One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 225
At the beginning of the Hai Dynasty, Yuan Zhao stood at the foot of the steps and looked up at the plaque on the gate of the mansion. There was no ups and downs in his heart, only a sense of melancholy from the bottom of his heart.

But the time is limited, so I can't stay in the mansion for too long.

Climbing up the stairs, the door of the mansion has been opened, and after stepping over the threshold, the first thing to see is Ji Wu and Feng Changshi who are already waiting in the outer courtyard, coming to greet them with great excitement.Except for the two of them, the rest of the military generals have followed the three sons, and the civil servants have gone to find their own way out.

It was she who let them go, saying that their father had passed away, and they had no future in the Duke's mansion.

For those who want to leave, she will give them a lot of money; for those who stay, they will have a day of leisure before the Duke's mansion is closed.

Therefore, Ji Wu and Feng Changshi stayed, and the two lived in the outer courtyard with the guards as usual to guard the gate.Feng Changshi is rich in knowledge and five cars, and he can still stay in the Duke's mansion as a guest of honor, and reunite with his son Mai Hu every day, killing two birds with one stone.

Ji Wu is doing sweeping work in the outer courtyard, or inspecting the defense work in the mansion.In my spare time, I talked freely with the Duke of the State and Feng Changshi about the current situation in ancient and modern times, without avoiding others.

As the status of the princess rises, and she is favored, the more the family members avoid suspicion, the more suspicious they become, and it is better to be upright.

To be disrespectful, life in the mansion is much more comfortable than when the old Duke was alive.Tonight, when I suddenly learned that the Princess is returning to the mansion, everyone was very happy, especially Uncle Ji and Feng Changshi, their beards were twitching with joy:

"Welcome the princess back home!"

"Get up," Yuan Zhao said without slowing down, and said as he walked, "When you are old, you should rest early, staying up late is not good for your health!"

"Thank you princess for your concern!" The two promised with a loud voice.

After the words fell, her figure had disappeared into the front yard.Hey, the young man is full of vigor, gold and iron horses are fighting for glory, and the princess has become more and more calm.The two looked at each other, and happily "please, please" returned to the chessboard and continued to fight with their pieces.

The Duke's Mansion is still in crisis, and there must be a reason for the Princess's sudden return to Beijing during the mourning period.She didn't say anything for her own reasons. Isn't her indifference to everyone an act of protection?
Those who understand will naturally understand, so there is no need to ask more questions; those who do not understand have been released, and they are happy and quiet.

As for those who were inserted by others, if there were no orders from the master behind them, everyone in the mansion would still be safe, so there is no need to deliberately pay attention to them.

Relatively speaking, the current life is not bad, anyway, they are satisfied.If any servant is found to make a small move, it is okay to let him have an accident.

Ji Wu is an expert, so he can't be troubled.

You Changgeng is still in Shanxi, Ji Wu is in the mansion, the family members who are away from the expedition feel at ease.

……

When Yuan Zhao entered the front yard, the second elder brother of the Grand Duke, the second sister-in-law Guan Shi, the third sister-in-law Yan Shi, and the seventh elder brother Shao Si Nong rushed forward to greet him.After a brief salute, the worrying second brother, as always, chased after her with a sad face and nagged:
"Why did you return to Beijing suddenly? What trouble did you cause? There is only one year left in the funeral, and you can't bear it? Ah? Tsk, when will you learn to think about your family..."

"Second brother, don't worry, I'm returning to Beijing according to the order." Yuan Zhao comforted, while telling Seventh brother, "Sister-in-law Seven is safe outside the city, but she can't return home for the time being."

Oh?Shao Sinong stopped in disappointment.

"According to the imperial edict?" The second brother also stopped, oh, it's all right, he turned his head to his wife Guan Shi and said happily to his wife, "Fortunately, I was scared to death!"

Guan Shi rolled his eyes: "..."

Yan covered his sleeves and snickered.

Although we all lived in the same mansion, the princess was in a hurry to return, the yard where Wu and Ba girls lived was a little far from the front yard, and the servants were still on their way to report.When they arrive, it is estimated that the princess has packed up and left.

But Mrs. Zhuo and Mrs. Lan are getting old, and the princess is in a hurry, so the Duke of the country doesn't need to disturb them.

