If he could, he wouldn't want to go at all.

It's not that I'm worried about the depth of the water in the capital, but that the frontline soldiers are still desperately fighting the Rong people.

But the capital is planning a birthday for the Empress Dowager, and the whole country is celebrating?

The treasury's money is not used to prepare for war, but to hold birthdays. How many people's hearts will be upset by this?

"My lord, the King of Haijiang is here." Liu Qing appeared in the school grounds.

"Why is he here?" Li An looked at Liu Qing puzzled.

Before Liu Qing could answer, Li Xin's cheerful voice came: "Fuck, big brother!"

Li An was startled, and looked back at Li Xin speechlessly: "Why did you come to my place?"

Li Xin glanced at the soldiers who were practicing, then looked back at Li An with a smile: "Ninth brother, I'm here to find you, we two brothers are going to the capital together."

"I don't want to go." Li An directly expressed his thoughts.

"I knew Brother Jiu thought so." Li Xin smiled: "But Brother Jiu, we have to go, we have to go."

"Don't think about Father because of this matter, Father is also worried about the frontline war, but Father doesn't have to plan for Grandmother's birthday.

If the emperor did not hold a birthday for the emperor's grandmother because of the frontline war, the whole world would say that the father was unfilial!

In the same way, our two brothers can't bear the infamy of being unfilial!

It's time for us to go back and see the queen mother. "

Although Li An and Li Xin were born by a concubine of the old emperor, the concubine died of dystocia after giving birth to Li Xin. The two brothers were brought up by the queen.

The queen treated the two brothers as if they were her own children, and the two brothers also called the queen the queen mother.

Chapter 137 Empress Qi

After finishing speaking, Li Xin smiled again: "Ninth Brother, I have prepared the carriages and horses, and it's time to leave."

"Hey!" Li An sighed, and took Liu Yiyi's little hand: "Let's go, Yiyi, to the capital."

Li Xin looked at the hands held by the two and smiled meaningfully.

Liu Yiyi blushed and lowered her head.

"Brother Jiu, how about I prepare two carriages, one for you and Miss Liu?"

"Shouldn't it be like this?" Li An blinked and looked at Li Xin puzzled.

It's a long way to go to the capital, so he can't squeeze in a carriage with Li Xin, a bad old man every day, can he?

It must be squeezed into a carriage with Yiyi, a little fairy.

When going out this time, Li An brought Liu Yiyi, Liu Qing, Wang Hu and a thousand guards with him.

Li An in Qingshui County was handed over to Tian Qi.

Since he was going to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, it was impossible for Li An to go there empty-handed and bring some local products from Qingshui County.

Just like that, the team left in a mighty way.

Running around along the way, I finally returned to the place where I started.

Li An and Li Xin were late arrivals. After they arrived in the capital, there were three days before the Queen Mother's birthday.

Li An's servants in the prince's mansion were still the same group. Seeing Li An's return, the old housekeeper knelt down and saluted with tears in his eyes: "Your Highness, you are back."

"Hey, I can't call you Your Highness anymore, I should call you Prince Nine Brother." Li Xin reminded.

Hearing this, the old butler quickly changed his words: "I have seen the king of Nanjiang, the king of Haijiang!"

"Get up." Li An asked the servants and maids who were kneeling in the yard to get up and let them go about their own affairs.

After a long journey, Li An was a little tired and planned to rest.

He looked back at Li Xin: "Aren't you going back to your mansion?"

"Ninth brother, there is no one in my house, it's very lonely to live here, I'm staying with you, I'm going to the guest room, you and Miss Liu have a good rest." Li Xin grinned.

He walked towards the guest room with ease, without anyone leading the way.

In the past, he often came to Li An's house, and this place was just like his own home.

Li An glanced at Li Xin speechlessly, but didn't care, and took Liu Yiyi back to the room.

After not returning for several years, Li An's room is still furnished as it was at the beginning.

Looking at the soft and comfortable big bed, Li An smiled helplessly.

I remember that at the beginning, I was sleeping soundly on the bed, but the old emperor suddenly appeared in the room, and lifted himself up with his collar.

Before I figured out what happened, I was thrown into the carriage and rushed to southern Xinjiang overnight...

……

In the imperial study room, Princess Lanwei ran in with cheerful steps: "Father, Father, Brother Ninth and Brother Fifteen are back, I want to leave the palace."

"Why are you leaving the palace?"

"I'm going to play with Brother Jiu."

Hearing this, the old emperor gave Princess Lanwei a hard look: "You are not allowed to go!"

"Why, Father, I'm going."

"Look at what you have learned from Lao Jiu now? A dignified princess is like losing money. The salaries I gave to the ministers have all gone into your pockets, isn't it plausible? ?

What's the matter, the royal father rewards you less on weekdays, you are so short of money? "

"Father, didn't a lot of the money I earned from selling soap and opening a beauty salon go into your private treasury?" Princess Lanwei muttered in a low voice.

"You still dare to talk back?" The old emperor glared at Princess Lanwei.

Princess Lanwei pursed her lips: "If you don't go, you won't go."

After finishing speaking, Princess Lanwei left angrily.

