Lintai Storm Record

The income and expenditure account books, and so many eyes staring up and down, the affairs of the household department are not easy to do. Besides, we people can't make up our minds, but we just do the things at hand. "

"Rongzhou will definitely not be able to pay taxes this year. The local victims are still eating relief food. The seeds of the spring are only planted, and they are exchanged for coins and handed over. What do they eat?" Lu Guan knew that Song Qianzhi had some friendship with Lin Shu. I also know that this point of friendship is not deep, since Song Qianzhi took the top spot in Lintai, the relationship between brothers in the past, those who should be alienated have to be alienated.

Lu Guan only thought that the little friendship of eating, drinking and having fun when we were young, without going through any major events, can go so deep.

"Originally, I eat enough food for free, and I will never die from starvation. Don't worry, Master Lu, we still have this spectrum of Master Yang." Lin Shu put down his smile, put down the tea cup, put down one of his crossed legs, sat up straight, took Come out with some authority and face Lu Guan.

"Do you treat people like animals? Work when you're full, eat when you're done, and just ignore your brain?"

The last bit of smile disappeared from Lin Shu's face, he glanced at Song Qianzhi out of the corner of his eye, Song Qianzhi was drinking tea, obviously he was listening, but he didn't intend to speak.

Lin Shu said: "Are you two representing the secretary province or the emperor, and you are here to attack me?"

Song Qianzhi put down his tea, looked at Lin Shu calmly, and said, "It's not a challenge, just ask me, why are you nervous?"

Lin Shu spat and said dissatisfiedly, "Master Lu doesn't seem to be asking casually."

Song Qianzhi smiled and said: "He is like this, I will talk about him when I go back."

Lin Shuyue felt it was weird, and it was hard to ask, like a leopard that was suffocated and had nowhere to get angry. He raised his hand to touch his ears, took another sip of tea, and then calmed down.

"Rongzhou has no money or food. Can the imperial court not know about it? But it's not up to the Ministry of Households to decide how to collect the taxes of these three states. It's really the emperor's will." Lin Shu lowered his voice. His room was not very good. Through the light, before noon, the light was very dim, he sighed, the shadow swept across his face, revealing [-] points of bad luck.

"Who doesn't know that Rongzhou was hit by the plague? You think that Yang Wen is so kind-hearted that it doesn't count if he gets the grain seeds, and he spends a lot of time to pull rapeseed and fruit seedlings to Rongzhou, all because of that side." Talented people have passed the famine, and when they are afraid of hunger, they have something to plant, and they don’t rush up in a swarm.”

Song Qianzhi heard the way, a little unbelievable.

"You mean, Yang Wen already knew that taxes would be raised when the grain was planted in the past."

Lin Shu was speechless, and rolled his eyes: "He is the big steward, and the emperor thought of money-related matters, so the emperor will be the first to tell him. Even if the emperor can't think of it, he will think of it for the emperor." A trace of hesitation crossed Lin Shu's face. In the bottom of his eyes, he finally said, "I won't hide it from you, anyway, sooner or later you will know that from the time the emperor ascended the throne to now, the national treasury has been empty, and when there is a disaster, it will be over. No one is more afraid of local disasters than our household department." In this battle, Qin Yuning of the Ministry of War relied on the fact that Bai Guyou was still around, so he was not in a hurry, but it was our Master Yang who had no money."

"If there is no money, let the rich pay." Song Qianzhi leaned back.

Lin Shu stared at Lu Guan defensively. Seeing that Song Qianzhi was still holding Song Qianzhi's hand, he licked his lips and felt the taste.

"What's the matter with you two?"

Song Qianzhi played with Lu Guan's fingers, and glanced lightly at Lin Shu: "You can do whatever you say."

"Fuck." Lin Shu swallowed, "You are too courageous..." After clarifying this relationship, Lin Shu was much more at ease, and the look in Lu Guan's eyes was no longer so defensive.

"I said why Master Lu is like your servant." Lin Shu wanted to tease a few words, but seeing Song Qianzhi's refusal to answer, he was not sure what he meant, fearing that the horse would slap the horse's leg.

Over the years, Song Qianzhi found him much less often, and it was enough to send some valuable gifts every year and festival.Lin Shu had been fascinated by it since he was a child, and he was already used to this kind of fake way of responding to the situation, so he didn't take it seriously at first. Later, Song Qianzhi served as a young prisoner in the Secretary's Department for two years, and gave him an extra birthday gift every year. It's expensive, but it's all about what you like.Lin Shu just loves to collect jade, and the jade that Song Qianzhi gave each year in the past two years is one in a million, with a price but no market.

