Chapter 152: The Golden Year of Chang'an (11)
Because of Zheng Guanying's sudden fainting, the driver of the car was worried all the way, anxious for fear of bumps, slow down for fear of delay, and marched in this sincere fear.
Zheng Guanyi called a few times in the car, and pinched her person twice in a hurry, plus the carriage shook a few times, Zheng Guanying relieved herself and woke up leisurely.
"Shadow Girl?" Seeing her wake up, Zheng Guanyi was slightly relieved, "Is there anything wrong with her body?" ”
Zheng Guanying sat up against the wall of the car, did not answer or move, looked at her sister in a daze, after a long time, she exhaled deeply, and saw that there were no maids in the car, only her two sisters, she lowered her voice and looked directly at Zheng Guanyi, "Sister, you tell me a thorough word, this time I came to Jinyang, although it is the meaning of completion, but in my heart, is my sister really here for those properties of the Du family?" ”
Zheng Guanyi suddenly stammered, "...... Naturally, it is for the sake of wealth. ”
"There are no outsiders here, why should my sister lie to me?" Zheng Guanying's eyes were filled with tears, and she begged in a mournful voice, "Sister said this, teach me how to believe?" You and I are the sisters of the same mother, the temperament of my sister, do I not know? It is common sense that family property and wealth are tempting people's hearts, but it is not my sister's style to move people's lives with murderous thoughts. ”
"Shadow Girl, you...... Is it to teach Gu Qiniang to bluff and be confused? Zheng Guanyi was powerless to refute, and vaguely wanted to push the past.
As the carriage slowed down, the coachman knocked twice on the wall and asked them to get off. Zheng Guanyi bluffed, and regardless of Ying Niang's situation, he got out of the car and went to the small courtyard where she was temporarily staying.
Zheng Guanying's maid stepped forward to help, but she threw her hand away. Returned to her inner courtyard, although the maid was worried that she had fainted, and planned to help her back to the house to rest, but when she saw her angry, she didn't dare to say much, so she had to follow behind Zheng Guanyi with her vague steps.
"I told you everything that should be said, you insist on not believing it, what can I do?" Zheng Guan advised her to follow her into the house, and couldn't help but be upset and anxious. Walk back and forth in the house.
Zheng Guanying closed the door quietly. After a long time, he said categorically, "If you don't tell me the truth, then I don't think I will allow you to use the dead soldiers you have built." Not even one. ”
Hear the word "dead man". Zheng Guan stopped in his tracks. Shaking his head in disbelief, he sat down on the brocade cushion with his elbows resting on the desk. Holding his head in his hands and covering his ears, he suppressed his voice and roared, "Why do you have to work so hard? Li Jiancheng persecuted me, you are my own sister, do you want to force me to have no way out? One sentence expressed the grievances and sourness that she had hidden deep in her heart, and finally she couldn't bear it anymore and cried bitterly.
Zheng Guanying sat down opposite her in amazement, patting her on the back, and only waiting for her to cry before asking in detail.
"Have you ever remembered that in the Xingyang clan, our cousin is the one with the most outstanding appearance." Zheng Guanyi cried for a while, gradually stopped sobbing, sniffed, and slowly poured.
"Cousin?" Zheng Guanying's eyebrows twitched, and he guessed a few points in his heart. When Yi Niang was not out of the cabinet, the two were already in love, and the serious lady who came out of the concubine would not be allowed to give to the cousin, but the cousin still had a little talent, and after Yi Niang and the eldest man of the Du Ling Du family got engaged to the marriage contract, he actually resigned from his parents and went alone. They were close sisters, and they talked about everything, so she knew these things.
Zheng Guanyi's eyes welled up with tears again, and he nodded with tears, "Cousin is now, now, it is your husband's dead man." I don't know how he learned about this relationship, and he took advantage of his cousin to blackmail me. said that if I made Gu Qiniang uncomfortable, my cousin would be at ease, Gu Qiniang lost his life, and my cousin saved his life. ”
Zheng Guanying was shocked unconscious, Li Jiancheng instructed her to bring her sister to Jinyang, she only said that she wanted to find Gu Qi Niang's bad luck, but she never expected that there were these entanglements behind her, if she knew in advance, she would not let her sister come if she tried her best.
"Yi Niang, don't do anything foolish." Zheng Guanying was at a loss, and his eyes were red in a panic, "How can you do the murder and murder thing." Not to mention that Duke knew what would happen, just that Gu Qi Niang, you have also seen it yourself, a Rakshasa like character, how can you be her opponent. ”
Zheng Guanyi trembled his lips and wept silently.
"Linzi, that Linzi ......" Zheng Guanying's voice was full of tremors, "Two years ago, she only led fifty or sixty men and horses, burned the fleeing thieves, and executed the remnants of the rebels, which was her handiwork. Almost all the people we brought with us today have become corpses, you look at her, the weak willow is like the wind, but the heart is like iron and stone, such a woman, the most terrifying, how many lives do you have, you want to murder her? ”
"Don't say it again, don't worry about it." Zheng Guanyi swallowed a few times, as if he wanted to swallow all his tears, "If Gu Qiniang doesn't die, even if her cousin dies, there must be a loss." Now that she Gu Qiniang is not a serious Du family, her cousin ......" She wiped the tears on her cheeks, and her voice became decisive, "No matter what, I can't abandon my cousin." ”
……
Mu Qing returned to the house, barely having the strength to walk up the stone steps in front of the main house. First of all, the prisoners of Shibi Khan and Liu Wuzhou, Fang slackened a little, and was suddenly intercepted, and the urgency of the situation was continuous, and at this time, her mind was already numb, and only the last perception was left, which was sleepiness.
