After becoming the protagonist of abuse
Chapter 42 Map
"Bring it here?" Wang Yan sneered, but said nothing.
Yang Yan was annoyed, "If you are willing to give up, then don't say anything, if you want to persist..."
Speaking of this, Yang Yan suddenly pulled Luo Xi.
Luo Xi looked over subconsciously.
Yang Yan quickly kissed Luo Xi, then pretended nothing happened, and continued, "If you want to persist, then seize every opportunity, it's never too late."
Look, isn't he taking advantage of it now?
The touch of the lips was a bit soft, Luo Xi was slightly taken aback.
The place where they were sitting was in a corner, Wang Yan didn't want anyone to discover Lu Qiang's identity, and there were not many people around, so no one noticed the movement here for a while.
Yang Yan was analyzing the situation with Wang Yan, but his face was a little reddish, and he just didn't look at Luo Xi.
Wang Yan was startled, then smiled again, "I am not as good as you."
Lu Qiang asked in a low voice, "You just let Young Master Yang mess around?"
"There's always me," Luo Xi smiled slightly, not caring that this scene was seen, "As long as he is happy."
Lu Qiang sighed slightly, "Maybe the two of you can make it to the end, I probably won't see this day, I wish you two grow old together in advance."
Yang Yan felt much happier.
Wang Yan and Lu Qiang leaned against each other, "You go first, I will sit with her for a while."
Luo Xi and Yang Yan left, and when Luo Xi sent Yang Yan to the gate of Yang's mansion, Yang Yan suddenly asked, "Do you mind my offense just now?"
"In front of Wang Yan and the princess, I naturally said that I don't mind." Luo Xi smiled a little, "But I think that since Mr. Yang is such a rascal, then I should do it the same way as he did. "
Yang Yan suddenly realized what kind of "return" method this was, and coughed lightly.
"When I save more, I will settle the accounts together." Luo Xi raised her eyebrows.
"I'll wait." Yang Yan's heart beat faster.
Yang Binghua sat in the middle of the lobby, waiting for Yang Yan for a long time.
Yang Binghua asked, "Where did you go?"
"Go out for a stroll." Yang Yan didn't want to say more.
"Forget it," Yang Binghua said suddenly, "you will follow me to the palace tomorrow."
Yang Yan was a little reluctant, "What's the matter?"
"Shu'er is pregnant with a child," Yang Binghua said with a slight smile on his face, "Since you get close to Luo Xi on weekdays, why not persuade Luo Xi as well, it would be great if you can bring the whole Luo family along, this child The future will definitely be extraordinary..."
Yang Binghua had already figured it out, the empress had no children, and the concubine's background was average, Yang Shu was not bad among them, and the mother of the eldest prince was only born as a maid, so it is not impossible to have a young son.
"You think I'm you?" Yang Yan's face suddenly turned cold, "How Luo Xi decides has nothing to do with me, besides, Yang Shu is only pregnant, she doesn't know if it's a boy or a girl, and she can't say whether she can give birth. "
Yang Binghua's face darkened, "Who am I for? Will this family be handed over to you in the future? Support this prince, and the Yang family will be stable in the future, and I don't have to worry about you."
"I'm afraid you think the world is a fool," Yang Yan didn't want to waste his tongue, turned and left.
The next day, the will of the marriage was formally issued.
The third princess, Lu Qiang, bestowed the title of Princess Zhaoyang and married her to Yue.
When Lu Qiang received the order, she tightly clenched the palace fan in her hand, her fingers turning pale.
The title that she didn't have since she was a child, but now she has it, is like this.
It is now January, and the time for the marriage is set to be in early March. During these two months, the royal family also needs to prepare a heavy dowry and wait for the dowry from the Yue Kingdom.
It should have been expected that Yuanxiao's ability to leave the palace yesterday was the only pity the emperor had for her, but now that she knew the result, Lu Qiang still couldn't help crying.
The queen personally put on the phoenix robe and invited the emperor to the Jiaofang Hall.
"Your Majesty, Qiang'er is my only daughter..." The queen turned pale.
"Yang Jieyu is pregnant," the emperor comforted, "If it is the prince, I will adopt it under your name as a legitimate son."
When it came to this, the emperor became ruthless and decided to leave the mother and keep the son.
"What about Qiang'er?" The queen couldn't help pleading, "I don't want other people's sons, I just want my own daughter. Can't I not get married? The clan also has daughters of the right age, and the fourth princess..."
