Chapter 98: Thinking about each other
Licheng, the sound of silk and bamboo came from the Tingyu Tower in the prefect's harem.
On the third floor, a mother and son sat opposite the table.
The young man's face was still a little pale, his lips were slightly blood-colored, and his body, wearing a thick fox fur, curled up slightly, and supported his head with one hand on the side of the table to calm down.
The woman in red faced the lake and gently blew the flute. The sound was gentle and soft, making people feel comfortable to hibernate.
The young man closed his eyes, but murmured in his mouth, "Mother..."
The woman in red interrupted the flute voice and looked at her son gently, "Hmm?"
"You have many things...hide them from me..." The young man said softly, but he was not a question.
The woman in red smiled after a while, "Who can have no secrets in this world?" She reached out and stroked the young man's hair, "You just need to know that your mother will not harm you."
The young man did not respond to his mother's words, but murmured about something else, "In recent days, the child has heard a lot of things. Someone came to tell me that the brother who had only met once, the brother who should live a wealthy life in Cangyan City, possessed the sword of the princes. At first, I was very angry and thought why did he dare to take the sword of the princes? But later, when two palace servants talked about his father's physical discomfort and other things, I felt that everything seemed not that simple. It was about to happen to this city...."
The woman in red gently stroked the young man's hand and paused slightly, then slowly retracted it, "Yes, winter is coming, it's time for something to happen..."
"Mother..." The young man opened his eyes and looked at the woman in red with a little tiredness and a little panic. "The child went to inquire some, and many court officials were secretly talking about it... I think this is not good. What should the father do to make those damn dogs always press on his mouth. He should..."
"Okay," the woman in red shouted slightly, "Your father naturally has his plans. Where is your turn to teach him how to do things?"
The young man turned his head to the direction of the lake with some dissatisfaction, "The child is almost well. I want to go to the city garrison army to do something that supervisors should do."
The woman in red thought for a while and said, "Okay, go take my carriage, don't ride a horse."
The young man stood up and wanted to refuse. When he turned around and saw the expression of the woman in red, he swallowed the originally cold and hard words, just nodded and turned around and went downstairs.
The woman in red watched the carriage gradually fade away, and the gentle smile on her face disappeared completely. She stood up with a frosty face and whispered to the man in black, "What's wrong with Cang Yan?!"
The man in black met the woman in red, which seemed to be about to spit out fire, and lowered his head with a dodge, "When a person in a critical position died, the speed of sending information was slowed down. After passing that position, the upstream and downstream personnel finally reconnected..."
"What's wrong with that evil seed?" The woman in red stepped forward and reached out and grabbed the man in black's arm, shaking it twice.
The man in black looked up at the woman in red and said, "That evil species has dealt with Cang Yan Sanmao and the powerful children in the Sansi Yamen, which is very popular with the people." He sighed again, and saw the woman in red looking angry and lowered his head, "He also got the support of... Cang Yan Sword Sect..."
"What?!" The woman in red could hardly suppress her voice and screamed. She resisted the urge to throw something and walked to the window and gently closed the window. Then she slowly sat back on her seat and squeezed out a sound from her teeth. "The three maggots should have been killed by Yun'er personally issued the prefect order, which is fine... Is Cangyan Sword Sect crazy? It actually supports a evil seed sent to Cangyan?!"
The man in black lowered his head and said nothing. The woman in red held the teacup with her hand trembling. "If Cangyan Sword Sect supports that evil seed, then even if Yun'er becomes the prefect, she cannot easily touch him. No, what's wrong here..." She bent the index finger of her other hand and bit it in her mouth. In an instant, blood was flowing down her lips, but she seemed to have not realized it. "Cangyan Sword Sect and Lijun Prefect's Mansion have always respected each other. It is impossible to do such a thing. It must be Luo Tianen who did something. What did he do?! He went to ask Cangyan Sword Sect to protect him for the evil seed for that woman? Why, why?!"
She seemed to cry and laugh, her face was slightly distorted, "You gave her the title and let her son be the eldest son, but I didn't object. Now that her son is back, you let him go to Cangyan, I didn't stop me. I want you to die peacefully, but why are you just unwilling to...?!"
"Fanxing, although Cangyan Sword Sect is powerful, it is impossible to fight against the will of Lijun and Yongchang County at the same time. Wait until..." The man in black was interrupted by the woman in red before he finished speaking.
"You can't wait, you don't understand. If you wait, you will never wait for the best," the woman in red turned her head and looked at the man in black. Her fair face and red lips looked particularly eye-catching. "Qi Shui, the people who sent to the Western Yi before... are dead too..."
The man in black hesitated for a moment and nodded, "The person sent by Lord Prefect to Cangyan is also dead."
"It's all waste," the woman in red smiled, "The Western Yi, only the Western Yi. Since the Cangyan Sword Sect wants to get involved in this matter, let the Western Yi become their opponent!" She murmured to herself, "I want to use Cangyan to bury the Cangyan Sword Sect and that evil seed... Let Jiuzhu go, go upstream from the Cangjiang River, although it is dangerous, with his strength, he should be able to find someone who can make the decision. Tell them that Yun'er becomes the prefect of Lijun, when Cangyan belongs to the Western Yi!!"
"No!" The man in black was shocked, "If Jiuzhu hadn't been by Yun'er's side last time, his life would not be saved. If you asked Jiuzhu to go to the Western Yi, what should I do if Yun'er's safety? Luo Tianen was about to be unable to hold on. Now even if the gods in the sky came, they could not save his life. Yun'er's safety is the most important thing at the moment!"
"Of course I know that Yun'er's safety is the most important thing, but do you think that a nine-pearl can make Yun'er absolutely safe?" said the woman in red. "When Yun'er misses her face on the garrison, let him stay with Luo Tianen and not leave for a moment. It is also the last thing to fulfill her filial piety. At this time, where can she be safer than Luo Tianen's side? Don't forget that there is a real shadow around him..."
The man in black was speechless, and after a while he sighed again, "Sir, the Prefect... I don't want you to do this..."
The woman in red suddenly laughed loudly, staring at the man in black with beautiful eyes, and reached out to hold his hand, "Don't I know what my father wants me to do? He hopes that everyone in the world can obey his instructions...live like him having a dog!"
The man in black frowned slightly, but in the end he said nothing.
The woman in red sneered and continued, "That evil seed was killed in Cangyan, and drove out the children of powerful people and offended all the civil and military powers in the court. Then we have something to do during this period, so that these people who are resentful to the evil seed stand on our ship! Now Luo Tianen is about to die, and all kinds of speculations are spreading rapidly among the ministers. They also need a reassurance. We will give them this reassurance..."
The man in black nodded, "Director...will you send the news back?"
"Of course it's passed on," the woman in red smiled, "tell him that Luo Tianen intends to pass the position of prefect to that evil seed, to see if he will stop me from sending people to the Western Barbarians...!!!"
