Chapter 310: Reward

Huo Mingyu shakes her head, “Once upon a time in the capital I still somewhat blamed my brother for disciplining me at every turn. When I went to his side and saw that he didn’t even have a few new clothes, and that he was often busy and forgot to eat, so he just nibbled on a few mouthfuls of cold rice to pad his belly, then I realized that it was really not easy for him.

“Of course, most of the generals in the barracks, who did not enjoy the blessings there, but there is nothing to say. It’s just that sometimes I think that it would be nice to have someone close to me to take good care of him. Although I can accompany him, but there are still some things can not replace the wife ah. He refuses to take the trouble to do so, so I really can’t help it.”

Empress Lu stared, “Last time he came back, I told him about it. I should be the reason for this, I’ve spoiled your brothers by delaying marriage, and as a result, your brother has also learned this bad habit. Originally there is nothing wrong, just he is not in the capital, also can not find a woman who is in love with, can only rely on the lead.

“However, I have put the city of girls in the heart over again, the family is comparable, are some delicate girl, may not be able to stand this dull and strict character, not to mention that the emperor still need to let him guard the border, into a marriage must be able to go to the border to eat bitter. These ladies can not even take care of themselves, let alone take care of him. Without a certain amount of affection, they can’t do anything to stick around.

“If you are looking for a hard-working, but not high family – I myself do not care about the family match, but if you can door to door, obviously more can be said together, can help him. Let him marry a small family, I inwardly still feel aggrieved by him.

“Good in the camp these years so that he governs well, this time he came back, in addition to the case, to see the emperor can not stay him some days, if this period can meet a his own favorite, in all aspects and good, that is really all happy.”

“Let the Empress Dowager worry about us, we are unfilial.”

“Silly child.” Empress Dowager Lu gently stroked her head, “Auntie has always treated you as her own children, so it’s not fair to say this. Our royal family, all together not many people. When the late emperor brought down the kingdom, he let us all lead the dynasty to build peace together, we should always be so harmonious and united.”

Huo Mingyu leans into the Empress Dowager’s arms, her eyes reddening, “I missed you when I left these days!”

Empress Dowager Lu smiled and patted her back, “Let’s find a place to drink tea, tell me about the situation of women and girls in Guangxi, and how is the situation of the Flower Moon Society over there?”

……

The emperor and Huo Xiu out of the imperial garden, first back to Qianqing Palace to change clothes.

Si Xi came up and whispered.

The emperor heard, thought about it and immediately ordered: “Send it over. And then prepare some needle and thread and so on, search for some novelty knick-knacks to install.”

Four Happiness led the order.

Huo Xiu wonders, “Which family’s child?”

The emperor grabs a piece of practicing clothes and throws it to him, smilingly saying, “My little daughter-in-law.”

Huo Xiu realized, and then couldn’t help but smile.

Marquis Qingyun is also in the residence today, there are a lot of women in the house, the festive atmosphere is naturally thick. As he watches the children chattering and hanging lanterns under the porch with his hand on his back, the fourth son, Zhao Ying, arrives.

“Second brother went to the Tang family earlier?”

Marquis Qingyun nodded and turned around, “Tomorrow evening, set up a banquet and I’ll invite the two Tang Chengs to the house.”

Zhao Ying led the way. Then he said, “Will you be inviting Marquis Wei Yuan back?”

Hearing this, Marquis Qingyun slowly nodded, “Although I haven’t worked with the old Marquis Wei Yuan for a long time, we both lived in the capital, so there’s always a bit of friendship. In addition, in the future is also a relative, this courtesy of course to do. By the way, in the name of Sister Su, the Yanping County Lord solemnly invited on. As for who to invite as a companion, let sister Su use her discretion.”

Zhao Ying nodded. He also said, “I heard that the Weiyuan Marquis siblings just arrived at the residence, and the Empress Dowager sent someone to summon them. The palace has already packed up the county princess’s residence, and the empress dowager did this – I really don’t know what she meant.”

Marquis Qingyun turned around with his arms folded and glanced at him.

Zhao Ying walked towards the front of the corridor with him, and said, “The county princess and the emperor were childhood sweethearts, and it wasn’t as if no one had ever guessed that the county princess Yanping would be the queen’s choice, but then the county princess suddenly left the capital to go to Guangxi, and only then did no one mention it gradually. According to say if the palace has this meaning, earlier should be settled, if not this meaning, this moment and why also to receive the county princess into the palace to live?”

“The empress dowager has been treating the princess as her daughter, once upon a time the princess lived in the palace, and now that she is back, isn’t it normal for her to accompany the empress dowager in the palace? If you are suddenly to be more formal, wouldn’t it be awkward?” Marquis Qingyun looked at him askance, “Don’t speculate.”

“I wouldn’t dare to think too much, just ……” Zhao Ying sighed, “just this half day’s work today, outside are talking about the Empress Dowager’s favor to Yanping County Lord. Second brother, you say the palace will not originally heart to Yanping County Lord, just in order to gather the power in the hands of the second brother, so let Sister Su as the queen?”

“Thinking about what?” Marquis Qingyun glanced at him, “According to this, since the Emperor needs to enlist my Zhao family to consolidate the royal power, wouldn’t my Zhao family have the strength to bargain with the royal family? If that’s the case, then if we don’t want Sister Su to suffer, how can the palace still let her suffer? What, do you think we have the power to blackmail the palace? Or do you think that the Emperor and Empress Dowager are people who can be pinched and flattened?”

Zhao Ying was numb.

Marquis Qing Yun grunted, “No one said anything about this before, no one said anything at the time of the wedding, and then suddenly someone said something about the Yanping county princess coming back, don’t you think it’s strange? The dynasty just out of some inexplicable things, at this time to prevent some people to push the wave, you do not know? — Give me a clearer head, don’t say anything to the heart.”

Zhao Ying was speechless.

After Marquis Qingyun finished lecturing him, he paused and then looked over with his arms folded, “Now that we’re talking about it, send someone out to the streets to ask around, what kind of people are spreading this word? And these days the streets suddenly have a lot more singing and singing of the Princess’s plays, where do they come from, see if you can find the source?”

“I’ll go now!”

Only after watching Zhao Ying busily leave did Marquis Qingyun withdraw his gaze.

Zhao Su greeted Fang Qingxue, and didn’t go to the government office in the next morning, first she took a nap, and when she got up to walk around, she felt that the atmosphere was a bit subtle. She just strolled in the garden for a while, the family’s sister-in-law girls have come to find her, and without exception are talking along with her, as if they are afraid that she is not comfortable.

Of course the queen’s position is now on the board, but married into the palace, then can not freely return to her family is already a pity, the guys still do not want to let her heart more than one chink should ah!

Zhao Su know very well, also do not say anything, only pretend to hear do not understand, asked about the night out of the street attire.

Only after a couple of sentences, Xiao Ju came with joy: “Miss, the emperor sent someone to send a reward! Go and receive the decree!”
