Chapter 176 Actions of all parties
"Sister-in-law?"
Fusu looked at Tang Yu with a completely bewildered expression.
After all, when he learned his teacher's age, he had been arranging marriages for him in various ways.
In fact, for the sake of Tang Yu's marriage, Fusu, together with Ying Zheng, screened all the beautiful noblewomen in the entire Qin state.
Tang Yu didn't like any of them.
But now, Tang Yu went to Pei County and actually brought back a sister-in-law for himself?
"Yes, sister-in-law, you can just call her sister-in-law, you don't need to worry about anything else."
Fusu nodded, bewildered.
But he was still curious.
What kind of charm will the woman who returns later possess that has even stirred the heart of her teacher?
"Zilong, I'm back."
Today, Lü Zhi was wearing a light blue gauze dress with a flowing skirt, making her look radiant and beautiful.
Especially after that night with Tang Yu, she seemed to have been rejuvenated.
Her face was as red as a peach, and her eyes were as full of spring, like a truly ripe peach.
Lü Zhi's age of over 30 was not a disadvantage, but rather an advantage.
Despite her age, she looks like she's in her mid-twenties, with the face of a mature and sophisticated woman.
Looking at Lü Zhi's appearance, Fusu, who was standing to the side, also praised her.
Empress Lü was truly, truly beautiful.
After all, as the crown prince of Qin Shi Huang, Fusu had naturally seen all kinds of beautiful women in the palace.
But if you ask yourself honestly, this woman's looks would rank among the top three of all the women Fusu had ever seen in his life.
This is enough to demonstrate Lü Zhi's beauty.
As soon as Lü Zhi returned, she saw that Tang Yu was also sitting next to a distinguished young nobleman dressed in white.
She panicked for a moment, after all, she didn't know the identity of this person or Tang Yu.
Just now, there was the somewhat affectionate way Lü Zhi addressed them, and the overly familiar manner between the two sides.
If word gets out, it will likely be bad for both of their reputations, both for themselves and for Tang Yu.
Seeing Lü Zhi's awkwardness, Tang Yu not only didn't hesitate, but instead took a step forward and took Lü Zhi's hand.
The moment Tang Yu grabbed her hand, Lü Zhi was completely dumbfounded.
She never expected Tang Yu to be so bold as to grab her hand directly.
This happened in public; if word got out, how would we two face each other...?
A married woman was caught having an affair with a complete stranger...
"Lu Zhi, do not be afraid. This man is my younger brother, Zhao Fusu, and also a member of my Zhao family!"
“In the past, I worked with my uncle in business and looked after the Zhao family’s caravan. Recently, since there was nothing to do, I returned home.”
Hearing what Tang Yu said, Lü Zhi finally felt relieved.
After all, she had just prepared herself for social death.
But now that these are actually her own people, how could Lü Zhi not be overjoyed?
Seeing the shy Lü Zhi in front of him, and the intimate way Tang Yu and Lü Zhi were, Fu Su quickly stepped forward and said something.
"Hello, sister-in-law."
"Hello, Young Master Zhao Fusu."
"Wait a minute, what did you call me?"
Empress Lü returned the greeting, but then looked at Fusu with a bewildered expression.
She never expected that Fusu would address her in such a way.
After all, her identity in the Zhao family was that of Zhao Zilong's elder brother and Liu Bang's wife.
She is by no means worthy of the title of "sister-in-law".
Whether it's Madam Liu or anyone else, calling her "sister-in-law" is really inappropriate.
However, the other party's use of the term "sister-in-law" at this moment was clearly not referring to his relationship with Liu Bang, but rather to his relationship with Zhao Zilong.
"This... Zilong, what should I do?"
Seeing Lü Zhi's panic, Tang Yu smiled.
He truly hadn't expected that Empress Lü, who was historically infamous for her poisonous ways and was one of the most powerful figures in the early Western Han Dynasty, would be so naive now.
He looked at Fusu and said earnestly.
"Don't worry, Brother Fusu is one of us, and besides, she's already my sister-in-law, so why can't I call her that?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Zhi was taken aback.
Then she threw herself into Tang Yu's arms and said in a shy tone.
"You're mean, you scared me."
Tang Yu also subtly ran his hand over Lü Zhi's body.
Afterwards, the group returned to the reception room in the courtyard.
At this moment, Tang Yu looked at Lü Zhi and asked curiously.
"Do you know the whereabouts of Xiao He and Fan Kuai today?"
"Xiao He and Fan Kuai?"
Lü Zhi repeated it first, then recalled the memories of the two of them in her mind.
"As for Fan Kuai, he went to some of the butcher shops that you, Zilong, had taken over for him, and started contacting pig sellers to buy supplies and open the shops."
Xiao He, on the other hand, spent his time in the library of Xianyang, reading all kinds of books.
Speaking of the library in Xianyang City, it was also Tang Yu who had Ying Zheng open it.
All disciples and talented young people who pass the examination are eligible to borrow books from the library.
However, you don't have the opportunity to take books or other items out of the library.
Soldiers will conduct strict registration of place of origin and body searches.
Even so, the Xianyang City Library is still a sacred place that all readers and cultured people yearn for.
Because it contains not only Confucian cultural knowledge, but also various other Confucian knowledge.
Even books and knowledge that were not found in many other schools of thought can be found here.
After all, how could a mere Hundred Families compare to the vast Qing Empire?
The collection of books from various schools of thought by the Qin state was a piece of cake.
When evening came and Tang Yu saw that the two had not returned, he guessed that they were probably delayed by something.
However, he felt that with their abilities, nothing could go wrong.
Presumably, they had finally gained complete freedom, and this was the first day they hadn't toured Xianyang City with Tang Yu.
The two enjoyed their time in Xianyang and had no more worries.
At this time, Fusu had already gone to a room in the distance to rest.
At this moment, Tang Yu looked at Lü Zhi in front of him and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Are you satisfied with being called 'sister-in-law' this time?"
At this moment, Lü Zhi slowly took off the thin veil covering her body, revealing her delicate pink arms, and gently hugged Tang Yu's neck.
"What? Just because Liu Bang isn't here, you're acting so recklessly?"
Tang Yu looked at Lü Zhi, who had a charming and alluring expression, and touched her proud breasts before teasing her.
"Even when Liu Bang was here, didn't you and I both fail to restrain ourselves?"
