After noon, the emperor departed after feasting all the scholars and invited ministers. After escorting Luan back to the palace, Liu Yu's whole person was also relaxed, the day's errand was successfully completed, and what the rest of the people in Ci'en Temple did had nothing to do with him, and Yang Lie had full authority to take care of it.

Liu Yu had a feast in Ci'en Temple, the light taste was very suitable for him, he didn't see Xu Xuanzhu when he got home, and Xu Xuanzhu came out of the back hall after a while, and Sui Yu came out with her, it turned out that Xu Xuanzhu asked Sui Yu to teach her to be a female celebrity. Since the two got married, Xu Xuanzhu suddenly seemed to have no support, and always wanted to find something to do.

"General Liu has returned, and the slave family will leave." Sui Yu saw that Liu Yuren became very unnatural and said goodbye to leave.

Liu Yu said: "Miss Sui doesn't stay for a meal?" ”

Xu Xuanzhu glanced at Liu Yu, as if he was complaining that he was not speaking well, it was still early to eat a bowl of rice just after lunchtime, and the guests seemed to be rushing away. Xu Xuanzhu sent Sui Yu out first, and when he came back, he took out an invitation and said: "Husband, you are really, the sister of the Sui family takes care of the concubine like that, and the husband should also think about it." This is the invitation to the banquet of the four princesses today, and we are specially invited to go with our husband and wife. ”

Hearing that it was Su Bi's treat, Liu Yu felt a headache, a stuffy gourd and a strong woman, the combination of this family is strange enough. Su Bi gave people a strong sense of oppression, and it might be better if Xu Xuanzhu was present.

"Madame, are you going too?"

"Hmm." Xu Xuanzhu nodded, "The fourth princess has been invited many times, and if you don't appreciate your face, you can't say it." ”

Originally, it was always inappropriate for a woman to attend a public banquet, but Xu Xuanzhu had a special status, and he was a member of the court, and the military generals of Wenchen also had to give her thin noodles.

Xu Xuanzhu wanted to go, but Liu Yu couldn't be disappointed, and agreed to go to the banquet with her.

"Our courtyard has been uninhabited for a long time, I'm afraid it's also cobwebs, it's rare to have time today, so it's better to hire a few workers to clean it up and decorate it."

Liu Yu also wanted to find something for Xu Xuanzhu to do when he mentioned the other courtyard, so as not to make her panic at home.

"That's fine." Xu Xuanzhu smiled, and suddenly pointed to the study, "Before I passed, there was still a guest at home, and it was better for my husband to entertain him in person." ”

Liu Yuxin said that this person has such a big face, and he actually openly entered the house, could it be that Qu Ning came to him for a theory? When I walked to the door of the study, I realized that it was not Qu Ning, but Su Yan, who was sitting listlessly at the desk, raising his eyelids, and immediately drooping down, sleepy and sleepy.

Liu Yu deliberately cleared his throat when he entered the door, thinking that Su Yan would be refreshed when he heard the sound, but he didn't expect to just look up at Liu Yu, continue to lower his head, and whisper: "Master, are you here?" ”

Vaguely, Liu Yu saw Su Yan, who was sluggish after being beaten by the group.

"This bear-like, someone bullying you?"

Su Yan said unhappily: "I am now the prince, and when he sees me, he takes a detour, who still bullies me?" ”

"Is that a gambling money gamble lost?"

"When the people in the gambling house see me, it's like they see a ghost, who bets with me?"

Liu Yuxin said that Su Yan is a phobia of high society, and he has just entered the elite class, but in fact, his psychology is still stuck in the mentality of ordinary people, no one is waiting to see the elites, and the common people feel that they dare not get close to him, and they have no sense of dependence on both sides.

Su Yan said: "Master, in the past few days, there has been a great drought in the court, and my father seems to be sending us to other places to collect grain for disaster relief, can't you go with me?" ”

Liu Yue had heard Han Sheng talk about this earlier, and estimated that the emperor was about to make an order.

"You're worried about this?" Liu Yu asked.

"Master, you also know that I have never done anything alone, I will do whatever you say I will do, and I will come back with a king in a daze. If I really want to go alone this time, I'm afraid that I will mess things up and make people laugh. ”

Liu Yuxin said that Su Yan not only has a phobia of high society, but also a phobia of a confused future. The whole person is not confident because of the huge sense of presence that came suddenly.

"I should be able to go with you this time, even if I really can't, I'll take care of you and find someone you can trust to accompany you."

Liu Yu said so, but if he really wanted to find someone trustworthy, he really couldn't imagine that Sui Yi and Li Mi were busy with business, and only Hu Xuan could be useful, and Hu Xuan had no experience. Speaking of which, Liu Yu didn't see Hu Xuan for some days, and Sui Yi originally wanted Hu Xuan to go to Jingzhao Mansion on an errand, but the matter was stopped by Hu Xuan's father.

