At the end of June, it was too hot to be true. When I walked out of the house, a wave of heat hit my face. The sun also became a great furnace, and the whole earth seemed to be baked.

Yuxi returned from the front yard to the backyard, and it was too hot to be satisfied. Mama Quan hurriedly took out the watermelon that was placed in the well and served it to Yuxi. It's also quite strange to say that Ok-hee doesn't like things that are chilled with ice cubes. In fact, during the scorching heat, eating some is not harmful to the body, but Yuxi doesn't like it.

After eating two pieces of chilled watermelon, Yuxi felt a lot more refreshed: "I don't know how the prince and Ah Hao are now?" She just returned to the backyard from the front yard, and it was too hot to walk a few steps, and the father and son who were far away on the grassland didn't know what was going on.

Quan Mama said with a smile: "I think the prince and the prince are okay, but I am the lord of the big county, I am afraid that it will be difficult in Yucheng." "In the house, Zao Zao lives in the coolest bamboo garden in the house, and it is too hot, and the house has to put two buckets of ice cubes to sleep. Now in Yucheng, there are no conditions for a royal palace.

Yuxi hummed and said, "Yin Zhaofeng wrote to me two days ago, saying that Zao Zao wants to come back. It's just that the doctor said that he would raise another one, and I plan to let her come back with the prince. ”

Mama Quan smiled and said, "The big county lord must have been uncomfortable in Yucheng to want to go home. In Grandma Quan's impression, Zao Zao is a person who doesn't miss home.

"This is just the beginning, and there will be suffering in the future. "The female general is not so easy to be, just like her, she has suffered a lot to get to this day.

Mama Quan agreed with Yuxi's words and said, "This road is really not easy to walk. "Women, no matter what you do in this world, it's not so easy.

After lunch, I talked to Mama Quan again, and then lay down. No matter how hot the day is, I still have to sleep in the afternoon. Otherwise, you won't be able to do it in the afternoon.

Yuxi in her sleep felt that someone was shaking herself, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Meilan beside her bed. Looking at Meilan's excited face, Yuxi probably knew what was going on.

Meilan said excitedly: "Princess, the good news from the front is that the prince has defeated the northern captives and killed the king of the northern captives. "Meilan's father died at the hands of the Northern Captives, so Yun Qing is so excited now that she has defeated the Northern Captives and killed the King of the Northern Captives.

A smile also appeared on Yuxi's face, but she was not as excited as Meilan. Yuxi said, "Fetch me the clothes." "I'm already awake, and it's impossible to sleep anymore.

As soon as I got dressed, I heard messy footsteps outside, and no one needed to know that it was triplets.

When Brother Rui saw Yuxi, he grabbed the sleeve of her dress and asked, "Mother, I just heard that my father killed the king of the Northern Captivity, is this true?" The herald began to proclaim loudly from the gate of the palace, not to mention the triplets, and everyone else in the palace also knew about it.

Yuxi smiled and said, "It's true." But my mother just got up, and I haven't looked at the good news sent in front of me, and the details are not clear. ”

Brother Rui'er was so excited that his face turned red: "Mother, when will Dad come back?" He was proud to have such a father.

The calmest among the triplets is Brother You'er: "The second brother asked this, and my father will naturally come back when he should come back." "Actually, Brother You is also very excited, but he is more stable than Brother Rui.

Yuxi smiled and said, "Mother still has something to deal with, you go back to class." "Yunqing's victory in the battle is a great joy, but there are still many things to deal with after the war, and I don't know how many casualties there are in this decisive battle.

When Brother Rui heard this, he said dryly: "Mother, my father killed the king of the northern captives and destroyed the northern captives, such a big happy event should be celebrated, right?"

Brother You glanced at Brother Rui, how can you hide it from your mother with this little bit of caution!

Yuxi nodded and said, "It's definitely going to be celebrated, but it won't be until your father comes back." Now, hurry to class and don't make Mr. wait. "Fortunately, Brother Xuan and Brother You are very fond of learning, and having them look at Brother Rui has saved her a lot of things. Otherwise, Brother Rui is afraid that he will have to follow the old path of jujubes.

Out of the courtyard, Brother Rui whispered: "I really envy the eldest brother." "Envy Qihao for being able to follow Yunqing on the expedition, looking at his father's domineering appearance when he destroyed the Northern Captivity.

Brother You said with a smile: "This can't be helped, who made us small!" Brother You knew very well why Yunqing sent troops to the North Captivity, and took the eldest brother there. The so-called martial arts, talent, and intelligence are all excuses, and the real reason is that the eldest brother is the eldest son and the future heir.

