Two days later, Situ Yimo set off back to Chang'an with His Royal Highness the Prince, and there was a lot of joy on the way. Tang Wuchi is noisy, Situ Xi is still young, the two of them met together, they went up the tree to chase the monkey, and they went into the water to catch fish, they just wanted to go to heaven and earth.

Situ Yimo accompanied His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to paint and play chess, anyway, they were quiet and Ninghua on their side.

Situ Han and Mr. Song are drinking and chatting, and they are also comfortable and content.

Southern Xinjiang is far away from Chang'an, and no matter how fast the carriage is, it will take three months, and it will be a month before they arrive at Lishan. Situ Yimo took Situ Xi to meet his mother, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to see Dean Qu, and they rested in Lishan for a day before continuing their journey the next day.

Originally, Mrs. Qu wanted to keep the two children for a few days, but Qu Yuan knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had every opportunity, so how could he delay, so he asked Situ Yimo and them to leave with His Royal Highness the Prince, and before leaving, he also sent a box of books to Situ Yimo.

Three months is not long, it is not short, and in a blink of an eye, they have arrived in Chang'an.

Different from the comfort of Weicheng, Chang'an is lively and prosperous, just the shouting and cheering of the stalls on the street is wonderful, Situ Xi came to Chang'an for the first time, and saw the fun, and was excited and happy.

As soon as the people of Situ Wangfu got the news, the housekeeper waited at the door early with the maids and guards, and when he saw that the carriage finally appeared, he was so excited that tears came out.

"Third master, Mr. Song--"

"Well, these days, Uncle Zhong's hard work."

The butler asked Situ Han and them to lead them to the stable, and he looked at the girl and the little boy who got off the horse, and looked at their faces similar to those of the uncle, his eyes were red, and his voice trembled.

"The old slave greets the county lord and the little prince--"

"Uncle Zhong, hurry up--"

The loyal housekeeper listened to the familiar shout, wiped his tears, nodded gratefully and got up, his eyes have been on Situ Xi's body, since the last time I saw him, Situ Xi was just a baby in swaddling clothes, I didn't expect it to grow so big.

"Uncle Zhong--"

Situ Xi saluted, and the loyal housekeeper hurriedly waved his hand, saying that he couldn't stand it, but Situ Yimo said that the loyal housekeeper was an elder and could afford to be respected.

The loyal housekeeper was grateful, and hurriedly asked people to move the salute in, and looked at Situ Yimo and them excitedly, which made Xinglu, who was a daughter, couldn't help but joke, saying that her father didn't care about her, and until now she entered the door, there was no her in her eyes.

The loyal butler knocked Xinglu's head and welcomed them into the house with a happy face.

"After so many years, the furnishings in this house are the same as those I remember when I was a child." Situ Yimo looked at her home, her heart was at ease, just looking at the cherry tree in the yard, the red and tender cherries, she smiled, "This is a cherry tree, but life is tenacious." ”

"No, how can we grow cherries, but after the uncle planted it in this yard, it blossomed and bore fruit on its own, and the fruit was sweet and beautiful." The housekeeper couldn't help but sigh.

"This cherry was planted by my father?"

Situ Yimo nodded and stopped under the cherry tree, "Yes! This cherry tree was planted by my father's own hands, no more than the soil of southern Xinjiang, this soil is very ordinary, but it grows taller than any cherry tree. ”

"Father is amazing!"

"yes!"

Situ Yimo sighed, and then led Situ Xi to the courtyard and introduced him to the new courtyard, "This Qingfeng Courtyard is the courtyard where my father lived when he was a child, in the future, will Xi'er live here?" ”

"Good!"

"Xi'er wants to live in the courtyard where her father lives!"

Seeing Situ Xi running in excitedly, Situ Yimo smiled happily, with a housekeeper guarding here, she went back to her yard with confidence.

"Xi Ya Yuan--"

These three words were written by my father's own hand.

