Riling Up The Jianghu

Chapter 45

Views:

It was hot in the afternoon, but the garden of the General's Mansion was cool.

Du Zheng was so busy that he brought tea and fruits, brushes, ink, paper and inkstones, and filled the pavilion to the brim. Looking again, I saw the young master wandering in the garden, looking like he was destroying things.

And that Huoshui named Rong was at the side, he didn't shout at this time, he looked a little cute.

This is the largest garden in the mansion. There are more than ten kinds of plants and trees, and the flowers are even more colorful. After eating, Huo Linfeng and Rong Luoyun had the right to digest their food, and by the way, looked for a piece of material to make a lantern.

The cypress tree is too thick, the peach tree Yuji is not suitable for cutting, and the crabapple and red mulberry are beautiful, and some are difficult to cut. Turning around, I found several newly planted cherry trees in the corner, and simply killed one that was pleasing to the eye.

Huo Linfeng lowered his head to cut trees and broken branches. There was no movement around him, and he couldn't help but pause when he looked back. Among the lush greenery and mottled spots, Rong Luoyun was picking flowers seriously.

I picked a crabapple in the east and a hosta in the west, and I already had a handful in my hand. He covetously looked at it for a long time, but only after the butterflies passed by did he come back to his senses, and asked, "Why are you picking so many?"

Rong Luoyun said: "My sister likes it, I will send it to her tomorrow."

To see Shen Zhou tomorrow, Huo Linfeng thought about it, Shen Zhou seemed to love Murong Duanyu, and Chaomulou was full of his own people, so he said: "Then I will have a banquet with a friend at Chaomulou tomorrow, and you will come with me then. "

Rong Luoyun only cared about picking flowers and didn't ask any friends. Picking up a large handful, he returned to the pavilion, and met Du Zheng who was guarding there. The two stared at each other, and turned half a circle towards each other as if they were hearing each other.

Du Zheng was defeated: "Palace Master, eat melons."

Rong Luoyun sat down and asked, "You have always been his servant?"

Du Zheng replied, "It was his elder brother who lied to you."

Rong Luoyun forgot about this, and asked again: "Then he almost got married or something, is it all made up?"

Du Zheng's heart was full of sorrows, people are really suffering at the moment. "Half-true, half-false." He replied falteringly, "Baoyue is not serving Master Ranger, but serving our wife. Madam wants the young master to take Baoyue into the house..."

Before he finished speaking, Huo Linfeng walked over with the wood in his arms, and sat down in the pavilion. There was no sound for a moment, he drank a cup of herbal tea to look at the two people, and asked: "What are you talking about, don't worry about me."

Rong Luoyun handed a piece of melon: "Talk, hug the moon."

Huo Linfeng choked, picked up apricots and threw them at Du Zheng, the dog thing is doing bad things again! Du Zheng ran away with his head in his arms, so can he be blamed for gossiping? It's just that the good friend always asks random questions!

When the garden was quiet, Huo Linfeng cut the wood and said, "Just ask me in the future, and I will never hide anything."

These words were enough, Rong Luoyun held his mouth full of fresh peaches, and then spread paper and ink to write Ling Yunzhang's heart formula. He is currently practicing on the third floor, and it will become more and more difficult as he goes on.

Neither of them spoke, the lamp maker bowed his head and worked hard, and the writer lowered his eyes and meditated silently, sharing the breeze in the garden. After half a stick of incense passed by, Rong Luoyun was stunned when he took it away after finishing writing the first layer of heart formula.

There is a portrait sandwiched under that layer of white paper, black and black, with protruding eyes, and the body is even more indescribable. He looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help asking: "Is this for evil spirits?"

Huo Linfeng looked up: "..."

To ward off your mother's evil, he was full of love when he painted, how could he be spoiled like this, he pulled the lamp bone and said: "This is—you."

Rong Luoyun was stunned, his internal organs were in a mess with horror, and he looked down at the painting again...it was him. There is a ghost in the lover's eyes, he caressed his face and said, "I am like this in your eyes."

