Spring and Autumn I Am King

The army went on an expedition and traveled thousands of miles, ranging from a year to a few months. After the time entered April, Zhao Wuxi tried to spend time with his family while preparing for the war.

On this day, he just finished the morning meeting and entered the greenhouse of Changle Palace to prepare for food, when he was entangled by an ancient spirit.

"Brother, I heard that you are going to go out again?"

Zhao Jia, who had just turned ten years old, was wearing a boy's attire, combed all the horns, and had a jade beast and auspicious beast hanging on her chest. She was sitting beside Zhao Wuxi's knee in a yellow dress with embroidered bird and cloud patterns. is a boy.

A series of questions came out of the curious girl's mouth: "Where is Wu State? Why did the elder brother want to conquer them?"

"Thousands of miles away in the south, there is a saying about the kingdom of Wu." Zhao Wuxi couldn't resist her, so he could only explain briefly: "They have broken tattoos and don't know etiquette. Even more vainly trying to loot the country of Lu, for my brother to drive them away."

"Lu Guo, is that where Aman (Zhao Cao) is?" Although Zhao Jia and Zhao Cao are aunts and nephews, they are the same age. When they were young, the two little boys were always in front of Zhao Yang's knees, and they had a very good relationship. It has been separated for several years, but Zhao Jia has not forgotten this little nephew. During the festivals, Lu Guo will send her gifts, which makes her very happy.

"good."

"Brother will definitely drive away the wicked!"

Zhao Jia clenched her fists, and then imitated the movements of the palace maid. She poured a glass of wine and handed it to Zhao Wuxi, congratulating him on his victory in the expedition, which made Zhao Hou burst into laughter.

Seeing that his brother was in a good mood today, Zhao Jia's eyes twinkled, and his big eyes looked at him earnestly, and said, "Zongbo said that the children of the Zhao family should not be appointed monarchs without meritorious deeds. When we grow up, we want to be the pillars of Zhao State , to share the worries and relieve labor for my brother..."

"You are clever." Zhao Wuxi stretched out his hand and flicked his sister's forehead, and scolded with a smile: "Did you wear men's clothes again to attend class with Heng, Zhou and the others?"

"It's not that Uncle Zong's eyes are dim and he can't recognize people. In class, he praised me the most." Zhao Jia stuck out his tongue and admitted it.

Zhao Wuxi attached great importance to the education of the children of the Zhao family. He made Zhao, who is knowledgeable and highly respected from the same clan, as his uncle, and managed more and more descendants of the Zhao family in the future. At the same time, he also gave them a good education from childhood.

However, these educations are only for the sons and grandsons, and have nothing to do with the sons and daughters. According to common sense, Zhao Jia should dress as a girl, with her hair combed, beside her mother, or Le Lingzi and Ji Ying, learn female red needlework, and deal with etiquette. , learn how to be a fair lady.

But Zhao Jia is different from Zhao Wuxi's daughters. She is not like a daughter, but like a boy. She is full of energy when urinating and runs around like a pony. Perhaps because her playmates are all boys, she also likes to dress herself up as a boy. Ruojinjuan changed her girl's clothes for her, but she was unhappy and made trouble.

Time flies, and ten-year-old Zhao Jia has become the "eldest daughter-in-law" of Zhao. Yulin guards learned bow and arrow there. Since then, she has been shooting everywhere with a small bow and arrows with arrows removed every day. All the animals in Ji Ying Luyuan have suffered, or been plucked or shot, and even the animals in the garden heard The little girl's laughter made the wolves rush and panic all day long.

Recently, after getting a batch of pony ponies sent from the Nanzheng area in the south of Qin, she became even more obsessed with horseback riding. Changle Palace Garden can no longer satisfy Zhao Jia's galloping heart...

So at this moment when I heard that there was a war in the south, she actually took the initiative to ask Ying: "Brother, is it okay to bring Jia Jia on this expedition? I can ride horses, I can also shoot arrows, and fights are stronger than Zhou and Thorn, so I can be your right. Be a knight!"

