Chapter 5: Into the City
Qi Long sat in the study, listening to the guard Xiao Dong report that Lu Jianxun had already set off to the capital.
Xiao Dong is lean, good at hidden weapons, seems to be a weak scholar, although he is twenty-eight years old, he is the best martial artist around Qi Long, he is not smiling on weekdays, and he does things neatly.
It is the most important Qilong.
When Xiao Xi heard this, he asked Qi Long: "Lord Wang, it will take more than ten days for this Lord Lu to arrive, can this festival envoy be trusted?" ”
Xiao Xixi's face, with clear lines and even tougher, is equipped with a scimitar at his waist, and he is standing at the desk in a black tights.
Qi Long pursed his lips tightly and frowned: "Let Xiao Bei check carefully, although Lu Jianxun's political achievements in Tongzhou for more than ten years are dull, he is a good person, and the people have an excellent reputation." ”
Xiao Bei continued: "The year before last, the flood in Tongzhou, the emperor ordered disaster relief, and the disaster relief money was intercepted by the prince. ”
Qi Long nodded: "His wife Li is the daughter of the Hubu Shangshu, the Li family is an official in the court, but they do not rely on any faction, and the Hubu Li Shangshu has always remained neutral. ”
Xiao Nan suddenly interjected: "Master, isn't this Lord Lu's daughter the one who was frightened and sick in our carriage a few days ago?" ”
Xiao Nan is slightly fat, white and clean, and has been serving Qi Long by Qi Long's side all the year round, and the whole person looks gentler than East, West, and North, and his tone is more casual.
Xiao Xi nodded in agreement after hearing this: "Exactly, the prince also got acquainted with Lord Lu because of this." ”
Xiao Nan had an epiphany: "Isn't it, then our master's red coral bracelet was also given to the girl of the Lu family?" ”
Xiao Xi looked at Qi Long, his face was slightly hesitant: "Yes." ”
Xiao Nan listened, and beat his head: "You said that you don't stop the master, the red coral is a tribute to Hu Nan, the treasure of the concubine, I am not by the master's side for a day, you will mess around, master, why don't you ask me?" Giving it away? ”
looked remorseful and very dissatisfied with Qi Long.
Qi Long looked at him and glanced at him, but Lu Huan'er's Hao arm with a bracelet appeared in his mind.
When I came back to my senses, I was also startled, how did I think that the bracelet was a good match for her, so I sent it without thinking about it, obviously I had only seen it once, as if it was very familiar.
Xiao Nan looked at Qi Long's expression, feeling weird.
whispered to Xiao Xi: "Then Miss Lu is still beautiful?" Could it be ......? ”
Qi Long heard it, looked at Xiao Nan, and raised his voice: "Xiao Nan......"
"Okay, master, don't ask, don't ask, master, we're not small, it's time to think about big things, the concubine urges me every time she enters the palace, I'm also curious, anxious!"
After saying that, he smiled and ran to Qi Long's side and pretended to grind ink, but he thought in his heart that after Lord Lu entered Beijing, he would definitely go to see the Lu girl.
Xiao Bei is a rough-faced man, with a loud and transparent voice, a burly figure, and a violent personality.
Seeing Xiao Nan asking questions, he said impatiently: "All the princes have their own arrangements." Xiao Xi, is there any news from the general's mansion that the prince asked him to investigate yesterday? ”
"Lord Wang, according to the palace report, someone put some evidence of rebellion in the General's Mansion that day, and the Imperial Forest Army received the emperor's dictation and could be executed directly as long as they found evidence of the crime." Xiao Xi said.
Xiao Bei was filled with righteous indignation: "Who killed a thousand knives and framed the General's Mansion." ”
Qi Long said lightly: "This matter is not in a hurry, sooner or later it will be exposed, but I hate that Qi Ning, listen to the villain's words, and frame Zhongliang." ”
Xiao Nan said: "If it wasn't for Na Qi Ning who took advantage of the master's absence in the capital to seize the throne, now this throne is the master's." ”
When Qi Long heard this, he sighed silently in his heart: "Now I am guarding the country, not for him, but for the people of Li and my father, don't mention this matter again in the future." ”
Xiao Nan didn't care: "It's all the lord's generosity, then Qi Ning is a faint king, at the mercy of the prime minister all day long, if this court is not guarded by the master, he would have let his surname Zhao have the final say." ”
Xiao Xi also sighed.
