Chapter 45: Fate to meet again
"Wait." Lu Linlang turned around to leave, but Su Liuli opened her mouth to stop her, "The matter of clothes is over, I also gave you instructions before, let you help me watch your eldest brother more, what has he been doing lately?" ”
"My eldest brother...... He ...... "Lu Linlang almost forgot about this matter, Su Liuli reminded her, she remembered that day and stuffed her with a silver bag, if this matter is not done well, maybe the money that just arrived in her hands will be taken back by someone else, so she sighed deeply.
"The county lord doesn't know, my eldest brother can't have a good life in the barracks, and the daily training is already very hard, but there are always some people who deliberately bully him, don't give him food, damage his clothes, and deliberately make a mess when he is on duty to make him punished, he hasn't come back for a long time, and he came back a few days ago and was injured, it is estimated that he was also caused by those people......"
"What? Someone in the barracks dared to bully him? Su Liuli didn't want to hear this, but when she suddenly heard that Murong Zheng was being bullied in the military camp, she still felt a little unreal.
Although the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion was not the largest noble family in the capital back then, its reputation spread the farthest, what a beautiful scenery Murong Zheng was in the capital at that time, and now he will actually fall into the situation of being bullied.
Murong Zheng, who was training in the military camp at this moment, suddenly sneezed, and his forehead almost hit the stone in front of him, but fortunately, he controlled his strength in time.
"Okay, that's the end of today's training, let's disband."
In charge of today's military camp training was Commander Chen, who stood on the high platform with his hands in his hands, lightly swept the hundreds of soldiers in front of him, and then said in a loud voice, "Murong Zheng stays!" ”
Eyes immediately looked at him around him, Murong Zheng stood in place expressionlessly, and the others all dragged their tired bodies to scatter, and he vaguely heard ridicule behind him, but he had long been out of his mind.
Commander Chen jumped down from the high platform and walked in front of him step by step, "Do you know why I asked you to stay?" ”
"I don't know." Murong Zheng's gaze fell on the armor on his chest, this Commander Chen couldn't get used to him for a day or two, from the first day he arrived at the barracks, he was assigned to the lowest barracks, where more than a dozen people lived in the Datong Bunk, the time to eat was the latest, and when he went to the canteen, there were often only leftovers leftovers.
In this way, Murong Zheng was often left alone by him, and he didn't even give him a bite of leftovers in the canteen.
"Also, if you knew this, you wouldn't have gotten to this point." Commander Chen sneered, shook a soft leather whip in his hand, and unnoticed it on Murong Zheng's leg, Murong Zheng still stood quietly, without saying a word.
"When you were training just now, you made a sound without permission, disturbed military discipline, and stood for two hours, and you were not allowed to go back to rest until you had time, and the next time you committed it, the time will be doubled!" After speaking, the leather whip in his hand shook deliberately again, and he whipped Murong Zheng's leg several times in succession.
It wasn't until Commander Chen's figure disappeared on the training ground that Murong Zheng let out a sigh, there was no pain in the place where he was hit just now, but the wounds on his body were still faintly painful, after the injury, he did not ask for leave, and still trained with other soldiers, often tearing wounds because of too much movement, and they have not completely healed until now.
He stood alone on the desolate training ground until it was dark, and Commander Li hurriedly walked over, frowning a little helplessly, "It's already dark, you better go back early, no one is watching here." ”
"There's still half an hour left, don't worry, I can hold it." Murong Zheng stood straight, even if no one looked at him, he would be strict with himself, from the first day he entered the barracks, he told himself that no matter what happened normally, he must fight for a breath in the barracks.
Commander Li knew that he couldn't move him, so he sighed helplessly and stood aside, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion was full of beheadings until now, and in less than a year, Murong Zheng had completely changed as a person.
When Lu Linlang left the palace, it was already evening, and when it was not dark, she wanted to go to the market to buy some fabrics and silk threads to go back, and when she took a few steps, she suddenly felt something strange on her body, and looked down, only to see that she had something wrapped around her waist on the pendant at some point.
She frowned and leaned over to take the thing in her hand, only to find that it was a pale cyan purse, on which was embroidered with a verdant green bamboo, the color was plain, and the taste was very elegant.
Lu Linlang thought about it carefully, probably in the carriage and Liu Changqing's purse was entangled, and accidentally brought it down, neither of them even realized that this was Liu Changqing's thing, Lu Linlang couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and took it to his nose and smelled it, this smell matched him very well.
