Chapter 172

"I'm not joking with you, it's Qiyu who is gone, and he was killed by Prince Fanbang."

Yao Guifei squatted on the ground in a dejected manner, as if she had lost her soul, which made people feel distressed.

"Concubine, if you want to cry, cry, don't bear it, that kid Qiyu, we didn't teach it well, and we took a detour and hurt ourselves."

After a long time, Yao Guifei broke out into a bitter cry, and then it was like a flood opening the floodgates, she couldn't bear it anymore, and lay on the ground and cried, "Qiyu, my Qiyu-"

Yao Guifei was so sad because of the death of the fourth princess that she fainted on the spot and was in a coma for a whole day. The emperor was touched by it, remembered the first queen, and was very sad, and even stopped the morning court the next day.

But obviously, the courtiers and the people don't have much feeling for a fourth princess, but the news of the victory on the front line makes everyone excited, because the news of the Nine Emperors' disappearance before is well hidden, so no one knows, everyone thinks that the Nine Emperors have made great achievements, and his prestige in the hearts of the people has been increasing day by day these days, and some people even set up an immortal tablet for him, all looking forward to their triumphant return,

Xie Ruqing received Qi Yanzhi's private message the day after the emperor received the news, which changed the previous style of painting whitewashing Taiping, and told her the news that Yuning was missing and rescued by Wang Chong, as well as the news of the defeat of the Fanbang soldiers, and also explained why she couldn't tell the truth before, in short, the words were sincere, so that people couldn't get angry.

He also said that he should be able to return to Beijing in another month, and said a lot of longing words.

Xie Ruqing held the letter and read it repeatedly for a long time, she was angry, distressed and happy, she was indeed very dissatisfied with Qi Yanzhi a few days ago, who told him not to tell her the truth, but now that she saw the letter, the anger in her heart was gone, she only hoped that he could return safely, because she also missed him very much.

"Girl, girl?" Ruhuan laughed at her on the side, "You can lose your soul when you read a letter, I have called you more than a dozen times!" ”

"Huh?" As soon as Xie Ruqing came back to her senses, she smiled a little embarrassedly, "I, I didn't hear it." ”

Ruhuan laughed, "Then how can you hear it, you are now full of uncles, alas, it's okay, it's okay, anyway, we're used to it." ”

"You dead girl, you know to make fun of me!" Xie Ruqing chased after her and beat her, she was really happy today, and as soon as her mood relaxed, she made a fuss.

Yu Yan came in from outside, watched the two of them make trouble, and laughed, "What are you two doing, having such a good time?" ”

"Miss Yuyan is here, our girl is angry and wants to kill my mouth!" Yu Yan said while avoiding Xie Ruqing, "Save me, Miss Yu Yan, our girl is going to kill me!" ”

Yu Yan has been staying in the Hou Mansion, firstly, she is in a bad mood and doesn't want to go home, and secondly, she also wants to accompany Xie Ruqing, afraid that she will encounter something bad alone, but because Fang Gongzi refused, she was really in a bad mood, she hadn't laughed for a long time, and she had to be teased by Xie Ruqing on weekdays to laugh.

Seeing that the two of them were smiling so happily now, they couldn't help but laugh too, and they were in a good mood with a smile, "Is it a letter from Master Hou, I heard that the Northern Xinjiang side won the battle, I'm afraid that Sister Ruqing is smiling so happily if she is not coming back?" ”

"You dead girl is here to make fun of me!" Xie Ruqing chased after Yu Yan together, and the three girls made a mess, so unhappy.

At this time, Qi Er came in from outside, and Ruhuan, who was laughing vigorously, accidentally bumped into his arms, he helped him and teased: "What are you doing, throw yourself into your arms." ”

Ruhuan's face immediately turned red, she just crashed into Qi Er's arms, this person's chest was so hard that her shoulder hurt, but somehow, she actually felt very relieved, and wanted to stay a little longer.

"You shameless, it's obvious that you hugged me with bad intentions!" Ruhuan turned his head and quarreled with Qi Er.

"Hey, madam, you are commenting, is there still a royal law here, who is unreasonable?" Qi Er is like a ghost.

Xie Ruqing and Yu Yan laughed, and the spearhead of the joke suddenly turned to Ruhuan.

"Madame, Miss Yu, what are you laughing at me?" Ruhuan stomped his feet angrily, "I ignore you!" ”

Xie Ruqing smiled: "You are so unreasonable, Ruhuan, how did you laugh at my forgetting?" ”

"Can that be the same!" Ruhuan was anxious, "You and Hou Ye are like that, I am like Qi Er, we are different!" ”

"What is it?" Xie Ruqing and Yu Yan laughed even harder.

Ruhuan was annoyed and ashamed, and his old face had no place to rest, but he was not good at attacking the girl, so he had to fight Qi Er, "It's all up to you, you are not serious!" ”

"Why am I not serious?" Qi Er shouted wronged, "Madam, you come to comment on the theory, am I not serious?" ”

Xie Ruqing said, "Ruhuan is duplicitous, what she thinks in her heart is actually, why didn't she let you hug it for a while." ”

Qi Er's face turned red all of a sudden, and Ruhuan's face turned even redder, "Miss, how can you be like this!" ”

Xie Ruqing and Yu Yan couldn't laugh anymore, these two people didn't know what they were doing after being teased, and when they wanted to say something to each other, they didn't come up like before, they had to blush first, as if they had suddenly learned to be reserved.

"By the way, madam, the princess sent someone to ask you to go back and stay for two days, saying that the family has just changed to a southern cook, and I want to come to meet your taste." Qi Er relayed.

