"The female martial arts of the Chu family are strong, catch the thieves, have contributed to the court, and give 100 horses of silk and satin, General Chu Minggang teaches her daughters to have a good way, and 100 acres of Jialu field."

This reward can be said to have been chosen at the right time, and the Spring Festival is just a few days away, adding another good thing to the already jubilant atmosphere.

The old lady knew that Ruojun had been rewarded, so she smiled from ear to ear, and said to General Chu on the side: "With these awards from the emperor, who will dare to talk nonsense about our Ruojun practicing martial arts in the future." ”

General Chu had no expression on his face, and the old lady continued: "Gang'er, you have to open some, although this kid is out of proportion, but after all, she has done a good thing, so many flower thieves who have not been caught were caught by our Ruojun, a good thing, a good thing." ”

The old lady looked at the rewarded silk and satin, and her face was relieved and satisfied.

General Chu was silent, his face slightly tired.

He slowly stood up from his seat and sighed, "That's it, I don't care about her anymore, she can learn martial arts if she likes it, and she can learn from whoever she likes." ”

The old lady looked at him and didn't know what to say about him.

When the news came out, the chairman of Nan'an County was really angry.

However, when I thought of the last time I made a statement to Concubine Liu, Concubine Liu would never let Chu Ruojun be the princess of King Qi.

In addition, the Queen Mother passed the word, and the Queen Mother would marry herself to him in front of King Qi at the royal dinner, so he avoided talking about it as before.

Chu Ruojun was rewarded, but in fact, he didn't have anything to lose, but Chu Ruojun stole all the limelight, and the county lord of Nan'an just sulked with himself for a while.

This year, the Chu family has received a lot of rewards, and the New Year's goods purchased are also generous, pulling several carts of New Year's goods a day, and there are a lot of popular things nowadays, Chu Ruojun is busy every day, and he can't help but taste everything.

There are also many people who send gifts to the door, not to mention the Lin family, which has been a friendship for many years, and the gifts are still exchanged, but this year, even the King of Qi has sent someone to send some routine gifts.

All the gifts General Chu looked at the gift list and let the housekeeper deal with it himself, he didn't care about these things at all.

However, there is one thing that makes Chu Ruojun very happy, that is, many of the things sent are only for himself, and he no longer just looks at General Chu's face.

Chu Ruojun couldn't help but think that if he could also go to the battlefield and kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, would the Chu family be able to restore the grand occasion of the two generals as before.

And she is also the only female general.

Chinese New Year's Eve arrived soon, and General Chu's mansion was decorated with joy, and the table was already full of wine and food.

Chu Ruojun smiled and picked up a glass of wine and said to General Chu: "Dad, my daughter has a glass of water and wine, and I wish you a good New Year." ”

General Chu also took the glass of wine with a smile: "Since the emperor has rewarded you and said that you have merit, if I stop you from practicing martial arts again, you will definitely not be convinced, besides, how I managed you before, you have not listened to me, in the future, I don't care about your martial arts, you can learn how you want, but I only hope you can do one thing, that is, don't get into trouble, be good, be safe." ”

Bai Zhixin said: This is really the minimum requirement of the master.

"Yes." Chu Ruojun smiled: "Since my father allowed me to practice martial arts, can I learn from you in the future?" ”

General Chu said: "No, I can't teach you." ”

Chu Ruojun was puzzled, and the smile on her face immediately collapsed: "Why not?" ”

"Your martial arts are all taught to you by your brother, how I teach him, he teaches you how he wants, although it is not as strict as my requirements, but he will, and he will hand it over to you without reservation." General Chu smiled, "That day I saw you practicing in the courtyard, there was obviously a flaw but you didn't notice it, I didn't expect it to be an illusion, you deliberately created that flaw, and used it to injure the flower thief, even I didn't notice this, it seems that Lin Changtian did help you a lot, you and him are both skills, and what I am best at is strength, I can't teach you." ”

Chu Ruojun nodded: "So that's the case." ”

Then he regained his smiling face, but he was a little distressed that he couldn't learn all the martial arts.

That's pretty insatiable.

"Learn martial arts, grandma also hopes that you won't get into trouble again, so that you won't be beaten, you don't know, every time you get hurt, grandma is distressed." The old lady smiled with her eyebrows, "Come, don't talk about this, let's eat vegetables, if you don't eat vegetables, it will be cold." ”

General Chu got up and saluted the old lady and congratulated, "Mother, I wish you evergreen pines and cypresses, and your body is as good as ever." ”

"My son has a heart." The old lady raised a glass of wine, and the two of them drank it all.

Fireworks and firecrackers were lit outside, and on the night of the New Year's Day, the city was full of lights, and there was not only crystal white snow on the ground, but also fiery red flower paper covering the snow.

Although it is lively, after all, it is different from the Lantern Festival, everyone stays at home to reunite with their relatives, and there is basically no trace of pedestrians on the street except for children with firecrackers and firecrackers.

However, this bustle needs to be guarded, and the soldiers who patrol the city are still standing in the snow in the bitter cold and holding on to their posts.