The old emperor's face became even more speechless and helpless, and he couldn't figure out why he was so kind to his precious girl, why she was closer to Lao Jiu than to himself.

A little depressed in my heart, but also angry.

It hurts in vain!

……

Li An and Li Xin rested all morning and went to the palace to meet the queen in the afternoon.

In the Empress Palace, Empress Qi was lying weakly on the bed, her face was pale and sluggish.

Ever since the prince passed away, she has been missing her and her health has been declining.

"Empress, the king of Nanjiang and the king of Haijiang ask to see you." A maid said in a low voice, afraid that any movement would disturb the empress.

Hearing this, a gleam of light flashed in Empress Qi's dark eyes, she struggled to get up from the bed, her voice excited: "An'er and Xin'er are back?

Come on, let them in. "

Not long after, Empress Qi was dressed neatly and sat at the table, Li An and Li Xin entered the palace led by the young eunuch.

"I kowtow to the queen mother." Li An and Li Xin bowed respectfully.

After seeing Li An and Li Xin, Empress Qi's eyes turned red instantly, and a tear rolled down uncontrollably.

"An'er, Xin'er, please get up quickly." As she spoke, she planned to get up and help the two brothers.

But the sudden dizziness made her sit back heavily.

"Mother!" Li Xin called out anxiously, and rushed to support Empress Qi.

Seeing the anxious expression in the brother's eyes, Empress Qi waved her hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, Queen Mother."

Seeing Empress Qi's weak face, Li Xin shed a tear uncontrollably, and said distressedly: "Mother, you have lost weight."

"The queen mother is fine." Empress Qi put a loving smile on her face, put her hand on Li Xin's head, and then looked at Li An again.

"An'er, you've grown taller again."

Seeing Empress Qi like this, Li An's heart was also sour.

He traveled back and didn't have much contact with Empress Qi. It may be the instinct of this body that he felt sad at the moment. It can be seen from this that the empress was kind to Li An and Li Xin when she was young.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to see Empress Qi like this and feel so distressed that she wanted to cry.

Thousands of words, only one sentence: "Mother, we are back."

"An'er, Xin'er, I heard that you all left the capital and became vassals."

Li An and Li Xin nodded, "I'm sorry, Empress, I can't be by your side all the time."

Empress Qi smiled and shook her head: "It's good to go out, it's good to go out. Don't come back if you have nothing to do in the future. The queen mother will be satisfied when she sees that you are safe and sound."

"The two of you are both old and young. After you get married, the queen mother will have nothing to commemorate."

Empress Qi's words seemed to be telling her last words.

Li Xin wiped the corners of his eyes and forced a smile: "What are you talking about, my queen? Your illness will be cured. I brought a famous doctor from Haijiang. He will definitely cure your illness."

Empress Qi patted the back of Li Xin's hand, "You two brothers must be well, don't follow in the footsteps of your elder brother."

The elder brother that Empress Qi spoke of was precisely His Royal Highness the crown prince who had passed away. If the crown prince had not died young, he would be the next monarch of Dahua, and Li Xin would never have any thoughts.

The three of them are brothers, although they are not the same mother, but they are also brothers who grew up together since childhood!

"You haven't met your father yet, go and meet him."

Empress Qi said softly.

"Mother, let's go later. My son wants to spend more time with mother." Li Xin said coquettishly.

"No." Empress Qi's voice came.

……

Royal study.

The old emperor was sitting in front of the chessboard and playing chess with himself. Li An and Li Xin saluted him respectfully: "I have seen my father."

"I'm back." The old emperor didn't even look at the brothers.

"Old Ninth..." The old emperor called Li An, and then shook his head: "Your account will be settled later, let's talk about Old Fifteen first."

As he said that, the old emperor looked at Li Xin with a displeased face: "When you left the palace, what did I tell you?"

"Father, let me follow Brother Ninth to watch and study hard." Li Xin blinked her eyes with a cute expression on her face.

Chapter 138 I'm Sneaking First

The old emperor immediately drooped his face: "Is that what I told you?"

"That's right, that's what you said, Royal Father, I remember it clearly."

The old emperor frowned. Li Xin's serious appearance made him wonder if he really said that.

"Did you drink before you left the palace?" The old emperor was speechless.

"No." Li Xin turned his head to one side with guilt.

"Tell you to drink less and drink less on weekdays. If drinking is a mistake, you just don't listen." The old emperor was completely speechless.

Isn't this pure wine Mengzi?

"Hey~" Li Xin smiled honestly, and continued to play dumb and cute.

"Don't be silly, do you know how many memorials I receive from you every day when I am in the court? Can't you let me save my worry?" the old emperor complained.

"Father, who joined the minister?" Li Xin widened his eyes, looking angry.

"Why, you still plan to clean up all the ministers who attended you?" The old emperor glared at Li Xin.

"Father, you found out." Li Xin smiled honestly, and immediately clenched his fists: "Brother Jiu said that fists are the only criterion for testing the truth!

Father, anyway, there must not be as many people participating in Erchen as in Brother Jiu. "

What a trick to bring disaster to the east!

Hearing this, the corner of Li An's mouth twitched fiercely, and he looked at Li Xin in disbelief, this old Liuyin himself!
