In the afternoon, Minister Yuan was ordered to go to Liangyi Hall to meet the emperor.

As soon as I entered the main hall, I saw the little granddaughter punching and kicking the saint.

Unfortunately, her little head was held down by His Majesty's hand, and the two, big and small, were at an arm's length away from each other. The little girl tried her best but couldn't hit or kick her.

The Emperor had a smug look on his face, while the retired Emperor beside him took a sip of tea with a tired look on his face.

The big and the small have been making a fuss all day, and the old man is really tired.

Minister Yuan wiped the sweat off his forehead and quickly went forward to pick up his little granddaughter.

Finally I understand why he had to be called over during the next shift.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I will take Yuan Baoer back with me."

Yuan Yuan angrily threatened: "Shimin, you are cheating!!! Come here quickly, let's fight to the death!!!"

Minister Yuan picked up the baby and ran out of the hall as if escaping.

When we arrived at Yuan's house, Yuan Yuan was still pouting.

When Old Madam Ye saw this, she was confused:

"What happened? Did something unhappy happen in the palace today?"

Yuan Shangshu said unhappily: "You are unhappy because you failed to fight with the saint..."

Madam Ye: “…”

The good grandmother advised her little granddaughter: "After all, the saint is the master of the world, so we should respect him, right?"

Yuan Yuanchao retorted loudly: "Shimin even let Uncle Duan beat me!!!"

Old Madam Ye looked surprised, then her face darkened.

"How could His Majesty act like this? Was his previous love for Yuan Bao'er just an act?"

Minister Yuan glared at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense."

"I asked, Duke Fan was ordered to supervise Yuanyuan's schooling, and Yuanyuan and the King of Yue beat him up."

Old Madam Ye looked at her little granddaughter and saw her covering her chubby face with three parts guilt and seven parts pride in her eyes.

Then I knew that what Minister Yuan said was true.

She nodded her granddaughter's head and said, "You, His Majesty is doing this for your own good. You hit someone, but you still blame His Majesty. How can that be justified?"

Yuan Yuan was not convinced: "I have lost three cents. It must be hard for my uncle to save money!"

Yuan Erlang was just stepping into the front hall when he heard his niece's words, with a puzzled look on his face:

"Ok?"

Mrs. Yuan Er came up from behind him and said with a smile, "The money you hid in the flowerpot was taken away by Yuan Yuan this morning."

Yuan Erlang: "..."

Last time, he brought egg-filled pancakes to the workshop, and his colleagues insisted on spending money to buy them from him.

He even went hungry for this.

It is indeed hard work to save.

He pulled his niece aside and comforted her: "It's lost, so it is lost. I will save it for you next time."

Yuan Yuan was so touched!

The second uncle is the best second uncle in the world!!!

"Then Uncle Er needs to save more!"

"Ah."

At worst, I’ll just go hungry for a few more meals.

The big and the small hugged each other lovingly.

At this time, Yuan Qing, dressed in military uniform, hurriedly ran in from outside.

"Grandpa, grandma, grandpa, my teacher wants me to go with him to fight the bandits. We have to leave at the beginning of the morning hour tomorrow."

The women immediately looked worried.

Mrs. Yuan heard the noise and rushed over. When she heard her daughter's words, her face turned pale.

"Why are you so anxious?"

My wife likes to wield swords and guns, and it is not easy for her to support her.

Nowadays, he has to go on military expeditions from time to time. As a mother, how can I not be worried?

Minister Yuan consoled him, "Don't panic, Duke Su is here."

Yuan Qing nodded: "It's in the Xiangzhou area, not far away. If the bandit problem is not eliminated, the people will be in turmoil."

"And Princess Changle will also be accompanying us."

If the situation is critical, His Majesty will not allow Princess Changle to go.

Madam Ye made a prompt decision: "Da Lang, go and prepare some herbs. The eldest and second daughters-in-law, come with me to pack your luggage."

Yuan Qing was deeply touched by the support of his family.

