marry a monk

Chapter 35

When King An Tu returned to the palace, it was already dark, and he didn't see Jiang Xia. After asking the servants, he found out that Jiang Xia had not waited for him for a long time, and went out of the mansion.Hehe, I don't know how to come back so late, did I forget the prince after seeing Pang Hong?Andu Liuqing smiled masochistically.

After sitting for a while, Jiang Xia still didn't see him, so he took out the dossier and looked at it seriously.The dossier is marked with the specific location and collection quantity, management personnel, entry and exit registration, etc. of military//equipment//depots in various parts of Chiwu Kingdom.

After looking around for a while, I didn't find anything. Looking out of the window, there was a tree on the moon, loosening my robe, half leaning on the couch, closing my eyes and resting.Suddenly remembered the bombing case that day, returned to the desk, and found that the army//armament//depot in Qinghe Town had not been included in this dossier.

In other words, there may still be many military//army//depots that are improperly managed and unregistered like Qinghe Town across the country.These military//army//libraries may be controlled by someone, or they may be guarded by the government. No matter what, the names of these military//army//libraries must be legitimately classified under the control of the emperor.He picked up the pen and added the word Qinghe on the dossier.

After finishing everything, he lay down on the table in a daze. After a while, he felt that someone was covering him with a quilt, and he tried to open his sleepy and hazy eyes. A figure with long hair and white underwear was swaying in front of his eyes.

"Jiang Xia, there are snakes over there, come here quickly." He babbled and pulled the person in front of him.

"What Jiang Xia? What is my raised son thinking about?" The figure in front of him muttered.

Andu Liuqing woke up immediately, and found that it was her mother, Antu Ruyue, who fell asleep at some point.

"Mother, why are you here?" He sat up.

"If the mother doesn't come, I still don't know what my son is thinking? I don't know how to cover myself when I sleep, and I don't know how to take care of myself when I grow up. It seems that I have to marry you as soon as possible."

"Mother, I'm not a child. I don't know if I'm cold or not? Don't just say I married a wife?" Andu Liuqing muttered.

"What's wrong with marrying a daughter-in-law? You should marry a daughter-in-law at your age. Don't you really want to spend your life with a man in your arms?" An Tu Ruyue yelled at her son angrily.

"Mother, what are you talking about?" Andu Liuqing's tone softened, his mother's words made his heart pound.

Could it be that I am really obsessed with Jiang Xia's thoughts to the point where my mother can also see it?No, this king usually teases him, and there is nothing wrong with it, he denied it to himself.

"Can't you understand what mother said? These days you and a man are in pairs, inseparable, even sleeping..." Antu Ruyue couldn't continue, paused and added: "Do you know the servants?" What are you talking about?"

"Mother, the servants are all tongue-twisters, why should you care what they say? Besides, Jiang Xia is afraid of snakes, so what's the matter with protecting him to sleep peacefully?"

"I don't care about other things, but the marriage must be done as soon as possible. Mother will find a matchmaker for you right away." An Tu Ruyue said as she walked out.

"Mother, my good mother, what are you in a hurry for? The emperor ordered his son to investigate the matter of the army//equipment//depot. It won't last for a year or a half. If you want to marry, you have to fulfill the emperor's order. I'm in a hurry." Antu Liuqing held Antu Ruyue.

"Why did the emperor send you out again?" An Tu Ruyue stopped in her tracks: "Where is Desheng, isn't he going?"

"Mother, don't worry about it so much, just stay at home and take care of your peerless beauty, son's affairs are proper."

Andu Liuqing sat down by her mother.His eyes caught a glimpse of the door inadvertently, Jiang Xia was standing there quietly, he didn't know when he came back.

"Hey, you're back?" King Andu went up to meet him: "Where did you go all day, I'm worried."

"I... just go out for a walk." Jiang Xia nodded to Andu Ruyue in salute.

Hearing this, Antu Ruyue didn't give Jiang Xia a good look, and walked out.

It was already noon when Jiang Xia woke up, Antu Liuqing had long disappeared on the bed, and only after asking the servants did he find out that Liu Qing had gone to the palace to face the saint early in the morning.

After washing and tidying up his clothes, he did not see the prince back after lunch, so he decided to go out to find Pang Hong and the others.I haven't seen them for a few months, how is their current situation?

Back in the troupe's small courtyard, Pang Hong and the others were not there, and after asking, they found out that they had gone to sing an opera.Only the second mother, Li Hao, was doing laundry in the courtyard.Seeing Jiang Xia in all her clothes, Erniang felt sour.

"You bastard, where did you die these past few months? Wearing such beautiful clothes, you don't come back to see my mother."

"Erniang..." Jiang Xia cried, not knowing what to say, how can I explain what happened in the past few months?

"Are you okay?" Jiang Xia helped Li Hao to sit down.

"What's the matter? The three disabled people in a day are clear soup and water, and the theater troupe has left two young men. Now there are not many people in the theater troupe."

