When he returned home from the temple, Qiao called Mei Ru to him. Seeing that the daughter on the tip of his heart is becoming more and more marked, Qiao's heart likes it, but he is faintly anxious, and he doesn't know how to see it today. She didn't know how to speak, and now she only stared at Mei Ru tangled.

At that time in Lianxiang Temple, Mei Ru guessed her mother's plan - she must have hoped that Cousin An didn't fall in love with the second sister and fell in love with her. Now seeing that her mother didn't speak, Mei Ru's roots were slightly hot, and she called: "Mother." ”

Touching his daughter's soft hair, Qiao said, "How is today?" ”

"Not bad." Mei Ru replied deliberately.

"What's good?" Qiao's eyes couldn't wait to shine.

Mei Ru smiled: "The scenery in the temple is good. He added: "I also asked for a peace charm for my brother and sister Yue'er." "Needless to say, Mei Xiang went into battle to kill the enemy, Sister Yue had a rash on her body in the past few days, and the doctor didn't dare to take heavy medicine, so now she can only raise it slowly. Seeing that Sister Yue'er's little hand was about to scratch her face, Mei Ru handed the peace charm she asked for to the little girl. Sister Yue grabbed it all of a sudden, smiled, and forgot about the previous incident.

Qiao Shi understood that Mei Ru was playing with herself, so she poked her forehead with her hand and said, "You girl is poor with your mother!" ”

Mei Ru told her to spare, and said frankly: "Good mother, don't push your daughter outside in the future." ”

"How?" Joe was curious.

Mei Ru whispered: "My cousin is good, it's a pity that I don't like it, but the second sister seems to like it." If my mother does this again, I won't be able to deal with my second sister in the future. ”

"What's not to like?" Qiao's face bluffed her, "The little girl doesn't have a door to speak, so people are not ashamed to hear it!" ”

Mei Ru stuck out her tongue, grabbed Qiao's arm and said, "Anyway, there are two mothers and daughters in the room, if you don't make it clear, I'm afraid that my mother will have to work hard in the future." ”

Joe sighed. Looking at her coquettish daughter beside her, she frowned and asked quietly, "Follow-up, who do you like?" ”

"Mother!" Mei Ru was frightened, and her pretty face turned red.

Qiao Shi glared: "Aren't you worried about this little girl?" She was really afraid that her daughter would be wronged.

How did Mei Ru not know what her mother meant? In her previous life, she was able to marry Fu Zheng, and Qiao's was very happy, even on the day she died, she couldn't speak, and she looked at Fu Zheng in a daze, and couldn't let it go. Fu Zheng responded at that time, "This king will take good care of Xunxun", and Qiao's eyes were closed with peace of mind...... The bottom of her heart sank, and she sighed gloomily, Mei Ru reluctantly smiled: "Mother, my daughter is still young, and I haven't thought about this kind of thing for the time being." Then he tentatively blew the wind in his ears: "Mother, if I can travel around like my husband, I feel very comfortable, what do I want to marry and be subject to that constraint?" ”

Qiao Shi directly knocked her head this time: "You know nonsense!" And he said, "Don't have such thoughts!" ”

"Oh." Mei Ru replied slowly.

Back in her own courtyard, she sat lazily in front of the bookcase. On the case is an unfinished painting, Mei Ru originally wanted to dedicate it to her ancestor in February to celebrate his birthday. Looking at it lightly now, she was so excited that she was too lazy to write again, so she only ordered Jingqin to accept it for the time being. After sitting for a while, Mei Ru took out the translation that Mr. Pingyang had reviewed, added and deleted.

This look, and the more she compared, she felt more and more that she was really ...... Far from it.

Mei Ru sighed quietly, secretly working harder and harder.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Meng Yunlan came to invite Mei Ru to see the lanterns as she did last year. Mei Ru said that she didn't want to go this time. Since she found out that Cousin Ann may have a little different thoughts about herself, she just wants to hide. Speaking of which, it was because Mei Ru noticed a little bit of the meaning of the second sister. That day in the pavilion behind the Lianxiang Temple, after she said the words "suitable or inappropriate" to her second sister, Mei Qian lowered her eyes, her ears were red, and her plain and gentle eyes were shining.