The queen can't go on talking, the fourth princess is only 13 years old now, and she usually calls her queen mother, and she usually rewards some things, but she is not willing to part with her own daughter.
The emperor sighed silently, and explained the great principles in the court hall again and again, but he didn't realize that the queen's face was already pale, and she was getting more and more desperate.
The queen was ill, and the emperor sent an imperial doctor to treat her. The envoys of the Yue Kingdom just said that the queen had a deep affection for the princess, and repeatedly promised that the Yue Congress would treat the princess well, and the prince would treat the princess with kindness.
Looking at the messages coming and going, Luo Xi fell into deep thought.
In the plot, there are not many descriptions about these contents, but Lu Qiang still went to marry, the queen became ill and died after Lu Qiang left, and the emperor became more and more moody.
Before Luo Xi could figure out what was going on and decide what to do next, he received an order from the palace that Princess Zhaoyang wanted to see him.
Luo Xi saw Lu Qiang and found that she had lost a lot of weight.
There are quite a few palace people around, and there are still a few Kong Wu powerful, obviously here to stare at people.
The queen and Luo Xi said a few words first, and then scolded the palace servants to go down.
Luo Xi smiled helplessly, while Lu Qiang held the teacup, "I hope Mr. Luo will take the message for me, and tell him not to wait any longer."
Luo Xi naturally knew who Lu Qiang wanted to tell, but now she just nodded.
Lu Qiang said some other things, nothing more than taking care of herself, she is now shouldering the mission of a country, and the two are destined to miss each other.
With that said, the tears came down again.
Luo Xi sighed secretly, but still persuaded, "There is no unparalleled road, if the princess is obsessed with mourning, it may not help, she might as well think of a way to break the situation."
Even if you go to Yue, as long as you have a high position and authority, you will have time to come back in the future.
Lu Qiang forced a smile, but she was no longer as charming as before.
After Luo Xi left, Lu Qiang went to serve the Queen with medicine.
The queen patted Lu Qiang's hand, "Don't worry, the imperial doctor said it's not a serious illness."
Lu Qiang said with tears in her eyes, "Mother, you have to take care."
When Lu Qiang left, the queen looked at the palace servants, "Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Qiang'er has grown so old."
The maid helped the queen to get up, and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, empress, you are a queen, and it will be better in the future."
The queen looked at the pale face reflected in the bronze mirror, and couldn't help laughing, "I'm old too, but it's a pity I didn't marry Qiang'er two years ago, but now I'm hurting her instead."
"Pour out the medicine," the queen ordered the maid to open the window, "I should finally do something for Qiang'er."
The cold wind was blowing away the warmth in the Jiaofang Hall.
Luo Xi asked someone to send a letter to Wang Yan, passed these words over, and didn't think too much about it.
No letter from Wang Yan came out, and the owner of the Wang family is also an old fox, it is impossible to let Wang Yan make trouble outside.Now that the Lantern Festival is over, he has taken sick leave for Wang Yan, and Wang Yan will probably not be able to go out until Princess Zhaoyang leaves the capital.
Luo Shangshu has been relatively free lately, and finally found time to let that teacher check the learning status of Luo Chang and Luo Xi.
It has nothing to do with poetry and has nothing to do with history, and the focus is only on the handling of affairs, depending on their attitude.
Luo Chang got stuck on the edge, and Luo Xi was scolded again.
Luo Shangshu was a little annoyed, "You're killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred."
Luo Xi paused for a while, and said in an excuse, "My method is much faster than elder brother's, and the effect is also better."
"This is the reason why you take yourself to risk?" It's okay not to say, Luo Shangshu's face is not very good-looking when he thinks about it, and he repeats it several times.
Luo Xi gradually lost his mind, he had heard these words several times, and almost memorized them.
Luo Shangshu patted the table, pointed at the pigeon and said, "You too, don't help him to send the letter, let him reflect on himself in his own yard."
The pigeon pointed its butt at Luo Shangshu, and continued to fight against melons and fruits.
Luo Xi was taken aback, "Uncle, I have an appointment with someone tonight..."
He and Yang Yan made an appointment to go out together today.
Although there is nothing serious to do, we are always happy together.
Luo Shangshu didn't listen to him and left directly.
