Chapter 18: The Emperor Arrives at the King's Palace
Seeing him go, Yang Shu and Pai Gow Qi breathed a sigh of relief, Dingwang's Mansion, the one who likes to beat people the most is not Old Man Yang, but Pang Qi.
He has followed the old man Yang since he was a child, and went to the battlefield at the age of fifteen, in order to save the old man, he injured the unspeakable place, and he can no longer be humane.
Old man Yang felt guilty, put down his words, in the Yang family, everyone has to respect Pang Qi as much as he respects, who dares to put on the master's face and remove his name from the family tree.
Old Man Yang spoke, it was a spit and a nail, even Yang Shu didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Pang Qi.
Pang Qi is dedicated to the Yang family, and Yang Shu, the only seedling of the Yang family, is a deep responsibility of love, and there is no less stick to serve on weekdays.
But the original owner was not right, and over time, Pang Qi was too lazy to do it again.
However, being too lazy to do it does not mean that you don't do it at all, the interest is coming, and it is common to use the original owner as a sandbag.
Old man Yang let go, Yang Shu had to be restrained, and he didn't go out all day.
In the evening, Pai Jiu knocked on Yang Shu's door with a somewhat solemn face, "Shizi, Yan Lingrong is dead." ”
Yang Shu raised his eyes, not surprised, "What is the Yan family's reaction?" ”
"I'm in the palace."
Yang Shu rubbed his fingers against Peiyu, it's okay to make a small fight, but if you make a fuss, the nature is different, and the emperor is afraid that he is waiting for this moment.
Yan Lingrong has to die if he doesn't die, and if he doesn't die, the emperor will have to design someone else.
The relationship between him and Old Man Yang can't always be so stiff, and something has to be eased.
There is nothing better to alleviate than to make a mistake yourself.
"Haitang Courtyard has been cleaned up?" Yang Shu asked.
"Everything that should be done has been done."
"Well, let Xu Yueyao move over." Yang Shu took a sip of water, Xu Yueyao and him did not have that kind of relationship, and living with him was not good for both parties.
After sitting for a while, Yang Shu opened the door and walked out.
The moonlight is bright, cicadas can be heard from time to time, and in the courtyard, the beauty with a thin waist and long legs is sad and weeping.
"Xu Jingzhou hasn't left yet, so I'm worried."
The sudden voice made the frightened Xu Yueyao quickly wipe away her tears.
"Shi, Shizi."
"He went to Huining County, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, but he is safer than us."
Yang Shu sat down on the stone bench, "What temperament do you like?" Tomorrow I will let Pai Gow buy a few little girls back. ”
"Shizi, I can take care of myself."
Yang Shu's gaze moved to Xu Yueyao, "The Begonia Courtyard is not smaller than this, do you want to clean it alone?" ”
"I've been alone for a long time, don't hold on to the begonias where they are, the haunted thing happened in the Dingwang Mansion, do you think it's like words?"
Xu Yueyao lowered her head slightly, alone, it seemed to be a little difficult......
"I heard Pai Gow say that you hate the food in the kitchen."
Xu Yueyao couldn't care about the heat on her face, and shook her head hurriedly.
"The dinner that was delivered, you didn't move, you cooked it yourself."
"My parents died early, my eldest brother and I didn't have the money to hire slaves, these years, we have been cooking and washing by ourselves, and we are not used to the delicacies of the mountains and seas, which is why we ......"
Yang Shu glanced at her, and he didn't speak until he glanced at Xu Yueyao's face, "You just don't want to speak straightforwardly, the dishes in the kitchen taste ......"
Old man Yang threw people very thoroughly, and the kitchen was also thrown, and the veteran played a big knife well, which does not mean that he can cook.
One by one, they are practical, the amount is sufficient, and as for the saltiness, it follows the fate.
You can't eat the dead.
It's not even a little bit close to the deliciousness.
