Li Yingyue wanted to ask, but she felt that it was not appropriate, so she was silent for a few breaths, just nodded lightly, and said coldly: "I know." ”

Then he turned and walked away.

Fang Xiu glanced at her graceful back, retracted his gaze, reached out and touched the white tiger's head, and said casually: "When Lao Tzu is not at home, you have to take good care of the family and nursing home, do you know?" ”

The white tiger didn't know if he understood or not, he raised his eyes lazily, glanced at Fang Xiu, and then ran to the side and basked in the sun.

“.”

Seeing this, Fang Xiu was speechless for a while.

This thing can still be sold when it's small.,It's really useless when you grow up.。

It's useless, it's just a lot to eat.

The cost of a tiger is almost worth eight or nine people.

The meat eaten by eight or nine people may not be worth one of them!

Ay.

I knew it was a useless mascot, and when I got it, I might as well send it directly to the forest.

Give it freedom, and also add a little less trouble to the subordinates of the Fang Mansion.

It's a pity that it's already fed to such a big age, and if you send it to the forest, I'm afraid that it will starve to death in a few days.

In addition, it has been fed for more than two years, even if it is a useless waste, it has feelings, and I can't bear to kick it away.

"That's it, there is no shortage of this food in the house, since you have raised it, I will raise it for you until you are old."

Fang Xiu thought so and continued to browse the pieces sent by Zhou Guo.

These pieces were all sent from Jinnan Mansion 800 miles in an urgent manner.

Most of them already have Xie Qian's annotations.

All Fang Xiu had to do was to approve the red.

The so-called batch of red is to take the vermilion brush and put a tick on the piece.

It's a simple job, but it's important.

If there is no such hook, no matter how perfect Xie Qian's annotation is, it will not be effective.

Only after approving the red recitals can they be sent to the yamen of the six ministries and the nine secretaries and the state capitals for them to execute.

In other words, Fang Xiu has the final decision-making power.

Although the cabinet has great power, it is essentially only the secretary of Fang Xiu, the regent.

Now.

Fang Xiu founded the Great Cadre and the Great Zhou Council of Ministers, which is equivalent to saying that he doesn't even want the secretariat of the Cabinet.

From now on, all decisions will be made by the Council of Ministers.

The Cabinet returns to its original functions and deals with minor matters.

Of course, this plan will not be realized overnight.

The most important first step was to stabilize the interior of the Great Zhou Empire.

And Fang Xiu's plan to go to Jinnan this time is to personally go into battle and inspect the hundred officials of the Great Zhou, who can use it, who can't, who should be rectified, and which people should be directly dismissed.

In addition, it is to see if the strength of Bai Qi and the new army can cope with the unexpected situation in the Zhou State.

In fact, these things can be done by sending a messenger, but Fang Xiu thought about it, and still felt that it was safer for him to go in person.

It must be that whether the Great Zhou is stable or not involves the subsequent development of the imperial court, which is extremely important, and no one, Fang Xiu, can be completely trusted.

Stabilize the interior of the Great Zhou Empire, and then step by step turn Jinnan Mansion into the same existence as the capital, still retaining the six ministries and nine kings, but limiting their power.

When that time came, Fang Xiu would be equivalent to merging the Zhou State into Daqian at the lowest cost.

Provided, of course, that all goes well.

Thinking so, Fang Xiu picked up the brush and drew a hook on Xie Qian's annotation.

Time passes.

In the blink of an eye, it was five days later.

In front of the gate of the Prime Minister's House.

Five unremarkable-looking, but in fact very luxurious carriages were parked here.

Inside the house, somewhere in the courtyard.

Li Yingyue, who was wearing a long ink-colored dress, stood in place, her good-looking phoenix eyes looked at the delicate little maid Tao'er in front of her, and asked, "Have you thought about it?" ”

Tao'er nodded lightly and responded, "The slave has thought about it and stayed in Xiangguo Mansion." ”

When Li Yingyue heard this, she fell silent.

Tao'er thought for a while and said, "But if the slave maid has the opportunity, she will definitely go to Jinnan to see the lady, and the lady can't turn the slave out of the door at that time." ”

Li Yinyue originally wanted to say that she just went to Jinnan to ask the imperial brother whether the content of the letter was true, and then she would return to Jinnan, and after thinking about it, no one could say for sure what would happen in the future.

When she arrives in Jinnan, maybe she will be able to stay in her hometown.

Therefore, there is still silence.

Tao'er saw that Li Yingyue had not spoken, and thought that she was angry with herself, so she hurriedly said: "The slave and maid don't go to Jinnan with the lady, not because the slave and the maid don't want to follow the lady, let alone because the lady is not good enough, but because the slave's parents are still in Xiangguo Mansion."

