The Dingbei Hou Mansion was built at the beginning of the establishment of the Min Dynasty, and Emperor Gaozu ordered the construction of a Hou Mansion of the same age as the Min Dynasty.

Jing Mu got out of the carriage and looked at this rather old Hou Mansion, which was quite unfamiliar for a while.

There was no joy in my heart to go home.

Obviously, whether he was in southern Xinjiang or northern Xinjiang, he was very much looking forward to going home.

Jing Mu stood there for a long time without moving.

Return to the imperial capital, return to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion, and return to the land where he once lived.

Is this really what he has been longing for in southern Xinjiang?

When the side door opened, a very lively girl ran out of it.

followed by Jinghui.

It's Jingfu.

Jing Mu looked at the sunny girl in front of him who was running towards him, and a three-point smile appeared on his face, making his whole person look very elegant and gentle.

"Second brother." Jing Fu stopped in front of Jing Mu and said very happily.

Remembering that he hadn't seen her yet, he probably didn't know her, so he added: "Second brother, I'm Jing Fu." ”

"I know." Jing Mu nodded, and saluted Jing Hui who came with him: "Brother Shizi." ”

Well, it is no longer possible to call Jinghui his eldest brother like before, just two days before Jing Mu arrived in the imperial capital, the Dingbei Hou Mansion asked for the prince.

The edict came down on the same day.

Today's Jinghui is already the prince of the Dingbei Houfu.

It would be unruly to call the eldest brother again.

"The second brother can still call me eldest brother like in Northern Xinjiang, no matter who I am, I will always be the eldest brother." Jinghui smiled.

"It's not in order." Jing Mu replied stereotypically.

Talking about the rules with his own family, and not the palace where etiquette is paramount, seems a little rusty.

Jing Fu looked at the scene a little cold, and naturally grabbed Jing Mu's arm, smiling with crooked eyebrows: "The second brother has worked hard all the way, big brother, let's let the second brother in." ”

Jing Mu covered his mouth and coughed a few times, and quietly withdrew his arm.

Along the way, he walked to the courtyard where he used to live, and there was no trace of the scenery along the way.

Pushing open the closed gate of the courtyard, the courtyard was overgrown with weeds and desolate, which was incompatible with the clean and prosperous scene outside.

It's like someone has forgotten about it.

"Because I didn't expect you to come so quickly, the courtyard hasn't been cleaned yet, and I ask the second brother to forgive me." Jinghui explained with some embarrassment.

"It's okay, it's all to be cleaned up." Jing Mu looked flat, and smiled a little tired at Jing Fu and Jing Hui: "I'm a little tired, so I won't leave my brother and sister behind." ”

"Then the second brother has a good rest, and my eldest brother and I will come to see you another day."

"Mother also misses you very much, the second brother might as well go and see it if he has time." Jinghui walked in front of him.

"Got it."

After they left, Jing Mu looked at the desolation of the courtyard, and although his face was not obvious, he felt very tired in his heart.

In fact, the attitude of the subordinate can also reflect the attitude of the master to a certain extent.

He had seen enough of the Jade family in Southern Xinjiang.

...... that is related to him and has nothing to do with him

First of all, he asked for the title of prince before he came, for fear that he would have the slightest idea about the position of the prince.

And then there's the yard right now.

Maybe here...... His arrival was not welcome.

"Let's clean up, let's clean up the ones we used tonight first, and as for the rest, I'll talk about it slowly in the future." Jing Mu looked calmly at the humanity he brought.

"Yes."

Most of the people he brought over this time were his henchmen, and as for the people of the Yu family, he had already eliminated most of them on the way.

Moreover, there is a long distance between the northern Xinjiang and the imperial capital, what accidents can't happen?

It was Yuwenxi who came over, knowing that there were fewer people in the Yu family around him, and he was helpless.

Even if another batch of Yu family members are sent, it will take a certain amount of time.

Because of his special status, it was absolutely impossible for the Yu family to send someone who was not a confidant to him.

In case it is rebelled by someone with a heart, the consequences may not be something that the Yu family can afford.

And if another batch is sent from southern Xinjiang, it will definitely take time.

The interval between them is his chance.

Jing Mu never thought that he would be so despicable that he would kill countless people for his chance to be alone.

In the city of southern Fujian, Cheng Ji was hugged by Cheng Yunmo as soon as he got off the carriage: "Daddy, you're finally back." ”

"I'm back, does Mo'er miss Daddy?" Cheng Ji rubbed Cheng Yunmo's head.

"Thought."

In order to show fairness, after touching Cheng Yunmo's head, Cheng Ji hugged Cheng Yiqing and said, "Yiqing has grown taller again." ”

"Good work." Cheng Ji left Cheng Yunmo and Cheng Yiqing, walked in front of Chu Cheng, and said with tenderness.

"It's not hard." Chu Cheng and Cheng Ji walked slowly side by side: "Are the casualties in this battle in Northern Xinjiang still serious? ”

"Where can there be no casualties in war? It's not serious, but for the family of the deceased, the war is as tragic as ever, the family is broken, and there is no return. Cheng Ji sighed and said.

"I heard that the people from Dingbei Hou Mansion went?"

