Chapter 17: Let's go slowly
Fu San'er pushed the door in, and Lu Zhi was discussing with Shaoqing of Taichang Temple. Taichang Temple Shaoqing Qiao Yuzhi, Xuanhe nine years of Tanhualang, that year can be described as a high-spirited horse Chang'an flower. He is a little older, and now he is a year old, and he is also alone, probably a cynical figure, leaving behind the so-called clear stream of the DPRK and China, and preferring to mix with the eunuch Lu Zhi in the eyes of others, according to Qiao Yuzhi's own words, he feels that he smells like the protector.
Thinking of this, Fu San'er couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly, his family's guards were so clean, how could it stink, he looked at Qiao Yuzhi with disdain and smiled at him: "Father-in-law Xiaofu, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you lately?" ”
How could such a frivolous person become close friends with his own protectors, Fu San'er couldn't understand it, so he ignored Qiao Yuzhi's words and saluted Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi leaned his elbows on both sides of the circle chair and looked at him: "What's the matter?" ”
"Aunt Mei Rui asked the villain to bring you the medicine." Fu San'er took out the bottle of medicine and handed it over, the blue and white porcelain vase, like the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, Lu Zhi took the porcelain vase, pinched it in his hand and checked it, his heavy eyes didn't know what he was thinking, Qiao Yuzhi was afraid that the world would not mess up and spoke on the side: "Mei Rui? Is that the aunt who was brought up by His Majesty some time ago? ”
Lu Zhi glanced at him lightly: "You even know this?" ”
Qiao Yu's year is close but unabated, a pair of peach blossom eyes narrowed, and he smiled ill-intentionedly: "Ah, I heard that there is a graceful royal front around Xiao Majesty Xià a long time ago, and I have been thinking about seeing its beauty but can't, and now it's just right, I don't know where this aunt is, but I would like to watch the wind and moon with a certain flower and wine?" ”
It was really superficial, Fu San'er rolled her eyes again, and said in a stiff voice: "I'm afraid that it won't be as Lord Qiao wishes, that aunt has already rested, and she can't enjoy the flowers and cook wine with Lord Qiao to watch the wind and moon." ”
"Hey," Qiao Yuzhi glanced at him in surprise, stroked his upper and lower jaws, and stared at Fu San'er with a smile, "Father-in-law Xiaofu's tone is a little wrong?" ”
Fu San'er was cold, and she felt uncomfortable all over her body: "What does Master Qiao mean by this?" ”
Qiao Yuzhi was about to continue, but was cut off by Lu Zhen: "Okay, you go down first." ”
Fu San'er bowed down to answer yes, and glared at Qiao Yu before leaving.
After he went down, Qiao Yu took a sip of the teacup and said with a smile: "The people around you are used to being bold and bold to you, and this official is also what he can stare at if he wants?" ”
Lu Zhi's face was pale, holding a porcelain bottle in his hand, his physique was already cold, and he couldn't even cover a porcelain bottle, so he changed his hands and put the bottle aside: "I'm going to ask you, what does it mean to always provoke Fu San'er." ”
Qiao Yuzhi belched: "I just think he's funny, where do you want to go?" ”
"I didn't think anywhere, you were a thief."
In front of him, Rao is sharp-toothed Tanhualang can't get any benefits, Qiao Yuzhi is unwilling, and wants to fight back: "You say, you brought someone else's yellow flower girl back to the mansion, what do you want to do?" ”
Lu Zhi didn't even frown, and put his hand on the arm of the chair: "She is waiting for me at Changle Gate, just by the way." ”
is so vague, there must be a ghost in it, Qiao Yuzhi is unrelenting: "Others are waiting for you, you can bring others back by the way?" He stretched out his voice and made a sudden realization, "Changlemen? She is waiting at Changle Gate today, I saw it when I was on duty, and she was really a rare beauty. ”
"You don't go to Changle Gate when you are on duty." Lu Zhi was used to seeing him like this, so he was unmoved, and Qiao Yuzhi didn't give up, "Then what if I have a sudden interest today, I will go to Changle Gate again?" ”
Lu Zhi also sighed lightly, and Ren Qiao didn't say a word about it no matter how stubbornly he stalked. Qiao Yuzhi touched his nose and had to turn the conversation elsewhere: "Have you seen the funeral day?" ”
"See," seeing that he finally got down to business, Lu Zhi also collected some rambling, "It's better to set the day of the funeral earlier, Xianzong stopped the funeral for seven or eight months at that time, and the voice of the crying spirit can be heard every day in the west, and it is very noisy." ”
Qiao Yuzhi laughed at him: "This is the rule above, where can you set it?" Maybe this funeral period will be longer than when Xianzong was there, which will make those palace concubines suffer, and the eyelids will be bruised and swollen all day long. ”
"Why can't I decide this?" Lu Zhi asked lightly, Qiao Yuzhi was stunned for a moment, turned his words in his mouth and chewed again, and looked at him in surprise: "Shaojin, you actually think like this?" ”
Shaojin is Lu Zhen's word, and after Emperor Huai's death, only Qiao Yu called him like this. He drooped his eyelids, he couldn't see the love in his eyes clearly, he just blindly turned his fingers, Qiao Yuzhi was familiar with him, and knew that this was his habit, just like eating fasting and chanting Buddha knocking on wooden fish, when the heart couldn't calm down, it would be relieved.
