sent Zhu Zanyi away, and Yun Xi began to reply and fold. From the 10th day of the seventh month to the 20th day of the seventh month today, he has not gone to the harem to rest for ten consecutive days, and every day he consults with the ministers during the day and gives answers at night; Although Xi Yao accompanies him every night, he doesn't have the heart to do anything.

Today, he finally didn't have to discuss things all day, of course he wanted to finish all the recitals in the afternoon, and be able to go back to the harem to rest in the evening. Therefore, he replied very quickly, basically how the auxiliary officials and the people drafted, he dealt with it.

However, there are still some twists and turns, and Yunxi answers according to his own heart. "The students of the Lecture Martial Arts Hall petitioned, requesting to graduate from the Lecture Martial Arts Hall in advance and go to the battlefield to kill the enemy for the Ming Dynasty?"

Yun Xi thought about it, picked out this letter for the time being, and gave a few words to Wang Xi, and continued to answer other notes.

After a while, Wang Xi came back and said something in Yun Xi's ear. Yun Xi said: "Sure enough. He then took the copy and replied: The second-year students who petitioned, who were among the recruits of the Guard, were allowed to return to the Former Guardhouse and conquer Annam for their hereditary official positions.

As soon as he finished replying, he swept the fold again, and suddenly saw a familiar name and shouted: "Zheng Xuan is making trouble, he is not a student who is going to school in the martial arts hall!" He specially wrote a few sentences of punishment to Zheng Xuan before putting the fold aside.

Perhaps it was because of the delay in these notes that were not answered according to the content of the ticket, and Yun Xi was unable to complete all the folds before dinner. However, he thought that there should be nothing to do tomorrow, put down the pen, picked out a little urgency and asked Wang Xi to send it to the General Administration Department, and got up and went to the harem to rest.

When he walked to the gate of Kunning Palace, he happened to meet Xi Yao coming out of the palace. She said with some surprise: "Husband doesn't have to answer in the Qianqing Palace tonight?" ”

"Well, there's less to do today, so there's no need to." Yun Xi said.

"It's great. Min'er has complained for a few days, saying that although in the past, although there were half a month when she couldn't see her father at night, she hadn't been able to see her for ten consecutive days. Especially today, Min'er sprained her foot when she was in class in the girls' school, and when she came back, she cried to find her father, and the concubine was trying to tell her husband whether she wanted to take Min'er to Qianqing Palace. Xi Yao said.

"Min'er sprained her foot? Still crying? What is the situation, is it serious? Yun Xi immediately asked with concern.

"The concubine has seen it, it's not serious, it's just that in the past, as soon as she was injured, her husband immediately asked with concern, but this time she didn't even see her father's face, and she cried when she missed her father." Xi Yao said.

"Why don't you tell me! If she knew that Min'er sprained her foot and cried, her husband would definitely come from Qianqing Palace to see her immediately. Yun Xi said.

"Husband, the concubine is worried about affecting the husband's handling of the government......"

Before Xi Yao finished speaking, Yun Xi interrupted: "The government can be dealt with at any time, but if the care of the child after the injury is missing, it will not be made up later." ”

"If there is such a thing in the future, even if you feel that your husband is busy, you must send someone to Qianqing Palace to say it."

"Yes, husband." Xi Yao bowed and said.

At this time, Yun Xi noticed that there were other palace maids and eunuchs on the side, and what she said just now was probably affecting Xi Yao's prestige in front of them, and immediately added: "The husband also knows that you are worried about delaying the government, and besides, there is your mother to take care of it in the palace; But the husband is also very fond of Min'er, even if he postpones the government for the time being, it is not a big deal. ”

He also said to the palace maid and eunuch on the side: "The queen is so busy these days, you are still so slack with the queen!" ”

These people immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the slave will not dare anymore." "There was a young eunuch who seemed to want to defend himself, but was immediately stopped by the older eunuch.

"Husband, it's not that they are slacking off their concubines, but that the concubines themselves want to take a walk. For the sake of the concubines, the husband will not dispose of them this time. Xi Yao pleaded.

"Since the queen intercedes, I will bypass you this time, but next time you must not be so slack!" Yun Xi said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long." Several of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed again before they stood up.

Yun Xi then pulled Xi Yao into the hall and walked towards the palace where Min'er was.

The little eunuch who was dragged by the older eunuch just now whispered unconvinced: "It's obviously Your Majesty, why don't you let me defend it?" ”

"You look for death by yourself, and when you're the only one, don't bother us!" The older eunuch said.

"How did this become a search for death?" The little eunuch said.

