King Dingxi climbed up the pole, "When the new emperor comes, his son will take his mother and concubine to Jinlin Prefecture. That place will have the prosperity of Kyoto in just a few years, but it will be far away from Kyoto. By then, everything here will be involved." Without the son and mother-in-law, even if his throne is changed, it will have nothing to do with the son."
Concubine De thought about it seriously and felt that it was quite good. She knew how she had lived after being trapped in the palace for half her life, "Jinlin State is indeed a good place. Now that the Sha Kingdom is gone, there is no need for it." I’m worried that the two countries will encircle each other.”
King Dingxi nodded, "That's right."
Concubine De felt more relaxed when she no longer thought about the position of crown prince. She asked instead: "I heard that the fifth princess also went?"
King Dingxi was dazed for a moment, but in front of Concubine De, he continued: "Princess Kangle is extraordinary now...Who in the court will not give the Bai family face?"
Concubine De nodded and sighed, "I'm sorry for the princess."
Although I lived a happy life before, I feel so embarrassed now. There was originally a scramble for the fifth princess to get married, but now there is no sound. I don’t know if it’s because the prince just died and no one mentioned it at this time, or something else.
King Dingxi thought of Xuan Yuyan's change and said, "My son will go see her tomorrow."
Xuan Yuyan is the legitimate princess, but even if they and the prince don't deal with this matter, she will not be involved, so in fact, in his heart, there is no difference between Xuan Yuyan and his imperial sister.
Concubine De nodded and added, "Let's go see the fourth princess together. I heard that the illness left sequelae on the body. When you go, take Doctor Wang with you."
King Dingxi actually doesn't like Xuan Duanya. This dislike is the answer after getting along with her in daily life, not intuition.
But after Concubine De's last sentence, King Dingxi still didn't say no. After all, she was his imperial sister, so she couldn't really let others bully her.
The Bai family is very lively. The originally vacant yard has been cleared out early and is waiting for people. Now the servants are happily moving things. The old lady, Ni Dairou, He Mei, Bai Yujing and others in the house are also excited. extremely.
The family is finally back together, and they will be able to take care of each other in the future, not to mention that the second wife's status is definitely not low now, and she knows in her heart that she will not cause a lot of trouble.
Bai Mingshu was a little cautious. This time she came back for real, even Aunt Qiu was brought back, but...
Bai Mingshu knew the reason for this matter and had no reason to blame anyone here, but at this moment...
do not know what to do.
He Mei hadn't seen each other for a long time. The more she looked at them, the more she felt that they were much more beautiful than before. Not to mention that the clothes were much more exquisite than before. I am afraid that half of the legitimate daughters in Beijing would not dare to compare.
He Mei looked at Ni Dairou with careful eyes, and she remembered that there was another general in the house.
It is not impossible for one person to want two people to be wives for the general, but...
He Mei had already heard about the news that General Chi Zhong was seeing his wife in Yifang. Later, major events came one after another with no follow-up. Now, although the crown prince has been changed, no one dares to do anything at this juncture. , but from this news we can tell that Ni Dairou had no such plan.
There is no such intention to give such good treatment to others, I can only say...
He Mei smiled and faced Bai Mingshu, "Have you gotten used to it these days? You and Ming Xia were both born in Fengzhou and rarely come back, but this is the root of the Bai family. You can't make a fool of yourself when you go out in the future."
Ni Dairou smiled and continued, "Both of your girls are smart and will definitely be able to adapt. Besides, even if they can't adapt, won't they still have their cousins? If you want to go back to Fengzhou when the time comes, you still want to go somewhere and say where? I still can’t go.”
The old lady looked at the two of them and said nothing else, but her kind eyes gave them great comfort.
Bai Mingshu felt complicated.
She should be grateful. After all, if her mother caused such a thing, she was honestly not capable of solving it. After these people dealt with it, they did not involve them and gave them the honor they have now. If you really calculate it carefully It seems that if she talks about her mother at this time, she is really being ungrateful.
But how could she do it by letting her talk and laugh as if nothing had happened?
Fortunately, He Mei and Ni Dairou did not continue to talk about her, but instead asked about what happened along the way.
Bai Mingshu wanted to go back to Fengzhou after just a few days in Kyoto. It was not because she was not used to it, but because she still had unfinished things to do in Fengzhou. During these days when she came back, these were all left to her. Pang Yan was asked to do it, but from the letters that have been sent back recently, it can be seen that Pang Yan was a little unable to survive, so Bai Mingshu went to greet the old lady at the end of the month and told the matter.
The old lady didn't leave anyone behind, "Your cousin won't harm you. Just do whatever she asks you to do, and the benefits will be great."
Bai Mingshu had already understood this during these days, so she solemnly nodded and said, "My granddaughter will do it, and she will never let my cousin down."
The old lady looked at Bai Mingshu and nodded firmly, then suddenly asked: "You have a grudge? Do you blame me and your cousin for not saving your aunt?"
Bai Mingshu shook her head quickly, "My granddaughter has never blamed her grandmother or cousin... How can my cousin and granddaughter, who can take Mingxia with her and teach her without implicating Mingxia, blame her indiscriminately."
