Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 538

"The ticket from the Yumajian works in a realistic way."

Xue Rengui walked in the corridors of the imperial city with a smile on his face, looked at Yiai beside him and murmured: "Brother, capture Cen Mao alive tomorrow."

"Shut up!" Fang Yiai raised her hand to interrupt Xue Rengui's words, lowered her voice and said in a deep voice, "There are so many people in the palace!"

"Little brother is abrupt." Xue Rengui realized that he had slipped his words, quickly covered his mouth with his hand, nodded and whispered.

Fang Yiai took out the small iron plate of the Eastern Palace from his waist, looked at the iron hole that lost the blue silk sash, and muttered, "I'm afraid I can't return this order."

"Brother, why worry, this thing was originally created by Feng Chengdong, and the blue silk sash was asked by the crown prince to ask Feng Chengdong for it."

"That being said, I'm a little worried." Fang Yiai heard Xue Rengui's words, put away the small iron plate again, and said as she walked, "Tomorrow is important, if there is any mistake."

Xue Rengui brushed the dust off his clothes, and murmured: "Brother has told the Imperial Army three times about this matter, as long as Cen Mao goes to Wufeng Tower tomorrow, nothing will go wrong."

"I hope so." Fang Yiai took a deep breath, looked at the blue sky, and murmured: "Long live, I'm afraid Desheng should return to court?"

The two brothers walked out of the imperial city in unison, boarded the carriage of the bearers in the hall, and after a short farewell, they each went their separate ways and headed towards their own mansions.

Returning to Zhuangyuan Mansion, Fang Yiai let go of her mind and body, and walked slowly to the main room, only to see that Gao Yang was holding an ancient book and concentrating on studying.

"What book does the princess read?"

Fang Yiai beckoned the maidservant to step back, then closed the door behind her, and walked to the side of the bed with a smile, "When did Shu'er work so hard?"

"Shu'er has worked very hard!" Seeing her husband came back, Gao Yang put down the ancient book and said with a smile: "The Book of Songs I read can help the senior officials to accumulate some knowledge."

"Prenatal education?" Sitting by the couch, Fang Yiai held Gao Yang in her arms, and said softly, "Shu'er is suffering."

Gao Yang snuggled into her husband's arms, and said with a smile: "What is there to suffer? Brother Jun'er really worked hard."

"I'm working hard?" Fang Yiai took off her gauze hat, changed into her official clothes, lay down beside the couch, and said softly, "Fang Jun didn't work hard, he was just tired."

Gao Yang stretched out his jade fingers, gently rubbed both temples for her husband, and muttered: "Brother Jun'er is not used to working in the Ministry of Punishment?"

"That's not true. Uncle Li Fang and brother Mao Peng are very polite to me." Fang Yiai looked up at his wife, only to see that she was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but she was already pregnant with Liujia. In her previous life, Shu'er was probably still studying, right? High school?"

"Brother Jun'er, you already have gray hair." Gao Yang picked up a piece of white hair, pulled it lightly, then put it in front of Fang Yiai, and muttered: "Brother Jun'er will only be 20 years old this year, how could you Do you have gray hair?"

"Twenty years old? Thinking about it carefully, he was admitted to the Imperial College under a fake name, took office in Henan Dao, and fought bloody battles in Wuma Dao. Fang Junshi was completely exhausted."

"Shu'er, it's absurd to think about the flowers and candles in our bridal chamber." Fang Yiai was lying on the side of the couch, looking at his wife beside her, feeling very peaceful in her heart.

Gao Yang spat softly, and said shyly: "I don't blame you, I got drunk at the wedding night and used family law to others."

"If it wasn't for that drunkenness," Fang Yiai sighed, "You and I, my husband and I, might be separated."

"The family law has produced a good wife, which is very cost-effective." Fang Yiai tugged Gao Yang's sleeve lightly, and said seriously: "Shu'er, why don't you and I live in seclusion in Meiwu County?"

"Meiwu County? Is it the place where Brother Jun'er served as the county magistrate for the first time?"

"That's right, it's Master Fan's hometown, it's very beautiful and secluded."

"Brother Jun'er, why would you want to quit? Are you able to let go of all the relatives and friends in Chang'an City?"

"What is wealth and glory?" Fang Yiai sighed softly, "What is so, what is. What is so? Not even one!"

As she said that, Fang Yiai felt her eye sockets moist, recalling the past, she lost her voice and said, "Shu'er, I'm so tired. It's already stretched to go back and forth with the eldest grandson Wuji, not to mention the matter of Li Si Donggong involved, but now there are many lice Don’t be afraid of the itch, let’s count it as one!”

Gao Yang's eyebrows were slightly condensed, he stroked Fang Yiai's black hair on her temples, and said softly: "Brother Juner, if you are tired, go to sleep for a while, dinner."

"I'm not going to eat dinner, I'll chat with Shu'er tonight." After speaking, Fang Yiai closed her eyes, and gradually fell asleep in a deep sleep.

