Chapter 125

Ah Bao took his two children and left the Taihe Hall with apprehension and complicated feelings, still having doubts and uncertainties about Emperor Zhengde's previous words.

In fact, Ah Bao didn't think about going out with the army, if Xiao Lingshu really garrisoned the border, it was common to bring his family members, and many generals stationed at the border would bring their family members over, and there was a city allocated to the general's family members, which was also human nature. It's just that the twins are still young, not to mention the fatigue on the road, and the climate in the south of the Yangtze River and the capital is very different, the two children are still young, can they adapt there? If the twins are older, it makes sense.

Therefore, after Ah Bao knew that Xiao Lingshu really wanted to go south, he stopped thinking about other things. The twins were too young to go with the army, and she couldn't leave the twins behind, so it was impossible for her to follow.

"Mother?"

Hearing the soft children's voice, Ah Bao lowered his head, and saw his son looking up at her, his little face was a little red, sweat stains were secreted, his face was wrinkled, and he said with a flat mouth: "Niangniang, the cake is tired~"

Ah Bao realized that he had left the Taihe Hall for a long time, and they had unconsciously walked to the scope of the Imperial Garden. Now that the weather is hot, after walking for a while, the twins are sweat-stained, Ah Bao squatted down to wipe the sweat stains for them, and then picked up his son with one hand, and led his well-behaved daughter to a gazebo in the imperial garden to rest.

Putting his son down, Ah Bao took his well-behaved daughter into his arms again, gently touched her white little forehead with his forehead, and said with a smile: "Are you tired of bagging?" Only the younger brother shouted that he was tired and wanted to hug, but the daughter was afraid that she would not be able to hug the two, so intimately she did not shout tired, which made her very heartbroken.

The little guy originally learned from her father to keep a straight face, but when Po and her forehead were on her forehead, the little face couldn't hold back anymore, and showed a smile, and the black grape-like eyes were like stars falling in the sky, because the smile was bent into a cute moon bud, which was very cute. is still a baby fat little face, although it looks like Xiao Lingshu, but it has a cute childish spirit unique to girls.

Whoa!! Her cute Lori is really invincible cuteness in the universe!

Ah Bao's heart was full of joy, and he couldn't help but hug his daughter's fragrant soft little body and rub it, the mother and daughter both touched each other's foreheads and resisted each other, and suddenly the pavilion was full of cheerful laughter. Not to be outdone, the sweet cake on the side jumped over, grabbed Ah Bao's sleeve, and asked Ah Bao to hug and touch their foreheads.

After laughing for a while, Po put the two children down and fed them the water that the maid had brought with him.

Looking at the two little ones obediently leaning on her side to drink water, Ah Bao's heart was overflowing with a kind of soft love, although the little ones usually love to be mischievous, they are also obedient, most of the time they are well-behaved and cute. Usually the sister and brother may quarrel because of some trivial things, but the bag is obviously a calm sister, very tolerant, sometimes the toy is not annoyed by the younger brother, turn around to play with others. So the two little guys actually rarely quarrel and fight, so Po rarely worries.

After feeding them water, Po touched their little bellies again, which were a little flat, so he took some snacks out of the food box and let them cushion their stomachs.

Just as Ah Bao was sharing snacks with the two children, footsteps sounded outside the pavilion, and he followed the prestige, but saw that it was the seventh princess who took a few palace maids to visit the imperial garden.

The Seventh Princess had apparently also spotted the people in the pavilion, and came over with a twist of footsteps.

"It turned out to be the Fifth Emperor's sister-in-law." With a smile on her face, the seventh princess sat on the stone bench opposite Ah Bao, then looked at the two children next to Ah Bao, and said with a smile: "Yaoyao, Chenghan, I am your aunt, I want to call my aunt." ”

The twins looked at her, then at Po. The seventh princess has never been to the Jin Palace, although the twins often enter the palace, but there are not many opportunities to see the seventh princess, even if they go to Fengxiang Palace in the morning to greet the queen, there are many people at that time, and the twins can't recognize people at all, so naturally they won't notice the seventh princess who follows Qi Guifei.

