Chapter 161: There is cause and effect, and everyone has his own destiny

"It's not very good, there were a few illnesses in the first month, I only rushed to fix the family affairs, and it took a few months to look better, I just said that she had to eat her daughter-in-law's tea, and it didn't hurt to rush the happy event, who knew that there was such a thing, Yushitai, and it was possible to scare people to death by taking people to fight, and Mrs. Wu was thinking of the old feelings, and she was not afraid of being implicated, so she brought someone over, otherwise no one would know if she died there...... "Ah Yuan said, wiping the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.

There were seven or eight lights in the room, which made people's eyes hurt, and then I saw Lindsay Yu sitting beside me in a daze, and she didn't make a sound, only tears came down from the corners of her eyes.

Sometimes Lin Saiyu thinks back, and always can't remember the description of the old people before, at that time, she was only in her thirties, thin and small, and her face was miserable, but there was a trace of arrogance in her every move, and there was a trace of unwillingness in the humility of having to beg others to survive.

"Eldest sister, it's okay, let's give the leftovers to eat." The woman stood in front of Cao Sanlang's house with a stick, her figure was already shaky, and her hand trembled and stretched out, her voice was a little hoarse, but it was still very gentle, it seemed that the person standing in front of her was a very familiar person, and what she said was just gossip about the good weather today, not impatient, not bitter, not sad, but full of helplessness.

At that time, there were groups of people fleeing the famine, like locusts from the front of the door countless times, what Lindsay Yu could do was to close the door tightly, let the outside cry to death, she was not cold-hearted, the current situation, either you die or I die, Lindsay Yu is reluctant to throw away her life, as long as Lu and Cao Saburo go out to find a livelihood, she will follow the kitchen knife in front of the big urn that stored a little food, but that day, a chicken that was crazy at home squeezed out of the crack in the door, Where can Lin Saiyu allow it to kill itself and bring herself tired, there is one less chicken, Lu Shifei beat her half to death, so she opened the door, smashed the chicken's leg with a stick, and grabbed it back, at this moment, Liu's mother and son walked outside the door.

Lin Saiyu looked at her blankly, the first time she saw someone asking for food with such calmness, maybe it was her momentum, or maybe it was the thin young man who snuggled tightly next to her, the child was no longer human, his lips were chapped, his arms and legs like hemp rods kept trembling, he smiled at her a little timidly, Lin Saiyu's tears almost burst out of her eyes, like her younger brother, the younger brother who followed her since she was a child and dropped out of school early for her to study, the younger brother who went back to the village to help her build an orchard despite her father's opposition.

“…… I didn't suffer any sin, and when I left, I was clean, and I didn't take off my image...... Madam, I have done everything that should be done, speaking of which, she is a kind person, so she has a game with me as a master and servant, but pity her for not having a person to send her to the end before leaving......" Ah Yuan sniffed, stopped, and slowly ate a sip of tea.

"Where is it buried? I'm going to burn some money with her, and that's right. Lin Saiyu asked silently in tears.

"You also know, in this situation, where do you dare to take them in, I easily begged someone, temporarily placed in the temple, the person who killed a thousand knives is locked in prison, I can't see it, if I can see it and ask in detail, it is a thousand difficulties, and I will send him home." With a little anxiety on his face, Ah Yuan put down the tea in his hand heavily.

Lin Saiyu was even more sad when she heard this, and the tears that had been stopped fell again, Ah Yuan glanced at her a few times, hesitated for a moment and said, "Madam, there is something I have to embarrass you." As he spoke, he stood up and knelt down at Lindsay's feet.

Lin Saiyu was startled, and hurriedly dragged her up, but Ah Yuan couldn't get up, so he kowtowed before he said, "Woman, this is not for me to knock for you, but to worship you for Old Madam Liu." ”

Lin Saiyu was stunned and said with tears: "You get up, I know her heart, I answer, you get up." ”

Ah Yuan stood up, bowed his head and said: "But it's embarrassing for Mrs., I didn't want to, I didn't want to, I didn't want to do his business, the ones he planted in the field now are growing well, but those people are bad and tired of him, thinking that he will be locked up for a few days, and the official will be able to come out, who knows what Mrs. Wu panicked a few days ago and said that she was condemned to death, and she was going to be beheaded after the autumn." ”

Lin Saiyu was also stunned, she actually sinned to death? Didn't you say that the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty rarely killed ministers? At most, exiled far away, out of sight and out of mind.

