Being a Lady of an Influential Family: 296, the capital
On the first day of the new year, when everyone in Yongcheng was still immersed in the joy of the new year, Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng had already packed up and took people on the train to the capital.
Because Dujun Fu didn't go, Song Boang would only join them before going to sea in half a month, so this time, when he went to the capital, Master Fu became the actual decision maker of everything.
Young Master Fu doesn't feel anything about this. After all, he has long been accustomed to being alone and making his own decisions over the years. If there is an important matter in Yongcheng, if you can remember to report it to Dujun Fu, you already respect him as a father.
But other people obviously don't think so, and the young people who have hardly traveled far seem very excited, including the fourth young master of the Fu family. A group of newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and they can't wait to kill the Quartet in minutes.
In addition to the 100 young elites who followed Fu Fengcheng into Beijing, there were also many entourages. There were about 150 people in total.
Fu's family is not short of money, and they directly booked four carriages. Except for the separate luxury box where Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng live, the accompanying Lan Jing and Yuan Ying live in a small room outside, and the other 100 people are separated. Live in the other three sleeping cars.
After all, it takes nearly three days to travel from Yongcheng to Beijing by train, and everyone is not going to Beijing to play. Now is not a special period, and the Fu family doesn't care about saving this money if it can be relaxed.
Although this era lags behind Leng Sa's era in many aspects, it has to be said that it is still different in some aspects.
After all, she hadn't heard of it at the time, which train's first-class car directly occupied an entire car.
Leng Sa was a little surprised when she walked into the compartment, the whole compartment was like a luxury suite. Although the sparrow is small and complete, the bedroom, dining room and reception room are all available, and the layout is quite magnificent.
This was not specially made for Mrs. Fu's eldest young lady, but the special first-class carriage on the train itself, which was specially designed for the travel of wealthy and powerful giants and businessmen.
After all, the speed of trains is really not very fast these days, and it is a bit of a toss for those who are rich and precious to travel for several days. At most, the carriage was rearranged in advance because the eldest young lady of the Fu family was coming.
"How is it?" Leng Sa was leaning against the window and looking out when Fu Fengcheng came in. The train is about to leave, but the passengers in the back compartment have not all come up, and it seems a bit noisy outside.
Leng Sa turned around and smiled at him: "It's very good."
Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "Madam is satisfied. If there is any problem, let Yuan Ying go to tell the conductor."
Leng Sa waved his hand indifferently and said, "I've seen it, it's no problem. And it's only three days, it doesn't matter." It's only three days, even if there are any shortcomings, it's not a big problem.
Fu Fengcheng said, "It's not a special time now. Madam can't be patient. The Fu family paid for it."
The railway is not something that can be done by one place and one family, even if other superintendents with this strength do not cooperate. So the superintendents who built the railway from south to north all participated, and the Fu family also had a large part of the shares.
But after all, it's not from the Fu family, so the money that should be given for travel should still be given. At most, it can have some advantages in ticket scheduling.
"Okay, I see. Are the arrangements made later? Come and take a rest, too." Leng Sa smiled at him.
Fu Fengcheng nodded, "There are Su Ze and the fourth child behind."
This time, only Su Ze was by his side, Xia Wei'an and Xu Shaoming were both left in Yongcheng. Xu Shaoming is very sad about this. Although he is no longer interested in going to the capital, he is very interested in going to Naga.
Unfortunately, there are many things in Yongcheng, and the three of them are destined to go alone. Last time, he and Xia Weian worked together to throw Su Ze to suppress the bandits, and the bandits who had been guest appearances for a long time missed a lot of interesting things. .
While the two were talking, the train suddenly made a long honk.
Leng Sa looked outside, only to find that the passengers had already boarded the train, and all the people standing on the platform were people who came to see them off.
"Going to go."
Fu Fengcheng walked to the sofa by the car window, sat down next to Leng Sa, glanced outside casually and nodded.
Young Master Fu has been traveling between the capital and Yongcheng for many years, whether by train, car or even on horseback. He is not very interested in this.
