Chapter Seventy-Three: Insatiable
Ruo Ao Ziliang, who was supposed to get the news with Ling Yin, didn't know why the herald was a moment late before he spread the news to the main courtyard of the big house, and Ruo Ao Ziliang, who was being served by the maid and was changing clothes and was about to go to bed, raised his arm froze when he heard this, "What did you say?
The person who came knelt on the ground and nodded back, "Yes, Captain Situ was in a car accident on Jinjie and is now dying!"
Even Lu Shi was shocked, and walked down from the bed and asked him, "Is this true? Why did Captain Situ die just two days after he was released from the prison?"
Obviously, he is still uncertain about Situ Nan's life and death.
But those who heard the news immediately thought that he was going to die.
If Ao Ziliang thought of Yue Jiao for the first time, he immediately denied it, and only summoned the housekeeper and asked, "Is the eldest prince back today?"
"The eldest prince came back very early today, and according to the current hour, the young lady should have rested. ”
The housekeeper of the big house said "should" instead of seeing it with his own eyes, he saw Ruo Ao Yuejiao coming back from work in the evening, but he haunted and went out, he didn't know, and asked, "Do you want to pass on the son now?"
"In this way, then there is no need to ......"
Ruo Ziliang's beating heart finally calmed down.
But the next moment, the Lu family stepped forward and stared at him and said, "Butler, after the eldest prince came back, did he go out again halfway?"
"This old slave doesn't know ......"
Being stared at by Lu's perceptive eyes, the housekeeper didn't dare to lie anymore.
Lu Shi smiled when he heard this, "Didn't the master say that Jiao'er was just transferred today, and now Situ Nan has an accident again, I'm afraid that tomorrow there will be a big chaos in the soldiers and horses of the five cities, and he is afraid that even if he moves to the adult's Sima Mansion, he won't feel at ease, so it's better for the adult to go and talk to Jiao'er now......
If Ao Ziliang heard the words and decided to go and see, he immediately ordered someone to dress him again, and followed the Lu family to the Blue Wolf Pavilion.
The night was deep, and when the inside and outside of the Blue Wolf Pavilion heard the movement, they immediately panicked, Xiao Jiang and others hurriedly came out to greet him, and said anxiously with his eyes, "I don't know what the Lord and Mrs. have to say when they visit late at night?"
"Where's Childe?"
Ruo Ao Ziliang looked at her and said.
"The son and the young lady went to bed. ”
Xiao Jiang looked at the room where the lights had long been turned off and said in surprise, I don't know why Lord Sima came in the middle of the night to ask this.
Just as her words fell, the lights went out in the main house, because she heard the sound, Zhou Jinghua put on a cloak and came out, "Father came so late, I don't know what's important?"
"Where's Pepper?"
Ruo Ziliang didn't say anything, just looked into the gate with a deep gaze.
He didn't see Ruo Ao Yuejiao's people.
It is said that usually, if Ao Yuejiao heard that he was coming, he would come out to greet him, but today they stood outside the door for a short time and did not see him.
For some reason, if Ao Ziliang thought of this, there was a night sweat in his palms, and even his heartbeat accelerated a little.
This accident won't have anything to do with Jiao'er......
No, it won't.
"I don't know what my husband is thinking about tonight, I drank a lot of wine alone, and now I am drunk and unconscious, and I am still resting!" Zhou Jinghua looked at the two and hesitated.
Zhou Jinghua had a hesitant look on her face, which seemed to indicate that there were ghosts in it.
If Ao Ziliang heard this, he wanted to rush in immediately to see what was going on, but he retreated at his feet, "Since Jiao'er is drunk, why don't we go back tonight first......"
Lu Shi didn't follow, looking at Ruo Ao Ziliang like this, he hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and walked in, "My lord, I'm here, since Jiao'er is drunk, it means that he has a bad idea about today's transfer, and you, the father, have to unravel him...... Anyway, aren't you all for his good? Think about our young son, and we will have to rely on him as a big brother in the future!"
Ruo Ziliang could only nod with a stiff face.
"This ......"
