Chapter 247: Troubles on the Plain
In the Chunhua Hall, bamboo and silk were blown, and drums and music were noisy.
In this exchange of wine and wine, all the guests enjoyed themselves.
Lou Shixun was also among them, only smiling but not smiling.
This time he took over the three armies and led the troops back. Not only did he end the war that wasted people and money, but he also brought back the old agreement between the two countries, which was in full swing.
But in fact, the task assigned by Lou was not completed.
As soon as he learned that Lu Xiu committed suicide in front of the three armies, his uncle immediately sent him a secret letter. Without opening it, he guessed that it was a scolding and blaming speech. After opening it, it turned out to be true.
In addition, he was given the opportunity to conduct overt and covert inspections in the military to collect personal and material evidence of Lu Xiu's treason.
Nothing was found.
I failed to do either of the two things I was told. I was under a lot of pressure and my life was not as easy as it seemed.
On the way back, he deliberately slowed down.
But no matter how long the journey back was, one day he finally arrived and he returned to Jinye.
Fortunately, the Lord was only busy with commendations and banquets today, and neither my uncle nor my father had time to scold him.
In the eyes of outsiders, he is a general who has returned with great achievements, so he is surrounded by people who admire and flatter him all night long.
People always like to hear good things.
He is no exception.
My heart, which had been dull all afternoon, gradually found unexpected relief in the compliments and compliments.
Lou Shixun was in a good mood. He drank and clinked glasses with his colleagues, and he became really happy.
After finishing the glass, a palace official came forward and filled a wine jug for him.
Xu was a newcomer to the palace, very unfamiliar and timid. When someone passed by her, she accidentally bumped into her. Her already trembling hands did not hold the wine bottle, and she spilled the wine. onto his clothes.
"Please forgive me, general!"
The palace man looked at the wet hem of his clothes, and knelt down with a pale face, not daring to raise his head.
Lou Shixun frowned, feeling annoyed, but looking at everyone looking over, he waved his hands impatiently.
"Okay, okay, let's go down."
The palace man did not go down, but he braved his courage and raised his eyes slightly: "Shall I take the general to the private room to clean up?"
The hem of his clothes was pulled.
Lou Shixun's slightly drunken eyes looked over in confusion and saw the person clearly, and the familiar name stuck in his throat.
Outside the palace, Lou Shixun was led by the palace servants to the elegant room one after another.
At the door, the palace servant went in first. He looked outside and found no suspicious people entering. He did not forget to bolt the door from the inside.
As soon as he turned around, the young palace man had already thrown himself into his arms and hugged him tightly.
The warm fragrant nephrite came into my arms, and my heart palpitated.
"Azhen——"
Lou Shixun hugged her back, lowered his head and nibbled on her lips eagerly.
Song Yuzhen hugged his neck, stood on tiptoes, and tried her best to respond.
Lou Shixun picked her up by the waist and walked straight inside, peeling off her clothes as he went.
Behind the curved screen of thin wood depicting walking in the snow in search of plum blossoms, there are two overlapping and incomprehensible figures, drifting with the waves.
……
After a hearty night, the clouds stopped and the rain stopped.
Song Yuzhen did not dare to forget the business and reached out to pull her clothes, but was pulled back into her arms by an arm.
“Why do you always feel like I’m here to sleep with Wanhua?”
Song Yuzhen stared at him, angrily: "Do you have any conscience when you say this?"
Lou Shixun lowered his head, and her eyes were red, and she became serious: "What's going on?"
" Do you know that the tiger charm you are holding is fake!"
"What?"
Lou Shixun sat up straight and stared at the delicate beauty in disbelief.
"Fake? How could it be fake?"
Lou Shixun was already panicked: "If this is fake, how can I communicate with the Lord?"
"Communicate?" Song Yuzhen also said Sitting up, "It was Liang Yu who told the Lord personally that Lu Xiu had lost the tiger talisman. She had no choice but to find a fake one."
Lou Shixun wrinkled his eyebrows and stared straightly. Staring at the person in front of him, he tried to recall that Wang Tingyue personally wanted to give this tiger charm to him——
"I understand!" Lou Shixun punched the couch hard.
This is basically a conspiracy between Liang Huan and Wang Tingyue.
