Chapter 419: Farewell
On the 16th day of the first month of the 22nd year of Jian Rong’s reign, the Yong Wang Fu was in a miserable state.
The Emperor issued a holy decree, making Zheng Yu the deputy general of the Western Qing Province, and Zheng Ji returned to the capital for another term.
This meaning of the emperor did not reveal a little with the empress dowager and the king of Yong, wait until they know, the holy decree has been issued.
Yong Wang ran into the palace, holding the Empress Dowager to the Taiji Hall to cry to the Emperor, but also failed to make the Emperor change his mind.
Li Zhenbao accompanied Zheng Yu to receive the imperial decree and then came to the palace to accompany the Empress Dowager.
The King of Yong ignored Li Zhenbao, glared at her, and left Ci Ning Palace to go back to the Yong Wang House.
The empress dowager is already a little bad, Li Zhenbao did not go after the Yong Wang, but stayed with the empress dowager.
Li Zhenbao stayed in Ci Ning Palace for two days, gently and softly persuaded the empress dowager, said her own yearning for the sky and land of West Qingfu, want to build a rather large-scale border bazaar there, and Zheng Yu’s patriotic feelings …… and guaranteed that every one or two years will go back to the capital to live for a period of time.
The empress dowager cried, “I am so old, who knows how long I can live? Once you leave, I don’t know if we can still meet.”
Li Zhenbao quietly said, “Tell Imperial Grandmother a secret, I went to see Master Yu He that time and specifically asked about Imperial Grandmother’s health. Master Yu He said that Imperial Grandmother is of a high life expectancy.”
In this era, living to the age of sixty was a long life. For high longevity, one must be at least seventy or eighty years old.
This was indeed what Grandmaster Yu He said, and Li Zhen Bao did not say it right away just to broaden the Empress Dowager’s heart at this time.
The words of Grandmaster Yu and the Empress Dowager were absolutely convincing. Thinking of the possibility of living for more than ten years, she was happy again.
She asked, “Did Master Yu He really say that?”
Li Zhenbao wrapped her arms around her and said, “Of course it’s true, this kind of thing granddaughter how dare to lie. Imperial grandmother remember, eat more of what master Yu and sends. If the old monk forgets, have Jiang Er Sister go to the Newspaper Temple to ask for it ……”
Empress Dowager nodded and asked again, “Has Bao’er asked if the Emperor has a high life expectancy?”
Li Zhenbao honestly said, “Asked, the old monk not only didn’t say, but also scolded me for not knowing the depth.”
The Empress Dowager choked. To ask this question herself is also not knowing the depth of the matter. Can the emperor’s life expectancy be a casual inquiry? Only loving her son, she still asked without thinking.
The empress dowager mood stabilized, Li Zhenbao only returned to the Yong Wang House.
Yong Wang’s eyes are red and swollen, do not take care of Li Zhenbao.
Li Zhenbao will embrace the king of Yong pampering, fleshy words into baskets and baskets to pour out, the Li Kai are sour run. And to ensure that she will return to the capital from time to time, the king of Yong nothing to go to the West Qing House to live, she will give the king of Yong to prepare a special house, and so on.
She lived in the Yong Wang House for five days.
Zheng Yu did not come to accompany her, but accompanied her grandfather and the sorrowful Xie in the Zheng Mansion.
These Zheng Tingting also often went back to her mother’s house to accompany her sad mother and her elder brother who was about to travel far away.
The earth was reviving and the weather was warming up.
On the twenty-sixth day of the first month, the sunlight warmed people.
Deputy General Zheng and Grand Sheriff Jumbo departed for Xiqing.
Meng Zhimo and the other men went outside the city to see them off, and Jiang Yixi brought a pair of children and Huang Xin and Meng Xiu to the Zheng residence to see them off. She also brought two dozen pairs of Chinese medicines to regulate gynecology.
Even with the conditioning of the old divine doctor Shen, and eating the medicinal meals cooked by Jiang Yishi from time to time, Li Zhenbao’s monthly letter came at a normal time, but the amount was sadly small. She wanted to have a baby and had to continue to regulate.
The farewell scene was sad.
The crowd sent Li Zhenbao to the outer courtyard and saw her get into the carriage, which and Zheng Yu on horseback went out of the main gate to join the caravan coming out of the corner gate.
