Chapter 8 (II) Into the Tiger's Den and Seek Perfection
What kind of face is this? Is it ugly or beautiful, is there a scar that no one wants to see? Or is it deliberately trying to hide his beauty? Lu Ya's heart was beating fast, and he seemed to be able to hear the sound of plopping in the quiet night, he couldn't help but use his hand to pull the layer of light veil, his hand was getting closer and closer, the closer it was, the lighter it became, he was a little excited, and the hand trembled slightly unconsciously, and at this moment, Yin Lan suddenly whispered: "What are you doing?"
Lu Ya was startled and said, "No...... Didn't do anything. ”
Yin Lan sat up lazily and said, "You want to peek at me, right?"
Lu Ya was quite embarrassed and said, "I'm just curious and want to ...... Think...... If I see you again in the future, I don't know if I can recognize you. ”
Yin Lan didn't get angry at his rudeness, but smiled: "You'd better not look at it, I'm ugly and have no nose." ”
Lu Ya shook his head and said, "I don't believe it." ”
Yin Lan said: "If I really don't have a nose, do you want to see it too?"
Lu Ya said: "I want to see, even if you have no nose, no chin, no teeth, and the lower half of your face is all rotten, I also want to see, at least let me know what you look like." ”
Yin Lan said angrily: "you, I'm so miserable." ”
Lu Ya said: "We are also friends who have been born and died, if we don't know what you look like when we are separated tomorrow, won't we regret it for life?"
Yin Lan said in a low voice: "My cousin said that I was not allowed to show others when I went out, and besides, if we separated, we don't know if we can see each other again, what regrets do we have not to regret?"
Lu Ya said: "I want to remember what you look like." The tone was very firm.
Yin Lan pondered for a while and said, "There is a chance, it's so dark now, you can't remember it if you show it." ”
Lu Ya let out a "hmm", and he didn't know what to say.
The two were silent for a long time, and Yin Lan said, "Brother Lu, you can sleep too." ”
When Lu Ya heard her call herself Brother Lu, she felt her heart warm, and her naughty energy came again, and said, "Sister Yin, why don't you sleep?"
Yin Lan said: "It's all you, I don't want to sleep now, in case you come to steal my veil again." ”
Lu Ya said: "Absolutely not, you can sleep with confidence." ”
Yin Lan said: "I said I don't want to sleep anymore, but I'm not sleepy now." Talk to me. Without waiting for Lu Ya to answer, he continued to ask, "Are you really called Lu Buping?"
Lu Ya said: "I don't call this name, my surname is Lu, but it's not called 'Buping', my real name ...... I'll tell you when I see what you look like. ”
Yin Lan pursed her mouth (Lu Ya naturally couldn't see it), and said, "Isn't it rare? If you don't tell me, I won't show you." So what do I call you?"
Lu Ya said: "Just call Brother Lu." ”
Yin Lan scolded: "If you want to be beautiful, I called it, and now I regret it, if you follow me in the future, I will call you a little, anyway, you are my maid." ”
Lu Ya smiled: "Okay, whatever you like to call it, anyway, it's just a little for this day." Thinking that Xiang Nan wanted to pretend to be a maid back then, he was unwilling to do anything, but now Yin Lan calls herself a little, but she is inexplicably happy in her heart, what is the reason for this?
Yin Lan saw Lu Ya thoughtful, so she asked, "What do you want?"
Lu Ya said: "There used to be a girl who also asked me to pretend to be her maid, I don't know how she is now." ”
Yin Lan pointed to Lu Ya's nose and said, "Oh, it turns out that you have already pretended to be a maid, no wonder you can think of this ghost idea, who is that girl?" Although she asked casually, she didn't know why there was a trace of sourness in her heart.
Lu Ya said: "It's not me, it's the same as you." I only know that she is the daughter of the Mongol general Boyan, and her name is Xiangnan. ”
Yin Lan said: "Mongolians, if Mongolian and Han intermarriage is not good, Han people will be discriminated against. She deliberately said that the Mongolian and Han marriages were intermarried to test whether Lu Ya was good with the Mongolian girl.
Lu Ya said: "Who is going to intermarry, she was only eight or nine years old when I met her." Besides, it's been ten years, and there's no news. ”
When Yin Lan heard this, she was overjoyed, but she didn't show it, and said, "So you miss her now?"
Lu Ya said: "What's the matter, I only remembered it when I met you, otherwise I would have forgotten about it." ”
Yin Lan asked, "What are you pretending to be her maid for?"
Lu Ya told how he met Xiang Nan back then, and naturally hid his life experience. When talking about hiding naked in the wheat pile, Yin Lan couldn't stop laughing, and said that when her parents were dead and alone, Yin Lan felt sorry for him again, Lu Ya spoke vividly, Yin Lan listened carefully, it seemed that Lu Ya's joy was her joy, and Lu Ya's sadness became her sadness.
