Gu Qingci led the two children back to Gu's house, while Li Cheng sent the three of their mothers there. He only showed his face and had a meal with him before returning.
He has to be on duty every day, so he has no time to relax.
As usual, Gu Qingci still planned to stay at Gu's house for a few days. I also miss my second wife, so I decided to stay for a few more days.
In addition, the two children around me have never lived in my mother's house, so it's fun to bring them here to play when they grow up, and they can also strengthen their relationship with their cousins.
Feng Rusi has been raised by Gu Qingci's side for several years, and she has long been no different from her own child, and Feng Rusi has been cut off from the Feng family since Li Chengze took him over.
Now it's not a big deal to follow Gu Qingci and recognize the Gu family as his natal family.
Of course the second wife knew that there was a kid adopted by her daughter, but she hadn't seen it much before. This time she looked closely, and saw that although the kid was not very old, he was well-mannered and well-mannered. The set of regulations is very good. He was born with a white and handsome appearance, which is really likable.
Afterwards, I asked people what books they had read, and Feng Ru seemed to answer them all.
Lord Hou had passed the test before, and then praised him very much, saying that he is a good seedling.
The second wife was also happy when she heard it. She is a smart person and never thought it was raising children for others. She was afraid that her daughter would be upset if she didn't like it. The friendship between the two is not good, so they specially asked Gu Qingci.
Gu Qingci didn't have that kind of thought at all, raising a child would be so difficult, and she didn't lack those things in her house.
Especially now, she really likes Feng. Feng Ru seems to be sensible and obedient, and he can take care of the eldest sister. The two children have a very good relationship.
The second wife is very relieved of her daughter now, the only thing is that she is worried that she will not have a son, and that she will not stand on her feet.
"Does my aunt have any ideas, or is there dissatisfaction?" When there were only two people in the room, the second wife asked her daughter.
Gu Qingci also murmured to her mother, saying: "My husband didn't urge me at all, he likes the elder sister, it's just my grandmother has an opinion."
The second wife can understand the thoughts of the old lady of the Li family. How can one not be in a hurry as an only son of the Li family for several generations.
So she had a good time to persuade Gu Qingci a few words, let her hold on tighter.
Gu Qingci nodded and said he got it.
There are not many juniors in the Gu family, there are two young masters, both from the big house, and the girl is only the one born by the big grandmother, one year old, a few months younger than the big sister.
All the children were younger than Feng Rusi, and Feng Rusi took them to play together, looking like a big brother.
Among those who can walk, the eldest sister is the youngest, so she is obedient and obedient, holding Feng Rushi's hand.
Gu Qingci is a spoiled guest when she returns to her mother's house, so she lives naturally and comfortably.
Eating, drinking and having fun is not bad at all. Gu's family has a large location and a wide area. Going around the garden, drinking tea, and listening to operas are all good pastimes.
Unexpectedly, on this day, something happened.
After the court, Master Hou came back with a solemn look on his face.
The eldest lady naturally wanted to ask, but what happened.
Lord Hou didn't hide it, and of course he couldn't hide it if he wanted to.
Word of that must have spread quickly.
So he said: "Yan Kingdom and Qiang Kingdom joined forces and violated the border of Daye. Daye has lost two cities in a row."
The Da Furen was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Why is it so sudden, I didn't hear any wind before?"
Lord Hou frowned tightly, revealing the deep wrinkles on his forehead, and said: "I am afraid that the Yan Kingdom and the Qianghuo Kingdom have planned for a long time, this time they really caught Daye by surprise. I didn't hear the news until this morning. Today, the Holy Majesty has appointed General Zhenbei to lead the troops to reinforce, and I only hope that the situation will not get worse."
When the war broke out, people naturally panicked. The Great Ye Dynasty had been peaceful for so many years, but when it happened suddenly, the first reaction of many people was to panic.
Although the emperor was not very old, he was calm and resolute, and took measures immediately without procrastination.
Because of these incidents, Gu Qingci stayed at Gu's house for three days without staying any longer, and brought Feng Rusi and her eldest sister back to Li's house.
Li Chengze was awarded the post of editor of the Hanlin Academy after the museum was disbanded, and he was often called to him by the emperor, and he was very fond of him.
When Gu Qingci returned home, he hurriedly asked Li Chengze about the matter, asking if the situation was serious
Li Cheng didn't coax her, but told her in detail.
Gu Qingci frowned when she said that.
"Don't worry too much, the emperor has sent troops to reinforce, and the situation will ease soon."
He knew the ability of that elite soldier, so he wasn't too worried.
In fact, Li Cheng had some opinions on Yan Guo a long time ago.
The monarch of Yan Kingdom is not bad in wrist and mind. In just ten years, he transformed Yan Kingdom from a weak country to a strong country. It has to be said that he can be called a powerful monarch.
As early as when they came to Chao Daye, they actually had some other signs, but at the beginning, the two countries had some cooperation and went to the Julien Mountains, so those conflicts that did not show up were temporarily put aside. on the side.
Now, Yan Guo turned his gun on Daye, and everyone woke up from their innocence.
