Chapter 152: Breaking the Army
Meng Tuo was stunned for a moment, and then understood, Meng Tuo lost his smile for a while, and he turned sideways to hide his figure behind the vermilion lacquer high column.
"Don't keep raising the bar with me."
Meng Tuo's voice was already low, but now he deliberately lowered it, and his voice was as low as the lightest and heaviest sound on the guqin, "You listen to me, don't make your own decisions." β
The hall was bustling with people coming and out, and the cries and clamor were endless.
Changting took a step forward, just as he disappeared into the shadows, just blocking the look on her face.
Annoying!
Changting's voice also gradually lowered, "Then you say." β
Meng Tuo glanced around, Man Xiu stood next to him, people who came and went didn't notice the back of the mourning hall, the second lady Chen and her two sons knelt next to the coffin and wiped their tears and thanked people for coming to mourn, the eldest princess was not here, and the third lady Cui was in the outer hall with long sleeves and good dancing to entertain guests, this is the cleanest and best time.
"You want to see who the Heisei wall grass is, and it's a good time. But have you thought about it, why do you think that such a small number of soldiers in Heisei will be worthy of the soldiers and horses of more than ten counties and towns in Yuzhou? β
Meng Tuo buried his head and raised his eyes slightly, his eyes were extremely bright.
Changting was suddenly stunned, how did he see it!
In order to isolate the Shi family from the internal turmoil of the Lu family, she didn't say a word to Meng Tuo, first, she was afraid that the Shi family would be pulled into this muddy water, and second, she was also a little afraid that the Shi family would take the opportunity to blend into the internal forces of the Lu family.
What's more, Changting has no chance to meet the people in the outer courtyard at all now, and even has to take care of the third lady Cui Shi in the handing over the words.
Although there is some meaning of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. But Changting's surname is Lu.
Changting would not guard against Meng Tuo, but she was even more reluctant to ask Meng Tuo to mix in things that he could not do.
Changting's stunned look seemed to amuse Meng Tuo, and Meng Tuo smiled with a rare hook of his lips. "You want to use Lu Wu, the second room, and the third room to borrow strength back and forth, and isolate Lu Seventeen from him, so that he doesn't get involved, the purpose seems to be very clear."
Meng Tuo raised his eyes and looked at it, his tone was rare and brisk, "The girls around you are very loyal, and no one will spread the word outside." β
Changting pursed his lips. She couldn't understand why Meng Tuo was in such a good mood today.
The mind turns back and forth, and the words return to the original point.
Changting pressed his heart, and his words sank. "According to your estimates, how many soldiers can be transferred from top to bottom of Yuzhou? And how many soldiers can listen to a woman's family? β
I really don't understand these Changting, but the eldest princess really understands, but she has the heart to ask Changting to experience alone. I don't know. It's just a little bit of a bottom.
"Thirty thousand."
Meng Tuo said slowly, God knows how many laps he ran back and forth in Yuzhou in order to come to this conclusion? Ten laps! Pingcheng is the capital of Yuzhou, and the land and horses gathered troops and horses to take out of the city claimed that there were more than 10,000 people, but the things on the battlefield had to be listened to in half, that is to say, there were only more than 5,000 to 7,000 people in Heisei who were on standby and flexible at any time. After counting the miscellaneous things, the city defense of 30,000 people is roughly the same.
As for the people who can listen to a woman's family
"Not much. Relying on individual momentum alone, the maximum number of people mobilized is less than 10,000. ββ
Meng Tuo was answering the latter question, "In terms of momentum, Lu Fan's reputation is definitely impossible to have Lu Gongda, and it is almost impossible for a woman to make waves, and it is not so easy to succeed." But you need to be vigilant, the second room makes a fuss about your father and holds the two bloodlines of the lineage in his hands, in case a loyal soldier is bewitched, don't you not distinguish between the fish eye pearls, and blame the good people and the bad people? β
Long Pavilion a trance.
"Let's see what the second lady says."
Meng Tuo knew that Changting probably didn't think of this, how could a little girl in the fourteenth or fifteenth year think so thoroughly? Yes, it has been honed a lot, but people's minds will grow overnight, but their minds and scheming will be slowly sharpened.
She's already smart.
It's painfully smart.
"If the second lady is smart enough, she probably won't make this move, because she is in a hurry now that she makes a stinky move. Therefore, with her mind, she probably couldn't think of pulling out the banner to be a rake. Meng Tuo said lightly.
Changting glanced at him.
yes, you're smart.
"Gillianβ"
Someone was whispering to her.
Changting looked at Manxiu Manxiu frowned, leaned forward and leaned forward, raised his breath and waved his hand towards Changting, and made a lip shape, "Third Lady"
Chang Ting glanced at Meng Tuo quickly, and decided to make a long story short, "You told me to leave this matter alone, but I told you to leave it alone." I'm going to count people, whatever it takes. After all, I am the Lu family, I am Lu. No matter how much I calculate, it is all a contradiction within the family, and others are not good at learning and deserving of it. You're different, if you get involved, I'm afraid it's so easy to get out. The eldest princess is the first to take the Shi family. β
Outsiders are plotting to point fingers at the Lu family's territory.
