Guizhen

Chapter 322
Song Chen is smart?Lu Zhen pursed her lips and thought for a while, and felt that he was barely stupid.Sensible is still sensible.

"I don't know when Brother Snail will come back." Tianluojing frowned slightly, and said melancholy: "He gave me a lot of embroidery thread before, and it was really easy to use. I specially sewed a purse for him as a thank you gift." .”

"What are you in a hurry for?" Mu Xiang covered her mouth and snickered, "It's just a day or two."

"Really?" The snail spirit was refreshed, "When I get back, I'll find a piece of silk to wrap my purse more beautifully."

What a naive goblin who doesn't know how to feel sad.Lu Zhen looked at the snail essence and smiled with curved lips.

……

The car drove into Mingshifang and turned two turns. The muffled voice of the coachman came in, "Miss Wu, Mother Dai is waiting at the gate of the house."

Lu Zhen's heart skipped a beat.You don't need to ask to know that her father must be ignorant with her grandmother.

Mu Xiang looked at Lu Zhen with worried eyes.

Alas, if her father is not sensible, she has to be more sensible and understand her father's share.Lu Zhen took a deep breath and smiled to comfort Mu Xiang. "Zuo is just cleaning up the mess for Daddy. It's no big deal."

It's not easy for a girl.I was exhausted from pretending to be dead, and I couldn't rest well when I got home.Mu Xiang's eyes were full of distress.Fourth master, fourth master, why can't you let the girl save some time?

While speaking, the carriage stopped in front of the Lu residence.Dai Momo hurriedly raised the curtain, poked her head in and said to Lu Zhen, "Fifth Miss, just after you left, Zhu Shenji came to ask to see you. Right now, she is still waiting in the small flower hall. Look..."

ah!It's not the fourth master.Mu Xiang felt guilty for blaming a good person.By the way, what was Zhu Shenji born for?Did something happen to the magician?

Lu Zhen had the same question as Mu Xiang.Frowning and nodding slightly, "I'll go see him right away."

Nanny Dai agreed, and ordered the little maid behind her to go to the small flower hall to exchange refreshments, and to go to the kitchen to explain to the cook that the guests might want to keep a meal.

After everything was arranged properly, Lu Zhen was supported by Mu Xiang to the small flower hall.

Zhu Yinghuai has been waiting a little anxiously.I drank four or five cups of tea and ate three plates of snacks.If he left without waiting for Miss Lu Wu, wouldn't people think he was here for dinner?

However, Lu Mansion's dim sum is really delicious.The sweetness is just right, and the meringue is also authentic.Zhu Yinghuai stroked her belly lightly and burped.After a while, there will be another half plate of jujube cakes.

Just as he made up his mind, he heard the sound of small footsteps outside the door.Zhu Yinghuai quickly straightened her waist and sat upright.After the door opened, he stood up slowly, saw that the person who came was Lu Zhen who was staggering at every step, and bowed deeply, "I've seen Miss Lu Wu."

While speaking, doubts arose in my heart.If Yuanyang is injured, it can be adjusted and nourished.Why does Miss Lu Wu look like she won't live long?Could it be that, as rumored in the market, she...can't make it through the Chinese New Year?

Lu Zhen smiled weakly, "Zhu is a genius, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come here without any problems." Covering her lips and coughing a few times, she sat on the head with Mu Xiang's support.

"Not too long." Zhu Yinghuai sat down after him.

The servants and maidservants filed in, removed the refreshments and replaced them with new ones.Zhu Yinghuai's eyes flicked across the plate of dim sum, and her eyes suddenly lit up.This time there is crispy yellow alone!
Must try.

Lu Zhen seemed to be extremely tired, she sat and rested for a while, and then she opened her lips and asked, "I don't know what can be learned from Zhu Shenji's sudden visit?"

One sentence brought back Zhu Yinghuai's wandering thoughts. "I dare not take it as a word of teaching."

As he spoke, his demeanor became respectful and sincere.

Xiao Zhu couldn't cough when he was talking, so as not to disturb him.Lu Zhen made a gesture of all ears.

As if encouraged, Zhu Yinghuai's eyes became more serious, "You must know that I am from the Zhu family in Fengyang."

Lu Zhen nodded slightly, "The Zhu family in Fengyang produces many talented people. My master also highly respects the Zhu family in Fengyang." Just as Zhu Yinghuai smiled proudly, Lu Zhen said again: "Of course, what I admire is The old ancestor of the Zhu family. In recent years, the talents of the Zhu family have withered, which is really embarrassing."

