happy day

Chapter 21

The next morning, the two woke up, one with dark circles under his eyes.

Wu Luan asked his servants to set up breakfast in the room, with thinner soup and porridge set up on the table.The two sat at the table facing each other after washing.

Holding the porridge bowl, Wu Luan discussed with Liu Yiru, "Brother, this night is safe and sound, even if there is an assassin, he will retreat. So you can rest assured that you don't have to guard me. How can you sleep well on the cold bed? Thinking of you being wronged, brother, he couldn't sleep well all night."

Liu Yiru picked up a tofu bun in front of him, and said in a low voice: "In the past, I often lived in your house, and you never said that you can't sleep well."

"It all happened when I was a child." Wu Luan didn't take it seriously, "At that time you were only ten years old, half a head shorter than me, woke up by thunder in the middle of the night, and crawled onto my bed with the quilt in your arms."

When Liu Yiru thought about the past, his face became hot, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were flushed red.

"But it's different now." Wu Luan earnestly said.

"What's the difference?" Liu Yiru raised his eyes and asked back, "Do you think we are biologically divided?"

"Brother, we are a family, how could we divide?" Wu Luan didn't understand why Liu Yiru, who looked very smart, only asked such stupid questions, "It's just that we are all grown up now, brother, I will soon Marrying your sister as a wife, you should also talk about marriage. It is not proper for the two of us to sleep in the same room."

Seeing that Liu Yiru was silent, Wu Luan took a sip of porridge with spring bamboo shoots and shredded chicken and continued: "Brother, there are dozens of guards in this house anyway, and they are not idlers. It shouldn't be a problem to deal with assassins. Let's talk I'm a big man, let my wife and brother protect me, it's not nice to say it, and it's easy to make people laugh."

Liu Yiru pursed his lips and poked the buns with his chopsticks, "Those guards in your house can only be a three-legged cat. If an assassin comes, I'm afraid they can run faster than you, and they can't protect you at all. You don't take them all day long. Do you take yourself seriously, but don't care about other people's feelings?"

Wu Luan nodded knowingly, "Brother, I know you are afraid that I will blow the lamp and pull out the wax, and make your sister a widow..."

Liu Yiru dropped his chopsticks and covered Wu Luan's mouth, "What are you doing talking about this, aren't you cursing yourself?"

The warmth from the palm and the squirming of the lips made Liu Yiru feel in a trance, as if that person was kissing his hand.Liu Yiru's heart was pounding, Jun's face was flushed, and he was a little crazy for a while.

Wu Luan made two "woo hoo" to express his protest, and his eyes rolled around.

Only then did Liu Yiru wake up, he let go of Wu Luan, took a pair of chopsticks and continued to poke the buns in a disguised manner, and said softly, "It's good that you know that your life is not just yours."

Wu Luan was also quite touched, "Brother understands that once this man gets married, he will have a lot of courage on his shoulders. He will not only take care of himself, but also the women behind him and the whole family. Brother, I assure you, he will definitely Take good care of yourself and save your life to marry your sister!"

Seeing that Liu Yiru stopped talking, Wu Luan thought that he had already solved the problem, and said relaxedly, "Brother has some things to do later, so I won't see you off! You go home and ask your parents how you are for your brother. Just say that I will visit the second elder when I have free time."

"One month." Liu Yiru said suddenly.

"What?" Wu Luan's porridge bowl almost fell on her body.

Liu Yiru raised his head from the bun that was poked like a sieve, "I will guard you for a month. After a month, when you are safe and sound, I will leave. I have already made plans. I will go to Kunlun and devote myself to practicing with Master. Martial arts, don't ask about worldly affairs."

"Ah!" Wu Luan jumped up from the chair, "You are going to become a monk and become a veteran! Yiru, did something happen to you? Tell me, and my brother will support you."

Liu Yiru lowered his eyes, "No."

"Really?" Wu Luan didn't believe it, "Then why are you so young that you see through the world of mortals?"

Liu Yiru raised his eyes and looked at Wu Luan, his deep eyes seemed to be a vortex that could absorb people, "It is precisely because he can't see through, that's why we have to get out in time, so as not to sink deeper and deeper, and become unable to control ourselves."

Wu Luan suddenly had two more bodyguards, one light and one dark, and the time limit was one month.Liu Yiru asked the servants of Yushi's Mansion to pack up a few changes of clothes and a few books and send them over. This is the intention of permanent residence.

This made Wu Luan very troubled, not only Yun Jue couldn't go there, even the concubine in the backyard couldn't go there.

There is a person standing under the window outside the house, who is interested in making clouds and rain in the house?Although Wu Luan did a lot of ridiculous things, he still didn't have such a strong heart.

Of course, he would not know that not only under the window, but also on the tree is a spectator who spends no money.

Although Wu Luan thought Liu Yiru was in the way, he could only entertain him with delicious food and drink.From ancient times to the present, the status of mother-in-law and brother-in-law is unmatched, so brother-in-law always has to hold his tail in front of brother-in-law.

Not only the folks are like this, even if they are expensive, they are also the mother clan who value the empress.The Holy One, Li Yu, respected and loved Empress Wu Qingyan very much, so he indulged Wu Luan everywhere.It is reasonable to say that Wu Luan is very suspicious of the assassination of Pingxi King Jiang Xun.He bought the fireworks, but they caused a fire and gave the assassin an opportunity.

