MTL - Raising Wolves-v2 Chapter 46

After the new emperor ascended the throne, he granted amnesty to the world and lifted the curfew. Lin'an Mansion was the leading prosperous place in Daqi, and the night market was particularly lively, with bright lights and harmony.

Lu Qing, who was wearing a mask, walked in the crowd and was less conspicuous.

Every night, Duan Lingguang would board the boat on the lakeside, take a tour on the boat, get drunk all night, and only get off the boat and go home the next morning—no need for Chen Xiaodao to inquire about it, anyone who catches a passerby will know.

The night was not as hot as the day, and the breeze was blowing by the lake. Lu Qing walked all the way, and Quan should be relieved.

When Ning Juan was by his side, he could not wait to carry him up and walk. Even if Ning Juan was not by his side, there were always a few secret guards behind him, making it difficult for him to move.

Although it is for his safety, it is very uncomfortable to be stared at anytime, anywhere.

It's rare to be alone.

At this time, when the lanterns were just on, the painting boats were scattered. The lakeside was particularly lively, the lights were shining brightly, there was one scenery on the lake, and another scenery in the lake.

Most of the painting boats have not yet landed. Duan Lingguang is a famous person by the lake. When he comes, the whole street will be lively, and Lu Qing is not worried that he will miss it.

Walking here from the palace, he was a little out of breath, and stopped by the willow tree, tilted his head and saw an old woman selling flowers not far away.

It is a slim pink lotus with dew on it, as if it had just been picked.

Lu Qing calmed down, walked over, took out a few copper plates from his sleeves and handed them over: "Mother-in-law, buy a lotus flower."

The old woman smiled and handed him the flower. Seeing that he was thin, she grabbed a large handful of fresh water chestnuts and handed it to him in a lotus leaf.

Lu Qing thanked him with a smile, and the old woman mumbled a few words of Lin'an.

He tilted his head and could only understand a few words.

But there was nothing to do, and it didn't prevent him from chatting: "Mother-in-law, is Lin'an Mansion so lively every night?"

The old woman didn't quite understand what he said, and said a few more words.

The two of them chatted together, while Lu Qing twisted the lotus petals and fell into contemplation.

A laughter suddenly came from nearby: "It's not so lively every night, it's just the Chinese Valentine's Day, and everyone hasn't had enough fun."

Lu Qing suddenly realized, Qixi Festival.

After a few calculations, he was still lying in a coma in the official office of Ji'an Mansion on the Qixi Festival. He woke up and cultivated for a few days.

But even if he didn't get sick, given Jiang You's situation, it was impossible for anyone to be in the mood to celebrate this festival.

He turned his head and looked at the person who spoke: "Thank you, Xiongtai, for clarifying the confusion."

The other party stood under the willow tree, with a fan in his hand, and looked at him up and down: "You're welcome, I see that my friend seems to be coming from the capital and is quite confused about the Lin'an Mansion. It just so happens that I am also curious about the capital, why not Go boating on the lake together and chat?"

Lu Qing squinted his eyes, and after a while, smiled slightly: "Okay."

The person standing under the willow tree divided the flowers and brushed the willows, stepped out of the shadows, and fluttered the fan in his hand, quite suave: "My boat has come, please."

While talking, a painting boat really stopped by the shore.

Lu Qing supported the mask on his face, hugged the lotus flower and a bag of water chestnuts, and followed calmly.

The man got on the boat neatly and turned around to help Lu Qingze.

Lu Qing ducked back and said in a low voice, "Thank you, I can go by myself."

The other shrugged and didn't care.

After Lu Qing got on the painting boat and sat down, the painting boat slowly rowed towards the center of the lake.

There are also many cruise ships floating nearby, large and small, various styles, exquisite objects such as carvings.

There were no beauties on the boat, just a few servants, who bent over to pour wine for the two of them, and then retreated to the stern of the boat obediently.

Lu Qing's back was as straight as loose, and he sat firmly, but his mind was temporarily refrained.

Last time we had a banquet, the last entertainment activity was a lake tour. This time, those local officials wouldn't want to invite Ning Juan to tour the lake, right?

There are so many boats tonight, and Li Xun and the others should not dare.

