He waved his hands and said, "I'm afraid the clues to the Tianyuan Heyi Sect have been broken. What are your plans next, Young Master? Are you going to send Lord Luo back to Beijing?"
Zhong Li'an shook his head and said: "Let's not go back yet." He glanced at Luo Qingmin's hair and said: "Luo Hou will follow us first."
Fu Bo nodded and said, "Alright."
Seeing that Luo Qingmin's mood hadn't completely stabilized, Zhong Li'an said to Uncle Fu and Xiao Zhu: "I'll take him out for a walk." Then he walked towards the door.
Luo Qingmin followed Zhong Li'an step by step.
After leaving the inn, the street was a bit cold today, Luo Qingyan lowered her head, just like this, pulling Zhong Li'an's sleeves and followed step by step.
After walking for a certain distance, Zhong Li'an said in a deep voice: "Luo Qingmin, you are also a person with a title now, so it's really inappropriate for you to follow me like this."
The court has been undercurrents in recent years. Since his sister is the Ming concubine and their family is a foreign relative, they have been in the court these years like ducks in water. He will definitely face many things when he returns to Beijing. I can protect him for a while, but I can't protect him forever.
Seeing that Luo Qingmin didn't respond, Zhong Li'an stopped, looked at his bowed head and said, "Did you hear what I just said?"
Luo Qingyan nodded, then shook her head again.
Seeing this, Zhong Li'an asked, "Then what do you want?"
Ke Luo Qingmin just lowered her head and remained silent.
"Luo Qingyan." Zhong Li'an called out.
Luo Qingyun looked up, but her eyes were red, and he choked up in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I... I..."
Zhong Li'an lowered his eyes, Luo Qingmin was robbed at the age of ten, and may have been living in darkness all these years, if it were him... I'm afraid he would have been turned into a handful of loess.
Thinking of this, Zhong Li'an patted him on the shoulder and said in a calm tone: "From tomorrow on, you will follow Xiaozhu, and he will teach you martial arts in the future." Although it is too late for Luo Qingyan to start practicing martial arts now, but learn some It can still be used for self-defense.
Luo Qingyan looked up at Zhong Li'an, and nodded.
"Come here! Robbery! Robbery!"
There was a figure running towards him in the distance, and when Zhong Li'an approached him, he moved his body slightly and tapped his acupoints quickly and accurately, but there was a muffled groan from behind, and Luo Qingyan was picked up and taken away.
The four-foot sword came out, and the sword light flashed, and the man softened immediately.He flew to catch Luo Qingxuan before he landed, and released his acupuncture points.Luo Qingyan hugged him tightly, trembling all over because of fear.
"I was careless." Zhong Li'an didn't expect that in broad daylight, someone would try to kidnap someone under him.
"My lord is really skilled!" Someone clapped his hands and came out from the dark place, Zhong Li'an glanced at the person coming, but didn't make a sound.
That person was the purple-clothed man disguised as a woman whom he had met before.He is still dressed in women's purple clothes today, but the style is slightly different from last time.
The man in purple glanced at Luo Qingyan who was in Zhongli'an's arms and said with a smile: "No wonder the young master doesn't like the little girl's willow appearance. It turns out that she is accompanied by a beautiful woman."
Zhong Li'an originally wanted to stretch out his hand to pull Luo Qingmin away, but Luo Qingmin was trembling because of fear, so he had no choice but to let Luo Qingmin hold her.
The man in purple raised his eyebrows, and suddenly he flicked his hands forward, and the two long silks shot towards Zhong Li'an and Luo Qingyan like two poisonous snakes spitting out their letters.
Zhong Lian supported Luo Qingmin's waist, and dodged lightly with his feet, but the long silk flew towards the two of them again nimbly as if he had eyes.
Before the two of them landed, Zhong Lian stepped back a little in the air, lowered his head and said to Luo Qingxuan, "You wait for me here."
Hearing this, Luo Qingyan let go, and nodded obediently.
When the man in purple made a move, there were gusts of sinister wind howling, he must have practiced some kind of evil skill.
I am not afraid of this evil wind, but Luo Qingmin's body is weak, if he is exposed to such evil wind, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it.
The two long silks entangled with each other and attacked Zhongli'an, Zhongli'an held the sword and flew to meet him with the tip of the sword facing each other. After touching the sword tip, the long silk turned into two paths and tried to wrap around Zhongli'an.
I saw Zhong Li spinning upwards, and then plummeting down in the air, his hands were extremely fast, with one sword and three blows, as fast as thunder and lightning, so fast that the man in purple couldn't even see the phantom clearly!
The man in purple immediately retracted the long silk and attacked Zhong Li'an who was diving down, but in the blink of an eye, the long silk in his hand was reduced to pieces!He quickly retreated!
Zhong Li'an hesitated, the hand holding the sword turned slightly, and the tip of the sword was deflected, from the position of the heart to the shoulder of the purple-clothed man.
With a muffled groan, the long sword pierced through the right shoulder of the man in purple. The man in purple raised his hand to give Zhong Li'an a palm, but Zhong Li'an raised his palm to meet him. The man in purple instantly spit blood and flew out.
Zhong Li retracted his sword, turned around and walked towards Luo Qingmin, the man in purple struggled to raise his hand, and shot an arrow in his sleeve towards Luo Qingmin's position.
Zhong Li'an didn't pay attention to the little tricks of the man in purple clothes, but Luo Qing didn't know it, he saw that the man raised his hand as if to attack Zhong Li'an, and Zhong Li'an turned his back to the man, so Luo Qing suddenly snapped at him in desperation. Pushing Zhong Li'an away, the arrow in his sleeve pierced Luo Qingyan's abdomen.
Luo Qingyan tried hard not to make herself look so painful, he was afraid that Zhong Li'an would dislike him, so he tried his best to smile at him.
Zhong Li'an raised his hand and slapped the man in purple where he landed, but someone rescued him.
Zhong Li'an immediately picked up Luo Qingmin, tapped a few acupuncture points next to the wound, and went back to the inn after a few ups and downs.
"Uncle Fu! Hurry up! Luo Qingmin is injured!"
People come before they come.
"What's the matter?" Fu Bo and Xiao Zhu hurriedly put down what they were doing and rushed over when they heard Zhong Li'an's voice.
Zhong Li'an put the person on the couch, and Luo Qing's face had already lost a trace of blood.Seeing that he couldn't help trembling all over despite the pain, but still said that he was fine, Zhong Li'an felt a ripple in his heart.
It seems...someone has done such a stupid thing before.
He stroked Luo Qingmin's forehead and said: "It's okay, Uncle Fu is very skilled in medicine, and you will get better soon."
Luo Qingyan nodded slowly, and let go of the hand that had been holding onto Zhongli'an's shirt.
Uncle Fu used scissors to cut off the clothes near Luo Qingmin's wound, checked the wound, and then handed Luo Qingmin a piece of cotton cloth to bite, but Luo Qingmin refused.
Seeing that Uncle Fu didn't force him any more, Xiao Zhu handed Uncle Fu the knife that Uncle Fu had asked him to put on the candle for a while, and Uncle Fu began to treat the wound. He said: "The arrow in this sleeve is not only poisonous but also has barbs. Fortunately, the injury is not deep and the toxicity is not strong, it will hurt for a while, and you can't help but bite the cotton pad."
Luo Qingyan nodded with difficulty.
Uncle Fu took the arrow while chatting with Luo Qingmin, alleviating Luo Qingmin's tension.
After the arrowhead was taken out, Luo Qingmin cleaned the wound, applied medicine, and finally only had to bandage it.
Ke Luoqing was desperately unwilling to take off her clothes.
Uncle Fu looked at Zhong Li'an, Zhong Li'an took the gauze and said, "I'll do it."
Uncle Fu nodded and led Xiao Zhu back out.
Seeing that he and Luo Qing were the only ones left alone, Zhong Li'an said, "The clothes are ruined anyway, so let's cut them up. I'll just cut it once, so that it can be wrapped with gauze."
Luo Qingyun struggled to get up, Zhong Li'an pressed his shoulder and said: "Don't move around, the wound should hurt after a while."
Luo Qingyan stopped moving after hearing the words, he bit his lower lip and said, "I'm sorry..."
Zhong Li'an said helplessly: "Why do you always like to say I'm sorry? You didn't apologize to anyone, but I have to thank you."
"Really...really?"
His eyes were full of hope, Zhong Li'an nodded and said, "En."
Luo Qingyan was very happy, as if the wounds on his body didn't hurt anymore, he smiled and showed his white teeth.
Zhong Li'an helped Luo Qingmin up, cut off a section of his clothes at the waist and abdomen, and then carefully wrapped gauze around him, trying not to touch him.
