Qiyou Episode (Sixty-Three)

Qiyou Extra Story (63)

Knowing that Yunqing and Yuxi are going to move back to the palace, Qihao is overjoyed.

Qiyou said: "Brother, don't be too happy too early. When your parents move back to the palace, they will complain about you not eating and sleeping on time, always eating meat instead of vegetables, dealing with government affairs late, or not moving around much. I'm afraid you'll be annoyed too much." Anyway, he is, his ears are callused from the nagging.

Qihao smiled and said, "You take me for you!" Only Qiyou, who is in his fifties, only eats meat and doesn't like vegetables anymore.

Qiyou said cheerfully: "You are no better than me. Brother, I hope you don't complain to me."

At noon, the two brothers went to the Compassion Palace to have a look. It is cleaned daily and is spotless. But because I wanted Yunqing and Yuxi to live more comfortably, I changed all the layout here.

Two days later, Yunqing and Yuxi moved into the palace. Hong Lang naturally also lived in the Compassionate Ning Palace.

In the evening, Yu Xi said to Qi Hao: "Starting tomorrow, you will also live in the Palace of Compassion."

Qihao: ...

Qiyou lowered his head and chuckled. He said that his father and mother would not have a good life after moving back to Brother Gong, as expected.

Yuxi said: "After living with us, I will go to bed at half past Hai every day, and get up at the beginning of Mao. Get up early to fight with your father for a quarter of an hour, and use the early meal to deal with government affairs." Of course, this refers to the general situation. If there are government affairs that need to be dealt with urgently, it is another matter.

Before Qi Hao could speak, Yun Qing said, "Ah Hao, nothing is as important as your body. Ah Hao, your mother and I don't want a white-haired person to give a black-haired person."

When the words came to his lips, Qi Hao swallowed them back abruptly.

Yuxi said: "Don't worry, you won't be allowed to live in the Palace of Compassion and Ning forever. After three months, you can move back to the Palace of Qianqing." When Qihao develops the good habit of going to bed early and getting up early plus exercising, He will do it without prompting.

Qi Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Three months passed after a while.

Looking at him like this, Yuxi couldn't help laughing: "Don't think that I and your father are too much in charge, we are also thinking about your body, look how thin you have become." During this time Exhausted physically and mentally, Qihao has indeed lost a lot of weight, and even his spirit has deteriorated a lot.

Qi Hao hurriedly said: "Father, mother, I look forward to it day and night, and I hope that you can move back to live.

"Fortunately, now it's finally here.

This remark made Yunqing and Yuxi very angry when they heard it.

After lunch, Yun Qing said to Qi Hao: "Ah Hao, I want Zao Zao to teach Honglang martial arts, what do you think?" Among the children and grandchildren, Zao Zao's martial arts is the highest. Hong Lang's situation is very dangerous, and only by being good at martial arts can he save his life. Like he was able to avoid so many assassinations back then, it was because of his high martial arts.

Qi Hao shook his head and said: "Father, Mother, I'm planning to let the eldest sister recover here!" The position of the chief of the imperial guards is still vacant now, just for Zao Zao.

Yu Xi made a final decision: "Let her go to the Imperial Guard to work in the morning, and teach Honglang martial arts in the afternoon." The Imperial Guard has been rectified almost, and there is nothing wrong with it. Half a day is enough.

Qi Hao didn't object to the matter that the two elders both decided on.

Not long after, several adult princes went to the fief one after another. The courtiers are also very peaceful.

Qiyou said to Yuxi: "Mother, those old fritters could quarrel for a long time because of one thing. Now they are so quiet that you can hear a needle drop on the ground, which makes me not used to it." In fact, what Qiyou said Some exaggeration, but the court is indeed much more peaceful than before. Those who fought openly and secretly before all wanted to be the first.

Yuxi smiled and said: "This storm is only postponed temporarily." So Qiyou was happy, but it was still too early.

Qiyou paused for a moment, then changed the subject again: "Mother, I heard that you left the palace affairs to Brother Lang to take care of his mother."

Yu Xi hummed and said: "I'm impatient to see them." The "them" naturally refers to Concubine Hui, Concubine Rou and other Qihao's concubines.

Qihao couldn't laugh or cry: "Mother, I thought you were paving the way for Honglang!"

