Vol 2 Chapter 918: Man's vanity

The emperor traveled, the flags fluttered, and the convoy stretched for dozens of miles.
The accompanying officials, royal family members, and nobles of the aristocratic family consisted of six to seven hundred people.
In addition, the servants who were waiting, the guards who guarded the safety, and the huge team slowly moved towards the palace.
Niuniu poked her head out of the car window and looked curiously.
"Lots of people!"
"Let me see, I want to see too." Li brother squeezed to the window.
Fortunately, the windows are large enough.
The two children lay on the window and looked outside with relish.
Gu Jiu covered her lips and coughed slightly, "It's dusty outside, close the car windows."
"My daughter wants to watch it for a while."
"Wait to the palace and just watch it."
Gu Jiu stretched out his hand and pulled Niuniu into his arms.
"Daddy is coming back, do you want Daddy?"
Niuniu hesitated for a moment, and said aggrievedly: "Daughter doesn't remember Daddy."
Gu Jiu's heart immediately softened, and she put a kiss on Niuniu's forehead, "Daddy remembers Niuniu."
"Really?" Niuniu raised her head, her small appearance was so beautiful.
Gu Jiu nodded, "Daddy will always remember Niuniu."
Niuniu giggled.
With a look of envy, Li brother leaned close to Gu Jiu, "Mother, my son remembers Daddy."
"Really! Brother Li has a good memory, awesome! When Daddy comes back, ask him to take you up the mountain to hunt, okay?"
"Okay, okay!" Li brother laughed, so hard to see.
Niuniu fought for favor, "I want to, and I want to hunt."
"When Dad comes back, tell him to take Niangniang and Brother Li into the mountains to hunt and play."
"great!"
Liu Zhao was still on his way back to Beijing, and Gu Jiu had already assigned an important task to take care of his children.
Huh huh!
Just after his armour was removed, he became the housekeeper and took charge of the children. The change of identity is too fast, and I don't give any time to prepare.
The team walked slowly, and it took three full days to reach the palace.
Settling down in the palace, Gu Jiu received a message from the capital.
Liu Zhao has arrived in the capital. After a day's rest, he is coming to the palace. It is estimated to be there tomorrow morning.
When Gu Jiu heard the words, he couldn't calm down as soon as he got up and down.
She thought she wouldn't be excited, but when things came, she knew how much she missed him and wanted to see a man who had been away for several years.
She has to be calm and calm.
So I opened a jar of fruit wine and poured myself into the moon.
After drinking it slightly drunk, learning from Li Taibai, inviting Mingyue to a toast, facing each other into three people.
Hey, why are there two shadows on the ground.
Could it be that the moon appeared.
Gu Jiu hiccups, she seems to be drunk, it must be a ghost.
"Idiot, not a ghost. I'm back!"
Liu Zhao's face was vicissitudes of life, and his eyes were deep, adding to the charm of a man.
The whole body exudes fatal attraction.
It's terrible.
Gu Jiu was in a daze, "Why did I dream of you? You won't arrive until tomorrow morning. It will still be dark."
Liu Zhao took the wine glass in her hand, and the maids were all sent away.
He sat down next to her and put his arms around her waist, "I can see it clearly, it's a real person, not a dream. How much did you drink?"
Gu Jiu stretched out his hand, squeezed Liu Zhao's cheek first, then pinched it hard, and said in doubt, "It doesn't hurt!"
Liu Zhao grinned, never expecting to see his relatives and his wife for the first time, and he was greeted with a pinch.
He grabbed her hand, "You pinch me, of course it doesn't hurt. Come on, pinch your thigh."
"Bad guy! I really think that the princess is drunk, you can deceive me."
Gu Jiu slapped Liu Zhao's face.
Liu Zhao smiled angrily, approached, sniffing the familiar and missed smell, "Really drunk, or pretend to be drunk? I'm back, you are not happy."
"The messenger said, you won't be here until tomorrow morning."
Gu Jiu lay in his arms with a grieved expression on his face.
The wine has woken up by five points, and five points are left drunk, so that she can do whatever she wants.
Liu Zhao hugged her, "I miss you, miss the children, so I rushed over. I thought you would jump into my arms when you met, but it turned out to be a good thing. Pinching my face feels good, right."
Gu Jiu giggled, trembling with laughter.
"You've been away for several years, so I'm not allowed to take a pinch by wine. Can't I still pinch your face."
"Pinch, pinch. Between heaven and earth, only you can pinch my face."
Gu Jiu smiled triumphantly, "It's so stinky, how long has it been since I took a bath? He has a stubble beard, and he is very old. I don't like you anymore."
"I only washed it last night. I rushed over, changing horses all the way without changing people. It's normal to have a bit of sweat on my body. Are you disgusted?" Liu Zhaote was wronged.
The front line valiantly killed the enemy, but the wife despised him for being old.
He touched his face, "Is it really old? I don't feel it when I look in the mirror. It hasn't changed from a few years ago. If you touch my face again, there are no wrinkles, it is very tight."
Huh!
Gu Jiu laughed, "Are you serious? You look good when you are old."
Liu Zhao's face was choked, "It must be that the light is too dark, so you think I'm old. Come, let's go in, take a closer look and make sure that I am not old."