In fact, it was really Liu Xiaohu who was unlucky, originally Yushitai didn't want to kill him, the highlight of Yushitai was Su Shi, Su Shi was tried twice, more than 60 poems were suspected of slander, and it has been connected to dozens of people below Sima Guang, and some people in order to clear up the relationship, they are even more alarmist.

But the Empress Dowager came forward to intercede, in July, the Empress Dowager Cao could no longer get up, the emperor cried in front of the window, saying that he wanted to amnesty the world and pray for his grandmother, but the Empress Dowager said that she should not amnesty the world, as long as she pardoned Su Shi alone.

"Su Shi just said some nonsense, even if it was a crime, it was harmless, where was it like that Liu Yanzhang, but he said a lot of good things, what happened? How many people have been harmed? Harm the world! If you want to talk about capital crimes, he is capital crimes! Empress Dowager Gao, who had been serving by her side, also spoke.

Speaking of which, the royal family of the Song Dynasty has been yin and yang, these emperors are soft and weak, and even crying and crying at every turn, but these women who dominate the harem shout and kill at every turn, Empress Dowager Cao fought against the palace change alone, naturally it is a woman's spirit, and Empress Dowager Gao is short-tempered, the first because of the imperial history nagging her son to live in the palace and violate the rules and want to kill the imperial history, a few days ago because of the fire in the son's palace shouted to kill the daughter-in-law, today he opened his mouth to kill Liu Yanzhang, and the end was an artillery barrel.

In this way, Su Shi commuted the death penalty by one degree, and the miscarriage was released, while Liu Yanzhang was convicted of a capital crime because the disaster was unforgivable.

"Madam, before Mrs. Liu went, she said that she was sorry for you, she couldn't repay you in this life, and she would be a cow and a horse to serve you in the next life, just ask you to pull Liu Xiaohu, so as to keep the incense of the Liu family, madam, I can't ask for others now, it's useless for others to beg, Mrs. Wu said, you are going to enter the palace to see the emperor, you can say a good word for him, so as to save your life." Ah Yuan bowed his head and said, sighed, and laughed mockingly, "Speaking of which, I want to slap myself in the mouth, I was trying to stop you from breaking off contact with the Liu family, but today, I came to beg you for them." Saying that, Zhengse looked at Lin Saiyu and said, "Madam, why don't you slap it in the face?" ”

Lin Saiyu was originally full of sadness, but she was provoked by her words, and there were tears on her face.

"It's just Xie Longen who came to see me, I don't know if I can speak, but don't worry, but if I can say it, I will definitely say it, even if you don't come to tell me today, I know that he has been sentenced to death, and I want to say it." Lin Saiyu also straightened his face and took Ah Yuan's hand.

Ah Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "This is going to be listened to." Guan Bao said that we eat salty radishes and worry about it, and some people want to say that we are rushing people to make a gesture, especially Mrs. You, now pleading for your ex-husband, not to mention that your official mother-in-law is jealous, then the world will listen to it, and it will inevitably laugh at you for staining people, and you will bear the kowtow of Mrs. Liu. ”

Lin Saiyu sighed and said: "He is not guilty of death, in the end he is a teachable, I came to see the cotton he planted, if it really dies like this, it is a pity, as the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the cultivation is in everyone, but I didn't lead him, but I coaxed him to indulge him, this today's fruit, also has my cause." ”

Ah Yuan bowed his head to her when he heard this, Lin Saiyu hurriedly stopped, Ah Yuan said: "Woman, you are naturally acting brightly, but there are some things that I still have to say to your official mother-in-law, so as not to mess up your family with those bad words, as the saying goes, three people become tigers." Saying that, he got up and opened the door, Yumei was sitting outside the door, hurriedly stood up, Lindsay Yu wanted to stop, Ah Yuan pushed her hand away, and said with a smile: "I know you don't care, I have the right to buy a peace of mind?" "While asking Yumei, I want to see the big official and the old lady.

