agent dressed as brother

A month and a half later, several people returned to the palace safely. I don't know what Zhou Yuhuang and Zhou Zhong had discussed in secret. On the second day, Zhou Yuhuang specially allowed Zhou Yiyun's family to return to the mansion. The daily life is all under the name of Zhou Yiyun, and he has an additional responsibility to take care of Zhou Zhong's retirement, raise Zhou Xuming to grow up and become a talent, Liu Xu couldn't help saying in the quiet time: "I can also count as saving someone's life." , I didn’t expect to be relied on for a lifetime.”

Zhou Yiyun also felt a headache about his father's arrangement: "It's also for the children and grandchildren. I discussed it with the old prime minister. In the future, I will read it as a companion for Baobao. Don't let him be distracted when he is old, sir. If you haven’t taken care of Grandpa Huang, you should be filial to his old man.”

A few days later, when Liu Xi went to the mansion to talk about it, he heard about this arrangement: "What is the eleventh prince's plan?"

"Wait and see what happens." Zhou Yiqu was still in the state of having nothing to do with himself.

"At this point, you should also fight for it."

"Don't worry, wait for your father to arrange it. As a prince, how can you go to the front of the Holy One." Zhou Yiyun tapped the table: "It's almost Chinese New Year, you should go to see your father-in-law."

"The slave has exactly this intention." This is the advantage of smart people's conversation. They don't need to talk too much, but it is enough for the other party to understand at a glance.

Since knowing that Yuqing has returned to Beijing, Bubu and Xiaoxiao have completely thrown themselves into her arms, and Liuxu is also happy to have nothing to do. He has nothing to do with Zhou Zhong, the old prime minister of Yibao in the Fuzhong, "playing with mountains and rivers". Official business, but also busy with entertainment Since Zhou Zhong came to the eleventh prince's mansion, the princes in Beijing often visited the mansion. Although Liu Xu never faced him, he knew that their visits were not aimed at Zhou Yiyun. Zhou Zhong continued to carry forward his Style, answering every question, helping to solve doubts, as if Zhou Yuhuang let him out of the palace just to let him serve the public.

Dali Temple Qing's wife, Yuqing's mother also often used the name of visiting her daughter to go to the house to thank the Eleventh Prince's House for taking care of Liu Xi and his wife, and occasionally asked about the direction of the court. He cares for his righteous sister out of sincerity. The key is that Yuqing can see herself clearly and act according to righteousness. Whenever she meets Zhou Yiyun in Qingyunsai, she retreats far away, distances herself, sincerely protects Liu Xu, and completely defines herself. As a little girl, she treats the three children as if she has already left. Seeing that they don't go back home all day, you can see how deep their relationship is, but she doesn't want to know more about her natal catkins. It can't be a good start. He believes that Liu Xi and his wife can handle these family affairs by themselves.

During the cold winter hunting moon, Zhou Yifeng married his wife and got married. Zhou Yiyun and his three children came to the scene in person. Liu Xu didn’t care about those three aunts and six wives. He would rather watch Ling’er embroider. It’s more interesting. Situation, smiled and shook his head: "Uncle Twelve's wife is pitiful."

Zhou Zhong asked while checking his bag and homework, "How do you say it?"

Xiaoxiao continued to shake her head: "I'm so weak, if there is a fight, she is no match for Uncle Twelve."

"Your twelfth uncle married a daughter-in-law to live, not to fight." Liu Xu corrected with a smile, so that Zhou Yifeng could definitely hear the complaint.

"No, don't you and your father always fight?"

"Then let's discuss."

Zhou Zhong smiled and narrowed his eyes. He is very loyal to the jokes that are amused every day. After living for a few months, he can understand that the people in this mansion do not treat them as guests, but family members. Look at the same The smiling great-grandson gained a lot of weight, and he got up early every day to exercise together and became stronger. In this environment, I can really live to the time when I hold my great-great-grandson.

