[Red Chamber] Dai Yu became the favorite of the Song Dynasty

After Fu Yin received the imperial edict, he had no choice but to let Lu Qingzhou go.

Su Zizhan also warned the governor: "Your Excellency, it is better to be clear about the case in the future, and don't arrest the wrong person!"

The governor was obedient and didn't dare to say anything more.

After several days of deliberation between the monarch and his subjects, the officials and all the officials decided to reject Great Liang's request for marriage.

The government sent chariot generals to lead an army of [-] people to the frontier to meet the enemy. Princess Shangyang stood on the high palace wall and looked at the team. The worried Princess Song!

In addition to foreign aggression, the court is also not in harmony.Someone privately interviewed Su Zizhan to the officials, saying that he used poems to target the new law and satirize the government.

The officials didn't take the participation seriously. He understood Su Zizhan's concerns about the reform, but the Song Dynasty had deep-rooted evils, and it would be difficult to sustain without drastic innovation.

However, more and more officials participated in Su Zizhan, and the officials could only pay more attention to it, and ordered Yushitai to hear the case. ①

Some officials of Yushitai saw that Su Zizhan was not used to it, and wanted to put Su Zizhan to death, put him in Yushitai Prison, and tortured him severely to force him to confess his guilt.

Lu Qingzhou, Ouyang Xiu and others tried their best to rescue Zizhan, and even Wang Anshi pleaded for Su Zizhan in front of the officials.Although he and Su Zizhan had different opinions, they were all for the betterment of Da Song, not enemies. ②

Daiyu was still on the sick bed, and was very anxious when she knew that Su Zizhan was arrested and imprisoned.When she came to Song Dynasty, the two people she admired the most were Yan Shu and Zizhan. Now that Yan Shu is gone, she must save Su Zizhan!

Daiyu asked her elder brother and sister-in-law to take her to the gate of the palace, and she handed over the entry and exit card given to her by the Shangguan's family to the guards, and entered the palace smoothly.

Seeing that Princess Xiaoxiang was so weak that she couldn't even walk steadily, the guards were afraid that something might happen to her, so they arranged for a sedan chair to drive her to the official's house.

"Your Majesty, please let Zizhan go!" Daiyu knelt down to the official.

The officials couldn't bear it, she hadn't recovered from her serious injury, and she was still injured to save Kai'er: "Come here, give the princess a seat!"

"Yes!" The inner officer hurriedly carried the chair to Daiyu.

Daiyu refused to sit down, she wanted to get the official's consent.

Seeing that she was so persistent, the officials told her: "Do you know that Su Zizhan's article really said something disrespectful?"

Zizhan is bold and unrestrained, and speaks outspokenly, how could Daiyu not know: "Zizhan is devoted to serving the country, even if there is some inappropriateness, please forgive me, his crime is not worthy of death!"

The official family knew in their hearts that some people wanted Su Zizhan to die and some people wanted him to live: "I know, you don't have to worry about this, the important thing is to take care of yourself. Go home first." The official family ordered Daiyu to be sent Go back to Lin's house.

Qingzhao and his wife also came to look for Daiyu: "What did the officials say?"

Daiyu shook her head: "If you say it, you don't say it." The king's heart is unpredictable, and to ridicule the court is to feel sorry for the Holy Majesty.

No one knows what officials really think.

A few days later, Lu Qingzhou brought back the news that His Majesty ordered Su Zizhan to be exonerated from death and relegated to be Deputy Envoy of Huangzhou Tuanlian.

Su Zizhan, who was demoted for the second time, was not disheartened. He knew that the catastrophe had affected many relatives and friends, and he was lucky to be alive.

A few days later, Su Zizhan went to Huangzhou, and Daiyu and others came to see him off.

"You haven't recovered yet, so why come to see me off." Su Zizhan couldn't bear to see Daiyu's description of being thin.

Daiyu pretended to be relaxed: "I'm not here to see you off, I'm here to see Madam." She prepared a pack of homemade snacks and stuffed them into Madam Su's hand: "Madam, don't dislike my craftsmanship!"

Mrs. Su took over Daiyu's burden: "The princess's craftsmanship is the first in Tokyo. I am blessed, but if I want to eat it again in the future, it will be rare."

Su Zizhan didn't like his wife's sad words: "How do you know that there is no food in Huangzhou? Maybe it's better than the princess's craftsmanship, the princess said, right?"

Daiyu: "Your Excellency is right, both of you can grow up white and fat. I will visit you if I have the chance in the future."

Su Zizhan and his wife thanked Daiyu for her kindness.

Lu Qingzhou is a man with a stupid mouth and doesn't know what to say, but he and Su Zizhan are close friends who have known each other for many years.Su Zizhan also saw his reluctance: "You can come to see us with the princess in the future. By the way, I want to drink your wedding wine earlier!"

Lu Qingzhou: "Don't worry, this glass of wine is indispensable to you. Take care from now on, take care of yourself and your wife."

Su Zizhan promised: "I will learn a lot from a pit, I will take care of it, and there will be a period later!"

Daiyu and Qingzhou were still waving as the carriage carrying the Su family drifted away. In fact, they all knew that with Zizhan's heart, it might be a good thing to leave the center of the stormy struggle, at least there would be less danger.

"Go home, you shouldn't be so worried." Lu Qingzhou supported Daiyu, wanting to send her home.

"Zizhan left, and suddenly became much deserted."

"He is a lively person, and I hope he can bring the excitement to other places." Lu Qingzhou sighed.

