Chapter 36 Twilight Drifting Clouds Are Farewell
Duanmu Er smiled and said: "It's also a karma, Lao Dao thought that he would die of old age on this Baiyun Mountain, thanks to Brother Lin, I can walk with you this time, hahaha!"
Tang Muxin was still wondering why he refused to go down the mountain to see Di Renjie's illness no matter what, but at this moment, he suddenly went down the mountain with a sigh of relief, Lin Jianlan smiled and said: "It is possible to go the same way, Duanmu Daoist and Brother Mo are eager to go down the mountain, I'm afraid it will be too late to entertain us for this meal, if the Daoist doesn't dislike it, wait until you go down the mountain, and I will be the east in Sanyuan City." ”
Duanmu Ear waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it when we go down the mountain." With that, he was already running downward.
Lin Jianlan took Nian Xiaoxia's hand, put the box away and let him hold it in his arms, Fang and everyone went down the mountain, thinking of the loneliness of this deep mountain, it is difficult for Duanmu and Mo Dan to be here, and it will be more than ten years, and the future people will go to the empty building, the flowers and plants will be put away, and they will not come again, which adds a little sadness, and looks back at the transcendent pavilion in the twilight, the figure of the beautiful woman who hangs in the dust is still vaguely recognizable, Fang sighed, and walked down slowly.
Nian Xiaoxia thought he was walking slowly, broke free of his hand and ran forward, and after a while, he ran back again, took Lin Jianlan's hand again, and said with a smile on his face: "Xiao Hei bit Grandpa Duanmu's robe and didn't let go! One ran in front, and the other chased behind." ”
Lin Jianlan Fang thought of the black donkey, which seemed to be incompatible with Duanmu'er, and he was afraid that Duanmu'er would be suffocated along the way, so he couldn't help but smile: "I haven't come to see you for a long time, but this time I came, but I let you be separated from them, is there anything interesting when you are in the mountains?" ”
Young Xiaoxia is still young, and he is not sad about the separation, and he is already happy, one by one, his hands are dancing, his forehead is already sweating, Lin Jianlan can't help nodding, although there is a smile on the corner of his mouth, he didn't listen to it, and he has already wandered out of the world.
They were the slowest to walk, and when they reached the bottom of the mountain, there were a few people standing at the small intersection, which seemed to be extremely crowded, Lin Jianlan took the last step and said secretly: "Sure enough, it is one hundred and eighteen steps, and the mechanism of that box is also somewhat interesting." ”
Tang Mu's entourage had already come over, whispered a few words, Tang Mu said respectfully: "I have already prepared the carriage and horses below, if the Taoist chief does not dislike it, he will go to Sanyuan to make a point, and the inn has already been set." ”
Duanmu Dao Chang looked back at the Baiyun Mountain, which could not be seen at the top, since he came here, because he could not go down the mountain, he had not looked up like this for more than ten years, the tip of the mountain was hidden in the twilight, and the shadows of the trees on it could not be seen very clearly, and the flowing clouds also looked groggy, and he exhaled a long breath, at this time he really wanted to leave, but he couldn't say whether he was happy or reluctant, and turned back and said: "No need, the old Tao and my rebel will be separated from you." ”
Mo Dan did not refute Duanmu for the first time, his expression was a little gloomy, and he handed the reins of the black donkey to Lin Jianlan and said: "This guy has the right to make a leg for his brother, he and my master are not compatible, and it is not easy to walk along the way." ”
Lin Jianlan nodded, knowing that no matter how long or late the parting was, no matter how much he kept it, it would be better to be more free and easy, and said with a smile: "When my matter is over, I must go to you and the Taoist chief." ”
Everyone watched them fly away, one old and one young, and Nian Xiaoxia kept waving his hand until he could no longer see his figure, Tang Mufang said: "It's getting late, the Taoist refutes my face, can you not give me a thin noodle, the carriage and horses are here, how about going to Sanyuan City to rest for a night?"
Seeing that he was so humble as a prince, Lin Jianlan and Lu Man and others couldn't refuse, so they had to get into the car, Lin Jianlan just pulled Xiaoxia up, and saw Lu Man also come up, Bai Zongping and Ma Wanggang were about to come over, but Tang Mu walked to another car and said: "The two of you come here, the carriage and horses are there, don't be too crowded." ”
Bai Zongping had to go up sullenly, and seeing that everyone had gotten into the car, Tang Mucai made a gesture, and he also boarded Lu Man and Lin Jianlan's car, and the group slowly left the barren forest with the sound of the wheels bumping.