Zhou Jinghua quickly stepped forward to stop them, looked at them and smiled, "Won't this be too annoying to my father, but for the trivial matter of getting drunk, just have Jinghua here." ”
"It's okay, anyway, we're all here, let's see if Jiao'er is okay...... Only then can we go back with peace of mind, otherwise, we two of us will probably not be able to sleep tonight, and the thought of Situ Duwei's life and death now is worrying......"
Lu Shi said very affectionately, as if he was his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, looking at the dark room with a worried expression.
If Ao Ziliang heard the name of "Situ Nan", he finally made up his mind to go in and find out.
"Okay, father and mother, let me order someone to clean up the house, and you can sit in the outer hall for a while and drink water. Zhou Jinghua saw that they had to go in, so she could only order Xiao Jiang to take someone to clean up first.
Xiao Jiang saluted them, and quickly led the people to the house, as if someone was chasing them, and walked quickly.
Zhou Jinghua affectionately wanted to pull them into the inner hall to sit and drink tea, Lu smiled and waved his hand, how could he let them succeed in this little trick, "Don't bother, let's leave after reading it, right, my lord?"
Ruo Ao Ziliang nodded with a deep face.
The corners of Lu's lips hooked up with a smile, and he led people to follow the door of the inner room opened by Xiao Jiang, and rushed in three steps and two steps, and Zhou Jinghua couldn't stop it.
As soon as the two of them walked into the room, there was a huge smell of alcohol that covered up the other smells, and the bed was so heavy that there was no figure of Yue Jiao on the bed.
"Mother, after all, my husband has already slept......
Zhou Jinghua stepped forward again to stop him.
Lu Shi was even more sure in his heart that they wanted to cover up, so he stepped forward with a more affectionate smile, "It's okay, Jiao'er has seen the big one since he was a child, if he is really uncomfortable, he doesn't need to get up, your father and I just came to take a look." ”
The words fell quickly and Xiao Jiang lifted the bed, only to see Ruo Ao Yuejiao lying on the bed on the bed, covered with a thick quilt, and on his bronzed handsome face, because of drunkenness, there was an abnormal flush attached to it, so all the smiles froze on his face, blue and white.
I don't know if it's angry or how.
smiled awkwardly, "It turns out that Jiao'er is really resting!"
"Where does the mother think her husband has gone? He seems to be unhappy today because of the transfer, saying that he has a very good relationship with those brothers in the Tiger Ben Forbidden Army and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and he is very reluctant. ”
Zhou Jinghua lowered his head and said aggrievedly, "And he has been by the king's side for more than ten years, and he has a deep relationship with the king, so he will be transferred away...... I was always worried that the king would not be able to use the newcomer for a while......"
"It's for the sake of the Father. ”
Ruo Ziliang saw Yue Jiao's frowning and uncomfortable appearance on the bed, and kept shouting "Water, Jinghua ......", turned around and poured a glass of water himself.
Zhou Jinghua took the water smartly, and then picked up the "asleep" Yue Jiao, and after feeding him to drink, he quieted down again, if Ao Ziliang kept watching, the room was full of the smell of wine, and there were wine bottles on the table, it didn't seem to be a fraud at all, and when he thought that this Situ Nan might really be an accident, he felt guilty for a while.
would actually suspect that he raised his eldest son personally.
"Then you should rest early, and go back first for your father!"
"Yes, Jinghua sent her father and mother. ”
Zhou Jinghua sent them all the way back to the main courtyard, and only turned around after doing enough work, on the way back, Xiao Jiang patted his chest when he saw that he was far away, and exclaimed, "Miss, you scared me to death just now!"
Then he asked in a low voice, "Obviously my aunt is not here, why did he come back suddenly!"
"Just when you went out, he came back suddenly!"
Zhou Jinghua glared at this girl who had never been light or heavy, and explained, but she was not afraid, it was all autumn days, and the night was cool, but she was forced to sweat a layer of hot sweat, for fear that Ruo Ao Ziliang would see a flaw.
When I went back to the Blue Wolf Pavilion, I saw that Yue Jiao had woken up, and was sitting on the edge of the bed frowning and wiping the smell on her body, Zhou Jinghua approached and smelled it, and immediately felt nauseous and uncomfortable, "What smell do you have?"
