Li Huang slowly raised his head and whispered: "For my grandson, when he was young, what he needed was a full meal, a piece of clothing, and a quilt to keep out the cold in winter, not these empty supports! "
Prince Yu was startled and said in a low voice: "Which person who has achieved great things in this world has not experienced hardships? Shunfa was raised among the parents, Fu Yue was raised among the building blocks, and Jiao Ge was raised among the fish and salt. , Guan Yiwu was promoted to the scholars, Sun Shuao was promoted to the sea, and Baili Xi was promoted to the city. Therefore, when heaven is about to assign a great responsibility to a person, he must first prepare his mind and spirit, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, deplete his body, and disturb his behavior. What you do, so you move your heart and forbearance, has benefited what you can't do. People always make mistakes, and then they can change; they are trapped in the heart, and they are balanced by worries, and then they act; they are marked by color, they are produced by sounds, and then they are metaphors. Let's take a closer look at the legalist Fu Shi , if you go out, you will have enemies abroad and the country will perish. Then you will know that you are born in sorrow and die in peace and happiness. This article
Perhaps because he was worried about the drought in Chu Han, Chu Yiqing felt stuffy after coming back. He was feeling uncomfortable now. Seeing Xu Zhi coming, he smiled and said: "Actually, it's nothing serious, I just feel stuffy. Maybe it’s because I’m worried about going up the river!”
Xu Zhi didn't listen to her and said directly: "Aunt Chu, let me take your pulse first. I am a doctor and I have the final say!"
"Okay, okay, you have the final say!" Chu Yiqing said with a smile, and stretched out his hand to Xu Zhi. Looking at Xu Zhi's serious pulse check, he suddenly remembered the first time he saw Xu Zhi and couldn't help laughing. He said: "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you have really grown up. The last time I visited the house, I heard from the Li family's sister-in-law that your marriage to Tieshuan is scheduled to be in the twelfth lunar month?"
Xu Zhi nodded while feeling his pulse: "Actually, Tieshuan and I are not in a hurry, but my aunt is. Besides, Tieshuan will be in the general election next year, so it's better to get married first!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Why, are you still worried that he will run away after choosing a high official?"
Xu Zhi couldn't help but blushed with embarrassment and said: "One look at Aunt Chu's body and she seems to be fine. She even makes fun of her sexual skills!"
Chu Yiqing retracted his arm and said: "I told you it's okay, I just feel a little stuffy. It's Yingrun who made such a fuss!"
Yingrun immediately stepped forward and asked, "Miss Zhi'er, are you really okay?"
Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Aunt Chu is in good health and breathing well, so there is nothing serious. However, Aunt Chu, I heard Yingqian said that you have been worried about your concubine and going to the river these days. Now that you are healthy, You should know that you have to relax in everything and never work too hard!"
Chu Yiqing raised his eyes and looked at Yingrun and Yingqian standing by the door and smiled: "Don't listen to their bluff. I know my body, but about going to the river... Is Tieshuan here?"
Xu Zhi quickly said: "Here he is, he's right outside!"
Chu Yiqing nodded and said, "Let him in, I just have something to ask him!"
Before Xu Zhi could get up, Yingrun had already called Tie Shuan to come in.
Tie Shuan saluted at the door and then walked in. Chu Yiqing looked up at him and saw that he was wearing a green shirt, elegant and decent, so he smiled and said: "In that yamen, people are trained, Tie Shuan looked at him Much more stable!”
Tie Shuan smiled and said: "Thank you Aunt Chu for the compliment. I really learned a lot in that yamen!"
Chu Yiqing nodded, asked Yingrun to move a chair for him, and then asked: "You have been following Ma Yunfei these days, what do you think of Ma Yunfei?"
Tie Shuan asked: "Aunt Chu, is he referring to his character or his way of being an official?"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "If you have a good character, you will certainly be a good official. You can tell me about it!"
Tie Shuan nodded and said: "Ma Yunfei is from a business background. He is flexible and smart. He is good at business and gets along well with his superiors and subordinates. As the master of this town, despite his young age, he is quite capable and can be considered an honest official.
, he is a good official!"
After Chu Yiqing heard this, he asked: "You mean, Ma Yunfei is very good at digging into camps?" [
Tie Shuan nodded and said: "From the beginning, he approached me just for Aunt Chu's shop. Because of this, Mai Xiang always had some grudges against him. But if Ma Yunfei can put his business on serving the people, it would be a good thing.
official!"
"No wonder he read the book of Fang Yun in front of the prince today. It's not difficult to understand!" Chu Yiqing nodded.
