Chapter 528
In the morning, when I opened the door and walked out, there was a white layer of fog outside, and a white layer of frost on the ground.
Yuxi exercised in the house to soothe her muscles and bones, walked out of the yard and looked at the sky above her head, and said, "I'm afraid it will rain today." The sky is cold, and the air exhaled is white.
Yu Xi didn't go out either, but turned and went to the ear room. Liu'er is still living in the ear room now! There is still more than half a month to give birth, and Yuxi is becoming more and more cumbersome now. Licorice wanted to help her, but Yu Xi pushed her away: "It's not that far yet!"
Liu'er has woken up now, and Mother Lan is combing her hair. Looking at Yuxi, Liu'er smiled happily and said, "Mom, you are here." It was also because Yuxi was pregnant and couldn't hold her, otherwise she would definitely rush over.
Yu Xi touched Liu'er's head with a smile, and said, "Come and have breakfast with Liu'er!" After finishing speaking, she took the poplar comb from Mother Lan's hand, tied two braids for Liu'er, and then Two coral beads are wound.
Not long after breakfast, Xu Wu came over and said, "Princess, a man who claimed to be Hong Quan came outside. Hong Quan said he was a subordinate of the prince's father, and he came to join our prince." In the mansion, I happened to go to the military camp today. Xu Wu didn't know this person, so he didn't know how to arrange him.
Yu Xi asked: "Where did they come from?" Hearing Xu Wu said that they came from Liaodong, Yu Xi frowned. Liaodong is Yan Wushuang's territory, does this person come here sincerely or does he have some other purpose.
Xu Wu said: "Princess, Hong Quan brought his daughter to seek refuge, but his daughter looks a little ugly." It is really ugly to make Xu Wu say ugly.
Yuxi thought for a while and said: "Since you are the father-in-law's subordinate, you should settle him down first, and then ask questions carefully to see the details of this person." Now Yuxi doesn't even see acquaintances, let alone strangers up.
Xu Wu said: "The adoptive father happens to be in the mansion, why don't you let the adoptive father go to see this person. The adoptive father has been to Liaodong, maybe he can find out the details of this person." The prince of his family has been famous for more than ten years. He should have come here long ago, how could he have waited until now, so Xu Wu also had doubts about this person.
Yuxi nodded her head and said: "You don't need Uncle Huo to talk to him, you can just talk to him directly! If he is sincerely coming to defect, it's the same if you talk about it."
Xu Wu nodded and said, "Okay."
When noon was approaching, Xu Wu told Yu Xi all the news he got from Hong Quan. When Tongcheng suffered a catastrophe, Hong Quan escaped death by luck. However, after this incident, he was disheartened and returned to his hometown to farm. Not long after, he married a wife in his hometown, and later gave birth to two sons and a daughter.
Xu Wu said: "Two years ago, Hong Quan's eldest son died in the war. At the beginning of the year, the youngest son died of illness. His wife couldn't bear the blow and followed her. Now, he and his daughter are left to depend on each other."
Seeing that Yuxi didn't speak, Xu Wu continued: "The war in Liaodong has continued these years, and life for ordinary people has become more and more difficult. He heard that the situation in the northwest is good, so he brought his daughter to join him."
After listening carefully, Yu Xi said, "Put them in the guest room! Wait for the prince to see him, and then see how to arrange them."
In the afternoon, Yunqing came back from the barracks. Hearing that Xu Wu said that someone named Hong Quan came to join him, Yun Qing was both surprised and happy, and said, "Where is Uncle Hong now?"
Xu Wu hurriedly led Yunqing to the guest room, and asked as he walked: "Is the lord familiar with this Hongquan?
Yun Qing nodded and said: "He is my father's personal bodyguard, he is very skilled in martial arts, and he even blocked an arrow for my father before." When he was six years old, Yun Qing's father took Hong Quan back to the capital, so he is very fond of him. Hong Quan was still very impressed.
Entering the yard, looking at the aging Hong Quan, Yun Qing didn't know what it was like: "Uncle Hong." More than 20 years ago, Hong Quan was tall and burly,
Like a mountain. But now Hong Quan is gray in two buns, with a miserable complexion and bent back, looking like he is in his sixties or seventies. In fact, Hong Quan is only in his fifties this year.
Hong Quan looked at Yunqing seriously, and said with a smile: "If the general is still here, I will be very pleased to see the young general like you now."
The two talked for a long time before Hong Quan remembered to introduce his daughter: "Major General, this is the little girl Yeliu. Yeliu, come, I have met the Major General."
Yeliu looked up at Yunqing, and called out: "Hello, Major General." The voice was like a bubbling spring, very nice.
Xu Wu looked at the girl, his eyes straightened. Is this the smelly girl he saw not long ago? If such a woman also said she was ugly, there would be no matchmaker in the world.
This young girl is delicate and elegant, with an extremely beautiful complexion, wearing a loose indigo dress worn by a servant girl, it still cannot hide her slender figure. There are not many such beauties in places like Northwest, even Jiangnan, which is famous for producing beauties.
