Chapter 419: Mother, I'm Back!
Mrs. Lan's movements were very fast, and the next day Aunt Rong and Lan Shuyu were sent away, and then the husband and wife carried the gifts to the Dingguo Mansion. In fact, if he could, Lan Feibai didn't want to face the people of the Dingguo Mansion at all. But he still has to mess around in the court, and if he wants to be promoted, he must apologize.
This time, Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai did not turn people away, and politely said some scenes, and the matter was superficially over. But Lan Feibai understands very well that this is just a matter of face, who will put their likes and dislikes on the bright side in the officialdom? He is ready for a bad career in the future.
After they left, Tang Shuyi said to Xiao Huai: "I originally thought that after Yuming's wedding, we would go out for a walk, but now that Jianing is pregnant, we have to postpone it." ”
"Then wait until the baby is born." Xiao Huai said.
The two were talking, and a familiar voice came from outside, "Mother, I'm back!" ”
When Tang Shuyi heard this, he hurriedly got up and walked out, and saw Xiao Yuming wearing silver armor, standing in the courtyard heroically. Seeing her and Xiao Huai, Xiao Yuming lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, "Mother, father, my son is back!" ”
Tang Shuyi hurriedly helped him up, and then looked at him carefully, "I have grown taller and stronger." ”
Xiao Yuming smiled, he has indeed grown a lot taller this year. At this time, Xiao Huai said: "Come into the house." ”
As soon as the three of them entered the house and sat down, Xiao Yuzhu came over, and after a while, Xiao Yuchen and Jianing also came, and the family sat together and talked happily.
Most of them are Xiao Yuming saying, and everyone is listening. Xiao Yuming's experience this year can be described as wonderful. It turned out that almost all the bandits born in the country of Rouli because of the war were almost all picked by him.
Xiao Yuming's growth is clearly visible, and Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai are both pleased. However, all growth comes with dedication. Xiao Yuming said this year's experience lightly, but when he thought about it, he knew that it was not so simple.
Xiao Huai is not in the Northwest Army now, will all the officers and men in the Northwest Army obey him as a young marshal? Definitely not. Therefore, it is not easy for him to gain a firm foothold in the Northwest Army, let alone suppress bandits. However, this is what he will have to go through.
After dinner, Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai called Xiao Yuming to the study alone.
"Are there any injuries?" Tang Shuyi asked.
Xiao Yuming grinned, "It's all a small injury, it's not serious." ”
Tang Shuyi was a little unconvinced, but she couldn't pick up his clothes to look at it, so she said, "Let the doctor check your pulse tomorrow." ”
"Okay." Xiao Yuming said obediently, he knew that Tang Shuyi was not worried about his body.
"How's it going on in the northwest?" Xiao Huai asked.
"It's generally stable, but there are one or two big hearts." Xiao Yuming said.
"What about the Yong King?" Xiao Huai asked.
In the northwest, the Yongwang is the most unstable factor.
Xiao Yuming: "King Yong doesn't see any change for the time being, just ......"
"Just say it." Xiao Huai said.
Xiao Yuming: "King Yong seems to have the intention of sending his daughter into the palace. ”
When Xiao Huai and Tang Shuyi heard this, their brows furrowed into pimples. King Yong's status is special, and the reason why Xiao Huai's attack on Rouli Kingdom was so smooth at the beginning had a lot to do with King Yong's response. Later, King Yong's throne remained unchanged, and he still had many soldiers and horses in his hands. If there is a change in him, maybe there will be another tough battle to fight.
After a while, Xiao Huai said: "King Yong will enter Beijing a few years ago, and I will meet with him and say, if he is really obsessed, then fight." ”
It's just that this battle can't be fought if it can't be fought.
After chatting for a while, Xiao Yuming left, and Tang Shuyi said: "Everything depends on what the emperor says first."
Xiao Huai took her to the bedroom, and said, "Don't worry, we shouldn't be wrong." ”
As long as Li Jingyi does not change his mind, they will be his strong backing.
Early the next morning, Li Jingyi asked the eunuch to go to the Dingguo Mansion to deliver a message and summon Xiao Yuming. Xiao Yuming did not delay and followed the eunuch into the palace. When he arrived at the imperial study, Li Jingyi was sitting behind the table and watching the folds, and when he saw him, he immediately stood up and shouted, "Second brother." ”
But Xiao Yuming still saluted him in a proper manner: "The minister greets the emperor." ”
Li Jingyi immediately helped him up, "Second brother has worked hard. ”
Xiao Yuming was helpless by his second brother, but he couldn't say who made Li Jingyi the emperor.
The two sat down, and Xiao Yuming talked about his experience in the northwest this year, but it was not as casual as at home. But in the end, he still said: "King Yong may bring his daughter with him when he enters Beijing this time." ”
When he said this, his eyes kept looking at Li Jingyi, and what he meant couldn't be more obvious. Li Jingyi was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Second brother, don't worry, my mind has always remained the same." ”
Xiao Yuming didn't expect him to be so straightforward, after all, he is now the emperor, and his identity is different from the past. Even when I talk to him myself, it's not as direct as before. However, this also shows that at least so far, he is still the same Li Jingyi as before.
The two chatted for a morning, Xiao Yuming had lunch in the imperial study before leaving, and in the afternoon he went to Xie's house with gifts. first met with Old Man Xie and Second Master Xie, and the two of them were very happy to see his changes, and they talked for a while before arranging for him to meet Xie Xihua.
Seeing that Xiao Yuming had grown a lot taller, Xie Xihua was stunned, and then quipped: "It is said that free-range breeding grows strong, it seems to be true." ”
Xiao Yuming smiled, and then took out the gifts he brought to her, which were all gadgets he usually collected. Xie Xihua's eyes were shining and he was playing with them one by one, although these things were not worth much, they were showing his intentions one by one.
Xiao Yuming also told her about the interesting things that happened in the past year. Xie Xihua listened with a smile, and then asked, "Are you injured?" ”
Xiao Yuming wanted to say that he was not injured, but when the words reached his throat, he swallowed again, and heard him say, "It's all a small injury." ”
When Xie Xihua heard this, he asked, "Where is the injury?" ”
"Yes on my body, and on my arm."
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing his sturdy forearms and the striking scars on them.
"Yikes!" Xie Xihua exclaimed in surprise and wanted to reach out and touch it, but in the end he held back.
She asked, "Does it hurt?" ”
Xiao Yuming waved his hand, "It doesn't hurt, it's just a lot of blood." ”
Xie Xihua had distress on his face, and thought that he would prepare some medicine for him to nourish his body for a while. Then, when Xiao Yuming left the Xie Mansion, he was followed by a carriage, which was filled with medicinal herbs to nourish the body.
A few days later, Second Mrs. Xie took Xie Xihua to the Dingguo Mansion and sent a few sets of clothes and shoes. Tang Shuyi couldn't help but joke when he saw it, Xiao Yuming said: "I didn't expect my son to be so loved by my father-in-law and mother-in-law." ”
