Chapter 2 The Happy Life of a Family Man
The carriage went straight into Chang'an City, crossed the Zhuque Street with a smooth cement road, and turned into the Fang Street of Xinghuafang, Qin Yuyan, who was crowded in a carriage with Zhao Chen and a few others, got off the carriage, got into the carriage of the Qin Mansion, and went back to the Qin Mansion.
"Why do you want to treat Yuyan like that, I just came back, I can't stop for a while?" Watching Qin Yuyan's carriage disappear from sight, Zhao Chen turned around, rubbed his arm that had been 'retaliated' by Qin Yuyan, frowned and looked at Xiangcheng and said.
This woman did it on purpose, and when he was on the bridge, he had actually seen that Xiangcheng was showing something to Qin Yuyan intentionally or unintentionally.
Therefore, he was a little puzzled, when he left, the two looked like sisters, how could it be that in just over a month, the two of them have become like this, it is like a secret war, which makes him very uncomfortable in the middle.
"Not happy!" Xiangcheng sat in the carriage, and waited until Zhao Chen also got back into the carriage, then leaned his head on Zhao Chen's arms, and muttered: "Anyway, it's only a few days, and after a few days, the concubine can't bully Yuyan even if she wants to!" ”
"What?" When Zhao Chen heard Xiangcheng's brainless words, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and looked down at Xiangcheng in his arms with a confused expression and asked.
"Husband, you are in casual clothes!" Xiangcheng leaned on Zhao Chen's arms, and when he heard Zhao Chen's words, he muttered without raising his head: "In a few days, wait for Yuyan to pass through the door, and then the husband will not be able to hold it in his mouth and hold it in his hand!" ”
All right!
When Zhao Chen heard Xiangcheng's words, he immediately reacted, why did Xiangcheng suddenly treat Qin Yuyan like this!
Dare to love is to take advantage of this time, when Qin Yuyan has not officially become the hostess of the Hou Mansion. Show it off more, so as not to wait for Qin Yuyan to pass the door. The advantage is gone.
Thinking about this little bit of caution in Xiangcheng's heart, Zhao Chen suddenly became a little speechless. There was still some unhappiness, but all of them disappeared at once.
The carriage stopped in front of the princess's mansion, Zhao Chen got down from the carriage, and saw Xiangcheng enter the princess's mansion in a carriage, and then stepped on the war horse and headed towards the Hou mansion.
The people in the Hou Mansion, including Zhang Lu, Mai and others, did not go to Baqiao to greet him, at this time. They all stayed in the Hou Mansion, waiting for him, the master of the Hou Mansion, to come back from outside.
When Zhao Chen rode on a war horse and came to the gate of the Hou Mansion majestically, sure enough, he saw the wooden mound that had been waiting at the gate of the Hou Mansion for a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted happily from the mansion.
Immediately, he went to Zhao Chen's side. I ran over with an excited face!
In the Hou Mansion, Zhang Lu and the others, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately swarmed as soon as they heard the shouts from Muqiu. Come out of the Hou Mansion.
One by one, when they looked at Zhao Chen, who was dressed in armor and riding on a war horse, the look on his face. It was as if he had just eaten three catties of honey, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy.
"Master Hou came back victorious. Zhang Lu is here to congratulate Hou Ye on his triumph! Zhang Lu shook his head with a happy expression. came over and personally helped Zhao Chen get off the warhorse, and said a lot of congratulatory words in his mouth.
"Congratulations on the triumphant return of Lord Hou!" When Zhang Lu's words fell, a large number of people who had just poured out of the Hou Mansion also followed Zhang Lu at this time, bending down to salute Zhao Chen, who had dismounted.
"During this time, everything is okay in the house?" Zhao Chen accepted everyone's salute with a big stab, and then handed the reins of the horse to the wooden mound on the side, and asked Zhang Lu while walking towards the mansion.
"Hou Ye, don't worry!" Zhang Lu followed closely behind Zhao Chen, with a happy look, and after hearing Zhao Chen's words, he hurriedly replied: "When the Hou Ye is not here during this time, there are princesses in the house who have asked, and there is nothing to do!" ”
When these words fell, Zhang Lu suddenly walked a few steps in front of Zhao Chen, and then instructed several subordinates to let Zhao Chen stand at the gate of the mansion with the things that had been prepared to ward off evil spirits.
Facing Zhao Chen, he sprayed the water soaked in cypress leaves, and took incense to roast Zhao Chen's whole body, and there were words in his mouth, to the effect that the bad luck on the battlefield was dispersed outside.