Guessing that this matter must have been premeditated and arranged by Yan Kingdom for a long time.
In the capital, the most tense situation is naturally in the daily court. Ordinary people don't really feel it. After all, the capital is far away from the place where the war is fought, and they don't have a deep personal feeling for a while.
What Gu Qingci was worried about was actually Li Chengze, fearing that he would get into trouble in the court.
Therefore, Li Cheng asked her every day when she came back.
Daye's military strength is not weak, especially after the emperor equips an elite team with good weapons, it can be called invincible.
Now this entire formation of 5,000 people has been taken away by General Zhenbei.
Sure enough, a month later, there was a good news that the country of Yan and Qiang had been resisted and retreated by a city.
Of course, it was also General Zhenbei who was brave and resourceful. The strength of the two countries was not bad, but he took advantage of the loopholes because of their discord.
The emperor looked at the notebook written by General Zhenbei himself, and laughed a few times.
Good news came from the first battle, which was a great boost to morale. The emperor smiled and swept away the heavy haze before, and the courtiers heaved a sigh of relief.
However, the war is not completely over yet, and no one dares to take it lightly.
However, the emperor wrote an imperial decree of appreciation and rewards in the past, which can be regarded as a peace of mind for the army.
At home, Li Cheng talked about this with Gu Qingci.
Gu Qingci was also thankful, and said: "It's okay that nothing major happened. It sounded like a bluff at the beginning. I haven't had a good night's sleep for a few days. After all, Yan Kingdom is not a thing. I forgot Daye How did you help them back then? I saw that the prince and princess didn't look like a good person before, but now it seems that they are right!"
Li Cheng smiled and didn't tell her about the past of the two countries. It's not something that can be explained clearly in a few words.
But the strange thing is how did the Yan Kingdom cooperate with the Qiang Kingdom
Not to mention that there was a princess in the Daye Dynasty who married her to the Qiang Kingdom. Over the years, the relationship between the Qiang Kingdom and Daye seems to be friendly on the surface, and they live in peace.
This is indeed a bit puzzling.
Li Chengze didn't even think about it, guessing that the only possibility was that the Yan Kingdom was worried that they had no chance of winning, so they offered some conditions for the Qiang Kingdom to agree to participate.
But these are not important now, the relationship between Qiang and Yan is completely broken.
"Sir, what are you thinking?"
Gu Qingci called out to Li Chengze, seeing what he was thinking about, he couldn't help asking.
Li Cheng stroked her hair and shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just something about the court."
Then the two brought the topic to the elder sister again.
"She is good. Every morning, a servant girl takes him with her, and she seems to play with her in the afternoon, and she doesn't bother me much." Gu Qingci said.
Gu Qingci took her to eat together in the morning, took her to sleep with her for a while at noon, and asked her to draw and play for a while. In fact, the elder sister of time has her own way of playing, and she is not free at all, let alone have the time to make trouble for Gu Qingci. up.
He is a child who is so reassuring that he can no longer be reassuring.
Just when Gu Qingci thought that the war over there should calm down like this.
But I didn't think about it, things were completely unexpected.
General Zhenbei was suddenly poisoned and died.
There was chaos in the barracks, and the morale of the army was scattered.
Yan Kingdom took the opportunity to counterattack, and Daye retreated again and again.
When the news was sent back to the capital, the emperor was furious!
The general died in his camp, so he must have been a spy.
This matter needs to be thoroughly investigated. This time, the emperor ordered Yu Xian and Li Chengze to lead 20,000 elite soldiers to the border.
There are also two officials from the Criminal Ministry.
The task of Li Chengze and the two officials was to thoroughly investigate the ghosts and spies in the camp, and investigate the cause of the death of General Zhenbei.
Because the edict was read out too suddenly, Li Chengze was taken aback for a moment, but he accepted the edict immediately after recovering.
He didn't have much time to prepare and think, and he had to set off the next day after he got the will, so Li Cheng only had a little time to inform his family.
The old lady was naturally the first to inform.
The old lady cried a lot holding her grandson, and she was very reluctant to let go. Li Baode was also reluctant to part with his son, but he couldn't cry like an old lady. He could only pat his son on the shoulder, telling him to be careful.
When we got to the west, we told Gu Qingci.
Gu Qingci couldn't accept it at all, and started crying while covering her handkerchief.
Haunting him and not agreeing, not letting him go.
Li Cheng had no choice but to let her vent. This was the first time he had watched the little girl throw things and lose her temper without education.
reluctant.
Li Cheng remembered the first time when Gu Qingci was like this, she was still a stranger to him at that time, so he could bully her calmly and without emotion, scaring her for a while, afraid of herself.
Now he can't help but laugh at himself, this girl is already his responsibility and concern.
"Okay, okay, be good, I'll be back soon, okay?" Li Cheng lowered his head to coax her.
Gu Qingci bit her lip and fell silent. The tears were still falling, but Li Chengze wiped them away.
Gu Qingci was so anxious because she knew it was an imperial decree, no matter how much she made a fuss, she couldn't stop Li Chengze from leaving, that's why she broke down like this.
"I'm good, then you must come back sooner." Gu Qingci said this while crying.
