Chapter XXXVIII
"Alright, let's go back."
When the fireworks ended, Lu Weimang was ready to take his two younger brothers down the mountain to join Father Lu.
Although Dad is unreliable, he must be looking for the three of them everywhere now.
"General Huo, let's go down now."
Lu Weimang greeted politely.
"Let's do it together."
After speaking, he took the lead and walked down the mountain with long legs.
Going down the mountain is not as good as going up the mountain, Lu Weimang grabbed his younger brother's hand one by one and walked down step by step.
Seeing that the figure in front of her was getting farther and farther, Lu Weimang deliberately walked slower, she was not a sociable person, she always felt that with some superiors, she couldn't speak, and her hands and feet were stiff, but now she could stay away, and she could be more comfortable.
The moon was bright tonight, and the way down the mountain was quite obvious after getting used to the darkness. General Huo's back had disappeared around a corner, and Lu Weimang had also returned to his normal speed. Unexpectedly, turning a corner of a mountain and rock, Huo Jing's figure suddenly appeared.
"I thought you were in a hurry to go down the mountain to find your father."
Huo Jing's cool voice.
Lu Weimang was a little embarrassed, although General Huo was young and high, his etiquette was better than she imagined, but he was a little too restrained.
"I've been standing for a long time, my legs are a little numb, and I can't walk fast, but now it's better."
Lu Weimang explained awkwardly.
"Hmm."
Huo Jing listened, didn't say a word, turned around and walked down the mountain.
Lu Weimang took his younger brother and walked down hungry not far away.
At the foot of Jingshan, there are rows of lanterns hung, just like daytime, so as soon as Huo Jing's figure appeared, a small yellow door came to him.
"General Huo, summoned by the queen."
Huo Jing glanced back at Lu Weimang, and Lu Weimang hurriedly said, "We are all familiar with the day here, so we will go directly to the carriage in the house in a while." ”
"Well, let's go."
As he spoke, he was about to leave, and at this time, the little yellow door glanced at Lu Weimang, "Dare to ask if it is Miss Lu Weimang?" ”
Lu Weimang was a little surprised, "Yes." ”
The little yellow door smiled, "This is a coincidence, the emperor and queen invited a few close ministers, your father is also there, and the queen also said that she will also summon you, just right, let's go together." ”
Lu Weimang is okay in his familiar life circle, once he comes into contact with an unfamiliar field, his first reaction is to retreat. It's still the case in modern society, and in the end she chooses to be an older housegirl, let alone in this naked class society.
Lu Weimang stubbornly delayed, "I slept just now, is it better to go back and freshen up first, change clothes and then go." ”
Xiao Huangmen took a closer look, the light was blurry just now, and he didn't see it clearly, but after a closer look, he found that his hair was indeed a little broken and exploded, but the whole was fine.
Lu Weimang came out to participate in the competition today, so he combed a tight bun, a pearl gold hairpin and a small beaded flower hairpin on the left and right sides of his head, and changed into a more solemn dress, the upper body of the brocade embroidered jacket, the bottom is a light green pleated skirt, very refreshing, very take advantage of this early summer season.
The little yellow door nodded, "The girl is still young, these little things that don't talk are in the way, the queen has always been kind and doesn't care." ”
Lu Weimang had no choice but to follow.
The two younger brothers were also a little nervous, but they were more excited, which was very different from Lu Weimang's thoughts.
"The slave will go back first, little lady Lu, let my brother stay in the side hall and wait, there is tea and snacks in the side hall, you can rest for a while." As he spoke, he turned his head and asked people to take Chengyang and Changfeng down and report by himself.
"Sister, we'll be waiting for you in the side hall."
After speaking, the two of them followed the palace maid in palace clothes, leaving Lu Weimang nervously staying in place.
Listening to Lu Weimang's breathing, Huo Jing looked down, and the thoughts in this little lady's heart were revealed on her face, which always made people see through it at a glance.
"The Holy Lord and the Queen Mother have always been kind, you don't have to be so nervous."
Lu Weimang's whole body was tense at this moment, and when he heard the voice, he immediately raised his head to look at the source of the sound, and after listening to General Huo's words, Lu Weimang wanted to smile politely, but he was a little stiff, "Ah, yes, well, I'm not nervous." ”
She tried to keep herself from being nervous, but she couldn't control herself.
Huo Jing felt a little strange, this little lady Lu had a lot of differences from others.
She was born in the countryside, but unlike most young ladies who think about being at home, she resolutely took her two younger brothers out and wanted to live a better life. Since he is so energetic, but in Nanyang County, he is willing to live a dull life without worrying about food and clothing.
Of course, he can find out what he wants to know, including Cheng Mo, and even who made the rock candy.
In Kyoto, I went to my father, but I made a career of my own. Later, he caught up with Qin Xuan, whether it was a coincidence or a lot of effort, he fell into the eyes of the emperor and the Marquis of Qin, and entered the Guozijian, but he was a lone man.
It's exactly the same as when she was in Nanyang County.
Cheng Mo took her things to fight for the position of head of the family, but she was "willing to be bland".
If she didn't know the value of the weapon she held before, then she should know it after the silence.
And face yourself. seems to be afraid that he is in a high position, and wants to keep his distance, but his words and deeds are unintentionally a little casual, as if in her heart, she is equal to herself.
