Horse on the World

Chapter 973 New Year's Eve
With a bang, a firework exploded in the night sky, and the gorgeous flowers were particularly eye-catching in the night. One flower hadn't dissipated, but the other bloomed next to it, and the Taoyuan Xiaozhu was reflected. Colorful shrinkage.
Wrapped in thick fur, Bao'er looked up at the fireworks in the sky, clapped her hands and shouted happily: "My lord, it's so beautiful!" The girl Qian'er on the side looked at Bao'er nervously, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't you Jump, beware of the children!"
It's 29 tonight, and tomorrow will be New Year's Eve.
"My lord, are you really not going back to the palace for the Chinese New Year this year?" Bao'er asked in a low voice, holding Li Qing's big hand.

Li Qing nodded, "If you don't come back, I will celebrate the New Year in Taoyuan Xiaozhu this year, and I won't go back to the palace. Bao'er, please bring your parents and call your younger brother, how about letting them celebrate the New Year with us?"

"Really? Can I really bring my parents here?" Bao'er cried happily.
"What's wrong!" Li Qing said with a smile, "Taoyuan Xiaozhu is so big, can't it accommodate them?" He stretched out his hand and scratched Bao'er's small and firm nose, "After watching the fireworks, it's getting late, you Go back and rest early, don't be tired!"

"En!" Bao'er responded obediently, and with Qian'er's support, she walked slowly towards her residence.

"My lord, it's getting late, you should go back and rest too!" Han Yong, who was waiting on the side, took a step forward and said.
"Let's go around, I have approved too many papers these days, and my mind is a bit blurred, let the cold wind blow, sober up!" Li Qing smiled and said, "Is your father's injury better?"
"Thank you, my lord, for your concern. After my father returned to Dingzhou, Dr. Huan went for a follow-up visit and prescribed a prescription. Now he can walk around in the field, but he can't do anything with others. Dr. Huan said, at least six months later. months before it can be restored."

"Well, what kind of medicine do you want? It's not easy to buy outside. Even if you go to the palace to look for it, your father is not young. This time he suffered such a serious injury. It is not as good as when he was young. If you are not careful, you will fall to the root of the disease." of."
"Thank you, my lord!" Han Yong said with tears of gratitude.

Han Yong held the lantern and illuminated the road for Li Qing. The two walked casually in the small building in Taoyuan. As they walked, Li Qing suddenly stopped and looked at a house in front of him. Unknowingly, Li Qing He went to the side of Qingfeng's usual residence.
Laughing silently, Li Qing strode over.

"Han Yong, you have been with Qingfeng for a long time, are you usually afraid of her?" Li Qing asked.
Han Yong was stunned, this question is not easy to answer, he thought for a while, before he said: "Miss Yuxia, with leniency and strictness, the general will be very respectful."

Li Qing laughed, "The standard answer is equivalent to saying nothing. Forget it, I won't force you."

Han Yong smiled awkwardly and stopped making a sound. Li Qing strode over, "Qingfeng liked to grow some flowers and plants, especially acacia flowers, but since he came back from Lianshan Island, he has become obsessed with growing vegetables. You see Look, the vegetables she planted are growing so well!" Li Qing stretched out his hand to push away the snow, pulled out a radish from the soil, rubbed it with the snow a few times, raised it to his mouth, and bit it. "Well, yes, after the freezing snow, this radish is very crispy and delicious! Would you like one too?"

"Thank you, my lord!" Han Yong took a bite of the radish pulled out by Li Qing, "It's crispy, crispy and sweet."
Li Qing laughed, "Han Yong, you haven't even cleaned the mud, why are you so nervous? Sigh, this year Qingfeng won't come back for the New Year, let me do the math, she hasn't been back to Dingzhou for the New Year for a few years?"

Han Yong said: "Miss is currently busy dealing with Zhang Aimin's surrender in Minzhou, and there is indeed no time to come back for the New Year!"
"Han Yong, why do I feel that Qingfeng has changed a lot in the past year?" Li Qing pondered, "It's just that after Qingfeng went to Ningzhou for a few months, when I returned to Dingzhou, I felt that Qingfeng has changed a lot. You have been by her side all the time, was there anything special during those days in Ningzhou?"

Hearing Li Qing's sudden question, Han Yong's brain exploded, and sweat immediately oozes from his forehead. Fortunately, it was night and the lights were dim. If it was daytime, he would have to show his true colors.

"This, this, my lord, I don't know." Han Yong stammered.

"Well, why are you nervous?" Li Qing gave him a strange look, "But I like Qingfeng better now. For example, she didn't participate in this incident. If Qingfeng really got involved, Bao'er I'm afraid the child in the womb won't be kept, Jiyue and Yanran are still a little too tender."

Han Yong felt sweat protruding from his back, bit his lip tightly, and remained silent.Li Qing didn't expect him to say anything either, a slightly smarter subordinate wouldn't answer such a thing.

"The radishes and cabbages here are at the right time. Tomorrow, you can tidy up some and send them to Minzhou for Qingfeng. When she comes back, the season will be over. She won't be able to eat them anymore." Li Qingdao.

