(The previous chapter is missing, released in a few days)

In the inn, Zhu Qu's name changed from "Little Langjun" to "good brother". His determination was not shaken at all. He insisted on cutting off contact with Cao Hua, and no matter how hard he tried, it was useless.

On the way back from the inn, Zhu Qufei's face was always red. Without the shyness of an ordinary little girl, she still scolded Cao Hua, saying one by one, there was no reason or clue, it was just a way to relieve her emotions.

Cao Hua has been used to it for so long since he has been in contact with him, so he just nodded and responded.

While talking, Zhu Qufei rubbed her stomach from time to time. She looked obviously thinking about things, and her face occasionally turned red, but she was afraid that he would find out.

Cao Hua was probably wondering if he could have a secret child and give birth to a son and daughter, so that even if he never meets again, he could have some sustenance. I am sure that Concubine Qu is smart, but when he is not on guard against others, he is really easy to guess.

After leaving Taiping Town, he left Xuzhou's territory.

Go to Jiangnan to the south, and Bianjing to the west. Zhu Qufei took the carriage and left staggeringly.

Cao Hua was originally planning to go to Jiangnan, but he just spent some time off. It was not a separation from life and death, so he naturally didn't care much.

Unexpectedly, this would cause trouble. Concubine Zhu Qu was about to never meet again as soon as she left. As a result, she found that Cao Hua didn't even say goodbye, so she felt uncomfortable. She walked around and stopped in a carriage, turned around in one step and three times, and after walking ten miles, she found that Cao Hua didn't catch up and said a few words, so she could no longer hold back and cried heartbrokenly.

When the Hei Yuwei, who was secretly following the protection, saw that, he naturally sent someone back to inform Cao Hua.

Cao Hua was quite helpless and had to drive his horse to comfort him again.

Unexpectedly, when Concubine Zhu Qu saw that he really followed, she quickly wiped her tears and looked indifferent. She said:

"I've said that I've stopped contacting me, why did you catch up and pester me again? Don't follow me..."

Cao Hua was speechless.

After bidding farewell to Concubine Zhu Qu, the team set off again.

The three thousand black armors passed by, just like the King of Hell going out for a walk. It was not easy to encounter anything, and there was no trouble along the way. On the way, Jing Feng left the team and went to Xuchang, and took back the Cai brother and sister who were fostered at a friend's house. With the boat girl's son and the three children were noisy, it brought a lot of fun to the boring itinerary.

The other side.

In the city of Bianjing, the arrival of early spring has made the prosperous Yanglou Street bloom in a hundred flowers. Many young ladies and wives who have been cats for a winter have emerged to choose new clothes and jewelry and travel around to breathe. After leaving Kyoto, "Kyoto Tai Sui" makes people feel that the air in the capital has become a little fresher, and the literati are braver and have a lot of fun and singing day and night. They are no longer afraid that Cao Tai Sui will suddenly run to the door and lift the table.

After several months of precipitation, the name "Su Shi" seemed to have disappeared into the minds of literati. Everyone never mentioned it at the poetry meeting, as if that person had never existed. The grass tips of Wanbaolou were also disappeared with "Su Shi". In the past, literati was proud of wearing grass tips on his head, but now he will definitely not spend money in vain.

Wanbaolou is becoming increasingly deserted. Liu Laosi no longer goes to the shop, but focuses on operating the industries in the outer city and takes the low-end route. Although the profit is small, the winning is large.

Chen Jingliu is managing the shop business. Chen Jingliu is already smart. He has learned what he should have learned in a year, but he will not do any losses. However, it is obviously impossible to make her earn private money for Cao Hua. A wealthy family is nothing more than building bridges and roads to support literary and poetry meetings. Chen Jingliu donated some in the name of Cao Hua, which means changing Cao Hua's nickname to "Kyoto God of Wealth".

