Chapter 111 Spring Rain

Qi Younian was in Zhenshanguan everything was fine.?¤

"The Marshal still loves to read in his spare time, and often reads until late at night every day. He went in a hurry and didn't bring many books, but now he's all turned in rags."

"This matter is easy to deal with," Ji Xiaotang said immediately, "I have a lot of books in my study. I will pick a few of them myself later. You can take them back to Ayou."

Cheng Dazhong immediately bowed and agreed.

"The relationship is good, the marshal must be very happy. If the princess has read it, it would be even better." Cheng Dazhong said this without any concern for Qin Zhen. "I also want to congratulate the princess on his full moon."

This time, Qi Younian asked Cheng Dazhong to bring a lot of gifts, saying that it was a full moon gift to Qin Xuan.

Ji Xiaotang smiled after receiving the gift list. This time, Qi Younian finally did not give away the shocking gifts like Xiao Laohu. In addition to the specialties of Zhenshanguan, they were all small bows and arrows, small daggers, and even a deer-skin rattle, as well as some other miscellaneous gadgets.

Even Qi Younian's own son, he probably can only prepare these things.

"You go back and thank me like Ayou. It's rare that he can take time to have all these free time. We have received this feeling." Ji Xiaotang said.

"The Marshal said that as long as the princess and the prince like it." As he said this, a hesitant expression suddenly appeared on Cheng Dazhong's face, as if he didn't know whether he should say something.

"If you have anything, just say it." Ji Xiaotang immediately saw it and said with a smile.

"The Marshal cannot leave at Zhenshan Pass, so he cannot see the young prince with his own eyes. The Marshal said that he really wants to see what the young prince looks like." However, Qi Younian cannot come back, and Ji Xiaotang cannot send Qin Xuan to Zhenshan Pass.

How could Qi Younian let Qi Younian see Xuan'er with his own eyes?

"How about you, just invite the painter to come and draw Xuan'er's image and bring it back to Ayou." Qin Zhen said from the side.

"This is a good idea." Qin Zhen's words reminded Ji Xiaotang at once. "Forget it, there is no need to ask a painter. I have finally learned to paint for a few years and generally painted a picture for Ayou to take back. When Ayou returns triumphantly, he will naturally see Xuan'er with his own eyes."

Speaking of it, from Qin Ying's side, Qin Xuan had to call Qi Younian "Uncle".

Cheng Dazhong's face showed joy.

"It would be even better." Cheng Dazhong bowed to Qin Zhen again, "I would like to thank the prince for the marshal."

This was the first time Cheng Dazhong took the initiative to talk to Qin Zhen after he came. He was grateful to Qin Zhen. Cheng Dazhong's expression and tone were not fake at all. He was really grateful to Qin Zhen.

Even if Cheng Dazhong stood completely from Qi Younian's position, he could not help but be impressed.

Cheng Dazhong came back this time, just like before. He came and went in a hurry and could not stay for a long time. He went to the palace first, and then spoke in front of the Majesty and the wife before coming to Prince An's mansion.

Ji Xiaotang was preparing something and wanted to paint a portrait of Qin Xuan, so Qin Zhen ordered someone to prepare a banquet and personally entertain Cheng Dazhong.

According to Cheng Dazhong's rank, Qin Zhen would not have been able to treat him like this. However, Cheng Dazhong was Qi Younian's envoy and knew better than anyone else about the situation in Zhenshanguan. Qin Zhen was willing to treat him kindly, and also wanted to know more about the situation in the north from him.

After Ji Xiaotang painted the image of Qin Xuan, Qin Zhen also brought Cheng Dazhong back.

Ji Xiaotang asked Cheng Dazhong to collect the scroll. He also asked Cheng Dazhong to come forward and take a good look at Qin Xuan for Qi Younian.

Qin Xuan is indeed a brave and not afraid of life. Although he met Cheng Dazhong for the first time, he was not afraid of the murderous aura that Cheng Dazhong was contaminated by his years of fighting on the battlefield.

He also extended a fat hand to Cheng Dazhong.

Qin Xuan was not afraid of Cheng Dazhong. Cheng Dazhong saw such a fat and soft little guy, but was at a loss. Seeing Xuan'er reaching out to him, he was even more shocked. The more he didn't know what to do.

As before, Cheng Dazhong must have been bathed and changed his clothes carefully when he came to Ji Xiaotang.

"Xuaner seems to like Qianhu very much." Ji Xiaotang said with a smile, "I heard that Qianhu is also the father of two children, so why not hug Xuan'er."

Cheng Dazhong was a little nervous, but this cute little guy was in front of him, and he really couldn't refuse this proposal.

