Chapter Eighty-Seven: Wounded Parting

Jian Yu saw a woman standing outside the door of the house from a distance, because the sky was too dark, he didn't see the woman's appearance clearly, but he felt a little familiar inexplicably, and then saw the woman quickly turn around and enter the house, which made him a little strange, followed the maid in front of him to the door of the house, the maid turned his head and said to him: "Childe, this is it." ”

Jian Yu nodded, then stretched out his hand and looked at the door gently, but there was no response in the middle of the sound, his brows furrowed, and he turned his head and asked the maid beside him, "You also saw someone enter the house just now, right?" ”

Shui Qin nodded, which was also very strange, but he still said respectfully on his face: "Childe, let the slave maid call the door, those two palace maid sisters may not know that it is us." ”

Jian Yu nodded at this time, took a step back, and behind him stood a fifteen or sixteen-year-old woman with a delicate face, her eyebrows and eyes were five or six points similar to Jian Yu, she reached out and pulled his sleeve, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, I said you don't have to come over, I'm enough alone." ”

Jian Yu patted her sister Jian Xi's hand, and smiled helplessly: "Your brother, I don't want to stay on the boat anymore, you see what is going on today, I knew this, I wouldn't have agreed to my mother to come over today." ”

Jian Xi's face was full of guilt, and she bit her lower lip and said: "It's all my fault, if I hadn't been soft-hearted for a while, I wouldn't have agreed to Jun Yurou, if it weren't for her, none of these things would have happened today, and Sister Lu wouldn't have fallen into the water......"

"Where can I blame you for this......" Jian Yu sighed, raised her hand and touched her sister's hair, her tone was full of helplessness.

The cress knocked on the door for a while, but still didn't respond, so she turned around with some embarrassment, looked at Jian Yu and said, "Childe, this ......"

Jian Yu looked at the closed door, and didn't force it, so he said: "Forget it, Xu is someone has already fallen asleep, let's not bother, let's go, and I can give a gift and thank you another day." ”

The three of them immediately turned around and left, and Lu Yuwan, who had been sticking to the door and had not moved, listened to the footsteps outside the door that were gradually moving away, and finally breathed a long sigh of relief, put aside the basin of water that had been firmly held in his hand, and suddenly remembered what he had just heard, Jun Yurou? Sister Lu, did you really let yourself guess, this Yao family is the Yao family she knows, and the Sister Lu in the mouth of that talented woman shouldn't be her half-sister Lu Qianchen? Lu Yuwan suddenly chuckled, this world is really too small, so you can meet so many acquaintances, fortunately Jian Yu didn't recognize her, otherwise it would be really a little troublesome, but if the person who fell into the water was really Lu Qianchen, maybe he could be blessed by misfortune.

Jian Yu and Jian Xi walked back for a while, Jian Yu's heart suddenly moved, and she couldn't help but ask, "Shui Qin, what do the two palace maids you saw look like just now?" ”

Shui Qin thought for a while before replying: "There is one who looks very beautiful, and the other one who accompanied me to get clothes is very beautiful, the slave maid stayed for a while when she first saw it, but that sister seems to have a scar on her face, such a beauty, it's a pity......"

When Shui Qin shook his head in regret, Jian Yu's expression became excited, he stopped suddenly, and asked with a little shortness of breath: "Is the woman's scar on the left side of her face, probably...... It's so long. Jian Yu stretched out his finger to compare the length, and his eyes stared at the cress motionlessly.

Shui Qin was a little frightened by Jian Yu's appearance, and immediately nodded, and Jian Xi on the side rarely saw his brother in such a gaffe, so he asked out loud, "What?" Brother, do you know that palace maid? ”

A hint of ecstasy flashed on Jian Yu's face, and he didn't care about explaining anything to Jian Xi, leaving only one sentence, "You go back to the boat first and wait for me, and I'll be back in a while." Then he turned and ran away towards Lu Fei. Jian Xi was helpless, but her heart was even more strange, she rarely saw her brother look like this, the palace maid ...... Who the hell is it? Jian Xi shook her head, and could only turn around and go back to the cruise ship.

Jian Yu ran back to the door, but stopped when he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he thought that Lu Yuwan ran into the house in such a hurry, it must be because he saw him, and then they knocked on the door for so long, but she avoided it, making it clear that she didn't want to see him, Jian Yu thought for a long time, stretched out his hand, and withdrew it, after repeating it for a long time, he still didn't knock on the door after all, he took a step back slightly, his expression was a little stunned, and he thought in his heart, since she didn't want to see him, then he didn't want to disturb her, Anyway, as long as I know that she is safe, it will be fine. Jian Yu finally turned around and left, with an indescribable loneliness in her back.

