Chapter 45 Aunt Lu!
Two thousand five hundred miles apart from Taiyuan, the war in the Central Plains is difficult to affect Suzhou City in the northwest border.
The huge city has just passed by the atmosphere of the first lunar month. Foreign merchants started to set off again, and loaded with goods began to travel back and forth annually.
The streets and alleys are considered prosperous, but they are located outside the Great Wall. Apart from the merchants and border troops, there is nothing worth watching. If something new happens occasionally, it will attract the attention of most people.
It was noon after noon and the prince returned to the city.
A boat of girls was riding in a car frame, following Xu Buling, who was as white as snow, and slowly walked across Xianlong Street in the crossing of the people of Suzhou.
Maybe the people were too enthusiastic, and the girls obviously didn't want to give up. They didn't even dare to look at each other, and hid honestly in the carriage.
When he arrived at Prince Su's mansion, Prince Su Xu You stood outside the gate with a smile, and behind him were generals, guests and staff, and the attitude of greeting was grand.
The girls got off the car one after another, and saw that the scene was obviously a little restrained. They hid behind Xiao Qi and Lu Hongluan and almost formed a long snake formation.
Xu Buling would naturally not be nervous when he returned to his home. He enthusiastically introduced the guests to King Su, saying, "This is my master, this is my senior sister, this is Zhongli Jiujiu, this is Jiujiu's apprentice..."
The relationship was in a mess, and the King Su who was in charge was stunned.
I thought I had just brought back a few girls, so why did I have two pairs of masters and apprentices?
Who married this master and apprentice?
Don't say we're married together...
Ning Yuhe seems to be the queen who escaped from marriage. According to seniority, she has to be called the sister-in-law who has not passed away...
King Su Xu You thought for a long time, but he didn't know what to calculate in this generation. Finally, he simply put on the prince's airs and nodded slightly and said nothing.
Naturally, the girls didn't want to chat with King Su. After greeting him properly, they entered the palace.
The Su Palace is quite large, but the Xu family has three generations of single-handed family, with no relatives, and most of the houses are empty.
The girls may have to settle down in the Xu family, so naturally they won’t stay in the guest room. Everyone arranged a house to take the girls in, eat, take the room, clean up the room after a while. After a while, it took most of the day.
In the study room of the royal palace, after King Su Xu You met Xiao Qi, he sat on a chair, holding a teacup, and his face was still a bit strange.
Xu Buling sat next to the coffee table, holding the wedding arrangements that lasted a few days in his hand, and checked them carefully under the lights.
Lu Hongluan sat next to the coffee table, folding her hands around her waist, and her expression was very awkward. She wanted to speak several times, but she didn't know where to start.
Xu You was in Chang'an City and was often troubled by Lu Hongluan, who was still a little girl, and he was so polite when he was cheating money and asked him for help. He looked at him a few times and said curiously:
"Little sour radish, do you have something to do?"
Lu Hongluan narrowed her eyes slightly, and after holding it in for a while, she still didn't respond. Instead, she smiled with a pursed lips:
"Brother Xu, I'll discuss something with you. Well... it's a bit difficult to talk about..."
Xu You smiled and was very easy-going: "I have known you for so many years and have always regarded you as a girl. What's wrong with talking about?"
“…”
Lu Hongluan Fengyun showed a bit of blush and embarrassment on her cheeks, and she glanced at Xu Buling:
"Actually, it's not a big deal. Well... my sister left early. Ling'er is a child. After arriving in Chang'an, I am closer to Ling'er. I will naturally get close to Ling'er, and then when I get close to you, I... just..."
Xu You smiled a little, knowing Lu Hongluan's meaning.
When Princess Su was still alive, she often mentioned this "god sister" far away in Chang'an. When Xu Buling was born, she once asked Hongluan, who was only about ten years old, to marry him as a child bride. However, the late emperor was in power at that time and the pressure on the princes and the family was relatively tight, and the relationship between the Xu family and the court was not incompatible. In order to avoid suspicion, this proposal was finally put on hold. Later, the marriage between the "Xiao Lu" families was naturally dispelled.
Xu You sent Xu Buling to Chang'an and asked Lu Hongluan to take care of him. First, he knew Lu Hongluan and believed him. Second, Lu Hongluan was a widow when he was a teenager and lived a pitiful life alone. If Princess Su was there, she would definitely not be able to bear it. Let Ling'er be with her, she could take care of her. If two people were together day and night, something would happen... Xu You would be able to avenge her back then!
Xu You smiled and saw through and said nothing:
"That's it? Hongluan, you don't have to be so distracted, just say something."
Lu Hongluan held her skirt tightly, glanced at her nose again, Xu Buling looked at her nose and said with a smile:
"It's... it's just Ling'er, who doesn't abide by the etiquette. When he was in Chang'an, he was to me... to me... forget it, I'm his aunt, and I shouldn't care about these things..."
Judging from this, it was obvious that he was giving up.
Xu Buling shook his head secretly, put down the book, held Lu Hongluan's hand, and spoke very simply:
"Father, Aunt Lu and I truly love each other!"
"Ph—No, no..."
Lu Hongluan was in an instant and shivered, and couldn't hear what she was saying incoherently. She should have wanted to deny and clarify her expression.
Xu You smiled in her heart, but she looked relieved on her face, and sighed slowly:
"Forget it, I know, Hongluan, you...ah... I said back then that I was not worthy of the princess, but now it's good..."
