In the Taiping Princess's Mansion, Xue Chongyin routinely led the three younger brothers to greet him, but Xiangnu did not respond according to the custom, "Your Royal Highness explained, please ask the four Xiaolangjun to go to the side hall and have breakfast together"

Xue Chongyin frowned, and went to the side hall with Xiangnu, as expected, Princess Taiping and her new favorite Zhang Changzong were already seated.

"Please mother" Xue Chongyin bowed down to give a salute, raised his eyes and saw that Zhang Changzong did not avoid the table, and followed Princess Taiping to receive the salute with him, his eyes narrowed.

"Well, I'm fine, have you been to see my sister?" Princess Taiping did not notice anything wrong, and asked about her little daughter, who had not seen her for several days.

Xue Chongyin pursed his lips, "Two days ago, I said that I missed my sister, so I sent it to my aunt."

"Well, my son is getting more and more like an eldest brother" Princess Taiping was slightly embarrassed, and called Xue Chongjian to cover up.

Xue Chongjian is five years old, she loves to laugh, she is very cute, her eyes are dark and she looks around, "Mother, why doesn't Sister Xiangnu eat with us?" ”

"Sister Xiangnu is a subordinate who takes care of Chongjian's meal, and she will use it herself later" Princess Taiping pinched her young son's little face, smiling gently.

"Then how could he?" Xue Chongjian was stunned with his little hand and pointed directly at Zhang Changzong.

"He's not a subordinate, just like his cousin, he can dine with us" Princess Taiping pressed his little arm down and smiled apologetically at Zhang Changzong.

Xue Chongyin interjected coldly, "Mother, he is different from his cousin, he has seen his deed"

Zhang Changzong stood up uneasily, his expression was not embarrassed, when he was in the palace of the princess, Wen Changjie humiliated him a lot.

Princess Taiping glanced at her heroic eldest son, her face was expressionless, and she turned to the Wu Chongmin brothers who were standing quietly on the other side, "Chongmin and Chongxing, the two of you are also older, and you are entangled in horse affairs, and you intend to live in Beppu separately, do you two have any plans?" ”

"Back to my mother, we have discussed with my brother, go to see my eldest brother today, listen to his meaning, and then make a decision" Wu Chongmin bowed and replied, he will gradually be able to take charge of himself as a prisoner, have a career, and be able to support himself, and his heart is not flustered.

Princess Taiping raised her eyebrows slightly, "I didn't care, Da Lang is also back, this little thief can be seen to have forgotten, he is still the family order of my house, and he doesn't know how to show up, he really has no conscience."

She said to come back, not to come out, apparently knowing the truth.

"Mother Rongyu, my cousin has been busy assisting Ai Yuan in the funeral these days, and he has no time to separate" Xue Chongyin explained, in fact, he himself was confused, the captain of the fireworks army, Ai Wei, took care of Wu Chongmin, and this time he died on the battlefield again, and he had to be considered a favor in public and private, but he was not so concerned, he kept watch day and night, and even participated in the whole process of sending the burial.

When Princess Taiping heard this, she seemed to understand something, and sighed, "Da Lang is affectionate, you are a younger brother, just listen to his arrangement, and you must not be lazy."

This is a lesson, below Xue Chongyin, the four brothers listened solemnly, and when the breakfast was used up, they went out to Aili Mansion.

"Liulang, I have wronged you, I will arrange for someone to re-register for you" Princess Taiping dragged Zhang Changzong to her side and sat down, snuggling together, "If you are interested, I can arrange for you to go out"

Zhang Changzong hugged her softly, stroked her hair, his ten fingers were like jade, and his voice was like wine, "It is already a great blessing for Liulang to serve His Highness, I only know whether His Highness is comfortable, I don't know what grievances are, and I don't want to spend my mind elsewhere."

"You, you are used to sweet mouths" Princess Taiping smiled sweetly, thought about it in her mind, and gradually had an idea, patting Zhang Changzong's leg, "You have to endure for a few days, I will deal with it myself, so that you can get an official position that you don't have to leave the house and have an identity."

The mansion of the wealthy merchant Avery in the divine capital is a piece of vegetarian.

The guests who came and went to mourn and worship were endless, all sighing and shaking their heads.

Everything is fate, not at all, there is no living example in front of me, seeing that the only daughter who is suffering outside Ai Yuan has improved, entered the palace as a thousand cow guards, and did everything to be a captain, and the contacts are rich and noble, and they are about to ascend to heaven on the level, but they died on the battlefield.

Sighs come and go, and I can't help but envy.

His Majesty posthumously sealed General Yunlu, gave the phoenix crown and Xia Veil, and buried it with the county officiant, and the Quan Langjun of the Princess Yiyang Mansion personally took care of the funeral matters, and many officials in the court and the princess's mansion Xiaolangjun came to go through the motions, which can be described as extremely sad.

