Chapter 178: I Will Protect Your Uncle
Lu Yan looked at the few words that couldn't be seen at all, and couldn't help but think about it secretly.
Who is this messenger to him?
However, now is not the time to dwell on this messenger, but to confirm whether Su Che will encounter any danger on the way back to Beijing.
Lu Yan frowned slightly, threw the note into the charcoal basin on the side, and watched it burn to ashes little by little, and then raised his voice and ordered Qingcheng, who was guarding the door: "Go and invite the senior brother." ”
Luo Zhixing spent a very leisurely time in the capital during this time, and he either slept in the house all day long, or went to the streets to wander, and he almost forgot that he still had a master in Liaodong.
Hearing Qingcheng say that Lu Yan was looking for him, Luo Zhixing sighed, his junior brother has been very busy recently, and he has not had time to take care of himself for several days, how can he have the leisure to call himself over today, didn't he encounter something difficult to ask himself.
Thinking of this, Luo Zhixing's expression was even more flaring, he grabbed a large coat and draped it on his body at random, and followed Qingcheng straight to Lu Yan's study.
When Luo Zhixing pushed the door in, Lu Yan was holding a pen and didn't know what he was drawing.
Seeing him come in, Lu Yan put his pen aside and asked, "Senior brother is very familiar with the journey back to Beijing from Liaodong?" ”
Although Luo Zhixing didn't know why Lu Yan suddenly asked this, he still nodded truthfully and replied, "Familiar, how many times have I walked back and forth on this road." ”
Lu Yan bowed his head, beckoned to him, and said, "Then senior brother come and see, is there anything wrong with my drawing?" ”
Luo Zhixing was still confused, but he still leaned over and looked down at the picture Lu Yan said.
It turned out that what Lu Yan was talking about was the map from the capital to Liaodong, although the lines were very simple, but the general appearance could be seen.
Luo Zhixing frowned and looked at it for a while, tilted his head and said, "It's probably like this, it's not wrong." ”
Lu Yan nodded and continued: "I haven't been to Liaodong, these are just from the map, so I don't know where the official road is going to pass, do you need to climb the mountain or cross the river?" ”
Luo Zhixing saw that Lu Yan had been talking around the road back to Beijing from Liaodong, and no matter how stupid he was, he could sense that something was wrong.
He turned his head to look at Lu Yan and asked in a deep voice, "But what's wrong with Da Lang's return to Beijing?" ”
Lu Yan didn't intend to hide it from him, but since he asked this, he replied directly: "Senior brother, do you remember the chess pieces I told you about?" ”
Luo Zhixing naturally remembered that Emperor Shun just regarded the Su family as a chess piece this day, and now he was afraid that it was time to discard it.
He nodded solemnly and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it that the emperor can't hold back and is finally going to do it?" ”
Lu Yan opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't tell Luo Zhixing about the note, he only nodded slowly, and said: "I'm just uneasy in my heart, thinking that Brother Che'er's return to Beijing is the best opportunity, and that person will definitely not give up so easily." ”
Luo Zhixing also bowed his head with him: "What you said is also reasonable, although there is no mountain road from Liaodong to the capital, but if you want to ambush, it is not impossible." ”
When Lu Yan heard this, he turned his head sideways and stared straight at Luo Zhixing.
When Luo Zhixing saw his eyes, he naturally understood what he meant, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I know, I will set off immediately, arrive before the holy decree reaches Liaodong, and personally escort your eldest brother back to get married." ”
Lu Yan smiled slightly, but did not refute his words, only arched his hand towards him, and said, "Then thank you senior brother." ”
After Luo Zhixing finished discussing with Lu Yan, he simply packed up a few things, and hurried out of the city before dawn.
But said that Su Man's side, she naturally didn't know what the emperor was thinking, and she was now overwhelmed by another thing.
In the past few months since the Su family separated, Su Man has always felt that the three rooms are too quiet, so he quietly didn't say a word, quietly found a three-entry house near the edge of the inner city, and quietly moved over.
On the day of the three-room move, it was already cold, Su Man was wrapped in a cloak with cotton, standing outside the third-room Pinglan Garden, watching the girls move things in and out, and I didn't know whether to go in and say hello.
Zheng has been closed to Mrs. Su since she was sick, and even during the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, she just came over to kowtow to Mrs. Su when she was sick, and she went back without even having dinner.
Speaking of which, Su Man hadn't seen the Zheng family for several months.
A cold wind blew, Su Man tightened the cloak on his body, and finally sighed, and said to Hongmei beside him, "Go back." ”
Originally, Su Man thought that the third room might go on quietly like this, but when he entered Layue, a thunderclap came in from the third room that opened the mansion alone.
Her third uncle, who was famous for his gentleness, actually moved to live in a temple outside the city.
The one who came to pass the word was a small guy who often ran errands with Su Ji, Su Man had also seen him a few times, because he was short and very clever, so the people in the house called him Xiaodouzi.
Xiaodouzi came to the house, but he didn't dare to go directly to the old lady to reply, but turned around and went straight to Su Man.
Su Man heard the little girl say that the people around Su Ji were coming, and he was very puzzled, so he called people in, and before he could ask, he saw Xiaodouzi lying on the ground with a grunt, and kowtowed to Su Man again and again: "Big girl, please persuade our master." ”
Su Man was confused when he heard this, and hurriedly asked someone to help him up, and someone brought a small pestle and told him to sit down and talk.
Where can Xiaodouzi sit still, he got up from the ground and began to wipe his tears, and told the matter of the third room 1510.
It turned out that the third room had only disappeared on the surface, and in private, the Zheng family was still messing with Su Ji, and he was still worried about the old lady when he lived in the Bofu. At this time, the third room moved outside, and there were no scruples, so naturally it was getting bigger and bigger.
Xiaodouzi said that he didn't know where the third master provoked the third wife, anyway, the chickens and dogs jumped in the house that night, and the third master was scratched by the third lady with several blood marks on his face.
Then, in a fit of rage, the third master packed up a few clothes and moved to live in a temple outside the city, saying that he wanted to become a monk.
After Su Man listened to Xiaodouzi's words, the whole person was not good, what kind of trouble is this, can't the people in the three rooms stop a little?
She raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, and after a while, she asked in a suppressed voice, "Have you done this to the old lady?" ”
Xiaodouzi shook his head again and again: "Where did the little one dare to go back to the old lady directly, after thinking about it, the little one didn't know who to look for, so he came directly to you, the eldest girl." ”
