Chapter 48: Chapter 36 of the Hui Dynasty
On the ancient road of yellow dust, dust is flying, and the cars are drumming and flying. Zhou Rushui and his party galloped all the way, and it was not until sixty miles away from Yedu that the carriage slowed down and headed for the nearest post station.
Inside the car, Su Ying was still in shock, she had not stopped chattering since she was led into the carriage by Zhou Rushuiqiang, and was still persuading, "Female monarch, how can you say that you will go to the palace when you go to the palace? Also, you still have to go to the Langya Wangfu to learn characters with San Lang! Just leave without explanation, how will Langya Wang San feel?" After that, she was still persuading, "Nujun, it's still too late to go back to the city now, let's go back." โ
At first, Zhou Rushui also explained, she said: "Could it be that I sneaked out of the city, and I still have to stand on the city tower with great fanfare and say goodbye to others one by one?
But Shuying is good at everything, but he attaches too much importance to etiquette, and sometimes he is slow to open his mind. Later, Zhou Rushui didn't bother to explain, the sister-in-law leaned against the wall of the car for a long time, taking her words as a deaf ear, and from time to time feeding two pieces of dried apricots to her own little mouth, letting her talk until her mouth was dry.
Zhou Rushui was used to listening to Shuying's chatter, and he could endure it, but Jiong Qi, who was driving a car in disguise, couldn't bear it, seeing that the post station was close in front of him, he simply stopped the horse, turned his head and shouted into the car: "The front is the post station, if you don't want to expose your identity, if you have anything to say, finish talking before leaving!"
His words were fierce and even a little fierce, and he stopped talking when he was on the board. She looked at Zhou Rushui in disbelief, turned around and glared at Jiong Qi, and shouted, "What are you, how can you talk to your master like this!"
Although Su Ying is fierce, Jiong Qi is even more indifferent and arrogant. He snorted coldly, smiled sarcastically, and didn't bother to take care of Shuying at all, that posture was very unruly, making Shuying stomp his feet angrily. For a while, the two competed against each other, and there was quite a bit of a posture of not giving in to each other.
Out of this long way, on the bright side, Zhou Rushui took the two of them out. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, since her brother handed her the green dragon sigil, she knew that this would be the case!
In the past, the prince Luohe had eighteen iron guards, known as the Left Guard. These eighteen iron guards, who grew up with the prince Luo He since childhood, have excellent martial arts, can block a hundred with one, and are all iron men who have been born and died on the battlefield, which can be described as prestigious. After the death of the crown prince Luo He, Gongzi Zhan tried in vain to command the eighteen iron guards, but fortunately, Empress Lou used a trick to keep the Qinglong rune seal.
But though, the one who gets the blue dragon rune seal is the left as the military master. But what about the knowledge of the seal? If the soldiers die for their confidants, if they are not convinced, they are superb in martial arts and regard themselves as extraordinary, how can they be willing to serve the work of dogs and horses lightly? In the past, they obeyed the orders of the crown prince, first, because of the friendship of Jinlan, and second, because of the heroic martial arts of the eldest brother, so they were naturally convinced. Later, the eldest brother died in battle, and although the Left Guard was held in the hands of her mother, she did not obey the discipline very much, and the queen mother was unwilling to force them, so they all went home to rest.
Now, her brother gave her the green dragon talisman, she knows that this is precious, and she also knows that this is a hot potato. After all, these elite sons, even her mother is a little helpless, not to mention that she is still a sister-in-law, and they disdain her for granted.
But what if she is not convinced? Now, the Qinglong sigil is hers, and in the future, this Left Guard must also listen to her. Even if they don't accept it, she will always have a way to convince them.
Thinking about it, Zhou Rushui pulled up her bright red lips slightly, and looked at Jiong Qi who was full of dissatisfaction with a pair of beautiful eyes clearly and fearlessly, and said softly, pun intended: "He is indeed not a thing." Saying that, under Jiongqi's gaze, she stared at him quietly, casually threw out the small and delicate Qinglong rune from her purse, shook the colored thread tether on her head, and said lazily: "A-Ying, you can hear clearly, he is not an ordinary person, he is the commander of the left guard, Jiongqi." Of course, he also has another identity, Yiyang Geng's Qilang, Geng Xiao. โ
This sounded like that, but when he heard the lazy tone again, he seemed to be making a sarcastic remark, Jiong Qi's face twitched, and he saw that the green dragon rune in Zhou Rushui's hand was like a snake being beaten three inches, and he lowered his eyes stupidly.
On the second day, the fog dissipated, the sun began to dew, and countless vehicles slowly drove out of the post station.
Everyone walked all the way to the depths of the mountains and forests, and saw that the mountains were barren, white vines, and there were few people. After a while, the cars and horses on the same road who did not know each other consciously formed a column.
Zhou Rushui, the first to open the road is a small train of horses from the Lingbei clan. The Lingbei clan is not a prestigious clan, but the person in the car is the sister-in-law of the Lingbei clan, Fang Shilang Fang Li. Seeing that there was no bigger one among the crowd, the most faceful Fang Li Ben drove at the forefront.
Immediately behind the carriage of Fangfu was a small team of people from Peiyu Zhang's family, carrying Zhang Yan, the third-room concubine of the Zhang family, and Zhang Li, the six-room concubine. Further back, there was a carriage of Fang Yang Geng's family, carrying Geng Xiu, the daughter of the Geng family's sixth room.
