Military Department.

Ru Yu sat behind the bookcase, looking at the scattered troop transfer list in front of him, thinking of his generous statement two hours ago, thinking of his high spirits in the face of his subordinates, and thinking of the pride of seeing his subordinates go to various departments in tandem, feeling that everything was like a world away, and the chair under his seat soon did not belong to him. Now that he has been removed from the post of secretary of the military department, although the holy decree has not yet been issued, it is only a matter of time or time. If the advice he initiated was adopted, it would be fine, but it was resolved by the imperial grandson in a few words, and what he didn't expect was that the imperial grandson was very decisive in removing his position, perhaps because the imperial grandson had always been lenient and made him have the illusion that he would not treat himself well.

Thinking of this, Ru Yu smiled bitterly, "Alas", no matter how cowardly and incompetent the prince is, he is also a prince, and now that the emperor is old, he can decide your life and death. Of course, if the old emperor dealt with this matter, he would probably have been wiped out by now. He was young and ambitious, and everyone in the world thought that he was the reincarnation of Nanyue God, and the emperor was also very kind to himself, but it was a pity that he had a bad thought, and he hated the prince, maybe his career would come to an end.

Just when Ru Yu had mixed feelings and mixed feelings, a voice came from outside the door: "Under the holy decree, Ru Yu, the secretary of the military department, and Qi Tai, the left attendant of the military department, received the order." ”

Ru Yu hurriedly went out, knelt down with Qi Tai and others to accept the order, and sure enough, he was removed from the post of secretary of the military department, and Qi Tai, the left attendant of the military department, took over as the secretary of the military department. In addition, he was ordered to think about it behind closed doors for a month, and he was not allowed to go out if he had nothing to do.

After thanking him, Ru Yu handed over the official business to Qi Tai, and then left in a hurry under the complicated eyes of his subordinates.

The military department was withdrawn, and the officials of the military department were personally panicked, and they did their best to the instructions of the new Shangshu, lest they be targeted by the new Shangshu, and Qi Tai was very capable and had the ability to never forget, and the names, numbers, and money and food of the frontier soldiers were all treasured, so Qi Tai's performance was very smooth, and it had little impact on the war in northern Xinjiang.

Although the turmoil passed, the aftermath lasted for a long time, and although Zhu Yunwen did not pursue the matter on the surface, the officials who were in the limelight in this incident were gradually demoted, or sent to the border, or demoted, or executed for embezzlement.

Ru Yu and his wife Gu's childhood sweetheart, when Ru Chang entered the Guozijian, the two got married, and the couple had a deep love for many years, and the husband sang with the wife. The Gu family has three sons and two daughters, and each child is carefully inquired about and strictly disciplined. That afternoon, when the Gu family was physically punishing the naughty youngest son Ru Yong, Ziyun, the personal maid, ran in and said in a low voice: "Madam, the master has returned home." ”

Gu Shi was a little surprised, he has been busy with military affairs recently, and his husband is often busy until late at night before coming home, why is it so early today? She keenly felt that something was abnormal, but she remained silent, and said, "Ziyun, you go to the kitchen to have a look, add two of the old man's favorite dishes, the old man has been busy with military affairs recently, and he needs to nourish his body." ”

"Yes, ma'am." Ziyun said yes and ran to the kitchen.

Ru Yu walked to the front of the hall, but found that the Gu family was already waiting in front: "Welcome the master back to the house." Ru Yu hurriedly helped Gu up and said with a forced smile: "Madam, how do you perform this great gift today?" ”

Gu Shi helped Ru Yu, Lianbu moved lightly, and said with a gentle smile: "The concubine hasn't practiced calligraphy for a long time, and the lord is idle today, can you give me some guidance on the concubine." ”

"Hehe," hearing this, Ru Yu couldn't help laughing, her own lady, piano, chess, poetry and painting are good, only calligraphy is slightly worse than herself, so the two often compete in calligraphy after marriage, although she has repeatedly lost, but she is not tired of it, and she has to lose once or twice once or twice, which is also some boudoir fun.

