The Four Concubines

This is the third time that the Great Qin Imperial City has been breached in less than ten years. The imperial army and foreign servants cleaned the imperial city overnight, and before the curfew of the imperial city, a carriage drove out of the imperial city in a low-key manner. .

Yun Xiao and Changsun Wugou sat in the car, and the number one drove, without even saying hello to the others, they left directly.

On the second day of the Great Ceremony of Nations, envoys from various countries formally bid farewell to Daqin, and Dong Yubai sent them off on his behalf.

Before the start of the morning court, the Qintian supervisor ordered people to report the results of yesterday's stargazing, saying that it was a great auspicious omen that Ziwei Dixing rose and illuminated half of the starry sky during the stargazing in the past few days.

The courtiers danced with excitement in an instant, Ziwei star rose, this is God Blessing Qin!

"Okay." Dong Yubai said in front of the crowd, and the courtiers gradually became quiet.

"Hey, why hasn't the emperor arrived today?" After waiting for a long time, some courtiers began to whisper, and almost at the same time, footsteps came from the back of the hall.

Everyone gathered their eyes to look at the person who came, but they were shocked. Yun Liang, who was nearly seven years old, was wearing a gilded mang suit, holding Yun Xiao's jade crown in his hand, and walked towards the dragon chair step by step.

Yun Liang solemnly placed Liu Mian on the dragon chair, while she herself sat on the chair that the waiter had just moved and placed on the eighth step.

"This……"

"what does this mean?"

Yun Liang sat on it generously, although a little nervous but not restrained, he remembered what Xiao Chuo said to him, "Your uncle is gone, so you have to visit the courtiers for your uncle and urge them to see if they are doing well. I will do my best for Great Qin."

Yun Liang took a glance at Yun Xiao's Liu Mian, and the nervousness dissipated a bit, then looked around at the ministers below.

It was still Dong Yubai who started first, the three-generation prime minister folded his hands and bowed, shouting "See the emperor!"

The courtiers were taken aback for a moment, then paused to realize that the prime minister was not worshiping Yun Liang, but the crowned master on the dragon chair.

"See the emperor!" The rest of the courtiers bowed and saluted.

"Please get up."

Yun Liang's immature voice filled the hall.

Outside the imperial city, two fine horses were running side by side. Changsun Wuchen looked at the owner of the horse beside him. Seeing that her face was still complicated, he couldn't help saying, "I really don't need to see him? This may be your last I had a chance to meet him once."

Number Seven on the other horse pursed his lips, struggled in his eyes, but finally shook his head, "He has no family affection for me."

Changsun Wuchen nodded, respecting her thoughts, said no more, and the two left.

……

A month later, Chen Wei and Zhou Si left the palace together, and went south to Daqin to travel around.

Sitting in the Zichen Palace, Xiao Chuo felt that the palace, which was originally deserted, was even quieter now.

"Aunt Xiao, I talked about five things today, the first thing..."

Yun Liang would come to report to Xiao Chuo every day after the imperial court. Xiao Chuo did not find a full-time emperor teacher to teach Yun Liang, but directly took state affairs as an example, and guided him to think carefully. Teach little by little, and Yun Liang also learns little by little.

In the Zichen Palace, the young man narrates big and small things in a childish voice. The woman sitting on the main seat, holding a cinnabar pen, draws pictures on the paper on the table, occasionally raising her head, always Can crash into a pair of gentle eyes.

He is obviously such a cold person...

Three months later, Yun and Xiao finally arrived in Zhanjiang City. Different from the last quick march, this time Yunxiao came out to play and stopped and stopped on the road. When they arrived in Zhanjiang City, it was the same as five years ago , it is already winter, and today's Zhanjiang City, because of the improvement of the relationship between the two countries, has become the largest trading city in the Northland, and it is full of people.

The two lived in an inn and ate guest meals like ordinary couples. Yun Xiao took his eldest grandson Wugou to see the first waterwheel standing outside the city, and carefully explained the structure of the waterwheel to her by comparison. , and all kinds of things that happened when the waterwheel was built.

The eldest grandson Wugou interjected from time to time to ask some small questions, while No. [-] stood quietly in the distance, watching the pair of "bi people" from afar.

Their destination was not Zhanjiang City. Yun Xiao hadn't been able to enter Liaojiang in person last time, so she didn't want to leave any regrets this time.

When the two decided to go to Liaojiang, a thick layer of ice had already formed in Zhanjiang. Standing by the bridge, Yun Xiao thought about what happened back then, and on a whim, squatted down in front of Changsun Wugou with his back to her.

The eldest grandson Wugou was not polite, and smiled and rode on Yunxiao's back. There was a lot of people coming and going on the bridge, and Yunxiao walked carefully step by step under the bridge.

Zhanjiang is still the same Zhanjiang, but the cold windy night turns into a sunny day.

The two went deep into the hinterland of Liaojiang, followed the nomads to herd sheep and cattle, watched the lonely smoke all over the desert, and passed by the long river to set the sun.

In the spring of the seventh year of Tianwen, the two bid farewell to Liaojiang, where they had lived for a year, and returned to Zhanjiang City. Yun Xiao still did not disturb Wang Xia and Zhou Chen, stopped for a while, and started westward.

And in the early morning when they left Zhanjiang City, Zhou Chen, the great general of Dingbei, and Wang Xia, the prefect of Zhanjiang City, stood on the city wall early. A flimsy carriage disappeared into the sky.

In the autumn of the seventh year of Tianwen, Yunxiao and the others finally arrived in Pingcheng after half a year of traveling by boat. Although Guangxia "obeyed" Daqin on the surface, he never concealed his disobedience.

