As soon as the next day dawned, Xiaoyi had dark circles under her eyes, lowered her head, and carried a basin of washing water to Du Yiyi's bed.

Du did not forget that he had just woken up, and when he saw Xiao Yi coming, he still had dark circles under his eyes, so he must have not slept well, so he asked Xiao Yi to put the water down!

Xiao Yi thought that Du was angry with him. Then he said:

"Childe, you won't be angry with me, you want to drive me away!"

Du did not forget and replied:

"What am I angry about, I saw your dark circles and told you to go back to sleep."

Xiao Yi lowered his head and asked again:

"Childe, didn't you get angry yesterday when I told me about you and Sister Liu and Miss Siqi know, I also know that I am too talkative"!

Du Yi rubbed his eyes and said:

"It's good to pay attention to what you say in the future, I'm actually the same as talking to you, I accidentally leaked my mouth, what I've done is not afraid of what others say, you should pay more attention, then Miss Daughter is still angry"!

Xiaoyi hurriedly put down the basin and went back to the room to see Xi Siqi who was sleeping.

Xi Siqi, who had been in trouble in the middle of the night last night, fell asleep very soundly at this time, and Xiaoyi also felt very sleepy and continued to fall asleep!

Du didn't forget to finish washing, and then came to other rooms to take a look, and saw that several people were still sleeping, so he sighed:

"These lazy worms can really sleep"!

Then he went out to buy breakfast for the three of them.

Walking in the small town of Luohan Temple again, the people on the side saw Du Don't forget, and they congratulated and saluted, and even bought buns, and the people in the bun shop didn't accept Du Forget's silver!

In an instant, Du Yi felt that the world had changed!

At this time, I encountered a team of horse-drawn carriages pulling a few boxes past Du Buyi, and the merchants on the side of Du Buyi's toilet:

"What are these officers and soldiers pulling?"

The merchant replied:

"Tanhualang, don't you know, recently the new emperor wants to take his mother Princess Jiang into the palace to enjoy the blessings, of course Princess Jiang wants to make a special offering near her home and take it to the capital"!

Du Yi asked curiously:

"Why do you say confession"?

The merchant whispered:

"Confession is to rob the people directly, don't you say it, I said it"?

Du Buyi instantly became angry, and chased directly in the direction where the carriage was traveling just now, and after a while, he found that these carriages were all heading for the ferry port of Luohan Temple.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a woman's cry not far away!

Du Buyi followed the voice, and saw a young woman lying on the ground crying, and a two or three-year-old child beside him kept his eyes staring ahead.

When he saw the woman weeping, he asked:

"This sister-in-law, why are you crying here"!

The woman replied:

"The only bale of grain that my husband and I have saved through hard work has just been snatched away by those damn officers and soldiers, and my husband has been arrested as a porter, how will my mother and I live in the future"!

Du Buyi looked at the two soldiers not far away who were carrying a big bag.

Du did not forget to chase after him directly, stood in front of the two of them, blocked their way, and said to the two soldiers:

"In broad daylight, as officers and soldiers of the imperial court, what is the reason for you to rob the people's food like this"!

The two officers and soldiers saw that Du was dressed as a scholar and his body was also thin, so they directly stepped forward and pushed Du Buxing, but they didn't push it.

One of them got angry and said:

"At this time, Governor Chen ordered us to purchase the tribute to Beijing for the princess, and the little scholar quickly got out of the way!"

Du did not forget and said angrily:

"If you don't return this bag of grain to others today, I won't let you go!"

As soon as the two soldiers heard Du Buyi talk to themselves in such a tone, they angrily put down the grain bag, pulled out the long knife on their waists together, and slashed directly at Du Buyi.

Du did not forget to dodge, and Shi Zhan Tiyun ran directly behind the two of them, and kicked the two of them to the ground with one kick!

The two of them got up and slashed at Du Bu Bu again, and Du Bu Bu Bu kicked the two of them to the ground again.

At this time, the two officers and soldiers realized that they had met a master, and they were really not opponents, so they hurriedly slipped away first, and then went to find help to save the soldiers!

Du did not forget to carry the bag of millet and walked back to the young woman and the child.

By this time the woman had risen and stood up, and when she saw that she had not forgotten to help her snatch the grain back, she immediately wiped away her tears and became glad.

Then he invited Du Bu Bu to go back to his home to rest first, Du Bu Bu went back to his house with him, helped him put the grain away, and prepared to leave!

Then the young woman began to weep again, and Du did not forget to ask:

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you"?

The young woman replied:

"You helped us get back the food, but the officers and soldiers will definitely come again, and I don't know how to retaliate against us when the time comes"?

Du didn't forget to think about it, so he said:

"It's okay, I'll go to the prefect's review"!

After saying that, he went out, returned to Luohan Town, bought a horse in the town, and rode to the Yamen of the Anlu Prefect's Mansion.

After a few hours, he finally arrived at the door of the prefect's yamen, and Du did not forget to let the guards report:

"Tanhualang has something to see Governor Chen"!

After a while, Chen Zhuang came out to greet Du Buyi, and Du Buyi said angrily:

"Why did the prefect rob the people"!

When Governor Chen heard this, he said to Du Yi:

"Tanhualang, let's go inside and talk, okay?"

