It is difficult for an upright official to stop household affairs.

But then again, 'Governing a big country is like cooking small dishes.'

If you can't handle trivial family matters well, and your eyes are high but your hands are low, how can you talk about national affairs and world affairs?

Looking at Mrs. Zhang who was extremely entangled and worried that she would be worried about Mao Chengdou, Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Madam, if a small sapling is not repaired, it may indeed grow crooked. But, then again, if it continues

Yin Feng supports its growth, what if a violent storm comes?"

"this……"

Seeing Li Yuanqing's calm and gentle smile, Ms. Zhang suddenly fell into silence.

Zhang actually knew very well that Li Yuanqing's time in Beijing was limited, and within this limited time, Mao Chengdou had even less time to spend with Li Yuanqing.

In the past, when Mao Wenlong was around, she didn't have to worry about anything. Even though life at home was a little tight, she always had a backbone in her heart.

But at this time~, the towering tree that protected their mother and son from wind and rain had collapsed. Although Li Yuanqing was Mao Chengdou's eldest brother, how could Li Yuanqing have time to train Mao Chengdou when he had so many things to do?

"Li Shuai, I know what you mean, but I'm just worried..."

Mrs. Zhang said, tears already flowing out, sobbing in a low voice.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly said: "Madam, please don't be sad. Maybe Yuan Qing is a little anxious, so let's make it clear. Madam, in fact, Chengdou likes hunting in the mountains and fighting on horseback. This is not wrong, it is the instinct of a military commander.

But it is best for us to guide him to the right path, strengthen his body, and enhance his abilities, instead of blindly stopping him and cultivating Chengdou into a canary, what do you think, madam?"

Mrs. Zhang nodded hurriedly, "But Li Shuai, Chengdou's safety..."

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Madam, don't worry, I will arrange someone in my humble position to take good care of Chengdou."

Li Yuanqing had already said this, and Zhang had witnessed Mao Chengdou's changes with her own eyes, so how could she still refute Li Yuanqing? She nodded slowly and solemnly.

After sending Zhang away, Li Yuanqing also breathed a sigh of relief.

With Mao Chengdou as the "Yao Yinzi" here, it will definitely be much smoother when talking to Zhang about Shen's affairs.

Especially after Li Yuanqing got closer to Zhang, he also understood that Zhang was not a scheming person.

Dinner was prepared quickly. In order to liven up the atmosphere, Li Yuanqing directly ordered the banquet to be placed outside the tent and ate directly in the open air.

Everyone drank hot pheasant soup, ate fragrant roast rabbit meat, smelled the aroma of green mountains and green waters, and tasted sweet tea and wine. Against the backdrop of the red bonfire, the atmosphere quickly became lively.

Liu Rushi couldn't help showing her childlike nature at this time. She clinked glasses with Xu Fo beside her and said, "Sister, I'm going to replace the wine with tea and give you a toast. I really hope that days like this will last forever."

How wonderful it would be to stay at this moment."

Xu Fo smiled: "Girl, you are happy now. Our good luck may be coming."

Although Liu Rushi was still a little immature, how could she not understand the hidden meaning of Xu Fo's words? She whispered: "But, sister, Li Yuanqing has not come to see us until now."

Xu Fo smiled lowly: "There are so many people today, and Li Yuanqing is not a three-headed and six-armed immortal. The main ones must be Mao Mansion. However, he should be here soon."

Liu Rushi instinctively looked at the tall figure not far away who was exchanging glasses of wine with others. Unexpectedly, he met Li Yuanqing's gaze.

Liu Rushi lowered his head shyly, but out of the corner of his eye he was still looking at Li Yuanqing and saw Li Yuanqing striding towards this side.

Liu Rushi's heart suddenly jumped like a deer bumping into each other.

"Haha. Mr. Xu and Ms. Liu, today's journey is a bit hurried. It is inevitable that Yuan Qing will not entertain you well. I would also like to invite Mr. Xu and Ms. Liu Haihan to come. On this beautiful day, Yuan Qing would like to toast you two."

Xu Fo smiled hurriedly and said: "Li Shuai is busy with official duties, so he should put official duties first. The Nu family and Ru are very happy to be here today. Li Shuai, the Nu family works first as a courtesy."

Liu Rushi also quickly picked up the teacup in her hand.

After the three of them drank a glass of wine, Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "A team will go into the mountains for hunting later. If you and Miss Liu are interested, you can come over and have fun."

Xu Fo couldn't help being stunned, "Li Shuai, it's so late and you still want to go hunting in the mountains?"

Liu Rushi subconsciously opened her mouth and thought to herself: 'How can we hunt so late?'

Li Yuanqing smiled: "The night in the deep mountains is a good time for ferocious beasts to appear. However, if you two want to go, you must be fully prepared and change your clothes. Haha. It doesn't matter if you don't want to go. There is a pool in the north.

Tomorrow, we can go fishing."

Li Yuanqing said, motioning to the two girls that he should go elsewhere to greet them first.

Seeing that Li Yuanqing was gone, Liu Rushi said hurriedly: "Sister, here, shall we go here?"

Xu Fo smiled: "Girl, don't ask my sister about this, ask yourself."

"..."

Liu Rushi was speechless. In her heart, she really wanted to go, but she was a little frightened by the endless darkness. She hesitated for a moment and said hurriedly: "Sister, are you going?"

…………

The cheerful dinner continued for more than half an hour, until it came to an end at around 9:30 at the beginning of Haishi, and everyone returned to the tent to rest.

Although it was early spring, the night wind in the mountains was still very cold. Fortunately, Li Yuanqing was very well prepared. There were several braziers in the tent. The red burning charcoal fire dispelled the chill and heated up the tent.

warmth.

