Chapter 1101: Daughter
The cold winter wax moon is coming, which means that another year is about to pass.
Li Qingzhao stood on the bow of the boat wrapped in a cloak of red plums on a white background, looking at the river, he couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces he had with Zhou Shaoyu. At the beginning, I never thought that I would be able to live on the ruling side, after all, there was no soil for women to be officials in the Northern Song Dynasty.
"Madam, this place is still far away from Huarong, and it is windy outside, so why don't you go back to your room to rest, and the wind is cold." The spring cicada is also wrapped in an emerald green cloak. In fact, the wind on Dongting Lake is not strong at the moment, and the cooling is not cold, but I am afraid of what happens, so I can't help but remind.
"It's okay, pour the wine." Li Qingzhao shook his head, and went to Huarong to make an appointment with Xiao Jiwen. For high-level executives like them, the cold winter is the most idle time, and when they meet, there is more time to argue. As for safety, Huarong County is not far from the northwest river of Dongting Lake, and there is a sailor in the rear to ensure that it is also worry-free, and Yue Nuwei is also around.
The young lady is reluctant to go back, and the spring cicada is naturally helpless, and the wine pot in her arms is still warm, and it is good to drink a glass to drive away the cold. And his young lady is indeed a bit addicted to alcohol.
After a glass of warm wine, Li Qingzhao suddenly felt a little warmer in his body, turned his head to look at the spring cicada, and couldn't help but say: "Spring cicada, how many years have you been with me?" ”
Chun Cicada was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly: "Chun Cicada is not married, and I am willing to serve by Mrs. for a lifetime." ”
"Hahaha...... "Li Qingzhao is also very happy, and he thinks he wants to marry her out with this girl?
It's no wonder that people think so, after all, Li Qingzhao once expressed this intention. And the main reason is that maybe Li Qingzhao and them are still the same, but these people are different, take Chun Cicada as an example, the original girl has now become more and more stable, and she is already in her twenties in the blink of an eye, and she has become an old girl.
Shaking his head, Li Qingzhao just suddenly saw the spring cicada take off its immature and shy appearance and sighed. People don't want to, and she won't insist on reluctance.
His eyes turned back to the river again, thought for a while, and said: "The wind and waves on the lake are vast, autumn is twilight, and the red fragrance is scarce. The water and mountains are close to people, inexhaustible and infinitely good. The lotus seeds have become old lotus leaves, washed with dew, and apples and herbs. Sleeping sand gulls and herons do not look back, they seem to hate and return early. ”
This word is obviously not a scene, it is a cold winter now, but the word is a late autumn scene, the spring cicada has followed Li Qingzhao for a long time, and it has already grown up in all aspects, so it naturally knows how to appreciate and analyze, and I can't help but be a little puzzled when I hear it.
"Let's think I've done it." Li Qingzhao explained with a chuckle, handed the wine glass to the spring cicada, and motioned for him to come again.
Chun Cicada does not doubt that there is him, she knows how talented her wife is, although what she did in Tanzhou was rejected by the world's scholars, but the talent is high, but those scholars have to be regarded as the first talented woman in ancient times.
It's just that Li Qingzhao's mind is more complicated, and this poem is not bad for saying that she did it, but to a certain extent, it is not what she did.
Because of Zhou Shaoyu's relationship, she followed her to Daliang after keeping filial piety for her father Li Gefei. First, he did not marry Zhao Mingcheng, the son of Laoshi, and second, he did not continue to stay in the Great Song Dynasty, so naturally the first talented woman in history will naturally be gone. Li Qingzhao still saw this poem in the jade words that 'her' handed down.
It's a bit weird, and every time I think about it, it's like in a dream.
"However, the concubine is Zhou Lang's wife after all......" Li Qingzhao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, that is, his own Lang Jun's heart is too big, and there are a lot of women around him, and the time spent together is relatively small. Occasional grudges are inevitable, but you won't regret it.
"Why is Madame here?" A voice came from behind him.
Li Qingzhao turned his head and said with a smile: "It's Sister Shuozhen, I'm idle, come out and see the scenery." ”
In addition to Dong Xiaowan's mother Bai, Chen Shuozhen is naturally the oldest, but Bai is an elder, and Chen Shuozhen is a sister. In terms of age, it is not inappropriate for Li Qingzhao to evoke Sister Shuozhen, but Li Qingzhao is a wife, out of respect, Chen Shuozhen is not good at calling his sister directly, so he directly calls him his wife.
"Don't suffer from the cold, otherwise Zhou Lang should be distressed again." Chen Shuozhen said with concern.
"Just don't tell him." As he spoke, Li Qingzhao raised his wine glass. "Have a drink?"
