The sky was dark, Zhu Qiming came to Qingyuan Hall early, Lu Xi and Lu Xiyu stood up together, and their faces were full of joy.

"Congratulations, Your Highness." Lu Xi no longer cared about the dignity of the teacher, walked quickly to Zhu Qiming's side, and said with an undisguised smile: "Yesterday's battle, fortunately, there was no danger, and His Highness finally made a big deal. ”

"Mr. Domon's teachings." As soon as the words came out, Zhu Qiming immediately realized that this was too far-fetched, and Mr. didn't teach him martial arts? changed his words: "Thanks to Sister Lu for reminding me for her guidance." ”

Lu Xiyu pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and quietly turned around.

"Oh, the emperor has a reward, please pick a few from Sister Lu." After speaking, Zhu Qiming waved his hand outside the door.

A group of chamberlains walked in, holding all sorts of jewels in their hands. I didn't dare to use Jin Xiu, Jinqi and Lu Xiyu, so Zhu Qiming only ordered someone to bring jewelry, which was screened and picked out with a big head and good color.

Lu Xiyu glanced at it lightly, as if he was extremely distracted by jewelry, "I don't want it." ”

Zhu Qiming had already expected this scene, and at this time, he could only pull the emperor's banner, "The emperor has spoken, don't embarrass me." ”

Lu Xi is a pedantic person, and his politeness is always a headache, but he will never dare to disobey the holy will, "You can pick it, just mean it." ”

Lu Xiyu slowly walked to the waiter, browsed, reached out and took a small brocade box, opened it and saw that it was a bead, slightly smaller than an egg, smooth and delicate, and the color was shining. "This is small, so be it."

You're really picky! Zhu Qiming suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, alas, there is no way, the luck of people who don't know the goods is good! This is a tribute from the Ryukyu Kingdom, a pearl of the cangmin, and priceless! I wanted to catch Zhou when I was one year old, picked up a big pick, and picked a pillow, and was often laughed at by my mother afterwards, saying that I must have been an embroidered pillow when I grew up, and my mother didn't pick up this joke until I was six years old.

Zhu Qiming ordered the gang of servants to retreat, and when he turned his head to look at Lu Xi, Zhu Qiming felt sorry in his heart, he didn't accept the money, and there was no reason to give the reward, so he could only hope for the future.

"Sir, Xiao Wang is going to take a few days off and go back to the house to train the guards."

"Train the Guards?" Lu Xi turned his head to look at Zhu Qiming, with a surprised expression, "The palace guards only need to take care of the family and the courtyard, and they can be in charge of the honor guard, so why bother training." ”

Thinking about many things not to hide from his husband, Zhu Qiming said calmly: "The north is restless, Xiao Wang may lead the crowd to the battlefield in the future." ”

Over there, Lu Xiyu's eyes swept away, looking incredulous, and after a while, he lowered his head slightly.

Lu Xi was still puzzled, "The Ming Dynasty has millions of soldiers in the north, why should His Highness go into battle?" ”

"Those guards have to feed themselves, most of the time they are farming, and their combat strength is insufficient, besides, they are scattered in nearly a hundred border cities and guards, and the troops are weak in various places, and the Warat cavalry has gone through a hundred battles, and they are very fierce and erratic, which is not something that ordinary armies can deal with."

Lu Xi sighed, "After reading too many sage books, I am tired of hearing about the soldiers, and I want peace, I know that I am pedantic, and I have to let the Warat people listen to peace before I can count, right?" However, it is not advisable to raise troops if they can make peace, otherwise, it will be the common people who will suffer. ”

"Sir, there are Tartar thieves crossing the border and plundering every year, the Ming Dynasty has repeatedly tolerated it, and has not engaged in war for many years, and the Tartars have come and gone freely, Xiao Wang has personally experienced that kind of tragic scene, where the Tartar thieves and iron horses go, the border people are really like ants! It's time to teach the Tartars a lesson they dare not forget! ”

"Okay, in vain about the life and death of the border people, Yu Ren and righteousness are not in agreement, Your Highness can do your own thing, it just so happens that there are some redundant affairs on the part of the Ministry of Rites, I want to go and take care of it, Xi Yu, you go to the Ministry of Rites with your father."

