Chapter 25 The Imperial Concubine Is Coming
How could it not be Shi Yu's hand, she will only marry Shi Yu.

Could it be that her parents married her to someone else?

no no……

Li Yulou struggled and shouted desperately, but in the dream she didn't dare to move, she felt very scared.

She felt that the hand with the jade wrench must have a face that frightened her.

She felt that she was trembling, it was her trembling in the dream, but she only knew that she was trembling but she didn't dare to move, she didn't even dare to avoid the hand that was about to touch her.

But another kind of consciousness was yelling at her, telling her not to be uncovered, but to run away...

Li Yulou felt that he had fallen into a nightmare.

Just when she was about to see the man's face, she was woken up by someone.

It was Chuntao who woke her up, with melon seeds still hanging from the corner of her mouth.

"Miss, ma'am..."

Obviously Chuntao rushed in very anxiously, and didn't even have time to spit out the skin of the melon seeds.

Only then did Li Yulou's consciousness slowly recover.

"Miss, did you have a nightmare?" Chuntao asked while touching Li Yulou's sweaty forehead.

Li Yulou nodded, a little distracted, "I had a nightmare..."

"The clothes are all soaked. What kind of nightmare is this? How could you be so frightened?" Chuntao touched Li Yulou's inner garment, and went to the cabinet to find clothes for Li Yulou while talking.

"A not so good dream, I wanted to take a bath and sweated too much..." Li Yulou collected his thoughts.

Maybe it's because of sweating too much, and I don't have any strength in my body.

Chuntao agreed, and told her mother-in-law to boil water for Li Yulou, while she went to clean the bathtub.

Li Yulou felt his body gradually warming up after soaking in the hot water.

In the next few days, Li Yulou didn't have any more nightmares. She was worried about meeting Xie Jianzhang, so she didn't go out and stayed at home.Every day, you can climb up the pole to dry the fabric to see if Meng Shiyu has come home.

It's a pity that she didn't see Meng Shiyu.

Although I miss him a little bit, I still hold back. One is that it is not safe to go out by myself, and the other is that Meng Shiyu is seriously preparing for Qiu Wei, so she is not easy to disturb.

There is a famous nunnery in Xiuzhou called Jingyue Nunnery.

Jingyue Nunnery was actually just a small nunnery before. The reason why it is famous now and has become a well-known nunnery with many pilgrims is because a relegated concubine lived here before.

It's just that this concubine has now flown on a branch to become a phoenix, and has become the most favored woman of His Majesty today - the imperial concubine.

It was nearly 20 years ago that the imperial concubine was relegated. At that time, the emperor was not the emperor, but the prince.

In the last few years of the late emperor's reign, the court fought fiercely. Prince Huaining was suspected of rebellion and was beheaded by the late emperor. Now His Majesty is sitting on the crown prince.

The first emperor felt that the reason why Prince Huaining rebelled was because he was infatuated with a woman he shouldn't be infatuated with.

So before His Majesty took the crown prince, the first emperor drove away all the women around him and exiled them in nunneries in various places, and then personally chose the crown prince and side concubine for the prince...

But His Majesty was thinking of the imperial concubine in his heart, so after the death of the first emperor, His Majesty took the imperial concubine back from Jingyue nunnery after he ascended the throne.

The former head teacher of Jingyue Temple was a good person and always took care of the imperial concubine.

The imperial concubine was pregnant at that time, and she is the third prince who is now favored and favored.

The imperial concubine and the third prince have lived in Jingyue Nunnery for seven years, and it has been 13 years since they left Jingyue Nunnery and returned to the capital.

Now the third prince is twenty years old, the year of his coronation.

When the third prince is crowned, he will build a mansion outside the palace, make him a prince, and marry his concubine.

But the third prince insisted on going back to Xiuzhou with the imperial concubine before being crowned, saying that this is the place where he was born, and he should come back to have a look before he becomes an adult.

Although the emperor was reluctant to part with the noble concubine and the third prince, the emperor was particularly moved by such a pure and kind heart.

So the imperial concubine's going to the south of the Yangtze River has become the most important thing for the court recently.

The officials on the Liangzhe Road side are naturally also busy, putting down all the things in their hands, not to mention the opportunity for promotion in the future if they have meritorious service, but they must never have it. It's not impossible to lose your head.

In order to welcome the imperial concubine and the third prince back to Xiuzhou, Cao's appeasement envoy was also stationed in Xiuzhou to work.The magistrate of Xiuzhou takes officials to inspect and patrol the streets of Xiuzhou every day. Whose plaques are old will soon be replaced with new ones. Whose shop fronts are not clean must be tidied up. .

There were also no small peddlers on the streets of Xiuzhou. These peddlers either went to a fixed location, or they were not allowed to enter the city at all. Such tossing made people in Xiuzhou panic.

"The fabrics are no longer allowed to be placed at the door. Originally, the fabrics were placed outside to attract a few customers, but now they are not allowed to be placed. They have to be packed away..." Zhang Xiulan muttered to Li Yulou while eating dinner.

"It's not a bad thing. The street is clean and tidy. Otherwise, every house will extend outward, and half the street will be blocked..." Li Xu continued.

"If you don't do business, how would you know that extending out is very different from not extending out?" Zhang Xiulan said.

"The other family is the same as ours, so there is no difference..." Li Yulou said.

Zhang Xiulan snorted, and then laughed, "The Cheng family wanted to steal a few pieces of material and hang them on the door today, so that the yamen servants would give them a good reprimand and fine them five taels of silver."

Li Xu didn't like Zhang Xiulan's schadenfreude character, so he glared at her.

"Master, ma'am...something happened..." While eating, Li Yukun's servant stumbled in, out of breath.

"What's going on, Kun'er is causing trouble again?" Zhang Xiulan stood up and asked, looking at the servant A Cheng.

"Ma'am, the young master and Mr. Liu were arrested by the yamen servants for fighting in the street." Ah Cheng replied panting.

"Chuntao, go and bring Ah Cheng a bowl of water." Li Yulou hurriedly ordered Chuntao.

Chuntao agreed and brought a bowl of water to Ah Cheng.

"Drink slowly, don't choke your lungs..." Li Yulou warned.

Ah Cheng thanked him and drank a large bowl of water, and then continued, "Master, they were chasing a chicken in the street, and for some reason they bumped into the yamen servant, and then they were taken away without saying a word, and put in prison." Fuya."

"Why did this matter end up in jail?" Zhang Xiulan frowned.

"This is against the law, how can you arrest people randomly..." Li Xu blurted out.

"Father and mother, don't worry. This matter shouldn't be serious. It's just that the limelight has become more intense recently. Yukun always makes troubles. Did the servants beat them on purpose so as not to cause trouble when the imperial concubine came?" Li Yulou comforted.

"Father, go to the yamen first and ask, get some money, you have to get some money...I'll go to Zhou Ying and ask her to ask Wu Butou." Li Yulou said.

At critical moments, Li Yulou's words are very effective at home, and he is more like the head of the family.
