Vol 2 Chapter 1127: Family (three shifts)

When the two Highnesses returned to Beijing, the capital was shaken.
People from the capital rushed to the streets one after another to see the demeanor of the two Highnesses.
As a result, the speed of the convoy drove into the city gate and slowed down significantly.
Ruyang looked outside through the car window and said, "Compared with when I left, it's a bit more lively."
The second prince Liu Heng smiled and said: "It is said that the population of the capital is increasing year by year. There are not so many people living in the city, and they are all crowded out of the city. Remember the Guozijian after the relocation? Along the railroad tracks, all houses are built until Xinmin County. .Because the rent is cheap, many people go there to rent a house. From the Imperial College below, it is getting more and more lively."
Ruyang made no sound.
The second prince Liu Heng asked her, "Compared with overseas, the capital is full of flowers, luxurious and rich. Is my sister really willing to leave and continue to live a hard life overseas?"
"Is it bitter? I don't realize it. Overseas is not as lively as one-tenth of the capital, but there is everything that should be there. How can I say that it is bitter. To say bitterness, it is also the unacceptable water and soil brought by the hot climate. And my royal city It is becoming more and more prosperous and the population is increasing. Even if it can’t catch up with the capital, one day, it will be able to catch up with the southern city of the Yangtze River."
"My sister has such ambition, it is very good!"
Ruyang looked at Shengzi, "Second brother, what are you going to do? Will you choose to stay in Beijing?"
The second prince Liu Heng smiled, "The huge capital has a place where I can display my talents."
"Chaotang is where my brother shows his talents."
"Not always."
Ruyang knew it, "Are you worried about a conflict with Big Brother?"
The second prince Liu Heng said: "Our identity is destined to be provoked by people with ulterior motives around us, and will never be at peace. I don't want to argue with my eldest brother, let alone see our brothers turn against each other under the instigation of courtiers. Therefore, It’s wise to leave the capital. Such a large area of ​​land overseas is enough for me to spend my entire life running it."
Ruyang sighed, "As a prince, many times you can't help yourself. The courtiers are hateful, for fear that the prince will be friendly, and I hope that every prince will play a dog's brain, and they can profit from it. Dare to love us princes and princes, we have become courtiers. We play with scheming tools. No wonder that through dynasties, there is no prince living in harmony."
"Propelled by interests, they can make things abruptly by them. My sister doesn't have to be angry. It's a big deal to leave the capital. The courtiers want to mess things up, and they can't help us."
Ruyang nodded.
The convoy passed through the crowd and finally drove into the imperial city.
When the carriage entered the palace gate, the heavy and solemn palace was dazzling.
Ruyang whispered: "I only know how much I miss this place when I come back here."
The emperor and empress were waiting for the two highnesses in Xingqing Palace.
The siblings got out of the carriage, entered the hall, and bowed down to the father and the queen.
Tears flickered in Gu Jiu's eyes.
Emperor Liu Zhao grinned and looked cheerful.
"No gift! Get up and let my palace take a look."
"Thank you father and queen!"
"It's dark, thin, and taller. Ruyang in my family has grown up to be a big girl, but the skin color is not white enough to wear red and green clothes."
"Mother and queen, as soon as your daughter came back, you started to wonder how to dress up your daughter. How do you feel that you are despising me for being ugly."
Haha...
"I don't think you are ugly, you are not ugly. It just changes too much from what you remember. You have to give the mother some time to adapt."
"The queen still hates me for being ugly."
Gu Jiu smiled helplessly and glanced at Liu Zhao.
Liu Zhao grinned and smiled like a second fool.
"How can my girl be ugly? Look, how beautiful she is. She looks like no other girl in Beijing. Ruyang, don't blame your mother, your mother has a problem with her eyesight."
"You said I have a problem with my vision? Make it clear!"
Gu Jiu was upset.
In her eyes, Ruyang was full of vigor and dignity, so beautiful.
When did she say Ruyang looks bad?
It's just the habitual thinking of women. When they see a girl, they think about how to dress a girl.
Can this have something to do with beauty and ugliness?
She just wanted to give her daughter the best, to dress her daughter beautifully.
Her eyes widened, and Liu Zhao immediately admitted.
"My faults are all my faults. I said the wrong thing, and the queen must not have the same knowledge as me."
The brother and sister laughed secretly.
The father and the queen are as always afraid of the mother.
The third prince Liu Li hurried over.
"Second brother, sister!"
When the three brothers and sisters met, their eyes were red.
"Our brother has grown taller."
"Brother Li is already an adult."
"Sister, I don't like to hear these words, as if you are much older than me. You were only born half an hour earlier than me."
"Haanzhuxiang is also bigger than you."
Sisters and brothers quarrel daily, but they still have a familiar formula and a familiar taste.
