Chapter 22: Thunder
The warm sun climbed into the air, the thin morning fog evaporated, and there was a slightly impatient sound of horses' hooves outside the Yefu Gate, and the man in the blue and white robe shouted across the door: "Youqing!" ”
"It's coming." Ye Youqing waited in the lobby, and walked out when he heard the sound, while complaining, "So slow!" If the chess game starts, I'll not finish with you! ”
"Youqing, why are you still here?" When Wei Yuncheng saw Ye Youqing in person, his long eyebrows were furrowed, "It's not ...... today."
"What is it?" Ye Youqing couldn't wait for Wei Yuncheng to swallow and vomit, sent a little servant to lead the horse, and said excitedly: "Show you my purple hooves stepping on the moon, this name is still given by that tricky woman, you didn't expect her to have this ability." ”
Wei Yuncheng couldn't figure out Ye Youqing's preferences these days, and said tentatively: "Tricky woman? It's her big day. ”
"What a big day?" He had heard of it in his childhood. As soon as Wei Yuncheng saw him, he knew that no one had told him about the wedding ceremony.
It seems that Mrs. Ye really hates Lu Zhaojin, and she doesn't even arrange such a big thing for her, "Today is the return of the three dynasties, the bride and the groom will go back to her parents' house with gifts, if the groom is missing," Wei Yuncheng himself showed a wry smile without paying attention: "I'm afraid that I will be ridiculed for a lifetime." ”
It's no wonder that Lian Mei told him about the Nine Palaces chess game, and it turned out that she had set it here.
Ye Youqing was disappointed and thought of Lu Zhaojin's indifferent appearance last night, and couldn't help but snort coldly: "She didn't send anyone to call me, it seems that she is not afraid of ridicule, let's go!" ”
The pace is slow, and my heart is blocked in panic for no reason.
The purple hoof stepping on the moon was brought in, and the white hair on his knee seemed to be bent like white hair in Ye Youqing's eyes, which reminded him of the spring light on Lu Zhaojin's neck last night.
"No, the master said that he would call the shots for her." Ye Youqing didn't say much, but Wei Yuncheng heard it clearly, and burst out laughing.
"Youqing, last time you said that you were in charge of the little monk of Miaofa Temple, but you forced people to eat meat, and I was hungry for three days."
"The person who took the opportunity to deceive the little monk into being grateful to Dade and ate chicken soup and somen noodles is not you?" Ye Youqing retorted with a glare, feeling a little better.
Wei Yuncheng was even more annoyed and scolded: "Then who carried the black cauldron for you in the end?" My father punished me for kneeling in the Buddha hall for three days! ”
Ye Youqing sneered, his cousin has been taking the blame for him since he was a child, "Who let everyone know that you are wilted." ”
"You! Can you hear that Diao...... What did the princess say when she left? Ye Youqing saw that Wei Yuncheng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he ran to the gatehouse and asked.
"Yes, it was the princess who said that you were going to watch the chess game, and she didn't let Miss Luqi invite you." The porter trembled and added: "Miss Luqi also cried for a while." ”
"What are you crying about, even the girls around you are so annoying." Ye Youqing snorted, went out of the house to take the reins of the horse, and turned over on the horse: "Let's go, let's go and watch the chess game." ”
Wei Yuncheng looked at his absent-minded appearance, shook his head funny, and rode on the back of the horse vigorously, "Let's go, anyway, she is an orphan girl, and she has no relatives to look good, or the chess game is better, maybe the one who breaks the game is still a wonderful person." ”
Hmph, how could Ye Youqing not understand what he meant, shook his head disdainfully, and took the lead in galloping.
……
Senior Brother Cai stepped forward to block her in the Lu Mansion and stretched out his hand to block her, meaning something: "Little junior sister, take care of your step!" ”
Lu Zhaojin looked down and saw that the sinuous blood snake had spread in front of her feet.
"It's Senior Brother Cai, you should be careful about your step." Lu Zhaojin glanced at him, his starry eyes flashed, like a brilliant meteor, Senior Brother Cai was stunned and was crossed by Lu Zhaojin, and when he reacted, the girl had already stepped over the maid's corpse and walked outside the courtyard gate, and her back did not hesitate.
Lu Qi and Lu Qiao hurriedly followed, and when she bypassed the maid's corpse, Lu Qi admired the courage of the young lady, and Lu Qiao was full of fear and fear.
"Miss!" Lu Ping didn't say a word and bowed his head, "The old slave collided with the eldest lady, please forgive the eldest lady, but the old slave is really ......"
