Pregnant with His Highness' cub before becoming a monk

After the carriage entered Tongsui City, Shi Fang raised the curtain of the carriage and looked out.

To his surprise, although Tongsui City was on the border and the climate was cold, the bustling energy inside the city was comparable to that of Beijun.

Because this side is closer to Dazhou, the style and appearance of the city has been influenced by Dazhou. At first glance, it looks like the feeling after the fusion of two countries. Shifang even saw many shops on the street with The words of Dazhou, such as Dazhou Silk and Satin Shop, Dazhou Steamed Bun Shop and so on.

It's just that they don't know whether these shops were opened by people from Dazhou, or they just borrowed a name.

"Aniang, what are you looking at?" Xiao Laibao leaned over to the window of the car, imitating how to look in all directions.

However, he didn't pay attention to the shops on the street, but instead set his eyes on the man selling candied haws passing by.

"Ahh..." Laibao licked his lips, wanting a candied haws, but then remembered that he was with Shifang and the others, so he held back.Although he is young, he also knows that he should not take advantage of others.

"Do you want to eat?" Shifang noticed the little guy's gaze and asked.

Noble looked at Shifang with some contradictions, and asked in a low voice: "Is it okay?"

The little guy had a little hesitation on his face, but "greedy" was written in his dark eyes.Shi Fang was so teased by his expression that his heart softened, and he immediately looked at Li Yi, who hurriedly told Mu Ting to stop the car when he saw this.

The hawker selling candied haws on the roadside took the initiative to come over and said, "Master, do you want to skewer candied haws?"

Li Yi responded, took the copper plate and paid it to the other party.

Laibao was so happy that he got out of the carriage before Shi Fang could speak, and insisted on picking a bunch by himself.

Seeing this, Li Yi picked him up and asked him to choose a bunch of things he was satisfied with.

"Thank you, Dad." Xiao Laibao thanked Li Yi in a childlike voice, and then took the candied haws.

But when he was about to put it in his mouth, he suddenly remembered something, and brought the candied haws in his hand to Li Yi's mouth, and said, "Father, eat first."

Li Yichang had never eaten this kind of food at such an age, so it was impossible to eat it, so he shook his head.

Seeing that he didn't eat, Xiao Laibao handed the candied haws to Shifang.

Although Shi Fang was indeed a bit greedy, it was impossible to compete with him, so he shook his head and signaled him to eat by himself.

But candied haws, once a person sees something like this, even if he doesn't eat it, he will be so sour that he will drool easily, so Shifang obviously made a swallowing movement, but he didn't expect that the movement happened to fall into Li Yi's eyes.

"Take another one." Li Yi took a few more copper coins and handed them to the peddler.

The peddler was overjoyed immediately, picked out a bunch and handed it to Li Yi, and said, "Young master loves your young master so much, you are really blessed."

Li Yi took the candied haws and said calmly: "This is for my wife.

After he finished speaking, he handed the bunch of candied haws to Shi Fang.

"Young master really loves people..." the peddler added.

Li Yi smiled rarely when he heard the words, and looked at Shifang with a bit of teasing in his eyes.

Shi Fang glanced at him, obviously embarrassed, but didn't refute anything.

"Grandma, let's compete to see who finishes eating first!" Little Laibao held candied haws in one hand and Shifang in the other, looking very excited.

But before Shi Fang could speak, he heard Li Yi say: "Eat slowly, choke carefully."

He didn't know whether he was talking about the little guy or Shifang, but the old and the young were very obedient, and the speed of eating slowed down a lot.

"My lord... Would you like some fried chestnuts?" The chestnut vendor next door greeted Li Yi enthusiastically.

Li Yi didn't want to pay attention to the other party, but heard the other party add another sentence: "...for your wife and young master."

The peddler's words reached Li Yi's heart at once, and he immediately walked to the chestnut stall without any further hesitation.

"Isn't your son a local? We can't eat chestnuts anywhere else. You can only buy them when you come to Tongsui." The peddler handed one to Li Yi while talking, and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try it. Sweet and savory."

Li Yi took the chestnut and peeled it off, then handed it to Shifang's lips.

