Let Me Pursue You Chapter 107

The couple shouldn't have thought of breaking up, after all, children's words are not taboo, and the baby in their arms is less than two months old. But both of them thought of the age difference between Zheng Hong and Yuan Shu: six years old, exactly the same as them.

Yuan Cixian glanced at Lu Shiqing, and the meaning revealed in his eyes was: When you were six years old, would you feel throbbing because you hugged me who was just full-term?

The answer on Lu Shiqing's face was a bit vague: Maybe you have to try it back eighteen years ago to find out...

But the two of them couldn't hesitate for too long. Seeing Zheng Hong stretched out his arms and waiting, and the queen was also at the side, Yuan Cixian smiled and gave Cai Zhi a wink to signal her to go forward.

Adults should not put their minds on children. Six-year-olds are also dolls. What do you know.

It's really impossible for Zheng Hong to have any thoughts. He just hugged a little brother like Juye, but he hasn't hugged a little sister yet. Seeing this, he carefully stretched out his hand and put Lu Yuanshu in his arms.

Pick a branch and bend over, and support it under it.

Lu Yuanshu's unprepared temper has not lasted for a day or two. Yuan Cixian knew that a child would at least recognize something in a completely unfamiliar place. Unexpectedly, she was obviously not asleep, and as soon as Zheng Hong took it over, she rolled away, turning her face It stuck to his small chest, and then snuggled up to him and closed his eyes comfortably.

"Wow." Zheng Hong couldn't help but let out an exclamation, probably never seen such an obedient one.

Yuan Cixian wanted to help her forehead. Yuan Shu is so easy to raise, it would be great to have half of Yuan Zhen's vigor.

Lu Shiqing was also heartbroken. Although he knew that the child was pure, he felt that something was wrong when he wanted to protect the calf, and said face-to-face: "Yuan Shu's body is not light, Your Highness, don't be tired."

Zheng Hong's eyes were golden, indicating that he was not tired at all. But the queen heard what Lu Shiqing meant, and smiled and asked Caizhi to take him away.

Only then did he reluctantly let go, and then he kept staring at Caizhi greedily.

The empress looked like a loving mother, while gossiping with Yuan Cixian and chatting about her parents who were far away in Yaozhou, while happily teasing the three children back and forth.

But Yuan Cixian felt that she was not in a good mood today, she was much more haggard than when she received Jiahu a few days ago, no matter how thick the makeup was, she couldn't suppress the tiredness at the moment.

The harem has the polishing and calculations of the harem, and it's not easy for anyone. Yuan Cixian didn't delve too deeply into it, and eagerly talked to her to cope with the situation. Lu Shiqing was also with him at first, but was later instructed by the queen to teach Zheng Hong's homework.

He thought it was good, lest the kid keep looking at Yuan Shu with a curious cat look on his face.

Zheng Hong learned an article from him, and seemed a little bored. Speaking of other things, he hesitated and asked: "Lu Shilang, how is my sister?"

This is a non-stop question. Lu Shiqing was not in Nanzhao, how could he know if Shaohe was doing well.

In the past, he must have said "I don't know" to be perfunctory, but after he had a child, his temper has been tempered a lot, and he said patiently: "I don't know, why did your highness suddenly ask this?"

After he asked this question, he obviously felt that the other side had quieted down. It was the empress and Yuan Cixian who had stopped talking, as if they were listening to his answer.

Lu Shiqing smiled and understood. The empress didn't mean to drink, and she asked him and Yuan Cixian to bring the baby, but in fact she wanted to inquire about Nanzhao's news. Presumably she had run into a wall with the emperor, and because there were eyes and ears everywhere in the palace, it was inconvenient to talk privately with the courtiers, so as not to cause embarrassment, so she asked Zheng Hong's mouth, fearing that the child would not be able to convey the message clearly, so she listened .

After pitying a country, caring for her daughter has to be so roundabout.

Zheng Hong heard the words and replied: "I dreamed about Sister last night, and Sister cried in the dream, saying she was in pain."

Lu Shiqing frowned slightly. Then this dream must not have been made by Zheng Hong, but by the queen. It is said that there is a faint bond between a mother and her child. He didn't know it before. Ever since Yuan Cixian found out that the child was fake last time, he also felt that this bond-like connection was quite mysterious.

Looking at Zheng Hong's earnest eyes, he said truthfully: "I only know that a few days ago, after the new emperor of Nanzhao ascended the throne and the princess was conferred, His Majesty didn't mention the rest. It's just a dream. Please rest, Your Highness."

