Domineering in the East Palace: The owl girl takes the crown prince on the bar

Chapter 192

Yu Banxiang fiddled with the abacus in her hand, glanced at Lai Qing who was sitting there from time to time, she was surprised in her heart, the quietness of Lai Qing made her a little unaccustomed to it, didn't she leave Beijing after the new year?

When I came back today, I just sat here and didn't enter the palace?

"Ma'am, is Lai Qing here... Hey, you are really here, why don't you go to the yamen to find me?" Yu Jizu strode into the inn in a police uniform, looked at Lai Qing who was sitting there, with an expression on his face. He showed a smile: "I just heard from the soldiers guarding the city that you returned to Beijing today and just came out of the palace?"

When Wanyou asked her to choose what she wanted to do, she chose the post of police officer in Jingzhao Mansion. It was very free, and it was exactly the life she wanted to live.

Lai Qing raised her head, looked at Yu Jizu's appearance, raised her eyebrows and said, "Are you really wearing men's clothing every day?" Ever since she met her, she had never seen Jizu wearing women's clothing.

"To be a police officer, of course you have to wear men's clothes. Besides, you don't know that my young master wears men's clothes." Yu Jizu gave Lai Qing a blank look, sat down opposite her, and drank the tea at hand.

Lai Qing looked at Yu Jizu's movements, rolled her eyes, and said casually: "This time I went to the border to inspect and inquired about the movements of the two countries." "Is there any movement?" Yu Jizu moved to his lips The cup paused slightly, and asked with raised eyebrows.

"The ancient country sent envoys, it seems that they are here to congratulate the emperor's birthday, I don't know what gift the ancient emperor sent this time."

"This is not surprising news." Yu Jizu looked up. Now everyone in the world knows that Ao Ren is the son of Wan You and Gu Di. It is normal for Gu Di to send someone to congratulate Ao Ren on his birthday. .

"This matter is indeed not surprising, but Xiangyun Kingdom..." Lai Qing's deliberately protracted tone made Yu Jizu feel a little uncomfortable. She drank two cups of tea and couldn't help asking: "What is the status of Xiangyun Kingdom now?" What's going on?" Yu Banxiang, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, paused for a moment when he fiddled with the abacus, and then continued as if nothing had happened, but a complex light still flashed in his eyes that no one saw.

Is Jizu still thinking about Gong Qingpu?Jizu is quite old, and it is really time to find a good family, but Jizu doesn't seem to care about it, he wears men's clothing to work in the yamen every day, or enters the palace to accompany the queen mother, and then stays in this inn.

If things go on like this, Jizu might not really be an old lady by then.

Lai Qing whetted Yu Jizu's appetite, so he teased: "It turns out that some people let the general of Zhen Guo not do it, and came here to be the arrester of the Jingzhao government office."

Yu Jizu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled lightly.

"Hey, I really don't see it, why are you so ambitious? You can't even be a queen." Lai Qing said with a smile.

"I just found out today that my young master has ambition," Yu Jizu smiled heartlessly, but his heart still felt a little wrenched. After such a long time, he must have enjoyed being the emperor. Her departure is a big deal to him Say, it doesn't matter.

And she gradually forgot about him!She believed that one day, she could completely forget about it.

"It's not today that I found out that you are ambitious, Young Master Yu, but today I found out about you, Young Master Yu, which made me like you even more. It's a pity. Why aren't you a man? If you were a man, I would marry you. "Lai Qing said teasingly, when she said this, the scene in the imperial garden today suddenly appeared in her mind.

That gentle and elegant Taifu.

"You are willing to marry me now, and this young master will also marry me." Yu Jizu said with a smile, but his sharp eyes caught Lai Qing's absence, she raised her eyebrows, Lai Qing's absence?It was a spectacle.

Jingcheng North Street
Among the many residential courtyard areas, there is a small courtyard that is not very eye-catching at first glance, standing there silently. The courtyard is very neat and tidy. There is a simple gazebo at the corner of the front courtyard, and there is a path paved with bluestone. The road winds to the front of the courtyard and connects with the gazebo.

It began to drizzle in the afternoon, and in the misty rain, the scenery in the yard looked quite different.

This yard was bought by Li Zeshu half a month ago. After some renovations, the doors and windows were brand new, and the waist-length weeds in the yard were sorted out, and some famous flowers were transplanted to decorate the whole yard. It looks elegant and secluded.

The courtyard has a front yard, a back yard, and a spacious courtyard corridor, where the eaves and corners meet, and the house yard and pavilions meet.

A simple and elegant carriage was parked in the front yard. The drivers were two slender men, one of them jumped out of the carriage, took down the bench, opened the curtain, and said respectfully. Said: "Master, here we are."

The other celebrity held up a paper umbrella and waited on one side. Both of them were half bent, with respectful expressions in their eyebrows and eyes.

Chu Wanyou hugged Ao Ren and got out of the carriage.

knock knock...

One of them stepped forward and knocked on the door calmly.