"Grandpa, you see that daddy said he couldn't beat me and wanted to punish me physically." Xiaoxiao hugged Zhou Zhong's arm and began to play coquettishly. He knew who was the biggest in the house, but when grandpa stared at him, daddy didn't dare to speak.

Zhou Zhong didn't attend the New Year's palace banquet, and Liu Xu also voluntarily stayed behind. Calling Liu Xi's family was also very lively. Liu Xu used the excuse of taking care of Zhou Zhong to keep a low profile. This excuse is so powerful and inviolable.

In March of Yangchun, Zhou Yuhuang decreed that the annual hunting event will be held three days later. It is said that the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty won the world by force. The system is also inherited from history, reminding future generations not to forget the family skills, don't ruin the foundation of the ancestors, and neglect riding and shooting. This year's mount is the Eastern Zhou Dynasty horse that Chen Tiezhu paid tribute to.

After Liu Xu saw off the Twelve Princes and Concubines, she asked Yuqing, "What do you think of her?"

Yuqing stroked her belly lightly, and smiled softly: "She has an idea. The daughter of the prime minister also learned some tricks."

"On the day of the twelfth brother's wedding, the royal father also came to the scene in person, and it was considered as a way of giving face to the prime minister of the married daughter. The twelfth sister-in-law of the prince's house also walked around, and did not treat one more than another. This is better than I thought back then. I offended a bunch of people in the backyard."

"Master, do you like this approach?"

"People who follow the wind and control the rudder, who are able to find the right way, live longer. It seems that the twelfth brother doesn't like her. You can see that there are no strings of tears. It makes people feel distressed. I don't believe that she will go to other places." The Prince's Mansion does the same thing."

Yu Qing looked at Liu Xu and asked softly, "The Twelve Princes..."

"That's their father's business, as long as we can live on the surface."

Comparing the two, Liu Xu is still optimistic about the man in the mansion. It is better to speak honestly than sweetly. Empress Tong, the crown prince, and the prime minister are closely related to each other. If one person makes a mistake, the thread will be broken.Glancing at Yu Qing's big belly: "You don't have to go to the house these few days, it's not convenient for you to move around, so just ask the maid to report if you have anything, your natal family also likes you, those kindnesses and resentments Yeah, let it go if you can."

"My master said that when I went back to my mother's house a few days ago, they were very polite and made up for the dowry. But you know that everyone in the family is used to being frugal, so they don't need anything."

After Zhou Yiyun returned to the mansion in the evening, Liu Xu told the story of the twelfth sister-in-law's visit to the mansion. Zhou Yiyun sneered: "It's not enough sincerity to find relatives and friends after a few months of marriage. His father got rejected one after another, so she started Contact the feelings of various governments."

"Twelfth brother, he..."

"She cried to you. She did her homework quite well. With the temper of the twelfth brother, I'm afraid their house will be in chaos tonight. I'm afraid she will become the second person living in seclusion in the side courtyard."

"Then who is No.1..." Liu Xu stretched out her voice, and looked at Zhou Yiyun from a closer distance with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

Zhou Yiyun hurriedly gave a big bear hug: "Don't you feel sorry for me, sir, and protect you? My sons are so old, why do you still mention this? By the way, don't let it go when you hunt tomorrow. If they find out, my father will be afraid." There will be internal chaos in our house tomorrow."

6-year-old Bubu and Xiaoxiao have put liberal arts on their agenda since they worshiped Liu Xi as their teachers, and the time of day is no longer according to their temperament. Insufficient, Liu Xu thought of this and talked to Zhou Yiyun: "Is it possible that when the two babies were in the belly, the good ones were absorbed by Bubu, why is there such a big difference?"

Zhou Yiyun poked his neck: "What nonsense, I like to laugh at that kid the most. His appearance follows you, his temperament is very similar to your father, and he has a sweet mouth. Who doesn't like him? What's wrong with lack of concentration? Cultivate your mind and cultivate your character." Understand?" Said his son, he really didn't want to, but when he saw Liu Xishi the next day, he reiterated to Xiaoxiao's education: "No matter how naughty that kid is, he should be punished and not let him develop those bad habits." Look left and right Didn't see the "enemy situation," and hurried to the gate of the mansion, Liu Xi looked at the sky where there were still stars, and asked Wang Fan who was jogging together in the morning, "Eleventh Prince is really getting more and more diligent, it's not even daylight yet. Just go to court."