After getting Po's nod, the twins called "Auntie" to the Seventh Princess.

The seventh princess responded with a smile, she was wearing a peach-pink palace dress today, her complexion was still fresh and gorgeous, combing the bun of an unmarried girl, but when she smiled, she felt a little gloomy and dignified, and it seemed that she had lost the publicity and pampering of the past.

Ah Bao couldn't help but glance at her, since she married Xiao Lingshu, the hostility that the Seventh Princess had towards her slowly disappeared, Xu is that she became the imperial sister-in-law of the Seventh Princess, she is considered an elder, it is not good to target her again, and slowly when the two meet, in addition to stopping and greeting each other, there is no original hostility, but it is very peaceful.

The seventh princess is the same age as her, and she is already an unmarried leftover girl in this era, but she is still single, and I really don't know whether to say that she is infatuated or stubborn. Zhou Yu has married a wife, and I heard that his wife Qi Xuan has a good relationship, although Zhou Yu has the mother of the eldest princess, but he has not cultivated a gentleman, he is very motivated, no matter what, he will never provoke a princess. Even if the seventh princess waits any longer, what's the use?

Ah Bao also couldn't understand the thoughts of the seventh princess, Zhou Yu was indeed a rare beautiful man, and he was still a graceful jade gentleman, when he knew that he might marry him, he also had subtle girlish feelings in his heart. But if there is no result, it will not be dead or alive, and you must marry him. Therefore, her attachment to the Seventh Princess is quite incomprehensible, what she prefers is the long-lasting feelings accumulated in daily life, which seem more real and warm, such as her and Xiao Lingshu, whose feelings have accumulated bit by bit over the long years.

But these are not her business, Ah Bao casually talked to the seventh princess, while paying attention to the two children who were eating pastries.

"Mother, eat~" The sweet cake was very filial and fed Bao a mouthful first, and then began to eat it by himself.

Ah Bao wiped the crumbs from their mouths with a handkerchief, and then heard the Seventh Princess say: "They look like the Five Emperor Brothers, but they don't look like you." ”

Po nodded.

She suddenly added, "Child...... Pretty cute, right? He is good-looking, and the child he gives birth to must be very cute, and it would be better if he was like him......"

Listening to her talk to herself, Ah Bao had a toothache and didn't hear it. Qi Xuan was diagnosed as pregnant a few years ago, and the eldest princess of Changping was so excited that she directly pulled all the doctors who were proficient in gynecology in the Tai Hospital to the eldest princess's mansion, and attached great importance to the child in Qi Xuan's belly, which was her first grandson. This matter was also widely spread in the capital, and it happened that Xiao Lingshu was poisoned and recuperated at that time, and Ah Bao heard about it, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

Just when the seventh princess couldn't control herself, there were footsteps again, but she saw that Xiao Lingshu came over with her entourage.

The seventh princess is still very afraid of this fifth emperor brother, which is why she has no hostility towards Ah Bao, she has always felt that Ah Bao will marry Xiao Lingshu, and there is also the result of her promotion, at that time, she felt a little guilty, and felt that Ah Bao married a terrible man - even if this man was her imperial brother, she still felt terrible. Seeing Xiao Lingshu's arrival, the seventh princess twitched her cheeks, and after saluting, she quickly said goodbye without staying for a moment.

Xiao Lingshu's face was pale, he didn't care about the Seventh Princess leaving, he bent down and hugged the two little ones who rushed over happily, and then said to Bao: "Let's go home." ”

Knowing that he had turned around on purpose, Ah Bao squinted his eyes and smiled, walked over, and held the children's hands with him, and the family of four walked slowly through the imperial garden.

******

In the Taihe Palace, Emperor Zhengde put down the fold.

"Princess Jin and her two children in the Imperial Garden?" Emperor Zhengde asked.

