A bucket of Jiangshan [Rebirth]

Chapter 69: Gray Clothes

In the midsummer of July, the earth was scorching like fire. Since Yan Shulou left after it was abolished, it seemed that the burden had been lifted off the whole person. It was much more relaxed and had a lot of free time to accompany Du Mingqian.

Now that the war has stopped and the plague has been resolved, under the appeasement of Yan Shulou, the hearts of the people have been settled, and the face of the royal family has been restored. Jing Dynasty is now in peace and prosperity.

As soon as I had nothing to do, I thought about it, and after finishing the official business at hand, Yan Shulou jumped to Du Mingqian who was by his side, suddenly tore the book in his hand, threw it aside, and walked all the way to the On his body, he deliberately wiped the sweat from his head onto his face: "Mingyu is so hot!"

"You still posted it when you're hot," Du Mingqian couldn't laugh or cry about his behavior, and pushed his head away a little, so as not to let the two hot touch each other, and his whole body would be on fire. "Have you finished all your official duties? I just saw that you still have a lot of unfinished business." Woolen cloth."

"Don't do it anymore, it's too hot, Mingyu, you won't help me deal with it either!"

"As the so-called harem cannot interfere in politics, I will help you..."

"Wait, what did you say?" Yan Shulou interrupted Du Mingqian, "Repeat what you just said."

Du Mingqian was very suspicious, and repeated again: "As the saying goes, the harem cannot interfere in politics..."

"The harem meddles in politics! Hahaha," Yan Shulou clapped his hands in great joy, and kissed Du Mingqian, "I thought of a good way to bring down the good concubine! Mingyu, you are awesome."

Du Mingqian yawned lazily, wiped the water stains on his face and the sweat stains from Yan Shulou on Yan Shulou's clothes, and said without energy: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, but I only thought about it now."

Yan Shulou raised his eyebrows: "Huh? Could it be that you thought of it a long time ago."

Du Mingqian stroked a strand of long hair with one hand, and smiled happily: "Of course I thought of it a long time ago, I just want to see when you can think of it."

"Mingyu, you are getting worse and worse! If you have a good plan and don't share it with your husband, you are not qualified as a princess!" Yan Shulou was angry and took a big bite of Du Mingqian. Du Mingqian laughed loudly, hugged Yan Shulou with his backhand and said: "You Why do you blame me for being stupid. Speaking of which, do you have any good plans?"

"No, it's too hot right now, so I'm not in the mood!" Yan Shulou bit Du Mingqian's ear again. Feeling panicked by the heat, he took out a brocade handkerchief from Du Mingqian's arms, and wiped it on his face. Like a waterfall, it can stop on one side, but the other side is still flowing. He threw away the brocade handkerchief in a hurry, and simply wiped the sweat on Du Mingqian's body, asking him to wipe the sweat of the two of them together.

This is called husbands and wives who share difficulties and sweat together!

"It's so hot, get up quickly, I'll let Yan Xin serve a bowl of rock sugar water to cool off."

"No!" Yan Shulou held Du Mingqian back, wiped off his sweat, and said happily, "A few days ago, the chef in the house bought a batch of high-quality plums, which happened to be used to make rock sugar and sour plum soup. It's all right, I'll go back to your mother's house with you, and send these plums to your mother and sister-in-law."

Du Mingqian smiled back: "You are interested, thank you."

"Mingyu, thank me?" Yan Shulou seemed very happy, stretched his face over, and nodded, "Then what are you waiting for, come and kiss me!"

Du Mingqian lightly kissed him on the cheek, and when he was about to leave, Yan Shulou pushed his head down, causing him to kiss Yan Shulou's face heavily.

"Hahaha, I just wiped my sweat!" Yan Shulou suddenly pushed Du Mingqian away, and ran away quickly while he was in a daze.

Du Mingqian was annoyed, he chased after Yan Shulou and wiped the sweat off his face, the two of them fought for nearly a cup of tea before they stopped to pack their things and went back to Du Mingqian's mother's house.

When they arrived at Du Shilang's mansion, the steward who heard the news early came out to greet him. After Yan Shulou ordered Yan Xin to hand the plums to the steward, he dragged Du Mingqian into the mansion in a swaggering way. But Yan Shulou refused to let Du Shilang come out to greet him on the grounds that he was the elder.

Due to the previous quarrel between Du Shilang and Du Yugong, there is still a gap between the father and son. After Du Yugong got married, he moved the house far away from Du Shilang's house, so that he seldom saw him at other times except for meals. To Du Yugong, together with his wife Fang Yuyan, is also rare.

But for some unknown reason today, Fang Yuyan actually came out to meet after hearing the news, which made Yan Shulou suddenly pissed off.

After all, Fang Yuyan once admired Du Mingqian, although her heart has changed now, Yan Shulou still feels a little awkward.

Seeing Fang Yuyan speak with open lips, Yan Shulou subconsciously held Du Mingqian's hand, bringing the distance between them closer.

Fang Yuyan was also from a wealthy family, she was well-cultivated, and her eyes were very shrewd. Seeing Yan Shulou's guard against her, she smiled shyly, and chatted with Yan Shulou openly, without looking at Du Mingqian. Well avoided suspicion.

