Chapter 12 Picking Provocations and Becoming Uneasy
Luo Yun looked at the red shadow and was about to throw the curtain away, and suddenly the courage to ask out of nowhere asked: "Dare to ask the lady in red, Luo Yun is offended!" ”
The red-clothed figure paused, and said without looking back: "The son is polite and not offended." ”
Finally talk to Red! Luo Yun was secretly excited in his heart, his face was silent, and he continued to ask: "Luo Yun is not offended, why did the lady leave without saying goodbye?" ”
"Childe, forgive me, there are still miscellaneous servants to be done in the red clothes. Besides......" The red clothes turned his head, and out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at Luo Yun, who was sitting with his head held high, and did not hide the unsafe look on his face. It's as if the soldier guarding the frontier is declaring to the intruder that he is not to be offended, saying word by word, "Red clothes do not accompany wine!" ”
The heroic aura struck, but Luo Yun held up his momentum and was not affected at all, and said without hesitation: "Then remove this wine!" Luo Yun didn't come to drink on this trip. Luo Yun has something to say to the lady in red, and please be patient and sit down and listen to me! After saying it loudly, Luo Yun looked directly into the eyes of the red clothes, and it was the first time he looked at her like this. Was there a ripple in those eyes just now?
The sneering sound of "hee-hee" abruptly broke the somewhat deadlocked atmosphere. Luo Yun followed the prestige, but he was sitting on the side and covered his lips and smiled, without waiting for Luo Yun to ask questions. Lang Xuan smiled and said to the red clothes who were frozen at the door and couldn't advance or retreat: "Sister, it's rare to meet such an interesting person. Just sit down and see what he can say, and go back to make a fuss. Nier caused this, and she should wash the dishes for you. ”
When the red clothes heard this, there was no expression on their faces, and they turned around and walked back silently, and sat down with their eyes down, looking like they were listening.
Luo Yun didn't expect that it was not an excuse for Hongyi to say that there were still miscellaneous servants to do. Such a red woman with a sword dance in the city is still responsible for scrubbing dishes, and it seems that her situation in this building is very poor. But this also deepened the doubts in Luo Yun's heart, and he opened his mouth to ask: "The lady in red has all her skills, and she should be like a flying eagle soaring in the sky, crisscrossing the world." Why do you have to bury this body in this small green building? ”
As soon as the words came out, the red clothes in front of Luo Yun suddenly trembled irrepressibly, and the strings and Yaniel, who were originally sitting on the side watching the play with a playful face, also changed their faces suddenly. Luo Yun screamed in his heart, as if he had asked a question that he shouldn't have asked.
wanted to open his mouth to make up for it, but he only listened to Fang Cai's kind words to help him persuade Hongyi to come back, and the two-finger string pinch the string popped out a crisp pop, and he drank softly: "I thought I could say something touching." But he is also a stunned boy who doesn't know the so-called, if you don't understand right and wrong, go home and let the elders teach you well before you come out! Conquering the world? Hmph, could it be that you are still a mountain bandit or a ranger who walks through the streets and alleys? Do you think that everyone can be as reckless and free as you are? ”
Luo Yun opened his mouth to defend but didn't know what to say, and the red clothes waved his long sleeves at Lang Xuan and said in a deep voice: "That's it, those who don't know are not guilty." Hongyi could hear that Gongzi was sincere, and he didn't have to be embarrassed by him. After speaking, Hongyi looked at Luo Yun, and the fluorescence in his eyes flashed, revealing some self-pity and self-harm: "Childe's question, Hongyi can only say that if Hongyi leaves, this Zhan Lulou can't trap Hongyi." But what if you get out? The world is so big that there is no place for red clothes. On the contrary, it was the official and slave deed that made Hongyi feel that there was still a sense of existence in this body. In this way, does Childe understand? ”
Luo Yun shook his head slightly, but he couldn't speak. Just looked at the eyes of the red clothes fixedly, wanting to see through the hidden stories in these beautiful windows. What kind of experience will make a beautiful and proud woman completely lose her dreams of life? Is the woman in front of her, dressed in fiery red clothes but as cold as ice, really the flame on that stage that seems to burn the sky and the earth? Which one is the real her?
