Chapter 605 Liu Liniang's Secret
As he spoke, Liu Yu led the way to the open space between the halls near the back door of the palace. On the huge open space, there was a dark figure standing in the middle. There seemed to be many strange things on the table in front of him. Liu Yu knew it was the old charlatan Wu You at a glance.
Wu Shuo stood aside from a distance, covering his ears and looking at him, as if waiting for the fun.
And further afield, a team of guards watched from a distance, and their location was a water tank filled with water to extinguish the fire.
Before Liu Yu could approach, Wu You suddenly ran away from the table, yelling while running. When he turned around, he saw that Liu Yu had arrived. While waving to Liu Yu, the table behind him exploded with a "boom!" and all kinds of wood chips flew everywhere, fire was shining, but there was not too much ash, as magical as smokeless gunpowder.
After the explosion ended, Wu You stood aside to rest, while the guards used wooden basins to lift water to extinguish the remaining Mars. It can be seen that this set was practiced, which means that it is not the first time Wu You are fiddling with these here, and even the guards are ready.
"Master Wu, what are you doing?" Liu Yu walked forward, angry and his tone was a little unkind, "You are using the forbidden area of the palace to make trouble for you? What if you hurt someone?"
Wu You jumped and said indifferently: "Healthy hurts himself. What does it matter if he is in this empty space?"
If Wu You hadn't been older, Liu Yu really wanted to slap this old charlatan, although the first fire had nothing to do with him, and it was done by Xiao Shuo with a magnifying glass, but the second fire was actually caused by the old charlatan's chemistry research. In the past, Liu Yu heard that ancient charlatans were all a group of alchemists. Alchemists were also a group of illegitimate chemistry researchers. Liu Yu finally saw it today. Wu You had been a charlatan all his life, and his strange experiments were also studied for the rest of his life.
Learn until you get old, make trouble until you get old.
"Okay. You are not allowed to conduct such research in the palace in the future. If you want to study the weapons station, you can move out first and don't stay in the palace." Liu Yu said, "I will give you permission to enter and exit the palace, and it will be more convenient for you to come in and do things in the future."
Wu You laughed and said, "In the past, you just drove the little one out of the palace. The little one would never leave. But today you want to send the little one away, but you can't ask for it."
"What does it mean?" Liu Yu asked with a frown.
"It's not my little girl, this little girl, who is wandering around the palace all day long, and she yells at me all the time. It seems that she should take her to a place with a lot of people outside to settle down, so as not to feel too depressed by herself."
Liu Yu didn't expect that this old charlatan still loved her great-granddaughter so much. He stuttered in the palace on weekdays, but Wu You always ignored his research. Now Wu You actually thought about Wu Shuo and said he wanted to move out of the palace.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Liu Yu asked.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Come and talk to you." Wu You said, and the sparks over there were also extinguished. Wu You said a few words to the guards and asked the guards to go back first. He continued while taking Liu Yu to his new residence, "By the way, let's see the latest achievements of the little old man. Have you seen the scene just now?"
"I've seen it, why? Is it rare?"
Wu You said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you notice that the explosion is much more powerful? This was developed by the little old man's painstakingly. The little old man still thought, you must be interested."
Liu Yu sighed: "Your research is at most only a primary stage research. Whether it can come in handy is not my final say. You have to go to the Weapons Research Institute to ask the people there. Now I will never ask about these things. In the future, we will open up new venues for you to show your strengths."
Wu You smiled and pointed at Liu Yu and said, "You guy is still in love, just like the old man's wishes."
Liu Yu said: "Looking back, there are a group of Westerners who will come here with some advanced technology. You can show your strengths, exchange experiences with them, learn their fun, and improve them at the same time."
Wu You said in confusion: "Western ghost?"
"Don't look down on Westerners. They still have fun things. I'm afraid you'll be overwhelmed by it." Liu Yu thought for a while, and there wasn't much to say. It was his turn to ask the most important question, "Do you know that person returned to Chang'an City?"
"Which?" Wu You frowned.
"I asked you knowingly, don't say that the woman who almost became your daughter-in-law will not come to see you when she returned to Chang'an City."
Wu Youshu said in a breath: "When you talk about whom, she has never left Chang'an City, right? We have seen each other more times in the past six months."
Originally, Liu Yu thought that Master Wuding must have been making her conspiracy outside, but she did not expect that she would dare to hide under her nose. Liu Yu thought to himself that what she wanted was nothing more than to rescue Su Min as soon as possible.
"Then where is she now?"
Wu You shook his head and said, "How can you know that the little old man knows? Every time it is the place she agreed upon. The little old man is not interested in where she lives. Talk to her about the technique of geomancer and divination. Don't be a little old man who has any conspiracy with her."
