It's not good to be a widow [Comprehensive]

At the same time that Lu Jinglu and Bai Feifei were living in Yihua Palace, the people from Feixian Island in the South China Sea and Baiyun City Lord's Mansion also ushered in winter in an extremely awkward atmosphere.

There is no way, the master is in a bad mood, so they are naturally having a rough time.

In previous years, half a month before New Year's Eve, the City Lord's Mansion should be decorated with lights and festoons.

But this year—

"The city lord didn't say that he couldn't arrange it." The old steward of the city lord's mansion faced a group of attendants who came to ask him whether he still followed the convention, and his tone was headache, "But if it is really arranged, he's afraid..."

He didn't need to finish the rest of the words, the group of attendants who had served in the city lord's mansion for many years understood it, so everyone couldn't help shaking.

This is not to say that Ye Gucheng is the kind of master who picks on servants because of his mood.

On the contrary, the more he was in a bad mood, the gentler he would be to the people in the house, as if he was not qualified as a city lord if he didn't suppress his emotions.

But people have emotions, after all, they need to vent.Those who can really digest themselves are either saints or gods.

Ye Gucheng forced himself not to vent his anger on anyone, and the unlucky ones were the flowers and trees planted by Xijian Pond.

In the past three months, every time he finished his sword practice, the group of people who tended the garden complained endlessly.

The messy flowers and trees destroyed by the sword energy will naturally be removed and replaced with new ones, but the new ones haven't grown up yet, and the next day they will die again without a whole body.

What?You said that you are going to die anyway, why not let him destroy it and not plant new ones?

That's even worse.

Because Ye Gucheng actually didn't want to be known by others, and he didn't want to be reminded by himself the day before that when he was practicing sword alone, his emotions were a little out of control.

"It's more than a little bit!" The servants in charge of the garden wanted to cry, "Anyway, I've never seen the city lord like this in all these years!"

"Oh, when will this kind of day end." Others also sighed.

The old housekeeper was very helpless when he heard their complaints.

After thinking for a while, he finally thought of something that could barely be used to appease these people.

"I asked my nephew last time, and he said that the city lord has sent someone to find out the whereabouts of Madam." The old housekeeper said, "When Madam has news, the city lord might be happy."

He is an old man in the city lord's mansion. His nephew is about the same age as Ye Gucheng. He grew up with Ye Gucheng since he was a child. Now he is the leader of all the sword servants in Ye Gucheng.

So the news that leaked from his mouth is absolutely unmistakable.

"is it?"

"That would be great..."

"Speaking of which, why on earth would Madam—"

"Okay, is this something we can guess? Have you forgotten how the city lord explained it before?"

A group of people stopped their voices and talked later, but they couldn't talk about anything else, so they had to disperse.

At the same time, in the study on the west side, the sword servants who had the most contact with Ye Gucheng were actually in dire straits.

"Report, report to the city lord, ma'am... still no news." The leader of the sword servant said in a difficult tone, "We found the ship of the desert pearl before going to Dengzhou, and sent people to inquire and continue to investigate, but only saw the ship. "

"Such a precious ship, why don't you just throw it away?" Ye Gucheng thought of Chu Liuxiang's previous description of the black pearl, and felt that the princess would not be so extravagant and wasteful.

Sure enough, the leader of the Sword Attendant shook his head and said: "No, there are still people guarding the boat, but no matter who we send to inquire, we can't find out where Madam and Damo Mingzhu went after getting off the boat."

Ye Gucheng: "Don't look for them, why don't you just inquire in Dengzhou City?"

The leader of the sword servants looked puzzled and said that he had heard about it.

Just by hearing his tone, Ye Gucheng knew that there should be no results, but he still asked, "How?"

"There are many people who say they have seen Madam and Desert Pearl." The leader of the sword servants paused, "But their stories are not the same."

Some people said that they went north along the Jiaodong Peninsula, others said that they saw them going in the direction of Hedong Road, and some...

All in all, in the mouths of different people, the whereabouts of Hei Zhuzhu and Lu Jinglu are completely different, and some are even opposite.

The only thing is, these people are very sure.But this will only make it more difficult for the people in Baiyun City to investigate.

Ye Gucheng: "..."

He is not an idiot, how can he not react when he heard this, this is definitely the news released to hide their real whereabouts.

So, she really doesn't want to see him anymore?

Ye Gucheng felt very blocked in his heart, so he couldn't listen any more, he waved his hands and said, "Go down."

The sword servants didn't go out immediately, but hesitated for a moment, and sent two more letters.

Ye Gucheng: "Who sent it?"

"One is from the Nanwang Mansion. Apart from the letter, there is also a ship of courtesy, but the ship is still parked outside the island for the time being. Do you want to accept it?"

