Chapter 274: Complaints
Coming out of Xiaoliuzhuang, Han Xin turned back on his horse, took a few glances at the quiet and peaceful village, and galloped wildly.
Qi Baobox chased after him and asked Han Xin, "Where are we going now?" ”
Han Xin flicked his whip on the horse: "Go back to the palace and mobilize all forces to find strange stones." ”
Qi Baobox smiled when he heard this: "What's the matter? Don't get angry at this time? ”
Han Xin turned his head and glanced at Xiaoliuzhuang from a distance: "King Anjun is a good prince, since he is a good prince, he can't separate the flesh and blood of the people under his rule, let alone let the mermaid flesh his own people, no matter who it is." ”
Qi Baobox pursed his lips, flicked his whip to follow Han Xin, and said loudly: "I don't have much to do now, I take the time to go to the mountains for a turn, maybe I can find a strange stone, I can find a piece, I can be less burdened, after all, let's do our best first and then listen to the destiny of heaven." ”
"I've never been left to fate." Han Xin squeezed the horsewhip tightly, looked into the distance with deep eyes, took a deep breath and spit it out, because the weather was cold, the breath turned into white mist and blurred his face a little: "My life is in my own hands, even if God wants to manipulate my fate, I will also have to toss with him." ”
"Okay." Qi Baobox laughed: "We only do our best, and we don't listen to the destiny of heaven." ”
This is a good thing to say, Han Xin is also happy, smiled at Qi Baobox, the two rode horses together, and it didn't take long to return to the palace.
When he returned home, Qi Baobox went to the house to pack up his things, and Han Xin went to the Yin'an Palace in front of him to ask the official of the palace chief Shi to send an order to find the strange stone.
But he said that Yun Yao came back from the palace, thinking that Han Xin was angry, something big must happen, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
She went home to greet Qi Gu first, looked at her two little treasures, went back to the room to change her clothes, and sat on the edge of the stove to think.
Xu was a little drunk because he had eaten a few glasses of wine in the Anjun Palace, and he was a little drunk when he was sitting in a hot house and being smoked by the heat, Yun Yao held his head, and fell asleep dizzily after a while.
When she woke up, the sky was already dark, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Qi Jing sitting in the room reading official documents, Yun Yao quickly got up: "Why don't you wake me up?" I slept so late. ”
Qi Jing raised his head and smiled: "Seeing that you are sleeping deeply, I can't bear to call you, it is past dinner at this time, I will ask Peony to heat the food on the stove for you, and you will eat some." ”
Yun Yao's head was still a little drowsy, and she didn't have much appetite, so she pinched her forehead and said, "You don't have to make any food, just take a bowl of porridge and drink it." ”
Peony turned the fire of the stove up, put a small pot on it, put some vegetable porridge in it, and made another stove prosperous, and distilled some side vegetable buns on it.
After a while, the steamed buns were hot, and the porridge was steaming.
Qi Jing went over to pick up two small buns for Yun Yao, and Peony took a bowl and brought the porridge to her.
Yun Yao took a celadon spoon and drank half a bowl of porridge, and after eating more than half a bun, she couldn't eat it, so she asked Peony to take the rest out and clean up the house again, Yun Yao asked Qi Jing: "What happened to the Anjun Palace?" Originally, we had a good flower-viewing banquet, but suddenly the next person reported that the king of Anjun lost his temper, and no one could persuade him, so we had to leave and come back early. ”
As soon as she asked, Qi Jing's face was full of strangeness, and he shook his head and sighed, and his face was also gloomy.
This is strange, Yun Yao became more and more concerned.
She asked again and again, and Qi Jing had no choice but to tell her: "King Anjun did lose his temper today, firstly, because the people did not have a good life after Yanzhou was ceded out, secondly, those barbarians in Northern Liang took the grave of General Xie Lao, and thirdly, the court ordered Suzhou to enter ten strange stones, if not, he wanted gold and silver treasures, beauties, and thousands of horses......
Multiply......
Rao is Yun Yao is indifferent personality, and she was also shocked when she heard this: "No wonder." ”
When these things are gathered in one place, it is no wonder that King Anjun is so angry, and whoever puts it on him, I am afraid that he will be angry and get sick.
Qi Jing smiled bitterly: "No, King Anjun was angry and had no good way, so he had to assign a task with us and ask everyone to find strange stones together." ”
He let out a long sigh: "It's difficult, if Jiangnan, Huguang and other places want to find strange stones, it is easier, but this Suzhou is extremely difficult." ”
Yun Yao also felt that it was obviously embarrassing for the court to ask for any strange stones at this juncture, not to mention that almost everyone knew that there were any strange stones in Suzhou, that is, it was freezing on this day and asked people to go up the mountain and down the river to find them, which was obviously a waste of manpower and material resources.
She shook her head: "This is also impossible, now I have to go out and find it." ”
The two of them sat down for a while, seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Qi Jing took some official documents and approved them in time, Yun Yao guarded him and did some needlework, and when the second watch passed, the two of them washed up and went to bed to rest.
The next morning, Yun Yao went to ask Qi Gu's goodbye, and played with Qi Gu's mother and the child, Qi Gu's asked Yun Yao what Qi Jing was doing without even eating breakfast in a hurry, Yun Yao didn't want Qi Gu's heart to be blocked, so he only said that there was something in the yamen, and he didn't elaborate.