Seeing the Geng clan emblem on Geng Xiu's car, Zhou Rushui glanced at Jiong Qi quietly, and sure enough, Jiong Qi's eyelashes trembled, and the complicated color in his eyes flashed. Seeing this, Zhou Rushui's apricot eyes narrowed slightly, and she casually lowered her eyes and stroked her dress, with a faint hint of cunning in her eyes.
There are no tigers in the mountains, the monkey is the king, and the team of sparse Lala is called the leader of these three families, but Zhou Rushui does not feel strange at all. It's just that after careful calculation, Geng Xiu should be Jiongqi's distant cousin. The dignified Fang Yang Geng's concubine has to be ranked behind the concubine and concubine of the Pei Yu Zhang clan, which is really ironic! I expected that seeing this scene, her rebellious guard would not feel very good in her heart. If this is the case, she can be counted as effortless, and it is so easy to look at Jiong Qi's weakness. And this person's weakness is the same as hers, a fallen family.
Thinking of this, Zhou Rushui couldn't laugh anymore, and the teasing turned in his heart, and finally became a sigh.
After half a day of driving, everyone in the car was a little bored. Later, I don't know which sister-in-law started the head, lifted the curtain of the car and said a few words to the left and right. Before long, a group of Langjun sisters-in-law lifted the car curtain and chatted freely. For a while, the horses' hooves rumbled, the words and smiles were smiling, and in the gusts of fragrant wind, this column of people and horses temporarily gathered together did not seem to be in a hurry, but as if they were stepping into spring.
Zhou Rushui was willing to walk with them in order to hide her whereabouts, but before noon, she saw that everyone was hiding in the car and silent, she was very comfortable, and she simply thought that she could be so quiet and stable along the way. But she didn't want to, she was too happy!
Listening to the other end, another sister-in-law shouted at Zhou Rushui's side, and the sister-in-law pulled her throat and asked her directly: "Ru sister-in-law, what do you do at home?"
As the saying goes, the words are shallow and deep, and the gentleman is precautioned. The sister-in-law's question was too straightforward and explicit, and now all the cars have lifted the curtains, and only Zhou Rushui's frame is still tightly closed, so everyone else can't help but look at this end.
Rao is Zhou Rushui has always thought that it is rare to talk like a dream, and now when he meets this sister-in-law who is ignorant but does not forgive, he can't help but smack his tongue. She flattened her mouth at Shuying helplessly, knowing that it would be ugly to pretend to be deaf and dumb again, so she reluctantly pointed to the gauze hat on the side and taught Shuying to put it on her.
But at this time, Su Yingcai pulled up her long black hair for her, and outside, she heard a sister-in-law sneering and ridiculing: "How can there be a surname Ru in the family? A few years ago, the Lu family fell, and the Ru family also fell with the tree. Today's Rushi is just a broken household. โ
The sharp voice made Zhou Rushui frown uncomfortably, she looked at Su Ying suspiciously, stopped her movements, and asked in a low voice: "What is the broken settlement?"
But before Shuying could speak, the discussion outside was endless. Another sister-in-law joined in the fun and said, "Really, really?" The joy was overjoyed, as if she had finally found someone worse than her!
Not long after, another male voice added: "Indeed, as soon as the Lu family falls, the Ru family has no one to support it, and it will naturally become a broken household!"
Hearing this, Shu Ying also frowned, she stopped her movements and knelt beside Zhou Rushui. When I heard these three words, I thought of my unbearable life experience, and my heart was twisted, and my eyes unconsciously swelled with sadness.
At last week's puzzled and concerned gaze, Su Ying was stunned, and after a while, he slowly explained according to his memory: "They seem to be the prodigy of the Lu clan more than ten years ago! Since his debut, the reputation of the Lu family, which was originally a middle-class scholar, has been increasing. With the rise of the Lu family, the mother family of Lang here has also been repeatedly benefited. But alas, wealth and fame came with him and went with him. Seven years ago, with his untimely death, the Lu clan gradually declined, and the Naru clan was even more hung in the Shi clan. โ
Her voice was low, and the chatter outside grew hotter. Those sisters-in-law were quite reluctant, first stepped on the now down-and-out Rushi, turned a corner, and stepped on Zhou Rushui. Just listen to humanity:
"No wonder I saw that sister-in-law's veil being blown up earlier, and her face turned yellow!"
"A sister-in-law has a pale face? What a pity God! Is the Ru family so poor?"
There was even a sister-in-law who snickered: "Yes, yes, no wonder Fang Jiaerlang and Zhang Jiaerlang haven't looked at her!"
At that time, people liked to send concubines to each other, and the concubines in the clan were all good gifts. Therefore, even if they are not treated by the master mother, they are not favored by the father. On weekdays, it will not be shortened. But even the daughters who can do transactions are raised with yellow faces, and you can see the difference in their family background.
"Is your face yellow? That's ugly! It's an ugly girl who has a broken family?"
"Hehe, are you going to Pingchuan like this?"
"What a leprosy โกโก want to eat swan meat?"
"I wonder what she looks like and embarrassed!"
"Don't look at it, save your eyes!"
