Fair Lady

I don't know how Concubine Zhao spent the night, nor how she explained it to her two children. These are not issues that Qi Haoning needs to consider.Holding the small bundle containing the purse and belt in his arms, he was in a good mood and fell asleep soundly.

The most important thing is that he also had a good dream. In the dream, he was holding Feng Guanxia's Shuyao after paying homage, and Xi Po had just shouted "sent to the bridal chamber", and he was woken up by Yun Xiao, staring angrily, At least wait until he lifts the hipa on Yaoer's head and sees Yaoer's small face, can't he?

Yunxiao was wronged inexplicably, what did he do?It's just to wake up the master according to the agreed time.Every time the Lord leaves Beijing (except for the time when he sneaked away), he has to go to the palace to bid farewell to the emperor and queen mother.

After Qi Haoning finished washing, he looked at the clothes that Chunshi had selected in the suitcase according to his requirements, and nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, they all go well with that belt."

Chun Shi smiled happily: "It's good that the son is satisfied, that belt is so pretty."

When Chun Shi saw that belt last night, she couldn't help but marvel. In fact, the moiré pattern on the belt is not complicated and is very common, but it looks so different, as if it is suspended on the fabric. It looks like it was painted, and it fits very well.

The four maids were all good at embroidery, but they couldn't see the embroidering method of the belt, or they had never seen a similar embroidery method at all.

In the end, Chunshi resolved everyone's frustration with one sentence: "This belt is not ordinary at first glance, and the son of the world attaches so much importance to it, he even asked me to change all the robes he brought with it to match the color and pattern. It must have been rewarded by the Empress Dowager. If you want to come to the sewing room in the palace, where did the embroidery master come from?"

When Qi Haoning heard Chun Shi praise the belt for its beauty, and saw the other three maids nodding their heads in agreement, he was overjoyed: "That's right, there's no one in the world that looks better than it." The first belt Yao'er made for him is naturally incomparable.

Qi Haoning entered the palace and had breakfast with the Queen Mother, Princess Zhangzhu, and his younger sister Princess Yue, because he had to wait for the emperor to go to the imperial study to bid farewell and receive the secret order after the emperor came down, so he chatted and waited at the Palace of Compassion.When talking about Mrs. Yongping Hou's wife, Nan Gongmiao, who prepared two baskets of standing items and gifts for him, the queen mother praised the three siblings of the Xia family for being the most affectionate, and Nan Gongmiao is a good elder sister-in-law.He also said that Qi Haoning is lucky to have such a brother and sister-in-law of the Yue family.Let his mother die early, he can feel the warmth of his relatives more.

Qi Yueling proudly said: "I am also blessed. I have Sister Yao'er as my eldest sister-in-law. Sister Yao'er treats me very well. The most important thing is that I have the emperor's grandmother who loves me, and my father and brother are pampering me." .”

The queen mother was very happy: "Yes, yes, we, Yue'er, are the most blessed. Yue'er is the pistachio of Ai's family, little padded jacket, isn't it the most blessed?"

Qi Haoning looked good, and smiled, Princess Zhangzhu, who was half lying on the imperial concubine's couch, said with a smile: "Auntie's body looks very improved, I believe she won't have to lie down in a long time." Princess Zhangzhu is weak and easily fainting.Can't sit for a long time, and rarely stand.Most of the time is lying in bed or half sitting and half lying like this.

The Empress Dowager said comfortingly: "No, several imperial doctors said that your aunt was not seriously ill at first, but she was too worried, and her foundation was damaged last time she lost her baby. As long as you cooperate with recuperation from now on, you will definitely get better. Then The Japanese genius doctor Gao Mingde has also entered the palace. Together with several imperial physicians, he formulated a prescription and even gave your aunt acupuncture. By the way, Xiao Yaoer said that when she entered the palace in a few days, she would also bring a can of that for Zhangzhu... Honey. It is the exclusive secret recipe of Taoist priest Wu Zhenzi, and it is especially good for a woman's body."

Grandma Liu added with a smile: "Lafayette, it's Baihua nectar. This old servant thought about the effect of the empress's consumption of the can of longan and jujube honey, and felt that the princess must be in great health after taking Miss Yao'er's Baihua nectar. "

Princess Zhangzhu also smiled confidently: "For Ze'er, I also want to take good care of my body as soon as possible. Ning'er, the queen mother is right, Yao'er is a good girl, and she is still young, so she can see that her whole body They are all kind and good, you have to cherish them, don't be tricked by those Yingyingyanyans of Zhao's natal family. Oh, look at me, I'm confused, you're going to go right away Guangdong City, she can't figure it out even if she wants to, ha ha."

