Emperor Xinchen

At dawn, there are still few pedestrians on the official road.

Occasionally, there are a few crows on the outskirts of the city, ringing in my ears, and there is quite a bit of life.

"Liangyu..."

Holding the saddle and looking at the back of the horseman, Yao Huaiyuan couldn't tell whether it was her real body or Liangyu who had been with her for several years.

The person in front of me looks so much like her, no matter in the clothes or the way he speaks.

The person in front of her looks so much like Liangyu, whether it's the back view, or the inadvertent hook of her lips...

"Mingqing?"

Seemingly hearing the people behind him talking, Chu Liangyu turned his head in response, only to see Chu Yang ticking off the golden border for the people on horseback.

Taking advantage of the thick gold rim, the facial features are becoming more and more unclear.

Ah!It is a good thing not to see the facial features clearly.

At least for Chu Liangyu at the moment.

How similar is the posture of buckling the saddle to her A Yuan?

Letting his gaze linger on the plain-clothed woman, Chu Liangyu couldn't restrain himself and softened his voice: "But you worry that you won't be able to keep up with the morning court?"

"Ok?"

Yao Huaiyuan didn't seem to expect that Chu Liangyu would turn around at this moment, and his tone was a little careless.

Chu Liangyu was not annoyed either.

Turning around and leading the horse to continue walking, Chu Liangyu whispered softly: "Mingqing don't have to worry...Gu told the housekeeper yesterday not to go..."

"Not toward?"

Yao Huaiyuan's heart shuddered when he vaguely remembered that the man leading the horse was the king.

It turned out that the woman in military uniform in front of her was not a sister, but the king sitting in the court.

"Your Majesty should put state affairs first."

Slowly exhaling turbid air, Yao Huaiyuan loosened his hands on the saddle.

Not in his place, not seeking his government.

She understood that after her elder sister left, the hearts of the people in front of her eyes were as bitter as hers.

But if you are suffering in your heart, you will act recklessly like the person in front of you, abandoning the government and wandering on the road at night, it is really too much.

"If General Chu was alive, she would definitely not bear His Majesty's feelings."

Borrowing Liangyu's sister's name to beat the horseman, Yao Huaiyuan slightly raised his eyebrows, looking at the city gate not far away.

At the right time, it was the time when the city gates were changing over. The recruits in official uniforms replaced the veterans who were curled up and taking a nap under the wall, and the man pushing the wheelbarrow hummed a mountain tune and walked quickly on the official road.

"Look, Your Majesty, this is the living people under your rule!"

Watching more and more people flow, Yao Huaiyuan was delighted for no reason.

Chu Liangyu chuckled lightly when he heard the words: "Mingqing thinks that he has delayed the affairs of the court? It's okay, the day after tomorrow is the day when the northern Xinjiang soldiers will return to Beijing. The court also needs to make some preparations."

"Ah."

Yao Huaiyuan nodded, thinking about returning to the Ming Mansion from the bottom of his heart.

The original body and Ming Yuan did not have a close personal relationship, and it was impossible to tell that Ming Yuan's shell had changed.And the people in the Ming Palace serve every day, so it might be difficult to pretend.

Concentrating his brows and thinking about the countermeasures, Yao Huaiyuan caught a glimpse of several passing woodcutters wearing straw sandals with open toes.

"It's pathetic..."

"What's so pitiful?"

Stopping and standing by the side of the road, Chu Liangyu turned around and asked the horseman with a smile.

"Guess what?"

Pursing his lips to show off, Yao Huaiyuan's eyebrows were curved like a crescent moon.

"Really want to guess?" Chu Liangyu raised his foot and walked to Yao Huaiyuan's side, his eyes were full of teasing, "If you guess right, what's the prize?"

"The lottery? Your Excellency is already a king, and you want a lottery?" Leaning over to whisper to Chu Liangyu, Yao Huaiyuan deliberately bit the "jun" very hard.

"Heh..." Chu Liangyu frowned slightly, "Even so, I won't guess with you."

"Why?" I don't know why the person in front of me changed his expression so quickly, Yao Huaiyuan glanced at Chu Liangyu's eyebrows lightly, and teased, "There is no change! Why does this minister feel that His Majesty is not like His Majesty..."

"Really? Who do you think you look like?"

Infinitely getting close to the man on horseback, Chu Liangyu confirmed that the throbbing in his heart was not an illusion.

Could it be that A Yuan had an affair with Ming Yuan when he was alive?

Chu Liangyu lowered his voice: "Speak out, I don't blame you..."

"Really?" Yao Huaiyuan laughed as if sensing that this was a good opportunity to ask about his identity, "If Your Majesty guesses what I just said..."

"The woodcutter." Chu Liangyu asserted.

"The woodcutter?" Yao Huaiyuan covered his sleeves and smiled, with a coquettish look on his brows, "Your Majesty's speculation is not counted. You must know that the official path is either a woodcutter or..."

"Straw sandals."

Greedily catching the aura in the eyes of the person in front of him, Chu Liangyu couldn't hold back the throbbing in his heart.

Turning over and sitting behind Yao Huaiyuan, Chu Liangyu murmured: "Ayuan..."

"Huh? Your Majesty?" Yao Huaiyuan frowned slightly before he could hear what the people behind him were saying, "You are right, Straw Sandals, but you haven't said it yet. Why don't you feel sorry for them?"

"Ming Qing really thinks they are pitiful?" With a light smile and wrapping his arms around the waist of the person in front of him, Chu Liangyu is [-]% sure that the person sitting in front of her is not the right minister Ming Yuan, but the Emperor Qi whom she has been thinking about day and night. Huaiyuan.