Cheng Wu concentrated on flicking his whip to drive the carriage, and Mu'er sat on the other side, looking at every lane that passed on both sides. Sure enough, as Mrs. Li said, when Cheng Wu went to find the Jinwu guards to inquire about General Cheng's whereabouts, as soon as he said 'Cheng Zhijie', the soldiers really knew about the famous Lu Guogong and General Youwuwei. asked where this Cheng Guogong lived, and Cheng Wu immediately drove there with Mu'er, hoping that this General Cheng Zhijie was really his General Cheng Yanjin.
It was almost noon before the two of them finally found the Lu Guogong Mansion. From a distance, I looked at the warriors standing left and right beside the high red gate, and the gilded characters of the Lu Guogong Mansion hung high on the door of the mansion. Cheng Wu, who has lived in a small civilian household all his life, was inexplicably timid, and he didn't dare to step forward to inquire while holding on to the wheel. Cheng Wu is like this, and Mu'er is even more thoughtless, and the two of them just stared at the high-walled gate and wanted to see through. If they hadn't parked far away, the guards standing guard would have come and evicted them.
Cheng Wu didn't dare to rush forward and ask if Cheng Zhijie's original name was Cheng Yanjin. After all, he was the prince of the dynasty and the general of the three grades. It is strange that the guards who hold the lance do not beat them out when they rush up and ask about the name of the master.
The main entrance is afraid to go. Cheng Mu had an idea, pulled his father back into the carriage, and drove the car around the Lu Guogong Mansion. I saw an open side door, and there were servants in Tsing Yi carrying vegetables in and out. Cheng Mu hurriedly jumped out of the car and stopped an older man, and asked politely, "Dare to ask Uncle is from this Lu Guogong Mansion?" ”
The middle-aged man was walking back with a basket of big red apples, and when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Cheng Mu, looked up and down, and felt that this simple young man didn't look like a villain, so he nodded and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"The boy is polite. Uncle, I accompanied my father to Beijing to find an old benefactor, but there was no news after several visits. Later, I heard someone mention it, and then I found your house. But although we found here, our father and son couldn't recklessly knock on the door and inquire so that they offended Grandpa Guo, so they had no choice but to ......" Cheng Mu has always followed behind Luo Yun without saying a word, but now these words are accompanied by facial expressions, but the hope of finding people, the disappointment of fruitless inquiry, and the awe of Lu Guogong and the pity of entering without a door are vividly expressed. If Luo Yun is allowed to see it, I am afraid that he will no longer worry about Cheng Mu being too wooden.
As soon as the man heard Cheng Mu say that he was looking for someone, and then looked at Cheng Wu who was left behind, the clothes of the two fell into their eyes, and they suddenly had a plan in their hearts: This is a poor man who doesn't know where, and a relative in the house who can't beat the eight poles has come to defect.
Thinking of the middle-aged man's chin, he raised a little, and his demeanor couldn't help but show some arrogance: "It turned out that he was looking for someone." Hey, it's a shame that you two are still troublesome, and you know that you came here to inquire. If you really set foot at the main gate, how can the Fuzhong family not beat you a few times? Who are you looking for? I've been in Chengfu for four or five years, and I'm familiar with everyone up and down. ”
Cheng Mu smiled humbly at the arrogance of the man, turned around and beckoned his father over. Cheng Wu abandoned the reins and walked over with a horsewhip. is not polite, and hugged his fist at the middle-aged man and asked bluntly: "Dare to ask the little brother, your mansion Cheng Guogong turned out to be a 'bite gold'?" ”
The man was stunned for a moment when he was asked, and then frowned and glared at Cheng Wu with displeasure: "You are so rude, you dare to offend my master so much!" Who in the Manchu Dynasty doesn't know the name and surname of my family, so you should leave as soon as possible, otherwise I will definitely call out my brothers to teach you a lesson! ”
Where did Cheng Wu care about this man's intimidation, he was disappointed when he heard the man's words, sighed, shook his head and turned to leave. Cheng Mu smiled apologetically at the angry man, arched his hand and chased after his father to leave.
