Volume 1: Jun Zuo Shou Songhe [Chapter 51] Death
Ah Luyu hesitated and said, "The slave thinks... You don't seem to be the same as you used to be? ”
Xiao Yuehuai was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Really? ”
She saw the timidity in Ah Lu's eyes, silently lowered her eyes, forcibly suppressed the bitterness surging in her heart, and quieted down.
"But..."
Ah Lu reversed the tone and said, "Although the slave is a little scared when she looks at you like this, she is more... It's a pleasure. ”
Xiao Yuehuai raised her eyes to look at her, a little puzzled: "Happy?" ”
Ah Lu said solemnly: "The princess is willing to think about these things, she is protecting herself. ”
"The situation in the Jinling Dynasty is complicated, the officialdom is changing rapidly, and the Su family is in the center of the whirlpool, princess, since you have become the wife of the Su family, if you ignore political affairs like before, you will inevitably be injured. The slave maid was extremely worried, if according to the princess's previous nature, how could she lay a foundation in the Su family, and how to face the disasters that came to the Su family? ”
"Now... The slave was completely relieved. ”
The familiar words, word by word, were imprinted in my heart, making Xiao Yuehuai have mixed tastes.
In her previous life, after she married into the Lu Mansion, Ah Lu also said similar things, fearing her every day, persuading her to secretly contact a reliable family and build a barrier for herself.
It's a pity that at that time, she was already in the trap, firmly restrained by the Lu father and son, and even the close friends in the past had no contact, and her life was chaotic and she had no ability to resist.
Unconsciously, she clenched her fists and took a deep breath and said, "Ah Lu, I don't want to hide it from you—I have already moved my heart to seize power." ”
Ah Lu was stunned for a moment, a little surprised but felt reasonable, calmed down for a moment and accepted it naturally, she bent over and said respectfully: "If the princess wants to seek government, the slave and maid are also willing to be the bricks and stones of this difficult road." ”
She was straightforward about what she thought.
Xiao Yuehuai's eyes were moist, and she asked softly in a low voice, "You don't ask me why?" ”
Ah Lu: "The princess was born in the palace, and she has the love and love of His Majesty and the queen, but when she encountered the situation that the Qin family was falsely accused and the Qin little lady was imprisoned, she tossed and turned for several nights, and only by robbing the prison and releasing the suspect privately earned a chance for the Qin family. After marrying into the Su family, he was even more unsatisfactory everywhere, obviously with a daughter's body, but he had to condescend and bow his head to be a man. ”
"It can be seen that if you have no power in your hands, even a princess who is loved by thousands of people will have to settle in the back house and watch the clouds fall into the air."
"The slave has followed you since childhood, and I am used to seeing your wanton and chic appearance, and I can't see you being wronged at all. Now that the princess wants to fight for himself, the slave and maid agree with both hands and feet, how can they ask more? ”
Xiao Yuehuai's eyes were red, she got up from the couch, stumbled two steps to Ah Lu's side, took her into her arms, and whimpered: "Good Ah Lu... Heaven has treated me well, so I let you come to me. ”
She saw the image of Alu's body being rudely carried out of the tent by the soldiers in her previous life, and tears fell down like beads that had broken in thread, quickly soaking the cloth on Alu's shoulders.
"Male... Princess? ”
Ah Lu was hugged tightly by her, standing in place in a daze, listening to the sobs one after another, helpless.
After a long time, Ah Lu stretched out his hand, hugged her as well, patted her back gently with his palm, and comforted her wordlessly.
The cold breeze blows in the autumn night, the dead leaves fall to the ground, but the house is very warm...
Time flies.
The early dew and frost hit the tips of the red maple leaves, cutting through the fog and falling into the mud, and the slightly clear forest ushered in a faint ray of light. There was a rapid gasp on the eastern path, and three figures, dressed in coarse linen clothes, covered with silk scarves, hurried to the steep path on the edge of the cliff.
"Little lady Lu is going from this side!"