Recently, Wang Anyi often came to see Daiyu, and mentioned her brother intentionally or unintentionally: "My brother has written another excellent poem, let me read it to you?" It aroused Daiyu's attention to Wang Anshi.

But Daiyu was just out of politeness: "All ears."

"A plum tree in front of Baiyutang blooms for whoever falls. Only the spring breeze cherishes each other the most, and it returns once a year."③

Daiyu: "My lord Wang is a poet, I feel ashamed of myself."

Wang Anyi: "You are being modest. Who doesn't know that you are a famous talented woman. A talented woman deserves a talented man..."

Before Wang Anyi finished speaking, Qingzhao stopped her and said, "Daiyu has her own heart, and a talented woman should be a hero!"

Wang Anyi knew what Qingzhao was referring to, but she still wanted Daiyu to be her sister-in-law.

Daiyu told Wang Anyi directly: "Qingzhou and I have long cherished each other, and your wishful thinking may come to nothing."

Wang Anyi was dissatisfied: "Lu Qingzhou's official position is so low, how can my brother have a bright future? You are the princess, and the officials will definitely not agree."

"The officials can't control me."

"I don't believe it. Marriage is not up to you. You must be appointed by the officials."

Li Qingzhao felt that Wang Anyi was long-winded: "You are a girl, what are you doing with these nosy things, and your own life's important things are settled?"

Wang Anyi was speechless, she had never thought about her own affairs, in her eyes, her brother was her god, and she only wanted to settle him down.

On the other side, Wang Anshi was busy with government affairs all day long, and he didn't even know that his sister was planning for his life's event, and it was the Princess Xiaoxiang who he couldn't even imagine.

"Brother, you are already an extremely human minister, why don't you get married?"

"What's the rush? You see, I'm so busy every day. I don't have time to think about such things."

"That won't work, my parents are gone, I have to think more about you."

Wang Anshi deliberately teased his younger sister: "Is it because you want to get married, so you have to settle my matter first? Tell brother, which son do you like?"

Wang Anyi didn't expect to get angry: "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about. I'm discussing with you seriously. What do you think of Daiyu?"

"Nature is a peerless beauty."

"Why don't you marry and come back home?" Wang Anyi asked naively.

Wang Anshi almost spat out the sip of tea he just drank: "Marry the princess?"

"Yup!"

"Your brother and I don't have this blessing."

"Why not? You are the prime minister, why not Princess Shang?"

Wang Anshi smiled at his younger sister who was still ignorant: "Do you know Daiyu's favor? His Majesty tried to accept her as a concubine back then, but he failed. Am I more powerful than Your Majesty?"

Wang Anyi didn't know there was such a thing as an official family, and her heart turned cold: "So I'm daydreaming. Then why does Daiyu have a crush on Lu Qingzhou? Could it be that he is more powerful than the official family?"

"Master Lu is a man of culture and martial arts, with a chivalrous heart, and a deep relationship with Daiyu, which may not be comparable to that of an official. Besides, how can power and status control things like feelings? Back then, when the Han family was in power, Mr. Lu You didn't marry Han Yiyi because of this, did you?"

Wang Anyi knew what her brother said was reasonable, but she was not reconciled, where could she find a good sister-in-law in the future?

"You, just be your Miss Wang family, you don't need to worry about these things." Wang Anshi told his sister.

Since then, Wang Anyi has gradually dispelled the idea of ​​making Daiyu her sister-in-law, but she still dislikes Lu Qingzhou. How is this guy better than her brother?

After nearly a month of recuperation, Daiyu recovered as before. So far, no one knows why Daiyu can heal herself from the poison that all the imperial physicians are helpless?

The simple and honest Mrs. Lin and Uncle Lin can only think that it is the reward of their daughter's kindness, which is blessed by God!

In order to thank the gods and Buddhas, Aunt Lin specially took Daiyu to the temple to offer incense.

After offering incense, Daiyu wandered around in the temple. This was the first time she entered the temple in her life. People came and went, and the incense was in full swing.Suddenly someone behind her called her: "Miss Lin?"

Daiyu turned around and saw Mr. Zhou who had treated Qingzhou's face before: "Sir, why are you here?"

Mr. Zhou stroked his long beard: "I am a good friend with the abbot of this temple. Let's come to see him. I look like a girl from a distance. I didn't expect to see him here."

"Mr. can't be seen for sure. It's really rare to see him. We haven't had time to repay the kindness of Mr. last time. Why don't you go home with me, and I will cook you a table of side dishes!"

"I've heard that the head chef of Xiaoxiang County is excellent. I really want to try it! Hahaha, but I have to meet the host first. Why don't you mother and daughter come with me?"

Aunt Lin is a devout believer. As soon as she heard that she could meet the host, she immediately agreed.

The host was a kind old monk named Jingyi, who exchanged pleasantries with Mr. Zhou, and Mr. Zhou introduced Daiyu and Mrs. Lin to him: "This is the princess of Xiaoxiang personally appointed by the Holy Majesty, and that is the princess Mother, Mrs. Lin."

Master Jingyi: "I've seen the princess! I've seen my wife!" He raised his head and glanced at Daiyu, his expression changed from calm to puzzled.

Mr. Zhou: "I won't talk to you today, I'm going to the princess's house to taste delicious food."

Master Jingyi: "You just go." When the group was about to leave, Master Jingyi said again: "Can the princess stay and say a few words?"
