It was getting late, and the number of people coming to express condolences was becoming increasingly rare.
Because the Zhang family was holding a funeral, their kitchen was not allowed to contain meat or fish, so Xiuyun ordered Yuzhu's supper to be cooked and delivered in a food box.
Who would have thought that after seeing Xiuyun's hand-made sauce elbow, Lao Twelve actually snatched away Yuzhu's food box.
Old Twelve was greedy for wine, so he took the food box and went out to the carriage.
No matter what, the Zhang family is also the residence of a marquis, and they are holding a funeral, so it is really inconvenient to drink and eat meat there.
Yuzhu ordered people to go back and notify Xiuyun to bring another midnight snack, while entering the clean room.
At this time, due to the lack of sewer pipes, even top wealthy homes could only use the toilet when convenient.
Every morning, when the dung trucks coming through the streets come, the servants will bring out the toilets and let the dung trucks take them away.
After Yuzhu had finished his defecation and was cleaning his hands, the girl holding the copper basin suddenly raised her face and whispered: "Please save the lives of my mother and son."
"Eh." Under the dim light, Yuzhu took a closer look and almost bit his tongue.
Good guy, the woman holding a copper basin and waiting for him to wash his hands is actually the mistress of the Hou Mansion and the step-wife of the old Marquis Zhang Zongren, Mrs. Liu.
As the saying goes, if you want to be pretty, be filial.
Madam Hou, Mrs. Liu, who was very close at hand, had an appearance that was at least nine points above. She was dressed in a mourning dress, and she was so pretty that she definitely exceeded ten points.
However, no matter how lecherous Yuzhu is, if the occasion is wrong and the identity is wrong, the worst thing is that the trouble will be huge and the consequences will be endless.
"Why do you say this?" Yuzhu is a veteran of Huacong. He understands very well that the dignified former Madam Hou actually dressed up as the girl who holds the basin in the clean room. What is the purpose? Do you still need to ask?
However, Ms. Liu was a ruthless character. Seeing Yuzhu's intention to retreat, she actually picked up the copper basin and splashed Yuzhu all over.
Before Yuzhu could shout angrily, Mrs. Liu actually opened her shirt, revealing the endless ravine that deceived the snow and conquered the frost.
"Xiangguo, if you don't save me, I will fight to the death to accuse you of having sex with me." Mrs. Liu quickly took out a pair of sharp scissors and touched the softest part of her neck.
Yuzhu could see that Ms. Liu was indeed determined to defeat the enemy. Because the murderous look in this ghost woman's eyes could not be deceived.
"How to save you?" Yuzhu didn't dare to hesitate and asked her quickly in a low voice.
Mrs. Liu said with tears streaming down her face: "If Zhang Qian attacked Jue, my son and I would definitely die without a burial place. Only if my son attacks Jue, can we, mother and son, survive."
Yuzhu understood instantly, good guy, it was the old emperor's will to dare to love, and it caused a big disaster!
"Your clothes are soaked. I have already prepared the fragrant soup, which is in the back room." Mrs. Liu simply turned her heart, closed her eyes, and jumped into Yuzhu's arms.
The Zhang family are Han officials, not Manchu bannermen.
Ms. Liu was completely willing to risk her life. If Yuzhu didn't fall in love with her, someone would really die.
At this critical moment when the old emperor is about to die, how to choose? Do you still need to ask?
Yuzhu picked up Ms. Liu, who took the initiative to send the cannon, and strode into the back clean room.
The feeling of bullying the serious Mrs. Hou is much more satisfying than dealing with Liu Taiqing!
To put it bluntly, apart from stealing Princess Cao Yi, stealing from the Liu family is the worst!
At the critical moment, Wu Jiang's voice suddenly came from outside the clean room.
"Master, Zhang Qian is here, saying he has something important to report."
"Well, tell him to wait outside the door." On a whim, Yuzhu asked Zhang Qian to stand across the door.
Zhang Qian outside the door never expected that Yu Zhu was bullying Mrs. Liu severely.
With Yuzhu showing off his majestic power, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but start to show off!
After everything was done, Yuzhu asked Liu with a smile: "Who is more powerful, me or him?"
"Oh, of course you are awesome. I have lived twenty-two years in vain, and I have never tasted such a wonderful taste." Mrs. Liu was really impressed.
When Lao Zhang was alive, he always only cared about his own happiness and didn't care about Liu's feelings at all.
Jade pillars are different. They are not only versatile, but also full of physical strength and gentle and considerate.
More importantly, Zhang Qian is outside!
When Lao Twelve came back full of wine and meat, he found that Yuzhu had changed into casual clothes, so he didn't think much and just took him to play chess.
In order to adapt to different occasions, officials in this era would carry clothing and baggage with their servants, which contained a wide variety of official uniforms, court uniforms, top hats and accessories.
For example, after leaving the yamen for duty, you have to go to the study apartment to have wine and wine. It is not appropriate to wear official clothes. You can go straight to a carriage or an official sedan, change into casual clothes, and then go to the appointment.
After the funeral of the Zhang family, Yuzhu came to see the old emperor with the zhezi.
The old emperor opened the book and took a look. He frowned and asked strangely: "The five-year-old son Xijue?"
"Huihan Ama, the adult sons of the Zhang family have made such a fuss that some of them actually fought in public, which is really a disgrace to the family." Yuzhu said confidently, "I'm thinking about it, rather than let them make a fuss.
It is better to let a young brother who still has room for improvement take the title of a nobleman."
"Khan Ama, you have always been considerate of our loyal and loyal ministers. I sincerely request that the youngest son of the Zhang family be allowed to study in the study." As soon as Yuzhu said these words, the old emperor nodded frequently.
Although the upper study room is where the princes study, allowing the youngest son of the Zhang family to study there just shows the benevolence and love of the old emperor.
The teacher is ready, and the place is also ready. The old emperor is just pushing the boat along, and he can gain a good reputation for valuing friendship, so why not?
"Haha, yes, let's draw up the decree." The old emperor said with great emotion, "Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth. I think back then, I ascended the throne at the age of eight, took charge of the government at the age of fourteen, captured Obei, pacified the San Francisco, conquered Taiwan, and brought peace to the world.
..." He boasted a lot.
Yuzhu was a truly sensible person. When the old emperor had forgotten his words, he deliberately straightened his face and said in a deep voice: "Khan Ama, I beg to differ. I think that the Zhang family are nothing more than fireflies and ants.
How dare you compare it to the bright moon in the sky? Today in the world, the Holy King is here, the rivers are feasting and the sea is clear, and the surroundings are peaceful..."
He talks softly without asking for money and keeps pouring money.
The old emperor felt very comfortable after being photographed, but he said: "You are exaggerating too much." It was a typical mismatch.
Yuzhu glared and retorted dissatisfied: "This is a prosperous time that has not been seen in a thousand years. I only mentioned one-tenth of Khan Amma's achievements. How can I exaggerate?"
The old emperor was so happy that he could not hide the smile lines on his face.
On the side, Wang Chaoqing bowed his head and did not dare to say a word.
But he was thinking in his heart, apart from Yu Xiangguo, who else could be the person in the world who understood the thoughts of Lord Long Live the best?
After Wang Chaoqing finished reading the edict for the youngest son of the Zhang family to ascend the throne, Zhang Qian was so shocked that he couldn't bear it for a moment, became so angry that he fell to the ground.
