Ye Jiao was holding a cup of tea when she smelled and said, "what can I do for Hui Niang?"

When Huanning heard this, she replied with a smile, "I'm going to call the Empress in the future. She told me that she knew that you were going to Beijing recently. She missed you so much. She also wanted to see your children and have a good time together."

Ye Jiao changed her name when she heard the words: "does the Queen want me to go to the palace with Xu Bao Ningbao and Ruyi?"

"it would be nice to bring Xubao. The dragon and Phoenix are still young. We'll talk about it later."

When he said this, Huanning sighed in his heart.

In fact, for Huanning, the one who is close to her is Chu Chengyun, but the one who gets along most is Meng Huixian.

Queen Meng may be resolute and spicy to others, but she has always been gentle and virtuous to those who are close to her, especially when she treats Huanning as if she were her own sister, and there is no taboo between them.

Huanning is well aware of the worries of Empress Meng today.

The choice of the imperial concubine is the second, the left and right emperors do not have this idea, and Queen Meng is a resourceful one. Even if she really fills the harem, she also has the ability to secure her position.

But the queen was favored by the childless, which really became a worry for her.

At this time, it is not psychological envy to say that she wants to have fun with Ye Jiao and her children, but she wants to touch the good fortune of her children.

Ye Jiao did not think so much, and she did not speculate on the inside story, but nodded and agreed: "I will take Xubao to see her later."

Huanning smiled and nodded, and then pushed the refreshments on the table toward Ye Jiao: "there is no hurry. Now both inside and outside the palace are busy preparing for the test, and many people's eyes are also staring at the harem. You are busy with what you are doing first. Just listen to the arrangement of the queen."

The only people staring at the harem are the officials who want to send their daughters there.

It's just that no one can tell whether they will be good or bad in the future.

At the thought of this, Huanning could not help shaking his head: "they all say that it is good to be an emperor, but I think there are also bad things. In the past, I went wherever I wanted to go. The third emperor always talked about wanting to travel all over the world, but now he is sitting in that golden house with a bunch of people following him when he comes out the door."

Huanning said that it might as well be a thing, but not everyone who listens to it can listen to it.

If you change someone else, when you hear Huanning say this, I'm afraid you have to cover your ears and pretend to be inaudible.

Ye Jiao looked at her curiously and thought to herself that it was good to be an emperor in the book, but now hearing her say so, she seems to have her own bitterness.

When it was about dinnertime, Qin, the manager in the shop, came to invite someone.

The manager of Qin looked at the age of about thirty, with a square appearance and a bright eyebrow. When he smiled, he said that he was a merchant, but he was more like a literati.

Since Princess Huanning is also a celebrity in the capital, Qin's steward naturally recognized it. After entering the door, she first greeted Ye Jiao and Princess Huanning, and then Wensheng said to Ye Jiao, "second Lady Fu'an, please go to the lobby for dinner."

Ye Jiao nodded and told Xiao Su to accompany Mo's wife to take care of the three small ones, which was carried to the vestibule with Huanning.

However, in the past, Ye Jiao did not see Qi Ming, so she looked to Qin in charge: "where is Saburo?"

Qin, who was still gentle and gentle, lowered his eyes and replied with a smile, "I just invited him. The third young master said that he had an appointment with someone and would not come back for dinner tonight, so that the second young master and the second young lady did not have to wait for him."

As soon as this remark came out, Ye Jiao had no reaction, but Qi Yun was stupefied for a moment.

Now that everyone in the Qi family has come to Beijing for the first time, if there is any, it is this shop and Ye Pingrong, a brother-in-law.

Qi Ming is so young that he has never been out of the city before, and now he doesn't have many children to go to Beijing to take the exam. where did he get his friends?

When it comes to friends, I'm afraid there's only one left.

After thinking about it, Qi Yun could only think of the letter that Ye Pingrong said he was going to burn.

…… No wonder it was burned after watching it, and it turned out to be an appointment to go out. The trace of the emperor really could not be seen by others.

Qi Yun's eyes could not help but look at Ye Pingrong, coincidentally Ye Pingrong also looked over, the two people looked at each other and saw the surprise and clarity in each other's eyes.

But Ye Jiao didn't think about it until she saw off Ye Pingrong and Huanning, and when Ye Jiao and Qi Yun went back to their room to have a rest, Qi Jiao told her, "I'm afraid it's the one who ran out to see Saburo."

That one? Who is this?

Little ginseng is obviously not suitable for that kind of metaphorical speech, with a daze in his eyes.

Qi Yun leaned to Ye Jiao's ear and said, Ye Jiao's eyes widened slightly.

