Lady Ling Dang took Ling Dang to the backyard. Just as she was about to enter, she saw Shan Er standing guard at the door with a red face and an oil bag in his hand. As soon as she saw Ling Dang, she quickly stuffed the oil bag into Ling Dang's hand and said
: "It's what's left today. I thought Ling Dang liked it last time, so I brought it to Ling Dang. Don't dislike it!"
"Thank you, uncle!" Lingdang happily took it and opened the oil bag to look at it.
Lady Lingdang said sheepishly: "You always bother, but in fact there are all in the house. Miss Renyi, there is no shortage of her!"
Shan Er smiled sheepishly, touched his head, lowered his head and looked at his feet and said: "Anyway, it's the rest... Then you eat first, I'll leave first!"
Lady Bell nodded and thanked her again.
"Mom, look, it's roast chicken, it's very oily!" Ling Dang tore off the chicken legs and gave them to Ling Dang's mother to eat.
"I won't eat. I was full just now. You can eat!" Ling Dang's mother touched Ling Dang's head and looked back at Shan Er gratefully.
Ever since Lady Ling Dang said that someone was following her, Chu Yiqing asked Lei Yuan to pay extra attention.
After Chu Yiqing came back, the shopkeepers of several shops under Huafu came to visit him in turn, and each handed over their account books and profits. Chu Yiqing worked for a few more days, and on the seventh day, Guo Huai sent someone to send a message from Zhujiazui
Come to think of it, seeing that the rice was almost done, let Chu Yiqing take a look to see if it was time to harvest. Don’t waste time. Chu Yiqing put down his work and rushed to Zhujiazui early in the morning.
Look at the ears that were green and yellow a few days ago, but they have turned golden in the past few days. The ears of rice are also bent, drooping, and swinging heavily in the wind. They are not mature! Fortunately, Guo Huai has been taking care of them these days.
There were people waiting here, everything was almost ready, and they immediately decided to start harvesting.
Seeing that the rice that they had worked hard for several months could finally be harvested, the villagers were all working hard. Each person had a sickle, stepping on the mud with bare feet, looking at the heavy ears with curiosity, and talking about selling the rice.
Plans for the future.
"Brother Dong, now all three of your children will be able to marry guests!"
"No, we're all optimistic about it, and we're just waiting to sell the rice to the girl's family!"
"My child can also go to school. I plan to let him go to the city to study!"
"Your child has a bright future!"
…
Although Chu Yiqing could not hear the unique accent of Lucheng, she could understand the joy and longing on the farmers' faces. Looking at the harvested bundles of rice, she was also sincerely happy from the bottom of her heart.
There were no tools for mortaring rice here in Lucheng, so Chu Yiqing asked the generals in Lucheng to make 200 mortars according to the mortars he had made before. They placed them all in Zhujiazui, waiting to be dried and then mortared into rice.
"Miss Chu, drink some water. This is tea made from mountain spring water. It's very delicious!" Zhu Yongfa stepped forward with a smile, carrying a big-bellied teapot, and took out a large porcelain bowl from the basket behind him.
Pour a bowl of tea for Chu Yiqing.
Chu Yiqing thanked him, took the tea and tasted it, and immediately felt refreshed.
"This mountain spring is really a treasure. Now the well in the mouth is idle. We all go to the mountain spring to get water to drink. The water is sweeter than that well!" Zhu Yongfa said with a smile.
Chu Yiqing suddenly thought of something, turned his eyes and asked Yingqian: "Last time in Lucheng, did you also use this water to make tea in the mansion?"
Yingqian smiled and said: "Miss drank it? Isn't it right? That day, the slave took a sip of the sweetness and took some back in an earthen pot. Seeing that the lady liked it, she asked Dan Er to come and get some every day!"
Chu Yiqing remembered that his body seemed to be particularly light in those days, and he immediately said: "These days, I still want to drink tea brewed with this water, and give some to A Bao and Hua Lin. This kind of mountain spring water is generally rich in nutrients.
