Faced with her reaction, Xie Yuncang was a little helpless, "Southern Yunnan is in chaos."
Ms. Qi didn't react at first. After thinking for a while, she realized what he meant, "You mean..."
"I know you are worried about Brother Lang, but coming from him is the only way to go through southern Yunnan. It is even more dangerous for him to come back at this time."
Xie Yuncang is telling the truth.
Although the Qi family is a housewife, she is not completely ignorant of government affairs.
What's more, she had given birth outside the home just to escape the war.
So she is more sensitive to this aspect than others.
Xie Yuncang's reason immediately convinced her, and she sat back dejectedly, then became nervous again, "Who will the court send? Maybe King Chen will withdraw? How long will this chaos... last?"
The war in southern Yunnan back then belonged to Chen Wang Xiao Yuping, so it was natural that he should be sent there at this time.
Xie Yuncang shook his head gently, that helpless expression appearing again.
Originally, it was not easy for him to discuss political matters like this with his family members, especially since his relationship with the Qi family was really so-so.
But when it comes to his son, and because Mrs. Qi is now much better than before, at least she looks like a normal person, he is not willing to have any quarrel with her again.
He simply told the situation that he could tell, "King Chen is still being dragged by Da Rong. He doesn't know what Da Rong means now. He actually has no intention of peace talks at all. He doesn't even mean to talk about it."
We don’t know when the war will end.”
Mr. Qi had stayed in the Summer Palace for a long time. Although he didn't know much about what was going on outside, he had generally heard about it.
It's just that she hasn't had any contact with anyone all day long. For her, these news just passed by in the wind, and they were basically ignored. Therefore, it wasn't until Xie Yuncang mentioned it that she remembered that Xiao Yu had already
It's closed at the border.
"So...doesn't the imperial court want to fight on two fronts?"
Xie Yuncang nodded lightly, and the expression on his face became solemn, "Last year and two years ago, there were many people from all over the country reporting disasters. The food harvest was originally poor, but now the war with Da Rong has been going on for several months, and a lot of food has been requisitioned.
If the ice on the canal hadn't melted, I'm afraid the front line would have eaten corn. Now the war in southern Yunnan has started again..."
He did not continue, but sighed heavily.
He is the chief assistant, so things like this are first of all placed on his shoulders. This is an unavoidable responsibility for him.
Ms. Qi rarely asked about his court affairs. In her opinion, those were all the affairs of the man's family.
When you are an official, you are the lintel and honor of your family.
This seemed to be the first time that she heard her husband talk about his troubles in government affairs, although it was only to the point.
But she still managed to get a glimpse of the difficulty here.
She didn't know if it was because of such a sudden emotion, but she suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
"I don't understand what's going on outside. Since you said it's not safe for Brother Lang to come back at this time, then don't come back yet. But...if the war is over and this matter is over, you must promise me to let me go immediately.
He's back."
Xie Yuncang also came back from his thoughts and nodded with a faint smile, "Don't worry, although I haven't been out for a long time, Brother Lang has actually done a few things. I just ask him to know
It is enough to deal with the sufferings of the people, and we have no intention of letting him really be a great master of Qingtian forever."
Mrs. Qi was relieved after hearing this. She couldn't sit still here and didn't like the current environment, so after hesitating for a while, she said in a low voice: "As for Jiang Shuhua, you don't have to be wary of me.
What she thinks and what she plans to do is her business. Now I am just a free-spirited member of the Xie family. Even if I am in the mood to go shopping and meet friends, I have no other intention."
Xie Yuncang looked at her and was silent for a while before gently nodding and saying: "Okay."
This surprised Qi. After all, she had just mentioned going out, "You...let me go out?"
"According to the laws of Daqi, no one has the right to restrict you from going out. It was my fault before, and I have already apologized to you."
Qi never expected that all this would be so simple. She stared at the man for a long time, making sure that he had no intention of going back on her word, and then stood up.
"Okay, I've drank the tea and finished talking. Can I go?"
Xie Yuncang was stunned for a moment, then reached out and gestured towards the door, "Please."
Seeing her come out, Mother Liang at the door finally relaxed the tone she had been holding, but she couldn't help but reveal a happy smile on her face, "It's right for me to be like this, madam. After all, we are husband and wife. You see, the master is right."
You still have some concerns."
Naturally, Mrs. Qi would not take such words to heart. No one knows better than the person involved what the relationship between husband and wife is.
Mother Liang naturally knew that what she said did not speak to her wife's heart, so she smiled and said: "However, it is great that my wife is willing to go out and walk now. This person must always come out for some air.
Only then can you have energy and spirit.
When I look at my wife, my face looks much better today than yesterday, and now she looks just like before."
This sentence touched Qi's heart. She suddenly thought of the gray stars on Xie Yuncang's temples. She didn't know why, but she felt her chest was congested.
This sadness is not entirely for Xie Yuncang, or more for her years over the years.
Whether it was joy or generation, resentment or hatred, it all passed in the end.
She, they, are old.
It's just that for Qi, she is old and can put down everything peacefully and live her old life at home, but for Xie Yuncang, this is impossible.
There are many other big and small things that fall on his desk and on his shoulders. They are all his unshirkable responsibilities.
"Sir, do you have an idea of the candidates to go to southern Yunnan?"
The staff saw that Mr. Qi had left, so they hurried in.
This matter is urgent, and only a few people know about it now. However, the urgency of the matter need not be made clear. Tomorrow's court meeting will definitely discuss this matter.
Xie Yuncang looked at his staff, then at the envelope in his hand, "Yeah."
"Who did the master decide?"
Xie Yuncang did not disclose it to his staff this time, but sighed and said: "How can I decide? Tomorrow, the final candidate will naturally have to be decided by His Highness. Those of us who are courtiers can only give