"What about the other letter?" Ye Gucheng no longer wanted to get involved with Nanwang anymore, thinking that if the other letter was also related to Nanwang's mansion, then he would send it back together.

"The other one is from the Wudang sect." The sword attendant said, "There is also the personal seal of the head of Wudang on it."

Hearing that it was Wudang, Ye Gucheng finally relaxed his expression, stretched out his hand and asked for the letter, opened it and read it.

The letter was written very simply, with only a few sentences, but the content did not cause him any less headache than the fact that Nan Wang came to seek a relationship again.

The head of Wudang said in the letter that his distant cousin broke the school rules again, if possible, I hope he can urge and teach this bastard well.

Otherwise, if this continues, Wudang may not be able to afford this great Buddha, so we can only ask him to leave Wudang.

After Ye Gucheng finished reading the letter, he was silent for a long time, then he caught another letter in the sword waiter's hand, and asked for it.

Others in the study did not dare to show their anger, but he quickly finished reading Nan Wang's letter.

Unlike the head of Wudang, Nanwang still likes to talk in circles so much. He first greeted Ye Gucheng, who had previously excused himself to be busy and didn't see their father and son and didn't agree to accept his disciples, and then mentioned Lu Jinglu's "missing" ", it is said that they also sent people to help find it, and finally got to the point, let him accept the gift first, and after the New Year's Eve, their father and son will come to visit again.

Ye Gucheng: "..."

He closed the letter, thought for a while, and then made a decision in his heart.

"Return the boxing ceremony." He ordered, "Just say it's what you want. As for the matter of visiting again, there's no need for it. I won't be in South China Sea then."

As soon as the words "Not in South China Sea" came out, the sword servants in the study were a little dumbfounded, wondering if their city lord didn't plan to spend years in order to hide from King Nanhai?

After being dumbfounded, these people who had followed him for many years couldn't help asking out the doubts in their hearts.

"Then... where are you going?" Could it be that you feel that the people under your command are too useless, and you want to go to the Central Plains to find your wife in person?

Ye Gucheng: "I'll go to Wudang to deal with Ye Guhong's matter."

A group of sword servants: "..." What a big deal, and it's worth going there yourself?Don't just use Master Tang as an excuse!

Of course, they only dared to slander like this, and they didn't have the guts to really be narrow-minded in front of Ye Gucheng.

All in all, Ye Gucheng decided to go out under the influence of Nan Wang's persistent support and his distant cousin's continuous troubles.

This decision spread from the study to the entire Baiyun City Lord's Mansion in less than half a day, and the servants of the manor were all surprised and relieved at the same time.

"The city lord hasn't been out of the courtyard for a long time, right?"

"That's right. In the past, when Master Tang caused trouble, the city lord usually wrote a letter in person. If it was impossible, he called the person back. Anyway, he never went there in person."

"What happened to the young master this time..."

Everyone was eagerly guessing how much trouble Ye Gucheng had caused this time, but they didn't guess the result until the end.

"In my opinion, Young Master Tang might just be an excuse for the city lord to go to the Central Plains. If something really happened, there would be no need for a letter from Wudang, and those good people would have already spread the news to the South China Sea."

"But if it's an excuse, the city lord—"

Having said that, a group of people collectively stopped and stopped guessing. Anyway, they knew what happened next.

……

Embroidery Valley.

Because of Yaoyue's attitude at the beginning, Hei Zhuzhu didn't dare to let Lu Jinglu and Bai Feifei stay with him in the end, so he stayed for half a month longer.

Fortunately, during this half month, Yaoyue didn't want to disavow the token of Child Elder any more and wanted to drive them out, so she breathed a sigh of relief and decided to leave.

Lu Jinglu knew that she had been away from home for more than half a year this time, and most of the time was spent taking care of herself, so of course she was embarrassed to try her best to keep her in the Embroidered Jade Valley for the New Year.

But to be honest, she is still very reluctant to give up this friend who has helped her a lot.

So when Heizhu came to say goodbye to her, she insisted on seeing her off.

The two walked slowly to the entrance of the valley, Heizhu smiled brightly, touched her head, and said: "Don't worry, I will come to see you again after you give birth."

But Lu Jinglu shook his head.

Lu Jinglu said: "No, I don't have to worry so much at that time, I can go directly to the desert to find you."

Hei Zhuzhu thought about it, and it's okay to say, but you remember to write a letter in advance so that I can send someone to pick you up.

"Don't say no." After finishing speaking, Heizhu quickly added, "When we were at sea, you said that you could help us plant trees when we got to the desert. When the time comes, we will welcome you all over the country. It's all as it should be."

In the desert, the most scarce are talents who know how to adapt to local conditions, maintain or even create oases.

At that time, Heizhu knew that Lu Jinglu understood this, and was very surprised. After letting her chat with her subordinates for a few words, she felt like she had found a treasure, and felt that she had made a lot of money by saving someone and going back.

