Foster son and husband

Chapter 281 Picking Flowers
Xu Junying left Beijing again in early October and came back more than ten days later, just in time for the autumn hunting initiated by King Qi. The princes and nobles of the capital responded one after another and signed up to join. Under the temptation, he announced that the emperor would go with him. The king of Qi asked Lin Runan to inform Meimei. Of course, Meimei wanted to go very much, but she was afraid that Xu Junying would not see her when she returned home. As if he didn't care about his dusty face, Xu Junying rushed forward and hugged him for a while. Joyful and guilty, Xu Junying gently stroked her excitedly flushed face with apology, and said:
"Meimei... I have wronged you!"

"Well, I'm very wronged!" Meimei snuggled into his arms, pinched his cheeks with both hands, and said with a smile: "But my husband is going to go home after all, how happy I am at this time, no one can understand My happiness and joy at the moment!"

With warm eyes, Xu Junying pressed her tightly into her arms, took a deep breath and said, "I, Xu Junying, will not waste my life if I have a wife like that!"

The couple whispered at night, and Meimei found out that it was the emperor who estimated that he should be on the way back, so he asked Ji Qing to find Bai Zhan, and asked him to send a carrier pigeon, telling him that the emperor would go hunting for three days recently, and let him Taking the time to return to Beijing, Xu Junying thought that Meimei had been looking forward to this opportunity for a long time, and that he must guard her side this time, so he hurried back day and night, rushing back with the speed of the march, and shortened the trip by three days.

The next day, a large group of people surrounded Huangjia and went out of the city to the Eight Immortals Mountain two hundred miles away. It was heard that there were black bears there.Xu Junying was afraid that Meimei would be exhausted, so she didn't let her ride a horse, so she helped her into the carriage, followed Cheng'er to serve her, and said to Meimei: "Xiaobai is brought here for you, this road is bumpy, and there are still mountain roads to go." Let’s go, it’s a half-day journey, it’s better to take a car, and I’ll ride a horse with you tomorrow!”

Meimei obeyed his arrangement, lay on the comfortable cushion, swayed for a while and fell into a deep sleep. Last night, she was lingering for half the night, and she really couldn't bear to ride a horse.

At the campsite, Mei Meifu got out of the car and immediately fell in love with this small valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. On the left side, there was a clear stream flowing. It was early winter, and there were still unknown bright flowers blooming in the valley. Looking up, the mountains and ridges are full of green and fiery red, which is magnificent. The beauty of nature can fascinate people at any time and any time.

Xu Junying showed a rare romance, and took out a bunch of light blue blooming wild chrysanthemums from the cloak and handed them to her: "Other flowers are not fragrant, but the fragrance of wild chrysanthemums is fresh and elegant, refreshing, and I think you like this color too! "

Meimei looked around and asked in disbelief, "Are you picking flowers in front of your subordinates?"

Xu Junying smiled: "No, I saw chrysanthemums blooming all over the mountains and plains on the road, so I left the team on horseback and went to another valley, where I picked them."

Meimei held the bouquet, put it to her nose and took a deep breath: "It smells really good, thank you husband!"

"Well, go see where we live."

Xu Junying took her hand, and was used to her polite words from time to time, even Heng'er would say thank you every now and then, wouldn't he be exhausted if he kept fighting with the mother and son.

Meimei followed him and said to herself, "We'll go pick some more later and put them in the tent. It's beautiful and fragrant, and it can also drive away evil spirits!"

"Okay, leave it to my husband..."

"No, let's go together this time!"

The two went into the tent to tidy up a bit, then took Chenger, Baoju, Baizhan and two other guards to a place at the foot of the mountain where the wild chrysanthemums bloomed the most. They were very happy while picking flowers. They didn’t come back until dusk, and the guards walked in front with a large armful of wild chrysanthemums. Meimei and Cheng’er enjoyed it the most. After playing enough, they wove chrysanthemums into straw hats, and each of them wore one, happily following along. Behind, the autumn wind was blowing gently all the way, covered with the fragrance of flowers, Meimei said intoxicatedly:

"Cheng'er, I did a flower picker today, it was so much fun haha!"

Cheng'er asked naively: "Young madam, who is the flower picker? Is he amazing?"

Meimei was embarrassed, Baoju couldn't help laughing, Bai Zhan said, "Idiot! How can he be a good person if he is a big thief?"

Cheng'er argued: "But the young lady said, it's a lot of fun to be a flower picker, so it's not bad!"

Speechless in all battles, Xu Jun smiled coyly, reached out and patted the back of Meimei's head: "Look at what you taught the little girl!"

Meimei had no choice but to cheer up and talk to Cheng'er about the truth: "Cheng'er, this big thief usually refers to bad guys, but thieves also have ways, and there are also chivalrous ways among them. Say!"

Bai Zhan was sweating, and continued helplessly: "This flower-picking thief, if you only pick flowers on the roadside like Chenger, you are a good thief, and there is nothing wrong! If you specialize in flying eaves and walls, entering houses at night to rob people Yes, it's the bandits, who captured the five horses and divided them into pieces!"

Cheng'er clicked his tongue: "It's scary!"

"You know it's scary?"

"Well, five horses torn corpses!"

"you!"

