There was a couch in the hut, but there was no banquet on the floor. Lu Ning had to sit down on the couch and wait. When the people outside went out and couldn't hear the voices clearly, she picked up the food piled on the wooden table next to it.
I looked at the slips and found that they were "Book of Han", and then put them back far away.
There was also something like a medicine grinder placed on the wooden table. I don't know what it was used for grinding. Lu Ning was a little bored staying alone. After looking at it for a while, she took the wooden mallet-like thing in her hand and played with it.
This state of doing nothing had a purpose, just waiting for Qin Liang to meet the officials. Lu Ning had a down-to-earth and lazy feeling, and felt very relaxed.
In fact, due to various reasons, Lu Ning has felt this way since she defected to Qin Liang two or three times. Because when she was in Lujiang County, Qin Liang was the local county guard; but now, even Henan Yin can easily help her
The high-ranking officials who arrested the enemy also came to Qin Liang to complain. Lu Ning knew that she had enough food and clothing by Qin Liang's side, and she didn't have to worry about her safety.
Not to mention Lu Ning herself, even the few Taoist priests who followed her have obviously become lazy.
At this time, there was a crisp sound of "ding-dong-dang" on the tiles, and it finally started to rain outside the house. The raindrops became denser and denser, and after almost a moment, the "plop-plop" sound of rain became one.
However, heavy rains at this time of year usually don't last long; after a while, the rain lightens up, and she can still go out. There were dark clouds early this morning, and when she came, she thought it might rain, so she brought an umbrella and put it on the
Beside the door of the department room.
After a while, Qin Liang suddenly walked into the hut. Lu Ning felt nervous and hurriedly stood up from the couch. She originally thought that Qin Liang would call her out after finishing her work. Unexpectedly, he came in by himself.
The cabin is a bit secluded and has no windows.
Qin Liang looked back at the hut and said, "It's a waste of time to let Fairy Girl stay here."
Lu Ning shook her head hurriedly and changed the subject: "Is General Wei's governor Shi a very big official dismissed? Henan Yin was dismissed just now, why didn't he accept the official position given by the general?"
Qin Liang thought for a moment and then said in a positive tone: "He will accept it."
There was a vague sense of confidence in his words. Lu Ning felt this aura, as if she smelled a unique scent of a man.
Moreover, Qin Liang is very handsome, with a tall and straight figure, and there is a vague strong shape on the silk chest. Lu Ning thought of the mistake she made in Qinling Mountains, and it was because of Qin Liang's appearance and temperament that she was a little tempted. In addition, Qin Liang said at the time
What, we will never see each other again, and no one knows, she was just confused for a while.
Lu Ning felt a little confused. She thought about how many things Qin Liang had done for her, and she had a vague idea of what Qin Liang wanted.
In fact, Lu Ning had noticed it since Qin Liang agreed to contact Fei Yi so that Fei Yi could try to exchange her husband Yuan Shizhen back. In her opinion, Qin Liang had never thought of agreeing to Fei Yi's win.
If Qin Liang saved her last time when he was fleeing in Luoyang, it was to repay Qin Chuanzhong for giving her food and drinks; then it would not make sense for him to treat her with all kinds of kindness.
Lu Ning blurted out: "Now that the general's position is high and powerful, he shouldn't be willing to go to Han again? If my late husband is still here, he will not be able to complete General Fei's major tasks."
As expected, Qin Liang burst into laughter, shook his head and looked at her.
Lu Ning then said: "Then I will have nothing to do if I stay in Luoyang. Once I see with my own eyes that my husband's great revenge has been avenged, I will return to the Han Kingdom."
Qin Liang's smile disappeared immediately and asked: "What will happen to Fairy Lady when she goes back?"
Lu Ning said: "I still have the Yuan family, and the Lu family's relatives are in Hanzhong. My late husband agreed to General Fei's matter. Whether it comes true or not, I will go back on my behalf and report back to General Fei, so that we can have a beginning and an end."
Qin Liang nodded slightly and remained silent.
Lu Ning sighed and said, "General Qin has done so many things for me, and I don't know how to repay him."
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized the way to repay her, and her expression immediately became unnatural. Qin Liang glanced at her, as if he had gotten some hint, and reached out to hold her hand. Seeing that Lu Ning did not respond, he seemed to be
Qin Chuanzhong began to push further.
Lu Ning suddenly remembered something and hurriedly pulled his hand out of the raw linen clothes, "I don't mean that, I... am still in mourning."
Qin Liang's voice said: "Xiangu really wants to leave, and I can't keep her here. But I'm afraid there's really no reason to see her again this time."
Lu Ning felt a little sad when she heard this, and her strength in holding Qin Liang's hand became smaller.
Lu Ning's voice was nice, but a bit rough, and the softer the voice became, the worse she was. She couldn't help but express her inner thoughts, "At that time, my husband was still alive, and no living person knew so much, but now I can't hide it from him.
"
Qin Liang said: "Even if you believe in ghosts, you can't hide the past things from ghosts."
Lu Ning felt that what he said seemed to make sense, but her heart was still in a mess.
Qin Liang's voice continued: "As long as you don't do that kind of thing, it's not considered disrespectful."
