When Yu Shu first took in Abe Aoi, he learned from her that he had something extraordinary, and imagined that there might be someone in this world who was like her, from 500 years later.

This kind of assumption makes her feel both excited and worried, excited that as a "stranger", it is really indescribable excitement to meet a "fellow countryman"; The worry is that if the other party is not the same person as her, then it is very likely to become a potential threat to her in this world.

She had secretly struggled with this, and until now, she was relieved that she had confirmed the existence of such a person through Abe Aoi's special skills.

There is no other reason, because this "fellow" is a slave she bought back from the Confessional Hospital.

With such an identity, it is impossible for him to make waves under her hands no matter what, which dispelles her senseless worries. The rest is pure excitement about finding a fellow countryman.

Abe Aoi secretly looked at the surprised and happy expression on Yu Shu's face, very worried, and reluctantly called "master".

"Huh?" Yu Shu came back to his senses, only to realize that he had been holding the child and didn't let go, so he hurriedly let go of his hand, gently rubbed it on her shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Kwai Zi is well done, you should be rewarded, what do you want, just say."

Abe Aoi relaxed his spirits at this time, heard Yu Shu's praise, smiled shyly, knelt at Yu Shu's feet, shook his head, and said sincerely: "The slave doesn't want anything, as long as you are happy." ”

It's hypocritical for others to say this, but Yu Shu knows it. It is difficult for Abe Aoi to keep a pure heart, she said that she didn't want to be rewarded, she never thought of using this to invite credit, she just wanted to please her.

"Then how can it, I have always had clear rewards and punishments," Yu Shu patted her little brain, thought about it, she touched the lanyard around her neck, raised her hand and took it off, this is a goose carved from white crystal. Only the size of an almond. It has the effect of calming the nerves and helping her sleep, and she has been wearing it for many days.

Abe Aoi watched Yu Shu take off the personal object and put it on her neck, flattered, and hurriedly refused: "The slave doesn't dare." ”

Yu Shu didn't care about her. With a smile, he put the white crystal on her. While chanting: "You have more discerning eyes than the people in this world." He also endured the tribulations that others did not dare to imagine, and was exiled in a foreign land, in the dead of night. Alone, I'm afraid it will be sad and lonely, tossing and turning and not knowing the future, this crystal goose is raised by my own hands, I hope it can make you have a good dream, sleep well, and no longer worry about the past. ”

This is said to Abe Aoi, and it is also like her monologue.

The crystal pendant with body temperature was attached to her chest, and her heart was hot in an instant, Abe Aoi unconsciously had tears in her eyes, and the deep worries she had hidden these days were expressed by Yu Shu, and she felt endless sourness.

In an instant, she recalled many gray memories, those unrecognizable corpses, those cruel training, the days that once made her miserable, but they were gone forever.

"Master, thank you, master." She choked and crawled at Yu Shu's feet, gratitude about to overflow from her chest.

Yu Shu let her hold the corner of her clothes and wiped two handfuls of tears, rare pity, no impatience, fortunately, Abe Aoi did not indulge for too long, so he stopped crying, raised his head, and waited for her instructions.

Yu Shu coughed, pulled the corner of her clothes out of her hand, and said, "Tell me, what did Bai Ran teach you today?" ”

Abe Aoi said: "He taught me to read the "Three Character Classic", explained the meaning, learned more than a dozen new words, and said that he wanted me to copy the first few sentences ten times, memorize them, and show them to him tomorrow, and then he asked me to write silently. ”

Yu Shu nodded, since she found Bai Ran suspicious, she first had to determine whether he was from the same place as her.

"The Three Character Classic?" Yu Shu pondered for a while, and then she had an idea, she naturally would not come forward to discuss his "origin" with Bai Ran, but she could let Abe Aoi test it first.

"What did he teach you?"

"At the beginning of people, the nature is good, the sex is similar, and the habits are far away" The sentence she learned not long ago was catchy for her to memorize, and there was no stumbling at all.

Yu Shu nodded: "In this way, Kuizi, I will give you a task, from tomorrow, you go to Bai Ran to study again, pay more attention to his words and deeds, and report back to me, and besides, tomorrow you go to see him, he wants you to write your homework silently, you don't write according to what he taught you, you come here, I will write it to you again." ”

So saying, she got up and put on her shoes, and walked to the small window, where she had pens, ink, and paper in her bedroom, so that she could memorize some essays.

Yu Shu took Abe Aoi to the table and asked her to grind the ink and stretch the paper, stroke by stroke, and neatly write down the three-character scriptures she had just memorized, but what she used was the simplified Chinese characters that would be common five hundred years later.

"You copy it and write it down in the evening."

Abe Aoi didn't ask the reason, and she didn't wonder what Yu Shu wrote for what she had learned, but she copied it honestly, and Yu Shu pointed out on the side to make sure that she didn't make any mistakes.

Then Yu Shu burned the simplified Chinese characters she wrote first into ashes, opened the window to breathe, looked at Abe Aoi with an ignorant face and smiled:

"I don't need you to serve here, go down and rest."

Abe Aoi obediently retreated, Yu Shu walked around the house alone, couldn't hold back his mood, and it took a while to calm down, put on his coat, and turned around to go to the study.

