As the day for the army to return to Beijing approaches, Wen Wan becomes increasingly busy. Wen Wan is so busy that she can't even share three meals a day with her two sons.
Wen Wan is so busy, and Mingjin is the first to be dissatisfied. With Ling following Wen Wan all day long, Mingjin became even more dissatisfied: "Brother, why can my cousin be with mother, but we can't." In the past, mother only cherished them and stayed with them. But it's different now. How come so many things change when you go out?
Mingrui couldn¡¯t tell Mingjin that it was for their own good that her mother didn¡¯t take them to govern. But Mingjin couldn't understand what he said.
Seeing that Mingrui didn't speak, Mingjin became more and more dissatisfied: "Why can cousin Ling do it but we can't? No, brother, we will go with mother tomorrow."
Mingrui touched his forehead with a headache. In desperation, he told Wen Wan about this matter. Wen Wan thought for a while but didn't know what to say to Mingjin, so she finally mentioned it to Mr. Fang. Wen Wan is worried that someone like her, who does not have strong views on hierarchy, will become more confused the more she talks to Mingjin. At that time, if Mingjin loses his sense of hierarchy, he will harm his son. It would be better to let Mr. Fang talk to Mingjin.
I don¡¯t know how Mr. Fang explained it to Jin, but after hearing this, Ming Jinzhi didn¡¯t ask Wen Wan to follow him. But I am still dissatisfied. We are all in the same home, but there is no such thing as Wenwan.
Wen Wan had no choice but to comfort Mingjin and said, "When mother is busy for a while, I will make you the pastries you like to eat every day. Do you agree?"
Mingjin agreed, but a new problem came again. Mingjin asked the emperor every day when his uncle would come back and when his father would come back. Mother will not be busy when the emperor's uncle comes back. Father comes back. This is something he has been looking forward to for many years.
Mingjin always asks Wen Wan every time, "Mom, when will dad return to the capital? Why hasn't he come back yet? When will mom come back!"
Wen Wan is very busy every day, and when faced with the same anxious Mingjin, Wen Wan sometimes becomes impatient. Who can resist asking three times a day. Wen Wan's ears are also getting calluses. In addition to the many things that had happened before, Wen Wan was patient and patient, so she did not scold Mingjin: "Son, your father will be back in three days. Then you can do whatever you want."
Mingjin looked at her mother's helpless look, lowered her head in grievance and sobbed in a low voice. Mingrui smiled and said, "Mom, my brother also wants to see his father as soon as possible." Mingrui also persuaded Mingjin many times in private, but to no avail. Counseling could not calm Mingjin's anxiety at all.
Wen Wan looked at the aggrieved Ming Jin and held Ming Jin in her arms: "Be good, your father will be able to return to the capital soon. If you keep patiently, he will be there soon." After a pause, he said guiltily: " It¡¯s all my mother¡¯s fault. She¡¯s been really busy recently. When your uncle the emperor comes back, she will not be so busy with you.¡± After all, they are still your parents. incompetent. The couple owes a lot to their two children.
Mingjin is not ignorant, it¡¯s just that she misses her father every day when she can¡¯t see Wenwan. After hearing Wen Wan's words, she hugged Wen Wan's neck and said, "I knew Mom was the best. Mom, when Dad comes back, how about we go to Zhuangzi for vacation."
This is not something Wen Wan can agree to: "I'm afraid it won't happen this year. Mom still has a lot of things on hand, and she won't be able to finish them in half a year. But Mom promises you that she will take you on vacation when she is finished, okay? "Wen Wan didn't say anything about going on vacation far away. Because this is not accurate. Wen Wan is not sure whether the emperor will let her and Bai Shinian go. There is nothing that can be done if he is captured and used as a messenger again. Wen Wan now feels powerless towards the emperor again.
Mingjin followed suit and said, "Okay, mother will keep her word. Then you and dad will take me and my brother to Mingyue Villa. I heard it is very fun there." Mingjin has not been to Mingyue Villa yet, and has always listened to Qi Zhe Said to Ling.
Wen Wan responded without thinking: "Sure, mom promises you."
It doesn¡¯t mean that Jin is eagerly looking forward to it, but Wenwan also misses it very much. I count every day, thinking that I will be home in two days, and I feel happy and a little worried at the same time: "I haven't seen you for eight years. I don't know if it has changed?"
Wen Wan is worried that the couple is estranged.
It¡¯s normal for Wen Wan to be worried. If it were anyone else, even if they were husband and wife, they haven¡¯t seen each other for eight years. There¡¯s no guarantee they won¡¯t be estranged when they meet again. Well, there is a very strange feeling. The people who are the closest and most familiar to me feel so strange again.
Xia Yao didn't know Wen Wan's entanglement, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, Princess. The general will never change."
Wen Wan curled her lips: "Or what? Who among the people in Daqi doesn't know that he is henpecked? If it weren't for him, I would have become the most fierce woman in Daqi." This is really an unjust accusation. If he doesn't, he won't be allowed to take care of her, and she will become the number one shrew in such a muddle-headed way. It doesn't make sense.
Xia Yao also knew that Wen Wan was nervous and comforted her carefully.
Wenwan waved her hand: "You've been waiting by my side all day. It's late.Let Qiuhan stay on duty at night. You go back! " Wen Wan thought that Qiu Han and Qiu Shui would take over from now on. We can't bother Xia Yao all the time. It's not a problem that the couple never see each other.
Xia Yao smiled and said: "Qiu Han and Qiu Shui are novices after all. If the princess is willing, let Xia Ying come back to serve!"
