Chapter 83: Divide the Ranks

After returning from the Wu family, Ke Xiyuan dispelled the idea of going to the street to have a look, and went straight back to Yunyin Temple.

It didn't take long for Zhou Chenyu to rush back.

"What's wrong? Traveling with the Imperial Forest Army today, could it be that you have encountered some trouble? As soon as Zhou Chenyu came in, he asked anxiously, just afraid that Ke Xiyuan would suffer any grievances.

"Today, the second lady handed me a message, saying that there was a guest from Kang Guogong's mansion, she suspected that it was from Beijing, and Kang Guogong allocated a courtyard to him alone." , Ke Xiyuan did not hesitate, and directly said the news he had just gotten.

Zhou Chenyu's face changed a few times, and a smile appeared on his lips, "Tomorrow, we will visit Kang Guogong." My illness should be cured. ”

Ke Xiyuan's eyes lit up, "Is it proper?" If we go, will we startle the snake? ”

"Tomorrow there will be a decree, and we will have a will that remains. Today, they have to pack up and move to the Kangguo Mansion tomorrow. Zhou Chenyu's eyes lit up, and he added, "Are you afraid?" ”

It's going to go deep into the tiger's den! Ke Xiyuan's eyes blinked, "The concubine is very afraid, the second master must protect the concubine well!" ”

"Yuanyuan, I promise, we will return to the capital in April." , Zhou Chenyu did not panic at all, it can be seen that everything is under control.

Ke Xiyuan was inexplicably at ease, thinking about the Li Wu family she saw today, and she only felt that this trip must be very interesting.

Early the next morning, Ke Xiyuan packed up and said goodbye to Wukong.

"This time I have been bothering the master for many days, and there is Master Lao!" , Ke Xiyuan folded her hands and took the small note in Qiqiao's hand and handed it to Wukong. "Here are a few vegetarian recipes I wrote myself, all of which should express my gratitude to the master these days!"

"Amitabha! The poor monk didn't say much! Wukong took the note. There was a gleam in his eyes.

"The rest of the French style is bothered by the master. I'll ask the girls to send the copied scriptures regularly! Ke Xiyuan lived for a while, and was a little reluctant to be here. When I went to the Kangguo Mansion, I was going to cheer up the spirit of the twelve.

"The donor is sincere, and his wish will come true!" , Wukong recited the Buddha again. Only then did he take his disciples into the Guanyin Hall and start to fight Jiao again.

Ke Xiyuan got into the carriage and looked at the Imperial Forest Army following behind. asked Zhou Chenyu on the side, "The group of ...... in the back"

"Return to Beijing today!" , Zhou Chenyu blinked, "Are you afraid?" ”

"The second master is not afraid. Concubines are not afraid! ”。 Ke Xiyuan smiled back and leaned her head on Zhou Chenyu, "Then how can the old fox rest assured that we will go over?" ”

"That's his conceit. We were in Yunyin Temple, and he couldn't see or touch it. It was under his nose that he felt reassured. Zhou Chenyu played with a strand of Ke Xiyuan's hair, and his face was peaceful.

"The concubine body will definitely not make Kang Guogong lonely. Second master rest assured! Ke Xiyuan raised a smile. I already knew what to do. On the contrary, just as Mrs. has been slapped in the face by her several times, this time she will go and divide again.

Zhou Chenyu smiled dumbly, looking at Ke Xiyuan's confident face, and the place in his heart was full. Such a woman can indeed stand side by side with her.

When he arrived at the Kangguo Mansion, Zhou Chenyu helped Ke Xiyuan to get off the carriage, and then saw the Tang Gonggong beside Emperor Longqing.

How did this decree come so punctually? Ke Xiyuan smiled secretly, and knelt down with Zhou Chenyu, without looking at Li Yulin, the prince of Kang Guo, who was kneeling on the side. However, she keenly felt a burning gaze behind her, which made her extremely uncomfortable.

