Think about the little woman at home, the man's cold face rarely shows a little tenderness, the little woman is still waiting for him at home, he wants to go back quickly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Shiling Pass is the most border checkpoint of Tangling, and the location of this battle is in Shiling Town, don't underestimate this town, but it is an important place in Tanglin, and it is necessary to protect this chassis from being conquered.

And the guard here has always been General Liu Jingshan, and the invasion of the Northern Underworld is also inexplicable, which has to make Dongfang Ye suspect that there are ghosts inside, maybe it is inextricably related to some people in the court, otherwise how can he know the news of the court so quickly.

It's just that the soldiers are tired after marching for twenty days in a row, and they are bound to rest for a day in the pass to recharge their energy in order to deal with the next war.

At the same time, in the capital, the triennial examination slowly kicked off, due to the war at the border pass, the time of the examination was postponed, knowing that Dongfang Ye led the troops to the expedition, so he had time to free up his hands to preside over the examination.

Although the war has brought some impact to everyone, the talented man who has studied hard for many years still hopes to open a scientific examination, otherwise he will have to wait for an unknown amount of time, but fortunately it was only postponed for two months.

For them, this means that they can study for two more months and have a little more certainty.

And this time there are also people in the Li family who participated in this examination, it is a ****** who is one year younger than Li Hui, and he didn't plan to let him participate in this examination, but Mr. said that this child does have a talent for reading, and there is no need to wait for another three years, and he can get the ranking and then slowly practice.

So in the past two days that Li Hui has been in the Li family, she can't be idle at all, and she is a worrying person, helping Li Yubin prepare things, by the way, there is another person, that is, Li Xiu's husband Zhao Haiyi.

Zhao Haiyi also participated in the exam this year, and he has been preparing for a long time, and he is just about to make this last fight, together with Li Yubin, the two of them are together all day long.

"Sister, it seems that my brother-in-law can do well in the exam this time, but your identity will be different at that time, and my brother-in-law's fame is much better than that of lifting people." Li Hui looked at Li Xiu with a smile.

Li Xiu is now seven months old, and she has grown up like a ball in her belly, and pregnancy is a good thing, but she is in a hurry with Zhao Haiyi's scientific expedition, and the Zhao family is also due to business matters, and it is impossible for the elders to accompany her throughout the process, and Li Xiu did not let her.

She can take care of herself, there is no need to separate her parents-in-law, and she is going to let them come over when she is about to give birth, no, she will be taken to her mother's house.

Fortunately, there are many Li family members, and while taking care of Li Xiu, they also took care of Zhao Haiyi, who was going to participate in the scientific examination, and in their hearts, Master Zhao and Mrs. Zhao were very grateful.

"Well, but it doesn't matter if you don't do well." Li Xiu has always been an optimistic character, to put it mildly, it is less tendons, but fortunately, he married a relatively simple family of the Zhao family, or he would have been eaten alive a long time ago.

"You have to have confidence in your brother-in-law, but I've heard that my brother-in-law has worked hard this year, especially for you and the child, it's a head cantilever cone thorn stock, you must get a good ranking, you can rest assured, when the time comes, your brother-in-law will be an official, you follow, how good!"

Although with her current identity, the Li family can live a good life and Li Xiu can live a carefree life, but in this era, no one can guarantee what will happen in the future, only she has a certain strength, and there are times when you rely on anyone to be untimely.

"Okay, okay, you know to make fun of me, but we're fine now, and it would be nice if we could pass the exam." Li Xiu's eyebrows were full of happiness.

"By the way, sister, how are you feeling now? Is the baby in your belly? Looking at Li Xiu's bulging belly, Li Hui's heart was shocked.

Li Xiu gently put his hands on his abdomen: "It's very good, but he will kick me a few times a day, and the little guy has strength." Speaking of this, the brilliance of motherhood in her body naturally radiates, where is her treasure, the crystallization of happiness with her lover.

"That's good, that's good, but you also have to pay attention, you still have to exercise, otherwise the child will be too big and not easy to give birth to, and ah, you have to eat more vegetables and fish, so that the child is smart." These are all lessons learned in modern times.