"The big officials and the whole brother and sister Xiang are all in the old lady's house." Yumei said, glancing at Lin Saiyu before hurriedly walking forward, "Eldest sister come with me." ”

Lin Saiyu couldn't just take her away, and when she arrived in Mrs. Su's house, she could only hear bursts of laughter inside, and when she went in, she saw a room of people playing drumming and passing flowers, among which there were some women singing with musical instruments, ** Holding Sister Xiang and standing aside to watch, the whole brother and Mrs. Su were crowded on the bed, knocking a bed of melon seeds.

Ah Yuan had already told Su Jinnan about the matter in advance, so seeing that Lin Saiyu's eyelids were swollen, Mrs. Su didn't see it, so she sent ** to sleep with Sister Xiang'er, although the whole brother was not happy, but he also obediently followed his mother-in-law down, and only a few of them were left in the room, so Ah Yuan knelt down, said what he said to Lindsay Yu, and kowtowed a few more times.

"Good boy, you are so righteous, I can't afford your courtesy." Mrs. Su hurriedly asked the girl to help Ah Yuan up, and said with a smile, "It's really a clever child, who speaks and acts in a measured manner, better than your master!" ”

Lin Saiyu smiled on the side, held back again, saw that Ah Yuan also smiled, looked at Mrs. Su and said, "Grandma has a good temperament, Madame followed you, but it is a blessing from cultivation." ”

Old Madam Su smiled and nodded, "Indeed." While looking at Lin Saiyu, he said, "That's nothing, according to me, that person shouldn't die, it's okay to be scared, but no one in this court dares to speak for him, not to mention that you have a marriage with him, even if you are familiar with him every day, you should say a good word or two when you see him." Said with a smile, and said, "At most, he slapped you in the face, and it wasn't a mutual enmity, we can't do that thing that fell into the ground, you have spoken for him now, but you have gained enough face." ”

Lin Saiyu snorted and didn't speak, Su Jinnan just pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word, so Mrs. Su nodded: "If there is one thing, only this once, act in moderation, you don't want to annoy the heavenly family and affect the family." ”

Lin Saiyu bowed her head and said: "The daughter-in-law knows, does her best, obeys people's orders, and the daughter-in-law has always known." ”

July 20, it was a sunny day, Lin Saiyu, who was wearing a dress of Mrs. Yipin, followed the chamberlain on the palace path, she lowered her head, looked at the path that was still clean under her feet, suddenly her heart beat and she couldn't help but look back, and the gradually closed palace gate revealed the figure of Su Jinnan looking.

"Madame walks like this." The soft voice of the chamberlain came, interrupting Lin Saiyu's stunned gaze, she didn't dare to think about it anymore, she hurriedly put on a smiling face, and respectfully followed the chamberlain through the labyrinthine palace and came to the front of the Chongzheng Palace.

At the suggestion of the waiter, Lindsay Yu asked for a roll call with a trembling voice, and heard a "Xuan" from inside, and then came out of a waiter, leading her into the hall, this trip Lindsay Yu still did not have any sense of superiority through the people, still nervous hands and feet trembling, a little flustered salute, according to the usual procedure, the emperor said a kind word, she was honest and humble, and then, the emperor stopped talking, and the room fell into silence, which made Lindsay Yu more nervous.

"Liu Yanzhang acted rashly, brought disaster to the country and the people, and sentenced him to death, what does Madame think?" The Emperor said suddenly.

