Chapter 199 Talk
After a night of wind and snow, the sky is still gloomy, giving people a depressing and desolate feeling. Listening to the cold wind outside, Lv Xianger leaned down on her ** and yawned lazily, with no intention of getting up.
The Lu family, which was originally lively, is now very lonely. After eating at the Guogong Mansion last night, Chaoxia couldn't bear to look at Mrs. Li and looked at herself with tears in her eyes, and followed her to the Zhongyong Palace. When they returned to Lu's house, only Lv Xianger and Lv Hong were the brothers and sisters. Moreover, Lv Hong, who was drunk, was helped back to his yard by Xiaowu to sleep when he got home. Lu Xianger has felt the coldness at home since last night, and she doesn't know when she fell asleep.
He woke up and opened his eyes, waiting for Chaoxia to call her Lv Xianger. It took a long time to remember that Chaoxia became Li Qingyu and returned to her home. Thinking of this, Lv Xianger, who is used to the large number of people, can't lift a little spirit. Looking at Lv Xianger, who was in a daze on the top of her head and didn't know what she was thinking about, she unconsciously touched the sword on her chest. After a long time, Lv Xianger slowly recovered her mind and remembered the thing that made her confused last night.
It's strange to say that Lv Xianger clearly felt that Li Xingzhou, the loyal and brave king, looked at herself several times intentionally or unintentionally at the dinner party. Lv Erniang also looked at herself with full of things. But from beginning to end, no one came to tell or do anything that Lv Xianger could guess. Lv Xianger couldn't imagine, so she left this mystery in the bottom of her heart.
Thinking about whether to go to the State Mansion to find out from Lv Erniang, Lv Xianger heard that the door of her room had been opened. Feeling a cold air rushed into the bedroom, Lv Xianger also heard Xiao Cui's voice: "Little lady, I asked me to tell you that he went out and may not come back for dinner at noon."
"I know." Listening to Xiao Cui's words and the sound of her pouring water, Lv Xianger sat up and put on her clothes. But in Lv Xianger's heart, she was thinking about how Lv Hong was about to go to the palace to take the final martial arts test. How could he go out at this time?
When she got off the ground, Lv Xianger ran out of the bedroom. When she saw Xiao Cui, she asked, "Where did you say where did he go?"
"Go back to the little lady, I don't know. However, the prince went out by himself and didn't take Brother Wu with him. When Lv Xianger was washing, Xiao Cui went to the bedroom to tidy up Lv Xianger's bed. Unable to hear Lv Xianger's reply, Xiao Cui said, "Little lady, my mother-in-law has already made breakfast. Is it the maidservant who brought it here, or the little lady will go to the main room to eat?"
"I'll go to the main room to eat. There is no Sister Chaoxia in this yard, and it's boring to stay. Lv Xianger picked up a hand towel and gently wiped her face, and her heart was even more confused.
Maybe I know that Lv Xianger has no appetite. Grandma Sun's cooking is very simple, a bowl of white porridge, two steamed buns, and a plate of appetizing pickles. When Lv Xianger saw the food on the table, she understood Grandma Sun's intention and ate half of her face. Xiao Cui, who was accompanying him, also had a smile on his face when he served the leftovers.
After dinner, Lv Xianger looked at the accounts sent by the wine shop and didn't know what to do. Usually, when Lv Xianger has nothing to do, she will also talk to Chaoxia. But now, there is no one to talk to. Lu Xianger shook her head gently and was stunned again. Even when the room came into the house again, Lu Xianger didn't notice it.
Huo Qingsong stood at the door to dispel the cold air on his body. Listening to the no movement in the hall, he couldn't help swung his mouth and whispered, "Your little lady, is it like this?"
Xiao Cui seemed to be a little afraid of the cold Huo Qingsong. She lowered her head slightly and whispered, "The little lady has been very quiet since she got up in the morning. Maybe she is not used to the absence of the little lady in Chaoxia."
"Hmm. By the way, tell Grandma Sun that guests will come in the evening and prepare more meals. Huo Qingsong nodded and walked to the hall where Lv Xianger was.
Xiao Cui got Huo Qingsong's instructions and immediately went to the backyard to tell Grandma Sun, and quickly returned to the main room. She was told by Lv Erniang to take good care of Lv Xianger. She can't let Huo Qingsong and Lv Xianger get along alone. Therefore, Xiao Cui cleaned the dust in the main hall and paid attention to the movement in the hall.
Last night, when he came out of the Guogong Mansion, Huo Qingsong saw a lonely look on Lv Xianger's face. Sitting in the captain's mansion today, he has been thinking about Lu Xianger and has no calmness in the past. Seeing that Fang Zhe was there in the lieutenant's mansion, and there was nothing wrong, Huo Qingsong found a reason to come to the Lv family to see Lv Xianger.
Looking at Lv Xianger sitting alone in the wide chair by the window, holding her knees and looking at the charcoal basin in a daze, an inexplicable emotion gushed out of Huo Qingsong's heart. After settled down, Huo Qingsong gently poured a glass of hot water, walked to Lv Xianger's side and handed it to her.
Lv Xianger looked at the hot water cup in front of her and was stunned. When she saw Huo Qingsong next to her, Lu Xianger was surprised: "Why are you here?"
