"In fact, the best way is to let Jingchang go to other places as an official. There are so many honorable relatives in the capital, and there are countless romantic ones, as soon as Jing Chang leaves the capital, it is naturally someone else who wanders around in people's mouths," Princess An Xu Mengyu said.

"Then it's better to fight a war." Miaojin said: "The reason why there are rumors that are unfavorable to Jingchang is because Jingchang is too young and has no credit. Li Jinglong is also very romantic, but no one spreads rumors about him. ”

"If there is a battle, it will be good, and I will fight again, and I will make a contribution so that I can be knighted." Xu Jingchang said. He is also willing to fight, before the battle of the Manchurian Boyi, he relied on his military exploits and He Rong to give the face of the Xu family from the Wupin Wuluo General Rank, and was appointed as a real post of the Wupin Thousand Households.

With the official position of Qianhu, he is even less likely to die in a war in the future, as long as he makes some military exploits, and his father makes some contributions, he may be able to get a knighthood, even if it is a liujue.

"Then if there is another war, I will tell Your Majesty to let you go to war." Miaojin said with a smile.

"Dad, big brother, you can't eat idle in the capital like this anymore." Baoqin, who was named Concubine Ming, said to her father and eldest brother.

"When Your Majesty first ascended the throne, I was also worried that Your Majesty would definitely be crowned King of Wen Yao in a place overseas in the future, although Your Majesty would definitely send someone to assist, but it would be better to have your own family to support him."

"I was afraid that Your Majesty would not want your relatives to be in a high position, but Your Majesty's reuse of the Xue family, the Xu family, and even Yun Concubine's brother have been promoted, so it can be seen that Your Majesty doesn't care about this, so you also have to make meritorious contributions and be promoted."

Listening to Baoqin's words, her father Ye Zigao and brother Ye Yiwei both looked at her in surprise. In the middle, she wants them to eat in peace in Beijing and maintain the relationship with the Chang family; But now she suddenly offered to let them work hard to fight and be rewarded for their meritorious service.

"But Ah Mei, we are following Zheng Guogong now, and it is almost impossible for Zheng Guogong to be sent out to fight. How do we receive rewards for our meritorious service? Ye Yiwei said.

"Zheng Guogong will not go out to fight, and the generals under Zheng Guogong will not go out to fight? When Duchess Zheng Guo enters the palace again, I will find an opportunity to talk to her and ask her to tell Zheng Guogong that there will be another battle in the Ming Dynasty, and I recommend you. Baoqin said. Although Duchess Zheng Guo Hu will not enter the palace to meet her, it is not difficult for her to find an opportunity to meet Hu.

But Ye Yiwei and Ye Zigao still looked embarrassed. Baoqin glanced at them a few times and said, "You still don't want to?" Zheng Guogong personally recommended you to his generals, and his generals naturally won't let you be in too dangerous places out of affection, so that you may be injured and killed in battle, so what else is there to be unwilling? ”

"However, no matter how small the possibility of being wounded and dying in battle, it is possible to die in battle." Ye Zigao said.

This was the real reason why he was reluctant to fight: he could die in battle. They are not people who are too hungry to eat, and they are not people who were born in military families and have been fighting wars for a living, and now they have a military post in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies in the capital, and they are actually doing civilian work, how comfortable it is, why should they risk their lives to fight?

"You guys." Baoqin said with some annoyance. She has always treated her father and brother as marionettes, and they will do whatever she says, but she didn't expect that marionettes would also resist!

Baoqin was silent for a moment, regained his composure and said with a slightly annoyed look: "Since you are like this, then I won't say anything, you continue to eat in the capital." ”

But she thought in her heart: When there is another war, I will tell him when His Majesty comes to rest in my palace, let you go to war!" When the time comes, it will be up to you.

Baoqin does not value her relatives as much as she usually appears. She had already broken off her family ties with her family when her parents decided to send her to her master as a slave. The reason why she also attaches more importance to family affection is because her two masters, Chang Yuchun's wife Lan and Yun Xi, attach great importance to family affection, and relatives are still useful to her. If it weren't for that, she would never have answered her loved ones, and now she only values her own children.

So she didn't care about the possibility that her father and brother might die on the battlefield. If they keep eating like this, it will be of no use to her who has already entered the palace, so what's the point of keeping them?

But Ye Zigao and Ye Yiwei didn't know what Baoqin was thinking in their hearts, and when they heard that she didn't persuade them to go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, they breathed a sigh of relief and talked to her about the short things in their parents. Huqin also said cooperatively.

"Sister!" Li Jiqian saw the figure of his sister Li Sha'er and said excitedly.

"Big brother!" Li Shaer also responded very excitedly.

Li Jiqian walked quickly to Li Sha'er, as if he wanted to hug her; But when he came over, he looked at her stomach in surprise and said, "You, should it be?" ”

Li Sha'er walked in front of Li Jiqian very slowly, and said with a smile after hearing his words: "Big brother, that's right, I'm pregnant." ”

Li Jiqian hurriedly said: "In this case, you still came out to see what I was doing, and you didn't take good care of it in the palace." He said as he helped her to sit down. The palace maid beside Li Sha'er frowned, but didn't say anything.

None of their brothers and sisters paid attention to the expressions of the palace maids on the side, and Li Sha'er said: "It's only a few steps from Zhongcui Palace to here, and you can still sit and walk over, it's not in the way." And His Majesty said that pregnant women should not lie or sit all the time, and that it is good to be active in ordinary times. ”

Li Jiqian swallowed back the sentence 'Your Majesty often puts forward all kinds of strange ideas' and asked, "How many months have you been?" ”

"It's been five months." Li Sha'er smiled.

"Anyway, be careful." Li Jiqian instructed.

"Hmm." Li Sha'er nodded.

After that, Li Jiqian and Li Shaer talked about family affairs. But Li Sha'er could see that Li Jiqian seemed to have something to tell her, so she asked, "Big brother, do you have anything to say to me?" ”

"Huh? No, no. Li Jiqian flatly denied it.

"Big brother, I'm not stupid, you definitely have something to say to your sister just now." Li Sha'er said.

Li Jiqian lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and said: "Sister, I want to transfer the water division from the right guard of the water division to the water division in the Liangguang area. ”

"Why?" Li Sha'er asked.

"Because I'm not used to life right now." Li Jiqian said: "When I was fighting and garrisoning in Nanyang before, although there were also military discipline constraints, the officials turned a blind eye to the war, and the war was exciting enough, not much worse than being a pirate before." ”

"But after entering the right guard of the Marine Division, even if you go out to patrol, you can't get a fight, and even the pirates see the East China Sea Division of the Ming Dynasty from afar, and the military discipline is too strict, I can't stand it."

"It's different in the Guangdong area. There are many islands in the South China Sea, and even if the South China Sea Navy Division exterminated the pirates north of Sansha Island, there are still many pirate activities, and they are not afraid of not having a fight. ”

Li Sha'er understood her eldest brother's thoughts. He has been a pirate since he was a child, and he has become accustomed to that kind of life, and he cannot live under the strict discipline of the army.

"But ...... danger?" Li Sha'er said.

"It's not dangerous." Li Jiqian said: "The ship of the Daming Sailor is much better than that of the pirates, and it will not sink easily, as long as the ship does not sink, I am not in any danger as a thousand households." ”

Although Li Sha'er was still a little reluctant to let her eldest brother go to Guangdong, she still accepted the matter and asked, "Do you want me to tell Your Majesty?" ”

"No, I apply for a transfer normally. If not, let's talk about it. Li Jiqian said.
