Huo Qijing nodded.
Yan Shiwei was stunned: "You already know?"
Huo Qijing said: "Yes."
Yan Shiwei was rarely angry: "Can you say a few more words!"
"I know," Huo Qijing said calmly, "After my third brother Ling came to visit, Yue'er asked the emperor for confirmation and then wrote to me and told me about it." He paused, "I received another letter from her yesterday, and she also told me about your family's affairs."
Yan Shiwei stretched out his hand without any general's dignity: "Can you show it to me?"
Huo Qijing looked at him, then actually took it out and showed it to him.
Tang Shiyue's handwriting is pretty good now, and her tone is soft and romantic. Moreover, when she talks about things, she always leaves out details and describes them vividly, which makes people feel more immersive than what Yan Shirui writes.
Anyway, the way Yan Shiwei looked at it, he felt that the old princess was really hateful. Even he himself felt that she brought it upon herself and did not deserve sympathy.
Moreover, Tang Shiyue also said that her biological father, Yan Chengyuan, was very similar to Huo Qijing. Both of them were the kind of people who were calm and composed, and who remained calm even when faced with a catastrophe. This made people feel very distressed.
...
...
Then I said you are so lucky to have a considerate fairy like me as your wife...
In short, it is easy to feel what kind of person she is by reading her letters.
Yan Shiwei felt softened when he saw this.
It was not until he had finished reading for a while that he folded the letter and returned it to Huo Qijing reluctantly.
He asked him, "How did you two meet?"
Huo Qijing told him, and Yan Shiwei listened attentively.
Finally, he said softly: "Yueyue... when she was a child, she was very well-behaved, very cute, and a happy child who loved to laugh. You don't know, when she got into trouble... I really felt like my heart was being ripped out..."
Huo Qijing nodded.
Looking at his calm expression, Yan Shiwei remembered what she said in the letter, that he looked like his father.
Yan Shiwei couldn't help but laugh.
He said, "After the Chinese New Year, I will take a leave and go back to see her. Do you want to come with me?"
"No need," Huo Qijing said, "She promised me that she would come to see me after her brother passed the palace examination."
Seeing his calm face, Yan Shiwei suddenly felt unhappy: "What if she doesn't come? My sister is not the same as she was back then."
Huo Qijing looked at him calmly: "No matter how high Ayue flies or how far she goes, she will never break her promise to me."
On the one hand, Yan Shiwei felt that "my sister really has a heart of gold" and on the other hand, he wanted to provoke him: "But even if she wants to leave, the emperor may not agree. The emperor loves her so much, how could he be willing to let her come to Xuzhou?"
Huo Qijing fell silent.
Yan Shiwei wondered if he was being too unkind, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well... let's talk about it later, maybe he'll be here."
Huo Qijing came out and became silent.
He put his hands behind his back and looked at the moon hanging in the sky for a long time.
In my ear, I seemed to hear the drunk little cat muttering again: "A Jing, you are so beautiful, and your eyes are the most beautiful!"
"What a shame! Why don't you grow older?"
"If you were an uncle, I would marry you."
The corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he touched the beard that had just begun to grow on his lips: "Ayue, I'm old, really..."
When I haven't seen you, I've aged quite fast. Now I'm old enough to get married.
He went back and spread out the paper and wrote a letter to Tang Shiyue, saying: Your elder brother called me over today and asked about you. He also said that you would not come to see me after the New Year. Even if you wanted to come, the emperor would not let you come... I think what he said makes sense. The emperor may be reluctant to call you.
But I still hope you can come. I am the town commander now and can come and go freely in the barracks. If you come, I can see you every day and I don’t have to rely solely on letters to know what you are doing.
She wrote to him very casually, sometimes writing two letters a day, and sometimes not writing at all for several days.
But whether happy or sad, surprised or unexpected, even if she was hurt, she never hid it from him.
She felt that instead of letting him find out from other people, it would be better for her to tell him everything directly. He was always broad-minded and capable of handling things. Only if he understood everything and knew what kind of life she was living, he would feel at ease.
But on his side, he always writes a paragraph whenever he has time, and writes a paragraph whenever he has time, but if there are no unexpected events, he will send a letter back within the standard five days.
This time too.
The letter was written in typical Huo Qijing style, rarely mentioning longing, but every word and sentence was filled with heavy longing.
Tang Shiyue felt sad watching this.
Then she began to think seriously about how she should tell Emperor Ming Yandi to go to Xuzhou after the palace examination.
Upon learning of this, Emperor Ming Yan said: "Don't even think about it! This conscienceless little bastard!"
He turned around and asked Gu Jiuxing: "What's the matter with that rumor?"
Gu Jiuxing was sweating profusely: "I haven't found out where it came from yet, but... everyone says that the young prince is a blessed lady, and is blessed to the outsiders and the world, but it's just... a little unlucky..."
Emperor Ming Yan slammed the table and said, "Why are you hesitating? Speak!"
Gu Jiuxing knelt down quickly: "They all said that the emperor regarded her as his daughter, but when the third prince got into trouble, Commander Yan wanted to acknowledge her as his relative. But before he did, Prince An's Mansion asked her to turn the world upside down. Isn't this..."
Emperor Ming Yan sneered repeatedly: "These people really deserve to die!"
He frowned slightly and ordered Gu Jiuxing: "Stay away from Yue'er and call Xu Qing to me."
Gu Jiuxing obeyed the order and sent a message to Ding Xiaoyan. Xu Wenqu knew what was going on, so when he came to see the emperor, he brought the completed volume of "The Biography of Empress Fu".
In order to cater to the tastes of the common people, it is written in very colloquial language, but the writing is vivid and interesting.
Emperor Ming Yan glanced through it, nodded, and said, "Not bad."
He thought for a moment and said: "Let's put this aside for now. Just pick out the matter of vaccination and write it separately." At the same time, he asked someone to bring him pen and paper.
Xu Wenqu didn't even ask him what he was going to do, he just picked up the pen and started writing without hesitation.
It only gives a brief introduction at the beginning, and then starts with the incident of being struck by lightning and ends with being named Lord of the County, turning the matter of smallpox vaccination into a complete short story.
Emperor Mingyan nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, you can go back first."
Xu Wenqu bowed and left.
Emperor Mingyan praised him: "This man is smart and talented, and he knows when to advance and when to retreat. He is rare!"
Gu Jiuxing bowed, knowing that this person had a place in the king's heart, and no matter what happened in the future, he would definitely become a Jinshi.
Emperor Ming Yan then passed the matter down and asked people to find a few storytellers to preach the story in the restaurant.
And at the same time.
Because Linlang and others knew Tang Shiyue's personality very well, they told Tang Shiyue immediately after hearing the rumor.
It happened that Deshan Garden was about to open, so Meng Dan came along and carefully asked whether he should stay out of the spotlight.
Tang Shiyue looked at him as if he were a piece of rotten wood.
Meng Dansui was bewildered and asked, "Master Tang?"
Tang Shiyue said to him, "Black and red are also red, do you understand? No matter what rumors say about me, they are all rare popularity, do you understand? All the curiosity of all those who heard the rumors will become their motivation to enter Deshan Garden! This is silver, do you know? I didn't do anything, but I have such popularity. This is simply God's reward. Why are you avoiding it? Do you have a grudge against silver and avoid it?"
"Speak properly!" Meng Min patted her on the back gently, and said, "Call me cousin!"