The holy decree is very lengthy, but in a word, it is a sentence, asking Zhou Chenyu to thoroughly investigate the cause of the collapse of the embankment, and assist Cao Mingyuan, the governor of the Huai River, and Liu Yuan, the prefect of the Huai River, to build the embankment.

In this way, Emperor Longqing gave Zhou Chenyu an upright reason to survey the river embankment, and also put Zhou Chenyu in a position of public criticism. From this moment on, they have to be even more cautious, and by the way, they have to protect the prince in secret.

Zhou Chenyu accepted the order, and Gonggong Tang said to Li Yulin with a smile, "Gonggong Kang, the Holy One remembers you very much. The last time you wrote to your family, you said that your legs and feet hurt, and the Holy Lord asked the servant to bring you medicine and wine. ”

Li Yulin's face showed a look of sincere fear, and he immediately knelt down towards the north, and arched his hand, "How can the old minister He De be honored by the saint!" I only hope that my emperor is healthy and long-lived! ”

Gonggong Tang immediately helped Li Yulin up, "The saint said that Kang Guogong is his maternal uncle, so he should care more." This time, I also brought greetings to my wife and the second lady", after Tang Gonggong finished speaking, he glanced at Li Lu's who was standing not far away, and the meaning was self-evident.

Li Yulin looked at Li Lushi and didn't react at all, he only felt a sullen breath in his chest, and his voice was heavy, "Don't you want to thank the Holy Grace?" ”

Li Lushi just glanced at Li Yulin indifferently, and walked over to take the imperial gift from Gonggong Tang, "Thank you for the concubine!" The concubine body must recite more Heart Sutras for the saint every day, and bless me with good wind and rain in Yongchang. ”

"Madame's heart, our family will definitely pass it on to the saint! Our family has to rush back to restore our lives, so let's go! After speaking, Gonggong Tang glanced at Zhou Chenyu and his wife, and said again, "Mrs. Zhongxinbo in Jingzhong asked our family to bring some daily necessities, and the county lord might as well let someone collect them." ”

"There is Lao Gonggong, this journey has been hard!" , Ke Xiyuan glanced at Jiuhui, and Jiuhui followed Gonggong Tang.

Li Yulin looked at Zhou Chenyu with a proud face, "This embankment has collapsed, and I can't sleep for several nights." Now fortunately, the virtuous nephew is here, and I have thanked the virtuous nephew for the people of Huaihe! The virtuous nephew is young, and he really has the style of a father. ”

Zhou Chenyu clenched his fists, "Don't dare to praise the grandfather of the country!" The younger generation is just doing their best, lest they insult the emperor's grace! ”

Li Yulin's face looked like a benevolent elder, "Haha! The virtuous nephew is really modest! I think that when the old man was an official in Beijing, he still had a good relationship with his father! Come on, don't get drunk tonight! This time, I should take the wind for you, and it is also to celebrate your initial recovery from a serious illness. ”

"Guests are as they please!" After Zhou Chenyu finished speaking, he followed Li Yulin in. Immediately afterwards, the other men of the Li family also walked in.

As soon as they left, Ke Xiyuan felt that uncomfortable gaze disappear.

Li Lushi looked at Ke Xiyuan, his lips moved, and he didn't speak after all. Li Shuling, who was still on the side, said with a smile, "The yard has been cleaned up, in the north and south of the mansion, I personally led people to clean it up, and the county lord must like it." ”

Ke Xiyuan glanced at the missing figure like Mrs. among the female dependents, and hooked her lips, "Thank you, Second Miss!" ”

Li Shuling smiled and naturally hugged Ke Xiyuan's arm, "Mother, let's go over with the county lord!" The county lord just came out of the temple, as if he didn't get into the fireworks, let's have a good day today, okay? ”

Li Lu's gaze flicked back and forth on Ke Xiyuan's face, and nodded, "That's very good!" (To be continued......)