"Pang Hong, are they okay?"

"Ask them yourself. I don't tell my mother anything. I'm not a god, so how do I know so much?"

"Er Niang, eat something first."

Jiang Xia took out a pack of pancakes from her arms.He bought this when he was out of the palace and was shopping on the street, and he hadn't had time to eat it yet.

Wow, when Li Hao saw it, his eyes glowed, and he immediately started to eat.It seemed that she was indeed hungry for a long time.

Looking at Erniang's white hair at the temples and her worn clothes, Jiang Xia couldn't help feeling sad.Er Niang has aged a lot in recent years.Although she treats herself badly, after all, her father married her back, and she is also her stepmother in name, so she should be treated kindly.

Thinking of this, he took out a few pieces of silver from his bosom, took off his clothes and handed them to Li Hao, it was all his belongings.

"Erniang, you take out this clothes and pawn them for some silver and buy some delicious food."

His bright clothes were made for him by King Antu.At that time, Andu Liuqing thought that he was not dressed well, so he ordered his servants to make several sets of clothes according to his size.

"Xiao Xia..." Li Hao stood up, took the broken silver and clothes, and hadn't had time to swallow the biscuits on his mouth.

"Xiaoxia, Erniang has been ashamed of you all these years, and didn't take good care of you..."

"Er Niang, don't talk about it, just stay in the troupe and stay well. Although you are not rich, you can still have three meals a day." Jiang Xia comforted her.

"Are you still leaving?" Li Hao's eyes became kind and reluctant.

"Don't leave, Xiao Xia will take care of Erniang from now on." Jiang Xia smiled and helped Li Hao to sit down: "Come, eat slowly and drink some water."

"Xiao Xia..." Li Hao hugged Jiang Xia in his arms, with tears in his eyes.

"Erniang..." Jiang Xia patted Li Hao's back lightly and felt a burst of warmth.

He hadn't experienced much family affection since he was a child. When he was young, his father ran around with the troupe, gathering less and leaving more. When he was older, his mother was bitten to death by a snake. The second mother was just a decoration and didn't take care of him.

Now that I have grown up and become sensible, I know the value of family affection. Although the second mother is not good, a child with a mother will not become an orphan.He felt that Er Niang should be treated well.

Cleaned up the small yard with Li Hao, cleaned all the costumes and props of the troupe one by one, and mended the holes in the clothes with Er Niang, the two talked and laughed for a long time.

In the evening, Pang Hong came back with the few remaining members of the troupe. He was very happy to see Jiang Xia.Li Hao cooked some delicious meals, and everyone ate happily.

"How is it? Are you doing well in the palace these few months?" Pang Hong gave him a piece of meat.

"Well, very good." Jiang Xia said with a smile.

"On the surface, King Andu is unrestrained, but in fact he has a very good heart and is a person worthy of association."

"I rushed to him to save you a few times, and I know he is a good person. How about it, did you treat him..." Pang Hong suddenly whispered: "I heard that you slept together?"

"Hush..." Jiang Xia didn't have time to throw the chopsticks, and covered Pang Hong's mouth and whispered: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"What nonsense?" Pang Hong looked indifferent: "We have heard about you outside. How is it, interesting to him?" He probed.

"Nothing." Jiang Xia vetoed with a serious face. She has no habit of cutting sleeves, and she will never let the prince be stigmatized.

"Don't deny it, you don't mean that to him, why did you stay there for so long?"

"..." Jiang Xia stopped her chopsticks, yes, after staying in the palace for more than three months, is there really nothing else she wants?

"Don't hesitate, that's fast fat, don't miss this opportunity." Pang Hong smiled, not knowing whether it was teasing or supporting.

"Shut up." Jiang Xia covered his mouth, yelling nervously and softly.

"Seeing how nervous you are, is it important? The key is what you think in your own heart?" Pang Hong ignored him, put down his chopsticks and walked into the room.

Jiang Xia just sat there dumbfounded.Pang Hong's words shook his heart like thunder.

You can't stay in the palace anymore, otherwise it will be bad for everyone.Before staying in the palace, he just wanted to accompany him, take care of him, and repay him for his help again and again, but if this repayment would bring embarrassment to everyone, he would rather leave.

Returning to the palace with heavy steps, this time he didn't know how to speak to King Antu. There were fair reasons for leaving before, but this time...

Thinking of the days and nights with Andu Liuqing, sitting at the gate of the mansion for a long time.He is a very emotional person, especially Antu Liuqing, who has no purpose, wholeheartedly and purely good feelings for him, which makes him feel inexplicably moved and concerned.

Outside the door, the conversation between Antu Ruyue and Antu Liuqing was clearly heard.Andu Liuqing was still thinking about his fear of snakes in his dream, and when he heard this, he laughed again, feeling very satisfied and happy, he really cared about himself.