Brother Xuan interjected weakly and said, "I think it's good to be a little one." "He didn't want to go to war with him, it was too dangerous.

When Yuxi arrived in the front yard, he saw that everyone was happy. When Xu Daniu saw Yuxi, he raised his voice even more happily: "Princess, the prince has destroyed the northern captivity." "These soldiers who came out of Yucheng all hated the northern captives. Because the northern captives destroyed their homes and killed their families and comrades.

Xu Wu walked in from the side door, and when he saw Yuxi, he was also full of smiles: "Princess, the good news is on the table." "Except for Xu Wu and Xu Daniu, no one else can enter the study.

Yuxi smiled and nodded, and then entered the house.

Xu Daniu touched his head and said, "Boss, why don't I look at the princess and don't seem to be very happy?"

Xu Wu patted Xu Daniu's head and scolded with a smile: "Which eye did you see that the princess was unhappy? Do you think the princess is like you, stupidly happy?" It's just that the princess is more introverted, not as emotionally outgoing as them.

On the table, there is not only the good news ahead, but also the letter from Yunqing and Qihao.

Ten lines of good news at a glance, read it as quickly as possible. Yun Qing's letter said that the matter of the Northern Capture was over, and he would return to Ho City soon. It was Qi Hao, who said in the letter that Yunqing's injuries had improved a lot, and he had to take care of it if he wanted to heal.

After reading Brother Hao'er's letter, Yuxi raised his eyebrows and said, "I was fooled." "If I had injured my arm, it would have been so long. I think it's not just my arm that hurts, I must have hurt it somewhere else. However, because Yunqing's life is not in danger, Yuxi is not worried.

After calling Xu Wu into the house, Yuxi said, "Send someone to invite Tan Tuo, Shen Chunting, and Yuan Ying to come over." "The war in the North is coming to an end, and it is time to prepare for the aftermath.

Xu Wu nodded and said, "Princess, is there still martial law in the city?" According to Xu Wu, the battle ahead has been fought, and there is no need for martial law in the pickaxe city.

Yuxi said, "No need. "Even if Yan Wushuang wants to destroy it now, she is not afraid.

discussed with Tan Tuo and the three of them for another afternoon after the war. It wasn't until it was almost dark that the conversation was over.

As soon as she got out of the house, Meilan said, "Princess, the second uncle and wife are here, and now they are waiting in the backyard!" The Lu family came in half an hour, and knowing that Yuxi was talking to the minister, she waited patiently in the backyard.

Seeing Yuxi with a tired face, Lu Xiu felt that she had come at an inopportune time.

Yuxi washed her face and drank another bowl of chilled mung beans, then sat down and asked, "Second sister-in-law, is there something wrong?"

Lu Xiu said with a smile: "I heard that the prince won a great victory, I have come to congratulate you! Yuxi, the prince has exterminated the northern captivity, and he has also killed the northern captivity, such a feat will surely be passed down through the ages." ”

When Yuxi heard this, the smile on his face deepened a little, but he said very modestly: "The destruction of the Northern Captivity is not his credit alone. "The head work definitely belongs to Yunqing.

After a few words of greeting, Yuxi asked about Qiqi's marriage: "Now that the war in the Northern Captivity is over, it's time to set the wedding date with the Feng family." "This time the troops were sent to the north, and Feng Zhiao also followed. However, he did not follow Qi Hao, but followed his father Feng's army.

Lu Xiu said with a smile: "If this thing is in a hurry, it will not look good." "If you want to mention the marriage date, it should also be Feng Jiati.

Yuxi nodded and said, "That's true. But I think Mrs. Feng should come to the door to mention this matter these days. "Now that the war in the Northern Captivity has ended, Feng Dajun and Feng Zhiao are all right, and Mrs. Feng is now in the mood and energy to talk about marriage.

Lu Xiu is not worried about this, mainly because Yuxi is here, and the Feng family does not dare to do anything that makes the Han family lose face, so it is good to have a strong backer. Lu Xiu said: "After the wedding date of Qiqi is set, I should also set the wedding date of Brother Shun." "Han Jianming and Han Jianye have not separated, so the young and old are orderly, before Qiqi gets married, it is impossible for Brother Shun to marry a wife, otherwise, the face is not very good-looking.

Yuxi smiled and said, "Then you will be tired again." "I've been busy for more than half a year since I got married.

