After more than a month, Shizheng has seriously considered those people who are still selling illicit salt, and discussed this matter with the Minister of Criminal Justice. Many people sell illicit salt in small quantities, mostly because of the compulsion of life. As a last resort, the criminal law was relaxed, and it was released after a few beatings. Only those involved in a large amount of illicit salt were sentenced to capital punishment to set an example.
The reason why he talked to Yu Yue like that was because he wanted her to stay in his territory honestly. Apart from this reason, he couldn't think of any other way to keep her by his side. As for Ji Bai, in the past, there was a river in Yuexi Village, and the women in the village always liked to wash their clothes by the river. There was a pavilion on the mountain opposite the river, and Ji Bai often stayed in that pavilion. He always thought that he was just an ordinary man who came to see and admire the girl, and he didn't care. It wasn't until Lin Bingyue was about to marry the eldest son of the Ji family that he accidentally learned that the man was the second son of the Ji family. It was said that the second son had a sweetheart in Yuexi Village, and now that person is undoubtedly Yu Yue.
I still remember that at that time, he and Yu Yue were already married, and he could often see Ji Bai taking a nap in the pavilion. He was afraid that he was trying to destroy their minds. At that time, he always felt that Yu Yue was a trouble, and he did not. He cares too much, he is careless.
When he returned to the mansion again, it was almost dusk to prepare for dinner. The housekeeper came to ask what to do. Shizheng couldn't remember what Yu Yue likes to eat after thinking for a long time, so he asked the cook to make a few meat dishes that he was good at, thinking about serving it. Make up for the rest of the month.
When I went back to the room to change home clothes, I found that Yu Yue was still sleeping, so she waved her hand back to the servant girl she was serving, and changed it by herself. As a result, even if she had already changed her clothes, she didn't see Yu Yue getting up. The current affairs were a little scared, so she immediately went to visit and confirmed that she was just sleeping. When he got it, he took his hand back.
Still wearing that worn-out clothes, is he still the poor person who needs her to sell her house to take the exam in Beijing? Shi Zheng frowned. He didn't want to see her suffer anymore. During the days when she was in a coma, Shi Qiu told him all the hardships they had experienced over the years. His heart was as uncomfortable as being pressed by a boulder. Don't let them suffer and be poor, and don't leave them again.
Since Yu Yue woke up, it was the first time that he looked at her face so carefully. It was thin and black, and it was extremely ugly. Whenever he saw her, it was like a silent accusation against him, accusing him of what he had done all these years. He didn't do it, his wife, brother and sister were wronged in a place he couldn't see. He was so incompetent! There is still a light red mark on the side of her face on the right side. It was hit by a whip in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. It has not recovered yet, and her face that was not very beautiful is even uglier.
Maybe she slept enough, maybe she felt someone beside her, Yu Yue slowly opened her eyes, but her brain was still asleep and couldn't wake up with her body. She stared sleepily at this familiar and unfamiliar The man, blinked, "Sizheng, you're back, isn't it hard to study, I'll cook for you."
Saying that, he closed his eyes and touched the shoes under the bed to put them on. Shizheng hugged Yu Yue tightly, "I'm not hungry."
Yu Yue looked at Shi Zheng in a daze, "How can you not be hungry, mother said that reading is a waste of your brain and you need to make up for it. You see, you are hungry now and you have to help me to walk."
"I'm not hungry, I just miss you a little." Shi Zheng's embrace was getting tighter and tighter, and he wanted to rub Yu Yue into his body.
At this time, Yu Yue's mind began to return to her senses, looking at the current affairs holding her tightly, her heart was like a river surging, but no matter how hard the years are, the person who the current affairs likes is not her after all, and everything in front of her is only temporary. Confused yet.
"Master Prime Minister, can I go?" Yu Yue asked cautiously, for fear of angering the current affairs again.
Shizheng also recovered from the past, and changed back to his cold look. He let go of Yu Yue and got up and took out the clothes that had been prepared in the closet. "Put this on, let's go eat."
It was a light purple dress, very beautiful, Yu Yue subconsciously wanted to take it, but she took it back.
"Why, didn't you like this color before?" Shizheng couldn't let go of Yu Yue's little gesture of withdrawing her hand.
After hesitating for a while, Yu Yue said in a low voice, "I don't like this color, I just said I liked it because you liked it." And this color is Lin Bingyue's favorite color.
Shi Zheng was stunned for a moment, now she is no longer willing to please him, not even pretending.
Seeing Shizheng's face gradually sinking, Yu Yue realized that what she said just now might have made Shizheng angry, so she hurriedly took the dress, "If you like it, I'll wear it for you."
Shizheng took the dress back and threw it aside, frightened Yu Yue subconsciously trembled.
I only heard Shi Zheng coldly say, "If you don't like it, don't wear it, and you can wear what you like in the future."
Yu Yue's eyes widened.
When eating, Yu Yue was still wearing her shabby sackcloth and linen, but this time she was no longer obsessed with the current affairs and asked her to change it.
Shi Zheng was in a bad mood, and the whole person exuded an atmosphere of keeping strangers away. Shi Qiu and Qing Huan also felt it. The two who originally wanted to leave were glared by Shi Zheng and sat down again, which is really hard to swallow.