Liu Yu felt annoyed. If Wu You had not been on his front line and had helped him in the previous two usurpations, Liu Yu would have taken the old man down to interrogate! But as Wu You's characteristics, he was an old charlatan who was in the political vortex but did not care about the politics around him. All the people in power wanted to win him over, but he was addicted to such a person who was in his own small world.
A person who is transformed from the outside.
Even Liu Yu felt a little uneasy when he was calculating with a person who was a foreigner.
Liu Yu chatted with Wu You and then arrived at Wu You's temporary residence. Because Wu You burned his astronomy center, his residences with Wu Shuo are now very simple, with a strange burning smell everywhere. From this smell, Liu Yu can tell that this old charlatan has done his experimental research in this new residence. The two walked in front, while the guard and Wu Shuo followed behind. When Liu Yu and Wu You entered the house, Wu Shuo also followed. After a long time, he took advantage of the time when Liu Yu and Wu You chatted. Wu Shuo didn't stutter and asked, "Hey, Qi'er, when will he be back?"
"Who are you asking?" Liu Yu sat on the chair and looked at Wu Shuo.
"I, I...I'll ask you."
Liu Yu smiled and wondered why Wu Shuo didn't stutter before. Who knew that Wu Shuo's stuttering problem had happened again after this question.
Wu You explained: "The emperor is not in the palace recently, and no one is talking to Xiao Ya, and he always talks to him. Recently, the old man discovered that Xiao Ya was silent about what she had been silent in her heart for a long time, and she would not stop saying it."
"It's good that there's progress. Maybe you can get rid of this problem in the future." Liu Yu smiled, "I'll tell you, Xiao stutter, Qi'er will return to the palace in a few days, but she's tired from the journey, so don't bother her all the time."
When he heard that Qi'er would return to Chang'an City in a few days, Wu Shuo seemed very happy. He opened his mouth and smiled, and his smile was considered "spreading spring". Liu Yu suddenly felt that Wu You was right. He was lonely in the palace alone. The palace maids would definitely not dare to talk to her, and the female official would not pay attention to her. She wandered around the palace like a lonely ghost. With Qi'er getting married, Wu Shuo spent less time with his little playmates. It would be better to let her leave the palace and look for her own sky in the lively environment outside.
"I heard that Xiao Nu is with you?" Liu Yu was thinking about Wu Shuo when Wu You suddenly asked.
"Little slave?" Liu Yu frowned. Is there such a person?
"It's her apprentice, the one who often comes to see you with her." Wu You described it for a moment, and Liu Yu realized that the "little slave" in Wu You's mouth was actually Liu Liniang.
"When Xiao Nu was a little girl, she had seen her. At that time, she was different from ordinary children. She spoke and did things very well. She was like a little adult, and she never spoke when she saw strangers. I thought Xiao Nu would be like her master and never get married for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect to follow you. It was really unexpected."
Liu Yu and Liu Liniang have been together for a while. This is the first time he learned about Liu Liniang's "boudoir name". Thinking about Xiao Nu's name, it should have been transformed from Liu Liniang's Miao family surname. Liu Liniang's surname is Nong, Xiao Nong, and Xiao Nong is Xiao Nu. It's interesting to think about it.
"Why are you laughing?" Wu You looked at Liu Yu curiously.
"It's okay, what else do you know?" Liu Yu suddenly remembered something, "Master Wuding, does she have an apprentice? She should be younger than... the little slave."
Wu You thought for a while and said, "There should be something like this. She seemed to have mentioned two apprentices before, but the old man had only seen the little slave and never saw the other one. What should have happened. She never mentioned this apprentice again in the future."
Liu Yu felt suspicious. When he went to Mingzhou, he had seen the girl who spoke very unscrupulously. The one who was injured by him should not be a native of the Central Plains. If that girl was Liu Li's junior sister, wouldn't the old woman who cured him be Master Wuding? This explanation is obviously not valid.
If the old woman was pretended by Liu Li Niang's junior sister, the situation would be different. Liu Yu had seen Liu Li Niang's disguise skills. If Liu Li Niang knew how to do it, Liu Li Niang's junior sister should also do it. That is to say, the old lady who was old at the time was a younger girl than Liu Li Niang, and she was just pretending to be an old face.
Liu Yu still remembered that Liu Liniang seemed to want to track down something that was taken away by the old woman, and that thing might have been master Liu Liniang, and it was stolen by junior sister Liu Liniang, which led to the sisters turning against each other and the master and apprentice turning against each other. Liu Yu used to think that it might be a treasure, but now it seems that Master Wuding helped the King of Huai to plan things, and Huai was rich and there was no shortage of money to plan the world. Then that mysterious thing is probably not a valuable thing.
What exactly will it be?
Liu Yu knew that when she asked Liu Liniang, she might not be able to say that after all, that was related to her and her master's secret. But if she didn't ask, she would definitely not get an answer. It depends on whether Liu Liniang is in his heart now, and she just wants to defect to him and continue to do her own business.
