What the Empress Dowager wants is Jiang Xian and his wife, love and love, not a title and salary.

Her face sank.

The East Warehouse of Cining Palace has become quiet and solemn.

Jiang Xian had arrived in Datong at this time.

Datong once became the imperial capital. Since its founding, it has been an important town on the nine borders. The imperial court has a horse market here, and the Datong General Office is stationed here. It is no problem to have a prosperous and lively place.

Jiang Xian lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out.

In addition to the signature guise of Linli, there are many big girls and wives wearing magpies robes who linger in small stalls on the side of the road. You can tell at a glance that the folk customs are much more fierce than those in the capital.

She also saw many mutton restaurants.

Qi Dan told her: "We have a lot of Tartars here that come to buy, and mutton gradually became popular. The most famous ones are the 'first floor' of Gulou West Street and the 'Yuguangyuan' of Xiaonan Street. Then there are the 'Jinan Village' of Dabei Street and the 'Fenglin Pavilion' of Jiulou Lane. But these two are well-made in Shandong cuisine and the other is well-made in Beijing cuisine. If the princess is interested, we can order a table for dinner today."

Jiang Xian is really interested.

She wanted to eat mutton, but she was afraid that she would not be able to digest it. She hesitated for a long time and did not decide what to eat. The carriage had already been parked at the side door of the backyard of the Datong General's Mansion.

Mrs. Qi apologized: "Princess, the princess said she wanted to take a light car and just obeyed the princess."

The Datong General Office is a military fortress. Unless it is a sacred caravan, an imperial edict or a new Datong General Office, the governors of the Five Army Governors' Office will come, otherwise they will have to go to the middle gate.

Jiang Xian smiled and said, "I just came over to play with my elder brother, so naturally the lower the key, the better. Madam is too worried!"

Mrs. Qi said nothing more, and looked at her with a glance and got off the carriage first.

When she first met Jiang Xian, she saw that Jiang Xian was very deserted in dealing with people and things, and she was like a glass. Her eyes were swollen and she mobilized many people to go to Wutai Mountain to invite a medicine monk to come for consultation. She was a little worried that she would offend Jiang Xian inadvertently. But after contacting her these days, she found that Jiang Xian was just cold on the outside and hot on the inside. Jiang Xian was not only generous in dealing with people, but also very polite and polite. When the people around her did something wrong, they never shouted or punished loudly. They were all given to Liu Dongyue for careful teaching. They were better-tempered and well-educated than many ladies she had seen. They just said they liked what they like, and they said they didn't like it. They made friends with them simple but not sincerely, making people feel like spring breeze and very comfortable.

She was not polite to Jiang Xian. She took the lead if she deserved it, and stepped back if she deserved it. Everyone got along very well with each other.

Jiang Xian was helped by Liu Dongyue to get off the carriage. When he saw a vegetable garden that had just been turned over, there were a few seedlings that had sprouted.

Mrs. Qi hurriedly said, "This is what my mother-in-law grows."

Jiang Xian then remembered that Mrs. Qi followed her mother-in-law to join Qi Sheng after Qi Sheng's father passed away, and Qi Sheng's mother was just a peasant woman in the countryside.

This is the first time Jiang Xian saw a living vegetable garden.

When she was the queen mother, she also went to Ditan to farm and mulberry trees. But that was just a two-step walk with a plow and a rake, which was not as interesting as before.

"What did the old lady grow?" she asked curiously, "I heard that the vegetables grown in the vegetable garden are all fruitful in summer. So do you eat the vegetables grown in this vegetable garden in summer?"

The Qi family made a fortune after Qi Sheng saved Jiang Zhenyuan. Although the Qi family had added some industries, their living habits were there. When Mrs. Qi was in her hometown, she also had her own backyard to grow vegetables. She was very familiar with this and smiled and said, "I ordered some cucumbers, gourds, bell peppers, zucchini, etc." Then she pointed to her, showing her wherever she was.

