Chapter 168: Thunder (Part II)
Only the Lu family can prevent Qin Xiangyong from suppressing Fu Qu's so-called death.
The news of the death of the little emperor Fu Qu spread quickly, but in half a month, the three states adjacent to Yuzhou were all hung with white flags and silk silk, and they looked like they valued filial piety.
Yuzhou is close to Youzhou in the south, borders the territory in the north, borders Yongzhou in the east, and Yunzhou in the west. Changting was surprised that these two vassal kings were still very calm, and yes, there are always a few smart people in a clan, and there are always a few stupid people, just take a look at the eldest princess of Zhending, and then look at the few Fu clan vassal kings who rebelled early in the morning, you can underestimate one or two.
The days of Guangdetang passed slowly.
Changting seemed to have forgotten what she had said to Meng Tuo in this unhurried day.
But Changting knew very well in her heart that she could forget it. Wait, wait, wait for spring, wait for the summer solstice, wait, wait, wait for the breeze to blow the green plantain, and wait for the return. What would she do if he didn't come? Could she finally admit that Monto was just a passerby, not a returnee? Despite duplicity.
Changting has been in the future for a long time, and when she first came back to Wuzizhai, she was five years old, and Lu Sui was a staff member inside, and she ran around in the verandah wearing clogs. The wordless zhai in my memory is probably the orchid in the fence, the greasy beams, and the Jiankang tone dragged by the staff.
Come back now
"It's changed a lot." Changting Wen smiled and put the food box on the wooden table, the food box knocked lightly in the corner of the wooden case, Lu Changying raised his head from the stacks of messy rough paper on the table, sleepy-eyed, and saw that it was Changting in the fog, and pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled. "Gillian, why are you here?" Lu Changting poked his head and called, "Where are the hundred birds?" Come out and palm the tea. โ
The table was in a mess, with bamboo slips, rough paper, pens, and stacks of letters all stacked in one place.
Changting "tsk", rolled up his sleeves to help Lu Changying fold a stack of stacks first, "My mother asked me to come and take a look at you, I haven't been out of the word fast for three days." The eldest mother was a little worried. "Re-nunu mouth." After cooking a bowl of sugar lotus root balls, brother, you pad your stomach first, and then go back to make a good soup and change your clothes to sleep. โ
Lu Changying got up. He scooped up the handkerchief on the copper basin and wiped his face, and then avoided the side compartment to rinse his mouth, his legs and feet were already very good, and although he walked slowly, he could still walk.
Some of the letters were yellowed old. Changting was afraid that he would stack the wrong side for him, so he had to stack it with the eyes of the envelope. I didn't know that I drew a letter from the Shi family in Jizhou with a twitch in my hand, and there were four words on the envelope, and Changying opened it in person, and there was no payment. Changting saw that this should be opened, Lu Changying had a quirk in opening the letter, he didn't like to cut it with a knife and liked to bake the fire paint soft and then gently open it. If you seal it with fire paint, others will not be able to see that the envelope has been opened.
Lu Changying said this is a homework that politicians should do.
"Brother, do you still have to stamp this letter?" Changting turned his head and asked Lu Changying. "If I want to seal it, I'll put it in one place."
"Don't." Lu Changying came out of the side compartment, Baique followed him sleepily, Lu Changying opened the food box and sat at the round table to eat sugar lotus root balls, and explained to Changting, "The letter is going to be burned, so you don't need to keep it." โ
Changting let out an "oh" and asked casually, "What did the Shi family say?" Why didn't you even pay for it. โ
Lu Changying smiled, "I don't know why Meng Tuo has always disliked signing his name, so I'll ask him next time." Lu Changying scooped a sugar lotus root ball, which was as big as a small spoon, and he was really hungry after a busy night, so he took a bite into it, chewed it slowly, and looked up when he saw that the young girl's face was not very good, so he laughed, "Have you eaten breakfast?" โ
Changting nodded, feeling a little heavy when he held the letter in his hand again.
"Gillian, where do you want to send Fu Qu?" Lu Changying ate Xiang Swen, but the speed was not slow, and he put aside the bowl before talking about the incident on the letter, "It is the Fu Qu that Meng Tuo went to answer, and it will be completed in three or two days." A five-year-old Xiao Langjun, frail and weak, and his identity is embarrassing in Heisei, I think it's a little inappropriate. โ
The Fu Qu that Meng Tuo went to pick up?
Changting was stunned.
Also, General Xiao Qin knows him in and out, and even the Lu family's more faceless generals are the number one in Jiankang City. Naturally, he would hand over the matter of receiving Fu Qu to the Shi family, and after thinking about it, Shi Meng would only send Meng Tuo to do it.
In other words, Meng Tuo is coming to Heisei? Again?
Changting's hand tightened, the corners of the envelope were crumpled all of a sudden, and then he lowered his head to look at the four words, and looked at them carefully, she had to admit that no one is perfect, Meng Tuo's words are really not good-looking, Changting quickly shook his head, what was she thinking! Her porridge hasn't been cooled yet, and she has such a hot potato as Fu Qu in her hand, where did she come from to evaluate Meng Tuo's words!
"Gillian" Lu Changying called softly.
