Long Wind Crossing

The Zhou family's army stopped in Linfen and set up a seven-day mourning hall for Mrs. Zhou and Qin Wanzhi.

Make a decision that night, Zhou Ye started to keep a vigil for Qin Wanzhi. The seven-star lamp was lit in the mourning hall. According to legend, this lamp with seven wicks will illuminate the deceased's Huangquan road, allowing the deceased Can see clearly the way forward.

That's why Zhou Ye refused to sleep and kept watch, afraid that the light would go out.

Gu Jiusi did not dissuade him, so he accompanied him. There were mourning singing and crying in Linfen. Zhou Ye knelt in front of the mourning hall, guarding a lamp, and said nothing.

Gu Jiusi lowered his head and burned the paper money. After a long time, Zhou Ye said slowly, "Actually, you all know it."

Gu Jiusi's movement of burning paper money paused slightly, he lowered his head and looked at the beating flames, and it took a long time before he responded, "Yeah."

"Why did they die?"

Zhou Ye lowered his eyes: "Didn't we already promise to go to Yuzhou?"

"Because of Luozishang, I don't want you to go to Yuzhou."

Gu Jiusi whispered: "He just used a name to transfer the soldiers from the front line of Yuzhou to facilitate Liu Xingzhi's attack on Yuzhou, and then use the death of Mrs. Zhou and sister-in-law to anger you and let you attack Dongdu. Afterwards, you will lose both in the East and the army that should be on the front line. Luo Zishang will make another move. What he wants is this world."

"So," Zhou Ye's eyelashes trembled, "what did you do?"

Gu Jiusi heard the unwillingness in his words, he pursed his lips, and finally said, "I tried to save my sister-in-law."

"But you didn't save."

Zhou Ye looked up at him: "Can I blame you?"

Gu Jiusi was speechless, he squeezed his shirt tightly, and said in a low voice: "Brother, what are you going to do, I can't stop..."

, he lowered his head and said slowly, "You are guessing, if Wanzhi really died, my father and I would not go to Yuzhou, and would definitely attack the Eastern Capital, so you transferred your troops in advance to let Shen Ming Go to the front line and block Liu Xingzhi."

Gu Jiusi lowered his head, he took a deep breath: "Brother..."

"Why are you so indifferent?"

Zhou Ye looked at him: "Why do you know that Wanzhi is going to die and that I will have no way out, yet you are still so calmly thinking about how to mobilize your troops and stabilize the overall situation?"

"Because I know," Gu Jiusi said with difficulty, "sister-in-law lived and died for everyone, I can't let her die in vain."

These words made Zhou Ye stop talking. He lowered his eyes and looked at the dancing lights guarded by his men. After a long time, he finally said, "Go out."

"I want to be alone and be with Wanzhi."

On the third day after Qin Wanzhi's mourning hall was set up, Shen Ming led 30,000 troops to the border of Yangzhou. He gave Liu Yuru news while he was still on the road. When he arrived at the border of Yangzhou, Liu Yuru was ready. She found Yang Longsi and used Yang Longsi's hand to contact many former Yangzhou noble children. Chen Xun approached Mrs. Ji, and with Mrs. Ji, she had already prepared the "feeling" between Liu Yuru and Luo Zishang, and Wang Pingzhang also took the money around. RBI, bought a large number of people.

The night she received the news from Shen Ming, she called both Wang Pingzhang and Chen Xun, and said to them, "Youzhou has sent 30,000 soldiers and horses here, and the news will arrive the day after tomorrow at the latest. Yangzhou, we will start early tomorrow morning, and then we will take the seal of Zishang, and immediately let the cities open the way, and welcome the troops and horses of Youzhou in to help us calm the chaos."

"Thirty thousand?"

Wang Pingzhang was quite shocked: "Why are there so many people here?"

"Yangzhou is just passing by," Liu Yuru explained immediately, "The main thing for him is to go to Youzhou."

Hearing this, Wang Pingzhang calmed down a lot, he nodded and said, "Understood."

their people. Wang Pingzhang originally wanted to poison the soldiers directly, but Liu Yuru stopped them, just said: "Menghan medicine works better. After they faint, they are all tied up."

Wang Pingzhang gave up this idea under Liu Yuru's dissuasion, and then they forged a small fan and a jade pendant according to Liu Yuru's words. These two things are Luo Zishang's personal belongings. Liu Yuru had seen them earlier. After she imitated these two things, she carried the child and went to Luofu the next day.

