Chapter 520 521 Reunion
Zhou Jia looked at Mr. Zhou who was looking at him with a smile on his face, stepped forward, bowed his head and saluted: "Jiahe pays homage to uncle."
Mr. Zhou responded with some sadness: "It will be good to come back, it will be good to come back."
Then he said to Li Yu: "Jiahe, my wife, leave the child to me. You can wait for him to go back and wash himself so that he can eat."
"Yes, uncle." Li Yu responded with a smile.
After the couple returned to the house, Zhou Jia held Li Yu in his arms, kissed him and murmured, "Yu'er, I miss you and the child so much."
Li Yu stared at him deeply, "I miss you too. Seeing how thin you are, my hands hurt even when I hold you."
"I missed you and lost weight." Zhou Jia hugged Li Yu, and the couple hugged each other and looked at each other with joy in their hearts.
When Li Qing learned that Zhou Jia was back, he brought Fan Mingfang to Zhou's house. After a while, Lin Zexu also came with Gong. Li Yu and Zhou Jia welcomed them in with a smile.
"Uncle and aunt, I was thinking of inviting you over for a get-together tomorrow." Li Yu said with a smile.
"You don't need to invite us, we'll do it ourselves." Gong said with a smile.
Lin Zexu smiled and said to Zhou Jia and Li Qing: "Let's go in and talk."
"Yes, uncle." Zhou Jia smiled and walked with the two of them to the study.
Gong looked at Zhou Jia's back and said with a smile: "Jiahe has lost a lot of weight during his trip to Yuezhou, so give him some rest."
Li Yu smiled and nodded, "Yes, give him some good patching."
After Zhou Jia, Lin Zexu, and Li Qing sat down in the study, they told them some of the problems they discovered along the way and what happened in Yuezhou. He said in a low voice: "I took my people and turned over the Cheng family in Yuezhou, but I still couldn't find any trace of the second prince. The number of weapons seized from the Cheng family was not consistent with the number said by the craftsmen, and some were sold. The quantity of pig iron produced does not match the quantity recorded in the account, and His Majesty is worried that the Second Prince is hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity."
Lin Zexu said: "The Cheng family in Yuezhou has been a famous family for a hundred years. There must be more than one back-up plan left behind. How can you easily find it? I think most of the pig iron and weapons were transported to the place where the second prince is hiding."
Li Qing looked at Lin Zexu in confusion, "Uncle, your Majesty is talented and wise, and knows people well. Why didn't the late emperor appoint you as the crown prince as soon as possible?"
Lin Zexu said: "The late emperor was afraid of the Shen family's military self-respect and did not want to pass the throne to the third prince. After the third prince was injured, the late emperor prepared to appoint the eldest prince as the heir apparent. Before the decree was issued, the eldest prince and the second prince suffered disasters one after another. Your Majesty was helpless. Therefore, the throne has to be passed on to His Majesty. Now it seems that the Shen family is loyal to Dayong, and the Cheng family will do anything for their own selfish interests."
Li Qing frowned and said: "Uncle and brother-in-law, I think there must be something wrong with General Zou. Why did you just remove him and not deal with him?"
Zhou Jia looked at Li Qing and said, "Think carefully about why His Majesty did not deal with him. Also, when your term in the Hanlin Academy expires next year, do you plan to find a position in the capital or be sent out?"
After hearing this, Lin Zexu also looked at Li Qing, "Yes! Ah Qing, what do you think about this?"
Li Qing had already considered this matter. When the two asked about it, he stood up and replied, "Uncle and brother-in-law, I want to go away for a few years before returning to Kyoto."
Lin Zexu nodded and said, "That's fine. With us in Kyoto, you can make political achievements while you are away from home. It will be more beneficial to your career after you return to the capital."
Li Qing stood up and saluted the two of them, "A Qing, thank you uncle, thank you brother-in-law."
The few people continued to discuss matters until Xiao Niliu came to invite them out for dinner, and then they went to the main hall to eat together.
When we arrived at the main hall, Mr. Wen also came back from the drug store with Qijin, and everyone greeted each other again.
