Chang'an City Street
The carriage was very steady, and the unconsciously asleep Yu Yu didn't know that there was a gaze, borrowing the dim chandelier in the carriage, quietly falling on her sleeping face.
A large, shiny hand lifted the heater that was about to slide down her knees, tested the temperature for a while, and gently placed it between her interlocking hands.
Then, lifting the cloak on her left side, she put her hand on her left arm, and a soothing heat poured in through her clothes, making her whisper comfortably:
"Hmm... Mother. β
Another large hand, which was about to touch her cheek, paused in the air and slowly lowered.
A quarter of an hour later, the frame of the car was tapped from the outside, and the palm that was covering the left arm of the jade was retracted along with the gaze that fell on her face.
The sound of the curtain falling made Yu Yu open her eyes in a daze, looking at the curtain that was attached to the frame of the car after shaking twice, covering her mouth and yawning. Feeling the sound of the wheel in his ears stopping, he asked:
"Is it there?"
"Miss Hui, there is still some way to go."
Yu Yu replied in a daze, twitching her nose twice, the faint scent in the air that made her sleepy retreat slightly, but the scent that had been there since she got into the car did not arouse any suspicion in her.

On the carriage rushing to the Tianwei Pavilion, Ah Sheng was reporting to Li Tai the details of the ritual art competition that the spies below had found in a short period of time.
β... Miss Cheng and Du Ergongzi searched for Miss Lu in the actual temple for an afternoon, and finally it was Hu San, the coachman next to Lu Gongzi, who took them to find Miss Lu who was abandoned in the dilapidated courtyard hidden behind one wall of the temple. Speaking of this, Ah Sheng himself frowned.
"Master, do you need your subordinates to send someone to investigate this person who is secretly drugged?"
"Check." Li Tai closed his eyes and replied in a deep voice, there was nothing unusual on his cold and hard face, but the frequency of tapping his fingers on the tea table revealed the displeasure in his mood.
Ah Sheng continued: "Then Miss Lu got Master Huiyuan's peace charm...... When he came back, the carriage was damaged, and Du Ergongzi rode a horse to carry, uh," Seeing the pause of Li Tai's fingers, he stubbornly continued, "Carry Miss Lu back together, and the rest of the things are just as she said in the building." β
Men and women ride together, and you know what the picture is when you think about it. Li Tai's lip line closed, and he remembered the appearance of a pair of teenagers and girls of similar age running into the gentleman's building hand in hand, and the left hand that was still tapping his fingers just now slowly clenched, and he was unexpectedly concerned in his heart.
Seeing that his master's face was not good-looking, Ah Sheng's mind moved, and the conversation changed:
"Master, let me tell you something interesting, that Hu San was able to find Miss Lu, in fact, it was not all up to him to know the way, but Miss thought of a way to attract a large group of crows on the tree, attracting people's attention to the abnormality there, alas? Do you remember that time when the young lady was locked up in the utility room behind Ganweiju, didn't she also lose a lot of paper balls under the window outside, to say that this smart man, his subordinates have seen a lot, comparableββ"
However, it is obvious that his skills in changing the topic are insufficient, not only did he fail to make Li Tai happy, but he caused Li Tai to open his eyes by mentioning the experience of being framed by Yu Yu. Cast a cold eye.
Ah Sheng hurriedly cut off the conversation and changed his words: "Today, Miss Changsun suffered a secret loss, but it can be regarded as responding to that time when she instructed someone to splash ink on Miss Luββ"
Looking at Li Tai's eyes that had begun to change color, Ah Sheng's forehead left a drop of cold sweat, and he couldn't wait to hit himself in the mouth immediately, what is wrong with him today, what is wrong, this is obviously trying to make people happy, but he picks those jokes that make people angry.
After a moment of silence, Ah Sheng hesitated for a while, carefully worded, and spoke again: "After the origins of Gongzi Lu and Miss Lu are revealed, it would indeed be a good thing if they could be as stable as Gongzi Lu said... Master, if your subordinates say something inappropriate, although Duke Huaiguo is not at the Eldest Sun Mansion at the moment, but-"
"Since it's not worth talking about, then it doesn't need to be said." Li Tai interrupted him, "You have to know, ...... in the future"
What will happen in the future, he didn't say anything, but Ah Sheng, who knew it in his heart, sighed secretly because of the momentary hesitation on his face, and his eyes re-firmed.
Ever since he was a child, he has been by his side, watching him grow from a child to a young man who sometimes frightens and fears him, and says disrespectful words. He often secretly looks at him and accompanies him from the perspective of a brother and father, and it is precisely because he has experienced too much that he can perceive his thoughts from his clues.
The appearance of the relic jade was unexpected by Ah Sheng, and the intermittent contact made him surprised to notice that Li Tai's always single emotions were enriched, and this discovery not only made him happy, but also worried.
Fortunately, after a period of getting along, he saw the character of Yu Yu, and while gradually reassuring, he had to remain silent because of Shen Jiantang's reminder, the little girl's age was still too young, even if her mind was mature enough.