Huo Linfeng thought it was beautiful: "Yes, they are exactly the same."

Rong Luoyun was speechless, guess what the other party likes is his humanity? That's all, he has the right to think that Saibei people have different aesthetics, so he picks up a pen and continues to write silently.

Huo Linfeng peeked out of the corner of his eye, seeing that the other party was not very happy, and asked, "You don't like it?"

"No, hehe." Rong Luoyun smiled dryly.

Huo Linfeng said: "Anyway, I drew you, have you drawn me?"

The corner of Rong Luoyun's mouth twitched, he could draw better with his feet than this thing. He was not aggressive, but he took the bait, dipped his pen in ink, and sketched an outline in two or three strokes.

When he drew Huo Linfeng, he concentrated on it, but he didn't even look at him.

The person's figure, appearance, and spirit have already been engraved in his heart before he knew it. From head to foot, from crown to boots, he painted this portrait in one go.

Finally, rinse the tea with a layer of light gray smoke, and it's done.

In the indistinct world, Huo Linfeng swayed his ponytail lightly. Looking at it with his sword up, Han Yan softened the sharp brows a bit. The painting is about the day of the martial arts competition, drums were played to cheer, and they faced each other from a distance after the crowd dispersed.

"It's finished." He nodded his chin.

Huo Linfeng came to the table, his eyes fell on the paper, and he lost all words. This was not enough, Rong Luoyun picked up the pen again, and wrote a few words in the blank corner:

—Gift my love Linfeng.

At that moment, Huo Linfeng's chest swelled uncontrollably, and he raised his hand to embrace Rong Luoyun. My love, Linfeng, he kept mumbling in his mouth, too happy to say other sour words. Rong Luoyun leaned on his shoulder and wrapped his arms around his waist, also very happy.

"I framed it and hung it in the study." Huo Linfeng said.

Rong Luoyun responded: "The one you drew... I won't hang it up."

Huo Linfeng chuckled, feeling very ashamed, and took away the masterpiece of evil spirits.

This episode ended, and the two performed their respective duties, spending the whole afternoon in the gazebo. At dusk, Rong Luoyun presented Ling Yun with the heart formula three layers in front of Ling Yun's palm, and Huo Linfeng sent a cherry tree lantern and a swallow kite.

They went back to the main garden side by side, and met a group of servant girls.

This group of people are all serving in the main garden, and today they are not called guards, so they have been idle for a whole day. At this moment, I want to go back to the servant's room, but who would have bumped into my master.

Anyone who is not blind can't help but look at them secretly.

After all, it was the first time a visitor in the mansion stayed overnight. He didn't live in a wing room in the other garden, but slept in the general's house.

Rong Luoyun felt his eyes scorching, lowered his head to fiddle with a handful of flowers, and moved behind Huo Linfeng. Huo Linfeng said: "What are you doing blocking the corridor? Do you think the road is wide?"

Everyone dispersed immediately, and they all hid in the room in the blink of an eye.

After it was quiet, they also returned to the house, and Huo Linfeng went into the small room to take a bath. Rong Luoyun sat on the couch arranging flowers, a little bored, but also a little curious, what were those servants thinking when they looked at him

Putting himself in his shoes, if he carried Huo Linfeng back to the Uncommon Palace and let him sleep in Wumingju, let alone all the disciples, the third and fourth would probably be able to chew their tongues.

Based on this speculation, are those servants also chewing their tongues

Rong Luoyun gradually scratched his heart and liver, leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes to get luck, and used six ways of Sanskrit. Soon, he caught the movement of the servant's room, and the chatter was very lively.

"Who is that man!", "He's really handsome, but his face looks familiar.", "He's not lame, why did he ask the general to carry him into the mansion?", "He's still wearing the general's clothes!"

Suddenly falling into silence, Rong Luoyun picked at the embroidered beads on the pillow, and said quickly.

After a while, one person boldly asked: "The general is not a broken sleeve..."

"The general's family should have been married a long time ago, and they don't even have a housekeeper girl.", "You mean, that person is the general's little favorite?", "Then they share the same room, do... "," That's the thing!"

