Chapter 129: Calculation

"What's this called?! I didn't even have a clear explanation here, and I didn't have time to turn around, and the old man had already closed the coffin and walked away. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info then today's conversation, doesn't it mean that I didn't say anything? ”

Lu Shijie's departure brought calm back to Shanlan Courtyard, and Xu, who had failed to get his wish with the help of Fang Cai's conversation, was sullenly crooked on the chaise longue and fell into deep thought.

Lu Shijie told him that the King of Xiangyang went to the palace to ask for a marriage in order to fulfill Su Yixing, and the Xu family believed it. After all, no one can fake such a big thing. But if it is said that the marriage request can represent that the matter that Princess Xiangyang said about the summer frost and cold damage to her body is nothing, then the Xu family will never believe it.

Princess Xiangyang, as a handkerchief friend who has been with the Xu family for decades, is kind-hearted and upright, and once she tells a lie, her expression and body movements are uncoordinated, and the Xu family knows best. Therefore, recalling all the performances of Princess Xiangyang in the process of talking to her in detail at the beginning, the Xu family, who did not notice the slightest abnormality, can be sure that Xia Shuanghan's body was damaged is definitely a fact.

Therefore, combined with the promises made by Lu Shijie with all his vows, he knew that once Lu Shaoyun returned from the border pass, he was destined to make the Xu family, who had no children in this life, no longer disgust and resentment towards Xia Shuanghan.

At this time, the Xu family, whose feelings for Xia Shuanghan had completely risen to the level of hatred, really regretted why Xia Shuanghan did not die unexpectedly after falling into the glacier.

As for why the king of Xiangyang is willing to ask his son to marry a woman who can't give birth to a child as a daughter-in-law, the Xu family, who doesn't care about this matter, understands it this way: After Su Yixing inherits the throne, his princess and two side concubines will be included in the royal jade plate, so with three legitimate wives, why should he worry about not having a son-in-law?

"But my Tingxuan is different! In the case that he can only have an upright wife, even if he is allowed to raise a child, with a barbarian like Xia Shuanghan as his mother-in-law, where can the child be raised well? So, I can't say anything to let a woman like her delay my precious son's life. ”

Gritting his teeth, the Xu family, who was full of hatred and anger towards Xia Shuanghan in his heart, couldn't help but think of the threat of Xia Shuanghan that Mama Gui had sent back a few days ago while clenching his fists. So, she was already angry, and while she became even more angry and her eyes were split, she also made up her mind to completely destroy Xia Shuanghan.

Xu's current mentality, Xia Shuanghan doesn't know. After all, in her opinion, since she has taken the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, then while the Xu family gets what she wants, it is impossible for Lu Shijie to fight to the end because of Lu Shijie's house arrest and Lu Xiaoqing's majesty.

But the facts that Su Yixing concealed for her consideration at the beginning would have such a big follow-up impact, how could Xia Shuanghan know? Therefore, Xia Shuanghan, who knew incomplete information at this time, shifted most of his attention to rejecting Su Yixing.

If the failure of King Xiangyang's request did make Su Yixing feel surprised, lost and unacceptable at first, then now, he has completely broken free from negative emotions and actively looked forward.

took the initiative to set up a bureau and used insidious means to force Xia Shuanghan to marry him, and Su Yixing decided not to use this method anymore. Because of this, the Xu family, who touched Xia Shuanghan's bottom line, has become the biggest obstacle between Xia Shuanghan and Lu Shaoyun. As long as this obstacle is not resolved, the two of them will not really come together. So he Su Yixing, there is no need to be in a hurry at this stage.

Second, Princess Xiangyang's "sincerity" made Su Yixing make up his mind to change himself. He wanted to get Xia Shuanghan's heart, and he knew very well that now he shouldn't do those things that disgusted her, so as to push her further.

So from now on, unless he has the opportunity to take the initiative to send it to the door, he will decide to follow Xia Shuanghan's preferences, pursue her and impress her with dignity.

After all, didn't Lu Shaoyun fail to meet Xia Shuanghan in some objective conditions? So, let him come! Maybe in the end, Xia Shuanghan gave up Lu Shaoyun because he was disheartened, and turned his head to choose him who was more superior in all aspects?

So in this way, Xia Shuanghan originally expected that "Qingjing", who would come to her after King Xiangyang's request failed, did not come in the end. What she has in her life is Su Yixing, who often visits the boudoir at night and quietly comes to see her.

