Chang’an’s First Beauty

Chapter 38 Firelight (catching insects)

The white moonlight dragged the man’s figure very long.

Although the candlelight in Chunxitang’s inner room was dimmed, the lights on the hanging corridor were still bright. He walked in slowly, and there was silence inside. The silver hook on the bedside fell and the curtains were hanging down. She breathed smoothly. Obviously Is asleep.

Lu Yan used his eyes to measure Shen Zhen’s back, and couldn’t help asking himself: Just such a big man, a sixteen-year-old girl, is really worthy of her last life. In this life, will she be planted on her?

Thinking of this, he felt itching at the roots of his teeth inexplicably, and even drinking two glasses of cold water couldn’t suppress the fire in his heart.

After calming down, he remembered his recent actions. Whether it was to test Fuman with the incense on Fuman or test her with words today, it was not like what he would do.

It shouldn’t be what he did.

The man’s brows constricted, his face heavier than the night outside.

As for Lu Yan’s temper, he actually couldn’t rely on him. He has been accustomed to being pampered since he was a child, and he has always lived the days when he wants the moon in the sky, and others dare not pick him stars. If it hadn’t been for the imperial examination to become an official, he had suffered a little bit, but I still don’t know what his temperament would be.

Speaking of which, the third girl from the Shen family was probably the first one that made him unable to resist.

Not to mention being unable to fight, Lu Yan even felt that he could not provoke her.

Actually, a little girl, what can he not figure out? The wicked and wicked people in Jingzhao Mansion’s prison didn’t dare to think about him when they saw him.

Intimidation and profit entice him to do everything, as long as he is cruel, he can also make Shen Zhen obediently like a bird in a cage.

But he couldn’t do it.

Besides, he really made her cry, but he was the one who suffered in the end. What about her? Wiping away the tears, she was the one who went to bed early and got up early.

In vain, he has always thought that he has the ability to plan tactics, and the specialness to Shen Zhen is only because of his heart disease. The results of it? He did not have this disease in his last life, and his results were not much better…

She died at the age of twenty-seven, and she married someone else, which is really great.

Lu Yan walked to the bed, unwrapped his waistband, stepped back and lay down beside her slightly, turning over twice.

Since Shen Zhen became his outer room, he has developed the ability to hear the strings and know the elegance. When he frowned, she knew that this person’s weird temper had come up again.

With a heart move, she turned around and hurriedly moved her bedding onto him, and said softly, “My lord, it’s cold at night.”

These five words do not know what magic power is. It was like a warm current in the fairy spring on the horizon, directly poured into his heart, nourishing his heart and lungs.

Without changing his expression, he gave a low “um”.

Perhaps because the wind had just blown, Lu Yan’s throat was slightly itchy, and he involuntarily coughed twice.

Shen Zhen got up and dropped his shoes on the ground, and was so busy to bring him a glass of water, “Is your lord tired and sick?”

In Shen Zhen’s eyes, although Lu Yan’s temper could not bear to look directly at him, she still recognized his “business ability.” When he was busy, he often felt too late to sleep, too late to eat, and she thought that his body might be beaten by iron.

Lu Yan sat up, took it, took two sips, and said in a deep voice, “I woke you up.”

Listening to this cold tone, who would have thought that there was still awkwardness in it?

Shen Zhen did not hear it either. She really didn’t care about sleeping. After all, she spends most of the time in Chunxi Hall without going out, having nothing to do, and sleeping in the afternoon.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhen couldn’t help but say sincerely: “It’s okay for me, but the adult’s body is more important.”

Lu Yan looked down at her eyes, they were shining, and there seemed to be stars reflected in the lake. However, the clearer, the more it made him feel like singing a one-man show. It seems that happiness and anger are all his own business.

He squeezed her face weakly and sighed, “Go to sleep.”

The two lay down together and fell asleep together. He habitually put his hand on her waist.

Time passed like a white horse, and soon it was the Spring Festival.

Although Yangzhou’s grandeur for celebrating the Spring Festival is not comparable to Chang’an, at least the grandeur of Wanjia’s lights can still be seen. From the south gate to the end of the Wansui Bridge, there will be lights of blessings.

The Twenty-Four Bridge’s dress is even more gorgeous. The bridge and the bridge are connected by thick hemp rope, and flags and ribbons of various colors are hung on it, including rouge, magenta, daisy blue, emerald green, and autumn fragrance. Next to each ribbon, there will be a lantern of the same color.