Situ Yimo stared at the plaque for a long time before walking to the courtyard, and seeing that it was spotless, she smiled and asked Xiqiu to reward them, saying that she liked the decorations in the yard very much.

When the maid heard that there was a reward, she was naturally happy! Standing happily in the courtyard, waiting for Situ Yimo's orders.

"County Lord, the hot soup is ready, do you want to bathe now?" Gan Tang knew Situ Yimo's habits, and as soon as he returned home, he asked people to prepare hot soup.

Situ Yimo nodded, she was tired from a day of traveling, and she really needed hot soup to warm her body.

Chang'an is not as warm as southern Xinjiang, and the house needs to burn silver carbon to be warm. A rich mansion like Situ Wangfu, in addition to the best silver filigree carbon, also has earth fire, and there are warm pearls shining during the day.

Therefore, Situ Yimo did not feel a trace of coldness since he entered the house.

For dinner, Situ Yimo wore a moon-white Luo skirt, although the style was simple, it could stand up to her elegant and refined temperament, which made people's eyes shine, and the maids were a little crazy.

"Sister--"

Situ Xi was wearing a small blue brocade robe and sat on a stool waiting for Situ Yimo, and when he saw her coming, he called her happily.

Situ Yimo sat next to Situ Xi and didn't see her uncle, so she couldn't help but be surprised, "Strange, why don't you see your uncle?" ”

"Back to the county lord, the third master said that there was something wrong with Qinfangyuan, and he won't come back tonight."

"What about Mr. Song?"

"Someone just sent a letter, saying that he was looking for Mr. Song, and Mr. Song received the letter and went out, saying that he would not return home for the next two days."

Situ Yimo frowned slightly, "Did Mr. Song say that he wanted to go out because of something?" ”

The housekeeper shook his head, "Mr. Song didn't say that the old slave of this messenger has never seen it." ”

"Okay, I got it."

"Then, Xi'er, let's eat it ourselves."

"Hmm."

After finishing the meal, both of them were a little tired, so they went back to the room early to rest, Situ Yimo also wanted to rest, but he couldn't sleep on the Luohan Collapse, so he got up and asked what happened in Chang'an.

After all, she is going to stay in Chang'an for a long time, and she still needs to know about the movements in Chang'an.

But the maid told Situ Yimo about the recent major events, such as the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion to marry the second prince as a concubine, and the third lady of the Luo family to marry the second prince as a side concubine.

"I remember that in the Second Prince's Mansion, there was originally a side concubine, right?" Situ Yimo had a little impression of this second prince, after all, the previous Hubu Shangshu was his person. But now the head of the household has been replaced by his second uncle.

"Back to the county lord, the daughter of the former Hubu Shangshu is the second prince's side concubine, and she also gave birth to a daughter for His Royal Highness. However, Dali Temple found out that the former household department was greedy for ink, and the joint bandits actually robbed the official silver! The emperor was furious and beheaded the former Shangshu to show the public, and the women and children of the former Shangshu Mansion were sent to the frontier. ”

Situ Yimo nodded, the corruption case investigated by Gong Bohuai should be related to the previous cases. However, a household Shangshu dares to join bandits to rob the official silver, which is a big crime of robbing the family and exterminating the clan, I don't believe that he is a Shangshu daring.

Behind this, if there is no one to support him, I don't believe it, but anyone with a little brain can guess that the Second Highness is inseparable from this matter.

But at this time, he can still marry the prime minister's daughter as a concubine, it seems that the two highnesses are also very tough!

