Chapter 89 (7.22)

After Chu Yu listened to the story, she went for a walk with Jiang Chun to the house.

The front line has now been pushed to Bei Di, with Wei Yun, Chu Linyang and others in the front line, Gu Chusheng and Zhao Yue in the rear, the situation in Da Chu has generally settled down, and Hua Jing has almost returned to its pre-war appearance, even because many refugees settled down, Prosperity is better than ever, and the streets are bustling with people coming and going.

"Xiaoqi has been on the front line for four years. I don't know when this battle will be over. My mother-in-law has been getting worse and worse recently, and she always misses Xiaoqi." Jiang Chun looked at the passers-by and sighed: "Actually now It’s also settled, and it doesn’t seem to make much sense whether this battle is fought or not.”

"You can't say that," a girl bumped into Chu Yu, Chu Yu held her steady, and said calmly, "If you were beaten, if you let it go, next time he will always think of hitting you again. He beats you. If you can beat him, he will fear you."

Jiang Chun looked up at the passers-by, thought about it, and sighed: "Yes, the people are too hard."

Chu Yu was also a little helpless: "Yes."

"I heard that the land you bought in Xuzhou has a good harvest?"

Speaking of the common people, Jiang Chun remembered that Chu Yu took in those refugees. At the beginning, Wei Yun borrowed money from Chu Linyang and bought a lot of land in Xuzhou, and then sent a large number of refugees there. Those refugees lived and worked in peace and contentment and became long-term workers, and the land was also cultivated in the past four years, and a large amount of food was sent out and sold. to all over the country.

Jiang Chun knew that Chu Yu was busy with these things, and people from the Wei Mansion came and went every day. Now Jiang Chun is in charge of the property in the house and is responsible for throttling expenses, while Chu Yu is in charge of all the assets of the Wei Mansion and is responsible for open source.

In addition to Kaiyuan, Chu Yu also began to train a large number of retainers. After Fengling City, Han Min followed Chu Jin back to Huajing, and his father, Han Xiu, followed him to Chu Mansion, hiding his name incognito. After Chu Yu settled down, he took over Han Xiu and his disciples and was responsible for developing weapons.

It's just that these things are much more concealed, and most of Jiang Chun doesn't know about it. He only sees Chu Yu busy every day and thinks that he is worried about money.

So she talked about the refugees who were guarded in Xuzhou, and after receiving a nod from Chu Yu, she took the opportunity to say: "Actually, Weifu is not short of money now, you don't have to worry too much, money and these things, just look at them.

Chu Yu smiled and did not speak.

Wei Fu didn't know where she was going in the future, so she had to prepare early and wait for that day to come.

Seeing that Chu Yu didn't speak, Jiang Chun wanted to speak up when he heard a voice behind him: "Mrs. Zhaohua."

The two turned their heads and saw Gu Chusheng in a green shirt standing behind them.

With a headscarf on his head and a few books in his hands, he looked like a handsome scholar, without the slightest bit of authority.

Chu Yu and Jiang Chun laughed lightly and saluted, "I have seen Master Gu."

Gu Chusheng looked at the two of them and understood a bit: "Go shopping today?"

"It's good weather." Chu Yu replied casually, and set her eyes on the books that Gu Chusheng was carrying. Those books were strange stories. She remembered that Gu Chusheng liked to read them before he was fourteen years old, and he stopped reading them after the family change. After seeing it, who ever wanted to do it all over again, but she was able to see these loose books in the hands of twenty-year-old Gu Chusheng.

Seeing Chu Yu looking at the book in his hand, Gu Chusheng followed Chu Yu's gaze and realized that he was a little embarrassed. He seemed to feel that he was being looked at by Chu Yu for being so unprofessional. Somewhat wrong. So he coughed lightly and explained, "I just watch it in my spare time, and I'm busy in the courtroom on weekdays, so I don't watch it."

Hearing Gu Chusheng saying this, Chu Yu couldn't help laughing, and said slowly: "Actually, it's nothing, people always have to rest, and I find it very cute to learn that Master Gu has such a taste. I also love watching these. Story, this "The Story of the Hill", I loved it when I was young."

"That's a coincidence." Gu Chusheng smiled: "Among the books I chose today, my favorite is this "The Story of the Hill"."

"This book is also quite long. I'm afraid you will read it for a long time. Now you..." Chu Yu said, and suddenly remembered: "I just remembered, I heard that you were promoted to the Minister of Rites recently, but I forgot to congratulate."

When Da Chu entered the cabinet, he must be promoted by the Minister of Rites. Being the Minister of Rites means that the next step is the Cabinet. Now that Gu Chusheng is young but weak, but already in this position, it can be seen that Zhao Yue is very favored.

Gu Chusheng didn't think there was anything to praise, but Chu Yu congratulated him, he was so embarrassed.

He coughed lightly: "It's all a false name, and there are a lot of things in vain."

As he said that, he turned his head and said, "It's better to meet by chance on a blind date. It's still early today, why don't I invite the two ladies to dinner?"

Hearing this, Chu Yu hesitated for a moment, and was about to say no when she heard Jiang Chun say, "Alright, I'm feeling hungry."

As she said that, she pulled Chu Yu to the side restaurant and said with a smile, "I think this one is good, let's go."

Chu Yu couldn't caress Jiang Chun's face in public, and felt helpless, so she could only follow Jiang Chun and take Gu Chusheng into the restaurant.

