"Yingzhou, Fuzhou? That's the border!"
Qi Yun held the bath towel for back rub in her hand, and looked at her husband lying in the bathtub with a calm expression on her pretty face in astonishment!
"Well, Governors of the two governments, the imperial edict has been issued, and the officials are formulating strategies. This is our last reunion year in the capital! We will leave in the spring next year!"
Qi Yun was a little flustered: "Why would His Majesty, who is so good, send you to guard the border in Yingzhou and serve as the governor of the two provinces? Even a third-rank Hubu doctor in the capital can take on this important task. You are not only the Duke of the country, but also the Minister of Hubu Yu Qing. You shouldn't be allowed to think that the second-ranking Minister of Household Affairs, Zuo Shilang, is going to the north!"
"Is it because my husband, you, went to court for three days to fish and two days to dry the nets these days have made His Majesty dissatisfied?"
"It has nothing to do with those things. Being a husband is just a stepping stone. Many people in the court who see jokes about being a husband won't be able to see it for long, and they will soon become a joke in the eyes of others!"
"No matter how favored your father is as your husband, it can never change the fact!"
Qi Yun'e frowned slightly, and gently wiped her husband with the towel in her hand again!
"The king is the king and the minister is the minister. No matter how you are His Majesty's closest minister or His Majesty's son-in-law, it still cannot change the fact that you are a minister of the Li family!"
"Yun'er!"
"Huh? Husband, tell me!"
"Except for you, I haven't told anyone in the family about this matter. Lian'er and the others have heard about it from the outside. Don't tell them, especially Yan'er. Yan'er is smart as ice and snow, but she is... In front of my husband, I take care of my husband and raise my children with peace of mind, and never ask about my husband's affairs in the court!"
"Once Yan'er learns about this matter, she will definitely be able to guess the reason why her husband went to guard the border with her intelligence. If she is dissatisfied with her husband and goes to her father to intercede, something will happen unexpectedly!"
"My father is most afraid of others being able to guess his thoughts! Not even Yan'er. Yan'er is now a member of the Liu family. If she finds her father, he will only be dissatisfied with her husband, not her. dissatisfied!"
"Even if we know, we can only pretend to be confused because we understand!"
"I understand, I will definitely keep my mouth shut!"
"Yun'er, I'm sorry for you husband. Just a few years ago, I have to change places again!"
"Husband, I don't care. As long as I can stay with you, I am willing to go anywhere. I think Sister Lian'er and the others think so too!"
"Silly girl, the more tolerant and generous you are, the worse it will be for your husband! In these years of fighting in the east and west, traveling around and around, you have never stayed at home properly. After two years of stability, it is not easy to go to northern Xinjiang. I know what kind of changes we are going to face! I have to make you worry and fear again, and I feel guilty as a husband!"
"My mother-in-law couldn't bear to leave me. It took a lot of effort to get most of the business from Jiangnan to the capital and establish a foothold in the capital. Now she has to leave again!"
"It's bitterly cold in the north. The old man is determined not to let him follow him any longer. What on earth have I been doing for my husband all these years!"
"Husband, father and mother will understand you. As a subject, you can't help yourself. There is nothing you can do about it!"
"Fortunately, I can see Shan'er when I go to Yingzhou. This silly girl has always been unwilling to stay with her husband, but now she can't even run away!"
"Sister Shan would be so happy if she knew you were going to Northern Xinjiang. How can you express your love for each other through letters written twice a month? Now we can finally get along face to face for several years!"
"Yes! Not only Shan'er, but also Yue'er politely said that it would be convenient to meet her husband. We can talk across the Shanhaiguan Canyon. If you think about it carefully, although this trip is a farewell, it is not a reunion at all!"
"In life, encounters are unpredictable, and there are always gains and losses!"
"Since this time, my husband, isn't it...?"
"Dangdang..."
"Master, can Xiaosong come in?"
"come in!"
"yes!"
"Xiaosong has met the young master and the young madam!"
When Qi Yun saw Liu Song coming in, she responded with a faint smile, put down the towel in her hand, and walked consciously behind the screen.
