Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Regardless of whether Hui Niang was willing to do all this for her husband, or Zhao Feixuan put pressure on her, the result is that Hui Niang has already come.

In any case, as a man, Zhao Feixuan was wrong.

Even if there are a thousand and 1 reasons, women cannot stand up for men.

This is the bottom line of a man, at least as a man, Guo Ye thinks so.

changed!

Zhao Feixuan has completely changed, and Guo Ye has become a little unwilling to associate with him anymore.

"Hey, Marquis of Yizhou, are you going to say it or not?"

Seeing that Guo Ye was in a daze and lost in thought, Hui Niang couldn't help but yelled sullenly, "If you have nothing to say, please give me the letter of recommendation."

Guo Ye suddenly sighed, and reminded with some puns: "Mrs. Zhao, haven't you noticed that Governor Zhao has become a little different recently? If possible, Mrs. Zhao should pay more attention to your husband."

"Well?"

Hui Niang didn't know why Guo Ye suddenly changed the topic to her husband. Although she was confused, she could still hear the good words. Guo Ye was obviously belittling her husband in front of her, saying that her husband Bad words.

Especially when thinking of Guo Ye's disrespect to her repeatedly, Hui Niang immediately understood Guo Ye's sinister intentions, which was to alienate and provoke the relationship between her and her husband.

Immediately, Hui Niang said contemptuously with evil eyes: "Yizhou Marquis, gossip behind other people's back, this is not what a man does. I didn't expect my husband to respect you so much, and even trust you a hundred times, but you are behind others!" Telling the truth, he really misjudged you."

Grandma, wronged!

Guo Ye felt depressed again, obviously, he could see that Hui Niang had misunderstood him again.It's no wonder, who let himself have a criminal record against her before, and still say that her husband is wrong in front of her?

But now that the words have been uttered, when it comes to this juncture, he might as well point out some more, so he shrugged and asked back: "Don't Mrs. Zhao know the purpose of Governor Zhao asking me for this letter of recommendation? He just wants to get acquainted with Shangshu Kong through this letter of recommendation, and then become a disciple of Master Kong, so that he can move to Chang'an in the future and leave the barren land of Yizhou. Does Mrs. Zhao know about this?"

Hui Niang sneered and said, "How could I not know? My husband pleaded for the life of the Gu family in Ruzhou, but he offended Lu Chengqing, a villain. Lu Chengqing also bewitched His Royal Highness Wei Wang, sowed right and wrong in front of Wei Wang, and finally my husband was demoted to Shuzhong." Yizhou. As the saying goes, people go to high places, and water flows to low places. I don’t think my husband did anything wrong. He studied hard for ten years, and after being a scholar in high school, he started as a county magistrate of Qipin, and went all the way down. He hoped to be protected by Mr. Kong, so what is wrong with being promoted to Chang'an?"

Haha, Guo Ye was stunned, but he didn't expect that Hui Niang's pungent temper would speak in a way, and she was orderly and not chaotic at all.

But it seems that she still doesn't know why Zhao Feixuan offended Lu Chengqing.Silly girl, isn't it because of your beauty?Aren't you afraid that there will be another time when your husband will finally push you to the arms of shameless people on the couch?

Since Zhao Feixuan didn't tell her clearly, Guo Ye didn't want to point it out, but asked from another aspect: "Madam Zhao, haven't you noticed that Governor Zhao has changed a lot recently? Worrying about gains and losses, from the gentle and jade-like temper in the past to the irritability and mania now, haven’t you noticed these things? You should count them carefully. Since you were demoted to Yizhou, how many times your husband has pissed you off. Have you ever counted?"

After Guo Ye's head-to-head questioning, Huiniang couldn't let Huiniang stop thinking...

Because what Guo Ye said is precisely the truth. As the saying goes, it is better to know a son than a father, and know a husband better than a wife. How could she not notice the recent changes in her husband?

These days, she has always heard that her husband is about to jump out of Yizhou, always worrying about gains and losses, and always worrying about whether His Royal Highness Wei Wang still has a grudge.

These days, she can always notice that her husband is always tossing and turning and can't sleep at night. If something goes wrong, he will get angry with the people around him, even herself and Yue'er, her husband has vented his anger more than once .

At this time, she couldn't help being shaken by Guo Ye's words.

But women are always emotional animals. In the face of reason and sensibility, they often choose the latter.

