Chapter 53 [Which is True and Which is False] (I)
If I were really Lu Yihong's son, I would definitely feel embarrassed because of this incident, but I didn't have any direct blood relationship with her, so I didn't show any embarrassment, and I thought silently in my heart, it seems that this Ji Mu is Lu Yihong's old lover, maybe he is Lu Xiaogui's father, and then I think about it, isn't Lu Xiaogui's father my father, and NND is getting more and more trouble. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is a confused account anyway, I will leave it alone, and wait for Lu Yihong to rescue her in the future and then slowly ask her clearly.
Seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, Ying Lian thought that I was worried about Lu Yihong's comfort, and whispered: "At present, Lu Yihong and Ji Mu are both imprisoned in the Iron and Blood Prison, where there are heavy guards and many masters lurking, don't try to rescue them." ”
"Looks like you've put a lot of effort into this."
Ying Lian smiled: "Yaoyao is my best sister, and I naturally have to go all out for what she entrusted me." ”
"Who framed my mother?"
"No one framed her, the husband is not guilty, and a person who has two treasures, the Water Heart Mirror and the Night Pearl, will always have many enemies out of thin air." Winning mercy means a lot.
I asked again: "Is it Sima Ziqi's idea that my mother will be imprisoned?" ”
Ying Lian hesitated for a moment before saying: "It's the idea of the King of Chu, since it is a matter that the King of Chu has decided, only if he opens his mouth can he release people, even if I go to ask the Queen Mother, it will have no effect, not to mention that the Queen Mother has never liked to intervene in the political affairs of the Chu State." ”
I secretly shouted that it was not good, if it was really King Chu Zhao's idea, then there was almost no room for maneuver in this matter, if King Chu Zhao died, wouldn't Lu Yihong have to die in prison?
Ying Lian said: "It seems that you don't know the ins and outs of this matter, Lu Yihong came to try to exchange Ji Mu from the king's hands with the water heart mirror and the night pearl this time, but at the time of the transaction, the two sides did not know what to do, Lu Yihong did not take out the treasure, and the king did not release Ji Mu, but arrested Lu Yihong and his party in prison." ”
"Is there any room for manoeuvre in this matter?"
Ying Lian said with a sad face: "If you can persuade her to hand over those two treasures, maybe ......"
It occurred to me that the topic of conversation between Ying Lian and me had always revolved around those two treasures, so she must have had another purpose, right? Wouldn't it be more complicated if she wanted to keep the treasure for herself, just like everyone else?
I sighed and said, "I have never heard of the treasure you said, and my mother didn't want me to get involved in it from the beginning, so why don't you arrange an opportunity for me to meet her alone, maybe I can persuade her to hand over some treasure." ”
Ying Lian was about to speak, suddenly heard a wail in the wind and rain, the cry was not made by one person, it sounded like hundreds of people were crying in unison, this cry changed color, I and Ying Lian were shocked, looked at each other, and faintly felt that something big must have happened.
After a while, I heard a miserable voice shouting, "The king has ......."
Ying Lian and I looked at each other, and it took a long time for Ying Lian to break the silence and say: "I'm going to the palace, remember, before I come to you, don't act rashly!" ”
I nodded, "Will you help me?" ”
Ying Lian showed a faint smile: "Yes!" ”
Returning to the tavern in the rain, Yingluo was still waiting for me there, and when she saw me returning safely, she greeted me with a sense of relief: "Childe, why have you been there for so long?" ”
At this time, the guests of the tavern had already walked out, and as soon as King Chu Zhao died, all the shops began to close consciously, and no one wanted to cause trouble at such a time.
I grabbed Yingluo's wrist: "Let's go, let's go back to the inn first." ”
Returned to the Surplus Inn, but saw that the door of the inn had also been blown up white silk, King Chu Zhao died, recently the State of Chu must be full of filial piety, I asked Yingluo to go to the cloth village as soon as possible to buy a few white hemp, suddenly thought of a business opportunity, if I buy a large number of white cloth now, I can definitely take the opportunity to make a national funeral wealth, but I am not short of money, not to mention that the main purpose of this time is to rescue Lu Yihong, these irrelevant little things do not do.
