Chapter 73: Covert Protection
Liangchen smiled and said, "Miss Furong, it's not that I see the outside, but that you are different now." You became the granddaughter of Mrs. Li, so you are naturally the daughter of a wealthy family. We are just people of the mountains and wilderness, and we dare not climb high. Otherwise, we will be said that we don't know the height of the sky, and we are even called sisters and sisters with the wealthy lady! ”
Furong's face suddenly turned red, and she was about to argue, but Wu Zetian said: "Furong, Miss Liangchen is just joking, you don't have to mind." Now that you're ready, let's go! ”
Wu Zetian immediately arched his hand to Chen Cunhua and Feiyun, took Furong's hand, and turned around and walked out of the courtyard. Wu Wei and Wu Zhong hurriedly followed, and the four of them quickly walked away.
Chen Cunhua sent it to the door and waved it off until she couldn't see the backs of the four people, then she put down her arms and slowly returned to the courtyard.
Meijing saw that Chen Cunhua was in a trance and depressed, so she said, "Auntie, since you are reluctant to let Furong leave, why do you have to promise Mrs. Li to let Furong accompany her?" ”
Chen Cunhua smiled bitterly, sighed, and said, "Who wants their children to leave their hometown and run around all year round? But as you can see, we're in the middle of nowhere. The year is better, and you can still eat enough to meet the famine, it is difficult to say. Furong can meet a rich and noble family like Mrs. Li, and follow her, so she naturally has no worries about food and clothing. How reluctant I am, I can't delay her! ”
After listening to Chen Cunhua's words, the three of Feiyun knew that what she said was also the truth, so they comforted them a few words. Under the persuasion of good days and beautiful scenery, Chen Cunhua slowly calmed down.
Feiyun then nodded slightly at Liangchen, Liangchen understood, took out a piece of silver, handed it to Chen Cunhua, and said, "Auntie, we have been living in your house for the past few days, and we have been disturbed a lot. We're leaving, too, and this is a reward for you, a little meaning, not a tribute! ”
Chen Cunhua hurriedly excused herself and refused to accept anything. Chen Cunhua just now felt that it was a bit too much to accept Wu Zetian's gold, but now he naturally refused to accept the silver of Feiyun and the others.
Besides, Chen Cunhua also sees that Wu Zetian must be a rich family, and the family must have thousands of family wealth. An ingot of gold may not be anything to Wu Zetian at all. But the three of Feiyun are different, and their family backgrounds are obviously average. Chen Cunhua resolutely refused to accept it, and Liangchen had no choice but to put away the silver.
Meijing and Feiyun led the horses out of the door, and the three of them arched their hands to Chen Cunhua, jumped on their horses, and walked slowly forward, and soon left Guojia Village.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they had long since disappeared from the shadow of Wu Zetian and others. Meijing looked around and asked, "Big brother, second sister, do we really care about Wu Zetian?" Is it possible to go back to Nanyue to report to Master? ”
Feiyun hesitated for a moment and asked Liangchen, "Second sister, what do you mean?" ”
Liangchen smiled and said, "Big brother, if we go back like this, if the master asks us, will we send Wu Zetian to Luoyang?" How should we answer this? ”
When Meijing heard this, she immediately said, "Big brother, second sister is right. We should still send Wu Zetian to Luoyang, otherwise we won't be able to explain to the master when we go back! ”
Meijing actually didn't want to go back like this, she still wanted to go to Luoyang to see it. Liangchen is naturally the same, the two have never been to the Central Plains, and it is inevitable that they want to see the customs of the Central Plains.
Feiyun laughed and said, "I know you haven't had enough fun, so of course you don't want to go back." In this case, second sister, the next thing is all up to you! ”
Liangchen knew that Feiyun was unwilling to protect Wu Zetian with Wu Wei and the others, so he said that the three of them followed Wu Zetian and his party behind. It's best if nothing happens, and if they get into trouble, the three of them can help.
Liangchen also thought that Wu Wei must have taken Wu Zetian to Guojia Town at this time. They will rest for the night in Guojia Town and continue their journey west tomorrow to Yuquan Temple.
Liangchen told Feiyun that the three of them were also resting in Guojiazhen tonight. Wait for Wu Zetian in front early tomorrow morning. When they had passed, they followed from a distance.
Liangchen estimates that Wu Zetian's journey will definitely not be very smooth. Pei Shouyi and the three of them have not heard any news recently, and they must be hiding in every place in front. Xu Zhitang will not let go of Wu Zetian easily, and there will definitely be action.
Feiyun listened to Liangchen's words and agreed with her. In order not to run into Wu Zetian and the others, the three of them walked slowly. They chatted and enjoyed the scenery along the way.
Unknowingly, when it was time for Shen, the three of Feiyun entered Guojia Town. The three of them were worried about colliding with Wu Zetian and the others, so they didn't go to the big inn, but found a small inn in the middle of nowhere. Feiyun and the three of them asked for two rooms and stayed there.
Feiyun estimated that Wu Wei would definitely send a lot of people to patrol the town and monitor it. Feiyun was worried that he would meet these people when he went out, so he told Liangchen and Meijing not to go out.
Liangchen and Meijing are naturally very clear, but they are young and lively after all, and the two girls stay in the room, feeling that it is too boring, so they run to Feiyun's room to chat.
Feiyun was about to meditate and practice, when he saw the good day and the beautiful scenery come in. He knew that the two of them couldn't bear the loneliness, so he had to give up the idea of practicing and talk to them first.
