Chapter 123: Ambiguity
Mrs. Tang waited until Tang Lu'er returned safely. only then did Mo Lao give the needle, and he fell asleep after a while.
Tang Luer went to another room to take a hot bath and changed the medicine, and it was almost dawn after this pass. After she put on her clothes, she asked the mother-in-law who came with the boat, "Where is the prince now?" ”
"Just looked on the deck." As the woman was talking, she saw Tang Lu'er standing up as if she was going to go out, so she hurriedly said, "Ouch, girl, the prince just ordered, saying that it was windy outside, and the girl was so good to stay in the house, but don't go out and get cold." Besides, the girl hasn't slept all night, so why don't you take a break quickly, and look at this face hasn't eased yet. ”
"It's going to be dawn, and I can't sleep for a while, I'm going to see grandma, my third brother just came over, right?"
"Yes, Meng Gongzi happened to come over when the girl was taking a bath, but Meng Gongzi was inconvenient to come in for a while, so he went to the prince's side."
Tang Lu'er put on a big coat of white fox fur. When I got out of the room, I went to Mrs. Donal's first. Seeing that Mrs. Tang was still sleeping and there was no light in the house, she didn't dare to make a sound, she only glanced at it, and then came out to check the guards guarding outside to inquire where Mo Lao was, but the guard didn't know, but when Mo Lao came out before, he went to the deck, Tang Lu'er thanked him, thought about it, and walked to the deck.
She walked for a while and found that there were very few people on the boat, and her ears were so quiet that she could only hear the wind howling and the waves howling.
It was easy to meet a guard, so I stopped and inquired only to find out that most of the people on the ship had been sent to salvage the wreckage of the Fumen battleship, and the people from the sailor's side had come, and the prince was busy dealing with these things. Tang Lu'er thought for a while, then asked Meng San where he was at this time, the guard pointed to the side, said the location of the room, and left in a hurry.
Tang Lu'er walked to the front of the room and looked inside, but found that there was no one inside, and there was no one outside, so she hesitated for a while before walking in.
This is a simple study, and the ink on the inkstone is still freshly polished. There was a faint scent of ink wafting in the quiet room, which dispelled a lot of the smell of the sea that I had just smelled along the way. There was a horse lamp on the table, the warm light of the fire swayed gently in it, and there were several candles lit on the candlestick on the other side, and a few bright fires illuminated her shadow a little illusory.
Tang Lu'er glanced at it and saw that there was not even a long collapse here where he could rest, and he didn't know what Meng San was doing here. When she hesitated whether to sit here and wait for a while, or go back first, there was a sound of footsteps behind her, she thought it was Meng San, that is, she looked back, but she didn't want it to be Shangguan Yu. Both of them were stunned, and the moment they met their eyes, it seemed that everyone thought of the scene on the reef not long ago, and the room suddenly fell into an awkward silence.
"What's going on?" After a while, it was Shangguan Yu who broke the silence, he paused, and then walked to Tang Lu'er and looked at her carefully, "Your face is so bad, why don't you sleep well in the house and come here?" ”
He had changed into a dry outfit and a robe with arrow sleeves. The waist was tight and the figure was long, as if she didn't realize that he was really tall until this moment. When he approached, if she didn't look up, her eyes were only on his shoulder, no wonder she had just been on the reef, and she had almost kneeling and clinging to his shoulders before their lips met......
As soon as he thought of this, his face became hot, especially after he approached, feeling the feeling of oppression on his body, Tang Lu'er panicked inexplicably, and his feet couldn't help but retreat, but his back suddenly hit the corner of the table.
As soon as he felt pain, Shangguan Yu reached out and pulled her, but when he saw that he was about to take her into his arms, he hurriedly let go and said, "Does the injury on the shoulder still hurt?" ”
"Hmm." Tang Lu'er replied embarrassedly after standing firm, then glanced at him and lowered his eyes. For some reason, at this moment, a strange thought suddenly popped into her heart, she is not yet sixteen, and she doesn't know if she can grow taller in the future, it seems that she is really too short now.
Tang Lu'er's quietness made Shangguan Yu also silent.
The quiet dawn, the rough sea, the room with the fragrance of paper and ink, and the flickering candle flame next to it, messed up the shadows of the two, and the atmosphere became a little ambiguous in the sound of their almost cautious breathing.
"Lu'er." He spoke suddenly. The voice was low, and there was an indescribable tenderness in the tone.
"What?" Tang Lu'er raised her face, her face was hot, for some reason, at this moment, she just couldn't face him as naturally as before.
"I'm a little busy right now, you ......" he looked at her hesitantly, and for a moment he couldn't guess what was going on with her suddenly coming here to find herself.
