Wen Family Has a Wife

Wen Yuanhong, who was shot inexplicably, rubbed his nose with a sneer, and said, Uncle, I'm not as leisurely as my younger sister. I have a lot of time to practice swords. It would be nice if I don't hold everyone back!

Xi Hongjun shook his head, and said seriously: Practicing martial arts can not only strengthen your body, but also protect the things you care about. When necessary, you should not ask others. You should exercise more.

Yes! Wen Yuanhong answered very readily.

Xi Hongjun didn't say anything more, and Wen Yuanjing on the side smiled and said: Uncle, the meeting gift you gave me yesterday is so beautiful, I like it very much! Is that a pearl? It looks so big!

Wen Yuanhong joked: The eldest brother-in-law also said that he looks like Dongzhu!

Wen Yuanhong's original intention was to praise those beads, but Xiao Yuyan snorted disdainfully: What's so good about Dongzhu! It can't compare to the Nanzhu given by uncle!

Nanzhu? The Wen brothers and sisters all stared wide-eyed.

Xiao Yuyan nodded as a matter of course, It's Nanzhu! Haven't you heard of it?

The brothers and sisters shook their heads honestly, Xiao Yuyan immediately became arrogant, and explained to them: There is a saying in our side, the so-called Dongzhu is the pearls produced in the northeast river basin, not only must be large and round, but also of the best quality. As long as all the conditions are met, it can be called Dongzhu, and it is also considered precious. However, Nanzhu is even more rare than Dongzhu. It comes from the sea.

Every year, thousands of pearl divers bury the sea for the sake of the South Pearl. Unfortunately, there are good and bad pearls picked up from the sea. Only those that meet various harsh conditions can be called South Pearl. Pearl, you should have seen it yesterday, the South Pearl is delicate and dignified, smooth and crystal clear, round and transparent, smooth and colorful, how can the East Pearl be compared!

The brothers and sisters of the Wen family were stunned for a while, and Wen Yuanhong came back to his senses, marveling at the preciousness of Nanzhu. Of course, he still refused to comment on Xiao Yuyan's relegation of Dongzhu to nothing.

Wen Yuanjing looked at Xi Hongjun with some unease, Uncle, this thing is too expensive, I...

Xi Hongjun waved his hands amusedly, and said angrily, It's just some gadgets. It's because you don't see them often here that uncle brought them for you. If you don't have them here, I don't want to give them away!

Don't listen to what Swift said, although Nanzhu is precious, it is nothing to our Xi family. After all, there are well-trained pearl hunters in the family, and they can harvest a lot of Nanzhu every year. It is unrealistic to sell large quantities, but It is more than enough for home use.

The brothers and sisters of the Wen family clicked their tongues, and for the first time they became very curious about the Xi family.

Seeing their reaction, Xi Hongjun tempted them to go to Lingnan again.

Chen Ningya just smiled when she knew this matter, she didn't intend to pay attention to it, and put more attention on arranging household affairs.

Zhuo Qianyu was the first to notice it. This day, after finishing her family affairs, she immediately went to Chen Ningya's side and asked anxiously, Mother, are you planning to travel far?

Chen Ningya looked up at the keen eldest daughter-in-law, and smiled appreciatively: You are very clever, yes, I want to go to Xi's house with Yuanliang and his eldest uncle after the Emperor's Thousand Autumn Festival, and meet there relatives.

Zhuo Qianyu raised his head, stared wide-eyed and asked, Who does Mother plan to bring with you?

What? You want to go too? Chen Ningya asked in surprise.

Zhuo Qianyu twisted the veil, she really wanted to go! Lingnan! The southernmost tip of Daqi! If I don’t go this time, I don’t know if I will have a chance to go for a walk in this life! It's just that she dare not say such words! Firstly, she was afraid that she would embarrass Chen Ningya, and secondly, as the daughter-in-law of Wen's family, she would follow her mother-in-law whenever she went out, leaving her huge family business behind.

Therefore, Zhuo Qianyu shook his head with difficulty, duplicity.

Chen Ningya knew that she was not telling the truth when she saw her ready to move, and she fell into deep thought, Actually, it's not impossible for you to go together...

Zhuo Qianyu hurriedly shook his head desperately, Mother, I don't want to go! I'll just stay in the capital, watch over my house and children, and wait for you and your father-in-law to come back!

Chen Ningya blinked,

You really don't want to go?

Zhuo Qianyu nodded wildly, and hurriedly changed the topic, Mother, I came here today to confirm with you, and I just wanted to ask if you have any other orders. I am also from the Zhuo family anyway, and the head of the house is still fine. , you feel free to go out.

What's more... my daughter-in-law is worried about the fact that the eldest uncle wants to settle accounts with the noble concubine...

Although that person is hateful, but his status is there, the Xi family may be powerful in Lingnan, but he is nothing in the capital, how could he fight against Concubine Ling? Zhuo Qianyu was worried that this matter would affect the Wen family.

Chen Ningya is not stupid either, she knew what she was thinking after listening to the beginning, and couldn't help sighing: This is the grievance between Ling Guifei and the Xi family, and it involves a human life, even if I am the Xi family, I will not interfere Right, but I think the eldest brother should not act recklessly after going through so many things.

Furthermore, there is a Lingnan prince in our family, so nothing major will happen anyway, you just take care of the family affairs, and there is no need to worry about others.

After being persuaded by Chen Ningya, Zhuo Qianyu finally felt relieved.

As soon as she left, Chen Ningya immediately wrote a letter asking Anweiyi to send her to Mobei.

Seeing that the Emperor's Thousand Autumn Festival is approaching, the bad news from Mobei has also been sent to the capital.

In the early morning, the emperor stared at the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty who were kneeling on the ground with a sick face, and ordered all the princes and the princes of Dingbei to enter the palace together.

Only then did the emperor let the Mobei messenger enter the palace to report, Tell me about the situation in Mobei again in front of all your lovers.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, suddenly there was a feeling that a storm was about to come.

The messenger was dressed in travel and dust, obviously just entered Beijing, before he had time to sit down and take a breath, he immediately knelt down and said loudly: Report to the emperor, the army in Mobei is in emergency. His Excellency led people to investigate, and Master Wen found out that he really wanted to lead troops to fight back.

General Huyan Lifu of the Xiongnu gathered a large force to attack, intending to break through the sandy plains and invade Jili County. Master Wen led his troops to resist and fought the Huns on the sandy plains. Five thousand of the enemy's troops were wiped out, and our army was killed or injured by 800.

Huyan Lifu did not evacuate, stationed troops on the sand plain, and continued to gather troops. Now that the army in Mobei was short of pay, food and medicinal materials were in urgent need, he asked the imperial court for support.

After everyone listened, there was no sound.

It was Dai Yuyang who couldn't help but ask first, How is Marshal Fan injured?

The messenger paused, and replied honestly: Skin trauma, it will be healed in two days.

Um?

Dai Yuyang was puzzled, Since it's only a skin trauma, why is Mr. Wen leading the army and not Marshal Fan?

Could it be that Fan Qirui still has the talent of a military adviser? Strategize and win a thousand miles?
