It was almost mid-spring, but the night wind was still cold. But in the courtyard of Xiang'an Manor, there were bright lights and warmth.

After seeing off Zhang Hui, Zhao Hongpei, Zhao Tong and his party, Shen Rui began to arrange lanterns.

Yang Tian was dragging sick body to entertain guests one after another during the day. Although she was in a good mood, her body couldn't hold on. After taking the medicine, she fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already time to hold the lights.

She knew before going to bed that Shen Rui brought the colorful lanterns back, but when she saw the colorful yard, she was still surprised.

"Do you want to come out and take a look?" Shen Rui had already walked to the window and greeted the house.

Yang Tian's face was full of excitement and focused his attention, but turned around to see his mother Lin's mother.

Mother Lin said helplessly: "You have to wear thicker clothes! You will be back after just a short while."

Yang Tian couldn't help laughing anymore and responded happily. Ophiopogon japonicus immediately came over to help Yang Tian put on big clothes. Lin's mother found the thickest cloak, wrapped Yang Tian tightly, and shouted outside.

Man prepares a soft chair for slide rod.

Shen Rui was waiting at the door early in the morning. When he saw her coming out, he smiled and said, "Seeing that you are sleeping soundly, I have never asked you to do it myself. You can make do with it first, wait until tomorrow, and there are still orders.

The lights are delivered, let’s put them together again.”

Yang Tian looked at the fireworks all over the yard, turned his head and smiled, "Is this a good deal? You have to move all the lantern shops here before you can stop!"

He was angry, but he still looked around happily, his bending eyebrows and raised corners of his mouth never fell.

Shen Rui followed the soft chair to the yard, pointed to the colorful lights everywhere and explained to Yang Tian, ​​and said which shop was the craftsmanship, what are the requirements for drawing traditional tower lights, and where can I set up a new type of revolving light.

There is also a string of small lanterns with riddles written on them, which are tied into the shape of flowers such as orchids, chrysanthemums and plums in the four seasons. They are very exquisite. Yang Tian likes them very much, and he guessed two with interest. He also thought the riddle was simple and not suitable.

This lantern laughed and said that when he went back, he would also be a riddle, so that Shen Rui could guess.

"There are also lamps for the twelve zodiac signs," Shen Rui smiled, "I missed three zodiac signs, so I ordered them and sent them together. The lamp was also vivid and you will like it. Then you will be able to do it.

Six riddles, I have six riddles, let’s see who wins more.”

Yang Tian applauded and smiled like a flower. He raised his head under the tree and looked up at the lanterns. The orange-red light shone down, reflecting her face becoming more and more gentle, and her eyes were lit like stars.

Holding her little hand and looking at her smile, Shen Rui felt peace in his heart, but he felt that the years were quiet and peaceful.

After standing outside for a quarter of an hour, Yang Tian coughed several times, and Shen Rui felt a little reckless. It was cold at night. But seeing that Yang Tian was in high spirits, he couldn't help but feel more pity for her. I thought she had been free and easy in the past.

The family was also cautious in their words and actions, and they could not be so comfortable and happy, so they let her go and wrapped her cloak tighter.

However, Lin's mother was always worried, and finally, after Yang Tian coughed for a while, she couldn't help but persuade her.

Although Yang Tian had not had enough fun, he knew that he could no longer suffer from the cold, so he responded.

Shen Rui hurriedly sent her back to the house, waiting outside to update her clothes for her, and then went in and talked to her about today's visitors.

Since someone poured the dirty water of the epidemic on the Yang family, and the Yang family wanted to avoid this disaster, the news of sending their daughter out of the city to recuperate should be spread to everyone.

The day after Yang Tian was sent, news was already leaked.

In addition to the Xu family and Zhao Tong, the two groups of people who came to visit today were also a family in Zhanshifu and a family in Hanlin.

Of course, there are also families who are suspicious of having excessive lung disease, so they only sent people to send tonic medicines, and did not allow the girls at home to visit.

Yang Tian said a few simple words to others before blushing and said to Xu: "Madam, sister and relatives are very kind," and said, "The Lu sister-in-law is really a wonderful person." Then he learned what Zhang Qingbai said. Let Shen Rui hear it.

Shen Rui smiled and said, "Last time, I told you that I wanted to borrow two martial maids from Wu Jing's mansion to accompany you to practice boxing, or ask the Sixth Girl to teach you. I don't think that Lu Ershiqi's sister-in-law is a trainer, Then let her stay for a while later.”

