The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 516
The journey was smooth, and the couple traveled for five or six days before arriving in the capital.

Back at Zhen Guogong Mansion, Ping Yang first went to Anxi Hall and Luo An Hall to pay his respects to the two mothers-in-law, then hurriedly returned to Xianglin Garden to see the children who miss him day and night.

Sister Qing was studying in the palace and hadn't come back yet, when the two little ones saw Pingyang, they happily flung themselves into her arms and acted like a baby, chattering endlessly.

Li Xiang looked at the children with crooked eyebrows, and said gently: "Your mother is tired from the journey, let her rest for a while, after dinner, father and mother will accompany you to play in the garden."

The two children were sensible, and after hearing Li Xiang's words, they obediently followed the wet nurse out.

The water for bathing had already been prepared, and after the children went out, Pingyang had time to go in and wash the dust. The road was full of dust and dust, and although bathing was possible in posthouses, it was not as comfortable as at home.

During the bath time in Pingyang, Mei's wet nurse brought Mei Mei over to greet her after hearing the news. When Li Xiang saw the young girl, he hugged her on his knees and was asking the wet nurse about Mei's daily life. Living, looked up to see Pingyang out of the bathroom.

Because she just took a bath, she was only wearing a light pink undershirt. The fresh and tender color made her skin more beautiful than the snow. Standing in the sunlight coming in from the rhombic window, she was so beautiful that people couldn't move their eyes away.

"Father, can I go and say hello to my mother?"

Li Xiang stared blankly at Pingyang, and couldn't help but stare straight away. He didn't come back to his senses until Sister Mei called him.

Ping Yang came out of the inner room slowly, and said: "Is it Sun Nanny who brought Sister Mei here?"

Grandma Sun standing at the door of the outer room respectfully saluted: "I heard that my wife is back, I brought my sister and son to pay my respects to my wife."

When Sister Mei saw Pingyang, she slid off Li Xiang's lap, walked up to Pingyang, reached out and stroked her waist-hanging hair, opened her eyes wide and said, "Mother, you are so pretty."

Children are simple-minded, and they praise people from the bottom of their hearts.

Pingyang looked down at the little girl's eyes that were as clear as water, she smiled, raised her hand to touch her soft little face, and then told Yuzhu: "Bring the snacks we brought back from Yizhou to my sister." Some, and those clothes materials, also take out two horses."

The nanny hurriedly tugged at Sister Mei and said, "I haven't thanked Madam yet."

Sister Mei is the same age as Brother Heng, but only five years old. When she heard the words, she turned her head to look at the nurse, her big clear eyes suddenly flashed and asked in doubt: "Mother gave me something, should I thank you?"

Mammy frowned and said, "Of course I have to thank you."

Sister Mei was even more puzzled: "My mother gave things to my sisters, and I haven't seen them say thank you."

The child is still young, whether there is a biological mother by her side, although she is also aware that she is different from her sisters, but after all, she can't tell the difference clearly. In addition, Pingyang is also kind to her, which makes the child feel that she and Sister Qing are calling each other. Pingyang's "mother" is not very different.

Pingyang stopped the wet nurse, and only ordered: "It's almost autumn, the nuns take the material back and order them to cut new clothes for my sister."

Although Pingyang was born in a prince's family, she has a pure temperament. Although Li Xiang and Jiao Xing had hurt her deeply, Pingyang never angered innocent children because of this, and she did not treat sister Mei harshly at all.

It has been a long time to see people's hearts, and the attitude of Pingyang towards sister Mei is obvious to all people in the Zhen Guo government.

The nanny got Pingyang's order, and she didn't blame Sister Mei anymore, she just agreed with a smile, and took Sister Mei down.

Li Xiang poured a cup of tea for Pingyang, and said: "You are tired from the journey, you go to rest, and I will call you again at dinner."

Ping Yang just took a bath, she was thirsty, she stretched out her hand to take the tea brought by Li Xiang and drank it in one gulp, promised him, then turned around and went to the inner room to go to bed.

Li Xiang followed his heels, he saw Ping Yang go to bed, Li Xiang raised his hand and closed the window in the inner room: "It's almost autumn, the wind is cool, you should close it when you sleep."

Pingyang didn't make a sound, maybe she was too tired, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Knowing that the husband and wife had returned, Xu Wanning came to find Pingyang at night. The two sisters-in-law talked for a long time, and they made an appointment to visit Jingshu together in the palace the next day.

Jing Shu is now a queen, it is not easy to go out of the palace, so Xu Wanning and Pingyang often go to the palace to reminisce about the past, and Pingyang has been in Yizhou for more than a month, so naturally she will enter the palace after returning.

After breakfast on the second day, Xu Wanning took Brother Ping to Xianglin Garden and walked with Pingyang. After leaving the second gate, he saw that the carriages and horses for entering the palace had been prepared, and Li Xiang, who was wearing an official uniform, was standing in front of the carriage. Talk to Sister Qing.

Xu Wanning smiled and said, "The third brother didn't go to court today?"

Seeing Pingyang and Xu Wanning coming out, Li Xiang first helped his eldest daughter into the car, and said: "I just came back yesterday, you must allow me to rest for a day."

Xu Wanning joked: "I heard your elder brother say that you are very diligent in your work, even the Holy Majesty praises you, what's the matter? Just when you made some progress, you thought about being lazy again?"

Li Xiang smiled and replied: "How can I be lazy, I am waiting to enter the palace with you, I will go to the imperial study room to see the emperor in the next half an hour."

As he spoke, he raised his hand to help Ping Yang get into the carriage, and then helped Xu Wanning get into the carriage. Brother Ping also got on the horse. Before the carriage started, he had already straddled the horse and rushed out of the house.

Xu Wanning quickly leaned on the car window and called to her son, "Brother Ping, please be more careful."

As she spoke, she sighed slightly, shook her head and said, "This kid has grown up from a young age. If he can have half of Brother Kun's composure, I'll be relieved."

Ping Yang asked: "I was just about to ask you, why didn't I see brother Kun, I didn't see him at my grandmother's place yesterday."

Xu Wanning replied: "He has gone to northern Xinjiang."

"Didn't the Holy Majesty send some generals to go to northern Xinjiang to experience training? This kid insisted on following him, oops! There are barbarians coming to disturb you from time to time. I entrusted him to your cousin Pei to take care of him." , although this child is calm, he is still young after all, so I don't worry about it."

Ping Yang smiled and said: "Brother Kun has always been ambitious, so don't hold him back."

As he said that, he asked Xu Wanning: "I heard from your grandmother yesterday that you were already seeing your wife for Brother Kun?"

"Isn't it a little early?"

Xu Wanning replied: "He will lose the crown next year, it's not too early, but I just pay attention first, and I'm not in a hurry to make a decision."

Ping Yang couldn't help sighing: "Time is so fast, you will be a mother-in-law soon, hehe, aren't we all old?"

Xu Wanning cast an angry look at Pingyang: "You're only in your early twenties, it's too early to say that, after your Brother Heng gets married, you'll be right to talk about old age."
