Chapter 78 The Mysterious Bronze Mirror
Unlike the Luo Mansion in Licheng, the Luo Mansion in Cangyan City is located in a wealthy alley not far from the Cangyan Mansion.
On weekdays, there are few pedestrians in this wealthy alley. Apart from the carriages of wealthy families that come in and out from time to time, civilian vendors dare not enter easily, for fear that a noble person who accidentally angers them will be in trouble.
Today's Fugui Lane is very lively. Teams of officers and soldiers are entering and leaving, and the mansions of nobles of the officials are smashed open. The men who are usually tall are tied up and dragged, and are in a mess. Behind them, the women and subordinates are panicked and crying.
The civilians who were watching from afar were very excited. They thought of the convoy of bloody cavalry guards, the three muffled thunders from the government office, and the head that was cut off from Shuangjing Town, and the sky in Cangyan City was much clearer.
Just when everyone was watching the fun and was not doing anything, the convoy guarded by the blood cavalry appeared on the corner of the street, so the officers, soldiers and officials, including those tied with their hands and feet, had to kneel down and give in.
The convoy stopped in front of a house deep in Fugui Lane. After a while, everyone in the convoy, including Blood Rider, moved into the yard, and everything in the streets became vivid again. However, no matter the originally vicious officers and soldiers or the women screaming and making trouble, they couldn't help but lower their voices, as if they were afraid of disturbing someone in the yard.
The Luo Mansion is not new, but it is very clean. The furnishings in the pavilions and towers are very similar to those in the Luo Mansion in Licheng. They are both simple styles that make people feel peaceful at first glance.
When Luochuan walks in it, his mood is different from the time he was walking in the Luo Mansion in Licheng.
At that time, the Luo Mansion was just a passerby mentality. In addition, the city and countless pairs of eyes staring at him in the city made him unable to sleep even if he lay on the bed of the Luo Mansion. Now it was very different. He walked to the garden pond behind the courtyard, sat down on a large chair in a pavilion, and watched the koi in the pond swim back and forth, and was stunned for a while.
"Siqi, do you like this family?" Luo Chuan asked while staring at the Chizi.
Siqi, who was always following him, looked around and nodded, "But the house is too big, and we all live in space."
"Have you settled down with Senior Wan Song and Senior Wuxi?" Luo Chuan asked again.
"Butler Qian said that he had prepared a quiet side courtyard for the two seniors, very close to our main courtyard," Siqi looked at the young woman beside him and said, "The fairy Cangyan Mountain is in the side courtyard on the other side, and they all leave the courtyard and go to the garden to have a good place to live."
"No need, just find me a room in the main courtyard where you are," the female said coldly.
Luo Chuan finally withdrew his gaze and looked back at the girl, "Sister Fairy, I have always wanted to ask, before you went down the mountain, the head of the Cangyan Sword Sect told me to keep a close eye on me? Could it be..." He looked at the female expression and continued, "Are you afraid that I would do anything wrong under the banner of the Cangyan Sword Sect?"
The female Taoist shook her head and spoke bluntly, "Master only said, let me see you for him."
Luo Chuan said in surprise, "Just take a look?"
The female Taoist glanced at him, "Just look."
Luo Chuan smiled and stopped asking more questions. He looked at the family of three who was brought by Luo Changgong and the old coachman not far away. It was the family who blocked the road and sent him a mirror when he first entered the city gate.
The middle-aged couple followed Luo Changgong carefully, lowered their heads and bent down. They were unable to walk on the flat stone road and had to support each other. The girl wearing a green cotton jacket following them was slightly better. From time to time, they dared to look up at the scenery in the mansion, but their hands were holding the corners of their clothes tightly, and they were obviously very nervous.
"Young Master, bring the three of you here," Luo Changgong bowed and stood on the side of the pavilion.
Luo Chuan smiled and waved at the three of them, "Don't be nervous, come, sit and talk."
"The villain dares not, the villain dares not," the middle-aged man looked up at Luo Chuan and lowered his head quickly, how dare he sit down.
Luo Chuan didn't make things difficult for them. He had seen how strict the level of this world was. Too close to him would probably make the other party even more uneasy. He took the bronze mirror from the old coachman and looked at it while asking the girl in the green jacket, "What's your name?"
"If you are going to the young master, the villain's name is Nannan." The girl looked up and found that the beautiful young master on the opposite side had not looked at her, so she was not so nervous. She took the opportunity to look at the faces of the two women standing behind him, feeling that one was full of heroic spirit and the other was full of fairy spirit, both like a figure walking down on the painting, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Nannan, you said an old man asked you to give me this bronze mirror. Can you tell me the process in detail?" Luo Chuan still lowered his head to study the mirror.
The girl nodded, "About the day before yesterday, an old man brought his grandson to my wine shop. The old man ordered a pot of the cheapest rice wine and ordered the lightest noodles for his grandson." She glanced at Luo Chuan and found that he had no reaction. After she seemed to be more courageous and louder, "When I brought the rice wine and noodles, I saw that the old man had a conflict with a noble man wearing expensive clothes. The noble man left in anger. I advised the old man to finish eating and drinking quickly and leave the city earlier. If the noble man called for someone to come back, it would be difficult for the old man and his grandson to have a hard time..."
Siqi liked the girl in front of her, so she bent her mouth, and the female path on the other side looked at the lake.
Luo Chuan was not impatient at all, just nodded and asked, "What about?"
"Then the old man just didn't leave, and his little grandson didn't eat that noodles. I thought he probably despised the side of silence. I was like this when I was a child, so I went back and secretly..." The girl carefully glanced at her parents who had always lowered her head, and gestured to Luo Chuan, who was looking at her, and added some ingredients to the bowl. "Then his little grandson ate some noodles. I was going back to the shop to help my mother. When the old man left and checked the bill, he called me over, took out the mirror and some money and left on the table."
"Didn't you tell me to leave it? I left without saying anything?" Luo Chuan asked.
"Yes, I've spoken. He said that I can use this mirror myself or hand it over to the young master in the Red Armored Cavalry Convoy," the girl looked at Luo Chuan, her big eyes clearly black and white.
Luo Chuan smiled and said, "Then why don't you keep it for yourself? This mirror is worth a lot of money."
The girl opened her mouth and hesitated, "The old man has not lost my wine money. I can't ask for someone else's mirror... And I see that his family should be quite poor. Not only can I drink the cheapest rice wine, but I can't even order a bowl of braised noodles for my grandson. This mirror is not cheap at first glance, and it must be an important thing for him. Since he wants to hand over the mirror to the young master but cannot deliver it in person, maybe he can't continue to stay in the city after using all the money on his body, he has to ask me for help. Although I..." She looked up at Luo Changgong, who was still standing in a corner of the pavilion, and murmured, "Although I'm a little scared, I have to hand the mirror to the young master..."
Luo Chuan nodded, "Since you finally handed me this mirror, I will give you some things," he gently placed the bronze mirror on the table and looked up and asked the girl, "What do you want?"