Yuxi smiled and said: "You're right to think so. Letting Shushen take charge of the palace affairs can prevent those people from poisoning Honglang in the palace to a certain extent." Zhou Shushen is in charge of the palace affairs, and those people want Lang's eating requires hands and feet, but it is not easy. Furthermore, the harem has been inseparable from the court since ancient times. In charge of palace affairs, as long as Zhou Shushen is sensitive enough, she can detect the clues.

"Jiang is still old and hot. Mother, if Hongbin could do the same at that time, maybe he would be fine." After finishing speaking, Qiyou also realized that what he said was wrong: "Mother, I don't blame you, I just saw Hong Bin feels so uncomfortable now."

Yuxi sighed slightly: "Ayou, if something had not happened to Hong Bin, your elder brother would not have let Yun Yu and the others go to the fiefdom, nor would Shushen be in charge of palace affairs." Qi Hao was too confident, thinking he could control everything. Even if Yun Sheng had an accident, it didn't shake his belief. But Hongbin's accident made him realize that he is not omnipotent. When you are old, many things will be beyond your control. If not, he would not have wanted to make the fourth prince the crown prince that day.

Qiyou was silent for a while and smiled wryly: "Mother, you still see clearly."

Yuxi comforted him and said: "You don't have to think about it too much, no matter what, Hongbin is a good person now. Think about it, so many soldiers on the battlefield were injured and returned to their hometowns, and they are also doing well. He has learned so much. As long as you are not decadent, you can be a useful person.”

easy to say, hard to do. And it is obvious that Yunqing and Yuxi are not going to intervene in this matter. But he has nothing to complain about. After all, his parents are getting older and their energy is not as good as before.

In the evening of this day, Qihao and Yuxi said: "Mother, it's time to choose a few companions for Hong Lang." Since they are the default heirs, the companions have to be cautious.

Yuxi hummed and said, "You make a list, and I will discuss it with your father." Choosing a companion to read is not a trivial matter, and now they need their family to help Honglang. When they grow up, these accompanying readers can become Hong Lang's right-hand man.

Qihao listed six people, one is Wu Renjie, the eldest son of Changsheng, Feng Kangyu, the second son of Brother Bao, Han Ruizhi, the second grandson of Brother Hua, and the other three are the Xu family, the Du family and others. A child of the Lu family.

Seeing this list, Yu Xi knew that Qi Hao finally treated Hong Lang as his heir. Because these six families all hold military power.

After reading the list, Yu Xi said: "Kang Yu's temperament is too eccentric, so he is not suitable to be Hong Lang's companion." Liu'er would occasionally bring Kang Yu's grandson into the palace, so Yu Xi also knew him a little bit.

Qihao nodded and said: "Then decide on Renjie and Ruizhi first, and then you and Dad will discuss the other two." Zaozao is the leader of the Imperial Guard Army, and Han Jiahua is the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. With the two of them escorting Hong Lang, even if he goes now, it can guarantee Hong Lang's smooth enthronement.

Yu Xi didn't answer this question, but said: "Actually, there is no rush to accompany you. Hong Lang is still young, so it won't be too late to make a decision a year later."

"Mother, Hong Lang is already six years old, and he will be seven years old." If Yu Xi hadn't stopped him, he would have wanted to teach Hong Lang how to govern the country now.

Yuxi said: "Qihao, the most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body. Don't worry about Honglang's affairs."

Qi Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Mother, I'm getting worse and worse now, so I have to make arrangements early. In this way, even if there is an emergency, there will be no trouble."

After hearing this, Yu Xi said: "Ah Hao, your complexion has improved a lot recently, don't you feel it yourself?"

Qihao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Well, recently my body is indeed lighter than before." In the first few days, he had to go to bed early and get up early, and he felt uncomfortable in various ways. But after half a month, I got used to it.

Yuxi said: "Ahao, the reason why your father and I moved into the palace was not for Honglang, but for you. Ahao, as long as you strictly follow the schedule I set, your health will get better and better." No matter how good the great-grandson is, it doesn't matter how important it is to have a son.

Hearing this, Qihao couldn't help looking at Yuxi.

