General, please stay

Chapter 242

Guoguo quickly wiped away tears, sat up straight, and said with a smile: "Mother, Guoguo understands, mother is doing it for Guoguo's good."

This child is always so sensible!But you will feel less and less understand her mind!

But the words had already been uttered, and it was hard to take back. After Yan Junming returned, he really shifted his focus from attacking the queen party to attacking the new civil servants.

That was also something that Qigui had no choice but to do, Qigui comforted Guoguo a few words, and this matter was just like this.

Yan Junming cheered up and said with a smile, "Guoguo, take Uncle Wang to the yard."

Guoguo looked at Qigui, and Qigui agreed, so Guoguo stood up, put on a cheerful expression, and went out with Yan Junming.

The guest room of Bodhi Temple is in the courtyard, behind which are the residences of the nuns.The calamus flowers in the yard are blooming just right.

Yan Junming pointed to the flower and asked what Guoguo was.

Guoguo said: "It's calamus flowers, my mother likes calamus flowers the most."

Yan Junming said: "Your mother's temper has become worse and worse recently, even your father is afraid of seeing her!"

Guoguo said unhappily: "Nonsense, my mother has the best temper, the softest heart, and the most considerate of others. My father is not afraid of my mother, my father respects my mother."

Yan Junming laughed loudly, and said: "When you talk about your mother, you are all excited. Your mother is a fairy in the sky, so you can't tolerate others saying no. Let me ask you, do you think there is nothing wrong with your mother?"

Guoguo sighed: "My mother is good at everything, but she is a little stupid."

"From your mouth, no one is as smart as you."

Guo Guo glared at him angrily.

Yan Junming smiled and said, "I'm afraid Uncle Wang won't be able to visit you often and live here with your mother, are you afraid?"

Guoguo said: "Don't be afraid, my mother has guards, everyone is very skilled. There is also Uncle Li, who will appear from time to time to protect my mother."

She was talking about Li Wan.

Yan Junming said: "As long as you follow your mother, everything will be fine."

Guoguo smiled and took Yan Junming's hand, and said, "There is also Uncle Wang. Following Uncle Wang, Guoguo feels very at ease."

Yan Junming was happy.

Behind them, Qi Gui stood by the door, looking at the big and small in the yard, he could only sigh.She is not a fool either. Judging from Yan Junming's performance, he really doesn't have any obscene intentions, it's just that an elder likes juniors too much.

If he didn't know anything, it could be said that it was because Yan Junming had no children.

But now that she knew it, looking at it now, she didn't know how the heaven would arrange it.

Suddenly thought of Li Wan.Knowing the suffering of fate, for her, she just glimpsed the tip of the iceberg, and she already felt uncomfortable.That kid Li Wan really doesn't know how he got here.

She backed away, closing the door slowly, determined to keep out of sight.

In the afternoon, I planned to listen to Master Huiyun's lecture, but it was a waste of time.Guoguo played with Yan Junming until the sun went down, and she didn't come back. There were still many flowers on her head, and her face was flushed, as if she was very happy.

Qi Gui was listless, half lying and half sitting reading a book, and said, "Are you hungry?"

Guoguo smiled and said: "I have already ordered Chuanshan. Mother, Uncle Wang said that there are female officials in the palace. When Guoguo grows up, can you send Guoguo to the palace to be a female official?"

Qi Gui immediately couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "Generally, the daughters of Gongqing's family hide and refuse to enter the palace. Even if they enter the palace, they still want to be concubines. This is the first time I heard that someone wants to enter the palace to be a palace maid! "

"It's not a court lady, it's a female official!" Guoguo corrected unhappily.

Qigui pulled her to sit beside him, said: "Guoguo, this female official, to put it nicely, is actually just a servant of those masters in the palace, do you know what's going on?"

Guoguo shook her head, this was the first time she had heard such a statement from a female officer.But after Qi Gui said it, she realized that she had stayed in the palace for so long, and she hadn't seen any woman who looked like an official.Some Baolin, talented and talented people, usually do things like serving tea and pouring water.

Qigui whispered: "Look, you know Hu Baolin in the palace. She is a female official. She is from the seventh rank. If she is outside the palace, she is a county magistrate or other officials. But in the palace It’s different inside. Also, in fact, many women are of rank. For example, you yourself are the Marquis Lord of the second rank. If you put it outside, it’s the same as the ministers in the court.”

Guoguo is naturally very smart, after thinking about it, he said: "Guoguo is different from those Shangshu adults..."

"Of course it's different," Qi Gui said with a smile, "but you can receive the same salary as those Shangshu lords."

Guoguo muttered, "What's the use of salary..."

As smart as she is, she naturally figured out the whole story.Immediately felt a little sad, thinking in my heart, why are men and women, even though they are of the same rank, so far apart?
Of course, she would never say such things in front of Qigui, lest it make Qigui unhappy.

Guo Guo said: "Uncle Wang is really unreliable..."

Qi Gui was happy, and said: "Yes, he is extremely unreliable!"

Guoguo grinned.

