Chapter 68: Missed
Looking at the gradually rising sun, there are three people walking leisurely on the distant mausoleum road on the mountainside, two in front and one in the back, and the two in front are dressed in gorgeous clothes with a vague smile on their faces. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The expressions on the faces of the people standing around the dismount stone were different, and those who knew the inside story turned their heads and sighed, and those who didn't know it also turned their eyes away and avoided it.
The merchant turned his back to Li Ke and looked at the two of them silently for a long time, then turned his head and showed him a seemingly warm smile.
"It's been three years since the first emperor died, His Royal Highness King Wu!" Shang Shang said lightly.
Looking at the gentle smile on the face of the businessman, but his eyes were full of cold chills, Li Ke was a little confused.
He didn't know what kind of friendship had been established between Wu Meiniang and the merchants in the few months at the foot of Jiuzhi Mountain, and this inquiry after three years seemed to the merchants to be obviously insincere.
"Merchant girl! I believe you know a little bit about the past back then, but Li Kecai asked him with a cheeky face, I don't know what the businessman girl means by this? Li Ke, who frowned slightly, was unwilling to give up and looked at the businessman who was obviously refusing.
"The past? What was the past? Shang Shang's face sank, and his voice became cold: "I'm just a Si Le, and it has nothing to do with me no matter how many secrets I had back then, not to mention that after the death of the first emperor, I stayed in Jiuzhi for three years." King Wu! You're looking for the wrong person! ā
Whether it was a businessman back then or a businessman today, he had a pity for Wu Meiniang, who was obviously different from the history books, from beginning to end, not to mention that after that thrilling night, the businessmen had already regarded Wu Meiniang as a true friend.
Now that Li Zhi has made all the arrangements, and Wu Meiniang has accepted the fate of entering the palace again, such an opportunity may never have a second time for the two of them, but at this juncture, King Wu jumped out again!
All the businessmen back then may not have known the joints as Li Zhi, but the look in Concubine Yang's palace made her unforgettable, so obsessive! How can it be said that you will forget? And is Li Ke's current inquiry good or bad for her? No one can say.
"Merchant girl! Li Kefang returned to Chang'an, many things were not clear, and it was not easy to inquire, I just hoped that the girl would tell the truth about the relationship with martial artists in the past! Li Ke stopped the merchant in a little anxious and continued: "If it weren't for the fact that it was really inconvenient, I wouldn't have bothered the girl!" ā
Although the dispute between the two was to lower their voices, the people around them were already somewhat aware, and some looked over from time to time with curiosity and inquiry.
Shang Shang smiled a little at this time, and looked at Li Ke's eyes with a hint of mockery.
What is this? Make it up after the fact? It took three years to remember to ask the woman who almost lost her life for him, don't you think it's too late?
"It's been three years! His Royal Highness King Wu! Don't you think you're asking too late? Coldly pushing Li Ke away, the merchant simply clarified the meaning of his words, and then walked to the entrance of the mausoleum without waiting for Li Ke to react.
Li Zhi and Li Mo are about to come out, she doesn't want to be seen by them with Li Ke, although Li Zhi is not a suspicious person, she doesn't want to make trouble at this time.
Taking a step back, this is not without benefits to Li Ke, at least it will not make Li Zhi disgusted with him, maybe when something happens in Gao Yang in the future, there will be a way to catch him, and it will also save Wu Meiniang from being uncomfortable.
Seeing the merchant leave without looking back, Li Ke opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, he could only pull out a wry smile.
When the first emperor died, he was also deprived of the opportunity to realize his dream, his people were almost completely defeated, and everything in the palace of King Wu was supported by the princess, and Princess Wu was also responsible for connecting the mother concubine to Shudi.
For a long time, he completely closed himself off, ignoring everything in the outside world, and it took nearly a year to almost come to his senses, and at that time his people were already far away in Shu, and they were already beyond the reach of Chang'an.
All of this may only be said to be a creation and a trick, but for Li Ke, it is by no means a reason that can be put on the table to distinguish with others.
Therefore, he could only watch Shang Shang get farther and farther away from him, and he couldn't say a word.
Princess Wu, who was standing a little farther away, watched Shang Shang leave, and after a while, she approached Li Ke, looked at his slightly gloomy face, and said softly: "Lord Wang! If the merchant girl is unwilling to speak, she is afraid that it will be useless to ask again, so it is better to wait until she returns to Chang'an, and the concubine will find an opportunity to inquire for the prince, and women and women are better to talk after all. ā
Even if she didn't want Li Ke to have a relationship with Wu Meiniang in her heart, but seeing Li Ke disappointed, Princess Wu still couldn't bear it, not to mention that Wu Meiniang really helped Li Ke a lot at the beginning, and asked her to cross the river and tear down the bridge now, but she couldn't do it in the end.
"It's good!" Li Ke retracted his gaze and looked at his wife beside him, with a wry smile on his face, he really shouldn't have abandoned Wu Meiniang at the beginning, and he didn't blame others for throwing his face.
"You just take this matter to heart, don't be in a hurry, find a good opportunity to speak again, lest it be unbeautiful if you screw it." patting the back of his wife's hand, Li Ke smiled at her gratefully, and helped her slowly walk towards the car.
After returning to Chang'an, Li Ke also went to Ganye Temple to inquire, but the news he got was unknown, if it weren't for the situation in front of him, he wouldn't be so anxious.
