Chapter 60: The Day of the General Election
()
Things in the world are so coincidental, and the day of Si Tianjian's carefully selected draft is also set for the ninth day of the sixth month.
Although the Hou Mansion knew His Majesty's intentions from top to bottom, and was very sure that Miss Luoyan's result would not be bad, the Zhou family still worshiped the gods and Buddhas of the heavens sincerely, and blessed Miss Luoyan with all things going smoothly and getting ahead
Before dawn, Mrs. Hou Zhou took a group of people to wait for Biqing Courtyard, bathing, combing her hair, putting on makeup, and changing clothes for Luo Yan, and tossed for two hours before Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and said that it was done.
Looking at the newly dressed Luo Yan, the Zhou family felt sincerely, the fairy concubine and fairy sung in the play are nothing more than that, no wonder His Majesty the Southern Emperor is so valued.
Although she doesn't often go to Biqing Courtyard, as the head of the Hou Mansion, nothing can hide from her ears and eyes, not to mention that His Majesty's attitude is simply eager to let everyone know
An emperor who sits on the world, if he takes a fancy to any woman, he can bring it back to the palace directly. Where is like this, I would rather work hard every day, but also meticulously follow the etiquette process, just to give her a proper name.
Not only that, but I have to coax every day, and I am always intimate and petted, for fear that one will not be satisfied, and the one in Biqing Courtyard suddenly said, "This girl is not happy, I won't go"
A show girl who has not yet entered the palace has been valued to such an extent by His Majesty the Southern Emperor, and what is there to be dissatisfied with, so the Zhou family has always been very puzzled, why Luo Yan's attitude towards His Majesty is always so lukewarm, but His Majesty is not the slightest unhappy with this attitude. Is it really like people say, the more you can't get it, the more important it is?
Zhou looked at Luo Yan, who was lacking in interest, and couldn't help but persuade with kind words: "His Majesty the Southern Emperor is now lonely in the harem, and there is no one around, so there will never be such a good time again." Luo Yan has a unique appearance, and you are valued by His Majesty, and you can get a lifetime of glory and wealth at your fingertips."
"Besides, Your Majesty is young and promising, and he is a talent, a man occupies a position of power, talent and appearance, see all over this Nanqian, is there a better lover than this?"
Luo Yan knew that this was Zhou's heartfelt words, and it was also the opinion of many people, she nodded and smiled at Zhou's to show that she understood, but she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, did she really want to enter the palace like this
She's just no memory, and she's not a fool
Except for the days when she just woke up, when she was full of panic and did not have time to look around her, in the days that followed, her doubts became more and more in her heart.
For example, her pair of smooth and white hands are pampered without a single flaw; For example, her profound chapter cursive calligraphy has obviously been instructed by famous masters for many years; Another example is her dietary preferences that are incompatible with others, but she prefers braised sweet and sour short ribs that everyone likes.
Is she really a helpless country woman, did someone lie to her, was it Lian Jing?
Especially the attitude of His Majesty the Southern Emperor made her think about it a lot. They didn't have a very memorable experience together, but they deliberately flattered themselves from the first time they met. He is an emperor, what kind of woman does he want, I am afraid that he can find anyone who is more considerate and sensible than her, but he sticks to himself regardless of his identity.
He accommodates and pampers in every way, he is too good to himself, and the good ones make people suspicious, and she never believes that there will be no reason in this world
Good
Luo Yan sighed in her heart, these doubts can only be put in her heart, so many people look at her, she can't help but say "no" willfully.
Luo Yan, who was full of depression, got into the carriage into the palace like this, and Mama Liu and the little girl who were accompanying her looked nervous. kept telling her to be modest, sweet in her mouth, and generous in her hands; The other kept asking if it was true that the tiles of the palace were made of gold, that the pools in the palace were filled with fine wine, and that even rats were dressed in brocade
Luo Yan was so annoyed that she simply closed her eyes, she would rather listen to the sound of the horse's hooves falling on the bluestone pavement.
After walking like this for a long time, none of the three masters and servants noticed that from the time they got into the carriage and set off, they were taking the opposite road to the palace, and the servants who had been with them had long since disappeared. It wasn't until I was out of the city, the surroundings were getting quieter and quieter, and the carriage was running faster and faster, that I realized that something was wrong.
The first to react was Luo Yan, she lifted the curtain of the car, and the sight was the woods that were flying by, and she was suddenly shocked in her heart, and a very bad premonition hit her heart. She hurried to call the coachman, but no matter how much she shouted, the coachman seemed to be unable to hear, and drove the carriage forward at a faster pace.
Such a strange situation made Mama Liu panicked, she climbed out of the carriage with her hands and feet to try to distinguish with the coachman, but was kicked down by the coachman, rolled a few times and fell on a big stone on the side of the road, and was silent.
