When everyone is walking together, it is inconvenient to talk about oneself.
Oh, please, just take a look at Zhao Xiyan's appearance at this time, and you don't have to ask anything.
Zhao Xiyan was originally a charming beauty, but now she was married to a cruel young man, and her eyes were full of happiness and sweetness. She was like a flower blooming slowly.
Zhao Yuanren glanced at his niece and asked his newly minted niece-in-law, "Has the Crown Prince ever led the Crown Princess into the palace to pay her respects?"
Xu Jing immediately smiled and said: "When the Queen Mother calls, they will enter the palace to pay their respects."
I begged Queen Su not to say anything and not to enter the palace for the time being.
No! At this time, Zhao Xiyan would be better off not letting Emperor Yongming see her.
Not to mention outsiders, the Zhao family couldn't look away when they saw Zhao Xiyan.
Seeing that Xu Jing understood what he meant, Zhao Yuanren stopped saying more. Instead, he smiled and said: "Ru Ming's new army has recruited 10,000 new soldiers. After receiving the invitation from the east, I asked to train the new soldiers. After the prince's wedding holiday, he asked to go
Let’s go to the military camp!”
Xu Jing nodded: "He took ten months of marriage leave. From now on, he will mostly stay in the military camp. Fortunately, the military camp is not far away and he can come back every few months."
Zhao Yuanxiu immediately took over the conversation: "The prince has given the prince the important task of training the new army. The prince should focus on training the troops."
A man should put his errands first, instead of being attached to a warm and fragrant soft jade for a whole month.
Of course, if the words were spoken by the elders of the Zhao family, they would not have any special meaning.
Xu Jing grinned and said, "I beg you for the errand, and I beg you more for my sister Yue Ya'er."
Zhao Jiahe and others of the same generation were all numb and had goosebumps all over their bodies.
On the other side, Mrs. Sun was also smiling and telling Zhao Xiyan: "Yueya'er, when I marry into the palace, I will become the wife of the Xu family. The prince is in charge of urgent matters, so I want to be in charge of the outer house and relieve the prince of his worries."
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled softly: "Auntie, is that true? Third sister has told him a long time ago that when he passes the door, she will leave all the affairs of the outer house to him."
Mrs. Sun nodded with satisfaction in her heart, but said: "I am so young and have never been in charge of a foreign house. If there is anything I don't understand, I must ask the county prince for advice."
Can I ask for advice? But, as a mistress, you have to firmly hold on to your right to control the outside house.
The eldest aunt worked so hard, Zhao Xiyan asked for her favor, smiled and nodded in agreement.
Zhao Queyu finally waited for the opportunity to interrupt, grabbing Zhao Xiyan's arm and shaking it: "Sixth cousin, when he has free time in the future, he will go to the palace to find me."
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled: "He wants me to come every day."
Zhao Queyu was coaxed so happily.
Zhao Suxin was begging to shut up when she suddenly felt nauseated. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and left. After a long time, she came back with a blushing face.
Zhao Xiyan asked softly and pitifully: "Why is morning sickness so severe?"
Zhao Suxin smiled helplessly: "I was fine before, but starting last month, I suddenly started vomiting violently."
Pregnancy has always been a very difficult thing for a woman. That’s just the beginning!
At noon, the Zhao Mansion held several family banquets. Xu Jing, the new uncle who came to visit the house for the first time, drank a lot of wine. After the banquet, Zhao Yuanxiu coughed and called Zhao Xiyan over: "Your Majesty is a little drunk, I will accompany you."
Your Majesty, please go to the courtyard and take a rest."
As he said that, he winked at Zhao Xiyan.
Zhao Xiyan understood and agreed with a smile.
Xu Jing didn't know what was going on, so he held Zhao Xiyan's legs and staggered all the way into the yard. When he entered the yard, he felt something good.
The yard was deserted, and all the maids and servants were gone.
Zhao Xiyan smiled at him and pushed open the bedroom door.
A slender man appeared in front of him, his handsome and elegant face looked so familiar.
Xu Jing: "..."
The man laughed: "What are you doing standing still? I haven't seen his father-in-law very often."
Xu Jing's nose felt sour and his eyes were hot. He quickly knelt in front of him and kowtowed three times: "My son-in-law has met my father-in-law."
Zhao Yuanming accepted it calmly, stretched out his legs to help Xu Jing up and said, "Wonderful son-in-law, please get up."
After Xu Jing got up, he hugged Zhao Yuanming and called him father-in-law and then wife, his eyes turned red.
Zhao Yuanming laughed, stretched out his leg and patted his proud disciple and new uncle on the shoulder: "You are no longer an adult getting married, you are just like a child."
Xu Jing insisted on hugging his father-in-law and wife tightly: "He misses me so much after not seeing him for so long. If that doesn't work, he just begs to be hugged for a while."
Zhao Xiyan was so amused.
Zhao Yuanming had nothing to do with Xu Jing, so he had to let Xu Jing hold him.
After a while, Xu Jing relaxed his legs, took two steps back, turned to Zhao Xiyan with some dissatisfaction and said, "My father-in-law came to the capital, and I didn't even tell him."
Zhao Xiyan blinked and smiled leisurely: "He didn't know that dad came to the capital until the night before he got married. He simply didn't say anything. How about it? Was he very surprised just now?"
Really surprised and happy.
Xu Jing easily forgave Yue Yaer's sister's concealment and said with a cheerful smile: "When my father-in-law comes to the capital, why not go to the palace to stay for a few months before leaving. Let his son-in-law fulfill his filial piety."
Zhao Yuanming felt warm in his heart and responded with a smile: "He has accepted my filial piety. There is no need to go to the palace. He made a strong oath back then and never set foot in the capital. He came to the capital quietly, and he has already broken his oath."
, how can I show up at will again?"
The real reason is that he is afraid of attracting the attention of Emperor Yongming!
Xu Jing muttered to himself but did not say anything. He followed his father-in-law's words and said, "Then my father-in-law will stay at Zhao's house for a few more months. He and sister Yue Ya'er will come here every month. Just like meeting tomorrow, it won't attract attention."
Zhao Yuanming was quite moved. After thinking about it, he whispered: "When Mingyue sees us, Mingyue will set off back to Beihai County."
Then he sighed: "There is something we don't know! Zhou Sui and Wang Tong led the remnants of Qinglong Village and secretly defected to a bandit. We have been in the capital for more than a year, but Zhou Sui and Wang Tong have not shown up. Until
Before he came to the capital, he heard that Zhou Sui had killed the original bandit leader and made himself the leader. Moreover, he changed the bandit village to Qinglong Village. Wang Tongfu was the second leader of the bandit village. He heard that there were many bandits in the village.
There are many, nearly ten thousand people. Wang Tong is good at training soldiers, and those bandits are quite powerful in battle."
Xu Jing frowned.
Zhao Xiyan was silent for a moment and said in a low voice: "Zhou Sui is very ambitious, and Wang Tong is not a good person. Those two are linked together. There are so many bandits in the east, and sooner or later there will be chaos."
A chill flashed in Xu Jing's eyes: "He told his cousin about this and asked the court to send troops to suppress the bandits."
Zhao Xiyan said: "The imperial court has been fighting one after another, which has consumed a lot of money. Now that Qinglong Village has not raised a flag to rebel, I am afraid that the emperor may not be willing to use troops again."
"Heng Qiu gives it a try." Xu Jing said solemnly: "He will write another letter to brothers Li Ji and Li Xiao, asking them to prepare to send troops to suppress the bandits."
