Volume 2 The Sin of Tenderness Chapter 16 ends
The weather was very good today, but Lan Xuanyi's mood was extremely bad, because Chongtong was still alive.
Everyone has fears, and his Lan Xuanyi's fear is the relationship with the main family, if one day, the matter is revealed, then the image he has spent more than ten years shaping will be completely shattered.
In the past few days, he has been worried about the normal affairs of the ferry at the wharf, and he has to run around for the medicine stone event, and he is physically and mentally exhausted, and he has only a little leisure time until this evening.
So, he hurriedly excused himself to go home and rest, and came to his study.
In the eyes of others, this is a model for a generation of officials who still does not forget to deal with official affairs despite the tiredness of the city lord, but only he knows how.
He kept a dozen fish in his study, golden koi and, like himself, koi.
This is the koi fish brought over by the master's family, after special breeding, the body contains formation patterns, daily food must be regular, and specially made, the slightest carelessness will die, there is no room for salvation.
Today, the subordinates were negligent and fed a little more.
So, one of the golden koi in the fish tank died......
He sat on his desk, playing with two stones, probably to meditate.
He took out an ancient book and flipped through it, extremely focused.
Gradually, he got tired, so he fell asleep holding the two stones, and the ancient book fell to the ground, turning a few pages, and in the candlelight, a few words were particularly conspicuous.
Skate on thin ice!
There is a secret room thousands of miles deep underground in the City Lord's Mansion, which has existed since the beginning of the establishment of Qujiang City, and only the City Lord has always known its existence and its function.
Lan Xuanyi appeared on a platform, and then slowly walked down.
In the depths of the secret room, there was an everlasting lamp that emitted a faint light, and a black-robed figure stood straight in front of the ever-bright lamp, and the black-robed robe danced without wind.
Lan Xuanyi slowly walked behind the black-robed man, knelt on his knees, prostrate on the ground, and said respectfully: "Lord." ”
The black-robed man turned around, stretched out his slender fingers and gently lifted the head covered by the black robe, which turned out to be Luo Fengzhi's aunt.
She said expressionlessly, "You'd better give a good reason, or you'll just stay here." ”
Hearing this, Lan Xuanyi's forehead overflowed with a little sweat, but he didn't dare to wipe it, so he could only raise his head slightly and say: "Your Majesty, it is indeed urgent to use koi fish to send a message to the master's family this time......
He looked at her and said word by word: "Heavy pupils, still alive." Now it is in the city lord's mansion of Qujiang City. ”
In an instant, a powerful force emanated from the woman's body, like a peak of ten thousand people pressing on, Lan Xuanyi only felt that there was a strong pressure on his body, and he couldn't move for half a minute, and even trembling became a luxury.
The woman was angry, she clenched her fists, clenched her teeth, and her eyes were filled with endless murderous aura.
She couldn't forget the punch that ran through Luofeng, the punch that shattered half of the mountain, and the mysterious and terrifying heavy pupil, she didn't want to crush that heavy pupil with her own hands all the time.
But I heard that he jumped down the waterfall outside the mountain with the girl in his arms that day, and the downstream of the waterfall was the Qujiang River, so he asked people to secretly search for thousands of miles along the Qujiang River, and they wanted to see people dead and corpses.
However, until now. Now, there is no news, no breath at all.
He was furious, that heavy pupil's life was so hard, it must still be alive, so she couldn't sleep all night.
Now that she has found it, how can she not be excited.
She asked Lan Xuanyi angrily: "Where is he? Why don't you kill him, he knows about the village, if he shakes out one day, I will throw out a few scapegoats at most, and you Lan Xuanyi will definitely die without a place to be buried, don't you understand this?"
Lan Xuanyi hurriedly said: "It's not that his subordinates don't kill, but they can't kill him." That heavy pupil is one who was sent north by Yun County
Some people were fished out of the Qujiang River. ”
"Are those who follow the gentleman?" said the woman indifferently.
"Yes, his subordinates are not Wang Zhi's opponents, and the only people in Qujiang City who can attack Wang Zhi and defeat him are Liu Jinyu, a garrison general under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court. Lan Xuanyi said.
Suddenly, the power of ten thousand people disappeared inexplicably, and the woman took a deep breath and said, "So, can't be killed?"
"That's right, as long as Wang Zhi is there, the double pupil is safe. ”
The woman turned her back, trying to calm her unwillingness, staring at the ever-bright lamp for a long time, Lan Xuanyi also raised her heart, knelt on the ground and trembled.
The woman whispered, "Will he follow him to the Imperial City?"
"I don't know, I think I will. ”
"I don't want to hear any uncertainties and come up with conclusive news tomorrow. ”
"Yes!"
After a while, the woman said, "If he wants to go, if he goes to the imperial city, he will definitely die quietly, if he doesn't go, you can find a way to let him go." ”
Now that she's alive, she's going to do it herself.
"Yes!"
Lan Xuanyi didn't hear the woman's voice again for a long time, so he quietly raised his head, only a black robe was motionless in front of the ever-bright lamp, and the woman had already left.
Seeing this, Lan Xuanyi breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the ground, panting for breath, for a long time, before he walked up to the platform, crushed a talisman, and his figure disappeared into the light.