I can't imagine what would happen if I ran into Ning Guoguo here.

Nothing should happen, right?

He just avoided the sight of the dark guard and walked out alone, and the little brat would at most lose his temper with him.

Lu Qing thought casually, Yubai turned the white jade wine glass with his fingertips, and did not drink.

The man across from him saw him not moving, and suddenly realized: "Is Xiongtai not good at drinking? I was negligent, and I asked someone to change it to tea."

"No need." Lu Qing retracted his gaze and looked outside, "You don't need to lose interest because of me, boating on the lake, beautiful scenery and delicious wine."

The young man was not polite, he drank two cups for himself, and then said, "Since I am not good at hospitality, please ask your Excellency first, and I will answer. I will definitely know everything and say everything."

Lu Qing smiled but not smiled: "Really?"

"really."

"Well," Lu Qing wrote lightly, "Then what do you think about the current situation in Daqi?"

Opening your mouth is the general trend of the world, and the person opposite can't help laughing: "Ordinary people, don't arbitrarily discuss political affairs, my friend, you are very bold."

"It's not at the feet of the emperor anyway." The painting boat swayed slightly on the water, but Lu Qing stayed still, the curvature of the corners of his lips did not change, "What about the discussion."

"That's right." The other party nodded with a deep sense of reason, "Then I'll just say it straight, I think it's sloppy."

"..." Lu Qingze, "It sounds like your guts are fatter than mine."

"Isn't that what you told me to say?"

Lu Qing thought to himself, he didn't ask you to say so directly.

"The former emperor was obsessed with practice and ignored the government. He had been in power for more than 20 years, and he had accumulated a lot of abuses, which led to the rule of authority, corrupt officials rampant, local officials were obsessed with yin and yin, and the eunuchs and the cabinet in the court were lively. After the victory of the cabinet, And headed by the cabinet's chief and auxiliary, a new party was formed." The other party did not shy away, shaking his wine cup, chatting and laughing freely, "I am far away in Lin'an, and I have heard a lot of things from the capital. Arrogant, I'm afraid that the first assistant of the guard didn't expect it, he couldn't control it, and the gu was eventually backfired... Oh, I accidentally said so much, can this be said?"

Lu Qing listened quietly and nodded: "There are no ears on the wall, so of course."

"Then is there anything else you want to ask?"

Lu Qing leaned forward slightly, his warm and quiet eyes staring at the face of the person opposite him without blinking: "Your Excellency has already expressed your views on the late emperor, the imperial court and the First Assistant Wei, why don't you be bolder and say yes? Your Majesty's opinion today?"

This time, the young man who had been talking for a long time calmed down, tapped his fingertips on the edge of the wine cup, and then said, "I heard about Jiangyou, but it was unexpected. I think His Majesty the Emperor took the risk and came to Jiangyou in person for three reasons, one was to seize the handle of the first assistant of Wei, the other was to save the victims from the disaster, and the third was to gain fame. I didn't expect His Majesty to be like this people."

"Oh?" Lu Qing raised his eyebrows, "What did you think Your Majesty was like?"

The other party was quiet for a while, and spit out a few words: "Murderous and cruel, cold-blooded and ruthless, unscrupulous."

The wind on the lake was cool, but Lu Qing didn't notice it, his back tightened at some point, staring at him without saying a word.

The young man drank another glass of wine calmly: "You have already asked me three questions. To be fair, it is time for me to ask you."

Lu Qing anticipated what he wanted to ask, and his tone was light: "Please say it."

"Master Lu, aren't you from Lin'an?" The other party laughed, "Why can't you understand Lin'an?"

Lu Qingze didn't blink: "I've been away for many years, and I'm a little dazed when I hear the accent. It's Duan, you reveal my identity in one sentence, as if you've been thinking about it for a long time, sending someone to stare at me, and it looks even more suspicious. "

Duan Lingguang sighed: "It's been a long time. Ever since I heard you're still alive, I've been wondering if you'll come. After all, it might be a coincidence that the corpse is revived?"

It was straight to the point.

Lu Qing glanced at him, his fingertips didn't even tremble, he peeled off a water chestnut, without revealing any strange color.

