Autumn is coming in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Yingsleeve got up early in the morning, the Chinese cabbage was already on the market, and she called the two boys to go out and pull a cart back, pickled sauerkraut, which is indispensable in winter.

The woman who runs the house has a lot of calculations, not only Chinese cabbage, she also plans to buy some radishes, pickle a jar of pickles, in the green and yellow season, there are no greens and can only eat dried vegetables and pickles.

Morning and evening, the weather is cold, the sleeves are wearing a jacket, the head is wrapped in a piece of cloth, and the arms are carrying a wicker basket, the boys said that the car has been set up and parked at the gate, she hurried forward, and just met Yu Gengru through the hanging flower gate. ”

Yu Gengru simply hummed, passed each other, the big and small affairs of the family were all taken care of by Yingsleeve, Yu Gengru didn't ask Yingsleeve where he wanted to go, just waited for a few steps and suddenly turned around and shouted Yingsleeve: "Wait!" ”

Yingsleeves turned around: "Is there something wrong with the master?" ”

Yu Gengru asked her rhetorically: "What are you doing here?" ”

Yingsleeve said: "Buy cabbage, it's time to pickle sauerkraut, this kind of matter is not too late, I see that the streets and alleys are full of Chinese cabbage sellers, and after a few days, the price will be raised, so it is not cost-effective." ”

Yu Gengru thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I won't pickle sauerkraut this year." ”

Yingsleeve was stunned: "If you don't pickle sauerkraut, what do you eat in winter?" ”

Yu Gengru's face was full of worries, and if he wanted to say it or not, he was still willing to reveal one or two things about Yingsleeve, and said, "Maybe we won't be in the capital this winter." ”

Yingsleeve was stunned, and then walked over, there was no one left and right, and he still lowered his voice and said, "The master can't leave Beijing with Miss." ”

Yu Gengru looked at her in surprise: "You, what do you know?" ”

Yingsleeve smiled slightly: "The master's mind can't be hidden from me, the young lady refuses to marry the emperor, and the Ba master married a princess Heshuo, the young lady has no nostalgia, and will inevitably leave the capital, the old man is planning to accompany the young lady, right?" Master, you are confused! ”

Yu Gengru only sighed that this girl was delicate and wise.

Yingsleeve continued: "If we all follow Miss, so many people will be too dazzling. ”

Yu Gengru was entangled in his heart: "However, if Daigo leaves, he may not come back for the rest of his life." ”

Yingsleeve explained him: "The master is afraid that he won't see Miss again, right?" I can't see her for the rest of my life, and I know that she is doing well, so it's worth it, so why don't you marry as a young lady. ”

Yu Gengru fell silent......

The autumn light is just right, the trees are yellow and the leaves are yellow, the wind rustles together, and when you look up, you are full of gold, and the pieces are like gold leaf, falling on the ground, lined with green bricks, which is more eye-catching.

After a while, Yu Gengru waved his hand with a dejected expression: "Go, go buy cabbage." ”

Ying Sleeve saw him slowly turn around, slowly gone, in the prime of life, but his heart is like an old age, knowing that he is reluctant to daughter, Ying Sleeve sighed softly, hoping that Yu Dai can successfully escape this time and live a safe life, so that Yu Gengru can have a better life.

Yu Gengru, who returned to the room, took out the letter that Yu Dai Tona Lan Rongruo handed him again.

At that time, he was resting at home, and the door came to report, saying that a Nalan master came to visit, Yu Gengru thought it was Nalan Mingzhu at first, and was surprised that he had already gone into hiding, what did Mingzhu do with himself?

But everyone came, and it was not good not to see, so he called the girl to serve him to change clothes and wash, and when he went to the front hall and saw that it was Nalan Rongruo, he was even more surprised, just waiting for Nalan Rongruo to take out Yudi's letter to him.

Yu Gengru opened the letter in front of Nalan Rongruo, and said with a smile after reading it: "This child, I am also in the capital, she is still not at ease." ”

Nalan Rongruo said: "Miss Yu is filial. ”

Yu Gengru smiled with satisfaction: "This woman is the top ten sons, and I am very at ease." ”

As he spoke, he put the letter on the slip and talked to Nalan Rongruo about other things.

After eating a cup of tea with each other, Nalan Rongruo stared at the letter, and finally couldn't help but remind Yu Gengru when he left: "For this family letter, Miss Yu has spent a lot of effort, even the Ning Bi girl of Cining Palace has worked, and I met a few maidens at the gate of the palace, and I almost searched for them. ”

Yu Gengru heard that there was something in his words, and looked at him in amazement: "My lord! ”

Nalan Rongruo smiled faintly: "Mr. Yu, take a good look, I still have something to do, so I'll leave." ”

After sending Nalan Rongruo away, Yu Gengru hurriedly returned to the study with the letter, looked left and right, and found nothing special, but Nalan Rongruo's words clearly implied something, and Yu Yu really just wanted to comfort him, a letter from home, there was no need to hide, and he sent it out with all his might.

Therefore, Yu Gengru knew that this letter was secret, but he couldn't guess it for a while.

In this way, he took the letter and studied it for a few days, and finally, when he was reading the letter that day, Ying Sleeve went back and forth to his arrangement of some daily trivial matters, and Yu Gengru himself failed to study the strangeness of the letter thoroughly, so he deliberately spread the letter on the table, Ying Sleeve really saw it, swept his eyes and quickly looked away.

Yu Gengru said: "This child, worried that I miss her, asked someone to send a letter. ”

Yingsleeve's eyes were like mist, and he smiled slightly: "Miss is really filial, but I can't figure it out, Miss's letter is only a few words, how can I write such a big piece of paper." ”

Yu Gengru listened to her words, and suddenly looked at the letter again, and found that the gap between the words was very large, and the secret that he had pondered for several days that he did not understand, but in the words of Yingsleeve, it was like seeing the sun through the clouds, and suddenly became clear.

Waiting for Yingsleeve to leave, Yu Gengru hurriedly took the paper medium and lit the letter, just waiting for it to be burned, the paper was still a complete piece, and clear words had already appeared on it: "Dad, I want to fake my death and leave Beijing, please help me ......"

It turned out that this was a secret letter, and when Yugo wrote it, she was afraid that it would not be discovered by people, after all, the palace was heavily guarded, and there were such eventful concubines in the harem, so she first wrote a normal letter with a brush dipped in ink, and then in the space between the words, she dipped the pen in the alum water and told her father her true purpose.

This method was seen by Yugo from a book bought in the night market, the two armies were fighting, and they needed to deliver secret letters, or ask for help, or rescue, for fear of being intercepted by the enemy, so they used this method to write letters, alum water, write on it, and then burn it, the paper is not deformed, but the words can be revealed.

And alum is a medicinal thing, and Yugo is more familiar with its properties for this reason, and this kind of thing, as a healer, is not difficult to get, so she has the motivation to write a secret letter.

Yu Gengru sighed at his daughter's wit on the one hand, on the other hand, he was sad, fake death, this is not a joke, first of all, he deceived the king, and secondly, once the scale is not accurate, fake death will become real death, he wants to help his daughter, but also afraid of hurting his daughter, a hesitation, after a while, after a while, listening to the autumn wind outside the window, he thought, if he hesitates, his daughter stays in the palace, sooner or later something will happen.
