At the beginning of November, Hua Qi brought Xu Yunxi and Hua Lin into the palace to say goodbye.
In the Qiankun Palace, Chu Yiqing personally stepped forward to help Hua Qi and Xu Yunxi up, and Hua Lin also stood up.
"How are your luggage prepared?" Chu Yiqing looked at Hua Qi and asked in a low voice.
Ever since he knew that Hua Qizhuo was leaving the capital for Border Pass, Chu Yiqing felt extremely reluctant to give up, but he also understood that this was Hua Qi's own choice. Although the land at Border Pass was bitter, he could still train and grow.
Finally Chu Yiqing agreed.
Now that it has entered November, the weather has gradually become colder. The emperor originally approved that Hua Qi and his family would not go to the border until spring after the new year, but Hua Qi insisted on going now.
Chu Yiqing knew that Hua Qi had made up his mind, so he didn't stay any longer. He just ordered someone to reward him with silk, satin, and gold and silver to cover the travel expenses on the road and the expenses after arriving at the border.
"That's almost it. The mountains are high and the roads are far away, and there are Hu Jiajun on the road together. Safety doesn't need to be considered, so I didn't bring a lot of people, just a dozen capable people!" Hua Qi said with a smile.
Chu Yiqing nodded and asked Xu Yunxi: "Have you made an agreement with your mother? Your mother is your only daughter. She should be worried when you travel far away, right?"
Xu Yunxi felt blessed and said: "Thank you very much for your concern, Queen. Although my mother is reluctant to leave me, she also knows that the country and the country are the most important thing, so she has agreed!" [
Chu Yiqing sighed, "Mrs. Xu is so righteous!"
Xu Yunxi once again expressed his gratitude.
Chu Yiqing turned his attention to Hua Lin again. Hua Lin bit her lip tightly and suddenly stepped forward to hug Chu Yiqing, sobbing uncontrollably.
"You child, do you know you are wrong?" Chu Yiqing whispered, looking her up and down, "I have lost a lot of weight after lying down for these days!"
Hua Lin couldn't help laughing, and said with tears: "I look better after losing weight. Aunt Chu, do you still remember that because I was too fat, I asked Prince Lei to prescribe medicine, but in the end, I was fine."
Vomiting and diarrhea!”
Chu Yiqing whispered: "Don't ruin Lei Ting's reputation. It's obviously because of your greed that you added weight!"
Hua Lin laughed softly.
Chu Yiqing held Hua Lin in his arms and sighed, "Your eldest brother just went, why did you go with him?"
Hua Lin whispered: "Aunt Chu, these things are all caused by me, and I also want to contribute to the Li country. What's more, the people stationed there are all good men of the Li country. Maybe they will be better."
Hua Lin will bring a good man back to Aunt Chu in a few days!"
"Hua Lin, you are talking nonsense again!" Hua Qi couldn't help but reprimanded in a low voice, "This marriage matter is all the words of the matchmaker ordered by the parents, you..."
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "As long as Hua Lin likes it, then Aunt Chu also likes it!"
Hua Lin buried her head in Chu Yiqing's arms again.
When Abao heard that Hua Qi came into the palace to say goodbye, he also hurried to Qiankun Palace.
"Brother Hua Qi!" Abao stepped forward, shook hands with Hua Qi, and touched their elbows, "When are you leaving? I'll see you off!"
Hua Qi smiled and said: "Tomorrow!"[
"So soon?" Abao was a little reluctant.
"Everything is ready!" Hua Qi said with a smile, "I'm not in the capital, so Aunt Chu will rely on you to take care of me!"
"That's natural!" Abao said quickly. After a moment of silence, he suddenly hugged Hua Qi.
Hua Qi patted him on the shoulder.
Hua Lin looked at Abao and smiled faintly.
Abao sent the three of them out of Qiankun Palace.
"Abao, I have something to tell you!" Hua Lin suddenly called to Abao.
Hua Qi and Xu Yunxi looked at each other worriedly.
"Brother, sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll just say a few words!" Hua Lin said with a smile, pulling Abao aside.
"Hua Lin, I..." Abao went to Hua Mansion that night and saw the dying Hua Lin. He felt very uncomfortable. This noisy little playmate who grew up with her, now... for him...
...He never thought of hurting anyone, but...
