Chapter 284： finalize the itinerary

Pei Xiu said with a smile: "It's good to have Teacher Chen to supervise you, otherwise if your father leaves for a month, you will be lazy again."

"Dad is leaving? Where are you going?" They were all curious. Dad has never left since he went to the border once last year.

"You'll find out in a few days. If your father isn't at home, you have to be good and don't cause trouble, or I won't be able to hold back your mother."

The boss wondered, "Why can't you say it now?"

"Because it's still a secret now." Zhou Cheng glanced at them a few times, why are you so long-winded?

"Oh." Now they all kept their mouths shut and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

The palace is closely and low-key preparing for the trip. There were many well-informed people in the city, and it gradually spread that the prince would bring his family to Beijing to celebrate his birthday.

Within a few days, the palace calmly announced the news that he was going to Beijing to congratulate the emperor on his birthday, but the specific travel time was not announced, and only the officials and generals were notified privately.

Zhou Cheng also came back and told Pei Xiu that they had finalized everything. April 20, ten days later, was a good day to travel, and the departure time had been set.

"Are all the masters of the palace going?" After all, I'm getting older this year, and it's not an exaggeration for all the members to go.

"No, the lord only brought the princess and the prince's family into Beijing. The other princes stayed behind, this time is not the whole birthday. On the 60th birthday, several princes have been there, so they won't bring it this time. The palace also needs the master to sit in charge. ."

"There are a lot of people fighting right and wrong. That's fine. Only the sons and grandsons are brought along."

"It's easy for you to think, how many dragon sons have been born in the current 40 years of reign, there are thirteen people who are adults, and there are also minors. What's more, the dragon son has a dragon grandson, and the royal family will fight at any time. Not less."

"It's amazing today!" After speaking, he said in a low voice, "It's a bit miserable to be the prince."

Zhou Cheng also smiled and nodded, and said in a low voice, "The prince was abolished once. Although he was reinstated, his life was trembling, and he was afraid that he would..."

"So what if he's close to the throne? He's not as comfortable as a few vassal kings. At least he doesn't have to live under his nose. There's no one else who has been a prince for decades. It's estimated that he's going to be depressed."

His daughter-in-law was really bold and dared to say anything, but fortunately she was in the house and her voice was soft.

"You and I are not allowed to say such things in the future." I don't know if everything is finalized, and in a good mood, he is no longer as cautious as he used to speak.

"I know, I will whisper a few words to you in private." This is not the world of the previous life, you can comment on the leaders and speak freely. She needs to keep her mouth shut at all times, lest misfortune come out of her mouth.

"Well, you can help me pack two sets of clothes and change them. I don't need too much. I will basically wear military armor by then."

"Understood, I will prepare it for you."

A few days ago, several children heard the news that the palace was going to Beijing from their classmates in the academy. It suddenly dawned on me, no wonder their mother said that father would be away for a while.

It turned out to be accompanying him to Beijing to celebrate his birthday. This is a good thing. You can go to the capital to see Jinshang. I didn't expect that such a good thing would also have a father's share.

That night they excitedly ran back to ask their parents.

Seeing that they all heard about it, Pei Xiu stopped hiding, "Well, your father is going to Beijing with the palace team."

The boss was itching, "It would be nice if we could go to the capital anytime."

She couldn't help but flicked his head, "What are you thinking about, you may not have a chance in your life, maybe a few of them still have a chance."

"Why?" The boss widened his eyes, unable to believe that the mother actually said that.

"Because you are not good at reading, they are better than you and have a better chance."

The second child and the others also reacted that the opportunity that mother said was to go to Beijing to take the exam?

"Then I can protect them to go together." He said naturally.

Pei Xiu tapped his head again, and said angrily, "It's not promising! You should study hard and learn martial arts first."

The boss touched his forehead and stopped saying a word, while a few younger brothers snickered.

"Mother, can you ask Dad to bring us some delicious food from the capital, something fun?" The third child looked at her with bright eyes.

"Then tell your father yourself."

Zhou Cheng glanced at his mother a few times and said nothing.

The third child hesitated, peeking at his father, wanting to see how he was feeling now. However, his father, as always, has only one expression, how can he see it.

The brothers looked at him encouragingly, so he had no choice but to drive the ducks onto the shelves, plucked up the courage to run to his father's side, and called his father with a bright smile...

"Yeah." Zhou Cheng glanced at him and replied with a blank expression.

"Father, we are all very curious about what the capital looks like."

"I am also very curious."

Pei Xiu couldn't help but almost laughed. He didn't expect Zhou Cheng to have such a funny side.

"Dad, you'll see it soon, we won't see it yet."

"So..." He raised his eyebrows.

"So you can come back and bring us some delicious food in the capital, as well as interesting things."

"I have no money." Zhou Cheng touched his chin and looked at him with interest.

The third child was swallowed and his eyes widened, "Did your mother give you pocket money? You ask your mother for it. How can a manly man have empty pockets when he goes out. Mother is too much, you have to protest."

Pei Xiu couldn't help rolling her eyes. Your mother was still beside you, so you instigated your father. Do you want to be beaten?

She coughed dryly.

The third child smiled at her dog-leggedly.

"Why should I give you the pocket money your mother gave me, don't you have it yourself?"

The third child clutched his pocket and glared at his father: "Ours is ours. It is only right for me to buy gifts for my son."

"It's only natural for a son to honor Laozi. If he wants to bring something, he will give money. I don't know if I will be free at that time."

A few boys couldn't believe it~ Their father blatantly wanted to loot their pocket money.

Although the mother gave them a monthly increase this year, one or two silver a month, but they still have to buy pen, ink and paper, except for the New Year's money, they have not saved much money.

Pei Xiu couldn't help laughing at the side. It was the first time he saw Zhou Cheng teasing a few children so casually, which showed that he was in a really good mood recently.

The boys looked at Pei Xiu pitifully.

She narrowed her eyes with a smile, "You can discuss it with your father, I don't care."

They looked at each other and said hesitantly, "Then let's think about it."

Zhou Cheng raised the corners of his mouth and looked at these boys with a smile on his face. He didn't care what they were going to discuss, it was just to tease them.

Pei Xiu shook his head, these idiots were going to start counting money when they went back.