"The little master in the mansion knows that hunting is about to happen, and he also wants to join in the fun. Isn't the eleventh prince afraid of being caught, he has always been kind to the little master."

The palace has already set off, and the princes and ministers in the long dragon-like team are all marching to the deep mountains and old forests. Zhou Yuhuang gave an order, and the horns were blown. Everyone galloped between the mountains, forests and grasslands, the horses neighed, and they flew Arrows rained like rain, and swords in hand ran and shouted, and the pursuit and fierce battle were fruitful.Zhou Yiyun stood at the peak overlooking the mountain. The peaks are in various poses and with different expressions, lush and lush. Looking around, the tops of the mountains are connected one by one, surrounded by dense leaves, full of vitality, swaying in the wind, towering dangerous walls, and confronting strange peaks. It is indeed majestic and beautiful.Eleventh brother patted Zhou Yiyun's arm: "Eleventh brother, the first few emperor brothers have already sharpened their knives, raised their bows and shot arrows to show off their heroic postures. Is it really good for us to blow the cool breeze? Look at the old twelve. Snoring, it seems that yesterday was quite noisy."

"Brother Ten, look at this mountain, it seems that you can't see the edge, how majestic it is." Zhou Yiyun expressed his emotions, and glanced at Zhou Yici, who was rolling his eyes, and immediately reassured: "Trust me."

"Yes, I was led by you. Hey, Brother Eleven, you can't just mess around every night. Look at all this energy wasted. You can't even lift your bow. How can you do it in the future?"

Zhou Yiyun seemed to be talking about his thoughts, and he smirked: "Brother Ten has seen this? It looks like you are someone from here."

"Stop smiling, ever since the old prime minister Zhou Zhong lived in your residence, I always feel that something is wrong. Eleven brothers who are redundant don't ask, but you have to promise me what you want to do, and you must do it right away. Let me know, Brother Ten can also tell you the truth, right?"

Zhou Yiyun held his mouth and wanted to cry but felt aggrieved: "Brother, give me a hug."

As soon as the assembly horn sounded, the scattered people gathered in one place, and all kinds of birds and beasts were thrown on the ground either dead or injured. Zhou Yuhuang laughed and praised: "The roots left by our ancestors have not been abandoned, and riding and shooting are still the same, not bad. .”

The prince hurriedly stepped forward to talk about the process of shooting and killing, and talked about the experience of capturing and besieging with a brilliant tongue. The three Gui brothers stopped their boasting and sneered. The tenth brother lowered his head and refused to face the reality.Zhou Yihuang shot cold arrows at the three of them angrily, and the sixth prince sneered and said: "The eleventh brother is really majestic, this prey dare not come forward, if you see you, run around, otherwise, why would you have nothing in your hands? ?” Last time, because he let himself lose face in front of his father, he not only left Shang Ruiguo to deal with diplomatic affairs, but also found that the twelfth younger brother was already ahead of him when he returned to the Ministry of Rites.

Zhou Yiyun knelt down to Zhou Yuhuang with a dignified and mournful expression: "Father, it is now spring, and birds and beasts are multiplying. My son and I can't bear to kill for fear of seeing the harmony of the sky. The tenth brother and the twelve younger brothers also don't want to go against the law of the growth of all things on the earth. Why not change the hunting from spring to autumn, when everything is harvested, and when you go hunting again, you can harvest fur for your own use."

I don't know if his self-defense will be effective, but in the end he got Zhou Yuhuang's big eyes and the hard work of distributing prey to the soldiers in Fengshan.Zhou Yiyun, who had made up for the sin of laziness, returned to the mansion with the remaining small pieces of meat, took a battle bath and hurriedly served it, the chopsticks were flying around, and Liu Xu complained to Zhou Zhong: "There is no gold, and no one is perfect. "

The three children also expressed their opinions one after another: "If you are not good at riding and archery, you will be cast aside."