Seeing that he was so peaceful, there was not even a trace of emotional ups and downs. Duan Lingguang, who was so excited that he wanted to jump into the lake for three laps, held back for a while, but he still couldn't hold back and slapped the table: "Fellow? Is it a fellow? It's not you. Come to me specifically to ask the little emperor what to do, stop pretending, I guessed it!"

Lu Qing put a water chestnut in his mouth and said calmly, "Well."

Duan Lingguang was so excited that he approached him: "I've been here for seven or eight years, how about you?"

Lu Qingze: "A little later than you."

"..." Duan Lingguang patted the table, "Why are you so calm? Aren't you excited!"

Lu Qing measured his own pulse and felt that his heartbeat should not be at 80. He thought for a while: "Is it okay?"

Just now, when he saw Duan Lingguang who took the initiative to fight on the shore, he had some doubts. When he sat down and listened to his remarks, he vaguely guessed it, and his heart really didn't have much ups and downs.

Lu Qingze's calmness was very contagious, Duan Lingguang's mood quickly cooled down, he sat back silently and peeled the water chestnut together, saying in his mouth: "My original body was framed by my stepmother and pushed into the water to drown, I died suddenly after working overtime, and I opened my eyes and appeared here. Fortunately, I have read the original text and learned a little about the plot..."

Lu Qing listened to him and put a crisp and sweet water chestnut in his mouth: "Can I ask you another question?"

"Talk about it, just say it."

"Since you treat His Majesty that way," Lu Qing stared into his eyes, "Are you still going to follow the original plot?"

Duan Lingguang shook his head decisively: "No."

Duan Lingguang also threw a water chestnut into his mouth, right when he served a drink, shook his finger: "I was a social animal in my last life, and a salted fish in this life. Whoever wants to rebel will go. The protagonist of the original book can't beat your little emperor, let alone me. Now, wouldn’t it be good to stay in Lin’an? The family has a mansion and is rich, so they don’t have to worry about food and drink, and if they’re too busy, they can fight at home, adjust their life, and nourish themselves.”

Seeing his sincere expression, he was afraid to avoid the original development route. Lu Qing confirmed that what he said was the truth, and the corners of his mouth curved, revealing the first sincere smile, and his raised hand remained silent. put it down.

Ning Juan was always worried that Lu Qing would be in danger. Before going to Jiangnan, he ordered someone to transform a flying arrow in his sleeve.

It is a very ingenious gadget, buckled on the wrist, almost imperceptible weight, there are three poisoned sleeve arrows inside, gently press the mechanism, the poisonous arrows can fly out in a swish, the emphasis is on surprises.

Regardless of whether Duan Lingguang is a fellow countryman or not, he doesn't really want to kill someone who has never done something.

Besides, Duan Lingguang, like him, came from another world.

It is best not to kill people.

Duan Lingguang passed by without noticing the danger, drank another glass of wine, and looked slightly drunk: "I plan to stay in Lin'an Mansion to retire, how about you? The capital is different from Lin'an Mansion, you are the teacher of the little emperor, The position is so conspicuous, it is quite dangerous. When you solve the first assistant of Wei, will you continue to be an official in the court?"

Lu Qing treats people warmly, but he is alienated from the inside and rarely talks about his heart. It is rare to meet a fellow countryman. After pondering for a while, he still replied: "No, I will resign after doing what I can do. , walk around."

In the last life, I was trapped in the same place because of heart disease. If I can't walk around again in this life, wouldn't I be worthy of this second life.

Duan Lingguang applauded: "Retreat bravely, it is called knowing the opportunity! I will say, there are so many rules, or stay by the rumored tyrant who is uncertain and murderous, aren't you afraid?"

Lu Qing frowned slightly and retorted without thinking: "He is not that tyrant."

Ning Juan was a little bit stubborn, but in front of him, the child was just the lovely Ning Guoguo.

Cute as a puppy.

Duan Lingguang saw that he was protecting Ning Juan so much, and smacked his tongue: "You guys are quite affectionate with teachers and students, but... brothers, we come from the same place, so I'll just say it straight, we've read so many historical books. "The emperor's teacher is a high-risk occupation. It's common to kill donkeys and cook rabbits and dogs. If you want to leave, the little emperor may not let you go, so you should keep some snacks."

