Chapter 900: Chaos
After the convoy entered the city, Chu Cong sent several carts of things he brought from the Chu family in Yi'an City directly to the Chu residence.
Xia Zihan returned to Anjun Prince's Mansion.
Nuanyu and Vanilla were preparing for a banquet. They didn't invite anyone, so they just set up a few tables with their own families.
The two were very happy to see Xia Zihan. After finishing the banquet, they took Xia Zihan to Yuqiong Garden, where the masters and servants sat on the kang and chatted.
"Mother, mother, hold me, I want to hold you."
Seeing that his mother was only talking to Nuanyu and the others, Chu Yixuan and Chu Yijie, who were put on the kang to crawl and play by themselves, stopped doing it. The two buns crawled into her arms and made a fuss about being hugged by her.
Nuan Yu's eyes widened in surprise, "Princess, the young master is at home. Except for the county prince and the princess, no one is allowed to hug him. Even the wet nurse is not allowed to hug him. I didn't expect the princess to come back on the first day." Home, the young master is asking for your hug. It seems that the young master still remembers the princess.”
Vanilla looked incredulous, "When the princess left the capital, the two young masters were only a few months old. How could they remember that the two young masters must have felt that the princess was their biological mother, so they were so close to the princess? The blood relationship is wonderful. ”
The two little buns seemed to understand what they were saying. They glanced at the two of them with stern faces, and then snuggled into Xia Zihan's arms obediently. One of them held Xia Zihan with one arm and never let go.
Xia Zihan's heart melted with joy.
Before the master and servant could say enough, a little maid came to report, "Princess, Princess Qinghui is here. She has just entered the gate of Yuqiongyuan."
Hearing this, Xia Zihan moved to get off the kang.
Chu Qing cleverly stepped forward, put on her shoes, and said, "Princess, Princess Qinghui just entered the courtyard."
"We haven't seen each other for a year. I don't know how much the boys in her family have grown." Xia Zihan was anxious to see Princess Qinghui. After getting off the ground, he turned around, picked up two small buns, one in each hand, and led the A group of maids went out to greet Princess Qinghui.
Princess Qinghui walked quickly. As soon as Xia Zihan went out, she saw Princess Qinghui entering the inner courtyard.
"Chu Yu." Princess Qinghui ran a few steps quickly and wanted to give her a bear hug. Seeing a small bun sitting on her arms and staring at her with eager eyes, Princess Qinghui withdrew her hand. Staring at the two little buns, "You two boys are not young anymore, and your mother is thin and small. Holding you two, you want to tire your mother out."
When Chu Yixuan heard this, a hint of panic appeared in his clear little eyes. He turned to look at his mother. When he saw that her mother was out of breath and her face was not pale, he said crisply, "Mom, you are very strong."
"Mom, that's amazing." Chu Yijie also said.
"Bah, no matter how powerful she is, she is still a woman. One of you two can be held by your aunt." Without any explanation, he snatched Chu Yijie from Xia Zihan's hands.
She hugged him and gave him a rare kiss on his little face, "Hey, brat, my aunt finally got to hold you."
When Xia Zihan was not in Beijing, Mrs. Zhuo often took her twin grandsons to the Chu residence to accompany Mrs. Zeng. The two grandsons were particularly close to Mrs. Zeng. However, Princess Qinghui and Dalang often made them laugh, but these two Baozi doesn't like to smile and keeps a straight face all day long.
Especially when she saw Princess Qinghui's mother and son, their little faces were even more stern and cold, and they wouldn't let her hug them. As soon as Princess Qinghui touched them, they screamed and struggled desperately.
However, Chu Yijie was quiet today. He just stared at Xia Zihan with a pair of small, aggrieved and tearful eyes, which made Xia Zihan feel soft and wanted to hug him over.
Princess Qinghui turned her head away and entered the house, "It's rare to hold this brat for once. If he doesn't cry or make trouble, just let me hold him for a while."
Xia Zihan followed Princess Qinghui into the house and asked, "Qinghui, have you ever bullied my two boys while I was not at home?" Princess Qinghui laughed, and before Chu Yijie He kissed her tender little face.
When Chu Yijie saw that his mother didn't help him and was bullied by his aunt, he burst into tears. He curled his mouth and burst into tears.
I cried so much that the sky collapsed, the mountains collapsed and the tsunami hit.
Xia Zihan felt so distressed.
"If you don't cry, don't cry. Jie'er won't cry. When mother goes to Chu's house, she will also bully your cousin Erlang. Let's bully him back." Xia Zihan glared at Princess Qinghui, put down the boss, and left Qinghui. The princess held the second child in her arms, kissing and coaxing him.
When the second child was in her hand, he stopped crying. However, he seemed to be blaming his mother for not saving him before. There were still tears in his eyes, his lips curled up, and his face was full of grievances.
Xia Zihan's heart turned into water again.
After she and Princess Qinghui got on the kang, the two little buns nestled in her arms and refused to let go.
Princess Qinghui asked about Chu Yuexi and had no time to tease them.
"Brother is fine, but he was injured in the Miao territory before. It took him more than a month to recover..." Xia Zihan rambled on, telling Princess Qinghui one by one about Chu Yuexi's experience this year. .
When Princess Qinghui heard that Chu Yuexi had a high fever and almost died, she scolded the Miao people with tears in her eyes.
After feeling sorry for Chu Yuexi, Princess Qinghui wiped away her tears and talked about the drought in Jiangnan, "It hasn't rained in Jiangnan for three months. I heard from my father that the crops in many places in Jiangnan are... They are all done. The emperor is anxious to send messages to the south of the Yangtze River every day. Your Aqi is probably going to be busy right now. Brother Yuexi will definitely not be idle if he follows him. He will only give it to me in a month. A letter.”
There was a lot of dissatisfaction in his tone, but more of it was heartache.
"Brother Yuexi must have lost a lot of weight. He just left Wuzhi Peak and took on such a mission. We don't know when this drought will end. Last month, the emperor sent a group of imperial doctors to Jiangnan. I brought a large amount of medicinal materials. It seems that there was chaos in some places in Jiangnan and many people were injured.”
It was still a mess after all.
A few days ago, on her way here, she received a message from Aqi. Jiangnan was not in chaos yet. Unexpectedly, Jiangnan was already in chaos in just five or six days.
"What kind of chaos is this? Is it terrible?" Xia Zihan's heart tightened as he thought of the tragic scene in Jiangnan in his previous life.
"Also, where is the food? When does the emperor plan to transport the food?" Xia Zihan thought of the food he had accumulated for several years and sold it to the emperor for a large sum of money.
When she sold the grain, she sent a message to the Emperor Fei Ge to sell it. The Emperor had not yet given her the money, and the grain was still in her warehouse and had not been transported to Jiangnan.
Once Jiangnan is in chaos, the people will definitely not be able to survive, so food and water will become their life-saving pills.
"Fortunately, the chaos was not serious. I heard from my father that those mobs were controlled by your Aqi's troops in time, and they were taken to dig water channels and work as coolies. They and their families were given three meals a day, and they were also A tent was arranged for their family to stay in. ”
