Chapter 30: Dark Sable Qiu
Lu Zhen's illness is actually not strict, in Mei Rui's opinion, it can only be regarded as the mildest kind of illness, there is no fever and no other discomfort, just wait for the pox to disappear.
When Mei Rui said to Lu Zhi that she was lucky, Lu Zhi drank the medicine and said lightly: "This is called a thousand years of scourge." ”
His self-deprecation made Mei Rui a little unhappy, and it was rumored that he coerced Emperor Huai to set up a little emperor in order to control the court situation by himself, but she really saw it, where Lu Zhi is a person with a desire for power, there is a word hanging in his room, "Enter the room Xu Qingfeng, drink only the bright moon", the pen and ink are all lonely and high, often say that the words are like his people, and his indifference can probably be seen between the lines.
Although she didn't understand why he wanted to meddle in the government, but man! There should always be some great deeds, she understands, she can't hear him say this, Mei Rui grinds her teeth and hurts him: "There is another sentence, it is called the thousand-year-old king eighty-thousand-year-old turtle." ”
Lu Zhi was dumbfounded, handed her the medicine bowl that he had drunk, and said with a smile: "Isn't that wronged you to be the eighth king with me?" ”
He was really a laipi, and he would drag her into the water for anything, Mei Rui glanced at him: "The protector is so sharp-toothed, it seems that the illness is really fine, and it is in vain that I worry about the protector." He got up and saluted him, "In that case, then I will go back to your majesty first." ”
"Don't." He originally wanted to raise his hand to hold her, but remembering the appearance of his hand now, he put it down again, and said with a wry smile, "I'm sick in bed now, and I can't even walk a few steps, can you bear to leave me and go?" ”
"I see that the spirit of the protector is very good." She muttered, and the slightly open neckline exposed the cinnabar mole under the collarbone, probably because her self-control was not very good when she was sick, Lu Zhi's eyes sank, and she beckoned to her: "Rui Rui, come here." ”
It was the first time he called her name, which made her blush for no reason, and she walked over uncontrollably, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at it with a smile: "What do the guards command?" ”
He just wanted to look at her, to see that her shy appearance was very fresh, like the fruit of an early summer branch, which could be eaten into the mouth, and he asked her with a smile: "Well, what do you call me?" ”
"Protector ......" He looked at her with a smile, Mei Rui instantly realized, a Shaojin stuck in her throat, she couldn't shout, and finally simply gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, and lowered her voice: "Shaojin." ”
Her voice was so good, like the fresh rain in early spring, it made Lu Zhi's heart itch, and he smiled and called her again: "Call again." ”
"When I was a oriole? What is this called," Mei Rui glanced at him and stood up, "I'll ask the Imperial Doctor if there's anything else to pay attention to, you're still sick, take a good rest." ”
She was full of commands, Lu Zhi had never heard anyone speak to him like this for a long time, but it was very comfortable to listen to, finally someone could put himself in his shoes, he nodded, and lay back again: "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
Mei Rui saw that he was lying down before going out, and the imperial doctor before was standing under the eaves with his hands folded, and when he saw her come out, he only snorted, and then turned his head away.
Mei Rui laughed in her heart, still made a gesture to people, and then wanted to go to find Fu San'er, but when she passed by the imperial doctor, she heard the man say: "What a good person, how can you think of eating against the eunuch?" ”
She stopped her steps and turned her head to look at the man, his eyebrows were very steep, and when she saw Mei Rui looking back at him, he took off the cloth covering his face, and he was really a handsome person, probably because he was young, and he was unruly, and his eyebrows were furrowed: "My name is Su Fang." ”
"Master Su," Mei Rui stood there, the peony in the court blooming very well, and she smiled very kindly, "A good person, why can't they eat together?" ”
Su Fang raised his eyebrows: "I asked you first, and your answer like this is too strong." ”
He didn't fall into her trap, Mei Rui shook her head slowly: "It's Master Su who is arguing, not me." ”
"Really?" Su Fang looked her up and down, a little disdainful, "The woman is shallow, you just look at Lu Zhen's current power, do you know what the fate of a powerful eunuch like him has been in the past dynasties?" In the end, there was no one to collect the corpse, you only saw the end in front of you, but you didn't think about what happened after you, could it be that one day, you will accompany him to die? ”
Mei Rui's eyebrows moved imperceptibly, oh said: "I see, Master Su really has foresight, and the little woman is ashamed of herself." ”
Su Fang softened her and snorted, just thinking about continuing to say something, but listening to her tone, it suddenly became ridiculed: "But forgive the little woman for her shallow knowledge, she only recognizes the micro end in front of her, I only know that one day when he falls down from the height where he is now, his bones will be collected by me for him." ”
Her words were sharp, and every word seemed to be carrying a needle, Su Fang's face turned pale by her refutation, and she raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "Why are you so ignorant!" ”
Mei Rui raised her lips and smiled: "Even if a little girl doesn't know what to do, it has nothing to do with adults!" ”
She smiled with a little bit of Lu Zhen's coldness, and folded her hand to Su: "Visionary Lord Su, please forgive the little girl for retiring first." ”
After saying that, she turned away, Su Fang was so angry that she jumped to her feet, watched her turn the corridor, and then gritted her teeth and turned around and walked into the house.