Shifang was startled for a moment, opened his mouth and ate the chestnut with Li Yi's hand.

"Is it delicious?" Li Yi asked.

"Delicious." Shifang said truthfully.

Li Yi had a smile in his eyes when he heard the words, and said to the peddler, "My wife likes to eat, so let me have a catty."

"Okay!" The peddler hurriedly packed chestnuts for Li Yi, and said while pretending: "Young master and his family are here to visit relatives and friends?"

Li Yi said: "Madam likes to travel in the clouds, take him to look around."

"Sir, you really love people." The peddler said sincerely: "This season is coming, so you can come here, not too early or too late. After that, it will be cold, and it will be too cold to go out. Right now It's a good time."

"En." Li Yi took the chestnuts handed over by the other party, paid for them, took out one, peeled it, and brought it to Shi Fang's mouth.

Looking up at this scene, Xiao Laibao swallowed greedily, but didn't ask Li Yi for it.

Sensing the little guy's gaze, Shifang handed the half-eaten candied haws to Li Yi for him to hold, took the chestnuts himself and said, "Let me peel it."

After everyone returned to the carriage, Shifang peeled a chestnut.

Li Yi originally thought that Shifang would give it to him, but saw that Shifang stuffed the chestnuts into Xiao Laibao's mouth.

Li Yi coughed lightly, pretending that he wasn't looking forward to it, he couldn't argue with a child, could he?

But what he didn't expect was that Shifang peeled chestnuts next, one for himself and one for the little guy. After eating most of the bag like this, Li Yi didn't have any of them.

Li Yi looked helplessly at the candied haws in his hand, and silently bit one.

Then he frowned and said in his heart: How sour!

The carriage traveled slowly all the way, and arrived at the inn that the guide had arranged for them.

Mu Ting entrusted the carriage to the assistant to take care of it, and sent everyone's luggage to the guest room.

Not long after that, the guide came over.Xiao Laibao saw the guide making a face at him, but the other party was quite involved in the show, and did not recognize Xiao Laibao, so he boasted to Li Yi and Shifang: "Your young master is so handsome."

Shi Fang couldn't help laughing, thinking that this is obviously your child.

"My lord, shall I take you to dinner first?" the guide said to Li Yi.

Li Yi glanced at Shifang, thinking that the other party had eaten a lot on the way, and he shouldn't be too hungry, so he said: "Look for a tailor shop first, my wife didn't bring thick clothes when she came, I'm afraid he will be cold." .”

"Yes, the young master is still considerate." The guide hurriedly said.

After a short rest, he took Li Yi and Shifang to a nearby clothing store.

As soon as the owner of the garment shop saw Li Yi and Shifang holding a child, he guessed their identities, and hurriedly approached to say hello.He has been in this business for a long time, and he knows how to speak at such a time. He lingered on the two of them for a moment, and then said to Li Yi: "My lord, there are newly made fox furs in the shop, which are warm and expensive. My lord wants to wear them." Don't you want to give one to Madam?"

Li Yi heard the words and said lightly: "My wife is kind-hearted, don't wear fox fur, let's get a thicker cloak."

"Okay, okay." Hearing this, the boss hurriedly went to fetch some cloaks himself.

Li Yi glanced at it, turned his head to look in Shifang, and said, "You choose."

Seeing that the cloak didn't have any other styles, Shi Fang had nothing to choose from, so he ordered two dark ones.

"Young master, why don't you try it on?" the boss asked.

Li Yi originally wanted to say no need, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words and said to Shifang: "You help me put it on to see if it fits."

Shifang laughed and said, "Is there a cloak that doesn't fit?"

However, he still took the cloak handed over by the boss and put it on for Li Yi.

When he raised his hand to help Li Yi fasten the cloak strap, Li Yi looked down at him, and the breath he exhaled was a little hot, and fell on the back of Shifang's hand.Shi Fang was suddenly dazed, and after he realized it, Li Yi had already taken another cloak and put it on Shi Fang in the same way.

The store owner saw these two people, you help me put them on, and I help you put them on, and he just feels very toothache.