Lu Qing's eyes flashed slightly, and he shook his head decisively: "He won't."

Seeing that he trusted the little emperor so much, Duan Lingguang no longer persuaded him, even if he was a fellow villager, making noise would be disgusting.

The painting boat drifted to the center of the lake at some point and approached another huge building ship.

The building ship was majestic and imposing. Nearly a hundred people on the side of the ship were patrolling with knives in an orderly manner. Although they were all wearing plain clothes, Lu Qing was too familiar with that kind of temperament.

They are all guards in the palace.

At this moment, a familiar figure was surrounded by people and appeared on the side of the boat. The lake was windy.

He didn't know what the people around him were talking about, but the man seemed to look this way.

Even if he encountered another corpse who was still calm and calm, Mr. Lu was a little uneasy when he arrived. He turned his head and said eagerly: "Get away from this building!"

Duan Lingguang made a dumbfounded "Ah" sound, clapped his hands, and ordered to go down.

The painting boat hurriedly opened, as if very guilty.

Lu Qingze's heart beat faster, and he rarely cursed in his heart.

These local officials can't count the number of sights in Lin'an, so there is no other place to go and no other entertainment?

Why every time the banquet is over, Ning Juan is invited to row the boat?

Aren't you afraid of blowing it to the emperor's head?

Also not clear.

Even if there are thousands of words, Lu Qing slandered for a long time, but he could only condense it into one sentence: There are so many picturesque cruise ships nearby, shouldn't Ning Juan see him?

He was sitting in the painting boat, the night was blurry, and he was far away. It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be.

Duan Lingguang also reacted: "The people on that boat just now are violent... your emperor's student?"

Lu Qing rubbed his forehead, his eyes still on the building boat, seeing that Ning Juan did not move, still surrounded by a group of officials, looking at the night scene of Lin'an Mansion with his hands behind his back, he was half relieved. Nodding: "I was almost seen."

Duan Lingguang: "...Even if you are seen, what are you doing with such a guilty conscience? You are the emperor's teacher, he still cares about you making friends? You didn't come to me to plot a rebellion."

As he spoke, he shook his head: "I have never seen you have such emotional ups and downs when I meet my fellow countryman. Tsk, you looked like a little daughter-in-law who was caught by her husband."

You can really describe it.

Lu Qing gave him a cool look.

Duan Lingguang glanced over there again, and made a gesture: "Across such a long distance, according to my experience, looking down from that building boat, the boats below are densely packed, and there are a bunch of black spots, I have to look for them immediately. It's a question of which boat to go out, let alone seeing the people on it, let alone seeing who is on the boat."

Makes sense.

Lu Qing's breath was completely relieved.

Duan Lingguang sat back and looked at the mask on his face curiously: "I heard that you injured your face in order to protect the little emperor, so you have been wearing a mask, is it true?"

There are actually quite a few people who know that Lu Qing is not disfigured, but they are all Ning Juan people with Chen Xiaodao and Xu Shu recently.

This fellow countryman is so frank, Lu Qing doesn't think there is any problem with showing his face - he covered his face at first to avoid trouble like Ning Cong, and secondly, to tell the little emperor a lie.

There are many components of a lie.

After all, there are so many perverts like Ning Cong, and he is not a sweet treat. Anyone who sees it wants to take a bite and take it home.

The painting boat struggled to stay away from the center of the lake, there were no other boats around, and both sides were quiet.

Lu Qing raised his hand and took off the mask.

The sparkling light reflected from the lake and landed on his face and eyes.

For a moment, Duan Lingguang felt as if he had seen a snow-like moonlight.

His Tai Lielie, who couldn't hold back when he saw his fellow villagers, pressed it back and breathed lightly. After a while, he nodded in agreement, "You should cover your face, and put the mask back on."

Lu Qing gave him a strange look and put the mask back on: "Am I so shameless?"

Is that how you understand it? !

Duan Lingguang hesitated for a while, suddenly remembered some well-known literature, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he asked tentatively, "Have you read novels a lot before?"

Lu Qing shook his head: "I only read one."

It is the original confiscated from the students.