The hickey marks on Luo Qingxuan's body have faded, leaving only shocking scars.After wrapping up the gauze, Zhongli'an supported Luo Qingmin's back and let him lie back down. He lowered his eyes: "You should rest well these few days, and I will change your medicine on time."
"En." He pulled the thin quilt to cover his hot body, as if the temperature of Zhong Lian's fingers was still on his waist.
Chapter 026 Trees without bark will surely die
In the past few days, Xiao Zhu has been in charge of Luo Qingmin's daily life, but Zhong Li'an has never visited Luo Qingmin at other times except when she would show up when changing her dressing.
This day, Xiaozhu brought the porridge and side dishes that had been cooked, helped Luo Qingmin up, put a soft pillow on his back, and then put the vegetables in a bowl and handed them to him.
After thanking Luo Qingyan, she scooped up a spoonful and blew on Xiao Xu, then slowly started to eat.
The two were speechless, and after eating, Xiaozhu took away the bowls, chopsticks and plates, Luo Qing frowned, but finally failed to speak.
Later, his wound was slowly healing, and he could apply the medicine by himself, and Zhong Li'an never appeared again.
Afterwards, Xiao Zhu didn't show up anymore, only he and Uncle Fu lived in the courtyard that had just moved here.
When Uncle Fu was free, he studied pharmacology and read some medical books, and Luo Qingmin followed suit. Some parts were difficult to understand, so he memorized them one by one.
Luo Qingyan's handwriting is not pretty, but it is quite satisfactory.
Forbe saw it, but didn't speak.
After a month without communication between the two, Zhong Li'an and Xiao Zhu came back.
Overjoyed, Luo Qingyun rushed to hug Zhong Li'an's waist, and Zhong Li'an raised his hand to stroke the top of his hair.
"Haha! Everyone! Do you miss me!"
The few people who had just stood still looked towards the gate of the courtyard, and saw Han Dougeng appearing at the gate of the courtyard with a jump.
Uncle Fu raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, sir, you're back in style?"
Han Dougeng covered his lips: "Ahem, according to what you said, old man, I will definitely come back. I am so sorry for everyone." He glanced over several people in the courtyard one by one, and felt that something was wrong.
He looked around again, finally fixed on Luo Qingmin and said: "This person looks familiar." He squinted his eyes as if trying to see more clearly, and suddenly he clapped his palm and said, "Luohou!"
Luo Qingyan buried her face in Zhongli'an's arms, Han Dugeng frowned and pulled him forward, "What are you doing holding my elder brother!"
Luo Qingyan was pulled out, his face flushed red, "I..."
Han Dougeng said again: "Is the eldest brother anyone can hug? I don't know the rules."
Zhong Li'an shook his head helplessly, Xiaozhu said: "Where have you been for more than a month?"
"Ah? Me?" Han Dougeng pointed to himself and said, "I'm going to investigate the matter of the unity of Tianyuan! Let me tell you, I found a very important piece of news!"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he lowered his voice and continued: "Tian Yuan He Yi Sect, they are secretly colluding with the hidden guards in the palace."
Zhong Li'an frowned and said, "Is there any evidence?"
"Of course!" He said as he took out a token from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Li'an, "The code is engraved on the front of the token, and the dragon and phoenix are embossed on the reverse. It's nothing special, isn't it? Hey! Here comes the important point ! Brother, look!"
As Han Dougeng spoke, he turned the token upside down, and the picture of dragon and phoenix showing prosperity just now changed into the word Tianhong.
Xiaozhu said: "No one has ever seen the Royal Secret Guards, how do you know this is their token? Besides, the two characters "Dragon and Phoenix Showing Prosperity" and "Tianhong" are not exclusive to the palace, maybe they are the secret guards of some minister's family? "
Han Dougeng proudly said: "My father told me that this is the exclusive token of the hidden guards in the palace."
"your dad?"
Han Dougeng was taken aback and quickly shut up.
Several people saw this and didn't ask any more questions, but their hearts were turbulent. If it is true that the Tianyuan Unity Sect is related to the royal family as Han Dougeng said, then this matter will be difficult.
"Han Dougeng, how did you get this token?" Zhong Li'an asked.
It's not that he doesn't believe in Han Dougeng, it's just that he is afraid that Han Dougeng has fallen into someone else's trap.
"I know I told you that maybe you don't believe me, but I picked it up by chance."
Zhong Li'an frowned deeply: "Finding leaks?"
"Didn't I go to investigate the matter of the Tianyuan Heyi Sect? I did find out some information. It turns out that Qimen also intervened in this matter."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Han Dougeng nodded in satisfaction.
"Don't be foolish, tell me quickly." Xiaozhu urged.
Han Dougeng rolled his eyes at Xiaozhu and said: "When I found out that they were sneaking in a hidden foothold, I happened to see a person fighting with them, but he left after cleaning up the group of people, just let me catch the leak, hehe. "
Uncle Fu asked suspiciously, "A Qimen man?"
"Yeah, although he is wearing a bamboo hat with curtains hanging from the side of the hat, and he doesn't wear Qimen's clothes. But I feel that he is from Qimen, otherwise anyone who can play a tune can make people kill each other .”
"What did you say? Playing a tune can make people kill each other?" Fu Bo was startled for a moment, and then looked at Zhong Li'an.
Zhong Li'an said to Uncle Fu: "Soul control."
Uncertainly, Uncle Fu said: "The forbidden art soul control should be lost. Thinking back to the peak of martial arts, there were only two people who knew this art in the world. Later, these two people were killed by people from all corners of the country. No one will use it anymore, it should be controlled by drugs. Huh? Han Dougeng, how did you survive?"
Han Dougeng shook his head: "I don't know."
Zhong Li'an said: "I don't think it was caused by simple drug control in the beast hunt last autumn. Maybe the forbidden technique of soul control has not been lost."
Uncle Fu stared: "Is it the time when Young Master was in danger during the autumn hunt last time? It's so dangerous! Why didn't you tell us!"
"I'm fine, and speaking out will only increase worry."
"You, hey." Uncle Fu sighed and continued, "Let's not talk about this matter, just talk about the token. The hidden guards in the palace only obey the orders of the Holy Majesty. If Han Dougeng's clue is true, then this We'd better let it go."
Several people did not make a sound, Han Dougeng disagreed: "How can we let it go like this?! How can those dead people rest in peace! What should those kidnapped and deceived people do?"
Fu Bo said: "Is there any king in the world, and eating the king's salary and being loyal to the king is what a minister and the people should do."
"I really misunderstood you!" Han Dougeng was angry, "Eat the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor? What we eat is the hard work of our own hands! We are loyal to the court, not to the faint and tyrant! I think you are just greedy for life and afraid of death." That’s all! Count me as Han Dougeng blindly following the wrong person!!!”
He roared angrily and turned around to leave.Zhong Li'an stopped Xiao Zhu who was going forward to argue, but saw Luo Qingmin looking up at him, then he pointed at Han Dugeng angrily and said, "I think you are a reckless man!"
Han Dougeng seemed to have heard a big joke, he turned around angrily and pointed at himself in disbelief: "I'm a reckless man? You short chicken, you say I'm a reckless man?"
"You are the short chicken! There is nothing wrong with eating the king's salary and worrying about the king's worries! Hard work? Where do you go to work if you have no country and no king? You have your way of life, and the old man naturally has his thoughts and ideas. Worried. Besides, before your elder brother spoke, you started to jump, you are not a reckless man!" Luo Qingyun stared at Han Dougeng after finishing speaking.
When he heard someone say that Zhong Li'an was wrong, he panicked. Luo Qingyu hadn't said that much in the past few years, so he was short of breath for a while.
Han Dougeng pointed at Luo Qingmin angrily: "Smart teeth! I think you just want to climb his bed because of your pretty face!"
With a 'pop', everything stopped silently.
Zhongli'an pulled Luo Qingmin over. He raised his hand and slapped Han Dougeng, then stood in front of him and said condescendingly, "The eighth rule of the Zhong family's family: gossip and slander others, you will be punished with fifty lashes. Although you and I have done so before Brothers match each other, but I will let you go for the sake of not entering my Zhonglimen residence. This slap, I will slap you for Luohou."
Han Dougeng covered his face, the ups and downs of his chest showed his anger, he turned and walked away quickly.
Zhong Li'an walked to the stone table and sat down to meditate, the atmosphere was very stagnant for a while.
Luo Qingyan came out with a teapot and teacup and made a cup for each of them, then stood behind Zhongli'an and waited.
Uncle Fu looked at Luo Qingmin, wanting to see Zhong Li'an through him.
Leaving aside the issue of tokens, Han Dougeng's words did seem angry at first, but they were not unreasonable.They have been getting along for more than a month, and Luo Qingmin's heart is pure, it is easy to see that he has a different heart for Zhong Li'an.