"I have nothing to do today, so I'll come to see you." When Huo Qingsong said this, his tone was a little unnatural, and Lv Xianger could naturally hear it.
Lv Xianger took the water cup and inferred most of his thoughts from Huo Qingsong's face and his behavior today. Thinking of Huo Qingsong's feelings for herself, Lv Xianger did not drink hot water and felt warm in her heart. After taking a sip of hot water and raising her head, a sweet smile appeared on Lv Xianger's face.
When Huo Qingsong saw Lv Xianger's smiling face, he immediately disappeared, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. For a moment, Huo Qingsong felt that as long as he could see that smiling face, it seemed that everything was worth doing. This kind of mood that has never been before made Huo Qingsong very surprised and a little afraid, but more happy. It's really complicated.
Lv Xianger put the teacup on the table next to her, and then realized that her posture was a little inappropriate. She immediately put down her legs and sat down. She didn't want Huo Qingsong to pay attention to her behavior. Lu Xianger also said at the same time, "Why don't you see Qingqing?"
"I went to the palace and told the Empress Song about what happened last night." Lv Xianger's movements were very careful, but Huo Qingsong was very careful. He didn't want Lv Xianger to know that he was shy, so he pretended not to see anything and talked to Lv Xianger.
However, Huo Qingsong is not good at words, and he really can't say anything. Moreover, looking at Lu Xianger like this, he felt very good, as if he didn't need to say anything. After Lu Xianger finished talking about Huo Qingqing, she didn't know what to say. The two sat in the hall and were very quiet for a while. This made Xiao Cui outside very strange. They all wanted to come in and check it out.
Fortunately, Lv Xianger remembered the little sword tied to her neck again and wanted to talk to Huo Qingsong. In Huo Qingsong's surprised eyes, Lv Xianger took out the sword with some shyness. He walked to Huo Qingsong and spread out his palm to let him see the little sword clearly.
"Do you remember this little sword?" As Lv Xianger spoke, she also lowered her head and looked at the little sword in her hand.
Huo Qingsong nodded, picked it up and said, "I remember, it's very sharp, and it saved your life."
As he said, Huo Qingsong's heart was a little dry. This little sword has been close to Lv Xianger for many years, and naturally brings some body fragrance on her body. Moreover, when Huo Qingsong picked it up, he felt that Lv Xianger's body temperature remained on the sword. Looking at this small object of 'intimate contact' with Lv Xianger, Huo Qingsong couldn't help picking up the water glass beside him to relieve his dry throat.
As the saying goes, I have never eaten pork, and I have never seen a pig run. Lv Xianger felt something from Huo Qingsong's behavior. She took back her little sword with one hand, and there was some shame in her expression. After Bai Huo Qingsong's glance, Lv Xianger immediately whispered, "This little sword was given to me by my father. He said that he bought it from Hu Shang and gave me a birthday gift."
"Oh, the price of this little sword must not be low." Huo Qingsong saw with his own eyes that Lv Xianger took this small sword and cut the big wooden barrel containing rice like cutting tofu. Although this sharp weapon is small, it cannot be underestimated. It must be of great value.
"That's what I think. Just the gem on it, you will know that it is not ordinary. Lv Xianger nodded, opened her palm again, and looked at the gems inlaid on the sword. But after a pause in her tone, Lv Xianger suddenly said, "Although my father is a famous businessman in Guizhou, I don't believe that this sword is so valuable."
"You mean, this is not bought by your father?" Huo Qingsong is a general and naturally has some insight. Hearing what Lv Xianger said, Huo Qingsong also looked carefully and slowly condensed his eyebrows. Pulling out the sword, Huo Qing loosed the cold blade and nodded, "At this time, if you look carefully, I'm afraid your guess is right. The value of this little sword will definitely not be too low."
When Lv Xianger heard Huo Qingsong's affirmation, she sighed gently: "Last night, A Niang specially asked me to show my little sword in front of Mrs. Li. At that time, Dr. Li looked very strange, and she also told Prince Li about it..."
"...I feel that my mother is hiding something from me, but she doesn't tell me. I don't know if I should ask her." Lv Xianger raised her head and looked a little melancholy. She whispered to Huo Qingsong, "I don't know why, but I have a feeling that this little sword is related to a big thing, and I am also involved in it."
Huo Qingsong had understood what Lv Xianger meant. He put the little sword into the scabbard and untied it on Lv Xianger's neck with his own hands. After that, Huo Qingsong also held Lv Xianger in his arms and whispered, "It's okay. I'm here. From now on, you don't have to worry about this matter. I'll deal with it.
Lv Xianger leaned honestly in Huo Qingsong's arms and felt very at ease. Although Lv Xianger didn't say it, Huo Qingsong also thought of it. Lv Tai was killed by the king of Chen for snitching, and only Lv Xianger escaped. There is such a thing on Lv Xianger's body, and it is difficult not to let people think about it elsewhere. Suddenly, Huo Qingsong suddenly thought of Song Yuan. Song Yuan served in the Lv family for two years, and still rescued Lv Xianger when he was in danger. Maybe you can know something from Song Yuan.
After made up his mind, Huo Qingsong said softly, "I understand the test in front of the hall. Do you want to have a look..."