Whenever Liu Mingzhi talks about business, Qi Yun will consciously avoid suspicion. This has been a habit developed over the years!
"Master, the Marquis of Guannei has delivered the banknote, one and a half million taels!"
"Why so much? I roughly estimate that the dividend is less than one million taels!"
"Master Zhu said, Master, if you suddenly ask for dividends, you must be in an emergency. These five hundred thousand taels are what he wants. Recently, there have been too many caravans heading to the Western Regions, and he doesn't have much money in his hands. Wait. Come over and give the young master another two million taels!"
Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes, with a touch of emotion!
He didn't help Zhutou in vain back then. Zhutou could trust himself so much, which can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous thing!
"Leave two hundred thousand taels and send the rest to Han Zhong over the East China Sea. Tell him to go all out to cast cannons and produce muskets. If anyone has a different intention in life, in order to prevent the news from leaking, he can do it if necessary. ...You can...kill people and silence them!"
"But the funeral arrangements must be made well to give his family a prosperous life!"
"yes!"
"Take the letter under my clothes on the table with you. Han Zhong will know how to do it!"
"Yes, Master, do you have any other instructions?"
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a moment: "Yun'er, pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"
After a while, Qi Yun walked out with the Four Treasures of the Study. Liu Song hurriedly put away the letter and greeted her: "Young Madam, here is Xiao Song!"
Qi Yun handed the tray to Liu Song without hesitation and retreated behind the screen again!
Liu Mingzhi stood up straight away, wiped off the water stains on his hands, started writing with a pen, and after finishing writing, threw the brush onto the tray!
"Send it to my grandpa by taking a detour to Bai's house in the East China Sea! If my grandpa doesn't reply, just think that the young master has never written this letter and forget it completely in your mind!"
"Xiaosong understands, Xiaosong resigns!"
"Yun'er, please prepare some clothes for me!"
"I know, what clothes does your husband want to wear?"
"Zhiju!"
"Su Jin's?"
"Okay, oh! By the way, don't lose that coarse cloth shirt, let the maid wash it!"
"knew!"
After a cup of tea, Liu Mingzhi changed into spotless clean clothes under Qi Yun's service. After Qi Yun tied the jade pendant for her husband, Young Master Liu returned to the appearance of a handsome gentleman!
"Madam, let's have some porridge with Sister Ya tonight!"
"Bah, shameless!"
Liu Mingzhi knew that Qi Yun's reaction meant that he agreed, and he laughed happily: "Let Sister Ya practice the Yin and Yang Harmony and Great Compassion, otherwise it will be too much for my husband!"
"I know...I know!"
"I can finally take revenge on my husband. Let's see if Sister Ya still dares..."
"Boohoo!"
Liu Mingzhi's expression changed slightly, and he pinched Qi Yun's nose lovingly: "Madam, please go to the yard for your husband. You can tidy up the room first!"
"knew!"
"Suzaku meets the young master!"
Liu Mingzhi closed the study door and looked at Suzaku quietly: "What's going on?"
Suzaku leaned into Liu Mingzhi's ear and whispered. After a moment, he looked at Young Master Liu solemnly: "Master, how should I deal with it?"
"Where are people?"
"Qinglong Xuanwu has detained him in the house in the south of the city!"
Liu Mingzhi poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it in one gulp, tapping his fingers lightly on the table!
"Are you sure this person is looking at the creek's residence with a telescope?"
"Suzaku promises that if it weren't for the reflection of the telescope, my subordinates wouldn't be able to detect it!"
"Spy, spy, father, what do you want me to do?"
Liu Mingzhi closed his eyes and pondered motionlessly!
Zhi'er, your aunt is willing to lay down her life for you. For her sake, don't have any complaints in the future!
My sister has been grabbing things from Xiaoxi, so it’s time to give her something she wants!
Liu Mingzhi Mu Ran opened his eyes: "Is there a tail?"
"Qinglong Xuanwu's hands and feet are clean and no one notices!"
"Then kill him!"
"Yes, Suzaku resigns!"
"etc!"
"Master?"
"Send a letter to my aunt and see what she means!"
"Follow the order!"