"Wait!" An old man in a long robe suddenly turned out of the gate of Nafu, holding his long beard and glaring at the man in front of him quite majestically. Cheng Mu was stopped by a loud voice, and nodded politely: "I don't know where the honorable guest came from?" How do I know my old name? ”
Hearing this, Cheng Mu was stunned, and then asked in surprise: "Your Mansion Cheng Guogong is really called Cheng Biting Jin?!" ”
Cheng Mu's question was very rude, but the old man just frowned slightly and didn't care, nodded and said, "My master turned out to be really named 'biting gold'. It was only later renamed 'Zhijie' and the word Yizhen. Because it was many years ago, except for some of my old colleagues, few people in the country know my master's original name. Ignorance...... How did the father and son know? Is it old with my grandfather? After speaking, the old man looked at Cheng Wu and his son with an inquiring expression.
Cheng Mu turned his head to look at his father excitedly, only to see Cheng Wu standing in place in a daze, looking blankly at the front without any focus, his body trembled slightly, his lips were closed and he muttered, "Really...... It's General Cheng...... He's still alive......"
In the Zhanlu Building, the servants have already sprinkled and stopped. The maidservants and musicians have also finished their make-ups, waiting for the busiest time in the middle of the day. Soon, the idle boy and brother shook into the building in pairs, ordered melon and fruit sake, and grinded his teeth to consume a good time.
But before these people could sit on their buttocks, they heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the building, accompanied by the exclamations of passers-by who couldn't dodge, a few horse neighings, and the sound of hooves stopped in front of Zhan Lu Lou. The idle boy poked his head out to see which nobleman had hurt people again, and he didn't want to see the four horses at the door, and he didn't want to see the four horses at the door, and he didn't look at the street behind him that was a mess by them. The leader pushed away the smiling Zhanlulou servant, stood in front of the door, and waited for a dozen guards with sticks behind him to run to the front, arrogantly breaking into the building with a group of thugs hulala.
The two sons who wanted to see the excitement saw this person's appearance clearly, and their hearts were not good, so they hurriedly slipped out of the door by sticking to the corner. Fortunately, the family members seemed to know why their master had come, and they did not stop them. However, the two men came out of the building, but they did not go far. Standing outside with a probe and waiting to see the excitement, I was excited to see the look. The prodigal son of the Wei family is so prosperous, if he doesn't make a big move, how can he end well!
It was none other than Wei Yi, the son of the Wei family, who was lost face by the red clothes last night and sent his subordinates to teach Luo Yun a lesson. Last night, Luo Yun used Xiao You's power to clean up the subordinates he sent, Wei Yi couldn't wait left and right in the building, and he was embarrassed by the red clothes, and he was depressed, where can he still sit. Within a quarter of an hour, he went home in a hurry.
Who would have thought that just after asking the old man to come out this morning, he listened to the report from his subordinates, saying that his entourage was attacked and knocked unconscious and thrown in the alley next to Zhan Lu Lou, and he woke up in the middle of the night and just returned to the house in the morning.
This time it can blow up Pei Dashao, who is usually unscrupulous, and whip a few whips from those embarrassed entourages, and immediately beckoned the guards in the house to copy the guy and go straight to Zhan Lu Lou. In Wei Yi's mind, the two boys who provoked him last night couldn't be any masters, otherwise how could they meet his subordinates and turn around and run. And the few subordinates who were knocked out insisted that they were knocked unconscious by a sneak attack by a black shadow, not the hands of the two young men. Although Datang is a hero, he happened to meet a righteous man there. Thinking of the red clothes last night, he also left immediately, who else could this sneak attacker have except the red clothes with unparalleled swordsmanship!