Xie Ruqing sighed in his heart, and said in his heart that he still had to come, and he would have to go back when Qi Yanzhi came back. But after living outside for a long time, she didn't want to go back, so she dragged it out for nearly a month before returning to Qiyang Palace.

Qiyang Wangfu seems to have become the world of Qi and Huixin, the layout of the road has been changed from the gate, and the flowers and plants in the yard are not the original ones, the aesthetics of the prince are quite elegant, so they are down, I don't know why they feel particularly downgrade, the flowers are red and willow green are not like the palace, but like some improper places.

Xie Ruqing thought about it, the prince was probably too lazy to care, so he tossed by the two of them, and couldn't help but feel funny, even the princess had a headache, and the women who even had a headache were Qi and Huixin.

"It's my sister-in-law who is back." Huixin came out of the house with a big belly, she hadn't seen her for a few months, her face was a lot more plump, her face was a lot ruddy, and she looked like a little noblewoman, she smiled at Xie Ruqing, "Come into the house and drink tea to moisten your throat." ”

Xie Ruqing entered the house with a smile and saluted the princess first, "Auntie, you have been doing well lately." ”

The princess's complexion is not as good as before, she looks like she is older, she smiled and pulled Xie Ruqing to sit down, "I'm still the same, I don't sleep well occasionally, I'm used to it, thanks to Huixin to help me, I won't be very tired." ”

Look, in addition to the princess's soft ears, whoever can help her solve problems depends on whom, like Fang Hui in the past won the princess's favor in this way. This wisdom is less shrewd than Fang Hui, and more sincere and virtuous, which can be more liked by the princess.

"Mother, what do you say, isn't this what I should do?" Huixin sat down with her stomach and helped the princess pinch her shoulders, "You have worked hard all your life, and it is not easy to manage the family business, otherwise how can you fall into the problem of insomnia, now is the age of happiness, if I am not physically inconvenient, I can no longer ask you to work for half a point." ”

The princess was overjoyed, holding Huixin's hand and boasting, "It's a sensible child, you say it's not Ruqing, but it's much more distressing than the child who is far away." ”

Xie Ruqing had no choice but to echo and nodded, your own daughter-in-law can be seen well.

The princess has such a temperament, others can't do it, so it's not easy for others to mix in their own family's affairs, as long as it doesn't affect herself, Xie Ruqing won't talk much, and she won't be thankless.

Qi's didn't come today, but his two little babies came, and Hui Xin treated them very patiently, coaxing the two little babies without any impatience, and the two little babies loved to stick to her. The princess was very happy, she didn't hate children herself, but she didn't like to make trouble, but he didn't have the heart to coax herself, as long as others helped her not to make trouble, she was rare.

Huixin can be said to be very good at grasping the princess's thoughts, and she coaxed her just right in all aspects, no wonder it was only more than two months, and the princess treated her as her own daughter.

"My aunt is blessed to have married a good daughter-in-law." Xie Ruqing picked a good word to say.

The princess really smiled.

Huixin smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, aren't you talking about yourself?" ”

Xie Ruqing laughed, "It's really good at pleasing people." ”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law laughed for a while, and soon it was dinner time, Qi Zhiyuan came back with the prince one after another, and was stunned when he saw Xie Ruqing.

"Ruqing is back." The prince was very happy to see her, and asked the kitchen to cook a few more dishes, "How is this time going, are you in a better mood?" ”

"Father Lao is worried, I'm fine." Xie Ruqing said.

Qi Zhiyuan has been staring at Xie Ruqing, she hasn't seen her for many days, she seems to have lost some weight, but she looks good, and she wants to live a very moist life outside. During this time, Qi Zhiyuan still patrolled the streets every day, and the whole person looked a lot more energetic, and he lost the greasy feeling of the previous gentleman. He has been in contact with the people for a long time, and he is not as rare as the folk women at the beginning, and it seems that the little lady in the big family is more exquisite.

Especially when he is with Huixin all day long, looking at her plump face, he can't find the slightest trace of Xie Ruqing, so he often wonders what he fell in love with Huixin in the first place.

The folk are as simple and unpretentious as her, and there is nothing new when they see too much, not to mention that now Huixin has no previous feeling, and she belongs to neither simplicity nor the delicate grace of a big family lady, but has become an extremely ordinary woman.

Now that he sees Xie Ruqing again, he doubts more and more that he was blind at the beginning, where can Huixin compare with Xie Ruqing, I'm afraid he can't even compare with a little finger.

"My sister-in-law has lost a lot of weight, I think it's because I was frightened by that incident, so I didn't eat and rest properly." Qi Zhiyuan suddenly mentioned the kidnapping of Xie Ruqing before.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Xie Ruqing was kidnapped before. The prince remembered it, but he didn't want to ask in person, the princess didn't take it to heart at all, and at this time, he called Qi Zhiyuan to remind him before he remembered that he should ask.

"No, I was so happy that I forgot to ask about it." The princess looked at Xie Ruqing distressedly, "I was frightened when I heard it, I didn't sleep for a few days, and said that it would be good to bring Ruqing back quickly, and no one would dare to take advantage of such a loophole if the family watched." ”

"I'm fine." Xie Ruqing didn't say much, it was a matter of the court, and she didn't want to talk too much.

Qi Zhiyuan didn't have any worries, he said: "When I enter the palace in the future, my mother will still follow suit, Yao Guifei is suspicious, she can do it twice if she can do it next time, her sister-in-law is delicate, and her heart is kind, so it is easy to recruit people to calculate." ”
