Chapter 307: Assisting Mingjun
Lu Zhiyan fell asleep for too long, a little foggy, he didn't know where he was when he opened his eyes, his brain was stiff for a moment, his memory stayed outside Ling'an City, that dangerous place, at the moment of death, thinking of that scene, his cloudy eyes suddenly widened, and he became clear all of a sudden, and then, Duan Xiao's face appeared in his sight, and Lu Zhiyan was stunned.
Duan Xiao looked at his reaction, squinted his eyes and said, "It seems that he is really awake now." ”
After that, he turned around, found a chair to sit on, took Duan Yue from Wufang's arms, and sat there playing finger wrenching games with his daughter as if he didn't care about himself.
Duan Xiao was originally in front of Lu Zhiyan's bed, Lu Zhiyan couldn't see the scene behind him, and as soon as he left, Lu Zhiyan saw it.
There are many people in front of him, Song Fanhua, Shen Jiu, Qifei, Yechen, Lu Runing, Song Zhaozhao, Chunjing, Chunxiang, and two little novices, many people.
Moreover, this is not the bottom of a cliff, it is not a hell.
Although he didn't know where this place was, seeing Song Zhaozhao standing in front of him unharmed, Lu Zhiyan's eyes were slightly red, and he shouted in a low voice, "Zhaozhao." ”
He thought she was dead.
Falling down from such a high mountain, she has no martial arts and can only die.
However, she did not die.
At that time, it was Lu Zilun, his eldest brother, who dragged Song Zhaozhao to his death.
Song Zhaozhao saw that Lu Zhiyan had woken up, his face was also full of joy, his eyes were red, he came to his bed, looked at him and said, "I'm here." ”
Lu Zhiyan stretched out his hand and wanted to hold her, but he reached halfway, clenched it tightly, and withdrew it.
Lu Runing sat over, reached out to hold his outstretched hand, wiped the tears in his eyes with a handkerchief, and said with a smile, "You woke up, you scared the second sister to death." ”
Lu Zhiyan's voice choked and shouted, "Second sister." ”
Lu Runing said, "Is there anything uncomfortable?" Have you slept for a long time, are you hungry? Would you like to eat? ”
Lu Zhiyan shook his head lightly and asked her, "What about the eldest brother?" ”
Lu Runing's tearful face froze with joy, sadness welled up in her heart, she pulled Lu Zhiyan's hand tightly, but she didn't respond, put her wrist down, let go of Lu Zhiyan's hand, put it in the quilt, and said to him, "You just woke up, your body is important, after today, I will take you to see the eldest brother tomorrow." ”
Lu Zhiyan looked at her puzzled.
Lu Runing didn't give him a solution, he finally woke up, what if he heard that his eldest brother was dead and fainted again?
Song Fanhua glanced at Lu Zhiyan, and then glanced at Duan Xiao, who was sitting there with a calm momentum and a leisurely atmosphere to play with her daughter, her eyes narrowed, she stepped forward and said to Lu Zhiyan, "I finally walked back from the ghost gate, don't think about the past, live the rest of your life, you like to travel all over the world, you don't like to be restrained, now that the Lu clan is not here, you are no longer bound by this, your eldest brother ...... He certainly wants you to be healthy and happy, and to live the life you want to live. ”
Before Lu Zhiyan could recover from Song Fanhua's words, Lu Runing raised his head and glared at her, "Don't bother you!" ”
Song Fanhua pursed her lips and rolled her eyes, "Who wants to spend your heart!" ”
As she spoke, she turned away from the bedside as well.
Lu Zhiyan is not stupid, it can be said that he is extremely smart, Lu Runing is reluctant to tell Lu Zilun's whereabouts, and Song Fanhua said again......
Lu Zhiyan immediately guessed that Lu Zilun was likely to be dead.
He's dead!
Lu Zhiyan's lips trembled, and he sat up suddenly, he got up too violently, his head was a little dizzy, and he fell down uncontrollably, his head hit the pillow, it didn't hurt, but it buzzed.