Mei Ru likes people, although the second sister didn't say it explicitly, but isn't this the cousin who likes An? She really didn't want to get involved in this matter, and she didn't have that extra thoughts about Cousin An, and she was afraid that there would be a split between the sisters, so Mei Ru simply hid away.

Meng Yunlan was indignant: "Follow the rules, you really don't go? ”

Mei Ru shook her head: "I still have to go to Mr.'s mansion, I really won't go today." ”

Mr. Pingyang is unmarried, and now he has accepted a disciple of Mei Ru under his knees, and Mei Ru has to serve every New Year's holiday. In this way, Meng Yunlan really didn't want to invite her again, and it was a pity to say something outside of it.

When she saw Meng An, this person's gaze brushed over, and Mei Ru lowered her head and did not speak. His gaze paused for a moment, and then looked away uncomfortably.

They went to shop for lanterns, while Mei Ru went to Mr. Pingyang's house alone.

As it was dark today, and it was bustling outside, Mei Ru liked this, she quietly lifted the curtain and looked out. I saw that the lights on both sides of the street were as long as water, and the night was also a few points faint, so she secretly looked at it. When she arrived at the back streets and alleys in front of Mr. Pingyang's house, Mei Ru met Fu Zhao.

On the first day of the new year, the two of them were angry, and now Mei Ru just didn't see the lord who was difficult to serve, and went straight to Mr. Pingyang's house.

Fu Zhao let out a "hey" behind him and asked, "What about the New Year's gift?" ”

"What?" Mei Ru tilted her head and asked coldly.

Fu Zhao said heavily: "You said in person last time, 'next time' will give me the New Year's gift, now this is trying to deny?" ”

Mei Ru choked: "Didn't Your Highness also say that my things can't get into His Highness's eyes?" ”

This is obviously shooting yourself in the foot...... Fu Zhao was depressed again, and he flattened his mouth and said: "Now that it is about to enter the eyes of this prince, isn't it?" ”

"Nature does." Mei Rufu continued to sarcastically say, "It's just that His Highness will be in his eyes for a while, and he won't be in his eyes for a while, this is really incredible, why don't His Highness summon a doctor to take a look at these eyes after returning to the palace?" ”

“……”

Fu Zhao was choked again! He almost forgot that Mei Ru is the most sharp-toothed, and this person is also the best at picking on the leaks of others' speech! After being indignant for a long time, Fu Zhao really didn't know how to deal with it, and Mei Ru was slightly overwhelmed, and she had already turned around and walked into Mr. Pingyang's mansion.

Fu Zhao returned to the palace depressed, and secretly wondered for a while, why is there no news from Seventh Brother? I wonder if he's safe.

It is said that this battle is extremely hard, the sky is cold outside the Yumen Pass, and it happens that the grain road is cut off by the Hu people in the north, two days ago I also heard that my father was worried about this, and summoned people into the palace overnight to discuss it.

sighed, Fu Zhao only hoped that Seventh Brother could return to Beijing earlier, and he also wanted Seventh Brother to check for him and come up with ideas!

Whether it is Fu Zhao or Emperor Yanchang, this battle is like a gray that presses on the hearts of all the people of the Great Wei Dynasty, thick and heavy, and the year that should be festive has passed plainly. The tenth day of the second month of February is the birthday of Mrs. Du of Meifu, which should have been done in a big way, but when this kind of war is tightened, Meifu does not plan to make a big show. On the seventh day of the first lunar month, the northwest road sent back 800 miles to play the fold, and the emperor won the battle! Now that these two days, the capital is talking about this, and the old lady's birthday banquet can naturally be prepared well.

When Mei Ru came out of Mr. Pingyang, she heard the streets and alleys talking about this battle, and the most talked about was naturally His Royal Highness King Yan.

Over the years, the Wei Dynasty and Xiqiang have fought many times one after another, and this time it is the only victory in recent years, and it is a complete victory!

