Xiao Yi walked for three days, and King Zhennan sighed for three full days, with a lot of gray hair on his sideburns. Finally seeing Xiao Yi and the others came back, he called all three members of his family over.
This time, King Zhennan saw that Xiao Yi had lost all his anger, and even looked a little listless. After his son and daughter-in-law saluted him, he asked them to sit down.
"Brother Yu, come on, grandfather has someone make orange juice for you." King Zhennan called Xiao Xiao Yu over and hugged him on his lap, "Drink and see, is it sweet?"
Holding the celadon cup, the little guy took a small sip, his eyes curled up with a smile, "Sweet!"
Seeing Jinsun's cute appearance, King Zhennan laughed until deep lines of laughter appeared on his forehead, but then he thought of something, looked sad, and asked again: "Brother Yu, if grandfather is not at home, would you Will you miss your grandfather?"
The little guy has always been good at coaxing people, so he took another sip of orange juice, nodded and responded.
"Our brother Yu is so good!" Zhennan Wang praised, then raised his eyes to Xiao Yi who was sitting by the window, "Ni...cough, A Yi, you are going to be a father again soon, don't be self-willed in the future Now, don’t think about other people before doing things, but also think about Brother Yu and Princess Shizi! The Zhennan Palace will be handed over to you... "
Zhennan Wang was talking endlessly, Nangong Yue felt that there was something wrong when she heard it, and raised her eyebrows suspiciously at Xiao Yi, meaning, what happened to the father? Why do you speak as if you are explaining the funeral
Xiao Yi shrugged innocently, saying how did he know if he was being haunted? Or, took the wrong medicine
Seeing Xiao Yi's unreliable appearance, Zhennan Wang secretly sighed in his heart, seeing that this rebellious son has passed the age of the crown, and still looks so unreliable, how can he look like the Marquis of An Yi? !
I used to take care of him, no matter how lawless this rebellious son is, there will always be elders suppressing him, and when he goes to the capital as a hostage, I don't know what kind of trouble this monkey boy will turn into? ! ... Don't toss away the family property of the four generations of Zhennan Wangfu!
The more Zhennan Wang thought about it, the more he felt that the prospects were not optimistic.
At this time, Xiao Xiaoyu drank up the orange juice in the glass, looked at King Zhennan expectantly, "Zuzu, I want more!"
The little guy stared at King Zhennan with black and white eyes without blinking, and King Zhennan felt his eyes a little sour. When he went to the capital, he would not see Jinsun again!
"Come on, grandfather will pour it for you." Zhennan Wang personally poured another glass of orange juice for Xiao Yu, and said in his heart: For the sake of Jinsun, I have to hold on!
Thinking about it, the King of Zhennan regained his strength and repeatedly told Xiao Yi to be cautious in his actions in the future and to take into account the overall situation. Instead, Xiao Yu started to yawn upon hearing it.
Seeing that the little guy was sleepy, King Zhennan hurriedly urged: "Brother Yu is tired, take him back to rest quickly."
Xiao Yi followed good example and left immediately with his wife and children.
The three of them had just left the courtyard where the outer study was located, when Zhu Zi hurried up to meet him, and whispered something in Xiao Yi's ear.
Xiao Yi frowned, gave an order, and Zhu Zi hurriedly led away.
Nangong Yue said with a smile: "Ayi, Brother Yu and I will go back first, you can go get busy."
"Just let him wait, don't worry!" Xiao Yi smiled casually, and personally sent Nangong Yue and Xiao Xiaoyu back to Bixiaotang's room, and then slowly went to Shu Zhi in the front yard hall.
Wang Jinyou was already waiting in the hall anxiously. He came to the Zhennan Palace today to ask to see the King of Zhennan, but he was half-forced to invite him to the Bixiao Hall as soon as he entered, saying that Prince Xiao wanted to see him. I don't know why Xiao Shizi called him here. Could it be that King Zhennan didn't want to see him, so he let Xiao Shizi deal with him? !
Wang Jinyou watched Xiao Yi walk into the hall in amazement, and bowed respectfully, "I've seen you, my son."
Xiao Yi came to the chair of the grand master at the head with strides, lifted his robe and sat down.
"Your Majesty Wang is so polite." Xiao Yi said with a smile, "Please sit down." As he spoke, he picked up the hot tea brought by the maid.
Wang Jinyou sat down, looked at Xiao Yi's expression, and said after deliberation: "My lord, the new emperor ascended the throne at a young age. Advice one or two... "
"Lord Wang!" Xiao Yi interrupted Wang Jinyou impatiently, pointing out the opponent's intentions directly, "As long as Dayu doesn't always come here for trouble, I have no interest in Dayu Jiangshan in Southern Xinjiang!"
Wang Jinyou's face froze immediately, and he couldn't speak anymore.
He has been in the officialdom for more than ten years. No matter how dissatisfied the ministers are, they are always polite on the surface. How can anyone talk like Xiao Yi!
Although both parties are well aware of some things, they still have to take care of face. Once the words are broken, how can they test each other's bottom line? !
This Xiao Shizi is really as rumored, arrogant, domineering, and doing whatever he wants!
