Return to the rumor

After Cao Zhen was taken into custody for trial, Tangci asked Wang Ke to tell him in detail about Liangzhou's opening of warehouses to release grain and transfer of millet to save the people.

With Cao Zhen's lessons learned, Wang Ke did not dare to slack off. He said one thing and another about Tang Ci, almost expressing his determination to go bankrupt and live together with the Huzhou disaster victims.

After discussing it, Wang Ke immediately found someone to do it.One is to run to the commander of the capital and send soldiers to the outskirts of Liangzhou to invite the victims who were previously hidden by Cao Zhen in the wilderness to return to Liangzhou.The second is that the Salesian Home cannot accommodate them, so they first mobilize thick military tents and winter jackets, etc., and distribute them for the temporary residence of the victims.The third is the opening of granaries, distribution of supply by household, and suppression of rice prices in Liangzhou.The fourth is the allocation of funds from the imperial court. If the victims of the disaster need it, they can go to Liangzhou chief envoy to collect the funeral expenses after verification, and arrange the funeral for the unfortunate relatives.Fifth, the Liangzhou Third Division sent people to Huzhou immediately to rebuild houses for the victims, and pre-arranged money to encourage Huzhou refugees to return to their homes after the disaster eased.

Orders and prohibitions were enforced, and the city of Liangzhou was orderly.

At the right time, Xiong Heng led his troops back from outside the city and brought back the good news that the disaster situation in Huzhou had been suppressed and the people's hearts had been temporarily comforted. Everyone was overjoyed.

It is a sunny day, the sky is clear, the weather is clear and the wind is smooth.

The warm autumn sun spread across the earth, and the sun was warm and yellow. The faces of the people who came to receive the rice also showed sincere and happy smiles. They praised the court one by one, and unconsciously involved their parents in their conversations. He laughed loudly when he talked about the interesting things, which somewhat dispelled the haze of fear and fear that had shrouded his heart for days.

Tang Ci and Rou Ke came back from patrolling the city. In order not to disturb the people who lined up to collect rice, they were about to enter the mansion quietly through a side door, but they saw a small and delicate figure struggling to hold a wooden ladle in both hands from afar. Running in the queue to distribute rice grains to the people, his steps were unsteady.

Tang Ci's brows could not help but frown, and casually ordered an attendant to take her back to the mansion.

Needless to say, that little girl was Yu Xiaoyu who was brought to the Xu Mansion by Tang Ci and Rou Ke yesterday. Xu Qian heard the intentions of the two of them, and said very straightforwardly, "You can choose whether you control food, live or teach." ——I, Xu Qian, have always been a plum wife and a crane son. Is it not easy to feed a child with a big family?It's just that I have no time to care about what she will look like in the future.

Before Tang Ci could say anything, Rou Ke immediately took Yu Xiaoyu away when she heard the words, very protective of the calf.

Not long after, Yu Xiaoyu stood awkwardly in front of the two of them, clutching the hem of his clothes, his left foot touched the ground, and stood staggeringly.

"The foot injury is still not healed, so you should stay in the mansion and have a good rest, don't you understand?" Tang Ci held a paperweight in his hand, which was made of rosewood and pitch-black, which was very intimidating.

Yu Xiaoyu didn't know whether she was frightened or exhausted, she leaned slightly, and then she was steadied by Rou Ke, she bent her eyes and smiled at her, stood upright again, and then bid farewell to Tang. She replied childishly: "Our Yu family doesn't eat rice. Brothers and sisters, you gave me something to eat, gave me a place to live, and punished the big corrupt officials. I want to do something for you. This is called—" She Tilting his head and thinking for a while, a pair of big eyes burst into light, "Relief with work!"

Tong Yan Tong Yu, although a little silly, but revealing a rare simplicity and kindness.