It is said that when the two armies were stuck at Yumen Pass, Fu Zheng quietly led thousands of light horsemen, and unexpectedly rushed day and night from the long yellow sand, taking advantage of the emptiness of Xiqiang's country, he went around the opponent's back and killed them by surprise. As a result, the other party could not figure out the situation, was in a hurry, and had to retreat in a hurry, so the Wei army pursued it in several ways...... Several places were encircled, and the Xiqiang army was instantly dispersed, and most of the people were slaughtered outside the Yumen Pass.

That's not all, Fu Zheng led the people all the way to the capital of Xiqiang, and captured several cities along the way.

The only strange thing is that Fu Zheng won the battle and did not return to the court immediately, and he sent back a recital to Emperor Yanchang. The meaning of the excerpt seems to be to respectfully invite the envoys to enter Xiqiang and discuss the submission of Xiqiang. Originally, the Wei Dynasty was in civil strife, and Xiqiang broke away. The two countries have fought for so many years, and now Xiqiang has been defeated again, and it is really happy to surrender to the Wei Dynasty! As a result, Fu Zheng's praise was even greater.

These words of discussion floated into her ears, Mei Ru sighed, the only thought turned out to be that Zhou Suqing was really cheap!

She still took a car to Honglu Temple today. Before he could read a few pages of the book, a little Liu Gonggong in front of the queen came over, and Xuan Meiru entered the palace.

It can be regarded as having met with Xiao Liu's father-in-law twice, Mei Ru was curious: "Father-in-law Liu, I don't know what the queen's mother announced about me?" ”

Liu Gonggong said: "Our family doesn't know about this, but the third girl will know when she goes." ”

Mei Ru could only barely press her mind.

When she arrived at Kunning Palace, Mei Ru found out that Emperor Yanchang was actually there!

Mei Ru became more and more curious, and she didn't know what medicine the emperor and queen were selling today.

Emperor Yanchang didn't speak, and the third prince in front of the emperor spoke with a sharp voice.

Kneeling there, without listening to a few words, Mei Ru understood everything. It turned out that this time Fu Zheng led his troops to break through the capital of Xiqiang and entered the imperial city of the other party...... Piecemeal together, somehow, now Xiqiang actually has a little princess doll less than ten years old! A few days ago, Fu Zheng returned to Beijing with a recital, and when he mentioned the matter of sending envoys, he wrote a few notes about it by the way.

Emperor Yanchang is the most face-heavy. In order to show the bearing of Wei Guo, he felt that he couldn't let all the old men in Honglu Temple pass, otherwise he would be called a bully of the little doll. Emperor Yanchang thought about it, and then thought of Meiru.

On this day, Emperor Yanchang summoned Mei Ru into the palace.

summoned her to the palace, firstly, to test Mei Ru's courage and eloquence, and secondly, to see if she was willing

Mei Ru understood it, but she didn't feel any embarrassment, after all, Mr. Pingyang also mentioned that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, and it is a good thing to be able to go out and see for a long time, but it is ...... Mei Ru felt that this matter was a little delicate, why did it happen to be her turn?

Moreover, this matter seems to be suitable for her in every way - the entire Great Wei Dynasty, I am afraid that Mei Ru and Mr. Pingyang are two women who know foreign languages, and the other party is a princess who is less than ten years old, so it is just right for Mei Ru to go - how do you look at this matter, how it seems to be planned for Mei Ru.

She quietly twisted her eyebrows and sighed strangely, but she didn't know how Emperor Yanchang would consider her.

I heard the third father-in-law continue: "I invite Miss Mei into the palace today, Your Majesty and the queen want to ask the girl to have a debate. ”

The so-called debate, in layman's terms, is to quarrel, quarrel, and find out the mistakes in the other party's words.

The old men in Honglu Temple have been immersed in this for decades, and they are all good at this, so Emperor Yanchang is embarrassed to let them go over to deal with a female doll.

Mei Ru still felt that this matter was a little subtle, this qiē was really too coincidental, and even her articulate was counted in it......

Now Mei Ru is inconvenient to think about it, so she only calmed down and asked: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, I don't know who the courtiers want to argue with?" ”

Emperor Yanchang laughed, raised his hand and said, "Follow yourself." ”

Arguing with herself is more and more testing, Mei Ru sank her heart, her face was up, and she said in a proper manner: "Please ask Your Majesty and Niangniang to ask questions." ”