It wasn't until that night that the wailing in the entire Yingdu gradually subsided, and was replaced by a deathly silence. Kaoli and Dai Kaishan still didn't come back until midnight, I couldn't sleep with worry, sitting at the table, looking at the dancing candles, thinking about the scene of meeting Ying Lian in the evening, I intuitively felt that Ying Lian was an extraordinary woman, although she helped me from the beginning, but I was deeply suspicious of her real motives, not necessarily as she said, because she and Chu Yaoyao are the best sisters, so they spared no effort to help me. Unless I see Chu Yaoyao...... Thinking of Chu Yaoyao, I can't help but fall into a deep confusion, since Chu Yaoyao entered Chu, the whole person has been like a yellow crane and has no news, is she in trouble with Lu Yihong, or is she safe? From Ying Lian's words, it can be guessed that Chu Yaoyao should be safe, if she is really safe, why should she stay out of it? Knowing that I came to the Chu State, but you don't want to meet me?
There was a soft knock on the door, interrupting my musings, and I got up to open the door, thinking that it was Kaoli and Dai Kaishan coming back, but I didn't expect it to be Yingluo coming in with a supper.
"Haven't gone to sleep yet?"
Yingluo nodded and said, "I can't sleep." ”
I smiled and said, "King Chu Zhao is dead, and Yingdu will definitely be in chaos for the next two days, but it should be able to stabilize soon, and everything will return to its original state when King Hui ascends the throne." ”
"King Hui?" Yingluo was stunned.
Only then did I realize that I had lost my words, and no one knew about the accession of King Chu Hui to the throne yet, and I blurted it out with the impression of history, no wonder Yingluo felt strange. I smiled and covered up: "You are a girl's family, don't care about political matters, who is the king of Chu has nothing to do with you and me." ”
Yingluo nodded and said, "I don't know what happened to the princess now?" ”
I have been trying my best not to think about Ji and Yue's problems, and when she mentioned it, a sour taste suddenly came to my heart, and I silently put down the supper in my hand: "She must not feel good in her heart." ”
Yingluo said softly: "Childe, let's rest early, Yingluo has retired." ”
I sighed and said, "Kaoli and the two of them didn't come back, and I can't sleep, so why don't you accompany me to have a casual chat." ”
Yingluo sat down a little crampedly.
After I finished my supper, I put the empty bowl on the table, wiped my lips and said, "Yingluo, have you ever thought about what to do in the future?" ”
Yingluo shook her head, lowered her head and said, "I have nowhere to go, as long as Gongzi doesn't dislike me, I will stay by your side and serve you." ”
I couldn't help but laugh dumbly, I couldn't imagine that I had some fate with this Ba girl after all, but I was always facing life and death worries in Yingdu, and I was afraid that taking her by my side would hurt her.
I said softly: "Yingluo, I don't want to hide it from you, I'm in Yingdu, I will do some very dangerous things, why don't I give you some gold, you leave here first and settle down elsewhere, and then go to you when I'm done?" ”
When Yingluo heard me say this, she hurriedly knelt on her knees, and I reached out to grab her jade arm: "Hurry up, I just let you leave temporarily, not drive you away!" ”
Yingluo sobbed: "Childe, I'm not afraid of danger, as long as you let me follow you, if you really want to drive me away, Yingluo can only die." ”
I nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, you have the right to say this." ”
Yingluo got up, packed up the table and left.
Kaoli and Dai Kaishan did not return to the Surplus Inn until noon the next day, both of them changed into filial piety clothes, and when they saw me, they were helpless, took off their filial piety robes outside, and then saluted me and said: "Childe, the gate of Yingdu was blocked last night, and I was just released." ”
I nodded, "I was worried about you guys last night. ”
Dai Kaishan said: "The vicinity of the iron-blooded prison is heavily guarded, and there is a moat around it, so it is impossible to approach at all. ”
"Even if the boss is really imprisoned, the chances of successfully rescuing her are slim. ”
I waved my hand and said, "You are tired, go back and rest, try not to go out if there is nothing to do in the past two days, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”
In the next few days, a few of us spent most of our time in the Surplus Inn, and through the window facing the street, we could often see the heavily armored Chu soldiers passing through the street, and in order to prevent the turmoil that might occur after the death of King Chu Zhao, the Chu people put a lot of effort into it. Finally, when King Chu Zhao came out of the funeral, and the news of King Chu Hui's accession to the throne came out not long after, Yingluo obviously remembered what I blurted out that night, and deeply admired my foresight.