Lu Yu was in the house at night, she didn't know that Jian Yu was going and coming back, she just sat on the bed in a daze, thinking about what she should do in the future, and she didn't know how Hua Ling told Qin Qin and them where she was going, she didn't say goodbye like this, they must be very worried, Shishi and Si Qingqing's injuries should have been almost healed, Shishi's temperament must be talking about her conscience again, Si Qingqing and that Sang Yang don't know what happened, if Sang Yang is sincere to her, it would be great, Zhen'er should be about to give birth, I don't know if the child was born, is it a boy or a girl......

Although she has always hated the workshop, she doesn't hate the people in the workshop at all, those poor and lovely women, although there may be quarrels, maybe there will be their own little scheming, but most of them are kind, in order to make their lives better, and work hard, Lu Yanwan wants to go back again, even if it is only for a while, and it is good to say goodbye to everyone well, but I don't know if Hua Ling will agree to this request. Lu Yan fell asleep in the chaotic thoughts, he saw a lot in the dream, everyone seemed to be very happy, if the reality could be as beautiful as a dream, how good would it be......

Three days later, the aunt in the palace who specially taught Lu Yanwan etiquette finally arrived, the age of the person who came was not very old, only twenty-five or sixteen years old, looking similar to Qin Qin, named Su Jin, not as Yan SΓΉ as Lu Yanwan originally imagined, with a round face and white skin, it looked very kind.

Lu Qian and Su Jin seemed to know each other, and when they saw that it was her, they were very happy, and took her hand and said, "I've been thinking about who I will send, it turns out to be Aunt Su, now I can rest assured." ”

Su Jin looked at the appearance of a very good-tempered person, smiled at Lu Qian and Lu Yanwan, and said gently: "I'm also very strict, don't think that you can be lazy if it's me." ”

"Naturally, I won't, I'll definitely try to learn." Lu Yanwan blushed slightly, and assured Su Jin.

Su Jin smiled and looked at Lu Yan for a while before she spoke: "What a beautiful girl, she looks smart, this palace rule is not difficult, let's try to learn it as soon as possible, you should enter the palace early to serve Her Royal Highness the princess." ”

Lu Yan nodded again and again, and in the following days, Lu Yan was busy, although Su Jin looked kind, but he was doing things well, Lu Yan was willing to endure hardships, Su Jin was not so tired to teach, but the rules in the palace were cumbersome and complicated, and the general palace maids entered the palace at the age of seven or eight, and slowly studied little by little, and they could really be on their own until they were about fourteen or fifteen years old, but Lu Yan Wan had to learn what others spent six or seven years learning in a short period of time, and naturally it took many times the hard work.

For three whole months, Lu Yan was able to learn a little, seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, and the time for her to enter the palace was getting closer and closer. In November, Su Jin felt that there was nothing left to teach Lu Yanwan, so she went back to the palace to clarify her situation, Li Yan issued a will, and five days later, Lu Yanwan entered the palace and officially became a first-class palace maid by Princess Shuyang's side.

When Lu Xiwan received this will, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, that palace, his fate in the previous life took a turn there, and the misfortune of a qiΔ“ began there, in this life, he actually wanted to go there as a palace maid, and he only hoped that a qiΔ“ would develop as he expected.

What Lu Yuwan didn't expect was that the day before she entered the palace, a major event happened in the court, but at that time she was preparing to enter the palace and didn't know anything about it, but this matter was a turning point of fate for Jian Yu, and neither the previous life nor this life had changed.

Ze belongs to the neighbors of the Great Zhou, has always been fierce, Ze is a nomadic people, but because the country is divided, there has been no unification for a long time, the domestic wars are continuous, and the border of the Great Zhou has many nuisances, just because the Great Zhou is strong, and dare not invade, and at the beginning of this year, Ze rose a leader, he unified the divided Ze country, the army of the whole country is firmly grasped in his hands, the civil strife has subsided, the lack of materials within the Ze country, this majestic leader started the idea of the Great Zhou, first from the border of the two countries, Looted a lot of cattle, sheep and wealth, and later even women began to rob, the leader of Zeguo was ambitious, regarded the rich Da Zhou as a piece of fat, and couldn't wait to take a big bite, and finally couldn't help it, and sent troops to the border of the Great Zhou, Yuncheng, wanting to rob the city, if it weren't for the desperate resistance of the border soldiers, I am afraid that Yuncheng has become the bag of Zeguo.

After Li Yan knew, he was naturally furious and decided to send troops to fight Zeguo, but in order to prevent the lives of the people on the border, he still sent envoys to Zeguo first, wanting to persuade them to surrender, Li Yan sent the current Honglu Siqing, Jian Mingyu, that is, Jian Yu's father, Jian Mingyu went for several months, but in November, news came back, Jian Mingyu was shot by a stray arrow, could not be treated, and was already dead, Li Yan was furious, and ordered 50,000 troops to the border to crusade against Zeguo, and Jian Mingyu's son, that is, Jian Yu, Invite yourself to go out with the army to avenge your father!

