Ning Gu

Chapter 105

It was supposed to be a clear autumn day, but it was disturbed by the sudden dark clouds.The bright sky gradually darkened because of the clouds.

Xie Wuling followed Huixuan's gaze and allowed the boy to enter the pavilion.

The little boy bent down, handed over a book of invitations, and said respectfully: "Mr. Liang, this is an invitation from the Liang family. I invite you to go to Echi tomorrow."

"Goose Pond?" Xie Wuling raised his eyebrows, suddenly turned around and looked outside the pavilion, then raised his hand and pointed to the pool of water behind the rest pavilion, "I saw what was missing in the autumn water of this pool yesterday, and I only know what is missing today "It's gone," looked at the boy again, and instructed, "Here, throw it into the water."

"This..." The little boy quietly glanced at Hui Xuan for help, seeing that Hui Xuan didn't raise his eyes, he just looked back, "Would you like to take a look? The boy from the Liang Manor said, It is said that if you don't read the invitation post, it is difficult for him to reply to the master of the family. The masters of the Liang family are not easy to talk to."

Xie Wuling chuckled when he heard the words, always felt that he was not a good talker.He withdrew his hand, sat upright, asked Huixuan for a second cup of tea, narrowed his peach blossom eyes, raised his chin, and did not make another sound.

"Just do it." Huixuan glanced at Xie Wuling's attitude, and said, "If it's not easy to reply, just say that Mr. Xiao is busy with work, and the poor monk will make decisions for Mr. Xiao, so we won't go tomorrow."

"Yes." The little boy responded from Li Ting and replied, Hui Xuan then looked at Xie Wuling seriously, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you really not going? Liang Ce is an old fox, not easy to mess with."

"What is the boundary of Goose Pond? Fufeng's literati and poets are there, and he invites me there, so he has no good intentions." Xie Wuling took the cup of tea on the table, "He wants me to seek food with him, an old fox. , it’s better to give up early.”

"Oh, you, still..." Huixuan sighed, and said in words, "You look so clever."

"Senior Brother, if he is still here, he will look like me." Xie Wuling replied mockingly.

Huixuan put down the teacup suddenly when he heard the words, looked at the person in front of him with light in his eyes, and said, "Are you tired?"

"Tired. I can't sleep well every day." Xie Wuling rested his elbows on his forehead, telling the truth.

Hui Xuanquan made it true: "Can't sleep well? Are you afraid?"

"Scared." Xie Wuling pursed his lips.Ask yourself, in fact, he is so afraid that Zhao Zuo will not believe him in the future, he is afraid that he will not be able to protect him like Shen Changyu in the future, he is afraid that Zhao Zuo will not accept his final choice, he is afraid too much, the most fear is time Not long enough, if he can grow old with Zhao Zuo and see Xian Zhi's stability, he will probably live up to Zhao Xing.

"I was also afraid at that time." Hui Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the sky that should have been sunny in autumn.

There should be some time to sit and watch the clouds rise, and the autumn geese lined up on the clouds, but now it looks like black clouds pressing down on the formation, and the wind and rain destroying the city.The cold wind blew straight towards Huixuan's heart.

"I'm most afraid, I can't help myself."

When Xie Wuling heard this sentence at the time, he only had a little bit of empathy; it was not until a few days later, when Zhaoxing's bad news about Miaofa came, that he understood what the words "involuntary" meant.

Goose Pond belongs to the outskirts of Fufeng, a swamp at the foot of Nanshan Mountain.Blue stones are paved along the stream, spreading for one or two miles, and two pavilions are built on the side of the mountain, and there is a thatched cottage not far behind the pavilion.The thatched cottage used to be the former residence of a hermit. The hermit loved calligraphy. He scooped up water from a mountain stream to wash his pens every day. Later, he named the mountain stream as the Equ Pond. Over time, it was also called arty. The scribes continued to use it.

In spring, when flowers are all over the banks of the mountain stream, there must be a Goose Pond meeting. Therefore, there are always exchanges of scholars here, and even in severe winter, there are one or two elegant guests who love snow.

The Goose Pond in autumn lacks the surprise of blooming flowers in spring, and the solitude of white snow in winter. Instead, there are more red leaves in the middle of the mountain than in these two seasons.