Ruo Ao Yuejiao didn't want to tell her that it was the smell of blood, so she only said coldly, "You did a good job just now." ”
"But where did you go when you suddenly went out at night?Why did the Lu family say that Situ Nan died, could it be related to you?" Zhou Jinghua thought of the Lu family's words just now, and felt like a cat in her heart, and couldn't help asking.
"Men's affairs, I said, you don't need to ask a woman too much. Ruo Ao Yuejiao's voice was cold when she heard this, and a pair of big hands fell on her shoulders, looking at her condescendingly and saying.
Zhou Jinghua nodded.
But I don't know why, looking at him like this like a wolf, I suddenly feel that there seems to be some danger hidden in it.
As soon as she thought of what Cheng Qingqing said to her in the Zhao Mansion during the day today, her heart jumped, and she asked carefully, "Was my father helping you before?"
"Your father?"
If Ao Yuejiao heard this, her eyes were half-squinted and looked at Zhou Jinghua at this time, wearing a lark cloak, thin and small, seeing her anxious expression at this time, a pair of big hands slid from her shoulders to her delicate neck, as if she could pinch it at any time, and the sound of "click" could be heard.
The big hand around her neck tightened, easily suffocating her breath for a moment, and she pounded his iron arm hard.
"Let it go...... Let go, I won't be able to breathe......"
"How could your father help me with a lieutenant?"
Ruo Ao Yuejiao finally let go of his hand, and after realizing it, he snorted and replied, "He is a dignified left disciple, I am just a captain of the forbidden army, but I can't move him!"
When Zhou Jinghua heard this, her heart finally settled down, rubbed her neck, and frowned again, "It's just that what does my father want so much disaster food for?"
She couldn't figure it out about that.
It is only possible to use it as military rations.
Yue Jiao's 50,000 private soldiers, she has seen it with her own eyes, and now Yue Jiao says no, so what does her father want to do with these disaster food.
"Jinghua, in this world, people's hearts will never be satisfied...... So I am, so is thy father...... Keeping to oneself will only become those ants outside, trampled on by others. ”
If Ao Yuejiao rubbed her and was pinched by her jade white thin neck, that cold big hand, Zhou Jinghua only felt shuddered for a moment, and her back was cold, but when she saw him, he shook his index finger at her, "So this doesn't have to be on us." ”
"So what applies to us?"
Zhou Jinghua could only be forced to look up at him in a daze and ask rhetorically.
"Standing at the top, the scenery will be very different. ”
I only heard Ruo Ao Yuejiao say to her, "I control the life and death of others......"
"Trust me, it's not far off!"
"Hmmm......"
At this time, the cool night breeze blew in along the open window, blowing the bright and dark candles in the house, the lights flickered, and several candle lights went out with a "poof", and suddenly sprinkled layers of dark shadows, falling on Ruo Ao Yuejiao's three-dimensional facial features, suddenly he looked like a wolf wandering in the night, darkness was his best disguise, making people indistinguishable, but extremely dangerous, Zhou Jinghua's face suddenly turned white.
……
A large area of dark clouds shrouded the land of Kyushu, divided and merged, it seemed that an unprecedented war was brewing, the Jin State did not come as promised, but the attack on Zheng Guo was half stopped, and at the same time, the news of Yingdu had not been transmitted back for more than half a month.
There are still summer temperatures left in the south, and the weather in the north has already reached late autumn temperatures.
There was only one lamp lit in the tent, and the shadow of the candle was deep, reflecting the back of the man standing in the tent with a hint of depth, and the guards carefully held their breath, not daring to make a sound, and Jiang Liu was also afraid.
Ruo Ao Ziyan, who was far away in the Funiu Mountain Range to ambush the Jin army, suddenly couldn't sleep this night, he was wrapped in black Dahao at this time, his sword eyebrows were deeply furrowed, until late at night, he was still walking around in the tent of the commander of the Chinese army, "Mo Yan and Yuhuang have not heard from him for half a month!"
"You didn't send the secret guard back to investigate!"
"This has never been the case before!"
Qingpu immediately replied, "Childe, I have already sent someone back to Yingdu today!"
"Today?"
"It's been so long for you to arrange. ”
Ruo Ao Ziyan expressed great dissatisfaction with Qingpu.
