Chapter 1632 Ren Zijuan is approaching (1)
Not to mention the turmoil among the girls in Champs-Elysees over Shi Xiangyun's marriage, Feng Ziying attended Jia Baoyu's wedding with ease.
In the Zhou Dynasty, it was customary for everyone's children to get married, and they were still accustomed to hosting banquets at home.
There are many places where banquets can be held in the Rongguo Mansion, such as the Provincial Villa, Tubi Mountain Villa, and Aojingxi Pavilion in the Grand View Garden, and the Rongxi Hall in the mansion can also be used, but it depends on how many tables can be set. No, it's just a few tables, unless it's placed outside.
Fortunately, banquets and entertainment in this era are far different from the modern way of giving gifts of love and eating as a matter of course, and people will not send posts everywhere to invite people to attend. Only close relatives and friends will not come. Others, if they are colleagues and friends, will not come. It was just a gift in advance, but no one would come.
So in this case, just a few tables of guests are enough. Many people come to the door to give gifts and then leave after greeting for a while. Only close friends will wait until the couple's ceremony is completed.
Feng Ziying noticed that the congratulatory gifts from Niu Jizong, Wang Ziteng, and Shui Rong had arrived, but no one came. The only real outsiders were herself, Xue Pan, Liu Xianglian, and Wang Ren. Qin Zhong, Jiang Yuhan, etc. Jia Baoyu's close friends, but because of their status or reputation, none of them arrived.
Girls are not allowed to go on stage on these occasions, so they can only hide in the garden and serve a table of good wine and food to celebrate Baoyu's marriage.
Feng Ziying simply socialized with Xue Pan, Liu Xianglian and others at the banquet before leaving Rongguo Mansion and going home. With all his heart and etiquette in mind, he still had to be busy with his family's acceptance of the Spring Festival in three days. , that is your own important matter.
It was already early in the morning when I got home, and I drank a few glasses of wine at noon and evening. Fortunately, my indulgence in Li Wan in the afternoon helped to dissipate the drunkenness a lot.
But tonight she was resting in Baochai's room, and Feng Ziying couldn't help but help her waist again. She calculated that these days were the most fertile times for Baochai, so she guessed that she would have to work hard tonight.
Because we have to wait a few days to welcome the Spring Festival, we will inevitably have to share Baochai and Baoqin's favor. Although on the surface we welcome the arrival of the Spring Festival into the second house, we are still a little bit concerned about this taking up part of our time and energy. Especially when Baochai and Baoqin had no heirs, the situation became even more subtle and sensitive.
Soaking in the tub, Feng Ziying leaned against the wall of the tub, feeling bursts of finger pressure on her forehead and shoulders.
I have to say that the hearty and fierce battle in the afternoon still made him have a lot of memories. He didn't expect that Li Wan, a pretty widow, would be so wild once she went crazy.
Maybe it was because the love that had been suppressed for many years suddenly found a channel to relieve it, or maybe she was struggling to support herself alone in the Rongguo Mansion, but faced an unfriendly environment, and she suddenly found a way to reassure her. The shoulder she leaned on allowed her to easily release all the pressure at once. In short, this explosion mixed with **** made her bloom with endless charm.
The result is also revealed, that is, he fights with all his strength, and only by scoring three times can he conquer this monster.
The sequelae are also obvious, that is, I feel a little weak all over my body, but tonight I have to face Baochai who is looking forward to seeing him.
Being a responsible man is difficult.
The one waiting for Feng Ziying to take a bath was Xiangling.
Fortunately, Xiang Ling was honest. Although she noticed the peculiar smell on Feng Ziying's clothes, she was just confused and did not dare to say anything.
If it were Yinger, that girl, she might turn around and tell Baochai.
Even if Baochai knew about it, he wouldn't be so entangled with her, but it would definitely be bad. Feng Ziying didn't want these things to disturb her interest and affect their relationship, and it was not good to tell the truth, not even lies. Arrangement.
As his mind slowly returned to business, the engagement between Shi Xiangyun and Sun Shaozu still made Feng Ziying aware of Niu Jizong's methods.
Obviously this is the result of Niu Jizong's efforts, otherwise it would not be so fast.
Niu Jizong needed to use his marriage to Shi Jia to bind Sun Shaozu, the deputy commander-in-chief of Datong, and Sun Shaozu also needed to use his marriage to Shi Jia to further consolidate the status of his newly promoted deputy commander-in-chief in Datong Town.
Although historians still have some connections in Datong, but according to my father, there are not many who can really be used. Many of them are just casual acquaintances, which cannot be compared with the Feng, Duan, and Ma families.
But this is a sign that Niu Jizong is going to make a desperate move.
The Ji Town garrison was too spread out, half of it was occupied by the Yongping Mansion. Even the Ji Town General Military Mansion was on the Yongping Mansion side, and the Ji Town garrison was stationed on the Shuntian Mansion side. A considerable number of elites were also stationed there. On the bulge from Huangsongyu to Mutianyu, that is, the Miyun Guard area.
In fact, compared with the Xuanfu garrison of Yanqing Guard, Yanqing Left Guard and Huailai Guard, it is even further away from the capital city.
