Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

After dinner, Meng Yi came again.

Shui Rong went to Wangyun Zhai to discuss matters with him.Daiyu talked casually with Concubine Side and Dunhui, and returned to the courtyard after a while.

Xiyue, Hanyan, Luling, and Ziping are enjoying the coolness in the courtyard, while Liu Ye'er, Chunying, and Aimei are playing and laughing in the ear room.Du Tongyun stayed in the main hall, watching the candlelight in the room, sitting on the embroidery pier, doing needlework.

Daiyu entered the room and said, "It seems that you are the second Xiyue."

Tong Yun got up quickly, and said with a smile: "Everyone here praises Sister Xiyue, we dare not compare."

Daiyu said: "In my opinion, each of you has your own interests." Her body was aching, and she didn't want to move when she sat down.

Several big maids who were enjoying the shade in the courtyard came into the house, Daiyu looked at them and said: "Leave those who are on duty, let's go to rest. There are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."

Now only Ziping and Tongyun are left.Ziping boiled water, Daiyu soaked her feet comfortably, and Tongyun squeezed her shoulders for her, immediately the discomfort on her body decreased a lot.

Just looking at the clock in the hall, the time is a bit late, thinking about what is a confidential matter that needs to be discussed until now, and then thinking that Xueyan is still pregnant, shouldn't Meng Yi, the husband, go back to accompany his wife earlier? ?

After another half a quarter of an hour, Shui Rong came back.Daiyu had already changed to a white mid laner, but she was still holding on and didn't rest.Shui Rong walked behind him, took out a bead hairpin inlaid with south beads from his sleeve, handed it to Daiyu, and said with a smile: "I didn't prepare any special gift for you, I hope you like it."

Daiyu then took the hairpin, looked at it carefully, and said, "Thank you."

Shui Rong took out another folding fan and showed it to Daiyu: "Yu'er, look at the calligraphy and painting on it, it's really nice. It was also given to me by someone else. Thinking you like this small script, let me give it to you."

Daiyu only glanced at it briefly, then curled her lips and said, "I don't know what stinky man has used it, I don't care for it. If you think it's good, you can keep it."

I heard about water soluble, so I won't mention it.

Daiyu was grinding the rouge, and asked Shui Rong: "What's the secret between you and Meng Changshi? At this point."

Shui Rong said: "I entrust him to deal with the messy troublesome things. Let's take a break first, and we have to go to court early in the morning. Now that the new emperor is in power, it's the first time for me to go to court. There can't be any mistakes. I will go to court this afternoon. When the palace reported the situation, the emperor looked unhappy."

When Daiyu heard about it, she put away the things in her hands and came to serve Shui Rong to sleep.Thinking of the hardships he had endured outside in the past few months, he felt sad for a while, and he was upset when he returned home, so he asked, "Did something happen?"

Shui Rong lay down, still lying outside, this is his habit, if Daiyu needs anything at night, he can get out of bed immediately, so it is better to instruct the servant girl less often.Although the matter is small, Daiyu's feelings are deep, it's hard for him to be such a thoughtful and thoughtful person.But tonight Daiyu said to him: "My lord, lie down inside. If I want to get up at night, I won't disturb my lord."

Shui Rong pulled her onto the bed, held her in his arms, combed her hair with his fingers, and said gently: "You are not well, so I should take care of you. You are timid at night, how can you get out of bed? Just tell me what you need."

Daiyu nestled in his arms, and the familiar aura brought her a lot of security. These days when he was gone, she was always in fear.

Daiyu asked him again in a low voice: "If there is anything bothering you, you can talk to me."

Shui Rong squeaked.

The drowsiness didn't seem to be strong, Daiyu opened her eyes again and said to Shui Rong, "Tell me what you have learned during this trip, okay? Just treat it as if I have also traveled a long way."

Shui Rong said: "Northwest is not comparable to the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. Flying sand and rocks, it was still in spring when we arrived, and the wind was very strong. Due to the drought, some cracks in the ground can make people step on the air." The crops have not been harvested this season. Do you know what it means to starve to death? People and livestock are really starved to death. If you don’t appease them, there will be chaos. The emperor also mentioned this , luckily we went in time."

Daiyu smiled in his arms and said: "This time the prince has made meritorious service. When will the emperor reward you for his merits? Let me hear it, and I am happy for the prince."

Shui Rong suddenly fell silent, patted Daiyu's back lightly, and said softly, "Go to sleep."

Daiyu has always been sensitive, and the water-melting hesitation made Daiyu faintly feel something was wrong, she hurriedly broke away from his embrace, lay back on her pillow, and asked him in a low voice: "Is something wrong?"

"It's nothing, don't think too much about it. It's fine."

Daiyu said: "I don't believe it, you are always very forthright when you talk. I said that the emperor wants to reward you for your merits, so you don't answer. If you have done a good job in disaster relief, you should be rewarded."

Shui Rong felt that he couldn't hide it from Daiyu, so he told her, "Something happened, but it hasn't been clarified yet. Maybe your second uncle will be implicated."