What's more, Song Qianzhi's identity is there, Lin Shu also comforted himself, he is not a good seat in Lintai, since he has become the emperor's eyes, he can't get close to his former brothers, and they also have the principle of avoiding suspicion. Understand.

Occasionally someone is the host, and Song Qianzhi does not show up when invited to the house for a drink.There are not many chances to see Song Qianzhi at the banquet, ten out of ten times he is in the palace.

So today when Song Qianzhi came to find him, Lin Shu couldn't decide whether to speak the truth with him or to speak the truth.

Looking at it now, Song Qianzhi still didn't treat him as an outsider after all.

"Then I won't go around in circles with you. Anyway, Master Lu is also yours." Lin Shu whispered, "There is still some money in the treasury, but it is not enough. It is reserved for Liu Yun's army. The three tax increases The state was decided by the emperor. Quzhou is the queen's natal family, and it was the fiefdom of the former emperor when he was the prince. It should be more, and the queen is gone. What's the matter with the emperor asking the old man for food? Needless to say, Lingzhou, It has always been a land of prosperity. Mengzhou was originally there, and Sun Junye cried poor several times when he went up to Zhezi. During the first two months of defending Fengping Gorge, the Zhenbei Army ate food from several neighboring counties. You were there at that time. I must know. As for Rongzhou..." Lin Shu rubbed his hands, approached Song Qianzhi, and said cautiously, "Anyway, I have been hungry for more than half a year, and I will not die of starvation. The grain grown this year is enough to eat, not to mention increasing. Tax, only that the relief food was borrowed from other states, and the food was paid back.”

As soon as Lu Guan moved his lips, he was about to speak, but Song Qianzhi glanced at him, and swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Lin Shu thought it was interesting, and smacked his lips and said, "It can be scraped anyway, don't worry, Yang Shangshu knows it well, Rongzhou has been hungry for a long time, and he will be grateful for such a bite, as long as it doesn't..." Lin Shu lowered his voice, Made a mouth shape.

That is an "anti" word.

"Besides, if you feed Rongzhou with one mouthful, you can feed ten more soldiers. Isn't that worthwhile?" Lin Shu smiled and looked at Song Qianzhi's face while drinking tea, and saw that Song Qianzhi didn't smile with him. He frowned slightly, and was about to say something when Song Qianzhi pulled the corners of his mouth away, revealing a faint smile.

Lin Shuxin let it go.

"I don't care about business now. It's actually a private matter to find you today." Song Qianzhi changed the subject, as if he was just listening to gossip.

Lin Shu didn't care too much: "What's the matter?"

"Don't you have two jars of good wine here?" Song Qianzhi said, "I bought a piece of jade in Songzhou and brought it to you. Give me your two jars of good wine."

"When did you get better at this?"

Song Qianzhi glanced at Lu Guan.

Lin Shu understood, and rubbed his thumb against the corner of his mouth. Originally, he wanted to ask Song Qianzhi why he got involved with the man, but when he thought that Song Qianzhi was several years younger than him, and he was the empress dowager's nephew, he couldn't control the marriage. It's up to him, can he live peacefully in Lintai for so many years, and still can't get Lu Guan, who was transferred from Quzhou, has no family background, no money and no one?

"Okay, I'll have someone send it to you later, where? I heard you had a falling out with your family." Lin Shu pursed his lips and pointedly said to Lu Guan, "Lord Lu, we are dedicated to you , to make such a big sacrifice, you must listen to him."

Lu Guan ignored him.

Lin Shu didn't care about such a small matter, knowing that Song Qianzhi was thinking of bringing him a gift when he went to Songzhou, Lin Shu felt at ease, and only thought that Lu Guan was an ignorant person from a small place.

On the carriage, Lu Guan remained silent all the way. Song Qianzhi had something on his mind, and he was not in a hurry to communicate with Lu Guan. He went to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites to meet five friends. The other four friends went to the Pipa Garden for drinks at night.

Song Qianzhi sent people to the Pipa Garden early to say hello and set aside an elegant room.

We only had lunch in the afternoon, and after eating outside in the street, Lu Guan, who had been sullen all this time, still bought some snacks.

In the evening, when he was about to go out, Lu Guan said that he would not accompany Song Qianzhi.

