(2) Chasing his wife

After Su Huaian left, Qingyu returned to Fulantang with the food box.

Xiao Lianyu was half leaning on the couch and said, "Leaving?"

Qingyu nodded and put down the food box: "The Duke of Guo asked his slave to give this to you."

Xiao Lianyu looked at the word "Yao Ji" and curled her lips in disgust, "Where are those two people?"

Those two refer to brothers and sisters Su Lingyi and Su Youlin.

Qingyu‌: "Your Highness is outside."

Xiao Lianyu said: "Ask them to come in."

After a while, the two little ones walked over and called out together, "Auntie."

Xiao Lianyu whispered, "See it?"

Su Lingyi rolled her eyes and smiled: "Mom, when will daddy come again?"

Xiao Lianyu sat up and glanced at her.

Su Lingyi covered her mouth and immediately changed her words: "Master Su."

Xiao Lianyu tapped her sister's nose, then her brother's, and said, "It's already midnight, shouldn't it be time for you two to sleep with your grandma?"

Su Youlin nodded first.

Su Lingyi puffed up her face, made a sound, and then reached out to her brother.

Su Youlin held on and pulled him back to Nuange.

In an instant, only the eldest princess and Qingyu were left in the room.

Xiao Lianyu said: "Have all the words been conveyed?"

"Not a single word left." Qing Yu whispered again: "Your Highness, just now the Duke of Guo's eyes turned red when he saw the two young Highnesses."

The eldest princess' eyes dimmed and she snorted with the tip of her nose.

Wearing a mask, he dared to break into her mansion, but now that he has restored his title, he is abiding by the rules.

"Put the water on, I'm going to wash up."

Qingyu‌: "What kind of incense are you planning to use today, Your Highness?"

How could Xiao Lianyu smoke the incense and said sadly: "No need."

The wind blows for a moment, and the moon shadow is like a flower.

Xiao Lianyu dried her hair and returned to the soft couch. Seeing that the lights were about to go out, Qingyu was about to take down the snack box.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she mentioned it, Xiao Lianyu said: "Wait a minute."

Xiao Lianyu looked at it for a long time, opened it, picked up the plum blossom cake and took a bite.

Qing Yu suppressed the smile at the corner of her mouth and said softly: "Didn't Your Highness say that the taste has changed since Yao Ji changed the chef? Doesn't it taste bad?"

Xiao Lianyu said with a straight face: "One sentence on the left, one sentence on the right, Qingyu, who are you facing?"

Qingyu immediately coaxed her: "My slave's **** naturally belong to His Highness."

After a long while, Xiao Lianyu carefully opened the eight boxes of snacks and took a few bites of each.

She admitted that she still loves to eat.

************************

A few days passed.

The Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was re-established, and the imperial decree granting marriage was issued to the Ministry of Rites. Official Su Huai'an was reinstated and took over the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple again.

The man changed into his Shangguan uniform again, went to court and was on duty, and was extremely busy every day.

Zheng Baihe picked up a case file and handed it to Su Huai'an, "Jingming, this is a new case from the Ministry of Punishment. The **** killed his aunt to fight for the family property, but the **** refused to admit it. I think there is something suspicious about it. Take another look."

Su Huaian took one case file and handed another one over, "This is the case that was closed yesterday."

Zheng Baihe said: "Okay."

Su Huaian put down the case file in his hand and whispered: "Teacher, Jing Ming has something to ask me."

Zheng Baihe heard that he lowered his voice and thought it was something important, so he said: "Come with me."

The two came to the side hall. Zheng Baihe put down the cup in his hand, frowned and asked: "Do you want to advance three years' annual salary from the Ministry of Accounts?"

Su Huaian: "Yes."

Zheng Baihe took a deep breath and said, "The unjust case against the Zhenguo Government has been vindicated. The property confiscated during the house raid should be returned. You shouldn't be short of money. Don't you have debts outside?"

