Lu Hua Zhi You Feng Lin Lou

The imperial court's use of troops against the King of Han was already a certainty. That day when Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou left the imperial palace, just like what he said, no matter what was going on in the palace, they followed each other around the capital, completely relaxed Spend the days that are still in the festive season, drinking here, listening to the piano there, so relaxed and happy.

After the fifteenth day, the imperial court first sent troops to besiege Le'an, followed by Zhu Gui's personal conquest. There was a confrontation for a while, and the court was awe-inspiring, not daring to have any strange visions.

The emperor left Beijing, and the government affairs of the court were temporarily handled by the cabinet. Huamanshe had no time to worry about Huamanlou these few days, and Hua Erye, who had just returned to Beijing, was also busy in the business field. After the welcome banquet, Huamanlou was busy every day I am free, at this moment, I am eating in the private room on the second floor, which is already surnamed Lu, playing with a newly acquired piano on the table, the sunlight outside casts a warm glow on his body, and his brows and eyes are full of tenderness .

Lu Xiaofeng was sitting opposite him by the window, with a jug of wine in his left hand, while drinking, he listened to him poking it a few times, occasionally interjecting a sentence or two, so comfortable.

After Chen Xiu finished working outside, he opened the door and came in, his heart ached from the warm scene in front of him, he recovered after covering himself, hesitating to go in and sit down for a sip of tea.

"Did that one from the God Detective Division come to your place these few days?" Lu Xiaofeng didn't mind his interruption, she restrained her blunt eyes on Hua Manlou just now, sat upright, and wanted to go get it again The jug poured a glass of wine, remembering that Hua Manlou had just reminded him not to be greedy, touched the jug with his fingers, and turned around to pick up the teapot next to him.

Chen Xiu was surprised by his actions, but he still answered his question first, shaking his head and thinking: "No, I heard that the God Detective Division has been very quiet these days, except for daily work, there is no movement at all."

"Tsk." Lu Xiaofeng sighed as he drank the tasteless but comfortable tea, "If you don't cheer up this bandit, Sikong might really look down on him if he has beautiful women like clouds."

Hua Manlou plucked the strings of the piano, and looked up at him when he heard the words: "You know, whether Sikong will indulge in beautiful women is his business. Or, if it were you, you would choose beautiful women like Ruyun?"

Before Lu Xiaofeng could argue and explain, Chen Xiu had already stared at Hua Manlou with wide-eyed eyes, and almost dropped the teacup in his hand——this, Qi Shao seems to be talking differently, when did the two of them have a different attitude? so intimate?

Hua Manlou noticed his gaze, and paused for a while with the hand holding the piano, but did not avoid it.

Lu Xiaofeng tapped Chen Xiu's hand with his chopsticks—what are you looking at?It's up to you!Then he moved his buttocks, smiled and sat next to Hua Manlou to eat tofu.

Chen Xiu's face darkened, he raised his head and drank his tea in one sip, and when they finished speaking, he remembered his purpose and asked, "Xiu Nu's case was closed with the Mo family, so you don't want to investigate the matter of the Shaoyu Pavilion?" ?"

Speaking of this matter, Lu Xiaofeng's expression was worried. The case of the beautiful girl was complicated. Three parties intervened. After all, justice has not been returned to everyone.Hong Jie had always handled the case impartially, but the matter involved a wide range, so the emperor did not order Shuntian Mansion to undertake the matter, but handed it over to Dali Temple.

Hua Manlou knew that he was unhappy, but as the eldest brother said, in the court, it was not black and white, and this level of concealment of the facts would not be taken seriously by anyone.Except for people like them who are somewhat obsessed with justice.

"And... my brother-in-law." Chen Xiu hesitated for a moment before continuing to ask, "Why is my brother-in-law... all right?" Si didn't even have an investigation at all, and Mu Shuo was also fighting with the army this time. As long as he came back, he would be promoted sooner or later.

Lu Xiaofeng looked Chen Xiu up and down, and asked curiously: "I said, did your grandfather hire you a husband when you were young? Did you only learn how to cook and brew wine, and don't understand any serious things?"

