Chapter 400: Sleeping Flowers
Speechless for a long time, and at this moment, there was a sudden exclamation with joy in front, Liang Cheng and Liang Wu both subconsciously looked up, only to see that among the lotus leaves with green leaves like jade, the green cocoon actually found a lotus canopy, and after gently picking it off, it was handed to Liang Yong. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
This made a certain little tiger very happy.
"Sister, sister, look, Lotus Peng!" ran to Liang Cheng's side with his little short legs, and Liang Yong lifted the lotus Peng in front of Liang Cheng as if offering a treasure.
"Is this for me?" Liang Cheng was surprised.
"Uh-huh, for my sister. ”
Liang Yong nodded vigorously, and the little hand that was still holding the lotus canopy also handed it to Liang Cheng's direction, it was just a simple action, but when it fell under Liang Ming's eyes, it became a beautiful scenery, and the little tiger was the most beautiful existence in this landscape.
"You think everyone is like you, you know how to eat. Liang Cheng gently pinched Liang Yong's little face, "Go over, let Qingzhu help you take out the lotus seeds, and we will go back and let Nian Xiang cook lotus seed porridge and eat it in a while." ”
"Okay!" rubbing Liang Cheng's slender fingertips vigorously, Liang Yong hugged the lotus canopy and happily ran back to the front to find Qingmao.
"Eldest sister, if I have the opportunity, I will try to inquire when Jiang Chao will return to Beijing, and if I have an answer, I will definitely send someone to inform you. And looking at the back of Liang Yong's departure, Liang Yuan suddenly said this.
"Moke. Liang Cheng raised her head and looked at Liang Cheng in surprise.
"Eldest sister, don't worry, I won't be reckless, if I let my grandfather know that I went to inquire about the news of my grandfather, then I won't be able to eat and walk around, this matter can only depend on luck, if there is a chance, then I will definitely help the eldest sister to find out about this matter clearly." Of course, Liang Cheng will not put herself in a dangerous situation, but it is okay to do something within her ability.
“……… Moke, thank you. Liang opened her mouth, but in the end she just spit out such a sentence, and until now, she doesn't know what else to say except "thank you".
"Eldest sister, you're welcome. "In this world, it is not easy for anyone, and it is even more difficult to put yourself in the shoes of others, it is rare to have such an opportunity, and Liang Cheng does not want to turn a blind eye. Besides, she should call her "big sister" anyway.
The fishing boat sings at night, the blue waves are swinging, under the infinite blue of this lotus leaf, gently, a little crisp and childish laughter spreads in the pond, accompanied by the cool summer breeze after blowing through the lotus, everything is peaceful and beautiful.
Liang Wu smiled.
When Liang Yong ran in with the lotus canopy he picked out of nowhere for the umpteenth time, and handed it to Liang Cheng like a treasure, Liang Yong finally couldn't hold back her laughter.

Recently, due to the provocation of Li Wan, the courtier who became the emperor's new favorite, things in Yingchuan have become very complicated.
The materials that should have been prepared by the Ministry of Industry as early as possible, and then sent people to the south gate of Yingchuan City, but also because of Emperor Cheng's hints, so that the urgently needed materials could not leave to reach Yingchuan, so the three of them decided to put pressure on the Ministry of Industry by Concubine Meng after a secret communication and discussion, and then the old man Yu formed a team on his own, and the people they trusted personally escorted these materials to Yingchuan.
As for who this trusted person is, there is no need to say more, naturally it was the characters who appeared in Qin Heshan out of thin air that day, and scared Liang Cheng for a long time - Chu Gu and Xu Zhao.
Among them, Chu Gu needless to say, and Xu Zhao is the cousin of General Xu Xu, and he has been deeply loved by General Xu since he was a child.
This time, these two juniors who are not very popular in Jian'an were selected, and it can be said that it is very suitable to personally escort the materials to Yingchuan for emergency relief.
But after all, you can't hide it.
Not long after Chu Gu and Xu Zhao successfully sent all the construction materials to Yingchuan with lightning speed, Qi Yu and Jiang Chao had already discovered them.
"Did you find it?"
