The marriage arrangements were almost done, and Han Lubai went to buy new clothes for Zhao Yuxin in person.
Guard Han Yang couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the time when his general walked into a clothing store to buy clothes.
The general just stood in the store, hands behind his back, tapping the clothes he liked with his chin, and asked the shopkeeper to wrap them all up.
doesn't care about size or style.
The clothes chosen are either dull in color or old in style.
Han Yang didn't understand: the future general's wife was obviously stunning, so she should wear bright and bright clothes. But the clothes the general chose greatly compromised her appearance.
The jewelry the general chose were all simple wooden hairpins and hairpins, which looked dull when worn on his head.
Could it be that the general deliberately used this method to conceal the beauty of his future wife?
Although the marriage ceremony is simple, it is also complete. Eight sedans are carried , and the bride is getting married.
Old Madam Wei was indeed difficult to deal with. On the day of her wedding, she wanted to give Zhao Yuxin a big blow.
She deliberately asked people to close the door and set up obstacles at the door to prevent Zhao Yuxin from entering the door openly. Instead, she wanted her to climb in through the obstacles like a dog.
Zhao Yuxin stood at the door without moving. Just when he was angry, his body suddenly rose into the air and was held in Han Lubai's arms.
There was only a "bang" sound, and the thick red lacquer door fell down with the sound, frightening the guests who came to watch the ceremony to look pale and at a loss.
Han Lubai carried Zhao Yuxin all the way to the lobby. Zhao Yuxin was wearing a hijab and could not see Wei's face, so he thought it would not look good.
Mrs. Wei was afraid that she would really offend Han Lubai and ruin the livelihood of the three of them, mother and son, so she had to endure it with a straight face until the end of the ceremony.
"You sleep on the bed, and I sleep on the floor." On the wedding night, Han Lubai did not do anything wrong. She spread the bedding under the bed and slept in her clothes.
Zhao Yuxin could not sleep.
has been away from the palace for more than a month. Han Lubai has never taken the initiative to mention the treasure, and is focused on preparing for their marriage.
Now that they are married, why is Han Lubai still indifferent to the treasure, without even asking?
This man is really unpredictable.
Since he didn't take the initiative to mention this matter, she naturally wouldn't take the initiative to mention it, and it would only be a temporary delay.
Now she is Han Lubai's wife, and she will always have the opportunity to go to the palace to meet her adoptive mother and younger brother.
In this way, she had to build a good relationship with Han Lubai and gain his trust.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yuxin got up and got out of bed, covering Han Lubai with the quilt. When she was about to get up, she suddenly felt dizzy and she was pinned down on the mattress.
Han Lubai lay on her shoulder and chuckled. He was about to kiss her, but was pushed away by Zhao Yuxin.
The next day, Zhao Yuxin went to serve tea to Mrs. Wei. Mrs. Wei threw her a red envelope and told her to be filial to her parents and take care of her brother-in-law and sister-in-law.
In addition, she was also responsible for preparing three meals a day for the house.
The Han family is not a wealthy family, and its only source of income is Han Lubai's salary.
Coupled with Han Jinbao's extravagant spending, the family is always stretched.
Before, there were only five servants in the Han Mansion. Three maids served the Wei family, Han Jinbao and Han Qiaoer respectively. Two handymen were responsible for guarding the gate, cleaning the courtyard, trimming flowers and plants, feeding horses, etc.
The eldest daughter-in-law, Zhou, is responsible for making and washing clothes for the family. Zhao Yuxin, the second daughter-in-law, is naturally responsible for cooking and washing dishes.
Before, Han Qiaoer, an unmarried girl, was cooking and washing dishes.
"My Qiao'er is not yet married. If she becomes tired and emaciated with calluses on her hands and feet in her parents' home, how can she marry into a good family in the future? As a sister-in-law, you must always be considerate of your sister's situation..."
Seeing Han Lubai present, Wei did not dare to go too far towards Zhao Yu, but kept nagging.
Zhao Yuxin: “…Yes."
She heard Jin Lan say that women in ordinary families have to do a lot of work. Now, she has become an ordinary woman, and it is impossible for her to do nothing.
But she doesn't know how to do it at all.
Back in the room, Zhao Only then did Yu Xin know that the maid Han Lubai bought for her was the best at cooking. Just leave everything to her. Zhao Yuxin only had to cook from the side. Come on, help.
It turns out that Han Lubai had already expected that Mrs. Wei would hand over the cooking work to Zhao Yuxin, so she bought a capable maid specifically for her.