Born in this era, anyone who returns from the battlefield, such a process, basically everyone has to go through it, which is not only to get rid of bad luck, but also a special way for the family to welcome Zheng'er.
Zhao Chen was as good as a stream, stretched out his arms and stood at the door, letting Zhang Lu be there, chattering, dispelling the bad luck on his body for him!
"Unload the armor of Master Hou!" Finally completed the ritual of dispelling bad luck, Zhang Lu put down the things in his hand, and immediately took a step back and bowed respectfully to Zhao Chen.
Then, when he raised his head, he shouted at several women in the house who had clean hands and feet and were well-dressed.
The general triumphed, the woman took off her armor, and she really returned home!
It's just that the errand of removing the armor was originally completed by the hostess!
It's a pity that Qin Yuyan hasn't passed the door yet, Xiangcheng is a princess again, and because she is still pregnant, this errand of removing armor fell on several embroidery girls in the house.
"The slave family congratulates the Hou Ye on his triumph!" They are all familiar faces in the house, and when they heard Zhang Lu's words at this time, they all saluted Zhao Chen, and after Zhao Chen nodded, they stepped forward to remove Zhao Chen's armor.
The heavy armor was removed from the body, and even the battle robe underneath was taken off, and when the whole body was up, only a pair of close-fitting pants remained.
A few embroidery girls took a towel stained with cypress leaf water and wiped it for Zhao Chen, and then, when the wiping was finished, they took clean robes and put them all on for Zhao Chen.
At this time, it was a cold day in the moon, and Zhao Chen was standing outside, and only his underwear was stripped off, although there were many people around, but the taste was still unbearable.
"Master Hou, hurry back to the house!" When Zhao Chen finally changed his robe, Zhang Lu urged Zhao Chen to say: "The house has already burned very warm, Hou Ye will take a good bath when he enters the house!" ”
Hearing Zhang Lu say that he could go back to the house to take a hot bath, Zhao Chen suddenly couldn't wait to get up, it's been almost two months, he hasn't taken a good bath, and now he went back to Chang'an, he didn't want anything else, so he wanted to take a good bath.
"Take care of the old mansion too!" hurriedly explained to Zhang Lu, and also took care of the more than 100 guards who came back together, and then walked towards the back house.
Zhang Lu, who was behind him, nodded and agreed busily, in fact, such a thing did not need Zhao Chen's orders at all, Zhang Lu himself had already been at the old mansion before Zhao Chen came back, ready everything.
Probably because Zhao Chen wanted to come back, the entire Hou Mansion, inside and out, was ordered by Zhang Lu to be cleaned.
It's only been more than a month, and when Zhao Chen looked at everything in the Hou Mansion at the moment, he suddenly felt a sense of fulfillment in his heart, probably this is home!
When I came to the back house, I first came to the study, opened the dark grid of the study, put the mobile phone I brought with me to Mobei, put it in the dark compartment and hid it, and then I came to the bedroom with a relaxed body and prepared to take a comfortable bath.
This time, when he went to Mobei to participate in the Turkic War, he went for as much as a month, and he was seriously ill in the middle, which can be regarded as having endured all the hardships, so when he came back from Mobei, Zhao Chen did not plan to leave the house again.
Li Jing and the others will not be able to come back for a while, so Li Er is also looking at the affairs of the Great Court Meeting these days, and he can't spare time at all to lose his temper with him.
This time, when Zhao Chen was in Mobei, he simply gave Li Er an army, although Li Er changed his mind later, but after all, this matter was to talk to Zhao Chen in person.
It's a pity, compared to this matter, it is obvious that this New Year party is much more important!
Because, all the tribes of the grassland are here, this is a matter that belongs to the entire Tang Dynasty, and it is naturally much more important than Zhao's 'general'.
Li Er didn't have time, and it just so happened that Zhao Chen was also happy, staying in the house during this time and enjoying the happy life of a family man.
Every day, I live like a pig, I eat, eat and sleep when I am hungry, lie in the bathtub of the warm room, drink wine, slowly breathe smoke rings, and enjoy the massage of Xiangcheng behind my back.
When he is happy, he will pull Xiangcheng into the bathtub domineeringly, and the two of them will lie in the bathtub in the blue sky and daylight, like a child who has not grown up, frolicking endlessly.
Of course, the only fly in the ointment is that Zhao Chen can only guard the food in his mouth, he can only look at it, but he can't touch it, which is simply a torture for Zhao Chen, who has already tasted the food man. (To be continued.) )
