son-in-law

Chapter 459
Changqiu Palace, Feixiang Palace.

The Empress Dowager lay on her side on the couch, looking at the map of Luoyang city hanging on the wall.The map was drawn by Jin Yiwei, and it was so detailed that one could even see the kennel in the Prince's Mansion of Anxi County.This was Su Yu's masterpiece again, which fascinated the Queen Mother.

Suddenly, the eunuch reported to the door that Su Yiren had invited to see the Queen Mother, and it was said that he had brought gifts.The Queen Mother asked, what gift?The little eunuch couldn't answer it, he just said it was a few boxes of small wooden blocks.

All right, what are you doing sending wood blocks?
The queen mother couldn't help being puzzled, so she got up and rushed to the apse.

Seeing Su Yu at the first hour of You hour every day has become the daily routine of the Empress Dowager.Not seeing each other every day, the queen mother felt that something was missing in her life.If Su Yu doesn't come, the Queen Mother will think of ways to beat Su Yu.In order not to cause trouble for himself, Su Yu took the initiative to rush to the imperial city after get off work at You hour every day.The time on the road is basically a quarter of an hour.

The queen mother knew when Su Yu would come, but she would not wait in advance.Be sure to let Su Yu report to the door, and then she will walk over in a leisurely manner.The graceful and luxurious queen mother walks lightly, feeling that a gust of wind can blow her away.

At this moment, Su Yu was arranging something in the apse, and seemed quite busy.

A specially made large square table with a side length of ten feet.There was a sketch of Luoyang City drawn on the square table, and Su Yu and Tong Yu were placing wooden blocks of various shapes on the sketch to build a city like building blocks.The wood is exquisitely carved, and the landmark buildings of each square are carved to the corners.Taking Pingkang Square as an example, two palm-sized buildings are surrounded by walls, and there are four wooden carved buildings inside, representing Wanhua Building, Meixian Temple, Caiyun Pavilion and Kaiyuan Pavilion respectively.But now Kaiyun Pavilion may close down, just because Zhao Zhun is down, and now there are not many people to take care of the number one oiran, Dou Caixian.

Perhaps because of looking at the map often, the Queen Mother could tell what Su Yu was doing at a glance.As for the three-dimensional map of Luoyang City made by Su Yu, the more she looked at it, the more interesting she found it, and she even wanted to help Su Yu build it together.But due to her status, she just sat behind the curtain.

"You guys go over and help." The queen mother waved her hand, making the eunuchs and maids behind her also move.

It took Su Yu half an hour to build this "building block Luoyang city".When the "city" was halfway through, Cao Yuzan already liked it very much.Looking at the desktop, you can find the feeling of bird's-eye view of the whole city, so that you can suddenly find a sense of security.It was as if the entire city was in his hands.

Su Yu knows very well that women are not sensitive to direction by nature.For example, when you arrive in a new city and ask a woman for directions, you probably won’t be able to find the north.If it is cloudy, they completely lose their sense of direction, thinking that everything is north.When talking about the geography of Luoyang with Cao Yuzan, I feel that the concept of 99 squares in Luoyang City is not very clear in her mind.Often misplaced.So Su Yu first sent her a map, and then this three-dimensional "city".

Cao Yuzan looked around and saw that the back hall was full of her confidantes, so she ordered the door to be closed, and she opened the curtain and walked out.The city is a must to see up close.

When she came out from behind the curtain, Su Yu's heart beat faster, feeling that the empress was playing with fire.

Cao Yuzan didn't hide her inner joy, and pointed out: "It's the first time I see Yudi doing things for me with so much heart, I can't think of such a good way."

Su Yu smiled noncommittally and said nothing.

After the city was set up, Su Yu took out many wooden figurines from the box. Since the word "wooden figurines" is unlucky, Su Yu called them dolls.There are generals, soldiers, eunuchs, and ministers, as well as some lacquered puppets that don't represent anything.Su Yu put one of the general puppet on the avenue, then took the polo club and handed it to Cao Yuzan.

Cao Yuzhan understood, pushed the puppet back and forth with a cue, and said with a smile: "It will be much more convenient to command the battle in the future. For example, the rebels are in the east of the city, and the Ai family's soldiers are here. Just listen to the pass. Reporting the news is like seeing it in person.”

Then Cao Yuzan rummaged through the many wooden figurines, found a white lacquered wooden figurine, shook it and said, "This is the commander of the Beijing Command."

When the empress dowager said this, there was a trace of shyness that could not be concealed on her face.

There is a slang saying: if you have nothing to do, you are either rape or steal.

These words sound a bit absolute at first glance, but everyone knows the general meaning in their hearts, and there is always something to be courteous about.For example, when Su Yu gave a gift today, he just wanted to have a talk with the Queen Mother, and could he not waste the time too much.In this way, "[-] to [-]" every day will make people very tired.Under the Queen Mother's request, Su Yu worked "nine to five" almost all year round.

But as soon as Su Yu made a start, the smile on the Empress Dowager's face disappeared, and then she walked back to the curtain, sat down and said, "You don't do physical work at work, how can you feel tired? Jingxingfang is also a bustling place, let you Don’t you feel boring? Besides, don’t think I don’t know, there must be a share of your money in Li’s warehouse. I don’t even bother to tell Linger. You are in Jingtong in the morning, and you go to Jinyiwei in the afternoon. You just sit, and there are people waiting for you everywhere. I don't think you're tired. I think it's easier than running around."

Hearing the woman's complaint, Su Yu remained silent.

