Chapter 13: Get along day and night
Murong Lei paused for a moment, and then said: "The people don't fight with the officials, pity us where are the opponents of the government, the people of our family are caught and run......
"Isn't there a royal law?" In Alen's view, the royal law is everything.
"Wang Fa, dreaming, even sister, you are too naΓ―ve, now the emperor is mediocre, traitorous ministers are in charge, the people are not happy, and there are constant troubles, how can there be a king law. Murong Lei said helplessly.
Ah Lian is a simple fisherman's girl, not deeply involved in the world, how can she know these things in the court.
Ah Lian asked again: "Brother Murong, don't be too sad, good people have their own good rewards." β
Murong Lei said softly: "As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will fight for it." β
Ah Lian asked ignorantly: "Then isn't there nowhere to sue for your family's injustice?"
Murong Lei smiled bitterly and said: "That's not necessarily, I only need to find one person, and my family's unjust case will definitely be rehabilitated, but that person is far away in the capital, because of his duty, he has no fixed place, and he may not be able to find him." What's more, the people in the government are still looking for me everywhere, and the bandits are also looking for me, so it is unknown whether I can go to the capital or not. β
"Who is that person?" asked Allen.
Murong Lei retracted his thoughts, pondered for a moment, and said: "That person is a distant uncle of mine whose surname is Huang, and he is in charge of thousands of households in Dongchang, not to mention that he is a government official, even a bigger provincial official does not dare to offend Dongchang." I didn't want to tell you at first, because I was afraid that the more you knew, the more dangerous it would be for you. You must know that the wall has ears, in case it spreads, it will be difficult for me to travel to the capital, do you say yes or no?"
At that time, the East Factory, its full name was "East Editorial Factory", and now it is a three-in-one agency that integrates privileged supervision, secret service organizations and secret police. Because it directly served the emperor, Dongchang's power was greater than that of Jinyiwei. The leaders of the East Factory are all held by eunuchs, so the East Factory is also called "Factory Gong"
Even if he thought about it, he couldn't find a suitable language to comfort Murong Lei. Bowing his head and stroking the corners of his clothes, thinking about his own situation, his heart was confused.
Ah Lian thought in his heart, his home by the river was more and less auspicious in this flood, and he had all his eggs under the nest? The whole Xiaowangzhuang was flooded, and they didn't know where they had gone, and they were also looking for me? What should I do now? It always feels inappropriate to look for my father and mother alone, the world is impermanent, people's hearts are not ancient, I am a weak woman, almost powerless, in case I meet a bad person, what can I do?
Murong Lei was also thinking about how to arrange the girl in front of him at this time. It is definitely not possible to take her to the capital, she is already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect herself, in case she encounters the lackeys of the government, wouldn't it hurt her to bring her in?
The two of them had their own thoughts, looked at the raging flames, and fell into deep thought.
Ah Lian thought about it, thought of his own situation, and thought of his relatives, and couldn't help but feel sad and sobbed.
When Murong Lei saw her crying, he immediately panicked. He gently hugged Ah Lian's fragrant shoulders and said, "Sister Lian, Ji people have their own natural appearance, uncles and aunts will definitely be able to escape this catastrophe, you don't have to be too sad, I will accompany you to find them tomorrow." β
Under Murong Lei's comfort, Ah Lian cried more and more.
Murong Lei said discouragedly: "Alas, it's all my fault for being useless....... I can't handle my own affairs well, and I can't help yours. β
Ah Lian cried for a while, his emotions were released, and his mood gradually calmed down.
Looking at Murong Lei's handsome face, his hand wrapped around his shoulders again, Ah Lian plucked up his courage and said to Murong Lei: "Brother Murong, I know that I can't climb high, but I just ...... Just...... Do you have any words for you?"
At that time, feudal etiquette and religion did not give and receive kisses, and Ah Lian crossed his qi for him in order to save Murong Lei, which is now artificial respiration.
Coupled with Murong Lei's intimate behavior, Ah Lian asked this question.
Murong Lei paused for a moment, then raised his finger and pointed upward, and said with a solemn oath: "Sister Lian, I, Murong Lei, am not a negative person, one day, I will marry Sister Lian as my wife." If you have a different heart......"
Ah Lian interrupted Murong Lei and said, "I don't dare to expect to be your wife, as long as you can remember this situation and remember me." After that, he leaned on Murong Lei's arms and never spoke again.
Murong Lei was a beautiful woman in his arms, and he no longer spoke, enjoying this rare moment of warmth.
The next day, Murong Lei and Aleven simply disguised themselves as a pair of brothers and sisters, and went to a nearby house early in the morning to inquire about the situation in Xiaowangzhuang.