Xie Wuling wore an autumn shirt, held up a moon-white oiled paper umbrella, and stood outside the resting pavilion. He hadn't entered the pavilion for a long time, as if he was waiting for someone. Inside the pavilion, Jiumu and Na were supposed to go back with Huixuan. Little Shami.

The rain hit the eaves of the pavilion, and the rainwater slid down along the green eaves like broken jade beads, falling one by one on the stone steps, and then splashed low, wetting the hem of Xie Wuling's green shirt.

The rain has been going on for several days. It hasn't stopped since the night when Huixuan stayed in the garden. It wasn't until the night when Zhao Zuo accompanied Huixuan back to Zhaoxing with Xie Wuling's instructions, the rain was a little lighter. .

Xie Wuling had been standing under the pavilion for some time before he saw a Jinxiu chariot that came over there belatedly.Xie Wuling doesn't like this kind of flashy decorations, but he can't care that the Fufeng nobles love this gorgeous and extravagant atmosphere.

Xie Wuling saw the man get off the carriage, so a family boy followed him and held up an umbrella.

The man stood still, and said to Xie Wuling who was standing outside the pavilion: "Mr.

"Lord Liang," Xie Wuling lowered his eyebrows and nodded, bowing symbolically, "You're here."

"I'm also entangled in mundane affairs, and I really can't get away from it." Liang Ce stepped forward and said.

"Then Pingzhi would like to thank Mr. Liang for his kindness today, please."

Xie Wuling turned sideways to make way, Liang Ce put on airs and said: "I don't know why the young gentleman is looking for someone Liang today? Someone Liang remembers that two days ago, it was the people from Juheng Garden who used Master Huixuan to prevaricate my little boy. "

"That day, I really made the decision for my senior brother, it was Pingzhi's rudeness." Xie Wuling entered the pavilion and handed over the oil-paper umbrella to Jiumu, and then bowed in apology, "As for today, it is naturally for the invitation of my lord that day."

"Oh," Liang Ce acted like he had suddenly realized, but then he laughed, "When you get old, you forget it after a long time."

"Forgot?" Xie Wuling raised his eyebrows, sat down unhurriedly, and said softly, "Then Master Liang, drink a cup of Zhaoxing's tea and think slowly?"

Liang Ce took the small celadon cup carefully handed over by the young novice, took a sip of tea, and frowned: "Xiao Mister, this is not Zhao Xing's birthday eyebrow."

"Shou Mei is not suitable for today, and Cuiluo is the best." Xie Wuling gave Liang Ce a half-smile look, "Master Liang should know that today is a good day. I learned a trick from ancient books that day. , how to make life feel like death. It should be much more painful than my elder sister. These days, I am planning to find someone to try."

Xie Wuling's tone was full of sternness, ever since the news of Da Na Zhaoxing came, his heart seemed to be born in one place with Miaofa.It is said that what Zhao Xing has given him, apart from being scheming, is that kind of compassion.Most of the rest of the romantic hobbies were entrusted by the Miaofa, which gave birth to Zhao Xingxie Pingzhi whom Zhao Zuo had seen in the Fatan Pavilion.

Liang Ce put the teacup back on the table, he had heard about Xie Wuling's rules of green snail tea, but he still replied without changing his face: "You are joking, Mr. Xiao."

"Yeah, it made Mr. Liang smile." Xie Wuling paused, and then added, "This method will never be used on Mr. Zhao, but the person who appears in Zhaoxing will never escape."

"Mr. Liang doesn't understand Mr. Xiao." Liang Ce said.

"Your Excellency, you really don't understand?" Xie Wuling leaned forward, and asked in a low voice, "Or is it that Your Excellency forgot to send the person to Zhaoxing Mountain?"

"Mr. Jing Xiao made this point, but I understand it a little bit. Mr. Liang came to tell the time. It seems that besides the name Miaofa, he has heard of another person." Liang Ce regained the upper hand, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows. , he continued, "Then Minger's name is Suizhu, and she is a young lady with hair and cultivation in a Taoist temple. Suizhu, it's a good name. This and Shibi Suihouzhu are both rare treasures in the world. I don't know the magic method What does it mean that the real person gave her little maid this name?"

