Marrying a powerful eunuch three times
Chapter 28: Su Mansion Discusses Countermeasures
Su Zhixun's expression remained unchanged, he stared blankly at the drizzling rain outside.
Lan Xuanji looked unhappy, "Who is guarding the corridor?"
"Xuan Ye."
Su Buyi stood up and walked to the window after hearing this, "Xuan Ye."
"Major General."
"Don't let anyone get close."
"Yes."
Su Buyi sat back and lowered his voice: "Tangtang, you can't say this casually. Do you know what crime you will be charged with if it gets out?"
"I understand. So I discussed a countermeasure with my uncle and grandfather."
Su Zhixun was a military commander, and he was not as clear about the affairs of the court as Old Master Su. "No doubt. You call a reliable person to call the old man back."
"it is good."
Su Buyi went out to arrange things.
Su Zhixun also realized that Su Rutang had not discussed this matter with Zhou Chengru.
He knew in his heart that his niece's marriage was not a happy one.
"Uncle, he..."
"Uncle. The ditches in the capital are seriously flooded. The ditches are piled up with silt and debris. They can't be drained to the moat as quickly as possible. The Ministry of Works should be held responsible for this, right?"
A collapse occurred in the previous life, which led to a plague.
As the Minister of Works, Zhou Chengru was naturally held accountable.
It was Mr. Su who managed to keep Zhou Chengru safe and sound.
"The Ministry of Revenue allocates money to the Ministry of Works every year to clean up the ditches, because the flooded areas are in the slums. Naturally, it will not cause a big impact, and the above few sentences can be used to evade it."
The lives of ordinary people are worth nothing in the eyes of those in power.
Lan Xuanji felt cold in her heart when she heard this. "I'm too timid to listen to you. Tangtang will have lunch at home. I'll ask the kitchen to make some dishes that Tangtang likes."
After a pause, he whispered:
"I'll make the red bean paste dumplings myself."
Lan Xuanji stood up after saying this.
"Zhixun, listen to Tangtang more. Give her some advice and don't embarrass the child."
Su Zhixun put down the teacup and said, "Got it."
They have been married for more than 20 years and are usually harmonious and loving.
Just one stick of incense.
Mr. Su came in.
As his attendants took off his cloak in the corridor, he could still be heard cursing, "That old bastard named Fang was lucky enough to win a point against me. Tomorrow I will kill him without leaving a single piece of armor."
Su Rutang stood up, walked to the door, and reached out to support him.
"grandfather."
Mr. Su immediately changed to a friendly smile. "My dear grandson. Why have you lost so much weight? That bastard Zhou Chengru treated you badly."
"He has some talent, but not enough generosity."
Old Master Su spoke softly. He had sent away many young people in the family. He also sent away his second son, whom he had worked hard to cultivate. The sharpness of his youth was long gone, and he became more and more smooth and experienced in the court.
He and the Minister of the Central Secretariat were nicknamed "Old Man Spirits".
Su Rutang gently told him about his dream last night and repeated what he had said to Su Zhixun before.
Old Master Su had a solemn and gloomy expression on his face and said nothing.
He stroked his beard with his right hand.
"The Minister of Industry is the Queen Mother's younger brother. He has been in this position for many years and has never made a big mistake. He has been very cautious all his life and just wants to retire safely."
"The ditch issue happens every year. Where does the money go?"
Old Master Su looked at Su Rutang.
"You mean the plague?"
"Yes. It's the plague that infects people, and I want Grandfather to think of a way. I have a prescription for the plague and a prescription for preventing the epidemic.
If sewage really accumulates in the swamps, someone in the court will have to speak up.
By the way, I distributed the plague prescription, bought some herbs, boiled them, and gave them to the people to drink.”
Su Rutang finished speaking in one breath.
The three men of the Su family felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. It seemed that Su Rutang's life in the Zhou family was not only difficult, but was simply walking on thin ice.
"About the ditch?"
Su Rutang stood up and bowed to Grandpa Su and the other two.
"The canal issue has not been resolved in previous years, and it probably won't be resolved this year. The Ministry of Works may have their own difficulties, but Grandfather is old and doesn't need to worry about it anymore."