More importantly, as the governor of Xuanda, Niu Jizong can mobilize the Xuanfu and Datong troops openly, at least in a short period of time, but You Shigong cannot mobilize the Miyun guard garrison at will, so as to prepare for the defeat. Be prepared, if you really want to do it, there is almost no possibility of failure.
Of course, this presupposes that Niu Jizong has the courage.
Feng Ziying's mind was a little confused.
For a moment, I felt that Niu Jizong could not be so crazy. If the Xuanfu army dared to break into the capital, the Jizhen army would be able to arrive if it was slightly blocked. But the Xuanfu army dared to attack the capital city directly? Or maybe they want to use Qiu Xiang of Tiewan Mountain to launch an attack, but Emperor Yonglong and Shenshu Camp are here, so that frontier general dares to lead his troops into Tiewen Mountain? Everyone knows this is rebellion!
For a moment, he felt that Niu Jizong might have to make a desperate move. As long as he broke in in one fell swoop, before the Jizhen army could react, the strength of the Shenshu camp was not enough compared with the elite Xuanfu army. , who can tell clearly, just push it on any scapegoat.
But Niu Jizong is not afraid that Prince Yizhong will come to power and use him as a scapegoat?
There must be something here that I don’t know about, but I have too few resources at my disposal, and my identity also limits me.
Long Jinwei, Jingying, and other personal guards affiliated with the emperor such as the Four Guards Camp, the Warriors Camp, and the Banner Guards did not have enough connections of their own, and many information was unknown.
Just when she was a little confused, she heard someone coming in from outside the door and whispering a few words. Feng Ziying didn't hear it clearly, but Xiangling whispered: "It's Yuchuan'er who is here, saying that someone is waiting to see the uncle over there."
"At this time?" Feng Ziying frowned. Unless there was something special or someone special, Jin Chuan'er and Yu Chuan'er would never bother her.
“Well, Yu Chuan’er said that the visitor was very urgent and had to report to the uncle overnight.” Xiang Ling didn’t understand anything, so she could only convey the exact words.
In this case, Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe he would be able to overcome the difficulty tonight.
Last night he and Er You played a game of dragon and phoenix, and in the afternoon he and Li Wan had a fierce battle with San Lily to show off their obscenity. This evening, he was going to meet Baochai who hoped to have a son soon, and he really felt a little bit overwhelmed. Okay, no matter how hard Master Zhang taught you the secret skills, you can't withstand such an abrupt attack. This is what Master Zhang specifically reminded you, and you still need to pay attention to relaxation and discipline.
“You mean there’s something going on over at Cuihua Alley?” Feng Ziying rubbed her temples and looked at Wu Yaoqing.
"Not only Cuihua Hutong, the gang from Hongqing Temple also changed last night. They moved overnight to Cuifeng Nunnery on the northwest corner of Guangping Library." Wu Yaoqing looked very excited, "This time it's Several people in the third class of the Yamen made meritorious service. We adopted the method of loosening the outside and tightening the inside. The people who were originally watching gradually withdrew and let them relax their vigilance. The people who followed later were disguised very well and all had professional cover. , avoiding the people from Hongqing Temple, they started making noises since yesterday evening, and then quietly moved to Cuifeng Temple,..."
"Cuifeng Nunnery?" Feng Ziying thought for a while, "It's on the edge of Guangping Kubian, right next to Xizhimen?"
“Yes, it’s right next to Xizhimen, between Xingyuan’an Hutong and Baer Hutong, and Anmin Factory is right next to it.” Wu Yaoqing introduced.
An Minchang and Wanggongchang are the two largest gunpowder workshops and warehouses in Zhou Dynasty. One is in the northwest corner, and the other is in the west at the junction of the inner city and the outer city, next to Chengen Temple and the Xuncheng Inspectorate.
“Then what do you think they want to do when they take action at this time?” Feng Ziying asked, holding her chin.
"If we think about what we found in Huairou before, my subordinates think that it may have something to do with the Qiuban of Tiewang Mountain. Cuifeng Nunnery is an abandoned nunnery. As early as the 33rd year of Yuanxi, it was thought that the White Lotus in Beijing was The connection between the priest and the nunnery director was investigated by the Ministry of Punishment. However, his subordinates investigated the case and asked someone to go to the Ministry of Punishment to check the case file. The details were unclear. It is said that many of the White Lotus priests and nuns in the nunnery escaped at that time. Later, this The nunnery was sealed up. In the past few years, people around it said that Cuifeng Nunnery was haunted, so fewer and fewer people went there."
Feng Ziying pondered, "Cui Feng Nunnery was sealed off like this and no one cared about it?"
"My subordinates also asked people in the Criminal Department, but it was a long time ago. It was already seventeen or eighteen years ago. At that time, the investigators were either transferred or retired. No one has much impression. It was not easy to find them. An old official revealed a piece of news, saying that someone in the palace should have said hello at that time. Cuifeng Nunnery was originally going to be demolished, but it was aborted and left there..."
This clue provided by Wu Yaoqing made Feng Ziying a little wary, "A person in the palace? Is it a chamberlain, a concubine? Or which prince?"
"I don't know. The old official also overheard one of the managers making a mistake while drunk many years ago. Later, the manager fell into the water and died after being drunk..." Wu Yaoqing replied.
