Chapter 1110 Near
After that, I didn’t know how Haijiao asked for information or how to communicate with Zhou Yijun. There was no bad news in Chang'an, and naturally there would be no intention in the palace, so that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo would go to Beijing to take care of her old age.
After moving into the new house of Zhou's four houses, they have been living in a low-key and peaceful manner. They have not promoted the need to take my mother to support me, nor have they mentioned my father's condition to anyone. Zhou Xuejun stayed in her new home for three days, accompanied by her parents, brothers and sisters, and then returned to Cining Palace with Wu Qiong. As for what she talked to her cousin Zhou Wenjun during her time at home, Haitang was unknown. She only vaguely heard that Zhou Wenjun sent someone to her parents' home in Chang'an to send an urgent letter, but she was not sure what the content of the letter was.
Apart from the four families of Zhou, the Hai brothers and sisters have no other way to find out the relevant information. However, after more than ten days, my cousin Xie Wenzai heard some rumors from her friend Tao Ge Lao. It is said that the Duke of Zhenguo was not in an optimistic state and might not last long. Miss Xuejun of Zhou's family was worried about her grandparents, so Xinjun comforted her and said that she could take the Duke of Zhenguo to the capital for a long time in the future. In that way, when Miss Xuejun wanted to meet her relatives in the future, she could summon people to the palace to meet at any time.
Zhou Xuejun was raised by her grandmother and mother since she was a child and has a deep relationship with them. Although she can reunite with her mother now, she lives separately inside and outside the palace. She doesn’t meet for many times, let alone be separated from her grandmother. It is very likely that she will find it difficult to meet again in this life. Xinjun was worried about his fiancée and wanted to pick up his fiancée's grandmother to relieve her missing family, which was also his caring for Zhou Xuejun. But this arrangement may not be what the Duke of Zhenguo or the others in the Zhou family want.
Xie Wenzai said: "Ge Lao Tao once advised the new king, but many people in the cabinet thought it was a good idea. The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was in the capital to support her elderly care. I think several major generals of the Zhou family were guarding the border and would be more cautious in their actions."
It was just a matter of being the only one who wanted to keep the Duke of Zhenguo in the capital for the quality of his qualifying.
Although Master Tao is the chief minister in the cabinet now, he cannot do a one-man show. The members of the cabinet have complex components and have their own thoughts. Sometimes they will inevitably have different opinions from Mr. Tao. Mr. Tao Ge's reasoning cannot be refuted at will, and can only mediate as much as possible in it to achieve the most ideal result. For example, this time, the new king may not necessarily want the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo to go to Beijing for quality, but he just wants his fiancée to live a better life and did a bad thing with kind intentions, but the cabinet thought this was a good opportunity, which made the Zhou family embarrassed.
Xie Wenzai didn't agree with the Duke Zhenguo's wife coming to Beijing. First, Duke Zhenguo is still alive now, and before he dies, he is thinking about taking his wife into the capital as a hostage. This idea is too cold and disgusting. It is not surprising that the late emperor did this when he was there. However, after the new emperor succeeded to the throne, he should show kindness and kindness, so that the world knows that the new emperor is different from the late emperor's behavior, so as not to mention the fact that the officialdom is in decline. Second, Duke Zhenguo herself is not young anymore and has been living in Chang'an. How could she change to the capital to live? Not to mention the fatigue of carriages, can she stand it? What if she is not suitable for the local environment after entering Beijing? She is the wife of a hero, the eldest sister-in-law of the Empress Dowager, and the grandmother of the future Empress Zhou. She is the elder of the royal family and has always been virtuous. Why should she do anything to do?
Xie Wenzai also advised Master Tao, and Master Tao also felt the same way. Unfortunately, the cabinet's opinions could not be unified, and the Wumen old students who were standing on the side of the Zhou family in the past could no longer openly support the Zhou family as they used to do. Now that the Sun family has fallen, the Zhou family has made contributions to supporting the rescue, and there are no bright political enemies in the court. The Wu family members have to alienate themselves from the Zhou family, so as not to attract suspicion from the palace and the cabinet, and it is often not convenient to speak directly for the Zhou family.
