Chapter 30: Break and Design
——Time goes back to a day ago——
Around three o'clock in the Shen season, Liang Qiuwu straddled the red rabbit horse and slowly walked towards his mansion. ◎◎。
The own mansion referred to here refers to the Shangshu Xie Mansion of the Criminal Department of Xie An, the family she married, not the Donggong Mansion.
To be precise, since marrying Xie An, she has not returned to the Donggong Mansion for more than ten days, regardless of anything else, she is still quite worried about the physical condition of her grandfather Liang Qiugong, after all, although Liang Qiugong's body is still strong, he is over sixty years old, and his physical condition is not as good as before.
Why don't you go to Donggong Mansion with An to visit your grandfather and have a light meal by the way......
Thinking in his heart, Liang Qiu Wu rode his horse slowly to the front of his mansion, and the two servants who were guarding the door of the mansion were sharp-eyed, and when they saw Liang Qiu Wu riding a horse, they hurriedly trotted all the way up to meet him, and took the reins of the horse in Liang Qiu Wu's hand.
Speaking of which, the servants and maids in Xie An's Mansion, except for the people left behind by Li Cheng, the fifth son of the original emperor, are all the people of the Donggong Mansion who came over with Liangqiu, not because of anything else, but because the people who are familiar with it are more trustworthy.
"Is the master back?" Turning over and dismounting, Liang Qiuwu asked softly, the master in her mouth refers to her husband, Xie An.
"Mrs. Hui, the lord has not returned to the house......"
"That's right......" Liang Qiuwu nodded, then reached out and stroked his horse's mane, and instructed the two servants, "As usual, half a trough of forage, mixed with half a bag of soybeans......"
"Yes, ma'am......" The two servants nodded, and one of them led Liang Qiuwu's beloved horse towards the front yard.
[Criminal Department Shangshu Xie Mansion]......
Looking up at the plaque in front of the mansion, Liang Qiuwu shook his head with a faint smile and walked towards the mansion.
[Na, na.] Wu'er, the secretary of the criminal department, your husband and I will be the secretary of the criminal department in a few days......]
[Hehe, yes......]
[This time, the husband's official position is above you, right?] ——You are from the second product, for the husband is the first product......]
[Husband is wife.] The husband is naturally more capable than the concubine......]
[Hey, is this the beginning of education?] Can't you just compliment me once in a while? ]
[This...... Well, well-done! ]
[It always feels weird......]
Thinking back to Xie An's excited look a few days ago, Liang Qiu Dance still feels a little funny.
Having said that, at the beginning, a scholar in Li Shou'anle's palace turned into a scholar in the current dynasty's first-class criminal department in a year and a half. Liangqiu Dance always feels as if you are in the clouds.
But no matter what, Liang Qiuwu was very happy that her husband could achieve such an achievement, after all, Xie An was her husband and the optimus jade pillar who supported the family.
In this way, I can finally relax a little......
Walking towards the main hall of the house. A slightly relaxed smile appeared on Liang Qiuwu's face.
In Jijing and even the entire Great Zhou, when [Yanhu Ji] is mentioned, it gives people the impression that she is strong and domineering, but only Liang Qiuwu herself knows best that she is actually not a strong woman......
Ah, she doesn't have the slightest desire to be competitive. However, the gradually weakening family did not allow her to grow up like an ordinary woman, her grandfather Liang Qiu Gong gradually grew old, and her uncle and father died in the field, and the poor family situation made Liang Qiu Wu have to pretend to be strong and shoulder the name of [Donggong Mansion] Liang Qiu family alone.
This is also the reason why she once envied her best friend's eldest grandson Xiangyu behind her back, after all, the latter's father and brother are still there, and she doesn't need her to support the family.
But on the other hand, this is also the biggest reason why Liangqiu Dance and Changsun Xiangyu don't like each other......
Stepping into the hall of the main house, Liang Qiuwu saw at a glance that the eldest grandson Xiangyu was lying on his side on a mat recliner in the living room. While enjoying the fan dance of the family raised by the house, I tasted the pastries with fragrant tea.
Looking at the lazy appearance of the eldest grandson Xiangyu who was sitting or lying down, Liang Qiuwu couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, no wonder, she has always been well-behaved. I can't get used to the style of the eldest grandson Xiangyu, even if they have been close friends in the past ten years.
"Bang Bang!" Clapping his palms, Liang Qiuwu said to the few family concubines in a deep voice, "Let's all go down......
"Yes......" Those concubines were all presented to Xie An by the fifth son of the emperor, Li Chenglian, who brought people to the mansion together, how dare not listen to the words of Liang Qiuwu, the eldest lady of the mansion, and when she heard the words, she bowed and retreated with musical instruments.
