After the divorce, I became the Lord of the Six Houses

Chapter 187
When we returned to the Hou Mansion, it was already dark.

Not long after Su Jingyan and the others returned to the Hou's Mansion, Xie Heng returned with the baby girl in his arms.

Seeing Xie Heng returning to the Hou Mansion with the baby girl in her arms, Su Jingyan asked, "Where's Yu Wenzhou?"

Xie Heng cupped his hands and replied: "Your Majesty, empress, I am incompetent and let Yu Wenzhou escape."

Xiao Yi looked at Xie Heng and said, "Is it Yu Wenzhou who you are incompetent or let go on purpose?"

Xie Heng said: "The minister is incompetent."

Xiao Yi said coldly: "Since you are incompetent, you should be punished. I will punish you with one year's salary and ten army sticks!"

Su Jingyan did not help Xie Heng to intercede. Since Xie Heng was able to find the baby girl, it is absolutely impossible to find Yu Wenzhou. In order to protect his brother, he did not hesitate to deceive the king and only fined him one year's salary It's been taken lightly.

Xie Heng took the order to retreat.

Su Jingyan hugged the baby girl who was already crying hoarsely in her arms, feeling very distressed, coaxing the baby: "This time I have wronged you."

Xiao Yi walked to Su Jingyan's side and saw the baby girl, "Whose girl is she?"

Su Jing said: "She is an abandoned baby thrown in Baishan Hall. She is healthy and free of disease. It should be when Xiao Ting rebelled, when her family fled Luoyang, she was abandoned in Baishan Hall."

Xiao Yi said: "Since that's the case, let her be a playmate with Niannianfu."

Su Jingyan thought so too. After Su Jingyan asked the nanny to take the baby girl down, the room was very quiet for a while.

Yingchun and the others had already left the room very tactfully.

The candle was dimly lit, Xiao Yi endured it for a long time, but now he couldn't bear it anymore, he hugged Su Jingyan in his arms, and kissed the red lips he had been looking forward to for so many months.

After a long time, Su Jingyan was picked up and placed on the bed.

The bed curtain fell, covering the room full of spring light, and it took almost half an hour to rest.

Su Jingyan was lying in Xiao Yi's arms, through the light coming from outside the bed veil, she reached out and touched the red mole on his shoulder blade, "There is also this red mole on Niannian's shoulder."

Xiao Yi stretched out his hand to hold Su Jingyan's hand and said, "Yu Wenzhou said it was a symbol of the Northern Wei royal family, and Yu Wenzhou's misunderstanding that the baby girl didn't have a red mole on her body was even deeper."

Su Jingyan looked at Xiao Yi and said, "You didn't recognize this little baby girl before, isn't it Nian Nian? When you see that the baby girl has no red moles on her body, you won't suspect that I betrayed you, right?"

Xiao Yi said: "Doubting you has never happened before. I would rather believe that there will be no red moles all of a sudden, and I will not suspect that you betrayed me."

Su Jingyan smiled knowingly, and gradually fell asleep in Xiao Yi's arms.

Looking at Su Jingyan in his arms, Xiao Yi couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He missed her so much, and wished he could look at her a few more times to make up for the separation during this time.

Xiao Yi suddenly felt wet in his arms, and upon closer inspection, Su Jingyan was crying in his sleep.

When Su Jingyan woke up in the middle of the night, she cried aloud.

"Ayan, what's the matter?"

Su Jingyan woke up when she heard a familiar voice, hugged Xiao Yi and couldn't stop her tears and said, "I dreamed about the time when you died again, and I thought you hadn't come back yet."

Xiao Yi coaxed Su Jing softly and said: "It's my fault, I should fight Yu Wenzhou to the death, I shouldn't make you worry about me for so long."

Xiao Yi thinks that Su Jingyan probably woke up crying in the middle of the night during this period, and she can be seen to have lost weight, even thinner than before her birthday.

Seeing Xiao Yi at the side, Su Jingyan said amidst his comforting voice: "I don't care if Yu Wenzhou's intention is for your own good or not, I won't spare him!"

Xiao Yi said: "Well, I won't care about his nephew's affection for him anymore, you can sleep peacefully, tomorrow you have to go to Qiantang to find Nian Nian."

Only then did Su Jingyan rest in Xiao Yi's arms with peace of mind.

……

In the main courtyard of the Hou Mansion, Song Xi was forced to kneel at the door of the room. When he heard the sound of knocking on the watch, it was over, and there was heavy snow falling from the sky. Song Xi who was kneeling on the ground was very helpless.

