Chapter 139 Jiang Qi Arrives in Beijing, the Duke Enters the Palace

A few days later, Jiang Qi finally arrived in the capital with the things and the letter.

Looking at the tall city wall, Jiang Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief. After a few days of hardship, she just wanted to reach the capital as soon as possible and complete the tasks assigned by the young master. On the road, she dared not delay even a little.

The carriages followed the crowd and slowly entered the city in a line.

Jiangchuan's grandfather was the Duke of Wen of the current dynasty, and he lived quite a distance from the city gate.

There were many people in the city, so Jiang Chuan didn't dare to drive the carriage fast. It was half an hour later when he arrived at Duke Fu's Mansion.

Looking at the big stone lion at the gate, Jiang Chuan stopped the carriage and handed the letter in his arms to the doorman; "The letter from Mr. Jiang in the prefecture city has an urgent matter, and he wants to see the master."

The doorman did not dare to delay and hurried to the study with the letter.

There were few people in the Fu Mansion. Duke Fu's wife died early, and his daughter married General Jiang, leaving Jiang Chuan to follow. The old man sent the young man away, so Minister Fu rarely got involved in the affairs of the court.

He was very affectionate with his wife, and he has been single since she left. He does not have any concubines in his family.

There were few masters and servants, and the house seemed very quiet.

At this moment, in the study, the white-haired Fu Guogong was practicing calligraphy. When he heard the announcement that it was a letter from the prefectural city, he was delighted and guessed that it was him, his only grandson, who wrote to him.

He quickly put down the pen in his hand and smiled as he told someone to bring the letter over.

After reading the letter handed over by the doorman, he ordered someone to bring Jiang Qi up.

Jiang Qi came to the study and saw Duke Fu, and hurriedly bowed; "Jiang Qi greets the old man. I pay my respects to the old man."

Duke Fu smiled as he looked at Jiang Qi, the man who had grown up with his grandson. In name they were master and servant, but in reality they were like brothers. He felt more fond of him. "No need to say that. Stand up and sit down. How is your young master?"

Jiang Qi then got up from the ground and sat down on a chair beside him. "Replying to the old man, the young master is doing well!"

Duke Fu: "Did you bring those things? Do you know how to operate them? Please tell me in detail."

Jiang Chuan: "Those two things are really good. We have all tried the sweet potato. It tastes sweet, soft and sticky. It is very filling. The only drawback is that it can easily bring bad luck. And the cement powder is even more magical. A few simple things can bring about magical changes. …………"

The Duke of the Protectorate listened to Jiang Chuan's introduction while raising his own doubts and puzzles. The old and the young talked in the study for more than an hour.

Finally, Jiang Qi took the so-called sweet potatoes to the kitchen and cooked a few dishes. He took a few bites of each. After tasting them, he felt that this thing called sweet potatoes was really good. It tasted quite good and he liked it very much.

Good taste, high yield. This is the dialect, a good thing to save your life!

After eating the sweet potatoes, he ordered the servants to fetch cement powder from the carriage, asked Jiang Qi to find a corner, and began to demonstrate how to pour concrete.

After it was done, the Duke of Fu rubbed it with a branch, and it was soft. This thing is not fixed, so what use can it have? Duke Fu was a little confused and waited for Jiang Qi to explain.

Jiang Qi said quickly, "Grandpa, we won't be able to see the results until tomorrow morning. It will take some time for it to harden. After it hardens, we need to pour water on it to cool it down."

"Okay, then I'll do as you say. I'll come back tomorrow morning to check. Once the results are out, I'll go to the palace to meet His Majesty."

Duke Fu felt that he had understood almost everything, so he asked someone to take Jiang Qi downstairs to wash up and eat. He asked Jiang Qi to rest after eating. After that, he said goodbye and asked Jiang Qi to go downstairs.

Jiang Qi was really tired, so she came out of the study as the old man said, ate something, and went to rest.

While reading the letter, the Duke of the Guardian pondered over what he had just learned from Jiang Qi. He sat in the study for a long time in silence, thinking about the two things his grandson said in the letter. If they were true, then it would be worthwhile for him to go before the emperor.

Seeing that it was still early, he simply opened the door of the study. Chang Sui Wusu was waiting in the yard. Duke Fu came out and said, "Prepare the horses. I want to go to the palace."

"Okay, sir, wait for me for a moment."

After that, he returned to the study and began to write a memorial. Thinking of his grandson's repeated requests in the county to help the woman named Yun Yiyi get some benefits, Duke Fu shook his head in amusement. This nephew doesn't like to interact closely with others easily. This is a rare time for him to speak up.

Thinking of this, the Duke of the Protectorate wrote a few more words in the memorial: "Yun Yiyi is a woman, but she has a kind heart and creative ability. I hope Your Majesty will reward her."

After writing this sentence, I put down my pen.

At this moment, Wu Su's voice rang out from the courtyard. "Grandpa, the carriage is ready. Do we want to leave now?"

"Well, let's go. It's rare that Chuan'er asks for a favor, so how can I not do it? Moreover, Wusu, if that thing is really that magical! It will benefit the people! How can such a thing be delayed?"

After saying that, he started to walk forward. Wu Su quickly followed him.

After getting on the carriage, Wu Su drove straight to the palace.
