Li Shimin jumped off the horse, Mu Qingxu saluted, and Ah Liu followed behind and bowed in an orderly manner.

The two walked to the sidelines together, watched the drill for a while, but didn't see Yinghua, Mu Qing couldn't help but ask him: "Why don't you see Yinghua?" ”

He said casually, "She only plays against me." "That tone is unquestionable, but Mu Qing was speechless for a while, and he didn't want to talk to him about Yinghua, so he hurriedly said what he agreed with Du Ruhui last night." If I teach those village women to work for nothing, it is always unreasonable, so I calculated that I would give them 100 yuan for every 10 pieces of clothing, and 1 yuan for every 100 pieces, and made 50,000 pieces, but the total was only 500 yuan. ”

Li Shimin nodded hurriedly when he heard this: "That's fine, but the rest of the things still have to be supervised by Qi Niang, and I will assign ten people to you to send, and those people brought by Lu Aliu are still used as transportation drivers, if you still need manpower, just explain it to me." ”

Mu Qing pursed his lips and smiled, "It's enough for the time being." But in his heart, he said that the young man in front of him was only in his early fifteenth year, he was already old and secure, and he was generous, and he was not like the greedy and unrighteous person, but he did not deviate much, and he was the one who would be able to bear the country in the future.

Originally, she still wanted to see Yinghua, but in front of Li Shimin, she really didn't want to mention Yinghua, so she had to give up and go back to the house to prepare for it. Mrs. Che had plenty of hands, and she didn't have much to prepare, so when she returned to the house, because she was still in good spirits, she was idle, and went to the back kitchen in person, and handled a few home-cooked dishes.

When Du Ruhui returned home in the evening, she smiled and brought a bowl of taro sour sauce, a plate of preserved pork, bamboo shoots mixed with shepherd's cabbage, and the soup cake he had always liked. As soon as he saw the food in this case, he couldn't help but say a few words again, and he should rest without permission when he was free. Mu Qing only smiled and poured wine for him, and said slowly: "In the afternoon, I will be idle and bored, and I won't find anything to do, but I'm afraid that it will be difficult to survive." ”

After the meal, the servant woman in the kitchen came to clean up the table, and after a while, Mu Qing talked to him about the summer clothes in the army, and laughed about the situation of Erlang's training today. However, Ah Liu brought a bowl of decoction that was the same as yesterday, she had not yet stretched out her hand, but Du Ruhui took a step ahead of her, reached out to take it, took a sip of it, and put it down and said it was hot. She is sweet and funny in her heart, but it is not easy to debunk, so she has to treat it as if she doesn't care at all.

This decoction was boiled according to the method instructed by the doctor, and it really had a miraculous effect, and after taking it, I felt that the fruit was deep. The next day, as soon as Yin Zheng's change was reported outside, Mu Qing woke up and sat up, her eyelids were still sour, she rubbed her eyes, the sky was not yet transparent, only a night candle outside the curtain, faintly emitting a faint light.

The people around him were still snorting heavily, so as not to wake him up, Mu Qing carefully got off the bed, sat on the edge of the couch and leaned over to reach her plain silk shoes. Suddenly felt a warmth behind her, but I didn't know when Du Ruhui had woken up, hugged her from behind, and said vaguely with sleepiness: "Why did you get up so early?" ”

"Today, I have agreed with the deputy lieutenant Su next to Erlang, go to the countryside to recruit the peasant women who make clothes, I am afraid that it will be bad if I go late, and it is not good to teach everyone to wait for me. Go to sleep, the hour is still early. ”

Du Ruhui didn't sleep, just leaned on the brocade pillow and looked at her in a daze. Mu Qing put on silk shoes and lifted the curtain a crack, left the bed and walked towards the makeup mirror. Ah Liu crept in with the toiletries, glanced inside and asked, "Ah Lang is awake?" ”

I heard Mu Qing reply to her in a low voice: "Be quiet, don't disturb him." As he spoke, the two of them silently washed their makeup and combed their buns. Du Ruhui was fully awake at this time, picked up half of the curtain, and watched her groom and makeup.

