Chapter 354: Each Harbors a Ghost Fetus (2nd Update)
In the dim council hall, the lights had been lit at this time, and the dancing flames swayed from side to side, illuminating the two figures of the two people in the room and shaking constantly.
But those two were much quieter.
The difference from before is that at this time, Zhao Amei has an extra cup of tea in her hand, and she takes a sip from time to time, looking calm and relaxed, while Di Xun opposite her has a gloomy face, standing quietly without speaking, and her eyes don't know where to look.
It seems that the cooperation between the two sides is not very smooth, from noon to nightfall, the distance between the two has not been farthered but not closer, the atmosphere between the two sides has not been tense or eased, if it is not for Zhao Amei taking the initiative to send tea to moisten her throat, I am afraid that this cup of tea may not be available.
Hua Hate Liu and Niu Wangqiu's situation is not better than these two, fortunately, the weather is not too cold today, although it is colder at night, but it is not to the point where they need to add clothes to keep warm, but because they can't speak loudly, they feel bored.
"Why, if the two of them don't come out tonight, we will continue to keep watch?" Niu Wangqiu looked at the council hall, although the door was shining with light, there was no sign of people coming out.
"No......" Hua Hate Liu shook his head and denied it, as for why not, he didn't say the reason, Niu Wangqiu thought he knew the reason, so he didn't ask anymore.
"Aren't they hungry?" After pausing for a while, Hua hated Liu and asked Niu Wangqiu.
"I'm still going to be hungry...... Not to mention Dixun, it was that Zhao Amei, didn't she ask for a glass of water before? I guess she's just hungry, and she's embarrassed to open her mouth to ask for food, so she asked for a glass of water to support her stomach......" Niu Wangqiu felt that his analysis was impeccable, and nodded with satisfaction.
"How come Deson doesn't know he's hungry?" Hua Hate Liu frowned, although he was not satisfied with Niu Wangqiu's answer, but he had no way to refute the other party, so he had to acquiesce.
"Dixon...... Probably because I knew that today's matter would not end for a while before I came, so I ate more in advance, so I lasted a little longer. Niu Wangqiu admired himself more and more, but he didn't expect that he could think of such a reason, and he felt inexplicably happy in his heart.
"One of them can drink water and be full, and the other is prepared in advance...... Why don't you shout hungry? ”
"Just because I'm hungry doesn't mean I'm not hungry, and just because I'm hungry doesn't mean I have to say it......"
"And what do you mean?" Hua Hate Liu was puzzled and asked.
"I want to say, why don't you talk about the meal yet, let's go eat a meal to cushion your stomach first......"
Flower Hate Willow: "......"
Di Xun didn't know that someone outside had arranged several times that he and Zhao Amei were almost all about eating, drinking, Lazar and sleeping, and he had not gone out since he entered the council hall at noon, Rao is heart no matter how much he valued the matter of cooperation with the King of Lanling, but he couldn't wait like this forever, the noble man in front of him was fine, but he still had a lot of things to deal with, according to the current trend, the two sides either did not give in to each other, or they were silent and did not speak, I don't know when it will be a head, Isn't the political affairs he delayed getting more and more serious?
Zhao Amei's thoughts are not as calm as what she came out of, after all, the army of the king of Lanling has been stationed on the border of Raozhou for more than two months, and hundreds of thousands of troops have nothing to do every day, but the grain and grass cannot be cut off, which is already extremely tense for Zhanzhou, which is the strategic rear, in fact, if she can't finalize the cooperation with Guanzhou within half a month, then she Zhao Amei will really have no chance at all - this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen!
Both of them had something in their hearts, and the atmosphere in the meeting hall also inadvertently became a lot more relaxed, Zhao Amei put down the cup, Di Xun frowned, and the two sides seemed to have the conditions to continue talking.
"Master, Uncle is back, saying that he will come over to discuss something with you, and ask you if it is suitable." Defoe's voice rang out outside the door, causing Defoe, who was about to speak, to pause his breath and hold back the words he was about to speak.
Although he was dissatisfied with Defoe who disturbed his speech, he did not reprimand, frowned and thought for a while, and then asked in a deep voice, "Where did the others go?" ”
"Hello to Madame." Defoe answered outside the door. "If it's inconvenient for you at this time, I'll go and talk back to the uncle. You see......"
"No need, I'll go find him!" Considering that it was getting late, Di Xun finally gave up his plan to continue to go deeper into the topic, and after saying this, he said to Zhao Amei on the side: "Why don't you come here today, you pay attention to it in the house tonight, take a good rest and think about it tomorrow morning, and let's continue to talk in the afternoon." ”
"Okay, then I'll bother you." Although Zhao Amei was anxious, she also knew that if she was a little impatient at this time, it would be tantamount to pointing out her death to the other party, and then she would definitely face cruel and ruthless oppression. She smiled and nodded, and then was led by Defoe to the guest room to rest at Deeson's orders.