"You, don't talk about anything else, if you dare to defend when the master reprimands you, just wait to kneel and die on the marble in front of Kunning Palace." The eunuch pointed to a place and said, "See? The color of that piece of marble is different from the one next to it. ”

"What's more, His Majesty's words just now were not said casually. You don't understand this when you tell you, but you'll know when you grow up in the palace in the future. ”

Although the little eunuch was still not convinced, he didn't dare to say anything more.

……

……

Yun Xi took Xi Yao's hand and walked into Min'er's room quickly, and saw Min'er sitting on the edge of the bed talking to her brothers and sisters. Yun Xi immediately let go of Xi Yao's hand and walked to Min'er to hug her, and said, "Min'er, father heard that your foot is sprained?" Which foot? Is there anything else going on now? ”

Min'er didn't answer his question right away, but also hugged Yunxi and said with a crying voice, "Dad." ”

"What's going on? Crying again? Yun Xi gently stroked her back and asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that my daughter misses her father. Daddy hasn't seen an allergic child for ten days, doesn't he like Min'er? Min'er said.

"How could this be! Min'er is Dad's heart, how can Dad not like you anymore. Yun Xi said softly. Yoon-hee comforted her for a while before she quieted down and stopped crying.

After that, Min'er wiped her tears and said, "It's a sprained left foot." But my mother said that it was not heavy, and it didn't hurt much after applying the medicine, but I couldn't go to outdoor classes these days. ”

"Then no. In order for you to rest at noon, didn't Dad arrange a room? They go to the outdoor class, and you go back to the house to rest. Yun Xi said as she gently moved her left leg to see the injury.

"But my daughter is the class leader, and she has something to do with the gentlemen in class."

"Isn't there a deputy squad leader? Dad remembers that the deputy squad leader is Chang Jijun? Let her do it. ”

"That's right, anyway, it's not that my daughter won't be able to go to outdoor classes in the future, it's just a few days, so let Jijun's sister do it."

"Min'er," Yun Xi, who felt relieved after seeing the injury, smiled: "Although Jijun is younger than you, her father is your uncle and grandfather, and she is your cousin, so it's okay if you call her by her name, it's not like calling her sister." Daddy told you before. ”

"Alas, is Jijun a generation older than me?" Min'er stuck out her tongue and said, "Forget." ”

"You, you must remember it in the future." Yun Xi said.

"Got it, Dad." Min'er smiled.

At this time, Yun Xi looked at Siqi, Wenyuan and other children on the side, and took them all in his arms and said: "Dad has been dealing with things in the Qianqing Palace these days, and he has no time to visit you, is it my father's." From tomorrow onwards, Daddy will be more relaxed and will come to see you every day. ”

"Hmm." Siqi and Wenqi hugged Yunxi's arm and agreed.

Wen Yuan also hugged his arm, but did not speak.

The only one who didn't fit well was Xianqin. Xianqin is not his daughter, although she has been in the palace for more than two years, her relationship is fine, but she has not reached the situation of her eldest brother like a father, which is quite embarrassing.

After hugging them for a while, Yun Xi let go of them and said with a smile: "Dad is a little hungry, are you hungry?" ”

"Hungry! Dad, I'm hungry too! Min'er said immediately.

"Then go to dinner." Yun Xi picked up Min'er and said.

"Hmmm! Let's eat! Min'er said again.

Yun Xi gently scraped her nose below, and said to Wen Yuan and the others, "Let's go, follow my father to dinner." ”

The dining table was also very lively, Min'er seemed to be going to burst out all the words accumulated these days on this day, Xiaokou kept talking, Siqi and Xianqin were also playing on the side, and even Wenyuan, who didn't talk much on weekdays, said a lot.

Until Min'er's own voice was dry and her voice was hoarse, Yun Xi said with a smile: "Even if you save for ten days, there is no need to say it today." Look, I'm out of trouble with my voice. ”

Min'er "hummed" and laughed, but did not speak again.

Yun Xi had free time and talked to Xi Yao.

"Today is July 20, and the township test is less than a month away. Can you be sure that this subject will be lifted? ”

"The day before yesterday, Wang Zhongshu gave him three questions of the Five Classics for him to answer, and after yesterday's correction, he said, Xi Yang's middle school move, that is, two percent of the certainty."

"Yang Zhongshu also read Xu Yang's papers, and said that if the questions he has done these days can be similar to those in the exam, he will probably be able to win." Xi Yao said.

"Haha, Yang Rong's answer is equivalent to saying that Yang Yang can't get in this subject." Yun Xi smiled.

