Doomsday Farmhouse Tour
Chapter 69 Chess Pieces
In order to welcome Tang Shiyi, the cook still made a few more special dishes.Lu Xiao explained Tang Shiyi to Chang An early on, only saying that he was a merchant who used to do business together.It's just that there was a little accident in the middle, and the goods and money were lost.Temporarily come to stay at Lu's house for a few days...
Chang'an has always been generous, and he didn't have any objection except expressing a few sighs.He was also very enthusiastic when he met Tang Shiyi, even though the man's eyes were a little strange.
"This is Madam..." Ling Jun's introduction was still concise, and Tang Shiyi hurriedly saluted.The reason why he was stunned was because of Lu Xiao's extraordinary taste, no matter how he looked at the person in front of him, he couldn't get the word "good-looking".
"I've seen Mrs. Lu..." Tang Shishi didn't know Lu Xiao well, but he could hear about Lu Xiao's love for his wife when he wandered around for a day.So even if you are a little surprised, you are still very polite at the moment.Especially the simple welcome in that person's eyes made his heart move slightly.
"You're too polite, come and have dinner quickly. The master is coaxing the children at home, so I'll come over right away." Qingyan's clingy temperament became more and more fierce, and she had to be coaxed for a while every time she left.Especially now that he can pick people, he ignores everyone except Lu Xiao.
When Chang An was greeting, Lu Xiao had already coaxed the child to come in.There are three children behind him, the two big and one small are all smiling.Tang Shishi was really surprised when he saw this scene. Lu Xiao seemed young and didn't have any concubines, yet he still had so many children.
"The eldest son Xiuyan, the elder brother Xiu Ming, the second son Mu An...there is also a younger brother Qing Yan, who is too young to bring visitors." Lu Xiao has always introduced this way to the outside world, except for following Lu Xiao for a long time Few of the old people know that Xiuyan Xiuming is actually the adopted son.Including Tang Shiyi at this moment, he never thought of it.
It wasn't until he asked whether the two adopted sons were together during the meal that he didn't know that they were the two. Lu Xiao said that he didn't like the adopted sons, and he always called them by his eldest son and elder brother.Although Tang Shiyi was surprised, he still had to admit that his heart was touched...
Chang'an didn't know Tang Shiyi's true identity, so in order to ease the atmosphere, he only asked about the customs of other regions.Tang Shiyi, as a person who handles secrets for the King of Xiangyang, has been to various places in the early years.Now Changan asked, and he answered fluently.
"This is Shuhe, and I am brother-in-law. Next to him is his wife, Changning, who is Chang'an's younger brother." When Lu Xiao introduced Liu Shuhe, Tang Shiyi couldn't help squinting his eyes.With a clear face, he is no different from those weak scholars who have no strength to restrain a chicken.But he vaguely felt that something was wrong, for some reason he could always smell blood on people.This person probably has blood on his hands...
Liu Shuhe looked back at Tang Shiyi calmly, and he also knew that he couldn't hide anything from such a "senior" who was proficient in assassination.On the contrary, Shuhe was very calm, speaking the same way as everyone else.So apart from the two themselves, no one else felt that there was anything wrong.
Until he was full of wine and food, Tang Shiyi did not make any suspicious moves.However, before leaving, he was a little caught off guard by having a long talk with someone all night, so Liu Shuhe nodded in response.Being so open and honest, Liu Shuhe felt more at ease in his heart, thinking that this person would not dare to do anything for the time being...
Lu Xiao didn't stop him when he heard this, but glanced at Lu Jing, because Lu Jing became a military slave too early, and Tang Shiyi had never met him before, so he didn't know the real strength of this man.Lu Jing's expression remained unchanged, but he shook Yan Zijin's hand secretly.
Yan Zijin has always been a clever person, so he immediately lowered his eyelids, pretending to be incapacitated by alcohol.Lu Jing took the opportunity to bid farewell to Lu Xiao, and the others naturally had no meaning.Tang Shiyi also knew how to avoid taboos, even if he had doubts, he couldn't stare at other people's brothers.Yan Zijin often pretended to be crazy and stupid when he was living abroad, but now he pretends to be intoxicated.For a while, no one saw anything.
Lu Jing hugged Yan Zijin all the way back to his residence, carefully closed the door, and saw the man in his arms frowning, standing in front of him worriedly.
"Who is that person? Chang'an can't hide this from me...Tang Shishi knows everything about business, but he doesn't care about the profit. It can be seen that this identity is just a cover-up." Yan Zijin looked Landing Jing, his expression didn't soften because of the other party's soothing action, "With Lu Xiao's shrewdness, he wouldn't be able to see it? What kind of medicine are you selling in the gourd... don't be in any danger."
Yan Zijin looks heartless, but is actually very careful.In addition to his unusual background, he has not seen such a person before.Although he can't guess his true identity now, he understands a lot of things.
Knowing that the person in front of him was worried, Lu Jing comforted him repeatedly.After all, he was still at Lu's house, Tang Shiyi didn't dare to do anything even if he wanted to.In the past, he was just in case. Although Liu Shuhe's ability has advantages, it still has a lot of disadvantages when it comes to close combat.
"Then be careful..." Yan Zijin didn't say anything to stop her, and she also knew that if she wanted to be safe in this world... in the future, she might have to pay a higher price.Such a price may be a life of wandering without support, or life.
Lu Jing patted Yan Zijin on the shoulder, turned and walked out.Since it was stated early on that the identity of this person needs to be kept secret, Lu Jing naturally wouldn't say much.Although he believed in Yan Zijin, the less people knew about it, the better.
...
Liu Shuhe accompanied Tang Shiyi to leave, and Changning also took his two children back to the room.Liu Shuhe looked at Lu Xiao and nodded slightly, but didn't say anything else.He believed that Lu Xiao could protect Changning and the child well...
