Chapter 0085 - Love to the Depths
After a long time, Zhang Xuan calmed down, he let go of Lu Qing embarrassedly, his face was hot for a while, and he smiled awkwardly: "You continue to rest, I will go outside to guard for you, and I promise that there will be no more problems." NOVEL WWW.し WXS520.COM"
"Don't!"
Lu Qing took his hand and looked at him pleadingly, "Don't go, I'm scared alone." ”
"Alright! Let's squeeze it. ”
Zhang Xuan smiled and sat down beside her, and Lu Qing naturally pillowed his head on his shoulder, "Childe, I don't know what your name is?" ”
"I'm really confused, my single name is Xuan, it is said that Xuan is the instrument of Tuoding, so the word is called Yuan Ding."
"The word Yuan Ding is very good, my second brother's name is Qingyuan, and he also has a Yuan character."
Lu Qing pursed his lips lightly and asked in a low voice, "Brother Zhang, are your parents in your hometown?" ”
"My parents died when I was very young, my grandmother raised me, and she died three years ago, so I have no relatives."
"Oh! I'm sorry. ”
"It's okay, I'm used to it."
At this time, Zhang Xuan pondered and asked, "Does Miss Lu or Miss Lu's father have a rival in Lujiazhuang?" “
"Why do you ask?" Lu Qing looked at Zhang Xuan in confusion.
"I just think that it won't be a coincidence that Lu Mingyue met the girl, it should be premeditated."
"How could it be premeditated?"
Zhang Xuan said lightly: "Lu Mingyue will not attack Lujiazhuang, if he wants to do it, he will do it a long time ago, and he will not wait until now, I can see that they are obviously ambushing on the mountain road, if he didn't know in advance that the girl was coming, what is the point of him ambushing?" ”
Zhang Xuan's analysis is very reasonable, Lu Qing thought about it carefully. It was his second uncle who said that his father was in a hurry, urging him to rush to the county seat, and he was only equipped with a guard family, which was completely unreasonable, and the coachman insisted on taking the small road. It stands to reason that they should have taken the big road.
Could it be........
Lu Qing didn't dare to think about it anymore, and shook his head again and again, "Impossible!" ”
Zhang Xuan also knew that the truth had always been very cruel, when he met Lu Yi and Lu Mingyue at the inn, they were afraid that they had planned this kidnapping operation at that time.
However, why did Lu Mingyue assassinate Guo Xuan, the governor of Youzhou, and what does Lu Yi have to do with the governor of Youzhou. There must be something hidden in this, and he didn't say anything more, and said with a smile: "Maybe it's a coincidence, don't think about it too much, girl." ”
Lu Qingyu sighed quietly, if he couldn't even rely on his own second uncle. How many people in the world can be relied on?
She thought of the young man beside her, although she had been with her for a short time, she felt his unswerving insistence on her, as if they had lived for decades, this was a man she could rely on and give her a sense of security.
She silently restrained the excitement in her heart, but her body involuntarily leaned towards Zhang Xuan, as if she was eager to get some more support from him.
Zhang Xuan felt that the stone wall behind him was a little cold. He reached out and put his arm around her and let her lean on his arm, but Lu Qing would be wrong. Slowly snuggling into his arms, she raised her head and looked at him affectionately with a pair of beautiful eyes.
Jang Hyun only felt 'buzzing!' It was as if a stream of electricity was flowing through his body, and his mind was in chaos, and an irresistible temptation seized his whole body and mind. He lowered his head a little.......
Lu Qing was extremely shy in her heart, but she didn't push Zhang Xuan away. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes, his red lips slightly open. But at this moment, Zhang Xuan's mind became clear, and a heroic and vigorous girl figure appeared.
He suddenly remembered Xin Yu.
Zhang Xuan raised her head suddenly, her head hit the stone wall behind her heavily, Lu Qing's body slowly became stiff, her heart seemed to have fallen into the abyss, and two crystal tears oozed from her slightly closed eyes.
Jao Hyun stood up and walked out of the cave, his heart was in pain like a fierce beetle gnawing at it, he smashed his fist into the dirt, he already had a woman in his life, but he fell in love with another girl.
At this time, Lu Qing appeared behind him, hugged his waist tightly from behind, and sobbed silently: "It turns out that you already know!" ”
"Know what?" Jang Hyun asked a little strangely.
"I've actually made a promise."