Qiao Yuzhi heard him say: "When a person dies, he should be buried in the ground, he always stops in the sun, and listens to dispensable people crying in his ears, I am worried about him." There is no need for these, it is better to go out for the funeral earlier, and the diviner and wisher are all found? ”
"I've found it." He has always acted arbitrarily, and Qiao Yuzhi is not that stubborn old man, so he responded according to his wishes, and before he finally left, he asked without giving up: "You really have nothing to do with that little imperial front?" ”
"Seriously." Lu Zhi raised his eyes to look at him, "I won't send you, you can find the way out of the house, remember to go through the back door." ”
"I'm a dignified Taichang Temple Shaoqing, and you let me go through the back door?" Qiao Yuzhi chattered dissatisfiedly, Lu Zhi dusted off his sleeves and walked out, opened the door, and had the meaning of not leaving: "If you don't go through the back door, you will only have to climb over the wall." ”
This vicious tongue made Qiao Shaoqing hate itchy, but he just admired Lu Zhen's appearance, which was better than those old stubborns. Before he left, he also took Lu Zhi's white jade paperweight, saying that it was an embarrassment in the house, so he thought it was Lu Zhi who helped him.
After sending Qiao Yuzhi away, Lu Zhi turned around and continued to pace back to the bookcase, and there was a boxy tea table between the mahogany circle chairs next to each other, and the blue and white porcelain vase was placed on it, quietly, like someone's shadow.
Lu Zhen's footsteps paused, picked up the bottle with his hand, and turned back to his bedroom.
Mei Rui got up early the next day, she has always come to recognize the bed, last night tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, when she was grooming in the mirror, she saw the black green under her eyes, the lack of sleep made her a little angry, Fu San'er came to knock on the door when she pursed her lips and pulled the door open, bluffing Fu San'er a big jump.
"Didn't you sleep well?" Fu San'er asked cautiously, she only hummed, pressed the hair on her sideburns, and stepped out with her legs raised.
Fu San'er followed behind her, and she didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere, she came with a very kind face on weekdays, and she smiled and tepid. said that goodness is like water, she is a character like water, and it is refreshing to look at. But there are times when the water freezes, and the cold winter moon day pierces people with chills in their bones.
got into the carriage and opened the curtain, Lu Zhi was already sitting inside, still looking like a jade carving with his eyes closed, no matter how angry he was when he got up, he had to say hello, Mei Rui was silent: "I've seen the guards." ”
Hearing the sound, Lu Zhi opened her eyes, saw her unhappy face, and asked, "Bachelor, what's wrong?" ”
She was very sleepy, rubbing her eyes, and looking worried: "The slave and maid recognize the bed, and I didn't sleep well last night." ”
"That's mine, it's not."
He neatly took the fault over, Mei Rui felt unhappy, and forced heavy eyelids to look at him: "The slave didn't mean this, she was used to sleeping on the hardwood plank, and the bed on the guard's mansion was too soft, and she didn't sleep well." ”
Oh, there is also such a saying, they all say that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, she is good, and she came on the contrary. Lu Zhi had a smile in his eyes, and followed her words and asked, "The palace maid who shares the room with the bachelor is called Huaizhu, isn't it?" ”
Mei Rui woke up as soon as she heard Huaizhu's name, and she was like a slap in the head, she was intercepted by Lu Zhi in the middle of the road yesterday, and then she completely forgot what Huaizhu said before leaving, according to her temperament, she must be crazy! Mei Rui didn't dare to imagine what Huaizhu would do if she was crazy, her eyebrows were twisted together, Lu Zhi looked at her sad face, and said softly: "Bachelor don't worry, Miss Huaizhu has already sent someone to sue her." ”
Hearing him say this, Mei Rui's heart was relieved first, but suddenly it was so steep that she mentioned it again, Huaizhu was the most unseemly of Lu Zhen, thinking that Lu Zhi harbored evil intentions for her, if she knew, how could she get it!
But Lu Zhi was indeed kind-hearted and thoughtful, and Mei Rui thanked him with some tears in her eyes: "Thank you for the guard." ”
Seeing her expression as if she had done something bad, Lu Zhi was delicate and nine-curved, and after a little thought, he knew the joints, pressed the corners of his lips, and stopped talking.
All the way Mei Rui was in good spirits, and the car drove into the palace gate and was stopped by the majestic Vermilion Branch, how could she allow others to gallop inside, Mei Rui and Lu Zhi got out of the car, still full of worry. Lu Zhi couldn't look at it, so he granted her a day off.
Mei Rui couldn't believe it, and asked again and again, "Is this true?" ”
"I can still call the shots for this little thing," he smiled at the corner of his mouth, "The bachelor didn't sleep well last night, and theoretically speaking, it's mine, so the bachelor should go back and rest." ”
When he said this, there were guards guarding him, and it became a kind of secret and ambiguous meaning in the ears of others, and the two of them got off the car together, and the guards looked at Mei Rui with a strange look.
Mei Rui was not in good spirits, how could she manage so much, she thanked Lu Zhi with a thousand gestures, and ran to the court, seeing that the door of the house was in front of her, she accelerated her steps, and she couldn't wait to get up again from the bed.
But when I opened the door, I saw Huaizhu sitting cross-legged on the bed, with a black face, and the black green in front of her was the same as her, and no one was allowed to enter.
It was too late to quit, Huaizhu had already seen her, and said in a cold voice: "Ruirui, where do you want to go?" ”