As it was getting dark, Luo Xi poked the pigeon, "Why don't you send a message for me to tell him not to wait."
The pigeon hopped and hopped away.
It cooed, but refused to fly out.
"Okay." Luo Xi had no choice but to change into black clothes, "You wait in the yard for me to come back."
Yang Yu helped watch the wind and found a few reasons to dismiss the guards.
Frankly speaking, Luo Xi has been studying martial arts with Luo Guogong for a long time, but he hasn't tried to climb the wall much, and this is the first time.
Fortunately, the walls of these courtyards are not high, and Luo Xi is very familiar with the patrolling routes of the guards at home, so now he can easily avoid them.
When she was about to leave the courtyard, Luo Xi saw Yang Yan on the opposite wall when Luo Xi was about to jump down on the double wall.
Yang Yan and Luo Xi looked at each other across the wall.
Luo Xi was taken aback, "What are you?"
"I came to see you to see the scenery. If I can't wait for you, I will come here by myself," Yang Yan said, propping his arms on the wall, and turned over directly, "What about you?"
There was playfulness in Yang Yan's eyes, no one knew that Luo Xi, a son of a noble family, was usually personable, but this was the first time he broke his image and jumped over the wall directly.
Luo Xi's throat moved, "I want to see you."
The two chatted like this, and forgot the time for a while, let alone noticing the person walking from a distance.
When Luo Chang came, he happened to see this scene.
The sickly cousin dangled on the fence, not caring how dangerous a place he was in, and Yang Yan who appeared out of nowhere with a smile in his eyes seemed to want to lure Luo Xi to go out.
"You two, come down!" Luo Chang's face darkened.
Luo Xi was arrested this time and had to copy the house rules again.
Luo Chang murmured, "Look, which family's children have to go over the wall when they go out from their own house? How decent is this?"
"Me." Yang Yan interrupted.
Yang Binghua was looking for trouble every day, but Yang Yan had no choice but to find a way to get out every day, and it was nothing to climb the wall.
Luo Chang's face darkened, and he started arguing with Yang Yan, who was not to be outdone.
In terms of eloquence, Luo Chang really can't compare to Yang Yan, but Yang Yan seems to have restrained himself for Luo Xi's sake.
Luo Chang glanced suspiciously at Yang Yan several times, mainly because Luo Xi said before that he liked men, and now that Yang Yan and Luo Xi were so close, it inevitably made him suspicious.
Of course, Luo Chang was also embarrassed to ask who Luo Xi had his eyes on, and if he could help create a few opportunities.
Yang Yan felt a little guilty in his heart, but his face was still calm, "We are close friends. In this capital, there is no other person who understands me like Luo Xi."
"Azhi is used to being smart," Luo Chang looked away, and simply changed the subject.
Luo Chang was afraid that Luo Shangshu and Luo Guogong would be worried, so he didn't tell the matter, but asked Luo Xi to copy the family rules twice and hand them over to him.
When Luo Chang left, Luo Xi looked at Yang Yan and asked with a smile, "A bosom friend?"
"Naturally!" Faced with Luo Xi's burning eyes, Yang Yan insisted.
The first page of the newspaper is an opera written by Yang Yanxin. The protagonist is still Mr. Yang. He said, "They all say they want to turn into lovebirds and Lian Lizhi. In my opinion, only one confidant is enough in this world."
Although it was a copy of the family rules, but with Yang Yan's help, the two copied it very quickly, and sent it to Luo Chang that night.
On the other hand, Luo Chang, looking at the completely different handwriting of Luo Xi and Yang Yan, felt weird...
That night, Yang Yan stayed in Luo Xi's room again.
The pigeon wanted to warm up in the bed, but was kicked out by Yang Yan, "Go, go, you have your own bed."
The pigeon cooed, aggressively.
As soon as Yang Yan turned around, he met Luo Xi's eyes. Luo Xi took the snack plate to coax the pigeon, and coaxed it away.
Yang Yan took off his clothes and leaned inside.
Luo Xi turned off the light and lay down too.
The surroundings were plunged into darkness, Yang Yan poked Luo Xi's waist, leaned closer and said, "I can't sleep."
The warm breath sprayed on Luo Xi's collarbone, and he grabbed Yang Yan's hand, "Don't touch it randomly."
Although the winter is getting colder, Yang Yan himself is a little angry, "I'm not sleepy at all."
He was vaguely looking forward to something else.