It would be fine if Luo Qingmin was a woman, and she would be given a status when she entered the mansion, but he is not, and he is still a person with status and title.
The emperor's thoughts are unpredictable, no matter who the General's Mansion is involved with, it will attract suspicion, and Li An will not know at this point.
Looking at Zhong Li'an again, it seems that he does not reject "intimacy" with Luo Qingmin, even if it is His Royal Highness and the Princess, Zhong Li'an has always kept a distance, could it be...
Fu Bo stopped imagining, he said tentatively: "Master?"
Zhong Li'an looked up: "Huh? What's wrong, Uncle Fu."
"I bought some red beans yesterday, do you want some pastries?"
Zhong Li'an calmed down and said: "Then I will trouble Uncle Fu."
Uncle Fu went to the back kitchen, and Luo Qingmin followed after a while.Not only him, even Han Dougeng came over.
Uncle Fu glanced at Han Dougeng and said: "Hey, look who this is, oh yes, this is not the majestic Han Dougeng, Master Han, what is the trouble with Master Han?"
"Ahem, old man, I was wrong." Han Dougeng bowed his head.
Uncle Fu raised his eyebrows: "Just kidding, what's wrong with Mr. Han?"
"Old man, I was wrong, I was really wrong, you don't remember villains, please forgive me this time."
Uncle Fu ignored him and started to prepare for making red bean cakes, and Luo Qingyan didn't say a word.
Han Dougeng was laughing, Uncle Fu wanted to fetch water, so he hurried up, Uncle Fu wanted to meet, so he came forward again, Uncle Fu wanted to light a fire, so he also rushed forward.
Fu Bo got annoyed, hit his acupuncture points and threw him out of the hospital.
At night, when Zhong Li'an returned to his room, he noticed something strange on his couch, so he frowned and went to the side of the couch to lift the quilt, only to see Han Dougeng lying there with his shirt on and his head uncovered.
When Han Dougeng saw Zhong Li'an coming over, he immediately smiled and said, "Brother, I will warm your bed."
Zhong Li'an said calmly, "Come down."
Han Dougeng shook his head and moved in, then patted the empty space next to him and said, "Brother, come up quickly."
Since childhood, Zhong Li'an didn't like others to sleep with him, not even light, let alone others.
Seeing him sullenly said: "I'll ask again for the last time, you go down, or you don't go down."
Han Dougeng shook his head.
Zhong Li'an wrapped up all the quilts together with Han Dougeng, and put them outside the hospital.
Han Dougeng quickly shouted, "Big brother, big brother!"
Xiaozhu rushed out when he heard the sound, and said to him, "Han Dougeng, do you want to be invincible?"
"Ah? Second brother, what did you say?"
"Oh, you don't know?" Xiao Zhu sneered, "If a tree doesn't need bark, it will surely die. You are shameless, you are truly invincible!"
027 Chapter Embroidery Building 1
Han Dougeng beat his chest and stomped his feet, thinking that he was smart all his life, he was actually confused for a while!
His short temper is like a firework, how can he listen to what other people say!
He didn't care about the consequences yesterday, but today he has to bear the consequences. Han Dougeng followed behind them with his head down.
Suddenly, he raised his head and said, "Brother, why didn't you bring your righteous brother out this time?"
Uncle Fu and Xiaozhu on the carriage froze, and Han Dougeng said again: "I remember that he seems... um... he is about the same height as Luo Hou, and his figure is also about the same."
Zhong Li'an, who was riding on the horse, lowered his eyes and said, "He died in battle."
Han Dougeng was surprised and said: "Ah? Then why is there no news from the outside world! I wonder why the big brother treats Luohou differently, so that's how it is."
Zhong Li'an said lightly: "Han Dougeng, you have exceeded the rules."
"Oh oh oh, I'm sorry big brother. Huh? Big brother, you ignored me! Did you forgive me?! Hehehe."
Except for Luo Qingmin and Fu Bo sitting in the carriage, Xiao Zhu drove the carriage, while Han Dugeng and Zhong Li'an rode forward on horseback.
Han Dougeng's words awakened Uncle Fu, he secretly looked at Luo Qingmin, indeed, his figure was very similar to that of Zhong Li'an's Yidi.
According to this, Han Dougeng also has the shadow of Zhong Li'an's Yidi brother in him - talkative, thick-skinned.
After all, they are also brothers who have been together for more than ten years. Even if they want to forget, it will not happen overnight.
"We're going to Pingjiang soon." Zhong Li'an sat on the horse and looked in front of him and said.
Uncle Fu leaned out from the carriage and said, "My lord, can we go to Hanshan Temple after entering Pingjiang?"
"En." Zhong Li'an nodded.
According to legend, Hanshan and Shide, the poet monks, came to this temple from Tiantai Mountain in Zhijiang, and Hanshan and Shide were also abbots here, so the temple is called Hanshan Temple, and many literati have left calligraphy treasures there.
When you come to Gusu to see you, everyone sleeps on the river; the ancient palace has little idle land, and there are many water lanes and small bridges.
Pingjiang is a beautiful and graceful small town, with small bridges and flowing water everywhere, people live by the water, and there are various small stone bridges on the water.
The serenity and elegance of Pingjiang is completely different from the grand atmosphere of Beijing, Zhong Lian secretly sighed in his heart, if there is a chance in the future, he also wants to live here for a long time, playing with silk and bamboo for the rest of his life.
"I came to Pingjiang with your grandfather a few times before." Uncle Fu looked around and smiled.
It's just that now...things have changed.
Zhong Li'an's grandfather passed away before Zhong Li'an was born, so Zhong Li'an's impression of his grandfather was only from other people's mouth occasionally.
"When your grandfather was young, he was also a famous handsome man in the capital. He was just as courageous and resourceful as you, but his martial arts were not as good as yours. Back then, girls who wanted to marry him could line up from the east to the west of the city. Hey... ...If only he had your skills back then."
This was the first time Zhong Li'an heard about his grandfather from Uncle Fu.Usually, his family members, including his own parents, rarely mentioned his grandfather, so Zhong Li'an didn't have much impression of his grandfather, he only knew that his grandfather was framed and died on the battlefield.He was about to ask a few questions about his grandfather, when suddenly there was a bustling scene in front of him.
Han Dougeng jumped up and disappeared, Zhong Li'an stepped forward, Luo Qingmin and Uncle Fu got out of the carriage.
Soon Han Dougeng got out from the crowd, and he said to several people: "A large family here is marrying a daughter, and the hydrangea ball will be thrown soon! Whoever grabs it will marry him! I heard that his daughter is as beautiful as a fairy, hehe, brother , go grab the hydrangea! I'm looking at the horse."
"Nonsense, let's go." Zhong Li'an adjusted his direction and was about to leave, but saw the hydrangea falling directly into his arms.
Obviously his back is facing the embroidery building, how could the hydrangea fall on him?He raised his hand without thinking, and the hydrangea rolled down, and a group of people rushed to loot it.
Upstairs, a graceful woman covered with a veil looked at Zhong Li'an with a cold look in her eyes.
The Zhong family has several footholds in Pingjiang, and there are quite a few restaurants.Uncle Fu led a few people to the place where they would live in these days, and after they settled down, he led them to the storefront of the building in the center.
Here in Pingjiang is an old man who is more than seventy years old. When the old man saw Uncle Fu and Zhong Li'an, he respectfully saluted Zhong Li'an, then patted Uncle Fu on the shoulder excitedly and said, "It's good that you are all right." , it’s fine.”
"Old man, do you know the embroidered building beside the Fusang Bridge in Hexi..."
Before Han Dougeng finished asking, the old man looked at him and said, "This is..."
Han Dougeng patted his chest and said: "My surname is Han and my name is Dougeng. I am the one on the left arm and right arm of the elder brother!"
Xiaozhu gave him a blank look, Uncle Fu said: "I met him on the road, so I brought him here."
Han Dougeng looked at Zhong Li'an, but seeing that Zhong Li'an didn't speak, his expression darkened immediately, and he raised his head wearily, secretly sad.
Zhong Li'an was silent for a moment and said: "Seeing that he has some abilities, I took him with me. His surname is Han and his name is Dou Geng."
Han Dougeng raised his head when he heard the words, with tears in his eyes, he pulled up Zhong Li'an's sleeve and wiped it: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
A black line was drawn across the faces of several people, this Han Dougeng's face-changing skill is really amazing.
The old man stroked his beard and said, "You just asked that embroidered building, is this one also throwing hydrangea balls?"
Han Dougeng was puzzled: "Yeah? Old man, has this hydrangea been thrown for a few days?"