"Before he came here, Ma Yunfei called me over and told me what happened today. His tone and look seemed to have caught Fang Yun's sore spot. Regardless of whether he was doing this for public or private reasons, I
I think he has done something good for the people!" Tie Shuan said quickly.
Chu Yiqing nodded and said: "It's understandable that he has the ambition to make progress. As long as he uses this ambition on the right path, he will become a great help to you in the future!"
Tie Shuan was stunned and said with a smile: "Aunt Chu, I am Master Ma's assistant, right? You are confused!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "I'm not old yet, how could I get confused? You should study hard and prepare for next year's general election. If there is no accident, I will ask someone to help and let you replace Fang Yun's seat. Now Chu Yiqing
80% of Han's land and people belong to me, and the court also needs a capable person, Aunt Chu trusts you!"
Li Tieshuan was stunned. Fang Yun was a fifth-rank official. He was just a small official. Even if he won the first prize in the palace examination, he could only start from the seventh-rank official. How could he...
"Just study hard and don't feel any pressure!" Chu Yiqing smiled when he saw him coming in with a nervous expression.
"Aunt Chu, this..." Xu Zhi was also frightened. Although Li Tieshuan could at least be the leader of a county in this election, the leader of this city...
"If you know what you are doing, just go crazy on the Internet! Tieshuan, during this period you should also assist Ma Yunfei and have a good relationship with him. When you take up the position of the city master in the future, you can rely on him!" Chu Yiqing said lowly!
said the voice.
Li Tieshuan quickly cupped his fists and said, "Aunt Chu's great kindness to Tie Shuan will never be forgotten by Tie Shuan. Don't worry, Aunt Chu. Tie Shuan understands what Aunt Chu means and will definitely live up to Aunt Chu's high hopes for Tie Shuan!"
Chu Yiqing waved his hand and said: "From now on, I will leave this Chu Han to you!"
Li Tieshuan raised his chest, and a sense of mission suddenly arose in his heart. He nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Chu, Tieshuan will definitely be a good official!"
Chu Yiqing nodded, and kept the two of them talking for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, he left the two of them to eat, but they refused. Chu Yiqing no longer forced them to stay, and asked Yingrun to send the two of them out.
.
The sky gradually darkened, and Chu Yiqing suddenly wanted to eat stewed eggs, so Yingrun quickly asked the kitchen to prepare them.
"Yiqing, why haven't Huang'er and Abao come back yet?" Concubine Qing came out of the room and asked.
"I said I went to practice swordsmanship. Maybe the two of them got excited and practiced for a while. It's not dark yet, so don't worry!" Chu Yiqing said with a smile.
"I heard from my servants that Huang'er had a quarrel with the two imperial uncles. I feel uneasy and very worried!" Concubine Qing said worriedly.
"Mom, don't worry, Huang is sensible!" Chu Yiqing said with a smile.
"I know Huang'er broke up with the two imperial uncles because of me. Think about it, I am also a drag on you while I'm alive!" Concubine Qing sighed.
"Mom, how can you say that? You finally came back, so stop thinking about it and leave these troublesome things to Huang!" Chu Yiqing quickly comforted her.
Concubine Qing nodded, and now she heard the laughter of father and son coming from outside the door.
"Daddy is cheating and didn't try his best. Daddy is letting A Bao do it!" A Bao shouted, ran in from the house, rushed into Chu Yiqing's arms and shouted, "Mother, Daddy lost to me on purpose.
!”
Before Chu Yiqing could say anything, Concubine Qing immediately shouted: "Oh, Abao, you can't be so reckless anymore. Your mother is not as good as before. What if she hits the baby in her belly..."
Only then did Abao realize what he was doing. He was so frightened that he stuck out his tongue and said, "Mom, I'm sorry, I forgot!"
Li Huang also rushed in and asked, "Are you injured?"
Chu Yiqing held A Bao in his arms and said with a smile: "Look at how nervous you are. I'm not made of mud. How could I be injured so easily!"
Li Huang then breathed a sigh of relief, looked back and reminded Abao: "Abao, you must be more careful in the future, you know?"
Abao pouted his lips, his eyes were full of grievances, and he stood there with a downcast face.
Chu Yiqing was afraid that he had a grudge in his heart, so he immediately took A Bao's little hand and said, "A Bao is fine, mother is fine!"
When Concubine Qing and Li Huang saw this, they felt that they were a little too nervous just now. Just when they were about to say something, they saw A Bao raised his eyes and narrowed his round eyes and smiled: "Mom, I'm fine, I know grandma
My father and I are concerned about my mother and little brother, I will be fine!"