Yun Qing had just heard Xu Wu say that Hong Quan's daughter was ugly, but she didn't expect that Miss Hong was so outstanding. But Yun Qing didn't think too much about it. Xu Wu said that this girl was ugly before, so she probably changed her appearance. Going out, ugly and safe, so outstanding
Seeing Xu Wu, the girl blushed and lowered her head. That shy appearance is indescribably charming. When Xu Wu saw it, his throat rolled over unconsciously, and he swallowed.
Hearing the voice, Yun Qing glanced at Xu Wu, seeing a woman swallowing her mouth was really useless.
Hong Quan hurriedly explained to Yun Qing: "It's a long way from Liaodong to the northwest. I was worried that Liu'er would cause trouble if she showed her true face, so I asked her to smear pot ashes on her face. Only then did I arrive in the northwest safely."
When Yun Qing heard Hong Quan calling Liu'er, he frowned slightly. This woman actually has the same name as my precious daughter, which sounds really awkward.
Xu Wu interjected with a smile, and said, "Miss Hong's appearance is really one of a kind. If this is in the Northwest, the matchmaker must have stepped through the threshold." It is the source of disaster.
Hong Quan smiled wryly and said: "I am also afraid that my daughter's appearance will cause trouble. I dare not let her go out at home. Even if she goes out, she will go out in disguise. It's a pity that the secret is so secret. Half a year ago, someone saw the real face of the little girl." , I want to take my daughter as a concubine. I was also forced to do nothing, so I brought my daughter to join the Major General." In this case, it is reasonable.
Xu Wu said: "So it is like this!" As for whether Xu Wu believed it in his heart, that was unknown.
Yun Qing was silent for a while, and asked: "Uncle Hong, from now on, being in the palace will be like being in your own home, you don't have to be restrained." Hong Quan is kind to his father, and now that he has the ability, he must treat him kindly.
Hong Quan hesitated for a moment.
Seeing this, Hong Yeliu pulled Hong Quan's clothes and called softly, "Father, let's stay in the palace!" , I can show my true colors.
Hong Quan sighed, leaned over to Yun Qing and said, "Thank you, Young General." If he was alone, he could live by renting a few acres of land. But with his daughter's appearance, it is only safe to stay in the palace.
Yun Qing shook his head and said: "This is what I should do." Not to mention anything else, only Hong Quan blocked an arrow for his father, and he should accept this love.
Seeing this, Xu Wu interjected another sentence, and asked, "Uncle Hong, I wonder how old Miss Hong is?" Hearing that she was fifteen years old, Xu Wu seemed to say unintentionally, "It's time to kiss at this age. Miss Hong So outstanding, when the time comes, Miss Hong can choose one of the outstanding sons in the Northwest."
Hong Quan looked at his daughter who was so ashamed that she wished she could burrow into the ground, and hurriedly said: "She still has her mother's filial piety, so this marriage should wait until the filial piety is done."
Xu Daniu came in from the outside and said: "My lord, Mr. Han has something to see." Now Hong Yeliu lowered his head, but Xu Daniu didn't let Xu Daniu see him.
Seeing this, Yun Qing turned to Hong Quan and said, "Uncle Hong, if you need anything, just tell the butler." Hong Quan and Hong Yeliu were placed in the front yard, and the location of the yard was a bit remote.
Xu Wu didn't go with Yunqing, but stayed behind. Xu Wu smiled and said to Hong Quan: "Uncle Hong, you just came to the palace, and you don't know some taboos, let me tell you."
While speaking, Xu Wu looked at Hong Yeliu from time to time. Obviously, he was overwhelmed by Hong Yeliu's beauty, and when he left, he reluctantly looked at Hong Yeliu.
Hong Quan was very angry when he saw this, but Keren had to bow his head under the eaves. If he gets angry now, maybe the palace can't stay any longer.
After Xu Wu left the courtyard, he went to look for Yuxi, and told Yuxi what happened just now: "Princess, this Hong Yeliu is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."
Yuxi smiled and said: "After hearing what you said, I really want to meet this woman." See who is more beautiful between Hong Yeliu and Yuchen.
Xu Wu hurriedly said: "Princess, this woman looks strange, and the concubine must not go to see her." After finishing speaking, Xu Wu told Yu Xi that he was stunned by Hong Yeliu just now without embarrassment. After finishing speaking, Xu Wu said solemnly: "Princess, I always feel that the scene at that time is not quite right." Not boasting, Xu Wu thinks that his concentration is very good. That Hong Yeliu was very beautiful, but no matter how beautiful she was, it would not make him swallow her saliva.
After hearing this, Yuxi somehow remembered the beauty trick that Tie Kui told her. Yu Xi asked with a cold face: "What was the prince's reaction at that time?" Perhaps, this was the beauty trick that uncle said. Yan Wushuang really spent a lot of money, in order to drive a wedge between their husband and wife, even such a beauty is willing to give up.
Xu Wu hurriedly said: "The prince didn't even look at Miss Hong." He was ashamed to say that, compared with the prince, his concentration was still a bit weaker.
Yuxi smiled when she heard this, and said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will handle it." Although it is guessed that it was a beauty trick by Yan Wushuang, but Hong Quan is in a special situation, and it is necessary to find out the truth. The evidence is enough, otherwise, she is making trouble unreasonably. (to be continued)