In order to dispel Qihao's worries, Yu Xi said: "Ah Hao, I am in good health, and I can live for another ten years. Ah Hao, I can't make trouble in this world. So, you don't need to worry about these things at all. Now , the most important thing you should do is to relax and take care of your body."

Qi Hao believed this. Because Yu Xi not only has great prestige, but also generals with heavy troops like Zao Zao, Hua Geer and Feng Zhixi will obey her orders. With her here, it is enough to preside over the overall situation.

Yuxi said softly: "Ah Hao, nothing is as important as your body to me and your father. We would rather not have this world, and hope you are well."

Qi Hao, who did not change his face when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, could not help but get wet when he heard these words. But soon, Qihao calmed down: "Mother, don't worry, I will take care of my health."

With this promise, Yu Xi felt relieved.

Next, Qi Hao not only punched Yun Qing in the morning, but also punched for a quarter of an hour before going to bed at night. When he's not busy, he even makes gestures with Yunqing.

Yun Qing asked Yu Xi in amazement: "What did you say to Ah Hao? It made this kid's attitude change?" Previously, getting up early every day to punch was entirely to deal with him. But now, it is very positive.

Yuxi smiled and said: "I told him, if something happens to him, I can't live with you."

Yun Qing didn't believe it: "I told him this before, but it didn't help at all. Tell me, how did you convince him?"

Unable to resist Yun Qing's inquisition, Yu Xi said helplessly: "I told him that I would rather not have this world than have an accident happen to him. He was very moved after hearing this, and said he would take care of his health."

Yun Qing said: "What's so touching about this." For parents, the health of their children is naturally the most important thing.

"This child is hurt by the children." Qihao has always wanted to be a loving father, but several children fighting for the throne and killing each other hit him hard.

Yun Qing sighed: "You're right, sometimes having more children and grandchildren may not necessarily be a blessing." Sons like Qihao's are all here to collect debts.

Qiyou Extra Story (64)

At noon this day, Hong Lang went to Funing Palace to visit Hong Bin again. When he came back, he went to the study to endorse without taking a nap.

Yu Xi knew about this after taking a nap, and called Hong Lang over: "What did your brother tell you?"

Sensing that Yuxi was unhappy, Hong Lang felt a little uneasy: "Great-grandmother, my brother told me that my grandfather had already learned all the four books and five classics when he was six years old, and I have just started learning "Mencius" now." Hong Lang just learned After finishing the Analects, I only started studying Mencius a few days ago.

"anything else?"

Hong Lang said: "My brother said that the imperial grandfather likes hardworking and studious children. I must study hard so that the imperial grandfather will like me." Yuxi brought him up with one hand, and he was usually strict, so Hong Lang dared not hide it.

Yu Xi lightly touched the back of Hong Lang's head, and said: "You are growing your body now, so you must get enough sleep. If you don't get enough sleep, you will be in poor spirits, and you won't be able to concentrate on learning things. If things go on like this, you won't grow taller." It won't be good either."

Hong Lang was dubious.

When he practiced in the afternoon, he knew that Yuxi hadn't lied to him. Usually, he can learn what Zao Zao taught him. But this time he always wanted to sleep, and couldn't concentrate no matter what, so that he didn't listen to what Zao Zao said.

No matter what the reason is, Zao Zao will be punished if she fails to meet her requirements. Hong Lang was beaten several times that afternoon. Because he was wronged, Hong Lang gritted his teeth and dared not call out the pain.

Coincidentally, this scene was seen by Zhou Shushen who came over. At that moment, she was so distressed that tears fell. It's just that she also knew that it was her son's blessing to let Zao Zao teach martial arts, so she gritted her teeth and said nothing.

Dry Lian said to him: "Princess, the Empress Dowager is waiting for you in the house."

Seeing her red eyes, Yuxi said, "Do you know why Honglang was punished today?" Honglang's basic skills are very solid, learning martial arts is twice the result with half the effort. Zao Zao taught him that these days at most, he had hit the palm of his hand, and it was the first time to use a willow stick.

Speaking of which, Zao Zao was merciful, thinking that Huo Changqing used a whip to beat her back then. It is already very gentle when it is drawn with wicker.

Zhou Shushen shook her head and said: "I also ask the emperor's grandmother to express it." After Yuxi returned to the palace, she instantly reversed the disadvantages of their mother and son. The influence of the two old men was greater than she thought.