Carefully untie the pendant on his body, and then put it in his arms, and wait until the next time he meets him.
bought fabrics and silk threads, and when she returned to the embroidery village, it was dark, the blue clothes were ready for dinner, and the lark had already gone home, Qinghong was looking around at the door of the embroidery village, and immediately jumped down the steps when she saw her figure, "Shopkeeper, you are back!" ”
"Why are you waiting here? Are there any guests in the embroidery village? Lu Linlang was startled when she saw Qinghong so warmly welcomed, and thought that something had happened to Xiuzhuang, but Qinghong shook her head with a smile, "Except for a guest who came to pick up the clothes today, there are no other guests, I just saw that the shopkeeper has not come back after dark, and I am a little worried, and I am about to go out to pick you up." ”
"You're going to pick me up? Do you know the way? It turned out that I was waiting for her here, Lu Linlang's heart warmed slightly, chuckled, raised his hand and poked Qinghong's head, Qinghong smiled, "If you don't recognize it, I'll make some marks, there are no street lights when it's dark at night, I'm afraid you'll be scared alone." ”
"Don't worry, I'm not coming back?" Lu Linlang handed over the fabric in his hand, "Here, take these back and put them away." He shook a roast chicken in his hand again, "I bought something delicious today for you to eat!" ”
"Great! There is roast chicken to eat! Qinghong was so happy that she almost jumped up, and returned to the courtyard happily, Lu Linlang closed the door of the embroidery village with her hand, and suddenly felt that there was a little bit of home here.
There are fewer dishes on the table today than in the past, Lu Linlang frowned and was about to ask, but Lan Yi immediately said, "Brother Murong came back just now, I divided these dishes and sent them to his room." ”
"He's back?" Thinking about it carefully, he hadn't been back here for several days, Lu Linlang paused, raised his hand and divided half of the roast chicken, and put the rest on the table, "Keep these for you to eat, I'll go see him." ”
Walking to the door of Murong Zheng's room with food in his hand, he was about to push the door directly and walk in, when he suddenly remembered that he always told him to knock on the door before entering, and after thinking about it, he still had to lead by example, so he took out one hand and knocked on the door.
The candles were lit in the room, but no one came to open the door, and there was no response, so she knocked again, and then, unable to bear it, pushed open the door and walked in.
The room was very quiet, the candles on the table were flickering, and there was a meal next to it that was about to cool down, Lu Linlang walked over and put down the roast chicken in his hand, and took two steps inside, faintly hearing some sound of water.
She frowned and took two more steps inside, only to suddenly remember that the screen separated her was a bathing place, could it be that he was taking a bath? His eyes lit up, it was really feng shui in turn, and he was always disturbed by him when he was taking a bath, and finally she touched it once.
So he coughed twice deliberately, pretending not to notice him taking a bath inside, "Brother Murong, are you there?" ”
"You're all here, what are you asking?" Murong Zheng's lazy voice came from behind the screen, a trace of embarrassment floated across Lu Linlang's face, and she pursed the corners of her mouth angrily, obviously hearing the voice but not saying a word, she reasonably suspected that Murong Zheng was trying to lure her to watch him take a bath.
"I just heard that Lan Yi said that you are back, and I wanted to come and see you, you haven't been back these days, nothing happened, right?" Lu Linlang leaned on the shelf next to him with his arms across the screen, and when he saw the clothes he hung on the shelf, he frowned with some disgust, this clothes must be taken out and washed later.
"Well, it's fine." Murong Zheng's response was cold, as if he didn't want to say a word, Lu Linlang was still a little worried, and couldn't help but ask more, "Are the injuries on your body better?" I bought some more medicine, would you like to bring it to you?" ”
"No need." Murong Zheng lightly refused, and the wound on his back exposed outside the bathtub at this time was still hideous and terrifying, but he himself seemed to feel no pain, "You went to the palace to deliver clothes today, did they embarrass you?" ”
Unexpectedly, Murong Zheng was still thinking about her at this time, and his tone slowed down a little, "It's not that I am embarrassed, it's just that the county lord asked something about you, and the county lord has that meaning to you, right?" ”
"Ahem...... Murong Zheng coughed lowly, "Don't talk nonsense, she asked me, what did you say?" ”
"I didn't say anything, I just made it up, and she didn't know if it was true or not." Lu Linlang blinked disappreciatively, and with a flick of his hand, he accidentally hit the rack next to him to dry clothes.
There were some clothes hanging on the shelf, and she pushed it straight down, and by the way, she knocked over the screen behind it, and the only obstacle between the two of them fell to the ground instantly, Lu Linlang stood in place in a daze, looking at Murong Zheng's upper body that was soaking in the bath bucket......
The strong pectoral muscles are still damn tempting, and Lu Linlang can't help drooling again.
Murong Zheng didn't expect this to happen suddenly, he didn't even have a piece of clothing at hand that could cover his body, so he had to slide into the water a little, the wound soaked in the water, and there was a violent stinging pain, he couldn't help frowning and gasping.
