The Cloud Feather of the Red Chamber: A Marriage Arranged with Gong Yuanzheng at the Start

The palace gates have been unusually busy these past few days, as all the items from the three palaces in the back mountain have been gradually moved to the front mountain.

A large number of servants were also released, although the people of Old Dust Valley were puzzled by the palace gates' decision to relocate them.

But seeing the commotion at the palace gates, they knew the relocation was inevitable.

Some people chose to move along with the palace gates, while others chose to move on their own.

Moving along with the palace gates, they will naturally receive the same protection as they did in the Old Dust Valley.

The day after the strange man was dealt with, Gong Shangjiao set off directly for Yangzhou.

Everyone knows how heavy the burden on his shoulders is now. Establishing an unprecedented government office presents even more challenges for Gong Shangjiao.

The relocation of the Horn Palace naturally fell to Gong Yuanzheng.

Before leaving, everyone discussed and made a unanimous decision.

First, purchase a large estate outside as a temporary residence, and the core disciples of the palace will move there first.

Once we find a suitable place outside, preferably one similar to our current living environment, we will move there entirely.

Having made their decision, each palace stored their supplies and, carrying only the necessary luggage, set off together to go outside.

Ten days have passed since I finished all these tasks.

Gong Shangjiao also sent a message by carrier pigeon to the palace gate, informing him that he had already arranged for someone to purchase an estate in the suburbs of Yangzhou.

At the same time, he also conveyed the new emperor's decree, requesting that Young Master Hua and Elder Hua go to the capital as soon as possible.

Young Master Hua and Elder Hua have received appointments from the imperial court and will be stationed in the firearms battalion for a long time to come, manufacturing new types of firearms.

More than thirty years have passed, and the foreign enemies surrounding Daqing are already stirring.

The new emperor would certainly not let go of talents like Young Master Hua and Elder Hua.

The new emperor originally wanted to have Young Master Yue register at the Imperial Hospital, but upon seeing his half-dead state, he immediately changed his mind.

Recruiting talent requires their willingness, especially for those studying medicine. If they are unwilling, you might not even know how you died someday.

He had also witnessed the medical skills of Young Master Yue.

Gong Zishang was so excited upon receiving the letter that he couldn't sleep all night.

The next day, at the crack of dawn, she ran straight to the Shang Palace and told her father the good news.

She earnestly instructed Gong Liushang to wait patiently at the palace gate, and that she would come to pick up the three of them as soon as she found a suitable place.

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out of the Shang Palace.

By the time Gong Liushang realized what was happening, Gong Zishang had already disappeared from the Shang Palace.

On the day of departure, there was a long queue at the palace gate.

Apart from the necessary guards and servants who stayed behind, everyone else went to Yangzhou with them.

Young Master Yue and Elder Xue also chose to stay at the palace gate this time.

Gong Zishang didn't bother to ask any more questions. Originally, she was still worried because only Gong Liushang's family of three remained in the Gong family. Now that there were two more people with them, she felt more at ease and set off.

Xue Gongzi's excitement was no less than Gong Zishang's.

Of all the people in the palace, only he and Gong Zishang have not yet left the gate.

His understanding of the outside world basically came from storybooks.

Now that he can finally go out, he can't wait to use his light-footed skills to run around outside.

Seeing the child who couldn't sit still on the horse, Yukishigeko couldn't help but smile.

"Take it easy, don't let Qingyu fall off the horse."

Yes, Qingyu and Xue Gongzi rode on the same horse.

Why didn't she ride the same horse as Gong Yuanzheng? Because Gong Yuanzheng doesn't ride horses; he and Lin Qingyue rode in a carriage together.

Even Gong Zishang, who hadn't slept all night, chose to ride a horse, but he refused.

"Don't worry, Daxue, I'm holding you very securely!"

Qingyu was also full of excitement, "Brother Xiaoxue, let's ride faster!"

This time, Young Master Xue refused Qingyu's request not because he was afraid Qingyu would fall, but because he was afraid the wind would be too strong and blow Qingyu away.

Although they were walking slowly through the mountains, it was enough to make the two of them, one big and one small, very happy.

Even though they were both in the mountains and forests, Young Master Xue managed to tell the difference between the trees outside and those at the palace gate.

