Section 104 Chapter 104 Tell the truth

Lü Xiang'er and Lü Hong stayed in Qingshi County for a night, and set off early the next morning to return to Jiangling Mansion. Naturally, Huo Qingsong and Huo Bao are still peers, as well as two large carts of soju. As for Fang Zhe, he had already rushed back to Jiangling Mansion with people overnight to track down the whereabouts of those people.

Sitting on the side of the carriage, Huo Qingsong glanced at Lu Xiang'er, and suddenly said, "Little lady Lu, have you ever thought about those people, or the little lady of Chaoxia has already told you the identity of those people." Why do those 'remnants of King Chen' want your 'soju recipe'? ”

Lu Xiang'er, who was thinking about her thoughts, was awakened by Huo Qingsong's voice and was immediately stunned. Lu Hong didn't get distracted, and immediately said for Lu Xiang'er: "We have also discussed it with Chaoxia before, and in the end there is only one conclusion. ”

"They want to make a lot of money with soju and complete the rebellion that King Chen didn't complete." Lu Xiang'er took Lu Hong's words, and did not have the same scruples as Lu Hong.

Huo Qingsong didn't seem to mind, but he was a little surprised that Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong could guess this. Glancing at Lu Xiang'er, Huo Qingsong nodded and said, "My guess is the same as yours. After the incident in Qingshi County, I believe that they have fully confirmed that you are the brewer of shochu. Also, they may also know that the people of Oshichong Mansion are protecting you. If they do something next time, they may have the idea of 'final blow' and use all their abilities or abilities. ”

Huo Qingsong said very implicitly, but Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong were not very stupid, so they naturally understood what he meant. If their brother and sister are not careful, or if there is something they can do, 'Chen Wang Yudang' will not scruple to do anything with anyone next time.

For a moment, only the sound of breathing remained in the carriage. Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong both seemed to be thinking about something, and Huo Qingsong also looked out the window thinking about things. When the carriage was about to arrive at Jiangling Mansion, Huo Qingsong turned his head and looked at Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong.

After hesitating for a long time, Huo Qingsong said: "Little lady Lu, if you don't mind, I suggest that you move the Piaoxiang Wine Shop to Jiangling Mansion, and it is best to partner with 'others'." ”

Huo Qingsong's outstanding words made Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong a little baffled. But if you think about it carefully, Huo Qingsong means that he wants to find a more powerful partner to distract the mind of the 'Chen Wangyu Party'. But who should this partner look for, a name suddenly appeared in the hearts of Lu Xianger and Lu Hong.

Lu Xiang'er looked at Huo Qingsong and asked uncertainly, "General Huo, do you mean the Liao family?" ”

"Well, that's good." Huo Qingsong looked out the window again and said calmly: "Liao Wenbo is the next head of the Liao family, and now he is in charge of Jingxin Teahouse, one of the most important things for the Liao family, as well as some small shops. I believe that with his intelligence, coupled with your 'wine recipe', the name of Piaoxiang Wine Shop will soon spread throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty." ”

"General Huo is sure that if I cooperate with Senior Brother Liao, those people will not come to Xiang'er again?" In Lu Hong's heart, Lu Xiang'er's safety is the most important. If Lu Xiang'er can get rid of those people, it is to tell Liao Wenbo about the soju process. Lu Hong now trusts Liao Wenbo very much, and he believes that even if Liao Wenbo knows the craft of soju, he will not be the kind of person who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge.

Huo Qingsong also understood Lu Hong's thoughts, and shook his head slightly: "I'm not sure." However, this may also be the way to go. The soldiers of Ochichong Prefecture can stay around your house day and night, but you can't always stay at home. When you go into the city, we can't take care of it. ”

The carriage returned to the tranquility just now, Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er thought about the possibility of Huo Qingsong, and slowly felt the seriousness of the situation. It seems that the partnership with Liao Wenbo to run soju does not seem to change anything, and Lu Xianger and Lu Hong have no intention of letting him get involved.

When he was about to enter Jiangling Mansion, Huo Qingsong separated from Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong, and outside the city, Fang Zhe had already prepared a horse and a few people. Huo Qingsong assigned two of them to drive the carriage for Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong, and he took Huo Bao and a few people into the city.

Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong still had nothing to say, and returned to the Lu family in silence in Huo Qingsong's carriage and a carriage of soju. Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng were a little surprised to see the two siblings come back so soon, but they were very happy.

However, the two siblings' not very good faces made Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng not say anything. The couple spotted the two men driving the wagon moving the jar down from the back wagon, and ran over to help. Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong were not in the mood, so they sat in the courtyard by themselves.

Looking at the extra jar of wine in the courtyard, Lu Hong said in a low voice: "Xiang'er, otherwise we will announce the soju process now." If something happens to you, I really don't know how to tell A-Niang. ”

"No, brother." Lu Xiang'er saw that Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng didn't pay attention to them, so she whispered: "If I really did that, they might think that I was useless and would kill people." ”

"You can't hand it over, you can't hand it over. That's how good it is. "Lu Hong didn't expect that there were so many 'remnants of King Chen' in Jiangling Mansion. Moreover, it seems that it is all coming for Lu Xiang'er. Thinking about the scene in the small square in front of the Jiangling Mansion, Lu Hong understood how high and unscrupulous the martial arts of these 'Chen Wangyu Dang' were.