Seeing that Liangqiu Dance was interrupted for no reason, the eldest grandson Xiangyu was a little displeased, and said in a somewhat blaming tone, "It's exciting, why do you want them to go?" ”
Liang Qiuwu frowned when he heard this, looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu Zhengse and said, "In front of the subordinates, what kind of appearance does this look become?" - You are no longer the daughter of the eldest grandson's family, but the daughter-in-law of the Xie family, remember your identity......"
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Xiangyu also showed a little displeasure in his eyes, and said dissatisfiedly, "Sister Xiaowu, you are too wide to manage the land, right?" - Ann won't talk about slaves because of such a trivial matter, why do you care about me? ”
"Just because I'm the wife of the Xie family!" Liang Qiu Wu said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Xiangyu chuckled, covered half of his face with a fan, and said with a chuckle, "Oh, do you still remember?" - Sister will tell you so, this man, sometimes what he says is not true...... Ann just coaxed you, it's good for you to take a chicken feather as an arrow......"
"You!"
"Not convinced?" Xiumu glanced at Liangqiu Dance, and the eldest grandson Xiangyu said with a smile, "Otherwise, you asked An to say that sentence again in front of the slave family?" - Believe it or not? He will definitely be Gu Zuoyan, he ......"
"......" glared at the eldest grandson Xiangyu angrily, Liang Qiuwu snorted heavily, and said in a deep voice, "I won't quarrel with you!" With that, she turned around and walked towards the inner room, and just took a few steps, she was stopped by the eldest grandson Xiangyu.
"Wait!"
Glancing back at the eldest grandson Xiangyu, Liang Qiuwu frowned and reiterated, "I don't want to quarrel with you!" ”
The eldest grandson Xiangyu was stunned when he heard this, then he giggled, shook the folding fan in his hand, and said with a pretended sigh, "Do you think that the slave family will quarrel with you if they are idle?" - Naturally, I have something to tell you! ”
"Business?" Liang Qiu danced with a little surprise in his eyes.
I saw the eldest grandson Xiangyu playing with the folding fan in his hand, and after being silent for a few breaths, he suddenly whispered, "You should know that such a big thing happened in Jijing." The one in the north is bound to lead the army back to Jijing...... This time, it's not the slave family who is cheating and calculating who is who......"
Hearing this, Liang Qiuwu couldn't help but think of the fact that he was calculated by the eldest grandson Xiangyu a year ago, and almost lost to the former prince [King Zhou Ai] Li Wei. Seeing that the eldest grandson Xiangyu brought up the old matter again, a little displeasure appeared on her face, and after looking at the latter deeply for a while, she said in a deep voice, "What do you want to say?" ”
As if he hadn't heard Liang Qiuwu's questioning, the eldest grandson Xiangyu stood up. He chuckled and said softly, "According to Brother An, after my sister discussed with Brother An earlier, the son born to my sister in the future will be passed on to the Liang Qiu family. Inherit the lineage of the Liangqiu family in Donggongfu? ”
Seeing that the eldest grandson Xiangyu suddenly mentioned this matter, Liang Qiuwu was a little puzzled in his heart, thought for a while, frowned and said, "So what?" ”
"So, the slave family and Sister Xiaowu, it stands to reason that there is nothing to argue about......"
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
"Still don't understand? - Oops...... It's really hard to talk to you......" Ignoring the vaguely visible anger in Liang Qiu Wu's eyes, the eldest grandson Xiangyu held his forehead and sighed, then looked up at Liang Qiu Wu, and said with deep meaning, "The position of the eldest woman, the slave family can give you ......"
"Huh? - Really? Liang Qiuwu was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu in surprise, and the anger in his eyes retreated because of this sentence.
"Of course! But not right now......"
"What do you mean?"
Looking at Liang Qiu Wu and chuckling, the smile on the face of the eldest grandson Xiangyu slowly put away, and said with a positive color. "After all, I have been a close friend for many years, and now I am a roommate, but I don't want to remind you to be a sister...... Whether it is the Fourth Highness or the Ninth Highness, Sister Xiao Wu still needs to make a decision as soon as possible...... As you say on weekdays, don't call you my husband a bad one......" She took a deep look at Liang Qiu Wu and turned to walk towards the inner room, leaving Liang Qiu Wu alone in the hall.
Is it the Fourth Highness or the Ninth Highness......
I see......
Is it asking you to make your own choice?
It's really hateful, something that can be explained in one sentence has to go so far! I have read a lot of books...... I've also read a lot of books on the art of war......
Thrill!
Glancing at the back of the eldest grandson Xiangyu leaving, Liang Qiuwu gradually calmed down, thinking carefully about what the woman had just said.
Make a choice......
What else do you have to choose?
With a wry smile, Liang Qiu Wu let out a long sigh.