Wen Wan remained silent.
Xia Yao knew Wen Wan's anger: "Princess Xia Ying did something wrong. But if the emperor sends another person, it would be better to keep Xia Ying by his side. Qiu Yun and Qiu E have been together for a while I also looked at it coldly, saying no. The county wanted to let them go back, but it would be difficult for them to go back if the secret guards came. Even though Xia Ying had many intolerable shortcomings, it would be better to use them! One day I can guarantee it with my life. Xia Ying has been with the princess for so many years and has never done anything detrimental to the princess. "The secret guards are not allowed to see the light. Now that the two of them have seen the light, they can no longer go back. Therefore, Qiuyun and Qiu'e can't go back. If I want two more, who can guarantee that the next one will be good. Furthermore, when the general comes back in the future, many things will be different. Even Qiuyun, Qiu'e, and Xia Yao were thinking of ways to get rid of them.
Of course, to send someone away is to let them go out to do business, not to sell or kill them.
Since Xia Yao came to Wen Wan, she has never seen Xia Ying do anything sorry for Wen Wan. So Xia Yao wanted to keep Xia Ying a little selfishly, but mostly for Wen Wan's sake. Xia Yao knows one thing very well, Xia Ying will never betray Wen Wan, let alone do anything detrimental to Wen Wan. In the past, Xia Yao would not have suggested Wen Wan like this. But it's different now. As the emperor grew older, he became more and more suspicious, and he became more and more ruthless. Concubines, sons, and grandsons can all be kept in the capital, and their life and death can be ignored. If someone came here with ulterior motives and instigated the relationship between the princess and the emperor, the consequences would be disastrous. No matter how many things Xia Ying has, he can erase them all with this one.
Wen Wan does have concerns in this regard. This is why she has been unable to make up her mind. Because your heart is unpredictable. She used to be cautious when Bai Shinian was in the border town, and she had to be even more cautious when Bai Shinian came back. Wen Wan thought of such trembling days, and thought how much better it would be in modern times. If things get bad, you can still immigrate and go abroad. You can't go anywhere here.
Wen Wan shook her head: "If she does this to me again, I won't be able to bear it." This time it was uneventful, but there will be a next time! This is not the first time that Xia Ying has challenged her bottom line. Wen Wan really doesn't want to keep him.
Xia Yao knew Wen Wan's concerns: "Princess, there won't be another time. From now on, let Xia Ying be responsible for the convenient information. When the general comes back, Princess will have more time, and we can get up. "What Xia Yao means is that when Bai Shinian comes back, Wen Wan will have time to rectify her own power. There is no need to rely entirely on Xia Ying's side.
Wen Wan thought about it for a long time but still shook her head and did not refuse. She just said to take a look before talking. This woman has crossed the bottom line. Even if she does stay, she will never be reused.
After talking about Xia Ying, Wen Wan couldn't help but talk about Dongqing: "I really didn't know that Dongqing was also a member of the emperor's uncle. These people are also capable of killing her. If it weren't for my persistence, I'm afraid Dongqing would also have been poisoned by them. ." Wen Wan thought the secret guard's methods were too cruel.
What Wen Wan doesn¡¯t know is that the secret guards and people from the Shenji Camp still think her methods are cruel! Being able to figure out how to use drugs is nothing if not cruel.
Xia Yao didn't think anything of Dongqing being a secret guard. Although Dongqing has a funny temper, she is loyal to the princess and has managed the affairs of Haikou in an orderly manner over the years. But Xia Yao didn't expect that something like this would happen to Dongqing.
Wen Wan wants to transfer Dongqing back: "I will let Dong Zhengwei take care of the Haikou matter for the time being. When Bai Shinian comes back, I want to hand over the island matter to Bai Shinian. What do you think of letting Bai Shinian take charge?" Bai Shinian must be. I want to leave my job and stay home. The emperor didn't want to, Wen Wan had to let Bai Shinian resign. Wen Wan would have to worry if he took on any important position again. Bai Shinian has no public office, so he should manage his own power well.
Xia Yao couldn't help but start to worry about this: "Princess Princess, you said that the general and the emperor would not think too much about the island?"
Wen Wan laughed and couldn't help it. This island was originally a retreat for their family. Could it be that their husband is still not allowed to participate? This is too funny: "Think as much as you want. Bai Shinian has known about this for a long time. If we find an opportunity, Bai Shinian will definitely go He knows more about military operations than I do, and he also knows the situation along the coast very well. Leave it to him, I can rest assured. "There is no one in the world who reassures her more than Bai Shinian. Wen Wan decided not only to hand over the affairs of Haikou to Bai Shinian, but also to hand over the power of Haikou to Bai Shinian if the time comes. Wen Wan had been worried before, but after Wen Wan experienced the Tianlong incident, she became even more determined. ??That is, island construction is imminent. If things really go wrong when the emperor comes back, then we won't just build the island, but prepare for the worst. Forget it and go abroad.
Xia Yao smiled and nodded: "Princess, you don't have to be so tired when the general comes back." Over the years, the princess has worked hard for business, the general, and the children. The general is back, and the princess is relieved.
Wen Wan also had to sigh: "It's been eight years and I'm finally back. I don't know if I have changed!" Although Wen Wan was a little worried about the couple being separated for so many years, she couldn't deny that with Bai Shinian by her side, She wouldn't be as tired as she is now. After all, he had someone to share the pain with, whether it was good or bad.
???
Wen Wan couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