Lu Jinglu actually didn't expect that the profession he learned that sounded useless would come in handy after time travel.

Now that Heizhu's old story was brought up again, she readily agreed, "Okay, see you then."

After the two made an agreement, outside Xiuyu Valley, the group of guards who were waiting to go home with the princess were almost impatient, and made some movement, as if they were still discussing whether they should come in and ask.

Heizhuzhu and Lu Jinglu immediately stepped out to stop them.

Just kidding, when the three of them came in, they were almost beaten out by Yaoyue who didn't know the token. If those big desert guys under Heizhu's men came in, they wouldn't need to take action from Yaoyue, and Lianxing might just do it without saying a word.

Fortunately, with such an interruption, most of the parting sorrow between the two of them dissipated.

Lu Jinglu stood at the entrance of the valley, watching Heizhu get into the carriage neatly, and raised her hand to wave her.

And Heizhu got into the car and sat firmly, without immediately lowering the curtain, said: "Okay, I really have to go, you can just send it here, it's cold outside, don't catch cold, go back quickly."

In order to prevent her from worrying about herself after going on the road, Lu Jinglu had no choice but to turn around and go back.

The carriage kicked up a cloud of sand behind her, and then drove away.

In Yihua Palace, Bai Feifei, who is almost six months pregnant, is playing chess with Lianxing.

They saw her come back and raised their eyes at the same time.

It was Lian Xing who spoke first.

Lian Xing asked her: "His Royal Highness is gone?"

Lu Jinglu nodded: "Yes."

Probably seeing that she was still reluctant, Lian Xing thought about it, then stood up and said that she couldn't go on with this game of chess, so it's better to change people to continue.

"Feifei is too smart." Lianxing said, "I play against her, but every time I fail."

Lu Jinglu: "..."

She told the truth: "Then I'm even worse, I don't even know the rules."

Lianxing squinted her eyes and smiled, saying to try it, maybe Feifei can't stand it if you are like this.

Bai Feifei also nodded: "That's right, try it, beginners are generally lucky."

Lu Jinglu couldn't agree with the two of them, so she had no choice but to go and sit down to replace Lianxing, and continued to fly down with Bai Fei.

Afterwards, the two of them explained the rules of Go to her in a very simple way, so that she, a layman, finally knew how to place pieces on the chessboard.

But if you know it, you know it, and when it really happened, Lu Jinglu still looked blind.

In the end, she was killed by Bai Feifei, and she didn't quite understand how she died.

"No, no, I really can't play this." She admired Bai Feifei so much that he could regard playing Go as a relaxing activity for entertainment and relaxation. "I have only played for half an hour, and I have a headache."

When Lian Xing heard this, he burst out laughing and said, "When my master taught me to play chess with my sister, my sister said the same thing."

Lu Jinglu: "..." I didn't expect Yaoyue and I to have something in common!

"But playing chess is quite exhausting." When Lian Xing said this, he paused and turned his head to look at Bai Feifei, "Now that you are a little older, you might as well find something else to pass the time, so as not to worry too much and affect you. Fetal gas."

The pair of sisters in Yihua Palace both know medical skills, and their level is quite high.

At least Bai Feifei had admitted before that he was inferior to the two of them in this respect.

But the problem is, apart from playing chess, Bai Feifei really doesn't have any other hobbies. If she wants her to observe the flowers and plants in Yihua Palace when she has nothing to do like Lu Jinglu, and take care of them by herself, then she absolutely can't do it. arrived.

So Bai Feifei also had a headache.

"If I don't play chess, what else can I do?" In the first ten years of her life, she was almost always suppressed by hatred, and she had no time to cultivate any interests, and she never had a normal hobby like the daughter of an ordinary family childhood.

Lu Jinglu listened to her question, pondered for a long time, and said, "Then how about another way?"

Go needs brainpower, so it is better to play backgammon.

She told Bai Feifei and Lian Xing about this proposal, and the two listened and tried to play a game.

As a result, after playing a round, Bai Feifei only had one thought: "It's too simple and boring."

Lu Jinglu, who was ridiculed for his IQ by the way, was very sad, and asked: "Then what is difficult for you?"

Bai Feifei thought about it, and said it was purely luck, so she couldn't count.

Lian Xing also nodded in agreement: "This kind is really difficult."

Lu Jinglu thought about the black jade chessboard for a long time, and suddenly thought of a board game that in her eyes is completely dependent on luck - flying chess.

She said wait, I thought of something, I'll go get a pen and paper.

Lian Xing immediately called a maid and told her to fetch a pen and paper.

Lu Jinglu added: "It needs a bigger paper, it's better...it's better to be about the size of this chessboard."

After the maid answered, she quickly took what she asked for, and it turned out to be a stack of paper bigger than a chessboard.