"Why don't you call me sister? From now on, you will call me sister, you know?" Hua Lin looked at him with a smile.
"Sister!" Abao said in a low voice.
"Hey!" Hua Lin responded with a satisfied smile on his face, "I am going to the border with my eldest brother this time. I don't know when I will come back. You can't forget me! Also, I like to eat Lucheng food.
You are responsible for the persimmons, persimmon cakes, and the snack cakes made by Aunt Chu. Every few days, you ask Aunt Chu to make some and send them to the border for me immediately, okay? If you don’t agree, I will continue
Come back to haunt you!"
Abao was stunned and couldn't help but said: "This persimmon cake is okay, it can be stored, but this pastry is just..."
Hua Lin couldn't help laughing, "I'm kidding you, you're so scared! You have to eat my share of pastries during these days when I'm not here. Eat more and grow up quickly!"
"
Abao nodded.
Hua Lin raised his eyes and looked at Abao's handsome profile, smiled again, turned and left.
Hua Qi and Xu Yunxi were waiting in the pavilion not far away. Both of them were very uneasy, fearing that Hua Lin would still be so stubborn. However, seeing Hua Lin and Abao talking and laughing together, they left again.
After walking over, the two of them felt relieved.
"Brother, sister-in-law, let's go!" Hua Lin stepped forward and took Hua Qi and Xu Yunxi's arms.
"Behave yourself!" Hua Qi scolded.
Xu Yunxi smiled and said: "That's fine, we will advance and retreat together as a family!"
Hua Lin rubbed Xu Yunxi's shoulder affectionately with her little face and said, "Sister-in-law still loves me!"
Xu Yunxi laughed softly.
Hua Qi finally felt relieved when he saw that Hua Lin and Xu Yunxi had also settled their differences.
Abao stood in the corridor, watching Hua Qi and the others leaving the palace chatting and laughing, and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy in his heart.
His beautiful childhood has passed, and those who accompanied him through his childhood have now parted ways.
Chu Yiqing held Rou Fu and looked at him not far away, and asked in a low voice: "Yingqian, how is the relationship between A Bao and the emperor recently?"
Yingqian quickly replied: "It's still the same!"
Chu Yiqing sighed.
After Yan Wan left last time, Abao didn't say anything when he came back. He continued to study, review memorials, and help Li Huang manage state affairs. But the more this happened, the more Chu Yiqing worried about him. It might be better if he had an attack!
"It seems like we haven't had a barbecue for a long time!" Chu Yiqing whispered.
Yingqian nodded, "It's been a long time!"
"Tell me that I want to go out for a barbecue and take my three children with me!" Chu Yiqing said.
Yingqian responded quickly.
Beside the creek in the suburban villa, the water is gurgling. Although the grass has withered and the trees have lost their leaves, making it look a little bleak, Chu Yiqing's interest has not diminished. After the waiter has prepared everything,
Then she sent everyone away. She held Roufu in her arms, sat on the rocking chair, and directed the three of them to barbecue.
Wearing a white dress and wearing a crown, Blessing knew how to love beauty at a young age. Looking at the sparks, he hid aside and said with a smile: "Mom has started again. She likes to instruct dad to follow us. She is also a
He is the emperor, one is the prince, and the other is the county prince, so my mother can arouse her easily!"
Chu Yiqing dug out a spoonful of egg yolk and gave it to Roufu, stared at Blessing and smiled, "If you keep grinding your teeth here, I will tell your father what happened in the study room yesterday!"
Blessing was stunned for a moment, then he quickly stuck out his tongue, brought the meat skewers over, and said with a smile, "Mom, Blessing is the most filial person, I will give you the kebabs, do you want some spicy ones?"
Li Huang couldn't help but raise his eyes and asked: "Study? But Blessing is naughty again?"
Blessing quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, now that Enqing is in charge of me, how can I dare to be naughty without being preached to death by him!"
Chu Yiqing smiled faintly, and seeing that A Bao had been silent, he asked: "A Bao, are you tired from studying recently? Why don't you say a word?"
Abao raised his eyes and smiled, "I'm concentrating on baking eggplant slices for my mother, she likes to eat them most!"
Chu Yiqing looked at the burnt and oily eggplant slices, couldn't help but nodded, glanced at Li Huang again, and said: "Abao, you haven't used a sword for a long time, especially the Longxiang sword technique.