Lu Xiang'er was also a little powerless about everything now, and said helplessly: "I can only hope that General Huo will be more harmful and can catch them all." ”

"Xiang'er, why don't we get out of here. I'll have a meeting in September, so let's go to Beijing now. Lu Hong suddenly thought that maybe it would be safer for Lu Xiang'er to leave Jiangling Mansion, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought it was right, so he asked Lu Xiang'er with no doubt.

Lu Xiang'er thought of the capital master, and those people would not necessarily follow. If you take a little more risk, use her as bait on the road to lure those people out, and let Huo Qingsong catch them all, Lu Xiang'er won't have to worry about anything in the future. Thinking about it, she nodded: "Brother, listen to you this time." Wait until tomorrow to inform General Huo that our brothers and sisters will go to Beijing in advance to see A-Niang. ”

Just speaking of this, Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng and the two government soldiers also moved all the wine jars to the courtyard. The two government soldiers saluted Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong, and then turned around and left the Lu family. And when Uncle Zheng wanted to close the courtyard door, another carriage stopped at Lu's house.

Seeing that the curtain of the car was lifted and the familiar figure got out of the car, Uncle Zheng immediately turned around and shouted to the two brothers and sisters in the courtyard: "Brother Hong, little lady, Liao Gongzi and Qingya little lady are here-"

Lu Hong glanced at Lu Xiang'er, and then remembered that he and Qingya had just made a relationship, and she didn't know anything. If he leaves so suddenly, will Qingya be sad and think that he is a negative person. Suddenly, Lu Hong was in a dilemma, he didn't know whether to tell Qingya about it.

Lu Xiang'er saw Lu Hong's expression and sighed in her heart. Although she still couldn't figure out why Qingya, such a noble lady, would fall in love with Lu Hong, the situation she encountered at the moment was more difficult to solve compared to this. After thinking about it, Lu Xiang'er made a decision in her heart.

Liao Wenbo and Qingya were very surprised when they saw the wine jar in the courtyard. After meeting Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er, Liao Wenbo took the lead in speaking: "Yesterday, my cousin and I came to look for you, and I heard Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng say that you went to Qingshi County. I thought something was wrong, but I didn't think you were going to get the wine. ”

"Liao Gongzi's guess is right, our home in Qingshi County was set on fire." When Lu Xiang'er saw Lu Hong's surprised eyes, she smiled at him and continued: "These on the ground are not wine, but all soju. ”

"Shochu?" Liao Wenbo and Qingya were even more puzzled, but they didn't ask, but sat at the stone table and looked at Lu Xiang'er. From her tone, Liao Wenbo felt that Lu Xiang'er hadn't finished speaking, so there was no need to ask.

Sure enough, Lu Xiang'er waited for Aunt Zheng to bring the tea, and said slowly: "Xiang'er wants to apologize to Liao Gongzi and Sister Qingya first, it's not that Xiang'er deliberately concealed it." It's really Xiang'er who doesn't want to involve you too. However, I am afraid that it will not be hidden for long now. ”

"Xiang'er, Lu Gongzi, what's wrong with the two of you?" Qingya saw that Lu Xiang'er was very serious, Lu Hong's expression was also very solemn, and her face also showed urgency. When Lu Xiang'er stopped drinking water, Qingya couldn't help but ask anxiously.

Lu Xiang'er put down the teacup in her hand and signaled Qingya not to worry. After that, she pointed to the sake jar under the ground and said, "I made all those shochus." In other words, the soju that is now famous in the Great Zhou Dynasty is its mysterious brewer, and its mysterious brewer is my ......"

Hearing this, Liao Wenbo looked at Lu Xiang'er in surprise, but Qingya covered her mouth for fear of exclaiming. Lu Xiang'er didn't look at the two of them, and told herself about the soju. It also includes being threatened, and even the home in Qingshi County was burglarized and burned.

Of course, being threatened by someone, Lu Xianger didn't say. After all, this is a secret matter, I'm afraid that even the officials of the Jiangling Mansion don't know about it, let alone Liao Wenbo and Qingya. Even so, Liao Wenbo and Qingya were completely shocked and couldn't say a word.

"My brother and I don't know who the other party is at all, so I want to go to Jingshi to hide and see A-Niang by the way." In the end, Lu Xianger said her next step. She wanted Qingya to know, and she was prepared. Or she can have a good chat with Lu Hong.

But to Lu Xiang'er's surprise, Qingya just looked at Lu Hong in a daze, but Liao Wenbo got up suddenly, bypassed half of the stone table and came to Lu Xiang'er. Without waiting for Lu Xiang'er to react, Liao Wenbo, who frowned, asked with a little eagerness: "Are you really planning to go to Jingshi, there is no other way......
