Chapter 277 I Miss You So Much, Wife
While the two brothers were bickering, they rushed all the way back to Prince Qi's palace. Li Chengxiu quickly jumped off his horse and threw the reins to his personal attendant.
"Li Song, keep an eye on the Fifth Prince. Don't let this ignorant fellow enter the palace and disturb the reunion of my family."
"yes!"
"Come on, Fourth Brother, I'm a guest. What's wrong with you asking me to go in and have a drink of water? Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, please turn around and look at me, Fourth Brother!"
No matter how Li Jingxiu ran around, he was still firmly stopped by Li Song at the gatehouse. He could only watch his fourth brother, who had no brotherly love at all, rush into the Prince of Qi's Mansion in a very cool manner.
Main courtyard.
"Princess, our prince is back!"
Hongxiu received the news and happily ran back to her master to report. Although she was not slow, Li Chengxiu, who was suffering from longing for his wife, was even faster in rushing to his wife's side.
"Wife, I'm back!"
A day without seeing each other feels like three years. Counting on my fingers and rounding it up, they haven't seen each other for decades. Must my wife miss me to death?
He rushed into the house happily and hugged his wife who had just stood up from the chair, grinning from ear to ear.
"Long time no see, my wife, did you miss me? Are you surprised and happy to see me come back today? I tell you, I really miss you so much, and I also miss the little guy in your belly.
Li Laosan has no desire to be a human being anymore. He just treats me like a living beast of burden and uses me like a living beast. He doesn't feel sorry for the suffering of my wife and children at all!
Wife, are you having a good time at home alone? Do you miss me? I really miss you~~~"
The last sentence had a long tail and a familiar sense of inconsistency as it rushed towards Jiang Wan.
I couldn't help but reach out and pat the man's shoulder. I was happy, of course, but I didn't have the same overwhelming emotion as the other person who had experienced life and death.
"My child and I miss you too. I've been doing fine lately, so there's no need to worry. I even went to the palace to have lunch with my mother the day before yesterday, but I didn't go to the East Palace.
How come you have time to come back today?
Let go of my hand, sit down and have a good chat."
With a force of his claws, he tore the man off his body and pressed him onto a chair beside the table. Jiang Wan then quickly called his men.
"Hongxiu, have someone bring over some cold tea. Meanwhile, go to the main kitchen and tell your sister Hongzhu to order an extra portion of the crystal cake she made. Tell her that the prince has returned and asked her to take care of the dinner arrangements."
"Hey, I'll go right away!"
Hongxiu took the teacup from the little maid and presented it to her master, then bowed respectfully and left.
Jiang Wan pushed the tea towards Li Chengxiu.
"Hurry up and drink some water to calm down. Look at you, your face is red and sweaty. Just go home. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Hehehe, am I not homesick?"
He picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, then picked up the teapot and drank three cups in a row. Only after his thirst was completely quenched did he put down the cup, frowned, turned his head and looked around.
"It's so hot out here, wife, why don't you put an ice basin in the house? What if you get too hot?"
"Not bad."
Jiang Wan smiled and touched her belly.
"Isn't this because you have a child? Uncle Sun warned me when he took my pulse last time, saying that I was probably too fond of cold things when I was young, and my health wasn't good. It's better to use less cold things now."
"What's wrong?
Are you feeling unwell?"
Li Chengxiu immediately sat up straight with a nervous look on his face.
"How about I take you to see Uncle Yunyue right now? He's quite skilled in medicine..."
"No need, they are just minor problems. You just need to take care of them yourself. The child and I are fine, don't worry about it."
Before Li Chengxiu could finish his words, his wife, who was careless, waved her hand and interrupted him.
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, why would the prince be willing to let you out of the palace today?"
"How could he let me go? I was just lucky today and got some help from Lao Wu, so I managed to escape."
The unlucky guy whose face was touched by the question snorted and pouted angrily.
"Sure enough, what those scholars said is true. There must be something hateful about every pitiful person in this world!
I helped him out of good intentions, but he had the nerve to be so ruthless and treated me like a free animal!
Wife, look at my face now."
He pointed bitterly at the two circles of blue under his eyes. The resentment in His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi's eyes was enough to materialize.
"During this period, it's really just like what you said, I get up earlier than the chickens and go to bed later than the dogs!
I have never cared so much about my own fiefdom.
I really can't stand it anymore, wife, how about we run away?"
He reached out and fondled the poor little dog's head. Family matters matter to family. Li Chengxiu wasn't the type to be a scholar. It would be a miracle if he wasn't suffering from being forced into this pile of memorials!
Jiang Wan sighed and agreed.
"Alright. Jiang Han's marriage has been put on hold for now, so there's really nothing for us to do in the capital. If you really want to return to Dongling Mansion, then find an opportunity to resign from our father, the emperor, and our mother.
But you just said that you benefited from Lao Wu? When did he come back to Beijing?
"Oh, don't mention it."
Stretching out his claws and holding the soft hand in his palm, Li Chengxiu not only admired his wife but also found time to chat with her.
"Didn't he hear that our second son's marriage was off? This guy made that brat so happy! He rode back to the city day and night, fearing that someone else would snatch him away first.
Well, it does look like a pitiful person.
He followed me all the way from the palace, and just now when he was outside the gate, he was begging me to speak well of him. I want to see if you can give him a word to help him get together."
I have to say, Li Laosi's brain has really grown with age, and this is all subtly hinting at something.
Jiang Wan slapped him angrily.
"Three days of absence is enough to make you look at someone with new eyes. You've really come a long way, Li Chengxiu. You've even learned to talk to me and set traps. This shows how much your brother, the prince, has worked hard and made great contributions during this period!"
"Wife, you are wronging me to death. How dare I act so frivolously in front of you? This is all based on facts and I say what I mean. I am not lying at all.
Lao Wu really followed me all the way back, and now he's standing outside our gate, acting like a scoundrel and refusing to leave! But I'm so sensible that I asked Li Song and the others to stop him from coming in, so as not to upset my wife."
When you quibble with a flattering smile, it makes the quibble sound a little more shallow and reasonable.
The Princess of Qi stared at the King of Qi speechlessly.
"Why are you blocking him outside? If someone outside sees us, won't they think there's a feud between Prince Qi and the Fifth Prince?"
