Chapter 714: Inside the Fenghua Building

Jingzhe is the third solar term among the twenty-four solar terms in the year. When Jingzhe comes, the yang energy rises, the temperature warms up, spring thunder suddenly moves, and rain increases. The wheat that has been winter begins to turn green and needs to be fertilized and irrigated; the blank farmland that has been dried for a winter must also be plowed and planted. This is a very important time for farmers, so the plan for the year lies in the spring.

In order to get a good omen, there were endless families who came to various temples to invite the Jingzhe Fushui, and the Jiang family and the Ren family were no exception. The brother could not come back in the military camp. Jiang Liu instructed the Ren family to be responsible for daily chores, Yanping, the manager of the Ren family, who was responsible for daily chores. "It is said that the Fushui in Qingxu Temple is the best. Don't forget to send someone to pick it up these days and then send it to the village."

Fu Shui's theory is unfounded, but the people are convinced of this. Jiang Liu naturally followed the customs and did not miss every ceremony that prayed for a good harvest. This was not because she believed in these things, but because the managers of the farm and the tenants, and the workers believed in them.

"Yes." Yanping should go down.

Jiang Liu thought about it and said, "Get some talisman water from Lingbao Temple and sprinkle it in the fields."

Lingbao Temple is a newly built Taoist temple, and its statement is naturally not as good as those Taoist temples that have been open for hundreds of years. Judging from Yuanzi and his kindness, Jiang Liu certainly wants to support it.

After arranging my brother's farm, Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu arranged for someone to get the talisman water for Liujiazhuang. In addition to the talisman water, there are also grain seeds, fertilizers, oxen, long-term workers and other things that need to be arranged. Although Jiang Liu doesn't have to do it in person, the managers of the farm will come to the house to report to her according to the rules, and she nodded and praised her before she could go back to do the business.

Jiang Liu and his sister had just sent Wang He, the manager of Liujiazhuang, away, and Shuqiu walked in quickly. He said in Jiang Liu's ear with his children, "Miss, the eldest lady of the Marquis of Yijiang Palace, went to Qingxu Temple with her children."

Jiang Liu reacted for a moment before remembering that the eldest wife of the Yijiang Marquis Mansion was the wife of the former Yijiang Marquis, Liu Ruyan. In the past few days, various temples are holding Jingzhe Ceremony, and many government officials send housekeepers or managers to go there. Liu Ruyan and Liu Xi went to Qingxu Temple, which should be because the drunk man was not drinking. Jiang Liu asked, "Is there any movement in Liu Juntang?"

Shuqiu said with regret, "Young Master Liu is seriously ill in bed and has not left for many days."

When Liu Juntang went to the half-door Xiang to ask for tea, although he was a little decadent, he didn't seem to be lying flat. As for whether he was pretending to be sick or was really sick, it had nothing to do with Jiang Liu. She just ordered, "Continue to send someone to stare to see if Liu Juntang will contact the people from the Yijiang Marquis' Mansion."

If Liu Juntang and Yijiang Hou Mansion join forces, Jiang Liu will place the Liu family on the blacklist that cannot be done business together.

After Shuqiu left, Jiang Muyan thought, "Today is not the day of the Imperial College for rest, why did Mrs. Liu take Liu Shen to Qingxu Temple?"

After Liu Cheng was stripped of the title of the Prince of the Marquis of Yijiang, the Marquis of Yijiang began to focus on cultivating his grandson Liu Shen and Liu Lun. Such days should not be allowed to let Liu Shen skip school to Qingxu Temple. Jiang Liu speculated, "Does he want Liu Shen to visit Liu Juntang?"

Jiang Muyan nodded, "I think so too. Liu Juntang is ill, and the person who is most suitable for visiting him in the Yijiang Marquis Mansion is Liu Shen."

Liu Juntang is a junior and a son. Both brothers Yijiang Hou and Liu Cheng are not suitable for appearance, so they can only let Liu Shen or Liu Lun, who are of the same generation as Liu Juntang.

Jiang Liu sighed, "It seems that the Yijiang Marquis Mansion is Liu Juntang in the truth." Liu Xi is very good-looking and looks very smart, but if Liu Juntang marrys her, she will sooner or later.

