Uncertain Chang'an

Chapter 38

The second day was Xiumu, and Song Zhiyan was too busy these days, so he invited a few adults to relax in Lanyue Tower together.Although Da Jin did not approve of officials going in and out of these occasions, most officials knew to keep a low profile and did not cause any trouble. If no bad news reached Emperor Taiping's ears, he would just turn a blind eye and close one eye, regardless of them. up.

"Master Song, you haven't come for quite a while. Chongjin thought you had forgotten about my slave." Behind him was a woman dressed in light gauze, with charming eyes and soft, slender hands. She stood behind Song Zhiyan and pressed him Looking at his stiff shoulders, he said angrily.

"Hey, don't mention it. Ever since Wu Yi's case, there hasn't been a day of peace. Who knows why so many cases suddenly appeared. I'm taking a break from my busy schedule. I'm here to catch my breath." Song Zhiyan patted his back The soft catkin of the person sighed.As the saying goes, wives are worse than concubines and concubines are worse than stealing. No matter how many concubines there are in the family, they are a bit worse than outsiders.

"Yo, that's Chongjin's fault for you." The beauty behind her giggled, put her arms around his neck, turned around and sat in his arms, brought the glass of wine on the table to his lips, her warm breath brushed over her ears from time to time, It made people itch: "Then punish the servants to take good care of you tonight..."

Song Zhiyan's eyes were straightened by her hook, he obediently drank the wine in the glass, put his arms around the beauty and groped around restlessly, unexpectedly, someone was secretly watching.

When Song Zhiyan woke up again, the sun was already high.When he opened his eyes, he saw the glare of the sun outside, and he suddenly felt bad. It's not right to sleep in a brothel like this until this time. He hurriedly wanted to get up, and Chongjin was still lying in his arms. Song Zhiyan pushed her, saying : "Chongjin, it's time to wake up."

But the person in the arms didn't respond at all, Song Zhiyan was a little puzzled, Chongjin usually wakes up as soon as he yells, why is he like this today, could it be that he was tired last night?Song Zhiyan thought about last night, it seemed a bit past... He only remembered drinking in the first half of the night, but he couldn't remember what happened when he went to bed later, he probably drank too much.

"Chongjin, wake up."

But no matter how much he shouted, the person in his arms didn't respond.Song Zhiyan was a little flustered, and suddenly felt that her body was cold... He tremblingly stretched out his fingers to check her breath, but there was no breath...

Song Zhiyan yelled, rolled and rolled off the bed, and fell to the floor in shock and fear.The people outside the door rushed in when they heard the shout, and the supervisor saw that he fell to the ground without a trace, turned around to block the people behind him, and said, "My lord Song, what's wrong with you, but Miss Chongjin made you unhappy gone?"

Seeing someone coming in again, Song Zhiyan was in a mess, hurriedly picked up the clothes on the side and put them on, shouting: "Get out!"

"Oh, yes, you guys go down now." The steward hurriedly drove the people out, closed the door with a smile on his face, and said from outside the door: "Master Song, the little ones are waiting outside, just give orders." !"

Song Zhiyan didn't have the heart to tell him at this moment, put on his clothes indiscriminately, went to the table and poured himself a cup of cold tea and drank it down.

It's over, one life is gone, even if he has a hundred mouths, he can't tell!What's more, he is the minister of the Ministry of punishment and the official of the imperial court. His Majesty will be furious if he has something to do with the death of xx. At that time, it will not only be a matter of future, but also his wealth and life will be lost...

"It's over, it's over..." Song Zhiyan sat slumped on the chair, feeling that his life would come to an end today...

"I told you to come here! I told you not to go home!" After thinking about it, Song Zhiyan slapped himself backhandedly, with snot and tears.

Hearing the commotion inside, the steward hurriedly opened the door and came in, asking: "Oh, Mr. Song, what's the matter with you?" As he said that, he was about to go to the bed, and he said: "Miss Chongjin, what happened today? I'm sorry. ?”

