Xu Miaoyin has been waiting at Xu Renian's bedside for the past two days, taking care of Xu Renian meticulously with her own hands, which frequently made Fang Shuhuai want to knock Xu Miaoyin unconscious and go to Yujing with him.

"No matter how urgent things are in Yancheng, you have to pay attention to your health. Daddy has fallen ill, so you can't let anything happen again!"

Xu Miaoyin and Yuchun Yuqiu carried the luggage and returned Fang Shu to the Chuihua Gate. They helped him tie on his cloak and gave instructions.

"Qin Zhan, you have to help me keep an eye on him and don't let him work too hard. I've asked Yuqiu to copy the medicinal diet for him every day. You must tell him to eat it."

Then Yuchun and Yuqiu gave the two burdens to Qin Zhan.

Qin Zhan took it and respectfully said yes.

Because the excuse for going to Yujing this time was that there was a problem with the salt fields in Yancheng, and someone needed to be in charge to go over to the board of directors, after some discussion, Uncle Song was asked to accompany Fang Shuhuai there. Yancheng is not far from Yangzhou, and there is also the Xu family's village in Yancheng, so

Xu Miaoyin didn't prepare much for Fang Shuhuai, but it was enough for someone who was about to ride a horse in a hurry.

Fang Shuhuai listened patiently to her instructions, with softness in his eyes and heart. He held her hands and said with a warm smile: "Okay, I understand, and so do you. Let servants do many things. Don't always do it yourself.

I exhausted myself."

Xu Miaoyin felt reluctant to give up, but she still smiled and said: "Don't be stubborn. If you have anything to do, discuss it with Uncle Song."

Fang Shuhuai saw that her thoughts were written on her face, so he rubbed her hands and squeezed them, but he was reluctant to do so.

"Okay, I'm leaving, wait until I come back!"

After saying that, he squeezed her hand again, then reluctantly let go. After taking a deep look at her, he turned around and led Qin Zhan out of the Chuihua Gate towards the main door.

Xu Miaoyin subconsciously followed a step, then stopped, until Fang Shuhuai's figure disappeared, she still stood there in a daze for a long time.

"Girl, my uncle has gone far, let's go back." Yuqiu advised warmly.

Xu Miaoyin concealed her reluctance and turned around to walk towards Minghui Hall.

After Fang Shuhuai left, Xu Miaoyin focused on taking care of Xu Renian. In addition to doing housework, she went to Minghui Hall in the morning and waited for Xu Renian to go to bed in the evening before returning to Lanyin Courtyard.

Xu Miaoyin was tired after a busy day. She went to bed early, but she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. When she turned outside, she saw the moonlight filling the ground outside the window she had left open during the daytime in summer.

The half crescent of the moon was shining through the edge of the window, so I simply got up and went to the corridor to look at the moonlight.

She looked at the crescent moon in the night, and her heart seemed to feel empty. Many things during the day left her no time to think about him. Only when the moon was deep and quiet, those worries came to her mind again.

I don't know what he was doing, but things in Yancheng were going well. Thinking about it, he sighed leisurely and went back to the house.

The next day, Yuchun was helping Xu Miaoyin dress up. Looking at the dark blue under the girl's eyes in the makeup mirror, she couldn't help but said: "Girl, you are already blue now. How about you sleep a little longer and come back in the afternoon?"

Let’s go to Minghui Hall?”

Xu Miaoyin shook her head and said with concern: "Cover it with powder, don't let dad see it."

Yuchun sighed secretly and stopped trying to persuade her.

After a while, seeing that there was no trace of Wuqing in front of him, he took Yuchun to Minghuitang.

While waiting for Xu Rennian to finish drinking the medicine, Xu Rennian said warmly: "Miaomiao, you can go back and rest. You don't have to come here every day. You can see that your eyes are blue."

Xu Miaoyin smiled and said: "It's okay, Dad, you are sick and it is my duty as a child to take care of you."