With a creak, the door opened, and the people inside poked their heads out to look at the people standing outside, and took a closer look. When they saw Chu Wanyou, their eyes were dull...

With a beautiful face and elegant temperament, she is dressed in elegant and luxurious clothes, and her smooth curves undulate like mountains.

Her hair is high, with a gold hairpin stuck in her hairline, her face is like crystal jade, and her black and white pupils are like a pair of cold stars shining with deep brilliance.

And she was holding a toddler who looked about two years old in her arms. On her handsome and lovely face, a pair of dark pupils were quietly watching him, which shocked him and brought him back to his senses.

Hastily said: "Please!" The master has explained that no matter who comes these days, please come directly into the house.

But now the people who come here, anyone with eyes can see that they are either rich or noble.

Even the little child is amazing.

Chu Wanyou lightly raised her eyebrows, glanced at Ao Ren, and felt admiration in her heart, it seems that Ao Ren has kept in mind what she taught.

As an emperor, momentum is a must.

Stepping into the courtyard, the layout of this courtyard is in line with Li Zeshu's style of work, quiet and leisurely, in the middle of the busy city, but can have a unique quietness.

"Participant..." Li Zeshu walked out of the inner courtyard, looked at the person standing outside the window admiring the scenery of the front yard, took a step forward, and was about to salute, but was stopped by Chu Wanyou: "Why should Mr. Li limit these red tapes?" ? I came here uninvited, please forgive me for disturbing you."

Li Zeshu raised his head, and after being silent for a while, he smiled slightly: "In this case, it is better to obey Li's order than to be respectful, and Ms. Chu does not need to be seen, please sit down."

Chu Wanyou walked to the seat in the lobby and sat down. The proud man in her arms looked at the unfamiliar environment and the drizzle outside: "Mother..." Now he is interested in everything.

Chu Wanyou looked at the proud person's interest in the new environment, she raised her head and said: "Take the little master to watch the rain in the pavilion in the corridor."

"Yes" The two standing on one side respectfully took orders.

With his mother's permission, Gao Ren pursed his lips and smiled, stepped out of the porch, ran up the corridor, and stretched out his little hand to catch the drizzle.

Li Zeshu looked at the proud behavior, stood up and raised his hand to signal: "The gazebo in the front courtyard is a good place to enjoy the rain. If Miss Chu doesn't mind, please."

Sitting in the gazebo, looking at the proud man who stretched out his hand to catch the drizzle from time to time, Chu Wanyou smiled, but said to Li Zeshu who was sitting opposite her: "Mr. Li has traveled all over the world now." Compared with the ancient country, what is the definition of Ruifeng country in Mr. Li's mind?"

Ever since Ao Ren ascended the throne, Li Zeshu had returned to the ancient country, and he neither answered her nor rejected her.

After the first month passed, Lai Qing reported that he had appeared at the border of Ruifeng country, and he had visited all the small towns and small towns in the border for more than two months.

What he was investigating, she knew.

And she also knew what it meant for him to appear in Ruifeng country again.

Now that he has finally stopped in the capital of Ruifeng Kingdom, he has given her a clear answer, but even so, she still brings the proud man in person, instead of announcing him into the palace, or waiting for him to enter the palace see her.

This is undoubtedly her greatest sincerity.

Li Zeshu lowered his eyes and raised them again. Although his expression was calm, his tone was very serious: "As far as the heart is concerned, each has its own merits." The war in the ancient country was three years ago, and the power, manpower, and financial resources that replaced the Xiantong Kingdom were amazing ancient home.

It is not difficult for the Gu family to pacify the civil strife and appease the people, but the development in the past few years is also booming, except for the border people who have just settled down, most of the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the hearts of the people are stable and strong.

Military, economic, population, today's ancient country has essentially become the first of the three major powers from being tied for the top three.

He had to admit the power of the ancient family and the ability of the ancient emperor.

Basically, the status of the ancient country will not change too much. In all honesty, he is a native of the ancient country. With such a bright future, he should live the life he wants to live in the ancient country.

But her words about the richest man in Ruifeng country always echoed in his mind, which made him have to admire her grasp of people's hearts.

To be honest, he didn't want to stand too high, because the heights were too cold.

But seeing the stability of the world today, why wouldn't he not want to stand on a high ground justly?

Although the prospects of the ancient country are promising, half of most of the economy is the economic power accumulated by the ancient family for hundreds of years.

He believes that the inherent wealth of the Gu family is enough for the treasury of the ancient country to not need the taxes paid by merchants and common people like them for 50 years.

No matter how capable he is, he can't and won't stand upright in such an environment. Gu Ye's subordinates are full of talents and finances, and those who stand out rashly will not be very good.

Therefore, in the past two years, he secretly invested most of his money in Ruifeng Kingdom and Xiangyun Kingdom. After a while, he also gained a lot. He was involved in rice shops, money houses, and cloth...

When she asked to borrow 10 taels of gold, he was shocked, shocked by her purpose, and even more shocked by his value in her eyes.
