Chapter 22 Arrangements
Su Yuexi was thinking about it.
I found that the little maid who had just presented the pearl had not left yet.
Seeing her eyes, the little maid felt happy again and said to Su Yuexi,
"Madam, I ordered this servant to stay here to serve the young lady."
"Oh? What's your name?" Su Yuexi said to the little maid in front of her.
"This servant was originally the second-class maid of Wutong Courtyard, and my name is Cuishan. Now that I'm with the young lady, I asked her to give her a name."
Su Yuexi had no choice but to ask Xiang Xueying, "Sister Xueying, I wonder how I should name this maid?
Xue Ying replied: "Miss Hui, the young masters in our house are surrounded by two personal maids and four second-class maids .
" The name will be given by the master.
"Miss, you can give it a name according to your own preferences."
Su Yuexi nodded. Since she wants to be her personal maid, she must have a good name.
Thinking like this, she did not forget to boast casually: "Sister Xueying, your name is very nice."
Xueying said: "The slave's name was given by the madam. It was all given by the madam."
Su Yuexi smiled.
She thought that this was Tingfeng Courtyard, and when she entered the courtyard, she could see a clump of green bamboo.
"Why don't we call him Tingzhu." Su Yuexi said.
Xue Ying was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the name given to this young master who came back from the countryside was quite elegant and nice.
The little maid's eyes showed surprise, and she seemed to like the name very much. She said happily, "Tingzhu, thank you, Master, for the name!"
"No need to be polite," Su Yuexi said.
At this time, a woman outside brought a bowl of hawthorn and sour plum soup for digestion. The little maid took it and carried it into the house.
"Girl, this is the digestion soup that Madam ordered the kitchen to prepare for you."
Su Yuexi looked at the bowl of soup and couldn't help but said to 007 suspiciously:
[This soup is safe, it's not like Su Yueyan wants to die with medicine. Me? ]
"Host, there is nothing wrong with this soup. You can drink it with confidence." 007 replied.
Su Yuexi drank it with confidence. It was sour and sweet and tasted pretty good.
On the first day, I successfully checked into the Hou Mansion.
In the evening, Su Yuexi was served by the maids, changing clothes, washing up, and getting ready to sleep.
When the lights were all turned off, Su Yuexi got up like a dog again.
She, a short-sighted person, couldn't help but want to see the gold, silver, barley and pearls in her dowry.
But she didn't expect that there would be a maid keeping vigil outside the door.
As soon as she hit the ground, a sound came out.
The maid who was keeping watch at night asked her in a low voice outside the door, "Do you want to go to the toilet, young lady?"
This made Su Yuexi very depressed.
I had to wave my hand and say no.
Hey, how could she forget that she can retrieve things from afar?
With a thought from Su Yuexi, the three boxes in the dowry, including the five hundred taels of silver notes, were all put into the space.
Then she fell asleep contentedly.
As for Wutong Courtyard, Mr. Su Hou didn't come back until late at night.
"What's wrong?" Mu Wanqing asked in a low voice.
She had already rested, but the lights were turned on again in the room.
She was wearing a coat and sitting by the couch.
After changing his clothes, Lord Su came over and sat on her side.
At this time, there were only the couple in the room.
Su Houye replied in a low tone: "Time is too tight, I have tried my best to make arrangements."
"At the border and customs, I have sent secret letters to Peng'er and father-in-law respectively. Let them take precautions in advance. "
A group of people were secretly sent to secretly transport money and grain outside the customs."
"As for the arrangements along the way to exile, the matter should be safe."
Peng'er is Su Houye and Mu. Wan Qing's eldest son Su Yuefei, named Pengcheng.
He is the eldest son of Su Wuhou Mansion, known as Su Xiaohou Ye, and is currently stationed at the southwest border.
Su Houye's father-in-law, Mu Wanqing's biological father, was the first-rank general Mu Jianzhong. Although he is old, he is still stationed at the Eastern Customs.
Mu Wanqing felt calm after hearing this.
The Marquis has always done things well, so she doesn't need to worry too much.
But there was still one thing she was worried about, and she couldn't help but said: "But I heard from Xi'er that before you were exiled, your martial arts skills would be disabled and your lute bones would be broken. Is this really what you want to do?"
" If we sneak out of Beijing in advance..."
Lord Su shook his head after hearing this.
"Our Su family holds heavy troops at the border, and our family is the hostage of the Su family's army in the capital."
"Not only do I need to check the numbers every day, but I have to get approval from the cabinet at all levels even if I leave the capital. Do you think that the emperor Will you let our family escape? Every move of our family is under human surveillance."
"If we are found to have escaped from the capital, within half a day, the nine Su clans will be surrounded and suppressed by the imperial guards. It's hard to escape."
"It's better to take advantage of the new emperor's accession to the throne, thinking that everything is under control, and exile our family carelessly, if it costs me one person's injury to save the whole family's safety, it is worth it.
" It's a good idea to go and let the birds fly. We have money, food and soldiers outside the customs, so are we afraid that we will have no place in this troubled world?"
Mr. Su said with some hope.
He was also a little tired of this intrigue in the court.
He was born as the eldest son of the Hou family. As a Marquis, he has his own mission.
But if you can get freedom, it would not be bad to be a comfortable local emperor in a world far away from home.
It seems that a cunning rabbit will die and a lackey will be cooked, a fate that a general can never escape.
Therefore, the Su family has made arrangements since their ancestors and secretly hidden several treasure hiding places.
He also cultivated loyal secret guards and part of his private army.
After several generations, it has already reached a certain scale.
The Su family has no intention of turning back.
But if the emperor is unkind, the Su family will be attacked. Then the Su family's backhand must be used.
"But..." Mu Wanqing's eyes turned red.
"Madam, there is no need to say more, I have made up my mind." Lord Su stopped her words.
"It's just some physical pain. At my age, I will give up my martial arts if I give up my martial arts. My eldest son and second son have already made great achievements, so their lives are not in vain."
After hearing this, Mu Wanqing lowered his head and wiped it. Put away the tears.