!”
Yingqian quickly responded, saying that she must remember to take more with her before leaving.
When the village women who came to deliver water saw what Chu Yiqing said, they immediately became convinced that the water had magical properties, and they all said that they would use this water for cooking in the future.
Because it was the first time to grow rice, many people didn’t understand it. Chu Yiqing had to teach Guo Huai first and then let him teach others. So in the next few days, Chu Yiqing directly took A Bao to Zhujiazui.
Naturally, Ling Dang Niang and Ling Dang also came to serve them, so they didn't have to run back and forth. After working like this for seven or eight days, half of the rice was finally harvested and dried on the field. In the remaining days, Chu Yiqing took care of people.
Dividing the rice into two batches, one for drying and one for harvesting, saves thousands of acres of rice from all being piled up in one place.
The two main houses inside the not-so-high fence are where Chu Yiqing and A Bao live in Zhujiazui. This is the original yard of Lingdang's family. Ling Dang and Ling Dang still live in the backyard. At this time, they are running around in the yard.
A few hens were digging for food under a gourd shelf. The gourd leaves were thick and they climbed up the shelf in a zigzag manner, creating a nice shade. Under the gourd shelf, Abao found a few from nowhere.
They dug some wet mud into the earthen pot and planted grass and wild flowers from the fields in it. Bells were ringing on the side, and their faces looked like little tabby cats. Chu Yiqing was sitting on a wicker chair nearby.
She had her eyes closed, and there were some reeds beside her. In the small hut next to the two main rooms, through the open door, Jin Yu was burning a fire.
Fresh fragrance.
"Miss, it's already past the Dragon Boat Festival, why do you think of making rice dumplings to eat?" Jin Yu stuck her head out and said with a smile, "In the past, these rice dumplings were made of millet. This time, they are made of rice. Is it delicious?"
Chu Yiqing opened his eyes and smiled: "It is authentic to make rice dumplings. There was no rice before, so we had to use millet. Smell this smell, it is really fragrant!"
As soon as Chu Yiqing finished speaking, the little tabby cat lying on the fence seemed to smell the fragrance, jumped down with a glance, walked to Chu Yiqing's feet and rubbed it, looking like it was trying to please him.
Chu Yiqing was about to hug the kitten, when suddenly, the tabby cat grinned at it in an offensive position and purred.
Chu Yiqing followed the tabby cat's gaze and saw a swallow's nest under the eaves. A strong black swallow was looking down at the powerful tabby cat and flapped its wings twice, as if to counterattack.
The little tabby cat immediately looked like it was facing a formidable enemy. It whined louder and the fur on its body exploded further. The bell girl heard the cat meow and quickly came out of the house, kicked it and cursed:
"Stay away, don't scare the young lady and Master Abao!"
The little cat whimpered and obediently took back its fur, but did not roll away. Instead, it hid at Chu Yiqing's feet and started acting coquettishly.
Seeing its docile look, Chu Yiqing couldn't help but stroke the fur on its body and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm not afraid of cats!"
Lady Lingdang then went back to light the fire. While lighting the fire, she pulled herself up and said to Chu Yiqing: "This is the cat raised by Tietou's guest. After Tietou's accident, the guest left without saying a word.
Even this house was sold to a person from Youzuizi (a neighboring village of Zhujiazui). Fortunately, the village chief asked someone to send me a message and I bought it back from that person!" Jin Yu sighed while looking at the cat.
He said, "Tietou doesn't even have a son or a half. The old Zhu family is considered to be the last in this generation!"
"Don't be sad. That woman is someone who can't hold on. It doesn't matter if she leaves. You buy these two houses and come and see them when you want to come back. After all, they are your home!" Chu Yiqing
Smiling while stroking the cat's gentle fur.
Lady Lingdang nodded, her mood seemed to be better now. She hurriedly peeled the peas, washed the cucumbers, eggplants, lotus roots and other vegetables, and got busy in the kitchen.