Chen Xiu muffled to defend himself: "My grandfather is an upright official with Xiuwen..." So he didn't bother to teach those shady things.

"What does this have to do with him being an upright official?" Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes at him, "It has to do with your brain."

Hua Manlou had already finished playing a song and was eating a piece of dessert. Hearing this, she spoke for Chen Xiu: "Brother Chen is not out of his mind to make such delicious food, but some People, come here to eat here every day, and are disrespectful to the master..."

Lu Xiaofeng didn't wait for him to finish speaking, already leaned over to play a rascal: "Okay, you spend a lot of money, but you actually scolded me in order to defend him, you should be punished!"

"Where did I say something wrong?" Hua Manlou hid to the side, looking at him amusedly.

Chen Xiu originally came to inquire about the case, seeing the two of them in such a greasy situation, he just felt that the tea he drank today was too sweet, his throat hurt from the sweetness, and he wanted to cough.

"Okay, don't cough anymore." Lu Xiaofeng suddenly remembered the letter from Shuzhong a few days ago, it was from Uncle Yun, saying that Ximen Chuuxue had come to the capital with Yu Xi, and the old man told him in a long-winded manner in the letter If his young master looked after his daughter-in-law, he knew that the two of them probably had some eyebrows, so he couldn't show his affection in front of Chen Xiu anymore, restrained himself in time, and sat back to his original place.

"Do you think that as soon as the King of Han was involved in the case of Xiunu, the little emperor led the army on the fifteenth day, wouldn't it be too soon?" Lu Xiaofeng had a persuasive expression on his face.

Chen Xiu thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "The emperor has long planned to go to Le'an, and the matter of Xiunu is just an excuse!" The matter of Concubine Li is just as the emperor said, so forget it, and other matters of the palace are also It's not easy to put it on the surface, so the name of the emperor's personal conquest this time is still just a matter of the Han king disrupting the emperor's draft, which caused the Tian family to lose its prestige, committing wrongdoing and committing crimes and other trivial things.

After all, the current emperor has been in power for two years, and if the truth of the former emperor's death is revealed, the court will not be able to bear it, and the people will be in an uproar, and the surrounding countries will see all the jokes and covet them again.

"That's right." Lu Xiaofeng got up, looked out the window at the deserted streets these days, and said sadly, "Although we have found out the truth about Xiunu's case this time, and solved the knot between Sikong and Piaowu, the truth It cannot be said that the real culprit cannot be arrested, and there is no longer a high wall between Sikong and Piwu. What's more, there are many years of old cases in the Shaoyu Pavilion, and now there are only clues to a book of life and death that has been destroyed by Hua Haisheng. Not happy at all."

Chen Xiu also sighed and shook his head along with him: "The affairs of the imperial court are already troublesome. Fortunately, I fought to the end, otherwise I would be worried that my hair would have turned gray by now. But who is the real culprit you are talking about? A eunuch in charge died, but the emperor did not issue an order to investigate the matter, so is this case far from over?"

Hua Manlou heard the desolation they said, and said calmly: "All kinds of people in the world naturally have all kinds of thoughts. Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and there will be crimes, but the evil is always overwhelming. Yes, we don’t have to be overly pessimistic, since the other party has made us aware of their existence, sooner or later we will have a chance to face each other, wouldn’t it be better for the soldiers to cover up the water and the earth, why waste time worrying about the sky at this time?”

"Hua Manlou is right!" Lu Daxia was melancholy for a while, turned around, clapped his hands in admiration, and waved his hand again, "Come on, let's go find Robo Wu now, and let's talk about him and Sikong first." Let’s talk about it after we’ve settled it, the foreigner, settle inside first, digest the internal conflicts, no matter what kind of monsters dance around him, when the time comes, kick him back to his hometown!”

Hua Manlou felt that this man was a little drunk, so he stopped him from walking out impassionedly: "I heard from elder brother that the emperor sent someone to protect Sikong before he left, and asked him to go to Xiyueyuan to relax, which is a royal forbidden area. , how do we get in?"

Lu Xiaofeng scratched his chin, this is really difficult, the last time he sneaked into the palace at night was to solve the case, there are reasons and evidences, this time it is to win over Bandit Wu and Sikong, they are justifiable here, but it is a crime that cannot be punished by the emperor .

