Linglong

Chapter 71

Linglong is very good at docking, and she stops right where she left off, that delightful strawberry field.

The boat is small and can be rowed very close to the shore. She jumped on the shore.

"Wang Xiaosan, goodbye!" She happily waved to the sea.

Hungry, she squatted down and picked a few strawberries, and put them in her mouth before washing them, "It's delicious, no pesticides, all natural." After eating more than a dozen in a row, she patted her belly in satisfaction and stood up.

Xu Chuanjie walked over, his face a little embarrassed.

For the rest of her life after the catastrophe, Linglong wanted to ask Xu Chuanjie countless things in her heart.However, he swallowed all the words and smiled slightly, "Sister Xu, I'm back."

"What did my cousin ask you to do?" Xu Chuanjie took a few steps quickly and held Linglong's little hand, and asked apologetically, "Little sister, although he is my cousin, he is even more honorable His Royal Highness King Zhou. He has orders. Not only me, even my father and mother dare not disobey."

Xu Chuanjie's expression was sincere, Linglong just thought about it for a while, and quickly forgave her.

She is going to marry Song Changqing soon, so she won't intentionally offend Linglong, a girl who is similar to her sister-in-law, and wantonly belittle her.If it wasn't for King Zhou's strict order, she would not have left Linglong alone.

In this era, the imperial power was the greatest, and even if Xu Chuanjie wanted to fight against a prince, he couldn't.She doesn't have this strength at all.

"I know." Linglong nodded obediently, without any intention of complaining.

Xu Chuanjie's eyes were red, and he said in a low voice: "I was also hesitant. I don't know what will happen if my cousin passes you this little girl over. But the person who came to pass the order was a swordsman next to him, with a very bad temper. Hard, I didn't think about procrastination at all... My cousin is very arbitrary, and the people around him are also bad-tempered..."

"I know." Linglong patted her comfortingly.

Bah, Wang Xiaosan is that kind of virtue, Zhou Wang and him cooperate so happily, they must be the same breed!
Xu Chuanjie clenched Linglong's hand.

"He... What did he ask you to do?" Xu Chuanjie asked cautiously.

Linglong is just a cute little girl, what could be the reason why her cousin called her over?Xu Chuanjie couldn't figure it out even after thinking about it.

"Sister Xu, let me tell you quietly, you must not tell others." Linglong looked around and whispered, "His Royal Highness Zhou Wang wants to investigate the remnants of King Chen's party, because my father and my uncle were kidnapped by mountain bandits. So call me over and ask questions."

When Linglong said that, she just wanted to calm things down, and she was afraid that Xu Chuanjie's thoughts would end up being wrong in the end.

Unexpectedly, Xu Chuanjie was even more puzzled, "Little sister, then he should ask your father and your uncle what a little girl does?"

"Because Wang Xiaosan is a pervert!" Linglong blurted out.

Xu Chuanjie was confused, "Little sister, who is Wang Xiaosan?"

Linglong tilted her head and thought for a while, then giggled, "Wang Xiaosan is a little follower next to King Zhou, but it's broken. I met him when I was in King Zhou's mansion. He didn't like me and wanted to punish me on purpose." .”

"That's it." Xu Chuanjie understood.

She lowered her head and thought for a while, then said solemnly: "I don't care about my cousin's affairs, nor do my parents. But Wang Xiaosan next to him may not be able to think of a way. Little sister, I I promise you, I will try to deal with this Wang Xiaosan and avenge you."

"Okay." Linglong clapped her hands and smiled.

Dudu Xu is very capable, let him punish human traffickers!People who always want to abduct girls from good families should be severely punished, and they will never be merciless!
Separating parents and children is the most immoral thing in the world, and those who do such things must be severely punished—if they fail, they must be severely punished.

However, for an attempted crime, the sentencing should definitely be lighter.

"Sister Xu, don't punish him too hard." Linglong persuaded very kindly: "After all, he is the proud person in front of His Royal Highness Zhou. If he is too harsh and offends His Highness Zhou, it is not stubborn."

Xu Chuanjie looked a little hesitant.

Linglong was obedient, and hurriedly said: "If it's difficult, it's okay not to punish him. Sister Xu, I'm fine anyway, but I was asked a few words, and I didn't feel frightened at all."

Xu Chuanjie was not very embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "You must know that my mother and my aunt are not sisters of the same mother. Little sisters, sisters belong to sisters, the same mother or different mothers, it is very different. My eldest uncle and aunt have the same mother, Cousin respects my uncle and aunt very much, if what happened today was changed to my uncle and aunt’s Duke of Chu’s mansion..."