The day Lu Yu entered the palace late, it was when Jian Yu left Beijing, before dawn in the early morning, he arrived at the city gate with an army of 50,000, he was wearing full armor, riding on a white war horse, tightly holding the reins of the horse, looking back at the imperial city in the distance, he thought countless times, what kind of attitude he would have, what kind of mood he used to go to the battlefield he longed for, but when this day really came, he only had a piece of sorrow in his heart, his father's bones were not cold, his grandfather was sick in bed, and his mother was struggling to support at home, And he knew that he was extremely unfilial when he went to the battlefield at this time, but he couldn't help but do it, as the eldest son and grandson of the Wu'an Hou Mansion, at this moment he had to shoulder the responsibility of revitalizing the family, he wanted to let his father's spirit in the sky see, his son would not only avenge him, but also make the Wu An Hou Mansion stronger, the glory of the ancestors would not slowly decline, and when he returned, he would definitely come back with his father, and no one would look down on them Wu Anhou Mansion at that time.

In a trance, Jian Yu remembered the girl who once played the pipa to him, the overlord removed his armor, the overlord removed his armor, he would be as brave as the overlord, but he didn't want that ending, when he returned, he would definitely go to her again, and he would make her a Yu Ji who only belonged to him.

At this time, Lu Yanwan and Lu Qian stood outside the palace gate together, preparing to enter the palace from the Xihua Gate, and when she walked to the palace gate, she suddenly stopped, turned around and looked back into the distance, for some reason, there was always an extremely uneasy feeling in her heart, as if she had lost something. Lu Yanwan looked dazed, and a touch of sadness appeared on her face.

"Wanwan, why don't you leave?" Green Silk urged her in front, she turned around, suppressed the sourness in her heart, and quickly followed Green Silk until the palace door slowly closed behind her, and she was no longer visible.

Li Yufen was very happy about Lu Yanwan's arrival, as soon as she entered the door, she pulled her to talk all the time, Lu Huiwan naturally smiled and listened all the time, just looking at the increasingly ugly face of the palace maid named Narcissus behind Li Yufen, and knew that her future life would not be so good.

"Hey~~~ I've been bored to death lately, my father is busy and can't see anyone, I haven't seen her for five or six days, and my mother is also sick and won't let people see her." Li Yufen wrinkled her face with a bun, complained to Lu Yanwan, and didn't need her to speak, she immediately laughed again, looked at her and said: "Fortunately, you came, I waited for so long, and I thought my father was lying to me, I know that you were originally in the workshop, there must be a lot of fun things in it, tell me about it." ”

Li Yufen is at the age of curiosity and activity, so naturally she can't calm down, Lu Huiwan can only patiently tell her some interesting things in the workshop, and it was not until lunch at noon that Li Yufen let her go.

Lu Yiwan breathed a sigh of relief, she was really not very good at coaxing children. The meals in the palace are delivered by the imperial dining room at a fixed time every day, and the palace maids generally finish serving the master before going to eat, Li Yufen saw that Lu Yang came on the first day, so she didn't let her serve in front of her, and Lu Qian led her around the princess palace, and then took her to the place where she lived.

First-class palace maids usually live in one room for two people, because Lu Yanwan and Lu Qian are familiar with each other, the two naturally arranged in a room, Lu Qian helped Lu Yanwan bring a new set of bedding, and helped her carefully tidy up, and when everything was packed up, it was already time for Shen, Lu Yanwan felt that she was hungry, so she looked at Lu Qian with some apologies and said, "I'm tired of you starving with me." ”

Lu Qian smiled indifferently: "It's okay, but eat a little later, if you're hungry, there should be some food for us over there, let's go over and eat." ”

Lu Haowan nodded, and followed Lu Qian to the ear room where they usually dined, and when they got there, they only saw a few little palace maids resting, and when they saw the two of them coming in, they only glanced at them and didn't get up.

Seeing that the place where the food and snacks were placed on weekdays was empty, Lu Qian frowned, and asked the palace maids, "Isn't there any food left at noon?" ”

One of the palace maids raised an eyebrow and glanced at them, and replied in an unfriendly tone: "I don't look at what time it is, and where there is any food." ”

Lu Qian looked angry, and was about to open her mouth to reason with them, but Lu Yanwan grabbed her, shook her head slightly, and then pulled her arm out of the ear room.