Deliberately gave the fake one to himself and kept the real one. When he handed over the fake tiger talisman to the Lord and was convicted, Wang Tingyue would then offer the real one to claim credit!
How insidious! How despicable! How shameless!
Lou Shixun gritted his teeth.
——
Chunhua Hall.
Wen Jin walked up to Cao Ruomi with a white porcelain cup and said respectfully: "My Lady, this is the kudzu soup you asked me to make."
Cao Ruomi put down the white jade chopsticks in his hand. , glanced at the main seat, and said softly: "Send it to the Lord."
Wen Jin lowered his head and did as he was told.
The Queen Mother picked up the teacup, raised her eyelids slightly, and smiled slightly: "The Queen is always so considerate and virtuous."
Cao Ruomi turned around and said with a smile: "This is my duty as a concubine. "
The Queen Mother: "During this period, the Queen will inevitably have to worry more."
Cao Ruomi lowered his eyebrows and was very respectful: "Please rest assured, Queen Mother, no matter what. Whether it is Hanguang Hall or Liangfeng Hall, I will take care of it.”
With such assurance, the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.
"Get out!"
As he spoke, there was a low cry, and the white porcelain cup fell to the ground, followed by the sound of the palace people kneeling down and begging for mercy.
The sudden change shocked everyone present to crane their necks and look over.
Wen Jin's forehead touched the ground: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Gao Qian stood with a dark face, his eyes were cold, and he kicked the person on the ground on the shoulder: "You bitch! You deserve to be killed!"
Huang Wei held up the handkerchief, bent down, and kept helping Gao Qian wipe the splashed soup.
Cao Ruomi stepped forward quickly to plead guilty: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Don't blame her. I ordered her to send it. This is all my fault——"
Gao Qian slightly hooked Lips, cool smile: "Queen, please save it."
The Queen Mother raised her eyes and looked over, her eyes sinking slightly: "Huang Liangyuan, why don't you help the emperor to change clothes?"
Said After that, he looked at the crowd with a faint smile: "It's just a clumsy palace servant who knocked over the soup cup. Don't let her ruin this happy atmosphere."
There was a person below who was good at observing people's words and took the lead in leading others to talk and laugh again, as if this unpleasant episode had not happened.
Cao Ruomi helped Wen Jin up and said to Gao Qian: "I will accompany your majesty--"
Gao Qian walked away before finishing her words, not wanting to look at her for a second. .
Huang Wei twitched his lips in embarrassment, bowed his head to Cao Ruomi and the Queen Mother and said, "I will serve the Lord."
After that, he quickly chased after the person who left.
The Queen Mother said: "Since he is followed, the Queen will stay here."
Cao Ruomi nodded obediently: "Yes."
I didn't want to turn my eyes and met a pair of concerned eyes. Eye.
But with a snap of his fingers, Cao Ruomi lowered his head, the smile on his lips remained the same, but with a bit of indescribable bitterness.
Wen Jin endured the pain in her shoulder and helped Cao Ruomi sit down again.
Cao Ruomi sat down and glanced at a certain location below.
There was some worry in the soft voice: "Why did Zhaoyi suddenly leave the table and not come back for so long?"
Hearing the sound, the Queen Mother also turned her head and looked over. There was no one at the main seat. .
Wen Jin seemed unintentional and replied: "When the slave came back, she happened to meet Xianglan in front of Zhaoyi. She said that Zhaoyi felt that the air in the palace was stuffy and went outside to get some fresh air."
< br>The Queen Mother frowned.
Breathable?
Cao Ruomi hesitated and said: "There are many foreign ministers and few female relatives today, let alone any acquaintances..."
The Queen Mother's face became ugly.
He is a restless person. When he followed Lu Xiu, he was not clear with the emperor. Now that he has got his wish and climbed up to the emperor, seeing that he is going to use Wang Tingyue, he starts to have other thoughts...
Great ambition.
The Queen Mother had a cold face: "You haven't sent someone to look for it yet?!"
I promised to give you three updates, but it has not been fulfilled. I am really sorry o(╥﹏╥)o
I really write every day. . .
I write very slowly. I am really afraid that my talent and learning are shallow and my writing skills are not good enough to tell the story clearly and completely.
In addition, if you have any opinions, please feel free to submit them~