But I was interested in seeing Leng Sa, so I watched it with her.
Leng Sa looked at him for a while and then leaned on Fu Fengcheng's shoulder to chat with him. She wasn't really interested in these things, she just remembered the traffic in her previous life. It is many times more convenient and quicker than it is now, but I can no longer see the situation of farewell on the platform now.
Soon, the train made a heavy and rhythmic sound, and slowly moved forward with a long honk.
A long-distance train ride is actually quite boring and uninteresting. No matter how beautiful the scenery outside the window is, it should be boring to watch it for an hour or two.
Leng Sa leaned on Fu Fengcheng's shoulder and gradually fell asleep to the sound of the train moving forward.
Fu Fengcheng lowered his head and glanced at the person who had slept by himself, and reached out and took her into his arms.
Although the car was warm and didn't feel cold, he still pulled the blanket next to her and put it on her, then picked up the book that Leng Sa half-read next to him, lowered his head and continued to read.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, people in Beijing continue to immerse themselves in the festive festivities, but the platform of Beijing Railway Station is very busy.
Zhang Jingzhi was standing on the edge of the platform wearing an iron gray coat and a scarf around her neck.
Even in the cold wind, the Zhang family's eldest and young master are very personable, attracting the passing girls to stop and take a peek.
The surrounding reporters kept taking pictures of Zhang Dashao, hoping to take the best photos to make their overtime work during the Spring Festival more meaningful.
Xiao Yiran, who was also on the platform on the other side, was not so dashing, and the dignified third prince folded his hands in a corner sheltered from the wind. If it weren't for his handsome face and well-dressed appearance, he might be regarded as an ordinary old man squatting in the corner to avoid the wind.
The entourage who came with the third prince looked at the third prince of their own family, and then looked at the eldest prince of the Zhang family who was not far away from Yushu Linfeng, and couldn't help turning his head in pain, showing a horrible expression.
Xiao Yiran is not ashamed but proud, and said confidently, "Fu Fengcheng will be here in half an hour. Now the weather in Beijing is so cold, you let me stand in the wind to drink the wind? Where did the surname Fu come from so big? face? But... if it's to pick up the young lady, it's worth it."
"Third prince, don't say this in front of Young Master Fu." I heard that Young Master Fu's injury is about to heal, but you can't beat him.
Xiao Yiran rolled her eyes, "Am I stupid? Why is Fu Fengcheng's freight so good?"
Half an hour later, with the long honk of the train entering the station, the platform that had been quiet because of the extreme cold suddenly became lively.
The people who came to pick up people and the onlookers all stood on the edge of the platform and stretched their necks to look forward. Some of these people really came to greet their relatives and friends, while others made a special trip to watch the eldest young master of the Fu family and his wife.
Fu Fengcheng used to be a celebrity in Beijing, but he rarely appeared in newspapers and magazines. Last year, he was seriously injured and nearly disabled. Everyone thought that a generation of heaven's favorite was just disabled. Who knew that he would come back after only a year.
Naturally, all the newspapers in the capital were excited, and all the newspapers were eager to take the latest photos of Mr. Fu. It would be even better if they could interview Mr. Fu.
The train stopped in front of the platform, and Zhang Jingzhi greeted her calmly with a smile on her face.
Soon the car door was opened, and several young people in uniforms from the six southern provinces stepped out first.
Standing outside the car door and turning around, facing the open car door, only then did everyone see that Fu Fengcheng was still getting out of the car in a wheelchair.
For a while, everyone didn't know whether to be disappointed or what. Young Master Fu was still sitting in a wheelchair. Obviously, his legs were not good, but his appearance was really the same as before except for sitting in a wheelchair.
Even, it looks sharper and stronger than before in the capital. It seems that the upheaval of the year has not caused him any trauma. How depressing and irritable Fu Dashao, who used to report to the long report, after being seriously injured, were all made up out of nothing by them.
But they didn't have time to think too much, because all eyes quickly fell on the other.
The one who got off the bus with Mr. Fu was a tall and slender woman.