Chu Yiqing's heart softened. She had been very sleepy since she was pregnant. In addition, with the two old princes in the house, she rarely showed up, so she ignored A Bao, leaving A Bao to deal with the two cunning old men alone.
.
"A Bao, my mother asked the kitchen to make stewed eggs tonight. You can eat more later!" Chu Yiqing took A Bao's hand and sat down aside.
Abao nodded.
Concubine Qing and Li Huang also sat down, and soon the food was served. There were three meat dishes and three vegetable dishes, which went well together.
Chu Yiqing picked up his chopsticks and said with a smile: "Mom, let's have dinner and ask the ball king!"
Concubine Qing nodded and said: "Eat, eat, eat quickly!"
Chu Yiqing picked up the spoon and personally scooped the stewed eggs to Ah Bao. Before he put down the small bowl, he heard Shi Da's voice coming over.
"Two old gentlemen, at this moment..." Shi Dazheng was leading people to close the courtyard door. Unexpectedly, Prince Lu and Prince Yu rushed in. He quickly blocked the way and asked Dasen to go and report the news.
Just as Concubine Qing was about to turn around, Prince Nayu strode into the hall. As soon as he saw Concubine Qing, he shouted: "Concubine Qing, where are you going?"
Qing Fei was startled and her body suddenly stopped.
"Sure enough, it's you!" Prince Yu narrowed his eyes and was about to stride forward, but was stopped by Li Huang.
"Grandpa Four Emperors, what are you doing?" Li Huang stood in front of Prince Yu and said coldly: "The name you just called Huang'er's mother and concubine?"
Prince Yu slowly narrowed his little eyes and said: "Li Huang, you don't have to pretend. Back then, Concubine Qing was burned to death in Tianlan Courtyard. I felt something was fishy and secretly had people investigate for a long time. Today, Qing Fei
Although the concubine is disguised and put on makeup, I recognize that Chu Yiqing’s concubine is Concubine Qing, so you can’t even think of denying her!”
Prince Lu came in from outside the hall. At this time, he looked at Concubine Qing carefully and said immediately: "Yes, it's her. If you don't look carefully, she will really hide her from you!"
Li Huang's eyes darkened and he said coldly: "Two imperial grandfathers, you have recognized the wrong person. This is Chu Yiqing's aunt, whose surname is Pan. You have made a mistake!"
"We have lived with your mother and concubine in the palace for several years, and your mother and concubine is your father's favorite concubine. How could we admit our mistake? Huang'er, you are so brave, you even dare to lie to your father!
"Prince Yu said coldly.
Li Huang clenched his hands and was about to attack when he heard Concubine Qing's voice coming coldly: "Yes, I am Concubine Qing, but I believe you will not tell the emperor. Do you want to ruin this?"
Huang'er?"
Prince Yu and Prince Lu were startled. It seemed that Concubine Qing had told her what was on their minds. They snorted coldly and said: "Actually, we didn't want to pursue your matter. Anyway, you have been imprisoned in Tianlan Institute.
For twenty years, there is not much difference between living and dead, but now Huang'er is rebellious and does not take us elders seriously, which really makes us sad, we..."
Before the two of them finished speaking, Abao suddenly stepped forward with a smile, pulled the arms of Prince Yu and Prince Lu, and said: "Two old princes, my mother asked someone to make stew today.
The eggs taste so good. Grandpas, please don’t argue with daddy. If daddy doesn’t listen to the grandpas, Bao will! Come on, come on, sit down and eat together!"
Abao dragged the two of them and asked them to sit down.
Li Huang's eyes darkened, and when he was about to say something, he saw Abao wink at him desperately, so Li Huang had to hold back.
Concubine Qing's face turned white and red for a while, and her eyes when she looked at Li Huang and Chu Yiqing were filled with guilt. It was she who had caused the two children to suffer!
"Two old grandpas, please calm down. A Bao will pick up the food for you personally!" A Bao took the serving chopsticks, stretched out his little arms to pick up the chicken wings for the two of them, and said with a smile, "Two old grandpas.
Just eat more, we are still a family after all!"
Prince Yu said with a smile: "It's better for Abao to go ahead. Huang'er, once it's clear, we won't be polite!" After Prince Yu finished speaking, he picked up the dish and put it in his mouth, squinting his eyes with satisfaction and smiling.
He said: "The food that this family eats together is delicious, it is better than the two old bones of us alone, you look at me and I look at the excitement of you!"
Li Huang narrowed his eyes coldly and clenched his fingers secretly.