"Uh, oh, I'm that, actually, I'm here to find the third brother, and when I just came over, a guard brother told me that the third brother is here." Tang Lu'er sighed quietly, and continued, "I still want to ask Mo Lao about grandma's situation." ”
"Meng San is on the deck at the bow of the ship, and Mo Lao is also over there, but the sea breeze is very strong over there, and there are many people around there, you have injuries on your body, so you should not go over. Uncle Shi's poison has been suppressed by Mo Laoshi's needle, it will be fine for the time being, you go back and sleep for a while, the sky is about to dawn, don't drag your body. "I've just finished speaking. Outside, an entourage came in and said that Chen Duwei was coming, Shangguan Yu responded, and then looked at Tang Lu'er and said, "I'll let someone send you back to the room." ”
"No, you can get busy, I'll just go back by myself." Tang Lu'er shook the big on her body, then raised her face and smiled, and after she finished speaking, she walked out sideways. Just when passing by Shangguan Yu, Shangguan Yu hesitated, and suddenly grabbed her arm: "Lu'er." ”
"Huh?" Tang Lu'er turned her head in surprise, but her heart jumped suddenly.
He stared blankly at her slightly pale face, under her long eyelashes. The candle flame next to her was reflected in her eyes, making those dark eyes look particularly bright.
Before the southward trip, although she and he had been eating and drinking together, he had always treated her politely, and this girl didn't care much about it, so he was very calm in his heart; On Xingqi Island, even if she was asked to spend the night in her room, after all, with her grandmother's permission, he just let out the room, so she didn't care about it; But tonight, from the time he found her, to bandaging her wounds, to crossing her breath in the water, then embracing her on the reef, and finally the two of them inadvertently touching. Although every act has a last resort, and he can't control so much when his life is dying, but in hindsight, no matter how many unavoidable reasons there were at that time, his actions were indeed inappropriate for a woman who had not left the cabinet. And now it's so late, she suddenly came to his side, just now she looked like she wanted to talk and stopped, did she mind about tonight's events, but she was embarrassed to say it?
Seeing that he only looked at her, but didn't speak for a long time, and he had the light on his back, she couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly, and only felt that his face was becoming more and more cold, Tang Lu'er asked, "Seventh brother, what's wrong with you?" ”
Shangguan Yu came back to his senses and was about to speak, but the entourage outside came to urge him again, and he thought that there were still a lot of things waiting for him to do outside. And she's really tired tonight, and she's still injured on her body, so it's not time to speak.
"Go back and have a good rest, don't think too much, I won't let you have any grievances." Shangguan Yu slowly let go of her arm and helped her straighten the big body on her body. He said softly, and then ordered someone to come and send her back.
Tang Lu'er looked at Shangguan Yu's back as he left in a daze, unable to understand what he meant by the grievances he just said.
After dawn, the ship docked, but Shangguan Yu did not come back, but Meng San followed Tang Luer and others back to Jinyuan.
"Girl, the poison on grandma's body can't be delayed any longer, you rest for two days, and we'll go on the road after your body recovers a little vitality." On the evening of the day he returned to Jinyuan, Meng San came to Tang Lu'er and said, "But let's take a boat first, and when we arrive at the mouth of the Jiujiang River about ten days later, we will change to the land route, and you will be recuperated on the boat for half a month, and the injury on your shoulder will heal." ”
Tang Lu'er didn't care about the injury on her shoulder, and when she heard Meng San say this, she hurriedly said, "Can the poison on grandma's body last until we reach Baiyue City?" I always feel that old man Mo is not very reliable."
Meng San smiled, patted her head and said, "The Great Elder of White Moon City's Golden Needle Technique is famous, there is no need to doubt this, and Grandma herself knows it in her heart, you can rest assured." ”
Tang Lu'er thought about it, and could only admit it like this, but after a while, she said again: "By the way, I heard that last night's incident involved a lot of people, and people outside were panicked, and there were many sailors' ships patrolling back and forth on the sea. ”
"But no, the people of Baiyue City actually have the Fumen battleship, and they appeared in front of King Anyuan with such a big thorn, and then stabbed again, tsk, I don't know how many people will lose their heads this time." Meng San stretched his waist as he spoke, and then said with a smile, "This is not an opportunity for the little junior brother, the more chaos and the more people involved, the wider the scope of his purge." But as soon as this happens, we really have to leave quickly, and we won't have to sleep a lot at night. ”
"Long nights and dreams?" Tang Luer was puzzled.
"Sister, you forgot your identity in White Moon City." Meng San smiled, "Now that you and King Anyuan are so close, and now that this has happened, in case someone else finds out your identity and uses you to attack King Anyuan." Not to mention anything else, just one sentence, just say that King An Yuan was already involved in the matter of the Fumen battleship, and then he would be in big trouble. ”
Tang Lu'er was stunned for a long time before asking, "Then will White Moon City fight with this side?" ”
"It's so far, how to fight, and besides, Qizhou has just ended a war, it's easy to calm down, and it's impossible to easily start a big mess." Meng San laughed, "Don't worry blindly, the few people caught last night are all small fish, Baiyue City can completely deny it, and the little junior brother will at most use the matter of the battleship to meddle in the affairs of the sailor." But that's it, there are so many sailors patrolling the route now, so we can feel more at ease by water, and he doesn't have to follow all the way. ”
While the two were talking, a maid came over to invite them to the flower hall of Concubine Anyuan, and said that Mrs. Tang had already passed, just waiting for the two of them.
Meng San smiled and said to Tang Lu'er: "Look, even Concubine An Yuan has to express her position, let's go, this dinner should mean to see us off." ”
