Yu Yu returned to Westinghouse from the study. It was already two quarters of an hour later, and with a full stomach full of doubts, she lifted the curtain and entered the room, and at a glance she saw the figure sitting in the hall.

Lu Zhizheng supported his forehead with one hand, sat at the table with his side facing the door of the house, Pingtong and Pinghui were not in the house, Yiyu relaxed his hands and feet, walked to him and stood, and after seeing his tired sleeping face clearly, his face was stunned-

The blue undereyes, the tight lip line, the stubble that creeps up on the white chin...

Once upon a time, Lu Zhiyou showed this appearance in front of her, he has always been the most assertive one in the family, and he is also the one who walks the fastest and farthest, and stands at the front.

While other children, including Lu Jun, who was only a year younger than him, were playing, he was holding a boring book and reading it over and over again, and Lu went to the market to come back and bring gifts to the three children, Lu Jun always got some bows and arrows and other gadgets. The relics still contain all kinds of simple hair ropes and wooden combs, Lu Zhi, a book, a pen, a stack of hemp paper, and a few inferior ink blocks.

In his impression, he never showed a greedy look when Yu Yu ate the snacks that Lu brought her alone, and never showed a yearning look when Lu Jun ran out to play with others, and the year she came to this world, he was just a nine-year-old child, but he was sensible and distressing.

When he grew up, he didn't have the nerd of his childhood, although he liked to tease her and Lu Jun, but he never hurt them, in the past few years of studying in Chang'an City, every time he went home, or their mother and daughter went to school to find him, he never heard him complain about a grievance, vomited bitter water once, when she really set foot in Chang'an City, these two or three months encountered something, so that she can imagine what he had encountered.

Because of such a son, Lu can maintain her straightforward temperament and not have to worry about the future of her children like other parents. Because of such a big brother, Lu Jun can do what she wants freely, and she doesn't have to worry too much about her life experience, and she doesn't have to worry about her future situation. The only trouble is that in his not gentle way, he has to adapt to the prosperity and gloom of Chang'an City.

Lu Zhi, who is silently arranged step by step like this, is so strong and wise that Lu Zhi does not need the help of others, it is too easy for people to ignore his mood.

I still remember the indifferent look on his face when I first saw Lu Zhongzhi, that day after Fang Qiao came to the door, he couldn't hold back his tears, and after accidentally causing her to encounter a terrible bloody night, he could only say sorry to her over and over again dryly.

Looking at his tired sleeping face, Yi Yu originally thought all the way in the carriage, and then sorted out the words by standing stupidly in Li Tai's study, and for a while, they disappeared.

Her nose was sore, and her eyes were red, it seemed that this was the first time she had seen his sleeping face in years, and the tiredness that she had rarely seen when she was awake was mixed with a little uneasiness, and who would share his worries and stress when they couldn't see them.

Why should she be upset and dissatisfied with his behavior, even if what he is doing now is really for revenge. Is she in a position to blame him, a child who has not had a childhood since he was five years old?

***

Ah Sheng, who was squatting in the flower hall with Yinxiao, saw Yiyu walk into the West House from the window, and explained two sentences to Yinxiao, regardless of whether he understood it or not, and returned to the study alone.

When he entered the house, he saw Li Tai, who was lying on the soft couch on his side and closed his eyes, and after hesitating, he stepped forward and said softly:

"Master, my subordinates have something to say."

As soon as Li Tai's eyelids lifted, he knew what he was going to say, but he didn't stop it, raised his hand, and motioned for him to speak.

"Just now, my subordinates thought about it outside for a long time, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, Lu Gongzi and Mu Changfeng didn't have anything to do with each other, what are you looking for him to do, please help me, it's obviously important, Mu Changfeng recently released those rumors... They are all surnamed Lu, and they are about the same age... You said, will this Lu Gongzi's family have anything to do with the wife and child of the Fang family who disappeared thirteen years ago? ”

Hearing this surprising conclusion, Li Tai, who had thought about it as early as when Yu Yu was still in the house just now, opened his eyes and looked sideways at him.

Ah Sheng continued: "If it weren't for him going to Mu Changfeng inexplicably, his subordinates really wouldn't be able to see anything. But now that he is begging you for help, according to his mind, he can't imagine that it will arouse your suspicion? As if he wasn't afraid that you would think too much, his subordinates vaguely felt that something was going to happen recently. ”

After Li Tai's eyes were complicated for a while, he ordered: "Send someone to the household department and the Ministry of Rites to check Lu Zhi's household registration." ”

Ah Sheng's eyes lit up suddenly, yes, go and check Lu Zhi's information in the Ministry of Household and Rites, if it is changed, there must be ghosts, others can't see it, but the master and servant who saved the mother and daughter of the Lu family in Shu more than three years ago are clear in their hearts!

"Then the subordinate will go." Ah Sheng didn't know what he was excited about, so he confessed to Li Tai, and when he saw that he didn't object, he ran out of the house.

