Chapter 410: False Temptation
As soon as the two of them returned to the Wei Mansion, they saw that the Wei Mansion was in a hurry, and many people still had anxious expressions on their faces.
Su Qiqi picked Zhang Ru's palm with his fingers: "It won't be that the matter is revealed!" ”
Before seeing Xu Huaiyuan's head, this former White Lotus Sect saintess only had anger in her heart, but after seeing Xu Huaiyuan's head, she felt a little more fear and worry in her heart.
At this time, it is the honeymoon period of Zhang Ru and Xu Li, and this honeymoon period is likely to be broken because of Xu Huaiyuan's death.
A person hurried by, just bumping into Zhang Ru, and he didn't apologize, so he walked straight ahead.
Zhang Ru grabbed him and said, "Xu Liang, what's going on?" ”
Xu Liang saw that it was Zhang Ru, and it was not easy to go any further, so he stood in place and explained with a panicked expression: "The little boy is gone, leaving a letter, and now the grandfather is almost angry." ”
Su Qiqi's eyelids jumped, and he almost couldn't stand steadily.
Fortunately, Zhang Ru secretly supported her.
Zhang Ru pretended to be concerned and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Xu Liang said: "The little prince said in the letter that he had brought a lot of trouble to the Wei Mansion, and he felt guilty and did not want to stay in the mansion anymore, saying that he wanted to go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers. But the little boy's leg injury is not healed, he is alone, where can he go. The grandfather is worried that someone has bad intentions, but he is afraid that the little boy is now more than lucky. ”
Zhang Ru comforted: "Don't think about things in the bad way, maybe there are other people around the little grandfather who can help him leave." ”
Xu Liang nodded distractedly, and said very apologetically: "Adult, there is something to do with the small one, so I won't tell the adult." If you have time, please go and see Grandpa. ”
Zhang Ru waved his hand: "Well, I will." ”
Su Qiqi breathed a long sigh of relief, and rolled his eyes to look at Zhang Ru: "Xianggong, there will be nothing wrong!" ”
Zhang Ru gently held Su Qiqi's softness: "Don't worry, there is a minister, and it will be fine." ”
Xu Li sat on the Taishi chair with a sluggish expression, his eyes were blank, and the bones in his body seemed to be emptied.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Ru couldn't help but secretly think: "This old man is really powerful, if this is placed in the 21st century, he will be an Oscar winner." ”
And Su Qiqi, after seeing Xu Li's expression, that heart was as uncomfortable as if it had been smashed with a heavy hammer. She wanted to kill Xu Huaiyuan, purely to vent her anger, but when she saw Xu Li's appearance, she was a little soft-hearted. Xu Huaiyuan's death made Xu Li grow old in an instant, which was something she never expected.
"Brother, Huaiyuan Ji has his own natural appearance, don't worry, he will be fine." Zhang Ru walked over and comforted gently.
Xu Lixu chattered: "Huaiyuan, this kid has never left Jinling in his life, do you say that after he leaves, can he take care of himself outside?"
He has a broken leg, and there is no one around him to take care of him, and his temperament is the kind of character that cannot be provoked, what if he meets a bad person. ”
Zhang Ru said: "Brother, he won't encounter these problems you said." ”
Xu Li stood up like a cat with fried hair, staring at Zhang Ru with small eyes, and roared: "You say, did you secretly kill Huaiyuan!" ”
Zhang Ru made an innocent look, blushed and said: "Brother, I feel that Zhang Wenxuan is such a person in your heart!" I said that I would not pursue it again, so I would not secretly carry out those black hands. Huaiyuan felt guilty in his heart, he didn't want you and me to be embarrassed, so he left on his own, why did he get involved in someone killing him. ”
The most nervous thing was not the two people who were acting, but Su Qiqi, who was standing on the side and was crumbling.
Xu Li is somewhat sad about parting, otherwise he would not be able to fully interpret the image of a father who lost his son in old age. Zhang Ru is a person who has watched a lot of movies and TV series, he can do exaggerated acting skills, and he will naturally have non-exaggerated acting skills.
Su Qiqi was afraid and worried, she was afraid that Xu Li would see the clue from Zhang Ru's expression, that Zhang Ru's killing of Xu Huaiyuan would be revealed, and that it would bring unnecessary trouble to Zhang Ru.
After Zhang Ru's fierce words, Xu Li's strength collapsed on the Taishi's chair as if he had been drained, and muttered to himself: "I don't blame you, it's the old brother who is too anxious, it's the old brother who is too anxious." ”
Zhang Ru sighed: "Brother, Huaiyuan is no longer a child, he will take care of himself outside." I believe that Huaiyuan made such a decision after careful consideration. If a man doesn't go out to explore the world, it's hard to have any success. The flowers in the greenhouse will never be able to withstand the ravages of wind and rain. Brother, don't think too much, maybe in a few years, you will see a qualified heir to the Duke of Wei. ”
"Wen Xuan, you go out first! I want to be quiet. Xu Li waved his hand weakly and looked at the ground.
Zhang Ru turned around, breathed a long sigh of relief, and took Su Qiqi's hand and walked briskly outside.
