Of course, there are also reasons for Liu Keyu's great help.

No matter what Li Hong wants to do in the Liu family, Liu Keyu will support him.

With the support of Concubine Liu Gui in the palace, many elders of the Liu family did not know that half of Liu Jia's troops in Li Hong's hands were managed by Liu Keyu.

In fact, Liu Keyu controls more than half of Li Hong's power in the Liu family!
Because of this, Li Hong and Liu Keyu became more harmonious, and Li Hong cared more about Liu Keyu's thoughts.

Although Li Hong's chest was full of anger, he forced himself to suppress it at this time.

He got up and followed the butler to the backyard.

Entering the backyard is like entering another world. The layout of the entire backyard is completely different from the front yard with strong ethnic style.

The backyard of the Liu family is completely built according to the Jiangnan gardens. The rockery corridors and pavilions seem to be copied from the Jiangnan gardens.

This is not because Liu Keyu likes buildings like Jiangnan Gardens, but because the family of his previous husband to whom he married was built this way.

When she returned to the Liu family, she visited the backyard of the Liu family's mansion after her marriage. The backyard of the Liu family's mansion became like this.

As soon as he entered the backyard, Li Hong couldn't help but frown.

But he quickly concealed the unhappiness in his eyes.

When he entered the main courtyard, Li Hong even had a gentle smile on his lips.

Before he entered the door, he said urgently: "Madam, are you looking for me for something urgent?"

After entering the flower hall, I turned around a screen and saw a woman sitting on the main seat wearing a ruffle skirt that was popular among women from the south of the Yangtze River.

The woman was dressed in rich purple, with a Ruyi vase Bu Yao on her head, and a pair of rare jade bracelets on her wrists.

But no matter how beautiful she is, she can't hide the white hair on her temples.

When the woman raised her head, she showed her age even more. There were crow's feet at the end of her eyes and thick nasolabial folds. She was already an old woman with gray hair.

Compared with Li Hong, who was in his prime, it was as if Li Hong was this woman's son.

When Li Hong saw the woman raising her head and looking at him, he walked to the woman in two steps with a smile, stretched out his arms and hugged her, "Keyu, why are you looking for me?"

If the maid serving in the room hadn't been used to the behavior of this old couple, she would have been shocked by the scene in front of her.

The maids kept their heads down, not daring to look at the madam and the master at this moment.

Liu Keyu reached out and poked Li Hong's forehead, and said coquettishly: "I can only come to you if I have something to do, but I can't come to you if I have nothing to do?"

If Liu Keyu's person and voice were not so old, this might be an eye-catching scene.

Now when people look at this scene, they find it extremely strange.

Li Hong actually kissed Liu Keyu twice on his face and neck, making Liu Keyu laugh.

After making a fuss for a while, Liu Keyu pushed Li Hong away and ordered the maids to go out to prepare lunch. Then he asked Li Hong, "What's going on? I got so angry when I came back. I heard that you smashed up the front hall and the hall." ”

Li Hong knew that what happened in the Liu family's mansion could not be hidden from Liu Keyu. Half of the Liu family soldiers he brought out were Liu Keyu's men, and what happened could not be hidden from Liu Keyu.

He said truthfully: "The nephew I brought back was suddenly killed by someone in the team, and it was someone from the elder's side who killed him. Madam, you also know that I only have one nephew in my family. If we can capture Southern Xinjiang, I was planning to train my nephew, but now I have completely lost my hope."

Liu Keyu frowned, "Did the elders really do it?"

Li Hong nodded, "Madam, if you don't believe me, just ask the tribesmen who came with you, they won't hide it."

"I will go find out the real situation. If the truth is really like this, I will not spare the elders lightly."

"Also, what's going on with the Protectorate?" As he spoke, Liu Keyu took out a letter from his sleeve and pushed it in front of Li Hong. "This letter is written by Peng Duhu of the Guangnan Protectorate and was delivered this morning."

