Three days before Qin Dao returned, Ruoshu received his letter, which was sent together with the accounts and letters sent daily, and was placed on the top of the wooden box, and the envelope read: My wife Ruoshu opened it personally, and her husband Qin Daochuan wrote it himself.

Ruoshu opened it, and wrote a few large sheets in it as freely as before the last mission to Xixia, and wrote all the things he encountered on his trip to Xixia.

"He's hurt?" Ruoshu saw him write on it that in order to save Tuvar, he was slashed, right in the chest, and almost died in Western Xia, because he always ignored him in his dreams, he was unwilling, so he came back to life.

Ruoshu smiled bitterly, this person is really, he is injured and has to put the responsibility on others.

Qin Daochuan later wrote that he was injured so seriously that he didn't even mention it in the official report, and he was ready to report it to the emperor in person and ask her to hide it for him.

The letter to his grandmother didn't mention it at all, and he asked her to hide it for him, Ruoshu thought to himself, since Xianya contradicted herself, now she has nothing to do and doesn't go to Xuanweitang at all.

Finally, he mentioned the marriage of the four of Qin Dong, saying that because of the Western Xia Mission, he was afraid that he would not have the energy to handle it, and Qin Dong and they would also be very busy, so they could only work hard and Ruoshu to handle it, and he could rest assured that she would do it.

Ruo Shu saw that the final payment was a month ago, thinking that it should have been written with the old lady's letter, but her was not delivered with the official newspaper, thinking that it was entrusted to the place where there was a store in Qingzhou, so it was so late, think about it and know why, Ruo Shu sighed secretly, put the letter aside, and was still busy with his own business.

She had already arranged the girls' new house, the dowry, the new wedding dress, and the outing ceremony, and the rest was about the same, and then she would be done as long as she had a lively day in the guard camp.

At this time, Steward Qin returned from the guard camp and came to report, Ruoshu heard him say: "Young lady, the tent has been set up, the place to salute is placed in the Chinese army's account, and the guys who need it have also been sent over, I personally counted them, and there is no less." The rest of the food, yesterday the old slave ran again, all alive waiting for us to slaughter? "People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and Steward Qin is a little excited.

Ruoshu said: "That's good, just wait for them to come back, finish the process, and hold the wedding." ”

Steward Qin said again: "Then the banquet in the front yard should also be placed in the guard camp?" ”

If Shu thought that the house could not leave people, at least some of these people could not go, so he said: "These will be handled by you, see which ones are related to the guard camp, go over there, if not, eat here is the same, anyway, it is lively, and when they return to the door, the house can be lively again when they return to the door." ”

Steward Qin listened and said, "It's been several years since the mansion has been so lively, everyone doesn't know how happy they are, the young lady is so considerate of us and others, I really don't know how to thank you." ”

Ruoshu said: "It shouldn't have been like this, but it backfired, and it had to be like this." ”

Steward Qin pretended not to understand and retreated.

On the day Qin Daochuan returned to Beijing, the old lady asked the east and west mansions, except for the people guarding the courtyard, to go out of the nest and go to the ten-mile long pavilion outside the city to greet them.

Ruoshu didn't know how heavy Qin Daochuan's injury was, and looking at the old lady's excited appearance, he still couldn't empathize.

Xian Ya and Zhong Zhan stood beside the old lady on the left and right, He Shiqing stood on the right with a cold face, behind her was the second lady of Xifu Xian who was held by the nurse, and on the left of the old lady was the prince and Wen of Dongfu.

Ruoshu stood far behind the old lady, and Zhonglan and the dragon and phoenix fetus were held by Ruoshu's side by the nurse.

A few years ago, when Qin Daochuan went on the expedition, Xifu was still three female dependents, but now it is only five or six years later, and there are so many little babies, which has attracted the attention of countless people.

Ruoshu wanted to put a cloak on the three people, but the weather was too hot today, so she could only bring a thin bamboo hat and wrap it around with a silk veil. The three of them refused to even use this, and in the end, Xia Lian and the others could only use an umbrella to cover it.

Xianya was also a little stuffy from the sun, and when she looked back, she saw that her mother and younger siblings were playing umbrellas and shaking fans, and from time to time there were people bringing tea and water, and she couldn't help but glance at her mother behind the veil, she was also her daughter, and she seemed to have forgotten.

Shizi and Wen looked at the few little babies in front of them, and felt extremely dazzling, feeling that the eyes of others looking at them were full of ridicule and contempt.

He Shiqing seemed to be standing here alone, waiting for her husband to return, the sunlight was getting stronger and stronger, and she didn't move half a step.

The old lady wiped the sweat from her face, her eyes fixed on the direction of the road and the pawns who came to report from time to time.

When Ruoshu and the others came, there were still ten miles of land, and now there are finally only two miles left.

The crowd began to be agitated, Ruoshu looked through the cracks in the people, on the official road in front of him, there were flags drifting, and slowly people and horses appeared, then camel caravans, then convoys, and many people on horses.

Lan Xuan and Xia Lian looked at the convoy with red faces, and they didn't know if they were shy or sunburned.

Zhonglan said excitedly: "Father is back!" Father is back ... The third sentence was swallowed back by Zhong Qi's glance back.

Ruoshu looked at Zhongzhan through the veil, turned his head, touched Zhonglan's hand, and asked him if he was hot? Thirsty or not? The nurse said she had just drunk it.

Ruoshu nodded, looked at the convoy in front of him, and felt that the heat on the grass was surging upwards and higher, and it was almost reaching his face, and if he stood here again, he was afraid that he would suffer from heat stroke.