At this time, the fifty-man hunting team led by Jin Huizi himself had also finished packing.

Mao Chengdou was carrying a small blunderbuss on his back, standing in front of the team like a high-spirited general about to go on an expedition.

Li Yuanqing was not in the team at this time. This hunting team was actually set up for Mao Chengdou.

But what surprised Li Yuanqing was that Xu Fo and Liu Rushi both packed up and wanted to follow the hunting team into the mountains.

"Everyone Xu, Miss Liu, you guys, have you thought about it?"

Li Yuanqing said to the two women with some admiration.

Xu Fo was also a little surprised at this time. Unexpectedly, she missed a move and did not guess that Li Yuanqing would not enter the mountain at this time.

But at this time, the arrow was already on the string and had to be fired. Xu Foshi smiled and said: "The Nu family and Rushi thought that Li Shuai was going too. Who knew that Li Shuai didn't go. However, the Nu family and Rushi fought for

I will come back from hunting a pheasant tomorrow morning and make some soup for Li Shuai."

Li Yuanqing laughed loudly: "Thank you very much for your kindness, Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu, Miss Liu, have a nice trip."

Xu Fo didn't expect that Li Yuanqing didn't try to persuade them to stay, but let them go into the mountain...

Fortunately, she and Liu Rushi were not the only ones entering the mountain at this time, there were also several concubines of Li Yuanqing.

After a moment, Xu Fo said with a smile: "Then let me lend Li Shuai auspicious words. If so, let's go."

As the team entered the mountain, Li Yuanqing could not help but reveal an unspeakable smile. This matter was becoming more and more interesting.

Here, Ms. Zhang, who was bidding farewell to Mao Chengdou, has returned to her tent. The weather is a bit cold at this time, and her body cannot bear it.

Next to her, Mrs. Shen was about to return to the tent, but was suddenly stopped by Li Yuanqing, "Second Madam, it's a bit cold. Remember to cover Yaya with a quilt."

Mrs. Shen thought that Li Yuanqing had something to say to her, but unexpectedly, it was this...

After a moment, she nodded curtly, "Thank you so much, Li Shuai. I understand."

Watching Shen's beautiful figure leave, an unspeakable smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Li Yuanqing's mouth.

…………

Three days passed by in a blink of an eye.

Li Yuanqing spent two nights in Shen's tent...

It's just that God doesn't know it, and ghosts don't realize it...

Li Sansheng's mountaineering team really had a good harvest. Not only did they hunt a tiger, but they also captured two tiger cubs.

Especially one of the tiger cubs turned out to be a snow-white white tiger.

Shen's daughter Yaya couldn't put it down. She always wanted to touch the little white tiger's fur.

This little white tiger is about two to three months old, slightly larger than an ordinary cat, and can already eat. Even if it leaves its mother, it can be fed artificially.

Mrs. Shen knew that the white tiger was a gift from Li Yuanqing to the emperor. Even if Yaya liked it very much, she could only let Li Yuanqing take it away.

Li Yuanqing and Mrs. Shen came to the auxiliary tent next door and said with a smile: "This Xiaobai, I'll give it to Yaya. I'll think of a way over there in Beijing. Also, the eldest lady has already promised you."

Things. You first go to Tianjin with the large group of people. The day after tomorrow, the first day of April, after I have finished awarding the reward, I will go and join you."

Mrs. Shen glanced at Li Yuanqing, then lowered his head slightly for a moment, then pondered for a long time, and whispered: "Thank you... thank you."

Li Yuanqing smiled and accurately grasped Shen's little hand, "The pain is over. Good times will come soon."

Shen's pretty face suddenly turned red. She wanted to struggle, but she didn't expect it. Li Yuanqing's strength was so great that she couldn't get away at all. She whispered: "Let me go."

Li Yuanqing smiled, but did not let go. Instead, he held Shen's delicate body in his arms and whispered in her ear: "It doesn't matter if you have knots in your heart. I will always wait for you."

Seeing Li Yuanqing walking away, Shen's eyes could not help but shed two lines of tears, 'Why, why would God do this?'

…………

As expected, Xu Fo and Liu Rushi did not return to the capital, but directly followed Li Sansheng and his party to Tianjin first.

The deeper their contact with Li Yuanqing, the more they wanted to see what the legendary Changsheng Island was like.

On the afternoon of March 30, Li Yuanqing and his party returned to the capital city smoothly.

However, at this time, all the female relatives around Li Yuanqing, except Kyoko Kubo, had already gone to Tianjin. To a certain extent, Li Yuanqing became a "lonely person".

Back at Sanfu Inn, Chen Zhong had been waiting here for a long time.

He came back one day earlier than Li Yuanqing and successfully got two tiger cubs.

Together, the two brothers selected the two strongest tiger cubs from the five on hand and sent them directly to Wang Chengen, who presented them to the emperor on his behalf and raised them on his behalf.

After everything was settled, Li Yuanqing was preparing to have a good drink with Chen Zhong, Man Gui, Zhang Pan, Chen Liangce and other old brothers in the evening. He would rest for a day tomorrow and prepare for the rewards in the future. Tian Hong met this guy.

He also sent someone to visit him and invited Li Yuanqing to his house for a drink.

Li Yuanqing obviously understood Tian Hongyu's thoughts. Luo Yangxing's participation suddenly took away part of the profits of Bubugao Company. After all, this guy couldn't sit still.

Although Li Yuanqing did not want to pay attention to Tian Hongyu at this time, the Tian family slave revealed an intention intentionally or unintentionally... Tonight, Concubine Tian may want to 'return to her natal family'.
