incense as a medium

Chapter 186
Tian'er and the three maids came in just now to serve tea and snacks. After they were all set up, they retreated quietly, together with Mrs. Sun Shao's maids.

There was no outsider in the room for a while, Madam Lin sat up straight and looked at Liu Bailu, and asked, "How have you been these past few years? Don't say those foolish words, when did you write a letter to report good news and not bad news? "

Liu Bailu rubbed the center of his brows, and said with a smile, "Isn't it obvious at a glance how I am doing? My mother-in-law is not worried, my husband is busy with things, and the child is naughty."

Mrs. Sun spat at her, and said: "Are you still pouring bitter water in front of us? I think your two children are more cute and caring than anyone else's. Let me see, I will take my children out too. I've suffered a lot."

Mrs. Lin cast her a glance, and said: "You are willing, but your mother-in-law is willing? But, Bai Lu, apart from being an annoyance to your mother-in-law, we are really envious of you. At least there are no miscellaneous women around. "

"There is nothing in the inner courtyard, and it can't stop people from outside rushing in one after another." Liu Bailu spread his hands and said, "You have seen it today, that Miss Ding Ruo Lanting is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she is here today. The performance is urgent, it should be that her mother is planning to tell her to leave her family, she is not happy, and she is anxious. There is also a response to my husband who saved my life, not to mention her, but her father also said to my husband With a lot of help, her father is now working for the fifth prince. Although there are only two of them, it still makes me burn out."

Mrs. Sun Shao said with a smile: "Hey, every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, mainly because of what your family thinks?"

When Qi Peiyun was mentioned, Liu Bailu smiled sweetly: "He, isn't he now ordered to watch the children and coax his wife? Making me happy is the first priority. As for the other things, he can't take care of them. He is not happy if he takes care of me. This is a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety, so naturally loyalty comes first and then filial piety."

Mrs. Lin heard it clearly, and couldn't help being surprised: "Then you don't care about your reputation?"

Qi Peiyun is a man, and he can talk about the affairs of the inner court regardless of whether he completely throws his hands away. What's more, if the family has a reputation of being unfilial, Liu Bailu will be the first to be condemned, and Qi Peiyun will never Being able to shoulder that responsibility, Liu Bailu smiled calmly: "What reputation do I have?"

Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Sun looked at each other, and Mrs. Sun asked, "But what are you doing?"

Liu Bailu spread his hands, and said: "It's not that I don't say it, but I can't say it, and I don't know very well, so it's useless to say it."

Mrs. Lin chuckled, patted her, and said: "Forget it, forget it, just let us know if you have anything to say." She picked up the tea bowl, put it to her mouth, and took a sip of tea Going down, he said vaguely: "It is said that the Holy Majesty's health is not very good."

"How come?" Liu Bailu asked in surprise.

Mrs. Sun also asked strangely: "Isn't she very strong? You are planning to go to the paddock for autumn, aren't you?"

There are not many royal enclosures in Dazhou, only two. One is the royal garden not far from the outskirts of Beijing. There are three gardens in total, one is a palace, one is a garden, and one is an almost primitive forest. Many rare birds and animals.

The second one is the Bashang Grassland not far from Yongkang Pass. It only takes two days to ride a fast horse from Yongkang Pass to the Bashang Grassland. The frontier pass was not very stable in the past, so emperors rarely went to the grassland to go to Qiuwei.

"Where are you going?" Liu Bailu naturally thought of this and couldn't help asking.

If you put it in the past, you don't need to ask at all, but today is different from the past. The Tatar tribes are in a mess. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Dayan tribe being broken up to expand their respective territories, it will take three to five years for them to stabilize completely. , and then consolidate one's own territory, making long-distance and near-attack or something, it will take ten years of effort, but what about ten years later?The Dayan Ministry makes a comeback...

Basically, the Tatar ministries have fallen into an endless loop. If there is no capable person to unify the ministries, then they will have at least ten years of internal wars to fight. Therefore, the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty can be said to be at ease.

Mrs. Lin took a deep look at Liu Bailu, and said, "Where else could it be? I haven't been to the north for a long time, how can I let this opportunity go? I heard that I will meet the leaders of various Tatar ministries by the way."

Liu Bailu nodded subconsciously, supporting one and suppressing the other, this is Da Zhou's usual practice, but now I'm afraid they will support all of them and watch their internal turmoil, right?

The three friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time talked and laughed for most of the day. After the two children took a nap, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Sun gave the meeting gift they had prepared long ago, and then reluctantly said goodbye: "You just came back, you must There are still many things to be busy, so we will go back first, and we will meet again another day."

Liu Bailu sent the two of them to the side door for a ride, and Mrs. Sun suddenly said before getting into the car, "The Zhou family has a banquet tomorrow, do you want to go?"

"The Zhou family?" Liu Bailu frowned, and said with a half-smile: "Why did she send you a letter?"

