Splendid Pastoral: The Strong and Hot Wife

Chapter 60

At this time, the smile on Qiu Qiming's face deepened when he heard this, and he looked at the grandson who never called himself 'grandpa', and said: "At that time, I told him to let him go to the battlefield with us, he was very happy I agreed, and found me a lot of boys of the same age in the same village.

But when it was time to leave, he came to me...and said that his parents would not let him go because he was the only male in the family.

I thought about it, too. Poor people need labor in their families, so it’s fine if they can’t go.

When I went back to the camp, someone found them, sent him wheat seeds and rice seeds, and said to him: It’s okay if you don’t go, we are fighting on the battlefield, we must not go hungry!

This is the only thing I can do for you, take it back and eat it, but remember to keep the seeds.When it rains, you plant it.

I'm leaving, you take care!
I haven't contacted him for so many years, and I don't know how old he is?I really want to go back to that time, we can talk without worry. "

Qiu Yongzheng asked excitedly after hearing this: "Grandpa wants to see him too?"

Qiu Qiming turned around and looked outside the door and replied, "Yes! But, it's freezing and snowy over there, how can I get to them?"

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the candles in the room swayed a few times.Qiu Yongzheng looked at his grandfather's tall back, thinking about how to help them fulfill their wish?

Qiu Qiming thought for a while, then turned around and said to the grandson standing behind him, "Forget it! Let's stop here tonight! You have to enter the palace tomorrow, go and rest earlier!"

Qiu Yongzheng listened to his grandfather urging him to go to sleep, quickly bowed his head and said, "Yes, grandson will leave!"

After speaking, he turned and walked out of his grandfather's study.

After Qiu Qiming waited for his grandson to leave, he wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to the palace.

The current emperor of Great Zhou relied heavily on the Qiu family. In order to show his sincerity, the emperor married Qiu Yongzheng's sister, Qiu Ruolan, the only granddaughter of the Qiu family, and made her a noble concubine before entering the palace.

However, there is a fly in the ointment, I don't know why this Concubine Qiu has been in the palace for three years, and she still has no children.

But fortunately, because of the relationship with the Qiu family, the emperor has always loved her a lot, and he doesn't seem to care about having no children at all.

This Concubine Qiu Gui is also a person of blue heart and wisdom.Never compete with concubines.

Qiu Qiming wrote this letter to his granddaughter.Tell her about the recent situation of Qiu Jiajun that Qiu Yongzheng said.

Great Zhou Palace, Orchid Palace!Concubine Qiu Gui was washing and taking off her make-up when the maid Cui Yao rushed in from the outer hall.

Said to the maids standing on both sides: "You all go down! The empress is going to bed!"

The maids performed the palace ceremony and replied: "Yes!" They turned around and walked out.

At this time, Qiu Ruolan, who was sitting in front of the dressing table carved with dragons and carved phoenixes, turned to look at Cui Yao and asked, "What's the matter?"

Cui Yao walked to her side and whispered a few words in her ear.

Qiu Ruolan frowned and said, "Bring me the letter and have a look!"

Cui Yao took out the letter in her arms and handed it to her.She took it apart in her hand and looked at it carefully.

After reading it, she immediately asked Cui Yao to put the letter in the animal-shaped stove beside her and burn it.

At this time, her crescent eyebrows were locked even tighter.After thinking about it, she asked Cui Huang to stretch her head over, and after whispering a few words in Cui Hao's ear, Cui Hao walked out.

At this time, Concubine Qiu Gui returned to her former leisurely manner, her crescent eyebrows stretched.Slowly walked to the soft side and lay down on it.

After a cup of tea, Cui Yao walked in with a fifteen or sixteen-year-old eunuch.

The little eunuch came in, and when he saw Qiu Ruolan, he bowed and saluted, "Slave Yongshun pays respects to the imperial concubine and empress!"

Qiu Ruolan looked at the little eunuch named Yongshun with a full smile and said, "Excuse me! Father-in-law Shun has worked hard! I'm really sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night!"

The little lady listened and lowered her head and replied: "Your Majesty is too serious, I dare not be hardworking, Yongshun is a slave, and always obeys the orders of the masters."

Concubine Qiu looked at Yongshun and said softly: "Eunuch Shun, may I ask which palace your Majesty will be resting in tonight?"

The little eunuch still lowered his head and replied: "Mother, the emperor has not rested tonight, and he is reviewing memorials in the imperial study!"

After hearing this, Qiu Ruolan said with a smile like a flower: "Oh! Your Majesty has worked so hard! Cui Yao, go and bring me the bird's nest porridge I made for the Emperor. I am going to see the Emperor!"

Cui Hao hurried out, and after a while Cui Hao came in with a tray in his hand, and in the tray were a blue and white porcelain gold-rimmed bowl and a spoon.

Qiu Ruolan stood up and said to the two, "Let's go! Let's go see the emperor!"

After she finished speaking, she walked ahead first, and went directly to the imperial study room.

Qiu Ruolan came to the door of the imperial study room. Just when the eunuch guarding the door was about to open her mouth, she made a silent movement, put her finger on her mouth and let out a "shh", and the eunuch guarding the door smiled and gave up.

Qiu Ruolan walked in, and Cui Yao who was behind hurriedly freed up a hand, took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into the hand of the eunuch guarding the gate.

Also followed in.Followed by the emperor's personal eunuch Yongshun.

The eunuch guarding the gate thought: This Concubine Qiu Gui knows how to be a man, and she is considerate to the emperor. She knows that the emperor is not asleep at such a late hour, so she comes to deliver food.Who would only pet her!