"Teacher misunderstood." Su Huaian: "At that time, most of the cash in the Duke's house went into the hands of the craftsmen. Most of the money left in the house was gifts from the emperor and could not be pawned. I was not I’m short of money, but I’m just short of it.”

Zheng Baihe narrowed his eyes and questioned him as if he was interrogating a prisoner: "Since the third year of Yanxi, Your Majesty has increased the official salary. The annual salary of high-ranking officials is not a small amount. If you have any difficulties, just talk to him directly. I said, otherwise don’t expect me to hand you a coupon.”

Su Huaian was silent for a moment.

"Su Jingming, you keep calling me a teacher, so why should I be an outsider? I won't argue with you about your return to Beijing, so what are you going to do now?"

Seeing that Zheng Baihe's beard was about to fly again, Su Huaian quickly said: "I said, I said."

Zheng Baihe looked at him coldly.

Su Huaian tapped his knee with his fingertips and said honestly: "It's a betrothal gift."

Zheng Baihe's beard regained its composure, his brows relaxed, his eyes instantly became kind, he lowered his head and smiled, "So this is what I want, I'll give it to you."

Su Huaian stood up and said: "Teacher..."

Zheng Baihe sneered at him, "You have been an official for several years. What virtues do you not know about the Hu Bu? There is no one in the world who cries about poverty more than the Hu Bu. It would be a blessing not to delay the salary. If not for His Majesty's order, Do you expect me to get you money? I can easily give you a few sacks of pepper! You still have to wait half a year for pepper, the day lilies are already cold."

"Besides, looking back on our 100-year history on New Year's Day, who has ever heard of the Duke of Yipin Town paying an advance salary? Don't embarrass your ancestors of the Su family."

After being scolded, Su Huaian stopped talking and said, "Teacher, within two years, the students will definitely return to school."

Zheng Baihe said: "After the watch is over later, you can follow me back home."

Su Huai'an said "hmm" calmly.

************************

It's been half a month, and the Princess's Mansion receives all kinds of snacks and meals every day. It's self-evident as to who sent them.

The garden was filled with the east wind, and the lotus flowers were embroidered on the ground. Xiao Lianyu was sitting in the yard playing the flute boredly. Thinking of that person, she couldn't help but feel a wave of irritation in her forehead.

"Sapphire."

"My servant is here."

"Prepare the carriage, I want to leave the house."

"Your Highness, wait a moment."

After that, Qingyu hurriedly went to the warehouse to get the silver. The eldest princess went out to the streets, and many shopkeepers were laughing again.

Xiao Lianyu got on the carriage, lifted up the curtain, and whispered softly: "It's been a long time since I've been to the theater, let's go to Qingfeng Tower."

The carriage made a rumbling sound as it passed through Yunli Long Street and headed straight to Dongzhimen. The guard tightened the reins and turned around and said: "Your Highness, we are here."

Xiao Lianyu helped Qingyu get out of the carriage.

Yu Niang, the shopkeeper of Qingfeng Tower, immediately stood up to greet the princess as soon as she saw her. "I've met the eldest princess."

Xiao Lianyu said directly: "No need to be polite."

"Your Highness, are you here to listen to the opera?"

Xiao Lianyu nodded, "Is there any new drama?"

"Please come inside." Yu Niang turned around and made a clearing gesture to the waiter.

Xiao Lianyu entered the private room on the second floor. Not long after, the maid came in with new tea and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, there is a new play in Qingfeng Tower, called The Case of Huaiyu. There is also a new play at the moment. No one has heard of it."

Xiao Lianyu nodded miserably, "Then let's take this."

The window in the box was covered with curtains, and it suddenly darkened, followed by dozens of candles. Three actors came out from behind the screen one after another, a man, a woman, and an official.

Opening lyrics: In Datong, Shanxi, the son of a tailor was named Huaiyu, and the daughter of a wealthy merchant from the south of the Yangtze River was named Cheng Yu.

