At this time, the emperor had already changed into his civilian robe and walked slowly to the chair on the side.

Taking the tea cup from the hand of the eunuch on one side, Zhu Jinghong carefully handed it to his father, and said at the same time: "I heard the princess recite a poem before, called poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a ......person in a spring boudoir dream."

"At that time, the princess said it wildly, and in the eyes of her son, it was only fourteen words, which didn't mean anything......"

"But under the city of Hami, looking at the soldiers who died in our army, my son remembered this sentence at that time, thinking that the families of the soldiers who died in the war were still looking forward to them coming home, and the joy of the great victory disappeared in an instant......

"At that time, the son couldn't help but think, if the son had a good day that day, how sad the queen mother and Baochai would be, and they should really have palpitations when they thought of this!"

Zhu Jinghong said a lot this time, all of which were content sent with feelings, which made Zhu Xianming look at him a little higher.

It's just that Zhu Jinghong's last sentence made the emperor's heart uncomfortable.

Isn't Lao Tzu worried about you?

"So, you're not going to go to the northwest?" Zhu Xianming said slowly.

Although the growth of his youngest son satisfied him, as the emperor, Zhu Xianming still asked this sentence, which was also intended to test Zhu Jinghong's mind.

I only heard Zhu Jinghong answer categorically: "I won't go if I kill my son!" ”

His merit is too great, and now he naturally wants to reduce the heat for himself, he has been thinking about this matter for a long time on the way back to Beijing, and now he should come out when he opens his mouth.

Without commenting on Zhu Jinghong's words, Zhu Xianming asked with a smile: "What are your plans next?" ”

"The first thing is that Mr. Son, lest a villain chew his tongue and think that his son can't do that!"

Zhu Xianming just took the tea, and after only taking a sip, he was choked by the words of the tiger and wolf, and coughed three times in a row before stopping.

Ahem......

Clearing his throat, Zhu Xianming asked, "I heard that you returned to Beijing this time, and you brought two women with you!" ”

"Wrong...... The son brought three! ”

Of course, Zhu Xianming knew that he had brought three, and what he wanted to talk about was the two Qiqige.

Ignoring Zhu Jinghong's gags, Zhu Xianming asked directly: "Don't say that the girl from the wood department, you still bring the Dzungar woman with you, don't you know that she is the daughter of Alabutan?" ”

"Of course my son knows!"

"You know you're still taking her with you?" Zhu Xianming frowned and asked.

"My son is!"

"You ......"

Zhu Jinghong's response was really concise and to the point, and it seemed irrefutable.

"Dad, my son has always said that there must be a pattern to see things, why don't you listen!"

This sounds familiar...... Zhu Xianming said secretly in his heart.

"As long as you sit firmly in the world, it doesn't matter whose daughter she is, whoever your son wants......"

"Don't say it's just Alabutan, it's the daughter of the king of heaven, and if you want it, your son has to give it!"

Heavenly King Lao Tzu? I'm not talking about that...... Zhu Xianming felt weird.

"Bastard, what nonsense!" Zhu Xianming scolded.

"My son's words!"

"Forget it, for the sake of your meritorious work, this matter is up to you!" Zhu Xianming didn't want to care.

Keeping the daughter of a Junggar traitor by her side is of course a capital crime, but here in Zhu Jinghong, it can be big or small, and the result depends on the emperor's mood.

"Go to Kunning Palace and say hello to your mother!" Zhu Xianming waved his hand.

He still had to read the notebook for a while, so he didn't have time to talk nonsense with Zhu Jinghong, so he waved his hand and motioned for his youngest son to get out of here.

"Yes!"

After leaving the main hall, it was not until he walked out of the Qianqing Gate that Zhu Jinghong was really relieved.

He seemed to be relaxed and witty just now, but in fact, every sentence was deliberated on the road, and he even practiced his demeanor and tone.

"Thirteen Master ......"

Hearing the familiar greeting, Zhu Jinghong looked up and saw Lu Yuxin and others rushing towards him.

Behind Lu Yuxin and the others, although most of them were acquaintances, Zhu Jinghong also saw some new faces.

Every year, the dragon guards have to select guards, and it is normal for new people to appear, so they have to move around a lot and new people will become old people.

"Yuxin, 100 households?"

When Zhu Jinghong left Beijing, Lu Yuxin was only promoted to the team, and in less than a year, he was promoted to another level, which has to be said to be very powerful.

The Dragon Guard is a place to reserve generals, and the hundred outdoor releases here are thousands of households or generals, which is already a very high position.

"Luck, luck......"

After greeting some other people, Zhu Jinghongfang said: "I have to go to Kunning Palace, and I'll talk to you later!" ”

"The thirteenth master will go slowly, and the ministers will come back to bother another day!"

Zhu Jinghong left, but he didn't leave, just because he was still in the midst of everyone's discussion.

"I have to see the thirteenth master today, and I really have the true character of a hero......"

"The husband should be like this......

"Lu Baihu, you said that you invited the Thirteenth Master to play polo a few days ago, will he come?"