The maid brought up the food, and it was all vegetables and tofu, fried in vegetable oil, probably with some salt, and nothing else.But this rice is excellent, no worse than the round-grained rice in Marquis Wu's mansion.

Guoguo had just passed the day and was already a little sad. After taking two bites, she sighed: "Actually, the rice here is quite delicious. If there is meat, I can definitely eat two big bowls."

Qi Gui said: "You'll get used to it as you eat, and it's good for your body if you eat light."

As he spoke, he picked up another piece of green vegetables for her.

Guoguo picked up a bowl of rice and said, "There are many ways to cook vegetarian food. You don't have to do this with vegetables and tofu every day!"

Qi Gui smiled and said: "If you pay attention to your appetite, why do you practice? Why do you fast? You can just eat big fish and meat."

"Mom, you sound nice. When I said meat just now, you clearly swallowed."

"..."

The place in the nunnery is small, and they are confined to the guest room and cannot walk around.It's very boring in the mountains. I just wait until it's dark before I can sleep.

The next night, the mother and daughter lay down and slept together.

After a few days like this, Guoguo couldn't take it anymore, and began to ask people to go down the mountain to find all kinds of delicious vegetarian food.

In fact, Qi Gui couldn't bear it either, if she had been young, she would have slipped out to play.But now, after all, he is an adult with children, and he doesn't want to set a bad example for Guoguo.Seeing Guoguo start to talk, she just turned a blind eye, and even had a little expectation in her heart.

The first thing Guoguo brought back was gluten.It is said to eat like meat.

After making a plate and eating it for a few days, the mother and daughter soon got tired of it again.Guoguo asked people to find delicious glutinous rice balls, vegetarian pastries, and so on.

I ate it in turn, and after half a month, I couldn't take it anymore.

Seeing that Guoguo was crying all day long, looking listless and thinner.Qi Gui hesitated again and again, and said: "Guoguo, your health is not good yet, will you be able to bear it if you continue like this?"

Guoguo hurriedly said: "I can't take it anymore, mother, let's go back."

Qi Gui was startled and laughed again, and said, "Why didn't I realize that you love meat so much?"

She looks like a pretty innocent girl with good self-control.

Guoguo acted coquettishly next to the chess piece, and said, "Mother, those princesses who eat peas with chopsticks for a meal, I think they are strange. They obviously have a table of good dishes, but whatever they serve, they can be served as a meal. How to carry it down."

Qi Gui recalled that she was also a beggar herself, so she was naturally greedy.Guoguo's life was similar to hers in the past, so no matter what it looks like on the surface, the appetite should be very close.

She smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's late today, and early tomorrow morning, we two will hide in the back mountain and eat roasted beggar chicken!"

"Really?" Beggar chicken is definitely the most desired food for hungry people, and Guoguo started to salivate just hearing the name.

Qi Gui said: "Really, when my mother was in the nunnery, she would also go to the back mountain to roast beggar chickens."

Guoguo was happy, and dragged Qigui to mutter until midnight, insisting that Qigui tell her about the past.To her, there is nothing to hide about Qi Gui, leaving aside those things that are too heavy, from the interesting things about her in the palace when she was a child, to going to the nunnery, then down the mountain to wander, and then to entering the military government.

Guoguo listened with gusto, and said, "Mother, how did you know dad?"

Qi Gui was stunned for a moment, and said: "Oh, that year, Mother robbed someone for land, left the city, and then met your father..."

Balabala talked for more than half an hour.

Then Guoguo fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Qigui asked Lily to go down the mountain to catch a chicken and go up the mountain to prepare. Then, in the name of going for a walk in the back mountain, he brought Guoguo and a few close female guards around him, and made a big fuss. Fang Fang went out from the gate.

Thinking about it is better than when I was a child, I don’t need to be sneaky.

Lily has already found a good place, which is by the stream in the woods about a mile away.Lily had already slaughtered the chicken, stripped the feathers and buried it in the ground.

Guoguo was in a good mood, and when she got there, she let go of Qigui's hand and ran out, squatting beside Lily and stretching her neck, whimpering.

Qi Gui was wearing a bunt today, and he was in a good mood, so he squatted aside as he walked forward.She brought a total of eight girls out, and everyone was relatively relaxed, sitting or standing leisurely.

Lily coaxed Guoguo, Lan Ying came forward and whispered in Qigui's ear, "Princess."

Qi Gui said, "Huh?"

Lan Yingdao: "A few days ago, my subordinates went down the mountain to purchase, and found that the capital is in great chaos, especially around the imperial city."

Qi Gui frowned and said, "Tell me what's going on?"

In fact, Lan Ying went down the mountain to purchase a few times, but she didn't go too far, and she didn't see much at all. It was only recently that she paid attention and observed carefully a few times before she saw the way. That's why I came to tell Qigui today.

Recently, Yanjing is indeed in chaos.One of the very important reasons is that the envoy Qi came to Beijing, and they came to urge Yan Junming and Qi Fengming to get married as soon as possible.

They simply pretended not to know about Qi Fengming.Now Qi Fengming is detained by the Queen Mother in the palace, but at least he is no longer a prisoner on the surface.
