Chapter Fifty-Six: Leaving Beijing, the Ancestral Tomb of the Yun Family

The next day, Jiang Luoxiu, who was wearing a vermilion court uniform, went out to the court, and saw Di Lian and Luo Jia in the open courtyard in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Seeing him come out, Tilian paced forward, her eyes clear, "Daddy, Lian'er is gone." ”

Seeing her dressed in Tianshui plain men's clothes, Jiang Luoxiu frowned slightly, even if she was reluctant, she had already discussed with Rong Guogong last night, and now she couldn't think of any other way than to send her out.

With a long sigh, Jiang Luoxiu raised his hand and stroked her head, "You haven't been through wind and rain since you were a child, you will definitely have to suffer along the way, Lian'er, take care of yourself, Daddy is waiting for you to come back." ”

Her eyes were warm, and Tilian leaned into his arms, unable to hide her feelings, and choked up, "It's Lian'er who is causing trouble for Daddy again." ”

The iron-blooded and cold-hearted Zuo Xiangye couldn't help but feel dry in his throat right now, patted his daughter's back and whispered, "It's been too long since you made trouble for your father, and your father thinks you've grown up and become alienated, but now it's good, the ghostly Lian'er is Daddy's baby." ”

Tilian finally burst into tears and cried out loud, "Lian'er will come back soon, and she will make trouble for her father every day in the future." ”

"Okay, I want to give my father a grandson who is the best at making trouble." , Jiang Luoxiu smiled dumbly, and was very helpless about her daughter's coquettish appearance of talking nonsense when she was sad.

Luo Jia smacked his tongue as he watched from the sidelines, looked at the sky, and reminded, "Let's go sooner, take advantage of the surprise, and hide in Beijing early." ”

If Xie Hengxu suddenly asked to leave Beijing, Emperor An would inevitably be suspicious, and once he found out that Di Lian was not in the capital, he would definitely send someone out of the city to chase him, which several people knew in their hearts.

Therefore, the father and daughter separated gently, Jiang Luoxiu patted Dilian on the shoulder and advised, "Can you bring enough silver?" Even if you are hiding, don't grieve yourself. ”

"Daddy, rest assured, there are people from the Yun family business in various places, and those stewards knew me when the old marquis was buried, with Moyu, and with their help, Lian'er will be safe and sound." , Tillian wiped her face and said with a smile.

Luo Jia shook his head helplessly, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Xiangye, I'm still here." ”

Jiang Luoxiu looked at him and nodded when he heard this, "Although I don't know the strengths of Master Luo, but Lian'er's trust is my trust, and along the way, there is Young Master Luo." He bowed.

He is an elder, and the head of the ministers, Luo Jia naturally didn't dare to accept this gift, and hurriedly bowed in return, "Xiangye doesn't have to be polite, Tilian has a life-saving grace for Luo Jia, which Luo Jia should do." ”

Jiang Luoxiu sighed shallowly, bowed his head slightly, looked at Di Lian's eyebrows carefully, and whispered, "Go ahead." ”

Bei Tooth bit lightly, Tillian lifted her robe and knelt down and kowtowed three times, "My daughter is not filial, don't be a father." After that, he got up, dragged Luo Jia to turn around and hurried away.

Standing under the corridor with his hands in his hands, Jiang Luoxiu watched the figures of the two disappear outside the mansion in a daze, only to feel worried and melancholy in his heart, sighed for a long time, and stepped down the corridor and got into the carriage, "Let's go." ”

The carriage moved lightly in the direction of the palace gate.

Regardless of what would happen at the court, Tillian and Luo Jia walked all the way to the north gate, and left the city when the gate opened.

Xu was too early, there were only the two of them on the road, because it had rained last night, and the official road was muddy and bumpy after leaving the city, compared to Tilian's slow and occasional stumbling, Luo Jia, who was holding her with one hand, was much more leisurely.