Luo Xi was silent for a moment, "Then shall I tell you a story?"
A bedtime story seems to work too.Besides, Luo Xi didn't know how to coax another person to sleep.
Yang Yan was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He pulled back his hand forcefully, "I don't want to listen to the story."
"Then you are?" Luo Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she had another guess.
Yang Yan snorted, "I just want to sleep now."
Before going to sleep, Yang Yan thought angrily, the closer he was to Luo Xi, the more angry everyone would be, and we'll see who can't help it first.
Luo Xi turned over and held Yang Yan's hand just in time, and Yang Yan leaned towards him.
It snowed again last night, Luo Xi and Yang Yan got up late, they cuddled together, and it took a long time for Yang Yan to leave.
At this time, the eldest prince Lu Xia came to visit Luo Xi.
Luo Xi naturally invited him to sit down and served good tea.
Lu Xia smiled wryly, "Master Luo, long time no see."
Since that palace banquet, Luo Xi has never met the eldest prince again.
Luo Xi looked carefully, but saw several wounds on Lu Xia's forehead.
"Master Luo laughed." Lu Xia slightly pulled down her feather cap, "My sister is getting married, and I've been restless these days. I wanted to tell my father to choose someone else, but instead I offended him."
One of the wounds on the forehead was knocked out while kneeling, and the other was smashed out by the emperor with a teacup.
"This matter has nothing to do with the eldest prince, why should the eldest prince?" Luo Xi was a little puzzled.
Lu Xia shook her head, with a more lonely expression, "When my mother was in charge of the harem, she never disliked my mother and concubine's low status, so my mother and concubine could be buried in the imperial mausoleum, and the daily expenses were never deducted by my mother, sister He has always been kind to my brothers."
The emperor looked down on the concubine's prince, and the only concubine had only one daughter. These brothers and sisters didn't have those calculations, but they showed a little truth.
"Eldest prince Youti siblings," Luo Xi sighed slightly.
It was no wonder that Yue Qingling was willing to choose him. If an emperor could think more about the people below, miss his old love more, and be kind to those around him, officials would be more willing to follow him.
If the eldest prince can succeed... Luo Xi propped his forehead, he can take another look.
"Now I only hate myself for being incompetent," Lu Xia forced a smile with a grim expression on her face, "I hope Mr. Luo will teach me."
"The safest way, of course, is to wait. After many years, if the eldest prince can assume power, he can plan to take Princess Zhaoyang back to the country." Luo Xi said lightly.
Lu Xia shook his head and sighed, "What if I don't want to wait? The envoys from the Yue Kingdom came first, and now the dowry gift from the Yue Kingdom has also arrived. I'm afraid it will be difficult to change the marriage."
The queen is seriously ill, and now the soup and medicine are poured day by day, but it is completely useless.
Lu Qiang stayed in the Jiaofang Hall every day, but it didn't make the queen any better.
Luo Xi was helpless, "If there is no need to make a marriage, it is naturally the best way. If Princess Zhaoyang leaves during the marriage, it will only bring more trouble."
As long as she gets on the bridal sedan chair, Lu Qiang will die, and she can only die in the country of Yue.
Otherwise, once the battle started, Lu Qiang would run away, and there would be no way to settle down in this life, and those people who died because of her would also be dreaming every day at midnight.
Having said that, Luo Xi seriously took out a list, "Princess will need manpower to go to Yue. Most of them are good players who have retreated from the frontier. They are only partially disabled, but their strength is not bad. Now they are about to Back home, if the princess wants to, she can also invite them to go to Yue country together."
Form a small army in the past, there will be some changes in the future, and there will be a way to adapt.
"Thank you, Mr. Luo," Lu Xia also knew that what he said was embarrassing, and it was a surprise to get this list now.
Luo Xi watched Lu Xia leave.
The last time I talked about the return of the soldiers, some people didn’t want to go back. After all, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, and their families are already old, not to mention they are disabled, even if they go back, there will be nothing good.
He calculated that among those who did not want to return home, some soldiers entered his workshop to help make newspapers, some were sent by him to various post stations to act as liaisons, and some were used to protect the caravan. Someone gave it to Princess Zhaoyang.
As for the others, Luo Xi also tried to make arrangements for those who wanted to go back to their hometown, and gave them more silver for them. If the Luo family had a local newspaper shop, they could also be allowed to work in the shop, so that they could make a living at least.
