Chapter 202: Quarrel
The sky gradually sank, and the late autumn and early winter evenings always came quickly, turning from dusk to night in almost ten minutes, and the night soon took over the entire sky.
In the bedroom, Lin Feng and Li Xiaojun still hugged each other and whispered their lingering love on the sofa, the two of them didn't notice that the sky was darkening and the temperature had dropped, it seemed that all of this had nothing to do with them, as long as they were still close to each other, then even if it was always night, it would be forever day for them.
Suddenly, Lin Feng's afterglow caught a glimpse of a figure outside the window, as if he was leaning his ear against the window and wanted to eavesdrop, Lin Feng couldn't help frowning, reached out and slowly helped Li Xiaojun in his arms up, and at the same time made a silent gesture to her, and then pointed the index finger of his mouth to the figure outside the window.
Following Lin Feng's reassuring look, Li Xiaojun couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and almost exclaimed directly, and then turned his head to look at Lin Feng in surprise, Lin Feng nodded slightly, handed her back a reassuring look, and then slowly got up, and tiptoed out of the bedroom with half a cat.
"Steward Hu! What are you doing here? The moment he opened the door, Lin Feng had already dodged and stood on the steps outside the door, although it was already completely dark, but his sharp eyes still recognized that the person with his ear attached to the window was Steward Hu, the head of the Marquis's Mansion.
"Ahh Steward Hu was already screaming at Lin Feng's sudden appearance, and suddenly stood a little helpless and looked at Lin Feng, as if he was doing something unsightly and was caught by his master, and he was a little speechless.
"Huh? What are you doing here! Lin Feng saw that the other party did not answer, and then asked in a deep voice. Although the voice was not loud, it carried a strong majesty and an invisible murderous aura that instantly condensed.
"The old slave should die, the old slave should die! Hou Ye spares his life! Steward Hu was suddenly frightened and his legs weakened, and he knelt on the ground with a "poof" and kowtowed again and again to admit his mistake, begging for mercy in his mouth, and even raised his hand to give himself two loud slaps.
"Shut up!" Lin Feng stopped him with a snort, and at the same time glanced into the room, and after making sure that Lin Yu in the room was not disturbed, he looked at Steward Hu who was kneeling on the ground in front of him with murderous intent and asked, "You don't manage the affairs of the mansion well, why did you come here to eavesdrop?" ”
"Wronged, wronged, Hou Ye!" Steward Hu immediately kowtowed again when he heard this, and shouted in a crying voice, but his voice was much quieter than before. Seeing that Lin Feng didn't continue to ask, Steward Hu raised his head slightly, still explaining with a hint of crying: "It's time to eat, and the old slave saw that the Hou Ye's room was still pitch black, so he wanted to come over and listen to the movements in the room for a while, so as not to disturb the Hou Ye and his wife, as well as the little Hou Ye for a while!" ”
Lin Feng's brows were still furrowed, although Steward Hu had been caught by himself just now, but his explanation not only made people unable to find fault with the problem, but also felt his loyalty.
"Wait! I'll let you know when it's time to eat! It's none of your business, let's go down first! Lin Feng frowned and waved his hand, and then added: "No matter what the situation is in the future, just do your own thing!" Shape up or ship out! ”
"Thank you, Master Hou! Thank you, Master Hou! Steward Hu kowtowed a few more times before he got up like he had been amnestied, and he didn't even dare to stand firm and retreated, during which he kept raising his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and his whole body was trembling.
After standing on the steps and watching Steward Hu's back gradually disappear, Lin Feng's frowning brows gradually relaxed, but his heart was even tighter. At this moment, the room guarded by the Feng Kill brothers in the backyard poked a head out of the window and looked at Lin Feng, Lin Feng immediately raised his hand and beckoned to him, and then stood in place and pondered.
"Brother Feng, what's the matter?" The Feng Killing Brother on duty ran up to Lin Feng and asked with a smile.
"In the future, idlers are not allowed to approach the backyard!" Lin Feng lowered his voice and admonished.
"That... Just now.. The man obviously didn't understand Lin Feng's words very well, and pointed back at Steward Hu who had just left, his face full of puzzlement.
"Including Steward Hu! If there is anything important, you can convey it on your behalf! Say hello to your brothers when you get back! These are extraordinary times, so don't be sloppy! Lin Feng instructed again in detail before waving at the man and signaling him to leave.
Lin Feng was also taken aback when he turned around and returned to the room, because Li Xiaojun was standing at the door, Lin Feng's heart suddenly tightened, and he pretended to smile easily: "It's okay, it's time to eat!" Steward Hu was worried about disturbing us, so. ”
"Don't say it, I know it all." Before Lin Feng's lies were finished, they were exposed by Li Xiaojun with a word, and he opened his mouth and swallowed back the lies that had not yet been spoken.
"Brother Feng, what's going on?" Li Xiaojun raised her head slightly, asked with a serious expression, when she saw that Lin Feng was about to answer immediately, she knew that Lin Feng was about to continue to make up lies, and hurriedly added: "I heard what you said to the brothers below outside just now, don't make it up again!" ”
Lin Feng opened his mouth, but finally closed it, suffocated back those kind lies that he had thought of for a moment, and muttered for a moment, knowing that he could no longer hide, he lowered his voice and told Li Xiaojun the truth: "There is a change in Chengdu Mansion, and the emperor's secret letter will let me save the driver!" ”
"Huh!" Li Xiaojun couldn't help but let out a sneer, raised his head slightly to stare at Lin Feng's gaze, perhaps because he was too concerned, and asked in a very excited tone: "You go?" How many people are you going to take with you? What is Chengdu Mansion? The thousands of guards around the emperor are useless, and it will be useful if you go? ”
"I can't help it." Lin Feng replied helplessly, and then lowered his head slightly, no longer explaining more.
"No way? What a way! Li Xiaojun seemed to be a person who had suddenly changed, her eyes became cold, and she hummed out of her mouth with a sneer almost all of her words, and in the end, she suddenly turned back sideways and pointed to the bedroom and roared heartbreakingly: "Such a big marquis mansion, such a big Hanzhong mansion!" You are on the front line all day, month or even year, and our mother and son stay here not only to worry about you, but also to live a precarious life! There's no way to do it?! ”
Lin Feng was also really taken aback by Li Xiaojun's sudden change, and he was stunned and a little at a loss, because he clearly saw in the dark that Li Xiaojun's eyes no longer had the original tenderness, and instead there was a look mixed with multiple emotions, some lonely, some lonely. There is loneliness, there is coldness. There is disappointment, and even despair.
"Wow..."
A cry woke the two up, originally Lin Feng had already reached out and grabbed Li Xiaojun's arm and wanted to explain in detail, but it was Lin Yu's cry in the bedroom that caused Li Xiaojun to shake his arm fiercely, turned around and ran in quickly, leaving the stunned Lin Feng alone in place.
