Mrs. Chu read this letter twice before putting it down, and said with a doting smile: "Xiaotian, that kid is really willful, and he actually sent the family letter and the military newspaper of the imperial court together." ”

Mu Yan shook his index finger and said with a smile: "Mrs. Tai, you should praise Xiaotian for being smart!" ”

"You don't want to think about it, now that Jinzhou is in chaos, let the post station deliver the letter, I'm afraid this letter won't be delivered for a few months."

Mu Yanle thought happily: Isn't it just to open a back door for my brother-in-law? It's a trifle!

Duanmu Fei nodded thoughtfully, feeling that his younger brother was clever, and it seemed that he sang and harmonized with Mu Yan, which made Mrs. Chu laugh again.

Seeing Mrs. Chu's face, even the grandmothers and maids in the room were smiling, and the atmosphere became a lot more relaxed.

Mama Yu and the big girl Cuckoo exchanged a look, and they both sighed secretly: The emperor really has a heart!

Mu Yan then talked about the news of Jinzhou: "Xiaotian, this guy is not only smart, but also cunning like a fox, fooling the Jinjiazhai gang into losing again and again. ”

Next, Mu Yan and Mrs. Chu talked about the battle of Quxiang City, in this battle, Xiao Tian pretended to be a plan and fled, so as to lure the enemy to open the city gate and lure the snake out of the hole. Quxiang City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, when the city gate opens, the advantage of Jinjiazhai no longer exists, the court army that has been in ambush for a long time took advantage of the situation to attack the city, and took Quxiang City in one fell swoop, and all the fugitive rogues were taken together.

This battle was won extremely beautifully!

Mu Yan deliberately said lightly and avoided the bloody scene, Mrs. Chu listened attentively, smiled from time to time, and lifted her spirits.

Since Xiao Tian left the capital, Mrs. Chu has not been able to sleep well in the past few months, although Mu Yan gave the forbidden army and the fire battalion, but after all, it is on the battlefield, and no one can guarantee that Xiao Tian is foolproof.

The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and there are countless famous generals who died on the front line, not to mention that Chu Junxian died on the battlefield.

Now that Mu Yan has brought good news, Mrs. Chu is finally a lot more relieved, and the corners of her mouth have not been lowered.

Mama Yu said playfully on the side: "Mrs. Tai, the slave maid looks at the fifth young master and has the demeanor of an old lady. ”

Mrs. Chu seemed to think of something, smiled even more happily, and said: "This child is still more like his father, his father also said when he was a child that he wanted to be a general, if he wasn't born in the Chu family, maybe he would really be a general!" ”

In the past, when it came to the eldest son Chu Junxian, Mrs. Chu always had a little sadness between her eyebrows, but now she was dyed with a smile.

A few people in the room laughed and laughed.

Duanmu Fei listened with relish. It was the first time she had heard about her father.

After her father died, she did not dare to mention him to her grandparents, for fear of touching their grandparents' pain; The same is true of her grandparents, who are afraid that she will be sad, and rarely take the initiative to tell her father in front of her.

Mama Yu is also clear about this, the topic of the prince Chu Junxian was once an untouchable pain of the Chu family.

Now with Xiao Tian's return, this scar of the Chu family has finally begun to heal gradually.

This must be the son of the world, Mrs. Shizi and the eldest girl have a spirit in the sky, bless the reunion of Mrs. Tai's ancestors and grandchildren!

Mama Yu recited the Buddha in her heart, pondering that she had to recite the "Dizang Sutra" every day to pray for the blessing of the fifth young master.

Duanmu froze and said with a smile: "Xiaotian is a clever person, besides, there is still Master Zhang in Jinzhou to help him." He'll be back in triumph soon. ”

Mrs. Chu nodded again and again: "Scarlet, I accept your good words." ”

Duanmu smiled with crooked eyebrows.

