Yan Funing lowered her voice: "In that case, what should we pay attention to?"
The man said quietly: "Daily life is as usual. If there are other people in the house, do not discuss politics."
Yan Funing nodded. He bowed his head and said: "There is no one else around at the moment. Can I ask, are you going to be on duty today?"
The man said: "Starting tomorrow."
I am afraid that someone will come over later. Even though Yan Funing wanted to ask something else, she swallowed it down and stopped asking.
The two ate in silence.
At this time, Li Xinheng and Caiyu came over.
Yan Funing heard the footsteps and raised her head: "Brother Li, Caiyu, where did you eat?"
Caiyu said: "It's in the dining room next to the kitchen."
The housekeeper said that they would eat there from now on, but it was better not to tell the lady.
Li Xinheng lowered his head and said sheepishly: "Young Master has a coachman and a guard by his side, what about me from now on?"
Fu Ciyi did not answer immediately.
To avoid embarrassment, Yan Funing said: "Brother Li will just follow me from now on."
"The title must be changed." Fu Ciyi said suddenly.
What's your name, Brother Li? It sounds weird.
Li Xinheng smiled shyly: "Girl, just call me Xinheng."
"Still call me girl?"
Fu Ciyi's voice was cold.
In the past, he could not care about it, but now he still has a girl, so does she count as his wife?
Li Xinheng reacted: "Young lady, just call me Xinheng."
"Calling Young Madam is a bit strange." Yan Funing still wasn't comfortable with the title "Young Madam".
Fu Ciyi glanced at her.
Yan Funing had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
The couple had not finished their meal when the concierge presented them with a post.
"Master, please take a look!"
Fu Ciyi took the post, glanced at it briefly, and quickly flipped the post upside down on the table.
At the moment of flipping, Yan Funing caught a glimpse of the word "Prime Minister" on the post.
So the context is still the same as in the dream.
Fu Ciyi hurriedly finished his meal, took the post, and said quietly: "I will probably be home late today, so you don't have to wait for me."
"Okay." Yan Funing was very calm.
She watched him go away with clear eyes, then raised her eyes and said to Li Xinheng: "From now on, when there are no other people around, you can call me girl."
Calling "young lady" always reminds her that she is with someone relationship.
Call "girl" and she is just her.
Li Xinheng nodded: "Okay, girl."
After Yan Funing finished her lunch, the housekeeper gathered the servants in the mansion.
"Two of the guards and the coachman followed the young master out of the door, and everyone else is here."
The housekeeper introduced the servants in the mansion one by one.
Yan Funing discovered that except for the cook and the rough lady, the other servants were all men.
After getting to know the servant, she didn’t want to stay in the front yard any longer and returned to the main yard. Caiyu came in with a stack of story books and medical books, which she could just look through.
She spent the entire afternoon reading in her room.
During dinner, the housekeeper sent someone to call her, so she went to the front yard dining room.
She was the only one sitting and eating in the huge mansion.
There are quite a few people waiting on the side.
As night falls, someone has not returned yet. Yan Funing puts down her chopsticks after finishing her meal and is escorted back to her room by Caiyu Xiang.
Seeing that her young lady had not spoken much since the afternoon, Caiyu was worried: "Miss, is she in a bad mood?"
Yan Funing shook her head: "I'm fine."
——
It was night, and the stars were lonely.
Fu Ciyi came back with the cool night breeze.
When he pushed open the door and entered, Yan Funing smelled the smell of alcohol on his body.
"What official position were you awarded today?" "From the sixth rank, compiled by the Hanlin Academy."
Fu Ciyi pinched his eyebrows, looking tired.
Yan Funing nodded, the Prime Minister is a civil servant, and the Hanlin Academy is probably under the Prime Minister's jurisdiction.
If the prime minister wants to fight for something for his beloved daughter, it is very convenient.
Suddenly, many things seemed to become clear.
"It's late at night, go to bed early."
After that, she went to bed and went to bed first.
Early the next morning, Fu Ciyi went out early to go on duty.
Yan Funing understood that he would not come back for lunch. After all, it was his first day on duty.
But in the evening, he did not return.
Lu Wenfeng is here.
"Funing, what do you think of my official uniform?"
He raised his sleeves and turned around in front of Yan Funing.
Yan Funing nodded and praised: "That's right, where are you on duty?"
"If you study in the Hanlin Academy now and pass the Shujishi examination, you can be awarded the seventh rank. If not, you can only be awarded the title of director of the ministry or be sent to a local county as a county magistrate."
"You have to work hard."
Lu Wenfeng nodded: "By the way, where is Ci Yi?"
"I don't know either." Yan Funing said to the passing guard, "Young Master "You haven't returned yet. Do you know where you went?"
The guard handed over his hand and said, "Back to you, Madam, the young master had dinner at the Prime Minister's Mansion last night. At that time, my subordinates heard at the Prime Minister's Mansion that it was the day when the young master won the first prize. , dinner was also served at the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Today, I guess it is still at the Prime Minister’s Mansion.”
The corners of Yan Funing's lips moved slightly.
In this way, on the night when the list was released and paraded, someone was entertaining at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
He has had dinner at the Prime Minister's Mansion for three consecutive days.
And in their so-called "new home", he has not had dinner with her yet.
Immediately waved his hand and said to the guard: "Go down."
The guard clasped his fists and retreated.
Lu Wenfeng said: "The Imperial Academy is in charge of the Prime Minister, so it is normal for Ciyi to be invited to the banquet."
Yan Funing nodded.
Lu Wenfeng said again: "Ci Yi edited and compiled for the Hanlin Academy. The second-ranked and third-ranked scholars only edited, and we, the second-class Jinshi, need to take the exam to become the Hanlin Academy's common people. The difference between the first level It's right there, Ci Yi has a bright future."
Yan Funing nodded again.
It is said that there is no cabinet without Hanlin.
If someone wants to be a powerful minister, he must go through the Hanlin Academy. Having a background in the Hanlin Academy can be said to be a step closer to the cabinet.
Everything is developing in the direction of the book.
The only difference is that now she is his wife in name only.
But he does not allow her to return to Ling County. What is the difference between this and detaining her in another courtyard?
Not thinking about the bad things, Yan Funing smiled at Lu Wenfeng: "Where do you live now?"
As she said that, she raised her hand to motion for him to sit down.
Lu Wenfeng lifted his robe and sat down: "The imperial court also gave me a mansion. Of course it cannot be compared to Ciyi's mansion. It is not far from your door. I will come and show you another day."< br>
It's getting dark today, so I'd better clean up the house another day before inviting people over.
"Okay." Yan Funing smiled, "Let's stay and eat." She raised her eyes and looked at Zhang Tong and Zhang Tie, "You guys also eat together."
Zhang Tong nodded hurriedly: "Good, very good,"
Zhang Tie also said: "Although our young master was given a mansion, there are no servants given by the imperial court in the mansion, so we are worried about having no food to eat."< br>
Hearing this, Yan Funing smiled and said to Caiyu: "Go to the kitchen and ask for a few more dishes."
"Okay." Caiyu agreed happily.
Since yesterday, it was rare for her to see her young lady smile.
Most of an hour passed and dinner was put on the table.
Yan Funing ordered Li Xinheng to sit down with Caiyu, plus three masters and servants, Lu Wenfeng, and the six of them ate happily together.
“It’s still as good as this, it’s like going back to the guild hall to prepare for the exam.” Lu Wenfeng sighed, “It’s just that Ciyi is a little busier.” (End of Chapter)