The carriage was silent, no one spoke, Lu Man only leaned to the side, lifting the curtain from time to time to look out, but the night was getting thicker, and it was difficult to distinguish the scenery outside. After walking for a while, Lu Manfang was a little surprised and said, "Brother, look!"
Lin Jianlan turned his head sideways and looked out, but it was the village where he met Lu Man for the first time, and the shadows were located in the moonlight, and the moonlight was sprinkled on Lu Man's face at the moment, shining like snow.
Lu Man asked him to see the old scene, but he wanted to remind him of the tricks he had played with the second couple in the shop, and the atmosphere was lively, and at this moment, seeing the melancholy on his face, her seven thoughts, suddenly became a little clear, so she didn't speak anymore, and still maintained a posture and looked at the night empty.
Finally managed to get to Sanyuan, although the dinner was rich, no one had the heart to chew on the case, and they went back to the room after a hasty deal with it, but after returning to the room, Lin Jianlan still couldn't sleep peacefully, so he had to go out of the room again.
Although Sanyuan City is small, but if it is powerful and powerful, there is nothing that cannot be done, and the place where Tang Mu chose to settle down is not a guest room, but the back hall of the palace, and the emperor's relatives are naturally hospitalized. The back hall is also quiet and elegant, and there are a few bamboo branches and flowers planted, Lin Jianlan blew a cool breeze, was trying to sort out his thoughts, suddenly remembered the jade card he took today, and he didn't see it himself, so he took it out of his arms, although the jade card is only half faced, but the incision is not sharp, obviously I don't know how many years have been repeatedly mosha, exuding a warm luster, look carefully, it is different from ordinary jade pendants, there are few patterns, but densely engraved with many seal characters.
Lin Jianlan lifted the jade pendant and looked at the moonlight, only to see that it was written a poem about the separation of lovers: "The green grass is green, the water is flooding Tingzhou, ten years of companionship, August parting, Yang Hua is flying, Hu is silent, and the heart is like a stone." ”
The poems are sad and decisive, Lin Jianlan couldn't help but hold the jade pendant tightly in his hand, his heart soured and painful, sighed heavily, and put it in his arms again. But I didn't know the flower shadow behind him, a figure trembled slightly, and two lines of tears dripped from his eyes for a long time, and gently wiped them away, and he was about to retreat quietly, but when he turned around, he saw a person standing next to the door behind him, looking at himself, and said: "It's a coincidence, it turns out that both of them can't sleep." ”
Lin Jianlan looked back and saw that Lu Man was wearing a shirt, but half of her body was hidden in the flowers, as bright and moving as she was in the black shop that night, and Tang Mu was by the door behind her, both of them had a little sneering expressions, Lin Jianlan said: "Isn't Brother Tang the same?"
Tang Mu smiled meaninglessly, snapped his fingers lightly, and a little servant walked quickly, put some fruits and tea on the table, and then he walked down the steps and said: "In this case, it is better to talk at night, I know that Lin Gong has many questions about me." ”
Lin Jianlan saw him straight to the point, but he was a little surprised, and said: "Brother Tang's white dragon fish suit, mixed in the rivers and lakes, courage and courage are really admired by Zaixia, the beggars helped that day, for Brother Tang, I am afraid there are some unavoidable hardships, although I don't understand, but I also try my best to help cover up, can Brother Tang's promise that day remain unchanged?"
Tang Mu said movingly: "Naturally, Lin Gong has not changed his name to me, I am very grateful, no matter what happens in the future, I will not do anything to endanger the beggar brothers." ”
Lin Jianlan smiled bitterly and said: "It's just that you compare yourself to Wu Xu, how can you stay in the gang plainly, and the beggars all over the world help you, if you just hide and avoid suspicion, wouldn't it be too wasteful, I'm afraid you have to use it, but right?"
Tang Mu looked embarrassed, but he was stunned for a long time, and he couldn't refute it, Lin Jianlan said: "As long as you don't forget the promise you made at that time." After a pause, he said, "Brother Tang, now I want you to promise me that I will fight to the death with that crown world Moyu." ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Tang Mu was surprised, but even Lu Man's face changed, and he said hurriedly: "Brother, Guanshi Moyu is now the de facto number one of the Imperial Kou Division, when did you make a rivalry with him?"
Lin Jianlan smiled and said, "Sister Man, don't worry, I'll tell you the love in the future." Brother Tang, can you agree?"
Tang Mu was embarrassed: "He...... I still have a plea for him, and I can't ...... it now."
Lin Jianlan said: "Brother Tang is pretending to be confused, didn't you buy him and borrow his hand to get rid of Yun Mengzhi?
