The silly and sweet spring of crossing

After the big wedding, what Qiu Baichen wanted most was to leave the capital and return to Xinfang City to celebrate the New Year, and he also wanted to bring He Lin back. Even if he was a companion, he should be on vacation during the New Year.

However, the emperor's wedding was arranged years ago, and He Lanyuzhi, as the only elder of He Lanxuan, had to stay. When his wedding was over, the Chinese New Year would be in half a month, and the roads in winter were not good. Going, going from the capital to Xinfang City, half a month is not enough time, so they can only stay in the capital and leave after the new year.

Qiu Baichen is very interested in what kind of person the little emperor married to be the queen, especially after the big wedding, he left all the work in his hands to others, and he worked as he wanted, and he wanted to be idle. Just idle, gossip if you want to gossip, um, since Qiu Baichen is a person who can't be idle, when he has nothing to do, he likes to gossip.

But the little emperor was very tight-lipped, and he didn't usually know any women. Everyone guessed the candidate for the queen among the daughters of the ministers in the court, and the girls' families began to discuss in private, who would be the future queen.

Qiu Baichen gossiped for a while, but he didn't hear any accurate information. He suddenly thought that he should ask He Lin about this matter. He Lin is closest to He Lanxuan now, so he might know something.

"Daddy, when will brother come back?" Xiao Chuliu came over to stick to Qiu Baichen's body after playing outside enough, because he had been running just now, he was like a small stove, his body was warm, sticking to Qiu Baichen, it was very comfortable up.

"It's snowing outside, the carriage has to go slower, wait a little longer." Qiu Baichen hugged Xiao Chuliu upright in his arms. In fact, children from other people's families usually don't get too tired of their parents at this age .When it comes to educating children, most people nowadays advocate strictness.But Xiao Chuliu is Qiu Baichen and He Lanyuzhi's sweetheart, and it's not an exaggeration to say that he has eyeballs, so seeing his small appearance, he still wants to hug him.

"I like snow." Xiao Chuliu played in the snow outside for a long time just now, and the servants built him a snowman, coaxing Xiao Chuliu to be very happy, and he was so happy when he came back.

"Ah."

"There will be less snow in winter when we go home." Xiao Chuliu murmured, Xinfang City is hotter, and it snows occasionally, but the snow melts quickly, so I can't play to my heart's content.

"Then do you think it's better in the capital or at home." Qiu Baichen asked Xiao Chuliu, Xiao Chuliu was leaning on Qiu Baichen's arms with her two chubby legs crossed, holding Qiu Baichen's hand with her two small hands.

"Home is good." Xiao Chuliu said, after thinking about it, he changed his words again, "anywhere with dad is good."

The child's soft, waxy and sweet voice coaxed Qiu Baichen into ecstasy, hugged his son and kissed him a few times, kissed Xiao Chuliu until his face flushed, and looked at him with slightly pouted lips, as cute as he could be.

"It's good that I have Xiao Chuliu and your father's place too." The father and son are stuck together, He Lanyuzhi is still working in the palace, and there are still many things to do today.

He Lanyuzhi didn't come back until dinner time, and he brought He Lin with him.

"Father, brother!" Xiao Chuliu yelled out immediately when he saw He Lanyuzhi leading He Lin back.He Lanyuzhi got off the carriage, exhaled a breath of white air, he stretched out his hand, He Lin came out of the car, and wanted to help He Lanyuzhi's hand and jumped down, but He Lanyuzhi stretched out his hand and directly held He Linyu Hug over.

"Little uncle." He Lin's face was a little red, the feeling of being held in He Lanyu's arms was very strange, but his embrace was warm and comfortable, making He Lin feel as if he had returned to his father's embrace, so he pursed his lips , I'm not willing to say it.

"Father, I want it too." The snow outside was getting bigger and bigger, Qiu Baichen was afraid that he would get sick, so he didn't let Xiao Chuliu go out, and waited for He Lanyuzhi and He Lin to come over inside.He Lanyuzhi smiled at his son, carried He Lin over, and picked up Xiao Chuliu as well.