Even the emperor.
Looking at her at this time, she seemed to be very scared, her face was tense, but her eyes were very flat. Not even the awe in the eyes of her two young brothers.
How did Huo Jing know that although Lu Weimang is a child's body, he is indeed an older housegirl's inner coffin, although he is still immature with his parents as if he has not grown up, and he still allows himself to live in an ivory tower, but in fact, he has experienced a lot of things.
For example, when she was a teenager, she was embarrassed in public, and her face would really be red and she would be embarrassed, but when she was thirty years old, she was still physically red, in fact, she psychologically felt that everyone would laugh at it, which was not a big deal.
In the same way, she is also virtuous now. Physically scared, psychologically, it doesn't seem like a big deal.
It may be that he has not really experienced life and death, so he has no fear. Even if she knew that the emperor could decide her life and death, it was only a "polite" and "physiological" fear and nervousness, half of her heart was nervous, and the innermost half was still as calm as a dead lake.
Following a small yellow door in, Lu Weimang lowered his head, followed Huo Jing sideways, and also followed him with a fist salute.
It seemed to be silent for a moment.
"This Lu Weimang is a student of Guozijian."
"I see."
Lu Weimang reacted, it turned out that he shouldn't have followed General Huo to salute, men and women have different etiquette. Fortunately, she has the status of a student of Guozijian.
This is also where she is not adapted, and she only applies some etiquette and does not penetrate into the bone marrow.
Lu Weimang lowered his head and pretended to be submissive, but the queen at the top breathed a sigh of relief.
The moment the two of them entered the door just now, she was still breathing, but when the two of them came closer, the queen's breath was finally relieved.
One of these two people is tall and handsome, and the other is indeed full of childishness, and there is no aura that can be seen by a discerning person between lovers.
That's good.
The emperor and the third prince said that Yuan Bai was not ordinary to this little lady Lu, although it was a joke, he still couldn't help but be a little worried.
Yuan Bai is his own nephew, or the only bloodline of the Huo family, he is now eighteen years old, if he likes an eleven-year-old little lady, then when Yuan Bai gets married, won't he have to wait for a long time?
Now seeing the innocent atmosphere between the two, the queen is satisfied, and she has an inexplicable good impression of Lu Weimang.
"Little lady Lu, raise your head and let the palace take a look."
Lu Weimang raised his head as he said, and met the queen's gaze without paying attention.
"It's beautiful." Looking at about 30 years old, bright and magnificent, graceful and luxurious.
This was Lu Weimang's only thought, her eyes were slightly wide, and she seemed to be a little surprised by the queen's beauty.
The queen smiled slightly, "This kid has clear eyes, but the rules are a little rusty." ”
The emperor added on the side, "This Lu Weimang was just taken home by General Lu Zhonglang a few years ago, and he grew up in the countryside when he was a child. ”
"No wonder."
The queen nodded, "Okay, go to your father, save yourself from being restrained in front of the emperor." ”
"Whoa."
Lu Weimang just wanted to turn his head to see where his father was, and put up with it again.
From the moment she entered the door, she only glanced at the floor under her feet and the queen, and she didn't dare to look at anyone else.
So she only used her afterglow to look to both sides, and it happened that Daddy Lu was also shaking his arm at this time, and was caught by Lu Weimang's eyes, and she hurriedly retreated to Daddy Lu.
In fact, Lu Weimang has no common sense. If it weren't for the queen to summon Lu Weimang, how could Father Lu be qualified to enter here, of course, he would sit at the bottom of the position.
As soon as Lu Weimang returned to his father, he breathed a sigh of relief, and heard the voice of the first queen, "You kid, it's been two years since you went out, and you won't say anything about coming back to see me." Could it be that if I don't let people invite you, you won't enter my palace gate in the future? ”
"The Queen..."
"What do you call me?"
"Auntie...", there was some helplessness in her voice.
"I've only been back for a few days, and I can't take a break, so why don't I deliberately go to see you?"
"That's what I said, Queen Mother, let's come back from the war, this unkempt person, where can I see you immediately, doesn't that worry you?"
A rough voice came, relieving Huo Jing.
"Wuhou doesn't need to deceive me, the emperor has not gone out to march and fight, and it has only been a few years since he settled down. If he had the heart, he would have come to see me a long time ago. ”
"In the future, you can't do that, you know?"
"Yes, aunt."
"Okay, okay, it's good for Yuan Bai to come back. This time, Yuan Bai went out and made a lot of contributions. ”
"That's it, originally those mountain bandits scattered when they attacked, and gathered when they retreated, which was very difficult, but it only took Yuan Bai two years to wipe out the mountain bandits in Jingyang Erzhou, which is really good, worthy of being the son of my eldest brother Huo."
"yes, yes..."
At the banquet, everyone echoed the speeches, listening to them, you can know that they are close, Lu Weimang was eating snacks, and looked at Father Lu with puzzled eyes, "Is the saint so approachable?" ”
Father Lu winked at Lu Weimang, "They are all old men who follow His Majesty to fight the world." ”
"Oh~"
Some dry mouth, Lu Weimang took a sip of tea.
That's good, in a corner of the feast, no one notices.
