The world is heavy and late

Chapter 371
Gu Weiyun and Xia Qing chatted about homework, during which Xia Qing also ordered a bowl of fishbone soup cakes, which contained seven kinds of fish, which was very luxurious.

Gu Weiyun was very happy to hear Xia Qing's story about the college, and finally said: "I have to take a good look at them at the annual banquet to see if it is the same as what you said."

Xia Qing nodded and said, "It's not difficult for other people, but Cao Yiru, you probably won't see it."

Gu Weiyun chuckled and said, "I'm a queen, why can't I appoint a concubine to enter the palace?"

Xia Qing looked up and pretended: "Tsk tsk, you are really domineering."

Gu Weiyun glared at Xia Qing. She felt that after she became a mother, many of her small thoughts in the past gradually disappeared, but she didn't know what happened to this person, why she became more and more out of tune when she left the palace.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help bringing up the old story again: "Are you really not going to adopt a child? I heard that after the year, the Song family will be sent to the academy. You and Mr. Xu are empty and lonely."

Xia Qing took a deep breath, and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, what happened to your Textile Bureau recently? Why Xu He didn't come home for half a month."

Gu Weiyun glanced at Xia Qing, thought for a while, waved away all the maids in the palace, and said, "You really can't guess?"

Xia Qing's face changed a little, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Could they be building armaments?"

What else can make Gu Weiyun do this? The Textile Bureau has always been the most inconspicuous among female officials and women's schools. Although most people who have met Xu He now have almost guessed that the Textile Bureau is the handicraft of the palace, but Baiguan I don't know the profit, I just think that the emperor wants to buy some properties, so no one is watching.

What kind of thing was that that made Xu He so busy that he didn't go back to Xu's house for half a month.

Gu Weiyun sighed and nodded. No one wants to fight the war, but sometimes no one can stop it.

Xia Qing then asked, "Is it Suzhou?"

Gu Weiyun glanced at her and said, "Yes."

Xia Qing closed her eyes, and began to worry about Song Qi, that second-rate kid sincerely.

Of course Gu Weiyun knew it too, so he could only comfort him: "Don't worry, His Majesty is now considering who will lead the troops to support him."

Xia Qing sighed and said: "Song Qi has never been on the battlefield, I always worry about his temper..."

Gu Weiyun cut off with a smile: "What is his temper? He is almost thirty this year, and he is not a child. What are you worried about?"

Speaking of which, Qiao Huan also brought in the fishbone soup cakes, and the two of them simply stopped discussing this matter.

The moment he put the lid together, Xia Qing couldn't help but swallowed and nodded, "This is too fragrant."

Qiao Huan handed the chopsticks to Xia Qing with a smile, and Xia Qing started to inhale the wind with the chopsticks, and she was eating breakfast now.

Gu Weiyun couldn't laugh or cry: "If you didn't eat breakfast, why didn't you tell me earlier, you are so hungry."

Xia Qing inhaled a mouthful of soup cakes, shook his head happily, and waited until he swallowed all the soup cakes in his mouth before saying: "They are cleaning the yard, the sky is full of dust, I can't eat it, so I come to you to eat it Just one meal, it's a New Year's greeting."

Gu Weiyun said: "I also asked the secretary to prepare some food that you like, and I will send someone to send a letter to Mr. Xu, and we will have dinner together later."

Xia Qing asked: "And the emperor."

Gu Weiyun sighed helplessly: "Why do you still remember His Majesty's hatred? I don't even remember that incident."

Xia Qing shrugged and said, "That was different, I will always remember it. And he oppressed our father-in-law."

Gu Weiyun couldn't help but speak for the emperor: "Your Majesty is also very tired."

Xia Qing cleverly changed the topic, and the two of them chatted about something.

His Royal Highness Jing Ning, who heard the news after a while, also rushed over. As soon as he saw Xia Qing, he rushed over and said, "Aunt Qing."

Xia Qing also took Jing Ning and hugged her in her arms, then said to Gu Weiyun, "Jing Ning will be six years old in a few years, time flies so fast."