But he still flattered with a smile: "The two young masters are really loving. It's really enviable that the children are so old and they are so gluey."

Li Yi felt very useful when he heard the words, so he confiscated them when he was happy, and bought several more clothes. In the end, Mu Ting, the guide and Xiao Laibao, who were traveling with him, also got new clothes.

The shop owner was so happy that he couldn't stop talking from ear to ear, and when he sent everyone out, he still continued to flatter him: "I wish the two sons a happy marriage for a hundred years, and have another son soon."

Shifang: ...

This boss's mouth is really clever...

After shopping for clothes, the guide took them to a lively restaurant.

The facade of the restaurant is quite low-key, but the decoration inside is very particular, and one can tell that a lot of effort has been spent on it.

"There are quite a few restaurants in our Tongsui city, but this is one of the few restaurants that has both banquet and week dishes." The guide introduced them to the two: "Two wait a while You can try them all, their Dazhou dishes are very authentic."

While talking, the guys in the restaurant came over to greet everyone.

Shifang took a look at their menu and found that there are really two kinds of dishes here.

"Is your chef from Da Zhou?" Shi Fang asked curiously.

"The owner of the small shop is from Dazhou, and the proprietress is from Dawan." The waiter hurriedly said, "So there are dishes on both sides of the small shop, and two cooks are invited from each side, they are all authentic."

When Shi Fang heard the words, he only felt that it was very fresh, and immediately began to be a little curious about the taste of their family.

"There are quite a few restaurants opened by Dazhou people here, but the situation is similar to theirs." The guide said: "The rules of our banquet, outsiders can do business here, but there are many restrictions on opening shops. You have to partner with the big banquet people."

Shi Fang joked, "I just don't know whether their boss and his wife opened the shop together first, or got married first."

"Maybe it's together." The guide laughed.

The guide continued to tell Shifang and them a lot of things about Tongsui, during which time he also mentioned some things about Dazhou. Only then did Shifang know that this guide was not just walking around Tongsui, but would also take him with him on weekdays. The guests go to the big week.

"Da Zhou is a bit like our Tongsui. There are also shops opened by big banquet people everywhere." The guide said: "However, Da Zhou didn't have a big place at first. Their royal city is not far from Tongsui. It's a few walks across the border. The day is coming. It's a pity that there has been a downturn in the past few years, and most of the merchants who have been to the banquet have returned, saying that they can't accommodate people there."

Shi Fang became interested when he heard the words, and asked, "Why?"

"The person above them said that they are a little stupid, and the court is also a mess, and it will naturally be depressed for a long time." The guide said.

Shi Fang thought about it, and thought that Emperor Da Zhou was able to go to him so regardless of the cost, so it can be seen that he is indeed not a wise king.

The so-called upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, and the superiors are stupid, so it is naturally difficult for the court to cohere, and it will be a matter of time before something goes wrong.

"However, this is also good. There are more merchants coming from Dazhou, and our Tongsui is much more lively than before." The guide continued: "There are rumors that there seems to be a bad quarrel with Dazhou in the capital. If things go on like this, I'm afraid that the two countries will start fighting again, and it will be troublesome at that time."

Shifang thought about a question before. Since the court of the Great Zhou has never stopped, and more than one time has been arranged in the capital, the big banquet can be just a piece of official document, wouldn't it be enough to directly refuse to let the people of the Great Zhou come in?

As long as the people of the Great Zhou cannot enter the banquet, they will naturally have no chance to make detailed arrangements.

But it wasn't until this moment that Shifang fully understood why the emperor and empress hadn't done this.

The two countries have been close to each other for a long time, and there are many cases of intermarriage among the people. If an order is issued directly, there will be countless families, wives and children separated, and the two places will be separated.

Just like...

Shifang couldn't help thinking of those Dazhou people who died tragically outside Dingfu County.

Those people did nothing wrong, did their duty, and had no evil intentions, but it ended like that.

Shi Fang looked at Li Yi, and remembered that the other party had said before that this time he ran away from the capital and came to this borderland, because he made up his mind to solve the matter of Da Zhou.Now that I think about it, Li Yi's trip should have been acquiesced by the empress, and he was deliberately arranged to come here to have a look before deciding how to deal with Da Zhou next.

