“Big Brother, Sister-in-law, Yun’ er, and Hongyi are in love. I want to propose marriage to you. Please marry Yun’ er to Hongyi.”
Xiao Ying’s words were like thunder in a dry land. Su Qi ng then remembered her uncle’s master’s prophecy and felt highly regretful. She would have insisted on taking Yun ‘er away if she had known earlier. Now that she had been careless, could she still make up for it?
Xiao Zeyu wasn’t too shocked. He liked Hongyi very much. He was good at literature and martial arts and had outstanding looks. In the future, he would also be the king of a country. Moreover, marrying Yun’ er to Hongyi would be a closer relationship. Xiao Ying would dote on Yun’ er as if she were her daughter.
This was the best. Otherwise, he would not quickly marry Yun’ er to anyone!
“Big Brother, Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I can guarantee that Hongyi will never take a concubine.”
Yeluchun guaranteed for his son. He knew that this was what his brother-in-law cared about the most.
“Is that so? You have this guarantee…”
Xiao Zeyu was tempted, but he didn’t immediately agree. Instead, he looked at
Su Qing,
“Qing ‘ er, what do you think?”
“It’s easy to give birth to deformed children if you marry close relatives.”
Su Qing repeated the words with a straight face. Xiao Zeyu laughed,
“This is a piece of cake for Qing ‘ er!”
Su Qing glared at him and said,
“I thank you for praising me. Can’t you tell I don’t want Yun ‘er to marry far away?”
“Xiao Ying, Yun’er is still too young. I don’t want her to get married so early.” Su Qing tactfully refused. Xiao Ying’s eyes dimmed. She thought that she could keep a relative by her side. Forget it. Sister-in-law was right. Yun’ er was so cute. As a mother, how could she bear to let her marry far away?
However, her son had already deeply loved Yun ‘er. She did not know what he would do if they were separated.
Xiao Ying sighed and said to Su Qing,
Sister-in-law, I understand. I’ll persuade Li’er.
Xiao Zeyu glanced at Su Qing and said nothing, respecting her opinion.
He could not bear to let Yun’ er marry so far away.
But then, Uncle’s Master had said that Yun’ er would marry far away. Human factors would not break up a marriage that heaven destined.
Yeluchun could tell that Su Qing was unwilling, so he couldn’t force her to do
He smiled and said,
“Big Brother, Sister-in-law, it must have been hard for you to come here. I’ve prepared some wine for you to celebrate your arrival. Let’s have a good drink.”
“Alright.”
Xiao Zeyu smiled and nodded. He knew that Yeluchun was trying to avoid awkwardness by changing the topic. When the group arrived at the banquet hall, they saw that the table was filled with fine wine and delicacies.
As soon as everyone sat down, they saw Yun’ er walking in like a red cloud in a fiery red dress. When she saw her father and mother, Yun’ er smiled happily and said in a cute voice,
“Greetings, Imperial Father, Greetings, Imperial Mother. When I heard you were here, I thought they were lying to me!”
Yun’ er had grown taller in just a few months and became a slender and elegant lady. Her face was not as fair as it was in the capital. It was as red as a fresh apple. That bright smile, those sparkling eyes, and the smile in her eyes showed she was happier in the grasslands than in the capital.
“Sit down!”
Su Qing felt slightly sad when she saw her daughter become more confident and happy after leaving them. Children were destined to leave their parents when they grew up, just like a little bird that would fly away from its nest when it grew up to find its sky.
“Greetings mother, greetings father.”
Zi Song was dressed as a herdsman from Tartan, carrying a fine iron bow on his back and wearing deerskin boots as he followed behind his sister. He smiled and greeted his parents with the etiquette of Tartan.
“Ha, not bad. You look like a little man.”
Xiao Zeyu was happy to see his second son as strong as a bull. The men of the grasslands were all muscular and full of masculinity. The current Zi Song was even more heroic than when he was in the capital.
“Thank you, Imperial Father.”
