Looking at Chen Yaozuo, Xu Ping was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "I first arrived on Jingxi Road, and I haven't handed over an errand with Wang Yong, so it's too early to say this." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info wait a few days, I took over the Jingxi Road Cao Division, and I have met with the people of the Criminal Division and the Shuai Division, and then invite the ministers along the river to discuss, then how to decide? ”

Chen Yaozuo said: "It's naturally good, and the old man will go to Luoyang to discuss matters in person!" ”

According to the convention, Chen Yaozuo, a governor like Chen, does not participate in ordinary civil affairs, and it is Lu Ge who wants to discuss. However, he took the initiative to stand up himself, and he couldn't help but give him this face.

Xu Ping really doesn't want these big people to be involved in his own governance, no matter if he doesn't care about it, it's not easy to control the proportions in the meantime, and he will offend people if he is not careful. Chen Yaozuo from Zhengzhou, Li Di from Mengzhou, Zhang Qi from Xiangzhou, Xu Ping only hopes that these three people will enjoy life when they are in Jingxi Road, and all political affairs will be handed over to the general judge. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered Jingxi Road, Chen Yaozuo jumped out, which was really worrying.

In the end, Chen Yaozuo introduced to Xu Ping the wingmen of Zhengzhou, as well as the magistrates of the counties below, and there was no major event.

At this time, the bright moon was rising, and everywhere was shrouded in a piece of silver light, like a dream.

Xu Ping said goodbye to Chen Yaozuo, and was taken by Liu Dujian of Benzhou, left Zhengzhou City, and returned to the post house to rest. At this time, he has not officially taken office, and according to the rules, Xu Ping wants to live in the post house, of course, it depends on the individual whether he obeys the rules or not.

Back at the post house, Xiuxiu was reading a book under the lamp. Seeing Xu Ping coming in, he hurriedly put down the book, came up to help remove the official robe, and said: "The official smells of wine so much, are you a little drunk?" ”

Xu Ping took off his official robe, took a cup of tea on the table and drank it in one sip, and said to Xiuxiu: "What kind of nose are you, I have to talk about business with Chen Xianggong, and I haven't drunk a few glasses of wine at all, where are you drunk?" By the way, what book did you just read? ”

"Between the Flowers. Didn't you say you wanted me to read more? Girls' families, naturally read these, do they still read the scriptures and history? ”

Xu Ping said with a smile: "Don't underestimate the words between the flowers, although the words are weak, and most of the words are written about the love of the boudoir, but the words make Daxing start from the words between the flowers." You don't listen to the person who fills in the words, the words between the flowers are the most authentic, and they are the true colors of the words. ”

Xiuxiu shook her head: "What did I do when you said this?" I'm just looking at it interesting. ”

Xu Ping leaned on the table and thought for a while, and it was true. Xiuxiu looks at these just to pass the time to relieve boredom, is it still to study the history of literary development? As long as she can see it, she can watch whatever she wants.

Sitting down at the table, Xu Ping watched Xiuxiu tidy up his official robe, fetch water and clean his face, and was busy, and couldn't help but say: "Xiuxiu, your identity is different from before, are you looking for someone around you to do these chores?" ”

"What's the difference? Madame asked me to be by the side of the officials, isn't that what I do? If you can change someone, let me go home when I leave the capital, why follow the officials and travel long distances. ”

Xu Ping thought about it, it seems that what Xiuxiu said makes sense, but is she working hard all her life?

Xiuxiu fetched water, asked Xu Ping to clean his face, and went out to boil hot water to wash his feet.

Busy and busy, all things are done, and the night is already dark. Outside, a large round moon hung in the middle of the sky, smearing the night, and the whole world looked very different as if it were all dressed in silver makeup.

Xiuxiu cleaned up, wiped her hands, and said to Xu Ping: "Official, it's dark at night, it's better to rest early, I don't know what to do tomorrow." When you go out, if you get up late, you will be laughed at. ”

Xu Ping took Xiuxiu's hand and said, "There is nothing to do tomorrow, but Uncle Li came to see us from the former military supervisor in the afternoon." In the morning, I will take you to see the scenery of Zhengzhou, not far from the city there is a servant shooting, there is a Lingxian Wang Temple next to it, it is very effective, we go there to burn some incense and candles. I heard that when Huyan Tuanlian was a teenager, he worshiped King Lingxian in the temple as his uncle, and later Guixian, it can be seen that he is a spiritual god who can really have good fortune. When Emperor Zhenzong was the emperor, he personally went there to pay homage. ”

Xiuxiu smiled and took her hand, but was tightly held by Xu Ping, and said with a smile: "It's all about asking the gods for something, so I went to the temple to burn incense and candles, and it's usually fine, who is going to spend that spare money?" Let us go, and ask the king for a manifest thing. ”

"You and I are husband and wife now, and when I go, I naturally ask for a child, what else can I ask for?"

Xiuxiu lowered her head and didn't speak, just pulled her hand, her face full of shyness. Seeing that Xu Ping didn't let go, he said angrily: "That servant shooting is just near the left of our Zhuangzi, what kind of rare place is it?" What a spirit king, I have long heard people say that the gods are all worshiped wrong, and what is the effect! Knowing that the worshippers have made all the gods wrong, the gods should not be angry! ”

Xu Ping said with a smile: "Which god is worshipped, as long as it works, you will be able to accept the incense!" ”

The area around the servant shot was originally the fief of Li Chong of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the land was named after him, and this temple was named after the place. However, during the period of the Five Dynasties, Li Chong was falsely rumored to be the Tang Dynasty's servant Li Jing, and the Later Jin Dynasty posthumously named Li Jing as the King of Lingxian, and this temple was renamed the Temple of King Lingxian. Zhenzong returned to Beijing in the west, and when he passed by, he went to worship in person, and the sacrificial text also praised Li Jing's merits, and since then he has been wrong.