……
……
"There are two left, right? The so-called [Five Tigers of Northern Xinjiang]......"
The [Wolf Slash] treasure knife in his hand pointed in the direction of Li Mao, and Liang Qiu Wu said calmly.
Although her words were so calm, seeing Youdou's tragic situation, four of the five tigers in Northern Xinjiang behind Li Mao were stunned and didn't dare to say a word.
They felt that things had turned out completely unexpectedly.
Obviously, Youdou had the upper hand before, forcing the woman named [Yan Hu Ji] to not even have a chance to draw the sword, but in the blink of an eye, Youdou was defeated, and was smashed by the heavy sword in the woman's hand in one move......
Turning his head to look at the cobweb-like crack on the wall on one side of the wall that had been smashed by Youdou's body, everyone in the hall secretly swallowed their saliva.
They also noticed that Liang Qiu Wu was slashed with the back of a knife, and there was still such a shocking lethality with a bladeless blade, if it was a blade......
At that moment, a picture came to Xie An's mind: in front of a pig whose limbs were lifted, a butcher raised a knife and split the pig in two......
Evil......
Glancing at the meat on the table in front of him, Xie An felt his stomach churn a little.
Do you want to be so strong?
It looks like it's just a hundred pounds, but this combat power is ...... It's a big deal......
No wonder the eldest brother wants to escape, if the two really fight, the eldest brother really can't show mercy, if he doesn't want to kill his cousin......
"Damn!" Beside Xie An, Jin Ling'er gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice, looking at the expression on her face, it was not difficult to guess that she was hit by all the strength shown by Liang Qiu Wu.
After all, even Xie An could see that although the guy named Youdou was arrogant, his personal martial arts were really not bad, and he was even better than Fei Guo and Di Bu, but in front of Liang Qiu Wu, who showed all his strength, he couldn't even block it with a knife......
Really. Those who have the blood of the Liangqiu family are all monsters......
The eldest brother Chen Bei is a big monster, and his eldest wife, a little monster......
While secretly making up her mind in her heart that she would never let Liang Qiuwu have a chance to meet her cousin in the future, Xie An looked up at the field. looked at Liang Qiuwu suspiciously, facing the challenge of Li Mao's northern frontier side.
Although when it comes to [Yan Hu Ji], the world will subconsciously associate it with being strong and domineering, but in fact, Liangqiu Dance is actually very low-key on weekdays, never relying on his martial arts or status to coerce others, and every time An An goes back and forth between the Eastern Army barracks and his own mansion. When he goes out to train soldiers, he teaches his husband and children in the house.
Of course, the premise is that someone else is the first to provoke her, or don't touch her scales, otherwise, that person's fate. It will never be much better than the unconscious Youdou in the temple at this moment.
What's going on?
Today, what's wrong with Wu'er?
Looking at the Liangqiu dance in the field, Xie An's eyes showed a little doubt.
Although he knew very well that Li Mao and his Five Tigers in Northern Xinjiang were so arrogant, there would definitely be people who were not used to seeing it, but Xie An never expected that person would be his wife Liang Qiuwu......
You must know that Li Mao, the king of Yan, is a protégé of the Liangqiu family in the Donggong Mansion. It was a senior brother who practiced martial arts with Liang Qiu Wu under the teaching of Liang Qiu Gong, and then, when the Great Zhou Dynasty was in danger, the two joined forces to lead the Northern Hebei Campaign, and defeated 100,000 Beirong wolf horsemen with 25,000 soldiers and horses.
However, at the moment, Liang Qiuwu seemed to have forgotten everything and completely stood on the opposite side of Li Mao......
The reason why Liang Qiu Wu did this, Xie An is not difficult to guess, after all, she is a quite [regular] woman. Even if she initially supported the fourth son of the emperor [King Yan] Li Mao, when she married Xie An, when she knew that Xie An supported Li Shou, the ninth son of the emperor, she would naturally change her mind and not help Li Shou for the time being. But at least he will stand firmly by Xie An's side.
What Xie An didn't understand was what happened that made Liang Qiuwu show his desire to break with Li Mao without warning, you know, Xie An didn't say a word about this matter.
In fact, in order to avoid embarrassment for Liang Qiuwu, Xie An never even took the initiative to mention anything about Li Mao in front of her, even if someone else mentioned it, Xie An was also thoughtful and relieved......
Could it be Xiangyu?
Xie An frowned, it's not that he wasn't happy to see such a scene, think about it, as a man, his wife broke up with his senior brother who practiced martial arts in order to support him, how could Xie An not be overjoyed?
What's more, that Li Mao still has a lot of admiration for Liangqiu Dance, what could be more enjoyable than this?
