Princess Anping smiled slightly, hiding the sadness in her eyes: "I'm doing well now." The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is pleasant, if the imperial brother is free to come to live with me, he will be relaxed and happy. ”

The emperor smiled: "The last time I went back to Jiangnan, it was about ten years ago. ”

When Princess Anping heard this, the smile on her face gradually faded. The last time the emperor went to Jiangnan, he still visited Concubine Shu's mother's house, and after he came back, he fell ill.

Xianghua couldn't interject when she listened to it on the side, and when she saw that the emperor and the princess didn't move their chopsticks, they didn't dare to eat, but they just quietly looked at the emperor for a while, and then looked at the princess for a while. They are obviously brothers and sisters, but they have to abide by the courtesies of the monarch and ministers, and they are a little restrained.

Only then did the emperor see that the princess was still accompanied by a beautiful little girl, so he asked, "This is the righteous daughter you recognize?" ”

Xianghua heard the emperor call herself, and hurriedly got up and bowed: "Back to the emperor's words, the people's daughter has become a fragrant flower, fortunately, the princess has mercy and accepted as a righteous daughter, and she has come to thank the emperor." ”

The emperor nodded and asked her to get up and speak.

"You're from the Golden State? Anping said that your family has accumulated good karma, not only to help the village avoid flooding, but also to build a school, and bring the people in the village to earn some money, so you don't have to go hungry, these are all true? ”

Xianghua lowered her head and replied: "These things are all done by the magistrate and the people's family, I really don't dare to be such a big name." ”

When the emperor heard this, he laughed, "You are lying." The magistrate of your Taiping Town also knows that it is true that he is an honest official, but it is also true that he is mediocre. Recently, he finally had an excerpt handed to me, and he said that it was because of the guidance of the Cheng clan of Qingshan Village, why don't you dare to recognize it? ”

Princess Anping said with a smile: "Brother Huang, Xianghua is like this, he never leaves his name when he does good deeds, and he is afraid of being seen." ”

Xianghua blushed slightly, and said embarrassedly: "It's not that Xianghua is too modest, these things can be done, the support of the county magistrate, my family, and the support of the village are indispensable, Xianghua really doesn't dare to take this credit." ”

The emperor listened to the Sacred Heart, nodded, and said to Princess Anping: "You told me earlier that I recognized a little peasant girl as a righteous daughter, and I was still surprised, how many children of wealthy families you can't look down on, how can you just fall in love with a peasant girl." Now that I understand, you righteous girl knows it well. ”

Princess Anping said to Xianghua: "Xianghua, don't thank the emperor for his praise." ”

Xianghua knelt down again to thank her, and this time the emperor said that she was exempt before she knelt down, and asked her to go back to sit and talk.

The emperor was cold on his knees, and finally saw a fresh face in the palace, and he was in a good mood, so he asked a few more questions. I asked Xianghua how old she is this year, who else is there in the family, and who can read and write, and it seems that I am quite satisfied.

"The rest, I just tell someone to do it. Anping, it's so easy for you to come back, but you have to leave after the New Year this year, right? ”

Although the emperor asked like this, there was a sincere look in his eyes.

Xianghua just heard that Princess Anping was not willing to stay in the capital, and she didn't have time to ask what she was willing to do, so she also looked at her.

Princess Anping saw that her royal brother was dying and his spirit was not very good, and it was very pitiful to live alone in this huge palace, so she softened her heart and said: "Since they are all back, they naturally have to leave after the New Year." ”

"That fragrant flower is also going to be lively, right?" The emperor looked at Xianghua again, and there was a little hope.

Xianghua glanced at the princess, and when she nodded, she smiled and said, "That Xianghua is better to be respectful." ”

The emperor was happy and ordered people to say: "Tell the imperial dining room that this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner must be lively." ”

The emperor said something to the princess again, and then he heard the attendant prompt outside: "It's already halfway over, please rest the emperor." ”

The emperor frowned and said unhappily: "I am not sleepy. ”

Princess Anping smiled and persuaded: "Brother Huang, I also advised you to take care of your body more, it's really late today, Anping will come to talk to you another day." ”

The emperor had no choice but to agree.

When Xianghua and the princess arrived at the mansion, they each rested.

The next day, it was snowing outside, and the fragrant flowers reflected the snow and sat in front of the window to write a letter to home. Her original chicken-claw-like words were disliked by Mama Zhao in every way, and in the end, Xianghua gritted her teeth and practiced desperately for a few days, and now she can finally read the words.

A few days ago, she was so busy that she could only take the time to think about some of the things she said at home, and now she has replied together.

His uncle had already visited Huangni Village and said that it was indeed suitable for building a fish pond. According to what Xianghua said, they have already made a plan, and the people in Huangni Village are very willing, so there should be no problem.

It takes a lot of timber to build the school building, and her father has already prepared some of it, and he can start work on a good day after the year. Xianghua didn't know if she could go back for a while, so she asked her father to discuss with Yan Gou to start the project, and if she should ask someone to help, the salary was to be paid.

There are also some family matters. In previous years, at the end of each year, Xianghua himself came to carry out a liquidation, how much income this year, how much expenditure, how much balance, Xianghua will all remember clearly. Although their family has a lot of income, they also spend a lot of money, and if they don't plan well, they may not be able to make ends meet.

She is not here this year, and this matter can only be handled by Xiangmiao and Donglin. Xiangmiao thought, Donglin is good at arithmetic, she told him the method, and he will calculate it first. Kanae knows where to calculate, and it shouldn't be difficult for the two to work together.

Finally, it's the annual gift. This is not difficult, in the past, the New Year's gifts sent in and out, Xianghua kept a list there, and it was good to add some to send it this year.

After Xianghua finished writing this, folded it and put it in an envelope. Rubbing his sore wrist, he began to write a letter to Taro.

Donglin and Xiangmiao sent a letter from Taro, but Taro couldn't wait for Xianghua's reply for a long time, and had already guessed that she was not at home.

Xianghua looked at the notes one by one, and learned about the situation of taro at the border.

The Huns, who were captured alive last time, did not wait for the interrogation and died head-butting. But the boss still knew what they had done, and gave him many more opportunities. During the ring competition in Layue, Taro got his wish and entered the A-shaped class, and Tiezhu, Chenggou Yu, and Chengma also broke away from the de-shaped class.

Taro later learned that the first five classes from the beginning of the first class had to participate in actual combat training, and if they encountered the Huns, they would also have to go out of the city to face the battle. The last five classes are mainly responsible for guarding the city. There are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and the men who enlist in the army are proud to enter the first five classes, and few are greedy for life and afraid of death.

Taro also said that the several jars of hot sauce he brought were so fragrant that many people gathered around to ask for a little when it was time to eat. Cheng Tiezhu and Cheng Gou also looked at the empty running when they were eating, salivating and saying that they wanted to eat a little, and said that this was the taste of their hometown.