She felt that Mu Yan was really too wise and wise, not only did she get her uncle Zhang Wenche to go to Jinzhou, but Wu Yanping, who was in charge of military and political affairs, was also Mu Yan's confidant, and with the two of them here, those officials in Jinzhou naturally didn't dare to fool their younger brother.

Duanmu Fei knows that when people are in officialdom, they will inevitably compete for power and profit, officialdom is like this, and the battlefield is also like this.

Xiao Tian is the chief soldier parachuted into Jinzhou by the imperial court, he has no foundation, no prestige, no family and military achievements, he is still a bandit, it is conceivable that the officialdom of Jinzhou will definitely not obey him.

Those Jinzhou officials want to face Xiao Angel with some small stumbling blocks, it is too easy, Xiao Tian will only have nowhere to say bitterness.

However, because Zhang Wenche and Wu Yanping arrived in Jinju as early as a year and a half ago, and in the past, the two of them have been in charge of the overall situation.

Under their leadership, some remarkable achievements were made to stabilize the situation in Jinju, so that the imperial court and Taichuzhai and Jinjiazhai formed a three-legged situation. Zhang Wenche and Wu Yanping have already gained a firm foothold in Jinju officialdom, with both official authority and popularity, they can help Xiao Tian suppress some people and some things.

Moreover, Zhang Wenche is Xiao Tian's uncle, and Wu Yanping is loyal to Mu Yan, these two people will not deliberately stumble on Xiao Angel, for Xiao Tian, with these two people as help, like a tiger with wings, it is naturally much more convenient for him to act.

It's a shame that Ah Yan was prescient! Duanmu Fei happily sent a plate of rose candied fruit to Mu Yan, meaning that this candied fruit was delicious, let him try it.

Mu Yan was very approvingly seen by Duanmu Fei's approving eyes, and his tail was almost cocked to the sky, and he ate the candied fruit deliciously.

Mrs. Chu looked at the pair of talented and beautiful children, felt that she was in a better mood, and said with a smile: "Scarlet, this candied fruit is made by Mama Yu, it tastes good, right?" ”

Duanmu nodded with candied fruit in his mouth, smiling like a flower.

She tasted it as soon as she ate it. Mama Yu has a good skill in pickling preserves, and she used to learn preserves from Mama Yu when she was in the Chu family.

Mama Yu was flattered and smiled: "It's rare that the fourth girl of Duanmu likes the craftsmanship of slaves and maids, and the girl will bring a few cans back later, and give Sister Ling a taste." ”

"Thank you, Mama Yu." Duanmu Fei accepted it with kindness, and smiled even sweeter.

Mu Yan deliberately salivated and joked: "Mama Yu, give me a few cans too." I'll send it to my mother to try it too. ”

Mama Yu was even happier, and responded with a smile: "Your Majesty, if Her Royal Highness the eldest princess likes it, even if you tell the slave maid, the slave and maid will send it to Her Royal Highness." ”

Duanmu Fei swallowed the candied fruit and said with a smile: "Your Highness and I have similar tastes, she must like it." Mama's skills are enough to open a shop in the capital, and the business must be good! ”

Mama Yu smiled from ear to ear, "That's not possible!" The slave and maid still have to stay here to serve the lady! ”

Mama Yu happily went down to prepare the candied fruit.

Mu Yan continued to talk to Mrs. Chu about Jinzhou: "Mrs. Tai, the situation in Jinzhou is already very good, and it will be calmed down in a few days." ”

Mu Yan hoped that April would end the civil strife in Jinzhou, and he knew that Duanmu Fei must have hoped that Xiao Tian would also be present when they got married.

Then, there is nothing wrong with their wedding!

Thinking of the big wedding, Mu Yan's phoenix eyes narrowed into slits with a smile, staring at Duanmu Fei's delicate side face with burning eyes, and he was secretly stupid, thinking in his heart: Now that the war in the north is over, and the forbidden army transferred back has also rested, he can transfer more forbidden troops to Jinzhou and strive to pacify Jinzhou as soon as possible.