Yin Lan said softly: "It turns out that you are also an orphan without a father and a mother. ”
Lu Ya said: "Why do you say that? Are you also an orphan?"
Yin Lan sighed, Lu Ya couldn't see her eyes clearly in the dark night, but she also knew that Lu Dao must be very poignant eyes, so she only heard Yin Lan say faintly: " I'm not an orphan, when Jiangnan suffered, my parents were both killed, and then I met my father-in-law, he took me to a nun temple to foster care, and he led the troops to fight, and I don't know how to go after a few years, there has been no news of my father-in-law, those days I learned to do some female red with the old nun, do some chores, and occasionally read, when I was eight years old, I wanted to estimate that I was a nun in my life, and the ancient Buddha of the green lantern was accompanied all day long, and I had this life. In the next year, my father-in-law was defeated, came here to pick me up, and found a teacher for me to learn all kinds of miscellaneous studies. It stands to reason that my father-in-law treats me like a mountain, but I always feel that he is too ......."
Lu Ya asked, "What's the matter?"
Yin Lan sighed again and said, "It's too ...... It's too domineering, I don't know if it's right for me to say this about my father-in-law, but there are many things I can't go against his will, and it's been better over the years, but I still can't make my own decisions about major things. ”
Lu Ya asked, "What big things you can't call the shots?"
Yin Lan looked at him resentfully (naturally Lu Ya couldn't see her resentful eyes clearly), and said, "It's nothing." Originally, I was supposed to stay at home, but this time my cousin secretly took me out, and my father-in-law didn't know what to say, and said that he would hire a car to go back after watching the lantern festival tonight, but he didn't think about it...... Well, I'm going to be punished by my father-in-law when I go back. ”
Lu Ya asked, "What kind of punishment is there?"
Yin Lan said: "That's not going to happen, but it will be punished for kneeling, and it hurts for a long time." ”
Lu Ya joked and said, "The girls' tutors should be very strict, or you don't go back, follow me in the future." ”
Yin Lan's heart really moved, and she actually thought, why don't I go back, but after thinking about it again, she immediately dispelled the idea just now, and said, "What do you say? Why should I follow you? Besides, my father-in-law treats me like a mountain, and I can't leave him alone." Even if I was punished, I confessed. ”
Lu Ya said: "You only think about the punishment of your father-in-law, but you forget my kindness, I can be regarded as saving you, how can you repay me?"
Yin Lan snorted and said, "When did you save me? Now I am the one who saves you, okay?"
Lu Ya just smiled, thinking to himself that if you really follow me, I would give up my life to protect you, but how can I be virtuous, how can you follow me?
Yin Lan suddenly stopped talking, she felt that although Lu Ya was not deeply involved in the world, he spoke in a somewhat oily tone, and he came to lift his veil again, he didn't seem to be a decent gentleman, but what annoyed him was that he was not only annoying, but a little happy.
Lu Ya was with Xin Buping ten years ago, Xin Buping can't compare to Lu Xiufu, his heart is full of hatred, he won't teach Lu Ya Confucianism such as benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom, and faith, what he taught Lu Ya are all strange things in the rivers and lakes, martial arts tricks, military books and war strategies, and Lu Ya himself doesn't like to read Confucian books, so he doesn't seem to understand these etiquette, he only knows Lu Dao and Yin Lan in his heart, and there are no distracting thoughts in his heart.
Seeing that Yin Lan stopped talking, Lu Ya asked, "Who is your father-in-law?"
Yin Lan deliberately pretended to be angry and said, "I don't want to tell you." ”
Lu Ya said: "Forget it, I don't want to repay it, just repay you for saving me, I will tell you my real name, my name is Lu Ya." ”
Yin Lan said: "Is your name so expensive? ”
Lu Ya was confused for a while, and he didn't know why Yin Lan suddenly became angry. He is not deeply involved in the world, how can he understand the mind of a girl, even if he is an old man, how many people can understand the heart of a woman? Therefore, he had no choice but not to speak.
Yin Lan waited for a long time, and when she saw that he didn't make a sound, she became strange: "Why don't you speak?"
Lu Ya said: "I don't know if the name Lu Dao is Jin Gui, but you promise me not to tell others, especially Jiang Hu." Although he said this, he was not worried about Jiang Hu, but about another person. If Jiang Hu is really Jiang Cheng's son, if Lu Xiufu is still in the world, if these two are related, then how can I, Lu Ya, face the father who killed his mother with his own hands?
This time he said very solemnly, unlike the tone just now, Yin Lan also asked solemnly: "Why can't you tell Jiang Hu?"
Lu Ya said: "Don't ask, okay? You just need to promise me." ”
Yin Lan said "um", nodded, and said, "My father's surname is Zhang, and his name is Zhang Shijie." ”
Yin Lan said very lightly, even if Lu Ya had thought of this section before, it still sounded like a lightning strike at this moment, the tiger's body trembled, and he stood up, startling Yin Lan.