Song Qianzhi knew what these Beijing officials were thinking after listening to him all day, and he felt uncomfortable, and he didn't force it, so he just asked Lu Guan to wait for him to come back at night.

Song Qianzhi left on the front foot, but Lu Guan regretted it on the back foot.

Pipa Garden is more elegant than Zhang’s quiet residence. Lu Guan knew that Song Qianzhi was going to eat wine, at most watch songs and dances, and ask a few girls to accompany him. He thought that Song Qianzhi was drunk and had no one to take care of him. Maybe someone helped him over and hugged him, and he was a little angry with himself.

Song Qianzhi's background determined that the friends he made were all sons and gentlemen who didn't know the sufferings of the world. These people also read sage books, but they couldn't empathize with the suffering of ordinary people at all.Eating two steamed buns and steamed buns is a pain in the sky. Like Lin Shu, he still considers whether he will starve to death, which is considered to understand the people's feelings.

Lu Guan couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to go out, but was pushed back just as he opened the door.

Xu Ruiyun kicked the door back with his foot.

"You are so courageous that you even dare to sleep with Taifu Zhou's grandson." Xu Ruiyun kept on talking in surprise, and Lu Guan choked on the first sentence.

Lu Guan sat down irritably, with a bad tone: "What's the matter with you?"

"Did the young master tell the emperor about Mr. Zhao Yu's affairs?"

"do not know."

"Didn't you follow him all day?"

"He went into the palace to see his mother, and I didn't go with him." Song Qianzhi agreed with Lu Guan, and in front of Fu Mingshao, he wanted to create an appearance that although they were together all day long, they had their own thoughts.It doesn't matter if you get bored, Song Qianzhi wants to speak ill of Fu Mingshao in front of him, and he knows this.

"Then who did he go to meet with?" Xu Ruiyun took out a teacup, poured tea for himself, and raised his eyelids to look at Lu Guan.

"You think I'll tell you?" Lu Guan was in a bad mood and didn't want to say much.

"We are on the same boat now, be careful when I draw my salary from the bottom."

"You won't." Lu Guan said decisively.

Xu Ruiyun choked for a moment, and slammed his teacup on the table: "Why can't I, when I was under General Bai, I killed people like hemp..."

"Zhao Yu's life and death are uncertain, and you are not comrades who were born and died together. You have tried your best to protect his name. Now that you know what was written in the last emperor's will, you will desperately protect Li Xuan."

Xu Ruiyun seemed to be pinched by someone's throat, unable to speak for a while, finally laughed, shook his head, and drank a cup of tea by himself.

"I still have something to do. You want to drink tea and drink it yourself."

Xu Ruiyun grabbed Lu Guan and refused to let him go.

"I'm asking you something."

Lu Guan looked at Xu Ruiyun suspiciously.

"Sit down, sit down." Xu Ruiyun forced Lu Guan to sit down, and he kindly poured Lu Guan a cup of tea.

Lu Guan was not in the mood to drink at all.

"You asked Zhou Xian to send me a message. I can find someone from the Zhenbei Army. Don't worry. Now, Lord Lu, can you please tell me what you plan to do." Seeing that Lu Guan didn't speak, Xu Ruiyun's voice was extremely low , pressed his elbows on the table, moved closer to Lu Guan, stared at him closely, "Is it yin, or is it hard?"

☆, upheaval ([-])

Lu Guan didn't answer for a long time, Xu Ruiyun waited impatiently, his bent middle finger knuckles knocked on the table restlessly.

"I don't want to raise that lunatic as a pig. The pig can still be eaten when it grows up. What is a lunatic raised for..."

"Brother Xu, be careful."

"There's no one else here." Xu Ruiyun said in his heart, even if he said these things in front of Li Xuan, he didn't understand.Zhou Xian was always running outside, but yesterday Li Xuan was entangled with Liu Pingwen. Liu Pingwen is a scholar, he is better-tempered than this old man, younger, but he doesn't have the short temper of young people, and he is very patient with Li Xuan.

That's great, that lunatic Li Xuan is attached to Liu Pingwen.

"If things come to fruition, his status will be unspeakable in the future, and madness is not incurable. There are people out there, and if he is not cured now, it does not mean that he will never be cured." Of course, Lu Guan can see Xu Ruiyun's love for Liu Pingwen. That little thought, but Lu Guan naturally wouldn't talk about this kind of thing.