The sooner the better!

The more Mu Yan thought about it, the more he felt that it was a good idea.

The two of them accompanied Mrs. Chu for lunch in the Xuanguo Mansion before leaving, in addition to the candied fruit, Mrs. Chu also gave them two baskets of loquat that had just been sent from the Zhuangzi.

Duanmu Fei was not in a hurry to return to Duanmu Mansion, and proposed: "Ah Yan, let's go to the flower market for a walk." My sister wants to buy some flower seedlings. ”

It's rare to come out to play, Mu Yan was reluctant to send Duanmufei back like this, and he was too busy to respond: "The flower market in the west of the city is the closest to here, how about we go over there?" ”

The two said they would leave and went to the flower market in the west of the city together.

Duanmu Fei is as excited as a bird that has released a cage, she is afraid of the cold, she is almost at home all winter, and the number of times she goes out is only a handful, until now that the weather in February is gradually getting warmer, she is happy to go out.

The two of them visited two or three shops in the flower market, but they didn't get anything, and the flower seedlings sold in these shops were more ordinary.

A certain shopkeeper didn't give up, chased the two out of the shop, and said with a crackling mouth:

"Childe, girl, don't be too busy leaving!"

"There are still some seedlings in the back! If you can't, you two can go to my flower garden and see for yourself, there are more kinds of flowers......"

As he spoke, he found that Mu Yan and Duanmu in front of him stopped suddenly, thinking that he had moved them, and he was overjoyed.

Mu Yan and Duanmu Fei didn't look at the shopkeeper at all, and their eyes were stunned to look at the two familiar backs in front of them.

A man and a woman, the man is wearing a bamboo leaf green straight jacket, and the woman is wearing a cloak embroidered with butterflies and peony flowers.

Even if he didn't see their faces, Duanmu Fei recognized the two of them, and said softly: "It's my sister and Cen Gongzi." ”

Thirty zhang ahead, Cen Yin and Duanmujun were picking flowers outside a shop, talking and laughing at those flowers.

Cen Yin had already carried a pot of flowers in his hand, and Duanmu Jun also held a pot of orchids, obviously they had already harvested.

“……”

“……”

Duanmu Fei and Mu Yan silently glanced at each other.

Duanmu Fei laughed "poof", and said crisply: "Now I don't need to pick flowers for my sister." ”

Afraid that Duanmujun and Cen Yin would see them, Duanmufei grabbed Mu Yan's wrist and ran away.

The shopkeeper didn't expect them to run away again, so he was in a hurry, and raised his voice and shouted: "Son, girl!" ”

He couldn't let Duanmu Fei and Mu Yan stay, and the two of them had already run into an uninhabited alley quickly.

Duanmu Fei ran away panting slightly, poked his head out uncomfortably and glanced in the direction of Duanmu Jun and Cen Yin, convinced that they didn't see him, and covered his mouth and smiled proudly.

Mu Yan was also happy, and watched Duanmu Fei's right hand grasp his left wrist beautifully.

Duanmu Fei retracted his gaze, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in Mu Yan's ear: "Ah Yan, guess when Gongzi Cen will come to propose?" ”

Mu Yan also deliberately lowered his voice, and pretended to whisper to Duanmufei: "I'll quietly ask the eldest brother, okay?" ”

Duanmu's eyes lit up, and he nodded frequently: "Then it's up to you!" ”

Her eyes sparkled like cold stars, as if to say, Ah Yan, you are the best!

Mu Yan was stunned by her eyes, the tail behind him wagged wildly, patted his chest and promised, "Leave this matter to me." ”

Duanmu was happy, she stood on tiptoe, and quickly kissed his right cheek, like a butterfly playing with flowers, gently, softly, only touched it, and immediately retreated.

"......" Mu Yan was stunned, and the flush expanded rapidly from his cheeks, spreading to his neck and ears, and his whole body was hot.