She arrived at the entrance of Luo Mansion, stood at the entrance, and said loudly, "Go and inform Xiao Ming, saying that Liu Yuru, Liu's business firm, came to ask for a meeting."

Liu's firm is also quite important in Yangzhou. The most important thing is that everyone knows that Luozishang has invested a lot of money in the business road of Liu's firm, and the servants dare not neglect it. Immediately go to inform Xiao Ming. Xiao Ming heard that Liu Yuru was coming, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Please."

In the beginning, Mrs. Liu was harvesting grain in Yangzhou, which caused turbulent grain prices in Yangzhou later. Xiao Ming still remembers this very well. What's more, after Luo Zishang and Liu Yuru had a close relationship, Xiao Ming didn't dare to neglect.

Xiao Ming is the younger brother of Luo Zishang, and he is a little more intimate than others. He often sees an umbrella that Luo Zishang puts in his study. That umbrella is just a random one from Yangzhou Wharf The umbrella, but Luo Zishang treasured it. Xiao Ming knew that this umbrella was unusual, so he went to inquire about it, only to find out that it was given by Liu Yuru.

Because of this relationship, he knew that his senior brother had extraordinary feelings for this lady. When he was busy in the lobby, he saw that Liu Yuru was already sitting in the lobby.

She was holding a child and was teasing the child with her head down. After a brief hesitation, Xiao Ming saluted respectfully: "Xiao Ming has seen Mrs. Liu."

"A-ming is here," Liu Yuru raised her head with a smile when she heard Xiao Ming's words, as if she was a gentle elder, and said softly, "Is it convenient for you to speak further?"

Xiao Ming looked at Liu Yuru and felt a little nervous. Liu Yuru's series of actions were too abnormal, but he still responded and let everyone go down. After everyone left, Xiao Ming sat down Sitting next to Liu Yuru, she said cautiously, "Mrs. Liu is here today, but is there something important?"

Liu Yuru has been doing business abroad for many years, and many people take her surname as their honorary title. And Xiao Ming stubbornly called Mrs. Liu Yuru Liu, naturally because of his selfishness.

He still hopes that Luozishang can have a home.

In this way, Luo Zishang may be able to live a happier life. This is also his wish as a junior and senior brother.

Although Liu Yuru is married to Gu Jiusi, in Xiao Ming's heart, since Gu Jiusi is their enemy, he will die sooner or later. The wife of a dying person naturally means that he has no husband. So from the beginning, Xiao Ming had regarded Liu Yuru as a widow.

Liu Yuru didn't know the thoughts of this young man, hugged Gu Jin, sighed and said, "There is indeed something, I don't know how to say it... Your brother, he is in the Eastern Capital. Son, have you heard that too?"

"I heard."

Xiao Ming nodded, then said: "Is this related to Mrs. Liu's coming today?"

"I..." Liu Yuru pursed her lips, seemingly embarrassed, "I shouldn't have said this, but I can't do anything about it either. My brother and I are in the Eastern Capital..."

Liu Yuru said, with a bit of blush on her face, Xiao Ming said blankly: "Ah?"

After this "ah", Xiao Ming reacted suddenly, and then said incredulously: "You...you and my brother..."

"This child belongs to him." Liu Yuru lowered her head and whispered, "I didn't want to say it, but he and my husband are like that, I have to have a position. My husband also found out about this incident, the East was in chaos, I went into exile and couldn’t go back, so I had to come to Yangzhou.”

Liu Yuru said, with a bit of sadness in her voice: "He told me at the beginning that he would marry me when the world is settled in the future. I don't know if this is true. But now I There is no way out, even if he doesn't marry me, he has to give the child a way to survive."

The beauty was crying so much that it was raining, Liu Yuru was waiting for Xiao Ming to ask her for a token, but after staring at Gu Jin for a long time, Xiao Ming clapped his hands and said, "I said, this child's Eyes, how do you look like senior brother!"

Liu Yuru: "…"

Gu Jin looks like Gu Jiusi, and Gu Jiusi looks similar to Jiang He. Although Luo Zishang doesn't look like Jiang He in other parts, the eyes alone are printed with the same mold.

Xiao Ming suddenly became a little excited, he hurriedly said: "Do you know about this, senior brother?"