"Yes, yes." Xu Ruiyun said, "With you, Mr. Lu, I won't go around the bush. We're going back to Dongming Palace, do we want to ask them for help?" After a pause, before Lu Guan could answer, Xu Ruiyun continued, "In my opinion, King Dongming can't be of much help. Just tell him to stand still and not hold back. Besides, with his little army soldiers, if he really wants to fight head-to-head, it's not enough to give the imperial army a hard time. Besides, he is far away in Qizhou, so he can't be sent. Useful. You and I won’t talk about it, what does Xiaohou mean? Did Zhou Taifu leave a bunch of people who can be used for him?”

After finishing speaking, Xu Ruiyun felt that the words were misleading again, so he hurriedly explained: "I didn't want to inquire about any news, but since I got on the same boat, I also went to the capital with you. , but there are more than one group of people. Now that I have shown my face, it is too late to disembark. My father has passed away long ago. It is also a honor to have this opportunity to return to Beijing to visit my mother. Now the court has made it clear that no matter Song and Xun prefectures, I can't go back either, I want to find something in the future..."

"I'll arrange it for you."

After receiving Lu Guan's words, Xu Ruiyun heaved a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll replace wine with tea, thank you in advance."

Lu Guan was thinking about chasing Song Qianzhi, and drank tea absent-mindedly.

However, Xu Ruiyun was still nagging, and Lu Guan thought again, now he is not comfortable with himself when he gets caught up in the middle of chasing and laughing, so he might as well go later and pick up Song Qianzhi when he comes back.So Lu Guan patiently chatted with Xu Ruiyun for a while, and inadvertently learned from Xu Ruiyun's heart-to-heart confession that he also had a few brothers in the Ministry of War. Unfortunately, they were all fallen nobles, and they couldn't say much in the court. Kind of works.

"Sigh." Xu Ruiyun sighed, "Last night, I peeked out from my room, and I didn't expect that there are so many officials who are obsessed with sensuality, and these Beijing officials have been ruined by wine." He snorted coldly and said angrily, "The wine and meat of the rich family stinks. Thinking of Songzhou and Xunzhou, I don't know what the situation is. I'm afraid it's more ominous. Liu Zhixing is a literati..."

There is no need for Xu Ruiyun to say anything later, the two of them are very clear.The original garrison in Xunzhou was only 2000 people. When there was chaos in Xunzhou, Xu Ruiyun led people to track down Zhao Yu's whereabouts, and lost many elite soldiers.Xunzhou was to the south of Songzhou, and Songzhou was raided by Liu Yun's former "Black Di Army" in disguise, and the battle was very miserable.Xunzhou, who bears the brunt, doesn't know what kind of person it is, but Xu Ruiyun, for the sake of An Liu Pingwen's heart, picks up all the good things.

"When we can communicate, we have to ask someone to inquire about it." After all, Xu Ruiyun inherited his father's business and stayed in Xunzhou for many years. Apart from his home in the capital, Xunzhou is Xu Ruiyun's second hometown.As Xu Ruiyun spoke, his expression was a little sad.

"You can settle down in the capital first, and I have something to trouble Brother Xu."

Xu Ruiyun stared at Lu Guan sharply, "You guys are going to do big things. Since you're on this boat, of course I have no reason to refuse."

Naturally, Xu Ruiyun would not refuse, Lu Guan has been secretly observing Xu Ruiyun ever since he met him in Liaoren's village.This person is straightforward, he has some Jianghu habits, but he has some contacts in the army. Although he is not familiar with senior officers, it is also important to grasp the movements of middle and lower ranks of sergeants.After escaping from the Liaoren, each other had counted their fates, at least Lu Guan could be sure that Xu Ruiyun would not be able to stab a knife in the back.

Just a few of them can't accomplish much, but the beacon is important, and the network connected to it is also necessary.

With more Xu Ruiyun, there will be an extra pair of eyes in Zhenbei Army.

What's more, the situation couldn't be worse. Fu Mingshao had already left his youthful ambitions behind him, and the emperor was at odds with him. Not only did he not think about checking and balancing the power of the Queen Mother and Li Xiang, but he also used the Queen Mother Zhou who supported him to ascend the throne. considered an enemy.Li Xiang is an old fox, but he has the ability to rule the world. In the few years after Zhou Taifu's death, the gentry who refused to accept Fu Mingshao were all subdued by Li Yeyuan.

He was not included in Rongzong's will.

Lu Guan was the first to break the silence, and said calmly: "Brother Xu, what concerns do you have, but it's okay to say."

