green bamboo dream

After bidding farewell and returning to the palace, Yu Zhu finally had a kind of happiness where everything was settled, and she would feed brother Xi at home every day, tease Xiao Xun, and occasionally do the opposite.

There is also some strange news. First of all, the northern border area did not know what was going on. When Cheng Xungong rushed there non-stop, boosted morale, and deployed defenses. Anshun a lot, and never took the initiative to provoke trouble again.

Cheng Xungong didn't dare to be careless, so he sent soldiers to guard day and night, for fear of some sneak attack.

You must know that the weakest time of the Mongolian soldiers is in spring. After a long and cold winter, they don't have enough food and grass, so their horses are thin and their combat effectiveness is not strong.The most powerful time is in autumn. At this time, the water and grass are fertile, the horses are strong, and in order to get food for the winter, the soldiers are full of fighting spirit.

Cheng Xungong led the deputy commander-in-chief and the generals to patrol around the camp to strengthen security, and sent people to find veterans who were familiar with the terrain, listed all possible routes on the map, and studied them one by one.

After Beijing Central received the news, a group of old generals studied it for half a day, but they didn't come up with a reason, but they finally reached a conclusion: there must be a conspiracy

But what's the plot...is up for debate.

The second strange thing is Princess Zhuyi. Once a day, she will help Mama Yu take her hand to visit the Qingyuan Courtyard.

Usually, she chatted with Yuzhu about family matters, but for some reason, Yuzhu was always sensitive to the fact that her topics were always talking about the war in the north intentionally or unintentionally.

as if caring

Yuzhu didn't know much more than her. One reason was that Cheng Xunxun was always busy these days, and he came back late, and he didn't want to talk about the war; the other reason was that he didn't care much. Putting it on the child, paying attention to his every move, every cry, she watched every subtle expression of brother Xi with great interest, and she couldn't bear to blink.

In this way, there is nothing to hide, so she just let her talk.

After inquiring for a few days, Princess Zhuyi didn't know whether she was disappointed or she knew it well, and she gradually stopped coming.But she didn't give up strangely, and found the old man again.

……

"What, say it again." Yu Zhu was holding Brother Xi's little clothes and slowly folding them. Hearing the report from the silver chain, he was so shocked that he didn't even notice that the clothes had fallen off.

"Yes." Yinlian's expression was also tense, and he said in a tense voice: "...the old man locked up Mrs. Tai."

"Have you figured out what's going on? It was fine yesterday, why did it suddenly happen like this?" Yu Zhu calmed down, still feeling a little unbelievable, the two of them are not too young, and they won't go back to being a young couple Let's also enhance the relationship in the noise.

Yinlian shook his head, "No one knows what happened. The closest Lufu saw Mrs. Tai go to the old man's study outside. She didn't even take her with her. After she went in, she sent all the attendants away. After going out, I talked with the old man in the study for a while... The sound of porcelain falling to the ground was heard from a long distance away, and then the old man kicked the door with a livid face, and said to send Mrs. Tai back to the room , nothing is allowed to come out."

Almost under house arrest.

Yu Zhu frowned and thought for a while, but no matter how rich her imagination was, she didn't know what Princess Zhuyi said that made the old man so angry.

As far as she knows, although the old man doesn't have any affection for the princess Zhuyi, but at least he respects her on the surface, and the princess is also a royal blood anyway-with the old man's mind, even if Zhuyi Princess Yi said in front of him that her heart was still toward her former husband-in-law, and she even wanted to raise her face, but he would not be so angry.

The Ji family over there also got the news and hurried over to ask her.

Yu Zhu didn't know what to do, so she asked Ji to go back first, pretending that she didn't know.When Cheng Xunxun came back at night, I hurriedly told him.

Cheng Xunxun also looked surprised, pondered for a moment, and went out before even changing his clothes.

After a while, he came back frowning and said in confusion, "Father doesn't see me."

This was the first time—since he turned 14, the old man didn't shy away from him when dealing with certain things.

Now I really have no way of knowing... The maid brought hot water in, and Yu Zhu twisted the veil with her own hands to help him wipe his face. First, he asked him, "Are you hungry? Mama Ruan cooked some noodles for you. Come up."

Cheng Xunxun nodded, took his clothes and went to the clean room to change, and then came out refreshed.

Soup noodles have been placed on the black lacquered and carved hexagonal table. The noodles are yellow and bright, and the milky white fish soup is fragrant. It is sprinkled with black fungus, yellow egg skin, and white bean sprouts. There are two small and cute bean sprouts inside. quail eggs.

The mist rises densely, exuding a tempting aroma.

There is also a small round plate next to it, which contains hot eight-treasure yam cake.

He wasn't very hungry at first, and he couldn't stand the smell, so Cheng Xunxun sat down, picked up his chopsticks and started to eat.

The noodles are chewy, the soup is rich, salty and delicious, and soon half of a bowl of noodles is gone.

