Ding Beirui said nothing, cupped his hands and said: "This matter is related to poetry. Although the official is her father, he has never raised her for a day. The Duke's wife said that these officials also understand that you are doing this for her own good. These things
Even a rough old man like me, an official, doesn’t understand what’s going on, so I need to bother you even more.”
Princess Anle nodded slightly: "Your words are enough, I will ask others to make arrangements for the other things! You prepare here, and then go back..."
"I have nothing to prepare here. If you need me to do anything, just send someone to tell you. As for the three matchmakers and six pings, there is no such thing! Even in private, it won't work."
Ding Beirui felt very complicated about Luo Jiaocheng. He always felt that he had done something treacherous, but every time he thought about why he ended up in such a situation, he felt a twisted pleasure in his heart.
It's just that this is an unknown side of his heart that cannot be told to outsiders.
Now that he heard that he wanted to marry her, he felt particularly ironic.
But so what, after all, we still have to think more about poetry. How can a mere Luo Jiaocheng compare to his daughter?
Princess Anle saw that what he said was so clear-cut and had no desire to continue, so she waved her hand and said: "If you are busy, go ahead. You have to ask, I already know it, I will see you later."
Let’s discuss.”
After Ding Beirui went out, as soon as Nanny Chu entered the door, she heard Princess Anle sigh and said: "What a sin you have done!"
Aunt Chu was Princess Anle's confidant. When she heard this, she understood what she was getting. She immediately lowered her head and pretended that she didn't know about it.
"Mother Chu, you will go to Bai Mansion in person tomorrow and ask Mi to come over!"
"yes!"
Tuofeng Town
Since entering the third month of Yangchun, Yan Shiqing has been extremely busy, and she has even forgotten her birthday.
I either took Xiangtao and Xiao Nian'an to the Yamen all day long, or I took a carriage and walked around. After returning, I started to draw and mark the places I saw.
It's not that Mr. Wang didn't give her the topographic map of Tuofeng Town and even Antelope City. In fact, what he provided was different from what Yan Shiqing sees now.
After she learned her identity, she took the initiative to explain it to Mr. Wang after the New Year, and even told her her own thoughts.
If she wants to do something, she needs Mr. Wang's support and he will execute it.
Fortunately, Lord Wang heard that she was Princess Ruyi, and secretly learned from Shopkeeper Ma that she was a lucky star, so he immediately followed her orders.
It can even be said that he seems to have seen his great political achievements and the road to promotion just around the corner.
Last year when the new emperor ascended the throne, he granted a general amnesty and exempted the people who still lived in the Antelope City area from taxes for three years.
Now that he heard that Princess Ruyi, the lucky star of Dachu, came to him to help the people here live and make them rich, what else could he say?
As for the sea buckthorn and wolfberry trees that Yan Shiqing said she was looking for, he posted a notice asking people who knew where to provide information.
Because he spent all his wealth just to take care of the people he left behind, he had a very high reputation among the people, and whatever he said would be implemented.
On the first day after the notice was posted, no news was received. On the second day, no news was received. On the third day, no news was received. After the third day, it was still the same. After that, the people who stayed in Tuofeng Town spontaneously used their free time to search for it in various places.
Although they didn't know what Mr. Wang was looking for with these two trees, they felt that since they were what Mr. Wang was looking for, they must be useful.
There have been several snowfalls in succession over the past two years, and now the area around Tuofeng Town is not considered to be in a drought. Even the wells that once dried up have started to leak water again, which has given the people hope to survive.
The weather is getting a little warmer, and everyone is trying their best to replant the land that has not been planted in several years.
Even just growing some vegetables is better than doing nothing.
On this day, Yan Shiqing brought Xiang Tao and Xiao Nian'an, who was already talking and walking neatly, into the town. She saw a person running out of the side, shouting as he ran: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, Miss Yan is back.
The girl is back!"
When Yan Shiqing saw the figure running so fast, she shook her head helplessly.
Ever since the shopkeeper found out that she was the princess, she had been so enthusiastic about her attitude that she couldn't stand it.
Fortunately, the others didn't have much of a problem, but they had to ask her questions no matter what they did, and they always had people guarding her at the town gate, which she couldn't stand.
Seeing this, Xiangtao couldn't help but chuckle: "Sister Shiqing, I'm afraid I'll have something to do with you this time!"
Yan Shiqing simply got out of the carriage with Xiao Nian in her arms, and said to Xiang Tao who was driving on the carriage, "You drive the carriage back home first, and I'll go and see what's going on."
"good!"
Xiang Tao shook her head as she spoke. Thinking of Shopkeeper Ma's mobility, she didn't know what to say.
After he found out that Sister Shiqing was the princess, he really listened to her words. He heard that without saying anything, he spent most of his wealth and bought 500 acres of land with Mr. Wang in one fell swoop.
Afterwards, let his family members, including his wife, daughter and old lady, come to the princess to listen to her lectures.
This matter happens every three days. Even if Sister Shiqing refuses, it will be useless.
He was not at all flustered by the fact that the five hundred acres of land were now vacant, as if he was sure that Sister Shiqing would not ask him to lose money.
I heard that he also sent people everywhere to inquire about the sea buckthorn and wolfberry trees. At first, he said he had seen them somewhere. Is it possible that there is news now?
Just as Xiangtao drove towards Yan's house in Tuofeng Town, Yan Shiqing was almost at the inn run by Shopkeeper Ma.
However, before she could get closer, Shopkeeper Ma and Master Wang came out to welcome her with smiles on their faces.
"Miss Yan!"
The two of them knew that Yan Shiqing did not want everyone to know her identity, so when they nodded slightly, they did not dare to salute in public.
Yan Shiqing placed Xiao Nian on the ground, held his hand, and then said: "Why is Mr. Wang here too? Why do you want to see me?"
Mr. Wang took a step forward, took out a letter from his sleeve pocket and handed it over. He lowered his voice and said: "Princess, this is the letter that the official received today, saying that a batch of wolfberry trees and sea buckthorn trees are coming from Pingxi."
The city's transportation is here and will arrive soon. The letter names everyone and says that these things are for you, the princess." yyls
When Yan Shiqing heard this, she was puzzled. Who would know the news that she was here? How come someone named her wanted to give these two kinds of trees to her, and they had already found them?
When she opened the letter, it said how many of the two kinds of saplings she needed. Someone who knew about this would come to give guidance.
The person who signed the signature at the end was Mrs. Cixin.
Seeing this, Yan Shiqing's eyes narrowed, and she quickly read the letter up and down again. When she saw the handwriting clearly, she breathed a sigh of relief.
