After the princess regent's flower-viewing banquet, the most eye-popping news in Xuzhou City was that the Lu family in the south of the city on the rich side was sent by the regent to the door and checked the bottom of the matter.

More than a dozen provincial right guards, together with the tax collectors, visited the township, measured the acres of land, and divided half of the hidden taxes according to the clear law to reward the villagers who exposed them. However, after three or five days, the accounts of the Lu family were checked, and the Taishou Mansion vigorously and resolutely convicted the crime, ordering the recovery of tax arrears, and the main culprits Lu Bin, Lu Yu and others paraded through the streets, and beat them in public at the gate of the city to set an example.

When they were parading the streets, Gu Yufu and Yang Shao sat on top of the teahouse in the south of the city and saw the situation conclusively.

"Brother Shao, you're going to offend people again this time." Yu Fu looked downstairs, Tang Xinci was holding the prisoner car with her, sharing the honor and disgrace with her detained husband, wearing a black gold cloud embroidered shirt, smashed by rotten vegetables and stinky leaves.

"What are you afraid of, there are more people I have offended than the mountains outside Xuzhou City." Yang Shao also squinted and looked downstairs, "Tang Shengzong is an old fox who sees the wind and steers the rudder, and his niece is affectionate and righteous. ”

"You're not afraid of me, your unruly temperament is both good and bad." Yu Fu looked up at him, "The edge is too revealing to calm the situation, but I'm really afraid of you, and you will be retaliated against by too many people." ”

"Then, preemptively don't give them a chance." Yang Shao's eyes slightly picked up and took a sip of spring tea, "If you talk about fighting openly and secretly, your brother Shao is also a good player." ”

"Look what you can!" Yufu had no choice but to laugh.

Safe and smooth, Qin Se and Ming, Yang Shao was busy with tax reform in Xuzhou on the one hand, and on the other hand, he arranged for the front line to reorganize the prisoners, and he had to approve and read the letter, and urged Zhang Yizhou to accompany Shen Yanzong to worship the first king for him, and the whole person was busy like a spinning top, and he couldn't be idle for a moment.

But Yu Fu is by his side every day, and the days of longing for sleep have become vivid, Yang Shao has a lot of opportunities during the day, and has a taste at night, and he only hates that the days go too fast for a while.

In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of May, and the news finally came from Huainan Right Guard, and the source of the leak to Fu Xinmi was initially locked.

An unexpected person.

Yang Shao read the secret letter, but he was not in a hurry to go back. The rainy season had arrived, and the flood season was just around the corner, so he took people to check the construction of the embankment outside the city.

Gu Yufu has been taking care of orphans in the Salesian Bureau in the city in the past few days.

In the troubled world, it is the most innocent children who are hurt the most. In the big courtyard of blue bricks and small tiles, there was a commotion and coaxed more than 100 children, the small ones were still in infancy, and the big ones were more than the age of Shao, all of them had no father and no mother, if it were not for the Ming Court's appropriation to resettle, they were afraid that they would have been frozen and starved on the side of the road, and became a small corpse that no one cared about.

In the afternoon, the hussar guard's escort was left in the ear room by Yufu, and she found a corner by herself, and together with Tan Yuru and the others, she could tailor the children, so that they could bring back the size to make some summer clothes.

"How old are you? He's not short. ”

"Five!"

"What about you?"

"I'm six years old, and when I'm a little older, I can help with the work."

"Princess, let us do these things, how can you condescend to your dignity." The old caretaker of the Salesian Bureau was kind and kind-eyed, and he didn't want to go away. She had long heard that the princess regent was brave, resourceful, and kind-hearted, but she never thought that Yufu would be so approachable.

"Sister Yufu, she just can't be idle, and when she has a little time, she is busy taking care of everyone." Tan Yuru was next to her, smiling while measuring the size.

Guan Jingzhai was also there, sitting in the corner without saying a word, looking at this side and smiling. Her right hand is completely useless, and now she can no longer hold the leather whip, so she can only help with some chores.

"Why don't you come?" Gu Yufu looked at the corner, a child with unkempt hair, and asked with a smile.

The boy hesitated, grabbed a note, and approached to give it to her.

Yu Fu was stunned for a moment, opened the piece of paper, and there was only a short sentence on it:

"Come to Yiqing alone, see you or leave, frost leaf guest."

Unexpectedly, I would see the familiar handwriting here, simple and clean more than a dozen words, but Gu Yufu felt that her breathing was sluggish for a while, and her heart was beating like a drum in her cavity: "This note!" Where did it come from? ”

"I was playing outside the back door just now, and an uncle told me to bring it in." The child timidly asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”

Yu Fu woke up suddenly, and immediately threw down the things in her hand and went straight to the back door, she looked around, but she didn't see the expected figure.

"Sister Yufu, what are you doing?" Tan Yuru and the two hussars chased out.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Gu Yufu was so confused that she immediately stuffed the note into her sleeve, "I just read it wrong, I thought it was ......"

"Sister Yufu?" Tan Yuru couldn't help but worry when she saw that her expression was different.

Gu Yufu tried to calm down, and said with a slight smile: "It's really nothing, it's just a mistake." ”

Tan Yuru couldn't ask questions, so she had to follow her back to the garden.

Gu Yufu was very worried, and until she went back to Taishou Mansion, she talked a lot less, and she was not as happy as when she came.

In the evening, when Yang Shao came back from outside, he saw Yu Fu sitting in front of a table of food in a daze.

Seeing that Yu Fu didn't even notice that he had returned, he simply quietly walked around behind her and suddenly stretched out his hand to blindfold her.