"I……"
Lu Hongluan's face was red and bloody. She had a gentle temperament. She could not deal with this kind of crowd-like execution. She stood up and ran out.
Xu Buling was afraid that Aunt Lu would not be able to think so he quickly got up and raised his hand and bowed:
"Father, I'll go see Aunt Lu."
Xu You picked up the teacup and felt quite happy:
"Go and go, I'll bring you here tomorrow to call you dad. I've been waiting for this day for more than ten years, it's not easy!"
“…”
-----
The night in the house was quiet, and the maids were busy walking through the houses, cleaning up the girls' residences in the future.
Zhu Manzhi, Ning Qingye, and Zhongli Chuchu are all women in the world. They don’t like the feeling of being held by the stars. They sneaked to the side of the palace, sitting on the roof of a building, and also lifted Song Yufu, who was not good at martial arts, to the roof. Four little girls took telescopes and took turns to enjoy the night view inside and outside Suzhou City.
Lu Hongluan walked out of the study of the royal palace and ran to the back house in a hurry. After walking a few steps, he saw the passing maid, and quickly folded his hands on his lower abdomen, making a dignified and steady look.
He had already confessed to King Su, and King Su simply agreed, so Lu Hongluan was naturally a little panicked.
In the past, Lu Hongluan always thought: How shocked will King Su be when he learned about it? Will he object? Or she said that her old cow ate young grass.
Now, it's good that nothing I'm worried about happening, that means...
Lu Hongluan had a tangled expression, buried her head and ran to Xiang'er's yard, hoping to find a good sister to say something to comfort her current messy emotions.
But before he could take a few steps, a figure appeared in front of him. In the middle of the corridor, he was dressed like snow and his face like jade, with the bright smile that he often missed when he was dreaming about at midnight.
"Ling'er..."
Lu Hongluan curled her hands on her chest, and Fengyun's cheeks were panicked. She glanced at her eyes and then quickly looked at the tip of her shoes, and she tried to calm herself down:
"Ling'er, I...I'm tired. Go back to my room to rest. If you have anything to do, let's talk about it tomorrow..."
Xu Buling smiled and stepped forward half a step, looked down at Lu Hongluan's cheek: "Auntie, have you forgotten something?"
"What...what is it?"
Lu Hongluan asked questions clearly and looked confused.
Xu Buling sighed: "It's okay if Aunt Lu forgets. I remember, let's go and get the house done."
Complete the house!!!
Lu Hongluan shrank her neck, her charming and beautiful cheeks were full of shame and panic. After thinking about it, she took out her aunt's aura, raised her hand and slapped Xu Buling's chest:
"Damn kid, what are you talking nonsense? I... I remember, I agreed to pay homage to the world and follow the process. How could you... be so anxious? Aunt Greedy's body is so greedy?"
Xu Buling hugged Lu Hongluan's shoulders and smiled proudly:
"How could I forget what I promised Aunt Lu?"
"Just forget it. Let's talk about it in a few days. I'll go back to my room first..."
"It's already arranged, otherwise what will I do in the afternoon?"
??
Lu Hongluan's slightly relaxed expression froze--in the afternoon she accompanied Xiao Qi to meet King Su, Xu Buling said she was going out to see the wedding scene... It turned out to be going to see her wedding scene!
Lu Hongluan came back to her taste and her eyes suddenly became panicked:
"Ling'er, why are you so anxious? I..."
Xu Buling hugged her a little tightly and smiled brightly: "Let's go, be good! Keep your word."
"I……"
Lu Hongluan bit her lower lip, unwilling to move, and her mind turned sharply and said:
"I...I'll go back to my room to get something, it's very important..."
Xu Buling naturally knew what it was, so he raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
At the corner of the corridor, Xiao Xiang'er, who was eavesdropping on the show, ran out quickly, holding a small box in her hand, and walked to the front with a smile:
"Hongluan, you can't escape today. White handkerchiefs or something. I just asked Yuenu to take it out. There is also the wedding gift I specially prepared for you, dyed it with a green tail. Don't you like wearing green clothes..."
Lu Hongluan was extremely embarrassed, but when she saw Xiao Xianger looking at a joke, she became a little tougher, raised her hand to snatch the small box, and threw her tail back to Xiao Xianger:
"Genggugugugugu, what's wrong with you? My private affairs with Ling'er have nothing to do with you."
This sentence "My private affairs with Ling'er" can be regarded as the way of others to treat others.
Xiao Xianger was not annoyed at all, and smiled with a smile on his almond eyes: "It has nothing to do with me. I can't sleep at night. If you are unhappy, I just took Xu Buling away. It's an old husband and wife. There is no man next to the pillow, so I can't sleep well..."
Lu Hongluan knew that Xiao Xiang'er was irritating her, but she was just angry. She frowned and pulled Xu Buling and left:
"Who said I was unhappy? I asked you to give me a year and didn't rob you. It's because of the friendship between us sisters, and you will have nothing to do in the future..."
Xiao Xiang'er's eyebrows and eyes were curling, watching the two of them go away, and then said, "Hongluan, what do you want to eat tomorrow morning? I'll bring it to you."
"Bah—I don't need you to serve you. You think I can't get up like you..."
The sound is getting farther and farther away.
Xu Buling felt warm in his heart and secretly gave the baby a thumbs up...