Xu Ruiyun shook his head with a wry smile and sighed: "Is there any need to say it? We are few people, and the opponent is powerful. The last card in his hand is still a lunatic." Xu Ruiyun's expression showed full hesitation, and finally asked, "No Is there any room for maneuver?"

In the dim light and shadow, helplessness and contradiction cast a shadow on Xu Ruiyun's handsome face.

Lu Guan stared at him, and said in a deep voice: "Last year, Rongzhou and Quzhou were hit by disasters one after another. At the end of the twelfth lunar month, the north was almost hit by a snowstorm. The city was sealed off, and the surrounding victims were not allowed to enter.

Xu Ruiyun has been in Xunzhou, which is located in the southernmost part of Dachu, and he is busy with military affairs every day. This is the first time he has heard people talk about these situations in detail.

"During the autumn harvest in Rongzhou, there was heavy rain for months, and the food was moldy and rotten. The relief food distributed by the imperial court was robbed. The plague spread in the city, and there was a shortage of food and medicine. It was necessary to rely on the local bandits to send food. In order to appease the people of Rongzhou, Mr. Song, Cheng Rili chased after Yang Wen, Shangshu of the Ministry of Accounting, and after more than two months of urging, the Ministry of Accounting finally distributed the food. This morning, I accompanied him to the Ministry of Accounting, do you know what the Ministry of Accounting said?"

Xu Ruiyun naturally didn't know.

Lu Guan didn't mean to ask him to answer, but just continued: "If you feed one person in Rongzhou, you can feed ten more soldiers."

"Is human life such an algorithm?!" Xu Ruiyun's eyes widened and he clenched his fists, "You bastard."

"That's how the emperor calculates." When mentioning Fu Mingshao, Lu Guan's tone was indifferent. All his anger and the little expectation he had for Fu Mingshao were completely wiped out during the few days he was imprisoned in the palace. "A farmer who can work in the fields can feed ten soldiers who went to battle to kill the enemy. If they can feed the disaster victims in Rongzhou enough to go to the fields, let them work hard like cattle, and they will die of exhaustion and starvation." To die is to serve the country with allegiance.”

"Fart!" Xu Ruiyun yelled angrily, and was glanced at by Lu Guanjing, his nose flared, and it took him a long time to suppress his anger. The hand on the table had bulging veins on the back of it, and it was tightly held.

"What happened to Heidi's invasion in Songzhou and Xunzhou? You saw it with your own eyes. Liu Yun was deprived of his official position, and now his daughter is going to be the queen. The grand ceremony of the empress ceremony and the expansion of conscription are all money."

"Why did the emperor allow Liu Yun's old troops to trample on his people? Is he crazy?" Xu Ruiyun said, "Could it be that your majesty doesn't know about this..."

"It's absolutely impossible." Lu Guanjiang Song Qianzhi was ordered to take the commanding sword of the late emperor to inspect the four states. This sword caused many parties to scramble for it, and it was finally rubbed by Liu Suguang. He briefly talked about the forgery of the fake sword.

Xu Ruiyun opened his mouth wide when he heard this, and then realized that he was too stupid, so he closed his mouth, and it took him a while to recover.

"Just to overthrow the queen mother? That's all human life...all his own people..." People in the world regard the monarch as their father, and the benevolent monarch regards the people as their sons. Fu Mingshao can do this just to secure the throne .The absurdity in Xu Ruiyun's eyes gradually dissipated, and he let go of his fist, "It is said that the emperor is ruthless, but it is true."

"What can't be imagined, how the fourth prince's legs were crippled, and how the eldest prince was demoted as a commoner and exiled to the North, didn't Brother Xu hear about it?"

"It's all rumors, just listen to it after dinner. It's not surprising that there have been royal infighting in the past." Xu Ruiyun raised his forehead, "It's just unexpected that as the king of thousands of people in the Great Chu, he regards human life as worthless for his own selfish rights. "Xu Ruiyun wiped his face vigorously, dispelled the night he experienced in Songzhou, raised his red eyes, and said to Lu, "Thinking about it now, I really don't know who I was fighting for in the past ten years Go into battle."

"The past is over." Lu Guan stood up, patted Xu Ruiyun on the shoulder, and took a cloak from the shelf.

Xu Ruiyun's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he turned his head to ask him where he was going.

"Where do you say I'm going?"

Only then did Xu Ruiyun realize that if he hadn't interrupted him, Lu Guan would have gone after Song Qianzhi a long time ago.

