After Chen Yuanhou was beaten more than a dozen times, she never gave up her plan to let them enter the Chen Mansion, and in the end, she really couldn't stand it, and couldn't help it, comforting Chu Shiyu, in fact, there was nothing bad about going in.

He wondered why she had such an idea, and said something that made her angry.

He said, do you want to be the concubine of the Chen Mansion?

was so angry that Lu Tang kicked him fiercely and didn't say a word to him for several days.

He still sent delicious food for several days, and she reluctantly forgave him after apologizing countless times.

When she looked at him begging for mercy in a low voice, she would be at a loss for a while, she knew that his identity was the ancestor, but she only saw his cold record in the annals of history, and now in front of her was a person of flesh and blood and feelings.

Chu Shiyu touched his face and looked at her with some confusion, "Is there something on my face?" ”

She shook her head, suddenly losing interest in eating, "No." ”

"And what are you watching me all the time?"

"Because you're good-looking."

"Really?"

He was clearly unconvinced.

Lu Tang didn't bother to explain.

In this way, they lived together in Chen's mansion, and unlike Chen Yuanhou's prodigal son, he did not have a wife or concubine in his mansion, not even a room.

Facing Lu Tang's strange eyes, Chen Yuanhou bowed his head a little embarrassed, "I have someone I like." ”

There was a fluctuation of killing intent behind him, which frightened Chen Yuanhou and hurriedly explained, "But she got married a few years ago, so I don't want to marry a wife." ”

"Then you can't marry someone else?" Lu Tang was a little strange.

Because Chen Yuanhou in history seems to have three children.

"I won't marry!" Chen Yuanhou said very backbonely, "My father and mother forced me with a stick, and I won't marry!" ”

So he was "exiled" to Guanyang.

Lu Tang turned her head to look at Chu Shiyu again, with a sourness in her eyes that she didn't even know, "What about you?" ”

Chu Shiyu pillowed his head, as always, out of tune, "Life is short, it's right to have fun in time." ”

"Isn't that what you said?" His expression was quite innocent.

Lu Tang: "......"

Chen Yuanhou quietly watched the exchange between them, and the more he watched, the more interesting he felt.

And after such a peaceful day for less than a month, Lu Tang suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the house began to be solemn, and the two who were not very good at dealing with each other spent more time together at this time.

At the same time, Lu Tang also found that the people who went out to buy in the house brought back more and more things day by day, but the number of people became less and less day by day.

Finally one day, she called out to the two people who were talking in the courtyard, and the maid in the back brought the food.

When Chen Yuanhou saw that there were only three dishes, his face suddenly changed, "What's the matter!" It used to be all eight dishes! ”

The maid was frightened and immediately knelt down.

He was angry that the people in the house had withheld the food, and when he was about to get angry, Lu Tang spoke, "I did it." ”

The meals were made by her.

Chen Yuanhou's expression changed, and his attitude instantly turned one hundred and eighty degrees, "If you said it earlier, I said that today's food is extraordinarily fragrant." Well, it smells so good! ”

Lu Tang: "......"

She lifted the little girl up and let her go down first.

After setting up the dishes and chopsticks, she turned her head to look at Chu Shiyu, who was looking at him, and said, "Don't you have anything to tell me?" ”

Chu Shiyu pinched his eyebrows, a little impetuous, "You know everything?" ”

Lu Tang nodded.

She's not stupid, can't she go out and understand these things for herself?

There are so many things in the house at once, which everyone has to suspect, not to mention that there are many fewer people all of a sudden, in addition to the guards who are still raised outside.

She guessed a little, but she wasn't quite sure.

So didn't you cook a meal today and come over to find out?

Chu Shiyu was about to open his mouth to tell her, when suddenly a sinister person appeared and cut off what he wanted to say, "Oh, I'll just say it, Mrs. Yu is really smart." As he spoke, his expression became solemn, "Don't hide it from Madame, it seems that our Guanyang is about to have a famine." ”

Chu Shiyu looked at him coldly, and his fist-clenched hand showed his mood at this time.

Chen Yuanhou was immediately silenced, and stretched out his hand again and again: You come, you come.

"Famine?" Lu Tang looked back at him, as if he was confirming with him.

Chu Shiyu nodded, "That's right." ”

I thought she would be surprised to say something, but she was uncharacteristically calm, "Is that because we won't have anything to eat in a while?" ”

Chu Shiyu pursed his lips.

Chen Yuanhou interjected, "It seems like this." ”

Facing Shang Chu Shiyu's gaze of wanting to kill, he was instantly stunned.

Chen Yuanhou: You come, you come.

Chu Shiyu wrinkled her eyebrows, her expression was serious that she had never seen before, "Now that the outside of the city is blocked by refugees, things from outside can't be sent in, and the shops in the city will only consume." ”

That's not the way to do it at all!

The grain shops have been looted like crazy, and the people who buy vegetables on the streets are gone, and even more people have gone to steal other people's vegetables, and there are no more ripe ones.

