Chapter 276: Take the coffin
Chu Yu glanced at the sky outside the window, a little strange, "Now? ”
Ah Li also said: "Isn't it too early?" ”
Lu Guanlan has already begun to provoke the hairpin, "There is a fire tonight, if you leave later, will you still have a chance to go out?" ”
Chu Yu then understood, and immediately nodded at Lu Guanlan, "That slave maid will go outside and keep an eye first, so as not your father comes back, you should hurry up and freshen up, and I will prepare the carriage." ”
Lu Guanlan nodded.
Jinhua Palace.
"What time is it?" Ling Chan leaned on the couch chair and did not go back to the dormitory to rest, but baked the brazier in the long corridor of the courtyard.
Ling Yu was by the side, and when he heard the words, he turned his head to look at the hall, and then turned back and said, "It's five o'clock." ”
Ling Chan raised her eyes, looked at the snow on the treetops, and muttered, "Your Highness has no news yet?" ”
Ling Yu's eyes drooped slightly.
"That's it, there's no news from Yunxi Palace?" Ling Chan asked again.
"I heard that Concubine Yun has been clamoring to hold a snow banquet before the New Year's Festival recently," Ling Yu said.
Ling Chan nodded, "What about Concubine Xian?" ”
Ling Yu suddenly stopped talking.
Ling Chan looked at Ling Yu with a hint of inquiry in her eyes, "How?" ”
Seeing that Ling Yu was silent, it must have been blocked from probing.
Sure enough, I heard Ling Yu say: "The grandmother from Concubine Xian is here, it's really-"
Ling Chan sighed and nodded.
She has also seen the Jiang Mama beside Concubine Xian, and compared to the loyal slaves next to her, this Jiang Mama's methods are more decisive.
And the news from Zhuhua Palace is becoming more and more difficult to inquire.
Knowing that His Highness had come to Dacheng, she had already thought of sending a lot of letters, but there was still no response.
Could it be that Her Highness has really given up on her?
But······ The great cause has not been accomplished, and His Royal Highness is still pressed by the great prince on his head, and what he wants to do is really restricted.
At this time, there is very little she can do.
At this time, Ling Yu suddenly said: "Yan Wei said that there is news from the eldest prince's side, let us find out the son of Yunyang as soon as possible, if not-"
Ling Chan came back to her senses, turned her head to look at Ling Yu, and frowned.
"If we delay any longer, the eldest prince will send someone over again, and then we won't be needed," Ling Yu said, his face also worried.
Ling Yu frowned and was silent.
She and Ling Yu were ostensibly loyal to the eldest prince, but the eldest prince was still not at ease with her, so she simply sent Yan Wei to monitor her.
When she arrived in the palace, she sent Yan Wei to Concubine Li on the grounds that she needed to win over Concubine Li, although there was less surveillance on weekdays, but in the end, no matter what movement, Yan Wei would still send a letter back as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh with a worried face.
I don't know if Concubine Xian can inquire about the news for her.
When Lu Guanlan left the house, Chu Yu had already prepared a warm pot on the carriage, for fear that Lu Guanlan would freeze along the way.
Sitting in the carriage, Lu Guanlan suddenly felt a little sleepy.
Chu Yu and Ah Li sat on the side, and when they saw Lu Guanlan's appearance, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.
"If you talk about it, people have already returned, and if you want to meet, you don't have to rush to meet at this moment, if it weren't for the trouble in the ancestral hall tonight, and you are afraid of temporary hexagrams, you don't have to leave so early, so that you can sleep well," Chu Yu's tone was a little distressed.
Lu Guanlan smiled when he heard this, leaned on Chu Yu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then let me rest here for a while." ”
As he spoke, he really closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Chu Yu was helpless, stiffened and didn't dare to move.
Ah Li laughed from the sidelines, and reached out to put a cushion on Chu Yu's back.
At this time, Chu Yu suddenly remembered that it was still early, and if he went to the longevity store to urge at this time, I am afraid that people have not yet crawled out of the bed.
He cautiously approached Lu Guanlan's ear and asked softly, "Is it too early for us to go and get the coffin at this time?" ”
Lu Guanlan just felt a little sleepy, and muttered, "Go to the lake." ”
"Again······" It's a lake again.
Before he finished speaking, he heard Lu Guanlan's breathing much heavier.
Helpless, I had to look at Ah Li.
Ah Li also smiled, gently lifted the curtain and asked the driver to find a lake to stop.
The coachman has been with Lu Guanlan for a long time, and it is not surprising that there are many places to go, and there are all the hours.
Then he turned around and drove to the nearest lake.
Behind the carriage, a horse followed quietly in the distance.
The man on the horse was wearing a black cloak, and he didn't know what he was looking on in the night.
At this time, another black shadow came out of his side, and he bowed his head to the person on the horse.
"In the past two days, the eldest lady of the Lu family has asked Chu Yu to go to a longevity material shop, as if she asked for a good coffin," Hei Ying said.
The man on the horse smiled lightly and raised his hand to lift his cloak.
A face under the cloak is none other than Canghe.
"Interesting," Canghe muttered to himself.
"Is it for Lee?" The dark shadow also came out of the shadows of the alley.
"Yanbut, do you think the martyrdom drama of Lang Qing and Concubine Yi is interesting?" Canghe suddenly asked.
Yan was stunned for a moment, and there was a trace of doubt on his expressionless face.
"Subordinates—I've never seen this kind of play," he said.
Cang He smiled and said: "Yes, how can the people of Yanji Mountain be so leisurely and leisurely to go to the play." ”
As he spoke, Cang He pulled the horse rope.