Yu Yue had a bad stomach. She stopped using chopsticks before taking a few bites of the whole table of fish. Seeing that Shi Qiu and Qing Huan didn't stop chopsticks even though their faces were embarrassed, she couldn't say to leave.
"Is the food unpalatable?" Shi Zheng's face was cold and frosty even when he looked at Yu Yue.
Realizing that Shizheng might be a little angry, Yu Yue, who had put down her chopsticks, picked it up again, and put a large piece of greasy braised pork in her mouth, "It's delicious, this is the most delicious thing I've ever eaten. Delicious food."
Qing Huan and Shi Qiu looked at Yu Yue worriedly, Shi Qiu was straight and wanted to say something, but Qing Huan on the side pulled his sleeves, and followed Qing Huan's eyes, Yu Yue on the opposite side was facing him Shaking his head slightly, Shi Qiu hesitated for a while and finally swallowed the words he wanted to say.
When he is blind? Shizheng threw his chopsticks and left the table angrily.
There is a small lake in the yard, and there is a small pavilion in the lake. Whenever he is bored, Shizheng will always sit somewhere, but even sitting here today, it is difficult for him to meditate. He wonders what it is. Why, he is already willing to live a good life with Yu Yue, why is it that she or Shi Qiuqinghuan are always so far away from him, they shouldn't, in the past, whether they wanted to or not, they would always take the initiative to entangle themselves and surround them. Spinning around by his side makes him annoyed! Now he is willing to spend family time with them, but they are far away from him. Why is this
Before he could understand the question, the housekeeper came to report that Yu Yue was going to leave the house and asked him if he still wanted to stop him.
This woman's temper is not over yet! Shi Zheng threw an exquisite teacup, perhaps because he used too much strength, the teacup fell into the lake with a 'puff', and ripples were swayed for a long time.
The guard at the gate of the mansion was still arguing with Yu Yue, saying nothing would let her leave.
When the current affairs came, Yu Yue was throwing her baggage on the ground, sitting on it and sulking.
It's been a long time since I saw her get so angry. All I can remember is that she went to the town to sell vegetables six years ago. After being bullied by the old woman who sold vegetables in the town, she sat alone on the threshold and sulked. At that time, he only felt that she was overestimated, but now he has a sense of powerlessness, it seems that he can't change her at any time, and can't do anything except look at her behind him.
Shizheng stepped forward and grabbed Yu Yue's arm, "Go back!"
The tone was both domineering and cold, Yu Yue shrank subconsciously, but then looked at the street with people coming and going outside the gate, and she was just one step away from leaving, so unwilling!
"I want to go home." She whispered. Facing the high political affairs, Yu Yue did not dare to rebel against such a person. She was afraid that she would be sent back to the dark dungeon again, but she was unwilling to do it again. Back in this bustling cage.
No matter how quiet the voice was, Shi Zheng still heard it. He looked down at Yu Yue's head that couldn't be lowered any further, "This is your home, you can only be here."
"It's not here." Yu Yue still said in a low voice, almost inaudible.
Is she putting conditions on herself? Do you want him to admit in public that she is the mistress of this Xiangfu? She also thought about this, Shizheng sneered, "When I deal with the princess's affairs, I will admit your status in the prime minister's residence."
After saying that, she took her arm and walked into the yard. Yu Yue pulled her arm back, "I don't want to live here." Continue to stay by his side.
This completely annoyed the current affairs, and looked at her with a cold face, "Don't make an inch!" He pulled Yu Yue's arm and used some strength.
Yu Yue, who felt some pain, cocked the corners of her mouth, as humble as her, and didn't even dare to pull her arm out of Shi Zheng's hands. Dare to hum.
He hates to look at her humble appearance. The big but lively Yu Yue is gone. He can only see her when she is burning and drowsy, or when she is drowsy in sleep. God, she immediately became what she is now, which is disgustingly tight.
Shi Zheng sighed slightly in his heart, let go of Yu Yue's arm and asked the housekeeper to call all the servants to the front yard, dragged Yu Yue to the front of everyone, and said, "She is the wife I am marrying, and from now on she will be the prime minister. Mistress of the House."
Most of the servants look down on Yu Yue, even if her treatment in the current affairs is different from others, they can't feel that such an ugly girl can fly up the branches and become a phoenix, but they are afraid of the current affairs, they are afraid of such people It can make them lose their life support at any time.
After the servants left, Shizheng frowned and looked at Yu Yue who was still bowing his head, "I'm satisfied now."
The tone should be more perfunctory, as if he was dealing with something he didn't want to do but had to do, and was disgusting and annoying.
After a long while, I couldn't hear Yu Yue's answer, and Shi Zheng's brows furrowed even deeper. Yu Yue in front of her still shrank her head like a quail without saying a word, and said "Speak!" from her heart.
"I...I..." The voice was choked up, intermittently.
Shi Zheng raised Yu Yue's chin with one hand, and the clear tears on Yu Yue's face instantly drowned Shi Zheng's thoughts.
"Is it so unwilling to stay here? Do I just let you stay away from me now? What about the Yuyue in the past! The Yuyue who always followed me!" The hand holding Yu Yue's chin was not consciously forceful.
After a long time, Yu Yue whispered, "Go back... can't go back, I... we... we can't go back."
This time, it was not a vase or a teacup, but an expensive decorative tree in the yard.