"you do not say."
"Then... have you never thrown it away or..."
The old man shook his beard and said, "Hey, someone has to live to the next day after picking it up."
Several people frowned at the same time, Fu Bo said: "What's the matter? Kefu is still blooming?"
The old man nodded: "Isn't it!"
"Then why are there so many people grabbing the hydrangea?" Han Dougeng asked puzzled.
Old man: "You don't understand. With their family's financial resources, ordinary people don't have to struggle for the rest of their lives. Besides, his daughter is beautiful, and everyone thinks that their fate will not be overcome. die."
Zhong Li'an asked: "How many people have been restrained to death so far?"
"Six."
"It's okay, okay! Fortunately, the elder brother threw away the hydrangea." Han Dougeng said with a look of fear.
The old man was taken aback: "Did you catch the hydrangea?"
Zhong Li'an explained: "I don't know what happened. I just turned around to leave when the hydrangea fell into my hand."
"Too bad, I'm afraid the young master will be hated by others."
Zhong Li'an's expression was flat: "Probably not."
"My lord doesn't know, that girl is not from Tianhong, but she was picked up and raised by that family in Hexi when she was young. She has a ruthless personality, and anyone who offends her will never end well."
"It's a trivial matter, I just have some doubts about how those men were killed."
The old man frowned and said, "Some said that the night of the bridal chamber had a sudden attack of illness, some said that he fell to his death accidentally from upstairs, and some said that he died of excitement after marrying such a beautiful daughter-in-law. In short, no one saw it with his own eyes. Pass."
"Where's the corpse?"
"There is a dead body, but no one has seen it clearly, and every time the top of the hair is exposed."
After listening, several people bowed their heads thoughtfully, Han Dougeng looked up at the old man and said, "Then you don't care about it, old man?"
"Care?" The old man stroked his beard again and said, "To deal with people, you must first understand your own position, and then be clear about your responsibilities. Since I have sworn to be loyal to the Zhong family, the Zhong family is behind me. Naturally, I don't want to." You will be nosy, and naturally you will not take the initiative to cause trouble. You are the same, because once you cause trouble, you will cause trouble for the Zhong family. "
Han Dougeng nodded thoughtfully, but the eldest brother is indeed the general!
Zhong Li'an said: "It's just that I'm incompetent, and my ancestors are in the dark."
"My lord, don't say that, if it wasn't for the emperor..."
"Cough cough!"
Uncle Fu coughed, and the old man also knew that he was too excited, so he immediately changed his words: "Young master is the first time to come to Pingjiang, so you need to play more."
"En." Zhong Li'an nodded.
There was a humming sound from behind, and several people turned their attention to the prestige, and saw Han Dougeng standing there covering his face and crying.
"Han Dougeng?" Zhong Li'an called out.
"Woooooo..." Han Dougeng stepped forward quickly and grabbed Zhong Li'an's arm, but he cried even louder.
The old man looked at Han Dougeng puzzledly, "This..."
"Brother...I'm happy..." Han Dougeng choked up.
Xiaozhu pulled Han Dougeng away, and Han Dougeng hugged Xiaozhu's arm to wipe his nose and tears.
"It's almost enough, don't embarrass big brother." It was rare that Xiao Zhu didn't show any disgust.
Fu Bo said: "Then... let's adjust and rest today, how about discussing tomorrow if there is something to do?"
Zhong Li'an nodded, and said: "We have quite a few properties in various places in Pingjiang. Then you go out to relax by yourself, just remember to come back."
"No!" Uncle Fu objected, "People with evil intentions may be staring at us somewhere, if we disperse, wouldn't it be playing into their hands?"
"Uncle Fu, I want to breathe by myself." Zhong Li'an answered truthfully.
Several people were stunned.
Indeed, Zhong Li'an has burdened too many things, his parents passed away, his brother-in-law wanted to put him to death, the Holy Majesty suppressed him, and he had to beware of offended people and spies from other countries.
He... can't breathe...
Uncle Fu nodded: "Well, be careful yourself, we are right here, you can find us when you come back."
"Thank you Uncle Fu." Zhong Li'an thanked.
"This silly boy..."
That's right, he's only seventeen... he's young and frivolous, but he's calmer than many old people who have been officials for many years.
They went back to the room that Uncle Fu had arranged for them, Luo Qingmin did not go to look for Zhong Li'an, and Han Dougeng also stayed in his room honestly and did not come out.
Zhong Li'an heaved a sigh of relief, turned over from the window and went to the street.
He touched the newly purchased diaper on his face, and then came to the Hexi Embroidery Building alone.
At this time, there was no one in front of the embroidery building, but the inside of the embroidery building was extremely lively.
Zhong Li'an walked towards the embroidered building, but saw a sneaky figure, he followed quickly, but the figure suddenly disappeared.
He couldn't find that person on the left or right, so Zhong Li'an stopped looking for him.
Suddenly, a melodious sound of the flute came to mind, and it was the same tune that Zhong Lian heard when he was fishing that time.
Thinking that maybe the fake Luo Qingmin also came to Pingjiang, Zhong Li'an frowned and went back to the embroidery building.
028 Chapter Embroidery Building 2
Zhong Li'an sneaked in and quietly remembered the layout of the embroidery building inside and outside, and only waited for the night to find out.
When night fell as promised, Zhong Li'an counted the time, turned around and went to the bride's bridal chamber to hide.
On the wedding night, the red tents and candles in the bridal chamber were festive, but Zhong Li'an felt that the place was weird and eerie.It stands to reason that the bride should sit on the couch and wait for the groom, but Zhong Li'an saw that there was no one there.
Just as he was thinking about it, the door was kicked open with a bang, and the bridegroom swayed in with the help of the bride and the drunken groom.
The bride helped the man to the side of the couch, threw him on the couch, and then patted her arm. The disgusted look in her eyes was not the way she treated her husband.
She took off her wedding dress and removed her hair accessories, then came to the couch expressionlessly and stared at the unconscious man on the couch.
"Useless things, this little wine will not work!"
After she said that, she stretched out her hand to the head of the bed. There was an inconspicuous little red bead on the head of the bed. When she pressed it lightly, the bed immediately sunk down quickly.
Zhong Li'an frowned, and soon after the woman also jumped down, he followed.
This tunnel is very long, without a trace of light, and very damp.Zhong Li'an cautiously groped forward, and after walking for a certain distance, there was a faint light ahead, Zhong Li'an searched for the light and moved forward quickly.
The smell of blood became stronger the further you went in, there was a fork in front, Zhong Li'an carefully identified it and walked to the left.But after walking a certain distance, the front had come to an end, Zhong Li'an found a stone room in front of him, he waited quietly for a while, only to see a puddle of blood flowing out from under the stone door!
Suddenly there was a bang, and the passage Zhong Li'an had just arrived was blocked.
It should be that his whereabouts have been exposed, but he has been very cautious all the way, and he really doesn't understand where there is a mistake.
At this time, there was a strange noise from the top of the tunnel, Zhong Li'an looked at the top of the tunnel, suddenly countless small holes opened on the top and many poisonous substances fell down!
Zhong Li'an immediately drew his sword and killed all the poisonous things, but he didn't expect that there would be bursts of poisonous gas coming out of these poisonous things after they died!
The small hole on the top had already been closed, Zhong Li'an swung up, and raised his sword to split the top, but unexpectedly, another poison fell down.He turned his eyes to the stone door, raised his hand and slapped the stone door, the stone door shattered, and a disgusting evil wind rushed over his face.
In the middle of the stone room is a pool of blood!And above the blood pool, there are countless corpses hanging!Some corpses are still bleeding!
On the side of the blood pool, a woman was bathing in the blood pool with bare hands. She was not surprised to see Zhong Li'an, but raised her red lips and said lightly, "Master, do you want to come down and play together?"
The poison that fell from here all hit Zhongli'an, Zhongli'an saw the right time and lightly landed on a clean place, and all the poison fell into the pool of blood.But instead of being afraid, the woman laughed.
Zhong Li'an untied the corpse that was hanging above the blood pool closest to him. This person was no longer breathing, and the pulse at the side of his neck had stopped beating.
"Young master, come down to accompany the slave family~"
The woman's voice was bewitching, she got up and walked out of the pool of blood towards Zhongli'an step by step.The round breasts trembled slightly with the steps, the soft and slender waist twisted like a water snake, and the straight white and tender long legs.
There are still blood beads on her body that haven't slipped off, she looks like a coquettish enchantress, but also like a ghost from hell.
This kind of scenery, if any man sees it, his blood will rush and his heart will beat faster.
Zhong Li'an quickly slapped the woman, but the woman jumped up and ran away.
"Young master is so cruel. The slave family just wants the son to accompany the slave family, but the young master wants to kill the slave family."
