Chapter 652 [Extra] If life were just like the first time we met (14)

After Li Xiang left, Pingyang accompanied his children and grandchildren for the period of filial piety, and then discussed with his son to return to Yizhou.

At this time, Pingyang's eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law had passed away, and his eldest brother's eldest son Zhao Yicheng inherited the throne. Originally, in the generation of Pingyang's eldest brother Zhao Xuan, the princely title of Pingyang's natal family would be downgraded, but Pingyang's eldest sister-in-law Xie was a shrewd person. When she was alive, she encouraged her husband Zhao Xuan to contribute a lot to the court. Therefore, the emperor recognized her lineage's merits and allowed his descendants to inherit the honor of three generations of princes. Therefore, when Zhao Xuan's son found Yicheng, he He is still a prince.

Pingyang’s eldest daughter Qing Jieer married Zhao Yicheng and is now Princess Yongqin.

 So although there are currently no parents or brothers in Prince Yong's palace, Pingyang's nephew is the king and his daughter is the princess. She wants to return to Yizhou, and Brother Heng agreed.

Knowing that Pingyang was going back to Yizhou to spend his old age, many people from Yizhou came to help him. As the vassal king, Zhao Yicheng could not leave without permission, so Sister Qing brought her two brothers-in-law to Beijing to pick up her mother. There is another person, Pei Yunqian's adopted son, Pei Jun.

After Li Ling regained the Gaoshan Kingdom, he changed its name to Yuzhou. Pei Yunqian and a group of ministers and soldiers were ordered to go and govern it. Because of Pei Yunqian's outstanding political achievements, he was later granted the title of marquis by Li Ling. Pei Yunqian had already become a feudal prince in his middle age. Official.

Although Pei Yunqian became a marquis and prime minister and achieved immortal achievements, he never married a wife. He only adopted a son from a close family member who would inherit his title, and that was Pei Jun.

Although Pei Jun is not Pei Yunqian's biological son, because he is the son of Pei Yunqian's cousin, Pei Jun looks very similar to Pei Yunqian.

The moment Pingyang saw Pei Jun, she was stunned for a while, and subconsciously called out: "Cousin, is that you?"

Pei Yunqian has not returned to Beijing since he left for Yuzhou. At this time, Pingyang has been separated from him for more than thirty years.

Seeing this, Sister Qing rushed forward to support her mother and replied with a smile: "Mom, he is a cousin of the Pei family and my cousin's adopted son."

The young man is very handsome and looks very much like the cousin from the Pei family who was haunted all day when he was a girl in Pingyang.

Pingyang's eyes stayed greedily on Pei Jun's face for a long time. She said with a helpless smile: "It turns out that my eyesight is dim and I recognized the wrong person."

Pei Jun smiled brightly, his handsome face was as clear as the sky. He bowed to Pingyang with a proper junior salute and replied: "Aunt, as a guard general, my father cannot leave his post without permission. I am following my father's orders. My cousin is here to take you back to Yizhou, and father is waiting for you in Yizhou."

Pingyang is now at an age where he is occasionally confused.

 After hearing Pei Jun's words, her originally dark eyes shone with light and asked, "Where is cousin Pei in Yizhou?"

At this time, most of the states and counties in Yuzhou had been annexed to Yizhou, and Pei Yunqian's Marquis Mansion was located in Yucheng, where Prince Yong's Mansion was located.

Pei Jun smiled and replied: "Pei Hou's Mansion is in Yucheng. My father learned that my aunt is going back to Yizhou, so he is looking forward to it every day."

"I'll go back right now." When Pingyang heard this, she immediately stood up and ordered to the serving maids: "Quickly go and invite Yuzhu over and tell her that we have to go back to Yizhou now." Brother is waiting for me there, I can’t waste a moment.”

Sister Qing supported her mother and advised her, "My mother is going back to her parents' home. Naturally, she has to clean up properly. There is no need to be in such a hurry."

"How can you not be in a hurry?" Pingyang glared at his daughter and muttered: "Your father has passed away. I don't have to be trapped here anymore. I can't wait for a moment. I want to go back to Yizhou."

Sister Qing turned her face away, wiped her tears secretly, and said with a smile, "Okay, I will take my mother back to Yizhou right now."

Just as he was talking, Yuzhu was supported by the girls to the main house and met Sister Qing. She excitedly said to Pingyang: "Old madam, I heard that we are going back to Yizhou. Is it true?"

Pingyang pulled the old servant and said hurriedly with a smile: "It's true, it's true. Cousin Pei is waiting in Yizhou." Knowing that his mother insisted on returning to Yizhou, Brother Heng had already ordered someone to make it for his mother. He bought a stable and spacious carriage and horses. Although Pingyang is old, he can still tolerate sitting in such a carriage.

 A group of carriages and horses left the capital and slowly headed south.

Since Li Xiang's death, Pingyang's energy level has never been the same as before. She handed over the reins of the family to her daughter-in-law early and can finally have some free time. She is asleep for half of the day.

 Occasionally when I am sober, I often feel confused.

But along the way, Pingyang was in surprisingly good spirits. She opened the car window and looked at the scenery outside with interest.

It’s spring, and the scenery becomes more and more pleasant as you go south.

Pingyang admired the scenery and always talked to the old servant: "Yuzhu, do you still remember that that year, cousin Pei took me back to Yizhou, and we stayed here. Take a look, over there The forest was just planted when we passed by it that year, haha, look at it, it has grown into towering trees now."

"Yuzhu, do you still remember? That time, cousin Pei took me back to Yizhou. When we passed by here, it rained and the bridge was washed away. We waited here for two days."

“Look, Yuzhu, my cousin Pei once bought me the snacks that the vendors at the market shouted. They are very delicious.”

 When he said these words, Pingyang's eyes were filled with stars, and his face was filled with a happy smile.

 Pei Jun, who was riding beside the car, saw this, got off his horse and went to the stall to buy the snacks Pingyang mentioned. He held it with both hands and came to the front of the car and handed it to Pingyang.

 Pingyang quickly took the snack, with a cheerful smile on his face, and replied to Pei Jun: "Thank you, cousin Pei."

Sister Qing glanced at Pei Jun outside the car, smiled and made up for her mother: "My mother is confused again, cousin, don't blame me."

After traveling on the road for more than half a month, the group finally arrived at Qushui. After passing Qushui, they reached the territory of Yizhou.

In order to reduce bumps on the road, the carriages and horses Pingyang rode were very wide. The bridge over the winding water could not accommodate such wide carriages and horses.

Sister Qing was well prepared. She helped her mother get out of the car and placed her properly in a pavilion by the water. Then she ordered someone to replace the carriage and horse her mother was riding in with a lighter one.

Sister Qing and others were directing the servants and housekeepers here when they suddenly heard Pingyang sitting in the pavilion call: "Cousin Pei, he is here."

Everyone followed the sound and saw a man and a horse on the other side of the Qushui River.

Because they were far apart, Pei Jun recognized them carefully for a long time, and then said to Sister Qing beside him: "Cousin, he is really my father." After saying that, he glanced at Pingyang again and murmured: "My cousin's eyes are so cute. It’s great that even I couldn’t see clearly from such a distance, but my cousin actually recognized her at a glance.”

Sister Qing smiled, and before she could go over to help her mother, Pingyang had already walked over and said hurriedly: "I won't take the carriage anymore. My cousin is here, and I'll go see him right away."

With that said, Pingyang ignored everyone's obstruction and insisted on walking towards the bridge.