"do not!"

"what?"

Song Zhiyan subconsciously wanted to hold him back, but it's a pity that the person in charge would give him a chance, and he dodged without showing any traces. He ran to the bedside and stretched out his hand to push the person lying on the bed, and said, "Isn't Miss Chongjin sick? gone?"

The moment he reached the bedside, Song Zhiyan's heart died, he slumped on the ground, and murmured, "She's dead..."

"Ah?" The manager put on a look of surprise, and went to investigate. Sure enough, the woman on the bed was already cold and her face was pale.

"This, this, this..." The manager was dumbfounded, slumped on the ground, and cried, "Oh! My life is miserable, Chongjin! How did such a good person become like this! Master Song! What's going on here! How do you say I should explain it!"

Song Zhiyan was already upset, but he was even more at a loss when he heard the crying.The steward cried for a while, saw that it was almost done, wiped away his tears, got up in a grunt and came to him, choked up and said: "My lord, you are so small that you know it all, it's all because of the poor girl Chongjin, there is no blessing Please rest assured, you and my master are officials in the same dynasty, and the master has instructed to take care of you, and I will take care of you! You can go home without worry! Someone has come to redeem Miss Chongjin, She's married, and it's not my business to ask where she's going to marry." He helped Song Zhiyan up, straightened his clothes, and said, "Your Excellency, please go back home without worry, nothing happened last night."

"Come here, send a sedan chair to take Lord Song back home!"

As he spoke, a servant came to help him. Song Zhiyan was still dazed. One second he thought he was dying, but the next second he turned the corner. He walked out with the support of two young servants, and suddenly realized when he reached the door, he hurriedly turned around and asked Ma San'er: "Which adult is your master?"

"Return to my lord, it's your prime minister."

Song Zhiyan was stunned again when he heard the words. He never expected that the Prime Minister Lu Junde was behind the Lanyue Tower.Thinking about the fact that although he and Lu Junde have no deep friendship, the relationship on the surface is not bad, and remembering what Ma San'er said just now that his master asked him to take care of him, he felt grateful to the Prime Minister for a moment, and said seriously: "Please tell the Prime Minister, help The kindness is unforgettable, and I will definitely come to thank you in person someday!"

"Okay, I must tell you, my lord, go back home quickly, remember, nothing happened here."

Song Zhiyan hurriedly nodded in agreement, and someone helped him downstairs.Ma San'er watched him go away, his hanging eyes flashed, and he ordered: "It's been cleaned up."

"Here."

The young man at the door responded, hurriedly came in and wrapped the corpse on the bed with a quilt and carried it out, and the other people came in and cleaned up the house quickly, and they were familiar with the road.

The prime minister's mansion got the report soon, and the steward got the news, and immediately went to the study to look for Lu Junde: "Master, it's done."

In the study room, Lu Junde was sitting on the teacher's chair, flipping through the book, without lifting his eyelids, he hummed, and behind him hung the four words written by Emperor Taiping himself: Loyalty to the King and Love to the Country.

In the backyard of the Lu Mansion, Lu Weizhen was reading a book on the swing in his small courtyard. The sun shone through the leaves and dappled on her body, driving away the chill from the cold wind.As the saying goes, one leaf of the phoenix tree brings autumn to the world. In late autumn, most of the trees have already lost their leaves, and only a few evergreen trees can provide some shade, so that she can read the book so peacefully without hurting her eyes.It was supposed to be an ordinary and comfortable day, but Xiao Ping, who had gone to the kitchen to get pastries, came back in a hurry, panting: "Miss, no, I just saw Tong'er's family come to look for Tong'er, saying that this I haven't returned home for a month!"

"Huh? Didn't you tell me she went home a few days ago?" Lu Weizhen put down his book, looked up at her, and felt something was wrong.