After the funeral of King Zhao of Chu, there were gradually sparse Chu people walking around on the streets, after all, during this time, the business of Yingdu of Chu State was almost at a standstill, and the merchants of Yingdu finally obtained the permission to reopen, despite this, few people dared to openly go to the wine shop to drink noisily, and the entire capital still seemed very deserted.
During this time, I was always waiting for news of Ying Lian, and I knew in my heart that she would not come to me so soon, but thinking of Lu Yihong who was in prison, I was restless all day long.
"Childe, someone is looking for you!" Dai Kaishan walked in from outside the door, and followed him out of the door, only to see a middle-aged man sitting in the hall of the inn, staring in my direction with a faint smile on his face.
I was slightly stunned, this man was the one who led me to see Ying Lian that day, and a burst of joy surged in my heart, Ying Lian was finally able to find time to help me solve Lu Yihong's matter.
I slowly walked in front of him: "This brother is okay?" ”
The man hugged my fist and said, "In the following Tulie, I came on the orders of the young lady." ”
I wanted to invite him into the room, but Tu Lie said, "The carriage and horses have been prepared, Lu Gongzi, please go with me." ”
I nodded, "Okay, let me prepare." I gave Dai Kaishan a look.
Tu Lie said: "Master Lu, it's more convenient for you to go alone in this matter." ”
I smiled and said, "Okay! ”
"Childe!" Dai Kaishan was afraid that I would make a mistake when I went alone, so he reminded me in a low voice.
I turned to him and said, "You are waiting for me here, you can't go out without anything!" ”
Dai Kaishan glanced at Tu Lie with some unease, and said in a low voice: "Be careful, childe, if someone dares to harm you, I will break his body into ten thousand pieces." ”
Tu Lie laughed, he must have been able to hear that Dai Kaishan's words were threatening him, he stretched out his hand and made an inviting gesture: "Lu Gongzi, please!" ”
Because King Chu Zhao had just died, the gorgeous carriage in front of the door was also covered with a black cloth, and only when you entered it could you feel its magnificence, light smoke wafted out of the pure gold incense burner, and the carriage was unusually warm and comfortable, Tu Lie and I sat side by side: "Let's go!" ”
I didn't ask him where he was going, in front of Ying Lian, I didn't have any room for bargaining, this is in the Chu country, where life is sparse, if I want to rescue Lu Yihong, I can only rely on Ying Lian.
Tu Lie's deep voice came from his ears: "Lu Gongzi's accent is not like that of Yue Guoren!" ”
I grinned: "Brother Tu is very suitable to be a detective in my hometown!" ”
"Detective?" Tulie wondered.
I didn't intend to explain it to him, and said with a smile: "I am indeed not from the Yue country, and my ancestors should be from the Lu country when I trace the roots, but since I was a child, I followed my mother to wander around, and I learned a few local dialects wherever I went. ”
Tu Lie laughed: "Listening to Lu Gongzi's accent, it looks very similar to that of Yan Guoren...... Have you also lived in the Yan Kingdom? ”
I couldn't help frowning, I didn't expect this Tulie to be a careful guy, I spoke Mandarin, and I thought it was a little similar to Yan Guo's accent, so I nodded and said, "I've been there, but I don't have any impression anymore." ”
Tulie sighed, not knowing if it was for me or for himself. Even when talking to me, his right hand was always placed next to the hilt of the sword, I had observed him, he was not unintentionally making movements, Tulie had a deep wariness of me, his palms were wide, his joints were protruding, and his skin was rough, and he seemed to be a diligent swordsman.
