Chapter 571 Leaning on the Wooden Door and Waiting for Him

This faint smile is no longer that dark smile.

Instead, he regained his sunny and handsome smile, exuding a mature and stable atmosphere.

So, surrounded by the servants, the two arrived at the courtyard of the fifth princess.

After entering the courtyard, the fifth princess dispatched all the servants.

Like an ordinary woman, she poured him a cup of tea herself.

Wu Ge, who was originally sitting in the room, looked at the cup held by the little woman, and immediately got up, taking the cup in his hand.

"You don't have to be so troublesome, I can just pour it myself in the future."

As he spoke, he took a sip of his tea meaningfully.

The fifth princess stood in the middle of the room somewhat cautiously, hesitant to speak.

She is like a little girl who just fell in love. When she sees the boy she loves, her heart beats wildly.

I want to get close to him, but I am afraid that I will not be reserved enough.

"I heard people say that ordinary women will wait for their husbands to come back, then pour tea for him, relieve the fatigue of the day, and change their clothes."

Having said that, the fifth princess paused for a moment.

A few walked up to the man quickly, looking at their toes.

"So I want to ask you, do you want to eat first, or take a bath and rest for a while, so that I can let the servant prepare."

If he wants to eat first, let the kitchen prepare it.

If he wanted to rest, he would naturally ask the servant to prepare water and wait for him to take a bath.

As soon as these words came out, Wuge who was drinking tea immediately choked.

The fifth princess anxiously asked: "Is it important? I'll call the doctor."

"Don't." Wuge clenched his fists and coughed violently a few times.

After he calmed down, he got up and wrapped the woman in his arms.

He poked the woman's smooth forehead with his index finger, and said, "Yuwei, you are a princess, you don't have to treat me like this, do you understand?"

"But you are fighting in such a difficult environment, and we are rarely together at ordinary times. I just want to lean in your arms and be an ordinary woman."

She leaned her head actively in his arms, full of attachment.

He is the commander of the capital and usually needs to lead troops.

From time to time, there are heavy tasks that need to be carried out.

Occasionally, he will go to far places and perform difficult tasks.

It will be a year or so, or even several years after leaving, life and death are uncertain.

She never regretted falling in love with such a man.

Even, he is great in her heart.

Therefore, she will love him vigorously.

To put it more seriously, love to death is not an exaggeration.

This time, she waited for him for a long time.

Because she knew that this would be a test between them.

If he unfortunately died in the south, she really didn't know what to do in her next life.

But if he comes back, everything will be a new beginning.

In the future, no one can stop their previous love.

"But it's only been two months since you gave birth, and your body is recovering. I don't want you to be so tired. Besides, you are a princess, we can't go beyond the rules."

"What's the matter, anyway, only the two of us know, do you know that this year, I have been secretly swearing that as long as you come back, I will treat you like an ordinary woman."

The fifth princess raised her head, and looked at the boy in front of her with that kind of obedient eyes.

They always get together less and leave more, when they are by their side, they have to do their best to love crazily, so there are so many rules.

Moreover, she is a princess, not a prince, so she doesn't have to interfere with the affairs of the court.

Wu Ge is a normal man, and his heart warms when he hears such gentle and considerate words from his beloved.

Thinking of her asking him whether to eat or take a bath first, he seemed to be indifferent and said: "Then let's take a bath first."

"Okay, I'll ask the servants to prepare water, and by the way, ask them to bring Big Ge to you. You haven't seen her yet, and she looks a lot like you."

"No, the child is delicate, and I didn't take a bath, so I smoked her later." In fact, he had already taken a bath at the fourth master's residence yesterday.

It's just that drinking is indispensable for talking all night long, and the smell of alcohol has not dissipated from my body.

The fifth princess shrugged her nose and really sniffed in front of the man.

"Aren't you afraid of fuming me?"

Having said that, she still called the servant to prepare water.

After a while, the servant prepared the water and went out, closing the door behind him.

For a while, the inner room was filled with mist.

The fifth princess raised her hand to change the boy's clothes.

She had always been served by slaves, and this was the first time she served a man changing clothes and washing his hands. Her movements were clumsy and slow.

Wuge just looked at her clumsy appearance, with doting and gentle eyes, "Forget it, I'll do it myself."

