Chapter 153: Good news
"What's the good news? Did your in-laws find it? Bao Xi said evilly, and Ying Hua reached out to squeak her, and she laughed and hid for mercy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Empress Guo smiled and looked at the two girls joking, not at all noisy.
Xuanhua smiled: "You guess hard, what is the good news?" ā
"Is it Zhejiang?" The queen is making a small peach-colored dress, the material of poplin, the stitches are evenly matched, and people can't put it down at a glance, as if they can already see the baby wearing it inside.
Yinghua was surprised: "Niangniang is too powerful!" How do you guess it? ā
Bao Xi raised her chin proudly: "How smart is my mother, besides, the big brother has been gone for many months, and the first thing she thinks about when she opens her eyes every day is the big brother!" ā
Empress Guo didn't deny it, but only looked at Yinghua: "Is it really a matter of Zhejiang?" ā
"Yes! I heard that the good news from Zhejiang has come back! ā
"Oh? The good news naturally reached the palace, how did you know about it, a little girl? The queen immediately put down the small clothes in her hand, Ying Hua was one year older than Baoxi, her appearance was sharp, her heroic eyebrows were green without sweeping, and her water chestnut mouth was ruddy and delicate.
"Although the eight-hundred-mile urgent document can only be seen by the emperor, the person who came back to give the order was my father's subordinate...... How could such a great joy as a great victory be hidden? He said, Xuanhan's eldest brother was worried about his mother's pregnancy, and he was already on his way back, and the triumphant East China Navy was led back to Beijing by his father after resting! ā
"Big brother won the first battle, it's amazing!" Bao's eyes were full of adoration and clapped his hands.
"Mother, my eldest brother's anger sickness has not only healed, but he has also become a big hero who can fight naval battles!" Queen Guo smiled happier than her daughter, and hugged her into her arms lovingly.
Qinglu on the side also smiled and said: "Niangniang, the slave maid will let the small kitchen prepare a table of dishes, and the emperor will definitely come for dinner tonight!" When the time comes, listen carefully to how His Highness defeated the Wakos! After speaking, before the queen could answer, he walked briskly.
Ying Hua smiled and said, "I don't know when the big brother will come back, Zhejiang is far away, right?" ā
Queen Guo leaned on the big pillow given by Xuan Han and looked out the window: "I don't know when he left, this Ningbo has to be ...... away from the capital."
"Nearly two thousand, eight or nine hundred miles!"
A tall man wearing a purple gold inlaid white jade crown and a sea blue flying dragon silk robe walked in, and Bao Xi had already rushed out like a milk swallow throwing into the forest: "Father! I haven't seen you in a few days......"
The emperor hugged his daughter and touched her head lovingly, "What are you doing in such a hurry, my father is specially here to see you, and he won't run away......" There was a little bit of blame for her in her tone, only soft concern remained.
The emperor looked at the empress and said, "Even if he runs 500 miles a day, it will take six or seven days at the earliest, and he will always rest and change horses at the post station on the way, but 500 miles a day is already the limit, and besides, they have only fought fiercely with the Japanese ......."
"This time, they fought three stops and three victories! Annihilated nearly 5,000 people, the remnants of the thieves retreated to the island for a dying struggle, throwing stones at the soldiers and civilians, and for a time they had no way to take them, only to be shot dead by the crossbowmen brought by the general! The Emperor's face showed a happy expression.
"The person who came to report said that the idea of bringing a crossbowman was still Xuan Han's idea, and it was rare to use a weapon like a bow in naval warfare...... You say, how did he come up with it? Hehe...... The most peculiar thing is that there are still some local people and monks who practice martial arts and voluntarily join the anti-Japanese army, which shows that the people hate the Japanese invaders! With such military-civilian cooperation, are you still afraid of rampant misfortune? ā¦ā¦ Ha ha! ā
When the emperor spoke of the eldest son, although his face was not full of love and pride like the empress, his face was relaxed, and he was obviously very satisfied.
Bao Xi's excited little face flushed, "It's better to be like this!" Let's all make a bet! Guess when the big brother will come back, today is the first day, well, I guess he will be back in ten days......"
Yinghua found fault with her: "You can't say that, ten days is ten days, nine days is nine days, I guess he came back on the twelfth"
"Then I'll say the 10th day!" Bao Xi looked serious.
"What about you, Queen Mother?"
"Well, twenty days! After all, it's a long way to go......" she said with a faint worry, she was worried that Xuanhan would really rush day and night, it would be too hard.
The emperor intends to relax her heart, "from Zhejiang all the way back is also very interesting, maybe he does not ride a horse, buy a boat to go north to the Grand Canal, now it is summer, all the way to the red willow green that is comfortable, come back can write a good book of canal scenery...... I'm ashamed to say that I've never traveled like this! ā
Seeing that the queen was still worried, he took a few steps forward and sat on the edge of the bed and held her hand: "Tong'er, when Danyi is 100 days old, let's take a boat from the canal south and play all the way to Hangzhou, okay?" I promise you, I will take you with Bao Yu Hua and our Dan Yi next year at the latest! Good no good? ā
The emperor's eyes flashed with warmth, pet light and longing for travel, and Empress Guo was deeply infected by him, so she naturally nodded sweetly.
"A gentleman's word is hard to chase!" Bao Xi shouted with a smile.
I only heard a thunderous sound, as if it was rolling overhead, and the sky darkened in an instant, and then the crackling raindrops came down, with a heavy earthy smell, and a huge thunder, the rainstorm poured down, Baoxi's face changed, and she also hid in the queen's arms as if flying, the queen was also afraid of thunder when she was young, and now she is not bold as a mother, but to protect the children, and she will naturally become stronger.
She hugged Baohua with one hand, and beckoned to Yaohua, who was also a little uncomfortable, with the other, "Yaohua is here!" "Ying Hua is not reckless, ran to the queen's side, when I was a child, the two female dolls were like this, whenever there was thunder, the queen would hold one on one side, it had become a routine. Even though they are now thirteen or fourteen years old, when they are frightened, the two girls immediately retreat to their childhood and seek the care of their mother.
The emperor methodically instructed the palace people to close the doors and windows, and when he walked back and saw the three of them huddled together, he couldn't help but laugh, and at the same time his heart was soft, they were all his favorite women, as men and monarchs, he naturally spared no effort to protect them.
Looking at the flower-like Baoxi and Yaohua, the emperor suddenly became worried, in the blink of an eye, they were all teenagers, and they had reached the age when they should say goodbye, what kind of boys did they need to be relieved to hand over the two treasures to them? Alas, I can't give it to anyone! It's best to keep it by your side forever, thinking about it, why are your eyes a little muddy?
