Chapter 108: Could It Be Him?
The matter of Luo Yuan's departure from the house passed like this, and I don't know if Luo Qi didn't know or ignored it, anyway, he didn't talk about it.
After Lu Xue returned home, as soon as he heard that he had returned, he hurriedly ran to his yard and scolded him, of course, only Lu Xue was excited, and Luo Yuan was still unmoved.
Jasmine wasn't in Luo's Mansion these days, because of the appearance of the bat mask, which evoked memories that she had deliberately forgotten. Under the persuasion of Ji Ying and the others, she decided to start investigating the extermination of the clan that year.
Without the jasmine flower, the low pressure around Luo Qi has never dissipated, Lu Xue saw that she was in a bad mood and lacked interest, so she deliberately inquired about some interesting things.
"Yiyi, do you know that Uncle Wang of Dongjie is the one who tells stories in the teahouse."
I don't know why, why did you suddenly mention him? But she still nodded in agreement, "You know, he is telling stories with a wooden sword every time, as if to ward off evil spirits." ”
Lu Xue laughed, "Yes, yes, yes, it's him!" Let me tell you, a few days ago, he really went to ward off evil spirits. ”
"What? Are you sure? Does he really do? Yiyi asked with some suspicion.
Lu Xue smiled and said mysteriously: "Guess what?" ”
Seeing Yiyi shaking her head blankly, she said: "As a result, when he pretended to be Xuanxuan and cast a spell, the maid of that family happened to sneeze, and he was scared to pee hahahahahaha......"
Yiyi couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
Lu Xue smiled and glanced at the desk, and saw that the woman was also looking at the paperwork as if she had just buried her head, as if she hadn't heard the big movement here, she gradually stopped laughing.
It must be this bad, so she will change another one.
"Yiyi, didn't Miss Li secretly make a hydrangea throwing to recruit a husband yesterday? The hydrangea was snatched by everyone, but it happened that an old beggar passed by with a broken bowl, and the hydrangea happened to fall into the beggar's arms. ”
"Huh? Then, is Miss Li really going to marry an old beggar? ”
"Of course not, how can this be, in the end, it was Li Shilang who came forward and apologized to everyone before it was over."
After Lu Xue finished speaking, she looked in the direction of Luo Qi again, and seeing that she was still unmoved, Lu Xue sighed secretly in her heart.
She misses Sister Jasmine now, if she is here, she won't have to worry so much.
Here, Luo Qi saw that the laughter in the room had stopped, so she looked up and happened to see Lu Xue's sad little expression.
She said lightly: "Why don't you say it?" ”
Hearing this, Lu Xue walked over with a wrinkled face, glanced at the woman, and asked cautiously, "Sister Qi, are you troubled?" ”
Luo Qi put down the pen in his hand, leaned back, leaned on the armchair, and raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him, "Huh? How so? ”
"I haven't seen you smile in the past few days, always burying your head in official business, how can there be so many things to deal with......"
The corners of Luo Qi's mouth pulled out a light smile, "Do you think it's too boring to stay here, if you feel bored, let Yiyi accompany you out of the house to go shopping." ”
When Lu Xue heard this, she immediately shook her head and denied: "No, I didn't feel bored. ”
She just felt that the master shouldn't be like this.
Luo Qi no longer dwelled on this topic, but asked about his younger brother's situation, "How is Xiao Yuan doing recently?" ”
"He's very good, with me, he must have been raised well, and now I don't know how energetic he is!" Talking about this, Lu Xue looked proud.
Luo Qi looked at her with heavy eyes, and after a long while, he said lightly: "Xiaoxue, don't run to Qingge's side recently, go to Xiaoyuan's place more, show him to me, and don't let him contact people and things outside as much as possible." ”
Lu Xue heard her slightly solemn tone, thought for a while, and then nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll keep an eye on him, I won't leave him an inch, and I will never let him run out." ”
She didn't know what would happen next, but looking at her master's solemn expression, she guessed that maybe what would happen next would be more complicated.
She just did what her master told her to do.
……
Since Luo Yuan came back from the Tea Hall that day, he no longer went out, but obediently stayed in his courtyard, and even Qingge rarely went.
At this moment, he was leisurely watering the flowers and plants in the courtyard with a water scoop, and Eleven followed behind him with a wooden bucket filled with water, and the sun shone on the freshly watered flowers and plants to look vibrant.
Soon, the barrel bottomed out, and the boy put the water scoop back into the bucket, "Put it back, it's enough, don't mention it again." ”
Eleven answered, and then left with the empty barrel.
At this time, there was a sudden eagle roar in the air, and the young man did not raise his head, but the two lips opened slightly, and he called softly, "Prison!" ”
As soon as the young man finished speaking, a sound of spreading his wings came from the air, gradually approaching, and finally stopped on the low steps under the eaves.
Luo Yuan walked towards it, and when he saw the young man coming, the eagle consciously stretched out his left paw, and a small roll of paper was tied to it.
Luo Yuan took the small paper, opened it and glanced at it casually, and then tore it directly.
The whole set of movements is very natural, as if it has been done many times, without any mud and water.
He said "boring" to himself, and turned back into the house.
After he had taken the letter, the eagle spread its wings and flew away.
When Eleven returned, he saw the boy lying on the desk casually, his hands moving as if he was graffiti.
Soon, he stopped what he was doing, there was still a little ink on the paper that had not dried, he gently picked it up, blew it on the undried place, and then handed it in the direction where Eleven was standing.
"Eleven, send it to the Tea Hall."
Eleven took it, and he glanced at it, and the paper was drawn of an eagle with broken wings, and nothing else.
"This, go now?"
"Hmmm! Anyway, I'm idle now, and there's nothing going on here. ”
He drew this picture just to warn them, and to show the old man his determination by the way, it seems that Yu Niang should also pass on the message to the old man.
It depends on whether the old man follows him this time, or whether both sides are cut off......
……
In the study of Yuan's mansion, Yuan Kai listened to the words from his subordinates, and was slightly distracted.
"General, Dongying is the last batch, half of the Dongying Chifeng Army has been disarmed, and there are only 100 brave troops left, presumably this matter can be completed within three days."
The words fell, and there was no reply for a long time, and the little general saw that he had a cold face without saying a word, and he didn't dare to speak casually.
After a long time, the man said, "Got it, step down!" ”
Yuan Kai didn't pay attention to when he left, but pondered what he had just said.
Is it done in three days? It took half a month to complete the important task entrusted by His Majesty, which is inevitably not credible, but it is true.
Is he the one who is helping him behind his back?
