Since Chen Shou launched the last palace change and stabbed Wei Yunse to death outside the Daqing Hall, he gradually disappeared from the court.

On the contrary, the water pavilion became the place where state decrees were issued, similar to the Japanese emperor and shogun.

All the things that are upward and issued in many aspects of court affairs, taxation, water conservancy, construction, and military are decided in the water pavilion.

The court officials only knew that there were loyal and brave marquis, but not the emperor. Zhao Cai from Bai Shilin pushed for four, five and six, and ignored everything, and did not attract the attention of officials.

After finishing the government affairs early in the morning, it was almost noon. Chen Shou walked downstairs and lay tired on the couch. Seeing this, Liu'er quickly took off her coat, lay on one side with only a harem and underwear, allowing Chen Shou to sleep comfortably with her arms around.

Chen Shou was taking a nap for a moment when suddenly remembered something, and then turned over and sat up again.

Liu'er, who was sleeping next to her, was startled, stroked her chest and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"

Chen Shou was stunned for a while, got up and put on a robe, pulled the wooden clogs to the third floor, and pushed a silk on the table with a secret letter from Zhao Hong.

Chen Fu was ready to rebellion, but because Zhang Zhengyuan's army was transferred away, he was worried that he would not be able to control these bandits by then, so Zhao Hong asked for instructions on whether to take action.

Chen Shou thought for a long time, and Liu'er came up with a bowl of hot tea, stood behind him, and kneaded his shoulders. Chen Shou took a sip and finally decided to be cautious.

If it was me who was in Hejian Mansion at this moment, not Chen Shou would definitely not have to think about it. The sooner he took action, the better. Try to transform this group of thieves in Hejian into power that can be used for him.

But Chen Fu is not himself, he is not as cruel as himself. In that position, as long as hesitates or has a woman's kindness, he may be stabbed by his own hands.

Chen Fu is not a decisive and ruthless person. If he asks him to clean up the people around him, he will definitely do it continuously. If there are any hidden dangers, it will kill people in his position.

He picked up his pen and wrote a letter, shouted softly, and Zhang He came in.

"Take this letter to Zhao Hong, remember, hurry!"

Zhang He took it and walked out quickly. Chen Shou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Let them make trouble for a while. Chen Shou really can't spare his energy and troops to rush to help Hejian Mansion.

Only when the dust in Hedong is settled can we continue to move on Hejian. Fortunately, Hejian Mansion is not very difficult.

Those thieves were afraid of being beaten and did not dare to leave their sphere of influence. Zhao Hong also had tacit understanding to restrain his subordinates and maintained the surface quietness of Hejian Mansion.

After writing, Chen Shou hugged Liu'er and returned to the downstairs, got into the quilt, hugged Xiangxiang's sleeping with the maid, closed her eyes and prepared to take a nap.

After a while, a slight snoring sound came from Liu'er's ears. She hugged Chen Shou in her arms with some distress and watched him fall asleep.

In the small pavilion in the inner courtyard, there are the sound of silk and bamboo, the sound of orioles and swallows, and the laughter is constantly.

A group of maids and mothers gathered in the pavilion with beautiful wives and concubines by Chen Shou.

Today is Su Qiongzhi's birthday. It coincides with the day when autumn is clear and the river crabs are fat. She specially set up a few tables to invite the little sisters to eat crabs.

The cup and plate in the pavilion were in a mess, and Su Li brought the mansion to sing a small song to perform in the middle to cheer up the fun.

"In the lake in the garden, the lotus seeds are ripe, who wants to pick them?" Lu'er asked.

"I, I'll go!" Yuan Xinzhu, who had just returned home, was the first to respond, and did not forget to pull her little boudoir Tang Wanying.

"Everyone goes there together to be lively."

The autumn rain outside was thick, and the flowers and leaves were broken on the ground. Everyone didn't care about the embroidered shoes wet, and they stepped on the ground with the sound of "Zze Pond" on the ground.

After Li Lingyue was full, she smiled and said, "Sister is a good day today, why didn't you invite that one?"

Su Qiongzhi smiled and said, "I see that he is very busy recently and I don't dare to bother you. It would be fine if he catches up with that man. If he happens to have something to worry about, he will definitely treat your sister as a venting bag. If he has no reason, he will be beaten and scolded. We won't be so unfair."

The women around them covered their mouths and laughed, obviously knowing that Su Qiongzhi was right. When Chen Shou was in a good mood, he could joke with him, and he wanted to spoil his wives and concubines in his arms to the sky. But if he was in a bad mood, he would also like the concubines to vent their anger and relieve them. Except for Li Lingyue, no one in the audience had ever been tricked by him.

Su Li, who was standing beside him, felt a little guilty when he heard it. Chen Shou was in a bad mood every time he went to her yard, he would definitely have to whip it. Last time he hung himself up and threw it into a pot, he was very ashamed when he thought about it. He really didn't know where he learned so many vulgar methods of perverting people.

Li Lingyue smiled and said, "It's a birthday no matter how you say it's a birthday. It's not okay if he doesn't give his sister this face. I'll call him here in person."

When Su Qiongzhi heard that Li Lingyue was going to take action in person, she was very happy. Naturally, she longed for Chen Shou to accompany her.

"It's good, this thing gets cold in a while and it won't taste good anymore."

Li Lingyue stood up and came to the water pavilion. Tao'er was doing a girl outside the door of the second floor. When she saw her coming up, she quickly put down the needlework in her hand and made a blessing, "Madam."

"Where is the master?"

"I'm resting in there. I've been sleeping for half an hour and haven't had enough meals yet. The maid is hesitating whether to wake up the master."

Li Lingyue frowned and said, "How can you do not eat? I'll call him."

After pushing the door open, Chen Shou couldn't sleep until he died. He opened his eyes when he heard the sound of the door.

Li Lingyue sat down beside the bed, Chen Shou held her hand and smiled and said, "Why are you here?"

Li Lingyue lowered his head and pecked his cheek, and smiled and said, "Today is Sister Su's birthday. Everyone is eating crabs in the pavilion. Do you want to go?"

Chen Shou pretended to be angry and said, "Okay, you can eat delicious food yourself and leave me, the head of the family behind you."

"Then you get up and let's go together."

Chen Shou got up from the quilt, put on his clothes, pinched Liu'er's cheek, and smiled and said, "I'll ask the little maid to send you two."

After saying that, Chen Shou and Li Lingyue lowered their arms downstairs and walked downstairs. Li Lingyue asked, "Husband, are you a little tired recently?"

Chen Shou nodded and said, "It's okay, there are many trivial matters."

He did not talk about the war in Hedong, nor did he say that he was worried about Chen Fu, nor did he mention his second brother.

Yue'er and Feng'er are different. If you tell her these things, they are useless and make her anxious.

Li Lingyue lowered her head, feeling a little unhappy, and said, "Isn't it useless? I can't help at all?"

Chen Shou was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Silly girl, it's better for me to manage the inner courtyard than anything else. We are a couple, the division of labor is different."

"Li Lingfeng can definitely help you..."

Li Lingyue was still very disappointed and was a little scared. Her sister was so powerful that she could not compare with her since she was a child.

Chen Shou knew that once this issue was involved, every one would be given a question, so he quickly said, "Qiongzhi turned out to be her birthday today. It's such a coincidence, hahahaha..."

PS: I wish you all the brothers a happy New Year's Eve, thank you for your company in 2020
