Chang’an’s First Beauty

Chapter 70 (Don’t jump)

(Continued from the previous chapter Dreamland.)

In October in Chang’an, light cold lingered and desolate.

How many people were promoted, so many people were demoted, but no matter how the prince toss, Emperor Cheng Yuan was still practicing in retreat, and even some concubines from the harem were connected to the Taoist temple.

Whatever you do is to lose your body.

Although the waves and treacherous clouds in the court seem to have nothing to do with the deep-rooted Zhen Guo Gong Mansion, Lu Yan knew in his heart that the military power held by the Lu family was enough to make the future new king jealous…

It’s just that he didn’t expect that his hidden worries would come so unexpectedly.

On October 27, snowflakes fell into frost.

Early in the morning, Father Fan, who was next to Emperor Cheng Yuan, smiled and sent an imperial decree to the government of Zhenguo.

In the absence of Lord Zhenguo, Princess Jing’an and Lu Yan, dressed in crown attire, stood in front of the incense case, preparing to take the order.

Recently, the eldest princess thought that the saint was planning to let Lu Jun lead the army, but she did not expect that this imperial decree was actually a marriage-giving decree.

Father Fan smiled and said, “Congratulations to the eldest princess. The marriage between Shi Ziye and Xu Qiniang was calculated by Ge Tianshi himself by the saint. It is a hexagram made by heaven.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yan accepted the imperial decree with a calm face.

Ye Lu was heavy, the princess was tired, her index finger touched her forehead, and she rubbed her temples heavily.

The mother on the side whispered: “The son of the world is here.”

Princess Jing’an sighed and whispered: “Call him in.”

Although the eldest princess had a good impression of Xu Qiniang, she was still a little bit dissatisfied when others interfered with her son’s marriage.

But no matter how dissatisfied in my heart, the imperial decree has already been issued, and no one can change it.

Lu Yan walked in, pursed his thin lips, and sat down directly.

Seeing his expression, the eldest princess couldn’t help but chuckle, “It’s so late, are you okay?”

Lu Yan picked up the teapot in front of him, lifted it high, poured tea into the cup, and handed it to the eldest princess, saying: “This marriage, please let my mother help me to drag it to the end of the year. Mother pretends to be sick.”

“What do you mean?” The princess frowned.

“Aniang, the son wants to marry someone.”

This remark is like a thunder on the ground.

The eldest princess held the tea cup’s hand for a while, and after a while, she said anxiously, “Who is it?”

Lu Yan squeezed the finger in his hand and said, “Shen Wenqi’s daughter, Shen family third mother, Shen Zhen.”

The tea cup fell with a sound, and turned around on the ground, and the water splashed all over the ground.

“Who are you talking about? Are you talking about it again?”

Lu Yan twitched the corners of his mouth like self-deprecating, and said every word: “My son said clearly enough, if my mother still wants to hear, then I will say it again. Shen family third mother, Shen Zhen.”

“You give me out! I didn’t hear anything today.” The anger in the eyes of the princess was clear.

The princess trembling with her fingers, quickly recalled what Lu Yan had done in the past few months.

Shen Jia Shen San…

No wonder, no wonder he, a son who has always been pure-hearted and low-spirited, suddenly raised a singer in Pingkangfang in spite of his reputation.

Take the top card flower prostitute as a shield, but he didn’t think it out?

The eldest princess stood up and said, “Don’t go out yet?”

Lu Yan bent down and picked up the tea cup.

The eldest princess’s voice became lower, but she brought a kind of unresistible majesty, “Lu Shiyan, for a woman, do you even cheat A Niang?”

Lu Yan said, “It is the son’s fault to fail the mother’s trust.”

“Are you asking me to find her personally?” The eldest princess sneered with red eyes, “Shen’s daughter is really good at it. Before Xuanping Hou Shizi was drunk by rumors, and later, Dali Siqing wanted to help him. Good prospects, but Lu Yan, I didn’t expect that there will be you!”

Lu Yan got up, licked his robe, knelt straight in front of the princess, and muttered: “She is innocent and does not know the world, and I am the one who forced her to be with me.”

He slowed down, and said: “Aniang has seen her and once praised her. If it weren’t for her family, she would not commit herself to me. You know the son’s temperament, if it wasn’t for me. Yes, no one can count me.”

