Chapter 5: The Secret of the Land Mansion
"What should I do?" Lu Yuqing wanted to rush over to his father immediately, but he couldn't move now.
She must not lose her two loved ones.
Her mother, who died when she was two years old.
She was raised by her father and her older brother from the same mother's mother.
Although her father later continued to play, she was very sad. But her father's kindness to her, she knew. After all, after so many years, there has never been an extra third young master or third lady in the Lu Mansion, only the elder brother shares his father's favor with him.
So she didn't blame her brother for locking her up, she also knew her brother's good intentions, but she was indeed a little dissatisfied with her brother's treatment of Jiang Yuebai by his appearance.
Jiang Yuebai...... She was thinking about Jiang Yuebai again now.
She had seen Jiang Yuebai make a move and knew that he was strong in martial arts. But her brother did not know it, and took him for a beggar.
She knew how terrible the bloody killing was, but she felt that Jiang Yuebai would definitely be able to deal with them.
So when Jiang Yuebai left, her heart began to mess up.
She suddenly began to hate herself.
Hate yourself for being so cowardly.
Hate myself for not being able to help anything.
Hate yourself for being in danger, you can only huddle in this dark room, and you can't do anything.
Will he come back?" Lu Yuqing couldn't help but wonder.
"Qing'er, are you in there?"
The familiar voice made her excited, and the excitement was mixed with the self-reproach for doubting her.
"Ahem...... "Although she can't speak, coughing twice is not a problem.......
I only heard a "bang", and the pear wood window in Lu Yuqing's room was shattered, and a figure swept in.
Jiang Yuebai walked to her bed and unlocked the acupoint.
"Thank you, Gongzi Jiang......" she replied in a weak voice.
Her health was already not good, and the long-term stiff joints had already consumed most of her strength.
"You're welcome. ”
He replied simply.
"I don't know...... How did Jiang Gongzi know that I was here?"
Jiang Yuebai didn't tell her that she secretly went to the main hall after she came out of the kitchen, and after finding out that she was not there, she went to every room to look for her, and I don't know how many rooms she found before she could find her whereabouts. He just casually said, "I happened to be passing through here. ”
"Oh, then tonight's battle, I hope that Jiang Gongzi will help you......"
"Do your best. Jiang Yuebai promised her.
"So, now ......"
"Now we're going to wait. Jiang Yuebai changed her usual lazy and lazy posture and said word by word.
It's not the first time he's been so serious.
In the inn just now, he also had.
He has always been like this, quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit.
As fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as sweeping as fire, as quiet as a mountain.
This is the principle of soldiers marching and fighting, but it is also the mystery of martial arts.
Everything and everything, reaching the peak state, are all the same.
Although Lu Yuqing doesn't practice martial arts, she still knows a little bit about this.
It is this point that makes Lu Yuqing admire Jiang Yuebai the most.
"I don't know what your dad has with them. He looked out of the broken window, and the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was all over the building. "I don't even know who the other party is. To attack rashly is to expose yourself to their sight, which is very stupid. ”
"So...... There are only two possibilities. He looked at Lu Yuqing meaningfully, "Or...... Your dad already knows how many of them there are and what their characters are, and he has ambushed a group of people and deliberately lured them in. In that case, it means that your father and them have had a grudge and dispute a long time ago. ”
Lu Yuqing couldn't believe her ears.
"There is another kind...... "There was something wrong with her face.
"Or...... It's just that someone is colluding with foreign enemies and is ready to turn against your father. "Because I have never met a million-million-rich man who lives in luxury, and the servants of the house know nothing about the business." ”
Time froze again, as if it was still in the inn. Jiang Yuebai was also still analyzing the psychology of those five people.
Lu Yuqing was still in tears.
"How...... How could this be?" her heart burst suddenly.
"I didn't know that, but I did go to the kitchen just now and met your cook. You said that your chef is no worse than that of Kuiyuankan, so as soon as I arrived in the kitchen just now, I started watching him cook. He was preparing a Buddha jumping over the wall, and that's when I saw the clues. The Huadiao wine in the Buddha jumping over the wall must be added before the hot air runs out of the cup, otherwise it will just be a pot of stew, not a Buddha jumping over the wall. He said slowly, so that Lu Yuqing could hear clearly, "And he waited until after the pot was raised, and then put the Huadiao wine, and he kept bragging about his craftsmanship to me......"
Lu Yuqing still listened quietly, although her face was expressionless, her heart was full of turmoil.
"Your family is all new, aren't they?" he asked after a long time. He knew she needed to be quiet now, but they were running out of time.
"Well, the city has not been peaceful lately, and many servants have left, so some ...... have been recruited temporarily" Although she was in a state of mind, she spoke clearly and clearly.
"Who is responsible for recruiting ......"
"This ......," she hesitated, but finally said, "it's big brother." ”