In the carriage, Yun Xiao took a long look at the Zhenxi Army who was practicing, and ordered No. [-] to drive into the desert.

The carriage drove all the way to the hinterland of Guangxia, as if she personally conquered the Guangxia royal court back then, the old village site before Yunting and Daixue had been completely abandoned, Yun Xiao took her eldest grandson Wugou to pay homage to Yunting and Daixue who were buried behind the village Snow.

The starry sky in Guangxia is still so bright and beautiful. Changsun Wugou for the first time did not forbid Yunxiao to drink. That night, Yunxiao leaned against Yunting's tombstone and filled his stomach with burning knives. Changsun Wugou said to "Daixue" Yun Xiao and Yun Liang all night.

The next morning, before Yun Xiao walked out of the village, he ran into Dai Xue's guard, the old man of Wang Ting, who didn't seem surprised to see Yun Xiao here.

After lighting incense and pouring wine for Yun Ting and Dai Xue, the man walked straight in front of Yun Xiao without looking at Yun Xiao, and only said two words, "Follow."

Yun Xiao and the others were taken to the newly built village. When the horse bandits attacked that time, many people in the village died, but most of them survived. The new village was still built next to the water, and many people were still alive. Remember Yun Xiao.

Yun Xiao was placed in the house of the village head, who was still the same village head, but his two sons were killed by horse bandits, and he guarded the largest house in the village by himself. The arrival of Yun Xiao and the three made the old man excited for a long time.

The eldest grandson Wugou was not at all squeamish. Yun Xiao went out during the day to teach the children in the village how to ride horses and make stirrups, while the eldest grandson Wugou helped the old man tidy up at home, and also learned how to thresh and grind wheat.

In the summer of the eighth year of Tianwen, Yun Xiao bid farewell to this village, and was about to head south. When she returned to Pingcheng, the Zhenxi Army stood along the road, and the drums shook the sky. The horn lightly whipped his horsewhip and walked away.

In the autumn of the ninth year of Tianwen, the two played together to the southernmost part of Daqin.The carriage drove on the official road separating Daqin and Pinglang, and finally stopped in front of the Trifold City, Pinglang's gateway to Daqin.

Yun Xiao didn't enter the city, even though the current leader of Pinglang was her former secret guard, the carriage stopped in front of the city, Yun Xiao just lifted the curtain and glanced at it, then asked No. [-] to turn the car around, and headed towards the Jiangnan area of ​​Daqin .

On the city wall of the Triassic City, number seven was already the Empress, looking at the leaving carriage with complicated eyes, and finally bowed to Yun Xiao.

In the winter of Tianwen Nine Years, Yun Xiao picked up a newborn girl on the official road to Chuncheng.

It was the end of the new year, and there was no one on the road alone. Number One was driving a car, but suddenly a figure jumped out from the side of the road. Number One stopped the carriage. Yun Xiao opened the curtain, and saw an old lady , holding her hands high and handing her a bag that didn't fit her own clothes.

Yun Xiao could tell that the woman's eyes were full of pleading, and what supported her was only a breath, Yun Xiao took over the burden, and the woman died with a smile.

Yun Xiao felt that the baggage was "moving" by herself, and when she opened it, she found that it was actually a child...

The eldest grandson Wugou named the girl Yunyao.

After arriving in Chuncheng, Yun Xiao asked No. [-] to buy a house in Chuncheng.

On the New Year's Eve of Tianwen Ninth Year, another family set off firecrackers in "Fugui Street" in Chuncheng, and there was a plaque on the gate of the house that said "Qin Mansion".

The owners of the house are a young couple. The husband's name is Qin Xiao. It is said that he is a worthless businessman who lives off his ancestors' property. The wife's name is Sun Jing. He looks like a fairy. year-old daughter, named Qin Yao.

The appearance of the Qin Mansion became the talk of the neighbors in the first month of Spring City's "Fugui Street".

"That Qin mansion looks ordinary from the outside, but it's really different inside! I went there once with my master, and our master talked about it for several days when he came back!"

"That's right! I've heard that too! Even the maids and servants in the Qin Mansion are different! Their temperament and demeanor! Maybe they will catch up with the imperial palace!"

"Hey! What's the latest news! The head of the Tang family has just come out of the Qin Mansion, and it is said that his legs and feet are weak when he leaves the house! What's wrong? I was so scared! It is said that it is the tea bowl that the Qin Mansion treats guests, it is Tian Qing After the rain! Do you know! Tang Laobao treasures good things that people usually don’t show to others, and they use them for entertaining guests!”

……

When No. [-] relayed these neighbor conversations to the empress, the eldest grandson Wugou was hugging Yunyao and feeding her rice cereal, while Yun Xiao was washing diapers.

Yunyao's matter, they never left others' hands.

Time flies, four years are fleeting, these few years have not been running around, Yun Xiao lives very comfortably, having nothing to do at home to tease the children to write books, or a few neighbors make an appointment to go out for a boat trip on the lake, and occasionally Left and right are invited to go out to eat and feast, but they never drink too much or get drunk.

The eldest grandson Wugou said that she was the matriarch of the family, but she was more like a lady from a big family, who never left the house without leaving the house. Apart from bringing the baby, she just painted and played the piano.

Yun Xiao writes books, she paints, and Yun Xiao fishes, she plays the piano.

You are in the painting, you are in Kotori, and you are in the heart...

In the winter of the 14th year of Tianwen, the emperor and empress, who had been away from the imperial palace for nine years, returned to the imperial capital with a five-year-old girl carved from jade.