Tang Ci weighed the paperweight in his hand with a smile that was not a smile, Yu Xiaoyu couldn't help but timidly took half a step back, and the next moment he heard the beautiful little brother in front of him say in harmony: "Do everything according to your ability, if you don't care about yourself Not good, you still have to help others, and then others will have to worry about you and take care of you. Distributing rice and grain has its own servants to handle, but you are a child, and you are still a child with injuries, and you know the duty of a child What is it?"

Yu Xiaoyu nodded, then shook his head again.

"Snapped--"

Yu Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat, and he closed his eyes tightly. After a while, he opened his eyes slowly due to the unexpected pain.

Tang Ci laid out the paper and pressed it with a paperweight. Seeing that she was frightened, she smiled again, waved to her, and said, "Come here, can you write?"

The limping appearance was really worrying, Rou Ke went over and hugged Yu Xiaoyu on her lap, took a brush from the pen stand, and handed it to her after it was full of ink, and did not forget to say goodbye to Tang Gouged out a light look.

"Ah Wei, your heart is really biased. How come I was scolded and punished by my mother when I was young, and you just stood aside and covered your mouth and snickered? Now I haven't said a word of cruelty to Xiaoyu. "Tang Ci was very aggrieved, so wronged that he stretched out his finger to hook Rou Ke's little finger, shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking until Rou Ke completely ignored her, and taught Yu Xiaoyu to hold the pen on his own, saying softly: " Can you write? Write a few and show them to your brothers and sisters?"

Yu Xiaoyu looked at Tangci, then at Rouke. Yu Xiaoyu looked at the hopes and expectations in their eyes, lowered his head and thought about it carefully, intending to find the most pleasing words, When he had an idea, he grinned and grinned, holding a pen jerky and clumsily dragging out the four crooked characters on the paper - "a match made in heaven".

Adhering to the principle of not hurting the child's self-motivation, Tangci suppressed her laughter when she saw the words that looked like earthworms crawling snakes, touched her head, and asked with a tense corner of her mouth, "Why did you write this?" She thought, Yu Xiaoyu should have written his own name.

Rou Ke was also curious and looked at her.

Yu Xiaoyu sat on Rou Ke's lap, with Tang Ci on the left hand side and Rou Ke on the right hand side. She recalled what she heard when distributing rice today, looked and looked between the two of them, her head turned like a rattle, Although he was full of puzzles, he still answered bravely: "Many uncles and aunts who received rice were whispering with their ears and mouths together. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I heard them clearly. They said that you are a man and a woman, and you are a match made in heaven. I understand the looks of a talented girl, but—" Yu Xiaoyu looked at Tang Ci and found that she was blushing, and then looked at Rou Ke, and found that her face was even redder. Not to mention that her little face was also inexplicably dyed pink, "Brother and sister, what do you mean by a match made in heaven?"

A match made in heaven means destined to match.

Rou Ke was agitated by these simple four words, a little bit of joy, a little bit of embarrassment, a little bit of panic, a little bit of uneasy expectation, a little bit of embarrassment that cut to the heart, with mixed feelings Mixed together, she was almost out of breath, her cheeks were so red and hot.He lowered his head and didn't dare to answer, and naturally he couldn't see the forbearance in Tang Ci's eyes looking at him.

After a long while, it was Tang Ci who finally mediated the situation. She got up and hugged Yu Xiaoyu in her arms, walked out of the house, and said to her: "'Heavenly supervisor is under me, there is a destiny, and King Wen first recorded it, a match made in heaven', these words From "Three Hundred Poems". I'll go look for books with you, choose a few to read briefly, rest when I'm tired, and call you when I'm having dinner, okay?"

People go to empty houses.

Rou Ke sat silently in the original position, with her back straight and her tassels hanging down gently, her light white clothes matched her thin shoulders, just when the sun was covering the sky outside the window, the room was dark, and the whole back revealed a sense of desolation and loneliness .

After a long time, she sighed in a low voice.

"Ah Yue... shouldn't I have thought about you this way?"

Xindu.

Lu He claimed sick leave today and lay on the bed all day.