Liu Yuru shook her head: "I...I didn't let him know. I planned to just let it go, but now, Gu Jiusi discovered it again, alas..."

Liu Yuru sighed, Xiao Ming nodded and said, "I understand, I understand." After speaking, he leaned in front of Gu Jin, and said with some joy, "Can I hug her? Is it a girl?"

Liu Yuru nodded and said happily, "This is half of your niece. You should hug her as well."

Xiao Ming quickly stretched out his hand and hugged Gu Jin.

.

Liu Yuru was a little unbearable when she saw such a vivid person, but now that everything is arranged, the arrow is on the line, and she can't allow her to think too much. , can you arrange a room for me and Jin'er to rest for a while?"

Xiao Ming only remembered when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "It's mine, isn't it, I'll arrange it for my sister-in-law."

Speaking, Xiao Ming called someone over, he quickly let someone clean the yard of Luo Zishang, and then led Liu Yuru: "Come with me, sister-in-law, brother has not come back for a long time, first I cleaned the guest room in his yard for you," he said, looking at Liu Yuru, observing Liu Yuru's expression, and seemed to remind, "When you are settled, I will send the news of your arrival to Yangzhou to senior brother."

Liu Yuru heard the temptation in these words.

If she has nothing to do with Luo Zishang, once Xiao Ming communicates with Luo Zishang, she will reveal the bottom. But Liu Yuru didn't intend to give him this time to receive letters, so she smiled and said, "Then you have to tell him to let him come back to Yangzhou earlier, and I'll wait for him here."

He hugged Gu Jin and teased Gu Jin while talking to Liu Yuru.

A bit in a trance. She was a little surprised by Xiao Ming's joy, and couldn't help but say, "You seem to like A Jin very much."

"Yes," Xiao Ming turned back and said with a smile, "This is the child of senior brother."

"You treat your brother," Liu Yuru was a little puzzled, "Why do you maintain it like this?"

"Because my life was saved by my brother."

Senior brother, he is," Xiao Ming laughed, "in fact, he is very gentle."

Liu Yuru was a little dazed, she couldn't help saying: "I thought he..."

Speaking, she stopped her voice, pursed her lips, and said nothing. Xiao Ming already understood, he said gently: "Do you think he is vicious and vicious? Actually he is not," Xiao Ming smiled bitterly, "He is cruel, just because the world is more cruel to him. ," Xiao Ming sent Liu Yuru to the yard, and said helplessly, "Who doesn't want a clean job?"

Liu Yuru did not speak, Xiao Ming took her to the door, Gu Jin was a little sleepy in his arms, he handed Gu Jin to Liu Yuru, and then said: "Senior brother has a difficult life, I am I won't be able to accompany him forever, you are here and give him a home, I'm very happy."

These words made Liu Yuru a little surprised. Seeing her surprise, Xiao Ming softened his tone and said softly: "He really likes you and will be nice to you in the future."

"Thanks...Thanks..."

Liu Yuru bowed her head, unable to speak.

Xiao Ming thought she was tired, so he persuaded her to rest, and then left.

As soon as Liu Yuru entered Luo Mansion, Chen Xun went to find Mrs. Ji.

In the past few days, Wang Pingzhang has managed it, and Liu Yuru's people have introduced him. He has been able to say a few words by Mrs. Ji's side. He knew a lot of news about Luo Zishang in the Eastern Capital, and Mrs. Ji was very concerned. Mrs. Ji already knew the news about Liu Yuru, but Chen Xun entered the house recently and told Mrs. Ji, "Liu Yuru came to Yangzhou today with a child. Into Luo Mansion."

"Kids?!"

Mrs. Ji exclaimed in shock: "How could Xiao Ming let her into Luo Mansion?!"

"This..."

Chen Xun bit the bullet and said, "I heard that this child may be..."

Hearing this, Mrs. Ji's face was extremely ugly.

She was once held in the clouds by Wang Shanquan because of her beauty, and fell into the dust because of her new concubine. Everything she has now is held in one hand by Luo Zishang. In her heart, Luo Zishang is like Wang Shanquan, the object she wants to fight for. Now that Liu Yuru came here suddenly, Madam Ji was jealous and angry, and Chen Xun next to her saw her appearance and reminded: "Liu Yuru has a husband, and this time I am here, I am afraid that she intends to live for a long time. Madam, you can't indulge this. "

"What do you think?"

