In the next few days, Wang Xiao was very busy, arranged many things, and took time to go to Qin Xuance's wedding. In the end, after only half a day's work before leaving, he took Qin Xiao and the others to see Chunning......

After Mama Feng died, Chunning's housekeeper was replaced by a mama surnamed Lu in the palace.

Mama Lu has learned from the past, and she doesn't dare to embarrass Princess Chunning.

But this errand is really not good in her eyes.

As the princess's housekeeper, the main source of income should have been bribes when the concubine begged to see the princess. It's just that Wang Xiao didn't come to see Chunning much for a while.

The one who often comes is a man named Qin Xiaozhu, who doesn't ask for silver, but her fists are very powerful.

In addition to not accepting bribes, Mama Lu is often ridiculed among the housekeepers.

On this day, several housekeepers and mothers-in-law were getting together to push pai gow, and another mother-in-law showed off: "My princess's horse, I came three times this month, no, I stuffed three taels of silver yesterday......"

"Speaking of which, Princess Chunning and her newlywed colt Yan'er, why don't you always see him coming?"

Mama Lu responded: "Horse? My princess is now a marquis. Since His Majesty ascended the throne, this is the first concubine to be a prince. ”

"What's the spirit? You are the princess's mother-in-law, and the pony's power has something to do with you. ”

"That is, speaking of this Huaiyuan Marquis, he has raised a lot of women outside with his power. Tsk, the women outside are full of charms, why bother to come to these ten princes' mansions to find those wooden pimples? I don't think Sister Lu will want to make money from him in this life. ”

"Hey, I'm afraid that Sister Lu will never see that Hou Ye in her life. Still angry? ”

Mama Lu lost her old face, pushed the cards in her hand, and shouted: "Don't play!" A group of broken-mouthed mothers, chattering all day long, annoying or not? ”

"Yo? You're afraid you don't have the money to play with us, right? Want to pay if you lose? ”

While talking, a little Gong'e ran in, with a little blush on her face, and her eyes were shining, and she said, "Mama Lu, someone is looking for you." ”

"Is that girl surnamed Qin again?"

"No, it's Huaiyuanhou! He, he, he...... It's time to meet the princess. ”

Mama Lu was surprised, delighted and a little frightened, and hurriedly put down her sleeves to tidy up, planning to go out to greet her, but saw Gan Tang walking in again.

Gan Tang raised his head slightly, glanced at a few grandmothers in the house, handed a small burden to Mama Lu, and said, "I have already asked Huaiyuan Hou to go to see the princess, so Mama doesn't have to welcome her." He has heard that you have served you well, and this is your reward. ”

After the little girl finished speaking, she glanced at a few people in the room again, snorted imperceptibly, and walked out leisurely with raised eyebrows.

Mama Lu was stunned, opened the burden and looked at it, and was stunned there.

She clutched the two ingots of gold tightly, turned around, and shouted in a trembling voice, "Even you little horses dare to speak out and show their eyes? Do you know how much Huaiyuanhou loves my princess?! You know? ”

~~

Wang Xiao didn't know that after giving away two ingots of gold, he became the most beloved princess of the Chu Dynasty.

The reason why he is so generous today is nothing more than because Gan Tang is very dissatisfied with him, and when he saw him coming, he snorted at him with his small nostrils a few times, pouting and frowning, anyway, he was very unhappy.

There are a lot of things like gold now, so he took it to send Gantang away, and he followed Qin Xiaozhu all the way through the courtyard.

Chunning is practicing calligraphy in the hall.

She is still dressed in palace clothes, and her sleeves are tied with cloth belts to avoid ink, which makes her elegant and smart.

At this time, after writing a word, she heard someone coming, and when she turned her head and saw Wang Xiao beside Qin Xiaozhu, a shallow smile appeared on her face.

"How did you get here today?"

The tone is like a long-lost friend, but it is not rusty.

Wang smiled and said, "I'm going to leave for Liaobian tomorrow, and I'm here to say goodbye to you." ”

Chunning nodded, and there was some apology in her smile.

"Since you married me, you have been running around in all your ways, and I owe you everything. Liao is dangerous, you have to be careful. ”

She said, her eyes quite serious.

"What is owed and not owed." Wang Xiao handed out a paper bag and said with a smile: "I brought you some delicious food, walnut kernels, beef jerky and the like." ”

Chunning was slightly stunned, and muttered in a low voice: "It turns out that you clearly know that I am willing to eat ......"

- Was that teasing the lonely before?

Wang Xiao's eyes fell on the paper on which she practiced calligraphy, but saw that she was copying Yan Zhenqing's nephew manuscript in the Tang Dynasty.

