Invincible son

Chapter 284 Chapter 283

Xingyang City, the backyard of the imperial envoy's office.

Lin Shuyue was sitting by the window, with her left hand propping her fair and clean chin, and her right hand holding a piece of snow wave paper with a poem written on it.

"The fragrance of the red lotus root and the remnant jade mat in autumn. Lightly untie the clothes, and go to the orchid boat alone. Whoever sends brocade books in the cloud, when the geese return, the moon will be full on the west building."

She recited the words softly, with a slight melancholy on her face.

"Flowers drift by themselves and water flows by itself. A kind of lovesickness—"

"Miss! Miss!"

The servant girl Nongyu's voice came from outside the house, and then she ran into the house out of breath, her face covered with tiny beads of sweat.When Lin Shuyue escaped from West Wu, she didn't have any close or familiar friends around her. This maid was chosen by her after she entered the Qiujiang Tower.It doesn't matter whether her background is clean or not, at least for Lin Shuyue, she doesn't care about this issue, anyway, she is a rootless apple.She just likes Nongyu's charming personality, which can be regarded as a bright spot in the years of turmoil.

Usually Lin Shuyue was very tolerant to her and was used to her service, so she asked Pei Yue for instructions and brought her into the imperial envoy's office.

It's just that at this moment she was immersed in the artistic conception of this poem, and couldn't help thinking of Pei Yue who had been away for a few days, and was suddenly disturbed by Nongyu, even though she was kind and gentle, she was a little dissatisfied, and she frowned slightly: "What are you panicking about? "

Seeing this, Nongyu knew that the young lady was a little angry, so she quickly stood where she was, trying her best to stop her panting caused by trotting all the way.

Lin Shuyue smiled helplessly: "Stop pretending, just talk about it."

Nongyu smiled innocently, widened his eyes and said: "Miss, the servant girl has found out the whereabouts of the lord!"

Lin Shuyue revealed a look of surprise, and said hurriedly: "Say it quickly."

Nongyu was very clever and articulate, and he could explain the whole story clearly in a few words: "Young Lord's personal soldiers came to look for Mr. Qin and then left. Mr. Qin said that His Excellency is going to the west border and will not return to the city for a while. "

Lin Shuyue looked slightly sad.

Her thoughts about Pei Yue are extremely complicated, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see the truth.

As a weak woman far away from her homeland and struggling to survive in a foreign country, she used to think that relying on Chen Xizhi to live in peace and stability, she only dared to hide the thought of revenge deep in her heart.After meeting Pei Yue, feeling his sincerity and calmness, and gradually understanding Chen Xizhi's real situation, she had no choice but to choose to hide under Pei Yue's wings.

Because she has no choice.

Don't be fooled by the charming scene in Liaoding's small courtyard that night, Lin Shuyue firmly believes that as long as she says "no", Pei Yue will never feel sorry for her.Under the uninhibited, laughing and cursing of the young dignitary hides a ruthless determination, and she firmly believes that her feelings are not wrong.

Fear and hope, as well as sudden intimacy and hasty parting, all kinds of emotions were brewing in Lin Shuyue's heart, and she suddenly found herself in a hazy vortex.Although the past years were cold and cold, she understood what she was going through and what she would face, but now she has more anxiety about gains and losses.

And there is still a touch of nostalgia for Pei Yue.

Everyone in this huge imperial envoy respected her very much, and it was from the heart. Lin Shuyue understood why this respect came from.In the three years since leaving Xiwu, she has never received such respect, even if she has become the oiran of Qiujianglou and the head of the nine great masters.

Perhaps this is the reason for the nostalgia in her heart.

"Miss? Miss?" Nongyu looked at Lin Shuyue in a daze.

"what happened again?"

"That Mr. Qin is so disgusting. He wanted to ask the young lady to comment on the poems, but the young lady has already refused several times. If the maidservant hadn't pretended to be stupid, he would have to bother the young lady."

Nongyu pouted angrily, obviously in her perception, her lady is already the Lord's person, even if you are an imperial envoy, you can't be so offensive.

Lin Shuyue shook her head slightly and said, "Don't worry about it."

Nong Yu approached and said: "Miss, why don't you tell the Lord's personal soldiers about this?"

Lin Shuyue suddenly raised her head, her eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Nongyu didn't dare to continue, and said timidly, "Miss..."

Lin Shuyue stretched out her hand to hold her wrist, and said softly: "My lord is busy with business outside, how can I distract him at this time? Mr. Qin does not mean any disrespect, he just has been a leisurely official for a long time, so I don't care. I understand taboos too well. No matter how bad it is, there are two of the Lord’s personal soldiers here, and they are all people who respect the Lord. Master Qin will not be ignorant of this. You don’t have to worry, let alone make decisions without authorization, otherwise I will definitely I dare not keep you."

Nongyu shook her head in a panic and said, "Miss, please don't drive the maidservant away, the maidservant dare not talk nonsense."

Lin Shuyue looked more and more gentle, and said with a smile: "Nongyu, it is not easy for you and me to meet each other. As long as you stay well, I will not let you go. It is windy and rainy outside. From now on, don't leave Be around me, let alone contact with people outside, I am afraid that you will suffer, and I am afraid that our sisterhood will be damaged, understand?"

If the previous words are still vague, then Lin Shuyue's latter words are almost explicit.

Nongyu stood in a daze, not knowing how to answer for a while.

Lin Shuyue sighed lightly, and said sadly: "People like you and me can't help themselves in this world, so I don't blame you. The reason why I chose you at the beginning was because I like your temperament. Even if If I don’t choose you, others will not be able to escape such a fate. How could those people give up the opportunity to put my eyes and ears by my side? Nongyu, from now on, let’s not bother with those things, okay? No matter how stormy it is outside, my lord Always help us cover."

Seeing her sincere gaze, Nongyu slowly shed tears and sobbed: "Miss, I never thought of harming you. They threatened me with their parents. If I refuse to pass on the news about you and your lord, They are going to kill their parents, I woo woo woo..."

Lin Shuyue's eyes were flushed, she pulled her closer, took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I will give you some news these days, you just send it to them as usual, wait When the lord comes back, he will definitely rescue your parents."

Nongyu sobbed and responded, and asked again: "Miss, will the Sir be back soon?"

Lin Shuyue did not answer this question. In fact, Pei Yue only left for five days, but it seemed to her that it had been a long, long time.

She has read those two words countless times.

After a moment of silence, she forced a smile and said, "If you want the Sir to come back sooner, then pray for him every day."

Nongyu nodded, half understanding.

Lin Shuyue patted the back of her hand and said, "Go and wash your face, you're crying like a cat."

Nongyu smiled embarrassedly, then turned and left.

Lin Shuyue withdrew her gaze, staring at the bold words on the paper on the table, her thoughts gradually drifted away.

That night Pei Yue told her that she could be given several choices, either to enter Pei's mansion as a concubine, or to be raised by him outside, or to do something she liked.

It's just that Lin Shuyue feels that it is the best choice if she can help him with something.

Even if it will pay some price.

But she felt no pity.
