Chapter 173: It's raining and it's flowing down
Fan Liye turned over and dismounted, and at first glance he saw Lu Guanju dressed in men's clothes.
It's heroic indeed.
Lu Yiping took a few steps forward, just about to salute, but Fan Liye saluted him first: "Uncle Lu, Fan Liye should be entrusted by Wei Shuai to come to Pingnan City to clear Uncle Lu's charges. ”
Hearing Fan Liye say this, Lu Yiping knew that Wei Tiangang still chose to take this step after all.
His face was solemn, he looked at Fan Liye and said, "Your Highness has worked hard all the way, if you have anything to say, let's go upstairs and talk about it!"
After speaking, he looked at Wu Zhong and said: "Second brother, you go to find an inn in the city, and your Highness's living will be in charge of you for the time being, remember, bring more people." ”
Wu Zhong was ordered to leave.
Fan Liye nodded at Lu Yiping, then turned his head to look at Yuan Xi and said with a smile: "Brother Yuan Xi, let's meet again!"
Yuan Xi's footsteps moved slightly, and he nodded to Fan Liye in front of Lu Guanju and said, "I've seen His Royal Highness!"
After finishing speaking, he pulled Lu Guanju to the side and waited, and gave way to the road.
Unexpectedly, Lu Guanju took the initiative to stand up and smiled at Fan Liye: "Brother Liye, do you remember me?"
Fan Liye was taken aback, and after looking up and down, he said with a smile: "Remember, naturally remember, such a cute sister Guan Guan, how could I not remember?"
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Lu Yiping and said: "Uncle Lu, I can't imagine that I haven't seen him for many years, Sister Guan Guan is also a big girl, it's really a long time, Baiyun Canggou, I want to see Sister Guan Guan for the first time, it was still my father's birthday, I didn't expect that it would be a few years later, and I would be separated from him forever." ”
Saying this, Fan Liye's expression was a little gloomy, and he shook his head gently.
Melancholy people are always easy to make people feel sympathy and pity, seeing that Fan Liye looked lonely, and the high-spirited prince of the year was like two people, Lu Guanju stepped forward and persuaded softly: "Brother Liye, please mourn!"
Fan Liye squeezed out a smile and said, "Sister Guan Guan, it's okay, I'm just a little emotional, I'll be fine in a while!"
Lu Yiping, who was standing beside him, glanced at Yuan Xi, and then said in a low voice: "Your Highness, let's go!"
Fan Liye nodded and said to Lu Yiping, "Uncle Lu, please!"
Lu Yiping stretched out his hand and said, "Please!"
The two walked side by side, and when they walked to Yuan Xi's side, Fan Liye suddenly said: "Brother Yuan Xi, what I said to you in the palace that day was my true words, so don't slack off, in case you ......"
Halfway through his words, he winked at Yuan Xi.
Lu Guanju walked up to Yuan Xi and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yuan, what did Brother Liye tell you? ”
Cheng Shifei was also curious: "Brother Yuan, I didn't expect you to be so familiar with His Royal Highness the Second Son, he actually called you brother!"
A nameless fire inexplicably rose in Yuan Xi's heart, and he snorted lightly after looking at the right and wrong: "Familiar, very familiar, can be called a brother by him Fan Liye, I have to thank him for being able to look up to me Yuan Xi?"
Cheng Shifei could hear that Yuan Xi seemed to be a little unhappy in his heart, and his eyes quietly looked at Lu Guanju.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Xi said to Lu Guanju again: "I want to know what he Fan Liye said to me, you ask your brother Liye directly, why do you ask me here?"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and walked to the city gate alone.
Cheng knows why Yuan Xi is like this.
Lu Guanju frowned, stomped his foot lightly and said angrily: "What? ”
After saying that, he stood there puffing up.
Cheng Shifei gently tugged at Lu Guanju's sleeve and whispered, "Sister Guanguan, do you think Brother Yuan is angry?"
Lu Guanju crossed his arms and turned his head to look at Cheng Shifei and said, "Xiao Fei, did you say that he was unreasonable just now? I just asked, why did he talk to me in such a tone? I have known him for so long, and this is the first time he has spoken to me in such a tone." ”
After speaking, he said with a little grievance: "It's really~"
Cheng Shifei scratched his head and asked, "Sister Guan Guan, are you very familiar with His Royal Highness?"