When the two encountered something they didn't understand, they would ask Yukishigeko.

Yukishige had only been out once, and she was on the road the whole time, so she didn't know much about the outside world.

In the end, the questioning turned to Jia Min, who was also unsure about some things, so she called over a guard from the Lin family.

He was instructed to stay by Xue Gongzi's side the whole way, answering their questions whenever they came.

Daiyu looked at Qingyu riding a horse outside, her face full of envy.

She also wanted to ride horses freely outside like Qingyu, instead of looking at the scenery through the carriage window, but she knew that her mother would never allow it.

Seemingly sensing Daiyu's disappointment, Xue Gongzi, along with Qingyu, dug up a large bunch of fresh flowers and green plants and delivered them to Daiyu's carriage.

"Yu'er, here you go!"

He added, "Don't worry, Yu'er, Qingyu and I dug these up with the soil still attached. Once you've had your fill of admiring them, we can replant them back in the soil."

When he was at the palace gate, he accompanied Daiyu to bury flowers more than once.

Although he didn't understand why Daiyu was so fond of burying flowers, he knew that his sister Yu'er cherished every flower and couldn't bear to see them wither.

Daiyu also noticed that the roots of these green plants were wrapped in a cloth.

She was overjoyed and wanted to accept it, but remembering that Jia Min was right beside her, she looked at her with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

Jia Min naturally wouldn't miss anything that Daiyu noticed.

Seeing the longing in Daiyu's eyes, Jia Min smiled and gestured for her to accept it.

Xue Gongzi was one of the people she had the most contact with in the palace.

Although he is tall and strong, he is still somewhat childlike, pure-hearted, and easy to read.

In all her years of life, this was the first time Jia Min had ever met someone with such a pure heart.

She could tell at a glance that Xue Gongzi's gift of the flower plant to Daiyu was merely out of brotherly concern for his sister, so Jia Min naturally wouldn't stop him.

But by next year, when Daiyu will be seven years old, she probably won't be able to accept these gifts anymore.

After all, Young Master Xue is also an outsider.

Seeing that Daiyu had accepted the gift, Young Master Xue happily rode his horse with Qingyu and continued to stroll outside.

As they passed Lin Qingyue's carriage, Qingyu looked up at Young Master Xue.

"Brother Xiaoxue, let's pick some flowers for Big Sister too."

Young Master Xue flatly rejected the suggestion, "Brother Qingyu, your eldest sister's flowers don't need us to pick them; someone will pick them for her!"

Qingyu naturally knew that her brother Yuanzheng would pick the fruit for her older sister, but the fact that Yuanzheng picked the fruit didn't stop him from giving it to her.

Young Master Xue had an inscrutable expression, based on his experience from reading so many storybooks.

Given Zheng Gongzi's personality, he would definitely secretly throw away the flowers Qingyu gave him in the middle of the night!

Their conversation naturally reached Lin Qingyue's ears.

She smiled and looked at Gong Yuanzheng, who was engrossed in weaving a flower wreath for her.

Long before Xue Gongzi took Qingyu to dig for flowers, Gong Yuanzheng had already picked many fresh flowers for her.

Now, her carriage is never short of flowers.

Gong Yuanzheng was too lazy to pay attention to the two people; his mind was mostly on the flower wreath in his hand.

The wreath in his hand quickly took shape, and Gong Yuanzheng carefully placed it on Lin Qingyue's head.

Lin Qingyue rested her chin on her hand, letting Gong Yuanzheng play with her hair.

Because she stayed in the carriage the whole time, Lin Qingyue didn't let Gong Yuanzheng style her hair in a complicated way.

It's just a few small braids; as long as the hairstyle doesn't get messed up, it's fine.

After several months of treatment, Lin Qingyue's hair is now even blacker and smoother than before, and the fragrance of epiphyllum wafts through her hair.

Before setting off, Gong Yuanzheng turned all the epiphyllum flowers in Zheng Palace into hair oil and perfume.

The quantity was so large that it would last Lin Qingyue for a year and a half.

After adjusting for a while, Gong Yuanzheng was finally satisfied.

Looking at the smiling young girl in front of him, Gong Yuanzheng felt extremely satisfied.

That's wonderful. From now on, he'll have Yue'er and his brother; they'll always be there for him.

very nice.
