All the materials sent by Chixi were sent to the frontier, and the frontier soldiers were finally able to eat a good meal of meat, and the medicinal herbs were enough.

Huo Liancheng clapped his palms excitedly and laughed loudly: "Okay, well, with these grains and medicinal materials, our soldiers will be able to fight and conquer everything!" ”

Just when he was overjoyed, the eunuch who came to deliver the grain reminded him: "General Huo, the emperor has sent General Xi to serve as the commander, so that you can fully cooperate with the dispatch and strive to return to the court within a month." ”

"What?"

Huo Liancheng, who was still overjoyed, suddenly frowned, and said angrily: "The emperor sent Xi Xiangduo to be the boss?" And let General Ben fully cooperate? ”

Who doesn't know that he and Xi Xiangduo have not dealt with each other since childhood?

The two of them have fought since childhood, and the most annoying thing is that he has never defeated Xi Dazhuang!

Even once!

The chief eunuch sighed lightly and said: "All the materials transported by our family today are donated by Mrs. Xi, Mrs. Xi has scattered all the family wealth, General Xi has made great achievements in battle, and he is the best at dispatching troops." Our dynasty can't stand the attrition, and the emperor hopes that it can be resolved quickly. ”

"Is it a donation from Mrs. Xi?"

Huo Liancheng looked shocked, and then pointed to the grain truck with no end in sight and said excitedly: "You're not kidding, these things are all donated by Xi Xiangduo's wife?" ”

"Our family doesn't dare to say anything, everyone knows about it."

The big eunuch nodded, and said with admiration: "Mrs. Xi is really a heroine among women, and she took out all her family wealth to support the border soldiers, and said that she wished you a safe and triumphant victory as soon as possible." ”

Although Huo Liancheng had some opinions on Xi Xiangduo.

But he admired this kind of woman who had the courage to scatter her family wealth, he looked up at the grain truck with no end in sight, and said sourly: "Xi Xiangduo is really a blessing, when he left Kyoto City in poverty, he didn't expect to be on the list of such a rich daughter-in-law." ”

"Not really."

Chu Bicheng, who had been silent, opened his mouth.

The crowd turned their heads in amazement.

Chu Bicheng said lightly: "General Xi's wife, Chixi, is from the same village as me, she lost her mother since she was a child, was mistreated by her father and stepmother, and her life was hanging by a thread when she married General Xi. They only started to make a fortune in business three years after they got married, and they were not the rich people on General Xi's list. ”

Huo Liancheng blinked, a little heart attack, but he couldn't hold back his curiosity: "That Mrs. Xiang Duo, is it really so righteous?" ”

Since he was born in the countryside and has suffered a lot, it stands to reason that he should not be so generous.

Chu Bicheng nodded seriously, and said solemnly: "Mrs. Xi is indeed righteous and kind, after making a fortune, she led the surrounding villagers to work to earn silver, and she also took care of food every day, and the salary she gave was very fair, and even opened a school for the children in the village to read and learn to read, and even set up a free bookstore in the county seat of the prefecture, as long as you want to read and learn, you can enter the free book." If you don't understand something, you can discuss it with each other, ask the bookstore manager, and donate books to the college free of charge. ”

The more Huo Liancheng listened, the more he felt that this woman was not simple.

I feel more and more that Xi Dazhuang really took shit luck to find this good woman.

Chu Bicheng told Huo Liancheng and the people around him all the things that Chi Xi had been doing.

Hearing this, Huo Liancheng's heart was sour.

How could he not find this good woman?

The night before Xi Dazhuang left, Chi Xi took out all the clothes, shoes and socks that he had learned from Chu Bicheng's mother in the depths of the big coal mountain and handed them to Xi Dazhuang.

She chuckled and said, "I won't say a lot of things, and if nothing happens, you'll be back in a month or two." These clothes, shoes and socks are made by my own hands, you remember to wear them. Be careful, don't rush. Yesterday I have been granted permission by the emperor, our family's business is running as usual, if necessary, remember to write to me, I will prepare it for you. ”

Xi Dazhuang looked at the smiling Chixi, couldn't help hugging her tightly, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I know for my husband." When the husband comes back, let's have another child! ”

"Okay."

Chi Xi's eyes flashed slightly, and then he nodded with a smile.

Now An An is almost a year old.

Her body is well nourished and she can indeed have another child.

With Xiaoling here, she doesn't have to worry about the pain of giving birth, and if she doesn't have a few more, she can't live up to this unique condition.

Xi Dazhuang got up and left before dawn, although no matter how light his movements were, Chi Xi, who had not fallen into a deep sleep all night, still felt it, but she did not get up.

Because she knew that her father-in-law didn't want to wake her up, let alone see her cry.

Pond Creek is also not as fragile as it used to be.

She got up at dawn and ate breakfast in an orderly manner, took An An, sewed clothes, and read the account books, as if Xi Dazhuang had never left.

The queen announced Chixi into the palace again.

Seeing the queen again, Chi Xi clearly felt the change in her.

The queen, who was still sad last time, smiled this time, like a spring girl, her already beautiful face became fairer and more tender, and her soft eyes were bright, like beautiful jade being polished and becoming dazzling.

"Mother, you're so good-looking."

Ikexi praised sincerely.

The queen mother touched her face like a twenty-eight girl, and said with a smile: "This is thanks to the noble lady cream prepared by Mrs. Xi, the effect is really good, and the complexion of this palace has become better with the naked eye during this time." ”

"The courtiers can see that the queen mother has been in a good mood recently and is radiant."

The smile in the queen's eyes was even worse, as sweet as honey.

After Concubine Rou was removed from the title of concubine and confined to the Chengyu Palace, the emperor came to her bedroom, apologized to her, poured out his neglect and guilt to her over the years, and loved her with a soft fragrance.

Since that day, every time the emperor comes to the harem, he comes to her bedroom.

The emperor looked at her more and more beautiful, and his eyes couldn't take his eyes off.

This made her shy and satisfied, and her heart was sweet, like when she first married the emperor.

She only hopes that the days of being favored like this will last longer, the emperor will be more infatuated with her, and his sincerity to her will be longer.

The emperor is ruthless, she has known it for a long time.

Over the years, I have received a lot of cold reception.

But she was still unwilling.

After all, the emperor is her husband, the father of her children, and the man she truly loves.

Chixi allocated a month's amount to the queen's mother in the palace, and the queen generously rewarded Chixi with a lot of things before letting Chixi go.

However, just as Chi Creek was about to leave the palace.

met the Empress Dowager Guo.

As soon as Miao'er saw Empress Dowager Guo, her face changed instantly, and she trembled and took Chixi forward to salute.

Empress Dowager Guo stood in front of Chi Xi without saying a word, looked at Chi Xi with heavy eyes, and asked coldly after a while: "You are General Xi's wife, Chi Shi?" ”

Chi Xi knew that Empress Dowager Guo was dangerous, and she also knew that she had been overwhelmed by the emperor and her husband recently, but she didn't expect to be unlucky enough to be stopped halfway.

Chi Xi replied respectfully: "Empress Dowager, the courtiers are Xi Chi, the wife of Xi Xiangduo. ”