He asked again: "Lord Wang, the mansion of Lord Lu is only separated by a wall from our mansion, do you want to go over in advance to help them clean up?" ”
Qi Long nodded: "It's okay, tomorrow you ask the housekeeper to send a few people over to help clean up." ”
After the order, Lu Huan'er lowered his eyebrows and leaned over to say Wanfu in his mind, Qi Long was surprised, what was wrong with him, how did he always think of Lu Huan'er.
Xiao Nan heard that the Lu family was next door, but he was a little overexcited: "Xiao Xi, do you think this is fate?" Why did Lord Lu's family live next door? ”
She couldn't help but smile on her face, as if this Lu family girl had some great fate with her prince.
The three of them looked at him speechlessly, and saw that the prince had no other instructions.
The carriage of the Lu family swayed and finally entered the capital after 12 days.
Wang Tao, who was guarding the city, hurriedly walked down the city tower after receiving the report, and hurriedly saluted Lu Jianxun when he saw him: "Lord Lu, Wang Tao, the deputy general of the Jinggi Guard, has been waiting for your lord for the past few days. ”
When Lu Huan'er heard this, she hurriedly opened the corner of the carriage curtain and saw that Wang Tao's face was tanned, and he was still as tall and burly as before.
Yes, she knows this person, and she wants to say that Wang Tao, her father's closest deputy general, is one of them, and together with her brother Lu Gan, she went on two expeditions to attack Beidi.
When Lu Huan'er saw her acquaintance, she couldn't help but redden, and she really wanted to run over and ask Wang Tao what happened in the General's Mansion that day.
Qiu Tong saw Lu Huan'er's abnormal expression on the side, and hurriedly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief: "Miss, but you lost your eyes?" Quickly lower the curtains. ”
Qiu Tong also looked out along the curtain, and saw Wang Tao and Lord Lu talking, nothing else.
glanced at Lu Huan'er curiously, and drew in her heart, can you shed tears when you say hello?
Lu Huan'er suppressed her emotions and instructed Dongmei outside the carriage:
"Dongmei, send some silver to the officers and soldiers guarding the city for my father, and say that Lord Lu will let everyone buy wine and drink."
Dongmei answered, and Lu Huan'er told Chunxiang to go and see her wife, but it was okay.
Turning his head to see that his father had already gotten into the carriage, Wang Tao and several Gyeonggi guards stood straight at the gate of the city to watch.
Lu Huan'er's carriage also walked around.
Returning to the capital after three months, except for the slightly depressed scenery in winter, everything is still the same.
It's just that she was reborn, and everything that had to do with her before was in tatters.
Lu Huan'er made up her mind that she must live well!
After driving for a while, Chunxiang got into the carriage and told Mrs. Lu Huan'er that everything was fine, but she was a little tired.
Lu Huan'er nodded, and Chunxiang immediately said, "Miss, I heard from Madame just now that next to our mansion is King Qi's mansion." ”
Lu Huan'er was also surprised when she heard it, and Qi Long's tall figure quickly flashed in her mind, with smiling and serious eyes.
There are indescribable emotions welling up in my heart, gratitude, admiration, and a little sincere fear!
When Lu Jianxun heard that Lu Huan'er had sent silver taels to the officers and soldiers guarding the city, he was happy from the bottom of his heart, and ordered Li Yan to send some snacks to Lu Huan'er, and brought a message to Lu Huan'er to do a good job.
I thought that my daughter had really grown up and knew how to help me cope with various occasions.
The group soon came to the gate of a mansion, and the housekeeper Meng in front told everyone that the new mansion had arrived.