"Hahahaha." This childish remark made Zhao Wuxi laugh out loud, pointing at her and saying, "Men are in charge of the outside world, women are in charge of the inside, you can just play around in the palace, the blood on the battlefield is extremely bloody. What's more, its filth and chaos are unimaginable for ordinary people, how could it be a place you can go?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhao Jia changed color suddenly, raised her eyebrows, and said unconvincingly: "Who said that my daughter's family can't go to the battlefield? Zong Bo mentioned the past of Zhao's ancestors in the Yin and Shang Dynasties. Eight hundred years ago, the surname Ying was born. The son of my wife will follow the woman's chariot, listening to her orders to charge!"

"It's all the time." Zhao Wuxi knew that it was useless to reason with a child of this age, so he shook his head helplessly and thought: "It really deserves to be Wuzi's daughter, she is stubborn, very similar to her father's temper..."

He simply said perfunctorily: "You are still young, and you are not taller than a horse, so how can you go out with me? After you have reached the age of the horse, if you are really skilled, I will take you with me when I return from the battle to hunt. Searching in the spring, hunting in the summer, Miaoqiu, and hunting in the winter, hunting is training troops, so you can also feel the atmosphere of the battlefield.”

Zhao Jia was not fooled, and pouted: "My brother said a few years ago that he would take me to Daibei to see the grassland, but he has repeatedly postponed it..."

It's not good for the little ghost to be too smart. Zhao Wuxi is also helpless. In the past few years, he has hardly been stable for a month. It is not natural disasters or wars, it is not an expedition or a prince, and his footprints are all over the Central Plains. How can he take it with him? The little sister goes hunting.

However, he really hoped that after defeating Wu Guo, Zhao Guo would have a stable development time, and he would be able to spend half a day with his wife, children and sister, and not be so exhausted.

Thinking of this, he raised a hand and said with a smile, "I promise you, this time I will do it."

Zhao Jia, who was a little disappointed at first, immediately lit up, stretched out her little thumb and hooked Zhao Wuxi's hand, and said, "A word is settled!"

"You have no jokes!"

The little hand held the big hand, and the eldest brother was like a father, and he was happy. The palace people saw it, and their hearts were also very warm. Although this little girl was naughty, she had a good heart and never bullied them. In front of the girl, Zhao Hou would completely put down her air, like an ordinary father and brother. Generally, let the solemn palace atmosphere relax.

But they soon regained their spirits, because with a shout, a line of honor guards walked from outside the palace to the inside. Under the yellow crank umbrella was a spacious chariot, the curtain was fluttering, and the people sitting inside wore luan The crown, the long skirt fell to the ground, revealing a grace and majesty, everyone knew that this was Mrs. Jun's arrival...

...

Zhao Wuxi's Mrs. Jun is Le Lingzi. She didn't wear a formal dress today, she just wore a normal dress, a green palace dress, as gentle and pleasing to the eyes as the spring that just passed away. She approached and faced the adoration of the palace maids, her eyes were gentle, her smile was like a spring rain, silent and refreshing.

But when she approached, Zhao Jia's eyes showed a trace of fear, and she shrank behind Zhao Wuxi.

The little girl and Mrs. Xu Ying are very cordial. They are more like mother and daughter than sisters. She runs to the Changqiu Palace when she has something to do, scaring the animals in the deer garden and trampling all kinds of grass and trees to death. Feeling distressed, she just gently reprimanded her and wiped the dirt and thorn **** from her clothes.

But Zhao Jia is afraid of Mrs. Jun, which is also known to everyone in Changle Palace.

Perhaps Le Lingzi was in charge of Zhao's harem, and the restrictions in the palace were relatively strict. In addition, once Zhao Jia caught a cold and contracted a disease, after being personally diagnosed and treated by Le Lingzi, she couldn't help but drink a few mouthfuls of bitter medicine, and even put a needle in her butt. Zhao Jia, who has always been stubborn and strong, was most afraid of these two things. Whoa whoa crying.

Although her illness will soon be cured, she will never enter Changxin Palace from now on, and she will hide away when she sees Le Lingzi's honor guard from a distance.

Now that Le Lingzi came to the Greenhouse Hall to have dinner with Zhao Hou, Zhao Jia was intimidated. She lost her lively energy and bowed timidly to Lingzi, then said goodbye to Zhao Wuxi and hurriedly left. .