Chu Yiqing then closed his eyes again, letting A Bao and Ling Dang play with the mud and enjoy the noon time after a rare harvest.
After a while, the food was cooked, and the rice dumplings in the pot were almost the same. Lady Ling Ding took the rice dumplings out, peeled them off and let them cool, then neatly cleared the table and put the rice bowls on them.
Abao and Lingdang had already smelled the fragrance and gathered around them. Chu Yiqing rushed to wash his hands before giving each of them a cool rice dumpling. Looking at the two of them eating their faces, Chu Yiqing looked like a little cat.
Qing couldn't help but giggle, and threw the peeled off rice dumpling leaves to the little cat that had been surrounding her feet. The little cat whimpered, and immediately stepped forward to lick it, while licking it and licking it with a pair of black hands.
Liu Liu looked at Chu Yiqing with her eyes.
Just as he was happy, Lei Yuan strode into the courtyard with a cold expression, stepped forward and whispered: "Miss, something big has happened!"
Chu Yiqing was stunned and asked: "But the rice shipped to the city was robbed?"
Lei Yuan quickly shook his head, "No, miss, it's..." Lei Yuan hesitated for a moment and whispered: "The emperor issued another imperial edict!"
"Imperial decree?" Chu Yiqing was stunned. Now that the oil shortage has been solved and the country is at peace, what does the old emperor want to do?
"I sent someone to send a message, saying that the emperor has issued an imperial edict and is now on the way to Chu Han. In the edict, the emperor wants... to ask the young lady to choose a husband and get married before the end of the year!" Lei Yuan finally struggled.
finished his speech.
Yingqian, who had gone out to deliver water, happened to come back. When she heard this, she couldn't help shouting: "What did you say? Choose a husband? Who chooses a husband?"
Lei Yuan quickly pulled Yingqian to prevent her from continuing to ask. He turned his eyes and looked at Chu Yiqing uneasily and whispered: "That's what the person sent by me said!"
Chu Yiqing was also stunned, and it took him a long time to recover. He couldn't help but sneered: "This emperor is really afraid that my reputation is not famous enough!"
This woman from the Li Kingdom kept her cover up before getting married, fearing that if the marriage failed, people would make irresponsible remarks. She waited until the marriage was consummated before announcing to the outside world, where has the entire Li Kingdom gone for so many years?
There is a woman who chooses a husband, and the emperor does this to make it clear that he wants to embarrass her!
Lei Yuan whispered: "Miss, it's better not to go back yet. If those people can't find Miss, they won't be able to declare the decree. As I said, he is already thinking of ways to make Miss believe in him!"
Chu Yiqing hesitated for a moment. Just when he didn't know what to do, he saw another carriage coming outside the door. The driver was Liu Er. As soon as he saw Chu Yiqing, he said: "Oh, Miss Chu, our master
After searching for you for several days, I finally found you!"
Before Liu Er finished speaking, Shangguan Yu had already opened the curtain and got out of the car. Not caring about the sweat all over his body, he walked into the small courtyard and whispered: "What happened? Why did the emperor..."
"So you've heard about it too?" Chu Yiqing reluctantly raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile.
"You can still laugh. I also found someone in the palace to find out this news in every possible way. I just wanted to inform you as soon as possible!" Shangguan Yu couldn't help but said anxiously.
"Thank you, Boss Shangguan, for coming all the way from the capital on such a hot day!" Chu Yiqing said gratefully.
"You and I have been friends for so many years, why do you need to say these words!" Shangguan Yu said displeased, glanced at Chu Yiqing pitifully, and then said: "Is he sorry for you? If so, you must tell me
,I……"
The words in his mouth were just on his lips. Perhaps thinking of his current identity, Shangguan Yu didn't say those words after all. He just stretched out his arm and patted Chu Yiqing's shoulder gently. Thousands of words were all there.
That concern is in action.