The best way to deal with it is to keep the feast unaffected and take care of the people on the border.

After a while, the dishes were ready.

This time, Li Yi ordered Dazhou dishes, and wanted to try them to see how they tasted.

But after the dishes were served, he realized that most of the dishes on the table were actually not much different from the banquet dishes, but compared to the capital, the taste was stronger and not as light as the one in the capital.

Fortunately, Shifang seems to like it very much, and it tastes delicious.Seeing that Shifang put all the peeled shrimps into Xiao Laibao's bowl, Li Yi frowned immediately, took the empty bowl and peeled several of them, and handed them to Shifang.

Shifang didn't realize it for a while, thinking that Li Yi was stripped to Xiao Laibao, so he fed them all to Xiao Laibao.

Li Yi:? ? ?

When everyone had eaten and was about to pay the bill, they suddenly heard a noise coming from the hall.

The noise was originally only in the backyard, but later the noise reached the lobby.

It was two young people who were arguing. After listening to Shi Fang for a long time, he felt that the two of them had a lot of grievances.

"Why didn't anyone stop it?" Shi Fang couldn't help but ask.

A guy passing by him hurriedly explained in a low voice: "I'm sorry, sir, this is the owner and the owner's wife of the small shop. The couple will fight every day, and they won't really fight. Don't worry."

Shi Fang was surprised when he heard the words, and after listening carefully, he realized that these two young people were indeed a couple.

"It's agreed to reconcile, don't be cowardly!" one of the handsome-looking young men in a red robe said angrily.

"Why am I being cowardly? I told you I'm busy today, so I can't leave!" said another blue-robed young man with a heroic demeanor.

The red-robed youth said again: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, aren't you just afraid that you won't be able to open this restaurant after He Li?"

"Don't be a villain, I haven't thought about it that way. There are so many people in the banquet. If you don't partner with me, I will change someone." The blue-robed youth said.

The red-robed youth sneered, and said, "Go, go to the Yamen now, whoever doesn't go is the grandson."

"Let's go!" the blue-robed youth said.

According to the rules of the big banquet, the marriage between the big banquet person and the big Zhou person must be registered in the yamen, so He Li also has to go to the yamen for a formality.

"Do you really want to reconcile?" Shi Fang couldn't help but ask.

Seeing that although these two people quarreled fiercely, they looked like a good match, so he couldn't help but feel a little sorry.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his words fell, the guy beside him couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Shi Fang asked puzzled.

"Guest officer, don't worry, they can't leave." The waiter hurriedly said.

Before Shi Fang could react, he saw that the blue-robed young man had just walked to the door, and hadn't crossed the threshold, and then he clutched his chest and groaned for a while, and passed out directly.

"Oh, the shopkeeper's fainted." Two guys rushed forward to check the situation.

The red-robed young man stood outside the door for a while, his tone slowed down a bit, and he said, "Here we go again!"

"Miss Boss, the shopkeeper doesn't look very good. Would you like to come back first?" the clerk asked.

The young man in the red robe couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and then entered the door again cursing.

Only then did Shifang realize that the blue-robed youth was probably pretending to be dizzy.

However, the red-robed young man actually accepted this trick, and most of the anger on his body disappeared in an instant.

Shi Fang didn't know what he thought of, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Li Yi, with a bit of teasing in his eyes.

Li Yi said innocently, "What do you see me doing?"

"I just think...he's not as smart as you pretend." Shi Fang smiled.

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, showing a rare embarrassment on his expression.

After a while, he whispered in Shifang's ear, "One thing falls one thing."

Shifang: ...

On the other side, the guys carried away the blue-robed youth pretending to be unconscious.

The red-robed young man said helplessly to the crowd: "Today's bills are all free, I'm sorry everyone."

Everyone was very happy after watching the excitement and being free of orders.

Shi Fang secretly thought, if the two of their family make trouble like this every now and then, the store will suffer a lot?

The red-robed youth scanned the store, and his eyes fell on Shifang and Li Yi.