When Lu Guanju heard Cheng mention Fan Liye, he smiled at him, and said, "Xiao Fei, in fact, I don't know him very well, but I just saw him when I went to the palace with my father a few years ago." ”
"Xiao Fei, speaking of which, he is not as good as you, at least you can still have a few tricks in my hands, and he, I just slapped him twice, so I cried him, don't you say it's funny?"
Speaking of this, she kicked a few times with her toes and said: "But after all, he is His Royal Highness, I knew that he couldn't help beating me so much, and I wouldn't be so ruthless, but he is also a man, although I cried at that time, but I told the king and my father that I fell by myself, so I lost a punishment from my father, and in the few days in the palace, he was pretty good to me, like a big brother, so I have a good impression of him." ”
Cheng Shifei's face showed a sudden expression, and then he laughed and said, "Sister Guan Guan, in your eyes, who is better, Brother Yuan or Second Highness?"
"Do you need to ask?"
Lu Guanju glared at right and wrong and said, "You are still not Brother Yuan's brother, can you ask such a stupid thing?"
"Am I stupid?"
Cheng Shifei smiled and said: "I'm afraid that it's Brother Yuan who is stupid now, Sister Guan Guan, haven't you figured out why Brother Yuan suddenly got angry?"
"Huh?"
Lu Guanju thought for a while and said to Cheng Zheng: "You mean to say, Brother Yuan, he is because of me and Brother Liye?"
Cheng Shifei blinked his eyes and gave him a look of comprehension, and went upstairs.
"What?"
Lu Guanju snorted lightly and chased after him.
After entering the house, Lu Yiping was not polite and sat on the main seat, while Fan Liye casually found a chair to sit down.
After sitting down, seeing that Yuan Xi didn't follow up, Lu Yiping knew that this kid was a little tempered in his heart.
He is a person who has come over, and Yuan Xi's thoughts are all written on his face, since he has selected Yuan Xi as the golden beetle son-in-law, he naturally has to say a few more words for him, so after he sat down, the first thing he said to Fan Liye had nothing to do with the current situation in Pingnan City.
"Second Highness, I intend to marry my little girl to Yuan Xi, what do you think?"
As soon as Fan Liye's mind turned, he understood the meaning of Lu Yiping's words.
He chuckled and said, "Uncle Lu, Yuan Xi is the dragon and phoenix among people, and Guan Guan's sister is indeed a pair made in heaven, but you can't ask me this, right?"
Lu Yiping leaned back, put his hands on the armrests, looked at Fan Liye and said, "Second Highness, I'm afraid that you have any misunderstanding about the little girl, so it's better to say some things!"
Fan Liye laughed twice and said, "Uncle Lu, you are too worried. ”
After speaking, he shook his head with a smile and said in a low voice: "Don't hide it from Uncle Lu, I had plans to join forces with Sister Guan Guan before, because I Fan Liye has to think about my own future." After thinking about it, I want to bet this treasure on you, so when my father was alive, I would mention Sister Guan Guan in front of Uncle Lu many times. But who would have thought that things would happen to such a point today, I, Fan Liye, were framed by my own eldest brother as the one who murdered my biological father, and Wei Shuai and you also became my rebels in Bazhou. ”
With a light sigh, he continued: "Uncle Lu, in fact, when I was in the palace, I knew that you were reluctant to marry Sister Guan Guan to me, so ah, instead of thinking about Sister Guan Guan, it is better to be honest with you. ”
After speaking, he stood up, bowed deeply to Lu Yiping and said, "Uncle Lu, right now, I Fan Liye is alone, and I implore my uncle to help me eradicate the traitors and restore peace to my Bazhou." ”
Even if Fan Liye said this, Lu Yiping would work against Fan Jiangong in order to protect himself, but no matter what reason made him like this, he Lu Yiping would be a traitor.
But after Fan Liye said this, the meaning was very different.
Lu Yiping stood up, walked to Fan Liye, who couldn't afford to hold on for a long time, and helped him up.
Sighing lightly, Lu Yiping looked at Fan Liye's eyes and said: "Your Highness can come to Pingnan City, I have already guessed what Wei Shuai thinks in his heart, although the current situation is what he Jia Nanfeng wants to see the most, but we have no choice, so we have to take advantage of the situation, blame only your brother Wang for not knowing anyone." ”
"Your Highness, rest assured, I, Lu Yiping's heart, can show the sun and the moon. ”
Fan Liye took a deep breath and said, "It is a blessing to have the support of Wei Shuai and Uncle Lu. ”
Lu Yiping nodded, and then asked in a deep voice, "Your Highness, what is the attitude of Chu Yunfei in Yunshang City?"
