Chapter 2: Nightmares
In a deep white mist, Lu Xiang'er found that her body had actually become the one before the crossing. Moreover, what surprised her was that this body was actually transparent, and she could see the white mist through it. Just when she felt as if something was wrong, but couldn't remember anything, the white mist suddenly and slowly dissipated.
What appeared in front of Lu Xiang'er's eyes was a solemn and majestic mansion in the night, and above the gate were the three big characters of 'Chen Wangfu'. Moreover, at this time, the Chen Wangfu seemed to be feasting guests. Lu Xiang'er clearly heard the drums and laughter inside.
Lu Xiang'er felt the joyful atmosphere, and slowly walked towards the palace, eager to see the scene inside. But at this moment, the sound of a piece of porcelain-like price falling on the ground clearly came into Lu Xiang'er's ears. The angry shouts that followed startled her even more.
"Come on, Lu Tai has committed the following crimes, fooling this king, the crime is unforgivable, and immediately put Lu Tai and Piaoxiang Wine Fang and others into prison, and will be beheaded in public tomorrow ......"
Why is the name Lu Tai so familiar? Lu Xiang'er tilted her head, trying to think about who Lu Tai was. At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the high courtyard wall of the palace. Under the moonlight, Lu Xiang'er clearly saw that there was a little girl of four or five years old in the man's arms. At this time, the little girl closed her eyes tightly, and there were faint tears on her cheeks. I don't know if she fell asleep or fainted.
The man standing at the top of the wall looked around before jumping off the wall and running into the night. Soon, the gates of the palace were also opened. With the sound of neat footsteps, groups of well-trained soldiers ran out of the palace and headed in all directions towards the gate of the palace.
Before Lu Xiang'er could figure out where this familiar scene was, a white mist enveloped Lu Xiang'er again. When the white mist dissipated again, Lu Xiang'er was standing on a small pier. It was darker than before because there was no moon and no stars. However, there is a boat next to the small pier. There was also a man in the shape of a boatman walking around in the bow of the ship, and he looked into the distance from time to time.
Soon, with the sound of hurried horses' hooves, a carriage appeared in Lu Xiang'er's sight. The man sitting in the carriage shouted to the boatman on this side: "Prepare to sail, as long as we only get on the boat, we will cross the river safely......"
Just as the carriage stopped, the sound of horses' hooves became louder and louder in the depths of the night, and there were shouts: "Don't let them cross the river, let the arrows ...... quickly."
Feeling the rain of arrows covering the sky, Lu Xiang'er, who was standing by the river, felt great fear. The fierce murderous aura made her want to run away, but she found that she couldn't lift her legs. Looking at a few sharp arrows that were getting closer and closer, Lu Xiang'er immediately closed her eyes and shouted, "Ah-"
"Xiang'er, Xiang'er, wake up, are you having a nightmare again?" The anxious and gentle voice was like a warm current, which immediately dispelled the fear in Lu Xiang'er's heart. When she opened her eyes and saw the eyes on the top of her head, Lu Xiang'er let out a long breath and said softly: "A-Niang, Xiang'er is fine, don't worry." ”
"That's good, that's good." Lu Erniang seemed to want to say something, but seeing Lu Xiang'er's somewhat pale little face, she closed her mouth again. In fact, Lu Erniang's heart is contradictory. She just wants Lu Xiang'er to recover her memory and become healthy; I don't want her to think about everything and go through the pain of losing her parents.
Thinking that it was better to go with the flow, Lu Erniang gently held Lu Xiang'er in her arms, took a clean hand towel and gently wiped the sweat on her forehead for her. After that, Lu Erniang took off Lu Xiang'er's semi-wet clothes and changed them into clean ones, and then carried her out of the house to the yard to bask in the sun. It wasn't until Lu Xiang'er's pale face gradually regained its blood color that Lu Erniang's very high heart slowly returned to its original position.
put Lu Xiang'er on the ground, Lu Erniang touched Lu Xiang'er's head, and said softly: "Xiang'er is here to bask in the sun, and A-Niang will boil eggs for you." ”
"Well, A-Niang wants to cook two and give one to my brother." Lu Xiang'er's bright eyes and sweet smile provoked Lu Erniang to smile, and turned into the kitchen.
Lu Erniang didn't notice that after she entered the kitchen, Lu Xiang'er's smiling face was pulled down, and she sat weakly on the wall in a daze. In Lu Xiang'er's heart, she was a little skeptical that God let her pass through, whether it was a punishment. Since the first night Lu Xiang'er came to Qinghe Village, she has had nightmares every day.