The three of them reserved a private room and entered the room. Gu Chusheng ordered dishes first, then turned his head and said to Chu Yu: "The two ladies don't have to be too cautious, there is some news from the front line in the DPRK, and I also want to talk to the two ladies, so I invited the second lady alone. Please forgive me if there are any inaccuracies."

Hearing the news about Wei Yun, the embarrassment in Chu Yu's heart finally dissipated. She breathed a sigh of relief: "How is the front line?"

"Your Majesty discussed with me recently," Gu Chusheng looked at Chu Yu and said slowly, "I want to make peace with Bei Di."

Chu Yu frowned, and Gu Chusheng continued: "Now that the country of Great Chu has stabilized, and the battle line has been pushed to the north. Your Majesty thinks that it is just a waste of manpower to fight now. You also know that Wei Yun is now assisting Tusuo's annexation. With most of the tribes of Bei Di, Tusuo is likely to be the enemy of the Su family as king, in fact, for Bei Di today, it is enough to let their dog bite the dog, and there is no need to interfere too much."

Chu Yu didn't speak, she listened quietly, Jiang Chun stood up and said with a smile, "You guys talk first, I'll go out for convenience."

Chu Yu thought about Gu Chusheng's words, nodded, and didn't ask more.

After Jiang Chun left, Gu Chusheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and the content was much bolder: "In fact, although Tusuo has annexed some tribes, he has no ability to compete with Su Cha. After Su Cha killed Su Can the year before, he annexed Cha. The Tu tribe, Bei Di is united, and morale has greatly increased. Once Da Chu withdraws, Tusuo will be defeated. However, when Bei Di hits now, either we will help Tusuo up and sign a covenant. Or we will completely defeat them."

"Didn't you tell His Majesty these words?"

"What does your majesty mean, don't you know?"

Gu Chusheng's eyes flashed coldness: "He wants Wei Yun to come back now, entirely because he now feels that he can't control Wei Yun and can't let Wei Yun continue to stay outside."

"Isn't he very happy when he let people go?" Chu Yu sneered, and Gu Chusheng replied calmly: "It's because he feels that at this moment, he can take it back."

Chu Yu didn't say a word. No matter how messed up Zhao Yue is, he is still the monarch. The twelve orders of the military will go down. Unless Wei Yun reverses on the spot, he will still have to come back.

She pursed her lips, thinking about how to act. Gu Chusheng looked at her contemplative appearance, and watched quietly.

He rarely has such a quiet time to look at her. Now that he sees her in the sun, thinking about things quietly and gently, he feels a warmth in his heart.

He is like a traveler who has traveled a long way, and he wants a peace of mind from the bottom of his heart, and for him, this peace can't be given to anyone except this person. And even if this person just sits quietly beside him, he can feel the feeling that he has been begging for for two lifetimes.

Chu Yu thought about it for a while, and she probably had a bottom line in her heart. She raised her head and said sincerely, "Although I don't know what your purpose is, thank you."

Gu Chusheng shook his head and said nothing.

On the one hand, he promised Wei Yun that he wouldn't do much before he came back. On the other hand, he knew that today's Chu Yu is like a careful cat emotionally, you can't startle her, you have to guard her until she comes out of that dark nest.

Chu Yu and Gu Chusheng asked a few more details about Zhao Yue's situation, and the snacks were all served. Chu Yu greeted Gu Chusheng to eat, and then she remembered that Jiang Chun never returned.

Chu Yu was a little strange: "What did your wife say to do?"

"The madam said that she was tired of buying too many things, and asked Mrs. Gu to take the madam back home."

Hearing this, Chu Yu understood what Jiang Chun was going to do. She was a little helpless, but she heard Gu Chusheng say: "Eat first, I'll take you back after eating."

"It doesn't have to be..."

"Ayu," Gu Chusheng sighed and looked at her quietly: "Actually, you and I don't have to be like this, you just treat me as an old friend, a young friend, is it so difficult?"

These words made Chu Yu feel so at a loss. She looked at Gu Chusheng with some emotion. After a long time, she sighed and said, "I'll try it."

After speaking, the two chatted while eating.

When I went out, I found that the weather was still clear, but it started to rain. Chu Yu had no umbrella, and the carriage was taken back by Jiang Chun again, so she could only take Gu Chusheng's carriage back to the house.

Gu Chusheng took her into the car, but he didn't. Chu Yu thought that he would go back first, so he breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on the carriage, and quietly digested Gu Chusheng's words.

Wei Yun made Zhao Yue feel threatened. Zhao Yue wanted to recall him, but now she has to make some trouble for Zhao Yue, so that Zhao Yue has no intention of doing this.

And for such a matter, she needs to enter the palace and discuss it with the eldest princess.

Thinking of the eldest princess, she immediately got up, rolled up the curtains of the carriage, and wanted to tell someone to turn around and go to the palace.

However, she rolled up the curtains and called out, "Someone."

Then I saw the young man in the blue shirt take a step forward, bent over and said, "What's wrong?"

He didn't have an umbrella, and the drizzle had already soaked his clothes. His hair was soaked in water and set on his face. However, he was so embarrassed, but he had already carried a kind of peace like jade, and he looked at her quietly, waiting for her order.

Chu Yu stared at him blankly, and it took a long time to react.

"Why are you here?"

"I'm not at ease," Gu Chusheng smiled, seeing her looking at his face with surprise, he raised his hand to wipe his face, and said strangely, "But what?"

Chu Yu didn't speak, she shook her head and finally said, "Go back."

Gu Chusheng smiled and said stubbornly, "It's okay."

He said, "I'll go after sending you this way."
