Chapter 2: The Persecution of the Implicated Sons (5)
The sun sets in the west mountain, and the spring swallows return to their nests.
In the main courtyard of Qinglong Villa, the family has already turned on the lamp. Under the old pine tree in the middle of the courtyard, a young man in brocade coughed a few times, and a maid handed over hot tea.
The boy waved his hand and motioned for her to place it on the stone table beside him. The maid put down the glazed green teacup and retreated.
The young man took out a brocade book from his arms, and after reading it, his eyes became much heavier.
This is a letter from the capital sent urgently. This time it was his mother, Mrs. Li, who wrote to him personally, telling him to play in Luoyang with peace of mind, and that everything was fine at home, and that his father had sent a handwritten letter to Xiao Yan, the head of the Huashan faction, and that after he replied, he would arrange for someone to send him to Huashan to worship Xiao Yan in Huashan.
The words in his mother's letter were fine and proper, but the boy felt more and more uneasy in his heart.
"Son, it's still very cold at night, why did you still run to this tuyere? The doctor said that the cold you suffered last time invaded the five internal organs, and you need to take good care of it to be completely healed......
The housekeeper Guan Laohan hurriedly walked in from outside the court with a letter in his hand, and when he saw the master standing on the tuyere, he frowned and roared inward: "Where are all the people who serve?!" ”
As soon as the words were finished, a girl came out with a wild duck feather and put it on for the young man in brocade.
"Guan Da, can you go to the post station to get my letter?" The young man turned his back to the old man Guan, gathered his big hand, and asked with a gentle face.
Guan Laohan respectfully presented the letter in his hand, and replied: "I got it, the person at this post said that it arrived a few days ago, and the slave looked at the seal, it seems that someone has moved, but I don't know if the things inside have changed or lost, the slave does not dare to specialize, and first bring it back and ask the son to show it." ”
"Well, got it, you go and rest!"
The young man's face was anxious, and he opened the letter and read it carefully.
Guan Laohan didn't dare to disturb, reached out and touched the cold teacup on the stone table, and retreated.
When he returned to the boy with a cup of hot tea, the boy's face turned even paler, and there was even a slight horror in his eyes.
"Son, drink a cup of hot milk tea and warm up!"
The young man took the teacup and didn't drink it, just held it tightly in his hand, turned his back to Guan Laohan, and was silent.
Guan Laohan found that the hand that the young man took the teacup was a little trembling, and he didn't dare to ask at the moment, just stood aside silently.
There was silence in the courtyard, the old plantain in the corner of the wall, a new leaf on the withered yellow branch, the wind danced, and the reflection on the white wall also swayed for a while.
When Guan Laohan didn't know how to comfort his master, the maid Chunya hurriedly walked out.
"Son, the girl has woken up, let's go to the back room and take a look!"
Tsubaki Ya stood in front of the boy with a smile and was blessed.
This young man is Li Cefeng, whom Chunya praised in front of Luo Xiyuan.
When Li Cefeng heard Chunya's words, he immediately turned around and let Chunya lead the way.
Guan Laohan lowered his eyes and saw that the gentle smile on his master's face had returned, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
General Li has a life-saving grace in him, although this Longqing Villa is nominally the Li family, but the actual title deed house and other properties are hung in his name, the Li family never asks him to pay the annual tribute and silver, only let him take care of the expenses himself, but every year the Li family's nephews come to Luoyang, they will go to his village to play for a few days, and he will contribute some local products. How could such a master make him unfaithful, so in seven or eight years, he had saved all the profits from the farm, and only returned them one day when the general unloaded his armor and returned to the field.
Therefore, when the young master came to Qinglong Villa, he treated General Li as if he were not satisfied.
It is said that when Li Cefeng was let into the inner bedroom by Chunya, he saw that the girl had helped Luo Xiyuan to sit up.
Li Cefeng smiled: "You've finally woken up!" ”
When Luo Xiyuan heard the reputation, he saw a young man with a long body standing not far from the bed, looking at him with a pair of affectionate phoenix eyes that seemed to be smiling.
This man's voice and appearance are very familiar......
"You are the best master that Tsubaki Ya said! Thank you very much......"
When Luo Xiyuan was about to thank Li Cefeng for saving his life, she suddenly remembered that Li Cefeng was the "disciple" who stopped her in the corner of the Lufu wall, and suddenly her cheeks turned red with annoyance, and she pointed at Li Cefeng and trembled and said, "You disciple who aids in abuse......"
Before he could finish his sentence, Luo Xi began to cough violently.
"Okay, what's going on?"
Chunya hurriedly walked in from the outside, and regardless of Li Cefeng's identity, he came in directly, poured a cup of hot ginger tea from the stove and handed it to Luo Xiyuan's mouth.