"It's impossible, isn't it?" Linglong asked sympathetically.

Xu Chuanjie nodded silently.

Linglong is a kind-hearted girl. Seeing Xu Chuanjie's sadness, she tried her best to comfort her: "Sister Xu, you must have known about His Majesty's assassination a while ago, right? His Majesty was assassinated, and His Royal Highness King Zhou knew that his own father was almost injured by the rebels." You can imagine how annoyed he must be. Sister Xu, if His Royal Highness Zhou Wang asked me to go because of other reasons, I think you can be angry or dissatisfied, but because you want to track down the whereabouts of the rebellious party, you don’t have to That's it. If your father is in danger, no one will be annoyed."

"It makes sense." Xu Chuanjie thought for a while, and his face gradually became brighter, "Your Majesty was assassinated, and my cousin was really furious. He quietly left the capital that day to hunt down the rebels and went to the north. Later, the eldest uncle went out in person to arrest the rebels." He took him back to the capital."

Thinking of that past, Xu Weijie couldn't help smiling.

He was the least troublesome of his aunt's three sons.After His Majesty was assassinated, he was furious, "Dare to assassinate my father!" He rushed out with his guards, and no one asked for instructions.It turned out to be a good thing, in order to find his crown prince, many masters were dispatched, but none of them were useful, so it was the eldest uncle who went there himself to bring him back.

"Oh, is that so? After being captured, was he beaten?" Linglong asked casually.

Xu Chuanjie pursed his lips and smiled, "How come? Your Majesty dotes on him the most, so why would he be willing to beat him?"

"Then let him guard Shuntian Mansion." Linglong was surprised.

The emperor doted on him, and even took him far away to Shuntian Mansion?This is the north. Compared with the south, there is a lot of sandstorms and insufficient supplies, and the level of enjoyment is far worse.

Xu Chuanjie took her little hand and walked back, and said with a smile: "Some people are born warlike, there is no other way. My grandfather, have you heard? He is a famous general who founded the country, a general who always wins, and his cousin is like my grandfather." When it comes to marching and fighting, his eyes shine."

"Does it look like it?" Linglong held her growling stomach and chatted with Xu Chuanjie.

"It's not like." Xu Chuanjie smiled and bent over, "My grandfather's appearance... well, I won't mention it, it's disrespectful to the old man. Cousin is very good-looking, you know it."

"I don't know." Linglong rubbed her belly sullenly.

"How come?" Xu Chuanjie was surprised.

"How am I qualified to look up to King Zhou?" Linglong couldn't bear it anymore, and looked at her reproachfully.

"I'm sorry, I forgot this." Xu Chuanjie felt apologetic.

As Linglong, even if she saw King Zhou, she didn't dare to raise her head, so she couldn't take a closer look.

Linglong rubbed her belly, "Sister Xu, where are my cousins ​​and cousins? I saw them later, how can I explain that I didn't even have lunch with them?"

Xu Chuanjie hurriedly said: "Say you accompany my mother to copy the scriptures in the small Buddhist hall, and accompany her to eat vegetarian food at noon."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go." Linglong frowned, "Sister Xu, quickly take me to the Small Buddha Hall, I'm vegetarian."

Only then did Xu Chuanjie realize that Linglong was hungry, and asked with a frown, "Didn't my cousin get someone to prepare meals for you? He's not such a mean person. By the way, he doesn't care about such trivial matters. He must be a servant." Lazy and slippery, it must be Wang Xiaosan playing tricks. Little sister, hurry up, I will take you to the little Buddhist hall."

"The more the better." Linglong explained worriedly, "Just serve the big plate and big bowl, I can eat it."

Xu Chuanjie was very distressed.

She raised her arms high and waved the red handkerchief, and after a while, a little girl ran over with a smile and asked, "What are your orders?" Xu Chuanjie said briefly: "Let the small kitchen prepare some delicious vegetarian dishes, and send them quickly." Don't delay when you arrive at the Small Buddha Hall." The little girl agreed and ran away.

When Linglong and Xu Chuanjie arrived at the Small Buddha Hall, there was already a steaming bowl of green rice with green rice, a plate of vegetarian ham and a plate of vegetarian chicken on the table, "The soup and hot dishes will be served later. "The maid said with a smile.

Linglong's eyes turned green when she saw the food, she hurriedly washed her hands and face, then sat down at the table honestly and began to eat.Vegetarian ham and vegetarian chicken are fat, glutinous and sweet, fresh and refreshing. Linglong nodded while eating, "It's delicious, um, it's delicious!"