Wang Jinyou's face turned blue and white, and he was extremely embarrassed.
He also picked up the teacup, and after taking a sip of tea, he finally calmed down again, thinking: A few days ago, Zhennan Wang Mingming was polite to him, and it seemed that there was room for change. Why is Xiao Shizi's attitude today so different? Very different? !
Could it be that Xiao Shizi didn't mean Zhennan King to call him here, but he cut off the beard behind Zhennan King's back
Could it be that he wants to take power
The more Wang Jinyou thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. After clearing his throat, he said righteously: "My lord, I think this matter should be decided by the prince."
Xiao Yi stared at Wang Jinyou with great interest for a long time, which made Wang Jinyou feel a little uneasy, racking his brains to figure out how to round this situation.
Xiao Yi pursed his lips and smiled, this Lord Wang and his father are quite compatible, both have the brain power to write a playbook, so let them make trouble.
"Okay." Xiao Yi stood up, dusted off his robe, "Then please go back, Mr. Wang, I'm sorry."
ah? ! Wang Jinyou was dumbfounded, he didn't expect Xiao Yi to dismiss himself so easily...
He just watched Xiao Yi strode out of the hall in a foolish way, and walked away without hesitation...
Xiao Yi went straight back to his own yard, the room was quiet, Nangong Yue and Xiao Xiaoyu were still sleeping, both mother and son had their eyes closed, their long comb-like eyelashes cast a faint shadow on their fair and jade-like cheeks.
Just looking at the peaceful sleeping faces of his wife and children, Xiao Yi's heart calmed down, as soft and sweet as cotton candy.
Suddenly, he felt itchy and wanted to draw the scene in front of him.
He held his chin and looked at the big and the small with a smile.
A warm and peaceful atmosphere permeates the room, and even time seems reluctant to move forward...
Compared with the tranquility of Bixiaotang, Wang Jinyou who returned to the post station became more and more at a loss. Xiao Yi's unexpected straightforwardness made Wang Jinyou wonder if Zhennan King deliberately used the mouth of Xiao Shizi to express that he did not want to go to Wangdufu. Political...
Wang Jinyou was so irritated that his head hurt, he wondered if he should send a post to the palace to ask Zhennan Wang to see him, but after his post entered the palace, it was like a muddy cow, Zhennan Wang only felt that the talisman had come, and pretended that he hadn’t received anything , I plan to delay it for a day if I can.
On the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, as soon as Wang Jinyou's second post was delivered to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, Fu Yunhe hurriedly came to Bixiao Hall to ask Xiao Yi to return to his command.
Fu Yunhe came thousands of miles away, but he couldn't hide the wind, frost and exhaustion on the baby's face, which was full of wind and dust, but a pair of black eyes were piercing.
He couldn't wait to explain Xiye's military affairs clearly in one go, then blinked, put his hands on Xiao Yi's desk, stretched his neck pitifully at Xiao Yi and said, "Brother..." Should we let him go to get married? ! Marry a wife to celebrate the New Year!
How Xiao Yi couldn't understand Fu Yunhe's mind, Fu Yunhe talked about getting married this year all day long, and now everyone in the Southern Border Army doesn't know that General Fu is rushing to get married this year.
As the big brother, he will naturally help the younger brother!
The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth curled up in a friendly arc, but Fu Yunhe's heart skipped a beat, he straightened up vigilantly, and thought: Big brother laughing like this often means that someone is going to be unlucky! This time the unlucky person won't be me, right
"Little Hezi, don't worry, your marriage will not be delayed." Xiao Yi patted Fu Yunhe's shoulder with a smile.
Fu Yunhe was overjoyed, biting his handkerchief and weeping with joy: "Brother, you are really my dear brother!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yi said casually: "In two days, you and Wang Yushi will go to the capital."
What with what? Fu Yunhe was dumbfounded, and blinked slowly, Wang Yushi? ! Who is Wang Yushi? !
Xiao Yi smiled brighter, and continued: "Little Hezi, anyway, you're going back to the capital to prepare for your marriage with Miss Han, so why not take care of the business as well."
"What's the business?" Fu Yunhe was confused and almost jumped. He just came back from Xiye, why did he have another errand for no reason!
Xiao Yi didn't seem to notice Fu Yunhe's strangeness, and nonchalantly told about Wang Yushi's visit to Nanjiang a few days ago, and letting Fu Yunhe go to the capital was naturally negotiating with Dayu court on behalf of Nanjiang.
"..." Fu Yunhe had already learned about the death of the first emperor and the ascension of the new emperor, but now he knows that the envoys of Dayu came to invite King Zhennan to the capital to assist the government. While speechless, he looked at Xiao Yi's eyes More complicated and weirder.
Is the elder brother big-hearted or forgetful? Could it be that he has forgotten that he is the grandson of Princess Yongyang and the clan of Dayu!
The eldest brother asked him to go to the capital to contact Dayu Chaotang instead of the Zhennan Palace, which—
Is it really suitable? !
The corners of Fu Yunhe's eyes twitched, and he couldn't imagine the expressions of those people in the capital when they saw him appearing in the Golden Luan Hall as an envoy from Southern Xinjiang...