Lu Tang was a little surprised, "How could it be?" ”

"How many refugees are out there?"

Usually, if it is less, it is not enough to close the city gates.

Chen Yuanhou closed his eyes and spit out a number with great difficulty, "It is estimated that there are about 50,000 people." ”

"So much!"

She had seen the famine described in the book, but she did not expect that there would be so many refugees outside the city, and if they were allowed to enter the city...... The consequences are absolutely unimaginable.

Chen Yuanhou scratched his hair irritably, and even Chu Shiyu, who had always been indifferent, rarely made a face, "Not only that, if Guan Yang doesn't get support, I'm afraid that we will also become refugees like them." ”

This is what Chen Yuanhou is most worried about.

People are desperate to the extreme, and the explosive power in their bodies is enough to destroy.

Chu Shiyu, who had been silent, also spoke, "Emperor Yuan was tyrannical, defeated another city, and drove away the people in the city, which made them exile to Guanyang." ”

"Bump!"

As soon as he exerted his strength, a corner of the stone table was instantly missing.

Lu Tang: "......"

Chen Yuanhou: "......"

Looking at his exaggerated explosiveness, both of them couldn't help but sigh.

"Childe! Son! ”

A gray-shirted guy ran in.

"What are you doing?" Chen Yuanhou looked at the visitor with a dissatisfied face, and saw that he was disgusted by his stumbling running posture, and turned his head to Lu Tang and said, "This person has to be driven away." ”

This frizzy little guy doesn't fit his identity at all!

Lu Tang didn't speak, her eyes were always on Chu Shiyu, and at this time, seeing a layer of killing intent floating on him, she hurriedly held him down, "Don't think about it, assassination won't work at all." ”

They have a very tacit understanding with each other, and they can know what each other is thinking just by looking at each other.

Lowering his eyes and glancing at her small and slender hand, Chu Shiyu was really appeased, swallowed the killing intent in his heart, and asked, "Then what do you say?" ”

Lu Tang looked at him with a strange face, uprising, big brother, you will be the founding emperor of Zhao in the future, what do you want me to do?

Chu Shiyu obviously didn't notice her expectant gaze.

Because the attention of the two was quickly attracted by the gray-shirted little guy—

"Childe, the people outside have already started to knock on the door! The lord of the city asked me to tell you that tonight could be dangerous. ”

Chen Yuanhou had a cold face, "This is what the city lord means?" ”

"Yes, Childe, the city lord asked you to bring someone to support."

"Okay."

The last word fell, and Chen Yuanhou suddenly smiled.

"Sure enough, it's all he can do."

They didn't ask what was going on, Chen Yuanhou was in a really bad state, and he didn't even eat much.

Lu Tang felt that it was a pity to pour, and they would soon run out of food, so they could save a little.

After the meal, Lu Tang made his request to him, "Can you go out for a walk with me?" ”

Chu Shiyu nodded.

The moment he stepped out of Chen's Mansion, Lu Tang looked at the looted street, and couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect it." ”

Chu Shiyu thought she was going to be hurt, but when she was about to comfort her, what she said was-

"You say, can I get the money I gave back to the shopkeeper?"

Chu Shiyu: "......"

He couldn't help but rub her head, thinking she was in the Arabian Nights, "Dream you." ”

Lu Tang muttered dissatisfiedly, "Why use my mantra." ”

The voice was too small for him to hear, but looked around at the empty street, "Mianmian, if I do something that will make you sad, how long will it take for you to forgive me?" ”

She was slightly stunned.

In fact, he doesn't often call her by her nickname, so he will feel uncomfortable.

Every time she called her by her nickname, she was on the way to apologize.

Lu Tang stopped, turned his head to look at him, and his expression was very serious, "You want to tell me that you will also go tonight, right?" ”

Chu Shiyu did not deny it.

"I'm not mad at you." She seemed to laugh a little, "If someone hurts you, and I don't allow you to fight back and you get hurt, then I'm going to be unhappy." ”

"So, you have to protect yourself well, and you must not get hurt."

She smiled softly at him, her smile full of encouragement, and her eyes sparkling like bright stars.

Chu Shiyu also nodded and promised her, "Okay." ”

They walked to the side of the river, midsummer fell, and the lotus flowers in the pond were already budding, but unfortunately no one was in the mood to enjoy it now, but Lu Tang was full of interest, "Hurry up, let's go pick lotus seeds, lotus roots." ”

She didn't know if there would be lotus roots, but the lotus leaves could be eaten.

Chu Shiyu went to rent a boat according to her, and the boatman saw that they were wearing expensive brocade robes, and after a few instructions to pay attention to safety, he sat aside, and did not seem to care what they were going to do.

The ancients were not interested in these lotus seeds, but Lu Tang, who came from modern times, was full of interest in these, she knew that these could be made into dishes, and she was very excited about it.

Chu Shiyu didn't understand her excitement, but he knew that following her would make her happy.

Lu Tang said to him very energetically, "Ah Ji, after I go back, I will cook, just leave one in the back kitchen for me to do chores and make a fire." ”

"No way!" Chu Shiyu refused without thinking about it.