"Ah?" Han Yong was startled, "But my lord, I am your personal bodyguard now, I am leaving, by your side?"

Li Qing waved his hand, "I will transfer Li Wu back to be my personal guard. Besides, Dingzhou is my base camp. How can I be in danger here? Qingfeng is in Minzhou, which is not a peaceful place." , Qiuping knows that Xia Xue is a woman after all, so I'd feel more at ease if you rush over."

"Yes, my lord, I'm leaving tomorrow."
Li Qing patted him on the shoulder, "Isn't it too much to ask you to leave tomorrow, or you can't go until the next year?"
Han Yong said: "The general will leave tomorrow. There is nothing in the family. Although the father is injured, there is still the mother and a few aunts. It will still be very lively."

"Okay, tell Qingfeng, after the new year, it's over there, come back!"
"Yes, I will definitely tell the lady at the end!"
"Go, I'll rest here tonight." Li Qing patted the dirt on his hands and strode towards the room.

On New Year's Eve, Wei Gang came over early in the morning. The first day of the Lunar New Year was the happy day when Huanxi and Mingyan got married. Wei Gang was familiar with etiquette and was named by Li Qing as the host of the big wedding. Mingyan's natal family was placed in the office of the Overwatch Council in the city, and Mingyan had been living there. In the past few days, the usually gloomy and heavily guarded office of the Overwatch Council was full of joy, dressed in red and green, lively and busy. Today's Wei Gang is here to report to Li Qing.

Listening to Wei Gang talking about tomorrow's arrangements one by one, Li Qing nodded again and again, "Master Huan has made great contributions to our Dingzhou, and many of our generals were killed by him, let alone Mingyan." Yes, I have been working hard all the time. The wedding of the two of them can’t be careless. By the way, my father will be the officiant tomorrow, right? I’m going tomorrow too, but I’ll go directly to Huanxi’s mansion to ask for a cup of wedding wine, hahaha !"
Wei Gang said with a smile: "My lord, you come to congratulate me personally. I'm afraid Dr. Huan won't make his lips crooked. That's really radiant! It's enough for him to boast."
"What's there to brag about? Master Huan is an old friend to me!" Li Qing smiled. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of the time when he was a small captain, in order to ask Huan Xi to save the soldiers under his command. The moment when I ran into Tao Ranju with my life, it was during that time that I knew Huanxi and Mingyan, right? Nearly ten years later, things have changed, Huanxi's white beard is all white, and Mingyan Yan has also changed from a red girl back then to the nearly 30-year-old vice president of the Overwatch Council, and himself, from a small and unknown school captain back then to a famous person in the world, it is said that he stomped his feet , it is not an exaggeration to shake this continent!
"Time flies so fast!" Li Qing sighed. "Mingyan is getting married, and our Li family will pay a generous dowry. Is my father ready?"
"Naturally!" Wei Gang said, "Master Li has already prepared it."
"Well, show me this thing, and see if there is anything missing." Li Qing said.
"My lord, please have a look!" Wei Gang presented the form with both hands.

"Today's New Year's Eve, you can't rest, but you will be tired. The family won't have any objections to me, right?" Li Qing smiled while flipping through the bill of lading.
"My lord, that's what I'm talking about. It's Wei Gang's honor to be able to preside over this marriage!" Wei Gang said with a smile, "My lord, if you don't go back to the palace, why don't you spend the New Year in Taoyuan Xiaozhu?"

Li Qing looked up at Wei Gang, nodded, "Well, today I'm in Taoyuan Xiaozhu, and tomorrow I will go to see my parents after attending the wedding of Dr. Huan."

"Yes!" Wei Gang lowered his head, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
"I won't keep you for dinner today, go home early, the family must be waiting for your reunion, tomorrow will be another busy day." Li Qing said with a smile.

"Yes, my lord, since this is the case, I will leave!"

"Go, go!" Li Qing smiled and waved.

Wei Gang stood up and bowed to say goodbye. Before he could stand upright, footsteps could be heard outside, and a personal guard rushed over like flying, "My lord!" The personal guard saluted.
"What's the matter?" Li Qing asked, Han Yong went to Minzhou early this morning, and Li Wu hadn't rushed over yet, so this personal guard was temporarily transferred to him.
"Master Li, the old lady, Mrs. Yanran, Mrs. Jiyue, Mr. Anmin, Mr. Jishi, Miss Xinyi, are coming to Taoyuan Xiaozhu!"

"What did you say?" Li Qing hurriedly stood up, "What's going on?"
The guard also shook his head blankly.

"Go, have a look!" Li Qing strode out.There was a gleam of joy on Wei Gang's face, and he hurriedly followed behind Li Qing and walked out.
When Li Qing walked to the door of Taoyuan Xiaozhu, a large group of people meandering from a distance had already approached Taoyuan Xiaozhu.When Bao'er heard the news, she also rushed over, holding Li Qing's hand nervously, "My lord!" She timidly whispered.
"It's okay, I'm here, what are you afraid of!"

The convoy stopped, the door of the first carriage opened, Mr. Li got off first, and behind him, Mrs. Wen was full of faces.

He also walked down with a smile.