"No, although someone has been sent to search all the restaurants in the city that can stay, they have never found the whereabouts of Chu Gu and Xu Zhao. ”
In Yingchuan City, on the top floor of the most luxurious restaurant, in a huge private room with only two or three figures, a forbidden army guard stood in front of Qi Yu with his head bowed and replied in a deep voice.
"Except for the restaurant. Qi Yu, who was not very satisfied with the answer of the guards of the forbidden army, asked with a cold face: "It seems that the homes of various gentry and rich people, have you all been to investigate?"
"Back to His Royal Highness, the subordinates who can go in to investigate have already sent people into the house to investigate, as for the few who can't investigate at night, the subordinates have also been sending people to closely monitor the periphery, and until now, there is still no figure at all, please forgive your Highness for the incompetence of your subordinates. Speaking of this, the guard of the forbidden army hurriedly knelt down in front of Qi Yu, the head of the army, and did not dare to look at his expression.
"Alright, I see, let's go down. ”
I don't know if Qi Yu is in a good mood now, or if the forbidden guard's attitude of admitting his mistakes is commendable, anyway, unexpectedly, Qi Yu just waved his hand to let him retreat, and nothing else was said, not even a punishment.
"Zichao, did you say that Chu Gu and Xu Zhao went to heaven and earth, and the people of the government searched so hard, but they still didn't find any news at all, do you say it's strange?"
Qi Yu turned his head to look at Jiang Chao, holding the wine in his hand, and said with a smile.
"The intensity of the government's search is not small, but it is all in the dark, no matter how big the intensity is, how big can it be?"
Jiang Chao also held the clear wine in his hand, but unlike Qi Yu's light sip of interest, Jiang Chao just shook them lightly, looked at them, and then let the overflowing mellow wine fall to the ground like that.
"What Zi Chao said is very true, then according to what you said, where will they be now?" Qi Yu asked Jiang Chao casually, as if he was just asking such an ordinary question as what the weather was like today.
"Qinhe Villa. ”
Jiang Chao said expressionlessly, Qi Yu's eyes narrowed suddenly, but then he laughed very quickly, "Zi Chao is really smiling at you." ”
"Am I joking, Your Highness naturally knows that Yingchuan City is not big, small and small, although it has not been able to look for it with great fanfare, but after the guards of the forbidden army brought by His Highness, as well as the official government that can be mobilized, have already turned over Yingchuan, they still haven't been able to find Chu Gu and Xu Zhao, so where are they now, isn't the answer more obvious?"
Jiang Chao's voice was still too clear and cold.
But when they all fell into Qi Yu's ears, it was really annoying, I couldn't wait to cover my ears and not hear the voice that was calm to the bones.
"In Yingchuan City, there is no place that is not under the surveillance of the forbidden army at this time, if there is a place that we can't touch, then I can't think of any other place besides Qin He Villa, I don't know if Your Highness has a different answer?"
Naturally not!
Within Yingchuan, in addition to Qin He Villa, Qi Yu could not find a second one, which was a place that the forbidden army he brought could not reach.
The guards who belong to the Liang family, they are all iron troops who survived with Old Man Liang from the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, not to mention that they are not inferior to the forbidden army, even if they are a little more ugly, they are much better than the forbidden army, it is not impossible.
In front of such a special guard, what benefits can Qi Yu's forbidden army get?
Even before he even had the idea of sending his subordinates out, he had already been wiped out by himself.
If he was caught by such a terrifying being, it would be like finding a fire pit for himself, if he was not 100% sure, then Qi Yu would definitely not be able to go against Old Man Liang. Although he is also touching the tiger's whiskers now, isn't there still a holy decree in front of him, with this high-sounding reason, Qi Yu can still find an excuse to shirk, but if he really fights with Old Man Liang in person, then he has no chance of winning.
"Your Highness can think about it, what should I do now?"
But just when Qi Yu's face was getting worse and worse, Jiang Chao, who still hadn't looked back, suddenly sounded without any emotion, making Qi Yu's brows furrow.
"No, whether Chu Gu and Xu Zhao were in Qinhe Villa, I also used to doubt it, but when they went to see General Liang twice, they all saw that they entered through the gate of Qinhe Villa, and the same was true when they left, besides, you don't know, the people we sent to guard far away outside Qinhe Villa also said that after Chu Gu and Xu Zhao left Qinhe Villa, they never saw them back, how can this be explained?"
