Chapter 487: Court Trivia

The sky gradually warmed up, and Chang'an City returned to its former prosperity and liveliness. Although the letters of state between the Great Shun Dynasty and the Western Regions were not signed, this did not prevent Hu merchants from coming and going to Chang'an City, and the Hu merchants in Chang'an City were everywhere, making people seem to see the beginning of a prosperous dynasty.

Leap February, in the usual year also in March, but it is still a little colder than March. Liu Yu cleaned up his mood and recuperated in the palace for a few days.

There was still no news in the south, Hua Ji'an and Huo were sick for some days, and Liu Yu waited for the news very comfortably.

On the morning of the twentieth day of the second month of the leap month, Liu Yu sat at his desk in the Yingcui Palace, with a cup of hot tea in front of him, quietly looking at the book commentary. Qi'er was reading a book on the side, but for Qi'er, the book Liu Yu gave her was so profound that she had to ask Liu Yu some questions from time to time.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ To know is to know, and not to know is not to know...... What does it mean? Qi'er waited to look at Liu Yu with big eyes, and Qi'er seemed to enjoy the rhythm of interrupting Liu Yu's book review from time to time.

"To know the way is to know the way, and not to know the way is not to know the way. What a simple meaning, read it well, and then if you don't understand, just ask the doctor directly. ”

Qi'er glanced at Qu Ning, who was checking Xu Xuanzhu's body on the other side, pouted, and continued to read. On Qu Ning and Xu Xuanzhu's side, Qu Ning had already finished taking the pulse and was asking Xu Xuanzhu some questions about his daughter's family. For example, the specific time of the last time Tianhua, as well as the recent recuperation of the body, Qu Ning glanced at Liu Yu and asked Xu Xuanzhu a fairly private question, and Xu Xuanzhu didn't know how to answer when he boarded.

"I said Qu Doctor Girl, you came to take care of my wife's body, you asked the east and the west to ask the west is to reveal people's privacy?" Liu Yu said with a little dissatisfaction on his face.

"His Royal Highness is so funny. What is privacy? Husband and wife sex is normal. Is there anything wrong with asking a doctor about it? You can know the road. Sexual intercourse has a great impact on the fetus, so it is better for His Royal Highness to be careful. ”

Liu Yudeng was speechless, this Qu Ning was a bit too embarrassed to rely on her identity as a medical woman. She is a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, and she really doesn't feel blushing when she says these things, sometimes Liu Yue feels that this Qu Ning should be left behind by Liu Liniang, and Sijun's heart is so cut that her thoughts are out of balance.

But no matter how you say it, this is all a medical officer, and Liu Yu is not embarrassed by her. In case she is sick or bad, it will not be good for her to "accidentally" stagger the two medicines.

Holding up the book review, Liu Yu decided not to stay in the house, and said, "I'll go for a walk." So he took the book and went to the door. Qi'er held the book in one hand, grabbed Liu Yu's teacup in the other, and followed Liu Yu like a little fart, she also wanted to bother Liu Yu with a few more questions.

Seeing the two of them going out, Qu Ning retracted his gaze and sighed: "I don't know why my sister fell in love with him." ”

This question seems to be asking Xu Xuanzhu, the two were originally sisters in the boudoir, although their identities are different. But it doesn't hurt to say it. Xu Xuanzhu smiled faintly and said, "Maybe sister, if you have a crush in the future, you will understand my mood." ”

Qu Ning sighed again when he heard this, and the happiness on Xu Xuanzhu's face could not be disguised. In her opinion. Xu Xuanzhu, a heroine like Xu Xuanzhu, was also "damaged" by Liu Yu, and even Liu Yue rebelled, Xu Xuanzhu also helped behind his back.

In fact, Qu Ning is also not young, she is already twenty years old after this year, and she belongs to an old girl in this year. The Qu family was originally unknown in Chang'an City, and after these two dynasties, although the Qu family did not decline, it was not as brilliant as when he had taken refuge in Xu Han. The Qu family also had a marriage for Qu Ning, but Qu Ning had an official position in the imperial court, and he was very self-reliant, and the elders of the Qu family were also enlightened, so they did not force it.

Otherwise, if she didn't want to marry, she would have married a long time ago.

Qu Ning is not a particularly picky person, but it is inevitable to think of the heroic "Liu Gongzi", who has a memory in her heart, and has a good comparison, and the other official sons and brothers belong to one vase after another in her opinion.

"Sister Xu, I wonder if I can do my sister a favor?" Qu Ning suddenly had something to ask for.

"My sister just has to say."

"Actually, it's like King Lin asking about a person, the son of the Liu family...... I don't know where now. ”

Xu Xuanzhu saw Qu Ning's twisted appearance, and probably guessed who this "Liu Gongzi" was, and said with a smile: "I will definitely help you ask when I go back." ”

…………

In the inner court of the palace, Liu Yue went out and was blown by the warm wind, and he lost his interest in reading. Liu Yu was about to take a good walk in the imperial garden, when Qi'er caught up behind and said, "Xianggong, Xianggong, your tea ......"

Liu Yu stopped and turned around, and Qi'er hit his head into his arms, and the books and teacups in Qi'er's hands fell to the ground together. With the "Whoa! There was a sound of a teacup breaking, and a very light footstep also stopped in a startled way, Liu Yue had already noticed that Wu Shuo, a small stutterer not far from his side, was tiptoeing over, and Wu Shuo was obviously frightened by the teacup falling to the ground at this time.

"Have you been scalded with hot tea?"

