Chapter 83 One singing and one harmony, Jiuye's new homework
Xiao Bi didn't like hearing such words the most.
It doesn't matter if others say a few words, after all, not everyone understands her, let alone understands her.
But her brother-in-law clearly knew what her ambition was, and he knew that she would never give up no matter what, yet she still insisted on giving such useless lectures over and over again.
If she is willing to abide by the rules and be a well-managed housewife, why should she sacrifice the near and seek the distant, why not just marry Hua Qinghan?
Xiao Bi pursed her lips and said, "Brother-in-law and old Duke Huan have never met each other a few times. All they talk about together is state affairs and military affairs. How can you know his preferences?"
Maybe he likes a granddaughter-in-law like me, and he might teach me everything he has learned in his life when he is happy."
Emperor Tianqing laughed and scolded: "Look at this thick-skinned guy, I don't even know what to say!"
Xiao Heng smiled and said: "Your Majesty means well, but there is no need to be impatient. The day when Xiaojiu will get married is still far away. Everything can be taught slowly."
Xiao Bi looked at her with pitiful eyes.
Although her brother-in-law's preaching was a bit annoying, she got over it after fooling around for a few times.
But the big sister is different. Once she says that she wants to teach her, it means that extremely heavy homework is already waving at her.
Xiao Heng glanced sideways at her, scooped up the soup in the bowl with a small porcelain spoon, and drank it slowly.
Emperor Tianqing said: "Ah Heng is right, Xiaojiu is a smart child. As long as he is taught a good lesson, what can't he learn?
Learning to be a qualified matron will not be difficult in arranging troops, right?"
Xiao Heng echoed: "That's right, there are so many generals under my grandfather's command, who wouldn't praise Xiao Jiu for his good skill in the art of war?"
Xiao Bi really wanted to throw her chopsticks and leave immediately.
These two have really been a couple for more than ten years, and they have perfected their singing and harmonizing skills.
But I heard Emperor Tianqing say again: "I'm not joking with you anymore. It's your choice to get married. I can only make it happen."
But you can no longer be as willful as before.
The elders are all experienced people, and they are willing to give you guidance because they care about you.
The training of the Qilin Guards has begun to bear fruit, and I see that Cao Kun and Huan Ji are doing a good job, so I would like you and Huan Yu to step down from your positions as captains and let them take over."
"What?" Xiao Bi was unhappy: "You are removing me from my position in disguise!"
She was not unfamiliar with Captain Mo Qi, and the initial novelty had long since passed.
The problem is that without this position, she has one less excuse to leave the government.
Does she really want to be bored at home all day long and learn to take care of the housework, as her eldest sister said?
Those old ladies had the most tricks up their sleeves. If they accidentally tricked them into learning embroidery, would she still be alive?!
Emperor Tianqing patiently explained: "I am not dismissing you from your post. Think about it, once you and Huan Yu are engaged, it will be difficult to spend all day together before the wedding, right?"
Besides, don't you want to form a cavalry?
Take advantage of this period to get this done, and when you and Huan Yu get married, the cavalry can escort you all the way to Tianshui County.
You have always liked to be in the limelight since you were a child. Just think about the ostentation, tsk tsk tsk... Your eldest sister and I may not be so prosperous when traveling."
Xiao Bi chuckled twice in her heart.
Who likes to be pushy after being a child?
When you get married and bring three thousand cavalry with you, isn't it obvious that you are going to your husband's house to show off your power?
Even if Old Duke Huan didn't care, how could his soldiers not have any thoughts in mind.
She's not a big fool, and she tricked herself just to get the limelight.
But then again, the wedding is at least half a year away.
Now she has no shortage of money.
Although it is not enough to maintain the expenses of three thousand cavalry for several years, there is no problem at all in forming a team.
Just as he was thinking about it, young father-in-law bowed and walked in.
"This servant has met your majesty, empress, and princess."
Emperor Tianqing said: "Didn't I ask you to take someone to rearrange the study? Why did you follow me here again?"
Mr. Xiaonian said: "Back to Your Majesty, King Rong has something important to report to you."
"Oh?" Emperor Tianqing stood up and said, "Ah Heng, it's time for you to rest. I'll go to Lanyi Hall and have a look."
Then he said to Xiao Bi: "Your eldest sister has not recovered yet. Don't keep pestering her to talk. Let her rest early."
"I know." Xiao Bi responded and helped Xiao Heng stand up.
Emperor Tianqing waved his hand, indicating that they did not need to salute, and walked out of the side hall with Eunuch Xiaonian.
"Sister--" Xiao Bi pouted and looked at Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng smiled and said, "I'm a little tired. Please help me go back to the house and lie down."
Xiao Bi did not dare to say anything and helped her back to the main hall.
Xiao Heng leaned on the soft couch and pulled Xiao Bi to sit beside her.
"Prince Rong has been very busy lately, so he came to see His Majesty at this time. Maybe he has found out something about the fallen tree."
Xiao Bi said: "This matter was clearly done by the remnants of King Yong, but no concrete evidence could be found for a while."
Xiao Heng sighed: "Don't be impatient with this kind of thing. If you peel off the cocoon step by step, you can always find out the mastermind behind it.
Just like that Shi Cainv, do you really believe that she was the one who poisoned you?"
Xiao Bi pouted: "According to common sense, Tianmu Tears is a poison that has been lost for hundreds of years and should not appear in the hands of a little picker.
But the father of this Shi Cainv is Shi Juncheng from Hedong County, so I dare not draw conclusions easily.
The eldest sister, Shi Juncheng's son, has been in contact with businessmen from Liuyun Kingdom all year round, and has done a lot of business privately.
The Shi family committed trouble this time because he planned to use the weapons of the Wei Dynasty to exchange goods with Liuyun merchants.
According to Liang Ruoru's explanation, the leader of the Liuyun Kingdom and the person suspected of being King Yong are in collusion with each other, so it is possible that the Shi family obtained the Tears of Heavenly Eyes from the Liuyun merchants."
Liang Ruoru suspected that the disfigured man was King Yong himself. Xiao Bi only told Huan Yu and Xiao Heng, but not Emperor Tianqing.
This matter is too unbelievable and there are many doubts about it, so it is not appropriate to discuss it for the time being.
Besides, she had promised Liang Ruoru that if she told her brother-in-law about this matter, his and Pu Lan's lives might not be saved.
Xiao Heng said: "His Majesty suddenly called the Xin family back to Beijing at the beginning of the year, and I felt that there must be something fishy."
"Sister, do you suspect that this matter is also related to King Yong?" Xiao Bi frowned.
"The Xin family's affairs are too complicated, and His Majesty is unwilling to tell me the truth. We'd better wait and see what happens and be more careful."
As she said that, she took Xiao Bi's hand and said, "On weekdays, you just listen to what your brother-in-law says, but what he said today is quite reasonable. You can't turn a deaf ear to it.
Big sister, I don’t ask you to be a good wife and mother, but at least you have to look like a girl on the surface.
Ayu is a very good boy. Since you have decided to marry him, you cannot let others make fun of him."
Xiao Bi pouted and said: "Sister, you just met Brother Huan once, and your heart is now towards him?"
