74. Too thin
After the winter solstice, time has passed.
After Yuqiu came back, Qi Yang and Lu Qipei moved out of Lu Mansion and officially moved into Princess Mansion.
The two lived in the main courtyard, and there were a few clusters of Cuizhu outside the window. Rao is that in this icy and snowy weather, those clusters of green bamboos are still green, the only bright color in this bleak winter day. The two occasionally opened the window and sat idle, and the greenery was all over the place.
In general, the two of them are very satisfied with the princess mansion they have arranged by themselves, and the days after moving are also comfortable and leisurely. However, some people have used the name of the princess to move to the house to send greetings, but Qi Yang is not stupid, how can he get into the chaos now? Immediately thanked the guests behind closed doors, only closed the door, and spent many days with the horse without shame.
Until the half-month marriage leave was over, Lu Qipei had to return to Dali Temple to continue the days when he started in the morning and returned in the evening.
Uncle Qi was left in the Lu Mansion, and only occasionally came to the Princess Mansion to take a trip to send some account books and letters. But regarding Lu's connection, Lu Qipei has not broken off. She is more actively accepting the affairs entrusted by Uncle Qi than before, which makes Uncle Qi quite pleased.
Time flies for two months, and Qi Yang's layout in the northwest has finally paid off. General Sun led a team of hundreds of soldiers from the northwest into the King of Rong, sometimes pretending to be an expelled Rong Di, sometimes changing back to Liang Jun’s armor, wandering and attacking, killing three in just half a month There are only small tribes of old and weak women and children, and now the news has been sent back to the capital of King of Rong.
The foreign war was unfavorable and the internal rear was restless, and King of Rong's offensive finally stopped.
Before New Year’s Eve, the King of Rong truce agreement was sent to the capital. No more unreasonable requests were written like last time. The request made by King of Rong was reasonable this time-they asked Kingdom of Liang to hand over the murderer of Xie Hongyi.
Dali Temple has been investigating this case for several months, and it was found earlier that all the evidence points to the Third Prince. The purpose was naturally to blame the Prince. But Qing Dali Temple and Shaoqing have dealt with the case for many years, but they all feel that there is a lot of tricky in this case, so they dare not jump to conclusions. Then came the King of Rong, Third Prince asked for his order, and then a series of incidents happened.
By now, Third Prince was already dead, and not many people cared about the facts. However, the emperor obviously could not admit that this matter was done by his own prince, so he found another scapegoat and handed it over to the King of Rong as an explanation.
It's hard to say whether King of Rong believes it or not, but he did retreat a year ago, which made the atmosphere of the New Year in Beijing three points better.
After returning to the house, Lu Qipei found a vase, and inserted a red plum that had been folded on the side of the road. Then he went around the screen and changed into his normal clothes. When I came out, I saw Qi Yang sitting at the table looking at the plum blossoms. He couldn’t help but smiled: “Fold it at will, and I didn’t choose too much. If your Royal Highness likes plum blossoms, we can go to Huguo Temple another day. I remember there is a piece there. Merlin."
Qi Yang waved his hand and said, "It's too cold to go."
People are lazy in winter. Although Qi Yang is not afraid of the cold, she really does not like to go out in this winter. have only ran to the palace a few times recently, and almost every time can run into one or two princes, they are more diligent than her, and they are not afraid of the emperor's indifference.
Lu Qipei lifted up his robe and sat beside her. Seeing her lack of interest, he asked, "Why, Aning is not happy today?"
Qi Yang tilted his body and leaned on her shoulders, closing his eyes and said: "Not really, I just feel a little bored."
Lu Qipei knew what she meant, and didn't say anything, just reached out and stroked her back. After a while, Fang said, "The prince should be back in a few days. Are you going to meet him with him?"
When Qi Yang heard the prince, he opened his eyes: "I want to go."
************************************************** **************************
The two countries negotiated a peace before New Year's Eve, but when the prince hurried back to the capital, it was new years later.
The weather was fine that day, most of the snow on the road had melted, but the cold wind was still biting. There were a lot of courtiers leaving the city to greet them. The group waited for a long time outside the city gate. The thick fur clothes couldn't stop the cold winter, and the team heard two depressed coughs from time to time.
Compared with these colleagues, Lu Qipei's treatment is obviously much better. She was sitting in the carriage of the princess mansion. The car was burning with a warm charcoal basin, and she had warm tea on her hand. The most important thing was that she was accompanied by the princess, and she was so leisurely as to take a vacation at home. It wasn't until news came from outside that the prince's car was coming soon, and she finished her clothes, put on a big cloak and got out of the carriage.
It is said that the prince is approaching, but in fact it is still far away. Lu Qipei got off the car and waited in advance to show respect. Qi Yang didn't need it anymore, she was also the princess, and there was no need to stand and wait for someone in the cold wind.
As soon as Lu Qipei got out of the carriage, Qi Yang opened the curtain again: "Wait first."
Lu Qipei turned back when he heard the movement, his brows softened, "What's the matter?"
Qi Yang stretched out his hand and handed a hand stove over, and said, "Be careful, don't catch a cold."
Lu Qipei accepted it with a smile, thanked him, and then walked to the group of frozen ministers. Then he waited with everyone for about two quarters of an hour, only then saw a man and horse appear at the far end of the official road, slowly coming towards the capital.
It was a neatly organized army. The red-clothed and black-clad army was very powerful, and it was full of blood and killing, which was no longer what it looked like when it left Beijing. And as the team of less than a thousand people drew closer, the surrounding area was actually killed.