The man who followed at the end urged urgently, and the little lady who led the way turned around and grabbed the middle-aged Langjun behind her, and said in a low voice: "Dad! Watch your step! ”
The three of them touched the cliff, stepped on a path only a foot wide, and cautiously moved down the mountain.
After a while, there was a movement of officers and soldiers chasing after him.
Xun Chong held his breath and pulled the Lu father and daughter to silence.
"There's no one here! Go to Lu Saburo, do you want to chase down the mountain? ”
"Whoa!"
When the guards walked away, Xun Chong dared to breathe, he turned his head and whispered to the Lu family father and daughter: "It seems that Lu Pingsheng will not stop if he doesn't see your corpse." Two, we need to hurry up before we can escape and join King Xuan. ”
Little Lady Lu nodded and said, "Okay!" Please lead the way in front of the general! ”
Xun Chong didn't say a word, he held the cliff with one hand, and the protruding stones on the steep road under his feet were suspended in the air, and flew to the right side of Lu's father, and in a blink of an eye, he stood in the front.
He quickly rushed down the hill to clear the way for the father and daughter.
This steep trail leads to the mountain pass and is the nearest road. When the three of them reached the end, the path in the forest was peaceful, and they thought they were about to succeed, but the sound of footsteps sounded on the quiet stone steps.
Lu Pingsheng chased after him with officers and soldiers!
Xun Chong was shocked, he didn't expect Lu Sanlang's speed to be so fast, so he hurriedly pulled the Lu father and daughter into the jungle to hide.
I only heard a cold sentence come out of the mouth of the Lang Lang: "Your Majesty said, if the thief resists, he will be killed!" ”
Through the gap between the bushes, Xun Chong saw that Lu Sanlang raised his sleeves, and before he could react, the opposite side had already fired a bow and arrow. Cold arrows flew like rain and shot towards the unarmed Lu father and daughter. Xun Chong couldn't hide himself, stood in front of them, pulled out the quick knife at his waist and cut off the feather arrow, and shouted: "Hurry up!" I'll break it off! ”
Seeing that the situation could not be delayed, Little Lady Lu pulled her father and fled decisively.
Who knew that Lu Pingsheng had already set up an ambush at the foot of the mountain, and when they were about to see King Xuan's carriage, they dealt a fatal blow. The besieging soldiers, their long swords as fast as lightning, aimed at the back of Lu Xiaoniang, and stabbed them with unmistakable accuracy.
Seeing this, Lu's father rushed forward without hesitation and hugged his daughter from behind. The sword pierced through the chamber and hit the vital point, and Father Lu spat out a mouthful of blood, his body twitched, and he fell to the ground.
Blood stained the girl's neck red, splashed all over her face, and even the silk scarf that covered her face was stained with blood.
She turned her head in horror and cried out, "Daddy!! ”
Xun Chong was trapped in the bushes, unable to go to the rescue, watching this scene happen, he went crazy in an instant, slashed like crazy, broke through the danger and ran to the isolated little lady, and rescued her at the last moment.
The girl had lost her soul, tears and blood stains fell, and Father Lu, who was still a little warm in her arms, refused to let go.
Xun Chong killed the bloody road with the strength of one person, and said bitterly: "Little lady! Come with me! Don't let your uncle die in vain! ”
The girl tugged at her father's robe, pulled off the jade pendant from his waist, and looked at the cleanly dressed young man standing with his hands on the hillside in the distance with tears in her eyes, her eyes full of resentment and hatred.
The eyes of the two met in an instant, and they returned to their original places after colliding.
The girl left decisively, jumped down the last low slope in the mountains, and disappeared without a trace. Seeing this, Xun Chong fell to the bottom of the slope with the little lady. The officers and men hurriedly made a detour to chase after them, and ran down the slope, but they saw only a pool of blood.
Lu Pingsheng rushed over, and when he saw that he had escaped two, he couldn't help but tighten his palms, and his eyes became more and more gloomy.
