Chapter 897: Returning to Beijing III

August 13.

The moon is almost full.

Next to the official road under Luofeng Slope, a large red lantern was lit up in a place with abundant water and grass.

The soldiers of the Xuanjia Battalion have already cleared the battlefield here and set up many tents.

Li Chenan and his entourage arrived here at nightfall.

He took Zhongli Ruoshui and the four daughters to the edge of this water and grass, and saw a large area of reeds in the distance.

Xiao Baozi couldn't wait to sit on the edge of the aquatic plants, took off his shoes and socks, and put his small white feet into the water.

Ning Chuchu and Xia Hua were no exception, the two sat on both sides of Xiao Baozi, and also put the pair of beautiful feet in the water.

Ning Chuchu has long lost the image of the fourth princess.

And Xia Hua didn't have the slightest appearance of the eldest lady of Xia Guogong's mansion.

The longer they spend with Xiao Baozi, the more they seem to be affected-

They also liked to wear loose linen clothes.

Not to mention, on such a hot day, it is really comfortable to wear this wide hemp suit.

It's just that the bandeau inside is still a little uncomfortable.

They no longer pay attention to the rules they have learned in the women's training, and their nature is so open, although the posture of the youngest daughter is still the same in front of Li Chenan, but many quiet changes have occurred in speech and demeanor unconsciously.

Li Chenan didn't care about this, and even thought it was good.

Only Zhongli Ruoshui still seems to be the same as on March 3 of that year.

She was still wearing a long white silk dress.

She won't sit on the floor like Xiao Baozi and the others.

They will not show their feet when outsiders may arrive.

Even if your feet are in the water.

She still likes to read, Li Chenan doesn't know what book she reads, but she can see that she is fascinated by it.

Like now.

Xiao Baozi and the three of them were washing their feet by the pool, but Zhongli Ruoshui was sitting a little away, holding a lantern in his hand, reading alone.

The waterhole rippled under the washing of three pairs of small feet, and there was a night breeze blowing, although it was still a little hot, but it was much better than the day.

The sound of pots and pans could be heard in the distance, and ...... up close

Li Chenan sat on a stone, looked at Zhongli Ruoshui, and then looked at Xiao Baozi, and felt that this was the most beautiful picture under the moonlight.

He loved it.

Not far away was a donkey, two horses and a dog.

Two horses, one of which is a snow-white stallion.

It was snatched from the hands of the desolate people, and it was very strong, much taller than the second goods, and it looked a lot more majestic.

It is very bad with the second goods.

It's all male!

The two look at each other!

This horse, Li Chen'an kept it, because he still owes a horse!

When he was going to Kyoto two years ago, Cheng Yiren, the lord of Yunchen County, rushed to pick him up, but her horse was slaughtered by a flying knife in his hand!

Said to pay her the best horse.

Her horse is called Treading Clouds, it is black, and it is a dark cloud, not beautiful!

Li Chenan decided to compensate her for this snow-white horse, which deserves the name of Tayun.

This time he went back to Kyoto, and he was going to go to the waterfront port where the Guangling Navy Division was stationed.

Go and meet the Admiral of Guangling Sailor, brother-in-law Zhongli Qiuyang!

Cheng Yiren, the lord of Yunchen County, is by Zhongli Qiuyang's side, and this dry wood and fire should also get married.

Of course, it's not too important.

He needs to see with his own eyes the current situation of the Guangling Water Master!

Because Ningguo also has an eastern island hanging over the sea!

In order to plan for the long term, the Guangling Sailor must be developed.

Take back Dongqiao Island, there is a best natural harbor, no one knows better than him how important this matter is!

I heard that the dock in the waterfront harbor has been abandoned over the years.

I heard that the number of warships that can still be barely used has also changed from 266 in the glory days to 72 today.

I heard that even the number of sailors has dropped from 120,000 to 26,000 now.

I don't know how Zhongli Qiuyang has built the waterfront port in the past two years.

I don't think it will change much, because the imperial court still doesn't have any extra money to rebuild the waterfront port.

Li Chenan was thinking about these things.

Zhongli Ruoshui was looking at the book "Seeking Joy".

Xiao Baozi and the three of them were whispering.

Outside the tent, Wang Zhenghaoxuan and several people sat on the ground, talking about their own ideals.

Next to the row of marching stoves, the girls who had taken off their armor and put on red long skirts were cooking with the soldiers of the Xuanjia Battalion!

The warriors of the Xuanjia Battalion are all orphans.

They have been trained for a long time and have very little contact with outsiders, so they are still shy when they are not young.

Especially in front of this group of warblers, warblers, and swallows, and girls who are bold and bold!

Even Zhou Zheng was extremely embarrassed.

Facing Tianquan's fiery gaze, he, a big man, suddenly found that he would rather face the deserted cavalry than face this girl calmly.

"What do you ...... to ask?"

Tianquan raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Zheng, who was at a loss, and suddenly covered his mouth and smiled:

"Age is not a problem, I already know, you are thirty-two, I am twenty, and I am twelve years older...... The landlord and the old rich family take a concubine, and the seventy or eighty can also accept a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. ”

"Although I am twenty, I am still a yellow flower girl, and you will not lose anything if you marry you!"

Zhou Zheng was extremely nervous.

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, not daring to look up at Tianquan.

After a while, he whispered: "Zhou is not worthy of a girl!" ”

Tianquan raised his eyebrows: "What you said is not right!" ”

"You are an orphan, I am also an orphan, we don't have parents, so we don't need our parents!"

"As for the matchmaker...... I can ask the fourth princess to be a matchmaker for us! ”

"I know you're very good at fighting, but I'm also a sharp knife in Ning Xiu's pawn!"

"You are not married, I am not married, why are you not worthy?"

Zhou Zheng's strong heart was pounding at this time.

He and Ben didn't expect that he would be confessed one day!

He never had the luxury of expecting that he would be able to get married one day in his life!

"A certain is a soldier, and his life in this life is a horse leather shroud...... The regent has lofty ideals, and in this life, he should fight on the battlefield for the regent...... Therefore, a certain dare not get married! ”

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I'll miss the girl's life!"

Tianquan pursed his lips and smiled: "Aren't you just worried that I will be widowed if I die on the battlefield?" ”

"I have been in Ning Xiu for more than a year, and I have been very clear...... But have you ever wondered if you've ever asked a question? ”

Zhou Zheng raised his eyes to look at Tianquan and asked:

"What's the problem?"

"You died on the battlefield but there was no queen, if the five hundred soldiers of the Xuanjia Battalion were like you, they all died on the battlefield without a queen......"

"Let me ask you, is the Xuanjia Battalion no longer there?"

"So for the sake of the Xuanjia Battalion, in order to have descendants to protect the family and defend the country, should you get married earlier and have a future sooner? In this way, there will be no end to the children and grandchildren, so that they can defend the family and country for generations! ”

Zhou Zheng was taken aback, and he suddenly found that Tianquan's words were very reasonable.

It's just that this is extremely unfair to Heavenly Power.

Unexpectedly, Tianquan said again at this time:

"That's it!"

"After returning to Kyoto, when I had some leisure, I invited Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess to marry us."

"As the general of the Xuanjia Battalion, you should set an example!"

"Let's Ning Xiu's girls...... The appearance is not very beautiful, but it can also go up to the hall and down to the kitchen! ”

"Not only can you have children, but you can also go to war with your husband!"

After saying this, Tianquan smiled and turned to leave.

Zhou Zheng stood in the moonlight and looked at Tianquan's graceful back.

Suddenly I felt a little hot.

Get married?

Marriage is even a family!

Family......

What does home look like?