She was wearing a long light-colored coat, and her long, slightly curly hair was braided down her shoulders. After sitting on the train for several days, there is not the slightest tiredness on his face, the makeup is light, but the eyes are still bright, and the smile is sweet.
Seeing her smile, it's as if the whole cold winter has suddenly warmed up. But unfortunately, she was bowing her head and smiling at Fu Fengcheng who was beside her, and some people couldn't help but feel pity in their hearts.
"Young Master Fu, Madam Young Master, welcome..." Zhang Jing took a step forward and said to the two of them with a smile, and there was a sound of camera shooting in the surroundings.
People just came to their senses, and without thinking too much, they hurried to get the best shot.
Many people have seen the photos of Mrs. Fu's eldest young lady in newspapers, but because the printing is somewhat distorted, how can black and white newspaper pictures compare to real people?
The young lady in front of me really deserves the title of the first beauty in Yongcheng.
Unfortunately, before Zhang Jingzhi's words were finished, a figure came in, "Fu Fengcheng, you are here."
Xiao Yiran appeared in front of Zhang Jingzhi very naturally, smilingly watching the two of them show off the graceful and unrestrained manners of their royal children, bowed slightly and saluted Leng Sa, "Little sister-in-law, welcome here. The capital." There was absolutely no decadent look of squatting in the corner just now with his hands folded.
Leng Sa couldn't help but smile, "Third prince, long time no see."
"It's really been a long time. I heard that the two of you have been waiting here for me early in the morning. How is it? Are you moved?" Xiao Yiran said with a smile.
Fu Fengcheng glanced at him and said, "You're blocking Young Master Zhang."
"Do you really want to talk to him?" Xiao Yiran raised her eyebrows.
Zhang Jingzhi, who was blocked by him, sighed helplessly, and turned from behind Xiao Yiran to make up for what he had just interrupted, "Welcome to the capital, I have been ordered to meet you. It's ready outside. The car is over, why don't we talk to the place where we are staying? After all... it's quite cold here."
Fu Fengcheng nodded slightly, "It's work."
"It should be done." Zhang Jingzhi smiled, then turned his head to Leng Sa with a smile, "Young madam, stay safe, welcome to the capital."
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang came to pick us up personally." Leng Sa nodded and smiled.
The third prince deeply felt that he had been treated coldly, and glanced at the two of them resentfully.
It's a pity that no one listened to him.
Seeing that they were about to leave, the reporters finally rushed up to interview Mr. Fu and Mrs. Mrs.
However, Zhang Jingzhi is obviously very experienced in this, and immediately brought people forward to form a human wall to isolate the reporters from the outside. The second human wall formed by the heavily armed elites from the six southern provinces made the reporters dare not offend.
Some reporters were unwilling to ask questions directly across the human wall, but Fu Fengcheng obviously did not intend to answer, and the group strolled towards the outside of the platform.
"The car is outside, and the two people's residences have already been arranged, and the people brought by Mr. Fu are also arranged near the residences. If there is any negligence, please forgive the two of you." Go, Zhang Jingyi said with a smile.
Leng Sa said, "Young Master Zhang, you're welcome. It's really hard work for Young Master Zhang to come and pick us up in person on such a cold day."
Zhang Jingzhi shook his head, "It's all of you who are really working hard, I'm just a helper, it's all my job. Song Shao and Long Shao arrived yesterday, and a few others will be late, but that's all. It's been a day or two."
The platform had already exited during the talk, and a line of cars had stopped outside the station.
Zhang Jingzhi asked Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng to get on the front car, and the rest of the people also got on the big truck at the back in an orderly manner.
Xiao Yiran abandoned her car and squeezed into Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng. Zhang Jingzhi had no choice but to let him squeeze in. Fortunately, it was an extended car, and the five drivers were not crowded.
The place arranged by the cabinet for them is a villa area in the west of the city near the suburbs outside the city. This place is large, beautiful, and quiet. It is a place for the elites of the capital to relax and unwind. The accompanying elites were placed in two small buildings next to the villa area, so there was nothing to worry about, and there was a large stadium for training without disturbing the people.
