Chapter 58: Subpoena

With Xiao Anzi's life, it has become full and beautiful.

Bu Qin said that as long as Xi Yunzhi hugged Xiao An, the corners of her mouth would never close, either teasing him or watching him sleep, and she couldn't get enough of it.

Xi Yunzhi felt that he was not as exaggerated as Bu Qin said, but he felt that life was so magical, and the baby who was still conceived in his womb before came out in the blink of an eye.

Xiao An has already faded the red and wrinkled skin of the first few days, and has become white and tender, with two chubby little hands exposed, so cute that people can't help but want to pinch it, but they are reluctant to start.

Bu Qin will try to come back as early as possible every day, and sit in front of Xiao An's cradle for most of the hour.

The hot summer is almost over, Xi Yunzhi made two sets of clothes for each of their father and son, using the southern silk bought in the fabric shop before, Xi Yunzhi's workmanship under the teaching of Aunt Lan, the craftsmanship has advanced by leaps and bounds, from cutting to sewing, to splicing and embroidery, everything is done handy, and even Bu Qin, who has no requirements for food and clothing, praised her.

In the evening, the husband and wife sat on the soft couch, Xi Yunzhi pillowed on Bu Tan's lap to read the embroidery book, and Bu Qin sat on the side, pressed her stomach to play, and after playing for a while, he said to Xi Yunzhi:

"I'm probably going to go on a campaign."

In just a few words, Xi Yunzhi's eardrums and atrium rang, she put down the embroidery book, sat up, looked at him blankly, and couldn't help repeating those two unfamiliar words in her mouth:

"Out of ...... Levy ......"

Seeing her like this, Bu Qin smiled comfortingly and said, "Yes, I've been back for so long, I have to do something." ”

Looking at Xi Yunzhi's worried look, although Bu Qin couldn't bear it, he still planned to tell the truth:

"The emperor summoned me to the palace a few days ago and ordered me to go to the northwest to conquer the offenders, and it won't take long."

Xi Yunzhi looked at him: "How long will it take?" ”

Seeing her unhappy look, Bu Qin took her into his arms, kissed the top of her head, and said:

"Up to three months. I have fought with the Inujon army in the past, and I still know a little about their marching formation, so it will be fine, and I promise that I will return in three months. ”

After Bu Qin finished speaking, he clenched his fist and cocked his thumb to Xi Yunzhi, this is the stamping technique she taught him in the past, it was originally a playful gesture, but now it is used by him to make such a big promise, Xi Yunzhi is a little crying and laughing.

Reluctantly, he reached out and touched his fingertips, and then withdrew it.

Bu Qin didn't want the atmosphere to become solemn, so he simply turned over, pressed Xi Yunzhi under him, pressed her resisting hand to the top of her head, pretended to untie her clothes, and said:

"Have you drained all your lochia?"

Xi Yunzhi suddenly heard his straightforward words, couldn't help but blush, twisted and wanted to get up, but was crushed by Bu Tan, seeing that he looked like a rogue overlord with a hard bow, Xi Yunzhi simply bit him on the shoulder.

Bu Qin was in pain, so she pretended to be angry, and tickled Xi Yunzhi's waist, which made Xi Yunzhi writhe, if it weren't for the fact that her body was not completely clean, Bu Qin wanted her on the spot, so that she could see what her man looked like.

Xi Yunzhi felt the changes in Bu Tan's body, couldn't help blushing, withdrew her wrist from his palm, touched the place where she bit before, and pouted:

"Get up...... The milk is overflowing. ”

“……”

***

On the day Bu Tan set out on the expedition, he heard that all the people in the city went to see it.

Xi Yunzhi did not go. Instead, after feeding, Xiao An was handed over to two nurses to take care of, and he went to Jiwangfu.

She waited in the palace for a whole day before Xiao Luo came back from outside, and when she saw Xi Yunzhi, she felt a little surprised, and she also had a bad premonition in her heart.