"Oh, sir, Princess Changde wants to see Sister Xiyu, she is waiting in Qingning Palace."

After saying goodbye to Mr. Lu, Zhu Qiming led Lu Xiyu to Qingning Palace and went straight to the side garden on the side of the East Pavilion.

Princess Changde is strolling along the paths in the garden, browsing the hardy flowers and plants. Lu Xiyu was a little restrained, so she wanted to step forward and salute, but was stopped by Princess Changde.

"Don't make a big salute, how you get along with King Yue, get along with me, otherwise, if some people see it, they will blame me!"

Lu Xiyu glanced at Zhu Qiming, and turned to Princess Changde to pay a blessing ceremony.

Princess Changde held Lu Xiyu's hand, "King Yue praised you as a flower, saying that you are very talented." I don't read much, so I have to ask you for advice in the future, of course, there is no urgency in this matter, and I will talk about it when the weather is warmer. Oh, I'll give you a waist card, just look for me if you have something, if someone embarrasses you and bullies you, be sure to tell me, I will definitely stand up for you! ”

"The princess praises falsely, I just studied with my father's family for a few years, and I know a little poetry and books, so I'm afraid of being ugly in front of the princess." Lu Xiyu still seems to be restrained, and as soon as a person is restrained, his complexion and tone will be different.

"You don't have to be humble." When several chamberlains brought out many potted flowers in the shed and put them in the sun, Princess Changde smiled, "I heard that these are camellias, but the colors and styles are different, I have not been able to distinguish them, and I will be confused when I see them." ”

Lu Xiyu approached the flower pot for a closer look, and when he turned his head again, his face was much more relaxed, "This is a twist of red, this is Zhaodian red, this is Qianye red, Qianye white, this is Yang Fei tea." ”

"Yo, as soon as this person has talent to learn, his knowledge is different, if he changes me, how can he have this vision and memory?" Princess Changde chuckled a few times, pointed to a flower tree covered in ice and snow on the side of the road, and said, "This seems to be a camellia, right?" ”

Lu Xiyu nodded, "It's a camellia, a wild camellia, a camellia is cold-resistant, has a long flowering period, and blooms more and more." Mrs. Hua Rui of the Five Generations wrote a poem "Song of Camellia", "Camellia trees pick mountain passes, just like the red glow and colorful clouds." The humane Fangjiang flowers are like brocade, which is better than the flowers of Tianchi. 'It's the camellia. ”

"Madame Blossom? This name is so familiar, does she still have a poem "Poem about the Death of the Country"? I thought about it, oh, by the way, 'The flag was erected on the king's city, and the concubine learned about it in the deep palace?' 140,000 people were disarmed, and none of them were men! 'It's so well written, the monarchs and ministers of Hou Shu surrendered without a fight, and they became men in vain! After the destruction of Song Taizu, Shu won without a fight, and the victory was not martial. ”

Lu Xiyu said with a smile: "There are several flower stamen ladies in the five generations, and it is difficult to verify whether the two poems were written by the same person. ”

The laughter at the scene gradually rose, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious, Princess Changde turned her head to Zhu Qiming and said: "I met, even if I met, I will always cover her, don't worry, you go to training, he will go to the battlefield one day, be a real man!" ”

Are you afraid of kissing, so you will drag me to the battlefield? Why don't you wait for you to get married, and let the captain go to war? Hmph, I still can't bear my own man! Zhu Qiming secretly spit out the groan, nodding his head very reluctantly.

"Oh, what Lujia Village is going to deliver the decree of the ministers and ministers have set off, Gong Jin is the leader, this ice and snow, not seven or eight days, I'm afraid I won't be able to reach Lujia Village." Princess Changde said again.