"It's fine."
So the drinkers changed from one person to two, and after a while, several sisters also ran out to look for someone, but they drank together, and it became a wine banquet.
When the ship arrived in Huarong, the girls were already a little drunk, and they wanted to rest first before getting off the boat and entering the city, but Xiao Jiwen, who had already arrived in Huarong County, came to greet her in person, if she didn't show up, it would be too rude.
So Xiao Ji was stupid, looking at the slightly drunk girls, Xiao Ji sweated profusely, and said in her heart, Are you sure you are here to discuss business and not to go on an outing?
Li Qingzhao and his entourage carried out in-depth negotiations with Xiao Yaowen, and at the same time, Zhou Shaoyu also set off from Youzhou to recruit craftsmen in Silla. In the cold winter right now, there are not many ships, but it takes time to get there, and if you calculate carefully, it is about the same.
accompanied by Li Xiuning, a girl who is very tired of leading troops to fight, is very interested in naval warfare, for her, this is definitely an unfamiliar field, and she naturally wants to see more when she has the opportunity.
The first place to arrive is naturally Penglai, which is the residence of the Daliang sailors, but as Zhou Shaoyu guessed, the trade between Daliang and Silla is basically concentrated in the south, although Qingzhou is not without ships, but it is relatively not too few, and in the cold winter, people do not go to sea. In this way, it is necessary to go to Jinling and even Yangzhou.
If it was before, Zhou Shaoyu would never take Li Xiuning with him, what if he wanted to go to see Gao Yuyao? Right. But now that the private relationship between the two has basically been broken, there is naturally no need to risk going again, with Xiao Yuyao wiping her neck in the past, God knows if Gao Yuyao will also come to such a hand.
Although it is a person and two riders, the speed will not be too fast, and the horseback riding on a cold day is not too cold to panic? This is definitely a good reason, so that Zhou Shaoyu can do something interesting, that is, Li Xiuning is a little black-faced.
Like what......
At this moment, the two of them rode together, since Zhou Shaoyu was behind and Li Xiuning was in front, this was nothing, Zhou Shaoyu also specially changed into a big cloak and even wrapped Li Xiuning, so that she could show a small head, well, as far as Li Xiuning's petite body is concerned, no matter how you look at it, I want Zhou Shaoyu to bring a girl out. After the incident, Zhou Shaoyu still died......
"Xiao Xiuning, call uncle quickly, uncle is okay too......"
"Hey......"
What else can Li Xiuning do except sigh, there is no way to hold it.
"Old-fashioned." Zhou Shaoyu made a statement.
"Dead skin!" Li Xiuning opened his mouth to fight back.
"Three no girls!"
"Uncle Lewd!"
"Eh, yes, yes, this is also an uncle, good, call again."
"......" calls you a big-headed ghost and rewards you with a white eye!
Hey, that's cute!
……
"I was really blind." Li Xiuning covered her face, regretting it, she would not have followed if she had known.
"Then you have to thank me even more."
"Huh?"
"Since you found out that you were blind at the beginning, it means that your eyes have been cured now, and I have cured your eyes, shouldn't you thank me?"
The corners ......of his mouth twitched.
"Since it's to thank you for repaying your kindness, it's naturally the old rule, and it's okay to make a promise by yourself, the time limit is set for 10,000 years first."
Li Xiuning's body is crooked, so shameless! Decisively magnified the move: "You have the ability to talk to me like this in front of the beauty." ”
"Uh...... Ahaha...... It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Zhou Shaoyu was defeated in an instant, the two aunts and nephews were together, Zhou Shaoyu was not so embarrassed. happened to pass by a foothouse, Zhou Shaoyu stopped his horse and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, let's have a cup of hot water first, it's cold, my daughter is very cold." ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and put his palm on Li Xiuning's head and touched it twice.
Ay...... Li Xiuning's body collapsed, and his body blamed me? Honestly play tricks on me. But after thinking about it carefully, Liu Ru is also such a petite appearance, and I haven't seen Zhou Shaoyu do anything, maybe I haven't seen it?
After all, it's so unpleasant to be called a daughter, Li Xiuning gritted her teeth and decided to break the can.
Here, Zhou Shaoyu took the hot water, and asked the store to prepare some meat and cakes, and before the store could respond, he saw Li Xiuning's little head raised, and said coquettishly: "Daddy, I want you to feed me with your mouth like before......"
Smack...... But it was the kettle in the shopkeeper's hand that fell directly, looking at Zhou Shaoyu with a frightened face.
Zhou Shaoyu's eyes were also wide-eyed. Is this really my Xiuning girl? Is it really not an impostor? Can my Xiuning be so fierce? Wait, she really seems to be called Daddy?