Su Qiqi noticed that when he held his hand, his palm was covered with sweat, and his heart couldn't help but feel warm.
This little secret between Xu Li and Zhang Ru was completely exposed many years later, and Xu Huaiyuan, who had become a maritime merchant at that time, saw Su Qiqi again, and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Qiqi three times.
Of course, that's all for later.
After a few days, Xu Huaiyuan had no trace, and after Xu Li instructed his men and horses to do their best to investigate, the matter was temporarily put on hold.
Within a few days, Xu Li looked for Zhang Ru several times, and several times he was trying to see if Zhang Ru had killed Xu Huaiyuan.
Every time he saw Xu Li's figure, Su Qiqi would always tremble involuntarily.
In Datong, she has a father who loves her to shelter him from the wind and rain, but here, she only has Zhang Ru to rely on.
No matter how high this woman's kung fu is and how strong her skills are, she is just a woman who needs to be cared for after all, and she is just a woman who needs a warm embrace.
After several encounters, Xu Li's doubts were completely dispelled, and Zhang Ru was ready to say goodbye and leave.
Here several times was interrogated, when he left, Zhang Ru was already displeased, Xu Li was not good to keep, the two of them pretended to be polite, Zhang Ru took the three hundred elite horsemen of the Wei State Mansion to Fuzhou.
As soon as she came out of Jinling City, Su Qiqi was completely relieved, she finally didn't need to continue to face that serious old man.
As everyone knows, not long after the carriage left the Wei Mansion, the Wei Mansion, which was originally full of sadness, broke out into a burst of long-lasting laughter.
Even cronies and retainers like Xu Liang didn't know why Xu Li was laughing, and they wondered why the little prince was missing and the grandfather could still laugh.
But this is a secret between Zhang Ru and Xu Li, and they will not easily say it to the third person.
Fan Tong didn't stay in Jinling City, and he didn't know the truth of the facts, so he always felt that it was not a matter to continue to stay in the Wei Mansion, so he followed the team to Fuzhou with his injuries.
Xuanwu Lake in Jinling City, the blue waves are rippling by the lake, the weather is a little cold in winter, the cold wind blows, the woman in red sitting on the stone bench shiveres, but she has not moved her body for a long time.
The maid in a light yellow gauze dress on the side was so cold that her nose was clear and her little face was pale, and she said, "Miss, let's go!" It's strange cold here, don't freeze your body. ”
The woman in red suddenly looked back: "Xiaolian, do you say that in this world, there is an existence that is colder than my heart?" ”
The maid stomped her feet and said, "I don't know, I just know that if you don't go back, the maid will freeze to death here." ”
The woman in red smiled, stood up and said as she walked: "It's too cold in Jinling City, let's go to Fuzhou, where business also needs to be taken care of." If you like it, go to Fuzhou with me, and if you can't bear to be at home, just stay! I left enough money for your father and mother, and in the future, I will find someone who will hurt to marry, and live a peaceful and stable life. ”
The maid was crying: "Miss, you don't want Xiaolian anymore." ”
The woman in red smiled: "Where don't I want you, it's just that if you follow me, the future is uncertain." It's better to stay with my parents than to be a maid by my side. ”
"Xiaolian is not afraid, if it weren't for the young lady's rescue, Xiaolian's family wouldn't know when and when they could live a rich life." The woman in yellow said happily.
The woman in red shook her head helplessly: "If it weren't for your parents' rescue, I might have died, what is this bit of silver." If you really want to follow me, follow me! In the future, if you are willing, you will marry with me, and if you are not willing, I will find you a good family. ”
Xiaolian bowed her head shyly and said, "Miss, what are you talking about, Xiaolian is still young!" ”
The woman in red bowed slightly, stopped talking, faced the cold wind, and walked slowly towards the outside of Jinling City.
The two people arrived in Fuzhou one fast and one slowly, and arrived at Fuzhou, which had undergone earth-shaking changes.
In the past, in Fuzhou, the only building was the three-storey house of the post station, but now in Fuzhou, you can see three-story buildings everywhere, and even the inns on both sides of the street are basically three-story structures.
With the influx of a large number of businessmen, the local people of Fuzhou felt the tangible benefits, and the merchants had to live and eat, which to a large extent led to the development of the local economy.
Most of the people who are working in Fuzhou are not locals. Those locals who are lazy just sit at home and chat with the villagers every day to pass the time. Those old people who couldn't stay idle became the owners of handicraft workshops, and the daily output of cloth skyrocketed.
"Uncle, how did this Fuzhou City change so much?" Zhang Ru casually grabbed a gorgeously dressed old man and asked.
The old man looked Zhang Ru's clothes up and down, and said, "Stranger, you don't know why Fuzhou has undergone such changes, and why did you come to Fuzhou." ”
Zhang Ru smiled modestly: "Don't hide it from my father-in-law, the student is a scholar, and this time he is on a study tour." ”
The old man explained: "This is also thanks to Marquis Zhang, who was the one who facilitated the opening of the sea ban, so Fuzhou has undergone such a big change." ”