The team greeted the prince was silent for a moment, and everyone showed a cautious attitude.
After a while, the prince's car finally came down to the front of the group of soldiers. The car door opened, and the prince in an apricot robe stood proudly on the car. He was much thinner, his robe seemed a little empty on his body, and his face seemed pale. But the prince's aura was not only undiminished, but he was like the soldiers behind him, adding a bit of dignity and seriousness.
Many people just looked at the prince and hung their heads, feeling a little palpitating, and the leading Ritual Book Shangshu went up two steps: "Your Majesty, this triumphant triumph raises the prestige of our country, Your Majesty is very pleased, and I am especially pleased to come to meet him."
The prince's expression was calm, and the killing on his body gradually subsided, and he seemed to have returned to the gentle and benevolent prince of the past: "This is the lonely duty. It is cold today. I have to wait for you adults to wait for a long time."
Seeing this, the ministers were a little relieved, and they were too busy.
The prince said a few more words and then wanted to turn around in the car, but his eyes swept across the crowd, and he paused for a moment on Lu Qipei, then caught a glimpse of the carriage parked not far away, his expression on his face suddenly relaxed a lot.
At this moment, Qi Yang also got off the carriage. She came with money and called from a distance: "Brother Emperor."
The prince opened his eyes, and the bit of coldness that remained before disappeared completely: "Why is the emperor's sister here in this weather?" After he finished speaking, he looked at Lu Qipei and said with a smile: "Couldn't you come to accompany the horse?"
The two brothers and sisters reunited after a long absence. Qi Yang was originally a little emotional. Unexpectedly, the prince was just joking when he spoke. He choked in his throat and couldn't say what he wanted to say. She was a little bit angry and wanted to laugh, but there is no doubt that the prince's words made the siblings that the brother and sister hadn't seen for a long time completely disappeared: "Yes, yes, I came with the brother-in-law, for fear that she would wait too long to freeze. "
The prince himself joked first, he didn't mind the joke, he just said: "Since it is cold, then go back and talk if you have something to say."
The ministers came to welcome the prince back to the palace, and they would not stay outside the city any longer. Qi Yang boarded the prince's carriage, but the prince didn't drive her away, so the two brothers and sisters could have a chat on the road.
In the car, the prince still started jokingly: "Why, are you willing to abandon your concubine now?"
Qi Yang hummed: "I can't bear it, I don't care about her." After speaking, he said again: "It's just that you haven't seen the emperor for a long time, and you are in the dangerous place on the battlefield. I will not see you well, nor can I rest assured."
She spoke very bluntly and frankly. When the prince heard this, her eyebrows softened: "Sister, don't worry, there is nothing wrong with her."
Qi Yang glanced at his lap unconsciously, thinking of the prince in and out of the carriage before, and he didn't see anything wrong. He didn't think he was hurt like that in his previous life. This made her breathe a sigh of relief, and while looking away, she said with concern: "Earlier, there was a loss in Huaicheng. I heard that Brother Huang had been injured. I wonder if I can heal now?"
The injury two months ago is gone, and the skin and flesh injuries have long been harmless. But the prince’s luck was really not so good. Although he was not shot through the knee this time, he was stabbed on his right shoulder. He was delayed for too long in the treatment and had no good doctors. Now he has the root cause of the disease. On strength. Especially in the recent cold weather, there is soreness in the bones, which is even more difficult.
But these princes didn't want to talk to Qi Yang more, so they just raised their hands and nodded on their shoulders and said, "It's no problem, it's already healed."
Qi Yang's gaze then fell on the prince's shoulders. Seeing that he looked relaxed and calm, he also believed: "That's all right." After speaking, he stared at the prince and frowned, "Just this time," The emperor's brother has lost a lot, and he will have a good life after returning to the palace."
The prince was impatient when she heard her babble, but felt that the sound of the urge was like a warm current, flowing into his heart.
The brothers and sisters didn't talk about military affairs on the road. The prince only talked to Qi Yang about life on the border, and occasional interesting things are also worth mentioning. Then he asked Qi Yang how good these days are in Beijing, whether he can get along well with her husband after marriage and so on.
The topic was so relaxed that when he drove to the imperial palace, Prince and Qi Yang still had some meaning when they got off the bus.
When the prince returned to the court, the officials gathered around him, but before stepping into the hall of the propaganda room, the prince had a special opinion of Lu Qipei. He patted Lu Qipei on the shoulder and exhorted her: "I entrust the imperial sister to you, and I hope he will cherish the love."
Two months later, Lu Qipei did not escape the beating of her elder brother. She was a little helpless, but she also solemnly replied, "As it is."
The prince knew that the young couple had a lot of affection, and this sentence was enough. Just before leaving, he squeezed Lu Qipei's shoulder again and whispered: "It's just too thin, young people have to grow longer."
Only by being solid and generous can this shoulder shoulder the responsibility and the future-the prince did not finish the rest.
Lu Qipei was a little palpitated because of the prince's words and actions. She raised her hand to cover the shoulder that had been slapped by the prince, and looked at the back of him walking and walking away, slightly lost. Until Qi Yang came to ask, she shook her head and said, "It's nothing."
The author has something to say: The timeline is still going too slow, so you will feel that the reborn couple has nothing to do, weak, pitiful and helpless. Then I counted, the little princess was only sixteen, and the horse was only seventeen, which was still too young. So let's happily jump the timeline in the next chapter, and go straight to three years later! ! !