Hearing someone ask, Lu Yuxin replied: "That's nature!" ”

Don't look at Lu Yuxin's firm answer, in fact, he doesn't have a bottom in his heart, and he can't be sure if he can invite Zhu Jinghong.

Besides, here in Kunning Palace, the queen is talking to Baochai.

If it was in the past, the queen would have called three sons and one daughter together, and then held a family banquet in Kunning Palace, but today she didn't do that.

There are two reasons for this, one is that the queen is not in good spirits and does not have the heart to prepare; The second is that she was so angry with the fourth and sixth children that she didn't want to see these two guys at the moment.

"So the Duke of Qiguo didn't get back face?"

Facing the queen's curiosity, Baochai replied with a smile: "Their old lady told her daughter-in-law that this matter was their fault first, and now it should be a long lesson, and there is no need to embarrass others......"

There is no doubt that this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are chatting about gossip, which is something that has been unavoidable since ancient times.

I only heard the queen say: "She still knows how to be old and measured, and she is much better than the one in the Jia family!" ”

can be listed with the old lady of the Duke of Qiguo, and the Jia family is only Jia's mother.

Baochai didn't answer this, after all, the crown princess Yuanchun is from the Jia family, and it's not good to say bad things about others.

"Why hasn't this kid come here yet?"

As soon as the queen's voice fell, she heard Zhu Yunsheng's voice outside: "Mother...... Brother Thirteen is here! ”

Before the queen could answer, she heard another voice outside: "Third sister, what are you doing?" Such a big person still doesn't understand the rules? ”

"Rules? Brother Thirteen, do you still know the word rules? The most unruly person in this palace is you! ”

"Presumptuous, you talk to your brother like this?"

Listening to the noise outside, Yang Qingyin smiled and said, "Look at it...... When I came back, I was disturbed! ”

Although she was complaining, Baochai still clearly felt the joy in the queen's heart at this time.

"Queen mother, daughter-in-law go out and have a look!"

From Baochai's face, Yang Qingyin also saw the color of longing, so he said, "Go ahead!" ”

"Yes!"

Lifting the skirt, Baochai saluted and walked out of the hall, moving so fast that the hairpin ring swayed, and there was a "ding" sound between each other.

"This girl...... It's so frizzy, too! The queen smiled as a mother's standard.

Besides, outside the main hall, Zhu Jinghong was standing at the foot of the steps, theorizing with Zhu Yunsheng on the steps.

"When I came back the first day, you were looking for your brother, didn't you? You're such a good sister! ”

"Who told you to talk to me first?"

"I can't tell you yet?"

Seeing the brother and sister bickering, Daiyu and Xiangyun, who were following Zhu Yunsheng, both laughed.

Especially Daiyu, who was staring at Zhu Jinghong at the moment, wanted to step forward to answer but didn't have the courage, which made her feel deeply annoyed while being happy, and directly scolded herself in her heart for being useless.

However, Xiangyun was a little more "down", and stepped forward to distinguish: "Thirteenth master, you are a big hero who stands up to the sky, and you are afraid of being laughed at when you talk about it with a weak woman like a princess!" ”

Sweeping his gaze to Xiangyun, Zhu Jinghong looked up and down a few times, and then said, "Yun girl, you have grown up......"

After a pause, I heard Zhu Jinghong continue: "Even you came to teach me a lesson!" ”

Xiangyun hid behind Zhu Yunsheng and said softly: "Thirteenth Master, don't be ignorant of good people's hearts, I'm thinking about your reputation!" ”

Seeing Zhu Jinghong's gaze moving with Xiangyun's movement, Zhu Yunsheng suddenly became alert, thinking that his brother had another attempt.

However, Zhu Jinghong's gaze only stayed on Xiangyun for a short time, and then he swept to Daiyu on the side, and found that the latter was also looking at him.

Although Daiyu hurriedly looked away, her "stupid" eyes were still keenly captured by Zhu Jinghong.

This girl is obviously missing me too......

Just as Zhu Jinghong wanted to step forward and talk to Daiyu for a few words, Baochai walked out of the hall and drew his attention.

Standing at the door, looking at her husband who had been absent for a long time, Baochai thought that she would be extremely excited, but in the end she didn't say a word.

It's not that she doesn't want to speak, it's that she's choked up a little and can't speak.

The husband and wife looked at each other in pairs, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.

When the two of them looked at each other affectionately, Zhu Yunsheng and the three of them observed them and talked about each other.

"Brother Thirteen, what's wrong?"

As soon as Zhu Yunsheng finished speaking, he heard Xiangyun reply: "Could it be that he has been out for too long and can't recognize Sister Bao anymore?" ”

At this time, Daiyu interjected: "Yun girl, if you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful that Sister Bao will punish you!" ”

However, the next moment, Baochai smiled lightly and said: "Maybe Yun Yatou is right, there are so many new people and things in the northwest, it is normal for him to forget me!" ”

Zhu Jinghong walked up the steps, came to his wife and said, "Baochai...... I have been thinking of you day and night, and I have forgotten you! ”

"You also deceived Yinglian and them, but I didn't believe a word!"

Reaching out to grab Baochai, Zhu Jinghong pressed her hand to her chest and said, "I said this out of sincerity, I don't believe you come to touch ......"

