Chapter 64 Life and death come and go, all involuntarily
After leaving the riot, Xu You's face was gloomy and without saying a word, he took Zuo Qi and Qingming back to Mingyu Mountain. Qingming seemed to be out of sight, but he just followed behind him and was calm and composed. Zuo Qi wanted to ask about the situation, but after looking at Xu You, then looking at Qingming, he wisely kept silent. As soon as he entered the yard, Xu You didn't look back and said, "Qingming, go find Qiyi and say there is something important to discuss!"
"promise!"
He Ru came quickly and slowly. He and the maid named Ananda were watching flowers on the northern foot of Mingyu Mountain. Half an hour had passed when he found him in Qingming.
Close the door, and there were only Xu You and He Ru in the room. He Ru asked with a smile: "Why? I'm looking for me in such a hurry. Is that Yangzhou sacrificial sacrificial tribute difficult to deal with?"
Xu You stroked the jade-carved teacup with both hands and sighed: "It's not just difficult to deal with, it's extremely tricky!"
He Ru suddenly became a little interested and said, "If Qilang feels it is difficult, I guess he has a great background. What is this person's identity?"
"I'm an old friend who hasn't seen for many years. Who would you guess she be?"
"Can it be that Yuan Qingqi climbed out of the grave?"
Xu You was drinking tea and sprayed out a sip of water. He Ru was shocked and said, "It's really Yuan Qingqi?"
Xu You nodded and said, "She pretended to die and left Yuan's family, and served as the eighth high priest in Heming Mountain as the eighth high priest in Yangzhou!"
He Ru narrowed his eyes and lay on the cushion on his side. After a while, he said, "An Zidao wanted to make a move into the chessboard of Tianshidao. Sun Guan wanted to give up his hinterland to dispel An Zidao's suspicion. As for Yuan Jie, he was afraid that he could not control his daughter and offend the emperor, and he had no choice but to deal with Tianshi. Haha, Yuan Qingqi, Yuan Qingqi... He could do such strange and unpredictable things with a woman. How could he be an easy-to-control person? The beautiful things they thought might not be fulfilled!"
There is no need for Xu You to explain, or even listen to his conversation with Yuan Qingqi. He Ru immediately guessed the thoughts that implicated everyone in all parties. Xu You smiled bitterly and said, "Those are too far away. The imminent problem is how should I contact Yuan Qingqi as Lin Tong... She may remember my voice..."
The original plan was to sneak into Tianshidao and slowly approach the new priest, and then find a way to go to Heming Mountain. However, Yuan Qingqi's sudden appearance completely disrupted Xu You's plan. His figure, pace, demeanor and temperament were easy to hide, but his voice was most likely to reveal flaws. Xu You and Yuan Qingqi had only seen each other twice, and they had not been together for a long time and did not say much, but they were not afraid of ten thousand, but they were afraid that if they were, if Yuan Qingqi remembered Xu You's voice, Lin Tong's identity could not be hidden at all.
"This is a trouble..."
He Ru closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them again, he smiled a little, and said, "Qilang is confused! Yi Yigu is like this, so naturally I will ask Qingming for an understanding. Qinggui Rule is all-encompassing. In my opinion, it is not a problem to change a person's voice!"
"That's right... I'm really a little uneasy." Xu You stood up, walked to the door with his hands behind his back, pushed open the door, looked at Qingshan Rubi in the distance, and said, "Yuan Qingqi suddenly appeared, adding a lot of variables to this matter. Qi Yi, do you think it will become better or worse?"
He Ru followed him and said lazily: "I don't think it will become worse at least. Yuan Qingqi is in the open, we are in the dark, we have a little more chance of winning. Even if we really reveal our identity in the end, Qilang and her had a engagement after all, which is close to ordinary friends. If we don't look at monks and Buddha's faces, there will be a chance to make up for it."
Xu You pondered for a long time and said, "Okay, first respond to all changes with the same change, take one step at a time. Go and tell the Winter Solstice and invite Shufrost!"
Lu Shuang left the Quanjing, washed it briefly, changed her dress, her face no longer pale as before, and she knelt on the ground in the middle of the house without looking up.
"I've met Sanniang..."
Lu Shuang's body trembled slightly and she whispered: "Xiaolang, Sanniang has been reborn for me, I really can't do anything about it..."
"Okay, you don't need to explain. I understand and understand your difficulties." Xu You said in a gentle voice: "Sanniang promised me to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing in the rest of your life. You can clean up later and go down the mountain to find her in the riot. She is now a priest in Yangzhou, with a high position and a powerful position. She will arrange a good place for you."
"Xiao Lang!"
Lu Shuang raised her head, Yu Rong was sad, and she burst into tears, begging hard: "I know that my sins are unforgivable, but I ask Xiao Lang to tolerate me again. Even if I am a slave to wash clothes and lamps in Mingyu Mountain, I will be willing to do so!"
Xu You shook his head and said, "Lu Shuang, don't be like this. I know you pity you, how can you do it like that? So let's leave each other with some face. After leaving Mingyu Mountain, we are still friends. When you find a place to settle down, I will send me a letter. I have not had anything else in the past few years, but my money has been accumulated. I will ask the Winter Solstice to send someone to give you three million yuan, which is the dowry in the future..."
He smiled and said, "Do you remember? We once talked about it. If you find a good husband, I will give you a big bride gift to let you get married in a grand manner. Now it seems that you can't wait for the day you get married, so you can prepay the bride gift in advance!" After saying that, he did not look at Lu Shuang again, handed over the rest to the Winter Solstice, and turned around and left.