"Lang'er went to see Hong Bin at noon, and after he came back, the kid didn't take a nap and went to the study to memorize. He didn't take a nap because he didn't have enough energy, so he couldn't concentrate when he was practicing martial arts."

Zhou Shushen's complexion changed slightly: "Grandmother, I will speak well of Hong Bin."

Yu Xi shook her head and said: "The problem is not with Hong Bin, but with you. You have burdened Hong Bin too much, causing this child to bear a lot of pressure. Now, Hong Bin is going to transfer this pressure to Hong Lang .”

Zhou Shushen hurriedly said: "Grandmother, I didn't..."

"Whether there is, you know for yourself. Hong Lang doesn't need you to worry about it, I will teach him well. Now you should pay more attention to Hong Bin. He has suffered such a big change, and he needs more care from you, mother." She will be responsible for Hong Lang to the end, but she is powerless as for Hong Bin. As I get older, I don't have so much energy.

Zhou Shushen bowed her head and said, "Yes, Grandmother."

"Hong Bin's health is almost ready. Let him move back to Kang Wang's mansion these two days. Letting him stay in the palace will only increase his sorrow. It is better for him to go back to Kang Wang's mansion." From a grandson to an abandoned son, this kind of Some people can't bear the gap. Hong Bin is not bad, he is not in a slump.

Zhou Shushen nodded and said, "Yes, Grandmother."

Going to Funing Palace, Zhou Shushen told Hong Bin about it. She thought her son would be sad, but Hong Bin was relieved: "Mother, I should have returned to Prince Kang's Mansion long ago. It's just that the imperial grandfather didn't say anything, so I dare not take the initiative to mention it." It's not right. Kang Wang's Mansion is his mansion, and he feels more at ease living in it.

Hearing this, Zhou Shushen couldn't help but think of Yuxi's words, tears fell instantly.

Seeing this, Hong Bin was in a hurry: "Mother Concubine, what's wrong with you? But what did your son say wrong?"

Zhou Shushen wiped away her tears and said, "You are right, it is mother who is wrong. Mother shouldn't have put so much pressure on you, making you bear so much at such a young age."

"Mother Concubine, I am the eldest son, these are what I should do." After finishing speaking, Hong Bin blamed himself a little: "It's a pity that I let mother down."

Zhou Shushen shook her head and said, "No, you make mother very proud. Really, Hong Bin, mother is proud of having such a filial and sensible son like you."

Hong Bin cried when he heard this. From the time he was injured to the present, he has always been very strong, even though the pain was dying, he gritted his teeth and endured the tears. But he is only a thirteen-year-old child, so it is very hard to hold on like this.

Zhou Shushen blamed herself and felt guilty, she was really incompetent as a mother.

After moving back to Prince Kang's Mansion, she asked Xinyue to accompany Hongbin while she was taking care of the palace affairs. When she was at home, the two of them would accompany Hong Bin together. After a period of time, Hongbin's mental state improved significantly. Of course, this is something.

Hong Lang had to memorize and practice calligraphy every night. No sleep in the afternoon, no energy in the afternoon, and the same at night. I always dozed off when I was reciting, and I always made mistakes when practicing big characters.

At the end of Xushi, Yuxi asked him to take a bath and go to bed.

Hong Lang would be very sleepy, but he still shook his head and said, "Great-grandmother, I haven't finished writing."

Yuxi asked: "Sharpening a knife is not a job of chopping firewood by mistake, do you know the importance of taking a nap now?"

Hong Lang nodded and said: "Great-grandmother, I won't dare anymore." He must eat well and sleep well in the future, otherwise he will not grow tall and his health will not be good.

"Now that you know you're wrong, go to sleep. If you don't sleep well tonight, you won't be refreshed tomorrow."

Hong Lang hummed and said, "Great-grandmother, I will fill in the unfinished characters tomorrow."

"It's not necessary this time. But next time, great-grandmother will have to be punished severely."

Hong Lang shook his head and said, "Great-grandmother, I will definitely fill in the gaps." If it doesn't work for a day, then write more every day, and you can always fill in the gaps.

Yun Qing walked into the room and happened to hear this: "There are so many words, hurry up and go to sleep."