The caravan and the group of men and horses drifted away and disappeared at the corner of the street.
Xie and Zheng Tingting both burst into tears.
Jiang Xun advised Zheng Tingting, “Don’t cry, in the future, I will also request to be transferred to Xiqing.”
Xie snapped, “What did your son-in-law say. My son just left, and you want to abduct my daughter again.”
Jiang Xun’s handsome face reddened, hehehe dryly laughed twice. It was not good to say go, nor was it good to say no.
Going to Xiqing was what he had always wished for, his father’s bones were buried in that land.
Commander Zheng snapped at Xie, ”A woman’s opinion. A man’s ambition lies in all directions, it’s good for a son and son-in-law to have lofty ideals. It’s good for sons and daughters-in-law to have lofty ambitions. Can’t they all rely on a woman to support the family like the old He family’s descendants did? If the woman is gone, the family is also lost.”
Xie didn’t dare to say anything else. In the entire Jinhe Dynasty, there were no more than five second rank military officials in their twenties, and her own son was one of them.
Jiang Yishi wiped away her tears and withdrew her gaze before she saw that Yin’er was being held by an old man in the distance.
The old man had a full head of Chinese hair, his face was kind and gentle, it was Zheng Lao extra horse harnessed by the side of the emperor’s son-in-law.
Zheng old emperor’s son-in-law seemed to have tears in his eyes as he looked at Yin Er without blinking. Yin’er’s two small hands were holding onto the old face, her mouth saying something.
Jiang Yishi remembered that he had just held one hand in front of the other and wondered when Yin’er had run there.
Cun Cun also saw his sister being held by an old man. He pulled Jiang Yishi’s sleeve and said, “Mother, that person tried to pull me, but I dodged.” Suddenly thinking of something, he roared with wide eyes, “He’s a flower shooter, trying to steal his sister and sell her.”
Saying that, he ran to Zheng old extra horse harnessed by the side of the emperor’s side and hit his thighs with his little fists, “Put down my sister, don’t allow you to sell her. Put down, put down ……”
The side of the Zheng old young guard picked him up, haha laughed “Mixed kid, pat flower child dare not enter my family door. He is the elder brother of Zheng Tai Grandfather, you have to call him Zheng Tai Grandfather.”
CunCun was embarrassed. He laughed, “is Zheng too big grandfather ah, I just realized. You can hug my sister, and give it back to me when you’re done.”
Elder Emperor Son-in-law Zheng looked at CunCun lovingly again and stretched out a hand to squeeze CunCun’s small hand. Laughing, he said, “Being so nervous about your sister, you’re a good brother at first glance.”
Yin’er immediately quipped, “Brother is good, mother is good, father is good, Tai Zu Zu is good, Zheng Zu Zu is good.”
While saying this, she also broke her little fat fingers, and when these few people finished counting, they also finished breaking their fingers.
In her heart, Zheng Ji actually ranked this far ahead.
Zheng old young bailiff laughed, “Is Grandfather Zheng not good?”
He knew how much his old brother wanted to recognize his granddaughter and her pair of children, and he wanted to create conditions to let his old brother spend more time with Cun Cun and Yin Er. There were too many people present, and many words were like choking in the throat and could not be said directly.
Yinyi is not familiar with Zheng Laoshaobao, did not say anything.
CunCun doggedly said, “Good day, Grandfather Zheng.”
Zheng old emperor’s son-in-law saw in the distance Jiang Yishi’s face is not good, put Yin’er down, stroked her little grip and said, “Go to mother’s place.”
Cun Cun also slid off the ground and led her sister to her mother’s side.
Jiang Yishi persuaded Xie a few more times before taking the child home.
She didn’t scold Yin’er for getting close to the unknown Elder Son-in-law Zheng.
Affection was so marvelous that Yin’er still talks about “Zheng Zu Zu” even now. Zheng Ji and Zheng’s old emperor’s son-in-law looked very much like each other, and Yin’er looked like them, so the feeling of closeness probably came from the bottom of her heart.
All day long, Jiang Yishi was frustrated.
Li Zhenbao in her heart is her own sister, the same status as Jiang Xun.
