"Where did you see that?" Shaohua asked excitedly.

It has been a long time since there has been any news of Jinhua, the weather has already warmed, the snow has melted, Li Xunzhuo sent people to look outside the city for several days but did not find a trace, and they all felt that there was more luck and less luck. The Ling clan was dissatisfied with what Li Xunzhuo had done to conceal Jinhua, and thought that they should tell Li Ge Lao about Jinhua's evil deeds. As a result, Lian Xiang thoughtfully informed the Ling family that since Jinhua had disappeared, it was useless to count her wrong, so don't provoke Li Xunzhuo's dissatisfaction. As a result, Li Xunzhuo heard this passage, and he was immediately impressed by Lianxiang, and this time the Ling family became alert. A warm fragrance was almost impossible for her to grasp, she didn't want to make enemies for herself, so she immediately showed generosity in front of Li Xunzhuo, saying that she would eat fast and chant Buddha for Jinhua, hoping that she would return home as soon as possible.

Li Xunzhuo didn't expect the Ling family to eat fast and chant Buddha for Jinhua, he just hoped that she wouldn't make trouble, his favorite concubine was not around, his favorite daughter was missing again, and he was not allowed to travel far to Liangcheng, Li Xunzhuo seemed disheartened. As a result, after the snow melted, a cold spring almost made half of the people in the capital sick. Li Xunzhuo was also sick in northern Sichuan, but fortunately he had dealings with other businessmen, and someone kindly provided him with a home remedy, but he drank the medicine, bored all night, and got better the next day.

And this time, because the Li family also had his recipe, no one got sick. So people kept coming to inquire, and later he simply boiled a cauldron of potion and let those who couldn't afford medicine in Beijing be treated for free, and this kind act was greatly praised by the palace, which made Li Xunzhuo beautiful for a while.

Xiao Liuzi looked at Shaohua's serious expression, and also put on a playful smile, and said seriously: "It's at the gate of the former Great Prince's Mansion." ”

Shaohua thought for a moment, and a surprised expression appeared on his face, "The former Great Prince's Mansion, wasn't that very close to Xingyongbo's Mansion?" Youhan, who lives there now? She turned her head and looked at Youhan. Youhan was also very confused, her news was all from Ping's mother and Crutch Zhang, and she had never gone out. "I heard that it's a general from Pingzhou, but I don't know who it is."

At this moment, Xiao Liuzi became active again and shouted excitedly. "I know, I know, it's General Xu, I heard that it's bigger than the Queen Mother's house in Pingzhou. I have also heard that only one major general lives there, and the others are not seen much, but often the door is as lively as a market. "When it comes to the big and small things in Beijing, Xiao Liuzi is more sensitive than a mouse looking for peanuts, especially because it has been deserted everywhere recently, and there are only a few major events in Beijing, so he is naturally very clear.

Shaohua frowned, "Xu family? After returning from Pu'an, Shaohua heard his father say that the person who saved them was Xu Jialangjun, and I heard that they were the same age as Li Sinian, and they were also a successful teenager. It's just that compared with the nobility and elegance of Langjun in Beijing, Xu Ziang from Pingzhou is sharp, looking forward to himself, like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

If Jinhua was taken away by Xu Ziang, then Xu Ziang had returned to Beijing from northern Sichuan for so many days, there was no reason not to send people back, wouldn't Jinhua come back in a hurry?

Shaohua sneered in his heart, but if this kind of thing happened, if it was her, she would not have the face to come back.

Xiao Liuzi didn't pay attention to Shaohua's distraction at all, and started talking excitedly: "Yes! The three generals of Pingzhou are the He family, the Xu family and the merchants, but the merchants seem to have declined, and many people do not entrust. In fact, to count, the merchant is the old family, the three generals of Pingzhou together accounted for 40% of the 22 marshals of the founding of the country, but only the merchant accounted for 20%. It's a pity that he couldn't give birth to a son later, so he didn't have to decline. Speaking of the three generals of Pingzhou, Xiao Liuzi's eyes lit up, and he was obviously a little eager to move.

Youhan crossed his waist with one hand, and was about to reach over with the other hand to twist Xiao Liuzi's ears, but he jumped away smartly. Youhan, who was in the air, stomped his feet and snorted twice, and Xiao Liuzi turned his other ear aggrievedly and sent it to the door to let Youhan enjoy it. "You kid, ask you about the whereabouts of the Seventh Lady, why are you going to the three generals of Pingzhou. The godmother asked you to study hard, you must have skipped school again and went to the teahouse to listen to books. Youhan is not polite, and he grabbed Xiao Liuzi's teeth and cracked teeth.

He rubbed his ears and couldn't help but feel sorry for the teahouse. "What's wrong with the teahouse, it's not that I don't give money, besides, who said that I must study, the man should defend the country and defend the frontier, and he will only shake his head and read a few people, I am about to be dizzy by the master."

When Shaohua heard his words, he was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the little sixth son, who seemed to be in a flow of anger, had such great ambitions. Probably because she grew up in the barracks since she was a child, she has an inexplicable good impression of the generals, and when she heard Xiao Liuzi say this, she was also impressed by him.

"Even if you are marching and fighting, you have to read and write, is it possible that you want to be a soldier for the rest of your life?" Shaohua's words made Xiao Liuzi's eyes brighten.

