The fast travel is too late

Chapter 242 She is a fish in the pond (20)

All is ready except for the opportunity.

It's about Xin Wu's current situation.

The truth hidden behind the fire has been told by He Heizi later, and her elder brother who is worried about has also left the capital with the master in the academy. She only owes that gust of east wind, and she can go to Dengwengu without any worries.

The gate of the west city.

Xin Wu watched as Lu Zishan rode his horse to keep up with the academy team, his navy blue clothes gradually drifted away, and finally turned into a small black spot, which could no longer be seen.

The willow branches and leaves beside the road are green and swaying in the wind.

Thinking back to the willow branch that Lu Zishan forced her to break off by herself before Lu Zishan left, the leaves and buds on it were so vibrant. Like Lu Zishan, her favorite allusion since she was a child was to break a willow to see her off. , Just wait for the coming day to drink the wine in the pot together.

A trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes, who can tell what will happen in the future!
I only hope that when my brother comes back, what he sees is not a three-foot tomb.

"Miss, we should go back."

Shuang Jiang waited by the carriage for a long time, when a gust of wind blew by, she couldn't help shivering, looking at the young lady whose movements hadn't changed since the young master left, she was thinking of the housekeeper's special care before she left, and then Go to Xin Wu's side.

"Yeah, it's time to go back!"

Xin Wu looked away, sighed, turned and got into the carriage.

If she couldn't wait for the shareholder wind, she would have to put on her make-up and make her debut. After this scene was sung, she might not have the chance to step down.

Fish in the pond!

No matter how much he jumps, he can only jump from one pool to another.

When it should be hit, no one can save it.

The west gate was the closest to Xin Wu's residence, even so, it took her a lot of time to get home from the gate.

Just after returning home, before washing away the dust from outside, someone came to report that it was the housekeeper's visit.

Xin Wu had a difficult choice between going to take care of it first and recruiting the housekeeper to talk. With a flash of inspiration, she didn't even bother to wash up, and hurriedly asked for the housekeeper.

"Is there a letter from me?"

When Xin Wu saw Fang Bo, he had a smile on his face, but he couldn't help looking at Fang Bo's hands hidden in his sleeves.

Fang Bo handed the letter over to Xin Wu, and turned around to talk about how he got the letter.

"The old slave doesn't know if this letter is what the lady wanted. It was sent by a beggar on the street. There is no mark on the envelope, so that people can't tell where it came from. If the sender didn't ask for his name, Give it to Miss, the old slave originally didn't want to send something of unknown origin to Miss."

Fang Bo was very serious when he spoke. If it wasn't for Xin Wu who always sent people in front of him these days, talking about the letter openly and secretly, his first reaction when he got this letter would definitely be to destroy the body, no matter what was inside. He couldn't read what was written. Who knows if it was someone else's tool to target their young master or young lady, instead of handing it to the young lady and hurting the young lady, it would be better to destroy it directly.

Xin Wu's excitement faded.

If this wasn't a letter from Lu Zhensheng, she wouldn't be so happy.

The thin envelope was weightless at all, so light and fluffy that it could be blown away by a gust of wind.

She pursed her lips, suppressed the unease in her heart, carefully opened the envelope, and poured out the contents. A neatly stacked letter paper, after opening it, she saw a sentence written on it.

"Everything is as you wish."

The nonsensical words, Xin Wu looked at it but her eyes were red, saying that everything is as she wishes, and how many things can really be as she wishes.

There is no need to wait any longer, the east wind she wants has arrived, and it is time for her to take the stage.

Now even if she can't get off the stage, she won't have any regrets anymore.

It's just that she was ashamed of her elder brother. If he knew that after studying abroad, he would be a lone traveler in the world, would he resent her for crying and making him leave.

"It's the letter I want, thank you Fang Bo." Xin Wu raised his head and smiled, then showed a tired look.

Fang Bo had a change of heart, and he said goodbye and left, and Xin Wu did not keep him.

"Shuangjiang, go and ask Xiuniang. The clothes I want her to make are ready. If they are finished, bring them back and wash them, and then tell me. I'll go and have a rest first." Xin Wu held the dress in her hand. He turned around and went back to the inner room, lay down on the bed and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

Shuang Jiang took the order and left, and Xin Wu was the only one left in the inner room.

The people who had been guarding the beam for a long time saw that Xin Wu was breathing calmly and seemed to be in a deep sleep, so they jumped off from the top and went straight to the inner room.

As soon as he entered, he saw that Xin Wu's shoes were still on, and he was lying on the edge of the bed with only half of his body in an awkward posture, so that his eyebrows were still furrowed in his sleep.

The man who came down from the beam walked quietly to Xin Wu's side, took off her shoes and coat for her, and then stuffed her into the bed, traced Xin Wu's appearance with his fingers in the air, and it took him a long time to hear the sound. He sighed, "Ah Wu, what do you want me to do!"

When I woke up from this sleep, it was already the beginning of the lights.

It was already dark outside, Xin Wu touched his flat stomach, and reached out to ring the bell beside the bed. After a while, Shuang Jiang who was guarding the outside came in with toiletries.

Under Shuang Jiang's service, Xin Wu not only washed her face, but also changed her clothes. She looked at the coat that was put on the bedside when she woke up, and she always felt that she didn't look like this before going to bed. She seemed to hear Lu Zhensheng's voice, looking at the corner of the letter paper exposed under the pillow, she must have thought too much, it is impossible for Lu Zhensheng to appear in her room without disturbing others.

Hearing his voice in a trance, maybe it's because of thinking and dreaming!
A few days later, Xin Wu changed into the clothes that the embroiderer had made. They were not complicated styles, or ordinary filial piety clothes. The sleeves and neckline were trimmed, and the same white fabric was used. , there is no other embellishment other than that, she asked Shuangjiang to comb her hair in a bun that was not easy to unravel, and looked at her current appearance repeatedly in front of the bronze mirror, and then let the sun rise before the sun rose. The housekeeper drove the car and took her to the vicinity of Dengwen Drum.

It is true that Dengwen drums can be heard in Datian, but not everyone can play them.

It is impossible to skip the yamen trial and appear directly in front of the emperor without paying some price.

If you want to beat the Dengwen Drum, you have to go through the Palace of Life and Death first, which is the price you have to pay.

The Hall of Life and Death is just a folk rumor, but in fact, you have to go through three passes, ten lashes, a bed of iron nails, and the road of charcoal fire, which is called a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire.

Usually those who play the drums are men. Men are strong and strong, so that they will not die before the drums are played.

When Xin Wu got out of the carriage, Fang Bo, who was driving the carriage, endured and endured, but he still couldn't help persuading him: "Miss, why don't we go back, this palace of life and death is something you, a little girl, can safely pass through." He looked at the grown-up child, how could he bear to watch her go to a dead end.

Xin Wu smiled at him, and looked forward firmly, "I must go!"