The woman blew a whistle as she said, Chi
Zhong Li'an shook his head and said: "Let's not go back yet." He glanced at Luo Qingmin's hair and said: "Luo Hou will follow us first."
Fu Bo nodded and said, "Alright."
Seeing that Luo Qingmin's mood hadn't completely stabilized, Zhong Li'an said to Uncle Fu and Xiao Zhu: "I'll take him out for a walk." Then he walked towards the door.
Luo Qingmin followed Zhong Li'an step by step.
After leaving the inn, the street was a bit cold today, Luo Qingyan lowered her head, just like this, pulling Zhong Li'an's sleeves and followed step by step.
After walking for a certain distance, Zhong Li'an said in a deep voice: "Luo Qingmin, you are also a person with a title now, so it's really inappropriate for you to follow me like this."
The court has been undercurrents in recent years. Since his sister is the Ming concubine and their family is a foreign relative, they have been in the court these years like ducks in water. He will definitely face many things when he returns to Beijing. I can protect him for a while, but I can't protect him forever.
Seeing that Luo Qingmin didn't respond, Zhong Li'an stopped, looked at his bowed head and said, "Did you hear what I just said?"
Luo Qingyan nodded, then shook her head again.
Seeing this, Zhong Li'an asked, "Then what do you want?"
Ke Luo Qingmin just lowered her head and remained silent.
"Luo Qingyan." Zhong Li'an called out.
Luo Qingyun looked up, but her eyes were red, and he choked up in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I... I..."
Zhong Li'an lowered his eyes, Luo Qingmin was robbed at the age of ten, and may have been living in darkness all these years, if it were him... I'm afraid he would have been turned into a handful of loess.
Thinking of this, Zhong Li'an patted him on the shoulder and said in a calm tone: "From tomorrow on, you will follow Xiaozhu, and he will teach you martial arts in the future." Although it is too late for Luo Qingyan to start practicing martial arts now, but learn some It can still be used for self-defense.
Luo Qingyan looked up at Zhong Li'an, and nodded.
"Come here! Robbery! Robbery!"
There was a figure running towards him in the distance, and when Zhong Li'an approached him, he moved his body slightly and tapped his acupoints quickly and accurately, but there was a muffled groan from behind, and Luo Qingyan was picked up and taken away.
The four-foot sword came out, and the sword light flashed, and the man softened immediately.He flew to catch Luo Qingxuan before he landed, and released his acupuncture points.Luo Qingyan hugged him tightly, trembling all over because of fear.
"I was careless." Zhong Li'an didn't expect that in broad daylight, someone would try to kidnap someone under him.
"My lord is really skilled!" Someone clapped his hands and came out from the dark place, Zhong Li'an glanced at the person coming, but didn't make a sound.
That person was the purple-clothed man disguised as a woman whom he had met before.He is still dressed in women's purple clothes today, but the style is slightly different from last time.
The man in purple glanced at Luo Qingyan who was in Zhongli'an's arms and said with a smile: "No wonder the young master doesn't like the little girl's willow appearance. It turns out that she is accompanied by a beautiful woman."
Zhong Li'an originally wanted to stretch out his hand to pull Luo Qingmin away, but Luo Qingmin was trembling because of fear, so he had no choice but to let Luo Qingmin hold her.
The man in purple raised his eyebrows, and suddenly he flicked his hands forward, and the two long silks shot towards Zhong Li'an and Luo Qingyan like two poisonous snakes spitting out their letters.
Zhong Lian supported Luo Qingmin's waist, and dodged lightly with his feet, but the long silk flew towards the two of them again nimbly as if he had eyes.
Before the two of them landed, Zhong Lian stepped back a little in the air, lowered his head and said to Luo Qingxuan, "You wait for me here."
Hearing this, Luo Qingyan let go, and nodded obediently.
When the man in purple made a move, there were gusts of sinister wind howling, he must have practiced some kind of evil skill.
I am not afraid of this evil wind, but Luo Qingmin's body is weak, if he is exposed to such evil wind, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it.
The two long silks entangled with each other and attacked Zhongli'an, Zhongli'an held the sword and flew to meet him with the tip of the sword facing each other. After touching the sword tip, the long silk turned into two paths and tried to wrap around Zhongli'an.
I saw Zhong Li spinning upwards, and then plummeting down in the air, his hands were extremely fast, with one sword and three blows, as fast as thunder and lightning, so fast that the man in purple couldn't even see the phantom clearly!
The man in purple immediately retracted the long silk and attacked Zhong Li'an who was diving down, but in the blink of an eye, the long silk in his hand was reduced to pieces!He quickly retreated!
Zhong Li'an hesitated, the hand holding the sword turned slightly, and the tip of the sword was deflected, from the position of the heart to the shoulder of the purple-clothed man.
With a muffled groan, the long sword pierced through the right shoulder of the man in purple. The man in purple raised his hand to give Zhong Li'an a palm, but Zhong Li'an raised his palm to meet him. The man in purple instantly spit blood and flew out.
Zhong Li retracted his sword, turned around and walked towards Luo Qingmin, the man in purple struggled to raise his hand, and shot an arrow in his sleeve towards Luo Qingmin's position.
Zhong Li'an didn't pay attention to the little tricks of the man in purple clothes, but Luo Qing didn't know it, he saw that the man raised his hand as if to attack Zhong Li'an, and Zhong Li'an turned his back to the man, so Luo Qing suddenly snapped at him in desperation. Pushing Zhong Li'an away, the arrow in his sleeve pierced Luo Qingyan's abdomen.
Luo Qingyan tried hard not to make herself look so painful, he was afraid that Zhong Li'an would dislike him, so he tried his best to smile at him.
Zhong Li'an raised his hand and slapped the man in purple where he landed, but someone rescued him.
Zhong Li'an immediately picked up Luo Qingmin, tapped a few acupuncture points next to the wound, and went back to the inn after a few ups and downs.
"Uncle Fu! Hurry up! Luo Qingmin is injured!"
People come before they come.
"What's the matter?" Fu Bo and Xiao Zhu hurriedly put down what they were doing and rushed over when they heard Zhong Li'an's voice.
Zhong Li'an put the person on the couch, and Luo Qing's face had already lost a trace of blood.Seeing that he couldn't help trembling all over despite the pain, but still said that he was fine, Zhong Li'an felt a ripple in his heart.
It seems...someone has done such a stupid thing before.
He stroked Luo Qingmin's forehead and said: "It's okay, Uncle Fu is very skilled in medicine, and you will get better soon."
Luo Qingyan nodded slowly, and let go of the hand that had been holding onto Zhongli'an's shirt.
Uncle Fu used scissors to cut off the clothes near Luo Qingmin's wound, checked the wound, and then handed Luo Qingmin a piece of cotton cloth to bite, but Luo Qingmin refused.
Seeing that Uncle Fu didn't force him any more, Xiao Zhu handed Uncle Fu the knife that Uncle Fu had asked him to put on the candle for a while, and Uncle Fu began to treat the wound. He said: "The arrow in this sleeve is not only poisonous but also has barbs. Fortunately, the injury is not deep and the toxicity is not strong, it will hurt for a while, and you can't help but bite the cotton pad."
Luo Qingyan nodded with difficulty.
Uncle Fu took the arrow while chatting with Luo Qingmin, alleviating Luo Qingmin's tension.
After the arrowhead was taken out, Luo Qingmin cleaned the wound, applied medicine, and finally only had to bandage it.
Ke Luoqing was desperately unwilling to take off her clothes.
Uncle Fu looked at Zhong Li'an, Zhong Li'an took the gauze and said, "I'll do it."
Uncle Fu nodded and led Xiao Zhu back out.
Seeing that he and Luo Qing were the only ones left alone, Zhong Li'an said, "The clothes are ruined anyway, so let's cut them up. I'll just cut it once, so that it can be wrapped with gauze."
Luo Qingyun struggled to get up, Zhong Li'an pressed his shoulder and said: "Don't move around, the wound should hurt after a while."
Luo Qingyan stopped moving after hearing the words, he bit his lower lip and said, "I'm sorry..."
Zhong Li'an said helplessly: "Why do you always like to say I'm sorry? You didn't apologize to anyone, but I have to thank you."
"Really...really?"
His eyes were full of hope, Zhong Li'an nodded and said, "En."
Luo Qingyan was very happy, as if the wounds on his body didn't hurt anymore, he smiled and showed his white teeth.
Zhong Li'an helped Luo Qingmin up, cut off a section of his clothes at the waist and abdomen, and then carefully wrapped gauze around him, trying not to touch him.