He saw Li Yi whisper something in Shifang's ear just now, but Shifang didn't make a sound, but there was a smile in his eyes.

"Hehe..." The red-robed young man glanced at Li Yi indifferently, and then said to Shifang: "Little brother, listen to my advice from the people who came over, you should think twice about getting married, and don't make people talk twice." It hooked the soul."

Shifang: ...

Li Yi frowned when he heard this, and picked up Xiao Laibao beside him, which meant that they even had children.

Unexpectedly, the young man in red robe looked at Shifang sympathetically and said, "The child is already this old? Then I guess you... can't get rid of it, tsk..." He shook his head and walked away regretfully Li Yi's heart was aroused by that expression.

After such a commotion in the restaurant, Shi Fang felt very emotional.

After returning to the inn, he still hadn't recovered.

He remembered that when he was young, his parents were always very loving and never quarreled.

Later, living in the palace, the relationship between the emperor and the empress was very harmonious, and she almost never blushed. Even if there was an occasional quarrel, the emperor would quickly admit his mistake, and the husband and wife would soon reconcile.

Witnessing those two people quarreling today made Shifang realize that after the two got married, they not only raised their eyebrows, but also went crazy...

On the way back, Xiao Laibao fell asleep in Li Yi's arms.

Although Li Yi looked reluctant when he hugged the person, when he entered the room and put the little guy down, he did so lightly, and even patiently put his hands on the other person and patted him a few times, coaxing him The other party fell asleep again before giving up.

Seeing Li Yi coaxing Xiao Laibao, Shi Fang felt dazed.

He couldn't help thinking about the situation when Li Yi coaxed their children a few years later...

That scene must be very warm, Shi Fang secretly thought.

But for some reason, thinking that he might not be there at that time, Shi Fang felt somewhat disappointed inexplicably.

"What I told the guide was that we eloped from the south, and we were afraid that our family would find us, so we needed to disguise ourselves." Li Yi lowered his voice and said to Shifang, "I told him that we were going to buy one in Tongsui. The facade is a small business, so he will come over tomorrow and take us to see if there is a suitable facade."

Shi Fang was startled when he heard the words, guessing that it was impossible for Li Yi to tell the guide their identities, but he didn't expect Li Yi's story to be so outrageous.

"What if there is a suitable facade?" Shi Fang asked subconsciously.

"Then buy it." Li Yi looked at Shifang with a smile in his eyes and said, "Hide here and open a small shop, and I won't go back."

When Li Yi said this, he was so serious that Shi Fang almost believed it.

Then he couldn't help but think about it following Li Yi's words...

If Li Yi didn't have to go back to the capital, if he really set up a small shop here, Shifang wouldn't have to travel around.

When he was in the capital, he didn't dare to have anything to do with Li Yi because of his status, but it was different in Tongsui.

Shi Fang couldn't help but have a thought in his heart, secretly thinking that it would be fine if Li Yi wasn't the prince.

In that case, maybe they can really... give it a try.

Shifang has never been in love with anyone in his life, and he doesn't know what it feels like when he really likes someone.And his friendship with Li Yi has been very deep since he was a child, so he couldn't imagine the possibility of changing the relationship that had become a habit into another.

It wasn't until he left the capital that he finally accepted slowly that he was no longer Li Yi's elder brother.

The change in the relationship between the two made Shifang no longer reject this possibility as much as it did at first...

"What are you thinking?" Li Yi said suddenly, interrupting Shi Fang's thoughts.

Ten aspects couldn't help turning red, and concealed it: "It's nothing, I just thought... If we really open a shop here, I don't know if it can support the three of us."

"If one shop can't support it, we can open two. If there are more shops, it will naturally be able to support it." Li Yi said.

Shi Fang laughed and said, "How easy is it for you to open a shop?"

"Isn't it easy?" Li Yi said, "Look at those two today, the shop didn't collapse even after making such a fuss."

Shi Fang laughed and said, "If we open a restaurant, we should earn more than them."

Li Yi nodded when he heard the words, and said, "At least I won't be so angry that you want to get divorced all day..."

He didn't realize something was wrong until he said it, but it was too late to take it back.
