Merry character

Chapter 54 Lu encounters an assassination, Zhang arrives in the capital...

The carriage set foot on the road back to the capital.After traveling a long way, I realized that Lin Tan had actually followed.I looked at him: "You..."

"Meeting is fate, I have nothing else to do for the time being, so I will send Mudi home."

I frowned and looked at him for a while without speaking.He said: "Besides, I also have some minor matters to go to the capital, and sending Jinyu off is just a matter of dropping by."

I nodded, leaned against the car, and stopped talking.If he has any purpose, I will naturally not let him go.

At this moment, I feel that every second is so long, and I can't think too much.

I never knew losing a loved one could be so painful.I hope Liu Chongyu is alive.

After three days on the official road, I couldn't bear it any longer, so I abandoned the carriage and took a shortcut.The small road can go to another city tomorrow, saving two days of time.Even if the trail is not safe, I can't care less.

At dusk, a group of people emerged like ants.There was no sound, only the bright knife reflected cold light in the afterglow.They rushed forward.

I was sharper than ever, and my flute was out before they got any closer.When all the seven orifices bled to death, Fang stopped talking.A lot of dead people, but did not arouse the slightest sympathy and fear in me.Killing was so easy.

I turned the flute slowly without turning my head and said, "Who are you?" Lin Tan is by no means a simple scholar.I clearly felt that the breath on his body changed before I spoke.My flute had no effect on him either.

"Jinyu, it doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I won't hurt you." Lin Tan said unhurriedly.

I stared at the bamboo flute in my hand for a moment, then moved it close to my lips.Lin Tan's martial arts skills are so high, I don't know what level it takes to deal with him.I can only do my best.

I turned to look at him coldly.He didn't react other than frowning.Is such a rhythm that can kill people instantly in modern times useless to him?I let out a breath slowly, and then added dark elements to the sound.

I stared at him, he was resisting inside.I clearly felt a resistance in the air.I am getting more and more powerless. With a "pop", my flute broke!

Looking up again, the black eyes of the person opposite turned into gold.The temperament of the whole person has changed.

Kongyuan!

It was him.I tightened the rope and said cautiously, "What's your plan?"

His eyes flickered, then returned to black again.A Buddha-nature voice that seems to be able to cleanse people's hearts came: "Jinyu, I have never hurt you, why do you dislike me so much?"

I frowned, and answered his question, but said: "We don't know each other well, and I don't want to have anything to do with you in the future."

"Do you know how many people are trying to harm you along the way from Wucheng to Pingyun?"

"You took the initiative to clean it up? No need, I can deal with it myself." I was unmoved.

Kong Yuan: "There are many people who want your life, I just want to protect you."

I said coldly, "No need."

"It's getting late. Let's go quickly."

Taking a look at the sky, I said "Don't follow me" to Kong Yuan, and then galloped away.The path is winding and uneven.Overgrown grass.

Kong Yuan's horse was still behind, so I sped up.

The wind howled past.The autumn wind is already very cool on the face.I remember that one autumn, Liu Zhongyu and I raced horses in the back of a villa.How comfortable it was then.I won that time, and I was proud of it for a long time.It was only later that I found out that Liu Chongyu asked me to do it.

I hit the horse's belly hard, and the horse whimpered and ran forward like crazy.After hearing Kong Yuan's "be careful" reminder, I suddenly realized that there was a cliff in front of me, and I pulled the rein quickly, but the horse really rushed forward like crazy.

For a moment, I thought, well, maybe I can meet Liu Chongyu in the underworld.But then I thought, if Liu Chongyu was still alive, wouldn't it be true that he would never see him again.

If I can't see it, I can't see it. Why should I see him?

Plum blossoms are fragrant and cold, refreshing and pleasant.The person hugging me from behind is definitely not Kubuchi.I knew it must be Mei Jiu without looking back.

A master is a master, and it always appears suddenly.

I glanced at the cliff in front of me, it wasn't very high, and I could see the low, but if I fell, for a person like me who has no force, he would be disabled even if he didn't die.

Kong Yuan's horse is by his side.He and Mei Jiu regard each other as enemies.

I pushed away Mei Jiuhuan's hand on my waist, turned to look at him and asked, "Have you seen Gu Ming recently?"

He was slightly stunned, and smiled gently: "What are you asking him for? You don't even want to know how I am doing?"

"Did you see him?" I asked impatiently.

Mei Jiu looked at me for a while, then said coldly: "No, I haven't seen him since you left that day. I was going to follow you quietly that day, not wanting to encounter anything. I finally found you today. Are you going to Back to the capital?"

I rode my horse back to the road, and said to Mei Jiu, "Go down."

Mei Jiu didn't move.Kong Yuan followed behind on a horse.

"Go and ride with Kong Yuan."

Mei Jiu moved without speaking.Kong Yuan suddenly rode up to me, stretched out his hand and said, "You sit on this horse, I'll change it with you."

I was about to agree, Mei Jiu said: "You didn't intend to trade with him at all, you just tricked him into riding with you."