Feiyun sat the two of them down and said, "I've been very nervous these days, and I haven't had the opportunity to practice my internal skills. Why don't you take advantage of this rare leisure time to practice the Mixed Yuan Mind Method and come to disturb me? ”
Liangchen smiled: "Big brother, it's still early, there is time." After dinner, we'll practice again. I haven't figured out some things clearly, so I'll come to you and analyze them together. ”
Feiyun smiled slightly and said, "You can't figure it out, and Meijing and I naturally can't figure it out." Third sister, what do you say? ”
Meijing pursed her mouth and said, "Big brother, it's actually not a big deal." She thinks that Wu Zetian must have some conspiracy to accept Furong as her niece and granddaughter. I told her that she was simply overthinking. Fleur is smart and lively, sweet-looking, and loved by everyone. Wu Zetian likes Hibiscus, which is also a normal thing! ”
Feiyun thought for a moment and said to Liangchen: "Second sister, I think what the third sister said is reasonable. Fleur is just an ordinary little girl in a mountain village, nothing special. Wu Zetian may have accepted Furong as his niece and granddaughter on a whim. She may not have any other purpose, are you too careful? ”
Liangchen shook his head, thinking that it was precisely because there was nothing special about Fleur that made Liangchen suspicious. Liangchen thinks that a person like Wu Zetian, if Furong really has no effect on her, she will not be so good to Furong.
Liangchen couldn't think of what Wu Zetian had taken a fancy to Furong, so he deliberately wanted to win over Furong. Although Fleur is very clever, she is not extremely smart. Although Hibiscus is very beautiful, it is not the best in the world.
Whether it is smart, beautiful, or temperament and background, Furong is not as good as Li Xiaoyan. But Wu Zetian didn't seem to be interested in Li Xiaoyan at all, but was a little wary of Li Xiaoyan. Wu Zetian values Furong very much for no reason, and there is really no reason.
Feiyun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Liangchen mention Xiao Yan, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it did seem to be a little abnormal. If Wu Zetian admires Xiao Yan very much, it is indeed logical. After all, Xiao Yan is better than Furong in all aspects, especially her talent and appearance, which is very eye-catching.
Feiyun couldn't think of anything, so he said, "Second sister, you don't have to think about it anymore. Maybe it's because Furong and Wu Zetian have a fate, which makes them like each other. This matter has little to do with us, Wu Zetian will not harm Furong, Furong is no threat to Wu Zetian, and it will not be of any help to Wu Zetian. By the way, I just have something I want to ask you! ”
Liangchen smiled and said that he knew what Feiyun wanted to know. Isn't it how she persuaded Wu Zetian, what did Mrs. Wang talk about with Wu Zetian.
Feiyun saw that Liangchen guessed, so he nodded. But Feiyun also said that if Liangchen promised Wu Zetian to keep it secret, Liangchen could not tell him
Liangchen listened to Feiyun's words, but said with some displeasure: "Big brother, what are you talking about?" What will I hide from you and my third sister? Even if I promised Wu Zetian, I would tell you. Wu Zetian and Mrs. Wang also knew this, so they didn't ask me not to tell you. ”
Feiyun saw that Liangchen was unhappy, and hurriedly apologized, it was he who lost his words. Feiyun grabbed Liangchen's hand again and lightly slapped himself twice in the face as a sign of punishment.
Liangchen took the opportunity to twist Feiyun's face, Feiyun was caught off guard, screamed in pain, and begged for mercy again and again. Liangchen couldn't help but laugh happily when he saw Feiyun pretending.
Liangchen then told Feiyun and Meijing that she didn't actually say anything to Wu Zetian, but only told Wu Zetian that if she didn't agree to pardon Wang Xiao and the two families, it would be impossible for her to leave the cave.
Liangchen also told Wu Zetian that his three brothers and sisters absolutely support Mrs. Wang in this regard. If Wu Zetian refused to agree to this, the three of them would not help Wu Zetian. Instead, he will help Mrs. Wang and deal with Wu Wei and others.
Liangchen thought that Mrs. Wang's request was reasonable and not excessive. On the contrary, Wu Zetian's approach back then was very excessive.
Wu Zetian thought for a while, and then agreed to Liangchen. However, according to Liangchen's opinion, Wu Zetian actually had it in his heart for a long time, and accepted Mrs. Wang's request, just to find a suitable step down.
Meijing then asked Mrs. Wang and Wu Zetian what they talked about in the end. Liangchen told Feiyun and Meijing that Mrs. Wang didn't say much, but threatened Wu Zetian a few words.
Mrs. Wang told Wu Zetian that the antidote she gave Wu Zetian could not completely detoxify. After she saw the edict of pardon, she would naturally send someone to send an antidote to Wu Zetian.
Of course, within a year, the poison on Wu Zetian's body will not attack, and it will not affect any of Wu Zetian's lives. But if a year later, Wu Zetian hasn't eaten the antidote, then he will die of poison, and even the gods can't save him!
When Wu Zetian heard this, she couldn't help but be shocked, she didn't expect Mrs. Wang to have such a hand. In view of the hardships he had suffered before, Wu Zetian had to believe it. She also knew that Mrs. Wang was a difficult person, and it was entirely possible for her to do this.
After listening to Mrs. Wang's words, Liangchen was also very shocked, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that Mrs. Wang would not lie, but it was.