Lu Xiu said: "As long as they can live a harmonious and beautiful life in the future, it is worth being tired." "Qiqi's dowry has already been prepared, which will save her a lot of things.

Yuxi said: "The eldest brother is busy with official business, so he can't go back to Qiqi's wedding. As for the mother, the two places are thousands of miles apart, and it is estimated that she will not come back. ”

Lu Xiu was not surprised: "I told Qiqi about this, and Qiqi is also prepared." "As the governor of Jiangnan, it is impossible for the eldest uncle to leave his official duties and return to Ho City because of his daughter's marriage.

Hearing this, Yuxi smiled and said: "There is no war in Yunnan now, and when Brother Shun gets married, I can let the second brother come back." "Yunnan is now in a state of stalemate, and it is definitely impossible to use troops again this year.

"It would be great if the lord could come back. "It was a bonus.

Lu Xiu had dinner in the palace and went back.

Yuxi didn't have time to accompany Liu Er and the triplets: "Mother still has a bunch of things to deal with, you go back to your own hospital!"

That night, Yuxi was busy until midnight. While taking a bath, Mama Quan asked, "The prince has won a big battle, why are you still frowning? Could it be that the prince is injured again?" Yuxi is now very concerned about maintenance, and he will take a medicinal bath in two days. Then she had to apply the balm specially prepared for her by Mama Quan on her face and body.

Yuxi shook his head and said, "The prince is fine, he is not injured." It's just that there is a drought in some areas of Shanxi and Henan, and the harvest will definitely be greatly reduced. "The last thing I like is that I encounter a drought or flood, which breaks my muscles and bones.

Mama Quan was sent to be a palace maid because of a disaster when she was a child, and immediately asked, "Is it serious?"

Yuxi said: "It's more serious. Fortunately, the harvest in Jiangnan is not bad. "The rice was harvested in June, and by now the rice has almost been harvested. She has already received news that this year's harvest in Jiangnan is more than 10% less than last year's. However, compared to Hebei and other places, it is already good.

Quan Mama couldn't help but say: "Fortunately, the war in the northern captivity has ended. ”

Yuxi shook his head and said, "If it weren't for the northern captivity this time, the food would not be so tight." "Last year, Jiangnan had good weather and an excellent harvest. Elsewhere, the harvest was not bad.

When Quan Mama heard this, she said, "So, it's time to have a holiday again?"

"Why don't you cut back on food and clothing? "But she's going to have to worry about the money again.

Seeing this, Mama Quan said: "When the prince comes back, you will throw this mess to him and rest for two days." "Let Yunqing know the difficulty of not having money, so that Yunqing won't always think about fighting.

Yuxi smiled and said, "Let him deal with it, I'm afraid it will be a mess when the time comes." Forget it, this time the nest of the northern captives will be wiped out, and I believe that a lot of loot should be obtained, and when the time comes, it will also be able to make up for some of the loopholes. ”

Mama Quan didn't have hope for this: "This northern captive is so poor that he can have anything valuable?" If they were rich, they wouldn't have even robbed the pots and pans of the people in the border city.

This is also because Quan Mama doesn't understand the market, and this pot and pan is very expensive in Beijiao.

Yuxi didn't think so, and said: "The princes and nobles of the Northern Captivity must have hidden a lot of good things. "There must still be some gold and silver treasures.

There is also Qihao who has similar thoughts to Mama Quan. So when he saw the loot confiscated, Qi Hao was stunned. Cat's eyes the size of dragons, fist-sized emeralds, pigeon's blood red, sapphires, diamonds, and pearls of all colors, as well as countless gold and silver. These things are almost dazzling people's eyes.

Qi Hao's heart was still good, and he quickly calmed down, and then asked Yun Qing: "Dad, didn't you say that the Northern captives were so poor that they didn't have anything to eat? Why do they have so many treasures?" These things are worth millions of taels together.

Yun Qing patted Qi Hao's back with a smile and said, "The poor are just ordinary herdsmen, and those princes and nobles are still clothed and fed. Moreover, they did not do much to burn, kill, and loot. These things have been accumulated over the years. ”

Qi Hao took out a walnut-sized emerald from one of the boxes and said, "My mother likes these green stones the most, take this to make a forehead for my mother." ”

Yun Qing smiled and said, "Pick out all the best gems here and send them to your mother." What jewelry to do, let her decide for herself. "The gold and silver treasures are to be put into storage, and these jewels will go into Yuxi's private treasury except for some of them to be rewarded for the meritorious officials below.

When Qi Hao heard this, he put the emerald in his hand back into the box.
