In the early morning, the fog is like smoke, and among the grass and trees, there is a frost like moonlight, with a faint coldness.

When the red sun rose from the sky, the light coldness not only did not dissipate, but became more and more intense.

In winter, that's it.

The sun came out, and the light red sunlight fell softly, without the scorching heat of the summer sun, and it was warm under such sunshine, and there was a sense of drowsiness.

In the White Jade Pavilion.

The trivial and shallow light and shadow shone in, and Yu Yunlan's plain white dress seemed to be flashing, and the whole person was beautiful.

Fang Rui was playing chess with her, talking about the Tao and talking, occasionally mixed with some insights and hearsay, not solemn, just chatting casually.

Yu Yunlan has a quiet temperament and doesn't talk much, but with him, he won't be cold.

Xin Xueer held the illustration book on her lap and read it word for word.

This is a children's story of this era, with illustrations, the little girl reads it with relish, this is a new world she discovered after learning words and recognizing words.

Xiao Nian'er likes to be lively, but no one plays, so she has to fly back to the painting, and the picture scroll is spread out in the sun to warm up, and she seems to be asleep.

"Tweet!"

All kinds of birds got up, and all kinds of bird calls were intertwined, and it was difficult to hear clearly; In the crystal clear stream, you can see white, gray, and cyan stones, and three or two fish came to the edge of the stream, and the gills of the fish were closed, and suddenly they moved, and ran away.

In this environment, Fang Rui and Yu Yunlan played three or two games of chess.

Wait for Yu Yunlan to read.

Fang Rui began to cultivate, and it took half an hour.

In the past, his qualifications were wasted, and he didn't have the slightest feeling of penance, but now that his qualifications have been greatly improved, he can also appreciate the fascinating charm of cultivation.

After the cultivation was over, he began to sort out and communicate the information after the Great Black Sky Pollution was purified in the Heavenly Dao line, which was complicated and disorganized, and most of them were useless, what Fang Rui had to do was to find out the useful ones and combine them to form skills, which was probably similar to panning for gold in.

When the time came, Xin Xueer was also reluctant to put down the illustration book and began to practice and write.

is doing these things, plain, but not boring, especially, with a peerless beauty like Yu Yunlan by her side, just looking at it, it is pleasing to the eye, and the mood will unconsciously get better.

"A few days ago, I was still fighting against the big black sky to save the world, and now, I have entered the ordinary daily life of pension!"

Fang Rui stretched his waist, shining in the rising sun.

……

Midday.

Fang Rui didn't want to cook, so he proposed to go out to eat and play in the afternoon by the way.

"Xue'er, these days in the palace, suffocated, right?" He touched the little girl's head and asked.

"Fortunately, Sister Li taught me a lot of ......"

Xin Xue'er said, and suddenly looked at Yu Yunlan: "Sister Yu is different again!" ”

"A little spell."

With Yu Yunlan's immortal posture, if he goes to the city without concealment, causing chaos like Pan An, it is really not an exaggeration, and there will be countless more incidents in plain vain.

Such a small spell that concealed it gave a filter-like light, and others looked ordinary, only Fang Rui and Xin Xue'er could see the true face.

This is a habit that the supernatant developed in the first place.

Yu Yunlan was also her, but after all, this was the first time that the deity had gone out with Fang Rui, and at this time, he was not confident enough to ask: "Fang Daoyou, is this okay?" Do I want to change my clothes? ”

"It's not necessary, in terms of appearance, Yu Daoyou is the first person I have seen, this is beautiful and I don't know it." Fang Rui smiled and shook his head.

When Yu Yunlan heard this, a light flush appeared on her beautiful jade face, and her head was slightly offset.

The beauty of such a cold and subtle is just like that poem, the most is the gentleness of bowing your head, and the shyness of the cool breeze is like a water lotus.

Fang Rui and his entourage did not have a carriage, but walked out and went to the street.

As you go deeper into this ancient city and come to the downtown area, the fireworks in the world come with the sound of selling.

"The newly arrived cloth of Yizhou Luchun is famous all over the world, and today it is nine folds!"

"Liangzhou mules and horses, ploughing, grinding, transporting goods...... Don't miss out! ”

"Yuezhou black potato, 30 stone per mu, come and see if you are farming!"

……

After the war passed, the situation was stable, and the Nanyu court relaxed its policies, encouraged commerce and trade, encouraged the spread of good seeds, and sent materials from various states.

Nanyu Capital City Construction, the city, the development of the city is full of vitality and vitality.

Listen to the wind building.

Fang Rui has been in Jianye for a lot of time, so he naturally knows the famous food here.

