Reborn Queen

Chapter 82 Tongzhou

Ever since he asked about the progress of An Jingxing's search for someone and confirmed that the people in Tongzhou were not from An Jingxing, Lu Yanqi began to plan for Tongzhou. As a result, the more he understood, the more frightened he became, and the more he planned, the more powerless he felt. At this time, Lu Yanqi discovered that the xenophobia in Tongzhou was much more serious than he had imagined. Many people were sent, but only those who were originally working in Tongzhou from the Qi family could barely ask for some information.

But the person Lu Yanqi is looking for at this time is of great importance. It's not that Lu Yanqi doesn't believe Qi Haoxuan, but because of people's hearts. Even if Qi Haoxuan is trustworthy, his subordinates may not be trustworthy. I didn't want to think about the consequences, so the matter of finding someone stopped for a while.

Originally, Lu Yanqi was thinking that it would be okay to wait for so long in the previous life, but now there are a group of people with unknown origins, and according to Mengyao, those people have no good intentions, making Lu Yan Qi has a sense of urgency, if those people find him first, who knows if he can still meet a living insider?

So after a long search to no avail, Lu Yanqi asked his second brother out without even thinking about it.

"What's wrong with the wind today? How can I let my little brother come to see me in his busy schedule?" Lu Yanxiu just walked into the Spring Breeze Tower, when he saw his little brother propping his chin with a preoccupied look, he couldn't help but say something Joking, trying to ease the atmosphere.

"Yaofeng." Seeing his second brother coming, Lu Yanqi suppressed all his worries in his heart, and joked with Lu Yanxiu.

"Little brother, are you brave?" Seeing this, Lu Yanxiu squinted his eyes at Lu Yanqi, and the big tail behind him began to wag again, knowing that he was digging a hole right now.

"I've always been very courageous." It's a pity that Lu Yanqi already knew his second brother well, seeing Lu Yanxiu like this, he raised his vigilance and didn't take any tricks.

Lu Yanxiu was not annoyed when he saw that the younger brother didn't jump into the pit, and he couldn't stop him from taking it. If the younger brother didn't jump into this pit, he had to jump: "You came to Chunfeng Tower, and the prince actually agreed?"

"That's the generosity of Jing Xing!" Lu Yanqi said, no matter how wind blows from east to west, north, south, I will not move. If I let my second brother know that Chunfenglou is my property, I don't know how I will blow the autumn wind on my head in the future.

You must know that the power in Jing Xing's hands is expanding rapidly recently, and it costs a lot to manage up and down. It is time to spend money, and I am also poor!

Lu Yanxiu was amused by his younger brother's stingy look, why is the younger brother getting more and more stingy now?The younger brother didn't say it clearly, and Lu Yanxiu could guess that there must be some connection between Lu Yanqi and Chunfenglou, but since the younger brother didn't want to say it, Lu Yanxiu didn't ask further.

After walking up to Lu Yanqi and sitting down, he raised his eyes and said, "Shouldn't you be very busy now? How come you have time to make an appointment with your second brother?"

What Lu Yanxiu said was also true, the envoys from the Three Kingdoms would leave Beijing soon, and the struggle between An Jingxing and An Chengji became more and more obvious, and the current situation is not very clear.

Ashina Siyun is obviously more inclined to Lu Yanqi, but Ashina Ruozhen and An Chengji have a good conversation, Mu Kecha and An Jingxing are like-minded, and they have a lot of sympathy in the way of governing the country, but Mua Duo seems to be not interested in An Jingxing, but Wan Chenglu and Ashina Ruozhen have played together many times, and he seems to be serious about An Chengji.

Which is true and false, so that outsiders see flowers in a fog, confused.

"Why am I so busy?" Lu Yanqi shook his head with a smile, raised his hand and poured a cup of hot tea for Lu Yanxiu, "Jing Xing is busy."

