Chapter 244: Premeditation
[Chapter 6, Volume 6]
Section 244 Chapter 244 Premeditated
The news finally came from the Beijing Division, Huo Qingsong made a circle from Dengzhou, neatly arranged all the troops of the Zhichong Mansion along the way, and finally arrived at the Beijing Division. At this time, he and King Duan were confronting King Kang and Taishi He in the Jingshi. At this time, Gao Changguo finally pressed the border with a large army and launched an attack on the border pass.
Although half of the soldiers at the border pass were taken away by Huo Qingsong, under the command of Li Feng, Gao Changguo failed to capture the border pass after several attacks. After hearing several victories at the border pass, and hearing that Gao Changguo's army had retreated a hundred miles and set up camp, the people of Dengzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief. There are those who don't care about money, and they even bought some firecrackers and put them clean on the street. The wealthy businessmen who were about to leave Dengzhou also stopped going south, and it was very important for Mrs. Li and the assassin of Dengzhou to have some thoughts.
"Uncle, there is nothing to do in Dengzhou at this time, so I'd better go back to my house. Without me, I don't know what the house would have been. "Lu Xiang'er lived in the Li Mansion for a few days, and then she couldn't live anymore. It's not that I'm not used to living in the Li Mansion, but that there is no 'taste' of Huo Qingsong in the Li Mansion.
For some reason, the closer to production, the more Lu Xianger missed Huo Qingsong. Lu Xiang'er also knew that it was impossible for Huo Qingsong to rush back to Dengzhou when she gave birth. But she just wants to go back to her home, she can feel Huo Qingsong by her side, and Lu Xiang'er will sleep more soundly at night.
Mrs. Li didn't know what Lu Xiang'er really meant, but it can be seen that she was a little thin after living in the Li Mansion for a few days, and she had some guesses in her heart. After thinking about it, Mrs. Li nodded and said, "Dengzhou is very safe now, since you want to go back, go back." Every day, I will let Ruoxi accompany you. Also, I'll send a few more people with good martial arts skills to go back with you. If something happens, there is also a person to take care of, and there is also someone to report the news. ”
"It's still my aunt's thoughtfulness, and Xiang'er thanked my aunt first." Lu Xiang'er touched her stomach, but she didn't dare to hold it up. If something really happened, she couldn't imagine what the consequences would be. Even if it's not for herself, she has to think about the one in her belly.
Listening to the footsteps outside, Lu Xiang'er and Mrs. Li both knew that Sheng Ruoxi had come in, so they glanced at each other and sat farther away from each other. The fact that Lu Xianger is Li Xingzhou's granddaughter is still unknown to Sheng Ruoxi. It's not that Lu Xiang'er treats her as an outsider and doesn't want to tell her, it's really that this matter is too important. Without Li Xingzhou's nod, even Li Feng didn't dare to take it out by the way. In the palace of Zhongyong Wang, even Li Wenjie and the eldest princess don't know, let alone Zhao Chengmin, the king of Langjun Duan of Chaoxia.
is also because she can't tell Sheng Ruoxi that Lu Xianger always has a sense of guilt when facing this 'cousin'. Seeing Sheng Ruoxi enter the room, Lu Xiang'er immediately smiled and said, "Ruoxi, you are going out of the house with this makeup?" ”
Sheng Ruoxi entered the door, first saluted Mrs. Li, and then sat next to Lu Xiang'er, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's rare that the weather is good today, and I heard that the city is more lively than a few days ago, so I want to go out for a walk and see my cousin by the way." ”
"Boss Sheng is a good person, but a few days ago he helped me persuade a few businessmen who want to go south." Speaking of Sheng Yun, Mrs. Li couldn't help but praise it, she was very proud. But in front of Mrs. Li, Sheng Ruoxi still said modestly: "Auntie, don't praise your cousin too much, he is too straightforward, and he often makes others angry, but he doesn't know it yet." ”
"You kid, my aunt met Boss Sheng earlier than you, how could I not know what kind of person he was." Mrs. Li laughed, and found that Lu Xiang'er yawned, and then said, "Ruoxi, it's just right for you to go out." Xiang'er is not used to living in the mansion and wants to go back, so you can send her back, I still have some things to go to the mansion. ”
"Oh, if the eldest aunt has something to do, go and get busy, Ruoxi will definitely send Xiang'er back to Huo Mansion safely." Sheng Ruoxi looked at Lu Xiang'er as she spoke, as if asking why she was leaving the Li Mansion.
Since Li Wenhao left Dengzhou on the third day of marriage, Sheng Ruoxi was really a little lonely staying in Li's mansion. Lu Xiang'er came to the Li Mansion to live temporarily for a while, and Sheng Ruoxi was the happiest. At this time, hearing that she was going back, Sheng Ruoxi was naturally a little reluctant. Although the two families live not very far apart, it is not as good as living in one.
Lu Xiang'er could see the meaning in Sheng Ruoxi's eyes, so she told Mrs. Li the reason she had just given to Mrs. Li again. At the end, Lu Xiang'er also added: "Ruoxi, as the mistress of Huo Mansion, I have been absent from the mansion for a long time, and the hearts of the people in this mansion will be scattered." ”
"Alright then, I'll send you back." Sheng Ruoxi was married in Huaifeng Mansion for a few months, and she was also taught a lot of housekeeping experience by her mother, and she knew that what Lu Xianger said was not wrong.