After writing down these contents one by one, Luo Xi handed them to Luo Guogong. Luo Guogong didn't say anything, but just added a sum of money to accommodate the disabled soldiers as much as possible.
In terms of details, Luo Xi also discussed with Luo Guogong.
Suddenly, a bell sounded from the direction of the palace.
Luo Zhi hurried over, her face turned pale, "The empress has passed away."
The red decorations in the mansion have already been removed, and now they need to enter the palace.
"How come?" Luo Xi was taken aback.
When he went to meet Lu Qiang in the palace that day, the queen also met him, and her complexion seemed to be fine at that time, but now it was only a month later.
How could the queen die of illness?
This is what Luo Xi doesn't understand. There is no shortage of medicinal materials and master doctors in the palace. It can be said that it is the most prosperous place.
In the plot, the queen waited until Lu Qiang and her relatives went to Yue to get sick, but now the time has come earlier.
But the imperial doctor said that the queen had been sick since mid-January, and she had been drinking medicine to boil, thinking about Princess Zhaoyang, but unfortunately she caught a cold in the end, and now there is no cure for it.
It is now mid-February.
Luo Xi was busy with family and newspaper affairs, hoping to speed up expansion, and left all the free time for Yang Yan, and didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the palace.
Now that they entered the palace again, everyone in the Luo family went to pay homage to the queen.
At the place where the coffin stopped, Lu Qiang knelt in front of her and wept, while Lu Xia received everyone beside her.
Luo Xi also went to burn incense, and comforted her in a low voice, "My condolences."
Lu Qiang wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and the maid beside her supported her.
Lu Qiang forced a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Luo."
It's hard to say extra words, Luo Xi sighed slightly, and stood a little further away.
Mrs. Wang also rarely entered the palace, she took a look at Lu Qiang, and offered her incense in peace.
In the past, she couldn't understand such a mediocre queen with no talent, but now that the dead is the big one, she also felt a little pity for Lu Qiang.But if she was asked to pay for her own son, that would not work!
The queen passed away, and she stopped working on July 49th. The people are not allowed to have happy events within a year, and the wedding and wife probably have to be delayed.
The maid who had been with the queen for a long time helped Lu Qiang up, "Princess, the empress has not been buried yet, and the princess has three years of filial piety, maybe we will get married..."
There was some longing in the maid's eyes, Lu Qiang suddenly realized, she looked at the queen's spiritual seat, tears streaming down her eyes.
The eldest prince Lu Xia also heard these words, his eyes lit up, and he knelt down towards the emperor next to him, "Imperial father, now that the empress mother has passed away, Princess Zhaoyang is the daughter of the empress mother, so she should also keep her filial piety for the empress."
After delaying for 49 days first, and then three years of filial piety, Lu Qiang is naturally unnecessary for this marriage.
Lu Xia is full of confidence. Give him another three years, and the situation will naturally be different from the past. Maybe they don't need to get married, they can still reach an agreement with the Yue Kingdom.
The emperor had been looking at the queen's spiritual seat all the time, but now he looked away sullenly, looked at Lu Xia, and kicked him, "If the queen sees Zhaoyang getting married, she will be happier, why are you at ease!"
Lu Qiang's face turned pale, and she saluted reluctantly, "Father, can you let me wait until my mother's burial..."
"The auspicious day selected by Qin Tianjian, how can I change it at will?" The emperor looked at Lu Qiang with a little disgust in his eyes, "There is also a folk saying that you get married during the Hundred Days of Filial Piety. After three years, you will be too old. You To kowtow in front of the queen's spiritual throne and get married as soon as possible is considered a filial piety."
Lu Xia was shocked, "Father, the folks are making a 'desert relationship', even for the sake of my sister's reputation, it shouldn't be like this."
The folks get married in a "desert relationship" and marry a daughter while the heat is hot, either because the family is really poor and unwilling to raise it for a few more years, or because there is something wrong with the girl and they are afraid that it will be exposed after a delay.
The emperor slammed a teacup over, "Zhaoyang has the important task of marriage, what could be more important than this?"
The porcelain cup shattered, and some pieces of porcelain splashed onto Lu Xia.
Lu Qiang's face was pale, she looked at the emperor, silent.
The emperor got angry and rushed away angrily. Lu Xia knelt on the ground and didn't move for a long time.