They lit up together, extremely shocked, as if they had really come to the Nine Layers of Heaven.

Today, Zhao Chong hosted a banquet at home and specially invited Lu Yan and Fuman to go.

They got into the two carriages, and Mother Liu looked around and asked Fuman in a low voice, “Miss, why don’t you see Steward Yang today?” Steward Yang, who was talking about Yang Zong.

Fuman curled his lips and said, “Mother doesn’t know the old man? He must be worried about Aunt Qin.”

Seeing this, Mother Liu laughed, and comforted Fuman: “The lady, don’t get sulky, I see, the master has you in my heart now, otherwise I won’t reward you so much on New Year’s Eve.”

As soon as the words fell, Fuman’s eyes blushed, “It’s okay for the mother to not mention New Year’s Eve. When I mention New Year’s Eve, I think of the matter of the master taking Aunt Qin secretly out of the house.”

Mother Liu said “Oh,” and hurriedly said, “I’m here with that person on New Year’s Eve, isn’t this coming to accompany the lady on Lunar New Year? The old slave has something to say, I don’t know if it should be said.”

Fuman wiped the corner of his eyes, “Mother is my closest person, just say it.”

Mother Liu hurriedly said: “This man, I have always liked a well-measured woman. She is usually a little jealous. It is a taste. If the lady is facing the Chunxitang person every day, she will get bored every day if she doesn’t keep things together, like A man like Mr. Wei, who picks noodles and makes a big shot, is destined to have more and more people in the yard. The lady will be angry today, and will she be angry tomorrow?”

Fuman nodded, and said after a long while, “Thank you.” In his tone, he couldn’t tell the bitterness.

Even Mother Liu shook her head.

I have to say that Fuman’s acting skills have recently reached the point of perfection. For example, going to Chunxitang to intercept people, such as crying to Lu Yan in front of Mother Liu, such as grabbing housekeeping rights, it seems that she has done everything that can make the house smug.

Therefore, in Mother Liu’s mind, the little lady is quite motivated. Otherwise, she wouldn’t say so much politely.

The carriage stopped in front of the governor’s residence, and Lu Yan took Fuman into the governor’s residence.

——

Chunxi Hall.

Yang Zong said to Shen Zhen: “The master asked me to take Ms. Shen and leave immediately, don’t wait for him, it is said that the city is meeting together.”

Shen Zhen was a little nervous.

If he said he was afraid that he would drag him off and send her away, he was afraid, because she was in danger and let her go first.

Thinking about this, Shen Zhen said: “What is happening today, but there will be danger?”

It is false to say that there is no danger. Zhao Chong is suspicious. Since Nie Yuan and Pang Shu entered the capital, he has been extremely sensitive to everything around him, and even the number of soldiers in the government has doubled.

Said that the brothers and sisters have not changed, but I don’t know who this soldier is defending.

At present, the imperial power is in full swing. Although the saint does not allow the governor to recruit excessively, the soldiers stationed in Yangzhou by Zhao Chong should not be underestimated. What’s more, according to what they know, Zhao Chong still has a lot of private soldiers, and excellent soldiers. ordnance.

Head-to-head, naturally it is not enough.

“The reinforcements sent by the saints are outside the city right now. Let’s pass and we will be safe.” Yang Zong was also able to avoid the heavy and light. Shen Zhen clearly asked if there would be danger today, but he just added a condition.

Jiancheng, it’s still far from Yangzhou, can’t it be reached by overturning mountains and ridges?

Shen Zhen knew that it was better than anything if he didn’t hold him back, so he hurriedly took Tangyue and Yang Zong to leave Luyuan.

Yang Zong took Shen Zhen all the way to the west. The road they walked under their feet was not the way they came.

As soon as she left Yangzhou City, Shen Zhen saw a large number of refugees who were still dragging their families. Most of them were women, children and children. They were as thin as wood, as if they would faint if they took one more step.

Seeing this situation, Shen Zhen realized why the court wanted to deal with these corrupt officials, advocate clean government, labor, and taxation. This is like a burden on the people. If it is too heavy, the people will no longer be able to stand up, or It can only rise up.

After running for a day and a night, they finally reached the end of Wangshan Mountain. Shen Zhen stood on the top of the mountain and looked in the direction of Yangzhou City. “Sergeant Yang, did he take the waterway or the official road?”

As soon as the voice fell, I suddenly heard a few “booms”, and on the Yangzhou Canal not far away, a large flame of fire rose from two boats…