As soon as these words came out, the eldest princess couldn’t help taking a step back.

What kind of temperament is her son? She, a mother, knows best, not to say that she is ignorant, but she also has a heart of iron and stone, so that he can protect it…

I’m afraid it’s really moved.

The eldest princess took a deep breath and tremblingly said, “Are you going crazy! Can’t you see the situation in Dajin now?”

Lu Yan chuckled. He has been an official for several years, how can he not tell?

Some things seem to be foggy, but if you want to know the truth, you just need to see who benefits the most. That Ge Tianshi has the ability to be true, after all, everything he expected happened one by one.

However, what is really worth thinking about is: Why does the Xu family get all the benefits when Ge Tianshi enters Beijing?

Now, many people can guess the relationship between Ge Tianshi and Empress Xu.

As for why everyone is pretending to be confused and willing to play with Queen Xu, there is only one reason. The prince in the palace died and was disabled. The eldest prince died of illness, the third prince committed a felony, and the seventh prince got smallpox and the ninth prince. Only five years old…

Without the intention of rebellion, apart from the current prince, Da Jin would never find a second prince who could be the crown prince.

“Aniang” Lu Yan said, “Son knows.”

What he was doing, he knew nothing more.

But what can he do?

If he really marries Xu Qiniang, I’m afraid he will no longer be able to look directly at those clear eyes in this life.

How can he say that sentence, Shen Zhen, I’m going to get a wife…

After a long while, the princess said: “Do you still know your identity? The elder son of the government of the town government, behind the whole Lu family, the future of the two bedrooms and three bedrooms is in your hands. You went wrong, what should they do? ”

Lu Yan raised his head and said every word: “The son will find a way to let the saint himself take his life back, and he will never hurt the Lu family.”

The princess’ eyes were red, and she choked: “In the past few months, I have been going to the Evergreen Temple to see the saint almost every day, but there are heavy soldiers guarding the gate of the Evergreen Temple. I can’t get in at all, and the saint does not even see me. How can you meet?”

“At the end of the year, when all nations come to the pilgrimage, the saint will definitely come out.” Lu Yan said again: “My son knows, A-niang doesn’t like being manipulated by Xuhou.”

Princess Jing’an gave a “hoh”, and then said: “Have you already calculated it, haven’t you? Even I have calculated it, right? Well, in that case, then I ask you, if it’s what you want, it won’t be possible. ?”

“If that’s the case, my son will recognize…”

If he tried his best and still couldn’t marry her, then it would be that he Lu Yan owed her.

The eldest princess stared at her only son. After a long time, she said, “I have a head ailment. You will find a doctor for me tomorrow.”

“My son thanked Aniang.” Lu Yan said.

The princess pointed at the door and scolded him angrily: “Get out! You give me out now!”

Lu Yan was on duty early the next morning.

Sun Xu saw him and raised his hand in a salute, “Master Lu, congratulations.”

Lu Yan’s expression was gloomy, and he could only gritted his teeth and nodded.

Yang Zong whispered: “Master, the news of the saint’s marriage is spreading. No one in Beijing knows, no one knows. What should the subordinates say about Miss Shen?” Right now, even Yang Zong can’t tell. The word “Madam” was called out.

Lu Yan raised his head, and for the first time in his life, he was ashamed and ashamed.

Although he didn’t treat her well, he never lied to her.

His throat moved slightly, and his throat said dumbly: “Keep it, don’t let her know.”

=================

“My lord, my lord!”

“My lord, wake up!”

Shen Zhen’s voice gradually approached from far away, and Lu Yan suddenly felt an unpleasant feeling of turning around.

Opened his eyes suddenly.

Gasping for breath.

Only then discovered that he was still sitting in the bathtub, the water in the bathtub had already become cold, he shivered, and he woke up completely.

The memories of past lives flooded into my mind like a revolving lantern.

In June, Ge Tianshi entered Beijing, and the sage entered to observe and practice…

In October, Shen Hao missed a murder, Zhou Shuan went to jail…

And he was married on October 27th…

Who would believe that Chang’an, which was calm in June, will undergo earth-shaking changes in less than half a year.

He glanced sideways at Shen Zhen, then glanced outside, and said, “Now, what month and day is it?”