Changting immediately came back to his senses, "Naturally, it's not good to put it in Heisei." Ordinary people come and go, and it is a fortress. Once Fu Qu is exposed, the Lu family will be the target of everyone. But now that chaos is coming, if we want to release Ah Qu, he probably won't have much to do. Changting knew that she was a little incoherent, but the letter in her hand became heavier and heavier, more and more heavy, she simply didn't take it, handed it to Baique, buried her head and said, "Brother, you think about it." Now that you have saved Qu a way to live, don't let him down by giving up halfway. If it really doesn't work, it can be regarded as a good deed if it is handed over to the eldest mother to raise or passed on to the head of the Lu family. โ
Lu Changying was silent for a long time, and only after a long time did he respond.
He didn't regret leaving Fu Qu alive, of course he knew that Fu Qu's real death was more reassuring than a fake death, but he couldn't do it, no one's ambition could be filled with the lives of innocent people.
Lu Changying chattered a lot, Changting's heart was like numbness, one ear went in and one ear went out, Lu Changying called "Gillian" again, Changting raised his head suddenly, "Ah", Lu Changying smiled very shallowly, the wind was light, his tone was relieved, and he said again patiently, "Learn from the embroidery girl, our girls don't want to be more outstanding, but the fan cover can embroider, right?" Ah Xun likes to fold fans, learn it, and in the future, in addition to the ceremony, it will also make my brother's face shine, okay? โ
The long pavilion was even more stuffy.
She almost wanted to open her mouth to tell Lu Changying, but she didn't like Xie Xun, not at all. But Lu Changying's tone was so gentle, as if the heavy objects in his heart were being put down little by little, and his brother was already very tired. If she messes up, let her take care of it alone. The person she likes, let her face it alone.
Even more stuffy than the pavilion is the weather in June in the Northland.
Heisei was so stuffy that the sky was like a pot lid, steaming all the dense heat in the inner city.
"Please, it will rain quickly on this day." Hu Yuniang lay on the edge of the window lattice with her eyes closed, her hands folded, and she was extremely pious, "If it continues to be so boring, the taste of pickles made by the old lady will be suffocated." โ
The long pavilion limped at his feet.
God don't care about your new pickles!
I don't know how useful Hu Yuniang's pickled pickles for rain method worked, or what everyone wants, nearly dusk there were two muffled thunder "booms" in the sky, followed by a pouring rain, the heavy rain came too fiercely, the sky suddenly overcast, dusk turned into dusk, the little maid coral exclaimed, "Ouch!" The clothes hanging on the back porch have not been confiscated! Changting laughed, leaned out to cover the window, and when he looked up, he saw someone standing upright beside the banana leaves in dark blue in the midst of the rainstorm and wind.
The rain big plantain crackled.
The green tiles and white walls, but the bamboo forests and grasses are not seen in the distant mountains.
The visitor was soaked, his chest was heaving, his hands were propped up on the banana leaves, his eyes were like the light of a wolf in the night, the heavy rain fell on him, his back was a little hunched, his clothes were wet and clinging to his body, and he stood there in mud, stubbornly looking at the long pavilion.
Changting's hand hung down suddenly, smashing on the frame of the window lattice, and he woke up naturally after the pain.
Changting was trembling all over, she slammed the window lattice and leaned against the window to take a few breaths, suddenly as if she remembered something, Ma Li got off the kang and jumped on the clogs, propped up on the wooden table, took a deep breath and ran out quickly, Man Xiu dragged the Changting back, stuffed the umbrella in Changting's arms, and said softly, "Girl, we didn't see it either!" โ
Changting took a deep look at Man Xiu, and saw himself at a loss from Man Xiu's pupils, Changting nodded heavily to himself, picked up the umbrella and ran out.
Turning the verandah, stepping on small pebbles, the pavilion flicked the branches in front of him to the side.
The rain was so heavy, it was smashed down densely, Changting's clogs slipped, and he climbed the pillar indiscriminately, Changting felt that his whole body was shaking, buried his head in the corners of his clothes, and then slowly held up the umbrella, she saw Meng Tuo's appearance through the overwhelming rain, Meng Tuo's mouth was tightly pursed, his hair was wet, and he was tightly attached to his cheeks.
The angular Meng Tuo, the dull and silent Meng Tuo, and the Meng Tuo who doesn't say anything
"Don't come unharmed"
Changting slowly raised her head, she was very close to Meng Tuo, as if she could see the light in Meng Tuo's eyes as soon as she raised her head, such an umbrella could not cover such a heavy rain at all, Changting could probably imagine his wolf bรจi, Changting held the umbrella handle tightly, she tilted her head to look at Meng Tuo, her face was cold, I don't know if it was rain or tears.
"Don't come unharmed." Meng Tuo shook his throat and replied softly.
Changting wiped her face, her feet trembling, but she knew she had to get her words out.
"I'm married, thank you. I know it's a shame for me to say such things now, but I must say, please don't interrupt me. โ
Changting raised his head and choked up, "Meng Tuo, I like you." From Youzhou, from Jizhou, from Qingye Town, I have always been happy with you. Maybe one day I will understand that life is no different without you. But now I just understand, I want to tell you that I like you, I like you very much. โ
A thunderclap.
Bang. (To be continued) I580
