In March, there is a long pavilion on the outskirts of Beijing.
Xu Yin leaned on the railing and smiled as she watched Princess Changning teasing Tianming to call her aunt.
Tianming is just five months old and can only giggle, drool and bab, but Changning is happy with it.
After playing for a while, the wet nurse took her away to feed her. Xu Yin said, "I can't tell, you really like children."
Princess Changning told the truth: "I don't like other people's children. Isn't this yours?"
Xu Yin laughed: "If you say that, I would think you like me."
Princess Changning waved her hands quickly: "No, if these words reach your ears, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the capital."
She came to Beijing this time to receive a title and get married. A Lu had already formally submitted a proposal of marriage. Emperor Mingde made a plan and simply accepted Princess Changning as his adopted daughter. This not only showed the world the benevolence of the new emperor, but also
Let Alu realize the grace of the court.
Xu Yin also asked her privately what she thought about the marriage. If it was just forced by circumstances and she didn't want to get married in her heart, she could change the situation and cancel the marriage.
Princess Changning said something heartfelt to her: "I can't say that I'm in love with him right now, but I thought about it carefully before agreeing to the marriage. For one thing, King Liang, a young and talented man, came to Nan
If I were asked to choose among the people I want to marry, I would really choose him. Secondly, I have seen the world outside, and I really don’t want to go back to the back house. In the whole world, he is probably the only one who can give me the rights I want.
Bit."
At this point, she lowered her head and smiled: "Besides, he is good-looking and I like him very much."
That said, I kind of like it, and Xu Yin feels relieved.
Given Changning's situation, meeting someone like A Lu is really a blessing.
While the two were talking, a row of carriages and horses stopped not far away. Xu Ze accompanied his newlywed wife, Chu Jiu accompanied Xu Jia, and the four of them came together.
Not long after the war ended last year, Xu Ze got married to the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Xining. This Miss Mei was cheerful and capable, and the whole family liked her very much.
Xu Jia also got married soon after. After the marriage, she did not return to Hexing and settled in the capital with Chu Jiu.
This is naturally very worry-free for Xu Jia. Prince Yu's palace is a mess, and she still doesn't know how to be tortured when she returns to Hexing. It's different if she stays in the capital. She has the support of her mother-in-law's palace, and has sisters who are princes and concubines.
, anyone with eyes knows that she cannot be messed with.
Xu Yin listened and knew that Chu Jiu was using this matter to seize his father's power, but she was happy to see it succeed, since King Yu was not a good person anyway.
"Third sister." Xu Jia came over to say hello, "Are we not late?"
Xu Yin stood up: "Everyone hasn't arrived yet, so of course it's not too late."
Xu Ze then realized who was missing: "Where are the third brother-in-law and Prince Liang?"
"We are discussing matters in the palace. We will be here shortly."
Xu Ze said "Oh". He knew that his abilities were ordinary and he couldn't get involved in such government affairs, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Chu Jiu, on the other hand, avoided people and asked her after the greetings: "After Prince Liang gets married, will he live in the capital for a while?"
Keeping the rulers of vassal states behind was very particular in the articles. The most common ones were taking hostages, or letting them give birth and then taking protons. These were all means of governance.
Xu Yin shook his head: "Da Liang is a country of its own, so there is no need for this. If they go back as soon as possible, they can clean up and build the school as soon as possible."
Hearing that she specifically mentioned Jianxue, Chu Jiu thought about it for a moment and understood. This was because she wanted Daliang to learn Chinese characters and read Chinese books, so that it could be culturally integrated into the Central Plains as soon as possible.
And Alu knows the benefits of reading, so not only will he not stop it, he will also try his best to promote it.
This is an outright conspiracy.
Chu Jiu raised his thumb: "High."
The sound of horse hooves sounded in the direction of the city gate, and several horses galloped towards them, led by Yan Ling and A Lu.
"Are we not late?" Yan Ling threw the reins to the guard and came in to ask.
Xu Yin smiled and said, "No, I won't arrive until later."
When Tianming saw his father over there, he began to babble. Yan Ling took his son and asked with a smile: "Do you miss daddy? Come and give him a hug."
Tianming giggled and grabbed his hair.
Before the child was born, Xu Yin felt that Yan Ling would not be a strict father, and reality confirmed her suspicion. As long as he was free, he would personally hold his son, tease him to talk, feed him water, and even change diapers, enjoying it endlessly.
The queen said: "He should be allowed to do more. Emotions are born out of love, and so are parents and children."
Xu Yinshen thinks so. Men don't have to conceive or feed, so it's hard for them to understand the fusion of flesh and blood. Only by letting him participate in every step of the upbringing will the relationship become stronger.
Tianming pulled his hair on one side and drooled on his face on the other. Yan Ling had to discuss with his son: "Don't pull your hair, pull your clothes, okay? Be good..."
Here the father and son are fighting, and over there the messenger comes: "It's here, it's here!"
Xu Yin looked up and saw a huge motorcade slowly approaching on the avenue, with flags fluttering and embroidered with the Li family's logo.
She couldn't help but stand up and walked outside the pavilion.
After much anticipation, the motorcade finally stopped in front of them.
When she saw the familiar face, joy came to her heart and she ran over quickly: "Sister!"
Xu Si got out of the car and saw her at first sight, and was ecstatic: "Ah Yin!"
The two sisters hugged each other and cried.
It's been three years, it's been three years since the sisters were separated!
Xu Jia and others stepped forward and saluted: "Big sister."
Xu Si nodded repeatedly, wiping away tears and smiling at the same time. She looked at Xu Yin first: "I've grown up, and I'm a little taller."
Then he looked at Xu Jia and the others: "It's so nice to see how well you all are doing."
Compared with when they parted, Xu Si was a little more rounded, delicate and bright, full of energy, and her whole person was as lustrous as a pearl.
Xu Yin couldn't be happier. This means that her sister is living a good life and has married a good man.
Over there, Li Wen led a child over, and everyone greeted him.
"Eldest brother-in-law."
"His Royal Highness King Wu."
Li Wen, who had been crowned King of Wu, nodded with a smile and bowed to Yan Ling.
Yan Ling supported him and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law is here to welcome my brother-in-law today. We only talk about family etiquette. Is this my little nephew?"
Li Wen said yes and asked the child to come over: "This is Aqi, please meet my uncle soon."
Li Qi is already two years old. He is handsome, handsome, serious, and salutes with a sweet voice: "I've met my uncle, I've met my aunt..."
Everyone laughed.
Yan Ling hugged her son over. Tianming looked at her little brother, shouted vaguely, and stretched out her little hand to Li Qi.
Xu Yin said to her sister: "He likes Ah Qi very much."
Xu Si was very happy: "We will all be together in the future, and the brothers can grow up together."
Just like their sisters.
"Okay, okay, let's go back first." Xu Ze said, "There will be a long time in the future, so we can gather together as much as we want."
This is very true, and Yan Ling echoed: "What I'm saying is that we still have a lot of time, so we are not in a hurry."
We still have a lot of time.
Xu Yin got into the car, and Yan Ling sat next to him with his child on his lap. She looked out of the car window and saw Xu Si's family on the carriage behind, followed by Xu Jia and his wife. Xu Ze and Mei helped the palace
The stewards coordinated the transportation of luggage, but Chang Ning and A Lu simply abandoned their cars and rode horses, chatting and laughing as they walked side by side.
The sun is shining on the earth, and the spring is just right.
This book is officially finished. The older I get, the more I like happy endings. I hope everyone is happy and happy. I will write a postscript and summary in two days.