Mrs. Ji turned back immediately and said angrily, "Can I still kill her?!"

"Why not?" Chen Xun looked up at Mrs. Ji, when Mrs. Ji heard this, she stared at Chen Xun in a daze, Chen Xun whispered, "Madam's top priority is not to Let Liu Yuru live in Luo Mansion. You go over now, let her move out of Luo Mansion first, it's better to live with you, and then send a killer..."

Chen Xun raised his hand and made a "cut" gesture on his neck: "It's not too late to kill."

"Kill her..." Mrs. Ji was a little scared, "In case Zishang doesn't like it..."

"The madam and the son-in-law, Mrs. Luo is not someone who can't tell the difference. Compared with Mr. Luo's dislike, let Mrs. Liu live in Luo's house and become Mrs. Luo..."

"Impossible!"

Mrs. Ji resolutely opened her mouth, she remembered her previous days in the palace, gritted her teeth, and immediately said: "According to what you said, I'll go over, she is still Mrs. Gu, come to Luofu What's the matter with living?"

Having said that, Mrs. Ji immediately summoned a group of people, and led her men to the Luo Mansion.

When she arrived at the entrance of Luo Mansion, she immediately said, "I heard that Mrs. Gu is coming to Luo Mansion, and she came to ask for an appointment."

When the attendant heard this, he remembered Xiao Ming's order not to disturb Liu Yuru, and frowned, "Mrs.

"You still want to lie to me?!"

When Mrs. Ji heard this, she knew that Xiao Ming was protecting Liu Yuru, and she was instantly furious.

Chen Xun followed her, grabbed a maid, and asked, "Where does Mrs. Liu live?"

"Your Excellency...in the Courtyard."

The maid trembled, Chen Xun turned around and said to Mrs. Ji, "In Lord Luo's room."

I'm out!"

Liu Yuru was coaxing Gu Jin to sleep, she sat in the room and didn't speak, she knew Xiao Ming would come to deal with this matter.

Seeing that Liu Yuru could not come out, Mrs. Ji snorted, "Look."

Speaking, Mrs. Ji's bodyguard rushed in. At this time, Xiao Ming's voice came from the outer courtyard, shouting: "Mrs. Ji!"

Hearing Xiao Ming's voice, Mrs. Ji froze. She was still a little afraid of Xiao Ming. Although Xiao Ming was only nineteen years old, he was in the same lineage as Luo Zishang.

She turned her head with difficulty, Xiao Ming had a blue robe and a golden crown, with his hands between his sleeves, looked at Madam Ji coldly and said, "Bringing so many people into Luo Mansion, Madam Ji has What are you doing?"

Mrs. Ji did not dare to speak, Chen Xun took a step forward and respectfully said: "Madam heard that Mrs. Gu is visiting Yangzhou today, thinking that there is no place suitable for women's family to rest in Luofu, I have come to welcome Mrs. Gu. Go to the palace to entertain."

"The palace?"

Xiao Ming's tone was sarcastic, he looked Chen Xun up and down, seemed to have a little impression, and sneered: "The soft head who eats women's rice, palm mouth!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guard next to Xiao Ming rushed up and slapped Chen Xun in the face.

Chen Xun was knocked to the ground, Mrs. Ji screamed and said angrily: "Xiao Ming, what do you mean?!"

"What do I mean?"

Xiao Ming took a step forward: "Mrs. Ji also wants to recognize her identity. The guests of Luofu are guests of Luofu, and it is not your turn to take care of them."

"Xiao Ming," Madam Ji was thoroughly enraged, she gritted her teeth, "What kind of thing is she Liu Yuru, you want to fight against me for her?! You can think about it, it's the young master who is important , or Liu Yuru is important."

Hearing the threat, Xiao Ming smiled: "The young master is important, but Madam is the future eldest lady of my Luo family. Madam Ji hope to be more sober and not make trouble."

These words made Mrs. Ji stunned. Mrs. Ji stared at Xiao Ming. After a while, she exclaimed: "Luo Zishang is crazy?! She is Gu Jiusi's wife!"

"She's here in Yangzhou," Xiao Ming lowered his voice, "it's not Gu Jiusi's wife anymore, and I hope Mrs. Ji speaks carefully."

