The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!
Chapter 287 The ability to see the situation clearly
On the third day of the twelfth lunar month, Emperor Rong'an sent Duke Lu and Duke Ying as imperial envoys to the Jiangnan Road, bestowed upon them the Emperor's Sword and granted them the power of life and death.
When the imperial edict was issued, both Duke Yingguo and Duke Lu were ready to set off.
Mr. Jiang brought the younger generations of the Jiang family, and the eldest princess brought the younger generations of the Lu family to see them off at the gate of the capital.
The Duke of England was already tall and was riding a big horse, which made the Duke of Lu next to him look even more gentle and elegant.
Duke Lu smiled at the princess and said, "Your Highness, please go back early. The city gate is windy."
Since Princess Boyang married Duke Lu, the two have never been separated for long.
She looked at Duke Lu and said calmly, "Come back safely."
Duke Lu smiled and said, "Yes, I will obey your Highness' order."
Princess Boyang's eyes turned slightly red in the cold wind, and she lowered her eyes to hide her reluctance.
Mr. Jiang was muttering something to the Duke of England, who frowned as he listened.
"I know, I know. You are so nagging." The Duke of England glared at Mr. Jiang.
Master Jiang snorted and turned around, revealing Jiang Zhiyue behind him.
Jiang Zhiyue smiled sweetly at the Duke of England: "Dad, you have to listen carefully to Uncle Lu's words."
The Duke of England thought about what his precious daughter was going to say, and he nodded, feeling both amused and helpless.
Jiang Zhiyue walked away and it was Jiang Hengdan who appeared. She was always gentle and told the Duke of Ying to take good care of himself while he was away.
The Duke of England's brows and expressions relaxed a little, and he even looked at Jiang Tiyu in a more favorable light.
My daughter is so caring.
The Duke of England even looked at the Duke of Lu provocatively.
Duke Lu was calm and said to Jiang Zhiyue, "Uncle Lu will bring a gift for little Achan."
Jiang Zhiyue also showed a well-behaved smile, his eyes slightly bright: "Thank you, Uncle Lu, you must take good care of yourself in Jiangnan."
Duke Lu smiled especially kindly: "Okay, okay, Uncle Lu got it. Thank you, A-Chan, for your concern."
The Duke of England looked at Duke Lu unhappily from the side.
Princess Boyang's original sadness of parting was wiped out by these two people.
"Hurry up and leave. If you don't leave now, you will miss the first official post station."
Only the eldest princess dared to urge him, and the censors beside her did not dare to say a word.
Upon hearing this, Duke Lu said goodbye to everyone and set off with the imperial envoy team including Duke Yingguo.
As the imperial envoy's flag disappeared, the people who had seen him off left.

As the New Year was approaching, the Duke of England suddenly left Beijing on official business, and the atmosphere in the mansion seemed to have become a little gloomy.
Old Lady Yan couldn't help but smile when she saw her granddaughters all looked worried.
The little girls all looked towards their grandmother, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes.
Old Lady Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. Even in previous years, he didn't always spend the New Year at home."
Hearing this, Jiang Hengdan whispered, "Even so, being in the capital is still different from not being in the capital."
Although Jiang Hengdan was a concubine's daughter, she was never treated harshly in any place in the Duke's Mansion.
Even the Duke of England was much better than the fathers of other palaces she knew, and she was content.
Jiang Zhiyue knew that his third sister admired his father, so he did not stop her from speaking.
Old Lady Yan looked at her third granddaughter and said, "Dan'er, this is what you need to understand as a military commander's family member."
Old Madam Yan's words of advice made Jiang Hengdan slowly react.
She lowered her head in shame: "It's my granddaughter who is ignorant."
The old lady naturally would not blame her. Instead, she told her about what happened between her and her grandfather in her early years.
The little girls seldom heard the old lady talk about the past, so now they were listening attentively with their chins propped up.
When Mr. Jiang came to Chunhui Hall, he saw all the little girls in the room surrounding the old lady and smiling like flowers.
"I came at an unfortunate time. Our daughter is here."
Master Jiang has always treated his children as treasures, and he said with a smile.
Old Lady Yan was also amused by her granddaughters. She looked at her second son who suddenly appeared and asked, "What's the matter?"
Mr. Jiang smiled faintly and said, "My son has been promoted. I want to tell you."
Hearing this, the girls immediately congratulated Mr. Jiang: "Congratulations, Uncle/Dad."
Jiang Zhiyue observed that his second uncle looked calm, as if he was not surprised at all by this matter.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that her second uncle had indeed buried his talent.
Old Lady Yan calmly observed the expressions on her granddaughters' faces, finally her attention fell on Jiang Wanbai's face.
She smiled gently and asked Mr. Jiang Er, "But will you transfer to the Secretariat?"
Master Jiang nodded: "Mother is wise, that's right."
The old lady looked at her granddaughters and asked, "Tell me what you think."
Jiang Zhiyue was not surprised by his grandmother's question, but the other three were.
He also talked about state affairs in private, but never in front of his elders.
Jiang Fuyao's expression changed from confusion to excitement in the blink of an eye.
Old Lady Yan noticed the change in Jiang Fuyao's expression and pointed at her and said, "Fuyao, go ahead."
Jiang Fuyao glanced at Mr. Jiang Er, who smiled at her encouragingly.
Jiang Fuyao mustered up the courage to speak: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs is responsible for reviewing the affairs of various departments."
"Entering the Secretariat is the first step to entering the Cabinet."
Old Lady Yan looked at her granddaughter with admiration and asked, "Is Fuyao sure that your father wants to join the cabinet?"
Master Jiang also looked at Jiang Fuyao with a smile.
Jiang Fuyao nodded, "It was my fourth sister who reminded me."
"Oh?" Old Madam Yan looked at Jiang Wanbai who was silent beside her.
Jiang Wanbai said: "It's not a reminder, just sisterly gossip."
"Tell us what you think of the government today."
Mr. Jiang did not shy away from anything. He lifted his robe and sat down, as if he was going to teach a few little girls.
"After Fuyao finishes speaking, let's go to Wanbai, then Hengdan. Achan is the youngest, so let's put her last."
Jiang Wanbai was puzzled, "Achan is at the end, doesn't that mean she has nothing to say?"
Master Jiang was stunned and laughed: "Nothing to say? Then wait and see if this girl really has nothing to say."
Jiang Zhiyue lowered his head and complained in his heart, Second Uncle is good in every way except that he sometimes likes to watch shows too much.
After Jiang Fuyao took the lead, Jiang Wanbai and Jiang Hengdan also expressed their opinions.
As Mr. Jiang listened, he nodded and boasted, "As expected of a child from the Duke's Mansion."
There was also a smile in Old Lady Yan's eyes.
She always hoped that her children could be sensible and know right from wrong.
On this basis, if they can learn the ability to see the whole picture from a small part, we won’t have to worry about the future of these children.
As we can see today, the children are very smart.
Mr. Jiang kept praising the girls, which made Jiang Wanbai and others feel embarrassed.
Old Lady Yan added at this moment: "Grandmother has no other expectations for you."
"It's good to have the ability to see the bigger picture, but most importantly, Grandma wants you all to be safe."
The capital city is the place closest to the center of power.
If you are not careful, you will be caught up in some trouble. If you can't see the situation clearly, you will not be able to protect yourself.
Jiang Zhiyue and her sisters looked at each other and knelt down, "We will follow Grandmother's instructions."