"Qinhe Mountain Villa is built against the back of Qinhe Mountain, how complex and precipitous is the terrain of Qinhe Mountain? If the guards of the Liang family have the intention to bring two people in without knowing it, how difficult is it?"
Although this statement is vague, the meaning is very clear, the forbidden army you brought will not be able to look down on the Liang family guards.
Qi Yu paused, then looked at Jiang Chao and laughed.
What should I say about that smile, it was really uncomfortable, so Jiang Chao finally turned his head to look at Qi Yu beside him, "Your Highness, why is this?"
Qi Yu's eyebrows were soothing, "Zichao, I remember that you are very familiar with the people of the Liang family, needless to say about Miss Liang San, your childhood sweetheart, you and Miss Liang don't seem to be strange, yes or no?"
His Highness laughed, but naturally not. "I thought I was going to talk about something, but it turned out to be this.
The mountains and rivers in the peach blossom eyes are still as calm as before, this kind of problem is really a bit trivial for the second son of the Jiang family, who has been ridiculed since he was a child and relied on a woman's skirt relationship to gain a firm foothold in Jian'an.
"Since I met His Royal Highness, His Highness should have known, what kind of strangeness I have with Miss Liang San, if the two of us can be called intimate childhood sweethearts, isn't it a little ridiculous?"
Turning back, Jiang Chao's gaze once again fell to the cup of sleeping flowers in his hand.
Lanling wine tulips, jade bowls with amber light.
But that the master may be drunk, and he will not know where it is.
Raising his head, his slender and slender neck raised a graceful arc, Jiang Chao held the cup, drank the wine in the cup, and the soft tip of his tongue crossed the mellow liquor.
A trace of bitterness flowed into the body bit by bit along with the soft aroma of wine.
Qi Yu watched and laughed from the sidelines, but did not speak, Jiang Chao's cynicism was hidden so deeply, if it wasn't for fate to get along with him for such a long time, then maybe he would be the same as others, and he would never find out.
But now it's different, he knows that in the heart of this seemingly indifferent young man, there is a hidden volcano, as long as there is this volcano, then he is no longer a person he can't control. Qi Yu is not afraid that Jiang Chao's ambition is too big, on the contrary, what he is afraid of is that Jiang Chao really has no desires and no desires, if a person doesn't want anything, then how can you attract him and control him to serve you willingly?
Angry, angry, painful, only the more painful you are, the easier it will be for me to tie you to the same boat.
The night was getting darker and darker, but the howling wind above the drum tower still did not stop, and they blew the flags and hunted, as if they were about to go on an expedition.
……
……
With the continuous heavy rain, the hottest solar term passed quietly, and Liang Cheng's difficult days finally saw the end of the day.
But thanks to this summer, Liang Cheng knew the benefits of lotus, and she originally planned to wait until this winter, when the lotus flowers were defeated, the gardeners would let them clean the lotus when they cleaned the pond, and wait for the next year to return the pond to a quiet place.
But when the summer was finally over, Liang Cheng was already reluctant to give up these lotuses.
And not only Liang Cheng, because even Liang Yong's stay in the lotus pond is getting longer and longer, the carpenters also specially remade a wooden boat for Liang Cheng and Liang Yong, which is used to place Liang Yong's azure glazed small ones that can complete his homework even if he is on the boat.
But of course, Liang Yong fiercely opposed it, but all the right remarks were rejected by Liang Cheng in the end. So now, even if Liang Yong enters the lotus pond in a wooden boat, he can't escape the homework he has to complete.
Just like at this moment, although a certain little tiger followed Liang Cheng into the wooden boat early in the morning, he still had to lie down on a few cases to complete today's homework.
At this time, it is the last bit of sunlight outside the house, and it is the warmest when it falls. The wind, blowing gently, blew the rustle of the leaves of the willows, and gently echoed in the ears, like the clear water of the tinkling dong.
And the peach trees in the middle of summer, now the peach blossoms have long withered, at this time only the dry branches remain, swaying slightly in the orange sun and wind, and it is also in this street full of dry peach trees, a peach tree that is already very old, and life is about to come to an end, the peach tree is full of fog and flowers, as if the peach blossoms are colorful.