Hey, I feel like it's a little exciting......
cough cough cough, no, you have to be serious, the three views must be correct, you can't think too much!
"Beasts and beasts...... looking at the horses that are far away, the shopkeepers are all heartbroken, and they say that there are such people in this world who are not as good as beasts!
Huh? Therefore, it is better to be a beast or a beast.
Li Xiuning was very proud, hum, let you bully me, I'm afraid! At that moment, Zhou Shaoyu's face turned white, and his expression was very embarrassed. Then, and then Li Xiuning regretted it, because she was tossed so badly at night......
After entering Jinling, it happened to be the New Year's Pass, and Zhou Shaoyu naturally had a place to live in Jinling, but it was the palace given by Gao Yuyao, and Zhou Shaoyu would run over to live if he was stupid. Naturally, he hid in the home of the intelligence officer under his command to rest.
There are two sets of intelligence systems in Jinling, one is the old department of Gao Xiujun's Gao family, because no one is in a high position, the information obtained is basically from the analysis of various rumors. And the other set was given by Gao Yanshen, and his outer room and illegitimate child were still raised by Zhou Shaoyu. Originally, there was some caution and distrust, but now that Gao Yanshen is dead, it is much more reassuring.
It is the end of the year, and there will be no ships going to sea in the near future, so it is completely possible to stay in Jinling for a few more days, and after thinking about it, it is Xiao Wan'e, who has been named a princess, to meet.
As the president of the Jinling branch of Shanhuai Pavilion, Xiao Wan'e has a great reputation in the Jinling women's circle. Before the kings intended to murder Gao Yuyao and rebel, Xiao Wan'e also rarely said justice for Gao Yuyao, so even if Gao Yuyao didn't like it, she had to be rewarded, no, the county lord became a princess.
Xiao Wan'e wanted to carry forward Jinling's Shanhuai Pavilion, but she was not liked by Gao Yuyao, and then she saw that she was seeking common ground while reserving differences, so she had a plan to negotiate with Gao Yuyao.
"Now the Queen Mother has supported me in the development of Shanhuai Pavilion in Jinling, but the condition is to provide convenience for it." Xiao Wan'e said. The so-called convenience is to use the special status of the members of the Shanhuai Pavilion to learn things that outsiders can't know, after all, they are all officials' daughters, and they can always hear some more rumors, women, there are a few who don't like to gossip. In addition, the Jinling Branch also published a collection of poems of the Jinling Branch of Shanhuai Pavilion, although the influence is not as good as Tanzhou, but it is not bad, and when Gao Yuyao needs it, he also needs to compile a few articles to build momentum for it.
"It's okay, you can just do it." Zhou Shaoyu has no opinion, just the new ideas on the top of the Shan Huai Pavilion, there will always be a few seeds that will blossom and bear fruit when they spread, and he doesn't care about anything else. And to be honest, because of Xiao Wan'e's special identity, Zhou Shaoyu really didn't dare to trust him too much, but he was going to rebel in the future, and Xiao Wan'e was also the princess of the Liang royal family.
"That's right, Gao...... Ahem, what's wrong with the Queen Mother lately? Zhou Shaoyu asked casually.
"Strange? Recently, it was not, but a while ago it was a little strange, I only heard that it was unwell and bedridden, and I did not receive outsiders for several months. ”
So Zhou Shaoyu was a little stunned, and couldn't help but think of the secret letter sent by Gao Yuyao when he was still in Tanzhou, saying that she was pregnant and gave birth......
"How is that possible?" Zhou Shaoyu shook his head and threw away this unrealistic idea. The heart said that it was Gao Yuyao who was holding back what means were true.
Besides, if Gao Yuyao is really pregnant and gives birth, it will be called a big head, so it's better not to think about giving yourself a headache.
"By the way, I heard from the people in the palace that the Queen Mother intends to choose a new wharf." Xiao Wan'e said again: "But with the power of the Queen Mother, I'm afraid there is any way to make money." ”
The tone is somewhat disdainful, and it is also the way of the Empress Dowager, which is definitely inconsistent with the mainstream concept. The reason why the ministers did not object was because the finances of Daliang were really not good now. Second, Gao Yuyao's authority is too big, and she doesn't dare to come out of nowhere. The Queen Mother, should you be joking?
Zhou Shaoyu is not surprised by this news, speaking of kilometers of people, Zhou Shaoyu also has eyeliner, that is, the team given by Gao Yanshen, when he was first crowned prince, he was also transferred to the palace as a female official. But now that he has been transferred back to the palace, it seems that Gao Yuyao values it, but unfortunately the palace is not so easy to contact, and Zhou Shaoyu has nothing to do for a while.