Immediately, Liu Pingwen's delicate and delicate face appeared in Xu Ruiyun's heart, he stopped drinking tea, and walked out with Lu Guan shoulder to shoulder.

"Let me tell you, I won't say a single word of what you told me just now." Xu Ruiyun hooked Lu Guan's shoulder and got very close to him.

Uncomfortably, Lu Guan pushed Xu Ruiyun one meter away.

Xu Ruiyun: "...?"

"What kind of style do two big men hook up, don't you think it looks ugly?" Lu Guan went to the stable to lead the horse, and Xu Ruiyun came here on foot, so the two of them naturally couldn't go the same way.

When Lu Guan had already left on his horse, Xu Ruiyun stood on the path outside the other courtyard, looked up inexplicably at a young branch protruding from the courtyard above his head, and touched his forehead.

"Still talking about me? Didn't you hook up with a man a long time ago?!"

After arriving outside the Pipa Garden, Lu Guan realized that riding a horse was redundant. Fortunately, Song Qianzhi brought a servant from another courtyard, and Lu Guan asked the servant to take the horse back. He went up and sat in the carriage until Song Qianzhi came out after eating. .

The Pipa Garden is in a deep alley, next to the imperial palace, within a radius of five miles, there is no place for sex except here.

Lu Guan sat in the car with his eyes closed and rested his mind. He kept drawing circles on his thigh with his fingers, drawing names of people that only he himself understood.

Suddenly, a gust of fragrant wind rushed towards him.

"Zhu Xing, you should be careful, why did you drink so much, if it wasn't for me..." A 27-year-old young man helped Song Qian get into the car. When he looked up, he saw a man with a gloomy face sitting in the car. The coachman had been waiting, the young man paused for a moment and woke up, when Lu Guan reached out to pick it up, the young man immediately withdrew his hand and asked him to take good care of him.

The giggling laughter outside quietly faded away, and the carriage started to move.

Song Qianzhi almost slammed into Lu Guan's arms, restless in the carriage, groped Lu Guan's body, pinched his chin, his eyes were like a mountain spring full of spring, and Lu Guan was originally lively. His brain was also stupid, he grabbed Song Qianzhi's hand that was clenched in his chest, and pressed it on his abdomen.

Song Qianzhi pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, and opened his mouth to speak, but Lu Guan lowered his head to listen to what he said, Song Qianzhi's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

By the time Lu Guan realized it, it was already too late, Song Qianzhi's throat rolled and he spat all over him.

·

In the middle of the night, Master Lu and Master Song, who were staying in Li Yeyuan's other courtyard, went back with a foul smell.

Li Yeyuan touched the warm teacup with his fingers, took a sip, and asked the housekeeper, "Who did he meet today?"

"Who is it? It's inconvenient for the servants to follow. In the morning, Young Master first entered the palace, went out to the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Rituals. In the evening, he had a drink in the Pipa Garden. When he came back, he was so drunk that Lord Lu carried him out of the car. The two of them were in a mess, and the younger one immediately had someone prepare hot water to bathe them. It's just that Master Lu didn't let anyone serve him, and the young master was so drunk, it must be Master Lu who helped him."

"Well, have you returned to Andinghou's Mansion?" Li Yeyuan suffered from severe back pain after sitting for a long time. After all, he was old, so he leaned his right elbow on the table, adjusted his sitting posture calmly, and looked a little pale.

"No, the young master hasn't been back for the past two days."

Li Yeyuan tapped the table twice with two fingers, and ordered the housekeeper to keep watching, then sent him out.

He sat on the chair for a long time, then suddenly came back to his senses, and looked back at the gray ground.

After a while, a girl in a light blue long dress came in, followed by a silent servant girl. The girl was holding a small but inappropriate bun behind her head. Dark green emeralds dangled from her jet-black hair.

"Master, the snow ginseng stewed by Madam for you, drink it while it's hot." The slightly trembling voice revealed the uneasiness in the girl's heart.

The lid of the soup pot was lifted, and a hot smell of medicine spread out. The girl's green onion-like hand had just left and was suddenly held.

"Ah..." She opened her eyes wide, knowing that the cry was unreasonable, she quickly stopped her voice, and carefully glanced at this powerful man.

For her, this is a man who is too old.

"So afraid of the truth?" The corners of Li Yeyuan's lips curled up, with a few wrinkles. His eyes were gentle, and he glanced at the servant girl.

