Chapter 216: Arrival

[Chapter 6, Volume 6]

Section 216 Chapter 216 arrives

Dengzhou is a state city. From the outside to the inside, Lu Xiang'er can't see the appearance of the state city at all. The ruined city gates, the high loess walls, and the scattered people. It doesn't seem to be as prosperous as Qingshi County.

Except for Lu Xianger and her two maids, Huo Bao and Li Mo were happy. When he saw the gate of Dengzhou, Huo Bao took the two of them into the city first. And Lu Xiang'er knew under Li Mo's introduction that Dengzhou was very quiet on weekdays. But on the fifteenth day of each month, its liveliness is no worse than that of Jingshi. Because on this day, it is the day when the customs are opened and people outside the customs are allowed to trade with people inside the customs. Although the place of trade was not in Dengzhou, most of the merchants who came from Kannai would come to Dengzhou in advance to stay and wait for that day to come.

Listening to the introduction of Li Mo, who was riding a horse outside the carriage, Lu Xianger, Lu Wei, and Lu Yun had a simple impression of Dengzhou. Just as Lu Xiang'er wanted to ask where the trading market was, several horses rushed out of the city. Looking at the person on the horse, Lu Xiang'er didn't care about asking, and immediately asked the coachman to stop the carriage and jumped out of the car.

Li Mo also dismounted at the same time, and gave him a look at the people, and they rode into the city. But when they saw the comer, they still saluted immediately before leaving. But Li Mo led the two carriages brought by Lu Xiang'er and walked to the side to watch the people approach.

"Xiang'er, why did you just get to Dengzhou, I received the news half a month ago." Although she didn't wear armor, Mrs. Li, who was dressed in strong clothes, was still much more heroic than when she was in Beijing.

Lu Xiang'er knew that the person in front of her was her aunt, but because of the location she was in, she just called out with red eyes: "Big lady"

Mrs. Li obviously knew something, looking at Lu Xiang'er's red eyes, her eyes were also a little crystalline, but she pulled Lu Xiang'er and smiled: "I'm afraid you haven't traveled such a long way, you must be tired." This time, it's okay, when you arrive in Dengzhou, you can count it as home. You're big, the general and Wen Hao have heard that you've arrived, and you're rushing back from the barracks. Let's go home......"

"Go home." Lu Xiang'er sniffed before revealing a smile.

Mrs. Li took Lu Xiang'er and got into the carriage, but when she saw Li Mo, she was a little surprised: "Second Brother Li, why did you come with you?" ”

Li Mo looked at the people looking at this side, his face was a little solemn, but he just said: "It's a long story, let's go back to the house." The little lady had a bumpy road, but she didn't have much rest. ”

"Oh, let's go back to the house." Mrs. Li couldn't hear the deep meaning in Li Mo's words, and her face turned a little cold. But when she looked back at Lu Xiang'er, she still raised a smile.

After entering Dengzhou, Lu Xianger listened to Mrs. Li's introduction and looked at the streets and houses outside. Judging from the appearance, Dengju does not have the prosperity of Jingshi, nor does it have the grandeur of Gangneung. From the passers-by, Lu Xianger felt a sense of relief, freedom, and cheerfulness.

Mrs. Li seemed to see Lu Xiang'er's expression, and said with some feeling: "Compared to Jingshi, I still like Dengzhou." Feel free here, don't be so careful, don't have to deal with those noble ladies. ”

"Look at what the eldest lady said, after all, Jingshi is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, so he naturally has to pay more attention." Lu Xiang'er didn't want Mrs. Li to be infected by her emotions, so she was busy talking and laughing. And the green micro and green clouds on the side were also funny chuckles, which made Mrs. Li couldn't help but be happy.

Soon, the carriage stopped, and Mrs. Li pointed to a mansion door and said, "That's our mansion, get off quickly." ”

"Big lady, this is what Second Uncle Mo said about 'Zhongyong Palace'?!" Looking at the gate opposite, Lu Xiang'er was very surprised. Li Xingzhou, the king of loyalty, is also a prince no matter how he says it, and his palace is too shabby.

Mrs. Li pulled Lu Xiang'er out of the car and said with a smile: "This is not a palace. After the prince returned to Beijing, the original palace was given to Lord Thorn Shi to be the palace......"

Before Mrs. Li could finish her words, she was interrupted by the sound of horses' hooves from far and near. Everyone looked sideways, and saw Li Feng and Li Wenhao riding horses, driving over one after the other. Huo Bao and two other young guards followed.

Without waiting for his mount to stop, Li Wenhao jumped off his horse, causing Mrs. Li to look at him angrily. And Li Wenhao smirked, and ran to Lu Xiang'er. Li Wenhao didn't expect that Chaoxia, who had a good impression, was her own sister, which made him take a long time to accept this fact. During his time in Dengzhou, Li Wenhao finally walked out of that shadow, but he heard that Lu Xianger was also his sister. Although it was only a cousin, it also made Li Wenhao stunned for a long time.

At this time, Li Wenhao learned more about the past of the Li family from Li Feng's mouth many years ago. also knew that Li Xingzhou couldn't recognize Lu Xiang'er because he recognized Chaoxia. is obviously a member of the Li family, but no one knows. Knowing the inside story, Li Wenhao can be said to have a sense of guilt for Lu Xianger. When he heard that Lu Xiang'er was coming to Dengzhou, Li Wenhao planned to do his best to compensate this cousin who lost his biological parents when he was a child.