"Who are you lying to you?" Mrs. Ji gasped and pointed to the inner courtyard, "Who doesn't know that she is still Gu Jiusi's wife now, and even if she has a man, she comes out to find a man..."

"Mrs. Ji!"

Xiao Ming raised his voice and interrupted Mrs. Ji's words. Mrs. Ji sneered and laughed: "Why, you can't tell me if you can do it? butterfly…"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ming slapped Mrs. Ji and staggered. The maid next to her came to support Mrs. Ji and said hurriedly, "Madam!"

What? A lowly prostitute who came from a dancer, still misses my senior brother? He doesn't take care of himself, and my senior brother is someone you can say casually?"

Mrs. Ji was completely blinded by Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming turned his head and glanced at Chen Xun next to him, and mocked: "Why, don't you help Mrs. down? I have to make trouble even more ugly. Is it?"

Hearing this, Chen Xun hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "Madam, let's go."

Mrs. Ji covered her face, tears welling up in her eyes, Chen Xun showed an unbearable gesture, and whispered: "Madam, we are protecting you, let's go."

Mrs. Ji didn't speak, she pushed aside the maids around, lowered her head and rushed out.

Now everyone sees him hitting me, how can I stay here in Yangzhou in the future? How dare he hit me? How can he hit me? "

Chen Xun got this slap, and his heart was on fire, but he remembered his purpose, he could only sigh, and said helplessly: "Madam thinks, they are planning to let the young master have a future ?"

Mrs. Ji froze, she panicked, looked up at Chen Xun and said, "You... what do you mean?"

We need to use the young master to appease these people. When Luo Zishang has a firm foothold in Dongdu, he will have a lot of power, do you think he still needs the young master?"

"In the past, Mrs. can still think about it, Luo Zishang has some friendship with you, and you and him have a good relationship, but now Liu Yuru is here, you can understand Xiao Ming's attitude, Luo Zishang Who is in your heart, Liu Yuru already has a daughter now, or with Gu Jiusi around, if Luo Zishang really gets married with Liu Yuru in the future and has a son, isn’t it a matter of time? When Luo Zishang has a son, what do you think? , is he still willing to be the assistant of the young master?"

Mrs. Ji became more and more flustered by Chen Xun, she grabbed Chen Xun and said anxiously, "Then what should I do?"

Mrs. Ji looked at Chen Xun: "He has other women by his side now, Xiao Ming protects her like this, I have no way to get it, I...I..."

"Madam," Chen Xun raised his hand, put it on Madam Ji's hand, and said seriously, "You don't have to rely on Luo Zishang."

Mrs. Chen was stunned, she stared at Chen Xun blankly, Chen Xun was handsome, looked at Mrs. Ji with a pair of handsome eyes, and said softly: "If Mrs. is willing, Chen Xun is willing to serve her. labor."

"You mean..."

Mrs. Ji was a little afraid to speak out, Chen Xun exerted force on her hand, and said firmly: "The news of Liu Yuru's arrival in Yangzhou, Xiao Ming should have passed to Luo Zishang tonight, we are in Luozi Take over Yangzhou as soon as possible before the merchants come back."

"No." Mrs. Ji said in fear, "Xiao Ming now has military power in his hands, everyone listens to him..."

"Who said that everyone listened to him?" Chen Xun laughed, "Before, only Luo Zishang isolated you from other people. Madam, you must know that there are many people in Yangzhou. They are all still from the old Wang family, and they are not really loyal to Luo Zishang. As long as the madam gives an order, these people will immediately defect to the madam, does the madam know about Wang Pingzhang?"

"Of course it is known."

Wang Pingzhang is Xiao Ming's capable man. Even if Mrs. Ji doesn't care about anything, she knows who Wang Pingzhang is. Chen Xun lowered his voice: "Wang Pingzhang is the old part of the Wang family."

Mrs. Ji opened her eyes wide, but after a while, she slowly recovered. If Wang Pingzhang is an old part of the Wang family, it proves that she still has other support in Yangzhou!

Recognizing this, Mrs. Ji's mind became active. She hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Chen Xun: "You...why are you being so kind to me?"

These words were beyond Chen Xun's expectations, but he quickly adjusted his state and said softly, "It is always the lady's person below."

Chen Xunyi wanted to show her loyalty, but Mrs. Ji showed a surprised look after hearing this, and after a long time, she felt a little guilty and said, "It's because I'm slow and I didn't cherish the people in front of me. ."

