Chapter 159
Shu Mei thought that Luo Xiu would not show up today, but he didn't expect him to come over in the afternoon, although he looked unhappy, but it was much better than yesterday.
Luo Xiu didn't mention Shu Mei and didn't ask, the two had a tacit understanding on this.
It's not dinner yet, but Shu Mei guesses that Luo Xiu definitely hasn't eaten, and wants to go to the kitchen to get him something to eat.
Luo Xiu saw that there were still some green shadows under Shu Mei's eyes, she definitely didn't rest well last night, and seeing that she seemed to be sleeping just now, he said that he had eaten.
Shu Mei naturally didn't believe it, but in the end, Lixia went to the kitchen to make something and bring it up.
The relationship between the two has reached this point, and the maid is not good to stay in the house, so she has a tacit understanding to go out together and guard outside.
Luo Xiu was happy when he saw this: "I found that the people around you are quite knowledgeable. ”
Shu Mei also smiled: "It's your charm that makes them all turn against each other." ”
"You're deliberately making me happy." Luo Xiu looked at Shu Mei while eating, and this time his eyes were also dyed with a smile.
Shu Mei smiled and shook his head. She didn't mean to say this to coax Luo Xiu, maybe she thought he was good everywhere, so when she saw others being good to him, she felt that it should be so.
Luo Xiu seemed to be in a better mood after eating, and took the initiative to mention yesterday's incident.
The letter was written by Luo Jun, and he had actually sent someone to deliver the letter to the capital before, but Luo Xiu was already in Guangxi at that time and did not receive it at all.
But someone always received the letter, don't think about it, it must be Xiao Rong who didn't tell him.
Although Luo Xiu left home at a young age and rarely went back, she would go to see Luo Tang every time she went back, even if she didn't know who he was.
It can only be said that the identity of his mother is a symbol of the maternal love that Luo Xiu couldn't ask for when he was a child, and he can't let it go.
To say that Luo Qiansheng is actually quite strange, he doesn't seem to have any intention of telling Luo Xiu about Luo Tang's serious illness, or Luo Jun was afraid that Luo Xiu would come back and see that Luo Tang was dead and couldn't accept it, so he sent someone to send a letter over.
So later, when Luo Xiu saw Luo Jun's letter, he figured out the reason, so he went to find Xiao Rong. Xiao Rong did not hide it, admitted that the letter was withheld by himself, and emphasized that the recent situation is delicate.
Although Xiao Rong said it tactfully, the meaning was very clear, he didn't want Luo Xiu to go back at this time.
In fact, Luo Xiu still had some illusions before he went to find Xiao Rong, hoping that the matter of stopping the news was instructed by Chen Wenyuan, and Xiao Rong did not know.
But Xiao Rong clearly said that this was what he meant, which made Luo Xiu angry, and couldn't help but make a move on him. Originally, Luo Xiu still thought that sooner or later he could take Xiao Rong back, at least let Luo Tang take a look at him, and it was not in vain that she had been thinking about it for so long, who knew that Xiao Rong was so ruthless.
If he hadn't been stopped by Chen Wenyuan later, it is estimated that Xiao Rong would have been beaten badly by Luo Xiu yesterday, because he didn't fight back at all, and it seemed that he had made up his mind to let Luo Xiu take this breath.
The rest of the matter was very simple, Luo Xiu went down in a fit of anger and got drunk.
When Luo Xiu spoke, Shu Mei listened intently, without interjecting or commenting, but when he heard Luo Xiu talk about Xiao Rong, he couldn't hide the disappointment and anger in his tone, and quietly held his hand.
If Shu Mei hadn't figured out what the relationship between Luo Xiu and Xiao Rong had before, now she felt that she could guess eight or nine.
After Luo Xiu finished speaking, he looked at Shu Mei, held her hand, and asked, "You don't have anything to ask me?" ”
This is a way for him to be honest, Shu Mei told him all his secrets, and he was not unmoved. But let him say things like she did, he still couldn't do it.
If he could, he hoped that Shu Mei would never be exposed to such messy things for the rest of his life.
But it wasn't possible, as long as she was with him, sooner or later she would know.
So taking this opportunity, Luo Xiu also wanted to confess.
However, Shu Mei didn't seem to intend to give him this opportunity, but said: "If you want to say it, I'll listen, don't force it." ”
She can think about it now, especially after Luo Xiu confessed, she felt that what she liked was him, no matter what he was carrying, she would not leave, just bear it with him, and she knew what the difference was.
Shu Mei's words made Luo Xiu suddenly not know how to speak, he had made preparations many times, but he didn't expect her to care at all. But the more Shu Mei trusted him so much, the more he felt that he was hiding and was sorry for her honesty.
Next, without Shu Mei asking, Luo Xiu told her about his relationship with Xiao Rong.
