Glory all the way

Chapter 360
Loulan is close to the Tianshan Mountains, so the weather is colder than that of the capital of the Song Dynasty. Just after November, heavy snow falls frequently. Often the previous snow has not melted, and the next snow will fall profusely.

When it comes to the twelfth lunar month, it is covered with snow every day, and it is rare to see the snow melt and expose the ground.

"I don't know, what happened to your eldest sister in Bieyuan."

The earth dragon in the inner hall was glowing with warm air, Yue Ji looked at Du Xuan and Du Yuan who were sitting around, and sighed softly, not without worry.

Du Yuan replied with a smile, "Yesterday I also received a letter from my eldest sister, saying that the remaining poison in her body has been almost cleaned up, and she will be back in about ten days."

"Ten days... At that time, you will also be sealed, and our family will be able to spend a reunion year together."

Yue Ji sighed contentedly.

As the few people were talking, a maidservant came in to pass the news, saying that there were some old ministers from the Zhaohe Hall who were ordered to come and wait for King Youzhen to show them off.

Du Yuan greeted him, got up and pinched Brother Yan's face, then turned and went outside.

These days, Du Yuan was handling all affairs in the court, and he already felt a little familiar. Even Sadoer said that King Youzhen's progress was very rapid, and he was indeed the blood of the Tian family, so he should not be underestimated.

Only Yue Ji and Du Xuan knew how much effort Du Yuan put in behind this.

Every evening, I went to Yufu Hall to accompany Yue Ji for dinner, then Du Yuan went back to Zhaohe Hall to watch the memorial, and when he rested, it was often past midnight.

Not only that, Du Yuan also memorized the personnel appointments of various ministries in the court, as well as the performance of those officials in the past few years, and their achievements in office.

Du Yuan was not ashamed to ask questions when he encountered something he didn't understand, and whenever he had some spare time, he asked his servant to read all the memorials that Suyerna had reviewed in recent years.

Du Yuan said that since he promised Suyerna to act as regent, he tried his best to do his best and never allowed himself to smear her in the slightest.

Seeing Du Yuan like this, Du Xuan was very relieved, even if he was about to leave, he no longer had the slightest worry.

Only Yue Ji, Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo were left in the hall, as well as Brother Yan who was playing hide-and-seek with the maid. Yue Ji sighed softly, looked back at Du Xuan and asked, "It's really decided?"

Du Xuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and then there was a trace of guilt on his face, "Mother, I hope you can understand."

Patting Du Xuan's hand with a smile, Yue Ji said softly: "Of course I understand, but I'm just a little bit reluctant, don't worry, I won't blame you."

She beckoned and motioned for Bai Yingluo to sit beside her. Yue Ji grabbed Bai Yingluo's hand and put it in Du Xuan's. She looked at the two with a solemn expression and said, "Life is long, and you can find your love." It is a rare thing for someone who also loves you. It is God's love and your blessing that you can be together, so you should cherish it and don't let down this blessing."

"Mother, we will remember."

Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo agreed.

With a gentle smile, Yue Ji looked at Du Xuan and said, "Tell me about your childhood. After listening to so much, I still feel that it is not enough. With the things you have said, even if you leave, the future Looking back, I'll be happy too."

Bai Yingluo had heard Du Xuan's stories about her childhood many times. Knowing that it was Yueji's reluctance to part with Du Xuan and wanting to talk to him more, Bai Yingluo retreated tactfully and went to find Brother Yan. Son, play with him.

"Mother, I met a little brother yesterday outside, can I play with him?"

Tired of playing, Brother Yan hugged Bai Yingluo's arm and acted coquettishly.

"Little brother?"

Bai Yingluo looked suspicious.

Beside him, a little palace maid timidly replied: "Princess, it is... the young master of Prince Accra's family."

"You Zheluo?"

Bai Yingluo was a little surprised.

Seeing the little palace maid nodded, Bai Yingluo sighed softly in her heart.

Youzheluo is Yueji's youngest son, and after all, Brother Yan still calls him little uncle.

"Why does Brother Yan want to play with him?"

Grabbing Brother Yan's little hand, Bai Yingluo asked affectionately.

Brother Yan thought for a while with his head sideways, and Fang whispered: "I played hide-and-seek with them, and saw him hiding behind a tree watching us. I went to hold his hand, but he said he couldn't play with us, and he still had homework to do. , there are still a hundred characters to write, if he can’t finish, the master will punish him, so he ran away in a hurry.”

Word by word, Brother Yan shook Bai Yingluo's arm, "Mother, little brother is so pitiful. Let's go and ask his wife to let him play with us for a while, just for a while, okay?"

Looking up, on the warm kang in the inner hall, Yue Ji was lying on her side and listening to Du Xuan talking about his childhood, the expression on her face was indescribably serious and gentle.

However, when she thinks of You Zheluo, her heart will also hurt, right?

They are also mothers, Bai Yingluo feels that she can understand Yue Ji's current mood very well.

"Okay, then let's go find him."