His heart floated higher, and he secretly made up his mind: he would be entangled until the eldest brother surrendered! He must do this properly!

Mu Yan grabbed Duanmu Fei's little hand and shook it coquettishly, "Zhen Zhen, then let's go shopping elsewhere?" ”

He looked at Duanmu Fei expectantly, even if they couldn't buy flowers, they could go shopping elsewhere, right?

So, the two left the flower market, went to Half Moon Lake to swim in the lake for an hour and a half, and went to Zhongsheng Street to shop all the way, bought all the way, until the sun was setting in the west, she was sent back to Duanmu Mansion by Yan Mu in a large bag.

So, Duanmu Xian, who had just gotten off work from the Yamen, happened to see the new emperor coming back with his little granddaughter, and he looked silly.

The corners of Duanmu Xian's mouth twitched, and the fire in his stomach rose up slowly, he worked hard every day in the Wenhua Hall and the household yamen like a spinning top, Mu Yan, a stinky boy, would be idle, and he actually skipped work!

There is no reason, there is really no reason!

Duanmu Xian simply got out of the carriage, walked towards Mu Yan with a smirk, and arched his hand without respect, "Your Majesty." ”

Even the people in the surrounding Duanmu Mansion could see that the old lady was angry with the future fourth aunt, and secretly pinched a cold sweat for the old lady, and said in his heart: How can you say that the future fourth aunt is also a dignified son of heaven, the most noble man in Dasheng!

Duanmu Xian didn't care if Mu Yangao was unhappy, and said deliberately: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that Jinzhou sent good news today, and the military department has just drafted an excerpt on grain, grass and armaments, I don't know if you have read it?" ”

"There is also the matter of the assessment of the officials over there, Lord You just handed over the fold yesterday, what does the emperor think?"

“……”

Duanmu Xian threw out a series of questions, leaving Mu Yan speechless.

Grandfather was so harsh! Mu Yan looked at Duanmu Xian with a resentful expression, and Duanmu Xian was unmoved.

Mu Yan sighed silently in his heart, originally he still wanted to leave after dinner, thinking that his grandfather would not give an expulsion order to the emperor. Hey, he still underestimated his grandfather!

Mu Yan knew that he couldn't rely on it today, so he could only obediently leave: "I'...... I'll see when I get back. ”

Saying that, Mu Yan reluctantly looked at Duanmu Fei, "Zhen Zhen, then I'll go first." ”

Duanmu Fei waved his hand heartlessly, and reminded with a smile: "Ah Yan, don't forget to ask!" ”

Mu Yan's spirits perked up, and he swore a solemn guarantee: "Don't worry, leave it to me, I will never forget it!" ”

Mu Yan subconsciously raised his hand to touch the right side of his face, and when his fingertips were about to touch his cheek, he stopped again and said to himself, can't touch it!

No, not only can't you touch it, but you can't wash your face either.

Yes, he won't wash his face today, and he won't wash it tomorrow, he wants to keep the smell of Zhenzhen......

Mu Yan smiled stupidly, got into the carriage and left, and poked his head out of the window and waved to Duanmu Fei.

When the carriage was out of the door, the grandfather and grandson turned around and walked slowly inside.

The wind at dusk was a little cooler than the day, blowing in the neck.

Duanmu Xian's heart was so curious that it was as if there was a feather scratching it repeatedly, and he couldn't help asking, "Four girls, don't forget anything?" ”

Duanmu pursed his lips and smiled, with a mysterious smile on his face, tilted his head and said mysteriously: "Secret." Don't tell you. ”

“……”

Duanmuxian stopped his steps, looked at his little granddaughter sadly, and felt sad: Hey, his good granddaughter was abducted by a stinky boy!

Duanmufei could only coax him, and used a painting and a small seal to coax Duanmuxian.