After sitting down to eat, Li Yu and Zhou Jia sent Uncle Lin and his wife and Li Qing and his wife away before going back to the room to wash up and rest. Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu affectionately, and the two hugged each other tightly.
Afterwards, Zhou Jia told Li Yu in detail what happened on the way to and from Yuezhou, and then said: "Your Majesty asked you when will you go to Wangjia'ao to collect sweet potatoes? He also wants to go to Wangjia'ao to have a look."
Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia in surprise, "Why did he think of going to Wangjia'ao? If you want to see digging sweet potatoes, there is one in Huangzhuang outside the city! Can we go to Wangjia'ao safely with us? What if something happens?"
Zhou Jia smiled and kissed her, "Fool, Your Majesty wears private clothes when traveling, so you won't attract attention."
Li Yu wrinkled his nose and said disgustedly: "Trouble, if you travel with him, you have to be careful about everything you say. I don't feel comfortable at all."
Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu fondly, "Yu'er, I heard that you made another thing called briquettes at home. His Majesty said he wanted to see the briquettes you made."
Li Yu smiled and said: "There are a lot of briquettes in Zhuangzi. Now my uncle and Ah Qing use them to boil water. They also use them at home. Everyone says they are convenient. At the beginning of the month, we will go to Wangjia'ao to dig sweet potatoes. You can report it to us. Your Majesty, please set a date!"
"Well! Thank you for your hard work these days," Zhou Jia thought of the Cheng family's attack on Yang Yang, "I didn't expect that the Cheng family would be so crazy as to attack Yang'er."
"After my husband learned about it, he was worried that he would be frightened and restless at night, so he prepared tranquilizers for him, but he was not afraid at all and slept until dawn." Li Yu said with a smile.
After hearing this, Zhou Jia also smiled and nodded, "This child is bold." The couple talked about trivial matters for a while before embracing each other and falling asleep.
Zhou Jia went to court early the next morning, and Yangyang said to him: "Dad, Mom said that when you come back, she will ask Brother Nilu and the others to send me to school. After school today, I want to play with my classmates for a while before going home. "
Zhou Jia looked at his son who had grown a lot taller and smiled happily: "Okay, daddy will tell your mother when she gets up. Don't play outside for too long, so we don't have to worry."
After hearing this, Yangyang narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Yeah! Don't worry, dad. I'm going to see my brothers before going to school."
Yueyue screamed when she saw Yangyang, and Xingxing also screamed at him. Yangyang smiled and touched their furry heads, feeling that the soft touch was so comfortable. I thought: No wonder my mother always likes to touch my head.
"Brother has gone to school. You guys should be good at home."
Yangyang took Little Loach and Maodou to the school gate, and said to Little Loach and Maodou: "You can follow the woman who sent Lin Sen here later and see what she has done. Tell me when I come out from school." .”
The two nodded and asked again: "Master, we will follow Master Lin's mother-in-law. Have you made an agreement with Master Lin?"
"Don't worry, it was agreed upon." Yangyang looked at the mother-in-law who walked over with Lin Sen, "It's her, follow her."
The two of them glanced at the mother-in-law and said, "Yes, young master.
Lin Sen saw Yang Yang and Little Loach and walked up to stand with Yang Yang. He turned to look at his mother-in-law and said, "Mother Yue, please go back!"
The mother-in-law nodded, turned around and left. Little Loach and Edamame followed.
Yang Yang and Lin Sen stood at the door and waited for a while. Lin Haoran came. As soon as he saw Yang Yang, he asked: "Zhou Chenxi, is your father back?"
Yangyang said with a smile: "I'm back. I told him that I will go play with you for a while this afternoon. You should also tell your family."
"No, my home is not far from Lin Sen's home." Lin Haoran pulled the two of them towards the school and looked at Lin Sen, "Lin Sen, did she take anything from you again today?"
Dear cats, I have some things to do these days, so I can only update one chapter a day. On the 14th, I will resume two chapters a day. I'm sorry everyone.