I looked towards Kong Yuan.He said, "Don't listen to him."

I turned around, pinched the horse's belly, and the horse started to gallop.

The most important thing now is not to drive these two away, but to go back and confirm the facts.

The journey was not peaceful, and encountered several waves of assassins.I didn't do anything else, Mei Jiu and Kong Yuan quickly resolved it.If it is purely about friends, it is a great thing to have such two friends who are good at martial arts.However, they are all broken sleeves.

***

After more than ten days of eating and drinking, I finally returned to the capital.

Nothing has changed, but it seems like nothing is the same.But no matter what, when I come back, there is no imaginary rejection, only familiarity.

The gate of the prime minister's mansion is pasted with mourning couplets.There was no guard at the door, so I knocked on the door with trembling hands.After knocking several times, the door opened.

The person who opened the door was Manager Ding. When he saw me, he said excitedly, "The young master is back."

I nod.He looked at me for a long while, and said: "The young master has lost weight." Seeing the two people following me, he said in confusion, "These two are..."

I glanced at them, forget it, they helped me a lot along the way.I said, "It's my friend."

"Director Ding, my father...is this not true?"

Manager Ding's face showed a wailing look, and he suddenly cried: "Young Master, my condolences will change."

Something is broken.

"Master."

"Jin Yu."

"Jin Yu."

I shook off the hands of Mei Jiu and Kong Yuan, and ran inside.

Many voices are calling me, how precious, how precious, but I don't want to answer them.All the way to the lobby.The color of black and white seems to dye the world into black and white.

I walked through the incense table and walked to the coffin.I raised my hand to open the coffin.Duobao's voice immediately came to mind: "Master, you can't do it."

I turned my head to look at Duobao. He looked like he was about to cry but not laughing, which was ridiculous.I said dumbly: "Duobao, tell me, it's not true."

Duobao burst into tears: "Eldest young master, you have come back. You must hold on. Madam and third young master are overwhelmed with grief, and we will wait for you to come back to preside over the overall situation."

A group of people gathered, all in plain clothes, and I looked at everyone.Then he walked out with no expression on his face.Before stepping out of the mourning hall, Liu Yulan came supporting Mrs. Liu.

Both of them were also dressed in plain clothes, with gloomy complexions.In particular, Mrs. Liu seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden.Seeing me, she said gently, "Yan'er is back?"

I nodded and said nothing.Liu Yulan's eyes were the same as those she saw in Wucheng.Cold and strange.

I returned to my Huarongju.Everything inside is exactly the same as when I left, except that the green leaves in the yard have turned yellow.

No one has changed, such as Duobao Duobei, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum.

I went back to my bedroom and lay down on the bed slowly.When I went to the mourning hall just now, Mei Jiu and Kong Yuan, who had disappeared automatically, suddenly reappeared.

I can't be bothered to get angry at their rude behavior.It feels boring to do anything now.

If they don't talk, I just pretend they don't exist.

**

Early the next morning, the emperor and queen arrived.

The emperor is still Qi Zheng, but the queen has changed.It was replaced by the willing girl.

A large group of us worshiped the emperor and empress first, and they condescended to offer incense in front of Liu Chongyu's spirit.Then welcome them into the hall.The emperor suddenly said: "Now that Liu Aiqing has passed away, I have appointed the Prime Minister as Marquis of Qi, and this title can be passed on for three generations. It stands to reason that the title should be passed on to the eldest son, but the Prime Minister said before his death that he would pass on the Liu family property to the third young master Liu. How is this going to happen?" Is good?"

The hall was silent.

I looked at the Emperor, and he looked over.I turned my eyes away, and said calmly: "I told my father long ago that I would give up the Liu family business. The emperor will pass the title to the third brother. I don't have any objections."

"It's just that there must be a rule for everything, and this rule is the right of inheritance of the eldest son..."

"If you talk about the rules, then the emperor should not inherit the throne."

I said the wrong thing.

Mrs. Liu frowned, and Liu Yulan frowned.The emperor frowned.The queen was surprised.The eunuch next to the empress looked terrified, of course he wasn't terrified about himself, but imitating the terrified expression I should have.But I am not panicked.Suddenly, I feel that everything has lost its meaning.The world is gray and I am not afraid of anything.

"Your Majesty, I believe that Young Master Liu is just talking nonsense because he is too sad. Don't take it to heart."

Willing is speaking for me, but I don't feel grateful, just bored.The emperor seems to be counting on me to admit my mistakes.I looked at other places in a daze, and didn't look at him.

Mrs. Liu called me, and I looked at her, pretending not to understand the meaning in her eyes.

Finally, I heard the emperor laugh and said: "Since the first young master Liu has said so, then the title will be passed on to the third young master Liu." The emperor looked at Liu Yulan, "Aiqing, you are a great talent, this title belongs to you , I am very relieved."

I have long paid attention to the courtiers I value, but I still come to ask me.Could it be that you originally wanted to force me to give up Yin, but didn't want me to not care at all?I thought about these possibilities, not angry, just bored, everything is boring!
