Chapter 118: Send a Relative to Me
King Wei's wedding, the prince who said that he had returned to the back cover at the beginning of those months, was actually waiting in the near city to join in the excitement, and took the opportunity to bring people back to Beijing, and a few days before the wedding, they each sent someone to send a congratulatory gift.
At the end of March, the Wei Wangfu is the most lively, the gift-giver can line up from the front door to the street, who doesn't know the holy favor of the King of Wei at the moment, and several bad things have been suppressed by the emperor when he returns to Beijing, and he simply didn't even call the early dynasty before marriage.
Ah Sheng came back a few days before the wedding, and went to the palace non-stop, without having time to catch his breath, so he took over several of the most important matters in the wedding from the other stewards.
Compared with Puzhenyuan's pre-wedding preparations, the affairs of the Wei Wangfu's wedding are more than twice as much, Ah Sheng is busy with the group, so he doesn't have much time to take care of Li Tai, and not many people in the Wangfu dare to come to Li Tai, who knows that it was this time of negligence, and a few days before the wedding, there was a bad mistake.
It is said that Li Tai is not idle for a while, there is no shortage of nobles who have come to give gifts these days, and there are Wu Wang and others involved, all kinds of banquets are vying to come, and he is coping with one or two, which is to waste a day's work, and feast until dawn for three days and nights.
On this day, he only came back from outside in the early morning, and went to Comb Liuge to rest for half an hour, and in the morning he received something sent by Yiyu, a thick stack of texts in the cowhide bag, with fake and real handwriting, every stroke was imitated with heart, thinking about when she did it, it was Li Tai's hard-hearted heart, and he couldn't help but be moved.
He also attached a small note, a small bottle of water pills, asking him to rest well, and if he was light sleeping, he would take one pill with warm water before going to bed. Li Tai has not been sleeping well these days, so after carefully reading her manuscript, and putting it away properly, he ate one pill and went back to bed to make up for sleep.
How do you want to sleep well, I was woken up by the sound of clothes rustling, squinted and saw two slick bodies are coming to the bed, Wei Wangye, who has not encountered this situation for a few years, came back to his senses, and there was a bold bow to send fragrant lips over, and the soft master failed to finish shouting, and was slapped by Li Tai.
It was also when he first woke up and had the most self-control, this time he used ten percent of his strength, but he slapped the woman alive, fell to the ground and vomited two mouthfuls of blood, and then lost his breath.
The other was dumbfounded, screamed in a lost voice, and couldn't hear him say "shut up", until the roof was about to burst, and the next moment he was sat up by Li Tai, who was angry, and kicked and broke his throat.
When Ah Sheng hurried over, he saw two white female corpses lying on the ground in the house, and Li Tai was sitting on the edge of the bed with a cold face, already sober.
Ah Sheng secretly said bad in his heart, knowing that the master had been preparing for this marriage for two years, and had previously deliberately gone to Tianhe Temple to meet Master Zhiren, seeking a method, in order to seek this auspiciousness, after that day, he began to cultivate his self-cultivation, borrowed meat and vegetarianism, not to mention murder, and even avoided the kind of place that he often went to in the torture room, and he didn't want to be contaminated with blood at all.
"Subordinates damn it," Ah Sheng didn't hesitate much, and knelt on the ground, he knew much better than Shen Jiantang, and he wouldn't kick his nose in the face because of Li Tai's occasional "approachability" in the past two years.
Tai stood up, pulled the coat that hung over the bedside, and pursed his lips and walked between the two female corpses.
Ah Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly responded, watched him go out, and then went out to call the people waiting outside to come in and dispose of the corpse, and asked people to prepare hot water for bathing, and went to the backyard with his eyebrows twisted.
After Li Tai took a bath, Ah Sheng had already found out the head and tail, and reported it to Li Taiyu in the study, this bad thing happened to be among the two monks in the palace assigned by the emperor last month, and that Liu Shangren happened at the behest of Du Chuke.
When the two monks arrived at the palace, they found several strange things in this mansion in less than a month, for example, in this huge Wei palace, there was not even a woman who warmed the bed for the prince. So with the "duty" of being conscientious, that Liu Shangren found Du Chuke, and then turned to Li Tai's courtyard in the capital full of singers and dancers, and directly brought two clean ones back and arranged to live in the small courtyard.
The Wei Wangfu is very large and has a lot of affairs, Li Taifei can pay attention to everything, and the stewards can't cover everything, so these two inconspicuous women have lived in for more than ten days, but he doesn't know it.
Although the people took it, but according to the meaning of Du Chuke and Liu Shangren, that is, to prepare for an emergency, there would have been no accident in this way, but the bad thing is that the two women thought about it themselves, knocked on the side and inquired about the matter of the Comliu Pavilion, and walked to the front several times to take a look, and found that there was not even a doorman here, and more or less the idea of jumping into the branches, ignoring the warnings of the few maids who were waiting for them not to run around, and they chose to dedicate themselves today.
"Master, Master Du is in charge of a lot, but he has no intention of thinking about it, as for that Liu Shangren, he believes that he is a close person of Empress Changsun, so he should be beaten." Ah Sheng lowered his head and said, he will help Du Chuke speak, it is really because although this person is stupid, he has a mind for Li Tai, and it is still useful to keep it for now.
"Where's the corpse?" Li Tai carried the copy book sent by the jade in the morning, and he didn't seem to be as angry as Ah Sheng imagined.
"It's cold in the torture cell."
"Send it to them."
