The salted fish boss was forced to bind the rich system

Chapter 81 The Meeting of the Friend of the Old Man

As the days passed, Lu Huaizhou got used to squatting in front of the door with a bowl in his hand, waiting for the news from the capital.Most of what he heard were rumors in the market, and Lu Huaizhou recorded them all, and then analyzed the credibility of them.

Shiyun Town is far away from the capital, so the news doesn't travel fast, and it often takes a while.However, word of mouth is still much faster than when they came here by carriage from far away.

They were in this small courtyard, listening to the emperor's marriage proposal for He Yu and Zheng Shuyi. At the end of that year, when the news of their wedding reached Shiyun Town, Zheng Huaizhou was already eight years old.

More than half a year has passed, and Lu Huaizhou and the others have not received any contact from anyone here. The letter that was clamped in the carriage has been read countless times, and Lu Huaizhou can memorize every word.

"Huaizhou."

It was the voice of cocklebur, Lu Huaizhou looked back, and he knew from the expression on that face that there was nothing wrong and he just wanted to chat with him.

Before Lu Huaizhou responded, Xanthium began to complain to himself: "Are we really going to live like this day by day? No matter how long my life is, I have seen modern high-end technology, and I don't want to live here without electricity." Such a slow life in ancient times!"

Lu Huaizhou just turned his upper body in a squatting position: "Think you're on vacation."

Xanthium couldn't hold back the desire to roll its eyes, and pulled up water from the well with enough strength, and said intermittently: "I used to live in the place where I was with you humans, did you seek, the polluted big, natural it's the same?"

"Then you can treat this as your home and feel at home, isn't it more comfortable?"

"Home away from home doesn't seem to mean that, does it?" he whispered in the kitchen on the fifth day, but no one heard him.

Cocklebur had just fetched a bucket of water, and was panting from exhaustion. He had had enough of his broken body, and lay down in the middle of the yard with his arms and legs spread out, complaining, "Why doesn't time stop jumping all of a sudden?"

Regarding this point, the fifth day has recently thought about it clearly, and amplified his voice to reassure Xan'er: "Probably because the little princess has an important plot to leave."

Xanthium still expressed that she couldn't accept it, or that she didn't want to accept this reality: "When she is in the plot, we can only be like this?"

Lu Huaizhou didn't continue chatting about the cocklebur, he handed the empty bowl to the fifth day, and asked him to help him add food.

On the fifth day, he put the bowl of rice back in front of Lu Huaizhou, and sat down beside Xan'er: "Don't worry, someone may contact us soon."

It was a windy and snowy day. Seeing that the end of the year was approaching, there was not much food in the house. On the fifth day, I wrapped myself tightly and went out to buy. Cocklebur and Lu Huaizhou were left at home.

Cocklebur lit a fire and prepared to cook. Lu Huaizhou squatted in front of the stove to warm his hands. He never thought that his first year as the owner of the Strange News Agency had just ended, and he would go back to ancient times to celebrate the New Year.

The New Year's Eve dinner is destined to be inferior to the one that just ended, but it is equally lively, which is not bad.

Lu Huaizhou's little face was reddened by the fire, and it was the kind of child's anticipation for the New Year.Because of the coming festival, even the cocklebur didn't mention the entrustment anymore, and I had a lot of New Year's arrangements in my heart, and I really lived my life.

Two people, one big and one small, were busy in the kitchen happily, and the wind and snow outside the door did not affect them at all.

But the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and Lu Huaizhou got up from time to time to look out the window, waiting for the fifth day's figure to appear in his field of vision.

Before the fifth day, when Lu Huaizhou looked out for the seventh time, he saw a bright red in the white snow all over the sky.

The bright color was very eye-catching, Lu Huaizhou's eyes followed it slowly, and finally saw it disappear outside his house.

Then there was a faint knock on the door.

The voice was very soft, even less audible in such a windy day, but Lu Huaizhou saw the man and knew that he must be visiting his house, so he went back to the house and took a coat, put it on his body, and ran out opened the door.

Standing outside the door was a beautiful woman, about seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a red cloak, the same color that Lu Huaizhou saw just now.

Seeing a little boy standing inside the door, the woman looked slightly startled, bent down and asked, "Hello, may I ask, is anyone still at home?"

Lu Huaizhou thought it would be more reliable to tell me than to tell the person in the room, but it was too cold outside, he didn't want to stay for another second, so he didn't talk nonsense, let people into the yard quickly, closed the door, and led the way.

He ran back from the few steps from the courtyard gate to the house, and the woman in red was still struggling to follow.

Xan'er watched Lu Huaizhou rush out, thinking that he was going to pick him up when he came back on the fifth day, but he didn't expect to bring back a woman, quite surprised.

Under the surprised eyes of Xanthium annuum, the woman introduced herself: "My name is Hongyi, and I am Liandie's friend."

As soon as he heard that it was his own person, Xanthium hurriedly let him into the house.

Now that the fifth day is not at home, it is inevitable that I will repeat it to the fifth day later, Xanthium did not let Hong Yi explain her purpose of coming immediately, and told her not to worry and sit down for a while.

Lu Huaizhou poured a cup of hot tea for Hongyi to warm her body.Not long after, her pale face that had been frozen outside gradually regained its blood color, and on the fifth day, she also returned with the spoils of shopping for the day.