Although the slave and maid have not read much, they also know that the sage once said that their parents are here, and they will not travel far."

Speaking of this, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed, as if she was far-fetched.

So he scratched his head and said with a red face: "Actually, the slave maid can't do without her parents, and the slave maid grew up in Xiangguo Mansion since she was a child, and Xiangguo Mansion is the slave's home. ”

When Li Yingyue heard the words "parents" and "home", her eyes showed a touch of trance.

For her, just a sleep, there are no parents and no home.

Even if she returned to Jinnan, for her, it was just a place where she grew up, nothing more.

That's it.

A complicated emotion surged in her heart, she looked at Tao'er for a while, nodded, and said, "Got it." ”

After saying that, he turned around and planned to leave.

Halfway through, he stopped again and turned his head to look at Tao'er.

Tao'er stood in place, looking at Li Yingyue in a daze, as if there were tears flashing in her eyes.

For Tao'er, Li Yinyue's two years in Xiangguofu have brought many waves to her ordinary life.

She also knew that Madame's coldness was only aimed at outsiders, and Madame was still very gentle with her own people.

To tell the truth, she was reluctant to leave Mrs. from the bottom of her heart.

For Li Yingyue, Taoer is one of the few warmth she has experienced in Chang'an in the past two years.

Even if there are some things, she has been hiding from herself, but as a subordinate, she can't help herself.

"I'm waiting for you in Jinnan."

Li Yingyue was silent for a few seconds, left this sentence, and turned to leave.

Separation is always sad.

This is especially true for those who have not experienced separation.

The little maid Tao'er looked at Li Yingyue's back, realizing that she would not be able to see her for a long time, and the sadness in her heart came up like spring water, and finally she couldn't help crying.

The other side.

Li Yingyue's mood is much better, she is not a sentimental person, not to mention that she has experienced such a big change before, but after a few seconds of sadness, she recovered her mood, walked out of Xiangguo's mansion, and came to the carriage.

Looking at the five identical carriages in front of her, her eyes showed a trance, and she didn't know which one she should get on for a while.

This time.

A familiar voice came from behind him.

"Sit in the middle one."

Li Yingyue subconsciously turned her head to look, and saw Fang Xiu, who was dressed in brocade clothes and a big hat, standing not far away, looking like a rich boy.

You sit in the middle car, this tone gives Li Yingyue a feeling that Fang Xiu is also going to take this batch of carriages.

As soon as she had this thought, she saw Fang Xiu step onto the second carriage, his movements were natural, as if she had been ready to step into the carriage for a long time.

"You"

Li Yingyue looked at him in a daze, a little confused.

Fang Xiu looked at her and said lightly: "Ben Xiang is also going to Jinnan, in order to save guards, you will go the same way as Ben." ”

The voice fell.

Li Yingyue was stunned.

She didn't expect that Fang Xiu would choose to leave for Jinnan just after the New Year.

Although, if everything goes well, it won't take a few days for the convoy to arrive in Jinnan.

However, when he left Chang'an at this time, he was not afraid of internal turmoil in Chang'an?

Even if he is deeply rooted in Chang'an and his henchmen are all over the place, what is the point of him going to Jinnan?

Is it for the matter of the Great Cadre and the Great Zhou Council of Ministers?

At this moment, many thoughts popped up in Li Yingyue's mind, and she was a little chaotic for a while.

No matter what Fang Xiu's purpose was in going to Jinnan.

One thing is certain now, that is, it will not be easy for her to break away from Fang Xiu's control!

A moment later.

Li Yinyue finally accepted the reality of walking with Fang Xiu, and walked to the carriage in the middle as he commanded.

It was at this time.

A crisp and pleasant voice came from behind him.

"Xiangye, the slave family is also going!"

After staying in Xiangguo's Mansion for two years, Li Yingyue is no stranger to this voice at all.

It is Fang Xiu's favorite concubine in the house, to be precise, she is currently just a personal little maid - Yang Yuhuan.

"It's not that you're a woman, it's inconvenient to follow."

Fang Xiu looked at Yang Yuhuan and said, "I'll come back and bring you local specialties, take you to visit the jewelry stores in the capital, and buy whatever you like." ”

When Li Yingyue heard this, she snorted coldly in her heart, and the other party's methods of coaxing the concubine were very disdainful.

"Don't!"

On the other side, Yang Yuhuan rarely rejected Fang Xiu once.