Han Lubai took Zhao Yuxin's hand. Kneading it gently, he chuckled and said: "I didn't marry you to tire you out, I just hope that you will regard this place as your home for the time being, and one day in the future, I will give you the best life. "
Zhao Yu's heartbeat suddenly became turbulent. He calmly took out his hand and shook his head: "You don't have to worry about me. I am a palace maid. I have never suffered any hardships or done any work in the palace. I will take good care of it. Own. "
" As long as you are willing to stay here. Han Lubai smiled softly and handed her a box. In addition to the salary, there were rewards from His Majesty. "The Han family has always been headed by the Wei family, but she has always been mean to outsiders. I'm afraid you will be aggrieved." I saved these, you put them away and look at the flowers by yourself. "
"..." Looking at the box on his lap, Zhao Yuxin felt very uncomfortable.
As a subjugated princess, she had to be adopted by an enemy general?
On the third day of their marriage, Han Lubai Began a busy life , I went out early and came back late, and I didn’t know what I was busy with.
Zhao Yuxin had to fight her wits with the vicious mother-in-law and the lewd uncle, and get closer to the forbearing sister-in-law and the simple sister-in-law.
"Oh, I said. Why does the kitchen smell so fragrant today? It turns out that my second sister-in-law is here. "Seeing that Han Lubai was not at home, Han Jinbao dragged her out of the room.
Before the wound made by Zhao Yuxin with the scissors fully healed, he healed the scar and forgot about the pain, and came to tease her again.
Zhao Yuxin concentrated on steaming the steamed buns without even looking back.
Han Jinbao blinked his narrow eyes and stared at Zhao Yuxin's waistline.
After learning the lesson from last time, he didn't dare to get too close to her, so he used words to tease her.
"Second sister-in-law, you." Why are you so beautiful? I've seen all the girls in the flower house, but none of them can compare to you. Then what kind of courtesan who is famous all over the capital has less than one-tenth of your appearance..."
Han Jinbao casually took the steamed white buns, kneaded them obscenely, and stared at Zhao Yuxin. It meant something.
Zhao Yuxin felt disgusted, but a delicate smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It turns out that it's the third brother who got up extra early today. "
When Han Jinbao saw Zhao Yuxin smiling at him, his body had already softened, and when he heard her seductive soft words, he couldn't even move, "Second sister-in-law, where am I staying in the room? Come on, I have been anxious to see my second sister-in-law for a long time. "
Zhao Yuxin smiled softly, easily attracting Han Jinbao's attention. He didn't even see the piece of firewood at his feet.
He only heard a "pop" sound, and Han Jinbao was shaken by the firewood without any image.
h on the ground. tml0 His head was too close to the fire, and his hair started to burn."Ah——" Han Jinbao screamed like a pig while running towards the yard, and soon everyone in the Han Mansion was killed. Recruited.
Zhao Yuxin was captured by Wei. She was so scolded that if the maid hadn't stopped her, Wei would have beaten her to death, and finally punished her by depriving her of food.
In order to get rid of Han Jinbao's entanglement, Zhao Yuxin deliberately asked the maid to spread rumors: Shen Xiangzi said that she was born with an unlucky nature. Will defeat the people around him
Wei Shi. He had always been superstitious, and he told Han Jinbao to stay away from Zhao Yuxin.
He worked hard and was scolded and punished. In just one month, Zhao Yuxin had lost a lot of weight.
When Han Lubai came back, Zhao Yuxin and Zhou were hiding in the kitchen eating peaches.
Mrs. Wei was very strict, and she would leave everything delicious and delicious to her two children. She had no share of Mrs. Zhou and Zhao Yuxin at all.
Zhao Yuxin secretly bought some fruits and snacks and hid them in the kitchen, waiting to eat with Zhou in the dead of night.
After Zhou left, Han Lubai touched Zhao Yuxin's face distressedly and handed her a land deed, "The Han Mansion is small and cannot accommodate so many people. If you like, you can move to a new house."
Zhao Yuxin gave Han Lubai the half-eaten peach, got up and ran to the house to pack her things and prepare to move.
She was really fed up with Wei's abuse and Han Jinbao's coveting.
Han Lubai looked at her turbulent back, shook her head and chuckled, finished the remaining half of the peach, and helped pack things together.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Wei found that Zhao Yuxin was missing, leaving only worthless furniture in the room and a letter left by Han Lubai.
