www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Young Master Fierce!
This night the Fu Mansion was very lively.
Fu Xiaoguan briefly talked about the things he did in Beijing. Of course, he did not talk about scolding the Minister of Rites until he vomited blood, nor did he talk about things like being assassinated that worried his family. Everything he said seemed simple and easy. It was done easily.
Fu Daguan had some guesses about the hardships involved, but Liu Niang believed it and was extremely impressed.
Finally, Mr. Fu once again asked a serious topic, "Son, do you have someone you like? Now the threshold of my Fu family is almost crossed by matchmakers, especially the girl from the Yao Ji family, who comes every now and then. I want to run to your Qiniang. According to my father, this girl is also very good, warm and virtuous, and she is good at giving birth... Are you going to decide this matter this time?"
The six mothers all looked at Fu Xiaoguan. Fu Xiaoguan touched his nose and said with a smile: "Don't worry about this. I already have someone I like. I'm going to Beijing. You can go there during the Chinese New Year." Can see. ”
"Who is it? Tell me." Qu Linglong asked curiously.
Although she is already married, she is still only sixteen years old after all, and her mentality is still that of a curious girl.
"Dong Shulan, the daughter of Dong Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs, once came to Linjiang to discuss the affairs of the imperial merchants."
"Ah, it's her, no wonder!" The six mothers were shocked. Fu Xiaoguan actually climbed up to become the Minister of Household Affairs. No wonder he was able to get along like a fish in water in Shangjing City. This kid was so awesome that he pitied the girls in Linjiang. Come to think of it, I am still thinking about it in my boudoir at this moment.
Fu Daguan frowned. He knew very well what was going on in his family. Although he once told Fu Xiaoguan that his wife should be like Dong Shulan, but now when Fu Xiaoguan said it was Dong Shulan, he was still a little flustered.
If you don't belong to the right family, you may be betrayed.
"Does their family... have any objections?" Fu Daguan asked.
"What do you think? Shulan and I are in love, and besides, I am a Jinshi conferred by His Majesty."
Master Fu thought, yes, my son is also an official of the imperial court now, so this thing can probably be done.
"When are you planning to propose marriage? Dad needs to be prepared."
"Don't worry, let's talk about it in two or three years."
"How can this be done? Can Shulan wait? Can her parents agree? No, no, how about my dad come to Beijing to propose marriage before the New Year?"
"This... really needs to wait a little longer, because Shulan is not the only one."
"Uh..." Fu Daguan was stunned, but Liu Niang laughed, "The junior official is amazing. He found two people he likes within two months of going to Beijing, but he doesn't know who the other one is?"
"This, this other one is the Ninth Princess Yu Wenyun."
"Ah...!" Everyone exclaimed, even Mr. Fu was dumbfounded.
Princess!
No, isn’t the princess looking for a consort?
Is it possible that the ninth princess will get married?
How did this guy hook up with the princess?
Looking at the many jewels and jades he brought back, could it be that they were given by his in-laws, the emperor?
I guess so, otherwise why would the emperor inscribe the Fu Mansion in his own hand? This is to enrich the Fu family and raise the value of his son-in-law.
As a result, the six mothers looked at Fu Xiaoguan with more and more enthusiasm, especially the second mother, Qi Shi. At this moment, she felt that what Fu Xiaoguan just said was not a lie to him.
If Xiao Guan and Her Highness the Princess get married, it will not be a simple matter to find wealth for Xiao Xi. The focus of the Fu family may have to be moved to Jinling in the future.
"The situation here is a bit complicated, so dad, don't worry, I will take care of it. As for other people who come to propose marriage, just say that I already have a partner and let them give up. Don't talk about it. What happened to the princess and Dong Shulan, this will damage their reputation, so please remember it."
The banquet became more and more lively. Fu Daguan drank a lot and got drunk. Fu Xiaoguan didn't care about him. He had six mothers. He returned to the backyard and took Su Mo out of the Fu Mansion and went to Linjiang Academy.
Qin Bingzhong left Beijing two days earlier than him. He wanted to see Qin Bingzhong, mainly to take away Qin Chengye.
When he was in the Qin Mansion in Beijing, Qin Chengye said that he was very interested in this firearm. He also studied and discussed it with the old masters at the Firearms Bureau. There were many ways to improve it, but the court did not pay attention to this thing at all. Once funds are allocated, those methods can only remain on paper.
This boy has a very good characteristic. He likes to specialize in research and has a sharp mind. He talks endlessly about how to improve firearms, which is very close to the flintlock gun in his previous life.
Fu Xiaoguan thought he might have picked up a treasure. What's more, before leaving, Qin Chengye said that there were many masters in the Firearms Bureau who also wanted to leave. If Fu Xiaoguan was willing, he would go talk and see how many he could take away. In addition, Yu Wenyun asked Shang Guifei and hired a dozen master craftsmen from the foundry bureau.
This undoubtedly provided the first batch of talents for the research and development of Xishan firearms, and they are also the best batch of talents in the world.
When they arrived at Linjiang Academy, there were no lights in the pavilion next to the lotus pond. The weather was already cold, and Qin Bingzhong's body couldn't bear the winter cold.
He and Su Mo were led by the concierge to a two-story building inside, which was brightly lit.
Fu Xiaoguan met Qin Bingzhong and Qin Chengye in the study room on the second floor. Everyone was very happy and gathered together to make tea.
"When did you arrive in Linjiang?" Qin Bingzhong asked.
"This evening."
"Why don't you take a break and come back tomorrow."
"I'm going to Xishan tomorrow, time is tight...Chengye, how many masters have you brought out?"
Qin Chengye looked excited, like a bird that had finally escaped from its cage.
"Eight of them are all masters, but I gave them this salary according to what you said. You can't go back on your word."
Fu Xiaoguan laughed and patted Qin Chengye on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I just have a lot of money."
Qin Chengye immediately became happy and smiled: "I'm afraid you don't know how much money it will cost to transform this firearm into what you said."
"Don't be afraid, just do it with confidence and boldness."
Qin Bingzhong looked at Qin Chengye with complicated eyes. Since Qin Tong's death, he had always wanted to train his grandson to become a talented person. Qin Chengye's academic performance was not bad, but his preferences were different from those of many students.
Now Qin Chengye has finally taken another path. It can be seen that he likes her from the bottom of his heart, so let him go.
"Mo Wen has taken office. He said he will come to the river to see you when everything is settled."
"How did this happen? He is now a Taoist priest. It will be enough for me to visit him after I finish my work in Xishan."
Qin Bingzhong smiled slightly: "If you think about it, his success depends entirely on you."
Fu Xiaoguan was stunned, Qin Bingzhong shook his head, "I know your relationship with Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess, but I didn't expect you to be so important in Concubine Shang's heart!"
"I heard a piece of news before I left. I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I still have to tell you so that you can be prepared."
Fu Xiaoguan's expression suddenly became serious, and Qin Bingzhong said slowly: "The Huang people have accepted His Majesty's conditions, which means that they are going to build a palace to marry His Highness the Third Princess. Of course, it cannot be as grand as my Dayu Palace. According to the According to preliminary estimates, the palace will be completed in the autumn and winter of next year. When the time comes to send the third princess to the wilderness, you will most likely be the representative of the marriage mission."
"Who said this?"
"Your Royal Highness, Princess Yu, Yu Shurong!"
