"I heard that Yan Shangshu's old illness has relapsed and he is recuperating at home, so he can't come to the early court these days."

"You don't know about this?"

"Listen to what you mean, what happened to Yan Shangshu?"

"I heard that Yan Shangshu accepted bribes, modified the evaluation results of officials without authorization, and influenced the use of people in the imperial court, and the emperor sent people to strictly investigate and interrogate, this matter was carried out in secret, and it was not publicized, in order to be able to dig out more participants, and only said to the outside world that Yan Shangshu's old illness had relapsed and was recuperating at home."

"Since this is going on in secret, how do you know about it?"

"There is no impermeable wall in the world, since Yan Shangshu has done such a thing, naturally some people will know, and now Yan Shangshu is sick but no one is allowed to visit, it is inevitable that people will not guess."

"There's some truth to that......"

"I heard that Yan Shangshu was so bold that he went to the emperor to impeach His Royal Highness for being cruel and immoral, and beat Concubine Yan badly, intending to let the emperor make the decision and let the prince and Concubine Yan reconcile."

"Tsk, this Concubine Yan is restless, she makes trouble everywhere, no matter who she marries, I'm afraid it's unbearable, and I can't bear it anymore if I want to come to His Royal Highness, so let's teach a lesson or two."

"But then again, if the emperor wants to move the Yan family, is it related to Yan Shangshu's desire to draw a line with His Royal Highness?"

"The matter of forming a party for personal gain was not recognized by the emperor, but such a traitor seeking glory and a two-faced person would not like to come to the emperor."

"Your Royal Highness is not good in a thousand ways, in the end, it is the emperor, and he is a dignified prince, and he is calculated by one of your courtiers......"

"This Yan Shangshu is really smart."

"It's too calculating, after all, the eagle was pecked by the eagle."

"Holy thoughts, I think it's better not to speculate too much, and do your own thing with peace of mind, so that you can keep safe."

"Exactly......

These are the words of several waves of people talking separately, although the voice is extremely low, but He Yanxiu's ears are very good, but he can also hear it clearly.

Qin Peiyou said in a low voice, "The Yan family is like this, and it can be regarded as self-inflicted. ”

"Hmm." He Yanxiu nodded.

"I just don't know, who will be next?" Qin Peiyou smiled slightly.

"There are not a few people who think carefully in the court, and there are a few people whose hearts can be punished, and the emperor is also willing to clear the obstacles for you right now, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can also take the opportunity to follow and learn."

Whether it is to govern the country, to rectify the governance of officials, or even how to carry out the removal of acne, it is an unspeakable thing that can be understood, and it needs to be carefully observed, carefully figured out, and then form its own style.

Qin Peiyou understood what He Yanxiu meant and nodded.

"The emperor has arrived!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live......"

----

In August, the morning and evening days bring a little coolness.

Su Yujin has been a little busy these days.

First, I went to the orchard on the outskirts of Beijing to pick some early-ripening apples, pears, and autumn peaches, and then went to the farms adjacent to Qinghe in the suburbs of Beijing to dig up some fresh peanuts, picked some edamame beans that were still green at this time, caught a few long fat ducks, and bought some various seasonings in the shop of Zhouji in Beijing.

After returning home, Su Yujin plunged into the kitchen.

Baked apple chips, stewed duck pears with rock sugar and white fungus, and canned autumn peaches......

Boil spiced peanuts and spiced edamame to make braised duck feet, braised duck neck, braised duck rack......

So much so that in recent days, the entire Su family house has been filled with a mixture of spicy and fresh aroma and sweet and sour taste.

But soon, there was a rich sweet smell wafting in the sky above the Su family's mansion.

Approaching August 15, mooncakes are indispensable.

Su Yujin did many kinds this time.

Red bean paste filling, mung bean paste filling, salted egg yolk, jujube paste, lotus paste, rose, osmanthus ......

Mooncake crusts are also varied.

Ice-skinned, puff-pastry, pulp-paste, sugar-mixed skin......

These different skins and different fillings are combined separately, and then combined with various moon cake molds, the moon cakes made by Su Yujin are piled up as high as a hill.

Su Yujin showed his skills here, and the Lu family and Su Yunruo were not idle, and they also did a few things.

Luonan Mansion is close to Sudi, and the moon cakes are also Suzhou-style puff pastry moon cakes, and Lu Shi and Su Yunruo made moon cakes such as pine nut and jujube paste filling, ham and fruit filling, lard and gaza filling, and fresh meat filling.

This mooncake is made, in addition to eating it yourself, it is used when visiting relatives and friends.

Su Yujin made some of his own work, combined with some of what Lu Shi and Su Yunruo had done, and sent some out one by one.

First of all, the He family, for Mrs. He and Mrs. He, then for the palace to honor the concubine and the fifth princess, and then the Lu family......

At this moment, Su Yujin was taking a carriage to An Guogong Zhen's house.

Zhen Yue has been to her grandfather's house since she saw that her cousins and cousins were all working hard to go to school, and the older she was, the more sensible she became, so she took the initiative to follow her master to study all kinds of schoolwork seriously.

And Zhen Yue is a lively and cheerful extrovert, and he is really bored with several masters in the family alone, so An Guogong simply greeted the emperor and sent Zhen Yue to the palace to study and attend classes with several princesses of the same age.

Because of this, Zhen Yue has been in the palace for a long time, and he is not often in the Zhen family.

Su Yujin arrived at the Anguo Mansion, and the concierge invited him in after a while.

"Yujin is here." An Guogong stroked the beard on his chin and greeted warmly, "I just came, I'm drinking tea alone and it's boring, but someone can chat with me." ”

"What about Yan Xiu? Didn't come with you today? ”

"He's been busy with household affairs lately, so he can't be free." Su Yujin replied with a smile, "I probably know that your father-in-law is boring to drink tea, so I happened to send some refreshments at this time?" ”

While laughing, Su Yujin opened the food box he brought.

In addition to the delicate and delicious mooncakes, Su Yujin also prepared some additional snacks such as duck lo-mei and other snacks.

An Guogong had also tasted Su Yujin's craftsmanship before, and when he looked at these things at this time, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, "Let's just say that Yujin is the most filial, and I still think about my daily snacks." ”

While speaking, An Guogong couldn't wait to take a few and taste them.

While eating, he said, "These are the tastes that Yue'er likes, so I'll leave them for now, and I'll eat them all when I drink later." ”

"And the father-in-law ate with an open stomach, and if it was not enough, there would be more." Su Yujin pursed her lips and smiled, "I entered the palace a few days ago, although I didn't see Yue'er, but I also asked Concubine Shu and the fifth princess to help bring food over, and I guess Yue'er is also eating at this time." ”

"You are still careful, thoughtful, and thinking about Yue'er." An Guogong sighed, looking at Su Yujin's gaze became more and more complicated.