This scene was too sudden, Luo Yan and the little girl stared at each other, and before they even had time to scream and cry, Mama Liu had already disappeared into the dust raised by the horse's hooves.
In the carriage, the trembling little girl hugged Luo Yan and cried, but she still didn't forget to comfort: "Girl, I will protect you with great strength."
Luo Yan pushed the little girl aside, there were some things that she knew she couldn't do but wanted to do it, she didn't have time to grieve the sudden tragic death of Mama Liu, she didn't have time to discern what happened, she didn't have time to think about what would happen if she missed a blow, she just wanted the car to stop, stop immediately
At this time, her face was pale, tears were stored in her eyes but she couldn't fall, she trembled and pulled off all the hairpins on her head, and chose the thickest and strongest one to hold tightly in her hand.
She stared intently at the coachman in front of her, at his swarthy and thick neck, exposed by the collar. No one had ever told her that there was an artery here, which was the vital lifeblood of a person, but she knew very well that as long as she was ruthless and accurate enough, stabbing from here would make people splash blood and kill instantly
Luo Yan held her breath, moved forward little by little, and when she got close enough, the slender jade hand gently tapped a few times on the coachman's right shoulder, and the coachman instinctively looked back, but was stabbed into the neck by the sudden golden hairpin, and blood sprayed out instantly, and even a complete "ah" fell straight down the carriage before she could utter a complete "ah", and soon disappeared into the dust raised by the horse's hooves.
This was Luo Yan's first killing, and after a long time, she could still feel that the blood sprayed on her face was warm and sticky. She held the golden hairpin in a daze, and finally shed tears. The little girl was already frightened and fainted,
Without the coachman's whip, the horse slowed down, and the cart finally stopped.
Luo Yan came back to her senses and wiped her face with the hem of her skirt at will, but it was not clean, and the blood stained her face, where did she still have the demeanor of a peerless beauty at this time, and she was embarrassed and more like a blood Shura who had escaped from hell.
She woke up the little girl, and by the way, she covered her mouth that screamed, indicating that she was not safe here, and they needed to return to the city as soon as possible, as for why such a change happened, it was not something that could be considered now.
However, the master and servant looked at the carriage, and then looked at the desolate Siye and were worried, they did not know how far it was from the city, and they did not even know how to return to the city.
Luo Yan asked, "Will you catch a car?"
The little girl shook her head.
Luo Yan asked again, "Then do you know how to ride a horse?"
The little girl shook her head again.
Luo Yan made up his mind after a little thought, and then asked, "You can choose one for a car or a horse."
The little girl is still stupid, but because she has just experienced life and death, she doesn't want to ride in a carriage anymore in her life, so she chose to ride a horse without hesitation.
Luo Yan's heart was crossed, so he went to untie the harness on the horse, led the horse to the frame, and said to the little girl: "Come, I'll help you get on the horse."
The little girl reacted in horror, "Girl, you can ride a horse"
In order to appease the little girl, Luo Yan said a very indifferent "um", and then he also got on the horse by the frame.
This is a horse pulling the cart, and there is no saddle, it is very uncomfortable to sit on it, and it is not stable, Luo Yan told the little girl to hold her tightly, so she took a deep breath, gently pulled the reins and set off.
The horse trotted unhurriedly, Luo Yan has been cautious, she was secretly glad that the horse was docile, and she was secretly proud that she was a genius who rode a horse, but the next moment in the dust, a sharp arrow hit the sky, and the little girl sitting behind her fell in response.
This is the third person who died in front of Luo Yan today, one was killed by her own hands, and the other two are the only people in this world who depend on her life, if she was just frightened and helpless just now, then she was full of anger She is just an orphan girl from the countryside, who has such a great hatred with her, and lays a net just to take her life
Originally, Luo Yan didn't care so much about her life, but at this moment, she didn't want to die so inexplicably, and she didn't want the black hand behind the scenes to laugh at her proudly and rampantly
All of this made her have a strong fighting spirit, and she wants me to die, okay, come on, I just want to live a good life to show you that no matter who you are, I am not afraid
She took out the blood-stained golden hairpin from her bosom and stabbed it hard at the horse, and the horse, which had suffered severe pain, ran forward like a frenzy, and the sharp arrows behind her whistled past her ears, and I don't know which one would penetrate her chest.
Luo Yan knew that on this wide avenue, her single horse goal was too obvious, so she turned into a tree-lined path, and walked into the depths of the forest, she quickly dismounted and stabbed the horse hard, the horse was in pain and neighed while running forward wildly, Luo Yan got into the dense forest and soon disappeared.
This dense forest black crow is bottomless.