Although Shu Mei guessed it, he still felt a little stunned when he heard Luo Xiu say it himself. Luo Xiu didn't mention Emperor Huaixuan for half a word, but the culprit who caused Luo Tang's situation was obviously him.
In fact, the two brothers can't tell who is more unlucky and pitiful, Luo Xiu is indeed right to say that Xiao Rong is cold-blooded and ruthless, but how many of the children raised by the royal family are really affectionate? is really honest and kind, I'm afraid that I will have been eaten to the point that there are no bones left.
Shu Mei's heart is naturally towards Luo Xiu, there is only one biological mother, how can he be regarded as an irrelevant person in the sense of affection. But she also knows how difficult it is for Xiao Rong to get to this point, if he is not careful, he will lose everything, and he can't afford to lose.
Looking at Shu Mei's appearance, Luo Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "Do you also think that he did the right thing?" I'm too emotional. ”
Sometimes, Luo Xiu feels that Shu Mei is actually the same as Xiao Rong in some places, and he always knows what to do to be a better person for himself.
"If you're not emotional, I don't think I'll like you either."
Shu Mei's words are right, if Luo Xiu follows reason in everything like Xiao Rong, then the two of them will definitely not be able to go together, and they will not be able to persist until now.
Obviously, these words succeeded in appeasing Luo Xiu.
"I don't want to discuss with you who is right and who is wrong, anyway, it's okay if he doesn't go back, but I must go back."
That's the real purpose of his visit.
Shu Mei didn't want to stop Luo Xiu at all, even though she knew very well that Xiao Rong was right. In fact, not only can he not afford to lose, but Shu Mei also doesn't want to take risks, in case there are side troubles and Xiao Rong is defeated in one fell swoop, then Luo Xiu may not be able to die well, maybe die earlier than in his previous life.
Even if she knew that the two were half-brothers, Shu Mei's trust in Xiao Rong was not high, she always felt that if Luo Xiu didn't have the ability to mix up with his current status, even if he was a brother, I am afraid that Xiao Rong would not pay attention to him. And thinking of the cause of Luo Xiu's death in his previous life, the more Shu Mei pondered, the more he felt that it had something to do with Xiao Rong.
But she didn't want to say these things to Luo Xiu.
He was right, in fact, she and Xiao Rong were the same kind of people. For what you want, you can sacrifice others. However, Xiao Rong wants the throne, and what Shu Mei wants is Luo Xiu.
However, Shu Mei is actually very easy to shake, that is, when facing Luo Xiu, her bottom line and reason will collapse, and she will lose in a mess.
So Shu Mei looked at Luo Xiu and said, "Okay, can I go with you?" ”
Although it was a question, Shu Mei's tone was firm, even if Luo Xiu didn't agree, she had to go.
Following last night's bold move, Shu Mei found that he could have gone a little crazier. No one knows what will happen tomorrow, even if it's the last day, as long as she can be with him.
Luo Xiu didn't expect Shu Mei to say this, and he stayed for a long time this time.
Shu Mei waited patiently for him to come back to his senses, and there was no hint of retreat in his heart.
"You can't go." Luo Xiu, who reacted, refused and comforted his eyebrows.
Zhuzhou is thousands of miles away from the capital, and he doesn't know if there will be an ambush on the way, and there are all kinds of hidden dangers, he doesn't want her to risk with him.
Shu Mei smiled, didn't reply, but her resolute eyes told Luo Xiu that she must go.
If you don't take me, I'll go myself.
That's what Shu Mei really thinks.
If it was placed at this time in her previous life, Shu Mei would definitely not dare, she hadn't followed Shi Tai to the north and south at that time, her world was the size of Shu Mansion, and she didn't know what the world outside the wall courtyard was like.
But now she is not her former self, even if Luo Xiu doesn't take her away, she has a way to follow. And she also bet that Luo Xiu couldn't refuse herself, he was reluctant to lock himself up.
Luo Xiu saw the provocation in her eyes, because he knew that she had traveled with Master Ming Cang for a few years in her previous life, so he knew better that he couldn't lock her up.
In the end, Luo Xiu naturally compromised, but he asked Shu Mei to promise two things, one is that she must deal with the affairs of the Shu family so that no one can notice her absence, and the other is that the two of them will pretend to be husband and wife along the way.
If you want to say the first thing, it is Shu Mei who must solve it, this matter has really been discovered, and it is estimated that she will really be forced to become a monk this time. But the second one is obviously Luo Xiu deliberately taking advantage.
However, the relationship between the two has reached this point, although Shu Mei still feels embarrassed when she thinks about it, but it is boring to be hypocritical, for her, she has long recognized Luo Xiu, and what the name is is not so important.
