Body Chapter 238: Lotus Picking

Suddenly thinking that since it was the General's Mansion, the defense would not be weak, so he looked Liu Ranzhi up and down, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Seeing that Wei Man still knew that he cared about him, Liu Ranzhi's complexion instantly improved, but he bared his teeth, as if it was in pain, raised his left arm a little embarrassedly, and said angrily: "Didn't you notice that my son has always been unable to move?" In order to accomplish one of your things, this arm of this son was almost ruined, you know? ”

Liu Ranzhi had already washed and changed into new clothes, Wei Man couldn't tell what his injuries were, but seeing that he was still in the mood to gag here, and then thinking of his neat opening of the window to enter the room before, Wei Man expected that even if he was injured, it would not be serious, so he asked seriously: "Tell me quickly, which general's mansion is there?" ”

Liu Ranzhi's gaze swept over Wei Man's bare feet at this time, his face couldn't help but turn red, and he hurriedly looked away, and while pouring tea for Wei Man, he said: "It is the emperor's favorite minister today, the oldest general of the Dajing Dynasty, and the mansion of General Wei Juewei." ”

"Wei Jue?" Wei Man couldn't help but search his mind for information about this General Wei.

Twenty-four years of Daxing, across the sea of the East Canada suddenly attacked, the famous general Wei Kun led 100,000 sailors in the East China Sea to resist for three months, finally, the East Canada submitted a letter of surrender, willing to bow down to the ministers, promised to pay tribute every year, however, Wei Kun died of serious injuries......

The Wei family is thin, there are no uncles and brothers, not to mention the old father and wife, Wei Kun is gone, and the only son Wei Jue who is only twelve years old and Mrs. Wei who is over the age of sixteen are left in the huge Wei Kun Mansion, and because of this, the first emperor not only took Wei Jue into the palace and handed it over to Queen Shen to take care of, but also authorized Wei Jue to study in the Guozi Prison like a prince......

In the fifteenth year of Yanhe, the Dongjia State that had been silent for many years tore up the alliance and attacked again, and Wei Jue, who was only 26 years old, led the army to defeat the Dongjia State, and even captured the emperor of the Dongjia State who was personally defeated...... The first emperor Dayue, not to mention rewarding Wei Jue, even crowned Wei Jue as the youngest general of the Dajing Dynasty......

Maybe it's because of gratitude to Empress Shen for taking care of her back then, or maybe it's because of his deep friendship with the three princes, in short, Wei Jue has always been steadfast in the Three Princes' party, even if the three princes were the most frustrated and were rejected by the first emperor, he still stood by the side of the three princes without taboo......

Wei Jue, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most trusted person in the emperor today, but there is a prisoner in the secret prison of the Wei Mansion who may be "her" old person.

"Hey!" Liu Ranzhi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Wei Man's eyes, and asked with a clear gaze, "What are you thinking?" ”

Wei Man smiled reluctantly and said, "Then, have you seen the person locked up in the dark prison?" ”

Liu Ranzhi frowned and said, "I saw it, but the defense there was too strict, and I couldn't bring her out." ”

Glancing at the arm hanging by Liu Ranzhi's side, Wei Man said, "You have done your best, but it was me who caused you to be injured...... But I have to save her, I, I'll think of another way. ”

"Something else?" Liu Ranzhi stared at Wei Man with burning eyes, and said obscurely: "Although I don't know what Nanliu has done, but she is so secretive, and the things she wants to commit are not small, according to the relationship between Weijue and the emperor, she is very likely to be involved in the royal secrets, what is the relationship between you and her......"

"What did you say?" Wei Man's face changed drastically, and he asked, "You said his name is Nanliu?" Did you hear it right?! ”

Liu Ranzhi's eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "I heard General Wei call that girl to be a Nanliu with my own ears, I will never be wrong!" ”

"What?!" Wei Man was surprised again and said, "Girl?!" ”

Thinking of Cheng's mother saying that the person who taught her to ride a horse was a woman, and then thinking of the previous dream, Wei Man couldn't help but clench her slightly trembling hands...... The scene in the dream has been blurred, even if she thinks about it with all her strength now, she still can't remember the faces of the people in the dream, but she remembers the names of several people in the dream clearly, the five princes, Miss Weisan, Yu Twelve, and, Nanliu...... The girl who drifted down the river to the south and was rescued, the girl who broke her long hair with a knife......

The fifth prince, that is, the Rui King who failed to seize the throne, until the new emperor ascended the throne, he never appeared in front of everyone again, and it was rumored in Beijing that he had been recuperating in the Rui Wang's mansion......

Yu Twelve, he is the personal eunuch of the five princes, so he must be with King Rui at this moment......

Miss Wei San...... That is, Weiman...... However, the former Weiman is no longer there, leaving only one of her who has nothing to do with the past, but she inexplicably dreams of the past...... She didn't know if there was really a spirit in the sky, and if this dream was the previous Weimanto dream for help from her, begging her to save the old person she cared about...... Otherwise, Wei Man couldn't figure out why she dreamed of these very real scenes that shouldn't have appeared in her dreams......

He Luo, that is, the maid of Weiman in the past, she died on the spot when she fell from a horse with Weiman......

There is also Nanliu, the Nanliu in the dream, but she is trapped in the secret prison of the Weifu, what did she do......