"Hoo hoo, it's so cold." Xiao Chuliu was shivered by the cold air on He Lan Yuzhi's body, stretched out his little hand, breathed a few breaths on his mouth, touched He Lan Yuzhi's face, and gave his father warm.

"Okay, come in." Qiu Baichen looked at the three of them, helped them clean the snow off their bodies, took off the cloak they were wearing outside, and entered the room to keep warm.

Lu Ping went out to meet her sisters today. Children are prone to catch cold in this kind of weather, but adults are not afraid. It is more interesting when it snows.

After dinner, Qiu Baichen warmed up the wine and milk, and everyone sat around to drink.Qiu Baichen has a small one on the left, a small one on the right, and a big one on the opposite side.

"How is Lin'er studying recently?" Everyone talked for a while, and the topic came to He Lin, and He Lin said what books he had read and what articles he had written.He has read more books than Qiu Baichen, so it can be said that he is a bully in elementary school. He is taught by powerful teachers in the palace, and he is making rapid progress.

"Did your brother talk about the big wedding and who is the future queen?" Qiu Baichen asked, He Lin blinked his eyes when he heard his question.

"Ms. Meng's family." He Lin said, "Brother Huang said that he will be hired tomorrow. It's not long before Chinese New Year, and time is very tight."

He said Mr. Meng, He Lanyuzhi and Qiu Baichen didn't realize which Mr. Meng it was for a while, but there were really several Mr. Meng with the surname Meng in the court, both high and low.

But they thought about who had a girl who was about the same age as He Lanxuan, and they thought of who it was.Meng Zongxing is the brother-in-law of Wen Ling's father, Mr. Wen, and also Wen Ling's uncle.The Meng family's family is in Xinfang City, and many children in this generation are officials in Beijing, and Mr. Meng is the highest.

It is said that the girl from the Meng family is already sixteen or seventeen years old, but she has been raised in a deep boudoir all year round. Unlike Wen Ling, who has been a talented girl for many years, many people know her. Although they are cousins, they know Miss Meng's family. Few people.

However, this does not mean that the girl from the Meng family will never leave the door.Because Mr. Meng also studied Confucian classics and was very knowledgeable, besides his official position, he also has another identity, that is, Shaofu.Shao Fu was also the emperor's teacher, teaching the emperor knowledge, and Mr. Meng's riding and archery skills were good, so he also taught He Lanying these things.

There are several sons and a daughter in his family, and he often brings a little boy into the palace, and that boy is very familiar with He Lanxuan.However, this little boy is not a boy, but Master Meng's only daughter, Meng Yufan.

Meng Yufan played with He Lanying since childhood, and they were very close. She was He Lanying's only playmate since he ascended the throne. He Lanying told her many things, and she would not reveal them to others.They were also childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts, and the rumor that He Lanxuan had cut off his sleeve was a joke made by He Lanxuan and Meng Yufan, and Yan Ming was deliberately "caught in bed".

That incident didn't have any special significance, but He Lanxuan was bored and wanted to play Yan Ming, and Meng Yufan happened to be there, so he cooperated with him.After Yan Ming left, He Lanxuan and Meng Yufan smiled at each other for a long time.

Meng Yufan's appearance is not particularly good-looking, unlike Wen Ling's soft and charming, she is a bit too heroic, not to mention dressing up as a man, even if she is wearing women's clothing, she may be considered a handsome man.

So, in fact, He Lanxuan's taste problem is really elusive.

He Lin satisfied Qiu Baichen's desire to gossip. When He Lin was in the palace, he also met Meng Yufan a few times. Meng Yufan also treated him as a younger brother and treated him very well, so he had a very good impression of this future sister-in-law. good.However, he promised that He Lanxuan would not talk about things in the palace, so he didn't tell Qiu Baichen and the others everything.

"It's pretty good." Qiu Baichen said, now he shouldn't have to worry about He Lanyun plotting against He Lin, he touched his nose guilty, planning to wait until Lu Ping came back to tell her.

