Chapter 227: Uprooted and Never Returned
Hunting in the cold wind outside the mansion of the Duke of Lu, the girl trembled with her arms around her chest. From time to time, I glanced at the closed side door, and waited for a long time for no one to appear. Subconsciously reached out and touched the shriveled purse, but still dispelled the idea of leaving.
didn't wait for someone to appear in the house for a long time, Ren Yan sat outside the side door with her legs crossed. Gently closed his eyes, thinking about the young swordsman who would leave without saying goodbye, his heart was worried, and he couldn't do anything. In that year, he broke into the palace and followed Liu Zhixing to leave Xuzhou without going to Qingzhou and returned to Shandong. He lived in Shandong for nearly two years, until half a year ago, when Wen Xiaoming had a big quarrel with his father. When Wen Xiaoming said goodbye, he learned that his father disliked Wen Xiaoming's way of making money except for swordsmanship.
It's not that his father looks down on Wen Xiaoming, but his father is afraid that with such a big family business, there is no way to make money, and sooner or later he will exhaust his family wealth.
I fell asleep and didn't know how long it had been. A warm palm appeared on the cold cheek, and Ren Yan's ears came: "Miss Ren, Miss Ren wake up, wake up." ”
Shivering all over, arms stiff. In the gentle voice, Ren Yan opened her eyes and looked at the familiar face, not knowing what to say for a while. The woman who appeared in front of her looked nervous, and hurriedly pulled up Ren Yan, who was sitting on the ground.
The person who came was Wu Jin, Ren Yan hugged nervously and said, "Sister-in-law, he is gone again, I have been looking for him for a long time, a long time." ”
The cold qi on his body spread to Wu Jin, and Ren Yan trembled. At this moment, it was as if the grievances of half a year had poured out, and a drop of tears fell. Wu Jin patted his back lightly and said, "You will definitely be able to find it, sister-in-law will help you find it." I don't believe that a living person can run anywhere, let's go back to the house first, it's cold outside. ”
Wu Jinjiang wrapped Ren Yan tightly around the cloak on his body, and walked very slowly into the inner courtyard. Only then did he walk into the wing room, and saw Liu Zhiming, the eldest son who was both civil and military, limping and directing the servants to clean up the wing, and the two maids were boiling hot water.
Liu Zhiming saw Ren Yan coming and said with a smile: "Miss Ren go into the house first, take a hot bath and sleep well." ”
Approaching Ren Yan, she clearly saw that the once majestic and heroic eldest son of the Liu family had weakened a lot. Ren Yan frowned and asked, "Brother Liu, ..... you?"
looked at the limping leg and said, "I've been used to it for more than two years, and I'm scared of Miss Ren." I couldn't help but pat my calf, as if to say: You see I'm fine, don't worry about Miss Ren.
was pushed into the room by Wu Jin, and only with the help of the maid did he take off his cold clothes. Seeing the maid busy heating the water in the bathtub, Ren Yan was about to take a bath Wu Jin said: "It's not too late to warm up for a while and then wash, now that the body is cold, let's eat something hot first." ”
There is nothing good to eat late at night, just simple hot porridge and pastries. Ren Yan took the pastry and devoured it, and it looked like she hadn't eaten for a long time. Wu Jin smiled and said, "Eat slowly, there's more!" ”
Ren Yan grinned and said, "It's delicious, I haven't eaten such a delicious pastry for a long time." ”
Seeing that the girl was not as depressed as before, Wu Jin pushed the brazier forward after adding porridge to her. Seeing Ren Yan grinning, she touched her bulging belly and said, "Eliminate food and take a hot bath to relieve fatigue."
and get a good night's sleep."
Sitting in the bathtub, Ren Yan asked, "Sister-in-law, did you say Xiao Ming, did he hate me before he ran away." The word "escape" Ren Yan lowered her head as she spoke, who could understand the sourness in her heart. The husband who was in love at first sight has never been married. Although some fathers dislike financial management that Wen Xiaoming doesn't understand, more importantly, Erniang proposed to get married.