The Ashina siblings, Lu Yanqi and An Jingxing, have already decided to give up. Turks are obviously not a suitable partner for cooperation. If the Xiongnu side does not suddenly launch an attack on the Huns, Lu Yanqi is already fully confident. Lu Yanqi knew in his heart that even if he couldn't win him over, An Chengji would definitely not be able to please him.

What Lu Yanqi said is also true. What is happening now is almost done by An Jingxing. The only thing he is doing recently is to find someone.

"Good tea." Lu Yanxiu took a sip of the tea casually, and found that it was not only refreshing and pleasant, but also sweet after entering his throat, so he couldn't help but praise him.

"This tea is called Beauty Peak. If the second brother likes it, I will wait for the younger brother to give you two catties." Lu Yanqi heard the second brother's praise, and made a promise without even thinking about it. Today, the second brother is called. If you want something from others, you must naturally please it.

Hearing this, Lu Yanxiu put down the teacup in his pocket calmly. He had heard of the name of Beauty Peak. It was a new tea launched by the Qi family in recent years. It is said that the output is not high. According to the Qi family, one It is only about three hundred catties a year, and part of it is sent to the palace every year. The Qi family will sell the rest from time to time, and each time it is only one or two catties. Things I don't know.

Lu Yanqi didn't know it at all, and he almost sold himself out with a casual flattery, and now he is thinking about how to talk to his second brother about Tongzhou.

"Little brother is looking for second brother today, what's the matter?" Lu Yanqi didn't open his mouth, but Lu Yanxiu asked first. He knew his little brother's temperament. If it wasn't for something, he would never be so polite today. It's pouring tea and breaking money, obviously asking for something.

If it was someone else, Lu Yanxiu would not mind doing Tai Chi to seek more benefits for himself, but Lu Yanqi is his most beloved younger brother, so naturally he would not come to cheat his family.

"Where is the second brother? It's just that the younger brother misses the second brother, so I just asked the second brother to come out for a chat." Lu Yanqi rolled his eyes as he spoke, and looked at Lu Yanxiu as if thinking of something, "Second brother, you also know, Now little brother, I’m stuck in the capital and can’t get out, my second brother has been to many places, why don’t you tell me about the local customs and customs outside?”

Lu Yanxiu glanced at Lu Yanqi calmly, as if he hadn't noticed Lu Yanqi's calculations, and said gently to Lu Yanqi: "Which place do you want to know about the customs? My second brother has also been there in recent years. Many places, such as Jiangnan, Jiangsu, Lizhou, Jiayuguan, Tongzhou... and so on."

"Let's talk about Jiangnan first." Lu Yanqi's eyes lit up when he heard the word "Tongzhou", but he decided to ask other places first to lay the groundwork. After all, his second brother is a big fox and behaved like a fox. It's not good to be too impatient.

Lu Yanxiu looked at his younger brother's expression, and he had a plan in his mind. His big invisible ears on his head shook, but he didn't expose Lu Yanqi's tricks, and began to tell Lu Yanqi about the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River.

After Lu Yanqi asked about the situation in Jiangnan and Jiangsu, he seemed to inadvertently ask: "What about Tongzhou? Is there anything special about it?"

"This place..." Lu Yanxiu dragged the volume while talking, then paused, "After talking for so long just now, Second Brother is a little hungry."

Lu Yanqi thought that he would know what he wanted to know right away, but the second elder brother changed the subject, and when it came to food, he couldn't help raising his eyes and glaring. When he saw the scheming smile on Lu Yanxiu's face, Lu Yanqi What else does Yan Qi not understand?Did the second brother tease me just now?Who said ancient people had low IQs?

But fortunately, Lu Yanxiu is the second brother, not anyone else, Lu Yanqi's anger immediately subsided, and he looked at Lu Yanxiu with a smile: "What does the second brother want to eat?"

"Second brother is not too demanding. What kind of emerald and white jade soup, what Buddha jumps over the wall, what kind of pearl eight-treasure chicken... just eat whatever you want." Lu Yanxiu nodded as he said, as if he was really easy to talk, but there was a big tail behind him Shaking more cheerfully.