Lu Zhi heard the footsteps, but his eyes never opened: "What are you doing outside with her?" ”
"Oh,
Lu Zhi opened his eyes and looked at him, and saw Su Fang looking at him with a strange yin and yang, with a little smile in his eyes, but his tone was very indifferent: "When I go to see the county lord of Quyang one day, I will also chat with her casually." ”
"Don't!" Su Fang was anxious when he landed, and glared at Lu Zhen, "Aren't you not opening a pot?" You know that Qu Yang ...... her" The arrogant momentum weakened in an instant, and Su Fang pursed his mouth, "Yes, you know how to bully me." ”
"My life is still in your hands, how dare I bully you."
Su Fang glanced at him and said in a strange voice: "You also know, see if you will take Qu Yang to talk to me in the future." He rolled up his sleeves to diagnose Lu Zhi's pulse, put his three fingers on it and was silent for a while, then took it back, thought about the situation just now, Yile, and said to Lu Zhi: "There are people on the left and right who collect the body for you, what are you afraid of." ”
"Collecting corpses?"
Su Fang was used to talking freely, and when he saw Lu Zhi staring at him, he sighed: "Yes, your Rui Rui said it." He pulled the corners of his mouth to learn Mei Rui's appearance, and told Lu Zhi what he said, and in the end, he couldn't hold it back, and laughed: "I didn't see it, I'm still a heroine among women, admire and admire." ”
Lu Zhi remembered her appearance after being annoyed, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, like a little wolf dog, he hooked the corners of his mouth, and Su Fang looked at him in horror: "Do you even have such a look?" ”
"What look?"
Lu Zhi asked, Su Fang looked like a student, imitated it vividly, and shuddered when he was finished: "God, the way of this world is about to change." ”
"No matter how poor your mouth is, the county lord of Quyang will be even more reluctant to pay attention to you," this sentence alone made Su Fang choke, and Lu Zhi sat on the bed with a faint expression, "Has the reason been found out?" ”
Su Fang's expression was a little more serious, he sat there with his legs crossed, his hand supporting his chin: "This smallpox was first raised in the west of the city, I don't know why it was transmitted into the palace, I guess it was deliberate, and it has nothing to do with the one in Xingqing Palace, you look at the two things that have happened since His Majesty ascended the throne, they didn't make her harmed, and they just avoided her." Take the last funeral day, but the people below clearly saw that the assassin had not drawn her sword, she retreated, what is this, the prophet of the unknown? She has the ability not to be a national teacher, to be a queen mother. ”
Lu Zhi seemed to be pondering something, silently turning the wrench on his finger, Su Fang continued: "And this time, the palace is full of trouble, but Xingqing Palace is calm, as if it has already been dealt with, why is this?" He scoffed, "I don't believe her when I say it has nothing to do with her." Also, you got sick this time inexplicably, isn't it because the tea set has been changed? Although you cleaned up those people in the mansion earlier, who would have thought that there was still one lurking, which made you a big heel. ”
He suddenly wondered, "However, what are you going to do with that person?" ”
Lu Zhi covered his lips and coughed, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was cold: "In order to harm me, he fell ill with me yesterday, and I asked him to strangle his neck and send him back as it was." ”
Su Fang crooked his tongue and made a description of a hanged ghost, and then shuddered: "I'm afraid you've never been like this in front of her, right?" He snorted twice, "That man has a pox all over his body, and he asked you to send it back?" Do you know whose person it is? ”
Lu Zhi lowered his eyes, unable to see the look in his eyes: "I am indeed not like this in front of her, because I don't need it." He has always been only willing to show her his good side, these dark and cold things, she had better not know, listening to Su Fang's later words, Lu Zhi chuckled: "Yes, looking at the middle of the court, except for that one, who else would be so generous and have such a bold decision to kill?" It's really like Emperor Xianzhongwu. ”
Emperor Zhongwu is the father of Emperor Huai, known for his iron and bloody wrists and left his name in the annals of history, Su Fang heard him talk about Emperor Zhongwu, and couldn't help but sigh again: "Are you still resentful of Emperor Zhongwu?" In that case back then, he did listen to the slander of others, but he had already fallen into the ground after all, you are like this, hey," Su Fang scratched his head, feeling that what he said was not quite right, and changed his words gloomily, "Forget it, whatever you want, you can do whatever you want, I know, there is nothing more pleasant than stabbing the enemy." ”
After being silent for a moment, Lu Zhi suddenly laughed, through the veil, Su Fang could see the smile on the corner of his mouth, hearty and wanton, he squinted, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and his voice was colder than ever.
He said, "You are wrong, the matter of slashing the enemy is not as happy as you imagined. ”
