History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 85

Zhu Chengyu obviously did not expect Xu Lang to come, but he said enthusiastically: "I don't know where Brother Xu is staying, and I couldn't invite you in the next post, but now is just right." He is still wearing a red cloak today, with a golden crown on his head, The brocade boots on the feet are brand new, and the riding whip is flamboyant and wanton.

Xu Lang smiled and said, "I happened to meet Sixth Sister, so I came to join in the fun."

Because they were afraid that there would be too many carriages on the mountain road and it would be inconvenient to walk, Zhu Hanxiang and Shen Yulian took the same carriage, two carriages and three rides in total.A group of people first went to Rui County Prince's Mansion, met Jun Xu there, and then drove out of the city.Zhu's family arranged to view the scenery at Phoenix Mountain in the south of the city. The autumn scenery was open and clear along the way. Lin Lang and Qin Zhen hung up the car curtains to enjoy watching. Zhu Hanxiang and Shen Yulian in front were chatting and laughing non-stop.

The four good horses in the back, Jun Xu, Xu Lang and Zhu Chengyu talked and laughed side by side, Shen Congjia suffered a disadvantage in Xu Lang's hands twice, and was unwilling to approach him, so he tied the bridle close to the side.

Fenghuang Mountain is a scenic spot outside Huaiyang City, where tourists come and go all year round for outings in spring, enjoying the cool air in summer, viewing leaves in autumn, and viewing snow in winter.After a long time, the local people disliked the narrow and difficult mountain road, so the government funded the construction of an official road on the mountain. The mountain road more than ten feet wide spiraled up, and the horse-drawn carriage could travel steadily.

In autumn, it is still warm when exposed to the sun, but the wind is strong in the mountains, and it is still a bit cool when it blows over.Lin Lang wrapped her cloak to look at the scenery, Zhu Chengyu chatted with Xu Lang, and asked, "I see Miss He, she seems to be very afraid of the cold?" Shen Congjia didn't pay much attention to this remark, but Jun Xu couldn't help but look at it come over.

Xu Lang learned a lesson from what happened to Pei Minglan earlier, so he didn't dare to tell others about Linlang's weakness, so he said, "I'm so delicate at home, I just don't want to blow the wind."

Jun Xu asked: "Second Brother Xu and Miss He are familiar?"

"Our two families are family friends, this time going south, the He family entrusted me to take care of her more." Xu Lang glanced at Jun Xu, just in time to see his gaze lingering on Lin Lang's carriage.He is a person who is very good at observing words and demeanor. This trip to the south, on the one hand, he can appreciate the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and on the other hand, he can touch the relationship between the characters in the south.

Chatting along the way, he paid attention to the behavior of Junxu and Zhu Chengyu, both of them were looking towards Linlang.The difference is that Zhu Chengyu looked at it recklessly, with a playful meaning, but Jun Xu was different. Every time he looked at it, his eyes would linger for a while, and his whole person softened a lot.

Zhu Chengyu looks flamboyant, even frivolous at times, but his mind is very deep. Xu Lang still can't figure out his mind, but this son is gentle and modest. It was surprising to send inkstone last time, and now it's like this... ...He obviously has a heart for Lin Lang!
Xu Lang couldn't help but look back at Lin Lang's carriage.For the convenience of seeing the scenery, the car curtain has been completely lifted, and the beautiful person inside is lying beside Qin Zhen, pointing at the side hillside.The sun reflected on her face, her eyebrows, lips and nose fell into her eyes, everything was exquisite and beautiful, it was a matter of course for such a beautiful person to be liked by others, but the little girl on the cusp of her heart was coveted by others, how could she feel so sad in her heart? Weird?
He took a slow step subconsciously, and when Lin Lang's carriage came up, he said, "It's cold in the mountains, put down the curtain."

Lin Lang let out a "hmm" and put down the curtain obediently.

Xu Lang's face was as calm as water, but a secret joy rose in his heart.This is his sister next door, and she only listens to him. As for Zhu Chengyu and the eldest son, have they been friends with Lin Lang for many years?Do they have all kinds of gadgets from Lin Lang since she was a child?Will Lin Lang listen obediently to what they say?Can Lin Lang trust them easily?
With such a calculation, he really has the upper hand.But the little girl is innocent and doesn't know how to weigh, so she can't let these two people be abducted.

The mountain road twists and turns, and it disappears when it reaches the top of the mountain. The terrain here is more open and flat, and a villa has been built by taking advantage of the mountain. The houses are steeply erected layer by layer, and the stone paths in the middle are connected.This is the usual place to enjoy the scenery, and the Zhu family has arranged for people to wait here.It's just that there is still a short distance from the top of the mountain, and the girls rarely come out, and they all want to go to the top of the mountain to have a look around, but the manager has no choice but to agree.

Xu Lang and the other four were not afraid of the rugged mountain roads, but the young girls were spoiled and spoiled. Fortunately, they had prepared shoulder pads for the boys to carry them up.

As soon as we reached the top of the mountain, the terrain suddenly opened up, and the continuous mountains were undulating. On one side of the mountain, maple trees were like fire, and on the other side, there were pines and cypresses interspersed with red and yellow leaves, like colored paintings.

Such an open landscape makes people feel refreshed, the sky is vast and the land is vast, and the mountains are majestic, and people are as small as ants in it.

Lin Lang burst into a smile, looking at the scenery greedily, and at the same time felt the true taste of "the heights are too cold".The violent mountain wind blew over, the cloak fluttered up, and the body was much deserted.She was thinking about adding another dress when Jun Xu walked up to her, holding his own cloak in his hand, and said, "Miss He is afraid of the cold, why don't you wear this first?"

He is 12 years old now, and Lin Lang has not yet reached the age of Ji, so when he handed it over frankly, it was hard to think of where else to go.

Lin Lang glanced at his well-raised body, who dared not take it, and hurriedly said: "My son, put on your clothes quickly, the wind on the top of the mountain is strong, be careful not to catch a cold, I'm fine here." Jun Xu insisted on giving it, and the two were declining, Xu Lang behind After striding over to Linlang and stopping next to Linlang, the mountain breeze suddenly became much quieter.

Xu Lang, who had broad shoulders and a healthy body, stood there like a rock, blocking most of the wind.I don't know if it was prepared in advance or just went back to pick it up, Xu Lang was still holding a beautiful thick cloak in his hand, and immediately wrapped it up for her, Jun Xu gave up.

Satisfied after watching the scenery, the little girls still rode down on their shoulders, and only then began to enjoy the autumn.

After all, the houses and courtyards excavated by the mountains are different. The open halls of the same wooden houses with open windows and low walls, take advantage of the surrounding mountains to form a landscape.The little girls couldn't wait to walk around to watch, Zhu Chengyu was today's master, in case they would make a mistake, he arranged for Jun Xu and Shen Congjia to rest in the living room and follow.Xu Lang was worried about Lin Lang, so of course he followed.

The two followed behind them, Zhu Chengyu said: "I heard that the autumn scenery in Mobei is open and magnificent, how is it compared to Jiangnan?"

"In the north and south, the scenery has its own spring and autumn."

Zhu Chengyu smiled again, "Both the capital and the south of the Yangtze River are so beautiful. According to Brother Xu, how about them?"

"There are still advantages to each."

On the front steps, the little girl was bouncing up and down, and the cardamom girl was exquisite and full of vigor.Zhu Chengyu laughed and said: "In my opinion, the girls in the capital are more dignified, and the girls in the south of the Yangtze River are more beautiful, but this Miss He has both."

Xu Lang smiled when he heard the words, "Brother Zhu has a good eye."