She immediately sat on the ground, crying and cursing, "They say you forget your mother when you marry a daughter-in-law. Han Lubai, you are a heartless person. You actually left us. How can you be worthy of your dead father? Our three mothers have to do it." how to live Ah."
Han Qiaoer took the letter and read it again, and whispered: "Mom, the second brother said that his monthly salary is divided into two-thirds of us. He did not ignore us and just wanted to live a life of two with his second sister-in-law."
Mrs. Wei glared at her and said angrily: "How much is his monthly salary? Even if it is given to us, it is not even enough for our mother to spend. The most important thing is His Majesty's rewards from time to time."
Han Qiaoer: "But the second brother said in the letter that he was demoted by Your Majesty for a mistake, and I'm afraid there will be no reward in the future."
After hearing this, Wei got up from the ground and asked someone to investigate, fearing that Han Lubai would harm them. .
Han Lubai was indeed demoted because he wrote a letter to persuade His Majesty to be diligent in his duties. Liu Junchi became angry and demoted the civil servants and generals who wrote the letter, and demoted those who demoted.
Han Lubai was originally a general leading the army, but now he was sent to guard the city gate. Not only was he not annoyed, he was happy and at ease.
plays fish in a fugue when he is on duty, and when he is not on duty, he accompanies Zhao Yuxin to decorate his new house.
The house is not big and there are not many servants, but Zhao Yuxin likes it very much and decorates it how she wants.
Han Lubai always likes to stand next to Zhao Yuxin and watch her busy around, with a light smile and an indulgent look.
"I heard that His Majesty Liu is ill, is it true?" Zhao Yuxin raised her head and asked Han Lubai while watering the newly planted flowers.
Han Lubai saw that her posture was uncomfortable, so she squatted beside her and said seriously: "It is true. Your Majesty has to deal with the affairs of the previous dynasty and benevolent to the concubines in the harem. How can you not get sick after working hard?"
Zhao Yu I always felt that Han Lubai was mocking Liu Junchi, which showed that his expression was serious, but he didn't look like he was joking.
It is said that after Liu Junchi ascended the throne and took over the harem, he became addicted to women and did not want to make progress. Not only did he leave the government to his personal servant, the ugly girl, but he also frequently doted on his concubines.
He especially dotes on Concubine Hao Guifei and Concubine Zhen, and sometimes even invites them to sleep together.
Concubine Hao was originally the concubine of her father, and she always knew how to be charming; the true concubine was originally a princess conferred by her father, and she wanted to fly to the branches.
In order to consolidate their status in the harem, it would be strange for these two women not to squeeze Liu Junchi dry.
Liu Junchi has no sons. If he falls, there will be chaos in the court and war will break out again.
The ugly baby was not a eunuch, but a general under Liu Junchi. She was fair-skinned and beautiful, and her gender was indistinguishable. Because of her affair with Liu Junchi's concubine, Liu Junchi turned her into an eunuch and changed her name to Chouwa.
Instead of hating Liu Junchi, this ugly boy tried to please him in every possible way, even going to bed to please him.
Liu Junchi likes the ugly baby very much, and becomes more and more dependent on him, always keeping him with him.
Now, for the sake of his own happiness, Liu Junchi actually handed over the government affairs to Chouwa.
Since the ugly baby lost his sense of being a man, his personality has become more and more surly and unpredictable.
In front of Liu Junchi, he tried his best to suppress and restrain himself, not wanting Liu Junchi to see it.
Now that he has the power and is in charge of the ministers, he can't help but do whatever he wants, causing chaos in the court.
Civil and military officials naturally did not want to be scorned by a eunuch, for fear that it would cause turmoil.
Zhao Yuxin looked at Han Lubai, always feeling that he had other purposes for accepting the demotion so calmly.
These days, Han Lubai secretly had "private meetings" with many people, and she didn't know what she was plotting.
Soon, Zhao Yuxin knew Han Lubai's "conspiracy".
Liu Junchi fell into a coma, and the ugly baby refused to let anyone see him, which triggered protests from the ministers.
Han Lubai took the opportunity to take action. With Yang's internal and external cooperation, she led her trusted subordinates to get rid of the ugly baby and took control of the former harem.
Before this, he had already bribed the civil servants and military generals who were dissatisfied with Liu Junchi, and now he was unstoppable and had no disadvantages.
"Concubine, why are you helping Han Lubai?" When Zhao Yuxin saw Concubine Yang, she was sitting in the palace of his younger brother Zhao Yuanchen, holding his favorite puppet in her hand.