"Go, go and deliver grain and grass." Cheng Ji thought for a while and said: "Speaking of which, I also met the second son of the Dingbei Hou Mansion who was sent to southern Xinjiang to be raised in northern Xinjiang. ”

"It's a seedling, if you cultivate it well, over time, it will become a big thing!"

"But Xie Yuan Jingmu of Northern Xinjiang."

"Madame knows, too."

"My husband is in Northern Xinjiang, and I still know a little bit about Northern Xinjiang." Chu Cheng said with a smile.

Cheng Yunmo deeply felt that she and Cheng Yiqing were not suitable to follow behind her mother and father at the moment, so she lowered her head and discussed with Cheng Yiqing in a low voice: "Yiqing, can my sister take you to play?" ”

Cheng Yiqing was a little confused, but when he heard Cheng Yunmo say that he was going to take him out to play, his eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously: "Okay." ”

After Cheng Yunmo said hello to the waiter, he left the team with Cheng Yiqing.

Southern Fujian, which is about to enter winter, is still very cold at this time. In addition, the weather today is not too good, the sky is gray, and it looks like it is going to rain.

The clammy and cold air is extremely uncomfortable.

As a result, there are many fewer pedestrians on the streets than usual.

"Yiqing, shall I take you to eat the pot?"

Rainy and cold days are the best time to eat pots. It can not only remove moisture and drive away cold, but also make people eat very happily.

When I arrived at a pot shop, considering that Cheng Yiqing was still young and couldn't be too spicy, I asked for a mandarin duck pot.

Half bright red spicy soup, half milky bone broth.

Cheng Yunmo poured the ordered side dishes and meat into the pot and sandwiched them, gave Cheng Yiqing the dishes in the bone broth, and sandwiched the dishes in the spicy soup to himself.

I was sweating profusely when I ate, and my lips were even spicy red, and I looked bright and dripping.

Cheng Yunmo lay on the chair without any image and said: "It's enjoyable! Looking at Cheng Yiqing, who was still sitting on the chair, he said, "Is it delicious?" ”

"It's delicious."

When Cheng Yunmo took Cheng Yiqing to the door of the store, he found that the sky was drizzling.

The vendors who set up stalls outside have closed their stalls at some point, and they have long disappeared without a trace.

Even if you want to buy an umbrella, you can't do it right now.

From time to time, some passers-by would come in to take shelter from the rain, and Cheng Yunmo took Cheng Yiqing to find a place in the lobby and sat down, and asked for a pot of fruit tea that quenched thirst and was popular with children.

poured a cup of tea with Cheng Yiqing, and said to him: "Let's also take shelter from the rain here, and then go when the rain stops." ”

"Okay." Cheng Yiqing hugged the teacup and nodded very obediently.

Cheng Yunmo touched Cheng Yiqing's head with great satisfaction: "It's really good." ”

Probably the people who took shelter from the rain were disrupted by their trips, and it was useless to be anxious, and the rain would not stop because of people's anxiety.

Passers-by who met because of this rain, gossip is a good way to pass the time.

"I heard that the head of the Cheng family is back today?"

"Yes, I saw it when I went out today. His wife and children came to meet him. ”

"The head of the Cheng family and his wife are still as loving as ever."

"Isn't it? The courage to take the orphan of a family is not something that everyone has. The man paused, and then said: "But this Cheng family really keeps its promise, I heard that there was originally a marriage contract between the head of the Cheng family and his wife." ”

"Really? And what's going on? ”

"A while ago, did you know the etiquette of Cheng Yunmo, the eldest lady of the Cheng family?"

"I know, there are a few prosperous times in southern Fujian recently, I heard that all the families in southern Fujian have gone, even the people of the royal family have gone."

"Then remember that the Cheng family has a coming-of-age ceremony, right?"

"Remember!"

The coming-of-age ceremony of the Cheng family is difficult for anyone who knows it to forget, after all, it is not an ordinary path.

Before the coming-of-age ceremony, you must do one thing that you think is the most important thing to prove adulthood.

This is something that you don't find anywhere else.

"I heard that the thing that the head of the Cheng family did before the coming-of-age ceremony was to find Chu Cheng, the orphan of the Chu family, who is now the wife of the head of the Cheng family."

"What love!"

"Isn't it? Isn't the wedding of the head of the Cheng family after the coming-of-age ceremony? ”

Cheng Yunmo listened silently, and the fan in his hand was almost uncontrollable. After they said this, Cheng Yunmo quietly put away the folding fan.

Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier outside, she glanced at Cheng Yiqing, who had already slept in shelter from the rain here, and I don't know if her father and her mother noticed that the two of them slipped out quietly and did not return to Cheng's house.

Cheng Yunmo supported his head with his hand, looked at the rain that had no intention of stopping, and closed his eyes to rest.

I don't know how long it took, I vaguely heard someone calling her, Cheng Yunmo opened her eyes and found Mu Yun standing in front of her: "Miss." ”

Cheng Yunmo woke up, looked at Mu Yun a little tiredly, and said, "Why are you here?" ”

"Come and give the eldest lady an umbrella, it's raining so heavily outside, if I don't come, how can the eldest lady go back?"

Cheng Yunmo looked at the dark sky outside, listened to the sound of rain in his ears, and did not wake up Cheng Yiqing who was asleep, but directly hugged him and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's go back." ”
