The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Chapter 461 The Fang Family Returns to Beijing

"Princess, what's wrong with you? Are you going to see the old princess?"

Although Prince Cheng is dead, his princess is still alive.

For so many years, I have been trapped in the Buddhist temple and have not been involved in the outside world.

It is estimated that Tai Shuhuang was afraid that his identity would be exposed, so he locked up the person who was most familiar with Prince Cheng.

The Emperor of Chu showed mercy and did not take away the title of this poor woman.

When Princess Anru heard the words "old princess", her pupils shrank and she turned her head back sharply.

"shut up."

Realizing that her tone was a little bad, the Princess of Anjou forced a smile and pretended nothing had happened.

"With such a big thing happening at home, my mother must be upset. I'd better not make her sad."

Princess Anru felt extremely cold all over and began to doubt everyone around her.

She didn't say anything else, she just wanted to go back and be quiet.

After sending everyone away, she lay on the bed with her eyes wide open.

Not long after she rested, a maid quietly left the main courtyard through a small corner door and headed west.

The capital seemed to have returned to its former peace, and there was a young man in fine clothes riding a horse on the street.

No, Kang Ge'er can no longer be called a young man.

Other people’s children are already able to help with the housework, but Kang Ge’er is still unmarried and doesn’t even have a future wife.

But he was not in a hurry. He wandered around the capital like a street urchin every day.

This made many people very anxious.

Mrs. Lu looked at many noble ladies in the capital and was satisfied with all of them, but when she saw her son's age, she was afraid that he would not be worthy of other girls.

Song Shengfu only took a look when Lu was busy and sweating.

It was useless for Mrs. Lu to be anxious, because Kang Ge'er's good marriage had already been known to the Emperor of Chu.

"The Fang family will arrive in the capital tomorrow. They have done a lot for me at the border over the years. Aunt Yu, how should I reward them?"

The King of Chu had just finished reviewing the memorials and had some free time when he saw Yu Gu sitting beside him practicing calligraphy, and the words she was practicing happened to be the two characters for loyalty and righteousness.

Hearing the emperor's grandfather's question, Yu Gu stopped practicing after the last stroke and put the pen aside.

"The Fang family? Is that the Fang family of my future aunt?"

Emperor Chu smiled heartily, "Yes, it's the Fang family."

After laughing, he seemed to think of something and frowned again.

The exile of the Fang family was also part of his plan.

However, it is difficult to place the eldest daughter of the Fang family.

When they were exiled, both daughters of the Fang family had died.

Now that the eldest daughter of the Fang family has returned, people outside will inevitably accuse the Fang family of deceiving the emperor.

At that time, the Fang family sent their two daughters away with his consent.

The Fang family did do something wrong, but he showed mercy and gave Old Man Fang a way out, which became a hidden move for him.

Originally, after the incident was accomplished, the Fang family also wanted to "clear the name on the charges" and return to officialdom.

Who would have thought that the boy from the Duan family would fall in love with the eldest daughter of the Fang family who was living away from home.

Looking at Yu Gu, the Emperor of Chu thought of the time when Prince Chun came to the palace to dine with him yesterday and mentioned the boy's marriage.

How come this guy has become so popular?

One by one, two by two, were asking.

But over the years, Duan Chengkang did do a lot of things for him, so much so that he delayed his own life event.

It was reasonable for the King of Chu to fulfill his wish.

Thinking that he had not yet told that kid Duan that his future wife was the daughter of the Fang family, the Emperor of Chu was ready to do something big for him.

Kang Ge'er, who was unaware of the situation, was happily eating and drinking with Shao Wanqi.

"Are you really going to marry a female doctor?"

Shao Wanqi was a little bit unbelievable. As the next head of the family, Kang Ge'er should marry a lady from a noble family who has been trained since childhood and can support the entire family.

"You don't understand what love at first sight is."

"Come on, will your family agree?"

This hit the nail on the head, and Kang Ge was silent for a while.

His mother didn't think she would agree, and she was already introducing him to some noble ladies in the capital.

"So, I asked His Majesty to arrange a marriage for me."

Kang Ge'er poured himself a glass of wine.

Looking at Shao Wanqi's hesitant expression, Kang Ge'er curled the corners of his mouth.

"Grandma said that life is short. You can live for your clan, for your family, and most importantly, for yourself. Instead of finding a noble lady and living a life of respect and affection with her, it's better to find someone who suits your heart. Life is short, but also long."

"Besides..."

Kang Ge'er's eyes became clearer. "Nowadays, our family is no longer suitable for attracting attention. It would be better to find a mistress from an ordinary family who is sensible and reasonable."

After saying that, he drank another glass of wine and his eyes became blurred again.

Perhaps it was destined that the path he took was the one he wanted and the one that suited him best.

Shao Wanqi understood immediately and said no more.

"It doesn't matter if my family background is lower, I will marry into your family anyway. No matter who she was before, you have to call her Madam Hou when you see her in the future."

Shao Wanqi patted his shoulder comfortingly.

"Oh, by the way, you said this female doctor learned it from Xunlu girl?"

Kang Ge'er nodded with some pride. How could he not be considered to have been educated by his grandmother since he was brought up in a girls' school?

This is really awesome, right?

"This is called fate."

Some people are born to be family.

The Fang family's carriage was about to arrive outside the capital, and Fang Youming was riding on a horse, looking ahead.

Fang Youhuai rode his horse beside him.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Fang Youming came back to his senses, his tone filled with disappointment.

"I think if my grandfather could have survived until today, he would be very happy."

It was not until Mr. Fang passed away that Fang Youming heard from him all the things that had been concealed.

Their Fang family was attacked in the past. Their father made a big mistake in a moment of thought, which caused the disaster relief money to disappear.

The Fang family was thrown into prison and was originally scheduled to be beheaded along with the rest of the people.

His Majesty showed mercy and made a deal with Mr. Fang.

He took the Fang family to exile in Xiyang, where there had been constant disturbances, to serve as an eye for him.

Of course, the Fang family is just an insignificant chess piece among thousands of chess pieces.

But by chance, I did discover a lot of things.

Fang Youming didn't know that his grandfather had done a lot of things without their knowledge.

No wonder...

No wonder when they were in Yumen, someone would knock on the door every now and then, and my grandfather would come forward and hand over a lot of things.

At first, he thought that the greedy yamen runners came to collect benefits, and his grandfather did this in order to get them to take better care of their family.

Their family lives in Yumen and they live a good life.

At least, no children starved to death and they all lived well.