"The concubine understands." Princess Wu smiled and nodded.
As the two people came down from the mausoleum, the crowd gradually dispersed, and each leaned towards their respective carriages and horses, just waiting for the emperor's order to set off.
Since Li Mo insisted on refusing to return to Chang'an with him, Li Zhi no longer insisted on it, and the two made an appointment to meet in Chang'an five days later, so they broke up at the foot of Jiuzhi Mountain.
Li Zhijing took a huge team of people and horses to set off back to Chang'an, and Li Mo took the businessmen to the house where they had lived for three years.
After all, it was a place where he had lived for three years, and every brick and tile in it had the marks left by the two of them, the carved wooden bed, the green gauze tent, and the clothes sewn by the merchant for him, each of which carried the warm memories between the two of them.
Li Da drove a big car to follow behind the two, this time, I was afraid that the two of them would not come back in a short time, and everything left in the house had to be taken away.
Li Mo threw the stirrup off the horse, glanced at the merchant and the merchant, and the two pushed open the courtyard door with a smile and stood in the courtyard where they were about to leave.
The traces of embarrassment after that night have long been cleaned up, and the flat and compact loess exudes the breath of spring, and occasionally one or two green grass that emerges from the head of this loess looks extraordinarily energetic.
"We're leaving!" The merchant looked at the unfinished dried vegetables hanging in front of the eaves of the house in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"yes!" Li Mo caressed the sturdy wooden door frame, his fingers sliding over an abrupt knife mark.
"Look! It was left behind by the Assassin who came out that night. I almost got cut off on the shoulder. Pointing to the knife marks in his hand, Li Mo turned his face to Shang Shangdao.
"You still say! If it weren't for Mei Niang's alertness that day, I'm afraid the two of us would be unable to escape! Shang Shang smiled and said with disgust, although the matter has passed, he can't help but feel palpitations.
Pushing open the door of his house, the merchant opened all the cabinets in the house, took a piece of baggage, packed all the clothes, took away what should be taken away, and wrapped up the rest, and took it back to the servants in the Zhuangzi, maybe the changes could be worn by the children.
Li Mo watched the merchant do it, and he also cleaned up in the house, his clothes were not as many as the merchant, but there were a lot of books, and a lot of bamboo slips, all of which were put in a bamboo box and rested on the carriage that Li Da had rushed over.
There are only three rooms in the house, and there are not too many things, only about half an hour's effort, and all the soft stools of the two of them are all cleaned up.
After closing the courtyard door and coming out, Li Mo and the merchant stood in front of the courtyard gate for a long time, and the two of them looked at the small courtyard and the vegetable field with seedlings in the backyard, and their hearts were full of reluctance.
After all, this is the home where the two have lived for three years, and no matter how simple it is, it is also the root of people's hearts.
"Childe! Girl! Let's go! I'll watch this house for you, when you want to come to live, ask someone to say, you must clean it up early! Li Da looked at the reluctant appearance of the two, scratched his head and persuaded him.
"Let's go!" Li Mo turned over and got on the horse, clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and shouted softly.
"Hmm!" Holding his jujube red horse, the merchant stepped on the stirrup and turned over, and finally took a look at the home where he had lived for three years, then he agreed softly, shook the reins and ran out first.
When they arrived at Zhuangzi, the two dismounted with stirrups and handed over the horses to the servants who took care of the stables, and then went directly into Zhuangzi.
When Li Da came in in in a car, he handed over some unused things and clothes that he didn't wear to the housewife in charge of the inner courtyard, and asked her to give them to the servants, and the merchant and Li Mo returned to their house.
It wasn't until he sat down in his courtyard that Li Mo looked at Shang Shang and said, "When I saw you at the bottom of the mountain, King Wu seemed to have said something to you, and there were many people at that time, so it was inconvenient to ask you." ā
"It's nothing, he just asked me about Wu Meiniang." Stunned for a moment, the merchant said disapprovingly.
She didn't want to tell Li Zhi about this, but she didn't plan to hide it from Li Mo, even if he didn't ask, the merchant would find a time to tell him, but he would also tell him not to tell the emperor.
"Inquire about martial artists?" Li Mo was a little surprised.
At the beginning, Li Ke was defeated, and almost a few days later, he was rushed to the fiefdom by the people laid down by the first emperor, and later it was reported that he was extremely decadent.
Li Mo originally thought that he would no longer have the heart to care about the old people, but he didn't expect that he would ask Wu Meiniang for businessmen?!
"What do you say?" Li Mo looked at Shang Shangdao.
Since Shang Shang didn't mean to hide it from him, Li Ke must have not gotten any news.
He understands Shang Shang's temper very well, if she is a person like Wu Meiniang who really has her blue eyes, how can she think of protecting her, just like the original debate.
"I didn't say anything."
Shang Shang frowned, she had a bad feeling, this matter will not be over, thinking of Li Ke's expression, she said a little mockingly: "It's been three years since I came to find it, what did I do earlier?" Finally, now that everything is calm, what is the matter with him suddenly jumping out? ā
Li Mo was stunned by the displeasure of the merchants, and then laughed: "Hahaha! Merchant, merchant! You're really short-sighted! If Zhiru knows that you are facing him like this, I am afraid that I will laugh! ā
"It was meant to be!" Shang Shang pursed his lips and rolled his eyes dissatisfied.
"Some people, if they miss it, they miss it, and they can't catch it back even if they regret it!" (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