Gu Jiu held him.
The weather is very good, the sky is full of stars, and tomorrow will be another sunny day.
"So there is no moon!"
She looked stunned and realized.
She was still drinking to Yue, and she was confused when she dared to drink.
Hahaha...
"There is no moon today, but there are lanterns. Do you think the lantern is the moon?"
When the truth was revealed, Gu Jiu lost face, so he rolled his eyes.
She nestled in Liu Zhao's arms and held his hand.
His hands are wind, frost, sword rain, and thick cocoons.
Her hand climbed on his cheek, his cheek was blown by the wind and sun, it was tempered by the years, and it was a thick murderous look cast by blood.
"Collect the smell of blood from your body, and be careful to scare the child." She whispered.
Liu Zhao lowered his head and smelled himself, "Is there a smell of blood? No way!"
Gu Jiu laughed, laughing at him stupidly.
She couldn't help but squeezed his cheek again, "Too much killing, naturally there will be a lingering smell on her body. Remember to converge a little, go back to the capital, and act differently from the northwest. You have to adjust as soon as possible."
Liu Zhao smiled clearly, "Don't worry, I have a sense of measure."
Gu Jiu smiled but didn't smile, "It's so reasonable, isn't it coaxing me?"
"What do I coax you to do." Liu Zhao scratched her nose. "You haven't changed at all over the years, you are still so beautiful."
Gu Jiu smiled, "Who makes me naturally beautiful?"
Liu Zhao had a snack, "Am I really old?"
OMG!
Why is a man so concerned about his appearance? Could it be possessed by a monster?
Gu Jiu gently touched his lips and said, "It's getting more and more masculine."
"Is this king not masculine before?"
Hey hey hey, jealous with your past self, as for?
Gu Jiu comforted the wounded and fragile heart of the man, "Of course there was a masculinity before, but now it is more attractive than before."
"That said, I really am old."
Liu Zhao looked depressed.
Gu Jiu laughed loudly, not showing any face.
Man, your name is Vanity.
She lifted his cheek and said seriously, "I don't despise you."
Liu Zhao's mouth twitched, and these words did not comfort him at all.
Gu Jiu squeezed his ears, "Don't forget that Brother Yu is approaching the age of a weak crown, do you think you are still young?"
Liu Zhao snorted, "You are so young and beautiful, and I am so old. It's not good to stand together. Others think we are old couples and young wives."
The smelly man is really vanity.
Gu Jiu deliberately said with a straight face, "Hehe! Dare you hope that I will become a yellow-faced woman in the wind and sun every day, so you have a reason to find a beautiful young girl."
"You are slander."
"Then you just shut up and don't be wronged."
Don't even allow grievances, so domineering.
Liu Zhao held her hand, "I found out that you were very aggressive when you drank."
Gu Jiu raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I just found out now, it's too late!"
"It's not too late, I'll drink with you."
Liu Zhao lifted the jug and filled the glass.
The two toasted and drank.
"Brother Yu and Brother Heng are crazy playing outside, I guess they don't even know which direction the door is going to open."
Liu Zhao hummed twice and complained slightly.
Gu Jiu gave him a white look, "The children are old, so they should go out to gain knowledge. When you were as old as them, you didn't sneak out of the capital to make a fool of yourself."
"What is nonsense, this king is doing serious things." By the way, he abducted a wife and went home.
Gu Jiu laughed at him: "You came out of Beijing without a motive, and they came out of Beijing on an decree. The nature is completely different."
"I found that you are partial. You treat the children better than me." Liu Zhao complained.
Gu Jiu looked at him speechlessly and touched his rough cheeks, "The older the person, the thicker the skin becomes and the less reasonable. It is really good to be jealous with the children."
Liu Zhao approached Gu Jiu's ear and said, "I am also a child in front of you."
Nonsence!
Shameless man.
Who is not a child!
This princess is also a child.
Gu Jiu squeezed his ears, "Don't be foolish."
Liu Zhao laughed triumphantly.
Gu Jiu was so angry that he punched his fists.
Liu Zhao shook her hand, "Okay, okay, I admit my mistake. I'm going to face the saint tomorrow, can the lady mention something?"
Gu Jiu hesitated for a moment, "You have to be mentally prepared. Your Majesty has grown a lot older because you have not been in these years."
"How old is it?"
Gu Jiu thought about it for a while, "Old-fashioned!"
Liu Zhao looked surprised.
He still remembered that when he was out of Beijing, his father was energetic and spoke to him in full spirit.
"Is it sick?" Liu Zhao asked.
Gu Jiu shook his head, "I'm getting old! It seems that he has entered old age from middle age overnight, and he grows very fast."
Liu Zhao frowned, "So the capital is not peaceful? Everyone is about to move."
"Exactly."
Liu Zhao said: "When you see the emperor tomorrow, I have to have a good chat with him."
"What are you talking about?" Gu Jiu asked curiously.
"I can't think of what the old father looks like, he must be very sad." Liu Zhao felt a little heavy.
No matter how many contradictions there are between father and son, how complicated the emotions are. The deepest feeling buried in my heart must be the original father-son relationship.