In the study, Lan Xuanyi opened his eyes, took a deep breath to adjust his emotions, put the stone in the corner of the desk, and bent down to pick up the book, but was attracted by those words and was stunned for a moment.
Skate on thin ice?
Hehe...... It's really walking on thin ice!
He shook his head helplessly, picked up the book and closed it, put it on the bookshelf, asked his subordinates to bring water to wash up, and then pushed the door and prepared to go to Lishuiju.
But when I went out, I thought that there was no legitimate reason to visit my husband at this time, so I went back to sleep directly.
In the early morning of the second day, before the teenagers got up, Zhaoxue got up early and read in the yard.
That's right, it's a book, Wang Zhi gave it, and he needs to have a fuller understanding of the world.
Looking at the wonderful world recorded in the book, he couldn't help but sigh that the people who live at the bottom of the world really have too little understanding of the world.
Those who are called immortals are nothing more than powerful cultivators, and immortals ...... There really is no such existence.
Lan Xuanyi also got up early, visited Mr., and explained his intention after a few words of greeting.
It turned out that the medicinal stone conference in the county town was about to be held in a few days, and he had to transport a batch of elixirs in advance. I can't personally send Mr. north, so I'm here to make amends. However, he said that he would let the deputy lord see him off that day, and someone would inform him at that time, and he would wish him a safe journey on the way to the county seat.
Mr. also understood his difficulty, just waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”
After speaking, Lan Xuanyi retreated.
Passing by Zhao Xue on the way, he stopped and looked at the book "Records of the Thirteen States of the Mainland" that Zhao Xue read
This book was written by a great Confucian in the south of the country who traveled all over the mainland, recording what the great Confucian saw and heard along the way, as well as some customs and interesting facts and mountains and rivers in the thirteen states, which is very popular in the south.
Zhao Xue almost sensed that someone was paying attention to him, glanced at the man, and turned his head away from him.
Lan Xuanyi smiled and said, "Child, do you feel after reading this book?"
He didn't reply.
Lan Xuanyi was not discouraged, and continued: "Let me tell you, in fact, the world is more than this, a person's vision is limited after all, and the real world has to be seen by himself." ”
Zhao Xue was obviously attracted by him, so she looked at him
, suspicion flashed in his eyes.
Lan Xuanyi smiled: "The world is very big, but you can't understand it just by reading books, you need to see it in person, can you understand?"
Zhao Xue nodded as if she didn't understand.
Seeing Zhao Xue nodding, Lan Xuanyi became even more amiable, and he said again: "I am in the land of Cangzhou, and I am afraid that the only place where I can fully understand the world is the Imperial City. ”
After speaking, Lan Xuanyi slowly left with his hands in his hands.
Soon, Zhao Xue found his husband.
"Sir, are you still short of people to bring tea and water along the way?"
"Kid, what do you want to do?"
"The kid wants to go to the Imperial City with his husband, but now he has no one to rely on, it is better to go to the Imperial City to see the prosperous world. ”
"Yes, but Mr. doesn't need a boy who brings tea and water, you can be a friend of those children, and I'm sure they will be happy to join you. You can also find Wang Zhi, who has many friends in some parts of the Imperial City who can be of great help to you. ”
"Mr. Xie. ”
"Go ahead. ”
"The kid quit. ”
(The bar spirit is here again)
Lan Xuanyi hurriedly prepared, and then took countless rare medicinal materials to participate in the medicinal stone festival on behalf of Qujiang City, and at the same time, the large and small chambers of commerce in Qujiang City were also ready to go.
The next day, the deputy city lord personally brought all the people in the city to send off Mr., and even many scholars in Qujiang City who read the books of sages also came, and the scene was not small.
The scholars all wanted to see the true face of the gentleman, but in the end they didn't see him, only a group of children got on the big boat.
The ordinary people and the poor people in the vicinity looked over enviously, and Zhao Xue also looked over, once upon a time he was also one of those people, and now he has come into contact with this world, so that world ...... Maybe it has nothing to do with him.
When I think of this, I can't help but feel emotional.
Nangong Tong walked over and said, "Senior brother said, there are two worlds in this world, I don't understand it very well, but after you, I may ...... I probably know which two worlds they are. ”
Zhao Xue muttered, "They are very close, but they are extremely far away. ”
"Yes, just like Granny Yang and Aunt Wang in Nanshan Village, they never knew that the senior brother who bought vegetables at their vegetable stall every day and borrowed goat's milk was a monk, and their family was only half a cup of tea away from the hillside. "Nangong Passage.
"What are you talking about?" Wen Zheng walked over.
"Nothing. "Zhaoxue Road.
Wang Zhi waved his hand, and the big ship Yang Fan set sail.
The deputy city lord came to those enthusiastic scholars, made a straight face, and said solemnly: "Sir finally asked me to bring you a word. ”
He looked left and right, and said loudly: "Scholars, you should have a backbone." ”
As for how many people can understand this sentence, it is unknown.
They looked towards the big boat, and a red-maned horse grinned down, as if ...... Laugh at them.
......
Somewhere in the distant clouds, the flying boat was already about to reach the boundary of the county town, Lan Xuanyi listened to the news from the deputy city lord, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
He picked up a book and quietly cut out two words.
Soon after, a maid who was cleaning accidentally knocked over the lantern in the flying boat and burned the book......