Feeling defeated in a hundred battles, this little girl has such a brain, she can't understand what she should understand, it's too difficult to teach!
A group of people walked back to the camp with joyful smiles, and met Qi Wang and Lin Runan head-on. Qi Wang glanced at Xu Junying and Meimei who were smiling, and Lin Runan said dissatisfiedly:

"Where did you go? Why didn't you call me!"

Meimei hurriedly said apologetically: "Didn't you say that everyone should tidy up the tent? Let's take advantage of this gap to pick some chrysanthemums and lay them in the tent to add some fragrance. I'm afraid you won't be free, so I didn't dare to call... Well, this wild chrysanthemum is very fragrant, and I am going to send you two hugs, do you want to?"

Lin Runan turned from anger to joy: "Okay, I want it!"

"This princess wants too!"

"I want it too!"

At the place where the lights were shining, Princess Su De walked over with a smile in men's attire. Beside her was Fang Xuemei, who was recently favored by the emperor and became a Concubine Shu by the third rank.

Meimei secretly said that it was unlucky to meet these two, and after taking a look at Lin Runan, she didn't know why these people gathered here. The co-author knew she was going to pick chrysanthemums, and they were all guarding here waiting to be robbed.

"Marquis Weiyuan and Madam are reluctant?" Su De glanced at Xu Junying and asked leisurely with a smile.

Meimei didn't want Xu Junying to make a sound, so it was just a few flowers and plants, so she replied: "Where, but the princess and the concubine Shu like it, there are two bunches left, the princess and the empress just happen to have one bunch each! "

Su De smiled: "Thank you very much! I was thinking that the tent smells like earth, and the incense doesn't help. The scent of wild chrysanthemums in the country is the best to drive away the smell!"

Concubine Shu didn't even bother to say thank you, she pointed to the two guards and said, "There is no room for bad smells in the imperial tent, I want two bunches!"

Before Meimei could speak, Lin Runan said: "Go ahead, send the flowers to the imperial tent first!"

The two women left, Meimei sighed and said, "I've been busy for nothing, there's only one bunch left, take it."

Lin Runan said: "It's fine to divide it in half."

King Qi, who had been silent all the time, said: "What are you fighting for? Let the guards light up the torches and go pick them!"

Xu Junying looked at Meimei: "When you are hungry and tired, go back to eat and rest, let Baoju and the others pick."

Meimei was right after thinking about it, so she smiled and said to Lin Runan: "It's quite far away, let the guards go. I brought good wine and food from Cyclamen, let's go drink!"

Xu Junying bowed his hands to King Qi: "His Royal Highness, please, call Shanghuai King and Changle to wait for them. I hurried back to Beijing. I don't know the hunting matters you agreed on. Let's drink and I can understand more clearly!"

Baoju took people to pick flowers, Meimei and Lin Runan discussed it, and asked Shan Yong to bring a number of palace guards to quickly clean up the flat ground in front of the tent, spread lichens, place low tables, and burn a lot of fire around. With the torch, a simple and bright restaurant is made.

Knowing that there are good wine and good food, more and more people come here after hearing the news. Fortunately, Meimei has prepared early and brought enough dishes, and the camp chef also sent the meals made by the camp chef Coming over, Xu Junying asked Bai Zhan to ask Ji Qing if the emperor was interested in drinking together. After a while, he saw the emperor walking over with Concubine Shu, accompanied by Ji Qing and several attendants.

Meimei looked at Concubine Shu who was snuggling up to the emperor like a bird, and felt very uncomfortable. This provincial woman who came to Beijing with her father to report on her duties, became domineering and flamboyant after becoming a concubine. The more rude you are, if you don't take the queen seriously, you don't deserve the word "Shu". How can she be like herself?That day when Xu Junying came back and told the Emperor Meimei that she had got a new beauty with a temperament somewhat like her, Meimei expressed her disbelief, and later went to the palace to meet with the queen, and she refused to agree even more. He Dehe Neng, similar to Mrs. Ben!Beauty is nothing to worry about. Compared with the empress's elegance and concubine Rong's charming beauty, Concubine Shu is a bit more charming and soft. She entered the palace with Su De to meet the emperor, and after a night of favor, she became a concubine , then Concubine Concubine, then Concubine Shu, but within two months, Concubine Rong who had just given birth to a prince was compared to Concubine Rong.The empress sadly said that besides her light dancing posture, it was her delicacy and savagery that impressed the emperor!The big name is Fang Xuemei, and the emperor affectionately calls her "Amei" on weekdays. She has been doting on her all the time, and she doesn't even go to the Palace of Le Pin, her favorite.

Fortunately, the queen is pregnant again, the emperor always remembers to visit the queen in Kunning Palace every few days and have a meal with her, otherwise, the queen's life will be so sad.

Meimei counted the concubines who are currently pregnant in the palace. Except for Concubine Zhen, Concubine Le, and Concubine Li, there are all others. After next year, the emperor will add eight or nine princes or princesses, plus the four who have already been born. , It's almost a row, so many children of different mothers call themselves daddy, don't know what it's like?
Meimei bit her lip and snickered for a while, and soon became worried again. She thought of the emperor's words that she wanted to marry Xu Junying!God, I hope that the emperor, intoxicated in the beauty's nest, has amnesia and never thinks about it again.

Few of the royal children are taught well, and she is not willing to let her children suffer that torture!