When the grandparents and grandchildren came to the Zhaohui Hall together, Duanmuheng, Ji Lanzhou and Duanmujun were already there, and the three of them were chatting, teasing Duanmuze in the nurse's arms from time to time.

Duanmuze is a funny and coaxing child, a swinging rattle is enough to make him giggle and laugh, reaching out to grab the rattle, the fat little fat hand is very cute.

With his great-grandson in his arms, Duanmu Xian had long forgotten about Mu Yan and teased the child.

For a while, the cute and well-behaved little baby became the center of everyone, everyone's voice became soft, the little guy smiled, they also giggled, and the atmosphere was very warm and light.

Everyone's face was filled with a big smile and they were happy.

Duanmu Fei teased the little guy for a while, then mysteriously came to Duanmujun's side, and deliberately whispered: "Sister, do you want me to accompany you to the flower market to pick flower seedlings?" ”

Duanmu Fei stared at Duanmu Jun and smiled, and two playful and moving pear vortices smiled on his lips.

Duanmujun stretched out his hand and nodded on the little girl's forehead, pursed her lips and smiled, her eyebrows shining.

Duanmu Jun Duanmu Fei blinked with a pair of big black and white eyes, and asked coquettishly: "Sister, what flowers did you pick today?" ”

"A few pots of orchids, Ruixiang flowers, and begonia......s," Duanmu said, counting his fingers, his eyebrows fluttering, "but there is still a little missing, I plan to go to the farms and flower gardens of those nearby flower farmers in a few days, and then pick and choose." ”

Duanmufei continued to stare at Duanmujun, although she didn't ask, but she had an inexplicable intuition that her sister might not take her.

All right. Duanmu Fei was very interested, and said with a smile: "Sister, you remember to pick some flowers for me too, I want to plant some more flowers in the courtyard outside the small study." ”

Duanmu glanced at her, her eyes sparkling like cut water.

My sister is so good-looking! Duanmu Fei looked at Duanmu Jun with burning eyes.

Duanmufei thought of something, and leaned into Duanmujun's ear again, biting her ear: "Sister, I have already asked Ah Yan to ask Gongzi Cen when he will come to propose...... Ah Yan said that this matter was wrapped up in him. ”

Duanmujun's eyes widened slightly, and his smile became brighter, like a blooming peony flower, delicate and incomprehensible.

At this time, the nurse took Duanmu Ze away, Duanmu Xian looked at the sisters, he hadn't heard the sisters whispering anything, but he intuitively felt that the two sisters were a little weird today.

Thinking of the mysterious conversation between Fang Cai's little granddaughter and Mu Yan's stinky boy, Duanmu Xian's heart rose an inexplicable uneasiness, and he always felt that something had happened that he didn't know and wouldn't like.

This thought was just a flash, and the housekeeper soon came to ask whether to set the meal, so everyone moved to the side hall, and Duanmuze was hugged by the nurse to rest.

After dinner, everyone else retreated, only Duanmujun stayed: "Zhenzhen, I have something to say to my grandfather, you go back first." ”

Duanmufei has always listened to her sister, whatever her sister says, is what she is, and she left obediently.

When Duanmu Xian heard this, the previous uneasiness rose in his heart.

After a while, only their ancestors and grandchildren were left in the side hall, and the other subordinates were all sent out by Duanmujun.

The uneasiness in Duanmu Xian's heart became even stronger, and he felt a little dry in his mouth, and picked up the teacup.

Duanmujun stood up, walked to Duanmuxian in a manner, and then solemnly blessed him, a pair of willow eyes did not shy away from looking directly at him, his eyes were clear, and he said calmly: "Grandfather, I want to marry Gongzi Cen." ”

"......" Duanmu Xian trembled, and the teacup in his hand almost didn't fall.

He didn't have the heart to drink tea anymore, so he put down the teacup he had just picked up again, and pursed the corners of his mouth in silence.