Hearing Madam Ji's self-righteous understanding, Chen Xun's forehead jumped with blue veins, but he didn't dare to remind Madam Ji at this time, so he pushed the boat and said: "If Madam wants to do something, you have to hurry up. If Luo Zishang receives the letter, there is no guarantee that he will not come back to Yangzhou, then it will be difficult for us to move bleak. Now we will move bleak first, and then set up a net for Luo Zishang. As soon as he comes back, we will immediately Catch him, then, together with the madam, I will raise the young master well, and when the son is in charge of Yangzhou in the future, I will go through fire and water for the son and help the son to rule the world!"

"Chen Xun," Mrs. Ji looked at Chen Xun's promise, she held Chen Xun's hand, and said sincerely, "Don't worry, I will not let you down."

"Doing things for Madam," Chen Xun resisted the urge to break free, and forcibly acted as an infatuated humane, "Chen Xun thinks without regrets!"

The two settled the big event in the carriage. After arriving at the palace, Chen Xun hurriedly went to Wang Pingzhang who had already prepared it and said, "Mrs. Ji is here, get ready to do it."

Wang Pingzhang responded, and Chen Xun took the name of Mrs. Ji and began to worry about the old part of the Wang family.

When everyone was busy, Xiao Ming just wrote a letter to Luo Zishang, and then went to the yard to tease Gu Jin.

"What's her name?"

Xiao Ming shook the rattle, teased Gu Jin who was lying on the ground, and casually asked Liu Yuru.

"Jin'er."

Liu Yuru echoed back, she quietly stared at the young man in the sunset, somewhat incomprehensible.

This person is just like Luo Zishang, they are terrifying and ruthless when they do things, human life seems worthless in their hearts, and they will not break their hands for the result. However, when they were far away from the battlefields of those powers, they looked like ordinary people again. He can laugh and make trouble, think about having a home, try his best to protect the people he wants to protect, and even be so innocent and cute when he is shaking a rattle in the sun.

Liu Yuru didn't understand why so many contradictions were gathered in one person, she looked at him quietly, Xiao Ming found that she was looking at him, turned his head, and said with some doubts: "Sister-in-law is watching what?"

"You..." Liu Yuru pursed her lips and said cautiously, "You seem to be a little bit different from what I think, not quite the same."

"Huh?" Xiao Ming looked at Gu Jin and said casually, "What's the difference?"

Liu Yuru didn't know how to describe it for a while, she thought about it, and finally said: "You are very similar to Zishang."

"Where is it?" Xiao Ming was a little happy when he heard this. He raised his head and said a little excitedly, "Quick, tell me."

"It's not like the rumors outside, nor the people in the eyes of others." Liu Yuru lowered her head and turned a small wind lane for Gu Jin, "When I first met Zishang, the original I thought he was a vicious and cruel person who had nothing in his heart. But then I found out that he was not."

He will miss a piece of cake more than ten years ago, and he will try to repay this kindness in times of crisis.

"I thought," Liu Yuru cautiously said, "You people who are in high positions and can do things ruthlessly should be..."

, "You're not the first to say that."

Liu Yuru didn't speak, she listened quietly. Perhaps it was because of his youth that Xiao Ming was too well protected by Luo Zishang. He didn't have any unpleasant viciousness. The rattle in his hand made rhythmic sounds along with the wind chimes under the eaves under the wind. He looked at the sky and said slowly, "Sister-in-law, in fact, as long as you are human and live in this world, you will have his feelings. There are those who care, there will be love, and there will be hate. It’s just how we deal with this relationship, it’s all different. But why is there any difference? It’s because we see the world from the first sight, and the world gives us is different.”

It is close to Youzhou, and most of the refugees rushed to Youzhou. Since then, Youzhou has more soldiers and more food, but Yangzhou is different. Yangzhou is a long way, and you are afraid of starvation when you walk on the road. Fortunately, Yangzhou is prosperous. Requiring food for relief from wealthy businessmen has prevented thousands of people from suffering innocently. At that time, did my sister-in-law have no idea?"

