It was just winter when I left. When I came back, the frozen soil outside the Phoenix Platform became softer, the grass roots turned green, and there was already a faint breath of spring.

There was a heavy rain in the second half of the night yesterday, and the road today was muddy. If it weren't for the Xiongcheng located on the southern foot of Yunling, Bai Jingyuan would never have let the team continue to move forward.

The convoy walked very slowly, with barefoot slaves on both sides holding hooks, stretching over to scrape off the mud stained on the wheels.

These sticky mud mixed with dead grass stems can easily get stuck in the axle. Once stuck, in order to avoid a car accident, the team has to stop. Although they walk slowly, they can still move forward normally, which is an ancient wisdom.

The slaves who specialize in serving the carriages and horses have been doing this for generations. They have very old experiences, but they have poor manpower and are tired of walking. Sometimes the wheels pass by small puddles and just come over to remove the mud, which will splash their faces all over.

The clean straw sandals were pinned on the waist, and they stepped into the mud barefoot with numbness, and the mud immediately emerged along the cracks of the toes. They were reluctant to waste their shoes on such a rotten road, even if the king repeatedly advised him not to barefoot when he was on the road.

Bai Jingyuan lifted up the curtain and took a look, then put it down.

I can't bear it, and I can't help it.

Going home early is a good thing for him or these poor people.

Whether he does not need slaves or lets all of these slaves live a comfortable life, it is impossible in a short period of time.

The purpose of this trip was not achieved, and Bai Jingyuan was in a low mood, just like the wheels that were constantly stuck to the soil.

Unfortunately, he did not have the same hardworking existence as these slaves in his heart, which could help him feel relaxed.

"Oh~"

Without good steel, even with skilled craftsmen, they cannot make high-quality springs. The shock absorption of the carriage is poor, so it is fine for short trips, but it is really a pain to travel far!

After being in the car for more than ten days, I had a sore waist and back pain, but looking at these poor slaves, Bai Jingyuan couldn't complain, so he could only sigh softly, as if this would make him feel a little more relaxed.

"King, it will be half an hour at most, so bear with it."

Lu'er lifted the curtain and took a look, and then estimated the time.

Bai Jingyuan looked at him and nodded slightly.

The two of them are together all day long, and they have finished talking about all topics, but now they are relatively speechless.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lu Er was not worried.

But perhaps the joy of returning home made him feel excited. He lifted the curtain of the car and pointed at the farmers working in the farmland in the distance: "King, look, these farmers are more hardworking than in previous years!"

According to previous experience, it will take at least half a month before these farms will start spring plowing. I didn’t expect that the spring plowing in Fenghuangtai will start so early this year.

Bai Jingyuan had seen it for a long time. He had already made up his mind. When he returned to the city, he would call Yang to come over and ask what the situation was. It was boring to gossip with Lu'er now, so he changed the topic: "After going back, don't talk too much about the princess's happy things."

Changing women in his previous life was like changing clothes, and he understood women's scrupulousness best.

Perhaps because he did not win a man in one fell swoop, Liu Sang's emotions fluctuated greatly after giving birth, so he didn't want to stimulate her.

Besides, he had only said a few words to the princess Xi. No matter how deep the friendship was, he could not talk about it. He just saw the shadow of the sister next door in her, thinking that it would be great if he had to marry a princess and marry a princess Xi...

Lu'er is one year older than him, and she married her wife the year before yesterday. Now she has two children. His wife is also a stingy man. She always suspects that he is hooking up with beautiful palace maids in the palace and has to make trouble from time to time. He knows this very well, and smiles and says, "I will save you the opportunity!"

He also hopes to be awarded a title by the king in the past two years!

With a son, you naturally have to plan for your son.

At least if his son inherits his title in the future, he doesn't have to rely on being a subordinate to the next king to leave enough foundation for his descendants.

The two of them were talking softly, and suddenly heard someone shouting on the side of the road: "Why don't a good man have no wife?"

The convoy was already very slow and it didn't take too long to stop. Bai Jingyuan was startled and was about to ask the driver what had happened, but he heard the sound of gongs and drums on the roadside, and the sound of Wu Zhu being trampled on the mud.

Now Bai Jingyuan is no longer the modern person who has just traveled through time. He is already very familiar with the various prayers of witches. As soon as these people open their mouths, he understands that they are actually washing away bad luck for him?

Isn’t it just that the marriage is not going well, and it’s just like that when you think about it, it’s not fate, and you can’t get it if you encounter something. It’s normal. After all, love is not the most powerful thing in this era. As long as the two have feelings, they dare to be together regardless of it.

The prayer is too difficult to say, and the general meaning is that our king is kind and wise, and he cannot marry a virtuous wife because he didn't choose the right person. He also said that he was almost caused by those unlucky women. It is a good thing to escape now. A lot of good women are waiting to be married to him. The fat boy has a lot of life, just like the katyds jumping around in the field, in groups...

Listening to this, Bai Jingyuan almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

The curtain of the car was hung up, and Bai Jingyuan sat in the car calmly, and could see the witch jumping on the wasteland beside the road at a glance.