"Brother, are you..." Fu Yunhe blinked, and looked at Xiao Yi "innocently", trying to persuade him to think carefully.
Xiao Yi folded his arms on the desk, and looked at Fu Yunhe with a smile, his smile was more innocent than Fu Yunhe's, "Little Hezi, you don't want to go to the capital?"
The implication is, do you still want to get married
"Go!" Fu Yunhe nodded like a pounding garlic, and flew over, hugging Xiao Yi's thigh, begging sincerely, "Brother, let me go! Who else can I do for this job!"
Fu Yunhe raised his head and endured the tears in his eyes, and said in his heart: In order to get married, no matter how hard it is, you have to endure and endure it! ... I must go to Cousin Xia to comfort and comfort myself later!
Xiao Yi shook his hand, his eyes were extremely helpless, as if to say, if you really want to go, I will do as you wish.
Poor Fu Yunhe left with gratitude, sighing in his heart, there are still two days left, he has to stay in the city and talk to cousin Xia!
Why-
A mournful sigh disappeared in the winter breeze. Two days later, Fu Yunhe reluctantly left Luoyue City again. This time he went north to the capital. Dayu's envoy Wang Jinyou accompanied him.
Of course, the news of Wang Jinyou's departure also reached the ears of King Zhennan, and King Zhennan wondered if he was dreaming. He was already mentally prepared to go to the king's capital as a hostage, and he only thought that he could delay it for a few days, but he didn't expect that the sky would change again in just a few days? !
Simply inexplicable? !
Could it be that Xindi changed his mind? !
The King of Zhennan asked the boy who came to report the news if Wang Yushi had any strange behaviors in the past few days. Only then did he know that he was called to Bixiaotang by Nizi two days ago.
Zhennan Wang was shocked, but also took it for granted.
Yes, besides this rebellious son, who else would it be! I don't know what "good things" this Nizi did to make the envoy leave the southern border obediently... The envoy returned without success, and I don't know if it will provoke Dayu's wrath
Thinking about it, King Zhennan couldn't help but feel worried, but it's a done deal, and he has nothing to do... By the way, he doesn't know anything, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, so he should go fishing.
Zhennan Wang let go of his mind, took the fishing rod and ran to the lake to fish...
After Wang Jinyou left Luoyue City, Zhennan Prince's Mansion completely calmed down. Zhennan King, who was busy fishing every day, stopped moaning and sighing, and the maid who served beside him secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After Laba is the new year, in the middle of the twelfth lunar month, the flavor of the new year in Luoyue City is getting stronger and stronger, and everyone from the palace to Bixiaotang is busy preparing for the new year.
In order to let Nangong Yue raise her baby, Xiao Fei almost took over half of the affairs of the palace. Early this morning, she came to Bixiao Hall as usual.
Before she had time to talk about the affairs of the mansion, she was confused by Nangong Yue's question.
"Sister Fei, have you considered it?"
Nangong Yue said these words without beginning or end, Xiao Fei was stunned for a while, and finally realized suddenly. The sister-in-law is asking her opinion on the marriage.
Xiao Fei half-closed her eyes, her eyes flickered, hesitated for a moment, looked straight at Nangong Yue, and said seriously: "Sister-in-law, can you give me a few more months?"
This time, Nangong Yue was stunned, with a look of surprise in her eyes.
Xiao Fei's words were still inconclusive at first glance, but Nangong Yue found something unusual.
All along, Xiao Fei's attitude towards marriage has been a bit ignorant, as if as long as the elders are in charge, the family background and character are suitable, she can choose anyone.
But this time, Xiao Fei's behavior was different from before. She actually said that she would give her a few more months... Could it be that she has become enlightened
Xiao Fei's temperament has always been clear about black and white. If she really has a decision, she should tell herself immediately, that is to say, Xiao Fei is still a little confused and doesn't understand her own thoughts.
But she has this willingness to think about it, which is already a big leap forward. It seems that the palace should be able to hold another wedding next year.
Nangong Yue suppressed the smile on the corner of her mouth, took Xiao Fei's hand affectionately, and said in a warm voice: "Sister Fei, there is a saying: men are afraid of entering the wrong line of work, women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and the big event in a lifetime is only once in a lifetime. If you think about it carefully, you won't regret it for the rest of your life, so don't worry."
My sister-in-law is always so kind and caring to me! Xiao Fei's heart warmed, and she looked at Nangong Yue with emotion, her mood fluctuated.
"Thank you sister-in-law." She collected herself and promised solemnly, "Sister-in-law, after three months, I will definitely make up my mind, and I will not disappoint my sister-in-law." If it is not settled, it will not only worry the sister-in-law, but also implicate the younger sisters...
Looking at Xiao Fei's clear and serious eyes, Nangong Yue couldn't help laughing, imitating her and nodding solemnly: "Sister-in-law believes in you."
Nangong Yue couldn't help but want to reach out and rub Xiao Fei's hair, their sister Fei is so cute!
Xiao Fei smiled, with one point of firmness in her jet-black eyes, two points of embarrassment, and three points of bewilderment.
She has to think about it...