Fan Liye nodded and said, "After arriving in Yunshang City, I went with Wei Shuai to meet General Chu. After listening to me explain the truth of the matter to Wei Shuai, General Chu chose to believe us. ”
Lu Yiping confirmed again: "Is this really the case? Or is he afraid of Wei Shuai's army and has a false relationship with you?"
Fan Liye pondered: "You shouldn't be fake, General Chu is also a person who understands righteousness. Uncle Lu, do you know that there are not only General Chu's men and horses in Yunshang City, but also the men and horses under Wei Shuai's command, in fact, there are 5,000 people secretly left in the city. ”
Lu Yiping nodded and said, "That's very good!"
Then motioned for Fan Liye to sit down, he sat next to Fan Liye and continued: "Your Highness, Yuan Xi and I have probably guessed why Jia Nanfeng is planning like this!"
"What?"
Fan Liye exclaimed: "Uncle Lu, you also guessed? Wei Shuai and I also discussed this matter for a long time, and in the end, the two of us thought that he, Jia Nanfeng, might be the first person behind the scenes in Bazhou, and Feng Yuan and Ning Kai were his helpers. ”
Hearing Fan Liye say this, Lu Yiping was silent for a moment and said: "It turns out that His Royal Highness and Wei Shuai thought like this, but it was a little different from my and Yuan Xi's guesses. ”
"Then what does Uncle Lu think?"
Lu Yiping pondered for a moment, looked at Fan Liye and asked, "Your Highness, did he Jia Nanfeng give you a portrait of a little girl?"
Fan Liye nodded and smiled: "At that time, I didn't know that Yuan Xi and Sister Guan Guan were already in love, and I took that portrait to find Yuan Xi to inquire about Sister Guan Guan, you don't know, the attitude of Brother Yuan Xi was very strange at that time, but I didn't think much about it at that time, but it caused Yuan Xi to have a pimple in his heart." ”
Then he looked in the direction of the door, and the corners of his mouth raised: "It seems that Uncle Lu is not wrong, Brother Yuanxi is infatuated with Sister Guan Guan, just now I just deliberately laughed with him, you look at him, he doesn't even bother to see me." ”
Lu Yiping nodded and chuckled and said: "Yuan Xi, this child, has a simple temperament and a kind nature, but because he had less contact with people when he was young, and his master is a master, so in his eyes, he only likes and dislikes, and sometimes he will seem maverick." ”
"At that time, I took him to the palace, I was really afraid that he would cause some trouble for me in front of the first king, His Royal Highness didn't know, this kid's temper came up, where would he care who the person in front of him was, and he didn't show any mercy when he spoke. ”
Then he smiled bitterly and said, "When I first saw him, I was choked by him. ”
Fan Liye couldn't help laughing, and smiled at Lu Yiping: "Uncle Lu, that day in the main hall, I didn't look at Yuan Xi less, and I thought he was an unruly person at that time. ”
Lu Yiping shook his head and said: "Actually, he is not unruly, but in his heart, he treats people and things as if he is different from ordinary people, what is the difference, I don't understand, but in fact, in my heart, I agree with his approach, but I agree with it, but I don't do that." ”
He raised his eyes to look at Fan Liye and said, "Does Your Highness think that what I said is very contradictory?"
Fan Liye was silent for a moment, looked at Lu Yiping and said, "Uncle Lu, after hearing you say this, I envy Yuan Xi. I envy him for having such a mysterious master, envy him for having such a high opinion of you, and even more envy for the freedom in his heart. ”
Hearing Fan Liye say the word "freedom", Lu Yiping also fell silent.
What is Freedom?
Doesn't he have freedom?
Fan Liye is still envious of Yuan Xi?
Everyone has freedom, and everyone has no freedom.
The freedom of the body is different from the freedom of the mind.
And what Fan Liye envies is the freedom in Yuan Xi's heart.
Lu Yiping remembered himself when he was young.
After sighing, he said: "Maybe it's because he's still very young and too shallow in the world, but I hope he can keep this freedom and not lose it as he gets deeper into the world." ”
Fan Liye saw that Lu Yiping's expression was a little dazed, and said softly: "Uncle Lu, you haven't told me what your guess is!"
Lu Yiping picked up his thoughts, looked at Fan Liye and smiled apologetically: "I just remembered what happened when I was studying art in Qingyun Sect, and I was a little distracted, which made His Highness smile." ”
"Regarding the portrait of a little girl in His Highness's hand, Yuan Xi told me, and this portrait was given to His Highness by Jia Nanfeng, right?"
