Zhao Luying was finishing freshening up from the bed at the moment, and strode out of his room, followed by no one else, but an old man like him who had been the first housekeeper of Zhao Mansion for most of his life, Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan's original surname is not Zhao, only because he was sold into the Zhao family when he was a child and met Zhao Luying, and he worked hard for the Zhao family for a long time before he was rewarded with the surname Zhao in the first few months, which is a great honor for a servant, and Zhao Luying only has a trace of guilt for this, seeing that there is no one around, Zhao Luying is rare to show a trace of fatigue on his face, he is really old, really old.. No longer like decades ago, even if he stays up for three days and three nights without sleeping, he is still energetic, he is old, and the old man is not as desperate as before to do something, the fatigue in his eyes is the best proof of this, but Zhao Luying also sees this matter thoroughly, and also sees it directly, he knows that people have such a way to go after all, and he is not afraid to face the people below after leaving, if he really wants to say that he owes his heart, Zhao Luying only feels that he owes the girl who has accompanied him all his life, and he has never been with him well, and the daughter who did not recognize himself as his father since birth, not to mention the granddaughter who he has never looked at.

seemed to be aware of Zhao Luying's abnormality at the moment, and had been following Zhao Luying closely behind Zhao Yan, but Zhao Yan hurriedly stepped forward and asked softly:

"Master, do you want to rest at the rest meeting? Miss just returned home yesterday, and I don't know a lot of things, I'm afraid that the next person will have to teach for a while, so the master can rest and rest more, and when the young lady is almost there, the cheap slave will come to report to the master."

Hearing Zhao Yandi's inquiry, Zhao Luying shook his head decisively, he didn't like to delay when he did things, plus this matter was so big that it was related to the survival of the Zhao family in a hundred years, and he couldn't tolerate him Zhao Luying napping, but he shook his head, Zhao Yan saw that Zhao Luying rejected his words, and he didn't say anything, took a few steps back, and continued to follow Zhao Luying towards the courtyard with his head down.

The courtyard of Zhaojiadi is very large, compared to the imperial garden that has not been repaired for a long time, it is only slightly worse, and even from the south to the north, it will take an hour, Da Chu does not have the style of extravagance, it is rare to have this courtyard! Only Zhao Luying can have this handwriting! It can be compared with the Son of Heaven.

And Zhao Luying walked on this road that he had already walked for decades, but the expression on his face was a little weird, he looked at the stone road in the courtyard, and remembered that sixty years ago, he was married on that muddy path, and the bride who carried back, that night, it also coincided with the death of the grandfather of the king, the happy event of the Zhao family, the royal mourning, but it was a coincidence that they came together, at that time, Zhao Luying had just embarked on the official career not long ago, the Zhao clan also specially removed all the red letters overnight in order to avoid suspicion, and even the etiquette rules of the second day were all canceled, and Zhao Luying was allowed to enter the palace overnight, so far, Zhao Luying is such an officialdom newcomer, but from a civil official to a military general, he didn't even have a candle in the cave, so he had to go to the border and guard the frontier.

Zhao Luying still remembers that when he went home that day, the sky was still foggy, and it was not very wide, and there were already a few street vendors who got up early on Chu Road and began to prepare for the early stall, which happened to be hungry at that time, and wanted to eat a bowl of noodles at the stall and then go home to sort out things, but because it was too early, the vendors had not yet risen, Zhao Luying shook his head at this, and did not intend to make things difficult for these vendors, so he went home directly, but he didn't want to just arrive at home, the girl who was already his daughter-in-law was wearing her own clothes, and had been standing outside the gate of Zhao's mansion, looking forward to it, and seemed to have been waiting for herself.

"Coming back?"

"Hmm.."

Zhao Luying didn't know how he felt about this inexplicable girl at that time, and he didn't think about how vigorous it would be.

Just to Zhao Luying's surprise, this woman seemed to be extremely smart, and when she saw that she came back from the palace alone, she didn't inquire about anything, but brought a bowl of noodles at the back of her room, and put it in front of her, and she sat down opposite her, and said bluntly:

"I'm afraid you'll get up early and be hungry, so I specially cooked a bowl for you, but it's still a little early, I don't know if it's delicious or not, if you think it's unpalatable, don't worry, I'll make you a bowl later."

Looking at the ground that was still faintly emitting hot air on the table, Zhao Luying looked up and smiled at his daughter-in-law, and without saying anything else, he finished the noodles cooked by the girl in one go, and there was no soup left, and the girl sat on the opposite seat and watched herself eat noodles, without speaking, without getting up, just sitting.

