Chapter XII

The whole Kyoto was immersed in an atmosphere of joy, and Xue Yu was not afraid or happy to be able to come back, but after coming back, it seemed that it was not the Kyoto it used to be.

Although Dong Yi was cultivating, his reward for him was sent into his mansion like flowing water, and the emperor rewarded him with the house closest to the palace, and expanded the original half outward, and now it is the largest mansion in the capital.

Dong Yi seized Kyoto and welcomed back the emperor, which was a great joy for the imperial court. The imperial court issued a holy decree that there would be no curfew for January. It was bustling outside.

At night, the fireworks exploded in the air, and Xue Yu's palace was illuminated, but now it was difficult for her to go out again.

Aunt Su said, "If Niangniang really wants to go out, why don't you tell the emperor, I think I will agree." "If Aunt Su hadn't taught her to go out in the past, but she had already seen it after experiencing so much over the years, even she was curious about what the situation was like outside.

Xue Yu was moved, but said, "Forget it, I'm at my age, and I'm just afraid of being laughed at if I am known." ”

Aunt Su shook her head with a smile, "Niangniang joked to herself, the maid is this age." ”

The two were talking, not wanting the emperor's attendants to come over.

"Meet the Queen Mother." The waiter bowed.

"Get up, Your Majesty asked you to come over, but is there something wrong?" Xue Yu said.

The waiter smiled and said, "Your Majesty said that the maid has been away from her hometown for many years, and she must miss the customs of this hometown, so she asked the maid to send clothes and a token to leave the palace." ”

Xue Yu didn't expect that the emperor would still take care of her heart, so she didn't shirk it, and said, "In this way, you thank Your Majesty for the mourning family." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty entrusted, if Niangniang goes out of the palace, she must bring guards and servants, and you must not take Aunt Su alone for the sake of cheapness, Your Majesty hopes that Niangniang will be careful."

"You go back to Your Majesty, the mourning family knows."

Xue Yu and Aunt Su changed their clothes, took the guards and attendants who had been waiting outside the palace gate, and got into a carriage and walked towards the palace gate.

On the way, Aunt Su asked Xue Yu if she wanted to go back and have a look, Xue Yu lifted the curtains, looked at the bright lights, lowered her eyes, thought about it and shook her head.

When Huo Ren entered Beijing, he burned down more than half of his family's house, and later he didn't know who lived in it, and then after Dong Yi entered Beijing, he rebuilt it and rewarded it to his subordinates.

When he arrived at the market, Xue Yu got out of the carriage, and the houses in front of him were still as they were before, not as lively as before, but the atmosphere of joy was indeed strong.

At the Kyoto market that year, the crowds were full of people, shoulder to shoulder, and the carriages were so blocked that they couldn't leave, and they needed to be dispatched by Jin Wuwei to guide them.

After experiencing Huo Ren's rebellion, Dong Yi seized Beijing, and Kyoto at this time was only afraid of the withering of talents, so it was such a scene.

The group walked and stopped, Xue Yu walked to a sugar water shop, the store was inconspicuous, the door was simple, but it had been operating in this area for many years, and this was brought by her grandfather.

It turned out to be a father and son who ran it, but at this time, I only saw the old man and a child, but I didn't see the young son. The old man's left foot was also lame, and he looked lonely.

Xue Yu entered, and the old man saw her dressed as a little lady, and a bunch of people were followed behind her, presumably not an ordinary family, so he bent down and said, "Does the little lady have any orders?" ”

"The store doesn't have to be like this, give each of us a bowl of rice balls."

When the leader of the guard saw that the shopkeeper called Niangniang, he said, "A few of us need to protect the safety of the lady, we can't eat, we just eat when we are done." ”

Aunt Su said with a smile, "The hard work of several guards is not only the intention of the lady, but also the acceptance of a few women." After saying that, he asked the shopkeeper for a few dollars, and after paying the money, he let the guards and attendants sit at a table.

When the store sent the dumplings, Xue Yu tasted one and said to the shopkeeper, "Shop, your dumplings still taste the same as before." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "The little lady used to come often." ”

"Yes, I often come with my grandfather."

As soon as he said this, the shopkeeper remembered and said with a smile, "I remember, the little lady often came with your grandfather at that time, and always asked for two bowls, but you are longer than before, and I can't remember it for a while, so I will give you another bowl without charge." ”

Xue Yu smiled and said, "The shopkeeper is so polite, I won't shirk it." ”

The shopkeeper brought a bowl of rice balls up, "Don't say goodbye, but I haven't seen you and your grandfather here for many years, I think I escaped from the war, and now I'm back." ”

Since the emperor returned to Beijing, Dong Yi issued an edict that all the houses and fields that had been taken away by Huo Ren and his ilk would be returned to their original owners, so that many families who had fled Kyoto due to Huo Ren's rebellion had returned. In addition, the children of the royal families can return to Beijing, and the official treatment is the same as before.

Xue Yu finished eating a bowl and asked, "Shopkeeper, why don't you see your son?" ”

Hearing Xue Yu ask, the shopkeeper said sadly, "My son is pitiful, Huo Ren's gang connived at his soldiers to rob and kill and rape when he entered Beijing, my poor daughter-in-law was ruined, and when my son came back, he happened to bump into it, and he was beaten to death, and my leg was also discounted. After speaking, the old man turned his back and wiped his eyes, "Dong Xiangguo killed that Huo Ren, but it is too painful." ”

When Xue Yu heard this, his face turned sad. She is also familiar with the shopkeeper's son, the father and son run this small shop for two days and nights to make a living, and they don't want to end up in such a scene, the white-haired person sends the black-haired person.

When leaving, Xue Yu asked Aunt Su to leave some more silver taels, but I was afraid that these stores were just a microcosm of many people in Kyoto.

Aunt Su was happy when she saw that her face was not as good as when she came out, "The girl is still thinking about the store?" ”

"Auntie, what kind of scene did you say if we hadn't escaped from Kyoto?" That Huo Ren originally said that he wanted to marry her as a concubine.

Aunt Su sighed, "I'm afraid it's not as good as this store." ”

Yongyang Hou's family of hundreds died under Huo Ren.

Lord Yongyang waited for the generation, but when he fled Kyoto that day, he refused to leave, not only did he not leave, but even his family servants were not allowed to escape.

After Huo Ren entered Beijing, he led people to raid the Yongyang Marquis Mansion, a family of several hundred, the men were directly killed, and the women were rewarded to his soldiers and let them do it.

Xue Yu was both frightened and angry when he heard about it, Yongyang Hou's granddaughter Wanyi was talented and outstanding, and she was afraid that she would not escape her doom.

Wanyi is the same age as her, and she used to play and party often, although she is not very familiar with it, but there are only so many girls in the family, and there are so many people who come and go.

It's a pity that Sister Wanyi was treated inhumanly at such a fancy age.

Xue Yu and his entourage stopped and went, but were stopped by the person in front of them, Xue Yu knew that he was the son born to Dong Yi's outer room.

I saw him bend down and salute, "Dong Yu has seen the little lady." "The tone smells of pollen.

Xue Yu ignored him and walked forward around him, but was stopped by him, and the guards behind him saw him like this, so they stepped forward, "Who are you who dare to stop my lady." ”