Du did not forget to follow the prefect Chen Zhuang into the yamen study, and Chen Zhuang signaled his subordinates to guard outside!

Du did not forget to speak:

"Now that the new emperor has just ascended the throne, you, as parents and officials, have robbed the people of your fellow villagers, aren't you afraid of provoking the anger of the people"!

Governor Chen replied:

"Old man, I can't help it, this is all ordered by the emperor and his mother, Queen Jiang, to wait for me to do this"!

Du Yi did not forget and asked:

"Queen Chiang, how could he be so disregarding the life and death of the people"?

Governor Chen said:

"Queen Jiang is now preparing to go to the capital to enjoy happiness, and she will not come back in the future, where will he care about the life and death of the people here, because he will naturally take care of his fellow villagers here!"

Du did not forget and said:

"He can't do the same!"

Governor Chen then said:

"Now that Queen Jiang has not only taken away the property of the palace, but also asked several county governments near us to send a year's harvest to the capital, how can we have surplus grain in these county governments, so he signaled us to find it in the hands of the people!"

Du did not forget to say angrily:

"This Queen Jiang must think that she will be the queen mother in the future, so she is so domineering, and she is doing nonsense!"

Jia Zhifu hurriedly dissuaded Du and said:

"You can't say that about the future queen mother, we can't afford to mess with it!"

Du did not forget to say:

"Lord Prefect, I won't trouble you, I'll go to Xingwangfu in person!"

After speaking, without waiting for the prefect to send him off, he rushed out of the door, and rode to Xingwangfu again!

When I arrived at Xingwang's Mansion, it was almost dark!

Du Bu Bu let the guard in front of the door go in to report, and after a while, after a long time, Zhu Sanmei walked out, and when she saw Du Bu Buyi, she actually ran over and hugged her!

I haven't seen the third sister for half a year, and the third sister seems to be a lot more mature than before, especially when the two peaks hugged Du Buyi, sticking to Du Bufu's chest, Du Buyi almost forgot the purpose of coming for a while!

Du Buyi slowly pushed Zhu Sanmei away and asked:

"The third sister has been doing well lately, I heard that she is about to become a princess, congratulations"?

The third sister actually cried, replying:

"What's good, I still like to be with you, where can you take me with you in the future?"

Du did not forget and said:

"Don't you want to follow Queen Jiang into Beijing to enjoy the blessings of being a princess?

Zhu Sanmei replied:

"Congratulations on becoming a Tanhualang, I don't know what official position the emperor's brother has given you?"

Du did not forget to whisper back to Zhu Sanmei truthfully:

"It's just a little post"!

Zhu Sanmei said angrily at this time:

"When I enter Beijing, I will definitely ask the emperor's brother to give you a big official"!

Du did not forget and replied:

"Forget it, I'm good at being a post"!

Zhu Sanmei asked:

"Brother Du, did you come to see me this time, but I've been busy for the past few days, and I've been preparing to bring things to Beijing every day?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"No, I'm here to find Queen Jiang for something"!

Zhu Sanmei got angry, and pushed Du Yi and said:

"Then you go to my mother, I don't want to see you again"!

As he spoke, he ran back to the palace in a rage.

After a while, the palace guards took Du Buyi into the palace hall.

At this time, Queen Jiang was already sitting in the center of the hall.

Du did not forget to bow first, and said:

"Tanhua Du does not forget to see Queen Jiang"!

At this time, Queen Jiang did not forget to call this, but she was a little angry, and said:

"Who is still the queen, this palace is the current emperor's mother, the queen mother"!

Du did not forget to see Queen Jiang say this, so he had to change his words:

"Tanhua Du did not forget to meet the Empress Dowager Jiang"!

At this time, Queen Jiang was comfortable listening to it, so she motioned to Du not to forget!

He asked:

"What is the matter with Du Tanhua here"?

Du didn't forget to think about it, if he asked directly, he would offend Queen Jiang, after all, at this time, his second brother's mother hesitated and said:

"I passed by a farmer's house in Anlu this morning, and I happened to run into officers and soldiers who took away all the surplus grain of a farmer's women and children, and I was worried that the farmer's women and children would starve to death in the future."

Queen Chiang said:

"What's the matter with a peasant woman and child in the palace, Tanhualang doesn't seem to be able to come to the palace, mention this kind of trivial matter"!

Du did not forget and replied:

"The Queen Mother turned out to be the mother of His Majesty the Emperor, and naturally she is also the mother of the people of the world, everyone in the world should be your children, of course mothers can't watch their children starve!"

At this time, Queen Chiang said:

"If this is the case, then you can tell the woman and child's surname and address, and I will ask someone to return his food!"

Du did not forget and said:

"Queen Mother, it's not just that family that is starving, I see that many people in Anlu Mansion and nearby prefectures and counties are still starving because the officers and soldiers have taken away food!"

At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang said angrily:

"Do you think that the Queen Mother doesn't need to eat, just starve to death, and then give all the food to those people to eat, okay?"

Then he continued:

"I just agreed to return the food to that woman and child, which is enough to give you face, you are really too much, do you deceive me as a widow"!

Then with a wave of his hand, he said:

"Drop-off, I don't want to see this person again"!

At this time, Du Bu was about to continue, but he didn't expect to be carried out directly by the palace housekeeper and servants!