Squinting at her appearance today, Luo Jia couldn't help but smile and tilted his head slightly, "You haven't praised my disguise skills yet." ”

Hearing this, Tillian rolled his eyes, holding his robe in one hand and grabbing his arm with the other, "I thought that you Jianghu people, the so-called disguise technique, is to wear a human skin mask." ”

The change in Luo Jia's mouth is to apply a layer of potion that darkens her skin on Tilian's face, and draw some water chestnut eyebrows to highlight her heroic spirit, the moon eyes are narrow and long, and the dark eyes are also turned light brown with potions, which is completely different from the disfigurement that Tilian imagined.

Luo Jia raised his chin and sneered when he heard this, "What do you know, how disgusting things like human skin masks are, although I am a 'poison man', but I am not so inferior, don't you feel cold when the living human skin is attached to your face?" ”

Di Lian didn't care, and squinted at him and said, "With your skills, it's really fateful to be able to evade pursuit in the rivers and lakes for so long." ”

"You're an outsider, you don't understand." , Luo Jia grinded his teeth, let go of Tilian, and crossed his waist to explain to her, "The most eye-catching thing for people is the eyebrows, and the charm is in the eyebrows, as long as the eyebrows are different, no matter how much they look like others, they will only hesitate, and the real master of disguise will not change a mask." Look at your dress, you won't say that you are a woman if you ask anyone, at most you will say that you are male and female, you and the 'first beauty' Jiang Dilian, it seems that it is not like a god, my disguise technique is to change your charm. “

After saying that, his chin was raised, with a look of 'praise me, worship me quickly', and a trimmed beard on his upper lip was picked and picked.

Tillian was speechless, shook her head with a blank look, and walked straight forward.

Luo Jia's smile retracted, his apricot eyes stared at her and watched her go farther and farther, and finally caught up with a helpless face, tilted his head and said, "What are you doing so fast, where are you looking for the Yun family's ancestral tomb?" ”

Tilian paused, her narrow Danfeng eyes closed, she took a deep breath and turned around violently, and said with a smile, "Then you are still verbose, what are you waiting for!" ”

Luo Jia shrunk his neck and reached out to grab her arm, "Follow me, the road up the mountain is not easy." ”

So, after Xie Hengxu, Tillian once again experienced the invincibility of light skills on Luo Jia's back.

Thinking that Emperor An would send someone to follow him from the north and south gates, Di Lian decided to take refuge near the capital for a few days, and the safest place was the Yun family's ancestral tomb built on the mountainside.

The blessing of Luo Jia's excellent light work, it was not yet noon when the two arrived at Beizhuang, standing outside the door of Beizhuang, Luo Jia glanced at it and couldn't help sighing.

"Sure enough, it is worthy of being rich in the world, and even the place where the dead are buried occupies such a large area, which is really outrageous."

Di Lian gave him a blank look, and stepped on the bluestone road towards the closed black wooden door, "There are more than ten generations of descendants and families of the Yun family living here, how can they live if they don't build a bigger one." ”

Luo Jia followed behind her, couldn't help but shudder, frowned and said, "Don't say it so much, as if those people are really eating and playing cards together." ”

"I can't see it." , Tillian looked at him with a smile and a joke, "So you're afraid of ghosts?" ”

"What are the ghosts afraid of!" , Luo Jia immediately retorted, pursed his lips and pretended to be disdainful, "My poison hero Luo Jia has killed countless people, and he is still afraid of ghosts?" ”

Tillian echoed with a smile, "Yes, people are much more terrible than ghosts, you even dare to kill people, how can you be afraid of ghosts." He raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door.

The quiet village was built in the depths of the bamboo forest, and the echo of this 'dong dong' made Luo Jia's back stiffen, and he looked back nervously, and then heard the wooden door 'squeak' and pushed it open.

When I looked back, the door opened a crack, and a hunchbacked old man with gray hair came out, his wrinkled face expressionless, and his cloudy and sharp eyes looked at the two of them carefully.

Luo Jia swallowed his saliva, this person is more terrifying than a ghost.

Di Lian smiled lightly, revealing the black jade Pixiu Pei hidden in her sleeve, and whispered, "Cang Bo is good." ”

The hunchbacked old man glanced at the jade pendant in Di Lian's hand, his sharp eyes slowed, and he opened the door, "Two sons, please come in." ”

Tillian bowed lightly, pulled Luo Jia's sleeve and dragged him through the door.

The door closed behind the two, and Cang Bo reinserted the three iron gates on the door, turned around to lead the two of them, and said in a hoarse voice, "Uncle Liang came over a few days ago and told him that Miss Tilian was going to go far away. ”

Tilian nodded, her gaze swept over the bleak front yard surrounded by bamboo and trees, and said politely, "I'm afraid that if we have to stay for a few days, someone will inevitably find us, and I will be bothered by Cangbo to place us in the secret room of the cemetery." ”

"Miss Tilian rest assured, the old slave is ready, there are only the old slave and two grandsons living in this village, and they will send them to the secret room for daily food."

Tilian jaw head, then no longer speak, the village is indeed very large, many places in the village are the same as the Yunhou Mansion, from the old wood Langdong can be seen to be old, obviously the Yunhou Mansion must have been repaired several times, the appearance of this Villa, is the most primitive Yunhou Mansion construction.

The cemetery is in the back house of Beizhuang, the stone tombs surrounded by blue bricks are neatly arranged, there are more than 40 of them roughly counted, there are obsidian carved stone tablets in front of each tomb, all sit in the south and face north, and the north side of the tomb is a spacious ancestral hall, which enshrines the spiritual position of the ancestors of these Yun families, neatly arranged in three rows, and the strong incense breath in the ancestral hall shows that the candle flame here must never be extinguished.

Cang Bo led the two of them around the high platform dedicated to the spiritual seat, and hung the portraits of the heads of each generation of the Yun family on the east wall, and the portrait of Lao Yunhou was the second on the right. On the right side of the portrait, there is also a picture of a young man in a green shirt, Tilian slowly paced closer, and the person in the painting sat in a wheelchair, very similar to Yun Shili, but his eyes were dark.

I saw Cang Bo lift the second portrait on the left, and there was a raised stone trough behind him, and he didn't know where to turn, and the three-story platform enshrined in the spiritual seat slowly moved away, revealing a stone door behind it.

Luo Jia looked surprised and surprised, and leaned over to look at the stone gate first, raised his eyebrows and said, "In such a secret place, it is extremely inconvenient to send food every day." ”

Cang Bo laughed when he heard this, "There is a passage to the kitchen in the secret room, it will be convenient for Zizhuang and Zidui to enter and exit, and that passage is also intended to facilitate the people inside to escape first once someone discovers the secret room." ”

Luo Jia nodded with a dry smile when he heard this, and glanced at Tillian.

The two of them followed Cangbo into the stone gate, through the dark staircase corridor, and arrived at the so-called secret room in less than a quarter of an hour, complete with beds, couches, lamps, candles, tables and chairs, and did not feel damp and gloomy at all.

After sending Cang Bo away, Luo Jia pulled Tilian to sit at the table, leaned over and whispered, "This Yun family even has to build such a secret passage for the ancestral tomb, it can be seen that there must be some ulterior secrets. He stared at Tillian without blinking.

The narrow Danfeng eyes were slightly curved, and Di Lian smiled and said casually, "The family is famous, which one has no secrets." ”

Luo Jia smacked his tongue and said with a look of interest, "Yes, even if you know, you won't sue me." ”

"It's about the survival of the entire Yun family, even Zixu I won't say it. Today, when you get out of this building, you have to forget it all. ”

"Isn't that difficult for a strong man?" Luo Jia raised his eyebrows and screamed, looking at her Qingning eyes, and sighed helplessly for a while, "It's a big deal that I'm rotten in my stomach, no one will say it." ”