At this point, Bai Mingshu lowered her head and her voice became softer, "My granddaughter regrets why she didn't stop her when she was still with her. No matter what the result is, she worked hard at that time and feels less regretful now." of."
Maybe it could also save my aunt at that time.
"People have too many regrets in life." The old lady looked outside, "Don't let this regret become your own heart disease. If you have a heart disease, it will always hurt and drag you down."
Bai Mingshu was silent for a few moments, and then said: "But there is always no way."
The old lady said nothing more, Bai Mingshu resigned and left.
Bai Mingshu thought that this incident would leave a deep impression in her heart, but in fact, when she once again devoted herself to busy work, everything else faded away.
She even forgot about her life experience and her identity. She only felt that she was really fulfilled here. She did something every day and in the end, these things bore fruit. The pride was something she had never experienced before.
At this moment, Bai Mingshu suddenly thought of Ging Guo. She was wondering if she would also like this feeling. That's why she didn't like the intrigues in Kyoto, and she didn't like the back house, so she had to work hard to stand in front of the world. Only in this way can she Get what you want.
Bai Mingshu wrote a letter to Bai Mingxia asking about her recent situation and asking if Bai Guo had taught her seriously.
Bai Guo took Bai Mingxia with her when she left this time. Bai Mingshu didn't want Bai Mingxia to go to such a far and dangerous place at first, but Bai Guo told her that Bai Mingxia would only be affected by rumors if she stayed here, so in the end Bai Mingshu Still agreed.
When Bai Mingshu saw the reply while busy, she was shocked to realize that a lot of time had passed. When she opened the reply, the handwriting on it began to show resilience. If you look closely, there is still a bit of ginkgo handwriting.
Bai Mingxia said that she met many people along the way. Some of these people were to thank her cousin, some were to stop them, and some were here to intercept and kill her. It was not easy to walk along the way, and what was even more difficult was that the people there did not have enough to eat.
The soldiers didn't know how to deal with it, so they simply turned a blind eye, causing the officials below to follow suit and starve to death for more people.
Therefore, on the same day when he entered Ruiyu Prefecture, Bai Guo ordered the execution of the three leading officials, which shocked a large number of soldiers and officials and allowed the people of Ruiyu Prefecture to see the real Zhou Kingdom.
On the same day, Bai Guo ordered that a layer of grain and grass collected from the fifteen states of Chengzhou be transported in. Anyone who disobeyed the order or disobeyed the order would be punished by military law.
Among them, Shangshuang Prefecture had the most violent response, but in less than a day, the complete order was displayed in front of everyone - the magistrates of the fourteen prefectures must transfer a layer of grain from their respective prefectures and transport it to Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture to ensure that the two prefectures The people were satisfied. Two years later, Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture repaid the fourteen prefectures with one layer of grain per year for a period of seventeen years. If the grain was repaid during the period, if the debt was still in short supply, it would be offset by double the price of gold and silver.
Shang Shuang Prefecture will not be included in the calculation, but the tax revenue from Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture in the next twenty years will be compensated for the restoration and construction of Shang Shuang Prefecture.
The fifteen prefectures are not allowed to spread words that affect the harmonious coexistence of the two prefectures and the fifteen prefectures. They are not allowed to insult or abuse Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture. The governors of each state are not allowed to be hostile to Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture.
Those who disobey orders or disobey orders will be dealt with according to military law and will not be tolerated.
Bai Mingxia also wrote in the letter that she had always thought that she would be safe after arriving in Ruiyu Prefecture, but she did not expect that someone could take advantage of her just by giving an order. Fortunately, her cousin had already predicted that the caravan would be captured. The people walked and passed the correct orders to the fifteen states to ensure that there was no dispute this time.
Bai Mingxia also said that she learned a lot from Bai Guo in Ruiyu Prefecture. She could handle conflicts between soldiers and generals, handle the distrust of the people, mediate the shirk and inaction between officials, and also learned to appease People's hearts.
She said she was very happy during these days. The people in the military camp were very nice to her. They always brought her delicious and fun things. They knew she liked bugs and they always caught them for her.
Even the horses in the military camp liked her and would come close to her when they saw her. She had recently learned to ride a horse, but she would always scream in fright. At this time, the soldiers in the military camp would always laugh at her, but Once she saw her cousin coming, he asked her to come down even more horrified than she was.
But her cousin didn't care about her horse riding. She was so busy that she often didn't have time to eat, but she still had to check her handwriting and the books she read every day. After doing this, she had too much time to play. And the military camp is really big.
Sister Yu is also a very nice person. She tells her stories about the battlefield, explains military tactics to her, and even takes her initiative to take her around.
The people also like her. When they see her, they always praise her, saying that she looks good, that she is well-educated, that she has a good appetite...
Bai Mingshu read the letter three or four times but felt that she had not finished it.
How wonderful.
It would be best if Ming Xia really wasn't affected by this incident. It would be better if she can live a good life in the future.
Knowing that at this moment, Bai Mingshu still didn't notice the seriousness of the matter, and Gingo, who was busy in his heart, also didn't notice that something was quietly changing.