Lu Runing was shocked, "Stop!" ”
Song Zhaozhao also shouted in a low voice, "Lu Zhiyan! ”
Lu Zhiyan was lying on the bed, his eyes were open and looking at the roof, the roof was simple wood, but the top plate was embedded with a portrait of gods and Buddhas, and the glaze was extremely thick, Lu Zhiyan swept to other places, and found that there were many things related to Buddhism in the house, he took a slow breath and asked Lu Runing, "We are in the temple?" ”
Lu Runing said, "Well, in Wanqing Temple. ”
Lu Zhiyan closed his eyes and said, "Is the eldest brother buried here?" ”
Lu Runing's nose was dyed with a sobbing sound, and he responded in a low voice, "Yes." After that, he said, "I don't want to hide it from you, I'm afraid that you won't be able to withstand this blow, and if you faint again, the eldest brother is no longer there, and you can't have another accident." ”
Lu Zhiyan slowly sat up with his arms propped up, glanced at Song Zhaozhao, then at Duan Xiao, Song Fanhua, and Wufang, and said softly, "I'll go see the eldest brother." ”
Lu Runing said, "I'll take you over later." ”
Lu Zhiyan said with a bloodless face, "Go now." ”
Lu Runing was worried, "Your body ......"
Lu Zhiyan said, "It's okay. ”
He lifted the quilt and got up, probably because he had been lying down for too long, his body was a little weak, and when he got out of bed, he shook it, and Lu Runing immediately supported him.
Lu Zhiyan was a little panting, feeling weak and weak, he really wanted to go to see Lu Zilun now, but when he got out of bed, he realized that his body didn't seem to be as good as he imagined, he paused, eased his top-heavy malignancy, and asked weakly, "How many years have I been lying down?" ”
When he went out from Ling'an City, Song Fanhua and Duan Xiao had not yet married, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that their child was so old, which showed that he had really been lying down for a long time.
Lu Runing said, "It's been five or six years. ”
Lu Zhiyan smiled bitterly, "For so long, it seems that half of my life has been lying down." He folded his arms and sat down on the bed again.
Lu Runing asked him, "Are you hungry?" ”
Lu Zhiyan was not hungry, even if he was hungry, he couldn't eat at this time, but if he didn't eat, his body would be weak, so he nodded and said, "Second sister, help me get some food." ”
Lu Runing went to call the little novice and asked them to prepare a meal.
Lu Zhiyan lay in bed for five or six years, unable to eat, Lu Runing fed him clear soup, there was a little novice in the temple, washing and shaving him every day, his face did not change, but in five or six years, he only drank clear soup and lost weight.
Lu Runing felt very sorry for him, and Song Zhaozhao was also very distressed.
After the meal was ready, Lu Zhiyan sat on the bed and ate, because he had no appetite, he stuffed it little by little, and barely finished eating a large bowl of somen noodles, as if he had calories in his body and his strength had increased.
He handed the empty bowl to Lu Runing, who took it and gave it to the little novice at the door.
Lu Zhiyan leaned on the bed and asked Lu Runing what had happened in the past five or six years, and Lu Runing told him.
While the sister and brother were talking, Song Zhaozhao sat aside.
Song Fanhua and Duan Xiao also sat on the side, Duan Yue couldn't bear it anymore after staying in Duan Xiao's arms for a while, pestering Duan Xiao and asking him to take her out, Duan Xiao took her out of the door, and by the way, Duan Hua also took Duan Hua away, Duan Heng and Xu Qianhuai also followed, as well as Wufang and Yechen, Shen Jiu and Qifei stayed behind Song Fanhua.
In five or six years, there are many things, but there are very few major events.
Lu Runing only picked important things and said, but it didn't take time, and the time for the two pillars of incense was over.