"Why don't you ask your elder brother?" Chen Xiu likes to watch such things as lovers get married, and he is willing to help. He suggested to Huamanlou.

"My elder brother never talks about political affairs. This time he is entrusted by Hong Shibo to investigate the case for us. I don't think it is possible for him to let us into Xiyue Garden." Hua Manlou shook his head. Although Hua Manshe loved him very much, Issues of principle cannot be overstepped.

"It's easy to handle, we just need to steal a few tokens!" Lu Xiaofeng thought of another way, although Xiyue Garden is a royal garden, some important officials in the court can still enter with tokens.

Hua Manlou thought about the word "stealing" for a while, but in the end it still didn't make up for Lu Xiaofeng and Chen Xiuzuo's collective attack when they said that they would rather tear down a temple than destroy a marriage, and they said that a gentleman has the beauty of an adult, so he agreed to act accordingly.

In the early morning of the next day, Lu Xiaofeng, who had been silent for a few days, was forcibly kidnapped by Lu Xiaofeng from the Chief Catcher, and put Hong Jie's token on him. Hua Manlou and Chen Xiu settled it internally. His elder brother's, one touched his grandfather's, anyway, the token is precious and precious, and it is rare and not lacking.

"Where's yours?" Hua Manlou asked Lu Xiaofeng.Although Piou Wu has the official position of General Huaiyuan of the third rank, his main position is still the chief arrester of the Shuntian Mansion's Shenhun Division, so he does not have a token to enter and exit the royal land.

"Of course it's a thousand weights!" Lu Xiaofeng patted his left waist.The emperor didn't bring Qianzhong with him this time, and left him to guard the palace, so he ran there last night, using the excuse of buying him a drink, and passed on his token.

The token of the Commander of the Imperial Army is no longer suitable for entering and leaving Xiyue Garden.

"You will choose." Hua Manlou and Chen Xiu said in unison.

Bandit Wuchu continued to pretend to be a goalkeeper.

"Let me tell you, when I meet Sikong in a while, you two have something to say in person. This is the only chance. Do you think about staying alone in an empty room and desolate with no one to talk about, or whether you want to hold our cute little monkey in your arms?" , come to play tricks when you are free, and come to add fragrance when you are busy, it depends on how you do the two kinds of days." Lu Xiaofeng has always been angry with Pirates, he is good at everything, but his temper is too stubborn, his mouth is too blunt, Sikong was planted in his hands, so he was destined to be abused in every possible way.

Piao Wu kept a cold face and didn't speak, but grabbed the cuff of his left hand - inside there was the long life lock that Lu Xiaofeng returned to him from Sikong.

Shilipo's momentary hesitation was not because he was reluctant to give up the evidence, but because it was his longevity lock and he could not lose it.

Xiyue Garden is located in the western suburbs of the capital, usually few people come and it is more than quiet. Now that the emperor is not in the middle of the capital, there is no one here. When Lu Xiaofeng and the others came back and forth, the guards were still a little unresponsive.

"Hey, let us in." Lu Xiaofeng waved the token around in front of their eyes, no matter whether they saw it clearly or not, anyway, they had the right to go in.Hua Manlou and Chen Xiuben acted like princes, even though they were a little embarrassed, they wouldn't be able to see it.But Pi Wu is even better, his dark face is almost like writing the words "Don't get close to strangers if I'm broken in love", and the guards put him in with a daze.

I walked in and listened to them chatting behind me. "Who was that person just now? He looked very face-to-face, he didn't look like some little prince..."

Then someone replied: "Whoever he is, doesn't he have a token? Besides, he doesn't look like a bad guy, especially the one with the fan. He is white and good-looking, and he smiles like a fairy. He looks like a precious young master."

. . . . . .

Lu, who was walking side by side with Bandit Wu, paused, moved back, and moved to Huamanlou's side. They were so close together that they almost put a label on Huamanlou's body.

Chen Xiu pinched his crampy face - he couldn't help it, he really wanted to laugh.

After the fifteenth day, the weather gradually warmed up, and today is sunny again, so the scenery in the Xiyue Garden is not bad, the red plums are still there, and the green branches are still there. Very quiet.

