In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.
The team of Xue Baochai and others arrived at Liaoyang City.
Jia Cong personally led everyone to greet them at the gate of the palace.
Looking at the slowly approaching team, Jia Cong's heart was filled with anticipation.
He misses his wife and concubines whom he has not seen for two years, and also misses his four children whom he has never met.
I don’t know what the four little guys look like. Should they look like me or their mother?
It's already past the first birthday, and I haven't been able to catch up. I don't know if I will call you daddy?
Perhaps feeling Jia Cong's excitement, Lin Daiyu next to her reached out and held Jia Cong's hand.
Jia Cong turned around to look, and the two of them looked at each other with knowing smiles.
At this time, Lin Daiyu and Qingwen were all dressed like guards.
Because the senior official will come as Lin Daiyu, and at this time, he cannot be a gangster.
The two have already discussed it. Not only now, but also in the coming days, they will maintain their identity exchange.
Because, in a few days.
The maids and eunuchs who were given to Jia Cong by the emperor will come to Liaoyang City together with the troops who rewarded the three armies.
There are countless spies inside. The identities of the two cannot be revealed until they are dealt with.
These people were given by the emperor. Jia Cong knew that there were spies, but he still couldn't refuse.
It's not that I really can't refuse, but once I refuse, it will only make the emperor more suspicious and have more random thoughts.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Jia Cong decided to accept them all.
With these people watching him, the emperor would feel more at ease.
Jia Cong is not afraid that they will get some information. Even the women around him don't know about some important things and decisions. Only Lin Daiyu knows a little bit.
Just like Jia Cong's battle plan, Shi Nai, the second-largest figure in the army, did not know it beforehand.
It is almost impossible to get some useful information from Jia Cong.
With the fifty female guards brought by Chen Sanmei, the four female special forces team members around Lin Daiyu, plus Qingwen and the others, we can slowly uncover the undercover among the palace ladies.
As for the eunuchs who were sent, leave them to Dai Quan.
Let Dai Quan slowly find the spies among them.
At that time, these people can be used to convey some information that is deliberately made known to the emperor.
"Daddy, daddy."
A childish cry mixed with joy reached his ears, bringing Jia Cong's thoughts back to reality.
Jia Cong looked up and saw a small head sticking out of the window of one of the carriages, looking at him happily.
Jia Cong waved to him with a smile on his face. This child was a gift from heaven.
Since Jia Cong was at the door to greet him, Lingguan ordered the carriage to stop at the door. The group got off the carriage and saluted Jia Cong first.
Seeing this young man getting off the carriage, his eyes couldn't help but be in a trance.
He murmured: "It looks so similar. If I hadn't already known it, I wouldn't have recognized it all of a sudden."
Lin Daiyu chuckled and said, "I trained it myself, but it took several years of hard work. How could it be bad?"
At this time, the senior officer had already come to take him.
He took a look at Lin Daiyu first, and seeing how she was dressed, he knew that nothing could be seen at this time.
Then he looked at Jia Cong and said hello to Jia Cong.
"I have met the prince."
Jia Cong reached out to help her up and smiled at her.
"Princess, it's been a long journey all the way. It's been really hard. Let's go home first."
"Well, I understand. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
The young official raised his head and glanced at Jia Cong, then stood beside him.
Immediately afterwards, Xue Baochai also came over, looking at Jia Cong with deep longing in his eyes.
Affection.
In her arms, she was holding a little girl carved in pink and jade, looking at her curiously. She looked really cute. This must be her daughter Ruotong.
"I have met the prince."
Xue Baochai hugged her daughter, bent her knees, and was supported by Jia Cong.
"You're not an outsider, so why should we meet outsiders? Sister Bao, I haven't seen you in the past two years, but you miss me so much. You have worked so hard to bring up this child. Is this our daughter Ruotong?"
Originally, she was filled with joy when she saw Jia Cong. After listening to Jia Cong's words, Xue Baochai felt that it was all worth it.
"Tongtong, this is your daddy, please call me daddy."
The little girl stared at Jia Cong and blinked a few times, then looked at Xue Baochai.
After getting her mother's affirmative look, she turned around and shouted to Jia Cong in a sweet voice, "Daddy."
