Time flies like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, the thin shirt was taken off and replaced with a thick mink fur coat.
Mu Siyu reached out to catch the falling snowflakes: "The first snow this year came a little early."
"Second Master sent someone to deliver fresh venison. Madam, how do you eat it?" Zi Su came over with a charcoal fire.
"Send someone to inquire and see if our busy master and Mr. Lu are free to come back early tonight. If not, we will make venison soup. If so, the family will have barbecue in the evening."
"My slave has long expected that you will ask about their whereabouts and has inquired about them." Zi Su said, "Now that the weather is getting colder, the two masters don't seem to be very busy. They said they can go home on time."
"Then prepare to make barbecue." Mu Siyu said, "It's too greasy to eat only venison. Prepare some more vegetables and squeeze some juice to prepare. By the way, pick a jar of last year's wine from the wine cellar."
Mu Siyu personally prepared the vegetables and fruits. However, everything was almost ready. Lu Xuan rushed over, but Lu Yi did not come back.
"My brother was originally with me, but when we were halfway there, he was called back by people from Dali Temple." Lu Xuan said, "He told us not to wait for him. We don't know when he will be able to come back because he is so busy."
Mu Zhenghan put the skewered leeks on the grill and said, "When Shaoyu and I came out of the palace, we saw many ministers kneeling outside the Yangxin Hall."
"Then let's eat! We won't wait for him." Mu Siyu said, "Anyway, there is still a lot of venison, and I can't finish it. I will make braised venison for him when he comes back."
It's snowing for the first time and it's extremely cold.
Mu Siyu asked her servants to add a few more braziers to make the room warm.
Lu Zhiyun said: "I kind of miss my home in Hubei City. The houses there are warm and you are not afraid of the cold even in the cold winter. There is no way to renovate the houses here, we have to carry them."
Lu Zhiqing threw herself on Lu Zhiyun's lap.
Lu Zhiyun quickly picked her up.
The two sisters have big eyes and small eyes, and the white fox fur on their bodies makes them look as delicate as the little fairies in the portrait.
"I miss home too." Mu Siyu took a sip of wine and looked at the flying snow outside, "Hubei City has our relatives, friends, and many beautiful memories."
In a word, everyone thought of their former wanton life in Hubei City, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy.
"Shaoyu, how about going to the study?" Lu Xuan changed the subject.
"It's okay." Lu Shaoyu said concisely and to the point.
Lu Xuan was still waiting for him to say the follow-up, but he didn't wait for the next sentence for a long time. He raised his head and looked at Lu Shaoyu: "The best teachers in the world are gathered there, and you just said 'it's okay'?"
"Even the best teacher in the world may not know how to teach students." Lu Shaoyu said calmly, "Our Master Wen's knowledge is no worse than theirs."
If it weren't for the collection of books in the palace, who would be willing to stay there and watch the intrigues of those foolish princes?
Thinking of Fan Yan's changes and the recent changes of the princes, a touch of irritation appeared on the face that was very similar to Lu Yi's.
"Zhenghan, tell me." Lu Xuan asked Mu Zhenghan again.
Mu Zhenghan was eating barbecue when he heard Lu Xuan call his name. He picked up the handkerchief next to him and wiped his mouth, saying: "The master who went to the study must be a good teacher, but I have average qualifications, so I only learned a little bit."
8. The masters who go to the study are not as equal as Master Wen. They only have eyes for the princes. It doesn’t matter how well we, the companions, learn."
"If you don't want to be your companion, tell the Fifth Prince, and I'm sure he won't embarrass you." Mu Siyu said from the side.
"I don't need to." Lu Shaoyu said calmly, "There are still many books in the collection that I have not read."
"I don't need to." Mu Zhenghan said, "As long as I listen carefully to Master's lectures, I can learn a lot. Besides, besides what is in books, I can also learn a lot of other things."
That is the place closest to the imperial power.
What they see every day are the future leaders.
He can observe them at close range and analyze them. Isn't that better than studying outside?
"In the blink of an eye, Brother Han is already sixteen years old." Mu Siyu looked at Mu Zhenghan's tall figure. "He is no longer a child."
After the barbecue, Lu Xuan returned to his home. Mu Siyu asked his servants to send the children back, and he took a wine bottle and sat in front of the window, watching the flying snow outside and drinking one cup after another.
"Madam, stop drinking. It's too cold. Go to bed early and rest!" Zi Su helped Mu Siyu walk to the bed.
Mu Siyu shook off her hand and sat back by the window: "The snow is particularly beautiful today, I want to see it."
"I'll do it!" Lu Yi's voice came from the door.
Seeing him, Zisu bowed and left.
Ziyuan was adding charcoal to the fire. After adding charcoal to the fire, she closed the door and exited.
Lu Yi had just come back from outside, rubbed his hands in front of the oven, and then came over to close the window.
"The wind is strong and the snow is falling hard. Be careful of getting cold." Lu Yi said, "Why are you drinking today?"
"Suddenly I want to drink." Mu Siyu shook the wine bottle and said, "No more. By the way, we ate barbecue today and didn't leave any for you. We will make braised pork for you tomorrow."
Lu Yi hugged her swaying body: "Are you angry?"
"No." Mu Siyu waved her hand, "You are working hard outside, why should I be angry? If anything, it is heartache."
"He said no." Lu Yi hugged her and pushed her down to sit on the bed. "I don't usually see you drinking. You drank so much today. It must be because I made you unhappy."
Mu Siyu hugged Lu Yi's neck: "Husband, are you happy now?"
Lu Yi had just come back from outside. He was covered in cold air. He originally wanted to change his clothes, but he couldn't move after being held like this by her.
"I'm very happy that you are by my side." Lu Yi touched her hair, "It's just that I was busy with errands and haven't been with you for a long time. I feel ashamed of you."
"As long as you are happy, that's enough." Mu Siyu pounced on him and pinned him down. "I don't understand the affairs of the court, but seeing you so busy every day, and sometimes turning around with your brows furrowed, I
I know you are having a hard time. You have to remember that I will always be with you and support your decision no matter where you are."
Lu Yi held the back of her head.
"Well..."
"Since you support me so much, why not warm the bed? In such a cold day, proper exercise can keep you warm." Lu Yi said in her ear.
A gust of wind blew and the candles in the room went out.
The wind was howling outside, the ground was covered with thick snow, and the cold air enveloped the whole world.
Only that room...
Warm as spring.
"Madam, I suddenly feel that moderate drinking is good." Lu Yi's voice was hoarse and low.