Qi Gu's ******** are now on their grandchildren, and they didn't ask much more carefully, so they were so vague,
In the following days, whether it was the people, officials or students in Suzhou, they all looked for strange stones ********, not only in Suzhou, but also asked people to go to Jinzhou to ask.
It's just that all the state capitals of Jinju also have to pay tribute to Qishi, although it is less than Suzhou, but in the end, a state capital also has to pay tribute of several pieces, and it is difficult to find it by yourself.
After looking for many days, Suzhou only found three strange stones, and there were seven tasks, but Suzhou was worried.
Qi Jing's sorrowful day by day did not eat well, his mouth was foaming, and his throat was red and swollen because of the fire, Yu Long was no worse than him, the most eye-catching was King Anjun, he couldn't sleep all night long, his eyes were red and swollen, his face had a lot of pimples, and his throat couldn't even speak, which made people feel very unbearable to see it.
Yun Yao felt very incomprehensible, no matter how many children Emperor Chengping had, Han Xin, the king of Anjun, was born to him like other princes, and he was his own son, how could he treat this child so harshly because he didn't like it?
Yun Yao is also the mother of two children now, and her two children also look different, according to her, her daughter is handsome, and her son is ugly, although she is also a little biased in her heart, but both children are also in pain, and she has no need to tolerate children because they are good.
Qi Jing is the same, in Qi Jing's opinion, his son is good-looking, his daughter is not good-looking, he feels very sorry for his daughter, so he is obviously partial to his daughter, but he also loves his son very much, but whenever he has time, he will also hold his son and tease, and sometimes, he will change his children's clothes and coax the children to sleep, and he is very conscientious to both children.
Therefore, Yun Yao couldn't tell what a person like Emperor Chengping thought in his heart, why did he really have to force the child to death for the sake of the child's growth?
Just for the sake of finding strange stones, Han Xin was worried like that, and Qi Baobox, a very smart and cheerful girl earlier, was also getting thinner and thinner.
Han Xin and Qi Baobox are both young couples, although they have also gone through some things, they are not very mature and stable to afford things, and it didn't take long for Qi Baobox to cry and go back to his parents' house.
The girl's eyes were swollen like peaches when she was crying, and she just didn't let go of Qi Gu's eyes, which made Qi Gu's eyes red.
Yun Yao hurried over when she heard the news that Qi Baobox was back, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Qi Baobox and Qi Gu's mother and daughter wiping tears from each other, and she was taken aback and quickly asked, "What's wrong?" Why did the two of them quarrel, look at what has become of this crying. ”
The line said, Yun Yao hurriedly asked the girl to fetch water to serve Qi Baobox and Qi Gu's face.
Qi Baobox looked at Yun Yao and was quite embarrassed, wiped his face with a handkerchief, and then snuggled up to Qi Gu's side and smiled at Yun Yao.
Yun Yao also smiled: "It's rare for the eighth sister to come back, why did she cry as soon as she went home." ”
Qi Baobox was even more embarrassed, and hugged Qi Gu's arm and twisted it twice before saying: "It's always bad in the palace, so I want to come back and relax." ”
Qi Gu patted Qi Bao's hand and smiled: "Since you are back, you will stay for a few days, and I will go back when I feel better." ”
Yun Yao nodded and followed Qi Gu's persuasion, where was Qi Baobox willing to listen: "I'll come back and see, I still have to go back in a while, our master can't eat and sleep these days, if I don't go back, he shouldn't even eat, where can I relax." ”
Yun Yao pursed her lips and smiled, pointed to Qi Baobox and said: "Look, this is a girl who is married, ******** only knows her own father, and she has forgotten her father, mother, brother and sister-in-law, your eyes are red when you can't eat or sleep, and your brother can't eat and sleep, and I don't see you worrying much." ”
Qi Baobox snorted: "Bah, I know that you are not good, now you are joking with me, if you don't care about your family, how can you know that my brother can't eat and sleep well." ”
"Ouch." Yun Yao was startled, gritted her teeth and said with a shy face: "Look, it's not the same when you get married, your mouth is neat, and your momentum is enough, what you said just now really scared me a lot, I see, where are you coming to your mother's house to relax, it's clear that you're going back to your mother's house to get angry with me." ”
When he said this, Qi Gu and Qi Baobox both laughed.
Qi Baobox said with a smile: "I know that you are not a good person, and you can always think of the arrangement of the Fa to arrange me." ”
Laughing for a while, Qi Baobox wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and sighed: "Speaking of which, our lord is also a miserable person, and there is no one who hurts him when he is so old, although he is a prince, but his life is not as good as that of ordinary people, and he has suffered more. ”
This was the first time that Qi Baobox said such resentful words in front of his mother's family, which made Yun Yao stunned for a while.
Qi Baobox said angrily: "Today, I want Qishi Ming'er to be beautiful, how many people who don't toss are ruined, I can't stop looking at today, he is such a person, such a way of being a king, why doesn't God accept him ......"
"Be careful." Yun Yao hurriedly went over and covered Qi Baobox's mouth: "My little ancestor, it's okay if you say it in our own house, don't talk about it when you go out, let people hear it, maybe something will happen." (To be continued.) )