"The lady in this palace can cure her." Zhao Wuxi didn't feel anything, and smiled at Zhao Jia's figure from walking to trotting.

Le Lingzi frowned slightly at the girl in the men's attire, but didn't say anything.

Zhao Wuxi's lunch was not extravagant. It didn't have the extravagant but ordinary "Zhou Bazhen" to support the table, nor did he have a hundred complicated dishes for him to choose from. It was just some pasta as the main meal, and his favorite dishes. Southern rice.

As for the dishes to accompany the meal, there are tender meat grilled on a bronze stove, copper beans with meat sauce, copper bowls with fruit, and spoons, daggers, and other items, which are only enough to fill half a case. .

When Zhao Hou was eating, the irrelevant people retired. Although Le Lingzi was your wife, he always insisted on performing his wife's duty and served her husband personally. She carefully cut the fragrant meat into pieces and mixed the fresh and salty meat sauce. Sent to Zhao Wuxi, raised the case and raised eyebrows. Then she smiled and watched him chew slowly, but she only took a few bites - she was still doing filial piety to her dead brother.

After the meal was over, a maid of mine brought a copper bowl to let Zhao Hou wash his hands.

It was only then that Le Lingzi said, "My husband is distressed that Jia has lost her father since she was a child, so she should be pampered, but she is a daughter after all. Being a son-in-law represents not only herself, but also the decency of Zhao Guo’s office. She should also teach her what she should teach. She can’t always wear men’s clothes, dance swords and bows, and hang out with boys. If it spreads out, it will cause rumors. gossip..."

Zhao Wu Xie pondered, he knew about these things, but Wu Xie's daughters were still young and couldn't play with her, so she could only be with the sons.

Among them, Zhao Cao, who was closest to her, went to the State of Lu a long time ago. Although Le Lingzi's son Zhao Heng was only six years old, he inherited his mother's wisdom and was accompanied by a group of Song Guole's children; Zhao Wuxi's nephew Although Zhao Zhou likes to follow Zhao Jia very much, but his mother Han Ji lives in a recluse like Xianglin's sister-in-law, and Zhao Zhou is not allowed to run around. As a result, Zhao Jia's playmates are only Qin's proton and son Thorn.

Since he came to Zhao State as a hostage a few years ago, Zhao Jia has taken him as a new valet. No matter what Zhao Jia does recently, he has basically dragged him with him. He has also become the most frequent outsider in and out of Changle Palace. Although he is a seven-year-old child who has nothing to guard against, Wu Xie is still good at it.

"Although Young Master Thorn is regarded as a child of the minor sect, the ban on the palace is still necessary. The number of times entering and leaving Changle Palace should be reduced."

He smiled at Le Lingzi and said, "As for other matters, the man is in charge of the outside and the woman is in charge of the house. Since the widow has handed over the Changle Palace to the wife, how to establish the rules of the court, how to educate her, so that she can be like a son-in-law. , Madam figured it out~www.readwn.com~ Le Lingzi was relieved, but he listened without any sympathy and said: "To call Madam to have dinner with me today, there is actually something I want to tell you. "

"I don't know what's going on with your husband?" Le Lingzi knew that it was not easy for Zhao Wuxi to spend so long in the greenhouse during his busy schedule.

"Gu is about to go on an expedition to Sishang, and all the affairs of the middle school will be handed over to the prime minister, Dong Zi. He is a three-generation veteran of the Zhao family. He is loyal, shrewd and strong. With him sitting in Yecheng, Gu is very relieved."

He stretched out another finger: "But there is only one thing, although the widow is in the central army, it is very safe to have Yulin guards to protect it, but there are some things that need to be planned. If the widow has any shortcomings, I don't want Zhao Guowu Lord, fall apart..."

"My husband, Hongfu Qitian, will surely return safely!"

Le Lingzi's heart trembled when he heard it, and he quickly stretched out his hand to stop her husband's ominous words, but Zhao Wuxi took her hand and took her into his arms, smiling: "The position of the prince is vacant, and the hearts of the people of the country will be uneasy. I can't be stable. So Gu plans to book Liheng as the Prince of Zhao before going on the expedition..."
