At night, it rained, and the raindrops hit the lotus leaves in the pond, making a dense "popping" sound.

The night wind swept in with raindrops, hitting the carved wooden windows of the Baojin Building, and the sound was very clear.

Fu Yuchen hadn't come back yet, Xu Cancan watched the female official and the maid settle Fu Xi and Fu Quan, and took Fu Rui back to the bedroom on the third floor. She slept on the wide bed with Fu Rui in her arms, and there was even some cold on rainy nights, but fortunately, Fu Rui, who was like a small stove, brought her infinite warmth.

When it was almost time, Su Yancai took the imperial eunuch, and Shui Han escorted Emperor Qingping back to Baojin Tower with the imperial guards.

The female official on duty in Baojin Building tonight is Biyun, she took two palace maids on duty to greet her, and when she saw Emperor Qingping's pale face and tired expression, she became more and more respectful and refused to make a mistake.

Although Fu Yuchen didn't like to talk, he still asked: "What about the queen?" ”

Biyun said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the queen took the crown prince to rest on the third floor. ”

Fu Yuchen was about to go upstairs, but turned around and asked, "What about Fu Xi and Fu Quan?" ”

Biyun still replied respectfully: "The second prince and the third princess were waited by the nurse and fell asleep. ”

Fu Yuchen didn't ask any more questions, and went straight upstairs.

Biyun quietly wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, her fiancé Zhao Chuan is Shui Han's cronies, and when the two met, Zhao Chuan quietly explained to her that she must be careful in serving Emperor Qingping these days, so as not to lose her life in vain.

As soon as Xu Cancan heard the familiar sound of footsteps going upstairs from the stairs, he knew that Fu Yuchen had returned.

She got up and struggled to hold up Fu Rui, moved the little fat man Fu Rui to the bed, made room for Fu Yuchen, and then lay down next to Fu Rui and closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Fu Yuchen has been busy today, in addition to the affairs of the Yuan family, negotiations with Dongyi, and flood control of the Yellow River during the summer flood season, there is also one thing on the agenda - in order to prepare for the battle with the Liao State in advance, it is necessary to dredge the Liao River channel, which transports military rations from the south to the north.

For Fu Yuchen, dredging the Liaohe River is the top priority, today the cabinet of ten scholars came to Jin Mingyuan to discuss with him, the meeting was held until midnight, Ma Mingyu took the remaining nine scholars to rest in the Tingfeng Pavilion, ready to continue the discussion tomorrow.

No matter which dynasty it is, dredging the river is a big deal, if it is done well, it will benefit the country and the people, and if it is not done well, it will shake the country's foundation, so in the end, Fu Yuchen has a headache.

He cleaned his hands and washed, and walked to the outside of the Babu bed with heavy steps, the door of the bed was not closed, and the candles in the jade lamp on the small table at the head of the bed were still burning, which was the lamp left for him by Xu Cancan.

In the moon-white gauze tent, Xu Cancan slept soundly next to Fu Rui, and Fu Rui pouted his ass and slept like a puppy—although the wind and rain were raging outside, the bedroom was warm and fragrant.

Fu Yuchen opened the gauze tent and sat down on the edge of the bed.

The fair-skinned and warm Xu Cancan was there, this was his wife.

Fu Yuchen lowered his head to kiss Xu Cancan's lips, and as soon as he kissed him, his face was supported by Xu Cancan's soft and warm fingers.

Xu Cancan smiled and said, "Achen, you're back!" ”

Fu Yuchen was startled by her, but looked at her quietly.

Xu Cancan held Fu Yuchen's face with both hands, his clear eyes roamed over Fu Yuchen's face, and finally said: "Achen, you are so good-looking!" "But I look so tired, and I'm a little blue under my phoenix eyes.

She got up and said, "I'll give you a massage!" ”

Fu Yuchen sat obediently on the edge of the bed, and Xu Cancan knelt behind him and massaged him.

After massaging his head, Xu Cancan asked Fu Yuchen to lie on the bed and began to massage his back.