Why did Yiyang fall in love with her?How much did Yiyang understand after receiving Yujue?With her domineering temperament, what would she do if she would rather die than obey?Then I thought about Yiyang's greetings to her in the past few days, which made her condescend to her, saying that it was a lie to say that she would not be touched, but... Lu He thought that she didn't have any extra thoughts about Yiyang, she just wanted to follow her husband's instructions, one step at a time Take your own way of revenge step by step, and get your mother and sister out of the backcountry of Qianzhou as soon as possible, and make your father under the nine springs avenged as soon as possible. Don't let your husband teach you down.

As he was thinking about it, there were suddenly chattering voices outside the house.

Lu □□ pushed the door open with all his hands and feet, his face was full of red, and Ruan Niang was following behind, but he was holding a bowl in his hand, which was steaming hot, and he didn't know what it was.

When Ruan Niang approached, Lu He had already put on his boots and socks and got off the bed. When he went over to see, it was a bowl of ginseng tea.

Lu Shiba and Ruan Niang were reluctant to spend money to buy this tonic, so they knew it was sent by Yiyang without thinking.

The dark brown soup was reflected in Lu He's eyes, which made her feel more irritable, she frowned and remained silent.

Seeing this, Ruan Niang hurriedly put the ginseng tea on the table, stretched out her hand to touch Lu He's forehead, and compared it with her own forehead, she was relieved and said with a smile: "Did you eat too much last night, accumulated food? The same goes for Her Royal Highness, who ordered people to send some cloth and satin, sea cucumber shark fin and warm clothes every now and then, no——you asked for a day off, and she hurriedly sent many supplements, some of which I have never even heard of. .”

Glancing at the clothes on Ruan Niang and Lu Shiba, they were all made of luxurious materials, and Lu He couldn't help looking at Lu Shiba who was sitting on the couch with his legs crossed, and asked, "Uncle Lu, the letter I wrote, can you write it for me?" Have you sent it to Mr.

Ever since he became the minister of the princess mansion, he was often entangled by Yiyang. Lu He was really helpless, so he had to entrust Lu Shiba to send letters to the official post.

Lu Shiba and Ruan Niang glanced at each other, kicked off the cloth shoes, sat cross-legged quietly, and perfunctorily said without raising their heads, "I've sent it."

Lu He, who noticed the difference between the two, couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and his voice was already a bit cold: "Uncle Lu, you and I are already grasshoppers on the same boat. I want to tell you that the matter with Mr. is very important, you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Shiba snatched it away shamelessly: "Come on, I'm illiterate, but I'm not a fool. What good is there for you to offend the princess? Don't drag us into the water together." !" The implication is that Lu He's letter was given to people who can read in advance, and then intercepted privately.

"You really—!" Lu He was so angry that he was almost speechless, and after only a few days, Lu Shiba was instigated to turn against him.

Ruan Niang hurriedly came over to persuade Lu He: "Oh, you are also stupid! It's a good thing that Her Royal Highness likes you. I have heard a lot of rumors in the capital these days. Why did Emperor Yingzong abolish the empress for a few male pets? Killing his wife, the former emperor and the current emperor turned against each other because of a woman, and Princess Huaisi committed suicide by drinking poisonous wine because of the daughter-in-law Di Lan——those who dare to love the royal family are all lovers! If you win the heart of His Royal Highness, It’s bound to get twice the result with half the effort!” Seeing Lu He’s gloomy face and no response, Ruan Niang continued, “Aren’t you determined to seek revenge on Hu Laiyan? I didn’t know that in Yunzhou before, but I’ve heard a lot about him recently. Say—it's hard to do it alone!"

Lu Shiba was a man who saw every bit of time, so he hurriedly added: "Ms. Ruan is right! The first few times your husband and she wrote to you, it was just for you to take the opportunity to get close to the princess, to please her. Do you want her to like you? How come things are getting halfway right now, but you are going to be a coward? Anyway, if you women marry women, you have nothing to lose, right? "

Lu He was about to open his mouth to argue, but only heard the sound of breaking the door——