Inside the house, Xiao Qianya was also tossing and turning sleeplessly. Seeing that Xiao Qianya was still awake, the servant girl walked up to her and said, "Master, it's snowing outside, and Lord Hou is still kneeling outside."

Xiao Qianya only felt relieved when she heard the heavy snow outside, "Let him kneel!"

Xiao Qianya didn't sleep all night until dawn, so she went to the guest courtyard to give Xiao Yi the clothes that had been hurriedly made overnight in the tailor shop outside.

Su Jingyan had just washed up, and seeing Xiao Qianya's extremely pale complexion, she said, "You haven't slept all night? It's hard to hide your complexion even if you put on makeup."

Xiao Qianya said: "You are angry with Song Xi, are you going to Qiantang today?"

Su Jingyan nodded and said: "Well, you are still in Qiantang every year. If you have nothing to do, why not go to Qiantang with me?"

Xiao Qianya said: "It's easy for me to go, and the two children can't be taken to Qiantang, so I won't go with you for now, but if you return to Luoyang, you must come to Huizhou City again."

Su Jingyan responded, "I will definitely come."

It only takes one day to walk from Huizhou City to Qiantang by water, but last night it snowed and the river was frozen and it was impossible to walk by water, so the group chose to go by land to Qiantang.

In the carriage, Su Jingyan and Xiao Yi talked about the situation in the court in the past few months, and also talked with Xiao Yi about some important events.

Xiao Yi was filled with indignation when he heard that the entire Beishan Army was wiped out, and clenched his hands tightly. He almost captured Xiao Ting alive. If it wasn't for Yu Wenzhou's poisonous plan, the Beishan Army would have returned to the court triumphantly.

Seeing Xiao Yi's reddened eyes, Su Jingyan stretched out her hand to hold Xiao Yi's hand tightly and said, "The courtiers were going to punish the Beishan Army, but I think the Beishan Army died loyally and bravely. They have given them meritorious service and a lot of rewards." Pensions and let the government treat their survivors kindly.

Many of their corpses were burnt and unrecognizable, so I let them be buried at the Holy Mountain, and set up a martyr's tomb there, and specially sent people to watch the tombs at the Holy Mountain. You can also go to the Holy Mountain after you go back. Worship and worship. "

Xiao Yi trembled slightly and said, "Yu Wenzhou really deserves death!"

Su Jingyan added: "There is a lot of waste waiting to be done in Xiliang. I sent Qiu Yuan to continue to lead the army to guard Xiliang. The shortage of officials in Xiliang made those high school students who took the scientific examination last year go to Xiliang to become officials."

Xiao Yi said, "Why don't we send some experienced officials there?"

Su Jing said: "The poor places in Xiliang are full of barbarians, to make the people of Xiliang submit to me, Datang must teach them to learn Datang's characters, it must be difficult.

If you were looking for experienced officials, you might dislike that place and would not treat it sincerely. And when the students who have just entered the court are full of confidence, let them go to Xiliang and they will definitely work hard to govern Xiliang. "

Xiao Yi said: "That's true."

This journey was not easy. The mountain road from Huizhou to Qiantang was covered by heavy snow and it took a whole day to reach Dongyang.

As the sky was getting dark, Xiao Yi proposed to spend the night at the inn in Dongyang City. Su Jingyan also thought it would be better to rest overnight, so she asked Yingchun to book a room in the inn.

During the first month of the month, there were not many guests in the inn, and it was not difficult to get a place to stay.

Su Jingyan and Xiao Yi entered the inn, and asked his subordinates and guards to rest and eat.

After ordering the food and wine, Su Jingyan looked out the window. The scenery of the inn facing the lake is very good. The Lantern Festival is coming and the outside is full of lanterns, shining the stars in the lake.

Before the food and wine were served, a woman's charming voice came from outside, "Shopkeeper, my lady is going to take over the entire inn and drive away everyone from your side!"

Hearing the words, the shopkeeper went to the door repeatedly, saw the maid in front of him and said, "My lady, the shop has been taken over by a nobleman, please find another inn for your lady."

A gorgeously dressed woman came out from behind the servant girl, she said: "Drive them away, there is no inn in Jiangnan that I, Chen Qiwu, can't afford. Is this money enough to buy your restaurant!"

Su Jingyan heard the word Chen Qiwu and looked towards the door of the inn. The name was similar to Chen Qitong.

Chen Qiwu, isn't this also her cousin?