"Ahh Yu Fu screamed softly in fright, and Yang Shaocai smiled and hugged her from behind: "What are you thinking about when the beauty sits alone in the world?" ”

"Yang Shao! How old are you? Gu Yufu turned her head and glared at him, Yang Shao's face was comparable to the city wall, and the golden knife horse sat down and said: "Not old or young, it is a good age to be able to call Mrs. Shengsong every night." ”

The hand handing the chopsticks froze, and Yu Fu couldn't wait to knock him.

After making trouble, Yang Shao looked at the seven or eight dishes on the table, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What is a good day today?" It's a bit unbearable. ”

Recently, Gu Yufu has been cooking by herself, only three or four home-cooked dishes a day, which is simple but the taste of her hometown.

"Today is Lord Lu Yuanzhong's birthday." Yu Fu stood up and poured wine for him with a silver pot, "My father has asked me and my brother since I was a child not to forget our loyalty and goodness, and to take Lu Gong as a model for all generations, and his birthday should be commemorated." ”

"It wasn't for me." Yang Shao's voice was stained with some resentment, "I thought you were distressed that Brother Shao went to the embankment to work hard today." ”

Yufu wine pot for a meal: "You went to the embankment today, how did you look?" ”

"Although Fu Huairen didn't dare to cause trouble, he was really diligent, and the embankment was repaired very well, no wonder Zhang Yizhou recommended him." Yang Shao pinched the cup, raised his head and drank the wine.

Yu Fu nodded, then buried herself in eating again, and didn't say anything.

What's going on? Yang Shao saw that she was too lazy to take care of herself, and the wine was gone, so she remembered a little interesting story, and couldn't help but play a trick and say to Fu: "The embankment is well repaired, but I encountered a strange thing on the embankment today." ”

"Wonders? What a miracle. Yu Fu was stunned and raised her head from the silence.

"There was a soldier who climbed on a tree and was arrested by Zhao Yunqing as an assassin." Yang Shao smiled, "After taking him down, guess what he said?" ”

"How?" Yu Fu was interested in asking.

"He heard that the regent came to Chadi today, and he wanted to see what I looked like, whether I was three heads and six arms, or a god, Buddha and Bodhisattva." Yang Shao sat closer as he spoke, as if he was a little aggrieved, "Others want to see me in a different way, it's good for you, I'm a big living person in front of me, Fu'er is too lazy to pay attention." ”

"Climb trees, we've climbed before." Hearing Yang Shao's words, Gu Yufu made a ghost and said, "My brother... At the time, they laughed at me. ”

"I remember climbing trees, too." Yang Shao was in a trance, as if the scene from more than ten years ago was in front of him, "You love to watch dramas, you can't squeeze in front when you go late, it's not enough to ride on my shoulder, I have to hold you up to climb the tree." As a result, it started to rain halfway through the sight, and you couldn't get it from the trees for a while......"

Yang Shao recalled the past, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise: "I still remember that when I arrived at your door, your brother said: 'Two chickens in soup, a pair of goose with stupid heads. ’”

"Although my brother always said that he was going to break your leg, he always helped hide it from my father." Yu Fu thought of the note in the afternoon again, sadness condensed between her eyebrows, the world is like flowing water, and it is a dream.

"If you break my leg, Gu Yufeng is not material for martial arts!" Yang Shaozheng said on the head of Xing, "A set of internal Yixing boxing, I haven't seen any progress after practicing for several years, and I am a defeated general every day." That's not because of me, in order to please my brother-in-law, I find my way to lose to him every time. You can't be too fast, you have to lose like that. ”

"How good the time used to be......" Yu Fu's expression darkened unconsciously, "I don't know how my father and mother are doing recently." ”

Yang Shao had no intention of arousing her sadness, and hurriedly softened his tone and comforted: "Taishan, they are settled in Jinling Screw Turning Alley, everything is fine." Don't worry, there are my spies in Jinling City, and I go to see them every month. ”

"Don't worry, I know you're all right and will take care of them." Yu Fu stepped forward and hugged Yang Shao's waist and buried her head in his arms, "I said that I would accompany you, and I won't leave you alone, I can't bear it." ”

"Fu'er......" Yang Shao ran her hair, and a burst of warmth rippled in her heart. She is his wife, his only relative in the world, she reluctantly left her beloved parents, just to accompany him, so that he can also have the warmth of a home in this cruel world.

"Eat the vegetables first, the dishes are cold." Yu Fu snorted, "After eating, you have to accompany me to incense Lord Lu, my father used to be Lu Gong's guard, he said that as long as we don't forget the old master, Lu Gong will always stay in the world." ”

"Okay, I'll accompany you, I already knew about this, and Gu Yufeng also told me." Yang Shao said softly, "Duke Lu can have a loyal and courageous protector like your father, and he will live in vain." ”

"Also, I won't go to the Salesian Bureau tomorrow, and I want to go shopping on the streets." Yu Fu said as he grabbed a piece of chopsticks and fish belly meat for him.

Yang Shao used chopsticks to pluck and picked the best piece of live meat next to the fish's eyes to her: "Why don't I accompany you?" ”

"No, every time you go to the street, you can scare the shopkeeper half to death, just go quietly with Ah Jing." Yufu immediately refused.

"What about Yuru? What about Jiang Youhe? Yang Shao asked, "I'm not at ease." ”

"They ......," Yu Fu thought for a moment, "I plan to arrange for them to go out together tomorrow." Did you know that they ...... Well, I'm trying to make a good deal. ”

"Either way, you'll have to take two guards with you." Yang Shao lifted his lips and smiled, "I didn't expect Mrs. Yue Lao to do a good job, you are the right person for this red line." ”