"Hey, my good daughter, you can call me daddy now. It's really amazing. Come here and let daddy hug you."
Jia Cong's heart melted when his daughter called him daddy.
He reached out to take his daughter and held her in his arms, teasing the little girl.
The little girl didn't recognize him, she just looked at her father curiously, and then she started to giggle.
This may be due to the closeness of blood.
"This girl is so cute."
When Lin Daiyu saw the little girl's appearance, she couldn't help but reach out and pinch her little face.
Xue Baochai looked over and was stunned for a moment when he saw Lin Daiyu's appearance. Then he looked at Lin Daiyu standing on the other side. At this moment, he seemed to understand something completely.
"Daddy."
"Daddy."
Two immature children's voices sounded one after the other.
Two small figures were stumbling toward him with open arms, expressions of joy and desire on their faces.
These two children are Tianci and Polu.
Polu is also three years old, and Tianci is four years old.
Seeing the two brothers running towards him, Jia Cong's smile became even bigger.
"Tianci, Polu, run slower, be careful not to fall."
Jia Cong held his daughter, squatted down, and took the two little guys into his arms.
"Dad, why don't you go home and see me? I miss you."
"Daddy, I miss you too."
Jia Cong chuckled and said, "Daddy misses you too, but he is too busy and has no time. Now that he has time, he picked you up. From now on, daddy will play with you every day."
"Really, daddy, that's great, you can play with daddy in the future."
Feeling the joy and attachment of his two sons, Jia Cong was also touched in his heart.
Children of this size are at their cutest and most lovable.
I hope they can stay so happy, carefree and joyful all their lives.
Ping'er and Chan'er came over and pulled the two children away.
Jia Cong smiled at them: "Thank you for your hard work along the way."
Ping'er smiled and said, "I have met the prince, and I walked slowly along the way. It was not too hard, but these two little guys were quite noisy. They were curious about everything they saw along the way and asked about this and that."
Chan'er also bowed: "I have met the prince."
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Okay, no need to be polite, let's go home first."
Just as he was talking, Xiang Ling, Hai Lanzhu, and Da Yu'er came over holding a little boy in their arms.
"I have met the prince."
Jia Cong stretched out his hand to stop them and said with a smile: "Okay, everyone, get up. Thank you for your hard work. You are all great contributors to the Jia family."
Xiang Ling giggled and said, "My lord, look, this is our son, do you like it?"
"Yeah, of course I like it."
As Jia Cong spoke, he stretched out his hand to hug the child.
Hug it with one hand
One, there are two more that I can’t hold.
Seeing this, Xue Baochai hugged her daughter over.
Jia Cong hugged his three sons one by one, said hello to everyone behind him, and then led everyone into the palace.
Xichun followed Jia Cong and said with an unkind expression.
"Brother, you brought Sister Yun here last year, why didn't you bring your sister over too? Did you forget about your sister?"
Jia Cong smiled: "Isn't there a war at that time? Moreover, the palace has not been built yet, and there is no place to live for everyone here. Besides, the climate here is cold, and I don't want you to suffer."
Tan Chun said with a resentful look: "Humph, you just forgot about us. You didn't even plan to let us come this time. It's really too much."
"That's right, we don't believe you anymore."
Jia Cong smiled awkwardly: "I wanted to wait until I was completely stabilized before picking you up. Now that I'm here, I don't have to make another trip."
"Humph, I believe you."
The group of people arrived at the inner courtyard of the palace. Yuanyang was busy arranging the courtyard for everyone and letting everyone settle down first.
There were quite a few people coming this time. In addition to a group of wives and concubines, fifty female guards, and a dozen cooks.
Jia Cong looked at the Yingying Yanyan, the people coming and going, and the six babbling children, with a warm smile on his face.
This big family is finally reunited today.
After everyone settled down, they took a shower and rested for a while.
In the evening, a family banquet was held to welcome everyone.
After some eating, drinking and fun, everyone dispersed.
Jia Cong held his daughter in his arms and went to her yard with Xue Baochai.
I played with the little girl for a long time, until she fell asleep, and then asked the wet nurse to take the child down.