Fan Liye nodded.
"Your Highness, as far as I know, he Jia Nanfeng has no acquaintances in Pingnan City, so where did he get that portrait from? ”
Fan Liye thought for a while and said, "I remember, the person who attacked Guan Guan's sister was from Jingzhou. ”
Lu Yiping nodded and said: "Yes, so I guess that he, Jia Nanfeng and Feng Yuan, may have colluded with Jingzhou." ”
Fan Liye stood up in shock, walked a few steps back and forth, and said: "In this case, if Jingzhou comes to attack, although there is Wei Shuai and General Chu guarding Yunshang City together, but if they send troops over again to form an encirclement, then Yunshang City will not be protected, and at that time, my Bazhou will become a fish on Jingzhou's chopping board." ”
Lu Yiping nodded and said: "I'm also afraid that this will happen, so I have repaired a book, and ordered someone to send it to Wei Shuai quickly, right now Feng Yuan is leading a large army to suppress me to level Nancheng, and I will try my best to delay it now." ”
After speaking, he stood up and said: "Your Highness, Feng Yuan's men and horses are only a few thousand more than my Pingnan City, originally according to my thoughts, Wei Shuai sent a group of people to my Pingnan City quickly, and together with me, Feng Yuan's army, but it is not easy to use this method now. ”
Fan Liye was puzzled: "Uncle Lu, the soldiers are very fast, in this case, why is he Feng Yuan already overwhelmed the city with a large army, why don't he attack the city?
Lu Yiping shook his head lightly and said: "Your Highness, the matter of fighting is not so simple, we have the city wall to defend, if Feng Yuan is not completely sure, he will not do it easily, not to mention, I am afraid that his move is a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain." In addition, in this Pingnan City, there will definitely be people from Jia Nanfeng, I don't know what tricks they will come up with. ”
Fan Liye thought for a while and said: "Uncle Lu, you and Wei Shuai are only good at marching and fighting, although I have also read the art of war, after all, it is a paper talk, so I won't mix it up, just see what arrangement Wei Shuai will make!"
Lu Yiping nodded and said: "Feng Yuan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, what we can think of, he can naturally think of it, and I can only see the tricks at the moment, but fortunately, His Royal Highness has come to Pingnan City now, but it can help me stabilize the morale of the army." ”
Fan Liye was silent for a moment, looked up at Lu Yiping and said, "Uncle Lu, if we really want to be famous, that Fan Liye must stand up and fight with Fan Jiangong for the position of King of Shu." ”
Lu Yiping stared at Fan Liye's eyes for a moment and asked, "Your Highness, are you ready?"
Fan Liye took a deep breath and said: "If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent, for the sake of Fan's century-old foundation, I Fan Liye can't care about anything." ”
After speaking, he stood with his hands in his hands, and said regretfully: "I just regret it, why didn't I make a decision that day, just sit on that chair, and stupidly wait for him Fan Jiangong to come back." ”
Hearing Fan Liye say this, Lu Yiping knelt on one knee, "Lu Yiping has seen the king!"
Fan Liye hurriedly helped Lu Yiping up and said: "What is Uncle Lu doing, right now, I don't even have a seal, but your voice is so embarrassing!"
Lu Yiping said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, with us, you are the king of Bazhou, as for the seal, the minister will bring it back to you!"
Fan Liye's expression was a little moved, and he said with tears in his eyes: "I just said that I wouldn't be wrong, I knew that Uncle Lu was the most trustworthy one." ”
Lu Yiping helped Fan Liye to the throne and said, "The king sits, and I will go and gather all the future to meet the king." ”
After speaking, he shouted outside the door: "Someone~"
The guards outside the door entered.
"Pass my general order, summon the commander and above to order him to come here quickly, and in addition, let Yuan Xi and the eldest lady also come over!"
At the head of the city wall, Yuan Xi found a place to sit casually, one leg was supported on the city wall, and the other leg was dangling outside the city.
Lu Guanju stood beside him and did not speak.
Cheng Shifei, who quietly called the soldiers near the two of them, watched it anxiously not far away.
Seeing this, Zhou Bochang, who was patrolling back and forth on the city wall, whispered to Cheng Shifei and asked, "Xiaofei, what's wrong?
Cheng Shifei glanced around, and said in a low voice: "It's not because of the second highness who just came, Sister Guan Guan said a few words to him, Brother Yuan's heart, something is not a taste!"
Zhou Bochang chuckled lightly and continued to patrol.
