Chapter 436: Captain Murong

After the palace banquet, the first day of the Lunar New Year will be over. In the second year of this year, Mo Li and Murong Chu first went to the eldest princess's mansion and returned to their parents' house after lunch. This is followed by all kinds of New Year's greetings, which do not stop until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Out of the New Year, Xu Minglang invited a matchmaker to officially propose to Danyu. Both of them are fatherless and motherless orphans, originally Danyu didn't want to trouble too much, but Xu Minglang said that he couldn't wronged her, and he must marry her home.

A few years ago, Mo Li sent someone to find a few good houses, and after looking at them one by one, he settled on a small courtyard with three entrances two streets away from the palace.

After the dowry, the date was set for mid-April, Mo Li found Xu Minglang, directly handed over a wooden box to him, and said: "You have worked hard with me for the past few days, you can take this, and live a good life with Danyu in the future." ”

Xu Minglang opened the box, only to see a house deed and a few silver tickets placed in a dignified manner, and hurriedly said, "Miss, this can't be done." I discussed with Danyu and rented a house to kiss first. I have some money on hand now, and I will save up for two years to buy a smaller house. ”

"I'll take it for you, and I'm not entirely for you." Mo Li put him back on the table and stuffed it back into his hand, "Danyu served my mother when she was a child, and later served me. You've been with me for several years, and you'll treat Danyu well in the future. I don't want her to suffer any longer. ”

"But this ......"

Xu Minglang wanted to excuse himself, but Mo Li interrupted him directly: "It's nothing, there are many places to use money for yourself, especially when you have children, the cost will be even greater." has his own house, and his life is not at ease. This matter is so decided, you take the time to go over with Danyu to take a look, and add what you are missing. ”

"The eldest lady has the grace of knowing Minglang, and it is a great kindness to give me Danyu, and now the eldest lady is like this...... Minglang doesn't know how to repay the eldest lady. ”

Mo Li smiled slightly: "You take care of my business, won't it be enough to make me a lot of money?" ”

"Miss, rest assured, Minglang will do her best."

In February, the weather is gradually warmer, the first spring is blooming, the flowers are sprouting, and the apricot groves in the palace of Bac Ninh have begun to extender fragrance again. However, this year, Murong Jingzhong, the king of Bac Ninh, ordered no more apricot blossom banquets.

There are several reasons, one of which is that the princess of Bac Ninh known to the outside world is "seriously ill". Second, and an important point, after the rebels of King Jin were exterminated, the emperor rewarded the meritorious ministers, but did not mention Murong Chu, who returned late due to injury.

In mid-February, Murong Chu handed over the recital, saying that he had been poisoned in the Northwest Battlefield, and although he was saved a life, he was deeply injured by the poison and the meridians of his lungs and intestines, and he wanted to resign. To put it bluntly, I just want to quit my job.

Naturally, this kind of twist and turn will not be answered, not because the emperor does not want to agree, but because he can't agree. Putting aside whether the ministers of the court can agree or not, as far as Murong Chu is concerned, it is the existence of foreign enemies who are afraid of the Great Zhou. However, this very obvious show of weakness is still more satisfying to him.

It's definitely not okay to resign, but people with serious illnesses can't help but recuperate. Therefore, after nearly 20 days of "careful consideration", the emperor finally issued an order to crown Murong Chu as a lieutenant. is obviously included in the three dukes, but in fact, all the military power in his hands is withdrawn. But the emperor is still very sympathetic to the hero, and he is allowed to temporarily recuperate, and then return to the court after his body recovers.

After receiving the order of thanksgiving, Murong Chu returned to the Beining Royal Mansion with ease.

Murong Tiankuo was crawling around on the kang chasing a seven-colored cloth ball, and when he saw his father coming back, he tied his hands and begged for a hug.

"Good son, are you naughty today?" Murong Chu picked up his son and kissed him on the little cheek.

Mo Li raised his eyebrows: "The general seems to be in a good mood!" ”

Murong Chu corrected while holding his son aloft: "In the future, you can no longer call me a general, but you must change your name to Captain Murong." ”

"Captain?" Hearing this title, Mo Li thought of the infamous Gao Taiwei Gao Yu for no reason.

"Your husband is now ranked as the third duke. What do you think? Happy not? ”

"Is this a promotion?"

"Sort of."

"Oh? Do I still want to congratulate Captain Murong? ”

"That's not necessary, the official is promoted, and the military power is gone."

Mo Li smiled: "Then I really have to congratulate you." ”

"Rejoice and rejoice." Murong Chu said as he threw his son into the air, and then caught it steadily, causing the little guy to giggle excitedly.

But Mo Li was startled: "Hey, don't fall on your son." ”

"Why, you see how happy Kuo'er is." Murong Chu said and threw it again, before putting the little guy back on the kang and patting his little fart, "Go ahead, play by yourself for a while." ”

Murong Tiankuo was also obedient, grabbed the cloth ball on the kang and was about to stuff it into his mouth. Mo Liyan hurriedly grabbed the ball and threw it into the kang, and the little guy scrambled twice and struggled to crawl over to chase the ball.

"Li'er, how about we go out for a walk?" Murong Chu sat down at the table and poured a cup of tea.

"Okay, how about going to Dongshi Street? I happened to have a few recipes to give to Uncle Qiao. As soon as Mo Li heard that she was going out, she immediately became excited.

Murong Chu took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "It's not to go shopping, it's to go out of the city to live for a while." ”

"Huh?! Sightseeing? All right? "Mo Li still has a strong interest in traveling, even if it is a short trip, it is better than being bored at home all day.

"I'm afraid it's not okay to go sightseeing. First, the weather is still cold, and second, Kuo'er is still too young to stand the fatigue. My father has a hot spring villa outside Beijing, and I asked people to clean it up, and let's go and live there. ”

When Mo Li was in Lingxiao Valley, he was addicted to hot springs every day, and after returning to Beijing, he always muttered that soaking in a wooden barrel was not as comfortable as soaking in hot springs. Hearing Murong Chu say this at this time, he said with crooked eyebrows: "Okay, it's decided, when will we leave?" ”

Murong Chu chuckled: "Look at you." I'll send someone over first, and we'll leave in two days. ”

Because Murong Tiankuo's children also have to go along, in addition to bringing two nurses, they also have to bring a lot of things for children. Murong Chu was originally recuperating from illness, and this trip not only did not need to avoid people's eyes, but it was a bit fanfare.

Two days later, four carriages, escorted by fifty guards, left the palace of Bac Ninh. I set off in the morning, and I was not in a hurry on the road, and I wandered slowly until the afternoon to arrive at the destination - Huajing Bay.

It looks like it should be the remnants of a certain mountain, which is not very high, but it is continuous. Looking up, the tender green of the mountains and fields set off the clusters of cherry pink, which looks a little dazzling under the reflection of the sun. Mo Li couldn't help but think of that sentence: The sun is shining and fragrant, and the fresh flowers are full of Suhui.

The annex of the Bac Ninh Royal Mansion is not far from the foot of the mountain, and you don't need to take a sedan chair to get off the carriage, and you can walk along the winding mountain road in less than a quarter of an hour.
