Snowy Chang'an Road

Wei Shao looked around and saw that everything was normal, and his nervous expression eased.

"Shao'er, what happened? Why are you in such a panic?"

"Grandpa, nothing happened. I saw the general's horse outside the palace, so I wanted to come in and see him."

Pei Ying walked to Wei Shao and said, "Sit down first, Yun Rou, and serve tea to the prince."

"promise."

Wei Shao sat down opposite Ba and Yitu.

"General, it's hard work running around. If you don't take a good rest, what are you doing here at my palace?"

Ba and Yitu were not embarrassed, and replied with a smile: "I think the King of Peking must have met my sister Shanshan?"

"I met him once."

"Although my sister and the princess have only met once, they are very close to each other. They knew that I was going to be an envoy to the Wei Dynasty this time, so they asked me to bring a gift to the princess before leaving."

"what gift?"

"A painting and an eagle."

Wei Shao took the painting and started to look at it.

Ba Heyitu ordered people to bring the eagle in, and Pei Ying recognized the eagle as the one raised by Shanshan.

Pei Ying asked: "What did Dalan say?"

"No, my sister just said this is a gift, and the princess will definitely like it."

"Thank you sister for me. I was in a hurry today and I couldn't prepare the gift. I will deliver it another day. Please help me, general, take it back to the north and give it to the Dalan family."

"it is good."

Deng Guogong saw several people very good at talking, and he didn't say much.

Wei Shao thought of what His Majesty said in the palace.

"General, I am entering the palace today. His Majesty said that he will host a banquet for you in Weiyang Palace in three days. Before that, let me take you around Chang'an City. Is there anywhere you want to go, General?"

"The guest does as the host does."

"Okay, then I will make arrangements."

Due to Ba and Yitu's special status, everyone did not stay with him to eat. Ba and Yitu also understood that, after saying a few words, they sat for a while and left.

Seeing him walk away, Wei Shao, Chang'an's jealousy jar, was overturned.

"A woman cannot meet her husband in private."

"I'm not private, my grandfather is here too."

"I don't think you look like a woman at all."

"Wei Shao, look at how jealous you are. You don't look like an upright man at all now."

Hearing this, Wei Shao suddenly approached Pei Ying and said, "Don't you know whether I am a man or not? I cannot stand up to the sky or stand on the ground."

Damn, Pei Yi even understood it.

"rogue."

Seeing that Pei Ying wanted to leave, Wei Shao took her wrist and said, "I will take you to a good place tomorrow."

"Where?"

"Secret."

The next day, Wei Shao and Pei Ying got up very early. Pei Ying stood in front of the big bronze mirror, and Yunrou was helping her sort out her clothes.

Wei Shao stared at her slender waist, lost in thought.

"Yunrou, you go out first."

"promise."

After hearing the prince's words, Yunrou retreated wisely, and Pei Ying knew that he was planning to do something wrong again.

So when Wei Shao approached her, she cautiously kept a certain distance from him. "what you up to?"

"Don't be nervous, I have to go out today, what can I do?"

After hearing Wei Shao's answer, Pei Ying still did not let down his guard. In other respects, Wei Shao's words had a certain degree of credibility, but in this matter, Wei Shao had almost no credibility with Pei Ying.

"I can't believe some of the things you are saying now."

Hearing what she said, Wei Shao just smiled and asked: "Madam, why is there no movement in your stomach after such a long time?"

Pei Ying felt a little guilty, but she still replied calmly: "I'm not a doctor, how could I know such a thing?"

Wei Shao had some doubts about himself, especially when he saw that Pei Sheng and Yong Qiang were pregnant one after another, which invisibly put some pressure on him.

Is he really not good at it?

Or is there something wrong with her?

"We should work harder on this matter. Your sister is already ahead of you, so we must keep up."

"But didn't you promise me not to force me to have a child?"

"I didn't force it."

Pei Ying didn't speak, just looked at him with a faint look, guess whether I believe what you said.

But Pei Ying also knew that infertility was due to the effect of birth control decoction. She changed the subject and said: "Don't dwell on this matter. Didn't you say you wanted to take me somewhere today? Where is it?"

"You'll know when it arrives."

Because of the presence of the Huns envoys, the traveling team that originally only had a few people instantly grew to dozens of people.

Everyone left Chang'an City and walked eastward to the bank of Ba River. At the beginning of spring, the vegetation began to sprout green fangs, and the breath of spring had already sprouted.

Heading east along the Bashui River and out of Chang'an City, the population gradually becomes sparse.

"Wei Shao, there is no one here. Why did you bring us here?"

"Don't be impatient, it's almost here."

Ba and Yitu looked at the stretching mountains in front of them and the plain river at their feet, which were completely different from the endless scenery on their grasslands.

"Princess, don't be anxious. On our grassland, sometimes you can walk for a whole day without seeing anyone. Although your city of Chang'an is prosperous, there are too many people and it seems very crowded. It is better here because it is sparsely populated and inviting. Be open-minded.”

"As long as the general likes it."

Wei Shao listened to the dialogue between Pei Yan and Bahe Yitu, and involuntarily played himself in his heart.

It's really hard to guess a woman's thoughts when she speaks softly to a foreign man, but fiercely to herself.

Zheng Guan was the magistrate of Yaliu County, sixty miles south of Chang'an City. Under the emperor's feet, even the county magistrate felt that his status was much nobler than that of his colleagues in other counties.

Although it was an order from Chang'an City to plant willows along the river, Zheng Guan was not particularly concerned about such a trivial matter, but today he came to the river for the first time to inquire about the status of the willow planting.

Originally, Wei Shao didn't want to inform him in advance, but with Ba and Yitu around, he was worried that something would go wrong, so he sent someone to send the news yesterday.

In early spring, the oncoming cold wind was still a bit icy, but it did not affect the digging of pits and planting willows on both sides of the river. Zheng Guan was patrolling back and forth, and everyone was working very hard.

Zheng Guan's eyes looked west from time to time, waiting for the nobles of Chang'an City.

"Wei Shao, are the willow trees by the river newly planted?"

Looking at the pit filled with the new soil and the moist soil under his feet, Pei Yan asked curiously.

"Yes."

Pei Ying seemed to have thought of something in her mind, but she didn't say it out loud. She just glanced at Wei Shao and saw that he was looking at her firmly, and Pei Ying understood instantly.

"King Peiping, what are we doing here?"

"The general doesn't know. It is a custom among the people of Wei Dynasty that every spring, when the sun is shining brightly, we go out for a spring outing. Today I am taking the general and my wife out for a spring outing."

Hearing his explanation, Pei Ying smiled in her heart. She was really fooling around with her mouth. Calculating according to the season, the spring outing would be at least a month away.

Ba Heyitu nodded. He had heard about the elegance of the Han people, and it was indeed true when he saw it today.

In such a depressing scene, there are still so many things to pay attention to.
