Yu Shu has been working as a supervisor for five years. He has made a lot of money just by making a living in Wangjilou. In addition, he collects filial piety during festivals and festivals, and he has quietly accumulated an astonishing fortune. However, after all these years, she still lives in the old house on Baochang Street, with her brother Yu Xiu and several members of Zhao Hui's family. "Your Majesty, we are here." Xue Rui and Yu Shu got off the car one after another. The door of Yu Mansion was closed tightly. The family plaque hanging above the door had not been cleaned for many days and was covered with a thin layer of dust, thus losing its grandeur. The front is even more desolate, and there is no trace of the bustling scenery in the past. While Xue Rui asked the accompanying soldiers to come forward and call the door, he looked at the plaque above his head, recalling the past, and sighed: "You are called a famous family by yourself, Ashu, you are really amazing." Yu Shu walked to him , standing with hands behind his hands: "My family is indeed the first in the world." Since the founding of Emperor Anwu, how many Yixue families have contended, all of which have laid the foundation for decades or even hundreds of years. She is the one who supports the family alone. The name has no one before and no one will come after. "Humanity is about finding wealth and wealth in danger. Everything she has today is obtained by experiencing several lives and deaths." While he was talking, the door of Yu Mansion was opened. The concierge, Old Liu, leaned out to look around. When he saw Yu Shu standing in front of the door, he was stunned for a moment, then he shouted in surprise, turned around and ran inside. After reporting the news, he jumped up in age faster than a rabbit - ""n is back! Our adults are back!" Yu Shu shook his head and laughed, and said to Xue Rui: "Let's go in first." Old Liu Tou ran very fast. . He was so noisy that the whole garden could hear it. Yu Shu and Xue Rui walked to the entrance of the backyard cave, followed by a group of servants who heard the news. They all had tears in their eyes when they saw that their master was completely beard and tail. He returned home, instead of dying for his country like the rumors, he forgot the rules in excitement and walked in surrounded by her. Yu Shu did not chase them away. From a distance, he saw a group of people rushing towards the other end of the corridor. The first one was Yu Xiu. She ran towards her like a gust of wind. He hugged her and knocked her back, but Xue Rui held her back. "Sister!" Yu Xiu hugged her tightly and said in a choked voice, "I thought, I thought you were done." Yu Shu patted him on the shoulder. He raised his hand and touched his head. Unknowingly, her brother had grown taller than her. She swallowed the soreness in her throat and teased him: "You are so old, and you are still crying. Let go, are you going to strangle me?" Yu Xiu quickly let go of her, quickly rubbed the corners of his eyes, raised his head, When he saw the man standing behind her, he was stunned by the familiar face. ¡°Xue, Xue, Xue¡ª¡ª¡± He stammered a word but couldn¡¯t say it out. At this time, Zhao Hui and Aunt Cui also caught up and surrounded Yu Shu, laughing and crying. "It's okay, it's okay, Amitabha God bless you." "My daughter, you have suffered a lot this time, please call me." A group of maids in the North Chamber also looked at her with tears in their eyes. Shu couldn't move her feet. She hated to see people cry. She was so dizzy from their tears that she couldn't persuade her, so she had to pull Xue Rui out to divert everyone's attention. "Don't cry. I'm doing well. There are still guests here. Let me introduce you. This is His Royal Highness King Yanping. My ability to come back safely this time is all because of his dealing with me in the court." Only then did the whole family turn their attention to Xue Rui. This sight was incredible. Zhao Hui said "Ah" and covered her mouth. Everyone who recognized Xue Rui among the crowd was surprised - this , this, isn't this Mr. Xue, how did he become the prince of Dayan? ! "Brother Xue!" Yu Xiu finally came to his senses and shouted. Xue Rui's expression did not change, as if he had met Yu Shu for the first time, and he was polite when facing Yu Shu's elders: "I, Liu Shining, met Master Yu not long ago and I heard that she has a sworn brother who looks similar to me. , I think you have recognized the wrong person. " Everyone was half-convinced that there are indeed people with similar looks in this world, but there are so many coincidences in the world, and it happened to Yu Shu. What's more, the same thing had happened before. Both Yu Xiu and Zhao Hui clearly remembered that before they entered Beijing, the eldest son of the Xue family clearly stayed in Yiyang City under the alias Cao Zixin. I wonder if the fake Prince Ping in front of me is actually Xue Rui? Looking at their faces, Yu Shu knew that they were still suspicious, so he smiled and said: "Don't blame them, even I admit my mistake." After saying it in one sentence, she didn't explain much. Yu Xiu, Zhao Hui and the others couldn't do it in front of others. After asking, he had no choice but to play careless with her, and first asked His Highness Prince Ping to move to the small seat in the living room to allow their family to reunite, and then talk about the topic. Because it was difficult for the guests to sit still, He Fangzhi accompanied Xue Rui to the front desk.Drinking tea in the living room. In the past few years, with the rise of Yu Shu, the family has met more dignitaries. At this time, a prince of Yan suddenly came. Although He Fangzhi was surprised, he was not timid. Yu Shu returned to the backyard. The group of servants behind her were dismissed by her