Li Qing pushed open the door and stepped into the courtyard.
"First, sir?" Wanling looked at him in a daze, rubbed his eyes, as if he couldn't believe the scene he saw.
"It's me, I'm back." Li Qing said with a smile.
Only then did Wanling realize that it was not a dream. Her pretty face was full of surprises and jumped towards Li Qing.
"Sir, you're back. Wanling misses you so much." Wanling stared at him in a daze, her eyes full of waving.
"I miss you too." Li Qing wiped away her tears, "Don't cry, it's not good."
"Yeah." Wanling nodded slightly, her little face blushing.
After a while, Lianxiang Hongxiu came out of the room and saw her husband coming back, she was shocked and happy.
"gentlemen!"
"Yeah." Li Qing smiled, "Go and go into the house and say."
When he came to the living room to sit down, the three girls held their cheeks and looked at him so foolishly, making him feel embarrassed.
"Ahem...what, did you cook dinner?" Li Qing smiled, "I'm still hungry."
"What do you want to eat by sir?"
Mr. Li Qing said, "Don't be too rich. Hongxiu has braised pork, Lianxiang has pork rib soup, Wanling has fish soup."
"I'll do it now." The three women got up and ran to the East Kitchen to start working.
Dingling Bang...
The deserted courtyard in the past suddenly became lively and full of fireworks. Li Qing leaned on the chair and felt very comfortable.
When the meal was ready, it was already dark.
Li Qing was really hungry, and he just showed off his food when he caught a delicious meal.
"You guys eat too, don't just watch me eat."
"We are not hungry." The three girls said with a smile, looking at him quietly, looking at him with a satisfied look on their faces.
Li Qing was so funny that he continued to eat and drink.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Qing had enough food and drank, and praised: "The cooking skills are good, and it is better than what is made in the restaurant outside."
Wanling said happily: "Sir, I like to eat it, and I will make it every day in the future."
Li Qing smiled bitterly, "I'll leave tomorrow."
Wan Ling's smile froze, and her love for the red sleeves was also filled with joy.
"Sir, you're going to go on a business trip again?"
"Well, it's hard to disobey the emperor's order, it's impossible not to go!" Li Qing sighed.
"How long will it take?"
Li Qing thought for a while, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back before the New Year, maybe I won't need to end the year."
He had never fought a war, nor even seen the ancients march, so how long did he know how long this trip would take?
The three girls were in a low mood and finally had a home. They had a home in their hearts. Not long after a good life, Li Qing left for half a year. He had just returned one day and was about to run away for another half a year. They felt really uncomfortable.
Wanling took the lead in putting her emotions away and Zhan Yan said, "The emperor values sir, this is a good thing, and official duties are important."
"Sir, don't worry about the three maids, we will take good care of ourselves." Hongxiu clenched his pink fist and encouraged, "Sir, he will definitely become an amazing official in the future."
Lianxiang's eyes were red, "Sir, you must take good care of yourself when you go out."
They are like little wives, giving their husbands a farewell message.
Although the girls are just maids, Li Qing never treated them coldly and respected them very much. The ordinary official masters are just like this.
In their hearts, they have long regarded him as their own man.
Seeing the atmosphere a little sad, Li Qing smiled and said, "Sir, I finally came back. I didn't see you crying, so I'm happy."
The three girls nodded and smiled, which looked very beautiful.
After chatting for a while, the three girls got up to clean up the dishes and then fetched water to clean their bodies.
Li Qing took the opportunity to take a cool breeze and leaned on the recliner under the fruit tree to watch the moon.
Above the sky, the bright moon is in the sky.
Li Qing blew the night breeze and enjoyed the rare tranquility.
After a while, the three girls brought the table, lit candles, and placed candied melon seeds and fruits. The four of them ate and chatted, laughing constantly.
...
Early in the morning.
Li Qing got up and pushed open the door. The dining table in the living room was placed with buns, eggs, rice porridge, and pickles... It was so rich, it was all made by several girls themselves.
There was a clean face wash, cotton squid, and salt on the clean loofah pulp.
A few girls got up in the middle of the night and started cooking, and they have been busy until now.
