good wife

Chapter 151
Jingyi suddenly became interested, "What good news?"

Yuan Xi smiled mysteriously, "The emperor will order Gu Yan to guard the northern border tomorrow, and he can bring his family with him."

"Big cousin?" Jingyi was quite surprised and said, "Why would the emperor think of transferring big cousin to northern Xinjiang?"

Yuan Xi got up and went to the table, and poured two cups of tea by himself.She drank a cup by herself, walked to the bed and handed it to Jingyi.

Jingyi took the teacup and drank it down in one gulp, as if she still hadn't quenched her thirst, and handed it to Yuan Xi, "One more cup." The tone of the speech, the movement of passing the teacup was unaffected, and she didn't notice anything wrong .

Yuan Xi looked at Jing Yi's movements and expressions, but there was a smile on his face.It seems that after not seeing each other for seven years, Xiao Yiyi's trust in him has increased rather than decreased.As soon as this idea popped up, Yuan Xi felt a little joy in his heart.

Jingyi got up when he was pouring tea, and stood in front of the window, "You haven't said why the emperor did this?"

Yuan Xi handed over the tea, and said softly: "The emperor wants to use Gu Wen's family again. If I guessed correctly, the emperor intends to keep Gu Wen's family away from the temple disputes and escort the next new emperor."

Jingyi was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head and said, "It's just to let the big cousin guard the northern border, and besides, there is a cousin-in-law there, so why do you think you want to be an important uncle?"

Yuan Xi counted low and said: "The emperor ordered us to come back this time, so he didn't intend to let us go back again."

"You mean that the cousin-in-law will also stay in the capital? What about northern Xinjiang? There is only the eldest cousin. Although the eldest brother is there, the two of them are young after all, and they are not like you and your cousin-in-law, who have status. It's there. How can they guard those soldiers?"

"That's why I said this is good news! Think about it, the northern border has basically settled down, and the emperor ordered Gu Yan to guard it at this time, don't you understand?"

Jingyi thought for a moment, "You mean, the emperor intends to transfer uncle away from the capital to avoid the current court situation?"

Yuan Xi nodded, "The emperor sent Gu Yan over first. With his foundation, it is not impossible to completely suppress those people. However, the emperor will not let him go smoothly like this. After a while, naturally They will find another reason to transfer Gu Wenye away from the capital. At that time, what else can others say?"

Jingyi shook her head, "Not necessarily. Who can guess what the emperor is thinking? Longyan is happy and angry, who can predict it? What if the emperor doesn't see how powerful uncle is, so he uses Yang Shuo again?"

"No. In the past few years, although the emperor has basically taken back most of the military power from Yang Shuo, he is still worried about him. Don't forget, there is a King Jin behind him! These years, Although I'm not in the capital, you have kept my dark pavilion in order and sent me news from time to time. There are indications that the emperor is already a little bored with the Yang family."

Yuan Xi turned around, and said again: "Let's not talk about the dispute between King Jin and King Ming. Just say that the emperor is sitting in that seat, so he is naturally suspicious. Yang Shuo made great achievements in battle when he was young, but he was too arrogant and domineering." , and Concubine De are of the same temperament, and they don't know how to restrain themselves. Now that Concubine De is in the harem, she is eyeing the empress position, and she has the potential to compete with the Empress. The emperor is naturally worried about him."

Jingyi shook her head: "The emperor's heart is unpredictable! Who knows what the emperor thinks? Since he knows that Concubine De is like this, why is he still arrogant? That's all, this is not something we can control. But if the uncle's family can leave the capital, That's good news."

"That's right. Right now, the battle between the two factions of King Jin and King Ming is gradually becoming clear. The forces of both parties are not weak, and the emperor has not yet intended to appoint a crown prince. No one knows who will win in the end. We can avoid this Fighting is the best thing."

Jingyi nodded, "Yuanxi, you just came back?"

"I arrived in the afternoon. I wanted to see you first, but I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for you to come here, so I went to the dark pavilion first to deal with some business before coming here."

Jingyi was a little displeased and said: "I just came back, why didn't I know to rest for a while? What's the rush? It's not too late to deal with it tomorrow. Also, if you don't come tonight, I will definitely know that you are back tomorrow. Why do you have to run again for the news about your cousin? Are you not tired?"

After listening to Jingyi's reproachful words, Yuan Xi smiled and said, "I'm not tired. I just want to see you."

After Jingyi heard this, she looked up at him again. She hadn't seen him for seven years, but his figure was already much taller, almost 1.8 meters tall by visual inspection.The skin is no longer as fair as before, but has a slight tan. It looks healthier and stronger.A pair of dark eyes, like the night sky outside, are bright and deep, making it impossible to see the edge.A pair of thick black sword eyebrows faintly reveal a sense of sharpness and strength!Even better than seven years ago!If Yuan Xi was a beautiful boy seven years ago, then the Yuan Xi standing in front of her now is a handsome, elegant and beautiful man!
Although he has been a general for seven years and has fought many battles, he is full of elegance!This made Jingyi very puzzled!I couldn't figure it out in my heart, so I asked casually.

As soon as she asked, Jingyi regretted it.Asking this, I don't know if Yuanxi will be angry!

After listening to her question, Yuanxi smiled faintly, waved his sleeve lightly and said, "Yiyi, during the seven years I was in Northern Xinjiang, the first two years I was busy suppressing the rebellion and completely eradicating the rebel army, but later In the past few years, the business is not too much, and I still have to take some time to read books every day. Just like what you wrote in your letter, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles."

Yuanxi still didn't say a few words, that is, he knew that Jingyi loved to read books and practice calligraphy.I said goodbye to him, and I didn't know when I would be able to come back.Every time I think of Jingyi reclining on the couch reading a book, the thoughts flood in like a flood.Sweeping away all his thoughts, only the faint smile flickered in his mind.

Yuanxi knew that Jingyi was smart, and was afraid that if she didn't read more books, Jingyi would be disappointed in herself when she came back, so she threw herself into the arms of others.

Every time he thought of this, Yuan Xi wished he could fly back secretly with his wings inserted.Now that I have come back with great difficulty, and I have seen the person I have always missed, but I don't know how to express my full of longing and love.

Seeing him staring at her in awe, Jingyi couldn't help but blushed, lowered her head slightly and said, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest. You have to go to the hall tomorrow to accept the Emperor's imperial edict."

Yuan Xi originally wanted to stay for a while, but when he thought of what Jing Yi said, there were indeed many things to do tomorrow.I have been sleepless for three days and three nights, if I don't sleep tonight, maybe I can really fall asleep in the court tomorrow.