Lin Saiyu was stunned in her heart, and then burst into joy, sure enough, the emperor didn't want Liu Yanzhang to die, and she was embarrassed about how to speak, and she immediately relaxed a little, and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine is a village woman, and she doesn't dare to discuss politics." ”

Hearing that the emperor above seemed to chuckle lightly, he said: "Cao, I have to listen to you, it still seems that Liu Yanzhang's crime can lead to death?" ”

The biggest official Lin Saiyu had ever seen in his previous life was the county magistrate of his poor county, and he just shook hands on the podium, where did he know the officialdom's response strategy, and he was sweating for a while, and he didn't dare to wait for the emperor for a long time, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Liu Yanzhang originally worked hard for himself, but once he is punished now, I am afraid that future generations will say that His Royal Highness will not be able to tolerate talents, and I hope Your Majesty will severely punish and warn, but avoid his capital crime." ”

After saying these few words, Lin Saiyu seemed to have exhausted her strength, and she was covered with a heavy dress, which made her feel hot, in this situation, she couldn't help but be afraid, she was originally an ordinary person who was not good at words, and she just knew more technology than these people, she was not a fairy, once this emperor was going to cut off her head, she couldn't save it, she tried hard to remember that she had seen those crossings in her previous life, How can the bullish protagonist in it point out the country in front of the emperor and be in high spirits like the arrival of the Daluo Immortals, but at this time, recalling these things, pure fragmentation can only make her brain more chaotic.

"Liu Yanzhang has made such a big mistake, how can I avoid his guilt?" The emperor seemed to sigh, his voice filled with helplessness and reluctance.

Lin Saiyu, who was mixing the rivers and lakes in his mind, raised his head suddenly, and said, "He didn't propose that everyone in the world grow cotton, where is his fault?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw that the emperor with a beautiful face blushed in vain, and said coldly: "Cao, do you mean that it is my fault?" ”

Lindsay Yu's stuffy sweat turned into cold sweat, and he knelt down and kowtowed: "The concubine is dead!" The concubines don't dare! ”

As the saying goes, the holy will is unpredictable, the face of the emperor, the face of the doll, can be changed when it is said, not to mention that she is facing the emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty who is rumored to have a family mental illness, saying that the emperor of the Song Dynasty does not know whether it is a bad gene, or too much professional pressure, the successive emperors are either crazy or stupid, and the early days are countless, Song Taizong's son burned the palace, Song Zhenzong almost killed his son, Song Renzong fell into a coma from time to time, Song Yingzong had madness, and today's Song Shenzong's spiritual arrogance is naturally not optimistic.

Stimulating the mentally ill is self-defeating.

"Your Majesty, the concubine also planted cotton last year, quite successful, this cotton feels planted, only because of its lack of good seeds, and because the sowing temperature is extremely difficult to master, so it led to the death of the seed and the destruction of the land, Your Majesty, that Liu Yanzhang planted the cotton survival is higher, it can be seen that he is not reckless, Your Majesty, the cotton benefit is as Liu Yanzhang said, it is really a great benefit to the country and the people, please Your Majesty to keep Liu Yanzhang's life, and charge him to time limit, cultivate good seeds, and then promote, and can not abandon cotton without planting." Lin Saiyu leaned over and said in one breath, not forgetting to kowtow.

Almost when Lindsay's eyes were full of stars, the emperor above his head finally spoke, and this time his tone was much softer: "Madame, please get up." ”

Lin Saiyu subconsciously wanted to stand up, but soon gave in again, and under the emperor's persuasion again, he stood to the side with weak legs.

"I don't condemn deeply, but it is difficult to convince the world, after all, the disaster was caused by him, and now there is a lady for him, but he can be lenient, cultivate his good seeds, and then see the results." The emperor spoke slowly.

Lin Saiyu, who had not yet stood firm on her legs, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose not to kneel anymore, but to bow deeply: "Your Majesty, Mingjun, the concubines thank you for all the people." ”

She said this sentence sincerely, this emperor can choose to spare Liu Xiaohu's life, it can be seen that he hopes that the country will be strong and the people will be rich, no matter what, the emperor in front of him who has set off a wave of reform is indeed a young man who thinks he is ambitious, but it is a pity that he chose a road of reform that is too difficult.

Lin Saiyu raised his head boldly, and looked at this emperor again, although he couldn't remember the specific time, Lin Saiyu knew that this emperor didn't have a few years to live, and the emperor who was just thirty-two years old at this time was in his prime, although he was still as noble as he first saw it, but his face was a little sickly, and soon the war against Western Xia that Shen Kuo participated in would give this young man another fatal blow, there was no one like Wang Anshi who dared to teach him face-to-face, and there was no rich country and strong people who had the expectation of reform. can only fill the empty spiritual world with the rotten court life, the emperor who was originally congenitally bad naturally lived for a short time, thinking of this, somehow my heart is sour, looking at history is one thing, experiencing history in person is naturally another thing, according to his own age, but experiencing the process of the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, it will not be a pleasure.