Li Qing naturally knew about these things, but he did not stop them. They would feel better if they asked them to do something.
"Sir, hurry up and wash up and have a meal."
"Yeah, OK."
Li Qing washed up, sat down to eat, and the atmosphere was warm.
...
The palace, the royal study.
As soon as Li Qing arrived, Xiao Guizi sent the imperial edict.
Zhu Yuanzhang put down his movements and looked up and said, "We have already said hello to the funds and rewards. Just go to the Ministry of Revenue to receive the map. The map of the Mobei grassland is not perfect enough, and the exploration work must continue.
I also asked the old man to investigate, and the treatment will be based on what you have set before, so I will take care of you."
"Sinicide."
"Also, tell Zhu Di to let him do it well and we will have a great reward for fighting this battle."
Don't worry, I will definitely deliver the cake you drew to him... Li Qing bowed, "I obey the order."
Zhu Yuanzhang reminded, "You are the military supervisor of this battle and have the right to inquire about military affairs. Don't be afraid of your hands. If you should break it, break it, and if you should break it!"
I don’t know anything, I dare to command blindly... Li Qing had no choice but to bow: "I understand!"
"Well, there is nothing else around." Zhu Yuanzhang added, "This time, Duke of Song, Feng Sheng, was the head coach, and King of Yan, Zhu Di, was in charge of the practical matter."
Li Qing was stunned and immediately understood the essence.
To put it bluntly, Feng Sheng is a 'mascot', and Zhu Di is the one who is actually responsible for the war.
After leaving the palace, Li Qing immediately received the funds and rewards, and then went to the Duke of Song's mansion to announce the imperial edict.
After leaving the Duke of Song's mansion, he came to the Pacification Office without stopping to fulfill his promise.
Li Qing learned the skills of painting cakes from Lao Zhu, but he was more kind than Lao Zhu, and he could cash out all the cakes he drew.
The subordinates received generous rewards and were all smiling and happy.
Li Qing struck while the iron was hot, "The emperor has an order to continue the investigation work, and the treatment is the same as before. Are you willing?"
"I am willing to do it."
When they just got the money, they were very motivated. How could they not be willing to go outside the border to suffer, but the rewards are so generous that they will not suffer.
Li Qing nodded with satisfaction and said to Liu Hao and Wang Qian, "Stay for one day and leave Beijing early tomorrow morning."
"Human job obey."
The two bowed and said yes, Wang Qian asked, "Sir, are you not going this time?"
"Go, I'll leave today."
"Let's go with the Lord!" Wang Qian said, "There's a care on the road."
"Yes, sir." Liu Hao said.
"I have something else. Just do your part and don't worry about me." Li Qing waved his hand, "Okay, it's rare to have a day of leisure. Let's go back to reunite with your family. Have a rest and do your best."
"Yes, I'm leaving."
After they left, Li Qing went to the inner hall again and sued Mao Xiang and several colleagues.
After working hard, it was already noon.
After going home for lunch, he handed over the remaining reward to the three girls, "It should be eaten, it should be flowers, don't lose weight by starving yourself. Sir, I like meaty and soft."
"I remember it."
The three girls agreed with red eyes.
Wanling sniffed and said, "Sir, the original money at home is enough, and you can't use it at all. You should take it with you when you are poor and rich."
"I have it." Li Qing smiled and said, "Besides, it's natural to spend money on business trips, and it's too much of a loss to spend your own money."
The three girls were so funny that they were laughing, and the sadness of parting became a little weaker.
Li Qing smiled and said, "Life well, I will come back after finishing the toll."
A few simple explanations, Li Qing rode a high-headed horse and rode his horse and whipped it.
He did not go with Feng Sheng, and tens of thousands of troops were sent to troops, and food, grass, equipment, etc. needed to be prepared in advance.
Although Zhu Di was responsible for this matter and Li Qing didn't need to worry about it, he had to pass the imperial edict first.
He galloped all the way and changed his horse without stopping. It took him more than half a month before he rushed to Peiping again.
This time, Li Qing did not have any disguise.
Flying fish suit, embroidered with a spring knife, holding an imperial edict, stepped into the gate of the Yan Prince's Mansion.
