Chapter 377 Goodbye Mrs. Hua

Like now, Princess Anping said that she would take Deng Huaning back to Princess Princess' mansion to get acquainted with the surroundings, so Su Yingxue asked her to come pick her up during the Lantern Festival, saying that she would take a few children out to watch the Lantern Festival on the night of the Lantern Festival.

Deng Huaning held a half-year-old banquet on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, and Su Yingxue asked Deng Huaning to go back one day earlier, so Princess Anping couldn't say anything.

After Princess Anping left, Qu Chu asked Su Yingxue, "Are you really not going to Hua Ning's half-year-old banquet? How about I accompany you?"

Qu Chu is now well-known, and the nobles in Yudu know that she has killed tens of thousands of people with a single order, and they know that she is definitely not something they can mess with, and they dare not make mistakes in front of her.

Su Yingxue said: "No, I don't want to be looked at like a monkey."

Qu Chu thought for a while: "Then I won't go either, and I don't want to be a monkey either."

Su Yingxue took off her shoes, and leaned lazily on the bench: "Have you ever thought about how you will deal with yourself after your family becomes the throne?"

Qu Chu also followed Su Yingxue's example and leaned on another bench.

Such unruly behaviors were common before Qu Chu was 15 years old. At that time, she often lay on the grass with her legs crossed to listen to the wind. But after entering the military camp, Qu Chu never did such presumptuous behaviors again. .

The longer she spent in the barracks, Qu Chu became more and more like a soldier. "Walk like the wind, stand like a pine" is far from enough to describe her. Her whole person is like a gun, like a magic weapon that has not been sheathed.

This kind of life has lasted for more than ten years, and even Qu Chu's marriage and childbirth failed to change her behavior and habits.

She didn't really relax until the war ended and Qu Chu resigned from all posts in the army.

However, no matter how relaxed she was, she couldn't be like Su Yingxue.

Just like now, the two of them were also leaning on the big cushion of the bench, Su Yingxue was like a lazy Persian cat, while Qu Chu was like a half-squatting tiger.

Qu Chu answered Su Yingxue's question: "I haven't thought about it."

Su Yingxue lazily said: "Then you have to think about it from now on."

Qu Chu really thought about it seriously.

"First of all, I will definitely not take care of the harem. I will leave these matters to Yanhong. Secondly, I will not entertain the families of the ministers in the court. Who will be responsible for these matters?"

Thinking of this, Chu Chuka lost his mind.

"Ying Xue, if you were me, what would you do?"

Su Yingxue said irresponsibly: "I'm not you, how do I know what you should do?"

Qu Chu thought for a while:
"Actually, the emperor is still young. When he abdicates and Qingyu Qingheng has grown up, I can hand over these matters to Qingyu's wife or Qingheng."

Su Yingxue laughed out loud with a "puchi":
"You really dare to think, if Qingyu Qingheng knew that they were so young, you would count them against them, and you still don't know how to treat you as a mother?"

The more Qu Chu thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible.

"I am not good at doing these things because I have never received any study or training in this area, but Qingheng is different.

She grew up with a lot of gold and jade, rich clothes and fine food, dealing with all kinds of people, socializing, receiving people and treating others are basic courses and etiquette, she will not hate these. "

Su Yingxue did not refute Qu Chu.

She watched from the side, although Qingheng was young and somewhat arrogant, but Qingheng did not reject banquets and entertainment.

Su Yingxue didn't speak for a moment, but Qu Chu began to ponder in his heart.

After a while, Su Yingxue quietly asked: "If one day Ning Youbei wants to take a concubine, or the ministers force him to take a concubine, what will you do?"

Qu Chu was taken aback for a moment, and replied casually, "Eunuch him."

Even so, both of them knew it was just a joke.

Qu Chu also thought about this question, but before things got to that point, she really didn't know what she would do then?
But there is one thing she is certain of: when that day really comes, she will no longer be able to flirt with Ning Youbei as she is now.

……

Fifteenth
Since Yudu suffered a catastrophe last year, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Rites to host this year's Lantern Festival in order to reassure people's hearts.

The Lantern Festival is led by the Ministry of Rites and assisted by the Civil Chamber of Commerce.

The venue of the Lantern Festival was in the most prosperous streets of Yudu City, and famous shops such as Cyclamen and Sihai Restaurant held activities.

Ning Youbei asked people to go out to inquire before. The activity of Sihai Restaurant is guessing riddles. A total of more than 100 exquisite lanterns have been made. There is a riddle on each lantern. As long as you guess correctly, you can take this lantern away.

The three most difficult lantern riddles are not anagrams but rebuses, and the lanterns with these three paintings were made by a famous lantern maker in Yudu. The paintings on the lanterns were drawn by a famous painter. The one who did the rebus was a student from the most famous academy in Yudu.

It is said that after the completion of these three rebuses, none of the students in the academy could guess them.

Su Chongjiu clamored to watch the lantern riddles after hearing it, and the other two children didn't object, so the matter was settled.

On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Ning Youbei, Qu Chu, Su Yingxue, Yan Hong and Deng Mingyu took their four children to watch the lantern.

The street was very lively, but everyone underestimated the enthusiasm of the people in Yudu.

It has only been a month since Ning Youbei led his army back to the court, and the people of Yudu still have a deep memory of him. As soon as the group got off the carriage near the Four Seas Restaurant, they were enthusiastically surrounded by the people.

"My lord, this is the wine I brewed myself, take it home and taste it."

"My lord, this is a purse I made, you accept it."

"My lord, can you leave me your pen and ink?"

"..."

Su Yingxue said to Qu Chu: "I won't go with you, we will act separately."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Qu Chu's response, he dragged Su Chongjiu away from the crowd and slipped away.

Deng Mingyu hugged Deng Huaning and followed Su Yingxue closely.

Qu Chu couldn't stand the people's enthusiasm either, she left Ning Youbei behind, "I'm leaving too."

Before Ning Youbei could speak, Qu Chu carried Ning Qingheng and ran away from the place where there were few people, Yanhong followed closely behind with Ning Qingyu.

Qu Chu managed to get out of the crowd, but Su Yingxue was missing.

"Shall we go to the Four Seas Restaurant? Ying Xue must have brought Chong Jiu there."

But before Qu Chu went to find someone, a voice rang out: "General Qu?"

Qu Chu looked back and saw that it was Jiaorui, Mrs. Hua and others, and it was Jiaorui who called "General Qu" just now.

Qu Chu nodded to Jiaorui, then asked Mrs. Hua: "When did the old lady come to Yudu?"

Mrs. Hua said:

"Received a reward from His Majesty a few years ago, and came to Yudu specially to thank you. The Hua family also has some property in Yudu, so they simply came to Yudu earlier to check the property in Yudu."

Qu Chu said:
"Originally, I was thinking of inviting you to the Chu Palace as a guest after the old lady arrived in Yudu, but I didn't expect the old lady to come earlier. Why don't you find a place to talk?"

Mrs. Hua said:

"Sihai Restaurant is nearby. I heard that his house has a lantern riddle guessing activity tonight. Why don't we go there to be lively?"
