Don't you want me to come back?" Han Qing asked in surprise, hearing the reproach in his grandfather's tone.
Immediately, he remembered again the letter Han Chonggui had written to himself when he had just been acquitted. In it, he was indeed solemnly advised to put national affairs first and not to think about returning to Bianliang.
At that time, he only thought that it was the encouragement from the elders to the younger ones. He was also happy that he did not need to rush back to Bianliang and avoided his identity.
Now that I think about it, my grandfather was already warning him in a very subtle way at that time.
"Why, you didn't read my letter carefully?!" Han Chonggui asked with a hint of disappointment in his voice, frowning.
If he didn't treat the other party as a family member, Han Qing would definitely find any excuse and just get over it. But at this moment, he knew that he should not let down his grandfather's hard work.
So, with a smile, Han Qing lowered his voice and explained, "I've seen it and thought about it. But Kou Xiang said, since I don't have Dayu's ability, I shouldn't imitate Dayu and stay out of the house three times. I myself don't
It’s been a long time since I listened to your teachings. I miss you very much.”
"Did Kou Laoxi'er ask you to come back?" Han Baogui frowned even more when he heard this, "This guy is really unjust!"
After scolding, he nodded with a smile, "You have indeed grown up, and you still remember to come back to see your grandfather. I thought that after you left last time, you didn't want to come back again!"
"How could it be possible? My grandson was being petty at that time. He actually began to regret it before he left for Chenqiaoyi!" Han Qing's emotional intelligence was much higher than that of his previous self, and he immediately looked embarrassed.
He admitted with a blushing face. "I just didn't have the face to look back immediately. I went all the way to Jinniu Village, but fell ill again. Then, just as I recovered, I got involved in the case of the Red Lotus Sect!"
He told both Li Jihe and Kou Zhun about this experience. Li Jihe and Han Chonggui were old brothers who had been on the battlefield together, and Kou Zhun also respected Han Chonggui.
After these two people returned to Bianliang one step ahead, they would inevitably talk about Han Qing's affairs in front of Han Chonggui. With the introduction of the two as a foreshadowing, it would be much easier for Han Qing to explain his experiences outside.
Believe more.
Immediately, Han Chonggui stopped complaining that he didn't listen to his advice and insisted on returning to Bianliang. Instead, he quickly pulled his wrist, checked his pulse, and asked nervously, "Now, has the root of the disease been removed? Are you like this?
Nie Zhan, since you regret it, why do you have to continue to take office? You come back and hide in your own room, and my grandfather has the heart to find you out again and have you escorted on the road!"
"Actually, I wanted to go out and hide for a while to avoid the embarrassment of meeting my classmates from Taixue." Han Qing smiled and shook his head gently, "Look, isn't this a blessing in disguise for me? As for getting sick, I would have taken care of it long ago. Otherwise, I
He will not escape the pursuit of the Red Lotus Sect."
"Well!" Han Chonggui didn't know any medical skills at all, and he couldn't even feel the pulse. However, he still pressed his fingers on Han Qing's wrist repeatedly until he was sure that the pulse was not abnormal, then he nodded thoughtfully, "That's right, you should have gone out to practice a long time ago.
Come on. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have brought two granddaughter-in-laws with both civil and military skills to me! Grandpa doesn’t care about your concubine, just like it. As for the Dou family’s parents, have you ever sent a matchmaker to give a betrothal gift?
What do they mean?"
"Before I came back, I sent someone to recruit him. His parents had already nodded, so he brought him back and asked his grandfather to allow us to get married." Han Chonggui didn't ask where his first aid skills and black powder came from, but he was concerned about himself and Dou.
Rong's marriage. Han Qing became more relaxed and quickly explained to the old man with a smile.
"Don't make grandpa happy! You clearly can't bear to leave her in your parents' home! As the saying goes, it's up to you to grow up! Are you willing to marry him just because I say no?" Han Baogui immediately saw through his little thoughts,
He curled his lips and scolded with a smile.
"Anyway, I just want to make you happy!" Han Qing's thoughts were exposed, but she didn't feel embarrassed at all, and continued to flatter Han Guigui with a smile.
"Happy, happy, of course my grandfather is happy. Besides my grandson, who else can earn his grandfather a title from the Founding Duke?" Han Chonggui smiled broadly and nodded repeatedly. "But -"
Suddenly, his words suddenly changed, and he looked into Han Qing's eyes and asked: "What about the daughter of Zhou Junhou's family? You are not qualified to marry an equal wife now, right? Even though Zhou Junhou's daughter has never lived with you,
Even if I die, I am not willing to be a concubine."