"But that's nothing. Xu Yang is only seventeen this year, and it is normal for him to be able to lift talents. Qi Tai was the first in the Zhongzhili Township Examination that year, and he was already in his twenties; Yang Rong is a twenty-nine-year-old junior high school junior in the second year of Jianye, and everyone else is similar to him. ”

"Well, husband, this concubine can also understand, so she doesn't have any expectations for the subject of Xi Yang, and Qi Shangshu is the same. My father has already discussed it with Qi Shangshu, and now he will quietly prepare for the wedding without telling Xu Yang, and let them get married after the township test, whether they win or not. Xi Yao said.

"Well, it's best if you think so." Yun Xi said.

Xi Yao smiled, took a bite of food, and said, "Husband, there is something that the concubine wants to ask for her husband." ”

"What?"

"Husband, the day on which the East China Sea Division was dispatched to the guard in the Beibu Gulf area was the 25th, and the concubine's brother also set off on that day."

"On the fifteenth, because of the transfer of the sailor, the concubine was not able to see his brother, and he was about to go to the south to fight, and the concubine was worried that if there was a case, the concubine wanted to ask her husband for permission to summon him into the palace on the 22nd, and both the concubine and Xiyi wanted to see him again." Xi Yao said.

"This," Yun Xi hesitated. Of course, this is against the rules, but human favors should also be considered.

"In this way, on that day, in the name of me, some of the generals of the water division will be summoned into the palace, and I will tell them to retreat after a few words to them, and you and Xiyi will meet in the side hall of the Qianqing Palace."

"Xie Fujun grace." Xi Yao smiled.

"I've said it many times, you don't have to say a word of thanks." Yun Xi said.

"The concubine knows." Xi Yao agreed.

After saying this, Yun Xi said to Xi Yao again: "If Fujun has not decided on the examiner for the Tianfu Township Examination on the first day of the eighth month, you must remind me." "Yun Xi just remembered that this year was still the year of the township test because he thought of Xi Yang. He will always be busy with Annan in the future, and he is afraid that he will forget about it, so he will definitely remember the exam that his younger brother is going to take to remind him.

"Wang Xi, you too, remember to remind me." Yun Xi felt that it was not safe, and said to Wang Xi again.

"Well, the concubine must remind her husband when the time comes." Xi Yao said this, and then said: "Husband, the eighth day of the next month is the birthday of the emperor's grandfather, and the husband has to spare time to worship in the Taimiao in the morning." ”

"Yes, it's going to be Grandpa's birthday soon." Yun Xi sighed with emotion, and then said, "You remember to remind me again on the night of the sixth day." ”

"Yes, husband."

After saying this, Yun Xi thought that Xi Yao had nothing to say, so he turned his head and talked to Siqi about going to school. Ke Xiyao opened his mouth again and said: "Husband, there is one more thing, Yun Zhi came to me today and said, the concubine wants to ask her husband for an explanation, and if Yun Lan asks at that time, she can answer." ”

"Something to do with Yun Lan? Could it be that Ye Xiping, the husband I chose for her, is going to war? Yun Xi said.

"That's it. Husband, the concubine heard that Ye Xiping was a thousand households of Lu Shi. This Lu Shi is not safer than the Water Master, in case Ye Xiping and the concubine say something unpleasant, he will die in Annan, and Yun Lan will become a widow, and her reputation is not good. Xi Yao said.

"So what? What does it matter if you become a widow and not a real widow? Besides, even if she really became a widow, it didn't matter. The royal princess can't get married! Yun Xi said.

Now is not the middle and late Ming Dynasty in history, the future of the horse is still very good, now two of the five governors in the five military governors are horses, the military department Shangshu Mei Yin is a horse, and the chief soldier of Taiwan Town, Cao Che, is also a horse, except for the top nobles and high-ranking ministers, the rest of the people are eager to be a horse, and the princess of the royal family is not worried about not being able to get married.

Xi Yao saw that Yun Xi's thinking was not on the same channel as herself, so she could only say: "The concubine knows." "Go back and think about what to say about Yun Lan.

"By the way, didn't I ask you to send someone to Aunt Fuqing to say that she could choose someone else to marry? Why hasn't there been any movement yet? Yun Xi asked again.

"Husband, Aunt Fuqing already has a son, if she remarries rashly, I'm afraid her son won't be able to accept it." Xi Yao said.

She wasn't right. Zhang Kejun can't accept marrying someone else, so she can accept it if she has an affair with a servant in private? Go back and tell her that if you don't want to marry, don't have any more fornication with your subordinates. If I know about any more fornication with my subordinates, I will arrange for someone to marry her at will. Yun Xi said. The remarriage of a widow is more acceptable than fornication, and the royal reputation cannot be tarnished by her.

"If the concubine knows, she will tell Aunt Fuqing." Xi Yao said. But she secretly smiled bitterly in her heart: it was another difficult job.