As for the matter of taking concubines, everyone treats it calmly.The mourning period has not passed, let's talk about it then.

……

Back at Huatong Courtyard, hot water for washing and changing clothes has been prepared, including Luoyan, Wuxi and the others.Knowing that they failed to return, everyone withdrew and focused on the princess and Qinghe.

Lian Shang and Zhi Lan were gone, and they were replaced by Yin Zhu and Bi Huan, who were married and had children.

Ginkgo, who is in charge of the account, is also here, let's see if there is anything I can help.Her mother Coral, Aunt Hupo, and Aunt Tortoise had all stayed in the Huatong Courtyard to wait on them, directing the maidservants and servants to perform their duties in an orderly manner.

Although the meals and snacks tonight are vegetarian, they are still delicious, after all, Aunt Hu Po has always known her taste.

"How are the three aunts?" Yuan Zhao asked while eating.

"It's all good." Aunt Shanhu scooped up vegetarian soup for her, and reprimanded slightly, "Don't eat or sleep, just eat your food, we old guys will take care of ourselves."

Aunt Amber brought out the last dish, sat aside and smiled without saying a word.Aunt Tortoiseshell finished her sewing and went to prepare clothes for her.

So, it took less than an hour from returning home to leaving home, and during the process, I had a few chats with my fifth and eighth sisters.The fourth sister is far away in the Wu Mansion, and apart from caring about her mother's family, she doesn't hear anything outside the window, and immediately became a Buddha.

Of course, the last sentence is only Yuan Zhao's thoughts.In Wu Chu, people only know He Sheng, but don't hear the Buddha's voice.In short, I will visit my fourth sister and Erniang when I return to Beijing in the future.

Zhuo Ji and Lan Ji were finally awakened by such a big commotion in the mansion.Hastily dressed and came out to greet her, but only saw the back of the princess leaving in a hurry, as if yesterday.

Feeling hurt for a moment, the two ladies couldn't help but looked at each other and wept.

Look, Grandpa Guo is standing beside him with a helpless expression on his face, that's why he doesn't want to disturb the two elders.Although he is also very sad, and the feeling of yearning for his father and mother arises spontaneously, but as a man, he bleeds but does not shed tears.

It's a pity that I couldn't stop, so I had to keep raising my sleeves to wipe...

Chouzheng, Lord Shaoyang's personal soldiers went to camp in the south of the city one after another.Except for Jiang Tao, the general of the cavalry battalion, who was imprisoned, everyone else has arrived.Yuan Zhao also and Qu Guangping completed the handover of military affairs, and had some understanding of the city defense.

Sure enough, King Duan's biggest excuse for raising troops was that Emperor Fengyuan ordered her to take charge of the army, and the whole journey from Duanzhou to the capital was like a broken bamboo.No, or most of the city guards were dissatisfied with the fact that women were in charge of soldiers, and surrendered without a fight.

Unfortunately, the emperor was also very dissatisfied with these guards.

When the border was invaded by the enemy country, these guards all talked fiercely, but when they arrived at the front of the battle, they collapsed one by one, causing countless casualties. Since then, no guard has dared to volunteer.

If it hadn't been for years of wars, the imperial court has been in a predicament of having no generals available, and they would have been beaten to the end long ago.

Now when encountering internal turmoil, instead of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, delusional thinking that the emperor will endure it to the end, even if he is investigated in the future, he will not be held accountable!
As everyone knows, the emperor has a stubborn temper.

The generals are going to rebel against him, how can he hold back?He and Duan Wang are already in an endless situation.Isn't it against women holding soldiers?Now the woman is here to see who will win in the end.

"According to reliable news, Prince Duan's Mansion has trained a group of vicious Eagle Guards. Lord Shaoyang needs to be careful with it." Qu Guangping reminded after the handover.

"Don't worry, general, I have already prepared." Yuan Zhao said with a smile.

Oh?Qu Guangping raised his eyebrows, he really wanted to stay and take a look, but unfortunately His Majesty called him back... Thinking of this, his eyes fell on the woman behind her, and he couldn't help but look pleased.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't see it, he is honored to have his eldest daughter join the battle.