"In that case, let's go and take a look today," Canghe said, raising his eyes to look at the restaurant not far away, he pointed to the restaurant, and said, "Let's wait here." ”
"By the way, it's often how about Dacheng early."
On the day he came to Dacheng, he hadn't gotten up so early.
Thinking about it, Canghe jumped off the horse with a smile and led the horse towards the restaurant.
Yan followed behind, and sighed softly helplessly.
The restaurant hadn't opened yet, but Canghe stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After the little man guarding the door was woken up, he opened the door with a lantern and an angry face, scolding and saying why he came to disturb people before dawn.
When he raised his eyes, he saw Canghe's face, but he was stunned.
Immediately swallowed his saliva, rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, to see if there was a young lady in front of him who was dressed as a man.
Canghe seemed to be accustomed to seeing such a reaction, so he just took out a silver ingot from his sleeve, smiled gently, and said, "I'm a foreigner, and I'm new to your place, can I make it convenient?" ”
The little girl was taken aback by the appearance of the person in front of him, and when he saw the silver in the hand of the person in front of him, he nodded like pounding garlic, and immediately took the silver and went to the backyard to wake up the cook.
As soon as the little guy turned around, the smile on Canghe's face disappeared in an instant.
Yan who followed behind him seemed to be used to seeing Canghe like this, so he just took the reins from Canghe's hand and led the horse around the backyard stable.
Canghe entered the door and found a place to sit by the window.
After sitting down, he reached out and opened the window, as if he was not afraid of the cold.
After a while, the little guy ran back again, smiled at Canghe, and asked, "I wonder what this boy wants to eat?" ”
Cang He looked back at the store, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Don't you need to light candles in your store?" ”
The little guy hurriedly apologized, and went back to get the oil lamp and lit it.
They are just ordinary restaurants, that is, there are few people who come to eat at night, let alone come before dawn.
In addition, when I saw this person's generosity, I forgot to give the lamp for a while.
After there was a glimmer of light in front of him, Canghe's face seemed even more shocking to the little guy.
Xu is that he has seen too little, and for him, even if he looks at the entire Dacheng Kyoto, he has never seen such a handsome man.
At this time, Canghe raised his hand, pointed to the teacup on the table, and said, "Don't you have the rule of serving tea first?" ”
When the little girl heard this, he was busy and made amends, so he went to the backyard to boil water and make tea.
After finally pouring tea for Canghe, he heard Canghe slowly speak: "Rice porridge is fine." ”
The little guy was stunned.
After working for a long time, and waking up the cook, this person wants a bowl of rice porridge?
Seeing the surprise of the little guy, Canghe took out another ingot of gold and put it on the table at this time.
"Come to think of it, you won't have anything I want to eat here."
The little girl's eyes, which were still stunned, lit up immediately.
Hurriedly smiled and stretched out his hand to put away the gold, and then took it to his mouth and bit it, and immediately smiled, and he didn't care whether the beautiful man in front of him wanted to drink porridge or swallow vegetables, and immediately smiled: "Yes, yes, the little one will go down and prepare." ”
Canghe said again: "Two bowls, white porridge." ”
"Hey!" The little guy responded with a very bright smile.
Looking back, I still wondered that this high-roller had received him, and he didn't have to keep it for the New Year, and he could go home with the gold to marry his daughter-in-law.
Canghe drank tea like this, quietly waiting for the dawn.
When it was time to arrive, I saw that the shops on the street were opening one after another.
Canghe also got up and put on his cloak again.
turned around and commanded the little servant, "This bowl of porridge is hot, and if someone comes later, they will say that they will send it." ”
After that, he went straight out of the restaurant.
The little girl was stunned for a moment and looked at the two bowls of white porridge on the table.
One bowl was only moved, and the other bowl was already cold when it was set aside.
Look at the man who just went out, but he was already gone.
Seeing this, the little girl was shocked, and hurriedly took out the gold in his arms to take a look, and saw that the gold was still there, and it was still gold, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
To him, the man's behavior was like some god or ghost who came to the world at night.
Fortunately, the gold given was real, and it did not turn into a stone toad.
Inside the lakeside carriage.
Ah Li lifted the side curtain and saw that the sky was getting brighter, and just thought about how to wake up Lu Guanlan.
saw that Lu Guanlan had woken up and was rubbing his eyes and yawning.
Chu Yu was finally able to get out, raised his hand and rubbed his shoulder, and said, "Please go out next time when you have slept enough." ”
Lu Guanlan smiled and asked, "When?" ”
Ah Li put down the side curtain and said, "It's dawn, and it's time for the longevity store to open." ”
Lu Guanlan nodded, but suddenly remembered something, and said, "Since you all get up so early, it's better to have breakfast and go again." ”
As he spoke, he lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.
Ah Li followed 10,000 carefully, thinking that Lu Guanlan had just woken up, and suddenly came out of the warm carriage, for fear that Lu Guanlan would suddenly suffer from the cool breeze.
So he hurriedly took the big drums and followed them out.
After getting out of the carriage, Lu Guanlan looked around, and when he looked back at a restaurant, he turned around and smiled at Ah Li, "What do you think of it?" ”
Ah Li reluctantly stepped forward to put a fox coat on Lu Guanlan, and said angrily: "Don't you want to bring a copy to the general." ”
Lu Guanlan smiled when he heard this.
Yes and no.
It's just that for some reason, I'm in a good mood today, so I suddenly thought that if I could catch up, I could have a meal with him.
Maybe I haven't seen him for too long, and maybe I want to see him again today.