Lu Zhi's head was dizzy, he hadn't had a good rest for a few days, plus he didn't sleep all night last night, while waiting for the jade, he couldn't help but take a nap, and when he woke up again, it was already time for lunch.

He opened his dry eyes, and after the figure on the other side of the table became clear, he subconsciously showed a smile, and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"It's been a long time since I've seen you with a needle and thread."

Yu Yu was sitting on the other side of the round table, mending two small openings in his cloak. When he woke up, he put down the needle and thread in his hand, got up and poured him a cup of tea and pushed it over.

"Haven't you been busy lately, and I told my mother a few days ago, when I'm free, I'll make clothes with you?"

Lu Zhijian took off the trumpet cloak covered on his shoulders and put it on his lap, took the tea and drank it slowly, shaking his head, "Don't be so troublesome, it's okay to make some small things, it's too hurtful to make clothes." ”

Yu Yu let out an "oh". I heard him skip the topic and asked directly: "King Wei said that he can help find Mu Changfeng in a few days." ”

He didn't ask if Yi Yu had asked Li Tai for help, he just asked for a few days, and he seemed to be 100% sure that Li Tai would not refuse.

Yi Yu stretched out two fingers and compared, then sat down beside him, took an empty cup and poured tea, dipped it with his index finger, and wrote a sentence on the table:

"What if the emperor summoned Fang Qiao these days?"

Lu Zhi also wet his fingers, "Before there is definite news, the emperor will not, and my grandfather was instructed by him not to reveal the details of the matter to him for the time being." ”

Their family of four is the mustard between the emperor and Fang Qiao, and the emperor's attention to Fang Qiao is indeed extraordinary, and he is reluctant to use this matter to stimulate him at the moment.

Lu Zhi's behavior has always been like this, both dangerous to the edge, but also stable and abnormal, everything is handled to the right position, down to people's feelings, words and deeds, are counted in it.

The water stains on the table melted into strips, Lu Zhi put the cloak on his leg on the round stool on the side, stood up and arranged his clothes, and explained to Yu Yu:

"I don't have anything to do, so I won't eat here. Tomorrow's etiquette competition, remember not to come out, after the successful conclusion of the five academy art competition, no one in the Guozi Prison will blatantly trouble you, and the students of the academy will respect you for three points, hehe, it will be very interesting then. ”

Yu Yu was not very interested, "I just want to live in peace, ah, you wait." ”

Lu Zhi watched suspiciously, as she trotted into the bedroom, and after a while, he came out of the room and walked up to him with a few things.

The jade was handed to him in the same way, "This blue porcelain vase was made when I made the nightmare antidote. It's called Soul Suppression, although it is a defective product, but it also has a refreshing effect, you can take one pill at a time, in principle, I don't recommend you to eat more, you know, this is a snow cream, use some before going to bed, to ensure that you sleep sweetly, this is tied with a red rope, is a heat-clearing pill, I see that you are about to get out of the dark circles, stay up late and hurt your body, and you can't rest when you are over, then take a pill. ”

Lu Zhi looked at the bottles and boxes in his hands, his heart was warm, but he said: "I just didn't sleep last night, and I rest on time on weekdays, so I don't need these." ”

Yi Yu glared at him, directly pulled the empty pouch for decoration from his waist, and after putting things in, he pulled his sleeve and stuffed it in, "Take it, pay attention to rest, don't be mistaken by Sister Xiaofeng for drinking flower wine." ”

Lu Zhi snorted, stuffed the things tighter again, and reached out to pinch her face, "Listen to her nonsense, you little girl, do you know what flower wine is!" Okay, you stay in the house, you don't have to send it, see you at the back door of the school dormitory tomorrow morning. ”

Yi Yu rubbed his face, and after watching him lift the curtain and walk out, he first sighed lightly, and then muttered in a low voice:

"If I'm really a yellow-haired girl, of course I know what flower wine is."

Chang'an City House

Li Niang sat in a room in her yard, watched the two maids she had sent to buy needlework in the morning put things on the table, picked up a stream of red embroidery thread and wrapped it around her hand a few times, then let her go down, and gossiped with the personal maid in the house, Lu Bo, for a while, and after a quarter of an hour, covered her mouth and yawned.

"I'm tired, I didn't rest well last night, I'll go in and lie down for a while, you look at the door, if Xiao Wu comes back, let her go elsewhere to play first."

"Yes." Green Wave replied and retreated.

Li Niang walked into the side room alone, sat down on the long couch with the stove, looked left and right at the doors and windows, took off the red thread that was wrapped around her hand before, found the thread, slowly lengthened it, and looked carefully at the light coming in through the window, and saw that black marks appeared on this long red line!

She pressed the red thread sideways against those marks, flat or vertically on the couch, and laid out the fonts one by one, until she used the end of the line, and then put together the words she had memorized before and sorted out a sentence in her mind.

"Huh?" After repeating it silently twice, she drew her delicate eyebrows furrowed, her face looked puzzled, and she whispered to herself:

"What do you mean by me doing that, is that right?" (！ )