However, Lu Yanqi's breath was stuck in his chest by Lu Yanxiu's words: This is called eating something casually?

But after a while, Lu Yanqi rang a small bell at his hand, ordered Lu Yanxiu's request, and then turned to look at Lu Yanxiu: "Second brother, can you speak now?"

Seeing his little brother gnashing his teeth, Lu Yanxiu couldn't help laughing, but he also knew that he couldn't keep teasing him, so he shook his head and smiled: "What do you want to know, little brother?"

"What does Second Brother know?" Now that the two of them have clarified their words, Lu Yanqi stopped beating around the bush and asked Lu Yanxiu directly how much he knew. That way, he let Lu Yanxiu know as much as he said.

"People in Tongzhou are extremely xenophobic, and they are not particularly friendly to those who go to visit. However, the owner of a local inn once told me that Tongzhou was not like this a few years ago, and the xenophobia has only intensified in recent years." Speaking of business, Lu Yanxiu stopped smiling, recalling what happened when he arrived in Tongzhou, trying his best to tell Lu Yanxi what he knew.

As Lu Yanxiu talked more, Lu Yanxi frowned more and more. Unexpectedly, the situation in Tongzhou was more serious than he imagined.

Lu Yanqi played with the fan in his hand, and after Lu Yanxiu stopped, he seemed to think of something, looked at Lu Yanxiu: "I remember that the second brother and the second sister-in-law also met in Tongzhou, right?"

Lu Yanqi had asked Lu Yanxiu about this matter when he first learned about the relationship between Lu Yanxiu and An Jingrui some time ago. He didn't take it to heart at the time, but now he thinks about it.

"That's right." Lu Yanxiu's eyes flickered, looking at Lu Yanqi, "What do you ask me for?"

"It's nothing, I just heard from Jing Xing that Tongzhou is the fiefdom of the second sister-in-law, so I'm a little curious." Lu Yanqi touched his chin as he spoke, as if the question he asked just now was just a casual one.

"Tongzhou is indeed Xiaoyao's fief, and because of this, the officials there have a good attitude towards Xiaoyao, and they can even say a few words in Tongzhou with their second brother." Lu Yanxiu nodded very generously, but Lu Yanqi could ignore it. Others may not be able to ignore the problem, especially such a big matter as the prince's fiefdom.

"Why are you suddenly interested in Tongzhou?" Lu Yanxiu raised his eyebrows as he looked at his younger brother's pensive look. His younger brother doesn't seem to be interested in something for no reason. There must be a reason for asking today.

"I've been looking for someone recently, and it seems to be in Tongzhou." Lu Yanqi didn't hide anything, and told the story of how he lost several of his subordinates, "My subordinates are not weak in martial arts, are all the people in Tongzhou so powerful? ?”

"There are troublesome people in the poor mountains and rivers, and the officials of Xiaoyao and Tongzhou are also very helpless about the situation in Tongzhou. Now the gangsters in Tongzhou are rampant, and almost everyone has a few skills, either for food or for self-protection, let alone the countryside. The landlord who occupies the land." Lu Yanxiu spread his hands, everyone knows that Tongzhou is poor, and after the fief of Xiaoyao came down, the imperial concubine still made trouble for a long time.

The general meaning is that An Jingrui, like An Chengji, is her son. An Chengji's fief Jiangnan is a land of fish and rice. How come An Jingrui is a barren land like Tongzhou?As a result, the emperor's attitude that time was rare and resolute, no matter what Ji Youyi said, he was unwilling to change An Jingrui's rich fiefdom, which also made An Jingrui's position in the court very embarrassing.

Fortunately, An Jingrui didn't care much about these things. After receiving the fiefdom, he wandered around in a few days, as if he really didn't care where his fiefdom was. If not, I'm afraid that time The imperial concubine and the emperor, there are still grinding.