The hickey marks on Luo Qingxuan's body have faded, leaving only shocking scars.After wrapping up the gauze, Zhongli'an supported Luo Qingmin's back and let him lie back down. He lowered his eyes: "You should rest well these few days, and I will change your medicine on time."
"En." He pulled the thin quilt to cover his hot body, as if the temperature of Zhong Lian's fingers was still on his waist.
Chapter 026 Trees without bark will surely die
In the past few days, Xiao Zhu has been in charge of Luo Qingmin's daily life, but Zhong Li'an has never visited Luo Qingmin at other times except when she would show up when changing her dressing.
This day, Xiaozhu brought the porridge and side dishes that had been cooked, helped Luo Qingmin up, put a soft pillow on his back, and then put the vegetables in a bowl and handed them to him.
After thanking Luo Qingyan, she scooped up a spoonful and blew on Xiao Xu, then slowly started to eat.
The two were speechless, and after eating, Xiaozhu took away the bowls, chopsticks and plates, Luo Qing frowned, but finally failed to speak.
Later, his wound was slowly healing, and he could apply the medicine by himself, and Zhong Li'an never appeared again.
Afterwards, Xiao Zhu didn't show up anymore, only he and Uncle Fu lived in the courtyard that had just moved here.
When Uncle Fu was free, he studied pharmacology and read some medical books, and Luo Qingmin followed suit. Some parts were difficult to understand, so he memorized them one by one.
Luo Qingyan's handwriting is not pretty, but it is quite satisfactory.
Forbe saw it, but didn't speak.
After a month without communication between the two, Zhong Li'an and Xiao Zhu came back.
Overjoyed, Luo Qingyun rushed to hug Zhong Li'an's waist, and Zhong Li'an raised his hand to stroke the top of his hair.
"Haha! Everyone! Do you miss me!"
The few people who had just stood still looked towards the gate of the courtyard, and saw Han Dougeng appearing at the gate of the courtyard with a jump.
Uncle Fu raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, sir, you're back in style?"
Han Dougeng covered his lips: "Ahem, according to what you said, old man, I will definitely come back. I am so sorry for everyone." He glanced over several people in the courtyard one by one, and felt that something was wrong.
He looked around again, finally fixed on Luo Qingmin and said: "This person looks familiar." He squinted his eyes as if trying to see more clearly, and suddenly he clapped his palm and said, "Luohou!"
Luo Qingyan buried her face in Zhongli'an's arms, Han Dugeng frowned and pulled him forward, "What are you doing holding my elder brother!"
Luo Qingyan was pulled out, his face flushed red, "I..."
Han Dougeng said again: "Is the eldest brother anyone can hug? I don't know the rules."
Zhong Li'an shook his head helplessly, Xiaozhu said: "Where have you been for more than a month?"
"Ah? Me?" Han Dougeng pointed to himself and said, "I'm going to investigate the matter of the unity of Tianyuan! Let me tell you, I found a very important piece of news!"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he lowered his voice and continued: "Tian Yuan He Yi Sect, they are secretly colluding with the hidden guards in the palace."
Zhong Li'an frowned and said, "Is there any evidence?"
"Of course!" He said as he took out a token from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Li'an, "The code is engraved on the front of the token, and the dragon and phoenix are embossed on the reverse. It's nothing special, isn't it? Hey! Here comes the important point ! Brother, look!"
As Han Dougeng spoke, he turned the token upside down, and the picture of dragon and phoenix showing prosperity just now changed into the word Tianhong.
Xiaozhu said: "No one has ever seen the Royal Secret Guards, how do you know this is their token? Besides, the two characters "Dragon and Phoenix Showing Prosperity" and "Tianhong" are not exclusive to the palace, maybe they are the secret guards of some minister's family? "
Han Dougeng proudly said: "My father told me that this is the exclusive token of the hidden guards in the palace."
"your dad?"
Han Dougeng was taken aback and quickly shut up.
Several people saw this and didn't ask any more questions, but their hearts were turbulent. If it is true that the Tianyuan Unity Sect is related to the royal family as Han Dougeng said, then this matter will be difficult.
"Han Dougeng, how did you get this token?" Zhong Li'an asked.
It's not that he doesn't believe in Han Dougeng, it's just that he is afraid that Han Dougeng has fallen into someone else's trap.
"I know I told you that maybe you don't believe me, but I picked it up by chance."
Zhong Li'an frowned deeply: "Finding leaks?"
"Didn't I go to investigate the matter of the Tianyuan Heyi Sect? I did find out some information. It turns out that Qimen also intervened in this matter."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Han Dougeng nodded in satisfaction.
"Don't be foolish, tell me quickly." Xiaozhu urged.
Han Dougeng rolled his eyes at Xiaozhu and said: "When I found out that they were sneaking in a hidden foothold, I happened to see a person fighting with them, but he left after cleaning up the group of people, just let me catch the leak, hehe. "
Uncle Fu asked suspiciously, "A Qimen man?"
"Yeah, although he is wearing a bamboo hat with curtains hanging from the side of the hat, and he doesn't wear Qimen's clothes. But I feel that he is from Qimen, otherwise anyone who can play a tune can make people kill each other .”
"What did you say? Playing a tune can make people kill each other?" Fu Bo was startled for a moment, and then looked at Zhong Li'an.
Zhong Li'an said to Uncle Fu: "Soul control."
Uncertainly, Uncle Fu said: "The forbidden art soul control should be lost. Thinking back to the peak of martial arts, there were only two people who knew this art in the world. Later, these two people were killed by people from all corners of the country. No one will use it anymore, it should be controlled by drugs. Huh? Han Dougeng, how did you survive?"
Han Dougeng shook his head: "I don't know."
Zhong Li'an said: "I don't think it was caused by simple drug control in the beast hunt last autumn. Maybe the forbidden technique of soul control has not been lost."
Uncle Fu stared: "Is it the time when Young Master was in danger during the autumn hunt last time? It's so dangerous! Why didn't you tell us!"
"I'm fine, and speaking out will only increase worry."
"You, hey." Uncle Fu sighed and continued, "Let's not talk about this matter, just talk about the token. The hidden guards in the palace only obey the orders of the Holy Majesty. If Han Dougeng's clue is true, then this We'd better let it go."
Several people did not make a sound, Han Dougeng disagreed: "How can we let it go like this?! How can those dead people rest in peace! What should those kidnapped and deceived people do?"
Fu Bo said: "Is there any king in the world, and eating the king's salary and being loyal to the king is what a minister and the people should do."
"I really misunderstood you!" Han Dougeng was angry, "Eat the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor? What we eat is the hard work of our own hands! We are loyal to the court, not to the faint and tyrant! I think you are just greedy for life and afraid of death." That’s all! Count me as Han Dougeng blindly following the wrong person!!!”
He roared angrily and turned around to leave.Zhong Li'an stopped Xiao Zhu who was going forward to argue, but saw Luo Qingmin looking up at him, then he pointed at Han Dugeng angrily and said, "I think you are a reckless man!"
Han Dougeng seemed to have heard a big joke, he turned around angrily and pointed at himself in disbelief: "I'm a reckless man? You short chicken, you say I'm a reckless man?"
"You are the short chicken! There is nothing wrong with eating the king's salary and worrying about the king's worries! Hard work? Where do you go to work if you have no country and no king? You have your way of life, and the old man naturally has his thoughts and ideas. Worried. Besides, before your elder brother spoke, you started to jump, you are not a reckless man!" Luo Qingyun stared at Han Dougeng after finishing speaking.
When he heard someone say that Zhong Li'an was wrong, he panicked. Luo Qingyu hadn't said that much in the past few years, so he was short of breath for a while.
Han Dougeng pointed at Luo Qingmin angrily: "Smart teeth! I think you just want to climb his bed because of your pretty face!"
With a 'pop', everything stopped silently.
Zhongli'an pulled Luo Qingmin over. He raised his hand and slapped Han Dougeng, then stood in front of him and said condescendingly, "The eighth rule of the Zhong family's family: gossip and slander others, you will be punished with fifty lashes. Although you and I have done so before Brothers match each other, but I will let you go for the sake of not entering my Zhonglimen residence. This slap, I will slap you for Luohou."
Han Dougeng covered his face, the ups and downs of his chest showed his anger, he turned and walked away quickly.
Zhong Li'an walked to the stone table and sat down to meditate, the atmosphere was very stagnant for a while.
Luo Qingyan came out with a teapot and teacup and made a cup for each of them, then stood behind Zhongli'an and waited.
Uncle Fu looked at Luo Qingmin, wanting to see Zhong Li'an through him.
Leaving aside the issue of tokens, Han Dougeng's words did seem angry at first, but they were not unreasonable.They have been getting along for more than a month, and Luo Qingmin's heart is pure, it is easy to see that he has a different heart for Zhong Li'an.