But in addition to being happy, Xie An couldn't help but feel worried about Liangqiu Dance, after all, he also knew that the current Liangqiu Dance must be very uncomfortable in her heart, because to a certain extent, Li Mao, who practiced martial arts with her, was a protégé of the Liangqiu family in Donggong Mansion, and he was also a close person around her.
At the same time, Li Mao obviously also noticed Liang Qiuwu's eyes, and there was a faint flash of wavering, but an unusually firm and sharp complex look.
Her eyes clearly expressed a certain meaning to Li Mao: If you deliberately want to target my husband, then I can only ignore the feelings of practicing martial arts in the same school...... Don't push me!
Is this your reply, Xiao Wu?
Silently looking at Liang Qiuwu's complicated gaze, Li Mao's heart was even more unpleasant than her.
The lord of the dignified Northern Frontier, the fourth son of the emperor [King Yan] Li Mao, has now tasted the same feeling as the eighth son of the emperor Li Xian at that time, the anger, pain and confusion of being snatched away from love......
The entire hall was unusually quiet, and the eyes of everyone present were focused on Li Mao and Liang Qiuwu.
I don't know how long it took, Li Mao suddenly stood up, just when the courtiers in the hall thought that he finally couldn't help but make trouble, but saw Li Mao glance at Xie An with a sharp expression, and then flicked the sleeves of his robe, and walked out of the hall without looking back.
"Your Highness?" Zhang Qi, Cao Da and the other five tigers of Northern Xinjiang were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly helped up the unconscious Youdou and chased after his Royal Highness Li Mao.
"Huh ......" Looking at Li Maoyuan's distant back, Li Xian breathed a long sigh of relief.
He knew very well that if it weren't for Liang Qiu Wu, no matter who was present, Li Mao, a lonely and arrogant wolf from northern Xinjiang, would never leave so easily.
"A fight was finally avoided, and the rest ......" muttered, Li Xian stood up, didn't care about Li Mao's unauthorized departure, turned his head to look at Li Shou and said with a chuckle, "Your Majesty, it seems that the fourth emperor brother is tired and eager to find a place to rest...... If he can, the minister intends to temporarily place him in the minister's mansion, I don't know what His Majesty wants? ”
Li Shou was taken aback when he heard this, after all, the ministers in the palace avoided Li Mao, but he, the Eighth Emperor Brother, was good and took the initiative to take this matter on himself......
Could it be that there is a deep meaning in it?
After thinking about it secretly in his heart, Li Shou nodded quietly and said, "In this way, there will be Brother Lao Bahuang!" ”
"How dare you ......" said humbly, Li Xian glanced at Ji Hong, and then, under the surprised gaze of Xie An and others, the two left the table to chase Li Mao.
At the same time, Li Mao and his party had walked out of the main hall and walked along the jade stairs to Zhengyang Gate, when they suddenly heard Li Xian's voice behind them.
"Brother Four Emperors, let's stay!"
Hearing this, Li Mao turned around, looked at Li Xian with an indifferent expression and walked quickly in front of him, but saw Li Xian smile slightly, and said meaningfully, "The fourth emperor brother is going out of the city now?" Or are you planning to stay in Jijing for a while? ”
"Humph!" As if he heard the deep meaning of Li Xian's words, Li Mao said coldly, "If the eighth brother has this interest, the elder brother doesn't mind asking Ji Jing to see my Northern Frontier Iron Cavalry ......."
"The four emperor brothers misunderstood, the imperial brother just wanted to say that if the four imperial brothers plan to live in Jijing for a few days, the imperial brother has a mansion on Chaoyang Street, and the decoration is okay...... If the four emperor brothers don't dislike it, it's better to ......"
"Humph!" Li Mao snorted heavily and said coldly, "This king also has an old mansion on Chaoyang Street, why do you need to be courteous?" ”
Li Xian waved his hand when he heard this, shook his head and said, "That's what I said, but the fourth emperor brother has not been in Jijing for many years, and the mansion is dusty and no one takes care of it, how can he live there?" - Besides......" Speaking of this, Li Xian whispered a few words in his ear, and Li Mao's brows were furrowed, revealing a bit of incredulity.
"What? - Really? I don't know what Li Xian said, Li Mao's eyes became more and more fierce than Fang Cai.
"Fourth Emperor Brother, what do you think?"
"......" Li Mao frowned and thought for a while, finally nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, for my brother and aunt, I will believe you once!" ”
"Thank you, Brother Four......"
"......" glanced at Li Xian deeply, Li Mao's brows were furrowed, and the words that Li Xian said seemed to echo in his ears.
[Again...... The imperial brother also wants to talk to the four emperor brothers, about the Taiping army led by the six god generals to mix into the northern Xinjiang, intending to set aside and get rid of the four emperor brothers!