In the past six months, Concubine Zhao has brought girls from her natal family to Prince Yong's mansion one after another. Although there is nothing to criticize, everyone knows Sima Zhaozhi's heart. This is also a method that has been abused in the backyard of wealthy families.

Qi Haoning smiled and said: "Don't worry, aunt, Ning'er knows, the imperial grandmother mentioned Ning'er earlier in the morning."

……

The grandparents, aunts, nephews, and nephews were chatting cheerfully about family affairs when a young eunuch came to pass the word that the emperor had returned to the imperial study and summoned Ning Shizi.

When Qi Haoning arrived at the imperial study, Shu Jie was there too, smiling and nodding to him.

The emperor looked at Qi Haoning with a proud expression on his face: "Brother Huang sent you to Guangdong City, one is to let you avoid the Zhao family, and the other is to let you gain some experience, so that you don't really become an idle dude with high eyesight and low abilities. He also Unexpectedly, you grew up so fast, in just three years, not only won the champion of martial arts, but also became a unique general."

Qi Haoning respectfully kowtowed to the emperor: "It all depends on the instruction and encouragement of the emperor's uncle." Qi Haoning summoned him to the palace for a face-to-face training.Even during the few years when Qi Haoning had the worst reputation and was recognized as having no talent in civil and military affairs, but was withdrawn, arrogant and had a bad temper, the emperor did not despise him or give up on him.

The emperor nodded: "That also requires you to open your mind and brighten your eyes."

Over the years, the queen mother and the emperor did not directly prevent Qi Haoning from getting close to Concubine Zhao, or brought Qi Haoning into the palace, just to train him.Men are different from little girls who need to be pampered and protected, especially Qi Haoning has a special status.

Some things are useless to be pointed out by others. You must see, hear, and think for yourself, especially when you know people.If a person can't even tell whether the people around him are trustworthy or not, and whether the environment he is in is dangerous or not, he will only be confused by appearances. How can he talk about being loyal to the court and reassuring the emperor?

Prince Yong's Mansion has the only hereditary title of prince in the Great Zhou Dynasty so far. It is not only the emperor's trust in Prince Yong, but also an example for the emperor to set. As the son of Prince Yong, the next Prince Yong will be led astray by a concubine. , it should have been abandoned.

Therefore, it can be said that in the eyes of the emperor, Concubine Zhao is also a useful and real touchstone for Qi Haoning in his growth.

The emperor waved his hand, Dafuzi retreated with the two court ladies who were waiting beside him, and let the two young eunuchs who were guarding the door go down first, while he himself guarded the door of the imperial study.

The emperor looked at Qi Haoning and continued: "Ning'er, this time you go to Guangdong City, it will be several times more dangerous than the previous time. General Haiyong has his own responsibility, and he will no longer assume the responsibility of protecting you. Moreover, there are some things you can agree on. He discussed and worked together to complete some things, but you have to make up your own mind on some things, and don't let anyone know. Ning'er must remember that most of the time, you can only trust yourself."

Qi Haoning was slightly shocked, and bowed in response: "Yes, my nephew remembered."

Shujie handed a bamboo-shaped golden hairpin to Qi Haoning. As soon as Qi Haoning received it, he felt that the hairpin was hollow. He didn't say a word, and directly inserted it into the bun.

The emperor twitched the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, showing an invisible smile, and then said seriously: "You Ming got the information that spies have infiltrated Guangdong City, but it is not yet clear whether it is from the northeast (referring to the people of the Northern Qi King), or Japanese? How many people are there? The scope is relatively small, and there are three suspicious places, the South China Sea Governor’s Mansion, General Haiyong’s Mansion, or the side of the Water Dragon King. This matter is highly confidential and difficult for Shuyi. Contact Shujie directly, and the two of you will be responsible for this matter."

"Yes," Qi Haoning was a little excited, looking ready to fight.Although the Water Dragon King can't be underestimated, it's really not fun just dealing with those pirates!

After the emperor finished explaining, he asked Shujie to send Qi Haoning off, and went to have breakfast by himself.The emperor is not easy to do, and the diligent emperor is even harder.

Three carriages and a hundred elite soldiers were already waiting at the gate of the palace. These people were all Qi Haoning's personal guards.Shujie finally explained in a soft voice: "Ning'er, be careful in everything, keep vigilant at all times, don't be careless, and don't underestimate the enemy."

Qi Haoning hurriedly responded: "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely keep it in mind. I promised Yao'er that I will come back safely before she dies." After speaking, he smiled brightly and flew on the horse... (To be continued. If you like this work, You are welcome to vote for recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
