Chapter Eighty-Nine

"Where am I going to hide anything from you? www.biquge.info"Tang Xu was very moved, and felt sorry for Xiao Cui, and was entangled in whether to tell Xiao Cui the truth.

"Do you really identify with me? Won't regret it? I don't even have the money to buy you jewelry. Tang Xu's nose was sour. But Xiao Cui cried before him.

"What's wrong with you? Don't cry, I was wrong. Tang Xu hurriedly wiped her tears.

What do you mean by that? Don't you want to marry me? Xiaocui couldn't stop her tears, Tang Xu was so distressed that she kept admitting her mistake and saying that she didn't mean that.

"I only love you alone, and I never wanted to leave you, but I can't even buy you decent jewelry right now. I really don't know how I became an official. Tang Xu laughed at himself.

"When did I get your money? Don't I know that all your money has been given to others? I love you honestly, I am not uncommon for those who have been officials for a few years and have made a lot of money, I am afraid that I will not be able to sleep peacefully at night. Xiao Cui pouted and twitched. Tang Xu was happy to hear it, but he was still bitter in his heart, he remembered the secret account that Zhou An gave him, anyway, it was all greedy money, is it okay to take some away?

"You must not use any crooked brains, besides, our life is much better than that of the poor. If you do something corrupt for me, I'll die. Xiao Cui was about to go on, but Tang Xu was so frightened that he covered her mouth.

"Dead or alive, I don't allow you to say that. I listen to you, and I've been honest all my life. Tang Xu swore to Xiao Cui, and said a lot of coaxing words, so Xiao Cui broke into tears and laughed and didn't care about him.

Although Tang Xu didn't ask, Xiao Cui's actions also made him break the knot, and the two happily ate and went to the courtyard to admire the moon with great interest, and went back to the house to sleep after the third watch. It's just that Tang Xu didn't sleep very well this night, and in the middle of the night he heard something outside, so he got up lightly and went to the window to look, but he didn't find anything. Probably too tired, Tang Xu thought when he returned to bed.

Tang Xu woke up early the next morning, or he didn't sleep much all night, but seeing that Xiaocui's mother and daughter, Bao'er and Bai Lun were all in Zhang Luo's wedding and New Year's Day, he cheered up and worked with everyone.

Tang Xu originally wanted to hold a wedding with Xiaocui in a beautiful way, but the current situation is not easy, Tang Xu wants to go back to the Tang Mansion to see if there are any valuable things to use, at least buy a few better jewelry and clothes for Xiaocui. After making up his mind, Tang Xu informed Xiaocui and the others and went home. But Tang Xu rummaged at home for a long time and didn't find anything valuable, and the ones that were too large were not easy to carry. When he was worried, he heard someone knocking on the courtyard door, Tang Xu went to open the door and saw that it was Zhou An, but Zhou An was not alone on this trip, and there were three carriages parked behind him. Tang Xu muttered in his heart, does the emperor want to let himself enter the palace?

"The slave maid has seen Imperial Doctor Tang." Zhou An gave Tang Xu a deep salute. Tang Xu returned the salute and asked Zhou An to sit in the house.

"Why did Father-in-law Zhou come?" Tang Xu asked.

"The Chinese New Year's Eve banquet in the palace invited the courtiers, and the emperor missed the face of the Tang imperial doctor for a long time, and specially ordered the slaves to come and deliver the decree." Zhou An replied.

"Wechen obeys." Tang Xu respectfully returned the salute, but his heart was a little sullen, he really wanted to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at Xiaocui's house on Chinese New Year's Eve, but the emperor ordered not to be disrespected.

"The emperor said that the Tang Imperial Doctor has always been thrifty, and there are many places that need to be used when the New Year is approaching, so let the slaves and maids send money, food, cloth and silk to the Tang Imperial Doctor." Zhou An said that he took Tang Xu to pick it up, it turned out that the carriage was full of things that the emperor had given Tang Xu, jewelry, money, rice grain, cloth and silk were carried down one after another, and a few sips of tea were piled up on a hill.

"The emperor's love is really deserved." Tang Xu was happy to see it, he was finally rich, but he felt that he was very useless when he saw money.

"What did Imperial Doctor Tang say, the emperor said that Imperial Doctor Tang worked very hard for the queen's conditioning and the Imperial Medical Pavilion, even if he was rewarded more, he could afford it." Zhou An laughed with him. Tang Xu was about to make tea for Zhou An, but Zhou An stopped him.

"Why should the Tang Imperial Doctor be so bitter about himself, although it is said that it is a personal family matter, but the chief of the Imperial Doctor's Pavilion and the courtier of the current emperor's courtier, there is not even a slave at home, and everything needs to be done by himself, which makes the emperor's face dull." Zhou An's words were not ridicule, they were indeed the truth.

"Father-in-law Zhou is right, it's the lower officials who don't think it through." Tang Xu originally just agreed casually, but he didn't expect Zhou An to hear three high-fives, and immediately a few maids and servants came in.

"Grandpa Zhou, what are you doing here?" But Tang Xu probably guessed it.

"This is the maid and slave selected by the emperor and the queen for the Tang Imperial Doctor, and the food and clothing are also taken by the palace, so there is no need for the Tang Imperial Doctor to worry about it." Zhou An asked the maid to salute Tang Xu.

"The minister bows and thanks the emperor Longen." Tang Xu knelt down and bowed on the surface, but his heart was miserable. In the past, there was only one person, no matter where he went or what he did, as long as he locked the courtyard door, everything would be fine, but now there are so many more people, nominally serving himself, but in fact it is a big burden.

These six people can't let them sleep in the yard, Tang Xu said that there are a few empty rooms in the east that can be used for daily living, so those people went to sprinkle and clean up first after getting Zhou An's permission.

Zhou An stayed at Tang Xu's house for a while and then went back to the palace to resume his life, and before leaving, he also told Tang Xu not to miss the time of the banquet, Tang Xu naturally nodded and said yes. When Zhou An left, Tang Xu didn't want to stay at home anymore, so he wanted to go to Bai Lun with a few important things on his body.

"Where is the master going, but do you need a small follower?" Tang Xu walked towards the gate of the courtyard, and a man who looked clever trotted to meet Tang Xu.

"I'll go out for a walk, you don't have to follow." Tang Xu is depressed, and now he has to make up a reason to even go out, hey. The little guy promised to open the courtyard door for Tang Xu, and saw that Tang Xu walked out for more than ten steps and didn't give any more instructions before closing it again.

Tang Xu can't walk at ease now, he was worried about being followed by people with bad intentions, and now he has to guard against being followed by his own servants. When Tang Xu took the path and turned left and right, it was easy to arrive at Xiaocui's house, and when he saw Xiaocui and Bai Lun, he told them everything that had just happened.

"It's a tricky matter." Bai Lun said.

"Yes, even if you don't send me to monitor me, if you see something unusual, you will probably report it back to the emperor or Zhou An." Tang Xu was a little worried, but now he couldn't think of a solution for the time being, so he could only act cautiously and wait for the changes.