"Really?" He thought that it was good to be able to enter the Li family as a steward, but Zhang Laolai had such a lifeline, so he deliberately begged for fulfillment in front of the Ling family and ransomed the little sixth son, so that he could go out and study like other children. I don't expect to be like my own young masters to take the top spot to explore flowers, to be a showman, or to be a man, and it can be regarded as the green smoke of the ancestral tomb of the Zhang family. He also planned to wait for two more years, and the couple also asked for a grace to redeem themselves and leave the house together, so that their son could take the exam with peace of mind. It's just that I didn't expect that Xiao Liuzi was not a piece of reading material at all, plus no one cared about him, and he skipped class twice in three days to make trouble, and people came to the door.

Shaohua nodded, it is rare that Xiao Liuzi is free, but he has the parents of Zhang Ping's mother to support him in the house, and more importantly, he is restrained by Youhan, as long as he can take care of it, this is definitely a good material for running errands. So, Shaohua decided to raise Xiao Liuzi to be his own person, and the people outside would be handed over to him in the future.

After she casually broke a few sentences of the truth of marching and fighting, and when it came to the scenery of northern Sichuan and the military orders of the barracks, Xiao Liuzi yearned for it, and immediately admired this master. Almost around, seeing that there was only reverence and convincing in Xiao Liuzi's eyes, even Youhan was dumbfounded, and Shaohua told Xiao Liuzi to keep an eye on Xu Ziang's affairs, and he wanted to find out if the person he saw was Jinhua, and the news of the Marquis of Anqing. After Shaohua's brainwashing, Xiao Liuzi made up his mind to complete the task and immediately quit and left.

Youhan looked at her master in surprise, although because of the adventure outside the city, she had another look at Shaohua, but when she heard that she had a thousand catties, she subdued Xiao Liuzi, and she obeyed her orders convincingly. It is obviously much more effective than her stomping her feet and twisting her ears to scold, and Youhan can't believe that the person in front of her is a sister.

Without waiting for Youhan to express her inner shock, Hatsuho ran in in with a panicked face. "Five ladies, five ladies, the young lady is about to give birth."

Shaohua paused his teacup and stood up excitedly. "So fast?"

Chu He wiped his sweat and said, "I just met Hongling, she said it herself, and she hurried out, saying that she was going to invite Wen Po." "Generally, well-to-do people will keep Wen Po at home early, but because during the national funeral, in order to avoid crowds and trouble, they plan to let Wen Po enter the house a month in advance. But I didn't expect that before Wen Po came to the door, Xin Zixuan was about to give birth.

"Isn't the day yet coming?" Counting the days, it seems that it is more than half a month earlier than the due date, Youhan asked curiously.

"I don't know about this, anyway, I heard that the eldest lady went to the king to visit the eldest young lady, and then the eldest young lady said that she was going to give birth." Chu He's words made Shaohua immediately sink his brows, this is clearly a cat that is greasy, and he is kept at home in a good manner, how could he suddenly give birth to a child a month early.

Without saying a word, Shaohua took Chuhe Youhan and ran to Xuyuan, but he was intercepted halfway, saying that the lady who had not gone out should not be polluted with bad luck in the past. Shaohua was so angry that she scolded Ling's brainlessness, she either went to deliver the baby, or went over to take a look. But she couldn't help it, Shaohua had to go home, ready to let Youhan inquire about the news, and immediately ran over to see her nephew and nephew when she was born.

But this wait is half an hour, I heard that Xin Zixuan has already shouted in the house that she has no strength, but Wen Po has not yet arrived, and she has not even seen Hongling's shadow.

"Ouch, how did I forget!" Youhan slapped her thigh, and suddenly exclaimed, which startled Shaohua, "Today's princess and relatives may be blocking the way, so they can't catch up." ”

"What then!" Hatsuho was also anxious.

Although marriage is not allowed during the state funeral, such a thing as harmony can be big or small, and it is related to the peace of the two countries, so an exception was made for the princess to leave the customs this morning. Although there are still people in the court who are talking about whether they should be friendly, at this time, the new emperor should show his courage and beat him over, so that Doro can see what the king of the Central Plains is. And when they knew that the princess who was close to each other was actually Laneige, some people even came out to scold that Yan Kai's whereabouts were unknown, and that Xing Yongbo had such a pair of children under his knees, and the new emperor actually married off Xing Yongbo's only daughter. But no matter what the scolding is, Laneige is still married.

Shaohua felt a little pain in his heart, even Lanzhi got married, Yan Kaizhi didn't appear, is he really dead?

But she still thinks too much now, after all, what is more dangerous now is Xin Zixuan, she was not only born prematurely, but also had a difficult birth. Now Xuyuan is so busy that everyone is around, Wen Po has not yet come, and no one at home knows how to deliver babies.

A thought flashed, Shaohua suddenly remembered that Qiang himself knew how to deliver the baby, it is said that when she gave birth to Youning, she also did not come, she held Youning out in a fit of anger, and cut the umbilical cord for her son. Although the Qiang clan often uses this incident to show off to others, Xin Maoshan will sink his face every time he hears this, it is said that the husband and wife quarreled at the beginning, and the Qiang clan ran out with a big belly. As a result, she was in pain halfway and fell at the door of someone else's house, but fortunately, a kind person helped her into the house to give birth. Later, the family gave birth to triplets and died in childbirth, so the Qiang family brought the three daughters into the house to Xin Zimo as personal maids.

But this was a long time ago, and the only thing Shaohua thought of was that instead of taking a long detour to ask Wen Po, it was better to ride a horse and take a shortcut and bring the Qiang clan. At this time, you can ignore the order not to visit the door during the national funeral, people's lives are at stake, and the Qiang clan is not an outsider. The most important thing is that Xiao Liuzi just left on his hind feet, so he didn't have a chance to deliver the letter.

"Youhan prepares a horse for me, and Chuhe listens to me, I have to go out."