The servant girl backed away with a wink and closed the door.

"grown ups……"

"Zijin, what's your name?" Li Yeyuan's voice.

The girl's voice was as thin as a kitten with its nails clipped and unable to resist: "Master."

·

After taking a bath, Song Qianzhi vomited twice again, the last time he vomited so much that his bile came out, Lu felt distressed, and for the first time ordered his servants to cook some hangover soup.

The hangover soup was blew by Lu Guan until it didn't burn his mouth. When Song Qianzhi was in the bath, Lu Guan's hair was completely soaked. Because he vomited out the contents of his stomach, he was quite calm and let him open his mouth. Just open your mouth and let swallowing be swallowing.

A bowl of hangover soup was half fed, Song Qianzhi frowned, turned his face away, he refused to drink the little soup at the bottom of the bowl.

The servants packed up the soup bowls and went out, watching the clumsy Master Lu rubbing his hands on the little lord's stomach with curiosity, his whole face was wrinkled.

At this time, Master Lu looked up if he felt something.

The boy hurriedly closed the door, the shadow flickered from the window, and disappeared at a trot.

Lu Guan went to blow the lamp, Song Qianzhi hugged his waist tightly and did not let go, so Lu Guan had to stretch out one arm for him to hold, spread his feet apart, and almost split a fork to reach the lamp on the table.

Song Qianzhi slept very restlessly. Lu Guan was already very tired in order to bathe the drunk in the bathing pool, and he felt sleepy when he touched the bed. Lie down on his heart again, the tip of his nose rubbed against his sensitive place, making Lu Guan angry.

At the second watch, the unlucky Mr. Lu was woken up for the fourth time, with veins twitching on his forehead, and he couldn't bear to turn Mr. Song over.

After tossing and turning for two or three times, Lu Guan realized that Song Qian's face and neck were very hot. Lu Guan gasped for breath, sweat dripped from his temples, he frowned in confusion, and reached out to touch it.

Song Qianzhi screamed unbearably, straightened his waist and pressed Lu Guan even tighter.

I'm not drunk here, I clearly used some kind of medicine in the Pipa Garden.Seeing his distressed look, Lu felt suffocated and couldn't bear to let go. Song Qianzhi didn't let go, his eyes were half-opened and half-closed, the corners of his eyes were red, and his eyes were moist like a deer.

Lu Guan made up his mind and tore two pieces of cloth from the bed curtain, and tied Song Qianzhi's hands and feet to the head of the bed, fearing that if he walked with his front feet, he would fall off the bed with his back feet.

Song Qianzhi struggled a lot at first, but when Lu Guan gently touched his forehead, he blinked in extreme confusion, with tears oozing from the corners of his eyes, obviously unconscious, rubbing his waist back and forth on the bed.

Lu Guan wrapped him tightly with the quilt, put down the bed curtain, so that there was no trace of abnormality from the outside, and then tied up his robe and went out.

There was a gust of cold wind when the door was pushed open, Lu Guan's eyes cleared up, and he asked his servants to find the butler from another courtyard, and after a while, the servants said that the butler was not there.

Lu Guan asked people about the residence of Imperial Physician He, but of course the servants would not know, so he had to go to Xu San's house at night to find Zhou Xian.

Fortunately, Zhou Xian was at Xu San's home, didn't go anywhere, and was washing clothes in the yard.

"Young Master is sick? Is it serious?" Zhou Xian wiped his hands on his clothes, and without a word, he took Lu Guan to find someone. He was originally the Qilin Guard, and he knew where the officials in the capital lived.

Zhou Xian was surprised when he heard Lu Guan's words.

"If you drugged the young master, how could you let him go? Who sent him out?"

Lu Guan was concerned and confused, and was stunned.

"I do not recognize."

Zhou Xian shook his head: "We can only investigate tomorrow, and wait for the young master to wake up and see what's going on. In fact, there is no need to find a doctor."

It's hard to say that Lu Guan has already let Song Qianzhi go out three times. Seeing how uncomfortable he is, since he has noticed something is wrong, he can't really toss him so hard that he can't get out of bed, it's too hurtful.

Imperial Physician He was disturbed so late, seeing Song Qianzhi like that, he didn't say much, and immediately went to make medicine.

When Song Qianzhi took the medicine and fell asleep, Lu Guan rubbed the bruises on his wrist and stroked them with his thumb. Song Qianzhi's mouth was slightly curled up, with an aggrieved expression, but he obediently placed his forehead on his hand. I rubbed it up twice.For a moment, Lu Guanji's anger from the night was appeased, his heart softened, he lowered his head and touched Song Qianzhi's sweaty forehead, got up and went out to find Imperial Physician He.