The Huai family and the Cheng family are like heaven and earth. One family is bare, and the other is full of gold and jade. The daughter of the Cheng family fell in love with the poor man. After the matchmaker came to propose marriage, the father of Huai made the decision. Erlang Huai became the son-in-law of the Cheng family.

The official slapped the table hard and said, "Your Cheng family has hired someone as a son-in-law and also given birth to a son and a daughter. If you want to reconcile, you have to give an explanation, right?"

Heli.

What a cliche and boring plot. The eldest princess picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

At this moment, Huai Erlang said word by word: "Madam, do you still remember what she said when she drugged me to force me to follow you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the tea in Xiao Lianyu's mouth almost spurted out.

My almond eyes widened and I took a deep breath.

Cheng Yu scolded: "Erlang, you might as well tell me first, how did you deceive me and hide it from me?"

Huai Erlang looked at Cheng Yu with burning eyes: "Madam, you can hit me and scold me, but how can you not see me? Madam must give me a chance to explain."

Cheng Yu glared angrily.

Xiao Lianyu's wrist trembled slightly.

This plot is outrageous!

Outrageous!

Huai Erlang choked up and said: "When I left home, I didn't mean to deceive, I was just afraid that I would harm my wife."

Cheng Yu‌: "What happened later! What happened later!"

Huai Erlang said painfully: "I thought you cheated on someone else."

Xiao Lianyu's **** and liver trembled together. If she didn't realize that something was wrong, it would be because her brain was filled with water.

Xiao Lianyu slapped the table and stood up: "Yu Niang!"

Yu Niang walked in quickly and said, "What's the matter, Your Highness?"

Xiao Lianyu said: "Bring me the play quickly."

Yu Niang quickly handed it over, "Here it is."

When Xiao Lianyu saw the handwriting, she still didn’t understand anything. Her face instantly turned red to the root of her neck, and she was panting even as she spoke, "This, this play... is not allowed to be shown to anyone else."

Yu Niang immediately said: "Your Highness, don't worry, Yu Niang will remove the show sign today."

I don’t know how long it has been since I came here, but Qingyu whispered: “Your Highness, do you still want to read it?”

Xiao Lianyu clutched the script, turned around and left without saying a word.

Back at home in the evening, Xiao Lianyu was upset. She would glance at the door from time to time, but she always thought she heard a knock on the door.

After dinner, Qingyu put the water in the clean room and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, the water has been put."

Xiao Lianyu raised her eyes and looked at Qingyu without saying anything.

Qingyu touched her face and said, "Why does Your Highness look at this slave like this?"

Seeing that the hint had no effect, Xiao Lianyu said without changing her expression: "I want incense."

Qingyu gritted her teeth and tried her best not to laugh: "I will prepare now."

The night quickly fell, and Xiao Lianyu took a shower for more than an hour. The fragrance surrounded her and dispersed, causing the maids at the door to sneeze.

She wrung out her hair and lay on the couch reading a literate biography. She waited and waited, but saw no movement. Her patience was running out, so she threw the biography aside.

"Qingyu, turn off the lights."

Qingyu silently removed the lock of the princess mansion, clasped her hands together, and silently recited Amitabha.

At three o'clock in the morning, the moonlight was like a flower, Xiao Lianyu's breathing gradually became evener, and suddenly there was a faint sound of footsteps at the door.

Step by step, it’s like stepping on human feet.

The man has a tall figure, clear facial features, and a pair of cold eyes like fog.

‌ He walked over gently and sat next to her.

Xiao Lianyu closed her eyes and held her breath, but her heart started to thump.

The man's familiar breath suddenly came down, and the hands under the quilt immediately clenched into fists.

His lips touched hers: "Have you calmed down?"

Unable to fall asleep, Xiao Lianyu slowly opened her eyes and said coldly: "What are you doing here?"

Su Huai'an's charming eyes were slightly lowered, and he said in a low voice: "Where else can I go?"