In fact, Shu Mei is also a little selfish in it, she wants to go to the place where Luo Xiu was born and raised, and she also wants to meet his family. She always felt that Luo Xiu had suffered a loss by marrying her, he had a great future and good looks, so she couldn't find anyone she wanted.
Luo Xiu didn't think so much about this, and after Shu Mei agreed, he suddenly felt that she seemed to be more happy than worried about her, and she was willing to go back with her.
This is not an ordinary way to go back, I always feel as if I have married her into the door and is going to take her home.
Originally, Shu Mei was going to let Lixia look like her, and then lied that she was sick and hid in the room and didn't go out. With Lu Yan and Shu Han on the side, it shouldn't be exposed.
But Luo Xiu feels that it is not perfect enough, and if he lacks a personal and reusable maid, he will always be suspected.
Just when the two were discussing who would pretend to be Shu Mei, Luo Xiu received a flying pigeon message that Xiao Hu was going to Beijing.
This time, there is no need to bother to find someone else, just him.
Luo Xiu smiled, because Xiao Hu was his personal disciple, and he was also familiar with Shu Mei, so it was not easy to be debunked by pretending to be her.
Shu Mei also smiled, but it was not the same thing as Luo Xiu.
Xiao Hu Dengtang entered the room, Shu Ying didn't know if she would find out?
She was genuinely curious......
At this time, Xiaohu was still hurrying away, and suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, and there was an ominous premonition.
Obviously, his hunch was correct, and as soon as his feet landed, he was summoned by Luo Xiu and told him the plan.
Xiao Hu was completely dumbfounded, looking at Luo Xiu's expression of not accepting rebuttal, and then looking at Shu Mei's eyes full of expectations and waiting for the show, he smelled the smell of conspiracy.
However, Xiaohu's opinion will definitely be fine, this matter is to inform him, agree to agree, and disagree with it.
These days, it's really hard to be a subordinate.
Xiaohu has grown a little longer for a while, and now he is a little taller than Shumei, but it doesn't affect it too much. Not to mention that he pretended to be Shumei, but he could really confuse the real with the fake.
Shu Mei deliberately called the two maids in to see, whether the green goose felt that something was wrong but didn't find any flaws, or Lixia, who had followed Shu Mei for the longest time, recognized that this person was not Shu Mei.
Later, Shu Han was also called, but he recognized at a glance that this person was not Shu Mei, because the other party had a feeling that he hated very much, and that kind of breath was probably called the disgusting winner's breath.
After all, Shu Han lost completely at that time, and now there is no chance of flopping at all. can only wait for him to become a great minister in the future, and he will be ashamed again.
In this way, Xiaohu passed the test smoothly.
However, for Shu Mei's shocking idea this time, the two maids disapproved very much, but like Xiaohu, their opposition was completely invalid.
Several people were very quick with their hands and feet, and they quickly packed up their things for Shu Mei, and then Xiaohu also started to play the job.
Luo Xiu went back to the next door with Shu Mei, the two of them definitely can't go out like this, it's too eye-catching. So they also dressed up, Luo Xiu became a middle-aged man with a beard, and Shu Mei became a middle-aged woman with gray hair, but she still had a bit of a look.
Luo Tang's illness must not be able to wait, so the two of them hurried on the road after cleaning up. Driven by Luo Xiu, Shu Mei is inside, the customs clearance documents and identity seals are very easy to get, as a brocade guard, Luo Xiu has more than a dozen identities.
The two of them swaggered out of the capital without being interrogated or suspected, but this matter must not be hidden from Xiao Rong.
He was now giving medicine to the place where he was injured by Luo Xiu yesterday, but fortunately he was still a little sensible and didn't hit his face, otherwise he wouldn't be able to enter the palace later.
Xiao Rong knew that Luo Xiu was out of Beijing but did not send anyone to stop him, he knew very well that Luo Xiu would not be stopped. Although the person who was traveling with Luo Xiu came back and said that he was very faced, Xiao Rong guessed who it was.
Luo Xiu was so proud, he would have no one else but Shu Mei.
It's just that Xiao Rong can't figure it out, he has seen Shu Mei twice, and she doesn't look like a person who would be so impulsive and reckless, how could she mess around with Luo Xiu?
Forget it, it's better to have someone to fool around with him than to be reckless alone. He said that he couldn't feel it in his heart, probably because he was envious.
As soon as he thought about it, Xiao Rong's movements in his hand stopped, and suddenly a hand reached out next to him and took the medicine.
In addition to the eunuch palace maid, Wu Ce can enter and exit Xiao Rong's palace casually, and he can only take things from him without saying hello so naturally.
Wu Ce couldn't help but glance at him: "If he beats you, you'll be next to you, stupid or not." ”
Xiao Rong didn't say anything, but the corners of his mouth were obviously upturned.
