[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

Princess Anyang then mentioned another matter, "Oh, by the way, Madam, my stepmother said that in a few days, when you are free, she wants to invite you to go to the temple outside the city to burn incense and go for an outing."

Rong Enqing was surprised, "Is the general's wife not back yet?"

Yuan came to Beijing a few years ago. It has been more than three months now. Logically, it is time for her to go back.

"Not yet." Princess Anyang sighed, "My stepmother said that if she can't marry me off, she won't go back."

Hearing this, Rong Enqing couldn't help but smile, "It's rare that the general's wife really treats the county lady as her own daughter. The county lady should cherish her happiness."

"Who said it wasn't?" Princess Anyang was also helpless.

The Princess of Anyang County changed her tone and said depressedly, "But Madam, you don't know, I originally wanted to follow my stepmother back to Datong. But my stepmother insisted that the border was cold and bitter, and there was no good family of equal status to marry me, and she insisted on marrying me to the capital. What do you think of this?"

It was the first time that Rong Enqing heard Anyang County Lady say that she wanted to go back, so he immediately asked, "Does the County Lady want to go back to Datong?"

Princess Anyang nodded, "Yes. I was rejected in the beginning, and I was unwilling to accept it, so I came to the capital to find Wu Mingyu to ask for clarification.

“But when I arrived in Beijing, before I even met Wu Mingyu, I was harassed and targeted by Liang Yulan.

“I suddenly felt like there was nothing left to ask.

"To fall for a hypocritical, duplicitous woman like Liang Yulan, Wu Mingyu is either a blind man or a utilitarian who only wants to climb the social ladder.

"What should I worry about with such a person?"

Rong Enqing nodded in agreement, "The county lady is open-minded. Such a person is indeed not worthy of the county lady's concern."

Princess Anyang continued, "That's right. Wu Mingyu's affairs don't matter to me. I've seen the prosperity of the capital. Now, it seems that I have no reason to stay in the capital. So I want to go back to Datong Prefecture with my stepmother. But my stepmother insisted on marrying me to the capital."

Rong Enqing felt a little heavy-hearted. To be honest, she was reluctant to see the county lady leave, and even more reluctant to see Madam Zhou leave.

However, she always had a hidden worry in her heart.

Is the county lord involved with the Shun'an Marquis' Mansion, or should I say, are the county lord involved with Yun Yi and his gang?

What is the connection between the county lord and Yunluo?

Rong Enqing has not forgotten that Hu Shan's daughter was taken away by the housekeeper Old Li when she was just born, and appeared beside the county lord eighteen years later.

There is no doubt that Butler Li is Yun Yi's man.

There is no doubt that Hu Shan was the person left in the Marquis' Mansion by Butler Li.

Then, the fact that Hu Shan’s daughter appeared next to the county lord is very questionable!

Seeing Rong Enqing didn't speak for a long time, Anyang County Lady quickly took Rong Enqing's arm and said with a smile: "Madam, are you reluctant to let me go? Hahaha, don't worry, based on my understanding of my stepmother, she must marry me to the capital. So, I probably can't go back to Datong Prefecture. There will be plenty of time to meet you in the future."

Rong Enqing collected his thoughts and asked an irrelevant question: "How did Tingqin come to serve the county lady?"

Princess Anyang was stunned for a moment, confused, but still said truthfully: "My adoptive father gave them to me. Not only Tingqin, but also the four girls Qinqishuhua, were all sent to me by my adoptive father the year after my parents passed away. It has been ten years now."

"When the four of them came to the county lady's side, were they already proficient in both literature and martial arts?" Rong Enqing continued to ask.

"Yes." Princess Anyang nodded. "They were all trained by my adoptive father before being given to me. Not only are they good at literature and martial arts, they are also very good at etiquette. However, after being with me for so many years, they have become lax about the rules. Haha, this is my fault, don't blame them."

At this point, the Princess of Anyang County seemed to have thought of something funny and suddenly said, "Madam, you don't know that when the four of them were sent to me, they said nothing but 'yes' and 'obey your command', let alone smile. Their words and actions were just like they were cast in the same mold.

"It's my ten years of persistent training that has turned the four of them into different people now. No, Moqi and Huishu are still the same as before, rarely talking and rarely smiling. But Tingqin and Ruhua have developed their own personalities."

At the end, Princess Anyang's tone was obviously full of pride.

However, Rong Enqing no longer had the heart to listen to what the county lord said next.

Ten years ago, the county lady was six years old, Tingqin was eight years old, and Ruhua and the other two were probably about the same age.

For an eight-year-old child to be able to learn both literature and martial arts and to have all the rules and regulations, it is not something that can be done overnight! It is not something that can be done in one or two years!

This means that the training of the four people in music, chess, calligraphy and painting did not start after the death of Anyang County Lord's parents. Instead, it started long ago!

Why did General Yang want to train these people? And when did he start training them?

Does he have the ability to foresee the future? He prepared four maids like this for the county lady in advance!

Or did he train these people in the first place for another purpose? What was that purpose?

Also, why was Hu Shan's daughter sent to General Yang through the hands of Butler Lao Li?

What is the relationship between General Yang and Butler Li, or in other words, what is the relationship between General Yang and Yun Yi?

Could the death of the county princess’ parents be related to General Yang?

Rong Enqing was in a state of confusion and felt dazed.

It was not until Princess Anyang shook her several times that she woke up.

"What's the matter?" She looked at Princess Anyang in a daze.

Princess Anyang reached out and touched her forehead, and said worriedly, "Madam, are you okay? Why are you so distracted today? Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look?"

"Haha, I'm fine. I guess I didn't sleep well because I was busy with Yun Shu's marriage these days."

Rong Enqing made a lame excuse.

Hearing this, Princess Anyang said goodbye, "It's time for me to go back. Madam, go and have a rest. Please take care of yourself. I'll come back to see you later."

Rong Enqing did not try to keep her and personally escorted her to the gate of the courtyard.

Princess Anyang turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly turned back and smiled and reminded, "Madam, remember to have a good rest. If you have enough rest, you will have the energy to go to the temple with my stepmother to burn incense in a few days."

After saying this, Princess Anyang left without looking back.

But Rong Enqing suddenly had an idea. She couldn't see General Yang for a while, but if she met Yuan, she might be able to get something out of her.

It is said that husband and wife are one body. General Yang would not hide everything from Yuan, right?