It is your evil and your good. Your evil is for your own position, and you do not hesitate to use such means to disturb the people, and your good always leaves a way out for them, and does not push people to a desperate situation. This is your good and evil. , but how did your good and evil come from? It is nothing more than that when you first knew the world, some people treated you well, and some people treated you badly. In the end, you found a way between good and bad. You Sober and calm, he has his own bottom line, but it is not completely clean. He will not arbitrarily add responsibilities to himself, nor will he commit murder."

"The same is true for Gu Jiusi, why did he walk so cleanly and smoothly? You see when he was young, his parents were loving, his uncle was in a high position, and he never knew the slightest suffering. You and his family accompany him. He has never touched the slightest filth in this world. Even if his family is down, his heart is full. He will always be like the sun shining in all directions. This is because where he is, it will always be bright. But my brother is different. From birth, everything we see is despair. We seldom touch the kindness of this world, so how can we be like Gu Jiusi, pity all beings?"

Liu Yuru looked at Xiao Ming, unable to speak for a while. There was a kind of sourness in her heart, she looked at such a beautiful young man and couldn't help saying: "If, when you and Zishang were younger, someone treated you well and taught you to get along with the world, wouldn't you? meeting…"

"I won't live like this."

Xiao Ming took over, he was too smart. After he finished speaking, he said with some regret: "But, there is no if. My brother and I have grown up, and it is very difficult for us to change our view of the world. We are also used to suspicion and indifference, and we can't change it. However, Sister-in-law, don't be afraid," Xiao Ming smiled, "We are very kind to our own people."

"Then why don't you suspect me?" Liu Yuru opened her mouth in confusion, Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "My brother likes you, he is such a good person, how can you not like him Woolen cloth?"

Speaking, Xiao Ming propped his chin: "You don't know, the umbrella you gave to senior brother, he has been in the room. Write to me and mention your name several times. He doesn't worry about you, why would he say so much? Although he didn't tell me anything about you, I know he is very boring. Sister-in-law," Xiao Ming said with a smile, " Tell me about you and him."

Liu Yuru lowered her head when she heard this, and seemed a little embarrassed: "Also... there is nothing to say."

"It seems that he is using force!"

Xiao Ming said happily: "Isn't my sister-in-law unwilling at first?"

"Neither... nor did he."

Liu Yuru stammered, as if she was extremely embarrassed by this topic, Xiao Ming thought she was shy, waved his hand and said, "That's it, I won't ask, I'll go ask senior. He is used to Come to hurt me, I will pester him more, and he will say it."

Speaking, a servant from outside walked in in a hurry, the servant covered Xiao Ming's ear and whispered something, Xiao Ming sneered and said with disdain: "She has a brain I'm finally awake."

"Sister-in-law," Xiao Ming turned to look at her, "I still have something to do. You have dinner first, and I will accompany you to dinner tomorrow."

Liu Yuru nodded, Xiao Ming hugged Gu Jin, and said happily: "Little Jin'er, uncle will deal with some things, come back to play with you, Jin'er wants to know if uncle knows ?"

Gu Jin clucked and grabbed him, Xiao Ming happily kissed Gu Jin, and then left.

He put the rattle he bought for Gu Jin aside, Liu Yuru watched Gu Jin reach out to grab the rattle on the ground, she bowed her head and said nothing, after a long time, she lowered her head and gave it to the opposite table cup with a cup of tea.

Not long after Xiao Ming left, a servant brought her a cake. Liu Yuru picked up the cake and saw the note pressed under the cake. It was Chen Xun's handwriting: Start.

Liu Yuru's hand holding the cake trembled slightly, and after a long time, she finally said nothing. She reached out and hugged Gu Jin, took the rattle beside her, stood up, and walked out of the courtyard.

Chen Xun has arranged for someone to respond, and she has to go.

Mrs. Ji invited Xiao Ming to a banquet in the name of the little son, saying that she wanted to apologize for what happened today. Before the banquet, Mrs. Ji, with the assistance of Chen Xun and Wang Pingzhang, met with the old members of the Wang family one by one. In the past, young children of Yangzhou nobles also came in under the name of the old family of the Wang family and met Mrs. Ji.

Then they deployed, ready to assassinate.

Xiao Ming has always looked down on Mrs. Ji. She invited him to a dinner. He thought that Mrs. Ji was sober and knew to ease the relationship. In the face of Wang Xiaogong, this kind of affection he He still wanted to give it to Mrs. Ji, so he led people to the palace.

He shouted loudly, "Get out!
