A few more boring days passed, and Chu Qing finally ushered in the New Year. It was also the first time since his debut that he spent the New Year in Beijing with everyone he cared about.
Children are always the ones looking forward to the Chinese New Year the most.
Because I am carefree, because I have to wear new clothes, because I have received lucky money, because I am very free, and because all the food and clothing expenses are saved by adults who have been frugal for a long time.
Chu Qing is not a child, but like a child, he is extremely idle.
Like a child, but not as happy as a child.
As a prince of the country, as a well-known "Lord" manufacturing machine, just sitting in the Chu Mansion, countless people have crossed the threshold.
Originally there were not so many people, but Chu Qing was very quiet after he came back. Until news came out from the palace that he had voluntarily resigned as the commander of Qianqi Camp, many people began to sleep peacefully.
They thought Chu Qing had to kill a few more aristocratic families to celebrate the New Year.
Seeing that the New Year is over, Chu Qing is still very quiet. Many aristocratic families have changed their minds and entered the palace to find the emperor, but they no longer want to go to the peninsula.
In short, the quiet Chu Qing made many people uneasy.
Leaning on the stool with his head tilted, Chu Qing stared at the ceiling, holding a baby in his arms, and there was noisy outside.
It was not him who received many guests, but the third brother.
Even Fu San, these people are flattered.
They know that the third brother not only represents Chu Qing, but often when Chu Qing shakes his head, once the third brother nods, Chu Qing will also nod.
In the back garden, Dad was drunk.
All the old Qin family came, Qin Gang, his three sons Qin Zhao, Qin Qi, and Qin Lie. Qin Lie also brought his three sons Qin Xuan, Qin Wen, and the infant Qin You.
The baby in Chu Qing's arms was Qin You, neither crying nor fussing, looking at Chu Qing's chin with big eyes.
Chu Qing always felt that this little brat's eyes didn't look like a child's, they were evil.
The old Qin family was drinking with their father Chu Wensheng. It was unfair for a group of people to drink together. Then my mother went into battle, stepping on the stone bench to catch the thief first and capture the king first. Qin Gang knew it directly. He slapped the wine glass and the next one, The third son of the Qin family was trembling.
They have seen people drinking from wine jars.
But drinking from a wine glass, one glass at a time, one glass at a time, another glass at a time, this was the first time they had seen it.
The most important thing is that when the eldest princess drinks, she doesn't touch the wine glass with her lips, but shakes her hands, just like throwing peanuts into her mouth. Who can stand one glass per second?
The Supreme Emperor came, bringing Chang Yu and Chang Xian with him. When Lao Chang saw his sister challenging the entire Qin family, he immediately became unhappy and joined the battle, helping the Qin family to drink the eldest princess.
Tao Ruolin, Qingyang, and Liu Jinxi are fighting against the landlord.
The three of them are not nervous, Cao Hu is nervous.
He bet on Tao Ruolin to win, but now his pants are all tied up.
Qiu Baoyu, the big licking dog, may be the final winner, and he bets on Qingyang.
Qiu Baoyu's ruthlessness is here, and he is willing to fight against others. He believes that a miracle will happen sooner or later.
Chu Qing carried Qin You to the back garden, scolded her, and went back to idle.
Only two people came, Cao Hu and Qiu Baoyu.
The other friends have all gone to the palace for the banquet. The honor of the palace banquet must be given to the fourth child.
Chang Yu and Chang Xian came to Chu Qing, called Master Chu, and then continued to let Master Chu pestle the corpse.
The infant Qin You cried loudly, and the servants quickly took the child and went to find the wet nurse.
The spirit wolf jumped onto Chu Qing's knees, and then let Chu Qing throw him far away with the back of his fate neck.
Like Qiu Baoyu, Ling Lang treats you like his first love, and ran over again and lay down at Chu Qing's feet.
Until early in the morning, the fourth child came late. He had just finished dealing with the ministers, so he didn't drink much, so he left his stomach to challenge the emperor.
When he saw Chu Qing handing out New Year's money to Chang Xian and Chang Yu, his eyes widened and he saw one hundred thousand silver notes.