Duanmuxian raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, his head began to ache faintly, and his mood was even more confused.

Although Mrs. Li had told him about this before, Duanmuxian only wanted to think that Duanmujun was young and young Mu Ai, so he thought about it for a while, the identities and status of both of them were not suitable, and Duanmujun must also understand this.

Moreover, Duanmu Xian also has seven or eight points of understanding of Duanmu Jun's temperament.

This girl is assertive and measured, and she won't do anything that exceeds the etiquette, which Duanmuxian is very relieved of.

However, the child's being too assertive is an advantage, but also a disadvantage, so that Duanmuxian didn't dare to ask Duanmu Jun more, for fear that it would be fine, if she chased and asked, this girl would be in a hurry, her bullish temper was stubborn, I am afraid that no one could stop it, it would only backfire, but push this girl out.

What's more, even if the eldest granddaughter likes Cen Yin, but what about Cen Yin?! This kind of thing pays attention to your love and my wishes, and it is useless for the granddaughter to shave her head and pick her head hot.

On top of that, it's always a bit inappropriate for him to be a grandfather and granddaughter to say this.

Because of various reasons, coupled with Duanmuxian's heart, he has more or less an evasive attitude, he has not taken the initiative to mention this matter to Duanmujun, hoping that his eldest granddaughter can figure it out by herself, but he didn't expect him not to say it, Duanmujun took the initiative to say it himself, and he still used this calm attitude.

"Grandfather, I want to marry Mr. Cen."

"Grandfather, I want to marry Mr. Cen."

"Grandfather, I want to marry Mr. Cen."

This sentence echoed in Duanmu Xian's ears again and again, Duanmu Xian felt tightness in his chest, shortness of breath, and almost didn't come up in one breath.

Duanmujun hurriedly gave him a smooth breath, and at the same time skillfully massaged him with a few acupoints.

Duanmu Xian took a few deep breaths in a row, and his breath calmed down a little.

Duanmujun put his mind at ease, and hurriedly picked up the teacup on the square table, and tested the temperature on the teacup with his fingers before sending it to Duanmuxian's lips, and said warmly: "Grandfather, drink some water." ”

Duanmu Xian took several sips of tea, the elegant fragrance of tea lingered on the tip of the pen, and his emotions gradually calmed down from the initial excitement.

The whole person calmed down a lot.

Duanmuxian raised his eyes and looked at Duanmujun, who was close to him, and his feelings were complicated: why did his such a good granddaughter have to go to a dead end!

All kinds of emotions turned into a long sigh in his heart, and Duanmu Xian said, "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Duanmu shook his head and said, "I know." ”

The three words are clear and powerful, from beginning to end, she is calmly facing Duanmu Xian.

Duanmu Xian's head hurt even more, he rubbed his temples, and after thinking about it for a while, he said with difficulty: "You...... Do you know Cen Yinhe...... He ......"

Duanmuxian has never had such a hard time speaking in his life, and the last two key words have not been uttered for a long time.

He really doesn't want his granddaughter to marry such a man, her life will be ruined!

Duanmu pursed her lips and smiled, what kind of attitude would her grandfather have, what kind of words would he say, she had already thought about it, and she felt that she could face it.

"I know." Without hesitation, she nodded again.

Her firm and calm appearance suddenly ignited a flame in Duanmu Xian's heart.

"Then you still ......" Duanmu Xian slapped the small square table in his hand heavily and said angrily.

"Smack!"

A loquat on the fruit bowl rolls off the square table......

Duanmu Jun looked at Duanmu Xian with a firm expression, and said loudly: "I just want to marry him." ”

He's fine, all she's going to marry him!

Duanmujun's waist was straight, his eyes were as bright as the sun, and there was no dodge in his eyes, nor was there any shame.

She looked at Duanmu Xian so generously and confidently, expressing her intentions.

She didn't feel like she was in a bad position with him.

Ask as usual, do you still have a monthly pass~