"Cao, how does my appearance compare to my husband?" Seeing this woman staring at himself as if she had seen it for the first time, the emperor, who was originally depressed because of the lack of time for Empress Dowager Cao, suddenly felt very funny, perhaps because of the dress lining, plus Lindsay Yu plumped up a little after giving birth, at this time this woman was strict in the emperor, but she was a beautiful woman with long traces of thick fat and delicate, especially at this moment, a trace of sorrow appeared on her face, which was even more touching, and she couldn't help but pause, and laughed at the woman, and sighed in her heart, Liu Yanzhang, Liu Yanzhang, Liu Yanzhang, Why isn't there such a blessing?

Lin Saiyu was secretly sad about the soon-to-live emperor in front of him, but when he heard his joke that was quite explicit even now, he immediately blushed, and he wanted to bury his head in his clothes, but Nuo Nuo didn't dare to speak.

The court in the second year of Yuanfeng, first because of Su Shi's poetry case, and then because of Liu Yanzhang's cotton case, an unprecedented whirlwind blew in the court, which made everyone in the courtiers feel at risk and uneasy.

Since he came in for half a month, because he was busy interrogating Su Shi, who lived next to him, Liu Xiaohu only passed the hall three times, and no one paid attention to him, and no one came to visit him.

"You can't be stupid, right?" The official patrolling the prison glanced at Liu Xiaohu, who was in a daze as always, and talked to his companion in a low voice.

"Master Su was rescued a few days ago, and it is estimated that he also knows that he has been convicted of death, so he is stupid." The companion pursed his lips, and he didn't mind Liu Xiaohu in the cell hearing his words.

"Open the door, someone will visit the prison!" There was a banging on the door from outside the deep cell.

"Eighty percent is that the old man of the Liu family is annoyed by crying, so let him come and send a guillotine meal to his master." When the official said this, he came in response, walked over unhurriedly, opened the door, and sure enough, there was an old man named Zhang Si who slept outside the prison day and night, with a rickety figure and a basket full of them.

"What are you shouting, but there is a warrant?" The official counted impatiently, and before he could raise his eyes, he felt that a large piece of silver was stuffed into his hand, and a pleasant female voice sounded in his ears.

"Poor big brother, it's convenient, here is an adult's warrant, and I bother the eldest brother to give me more time." Ah Yuan said with a smile, the little tiger teeth that were exposed made the servants dizzy, and saw a woman of about the same age standing behind her, although there were not many accessories, but it didn't look shabby, this Liu Xiaohu only had an old lady, and now that the old lady is dead, where did the female relatives come from to visit him? It is said that he was married, but something happened before he could get married, and the family was too late to run, where would they come to see him, the official couldn't help but look at the two women curiously, and felt that the woman standing behind seemed to stare at him impatiently.

"Go and come back quickly, less verbose." The servant turned sideways and watched as the three men went in one by one.

It was the first time for Lin Saiyu to enter the cell, and that time when Su Jinnan was sued by Qing'er, because of the preferential treatment of the officials of the Daimyo Mansion, he did not enter the cell at all.

"Be careful, slippery." Ah Yuan held Lin Saiyu in time to prevent her from falling.

"How can it be so weak!" Lin Saiyu pushed her away, laughed in a low voice, and then saw that Zhang Si had already thrown them away, and saw his master's house at a glance, walked a few steps to the innermost prison, knelt down and cried.

"Master, the old lady is gone, you can change into filial piety clothes." Zhang Si cried, took out a white Tang scarf from the basket and handed it over, that Liu Xiaohu originally ignored the things around him, and he didn't even look at it when he knelt down and cried when he died in battle, but he only heard the old lady go, and then he snorted from his throat, and he didn't come to pick up the clothes, he knelt on the spot, slammed his head on the ground, and cried and whimpered in his mouth, and couldn't hear what he said.