Seeing the brother and sister getting along well, Gu Jiu was very pleased.
Noon family dinner.
Princess Qi Sun Qiniang brought three children into the palace.
After a trip to the sea, Ruyang changed his temper, and especially liked children.
Seeing three nephews and nieces, I was overjoyed.
She and Gu Jiu said: "When my daughter goes overseas, she realizes the value of the child and the importance of population. The increase in the number of new students in the city every year is a thing to celebrate."
"I heard from the palace that you encourage the crew to marry a local woman? Is it effective?"
"The crew are very happy to settle in the local area, marry a wife and have children. The guards are not very happy. Most of the first group of guards around the daughter are children from Beijing, and they are definitely not happy to stay overseas. The daughter did not force them. Later they were replaced. With the help of the guards, only the children from the coastal good family who were recruited, the intermarriage strategy can be considered progress."
Gu Jiu nodded secretly, "You must pay attention to your own safety outside, and you must be defensive. It is a big taboo not to give your own safety to someone's hands. Your guards must check and balance each other."
"Daughter understands! Thank you mother for reminding me."
"You are away from home, and this palace is always worried. When you come back this time, don't leave."
"The daughter is also reluctant to give up her mother! However, the foundation of the daughter is overseas, and the daughter cannot give up on them."
Gu Jiu was full of sadness.
She arranged the collar for Ruyang.
Ruyang finally changed into women's clothing. The slightly plain clothes matched her.
"My palace supports you in pursuing your dreams, but the thought of having to separate for many years to meet makes my heart full of dismay. This time I will stay in the capital for a while."
"Daughter listens to her mother."
The three little nephews and nieces all received the meeting gifts, and they were too happy.
Milky voice said thank you aunt, thank you uncle.
The second prince Liu Heng hugged the two boys, which was too rare.
"It's a pity that Big Brother is not at home."
A family dinner took two hours.
Gu Jiu drank slightly, and Liu Zhao flushed.
He is happy!
He put his head on the pillow, and the pillow was on Gu Jiu's lap.
He was dizzy, still thinking.
"The children are back, I am happy! The palace has not been so lively for a long time."
"Take advantage of their return, and settle the children's marriage together."
"The second child got married directly. After so many years of engagement, the girl's age has been dragged up."
Before Liu Heng left Beijing, he decided on a marriage, which he chose himself.
Li Bingming Li's granddaughter.
Unfortunately, Li Bingming, Master Li has passed away, and he cannot see the wedding of his little granddaughter.
"And the marriage between Ruyang and Li brother."
"Brother Li's marriage, I don't worry about it. The only thing I worry about is Ruyang's marriage. Look at our girl, how wonderful! A girl's house, in charge of more than a dozen cities, has seven soldiers with weapons and equipment. Eight thousand people, plus the local government officials, there are tens of thousands of people. What a cow! Such a wonderful girl, the son of a family in the capital, I can't think of anyone who is worthy of her. People who are worthy of her are at least old. Her round. The teenagers of her age are still childish and have no career foundation. Ruyang's marriage is difficult!"
Liu Zhao was proud and melancholy.
The girl is too good, as a father, her mouth is too proud to close.
But the marriage of a girl has become a big problem.
What a sweet burden.
Gu Jiu said, "The second child quietly told me that Ruyang had photographed a person."
"what?"
Liu Zhao jumped up instantly, "Whose stinky kid lied to my girl? I have to break his leg."
Gu Jiu laughed, "Just now I was still worrying about Ruyang's marriage. This will break other people's legs again. You are really fickle."
"That's different! People who haven't been investigated by me are not qualified to marry my girl. Whose son actually makes Ruyang fall in love? I must take a good look."
Gu Jiu said: "The second child refuses to say! I plan to wait for Ruyang to explain to me in person."
"Then how can we do it! We have to inquire about each other's situation first before we can grasp the opportunity."
"Then you send someone to inquire, if Ruyang is angry with you, don't ask me to complain."
Liu Zhao was dumbfounded.
He almost forgot that Ruyang had a strong temperament.
"But she has been overseas for many years, and her temperament is definitely different from when she was a child. She won't get angry as easily as she was when she was a child. Don't forget, our daughter is the lord of the city who manages more than a dozen cities!"
Liu Zhao laughed happily, very eagerly.
When I think of the achievements of my girl, I feel like drinking ice water in a dog days, and I feel refreshed and transparent.
In fact, Gu Jiu is also very curious about what kind of people Ruyang can admire.
Liu Zhao was ready to move, so she asked Liu Zhao to ask for the news.
Liu Zhao said to her: "If Ruyang gets into trouble, you have to speak nicely for me."
Such a persuaded father is really rare.
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay! I promise to speak nice things for you."