Since Xia Chaoyang was taken out of the Dingguo Mansion and returned to Xia's house, Xia Shuanghan has been thinking about two things in the recent days.

Needless to say, the first thing is naturally when Lu Shaoyun and Lu Xiaoqing will be able to return to Beijing; The second thing is that Chen Jinglun, who has not woken up so far, is there any doctor who can cure him.

On the evening of March 16, the imperial doctor brought by the eldest prince of the Lu family, who came to apologize, failed to cure Chen Jinglun, and Xia Shuanghan already knew about it. And in the following days, Chen Juntang spent a lot of money to go to Beijing to invite famous doctors, and Xia Shuanghan already knew about it.

Faced with the sin created by his mother, who was the initiator, the eldest son of the Lu family was ashamed and sorry to the extent that it was difficult to add. But no matter how sincere the Lu family's attitude of admitting mistakes and making amends is, it still can't change the dilemma that all the doctors invited are helpless about Chen Jinglun's illness.

In response to the accident in which his son was innocently affected, Chen Juntang was concerned about Chen Jinglun's illness, but he didn't care much about accountability and seeking compensation. After all, if his son can't get better, even if the Dingguo Mansion severely punishes the murderer who directly caused the accident and pays huge compensation, what use can it be?

Facing the little friend who wanted to protect himself at the beginning, but now he is seriously injured in bed, Xia Chaoyang's emotions are irrepressibly low day by day. And on this night, when Xia Shuanghan, who was tossing and turning and unable to sleep, kept thinking about how to untie her brother's heart knot, the slight sound of tiles removing from the roof suddenly startled her and bounced off the bed.

In the dead of night last summer, the sound of tiles removing from the roof could be said to be the sound that Xia Shuanghan was most willing to hear, because it marked that Lu Shaoyun had come to her. But now, when Lu Shaoyun is at the border, this kind of sound suddenly appears on a dark and windy night, but Xia Shuanghan has to think about the worst.

"Could it be that this is the idea that Xu came up with to deal with me? But isn't she grounded now? Could it be that the control of the back house of the prince of Dingguo is so unreliable? ”

Xia Shuanghan, who had countless thoughts flashing in her mind in the blink of an eye, couldn't continue to think about it, because she had already recognized that the person who broke into her boudoir from the roof with a hole in it was actually Su Yixing.

"You're not here to poison me again, are you?" Xia Shuanghan, who knew that his three-legged cat kung fu was not Su Yixing's opponent, grasped the unsheathed dagger in his hand and stuffed it back under the pillow. With a pair of eyes full of vigilance and vigilance, she looked at the people who came into the house and landed, and at this moment, she couldn't guess the intention of Su Yixing's visit.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything bad, just come to see you." Su Yixing, who looked evil and had a smile on his face, said this, Xia Shuanghan didn't believe a word at all.

However, Su Yixing, who had been prepared for the cold reception he might encounter, did not care about Xia Shuanghan's unfriendly attitude. So, he sat down at the round table in the room with a calm expression, and then raised his hand to signal Xia Shuanghan, who was still sitting in the bed tent, to come over and talk to him.

"Don't be so hostile to me, I'm just here to negotiate terms with you today." Su Yixing, who has thoroughly understood the cultural traditions and lifestyle of the Rong people in the past days, made it clear to the heart the fact that he could meet all the hard requirements of Xia Shuanghan for married life, and then, in response to the "price" he provided, the "goods" he asked for were very clear, that is, Xia Shuanghan married him as a concubine.

"......" was slightly surprised by the negotiable way of conversation adopted by the man across the table, thinking that he would come to a forcible and hard-to-pull Xia Shuanghan. But then, believing that it was better to have dialogue on an equal footing than violent coercion, she quickly regained her composure.

"When we first interacted, you didn't have that attitude towards me! The way you're behaving now would make me think there's a huge conspiracy behind you. ”

"If you want me to treat you that way, of course I can be respectful rather than obedient. God knows how aggrieved I am to use this kind of slow way now. ”

Su Yixing, who couldn't help laughing because of Xia Shuanghan's sigh, continued with a light smile: "But I know that if I treat you in the same way as I did in the past, then not only will you not marry me, but you may only die with me. Therefore, in order to get the results I seek, there is nothing wrong with changing the strategy and methods appropriately. ”

Facing the life-saving benefactor who really saved her life, Xia Shuanghan thought that she really didn't need to be nervous about Su Yixing if it was not necessary. After all, if she can sit down and talk calmly, she is greedy for comfort, but she doesn't like to dance with knives and guns.