The manuscript of the nephew is known as "the second book in the world", which is different from the elegance of Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Collection Preface", and it is quite sad and indignant. Because of the Anshi Rebellion, Yan Zhenqing's brother and nephew died for the country, so he cried and wrote this memorial text.

Chunning is just a young cardamom woman, and when she chooses such a calligraphy to copy, she can probably see her state of mind.

She was born in the royal family, and after all, she couldn't live carefree.

Wang Xiao thought about this, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, some feelings and some pity.

"The father and the son die, and the nest overturns. Heaven does not repent, who is poisonous. If you are crippled, how can you redeem your body. Woohoo lament......" He whispered a sentence, and then said to Chunning: "There are some things that you don't have to take too seriously. ”

Chunning smiled and said, "It's just a random post to practice calligraphy." You should not have come here today just to see me, but what do you have to explain? ”

Wang Xiao nodded and said, "After I leave, if there is an accident here, you still need to take action." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Qin Xiaozhu.

Qin Xiaozhu understood, stepped on his toes, and swept onto the roof like a swallow and began to look at the wind......

Surrounded by red walls and golden tiles, there is no sound.

A young couple in the courtyard whispered, and Qin Xiaozhu could occasionally hear some words.

"After King Qi returns to Beijing, there are some things you can let him learn to judge for himself. In short, with you, Song Xin can't turn over the flowers......"

"If you need silver, go and write a letter to the king's house......"

Qin Xiaozhu looked at this scene and suddenly felt a little envious.

She couldn't say whether she was envious of Wang Xiao or Chunning, but at this time, the three of them stayed together, and she felt more peaceful.

After a long while, Wang Xiao finally solemnly confessed: "In case the capital is in danger, my eldest brother will take you and my father to Tianjin and take a boat south to Shandong......"

"If I can't come back, you should be able to capture the Ryukyus, or you can go overseas......"

Chunning shook his head and responded, "You can come back, I know." ”

Wang Xiao smiled.

He beckoned Qin Xiaozhu down and asked her to stand with Chunning.

The two little girls were a little confused.

Wang Xiao looked at them, a little embarrassed, and said in a deep voice: "I'll leave tomorrow, if I think about it, let's talk to you directly." ”

Chun Ning and Qin Xiaozhu glanced at each other, and they were suddenly a little nervous.

Wang Xiao turned his back on his hand, feeling like a teaching director.

But his aura gradually weakened.

"Well, I know you...... Well, in short, it's normal for girls to like each other. I don't mind you guys too much...... You get the idea, right? ”

"Hmm...... It's really a normal thing, you see a small world, I've seen a lot of it. Cough...... Have a good chat for yourselves. Talk clearly, don't be shackled by the world. ”

pretended to finish saying this in a deep voice, but Wang laughed at himself and became embarrassed.

He didn't look at their expressions, he quickly turned and left, trying to put on a sanctimonious back.

It wasn't until he left the Ten Kings' Mansion that he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's embarrassing! What do I think......

Embarrassing yourself more than them! But, I'm curious about their reactions......

It's a pity that he has already run out, and Wang Xiao can't go back to peek at what the two little girls will do next, so he has no choice but to shake his head, get on the horse and leave......

~~

Everything that should be explained has been explained, and it is time to leave the capital.

The young man on the horse looked back at the huge pool, and his heart was full of thoughts.

~~

In the evening of that day, someone offered incense in front of Lu Zhengchu's tablet, and then sat next to the coffin and read it in pieces.

"Old fellow, you are dead, and the rest of the things have to be done for you by my king, which is really troublesome. Before I set off, I encountered problems in all aspects, including the imperial court, Liaozhen, Mongolia, Liaomin, Korea, silver grain, and combat power...... Who knows what's going on over there?

The first time I saw you, I knew that you weren't a good official. But what you're doing is really hard to do, and it's getting harder and harder the more you do it. I really don't know how you survived so old? In other words, if this Chu Dynasty can't help up, it will be smashed with a stick and reshaped, but the reshaping will still face these problems.

So, I'm a layman when I play politics, and it used to be easy to save the country on the keyboard, but I didn't know until here that a layman is a layman. It's just that you're an insider...... Anyway, I'm barely the one you led through the door. If you are reborn through time, remember to take care of me.

If I had to make up my mind about what you've done in this life, I'm sure I'd still say you've made a mess. What kind of bullshit mess is left? But then again, you're not without merit, and you're still a little accomplished. Although this era is different, I don't see it too clearly, I'm not very sure. But I judge—

You people should have extended the national fortunes of this Chu Dynasty for one to two more years. Right? ”

Lu Zhengchu's coffin was speechless.

Wang Xiao looked around, patted it lightly, and whispered with a somewhat ridiculous smile: "So, old fellow, if you go down, help me see if that person should die?" It's my only killer feature......"