Now, the new king has not issued a public order to summon the wife of Duke Zhenguo to Beijing, and the Duke Zhenguo's mansion has not clearly stated that it is going to separate. On Thursday, the general even said that he would take his mother to Beijing to support him. All parties are quietly waiting for further news from Chang'an and the palace. What position can the Wumen students make suggestions?
Xie Wenzai was worried about this, and he felt that after entering Beijing, it was much easier to do things than when he was in Chang'an.
Haitang and Haijiao went to comfort him, and then diverted his attention from the school affairs, so that he could worry more about school construction and enrollment matters, which made him slightly forget his worries.
The school jointly run by Xie, Cao and Lu is based on the Wu family's outer courtyard and its structure is relatively simple. Among the series of projects that start construction after the spring, it is the fastest. It has basically taken shape now, with only the interior decoration left. Since Cao Gengyun sent off his children and grandchildren, he ran to the construction site every day, and occasionally went back to the Cao house to sleep. At other times, he simply moved back to accompany Xie Wenzai and Lu Bannian. Under his leadership, Lu Bannian often went to the school. On the contrary, Xie Wenzai had many other things to worry about, so he went to the school less than his two friends. But even if Xie Wencai has too many things to worry about, he will never leave the school alone. Now Haitang and Haijiao have taken out the admission regulations and course arrangements to ask him about his opinions, and asked him how to arrange the school he would teach in the future and the private house he lived in, so he also thought seriously.
Most of the school’s project has been completed, but the east wing where Haijiao lives in the main courtyard has been completely completed.
The two rooms inside and outside the entire room were repaired, the walls of the roof tiles were replaced, the carved glass windows were rebuilt, the kang was rebuilt, and the white walls were painted. Now the inside and outside of the house are completely renewed. Just waiting for the furniture that the dealer sends to the dowry, the newlyweds can move in with their bags when they get married!
On the day of completion, Haitang pulled his brother Changhaijiao and followed his grandparents to visit the new house. He could find any shortcomings in time and make rectifications. He must ensure that his sister-in-law Zhuang Minyi can live a comfortable and comfortable life after moving in. For this reason, Haitang often acted as a messenger for her brother, sending letters to her future sister-in-law Zhuang Minyi, who was temporarily living nearby, asking her about her requirements for the furniture decoration of her new house. It is also possible that she has arranged the new house to suit her sister-in-law's preferences from the beginning, so as not to change the decorations in the future.
Although Zhuang Minyi was shy, she knew the Hai family for many years and had been together for a long time, but she was not embarrassed. She privately told Haitang a lot of her thoughts about her new home, and then took Haitang to see the dowry furniture that her father and grandfather found someone to build for her. Haitang took the opportunity to measure the size of the furniture and draw the drawings when he went home, so that it would be convenient for Haigui to figure out how to arrange the new house.
The dowry furniture prepared by the banker for Zhuang Minyi is basically complete, and you can move into the Hai family just by waiting for the auspicious day. The dowry furniture prepared by the Hai family for Haitang has just been put on the first lacquer. If it is actually finished, it will take some more time to wait.
Although Haitang participated in the selection and design of these furniture, and had also inquired about the size and layout of Jin Jiashu in advance, there were still many variables before the completion, and Haitang did not dare to be careless.
It’s a pity that she can’t send someone to the Jin family’s main courtyard to measure the size. She wanted to ask Jin Jiashu, but he was still recuperating at the hot spring farm and took away his confidants who were familiar with the Hai family. She has not returned yet, and Haitang has nowhere to find anyone to find.
However, with the completion of the east wing of Haijiayuan and the increasingly complete dowry of the dealer, the wedding dates between Haijiao and Zhuang Minyi gradually approached. The Hai family sent a post to Jin Jiashu and invited him to visit the banquet at home. It's time for Jin Jiashu to return to Beijing.
The more you get to the end, the harder it is to write.