"You guys are still on guard against me?" It was impossible for Tang Shixi not to notice this man's small movements, and his tone was calm, but he couldn't feel any dissatisfaction from this man.Liu Shuhe couldn't help chuckling when he heard the words, and then looked at the other party.
"Compared to this moment, isn't it normal to be on guard? If you become one of your own, naturally you don't need these precautions." Liu Shuhe didn't care about being pointed out, but looked back calmly. .Tang Shiyi had been trained since he was a child, and it was only natural that he begged Lu Xiao to be discovered in secret.
"You are the same as Lu Xiao, you don't take half a word..." Tang Shixi said so, and then paused.Then he raised his head again, looking at Lu Xiao with a careless and serious look.Even Liu Shuhe wanted to distinguish, but couldn't see clearly for a while.
"You are no less strategic than that person, why are you willing to be a shadow? If one day he thinks you know too many secrets..." Tang Shiyi's words were quite provocative, even so Liu Shuhe still expressed very calm.He has never felt guilty about this matter, so naturally he can face it calmly.He didn't even waver the way he looked at Tang Shiyi.
"Although everyone's wishes are different, my brother-in-law and I are the same." When Liu Shuhe said this, his expression was naturally relaxed, and it was easy to see that the words were sincere and not false. "Brother doesn't care about fame, fortune and power. If it is said that the only person he cares about in the world is his brother. Brother and brother have known each other since infancy, and they have been very affectionate for several years... even if they are surrounded by temptations, they have not changed. .”
"I don't know what you want in your heart, but what my brother-in-law and I want is for our family to live in peace and happiness. As for whose status is higher, what is the importance of this matter?" Liu Shuhe looked at Tang Shiyi, The corners of the mouth are slightly hooked.The gentleness on the surface has not disappeared, and the seriousness in the eyes has become stronger. "If you only want to find someone who is ambitious and dominates the world, brother-in-law is definitely not what you want, but I..."
What I hate the most are people who try to arouse brother-in-law's ambition and make him jealous.Liu Shuhe didn't say the last sentence, but Tang Shiyi seemed to feel it.After eating this meal, he felt a lot of emotions. These people surrounded Lu Xiao vaguely.People with ulterior motives will be hurt by their sharp minions first if they approach... Such Lu Xiao is either very good at disguising or treating the people around him sincerely.
"Peace and joy..." Tang Shixi muttered these four words for a long time. When he was still naive, he had imagined that one day he would be safe and happy, and his life would be at ease.It's a pity that it was just a dream after all. At that time, King Xiangyang said that as long as he killed those supernatural beings, he would set himself free in the future.As a result, once the supernatural being turned over, he became the one who was pushed out.
"You really trust him..." Tang Shiyi looked at Liu Shuhe after regaining his composure, with a smile that seemed to be sarcasm or self-deprecating.In addition to helplessness, there is more sadness, and that kind of sadness just floods the eyes like a ubiquitous water flow.
Liu Shuhe just looked at it and didn't say anything more, trust me?He trusted Lu Xiao, but which one at the dinner table didn't trust him?He just has this kind of ability, even though he is as cold as ice on weekdays, he is extraordinarily careful and thoughtful about the details.
Tang Shiyi looked at Liu Shuhe, and couldn't help but laugh lowly at his unmoved appearance.It seems to be laughing at myself for being hypocritical, laughing at myself for making a decision early but trying again and again.Even if this person is not the Ming Lord, he has no choice.The way back has been cut off long ago, so what if he doesn't believe it?Facts are facts.
The letter was stained with the blood of the former brother, full of hatred.Thinking of Ling Jun, Tang Shiyi closed his eyes and looked at Liu Shuhe.There was still that bewildering smile on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was low.Liu Shuhe could still hear the laughter and words, very slowly.
"Please tell Lu Xiao, I like the word Wei very much. So do the brothers, I hope that in the future... I can also afford this word."
Liu Shuhe couldn't help smiling when he heard the words, and his eyes softened when he looked at Tang Shiyi.As if the previous estrangement was fake, Tang Shiyi couldn't help laughing at the speed of his face-changing.
"You are such an interesting person..." Tang Shiyi said, but his eyes looked into the distance.He thought a lot in his heart, today he talked with Ling Jun and used words to test this obviously thoughtful person in front of him.Everything he saw told him that the so-called core members of the Lu family were more united than he imagined.What's more, they are locked together by invisible ropes...
...
Back at the residence, cronies quickly surrounded him.Tang Shiyi didn't go into too many details, but simply talked about Ling Jun's affairs.Everyone immediately looked at each other in blank dismay. Didn't they get revenge that day to get them into such a messy situation.Now...this place is actually...
"It's okay, Ling Jun and I have already talked about it. The one who really wants revenge is the one who eats the king's salary, the loyalty to the king...he has no intention of dealing with us." Tang Shixi couldn't help but paused when he said this, his expression changed A touch of firmness. "Even if what he said is false, the ultimate goal will not change. Our goal is the same... for the deep hatred of those dead brothers."
Perhaps King Xiangyang himself could not have imagined that the chess piece he had given up would plant the seeds of revenge in a place he didn't even know about.Only one day later, the sharp knife was deeply inserted into his neck.
Chang'an has always been generous, and he didn't have any objection except expressing a few sighs.He was also very enthusiastic when he met Tang Shiyi, even though the man's eyes were a little strange.
"This is Madam..." Ling Jun's introduction was still concise, and Tang Shiyi hurriedly saluted.The reason why he was stunned was because of Lu Xiao's extraordinary taste, no matter how he looked at the person in front of him, he couldn't get the word "good-looking".
