Chapter 133: Gifts
"This ...... What's going on? Ani hugged the quilt tightly with a look of surprise on her face, "she ...... When did she come? ”
"It's okay, it's okay," Xu Zun explained, "She's here to see me!" ”
"See a doctor?" While Ani was dumbfounded, she had already recognized Ku Niang, and said in surprise, "Isn't this the coachman's wife?" What is she doing here at such a late hour? ”
"I told you," Xu respectfully replied, "she came to see me!" ”
"See a doctor?" Ani was even more confused, "What's wrong with her?" Gotta watch it at night? Still in your bed? ”
"There's no way," Xu Zun was helpless, "It was entrusted to me by Liu Dong, so let's help others!" Who made us all family? ”
"This ...... I ...... "Ani looked at the bitter girl who looked like a robot, and then looked at Xu Zun, feeling that her values had been shattered.
"Ani," Xu Zun said to Ani a little sobered up at this time, "I understand your kindness, but you don't need to do such a thing as warming the quilt!" ”
"Don't you need me, don't you...... Use her? ”
"No, you misunderstood," Xu Zun pointed to Ku Niang to explain, "She is going to stay in my house all night, so you go and rest first!" ”
"......" Ani almost collapsed, got dressed and left the room in a panic, and glanced at Xu Zun with a monster-like look before leaving.
"Hehe......"
After the room was quiet, Xu Zun looked at the motionless bitter mother, and he also smiled bitterly.
In the past few days, he asked Ku Niang to come to his room every night to see a doctor, so Ku Niang would come up on time, but he didn't expect this embarrassing scene to occur.
"Bitter girl, hehe......"
Xu Zun shook his head helplessly, and he didn't know whether it was right or wrong for Ku Niang to interrupt his beautiful thing......
……
The next morning, Xu Zun came to the Marquis Mansion of Changping, first, to visit Lu Xiaofeng's condition, and secondly, to say goodbye to Lu Mingyue and Hou Ye.
It's a pity that Lu Xiaofeng's condition has not improved, he is still delirious, and he can't provide any clues.
In addition, Lu Jinlong, the Marquis of Changping, also happened to be not in the mansion, saying that he went out of the city to meet friends.
And Lu Mingyue told Xu Zun that in fact, Lu Houye was not a friend, but went to a temple to offer incense and make a vow.
Before, because of Lu Mingyue's disappearance, Hou Ye went to the temple to pray for blessings, and now that his daughter is safe, he naturally wants to repay his wishes.
It's just that Hou Ye is a public figure, and he needs to keep a low profile when he goes to the temple, so he lied about his friends.
"Brother Xu," before leaving, Lu Mingyue was reluctant to give up on Xu Zun, "I really hope that one day I can follow you to solve more big cases!"
"When you leave Shangyuan City this time, I don't know when our brother and sister will see each other again!"
"Mountains and seas have their own return dates, and wind and rain have their own encounters," Xu Zun patted Lu Mingyue on the shoulder, "Don't worry, little sister, I have a hunch that we will meet again soon!" ”
"Well, hopefully!" Lu Mingyue nodded, then picked up a delicate wooden box from the hands of his subordinates, and said, "The eldest brother is a prisoner, and he may encounter some dangers in the future, the younger sister carefully selected and specially gave this soft armor to the eldest brother for self-defense!" ”
Soft armor?
Xu Zun opened the wooden box, but saw that inside was a shoulder-shaped soft armor, which was woven from black wire.
"This soft armor is made by craftsmen for several years," Lu Mingyue said, "It is made of a rare metal produced in Xiazhou, which is not only invulnerable, but also very light to wear!" ”
Hey!
Xu Zun was pleasantly surprised, this little sister really knows me so well, this is a proper need!
"It's too valuable, I ...... I ......" Xu Zun said politely, "I'll take it, thank you so much sister!" ”
"Hehehe," Lu Mingyue said with a smile, "I thought you were going to be polite to me!" Don't worry, I have two sets of this soft armor, you have one set and I have one, you can wear it with confidence! ”
"Good, good ......"
Xu Zun groped his whole body, and he also wanted to give something in return?
But he only has the pearl-embedded Zhu Hai on his body, but this thing is a casual gift from the Hou Ye of others, and it is obviously inappropriate to send it back. Besides, how can Miss Lu be rare?
After groping for a long time, Xu Zun only found a few daggers hidden on his body.
"Big brother doesn't want to give me a dagger in return, right?" Lu Mingyue saw Xu Zun's thoughts and said with a smile, "If you really want to return the gift, then always remember that there is a good sister in Shangyuan City!"
"When you pass by here in the future, you must remember to come and see me!"
Hearing this, a warm current surged through Xu Zun's heart.
Since coming to the Great Xuan Dynasty, this is the first time he has felt such warm family affection except for Shen Gong.
In a trance, he opened his arms and wanted to hug Lu Mingyue, and after opening his arms, he realized that this was an ancient society, and men and women were not kissed.
So, he could only put his right hand in front of his mouth, made a gesture of eating sugar gourd, and said:
"Next time, let's eat sugar gourd together!"
"Well, let's eat sugar gourds together!!" Lu Mingyue also happily compared an action of eating sugar gourds.
Looking at Lu Xiaomei's bright smile, Xu Zun was happy for only a few seconds, and a contradiction faintly arose in his heart.
I don't know if what he will do in the future will hurt this kind and enthusiastic sister......
……
In the warm afternoon, the flag hunts.
Outside the north city of Shangyuan City, Xu Zun followed the assassin Li Yan and his party, and took many bandits from Chongtianguan and the monk-robed killer Yuan Xingtai to prepare to set off.
Shen Xinglian sent a large number of soldiers to escort him to ensure the safety of the trip.
Outside the city gate, Li Yan was saying goodbye to Shangyuan Junshou.
On Xu Zun's side, he was talking to a soldier, and this soldier was Wu Zhengran Lin.
"Lord Xu," Ran Lin handed a booklet to Xu Zun and said, "This is what you ordered me to check, I have finished it, you can take a look!" ”
"Very good," Xu Zun took the booklet and stuffed it into his sleeve and said, "Thank you Ran Wuzheng for that!" ”
"My lord's words," Ran Lin immediately clenched her fists, "If it weren't for the fact that the adults saw everything clearly, turned the tide, and caught the monk robes killer who killed that day, my family Yushu may never get justice."
"Lord Xu, Ran Lin thanked my lady for my family!"
"Hurry up, hurry up," Xu Zun stretched out his hand to help, but when he was helping, he took the opportunity to stuff a note into Ran Lin's hand and whispered, "Ran Wuzheng, maybe in the future, Xu still needs you to take care of something!" ”
"Oh......" Ran Lin took the note and was slightly surprised.
"Now," Xu Zun held his hand and said, "In this Shangyuan City, I am afraid that the only one who is worthy of my Xu Mou's trust is Ran Wuzheng!" ”
Xu Zun's meaning couldn't be clearer, so naturally he wanted Ran Lin to keep it secret and not let others know.
"Oh......" Ran Lin comprehended, and immediately clenched her fists and arched her hands, "Don't worry, no matter what your lordship tells in the future, Ran Lin will have nothing to say, and her liver and brain will be ruined." ”
"In this way," Xu Zun also replied, "Xu will rest assured!" ”
In this way, under the leadership of Li Yan, Xu Zun and his party finally bid farewell to the officials of Shangyuan City, and then under the escort of the garrison, they went all the way north towards Wude City, the capital of Tangzhou......
