The carved window lattices shone with the light of the rising sun, and the vast and majestic court music seemed to praise the supreme sublime artistic conception. Under the gaze of countless eyes, the former monarch Meng Chang knelt down on the carpet of the wide hall, fell to the ground, and bowed again and again, "The crime of death of the minister, only the elder kneels to His Royal Highness, and begs the Queen Mother for forgiveness......."

"The Queen Mother gave her grace and gave Meng Chang, the Duke of Qin." A eunuch's voice rang out for a long time.

…… After a long time, in a clear palace room, Fu Jinzhan was slowly pacing between the palaces, holding a stack of letters in her hand to read carefully, and her long skirt dragging on the floor did not care. She covered her mouth and chuckled from time to time, and from time to time she looked coquettish.

At this time, Guo Shao, who was wearing a military uniform, entered and bowed with his fists: "The minister greets the Queen Mother." ”

On Fu Jinzhan white and jade-like face, a pair of crooked eyes suddenly showed a smile, and he turned around and said, "Isn't Qin Guogong (Meng Chang) very deferential?" ”

"The Queen Mother has a way to be a royal person." Guo Shao straightened up and smiled.

Fu Jinzhan sat down on the upholstered chair, gently brushed off his long sleeves, and said: "If he is still in Shu Kingdom, he will not be so respectful and plead, he has to be caught in Tokyo before he can do it...... Speaking of which, his father Meng Zhixiang established a foundation and can be called a hero in troubled times; He himself was not a dumb king before, otherwise he would not have been able to take over the throne of the king. ”

"What the Queen Mother said is extremely true, no matter what, Meng Chang is a person who has been a monarch for many years after all." Guo Shao said, "Such a high-ranking person, seeing him kneeling at the feet of the Queen Mother, I can't say how happy I am." ”

"Oh?" Fu Jinzhan looked at Guo Shao's face with interest with a smile.

Guo Shao said in a low voice: "I just want to see Marigold Shunxin, I like to see you laugh." His voice grew deeper and deeper, as if to say, "I am also wondering what a woman like Marigold wants...... Honorable status, privileged environment, you have to feel safe, not afraid, and someone who can't help but spoil you from the bottom of your heart. The greatest pleasure I get from everything I've done is to see Marigold smile like this......"

Fu Jinzhan listened attentively, although his demeanor remained dignified, his face became redder and redder, his eyes flickered, and his chest rose and fell slightly. She wore a loose dress, but it was thin in the middle of summer, and the soft material hung down from her high breasts, trembling slightly with her breath. The skirt that was too soft also stuck to her legs, and her tightly pressed legs could not hide the contours of her legs, and she sat as if she were wearing pants.

"General Guo come here, I have something to say to you." Fu Jinzhan's tactful voice and words were very natural, as if he was trying to maintain his current uprightness.

Guo Shao took a few steps forward and walked over with his ear.

Fu Jinzhan owed, and said softly in a suppressed voice: "I want you now, right away." ”

……

Just after noon, Guo Shao walked out of the imperial city and got into a carriage, he felt very tired. Last night's unbridled indulgence at home was not as good as this morning's short hour.

"Big brother, it's only noon, where are we going?" Luo Mengzi's voice said.

Guo Shao was reluctant to think about what to do, he indulged in the current relaxation. As soon as I returned to Tokyo, I naturally didn't have to ask about business, and even ordinary soldiers rested. However, Luo Mengzi's voice reminded Guo Shao...... Lu Xiaoniang came from Kuizhou to Tokyo, and Luo Mengzi led the troops to escort her.

Maybe at some point, such as when he was sick and was taken care of by Lu Xiaoniang, Guo Shao liked this little lady; But thinking of her now, Guo Shao is indeed just thinking about her treating Wang Pu thousands of miles away, because now Guo Shao's senses are close to that of a saint, and it is estimated that it is difficult for a woman to arouse his interest at this time, it is too full.

"Third brother, you get in the carriage, I have something to ask you." Guo Shao said.

The carriage stopped on the side of the street for a while, and when Luo Mengzi got into the car, his body was too fat and strong, and he actually broke a piece of the carved wood of the car door. Guo Shao didn't care, and said, "Go find Lu Xiaoniang, you show the way to the horseman." Where is she now? ”

Luo Mengzi said: "Live in the inn." ”

Guo Shao frowned and said, "She cured the Great Zhou Privy Envoy, and Wang Pu's life is very important. Why is it so badly treated? ”

"Wang Pu's old and young...... Wang's privy envoy wanted Lu Xiaoniang to live in the mansion, but she was unwilling. Luo Mengzi said, "I asked her to go to my house to live with 'Tofu Shih', what she said, I am afraid that I can't tell if I live in my house." Exercise! Will I still move my eldest brother's woman? ”

"She's not my woman." Guo Shaodao, stretched out his hand to touch his body, and asked, "Is there any money on the third brother?" ”

Luo Mengzi took out more than a dozen copper coins. Guo Shao said unhappily: "That's it, didn't I reward you with a lot of money?" ”

Luo Mengzi said helplessly: "Tofu Xi Shi took all the money, she said that she was afraid that I would go to the Qinglou to prostitute myself." ”

"I obeyed you." Guo Shao shook his head.