"Didn't we break off the engagement? I reported it to you in my letter." Han Qing was confused by the question and asked with frowning eyebrows.
He remembered clearly that it was Zhou Min who took the initiative to bring up the matter of breaking off the engagement. Both parties high-fived each other as an oath. It stands to reason that with Zhou Min's character and ambition, he would never go back on his word. Why does his grandfather seem to be a close relative?
If there is no retreat, will the two sides continue to quarrel?
"Nonsense, how can you two little girls make the decision on such a big thing as breaking off the engagement?" Han Chonggui immediately glared at him and scolded him angrily, "I don't know what that girl was thinking, to go all the way to find her.
You break off the engagement but don't let his father make the decision for her!"
"I'm not sure. When I met her at that time, I felt guilty for patronizing her. I didn't dare to ask in detail!" Han Qing smiled and said smoothly.
"Are you feeling guilty? If you were feeling guilty, there would be no other women around you! And there are two of them!" Han Chonggui didn't believe that his grandson was so conscientious. He curled his lips and continued, "She returned to Bianliang from outside.
After that, he was immediately imprisoned at home by his father. A while ago, I heard that you were promoted to Jingdong East Road for execution. Zhou Junhou even came here to congratulate his grandfather and apologize for his daughter. I hope that our two families will continue our engagement!
"
"Then you promised him!" Han Qing was so nervous that his hair stood on end as he blurted out his questioning words.
He admires Zhou Min very much and knows that her talent, character, ability and courage are first-class. However, even if he travels back to the 21st century, he doesn't like to marry a leader. What's more, marrying Zhou Min,
He must let Dou Rong and Xu Ziling down.
"Don't worry, grandpa is not that confused!" Seeing Han Qing's face change with nervousness, Han Chonggui was overjoyed and shook his head and assured him, "Although Lord Zhou never mentioned to me about breaking off the engagement, her daughter's master,
Is there anything he can do? The old man only told him that the strong melon is not sweet, and asked him to wait for you to return to Bianliang first. As a result, before you returned to Bianliang, the daughter of the Zhou family had already given birth to a child.
Her parents left a letter and secretly left home. No one knows where she went, and there is no news yet!"
"Hoo——" Han Qing heard this and immediately exhaled a long breath.
He was not worried about Zhou Min's safety at all. Although they were both time travellers, the other person lived later than him in his previous life. His scientific knowledge and various skills were also several times greater than his.
Back then, I was able to travel across mountains and rivers to Chang'an to find him to break off the engagement, but I was unscathed. Now that I have run away from home, I won't easily fall into the wrong hands.
However, when he thought of the other party's lofty ideals, while he admired him, he felt a little bit ashamed in his heart.
Zhou Min is a woman who doesn't let men down, but herself, in comparison, is too easy to be satisfied. If one day Zhou Min really organizes a group of like-minded people to realize her ideals through violent means. Han Qing doesn't know, as a
Should officials of the Song Dynasty stop her or add fuel to the flames?
"Okay, now you can rest assured! I don't want to marry you at all!" Seeing all his behavior, Han Chonggui mistakenly thought that he wanted to hug him, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head, "Change it.
Anyone who is smart will not marry. It is impossible for the daughter of a prince to be a concubine. And even if she becomes a wife, if she is not liked by her husband, she will still be bullied by the concubine. It is better to hide away and stay far away in advance.
Don't jump into the fire pit."
"I'm not going to let anyone bully her. It's just..." Han Qin stopped talking and wanted to explain a few words, but found that she could make her feelings clear in one or two sentences.
"I understand, even grandpa understands, who hasn't been young yet?" Han Chonggui rolled his eyelids with disdain on his face. "That girl from the Dou family, who risked her life to be with you, must be someone who can share weal and woe with you for the rest of her life.
.It is only right that you choose her. Since her parents have nodded, of course her grandfather will not be happy for you to get married as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, grandpa." Han Qing stood up and saluted as if she had been granted amnesty.
"You were promoted to the post of Jingdong East Road in the summer. It's already winter and you haven't gone to take office yet. It's too shameful!" Han Guogui waved his hand and added with a smile, "Although the officials will not blame you, you yourself
, it’s better not to leave any complaints to Yan Guan. So, this time, grandpa won’t help you organize the wedding. When you settle down on Jingdong East Road, grandpa and your uncle will go there to help organize the wedding.”
"Yeah! It's all up to my grandfather." Han Qing only asked that his marriage to Dou Rong would not cause any complications. He didn't care when the wedding would be held. After thinking about it, he nodded with a smile.