Faced with Guo Ye's doubts and feeling shaken in her heart, Hui Niang finally shook her head severely, and shouted loudly: "No, don't exaggerate, don't use tricky words, my husband hasn't changed, he is still the same He was, he is, and he will be in the future."

After shouting, Hui Niang returned to her original cold look, and stretched out her hand to demand, "Since the Marquis of Yizhou has finished speaking, please give me the letter of recommendation!"

"you……"

Guo Ye couldn't help but choke for a while seeing Huiniang's refusal to get in, and her continued stubbornness.

Grandma, it's really useless to be a villain this time, and you don't appreciate it, don't you know it?

Thinking of this, Guo Ye felt even more flustered, because he wanted to persuade Hui Niang to be more careful this time, but he didn't realize that he ended up being a donkey with good intentions, and was treated by Hui Niang. Don't be a fool.

Well, what about love!

Immediately, he handed the recommendation letter in Hui Niang's hand directly, then withdrew his hand and waved it fiercely, shouting: "That's all I said, believe it or not!"

Hui Niang is not a character to get along with, as soon as her hot temper came out, she turned around and trotted away from the study, not even leaving a polite word of thanks.

After staying in the study here, the horse-hanging tables in the flower hall over there were also gone. It was getting late and the night was cold, and it was time to go to bed and rest.

One night passed, and the next day Hui Niang left Guo Mansion with Yue'er and returned to Yizhou by boat.

Around the ninth day of the first lunar month, Cheng Erniu and Guo Xiaoman got up and moved back to Xichuan with their children in their arms.

Time flies, and a few more days passed, and soon it was the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

Longxi County is naturally lively during the Lantern Festival, no less than New Year's Eve, whether it is in the city or the Guo Mansion in Fushun Lane, it is full of joy.

Of course, as the Lantern Festival passed by slowly, there was a slight sense of sadness in the Guo Mansion.

The days of family reunion are always so short, as long as the Lantern Festival is over tonight, Guo Ye will set off with Wu Xiuxiu tomorrow and return to Yangzhou.

Chapter 818 Return, shock

Guo Ye and his party set off from Longxi in the early morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, and it was already the end of the first month when they arrived at the ferry at Dongmen Wharf in Yangzhou by boat, and the first month was about to pass.

Wu Xiuxiu was a little tired from the long journey, so Guo Ye was there to support her from the time she got off the river boat to the time when she walked up to the ferry terminal.

At this time, Chen Jitao had already led a group of government officials to wait at the ferry, and Liu Zhenxuan also led [-] government soldiers to put martial law on the entire ferry terminal for safety.

When Guo Ye helped Wu Xiuxiu to come to the crowd, Chen Jitao and a group of officials, big and small, stepped forward one after another, clapped their hands together, and said warmly, "Your Excellency, welcome back to Yangzhou."

"Master Inspector has worked hard all the way."

"Looking at Madam's complexion, it's not suitable to take a bumpy ride. Why don't you take a sedan chair to the city and go back to the government office to rest?"

Seeing that they had already prepared the sedan chair, Guo Ye thought in his heart that it was not suitable for Xiuxiu to take the car at this time, it would be better to take the sedan chair instead.

Immediately, he rushed to Zhang Jiujin and Wang Bajin who were accompanying him and said: "Let the madam go back to the government office in a sedan chair. I, Chen Juncheng and others will drive slowly. You two will bring some people to follow the madam. Don't come out." Flaw. Got it?"

"Got it!"

Zhang Jiujin and Wang Bajin took a few people, put Wu Xiuxiu into a soft sedan chair, and rushed to Yangzhou City, five miles away from the ferry.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Zhenxuan led five hundred government soldiers followed closely behind, clearing the way for Guo Ye to return to the city.

Other government officials set off to return to the city in sedan chairs or cars.

Guo Ye waved at Chen Jitao and said, "Mingren, you ride with me, and report to me what happened during the days when I was not in Yangzhou."

Chen Jitao hummed apprehensively, then got into a carriage with Guo Ye, and walked at the end of the long snake-like procession returning to the city.

The car and horses drove along in a bumpy way, Guo Ye and Chen Jitao sat on each side of the car, speechless for a while.

As long as Guo Ye didn't take the initiative to ask questions, Chen Jitao obviously didn't intend to initiate a conversation.

After probably not seeing each other for more than a month, Guo Ye found that Chen Jitao's temples were a little frosty white, and his face was sad and sad, and he lowered his head from time to time, as if suffering from pain in his heart.
