The general kneels on the washboard again

After Jiang Yunxiao left, Erya looked at Yue Niang, whose eyes were strained, and asked, "Yue Niang, do you like Young Master Jiang?"

Yue Niang did not deny it, but asked Erya: "Sister Erya, I am not sure either."

Erya covered her mouth and laughed: "If you can't see him, will you miss him?"

Yue Niang shook her head: "No."

Arya asked again: "Would it be uncomfortable for you to see him getting close to other girls?"

Yue Niang shook her head again, but continued, "I haven't experienced it, but when I heard about some of the absurd things he did with the brothel girl, and when I heard my aunt say she was going to arrange a marriage for him, I felt a little uncomfortable."

Erya smiled brightly: "I think you really like the young master."

Yue Niang wanted to shake out these worries: "No, no, I'm still young."

"You have already reached the age of marriage, and it is also the age for marriage."

In fact, Yue Niang's worries were not about this. She looked at Er Ya with a sincere face and said, "Sister Er Ya, I can't accept his personality. Even though I know he likes me, I still can't accept it."

Erya didn't know Jiang Yunxiao's face, she only knew him as a rebellious, wealthy young man. "Why? That's Duke Jiang's mansion, and you've known the young master for so long, you know him inside and out."

Yue Niang shook her head and walked to the window. Looking at the people coming and going on the street, she felt even more confused. "Sister Erya, I always thought I knew him very well, but after returning to Kyoto this time, I feel like I don't know him at all.

What if he is not what we see? What if he is actually a dandy, a scoundrel who commits crimes?

Erya didn't know what was wrong with Yue Niang: "It's not that serious, the young master has helped us a lot."

Yue Niang took a deep breath and ended the topic: "Okay, Sister Erya, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Let's get ready and go to Qiefeng tomorrow."

Yue Niang could only choose to avoid this topic.

The people of Qiefeng are open-minded. At the Queguan trade fair, Jiang Yunxiao took over the business with the leader.

The leader took the three people's documents and looked at them again and again: "Young Master, is this really issued to you by the Duke? Please don't embarrass me."

Jiang Yunxiao was somewhat helpless: "Of course it's true. Do you want me to drag my father over to testify?"

The commotion here also attracted Deputy General Zhong Hongyuan: "What's wrong, Xiao Qi?"

The soldier here was as if he had been pardoned: "General, please come and take a look at this document. I really don't know whether it is true or not."

After all, Jiang Yunxiao's character is questionable.

Zhong Hongyuan took a look and said, "It's true, Xiao Qi, let him go."

The soldier obediently let them go. After the three of them left, Zhong Hongyuan stared at Qie Feng on the other side in a daze. That was a place he would never be able to set foot in his entire life.

Riding on a camel, the sky was filled with eagles of all sizes circling. The eagles were so large that Yue Niang was a little scared: "Why are there so many eagles?"

Jiang Yunxiao looked at the sky, his emotions slightly fluctuating. "Also, the Wind King Clan is very fond of raising eagles. The bigger and more ferocious the eagle, the more respected its status."

Yue Niang lowered her head unconsciously.

Moreover, the area is located in a desert, and when the wind blows, yellow sand fills the sky, and you can't see anything clearly.

When the wind and sand dissipated, the eagle in the sky disappeared in an instant. Several people had already entered Qiefeng City. Only then did Yue Niang calm down and look at the surrounding environment.

Their clothes were colorful, many of which Yue Niang had never even seen before.

Yue Niang whispered to Erya, "Sister Erya, can you dye these colors?"

Erya was a little embarrassed: "I have never seen it before."

Jiang Yunxiao looked at the confused Yue Niang, who was very cute. He took the two of them and turned around and around until they arrived at a relatively grand courtyard made of sand, earth and wood.

Jiang Yunxiao knocked on the door, and several maids came to greet him: "Master Jiang, my wife has been waiting for a long time."

This is Princess Minjia's courtyard.

The skinny Princess Mingjia was lying inside coughing: "Cough cough cough."

The maid inside was from Dacheng, and she was diligently feeding Princess Minjia the medicine soup: "Princess, please at least have one more sip."