"Listen to the butter tea and plate duck in Fenglou, it is a must, come, Yu Daoyou try it!"

He picked up the dough cake as thin as a cicada's wings, rolled up the steaming golden plate of duck meat and vegetables, and handed it to Yu Yunlan.

"Thank you."

Yu Yunlan's cold eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he took it.

In this era, the status of women is very low, even if they are loving and harmonious couples, few men can do this to serve women and eat, but Fang Rui does it very naturally.

Her heart is complicated, her lips are lightly opened, and she takes a bite gently, and in her mouth, the fragrant aroma of duck fat and the tenderness of vegetables are mixed together and explode on the taste buds, fat but not greasy, and there is an aftertaste between her lips and teeth.

This kind of food makes people unconsciously crooked their eyebrows.

"Fang Daoyou also eats." Yu Yunlan thought about it for a while, and also learned to roll one up and handed it over.

"Woo, Uncle and Sister Yu are like husband and wife!"

Xin Xue'er's big black eyes like jewels turned around smartly, and suddenly said.

If Li Cao was here, she would inevitably pat her little head: 'Okay, co-authored, I spoiled you for nothing a few days ago!' ’

With the little girl's words, the air suddenly became quiet.

"Children's words are unscrupulous, don't blame Yu Daoyou."

Fang Rui stuffed the rolled duck meat over: "Xue'er, this yours, gag your mouth." ”

"Ahh

Xin Xue'er was like a big cat, buried her head, entered the enchantment alone, didn't speak, couldn't hear anything, couldn't see anything, and ate very deliciously.

She lived a difficult life when she was a child, but now she is a little older, the conditions are excellent, and she still has a special love and cherishment for food, and she must eat it clean every time.

Well, in the words of Fang Rui's previous life, this is a snack goods, the most cute and loving kind of snack goods.

The three of them enjoyed their food and listened to the sounds outside.

"How unwise the empress is!" One put down the wine cup and sighed.

"Isn't it? How can there be such a reason in the world to reduce taxes for peasant households, small merchants and hawkers, but to impose heavy taxes on the properties of our officials and eunuchs? There was anger in his voice.

"The most ridiculous thing is that I heard that the empress is going to expand the state examination, what kind of scientific examination, and let those poor cloth and grass people compete with me on the same stage, isn't this nonsense?" The man spoke, slapping the table.

"Yes, how can that be!" The other felt the same way.

"I also heard that the empress wants to improve the status of women, in my opinion, in the future, maybe women will still be officials!" This is told in a mocking and exaggerated tone, as a joke.

"Hahahaha!"

Suddenly, there was a lot of laughter, obviously they were all taken as jokes, and they didn't think that such a thing would come true.

……

"What do you think of these?"

Fang Rui asked.

Many of these things, in fact, are Li Cao's ...... Learn from him.

"I think it's a good thing." Yu Yunlan thought for a moment and said.

"Wrong! It is a good thing for the people of Limin; But for these people, it is very bad. In the eyes of this person, the princes and generals, and the families of the eunuchs should be rich and glorious for generations, how can those Li people be allowed to share their glory? ”

Fang Rui sneered: "The ass decides the head!" ”

"Yes."

Yu Yunlan thought so, and said: "Nanyu is like the rising sun, it is setting off a change, Fang Daoyou doesn't need to worry too much. ”

"Haha, that's good. In my opinion, the empress is doing a great cause that has never been seen before or since, and they are right to worry. ”

Fang Rui pointed outside: "As the so-called, the general trend of soup, such a fierce barking person, just like a mantis arm as a car, will eventually be run over by the wheel of history mercilessly." ”

"Besides, the scholars control the right to speak, but in my case, it doesn't count, the people say it. Later, we'll go outside and have a look. ”

Eaten.

Xin Xue'er just came out of a person's enchantment, touched her little belly, jumped, left and right, and pulled Fang Rui and Yu Yunlan onto the street.

After turning two corners and slipping past a few stalls, the little girl had more snacks in her hands.

Obviously, she has just eaten, but she can just eat, and her small mouth is chirping, which makes people worry about whether her little belly will burst if she keeps eating.

While shopping, Fang Rui will also ask random questions and chat with the stall owners.

"Those ruffians who bullied people have been arrested to build roads, and the court has done a good job!"

"Last month, the Niu family next door gave birth to a child, and the poll tax was not paid, and I heard that the poll tax will be exempted in the future!"

"There's a lot of stuff in the bazaar, all over the world. That black potato, it is said that the yield per mu is thirty stones, and I don't know whether it is true or false, if there are twenty stones, I will be satisfied! ”

……

This is the voice of the people of Limin, contrary to those children of the official eunuchs, although most of them also feel that the empress subverts the impression and may not be appropriate, but basically there is no bad word.