"So," Lu Yanqi lowered his eyes when he heard the words, and covered up the thoughts in his heart. For some reason, this place in Tongzhou always gave him a strange feeling, making him feel that he had to go there. Here, Lu Yanqi looked at Lu Yanxiu:

"Second brother is going to leave Beijing this time after eldest brother gets married?" Lu Yanqi's idea is that when second brother leaves Beijing, he should find a reason to go with him.

"I'm afraid it won't work," Lu Yanxiu shook his head, and recounted Xiaoyao's helplessness in the past few days, "I haven't found anyone from the imperial concubine, so I probably won't let it go."

"Tsk," Lu Yanqi clicked his tongue disdainfully, "I didn't expect Ji Youyi to be very sincere to King Xiaoyao this time."

"Yeah, who would have thought of that?" Lu Yanxiu couldn't help but sigh when he heard Lu Yanqi's words. After all, a person like Ji Youyi is obviously worthless. Who would have thought that she would do this to an adopted son? okay?

"I don't know if the imperial concubine knows about An Chengji..." Lu Yanqi didn't finish his speech. Brothers fighting against each other is very common in the royal family, but if it is on An Chengji and An Jingrui, it may be a good show.

When Lu Yanxiu heard this, he also fell silent. If the killer at the time of Xiaoyaozhi was sent by An Chengji... Lu Yanxiu put this idea behind him after a while, and continued the topic just now: "Little brother is going to Tongzhou?"

Lu Yanqi's plan is not difficult to guess, Lu Yanxi knew about Lu Yanxiu's itinerary before the Spring Hunting, and he brought it up again today, it was nothing more than wanting to go out of Beijing, and it is not difficult to think about the degree of interest in Tongzhou just now. Guessed.

"I don't feel relieved if I don't go and see for myself." Lu Yanqi nodded. There is nothing to hide from his second brother about this matter.

Lu Yanxiu frowned, and didn't agree with Lu Yanqi's plan: "Second Brother, let's go for you, it's inconvenient for you to leave Beijing now."

"Why is the second brother willing to be separated from the second sister-in-law? It's not important to be left or right, let's see when the time comes." Lu Yanqi waved his hand, rejecting Lu Yanxiu's proposal.

It didn't take long for Lu Yanxiu to understand Lu Yanqi's worries. Because of Xiaoyao, there were quite a few people in Tongzhou who knew him well. If he went to Tongzhou, if he revealed something that was seen by outsiders, Xiaoyao would probably know it too. Obviously, he didn't want the third prince or the fourth prince to know his plan, so he didn't insist.

Just at this time, a gentle female voice came from outside the door. After hearing this voice, Lu Yanqi raised an eyebrow at Lu Yanze: "Second brother, the 'easy' lunch you wanted is here."

Lu Yanxiu couldn't help but smile when he heard Lu Yanqi's confession, he didn't say anything, he glanced at Lu Yanqi with a half-smile, then walked to the table, ready to enjoy a 'simple' lunch.

The two brothers of the Lu family had a happy chat, but Wan Qilu felt a little uncomfortable at this time.

"General?" Yu Wenda looked at Wan Chenglu with a complicated face, and finally couldn't help but speak. Since King Jing of Xiyuan left, the general looks like this, as if he is facing some important decision. of.

"Mingda, tell me..." Wan Chenglu looked at Yu Wenda's bewildered face, finally swallowed back the words that came to his lips, and waved Yu Wenda away, thinking about what happened just now. Inherit what you said to yourself.

It was obviously beneficial to Xianbei, but Wan Qilu couldn't be happy at all. He didn't know whether to feel sad for the emperor of Xiyuan, or for his old opponent, Lu Yuan felt sad...

The author has something to say:

Lu Yanxiu: Dig a pit and bury my brother~

Lu Yanqi: Please bury Jing Xing together, thank you =w=

Lu Yanxiu: Then I'd better dig a hole and bury my brother-in-law!