But just as his mother said, Liu Qing couldn't live a lifetime with a man in his arms, he was always the one who wanted to marry a wife.He is a prince, a relative of the emperor, and it is impossible for him to be ignorant of himself.

"Don't worry about it, my mother has such a bad temper." Antu Liuqing explained to Jiang Xia watching her mother's distant shadow.

"Well, it's okay. I'm here to say goodbye to you." Jiang Xia looked at him and didn't enter the room.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Antu Liuqing's face suddenly became ugly, worried that what his mother said just now would hurt him.

"It's nothing, but my second mother is here, and I want to spend more time with her." Jiang Xia obviously lacks sincerity.

"You can take your second mother to the mansion and take care of her, so why do you have to leave?" Andu Liuqing started to tease him again after being serious for only two seconds: "Should I go back and see some pretty girl? ?”

"It's nothing." Jiang Xia looked at him: "Thank you for your care during this time, we will have a chance to meet each other, so don't let it go, take care."

"Hey, don't..." Andu Liuqing tugged on his sleeve, with a domineering expression on his face: "Don't think of leaving the gate of this palace without a serious reason."

"Liu Qing..." Jiang Xia looked at him with mixed feelings in his heart. To be honest, King Andu was really kind to him, and no one could bear to leave suddenly at this time.But, hey, don't worry about it, it's good for everyone to leave.

Jiang Xia pushed his hand away, smiled slightly, with some helplessness in the smile: "Take care."

"If you leave like this, I will become a big snake, haunting you every night to prevent you from getting a good night's sleep." Andu Liuqing threatened him from the door.

Jiang Xia's face changed. When he heard the snake, his heart couldn't be calm. The death of his mother hit him too hard. Whether it's true or not, he should hide first.

"Look at you, you just can't leave me, don't leave, it's late at night, go to sleep." Andu Liuqing pulled him into the room.

He smiled speechlessly, the prince is fine with everything, but loves to make trouble out of no reason.Sitting on the couch, looking at Antu Liuqing, determined to have a heart-to-heart talk with him.

"In my heart, I have always regarded you as a brother. Since we met, you have helped me a lot, and I will remember it."

"But Mrs. Ander is right. You will marry a wife sooner or later. If I stay any longer, it will be bad for your reputation and bad for your official career."

"Jiang Xia, what are you talking about?" Andu Liuqing couldn't listen.

"Is this king someone who cares about reputation and official career? What kind of wife is not a daughter-in-law? In my eyes, you are the best." Andu Liuqing blurted out.

After finishing speaking, the two were stunned for a moment, and their eyes met in shock.

"Look at you, just talk nonsense, Mrs. Antu is right, I have to find you a wife, otherwise you will never grow up if you are fooling around all day long." The words Jiang Xia gave him made his heart pound.

Compensation smiled and stood up to help him take off his coat, and brought him a basin of hot water: "Wash your face first, you are tired after a busy day, go to bed early."

"Are you still leaving?" Andu Liuqing asked.

"Well, Erniang and Pang Hong are still waiting for me." Jiang Xia replied softly, even though he was unwilling to leave in his heart.

"What about me?" Andu Liuqing held him back like a savage child: "Who will accompany me when you are all gone?"

"Stop making trouble." Jiang Xia pushed his hand away: "We are brothers after all, and we will meet again sooner or later."

"When you leave, when will we meet?" Andu Liuqing pulled him.

"When you get married and start a business, and your children are in groups, that's the day we meet."

"Why was it then..."

"Because I came to be their father at that time. You are their father, and I will be their father. Do you think this is good?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for his response, Jiang Xia left without looking back.At this time, he must make a decisive decision, otherwise the consequences...

Night, quiet, wind, soft, breathing, gently...

Andu Liuqing was sitting in front of the door, the courtyard was empty, the servants had all gone to rest, only the stars in the sky kept blinking at him...

"What's the matter with marrying a daughter-in-law? Your age is the age when you should marry a daughter-in-law. Do you really want to hold a man in your arms for the rest of your life?"

"Is this king someone who cares about fame and official career? What kind of wife is not a daughter-in-law? In my eyes, you are the best."

Thinking of the scenes with Jiang Xia, I feel that the time is very good and I feel very happy.

"There are snakes..." Andu Liuqing suddenly burst out.

"Don't!" Jiang Xia was taken aback by the sudden shout, and climbed up on King An Tuo's body.

"Let's go, lady..." King Antu carried him on his shoulder and laughed loudly: "The head cover is off, and you are almost in the bridal chamber."

Can those jokes be taken seriously?No way, I usually quarrel with my cousin, Hua Qianyi and the others. Could it be that I treat him?I don't really have the habit of breaking sleeves...

Thinking of this, King Anders shivered shrewdly.Not thinking about it anymore, he lazily stood up and tidied up the files before the case...

The next day, Andu Liuqing ordered fifty government soldiers, and with the blueprints, began to investigate the potential safety hazards of the army//equipment//depot in Shendu.