In the middle of the moon, Fang Yiai woke up leisurely, "Shu'er, what time is it?"

"It's only three o'clock." Gao Yang rubbed his sleepy eyes and said with a smile.

"Third watch? It's still early." Fang Yiai looked sideways at Gao Yang, and chuckled, "Have Shu'er eaten?"

"I've used it, sister Jingniang cooked wontons."

"Jingniang's wontons don't always improve, but they are good enough to eat."

"Sister Jingniang is a woman in the general family, but it is very rare to be able to cook for you, and you are still here to pick and choose."

"Yes, yes, your lady is right, Fang Jun is taught."

"Smelly poor, rest for a while, Shu'er will call you tomorrow morning."

"Okay." Fang Yiai moved a little towards Gao Yang, put one hand on his wife's wrist, and fell asleep again with a smile on her face.

In the early morning of the next day, Fang Yiai changed into azure-colored casual clothes and wore a kerchief on her head, as if she had regained her top-ranking demeanor in civilian clothing.

"Brother Jun'er, why are you wearing common clothes when you go to court today?" Gao Yang murmured while lying on the couch.

Fang Yiai washed her face with water, soaked the towel and said: "Every three or six days the court meeting, today is an even number, so don't go to the court meeting."

"Aren't you going to the court meeting? Brother Jun'er, if you have nothing to do today, go to the palace for a walk. Eldest sister's big wedding will be in a few days, so it's not good if you don't go."

"Big marriage? Okay, I'll go when I have time." Fang Yiai nodded slightly, and after hasty grooming, she bid farewell to Gao Yang and walked out of the main room.

Fan Jin was waiting at the entrance of the main hall a long time ago, when he saw Fang Yiai walking out of the main room, he quickly cupped his hands and said, "Minggong."

"Master Fan, do you need me?" Seeing Fan Jin waiting in front of the main hall, Fang Yiai frowned slightly, and asked curiously, "Could it be that the fourth brother has arrived?"

"Fourth Master arrived at the concierge half an hour ago."

"Half an hour ago? Fourth brother came before dawn?"

Seeing Fan Jin nod his head slightly, Fang Yiai smiled wryly, "I'll go to the concierge right away, Master Fan, go get busy."

After parting with Fan Jin, Fang Yiai went straight to the concierge and saw Xue Rengui waiting for tea, she couldn't help smiling and exchanging greetings, and then the two brothers dressed in casual clothes and rushed straight to Wufenglou.

"Brother, if Cen Mao recognizes you and me, things will be bad."

"It doesn't matter, you and my brother can only taste wine and drink tea in the private room of Wufenglou, and leave the rest to the imperial army."

The two brothers talked while walking, and when they came to the gate of Wufeng Tower, they found a familiar figure.

"Zou Yushi." Fang Yiai walked forward with a smile, cupped her hands and said, "Brother Zou has been waiting for a long time."

Zou Yinglong shook his head, cupped his hands and said, "It's okay, the next official has just arrived."

"If that's the case, please go upstairs." Fang Yiai and Zou Yinglong walked into Wufenglou together, leaving Xue Rengui standing there in a daze, greatly puzzled by Zou Yinglong's intention.

"Brother and Zou Yinglong have always been at odds, and they even held a sharp sword to threaten them in front of the Zhuangyuan's mansion. Why did they suddenly turn enemies into friends today?"

The three of them walked into Wufenglou, because it was early in the morning, there were no guests in the building, the shopkeeper of Wufenglou saw Fang Yiai coming, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Fang"

Fang Yiai raised his hand to interrupt the greeting from the shopkeeper of Wufenglou, and said in a low voice, "Shopkeeper, the three of us come here in common clothes, please open a private room."

"Yes, yes, Xiao Er! Go and open a private room!" The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, and instructed Xiao Er.

Fang Yiai and Zou Yinglong climbed to the second floor, Xue Rengui leaned into the shopkeeper's ear and said, "Shopkeeper, you just pretend you didn't see anything today, thank you brothers."

"Yes, yes, the fourth master told me to keep it in my heart." The shopkeeper of Wufenglou was well versed in human relationships and the world, and he responded to Xue Rengui's instructions repeatedly.

Sitting in the private room on the east side of the second floor of Wufeng Building, Fang Yiai ordered a table of dishes and said to Zou Yinglong, "Brother Zou, how about a drink today?"

Zou Yinglong frowned slightly, and asked inexplicably: "What is the purpose of the concubine's invitation today?"

"Brother Zou, do you know who wrote that popular nursery rhyme?"

"Oh? The son-in-law has already found out?"

"When you are young, there will be results." Fang Yiai smiled slightly, filled up the wine, cupped his hands and said, "Jiang Taigong is fishing."

Zou Yinglong raised his glass with a frown and said in response, "Whoever wishes to take the bait."