"He is also in a dilemma. After all, that person is the emperor and his father!" Chu Yiqing laughed softly, then looked at the rice dumplings on the table and said with a smile: "Boss Shangguan, you came just in time, I happened to make the rice dumplings.
, it’s made of new rice, try it!”
Shangguan Yu whispered: "Are you still in the mood to eat rice dumplings at this time?"
Chu Yiqing ignored him and went straight into the house.
Shangguan Yu stood in the yard, looking at the woman in front of him who was pretending to be happy. He pulled out a bunch of rice dumplings from the steaming pot and put them in the wooden basin. From time to time, he put his cold fingers to his ears... He
I just felt that my heart was filled with panic, and my eyes were frighteningly dim.
Did he let go too early? If he knew that man would not give her happiness in the end, he...
When Shangguan Yu came in, Lady Ling Dang had already sensiblely coaxed A Bao and Ling Dang to the yard behind. Ying Qian also pulled Lei Yuan out, wanting to ask clearly. At this moment, Shangguan Yu stood alone in a daze.
In the yard, he watched a woman smiling with a small wooden basin filled with rice dumplings. She sat under the gourd stand and picked a rice dumpling wrapped with red silk thread and handed it to him, "This is a meat rice dumpling. It's salty."
, if you don’t like sweets, you should like this!”
The sun shines through the gourd stand, and spots fall on the woman's face. I don't know why, but the woman's smile has the ability to calm people down. Shangguan Yu intuitively took the rice dumplings, sat down in front of the small square table, and saw
The woman had already started to peel off the rice dumplings with her slender white fingers. When she peeled them off, she found a few red dates embedded in the white rice. She lowered her head, took a bite, raised her head and smiled at him, with rice grains on the corners of her lips.
Not aware of it.
Shangguan Yu moved his fingers, and he really wanted to reach out and remove the rice grains from the corners of the woman's lips, but in the end he turned his head and asked in a low voice: "What should I do now? I'm afraid that there will be another seven or eight days.
The imperial edict will reach Chu Han..."
"Ignore it!" Chu Yiqing raised his eyes calmly, "Whether we get married or not is my business. I don't need to listen to the instructions of an outsider!"
Shangguan Yu was stunned and whispered: "Do you want to resist the decree?"
"If I don't receive the imperial edict, I am not resisting it!" Chu Yiqing saw that the rice dumplings in front of him were not moving at all, so he stretched out his hand to help him peel them off, and said while peeling them, "Don't worry, I can solve it! But this
You came just in time this time, I harvested a new batch of rice, you can take some back with you when you go back. Now that there are some problems with the sea trade between Li State and Luo State, the price of this rice must be good!"
Chu Yiqing peeled off the rice dumplings, leaving only a brown leaf, and handed it to Shangguan Yu again, "You have worked hard along the way, try the rice dumplings I made with my own hands!"
Shangguan Yu took it and took a bite, feeling that the rice was fragrant and sweet. It seemed to be more delicious than what he had eaten before.
"This rice is irrigated with mountain spring water and grows better than that of Luo State, so I am confident that I can sell it at a high price!" Chu Yiqing finished the rice dumplings in his hand and poured Shangguan Yu another cup of tea.
"You should also try this tea. It tastes very good. I plan to use it to make wine, so that whether it is beer or liquor, the taste will be much richer than before!"
Seeing that she had been talking about business matters, Shangguan Yu didn't really seem to take this matter to heart, so he had no choice but to stop mentioning it. He ate the rice dumplings and drank the tea. After careful taste, the rice dumplings and the
The taste of tea is indeed different.
Yingqian stood outside the fence, looking at the situation in the yard. She was very anxious. She pulled Lei Yuan and asked: "What's going on? How did the emperor issue such an imperial edict so well? Where's the emperor? I didn't say anything."
What?"
Lei Yuan whispered: "Let someone send a message to the lady, saying that he will solve it, but I just ask the lady not to return to Chu Han for the time being!"