Yang Tian smiled and said, "No, sister six has no time to teach me. When I came today, I told me that the cloth shop would have to open one or two stores first. Just as I was about to change the season and cut new clothes, I said again. I came to discuss with me the second brother, and I was confused by her business philosophy. Second brother, I was afraid I couldn't manage this business well."

"The Zhao family is in charge of management. You care what the starter is doing. If you look forward to our account, Zhang Hui's eyes will be lit up when he mentions business. These two people are really made of heaven and earth. Yes." Shen Rui laughed, went to see Yang Tian again, and said silently, "Like you and me."

Yang Tian's pretty face turned red and she spat in a low voice.

Seeing that she was shy, Shen Rui stopped teasing her, and then changed the topic and said with a smile: "Zhang Hui also told me that the sixth girl was going to invite you to go to Wujing Bo Mansion to run a horse. But okay, they are busy with business. , don’t go on a horse and go on a spring trip, for fear that you will have to go on a autumn trip until the Double Ninth Festival.”

Yang Tian thought of the joy of riding a horse that Zhao Tong said, and smiled and said, "I can't ride a horse, you have agreed to teach me."

Shen Rui said: "It's not difficult at all. Our village is big, so we can build a horse farm in the back. When we get a good start, we will go to Zhanghuijiazhuang to win the lottery."

Although Yang Tian responded well, he also said, "I'm afraid I can't learn it. If I don't ride well, I will drag you down and make you lose the lottery."

Shen Rui raised his face and patted his chest seriously and said, "The famous master is here," and pointed at Yang Tian again, "The great disciple is here." He smiled and said, "Will we lose if we combine our swords? His British Duke's Mansion But there are many good things, Tian'er should not be ruthless and move them all back to our house. Don't worry, our Zhuangzi is big and can let go!"

Yang Tian smiled so hard that the branches were trembling, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

After a while, Ophiopogon japonicus brought medicine again and served Yang Tian to take it.

Shen Rui remembered Zhang Qingbai's father, the real person Tianliangzi, who came again, and couldn't help but tell Yang Tian the interesting story of him putting medicine when he saw someone.

When Yang Tian heard that there were also pills for herself, he couldn't help but be curious and said that Lu Ershiqi's sister-in-law did not mention this matter today.

Shen Rui smiled and said, "She doesn't believe it herself!"

Yang Tian smiled and asked curiously: "I have never seen Taoist elixirs. What does it look like? Is it made of cinnabar realgar as written in the book?"

Shen Rui laughed and said, "Cinalia realgar? Add a little arsenic, the poisonous rat pill is just right!"

Seeing Yang Tian glaring at him, he said seriously: "I don't want to make an appointment. It's not necessarily a golden stone elixir. Many people will get poisoned after taking the golden stone elixir. If someone eats it, I'm afraid he will never dare to give it to him again. I’m still giving it to me. Since I’m still giving it to me, I think it’s hawthorn pills, which are sour and sweet, and they won’t be bad even if they don’t eat them well.”

Yang Tian was still listening attentively, but he didn't expect him to make jokes again as he spoke. He couldn't help but feel angry and funny. When he thought of the poisonous rat pill and the hawthorn pill, he couldn't help laughing again.

When he mentioned the Lu family, Shen Rui briefly told Yang Tian about the meaning of the Lu family visit, how to discuss the Shen family, Wang Shouren's reaction, and Zhang Hui, Zhao Hongpei and him.

He had been to Yang Tian and would tell her everything. Now that he said this is to fulfill his promise, he also does not want Yang Tian to have a free time to think randomly, which will aggravate his condition.

"But, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you tomorrow, so I have to go to the teacher." Shen Rui said a little apologetically.

Wang Shouren and Zhang Yongzeng fought side by side, and their relationship was much closer. He wanted to contact Zhang Yong and talk about the eunuchs in Liaodong. Naturally, he had to find a way from the teacher.

And he also had to go home and talk to his mother, two uncles, and two brothers, Shen Li and Chen Jin, about the new developments in the shipping and trade affairs.

Yang Tian hurriedly said, "Second brother, please go..." Because he was anxious, he couldn't help coughing.

Shen Rui hurriedly reached out to help her caress her back, and then held her hand tightly.

She coughed so hard that she stopped crying, and then turned to hold him and whispered: "If the second brother delays the business for me, how can I live safely? I can stay here for a few days and two days It’s already…no regrets to be with me.”

The originally sweet voice became hoarse due to long-term coughing. Such ominous words were even more sad and sad.

