Chapter 135 The benefits of Gu Dou, men's clothes go to Zhou Yi's banquet
When Hanyue woke up, she found that her robes were all open.
She was confused for a long time, and she fell asleep last night when she lay down tired, and she didn't remember Sikong Yan stirring her.
Why are all the garments open?
Turning his head to look at the pillow, it was empty.
Hanyue sat up with a swish.
The sky outside the window was bright, and Hanyue secretly screamed that it was not good.
As the king's concubine, she has to get up in the morning to change her clothes, and she was ridiculed by him for oversleeping a few times before, and this time she wants to be teased by him again.
"Someone." Hanyue called outside.
Several maids entered.
"Madame is awake."
"When did the king leave?"
"Three o'clock."
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
The maids snickered: "The king will not allow it." ”
Han Yue was stunned.
"The king saw that his wife was sleeping sweetly, so he didn't ask his wife to get up and serve." They smiled and stepped forward to serve Hanyue to change clothes.
"Madame is truly a blessed man, to be so favored by the king......"
Han Yue grimaced and listened to the compliments while letting them serve.
However, she was not complacent in her heart, because she knew that favor would not last long, and that she would become a useful person, so that even if she was not favored in the future, she would not be abandoned by him like an object, or given away.
Hanyue freshened up, and someone came in to say: "The housekeeper has arrived." ”
The steward was obviously much more respectful when he saw Han Yue this time, and he didn't even dare to glance at his eyes when he lowered his head.
"The king has prepared a carriage for his wife, which she can ride when she goes out in the future." The steward said, "In addition, the king has appointed five guards to his wife. ”
As he spoke, the steward gave him a slight high-five.
Five young men dressed as guards came in from outside the door.
The five of them stepped forward to salute Hanyue.
One of them said: "The king commanded that we will be Madame's people in the future, and we will be where Madame is, and if we lose Madame, the King will take our heads." ”
The gratitude that had just surged up in Hanyue's heart was instantly washed away by these words.
This is a sign of loyalty to her, it is clearly telling her that the king has made them keep an eye on her, and if she runs away, he will cut them.
Hanyue couldn't cry or laugh, this suspicious man, was so worried about her?
The steward was done and ready to retire.
Han Yue asked, "Does the king have an order to allow me to leave the house freely." ”
The steward bowed his head again and again, "Madame can come and go freely, but there are still bandits in the city these days, and I am afraid it is not safe." ”
Thinking of the day when she was almost taken away by the robbers, Han Yue shuddered.
Forget it, she doesn't want to be caught by Chengwu's people again, so it's better to avoid the limelight in the past few days.
Bored and stayed in the dormitory until the afternoon, Sikong Yanfei never showed up.
Han Yue knew that he had been unhappy in order to borrow troops, and he didn't have time to take care of her, so he found a few people who used to be in charge of the Sikong Yanfei caravan and inquired about the recent price of grain in the city.
Sure enough, as she expected, the price of grain in the city has been extremely stable recently, and in the eyes of the merchants, it is not profitable at all.
Someone saw Hanyue's idea of wanting to buy Gu Dou, and persuaded: "Even if you ship Gu Dou to other cities, you won't be able to earn a few price differences." ”
It is already autumn, how can the price of grain rise after the new grain comes down?
Han Yue smiled slightly, noncommittal.
No one would believe that the price of the beans would change during this season, only she knew that there had been a locust plague in her previous life.
It was the autumn harvest season, and within a few days, the insects were like all the grains that had been eaten, and there was not even a grain left in the field.
She secretly sent Tooth and other rangers to spread the news everywhere, saying that the price of grain beans would drop this year, and at the same time asked him to secretly collect grain.
What she has to do now is to quietly buy grain, then hoard it, and when the locust plague comes, she will sell it again to make a good price.
The crowd did not know what she thought, and they could not persuade her, so they could only shake their heads again and again, thinking that the king could hand over the business to a woman, which was a ridiculous idea.
As the twilight approached, Hanyue asked almost everything she wanted to know, so she sent them back.
At this time, the guard outside the door said: "The king has an order, please ask Mrs. Yue to go out of the mansion with him for a banquet." ”
Before Hanyue could react, the maids around her were already busy without touching the ground.
Han Yue frowned again and again when she looked at the new clothes they brought and those gorgeous ornaments.
She was already born with a bright color, and if she wears these again, she will suffer from it if she doesn't do it well.
"Take it and change into a man's robe." Hanyue ordered.
The maids were in great distress, and it was a great honor for the king to bring her to the feast, and any woman who heard the news would have been overjoyed, and had dressed herself beautifully.
But this Mrs. Yue is good, she actually made herself into a man's outfit, and deliberately covered her appearance.
Sikong Yan's carriage stopped at the gate of the mansion, and when he saw Han Yue, who was dressed in a black robe and had gray powder on his face, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows violently.
"Go get a basin of water." He said coldly.
The maid who served Hanyue on the side was so frightened that she almost collapsed to the ground, and hurriedly trotted away when she heard the order.
Sikong Yan pointed to the basin of clear water and looked at Han Yue, "Washed." ”
Han Yue was unwilling, but her arms couldn't twist her thighs, so she had to wash them honestly.
Sikong Yanfei looked at the little white face she revealed, and snorted unhappily.
When night comes, torches are lit in the streets.
In the carriage, Han Yue leaned close to Sikong Yanfei and looked out the window.
"What are you thinking?" Sikong Yan is quiet and secluded.
Hanyue turned her head and found that he had been closing his eyes to recuperate.
She couldn't understand how he could see what was on her mind.
"I'm thinking...... Will you get into trouble at the banquet for a while...... "Who doesn't want a beautiful woman, this is an era of fame, and any beauty is the goal of men."
"There's loneliness." Sikong Yan's eyes were closed, but his words seemed to have a soothing power, which made Hanyue's heart gradually settle down.
That's right, he's there.
Even if he was a little moody and liked to play tricks on her, he wouldn't do anything to betray her.
Han Yue leaned over to him and leaned her head on his shoulder in a flattering manner.
Sikong Yan didn't move, and he didn't even close his eyes, but a smile crossed the corner of his lips.
The carriage stopped outside a luxurious mansion.
"Where is this?" Han Yue looked at it curiously.
"Today, Zhou Yigong held a banquet to entertain merchants from various cities." Sikong Yanfei jumped out of the car first.
Hanyue cautiously poked her head out.
If it weren't for business, she really didn't want to see Zhou Yigong again.
At the beginning, he just coveted her beauty and bought her from Qin Zhengjing with his daughter, so she really didn't have a good impression of this person at all.
"Keep up." Sikong Yan snorted.
Hanyue cheered up and stepped forward to follow.
As soon as he entered the door, a loud voice broke the silence of the night: "King Danyang has arrived!" ”