According to the personality of the eldest princess, the scholar clan is the greatest, if you want to transgress, the previous kindness and friendship can be written off.
Changting saw Meng Tuo nodding before lifting his skirt and preparing to go out.
I just took a step, but I was called by someone behind me.
"Miss Lu, ignore him."
Meng Tuo suddenly whispered abruptly, "You're fine, don't pay too much attention to his words." β
he
Changting was stunned, who is he? Then look at Man Xiu as she thought, hanging her head and making a quail shape. suddenly understood, Man Xiu not only scolded Hu Yuniang with a big mouth and hugged her mother, but also stabbed the matter to Meng Tuo with her hands and eyes
Is she good
Changting's face suddenly turned crimson.
What are you doing! What are you doing!
Changting held the skirt in his hand, and there were plain silk linen ribbons fluttering in the wind outside the window lattice, which suddenly floated into the window, and suddenly floated far away on the branches.
What to do.
Changting buried his head and walked quickly out of the shadows, the people in the hall. She knows everything, and when she passes by, she has to bow her head and say "Pavilion Girl", and if she has a closer relationship, she will call her "Gillian".
But Changting's heart was full of eyes, and Meng Tuo's voice was "Miss Lu". There is no order and no pretending to be familiar with intimacy, it's just Miss Lu.
What can I do?
Changting stood in place and looked at the coffin in a daze, and suddenly a wave of panic rose sharply, she clearly saw that she was sinking deeper and deeper, but Meng Tuo was indifferent.
The third lady called Changting just to ask her to come out to greet the little girls of the right age from each family, and to bring the girls who came to mourn from each family to eat tea and set up a tea talk.
This point Changting has always been handy.
Wait for everyone to leave. After the mourning hall fell to the ground and fell silent, the second lady helped the maid's hand to get up from the futon mat.
Changting watched the second lady walk with a limp, and Xu was squatting and kneeling for a long time. The feet are numb.
The Lu family was cleaning up the mourning hall, and the second lady walked in front of the long pavilion, and didn't want to talk to her too much, so she followed behind without hurrying.
There is a long way from the mourning hall to the main hall. Just on the verandah. The back of the second lady froze.
The pavilion also stopped.
"Gillian"
After crying all day, the second lady called out weakly.
Changting folded his hands on his stomach and answered with a "yes".
The second lady leaned on the maid's whole body, and never turned her head, nor did she ask Changting to go up, but just talked to herself.
"Did you see your uncle's coffin today?"
Changting nodded silently, and after nodding, he realized that the second lady who was facing away from her in front of him was probably out of sight. He opened his mouth again, "Yes." Gillian stood beside the eldest mother today, watching the coffin enter the city and then enter the mourning hall, such a big one, it is difficult for Gillian to pretend that she can't see it. β
The second lady didn't speak for a long time, and her body was as thin as duckweed floating leaves.
"I can understand the pain of you and A-Ning at that time."
The second lady's tone was sad, "If I hadn't seen such a big coffin with my own eyes, I'm afraid I would never have believed that the second master just left." He was traveling in disguise, and I thought he would return triumphantly. The result? There is only one so big that I am waiting for" Her tone suddenly increased, and her voice was so sharp that it seemed to cut through the top of the Lu Mansion, "It's just such a big coffin!" β
Chan rarely lost his temper.
Even when she learned that Lu Fan was dead, she just cried over and over again, obviously wanting to question the eldest princess of Zhending, but the words she asked lacked a lot of momentum for no reason.
Changting turned her head sideways, not knowing how to respond, maybe she shouldn't respond.
The second lady was still talking.
"The second master has always been a good person, he values love and righteousness, and he is also sympathetic to the weak and sympathetic to the old and the young. He went with a cauliflower, but he has been in peace and security as the second master of the Lu family mansion in Jiankang City, what do others call him? Call him the younger brother of Duke Lu," the second lady seemed to be immersed in the old things, "I feel sorry for him, but I can't say anything, and now it can be regarded as just making people into creation!" β
The white lanterns in the mansion seem to be shaking violently all the time!
The second lady turned her back, half of her body was supported on the maid's body, and suddenly stopped talking, and looked sideways to the southeast, her expression was unpredictable but she didn't know what she was looking at.
The pavilion followed her gaze and looked over, and could not see anything except the low eaves corners and the lanterns hanging high.
"Where are Changping and Changxing!?"
The second lady's voice suddenly became extremely panicked.
The maid beside her had a calm attitude, "The two Lang Jun are in the mansion where the Chen family stays, and they were sent out early in the morning, so don't worry about it." β
Yes!
Lu Fan's funeral, of course the Chen family is coming!
Putting the two sons in the place where the Chen family stays is naturally the safest!
Changting looked at the second lady as usual, and the second lady gradually seemed to be relieved and gradually turned around, her face was flushed, and her voice was low, like a promise and a coax.
"Gillian, you grew up under the watchful eyes of your little uncle, it is impossible for your little uncle to treat you badly, if you can forget what happened tonight, forget it all." (To be continued......)
