The lady of a good match

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, it is the end of the year. Many things have happened and resolved in the past year. Looking at Wei Shuhan, who is now at home with her husband and children every day, Yan Qing feels relaxed physically and mentally from the inside out.

Although Xiao Ning Feng, who is over one year old, can't speak, she understands a lot of things and has learned to be naughty. The house is quite lively.

Because of the age of discipline, under the advice of Chen Xiang and the servants, Wei Shuhan and Yan Qing no longer put him in the bedroom, but handed him over to Chen Xiang. The little guy is overly pampered.

In this way, the evening returned to the previous state where only the two of them were alone.

Yan Qing knew that although Wei Shuhan had withdrawn from the court, he still had Beijiang in his heart, so every day before going to bed, he would chat with him about the affairs of the court, especially the news about the army and Beijiang.

Wei Shuhan always had some constructive opinions, and Yan Qing would tell the emperor the next day.

This has formed a tacit understanding.

"Qing'er, come soak your feet."

Wei Shuhan came in with a specially brewed potion, and greeted the man who was leaning against the bed and reading a book in a coat.

Yan Qing put down the book and lifted the quilt, looked at his red hands from the cold and couldn't help but said:

"Actually, I don't need to boil medicine to soak my feet every day, just cover it and it will warm up..."

"How can that be?" Wei Shuhan smiled and shook his head:

"Now you don't have much time to practice martial arts every day to strengthen your body, and you have to go out every day. The weather is too cold and it is easy to get cold into your body. It is good for your body to boil some medicine to soak your feet. I will give you a massage to relieve the fatigue of walking during the day, and you will sleep soundly. Better."

After finishing speaking, he squatted down and held his ankle gently into the water, and asked softly:

"Is the water temperature right?"

Yan Qing nodded:

"Well, it's alright."

Wei Shuhan smiled, and rubbed his feet lightly and orderly. It was a little sore, but it would feel very comfortable after rubbing. He couldn't help laughing and said:

"Madam is really becoming more and more virtuous."

At the beginning, Yan Qing was still a little unaccustomed to Wei Shuhan's escalating way of serving him. She always felt wronged by the person who put down her dignity for him, but seeing Wei Shuhan wanted to be nice to him from the bottom of her heart, but couldn't bear it reject.

Wei Shuhan slid his callused thumb across the instep of his foot and replied ambiguously:

"Since Qing'er knows, it's enough to compensate me for the cold weather. You pretended to be asleep early the night before and last night when I wrote back to Lin Xiu to deal with the affairs of Fusang City. I know."

"I'm really tired..."

Yan Qing argued, but blushed when he saw a smirk on the corner of his mouth. After thinking about it, he could only change the subject, and routinely mentioned what happened in the courtroom today:

"Cough, I'm not poor with you... Today, General Huo Yang and King Xiaoyao sent letters back at the same time, saying that this year's winter will be over, and the northern border will be extremely peaceful, and the people on the border will be able to live a stable year. Everyone is thinking about your contribution."

Hearing this, Wei Shuhan also put away his sloppy expression, and nodded seriously:

"That's good. The winter will be peaceful and the next year will be peaceful. I wrote to General Huo two days ago to tell him to pay attention to his health. He is getting older and his life in the frontier will be very uncomfortable in winter. I hope that last time I specially let Shang The medicinal wine brought by the team is useful to him."

Yan Qing sighed softly:

"Recently, Dijun often mentions to me and my second brother that General Huo, who once followed General Wei, was a veteran who dedicated half of his life to Northern Xinjiang. Now that Northern Xinjiang is stable and has trained many new generals, Dijun intends to let him I don’t know how General Huo Yang will respond to returning to the imperial capital next year to enjoy his old age in peace.”

After fighting for the country for many years, it's time for the veterans to enjoy their blessings.

"He won't," Wei Shuhan shook his head:

"I dare not tell others, but General Huo Yang will not come back. Like his father, he can't tolerate a grain of sand in some aspects. The glory and wealth of the imperial capital is not suitable for him."

Yan Qing frowned: "But the emperor wants to reward the veterans of northern Xinjiang well."

Wei Shuhan raised his head:

"They understand the emperor's intentions, but they don't care about fame and fortune. Most of the veterans in northern Xinjiang are father's former subordinates. Even though the Wei family has been rehabilitated now, the impact of father's affairs on them will never be erased. They don't care. Will easily return to the imperial capital."

Yan Qing raised her hand and squeezed her chin:

"Then what should I do, I can't just leave it alone..."

Wei Shuhan gently lifted Yan Qing's feet, took the cotton towel that was put aside and dried him, and said:

"You might as well suggest to the emperor that if General Huo replies and refuses, you can order the veterans to retreat from the front line to guard the rear to train recruits. If the emperor has the heart to turn the rewards into something they can use in northern Xinjiang, veterans Most of their families live in small towns on the border of northern Xinjiang, this is the best way."

After finishing speaking, she got up, took the footwashing water and went out, Yan Qing nestled back into the quilt again, carefully considering what he said, thinking it made sense.

Military commanders are different from civilian officials. Most of them are straightforward and heroic. If they are stubborn, they can't pull nine bulls. Instead of doing this, it would be better to start with the people around them.

If they don't accept the glory and wealth of returning to Beijing, then send their merits and gifts to them and take care of their families, and they will be grateful from the bottom of their hearts.

Let's do it like this, and discuss it with the emperor and the second brother tomorrow.

When Wei Shuhan returned to the room, cut the candles and went to bed, Yan Qing had already sorted out the thoughts in his mind, but he didn't mention it to him again. After all, he no longer served the court, and he didn't want him to worry too much. up.

"I thought you fell asleep again..."

Wei Shuhan said with a smile, he hugged the man from behind with his long arms, and covered Yan Qing's slightly cold hand in his palm.

Yan Qing pressed his elbow against his chest and deliberately closed his eyes and replied:

"Well, it's almost time, you should go to bed early too..."

"..." Wei Shuhan froze for a moment, propped himself up slightly, stared at him earnestly and said aggrievedly:

"Really? You have been ignoring me for two days..."

Seeing him like this, Yan Qing could only open her eyes and turn around to face him:

"Of course it's fake. It's only been two days. Why are you so worried?"

Wei Shuhan turned over and pressed forward with a smirk:

"As for, too much, Qing'er, sometimes you just take the opportunity to hide from me..."

Yan Qing turned her face to the side with a guilty conscience:

"Who made you go wild."

Wei Shuhan lowered his head and kissed the corner of his mouth:

"No way, I'm obviously just concentrating on caring for my husband and raising my children at home..."

"You uh..."

"Okay, stop talking, just make it up to me."

"..."

Kiss me until midnight, Yan Qing looked at someone in the room who was getting thicker and thicker, and suddenly said what she had been thinking for a while:

"Shuhan, let's get married next year when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. This time, I will definitely welcome you in the door gracefully."

After hearing this, Wei Shuhan tightened his arms and pressed the person close to his chest and replied earnestly:

"it is good."