When he got outside, the expression on Lu Xuan's face was still very angry, and he asked Lu Yanwan dissatisfiedly: "Why are you pulling me, I've only been in the palace for a few months, those little hooves dare to treat me like this, and it's worth it if you go on like this!" ”

Lu Yanwan rarely saw Lu Qian so hot, so he hurriedly comforted and said: "Sister Lu Xuan, can't you see it, they are not targeting you, they are just targeting me, and they are just two or third class palace maids, where do you have the courage to argue with you, I am afraid that they have been instructed by some people." ”

When Lu Qian heard Lu Yanwan say this, she also thought of the joints, and immediately said: "It must be the girl of Narcissus, I didn't like her before, I would only compete for favor in front of the princess, this time you entered the palace, and you were so favored by Her Royal Highness the princess, she must be angry in her heart, so she wanted to make a stumbling block for you behind her back." ”

Lu Yanwan thought of the way Narcissus looked at her today, and only smiled slightly: "It's normal for her to do this, after all, my arrival made her feel that her status by the princess's side was threatened, so she would naturally take some measures." It's just that she's not a soft persimmon, and she always has to pay some respects back to her so that she can understand that she is not so easy to bully.

Lu Yanwan didn't say the latter words, and she didn't fully trust Lu Xuan, who was Li Yan's person, in fact, she was even more afraid in her heart.

"Don't be afraid, I'll help you get justice, let's go to the princess first, you don't have to say anything, just look at me."

Li Yufen had just woken up at this time, her big eyes were foggy, and her expression was a little confused, she was sitting in front of the dressing table, and Narcissus was helping her comb her hair. When she saw Lu Yanwan and Lu Qian coming in, she had a smile on her face, and asked the two of them, "How is it, have you packed up your things?" ”

The two walked up to Li Yufen, leaned over and saluted, and Lu Qian replied: "Fang just finished cleaning up, and I haven't even eaten, so I'll come to see you right away, princess, and I can still hear Wanwan's stomach screaming." ”

"Why don't you eat?" Li Yufen asked with some surprise.

Lu Qian didn't speak, the look on her face was a little embarrassed, Lu Yanwan immediately smiled, and said: "Actually, I'm not hungry, after dinner, I don't have much appetite, princess, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Li Yufen looked at the two of them suspiciously for a while, and said with concern: "What can I do without eating, anyway, you are all here, just eat some snacks with me." Saying this, he instructed the narcissus behind him: "You go to the imperial dining room to say hello, and say that I want to eat vegetarian yarn wonton stew, let them serve three bowls of the same, as before, the wonton filling must be made of shepherd's cabbage and pig's meat, and the shepherd's cabbage must be freshly picked from the village, and the most tender loin on the back of the pig's neck should be used in the greasy clear chicken soup; The shrimp should also be peeled out of the freshest, and the condiments on the side should not be added, just stir-fry, and the oil for stir-frying must be camellia seed oil......"

Lu Yanwan listened to Li Yufen babbling, and couldn't help but smack her tongue in her heart, this is the style of a royal princess, she is so particular about eating wontons, it seems that she is really wiped out this time, and she can eat such a luxurious wonton.

Narcissus listened to the instructions behind him, and the expression on his face became more and more ugly, but he had to nod his head, and Lu Qian glanced at Lu Yanwan very proudly.

Soon Narcissus retreated, Li Yufen stood up, and Lu Hui smiled and said: "Wait a while, the little uncle will come over, I told him that you entered the palace today, and he said that he wanted to come to see you, I asked him how he met you, he had been unwilling to say, and then I forced him to say it, do you hate my little uncle, forcing you to let you pay him to go to the workshop, he is also a dog jumping off the wall, and competing with the princess, but now the princess has also compromised, and promised to help her Zhang Luo in a few years. He's finally relieved these days. ”

"How dare the slave and maid hate the little prince, besides, the little prince is very good, he shouldn't have told you, he also saved the slave and maid when he was in the workshop, and the slave and maid have always been very grateful to him in their hearts." Lu Yanwan doesn't hate Li Wei, in general, he is actually not a bad person, at least he doesn't have the bad problems of those royal children.

Li Yufen talked to Lu Huiwan again, and Narcissus came back with wontons, in the celadon lotus-shaped porcelain bowl, there were crystal clear wontons, the center was full, the side skin was slowly stretched, and the soup was crystal clear, like a white lotus floating in the water, and a little green onion shreds were dotted like lotus leaves. Just looking at it makes people very appetizing, Lu Xi was not so hungry at night, and as soon as he smelled this fragrance, his stomach couldn't help but scream a few times.

Narcissus brought the wonton to Li Yufen, Li Yufen scooped one up and tasted it first, before beckoning Lu Yanwan and Lu Xuan, "Sit down and eat together, the wontons should be eaten while they are hot, they will not taste good when they are cold, this soup is also extremely fresh, but you have to drink it all." ”

Lu Yanwan and Lu Qian naturally didn't dare, the palace maid couldn't eat at the same table with the master, this was stipulated in the palace rules, Li Yufen was not reluctant, only ate two more, then stopped eating, and rewarded the rest of the wontons to the two of them. RS