Although it is a husband and wife, there are so many people around, and it is too much to be so intimate, Baochai hurriedly broke away.

"What are you doing!" Baochai reprimanded in a low voice.

Looking at Baochai with a red glow on his face, Zhu Jinghong instantly gave birth to a hot breath, but in the end he was suffocated back.

"When you come back, you will quarrel with Sheng'er, and you can do it, hurry into the temple...... The Queen Mother is still waiting for you! ”

After saying that, Baochai turned around and entered the hall, greeting Zhu Yunsheng and a few people, and Zhu Jinghong then followed up in the hall.

"When the son knocks on his mother, he wishes that the queen mother will be healthy and live a long life!"

Looking at the changed son in front of him, Yang Qingyin looked calm and said with concern: "Get up, get up quickly!" ”

After Zhu Jinghong got up, Yang Qingyin came to him and looked him up and down at the same time.

"It's not hurt, is it?" Yang Qingyin asked.

Zhu Jinghong replied: "Mother, my son listens to you, he has never been on the battlefield since then, how can he be injured!" ”

"You're embarrassed to say, who told you to go to the battlefield? There are so many officers and soldiers in the imperial court, why do you need to do it? ”

"Do you know how worried my mother was when she learned that you were on the battlefield?"

"If you have a good one, won't your mother ......"

The queen's accusation was full of his mother's love, which moved Zhu Jinghong deeply, and he didn't dare to be flamboyant for a while, so he could only listen honestly and comfort the old mother.

Of course, Baochai was not idle, he was smoothing the queen, handing silk handkerchiefs and serving tea, and the three of them were very busy for a while.

After a long count, the queen sat back in her seat and asked about her son's experience in the northwest.

In this regard, Zhu Jinghong is so interesting and what to say.

Just at this time, Zhu Yunsheng also slipped in, she came to listen to the story, and so did Daiyu Xiangyun, who came in with her.

Zhu Jinghong has also heard many things in the northwest told by others, but this does not prevent him from telling others.

And just like that, half an hour passed quickly, and it was time for lunch.

At this time, the emperor also rushed over, and everyone except the queen went out to greet him.

Because of the emperor's presence, the atmosphere at the scene became a lot more restrained, and Zhu Jinghong, who was talking eloquently, became less talkative.

"Your Majesty, the crown prince has arrived!"

Although he was not invited, it was a natural thing for his son to come to greet his mother, so the prince and the two rushed over.

In addition to the two of them, Yuan Chun and Chen Zhi also came over, which immediately made the atmosphere of this Kunning Palace even more weird.

Originally, Zhu Xianming was not bad, but when the prince and King Rui arrived, his face was not good-looking.

Although the Rui Wang couple tried their best to liven up the atmosphere, in the end it did not have any effect, and instead lived themselves into a joke.

After a dull lunch, the emperor asked Zhu Jinghong to go to Ningshou Palace, after all, he rushed back to pay respects, and he had to show his face in front of the old man.

Zhu Jinghong had wanted to leave for a long time, and when he heard this, he took Baochai to leave.

The two of them left, and the prince and the king didn't stay long, so they left together very interestingly.

After the children left, the emperor and his wife went to the warm pavilion, and at the same time waved off all the palace maids and eunuchs.

"These two bastards, they're embarrassed to come here!" Zhu Xianming said angrily.

"That's pretty much it, they're like this, and you're responsible!"

"I ......"

Zhu Xianming wanted to defend himself, but in the end he didn't say much, because he knew that he was indeed responsible.

The two were silent for a while, and Zhu Xianming suddenly asked, "Have you asked about the thirteenth daughter-in-law, what did she say?" ”

"I asked, and she admitted that she instructed it!" Yang Qingyin replied casually.

"Oh? What does she mean by that? Zhu Xianming frowned and asked.

Instructing Jin Yiwei to do private matters is strictly speaking, which is also a taboo, but Zhu Xianming has no idea of pursuing it.

It was already clear how the situation was, and he just didn't understand Baochai's intentions in doing so now.

So Yang Qingyin replied: "She was afraid that the matter would make a big deal and damage the royal face, so she instructed Jinyiwei to do it!" ”

Hearing this, thinking of the fourth and sixth children who were fighting in public, Zhu Xianming couldn't help but sigh: "Although she is young, she has such a heart, which is really commendable!" ”

"It's just that I have to suffer more grievances!" Yang Qingyin replied.

Although it has been figured out what is going on, in order to protect the royal face, this matter can only be handled coldly, so no one will be punished for the rumored incident.

Zhu Xianming sighed: "The old thirteen, this kid, although he doesn't like to study and study, his vision for choosing a wife is very accurate, and he recognized the girl of the Xue family that day, and I also said that he is a ghost, and now it seems that he is ...... This kid is really discerning! ”

Yang Qingyin didn't like to hear this, and immediately retorted, "What's wrong if you don't like to read?" And don't let him be the ruler of the official, and besides, even if he doesn't know how to write and ink, won't he become the pillar of the country? ”

Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Zhu Xianming immediately changed the topic and asked, "What are you going to do with that niece?" ”