"Ayuan is still staying away from the dust and smoke as always..."

Smiling lightly, he dropped his chin on Yao Huaiyuan's shoulder, Chu Liangyu embraced the beauty with one hand, and held the reins with the other, and drove the horse to chase the man wearing the straw sandals.

"Your Majesty?" Yao Huaiyuan asked after being strangled by the hands around his waist, "What are you going to do?"

"Don't call Your Majesty Gu, call Gu Liangyu!" Chu Liangyu smiled in Yao Huaiyuan's ear, and Chu Liangyu felt the warmth of spring.

"Liangyu?" Yao Huaiyuan frowned, but the people behind him laughed heartily.

If you are successful, why die? You only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals.Who would have thought that she would have spent half her life mourning just by spying on her at night.

"Ayuan, don't panic. Gu said they are not pitiful, but he has a reason..." Chu Liangyu chased after the woodcutter as he rode forward.

Seeing a noble man on horseback chasing after him, the woodcutters who went up the mountain all looked at each other in blank dismay.

"I don't know why the two girls came here?" The older one opened his mouth first, and the smile in his wrinkles couldn't deceive anyone.

Chu Liangyu raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm here to find fault!"

"Uh..." Yao Huaiyuan was stunned upon hearing this.When did she promise her descendants to come with her to find fault with the woodcutter?

"I..." Yao Huaiyuan was about to explain, but Chu Liangyu held him in his arms and covered his face, "This is my sister and my wife, you can't look down on me!"

"Is the nobleman here to have fun?" Seeing Chu Liangyu's intention, the young man standing behind the elder fiercely turned two axes and rushed to Chu Liangyu, "Although you guys have no money and power, it's not good to have fun. I found it!"

"What if I insist on looking for my sister?" Chu Liangyu gave the young man a cold look provocatively, and said with malicious intentions, "Tell me, if I really found my sister this time, how can you thank me?"

"Bah!" Seeing the thin figure of the woman sitting on the horseback, without any long things to accompany her, the young man spat on the official road with contempt, "How could you find me!"

"It's not difficult." Chu Liangyu raised his hand to give the young man an ingot of gold, and Chu Liangyu pursed his lips, "I just want to ask a few questions. This matter is related to the lifelong affairs of my wife and I..."

"Oh?" Several woodcutters around looked at the person in Chu Liangyu's arms curiously, "I don't know where the girl snatched the lady? In our great prayer dynasty, except for the emperor, no girl's house dared to look for the girl's house." !"

"Even if the emperor prayed for the head, I, as a citizen, should follow suit, right?" Chu Liangyu covered Yao Huaiyuan's mouth with a smile, and said with a smile: "It's really troublesome to talk so far. Sister, I'll cut to the chase and say …Just now, my sister and Madam made a bet, betting that you are not pitiful in the end... I wonder if you think you are not pitiful?”

"This..." After hearing the woman's words clearly, all the woodcutters didn't know how to answer.

What does it mean to "think yourself poor"?They all live together in the company of fellow countrymen, so what is there to be pitiful or not?

Discussing with Chu Liangyu for a while, the elder at the head bowed and asked Chu Liangyu: "I don't know why madam thinks we are pitiful?"

"Huh?" Leng Mu made a single sound, and Chu Liangyu blamed, "You don't know?"

"Hi!" Dazzled by the arrogance of the man on horseback, the young man threw the gold in his hand and cursed, "Don't answer me. It turns out that the idea of ​​you, little girl, is to insult me. Pooh! This Take the gold back! Although I am a woodcutter, it is not so easy for you to abuse me!"

Embracing Yao Huaiyuan and tilting his head to avoid the gold nuggets thrown by the young man, Chu Liangyu waved his hands with a smile and said, "Hey! Brother, don't blame the good guy...I really came today to make my wife happy..."

"That's right! That girl's wife must think that I am pitiful..." Stroking his shoulder-length beard, the wrinkles under the elder's eyes became deeper, "Although there are not many people in this world who feel that I am pitiful, they will never At least, counting in half with your fingers, the old man is not good at favoring anyone, so the old man can only tell the truth to the nobleman... In this world, there are only two types of people who say that I am pitiful, one is the master, For example, the royal relatives are like a family, and they don’t understand fireworks. These woodcutters never feel that they are contemptible. Speaking of Dali, isn’t chopping firewood the same as farming, and they depend on the sky for food... In recent years, the weather has been good, and the rent is not heavy, and General Chu is very good at guarding the frontier. , the lord of the country is also diligent... Life is good! Although not as rich as those big families, but I want to be happy."

"Really?" Chu Liangyu put Yao Huaiyuan in front of the elder, "Madam is satisfied with the old man's answer?"

"Hmm..." Pursing her lips and looking at Chu Liangyu, Yao Huaiyuan's cheeks turned red, she was the one who made the decision.She shouldn't judge a person poor just by relying on a pair of shoes.

"Hee..." Holding Yao Huaiyuan affectionately, Chu Liangyu turned his head and asked with a smile, "I was rude just now. Forgive me for being rude, but I dare to ask why I still wear straw sandals in October? Could it be that there is no wife at home, or lack of hands?" Silver taels?"

"Hi! You are worrying too much! I was just worried about the rain on the way, so I went on the road in straw sandals. It's only October, and it's still hot when I work! Hahaha!" The young man scratched his head in embarrassment while talking with Chu Liangyu explained.

When Chu Liangyu heard the sound, he laughed and thanked the woodcutters, then rode back.