Hearing this, Zhu Yinghuai's shoulders loosened.

Miss Lu Wu really didn't give any face.But this can't be blamed on others, Fengyang Zhu's has indeed declined.Some tribesmen even find other ways of life.In terms of technique, he has long lost his previous persistence.

For example, Zhu Daoyin, the grandfather of the living dead Princess Liang in Liangzhou, was one of them.

Concentrating on studying and taking the imperial examination, I finally earned myself a good future.Especially after the Zhu clan became Princess Liang, Zhu Daoyin thought that his descendants would be able to rise to the top.But I didn't expect it to be the beginning of decline.Until now, I can only go back to the Pianan corner of my hometown in Fengyang, and live a farming life where I work at sunrise and rest at sunset.

Isn't this a kind of irony?
Zhu Yinghuai twitched the corners of her lips and laughed at herself.In the past, he sighed for Zhu Daoyin's fate, but now, he is ashamed of his previous confusion.

From the beginning to the end, he was just a pawn on the Zhu family's chessboard.

Use it if you can, and put it away if you don’t.Doesn't take up any space.

Perhaps... the Patriarch never expected that this chess piece of his would have his own considerations and calculations.

To be in the capital, broaden your horizons.The current him is no longer the country boy who treats his family like a god.

Zhu Yinghuai took a deep breath and fixed her gaze on Lu Zhen, "A while ago, I received a letter from home." She took out a folded envelope from her sleeve pocket, unfolded it and handed it to Mu Xiang, "It's a letter from the head of the Zhu family."

Lu Zhen gave Mu Xiang a wink, and Mu Xiang took the letter out of the envelope and handed it to Lu Zhen.

Lu Zhen read word by word silently.Zhu Yinghuai's voice continued, "Patriarch ordered me to find a way to rescue Prince Liang. But... you know, Prince Liang is in the deep palace. Man said I don't have that ability, even if I did, I would never Will serve the rebellious officials and thieves."

Lu Zhen twirled the letter paper lightly with her fingers, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is your Patriarch a second idiot?"

ah?Zhu Yinghuai swallowed at a loss.Shouldn't Miss Lu Wu praise him for his loyalty?How did you abduct the second idiot?

Besides, the second idiot can't be the head of the family either.

"Either your Patriarch is stupid, or you are stupid." Lu Zhen shook her head bitterly, "Such a confidential matter, why don't you send someone to persuade you face to face? Write a bad letter and send it away? This is too unscrupulous."

Zhu Yinghuai blinked her eyes.He actually thinks that Miss Lu Wu's words are quite reasonable, what's the matter?

Not all of it makes sense.But... "too indecent" means...

Zhu Yinghuai drew a big question mark in her heart.

Lu Zhen's scolding voice didn't stop, "Also, look at the wording. It's not rigorous enough, and it doesn't have the momentum that a patriarch should have. It's easy to say that it's not serious. Maybe it's the second idiot who wrote the letter." With a flick of his wrist, the letter paper Trembling and shining brightly for Mu Xiang to see.

Mu Xiang kept nodding her head, "You are right, you are the second idiot."

"That's right!" Lu Zhen turned her eyes to Zhu Yinghuai who didn't know what expression to put on, "The most terrible thing is that this is a Taoist talisman! You didn't see it?"

symbol?Zhu Yinghuai shook her head slowly and hiccupped.Did Miss Lu Wu lie to him?Obviously a letter...

"You, you're just too full." Lu Zhen said with disapproval: "Too full and sleepy, slow-witted! I can't figure out any of the things I should think about."

So, blame him for being "full-fed"?

Zhu Yinghuai swallowed her saliva with a "gudong".He mustered up the courage to come to Lu's mansion to ask for help.He didn't even tell his master about such a big matter.I just want Miss Lu Wu to help me come up with an idea.

It's all because Miss Lu Wu can talk to the nobles in the palace.Even if this matter goes through the sky, at least he can keep his own branch from getting involved.

Zhu Yinghuai breathed out sullenly.

As a result, Miss Lu Wu scolded the Patriarch first and then scolded him.Before the two fools, after being full.

Tossing and turning is no good.

No matter, no matter.Just count and count.Just figure things out.

"That... this... what talisman is it?"

Zhu Yinghuai humbly asked for advice.Lu Zhen hurriedly covered her lips and coughed lightly.Mu Xiang patted her on the back again and again, "Our girl just came back from the palace, she is really tired. Or... Zhu Shenji will come to listen to you after a few days?"