After about a stick of incense, Wuge finished his bath, and the fifth princess changed into a clean black undershirt for him.

At this moment, the boy carefully looked at the woman in front of him.

She looks more beautiful than last year.

Curved willow eyebrows, a pair of clear and bright eyes, and a creamy oval face.

"Okay." The fifth princess straightened the wrinkles on the young man's shoulders, "You must be very tired these days, so take a rest first, and I'll let my servant cook a table of delicious dishes later, and then I'll wake you up for dinner. "

After speaking, she turned around and was about to leave.

But as soon as she turned around, she was imprisoned in the arms of the boy...... ................................................... .........

Compared with the loving young couple who were newly married by Xiao Biesheng, Tong Guowei and Long Kedo, father and son, chatted from the afternoon until late at night.

As early as the next court, Tong Guowei and Long Kedo's eyes hinted.

The father and son already have a good tacit understanding, just one look is enough.

At this moment, two men were drinking and chatting at Tong Guowei's house.

Because of Li Sier's relationship, their father-son relationship is not as good as before.

But in the end it is the biological father and son, the bones are broken and the tendons are still connected.

You can't completely cut off contact just because of a woman.

It was a dark room with the door closed tightly, and a few faint oil lamps were placed in the room.

In front of them, there were peanuts, roast duck, beef liver, etc., all kinds of appetizers.

"Ama, I really can't figure it out. The eighth master is gone, and you still hold him as a hot bed. Isn't this shooting yourself in the foot?" Long Kedo asked puzzled.

He was already a middle-aged man.

Tong Guowei is his father, already an old man with gray beard.

Tong Guowei smiled lightly, and said: "Today, when I recommend Ba Ye, I have considered all aspects. Once Ba Ye touched the scales of Long Live Lord, I wanted to add fuel to the fire, so I simply praised Ba Ye to death."

"Secondly..." Tong Guowei took a sip of wine and continued: "Even though Ba Ye was dismissed, his power should not be underestimated. From the perspective of the party, it seems that I would rather take the risk of offending the Long Live Lord, and insist on supporting the Eighth Lord."

"But you have offended Lord Long Live, what should you do?"

"Of course I still have a third thought. If the emperor's heart softens for a moment and he truly obeys the public's will, making Ba Ye the crown prince and asking Ba Ye to take the throne in the future, then I have made great contributions."

After hearing these words, Longkodo's eyes flashed with surprise and admiration.

It's just a small matter, and Tong Guowei has considered all aspects.

This is no offense at either end, and the family is safe.

Long Kedo nodded thoughtfully, and said: "But you are the uncle of the Lord Long Live, and the father-in-law of the Lord Long Live, so why bother you. Besides, since the death of Concubine Wen Xi, Concubine Xian Gui has always been the head of the harem , what else do you have to be afraid of?"

Tong Guowei's sister, Kangxi's biological mother, died too early.

She left within a few years of Kangxi's accession to the throne.

Not only that, Tong Guowei is also the father of the late Queen Tong Jia.

This queen is also unlucky, so she left early.

Fortunately, Tong Guowei also has a concubine, who is now a noble concubine in the palace.

In the harem of the Forbidden City, the reason why there are so many Tong Jias as empresses and concubines.

It is because the "Tong Jia" clan has fully supported the Aixinjueluo family since the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji, was in power.

He also married the royal family of Aixinjueluo for generations.

This made the "Tong Jia" family the most prominent family of relatives in the Qing Dynasty.

There are hundreds of Tong Jia's family members who are officials in the capital alone.

There are nearly 600 other local officials.

How many people are there in total in a family? It can be said that almost all of the Tong Jia family became officials as long as they were men.

In Tong Guowei's generation, everyone actually helped him to take the title of "Tong Banchao".

It means that half of the entire court belongs to the Tong Jia family.

This is the family benefit brought by marriage.

However, the emperor also needs a loyal relative to help him fight and manage the country.

So this kind of marriage can be regarded as benefiting each other.

There are very few true feelings in it.

After a long time, Tong Guowei sighed and said: "Since ancient times, the relatives of the royal family have been very beautiful in the eyes of others, but there are very few who can really spend their old age safely. There are a lot of people who end up miserable, so let's say... .. Be careful sailing for thousands of years."

