The Reborn Noble Daughter Chapter 159

Chapter 159 159. Not to marry

"You can't bring slaves to the academy, but bookboys can. I think Han Jiang who is serving you in your room is pretty good, so you can take him with you. As for Hehuan..."

Before he could finish his words, He Huan interrupted him, "This slave will never leave the house!"

"I didn't say I would let you leave the house. What I meant was that A Yao needs a maid. If you are willing, you can come to Ning'an Court as an errand and wait for Yun He to come back from the break."

Second brother's suggestion is not bad. It would be even better to bring her to the courtyard when the water is over without a trace.

But Hehuan was a little embarrassed. Feng Er saw her displeasure, so he asked, "What are you worried about?"

He Huan didn't know whether he should speak out his thoughts. He was afraid of being laughed at and also afraid of being disliked by his master.

"Don't be afraid, just say what you say in my house." Feng Jinyao's words seemed to be a reassurance, making Hehuan's disturbed mind calm again, and she gritted her teeth and said.

"Third Miss, you will be married in a few months, and I think you will have to discuss marriage. I am afraid that I will follow you to my uncle's house, if...if..."

 “What if it is? Don't take a nap...”

Feng Er was anxious. He had a bad temper to begin with, and hearing her talk like this was even more uncomfortable than cutting flesh with a knife.

Looking at her hesitant expression, Feng Jinyao understood instantly, "Are you afraid that I will make you a concubine to serve your uncle?"

He Huan breathed a sigh of relief when someone said what he was thinking in his heart. Then his cheeks became rosy and he was too shy to look up.

With a puff, Feng Er burst out laughing, "Hehuan, you girl is so funny. Other girls are eager to climb into the young master's bed and become his aunt, but why don't you die to be his aunt?"

His words made the other girls in the room look a little sullen at him.

"Second Young Master, please don't talk nonsense. Not all of us slaves like to climb into bed." Xiangqiu spoke first, her tone was a little harsh, and her eyes when looking at Feng Er were not as bright as usual.

Yunxu and Lamei simply knelt on the ground and said to Feng Jinyao, "Don't worry, young lady, I will not betray you even if I die."

All the girls in the room were aroused by Feng Er's words. They were shocked to realize that they had made a mistake, and hurriedly said, "Slip of the tongue, I didn't mean you, I didn't mean you."

A cold sweat broke out. He was not good at dealing with women after all. Seeing something was wrong, he mentioned Feng Yunhe and walked out.

“Ayao, you guys talk, you talk, I'll take Yunhe to talk to my sister-in-law.”

Feng Er ran faster than anyone else, as if he was being chased by a vicious dog.

Feng Jinyao had no choice but to raise her hand to help Yun Xu and others up, and said slowly, "Don't worry, I have no intention of getting married, and you don't have to be concubines. If there is someone who likes Hydrangea, just tell me, and I will definitely let you Marry with beauty."

She is not yet fifteen years old, why is she always so cold-hearted and unloved by anyone? Yunxu is worried, but she doesn't know what to do, so she can only do her best to serve her well.

Seeing that she was sure, Hehuan put aside her previous worries. The sisters in this house were all easy to get along with, so why wouldn't she do it?

"Thank you, Miss. That slave is licking his face to serve you. I hope you don't think that the slave is clumsy." "It doesn't matter, you can learn more from Xiangqiu. The relationship between the second door and the stewards must also be harmonious. It is necessary Sometimes I have to go out to do some things for me."

　　"I will only obey the young lady's instructions."

This change of masters was over in a few words, but at the same time in the Junhua Palace, the ministers were arguing over the same thing.

The Water Transport Department unexpectedly died, and Feng Hai, who was originally scheduled to be appointed, was also assassinated. I don't know who had a hand in it, but some secrets came out. Why did the Water Transport Department offend the River God, so the person who took office and the candidate were replaced? Everyone's life is in danger, and a good job suddenly turns into a hot potato, and no one dares to pick it up rashly.

“My dear friends, how is the discussion going? Is there anyone who can choose?”

Emperor Qi, who was sitting high above, was quite dissatisfied when he saw that they couldn't pick out a suitable person despite their choices. What kind of people did the imperial court usually support?

 It's really irritating to have no one to share your worries when the critical moment comes.

As soon as he said this, all the officials who were noisy at first booed. Seeing this scene, Emperor Qi became even more angry, "When you don't need people, you are the one who cheers. When it comes to using people, all of you will." Are you going to be silent? Am I treating you like waste?"

The sound was so loud that everyone fell to their knees in fright and shouted, "Your Majesty, calm down."

 “Calm down? I want a suitable candidate!”

Many officials were kneeling, but they looked up at Duke Wei. He and Prime Minister Bai were both veterans of the three dynasties, and there was no need to kneel down along with several princes who followed the government.

I saw Duke Wei's expression was calm, and seeing the atmosphere up to this point, he began to speak slowly, "Returning to Your Majesty, I think the most suitable candidate is Mr. Feng. Although he was assassinated in the mansion and needs to rest, it will only last a few months." The busiest time for the Water Transport Department is July and August. I think Lord Feng's health was almost in good condition by then, but now we can let the governors from the thirteen cities of Zhejiang and Zhejiang take turns taking care of it. What do you think, Your Majesty?”

 Fenghai?

I heard that Dr. Liu who went to treat him said that his injury could be serious, and it would be possible for him to rest for as long as half a year or as long as two or three years. Why did Duke Wei recommend him?

　　Before he could speak, the eldest prince beside him was not happy.

"What Mr. Guo said, the Feng family has been in trouble one after another, and now Mr. Feng is still lying on the bed and can't get out of bed. How can we say that he is the most suitable candidate?" He turned to Emperor Qi and said, "My son, I think the two Mr. Li, the governor of Zhejiang, is more suitable. Although he is the brother-in-law of his minister, he never avoids relatives when promoting talents. He has served in both Zhejiang and Zhejiang for many years. He presumably knows a lot about local affairs. If he is to be the director of water transportation, I will definitely be able to share my father's worries.”

The eldest prince will strongly recommend his brother-in-law to compete for this position. The most important thing is the three thousand soldiers and horses in the naval camp.

Over the years, he has been inferior to the Ninth Prince in terms of military achievements, and he has not been able to place his own people in the military department. If he wants to seek the position of prince, or even the supreme imperial power, it is useless without soldiers and horses.

There are many Ninth Princes, but they are always suppressed by him. In the final analysis, isn't it a matter of military power? Wouldn't it be a great thing if we could take this opportunity to obtain the naval camp?

How could Duke Wei not know what the eldest prince was thinking, he sneered and said, "How many disasters have happened in Zhejiang and Zhejiang during the more than ten years Mr. Li has been in office? One moment, the river dam bursts, and the other moment, locusts cause trouble. Even the good Jinling City is under his jurisdiction. The pirates have caused trouble twice, has the eldest prince forgotten?"

"You..." The eldest prince couldn't refute the pain point struck by Duke Wei. After all, this brother-in-law really didn't live up to his expectations.
