the next day.

The affairs in the capital are almost done, and Prime Minister Lin has been busy trying to win over the forces in the DPRK and China recently, so there is no time and no need to come and kill Fu Xiaobai again.

Just now Dabao from Fu Xiaobai's hometown came to her and said that he was going back, and asked when Fu Xiaobai would leave.Only then did I remember that I really had to go back and talk to my master before getting married.

Fu Xiaobai decided to ask the princess for instructions, and by the way, is the 500 taels reward for winning the first prize in the exam worth it?After all, the meal at Tianshun Building cost her 25 taels of silver, plus she was blackmailed by piano, chess, calligraphy and painting before, Fu Xiaobai's poor savings were about to disappear.

"My lord, my 500 taels of silver? That?"

"Huh? Xiaobai, in view of your poor performance yesterday, I might consider deducting a little bonus from you."

Zhao Yu'er kept looking down at the account book, and answered her in a calm tone.

"Woooooooooooooooooooo, my lord, I was wrong."

"Oh? Where did you go wrong?"

"I made a mistake in not thinking about your relationship with others."

"Well, what are you going to do next?"

"In the future, I will absolutely trust you, princess, with all my heart!"

"Well, I'm quite satisfied, go to the cashier to get 250 taels of silver."

Zhao Yu'er punished Fu Xiaobai this time, and judging from her reaction, the effect was not bad.

"Ah! Princess Princess, isn't it 500 taels?"

"Hmm, half of it will be used as a deposit. If you perform well in the future, I will give it back to you slowly."

This left half as a deposit, so that the other party would not dare to take the money and stop working. This trick was taught by Fu Xiaobai himself to the princess.

Fu Xiaobai wanted to cry but had no tears, it's all because his brain was too jumpy, maybe he was thinking crookedly.There is also that girl like Qing, who looks too dangerous, and she can hide as long as she can in the future.

"Of order, my lord princess."

Fu Xiaobai walked out of the room feeling aggrieved, and suddenly remembered that he came to ask about returning home.Turning her head hastily, she saw the princess looking at her with a gentle smile.She was dumbfounded,

"Princess, you are so gentle when you smile."

Zhao Yu'er didn't expect Fu Xiaobai to turn around suddenly. He was happy that he succeeded in punishing her just now, but he was caught in the end.

"Ahem, Xiaobai, is there anything else you can do?"

"Oh, princess, I'm here to ask you for instructions. I'm going to go back to my hometown and tell my master what happened here."

"Well, I have considered this matter. The affairs of the book club have been handed over to Zhao Hua, and the affairs of the imperial court will be gradually taken over by the special household department. After I finish handling it, I will accompany you back to your hometown in two days .”

Zhao Yu'er had discussed with Fu Xiaobai about decentralization before.At that time, Fu Xiaobai pointed out that the current Nanhai country is like a small family workshop, and the civil, military and wealth are in the hands of three forces, so it is impossible to go further.Therefore, her suggestion is to gradually establish a sound national system. In addition to dividing the power of the prime minister and general power, the financial power should also be in charge of a special department and be supervised by other departments.This means that the power in Zhao Yu'er's hands will gradually decrease, but she will also be able to gradually withdraw from the center of court disturbances and run the Bai Yu Publishing House with peace of mind.

Zhao Yu'er discussed Fu Xiaobai's suggestion with the emperor before the palace examination.The emperor expressed his satisfaction, but he also had doubts.

"Cousin, wait until the threat from the North Korean forces is completely removed. If you don't want to, let Fu Xiaobai dissolve the engagement and return you to freedom."

Zhao Yuer replied without hesitation,

"Brother Huang, I didn't regard this marriage contract as an expedient measure, so naturally I don't intend to dissolve it."

Zhao Qilin smiled, but he didn't expect her to be serious.That's all, after all, Zhao Yu'er's Bai Yu Publishing Club is still very influential, and it is inevitable that someone will have her idea.That's good too, with Fu Xiaobai, a powerless and powerless county horse here, it also saves a lot of potential troubles in the future.

Of course, in the end, the final winner is the emperor.But at least Zhao Yu'er got a promise from the emperor to keep the princess's family safe all his life.

"Hey, princess, do you want to go back with me?"

"Huh? Your master brought you up, so I should go to see you. In addition, we need to invite your master to come to the capital to witness our marriage."

"Oh, that's how it is. This, I have never been married and have no experience."

Zhao Yu'er suddenly felt that these words were a bit strange, since this is also her first marriage, okay?

"Neither have I."

After hearing the princess' answer, Fu Xiaobai smiled embarrassingly.

"That's that, it's all up to the princess's arrangement."

"Go and pack up first, we're leaving tomorrow. It should take about [-] days to go back and forth, and we'll be almost ready by then."

"Obey, my lord!"

the next day.Zhao Yuer and Fu Xiaobai set off.Zhao Qi and the previous secret guards accompanied secretly for protection, leaving Qin Shuhua to continue working in the bookstore. Although they also wanted to go out to play, the princess refused to allow it, so they had to give up.Fortunately, Fu Xiaobai became happy when he said that he would bring some special products to them.

This trip was all in casual clothes, and she didn't bring much, including the princess's marriage, so she meant to keep everything simple for the queen mother.We traveled fast all the way without encountering any danger, and arrived in less than ten days.

"Princess, look, there is Qingtong Town in front of you."

Fu Xiaobai pointed to the plaque in front, on which were written "Qingtong Town".Zhao Yuer nodded,

"Let's dismount and go into town."

It stands to reason that Fu Xiaobai, as the champion of the new division, should come back home in a splendid manner wearing brocade clothes, carrying big red flowers, and riding a tall horse.

But she did not notify the county magistrate in advance when she returned to her hometown, and the list of candidates in the autumn test was probably only delivered to the county magistrate today.Because when Fu Xiaobai and the others were resting at the roadside post station, they also saw the official messenger rushing to deliver the good news.

Suddenly seeing a pair of beautiful boys and girls leading a horse into the town, it naturally attracted everyone's attention.After a while, the crowd exclaimed,

"Isn't this Brother Fu from the Master's family!"

"Really, why didn't I realize that this kid is not bad looking before."

"Boss Bai? Boss Bai, you're back!" Several little kids rushed up to surround Fu Xiaobai.

"Ermao, Sanmao, I haven't seen you for a few months and you have grown taller again."

"Hey, Boss Bai, you look so handsome in this suit."

Fu Xiaobai was praised and laughed proudly.

"Hahaha, you two still have eyes."

After she finished speaking, she secretly slipped two strings of coins to the little furry boy, and asked them to buy candied haws to eat, and the two children ran away happily.

Seeing Fu Xiaobai like this, Zhao Yuer looked like the little boss in a town.

"Unexpectedly, our number one scholar is still a king of children." Zhao Yu'er couldn't help teasing her.

Fu Xiaobai scratched his head in embarrassment, and said,

"My lord, you have learned how to make fun of me."

"Hmm, you don't need to call the princess outside, just call me Yu'er."

"Yu, Yu'er." I don't know why Fu Xiaobai felt a little ashamed shouting from his mouth.

It was the same for Zhao Yu'er, hearing Fu Xiaobai call her by her name was inexplicably different.

"Brother Xiaobai, you are finally back!"

A call pulled the two of them back, only to see a young woman in green running towards Fu Xiaobai lightly, and was about to jump on her.

Oh, I feel that the next situation may not be so good~
