The civil war broke out, but the prosperity that the capital should have was still not lost at all. It was just that the ladies and ladies of aristocratic families no longer held any poetry banquets. After all, it was a sensitive period, and it was always inappropriate to be too luxurious.

There were 100,000 troops stationed at the border, and they were guarding against the invasion of the Northern Di early in the morning, so the Northern Di did not seek any advantage when the war started.

The three imperial guards sent by the imperial court to suppress the rebels, after the Eastern Army failed to fight, the Western Army captured Pingcheng and their morale rose sharply.

At this time, Ji Wan had left the capital with Lu Fei and heard the news halfway.

Lu Dalang and his wife were both in the Western Army. This time they made contributions and would be rewarded after they came back.

The war in the middle is going on, and Duke An Guo and his son have to rush to the north as soon as possible, which will cause trouble, so they take a detour.

Also accompanying Mr. Lu Si was also here.

The fourth wife's tears failed to stop Mr. Lu's ambitions. Mr. Lu volunteered to go to the border with his brother.

When she left, the fourth wife was crying like a little girl. Aunt Mei, who was about to go to the battlefield, was much more stable than her. Although she was reluctant and worried, she did not stop her, but she just repeated a few words. Seeing that Lu Wulang and Lu Liulang, who also wanted to go to the battle but were stopped by their mother, were envious.

Xiao Rui joined the army at the age of fourteen. They were also the sons of a family of military generals, two or three years older than them. After learning martial arts for so many years, they read so many military books, but they could only stay in the capital to enjoy a happy life.

I am really sorry to my ancestors.

...

The group of people walked along the waterway. After crossing the Xiangjiang River, they accelerated their journey and finally arrived in Yancheng on June 20th.

Men are about to go to the front line and cannot stay here.

Ji Wan directed the butler who had received the news and brought his servants to greet him to unload things from the carriage.

"These gifts are to be given to people, be careful and don't bump them."

Zeng Ting and Xiang Fan were helping each other and did not forget to give advice.

The housekeeper came over and said respectfully: "Mrs. I have been rushing for nearly a month. I guess I'd be tired from the journey. It's better to go in and rest first. The old slave in the room has already asked them to clean it up. Just leave these things to them."

Ji Wan nodded.

"I'm sorry for you."

"The young lady is so serious, this is the duty of the old slave." The housekeeper bent over and turned sideways, "Please please."

In the early years, the Lu brothers were stationed in the north for many years and lived in the mansion here. Therefore, although the Duke's Mansion in Yancheng was not as large as the capital, it was not small in scale. The three-entry courtyard was more spacious.

The place where men live is not very particular. The scenery in the mansion is far inferior to the Duke's Mansion in the capital.

Considering that he would have to live here for a while, Ji Wan decided to redecorate the courtyard view after a few days. At least there would be more flowers and plants in the yard and the air would be better.

In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient, so it took ten days and half a month to go out for a long distance. Although there was a stop in the middle, it was enough to sway the carriage along the way.

Ji Wan hasn't been on the carriage for so long in a long time, and she feels sore and tired all over.

After taking a shower, I changed into clean clothes and felt refreshed all over.

Xiang Fan walked in, "Mrs. Young lady, lunch is ready."

"Um."

When she was in the Duke of Beijing, she would occasionally have dinner with her mother-in-law. Most of the time, Lu Feiyan would lead Lu Feichi to eat with her. She rarely had her own meals. Now that she had changed places, the servants in the mansion were all strangers, so Ji Wan couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

The rules of the Duke's Mansion are not allowed to be together with the master and servant.

Eating a large table of dishes by one person is not an ordinary waste.

"Xiangfan, please continue to let me reduce my diet alone in the future, just one meat, one vegetable and one soup."

"Mrs., isn't this... too little?"

Xiang Fan has followed her to see the wealth of aristocratic families in the capital in the past two years, and his horizons have a wider range of horizons. In terms of the Duke's Mansion, the ladies and girls have fixed rules for each meal. The dietary rules for the ladies and young ladies are the same, two meat dishes, four vegetarian dishes, one soup and two plates of snacks. If they feel that it is not enough, they will pay for money to add.

The master rarely eats alone, so there is no reduction in the amount. This sharp reduction is more than half.

"Now that the border is war, even though Yancheng is not a battlefield, the people will inevitably panic. Not to mention the rebels in the central Taining area are rampant. The people in that area are displaced and unable to eat, and those who flee may encounter bandits. I used to be a civilian, and I knew that I had no food to eat hungry. Now I am rich and I cannot forget my roots. I am alone, with six dishes and one soup, and most of the remaining half are thrown away. Think about those people who cannot eat, not just waste. Your Majesty advocates frugality, and all the subjects should follow."

Xiang Fan was convinced and said respectfully: "Yes."

"You pack your bags and follow me to Zhu's Mansion tomorrow."

When she left, Qi Min had just given birth, and now the child is over two years old.

"yes."

There are not many slaves in the Duke's Mansion, most of them do rough work, and Ji Wan doesn't need to see them at all, and the industries here are also managed by the housekeeper. In other words, there are almost no internal affairs that Ji Wan needs to worry about.

Early the next morning, she prepared the gift and went to Zhu's mansion.

When the border war began, General Zhu naturally went to the front line. When Qi Min learned that Ji Wan was visiting, he personally brought people to greet him.

As soon as Ji Wan got off the carriage, she stepped forward to greet her. When the sisters who had been away for two years were met, they were a little surprised.

Qi Min was shocked that Ji Wan was even more beautiful than before, and Ji Wan was shocked that Qi Min's slightly raised abdomen.

"Sister Qi, are you... happy again?"

Qi Min pursed her lips and smiled, "Well, it's been five months."

Ji Wan hurriedly helped her walk in, "Look at you, you are still going out with a big belly. How can I afford it? By the way, where is my godnefactor Keer?"

"In his grandmother."

When Qi Min mentioned her son, her face was filled with unstoppable tenderness and kindness.

The two of them left and said.

"Two years ago, I saw that Lu Sanlang treats you very well, and he was really engaged after returning to Beijing. Seeing that you are full of spring breeze, I think Sanlang treats you well."

"We sisters have been separated for two years, but I didn't expect that my sister would tease me like this as soon as we met." Ji Wan looked at her with anger, "My sister has a second child so soon. I think she has a close relationship with General Zhu, and she is as close as she can."

“Where can learn so naive?”

Qi Min glared at her, "But don't talk about me, you are a wife now, and sooner or later there will be such a day."

Ji Wan blushed rarely, "I'm still young, I'll talk about it later."

She was thin-skinned and Qi Min no longer teased her.

"You have a rare trip back to the north. I'm afraid you have to visit relatives and friends in the past few days, right?"

"Um."
