0656, Luofu Incident
When Luo Yi's footsteps stepped out of the City of Light, the last rays of the sunset had gradually dimmed.
Walking alone on the street home, the cool breeze of the evening breeze blew across his face, and his consciousness gradually cleared up.
Everything encountered today is almost like a dream, it is hard to believe.
Luo Yi thought so in his heart.
He looked down at the bracer buckled on his wrist, and with one hand gently stroked it, feeling the texture of the bracer, he was convinced that this was not a dream, it was really a great good thing that had befallen him.
Luo Yi felt as if his head was starting to get dizzy again, he shook his head, let out a long breath, and suddenly couldn't wait to rush home and share the good news with his family.
In the cool night breeze, he walked briskly and gradually disappeared into the night
......
The bright moon, as white as a jade disk, hung high in the night, and a few sparse stars were scattered around it.
The bright moonlight shrouded the entire Seukyo like a light veil.
A street west of the city.
In the hazy moonlight, the ground shone with a faint blue-gold sheen.
The mysterious blue-gold luster comes from the stone slab on the ground, the material of the slate is a very precious fire robbery gold stone, in other places this kind of fire robbery gold stone can only be afforded by the rich and noble, and in this snow king, it is used to pave the stone road, and the prosperity of snow king has reached such a point!
The hidden fluctuations of vitality flowed in the stone slabs of the Fire Tribulation, adding a touch of mystery.
Luo Yi's figure rushed from the eastern section of the street paved with gold and stone to a house at the end of the street.
There are two palace lamps hanging at the gate of the house, and the misty light illuminates the plaque behind the palace lamp, and the plaque is written with two strong and powerful characters of "Luofu".
"It's almost home, hehe, wait a while, my father and mother will hear the good news, and I don't know how happy they will be. ”
Luo Yi looked at the two lanterns hanging at the gate, and his heart was even more excited, the lanterns that used to feel a little dim seemed to be much brighter today.
He walked briskly towards the door.
Far away, he suddenly saw an old figure, pacing back and forth anxiously outside the gate, looking around from time to time, as if waiting for someone.
The man had the light on his back, his figure was a little clumsy, he was dressed in gray coarse cloth clothes, his gray hair reflected the silver light in the light, his face in the shadows was a little old, his forehead was carved with a few furrow-like wrinkles, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and some cloudy eyes were eager and anxious.
Luo Yi recognized it at a glance, that figure was the old housekeeper of their family-
Fauber.
"Well, is it Fubo, why is he in a hurry at the door, is there something going on at home?" Luo Yi saw this scene, and his heart tightened suddenly.
He quickened his pace and shouted softly in the direction of Fauber, "Fauber!"
When Fu Bo heard the sound, he suddenly cast his eyes in the direction of Luo Yi, and when he saw that it was Luo Yi, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed to Luo Yi's side, and took Luo Yi's arm and walked towards Luo Mansion without saying anything.
His old face was full of anxiety, and he said as he walked: "Young master, you are back, there is something big in the family, go back with me quickly." ”
Luo Yi was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Fu Bo, what's going on, what's going on at home?"
Fu Bo sighed and said: "Hey, an hour ago, Lord Gu took Mrs. Gu and Miss Gu to our house to withdraw from the marriage!
Luo Yiying's eyebrows furrowed slightly, a little inexplicable.
Divorce?
Why do you want to get married?
What is the Gu family making trouble about?
All of a sudden, the scene of half a month ago appeared in his mind.
At that time, Luo Yi had just received the appointment of being promoted to the captain of the seventh squad of the Flame Battalion, and he had not yet officially taken up his post.
In the eyes of the magnates in Beijing, the commander of the forbidden army does not seem to have much power, but he is directly under the jurisdiction of the crown prince, and he is known as the direct army of His Royal Highness the prince. And everyone knows that the Snow Emperor has not asked about government affairs for many years, and his abdication is imminent, once His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, then the status of this flame battalion is not just a forbidden army. Luo Yi can be appreciated by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at a young age, and his own talent is also very good, and with time, his future is simply limitless.
So all of a sudden, Luo Yi, who was single and had a bright future, became a sweet spot in the eyes of many powerful people in Beijing, and there was an endless stream of people who came to Luofu to propose marriage, almost stepping on the threshold.
Luo Yi's father, Luo Zheng, was happy and sad in the face of many people who came to propose, happy that his son was promoted, they were happy for their son from the bottom of their hearts;
So at the beginning, Luo's father could only send away many people who proposed marriage on the grounds that Luo Yi was busy with official business during the promotion period and planned to discuss marriage after a while.
What no one expected was that Gu Yangdao, who was the deputy minister of the Imperial Public Security Department, Luo Yi's father's top boss, actually brought his daughter to Luo Mansion to propose marriage, brought a large number of valuable gifts, and his attitude was also very eager.
And at that time, Luo Yi had also heard his companions in the Flame Camp mention this Miss Gu.
It is rumored that Miss Gu is very good, and she is famous for her talent and appearance in Xuejing, and countless young talents and rich children yearn for her. Not only that, but her martial arts cultivation is also very talented, with the cultivation of twenty-eyed spiritual springs, which is not much different from Luo Yi.
When he saw it that day, this Miss Gu's appearance really made Luo Yi's eyes shine, but he didn't fall in love with Miss Gu at first sight, but he didn't hate her either, and he had a good impression.