Seeing that Wei Man's face was in a trance, Liu Ranzhi's eyebrows jumped, and he said quite angrily: "I don't know her name!" I don't even know the gender! What is your relationship with her? If she is so strange, why should she be persistent and save her? ”

"I ......" always asked Wei Man how to explain clearly, she had to ignore Liu Ranzhi's question, and asked instead: "How do you know that he is a girl?" ”

Liu Ranzhi glared at Wei Man dissatisfied, but he didn't ask any further, he only rolled his eyes at Wei Man, and replied to the question: "Although this son failed to save her, you don't have to worry, I think she shouldn't have to worry about her life in the Wei Mansion." Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something interesting, and suddenly sneered meaningfully, and said: "I don't know what General Wei thinks, first the wounded and dying, and then hurriedly looking for someone to heal...... Tsk tsk, and the tone of his interrogation, oops! Didn't you hear it, the tone of General Wei's interrogation of the Nanliu girl, tsk, it really doesn't look like the tone of asking the prisoner, that cautious, as if he was afraid of startling the Nanliu girl, tsk, interesting! It's funny, hiss! I've finally come across such an interesting thing, and I'll have to go and explore the secret prison of the Guard Mansion again......"

Wei Man had really seen the tortured and dying Nanliu, she didn't believe Liu Ranzhi's nonsense, thinking that it was just Liu Ranzhi's bad taste at the moment, she rudely pulled down Liu Ranzhi's hand touching his chin, and asked anxiously: "What is General Wei interrogating Nanliu?" Can Nanliu have a confession? ”

Interrupted from his thoughts, Liu Ranzhi glanced at Wei Man with some displeasure, picked up the tea cup casually, took a sip of tea, and then stared at Wei Man with a flickering gaze, and said, "General Wei interrogated the whereabouts of King Nanliu Rui. ”

For some reason, Wei Man's heart fluttered, she licked her dry lips, and said in a dumb voice: "King Rui, he is not in King Rui's mansion......"

Liu Ranzhi nodded happily and said with a smile: "Obviously! ”

……

The summer afternoon sun is swaying to the fullest, and when you look at it, it seems to have coated everything in heaven and earth with a layer of golden light, which is really dazzling.

Amid the sound of cicadas, a woman in a coarse cloth dress and an ordinary dress led a young girl with a golden head and a blue waist skirt walking on a potholed country road.

This peasant woman in her thirties is a vegetable farmer in the nearby Zhuangzi, and everyone calls her a soup lady, and the girl in the blue skirt is Xia Qing, one of the big girls around Wei Man.

"Miss Xia Qing is hot." Tang Niangzi quickly pushed away a thorn that was blocking in front of Xia Qing, and said with a flattering smile: "It's almost there, it's almost there, it's just ahead." ”

Xia Qing kept fanning the wind with a handkerchief, and squinted a little irritably, looking at the path ahead that seemed to be endless.

She regretted it, regretted that she shouldn't have taken on this errand.

At breakfast, Wei Man only used a few mouthfuls of porridge to stop, thinking that Wei Man also ate very little last night, Luo Ying, who took care of Wei Man's diet, was naturally worried, and was thinking about making some appetizing food in the kitchen, Tang Niangzi happened to come to deliver food, and sent a few fresh lotus flowers, and asked, only to know that there was a pond of lotus flowers nearby, Tang Niangzi passed by to see that the lotus pod grew well, so she picked a few and sent them by the way...... Luo Ying's heart was up for a while, and she wanted to make lotus leaf soup.

Luo Ying was going to pick lotus leaves with Tang Niangzi in person, but Mama Fang happened to come to Luo Ying to discuss the dishes for lunch, it turned out that Mama Fang also noticed that Wei Man's appetite was not good these days, and wanted to discuss the lunch menu with Luo Ying...... In this way, Luo Ying had no time to spare, and was about to go to the front to call a capable maid over, Xia Qing took the ice cubes and passed by, and after asking the reason, Xia Qing took the initiative to take over the errand of picking lotus leaves...... It's just that Xia Qingshi didn't expect it to be so hot outside.

"The girl is so generous!" Tang Niangzi looked at Xia Qing's dress enviously, and praised: "The big lady that the little woman sees is not as magnificent as the girl, the girl must be very powerful in front of the lady in the house, right?" Looking at the girl's dress, the little woman thought that the young lady must be very fond of the girl......"

"Just an ordinary maid." Xia Lan's face was indifferent, but she thought in her heart that she was afraid that she was the least favored among the four big girls around Miss, but she didn't care about it, she just asked for a difference, so it would be good to stay up to the age and let it out with someone......

Tang Niangzi wanted to stammer, but when she saw Xia Qing looking very impatient, she honestly stopped talking and led the way, and soon, a small lotus pond appeared in front of the two.

The breeze blew, the lotus leaves made a "rustling" sound, and the fragrance was blowing, Xia Qing couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Tang Niangzi stepped on a small boat by the pond first, the dilapidated boat swayed and drifted away, Tang Niangzi held the boat while beckoning to Xia Qing on the shore: "The girl sees which one has the edge, although the little woman is sent to pick ......."

Xia Qing bowed his head in satisfaction, raised his eyes to look at it, pointed to one place and said, "That's good." ”