Yuzhu sat next to her, took a piece of eight-treasure yam cake and slowly bit it, this is called eating with her - by the way, since she became a mother, she felt more and more that the job of a wife is "**": eating with her, chatting with her Still sleeping with...

When Cheng Xunxun finished eating a bowl of noodles, he looked up and saw that Yu Zhu was studying the eight-treasure yam cake that was originally square in his hand but has now been bitten into a plum blossom shape by her.

Can't help but chuckle.

It was only then that Yu Zhu realized how embarrassing she was, and seeing that pair of black eyes that were extremely similar to her son's was filled with a smile, she felt even more embarrassed, threw the leftover cake into her mouth, and gulped down half a cup of tea, Only then did he swallow it.

Afraid of being laughed at again for not acting like a mother, Yu Zhu changed the subject and told him about the princess of Zhuyi who came to find her a while ago.

"...I thought it was nothing important, and it wasn't a secret, so I told her to listen." Yu Zhu was still a little uneasy after thinking about it, pulled Cheng Xunxun's sleeve, and asked him: "Could it be related to this?" ?”

If something really happened because of this, then her crime would be serious.

"What does it have to do with you? Don't think too much about it." Cheng Xunxun said with a smile, "I'll ask my father tomorrow when he calms down."

Then he looked around again, and asked Brother Xi: "Why didn't you see the child?"

Seeing that he wanted to communicate with his son again, Yu Zhu quickly stopped him and said, "Farewell, I finally coaxed him to sleep. I don't know what happened during the day today. I was very happy. I kept my eyes open and talked with the maid. Let's play."

"Mother Ruan said that children need to sleep more to grow faster." She grabbed the man's strong arm and said angrily, "Don't disturb him."

Cheng Xunxun smiled softly, with a long-lost joy on his face, "It's up to you."

……

The waning moon is falling to the west, but the dawn star is not sinking.In the inner room, on the bed surrounded by huge and exquisite red rosewood weeping flowers and crabapple flowers, a man and a woman sleep with their necks crossed.It may be a little hot, the dark red Suzhou embroidered golden brocade was half opened, the man's body was slender and lean, with a broad chest, and his muscles were tight and firm, covered with a thin layer evenly; the woman's body was petite and exquisite, curled up in the The man slept soundly in his arms, his face was pink, his white and tender hands rested on the man's strong waist, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

I don't know what kind of dream I'm having.

……

When Yuzhu woke up the next morning, her surroundings were empty again.

Hua Ruo heard the movement, lifted the curtain and came in, and said with a smile: "...Second Master has already left the house, so the servants should not wake you up."

Yu Zhu nodded and got up from the bed to wash.

Just after changing clothes and washing up, Mother Ruan came in from the outside with Brother Xi in her arms, followed by the wet nurse Zheng.

"Second Master went to see brother Xi before breakfast, and he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes when he came out. I don't know how much he likes it." Mother Ruan smiled, and looked down at brother Xi in her arms. The son babbled, knowing that he was hungry, so he hurriedly handed it to the nurse behind him.

The woman in the small kitchen quickly came in with a food box, and pastries, side dishes, porridge and wontons were colorfully arranged on the black lacquered and carved hexagonal table.

Ruan's mother pointed to a bowl and said: "...the newly made abalone with bone, made with cheese and sucrose frosting, boiled, strained, strained, simmered... I have been busy for half a day, please see if it tastes good. "

Yu Zhu looks like a snail-like pattern, white and pink, very attractive to the appetite.Scooped a piece in the mouth, it melted in the mouth, the lungs melted into the heart, it was very delicious, and I couldn't help but praised: "It's delicious, and my mother's craftsmanship is much better."

Brother Xi stared at Mo Yu's eyes eagerly, seeing that Yu Zhu just buried her head and ignored him, and called out "ahhh" a few times.

Only then did Yu Zhu lift her head from the plate, looked at the little person in the nurse's arms, and said with a smile, "Does Xi'er want to eat too? No, we can wait until you grow teeth."

After breakfast, Yuzhu really had nothing to do now, because Princess Zhuyi was locked up by the old man, and she didn't even need to greet her in the morning, so she had to hug Brother Xi and wander around.

The qin silk is burning incense, the charcoal fire in the furnace is just a little flame, the color is like liquid gold millet jade, ash is added to the charcoal, and a fire is added to the ash, the incense on the fire can burn for a long time, the fragrance is not strong but clear Pleasant, not inexhaustible, full of vitality.

"What kind of fragrance is this? It smells good." Yu Zhu sniffed, with a satisfied look on her face. When it's cold, she often closes the windows. Once incense is always easy to make the air thick and turbid, so Yu Zhu I have never loved it, but this fragrance is good, not irritating at all.

"It was dug out from the storeroom." Qin Si put the lid on the incense burner and said with a smile: "It should have been given by Grandma Tan's grandmother before. You have never liked incense, so you have been pressing it at the bottom of the box. Yin, the servant smelled something in the room, so he lit it for a while."

Ruqing, Yuzhu was stunned, and she didn’t know what happened to her... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and give a reward. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