"Ama is worthy of being an important minister in the court, with senior qualifications, and my son really admires it." Longkodo said sincerely.

"There's no qualifications to speak of, it's just that I have experienced more and seen more things."

Tong Guowei stroked his gray beard, and said hoarsely, "I'm old and useless, so I called you here today, and I want you to go to the Long Live Lord tomorrow and sue me."

"What?" Long Kedo, who was picking up peanuts, was so frightened that his chopsticks fell on the table, and the peanuts rolled to the ground.

Where did he still have the mood to drink, he knelt down in the middle of the room, very puzzled and said: "Ama, I can listen to you for everything else, but this is my bottom line."

Tong Guowei smiled lightly, drank a glass of wine freely, and asked lightly, "Why?"

"I am able to achieve what I am today, all thanks to Ama's cultivation and promotion. I can't do this kind of thing..."

"Since this is the case, then you have to listen to me even more. Yu Qing, you are my son, otherwise you will be unfilial. Yu Li, you were cultivated by me. You are just protecting that concubine Li Si'er on weekdays. But in this matter, you must listen to me."

Tong Guowei put the cup heavily on the table, making a dull wooden sound.

"No, you are Tong Banchao who dominates the government and the people. Why did you make such a bad move? Isn't this letting your son... push you into the fire pit?"

"It's so ignorant. Others deliberately praise me, and you also say that I am Tong Banchao. You want me to kill me, don't you!"

"Son doesn't dare." Longkodo said.

"In this court, no one will use anyone who is not loyal enough. Now that I have offended the Lord Long Live, and the Eighth Master has nothing to do, I can only let you sue the imperial court, which can also give you a better future." .”

Longkodo: "..."

While Tong Guowei was talking, the topic changed.

Said: "Although you are not Si Ye's real uncle, but because of Empress Tong Jia, there is a relationship there. From now on, you can just burn Si Ye's cold stove."

Longkodo was startled, and asked in surprise: "The fourth master has never had the idea of ​​competing for the reserve, why did Ama ask me to assist him?"

"What I tell you to do, you just do it according to me, there is so much nonsense." Tong Guowei waved his hand impatiently, and said: "Don't come to me in the future, just remember two points, unconditional Support fourth master."

"Another point."

"Another point, you may not listen to what I said, anyway, if you dote on Li Si'er so much again, there will be a day when you regret it."

Longkodo paused slightly. The family reminded him more than once about Li Si'er, but he just didn't listen.

Even now, he chooses to ignore the question.

He just asked: "Ama, you have worked hard for the Qing Dynasty all your life, but in the end you have to rely on this method to achieve completeness. Don't you regret it?"

"I have nothing to regret. I have enjoyed the infinite glory brought by the officialdom in this life, and I have seen through the so-called official and vulgar state system. I don't have much feeling for the high halls and mansions. In this world... whether it is Good or bad, what you want is very simple, just live well." Tong Guowei said calmly.

From Tong Guowei's words, Longkodo heard the tone of returning to the mountains and forests and being tired of officialdom.

He knelt on the spot and thought for a long time.

After a long time, he said: "Ama, please allow me to think about it."

After speaking, he cupped his hands and left.

Back at the mansion, Longkoduo just returned to the front yard, and saw Li Si'er holding a lantern, leaning on the wooden door and waiting for him.

Li Si'er was wearing an orange-red Hanfu with a tall pearl emerald collar.

A head of black hair is raised high, and the whole head is covered with tin, which is inlaid with various gemstones and dots.

The whole person looks like a jewel, a proper lady of the Qing Dynasty.

"Master is back." Li Si'er stepped forward to greet him with a smile.

Long Kedo gave a faint "hmm" and stepped into the hall.

Seeing the man's indifferent attitude, Li Si'er was a little displeased.

But he still followed Long Kedo into the house.

If she was waiting for him at the door on weekdays, Longkodo would definitely help her up with his own hands.

She dressed up specially today, but he actually treats her like air, there must be something wrong!

No matter how pungent as Li Si'er is, he still depends on men to survive.

Usually when she is unreasonable, she mostly picks when Longkodo is in a good mood.

Seeing that Longkoduo was upset now, she naturally dismissed the servants and poured tea for Longkoduo with a face.

Li Si'er sat down beside him after serving the tea.
