Chapter 46: Never Surname Xuanyuan
Lu Zhiyao went back to the mountain directly, and Liao Wuxian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw her come back like this, and he stopped talking, but he still didn't ask anything.
Lu Zhiyao changed into good clothes and stayed in the mountains for two days before leaving. The three children held hands and watched Lu Zhiyao leave reluctantly. After she was gone, Qingmo turned his head to look at Liao Wuxian beside him and asked, "Is what you said last time true?" ”
Liao Wuxian glanced at him, as if wondering what he was talking about.
"I want to be with my mother." Qingmo looked at Liao Wuxian with some fear, and every word that came out of his mouth was very careful. "As long as I am obedient and practice, will I be able to be with my mother?"
Liao Wuxian smiled and nodded. His smile is rare, I'm afraid even Lu Zhiyao has never seen him like this.
"Then I'll practice with my sister tomorrow." Qingmo said this with his mouth open, and he preferred to go to the attic to sleep with a book in his arms than to practice.
Qingmo was very happy to make this decision Liao Wuxian was very happy, and I have to say that these two children of Lu Zhiyao are really good seedlings for martial arts. Although Qingmo has always been very resistant to learning martial arts with him, he just stood aside and watched when Qinghan was happily comparing, but over time, he will find that he will do everything that Qinghan will do. This made Liao Wuxian very surprised, even more than the surprise brought by Lu Zhiyao's growth.
Lu Zhiyao didn't know what kind of transactions Liao Wuxian had made with the children when he was away. But Qinghan Qingmo did learn from Liao Wuxian under such circumstances. Although the intensity of training was far less than that of Lu Zhiyao at that time, and Liao Wuxian was much more polite to them when Lu Zhiyao was away, they were all children anyway.
Under the scorching sun, the three children have their own things to do. Qingmo Qinghan's tired little face was flushed, and he was sweating profusely, and Liluo also sat aside in a regular manner, helping Liao Wuxian crush the herbs.
Lu Zhiyao would still come back every night, but because Liao Wuxian didn't do anything to a few children, and they didn't say anything to Lu Zhiyao, she didn't find all this, she just felt that the children had lost weight, and she felt very distressed.
Since Lu Zhiyao fell out with Xuanyuan Haotian last time, the two have not met again. And Xuanyuan Haotian didn't give her any more tasks, and even Xuanyuan Junfan didn't bother her anymore. This gave Lu Zhiyao more time to do his own thing.
It's been almost a month since he arrived at the escort team, and Lu Zhiyao has gradually become familiar with everyone here. She never moved the two carts of things she brought back from Charlai, and kept throwing them there. But how many things are in it, she knows it in her heart. With so much jewelry there, it's only natural for someone to be tempted. So when Lu Zhiyao secretly checked the items in the car again and found that they were gone, she was not surprised.
After three days, Lu Zhiyao gathered all the people. She only said one sentence, "I don't need people here who have unclean hands and feet, and only want small gains." ”
Searching one by one, Lu Zhiyao observed the expressions on everyone's faces. Who stole the thing, she wouldn't know? This kind of thing has one and there will be two, and if there is no thing, there will be no second, and what they have done in the places she "can't see", she can see clearly.
The stealers were two young women who had known each other since they joined the convoy. Lu Zhiyao doesn't want to describe them with the words "gathering like things", they are all children of poor families, even if the dream of concubines in his heart is shattered, he still hopes to live a good life in the future, this mood Lu Zhiyao can understand. But the bad thing is that they did it when she needed to make an example of it. In order to achieve the goal, someone has to pay the price, and she can't be blamed.
"Send it to the palace, tell the emperor the truth, whether to do it as a soldier or something else, let the emperor decide."
A cold voice without a trace of emotion came from behind the mask, and everyone watched as the two people were taken away, with sympathy and fear in their eyes. There are so many people, almost all know what is in the car, and almost all of them have crooked thoughts about what is inside.
"In the competition I mentioned with you before, if you can get the first place, everything will be yours." Lu Zhiyao spoke softly and said, "What's in the car, I don't need to say more that you know what you know." Although you don't need it in this mountain, believe me, as long as you have strength, you will be free. We're just a bunch of wretched creatures trapped in a cage, and we have to rely on ourselves to get out. ”
After Lu Zhiyao finished speaking, he walked away, and many people looked at her back and were silent.
Meng Qing followed Lu Zhiyao all the way, and when Lu Zhiyao was looking at her, she couldn't help but whisper: "Why didn't the master say it earlier." ”
"Oh? Intrigued? Lu Zhiyao smiled and stopped to look at her, "It turns out that your motivation is those things." ”
"I'll definitely practice hard!" Meng Qing said with determination, she had been staring at the good things for a long time, but she didn't expect Lu Zhiyao to plan to give them all away......