Thinking like this, Xi Yunzhi didn't say hello and asked him directly:

"How many soldiers does Husband have this time?"

Xiao Luo saw her awe-inspiring expression, knowing that she must have noticed something, and it would be pointless for him to deceive again, so he replied directly:

"Twenty thousand."

Xi Yunzhi remained silent: "What about the opponent's troops?" ”

Xiao Luo's scalp was numb from her staring, he never knew that a woman's shrewd gaze was so terrifying, and after a little hesitation, he also replied truthfully: "One hundred thousand." ”

Xi Yunzhi closed her eyes and exhaled deeply, she knew that things would not be as simple as her husband said, 20,000 against 100,000...... He even dared to promise that she would return within three months.

"Why did the emperor only give 20,000 soldiers and horses?"

Xi Yunzhi asked the last question.

This question made Xiao Luo even more difficult to answer, and after hesitating for a long time, he said briefly:

"Zuo Prime Minister Li You and Zhenguo Gonghe Liancheng admonished, saying that the Bu family has been in the military for generations, and General Bu is the god of war in the army with one block of hundreds, and 20,000 soldiers and horses are enough to deal with the barbarians."

“……”

Only then did Xi Yunzhi understand what her husband meant when he said that he didn't want to come back, with such a monarch and minister, he still didn't forget to intrigue and eradicate dissidents when the war was imminent, no wonder her husband and monarch had been loyal and brave for generations, and they all had the heart to change to the master.

Xiao Luo looked at Xi Yunzhi's lowered head, not knowing what she was thinking, so he pretended to be relaxed and comforted:

"General Bu Jiren Tianxiang, if he returns triumphantly this time, the comeback of the Bu family will be just around the corner, opportunities are often hidden in risks, Mrs. Bu must have confidence in the general."

“……”

Xi Yunzhi didn't speak, but stared at Xiao Luo for a long time, and then quietly took a step back and said goodbye to him.

The so-called comeback is nothing more than re-entering the fire pit. Horizontal and vertical can't escape the life of the Xiao Dynasty, this is the pathetic of being a courtier, and she is powerless to change it.

***

At the beginning of October, an even more unexpected news came to Xi Yunzhi's ears.

The Xi family, which has declined in Luoyang, actually took the exam at this juncture. The former five-room concubine, Xi Yun.

Xi Yun and Xi Yunzheng are half-brothers and sisters, I have never heard of Xi Yun's talent, but he has been pressed by his sister Xi Yunzheng, and now he was admitted to the lifting of people when the Xi family was declining, which is undoubtedly a rain for the Xi family who has fallen into dryness.

is not only for the Xi family in Luoyang, but also for Xi Yunzheng, Xi Yun is also a piece of rain.

After she learned about this, she repaired the book to the Xi family, saying that she wanted Xi Yun to come to the capital to wait for the exam, so she stayed in the Zuo Governor's Imperial History Mansion, and for this matter, Lord Yin was happy to see it, he felt that he was more willing to have a big brother-in-law with unlimited potential than a main room that had lost the family's support.

After Xi Yunzheng repaired the book, he originally thought that only Xi Yun came to defect, but he didn't expect that behind Xi Yun, he actually brought a few other people.

The old lady has had enough of coarse tea and light meals in Luoyang, and she almost can't wait to follow her grandson to the capital to enjoy the blessings of her granddaughter, Xi Yuan and Dong in the second room are not far behind, and they are cheeky and follow the old lady to come over, claiming to be Xi Yunzheng's elder, and naturally there is Xi Yunzheng's own father Xi Qing, who was recommended by the Xi family as Xi Yun's teacher for the exam this time.

Although Xi Yunzheng felt in his heart that it was very troublesome for this big family to come to defect, but when he thought of his current precarious status in the mansion, and felt that it would be good to have a few more family members around him, he assigned the small courtyard southeast of the Zuo Governor's Imperial History Mansion to the Xi family to live in.

***

After Xi Yunzhi learned that someone from the Xi family had come to the capital, he didn't feel that his life had changed much.