It would be fine if Luo Qingmin was a woman, and she would be given a status when she entered the mansion, but he is not, and he is still a person with status and title.
The emperor's thoughts are unpredictable, no matter who the General's Mansion is involved with, it will attract suspicion, and Li An will not know at this point.
Looking at Zhong Li'an again, it seems that he does not reject "intimacy" with Luo Qingmin, even if it is His Royal Highness and the Princess, Zhong Li'an has always kept a distance, could it be...
Fu Bo stopped imagining, he said tentatively: "Master?"
Zhong Li'an looked up: "Huh? What's wrong, Uncle Fu."
"I bought some red beans yesterday, do you want some pastries?"
Zhong Li'an calmed down and said: "Then I will trouble Uncle Fu."
Uncle Fu went to the back kitchen, and Luo Qingmin followed after a while.Not only him, even Han Dougeng came over.
Uncle Fu glanced at Han Dougeng and said: "Hey, look who this is, oh yes, this is not the majestic Han Dougeng, Master Han, what is the trouble with Master Han?"
"Ahem, old man, I was wrong." Han Dougeng bowed his head.
Uncle Fu raised his eyebrows: "Just kidding, what's wrong with Mr. Han?"
"Old man, I was wrong, I was really wrong, you don't remember villains, please forgive me this time."
Uncle Fu ignored him and started to prepare for making red bean cakes, and Luo Qingyan didn't say a word.
Han Dougeng was laughing, Uncle Fu wanted to fetch water, so he hurried up, Uncle Fu wanted to meet, so he came forward again, Uncle Fu wanted to light a fire, so he also rushed forward.
Fu Bo got annoyed, hit his acupuncture points and threw him out of the hospital.
At night, when Zhong Li'an returned to his room, he noticed something strange on his couch, so he frowned and went to the side of the couch to lift the quilt, only to see Han Dougeng lying there with his shirt on and his head uncovered.
When Han Dougeng saw Zhong Li'an coming over, he immediately smiled and said, "Brother, I will warm your bed."
Zhong Li'an said calmly, "Come down."
Han Dougeng shook his head and moved in, then patted the empty space next to him and said, "Brother, come up quickly."
Since childhood, Zhong Li'an didn't like others to sleep with him, not even light, let alone others.
Seeing him sullenly said: "I'll ask again for the last time, you go down, or you don't go down."
Han Dougeng shook his head.
Zhong Li'an wrapped up all the quilts together with Han Dougeng, and put them outside the hospital.
Han Dougeng quickly shouted, "Big brother, big brother!"
Xiaozhu rushed out when he heard the sound, and said to him, "Han Dougeng, do you want to be invincible?"
"Ah? Second brother, what did you say?"
"Oh, you don't know?" Xiao Zhu sneered, "If a tree doesn't need bark, it will surely die. You are shameless, you are truly invincible!"
027 Chapter Embroidery Building 1
Han Dougeng beat his chest and stomped his feet, thinking that he was smart all his life, he was actually confused for a while!
His short temper is like a firework, how can he listen to what other people say!
He didn't care about the consequences yesterday, but today he has to bear the consequences. Han Dougeng followed behind them with his head down.
Suddenly, he raised his head and said, "Brother, why didn't you bring your righteous brother out this time?"
Uncle Fu and Xiaozhu on the carriage froze, and Han Dougeng said again: "I remember that he seems... um... he is about the same height as Luo Hou, and his figure is also about the same."
Zhong Li'an, who was riding on the horse, lowered his eyes and said, "He died in battle."
Han Dougeng was surprised and said: "Ah? Then why is there no news from the outside world! I wonder why the big brother treats Luohou differently, so that's how it is."
Zhong Li'an said lightly: "Han Dougeng, you have exceeded the rules."
"Oh oh oh, I'm sorry big brother. Huh? Big brother, you ignored me! Did you forgive me?! Hehehe."
Except for Luo Qingmin and Fu Bo sitting in the carriage, Xiao Zhu drove the carriage, while Han Dugeng and Zhong Li'an rode forward on horseback.
Han Dougeng's words awakened Uncle Fu, he secretly looked at Luo Qingmin, indeed, his figure was very similar to that of Zhong Li'an's Yidi.
According to this, Han Dougeng also has the shadow of Zhong Li'an's Yidi brother in him - talkative, thick-skinned.
After all, they are also brothers who have been together for more than ten years. Even if they want to forget, it will not happen overnight.
"We're going to Pingjiang soon." Zhong Li'an sat on the horse and looked in front of him and said.
Uncle Fu leaned out from the carriage and said, "My lord, can we go to Hanshan Temple after entering Pingjiang?"
"En." Zhong Li'an nodded.
According to legend, Hanshan and Shide, the poet monks, came to this temple from Tiantai Mountain in Zhijiang, and Hanshan and Shide were also abbots here, so the temple is called Hanshan Temple, and many literati have left calligraphy treasures there.
When you come to Gusu to see you, everyone sleeps on the river; the ancient palace has little idle land, and there are many water lanes and small bridges.
Pingjiang is a beautiful and graceful small town, with small bridges and flowing water everywhere, people live by the water, and there are various small stone bridges on the water.
The serenity and elegance of Pingjiang is completely different from the grand atmosphere of Beijing, Zhong Lian secretly sighed in his heart, if there is a chance in the future, he also wants to live here for a long time, playing with silk and bamboo for the rest of his life.
"I came to Pingjiang with your grandfather a few times before." Uncle Fu looked around and smiled.
It's just that now...things have changed.
Zhong Li'an's grandfather passed away before Zhong Li'an was born, so Zhong Li'an's impression of his grandfather was only from other people's mouth occasionally.
"When your grandfather was young, he was also a famous handsome man in the capital. He was just as courageous and resourceful as you, but his martial arts were not as good as yours. Back then, girls who wanted to marry him could line up from the east to the west of the city. Hey... ...If only he had your skills back then."
This was the first time Zhong Li'an heard about his grandfather from Uncle Fu.Usually, his family members, including his own parents, rarely mentioned his grandfather, so Zhong Li'an didn't have much impression of his grandfather, he only knew that his grandfather was framed and died on the battlefield.He was about to ask a few questions about his grandfather, when suddenly there was a bustling scene in front of him.
Han Dougeng jumped up and disappeared, Zhong Li'an stepped forward, Luo Qingmin and Uncle Fu got out of the carriage.
Soon Han Dougeng got out from the crowd, and he said to several people: "A large family here is marrying a daughter, and the hydrangea ball will be thrown soon! Whoever grabs it will marry him! I heard that his daughter is as beautiful as a fairy, hehe, brother , go grab the hydrangea! I'm looking at the horse."
"Nonsense, let's go." Zhong Li'an adjusted his direction and was about to leave, but saw the hydrangea falling directly into his arms.
Obviously his back is facing the embroidery building, how could the hydrangea fall on him?He raised his hand without thinking, and the hydrangea rolled down, and a group of people rushed to loot it.
Upstairs, a graceful woman covered with a veil looked at Zhong Li'an with a cold look in her eyes.
The Zhong family has several footholds in Pingjiang, and there are quite a few restaurants.Uncle Fu led a few people to the place where they would live in these days, and after they settled down, he led them to the storefront of the building in the center.
Here in Pingjiang is an old man who is more than seventy years old. When the old man saw Uncle Fu and Zhong Li'an, he respectfully saluted Zhong Li'an, then patted Uncle Fu on the shoulder excitedly and said, "It's good that you are all right." , it’s fine.”
"Old man, do you know the embroidered building beside the Fusang Bridge in Hexi..."
Before Han Dougeng finished asking, the old man looked at him and said, "This is..."
Han Dougeng patted his chest and said: "My surname is Han and my name is Dougeng. I am the one on the left arm and right arm of the elder brother!"
Xiaozhu gave him a blank look, Uncle Fu said: "I met him on the road, so I brought him here."
Han Dougeng looked at Zhong Li'an, but seeing that Zhong Li'an didn't speak, his expression darkened immediately, and he raised his head wearily, secretly sad.
Zhong Li'an was silent for a moment and said: "Seeing that he has some abilities, I took him with me. His surname is Han and his name is Dou Geng."
Han Dougeng raised his head when he heard the words, with tears in his eyes, he pulled up Zhong Li'an's sleeve and wiped it: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
A black line was drawn across the faces of several people, this Han Dougeng's face-changing skill is really amazing.
The old man stroked his beard and said, "You just asked that embroidered building, is this one also throwing hydrangea balls?"
Han Dougeng was puzzled: "Yeah? Old man, has this hydrangea been thrown for a few days?"
"you do not say."
"Then... have you never thrown it away or..."