Because they have rods and scales in their hearts, they know best that their lives are much better now than before.

Come to a candy man's stall.

"Auntie, what do you think of the empress?" Yu Yunlan asked as Fang Rui learned.

"Empress, listen to others, the chicken...... Pheasant ......"

"Chicken Si Chen."

"That's right, Si Chen, that's the word!"

The eldest lady patted her head: "I don't know what these readers say, I don't know what they mean, it shouldn't be a good thing, but I think Your Majesty is quite good." My son went to serve in the army, and the fields were divided! ”

"Auntie, your son is in the army?" Fang Rui asked.

"Yes, my four sons, except for the youngest eight-year-old, the three older ones have gone."

Speaking of this, the smile on the eldest mother's face faded: "It's just that the eldest baby and the second baby are dead, and the third baby also has a broken arm......"

When Fang Rui and Yu Yunlan heard this, they were silent.

"Hey, how can there be immortals in war? Fortunately, what kind of military merit was awarded to the field, and one hundred and twenty acres of land were sent, which is enough for my three or four children to marry a daughter-in-law! ”

The eldest lady said, her face full of gratitude: "One hundred and twenty acres of fields, all of them have been sent down, they are all good fields outside the city, the court is good, Your Majesty is good!" ”

She chattered, and the candy in her hand blew the candy man.

Maybe it's because the little girl is cute, this sugar man is big, twice as big.

Fang Rui gave double the money, but the eldest lady didn't want it.

"I've done it for a while, so I won't do it, take a break...... The third baby went to the Tang Mansion to redeem his sister, and when the time comes, the children will be by his side, and I will be able to enjoy Qingfu! ”

The eldest lady said.

Fang Rui handed the sugar man to the little girl, quietly put down a corner of broken silver, and left with Yu Yunlan.

"Fang Daoyou seems to have feelings?"

"Yes, I ...... a long time ago"

Fang Rui said, shaking his head.

He remembered that at the beginning of the crossing, he pretended to be a grandson in front of the tiger master, in that case, it was the most correct choice, but it was the sadness of the times.

Think about what I saw and heard before.

Fang Rui said sincerely: "Ordinary people, what luxury can they have? maintain law and order; Charge less taxes; When the year is better and the fields are abundant, we will be satisfied......"

"As long as they maintain relative fairness, do not punish harsh laws, and adjust the wind and rain more smoothly, they will create wealth themselves, and that will be a peaceful and prosperous world."

"On the contrary, corrupt officials and wealthy families are greedy and unbridled, and their desires are difficult to ......fill."

Fang Rui laughed: "They can't wait to maintain the degree of oppression at the bottom line that the people do not rebel." ”

"Fang Daoyou has the world in his heart." Yu Yunlan was silent and said softly.

"Hearts for the world? The worries of the world are worried, and the joys of the world are happy, but I can't deserve it, I ...... It's just an ordinary person! ”

Fang Rui waved his hand: "That's it, let's not talk about this, let's go, let's only enjoy the mountains and rivers today, and don't talk about major events in the world." ”

He took the little girl by the hand and walked forward.

Rear.

Yu Yunlan looked at Fang Rui's back, as if it was coated with a layer of golden light in the sun, and he was slightly distracted.

She had seen Fang Rui in the three southwestern states, laying out the overall situation, swallowing mountains and rivers like a tiger; I have also seen that when fighting side by side, Fang Rui is decisive and ruthless, and he makes a decision immediately; I saw it again today, with pity and empathy for the people at the bottom.

'Fang Daoyou, he really regards the bottom as a person, it is special, different, and unique in the world. ’

Yu Yunlan smiled, such a beautiful smile, like spring flowers blooming, moonlight, as if the world was overshadowed, but unfortunately, no one could see it.

She seemed to want to open it, shook her head slightly, and quickly chased after her.

……

Xuanwu Lake.

Fang Rui rented a small boat and went across the lake with Yu Yunlan and Xin Xueer.

The weather is clear, the water of Xuanwu Lake is green, like a huge mirror, and the boats row by, stirring up ripples and rippling, and the water is rippling with sunlight.

From time to time, you can see the big fish swimming over, and the gulls and herons on the water surface pass by like sharp arrows.

"If you look down from a high altitude, the entire Xuanwu Lake is like a shining jewel, and the scenery here is very good." Fang Rui said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, this Xuanwu Lake is a node of the dragon veins of the nineteen states."

"Oh? This statement is unusual. ”