The carriage walked for a long time, stopped at an inn, Guo Shao followed Luo Mengzi in, and recognized at a glance that there were two swaying men in the corridor as his personal soldiers, and couldn't help but praise: "The third brother is getting more and more reliable...... By the way, come to me when you want to spend money. ”

…… When Lu Lan opened the door, she saw a group of warriors in armor standing at the door, but she was not afraid, she had already seen Guo Shao in the crack of the door. However, Lu Lan is relatively petite, and when she stands in front of Guo Shao, she has to raise her head to see his face, and she is still a little stressed in her heart.

"Come in and talk, don't close the door." She said.

In fact, when the forbidden army returned to Beijing yesterday, she went to the side of the road to see Guo Shao, and thought that he would come to find her that day, but she didn't want to say anything. glanced at his tired face, and estimated that he would be busy after returning to Beijing.

Guo Shao hugged his fists and said: "I have to thank Lu Niangzi for helping, Wang Yuanjun's illness, even the imperial doctor can't do anything, admire and admire!" ”

At this time, in a not very high-end inn, the lacquer on the chairs was faded, and there was still dirt in the cracks of the wood. However, Lu Lan has never lived in any expensive places, and the inns in Tokyo are relatively quiet, so she thinks it's not bad.

"General Guo, please take a seat." Lu Lan poured him tea, and there was a gap in the teacup, but it didn't affect the content. She felt that this was polite enough, and she usually treated people like this.

However, as soon as Guo Shao came, Lu Lan was still a lot more relieved. At this time, she was very uneasy to live alone in this unfamiliar foreign country, and she didn't want to stay here.

She also sat down on the chair next to the coffee table, "General Guo doesn't need to thank me, did the third aunt find that person?" ”

Guo Shao hurriedly said: "I found it, my name is Li Liangyou, and now I am Wang Zhaoyuan's son-in-law." Li Liangyou and your third aunt reunited after breaking the mirror, and let Wang Zhaoyuan's daughter be a concubine, and now the family is reunited, in Chengdu Mansion. ”

When Lu Lan heard this, she said softly: "I think that Li Liangyou is unreliable, but the third aunt is looking for him with all her heart, and she can finally untie the knot...... That's fine. ”

But for a while, Lu Lan immediately thought: Then where am I going? My father has passed away, and the Bai family is only the closest to the third aunt, and I can't go to live with the third aunt to live in Li Liangyou's house...... Only when he returned to Wushan, the Bai family was a relative of his maternal uncle's family.

She glanced at Guo Shao, held an inexplicable breath in her heart, and said: "My business is done, I have no relatives and no reason in Tokyo, you can send someone to send me back." ”

Guo Shao pondered for a moment, picked up the teacup and took a sip. This kind of cold field is gradually becoming a little embarrassing.

After a while, Guo Shao said cautiously: "When I was in Zhuozhou, the Lu family entertained me, and I and Doctor Lu are also acquaintances. Lu Niangzi has no place to stay in Tokyo now, so I can treat you with reason, so it is better to come to my house for a while, which can be regarded as a courtesy. ”

Lu Lan said softly: "What does that look like?" My third aunt used to go to Chengdu Mansion, but she had nowhere to stay, and she lived in someone else's house for a few days, so she said that she stole people. People are terrible. ”

"My house is not small, there are many houses, and there are many people living in them." Guo Shao said, "There is a special place for guests to stay, you and Jing Niang are together, both are women, what is there to gossip?" ”

Lu Lan said: "I am not related to you...... she said stubbornly, "I don't want to be someone else's concubine!" If General Guo has clear grievances, he can't force me. ”

Guo Shao said: "I want to persecute you, and you still have to be so troublesome?" ”

Lu Lan was speechless when she heard this.

Guo Shao leaned forward and said in a low voice: "Lu Niangzi is not related to Tokyo for any reason, and no one knows you, who are you afraid of gossiping?" ”

Lu Lan was suddenly moved, lowered his head and whispered, "Then go to General Guo's house for a few days...... OK. ”

Guo Shao then got up and said, "Then let's go." ”

Lu Lan said: "You wait for me first, I'll pack up my things." ”

Guo Shao went out first and waited, and after a long time, Lu Lan packed up a big bag and took it out, which contained books, a change of clothes, and daily necessities. Guo Shao didn't break up and snatched it away, and carried it away in person. He explained to the martial artist next to him, and the man turned around and left first.

After going out, he asked Lu Lan to get into the carriage, Lu Lan hesitated slightly, bent down and walked up. Suddenly, time seemed to flow back to Zhuozhou, and the man on the side of the road had invited him to get into the carriage, and everything seemed familiar.

Guo Shao sat opposite, Lu Lan lowered his head and said nothing, looking a little restrained. Her mind went blank, and she didn't know what she was going to do next.

The two didn't say anything all the way, Guo Shao said a gossip from time to time, and Lu Lan ignored it. The sound outside gradually became noisy, she gently lifted the curtain to take a look, only to see that the street was full of cars and horses, and it was already the most prosperous downtown area.

The carriage stopped, Guo Shao got out of the car first, he didn't touch Lu Lan with a finger, very polite. This made Lu Lan feel a lot more relieved, she also got out of the car, looked around, and saw a shop in front of her, and the plaque on it read: Shen Chen Li Weaving.

"What did General Guo bring me here for?" Lu Lan wondered.

Guo Shao glanced at the linen coarse dress and wooden hairpin on her body, and said, "I didn't bring money out today, so I asked a sister to change your outfit for you, and I should pay you part of the remuneration for the visit." ”

Lu Lan said: "Then the Wang family gave the money." ”

"It's not enough for you to walk more than a thousand miles." Guo Shao can't say that he will go inside first.

Lu Lan didn't know the road here, so he had to follow him.