She can't rest assured, she needs to burn incense and make a hexagram, and calculate the variable of Bai Ran, which is auspicious or evil for her

Liu Tan returned to the palace in the evening, and heard that Yu Shu would not leave until the afternoon, and then looked at Xia Jiangmin's good mood on his face, and felt that he was right to arrange it this way, which not only made his wife happy, but also allowed Yu Shu to stay close to Jing Wangfu.

Xia Jiangmin circled around Liu Tan like a butterfly, talking about how well the chrysanthemums in the garden bloomed, and talking about the jokes that Yu Shu told her today, and really didn't say a word about what Yu Shu told her not to mention in front of Liu Tan.

Liu Tan tasted the tea she had brewed with her own hands, as if casually asking: "Look at you and the girl in the lotus room like this, but I have never heard you say, when did you meet?" ”

Xia Jiangmin was stunned for a moment, flashed his eyes twice, pursed his lips and sat next to him and said with a smile: "I went to Beijing early to visit my fourth sister, at that time Lianfang was still a candidate, and I set up a stall on Chengnan Street to tell people hexagrams, I met her by chance, because there were no relatives and friends in the capital, so I came and went, and I became familiar with it." ”

The section where she ran away from home was deliberately concealed by the Xia Jiang family, and Liu Tan must not be allowed to know about it. Fortunately, there are only a few insiders, and Yu Shu has already helped her quietly bring a message to Jingchen, and they will not leak anything.

"I see, you have a fate."

Liu Tan didn't seem to suspect anything, and after accompanying her for a while, he went to the study in the outer courtyard to meet his guests

After Liu Tan opened the mansion, he recruited a lot of people of insight at the Shuangyang Meeting, and a considerable number of people failed to enter the office, so they became his doormen, raised in another courtyard, provided food and drink, and went to the outer courtyard every day to see him, discuss politics, and give him advice.

When Emperor Zhaoqing rewarded him, he gave him a thousand taels of gold and countless treasures, and Xue Guifei also quietly handed over to him several properties that had been operated in the capital in the past.

This is not counting the ten miles of red makeup that Xia Jiang's family brought into King Jing's Mansion.

So Liu Tan, the prince who had been cultivating abroad for many years, returned to the capital and settled down, and there was no shortage of money to spend. So raising such a large group of idlers is not effortless at all.

Today's topic talked about the topic of "what is the benefit of rejuvenating the country in Xingdao", Liu Tan's interest has always been very high, and at the end, he is still unsatisfied, so he sent away a group of doormen, and turned his head to Nan Cross Courtyard to find his most trusted staff, Helan Chou.

Liu Tan is only seventeen years old in the end, he is young, there are always some things that no one to talk to, he used to live on Longhu Mountain all the year round, few people enlightened, after returning to Beijing, even if there are several respected elders, words and deeds should be cautious, only Helan Chou, old enough, experienced ups and downs, has a lot of experience in life, the most important thing is his henchman, unsurprisingly became the object of Liu Tan's confidant.

"I have been in the mountains for ten years, what I have learned and seen, all related to the Tao, at first glance I thought it was not beneficial to the state affairs and government, but think about it, everything in this world, which kind of thing can be separated from the word 'truth', governing the country is the way, there is the way for people, often a sentence of the Tao, there is a great mystery, only the difference can be broken, for example, there is a saying in the "Zhengyi Sutra" - keep the Tao and benevolence, the whole truth is restored to Taihe, the sincerity of the Xuanyudian, the loyalty is to play the Jinke - change its meaning, in the ruler of the country, it is simply a pearl!"

Liu Tan vented, Helan Chou listened carefully from beginning to end, with hope in his eyes, thinking that such a bold and assertive young prince already had the prototype of being a Ming monarch.

After expressing it, Liu Tan finally felt happy, so he calmed down, listened to Helan Chou's few words of explanation, and finally proposed to him:

"His Royal Highness returned to Beijing, buried himself in business all day long, too diligent, but tortured the heart, it is better to make an appointment with three or five relatives and friends when you have time, go out to play and walk, if you don't want to go far, there is no shortage of good places in the capital."

When Liu Tan heard this, he was a little interested, so he asked, "Mr. said to listen to it." ”

"Yushi Lake is on the Wangge, Xisi Qiaotou is for the courtyard, and Xingyu Lane is in the Wuwu Pavilion."

Liu Tan frowned slightly and said: "I have been to the Wangwang Pavilion and the Wuwu Pavilion, isn't the Confessional Courtyard a place where the slaves are sent, what is there to go?" ”

Helan Chou just smiled, and when he saw that Liu Tan didn't think so, he didn't say in detail: "There are wonderful people hidden there." ”

Liu Tan took note of his words, and then said: "You can go to the Wuwu Pavilion to relax, I haven't met my cousin Xue Rui privately for a while, so let's look for him first." ”

Helan chou secretly said that Liu Tan still lacks tactfulness in handling things, his mind is enough, he only lacks vision and means, the eldest son of the Xue family is a cloud dragon, Liu Tan wants to take people for his own use, how can it be so easy.

So he reminded him: "It's better to invite Daozi to accompany you again, wouldn't it be beautiful to have a threesome?" ”

Liu Tan thinks about it, it's all his own people, and he can have fun playing. (To be continued......)