"Even if this is the case, I should show up, right? Look at that Shangguan boss. He chased him here from the capital in person. Isn't it too insincere for me to do this?" Yingqian couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
, such a big thing happened, and I didn’t even show up, which is a bit unreasonable!
Lei Yuan pulled Yingqian further and whispered: "Don't add fuel to the fire, I'm in trouble too!"
Yingqian was stunned and asked anxiously: "What's the trouble?"
Lei Yuan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Along with the edict for the young lady to choose a husband, there is also the edict for me to marry. The emperor wants me to marry Princess Ruimin of Dai!"
"What?" Yingqian couldn't help shouting loudly, but Lei Yuan immediately covered her mouth.
"Are you afraid that things are not chaotic enough?" Lei Yuan quickly looked into the yard and saw that Chu Yiqing was still talking to Shangguan Yu. He didn't pay attention and pulled Ying Qian further away.
"Didn't you say that I was thinking of a solution? Didn't you say that this matter can be solved?" When Yingqian thought of Chu Yiqing's grievances, she could no longer calm down. Even if she lowered her voice, the volume was still a bit high.
.
"I was thinking of a way, but my plan was a little blocked..." Lei Yuan whispered.
"What should we do? Let the young lady marry someone else, and let me marry that Princess Ruimin?" Yingqian still couldn't calm down, her lips were still trembling.
"You are so excited, let alone the lady, so I dare not tell the news to the lady. All I can do now is to hide here. The lady cannot receive the imperial edict, nor can I get any news from the outside. Wait until I think of it.
There's a way..." Lei Yuan sighed lowly.
"Then what if there is no other way? That is the emperor, the ruler of this world!" Yingqian's eyes began to moisten, "You also know the lady. Although she never mentioned anything about our father, the lady has done so much.
, many of them were developed for me, such as crossbows and blood droplets. Master Abao was in danger several times because of me. If the lady doesn’t like me, she can stay out of it, but the lady..."
Yingqian burst into tears as she spoke. She truly felt aggrieved for Chu Yiqing.
"I know, I know everything!" Lei Yuan quickly held her in his arms and let her lean on his shoulders, "I know everything you said, Yingqian, give me time, you have to believe me!"
"It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. The key is that Miss believes it!" Ying Qian pushed Lei Yuan away and shouted loudly.
"I believe it!" Suddenly, Chu Yiqing's voice came.
Yingqian quickly looked back, her whole body tensed up nervously, "Miss, you..."
"Lei Yuan, Boss Shangguan is going back. You go to the city with him and let him take the 20,000 kilograms of rice back!" Chu Yiqing ordered calmly.
"Miss, my matter..." Yingqian looked at Chu Yiqing who was so calm, and almost had the illusion that maybe there was something wrong with her ears just now. The lady didn't hear anything, nothing...
"Let's do business first!" Chu Yiqing smiled lightly and signaled Lei Yuan to send Shangguan Yu away.
Lei Yuan looked at the woman standing in front of him. She was as tall and graceful as ever, with a smile on her face, picturesque features, and extraordinary beauty.
But Lei Yuan still noticed something strange. He was instinctively afraid of Chu Yiqing at this moment. Even though she had a smile on her face, the feeling she gave him was like the harsh winter in the twelfth lunar month, bone-piercing.
He had experienced this feeling on that rainy night when the woman, wearing a silver eagle mask on her face, faced off against hundreds of people with a sword; in Shangjia Village, when he faced the gangsters who hurt Ah Jin and wanted to steal the rapeseeds.
He had seen it before. At this moment, there was no bloody storm, but Lei Yuan felt instinctively afraid.
"Yes, Miss!" Lei Yuan quickly responded in a low voice, walked into the yard and said respectfully to Shangguan Yu: "Boss Shangguan, I'll see you off!"
Shangguan Yu stood up, walked slowly towards Chu Yiqing, and finally stopped in front of her, his eyes firmly said: "Remember my words, I will always be on your side, no matter what happens, no matter what decision you make
, I will support you unconditionally!”