After Lu Xianger lived in the Li Mansion for half a month, she finally returned to the Li Mansion with Lu Xiu and Lu Zhi. Lu Wei and Lu Yun learned that Lu Xiang'er was back, and immediately cleaned the yard from the inside to the outside. And the two little girls who have been left by Lu Xiang'er's side have been trained more transparently. Zhi said to Lu Xiang'er that Lu Wei and Lu Yun would clean the yard every day, looking forward to Lu Xiang'er's return.
After Lu Xiang'er laughed, she lay down on her bed and said comfortably: "It's still the most comfortable in your own home." ”
"What the lady said is that the slave feels this way too." Lu Xiu and Lu Zhi nodded in agreement with Lu Xiang'er's words while sorting out Lu Xiang'er's clothes. And sent away Sheng Ruoxi's Lu Wei and Lu Yun, and quickly returned here, asking Lu Xiang'er what she wanted to eat, or listening to the two of them report what happened in the house during this time.
Lu Xiang'er waved her hand and said, "Luyun knows what I like to eat, so I will cook two of my favorite dishes at night." As for the affairs of the house, you can watch and handle it in Luwei, and tell me if you really can't handle it. By the way, Lu Wei, you go and talk to Huo Bao in a while. Now that there is a war at the border, Dengzhou City is also the same every day. Let him restrain the people in the house more and cause less trouble when he goes out of the house. ”
"Lady rest assured, the slave will go and talk to Huo Bao." Lu Wei also heard Huo Bao talk about the changes in Dengzhou Mansion these days, and he was very relieved that Lu Xianger had lived in Li Mansion for a while.
Lu Wei and Lu Yun got Lu Xiang'er's order and quickly retreated. Lu Xiu and Lu Zhi were also very tired during the time they followed Lu Xiang'er in the Li Mansion. Lu Xiang'er also waved the two away and let the two go back to their rooms to rest. And only the two left by her side, originally called Apricot and Lan'er, were later named Green Leaf and Green Grass by Luwei.
Lu Xiang'er, accompanied by the two maids, slept for a while, and then got up energetically. After walking around the yard a few times, looking at the falling yellow leaves, Lu Xiang'er suddenly remembered Huo Qingsong again. Thinking of the study where Huo Qingsong stayed most often, Lu Xiang'er turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
didn't think about it, Lu Xiang'er, supported by green leaves and green grass, saw Huo Bao walking briskly as soon as she got out of the yard. Lu Xiang'er stopped and said strangely: "Huo Bao, but what happened in the house?" ”
"Back to the lady, it's not the house." Huo Bao saw Lu Xiang'er, and hurriedly saluted, before bowing down and saying: "Lady, the little one just got the news that the prisoners in the government prison had just made a commotion, and after the officials subdued the prisoners, they found that Zheng Tong was gone. ”
"Zheng Tong?!" Lu Xiang'er was slightly stunned, and instantly had some bad feelings in her heart.
At the beginning, Zheng Tong was captured by Huo Qingsong and was imprisoned in the prison of the Dengzhou Mansion. Because Huo Qingsong was in a hurry to leave Dengzhou, he did not take Zheng Tong away. At this time, listening to Huo Bao, Zheng Tong was rescued by someone, which doesn't mean that there are still Zheng Tong's 'comrades' in Dengzhou City. And Zheng Tong was rescued at this time, not any day before, if there was no premeditation in this, only stupid people would believe it.
Lu Xiang'er raised her head and looked at the gradually darkening sky, thought for a while, and said, "Huo Bao, you go to the Li Mansion in person, and let the eldest lady send some more people to the mansion." ”
"Lady, what does it mean is that you should go to the Li Mansion for a while." Huo Bao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Xiang'er had already thought that Zheng Tong might be unfavorable to Huo Mansion and asked him to go to Li Mansion for help. At the same time, in his heart, he once again admired Huo Qingsong's dedication to Lu Xiang'er. Because a lady like Lu Xianger deserves such 'persistence'.
Listening to Huo Bao's words, Lu Xiang'er shook her head: "The Li Mansion and the Huo Mansion are both in Dengzhou City, and they are the same in which mansion I am." I just came back from the Li Mansion today, and if I go to the Li Mansion again at this moment, what will the people in the Mansion think? I can't put all the hearts of all the people in the house on this because I am afraid. ”
"Little one understands." Huo Bao nodded, then turned and walked away quickly. And before Huo Bao left the house, he still arranged the guards left by Huo Qingsong well. Originally, if this kind of thing was done on weekdays, only other people in the house could go. But now in this situation, Lu Xiang'er was afraid that the others would not be able to tell the Li Mansion clearly, so she let Huo Bao go in person.
Suddenly hearing such news, Lu Xiang'er didn't have the heart to go to Huo Qingsong's study, so she turned around and returned to her courtyard. As soon as he sat down in the hall, Lu Yun, Lu Xiu, and Xiuzhi walked in from outside with dinner. The three of them came from the kitchen, and they didn't know what Huo Bao said, and they all had smiles on their faces.
"Lady, the cook heard that you are back, but he has worked hard to make these two dishes, please try them quickly." Lu Yun personally served a bowl of rice for Lu Xiang'er and put it in front of her. Lu Xiu and Lu Zhi also put the dishes in their hands on the table at the same time.
I have to say that the two dishes on the table look very appetizing. Even if Lu Xiang'er had something on her mind, she actually wanted to eat two bites when she saw this dish. After glancing at her stomach, Lu Xiang'er put Zheng Tong's matter aside and picked up chopsticks. But when Lu Xiang'er just picked up a piece of meat, there was a sudden scream outside the courtyard, and the sound of weapons intersecting. Lu Xiang'er's hand shook when she heard this, and the meat and chopsticks fell on the table......