"Although killing is a crime, it can also be considered in sentencing." Bubu

"Father is so bad, I can shoot a few birds with a gun at will." Xiaoxiao

Zhou Yiyun stopped his movements and dismissed the ridicule of several people: "My father is not blind or deaf, what do you know?" After exaggerating his expression, he looked at the powerless wife and children who were complacent, and continued to eat .

Zhou Zhong smiled indifferently: "Although it is a trivial matter, it is good to dare to innovate. Can the Holy Majesty approve of your remarks?"

"Cough, I was punished." Zhou Yiyun had just finished speaking, and the children roared with laughter.Liu Xu glanced at Zhou Zhong, didn't interrupt them, just glared at the children, then handed the wet handkerchief to Zhou Zhong who put down his chopsticks.

Wiping the corner of his mouth, Zhou Zhong said softly, "The first time I saw you, it was like seeing the Supreme Emperor when he was young."

"To be disrespectful, this look has caused a lot of trouble." Zhou Yiyun gave up eating when he put down his chopsticks, and sat and listened to him.

Zhou Zhong ignored his seemingly dissatisfied muttering, and continued: "When the Supreme Emperor was in power, he really despised his misbehavior. With a cute little face, he did messy things. At that time, the open space outside the Chaoyi Hall was the place where the Supreme Emperor was often punished to kneel. It felt abnormal if he didn't appear there for three to five days. It's the top position."

"The world has been like dust, floating flowers in the sky and dreams in the body, how can it be distinguished by the dragon's face, and only the eyes of the sky should know heaven and man."

"The old man knows that Liu Xu has such a talent." Liu Xu's plagiarized work was greatly praised by Zhou Zhong, so he could only smile awkwardly and change the subject: "Tomorrow I will give you old fried steak, The delicacy praised by the saints."

"Okay, okay." Liu Xu took a deep look at him and didn't continue the conversation. Ever since Zhou Zhong entered the mansion, he hadn't mentioned Zhou Yiyun. As a veteran of the three dynasties, Liu Xu didn't think that he was just eating and waiting to die as he appeared on the surface. What is he waiting for?Waiting for Zhou Yiyun to ask?automatic action?He should only want to be a guide but not a promoter.

Zhou Yiyun looked down at the circles Liu Xu had been drawing after returning to the room, and nodded his chin. He looked up and down and looked at it from a distance, but he didn't understand what it meant. He lost his patience and took out the paper and asked, "Xu'er, are you still here?" Mark it?"

Liu Xu snatched it back, folded it and put it aside: "I want to find a husband's house for Xiaoya. Seeing that everyone else has a good home, I, as the master, have to think about him. He has suffered a lot with me. , and I don’t want to refer to anyone casually, it’s been so many years since I chose to choose.”

"Master, you are too picky. There is one ready-made one. Wang Fan looks good. That kid is always peeking at Xiaoya and you didn't notice it? Besides, most people follow their parents' orders. When it comes to his How can you have a good family at your age."

Liu Xu pondered for a while: "Wang Fan is good, but he is working too hard."

"There are no elders in his family, and no brothers and sisters to take care of him. When will he be able to make a comeback when he is alone and does not work hard."

"Okay, it's good that I can be with you in the future. If Xiaoya wants to leave, I don't feel at ease."

As soon as Wang Fan heard the news, he immediately handed over all his belongings to Liu Xu and let him handle it with full authority.On the other hand, Xiaoya put in a lot of thought. He was determined to die alone, and he only wanted to be with Liuxu forever. He persuaded him every day and finally nodded in agreement after half a month, and put forward the condition that he would never leave the house. Liuxu couldn't get used to it. Let's go, we can only leave the renovation of the side yard to them to live in.Liu Xu still feels a little bit reluctant when he thinks about the former side yard, which is the place he just arrived at.
