I'm a marquis in Datang

The son travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried

After Du Qi left the palace, he didn't go straight home, but went to the tea shop in a carriage, and called Jin Wuque and Qian Zailai, Qianxue and Cai Youde were there, and Du Qi's team had all arrived.

Facing the crowd, Du Qi said slowly: "I have just been summoned by His Majesty to serve as an envoy to the northern Turks. I will not be in Chang'an for quite a long time in the future."

"When I'm not in Chang'an, you each take charge of your own affairs, so you don't have to report."

"If you encounter any difficult things to solve, go directly to the Chang'an County Government to ask Wang Minzhi for help. Your Majesty personally

The decree is to Wang Minzhi, let him help you deal with things. "

Du Qi said seriously: "So once you encounter something, he is duty-bound to help."

Qianxue said worriedly: "My lord, the Turkic people are cruel and often invade the border. It must be very dangerous for you to go as an envoy now. At this age, you are not suitable to be an envoy. How can you go?"

Du Qidao: "There is no other way, I have to go. His Majesty has ordered me to serve as deputy envoy. Under such a premise, it is impossible to refuse."

When Qianxue heard the words, she was saddened.

In her heart, she was worried about Du Qi's safety.

Qianxue thought for a while, then suddenly said: "My lord, I will go with you, and I will take care of your daily life when you go to the northern Turkic region. After all, in today's tea shop, there is shopkeeper Cai, even if there is no me, there is no problem."

"do not!"

When Du Qi heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

Qian Xue taking care of his daily life?

Don't wait until the end, he is the one who takes care of Qianxue's daily life.What's more, going deep into the Turks in the north, Qianxue is even more inappropriate as a woman.

Du Qidao: "You stay in Chang'an and handle the tea shop well."

Qian Xue said: "Young master despise me?"

Du Qi didn't answer this matter at all, and said directly: "In short, you stay in Chang'an. There is no room for negotiation on this matter, so it's settled, you know?"

"Yes!"

Qian Xue heard the words and said no more.

Cai Youde is neither indecisive nor sentimental.Since what was set, he knew he couldn't change it, so he said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will help Miss Qianxue well."

Jin Wuque said: "My lord, I will handle the matter of the restaurant well, and I won't let you down."

Qian Zailai frowned.

Tea shops and restaurants are easy to manage, but today's Xinhua Wenxuan is supported by Du Qi alone.Once Du Qi leaves, then this Xinhua Wenxuan will definitely be greatly affected.

Qian Zailai said worriedly: "Young Master, you are going to go on an envoy now. What should you do with the two books Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Gods in the bookstore?"

Du Qi chuckled, and said, "Whether it's the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or the Romance of the Gods, I have enough saved manuscripts. According to the current update speed, the saved manuscripts are at least enough for one or two months. Later, you follow me Go get the latest chapter."

"Yes!"

When Qian came back and heard the words, he was finally relieved.

With Du Qi, he would be relieved. As long as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Gods can be updated for a month or two, then even if it is temporarily stopped, the impact will not be great.

After all, during this period of time, Qian Zailai has been digging for good books.As long as there are other books on top, even if it is not as good as Du Qi's two books, the impact will not be too great.

Du Qi arranged other things, and after talking about the restaurant, tea shop, and bookstore, he got up and left the tea shop, and went to Du's house.After all, the mission is very important, so I have to report it to my mother, Mrs. Zheng.

He was worried about Zheng's reaction.

As soon as Du Qi returned to Du's house, he went straight to Zheng's backyard.Mrs. Zheng is currently getting the soles of the shoes, which are specially made for Du Qi and his brothers. When she saw Du Qi coming, she smiled and said quickly: "Erlang is here, come, come, you are just in time, hurry up and have a try." Are these soles suitable?"

Du Qi tried on the soles, which were about the same size and just right.

After Zheng Shi took it, she nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's just right, it seems that my mother remembered correctly."

Du Qidao: "Mother, you leave these things to the people in the house, why do you do it yourself?"

Mrs. Zheng snorted, and said: "How can you give your shoes to others? I make the best ones myself. These shoes are durable. Especially your father, he goes here and there all day long, and often follows the King of Qin On the battlefield, shoes wear out quickly.

"

Du Qi listened, his nose a little sore.

Their father and son are all people that Zheng cares about.But now, he was ordered to go on a mission, and for a while, he didn't know how to say it.If he was already in his 30s and [-]s, as an official of the Tang Dynasty, it would make sense for him to go on an envoy to Turks.

Today's Du Qi is too young, and the Zheng family must not accept it.

It was difficult for Du Qi to speak.

Seeing that Du Qi had been silent all this time, Mrs. Zheng felt a little strange.In the past, when Du Qi came to the backyard, it was Barabara

He talked non-stop, but today, he didn't say anything.

Mrs. Zheng put down her needle and thread, and said, "Erlang, did something happen to you? If you encounter a difficult problem, just tell your mother that it is right, and your mother will help you solve it."

Du Qidao: "Mother, Your Majesty summoned me to serve as an envoy to the Eastern Turks in the north."

"what!"

After Zheng Shi heard it, she exclaimed.

After she was stunned for a moment, she only felt that there was darkness in front of her eyes, and her body was about to collapse on the ground.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Du Qi stepped forward at once, supported Zheng Shi, and quickly pinched him.After a while, Mrs. Zheng leisurely

After waking up, he choked up and said, "My son, the emperor is really blind, so I will let you, a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, be an envoy. Erlang, don't be afraid, mother will go to Princess Qin and ask her to take me into the palace." Go. Even if you risk your life, mother will not let you go."

In Zheng's eyes, to go to Turkic as an envoy is to die.

In any case, no.

Du Qi patted Zheng Shi on the back, comforted Zheng Shi, and said: "Mother, you can't blame Your Majesty for this matter. At that time, Your Majesty asked me if I would like to go. If I said no, Your Majesty would not force it. It was me who took the initiative to say that I was willing to go.”

"you're so dumb!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Zheng said angrily: "Erlang, you are usually very clever. Why are you acting stupid at this moment? Have you considered your mother and your father's feelings in doing this?"

Du Qi piled up a smile and said: "Mother, my son is not young anymore, he knows what to do and what not to do. Even if the father knows about this, he will only agree. Mother, although this journey is dangerous, but In fact, the risk is not great. I am only the deputy envoy, and the envoy is Changsun Shunde. With him around, I will be safe, so you can rest assured."

"You kid, really..."

After Zheng Shi heard it, she was still extremely worried.The mother who traveled thousands of miles was worried that Du Qi was the flesh that fell from her body.