Responding softly, seeing Brother Yan jumping up happily, Bai Yingluo took his hand and walked out of Yufu Hall.

Letting the servant girl lead the way, Bai Yingluo and Brother Yan arrived at Cheng Xun Pavilion.

"My minister has met Princess Zuozhen..."

In the big study room, only You Zheluo was sitting alone. An old man with a white beard was shaking his head and telling You Zheluo a thousand-character essay. When he saw Bai Yingluo coming in, the old man put down the book in his hand and came to greet him .

Although he is only five years old, Youzheluo obviously knows the rules after living in the palace for so many days.

Climbing down from the high chair, Youzheluo saluted politely: "Youzheluo has met Princess Zuozhen."

Wearing a thick sapphire blue brocade robe, small soap-colored boots, and a three-fingered jade belt tied around his waist, he looks like a young adult.

Inheriting Yue Ji's seven-point beauty, you can already see a bit of handsomeness on Youzheluo's immature face, and he must be an elegant and handsome young man when he grows up.

Showing a gentle smile at him, Bai Yingluo looked back at the old master and asked, "How many classes do you have every day?"

"Returning to the princess, there are two classes in the morning and two in the afternoon, and each class lasts for an hour."

The old master replied respectfully.

Bai Yingluo couldn't help frowning.

Even the three major academies in the capital only have classes for three hours a day, leaving a part of the time for students to digest what they have learned during the day and review previous courses.

And You Zheluo is still a child, and he has to attend classes for four hours a day?
"I didn't intend to interfere, but the master must have taught the students before. Such a small child, if pushed too hard, may be suspected of spoiling the seedlings. Therefore, I have a suggestion. From now on, every morning and afternoon One hour of class each, and the rest of the time, let him play by himself, and when he is older, the master will increase the time by himself, okay?"

Bai Yingluo said softly.

Being sent to teach a child with immature intelligence, and having to pretend to teach for so long every day, the old master was already suffering in his heart. Hearing what Bai Yingluo said, he almost cried with joy.

"What the princess said is true, the old man obeyed."

The beard on the old master's chin was trembling because of excitement, as if afraid of Bai Yingluo's repentance, he couldn't wait to agree.

When he left Chengxun Pavilion, Brother Yan took You Zheluo's hand with a look of joy on his face, and You Zheluo obviously couldn't help but looked at Bai Yingluo's face nervously.

Bai Yingluo noticed it, and couldn't help but sighed again in her heart.

Seeing Bai Yingluo and Brother Yan coming back with Youzheluo by their hands, the expression on Yueji's face was somewhat complicated.

After hearing Bai Yingluo's words, Yue Ji said in a low voice: "I used to think so too, but he is a child, and he can't leave the palace to go home after school, and those palace people won't do their best to accompany him Playing, on the contrary, makes him even more boring, so it's better to learn something from Mr. It's me, it's all my fault..."

Seeing that Yue Ji's emotions were brought back to guilt and self-blame, Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo hurriedly tried to persuade her from left to right. After a while, Yue Ji burst into tears and laughed.

At dinner time, Du Yuan came over from the Hall of Zhaohe, and when he saw You Zheluo, he had mixed emotions on his face.

Yue Ji noticed, and was about to explain, but Du Yuan took a step ahead.

"Mother, in the past, I was the one who thought left. It's true that Newusha is a big villain, but Youzheluo is just a child, and he is innocent. I shouldn't transfer all my hatred for Newusha to him. So, my eldest sister and I will treat him kindly, as long as we stay in Loulan for a day, no one will bully him, don't worry."

Said in a deep voice, Du Yuan hugged You Zheluo on his lap, and coaxed him: "My name is Du Yuan, and your father King Accra is my uncle, so you have to call me brother, do you understand?"

"elder brother……"

You Zheluo called obediently.

Although he was still a child, You Zheluo already knew from his master that the person holding him in front of him was now the regent of Loulan, and his status was much more noble than his father.

"good……"

Squeezing his cheek affectionately, Du Yuan coaxed him like he was coaxing his elder brother: "From now on, you are not allowed to run around in the palace after class, you can come here to play with Ming Yan, remember?"

You don’t need to listen to the old master’s nagging in the cold Cheng Xun Pavilion, and you don’t need to do anything to be alone. Not only can you play, but you can also play with that little guy who can’t be shaken off like a little tail. You Zheluo has an unbelievable expression eyes widened.

Seeing Du Yuan nodded affirmatively, You Zheluo hugged his neck excitedly and said, "Brother, you are the best person to treat You Zheluo, and when I grow up, I will treat you well."

Even Brother Yan rarely showed such a moving appearance. Du Yuan was hugged tightly by You Zheluo, and his body was a little stiff.

After a while, Du Yuan gradually relaxed, patted You Zheluo on the back as if coaxing a child, and said, "You are my brother's younger brother, so my brother will naturally treat you well."

Behind her, Yue Ji's eye circles were red, while Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo looked at each other, full of joy and joy.