Chu Yiqing smiled gratefully.
Shangguan Yu intuitively felt that the smile was heartwarming. He couldn't bear to look at it any longer and turned around to leave.
Lei Yuan followed behind.
"Miss..." Yingqian knew that she was in trouble again, so she quickly knelt down in front of Chu Yiqing, "Miss, Yingqian has no face to follow you anymore, Yingqian..."
"Don't say anything, get up!" Chu Yiqing said calmly, "Although you are doing it for my own good, remember, this is just this one time and it won't be the same next time!"
Yingqian nodded quickly.
"The rice dumplings are getting cold, let the Zhu family ladies come back and eat them quickly!" Chu Yiqing turned around and entered the house.
Yingqian quickly responded, got up from the ground, patted the dirt on her knees, and hurried to the backyard to find Abao and the others.
Entering the kitchen, Chu Yiqing stood in front of the stove. In the hazy heat, her eyes suddenly felt wet and her nose felt sore. She lowered her head and looked at the two small flowers splashing in the water in the pot.
"Mother, mother, look what the little cat caught!" A Bao ran into the kitchen happily. Chu Yiqing quickly turned his face, held back his tears, turned his eyes and asked: "What did he catch?
Didn't he catch the swallow?"
Abao stood at the door holding the little cat and stared blankly. He asked in disbelief: "Mom, why are you crying?"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Why am I crying? It's because the steam in this pot is too hot and makes me cry!"
"Mom, didn't you say that smoke can make you cry, so can this steam?" Abao threw the little cat aside and hurried forward. His little stature was just taller than the stove, and he desperately stretched his head to look inside.
.
"If you look again, I'll throw you in a hot bath!" Chu Yiqing deliberately picked up A Bao and coaxed him.
"Mom, I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore!" Abao immediately begged for mercy, giggling.
No matter how much grievances he felt in his heart, Chu Yiqing felt sweet and relieved when A Bao smiled. He hugged him and came out and said: "A Bao, do you miss grandma? Let's go home tomorrow, okay?"
Abao immediately nodded and said: "Okay, go home, go home!"
Yingqian and Lingdang Niang happened to come in. When they heard this, they hurried forward and said: "Miss, didn't you agree to hide here for a few days? Why..."
"Can you hide for a while, or for a lifetime?" Chu Yiqing said coldly, "I will follow the old emperor's wish and avoid being an eyesore to him!"
"Oh, my lady, you can't act out of emotion, this..." Yingqian became anxious when she heard this, and quickly grabbed Chu Yiqing's lapel and said: "Miss, calm down, I will think of something!
"
Chu Yiqing raised his eyes calmly and said: "Yingqian, I don't act out of emotion, I have to face whatever I have to face!"
"But Miss, you just agreed to hide here for a while, why..." Yingqian didn't dare to say anything halfway through, why, haven't you heard about the marriage granted by the emperor? When she thought of this mouth, Yingqian
Qian regretted and wanted to slap herself in the mouth. When did she become so ignorant!
"Go back!" Chu Yiqing said calmly, "Don't make it difficult for him!"
Yingqian was startled and saw that Chu Yiqing had already carried A Bao into the house, so she quickly chased after her: "Miss, what do you mean?"
Lingdang stood in the yard blankly, looking up at her mother uneasily, "Mom, what's wrong with Aunt Chu?"
Lady Lingdang sighed and whispered: "You just need to remember that when you grow up, you must be filial to your aunt like a filial mother, do you understand?"
Lingdang nodded quickly and vigorously.
At noon, Chu Yiqing called Shan Er and Guo Huai over because there was still more than half of the rice that had not been mortared into rice. She told Wan that every step must be taken care of, and she would leave Ling Dang Niang here for the time being.
This is responsible for the follow-up matters.
