Text Chapter 17 Luo Jiu
The visitor stood outside the window and looked cautiously for a while before pushing the door in. After entering the house, he looked around uneasily, and only after making sure that there was no one did he close the door, and then walked slowly in the direction of the bed.
Just as the person was about to approach, Cheng Jingyun and Song Zhancheng glanced at each other and decided to capture the person at the same time.
"Ahh The visitor seemed to be startled by the sudden flying quilt and let out a short exclamation.
Hearing this voice, Song Zhancheng hurriedly took off the quilt again, and shouted tentatively: "Luo Jiu? ”
"Senior brother!"
After the words fell, Song Zhancheng let go of Luo Jiu, Cheng Jingyun glanced at him, and followed the woman to let go.
Cheng Jingyun took a closer look at the woman in front of her, she didn't look like those ladies in general, but like a person from the rivers and lakes.
"Senior brother, who is this?" Luo Jiu, who was let go, couldn't help but ask out loud in confusion when he saw Cheng Jingyun beside Song Zhancheng.
Song Zhancheng glanced at Cheng Jingyun, thought for a while and said, "This is Buyun, my maid." Then he said to Cheng Jingyun: "This is my junior sister, Luo Jiu." ”
"You're Buyun?" Luo Jiu looked at Cheng Jingyun with a curious expression, she had heard that there was a very clever maid beside her senior brother long ago, and she didn't want to see her here.
Cheng Jingyun looked at Luo Jiu in front of her and said with a smile: "The girl knows Buyun? ”
"I've heard of it, but it's the first time I've seen it today." Luo Jiu sat on the edge of the bed as he spoke, looking up at Cheng Jingyun and grinning.
Song Zhancheng frowned, watched Luo Jiu sit on the bed, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Why are you here?"
Luo Jiu smiled slightly childishly, "I was originally ordered by my master to come to the aid of the imperial court against the Hengguo army, but on the way, I heard that my senior brother was framed by the crown prince, so I heard the sound and came to the county order mansion, and I found you." ”
When she heard Luo Jiu say that she wanted to help the imperial court look at Hengguo's army, she couldn't help frowning, clenched her fists slightly, and couldn't help but feel worried about the battle situation of Hengguo in her heart.
Song Zhancheng noticed Cheng Jingyun's thoughts, and sighed softly, since he knew that she was from Hengguo, when he encountered this kind of thing, he couldn't say anything more to her, Heng and Yi were at war, and no one in the two countries would let anyone.
"What's the plan to find? Take me out of here? Song Zhancheng looked at Luo Jiu indifferently.
Hearing Song Zhancheng's question, Luo Jiu immediately said: "I have already checked the time and escape route of the guards of the county order mansion, and the time cannot be delayed, let's leave now." ”
Song Zhancheng shook his head, and the corners of his mouth rose helplessly: "No need, I don't want to go." ”
"But if you go back to Beijing like this, you will fall into the hands of some villains, and they will cause you to be severely punished! It will also likely lead to the loss of the rights you have now! Luo Jiu eagerly persuaded.
She didn't want to see Song Zhancheng's painful appearance.
"The Qing is self-purifying, I have no intention of the throne, my father is so wise, I naturally know it in my heart, if it is not a few chaotic ministers and thieves, he will believe it." Song Zhancheng said indifferently.
"Senior brother, you can go with me!" Luo Jiu looked at Song Zhancheng with a distressed look on his face and begged.
"Luo Jiu, I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore." After speaking, Song Zhancheng stopped looking at her and turned to sit on the chair on the side.
Despite this, the sorrow in his eyebrows and eyes couldn't be hidden, and Cheng Jingyun could see it clearly.
It seems that Song Zhancheng is not a very favored prince - she analyzed in her heart.
"Miss Luo Jiu, since the prince has already asserted, you should respect the prince's intentions, don't embarrass him."
Hearing Cheng Jingyun's words, Luo Jiu bit his lip, looked at Song Zhancheng's back, and said with a look of grievance: "Forget it!" Senior brother really doesn't want to leave, so let's be here. Senior brother, take good care of yourself...... Buyun, you also have to take care of my senior brother, so I'll leave first. ”
After saying this, Luo Jiu stood up and walked towards the door, but halfway through, he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside.
"Someone's coming!"
Song Zhancheng tilted his head slightly, and his eyes looked sharply at the rapidly approaching firelight outside the window. He walked quickly to Luo Jiu's side and motioned for her to lie down on the bed obediently, and Cheng Jingyun also followed when she saw this. Song Zhancheng laid out the quilt, closed the bed curtain, and flashed to the table and poured half a cup of tea.