She still lives every day with Xiao An, teasing Xiao An, buying a house, selling a house, making money, and waiting for her husband. Although everyone in the Xi family knew that she was also in the capital, but now they are birds with broken wings, they can't fly high, they can't jump far, and they have long lost the capital to find her bad luck, and her husband deliberately left a hundred soldiers for her before going on the expedition to protect their safety, so Xi Yunzhi is not worried that they will find it at all.

Zhen ran to Bu's house at two ends in three days, in order to take a few more glances at her godson, and by the way, accompany Xi Yunzhi, the two women sat under the grape trellis, gossiping.

Xi Yunzhi saw that she was wearing a string of black things on her wrist, so she asked:

"What is this?"

Zhen raised his hand, stretched out his wrist in front of Xi Yunzhi, and said with a smile: "This is the former concubine summoned and rewarded me with a tranquilizing pearl, after wearing it, I feel a lot more settled." ”

Xi Yunzhi took a closer look and said, "The material of this chain is very rare, I have also sold this kind of Persian black beads in the past, but you seem to be ...... A little more incense, it was really given by the concubine, which is extraordinary. ”

After Zhen listened to what Xi Yunzhi said, he fell on the bead chain and was silent for a long time.

Xiao An didn't know what kind of nightmare he had, and suddenly startled, Xi Yunzhi hurried over to look at him, bent in front of the cradle and gently patted him to sleep, but Zhen stood up suddenly, startling Xi Yunzhi, only to see that after Zhen and Xi Yunzhi said goodbye for a short time, they left the Bujia house alone.

I don't know why she is like this, Xi Yunzhi suddenly remembered the smell on her wrist before-sandalwood?

No wonder it feels familiar, in the past, Mrs. Xi's favorite was sandalwood, which had the effect of calming the mind, but it was not conducive to a woman's pregnancy, and the concubine clearly rewarded Zhen's with this kind of thing, and that intention was equivalent to telling Zhen directly, I don't want you to get pregnant again. No wonder Zhen's face immediately changed.

Xi Yunzhi doesn't understand this palace matter, and he doesn't want to understand it, the royal family always has their selfish truths, and they put people at the mercy of their hands, so that you live, you will live, let you die, you will die, so that you can't get pregnant, even if you are pregnant, I will let you fall......

It's terrifying.

***

Xi Yunzhi was thinking about the royal ruthlessness at this time, and the palace was a summons.

Princess Jing asked her to take Xiao An to the palace to ask for peace, this matter itself is full of doubts, Xi Yunzhi has never experienced this, and even rushed to the Jiwang Mansion to find Zhen.

After hearing this, Zhen stood up from the soft couch: "What? What did she tell you to do? Do you want Xiao An to go with you? ”

Xi Yunzhi shook his head: "I don't know, so didn't I come to ask you, like this situation, do I have to go?" ”

Zhen stepped down and said while pacing: "Princess Jing summoned the official wife, you must go, but rest assured, you have nothing to do with her, she told you to go, I'm afraid it's just a beating, you go first, after an hour, if you don't come out, I will personally visit you to find you." ”

"......" Xi Yunzhi looked at her gratefully, only to see that the black bead chain on her wrist was still worn, but it didn't seem to be as black and bright as yesterday's, and after saluting Zhen, she was about to leave, but Zhen chased after her and continued:

"You bring the two nurses with you, try not to let their people come into contact with Xiao An, the hearts of the people in the palace are bad, don't be careless."

“……”

Xi Yunzhi thanked Zhen, and then went back to the house to prepare.

Although I don't know what medicine is sold in Princess Jing's gourd, she is the one who is in the upper position and summons the lower position, and there is indeed no reason to disobey it, and if she has a plan in her heart, she is not so afraid.

packed up, hugged Xiao An, and took Ruyi Ruyue and two nurses to the carriage to Jingwang's mansion.

In the darkness, several figures moved with the car.