Later, for some unknown reason, Du Yugong was involved, Yan Shulou was stunned, Fang Du Yugong didn't come out to meet him.

"My husband returned from court this morning, but he hasn't returned yet." Fang Yuyan revealed a bit of worry in his words, "My lord, there are a lot of court affairs during this period of time?"

Yan Shulou's heart skipped a beat. Because Du Yugong had reported a large number of officials before, there was a major exchange of officials in the court and the Central Committee, and the work of picketing and reporting was reduced a lot. In addition, Du Yugong was promoted to the imperial doctor, and his affairs were much easier. Logic will not be very busy.It can be seen that Fang Yuyan speaks like this, and nine out of ten are Du Yugong who has not returned from court, which is already the norm.

"Well... I'm very busy. I sneaked here today, so I'll just sit and go!" Yan Shulou tactfully helped Du Yugong lie to avoid Fang Yuyan's worries.

"Really? Husband has been busy these days and rarely comes back, so I... have nothing to do," Fang Yuyan tried to smile, nodded and said, "I'm overthinking."

Yan Shulou was not in a good mood, Du Yugong was newly married, and if he didn't go home to accompany his wife, where would he be fooling around?

"What's unusual about him these days?" Yan Shulou followed the words with doubts in his heart.

Fang Yuyan paused for a moment, glanced at Yan Shulou, shook her head and said, "It's not unusual, but I often come home late, and when asked what he does, he only said that he was busy with business and couldn't get away."

Yan Shulou frowned. When he came back to the mansion this morning, he saw Du Yugong leave the palace and go back in the direction of the Shilang's mansion. Why didn't he go home?

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Eldest brother is not a child. He has his own plans." Du Mingqian comforted him in a timely manner, but unfortunately, these few words could not suppress Fang Yuyan's panic.

Seeing that her daughter-in-law was suffering, Mrs. Jiang panicked. Du Yugong really didn't make people feel at ease. Fang Chengqian left his new wife behind.So, she followed with a few words of comfort, and slowly untied Fang Yuyan's knot in her heart.

Yan Shulou saw that Fang Yuyan was in a bad mood, and he couldn't get in the conversation. After sitting for a while, he dragged Du Mingqian away on the grounds that he was busy with work.

A visit to relatives finally broke up due to the unhappiness of Du Yugong, whose whereabouts were unknown.

So, where did Du Yugong go?

It turned out that he turned backwards, ostensibly heading towards home, but after separating from the crowd, he turned a corner and entered a small path.

At the end of the trail, there was a remote and dilapidated house. Standing in front of the house, he looked left and right, knocked on the door lightly, exchanged slogans with the people in the house, and was welcomed into the house by the people in the house.

Then, he saw a man in gray sitting with his back facing him, that man was wearing a black gauze hat, his face was unclear, and a man stood respectfully beside him——He Zhao.

"You're late today." Before the man in gray could say anything, He Zhao sarcastically sarcastically.

Du Yu looked at him respectfully, and said coldly: "The journey is long, and you have just arrived."

"How do you know we've arrived not long ago?" the man in gray said suddenly, but still sat with his back to Du Yugong.

"It's windy and dusty here, and the footprints on the ground are still fresh. It can be seen that you have arrived not long ago, and the wind has not yet blown away the footprints."

"Good eyesight, I was right when I asked He Zhao to look for you." The man in gray waved his hand and asked, "Don't gossip, what's your opinion on the matter between Empress Li and the crown prince?"

"You came to me today just to talk about this?"

The man in gray didn't answer, but instead asked, "Is there a more suitable topic than this right now?"

Du Yugong sneered, but then asked He Chao, "What's your opinion?"

Speaking of this, He Zhao's face showed a bit of complacency: "Now there are only a few people who are competent, we naturally wait for the opportunity, and we will benefit from it when the snipe and clam fight. Can eliminate opponents."

"But what if they don't fight? Besides, some seem to be low-key on weekdays, but they are hidden opponents." Du Yugong retorted coldly, "Don't take it lightly. I think it's better to take the initiative than to wait passively. "

"What's your opinion?" The gray-clothed man slightly turned his head to look at Du Yugong behind him, obviously interested in what he said.

"First spread rumors among the people, saying that if there is no new queen and the prince in my court, it will bring bad luck to my court. Then let the ministers persuade and put pressure on the Holy One, and finally we will wait and see what happens, and see what the Holy One intends to do. Who will wait for the snipe and the clam to fight."

The man in gray was silent for a long time without saying a word, and did not comment on the views of the two.

After a long time, the man in gray suddenly stood up and walked out the door: "I'll consider this matter first, and make a decision later."

"Master, please go slowly." He Zhaoyi bent down to greet him respectfully, but Du Yugong's face was cold and expressionless.

He Zhao also wanted to leave, but Du Yugong stopped him and said coldly: "I hope you don't forget our agreement."

"Don't worry, the master will definitely do what he promised you. The day when the master comes to the world, it will be the time when you will have power. Farewell!"

Watching He Chao leave, the corner of Du Yugong's mouth twitched slightly.

It's tempting to have power.