"What?" Zhang Xuan turned around and looked at her in a daze, "I don't know, who are you married?" ”
Lu Qing lowered his head and said sadly: "The Fanyang Lu family and the Boling Cui family have been married to each other for a hundred years, my eldest brother is married to the eldest daughter of the Cui family, I am the eldest daughter of my father, and I must also marry the heir of the Cui family, this is the rule set by the Cui and Lu families a hundred years ago. ”
"Who is the heir of the Cui family, has it been decided?"
Lu Qing shook his head, "The eldest son of the Boling Cui clan is called Cui Youlin, but he unfortunately died of illness when he was eight years old. ”
"But it's just a 100-year rule, right? You've never been engaged to anyone at all, I'm right! ”
"That's right! But the Lu Cui family will never break the century-old rules, Brother Zhang, since I am my father's eldest daughter, I really can't help myself. ”
"What bullshit rules!"
Zhang Xuan said angrily: "If the other party is an idiot, do you want to marry him?" If the other party is a sick man, you will marry him too? ”
"Of course I don't want to! But...... No one can shake me until I'm dead, you know? My mother's maiden family was the Bolingtri clan. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Qing threw herself into Zhang Xuan's arms and cried bitterly, she was at a loss before, but at this time she only had one person in her heart, and she could no longer tolerate anyone.
Zhang Xuan also slowly calmed down, he knew very well that the marriage between the families, the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the family stood for hundreds of years without falling, the fundamental reason is that they formed a strong alliance of interests and formed a huge force, and the marriage is the basis of this alliance of interests, Lu Qing, as the eldest daughter of the head of the Lu family, how could he stay out of it.
From small families to large countries, marriage has always served politics, both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign.
Lu Qing choked up and said: "I only hate that I can't be born in an ordinary family, maybe I can marry someone I like, but it's the Boling Cui family, they are the first family in Hebei and even in the world." The family rules are notoriously strict, and the Lu family's reputation is under it, where do I have a choice? ”
"Is there really nothing you can do?" Zhang Xuan sighed softly and said.
"Yes!"
Lu Qing raised his head and looked at Zhang Xuan with teary eyes, and his beautiful eyes became extremely bright.
"You take me away! They thought I had been captured by the bandits. You'll think I'm dead, and this rule doesn't exist for me. ”
This idea was already there, but it disappeared immediately, it was too unrealistic, and he gently stroked Lu Qing's hair.
"You come with me, what about your parents? Can you leave them behind? And your family. Everything is going to be given up....."
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, a trace of pain that could not be concealed slowly flashed in her eyes, she longed to go with Zhang Xuan, but the affection of her parents made it difficult for her to let go, and her parents thought she was dead. What a blow it was to them.
She lay in Jang Hyun's arms without saying a word, and tears quietly soaked Jang Hyun's clothes.
Zhang Xuan hugged her thin shoulders tightly, and comforted her softly: "Don't be sad first, I think there should be a way, you tell me first, has the heir of the Cui family been decided?" ”
Lu Qing slowly calmed down, and she said in a low voice: "I heard my mother say that the heir to the head of the Cui family must be decided by the whole clan in the big sacrifice. The Cui family festival is held once every three years, and last year, several families of the festival fiercely competed for the position of successor, and the result was unhappy. The next festival will not take place until two years later. ”
Zhang Xuan looked at her, "If you still can't decide after two years, won't it delay your life?" ”
"My father said the same!"
Lu Qing sighed softly, "My father said that I will be seventeen years old in two years, and I can't delay it any longer, if the Cui family can't decide on the heir of the head of the family in two years." He considered giving me to someone else. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Qing suddenly had a bitter hatred for the Cui family in his heart. Her clear eyes shot a look of anger, "I hate this hundred-year-old rule. I hate the Cui family, I hate all the family marriages, and it is this kind of marriage that I can't get even if I see happiness today. ”
Zhang Xuan hugged Lu Qing tightly into his arms, he already had an idea in his heart, and said to himself: "As long as the Cui family still can't decide on the heir of the head of the family after two years, you can get rid of this so-called century-old rule." ”
........
The sky gradually brightened, Zhang Xuan woke up first, he slowly opened his eyes, the cave was very dim, a large stone blocked the entrance of the cave, and a large light entered from the gaps around it.
Zhang Xuan lowered his head again, looking at Lu Qing who was sleeping sweetly in his arms with pity, he carefully touched her forehead, lest he wake her up, Lu Qing has completely reduced her fever, and her body temperature has returned to normal, but a few days of running away have made her look a little clearer, but she is still so delicate and moving.