“May 27.” Shen Zhen touched his forehead, and his black and white eyes couldn’t help blinking. “My lord, you didn’t burn it either?”

With a solemn face, Lu Yan stood up suddenly from the bathtub, splashing water, and Shen Zhen took a step back.

She turned her back and handed him the towel with her backhand, “You wipe your body first, don’t catch the cold.”

Lu Yan took it, and after a while, he walked over, bowed his head and kissed her on the forehead, “I have something to do, go out to the study first.”

Shen Zhen saw him put on clothes, bare feet and wet hair, and was about to leave, and took his hand with one hand, “My lord.”

“Is there anything else?” Lu Yan said.

“Your hair is still wet, no matter how busy you are, can’t you just wring your hair out before leaving?” Shen Zhen’s mouth was soft and soft, but his hands were hard. “Shoes, you didn’t wear it either. ”

The man paused, looked at her, and smiled relieved.

Shen Zhen wringed his hair dry for him.

Holding a lamp in her hand, Lu Yan looked at her and said, “Come to the study with me?”

“Together?” Shen Zhen looked at him in surprise, “Is there something important, your lord? It’s not compliant, right…”

Lu Yan glanced at her and sneered: “You know less? Let’s go and study ink for me.”

No one knows, Master Lu also had great difficulty, so he swallowed the sentence “When did you and me comply?”

The two walked to the study, and Shen Zhen stood aside, lowering his eyes to study ink for him, and his thin white wrists kept turning.

Lu Yan raised his eyes and was stunned.

For a time, the scene in the dream and the scene in front of me seemed to overlap.

He suddenly felt lucky.

Okay.

Fortunately, those things in the dream have not happened yet, and her temperament, look, is more lively than in the dream…

He picked up a wolf and dipped it in ink, and slowly started writing.

【In June of the seventeenth year of Qingyuan, there will be a plague in Chang’an City.

In July, there will be floods along the Yellow River.

In September, there was another ground movement in Shu. 】

After stopping writing, Lu Yan put the letter paper in front of Shen Zhen, “Look at it.”

Shen Zhen’s eyes were already big, but this stare was bigger and rounder.

She bit her scalp and persuaded her: “My lord…how can you write this? It is also against Jin’s law to spread rumors and make trouble…”

Lu Yan could not help but raised his eyebrows: “Is this a rumor?”

Shen Zhen nodded.

Lu Yan’s expression was dim, yes, no one would believe such an incredible prophecy, but it was precisely because no one believed it, so that after it happened one by one, Manchu dared not say a word about Tianshi Ge.

“Go and call Yang Zong in.” Lu Yan looked at her and said.

Shen Zhen hesitated for a while, then nodded and turned to go out.

Even though Yang Zong has been with Lu Yan since he was a child, and has always regarded his words as a standard, he can’t help but be surprised when he sees the absurd remarks in front of him.

He subconsciously said: “Is the master trying to capture this person who spread the rumors?”

“No.”

“Then master, is this…?”

“First find me a reliable old Taoist priest. If you can’t find the real one, find a fake one.” Lu Yan pointed the table with his index finger, and then said: “Remember the words above to make sure that the fourth day of June In the evening, it can be spread throughout Chang’an.”

He remembered very clearly that on the fifth day of June, Ge Tianshi was going to Qingyunguan to “practice”.

He wanted to see how he could confuse the saint if even the children of Chang’an City knew these words.

After the lights were turned off at night, Shen Zhen was anxious, she leaned close to the man and whispered, “Why do you want to write that kind of thing?”

Lu Yan told the truth, “I had a dream just now, and those things appeared in the dream.”

“that’s all?”

“Yeah, that’s it.”

The corners of Shen Zhen’s mouth twitched slightly.

He stretched out his hand and touched his forehead again, “I still think, sir, you shouldn’t take that cold bath.”

“Shen Zhen, if I say, all these things I dreamed of will happen, do you believe me?” Lu Yan stared at her with scorching eyes.

His voice was low, with a trace of bewitching. Knowing that it was impossible, Shen Zhen nodded inexplicably, “Believe it.”

Lu Yan said again: “I still dreamed that you belonged in your heart. You left me and married someone else.”

“This is impossible.”

The voice fell to the ground, and the little girl’s face was dyed crimson in the dark night.

The man gave her a smile, “Well, remember what you said.”