All four of them have good hearing, so it is easy to hear the sound of playing by the lake.

Walking through the promenade, a large green lake appeared in front of you. There was a small building in the center of the lake, and there were small cabinets leading to it on each side. The laughter came from inside, and it was unclear how many people were sitting through the curtain. People, but it sounds like there are both men and women, and a certain little monkey laughed the loudest, almost knocking off the roof of the house.

"Take it easy, I'll go and have a look first." Lu Xiaofeng looked at Dao Wu's face covered with frost, feeling very miserable in his heart - it was the first time in his life to be a moon elder, it seemed a bit difficult.

Without saying a word, the robber walked straight onto a small bridge, sweeping away his previous lethargy, exuding the breath of catching prey, his black boots creaked the small bridge, and he had the urge to step on it to vent his anger.

Chen Xiu moved back with the hem of his clothes, he was poor in martial arts, and it was too late to save himself when the bridge collapsed.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou also backed away, and then heard a shrill scream from Xiaozhu, like a small beast whose tail was choked: "Feng Daowu, what are you doing, let me go, I'm now I don't like you anymore, why are you still looking for me? Let me go..."

The three of them watched the stolen Sikong go down the bridge on the other side with his neck in his hands, kicking his limbs indiscriminately, his mouth was twisted into a bruise, and his face was covered with snot and tears. They couldn't help but gasped and looked sympathetic. , There is only one common thought in my heart-too violent.

Robbery is six or seven years older than Sikong. He was brought up by his juniors, and he paid the most attention to his moral education. Those four old men just now were enough for him to be speechless for several days. Seniors, they are so respectable and strict.

"It's going to be okay?" Chen Xiu covered his mouth, really able to do it.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou looked at each other with a smile - beatings are kisses or loves, Pi Wu has been holding back for the past few days, and it's time to explode, one of them is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, they are very compatible.

Pi Wu and Sikong disappeared for a long time, no one knew where they went, but when they appeared in front of people in the afternoon, Sikong's mouth became more swollen, his hair seemed to be tied up again, and his clothes were changed into new ones. I don't know how I was educated.Piou Wu calmed down, and restored his image of a wise and martial chief arrester. While drinking tea contentedly, he talked about the situation of the Le'an war. He was as happy as a big case, and it wasn't him who closed the door and licked his wounds like a big girl a few days ago.

Lu Xiaofeng later asked Sikong why he knew that Piao Wu had let go of his past entanglement, but he refused to take the initiative to find him, instead he was looking for fun in Xiyue Garden.

Lord Pirate King waved his small hand, and he was full of arrogance: "Old, cough, this king is now a little prince, and his status is more noble than him, how can he be trampled under his feet again?"

Lu Xiaofeng bowed again and again: "Yes, my lord, you don't need to be trampled under his feet, you are under his body."

. . . . . .

"Lu Xiaoji, this king is going to kill you!"

. . . . . .

In any case, this year is still very meaningful, whether it is for Lu Xiaofeng and the others, or for the court, because after the bandits and unaccompanied Sikong Zhaixing rushed to Le'an, they did not know what happened between them. What or what agreement was reached, anyway, within ten days, there was a good news back to the capital - the emperor's troops came to Le'an, and the king of Han surrendered the city.

Three days later, the imperial court completely took over Le'an and changed it to Wuding Prefecture.The emperor only deprived the Han king of his throne on the grounds of his affection for his uncle and nephew, and imprisoned him inside the gate of Xi'an.However, Sikong Zhaixing's special status cannot be made known to the world, so Zhu Gui casually gave him the title of saving the country and conferring him the title of Xianyun King, and he accompanied the king to accompany him back to the court.The courtiers and soldiers accompanying the army didn't know when the king was in trouble, and when the little prince was rescued, but they cut down a rebellious prince, made a meritorious prince, and rewarded them twice, they shouted for thousands of years. Kowtow to King Xianyun.

After the army returned to Beijing, Ximen Chuuxue and Yu Xi, who had come to the capital early, also came late. They came with red invitation cards, very red, very red, very dazzling.
