Chapter 819 Dirty Child
"Sister, why don't you take your daughter with you when you are going to the summer palace this time?"
Jia's sister Xiao Jia, who was riding in the same car, asked.
Upon hearing this, Jia looked at Xiao Jia's young and beautiful face, "Every foreign wife can only bring one family. If you take Yan'er, you can't take you. My mother asked me to take you to the summer palace to show off, especially in front of the queen."
Xiao Jia is a showgirl who is going to participate in the election, and she has already handed over her name. With her being the real sister of the first-class general's wife and her beautiful appearance, she will definitely be selected.
Although Xiao Jia is not very proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, he also knows it. Besides, in the harem, it is better not to be too good at talented, as it is easy to be excluded, and the mean will be better to survive. Also, Your Majesty should not like talented people. For example, the Empress should be a talentless person. No one has ever shown his face in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he must not be able to show off his skills, but Your Majesty is very fond of. And in the harem, those concubines with extraordinary talents are not allowed to like His Majesty.
"Thank you sister." Xiao Jia understood his mother's painstaking efforts and had full expectations for the draft in his eyes. "I will definitely try my best to win the election."
Jia looked out the car window again and found that Yue Ling was riding a horse, and there were more than a little boy.
The little boy was wearing bright yellow short-sleeved clothes and bright yellow slippers. This color alone already showed his identity - His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
Suddenly she regretted it a little, and she might really have brought Yan'er over.
It was seven years old and there was still a year away. It was the time when her daughter could play with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"You must be successful." Jia said to the little Jia.
Xiao Jia nodded, "No problem sister."
Yue Ling held the reins of the horse to Yuan Er, and his eyes were full of love.
Ye Qingyan lazily lifted the curtain of the car window and said to Yue Ling: "General Yue Da helps to look at this monkey, I will rest."
"Yes, Queen." Yue Ling said respectfully, without any criticism in his attitude.
Ye Qingyan looked at his respectful look and wanted to say something, but finally curled his lips and smiled, "Thank you more hard, General."
"It's all what subordinates should do." Yue Ling's tall body protected Yuan Er, without any danger.
Ye Qingyan glanced at his handsome side face before putting down the car chain, lay on the brocade mattress, relaxing and resting.
She heard Ye say that Yue Ling seemed to have some disagreement with his wife Jia. The reason was that Yue Ling favored a concubine, An, who was not like her surname, was a very restless person and often provoked Jia. However, Jia, relying on her children and being a regular house, never took the concubine into consideration. A few days ago, An, was pregnant with her child and went to trouble Jia, saying that Jia wanted to harm her child, gave her unclean food, and caused her to have diarrhea. As a result, Jia really agreed with her words and found someone to feed her the medicine for the pregnancy, and the child was really gone. After the child was gone, An, she cried and made a fuss about Jia, but the miscarriage was still too weak, and she bleeded heavily, and died.
When Yue Ling found out, he first scolded Jia, and then started a cold war with Jia. He didn't go to Jia's house very much, and now he doesn't want to go. Jia doesn't care, and even bought a concubine, which is more beautiful than the An family before, but Yue Ling didn't even look at it...
Alas! Every family has a difficult sutra to recite. Ye Qingyan fell asleep while thinking about it.
But she was woken up by Jinglin after not long after sleeping.
"Empress, something happened." Jinglin said to Ye Qingyan.
Ye Qingyan looked confused, "What happened?"
Jinglin replied, "There is a child who stopped the palace convoy and said he was hungry and wanted to eat. But after giving him some food, he fell in love with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and insisted on playing with His Royal Highness. If he didn't play with him, he would cry and make a fuss."
"Want to play with Yuan Er?" Ye Qingyan was surprised, "What about Yuan Er? Should he play with others?"
"Your Highness dislikes him for being young and doesn't play with him."
"Does that child have family follow?" Ye Qingyan asked, completely losing his sleepiness, "I will go out and take a look."
"Just outside, the entire summer car team has been suspended now."
Except for the carriage, Ye Qingyan saw a dirty child covered in mud, following Yuan Er like a little follower, wanting Yuan Er to play with him.
But Yuan Er kept hiding from him, "Go away-"
Ye Qingyan: “…Yuan Er!”
When Yuan Er saw Ye Qingyan coming out, he hurriedly ran towards her, "Mother, he always pestered me."
"He wants to play with you, don't you want to play with him?"
"I don't want to." Yuan Er replied.
Ye Qingyan touched his head, "Don't you really like playing with children?"
"He's too...small." Yuan Er opened his mouth and thought that he was too dirty, but he felt that it was not good to say so, so he changed it to him being too young. In fact, age is also a problem. He doesn't want to play with a child who is three or four years old.
Ye Qingyan said: "Since you don't want to play with him, you can get on the carriage first."
Yuan Er obediently ran out to the carriage, and turned around while running, making a face at the dirty child.
The child immediately had to go on the carriage with Yuan Er.
Ye Qingyan stopped him and asked, "What's your name? Where is your family?"
The child looked at her and finally looked at the carriage, "I tell you, did you let me play with my brother?"
The child's voice was very delicate, his eyes were dark and bright, his hair was messy, with grass leaves mixed in between, his clothes were torn, and his feet were not covered with shoes.
"Yes, just tell me." Ye Qingyan looked at his eyes, squatted down and looked straight with the child.
The child replied, "My name is Junjun. I have no father and no mother anymore. I am a beggar and beg for food everywhere."
Ye Qingyan was surprised and looked at Yue Ling beside him.
Yue Ling replied: "The nearest village near this official road is five miles away. And people have been sent to check the surrounding area. There are no villagers within two miles."
"Then keep walking in the village to see if someone lost the child." Ye Qingyan looked at Junjun again in a blink of an eye and said to Yue Ling: "Let's wash him first, it's too dirty. Yuan Er is a bit obsessed with cleanliness."
She knew her child best, and Yuan Er didn't dislike the child for being too dirty, but for being too dirty.
"Yes, Empress." Yue Lingren master picked up Junjun, as if he had caught a little stray dog, and walked towards the logistics carriage behind the convoy.
Junjun seemed to understand that because he was too dirty, his brother didn't play with him, so he didn't resist.
Ye Qingyan asked the summer escape convoy to continue walking forward.
