Mother Liu has held Shu Yao since she was born and watched her grow up. She is probably more affectionate for her than Shu Yao's mother. She also has a son, but her husband is alone at home and does not take good care of the child.
A child accidentally fell into a large water tank, and it took him a long time to find out. By the time he was fished out, the child had long since died.
After receiving the letter, she rushed home like crazy, and fainted after just one glance. After waking up, she cried for a whole day, then packed up her bags and returned to Li's Mansion. From then on, she devoted herself to Shu Yao.
On her body, Shu Yao inherited all her maternal love.
At this moment, she and Shu Yao were sitting next to each other. While smoothing Shu Yao's hair, she looked at her carefully and said:
"After the New Year, on the twenty-third of the first lunar month, you will be fifteen years old! What a wonderful age, just like a flower. When the time comes, mom will make you a new suit of clothes. It's okay if you can't wear them that day.
Wear the same thing from now on."
Shu Yao leaned on her and said with a smile:
"The clothes my mother makes must be excellent. I will wear what my mother made that day!"
The smile on Mother Liu's face deepened, and the two of them talked about something else. When it was time to get up, Shu Yao was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes. Mother Liu smiled and asked her to lie down and rest, and covered her with a quilt.
, Fang came out from inside.
The family banquet ended very late, most people had left, and the smell of alcohol was still wafting from the hall.
The night was dark, and a boy was holding a lantern in front. The dim light could only illuminate a little of the road under his feet.
Shen Junzhuo hardly looked at the road, and just walked along the lake. The snow on the road had been cleared away long ago, and only the lake retained the appearance of the first falling snow. The dim, twinkling starlight shone on it, sparkling.
With a faint light.
He was followed by his deputy Zhao Feiyong, who had just come out of the palace and brought an official order, ordering him to see how the prime minister and his uncle were spending this year. He thought to himself that the prime minister was the father of the current saint, the old uncle.
Grandpa, uncle Guo is the elder brother of the saint, and uncle Xiaoguo. Nowadays, many yamen in the court are in the hands of these two people. During the Chinese New Year, their place is definitely a hundred times more lively than others.
Think about the former officials who, when they first came to great power, were full of lofty ambitions. Regardless of the dissuasion from the civil and military officials of the court and the public, they must personally conquer the Northern Huns. Are the Northern Huns so easy to fight? The imperial court and the Northern Huns came and went with each other on the border.
It has been involved for more than fifty years, and both sides have their own victories and defeats, but neither dares to go further.
When the officials came like this, they were full of momentum. The army marched northward, and for a time they were invincible. The court was about to find someone to write a poem to praise him, but suddenly the situation took a turn for the worse. The army penetrated deep into the hinterland of the northern Huns, and was soon confused by the vast wind and sand.
direction. The Northern Huns took the opportunity to outflank and divided the 300,000-strong army into four directions, hoping to defeat them one by one and capture the commander alive.
The situation was extremely critical. Seeing that the battle was about to be lost, the officials put on Huns' clothes and dressed up as Huns at night, trying to escape from the camp.
A eunuch and a group of guards followed him, but he was recognized by the Huns before he ran far. When he was chased in the desert and had no way out, he met him with more than ten people as scouts.
The scouts were good at disguise and quickly hid the officials in splendens, sandbags, and under the roots of red willows. They also pointed the pursuing Huns in another direction in Hun language. The officials escaped.
A calamity. He led the official family to join other armies. Unexpectedly, there were Huns spies in the army. The official family was hit by an arrow and his throat was almost cut. It was he who saved him from the sharp blade.
.
From then on, the officials felt that they could not do without him and required him to follow them wherever they went.
The army finally broke through the siege of the Huns, but only 60,000 of the 300,000 troops left when they returned. They returned to the court in a disastrous defeat. The King of Qi, who had been his opponent in the fight for the throne, was ready to make a move and contacted the people stationed in Beijing.
The 50,000 troops outside cooperated with the people in the Jiuchong Palace inside and outside, intending to usurp the throne.
At that time, he returned to the capital for the first time and was still young. He could not control all the forces in the capital. All he could do was to stay by the official's side to protect his safety.
Outside the palace, it was all thanks to the Prime Minister, who took the emperor's token and risked being hanged in public to find Huben Camp. I don't know what he said, but Huben Camp finally obeyed the order to protect the capital and just guarded the city gate.
One night, the 50,000 people outside did not attack, but inside they were already killed and bleeding like a river, and the King of Qi was beheaded.
The palace has changed, and the prime minister's status is even more unshakable. The prime minister was once the emperor's master, and later he became the father-in-law of the official family, and later he had a life-saving grace for the official family. His thoughts became more and more expanded, and there was
When he repeatedly collided with officials in the court.
The dissatisfaction of the official family has been building up day by day, and it has been building up for six or seven years, but they still can't do anything to the prime minister and his son. Now they can only order him to keep an eye on them and monitor them.
If there is anyone around the official who can be trusted today, except for the eunuch Fuquan who fled with him back then, he is the only one left. Therefore, the official will use the last thing he can rely on and rely on - the entire capital.
Defense was entrusted to him.
When he appeared on the street, he was dressed in black armor. Wherever he went, someone would immediately clear the way without clearing the way. In the eyes of the people, he did not protect the safety of the capital. On the contrary, he was a murderous demon.
A monster that drinks blood.
He didn't bother to explain or tell them. What they thought of him had no impact on him. As long as he could get what he wanted, it was enough.
The current situation seems calm on the surface, but in fact it has already become turbulent. He must find a way to protect himself and his loved ones in this turbulent time.
He walked for a long time, pacing back and forth from the Magnolia Courtyard to the Lanyue Building where he lived. Suddenly he remembered that he had a long box in his hand, and then he remembered that it was the girl Shu Yao's banquet.
Dropped after leaving the table.
When Shen Yu gave her something, he could see it clearly. He saw her face full of anger and didn't know why. He was just curious to see what it was. When he opened it, he saw a pure black box.
There was red silk inside, and a warm white jade hairpin lay on the red silk. The hairpin was carved into the shape of a half-opened magnolia. At first glance, it looked like a priceless masterpiece, and it matched her very well.
He was unhappy. Shen Yu was so young, so there was nothing wrong with giving it to a girl. She imitated those dudes who gave her this thing. She didn't know if the girl knew what it meant when a man gave a girl a hairpin. Fortunately, she didn't get it.
On, if not...
He suddenly felt confused, what if it were otherwise? He didn't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, it was just unsatisfactory, uncomfortable, and unhappy. So, when the maid in Mrs. Yu's house gave this thing to him, he didn't want to return it.
I gave it to that girl. I put it in my sleeve and held it in my hand. I really wanted to throw it away.
In the night, Shu Yao's big black and bright eyes seemed to appear in front of him, and he always seemed a little afraid when looking at him. He suddenly thought of something and said to Zhao Feiyong behind him:
"Don't spread those scary rumors about me on the street to the house."