The ancients sometimes didn't think about it so much, and eating fish can promote the development of children's brains: "By the way, sister, you can read books and tell stories to him if you have nothing to do, education starts now, and it will help children become smarter." ”

Li Xiu said funny: "I live in my mother's house and eat well, my mother and aunt stew all kinds of soup for me every day, but what you said about reading to him is quite novel." ”

"Don't care if it's novel or not, it's useful anyway, you just believe me, you don't have anything to do anyway, just treat yourself to relieve your boredom." Li Hui's face is full of love for children and longing for little life.

"I know, I know, I know a lot, but when you give birth to one yourself, you will definitely be able to raise a very smart one."

When Li Hui heard this, she suddenly remembered that she didn't know where Dongfang Ye was, and she didn't know if the trip went well, so far, she hadn't received any letter from Dongfang Ye, and Li Xiu's words seemed to remind her of this fact.

Li Xiu looked at Li Hui's suddenly changed face: "Hui'er, I said the wrong thing, I'm sorry." ”

I regret it very much in my heart, is she stupid, the prince just set out on the expedition, and brought up this topic, didn't she deliberately make her sister uncomfortable?

"It's okay, it's okay, when the prime minister comes back, we'll have another child, besides, I'm not too old." Li Hui smiled, but there was always a trace of bitterness in her smile.

The next atmosphere was rather dull, but fortunately someone came to interrupt the scene: "Hui'er, Uncle has something to do with you, do you want to go out with me?" ”

"What's wrong? In such a hurry? Li Hui shook off her chaotic thoughts and quickly stood up.

"It's nothing, it's just to let you see how our house is progressing, you haven't been to see it these days, I have to let you see for yourself if we have made a mistake."

"Okay, then I'll change my clothes first and then go out with you."

In fact, Li Anxi's purpose in doing this is to let Li Hui forget the trouble of leaving Dongfang Night, this niece is obviously not in a good mood recently, maybe she has something to do, and she won't keep thinking about it, so it's best to take her over to oversee the work.

Li Hui also knew that her identity was inconvenient to go out, so she went back to the house and changed into men's clothes and went out with Li Anxi, in fact, there was a reason why she didn't go to see it for so long.

Because there is one person there who makes her feel very reassuring, that is Master Jin, who helped a few years ago, he is old and no longer cares about these things, and only cares about his life at home.

But I heard that Li Hui participated in the house this time, he must participate, Master Jin's favorite thing in his life is his profession, and Li Hui can surprise him every time.

So even when he was old, he still took the trouble to run out of the city, which made Li Hui very relieved.

However, this Master Jin is indeed not young, more than ten years older than Li Qingshan, and in this era, he is already a long-lived person.

The construction site went smoothly, after all, it was just a house of ordinary height, but the interior design was different, and the construction technology of this era was completely achievable, and many masons knew how to build it with experience.

In the huge land, many people are constantly busy, talking and laughing.

Li Anxi will come to see once a day, and then go back to take care of the family's business, and Master Jin also comes over once a day, but he is old and will not stay for too long.

It is rare that Li Hui met Master Jin as soon as he came: "Grandpa Jin, it's really troublesome for you, it's too hard!" "The old man has gray hair, but he is full of energy.

"Little girl, Grandpa Jin hasn't seen you for a long time, you are not bothering me, I am happy." Li Hui's identity has changed so much, and he still respects him, which makes the old man very happy, a lonely person, quite lonely, on this construction site, listening to the busy voice, it makes him feel a lot better.

"Grandpa Jin, come back with me in a while, and go to our house to sit down!" Li Hui asked for an invitation, after all, at the beginning, Master Jin helped the Li family a lot.

Although he has also gained a lot of benefits, but without Master Jin, the Li family may have to wait a long time to develop, relying on that little bit of accumulated funds, I don't know when to wait.

"That's great, I'm worried that I don't have a place to go, don't dislike me as an old man." Master Jin smiled with a wrinkled face.

"Why, we are all very welcome, grandpa may be so happy to see you."

While chatting, Li Hui checked the progress of this time, in order to speed up the speed, there were more people invited, but due to the complexity of the process, the progress was not very fast.

In order to make full use of the labor force, it is generally a flow construction, and strive for each process not to work and not waste time.