He thought that the family had only been in Xuejing for a year, and they had not been able to gain a firm foothold, and the Gu family had a certain status in Xuejing, and if they married him, the family would be able to gain a better foothold in Xuejing, and if he blew the face of the deputy minister of the Imperial Security Department, it would be very unfavorable to his father and the family.
After thinking about it, Luo Yi agreed to the marriage.
The two families were later officially engaged, and the news spread.
Who knows, it's only been half a month since the marriage contract was made, why did the Gu family want to withdraw from the marriage?
Luo Yi was full of questions.
Thinking in his heart, Luo Yi had already been pulled by Fuber, passing through the courtyard, the flower hall and the winding corridor, and after a while, he was already outside the hall.
Standing at the door of the hall, before Luo Yi and the others entered the door, they heard a sharp woman's voice from a distance, coming from inside the hall-
"No, you have to get out of the marriage! Luo Tiezheng, it's useless for you to say anything, it's really impossible for our family to marry Luo Yi, I originally thought that he was selected into the Flame Camp and became the captain of the forbidden army, and he would be willing to marry her to your son if he could do something in the future, but now he has been removed from the Flame Camp of His Royal Highness the Prince, and there is no hope in this life, so don't daydream about your Luo family. This marriage is still done early, don't delay my family's real life, today we came to withdraw from the marriage in person, but also to give your Luo family enough face, you don't have to rely on it anymore, our two families are still good to get together and disperse. ”
The voice was shrill and harsh, full of harshness and contempt.
Luo Yi was stunned for a moment, and his footsteps slowed down.
Removed from the Flame Battalion?
When was I removed from Camp Blaze?
Could it be......
Luo Yi suddenly understood something.
I went to Guangming City to report this time, and not many people knew about it, and some people just saw that they had left the Flame Camp, so they thought they had been removed?
It's so fast.
Luo Yi understood.
It turned out that it was because of this to get out of the marriage, which is really ridiculous.
His brow furrowed slightly, and he snorted coldly.
The woman's voice was snarky and aggressive, and she even called her father's name and spoke to her father in such a tone?
Luo Yi gritted his teeth and walked into the hall gently.
At this time, the atmosphere in the hall was stagnant, and several people inside were sitting or standing silently, and no one noticed Luo Yi coming in for a while.
On the main seat, a burly middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a purple python robe, sat expressionlessly.
This person's eyebrows are wide, his eyes reveal a trace of arrogance and coldness in his eyes, he seems to be indifferent to everything around him, his eyes stay on a string of red sandalwood beads in his hand, the longan-sized incense beads are full and round, exuding a quiet and distant faint fragrance.
This middle-aged man, Luo Yi, knew that it was Gu Yangdao, the deputy minister of the Imperial Ministry of Public Security.
And next to Gu Yangdao, there sat a noble lady wearing the most popular Lingyun pattern embroidered brocade in this year's Xuejing, her skin was fair and smooth, her facial features were good, well-maintained, her willow-like curved eyebrows were high, a pair of Danfeng eyes showed a hint of unkindness, and two thin red lips were slightly pursed.
He also knew this noble lady, it was Gu Yangdao's wife, when she was married, she was kind and kind, extremely kind, and praised Luo Yi for his young and promising.
In addition, a young girl of twenty-eight years old stood quietly beside Mrs. Gu with her head bowed.
The girl wears a goose yellow palace gauze skirt, her body is slender, her skin is better than snow, her black hair is pulled into a bun with the clouds, a delicate royal blue dotted emerald pearl hairpin is inserted in the hair, a strand of broken hair hangs down in her ears, her eyebrows are like distant mountains, her eyes are like autumn water, she looks forward to life, her lips are bright, and her breath is like the blue of the empty valley.
She stands gracefully, dignified and smart, with a beautiful complexion, but her face is flat, as if the people and things around her have nothing to do with her.
This girl is Gu Zhenzhen, who made a marriage contract half a month ago.
Luo Yi's father, Luo Tiezheng, stood beside Gu Yangdao with his hands down.
Luo Tiezheng was born in the army, although he is over forty years old, his figure is still burly, just because he has been through the wind and sand of the border pass for a long time, his appearance is beginning to appear old, there are already fine wrinkles on his forehead, and his sword-like thick eyebrows are slightly wrinkled.
Father Luo had a little imperceptible anger in his eyes at this time, but he endured it, hunched his waist slightly, and stood beside Gu Yangdao and smiled reluctantly.
Luo Yi's mother sat alone on a chair on one side of the hall.
She is wearing a dark blue embroidered plain skirt, a white jade hairpin in her hair, slender figure, kind face, no trace of fat powder on her face, plain face to the sky, dignified and elegant temperament, between her eyebrows can vaguely see the demeanor of her youth, her low-hanging eyes have a strong worry and a few wisps of helplessness, her eyes are a little red, and there is a faint mist in her eyes.
I heard Mrs. Nagu speak bitterly again, and said: "Mrs. Luo, you feel sorry for Luo Yi, and we also feel sorry for my baby daughter, I am such a precious girl, I am afraid of melting in my mouth, and I am afraid of falling in my hand, I was expecting Luo Yi to take good care of her in the future, who knows that he was driven away a few days after he was promoted to the commander of the forbidden army, and our family really followed him to live a good life." ”
When she said this, Mrs. Gu squinted at Luo Yi's mother, and every word spit out by her thin red lips was like a sharp knife piercing Mrs. Luo's heart.
The third is a little late, so forgive me