Jiang Liu really didn't want the second handsome man in the Great Zhou to end up like this, but this is not something she should have, she can manage.

Jiang Muyan said calmly, "If the same surname does not intermarry, if the Liu family respects the rules, they will never let Liu Juntang marry Liu Xi."

There is indeed a saying that there is no intermarriage in the Great Zhou Dynasty. People who pay attention to it do the same, but some people who don’t care about it think that intermarriage can be intermarriage with different surnames. The Yijiang Hou Mansion is obviously a non-particular family, so it depends on whether the Liu family in Xinzhou pays attention to it.

However, Jiang Liu held his chin and said, "Liu Cheng's wife should know that Liu Xi is Liu Cheng's concubine daughter. Did she willingly take her son to help Liu Xi, or was she sent by her elders?"

Jiang Muyan said confidently, "No matter what the situation is, it means that in the eyes of the Marquis of Yijiang and his wife, Liu Shen's status is no longer as good as that of the second wife's legitimate son Liu Lun."

"Sister is right!" Jiang Liu's eyes lit up. Regarding the relationship between the inner resident, the legitimate and illegitimate, and the marriage, the sister was always beyond Jiang Liu's expectations. Liu Shen would be sent to the front station to be a lobbyist, and there must be such reasons.

Liu Shen, who was posing as a noble young man and sitting upright on the horse's back, was in a very good mood at this time.

Since his father was dismissed from his position for unspeakable reasons, Liu Shen faced his classmates who were alienated from him in the Imperial College, and returned home to face his father who could only beat and scold him, and his life was extremely depressing. He even secretly envied the Wang brothers who were sent to the border Wang Fangyu and Lijing. He also wanted to leave Kang'an and fled to a place where no one knew him and started again.

But his father was reluctant to leave the Yijiang Marquis Mansion, so he had to live with the frustration. How could he not be happy if he could temporarily escape from the Zhong and Imperial College today? But when he dismounted in front of Fenghua Tower, Liu Shen's mood became darker again.

Because there are students who went to Beijing to take the exam, Liu Shen is now the son of a criminal minister and can no longer pass the imperial examination in his life. He does not want to enter here, but his mother and aunt will not listen to him!

After Liu Lan followed her mother into the Fenghualou room, she said happily, "Mom, my daughter heard that Liu Juntang, a son of Jiangnan who lives here, is talented and outstanding. Can we see him?"

Liu Xi, who was thinking about how to mention Liu Juntang naturally, immediately responded, "I heard that Mr. Liu is sick, sister-in-law, I met Mr. Liu in Dayunjing Temple last winter. Since we are here, are we..."

There are no elders here, so Liu Ruyan won’t give Liu Xi a face and asked with a half-smile, “You are a girl who is not married, how could you meet a foreign man?”

"That's it!" Liu Lan immediately agreed.

Liu Shen frowned impatiently and turned to look out the window, indicating that everything in the room had nothing to do with him.

Liu Xi lowered his eyes to cover the anger in his eyes, and explained as if shy and anxiously, "My sister-in-law misunderstood. I just met him by chance in the main hall of the temple and greeted each other."

"Is that so?" Liu Ruyan responded gently and smiled, "Although I have never met Liu Juntang, he has the same surname as us. He was a family five hundred years ago and was considered a relative. Shen'er."

Liu Shen looked back at his mother, wondering what she called her to do.

Liu Ruyan looked at her son lovingly, "Since we have a chance to eat here, we are destined to be with him. You may take advantage of this time to visit him. One is to visit him, and the other is to ask him for teaching."

Seeing that Liu Shen really frowned and refused to go, Liu Xi immediately said, "Sister-in-law, will I go with Shen'er?"

Liu Ruyan held the sarcasm at the corner of her mouth, and her eyes turned kind and stern, "Shen'er, do you understand what your mother said?"

Liu Shen stood up with his fists clenched, shook his sleeves and left the door.

"Sister-in-law, I'll go and say a few words to Shen'er and come back." Liu Xi was anxious and quickly got up and chased him out.
