Chapter 1177: Lu Tingfang's suspicions
First. Don't clash with Tianzhu, Tianfang and Persia, but show goodwill and trade with them.
Second. Through trade, the caravans entered the land of Tianzhu, Tianfang and Persia, and tried to grasp all the information of these three countries.
Third. Although more than 30 small countries on the Silk Road have been defeated and incorporated into their own territory, it is necessary to further integrate them, so that these small countries can truly integrate with the grassland and become a part of the grassland.
After sending the letter, Luo Xin happily set off to return to the capital. However, when Luo Xin had just left the southeast the day after he was stopped by a person, who was the family member of Luo Xin's father-in-law, Lu Tingfang, who delivered a letter to Luo Xin. Luo Xin opened the letter and looked at it, but it was Lu Tingfang who asked him to go to his hometown Yanglin County immediately, and he was waiting for him in his old mansion.
"When did your master return to Yanglin County?" Luo Xin asked.
The family hurriedly saluted: "Back to my uncle, my lord accepted the invitation of a friend and returned to Yanglin County half a month ago. ”
"Okay, you can go back first. You don't have to rush, just walk slowly. I will travel to Yanglin County soon. ”
"Uncle, I'll ...... with you"
Luo Xin looked at this family, who was also fifty years old, then shook his head and said:
"I was ordered to go back to Beijing, and I didn't have much time. So I will ride a horse all the way to Yanglin County in civilian clothes, and you can't keep up. ”
"I ......"
Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "That's it." ”
"Daqing, Daquan!"
Wan Daquan and Lu Daqing quickly came to Luo Xin.
"Master Hou!"
"Daquan took two people, and we left secretly. Daqing, you take the team, let the team slow down, and I will try to return before the team reaches the capital. ”
"Yes!"
Yanglin County.
It only took three days for Luo Xin and his party to come to Yanglin County. In the past three days, most of the four of them have spent most of their time on horseback, and these four people have ridden good horses, which can be described as traveling thousands of miles in a day and 800 in night. At this time, he stood in front of the county gate of Yanglin County, covered with wind and dust.
The four of them were all dressed in civilian clothes, with hats, and they were dusty. walked into Yanglin County and walked on the street with a horse. But I didn't recognize Luo Xin.
He didn't go to the Lu Mansion immediately, but entered a Qingxin teahouse and asked for a private room, Luo Xin walked in, and Wan Daquan stood at the door with three people. There was a hint of caution on the man's face, and he followed Luo Xin into the box, nodded and said:
"Master, what kind of tea do you drink?"
Luo Xin looked at the guy and said lightly: "I drank too much Qingxin tea, do you have turbidity tea here?" ”
The guy looked stunned, and his expression immediately became respectful, and he said in a low voice:
"Qingxin Teahouse, how many pots do you want to drink?"
"The first pot!"
The guy was stunned, and then his expression became more respectful and said, "Wait a minute. ”
Not long after the guy withdrew, the shopkeeper of the Qingxin Teahouse walked in, closed the door with his backhand, and then saluted Luo Xinshi:
"The shopkeeper of Qingxin Teahouse has seen the envoy, but I don't know who the envoy is?"
Luo Xin took off the hat on his head, and he also knew the people in front of him, and everyone who became Wang Cuiqiao's real confidant would be brought to Luo Xin by Wang Cuiqiao once to meet Luo Xin. As soon as the man saw Luo Xin's true face, his expression was shocked, and he hurriedly saluted deeply:
"My lord, why are you here? Aren't you on your way to the capital? ”
"Sit!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"Tell me about what's happened in Yanglin County recently?"
The shopkeeper began to report the recent events in Yanglin County, and when he finished reporting, Luo Xin frowned slightly and said:
"You mean, after my father-in-law came back, he went to Shanglin Village to look for my grandfather? After I didn't find my grandfather again, I asked the villagers of Shanglin Village about my grandfather? ”
"Yes!"
Luo Xin's face became solemn, Luo Heng had left the capital on the grounds of returning to his hometown. As long as Luo Xin is still in the capital, no one will care where his grandfather has gone. And since Lu Shan, Liu Shouyou, and Huang Jin from Dongchang are all their own people, and they will not and dare not pay attention to Luo Xin's family. So it's been all the while. But he didn't expect Lu Tingfang to return to Yanglin County. As Luo Xin's father-in-law, since he has returned to Yanglin County, he will naturally visit Luo Xin's grandfather, which is a courtesy.
Luo Xin rubbed his eyebrows, but he knew that his old father-in-law had deep wisdom. I made myself so anxious to come back this time, I'm afraid I guessed something.
With a wave of his hand, let the shopkeeper leave. Luo Xin sat there with a frown, Lu Tingfang must have suspected something. But will you be able to tell the truth?
In this era, Cheng Zhu's science has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, especially in the hearts of readers. Once he knows what he has done, how will Lu Tingfang choose?
Anyway, I have to see Lu Tingfang. sighed, called Wan Daquan and the three people in, ate refreshments together, drank a pot of tea, and the four of them left the teahouse and went straight to the Lu Mansion.
Soon, he came to the Lu Mansion, knocked on the door, and entered the Lu Mansion. asked the housekeeper of the Lu Mansion to entertain Wan Daquan and the three of them, and he went straight to Lu Tingfang's study.
Lu Tingfang had already received the reward, and when she saw Luo Xin walk into the study, she looked at Luo Xin coldly and said:
"Close the door and sit down."
Luo Xin sighed in his heart, closed the door, and sat opposite Lu Tingfang.
There was silence in the study, and Lu Tingfang just looked at Luo Xin without saying a word. Luo Xin had a headache at this time, he knew what kind of virtue the scholars and doctors were in this era, Cheng Zhu Lixue had a deep influence, and Zhongjun's thoughts were serious, and it was not much easier than heaven to change their views.
couldn't kill Lu Tingfang, which made Luo Xin really sad.
"You don't have anything to say to me?" For half an hour, Lu Tingfang said lightly.
"Say what?" didn't come up with a way, Luo Xin had to pretend not to understand: "Father-in-law will not recruit him, but is there something?" ”
"I'm going to Shanglin Village." Lu Tingfang stared at Luo Xin.
Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said, "My grandfather didn't go back to Shanglin Village. ”
Lu Tingfang's eyes shrank, and he said in a condensed voice: "Your grandfather is not in Shanglin Village, and your uncle is not here, not only are they not there, but your grandmother, your aunt, your sister-in-law, cousin-in-law, and your nephew are not there." However, they originally said that they would go to Lin Village. No, can you tell me where they are? ”
Luo Xin was silent for a moment and said, "They are in seclusion. ”
"Why?"
Luo Xin sighed, looked up at Lu Tingfang and said, "Father-in-law, it's not that you don't know my situation. If something happens to me, my family will definitely be implicated. I just don't want them to be implicated. Away from the capital, live in seclusion, once something happens to me, they will have one more way to live. Even if the court starts to arrest them, they will have time to escape. ”