"In addition to the second prince, what other major events have happened in Chang'an? I remember that the prince of Beiyue came to my Nanning to marry for a hundred years in the New Year, and I don't know which princess he married? ”

The maid replied, "Back to the county lord, the prince of Beiyue married the second daughter of the prime minister, and the slave maid heard that the original North Vietnamese mission wanted to marry the lord of Nirui, but the second daughter of the prime minister's mansion danced a song of love at the birthday banquet, so that the prince of Beiyue fell in love at first sight, and the emperor specially named her Princess Showa, and pro-Beiyue." ”

Situ Yimo raised his eyebrows and smiled, it's good if it's not the county lord of Nirui, but this prime minister's mansion has been full of happy events recently! One daughter is the second princess, and the other daughter is the princess of North Vietnam.

"But what's new?"

The maid thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "Also, it is the Tang Guo Mansion, four days later, the Tang Guo Duchess will arrange a flower banquet at home, and will entertain the noble women of Chang'an." The county lord has returned to Chang'an, and I think the county lord will also receive an invitation. ”

Situ Yimo raised his eyebrows, flower banquet, this clearly wants to pick a daughter-in-law, right? I remember that Tang Guogong only had one son-in-law, right?

So, Tang Wuchi is going to marry a wife?

The next morning, as the maid said, the Tangguo Mansion did send someone to send an invitation, Situ Yimo looked at it, a little embarrassed, she had never liked such an occasion.

But what the housekeeper said also made sense, she had just returned to Chang'an, and if she didn't fit in, she was afraid of being truthful.

It's just that this Mrs. Tang is choosing Mrs. Tang Wuchi, is it appropriate for her to go?

"Anhe, Anhe!!" As soon as the earth-shattering shouts rushed in, Situ Yimo knew without thinking about it that it must be the county lord of Nirui.

"Ahh

"Anhe, I finally see you!"

"I want to kill you!"

As soon as the county lord Nirui entered the door, he came to Situ Yimo and gave her a big hug, reluctant to let go.

"Originally, I wanted to come to Situ Wangfu to look for you yesterday, but I was trapped in the palace yesterday and couldn't get out."

"Trapped in the palace?"

"Yes! Brother Prince's Brother! ”

When Situ Yimo heard this, he was helpless, pushed away the county lord of Nirui, walked back, sat on the rose chair, and motioned to the maid to get a snack. The county lord of Nirui didn't need Situ Yimo to greet him, he also sat down, and talked about what happened to her in Chang'an.

Situ Yimo listened to her so quietly, nodded appropriately, and interjected a few words from time to time. But when she talked about the Luo family, she was a little surprised.

"The Luo family? Could it be the Luo family of Honglu Temple? ”

"yes!"

The county lord of Nirui nodded, "This Luo family's concubine, Luo Yilan, the imperial grandmother intends to give Miss Luo to the little imperial uncle. ”

"Little prince?"

"Hmm."

Situ Yimo was slightly stunned, and then thought of Concubine Lin's son, she was the youngest son of the first emperor, and she was only twenty years old this year. Because he is still young, he has been pampered since birth. The emperor also loved this young brother very much, and the other princes went to the fiefdom, but only the little prince stayed in Chang'an.

"The marriage has been given?"

The county lord of Nirui pouted, "No, the little imperial uncle said that he didn't want to marry a wife, and the imperial grandmother and the concubine didn't listen to any persuasion." What does he say, he has to take a fancy to himself, and he is willing to marry what he likes. ”

This little prince is quite individual.

Situ Yimo raised his eyebrows, and when he saw that the county lord Nirui was worried, he asked, "The little prince doesn't want to marry because he has met Miss Luo?" Doesn't fit the eye? ”

"Nope." Lord Nirui sighed, "Uncle Xiao Huang said that he wouldn't marry anything, saying that Miss Luo was as beautiful as a fairy, and he wouldn't marry either." ”

"But I look at Miss Luo, beautiful and gentle, and I like it when I look at it. It's just that the little imperial uncle is not happy, which is really anxious. ”

Situ Yimo listened, and the county lord of Nirui seemed to want to match this marriage, so he said, "Since the little prince hasn't seen Miss Luo, it's better to let him see him, maybe it will be love at first sight." ”