Cheng Dazhong rubbed his hand on the clothes twice. Then he reached out and took Qin Xuan and hugged him in his arms. He looked a little clumsy and cautious, as if he was holding the child a few hundred pounds.

Qin Xuan seemed to not feel Cheng Dazhong's care at all. He waved his arms happily, kicked his two short legs, and shouted happily in his mouth.

Cheng Dazhong's forehead was sweating, but his eyes were soft, not like the tiger on the battlefield that seemed to be able to eat people, but like the most gentle old cow in the countryside.

Ji Xiaotang smiled secretly, and while asking someone to take Qin Xuan over and hug him.

Cheng Dazhong seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but his eyes and attitude became more eager.

"The spirit of the young prince Longma will be limitless in the future."

"Thank you for the auspicious words of Qianhu." Ji Xiaotang said with a smile.

Cheng Dazhong'e completed the mission assigned by Qi Younian, and his experience in Prince An's Mansion was also very pleasant, so he was about to say goodbye to Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang.

Qin Zhen suddenly stretched out his hand to Ji Xiaotang and signaled him to hug Xuan'er, but he secretly winked at Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang was secretly surprised and stopped Cheng Dazhong.

"Did Qianhu hide something from me? Zhenshanguan is afraid that it is not as peaceful as you said. Did something big happen?" When asked this, Qin Zhen had beaten all the people serving in the room, leaving only one Madam Cheng and one Wang Ruhai.

Cheng Dazhong was also surprised, but did not deny it immediately.

Ji Xiaotang knew that something must have happened to Zhenshan Pass, and it was not as simple as harassing the Northern Barbarians' small troops.

"There are no outsiders here. No matter what happens, it's okay to tell me and the prince. If we can do something, it would be even better. Ayou is in Zhenshanguan, and we all know his difficulties. Although we can't go to Zhenshanguan to help him, we are always standing behind him." Ji Xiaotang said very sincerely.

Cheng Dazhong pondered for a moment, and his eyes seemed to subconsciously look at Qin Zhen.

Although he was impressed by Qin Zhen's demeanor, he could not trust Qin Zhen as much as he trusted Ji Xiaotang.

"It's okay to say thousands of households. The prince and I have the same thoughts." Ji Xiaotang can guarantee Qin Zhen. No matter what Cheng Dazhong said, Qin Zhen will stand on the same front with her.

"... When I came back, the marshal once told his subordinates that it would be okay not to say that. But if the princess must know, the marshal said that I told the princess, it would be okay." Cheng Dazhong then spoke. Obviously, many of these words were taught to him by Qi Younian.

"It was indeed a matter of trouble in Zhenshanguan, but in the eyes of the marshal, it was not a big deal."

Speaking like this, Qi Younian's eyes are not a big deal. Perhaps it is a big deal if someone else looks at it.

Ji Xiaotang did not urge Cheng Dazhong, but patiently asked Cheng Dazhong to slowly tell her the matter.

...

When Cheng Dazhong was sent out of the mansion, Ji Xiaotang sat in the room on Xichun Hall, but his mood did not calm down for a long time.

"I really didn't expect that such a thing would happen no matter what." After a while, Ji Xiaotang let out a breath, lowered his voice and said to Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen also frowned and was thinking about the same thing as Ji Xiaotang.

"I never expected it." Qin Zhen nodded after hearing Ji Xiaotang's words, with a deep expression. "In the past, she just thought she was spoiled and was willful in doing things. But she didn't expect that she could do such a ruthless thing, which was simply for the descendants of the Qin family!"

"I'm afraid, the Empress Dowager did not expect such a thing to happen." Ji Xiaotang mentioned Empress Dowager Han.

Empress Dowager Han has always been worried that Changning would not live well in the Northern Barbarians, suffer hardships, and even be bullied by the Northern Barbarians. She must have never expected that Changning would hate her so deeply that she would be in the same circle with the Northern Barbarians and would do such a thing with the Northern Barbarians.

"I agree with Ayou's decision on this matter. It's better to keep it confidential. Don't let the empress dowager know, nor do you let the Chinese people know." Qin Zhen thought for a while, and Ji Xiaotang said.

"I think so too. If I told the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager would not blame Changning, but would instead take his anger on others. And since Changning has already..., it will be useless to let everyone know." Ji Xiaotang nodded and agreed to Qin Zhen's decision.

"Xiaotang, do you know about this? Prince Su's Mansion?" Qin Zhen suddenly asked Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang nodded without hesitation.

"Even if Ayou doesn't tell us this time, the prince should be able to detect it later. The same is true for Prince Su's mansion." Even if Qi Younian didn't tell Qin Lin this time, with Qin Lin's ability and attention to Zhenshanguan, he will know sooner or later.

