Chapter Twenty-Nine: Parting is Imminent
Out of the palace, Wu Weizhong and Li Chu walked side by side, hatefully said: "Actually, these **** and Leader Li have patrolled almost every corner of the city, but I still didn't expect Liu Wenlu to go around from the west of the city!" It looks like we need to strengthen the defenses of the city! ”
"General Wu, I don't think it's necessary to be so comprehensive, the forces are too scattered and not easy to control, and it is not easy to detect a sneak attack. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Chu turned his head to meet his gaze and said seriously, "It should be based on the defense of the city and the defense as a circle, even if someone raids, it is enough to annihilate the future people." ”
Wu Weizhong nodded in surprise, clapped his hands and praised: "Good idea, good idea!" If he Liu Wenlu dares to come, we will catch turtles in an urn! ”
"Humph!"
The two of them were talking about Dixing, and suddenly there was a cold snort from the yin side in their ears, Wu Weizhong and Li Chu turned their heads in astonishment, and saw that it was the fourth prince who passed by with a calm face.
"What I don't like the most is these four princes and Liu Wenlu, neither of them is a fuel-efficient lamp." Wu Weizhong suddenly remembered something, his eyes flashed and said, "I heard from the brothers in the camp that the fourth prince arrested a girl yesterday and secretly told no one. ”
"Female?"
Li Chu had obviously thought of who that woman was, and there was no second person besides Chen Zizhu.
Wu Weizhong waved his hand disappetically and said: "He said that she is a rural village woman at first glance, and the only strange thing is why did the fourth prince secretly hide people, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive?" ”
The two happened to walk in front of the carriage, and Li Chu felt that he couldn't talk about any tricks anymore, so he saluted and said goodbye, and Wu Weizhong didn't leave him, and took the lead in turning over and leaving on the horse.
Li Chu stood in place for a while, and when he reached out and lifted the curtain, he couldn't help but be startled for a while, Jin Yuan was sitting in the carriage looking at the ground expressionlessly.
"Go home."
Li Chu instructed the coachman while getting into the carriage, glanced at Jin Yuan with a straight face, and said, "When did you come?" ”
"Shortly after arriving." Jin Yuan scratched his face and replied.
Li Chu nodded, and asked again, "Is there something going on in the house?" ”
"Nope."
"Hmmm......"
There was silence in the carriage for a long time, and when Jin Yuan was about to say something more, the carriage had already stopped, and Li Chu paused when he lifted the curtain, and said softly: "It's not early, let's have a good rest today, it's not too late to talk about anything later." ”
Before Li Chu jumped out of the carriage and didn't stand firmly, he saw Feng Jiu with red eyes, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Le Xi wants to go back to Zhaozhou, saying that there is a little uncle there, but I ......" Feng Jiu choked up and said with difficulty, "Can you go and persuade her?" She shouldn't have listened to what I said......"
Li Chu raised his hand and said as he walked, staring at it for a while before persuading: "Feng Jiu, since she is not happy here, what reason do you have not to let her go back?" ”
Feng Jiu didn't expect Li Chu to persuade himself in turn, and said a little angrily: "But I don't want Le Xi to go back, she and her little uncle haven't seen each other for many years, we don't know anything about that person's temperament, plus the father is no longer there, will that little uncle still treat Le Xi well?" ”
"Feng Jiu, I don't think you don't know, Le Xi is not happy these days, I rarely see her smile like before, I was still thinking about what to do, and now it seems that going to Zhaozhou is also a good choice." Seeing that Feng Jiu was sad and about to cry, Li Chu patted her shoulder and said, "I believe that Le Xi is not angry, she is going to grow up after all." ”
Feng Jiu was silent for a while, did not speak, walked to the front of Lexi's courtyard and paused suddenly, and said helplessly: "But...... This farewell may be the last look in this life. ”
"You and her life are still very long, there is no need to think about what you have and what you don't have." Li Chu handed the handkerchief to her, "Wipe it, at least don't let Le Xi feel a burden in his heart." ”
Feng Jiu always felt that Li Chu's words sounded a little weird, but he didn't think much about it, took the handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then plucked up the courage to walk into the courtyard.
Le Xi leaned out of the room when he heard the movement, and shouted nongly: "Brother Boxi." ”
Seeing that she didn't mean to speak again, Li Chu pulled Feng Jiu to his side and said, "I heard that you are going back to Zhaozhou, why don't you tell Brother Boxi?" ”
Le Xi glanced at Feng Jiu, turned his gaze to Li Chu's face and said, "Brother Boxi, I just received a letter from my little uncle today, and I plan to tell Brother Boxi tomorrow." ”
"Do you have to go? Big Brother Boxi supports any choice you make, but only if you think it through yourself. Li Chu stared at her gaze tightly, and said in a solemn tone.
Le Xi pursed his lips and thought for a while, raised his eyes and said firmly: "Brother Boxi, I think very clearly, I must go back to Zhaozhou." ”
"When are you leaving?"
"I've packed my things and I'm ready to go." When Le Xi spoke, his eyes couldn't help but drift to Feng Jiu.
This small action of hers obviously did not escape Li Chu's eyes, and Li Chu turned his head to Feng Jiu and said, "You just said that you want to talk to Le Xi, then I won't bother you." ”
"Eh......" Feng Jiu saw that he really turned around and left, and opened his mouth to call, but stopped.
Since Feng Jiu returned to Lifu, her relationship with Le Xi has been estranged, Le Xi refuses to call her sister, and Feng Jiu can't say nagging anymore.
After a pause, Le Xi saw that Feng Jiu had nothing to say, so he was about to turn around and walk into the house with a word: "Then I'll go pack my things first." ”
"Le Xi ......" Feng Jiu stopped her, saw her pause, hesitated for a moment and saw that she had a tendency to lift her feet, and blurted out, "Le Xi!" I'll cook you a bowl of dumplings to eat! ”
Le Xi bit his lip tightly, tried his best not to cry, and took a sharp breath and said, "Next time, cook dumplings for me to eat when we meet next time." ”
When Feng Jiu heard her say this, he lowered his head in disappointment and muttered, "Maybe...... This is our most ......."
Speaking of this, she cut off the words, and smiled reluctantly: "Then you are busy, I will send you tomorrow." ”
Le Xi never turned around, nodded silently, squatted on the ground as soon as the door behind him was closed, and cried quietly.
"Knock knock~"
Le Xi was shocked when he heard the knock on the door, and quickly stopped crying, wiped his tears and asked through the door, "Who?" ”
"Lexi, it's me, I'm Jinyuan."
Le Xi hesitated for a moment, but still opened the door, Jin Yuan saw that her eyes were red, and he knew that she had just cried, and pinched her face distressedly and said, "Silly girl, what are you crying for?" ”
"You and Brother Boxi are the best people who treat me, Lexi will always remember you, and will not forget." Le Xi raised his hand again to wipe his tears, but the tears became more and more wiped.
In fact, Jin Yuan really hoped that she could stay, but Li Chu was right, the situation is not good now, no one can predict the future, leaving her here is only bad and not good, it is better to let her go.
"It's okay, Lexi, if I finish what I have to do in three years, I will definitely come to you, okay?" Jin Yuan said and stretched out his hand to make a gentleman's appointment with her.
Le Xi blinked, didn't want to stretch out his hand, high-fived him, and said, "Then don't forget it......"
"No, a gentleman can't chase a horse!"