Zhang Xuan saw that the tears in the corners of her eyes were not dry, so he gently wiped away the tears for her with his hand, and touched her beautiful face lovingly.
Zhang Xuan's heart hurt again, he suppressed the pain in his heart, no matter what, he had to send Lu Qing to her family safely.
Lu Qing was recovering from a serious illness and needed enough rest to recover her health, Zhang Xuan couldn't bear to wake her up, he carefully wrapped his clothes tightly for her, slowly got up, pushed away the boulder and walked out of the cave.
The sun was shining outside the cave, the birds were singing, the air was exceptionally fresh, Zhang Xuan stretched his waist and walked quickly to a stream under the mountain, Zhang Xuan drank enough water by the stream, and washed his face, at this time, he suddenly found a black shadow shaking in the distance, he was secretly surprised, drew his knife and stood up.......
Not long after Zhang Xuan left, Lu Qing also slowly opened her eyes, she didn't fall asleep at all, last night she had a nightmare, dreaming that she and Zhang Xuan were running away on the road, and there were countless people chasing them behind, there were Lu Mingyue and his vicious men, there were large groups of Cui clansmen, and even her father, they were holding knives and ropes, they wanted to catch them back and hang them, they fled desperately, but the road ahead seemed to never end
Lu Qing closed her eyes, tears couldn't help but fill her eyes again, she loved Zhang Xuan so much, but the heavens were so cruel, and she was bound by the identity of a family daughter.......
How she hoped that Jang Hyun would not leave, as he did just now, he would always hold herself until he was old, but he left.
At this time, Zhang Xuan's laughter came from outside, she was stunned, quickly wiped away her tears, got up and walked out of the cave, only to see Zhang Xuan walking along the hillside, and actually led a donkey behind her.
Lu Qing couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, and hurriedly greeted him, "Brother Zhang, where did this donkey come from?" ”
"Just now by the stream, I found that this guy was also drinking water, so I invited him to come up as a guest."
"What if its owner looks for it?" Lu Qing asked worriedly.
"There is no owner, I climbed the big tree and looked around, there is no one around for miles, you see it is so scared, it is estimated that it has been away from the master for a long time."
Zhang Xuan patted the donkey lightly and smiled: "Now you have the strength of your feet." ”
Zhang Xuan felt that Lu Qing was a little unhappy, so he asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”
Lu Qing pouted, "But people still like to ride your donkey, what should I do?" ”
Lu Qing suddenly found that he had a speech problem in his words, and his face immediately turned red with shame, and Zhang Xuan laughed, "One day in the future, I will let you ride enough!" ”
Lu Qingmei's eyes lit up, she lowered her head and asked in a low voice, "Are you serious?" ”
Zhang Xuan hugged her into his arms, kissed her forehead, and said to her solemnly: "This is a promise, isn't there still two years left?" Everything can change. ”
"I'll wait for you...... A lifetime waiting for you! Lu Qing hid his face in his arms, and his voice was quieter than a mosquito.
It was as if all the sickness had left Lu Qing in an instant, and she had regained her spring-like vitality, and her sweet laughter echoed on the hillside like a silver bell, "The big donkey takes good care of the little donkey, and when I go to wash up, we will set off!" ”
Jang Hyun looked at her pretty figure and walked down the hill, he looked up and let out a long breath to the sky, and found that the sky was so blue and the clouds were so white.
.........
With the donkey to travel, their return journey was much smoother, and they did not encounter Lu Mingyue's bandits on the road, and at dusk, they finally arrived at the small river outside Lu's Villa, and the small bridge into the villa was in front of them, and the time to break up finally came.
"Brother Zhang, aren't you going in with me?" Looking at Zhang Xuan, who stopped in his footsteps, Lu Qing looked at him sadly.
Zhang Xuan shook his head, "Go quickly!" Your mother must be worried about you. ”
In the distance, several children ran onto the bridge, pointed to this side and shouted in surprise: "It's Sister Qing who is back!" ”
Jang Hyun took a deep breath, turned around and strode away.
"Brother Zhang, wait a minute!" Lu Qing's shouts were full of despair.
Zhang Xuan didn't look back, he walked faster and faster, and gradually walked away, Lu Qing chased a few steps, bent down and shouted: "Brother Zhang, you promised me, I will wait for you"
Lu Qing's voice was choked, she had already burst into tears, and finally couldn't help but hide her face and cry bitterly, at this moment, she felt that everything in her life had left her.
Facing the wind, Jang Hyun's tears also flowed all over his face.