"Yes, Mama Liu told me that she asked for leave to go home. I wondered at the time that she didn't tell me, but her family said that she hadn't come home. I secretly heard Mama Liu and the housekeeper tell her family that Which man did you run away with..." At this point, Xiaoping's face was still a little red, after all, it was a girl's house who hadn't left the court, but it was related to her friends, and she didn't care too much, she continued: "But what is she? What kind of man is here, if there is one, there is only..."

Lu Weizhen naturally knew what she meant. Thinking of Tonger's scars all over her body, she frowned unconsciously, put down the book in her hand, got up and said, "Help me change my clothes. I haven't seen Your Highness for a long time. It's time to visit."

Walking under the eaves of the corridor, a gust of autumn wind blows, swaying the flowers and plants in the courtyard and the skirt of the beautiful woman, and mercilessly sweeps away the last dead leaf struggling on the branch, and I don't know where it will be taken.She doesn't like late autumn, the leaves fade green, or turn yellow and gray, and when the autumn wind comes, she will take one away, whether she likes it or not, she will be merciless, leaving only the gray and desolate branches alone, bearing the loneliness and waiting The invasion of cold winter wind and snow.

Lu Weizhen looked back, the courtyard was still so warm, but she felt a little cold.The wind was still blowing, Xiao Ping hurriedly protected her into the house, the warmth she had just basked in disappeared in an instant, and she still felt a bit like the rain was about to come and the wind filled the building.Poor people have a hard time in winter, and this winter, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult.

When I arrived at the princess mansion, I didn't think that Her Highness the princess was not at the mansion.

"Your Highness went to Tang Lao's mansion together with General Xiao today. He said that he would be back at lunch time. Ms. Lu might as well wait for a while."

General Xiao... Lu Weizhen remained calm, nodded with a smile.Zhou Jinhe had already told her to treat Lu Weizhen as if she were her own master. Everyone in the princess mansion was very considerate to her. Sometimes she even had the illusion that the princess mansion was her home.Unfortunately, it's just an illusion.

There is someone hidden in His Highness's heart, and she knows it.The person in her heart is so good, naturally she can't match it.That person is gone, His Highness has kept her in his heart for so many years, and he still does not forget it.Sometimes Lu Weizhen is really envious. If she is gone one day, His Highness can think of her half like this, and he will have no regrets in this life.

Sometimes she would think, what kind of young talent is worthy of His Highness, and a dude like her brother, who is so rich and jaded, is naturally not worthy.Until she met Xiao Wuding and saw the way His Highness saw him, she finally understood that even if His Highness still misses the person in his heart, that person is also irreplaceable, who might accompany her through this long life and protect her. Yes, I'm afraid there is only Xiao Wuding.

The way he looked at His Highness, the inadvertently affectionate expression, the pampering towards His Highness, was not because of his status, but because he really loved her from the bottom of his heart.Although she didn't understand why Xiao Wuding always kept silent, and always concealed it in front of everyone, but his feelings could never deceive others, otherwise, how could he risk his life time and time again, not hesitating to confront the courtiers like that.People with the same thoughts can easily recognize each other, not to mention smart and delicate like her.

Although His Highness did not reveal it, but only in front of Xiao Wuding, she showed some playfulness that a woman of this age should have, and even acted like a baby, which proved that Xiao Wuding held an extraordinary position in her heart.

Elder Tang was invited to guide him, thinking that the position of consort is in General Xiao's purse.The corner of Lu Weizhen's mouth tugged slightly, making people unable to understand his emotions.

That's right, General Xiao is so outstanding, he is worthy of His Highness.She is just a little regretful, why not let her meet His Highness at the best time.In the next life, if there is a next life, please ask God to give her a complete body, and then let her meet His Highness.

The author has something to say: Aww~ Today is a chapter without the main character~ Pure plot, plot~ Ms. Lu is also pitiful~ This baby went out to eat hot pot with the beautiful young lady [bestie]~