And, be nice to these minions too!
Qiu Ruolan walked into the imperial study room and saw Da Zhou's fifth emperor, Chen Hezhe.He is wearing a bright yellow tunic, lighting up the lamp to review the memorial!
He was sitting in front of the koan, watching intently, when he heard footsteps behind him.

Without raising his head, he said, "Isn't I very upset that you said you're not going anywhere tonight? Why did you come in again?"

Qiu Ruolan had already walked to his side, and hurriedly squatted down to salute and said weakly: "The concubine sees the emperor!"

When Chen Hezhe heard her voice, he hurriedly put the memorial in his hand aside, stood up and helped her.

Qiu Ruolan leaned her soft body against Chen Hezhe's arms, and Chen Hezhe leaned his face against her ear, biting her ear gently with his teeth.

Qiu Ruolan was bitten by him, and moaned.

Seeing the situation, the servants behind hurriedly retreated, Cui Yao put the tray on the koan and also turned and retreated.

Chen Hezhe pushed Qiu Ruolan horizontally, and carried her to the inner room of Longta.He walked up to the dragon pagoda in a few steps, gently placed Qiu Ruolan on the soft dragon pagoda, stretched out his hand to help her take off her dress, leaned over and lit fire everywhere on Qiu Ruolan's delicate skin with that amorous mouth.It provoked Qiu Ruolan to keep humming in his mouth.

Qiu Ruolan stretched out her frail and boneless little hands to undress him.Chen Hezhe also took advantage of the opportunity to lie on the dragon's foot...

After a burst of ups and downs, Chen Hezhe got up and said to the door: "Come here, go and bring a bowl of ginseng soup to the imperial concubine."

Only the eunuch outside the door responded: "Yes?"

Chen Hezhe hugged Qiu Ruolan again, kissed her cheek and said, "My concubine is not in good health, she needs to take care of herself! Wait until I'm done, so I can give birth to a lively and lovely little prince!"

After hearing this, Qiu Ruolan closed her eyes and responded softly: "Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty Long En!"

After a while, I heard the eunuch's shrill voice shouting outside the door: "Your Majesty, the concubine's ginseng soup is here!"

After hearing this, Chen Hezhe said to the door: "Send it in!" After speaking, he put on his coat and sat up.

The eunuch walked to Long Ta, he took the bowl and said, "Go down!" The eunuch bowed and retreated.

Chen Hezhe held Qiu Ruolan in his arms, put the bowl to her mouth and said, "Come! Concubine, hurry up! Drink it while it's hot!"

Qiu Ruolan obediently finished a bowl of soup in small sips, Chen Hezhe gently put her on the bed, and fell asleep herself.

After drinking the soup, Qiu Ruolan fell into a deep sleep.

Qiu Yongzheng came out of his grandfather's study, went back to his room, and lay on the bed after taking a bath, unable to fall asleep.

I kept thinking about what I had said to Xu Xiaomi during the day.He also thought about what method he would use to transport the food to Dingzhou when he asked the emperor tomorrow.

It is more than 1000 miles from the capital to Dingzhou. Not to mention the long distance, the road is full of ice and snow. Not to mention transporting grain and grass, even walking is difficult.

Alas... If only I could have a flying horse like Miss Xu!

Ai!Otherwise, go and borrow the horse from her... After thinking about it, he fell asleep in a daze.

The morning of the Great Zhou Palace is the busiest of the day.At the second quarter of Yin time, Yongshun went to invite the emperor to court as before.

He walked to the door of the imperial study and shouted: "At the second quarter of the Yin hour, please change your clothes and go to court."

Chen Hezhe was sleeping soundly with Qiu Ruolan in his arms, when he heard Yongshun's voice outside, he opened his eyes to see the beautiful woman sleeping beside him.

Stretching out his hand to caress the smooth skin, he kissed Qiu Ruolan's face with his mouth.

Qiu Ruolan hugged his body with her backhand and touched it, she wanted to continue sleeping.However, I suddenly remembered the letter my grandfather wrote last night, and hurriedly sat up and put on my dress.

Chen Hezhe looked at it and asked, "What's the matter? It's still early! Concubine, let's sleep a little longer!"

As he said that, he also sat up, put on his middle coat and stepped down.Go to the edge of the screen to get the dragon robe.

Qiu Ruolan put on her middle coat, hurriedly jumped to the bed and got the dragon robe first, and gave it to Chen Hezhe to put it on her shoulders.

Chen Hezhe felt that Qiu Ruolan was very strange today, watching her put all the clothes on him.

He took her hand and asked: "Aifei, what's the matter today?"

As soon as he asked, Qiu Ruolan knelt down in front of him with a plop, and said in a low voice, "The emperor forgives the sin, but the concubine has something to do and didn't announce it."

Chen Hezhe looked at the charming girl in front of him, and Danfeng squinted his eyes and asked: "What is there that hasn't been played, and my concubine wants to give such a big gift?"

Qiu Ruolan who was kneeling on the ground replied weakly: "Your Majesty, my concubine's younger brother returned to Beijing from Dingzhou yesterday!
Dingzhou is now covered by heavy snow, and the soldiers froze to death when they stood guard at night and got up early.It started seven days ago, and as of yesterday, more than [-] soldiers had died.

My father's hair has been greying, and the four groups of soldiers he sent back to Beijing to report are gone forever.

The food and grass in the army have also been cut off for more than three days.The concubine begged the emperor for mercy, please don't punish my brother for his ignorance. "

After hearing this, Chen Hezhe looked helplessly at the beautiful and weak woman in front of her who was already in tears.

He was actually shocked, how could things have developed so seriously?It's just that he is introverted and deep, which is not easy to see.

Chen Hezhe stretched out his hand to help Qiu Ruolan and said softly: "Snow disaster? I only received news of heavy snow disaster in Jinquan County. I don't know that Dingzhou has also become like this."