"Rutang, if Zhou Chengru holds me accountable for this..." Su Zhixun looked at her.
"Grandfather, uncle. There are some things I cannot tell you right now, but the only thing is that I will not be in danger." Su Rutang opened the lid of the three-legged copper incense burner on the rosewood desk.
He took a piece of agarwood from the side and put it in.
Wisps of fragrance wafted out from the hollow places.
"Forget it. Give me the prescription for the epidemic." Grandpa Su's originally relaxed expression froze again.
Su Rutang sat at the desk and wrote it down.
The prescription in the previous life was thought out by Doctor Ke after he spent more than ten nights. Su Rutang spent those days trying to get Doctor Ke to accept Zhou Wenyan as his disciple.
Working as an assistant to Doctor Ke, they lived in an epidemic village where people died every day. From making herbal medicine to taking care of daily life, she never asked anyone else for help.
Her sincerity touched Dr. Ke.
But it did not impress Zhou Wenyan.
She wrote two prescriptions and stacked them up, one for treatment and the other for prevention.
"This is from the book that Doctor Ke gave me. It was written by Doctor Ke during his travels to various countries."
After Mr. Su took it, he felt relieved.
"If this is true, Dr. Ke has done a great deed."
The four of them talked for a while.
Then I heard Xuan Ye speak outside:
"Sir. Minister Zhou is here with two young masters."
Su Rutang: “…”
Mr. Su glanced at him calmly and said, "Take him to the front hall."
"Yes."
Mr. Su stood up and said, "I lost the game, and I'm not happy. I'm going back to rest."
The old man left through the side door.
Su Zhixun glanced at Su Buyi calmly and said, "I still have some military affairs to deal with, so I'm afraid I don't have time to meet my son-in-law. You young people get along well, so why don't you go over and talk to him first."
Su Buyi: "..."
"It wasn't like this when Minister Zhou came before. You and grandfather would always take time out to have a cup of tea with him."
"That's because I'm afraid he'll be indifferent to Tangtang."
Su Zhixun waved his hand, "Go out."
Su Rutang and Su Buyi looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
They walked out of the study together.
Walk to the front hall.
She was wearing a dark blue brocade gown with silver bamboo leaf patterns and a silver belt. Her three thousand strands of black hair were bound up with a white jade scarf.
"lady."
He was tall and straight and had the gentleness of a scholar. He walked over and extended his hand.
"You left in a hurry, and the two children are clamoring to come over to see their uncle." Zhou Chengru had a smile in his eyes, and he wanted to hold Su Rutang's hand.
Su Rutang pretended not to see it.
He turned and walked towards Zhou Wenqing and his brother.
"Since you want to come, why don't you come with me. Your father must be busy with a lot of official business on a rainy day. You should get up early too." Su Rutang said this first, making Zhou Wenqing swallow back the words "I'm chasing the carriage".
Zhou Chengru looked at his empty hands.
I felt a moment of loss, and then I thought that Su Rutang must not have seen it.
"I'll go pay my respects to the elders first."
"Let's go later. My brother is here." Su Rutang pointed to the back.
Zhou Chengru turned around. In his eyes, he looked down on Su Buyi's position as a major general. It was just that Su Buyi was lucky. He relied on his grandfather and father to get the position of a major general in the army.
"Big brother."
Su Buyi nodded, "Chengru is here. Let's go to the front hall to talk."
"Uncle, I want to practice martial arts." Zhou Wenqing came here just to practice Su family boxing.
"Let's do it another day. Your uncle drank too much yesterday and slept in the side room, exposed to the wind. He just drank a bowl of medicine, so I'm afraid he can't accompany you to practice boxing." Su Rutang refused indifferently.
Zhou Wenyi wanted to go to the Su family's library to read.
Seeing Su Rutang's unhappy expression, he stopped talking.
Following Su Rutang to the yard next door, Su Rutang asked his two half-brothers to play with them.
I came to Lan Xuanji.
Lan Xuanji already knew that Zhou Chengru was coming with the child, "Tangtang, why don't you let Taohua and Rongrui stay here for a few days?"
"No. I just said I picked them up."
Su Rutang didn't want to be separated from her child for a whole night.