"Master, master, you mourn, you have to take care of Sister Ayuan, grandma walked peacefully, sent smoothly, master, don't hurt your body, carefully grandma is not at ease." Zhang Si cried, shaking his hand and trying to help Liu Xiaohu up, and then seeing that Lin Saiyu and A Yuan outside had already burst into tears.

"Sister Ayuan, I, Liu Yanzhang, thank you." Liu Xiaohu listened, knelt down in a few steps, and didn't look outside and kowtowed, the echo in the deep room was agitated, and his forehead was already bloody in an instant.

"Erlang, hurry up." Lin Saiyu wiped away his tears and cried, Liu Xiaohu didn't pay attention to who came outside, suddenly heard this voice, couldn't help but pause, his eyes looked at him blankly, and muttered: "How is her voice......" His eyes have already adapted to this room, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Lin Saiyu standing next to Zhang Si, who had already half-squatted down, the woman in front of him, without powder, dressed as before, couldn't help tears fell, the two looked at each other with tears in their eyes, and didn't speak for a while.

"Makes you laugh." With Zhang Sishou putting the Tang scarf on him through the fence, Liu Xiaohu came back to his senses, and the expression on his face returned to indifference, while taking the clothes and putting them on, he said lightly, but he didn't look at Lin Saiyu again.

"Erlang, do you have any grievances?" Lindsay asked.

Liu Xiaohu changed his clothes, his expression was no longer excited, and when he heard the question, he looked at Lin Saiyu, smiled slightly, and said, "Don't worry, I have figured it out these days, I know." ”

Seeing him smile like this, Lin Saiyu's tears suddenly fell again, but he didn't speak anymore, just looked at him in a daze and nodded, looking at her like this, Liu Xiaohu didn't look away, and the two stared blankly across the black pillar.

Outside the prison came the impatient scolding of the servant, Lin Saiyu came back to his senses, hurriedly took out a stack of paper full of words from his body, handed it over, and said: "I went to your field to see, you did a good job, so that the cotton seedlings are early, complete, and Qi, but not even and strong, although cotton is drought tolerant, but all things are the soil, fertilizer is strong, water is life, and the soil you choose is not enough." ”

Liu Xiaohu subconsciously stretched out his hand to take it, and said, "Have you been to see it?" Do you think it's better to soak for a long time or a short time? ”

"The key to soaking seeds is to master that the seeds should not absorb too much water, the seed coat is soft, and the cotyledons are delayered, depending on the water temperature, in fact, there is no need to emphasize the temperature field soaking, the length of the piece you have not soaked is also excellent, and the amount of sowing you have mastered well, but the depth ......is not enough," Lindsay Yu said, stretching out his finger to give him a gesture, "That's enough." ”

It was the first time that the officials heard it when they were discussing professional issues, and the officials who came to urge for a while didn't know how to speak, or Ah Yuan came back to his senses, stomped his feet and said, "Oh, what kind of place is this, say this!" ”

Liu Xiaohu smiled, looked down at the paper in his hand, and asked, "What is this?" He shook his head again and said, "The words still haven't grown." ”

"I can't grow in, you can make do with it." Lin Saiyu glared at him, and said with a smile, "Hey, Liu Xiaohu, can you watch it now?" What I've written is all about cotton growing. ”

Seeing that she had a somewhat sarcastic look, Liu Xiaohu raised the paper in his hand, sat down on the straw mat, and said: "Hua'er, you underestimate me again, although I didn't win the test, but I didn't learn anything. He waved his hand and said, "Hurry up, don't delay me in reading a few more." ”

Zhang Si cried again when he heard this, knelt down and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely place the old lady's coffin in the ancestral grave." After saying that, he kowtowed a few more times, and Liu Xiaohu returned the salute on the spot and said, "Thank you, uncle, Liu Yanzhang has nothing to repay in this life, and he will remember your great kindness in the next life." Saying this, his eyes couldn't help but fall on Lin Saiyu again, seeing that she was also looking at herself in a daze, her eyes were facing each other, and her throat couldn't help but hurt, and the official had already urged, so the three of them packed up and turned away.