The Emperor and Empress indulged Princess Changle because of her noble status and no matter how much trouble she made, it would not prevent her from getting married.

Looking throughout the capital, the only official family that could indulge their children like this was the Yuan family.

Just as I was about to quietly wipe away my tears, suddenly, the oil paper bag in my hand shook.

Yuan Qing lowered his head and saw that the little sister's round face was almost stuck to the oil paper.

The puppy has a really good nose!

She opened the oil paper package and said, "Ah Jie and Li Fengyu developed a new dessert at the Shangshi Bureau today, called Ma Tuan. I brought it for you to try."

Yuan Yuan's saliva is about to flow down!

“It smells so good!”

When it was put into the mouth, the combination of sesame, glutinous rice and bean paste made the little kid look ecstatic.

“It’s delicious!!!”

The cute little appearance dispelled some of the worries in the elders' hearts.

***

Early the next morning, Cheng Yaojin led his troops and waited at the city gate.

After a while, Princess Changle came over with her guards.

Yuan Qing was late.

Seeing that the agreed time was approaching, Cheng Yaojin frowned slightly.

His female disciple is always punctual. Is she going to be late this time?

Will he be tried by military law later?

At the critical moment, a carriage drove over.

Cheng Yaojin was very unhappy.

Even the princess came here on horseback, so why was his female disciple coming here slowly in a carriage?

When the carriage approached, Cheng Yaojin was about to scold when Yuan Yuan ran out from the carriage.

"Second brother, second brother!!! I'm here to take you on your way!!!"

Cheng Yaojin: "???"

This is not a nice thing to say!!!

Alas, it's his fault that he has an illiterate brother.

At this time, Yuan Qing came out holding two tied-up chickens and yawned.

"Teacher, Princess, this is the farewell gift my second wife spent half the night picking out."

Yuan Yuan nodded: "It's 70 cents and 13 cents!!!"

Cheng Yaojin took the seven cents without changing his expression and handed it to the deputy general.

Princess Changle had never received such a gift before. She stared at Shisanmao and asked Yuan Yuan, "Your sister is leaving too, why didn't she give you a farewell gift?"

Yuan Qing held Thirteen Mao in one hand and pointed at the bag on his back with the other: "I'm carrying it."

Princess Changle stretched her head to look, and sure enough, she saw a chicken head that looked like it had lost all hope in life sticking out of the bundle.

She carefully took the thirteen cents.

"Fourteen Mao helped Wu Guogong in the rebellion and made great contributions. I have to take good care of Thirteen Mao, as he is the descendant of a meritorious service..."

Yuan Yuan nodded seriously: "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Shisanmao is really smart!!!"

Cheng Yaojin rode over with a smile, picked up the child, put him on the horse, and went to the side to talk in private.

The big and the small talked incoherently for a long time, while Princess Changle and Yuan Qing watched from a distance.

Duke Su was seen smiling with wrinkles on his face. He took off the jade pendant from his waist and gave it to the little boy. Then he took out a purse from his bosom and gave it to the little boy. Finally, he even took off the gem on the sword tassel and gave it to the little boy.

Princess Changle: "Now is not the time to call us evil disciples with a gloomy face... How did Yuan Baoer control the teacher?"

Yuan Qing cleared his throat and began to imitate the tone of the little sister:

"Brother, I can't bear to leave you. If you leave, I won't be able to eat or sleep!"

"You should come back soon so we can eat lamb together!"

Princess Changle: “…”

After Su Guo finished his announcement and came back, he saw two evil disciples, each holding a chicken, looking at him as if they had seen a ghost.

He first ordered his deputy to personally send his younger brother back to Yuan's residence and then catch up, then he scolded with a dark face:

"Evil disciples! Put away the chickens and prepare to leave. You have no memory of military rules and regulations!!!"

Princess Changle and Yuan Qing looked at each other, then quickly put the chickens away and joined the queue.

At Cheng Yaojin's command, an army of more than a thousand people set out in an orderly manner.