"Well, I received it early this morning. It said that today's banquet can't come, let me tell you, I'm annoyed, and then tomorrow we will have a gathering at home with the three of us sisters." Sun Shao Madame said.

Liu Bailu snorted lightly, and said, "Forget it, I'm going tomorrow, but I won't take the two children with me, how about you?"

"I just want to take them, why is my mother-in-law willing?" Mrs. Sun said with a smile: "Now my father-in-law and mother-in-law are really holding them in their hands for fear of falling, and holding them in their mouth for fear of melting. Yes. But fortunately, we have left all the strict disciplines to us, and now my husband and I are bad people in their eyes."

"Look how beautiful you are, if you don't have children to disturb you, you can be loving." Liu Bailu joked.

There are two or three concubines in Mrs. Lin's family. Although it's nothing serious, small troubles are also annoying.Mrs. Sun and the young master of the Sun family are very affectionate. They have given birth to three sons and a daughter in the five or six years of their marriage. This kind of pregnancy rate almost every year has also allowed her to consolidate her position in her husband's family. Now there is nothing wrong with her except for a common room. A distraction for the couple.

Mrs. Sun Shao spat on Liu Bailu in shame, got in the car and left without looking back.

After a busy day, Liu Bailu just had a chance to rest for a while, but he only closed his eyes and fell asleep for a quarter of an hour, so Lan Mo summoned all the servants in the family, even the one who took care of Qi Ding's side was also locked. At the gate of the main courtyard, Xiaoxiang courtyard came to listen to the training.

Liu Bailu really didn't want to bother teaching those servants any more, the banquet was over today, the Qi family didn't have much to worry about for the time being, and everyone who should have left should just leave.

So Liu Bailu did not hesitate to take the deed of prostitution that Qi Peiyun stole from Qi Ding's side, and all the people who came from the Ding family were sold to Ren Yazi. Or those of the Ding family who come and go closer will not even sit down, not even family members.

Such a standard directly led to the fact that there were less than 20 servants in the Qi family's inner house an hour later, and even the mother-in-law who guarded the gate and watched the night was not enough.

But fortunately, in the outer courtyard, sometimes Ce Wu used to serve as guards for them and a group of brothers they recruited from the Lila faction in the capital in the past two years, so the safety of the house can still be guaranteed.

Liu Bailu directly cut off more than half of the servants of Xiaoxiang Courtyard, leaving only Lan Mo's three big maids, a rough envoy and two young maids, and the remaining two second-class maids were sent to Qi Ding. There is only one person left on Miss Zhu's side.

As for the two of Le Yan and Le Ru, Qiu Chun took full power, and the three of Lan Mo would go over to help if they were free.

After everything was arranged, it was already late at night, Liu Bailu took a bath and rested after drinking the medicine, Qi Peiyun, who had been in the outer courtyard all the time, only went to bed in the middle of the night, and hugged Liu Bailu in his arms.

"Do you still know to come back?" Liu Bailu muttered, her anger has not subsided over this matter today, there are guests during the day, she can't say anything, now there are only two of them left, naturally No more scruples.

"Brother Chengqian and I got Lu Shizi drunk, and just took him to the guest room." Qi Peiyun rubbed her neck.

Liu Bailu pushed him: "I smell of alcohol, so I'm ashamed to say it. Go wash it off."

"No," Qi Peiyun hugged Liu Bailu tightly, as if she was afraid that she would run away: "Tonight I will accept the punishment, come on!"

After he finished speaking, he turned over and fell to the side in big characters. With the other hand, he took out a box from the depth of the bed and opened it. Liu Bailu's cheeks were flushed when he saw the various objects inside.

Seeing Qi Peiyun's resignation to fate, Liu Bailu smiled slyly, took out the hemp rope inside and tied Qi Peiyun firmly, threw the candles, leather whips and other things aside, and she took all kinds of objects together. As soon as I picked it up and checked it, I was not satisfied, and then I threw it off the bed, and finally picked up an object shaped like a candied haws and looked at it again and again.

Qi Peiyun couldn't help shrinking his buttocks, looked at Liu Bailu and didn't dare to say a word, begging for mercy?He said the words, isn't it too late to beg for mercy now?But……

Liu Bailu touched the soft ball made of something unknown, flicked it lightly on Qi Peiyun's face, stroked his ear lightly with one hand, and brushed lightly on his neck with his fingertips. After that, he slid into the skirt of his shirt, pinched the little vermilion and circled it.

In the past, Qi Peiyun could bear this kind of situation, but looking at the "candied haws", his little brother raised his head in disbelief. This discovery made him want to dig a hole and bury himself immediately!
Liu Bailu's hand didn't linger on his chest for too long, but slid down bit by bit, touched his stiff abdominal muscles, and finally landed on the three-thirds below the navel, the high spirit was right by her hand , then slide down a little bit and you will come across it.