Mu Qingzi chose a jacket skirt with a cross-collar and narrow sleeves with a pine flower pigment, and Ah Liu whispered, "It's too tender, it can't be suppressed", and she chose a dark green one with small branches and dark lines among the silks, wrapped around her arm, and looked stable and calm. Ah Liu asked quietly, "What kind of bun should I comb?" ”

"Just comb a single snail low, don't use a gold hosta head, just use a few pieces of silver to beat the head." As she spoke, she reached out and took out two plain silver hairpins from the makeup and handed them to Ah Liu, and then dipped her little finger in a little swallow stick and wiped it on her lips. After a moment of dressing, the skylight was slightly released, and the thin morning light reflected in the room, with the candle flame, just to be able to see her face clearly. He laughed unconsciously, he was obviously seventeen or eighteen years old, but he deliberately pretended to be ten years old, looking like a twenty-seven or eighteen businesswoman, thinking like this suddenly gave rise to interest.

"There is nothing to do today, I will go with you." He jumped out of bed, scooped up a round-necked robe on one side, and went to wash.

Mu Qing couldn't help but hesitate, and hesitated: "I only go to the countryside to see and walk, and with Erlang's personal soldiers, I don't expect there to be any mistakes......

Aliu couldn't help but smile and went out of the house to prepare breakfast. Du Ruhui sat in front of the makeup mirror she had just sat on, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will only watch from the side, and I will never participate in this matter, only at your disposal." Seeing that she picked up the silver grate, still stunned, he held her hand holding the silver grate, "After working for many days, there is no time to appreciate the spring, and in the blink of an eye, the spring will be twilight, I just take advantage of you and go to the countryside to scatter, what is it?" ”

Where to go to enjoy the spring, but I don't know what he is, she had to shake her head helplessly, pull out her hand to grate his hair, tie up his hair, wrap it in a crow-blue veil, and buckle the daily sword at the leather belt around her waist.

Everything was ready, and the two of them were in the same car, and they went to the yamen together to find the deputy lieutenant Su assigned by Erlang. Deputy Lieutenant Su and the ten personal soldiers were already waiting in the guard's office, and when they saw Du Ruhui coming with her from a distance, they all got up and greeted her, and sang neatly in their mouths: "Mr. Du, Gu Niangzi." ”

Du Ruhui hurriedly returned the salute, but before he saw him, Deputy Lieutenant Su was only wearing a plain cloth regular uniform, not only him, but also the ten personal soldiers. It stands to reason that Deputy Lieutenant Su is the benevolent lieutenant under the ninth grade, and since he is doing the tolerance, he should be wearing a light cyan uniform. Counting Ah Liu and Mu Qing standing beside him, these people in front of him seemed to be ordinary merchants.

Deputy Lieutenant Su has been in the army for a long time, and he is not used to wearing regular clothes, and when he saw Du Ruhui looking at him with a smile, he raised his arms with a smile, "Yesterday, I got the words sent by Gu Niangzi, and I didn't show my military posture, so that we and others were all ......dressed up as businessmen."

"That's right, hard work." Mu Qing saluted everyone apologetically, then turned to Du Ruhui and said with a slight smile: "I was afraid to bluff those Tian Shelang, so I asked all the soldiers to fade their armor." First, the people in the countryside and villages are cowardly, and they are inevitably afraid when they see the soldiers, and they are unwilling to take the work. Second, even if they are not afraid of the generals and should be inherited, you know that people's hearts and tongues are the most difficult to return, and if they are shouted out in the future, they will know that the Tang State is full of soldiers, and it is not easy to clean up. Therefore, after thinking about it, he simply pretended to be a merchant and traded with each other, which was the most refreshing. ”

Du Ruyan nodded silently, and sighed in her heart that she was really careful and cautious, and it was unknown if she crossed the men over time, but it was a pity that women were not allowed to be stronger than the court in the world.