Zhu Qiming's heart moved, and his thoughts suddenly returned to the north.

A few days later, the three floors outside Aunt Fang's house were surrounded by villagers and officials at all levels in Baoan Prefecture.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: Lu women in Lujia Village, Baoan Prefecture help the poor and orphans, virtuous and kind, benevolent and virtuous, and are specially named Mrs. 'Bangning', admirable."

"Thank Emperor Longen!" Aunt Fang paused, although she had been taught by Jin Ying and others for a long time, she was still stiff when she saluted.

"Madame, please." Kim Young said with a smile.

Aunt Fang got up and took the holy decree, the smile on her face was the same as before, but it was a little more smooth, "Thank you, my lord." ”

My lord? It's almost the same to call my father-in-law! Jin Ying was slightly embarrassed, but invisible, "Madam, you are the biggest here today, and no one dares to bear the title of your adult." ”

Aunt Fang seems to understand whether she understands or not, so she can only cover it up with a smile.

"Madam, the emperor has given you a mansion, and the construction will start here after the summer. Also, His Royal Highness the King of Yue asked the family to bring a message, His Royal Highness will buy another house for you in Beijing, you can enter Beijing to live at a convenient time, His Royal Highness also said that he will come to see you in some days. ”

"Okay, okay, it's been almost two years, I often remember him, and I go to Master Xun every three or five days and ask him to send someone to find Xiao ······ I don't know how much he has suffered and how much sin he has suffered outside······" Aunt Fang raised her sleeves and wiped away her tears.

I'm afraid I'll listen to a lot of nagging if I stay here any longer, so Jin Ying hurriedly resigned with a group of people.

The happy voices of the villagers sounded outside: "Lu Erniang is so blessed······"

Someone on the side shouted: "Go!" Is Lu Erniang's name also your name? Call Madame, Mrs. Bonning! ”

Judge Qu's voice sounded outside the house: "Madam, I have kowtowed to you, I hope you don't remember the villain." ”

Hearing the laughter outside, Aunt Fang didn't bother to pay attention to the dog official, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Thanks to the help of all the villagers over the years, tomorrow I will set up a banquet and invite all the men, women and children of the village to come, and the wine and food will be enough." ”

The people outside applauded again and again, because they were too excited, everyone refused to disperse, gathered there and spit and discussed, some said that they saw green smoke on the ancestral grave of Aunt Fang's family many years ago, and some people said that they saw purple gas on Aunt Fang's roof, and all of this, and so on, in short, it is to attribute Aunt Fang's glory to the ancestral shade, feng shui, fortune, etc., but forget Aunt Fang's personal good deeds.

The seven children of the whole family ran over one after another, and gathered around Aunt Fang silly.

"Brother Xiao Ming's family is really generous, and he has given so many things to our family, but I still think that mantis is the best." Qing'er said.

"No wonder he recognized Mai Miao as a leek!" The foal grew a head taller, with a hint of disdain on his face.

"Go! There is no high or low, from now on it will be called King Yue, and there will be a palace······ Under. ”

······

The Xun family held a banquet to entertain the guests and neighbors who came to congratulate, the female guests in the room, the male guests in the courtyard, and the inside and outside were full of people.

Xun Liang toasted around with a spring breeze on his face, and he was already slightly drunk.

Over there, Hua Qianzhi and Shi Duo were obviously drunk, and Hua Qianzhi's tongue was like a knot, "How about it, brother, or I have vision!" It's me who makes Childe ······ No, it's King Yue, it's me who made King Yue accept it, and he will still be a member of the Xun family in the future! ”

As soon as the door curtain flickered, I saw Xun Xin coming to the table, "What did he promise?" ”

"He ······" Hua Qianzhi only said one word, his eyelids closed, and the person lay on the table; Stotor smiled straight and swayed back in his chair.