Li Hong was startled and quickly opened the envelope, took out the letter paper, and read the lines at a glance.

The more he looked, the tighter he clenched his hands. If Liu Keyu hadn't been by his side, he would have punched the small table with one punch.

Peng Duhu actually asked the Liu family to compensate the Duhu Mansion 1 taels of silver and [-] dans of fine rice!How dare he say this!

There is a drought in Guangnan this year, and the entire Liu family cannot afford the extra [-] tons of rice!
Obviously Liu Keyu had read the letter first, she frowned and said displeasedly: "We and the Duhufu have always been in harmony with each other. How did you provoke the Duhufu and make them talk like a lion? "

Li Hong said angrily: "Madam, it was I who provoked the Duhufu. When we attacked Southern Xinjiang, the Duhufu sent people to intervene and help the Southern Xinjiang people, and then ambushed us when we retreated! Seeing that Southern Xinjiang It was about to fall into our hands, and they suddenly got involved, causing the situation to suddenly change!"

Liu Keyu didn't expect that things would turn out like this.

She looked at Li Hong in surprise. Seeing that Li Hong's expression was not fake, she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth and said, "The Liu family of the Duhufu is just a soft persimmon!"

While the two of them were talking, Liu Keyu's confidant, Grandma, said outside the door: "Toast, madam, the housekeeper has something to report urgently."

Liu Keyu glanced at her husband and said, "Let him come in."

After a while, a smartly dressed nanny led the housekeeper to Liu Keyu and Li Hong.

Li Hong asked: "What's the matter?"

The housekeeper hurriedly said: "Toast, madam, it's not good, the people from the Shan tribe and the Jinshui tribe said that the chieftain would not give food, so they all left!"

Li Hong's face darkened, "They really left like this? But tell them if they leave like this, the food will really be gone!"

"The old slave said it, but they still left!"

"What's going on? Their clan has no food, and they will die if they go back. Are these people really not afraid of death?"

The housekeeper smiled bitterly, "The old slave secretly gave the food to people to inquire, and then I found out that these people said that the clan had food, and they would not die of hunger when they returned. People from two clans were gone at once, and the remaining clans were ready to make a move. I can't keep them if they hang around like this, toast, should we give them some food first..."

Do the Shan Tribe and Jinshui Tribe have food?

Thinking of the Shan tribe's chieftain Luoshan being captured by Xuan Kui, and the Shan tribe being close to the Jin Shui tribe, if these two tribes really had food, they would probably get it from Xuan Kui.

Southern Xinjiang has been besieged by them for half a year and is as short of food as Guangnan. Where can they find food for the Shan Tribe and Jinshui Tribe.

If there is, there is only one possibility, and that is that the Regent's Protectorate gave it to them privately!
Then everything makes sense!

After giving grain to southern Xinjiang, and now asking them for rice from the Liu family, do you think they are really being taken advantage of?
Liu Keyu's mind turned no slower than Li Hong's, and he reacted instantly.

Li Hong and Liu Keyu looked at each other, Liu Keyu nodded, and Li Hong said: "Take some grain and go around in front of other tribes, just let them see the grain, don't give them a grain of grain."

After hearing what the toast said, the housekeeper hesitated and said, "Tooth, will this be counterproductive?"

"We don't have much food either. Do you want to give your food to them?"

"I don't dare, I will do it now!"

The housekeeper quickly left the inner courtyard.

Liu Keyu said: "It seems that we can't do anything without a chance encounter with the Protectorate!"

Li Hong nodded in agreement, and he hugged Mrs. Yu again, "Madam, I am really tired from this expedition, and you also feel sorry for your old husband. It is better to leave it to the elders to compete with the Protectorate. ?”

Liu Keyu glanced at Li Hong, "What? You don't want to argue with the elders?"

Li Hong said softly: "With Madam here, I can still suffer. If Madam is there, it's mine! If Madam doesn't trust me any day, everything I get can be returned to Madam immediately!" (End of Chapter)