They wore cloaks decorated with bright feathers and jumped against the cold wind. In the solemn and quaint music, everyone had a serious expression on their faces.

Behind them, there were Chinese people like the sea standing, and everyone's eyes were all turned to this side.

Such treatment was seen when I rode the white deer back to the city when I returned to the court in exile.

Bai Jingyuan couldn't figure out what was going on, so he had to watch calmly.

He was watching the crowd there, and he could see him even when the crowd was there.

Compared to the high spirits when he left, the king returned was extremely haggard, his face turned much darker and he lost a lot of weight. They would not think that this was blown by the sea breeze of the mountains of the mountains, they would only assume that this was the proof of the king's guilt!

After two queens died in a row, the king was in a bad mood! Even ordinary people would feel bad!

Bai Jingyuan silently watched the witches perform. After a long time, they finished the ceremony. They brought in a string of necklaces made of phoenix feathers through the car window, signaling him to hang them around his neck.

The red, blue, gold, and the small feathers of various colors are stringed into a string of silk threads and decorated with pearls and jade, which is very gorgeous.

Now the red-bellied pheasants in the palace are flooding. If it weren't for the other people in the palace trying to stop him, he would have killed a few to eat them! Now when he saw this string of feathers, he would have no fluctuations in his heart.

But everyone at the scene was excited to see him take the necklace and looked at him with anticipation.

The ancestors of Mi’s family and totem will protect you!

This information was read from their eyes. Although Bai Jingyuan did not believe this and felt that if the ancestors and gods of Mi clan really existed, he, a Xibei product, would not have lived until now. However, he still lowered his head solemnly and hung the bright feathers around his neck.

After a simple action, the people present seemed to let go of the big rock in their hearts, and the previous serious atmosphere immediately became cheerful.

While the convoy had not yet entered the city, a familiar Chinese came up to him, stood under the carriage, and comforted him with his neck tilted: "King, the people of Lu came to visit Prince Lu again a month ago. I heard from the merchants accompanying him that the princess of Lu is gentle and elegant, and he is in a good age, and he is very understanding!"

Others were not willing to fall behind: "Yes, the king! My family has relatives in Zheng State. They returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors on the winter festival. They said that the new king of Zheng State succeeded to the throne and there were princesses who could promise to marry! If the king wants to congratulate him, he could see if the princess of Zheng State is beautiful!"

Listening to these words like aunts and sisters, Bai Jingyuan understood that they could not promote his marriage with princesses from various countries. This was just based on enthusiasm, and he still felt warm in his heart.

Just when he was trying to say something, the topic fell apart: "The Queen Mother is so beautiful, so how can there be a niece in her family beauties? According to me, even if the king closes his eyes and marrys him, he doesn't have to worry!"

When cousins ​​get married, they are more kinship, and many people like to do this! Whether it is marrying their daughter to their aunt's house or marrying their daughter back to their parents' house, it is a very reassuring thing for the mother.

"That's not necessarily. You have met the Queen Mother and have never met the Queen of the New King of Zheng. What if she is not good at appearance, how could the daughter she gave birth to is a fairy?"

"Besides, do you need to consider whether you are beautiful or not by marrying the queen? It's not about being beautiful! I think the most important thing about the queen is virtuousness and virtue. The princess of Lu is the most suitable person for our king!"

Without him speaking, these people were clamoring for "Is the Princess of Zheng beautiful?" and "What kind of princess should the king marry?" and were squeezed away by others.

The newly squeezed people began to say all kinds of words to comfort him, as if the ladies in the world were as good as he could choose, and the next one would be smooth.

Bai Jingyuan felt that this feeling of being worried about by the whole city was a bit novel. In the past, he was worried about these people, their children's education, their harvest in the fields, and their spiritual and cultural life was not rich enough...

Until the convoy entered the city and his carriage entered the palace gate, these people who were welcoming slowly dispersed.

He was sick before and rushed to the far road. Bai Jingyuan sat down when he returned to Chaoyang Palace. He was so tired that he didn't want to move. However, he still wanted to do his best to do his superficial skills and decided to go to Yongshou Palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager first, then go to Changchun Palace to see his daughter, and then come back to rest.

As a result, before he could go out, he heard the report from the left-behind maid that Mrs. Liu was gone a month ago.

Bai Jingyuan was completely confused.

No wonder a large group of witches came far away from the city to pray for him.

He had thought before, wasn’t it just that the marriage was not going well? The two queens disappeared without passing through the door. It was not something he could decide. Is it necessary?

It turns out that there is still Mrs. Liu’s affairs inside.

Maybe, when he was away, the entire King of Chu and even the entire Chu State had his wife-resisted on him!

Look!

This person is so dangerous! Not only can't marry the queen, but he can't even live long after the married wife!

"What the hell is going on? Wasn't you doing well before?"

Before he left, Liu Sang was still very happy and held the child in his arms and took photos all day long!

Bai Jingyuan felt that his eyes were dark and ran to Changchun Palace without thinking.
Chapter completed!