It wasn't until Zhao Luying finished eating the ground in the bowl that the girl stood up, put away the empty dishes and chopsticks, and put them aside, but she looked at Zhao Luying and said softly:

"Just now someone in the clan has come to inform me, saying that you are going to the border to be a soldier, but you can't bring your family, although we have just become husband and wife, but you can't cut off your future, but when you come in a hurry, the time in the interior of the house is not too long, I was going to make you a winter clothes, but this is just the beginning, but it is already too late, I see your clothes, except for the red robe is still new, but there are no new clothes, and most of them seem thin, but I am afraid that you will freeze when you go to the border pass, deliberately put some dowry in the baggage when I came, when you go, don't be too restrained, you have to spend the land money, not enough to write to me, I am sending some for you.”

The girl said that she opened the prepared salute, but felt that the clothes in the salute were still less, and she couldn't help but add a few more, and took advantage of Zhao Luying's inattention, secretly took off the golden hairpin on her head under the clothes, and put it under the burden, after doing this, she felt a little more at ease, and couldn't help patting her chest, but she closed the burden and packed it carefully...

After a long time, the woman took the burden to herself, and then smiled at herself, and said frankly:

"Since I have been married, I am your daughter-in-law, I am a member of your Zhao family, although I am from a small family, I also know etiquette, when I am at home, I will not fall into your name, and my husband can rest assured at the border."

After saying this, Zhao Luying was still in place, but his daughter-in-law did not urge herself, Zhao Luying only knew that it seemed that she had called the girl's name for the first time at that time.

"Wan'er.."

As soon as these words were spoken, a trace of tears faintly flashed in the corner of Wan'er's eyes, but she couldn't bear it and didn't let the tears fall, but looked at Zhao Luying and smiled.

It's just that Zhao Luying didn't know at that time that in his life, he only called this name twice, once when he left the border pass, and once when Wan'er died...

His thoughts were pulled back to him, but Zhao Luying's eyes couldn't help but have a trace of tears swirling, his footsteps had already stagnated, and Zhao Yan, who knew his master's heart, did not say anything to interrupt Zhao Luying's memories at this time, he knew better than anyone else that the patriarch of the Zhao family in front of him, the Great Chu Evergreen Stone had been...

"On the day of the wedding, who will handle it, when will it be welcomed, where will it be held, and what are the specifications?"

Four questions came out of Zhao Luying's mouth in a row, concise and straight to the point, he Zhao Luying doesn't like to talk nonsense, and he doesn't like to do useless things, and this is also the case at this moment, and Zhao Yan has already understood this matter, and responded respectfully:

"On the day of the wedding, the host of the Ministry of Rites Zhao Jie Zhao served as the lord, when the ugly time will go out to patrol the street, before the time of Yin has to go back to the house, this matter is the national teacher personally calculated, the place of marriage, according to His Majesty's words, selected in the Zhao family, then His Majesty will come with the concubine, and the prince is one of the kings, including the national teacher today I am all coming together, the major court officials do not need to speak, naturally will not be absent, the specifications are in accordance with Your Majesty's words, all the royal family specifications are operated, and the lady will never be left behind."

After 1510 informed Zhao Luying of the process of the wedding day, Zhao Yan stopped speaking, but stood aside and waited quietly for Zhao Luying to write down, and Zhao Luying heard this, nodded, but quickly shook his head again.

Seeing Zhao Luying shaking his head, Zhao Yan did not wrinkle, but he never spoke, and continued to maintain the posture he stood in just now, without moving at all.

"The royal specifications are too high, our Zhao family is just a minister, although it is a son, but it is married to my Zhao family, it is reasonable, not in accordance with the rules.

After saying this, Zhao Luying did not stop at all, but continued to take steps and walked forward, but the direction of going was no longer his granddaughter's wing room, which he had not met, but towards the gate of Zhao's mansion.

Although Zhao Yan noticed something strange behind him, he did not open his mouth to break it, but continued to follow Zhao Luying.

A master and a servant walked in the courtyard of this Zhao Mansion for a long time, until they came to the door, Zhao Luying saw that there were already many people running on Chu Dao, the corner of his mouth smiled slightly, but it was impossible to guess the reason, but his steps did not stop, but accelerated a little, and Zhao Yan, who had been following behind him, also sped up a little, and followed closely behind Zhao Luying.

"I don't do idle things today, but I am greedy for a cup! Drink a drink! Just you and me!"

After Zhao Luying walked for a long time, he opened his mouth to say this, and Zhao Yan, who had been following him closely, was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but then did not refuse, nodded, and continued to follow his "master" towards Chu Dao.