So in the following conversation, Xia Shuanghan did not let his tone have a strong smell of gunpowder. "I think you should know very well who I have in my heart, so if you continue to waste your energy on me like this, you are just doing useless work."

Regardless of whether she can marry Lu Shaoyun in this life or not, Xia Shuanghan is sure that she will not be with Su Yixing, so getting rid of the rotten peach blossom in front of her and returning her life to a peaceful life is what she wants.

"A marriageable woman can't marry the person she likes, this kind of thing is too common in the Great Xia territory, so if you can't marry Lu Shaoyun, then marrying me is not your best choice?" Having said this, Su Yixing, who knew that it was not suitable to press too hard at this stage, thought that today's time had come and it was time to leave.

So, he brought a famous calligraphy and painting to his liking, and he knew that Xia Shuanghan's useless character was unrelenting, and he left a sentence "Lend it to you for three days, and I will come to pick it up in the evening after three days", and then he went on the roof beam, and the tile left.

Silently holding the calligraphy and painting left by Su Yixing, he didn't know what to do to get rid of his Xia Shuanghan, and sighed slightly: "Ting Xuan, if you don't come back for a day, this matter will not be over for a day!" ”

And Lu Shaoyun, who was in the same land of Shenzhou, was being talked about by Xia Shuanghan at this time, but he didn't know that an opportunity to break him up and Xia Shuanghan was taking the initiative to run on the road to Su Yixing.

In late February, after Lin Xiran left the border and embarked on a journey back to Beijing, Lu Shaoyun, who was busy with official business and private affairs, inevitably fell into a bottleneck in his search for Xia Shuanghan.

Although, a few days later, before Lu Xiaoqing led his entourage to Tongcheng Pass, the permission of the prince brought by the carrier pigeon who arrived first did give Lu Shaoyun some comfort, but the fifty elite soldiers he sent still failed to break the deadlock of Xia Shuang and Han without news.

There is no trace of Xia Shuanghan in the capital, and there is no trace of Xia Shuanghan in the jurisdiction of Tongcheng Pass, facing this predicament that makes people on the verge of despair, Lu Shaoyun deeply realized that he is not far from a complete collapse.

But fortunately, when Lu Shaoyun's nerves were stretched to the limit, Lu Xiaoqing's arrival finally let him know where he should go to find Xia Shuanghan.

On the day Lu Xiaoqing arrived at the border pass, the newly arrived Tongcheng County Guard happened to be about to take a carriage out of the city. At the gate of the city, the county guard, who was Lu Shijie's friend, took the initiative to get out of the carriage and wait after seeing Lu Xiaoqing. So in this way, Lu Shaoyun, who rushed to the city gate to pick up his grandfather, heard about Su Yixing, the acting county guard, through a casual conversation between the two.

"Su Yixing? Waiting for the county warden? After arriving at Tongcheng Pass in November last year, he didn't return to Beijing until February this year? Lu Shaoyun, who finally knew who Xia Shuanghan was rescued by and why he couldn't find her in an instant, his thoughts flickered, and he deduced the cause and effect of the incident in the blink of an eye.

So, after obtaining permission from the county guard, Lu Shaoyun, who took Lu Xiaoqing straight to the county guard office without saying a word, quickly took care of Xia Shuanghan and Xia Shuanghan tried to ask him for help, but finally failed due to Su Yixing's obstruction, and put out the key information he needed to know.

In the face of such an unexpected fact, Lu Xiaoqing, who was originally scheduled to stay in an inn in Tongcheng Pass that night, was a little difficult to accept. After all, in his opinion, even if Su Yixing fell in love with Xia Shuanghan and quietly brought her back to the capital, it would be impossible for him to really get her with a marriage contract.

It's just that halfway through the words, a flying pigeon from the capital completely changed Lu Xiaoqing's mind.

The Queen Mother Yi decreed marriage, and from such news, the Lu family's grandfather and grandson, who instantly understood what Su Yixing was planning, immediately made up their minds to return to Beijing as soon as possible. And the reason why he returned to Beijing as soon as possible instead of returning to Beijing immediately was because Lu Shaoyun's official business had not yet been fully handled.