The prince who came in after him saluted the queen first and said, "Looking at you, you are still out of tune."

Xia Qing pursed her lips and stood up to salute the prince. The prince nodded and sat on the stool Qiao Huan brought. They chatted for a while, and the prince left.

Xia Qing looked at the prince's back and sighed, "A 13-year-old child, why does he look gloomy?"

Jing Ning in his arms said, "Brother Huang is so busy now that he doesn't have time to go out with me every day."

Gu Weiyun pulled Jing Ning over, nodded his nose and said, "Then you are still clinging to let your imperial brother teach you to read?"

Jing Ning smiled shyly, and said carefreely: "Brother Prince still has time to teach me."

Xia Qing was very happy watching from the side, and when Jing Ning couldn't help but run out after a while, she said: "I never thought that you and His Majesty could have such a silly and sweet son, it's too careless No lungs."

Gu Weiyun rubbed his forehead with a headache and said: "Don't talk about it, he can't even bully his sister, and his sister is just a clever ghost."

As he spoke, he couldn't help complaining about his son, but in the end he started to score twice, urging Xia Qing and Xu Zhong to adopt a child.

Xia Qing looked at the sky speechlessly, she thought she could ask Qiao Huan later what happened during the year she was out of the palace, and why Gu Weiyun became like this.

Xia Qing didn't last long under such an offensive, and avoided Gu Weiyun's worries about Xia Qing's future on the grounds that he wanted to visit Hu Sizheng.

When he saw Hu Sizheng, he didn't actually talk about anything. He just talked about the recent situation in the palace. Seeing Hu Sizheng's gray temples and coughing all the time, Xia Qing felt a little sad.

"I remember the first time I met Si Zheng, it was only six or seven years ago. At that time, Si Zheng looked so majestic and dared to argue with His Majesty."

Hu Qiong has been lying in bed most of the time now, she smiled, a flash of reminiscence flashed in her cloudy eyes, then turned her head and said: "Actually, the first time I met Mrs. Xu, I thought Mrs. Xu was very extraordinary."

"With so many people watching, the average little maid would have been scared to death long ago, but you can still act like a normal person."

Xia Qing smiled and said: "At that time, I was young and frivolous, and I was too reckless. Now that I think about it, my life was saved with the help of others."

Hu Sizheng coughed twice, looked at Xia Qing and said, "At that time, Mr. Xu was so anxious that his eyes were red."

Xia Qing was slightly surprised that Hu Sizheng noticed it so early?

Even though Hu Sizheng was seriously ill, he caught Xia Qing's fleeting expression, smiled, picked up the tea on the table, moistened his throat and said: "At that time, Mr. Xu was really deeply in love. I acted like a normal person, and I thought to myself that Mr. Xu was wishful thinking, and now it seems that I am a frog at the bottom of the well."

Xia Qing smiled and didn't say anything. Hu Sizheng had another heart-piercing cough. Xia Qing couldn't help but stepped forward to serve Hu Sizheng with a cup to moisten his throat. Hu Sizheng held Xia Qing's hand tightly. .

After a heavy panting, he said: "Ma'am, I have always admired you. I am an old guy who is useless, and my apprentice's head is not smart. I know that you promoted her because of my old face. But I still want to ask you to take care of my apprentice."

Xia Qing opened his mouth, Hu Sizheng shook his head and said: "I know she is not a material for big things, and I have been helping her all these years. She is reckless and suffers a lot in this palace. Madam, please don't be as knowledgeable as her ..."

While talking, he couldn't help coughing again, Xia Qing nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, Sizheng, Peng Sizheng is strict and self-restraining, and nothing will happen."

Hu Sizheng breathed a sigh of relief, Xia Qing waited for the man to sleep before going out, and when he opened the door, he saw Peng Sizheng coming with a bowl of medicine, as if he was afraid of making a mistake.

She raised her eyes and was somewhat surprised that Xia Qing appeared here, but she nodded and said, "Aunt Xia."

Xia Qing looked at the medicine in her hand, smiled and said, "Go in quickly."