The old man shook his beard and said, "Hey, someone has to live to the next day after picking it up."
Several people frowned at the same time, Fu Bo said: "What's the matter? Kefu is still blooming?"
The old man nodded: "Isn't it!"
"Then why are there so many people grabbing the hydrangea?" Han Dougeng asked puzzled.
Old man: "You don't understand. With their family's financial resources, ordinary people don't have to struggle for the rest of their lives. Besides, his daughter is beautiful, and everyone thinks that their fate will not be overcome. die."
Zhong Li'an asked: "How many people have been restrained to death so far?"
"Six."
"It's okay, okay! Fortunately, the elder brother threw away the hydrangea." Han Dougeng said with a look of fear.
The old man was taken aback: "Did you catch the hydrangea?"
Zhong Li'an explained: "I don't know what happened. I just turned around to leave when the hydrangea fell into my hand."
"Too bad, I'm afraid the young master will be hated by others."
Zhong Li'an's expression was flat: "Probably not."
"My lord doesn't know, that girl is not from Tianhong, but she was picked up and raised by that family in Hexi when she was young. She has a ruthless personality, and anyone who offends her will never end well."
"It's a trivial matter, I just have some doubts about how those men were killed."
The old man frowned and said, "Some said that the night of the bridal chamber had a sudden attack of illness, some said that he fell to his death accidentally from upstairs, and some said that he died of excitement after marrying such a beautiful daughter-in-law. In short, no one saw it with his own eyes. Pass."
"Where's the corpse?"
"There is a dead body, but no one has seen it clearly, and every time the top of the hair is exposed."
After listening, several people bowed their heads thoughtfully, Han Dougeng looked up at the old man and said, "Then you don't care about it, old man?"
"Care?" The old man stroked his beard again and said, "To deal with people, you must first understand your own position, and then be clear about your responsibilities. Since I have sworn to be loyal to the Zhong family, the Zhong family is behind me. Naturally, I don't want to." You will be nosy, and naturally you will not take the initiative to cause trouble. You are the same, because once you cause trouble, you will cause trouble for the Zhong family. "
Han Dougeng nodded thoughtfully, but the eldest brother is indeed the general!
Zhong Li'an said: "It's just that I'm incompetent, and my ancestors are in the dark."
"My lord, don't say that, if it wasn't for the emperor..."
"Cough cough!"
Uncle Fu coughed, and the old man also knew that he was too excited, so he immediately changed his words: "Young master is the first time to come to Pingjiang, so you need to play more."
"En." Zhong Li'an nodded.
There was a humming sound from behind, and several people turned their attention to the prestige, and saw Han Dougeng standing there covering his face and crying.
"Han Dougeng?" Zhong Li'an called out.
"Woooooo..." Han Dougeng stepped forward quickly and grabbed Zhong Li'an's arm, but he cried even louder.
The old man looked at Han Dougeng puzzledly, "This..."
"Brother...I'm happy..." Han Dougeng choked up.
Xiaozhu pulled Han Dougeng away, and Han Dougeng hugged Xiaozhu's arm to wipe his nose and tears.
"It's almost enough, don't embarrass big brother." It was rare that Xiao Zhu didn't show any disgust.
Fu Bo said: "Then... let's adjust and rest today, how about discussing tomorrow if there is something to do?"
Zhong Li'an nodded, and said: "We have quite a few properties in various places in Pingjiang. Then you go out to relax by yourself, just remember to come back."
"No!" Uncle Fu objected, "People with evil intentions may be staring at us somewhere, if we disperse, wouldn't it be playing into their hands?"
"Uncle Fu, I want to breathe by myself." Zhong Li'an answered truthfully.
Several people were stunned.
Indeed, Zhong Li'an has burdened too many things, his parents passed away, his brother-in-law wanted to put him to death, the Holy Majesty suppressed him, and he had to beware of offended people and spies from other countries.
He... can't breathe...
Uncle Fu nodded: "Well, be careful yourself, we are right here, you can find us when you come back."
"Thank you Uncle Fu." Zhong Li'an thanked.
"This silly boy..."
That's right, he's only seventeen... he's young and frivolous, but he's calmer than many old people who have been officials for many years.
They went back to the room that Uncle Fu had arranged for them, Luo Qingmin did not go to look for Zhong Li'an, and Han Dougeng also stayed in his room honestly and did not come out.
Zhong Li'an heaved a sigh of relief, turned over from the window and went to the street.
He touched the newly purchased diaper on his face, and then came to the Hexi Embroidery Building alone.
At this time, there was no one in front of the embroidery building, but the inside of the embroidery building was extremely lively.
Zhong Li'an walked towards the embroidered building, but saw a sneaky figure, he followed quickly, but the figure suddenly disappeared.
He couldn't find that person on the left or right, so Zhong Li'an stopped looking for him.
Suddenly, a melodious sound of the flute came to mind, and it was the same tune that Zhong Lian heard when he was fishing that time.
Thinking that maybe the fake Luo Qingmin also came to Pingjiang, Zhong Li'an frowned and went back to the embroidery building.
028 Chapter Embroidery Building 2
Zhong Li'an sneaked in and quietly remembered the layout of the embroidery building inside and outside, and only waited for the night to find out.
When night fell as promised, Zhong Li'an counted the time, turned around and went to the bride's bridal chamber to hide.
On the wedding night, the red tents and candles in the bridal chamber were festive, but Zhong Li'an felt that the place was weird and eerie.It stands to reason that the bride should sit on the couch and wait for the groom, but Zhong Li'an saw that there was no one there.
Just as he was thinking about it, the door was kicked open with a bang, and the bridegroom swayed in with the help of the bride and the drunken groom.
The bride helped the man to the side of the couch, threw him on the couch, and then patted her arm. The disgusted look in her eyes was not the way she treated her husband.
She took off her wedding dress and removed her hair accessories, then came to the couch expressionlessly and stared at the unconscious man on the couch.
"Useless things, this little wine will not work!"
After she said that, she stretched out her hand to the head of the bed. There was an inconspicuous little red bead on the head of the bed. When she pressed it lightly, the bed immediately sunk down quickly.
Zhong Li'an frowned, and soon after the woman also jumped down, he followed.
This tunnel is very long, without a trace of light, and very damp.Zhong Li'an cautiously groped forward, and after walking for a certain distance, there was a faint light ahead, Zhong Li'an searched for the light and moved forward quickly.
The smell of blood became stronger the further you went in, there was a fork in front, Zhong Li'an carefully identified it and walked to the left.But after walking a certain distance, the front had come to an end, Zhong Li'an found a stone room in front of him, he waited quietly for a while, only to see a puddle of blood flowing out from under the stone door!
Suddenly there was a bang, and the passage Zhong Li'an had just arrived was blocked.
It should be that his whereabouts have been exposed, but he has been very cautious all the way, and he really doesn't understand where there is a mistake.
At this time, there was a strange noise from the top of the tunnel, Zhong Li'an looked at the top of the tunnel, suddenly countless small holes opened on the top and many poisonous substances fell down!
Zhong Li'an immediately drew his sword and killed all the poisonous things, but he didn't expect that there would be bursts of poisonous gas coming out of these poisonous things after they died!
The small hole on the top had already been closed, Zhong Li'an swung up, and raised his sword to split the top, but unexpectedly, another poison fell down.He turned his eyes to the stone door, raised his hand and slapped the stone door, the stone door shattered, and a disgusting evil wind rushed over his face.
In the middle of the stone room is a pool of blood!And above the blood pool, there are countless corpses hanging!Some corpses are still bleeding!
On the side of the blood pool, a woman was bathing in the blood pool with bare hands. She was not surprised to see Zhong Li'an, but raised her red lips and said lightly, "Master, do you want to come down and play together?"
The poison that fell from here all hit Zhongli'an, Zhongli'an saw the right time and lightly landed on a clean place, and all the poison fell into the pool of blood.But instead of being afraid, the woman laughed.
Zhong Li'an untied the corpse that was hanging above the blood pool closest to him. This person was no longer breathing, and the pulse at the side of his neck had stopped beating.
"Young master, come down to accompany the slave family~"
The woman's voice was bewitching, she got up and walked out of the pool of blood towards Zhongli'an step by step.The round breasts trembled slightly with the steps, the soft and slender waist twisted like a water snake, and the straight white and tender long legs.
There are still blood beads on her body that haven't slipped off, she looks like a coquettish enchantress, but also like a ghost from hell.
This kind of scenery, if any man sees it, his blood will rush and his heart will beat faster.
Zhong Li'an quickly slapped the woman, but the woman jumped up and ran away.
"Young master is so cruel. The slave family just wants the son to accompany the slave family, but the young master wants to kill the slave family."
The woman blew a whistle as she said, Chi