After Lu Jinglu took it, he took one, cut it into a square, and then divided it into four parts according to the appearance of flying chess in his memory, starting from the four corners, and then refined it a little bit.

It has to be said that she is especially good at doing this kind of thing that can be branded as ignorant in modern society.

In less than a quarter of an hour, she took out the bottom of the flying chess and marked the advance and retreat numbers on it.

"This thing is called—" She hesitated for a while, and felt that it was difficult to explain the name of flying chess, so she changed its name, "Forget it, let the weaker one go home."

Bai Feifei and Lianxing: "Huh?"

"That's right, the three of us now, if we call each person, we'll be all together." Lu Jinglu began to explain the rules, "Then draw lots to decide who goes first, who goes second and third, and who goes last. After the decision is made , start throwing the dice, as many dots as you throw, you will advance as many grids as you want.”

But the amount of progress is not the end of a round, it depends on what is written in the grid after entering that grid.

"Whoever gets to the finish line first in the end wins."

With the IQ of Bai Feifei and Lianxing, of course they can understand it as soon as they hear it.

Lian Xing said: "This really depends on luck."

Bai Feifei said: "But it's not all about luck. For example, Lian Xing and I can control the number of dice we throw."

Lu Jinglu: "..." Damn, martial arts are really amazing.

Seeing that she was choking, Lianxing narrowed her eyes again and said, "This problem is easier to solve. We can find another person who specializes in throwing dice. Let her do it all, isn't it fair?"

That's right, in this way, cheating can really be prevented, Lu Jinglu thought happily, thinking that since this is the case, he can start playing now.

The three of them called two court ladies, one counted and the other was in charge of throwing the dice. They happily played several rounds, and they didn't stop until Yaoyue finished practicing.

As a result, what Lu Jinglu didn't expect was that Yaoyue, who looked noble and glamorous and had no interest in any trivial matters, was actually aroused by this simple flying chess and decided to join in instead of the maid who made up the numbers.

So far, the two hosts and two guests of Yihua Palace have formed the habit of playing flying chess together in the afternoon.

Lu Jinglu and Yaoyue had better luck, most of the time the final winner was one of them, which made Lianxing and Bai Feifei even more reluctant to give up the game.

Then I played for a month, and a year passed during the period.

No matter how fun the game is, playing it for a month is a bit tiring, especially when Lu Jinglu often wins.

"I won't play anymore, you guys find someone to replace me." On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, she finally decided not to accompany her, "I'll go outside to see the flowers I grow."

The three ancient people who were addicted to games didn't stop her at all, and pulled someone to continue without raising their heads.

But when she came back after watching the flowers, the three of them also stopped.

Lu Jinglu was surprised: "Why don't you play anymore?"

Lian Xing looked at Yaoyue, then at Bai Feifei, and said quietly: "After you stopped playing, sister always wins, so sister doesn't want to play anymore."

Although Yaoyue doesn't play, Lian Xing and Bai Feifei can still continue, but how can I put it, after they can no longer try to beat the person who has always beaten them, they also feel boring.

Lu Jinglu: "..." Are you two too determined to win or lose?

"Then what are you going to do next?" She asked Bai Feifei, "Aren't you going to feel bored again?"

Bai Feifei sat there, thought for a moment, and said, "In two days, it will be Shangyuan, right?"

"Yes." Lianxing and Lu Jinglu said in unison, and even Yaoyue nodded.

"Then why don't we take advantage of the festival and go out for a walk?" Bai Feifei asked, "It doesn't take much to go, just go to Luzhou city to have a look."

Lu Jinglu was actually a little lazy to move, but Lianxing responded first before she gave any advice.

Lian Xing said yes, then go out and join in the fun.

"But my sister doesn't like to go out." Lian Xing said again, "The three of us... Ah Lu, are you going?"

Lu Jinglu didn't really want to go at first, but when she thought that if she didn't go, she would have to face Yaoyue alone in Yihua Palace and have dinner with Yaoyue, she immediately changed her mind: "I'll go too. "

There is no way, even though she has been living here for a month and a half, she is still a little scared when facing Yaoyue, who is usually completely unsmiling.

Lian Xing was not surprised by her answer at all, and said with a smile: "Then the three of us will go to Luzhou City to take a look. I went there once a few years ago, and it's quite interesting."

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, after the three of them had lunch, they got into the carriage and set off for the city.

It was cold winter, and there was ice and snow outside Xiuyu Valley. Because of her weak body, Lu Jinglu wrapped several extra clothes before getting into the car.

To be honest, at this time, she actually misses the warm spring weather in the South China Sea.

There is also the person who looks colder than ice and snow, but actually has an extremely warm embrace.

What she didn't know was that the person she was thinking of also happened to arrive in Luzhou on the day of Shangyuan.

The author has something to say: I will strive to be earlier tomorrow!
