Chapter 377 Sweet Dreams
"We just need to start with those who can benefit from this. Even if the other party is really a fox, he will eventually reveal his tail."
Those who could attack the emperor must be vying for power or the throne, so the scope of investigation would be much smaller.
Duke Anguo had already done a quick screening in his mind and selected a few people who showed promise and potential, preparing to arrange for manpower later.
"Don't worry, leave this matter to an old man like me." Duke Anguo reached out and patted He Yanxiu on the shoulder.
It is most exciting to investigate those poisonous snakes hiding in the dark and expose the darkness in people's hearts.
Just thinking about it makes Duke Anguo full of energy.
He Yanxiu nodded, took a sip of the tea in the cup, and said solemnly, "Besides, there is one more thing I want to ask the Duke of Anguo."
Seeing that He Yanxiu's expression was even more serious than before, Duke Anguo straightened his back and said, "You can talk as you please."
"Does Duke Anguo know how to make a lot of money quickly?" He Yanxiu asked.
Duke Anguo, "..."
His expression was so serious, as if the sky was about to fall. Could it be that he just wanted to ask about ways to make money?
Have you forgotten that you are the Minister of Revenue? Isn't this the person who manages the purse for the entire court? If you don't know how to make money, who else can?
When the corners of Anguogong's mouth twitched to the point of cramping, he reached out and patted He Yanxiu's shoulder, "I do have an idea."
"What method?" He Yanxiu was overjoyed.
"Wait only three hours, wash up, take off your outer clothes, and lie down on the bed." An Guogong said, "Yes, it's best to choose a very comfortable pillow."
If the pillow is not suitable, I probably won’t be able to have such a beautiful dream.
He Yanxiu, "..." - The next day, Su Yujin resigned to Madam He, He Chengye and the Third Prince respectively.
As the year was coming to an end, everyone knew that Su Yujin wanted to go back to Qinghe to celebrate the New Year, and did not try to keep her. They just gave each of them some things as New Year gifts.
Old Madam He picked out many things from the storehouse, filling up almost half of the carriage.
He Chengye gave Su Yujin a painting that he had treasured for many years, which even He Yanxiu and He Yanzhou were reluctant to give to her, as well as a piece of good ink, for Su Yujin to use when keeping accounts or writing prescriptions.
The Third Prince also sent many things here - specially found in the palace, and many gold items begged from Concubine Shu.
Since the Lu family members were in the palace and it was inconvenient for them to come and see her off, they sent people to deliver some cloth, as well as pearls, agates and other items given by Concubine Shu.
In short, including the various things he bought, when Su Yujin was heading towards Qinghe, in addition to the carriage he was riding in, there were five other carriages following him that were specifically used to transport goods.
He Yanxiu and Su Yujin walked together towards Qinghe.
"Second Master, isn't he in Beijing preparing for the New Year?" Su Yujin inquired.
"My father and Yanzhou are at home preparing for it. As the year draws to a close, the roads are getting a bit uneasy. It's inevitable that someone will target you with all these things. We need to give them away." He Yanxiu replied.
Su Yujin felt that what He Yanxiu said made some sense.
But when they arrived in Qinghe and asked people to move things into the yard, Su Yujin saw a box.
It’s neither too big nor too small, and it’s square.
Su Yujin looked at it for a long time and asked Ai Cao, "Where did this come from?"
She didn't remember buying the box, nor did she remember what was in it.
"This was carried onto the car by Xing'an, who said it belonged to the Second Master." Ai Cao replied.
Second Master's stuff? Was it for her? Seeing that the box had no padlock, Su Yujin opened it to take a look.
Everyday clothes, shoes, socks, daily hair crowns...all kinds of things filled up a box.
Su Yujin, "..."
Some people say it is an escort, but in fact it means preparing to celebrate the New Year in Qinghe!
But it’s okay. Although the two of them saw each other often during this year, they were busy all day and rarely had the chance to enjoy the quiet time that normal couples should have.
Just... do it reluctantly.
Su Yujin closed the box and said, "Since it's Second Master's stuff, carry it to Second Master's room."
"Yes." Ai Cao and others responded and called a few more people to help.
Su Yujin and He Yanxiu were busy throughout the afternoon.
She would classify the things she brought back according to the list she had drawn up, then write on the signs and either have Ai Cao and others deliver them, or she would go to the houses in person.
It was not until it was completely dark that space was finally cleared in the yard.
Su Yujin was very tired, and He Yanxiu reached out to massage her shoulders.
After all, he is a martial artist. Even though he deliberately slowed down his strength at this moment, Su Yujin could still feel that He Yanxiu was very strong.
However, she was extremely tired at the moment, and this greater force made her feel more comfortable.
Mother Liu prepared dinner.
Candied date and sweet potato rice porridge, stir-fried bean sprouts, celery and dried tofu, twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts, and sweet and sour fish.
The long-lost home-cooked dishes and the long-lost craftsmanship made Su Yujin's appetite grow. She pulled He Yanxiu to enjoy the meal together.
"Where did Ai Cao go?" Su Yujin looked around but did not see Ai Cao.
"I just went to deliver something to the Feng family as requested by the young lady." Mother Liu replied with a smile, "She hasn't come back yet, so I don't think there's any need to leave her any food for a while."
After being separated from Feng Yuanhao for a few months, they must have missed each other very much. Feng Yuanhao practiced cooking a lot to feed Ai Cao. He must have cooked a table full of delicious dishes for Ai Cao to feast on.
What an enviable love, so sweet it makes your teeth fall out.
Su Yujin narrowed her eyes and smiled.
He Yanxiu's chopsticks reached Su Yujin's mouth, and on the chopsticks hung the sweet and sour fish that Su Yujin liked.
"All the thorns have been picked out, you can eat it without worry." He Yanxiu said.
Although he can't cook, he can feed people.
There is no need to envy others, the relationship between the two of them is even sweeter! Su Yujin swallowed the fish meat in one gulp.
The sweet and sour fish was just the right amount of sweet, and not at all greasy. ——The next morning, just after breakfast, a guest came to our house.
It’s Lou Yanlin and Xiaoguai.
No, to be exact, it’s Lou Yanlin and Lou Yansong.
The conditions of the two brothers were much better than when Su Yujin saw them before. Their faces were rosy and they looked energetic. Perhaps it was because they were reunited as brothers, as they both had big smiles on their faces.
As soon as they entered the door, the two brothers expressed their gratitude repeatedly.
"We were able to find Xiaosong thanks to Lord Ping'an." Lou Yanlin was very emotional, his voice was choked with sobs and he cried, "I don't know how to repay Lord Ping'an, but I thought I still have a skill, so I specially prepared these, I hope Lord Ping'an will not despise them."
As he spoke, Lou Yansong opened the boxes the two had brought.
Inside the big box were boxes of various sizes, each with a label on it.
Calming incense, moonlit laurel, goose pear scent in the tent...
There are many kinds, mostly more than a dozen.
It’s the last day of March. Thank you all for your support. I hope to continue to receive your support in April~ (End of this chapter)