Huang Laosi, with red eyes, looked at Chu Wensheng, embarrassed, and then looked at the eldest princess in a disgraceful manner.
"Aunt, I am a junior, you see..."
"There is a map in the bedroom. You can pick a country at will. Pick the red one. It has a large population, at least 100,000 households."
Huang Laosi's eyes became even redder, and when he turned around, he saw a big dick on the back of Chang Yu's head.
The prince was confused and didn't know why he was beaten.
Only Sun An knew that the reason Huang Laosi was angry was because Chang Yu was not ready yet, so Laosi could not leave and go to distant overseas lands to conquer such a huge territory like the eldest princess.
Huang Laosi, who was originally thinking of having a drink, came to the main hall. When he saw Chu Qing looking like he was in a state of confusion, he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. After a silent sigh, he drank the wine.
There was no way to leave, he couldn't leave, and Chu Qing couldn't leave.
It's not that Chang Yu isn't good enough, it's that Chang Chao is too "good".
The prince has long been prepared to become the emperor, and Huang Laosi also taught him this way.
But at that time, the territory of the Chang Dynasty was not what it is now, with countless opportunities and countless hidden dangers.
Now Chang Chao has reached the most critical moment. There are countless possibilities for success, but there is only one possibility for failure, and that is inexperience.
Grassland, Ryukyu Island, the Three Kingdoms, including maritime affairs, these are things that Chang Yu has never been exposed to. Even the fourth child feels a little powerless, let alone Chang Yu.
This is why Lao Si arranged Chu Qing's small gang to various government offices. This group of people is the most understanding of the changes in the Chang Dynasty, and they also know best how to change it.
Fu San dealt with one wave of guests after another, and was not brought to the main hall until Qiu Wanshan arrived.
After pouring a cup of tea, he drank by himself. After a long time, Chu Qing realized that there was one more person. When he saw it was Mr. Qiu, a smile appeared on his face.
"Happy New Year."
Qiu Wanshan talks nonsense when he should, but when he shouldn't talk nonsense, he always gets straight to the point.
"If you are bored, how about Brother Yu accompany you on a journey? You can take Brother Yu to see the most beautiful scenery in this world."
Chu Qing was confused: "What do you mean?"
"You are not in the capital. Brother Yu needs to guard your family property for you. Now that your people have stayed in the capital and gone to the East China Sea, there is no need for me."
"I still don't get it."
"If you don't understand, then you don't understand. In short, the official career is no longer what I want. As for the Prime Minister, I can't be lazy, and Brother Yu doesn't want to. By the way, when I joined the Ministry of Household Affairs at the beginning of the year, I ran around all over the world and got into trouble. Many people are in rebellion, brother Yu..."
With a chuckle, Qiu Wanshan put down the worthless gift and left.
Those worthless gifts were not New Year's gifts for Chu Qing. What he said was the real gift.
Chu Qing's expression changed again and again. After Qiu Wanshan left, he shouted: "Second Tong, Second Tong, come in quickly."
Wang Tongtong, who was helping Fu San welcome guests at the door, ran in.
Chu Qing asked excitedly: "Mr. Qiu, has he fought in a war before?"
"No."
"Then he said that when he first became an official, he encountered many civilian riots and riots and so on?"
"Oh, the thing you are asking about does exist. It happened many years ago. Civil servants have fought through chaos and been in battle, more than once. Those who were able to wield knives were just not of high rank at that time and had no merit. Let others take it away."
"I'll go." Chu Qing was really shocked: "This is a hexagonal warrior, capable of both civil and military skills."
After returning to Beijing, Chu Qing finally smiled.
Mr. Qiu’s gift is worth thousands of gold.
No matter what you go through in life, the most difficult thing is not the difficulty, but the loneliness.
Qiu Wanshan's gift is to let Chu Qing know that he will not be alone. Even if he leaves the capital, there will be someone besides Fu San who will accompany him. He, Qiu Wanshan, is willing to accompany him to the ends of the world.
