After leaving Jiangnan, Doudou and his party never encountered harassment again.
The estimated time of the storm was very accurate, and the ship arrived at the boundary of Tongzhou on the afternoon of 22 September.
It is less than 100 miles away from Tongzhou Wharf, and the speed of the big official ship is simply not worth mentioning.
Doudou changed the habit of not liking out of the hatch for more than ten days, and took a few maids to lie on the side of the boat with great interest to enjoy the scenery along the canal.
When she arrived at Tongzhou Wharf, she could get off the boat, and it was not impossible to immediately change to a carriage back to Beijing, and she was not afraid of being tired at night, but it seemed too hasty.
And Doudou was still very anxious to return to Beijing more than ten days ago, but when she arrived in Tongzhou today, she felt a little weak.
Anyway, it was she who lied to her grandmother and daddy more than a year ago. said that he wanted to go back to Hangzhou, but he sneaked away from the boat with the fat wheat ear.
The letter left to his family said that he was going to find a master, but he found himself a fiancé, who was still a high-ranking little prince.
Although she has never regarded herself as a lady, but after living in the Yuan family for so many years, her grandmother has always raised her according to the high-ranking lady.
Her behavior will definitely disappoint her old man.
Grandmother said that as long as she was cheeky enough to rub into her arms and sprinkle a few coquettish sounds, she would definitely not be angry with herself.
Daddy had a headache there.
Although the big white rice balls must have blocked a lot of anger for her, she still didn't dare to see her father "Girl, are we going to Tongzhou for a night's rest" Cai Qing saw that her girl didn't speak for a long time, so she couldn't help but ask.
Doudou said: "I must rest for one night, I am tired and hasty in Beijing overnight, and it is not good to rely on Huo Xiao's momentum to let the soldiers defending the city open the city gate for us at night." ” Cai Qing nodded: "Besides, the girl should also dress up, now that you are a big girl, you can't be as casual as before." ” Doudou knew what Cai Qing meant, Huo Xiao's identity was there, and she had to take care of his face no matter how she could.
She smiled, Huo Xiao definitely didn't care about that, but there were thousands of pairs of eyes staring at him in the capital, and he really couldn't be as casual as before The two of them were talking, only to hear Cai Sang and Fat Mai Sui'er pointing to the stern of the boat and chattering.
Doudou turned his head to look, only to see an official ship that was not as large as the one he was riding on, but was much larger than ordinary ships, speeding towards them.
After a while, the two ships were already side by side, and a middle-aged man dressed as an attendant on the ship stood on the deck and called out to the girls: "May I ask if the ship is the second girl from the mansion of Lord Shang Shuyuan of the Ministry of Officials."
Cai Sang said: "Girl, this person is so rude, who has ever seen such a loud shout, let's ignore him" Doudou didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "Calling so loudly, it can be regarded as a bright and upright one, Mai Sui'er, you have a loud voice, ask him what he is looking for me." ” The maids couldn't help but smile and look at the fat ears of wheat.
The fat girl inhaled, opened her throat and shouted, "Who are you, what are you looking for my girl?"
The man saluted Doudou very respectfully and said: "Below is Pei Wang, who is often with the Marquis of Wuning, my Hou Ye returned to Beijing from the northwest, and I heard that the second girl of Yuan also sailed here, and the Hou Ye specially sent a servant to invite the girl to the boat for a while." ” Doudou smiled when she heard this, it turned out to be a slave in the little aunt's house, no wonder she was recognized at a glance.
It's just that his mouth full of lies is really good My uncle went to the northwest for disaster relief, and it is not surprising that he returned to Beijing after completing the task.
But who has heard that you need to take the canal to return to Beijing from the great northwest It's all wrong in the direction, okay A little woman who bullied her didn't understand the geography of mountains and rivers, people's feelings and people's livelihood Moreover, the Pei family planned to attack herself that day, but she withdrew again, and she heard Uncle Feng talk about it.
Pei Tingyan obviously waited around here for several days, and it would be strange to invite himself to his boat to talk about it People pay attention to salute first and then soldiers, and Wu Ninghou does the opposite, first soldiers and then salutes Doudou said to Fat Mai Sui'er: "Tell him that although the little uncle is a close relative, but after all, there is a difference between men and women, and it is inconvenient for this girl to go over to bother, and when she returns to Beijing, she will personally visit him and her little aunt." ” Fat Mai Sui'er nodded, and once again opened her loud voice and shouted what Doudou said over there.
Pei Wang was a little embarrassed, of course he knew that it was inconvenient for the Hou Ye to meet his wife's niece alone, but he was a slave, how could he make up his mind for his master.
He was struggling, and there was the sound of Pei Tingyan's steady footsteps behind him.
"Yuan Er girl has such a big shelf, don't you take this uncle Ben Hou in her eyes" As soon as he stood still, he said to Doudou, his voice was not very loud but a little gloomy.
The meeting with Huo Xiao two months ago was very unpleasant, and Pei Tingyan was already holding his breath in his heart.
But at that time, he purely wanted to vent his anger for his daughter, and he didn't know that Huo Xiao actually fell in love with Yuan Zongzhi's second daughter.
The decree of marriage is just to deceive people who don't understand the situation, with Huo Xiao's temperament, if Yuan Yuan is not the girl he likes, how can His Majesty the Emperor suddenly give him a marriage It's the same with Yuan Yuan's side, if he hadn't really hooked up with Huo Xiao, with the relationship between Yuan Zongzhi and His Majesty, His Majesty would not have given his daughter a marriage indiscriminately Pei Tingyan has a total of two sons and a daughter, and the most beloved is Pei Jinxin.
First, Pei Jinxin is his only daughter; Second, Pei Jinxin and Queen Pei look too similar.
When he was young, he didn't have the ability to make his sister more comfortable, but now he is in a high position, so he puts all his love on his daughter.
He still vividly remembers the tragic situation when Pei Jinxin returned to Beijing from the northwest last year.
I still have a colicing pain in my heart when I think about it.
What's more, the bane turned out to be Yuan Zongzhi's daughter, how could he not be angry It's a shame that his baby daughter still regards her as her best friend, is she worthy of Xin'er?
dared to hook up with his future son-in-law in private, and did not dare to meet his uncle alone It's a joke that such a girl cares about what men and women are defense Not to mention how much impact her marriage with Huo Xiao will have on the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Although the four princes seem to be a straw bag, they have Yuan Zheng in Wen and Huo Xiao in Wu, as if they have taken the lead among the five princes.
Will the Great Zhou Dynasty still have a foothold for his Pei family in the future?
If it weren't for the fact that this girl was Ah Xi's niece, he would have been able to go directly to the opposite boat to clean up this girl who didn't know the height of the sky.
Doudou and Pei Tingyan actually only met once at Gu Ge's old birthday banquet last year.
At that time, because she looked like a little aunt, she was regarded as a good friend by Pei Jinxin, and the little uncle also gave her a valuable meeting gift.
Although she can't say that she has a good impression of him, she has a good impression of him compared to her godfather Gu Gelao, who has eyes on the top of her head.
I didn't expect him to be such an unreasonable person.
Once again, she felt sorry for her father and aunt.
Sure enough, a good man has no good wife, and a good woman often sleeps with a clumsy husband t1706231537:
