Chapter 162: Memories

Jing Chuntang is obviously a little strange thing, Jiang Xuan should also be aware of it.

Lu Qingrong thought to himself.

It's just that they have never talked deeply about the things in the Hou Mansion in the past, and most of them just stop at the point.

Whether to mention this matter to him, Lu Qingrong is still a little undecided.

When I returned to the Yuyuan, I found that Jiang Xuan had also returned, and he was sitting in the hall drinking tea at the moment, and Cai Mei and Cai Lian were standing aside.

"So late?" Jiang Xuan glanced at the sky outside, "I have arranged a lot of things for you?" ”

"Not really." Lu Qingrong sat down on the circle chair beside Jiang Xuan, and glanced at the two people next to him as if he was inadvertent.

I saw that they were still wearing green dresses and fine makeup, but they were much more restrained than before.

Since Lilac and the others went to Zhuangzi, the rest of the people left behind have become a lot more disciplined.

Lu Qingrong only hopes that they can maintain their current state forever, so thank God.

"Go down first." Jiang Xuan's gaze was still on Lu Qingrong, and he waved at them casually.

Seeing this, Cai Mei and Cai Lian rarely left without any expression on their faces.

Lu Qingrong then went on to talk about what he did today.

"I only stayed in Qinyi Courtyard for a while in the morning, and Mrs. Wu said that she started with the affairs of Jingchun Hall, so she arranged for Aunt Wei and Aunt Chen to take me to see the account books of Jingchun Hall over the years." Lu Qingrong said simply.

"Jingchun Hall?" Jiang Xuan pondered for a moment, "What things have you been watching all day?" ”

"Exactly." Lu Qingrong nodded, "It's just that I didn't even see half of it, and I didn't let those account books come out, saying that the rules in the Hou Mansion were like this." ”

"Well, that's true." Jiang Xuan affirmed this statement, "You don't have to be too anxious, many things in Jingchun Hall can't be figured out by looking at those account books, if you don't understand anything, you can ask Cao's mother, although she has been away for a few years, she is still the person who has been on an errand in Jingchun Hall for the longest time." ”

"I know that, too." Lu Qingrong took the opportunity to mention Cao's mother, and continued: "I looked at the personnel roster of Jingchun Hall in the past 20 years today, and it is true that only Cao's mother has stayed the longest, and only she is still in the mansion of those who were on an errand earlier. ”

Lu Qingrong looked at Jiang Xuan's expression, didn't see anything unusual, and asked tentatively, "Those people...... Still on the Grange? ”

"Nope." Jiang Xuan replied simply, "It's been a long time since I saw him." ”

Lu Qingrong was a little stunned for an instant.

He said it so commonly, as if he were talking about today's weather.

"Why is that?" Lu Qingrong couldn't help but blurt out, "Can't you find any of them?" ”

"I can't find it." Jiang Xuan's voice was still flat, and his gaze was withdrawn from Lu Qingrong, turning into staring at the celadon teacup in his hand, "At that time, I was still young, and it was not easy to go out of the mansion, but when I grew up, I ran to the Grange by myself, but I couldn't find anyone anymore." According to the steward of the grange, some of them fell ill and died, some were ransomed by their families, and in short, there was no one left. ”

Jiang Xuan said in the end, only then did he show some indescribable helplessness.

Lu Qingrong suddenly hesitated, and finally spoke: "Do you also think that their departure is a little strange?" ”

Jiang Xuan's gaze was always on the teacup in his hand, but there was a feeling of penetrating the teacup.

The room was silent for a few moments before his slightly ethereal voice sounded again.

"At first, I didn't think about it that much, but I just thought that the sky would fall overnight...... My mother was fine the night before, and there was no difference between Qiē and usual, but the next morning, Qiē was different, and I didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to her. However, all I got was bad news, no explanation, so I always wanted to ask for clarification. ”

"I've heard about it, too." Lu Qingrong's tone couldn't help but be a little low, "It is said to be a sudden emergency." ”

"Sudden emergency...... This is indeed enough to deal with others who don't know the reason. When Jiang Xuan said this, he came out of his memories, and his voice became calm and firm, "It won't be like this forever, there will definitely be a day when the truth will be revealed." ”

Lu Qingrong also felt that there must be the so-called truth, and he also felt his determination at the moment.

It turned out that he had not given up.

"Hmm." Lu Qingrong's eyes looked at Jiang Xuan and became very solemn.

At this time, Jiang Xuan also happened to raise his head, taking in her expression, and he lost his mind for a moment.

It was a look he had never seen before, there was not the slightest doubt in his eyes, and it was full of trust.

At this moment, Jiang Xuan suddenly had a ridiculous idea that he might really be overjoyed.

It's not about the changes in his body, he still knows very well what his body is.

It's because he feels that he has this feeling of being trusted, which makes him doubly easier, and many of the beliefs that he used to hold on to are no longer difficult now.

"Don't be too desperate, take your time, Jingchuntang's side is just the beginning." Jiang Xuan said with concern.

Lu Qingrong saw that he had changed the topic, and he no longer mentioned those past events.

"I understand." Lu Qingrong turned to ask, "If you go out today, you can return to Shun Lì." ”

She just wanted to show her concern, and didn't mean to ask about the details.

Regarding Jiang Xuan's affairs outside, she always didn't want to interfere too much.

Maybe it's because of the influence of the custom of the Great Qi Dynasty that the male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, or it may be that he originally felt that he should leave some space for the other party.

Jiang Xuan didn't think about it so much, and while putting down the celadon teacup in his hand, he said: "It's uncertain whether the news that the second prince got is true or not, there is no movement on the side of the Yulin Army today, but it still can't be taken lightly, if there is really any change, don't miss the opportunity." ”

Lu Qingrong nodded slightly, feeling that there was some truth in what he said.

However, this obviously belongs to the category of court affairs, and she does not want to comment on it.

Jiang Xuan also stopped and did not continue.

"I almost forgot, I received something from Master Sun for us today, saying that it was some local products for us to try." Jiang Xuan finally had a smile on his face.

After confirming that the "Lord Sun" in his mouth was Sun Yiming, Lu Qingrong was a little surprised: "He has only been off for a few days, and he is still far from Mobei, right?" ”

"That's for sure, this time and again, even if they leave Shuntian Mansion, they shouldn't have gone too far." Jiang Xuan explained.

"As soon as he left Shuntian Mansion and started to bring us things, could he have failed all the way?" Lu Qingrong felt funny, and at the same time sighed in his heart that his relationship with Jiang Xuan was indeed extraordinary.

"You really got it right!" Jiang Xuan smiled, "According to the meaning of his letter, when he really arrives in Mobei, I am afraid that there will be nothing to carry, so I will pay more attention on the road." ”

"Is Mobei really that desolate?" Lu Qingrong asked casually.

"Originally, it wasn't so strict. He said this because he wasn't familiar with it. Jiang Xuan smiled, "Otherwise, he wouldn't have done everything possible to collect information everywhere, and finally dragged a companion to go with him!" ”

This is Jiang Ling.

Lu Qingrong wasn't sure if it was her own delusion, she suddenly felt that Jiang Xuan seemed to have something imperceptible when he mentioned Jiang Ling just now.

"Whether this companion can really help him is not certain." Lu Qingrong didn't think much about it, and said honestly: "I heard Sister Jiang say that Jiang Ling hasn't stayed there for a long time, and his actions have been restricted a lot from beginning to end...... And he is somewhat arrogant, and he doesn't listen to the opinions of others. ”

Lu Qingrong had no intention of saying it, but Jiang Xuan was inevitably a little concerned.

"The latter sentence was also said by his sister?" Jiang Xuan asked curiously.

"Of course ......not," Lu Qingrong smiled naturally, "I've known their brother and sister since I was very young, and then they lived in the Lu Mansion for so long, so we naturally know some of them." It is certainly true to say that he is talented, but the rest is the opinion of the benevolent and the wise, and after all, he has never had a deep friendship, so it is not known whether he is prejudiced. ”

Lu Qingrong didn't want to judge others arbitrarily, he just said his feelings.

Jiang Xuan, on the other hand, was very curious about her describing Jiang Ling like this, but he didn't want to show too much concern, so he only said vaguely: "Master Sun is still very accurate in seeing people, so we don't have to worry about him about this!" ”

In fact, Lu Qingrong was also puzzled, why did he respect Sun Yiming so much.

In her memories in the past few months, except for the second prince, Jiang Xuan mentioned this Sun Yiming the longest, and every time she mentioned it, although it was not a compliment, it never meant to be derogatory.

Although Lu Qingrong didn't say anything, the disapproving expression on his face was a little obvious.

Jiang Xuan naturally noticed it too.

"It seems that you have a lot of prejudice against Lord Sun!"

"If it's a prejudice, I'm afraid I'm far more than the one who is like this to him in the capital, right?" Lu Qingrong admitted it.

Jiang Xuan shook his head helplessly, he didn't think that Lu Qingrong was a person, he suddenly remembered something, and explained: "At that time, it was just a joke of Lord Sun, but I was a little ridiculous, so I really gave them such names......"

Lu Qingrong was slightly stunned, and after a while, he remembered that he should be talking about the names of Cai Mei and Cai Lian.

In fact, her so-called prejudice against Sun Yiming should have little to do with this matter, long before that, she already disliked this person very much.

Whether she wants to admit it or not, it should have something to do with Qiu Muyun.

Jiang Xuan saw that she didn't say anything more, and he couldn't continue to say anything.

The day after that, Lu Qingrong also looked at the account books in Jingchun Hall for a whole day.

And the more people you don't want to see, the faster time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the Hefu Church.

And Jiang Xuan did as he said, following Lu Qingrong and Mrs. Wu together. R1152