Only then did Hong Lang obediently wash up, and then went to bed. As soon as I touched the bed, I fell asleep.

Yun Qing returned to the bedroom, and said to Yu Xi: "Raising children is really tiring!" Just bringing them here to accompany him is naturally fun. But it is really not easy to raise a child and cultivate a talent.

This is the reason why Yunqing has been clamoring to have a child by her side in the past few years, but she disagreed desperately. Raising children is not like raising cats and dogs, convenience and convenience have to be considered. Otherwise, the child will be raised crookedly.

Yu Xi said: "If you are troubled, you will be troubled." She raised Hong Lang originally for Qi Hao and Qi You. Therefore, even if you are tired, you will admit it.

"These years, you have been troubled." Since Yuxi married him, she had a relatively easy life in the few years when she abdicated. Other times, it has been very busy.

Yu Xi said with a smile: "Knowing that I am troubled, you should take good care of your body and try to walk behind me."

Yun Qing nodded.

In a blink of an eye, another half month passed. Yu Xi said to Hong Lang: "Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will rest. Lang'er, where do you want to go?"

Hong Lang said: "Great-grandmother, the mutton restaurant that Fifth Brother took me to last time had delicious mutton. Great-grandmother, I think great-grandfather will definitely like it." He knew that Yunqing liked to eat mutton very much.

"It's really that delicious?"

Hong Lang nodded and said, "It's very delicious. It's the first time Fifth Brother went there, and he almost swallowed his own tongue." Now it's mid-October, and it's time to eat mutton.

Yuxi smiled and said, "That's okay, you take me and your great-grandfather there to have a taste tomorrow."

Seeing Yuxi's support, Hong Lang was overjoyed: "Great-grandmother, the owner of that store is so lazy that he cooks two pots of mutton in one day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. We are going to eat, so we have to say hello in advance. Otherwise, we may not be able to eat it." .”

This store is also a weird person, Yuxi smiled and said: "Okay, I will ask your little grandpa to say hello in advance."

Knowing this, Yun Qing couldn't believe it: "You said you took me to a mutton restaurant to eat mutton, did I hear you right?"

"I can only eat a small bowl." Now that the weather is getting colder, it is still no problem to eat a small bowl of mutton.

Yunqing was elated.

On the second day, Qiyou accompanied Yunqing and Yuxi to the mutton restaurant.

Hong Lang stood at the door, a little afraid to go in. Because the store is very clean, the greasy sign at the door is now clean and bright. It's changed a lot since last time.

Qiyou patted Honglang on the back, and said with a smile, "Why are you in a daze, go in!" Knowing that Yunqing and Yuxi were coming here to eat mutton, Qiyou quickly sent someone to clean the shop from inside to outside clean.

The owner of the shop was wearing a brand new indigo blue dress, and greeted the two warmly: "Old man, old lady, please." He knew Qiyou's identity, and there were only two old saints who could make King You so cautious. . It was also because he guessed the identities of the two that he was so enthusiastic.

In fact, regardless of their identities, it is said that the two of them will receive warm hospitality wherever they go at this age. Here, long-lived and healthy old people represent good fortune.

Yun Qing waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and cook the mutton, and serve it up as soon as it's done."

The craftsmanship of the store is really outstanding, and Yuxi couldn't help eating two bowls. The others also ate happily. This time, Pergo was overwhelmed again.

The happiest thing is Yun Qing: "Yuxi, let's eat again in a while!" This restaurant has great craftsmanship, but it's a pity that I didn't meet it when I was young. Otherwise, it would be fine for him to eat one pot alone.

"good."

Qiyou felt it was strange, avoided Yunqing and asked, "Mom, do you really want Dad to eat again later?" It was true that the food was delicious, but he was worried that Yunqing's body would not be able to bear it.

Yuxi laughed and said: "As he gets older, let him eat whatever he wants, as long as it's not too much." Yuxi also doesn't want Yunqing to endure too much, and it's no fun to endure everything in life.

Qiyou murmured in his heart, it's not easy to grasp if it's not too much. Next time, try to let his mother go with him.

Yuxi said: "If you are not busy in the future, take your father out for a while. He likes to be lively. If I am interested, I will go with him."

Qiyou smiled and said, "Okay."