"Oh, I didn't expect to be old and old, and I can still see such a big project, I have lived all my life, and I never thought of coming to build a house and sell it." Master Jin sighed, that is, if someone needs to build a house, he will be asked to go over and command.

He had never thought of Li Hui's big spending, so with great curiosity, he must participate in the whole process.

After that, Master Jin and Li Hui returned to Li's house together, and naturally they were warmly welcomed, this is an old friend for many years, and it is not easy to meet old acquaintances in the capital.

Li Qingshan, Li Qingfeng and a few other old people talked to Master Jin about wine, if it weren't for their old age, their families didn't allow them to drink so much wine, they would definitely not get drunk and not return.

"Oh, brother, I just envy you, look at the full house of grandchildren here, look at it and be satisfied, unlike me, I'm alone, I really don't even have anyone to talk to, it's too lonely."

"But it's okay, there are a few of you, let's have to talk about it in the future, don't bother me." Master Jin was full of emotion, the older he gets, the more envious he is of his children and grandchildren.

Li Qingshan took a sip of wine: "No, you have to come often, it's not easy for old buddies to meet, come and come, drink another one." ”

Niu Shi can't stand it anymore, these old men, so old, I don't know if I can't drink too much, I said it more than once, this time she was angry: "Okay, okay, don't drink too much here, you have to pay attention to your age, I'll change it for you." ”

After speaking, he commanded the maid very neatly and replaced it with juice squeezed from fresh fruits. Resolutely do not let a few old men drink again.

Helpless, a few people can only use juice as wine, and continue to drink cup by cup, anyway, they are happy and healthy to drink juice.

Not to mention how the old people here entertained themselves, Li Hui lived in Li's house for a few days, thinking about the palace in her heart, and saying that she would leave everything.

Sure enough, after entering the palace, I found that the atmosphere this time was very different and inexplicably depressing.

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I was in a bad mood a few days ago, so I didn't come to see you."

"Hui'er, come and sit, look at what you said, I should say I'm sorry, the emperor sent the prince out, so I left you alone in the capital, I should go to see you, but it's not peaceful recently." The queen gently pulled Li Hui to sit down.

"But don't worry, the prince has a good way to lead the troops, there will be nothing wrong, yesterday I heard the emperor say that the letter sent by the prince said that the journey was smooth."

"I'm relieved, for so many years, there is no news at all, I'm restless." Li Hui's face was obviously much more relaxed, and the emperor and Dongfang Ye naturally had their unique communication channels.

"By the way, Hui'er, I heard that your brother and brother-in-law are taking the exam this year, how are you preparing?" Although Sun Qingxue is in the deep palace, it is not that she doesn't know any news.

"yes, the preparations are almost complete, and we are about to start." Li Huai was not surprised by Sun Qingxue's understanding, and this was not a secret thing.

"You also know that there are more things this year, and there is still a war ahead, and it is estimated that there will be more people promoted in this year's scientific examination." Sun Qingxue said with her own experience.

Scientific research in the turmoil is the most important part of talent selection, and it will definitely promote young people on a large scale.

As for the family of this younger sibling, Sun Qingxue has to admit that for such a long time, the Li family has never used Li Hui's identity to do things that are not in line with the law, and has never bullied others.

Even Dongfang Luo has praised the Li family's tutor more than once, although his status is low, he does not have that impetuous mentality, he is still very motivated, there are really not many such people.

Look at those old ministers again, which one has few high-flying and domineering people in his family, but it is not easy to deal with them because of their past merits, but they are also arrogant.

Taking advantage of this chaos, there will be another big blood exchange, before Dongfang Luo silently arranged people to infiltrate the court, this time it was a big blood exchange.

Especially in this war, it is obvious that the people of the two factions have wavered a lot against the imperial court, and the people below have formed a party for personal gain.

"Well, thank you, sister-in-law, but it's all a matter of ability, my younger brother is too young, even if he has good grades, he is embarrassed to take on a big responsibility, and he should exercise for a few more years."

Li Hui is telling the truth, if you want to be a good official, you must have a certain amount of experience, not just rely on those few books that you have read thoroughly, which are all on paper. (To be continued.) )