She walked briskly, came to the second carriage, and said softly: "Although the slave family is a daughter, she is also very capable, she can bring tea and water to Xiangye, and she can also beat Xiangye's back and pinch his legs. ”

Very capable, Fang Xiu admitted.

And, as she said, it's better to have a maid by her side to take care of it than to have some impersonal guards.

However, after a tiring journey, Fang Xiu was very worried that her old illness would recur, and she would be in trouble if she couldn't find Lang Zhong in the wilderness.

Fang Xiu was silent for a few seconds, but still said what he thought in his heart.

"This is the person who has led the troops to fight, not those who have fine skin and tender meat, and can't endure hardships, and they don't need someone to take care of them.

You should be for the sake of your own appearance, obediently stay in Xiangguo's mansion, obedient"

Yang Yuhuan didn't expect Xiang Ye to let him stay because he was worried about the recurrence of his old disease, and he was slightly stunned.

There was an indescribable emotion in his heart, his eyes became watery, and he said in a trembling voice: "Xiangye." ”

Side.

Li Yingyue looked at Fang Xiu, her eyes showed a hint of surprise, and she said in her heart: I didn't expect this Yang Yuhuan to be so important in his heart, making him so concerned. Or maybe it's just a means to coax the concubine.

"The slave's old illness hasn't recurred for a long time, and the slave thinks it should be related to that book, so Xiangye will let the slave and maid stay by his side and serve Xiangye."

Yang Yuhuan's watery eyes looked at Fang Xiu and said in a coquettish tone.

I have to say that the trick of the personal maid really works.

Even if you have a heart of steel, in the face of such a delicate and lovely girl, you can't help but feel your bones.

Fortunately, after the baptism of so many stunning beauties, Fang Xiu's willpower was quite firm, and as soon as he was about to say yes, he restrained the throbbing in his heart and remained silent.

Yang Yuhuan saw that Fang Xiu still didn't agree, so he had to release the last big move, and pouted: "Tell Xiangye the truth, not only does the slave and maid want to follow and serve Xiangye, but Your Majesty also wants to let the slave and maid follow, if Xiangye doesn't believe it, you can send someone to the palace to ask Your Majesty." ”

“?”

Fang Xiu's face was dazed, and he said in his heart, what does this have to do with the little empress.

"Xiangye, don't you understand, why did Your Majesty let the slave follow?"

Yang Yuhuan raised his eyebrows and asked the doubts in Fang Xiu's heart.

Fang Xiu didn't speak.

Immediately afterwards, I heard Yang Yuhuan explain: "Your Majesty said that you want the slave to take care of Xiangye, but in fact, you want the slave and maid to do eyeliner by Xiangye's side, if any fox spirit dares to seduce Xiangye, tell Your Majesty, and wait for Your Majesty to settle accounts after the autumn!" ”

When Fang Xiu heard this, he immediately understood, and subconsciously glanced at Li Yinyue.

Li Yingyue quickly understood the meaning of Yang Yuhuan's words, and was stunned at first, and then frowned slightly.

If it had been placed before, there was still a 1 in 10,000 chance that she would approach Fang Xiu.

However, now that she has been able to return to Jinnan, even if she forces her with a knife, she will never be willing to take a step closer to Fang Xiu!

Now.

Looking at Yang Yuhuan, who was squinting at herself, she wanted to say: "You and your Emperor Majesty are too worried, I don't look down on your family", but she always felt that saying this, there was a feeling that there were no three hundred taels of silver here.

So he just pretended not to care, turned around and got into the carriage.

"Xiangye, you just let the slave family follow, if the slave family's old disease really recurs, those quacks can't cure anything, and then you still have to let Xiangye save the slave family."

Yang Yuhuan took advantage of Fang Xiu's stunned kung fu to wrap his arms around him and shake them gently.

Feel the touch coming from your arm.

Fang Xiu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, sure enough, it was the eighteenth change of the female university.

Bigger and bigger.

I thought about it for a few seconds.

Fang Xiu finally decided to accede to her request.

It's not because the little empress wants her to follow.

It's just that Fang Xiu felt that if she really had a recurrence of her old disease, maybe she would really have to rely on the panacea in her own system mall.

"There may be all kinds of accidents on the road, no matter what happens, follow the side of the prime minister, and you are not allowed to run around, nor are you allowed to move."

Seeing Fang Xiu agree, Yang Yuhuan's delicate face showed joy, stretched out four fingers, and promised loudly: "The slave family must follow Xiangye closely and never run around!" ”

Fang Xiu lifted the curtain of the carriage, turned his head to look at her, and said helplessly, "Come in." ”

"Xiangye is the best!"

Yang Yuhuan said, happily getting into the carriage.