Li Wenhao looked at Lu Xiang'er, who had only lost weight, compared with the time of Jingshi, and raised his smile to call him 'cousin'. Li Feng still knew Li Wenhao very well, and when he opened his mouth, he stepped forward a few steps to squeeze him aside, and smiled at Lu Xiang'er: "General Huo has sent someone to bring news, since the little lady is here, she will stay in the Li Mansion first." When General Huo comes back from Gaochang, he will make other preparations......"

This other preparation is obviously the marriage between Huo Qingsong and Lu Xiang'er, Lu Xiang'er couldn't hear it, and her face turned red. Seeing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly said, "Ouch, it's all at the door, let's go in and talk." Standing at the door of the house and talking, I am not afraid that Xiang'er will be tired. ”

"Yes, yes, let's get in." Li Feng obviously didn't think enough of Lu Xiang'er, but he still got the hint from Mrs. Li, so he nodded again and again and pulled Li Wenhao and entered the mansion first.

Li Wenhao, who was a little darker and thinner than before, didn't care about Li Feng's rudeness to him at all, but made a grimace like Lu Xiang'er. Lu Xiang'er was immediately amused, and followed Mrs. Li into the mansion. Seeing that Li Wenhao seemed to have returned to the way he was when he first met, Lu Xianger also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. When she left Beijing, Chaoxia also asked her to enlighten Li Wenhao. Why did Li Wenhao leave Jingshi to come to the border, and how could Chaoxia not know the inside story.

"Come, Xiang'er, this is your room, see if it catches your eye. If there's anything missing, just tell me, and I'll have someone buy it. After Mrs. Li entered the Li Mansion, she directly led Lu Xiang'er into the back house and came to a separate small courtyard.

Looking at the courtyard wall that was still a little wet, Lu Xiang'er knew that this courtyard must have been specially rebuilt because she came. And when she walked into the room, Lu Xiang'er looked at everything that was temporarily new in the room, and she couldn't help the sourness in her heart, and her eyes were red. Mrs. Li didn't expect Lu Xiang'er to shed tears, so she hurriedly took her hand and said with emotion: "Xiang'er, I can only wronged you in front of outsiders." But at home, you are the granddaughter of the prince, the cousin of the Li family. ”

"What my aunt said, Xiang'er wrote it down, thank you aunt for bothering Xiang'er so much." Lu Xianger could see that what Mrs. Li said was from her heart. However, she also saw that Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li looked at her differently, and it seemed that Mrs. Li was much kinder to her.

Mrs. Li seemed to see something, but she didn't have any explanation. Just watched Lu Yun and Lu Wei simply tidy up the room, let Lu Xiang'er sleep, and left. But before she left, in a casual chat with Lu Xiang'er, she said that she would solve this mystery for Lu Xiang'er.

Lu Xiang'er had a bottom in her heart, and she was a lot more relaxed. Sitting on the soft bed, Lu Xiang'er was really sleepy. Although I sat in a wide carriage all the way, it was not as comfortable as lying in bed. Seeing that Lu Wei and Lu Yun were also tired on their faces, Lu Xianger sent the two of them out to rest before lying down on their own.

Originally, Lu Xiang'er, who knew the bed a little, may have been really tired, and fell asleep not long after lying down. And Lu Yun went into the house half an hour later to check on it once, and found that Lu Xiang'er was really asleep, so she quietly closed the door and never bothered Lu Xiang'er again.

Lu Xiang'er and his party arrived in Dengzhou in the morning, and Lu Xiang'er fell asleep when they arrived at Li's Mansion. This sleep is half a day, and I didn't even get up to eat lunch. Li Feng wanted to talk to Lu Xiang'er, and when he learned that she slept soundly, he went to the barracks with Li Wenhao after lunch. And Mrs. Li took a maid ring and sat in the courtyard reading a book, waiting for Lu Xiang'er to wake up. It wasn't until the sun was in the west that there was a sound in Lu Xiang'er's small courtyard. Mrs. Li understood that Lu Xiang'er should be awake, so she ordered Xiao Yahuan to let the kitchen cook, and she put down the book and entered Lu Xiang'er's courtyard.

In the courtyard, Lu Yun was carrying a basin of water into Lu Xiang'er's room, while Lu Wei was sorting out the things he had brought from Jingshi in the courtyard. Before, the prices of the two cars were put in the yard, and before they had time to clean up in a hurry, Lu Xiang'er fell asleep. At this time, Lu Xiang'er woke up, and Lu Wei was not afraid of making a noise to alarm her.

Mrs. Li had already learned from Li Xingzhou's letter that Luyun and Luwei also knew the relationship between Lu Xianger and the Li family, and she was a little vigilant. At this time, seeing the behavior of the two maids, Mrs. Li nodded, but she did not give up paying attention to them. You must know that Lu Xiang'er's life experience can be called a big event, if you leak a little rumor and be known by His Majesty the Emperor, the consequences will be very serious.

"Auntie, what are you doing standing in the yard, but you are looking at what gift I brought you?" As soon as Mrs. Li wanted to walk to Lu Xiang'er's room, Lu Xiang'er had already walked out. found that Lu Xiang'er was much more energetic than when she arrived before, and Mrs. Li also greeted her with a smile.