Lan Zhi quietly handed her a piece of mint candy, and Ruoshu felt much better when she took it.

The gongs and drums sounded, the band on the high platform had already begun to play, and the right and left ministers respectively led a team of people to meet the mission, and Qin Daochuan got down to the horse and gave everyone an introduction.

After finishing his business, Qin Daochuan finally got free and came to see his grandmother, but this time it was different, Qin Dong and Qin Nan followed him separately, Qin Daochuan didn't kneel down, they supported him, the old lady realized it, and said, "Are you injured?" ”

Qin Daochuan returned: "Grandmother, your grandson is not filial, you are worried." ”

The old lady hurriedly asked, "Where is the injury?" What's going on now? ”

Qin Daochuan returned: "The external injury is no longer a big problem. ”

Seeing that he was still on business, the old lady said, "Then hurry up and make the delivery and go home to recuperate!" The same is true of leaving this kind of idle work to others. ”

Qin Daochuan replied yes.

When He Shiqing heard this, Qin Daochuan was actually injured, looking at Qin Dong and Qin Nan's nervous appearance, the injury must not be light, the hardness in his heart instantly melted, and he helped Qin Daochuan and asked: "Chuanlang, why don't you talk to us, do you want me to ask the imperial doctor to heal you?" ”

Qin Daochuan leaned over to Qin Nan's side without moving, and said, "It's out of the way, don't make a noise." ”

Shizi and Wen also greeted eagerly, Qin Daochuan could only cope with them one by one, his eyes turned to Ruoshu, seeing that she couldn't see her face clearly with a veil, Zhonglan smiled after looking at him, revealing a few small teeth, but the dragon and phoenix fetus did not look at him, and was watching the bustle of the band in the distance.

Qin Daochuan touched Zhong Zhan's head, looked at Xianya and smiled, and said, "Father is fine, you don't have to worry." ”

Then he said to the old lady: "Grandmother, my grandson is still going to meet the emperor, and now that the weather is hot, you should go back to the house first, and the grandson will go to Xuanwei Hall to ask for peace when he returns home." ”

The old lady nodded, and beckoned Mother Liu and Steward Qin to prepare to go home.

Ruoshu took a few steps back, gave way to the passage, and finally took Zhonglan and the dragon and phoenix fetus to prepare to leave, Qin Daochuan said, "Shu'er, I will go back to the house in the afternoon." ”

Ruoshu only glanced at him, then turned around and walked towards the carriage and horse, but Zhonglan stretched out his hand to want Qin Daochuan to hug him, Qin Dong hurriedly said: "Third prince, the general is injured and injured now, and he can't hug you yet." ”

Zhonglan seemed to understand whether he understood or not, looking at Qin Daochuan, Qin Daochuan took two steps, touched Zhonglan's face and said, "Lan'er will go back with her mother first, and my father will go to you after he is busy with official business." ”

The nurse was busy coaxing Zhonglan to be obedient, Zhonglan nodded when he heard it, and Qin Daochuan said: "Mother has gone away, go and chase it!" ”

Only then did Zhonglan think of his mother, and turned his head to ask the nurse to leave quickly.

The crowd in several cars looked at all this, with different thoughts, Ruoshu sat in the car, looking at their father and son, thinking to himself how these two fathers and sons were so similar, the same grinding.

Zheng Fuzi still stood on the slope from a distance, looking at Ruoshu and her children, but this time there were no tears, and said in his heart: "Jingshu, now that my daughter is also a mother, she is still the mother of five children, but unfortunately I am incompetent and let her be wronged in her husband's family, how can I help her?" ”

Someone around him spoke, "Dare to ask, but Master Zheng?" ”

Master Zheng followed the prestige and saw a young noble son, holding a folding fan in his hand, looking at him with a smile on his face. Zheng Fuzi asked: "In the next place, dare to ask your Excellency what to call it?" ”

The person who came said: "In the next Zhao Zhengzhi." ”

Zheng Fuzi felt that the name was a little familiar, but he didn't know this person, so he continued to ask: "Is it not a talent?" ”

One of the guards next to the visitor said, "The master of my family is the seventh prince of the current emperor. ”

When Master Zheng heard this, he was busy making a big salute.

The Seventh Prince hurriedly held his hands and said, "Don't do it, you can't ask for it to be a student of Lanxi Academy, how can Mr. give a salute to the student, Master must not, never do." ”

Master Zheng had no choice but to bow his hand, but this time the Seven Princes were subjected.

After seeing the ceremony, the Seventh Prince said, "The master also came to see the Western Xia Mission?" ”

Zheng Fuzi said: "Look at the people, look at the excitement. ”

The Seventh Prince laughed and said: "Daochuan is also a talent, in the dispute between my country and the Tartars, Western Xia has always remained neutral, and now he has taken the initiative to send a delegation to meet his father, which is really a great achievement." ”

Master Zheng touched his beard and said, "General Qin is indeed a rare general. ”

The Seventh Prince said: "In fact, he has long admired Mr. Teacher's talents, but he is limited to his identity and does not dare to come to visit, and often mentions Lanxi Academy and Master in front of me. ”

When Master Zheng heard this, he said indifferently: "I am a teacher, but whenever a student visits, Yu will be happy to treat him." ”

The Seventh Prince said: "This is very good, when he is done with this battle, I will go with him to visit Mr. in Lanxi Academy." ”

Master Zheng replied: "Just inform me in advance, and Yu will wait in the academy." ”