"The medicine was taken very hard. Luckily, Mr. Lu asked the young master to take it out a few times first. The medicine has a calming effect. Now I may not be able to sleep well. Don't worry too much. It will be fine in half an hour."

Lu Guan clenched his fists, his nails sank into his flesh, he didn't realize it.After seeing Imperial Physician He away, when Lu Guan came back, he saw Zhou Xian was still standing in the courtyard waiting for him. Zhou Xian looked tired when he called him out from Xu San's house. Think what's going on here.

Lu Guan stood for a while and walked over.

Almost at the same time, Zhou Xian heard footsteps, turned his face, and asked Lu Guan: "Where did you go tonight?"

"Pipa Garden." Lu Guan told Zhou Xian how he went to pick up Song Qianzhi at Pipa Garden at night, and thought that Song Qianzhi was drunk and didn't find out that he was drugged in time. Lu Guan couldn't help but feel guilty.

Zhou Xian said: "How could you think of the things they noble sons are playing with? It is considered that the young master is lucky. If he is given this kind of medicine, he should be sent to someone's couch instead of being sent to the bed without incident. Stuff it into the carriage. Next time you see the person who sent him to the carriage, will Mr. Lu recognize him?"

Lu Guan nodded.Of course he recognized it, and he wanted to chop off the man's hand at that time.

Naturally, Zhou Xian didn't know what Lu Guan was thinking, so he said a few words of comfort, now he could only wait, his staying here would let Li Yeyuan's people know what happened tonight.

What Lu Guan means is that there is no need to publicize this matter. It is not clear who drugged Song Qian. After drugging, he originally planned to do something to him. Why did the young man interrupt this plan again? He did it unintentionally. Whose game was broken was still one of the people who set up the game, but temporarily changed his mind for some reason.

"I'll come back tomorrow morning, and Lord Laolu will be there tonight."

Lu Guandao: "I am the one to help you."

Zhou Xian snorted, felt the meaning of Lu Guan's words, didn't say anything, patted him on the shoulder and left the other courtyard.

The housekeeper had already returned, and the whole small courtyard was brightly lit, and it was already very late. Lu Guan was sick to his stomach because of Song Qianzhi's vomiting, and the doctor was just used by Song Qianzhi, so he had just sent him away.

After dismissing the housekeeper from the other courtyard, Lu Guan entered the door and closed the door heavily with his palm, no one heard him sigh heavily.

There was still a blood-pulling smell in the room, Lu Guan went to open a window, wrung out the wet cloth, sat on the couch with one leg bent, and lifted the quilt.

Song Qianzhi was sleeping curled up, frowning tightly.

He had already changed two pairs of thin silk underpants, and his thighs were sweating again, and the little fabric was better than nothing, and he was pushed up.

Lu Guan took a deep breath, wiped Song Qianzhi's neck with a cold wet cloth, and rubbed it along his neck to his body. He didn't know where he touched. on the legs.

"Chasing the stars." Lu Guanyu stopped him, veins popped out on his forehead, and the back of his hands became stiff from exertion. He slowed down his voice and coaxed, "Hey, let me wipe it."

Song Qianzhi was very dissatisfied when his arm was pulled away, and wanted to pounce on Lu Guan's body. Lu Guan had no choice but to hold Song Qianzhi's shoulder, straddle his lap, and help Song Qianzhi in that layer of unlined clothing. wipe sweat.Compared with Song Qianzhi's scorching body, the wet cloth is undoubtedly very cool, like ice cubes in the scorching heat, making Song Qianzhi hum in comfort.

Lu Guan washed the cloth, folded it into long strips, his eyes dimmed, and he leaned down along Song Qianzhi's thin waist, soothing his lover's pain while gently kissing Song Qianzhi's forehead.

Song Qianzhi's forehead was soaked with sweat, and Lu Guan whispered in his ear the love words that Song Qianzhi would never say when he was awake.

"Are you comfortable?"

"I won't let you drink anymore."

"Zhu Xing, does my husband hurt you?" Lu Guan's eyes showed an infatuation that he didn't realize, his eyes seemed to be stuck to Song Qianzhi with endless spider threads, and the handsome face close at hand was half painful and half happy , Song Qianzhi straightened up, but Lu Guanshou