Falling into silence again, Rong Luoyun scratched his right hand with his left hand, what else was he talking about.

One person boldly asked again: "How did the two men do that thing?"

Rong Luoyun held his breath and concentrated, clenched his hands unconsciously, let him listen, let him listen. Unexpectedly, Huo Linfeng came out with his clothes open, and he was so frightened that he lost all his energy.

He almost lost his breath, the broken sleeve was washed so quickly.

"What are you doing there, go to bed." Huo Linfeng walked to the side of the bed and stretched out his hand, his strong body looming, "Why is your face so red?"

There was a buzzing in his ears, but Rong Luoyun couldn't hear it, so he obediently put his hands together. He thought that Huo Linfeng was just holding him, but the other party hugged him, and he murmured softly, "I'm so spoiled."

Huo Linfeng didn't hear clearly, so he went to the bed and put down Rong Luoyun, and lifted his pajamas to check the wound. The cotton gauze was drenched with hot blood, he hurriedly took the medicine: "You don't feel any pain, why don't you utter a sound?"

When luck is tense, the wound has just opened. Rong Luoyun was lying flat, clutching the opened corner of his clothes on his chest, waiting for the medicine to be applied, still drying his belly hysterically.

Huo Linfeng blows the lamp and settles the tent, gets on the bed and lies down.

After a while, Rong Luoyun recovered his hearing, but his mood was still not calm.

That kind of thing... how to do it

He thought silently, and at some point he met Duke Zhou.

After breathing evenly, Huo Linfeng turned over and gently pulled Rong Luoyun into his arms. That time the carriage was separated by Diao Yuliang, that time the Zen Court stopped him after he was asleep, that time the Zhulou was unconscious, and that time Wumingju was interrupted by Lu Zhun.

In this way, this was actually the first time they officially slept together in the same bed.

It's a pity that I was injured.

He sighed with a smile, closing his eyes to suppress the undercurrent.

After a night passed, Huo Linfeng woke up first, went to the barracks for a walk, and stood in the corridor after returning, listening to the people below report on the city's miscellaneous affairs. "Choose a good team from the guards and check the three generations of ancestors." At the end, he ordered, "If there is nothing wrong, start training soon."

After finishing his work, he walked to the window of the bedroom and peeped in as if looking at the scenery.

Rong Luoyun had just put on his clothes when he turned his face to look at the people outside the window. He patted his lower abdomen: "Your medicine is not bad, it's scabbed." Walking out of the house, he walked in front of the other party, "Go directly to Chaomulou?"

Huo Linfeng said "Yes", and sent a car to pick up Shen Zhou. They went out on foot, strolled to the edge of the long river, and solicited a painting boat.

At this time, the water is shining brightly, which is very suitable for boating and small talk.

Not long after, a carriage drove up to the river, and the groom was a familiar face in the General's Mansion. Rong Luoyun was eating fruit, he looked around and saw the person who lifted the curtain and got out of the car.

... sinking a boat

The friend Huo Linfeng mentioned was actually Shen Zhou!

After a while, Shen Zhou had already boarded the boat, and he was also a little surprised when he saw him. Huo Linfeng introduced: "Brother Shen, this is Rong Luoyun, he helped with the Hanzhou matter."

Shen Zhou muttered: "Rong Luoyun..." He forgot to thank him, recalling the last time he met upstairs, "Mr. Rong, I'm sorry to ask, who are you and Miss Duanyu?"

Rong Luoyun came back to his senses: "... brothers and sisters."

For a moment, he felt that Shen Zhou's eyes became serious, which made him nervous. "Master Shen, sit down." He poured his tea with his head down, and hastily said something else, "The matter of Jia Yan's resignation must be over."

Shen Zhou restrained his eyes: "He committed suicide before arriving in Chang'an. His family is huge, and he dare not involve his good uncle who is the prime minister." He whispered, with a trace of unwillingness, "Chen Ruoyin's tree has deep roots, and the account books are an ironclad proof." , but it’s just a mayfly shaking a tree.”