I thought with emotion that it would be nice if I could go home and reunite.

There was also a banquet in the palace, only to hear the eunuch say in a sharp voice: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi has arrived-"

As soon as King Qi stepped in, he was attracted by this magnificent arrangement, which looked like a splendid world.

The table was already full of food and drink.

The Queen Mother got up with a smile and held the silver cup in her hand: "This year, the King of Qi is also back, and the mourning family is very relieved to see the children reunited." ”

The queen mother and the emperor are on the upper seat, the queen is the head first, and the other concubines are arranged according to their ranks.

Sitting opposite the queen was King Qi.

The corners of his mouth were smiling, squinting a pair of peach blossom eyes to see the dancing girls in the hall dancing, the fireworks exploded in the sky, and he couldn't suppress the loud sheng song, which was beautiful but the song and dance were level.

The Queen Mother's eyes were shining, and she looked at Shen Yi and said, "Yi'er, remember that you are twenty-two this year." ”

King Qi didn't expect that she would ask herself directly after watching a song and dance, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "Yes, after March, it will be truly twenty-two." ”

The Queen Mother hooked her red lips and smiled shallowly, "It's time to start a family, otherwise Concubine Liu always tells the mourning family that she is not in good health, you are in a fiefdom, and no one takes care of you, she really can't rest assured." ”

Shen Yiyun smiled lightly, knowing that the Queen Mother was going to mention her marriage again, this time she finally talked about it clearly, and did not give herself any way out.

If the emperor decrees marriage at this time, he really can't escape from marrying the lord of Nan'an.

He glanced at the emperor lightly, if the emperor is not stupid, he will definitely work against the queen mother, and he must not give a decree to marry, and his marriage with the lord of Nan'an will not do him any good.

"Erchen has always been unrestrained, comfortable and comfortable, and he doesn't want to be restrained." Shen Yi replied.

"Nonsense." The Queen Mother glanced at him and said slowly: "As a royal descendant, adding heirs to the royal family and passing on the lineage is a major matter, so you can't be at ease." ”

Her eyes stared at King Qi for a moment, "It's better to be like this, the county lord of Nan'an is the same age as you, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and will definitely be a virtuous and virtuous princess in the future. ”

Although Shen Yi knew that she would say this, when she heard this, her heart couldn't help but sink.

He didn't know what to do for a moment.

You can't say that the lord of Nan'an is ugly like before, this excuse not only offends people, but also can't deal with it at all, it will only displease the queen mother, and he has nothing to do if he insists on marrying Shao Shifang to himself.

The emperor suddenly spoke: "I have my own arrangements for King Qi's marriage, and I don't have to worry about it." ”

Shen Yi breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, the two of them remained consistent in this matter.

"Your Majesty, this is a matter of the harem, so you don't have to interfere." The Queen Mother lowered her eyes and looked at him.

The emperor laughed, "The queen mother laughed, I am the emperor, in charge of the world, what is there that I can't control?" ”

He drank a glass of wine and said: "Besides, the things of this harem should not be in the hands of the queen mother, this palm phoenix seal, who dominates the six palaces, is my queen." ”

The queen mother knew that the emperor would definitely intervene in this matter, although her face was displeased, but it was just a flash, and her eyes fell on King Qi again, "Today is a celebration for the whole world, if it can be a good thing, it will be even more joyful, the mourning family wants to ask Yi'er's thoughts, if he agrees, the emperor and the queen should not stop it." ”

Shen Yi knew that if he agreed, there would be no room for recovery.

He had no choice but to smile casually, "Erchen just asked the person who supervised the Heavenly Division a few years ago, and Erchen was ordered to commit Hongluanxing this year, and it is not suitable for marriage, if you insist on doing so, against the will of heaven, I am afraid that it will backfire and suffer from God's curse, and the queen mother doesn't want to do this." ”

The Queen Mother instantly couldn't hold back the dignified image she had maintained before, and said loudly: "Such a big matter, why didn't you report to the mourning family earlier!" ”

In an instant, the happy and peaceful atmosphere just now was swept away, and everyone present was silent, and couldn't help but sweat for King Qi.

Shen Yi's face did not change, and he said leisurely: "Erchen thinks this is a trivial matter, don't bother the queen mother, Erchen also ordered Hongluan Xing to commit the crime the year before last, and he never reported to the queen mother, so he thought this matter was insignificant." ”

The queen mother endured it, took a deep breath, and before she could speak, the emperor interjected again: "I also think that this is a trivial matter, but it is just to marry a concubine, maybe King Qi has already had a sweetheart in the fief, so don't worry about these thoughts." ”

The emperor smiled and raised his glass to King Qi, "But you are also wrong, today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, a good New Year, King Qi provokes the displeasure of the queen mother, and Shu will punish you for drinking three glasses, so how about it." ”

"Yes, the royal brother is willing to be punished." King Qi smiled and raised his glass, and then drank it all.

He was very willing to drink these three glasses of wine.