Ah Sheng's scalp was numb, and he just wanted to persuade him, but as soon as he touched Li Tai's raised eyes, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth and changed, "My subordinates know." ”
"Clean up the courtyard." The comb pavilion could no longer live, Li Tai looked at the handwriting on the paper, and thought that in a few days, he would be able to occupy her from head to toe, and the good mood of being ruined was completely destroyed, so he came back again.
Back to Longquan Town, on the last day of March, Puzhen Garden was very lively, as soon as the sky was bright, the people all got up early, did their own things well, and went to the west warehouse to line up and listen to the instructions.
When Yu Yu was still sleeping, a big cleaning had begun in front of and behind the house, and people with brooms and basins were everywhere, even Pingtong Pinghui wrung a rag to participate in it, tables, chairs, benches, doors, windows, cabinets, and stone lamps on the side of the road had to be wiped three times, just to ask for good luck.
It was busy outside, and no one told Yi Yu to get up, she took sleep pills last night, and she didn't wake up until noon, and the garden had been cleaned up and down, and she was about to start putting up lights, if it weren't for Lu's busy remembering that it was time to eat, I was afraid that no one would be able to take care of her.
"Mother, Uncle Han, haven't they come back yet?" Yi Yu sat down at the table and looked at the fragrant rice in the bowl, because he had overslept, so he had no appetite.
"Someone sent a message in the morning, saying that they would be back in the afternoon." Lu Shi took the soup bowl handed by Liu Xiangxiang and said.
Lu Jingshan also heard about Han Li from the Lu family, the two sisters didn't hide much from each other, and they knew that it was Han Li who was a troublemaker when the Lu family came out of the Fang family, and they were very uninterested in this name, so they frowned when they heard it, "When he comes back, I will tell him to move outside quickly, and what are you talking about." ”
Lu Shi smiled and didn't make a sound, but Yi Yu saw it in his eyes, so he changed the topic, "Where's my uncle?" ”
"Let's have a table of women to eat, what kind of excitement does he have, and it's not like no one is in the house to accompany him." Lu Jingshan said unconcernedly.
Yi Yu listened, thinking that Uncle Fang Hang, who had a good impression, was now in the house with the concubine, and after a while, she didn't answer, and after the meal, she said that she was going to clean up her personal belongings and lead Pingtong Pinghui away.
In fact, there is not much to clean up, the relics are afraid of taking away too much, the house is empty and called the Lu family lonely, so I only picked some things that I am used to take away, some important manuscripts and objects, are locked in rattan boxes, and I will send someone to watch them when I go out tomorrow.
After finishing this, I was called by Lu Jingshan to try on the outfits, and I tried all the ones I wanted to wear tomorrow, and another hour passed, and when I returned to the house, I heard Chen Qu report that Han Li's father and daughter were back, and Yu Yu went to their courtyard, and he didn't see Han Shiyu, but only said a few words to Han Li, and the other party was still in the mood to tease her, and it looked like nothing had happened.
On the way back, I saw the red carpet spread out from the front yard, it was almost to the main house, under the eaves, on the trees were covered with red silk, hanging blessing lamps, Pingtong Pinghui was very happy to point to the bright color to her, the smell of festivity in this house became stronger and stronger, but the jade looked at it, but lost his mind.
Gradually her heart ached, she took a few breaths, and then asked the people passing by, knowing that the Lu family was still busy, so she sent Pingtong to the kitchen to prepare wine and food, and asked Pinghui to prepare the carriage, planning to hide from the Lu family to go to the back mountain forest to see, because the marriage is not suitable to see in vain, the Lu family told her not to go to the back mountain in the past few days, but she couldn't help it.
So, half an hour later, she stood in front of Lu Zhi's tomb, just like every time she came back, put on the wine and food, worshiped a few pillars of incense, sat down cross-legged on the grass on the side, stared at the empty monument, and remembered the last letter Lu Zhi sent her, I don't know how long it took, and his voice seemed to sound intermittently in her ears-
Twelve years and nine months, from your birth to the present, the eldest brother has watched you grow up, the eldest brother is like a father, you may feel heavy, you are the sustenance of the eldest brother, sometimes you will imagine what you look like when you get married, you will also imagine the appearance of your children and grandchildren as mothers, and your children and grandchildren are full of silver hair.
I probably can't get the happiness, so I want you to have it.
"Big brother," Yi Yu poured a glass of wine and sprinkled it in front of him, "Second brother hasn't come back yet, if you have a spirit in the sky, you can send me a kiss tomorrow." ”
On the eve of the wedding, the mother and daughter rested on a bed without accident, although they were tired for a day, they were not sleepy at all, and the Lu family explained over and over again that the widow would go to the palace tomorrow to pay tribute, and in the end, he wished that he could follow.
"Mother, I remember everything," Yi Yu hugged Lu's waist and abdomen, and said to her tightly, "After I leave, you can rest for a few days, then it is best to drink angelica soup for a while, and when you return to the door, if you see that you have lost weight, the child will not follow." ”
"Mother knows," Lu patted her on the back, "It's not early, let's go to sleep, I'll get up before dawn tomorrow." ”
Yu originally thought that she was going to lose sleep tonight, but she was in Lu's arms, and she patted her gently, just like when she was very young, she fell asleep unconsciously, this sleep was very short, and when she was woken up again, it was as if she had closed her eyes a moment ago.
"Yu'er, Yu'er wake up, it's time to get up."
Yi Yu opened his eyes slowly, listened to the footsteps walking back and forth in the house, looked out of the dark window, and moved to the big red wedding dress set up on the hanger, his heart beat fast, and he suddenly came to his senses.