There are many scattered pictures in the dream, which will appear repeatedly in Lu Xianger's dreams every day. Although she woke up, Lu Xiang'er didn't know what she dreamed of. But these recurring pictures still gave Lu Xianger a rough guess direction.
The Lu family has been in business for generations, and they still deal in wine. In the generation of Lu Xianger's father, Lu Tai, after Lu Tai married Lu Xianger's mother, Feng Sanniang, he opened a wine shop called Piaoxiang. When Lu Xianger was born, Piaoxiang Wine Shop was very famous in Qianzhou under the management of Lu Tai. Lu Xiang'er knew that the Lu family's wine was famous because Lu Tai had a secret recipe for winemaking in his hand.
Originally, Lu Xianger was born in a wealthy family and lived a life of fine clothes and food. But there are unforeseen circumstances, and at the banquet held in the palace of the local vassal king Chen Wang, Lu Tai offended Chen Wang Ye Xiang Shitong for some reason. The invited Lu Tai and Feng Sanniang were taken down on the spot and pulled outside to be beheaded. Fortunately, Lu Tai and his wife saved a person's life many years ago and took him in. At this moment of crisis, he agreed to the request of Lu Tai and his wife, and rescued Lu Xiang'er, who was wandering around in the palace flower courtyard.
This person is Song Yuan, Mr. Xixi of Lu Xiang'er. When Song Yuan learned that King Chen was going to arrest and execute all of Lü Tai's relatives, he went to Lü Tai's only relative, Lü Erniang's house, and brought her and her son Lü Hong out. And with the three of them, they escaped from King Chen's fiefdom and came to Qinghe Village.
"Xiang'er, the eggs are boiled, wait until they are cooler before eating." Lu Erniang walked out of the kitchen with a bowl with two eggs and placed it beside Lu Xiang'er. Then, she picked up another basket and continued: "Xiang'er said in the morning that she wanted to eat vegetable buns, so A-Niang went out to pick wild vegetables. Xiang'er stayed at home to watch the house, you know. ”
"Xiang'er knows, Auntie, go out." Lu Xiang'er smiled sweetly at Lu Erniang, which made Lu Erniang can't help pinching Lu Xiang'er's little face. Although Lu Xiang'er is not as fat as before, she has inherited the advantages of Lu Tai and Feng Sanniang, her eyes are big, her eyelashes are long, her skin is also very white, and she is very cute when she smiles.
Lu Erniang, a niece who is also three points similar to herself, really likes it from the bottom of her heart. Maybe this is the relationship between the blood, after Lu Xianger became an orphan girl, Lu Erniang regarded her as her daughter. When she re-entered the house, it was Lu Erniang who first proposed to put Lu Xiang'er under her name.
Watching Lu Erniang walk out of the courtyard, Lu Xiang'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, Lu Erniang is only twenty-four years old this year, and she is not as old as herself in her previous life, so she is really uncomfortable with her 'pretending to be tender'. But for the family affection shown by Lu Erniang, Lu Xianger is very reluctant, which is really tangled.
"Forget it, since God let me travel to a five-year-old girl, it may be to make up for the family affection I want most. I'm still a little unaccustomed to it, so try to think of yourself as if you were five years old. Lu Xiang'er smiled self-deprecatingly and began to sort out the memory fragments that might have been 'revived' during this time.
The first thing that shocked Lu Xiang'er was that the dynasty she belonged to was called the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the emperor was surnamed Zhao. Before Lu Xiang'er crossed over, when she was in school, her studies were also middle to upper-class. It was because I didn't have college tuition that I entered society early. Therefore, she knows very well that in history, except for the Zhou Dynasty where Confucius lived and the 'Wu Zhou' of the only female emperor, there is really no 'Great Zhou Dynasty'.
This is obvious that this Great Zhou Dynasty is a dynasty in an alternate era. You said, crossing is traveling, and also crossing to an overhead dynasty, which makes Lu Xianger, a traveler who has no crossing benefits, have no advantage here.
Looking back, the founding ancestor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was also because he couldn't stand the unscrupulous behavior of the emperor of the previous dynasty, so he rebelled and established a new dynasty. Of course, Emperor Taizu became the emperor, and he also rewarded his subordinates who supported him. The feudal kings with different surnames who had fiefs alone were feuded four. Among them, the one with the most fiefs and the most powerful is King Chen, who harmed Lu Xianger's family.
"King Chen's power is so great, will he chase him here? Why is it that people are not rich people, and they are living a small life safely, and I will be hunted down and killed as soon as I cross. Lu Xiang'er looked at the sky speechlessly, and then picked up two eggs that had been warmed and collided with each other, and took them out again.