Lu Ya thought quickly in his mind, Yin Lan's father-in-law was Zhang Shijie, if Jiang Hu was really Jiang Cheng's son, then Xiao Yutian could it be the little emperor Zhao Yu? That's why Jiang Hu was so respectful to him. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt enlightened.
"Then where is your stepfather now?" Lu Ya sat down again and asked.
Yin Lan said: "My father-in-law is now in Xuanyuan Village outside Suzhou City, and he is the housekeeper there. ”
Lu Ya said: "Then the owner of the village is your cousin?"
Yin Lan said: "My cousin doesn't live there, Xiao Yutian is actually not my cousin, it's just that my father-in-law asked me to call it that, and he doesn't come often." The owner of Xuanyuan Village is surnamed Yang. ”
Lu Ya said to himself: "Master Yangzhuang." ”
Yin Lan said: "Actually, we only came last month, the people in the village are mysterious, the owner is rarely here, he has too much business, he is the richest man in Suzhou, so Xuanyuan Zhuang is very famous in Suzhou." ”
Lu Ya thought, yes, since Zhang Shijie came to Suzhou, there must be something important, how can he show people his original identity? I am afraid that this surname Yang is just a decoration to hide people's eyes, or arrange the eyeliner in Suzhou, it doesn't matter who is the owner of the village, because the person who is talking about it is not him, but Zhang Shijie or Xiao Yutian. Maybe I'm not right? This Zhang Shijie has the same name as the original Song Dynasty Taifu? No, then Jiang Hu is very similar to Jiang Zheng, where can there be such a coincidence in the world?
Yin Lan saw that Lu Ya was thinking about things again, so she said, "You are so strange, what do you always think?"
Lu Ya looked out the window and said, "Look, it's almost dawn, I'm thinking about how I can go out with you later." ”
Yin Lan also looked out the window and said, "Where is the dawn?" ”
Lu Ya said: "It's almost, let's go now, and it won't be easy to get out of the city when it's dawn." ”
Lu Ya put the clothes he had changed into, and then went out of the Li Jiawen Pavilion with Yin Lan, the two officers and soldiers guarding the door were still napping, and the two came to the south of the city lightly, the city gate had just opened, and the morning sun in the east had not yet appeared, but the sky had been dyed red. Yin Lan tightened her cloak, feeling a little cold, recalling the all-night conversation with the young man leading the horse in front of her last night, and felt warm in her heart, she didn't know how long it had been since she had said so many things to others.
At this time, he saw Lu Ya leading the horse in front and suddenly stopped leaving.
Yin Lan asked, "Why don't you leave?"
Lu Ya turned his back to her and said, "When I get to the Guandi Temple, I will be separated from you, I want to go back to the master, I don't know if Lu Dao can meet you again in this life." But I haven't seen you yet. ”
Yin Lan felt a sour feeling when she heard this, if she separated like this, she couldn't come out easily, I am afraid that I really can't see him again in this life, I suddenly felt a little reluctant, and then I thought that from the day I was adopted by my father-in-law, my fate has already been doomed, why not fulfill the wish of the person in front of me before separation?
Yin Lan gently took off the veil, then smiled at Lu Ya and said in a low voice, "You turn around." The voice was weak, but the tone was unusually firm.
Lu Ya turned around, but saw a face as beautiful as a fairy, a delicate nose, smiling lips, and star-like twinkling eyes, at this moment the sun showed a thin edge, and under the background of the morning sun, a slender woman riding a tall horse, standing in the morning light, he was like drunk, his eyes looked at her eyes like this, and he didn't want to move.
Yin Lan felt shy and said, "Okay, have you seen enough?" said and put the veil back on.
Lu Ya still looked at her eyes, and said stupidly: "How can you see enough? I can't see enough in this life." ”
Girls like others to praise themselves for being beautiful, and Yin Lan is no exception, especially Lu Ya's stupid appearance, which makes her feel even more happy, but she pretended to be casual and said: "My father-in-law and cousin don't want me to show it to others, you know it." Now that you see me, even if we don't see each other again in the future, remember what I looked like. ”
Lu Ya still looked at her blankly and said, "I can't forget it in my life." ”
Only a few words, but said very sincerely, Yin Lan couldn't help but be a little moved, but after thinking about it, what if you don't forget? You and I are just friends in Pingshui, destined to have no fate, in this life, the two of us are just passers-by, even if you have more affection for me at this moment, it is in vain.
Thinking of this, Yin Lan took her heart back and said to Lu Ya: "Let's see if I can get out." ”
It was getting lighter again, and some businessmen were walking around the city gates. Lu Ya kept his head down, leading the horse, Yin Lan sat high on the horse, just mixed in the crowd, and was about to go out of the city, when suddenly someone behind him shouted: "Don't go away with those two little ladies." ”
Lu Ya and Yin Lan broke out in a cold sweat at the same time.
