Chapter 162: The Courtyard

The matter involved Ding, and even Concubine Xian was not easy to interrogate any further: "...... Okay, that's it, everything will be decided by His Majesty after the next court! Concubine Xian said lightly.

When Emperor Tan went down to the court, he listened to Concubine Xian's report on all this, and he didn't say anything and directly ordered Hongxing, Ling'er and Jia Tuan Master to be taken into custody.

The little fish's heart jumped. was about to intercede with Emperor Tan for Hong Xing, but he didn't expect Emperor Tan to look at her and say, "It's okay, just put them in the prison for the time being to protect them, lest someone want to assassinate them!" ”

The assassination matter, Emperor Tan raised it high and put it down gently, he did not search for it, but he ordered the queen to live in Kunning Palace temporarily, and he could not come out without a will, and then found something trivial and reprimanded the prince, and ordered the prince to think about it behind closed doors.

Emperor Tan also issued an edict to the Duke of Wei Guo who was far away in Blackwater City, but he did not do anything to King Ding, but seemed to rely more on King Ding. The harem is temporarily handled by Concubine Xian to take care of all things in the six palaces, and she is even more fond of Concubine Jin, and she spends most of the month in Concubine Jin's palace.

Xiao Yu couldn't figure out what Emperor Tan thought, so he simply practiced self-cultivation and embroidery at home, and practiced the rules under Aunt Liu. But Hou Ye has been even busier during this time, and all kinds of people in the study have come and gone frequently.

The queen and the crown prince were suddenly involved in the suspicion of rebellion, although they did not abolish the crown prince, but Emperor Tan's will to make the queen and the prince think about it behind closed doors still put everyone in the capital who was close to the queen's family at risk.

In order to avoid suspicion, Mrs. Qin took the initiative to suspend Xiaoyu and Qi Pan's classes, and Qin Xueyi was also detained in the mansion, so she had to write to Xiaoyu frequently to complain.

Liu Yayue died tragically in the palace, and Mrs. Liu only received the comfort of Concubine Xian's decree on behalf of the queen and the reward of Emperor Tan. The eldest princess didn't say anything, and Mrs. Liu's family had no choice but to knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs, Liu Yajuan wrote a letter to Xiaoyu, vaguely expressing her worries about marrying into the royal family.

Xiaoyu has been happy and idle recently, except for Qi Fei who makes a little stumbling from time to time, life has been unexpectedly smooth.

The clothes of the Yunshang shop are selling more and more prosperously, especially a few young ladies who are going to marry into the East Palace, and they are purchasing on a large scale, Xiaoyu seized this business opportunity and designed several unique wedding dresses.

On this day, Xiaoyu received a quarterly dividend from Yunshang Shop, and now with some dividend income from Lan Kwai Fong, Xiaoyu is also a wealthy man. Before, she asked Yue Gongzi to buy some fertile land outside the city, and recently Yue Gongzi sent a letter to buy two small courtyards in the capital for her.

Xiaoyu really wanted to go out to see her small yard, but after the last incident, Mrs. repeatedly ordered her to strictly prohibit her from going out, and finally with the help of the gold bricks, she disguised herself as a maid and went out.

The small courtyard that Yue Gongzi bought for her is two streets away from the Hou Mansion, and it is a mansion for the old Sipin officials. Because of the rush to return to the hometown, the seller asked for a low price, and the only requirement was a cash transaction, which was delivered within three days.

Xiao Yu followed the route drawn on the letter of Yue Gongzi, and came to his new yard in a circle, fortunately there are gold bricks all the way, otherwise Xiao Yu, a road idiot, is estimated to be in those intricate alleys and don't know how long it will be.

When Xiaoyu finally saw the courtyard, the fatigue and anxiety of finding the way were gone. At the entrance is a clump of green bamboo, white walls and green tiles, and clusters of blooming roses flow down from the wall like a waterfall.

"Wow......! It's so beautiful! Before entering the door, Xiaoyu was amazed by the rose! The gate is very chic, not to mention the exquisite door face carved in stone outside, the gate is also designed in the shape of a full moon, and there are quaint wind chimes hanging under the eaves, and the breeze blows, and a small bell rings with the wind.

"Gold Brick, quick, let's go in and have a look!" , The little fish was pleasantly surprised by the little trick in the corner, and she couldn't wait to pull the gold brick and rush to the door.

Entering the door is a shadow wall with white walls and blue tiles, on which are painted sparse bamboo vertical and horizontal, plum shadow is light, a few brushstrokes, quite charming.

The shadow wall turned, and Yue Gongzi was standing in the courtyard, looking at the small fish lightly. "Yue Gongzi, long time no see!" , Xiaoyu said hello to Yue Gongzi in a happy mood.

Yue Gongzi coughed lightly, looked at Xiao Yu expectantly and said, "What do you think of this courtyard?" Xiao Yu said in surprise: "Yue Gongzi, where did you find this yard, I like it so much, I am so satisfied, I have simply picked up a treasure, this is the kind of yard in my dream!" As she spoke, she stretched out her arms and happily circled around the yard.