Zhang Jingzhi has been in charge of receiving guests a lot these days. After delivering them, they exchanged a few words and left.
Before leaving, I only said that Zhang Xiang will hold a banquet at his official residence tomorrow night to welcome the young marshals, and I would like to invite everyone to attend. The invitation of the prime minister of the dignified cabinet could not be refused. Fu Fengcheng nodded and agreed, so he let Zhang Jingzhi go out.
Seeing Zhang Jingzhi go out, Xiao Yiran, who was still normal, immediately collapsed on the sofa like noodles, "Every time I see Zhang Jingzhi, I feel tired."
Fu Fengcheng glanced at him, "How do you know he doesn't feel tired when he sees you?"
Leng Sa sat on the side and smiled, "I think Zhang Shao is very good."
Because the train was late, the dignified young master of the Zhang family stood on the cold and windy platform in winter and waited for them for nearly an hour without being unhappy at all. Just this kind of mind... or the city government, it is not comparable to ordinary people.
Xiao Yiran said lazily, "That's how I feel tired, little sister-in-law, don't you think this person is scary? Fortunately, I didn't go out to greet him just now, otherwise I might have to stand with him in the wind for an hour. "
Fu Fengcheng said, "Don't talk nonsense, I made a special trip to the station to pick you up in the cold weather. Why didn't I know you had such a deep friendship?"
In fact, it's not a matter of friendship. Xiao Yiran is not someone who can do this kind of thing. Knowing that someone would pick them up, he would just run here first to lie comfortably on the sofa and wait for them.
Xiao Yiran sat up, touched her nose and said, "Okay, I'm just here to warn you, be careful these days, especially when you meet my cousin."
"His legs are broken, he is still jumping?" Fu Fengcheng frowned.
Xiao Yiran was instantly enraged, "Hey, that's an interesting thing to say, you've always forgotten your feelings, you're still half-crippled now." I didn't see you jumping around less.
Leng Sa asked curiously, "You mean Prince Xiao?"
"Who else could there be?" Xiao Yiran rolled his eyes, "I said that Governor Fu was ruthless enough to attack, Xiao Haoran is almost dead. Order someone to the capital? He's really not afraid of my cousin going crazy."
It is difficult for a strong dragon to suppress a local snake. The Xiao family has no power now, but after all, it is a royal family that has been entrenched in the capital for hundreds of years. It is true to say that it is a local snake.
"Uh..." Leng Sa blinked, not knowing what to ask for a while.
Xiao Yiran is very calm, "This matter...it doesn't matter whether the evidence is proved or not, everyone knows it well. Anyway, no one will tell it on the surface, but it is precisely because of this that you have to be careful. ."
Things that can't be said on the surface can only be solved secretly. He is not really worried about Fu Fengcheng, he is worried that his cousin is going to die.
Fu Fengcheng nodded, "Got it."
So nice to talk?
Xiao Yiran looked at Fu Fengcheng suspiciously, Fu Fengcheng glanced at him lightly, and asked, "What else?"
Xiao Yiran said, "It's not a big deal, oh... By the way, Song Lang said he wanted to settle the bill with you, what happened to him?"
Fu Fengcheng calmly said, "I don't know, you should ask him about this."
Xiao Yiran shook his head repeatedly, "Forget it, I don't agree with him. But since you offended him, you better be careful, maybe he will join forces with Long Yue. By the way, your Fu family this time... Who leads the team?"
Fu Fengcheng couldn't lead the team while he was still in a wheelchair. He remembered... he seemed to have seen Fu Lao Si before. Suddenly he shuddered, "Could it be your fourth child?"
The Fu family is over! It's no wonder that Fu Laosi can do better than Long Yue and Song Lang.
"Should I hurry up and change the bet? This is the rhythm of losing money." The third prince murmured.
Fu Fengcheng glanced at him and said meaningfully, "You will know when the time comes."