I inquired about many people, and the result was the same, as they thought, Xiaowangzhuang and several surrounding villages were flooded, and the people in those villages died, and the people in the village died, and the people who were displaced were displaced, and the world was so big that it was impossible to find it. I only hope that the flood will recede as soon as possible, so that there is a glimmer of hope to find relatives.
Now that the water is still rising, I don't know when and when it will be able to recover from the past, Ah Lian can only look at the vast river and cry with red eyes. And prayed silently in his heart: "Amitabha, the Bodhisattva who saves suffering, please bless my parents, my sister and my family." β
Murong Lei and the others didn't dare to stay in a hotel, so they found a family to live in a remote village called Wangjiaji.
The old couple of this family, the man's surname is Wang, and the woman's name and surname are unknown, they are both sixty or seventy years old, loyal and honest people, and they happen to have no children and daughters under their knees, Murong Lei gave some money and stayed.
Ah Lian is well-behaved, and he recognized the old couple as godfather and godmother, but he was also happy.
After a few more days, Murong Lei has been accompanying Ah Lian to find his relatives, but there is no news of Ah Lian's relatives, fortunately, the people chasing Murong Lei have not appeared in the past few days. The two get along day and night, and their relationship is deeper.
Early this morning, Ah Lian saw Murong Lei standing alone in the courtyard, looking at the sky with his hands in his hands, frowning, so he asked, "Brother, you have a lot of worries, are you leaving?"
Murong Lei held Ah Lian's hand and said excitedly: "I can't be greedy for the love of my children, and put aside the major affairs of the Murong family, and drag it out for a day, the Murong family's arrested people will be more dangerous, so ......"
"Brother, you don't need to say it, you can go if you have a big event, no matter where you go, just remember to come back, just remember me as a girl," Ah Lian said quietly.
Holding back his tears, Allen turned around and ran into the house.
Murong Lei wanted to chase after him, but stopped again. He knew that he couldn't go after this chase. Murong Lei found Ah Lian's godfather and godmother and said, "Uncle and aunt, Ah Lian will ask you to take care of it." With that, Murong Lei bowed deeply to them, took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and handed them over, and then left resolutely.
The end of the world is long, when is the return date?
Granny Yin and I were so focused that we didn't dare to breathe, and we didn't dare to breathe until Xiaoqian finished telling the story, and we were relieved.
Xiao Qian said: "My story is finished, the plot in it is vivid, is it true, is that Ah Lian me in my previous life? and is that Murong Lei a big thunder?" β
Granny Yin smiled and said, "Girl, don't be in a hurry, you drink saliva first, and let me speak slowly." β
I interjected: "Xiaoqian, did Murong Lei come back later?"
Xiao Qian glanced at me and said, "I don't know, my dream is here, let you wake up, if you go back to the dream, how nice would it be?", after speaking, her face showed a look of yearning.
Granny Yin glanced at Xiao Qian and said, "When it's true, it's false." The story between you and him is nearing the end, and I owe you an ending, and there are always some regrets in the world. It's better not to know if you have time to know, and leave a little room for imagination, isn't it perfect?"
"Then there is no way to go back to the dream?" Xiao Qian shouted unwillingly.
Granny Yin then said: "It's not impossible, if the girl really wants to know the ending, I'll continue your dream another day, so that you can make up for your regrets, but I know, maybe the regrets in life are even greater." β
"I'm not afraid of this, no matter what the ending is, I can bear it, I can't bear a story without an ending. "Xiaoqian is stronger than I thought.
"Alright then, another day, the old woman will not let you down. Granny Yin generously agreed.
Xiaoqian's face was full of anticipation, and she turned her face to look at me.
I shrugged my shoulders and made an OK gesture.
Granny Yin muttered, "You stay for a while, and I'll call for the thunder again." I hope there are no surprises this time."
This time, Granny Yin was engrossed in it, wandering around the thunder, chanting words in her mouth. He walked behind Da Lei, bit the tip of his tongue, screamed, and dipped his right index finger in some blood, and his fingertips quickly patted the back of Da Lei's head.
Da Lei leaned forward, but then returned to his original form.
Xiao Qian's face was nervous, and my heart also rose to my throat.
Butβ
Granny Yin's expression was solemn and she said, "Why can't Da Lei wake up?" I can only call the old man and ask him to help him go over there to take a look and see what is going on. β
I nodded in agreement.
After that, Granny Yin walked to the table, lit three sticks of incense with a match, put it on the top of her head and circled it a few times, then bowed respectfully to the old man's portrait, and said, "Old ghost, come out and show up, don't hide, there are no outsiders here." β
There was a few wisps of wind blowing cold next to the table, and an old man appeared in the wind.
The old man was not tall and wore an old-fashioned robe. He glanced around, then finally stopped at me, probably a little afraid of me, and instinctively took a step back.
