Song Qinghuan was not polite to Princess Nanyao at all and just kicked her out.
Xiao resigned from a visit to the palace and came back with a very bad look on his face.
He originally thought that by leaving the children in Ruizhou, he and Song Qinghuan would not have to worry about anything. He could just stay in Kyoto for a few more days, wait until the person behind the scenes was found, and Dali's country would be stabilized.
I went back to Ruizhou to live my own little life.
But Nanyao couldn't let the children go to Beijing to take risks after being disturbed like this, so he went to the palace and talked to Emperor Cheng Xing about returning to Ruizhou.
As long as Emperor Chengxing allowed the couple to return to Ruizhou, the children would naturally not have to travel long distances from Ruizhou back to Kyoto.
Xiao Ci was staying well in Ruizhou, but he was suddenly recalled to Kyoto for the purpose of crusading against Ye State. Now that Ye State's matter was over, it was only natural for him to mention returning to his fiefdom.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Chengxing actually refused. He said, "I have already sent people to Ruizhou to bring some of my nephews and nieces back to Kyoto to reunite with you. You and your siblings can live in Kyoto without any problems."
This means that Xiao Ci and Song Qinghuan are not allowed to return to Ruizhou.
It was Emperor Chengxing who wanted to reduce the vassalage at first, but now it was Emperor Chengxing who wanted to keep Xiao Ci in Beijing.
The Kyoto was so unstable, and he was regarded as a thorn in the flesh by the people in the dark. Not only could he not return to Ruizhou this time, but he had also dragged down several children. For a moment, he was really angry and hated.
When Xiao Ci returned to the house, Song Qinghuan knew that something was wrong as soon as she saw his expression. She frowned and said, "This Princess Nanyao is really causing trouble."
Neither of them wants to see Princess Nanyao, but if they don't want to see her anymore, Xiao Jingchuan, Xiao Jingtong, and Xiao Jingrou, brother and sister, are also coming to Beijing from Ruizhou, and they have to make arrangements along the way.
Xiao Ci said to Song Qinghuan with a livid face: "Don't let her enter the house next time, otherwise my husband will beat her if he can't help it."
After finishing the explanation, I went to the study room to arrange for manpower to take care of the children.
It's not that far from Ruizhou to Kyoto. It's winter now and the road is not easy to walk. Xiao Jingchuan and Xiao Jingtong are not young either. Even those who have traveled long distances along the way can be said to be fine, but Xiao Jingrou's body is afraid of it.
Can't live.
Xiao Jingrou was already young, and she had been rescued from a flood. Her body had been weaker than other children's since she was a child. If she really hurried on the road, she would suffer from various discomforts.
Xiao Ci sent a group of people to Ruizhou to pick him up. Song Qinghuan thought about it, but still felt a little worried, so he simply sent Texue out as well.
There are not many days left before the Chinese New Year. If we go back and forth, if we don't encounter bad weather, we will arrive in Beijing just in time for the Chinese New Year. If we encounter rain or snow on the way, we will inevitably have to spend some time on the road.
The people from Prince Rui's Mansion set off to Ruizhou at high speed the next day, and Song Qinghuan was not idle either. The winter in Kyoto is much colder than that in Ruizhou. The children's winter clothes in Ruizhou may not be warm enough in Kyoto.
I have to quickly get the embroiderer in the sewing room to come out. It's the New Year again, so I have to make more clothes to be able to go out.
In addition to making clothes and making jewelry, the children's yard also had to be sorted out. It had not been inhabited for several years. What needed to be repaired had to be repaired and what needed to be replaced had to be replaced.
For the sake of several children, Song Qinghuan changed his usual laziness and had endless things to do all the time. On the contrary, Xiao Ci really acted like an idler.
Emperor Chengxing left him in Kyoto, but didn't give him any errands. Xiao Jingchuan was also in charge of the temporary affairs in Ruizhou, so he had nothing to do.
Song Qinghuan was busy with things at hand, so he didn't get angry with him anymore. Every day when he opened his eyes, he saw his wife busy, and he always felt that she had nothing to do.
In mid-November, the first snow fell in Kyoto. Because Song Qinghuan was afraid of the cold, she finally put aside the things at hand.
It had been snowing heavily for two days, but it was quite thick. Emperor Chengxing somehow thought of going hunting in the snowy mountains on a whim.
However, Emperor Chengxing always liked to have fun, and even going hunting in the snowy mountains was nothing unusual. Perhaps he felt that his life was too monotonous when surrounded by beautiful people.
On November 26th, the weather cleared after a rare few days of heavy snowfall. Song Qinghuan was wearing a riding suit, holding her handbags, and shivering from the cold while sitting in the carriage.
Xiao Ci followed the group that went up to the snow mountain and came back from the horseback. He was sweating all over his body. When he got into the carriage and saw Song Qinghuan looking like a shrunken turtle, he couldn't help laughing: "I told you to move around more."
Walk around, it's quite cold today, let's see what you look like."
Song Qinghuan glared at him: "I'm used to living in Ruizhou, but Ruizhou doesn't have to be so cold."
Xiao Ci quickly took out the hand warmer in her pocket, replaced the charcoal fire inside, and said: "I see you are so cold, why don't you go back to the house, I'm afraid it will be even colder when you go up the mountain.
You will suffer even more then."
"I think you just don't want to take me there." Song Qinghuan glared at him angrily, and his temper got worse, and the words coming out of his mouth were extremely sour: "Princess Nanyao promised to hunt a deer.
, you are probably afraid that I will follow you and disturb your interest."
A few days ago, the winter solstice was Song Qinghuan's birthday, so Xiao Ci took his people to the mountains to hunt a deer and roasted the deer meat at night to celebrate Song Qinghuan's birthday.
Song Qinghuan has always been afraid of the cold, and living in Ruizhou for so many years in the past few years has made him even more afraid. This time Emperor Chengxing went hunting on a whim. According to Song Qinghuan's temperament, the dog's life was of course at stake, so he would not do it.
I will join in and suffer.
Unexpectedly, when sending Xiao Ci out, he accidentally ran into Princess Nanyao again.
Princess Nanyao was very generous. She didn't remember at all that she was kicked out of Prince Rui's Mansion earlier. She wore a ginger-yellow riding outfit. She didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so she said to Xiao Ci: "Listen.
You said you hunted a deer a few days ago as a birthday gift for Princess Rui?"
Xiao Ci was also annoyed that she was meddling in other people's business and letting several children go to Beijing, so he remained silent and looked calm after hearing this.
Princess Nanyao was not afraid of embarrassment, she curved her lips and said with a smile: "I am a little envious, but I also hunted a deer to give to myself."
She raised the bow and arrow on her horse and said to Xiao, "Do you want to compete with your childhood?"
Song Qinghuan was still standing there alive, but was regarded as useless by Nan Yao, who sneered: "There is no one who can hunt the head deer for the princess, so the princess can only fend for herself."
After hearing these stinging words, Princess Nanyao turned her attention to Song Qinghuan and said unceremoniously: "I can support myself because I have the ability to be self-sufficient and don't have to wait for charity from others.