"Why?" Lu Tang looked at him with a strange expression.

Chu Shiyu coughed uncomfortably, "You are a young lady, and you are not a maid, how can you do these rough jobs?" ”

"I'm not Miss Fuchu anymore."

Her expression was a little lonely, "Everyone else calls me 'Miss Three', but I know that they still look down on me in their hearts, and the only person who entrusts me in applause and carefully protects my pride is you." ”

Her father is a corrupt official, and those sycophants don't really please her at all, they just want to rely on her to pass on the news.

And the only one who will really treat her as an eldest lady is Chu Shiyu.

Only this one who rescued her from the water.

Chu Shiyu patted her back soothingly, very distressed, "Don't be sad, whoever dares to be presumptuous to you, I will kill whoever is presumptuous!" ”

Lu Tang's originally melancholy mood suddenly cleared up, and he patted him with a smile, "Don't make trouble, let's pick it quickly." ”

"Hmm." Chu Shiyu nodded solemnly, remembered something again, and coerced her, "Don't even think about cooking." ”

"As long as I'm not dead, you're still a young lady who doesn't touch the sun."

"Don't."

"Tsk."

For a whole afternoon, Lu Tang and he soaked in this lotus pond, and countless lotus flowers, lotus flowers, lotus leaves, and lotus roots in the mud were tied up by them with ropes.

Lu Tang asked him to tie the lotus root belt inside and wrap it with flowers and lotus leaves, so that no one would find out.

Chu Shiyu lost his temper when he was called, "Miss is really welcome." ”

Lu Tang blushed a little when he said it, saying that he was busy all afternoon, but in fact he was the only one who was busy, as if now he was all stuck with mud, and she was clean and still the dazzling pearl.

"I'm sorry."

She smiled flatteringly at him and took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat.

Chu Shiyu suddenly lost his temper.

After the two left, the boatman looked at the lotus leaves and lotus flowers behind Chu Shiyu and looked puzzled: What are these two people doing when they pick flowers and go back?

When the disaster is over, are you still in the mood to write some poetry and love songs?

When Chu Shiyu walked down the street with such a large number of things on his back, no one did not cast a surprised look.

At first, he felt ashamed, but along the way, his endurance grew.

Until—

"Sister, sister!"

A familiar and somewhat immature voice came from behind.

Lu Tang turned around and saw that it was the child who ran away that day, "It's you, Yuanxi." ”

Yuanxi looked up with a small face, he hadn't seen him for a month, and he had lost some weight.

"Sister, your things have dropped."

He was holding a lotus pod in his hand.

Lu Tang smiled, took the lotus pod and pulled it open, and in the equally surprised eyes of the two, peeled off one of them and gave it to Yuanxi.

The little guy didn't dare to eat it, and looked at the white and chubby lotus seed in his hand with some flattery, "Yes, is it for me?" ”

Lu Tang nodded, peeled off one and was about to put it in his mouth, but a burning gaze made her unable to put it in at all, and turned her head and immediately stuffed it into Chu Shiyu's mouth.

Chu Shiyu snorted coldly, as if to say: You know each other.

Lu Tang: "......"

Yuan Xi blinked his dark eyes swirling on him, innocent and harmless.

Lu Tang didn't notice his movements just now, just when he had already eaten, he could rub his head without squatting down this time.

The little guy is growing his body, and he eats well and nods quickly.

"Where are you going?" She asked.

The harmless child in front of her really made her think that she would become a ruthless young general in the future.

And the side he stands on is always Chu Shiyu.

Blame her for not being simple-minded, at first she just wanted to help him when she didn't know his identity, but now that she knows his identity, she wants to ......

Help a bunch of Chu Shiyu.

Yuan Xi tilted his head, just right to reveal his immature face, "I don't know." He was a little confused in his eyes, "A-Niang has passed away, I ......"

He hung his head, his little face flushed.

Lu Tang immediately felt distressed, and couldn't bear to ask anymore, "Then do you have nowhere to go?" ”

Yuan Xi lowered his head and looked at his toes, like a little beast afraid of being abandoned, "It's okay, I can do it myself." ”

Ouch, she couldn't stand a little guy saying this in front of her, so she turned her head and asked Chu Shiyu, "Do you think it's okay for me to take him back?" ”

When Yuanxi heard her words, he was shocked and almost laughed, but he endured it very well, and performed the innocent little beast who died and was tragically abandoned.

Chu Shiyu glanced at him, the child was really pitiful.

He knew that Lu Tang had always been kind, and he also knew that she was accumulating virtue.

I just don't know why she wants to accumulate virtue.

He didn't care, "You can bring it back if you want." ”

The child below raised a pair of teary-eyed faces, and said happily but apprehensively, "Really? ”

Lu Tang glanced at him, then nodded at Yuanxi, "Really." ”

"Can I stay with my sister?"

Lu Tang was also in a good mood, "Hmm." ”

Yuan Xi smiled innocently - that sister, we have to stay together forever.