She had just heard from Huanning that there was something uncomfortable about the emperor, but now Qi Yun told him that Chu Chengyun had come out to look for Qi Ming.

What if we agreed not to go out at will?

Qi Yun thought that Ye Jiao was frightened, so he reached out and touched the woman's back and said in a slow voice, "you might as well. He and his third brother are just catching up. If you take the exam and compare your studies, there will be nothing else."

Ye Jiao was not worried about this, but pulled Qi Yun's sleeve and asked, "is it safe for Saburo to run out by himself?" There is never peace around that man. I'm afraid Saburo has something to do. "

As soon as Qi Yun heard this, he knew that his wife still remembered that she had been assassinated after meeting Chu Chengyun last time.

If the situation is uncertain, Qi Yun will certainly ask someone to go out and get Qi Ming back. He can get back his life, but Qi Ming is not necessarily. He is still a half-year-old child, and he really does not know how to run when he is in danger.

But now that person is already the Ninety-five, the most peaceful around, of course, there is no need to worry.

The man gently shook Ye Jiao's hand and said, "it doesn't matter. Qin sent someone to escort him behind Saburo. I want to be able to come back soon."

Ye Jiao was relieved to see Qi Yun say this, and there was a smile on her face.

Seeing that it was getting late, Qi Yun asked Ye Jiao to sit well and went outside to ask someone to bring Scald, but instead of sending it through the door, Qi Yun himself went to bring the basin into the room.

One big and one small, the one was soaked with medicinal herbs, and the small one with petals, which was placed side by side by Qi Yun.

The man looked up at Ye Jiao and waved: "come here, soak your feet."

If you change to the rich people next to them, if they earn money and have servants, they will naturally have their own people to do these things, and there is no need to do them themselves.

It's just that Qi Huan has not been in the habit of being waited on in everything, and on the other hand, he has always found it particularly fun to take care of Ye Jiao himself.

This is the habit formed by Qi Yun when Ye Jiao was pregnant with a dragon and Phoenix fetus. At that time, Ye Jiao was pregnant with two babies, and her belly was much bigger than that of others. She had trouble sitting down, let alone bending over.

Qi Yun helped her to rub her legs and massage, even if it was to carry a basin.

As a result, he still is.

When the man saw that Ye Jiao wanted to take off his shoes, he let Ye Jiao sit down, squatted down slightly to remove her shoes and socks, held the woman's ankle and carefully put them into the wooden basin, and his eyes looked up at her and asked softly, "is it hot?"

Ye Jiao first shrank back, but soon got used to it. "it's not hot," she said with a smile. "

Qi Yun got up, first washed her hands, then wiped her hands with a moist cloth, and then sat next to Ye Jiao, but did not rush to soak into another wooden basin, but put a lid on the basin and waited for the medicine inside to open.

Ye Jiao looked down at the two pots and suddenly gently bumped Qi Yun's thigh with her knee: "Thank you, Xianggong."

Qi Yun smiled and said, "it's all right, as long as you like it."

Ye Jiao looked up at him again, hesitated and said, "actually, I'm a little hungry."

Just now when was talking to Huanning at dinner, mouth delayed eating. was all right just now. Now as soon as soak in Scald and relax on body, feel hungry.

Qi Yun reached out and pinched the woman's face. "Why didn't you say that just now?"

Ye Jiao's voice was vague: "I didn't think of it just now. I can eat it later.". Huh? "

But before she lost her voice, she saw the man put a paper bag in the palm of her hand.

Ye Jiao was familiar with this paper bag, and her eyes shone slightly: "Fengshengzhai?"

"well, sweet-scented osmanthus cake from Fengshengzhai." Qi Yun asked Tiezi to buy this a long time ago. seeing that there was Fengshengzhai in the capital, he wanted to buy some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes that Ye Jiao liked, but he never took them out, waiting for his wife to cry hungry.

Ye Jiao leaned over and took a bite in his face and happily opened the paper bag to eat the cake.

Qi Yun, on the other hand, slowly opened the lid on the basin and thought to himself, "my wife eats more. It's not easy to settle down tonight, and she can always do something she hasn't done before."

But as soon as he soaked in, the voice of Mrs. Mo was heard outside: "the second young master, the second young woman, the young master and the girl began to cry, looking for someone."

When children are young, they always like to be accompanied by their parents, but they will cry when they are out of sight for a while.

If it is a child, Mrs. Mo can handle it.

But now there are three dolls, and two of them can't speak, so they can't make sense. One can make trouble with the other two, and Rao can't stop raising children like this.