"Uncle Ping, don't say that!" Lu Zhaojin's eyes moved slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help Lu Ping, who had frosty white temples, "You are an old man left by your father, and you are all confused by Zhaojin, so you have been wronged." ”
"Big ...... Miss? Lu Ping was stunned for a moment and then ecstatic, the eldest lady finally figured it out, did she want to alienate Cai Zhongtang's despicable villain?
Knowing that Lu Ping had been alienated by her for the past year, Lu Zhaojin felt guilty and at the same time, he didn't forget to ask: "What's going on, who are they?" ”
Lu Zhaojin was also wearing a long red embroidered skirt with a slender waist, and the same bright red cardigan was finely embroidered with overlapping patterns, and the material looked extremely rich. The person has bright eyes and bright teeth, a white face, the eyebrows are drawn shallowly, but the willow leaves are like a melodious arc, the back is straight, and the whole person's indescribable spirit is good-looking.
Those few villagers, who have been facing the loess with their backs to the sky for generations, have never seen this beautiful lady with good skin like eggs, and they were suddenly a little sluggish and forgot to answer.
"Miss, these are all the medicine farmers who are responsible for planting herbs in our Lu family Zhuangzi, because Cai Zhongtang wants to lower the price of herbs, and he has to plant horse grass instead, and if he doesn't agree, he will take back the leased land, so he came to intercede."
Lu Ping said it clearly in a few words, it turned out that this year's Dafeng, everything in grain was cheap, and those commonly used annual herbs were even more long, so Senior Brother Cai also had to collect medicinal herbs cheaply.
This was a common method used by businessmen, and although Lu Ping was dissatisfied with his mistreatment of farmers, he had no opinion because Lu Zhaojin handed over the governing power to Senior Brother Cai.
But changing to plant horse grass is a matter of digging its own foundation, Lu Ping didn't do anything, but unfortunately he didn't respond, so he thought that Lu Zhaojin would return to the door today and beg her to be the master.
Cai Zhongtang can no longer be allowed to cover the sky in the Lu family.
Lu Zhaojin was chilled when he heard it, what a Cai Zhongtang, he really expected everything!
It turned out that the harvest of the Lu family's farmers a year later was the hateful horse grass, so that the Lu family didn't even have the capital to make a comeback, and the root cause was here.
It's also strange that she was explicitly forbidden by Mrs. Ye to do these cheap businesses back then, and she didn't have time to figure it out, if she hadn't bumped into her today, I'm afraid she would have been kept in the dark!
This Cai Zhongtang calculates perfectly everywhere, and he is bound to fight so that the Lu family can't turn over, it's really terrifying!
Although the Lu family owes his brother a life, they don't owe him.
What's more, the moment he was in the Lu Mansion, she wanted to find the broken porcelain with peace of mind, let alone diagnose Ye Youche.
Lu Zhaojin remembered clearly, the ruins where the broken porcelain was located were next to the Lu family's study, and Cai Zhongtang surrounded the study and didn't let her go, so he might have turned the study into something.
coveted the treasures of the Lu family and framed her family to ruin, even if he owed him a life to the Cai family, his miserable experience in his previous life could be regarded as paying off.
Lu Zhaojin's face turned ruthless, since he decided to use the thunder method, he had to cut through the chaos with a quick knife, so that Cai Zhongtang had no time to react.
"Lu Ping, send someone to call all the stewards of the Lu family's medicine store in Beijing, if you don't come, you won't use it in the future."
"Lu Qiao, you go and knock on the gong of the Santong Town House, gather all the servants in the house in the lobby, Lu Qi will go to find Mrs. Zhao and Xu Si, and invite a few clan uncles to come. And Zhaoning, Senior Brother Cai......" Lu Zhaojin finally turned his head to look at Cai Zhongtang, who came out closely behind him, with a stunned face on his face, "If it is noon, I haven't seen Zhaoning, you have to think about how to explain to my Lu family." ”
The Lu family's master, Senior Brother Cai's face turned dark.
This is to remind him that Lu Zhaoning is the rightful disciple of the Lu family, and he is only a registered disciple.
Okay, what a Lu Zhaojin, it's really deep hidden.
If he couldn't see Lu Zhaojin's attitude towards him by now, he wouldn't be able to mix up today's status.
Since you want to make trouble, I'll let you see, I, Cai Zhongtang, have been in the Lu family all these years, and I am not a vegetarian.
"Don't worry, Miss, Zhongtang will definitely do a good job." Changed his name, Cai Zhongtang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and threw his sleeves away.