Lu Zhi's confession, and the secret cooperation between him and Li Tai, made things clear, and he was also hesitant for an afternoon, before he wanted to remind Li Tai, but he saw a big, rarely soft-hearted man since he was a child, but he didn't know it, when he interrupted his words. He has already committed the taboo of being soft-hearted.
is reluctant to take advantage of it, why let himself be so obsessed with her, Li Tai can't see it clearly, and he can't figure it out now.
The carriage was quiet all the way, and the carriage stopped outside the Tianhao Pavilion, and for everyone in the pavilion and the banquet, the night had just begun.
***
Yiyu returned to the house, and without waiting for the Lu family to come back, he bathed and slew. After a tired day, she slept very deeply, and she didn't even know that Lu Shi and Lu Zhi were back.
No one woke up in the morning, and she was used to getting up early, but she still opened her eyes before the hour. Lu, who woke up earlier than her, squeezed into the same bed with her, and didn't see her confused appearance when she first woke up for a long time, listening to her softly calling her mother, she couldn't do it for a while, hugged her for a while, and let her fall asleep in her arms again.
The Lu family, who fully satisfied the mother's psychology, got up refreshed to make breakfast for his son and daughter, who were sleeping lazily, and the people in the house were accustomed to this lady who liked to cook by herself.
Lu Zhi slept for a whole hour longer than usual, this was because he had almost not slept for the past few days, and after waking up, he dressed neatly and went to the living room outside Lu's room to sit and drink tea and read a book.
The sleepy-eyed Yu Yu came out of the house with a haha while tying his hair, walked to him and sat down, glanced at the empty cover on the book cover he was holding, and asked casually, "What are you looking at?" β
Lu Zhi didn't look up, and handed her the warm water that Xiaoman had poured next to him just now, "Some big cases in Chang'an City in previous years, the books that my grandfather found." β
"Oh," as soon as a glass of water was drunk, Xiao Man lifted the curtain and walked in, and saw Yu Yu arranging her hair "indiscriminately", so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, took out a small wooden comb from his arms, and stood behind her to dot it.
"Where is Sister Xiaofeng now, nothing happened to her, right?" Before going to bed last night, she was still thinking about this matter, if it weren't for Lu Zhi's promise that he would let people go to Chengfu to inquire, she would go to Chengfu first last night.
"Nothing happened. Where else could she go but home. β
"Did Mrs. Cheng find out?" Cheng Xiaofeng was so anxious, and I didn't know if the matter of pretending to be injured was revealed yesterday.
"Hmm." Responding perfunctorily, Lu Zhi picked up the teacup, unlike Yi Yu, he likes to drink a pot of thick two-course tea when he gets up early.
Yi Yu saw that he didn't want to talk more, but secretly doubted in her heart, she always felt that Cheng Xiaofeng's abnormality in the past few days had nothing to do with him, but she knew that no one could ask about the things he didn't want to say, so she didn't ask more, anyway, she already knew that Cheng Xiaofeng was okay.
Lu Shi lifted the curtain and walked in with a plate with a subordinate behind him, Xiao Man, who had just coiled the jade hair bun with a wooden hairpin, hurriedly stepped forward to help, and placed porridge and side dishes on the dining table, and even hot buns that had just come out of the cage.
Yi Yu sat down next to Lu's and picked up a bun and put it on Lu's plate, "Mother, why did you think of making me a bun to eat." β
"Your eldest brother mentioned it to his mother, saying that you like to eat the steamed buns from a shop, but unfortunately they are not sold, you taste them, and the steamed ones are to your liking." In fact, Lu Shi specially asked Lu Zhi about the stuffing of the buns in the shop, and he pondered at home every day after a few days of leisure, but he only took pity on Lu Zhi and ate no less than ten meals of various strange steamed buns in a row, so that she could make the correct taste.
When Yi Yu looked at this bun, she knew that Lu must have gotten up early, worked in the kitchen for a while, her heart was warm, and she blew a few bites on the white and tender buns, and when she bit it, the delicious soup flowed out, making her squint her eyes.
There is no need to be too polite in front of her own family, she chewed the contents in her mouth, and praised Lu Shi vaguely: "Mother did it, hmm... Than the ones sold in the shop, well... It's delicious. β
Lu Shi sandwiched another Lu Zhi dish in her dish and Lu Zhi's face with a different color when he looked at the bun, looking at her with a look of love and relief, the brother and sister with diametrically opposite moods both smiled and put the bun into their mouths.
At the same time, in another mansion in Chang'an City, Fang Qiao, who had not returned overnight and had only returned after the court meeting, unexpectedly saw his mother with a gloomy face in the main room.
"You come with me." Mrs. Fang dropped such a sentence, and took the maid's hand out of the house, Fang Qiao glanced at Liniang who was standing in the corner of the house with her head bowed, and turned to follow.
The mother and son walked all the way to the ancestral hall, retreated from the people, and after entering the door, they heard the old lady shout:
"To your father, to your grandfather, to our ancestors and ancestors, kneel!"