After introducing each other, Hong Yi talked about all her experiences since she came to Yue.

In the past few years, although Lu Huaizhou and the others haven't met her, Hong Yi has come into contact with surprisingly many people.

At first she served in the palace, in the palace of Zheng Shuyi's mother, Concubine Ning.

She was invited by Lian Die, and she didn't know anyone else. She thought she could get in touch with the core character, the little princess, but she didn't expect to meet Zheng Mo, who was also Lian Die, when she was going to ask the imperial doctor for Ning Concubine. .

The two left a contact channel, Zheng Mo lives near the imperial hospital, it is very convenient for Hongyi to come here, sometimes it is not easy to meet directly, so they leave notes for each other in the gap outside a palace gate.

Until Zheng Mo went crazy and was locked up, they still kept in touch.

After Zheng Mo was locked up, she secretly went to see it.Lian Die had told her before that the Crown Prince Zheng Ying, the Crown Princess, and the guard named Wu Liu were all with them.At that time, Liandie probably didn't have much hope for her future, so she told Hongyi that if she couldn't be contacted, she could go to them.

Later, something happened in the palace, and Hong Yi was included in the confinement along with her, taking care of Concubine Ning and the little princess, and had no chance to find those people Lian Die mentioned.

In the past few years, she has been by Zheng Shuyi's side, and she has heard many things from her.Last year Zheng Shuyi went out of the palace to get married, and asked Hong Yi to marry him by name, so Hong Yi left the palace with her and married into General He Yu's residence.

On the fifth day, after listening to Hong Yi's words, she asked, "Did the young lady come here at the behest of the little princess?"

Hong Yi took off her clothes and said solemnly: "General He asked me to come." After saying that, Hong Yi took out a letter.

"He Yu?" Cang'er asked back with a sharp voice, and the unexpected emotion was very obvious.He never expected that the boy Long Gu would be so cooperative.

On the fifth day, the letter was opened, and Lu Huaizhou leaned into his arms to read it with him.

This Qilin's handwriting is not comparable to that of Shangmu and Liandie. It has a kind of bloody wildness. It obviously doesn't have much content, but because the writing is too big, it just took several pages.

The letter clarified some investigations he had done on the cause of the death of the late emperor Zheng Fengshi after returning to the capital for more than half a year.Judging from the reluctant attitude between the lines, most of the investigation was completed under the impetus of He Yu himself. Long Gu himself was very bored with life in the capital, and he still missed the days when he first made decisive decisions in the frontier.

For now, he hasn't told Zheng Shuyi the results of his investigation. According to He Yu's own wishes, he wants to investigate all the causes and consequences and all the people involved in it, and then tell his beloved little princess.In case there is something she can't bear, He Yu will hide that part.

So before that, he didn't tell Zheng Shuyi that he was also investigating the death of the late emperor.

But recently he discovered that someone seemed to be following Zheng Shuyi, and she herself was obsessed with finding out the cause of the late emperor's death.After thinking about it, He Yu decided to secretly accompany Zheng Shuyi to meet her living brother, the former prince Zheng Ying, under the pretext of going out for a trip.

The story must follow the flow. Although He Yu learned that the former crown prince was still alive from the gossip, he had never seen it with his own eyes, so he could not be 100% sure. Lean over to find out.

The two were hunted down halfway, and the guards gave up their lives to protect Hong Yi and escaped. Hong Yi walked alone for a few days. Thanks to her skill, she escaped several groups of chasers. After confirming her safety, she dared to come to find her. The former prince's family.

After reading the letter and Hong Yi's words, Lu Huaizhou pressed Wu Tian's hand so that the letters would no longer cover his face, and then raised his head and asked Hong Yi: "You have confirmed our address. Go back and report, Zheng Shuyi." Will you leave immediately? You have encountered so many dangers this time, so you won’t have to delay for a while? Do you know the approximate time? Did Zheng Shuyi tell you?”

Zheng Shuyi really told Hong Yi about this, and she relayed: "The little princess said that she only came to Shiyun Town in the autumn of the next year." After answering, Hong Yi noticed that the person who asked herself the question just now was the one The boy who opened the door was a little strange, "This is?"

Just now, she was so busy listening to Hong Yi talking about her, that she forgot that Lu Huaizhou's identity had not been mentioned, so on the fifth day, she promptly introduced: "My boss, Lu Huaizhou."

A smile appeared on Hong Yi's face, and he looked at Lu Huaizhou: "Is it the little emperor's grandson? No wonder everyone said they couldn't find Boss Lu. Who would have thought that the boss turned into a child."

She has a warm temperament when she smiles, making the cold outside go unnoticed.When Lu Huaizhou saw her, he looked out of the window from time to time, as if he wanted to wait for the snow to stop before leaving, and said to her: "It's freezing outside, Miss Hong Yi, can you leave after the New Year?"

Hong Yi rubbed her hands, shook her head and said: "The letter has been delivered, I'm going to hurry back. If the people chasing me find out what I'm doing here, it will bring danger to you."

Lu Huaizhou looked at the red cloak with red eyes, and complained in his heart, if you are really afraid of attracting attention, wouldn't it be better to change to a white one in winter?