"Where's the dead slut in red! Hurry up and get out of here for Young Master Ben! Otherwise, Young Master Ben smashed this Zhan Lu Building today! ”
Pei Dashao howled like a high-spirited fighting with a sharp throat, but it really had a preemptive effect. The big shopkeeper who was originally holding his hem and hurrying to the front hall to prepare for persuasion stopped suddenly when he heard that Pei Shao was looking for the 'Red Rakshasa'. His eyes rolled like this, and he immediately dodged and retreated. Hiding behind the pillars, he waved his hand at the guys in front of him to get them out of the way.
The red-clothed man has a skill, and he usually doesn't give face to anyone, and it's not the first time that he has saved face for the powerful. I don't know how many times I've caused trouble, but this red coat is still a soft and hard master. And the most terrible thing is that she doesn't want to die in red! If you go head-to-head with her, she'll be able to give you a fish to break with a nonchalant face!
When encountering such a lord, a few of those powerful people are really willing to embarrass this still famous Qinglou woman for the sake of saving face. The magnates don't care about her, and the shopkeeper can't do anything about her. The most vivid memory of the shopkeeper is that in order to force the red clothes to comply, he secretly prepared an aphrodisiac. In order not to arouse Hongyi's suspicion, he directly put the medicine in the vegetable pot for the maid. Everyone's meals have medicine, everyone will eat them, and you're afraid that she won't fit in red?
The shopkeeper was even ready to take down the rouge horse himself, but just as he was humming a small song and sipping tea soup and other medicinal effects, Hongyi kicked open his door with a pot of vegetables......
Later, the shopkeeper once asked some friends in the 'rivers and lakes' to inquire, and he never heard that there were a few people who could conclude that the meal was drugged just by smelling and looking at it. This kind of ability, those who are mixed with the ancestors on the so-called 'old rivers and lakes' may not be able to do it. But the red clothes, who have not yet been in their teens, have this magical ability, and they have never made mistakes.
Zhan Lulou really had no choice but to take the red clothes, but fortunately, as long as she was good at talking and telling her, even if it was to do the work of sprinkling and sweeping the servants, she would do it without saying a word. The shopkeeper doesn't like to have such a person under him, and he is very eager for a tough enough 'hooligan' to appear and clean up this female evil star. So seeing that someone came to the door to find trouble in red, the shopkeeper was really too late to be happy, and kept encouraging Pei Dashao in his heart: As a man, you must be hard to the end! If you soften it in half, this big girl and little daughter-in-law will look down on you!
Where is the black-bellied shopkeeper in this compartment, gloating, lewd in red, and the miserable appearance of being cleaned up. In the Accord on the second floor, Luo Yun had just finished confiding his true feelings, and seeing the beauty opposite's chest rise and fall several times, it seemed that he finally had an emotional reaction, but he was interrupted by this sudden scolding. The red-clothed brush got up, turned around and lifted the curtain and ran out.
String and Juanier glanced at Luo Yun with pity as if they had been immobilized, and with a faint sigh, they also got up and chased the red clothes out of the cubicle.
Luo Yun sat stunned, he really didn't expect that his true feelings would be exchanged for such a fruitless result. Stunned, he withdrew his hand and stared at his palm for a long time, thinking back to the inexplicable look in his eyes when he got up, but he felt that it was not a good thing that his abrupt behavior was interrupted like this. At least the heart in his chest, which had almost jumped to his throat, had finally calmed down again. Staring at the redness of his palms, Luo Yun picked up the wine cup in front of him, raised his head and drank it all, and then brushed his clothes up.
will be beautiful and be disturbed by villains, even if you have a heart and bearing, how can you not be annoyed or angry? What's more, this villain still showed that the carriage and horse came to trouble the beauty, if he didn't take this breath, he Luoyun would simply hide back in Yunshan and become a monk!