Xu Rennian then advised: "My health is not serious, let alone Xu Ming here, why should I ask you to do it yourself? Otherwise, why should I hire so many servants? You go back and have a rest. If you can't endure it,

Daddy felt distressed when he got sick, and even more distressed when he saw Shuhuai when he came back. Just come and see me every few days, go back!"

At this time, Xu Ming, who was standing aside, said in time: "Yes, eldest lady, the master of the family knows that you are filial. We are here to serve the master, so don't worry."

Xu Miaoyin stood up from the drum stool and saluted Xu Renian, "Dad, please have a good rest, and your daughter will go back first." Then she ordered Xu Ming to take good care of her, and took Yuchun back out of Xu.

Ren Nian's bedroom.

Seeing that Xu Miaoyin had turned out of the corridor, "Xu Rennian" on the bed breathed a sigh of relief. It was really going to kill him. If he allowed his wife to serve him like this, the master would probably have to kill him when he came back!

Xu Miaoyin turned out of the corridor and saw a person walking out of the study, holding several books similar to account books in his hands. He walked towards Xu Renian's bedroom and asked Yuchun to stop this person and bring him over.

Xu Miaoyin looked at the account book in his hand and saw that it was the account book of her own bank, so she asked Yuchun to take it and told the servant that if there were any more account books sent over in the future, they would be sent to Lanyin Court and she would deal with them.

Then he asked Yuchun to return to Lanyin Academy with the account books.

Back at Lanyin Courtyard, Xu Miaoyin really felt a little tired, so she asked Yuchun to put the account book on the desk in the bright room. She would look at it after she had a rest, and then fell asleep with Yuchun taking care of her.

After the morning court, as soon as the emperor walked out of Fengtian Hall, he saw Zhu Weng coming to report: "Your Majesty, we are here!"

As soon as the emperor heard this, he hurried back to Wuji Palace, dismissed all the servants, and went to the bedroom alone. There was only one person standing outside the bedroom. When the man noticed someone approaching and turned around warily, the emperor was startled.

Qin Zhan!

The emperor took a few steps in a hurry, but when he took a closer look, he found that the figure and appearance of this man looked a lot like Qin Zhan, but it was not him. His excited heart cooled down again, and he asked: "Is the master in there?"

Qin Zhan saw that the person who came was wearing a bright yellow court uniform, so he knew who it was, so he stopped being wary and nodded expressionlessly.

The emperor pushed the door open but saw no one. As he walked further in, he heard footsteps coming from the bathroom. Then he saw a tall, thin figure wearing moon-white pajamas walking out of the bathroom, slowly walking towards him.

As he walked towards him, those eyes that seemed to be stained with ink looked at him indifferently and stopped.

The emperor quickly knelt down: "Your Majesty, you are finally back!"

Fang Shuhuai had just finished bathing, with his hair disheveled. His usually gentle eyes were slightly closed at this time, looking down at the kneeling person in front of him, and with a hint of majesty, he said indifferently, "Get up."

Fang Shuhuai walked to Nuange's soft couch and sat down, "Ji Weiliang, thank you for your hard work. Tell me about the important things this month."

After Ji Weiliang got up, he stood respectfully, raised his hand and took off the mask on his face, and said with cupped hands: "The most important thing for the government right now is that the heavy rains in the Yellow River Basin have caused the water level to rise, and many towns and villages have been flooded.

The drought in Yunnan and Guizhou is even more serious. The Yunnan and Guizhou governments submitted their reports a month late. From January this year, rainfall gradually became less and less until March. Officials from the two governments were afraid of taking responsibility and ignored the reports.

The memorial did not explain, and there is also the issue of Duke Rong’s military pay..."

"Okay, I understand. We will discuss the matter of Duke Rong later. Several ministers from the Recruitment Department, the Household Department and the Rites Department are here. Let Zhu Weng come in and change my clothes."

Ji Weiliang handed over his hands and left the dormitory.

After the palace door was closed, Fang Shuhuai walked to the desk with the two memorials on it. The situation in Yunnan and Guizhou was worse than he expected. He had asked the Ministry of Industry to consolidate the defenses in the Yellow River Basin last year. According to this year's rainfall, as long as there is no

If the water level is exceeded, the embankment will not burst, and post-disaster matters are also the top priority...