Today Lu Ping knew that her son was back, but because the snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, so the master asked her to stay overnight, so as not to risk going home in the snow at night, so Lu Ping called someone After delivering the letter, he stayed outside and asked He Lin to sleep with Xiao Chuliu today.

"I feel like my mother..." Everyone was warm after drinking, and it was getting late, so Qiu Baichen went to make beds for Xiao Chuliu and He Lin.Now that I am in the sixth grade of junior high school and I am taller, I no longer live in the small bed I used to have. I have a big bed of my own. I usually live by myself and can roll around as much as I want. I am very happy.

When He Lin comes back, he can live with Xiao Chuliu, and the two brothers can exchange feelings.

"Your mother didn't rush back even after you came back, did she?" Qiu Baichen said with a smile.

"En." He Lin nodded, a little disappointed.

"Your mother is looking away now. She is still young. She used to live for you, but now she lives for herself." Qiu Baichen said, he didn't expect He Lin to understand the meaning of it. If a person lives for others all his life But to live, or to have the motivation to live for others, is too sad.

If Lu Ping hadn't had He Lin in the past, she might have followed He Yun, but now Lu Ping has let go of He Yun, and no longer puts He Lin first in everything, and thinks more about her own happiness. This is very good change.

"As long as she is happy." He Lin did not understand what Qiu Baichen said, but seeing that Lu Ping was very happy now, and he was not as sad as before when he left, he also felt happy.

"Lin'er is the most obedient, you two go to sleep, don't play too late, I'm going back." Qiu Baichen spread the quilt for the two of them, watched the two children get into the bed, lay down, and closed their eyes.

When Qiu Baichen said they shouldn't play too late, the two children laughed, which couldn't be hidden from Qiu Baichen.

"Daddy, good night." Xiao Chuliu said softly.

"Good night, little uncle." He Lin said, his eyes were still closed, and he was very absorbed in acting.

It was Qiu Baichen who taught them how to say good night. Seeing the two children lying there saying good night to him, Qiu Baichen's heart was full.

In this life, he has a successful career, a man he likes, a well-behaved son, and Lu Ping and He Lin. He is so perfect, so happy.

Qiu Baichen blew out the lights in the room and returned to the room. He Lanyuzhi had already washed and sat on the bed. When Qiu Baichen came over, he stretched out his arms to hug him.

"Yuzhi." Qiu Baichen called him suddenly.

"What's the matter?" He Lanyuzhi asked when he saw him calling himself in this tone.

"I like you so much." Qiu Baichen said, and his face turned red after speaking.

"I like you too." He Lanyuzhi originally wanted to be ascetic today and have a good night's rest with Qiu Baichen, but when he heard him tease him like this, he wouldn't be a man if he didn't respond.He pressed Qiu Baichen on the bed and looked into his eyes.

"Say it again." He said, Qiu Baichen rolled his eyes at him, this kind of boring game... so sleepy, he wants to sleep.

"Sleep, sleep, stop making trouble." Qiu Baichen wanted to push He Lan Yuzhi away and go to bed quickly, but he was no match for He Lan Yuzhi, and in the end he felt He Lan Yuzhi's enthusiasm because of his teasing.

"The waist is about to break." Qiu Baichen complained, He Lanyu reached out to pinch his waist, Qiu Baichen felt itchy again, couldn't help laughing a few times, and shrank his body.

"Rub it well for me, or you won't be able to get up tomorrow." Qiu Baichen said, "People say that the upper ones are usually more tired, don't you feel uncomfortable?"

"It won't be hard for you to practice martial arts with me every day from now on." He Lan Yuzhi rubbed Qiu Baichen's waist vigorously with his hands, and Qiu Baichen fell asleep slowly in a daze.

The next day, sure enough, He Lanxuan sent someone to the Meng Mansion to propose marriage, and the only young lady of the Meng Mansion was about to enter the palace and become a queen.Originally, according to the etiquette system of this dynasty, when the emperor got married, in addition to the queen, he should also accept several concubines, and these concubines should also be selected from among the daughters of ministers.One is to give birth to heirs for the royal family, and the other is to contain the power in the court.

