Jiang Lu and others are still young after all. Compared with Jiang Zhenyuan, both their connections and their methods are not on the same level. With Jiang Zhenyuan coming forward, things will be much easier.

Several people were excited and talked about their own situations.

Jiang Zhenyuan listened carefully and asked a few questions from time to time. Everyone followed his words and began to recall the scene at that time. After Jiang Zhenyuan finished asking, it was already the hour of Hai.

No one used dinner, and he didn't feel it when he was talking. At this time, the conversation came to an end and he felt so hungry.

Jiang Zhenyuan was very apologized and said, "It was all for our Jianan to make everyone hungry."

I hurriedly ordered the kitchen to serve food, which I had been waiting for a long time.

But he couldn't eat anything himself. He wanted to go back and think about Jiang Xian carefully. He also thought that the children he had here would feel restrained, so he simply left Jiang Lu to accompany him and returned to the inner room alone.

Fang was also concerned about the movements in the study. When he saw Jiang Zhenyuan come back, he hurriedly stepped forward to help him change his clothes, and could personally set up the dishes and chopsticks to serve him for meals.

Jiang Zhenyuan couldn't help but sighed, looking at Fang, who was busy around him, and said, "When will you enter the palace tomorrow?"

After Fang told his close maid to give Jiang Zhenyuan some tea, he sat down next to Jiang Zhenyuan and said, "Let's leave tomorrow at the Mao hour."

The Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion is not far from the Forbidden City. It was too early to go to the Empress Dowager.

Jiang Zhenyuan said: "Then take this opportunity to settle Baoning's dowry with the Empress Dowager! Otherwise, the Empress Dowager would not hear any rumors when she was idle."

If Jiang Xian finally married Zhao Yi, the Ministry of Rites would not have few betrothal gifts. He didn't want to let Jiang Xian down, so he had to prepare a corresponding dowry for her. If he married Zhao Xiao, he had to prepare a generous dowry for Jiang Xian. Since neither the former nor the latter could be avoided, then just do it better.

"The things from the Princess' Mansion are left for her." He pondered, "In addition to the things left by the ancestors, Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was divided into two, half for Jiang Lu and half for Baoning to take away." Then he was afraid that Fang Shi was unhappy and explained, "Although money is something outside the body, without these things outside the body, life is not good. It's just that these things were given to Baoning, which was something that Baoning defended and saved his life. When he gave Alu, he was just eating a few more meals and wearing more clothes. Good men are determined to be in all directions. I believe that Alu, who we carefully educated, is not the kind of person who relies on the food of our ancestors."

Fang nodded repeatedly and said softly: "You have told me before. If you leave too much money at home, your descendants will inevitably spend too much money. Instead, it will easily lead a good child to make a fortune. In the end, you only know how to eat, drink and have fun. I listen to you about Alu, and you will do whatever you say. I also came from the girl. I know the difficulties of the girl's family. You don't have to worry about my feelings. When we marry our daughter-in-law, we will also have a complete set of furniture and a dazzling array of porcelain and tin items?"

Jiang Zhenyuan couldn't help but pinch Fang's hand gratefully and whispered: "There is no harm to your good wife. I am so glad that my father-in-law married you to me."

Fang's heart was sweet, but his face was so red that it could drip.

The couple agreed on Jiang Xian’s dowry, and Fang took the initiative to go to the palace again.

The Empress Dowager was accompanying her, and she and the Empress Dowager sat under the big tree that was falling in the sun, facing Jiang Xian's dowry.

The Empress Dowager took down the reading glasses that were sandwiched against her nose and looked at Fang carefully.

Although Fang's round face could not hide the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, he looked gentle, elegant and calm.

"Is there anything wrong with my face?" Fang, who felt the queen mother's eyes, looked up in confusion and touched his cheeks and hair.

"No, no." The Empress Dowager handed the reading glasses to Meng Fangling who was copying the dowry list beside her, and smiled, "This is half of your Duke Zhenfu's Mansion, right? This must be what Duke Zhenfu meant, but if you disagree, it would be difficult for him to make such an idea." She said, shook Fang's hand, patted Fang's back of his hand, and said, "You are very good! Very good!"

Fang lowered his head in embarrassment.

The Empress Dowager said, "You don't have to spoil her so much. Sometimes, money is the cause of trouble. After Fangling copied the order later, I just need to pick a few for Baoning as a dowry. You should leave the rest to Alu..."

Fang became anxious and wanted to say something else. The Empress Dowager waved her hand and signaled her not to say anything again, saying, "If you feel sorry for me, when my grandson is born, you will give Baoning a face."

She will definitely be gone by then, and Baoning will need to rely on the Duke Zhenguo Mansion. With such a relationship, no matter how Baoning lives in the future, no one will dare to neglect her.

Fang understood the intention of the Empress Dowager, and added and reduced Jiang Xian's dowry according to the Empress Dowager's wishes. When she left the palace the next day, her eyes were still blurred.

She couldn't help but smile at the nanny who was beside her, and said, "I think I have to learn from the Empress Dowager with a pair of glasses!"

The nanny's husband's surname was Li. He was originally a dowry maid from Fang. Later, he married the servant who was in charge of the Jiang family. Everyone changed their name. When he was young, he called Li Sister Li, and now he is called Madam Li.

She smiled and said, "Although those glasses are rare, it is the first time I have seen them. But I heard from the people in the palace that this thing was paid tribute from the West, and that was to pass through the Maritime Bureau. The Jinghai Marquis Mansion is in Fujian, and a pair of glasses is not just the only thing the prince said!"

The imperial court had three maritime departments, one of which was located in Fuzhou, the head of the Fujian Provincial Administration.

It is the jurisdiction of the Marquis of Jinghai.

If things could be so simple, that would be great.

Fang did not even tell Madam Li about Jiang Xian's disappearance.

She stammered and exposed the matter, but when she went back, she found that Jiang Zhenyuan was at home and did not go to the Governor's Office of the Five Army.

This is very rare for Jiang Zhenyuan.

Fang was shocked when he thought of Jiang Xian. Without changing clothes, he went to Jiang Zhenyuan's study in the inner courtyard.

Jiang Zhenyuan was walking around the house like a trapped beast. When he saw Fang coming, he sent everyone who served around him. He couldn't help but suppress his anxiety and said to Fang in a low voice: "The emperor has been busy discussing taxes on Jiangsu and Zhejiang with the cabinet ministers these days, and he has never sent anyone to the farm..."

Fang's face turned pale and he said in a lost voice: "Where did Baoning go?"

"I don't know." Even Jiang Zhenyuan's eyes flashed with confusion. It had been four days and four nights. The longer the time was, the more unfavorable it was for Jiang Xian. "I have asked someone to check who has left the city these days... but there are too many people involved. I wonder if there will be any fish that missed the net... I also asked Jiang Lu to ask Zhangzhu to see if he could ask something? Zhao Xiao and a few places, I also asked him to go there..."

If I could ask something, I would have asked it long ago, but I would have to wait until now?

Fang was worried.

Baoning, nothing will happen, right?