The two women were sent to Xuanyuan Haotian, and after listening to the ins and outs of the matter, Xuanyuan Haotian looked at them a few times, and said coldly: "Deal with the punishment." ”
The so-called torture is to escort the government or military camp to labor after being sentenced to corporal punishment, and the so-called corporal punishment is to cut off the nose, cut the face and apply ink to the wound to leave marks, which is very light compared to the death penalty, but in a place like the Qing Netherworld, it is still a very heavy punishment for women.
After Lu Zhiyao sent the two away, she didn't think about them anymore, looking forward to going back to see the children after dark, and the sunset was the only thing she looked forward to every day. Lu Zhiyao didn't want to think about what had become outside, but there was some news, even if she didn't want to know about it, someone would still take the initiative to tell her.
Xuanyuan Junfan came, with the emperor's secret order.
The troops of the Charlais Kingdom pressed the border, making it clear that they were preparing for a big battle. Xuanyuan Hao's Heavenly Destiny Lu Zhiyao was ready to leave at any time and rushed to the border with him to meet the enemy.
"When did the emperor look down on me so much." Lu Zhiyao said mockingly, "National affairs, I don't know what a woman is involved in, I don't know what to fight or whatever, and it's in vain to go, and I bother the prince to bring a message to the emperor, so I said that Qi Yao couldn't accept this decree." ”
"You don't know how to fight, and who better than you?" Xuanyuan Junfan smiled helplessly: "Do you think that the emperor will give up if you say this?" Far away, I told you that it is no good to be opposed to the emperor. ”
"I never wanted to be against anyone, you never wanted me to live a good life, what can I do?"
"So I ask you, do you want to marry me? Becoming a member of the Xuanyuan family is not only good for you, but also for your children. ”
"Can't you find a woman?" Lu Zhiyao swept him up and down, how to look at it, how he didn't think he would lack women. "What is it to marry me a woman with several children? Or does the prince think that the good life has been enough, and he wants others to see the jokes to be interesting? ”
"I'm here for your good, this girl, I really don't know good people." Xuanyuan Junfan sighed, "Think about what I said, if your child is surnamed Xuanyuan, no one dares to do anything to them here." ”
"My child will never have the surname Xuanyuan in his life, this is the only thing I can be sure of now. I understand the kindness of the prince. ”
"Don't say it too soon, I'll wait for your reply later." Xuanyuan Junfan smiled strangely, which made Lu Zhiyao have to think about something. "Also, it's not for nothing that the emperor asked you to go over together, the emperor of Xia Lai and Prince Luo are here, don't you want to meet the old man?"
"Lin Yixiang is here too?" Lu Zhiyao automatically ignored what Xuanyuan Junfan said about Lin Yinan, she wanted to kill Lin Yixiang for a long time, but she has not been able to succeed, in the past few years in the Qing Ying Kingdom, his impression of the weight in her heart is getting weaker and weaker, if it weren't for Xuanyuan Haotian a few days ago, she would almost forget that there is such a person as Lin Yixiang alive.
"Why did you react so much to him?" Xuanyuan Junfan teased: "The old love is not over? ”
"Lord Wang, if you are always so open-mouthed, something will really happen." Lu Zhiyao said to him earnestly: "Even if Lin Yixiang comes, I won't go." ”
"I also learned from you to be open-mouthed, in the final analysis, what you are afraid of is only Lin Yinan." Xuanyuan Junfan saw her clearly, "He already knew that you were here, what is there to be afraid of?" ”
"I'm not afraid of him, but of the thousands of innocent people in the country of Charlai." Lu Zhiyao looked at Xuanyuan Junfan with a sad and solemn expression, and said slowly: "I don't have the luxury of hoping to stop this war, but I still hope to do what I can." I can't save them, but I don't want my hands to be stained with their blood again. Maybe my words today will eventually reach the ears of the emperor, but I still have to say that whether it is Xia Yao or Lu Zhiyao, or Qi Yao standing here, he can only be a member of Xia Lai Kingdom in this life. How many of those soldiers were brought out by my father, and how many of them were those who had seen me and knew me, what I couldn't face was not Lin Yinan, but that I couldn't stand in front of them as a traitor and oppose them. There are many ways for the emperor to attack the morale of the army, and I can't do it without it. In any case, I will not go to this battle, even if I threaten my master, the answer I give is the same. ”
"So revenge, do you really not want to revenge?" Xuanyuan Junfan didn't speak for a long time, and then asked, "As far as I know, the demise of the Xia family should be directly related to Lin Yixiang, right?" ”
So even the Queen Mother said that no matter whether she wins or not, her family's revenge must be avenged, in other words, no matter what the situation on the battlefield is, Lin Yixiang must be killed.
"Lin Yichen is alive and well here, what is Lin Yixiang's urgency?" Lu Zhiyao smiled playfully, "And even if I want to kill, I won't come blatantly." ”
"With your words, it's all right."