Fu Yuchen was so tired that it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.

Xu Cancan didn't care if he fell asleep, and was busy with his life seriously.

When she finished pressing, a layer of fine sweat had appeared all over her body, and then she saw Fu Yuchen sleeping so soundly, she couldn't help but feel quiet and gentle in her heart, and slowly lay on Fu Yuchen's back, leaning close to him and feeling his heartbeat.

After a while, Xu Cancan got up and went downstairs, and ordered the female official of Shangshi, Suzaku, to go to the kitchen and watch people stew a cup of pork ribs and fresh lotus root soup and send it over.

Suzaku replied "yes" and left with two little palace maids with umbrellas.

Fu Yuchen woke up again at night.

Xu Cancan was lying down with him, and when he saw Fu Yuchen waking up, he hurriedly asked, "There is pork ribs and fresh lotus root soup, do you want to drink a cup?" ”

Fu Yuchen's phoenix eyes were still misty, he blinked, and said "hmm".

Xu Cancan got out of bed and brought a cup of soup that was warm in the food box, served Fu Yuchen to eat, and waited for him to rinse his mouth and lie down.

Fu Yuchen waited for her to sleep, and then reached out to hold Xu Cancan in his arms.

Xu Cancan touched Fu Rui, who was asleep, and said in a low voice: "It's not good to snub Fu Rui like this!" ”

Fu Yuchen didn't speak, but just wrapped his slender arms and legs around Xu Cancan's body.

Xu Cancan was amused when he saw that he was competing with his son for favor again, but he supplely nested in Fu Yuchen's arms and slept - the most annoying person was Fu Yuchen when the Yuan family returned, and Fu Yuchen was so busy, Xu Cancan didn't want to worry about trivial things.

In the evening of the next day, Emperor Qingping's Luan drove back to the original palace and now the new palace.

The original hall of the Qiandi was changed to the Daqing Palace, and the apse was changed to the Zichen Palace, which were the places where the Qingping Emperor would meet; The original study courtyard was changed to the imperial study, which was the office of Emperor Qingping; The original ancestral hall was changed to the Mingtang Hall used for ancestral worship, and the original calligraphy and painting academy was changed to the Jiying Hall used for strategists; The side courtyard on the east side of the main hall was changed to Dechang Palace, which was specially used to support the emperor; The original inner courtyard was renamed Kunning Palace, and the main hall of the inner courtyard was renamed Fuyun Palace...... I will not repeat all the other additions and changes.

Xu Cancan thinks that this change is actually not bad - when the Hanyuan Garden was rebuilt into the Qing Prince's Mansion, the Emperor Taishang ordered people to build the palace according to the rules of the palace, and later made the palace and the hidden palace, which is obviously a tall and majestic palace, but the name is the inner courtyard of the east side or something, which is really a little unmatched, but now it has been changed.

Emperor Taishang took Fu Rui to study in Dechang Palace, Fu Yuchen went to the office to meet people, and Xu Cancan took Fu Xi and Fu Quan back to the Fuyun Hall of Kunning Palace.

She looked at the palace that was both familiar and somewhat unfamiliar, quite curious, and looked at the Kunning Palace inside and out, feeling that there were a lot of precious decorations, and also added a lot of beautiful palace maids and four dignified female officials, knowing that this was the handiwork of the Xuanhui Academy, but she didn't say anything, just silently thought about how to deal with it in her heart.

The first thing Xu Cancan did when he settled down was to ask Mama Dong to go to the Chengenhou Mansion to invite her mother and younger brother over.

When Mrs. Chengenhou and Chengenhou came over, Xu Cancan greeted him, welcomed Xu Wang and Xu Yichun in, and said triumphantly: "Come and see the gift I brought you!" ”

Xu Yichun saw that his sister was proud, so he deliberately stimulated her: "It's just a trip to Jinmingchi, as if you went to tour the world, and brought gifts?!" ”

Xu Cancan's reaction was to tiptoe and pound his head hard: "Reading is stupid? Sister should say thank you for the gift! Yichun is about to go back to Wanzhou to participate in the township exam, and it is very hard to study behind closed doors during this time, and it is precisely because of this that she ordered someone to ask him to come out and relax.