But He Lanxuan said that he only wanted one queen, and he didn't want too many children.The court ministers naturally objected, and Mr. Meng was not pleasing to the eye, but He Lanxuan has always been like this, and no one can stop him.The system of Great Chu is conducive to the emperor's arbitrariness, so no one else can stop what he decides.

The ministers can only compromise, if the queen does not have much to do, then He Lanyun must accept the concubine, He Lanyun is noncommittal, so I will treat him as agreeing.

There are many etiquettes for the emperor's wedding, and He Lanxuan did everything he could do himself.It may be because he really likes the future queen and hopes that she can enter the palace as soon as possible.

Under the auspices of He Lanxuan, the preparations for the wedding were quickly completed. On the day of the wedding, the entire capital was decorated with lights and festoons. As He Lanjing's elder, He Lanyuzhi also personally participated in the wedding ceremony. On the sixth day, Lu Ping brought He Lin into the palace together.

He Lanxuan was wearing a bright red wedding gown, embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon, which set off his rosy face.He is not very old, but he looks a lot more mature in this suit.

The bride is also wearing a red wedding gown, with a complicated and beautiful phoenix crown on her head, without a veil covering her face, her face looks beautiful and pleasant, although she is younger, she also has the demeanor of a mother.

The emperor got married, and there were so many etiquettes that he would die, not only to worship the heaven and the earth, but also to worship the ancestors. Qiu Baichen followed along the way, feeling that he was going to be exhausted, and the emperor and queen must have no strength at night.

He was actually very tired when he got married, but he didn't expect that He Lanyun would be even more tired here.

After going back at night, Qiu Baichen fell on the bed and didn't want to get up. He Lanyu laughed at him, but he still helped him to pack up, took off his clothes, and went to bed together to sleep.

On the other side, it may be because young people are really strong, or because they are more excited about getting married for the first time, unlike Qiu Baichen and his children who only get married when their children are older. They have slept together so many times, and there is no novelty.

In the bedroom, He Lanxuan took off Meng Yufan's phoenix crown, looked at her delicate face, and was a little apprehensive about wanting to kiss her.He seldom has such emotions, but when facing Meng Yufan or He Lin, it is difficult for him to keep wearing a mask.

He is still in line with his age in some respects, but not many people can see it.

Meng Yufan looked at He Lanxuan and hesitated for a long time. She sat up straight for his convenience, but he didn't move for a long time. up.

Although they had been together since they were young, He Lancong and she had never done anything more than holding hands. Seeing that his little queen was so active and enthusiastic, He Lancong lost her shyness.

When the clouds cleared and the rain closed, the young couple lay on the bed and whispered.

"Brother Sui, you are much more handsome than when you were a child." Meng Yufan said, "You are also worse than when you were a child."

Meng Yufan was a direct bystander of many of He Lanxuan's conspiracies. She was the one who knew He Lanxuan best in this world, not one of them.

Now the two of them are finally together, and they have endless things to talk about. The two of them babbled until the middle of the night, and finally they were so tired that they fell asleep together.

He Lanxuan's mother was buried by the late emperor, and later the late emperor did not allow any concubine to be the queen mother, lest the foreign relatives monopolize power and threaten He Lanjing.Now that Meng Yufan is married, it means that she has no mother-in-law and no competitors. In the future, she will be the only one in the harem, and He Lanxuan's favor will be hers, which can be said to be very powerful.

Others must have criticized He Lanxuan's actions. Mr. Meng has almost become a target of public criticism in the court, and his daily life is very difficult, and he always feels a lot of pressure on his colleagues.

Naturally, He Lanxuan would not let his young husband and father-in-law be embarrassed in this way, so he simply resorted to iron-blooded tactics to silence the people below. The daughters of each family should get married as soon as possible, and don't dream about entering the palace every day.

During the Chinese New Year, He Lanyuzhi and Qiu Baichen entered the palace, and everyone had a family feast. After the fifteenth day, He Lanyuzhi and Qiu Baichen left the capital together and returned to Xinfang City.

Their married life has just begun.