Lu Zhiyan listened, and he didn't say anything for a long time, and after a while, he asked Song Fanhua out loud, "Is Ye Zhiqiu still in your Song Mansion?" ”
Song Fanhua raised her eyebrows, and asked with a shallow smile, "Ask this question, do you want to seek revenge on him?" ”
Lu Zhi said, "No. ”
Song Fanhua said, "He is not in the Song Mansion, he took my fourth cousin and Ye Yihan back to Yiye Zhiqiu Pavilion." ”
Lu Zhi asked puzzledly, "Ye Yihan?" ”
Song Fanhua said, "My nephew, Ye Zhiqiu and my fourth cousin's child. ”
Lu Zhiyan was stunned.
Song Fanhua moved her buttocks, changed her sitting position, raised her eyes and said, "The death of a loved one is indeed an extremely difficult thing to accept, but you also know very well that you are not Ye Zhiqiu's opponent, don't send him to death easily, and your eldest brother's death is not because of Ye Zhiqiu, but because of the grievances between your Lu family and the Wen family, this grievance is not provoked by the Wen family, but your Lu family, in the final analysis, all the sins are caused by yourself, and now Wen Qianye also has his own home, he named his son Wen Qihang, which means to set sail again, He will no longer pursue the tragedy of their Wen clan being wiped out, nor will he pursue the debts of your Lu Mansion, so don't think about it, one Lu Zilun has offset the entire Wen clan, which is already very lucky. ”
Lu Zhiyan leaned on the head of the bed, listening to Song Fanhua's words, silent.
Lu Runing's eyes were obscure, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Song Fanhua glanced at their sister and brother, got up, and left.
Shen Jiu and Qi Fei followed.
Song Zhaozhao saw Song Fanhua leaving, and also got up.
The two sisters walked out of the wing room and walked side by side on the wooden corridor, Song Fanhua asked Song Zhaozhao, "Lu Zhiyan woke up, are you still staying?" ”
Song Zhaozhao said, "I'll go down the mountain at night to find my eldest brother and sister-in-law." ”
Song Fanhua smiled and said, "Lu Zhiyan has just woken up, you take care of him for two days before going down the mountain." ”
Song Zhaozhao said, "Now that he is awake, I will not stay any longer, Lu Runing takes care of him on the mountain, it is enough." ”
Song Fanhua turned sideways, looked at her, and sighed, "Didn't you hear what Lu Zhiyan asked just now?" I'm worried that he will do stupid things, with you by his side, he will take care of you and won't go to Ye Zhiqiu. ”
As he spoke, he turned around and continued to walk forward, going to find Duan Xiao and Duan Heng, Duan Hua, and Duan Yue, and said as he walked, "With Lu Zhiyan's heart and IQ, he may not have the idea of revenge, but Lu Runing can't say for sure, you stay in the temple, so that Lu Zhiyan will not be teased and instigated by Lu Runing, killing people is not as simple as a knife in and a knife out, it is to pay for his life, and you, you don't want him to die, right?" ”
Song Zhaozhao frowned.
Song Fanhua stretched out her hand and patted her shoulder, "I just came out of my eldest brother and sister-in-law, they are all very good, Wanqing Temple is not far from Yuncheng, you can go back every other day, so that you can do both." ”
Song Zhaozhao's forehead twitched, "I run at two ends like this, I can't die of exhaustion?" ”
Song Fanhua said with a smile, "How can you be tired, you can take Lu Zhiyan with you when you go down the mountain, if you are coquettish to him, he will be willing to do anything for you, and he may not be able to carry you down the mountain." ”
Song Zhaozhao was stunned.
Song Fanhua turned around with a smile and left.
This time, Song Zhaozhao didn't keep up.
Song Fanhua found Duan Xiao and them, and went down the mountain directly, and after getting into the carriage, Duan Xiao wiped the sweat on Duan Yue's little face and forehead with a soft white handkerchief, glanced at Song Fanhua, and said, "If Lu Zhiyan has any intention of taking revenge, whether this object is Wen Qianye or Ye Zhiqiu, I will not tolerate him." ”
Song Fanhua also wiped Duan Hua's sweat with a handkerchief, the little guy was playing with a red face, it seemed that she liked the Buddha bell in the temple, she said while wiping, "With my fifth cousin here, Lu Zhiyan won't have that kind of thought." ”
Duan Xiao pursed his lips, "Lu Zhiyan didn't say anything, what about Lu Runing?" ”
Song Fanhua said with a smile, "If Lu Runing really has it, you can do whatever you want." ”
Duan Xiao squinted, put away the handkerchief, and coaxed Duan Yue to sleep.
