"Mr. Zhong also reminded me of this." But Du Hui was no longer just a guest to her. She regarded him as a close friend, a teacher and a friend.
Knowing that a net was coming towards him, how could she just sit there and do nothing?
But what could she do? Even Mu Cong was being manipulated at will. She was just an ordinary person, her bones weighed less than two taels. She rushed forward without thinking, and she probably didn't even know how she died.
"Be obedient." Lou Yunchun held her hand. "Do your business well and publish your book. Leave the rest to me. Even if I can't succeed, there are saints above us." To ease her worries, he added, "Their ultimate goal is to restore the old system, but this will be impossible unless the world turns upside down. As long as we follow the will of the saints and the people and act in accordance with the great principles, we will not be afraid of any conspiracy or calculation."
Hearing this, Xu Jiang felt much more at ease. As he said, the emperor's heart and the people's will are like true gods. No matter how evil spirits and monsters dance, they will eventually disappear under the bright light.
Lou Yunchun raised his hand to wipe away the worry from her brow and asked, "How are the preparations for tomorrow's book feast going?"
"Thanks to Zeng Zhui's help, it's basically done. There's still time to do the rest tomorrow morning."
"Is there anything else I can help with?"
"Take a rest. You haven't had an easy time these past few days. Liang Mo and I will take care of the rest. We each have our own responsibilities and just do our own things well."
Lou Yunchun kissed the back of her hand and said, "Don't overwork yourself."
He can't come tomorrow. The court is on holiday, but he won't. The bookstore fraud case was just transferred to the Dali Temple today. Over the past two days, the Censorate has seized the opportunity to impeach Minister of Rites Zhou Huai. The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel are trying to find a guarantor. The Dali Temple must verify the evidence as soon as possible and then file a case to sentence Zhou Huai to death.
There is the will of the saint in this, but there is also his selfish motive.
"You too." Xu Jiang touched the two pale blue spots under his eyes, feeling a little distressed. "Why don't you go back and rest earlier?"
Hearing this, Lou Yunchun pursed his lips, his eyes flickering, then he rubbed her hand and said, "I haven't slept on this wooden couch since it was built."
Xu Jiang's hands froze on his burning face, "Oh..."
The two of them were hesitant and sticky, but in the end, they cleaned up the wooden couch together.
Xu Jiang went into the house to get the bed mat, quilt and mattress, all of which were newly bought.
After the wooden couch was laid out, Xu Jiang actually calmed down. This couch itself was made for Lou Yunchun, so he could rest if he wanted. Constant running back and forth would be unbearable for even the healthiest person.
Xu Jiang turned to look at him, and seeing his face and ears flushed, her heart softened inexplicably. She walked over and tapped his forehead, saying with a gentle smile, "What are you standing there for? Since you're staying, go wash up quickly. There's hot water on the stove."
Lou Yunchun touched his forehead, then pecked her on the cheek and went to the kitchen through the small door.
Xu Jiang leaned against the small door and looked at him. He turned back as if he had sensed something, and suddenly he seemed to have lost his way and almost fell off the eaves of the corridor.
"Watch your way carefully."
It would have been better if he hadn't reminded her, but after being reminded, Lou Yunchun slammed the door with a bang.
"Oh, my God!" She ran over quickly, "Are you okay?"
"……fine."
When Lou Yunchun came out of the shower, a big bump appeared on his forehead.
Xu Jiang couldn't help laughing while applying medicine and massaging him.
Now, she finally saw Lou Yunchun, who was teased by the "trickster" that Yin Yin mentioned.