"Really?" Lu Ning asked casually. She also knew that this was self-deception, but she had indeed violated morality before and it had already happened. What was the use of feeling guilty again?
Lu Ning's face was very red. She turned her head away and did not dare to look at him. She happened to be looking at the pill that she had placed on the wooden table.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a voice came from outside: "General?"
Lu Ning realized that the door of the hut was not closed. She was startled. She hurriedly let go of Qin Liang and broke away from his arms. Then she quickly pulled up Sheng Mai to cover Bai Shengsheng's slender shoulders, and held her hands together.
skirt.
At this time, Qin Liang's voice said: "He's gone."
Lu Ning packed up her mourning clothes, but her heart still pounded. She was wearing such clothes. If someone saw what she had just done, it would be unimaginable! She blushed and said, "Let's go outside and talk.
"
After saying this, she couldn't help but walked out of the hut first, exhaling a long breath.
After waiting for a long time, Qin Liang walked out of the hut as if nothing had happened. Lu Ning stood at the door of the office, thinking about the scene just now, and was speechless for a while.
Qin Liang's voice said: "After the heavy rain, summer is coming soon."
Lu Ning said "hmm" and looked at the raindrops in the courtyard. Listening to the sound of rain on the roof, she felt that the rain had lightened up a lot. She wanted to say goodbye and go back to her residence, but then she remembered something and asked:
"A few years ago in the quiet room in Qinchuan, I remember General Qin said something about the Yellow Turban Army. Are those words that the General said sincere?"
Qin Liang nodded and said: "Of course, why should I tell lies in front of Fairy Girl?"
Lu Ning couldn't help but turned around and asked: "Now that the general has the power, is he thinking of changing some things?"
Qin Liang looked thoughtful, so Lu Ning took the opportunity to observe him. I don't know what happened, but Qin Liang was treating her like that just now, but now she couldn't see any lustful feeling.
He thought for a while before speaking: "I am not in charge. What's more, the spontaneous order in the world is far more complex than human design. Only wishes are useless, and many things will become unrecognizable if you do them."
Lu Ning thought about what he said and didn't quite understand it for a moment. She accidentally wanted to provoke him again: "I know that when the general went to sacrifice a village woman, he thought that the general was different from others."
Qin Liang glanced at her and said, "Let's set a smaller goal for the time being and achieve a prosperous age that surpasses the past. There is a way."
When Lu Ning heard this, she couldn't help but smile. Qin Liang was indeed very confident. When he started talking about achieving a prosperous world, did he mean to settle for the second best?
But Lu Ning is a Taoist priest, so what's the use of talking about these things? Perhaps as she said, she felt that Qin Liang was different from others, so she wanted to know what was different about him.
She took another look at the scenery in the courtyard, reached out and picked up the umbrella and curtain beside the door, bowed and said: "The rain has become lighter, I take leave."
Qin Liang returned the courtesy and said, "If Fairy Lady wants to see me at General Wei's mansion, she can come with Wu Xin at any time." After saying that, he called the guards on the eaves to the east and took Lu Ning out.
The courtyard where Lu Ning lives is just southeast of General Wei's Mansion. She walked here and can only walk back.
...After sending Lu Ning away, Qin Liang stood at the door of the office and watched the rain for a while, then returned to the mansion and went to the warehouse next to the hall where the documents were kept to look for something.
The first time he came to this place, he was led by his cousin Linghu Yu. The warehouse was very large and contained various documents and books left by Cao Shuang, some of which were wrapped in cloth bags and well preserved.
From a wooden shelf, Qin Liang found a large map painted on cloth. He also found "Confucius' Family Sayings" annotated by Wang Su, and took two volumes.
After returning to the hall, Qin Liang unfolded the cloth and looked at the map. Like the maps he found before participating in Cao Shuang's campaign to conquer Shu, this map covering the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu was very simple and tested his imagination.
However, he had personally been to Guanzhong and the Tangluo Road, and he was also familiar with the Wei territory in Yangzhou and Xuzhou. The annotation on the map was just a reminder.
Thinking of the Shu Road in the Qinling Mountains, Qin Liang still has some shadows in his heart. It is really difficult to leave. Think about how Lu Ning can take the Shu Road and travel between Wei and Shu. He can even leave the Shu Road and find "quietness" in the mountains.
"Room", Qin Liang couldn't help but admire her. Many people's experiences were not easy.
However, the defeat of Wu required the construction of a large number of warships, which took at least two or three years, because after the wood for shipbuilding was cut and collected, it needed to be dried in the shade before building the ship. Qin Liang also learned about the process from Ma Jun.
After he slowly presides over the construction of warships and trains the navy, maybe Wang Ling will come to pick peaches? With Wei's national power, if it can roughly integrate the internal affairs and use the whole country to conquer a country, it will really be possible to make a big impact.
The hope of a miracle. Qin Liang had this feeling when Cao Shuang conquered Shu.
Qin Liang thought for a while and then turned his attention to the surroundings of Shu.
Although Shu has a small population, it still poses a constant threat to Wei. As long as it can find a way to destroy a country, its prestige cannot be matched by birth. The Wang family, which has a way out, may also adjust its expectations. This is indeed a shortcut!
But what is the Wang family's plan? Qin Liang did not dare to act rashly for a while.