After Lu Shiqing finished speaking, he felt that the queen's devious method was well thought out, but he was still not smart in his bones.

Not to mention that he really didn't know, but if he really got some gossip, how could he possibly reveal his background to her.

After a while, the queen let out a vague sigh, and after a few polite words, she drove back to Penglai Hall.

Yuan Cixian got up and nodded to see the nobleman out of the palace, thinking desolately in his heart, if there is anyone in the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty who really missed Shaohe, it would probably be the queen and Zheng Hong.

The empress had left, and Lu Shiqing planned to go back to the mansion, but before he left, he was summoned by Emperor Huining, so he simply asked Yuan Cixian and the child to wait for him in the Hanliang Palace.

Yuan Cixian took over Zheng Hong's class, and after teaching a few lessons, he suddenly heard him ask: "Does the teacher know that there is a war in the west?"

When Zheng Hong called Lu Shiqing, because he did not have the official position of the prince's teacher, and because his father said "there is a difference between a monarch and a minister", he could not be called too intimately, and he was called "teacher" directly, but Yuan Cixian was casual. up.

She heard this, nodded and said yes.

"Wars are not good." Zheng Hong muttered to himself, "Sixth brother said, I want to learn more martial arts, but use less martial arts."

"Do you think His Highness Six is ​​right?" she asked.

Zheng Hong nodded solemnly: "Brother Six is ​​telling me that I have to be able to fight so as not to be bullied, but I have to fight less, and don't bully others casually." After finishing speaking, he added, "We Da Zhou have to do the same."

"Yes." Yuan Cixian touched his head with a smile. After touching his head, he felt courageous again. He withdrew his hand and looked at the bright flowers in the bushes outside the temple and said seriously, "If you have seen The bones are exposed, and the mourning is full of mourners. I will definitely not want to initiate a war unless..."

Zheng Hong tilted his head and asked, "Unless what?"

She pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't answer.

Unless the blood shed in this battle is to prevent a greater sacrifice.

There was no urgent matter for Emperor Huining to summon Lu Shiqing, just to talk about King Ping.

The old emperor always knew that this son was dangerous. Many years ago, in addition to Yuan Yizhi, there was another county king with a different surname in the court. The fief was in Huainan, and he was named Huainan King. Later, seeing that Huainan's forces threatened the court, the court spent a lot of twists and turns to get rid of this county king with a different surname, and finally sent King Ping to Huainan to maintain balance. But these years, King Ping has become the second King of Huainan. Although his surname is Zheng, he covets the throne as well, and he is more legitimate than the king of a county with a different surname.

But if every dangerous force can be wiped out as soon as it is seen, it will be too easy for this emperor.

It's not that Emperor Huining didn't want to pluck his son's wings, but he couldn't. The foreign aggression has not been eliminated, if there is a war within the Great Zhou Dynasty, there will be aliens who will take advantage of the vacancy, Huainan is not small, and it is an extremely rich place, unless it is absolutely necessary, he is not good at taking risks, so he has been pulling this people like flying a kite. A dangerous thin line.

Just not now.

In the past, the second prince was scrambling and fighting together, so he felt a little relieved, but now that the second prince is gone, King Ping's courage has also gone. It's like an open demonstration against his father, and his throat hangs almost every day. I am afraid that one day when I open my eyes, the kite string will be broken, and a "Qing King's side" will be ushered in instead.

However, King Ping had a good plan. Da Zhou sent troops to aid the Uyghurs, which added frost to the foundation that was already as thin as a cicada's wings. The loss in the past half a year was too much to be counted. He didn't have the confidence to preemptively strike .

Emperor Huining occasionally had to admit reality. As the emperor, he was too useless.

Lu Shiqing comforted him a few words, but did not give any real suggestions, only saying that the war on the Uyghur side would be over soon, and if this internal strife was inevitable, he could only hurry up to recuperate and add troops to Chang'an City.

The old emperor could only nod his head weakly. Although he was wary of Lu Shiqing, he knew that he was definitely not from King Ping, so he could still ask him about King Ping with confidence.

When the conversation was almost over, Emperor Huining suddenly said in a low voice: "From this point of view, it's still easy to stick to my heart."

Lu Shiqing pursed his lips and smiled.

This is a comparison, remembering the goodness of the Yuan family.

The old emperor was making wishful thinking, thinking that his fears should be his own, but over the years, Yuan Yizhi really did not act restlessly. If the court was in trouble, even though he was far away in southern Yunnan, he would not help.

