Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 260 Lin Suxin

Lu Shangxue's expression was extraordinarily solemn, even a little serious, so all the compliments in those words lost their charming meaning, and only sounded solemn: "If I read correctly, this gentleman must He has a lot of background, so I only wrote down his appearance, but I didn't dare to act rashly."

"Oh?" Wei Shi's expression also became serious, "Is that so?"

Lu Shangxue nodded, moved closer to Wei, and said softly: "Mother, although I don't know about the affairs of the court, I can hear some clues when I occasionally listen to father and mother talking. Don't forget, mother. The Guangling War and the Lu family..."

She stopped talking at this point, shook her head towards Wei Shi, and said meaningfully: "In my humble opinion, it's better for mother not to interfere. Even if we want to investigate, we need to carefully interrogate the fourth younger sister. After she finds out where the truth is, she can make another plan. According to my guess, the fourth younger sister and Du Shiqi are probably being used by others. The plan of the person who set up the trap may not be a trivial matter, and it may even be more serious. Maybe, this situation is aimed at me on the surface, but it is aimed at someone else in the dark. The current situation is unstable, and my father also said that we should be cautious in words and deeds, so we should not act rashly."

After hearing what she said about the extraordinary gentleman, Wei Shi became thoughtful. Hearing what his daughter said, Wei Shi couldn't help feeling relieved, nodded and said: "My son is far-sighted and far-sighted, and he really lives up to my usual teachings. What do you say It's very good, and it's done very well. You don't need to worry about this matter, just leave it to your mother."

"Yes, Ah Hui always listens to her mother." Lu Shangxue said softly, with a slight smile on her face, but deep in her heart she was thinking in every possible way.

She still has a question, but she has never explicitly mentioned it to Wei Shi.

In Dongling Yelao's gift, he only mentioned the scheme of Lu Shangyue and Du Shiqiniang, but he didn't mention a word about that gentleman.

If this gentleman and Lu Shangyue and the others conspired together, with Mr. Dongling's great power, he would not know it.However, Mr. Dongling even mentioned Jiang's Ba Niang's hidden illness, but he chose not to mention this man. Could there be any deep meaning in this?
It was also for this reason that Lu Shangxue didn't dare to disturb that gentleman, and only took a look from a distance.

For a moment, both mother and daughter were full of contemplation and remained silent.

The midsummer wind brought the cicadas singing in the distance, but there was a kind of extraordinarily quiet in Lu's mansion. It seemed that all the hustle and bustle had been resolved by the solemnity of the mansion.

*********************
Compared with Lu Mansion's killing, Qin Su's days in Baiyun Temple became more and more relaxed. He just copied scriptures, practiced calligraphy, and enjoyed flowers and bamboos every day, but he was at ease.

This day when I woke up at dawn, I was thinking of the newly planted jasmine plants in the chrysanthemum garden in the corner of the courtyard. Now that they are in full bloom, the white flowers and green leaves are very beautiful. Qin Su also had a rare elegance, called Ah Kui prepared a set of drawing utensils, and sat in front of the small case, smearing and drawing on the paper, drawing in a sort of ladylike style.

She was drawing contentedly here, when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her, Li Yuwei's breathless voice rang out: "Girl, Mr. Erlang sent a boy named A Cheng to visit the girl. "

"A Cheng?" Qin Su turned her head, her eyebrows raised high under her bangs, and she was really surprised: "A Cheng is here? Why did he come? What happened?" As she asked, she was already confused. He got up from his seat and grabbed the drawing in his hand.

Since the two paintings were stolen by Ah Kui, every time she paints now, she always burns after painting without leaving any traces.

Li Yu wiped the sweat from her forehead, and while helping Qin Su straighten her dress, she respectfully said, "I don't know why he came here, but he looks smiling, it doesn't look like there is any serious matter." .”

Qin Su was slightly relieved.

It was her wish to leave the Qin Mansion, but she was really worried that no one was watching Qin Yanzhao.

At this time, Li Yu had already asked someone to arrange the bright room of the main room, with five large bamboo screens in the middle, dividing the room into two sections. , patterned into thin edges, embroidered with dark bamboo branches and leaves, elegant and solemn.

Qin Su went back to the house first, first burned the drawing to ashes, and then went to the Ming room, sat on the armchair behind the screen, and said to Li Yu with a smile: "Call Ah Cheng to come in."

Li Ru responded, and went to the second gate to deliver the message in person. Not long after, A Cheng's small figure appeared behind the screen.

He seemed to have grown taller, and his shadow was also long and thin. After entering the room, he bowed respectfully in Qin Su's direction.

Qin Su raised her hand and said "That's all", then smiled again and said, "Sit down first."

There was a short couch set up in front of the screen, so Ah Cheng sat down upright, and Qin Sufang asked in a harmonious voice, "Why did you come here suddenly? Did Second Brother have something to tell me?"

A Cheng bowed on the couch and said: "Back to Miss Six, it was the lords and ladies who asked me to come and see the girl, and told me to bring something for the girl, because I remembered it halfway, so So he sent me to turn around halfway, and hurry up to send the girl over."

As he was speaking, he turned around and gave some instructions, and soon two clean-looking maidservants came in carrying a big burden.

Qin Su then raised his hand to Li Yu, and Li Yu stepped forward to take the things over, and A Cheng said again: "Your Majesty said, Liu Niangzi must be very bored when she is out alone, so I prepared something for Liu Niangzi." Two sets of books and a set of pens and inks; the newly made cloth towels were given by the eldest lady; the tubes of paint used for painting were given by the second lady; A newly embroidered warm bag cover; the fifth lady gave two bottles of dried petals; the seventh lady gave her favorite little windmill and Jiulianhuan; the rest of the gentlemen all gave new paper, a total of three boxes; All the lords and ladies in the mansion also collected some money, totaling 50 taels, and asked me to bring it along with them. In addition, the second lady wrote a letter herself, and asked me to bring it to the sixth lady as well."

He reported clearly all the things sent by everyone one by one, and when he finished speaking, he smiled at Li Yu again and said, "Please check it out face to face, so that I can do business." Then he took out the letter as well. , put it on the small case aside.

Li Yu clapped her palms and laughed, exaggeratingly said: "You are really someone who needs to be around Mr. Erlang. This little mouth is really powerful. It's hard for you to remember such things clearly."

"No, I just have a better memory." Ah Cheng smiled shyly, touched his head with a childish expression.

Li Yu praised him a few more words, then opened up the burden in front of A Cheng, counting the same points one by one.