Zhang Jie had a smile on his face, took the tea presented by the palace maid and brought it to the imperial case, and said with a smile: "Yes, I heard from the palace people that the little prince was tired of walking, so Princess Jin took them to the pavilion in the imperial garden to rest, and happened to meet the seventh princess again." Later, His Royal Highness King Jin came down and took them for a walk together. The slave maid heard that the king of Jin and the princess of Jin were slowly walking around the imperial garden with their children, although they didn't talk much, but looking at them, they felt comfortable in their hearts......"

Emperor Zhengde lowered his eyes, picked up the tea on the table and drank it slowly.

Zhang Jie talked for a while, secretly inspected the emperor's expression, and saw that his eyebrows were relaxed, so he knew that he had picked this very well. Although he can't speculate on the emperor's mind to the fullest, but there is also a six or seven points, the emperor of Zhilu Dao has not said it in his mouth over the years, in fact, he has begun to have a subtle mood for the king of Jin in his heart, and there is even a kind of empathy in it, but the object of empathy is the little prince of the Jin king's mansion, and he may still not be able to face the king of Jin, but he is also trying to compensate for it.

After Zhang Jie finished speaking, Emperor Zhengde smiled and said: "It seems that I was very right to give them a marriage at the beginning, General Zhenbei originally asked me to help take care of the marriage of Princess Jin, so as not to let the old lady of the Marquis of Weiyuan choose a son-in-law who did not suit his wishes, although the conditions were absurd, but I did not expect that I had a son who was very suitable for him." ”

"General Zhenbei is a beloved daughter." Zhang Jie said with a smile, naturally he also knew that General Zhenbei secretly asked the emperor in the letter to choose a son-in-law, and asked the emperor to help. Although the request is a bit absurd, General Zhenbei has done it himself, and he wants his future son-in-law to do it. And General Zhenbei's move can be regarded as putting aside his heart for the emperor, but it makes the emperor extremely happy.

After laughing for a while, Emperor Zhengde sighed lightly and said, "I'm sorry Ah Jing, if King Jin hadn't stayed quietly in the cold palace because he met Li Mingjin, it is estimated that he would not have lived for a few years and would have gone with his mother......"

Speaking of this, my heart is full of bitterness. In the past few years, he has always thought about many things over and over again, thinking about Ah Jing's death, thinking about him throwing his son into the cold palace because of anger. Calm down and think about it, how I don't know if Li Mingjin didn't get lost in the palace back then, if King Jin didn't see Li Mingjin and aroused his idea of leaving the cold palace, I'm afraid the result would be as he guessed, it would have been long gone. Thinking of this result, my heart hurts again.

It is only before death that people reflect on the right or wrong things they have done in the first half of their lives. He didn't want to say that he had done wrong, but he knew in his heart that among his many children, he owed King Jin.

"Your Majesty, it's important to take care of the dragon's body." Zhang Jie persuaded: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin is doing well now, and he and Princess Jin are getting along, I don't know how many people envy it, and you are also relieved." ”

Emperor Zhengde smiled, looked at the fold on the table, and then said: "Since I owe him, I should also arrange one or two for him, and I will see Ah Jing in the future, and I hope Ah Jing can forgive me." ”

Zhang Jie glanced at the excerpt, his eyelids jumped slightly, but he didn't dare to look at it more, and silently began to grind the ink, listening to the emperor coughing and reviewing the excerpt, he didn't know what it was like.

The candidates for the Southern Expedition were finally decided in the rush of King Qi and the promotion of King Xian.

A few days later, Emperor Zhengde personally ordered the appointment of a series of accompanying generals, among which Xiao Lingshu was designated as a vanguard officer and led the troops to the south a month later.

As soon as this holy decree was issued, the capital suddenly became lively.

King Xian's face was very ugly, he looked at King Ning and King Chen Liu, and said coldly: "My father has never been waiting to see the fifth brother, although he has changed in the past few years, but he is not close, why did he suddenly appoint the fifth brother as a pioneer officer?" Could it be that the fifth child was in the way of his eyes in Beijing and sent him out? ”

The vanguard officer is the general who leads the leading detachment when marching or fighting, and is regarded as the vanguard unit, and has to undertake the task of exploring the path of the entire team, reconnoitering the enemy's situation, and checking the geography. And Xiao Lingshu is a prince again, and when he arrives at the border, even those big generals have to listen to his orders.

