RNP Chapter 773
Chapter 773
On the morning of the third day after returning to Shenjing, Zhou Yuan returned home late.
To be honest, he felt somewhat apologetic, but he also comforted himself. This was a special case. After all, Qinshui had given birth to a child, and he should go to see her first.
The problem with the senior sister was of great importance, and it had to be solved as quickly as possible before accompanying Jianjia and the others.
The moment he entered the Duke's Mansion, the family members gathered around him. Jianjia, Ziyuan, Qingyuan and the two mothers-in-law, along with a group of maids, welcomed Zhou Yuan joyfully.
Zhou Yuan greeted them warmly first, and then found the problem.
"Huh? Where are Qu Ling and Ningyue? I miss Mo Xiang, where did she go?"
He was a little confused. Did Ningyue go to the Imperial Hospital?
Did Qu Ling go to Mo Yunzhai?
Zhao Jianjia smiled and said, "They went to the south and have been gone for seven or eight days."
"The destination is Xiangzhou. They thought you would not return to Beijing and would go directly to Xiangzhou."
Zhou Yuan opened his mouth and said, "Ah... so..."
He took Jianjia's hand and walked inside, but he felt a little uncomfortable.
Qu Ling is active by nature. It should be her idea to go to the south to find me, but Ningyue would go with her...
After being away from home for many years, the couple is rarely together. Their longing for each other has gradually become uncontrollable.
Over the years, I, Zhou Yuan, have worked for my senior sister and the people of the world, but what have I done for my family?
These thoughts lingered in his heart, making him feel a little guilty.
"Don't let your imagination run wild."
Seeming to have seen what he was thinking, Zhao Jianjia squeezed his hand and whispered, "Husband, Ningyue and Qu Ling miss you on the one hand, and they also want to go out for a walk and have some fun on the other hand, so they chose Xiangzhou first, because they want to see Ruan Zhi."
Her eyes were clear, with a quiet smile on her face, and her eyebrows were full of tenderness.
The voice was also very delicate: "Husband, you have done a lot of meaningful things over the years. When we go out, we are always loved by the people."
"You have always been our pride."
Zhou Yuan held her hand tightly, and finally couldn't help hugging her, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry, Jianjia, I should go home as soon as possible. Sometimes, I am not thoughtful enough."
Zhao Jianjia smiled and said: "This time the situation is special. After all, Sister Qinshui gave birth to a child, and you should go to see her."
"Husband, we don't blame you for anything, and we don't have any resentment in our hearts. We just miss you."
"Don't feel burdened by this, you have done enough."
Zhou Yuan felt that he was not worthy of these words. He just hugged Jianjia and digested the emotions that surged in his heart.
After a long time, he sighed deeply and said, "I will end all this as soon as possible. The busy time will not be too long."
Zhao Jianjia smiled and said, "Yes, I prefer you to talk like this. It seems confident and powerful. It also gives us hope, and we will feel more at ease."
"Husband, in fact, my mother taught me a lot."
They walked in this huge mansion. Zhao Jianjia's voice was calm and warm: "Calm, patient, careful, there are many things I didn't have before, but slowly, I will also."
"Sometimes I recall the past, thinking about the time we first got along, those misunderstandings and small awkwardness, which makes people laugh."
"Time will heal everything, as long as life changes in a good direction."
"Husband, Dajin and us are getting better, aren't they?"
Zhou Yuan nodded and said, "Jianjia, to be honest, I am a little emotional."
Zhao Jianjia said, "Then you should say everything in your heart. I am your wife. "My wife, you should tell me everything."
"Unless you trust other women more than your wife."
Zhou Yuan held her hand tightly and shook his head, saying, "It's not like that. I just think too much most of the time."
"I don't want to bring you bad news, and I don't want to tell you about the difficulties I encountered. I only report good news and not bad news, so that you won't be depressed with me."
"But now I think it's wrong to do so. It's self-righteous arrogance."
"Doing so seems to take care of your emotions and is good for you."
"In fact, it will only make you more uneasy and more empty."
At this point, he smiled bitterly and said, "I have made many mistakes over the years, and I didn't do many things well."
Zhao Jianjia said, "For example?"
Zhou Yuan said, "For example, when I first got along with you, I should have been more sincere, and I shouldn't have deliberately tricked you."
Zhao Jianjia just covered her mouth and smiled. She had obviously figured out what happened in Yunzhou.
Zhou Yuan continued: "For example, when treating Qin Shui, I gave her a lot of unnecessaryPressure. "
"For example, in the battle to recover the Central Plains, I might have a better way, and maybe fewer people would die."
"For example, when Huang Taiji surrounded Shenjing, I might have done better. "
"For example..."
Zhao Jianjia covered his mouth and shook her head gently.
She looked at Zhou Yuan with a watery gaze and whispered, "Husband, what do you think of yourself?"
"Among the millions of people in the world, who is perfect? Am I? Is Sister Ningyue perfect? Is Your Majesty perfect?"
"Everyone has their own shortcomings, and saints have made mistakes, so there is a saying that we should reflect on ourselves three times a day, and that there is no greater good than to correct mistakes."
"You say this, but you are just adding pressure to yourself, and you are just worrying about nothing."
She hugged Zhou Yuan and said softly, "We don't love the Duke of Weiguo or the Grand Marshal, we love you who is alive. "
Under the sun, Zhao Jianjia felt sorry for her husband and couldn't help asking, "Has anything happened recently? So you're in a bad mood?"
Zhou Yuan was silent for a long time.
Finally, he shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm in a bad mood, but... some things, only when they come, will you know the real taste and feeling. "
"For example, I have been planning and want to make my own decisions. "
"Now that I have finally made my own decisions, I suddenly feel an inexplicable pressure. "
"There are no bigger figures above, and there is no excuse for everything. Wrong is wrong, right is right, and even the psychological retreat does not exist. "
"There is no retreat, no excuse, and I am completely responsible, so there is naturally pressure. "
"In the final analysis, I am not sure about the situation at sea. "
Zhao Jianjia said, "Six battleships and four cruisers, isn't that enough? "
Zhou Yuan was filled with emotion.
The fact that Jianjia even knew all this news showed that she was also paying attention to the general situation in the world and had learned about the current situation through Qu Ling.
She has never been interested in these things. To learn about them, it can only be... wanting to be closer to me.
Zhou Yuan had never noticed this detail before.
"Not enough."
Zhou Yuan sighed, "Not only are there not enough warships, but we... don't understand this. Everything starts from scratch. Our experience, technology, analysis and control of the war situation are not as good as the other side."
"We can only explore step by step, and this requires a price."
Zhao Jianjia thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Husband, can you accompany me to the Imperial Academy tomorrow?"
Zhou Yuan looked at her, a little confused.
Zhao Jianjia said, "I will go there occasionally to listen to classes, so I know the situation there."
"Some young people, especially Bai Yu, want to see you. "
Bai Yu? The fourteen-year-old prodigy?
Zhou Yuan thought about it and nodded: "Okay."
In any case, even if he was just to accompany Jianjia, he should go.
