Chapter 734: The Question of Marriage
Four pregnant concubines, so to speak, the fifth child's hidden illness is cured? Then he calculated that the fifth child broke the vows in advance, wouldn't it be impossible to steal chickens and rice?
If he hadn't been so calculating at the time, the little concubine of the fifth child would not have a few months-old cub in her belly.
Well, now that the fifth child has actually made four little cubs, he is not afraid of the wind right away!
Thinking of this, King Mu's heart was broken.
In this way, it will be too difficult to start from the fifth heir -
King Mu paced back and forth in the study, and accidentally bumped into the corner of the table, and kicked the rosewood table leg in pain, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
If he can't do anything to his heirs, then he will take his salary from the bottom of the kettle and find an opportunity to take the life of the fifth child!
The more King Mu thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was feasible.
No matter how many children the fifth child tosses, as long as the fifth child dies, what is the use of leaving a few nursing dolls? Could it be that the father and the emperor will bypass his adult son and pass on the throne to his grandson?
King Mu sat down, and his mood finally calmed down.
There is still time, as long as the father finds an opportunity before his father goes to the former commander of the Jinliang Guard, Jiang Tang, to have tea.
King Mu calmed down for a while, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.
Soon the hot summer passed, and the autumn of the twenty-sixth year of Mingkang was particularly cool, and the people in the capital had just changed into jackets in October of previous years, but it was snowing at this time of year.
In November, the snow is falling one after another, and there is a momentum of dripping water into ice, and there are fewer people in Beijing to hang out, except for necessary activities, all huddle at home to keep warm.
Loei now has Brother Hao, the son of Bing Niang, and Brother Fu, who is more than half a year old born by He, plus Liu, who is about to give birth, naturally burns the earth dragon vigorously, and does not spare charcoal money at all.
Old Madam Deng sighed at the sagging ice under the eaves, and chatted with Qiao Zhao, who came to ask for peace: "There is too much snow this winter, and I am afraid that there will be floods next spring." β
Qiao Zhao nodded.
A lot of snow is not just a problem of flooding, the people of Northern Qi can't fill their stomachs, even if they are afraid of the champion Hou of the Great Liang, they will not settle down in order to survive.
There is also Xijiang is also located in the northwest, as a barren and projectile land, life will not be much better under natural disasters, and it is inevitable to fish in troubled waters while the Northern Qi Dynasty is making trouble.
In this case, Shao Mingyuan will have to lead his troops to fight frequently.
Qiao Zhao had this understanding, and suddenly became worried about next year's wedding.
Shao Mingyuan was even more worried than Qiao Zhao.
According to his understanding of the Tartars, February and March are the most restless times for them every year, and his marriage to Zhaozhao is in February-
As long as he thinks about it like this, Shao Mingyuan's whole person is not good.
He must have a grudge against Yue Lao!
No, he has to think of a way, if he can make an exception and let Zhao Zhao marry at the end of this year.
There was no movement on Shao Mingyuan's side, and Liu suddenly had a seizure here.
Liu's health is good, and he has given birth to two more before, and with the assistance of Wen Po, the baby's loud cry sounded in the delivery room just two hours later.
"Congratulations, madam, you gave birth to a brother who weighs seven pounds. A room full of people surrounded the Liu family and said goodbye.
Liu struggled to look at the wrinkled baby, and suddenly began to cry.
"Don't cry, madam, hurt your eyes carefully. β
Liu raised his hand to wipe his tears: "Go and report the good news to the old lady." β
Thank God, of course, more importantly, thanks to the third girl, she finally has a son, and the mother and daughter will have something to rely on in the future.
As for the menβ
Hehe, she has children and daughters now, what else do she need a man for? Can she eat it as food?
The new Ding was added to the Loei Mansion, and the grief of Mrs. Deng's loss of her son was diluted a lot, and she ordered her mother-in-law to scatter a lot of happy money to go out, and the whole house was full of joy.
Liu's production went smoothly, and there was nothing to worry about in the house for the time being, this kind of icy and snowy day Qiao Zhao nested on the kang all day to read books and play chess to pass the time, and on this day he got a letter from Chenguang, and Shao Mingyuan was waiting for her in the house next door.
After putting on the snow fur and changing into deerskin boots, Qiao Zhao took Binglu to the house next door.
Shao Mingyuan was waiting at the gate, and when he saw Qiao Zhao coming over, he hurriedly held her hand and warmed her: "Beware of slippery roads." β
It has been snowing for days, even if the snow in the courtyard is swept to both sides, vacating a clean bluestone path, Shao Mingyuan still reminded.
"It's too cold. After entering the house, the heat came to his face, Qiao Zhao took off his coat, and before Binglu stretched out his hand, Shao Mingyuan took it and hung it on the hanger.
"Frozen, right?" Shao Mingyuan grabbed Qiao Zhao's hand with both hands and rubbed it gently, "Why don't you hold a hand stove?"
"Just two steps. β
Shao Mingyuan gave a look, and Chenguang smiled at Binglu: "Binglu, how about we go build a snowman?"
Binglu pouted in disgust: "Childish, I'm not a child anymore." β
Chenguang blinked: "How about using black onyx as a snowman's eyes? I also collected a ruby, which is quite suitable for the mouth." β
"Let's go!"
Seeing that the morning light had coaxed Binglu away, Shao Mingyuan smiled with satisfaction, pulled Qiao Zhao to sit down, and poured her a cup of hot tea.
Qiao Zhao took a sip of the teacup and asked with a smile, "Is there something wrong?"
On such a cold day, according to her understanding of Shao Mingyuan, if it weren't for something, she shouldn't have been asked to go out.
"There are two things. β
Qiao Zhao clenched his cup and looked at Shao Mingyuan.
"Number one, I really miss you. β
Seeing someone saying something indecent in a serious tone, Qiao Zhao coughed lightly: "Say business!"
"That's the most important thing. Shao Mingyuan was quite aggrieved.
When did he stop talking about serious things when he was such a serious person?
"And the second?"
This time, Shao Mingyuan was silent for a moment before he asked tentatively: "Zhaozhao, how about we get married in advance?"
Qiao Zhao was stunned: "It's been less than a year since my second uncle passed awayββ"
"You don't have to worry about this, you just said that you would like to marry me earlier?"
Qiao Zhao thought for a moment and bowed his head slightly.
Now that she has identified the person in front of her, she naturally hopes to marry smoothly and without any twists and turns.
Seeing Qiao Zhao nodding, Shao Mingyuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, pulled her over and kissed her on the lips.
The girl's lips were fragrant and soft, Shao Mingyuan touched it lightly and didn't dare to continue, silently suppressed the rising fire, and the corners of his mouth raised lightly: "Zhaozhao, then you just wait to be the bride." β
Qiao Zhao smiled slightly: "Then I'll wait." β
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Shao Mingyuan suddenly thought of something: "Zhaozhao, have you embroidered the wedding dress?"
The corner of Qiao Zhao's mouth froze with a smile.
At this time, can you not ask such a disappointing question?
Shao Mingyuan rubbed his face.
Seems to have said something wrong!
"Well, in fact, the wedding dress is so complicated, let's just find the embroiderer to embroider, there is no older generation to pay attention to. β
Miss Qiao nodded.
Someone is quite sensible.
"What about the hijab?"
Qiao Zhao: "......"
Don't get married!