Duan Lingguang stopped talking and wanted to say: "Then have you heard of a novel called Master's themed..."

After seeing Lu Qingze's face, he suddenly felt that Lu Qingze's career was even more dangerous.

Lu Qingze's eyes were full of doubts: "What is that?"

The eyes of the person on the other side were so clean, Duan Lingguang felt that what he said was a kind of filth, he opened his mouth, and finally swallowed the words back, and shook his fan embarrassingly: "It's nothing, it's just that I strayed from my thoughts for a while, and thought for a while, You don't need to care."

He must have thought too much, the original book is a plot of the rebellion!

Lu Qing didn't ask any further. He wasn't so curious, but remembered another thing: "Brother Duan, can you do me a favor?"

"You say." Duan Lingguang said, "As long as I can do it."

"It shouldn't be too troublesome," Lu Qing smiled, "Tomorrow and the day after, I should go back to Beijing with His Majesty. After we leave, can you ask someone to be a 'Lu Qingze' spiritual card? Into the Lu family's ancestral home?"

Duan Lingguang was shocked by these remarks, and he was really stunned for a while before he understood what he meant: "You scared me... No problem, it's a big deal, wrap it on me."

Lu Qing was not in good health. After the wind had been blowing for a while, and his thoughts recovered, he realized that he was chilling all over his body, and felt faintly uncomfortable. He rubbed his forehead again, and found that the headache was not an illusion, and said slowly: "Please let the painting boat lean on it. Come on, I should go back."

Duan Lingguang couldn't hold back his words, but seeing that his lips were turning white, he made people come to the shore.

Lu Qing was afraid that the lotus would be revealed after taking it back, so he didn't take it away, went ashore, and nodded slightly towards Duan Lingguang: "Meeting tonight is a secret for each other. If we come to safety in the future, I will come to you again."

Duan Lingguang gave birth to a bit of regret, but he did not hold back. He stood on the painting boat, spread out his fan, and said with a smile: "Be careful with everything in the capital, and have a safe journey. Hope to meet again, fellow townsman."

Lu Qing waved at him, turned and left, searching for the way back.

This place is a little far from the palace, and Lu Qing was weak and weak. He walked and stopped for a while. It took a while before returning to the agreed side entrance of the palace.

Chen Xiaodao was sitting on the steps, and he didn't dare to light the lantern. He fought with the buzzing mosquitoes for a long time in the night. When he saw that Lu Qing was finally back, he patted his chest: "Young master, why did you come back so late? ,Scared me."

Lu Qing handed him the lotus cake he bought on the road, and his eyes rolled down: "I talked a few more words with Mr. Duan, and it took a little delay. Didn't anyone find out?"

"I'm doing business, don't worry, young master!" Chen Xiaodao's eyes lit up when he saw the delicious food, he happily took it and hugged it in his arms, and led Lu Qing into the side door.

Lu Qing suddenly remembered what happened to Ning Wan on the lake, and was a little uneasy: "Is your majesty back?"

"No," Chen Xiaodao was very determined, "there is no movement ahead. When I came to the side door to wait for you, Changshun was still there. If Your Majesty comes back, the whole palace will know, you can rest assured. Look at you. Your lips are so pale, go back to the house to take a bath, change your clothes, drink a bowl of medicine and sleep, if you fall down again in the cold, Your Majesty should be in a hurry."

Lu Qing didn't want to drink the medicine and pretended not to hear the last sentence.

Chen Xiaodao was not in a hurry to eat lotus cake, and after sending Lu Qingze to the door, he quickly ran to the kitchen to bring the medicine.

Lu Qing looked at the back of him leaving in a hurry, smiled helplessly, pushed open the door and walked into the house.

It was dark in the house, and I couldn't see anything.

He recalled where the fire book was placed, and slowly touched the edge of the bed. Just as he touched the edge of the canopy bed, he was caught off guard by something and fell forward uncontrollably.

In the next moment, Lu Qing was slightly sweating.

Instead of falling onto the soft bedding, he fell into a hot embrace.

The cold fingers were grabbed by the opponent.

The aroma of sweet wine that was not noticed when entering the house floated in the air.

The faint voice sounded like thunder, coming from above his head: "Where did you go? Lu Huaixue."