Shen Rui felt heartbroken. He knew that although Yang Tian had moved to the village and was in a state of mind, his condition did not improve.

He knew that he was anxious and not a Feng Shui problem, so he would be cured immediately after changing places. The disease needs to be treated slowly, but he was extremely distressed when he watched his lover feel uncomfortable.

However, he did not speak softly and comfort him, but instead made a relaxed attitude, clicked Yang Tian's nose and said with a smile: "You are so sad that you are sad about spring and autumn, I feel more and more guilty. If you like Zhuangzi, let's live for a while. There are lotus flowers in the pool in the summer.”

He also said: "My mother is old. I heard that Tangquan Zhuangzi is very good to the elderly. There are also several Tangquans around the capital. When I visit, we will also set up a place. If you are happy to be in the farm, we will serve as my mother. Come and live here. I also feel comfortable in the village.”

Yang Tian looked at him for a while before smiling sweetly, and responded softly with a "good" voice.

The two chatted for a while, and Shen Rui asked Yang Tian to rest.

Because she was tired but couldn't sleep, he took the pen and ink scroll to the study, and reviewed each other on the table outside the bed. Until the second day, when he got up to move his muscles and bones, he heard Yang Tian breathing evenly and knew that she was sleeping. After getting familiar, he instructed the maid to go back to the study by himself.

The next morning, Shen Rui got up and practiced boxing in the yard before going upstairs to have breakfast with Yang Tian.

Although Yang Tian woke up three times, whenever he woke up, he would open the window to look at the colorful lights. Thinking of Shen Rui's feelings, he no longer felt that it was difficult to bear the long night.

When Yang Tian woke up in the morning, he looked at the window for a while and Shen Rui fisted. When Shen Rui came in, he personally twisted a hot towel and handed it to him.

Shen Rui didn't say anything you should rest and don't move. He took it naturally, wiping his face and asked Yang Tian how good she slept last night and what she wanted to eat this morning.

Just like those couples who have been together for many years.

Yang Tian felt like honey was soaked in her heart, and she just thought, if she had been like this, how would she be beautiful!

After breakfast, Shen Rui reminded the maid and maid not to lie down all the time, so that Yang Tian would get up and take a cup of tea for a while, but he should also pay attention to dizziness, palpitations, poor breathing and other problems.

He drove his horse back to the city and headed towards Wang Shouren's mansion.

*

Wang Shouren sighed at the chaos in Liaodong, but said: "It is probably the case for eunuchs in various places to guard the city. Sending them to guard is like sending them to make money. There are so few people who know how to use troops and do practical things like Zhang Yong and Eunuch Zhang.

, It is also my blessing to meet Eunuch Zhang in this bandit suppression."

Shen Rui also sighed. Most of the royal families in the Ming Dynasty did not believe in generals and eunuchs. They set up a guardian eunuch, a military eunuch. Local generals are heroes. If they want to do anything, they have to hold these eunuchs. If they meet Zhang

It would be better if Yong is like this. If he meets Zhu Xiu like this, he will be in trouble.

Although Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong had no contacts after Taihu suppressed bandits and returned to Beijing, they had never broken up.

The eunuchs in the palace had private houses outside the palace, even Liu Zhong was no exception, let alone Zhang Yong.

"His house is in Chengqingfang, not far from your house." Wang Shouren said, "I am not easy to come forward for this matter."

Shen Rui naturally understood that Lianlian said yes, and asked Changshou to follow Chang'an beside Wang Shouren to go to the mansion there and send him a message to Shen's mansion.

Because the Liaodong trade is also tied to the construction of sea ships, it is not advisable to be dragged for a long time. In the palace, he also asked Zhang Hui to try to say hello to Zhang Yong and asked him to see him in the next two days.

In this Japanese case, Shen Rui met Zhang Yong in Songjiang. However, at that time, although Zhang Yong was an imperial envoy, his grade was not high. Shen Ruiyin was a disciple of Wang Shouren and held the junior rituals, so there were not many conversations between the two sides.

, it's very harmonious.

Now, Zhang Yong is the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor.

The Imperial Horse Supervisor, the Ministry of War and the Governor, holds the military positions together, and is actually the "Shufu" of the inner court, and also manages the grassland Huangzhuang Huangjian, and the household finance department, etc. It is equivalent to the inner court steward, and can almost have "

The Silijian, known as the "internal minister", competed with each other.

Shen Rui was not sure what it would be like when a person held power.