Liu Yu grabbed Qi'er's little hand and stroked it twice, Qi'er was a little frightened and said, "It's okay, the tea is not so hot." Xianggong, can I go to play with Yaya? ”

"Go ahead, don't run around." Liu Yu looked at Wu Shuo and turned around.

Qi'er nodded happily, finally no longer having to be forced to study by Liu Yue, for her child's heart, being able to play is the happiest thing. Qi'er jumped over and took Wu Shuo's hand and was about to run, Liu Yu immediately asked Lu Chu'er, who was doing nothing on the side, to follow, even in the inner court of the palace, Liu Yu didn't want Qi'er to have no one around to take care of her.

"Slow down, don't fall." Liu Yu saw Qi'er's excited appearance, and shouted again to remind.

Liu Yu sat down on a stone bench in front of a stone table in the imperial garden, and was about to enjoy the flowers, when he heard the footsteps of several people in the distance, it was Chai Jin escorted by the female army guards. Chai Jin was dressed in a wide Confucian robe, and when he walked, he fell together like a cripple, Liu Yue sighed helplessly, just looking at Chai Jin's walking appearance, he knew that he was not a person who did big things.

"Coming?" Liu Yujian Chai Jin entered the pavilion, pointed to the stone bench next to him and said, "Sit." ”

Chai Jin nodded, smiled at the female army guards, and said, "Sisters, thank you." ”

Chai Jin was the only one who was so polite to the female army guards who led the way. The female guards all felt a little flattered, and hurriedly retreated after saluting, Liu Yue knew that these gossipy female army guards would definitely talk about this thing again when they got to a place where no one was.

Liu Yu smiled and asked, "Hulu, you are quite polite, do you recognize them?" ”

"There are a few familiar ones, it should be Brother Liu's house, I used to go to the house to visit, and they often looked at me and laughed one by one. My family once said that whoever smiles at me means that he is good to me. Just like Brother Liu, you smile at me a lot. ”

Liu Yu couldn't help but smile when he heard this, Chai Jin was really poisoned by Su Bi, even if Su Bi was angry with him now that he had reached the point of family change, Chai Jin would still mention "my family's inner son" intentionally or unintentionally. What Su Bi said, Chai Jin thought, in fact, those female guards laughed when they saw him because they were friendly to him, and it was simply because he looked naΓ―ve and stupid.

"How are you doing, ma'am?" Liu Yu asked casually.

"Which one do you ask?"

"Of course, I asked your son-in-law, who is the fourth princess."

Chai Jin heard Liu Yu mention Su Bi, and said with a little unhappiness on his face: "My family still ignores me, it's been many days, I think, she will never forgive me in this life." ”

"Things are man-made, self-cultivation can lead to a family, and cultivate yourself well."

Chai Jin looked at his stomach, probably thinking that Liu Yu's "self-cultivation" was to make him "lose weight", Chai Jin scratched his head for no reason, and said, "I don't know why Brother Liu came to me?" ”

"I want to arrange an errand for you in the court, so that you won't be idle all day long."

"Errands? No need, I'm a very stupid person, a few days ago I was the right minister in Shangshuyuan, and those colleagues have opinions about me one by one, especially those who are old, blowing their beards and glaring at me, I think they still think I'm not competent. ”

"You old man, as a dignified Marquis of Linqing, and the concubine of the fourth princess, you don't want to be pointed at all day long. Looking for an errand in the court, it is good to have a fortune to support the family, and it is not a man's job to eat the old book. ”

When Chai Jin heard this, he nodded as if he had been taught, and said, "Oh." ”

"This errand is still in Shangshuyuan, it's not as busy as last time, it will be very relaxed and happy."

Chai Jin immediately asked, "What errand?" ”

"The squire under the door, just go to the Shangshu Academy every day to see, if there are any errands, Han Xiang will tell you to do it, you can also ignore Han Xiang, as for those who used to blow their beards and stare at you, now they can't care about you, and you don't need to pay attention to them."

Chai Jin looked dazed, obviously he didn't understand what Liu Yu said about what this "servant of the door" was doing, but when he heard what Liu Yu said, he knew that Lu Dao was not a simple errand. The more complicated it is, the less he wants to take it.

"I'll report today, and I'll take you over when Han Xiang comes. Do a good job and don't let your family down. ”

Hearing Liu Yu mention Su Bi, Chai Jincai finally nodded and responded: "Oh." ”

Liu Yuzheng said, Han Sheng also came over accompanied by the female army guards, and Sui Yu, who had just been appointed as the Zhongshu Order, came with Han Sheng. The two came over, Liu Yu explained a few words to Han Sheng, Han Sheng looked Chai Jin up and down, and took Chai Jin to Shangshu Academy to familiarize himself with the working environment.

After the old and young left, Sui Yu gave Liu Yu another salute and took out some affairs of the Commerce and Trade Department for Liu Yu to deal with.

Sui Yu is now the Zhongshu Ling, but she is also a young eunuch of the Department of Commerce and Trade, and now the position of Yamen Shaoqing, the manager of the Department of Commerce and Trade, is nominally represented by Liu Yu, but Sui Yu has the power to act cheaply, and only when the Department of Commerce and Trade has a major matter that is not decided, Sui Yu will come over to ask Liu Yu for instructions.

"There are foreigners doing business in my Dashun Dynasty?" Liu Yu frowned after reading the transcript that Liu Yu handed over.

Sui Yu said: "These Westerners' caravans have arrived in Chang'an City, and they hope that the imperial court will allow them to trade in Chang'an City, and hope that we will open up a port for trade and allow their ships to come and go in large numbers." (To be continued......)