eldest maid Kidou with a stern face, leaving only two personal servants. In the hot summer, she went into the palace and came out feeling as sticky as if she had been sweating. After washing herself, she changed into a clean dress, and then she sat down on the couch to talk to her family, feeling refreshed. Without waiting for them to ask in detail, she gave an overview of her experience in the past half month: "That day I led the troops out of the city to rescue him, but unfortunately I went a step too late. The emperor had already been captured, so I had no choice but to surrender. General Ping I was imprisoned in a military camp outside the city, and they did not treat me harshly. Instead, they tried to persuade me to submit to Dayan. I refused to submit at first, and he did not force me. However, later, news continued to come from the capital - after Emperor Yan entered the capital. , while recruiting the imperial troops and re-employing the old ministers, I also appeased the people of Li and granted amnesty to the world. Seeing the change of dynasties, the change of ownership, and the destruction of Da'an, I couldn't be loyal, but I wanted to take a step back to save our family. I have to bow my head and submit. Thanks to Prince Ping, I can go home." Although she couldn't tell the truth to her family, she didn't want to deal with the emperor. How can you fool them with your loyalty and righteousness? After half of listening, Aunt Cui muttered to herself: "Thank God. Fortunately, you are smart this time. It doesn't matter who the emperor is, it doesn't matter who you are. How can you be a loyal minister if you are so stupid? We are a big family." Don't live anymore." Zhao Hui also sighed, with a look of fear on his face: "You don't know, since the news of the Yan soldiers entering the capital came, how many people wanted to escape, but they couldn't even get out of the city gate. Everyone was arrested, and we didn't know where to find you. There was a lot of commotion in the Minister's Mansion next door, and Minister Zhou was arrested that night and was imprisoned for seven or eight days. There was no news. Mrs. Zhou was crying all day long, and she could hear her through the wall. Unexpectedly, two days later, the godfather and godmother came back. Go and inquire about your whereabouts." Yu Xiu finally took the opportunity to speak, gritted his teeth and said: "The Minister of Zhou didn't know where he heard the rumor, saying that the emperor was kidnapped by the Yan people, and that you were captured instead of saving him. He said that you were tortured at the hands of the Yan people, which was vague, but he actually said that you died for the country! " This made the whole family think that something bad had happened to her, and they lived in confusion for the past few days, fearing that the government would come to visit one day! Tell them to bury the body. Yu Shu thought to herself that no wonder she felt that the house was lifeless when she came in. Everyone cried and wiped their tears when they saw her. It turned out that someone had falsely spread the bad news. This Zhou Shilang was an official promoted by Emperor Chongzhen after he ascended the throne, and he later moved to this street. He had been her neighbor for two years. He was a fifth-rank official, and he was half as short as he stood in front of her. The impression is that he is a smooth-tongued person, and she is too lazy to talk to him. The two families don't often move around, so their relationship is average. Ordinarily, at the palace banquet two days ago, Xue Rui cleared her name in full view of the public. That Zhou Shilang was among the first batch of officials to be reinstated. He was present and heard that she was safe, but he did not tell her family afterwards. If you don't understand, you pretend to be deaf and dumb and just make a mistake. This is abominable. It seems that there are many people in the previous dynasty who wished that she, Yu Shu, would "die for the country". If she loses her power, anyone can step on her. I really want to see the excitement on their faces when they learn that she has made a comeback and is in charge of Si Tianjian again. Yu Shu thought about it secretly and made a note first. When she turned around, she would have her hands free. First, she would take out all the subordinates of her Si Tianjian from Dali Temple, and then expand the old house by a few rooms, and add a few rooms next door. Just got through. "Sister, is that Prince Ping outside really not Brother Xue?" Yu Xiu couldn't help but ask. Although his impression of Xue Rui has been blurred over the years, after all, he is the brother he admired when he was a child, and now he has met him. , it is impossible not to recognize it at all. Zhao Hui also looked at her with pricked up ears. "No." Yu Shu told them categorically: "He is Prince Ping Liu Shining of Dayan. You must never admit your mistake again, and don't mention this again." If she wants to achieve good things with Xue Rui, he must let go of the past. Their identities should not be acknowledged to outsiders, otherwise it would not be absurd for the sworn brothers and sisters to be husband and wife now. "Oh." Yu Xiu lowered his head, unable to hide his disappointment. Aunt Cui didn't care who Prince Ping was. Seeing that Yu Shu was safe and sound, she made other plans. She moved forward and said with a bitter face: "The emperor has changed, but you are a great person." It¡¯s the end of the official career. Before the property on hand has been confiscated, we might as well pack up and return to our hometown in Yiyang as soon as possible, buy a few more acres of land during the intermediary period, and become a wealthy family. ¡± After a few years of prosperity, Aunt Cui has corrected many of her bad habits, and