But he didn't have to say such things to irrelevant people. The reason why he said such a sentence was to test the meaning of the Yuan family through Lu Shiqing.

Lu Shiqing naturally heard it, and said: "The king of southern Dian seldom talks about political affairs with Cixian, and I'm afraid I won't find out anything from her mouth. But just from the point of 'seldom talking', you can see that he It's heartfelt."

Emperor Huining nodded: "In your opinion, if I really can't handle it, can I move south of Yunnan?"

Lu Shiqing nodded and said, "It should be possible. But don't forget, Your Majesty, that southern Yunnan is the barrier to the southwest of Great Zhou. Once that end is empty, Nanzhao will have an opportunity."

"Xiju didn't gain a foothold so quickly, besides, isn't his son still with me?"

Lu Shiqing smiled lightly, nodded without saying anything.

After the old emperor asked about the business, he said with emotion: "It's been nine years. I still remember that Yi Zhi went to southern Yunnan in March nine years ago."

Originally, he didn't pay much attention to this kind of fake emotion, but he was slightly taken aback after hearing it: "Your Majesty said that the King of Southern Dian left Beijing in March of that year?"

Emperor Huining looked at him strangely: "That's right, it was after you were appointed Tanhualang, I remember it quite clearly, that day..."

Lu Shiqing didn't understand what the old emperor said in the back, until he left Zichen Hall, then went to Hanliang Hall to pick up Yuan Cixian and the child, and sat in the carriage back to the mansion all the way, his face was all black.

Yuan Cixian thought that something went wrong in the palace, but there were so many eyes and ears in the palace, it was hard to ask, and when the children were taken to the carriage behind by two maidservants and left alone with Lu Shiqing, she asked him: "What's the matter, how do you look?" So ugly."

Lu Shiqing didn't speak, but looked ahead.

She was even more strange in her heart, she waved her snow-white palm towards his eyes, pulled his sleeve and said, "Who made you angry?"

Lu Shiqing couldn't resist her trick of carefully pulling his sleeves. Hearing this, he was willing to open his mouth anyway, and tilted his head and said, "Who messed with me, don't you know?"

Yuan Cixian really didn't know, but she sensed a dangerous aura and felt that it had something to do with her. She thought, don't care what it is, just laugh first. I know, I rolled up my sleeves to clean up people for you, why are you asking here calmly?"

Glib!

Lu Shiqing leaned over suddenly, without warning, he slammed his fist on the wall of the car, caged her and asked, "Nine years ago, when I was riding a horse through the streets, you were still in the capital."

Yuan Cixian was startled. Oops, she made a mistake.

Last time she was nervous and lied to him, saying that she had already gone to Yaozhou. But thinking about it now, this kind of lie is very likely to be exposed, it might as well be better to stay at home and not go out that day.

She smiled shyly: "Maybe I misremembered last time, and I definitely didn't mean to lie!" After finishing speaking, she clenched his fist against the wall, and gave him a breath, and said, "A literati learns from a martial artist." What are you doing, doesn't punching hurt?"

But the more she did this, the more guilty she became. Lu Shiqing was able to easily detect her acting skills earlier, and now he knows her well, confirming his conjecture in one go.

If she didn't do something wrong to him, she wouldn't be lying. What's more, he remembered that the last time Xiju came to Chang'an, when everyone was catapulting from the rain pavilion, she was very good at slingshot.

He snatched his hand back, not allowing her to change the subject, oppressing her on the top, said: "Did you hit the slingshot?"

Yuan Cixian couldn't argue anymore, she stretched out her hand and kept touching his chest, while admitting her mistake: "It was me who hit him, I hit him, I am young and ignorant, you adults don't remember villains... If, if Knowing that you will come here as my husband to question me nine years later, I'm sure I won't be so stubborn! But I've played it all, and you've been afraid of dogs for nine years, so we can't settle this account..."

Lu Shiqing was really hurt by her anger.

Well, because she has a problem of being afraid of dogs, after nine years of suffering, she still has to be taken advantage of by her elder brother several times and threatened by dogs. Yuan Cixian, or the Yuan family really beat him!

He gritted his teeth and said, "Who said it can't be settled?"

Yuan Cixian pursed her mouth: "If you can do the math, then you do the math."

As soon as she finished speaking, the carriage under her body seemed to have encountered a pothole and bumped a bit, causing both of them to go up and down slightly.

Lu Shiqing seemed to realize something from this ups and downs, and smiled sullenly: "You said it."

Before Yuan Cixian could react, he was pushed to the corner of the carriage.