Xu Yichun has been used to stabbing his sister since he was a child, and he was beaten by his sister, and he was about to fight back, but he saw the female officials, grandmothers and palace maids standing in the hall all looking at him, so he had to silently withdraw his fist.

Xu Cancan said triumphantly: "Xu Yichun, this time and that time, you just accept your fate!" Ha ha! ”

Seeing that her sister was laughing wildly regardless of her image, Xu Yichun had no choice but to say: "Sister, boudoir fan, boudoir fan!" ”

Xu Cancan's smile came to an abrupt end.

The people waiting in the Fuyun Hall wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so they had to lower their heads and laugh secretly, only the female official in the clothes Hong Rui seemed to have something on her mind, and the smile on her face was a little reluctant.

Xu Wang's family saw that his daughters were all queens, and his son was still arguing with his sister, so he reached out and patted Xu Yichun's neck: "Mouthy!" "——Xu Yichun has grown a lot taller in the past two years, and Xu Wang's family can't reach him if he wants to knock on his head!

Xu Cancan couldn't help but smile when he saw his younger brother deflated, and took his mother and younger brother into the inner hall.

There was a stack of brocade boxes on the soft couch in front of the window of the inner hall, and Xu Cancan instructed the palace maids to take them one by one and open them for his mother and younger brother to see, all of which were jewelry for Xu Wang and Xu Yichun's fiancée, Miss Yuwu.

Xu Yichun was originally standing on the side with his mother to watch, but later heard that there were a few boxes for Miss Yusan, and his face turned red, and he found a reason to leave.

Xu Cancan smiled at Mimi's back as she looked at her younger brother's back and fled, turned to her mother and said, "Is the family enough recently?" "The expenses of the Chengenhou Mansion are all borne by her, Rao is so, she is still afraid that her parents will be embarrassed.

Xu Wang's nagging said: "The family has enough money, don't keep thinking about your mother's family, be careful that your son-in-law is unhappy......"

Xu Cancan said indifferently: "He doesn't care, or did he remind me!" Fu Yuchen was worried that his father-in-law's upstart family would not be able to cope with the etiquette exchanges of the Gaomen in Beijing, so he specially reminded Xu Cancan.

Xu Wang's eyes were sour when he heard this, and he looked at his daughter and explained seriously: "If your son-in-law treats you well, you have to treat him well, and husband and wife have to compare their hearts with each other, and they can't just ask and not give!" ”

Xu Cancan covered his ears and ran out quickly: "Ouch, it's verbose!" ”

Xu Wangshi watched her run out helplessly: "Alas, this girl is really ......"

After Fu Yuchen saw Ma Mingguang and Xu Yipeng, who were in charge of negotiating with Dongyi, he heard the rain come in and report that Shui Han had something to report.

Shui Han saluted and said in a deep voice: "Last night, Duchess Dingguo entered the study of Dingguo under the pretext of looking for the books you read when you were young, and was invited out after being discovered by Fu Daliang. ”

He glanced up at the expressionless Emperor Qingping, and continued to report: "At night, the personal maid of the Duchess of Dingguo, Hu Shi, sneaked into the south wall of Zhusheng Courtyard and threw a purse outside the wall, which was intercepted by the person who marked it, copied the note in the purse and threw it back again. ”

Shui Han took out a folded note and presented it to Emperor Qingping.

Fu Yuchen took a deep breath and quickly opened the note, with a line of beautiful handwriting on it - "The Liaozhou defense map has been moved to the new palace, and the concubine will try again tomorrow, looking forward to reuniting with you as soon as possible."

He returned the note to Shui Han, and a cold smile appeared on his handsome face: "Continue to follow up, don't startle the snake." For such a biological mother, he already had the consciousness of being betrayed, but he didn't expect the truth to be even dirtier.

Shui Han replied "yes" and retreated.