After a long while, Cao Yuzan sighed: "I think you feel trapped and uncomfortable. So how about it, you stay in Jingxingfang in the morning and do some activities in the afternoon. However, you must come to see me at such a time every day Once. If you don’t come, you won’t be able to do any more activities in the future. I’ll also tell Linger about all your small business, and let her confiscate it.”

Su Yu cursed in his heart, this Tang Ling'er got too close to the Queen Mother, and the two chatted a lot.Even the Empress Dowager knew about Tang Linger's confiscation of Su Yu's private property, which made people speechless.But Su Yu seldom heard Tang Linger talk about the Queen Mother's little secret.I don't know if Tang Linger suffered a disadvantage in the "game" with the queen mother, or Tang Linger deliberately didn't tell Su Yu.

……

……

Every day, Su Yu would go to Beijing to do his job, and then go to the military academy to observe the spy Miaozi.

Principal Su often sat in the building, staring at the teaching field.

The recruits can always receive orders from the building suddenly, asking a certain team to do some mindless things.For example, Principal Su suddenly ordered the other teams to disband, leaving the first team to stay and run around the playground with their luggage rolled up.I don't know when I ran, but I just kept running like this, exhausting these recruits to death.

Then Principal Su asked the first team to dig in the backyard. He didn't say when they were digging, and let them dig.At this time, Principal Su's gaze was on the backyard again.

Finally, a soldier couldn't bear it anymore and asked the captain Han Jian, what are we doing?
Han Jian scolded: "If you tell me to do it, do it, don't talk too much!"

At first the soldiers could bear it, but they were always being tossed, and the soldiers couldn't bear it anymore.A few people came out and confronted the captains.Since these five captains are not officers officially appointed by the Ministry of War, they are "squad leaders" in the eyes of "classmates".Even if they beat them up, it's not considered beating the superior, and the military academy won't go into it.

Su Yu tossed from team to team, but nothing too intense happened yet.The reason is that the time is too short.Su Yu was not in a hurry, after lunch he went to Jinyiwei to have a look, and found nothing wrong.At this time, Jin Yiwei has already produced a "substituting commander", and it really is Hua Tingfeng.

Zhang Mi was still recuperating in the backyard of Jinyiwei, Su Yu accompanied Hua Tingfeng to meet Zhang Mi.Su Yu said: The position of Jinyiwei Supervisor must belong to you, both of us have mentioned this matter to the Queen Mother.The queen mother has acquiesced.It's just that you have just been dismissed right now, so it's not easy to appoint immediately.And "one hundred days of injury", you can rest assured during this period of time.

Hearing this, Zhang Mi was very moved.

Which one is bigger, the supervising army or the commanding envoy?In fact, whoever gets closer to the Queen Mother is bigger.But Hua Tingfeng has an aloof personality, and rarely goes to see the Queen Mother.More importantly, Hua Tingfeng is not a eunuch, so Zhang Mi is not very worried that Hua Tingfeng will compete with him for favor.At the beginning, he had to kill Xiao Chong because that kid was stabbed, which made Zhang Mi feel that he had lost his advantage.

Zhang Mi also joked that Hong Dun is actually the most aggrieved superintendent now, because the queen mother took pictures of Su Yuge's appearance.The ten guards of the Jinwu are in charge, and the Queen Mother sees Su Yu the most times, more than the Queen Mother's two cousins ​​combined.Among the military officers who met, it can be said that Su Yu was second only to Cao Mian, the commander of the right guard of Habayashi.

Zhang Mi's words were also to remind Su Yu and Hua Tingfeng that any of these commanders could be offended, except Cao Mian.Although the young man is young, he is also a bad tempered man.Only his cousin is in his eyes, and everyone else can be his enemy.And Habayashi Guard is within the imperial city, and it is an absolute forbidden army.

……

……

Su Yu returned to Qinghuafang, and when he heard that the princess was not at home, he pretended to be passing by and came to Dongdacang.

To avoid suspicion, Su Yu didn't get out of the car, but asked Tong Yu to send two sets of clothes.One set of brocade clothes was given to Feng Yu, and the other set of plain clothes was given to Tang Xiaopang.Although it is plain, there is a lot of cotton stuffed inside, so it must be warm.He also stuffed some money in his pocket, and told Tang Xiaopang not to say anything, otherwise he wouldn't stuff money in the future.

Feng Yu lay behind the door, tilting her head to look at Su Yu.The little beauty was full of affection and eyes full of anticipation, but she dared not come out the door.Tang Xiaofei stood behind Feng Yu, looking at the new clothes happily.This heartless girl, it's no wonder she's not fat.

Everyone's aesthetics are different, what others think is beautiful, Su Yu may think it is very ordinary, or feel nothing at all.And what Su Yu thinks is the most beautiful may be a monster in the eyes of others.Anyway, Su Yu hasn't found a more beautiful face than Feng Yu so far.The girl is still very thin, still so charming.Every movement of her seems to be a picture of a beauty.

Leave Qinghuafang and go straight to Honghei Temple.

When you enter the gate, you will see a group of teenagers and girls, who are very serious about punching and kicking on the terrace paved with bluestone.They had already put on the new clothes Su Yu bought for them, which looked like the black monk robes of the Honghei Temple, but not exactly the same.Cut to a lean fit with a belted waist and short sleeves.Wearing it on the body of these sixteen or seventeen-year-old children, it looks refreshing.

Seeing Tu Biao striding over, Su Yu greeted him with a smile.

Tu Biao approached, solemnly said: "Something happened, the second young master of the Kong family was sent over by the National People's Congress."

Su Yu was startled, and quickly walked to the small warehouse in the backyard, saw a wooden box, opened it: human head, arm, torso that had been disemboweled, liver, heart...
