Chapter 498 Return to Beijing

Pei Yunqian sent Pingyang back to Prince Yong's Mansion and he returned home. Pei Yunqian had to go to Beijing to take up his post, and he could not stay at home any longer. Half a month later, he returned to Prince Yong's Mansion to take Pingyang back to Beijing.

This is the first time Pingyang has returned to her parents' home since she married into Beijing. She has only lived here for less than half a month. Naturally, her family is very reluctant to leave her. However, Pingyang misses the young children at home, so she also makes up her mind to return with Pei Yunqian.

Beijing.

On the day Pingyang left home, Princess Yongqin held her daughter's hand and sent her all the way out of the palace gate. She couldn't bear to leave her daughter. She stayed up all night last night. Pingyang smiled and comforted her mother and said: "Concubine, don't be sad, wait until the children are older."

, I’ll bring them back with me.”

When Princess Yongqin heard this, she couldn't help but shed tears again: "My child, you are much thinner now than before. Your mother brought you many supplements and asked them to put them in the car. When you go back

You should eat every day to replenish your body.”

Pingyang held back his tears and said to his mother with a smile: "Women would be more beautiful if they wore lighter clothes. I am better in Beijing. My grandmother and aunt treat me kindly. My children are also well-behaved and sensible. My husband also knows it now."

Go ahead, mother and concubine, just take care of yourself, don’t always worry about your daughter.”

Sister-in-law Xie is the closest to Pingyang. Today, with her bulging belly, she came with her four children to see Pingyang off. Pingyang’s eldest brother Zhao Xuan also came, taking Meng with her, but Meng looked very strange.

He was weak and just hid behind Zhao Xuan, not as talkative as others.

Zhao Xuan saw that his mother had been feeling sad, so she stepped forward and comforted her: "This year is the year of tribute. If my mother misses her sister, I will go to Beijing to congratulate her at the end of the year and take my mother with me." After that, he told Pingyang: "

We are far away in Yizhou and can't help you much. If you encounter difficulties at your husband's family, ask your uncle's family to make the decision for you. Don't wrong yourself."

Pingyang smiled faintly, "I'm not a child anymore, so what's the problem? It's you. Now that my sister-in-law is about to give birth, you have to take more care of her."

Hearing this, Ms. Xie replied with a smile: "This is my fifth pregnancy, and I'm not that delicate."

Zhao Xuan leaned towards his wife, subconsciously staring at her bulging belly, and replied: "Your sister-in-law always hopes for a son. We have already given birth to three sons. I still think that this baby will be a daughter.

Haha, after the baby is born, we will write to you to tell you whether it is a boy or a girl."

When Mrs. Xie heard this, she looked at her husband and said angrily: "My daughter will get married sooner or later, and I don't want to endure the pain of separation."

Zhao Xuan smiled, patted his wife's hand, and replied: "It's all good, it's all good, both boys and girls are fine."

Meng, who was standing behind Zhao Xuan, turned her head sideways. Tears suddenly filled her eyes. She tried hard to restrain herself and sniffed while covering her brocade handkerchief.

Pingyang said goodbye to the other brothers, sisters-in-law and sisters one by one, and then boarded the carriage.

Zhao Xuan stepped forward and told Pei Yunqian who was riding on the horse: "Cousin Pei, be careful on the road."

Pei Yunqian raised his hands to Zhao Xuangong and replied: "Don't worry, cousin."

Zhao Xuan said again: "When you go to the north to take up a post, if you encounter difficulties, write to me and I can help you deal with it."

Pei Yunqian replied: "Thank you for your trouble, cousin."

Mrs. Xie stepped forward and said with tears in her eyes: "Hey! You should leave quickly. If we delay any longer, we won't be able to leave the city today."

Accompanied by the driver's shouts, a line of carriages and horses drove by. Pingyang, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at the palace gradually going away and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Pei Yunqian rode beside the car to protect him. He looked at Pingyang and coaxed: "Don't be sad. If you miss home, I'll just bring you back next year."

Pingyang tried to cry, and said half-crying, half-laughing: "Now that you are on the emperor's side, how can you be so comfortable in the future? How can you just say it back?"

Pei Yunqian smiled and said: "Even the emperor cannot prevent his ministers from visiting their parents at home. Haha, before I go to Northern Xinjiang this time, I have to go to the palace to meet the Holy One. When I meet the Holy One, I have to make an agreement with him in advance to send me to Northern Xinjiang.

Yes, but I must be given family leave to go back to Yizhou every year."

Knowing that Pei Yunqian was deliberately teasing her, Pingyang felt a lot brighter after hearing it. She joked: "A gentleman's words are hard to follow. If my cousin makes a mistake next year, I will have a good talk with you."

.”

As he said that, Pingyang turned his head and said to Yuzhu who was sitting beside him and covering his mouth with a smile: "Yuzhu, you heard what my cousin said just now. He promised to escort me back to my parents' home next year. You have to be a witness for me.

"

Yuzhu smiled and said: "This is an offending thing. Madam makes it very difficult for me to do it."

Pingyang looked at Yuzhu and joked: "You are mine."

Yuzhu hurriedly replied: "That's good, I will be the witness." She stretched her head and looked at Pei Yunqian who was riding the horse: "My lord, Madam is very serious here, you must keep your word.

"

A few people left the city chatting and laughing, and the group rushed to the posthouse in the evening.

Pingyang was helped out of the carriage by Yuzhu. She looked at the mountains and rivers of her hometown and sighed: "When we cross the river tomorrow, we will leave Yizhou completely."

Pei Yunqian said: "After a day's journey, go ahead and rest for a while. I'll ask Guanyi to arrange for someone to cook you some delicious food. It looks like it's going to rain. Don't come out again after you have eaten."

Yuzhu helped Pingyang into the post house. The post house was clean and tidy, and the upper room where Pingyang lived was even more spotless. All the quilts and utensils were newly replaced.

The post servant smiled and said attentively: "If I had known that the princess would come to stay, we would have made arrangements a long time ago. The princess will have a sip of tea first, and I will send meals soon."

After Yuzhu served Pingyang to wash up, the post servant brought the food. The old woman laid out the food and murmured: "It's very cloudy outside. I'm afraid there will be heavy rain tonight. There is soup on the stove for the princess to ward off the cold."

, Princess, please have a bowl of water after your meal. Our place is close to the river, so it is already humid. If it rains, the moisture will be even greater."

Pingyang asked: "If it rains, will the river flood?"

The post servant smiled and replied: "Last year, the imperial envoy sent down by the imperial court had already dredged the waterways in our Jiangnan area. The princess just needs to clear some water. Even if it rains heavily, we won't have floods here. Oops."

, as soon as I arrived

During the rainy season, we people here are always on tenterhooks, fearing that the Yangtze River will burst its banks and cause the river to overflow and destroy our homes. Now we can finally live a peaceful life. Haha, this is really thanks to the blessing of the Holy Lord today.

.”

"Princess, I have put this ginger tea here for you. Don't forget to drink it after you finish your meal."

Pingyang listened patiently to the old woman's ramblings. She turned to look at the gloomy sky outside the window and murmured: "As long as it doesn't delay the trip, I'll miss the children at home after being away for so long."
