The capital of the city, the south of the city

Since Luo Pei was imprisoned, a dignified mansion of a third-class master has changed from being quite lively to the current appearance of a rogue at the door.

When Jian Qu arrived in an ox cart, this whole street was the most desolate and deserted at the door of this house, and even the stone lion at the door was covered with a layer of dust, which was caused by the people of the mansion who did not want to take care of it.

Thinking of the scenery he knew Luo Pei Luo Qincha used to be, and thinking of the excitement brought by seeing that scene on the shore that day, Jian Qu was in a complicated mood, and stood for a moment before going up the steps and knocking on the door.

After a while, there were footsteps from far and near.

"Who is it? My son-in-law has not returned to the house yet, and he can't see guests for the time being!" a voice sounded from inside the door, it was a little girl, a little timid.

Jian Qu sighed in his heart, knowing that Luo Pei had been imprisoned for half a year, and the housekeepers and stewards who had some identities and goods had already left, and they were only some people with low status and nowhere to go, so he calmly replied: "I am Jian Qu, the clerk of the Acting Prince's Mansion, and I came to meet your wife on the order of my lord." ”

"Daiguo Mansion?" The person inside hesitated: "Please wait a while, sir, I'll go and report to Madame!"

Then he heard footsteps hurrying away.

Jian Qu only waited outside for a while, and this time there was footsteps from inside again, a little messy, at least there were more than three people.

With a squeak, the door opened, and a woman who was not young took a few maids and servants to greet her in person, which made Jian Qu feel relieved

The woman at the head should be Luo Pei's wife Mo, look carefully, Luo Moshi is around fifty years old, with a straight goose egg face, thin eyebrows, although it is still upright, even when she is young, she is afraid that she is not beautiful, and Jian Qu has seen each other and said, "Mr. Jian is a distinguished guest, please talk inside!"

Jian Qu knew the situation of Luo Pei's family before he came, Luo Pei has a wife and two sons, the wife is the original wife, the same age as Luo Pei, the eldest son has married and has an heir, more than 20 years old, the second son is 16 years old, originally wanted to marry, but because Luo Pei was suddenly imprisoned, the matter of discussing marriage was over.

Jian Qu's identity, even if Su Zizhi changed from a deputy marquis to a national prince, and the documents in his mansion have also changed from nine products to nine products, but he is still a small official, and he is nothing outside the capital.

But who makes the phoenix with hair not as good as a chicken, when Luo Pei was a member of the third grade in the past, he was a big official who could fight against the emperor and grandson, but now that he is in prison, his family can't even enter the prison to visit Luo Pei, he wants to send things in, and he has to ask for people in various ways, and more people avoid them, and in the end, only Dai Guogong is willing to help.

Although Jian Qu is not from a noble family, but only one year, neatly dressed, shoes and hats, and different bearing, when he arrived at the main courtyard hall, Mo invited Jian Qu to sit down, and let people serve tea: "Mr. Jian and Dai Guogong helped hand over the family letter, I am really grateful, please take a seat." ”

Although the person who came to Luofu was not Jian Qu, in Mo's heart, even his relatives were afraid to avoid it in time, and the Daiguo Mansion was willing to lend a hand, no matter what the purpose was, it was worth remembering.

Jian Qu came over this time to introduce Luo Pei's family to Luo Pei's situation in prison, since the last time Su Ziji personally visited Luo Pei once, he asked Jian Qu or Yedao people to visit him several times, or handed some food to him.

After all, Su Zi's identity is too sensitive.

Jian Qu took a sip of tea and slowly put it down.

"Mrs. Mo doesn't need to be polite, I came here this time to take a look at you and the two sons for my lord. ”

"Lord Luo and my lord have a public affair, when I went out of Beijing to go to work and returned, I relied on Lord Luo to take care of it, what happened to your house, although I sent someone to the Acting Mansion, my lord said, but wherever I can help, I will help. ”

Listening to his words of condolence, Mo's eyes turned red for a moment, and he choked up a little and asked, "I don't know how my master is doing now?" Has Mr. Jian seen him?"

"I just saw it yesterday, Madame, rest assured, Lord Luo is all right, my lord has asked people to send food, clothing, bedding to Lord Luo, everything used in this season is readily available, and the jailers and jailers will not let Lord Luo suffer in prison. ”

When Luo Moshi heard this, he choked up and bowed: "In this way, thank you Dai Guogong and Mr. Jian for your great kindness." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, you are a three-grade Hao, I never dare to be. Jian Qu hurriedly avoided it, and stretched out his hand to help him, thinking of what he had heard the lord say when he came, and comforted: "Lord Luo is fine, I think he will be released soon and reunite with your family." ”

In fact, Jian Qu, who said this, didn't believe that this was true, but only felt that it was comforting.

But these words really worked, Mo's eyes were red, and he thanked Jian again.

Jian Qu has already brought the words to him, and the attitude of the Daiguo Mansion has also been put out, so he will stay for a short time, after all, the man is not there, and he has communicated with the female relatives for too long, and it is not good to spread it.

And when he proposed to leave, Mo suddenly said, "Please wait for a while, Mr. Jian." ”

"The eldest prince should be back at this time, you go and see, when he comes back, call him over, and say that there is a distinguished guest coming to the door, let him come quickly. ”

She said to a maid, who immediately left.

Jian Qu's heart skipped a slight beat, and he thought secretly: "Could it be that this is also expected by the lord?"

After a while, sure enough, a young man came over, seemed to be in a hurry, running full of sweat, and when he saw Jian Qu, he bowed heavily, and the frightened Jian Qu hurriedly helped him up: "I can't help it, I can't help it, you are a Jinshi background, you are a seven-grade official, I am only a nine-grade official, how can I stand it?"

"That's not the case, Mr. Jian, I have done these things for my Luo family on behalf of the Guogong Mansion, the concubine body is in my heart, and the two sons of the concubine body are also in mind, this is the grace of saving my father, not to mention a kowtow, even a hundred thousand, and I can bear it. ”

"Daiguo Gong has this great kindness, the Luo family is really unable to repay it, but in the future, if there is an order on behalf of the Guogong Mansion, the Luo family will respectfully obey the order. ”

"What my mother said is that my father is in prison, I am ashamed to be a son of man, and I can't replace it at all, on behalf of the great grace of the country, I am willing to serve the work of dogs and horses, if there is something in the future, please command!"

Luo Pei's eldest son, Luo Zhengqi, said heavily.

This young man experienced a lot of warmth and coldness when his father was imprisoned, even if his own father-in-law refused to help after his father was imprisoned, let alone the King of Shu.

Only the Daiguo Mansion has helped each other several times since his father was imprisoned, and this kind of friendship, even if he only wants to take the Luo family for his own use, the sincerity is enough to move people's hearts.

"I really don't dare to take this courtesy, I really don't dare to take it. Having said that, after getting such a harvest, Jian Qu was in a very happy mood when he went out.

"Don't say it's the Luo family, the handsome Qian Zhidong has a grudge against the lord, or the lord settled his wife and daughter, and gave him gold and silver, which makes me admire. ”

"The lord's foundation is shallow, but he is kind to people and has formed a lot of good karma. ”

When the ox cart went out, it swayed slightly, passed by with an ox cart, and jumped at each other, Jian Qu lifted the curtain and glanced at the car, and was slightly startled, thoughtful, and the joy was slightly cold.

"If I look at it well, this is the ox cart of King Lu's mansion, why did King Lu's people come here, did they also come to see the Luo family?"