Duan Heng sat on the side, crossed his arms, closed his eyes, and looked old and steady.
Xu Qianhuai is too.
The carriage fell silent and drove all the way to the Emerald Snow Villa.
In Wanqing Temple, Song Zhaozhao returned to the wing room after Song Fanhua left, Lu Runing was not there, probably went out to find Qingzhang, Lu Zhiyan still maintained the posture of leaning against the head of the bed, Song Zhaozhao walked over and slowly sat down next to the edge of the bed.
When Lu Zhiyan heard the voice, he opened his eyes and saw that it was Song Zhaozhao, he looked at her deeply, and asked, "Who rescued you at that time?" ”
Song Zhaozhao said, "Qin Mo." ”
Lu Zhiyan let out a soft sigh, and was quite stunned, his voice was slightly raised, repeating, "Qin Mo? ”
Song Zhaozhao said, "Yes." ”
Lu Zhiyan said, "The legendary commander of the Thirteen Flying Horses, Qin Mo? ”
Song Zhaozhao snorted.
Lu Zhiyan asked in wonder, "Why did he save you?" He was around at that time? ”
Song Zhaozhao said, "Probably, as for why he saved me...... Song Zhaozhao paused, and told him about the fact that he had saved Qin Mo, anyway, Lu Zhiyan didn't say anything for a long time, and after a while, he looked at her and asked, "Do you like him?" ”
Song Zhaozhao was stunned and asked funny, "Why do you say that?" ”
Lu Zhiyan said, "Why did you save him if you didn't like him?" ”
Song Zhaozhao said, "I was forced at the time. ”
Lu Zhiyan didn't ask anymore, he had been lying down for so many years, and he didn't know that Song Zhaozhao's heart was still in him.
At that time in Hengzhou, he and Song Zhaozhao were in love, and there was no doubt at all.
But in the capital, this kind of mutual affection was questioned, although Lu Zhiyan could feel that Song Zhaozhao rejected him on his face, but he still accepted it in his heart.
But now, he is no longer sure.
However, when he saw her in Wanqing Temple and learned from Lu Runing that Song Zhaozhao came to save him, Lu Zhiyan was still very happy.
It's just that this joy doesn't seem to be on top compared to the loss he is facing now.
Lu Runing did go to find Qingzhang, because Lu Zhiyan wanted to see Lu Zilun, and Lu Zilun was buried in the forbidden place where the monks of Wanqing Temple died, and if you want to go in, you have to be led by Qingzhang.
Lu Runing invited Qingzhang over.
Qingzhang didn't bring any little novices, nor did he bring any disciples in the temple, so he came alone, and when he saw Lu Zhiyan waking up, he smiled and clasped his palms together, and said, "It's good to wake up." Then he turned and went out.
Lu Zhiyan got out of bed, put on a coat, followed Lu Runing, and went.
Song Zhaozhao thought about it and followed.
The four of them went to Lu Zilun's tomb, and a pot of anchovy grass was placed in front of the tomb, the color of the leaves was very fresh and green, this anchovy grass was Lu Zilun's favorite before his death, Lu Zhiyan squatted, reached out and touched the full turquoise leaves, and asked Lu Runing, "Did you put it in front of the eldest brother's tomb?" ”
Lu Runing said, "No, it's cloud...... It's the emperor. ”
Lu Zhiyan sighed and looked up at the tomb.
There is a tombstone in front of the tomb, but there are no words.