Yue Gongzi looked at Xiao Yu and said with bright eyes, this was almost the first time he had seen her since he met her, and he was so happy. He smiled dotingly and said, "Well, you can take a look inside first and then see if you like it or not, let's go, I'll take you in to have a look!" ”

Xiao Yu happily followed behind him and said: "Just by looking at this face, I know that the previous owner of this yard must be a person with hills and valleys in his chest, and he is a person with great taste, and I know that the room inside must be my favorite if I don't look at it!" ”

The corners of Yue Gongzi's mouth were slightly upturned, and although he didn't understand the look on his face, his pace was obviously brisk.

As soon as the gold brick entered the courtyard, he didn't know where to go, only Xiaoyu and Yue Gongzi walked inside.

The early summer sun is not too strong, the yard is filled with the sweet fragrance of roses, a breeze blows, there is the sound of bamboo leaves mixed with wind chimes, and there is such a picturesque and pleasing beautiful man as Yue Gongzi by his side, Xiaoyu feels like he is in a dream.

"Yue Gongzi, seriously, where did you find such a great yard, this is the yard of my dreams!" , Xiaoyu gently folded a rose, sniffed mischievously on the tip of his nose, and looked at Yue Gongzi and asked.

Yue Gongzi glanced at Xiaoyu, pursed his lips and did not speak. To tell the truth, he bought this yard when Xiaoyu first asked him to find a small yard, and then he personally designed and renovated it, and after almost half a year of redecoration, even the plants in the yard were replanted and designed. Finally, when the roses were in full bloom, I told Xiaoyu to buy them.

This small courtyard has five main rooms, with side rooms on both sides, and a small garden at the back, although the garden is not big, there is still a small lotus pond, and the pavilions and water pavilions by the lotus pond are complete.

There is also a high-rise building, located on the east side of the entire courtyard. The little fish excitedly jumped around the rooms. "Wow, this study is great!" "Ah, it's just right for the nurse to live here!" "Oh, there's even a pharmacy!" The more Xiao Yu looked, the more surprised he became, the high-rise building was designed to be a library building, with a total of three floors, and the bookshelves were directly to the top.

And the furniture inside is very exquisite, and it can be seen that the people who put it up have put a lot of thought into it. Xiao Yu turned his head to look at Yue Gongzi and said suspiciously: "Yue Gongzi, are these all left by the head of the household?" How do I feel like a good fit for me? ”

Yue Gongzi looked at Xiao Yu with a pair of phoenix eyes, and Xiao Yu could clearly see his reflection in his eyes. She bit her lip and moved away from Yue Gongzi slightly. There is no way, the charm of the handsome guy is too great, as soon as Yue Gongzi stares at her, Xiaoyu feels that his heart is about to jump out.

Yue Gongzi smiled narrowly, the smile on his face was fleeting, and he motioned for Xiaoyu to follow him. Yue Gongzi took Xiaoyu into the small study next to the bedroom, and behind a particularly delicate ebony chest of drawers, a secret door was in sight.

Yue Gongzi stretched out his hand and lifted it a few times somewhere on the door, clicked, and the secret door slowly opened. "I've dug a tunnel here!" , Yue Gongzi reached out and took a lamp somewhere on the wall, lit the fire, and lit it.

The air in the dark passage is very good, there is no musty smell left by the lack of circulation, Yue Gongzi held the lamp, while leading the small fish forward, while explaining: "The tunnel here is already connected to the tunnel on the other side of Lan Kwai Fong, the Hou Mansion has been heavily guarded recently, I have dug the tunnel near the street behind the Hou Mansion, and when the Hou Mansion guards are a little lax, I can dig the tunnel near your yard." In the future, if there is an accident, you can also find out through the tunnel. It will be more convenient for us to communicate in the future!

Xiao Yu's eyes widened, obediently, this month's son is simply resolute in doing things! In just half a year, Yue Gongzi dug all the tunnels.

"Yue Gongzi, is there anything you don't know?" Xiao Yu asked Yue Gongzi angrily.

Unexpectedly, Yue Gongzi actually thought seriously for a moment, and then said solemnly: "Yes, give birth to a child!" ”

"Haha!" Xiao Yu didn't expect that Yue Gongzi, who had always been unsmiling, would also tell cold jokes, so he couldn't help laughing.

Yue Gongzi was quite puzzled by Xiao Yu's laughter, and looked at Xiao Yu inexplicably, Xiao Yu suddenly felt that Yue Gongzi was not so high, and occasionally connected to the ground, but more humane.

"Oh, Yue Gongzi, you look so good when you smile, you can smile more in the future, you can't spoil your delicate appearance!" Xiao Yu looked at Yue Gongzi, and for a while, he naughtily reached out and bent the corners of Yue Gongzi's lips upward.

Yue Gongzi's eyes became dark, he reached out and slowly grabbed Xiao Yu's hand that he hadn't had time to withdraw, looked at Xiao Yu and said slowly: "Since you like it, then I will smile more in the future!" Xiaoyu's heart was beating lively, she herself seemed to be startled by herself, hurriedly withdrew her hand from Yue Gongzi's hand, took a big step back, hung her head and stood aside, not daring to look at Yue Gongzi, for fear that she would indulge in Yue Gongzi's affectionate eyes when she saw it.

The atmosphere in the tunnel suddenly became ambiguous, Yue Gongzi held the lamp, motionless, the beating flame cast a mysterious shadow on his handsome facial features, and made him look like a fairy.