Wu Jin personally poured warm water on Ren Yan and said, "What a good girl we are Ren Yan, Wen Xiaoming will like it even if he is a fool." There must be something else, Wen Shaoxia is not a person who is deliberately angry. ”
Speaking of this, Ren Yan leaned on the edge of the bathtub and said, "Is my sister-in-law real?" But Xiao Ming left because Erniang proposed to get married. ”
gently patted Ren Yan's little head and said, "Silly girl, you have to trust your husband." There must be something else, to believe in yourself. To what you just said, Wen Shaoxia Yida Grandmaster Mirror, if he didn't deliberately reveal his whereabouts, who would be able to find it. ”
Ren Yan, who suddenly smiled, said, "That's right! Sister-in-law Yulian, is Sister Yulian still living in the house now? I heard Xiao Ming say that the emperor left the palace after his death. Xiao Ming listened to Sister Yulian's words the most, and this time he had to let Sister Yulian teach him a lesson. ”
Suddenly I didn't know how to answer Ren Yan's words, especially when I thought of something I didn't dare to think of. If Wen Xiaoming came to Taiping City as Ren Yan said, there were so many places that were most likely to be obtained, and Wen Xiaoming would inevitably go to the Peach Blossom Building that was renamed.
After cleaning Ren Yan, Wu Jin looked at the girl who opened her heart, smiled slightly and said, "Miss Ren go to bed early, I think Wen Shaoxia will be there." ”
Ren Yan, who was dressed and about to fall asleep, immediately became energetic, and was about to speak when Wu Jin interrupted: "Miss Ren, go to bed early, and tomorrow sister-in-law will take you to find Wen Shaoxia." Closing the door with a smile, Wu Jin's face changed suddenly.
The footsteps were very fast, and when I arrived at the bedroom, I hurriedly pushed the door and entered. Seeing that Liu Zhiming had fallen asleep, Wu Jin still pushed hard with a slight snoring. The groggy Liu Zhiming turned over and asked impatiently, "What's wrong." ”
Wu Jin said anxiously in his heart: "Wen Xiaoming has arrived in Taiping City. ”
Hearing Wen Xiaoming's name, Liu Zhiming didn't feel surprised, ignored Wu Jin's anxious appearance, turned over and closed his eyes again and said impatiently: "Come on, come here, Taiping City doesn't know that there are thousands of people in and out every day, and it's nothing." ”
Liu Zhiming didn't care, but it made Wu Jin even more irritable, twisting Liu Zhiming's waist and shouting, "Have you forgotten?" Sister Yulian is now His Majesty's Jade Guifei, do you still remember what Hongyi said when she came to the mansion two months ago? What would Wen Xiaoming do if he knew how Sister Yulian entered the palace, and what would he do now if he didn't dare to enter the palace alone before he was a grandmaster mirror. ”
Hearing Wu Jin's words, Liu Zhiming immediately sat up and immediately said, "If you don't say it earlier, go and get my official uniform." ”
I don't know what Liu Zhiming is going to do, and I don't need to know. Wu Jin will help her husband prepare everything, some things are enough for women to worry about, if everything needs men to worry about, how can the Liu family gain a foothold in Daliang. Saying that, he helped his husband get dressed neatly
, and then asked, "Why are you going at night?" ”
Liu Zhi straightened his clothes before saying: "Now there are still two hours until the last dynasty, I will go to the palace first and tell Your Majesty the news." ”
Gently pushed Liu Zhiming onto the bed and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, entering the palace now will alarm the forbidden army." Wen Shaoxia is still a wanted criminal in the imperial court, and it will only backfire to rush into the palace like this. Besides, Wen Shaoxia may not break into the palace. ”
After calming down and thinking about it carefully, Liu Zhiming breathed a sigh of relief and figured out the joints. Since Ren Yan followed Wen Xiaoming to Taiping City, she would definitely not take risks. I still have to go to see Wen Xiaoming, if I still want to break into the palace, it is the best way to stop it.