Lu Zhiyan stretched out his hand and touched the tombstone, thinking about Lu Zilun's life, thinking about the status of the Lu Mansion in the imperial power, thinking about the ancient inheritance of his Lu clan's Wu clan, and in the end, he fell into a buried corpse temple, and carved the monument without words, how ironic!
Since the birth of the Wu clan, for thousands of years, the Wu clan has been incompatible with Buddhism.
But today, the inheritor in charge of the genealogy of the Wu clan is buried in the land of the Buddha's family, and the Buddhism family has also accepted it, is this fate?
Buddhism pays attention to fate, Lu Zhiyan thought to himself, this is fine, in this way, the eldest brother will be reincarnated, and he will be pure.
Lu Zhiyan sat in front of Lu Zilun's tomb for a long time, no one knew what he was thinking and what he was thinking.
Lu Runing accompanied him.
Song Zhaozhao accompanied him.
Qingzhang also accompanied him.
When he got up, Qingzhang glanced at him and took them out again.
Qingzhang didn't appear again after this time.
Lu Zhiyan recuperated in the temple for three days and then went down the mountain.
Before going down the mountain, Lu Runing persuaded him for a long time and asked him not to go down the mountain, Lu Zhiyan asked her, "What is the biggest wish of the eldest brother before his death?" ”
Lu Runing blinked and said, "Help Yunsu ascend the throne." ”
Lu Zhiyan shook his head, "No, his greatest wish is to assist Mingjun." ”
Lu Zhiyan raised his head, looked at the sky above the temple on the eaves in the early winter of November, listened to the north wind howling, the temple bells rolling, watching the white clouds churning, and the road of life approached, he said, "What he didn't finish, I will finish it for him." ”
After Lu Zhiyan went down the mountain, he went to find Song Shixian.
Coincidentally, Song Zhaozhao also went down the mountain to return to the Song Mansion, and the two accompanied him along the way.
Lu Runing didn't go down the mountain, Lu Zhiyan didn't persuade her, she wanted to accompany Lu Zilun, so he followed her.
Lu Zhiyan went to the Song Mansion, Song Shixian was so happy when he saw him, he pulled him into the study, and stayed in the mansion to eat at night, and he didn't let him go after eating, so he cleaned up a yard for him to live in.
Lu Zhiyan did not settle down in Beijing, and he didn't refuse, so he stayed.
Lu Zhiyan came to find Song Shixian, he wanted Song Shixian to take him with him when he entered the palace tomorrow, he wanted to see Yunsu, Song Shixian responded, and Song Shixian took him into the palace the next day.
The eight emperors do not need to go to the court, they are under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu Order, the chief is Su Jin, and every time he represents the court, Su Jin comes back, if there is a major notice, he will organize a meeting to explain the affairs of the court that day.
There was no meeting today, and Su Jin entered the door of his office after leaving the court.
Song Shixian took Lu Zhiyan to the imperial study.
Gonggong Lei was guarding the door of the imperial study, and when he saw Song Shixian coming, he was very polite, and shouted with a smile, "Lord Song, come to the emperor for something?" ”
Song Shixian said, "Well, help me pass it on to the emperor, and just say that Lu Zhiyan will meet you." ”
Father-in-law Lei was an old man from Su Mansion, so he naturally knew who Lu Zhiyan was, glanced at Lu Zhiyan behind Song Shixian, and immediately went in to report.
After a while, the door of the imperial study was opened, but it was not Gonggong Lei who came out, but Yunsu.
Lei Gong guarded the door on one side, and Mo Yan followed behind Yun Su.
Yun Su's face was obviously excited, standing outside the tall threshold of the imperial study, staring at Lu Zhiyan under the steps, the hands hanging on his sides tightened, he slowly walked down the steps, walked to Lu Zhiyan, and reached out to hug him.
Lu Zhiyan was stunned.
Song Shixian, Mo Yan, and Lei Gonggong were also stunned.