"Then don't stay in Bianliang. Go see your mentor Zheng Shanchang today. Go see Kou Zhun and Li Jihe tomorrow, and then get together with your old friends tomorrow night. The day after tomorrow, at the latest
The day after tomorrow, get up and go take up your post!" Han Chonggui put away his smile and added seriously, "The scenery in Bianliang is what you have seen since childhood, there is nothing new. You should go to Jingdong East Road to take up your post as early as possible, so as not to be criticized again.
Grab him and throw dirty water all over him!"
If Han Qing was still the same Han Qing, he would definitely be depressed because his grandfather repeatedly drove him away as soon as he entered the house. But now, he was keenly aware that something was wrong, and immediately frowned slightly and asked in a very low voice
, "Is something big going to happen in Bianliang City recently? Grandpa, please don't treat me like a child again, otherwise, no matter where I go, I will turn around and come back!"
"You are the only smart one!" Unexpectedly, Han Qing reacted so quickly. Han Guogui was stunned and scolded unhappily, "If you have nothing to do, don't think about it. Bianliang City has Kou Zhun as a civil servant and Li Jihe as a military commander.
What’s the big deal?!”
Han Qing neither nodded to express his belief nor refuted. He just smiled and looked at his grandfather, his eyes full of expectation.
"If you have nothing to do, please go down. Jiajun, salute your two aunts. You are not at home. Thanks to them taking care of the servants, I take care of you comfortably." Han Guogui refused to respond to Han Qing's expectations.
, consider him right and left.
Han Qing was ordered to immediately step forward and salute his two uncles and aunts. The latter, who had watched him grow up, immediately returned the gift politely, and gave him a few words of advice as elders, smiling.
Get up and say goodbye.
When there were only two grandsons left in the main hall, the old general Han Chonggui shook his head helplessly and sighed: "You can rest assured that nothing major will happen in Bianliang recently. The reason why my grandfather urged you to take office
, I am worried that you are young and impulsive, and have risen rapidly in the past year, and it is inevitable that someone will want to win over you. In this case, whether you agree or not, you will offend others. It is better to go to Qingzhou as soon as possible and stay out of it!"
"In the past few days, I just thanked guests behind closed doors!" Knowing that the old general was not completely telling the truth, Han Qing thought about it and said with a smile. "Besides, if someone pulls me, I will push the Kou Prime Minister out. They can't do it in person.
Go ask Kou Zhun if I am his direct descendant?"
"This is a good idea. I'm afraid that Kou Laoxi will end up with you after he finds out!" Han Guoguo heard this and immediately smiled and clapped his hands.
"He is the prime minister. It stands to reason that he can run horses in his belly!" Han Qing thought for a while and added with a smile, "What's more, if he wants to deal with me, he will at least look at who my grandfather is, and the consequences will be lighter."
"That's true. Kou Laoxi'er will give me a little bit of my face." Han Guogui felt comfortable after being patted. He stroked his beard and nodded gently. However, he soon shook his head with a smile, "But still,
Why don't you leave Bianliang as soon as possible!"
"Why don't we go together? You have already retired to work at home anyway. Come with me to Qingzhou to stay for a few days. If I don't understand anything, I can ask for advice day and night!" Han Qing thought for a while and settled for the next best thing.
"Shall I go to Qingzhou with you?" Han Guobao heard this and his heart skipped a beat. Then he smiled and shook his head again, "Forget it, the weather will get cold soon. My old arms and legs can't bear to brave the north wind.
Hard."
"Then you can wait until the spring comes before you go there! It's just in time to arrange the wedding for your grandson. Otherwise, Rongwa will be running around with me all day long, which will easily attract people to gossip. The sooner we get married, the sooner you can see your great-grandson.
!" After hearing this, Han Qing immediately took a step back and asked with a smile.
"Okay! I will go to Qingzhou after spring next year." When Han Guoguo heard that it involved his grandson's life-long event, he immediately stopped refusing. He stroked his beard and nodded vigorously.
As he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have been deceived. In the end, Han Qing was deceived into leaving Bianliang. Immediately, he quickly picked up the crutch and said, "Little bastard, you have grown up. Even your grandfather coaxed...
…”
This time, Han Qing did not wait for the beating, but ran away with a smile. "You have been a general, and you have no regrets. If I don't wait until you are old in the spring next year, I won't be able to get married. If I
If you can't get married, you won't see your great-grandchildren. Our team is already very thin..."
While escaping, he used words to hammer down the bricks. Soon, the whole yard was filled with long-lost laughter.