Xu Chuanjie sat on the side and advised her, "Little sister, eat slowly, the soup and hot dishes will come soon, there are too many, and they are all yours."

Two little girls came in with food boxes and placed hot dishes such as fried eel paste and fried shrimp on the table.This fried eel paste is not really made of eel, but selected first-class mushrooms, cut into eel strips, mixed with water chestnut powder and deep-fried, it is fragrant and delicious, smooth and refreshing; fried shrimp is not real shrimp, The raw material is ground eggs, that is, potatoes. First, mix the potatoes with flour and fry them in an oil pan, then stir-fry them with mushrooms, diced carrots, green beans, etc. It looks like shrimp, and it is delicious in color.

"Fresh eyebrows!" Linglong gave a thumbs up.

The tofu soup and fresh mushroom soup came up again, Linglong feasted on them.

After her stomach was full, Linglong smiled with a good temper, "Sister, can someone call Tang Xiaoming? No, it's okay if you don't call her. She has a change of clothes, and I will change."

Xu Chuanjie obeyed her.

The replacement clothes were brought over, and Linglong changed into them, feeling completely new.

No one can see that she was very down and out today, she was once a hostage, and she used all her strength to escape.

Xu Chuanjie took her to see Mrs. Chang.

Mrs. Chang simply wore a round bun on her head, and was wearing a homely, half-worn blue dress, sitting under the window copying scriptures.

Seeing Linglong, she smiled gently, "King Zhou called you here specially, what's the matter? This child is always cold-faced, didn't he scare you?" Hearing Linglong said that she was just asking about the cottage, Mrs. Chang frowned , "Wouldn't it be better to ask your father and uncle about these things?" Linglong didn't want to go into trouble, and said with a smile: "Men are always careless, and many things can be remembered in normal times, but they are forgotten when they are serious. Like my uncle once I remember all the roast veal I ate, but my uncle forgot to mention it. Madam, maybe His Royal Highness King Zhou can find out something based on this trivial matter, I don’t know." Mrs. Chang thought for a while, sighed, "He is very filial, so it's hard for me to say anything. Although he came suddenly, fortunately, A Jie made proper arrangements. He just said that you are with me in the small Buddhist hall, and there is no other hindrance."

Linglong stuck out her tongue mischievously, "It's just a little weird, nothing."

Jingjia, Jingxi, and Shengchun probably felt uncomfortable. Why didn't Linglong stay with the sisters after dinner? What did Mrs. Chang just call her over?However, no matter how uncomfortable they felt, there was nothing they could do about Mrs. Chang.For them, Mrs. Chang is aloof and unquestionable.

Mrs. Chang took her little hand and said softly, "I'll take you out."

Linglong grinned, "Then I will have a lot of face, thank you very much."

Mrs. Chang and Xu Chuanjie's mother and daughter felt pity for her when they saw her so lively and cheerful.A little girl's family was called to that cold-faced Saburo for questioning, and it was really rare to be able to do this after she came back.

Before Linglong followed Mrs. Chang out of the small Buddhist hall, she couldn't help but look up, "Madam, do you come here every day?"

"No." Mrs. Chang smiled, "I just come here occasionally."

Linglong let out a long breath of relief.

"Little Linglong, what's the matter, is there anything wrong with coming here every day?" Mrs. Chang asked softly.

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Linglong smiled coyly, "Well, I always feel that if people are happy and happy, people will believe in Buddhism, but they won't be too obsessed..."

Seeing Mrs. Chang and Xu Chuanjie looking at her curiously, Linglong felt embarrassed and couldn't continue.

"It really makes sense." Mrs. Chang couldn't help laughing.

"It's really smart." Xu Chuanjie couldn't help holding Linglong's other hand.

Linglong was dragged away by Mrs. Chang and Xu Chuanjie one by one, and she felt like a spoiled little girl.

"Ma'am, do you have a young unmarried son?" She asked with a smile.

"Yes." Mrs. Chang smiled, "Ajie has a younger brother, who is only fourteen this year. He works as a guard in the palace and refuses to come with us. He just likes the prosperity of the capital, and he also likes to be with his cousin, The cousins ​​are playing around together."

"I see." Linglong giggled.

"What is little sister thinking?" Xu Chuanjie was curious.

"It's nothing, it's really nothing." Linglong shook her head repeatedly.

I really didn't think about it, but Jingjia, Jingxi and Shengchun would think about something.Maybe they will think that Mrs. Chang likes me so much because she has a young son, hehe.