"Add some chopped green onions." Yang Shu said casually, estimating that the emperor was coming, and before being punished, he had a full meal.
Xu Yueyao was slightly stunned, reacted to talking to her, nodded, and left in small steps.
She moved quickly, and came back in less than half an hour, in addition to the green onion explained by Yang Shu, there was also an egg on her face.
The clear soup and white noodles are very simple.
Blowing the hot air, Yang Shu took a sip, no wonder this girl made it herself, it was really delicious.
"Your eldest brother doesn't know how to lift."
Seeing that Yang Shu had a gentle attitude and no one else was present, Xu Yueyao eased her nervousness, she looked at Yang Shu suspiciously, eating noodles, how could she get involved with her eldest brother.
"The sister of others does not touch the spring water with her fingers, his sister washes and cooks for him, and changes tricks to replenish his body, he is good, more slender than the girl's house."
"There is no student who does not work hard to prepare for the exam." Xu Yueyao was depressed, they had saved for a long time, and they took everything they could, thinking that they could settle down in Jian'an, but they were burned clean.
Ironically, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is no justice.
Because of Yan Lingrong's instigation of ruffians, her needlework and eldest brother's calligraphy and paintings could not be sold, and she was worried about three meals, how could people not lose weight.
She shouldn't have come to Jian'an with her eldest brother.
"Blame yourself again?" Yang Shu spit out the last mouthful of noodles and motioned for Xu Yueyao to sit.
"It's not your fault that you're beautiful, it's the incompetence of the monarch of this country, who allows officials to run rampant and override the law."
"Your beauty belongs to you, not to please the powerful, no one has the right to take it by force, it is their fault, and the law does not dare to perfect, and it does not effectively serve the people."
Xu Yueyao looked at Yang Shu in a daze, he, as a beneficiary, would actually speak from their standpoint.
"What will happen if the prince is in power?" Xu Yueyao asked this sentence uncontrollably.
"The world reads aloud, both men and women. Breaking the family, there are roads in the poor, taking the imperial examination, only looking at talent, and equal rights for men and women. Support commerce, improve farming, and the people have food and new clothes. ”
Xu Yueyao's beautiful eyes widened, and she didn't even know that Yang Shu was gone, this gentleman who was despised by the world had such lofty ambitions!
Yang Shu said that she didn't even dare to dream.
Xu Yueyao's heart was shocked like never before.
If he is sincere, Xu Yueyao hopes that Yang Shu can win, and is even willing to pray for him every day.
At this moment, Xu Yueyao overturned all her previous impressions of Yang Shu.
A person who can think like this is bad, and where can he be bad?
As Yang Shu expected, the emperor came, very low-key, followed by a eunuch and the commander of the forbidden army.
After standing in Qixia Courtyard for a while, Pang Qi led him in.
In the room, Old Man Yang sat up, not angry and arrogant, and quietly watched the emperor.
"Father."
The Emperor called out, and bowed his head like a child doing something wrong.
"Hubu Shangshu has worked hard for many years, and he has never asked me for anything, but if he becomes something, he will kneel for a day, and I will not nod."
"This family, it is their Feng family who wants to get married, and it is they who say they will leave." Old Man Yang's eyes were full of sarcasm, "It's just that there is no need to determine the king's mansion." ”
Old Man Yang looked at the emperor and his tone was slightly cold.
"Father, heir Ye always remembers the siege of Fengzhou, it was my father who rushed out of the siege with me, the first emperor liked his young son, and it was also his father's persuasion that kept my crown prince." The Emperor's voice choked.
Old Man Yang's eyes did not fluctuate, when did that benevolent child become the affectionate appearance of this honey-mouthed sword?
"Let's get down to business." Old Man Yang said lightly.
"Is my father in good health? I want to set up a banquet to reward the soldiers in three days. ”
"Got it."
"My father is good to live and recuperate."
The emperor looked at Old Man Yang, and seeing that he didn't mean to leave him to speak, he turned around and walked out.