This series of actions went smoothly, and as soon as the door was finished, it was pushed open, and a group of people broke in fiercely.
Seeing the appearance of the person who came, the corners of Song Zhancheng's lips hooked up with a sneer, "What is the county magistrate doing?" ”
The small county order, knowing that the second prince lives here, acts so obediently, domineering and rude, it is obvious that he does not take the second prince in his eyes.
But now that the emperor has not made a clear statement, a small county official dares to be so arrogant, and there must be a hard backer behind him.
Hard backer, who else can it be?
Song Zhancheng had already guessed the purpose of the visitor.
After the county commander entered the door, he saw that Song Zhancheng was not only not panicked, so he put away his fierce appearance, and said with a flattering smile: "It's late at night, why hasn't the second prince fallen asleep yet?" ”
"The county magistrate is really a parent official, and even the king's bedtime is so thoughtful." Song Zhancheng sneered, "This king is upset and irritable today, and he always feels that he will be disturbed by the dog if he sleeps too early, so he plans to sit for a while to see if this intuition is true." ”
Of course, it is humiliating to be ridiculed like this, but no matter how hard the backstage of the county order is, it is only a county order on the surface, and there is no such thing as arguing with the prince.
So he laughed even more hypocritically, "The second prince's statement is a little different from the news received by the lower officials. Xia Guan received the exact news that the city has not been very peaceful recently, and it seems that it has been mixed with the details of several Hengguo. The lower official sent someone to spy at night, and someone saw a black shadow jumping into the courtyard where the second prince lived, which ......"
Hearing the words of the county order, Song Zhancheng's face turned cold, the other party was slandering him for collaborating with the enemy and treason.
His expression was cold, he shook his arm, and said coldly: "Since the county commander knows that this is the residence of this king, he still acts so recklessly, obviously not taking the identity of this king, the second prince, in his eyes. ”
The county order became anxious, anxious because he was afraid that Song Zhancheng's move was delaying time, and he couldn't care about the ridicule and threat in Song Zhancheng's words, so he smirked: "Second prince, if you invite the person hidden in the bed out to let the lower official verify his identity, wouldn't it not only fulfill the lower official, but also prove the innocence of the second prince?" ”
Song Zhancheng snorted coldly.
The other party really came prepared.
"You're threatening me?" He squinted slightly, and the murderous aura of his life emanated from him.
The county commander was shaken by the murderous cold body, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "The lower official is also acting on orders, and please don't embarrass the lower official!" ”
Hearing this, Luo Jiu's eyes rolled when he was hiding under the quilt.
Does this county magistrate think that she is very smart, hmph, she is going to jump out and smash this person's face!
"See clearly! I'm not from Hengguo, I'm the younger sister of the second prince, and the disciple of the Moon Shadow True Person of Yulian Mountain! This is our Jade Curtain Mountain Sect Jade Brand! Keep your dog's eyes open and give me a good look! Luo Jiu stretched out the green jade token in his hand angrily and looked at the county order proudly.
The Jianghu sect not only contributed to the army in this war and troubled era, but also relieved many displaced people and helped the court share their worries, because of the emperor's praise and encouragement, Luo Jiu was influenced by the senior brothers and sisters in the sect, and he was naturally very disdainful of these small officials.
"I came down the mountain this time on the orders of my master to come to my brother's aid in attacking Hengguo! Don't you feel ashamed that you officials don't have the energy to defend your family and the country, listen to the wind and rain every day, and hurt your own people by chasing the wind and shadows? ! ”
Although the county order who was scolded by Luo Jiu was disappointed, he had no intention of making amends, only to see him smile ambiguously, "It's the lower officials who disturbed the second prince and the girl, let's rest early." ”
It wasn't until the group of people completely walked away that Cheng Jingyun got up from the quilt and looked at the two people in front of her.
Luo Jiu saw that Song Zhancheng had been looking serious and didn't speak, the momentum just now suddenly dissipated, and he walked to his side weakly and asked, "Senior brother, they won't suspect you next, right?" ”
Song Zhancheng sighed helplessly: "Why are you so breathless?" ”
Luo Jiu felt a little aggrieved, "I'...... How can I watch these villains slander you like this! ”
Song Zhancheng had a headache and held his forehead, "I know you're doing this for my good, but you can't be so anxious." You're not married, so ...... It will ruin your reputation. ”
"Luo Jiu is not afraid! Senior brother, for your sake, I don't care about fame! Luo Jiu's eyes were firm, and he said with a serious expression.
Looking at Luo Jiu like this, Song Zhancheng's heart became more complicated.