"Miss, why are you leaving in such a hurry?" Shan Er couldn't help but ask. As soon as he spoke, he was glared at by Ling Dang. He quickly shut his mouth and stopped talking.
Chu Yiqing did not answer, but just said: "Shan Er, if you encounter something, discuss it with Lady Lingdang. If you really can't solve it, send someone to Chu Han to find me. Do you understand?"
Shan Er quickly responded.
Chu Yiqing nodded, and seeing that it was getting late, he let the two of them go back, while he took A Bao out for a walk.
As I walked, I unconsciously came to the mountain spring. Now the eye of the mountain spring has been built into a pool. The cave behind has been completely blocked by stones. Some weeds and small flowers have grown beside the stones. Chu Yiqing
Standing in front of the mountain spring, I suddenly remembered the story of Shui Bing'er and couldn't help but let out a faint sigh.
"Mother, why are you sighing?" Abao immediately raised his head and asked.
Chu Yiqing squatted down and scratched his little nose and said, "Mother is in a bad mood!"
"Why are you in a bad mood? Did A Bao make you angry?" A Bao looked like he was asking for the truth.
Chu Yiqing hugged Ah Bao gently and shook his head: "No, Ah Bao didn't make mother angry, and mother didn't know why she was in a bad mood. When Ah Bao grows up, Ah Bao will find the answer and tell mother, okay?"
good?"
Abao nodded as if he understood: "Yeah, okay!"
Chu Yiqing couldn't help but laugh again.
Before dawn the next day, Chu Yiqing left Zhujiazui with A Bao. After arriving in Lucheng, he first went to Hua Mansion and then returned to Chu Han with Hua Lin.
From the capital to Chu Han, Chu Yiqing felt that the journey was extremely long and difficult. On the way, Lei Yuan tried to persuade Chu Yiqing countless times to give up going back, but Chu Yiqing still persisted. She had her own self-esteem and pride.
, also has its own persistence!
At this time, at noon, in front of the Chu Han Mansion Yamen, two old yamen guards were hiding in the shade and taking a nap. The cicadas all over the trees were shouting irritably. The shops on the streets on both sides of the Mansion were also empty of people at this moment.
It's rare, and many boys also take advantage of this time to be lazy and take a nap.
"Ta-ta-ta-ta!" Suddenly, there was an urgent sound of horse hooves, and a group of five fast horses came running from the other end of the street. The man in front was slightly fat, with a pale complexion and no beard under his chin. He was wearing a bluestone brocade robe.
, the collar of the clothes is embroidered with patterns, and the chest is embroidered with a complicated pattern that looks like a bird or an animal. They wear white-soled black cloth boots. The four people behind them are dressed in short clothes, and a golden sheath hangs on their waist.
With machetes on their backs, the five fast horses arrived in front of the government office. The four guards quickly dismounted, but the man in front of the horses was still sitting on the horse.
"This is... oh, he's from the palace!" The sound of horse hoofs woke up the old Yamen servant. As soon as he looked at the man in the bluestone brocade robe, he recognized that it was the eunuch's costume in the palace. The pattern should be of a high level, so he quickly let him go.
When people go inside to report, they will already kneel down to greet them.
Bai Yuan, who was taking a nap, got the news and quickly put on his official uniform and went to greet him.
"I didn't know that I missed my father-in-law's arrival, so please forgive me!" After looking at the guard's token, Bai Yuanzeng hurriedly stepped forward and said.
The father-in-law glanced at Bai Yuanzeng and asked, "Are you the Yin of the Chu Han Prefecture?"
Bai Yuanzeng responded quickly: "I'm sorry! My father-in-law has been working hard all the way, why don't you go and sit down at the government office, drink a cup of hot tea, and rest for a while?"
The eunuch pondered for a moment, nodded, and led Bai Yuanzeng all the way into the government office lobby to sit down.

Thank you Qiu Xin and Feifei for your daily support. Finally, we are a little quiet, okay. Xiaoyao strives to write well and wake up everyone, hehe
