Fast Time Traveling Fairy in Power

Chapter 241 Fanwai (1)

In the 23rd year of Qinghe, a new emperor came to the throne. The new emperor was named Yuanhuai. Because he was the seventh among the brothers, this year was also called the year of Qishi.

Great victory outside the pass, General Han defeated the Xiongnu and took back the seven cities of our dynasty.

In the same year, the new emperor made a private visit to the south of the Yangtze River to observe the people's sentiments.

The bluestone alleys, the awning boats, and every detail of the Jiangnan water town make people feel peaceful.

Far away from Shangjing and the imperial court, he unexpectedly relaxed.

This kind of emotion was never experienced by Yuan Huai. He enjoyed this moment of peace, but he didn't dare to let go of it.

He passed under the bridge in a boat. The boatman was a talkative and enthusiastic old man, singing a unique ditty from the south of the Yangtze River.

Everything made Yuan Huai feel fresh.

The governor of Jiangnan who followed him wiped the sweat from his brow.

I'm afraid that the old man didn't pay attention for a while, and the new emperor will be upset again.

"Old man, have you ever heard of a family named Xiang by the West Pool?"

Yuan Huai asked seemingly casually, which made the governor of Jiangnan feel his heart in his throat.

This is because the new emperor is still thinking about the Xiang family. After all, the former Prime Minister Xiang and the current Xiang Shoufu both came from the Xiang family.

It's just... some people, seeing them may not be a good thing.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what happened to the Xiang family.

"I've been rowing here for decades, but I've never heard of the Xiang family... It's just that there are a Si family and a Ye family by the west pool. The Ye family is a native of Jiangnan, and the Si family moved a few years ago. Those who came here are said to be relatives of the Ye family..."

The old man who rowed the boat said, with some doubts in his eyes.

"I don't think the young master is from Jiangnan, but you are here as a friend?"

Yuan Huai smiled: "Come to Jiangnan to meet old friends..."

The Ye family is the natal family of Prime Minister Xiang's wife, and Xiang Shoufu's uncle is named Ye. It's basically the right place to find it.

It's just that this Si's family...presumably is Miss Xiang's husband's family.

Yuan Huai couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was in his heart. Back then, he swore to tell him that there were two lovers because of love.

Now one is separated from the other and the other has come to Jiangnan. I just don’t know if this life is going well.

In order to consolidate the imperial court, he has added some newcomers to his harem. He is aware of the power that every woman brings to him, and he is perfectly disguised in front of them.

The forces in the court have reached a balance, and the same is true in the harem, but I always feel that something is missing.

The women in the harem always had calculations in their eyes, and their actions were too utilitarian. They flattered him and flattered him in every possible way, which made him feel bored.

After getting off the boat, there were several bluestone alleys covered with moss. The new emperor stood at the entrance of the alleys, not knowing what he was thinking.

The Governor of Jiangnan looked at the new emperor's expression and winked at an attendant behind him. The attendant hurriedly took a detour and ran to Ye's house.

At the entrance of the alley, a few children ran out of the alley with candied haws in their hands. When they saw the people at the entrance of the alley, the smiles on their faces suddenly stopped, as if they were very embarrassed.

Yuan Huai turned his body sideways to make way for them, and they were able to go out.

A few children ran away without a trace before Yuan Huai walked into the alley.

A short child in front, holding an umbrella with difficulty, walked towards the entrance of the alley.

The alley was small to begin with, so it became a little crowded when he held an umbrella.

The little boy raised his head and looked at the people blocking the road. He moved his body, revealing a face and a smaller girl on his back.

No wonder he walked with some difficulty.

The appearance of this little boy is extremely delicate, with a pair of clear and charming almond eyes, but there is a calmness that does not belong to his age.

Those eyes made Yuan Huai feel a little familiar.

The little boy's eyes turned around Yuan Huai, and looked at the Governor of Jiangnan behind him.

"Uncle Li, my uncle always talks about you. Last time you played chess, you lost a pawn..."

Governor Jiangnan's complexion softened a little, and he sighed helplessly.

"If you hadn't helped your uncle, how could I have lost?"

"It's just that my skills are not as good as others. Grandma said, you have to face yourself..."

The little boy spoke clearly, which aroused Yuan Huai's interest.

It is really rare that a child can beat the governor of Jiangnan in chess.

After all, the governor of Jiangnan, who has played chess for decades, is so skilled in chess that he can still lose.

"Which family are you from?"

Yuan Huai slightly lowered his head to look at the little boy, but the little boy's expression turned vigilant.

He took a step back and turned to look at the little girl on his back.

"Today is not suitable for going to the theater. Uncle Chu said that it will rain today. I will bring my sister out tomorrow..."

He said and nodded to Yuan Huai.

He turned around and walked deeper into the alley.

At the end of the alley is the site of the Ye family. Next to the Ye family, there is a slightly smaller house with the word "Sifu" hanging on it.

Presumably this little boy should be a child of one of the families.

The little boy couldn't walk fast at all, and there was another one on his back, so it was naturally difficult for him to walk.

Yuan Huai deliberately kept a distance from the little boy, but he could only move a dozen steps.

After the little boy came out of the alley, he handed the little girl to a woman waiting at the gate of Ye Mansion, and he carefully glanced at Yuan Huai and others at the entrance of the alley.

I don't know what the little boy said to the woman, and the woman also looked at them.

He walked towards Sifu, and looked back at them from time to time.

A horse's neighing sound came from a distance, and the little boy suddenly turned around and looked over, with surprise on his face.

"Auntie—"

He yelled, and without waiting for the horse to come over, he trotted towards the horse.

Si Shi grabbed the horse and carried Xiang Shaoyao off the horse.

Even though they have been married for so many years, she will still be shy in front of him. The longer they are together, the deeper the love.

Can't wait to be together all the time.

This time I went to Jiangzuo to see flowers, and it took me half a month to go. The two of us had a good time, but the poor child hadn't seen the peony for half a month.

Xiang Shaoyao held the little boy in her arms and stroked his hair.

"When grandma was away, did Xiao Siru listen to my uncle and grandpa?"

Si Ru nodded obediently: "Ah Ru is very good. My uncle is terrible at chess, and Ah Ru even helped him win..."

Xiang Shaoyao smiled softly, and grabbed Si Ru's hand.

Feeling Si Shi hugging Xiang Shaoyao's waist, she turned her head and looked at him, her eyes full of sweetness.

Just like a young girl in love, the years have never left any marks on her face, but instead made her more and more attractive.

Si Shi glanced at her lovingly, and when the two people's eyes intertwined, the air seemed to be much sweeter.

"The Seventh Prince is here..."

After he said something calmly, Xiang Shaoyao followed his gaze and looked towards the entrance of the alley.

"It should be said that it is the emperor..."

Xiang Shaoyao sighed as she spoke, and when she saw the Seventh Prince, she thought of Brother Xiang and Han Xianxian again.

I don't know when Han Xianxian will come back...

Xiang Shaoyao let go of Si Ru's hand and walked towards the alley.

Yuan Huai looked at Xiang Shaoyao walking over, feeling a little complicated for a moment.