Ellie, the old boy, will be in business in the future, I'm afraid it will be a lot more convenient, but the only daughter is gone, so what's the use of more money?

"Big brother, what should we do with our brothers?" After the mourning hall, Wu Chongmin and the brothers knelt down to worship according to Quan Ce's arrangement, and asked very dependently.

Looking at their trusting eyes, Quan Ce's heart was sour, and he patted them on the shoulder, "On one side is the father, on the other side is the mother, why choose, everything is done according to etiquette, just follow your heart, don't be gracious, don't wronged yourself"

Wu Chongmin immediately suddenly nodded heavily.

Quan Ce looked at Quan Long beside him, and said, "Chongmin, I know that you have always been good at taking the test of work and things, my cousin is going to set off to build a city in Xiyu Stone Valley in the near future, are you willing to go with you to experience it?" ”

"I do" Wu Chongmin jumped up, scruples were where the mourning hall was, it was not good to laugh, but the excitement in his eyes could not be hidden.

Quan Ce nodded and agreed.

Waiting for Wu Chongmin and the brothers to walk away, Quan Long came over, hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Da Lang, there is a way to be intimate, although you are the princess's family order, I am afraid it is inappropriate to interfere too much in such sensitive matters."

Quan Ce smiled slightly, and hugged Quan Long's shoulder hard, but he couldn't explain it, he can ignore others, Chongmin and Chongxing brothers, it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, and he has to take care of it to the end.

"Quan Langjun, summoned in the palace" is difficult for Ellie's age, but he can run as fast as a rabbit.

Shangyang Palace, Guanfeng Palace, the golden phoenix robe of the Empress Wu is still bright, her cheeks are moist and white, and she seems to be a few years younger.

"The Ministers Greet Your Majesty"

"Get up, come closer, let me see you" Empress Wu was in a good mood and stretched out her hand to beckon him.

Quan Ce stepped forward and stopped when he took three steps in front of the table.

Empress Wu was just about to say something, but the little eunuch outside the door entered the door in a panic, his eyes were bruised, obviously he was hit hard, "Your Majesty, Liu Fengyu is outside the palace, I have something important to see"

Liu Fengyu is the strong man who was offered by the princess, and he was given a false position to serve the emperor.

"Something important?" Empress Wu repeated softly, her eyebrows suddenly sharpened, "Come on, drag this unruly slave out and behead him, Liu Chengbin has no way to serve, he is bold and reckless, he is disrespectful to break into the palace, and he will be detained and interrogated by the Qiu official yamen, and he will be dealt with according to the law."

Outside the door, Qianniu dragged the depressed little eunuch out, and a few roars begging for mercy sounded outside, and soon fell silent.

Quan Ce looked at his nose and nose and his heart, as if he had not heard of it.

Empress Wu mercilessly disposed of the person next to her pillow last night, and her tone returned to a gentle tone, "The Fireworks Army has suffered heavy losses, and Ivy has died in her duties, how to retrain?" ”

"The minister thinks that the skeleton of the fireworks army is still there, and in this actual battle, a lot has been gained, and only needs to supplement the soldiers and strictly conduct drills."

"Hmm," Empress Wu's eyes flashed, and she asked, "Do you know who can pawn this army?" ”

"Respectfully, please Your Majesty's Sacred Heart Alone" This actual battle also made Quan Ce see clearly, the fireworks army is effective in the battle array raid, but it is not enough to lock in the victory, especially the martial queen's fear, it is impossible to go on a scale, and then think about it, it is just unprovoked.

"Hehe" Empress Wu smiled and looked at him with interest, "You have made meritorious service again, I didn't reward you, do you have complaints?" ”

"Your Majesty's thoughtful intentions, the ministers are only grateful" Quan Ce's face was full of sincerity, and he did not mention the marquis of Quan Zhu, and the Empress Wu said that it was Enfeng, that is, Enfeng, and it had nothing to do with his own merits.

Empress Wu stood up and came to him, but he was a head shorter than him, even if he was hunched over, he was still a lot taller, "Da Lang is a martial artist, and he has returned from the battlefield, but he has something to gain, and he wants to show his strength?" I can do it for you."

"The minister is on the battlefield, seeing the northern country frozen, the pride of the battle array, and not through the music theory of musical instruments, can not remember, often regretted, if His Majesty allows, the minister is willing to seek a holiday, good students to learn art" Quan Ce took a slight step back, and the four eyes of the martial arts queen were like-minded, which can be described as sincere.

Empress Wu stepped up again, stroked his chin with her hand, and said softly, "You, after all, let your mother teach you to be a little cowardly."

It seems to be insufficient, but it seems to be in line with the heart.

Quan Ce rode out of the palace, and the Empress Wu gave him a horse, which was snow-white, with steady steps, and his name was Yu Xiaoyao.

This horse had been prepared for a long time.

Quan Ce showed a smile on his face, after many years of ups and downs, advancing and retreating, why worry about it.