, Mom wants to see it!"
Abao was stunned, glanced at Li Huang intuitively, and nodded, "Mom, let me and daddy play tricks on you!"
As Abao spoke, he took out the green jade sword from his belt. This jade sword was a gift given to him by Li Huang back then.
When Blessing saw the jade sword, he immediately shouted: "Dad is partial. When my brother was two years old, my father gave him the jade sword. I am six years old, and my father didn't give me anything!"
Li Huang smiled and said: "You don't have enough things in your palace? Don't you have any rare things?"
Blessing just looked at the jade sword with hot eyes and kept clamoring for the jade sword.
"Brother, if you like it, I'll give it to you!" Abao hesitated and handed the jade sword to Blessing.
Blessing was stunned, and happily took the exquisite jade sword in his hand and looked at it non-stop.
Li Huang looked at Chu Yiqing worriedly.
This jade sword is Abao's favorite, and he always carries it with him. In the past, no one could "touch" it, but now he gave the jade sword as a blessing...
"Blessings, return the sword to your big brother!" Chu Yiqing whispered.
I originally wanted to cheat and refuse to give the blessing, but seeing Chu Yiqing’s serious expression, I had no choice but to purse my lips and hand it back to Abao.
"I really gave it to you. I'm old now and can't use it! But you have to promise me that you will practice martial arts well with this sword and you won't be able to mess around anymore!" A Bao said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Blessing nodded quickly and glanced at Chu Yiqing secretly.
Chu Yiqing nodded.
Blessing cheered, and then realized that his meat skewers had been burnt, so he hurried to save the meat skewers.
Li Huang stepped forward and said to Abao: "Abao, daddy has something to tell you!"
Abao nodded, and the two of them walked slowly along the stream.
"Mom, what are dad and brother doing?" Zhu Zhu couldn't help shouting, "What secrets are there that I can't hear?"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Do you listen to national affairs?"
After hearing the blessing, he quickly covered his ears and said: "I don't want to listen, but if there is something interesting, I would like to hear it!"
Chu Yiqing couldn't help laughing, "How old are you, do you know how to play?"
Blessing smiled and said: "Mother, if I am also interested in national affairs, mother and father should worry!"
Chu Yiqing was stunned and looked at Blessing, only to see a naughty smile on Blessing's face. He didn't feel the shock that these words brought to Chu Yiqing at all.
Also, from ancient times to the present, how many brothers have fought to the death for the throne, not to mention the distant ones, just the two generations of emperors of the Li Kingdom... Blessings may seem naughty, but they are wise and foolish. Fortunately!
Li Huang looked at Abao's resolute face and said with a smile: "You have grown so big before I knew it. I still remember the first time you learned the Longxiang Sword Technique from me..."
Abao nodded, "I was also very happy at that time, I finally had a father!"
Li Huang paused, stepped forward and put his arms around Abao's shoulders, "Do you still blame me for what happened to Qu Yanwan?"
Abao shook his head, "I don't blame my father. I also know that my father is for my own good. In fact, I have already made my own choice. Even without my father, she and I..."
Li Huang said: "Huang Huang has found out your relationship and is going to send people to the capital to control Qu Yanwan. I am doing this for you and for her! If you are destined to meet each other in the future!"
Abao was stunned, "Huang Huang?"
Li Huang nodded, "I don't want the woman you like to become someone who is hostile to you, so I can only act first and drive her away from the capital to put an end to Emperor Luo's thoughts!"
Only then did Abao understand and whispered, "Daddy!"
"It would be great if you could understand my father's painstaking efforts! Are you willing to take back the jade sword?" Li Huang asked with a smile.
Abao was stunned and couldn't help laughing: "It turns out that my father and mother thought I was still angry, so they gave the jade sword to my brother!"
Li Huang was stunned: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not, because Blessing likes that jade sword and has been rubbing it with me for many days. I have been reluctant to part with it, but the jade sword is too small and I have no use for it. Today I finally made up my mind to give it to him. If he can
I stopped playing around and practiced my sword diligently. The jade sword my father gave me has finally found a good owner!" A Bao said with a smile.
When Li Huang heard this, he felt relieved. He stepped forward and patted Abao on the shoulder and said, "I thought you had a knot in your heart and were angry with dad..."
"Dad, don't worry, I will be a good emperor!" Abao whispered.