Xie Wuling casually said: "It's just a maidservant next to a real person, if it really has any meaning, why don't you just see what Master Liang said?"

"Sir, what do you think I should say?"

As Liang Ce asked, he looked at Xie Wuling. Xie Wuling didn't avoid that gaze, and went up to him without hesitation, exploring the past like a frosty wind.

"What exactly does Lord Liang want?" Xie Wuling pushed aside the teacup in his hand, pressed the table with one hand, and said seriously.

Liang Ce didn't move his eyes, and his tone was so flat that he said that what he took back was originally his own accessory: "Shanlu Camp."

"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to eat this one bite?" Xie Wuling tapped his fingers on the table.

"That won't bother Mr. Xiao." Liang Ce withdrew his gaze, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

"But Mr. Liang is here to help you..." Xie Wuling paused and changed his words, "Mr. Liang should also know that the half of the mountain antlers are not with me and Qin Guogong, let alone the entire mountain deer camp."

"Then this is what Mr. Xiao should think about. Since this is the case, Mr. Liang thinks that Mr. Xiao should think about it first. Does Mrs. Suizhu know the secret you left with Master Miaofa?"

Xie Wuling glanced at Liang Ce suddenly, seeing the cunning in Liang Ce's eyes clearly.He swallowed his saliva, suppressing the anger welling up in his heart.

Liang Ce turned a blind eye and threatened: "Someone Liang actually wants to know whether this mountain deer camp is more important or the lady Suizhu is more important? Or maybe Mr. Xiao has something more important and wants to share it with someone Liang?"

Xie Wuling was silent for a while when he heard the words, the other hand hidden under the sleeve clenched into a fist, clenched and then relaxed, relaxed and clenched again, until Liang Ce's patience was almost gone, the corner of his mouth suddenly curled into a smile , Peach Blossom eyes slightly narrowed, making these eyes look even more radiant, he raised his brows, and said leisurely: "More importantly, there is one more, but I don't know if Mr. Liang wants to hear it?"

Now it was Liang Ce's turn to beat his heart, he said softly, "Mr. Xiao, don't play tricks."

"Suizhu's life is still in the hands of the adults, and the adults think I will play tricks?" Xie Wuling moved closer, signaling Liang Ce to move closer, but looked around, "However, Lord Liang wants to hear more about it. How about letting all the hidden guards outside the pavilion withdraw first?"

Liang Ce raised his hand and made a gesture according to his words. Xie Wuling couldn't feel that he had no martial arts foundation. He made eye contact with Jiumu beside him calmly, and after confirming, he lowered his head and said:

"I have always been close to Princess Qi, Lord Liang knows about it, she always asked me to send a letter to General Shen Cheng."

"You mean Princess Qi and Lu Shencheng..." Liang Ce frowned, as if afraid of being caught, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

"I mean, now, my lord, think about it, is it more important to be a Suizhu lady, or a princess of Qi Kingdom?"

"So there is a reason why Lu Shencheng stayed in Fufeng and never returned to the north."

"It's for the gift of marriage." Xie Wuling said expressionlessly, and gradually turned his gaze to the outside of the pavilion.

The rain outside the pavilion fell on the pebbles, and then slowly flowed to the mountain stream along the gaps between the stones. In Xie Wuling's heart, it seemed that there was something, and it flowed away along with the rainwater flowing to the mountain stream.

"The Holy Majesty will not agree." Liang Ce asserted

Xie Wuling withdrew his gaze, and there was still a warm smile on the corner of his mouth: "Your Excellency, come with me. Your Majesty will not disagree. As long as you hurry before Qin Guogong comes to stop you."

The bamboo curtain was blown by the wind, and then fell and hit the window lattice, making a clanging sound.

"After Mr. Xie Xiao met Liang that day, he went to find Princess Qi the next day." Lu Weiming was still leaning on the same place, chatting with Lu Qi.

"So what does it have to do with me?" Lu Qi asked with his hands tightly holding the pages of the book, but he still pretended to be nonchalant.

"Lu Qi, haven't you ever wondered why the emperor gave you the surname Lu and named you the character Qi?"