The door opened and light shone on Minjia's face.

Minjia looked at the person who came: "Yun Xiao."

"Sister Minjia, why are you so sick?"

At this time, the head maidservant beside her spoke up: "The princess is worried sick and refuses to take medicine. I have been to the palace several times, but they have not sent anyone to treat her."

Yue Niang hurried forward and took Minjia's pulse, and found that she was indeed worried.

Mingjia also recognized Yueniang: "It's you, little girl?"

Yue Niang nodded and said, "I have met the princess."

Minjia's face was calm, but to Yueniang, this calmness meant she had no desire to live. Princess Minjia said weakly: "What princess? She's just a shell now."

Seeing her business go to waste, Yue Niang became anxious: "Princess, as long as you're alive, there's hope. Why are you being so hard on yourself?"

"Hope? What hope is there? I'm going to spend the rest of my life in this yard."

Yue Niang had no choice but to work with the maids to force some medicine into his mouth.

Then he pulled Jiang Yunxiao out of the room.

"Brother Yunxiao, we have to find a way to help the princess."

Jiang Yunxiao said, "It's useless. Her condition is getting worse day by day. Now she doesn't even want to take medicine."

Yue Niang said, "The princess's worry is nothing but General Zhong. You can just say that it was General Zhong who asked you to come this time. General Zhong is also now sick with worry."

Jiang Yunxiao finally understood: "I understand. I'll go right away."

Yue Niang stayed in the yard, staring at the row of pink cactus flowers in a daze. Isn't this the raw material for dye?

Erya also came up to her and said, "Yueniang, this trip to Qiefeng has broadened my horizons. No wonder Qiefeng's fabrics are always the most expensive."

Yue Niang smiled and said, "Yes, Sister Erya, do you want to make the business a success?"

Erya looked at Yue Niang in confusion: "But how do we do it?"

Yue Niang said, "Dyeing workshops are rare along the way."

After thinking it over carefully, Yue Niang didn't continue: "Forget it, let's leave it like this for now."

At this time, the maidservant came out with Princess Minjia, and Yue Niang pulled Erya to kneel down: "Greetings, Princess."

Princess Mingjia waved her hand and said, "Don't call me princess anymore. I'm just the wife of King Qiefeng."

Minjia's face was as calm as water. Supported by her maid, she led a group of people to the front hall, where some delicious food was prepared.

Princess Minjia sat down with the help of her maid, looked at the others and said, "Don't be so restrained."

He watched as they started eating, then said, "I am but one of the king's concubines. Only a month after my wedding, the queen arranged for me to stay here. Fortunately, my father gave me some dowry, so I am still alive. But I don't know when I will be unable to live like this."

Seeing Princess Mingjia like this, Yue Niang was increasingly at a loss as to how to comfort her. "Princess, you don't have to be so pessimistic. My family abandoned me to Nanshan Village when I was nine years old. You knew my family's situation when you first met me, but I've survived to this day and am even living a better life than before."

Yue Niang poured a cup of tea for Princess Mingjia and said, "Princess, since we live in a desert, you can cover your mouth with a piece of gauze to prevent the wind and sand from blowing. It may help.

Your princess of Dacheng, they only dare to neglect you like this, they will definitely not do anything more extreme. Besides, the dye business is booming, if the princess is willing, the dye business can also make a lot of money."

Then he glanced at Jiang Yunxiao and continued, "Your Highness is so noble. Now that you have a house and money, you don't want to be favored by King Feng. You can be free and unrestrained, pouring tea and admiring flowers.

Isn't it better to do something you enjoy? Why lock yourself in a cage of sadness and be unable to extricate yourself? "

Princess Mingjia stared at Yue Niang and said, "Yes, there is such a way of life. Why should I stay in this courtyard and spend the rest of my life chatting?"

Seeing Princess Minjia cheer up, Jiang Yunxiao was happier than anyone else.

Princess Minjia originally wanted to keep a few people for a few more days, but Yue Niang still wanted to go back to Qingshi Town first, as there were still many business matters that needed to be sorted out.
