A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

Chapter 27: Mom, stop digging. I really don’t like eating wild vegetables (3)

As Wang Baochuan arrived at Wujiaopo, Xue An began to plan. He first took out the jade pendant that originally belonged to Xue Pinggui through Xue Qi.

"Sister-in-law, this looks like my brother's jade pendant." Xue Qi pretended to search for it, and then took out a replica of the jade pendant.

"This is Pinggui's jade pendant, but Pinggui never leaves it without a care in the world. How did it end up at home?"

"Perhaps your elder brother left it for you, but left before he could get it?" Xue Qi explained. Wang Baochuan looked at the jade pendant and accepted this explanation.

Wang Baochuan couldn't help being moved when she thought that Xue Pinggui had left the jade pendant that he always carried with him for her. She gave the jade pendant to Xue An and prayed that the dead Pinggui could bless their child.

Xue An had no idea whether Xue Pinggui could protect him, but he really couldn't resist Wang Baochuan's wild vegetables and delicacies. It was still a bit outrageous.

When Wang Baochuan left home this time, she brought a few servants with her. The servants' monthly salary was also paid by the prime minister's mansion. In other words, Wang Baochuan only needed to enjoy them, but Wang Baochuan didn't want to.

She believed that she should follow her husband wherever he goes. Now that Xue Pinggui was gone, she had to protect her and Xue Pinggui's home even more. She also had to make Xue An always remember the hardships of their parents. Xue An was so angry that he laughed when he saw the wild vegetables on the table.

What did Wang Baochuan think of feeding a one-year-old child with wild vegetables? Xue An understood that she was a first-time mother and didn't know how to take care of the child, but you should at least ask the nanny who followed you!

It was Xue An's nanny who saw this and quickly stopped Wang Baochuan's behavior: "Miss San, this child can't eat these!"

"Can't we eat it? But haven't Pinggui and the others been eating it since they were young?" Wang Baochuan was puzzled.

"Sister-in-law, my elder brother and I started eating these when we were older. And we didn't eat wild vegetables every meal. We also grew some food to eat." Xue Qi came at the right time. If it had been any later, Xue An might have been choked to death by the wild vegetables.

With the joint persuasion of the wet nurse and Xue Qi, Wang Baochuan finally gave up the idea of ​​feeding Xue An with wild vegetables temporarily. Xue An breathed a sigh of relief and planned to seize the time to make plans.

Five years later, the emperor's only son finally succumbed to the disease and died. The only bloodline left by this prince was a little daughter, which hit the emperor hard.

The court officials also began to curry favor with the royal family. After all, the emperor was no longer at the age to have children, and the next emperor could only come from the royal family. However, Wang Yun did not curry favor with anyone. It was not that he did not want to, but that he could not.

As the prime minister, if Wang Yun had joined a royal family, it would have been a blatant act of forcing the emperor to make a choice. Not to mention whether the emperor would be happy about it, even the court officials would not agree. So Wang Yun could only be a royalist.

The emperor was also very satisfied with Wang Yun's behavior, but he secretly sent more people to look for Concubine Liu's son. He had a hunch that the child must still be alive.

With the secret help of someone who was interested, General Liu found out some clues and immediately reported it to the emperor.

"You mean to say that my son was sent to Wujiaopo and may be a beggar now?" The emperor was immediately heartbroken that his own prince was now a beggar.

"I am not sure about the prince's identity, but I have a rough idea. Give me some more time and I will find him," General Liu said firmly. That was his sister's only child, and he would definitely find him.

Xue An drank the wild vegetable soup carefully prepared by Wang Baochuan and smacked his lips. After eating too much fish and meat, it was indeed quite comfortable to drink some wild vegetables. However, if Wang Baochuan saw that he was so receptive to wild vegetables, she might give him wild vegetables for every meal.

Xue An drank his soup while thinking, while Wang Baochuan looked at Xue An and said sadly: "Pinggui, our children are so big now, I have done my best for you. When the children get married in the future, I will come to accompany you."

"Sister-in-law, I'm here to see you." Xue Qi appeared again in time, interrupting Wang Baochuan's daily thoughts about her deceased husband.

"Why do you bring these things here every time? An'er and I can't use them at all." Wang Baochuan refused the things Xue Qi sent, but Xue Qi was also doing things according to Xue An's instructions, so naturally she would not refuse.

"Sister-in-law, just take it. An'er is at the stage of growing up, and these things cannot be missing." Xue Qi persuaded Wang Baochuan to accept the things after much persuasion.

"Xiao Lian, let's go put our things down." Wang Baochuan instructed Xiao Lian: "Xiao Qi, please help me look after An'er first, I'll go pack up."

"Okay, sister-in-law, just go and do your work. I'll take An'er out to play for a while." Xue Qi took Xue An's hand and left.

"How did things go?"

"General Liu has already found Wujiapo. Should we let him know Xue Pinggui's identity?" Xue Qi lowered his head and reported to Xue An: "Wei Bao has already erased the information about Xue Pinggui, and he also found that the deaths of the emperor's children all had traces of the royal family."

"Disclose Xue Pinggui's affairs to the clan members, and let them lead the way for the emperor." Xue An instructed: "Remember, you must let General Liu find out, and then the emperor will naturally clear the obstacles for me."

Xue Qi left with Xue An's order. Xue An frowned as he looked at her back. After all, she was too kind. If he just wiped her consciousness and fed her puppet pill, he could control it directly. Why would he need to pass on the message specifically?

"An'er, why are you out playing today? Didn't your mother let you study?" Ge Qing was passing by with her daughter in her arms and happened to meet Xue An who was alone.

"Why did Aunt Qing bring Niao Niao out today?"

"Hey, didn't my family receive some fabrics a few days ago? I think the colors are nice, so I thought of asking your mother to draw some patterns for me so that I can make some clothes for Niao Niao when I go back." Then he came over and took Xue An's hand: "Let's go, I can take you back with me."

Ge Qing was interrupted by Xue An and didn't remember what he wanted to ask Xue An. He took Xue An back home, put Niao Niao on the ground to keep Xue An company, and went to talk to Wang Baochuan.

"What is Brother An An doing there alone?" Little Niao Niao did not forget her mother's question.

"Brother originally wanted to find some grass to weave a dragonfly for you, but I didn't expect that I couldn't find the right grass," Xue An said casually.

"Brother, you are lying. There is no grass that can be used to weave dragonflies there." Niao Niao was smart and exposed Xue An's lie at once, which made Xue An a little interested.