As usual, Qi Yun went to appease him, but when Ye Jiao saw that he was "inconvenient to move," Ye Jiao put the paper bag aside, neatly wiped her feet and put on her shoes and socks and said, "I'll be right back." Then he put on his coat and went to the wing next door, leaving Qi Yun to sit there, looking at the two red candles in front of him, looking unclear.

In the end, Qi Erlang did not wait for his wife from home. Ye Jiao coaxed the three little ones to sleep with them and did not come back.

When the people left the shop and moved to the newly bought house the next day, Ye Jiao did not quite understand why the dolls' yard was separated from her own yard.

Qi Yun gave the reason: "when they are older, they will be independent, and it is good to be familiar with them earlier."

It's just that in the evening, it was Qi Erlang who took the initiative to carry the three children into the house. In the end, it was more time for the family of five to sleep together, and no one was reluctant to leave each other.

Unconsciously, more than half a month has passed.

Qi Yun originally wanted to find Qi Ming an academy and a good teacher to teach him well, but now Chu Chengyun came out of the palace to meet Qi Sanlang one day in five days, and the conversation was very pleasant, and every time he said Qi Ming, he could get something. Qi Yun gave up the idea of looking for the academy.

Chu Chengyun, as the king of a country, has his own reserve, and of course he can't do such a thing as missing the topic, but he can only experience the political affairs of the current situation and the sufferings of the people more than those locked up in the house like Qi Ming. It is obviously better for his own Saburo to talk to him more than to memorize books by rote.

And Qi Yun could see that Qi Ming really respected Chu Chengyun, and every time he came back, he could tell himself a lot of things about him, blowing Chu Chengyun into the sky with nothing on earth.

In the past, I had to say that I was nervous before the exam, but now I am very happy every day. Qi Yun looked at it and thought that being so relaxed was also a good thing for preparing for the exam.

No longer taking care of Qi Ming, Qi Yun concentrated on the business in the capital and looked at the account books for several hours every day.

Ye Jiao is also busy with things.

The new house occupies a modest area, which is larger than that of others, but it is no better than the original Qi family.

However, the Qi family built a house in the village, like the size of the row, naturally do not have to stingy land, and this is in the capital, every inch of that is expensive oil, can have a house is rare.

And this place has a total of four yards and a garden, which is enough to calculate.

The villain wanted to make use of the garden early so that the medicinal seeds he had brought had a place to live, but it was not really spring yet, and the ground was still hard, so he had to wait.

She took advantage of this period of time to recognize all the people in the back house and return to each one in order.

It's easy to say, but it's really not easy to finish it.

When we are really in charge of the house affairs, we will gradually settle down, and the time has already entered March.

Seeing that the sun is fine today, Ye Jiao coaxed three children, then quietly took Xiao Su and two boys out to the street.

She didn't need a carriage to follow her this time, but strolled slowly down the street.

Since came here, have been busy all the time, and now don't have time to have a look in the capital. Now that Ye Jiao is free, Ye Jiao is still fresh, and Xiao Su is even more happy. Her eyes seem to be not enough, looking left and right, but she has been following Ye Jiao closely for fear of losing her second mistress.

However, if Ye Jiao used to go to the city, Ye Jiao would more or less buy something to take back, but this time Ye Jiao didn't think about what to buy. She just turned around and wrote down in her head what alleys and streets were around here.

After all, if you want to live here for a long time in the future, you should always know what is nearby, and Qi Yun said that the neighborhood should be more amicable, and many merchants in the capital also want to make friends with his family, and they will invite their neighbors to tea in a few days. Even if they don't know them now, they probably have a sense of who they are nearby.

But as she walked, Ye Jiao saw a group of people in front of her.

Surrounded by three layers of inner and outer layers, can only see an old man squatting in the crevice, looking particularly pitiful, while there are two women standing in front of him, dressed as girls from wealthy families.

Anyone who passes by will take a look at the hustle and bustle, but the little ginseng does not like to take part in the hustle and bustle, and the crowded places are used to being lazy to go, and now they want to hide around them.

Although Xiao Su was curious, she withdrew her eyes and followed Ye Jiao, ready to walk away.

But only a few steps away, I heard a woman's voice in the crowd: "do you know who my lady is?" This is the relative of the Qi family. This is a family valued by even the saints, and they need the most face. since you say you can tear it down and sell it, you have to tear it down and sell it. Do you want to go back on what you just said? "

…… My next of kin? Why don't I recognize it?

Ye Jiao took a step, then turned around and whispered, "Let's go and have a look."