When the two came to the study, Gu grabbed the table, raised his eyebrows and smiled at Ru Chang: "I want to write first!" Ru Yu smiled, made a gesture of "please", and said, "Okay, Madame, please first, and my husband will study ink for you." ”

Gu Shi brushed the hair in front of his forehead, settled his mind, leaned forward slightly, hung his elbows and concentrated, and wrote a poem like flowing water, and sweat beads oozed slightly from the tip of his nose and forehead after putting down the pen. Gu Shi gasped slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Liangyu, how is it?" ”

Gu wrote the famous female lyricist Li Qingzhao in the Song Dynasty "Summer Quatrain": life should be a masterpiece, and death should be a ghost. So far, I think of Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong. After Ru Yu saw it, she clapped her hands and praised: "Madame's calligraphy has grown again, although she is a woman, she is arrogant and does not reduce her eyebrows, her gesture is like a dragon, and her strength penetrates the back of the paper. ”

"Husband is modest," Gu pointed to the brush and said with a smile: "Come, see how about today's victory or defeat?" ”

Ru Yu picked up the brush, but he didn't put down the pen for a long time, and Gu didn't urge, just stared at him. Ru Yu remembered today's changes in the court, but her heart to serve the country was degraded, and she couldn't help but be sad and angry, and wrote straight: A court plays nine heavens, and the sunset degrades Chaozhou Road eight thousand. If you want to eliminate the evils for Shengming, you are willing to decay and cherish the last years! Writing this, Ru Yu roared, put down the brush, gathered the poems, and threw them far away.

took another piece of paper, Ru Yu calmed down, let out a long roar, and wrote a wild grass, which was Qinglian Jushi's "Difficult to Walk": the golden bottle of sake is ten thousand, and the jade plate is shy and ten thousand dollars. I couldn't eat when I stopped throwing my cup, and I was at a loss when I drew my sword and looked around. If you want to cross the Yellow River and ice congestion river, you will climb the snow-filled mountains of Taihang. Idle fishing on the blue river, suddenly take a boat to dream of the sun. It's hard to walk! It's hard to walk! Many divergent roads, where are you now? There will be times when the wind and waves will be long, and the clouds will sail into the sea. When the last word was written, Ru Yu threw the pen far away, and then sat down in his chair, panting heavily.

Gu Shi walked over slowly, held Ru Chang's head in his arms, and said softly: "Liangyu, the concubine doesn't ask you to be a high-ranking official, I just ask you not to change your original intention, this time it is Ru Liangyu in my heart, and it is my favorite husband." ”

Ru Chang hugged Gu's waist, as if he wanted to save the warmth of this moment forever. After a while, Ru Chang said in a low voice: "Madam, you know everything?" ”

Gu shook his head and said, "The concubine doesn't know, but I just feel that my husband is a little decadent, not as high-spirited as before." ”

Only then did Ru Chang understand Madame's intentions, stood up and hugged Gu in his arms, and said in a low voice, "Madam, I'm offended." As he spoke, he hugged Gu and walked to the quiet room behind, although Gu was cold and self-controlled, he did not resist at this time, but hugged Ru Chang's neck tightly.

Ru Chang was sad and angry in his heart, and he only cared about his own pleasure, but Gu was tactful and extremely gentle......

The clouds and rain fell, Gu snuggled in Ru Chang's arms, listening to Ru Chang slowly tell today's events, Gu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, his husband is cautious, humble and tolerant, but this is all for others to see, he is extremely arrogant in his bones, he claims to be the reincarnation of Nanyue God, there are few colleagues who can see it, and he also has a lot of complaints about the emperor's grandson, thinking that he is not like a human king. It's just that it's too Meng Lang today, and it's not too much to incite hundreds of officials to rush into Zhan Shifu, and it is not too much to raid the house and destroy the door, and it is not bad to have such a result.

But Gu didn't dare to say it, he was silent for a long time, and said: "Liangyu, don't think so much, the emperor's grandson is kind-hearted, since he didn't punish you at that time, he won't turn over old accounts in the future." This month should be a rest, and when you get to your new job, you can do solid work. With your ability, sooner or later you will return to Jingshi. ”

Ru Chang hugged Gu's family, sighed, and said: "How easy is this, His Royal Highness is now the prince, and there are many subordinate officials around him, and he will succeed to the throne of the Son of Heaven in the future, and the good position will inevitably be picked up by them, and there are not many seats left, how can it be my turn to be the one who has hated the new monarch." ”

"That," Gu Shi was silent for a while, and said, "Or, you go to His Highness to ask for guilt, saying that he is just confused for a while, maybe he will forgive you for being reckless?" ”

"Reckless? How reckless am I? Ru Chang was a little angry, but he looked at Gu Shi for a while, and said dejectedly: "I am indeed reckless, but it is irreparable, and if I am softer now, it will only make people look down on me more." ”

"......" Gu couldn't think of any good way, and after a while, he said: "Liangyu, this is the time to test your heart the most, don't give up on yourself, take 10,000 steps back, even if you return to the countryside, you can be with your husband, and the concubine will feel happy." ”

"Madam,......" Ru Chang hugged his wife who had been in love for 20 years in his arms, tears flowed down, he really regretted it......