Lu Man exclaimed: "Yun Mengshu is dead, Jianghu doesn't know, I thought he was just powerless, but I didn't expect ......"
Tang Mu's face changed sharply, and he said with a forced smile: "Lin Gong can know this, it's really amazing." ”
Lin Jianlan said: "It's just a coincidence." If you are lucky enough to witness it with your own eyes, Sister Man should not be surprised, do you remember the corridor in the Kao Mansion?"
When it came to the corridor, Lu Man's face changed a little, and when Lin Jianlan arranged flowers for her there, she saw Wan Xiu behind the curtain, and she couldn't tell Lin Jianlan that Wan Xiu was behind the curtain, to this day.
Lin Jianlan didn't pay attention to Lu Man's face, and continued: "I went there again later, in the garden at the end of the corridor, Yun Mengzhi, the number one person of the famous Imperial Kou Division, died in the hands of Guanshi Moyu at the behest of Wu Zetian, as for the corpse, it may be buried under the peony superlative plant called 'Danfengbai', maybe not, who knows!"
Lu Man couldn't help but shiver, and covered the clothes on her body a little tighter, Lin Jianlan saw that her cherry lips trembled slightly, and it seemed to be extremely cold, so he stepped forward and put his coat on Lu Man's body, and said, "Brother Tang, do you still want to prevaricate?"
Tang Mu gritted his teeth and said: "When Lin Gong said this, I can't hide it, today he is the intimate guard of the Empress Wu, the real power figure of the Imperial Kousi, I can't easily send him to Lin Gong, he is an extremely important dark chess in my hand, and it will be of great use in the future." ”
Lin Jianlan said "oh" and said, "How can Brother Tang guarantee his loyalty?"
Tang Mudao: "You don't know, I also tried to buy Yun Mengzhi, but it didn't work, do you know why?"
Lin Jianlan shook his head, and Tang Mu smiled bitterly: "It's a bit disrespectful to say this in front of Miss Man, because Yun Mengshu has an unusual relationship with my grandmother. As a man, you can't always be ruthless to a woman who has had some relationships with you, and do anything too much. ”
Lin Jianlan knew that he couldn't directly say that Yun Mengzhi was Wu Zetian's former lover, and it was extremely difficult to say this, but Yun Mengzhi was not the kind of person who valued love and righteousness as Tang Mu said, and he knew from his attitude towards Jiao'er who had the joy of pillow seats, but he couldn't be considered unwise if he didn't agree to Tang Mu, and Sun didn't just use the man who had an unclear relationship with his grandmother, so could Tang Mu really tolerate him? Thinking of this, he only nodded slightly.
Tang Mudao: "You have also seen the two of them, even if Guanshi Moyu covers his face, his figure and momentum are not lost to Yun Mengzhi, I also thought that if he showed his true face, he didn't know how handsome, my grandmother once wanted to see his true appearance, but he refused to say a word, let alone ...... That one...... Do the things of those men in the Crane Mansion. Therefore, he didn't have the kind of fetters of Yun Mengzhi, to be honest, it wasn't that I looked for him first, but that night he assassinated the old gang leader, my words touched him, and he took the initiative to find me once afterwards, and he has been doing things for me since then. ”
Lin Jianlan frowned and thought for a while, and said: "'Please think about it, Your Excellency, he has already been in the twilight of the West Mountain, and he can survive a few spring and autumn periods, whose hands will the power fall after all?" Brother Tang's words really got to the point, and people couldn't help but be moved. ”
Tang Mudao: "I didn't expect Lin Gong to remember it so clearly, it's true, although the matter is related to the world, I don't want to ignite the war, this is the Li family's own business in the final analysis, if it can be solved smoothly, it is best that before Di Xiang's death, everything has been roughly arranged, so I can't touch him at this moment, Lin Gong must not blame." ”
Speaking of this, Lin Jianlan already had some impressions of Tang Mu's plan, but he didn't expect him to be willing to tell him, and he was silent for a long time and said: "Brother Tang is so worthy of telling such a major secret truth, there is only gratitude in the future, how can there be blame, then I will wait for the day when Brother Tang succeeds." ”
Lu Man listened to the two of them talk over and over again about things that he didn't care about, he was bored and anxious, but he heard Lin Jianlan say softly: "It's finally all done." Brother Tang, I have endured it for a long time, no matter how I guess or how sad I feel, it is better to ask in person. ”
Lu Man's heart was like a thousand drums ringing in unison, and he only said to himself: "He was going to ask, he finally asked, and he still asked." ”
In a louder and louder heartbeat, Lin Jianlan was finally heard: "Why did Ah Xiu become your princess?"