She didn't even have time to change her clothes, which had been sweaty and dried several times, so she fell asleep on the bed. Ah Liu went to the back kitchen for a turn, quickly cooked a bowl of soup cakes and brought them, and when she entered the house, she saw that she was already asleep in the inner room, so she had to put down the soup cakes and half-prop up the pane of the inner room, so as to spread out some of the stuffiness, and let the cool breeze of early autumn blow into the house.
"All day long, he did not eat or sleep, nor did he change his clothes." Ah Liu shook his head and sighed, and Wu picked up the soup cake and left the room.
This sleep is the most peaceful sleep since Du Ruhui left. She had always dreamed a lot, and she hadn't slept soundly like this for a long time, and even the rapid knocking on the door when Ada came back didn't alarm her.
At dusk, Ada rushed back to the house, slammed the door, and shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door, "Lady! Ah Liu dragged him over, looking up and down to see if there was any damage on his body, and on the other hand, he was broken and resentful. What are you shouting, Qi Niang is asleep. You don't know what happened today, thinking about it makes people frightened, Doctor Zhao told her not to teach Qi Niang to work hard before leaving, but she worked hard again......"
"It's only two days." Ada stomped his feet in a hurry, stretched his neck to look at the main house, "Li Gong only gives two days, if Qi Niang can't make the Turkic soldiers retreat within two days, Li Gong will withdraw his troops back to the city." ”
Ah Liu slapped him lightly, "You often complain about my impatience." Look at yourself like that. Why didn't you hear of it when you went into the city? The Turks had already retreated. ”
Ada suddenly stopped all his movements and stood on the ground, he had always been deaf and clear-sighted, but now he had to doubt his ears. Aliu then told him about the ups and downs of the day. Hearing it, he shuddered. Stunned. It took a long time to react. Tengdi jumped up and went to write a note to release the flying slave to report the news.
The next morning, before dawn, Mu Qing was struggling with a misty fog-like monster in his dream. Zhengjue was stuck in his throat and couldn't breathe, so he was awakened by a neighing of horses in the courtyard. She sat up and gasped a few times, steadied her heartbeat, and felt the smell of sweat all over her body. Looking out again, because the sky was dim, it didn't seem real, and someone seemed to be talking in the courtyard, she suddenly woke up seven or eight minutes, and pushed the door out of the house, "But Ada is back?" ”
The night lights in the courtyard have all been extinguished, and the faint light reflects a vague outline, and when I heard the question, the outline stopped shaking, and hesitated to speak, "I returned yesterday, and now I am about to rush to report again." ”
"Why did Qi Niang get up so early?" Aliu's voice came out of the side room.
Mu Qing was silent for a while, and said suddenly: "The matter of reporting the news can be handed over to the people of the Taishou Mansion, and in the near future, or there may be other important matters, you should not leave the city." ”
Ada let out a "hey", remembering what Ah Liu said last night, it is estimated that it is to prevent the Zheng sisters from making trouble.
……
Fei Nu is already an old pigeon, through Ada for many years of domestication, in the rain at night can know the way to send letters, but I am afraid that I will encounter a bird of prey halfway, so I do not fly often at night, and therefore, after releasing it, I need to send someone to report it.
This time, the flying slave had good luck, he flew all the way and was not chased by birds of prey, the road was a little far, it was older, and when it fell into Du Ruhui's hands, it was so tired that it could not stand steadily.
Everyone was waiting for news in the big tent, and at this moment, they leaned over one by one, stretched their necks, and focused several eyes on the paper tube in Du Ruhui's hand.
He steadied his hand, unfolded the paper tube and glanced at it, an unexpected smile appeared on his face, and he handed the note to Tang Guogong and said lightly: "Jinyang's predicament has been solved." ”
Tang Guogong took the note, read it word by word, and his heart was also wide, nodded and high-fived and laughed: "Excellent." Tomorrow, the person who will deliver the letter will come to inspect the report, and then he can leave the camp and set off. As he spoke, he turned his face to Du Ruhui and smiled meaningfully, "It's a pity that Qi Niang was not born with the body of a man, if she is also a son who can make contributions, with her strategy and courage, she will never succumb to you, if there is another decisive means to Keming, wouldn't my Li family be like a tiger?" ”
"Gong Li has a good reputation." Du Ruhui's heart moved, and he sighed secretly, this Tang Guogong couldn't rub sand in his eyes. At present, it is clear that the camps have been divided, and Da Lang and Erlang each lead one, but I am afraid that Li Gong has also gained insight into his involvement with Erlang, and if there is really a day when he is honored, he may not be able to tolerate him.
Li Jiancheng and Pei Lin chuckled a few times with everyone, because everyone was happy, and no one mentioned the previous gambling game and slapped their faces, and the two of them were not too embarrassed.
After talking and discussing for a while, the people in the big tent dispersed one by one, and Du Ruhui walked to the tent alone in the moonlight, and suddenly a call came from behind him, "Brother Du." ”
Du Ruhui stopped and turned around, but saw Li Jiancheng smiling a few steps behind, stepped forward and said: "Brother Du and Qi Niang's work has been added today, which is really enviable." ”
Du Ruhui also returned the favor with a smile indifferently and did not answer.
Li Jiancheng took two steps closer, his smile was still the same, but his eyes were a little cold, and he said slowly: "Qi Niang is so capable, no one can help her in the future, Brother Du can plan before the battle with peace of mind." ”
Du Ruhui laughed out loud, "Her reputation is not very good, how can anyone provoke her without knowing whether she is alive or dead?" Da Lang is too worried? ”
The two looked at each other and laughed, each chose a way to return to the account, and never looked back. (To be continued......) R1292