In Jiang Xian's opinion, it was all over the country and he couldn't tell what was. He nodded randomly and proposed to go to see Mrs. Qi with Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi hurriedly said she didn't dare and said, "There is no reason to let the princess go to see Shuren."

Mrs. Qi is a third-rank lady, and Mrs. Qi is a seventh-rank lady. It is just for respect and liking, and they are called a wife.

Jiang Xian smiled and said, "If Madam treats me as a princess, then I will go back to the guest room and wait for the old lady to come to see me. If Madam treats me as a good niece of the Tong family, I will take me to ask the old lady for a good wish."

Mrs. Qi hesitated for a moment, smiled generously and said "Okay", and took Jiang Xian to the East Cross Courtyard where the old lady lived.

The old lady is fifty-four years old, but she is covered in black hair, has a strong body, and a straight smile. No matter what the princess is or is, she took Jiang Xian's hand and called "big daughter" and said, "Why did this thin and tender skin follow your brother to Datong? It's a bad thing along the way? Come into my house for a rest, and I'll have someone to drink sugar water for you."

Mrs. Qi smiled and stopped the old lady: "Mom, the princess has just arrived here. I will take her back to clean her face and change her clothes to rest for a while. When the lights are in hand, come over to have dinner with you."

When the old lady heard this, she immediately said, "Then go back to the house and rest first. When you are idle, let Da Ya and Er Ya come with you to play."

Qi Shan and Qi Shuang heard Qi Qi's face and said, "Grandma, how many times have you told you? We don't call it Da Ya and Er Ya, but A Shan and A Shuang!"

The old lady ignored the two girls and urged Jiang Xian to go and rest quickly.

The two girls pouted and accompanied Jiang Xian to the resting guest room.

The guest room was clean, with a row of black lacquered furniture hanging next to the hood of thousands of words, the parrot green curtains were brand new, and there were still traces of ironing. The two wintersweets flying out of the sweet white porcelain plum bottle on the coffee table, the faint fragrance floated, making people feel slightly moved when they saw it, secretly admiring the good intentions of the people who arranged the house.

"Thank you, madam!" Jiang Xian thanked Mrs. Qi sincerely.

Mrs. Qi was kind and called the daughter-in-law who was arranged to be in here to kowtow to Jiang Xian, and left with her two daughters.

Jiang Xian finally washed his hair happily, changed into the white silk underwear he usually wore, leaned comfortably on the chaise longue and let the little maid help him tuck his hair dry.

Liu Dongyue came in and reported, "The eldest son and Lord Li were settled in the guest room in the west by Lord Qi. In the evening, Lord Qi called the generals of the General's Office, the guerrilla general, the garrison, and the garrison, and the general and others to the eldest son and Lord Li. Tomorrow, Lord Li will be invited to see the training of the General's Office of Datong."

It would be better to let Li Qian slowly integrate into the Datong General Mansion like this.

Although there is a horse market in Yulin, it is a black market. Unlike the horse market in Datong and Xuanfu, which was opened by the imperial court. Li Qian wanted to be strong in his troops, and in addition to the horse market in Yulin, he should also have more contact with the horse market in Datong and Xuanfu.

After dinner with the Qi family's family's family, Jiang Xian went back to the house to rest.

When they got up the next day, Li Qian and Jiang Lu had already gone to the school with Qi Sheng.

Li Qian's servant Binghe came in to pay his respects to Jiang Xian, saying that the banquet last night was only 30 minutes before the drums were dispersed. The inner courtyard was locked and was called away by Qi Sheng early this morning: "... The old man asked the little one to come and ask the princess how she slept well last night? Is there any unaccustomed thing? Is there anything that needs to be purchased? Lord Qi said that he would take the old one to see at Mashi today, and I guess he would not have any spare time these days. If the princess had something to do, let Brother Dongyue tell the little one to tell her."