Di Xun's wife is from Liuzhou, and after the only sister in Liuzhou's old family was killed by Di Xun with her husband, she died and hid in the Buddhist hall in the house to eat fast and recite Buddha, and rarely went out.
When Di Xun was about to go to look for Di Xiang, he saw him come out of the Buddhist hall.
"Father......" saw Di Xun, and Di Xiang hurriedly bowed down and said: "Fang Cai Fu said that the steward said, ......"
"yes, I know." Di Xun nodded, but did not look at the flute, but looked at the dim Buddha hall behind the dim window and said, "How is she?" ”
Di Xiang wondered in his heart, he didn't know why he heard such a sentence, and when he looked up and saw Di Xun's gaze, he realized that the "she" in his mouth was referring to his mother.
"Mother's body is still strong, but because she insists on eating only green vegetables and coarse grains, she has lost a lot of weight than a while ago......" When he said this, the flute as a son couldn't help but choke a little, but he remembered Dixon's teachings and tried to keep his voice steady.
"Oh......" Dixon replied by looking up slightly, and after a while he asked, "Is there anything missing in there?" You see what she needs or what you think should be added, and just tell them to do it. ”
"I came today, and I just heard my mother say that she wanted to see ......the Dizo Bodhisattva Sutra," the flute replied in a low voice.
"What kind of scripture is this?" Di Xun does not believe in Buddhism and is not familiar with Buddhist scriptures, so such a question is purely casual.
"Mother said that she helped people to eliminate disasters, avoid disasters, seek blessings, and avoid suffering from the three evil realms, and said that if you are sincere, you can also eliminate sins and obstacles and accumulate merits......
"Nonsense!" Eliminate sins and accumulate merits? Di Xun didn't believe this, and he didn't feel that he had any sins, and after hearing these words, he naturally reprimanded, but after saying that, he thought of his own advice, and couldn't find the bottom of the stairs for a while, so he was silent for a while and said in a deep voice: "Show her!" Whatever she wants, she can show her! ”
After speaking, he turned around and walked to the main hall first, and the flute answered "yes" in a low voice behind him, remembering the matter in his heart, thinking that Ming'er would go to find it himself to show his mother.
"You mean, there's someone over there?" Flute felt a little satisfied, so he asked what he was looking for, and after he finished listening, he took a sip of mouthwash tea and spit it into the spittoon next to his foot and asked.
"People haven't seen it yet, but Fang Yougang has just sent a message that the carriage is indeed the one that went out of our house." Di Xiang said this, but he was secretly playing the drum in his heart, worried that what he said would be seen through by Di Xun.
In the afternoon, he received a secret report from Fang Yougang, claiming to have found Diyin, and also pointed out that Diyin was maintaining ambiguous movements with a man at that time, although he and the other two took the opportunity to make a move, but after all, it was a step too late, and after being discovered, he easily flashed over, and the person was lost because of this.
Man? Ambiguous? Could it be that the little sister already has a sweetheart?
When I first received the news, Di Xiang still didn't believe it, after all, Di Yin grew up under the care of his family, don't say a man of unknown origin, it is this man from Linjiang City, except for entering the mansion, she has not seen a few, how can there be a sweetheart?
However, when he thought that the other party could not only avoid the sneak attack of Fang Yougang and others, but also finally snatch Diyin away in the welcoming team of more than 50 people in Raozhou, he didn't feel strange: With such a strong strength, as long as he doesn't meet his father, I'm afraid it won't be difficult to enter and exit Difu, right? Could it be that the little sister has been getting along with that person like this for so long?
While praising the person who was with Diyin in his heart, and on the other hand, he was worried that his father Dixun might send more people because of this, Dixiang thought about it, and it seemed that he could only hide it from his father for the time being, and buy some more time for the little sister and the brother-in-law who had never met to escape.
Dugu Duan didn't know that he had become the man of the ugly, stupid and impolite woman next to him, and he didn't know that he had become the brother-in-law of the flute and the flute, he just covered the mouth of the flute lady, and then carefully avoided as the flute expected, and ran away as best he could.
"What are you hiding from me?" Di Xun heard a sentence that seemed to be casual, but it exploded like thunder in Di Xiang's ears, and he hurriedly knelt down and said "Don't dare" repeatedly.
"Today is the day to discuss with that nobleman, I want to know how you can talk to that nobleman, but I am worried that you will be upset after asking this sentence, so I ......"
"How do you know I'm going to be upset when I hear you ask?" Di Xun's face was expressionless, but the eyes in his eyes lit up, and he asked the kneeling flute.
"Guess." Di Xiang hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Talking to King Lanling, what we need is time, and what they need is also time, it depends on who is more stable and can win more benefits...... Of course, you know this, and I thought you would be sure, but when I saw you, I didn't look relaxed or happy, so I guess......"
"You guessed, don't you have your own ideas?" Hearing Di Xiang say this, Di Xun nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's really not smooth, I think that noble person also has this idea!" ”
