Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 208

Fu Peng cleared his throat, took out a wax-sealed envelope from his sleeve, and said respectfully: "This is Mr. Dongling's letter to Lang Jun. You can read it right now." After speaking, he took a few steps back, Turning to the guard guarding the door, he handed over the letter.

Xue Yunyan raised his eyebrows in a rare way.

But I can't see that this owner knows the rules very well, he didn't deliver the letter directly like ordinary merchants who don't know the etiquette, but handed it over to the guards, and his behavior was quite educated.

The guard Li Sun stared at Xue Yunyan, seeing that his expression was unchanged, he stepped forward to accept the letter.

Fu Peng stepped back a few more steps, stood by the door, closed his eyes and hands, and did not make another sound.

Xue Yunyan didn't say much, he stood up and walked out the door with his hands behind his back. Li Sun had already picked up the sealing wax and spread the letter paper in front of his eyes.

Xue Yunyan only glanced at it, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

There was only one sentence in the letter.

One sentence, sixteen characters.

"Furong Hall, under the orange tree, there is a human skin. There will be a date on the third day of May."

The breath on Xue Yunyan's body instantly turned cold.

Almost at the same time, there was a sharp sound of "choking", and the cold light in the courtyard was dazzling. Li Sun already rushed forward, and a long sword with a cold glow was suddenly placed on Fu Peng's neck.

"Xin, where did you come from?" Xue Yunyan said calmly.

The light and distant voice seemed to be chatting with an old friend, and it seemed to be the long sword on the neck of the opposite person, which did not exist at all.

Fu Peng's face was already pale at this time, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

But soon, he regained his composure and remembered Qin Su's previous explanation.

Stabilizing his mind, Fu Peng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said tremblingly: "Heaven... the star of Tianfu, enters the temple, Ziwei star... the star meeting, will shine on the Tianxu and Dachao, and see the peach blossom stars. Mr. Lang is destined to be a man of extreme courage, good at judging tactics, and unparalleled intelligence, and his future is even more limitless. Mr. Dongling once asked, Mr. Lang's life is smooth and smooth, and the avenue is like a rainbow. ... Kong Gu foot sound?"

After finally reciting this awkward sentence, Fu Peng took a breath, and continued: "This is what Mr. Dongling told me to convey to my lord. He also said, 'If your lord is facing each other with swords and swords, you can reply with these words', He also said, 'When the gentleman hears this, he will laugh and leave'."

His voice trembled slightly, but he was still articulate. After he finished speaking, his face turned pale, and he stood stiffly in place, without any needless struggle.

There was silence inside and outside the room.

After a long time, Xue Yunyan's amber eyes were slightly rippled.

He suddenly opened his lips and smiled.

It's not the kind of ripples that the wind blows away from the water, nor is it a light smile, but... a laugh.

Although the laughter was not loud, it was like a stone falling into the water, causing turbulent ripples in the small courtyard.

Li Xuan's sharp eyes widened instantly.

Even after following Xue Yunyan for many years, he had already cultivated a mind as immobile as a mountain, so he couldn't help being extremely surprised at this moment.

His lord actually laughed out loud!
Counting from the days when he was with him, Li Sun had never seen Xue Dalang laugh, even the smile was cold.

What the hell is going on today?

Li Sun's wide-open eyes didn't blink, and after glancing at Xue Yunyan, they lowered them again.

"What an empty voice!" Xue Yunyan's brows and eyes stretched, as if suddenly enlightened at that moment.

Dongling Yelao was right, the sixteen-character gift was indeed a foreign language, since he was not anywhere in the world of mortals, why should he stick to where he came from?
As long as things are done, no matter where they come from, this is the attitude that Xue Yunyan should have.

Amid long laughter, Xue Yunyan raised his slender and powerful hand, and dusted it on his sleeve.

This movement seemed to be some kind of strange instruction, but after hearing a "choke", the long sword on Fu Peng's neck had already returned to its original place, and the guard who appeared like a ghost had also returned to its original position. by the door.

Xue Yunyan held both hands, and walked away without saying a word.

Fu Peng stood where he was, watching the other party's slender back disappear by the door, and seeing the door close again. He remained standing still until a breeze brushed the corner of his clothes, and the wet sweat in his palm , and finally gradually dried up.

With a "huh", Fu Peng fell down on the threshold. For a moment, he felt that his legs were weak, his back was wet with sweat, and his brows were also tightly frowned.

This is the first meeting.He thought sadly, and his face gradually turned bitter.

The girl has three letters left to Mr. Xue Lang, that is to say, this Mr. Xue will come back at least once, or twice.

Two more times, does it mean that the thing like being compared to the neck with a sword will happen twice more?

"Really...terrible." Fu Peng muttered to himself, frowning a little more, thinking about Qin Su's advice over and over in his heart, until he had enough rest, he finally stood up holding the door frame, and walked out slowly out of the house.

************************************
The east wind is curling, blowing past the plain green cloth curtain, but the cloth curtain is a bit sluggish, and there is no ripple for a long time.

In the twinkling of an eye, it was almost the end of April, and the weather in Shangjing was getting hotter, looking like early summer.

Lin was half leaning on the side of the screen couch, her face full of worry.

Her eyelids had been twitching for days, and it made her uneasy for no reason.

She looked at Mrs. Xu, who was sewing beside her, and frowned and asked, "What are you busy with? Why are you doing needlework all day long?"

Mrs. Xu stopped her work, raised her head and smiled and said, "I have nothing to do with you. It's almost the Dragon Boat Festival, so I thought about sewing some mugwort bags, and then tied some long-lived threads for the second lady, the fourth lady, and the sixth lady." Exorcism."

She was used to knowing Lin's temperament, so she didn't mention those concubines, she only said that the needlework was made for the children of the concubines, and it was just for their liking.

When Mrs. Lin heard this, she really had a smile on her face, and said in a harmonious voice: "So it's almost the Dragon Boat Festival, I didn't think about it."

"Madam is ill, we just leave these things to us, Madam rest is the most important thing." Sister-in-law Xu spoke softly, got up while speaking, tried the temperature of the teacup, and refilled some hot tea.

However, Mrs. Lin was reminded by her words, so she took the teacup in her hand and asked: "Are you enough for the multicolored strands? There are also wild rice leaves, sticky rice and corn. Have you ever asked someone to buy them?"

The Dragon Boat Festival needs to eat horn millet, and these are all necessary things for wrapping horn millet.

Sister-in-law Xu respectfully said: "Madam, don't worry, I've made a list and asked people to buy them. In a few days, I'll ask them to wrap a few and give them to Mrs. Tai and each lady to try the taste."

At this point, she laughed, covered her lips and said: "The second lady helped to prepare these, and she was going to wrap the stuffing with chestnuts, walnuts and green plums. She said everyone had worked hard on the journey north, although the master They are not allowed to eat fruits and vegetables in the filial piety, but the servants are not in this rule, so it is a good thing to give them a good life for a festival. I also asked people to prepare a lot of loose money, and planned to give them a reward during the festival. No. I said, the second lady is really kind and kind, no one in the whole house can beat her."