If it was someone else, he would have been arrested and sent to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for strict examination.But the Holy One only asked the Ministry of Punishment to strictly investigate private fireworks shops, and Cai Pei from the Ministry of Rites even took the blame for buying fireworks, because the money for buying fireworks was paid from the account of the Ministry of Rites.Cai Pei was demoted three grades in a row and was sent to Funing as the magistrate.

The Ministry of Criminal Justice followed the clues to find out the big boss behind the fireworks workshop.Since the fireworks private workshop has been operating under the eyes of the imperial court for many years, the forces behind it cannot be underestimated.If it weren't for the case of King Pingxi, no one would have dared to find out the backer behind the fireworks workshop.

Now the truth is revealed to the world, the boss behind the scenes is the concubine Sun's mother's family, Sun's elder brother Sun Miao is the general in charge of the Gyeonggi Camp, and there is a weapon bureau in the Gyeonggi Camp, because of Sun Miao's special approval, Some of the gunpowder that was originally used to make firearms flowed into their own private fireworks workshop.

With Sun Miao as the scapegoat, the clueless assassination can be pushed to him.

King Pingxi is a hereditary king of the opposite sex. In order to give an explanation to the world, Sun Miao was deprived of military power and thrown into prison. Sun's family was also implicated, like a building collapsed.The noble concubine, Sun, begged the sage to no avail, so she hanged herself.The palace suppressed the matter, and only said to the outside world that the noble concubine died suddenly of an emergency.

In this way, Wu Luan is not only innocent, but also meritorious.If he hadn't bumped his head into the fireworks workshop, how could he uncover the conspiracy of the Sun family?Although the Holy Majesty did not expressly reward Wu Luan, the rewards flowed into Marquis Wenzhong's mansion like flowing water, and anyone with a discerning eye in the court could see it.

The Jiang family was also in a mess. Several older bastards competed for the hereditary title of King Pingxi. They got into a mess and two of them died.The Holy Majesty was shocked. In order to protect the blood of the Jiang family, the northwest region sent imperial troops into the Northwest region and established the Northwest County. At the same time, the title of Pingxi King was reduced to Pingxi County King, which was inherited by Jiang Xun's ten-year-old son Jiang Kai.

Wu Luan was bored in the capital, and Liu Yiru followed him wherever he went.He excused himself to visit his eldest nephew and ran into the palace.

In the early court, all the ministers unexpectedly saw Wen Zhonghou Wu Luan.You must know that since Wu Luan inherited the title, everyone seldom saw him in the court hall. This is really the sun coming out from the west.What's even more shocking is that Wu Luan came here to ask the Holy One for an errand.

Standing on the court hall, Wu Luan was impassioned, with tears in his eyes, "Your Majesty, there is a saying that 'eat the emperor's salary and share the worries for the emperor'. Although my minister Wu Luan has no ability, but a heart of loyalty to the emperor and the people is as good as the emperor's. There is no difference between civil and military."

It's rare that my brother-in-law is willing to do something serious to share the court's worries, so the Holy Majesty will naturally respond to every request.But Wu Luan's brother-in-law is still very clear about how much he weighs and how much he weighs, and he dare not entrust important matters to him.

It happened that the area around Changzhou City in Hebei had no crops due to the drought last year. After a hard winter, it was no longer able to sustain it this spring. Every household had eaten up their surplus food, and even the turf and tree roots were gone, not to mention the seeds sown this year.The imperial court allocated official food for disaster relief.The Holy Majesty handed over the task of escorting the relief food to Wu Luan.

Wu Luan happily returned to the mansion, and before anyone entered the door, she asked Steward Xue to prepare her luggage, "Prepare everything, and set off early tomorrow morning. The disaster relief cannot be delayed for a moment."

Then he ran to bid farewell to the old lady, "Ancestor, my grandson has grown up, and I have received an errand from the Holy Majesty, and I need to go out for a few days."

Then he told his concubines, "I'm going to do something big! You can rest assured to wait for me in the mansion, and I will bring you back the candied dates and pancakes from Changzhou."

Liu Yiru leaned against the door with folded arms, watching Wu Luan scurrying in and out, bluffing like he had been spat out.

Wu Luan finally jumped in front of Liu Yiru, held his shoulders with both hands, and said sincerely: "The Holy Majesty entrusted my brother with the task of escorting the relief food. He said that no one else would believe such a big event, so I could only reluctantly agree. Brother , your parents see you closely, so don't leave the capital. When you have free time, come to the Hou Mansion to take care of some projects for your brother. That yard will be where your sister and I are newlyweds to live in. Don't be careless. Help me take care of it Take care of the old ancestor, and chat with her old man when you have time. I will entrust you with all the affairs in this house."

Liu Yiru was expressionless, and looked at Wu Luan coldly with a pair of peach eyes, which made Wu Luan feel hairy.He wanted to say a few more words, but just as he opened his mouth, Liu Yiru pointed a finger on his lips, "Hush!".

Wu Luan stood there in a daze as if her voice had been silenced.

Liu Yiru withdrew his hand, took one last look at Wu Luan, turned and left.

Looking at Liu Yiru's straight back, Wu Luan felt bitter in his mouth, as if he had done something wrong.