"Flowers." Liu Xiaohu couldn't help but walk to the door, clenched the pillar with both hands, and said slowly: "It was me who was wrong at that time, but why didn't you wait for me anymore?" Give me a cry, make a fuss, even if you just ask if you have her or not? How can you just walk away? ”

His voice just turned around his mouth, as small as the sound of mosquitoes, the footsteps of four or five people kicking and beating in the cell, the collision of the sabres of the servants, and the cries of the prisoners in the next cell, which were instantly drowned out, and no one heard his words, Liu Xiaohu just looked at it in a daze, watching the woman go farther and farther, and disappeared into the glimmer of light at the end of the cell.

"Liu Yanzhang! Liu Yanzhang! I don't know how long it took, through the small transparent window in the prison, Liu Xiaohu had finished reading the pile of papers, his eyes were sour, and he couldn't help but nod or suddenly while looking at it, and from time to time he used his hands on the ground to thank him for painting, and his whole body and mind were put into it, so that the official knocked on the cell door and shouted for a long time without hearing it.

"Liu Yanzhang! Your Majesty has a decree to allow you a one-year period to breed cotton seeds, and then you will discuss the sins and give them to you. The attendant from the palace frowned, ignored the stupid person in front of him, read the will aloud, threw it down and left, and Liu Xiaohu didn't know what happened until he picked up the holy decree and read it himself.

At the end of October of the second year of Yuanfeng, the Empress Dowager Cao died, at the end of October of the third year of Yuanfeng, the royal territory of the capital was happy to harvest cotton, newly made jackets, dozens of quilts, the saint was happy, gave the minister, and squeezed dozens of catties of oil, used for lamp oil, and specially allowed Jinggi Road to try planting, in order to see the results, exempt Liu Yanzhang from the death penalty, reinstated, Liu Yanzhang for his mother to keep filial piety and not accept, in November to help his mother's coffin to return to the name, since then I don't know what happened.

Yuanfeng six years is close to the Dragon Boat Festival, is about to come to the summer harvest of the good season, because yesterday there was a rain, the weather is neither hot nor cold, it is a good time to travel, Lin Saiyu sat in the carriage, while watching the whole brother and Sister Xiang throw stones to play, while talking to Su Jinnan who was riding a horse on the side through the open curtains.

"The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as our own grass nest, and it is reasonable for my mother to refuse to go with us." Seeing that Lin Saiyu was still pulling his face, Su Jinnan couldn't help but smile and comfort, they went to Cheng'an this time, and they made a special trip to persuade Cao Sanlang's family to move to Jiangning with them, but the grandmother had passed away last year, but the Lu family still did not agree to move there.

"It's just that she can't bear the land and the orchard, but I'm afraid I'll ask her for it! How can I be so stingy, even if I don't give it to me, it will be a waste in the future......" Lin Saiyu puffed out her mouth and said, while slapping Sister Xiang'er's hand, "Don't eat your hands, it's so big, and you still eat your fingers!" ”

Su Jinnan smiled, shook his head and said, "What kind of chaos!" You're suspicious again! ”

They were walking on the field road at this time, there was dry land on both sides, full of wheat, all of which were already yellow, Lindsay Yu pouted and turned her gaze, and suddenly patted the car to ask the driver to stop, and without waiting for the car to stop, he jumped down and walked to the side of a wheat field, and said on the other side: "Brother Jin, Brother Jin, come and see, this wheat field grows so well, in my opinion, at least the income is increased by one percent compared to other fields!" ”

She is used to this as a family, Brother Quan and Sister Xiang don't pay attention to it at all, and they are still happy to play by themselves, while Su Jinnan walked over to see her, and couldn't help nodding when she saw it, and said, "It really looks good!" Lady, it's better than what you grow in your home! ”

Lin Saiyu nodded, hmmmm ”

shouted a few times, but didn't see the person look up, Su Jinnan took her hand and said, "Shouldn't it be ...... here," called a few times, but still no one answered, so he threw it away, thought about it, quietly pulled down a few wheat trees, and said with a smile: "Borrow a few from him, go back and learn from them."