King Xian and the others have been working hard to recommend their own personnel, and seeing King Qi jumping up and down and shouting, King Ning and King Chen Liu followed the request not to be outdone. But who knew that the last thing was Xiao Lingshu, who had been silent like a wooden man, who gave this errand.

The three of them discussed carefully for a while, and they didn't know why Emperor Lu Dao Zhengde chose Xiao Lingshu, but after thinking about it for a while, King Ning said: "The fifth emperor brother has always been the right-hand man of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, if he is not in the capital, wouldn't it be better?" In fact, instead of letting the six emperor brothers leave, it is better to let the five emperor brothers leave Beijing. ”

After hearing this, King Chen Liuwang quickly figured out the joints, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's very good." ”

Xiao Lingshu aside, there are still a number of places for some of the accompanying officers on this southern expedition, and it just so happens that there are a few of them who are them, as long as they make a little use of it, they can also take advantage of this to develop their own strength in the army.

Immediately, the three of them began to discuss again.

On the other side, in the study of the East Palace, King Qi also looked incredible.

"Even if this vanguard officer doesn't have my business, but there are a lot of generals in the army, why don't you have my share either? Brother Prince, why don't you go and talk to your father and give your younger brother a place, if you can go to the battlefield with the fifth brother and kill Nanqi, you won't fall into the wind of our ancestors. King Qi jumped to his feet.

The prince directly suppressed it and said: "The holy decree has been issued, how can the decree be changed overnight?" Don't play with it! "But in my heart, I feel that it is good not to let the King of Qi go, he is too bearish, he is lawless at all, as soon as he goes there, he does not listen to the order, and he runs directly to the territory of Nanqi to spread wild, what should he do if he is cut directly?

Compared with the king of Qi, a wild horse who can only go on a rampage, the prince is much more at ease with Xiao Lingshu, especially Xiao Lingshu After nearly ten years of training, he is very familiar with the area from Jiangnan to Southern Qi, and he also has the strength to protect himself, as long as he does not go deep alone, he does not have to worry about his safety.

After the King of Qi accepted that it was impossible for him to go on the expedition with his fifth brother, he finally gave up, but soon remembered the incident and suddenly asked: "Fifth brother, is the fifth emperor's sister-in-law going to go with the army?" ”

Xiao Lingshu frowned and said nothing.

The prince said: "It's not proper, the twins are still young, the humidity in the Jiangnan area is heavy, and there is miasma, the children are weak, how can they adapt?" It doesn't hurt if it's bigger. ”

This is also what Xiao Lingshu scruples about, so he didn't write a book to ask him to bring his wife and children with him.

After hearing this, King Qi immediately patted his chest and said: "Okay, fifth brother, you can go with confidence, when you are not in Beijing, my younger brother will help you protect the palace, and you will not let random people bully the fifth emperor's sister-in-law and two children." Whoever dares to bully the king's little nephews, the king will kill them directly! The last sentence is very domineering.

The prince was a little funny, but Xiao Lingshu said very seriously: "Then it will bother the sixth brother." ”

Oh oh oh, this is the first time that the fifth brother has asked so seriously! King Qi suddenly seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, slapped his chest crackling, and made it clear that in the future, people would take good care of the Jin Palace, and even a fly would not let it fly into the Jin Palace, disturbing the people inside.

The prince couldn't help but have a headache.

*****

Ah Bao also quickly got the news in the mansion, knowing that the holy decree had been issued, and Xiao Lingshu would lead the troops south in a month, he couldn't help but sigh faintly, and he was a little distracted for a while.

"Princess?" Hua's mother looked at her with some concern.