Li Huang sighed, "But Abao, to be a good emperor, you have to sacrifice too many things!"
Abao smiled and said: "Of course I know, and I also know that dad is not a good emperor. Good emperors are not afraid of their wives!"
Li Huang patted Abao on the shoulder, "You kid, you actually taught me a lesson!"
Abao giggled and started playing with Li Huang.
Chu Yiqing hugged Roufu and watched from a distance. When he saw the two of them playing around, Chu Yiqing dropped a big stone in his heart. He couldn't help teasing the little Roufu in his arms, "Roufu, have you seen it? Your father and
Big brother is reconciled!"
As soon as Blessing heard this, he ran away.
Chu Yiqing quickly called him, "Why are you running?"
"I'm afraid my eldest brother will ask me if I want to go back to Jade Sword!" Rou Fu's shouting came from a distance.
Chu Yiqing laughed dumbly.
Two years later, in spring, thirty large cargo ships slowly docked at Chuhan Wharf.
Thousands of boatmen immediately rushed forward to unload the cargo.
"Manager Wu Da, Manager Li, we have gained a lot this time!" A man who looked like a shopkeeper came forward and looked at the goods unloaded from the ship and said with a smile.
Wu Lao laughed and said: "These spices and silks are very cheap now. Look at these things, they are not as valuable as our boatload of vegetables and grain!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes widened immediately, "Has the price dropped again?"
Boss Wu nodded, "No, not only did the price drop, but the Luo people heard that our country was rich, and they all wanted to get on the boat and come here. Look, that boat is full of people!
"
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, slapped his thigh and said: "You said you are still alive to see such a day. Back then, that person went to Luo Country with all his strength, but now he comes to our Chu Han..."
"Don't underestimate Chu Han, we are now a land of plenty!" Boss Wu raised his eyebrows, took the robe from his young apprentice, and stepped forward to join Li Dayong.
"Yes, everyone in Chu Han is extremely rich!" The shopkeeper followed like a pug.
"I asked, what do you do? Want to transport goods or something?" Boss Wu couldn't help but ask when he saw the shopkeeper following him.
"Director Wu Da, it's like this. I heard that you are going to the capital to celebrate the birthday of the current empress. I was wondering if you could take me with you to the capital to see the world and meet the legendary Queen of Agriculture.
?Look, this is one thousand taels of silver, you accept it!" the shopkeeper said, and quickly thrust a silver note into Mr. Wu's hand.
Boss Wu glanced at the shopkeeper and sneered: "I don't care about your bank notes. Besides, when we go to the capital, we are going to the capital to express our sincere thanks to the Queen and congratulate her on her birthday. What do you mean by going? Queen
I don’t know you either!” As Mr. Wu said, he suddenly remembered something and said, “By the way, Emperor Luo also sent an envoy to congratulate the Queen on her birthday. They were also on that ship. If you just simply
If you want to see the excitement, just go and see what the Luo envoy looks like!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, he thought about it. The people who are following Empress Chu now don't care about this thousand taels of silver. It seems that they can't go to the capital and can't see the Queen. It's better to go and take a look.
He is also an envoy from the Luo Kingdom!
The shopkeeper made up his mind and returned to the dock.
On the pier, a manned merchant ship just docked. Six followers stepped off the ship. In the middle was a tall and tall man escorting him. The man was about thirty years old and wore bright red mud gold python pattern arrow sleeves.
, The jade-white face has slanting sword eyebrows at the temples, slender and upward phoenix eyes, a high and straight nose bridge, and slightly thin lips. She has a graceful appearance and a charming appearance.
"Hey, this envoy from the Luo Kingdom is quite handsome!" The shopkeeper was fascinated by what he saw.
Shangguan Yunyi got off the boat and looked at the busy dock, his eyes downcast. He was finally back. After ten years of absence, he finally set foot on this land again!
Not far behind Shangguan Yunyi, a man and woman who looked like a couple came down. The man had a jade-white face and a beard. He seemed to be in his forties. The woman was wearing a green short jacket with a right gusset.
She has black billows, a plain cotton skirt, and only a plain silver hairpin on her head. Although she is old, she can still vaguely see her charming appearance back then.
"After all, A Bao is already sixteen years old, so he should be married, right?" That woman was Concubine Qing. She was talking to Li Yue beside her and set foot on the land of Li country...