Zhao Tianluo has been in charge of the royal family industry since childhood. He did not treat money like dirt like Chen Jingliu. However, after learning, he did not stop it. He also paid some money every time, hoping to improve the view of Cao Hua by the literati in the capital. As a result, after some operation, he insisted on making Cao Hua's reputation better. Instead, the saying that "Cao Taisui chewed peonies and married two living Bodhisattvas" was spread, which made Zhao Tianluo very angry. He had originally visited the poetry meeting with Chen Jingliu, but in the end he was too lazy to go.

Although they are married as women, they are not old after all, and Cao Hua is not here, so they are naturally bored while sitting in the mansion to drink tea all day long. Taking advantage of the sunny weather in March, Chen Jingliu accompanied Zhao Tianluo to Yanglou Street for a walk...

------

At noon, the rain was waving and jumping into the hall of Shibaotang, preparing to go out of the city for a walk.

The Minglou opposite was a lot less frequent because of Li Shishi's departure, which made the Shibaotang business even more deserted. The guys were sleepy with the ginseng of the corridor, and every customer came in for a long time.

The sound of the zither came out, and Chen Yu looked over with the sound. Su Xiangning was sitting next to the piano platform and playing the song absent-mindedly.

The warm sun comes from the window and has been converted into a conference room for piano rooms. There are various musical instruments. For the sake of beauty, there are special bases and neatly arranged.

There were several paintings on the table beside the window. In addition to the one I painted in the courtyard, there were several paintings that I later drew in my spare time. Without exception, they were portraits of a man. The last one was the back of a young man in white when he drove his horse out of Beijing, and he was only halfway through.

Chen Yu was lying on the curtain when he lifted the curtain, walked to the painting table and touched his chin, looking at him curiously:

"Sister Su, who is this painting? So handsome."

Qin Yin stopped, Su Xiangning came to her senses, turned her head to look at her painting table, and hurriedly stood up and packed up the paintings on the table: "No one, I just drew it."

Chen Yu naturally didn't believe this. After thinking about it, he persuaded with some resentment:

"That person surnamed Cao is really. He hasn't come back for so long, so he has no conscience."

Su Xiangning's face turned slightly red, and she was a little unhappy: "Yu'er, why do you speak like this... Cao Hua is doing serious business in Xuzhou... Alas, those scholars are really not a thing. It would be fine if Cao Hua bullies and scolds him. Cao Hua went out to beat the bandits and bandits, saying, "As the emperor's guard, he left his post without permission, treating local officials like pigs and dogs, and disturbing people's livelihood with great fanfare along the way." It's really unreasonable."

Chen Yu naturally heard these statements, but Xuzhou is far away from all over the world, and she didn't know what it looked like there, and said in disappointment:

"You don't know Cao Taisui's official power. The little prince dared not say anything when he was unloaded. What does it mean to treat local officials like pigs and dogs? Cao Taisui didn't regard Beijing officials as human beings. As soon as he went out of the capital, people in Yanglou Street could be scared away. When he went outside, he would definitely scare the common people to go out..."

"Yu'er!"

Su Xiangning was really angry: "Those scholars said it out loud and slander Cao Hua. Why did you say that? You don't know him. Although you are arrogant, you still reason. How could you go out to bully the people?"

"I know, I know."

Chen Yu hugged Su Xiangning's arm, rubbing her head against her shoulder, acting coquettishly: "Look at you staring outside like a husband stone every day, I feel sorry for you to vent your anger. If you don't want to listen, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

"What do you think of your husband? Don't talk nonsense?"

Su Xiangning looked embarrassed and pulled out her arm and turned around: "Cao Hua and I are innocent. If this is said, outsiders will have to slander him "indifferent and unkind". Do you think there are not enough troubles?"

Chen Yu knew it very well, but on the surface he had to accommodate his sisters, so he had to nod his head lazily:

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything. Let's go out of the city and go for a walk. If you hold it in, you will get sick. When the other person surnamed Cao came back and saw that you were sick and unpretentious, maybe he really ignored you."

Su Xiangning was angry and annoyed, but she had a calm temperament and couldn't do anything to Chen Yu. Seeing that the weather was good outside, she prepared to clean up and go out to the city to go shopping with Chen Yu.