Jia Cong took Xue Baochai's hand and sat down by the bed.
Xue Baochai's face turned red, and she was a little excited. She hadn't seen him for two years, and the longing in her heart could no longer be suppressed.
Leaning gently into Jia Cong's arms...
······
After some lingering, neither of them felt sleepy, so they cuddled together and talked quietly.
"Your Majesty, I have given birth to a daughter, will you not be disappointed? I want to give you a son, how about we have another one."
Of the four women, she was the only one who gave birth to a daughter, and the other three women all gave birth to sons.
This made her feel a little bit more stressed.
I desperately want to know what Jia Cong is really thinking.
Jia Cong smiled: "My daughter is pretty good too. Our daughter is so cute. I like her very much. Both my son and my daughter are my children. They have the same status in my heart. Don't think too much about it. It's no big deal. Just give birth to a few more in the future.”
Hearing what he said, Xue Baochai was completely relieved and a smile appeared on his face.
In this era, boys are favored over girls. People as enlightened as Jia Cong are really rare. Of course, it’s not that they don’t exist, they are just relatively rare.
It is really his luck to meet people like Brother Cong.
"Well, I will definitely be able to save my son."
Jia Cong smiled and said, "We are still young and have plenty of time. Don't be in a hurry. Don't take it too seriously."
"I know. By the way, my lord, how are you and girl Qin? I just came here today, and that girl deliberately avoided me again. I didn't even have time to ask her. My mother also said that if you really mean it, you can Take her in."
As Xue Baochai spoke, he carefully observed Jia Cong's expression.
Jia Cong smiled awkwardly: "I guess you all can see what Baoqin is thinking. Naturally, I can feel it in my heart. Knowing her situation, I don't want to make you unhappy, so I don't want to talk to you either. What does she have.
I thought that if she couldn't see me for a long time, she would forget about me when she got married. Unexpectedly, she secretly followed Xiangyun to Liaoyang. I had a conversation with her and saw that she was so persistent, so I agreed to her. , Sister Bao, you won’t blame me. "
Xue Baochai rolled his eyes and thought to himself, he knew this was the result.
A man will chase you across a mountain, but you will chase him across a veil.
That girl Baoqin took the initiative to pursue her and was as beautiful as a flower. She was three points better than herself.
It would be strange if Brother Cong is not moved.
"I just want to blame you, but it's of no use. They say rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests. How can you turn around and attack the people around you?"
Jia Cong really didn't know how to answer.
Are you telling her that you are the rabbit that only eats grass on the edge of the nest?
He could only helplessly smile: "Nothing else but familiarity with you."
"Bah, shameless."
As he said this, he also chuckled.
······
Next, Jia Cong stayed at home.
During the day, I played with my son and daughter, and at night, I played with my child's mother, enjoying family happiness in advance.
Hai Lanzhu, Dayu'er, and Xiao Yu'er approached Jia Cong together.
"Your Majesty, we are a little homesick. When will you send us home for a visit?"
When he saw the three sisters, they looked at him expectantly.
Jia Cong pondered for a moment: "Don't worry, you have just traveled such a long way, take a good rest first. We haven't seen each other for so long, so let me accompany you well. The court will send someone over in a few days. First, After dealing with those people, I will take you home to see them."
Hai Lanzhu said a little happy, but also a little worried.
"Your Majesty, we are naturally very happy if you accompany us back, but is it too risky?"
Xiao Yuer said: "Sister, are you worried that Father Khan will be harmful to the prince? It shouldn't be the case, right?"
Jia Cong smiled and said, "Don't worry, they shouldn't dare to provoke me. At worst, I'll bring more people over. They won't have the guts."
Dayu'er said: "Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty is in Liaodong, and he is the overlord of the north. My father does not dare to harm your Majesty. When we go back, we can also encourage them to submit to your Majesty. That will only be more beneficial to them."
Jia Cong smiled, this Da Yu'er is quite discerning.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. During this period, let the caravan prepare a batch of gifts from the south, such as silk, ceramics, tea, etc., and then use them as gifts for you to take with you."
When the three sisters heard this, they all laughed.
After being away from home for so many years, who doesn’t want to go home in glory?
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