Qinglin Palace was extremely silent after the heavy snowfall, Emperor Xiao Yin did not arrive tonight, Yulian sat next to the double bird qin and watched an ancient song. This is a piece made up by a folk musician of the Great Qin two hundred years ago, and the score was lost to the world after the fall of the first Qin. Concubine Yi got it by chance before entering the palace, and she still practiced it for many years. I also found some musicians at home, and I could only play pieces that had not been perfected.
At today's banquet, I heard that Yulian has a very high attainment in music, and when I talked about it in Qinglin Palace, I was obsessed with this "Langlang on the Clouds". It's a pity that the missing parts can't make the whole piece coherent. After Concubine Yi returned to the palace, she sent someone to send the incomplete score to Qinglin Palace, and Yulian watched this "Langlang on the Clouds", which integrates folk music and rhythm, into her heart.
The sound of the piano continued, and from time to time the sound of the piano was cut off for a long time.
Late at night, many maids in Qinglin Palace had already fallen asleep early, and only the personal palace maids dozed aside. The young palace maid suddenly woke up with a heavy head. It seems to have been a long time since I found that the concubine was still staring intently at the score.
said: "It's not too early, it's time to go to bed." ”
Yulian looked at the hour and said, "You go to sleep first, and the palace will look at it for a while." Ignoring the palace maid, she still looked at the score intently. It's been a long time since I've seen such a subtle piece, but it's just a remnant.
Seeing that the palace maid still had the intention of leaving, Yulian still put down the score and said, "Okay, I'll debug it tomorrow." With that, he got up and went back to the dormitory, lying on the bed and gently stroking his stomach. I'm also about to become a mother.,I don't know if it's a boy or a girl.。
Yulian thought in her heart, it was better to be a girl, and the royal struggle had never been broken in every dynasty. I personally experienced the struggle between Emperor Xiao Yin and King Xiao Kun of Qi, and I was really tired of this life-and-death power struggle. If you are a princess, you don't need to stare at the throne, and you don't have to worry about it every day.
Said softly: "Baby, you have to grow up quickly, and then be born, and then be kissed by this mother." ”
Gently closing his eyes, he suddenly remembered the red clothes. If it was Hongyi today, he would definitely not urge the invasion, and would say beside him: "Sister doesn't seem to be like this in this paragraph, you can see if it would be better to try it like this." ”
Lying in the quilt, Yulian suddenly remembered the scenes in the past. suddenly remembered which younger brother Wen Xiaoming was far away in Shandong, and I don't know if he is married to Ren Yan now. Thinking of this, Yulian has some
I miss my younger brother Wen Xiaoming, and the last time we saw each other was three years ago. In that environment, not a few words were said at all.
Wen Xiaoming broke into the palace and fell into a crisis, and he didn't have time to think about anything else. Especially after the appearance of Xu Dian, the commander of the forbidden army, there was chaos, and Yulian is still afraid when she thinks about it.
Close your eyes and shake your head gently, and fall down to worry about it. "Langlang on the Clouds" appeared again in my mind.
————
A jar of wine in the peach blossoms was not drunk, and Wen Xiaoming stared at the red clothes with a hideous face. Lu Xiaozhao stared at Wen Xiaoming, really afraid that this young grandmaster would do something out of the ordinary. This atmosphere has been stalemate for a long time, if it weren't for the fact that Hongyi had been holding Wen Xiaoming's arm, Lu Xiaozhao could be sure in his heart that Wen Xiaoming was already on his way to the palace at this time.
Suddenly, Wen Xiaoming slapped the table again, and the red clothes were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated. Hongyi hurriedly said: "Xiao Ming, don't be impulsive, if my sister is here, I don't want to see you like this." ”
Lu Xiaozhao was ready to be beaten, but saw Wen Xiaoming slowly get up and said, "I know, I won't be as impulsive as I was back then." Xiao Zhao gave me clean clothes, which was very uncomfortable. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the red clothes said: "I'll rest assured if you don't go to the palace, I'll find you a clean dress." ”
