Chapter 29 Wei Yuan leaves Beijing
The next day.

When Wei Yuan was about to leave the British government, Zhang Guifen gave him a gift.

It is a sachet that she personally embroidered, and the herbs in it are also blended by her, which has the effect of calming the mind and refreshing the mind.

When necessary, some of the herbs contained in the sachet also have the effect of stopping bleeding and removing blood stasis.

Herbal medicine is naturally wonderful
But this sachet is a bit unsatisfactory.

However, Zhang Guifen rarely practices female embroidery, so just embroidering this sachet would have taken a lot of effort.

Wei Yuan thought it was a gift from his sister and accepted it.

Zhang Guifen looked very happy when he accepted it.

Mrs. Zhang, who was just standing aside and watching this scene, frowned slightly.

After Wei Yuan left.

Zhang Fu, who came to see her off, said to Mrs. Zhang and others:

"I heard that before coming to the capital, Yuan'er took hundreds of personal guards to the home of a general judge in Yangzhou to support his eldest sister."

"This action seems to be beyond the rules. He has just been personally appointed as the regiment training envoy by the official family. He has a great future, but he still does this. It can be seen that he is a good son who cares about his family and is affectionate and righteous."

Mrs. Zhang was puzzled and asked him about the details of the incident.

Zhang Fu told the story about Sister Wei Yuan being a concubine in the Sheng family and said:
"There are so many right and wrongs in this official family. You must know better than your husband, right? Yuan'er can do this regardless of the future, which shows that his eldest sister has a very high status in his heart."

Mrs. Zhang nodded thoughtfully and murmured:

"Since ancient times, after the death of parents, the eldest brother is like father and the eldest sister is like mother. Now that our marriage with Yuan'er has been decided, let's find an opportunity for me to go and meet Sister Wei."

Zhang Guifen blurted out: "I want to go too."

Mrs. Zhang glared at her fiercely,
"Girls are not shy, and they dare to eavesdrop on anything they say."

"I'm telling you, you are not allowed to touch swords or swords in the recent period. You should learn from your female celebrities!"

"Look at you, even if no one picks up the sachet that you embroidered for your Wei brother, even if it is thrown on the ground, you still have the nerve to give it away!"

Zhang Guifen felt a little aggrieved.

She had embroidered the sachet in advance.

In order not to let anyone know and avoid being embarrassed, she practiced swordplay during the day and went to bed early at night. When the maids had gone down, she lit candles and began to embroider secretly.

A pair of delicate little hands had been pricked several times by needle points.

I just hope that if Wei Yuan comes and likes each other, I will give it to him.

As a result, in the end, he was scolded by his own mother.

"Mother." Zhang Guifen pouted.

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Fu:
"Your mother is right. In a few days, my father will ask your mother to go to the palace and hire a nun to teach you the rules and female workers."

"You should study hard, so that you won't be embarrassed again when your brother Wei comes here next time."

Zhang Guifen felt more and more that her status in this family was gradually no longer as good as that of her father's direct disciple.

No! It’s always been worse!
Thinking of this, she looked miserable.

After a pause, he heard his father say again:

"As for meeting elder sister Yuan'er, I'm not in a rush. Last night when Yuan'er was resting, I sent someone to inquire about her."

"Say that Yangzhou Tongpan Sheng Hong has been excellent in his three-year political performance evaluation. He may have the opportunity to come to Beijing to serve as an official."

"At that time, when the Sheng family has settled down, we will formally go to meet eldest sister Yuan'er."

Wei Shuyi is just a concubine.

According to etiquette, there is no need for the British government to go to the Sheng family, let alone pay any attention to them.

However, Wei Yuan valued his eldest sister.

Zhang Fu and his wife should also pay attention.

After all, in addition to being Wei Yuan's future father-in-law and mother-in-law, they are also Wei Yuan's master and wife. His disciple is away from home, and as Wei Yuan's half-father and mother, he naturally has to take care of his family affairs.

At this time, Zhang Guifen also kept the word "Shengjia" firmly in her mind.

Taking advantage of the time when Wei Yuan returns to Daizhou.

She sent someone to inquire about some things about the Tongpan Sheng family in Yangzhou.

I also learned that Wei Shuyi had a daughter named Sheng Minglan, who was loved and cherished by Wei Yuan.

Send people to Yangzhou to inquire about the news. It will take about ten days to come back and forth.

Although Zhang Guifen didn't find it troublesome, it was just a hardship for the errand boy.

At this moment, in the British government palace.

When Zhang Guifen learned about Wei Shuyi's situation, she secretly murmured:
"The eldest sister has a daughter named Sheng Minglan, who is only a few years younger than me. In the future, won't she want to call me aunt?"

Wei Shuyi was Wei Yuan's elder, and she felt that he was also her elder.

Since they are the elders, let them worry about it.

As for this Sheng Minglan.
"Brother of the Wei family loves her and protects her. One day, the Sheng family really comes to Beijing, and I will naturally love and protect her too."

"By doing this, Brother Wei must be able to feel my intentions, right?"

Since Wei Yuan left.

Zhang Guifen thought of him from time to time.

Occasionally, he would also fantasize about the heroic scene when he defended Yanmen.

As I thought about it, I couldn't let it go.

Even a young person would get so red-faced that he would shut himself in the room and think to himself:

"It's broken, isn't this the Sichun that my brother and the others are talking about?"

"Zhang Guifen, Zhang Guifen, you are a tough girl, look at your potential!"

"But Brother Wei is really good, very good."

As she talked, she looked at the hairpin Wei Yuan bought for her, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose, secretly chuckling.

During these ten days, I sent someone to Yangzhou to inquire about the news.

The Zhang family of the British government also intentionally or unintentionally leaked the news that their young daughter Zhang Guifen had proposed marriage to Wei Yuan.

Naturally, Emperor Jiayou also knew about it.

Some censors couldn't help fanning the flames in his ears.

"Wei Yuan is a border general with 7,000 troops. He was able to resist the invasion of 50,000 Liao troops with only 3,000 men. Now he has joined forces with the British Duke. Isn't it inappropriate?"

inappropriate?
In the Xuanzheng Hall, Emperor Jiayou put down the memorial in his hand and thought of the happy face of the young prince who had been living outside the imperial palace in the capital for more than ten days, so he said decisively:

"What's wrong? Wei Yuan is indeed a good son-in-law. If Emperor Taizu had not said that his relatives should not be involved in politics, I would have wanted to find a princess to marry him and entrust him with important responsibilities."

"Besides, the British father is his teacher. Even if they don't get married, Wei Yuan and the Zhang family will still have broken bones and connected tendons."

"Instead of talking about these things in my ears all day long, you might as well inspect the Lianghuai salt tax for me. In recent years, the salt tax paid has been getting less and less every year."

"If I don't say anything, the people in the household department will just pretend to be confused. I don't have time to calculate this account carefully, but now, I have a lot of leisure time. It's time to check it out."

Yangzhou is also within the boundaries of the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River.

With the emperor's order, the censor became the 'censor of salt patrol'.

Today, after hearing so much from Emperor Jiayou, the censor could not understand that the official family was going to re-employ Wei Yuan.

After leaving the Xuanzheng Hall, the censor named Du felt secretly regretful. If he had known better, he would not have said those words more.

What should we do if the news reaches Wei Yuan's ears in the future, and the other party is the second Duke Di?