"Next time, don't run alone, the whole person is not energetic. What about Xiaoyu, why didn't she come with you? ”

When it came to Xiaoyu, Su Yan's face finally had some light, and he said: "Xiaoyu is busy at home, and he has been helping me clean up these days, but he is diligent." Master, can I marry Xiaoyu? ”

Liu Yu didn't expect Su Yan to get serious, and asked, "Do you have a ...... with her?" That one? ”

"I don't want to hurt Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu is good, I want to ...... Marry her into the door, be my princess, and we will live together. ”

Liu Yu showed a somewhat relieved smile on his face, it was rare that Su Yan also understood the responsibilities of men and learned to be conscientious and responsible, which was his first step from stubbornness to maturity. With a family, there will be concern in the heart, and you will work hard for it.

"If you want to marry the princess, you have to ask the emperor for instructions, I don't understand those etiquette aspects, and the Ministry of Etiquette should give you some attention then." Liu Yu smiled, "Let's go, don't stay here, go to the other courtyard with the teacher to have a look, and scatter your mind." ”

…………

Liu Yu's family came out and went to the south of the city, this time there was one more accompanying guest Su Yan, and the wind blew in the general's mansion before leaving the palace, and Su Yan's face was finally not so sad.

When they arrived at the courtyard, Liu Yu and Su Yan climbed to the four-story building without windows and looked at the scenery below.

The workers were not invited, and the people in charge of cleaning became a group of guards led by Lu Chuer and Cai Yingnu, and the free labor was not in vain. As for the furniture, there is no furniture store to buy it these days, so the carpenter from the carpentry shop must be invited to measure and order it on the spot. Xu Xuanzhu didn't understand these things, and Liu Yu had no experience, so he had to move Sui Yu again, Sui Yu was responsive, put down the work in his hand and came over with the guards who went to ask for it, and discussed the size of the furniture and bargaining with the shopkeeper of the wood shop with Xu Xuanzhu.

It's just that Liu Yu doesn't know if Xu Xuanzhu will consider the issue of "big bed" mentioned last time.

Lu Chuer led a group of guards to weed in the garden, and the Han sisters enjoyed the play on the side, taking a look at where the swings were suitable for placement. There are a lot of trees in the yard, but there are not many suitable for swinging, which also gives the two little girls a headache.

Liu Yu looked at it for a while, turned his head, and found that Su Yan was looking at the courtyard of the house next door, condescendingly seeing it clearly.

"Don't look at indecent things, don't stare at other people's yards." Liu Yu reminded.

Su Yan pointed below and said, "Master, what are they doing?" ”

Liu Yu also looked under the window with interest, and saw that in the courtyard next door, a group of people who seemed to be housekeepers waved a few sticks, and then entered the house, and a group of plainly dressed girls walked out of the house, squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands as if they were being punished, and a person who seemed to be a shopkeeper was whipping a rattan one by one. The girl's resistance was not serious, and she was used to corporal punishment.

"It may be that they are learning to sing, the men are martial artists, and the women are punished if they don't practice well."

Because he was far away and couldn't hear the sound of talking, Liu Yu only judged by his feelings.

Originally, Liu Yu didn't pay too much attention, after all, this is Jinchangfang in the south of the city, and the surrounding fish and dragons are mixed, and it is not unusual to have an opera troupe practicing drama. After looking at it for a while, I found some things, those girls and the family had rotated in and out several times, and a silent pantomime made Liu Yue more and more unable to see the way.

After a while, through the archway in the distance, some young men and women, dressed in sloppy and ragged clothes, as if they had been trafficked by human traffickers, did not come out again after entering the house.

Liu Yu didn't want to interfere in other people's private affairs, but at this time, Sui Yu and Xu Xuanzhu accompanied the carpenter upstairs to measure, and Liu Yu deliberately let Xu Xuanzhu and Sui Yu look at the following scene. Sui Yu said: "It may be that some people who sell servants buy some young boys and girls from poor families who have no food and clothing to train and sell them to big families in the city. ”

Liu Yu sighed and said: "It turns out that he is really a human trafficker, and it seems that this matter needs to be taken care of." ”

Sui Yu said: "General Liu is still Mo Li's good, if the poor family really has no way to live, they will not sell their children and daughters, even if this matter is taken care of today, they still have no way to live when they leave here." It's better to go with the flow, and you can also find a way to live in the future. ”

Liu Yue understands that social welfare is equivalent to nothing in these days, and although human traffickers are not legal, society has also acquiesced in their existence. In ancient times, when there was a drought this year and water conservancy was underdeveloped, the lives of poor families were completely resigned to fate, and they could not survive, so they could only sell themselves into slavery.

Liu Yu didn't say anything more, but Su Yan on the side looked very emotional, and said, "Master, I used to think that I was miserable, but compared to them, I at least have something to eat." ”

Su Yan is also a political participant now, will he understand some truths if he doesn't go to his own body, Liu Yu's preaching might as well let him go to the society to experience it himself. Su Yan has been in Chang'an City for five years, and he has suffered a lot, and he has long seen the warmth and coldness of people.

Liu Yu wanted to stop the matter, but he saw that many big men with knives suddenly entered the courtyard, and when they rushed into the courtyard, they were slashed, and many boys and girls fell in pools of blood.

"Something's wrong." Liu Yu understood that things were not so simple, just like a murder that happened for no reason in the Temple of Mercy and Grace, and a killing actually happened under Liu Yu's nose.