she has also learned to be clever. Yu Shu looked at her sad face and was secretly amused. He pretended to sigh and deliberately teased her: "It's too late, we can't leave." Aunt Cui was shocked: "Didn't they let you go?" Zhao Hui and Yu Xiu also became nervous, fearing that the difficulty was not over yet. Yu Shu said: "Let me go, but I have received the grace of Emperor Dayan to stay in the court and resume my official position. Therefore, I can't take you back to your hometown to farm." Hearing this, the three of them were stunned, and they were astonished by the great surprise. It was a gold brick falling from the sky, knocking them unconscious. Aunt Cui swallowed her saliva, "Does this mean that the new emperor wants you to be a high official?" Seeing Yu Shu nod, she blushed with excitement. If she could stay in the capital, she wouldn't want to Let's go, being a landowner's wife is not as glamorous as being a royal wife. I thought the good times were over, but I didn¡¯t expect good luck was yet to come! Zhao Hui and Yu Xiu were also very happy. It was not that they were greedy for the wealth, but more because they were reluctant to leave this sheltered place. Both Zhao Hui and Yu Xiu had been in this house since they lived in it. For those who live a stable life, this place is more like their home than Yiyang City, which has unbearable memories. A few people were excited, but also a little unrealistic. Zhao Hui and Aunt Cui were fine. After all, Yu Xiu was a young man who had read books. Even though he had no ambition to serve the country, he knew the truth. He looked at the eldest sister and hesitated: " Sister, you were originally a minister of the imperial court, but now that the country has perished, you have turned your allegiance to Dayan. If the world knew about it, wouldn't it, wouldn't it¡ª¡ª" He bit his tongue, unable to speak. "Don't you accuse me of being greedy for power?" Yu Shu said it for him, smiled softly, stretched out his hand across the coffee table and patted his hard shoulder, and said: "Just wait and see, there will be more people scolding me in the future. There are still many people who respect me. " In the evening, Xue Rui naturally stayed in Yu Mansion for dinner, but because of his status, the whole family felt uncomfortable, so Yu Shu and he set up a table alone in Yongchun Garden. Drinking and eating, shutting out others, makes it easier to talk. The four seasons in Yongchun Garden are like spring, warm in winter and cool in summer. At this time, there are many flowers and plants, and the scenery is very beautiful. They are currently in an octagonal pavilion next to the pond, with floor tiles paved with Chinese jade under their feet, and a dome dotted with gold crystals above their heads. Glazed lamps hang high under the eaves, reflecting the glow around the people in the pavilion. , like an immortal wandering down to earth. "This garden of yours seemed a bit crude when I left it, but today I feel like I'm in a fairyland when I come back." Xue Rui couldn't help but admire, the refreshing cool breeze coming from the water bank, carrying the faint fragrance of flowers, Xun makes people drunk before they drink. "Later, we repaired it a few times and brought in a stream of running water from underground." Yu Shu said with a smile while drinking wine: "When the table is removed, I will take you on a night tour. I just happened to have raised a few beauties under the moon. It¡¯s about to bloom. Let¡¯s enjoy it with you.¡± ¡°It¡¯s very good.¡± In the military camp and on the battlefield, he never talks about elegant things. After drinking and eating, Yu Shu asked someone to bring over a bamboo bone lantern and handed it to Xue Rui to carry. The two of them walked arm in arm to the verandah, stopping to admire the flowers and moon along the way, feeling very uncomfortable. At night, in the waterside flower room, he was sitting on a recliner, half hugging her from behind, looking sideways at the two bushes of moonlight blooming slowly under the window sill, quietly savoring the tranquility of this moment. "Your Majesty has promised to marry me. You should choose an auspicious day as soon as possible. I don't want to be secretly with you anymore." Yu Shu said "hmm", then laughed and turned around to poke. He poked his chest, "Then you have to go to Wangji Tower to reveal the list first." On the day when Wangji Tower Dayi Hall opened its doors, Yu Shu ordered people to post a sky-high reward on the Tianji List. The first one is her golden post "recruiting a son-in-law". Xue Rui has long known that she converted Wangji Building into the Dayi Pavilion. She has been well-known for running it over the years. And with Jin Ke, the god of reports, it is not difficult to know that there is a list of secrets in Wangji Building, which makes it even more interesting. It was said that there was a reward worth ten thousand taels of gold, but no one has been able to reveal it yet. He lowered his head and saw her narrow expression, and he was frightened. He hugged her tightly and said, "I'm so lucky to have met you in this life." If it weren't for her appearance, he would have been burdened with the Xue family's upbringing. The blood feud between the adoptive father and the biological mother will last a lifetime. It¡¯s ridiculous to say that he, a tall and dignified man, actually relies on her as a woman. Even if they are separated from each other all day long, just thinking of her makes him fearless, not afraid of the dangers ahead, not afraid of swords and guns. Because he firmly believes that even if?With nothing, even her name no longer exists, she will still wait for him to come back to her. Perhaps the luckiest thing in his life was looking back at him on the streets of Yiyang City many years ago. (To be continued)?¡