Ah Bao didn't lose his mind for too long, and his emotions quickly converged, and said: "Mom, don't worry, although I don't know how long the prince of Ludao will go, but the children are still young, and they must stay in the capital, and I must be with them." ”

Mother Hua sighed, this is the truth. If Ah Bao doesn't have children now, or if the two children are older, they can go out with the army. In addition, Hua's mother is also a little worried that Xiao Lingshu is alone, how can she do it if there is no one around to serve her? Even if it is not arranged now, who knows if he has been in the south for a few years, will he be confused by the women in the south of the Yangtze River, find some people who don't know the details to serve, and take the favor of the princess?

Hey, what a dilemma!

Ah Bao didn't know Hua's mother's worries, and silently counted the days in his heart, there was still a month left, but he could make some preparations first. After thinking about it, he asked where the twins were, and knowing that they had gone to the practice room to play today, his face twitched, and he told the maids and guards to watch them carefully and not let them touch some dangerous things.

Xiao Lingshu came back in the evening, but when he returned to the room, he didn't see Ah Bao's figure, and walked out of the room again, and asked Bai Qian, who served him tea: "Where is the princess?" ”

Bai Qian said with a smile: "Back to the prince, the princess is in the small kitchen, and said that she will cook a few side dishes for you and the two little masters to taste today." ”

Today, after Ah Bao heard that Xiao Lingshu was going to go on an expedition, he had a rare whim and wanted to make a few delicious dishes for him to taste, so he went directly to the small kitchen to toss, and the big kitchen was only responsible for the soup and snacks and other food of the masters today.

After Xiao Lingshu went back to the room and changed into lighter clothes, he went out and went to the small kitchen in the main courtyard.

As soon as he was halfway there, he saw twins who didn't know where to play, and when they saw him, the two dwarf winter melons rushed over, pounced on him, hugged his long legs left and right, and looked at him with a smile on their faces.

Xiao Lingshu looked down at them, the son is said to look like his dead mother, the little face is tender and raw, in his eyes, he doesn't look like Ah Bao, and he doesn't know if he looks good or not, but he is small and soft, and he looks very fragile. As for his daughter, she looks like him, but her smiling appearance is not like him, he can't smile like this, and he can't learn it, but Po likes his daughter to laugh like this, saying that she is very cute and a cute Lori.

"Daddy, I'm hungry~~" The twins touched their little bellies and looked at him with blinking.

Xiao Lingshu reached out and touched their heads, and said, "Go to the kitchen." ”

The little buns didn't know what to do in the kitchen, but they all obediently stretched out their little hands and grabbed one of his fingers, and jumped with him to the kitchen.

When he arrived at the door of the kitchen, through the open window, he could see the busy people in the brightly lit kitchen, and he saw at a glance that a woman in a dark green summer shirt was standing in front of the stove with a spatula and stir-frying, as if she was the most special in the whole room, so that he could find it at a glance.

The twins crossed their feet and looked inside, and naturally saw Ah Bao, and hurriedly shouted: "Niangniang~~"

Ah Bao looked up and saw the father and son standing at the door, with a smile on his face, stir-fried again, poured in water, covered the pot and began to simmer. After doing all this, she handed over the kitchen to the maids to watch, and she went to the door.

"The prince is back! How did you guys get here? ”

The little buns touched their stomachs with their little hands, and they all shouted at her: "Niangniang, hungry~~"

After hearing this, Ah Bao reached out and pinched their little faces, "You two little villains, you came back when you were hungry, where did you go to play?" At the same time, he instructed the maid to bring over the two bowls of steamed minced pork custard, and give them some stomach cushions first.

Outside the small kitchen is a flat land, and there is also an elm tree, under which there are stone tables and chairs, Ah Bao asked the maids to put on cushions and cloth towels, so that the father and son can sit here and eat something to cushion their stomachs, and she still has two dishes to do.

This move won the hearts of the three of them, at this time it was the twilight of spring, and the sun was setting, the temperature was neither hot nor cold, which was suitable for outdoor activities. Blowing the breeze and listening to the slight rattling sound of the elm money tree, it is extremely pleasant.

The twins clumsily took the spoon to dig the custard and eat, Xiao Lingshu sat next to him, looked at them, and then looked at the woman in the kitchen who was cooking by herself, and a very gentle light slipped in her dark eyes.