Yun Su hugged it and let go, and asked in a deep voice, "When did you wake up?" ”
Lu Zhiyan replied, "Three days ago. ”
Yunsu asked, "What about Lu Runing?" ”
Lu Zhiyan said, "She doesn't go down the mountain, she accompanies my brother on the mountain." ”
At the mention of Lu Zilun, Yun Su's neck tilted, his eyes fixed on a certain place in the sky, let sadness overflow into his eyes, no one could see it, after a while, he lowered his head, patted Lu Zhiyan's shoulder, and asked him, "I came down the mountain to find me, I want to serve the country, right?" ”
Lu Zhiyan instantly knelt on the ground, "I know what the eldest brother's wish was during his lifetime, when I was alive, I didn't fulfill my responsibility as a younger brother, I didn't fulfill my responsibility as a descendant of the Lu family, let the eldest brother carry everything, and now, even if he dies, he will carry it for me, if I do nothing, he will be chilled in the underworld, I have seen all the scenery in the first half of my life, and I have had enough of the free days, in the second half of my life, I want to shoulder the regret of the eldest brother and complete his unfinished business for him." After a pause, he added, "Assist Mingjun." ”
Yunsu was overjoyed and raised his voice to say a "Okay!" The black python robe flicked off, turned around and went up the steps, and announced loudly, "Lu Zhiyan listens to the order, and from now on, I will appoint you as a first-class permanent servant, and rank it in the Imperial History Mansion to supervise my ugliness." ”
Lu Zhiyan arched his fists with both hands and said loudly, "The minister accepts the order!" ”
Yun Su walked down with a smile and pulled him up, "There are still many mansions in Yunjing City, you go to Shen Jiaoyang, the current land register is managed by him, pick the one you like and set it as the permanent servant's mansion." ”
Lu Zhiyan said, "Okay." ”
Yunsu patted him on the shoulder and let him go down, and before leaving, he confessed, "Don't leave at noon, stay in the palace and eat with me." ”
Lu Zhiyan said hello again, and Yunsu let him go.
Lu Zhiyan went to find Shen Jiaoyang, and the palace people led the way.
Yun Su stood there, watching Lu Zhiyan leave, some of the feelings that had been suppressed in his heart finally slowly found an outlet, and he said, "Mo Yan, I have found Lu Zilun again." ”
Mo Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the meaning of Yunsu's words.
What Yunsu found was not Lu Zilun, but his faith and spirit.
In the early years of the Zhu Dynasty, the people were not able to make a living in the later years.
In the later Yun Dynasty, the gate lord army was rampant.
Lu Zilun cooperated with Yunchun to build the country, just to find a Ming monarch for the country, but this Ming Jun was still blind after all, so Lu Zilun wanted to help Yunsu seize power.
Lu Zilun is always the emperor, and at the same time, he is also the life of the world.
Yunsu actually understands, and for this understanding, he did not hesitate to bloody the country's gate lord army, this world, what he wants is peace, not independence.
Yunsu was very happy today, Qin Duxue could see it, he left the imperial study early and came to Fengyi Palace to find Qin Duxue.
Qin Duxue smiled when she saw that his brows that had not been loosened since Yun Sisong left, and asked quite puzzledly, "Is there any happy event today?" ”
Yun Su smiled, "There is a happy event. ”
Qin Duxue raised her eyebrows, "Oh? After Baohong and Xingyu served tea, she picked up a cup and handed it to him personally, and when Yunsu took it, she asked again, "What kind of happy event?" ”
Yunsu picked up the lid of the cup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "Lu Zhiyan woke up and just entered the palace to find me." ”
Qin Duxue sighed and said, "Lu Zhiyan woke up?" ”
Yun Su said, "Hmm. ”
Qin Duxue said, "This is really a great event, did the emperor keep him?" ”
Yun Su said, "Stay, eat together at noon, I came to call you." As he spoke, he raised his voice and shouted, "Mo Yan." ”
Mo Yan immediately walked in, "Your Majesty." ”
Yun Su said, "You go and inform Qin Mo, as well as Song Shixian, Han Liao, and Du Wansi, and let them stay in the palace for dinner at noon." ”
Mo Yan responded yes and went down to inform.