Lu Shuang packed up the package, but in fact she was just two or three pieces of plain clothes for changing clothes. When she walked to the door, she looked back at everything in the room. There was Xu You's breath, her footprints, and the nights they spent together. Although she was separated by the curtain, she seemed to be able to hear Xu You's breathing in the inner room, which was calm and quiet, making people feel at ease and fearless.
As the Lord of the Yellow Emperor, he did not deceive the dark room. He advanced and retreated in accordance with etiquette and occasionally made fun of him. He never involved lustful evil and behaved in moderation. He was even more gentlemanly than the most upright Confucian scholar in the world.
Lu Shuang is often fortunate that she can meet someone like Xu You in this life, but in the end, she is messed up by a moment of panic and deception!
When she first saw Yuan Qingqi, she was completely shocked by the scene of the dead resurrection. Her mind was in a daze and didn't know what to do. So she followed Yuan Qingqi's instructions and met him three times. All she talked about was Xu You's experience in the past few years. How to gain a foothold in Qiantang, how to sensation the world, how to be captured and how to escape, how to create a thunder cannon to quell the White Thieves' Rebellion, some of these things, Lu Shuang knew the details, and some of them were not very clear, such as An Yao's mask, etc., but Yuan Qingqi asked, and she could only answer truthfully.
Lu Shuang can reject anyone, but she cannot refuse Yuan Qingqi!
Moreover, when she thought that Yuan Qingqi and Xu You were friends but not enemies, perhaps there was still a relationship between men and women. Yuan Qingqi asked about Xu You’s situation and clearly wanted to know more about him. Therefore, the description of Xu You was versatile, brave, and polite, and humble and polite, which was simply the most ideal husband candidate in the minds of girls.
But now she thought that she was wrong too much. Xu You is Xu You, and Yuan Qingqi is Yuan Qingqi. She has different identities, status and positions. She shouldn't have been to the Lord to privately meet the priests of the Yangzhou Master, and she shouldn't have told outsiders about her own Lord's affairs.
Although, the things she revealed are not the core secrets!
But no matter what, it was too late, and Xu You discovered that she and Yuan Qingqi had been secretly interacting with each other. The trust she had finally established was destroyed, so she could only leave sadly.
"Sister, do you hate me?"
Winter solstice bit her lip and looked at Lu Shuang with her eyes slightly red. Lu Shuang reached out to bring her into her arms, stroked her back gently, and said softly: "Silly girl, I did something wrong. You are loyal to you. I am only happy for you. How can I hate you? After I leave, Xiao Lang has no caring maid to serve you. You should be more worried in the future. Don't just care about intelligence and information, but neglect Xiao Lang's food and clothing. Do you understand?"
The Winter Solstice nodded vigorously with tears in his eyes, and choked and said, "Sister, I can't bear to leave you. The autumnal equinox has gone, and you have gone too. From now on, I am the only one left here..."
"Be good, when I find a place to settle down, I will write to you. When I have free time, I can report to Xiaolang to come to me. This will never change in our sisters in this life!"
Lu Shuang finally left Qiantang with Yuan Qingqi, just as she was given to Xu You by Yuan Qingqi back then. In this chaotic world, a girl without foundation and background was always just a chess piece in the hands of others. She could not help but live or die, come and go, like duckweed, floating around the world, until her beauty had a dry bone, she could only end her life.
This is helpless!
Ma Yiming personally sent Yuan Qingqi away from Qiantang territory. After turning back to the Taoist temple, Xu You recorded a new Taoist destiny and asked while taking the resting stall: "The Master is full of red light, but is he going to be promoted?"
Ma Yiming stroked his beard, looked at no one around, and whispered: "I answered the wine for the wine. When this inspection is completed, I will tell Yangzhou when I return to Heming Mountain and promote me to fifty generals!"
"Great joy, congratulations to the Master!"
Ma Yiming nodded with a smile and said, "You do your best and follow your teacher and you will never treat you indifferently!"
At this moment, Kuquan came in and reported that Mao Qi brought dozens of slaves to the Taoist temple. Ma Yiming was busy greeting Yuan Qingqi these two days, but he forgot about this. He thought it was a rioter who was asking for punishment. Just as he was about to turn around and hide, Xu You grabbed him and said, "Stop the Master, I have cured the Mao Envoy, according to the prescription left by the Master, and this time I should be here to thank him."
"Huh?" Ma Yiming was puzzled. When did he keep the prescription? I was still waiting to be asked. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Mao Qi walking in front of me, and his complexion improved greatly. The servants followed behind were carrying boxes of big and small sizes, including brocade, silk, cloth, and grain. It was estimated that there were more than twenty boxes, which were worth at least tens of thousands of dollars.
This was a huge amount of income. Ma Yiming didn't care about asking Xu You. He shook his clothes and tidy up, and his temperament changed. He had a fairy-like and beautiful eyebrows, and his clear and elegant cape were hidden in the middle. He was so good that he was fooling those fools kowtowed and bowed.
Mao Qi actually came to the Taoist path. He praised Ma Yiming's Taoist technique to be wise and the talisman was eliminated. He also praised Xu You with great harsh praise. At this time, there were many people in the Taoist temple. Seeing that even famous gentry like Mao Qi had entered the Heavenly Master Tao, they rushed to pay five dou of rice in order to enter the Taoist sect, as if in this way, they could be on an equal footing with those high-ranking gentry.
Even if it's just a psychological equality!