Huo Linfeng hit the point straight: "Brother Shen, do you know who are the ones who are begging for mercy?" Seeing that the other party was drinking tea to hide his hesitation, he smiled, "Don't worry, Luoyun is not an outsider."

Not only was Rong Luoyun not an outsider, nor was he a fool, he kicked Huo Linfeng under the table.

At this time, Shen Zhou made a detailed count, except for those with low official positions, and explained Chen Ruoyin's henchmen one by one. "Probably these." He paused slightly, "The other thing is, being the crown prince."

As the boat gradually reached the middle of the river, Huo Linfeng and Shen Zhou had a lot of conversations, not only about business affairs, but also about their feelings after they came to Jiangnan. Rong Luoyun listened quietly, looking at Shen Zhou in a daze.

Huo Linfeng caught this ecstasy and kicked back under the table.

"By the way, there is one more thing." Shen Zhou said, "My father mentioned in the letter that the emperor's holy body has not been in good condition in recent months, and he wants to build the Longevity Palace to pray for blessings."

Huo Linfeng was able to understand the big construction projects immediately: "Add a gift?"

Shen Zhou nodded in acquiescence, then shook his head and smiled wryly. Tired of talking, he got up and walked out of the cabin, and went to the deck to enjoy some fresh air. His eyes glanced over the sparkling water and cast his eyes on the hexagonal building by the river.

In the boat room, Rong Luoyun asked, "General Huo, are you investigating me?"

Huo Linfeng smiled lowly. It is known that the person related to the Uncommon Palace is not in the same party as Chen Ruoyin, so Chen Ruoyin's party members can be eliminated. He said: "If I don't want to check, I will ask, to find out that the prime minister has a defense."

Rong Luoyun moved closer: "Don't bother in the future, just ask me."

Huo Linfeng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then let me ask, why do you always stare at Shen Zhou?" Without kicking that foot lightly, he presumably stared from the center of the river to the river bank, "Since Xu is a general, don't look at civil servants."

Rong Luoyun slapped the table embarrassingly, and the Saibei people wronged the good man in Jiangnan again.

They were talking from one side, while the sinking boat was watching from the other side, and the painting boat stopped at the river bank little by little.

Hanzhou is busy with official duties, Shen Zhou doesn't want to stay for a long time, so he is going to say goodbye. He looked back at Chaomulou, embarrassed but sincerely said: "Mr. Rong, please send Shen's greetings to Miss Duanyu."

Rong Luoyun agreed, feeling a little unbearable in his heart. Before leaving, he sent the other party into the carriage, and when the curtain of the carriage fell, he stepped forward to block the way.

"Master Shen." He said, "Don't come again."

Shen Zhou looked at him blankly, and he continued: "The son of the Taifu and the son of Dingbeihou must not be too close, one visit is enough. You are far away from the emperor, but your father is still in the court."

Shen Zhou was sitting in the car, looking at Rong Luoyun outside the car in a daze, as if he had seen this scene before. On a sunny day, in a carriage, the child came to block the way, and asked him seriously—Brother Shen, when will you come to Fuchu to teach me how to draw again

That pair of brows and eyebrows enlarged a bit, and seemed to merge with the pair in front of him.

He was even more stunned, and deliberately murmured: "Young Master, don't worry, General Huo and I are just friends of gentlemen."

Rong Luoyun said affectionately: "Have you ever seen unwarranted charges?!" Hidden in the affection was grief and indignation, "By then...it will be too late."

Having said that, he took two steps back, turned and left.

"Wait!" Shen Zhou stopped him, "Excuse me, Mr. Duanyu and Miss Duanyu, do they have any other brothers?"

Rong Luoyun froze, and replied with hatred: "No more."

The author has something to say: Xiao Rong is the kind of person in the class, whoever brings something good is surrounded by everyone, and he sits by himself reading a book and doesn't care at all. In fact, I was so curious, what, let me see, let me see.

The last thing I saw was Xiao Huo's newly bought luminous watch.