In this way, Empress Dowager Han can hide it.

"In this way, let's just think that nothing is gone." Qin Zhen sighed softly.

"We can think that nothing happened, but I am still worried that this matter can't be hidden for too long." Ji Xiaotang was a little worried.

She believed that King Su Qinlin should have the same idea as theirs and would not reveal the matter. However, they could keep it secret, but there was also the Beiman side.

Although this incident is difficult to speak for the Beiman, it is just about telling the truth.

"Xiaotang, are you worried that the Northern Barbarians will make trouble with this?" Qin Zhen immediately understood what Ji Xiaotang meant.

Ji Xiaotang nodded slightly.

If the Beimans wanted to make trouble with this, they really had no good way to stop them. If they could not stop them in advance, they could only choose to deal with them.

"The soldiers come and the generals block them, and the water comes and the soil comes and they cannot be satisfied." Qin Zhen was full of momentum.

"The prince is right."

...

In a blink of an eye, winter is coming, and it is drizzling in the capital. Spring rain is as precious as oil. Although the rain is light, it brings people great pleasure and hope.

In the afternoon, the rain became lighter, but it did not stop.

The air is fresh and moist, and the view is light green. Ji Xiaotang likes this kind of spring scenery very much. Just as Xuan'er ate and slept, Ji Xiaotang simply wrapped the little guy in a quilt, carried him out of the upper house in person, and stood in the corridor to enjoy the early spring rain scene.

This was the first time Xuan'er saw the rain. He opened his eyes wide in surprise, with his black eyes shining brightly, full of surprise. The little guy was still not honest in Ji Xiaotang's arms. While screaming, he stretched out his little hand hard, as if he wanted to grab the falling raindrops.

Madam Cheng brought a group of maids to serve next to her, and then teased the various parrots in the bird cage under the corridor. The starlings came to make Qin Xuan happy.

Just as he was having fun, Qin Zhen walked back from outside.

In this rain, Qin Zhen didn't hold an umbrella at all, and just walked leisurely. However, at the sight of Ji Xiaotang holding Xuan'er under the corridor, Qin Zhen immediately accelerated his pace, and the smile on his face almost overflowed.

"Look at Xuan'er, who is back?" Ji Xiaotang hurriedly pointed at Qin Zhen and showed it to Qin Xuan.

When Qin Xuan saw Qin Zhen, his little legs kicked twice more happily, and his mouth was screaming. His little hands stopped catching raindrops, but instead reached in the direction of Qin Zhen.

He recognized Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen walked to Ji Xiaotang and saw his son's appearance, he became happier and happier, so he took Qin Xuan from Ji Xiaotang's arms.

Qin Xuan got into Qin Zhen's arms and happily twisted his chubby little body. His two little hands patted Qin Zhen's face. Ji Xiaotang held back his laughter. This was Qin Xuan's way of showing closeness. Qin Zhen was slapped by his son, and then opened his mouth and bit the little guy's chubby little hand.

Qin Xuan shouted, and the two of them became a mess. When Qin Zhen let go of his mouth, Qin Xuan giggled.

"What's wrong with Master Han coming today?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen arrived at Duofuxuan just now and met Master Han and said to Master Han for the past half a day.

"Dingzhou in the south is a little unstable, and the court officials have different opinions. Some say they want to fight against the enemy, and some say they want to Zhao'an. My uncle came to me to discuss this matter with me and asked me what I mean. If I want to fight against the enemy, which military officer will be sent. If I want to fight against the enemy, which civil servant will be safe." Han Ge Lao came to ask Qin Zhen's opinion, and it would be easier to speak at tomorrow's dynasty meeting.

Ji Xiaotang's mouth smiled.

These days, Mr. Han Ge Lao has got closer and closer to Prince An's mansion. Even Qin Zhen has slightly untied the knot with Mr. Han Ge Lao, and can naturally call Mr. Han Ge Lao his uncle.

Such a transformation is not a one-day achievement, and Ji Xiaotang dared not take full advantage. Speaking of which, a large part of it is Xuan'er's contribution.

A few days after Xuan'er was full moon, Master Han took the excuse to come to the door. Ji Xiaotang was the leader and invited Master Han to the Sinchun Hall and met Qin Xuan.

Ji Xiaotang was willing to let Xuan'er get close to Mr. Han Ge, and in front of Mr. Han Ge, he taught Xuan'er to call Uncle Han Ge. Mr. Han Ge was so happy that he could hardly stop laughing at the time, and then he came to Prince An's mansion to diligently.