Concubine Yang held Zhao Yuxin in her arms, and then said: "Han Lubai sent someone to see me with the jade key your father gave you, saying that he would avenge your father and brother and help me regain my freedom. , I promised him the best life."
Zhao Yu was speechless. She didn't know that Han Lubai had done so many things without telling her.
"Yu'er, tell my concubine, are you and Han Lubai not getting along well?" Yang stared into Zhao Yuxin's eyes, wanting to hear her truth.
"...It's not a bad thing." Zhao Yuxin sighed, "But after all, he was an accomplice who rebelled against Liu Junchi and forced his father and younger brother to death."
Concubine Yang shook her head and smiled bitterly, " Your father is addicted to wine and sex, no? The government has been in power for a long time, and the country is already on the verge of collapse. Liu Junchi and Han Lubai were not the only ones to rebel. It would be a matter of time before the country and family were destroyed. At least Han Lubai protected you and avenged me. "
She didn't. I hate Han Lubai, but I only hate Liu Junchi who personally ordered the execution of Zhao Yuanchen.
Zhao Yuxin was naturally grateful for Han Lubai's polite treatment, but he still couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart, "Mother, since you want to leave, take me away. I would rather stay with you than stay here. Living with the emperor's brother."
Yang stroked her head and sighed lovingly: "I can see that Han Lubai really likes you and wants to. Take care of you. He didn't use the dowry your father left for you, and he didn't want you to be involved in these dangerous calculations. He always protected you and kept you away from the fight. "
"...But I still do. Want to leave."
While Han Lubai was in charge of the former court and had no time to take care of the harem, Zhao Yuxin fled the palace with Yang and Prince Rong, away from the capital.
She doesn't want to stay in a place of right and wrong like the capital, she just wants to find a secluded and safe place to spend the rest of her life.
Unfortunately, she had just escaped from the capital when she was stopped by Han Lubai.
"You know I will leave?" Zhao Yuxin left the jasper key in the palace, and even drew a treasure map. He thought that Han Lubai would let her go after getting the treasure, but he didn't expect that he would leave the country's affairs alone. Come after her yourself.
She finally escaped with her family to the mountains outside the capital. She wanted to wait until the storm was over before leaving, but she didn't expect that such a secret place could be easily found by Han Lubai.
Han Lubai saw her confusion and shook the cloth in her hand.
Zhao Yuxin took a look and saw that it was torn from Yang's clothes. So, Concubine Yang has been leaving marks for Han Lubai. Why?
She turned around to look for Yang and Prince Rong, and found that they had already disappeared.
Zhao Yuxin: "..."
"Want to hear a story?" Han Lubai stood on the cliff with his hands behind his hands, looking in the direction of the capital.
"That year, I came to Beijing with my father to seek life, and happened to encounter the emperor leaving the palace with his concubines and princesses to escape the summer heat.A gust of wind blew through the team and lifted the curtain of one of the cars. I saw a fairy-like girl sitting inside. She was small, white, delicate but beautiful. I only remember that she poked her head out curiously, staring at a pair of big moist eyes, and her gaze passed over me. "
" Maybe, she didn't see me at all, but I kept her in my heart. I was thinking: I want to marry her. "
Only then did Zhao Yuxin remember that such an incident had indeed happened.
At that time, she was at a lively and active age, and she got the opportunity to go out of the palace to escape the summer heat with her father.
Before leaving the palace, Concubine Yang and the maids one She was warned again that she must not open the curtain on the road, let alone let anyone see her face, so as not to tarnish the royal dignity.
She was very bored in the carriage and could only listen to the sounds outside.
At this moment, the curtain was blown up by the wind, and the fresh air The warm and bright sunshine suddenly shone in.
Zhao Yuxin was very happy. Before the palace maid lowered the curtain, she looked out and met the burning eyes of a young man.
He was staring at her intently. h eyes sparkling and curious. tml3
Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly looked away.
It turned out that Han Lubai was that young man.
"Yu'er, I married you not because of your status or wealth, but because of who you are. . " Han Lubai said, snatching the package from Zhao Yuxin and throwing it at the foot of the cliff.
"The reason why I raised an army to seize power is not only because I want to be the emperor, but also because I want to give you the best life. Do you really not want to stay with me? "Han Lubai hugged Zhao Yuxin into her arms, held her tightly, and asked her for her opinion, but she didn't intend to let her go.
Zhao Yuxin looked at the imperial city at the foot of the mountain and sighed secretly. , it seems that she will never want to leave here in this life.