Xiuxiu is a local aborigine, but she still remembers that the temple worships the wrong gods. However, Huyanzan was not a local, because his mother's surname was Li, so he recognized the god in the temple as his uncle and came to worship.

Xu Ping just found an excuse to go out for a walk with Xiuxiu, who cares what kind of fairy is in the temple.

Xiuxiu lacked strength, and when she saw Xu Ping holding her hand, she stopped and said, "It's time to rest in the middle of the night, what do the officials just do with my hand?" Even if you're not sleepy, I'm sleepy. ”

"When we're sleepy, we sleep. Now that they are husband and wife, they should naturally sleep together. Didn't you notice that there was only one room for us in the inn? And there is only one bed in this room. ”

Xiuxiu lowered her head and whispered, "When I first came to your house, I just sat outside the house all night. Without a bed to sleep in, what if I just sit all night? I wasn't afraid when I was a child, and I'm even more afraid now! ”

Xu Ping looked down at Xiuxiu and said to her: "We weren't husband and wife back then, so naturally we didn't sleep together, I don't know if you slept outside, won't I arrange a place for you to live the next day?" Now that we are husband and wife, we have to sleep together. Originally, we were going to be together after we left the city, but when you went back to your house in Baisha Town, I was left alone all night. ”

"What's lonely? Back then in Yongzhou, didn't the officials have been guarding it for a few years? ”

Xiuxiu's voice was so small that it was almost impossible to hear it like a mosquito humming.

Xu Ping put a force on his hand, hugged Xiuxiu in his arms, and whispered to her, "How old were you then?" Officials, I have to keep it, I don't have to keep it. Now it's different, with you, why should I sleep alone? ”

Xiuxiu's head was buried in Xu Ping's arms, her body was motionless, and she didn't speak.

Xu Ping hugged Xiuxiu, looked out the window, and whispered to her: "The moonlight tonight is just right, and the sky is clear, I should have gone out with you to enjoy the moon." - However, it is better to rest early, and it is the right thing to be a husband and wife or have children early. ”

Xiuxiu took a low sip: "If you are not serious, where can you have a child early!" ”

Xu Ping laughed, hugged Xiuxiu in his arms, and walked into the bedroom.

The officials in Zhengzhou, including the post house Yicheng, only knew that Xu Ping had brought a concubine to the post, but they didn't know that the two of them didn't have a round house, and there was no decoration in the room, and it was still normal. Xu Ping couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he saw it, and whispered to Xiuxiu in his arms: "There is no new house in this room, but you have been wronged." ”

Xiuxiu said "um", didn't know what it meant, and didn't speak again.

The two have been together for nearly ten years, and they are very familiar with each other. By this time, somehow there was something strange about it. By this time, it was as if they had all changed into a different person.

Xiuxiu's heart was mixed, some were happy, some were a little scared, and some didn't know how to face it. Many of those who worked as concubines in other people's homes were accepted by the male host, and some were even kicked out of the house after becoming pregnant. These Xiuxiu also knew about it, so she often secretly congratulated herself that she had met a good person like Xu Ping.

However, after tonight, the relationship between the two is different, and Xiuxiu doesn't know whether it's good or bad.

There was no incense in the room, and the moonlight passed through the window, like mercury pouring on the ground, which looked a little bleak.

Xu Ping lowered his head and asked Xiuxiu in his arms: "Xiuxiu, why don't you speak?" Is it a little cold when it's windy at night? ”

Xiuxiu shook her head and nodded again, not knowing what it meant.

Xu Ping sighed: "Why do you look so weird tonight?" I can't guess what you're thinking. Forget it, let's go to bed, cover the quilt and it won't be cold. ”

As he spoke, he hugged Xiuxiu to the bed.

When he arrived at the bed, Xu Ping put Xiuxiu on the bed. I thought that Xiuxiu would pounce on the quilt, but she was so ashamed that she buried her face and didn't dare to look at herself. Unexpectedly, Xiuxiu sat quietly on the bed, looking at herself calmly.

Xu Ping was surprised by Xiuxiu, looking left and right, thinking that there was something wrong with him. But when I looked at it, I didn't find anything wrong, so I couldn't help but ask Xiuxiu: "What is Xiuxiu looking at?" Could it be that there is something strange about me? ”

Xiuxiu said calmly: "No." I've been by the side of officials for ten years, and I haven't seen officials take care of themselves. I just see, the officials take off their own clothes, and they will fold them up and put them on their own. ”

Xu Ping laughed when he heard this: "I will take off my clothes myself, but I will not put them away!" By the way, Xiuxiu, not only will I take off my night shirt, but I will also take off yours, do you want to watch it? ”

Xiuxiu's face turned red all of a sudden, turned her head away, and ignored Xu Ping.

Xu Ping gently took off his coat and hung it on the side. Puffed up his mouth and blows out the red candle next to him.

"The warm wind blows the willow ice and cracks, the snow on the small building melts at the beginning, and the golden wind and jade dew meet. The peach blossoms are blooming, and the color is tender and red.

The delicate flowers are not like the grass on the top, the lingering flowers move, and the moon stars are blinded. Dew drops of jade stamen, duck pillow is the spring breeze. ”