Daiyu immediately pricked up her ears.

Shui Rong saw that Daiyu's inquisitive temper was coming up, so she had no choice but to explain to her: "When we got there, we said that we would open a warehouse to release grain, and the common people liked it very much. Something bad happened, saying that the rice was old rice, moldy, and some had a foul smell. You can imagine what happened later, it was your uncle who organized the opening of the warehouse."

Daiyu felt strange, and hurriedly asked: "That means the higher-ups suspected that uncle had done something wrong, and even the prince was implicated. But my uncle has always been a clean official, and it was well-known in the past. The people were so hungry that they couldn't afford to eat. Neither is he."

Shui Rong rested his hands behind his head, stared at the blue tent that day, and said calmly: "This has offended Longyan, and he said that he will be strictly investigated. Now your uncle's official position has been temporarily dismissed."

Although Daiyu didn't pay much attention to these careers and economics, but when it was related to family affairs, Fang felt so troubled, and asked: "Will the emperor make things difficult for the prince?"

Shui Rong smiled wryly: "Who knows. I always feel that this matter is a bit weird, so I asked Meng Yi to bring some people to investigate this matter."

Daiyu raised her head with one hand, half propped her body up and looked at Shui Rong: "One thing I don't quite understand, since there is a drought, how could the grains in the warehouse get moldy? Logically speaking, it wouldn't be so wet."

Shui Rong said: "The local granary is already empty, it is the Daxing warehouse for transportation. There must be a leak in some link. Maybe it was a trick deliberately set up by someone, and we got in without precaution."

The matter in the court hall had nothing to do with the woman in the deep house, but it was related to the future of her uncle and Shui Rong, so she had to worry about it.

Shui Rong looked back and saw her pursing her lips tightly, frowning slightly, leaned over, pecked her lips lightly, and said softly: "Don't think too much, go to sleep."

So he got out of bed and blew out the candle on the stage.

It was pitch black in the tent, and Daiyu couldn't sleep well because of tossing and turning.Shui Rong hadn't fallen asleep yet, so he held her hand in the dark and said, "Isn't your body feeling well? Do you need some medicine? I called someone."

Daiyu said in a muffled voice, "No, no need."

Shui Rong understood a little bit in his heart: "I'm afraid you will worry, that's why I don't want to tell you these things. These are men's affairs, you don't need to worry about them."

Daiyu said: "Originally they are husband and wife. Shouldn't I ask about what's wrong with my husband? You don't feel well if you're bored all day long. If one more person knows, maybe one more idea."

Shui Rong hugged her shoulders with a smile, and whispered in Daiyu's ear: "Do you remember the promise I made to you before? As long as I am here, I will definitely protect you. I was able to protect you before, but now we We are one body, so we should protect you. Don’t worry too much about these troublesome things. I have me. Naturally, I trust your uncle. If someone really set it up, there will always be loopholes in the middle. Check it a few times. Then I will understand."

Daiyu thought that Shui Rong must be feeling depressed at this time, and she probably didn't sleep well these days, so she closed her eyes and slept peacefully in order to prevent him from worrying about herself.

Not long after, Shui Rong felt relieved when he heard her slight snoring.He thought about these troublesome things again, and he had to go to court tomorrow morning, and this matter would inevitably be mentioned in front of all the ministers, whether it was life or death, that was the end of it.

It didn't take long before I closed my eyes, Tong Yun came in and urged: "My lord, it's time to get up and go to court early."

Shui Rong groaned in a daze, feeling drowsy, but could only forcefully slap his body and sit up.There was still a blur outside the screen window, and the red clouds lit up the candles.Immediately afterwards, Xiyue also came in, and opened the closet to find a boa robe for Shui Rong to wear.

Shui Rong looked back at his wife who was still asleep, and saw that she was lying face down, with a bunch of black hair dragging by the pillow, and a snow-white arm was exposed, it seemed that she was sleeping deeply, Shui Rong didn't intend to put her wake.Although it was summer, it was a bit chilly in the morning and evening, Shui Rong pulled the quilt, covered her arms, leaned down again, and kissed her ear lightly.

Xiyue was not surprised, she just pretended she didn't see it, Tongyun came not long ago, she didn't know the sweetness between their husband and wife, she suddenly caught a glimpse of this scene, her face became hot and she stayed there.

Until Xiyue said to Tong Yun: "Go fetch water, don't bring it in."

Tong Yun regained his composure and hurried away.

Xiyue changed clothes for Shui Rong, tiptoed to button him up, and said in a low voice, "Is the prince coming back very late again today?"

"I don't know, there are still a few things to be done, maybe I'll be back when I'm done." I went to the outside room to freshen up, drank half a cup of strong tea, and almost ate two yuan, and then told Xiyue a few words, Facing the slightly dewy morning sun and stepping on the fresh dew, I strode out of the courtyard.

Liu'er and the others had already prepared their horses, and their entourage were all ready, and when the water was dissolved, they were divided into two rows and stood at the base of the wall with their heads down.