People who talk about love, which one won't experience some stumbles?
It's a little thing, it's a fart!
If there is no minor misunderstanding between the two, then it is a big problem.
Before leaving, Zhou Bochang didn't forget to pull right and wrong.
Yuan Xi coughed lightly, and he quietly turned his head to look at the side of him, who had been looking ahead.
Lu Guanju pretended not to hear anything.
Yuan Xi pressed it with one hand, squatted on the top of the city wall, and said to himself: "This stone is weird and hard, and it hurts to sit for a long time." ”
Lu Guanju glanced at Yuan Xi, "You deserve it!"
Yuan Xi laughed and said: "Yes, yes, I deserve it, Guan Guan, I somehow said something like that, don't take it to heart!"
In fact, after he went up to the city wall, his anger disappeared.
Because he figured out one thing, if Lu Guanju had thoughts about Fan Liye, where would he wait for him to appear.
It's just that he doesn't know how to open it.
Then he walked slowly on the city wall, hoping that Lu Guanju would catch up with him, pulling his sleeve and shouting, "Brother Yuan!"
It's a pity that someone did call him, but it wasn't Lu Guanju.
Cheng Shifei whispered to him, Sister Guan Guan is angry, you have to coax well.
In fact, Lu Guanju was not angry at all at this time.
She's just angry.
Therefore, when she walked by Yuan Xi's side, it was as if she hadn't seen Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi, who had originally thought of the rhetoric, was at a loss again.
So there was this scene in front of me.
The scenery is almost gone, and Lu Guanju's anger is almost gone.
She glared at Yuan Xi, snorted lightly and said, "I'm not like someone who has such a small heart!"
When Yuan Xi heard this, his eyes rolled and he looked at Cheng Cheng, who had been pulled away by Zhou Bochang, and then whispered: "Yes, yes, yes, I have a small heart, so small that I can only accommodate a girl named Guan Guan!"
Lu Guanju glanced at Yuan Xi, "Flamboyant!"
Yuan Xi saw that Lu Guanju's face was a little crimson, and he knew that this sentence had worked, and his heart was still Xiao Fei and knowledgeable.
He jumped down from the city wall, grabbed Lu Guanju's hand, and said softly: "The words are true, whether it is flamboyant or not, you have to try it to know!"
This sentence was taught to him by right and wrong.
At that time, he asked right and wrong, whether he would be considered frivolous and flamboyant when he spoke like this.
Tell him that there is no girl who doesn't like to listen to love words, you just do what you say.
Later, I heard that Yuan Xi had just held hands with Lu Guanju, so he told Yuan Xi this sentence.
Lu Guanju was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it for a while, and then felt that this sentence didn't seem to be a good thing, so he turned his head to look at Yuan Xi, and saw him with a serious face, so he asked: "Brother Yuan, what do you mean by this? I, I don't really understand!"
"Huh?"
Yuan Xi scratched his head.
In fact, he didn't know why Xiao had to say something like "I only knew after trying".
At that time, he also asked Cheng right and wrong, but Cheng right and wrong showed a mysterious look on his face, but he didn't tell him the answer.
He hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Eh~, Guan Guan, I read this sentence from the book, but I haven't thought about it deeply." ”
"What you saw in the book?"
Lu Guanju looked suspicious, "Why haven't I read such a book? What a good book, let me read it one day?"
Yuan Xi rubbed his palms, and began to complain a little in his heart.
He laughed dryly and said, "I saw it from Xiao Fei, wait until I ask him another day!"
Lu Guanju glanced at right and wrong from afar.
Cheng Shifei shuddered.
Yuan Xi saw that Lu Guanju was no longer angry, so he smiled and said, "Guanguan, aren't you angry?"
Lu Guanju lightly bumped Yuan Xi's waist.
She has become accustomed to Yuan Xi's way of speaking, sometimes she can be angry with someone directly, and sometimes she will suddenly come out with a sweet word, which makes her heart sweet for a long time.
She loved it.
After all, I've heard a lot of love words, and it's not as sweet as the first time.
It's still good like Brother Yuan.
Lu Guanju didn't know that when a person likes someone, then what she sees in her eyes is what she likes.
Love can make people lost.
It's also fascinating.
Yuan Xi was about to take Lu Guanju's hand and leave, so he went to see Fan Liye hand in hand.
In fact, he Fan Liye can say whatever he likes, and what does he have to do with him.
At this time, a small dot appears on the opposite side.
The dots grew bigger and bigger, and finally became a figure.
Yuan Xi's eyes shrank.