Zi Song was very proud after being praised by his father. His big black eyes shone with confidence. He was tanned, but he looked more manly.
Hong Yi waited for the siblings to pay their respects to their parents before coming over to greet his uncle and aunt with the etiquette of the Tartan Kingdom. Su Qing looked at him coldly.
However, from the bottom of her heart, although Hongyi was only fourteen years old, she had already noticed the appearance of an emperor. He was cold, steady, and very elegant.
After seeing a dragon, who would like a worm?
This was what Su Qing was most worried about. In modern times, he had seen couples whose parents separated. Some of them could not bear the pain and committed suicide, while others went crazy!
She loved her daughter and did not want to see such a sunny and happy daughter become like that because of her.
This meal tasted like wax to Su Qing.
Zi Song and Yun’ er were by their side when they returned to the palace at night. Yun’ er was beaming with joy as she told them about her happiness in the grasslands over the past few months. Zi Song, like her sister, fell in love with Tartan. Neither of them wanted to return to the capital.
“In the winter of the Tartan Kingdom, the dripping water turns into ice. Half a year is winter. The spring and autumn winds are so strong they can blow people away. It isn’t easy to eat fresh vegetables. Eating beef and mutton every day will make people get angry.”
Su Qing expressionlessly told the two siblings about the bad things about Tartan. Who knew that not only were the two little ones not afraid to shout for them to go home, but they were even more excited?
“Winter is great. There’s snow and ice. Hunting is enjoyable. We can even sit on the snow sled and play. We’re still looking forward to snow!”
II II
For the first time, Su Qing felt helpless. It was okay if her daughter liked this barren land because of love, but why did her son also fall in love with this place?
The next day, Yeluchun once again brought up the matter of the marriage between the two countries to Xiao Zeyu. He mainly wanted to pass on this relationship for generations to come. The two countries would always be family, and their flesh and blood would be connected.
This had escalated to politics. Xiao Zeyu also felt that this was a good idea. He took the initiative to be a lobbyist for his sister and brother-in-law.
“I’ll repeat it. I’ll have to wait until Yun’ er is 18 years old. If they can’t be separated in four years, I’ll agree to them being together.
Su Qing had compromised once again. It was equivalent to slapping herself in the face. When her uncle’s master said that Yun’ er would marry far away, she said she would not allow it.
Xiao Zeyu told his sister and brother-in-law about Su Qing’s thoughts. Xiao Ying and Yelu Chun knew this was an excuse, and their sister-in-law disagreed. They could only tell their son and see what he thought.
“Your son is willing to wait for cousin for four years.”
Yelu Hongyi wouldn’t marry anyone other than Yun ‘er. He would even wait eight to ten years, let alone four years.
When Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu left Tartan, they took Yun ‘er. Zi Song couldn’t go no matter what. He insisted on staying in Tartan. Since he didn’t need to inherit the throne, Xiao Zeyu let his son do as he pleased.
Time passed very quickly. Four years had passed in the blink of an eye. During these four years, Su Qing developed simple farming machines, which increased farming efficiency by ten times. The husband and wife led the people to grow ten thousand mu of fertile land. The people of the Central Plains no longer had to starve. They lived a prosperous and happy life.
Four years later, Ziqi married his cousin Zhang Shilin. On the wedding day, all the countries came to congratulate them. The new emperor of Tartan, Yelu Hongyi, came. Yelu Chun also learned from Xiao Zeyu and retired to be the retired emperor. He brought Xiao Ying on a tour of the mountains and rivers. Yelu Hongyi did not get married in these four years, and Yun’ er did not. The two of them were more affectionate than gold. Su Qing saw they were in love, so she agreed to marriage.
A year later, Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu had grandchildren, and the Great Tang had become a world-famous golden age.
Su Qing had set up medical centers in various cities to benefit the people with her medical skills, becoming a female Bodhisattva for the country’s people. Occasionally, people would talk about the Empress’s glory on the battlefield, becoming a Saint Empress, which was unprecedented in history!
