down.

“What are you doing, Nanny Fang?” Xinyou helped Nanny Fang up.

Mother Fang's eyes were red and her voice was choked with sobs: “I never dreamed that our young lady Qingqing would become the princess…”

Xinyou was silent for a moment.

 She understood Grandma Fang's excitement.

To the world, having a successful candidate or being a Jinshi in a family is a matter of honor for the ancestors and should be recorded in the genealogy solemnly, not to mention being granted the title of princess.

Many people are not less famous after their reincarnation than they were when they were alive. On the contrary, Xinyou has different ideas due to the influence of Queen Xin, and is regarded as an alien in the eyes of ordinary people.

Xin You comforted Grandma Fang, checked the progress of the tomb repair, and prepared to leave.

“Girl, it's not convenient for you to be away from others. Let Xiaolian go back with you.”

"I'll be outside during the day, but Xiaolian will stay in the village. You two can keep me company."

"It's enough to have an old slave guarding her here. When the girl goes home, there will always be someone to bring her tea and water. No one else is as considerate as Xiao Lian." Grandma Fang gave Xiao Lian a tug.

Xiao Lian also said: "My maid has been here for two days, and I feel relieved after seeing those people working. I will go back with you today. Most of the maids at home are from the palace, and the girl is not familiar with them."

Xin You nodded.

Since we are out of the city, we might as well go to Wuyun Village to have a look.

When the Sixth Master heard that Xinyou was coming, he ran out: "The girl is here!"

Looking left and right again, Master Liu's heart skipped a beat: Why can't I see Xiaoba? Could it be that something is causing trouble?

 “I went to Kou Village and came here to have a look.”

 “Xiaoba isn't with you?”

“I decided to come here temporarily, Xiaoba is over at Xin's house.”

 “Oh, oh.” The sixth master breathed a sigh of relief and was about to beat the gongs and drums to tell everyone that the girl is here.

“No need, Brother Six, just accompany me and look around.”

Once he heard that Xin You wanted to look around, the Sixth Master became excited and immediately took her to the martial arts arena.

Xinyou saw a team training.

“It's getting colder and there's less work in the fields, so the brothers spend most of their time practicing.”

Some of the former bandits, now Zhuang Han, noticed that Xin You was coming. Although their expressions were excited, their movements were not chaotic at all.

“Sixth brother is very good at training soldiers.” Xin You praised him without hesitation.

 The Sixth Master chuckled and did not hide it in front of Xin You: "I still learned from those traitors."

 This is talking about the rebel generals and deserters who captured Wuyun Village.

“It's rare to be willing to learn and able to learn.” Xin You looked at the men who were training hard, and her heart moved, “Does Sixth Brother know the nature of water?”

Liu Dangjia was delighted: "We who grew up by the river in the south, how can we not know how to swim?"

"Then don't let this skill go to waste. You might need it in the future."