I have so many clues. If I go back late, I wonder if there will be any problems in Yangzhou.

Xu Miaoyin's reluctant eyes as she sent him away appeared in his mind. He closed his eyes. The most important thing now was to take care of these things.

The sound of the palace door opening interrupted his thoughts. He turned around and saw that it was Zhu Weng who had entered.

Zhu Weng quickly came to Fang Shuhuai, knelt down and saluted with tears in his eyes, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, you are finally back."

Fang Shuhuai's eyes flashed with rare tenderness, and he said helplessly: "Zhu Weng, I have only been gone for a month."

"Your Majesty, please don't leave this old slave behind next time. You've lost weight without me by your side!" Zhu Weng wiped his eyes and his tone was choked with sobs.

Fang Shuhuai shook his head, ignored him, and walked towards the inner hall, "Zhu Weng, please help me change my clothes!"

Zhu Weng said aloud, got up and followed him to the inner room.

In the past two days, Xu Miaoyin saw that the lotus flowers in the lotus pond were in full bloom, so she asked Yuchun to pick some and make them into vases, and sent them to Minghui Hall. It was pleasing to the eye, and Xu Renian's illness could be cured faster.

Yuqiu was coming from the kitchen, holding freshly stewed bird's nests in her hand. She bumped into Yuchun on the corridor and saw a stack of account books in her hand. She glanced sideways into the room and saw Xu Miaoyin.

He was practicing calligraphy in front of the desk and whispered: "You took it from Minghui Hall? Have you checked it?"

Yuchun also said softly: "Same as usual, no problem."

Yuqiu nodded and entered the house with Yuchun.

When Xu Miaoyin saw Yuchun coming back, she raised her head and asked, "Is dad feeling better?"

Yuchun smiled and replied: "The owner of the house likes the vase very much. He has recovered well and can go for a walk in the yard today."

Seeing that she was holding the account book in her hand, Xu Miaoyin took it and started to open it.

Seeing that she couldn't take any time off, Yuqiu joked: "Good girl, the account book won't run away. Let's take a break first and drink the bird's nest."

As he said that, he already brought the bird's nest in front of her.

Xu Miaoyin smiled, put down the account book in her hand, took the bird's nest and drank it slowly.

After she finished drinking, Yuqiu and the others coaxed Xu Miaoyin to go out for a walk in the yard, "You stay in the house all day, or go to the head of the house, let's go to the yard and feel more relaxed.

"

Xu Miaoyin also understood that they were doing it for her own good, and was afraid that she would be too depressed by herself. It happened that she had copied Buddhist scriptures all morning and it was time to go out for a walk, so she just followed their wishes.

Yuqiu guarded Lanyin Courtyard, while Yuchun accompanied Xu Miaoyin to visit the courtyard.

The sunshine is just right today. There are a lot of flowers in the yard, and the lotus flowers in the lake are also beautiful in pink and white. It is like "the little lotus is just showing its sharp corners, and a dragonfly has already stood on it".

Xu Miaoyin suddenly felt more at ease and became more interested. She wanted to take a rest in the pavilion, so she asked Yuchun to get the tea set, cook tea and enjoy the lotus. She also ordered Xu Jiaoyue to be invited over.

Seeing that she was rarely in such a good mood, Yuchun smiled and accepted the order, while Xu Miaoyin was leaning in the pavilion, holding a round fan in her hand, fanning herself leisurely.

At this time, a rustling sound was heard.

The courtyard was quiet, but the sudden sounds were obvious.

Xu Miaoyin heard the sound and looked over. A head emerged from the grass not far away, and their eyes met.

When Xiao Duo saw it was Xu Miaoyin, he was instantly relieved. Seeing that she wanted to call someone, he made a shushing gesture.

When Xu Miaoyin first saw a person emerging from the grass, she was about to call someone. When she saw it was Xiao Duo, she walked over slowly and asked: "What are you hiding in the grass? If I remember correctly, you should be there now."