Luo Xi also received tip-offs from other people. Although the specific content is not clear, the fact that the emperor got angry at the eldest prince Lu Xia couldn't be more true.
Now that the queen has died of illness, in order to reduce public opinion, Luo Xi even refreshed the contents of the newspaper a lot.
Although the courtiers said they were going to offer incense and worship, most of the wives of the families went out. Luo Zhi's face was not very good when she came back, "The princess has lost a lot of weight these days."
After her mother passed away, she still had to go to marry her, and some courtiers who urged Lu Qiang became much quieter.
Luo Xi's life is almost the same as before, but he has things on his mind, and now it is more urgent.
The next day, he entered Duke Luo's study, and Duke Luo was taken aback. He was discussing something with his staff, and there was a map spread out on the table.
The people around had been very familiar with Luo Xi for a long time, and they hadn't reported it before, so Luo Xi came in directly.
When the staff saw Luo Xi, they bowed and left on their own initiative.
Luo Xi looked at the map, his eyes lit up.
Ancient times are no better than modern times. Without satellite GPS, Luo Xi has a good understanding of the topography of Jiangnan and Kyoto. Other places are also dark at a glance. At most, he can only know which place produces what from the book, and the specific topography is completely unclear.
Luo Guogong was taken aback, thinking about putting away the map, "How is the homework assigned last time?"
"It's all done," Luo Xi originally wanted to come over to ask a few questions, but now he is staring at the map, "Father, can I have a look?"
Sensing Luo Guogong's daze, Luo Xi realized that what he said was a little sudden, and continued to add, "I just want to know what other places look like."
The author has something to say: After writing this, I suddenly remembered some scumbag quotes: I'm just going to rub...
Thank you for waiting for me, I wish you all a Merry Christmas. Comment on this chapter within 24 hours and you will get a red envelope. Come and pick it up, cute!
感谢在2019-12-2312:31:34~2019-12-2517:57:43期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
Thanks to the little angel who threw the landmines: one evil ghost, October, and Wuyou;
Thanks to the little angel of the irrigation nutrient solution: 20 bottles of bad nicknames; 10 bottles of Wuyou; 5 bottles of Zixiao Mingyue;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Yang Yan was annoyed, "If you are willing to give up, then don't say anything, if you want to persist..."
Speaking of this, Yang Yan suddenly pulled Luo Xi.
Luo Xi looked over subconsciously.
Yang Yan quickly kissed Luo Xi, then pretended nothing happened, and continued, "If you want to persist, then seize every opportunity, it's never too late."
Look, isn't he taking advantage of it now?
The touch of the lips was a bit soft, Luo Xi was slightly taken aback.
The place where they were sitting was in a corner, Wang Yan didn't want anyone to discover Lu Qiang's identity, and there were not many people around, so no one noticed the movement here for a while.
Yang Yan was analyzing the situation with Wang Yan, but his face was a little reddish, and he just didn't look at Luo Xi.
Wang Yan was startled, then smiled again, "I am not as good as you."
Lu Qiang asked in a low voice, "You just let Young Master Yang mess around?"
"There's always me," Luo Xi smiled slightly, not caring that this scene was seen, "As long as he is happy."
Lu Qiang sighed slightly, "Maybe the two of you can make it to the end, I probably won't see this day, I wish you two grow old together in advance."
Yang Yan felt much happier.
Wang Yan and Lu Qiang leaned against each other, "You go first, I will sit with her for a while."
Luo Xi and Yang Yan left, and when Luo Xi sent Yang Yan to the gate of Yang's mansion, Yang Yan suddenly asked, "Do you mind my offense just now?"
"In front of Wang Yan and the princess, I naturally said that I don't mind." Luo Xi smiled a little, "But I think that since Mr. Yang is such a rascal, then I should do it the same way as he did. "
Yang Yan suddenly realized what kind of "return" method this was, and coughed lightly.
"When I save more, I will settle the accounts together." Luo Xi raised her eyebrows.
"I'll wait." Yang Yan's heart beat faster.
Yang Binghua sat in the middle of the lobby, waiting for Yang Yan for a long time.
Yang Binghua asked, "Where did you go?"
"Go out for a stroll." Yang Yan didn't want to say more.
"Forget it," Yang Binghua said suddenly, "you will follow me to the palace tomorrow."
Yang Yan was a little reluctant, "What's the matter?"
"Shu'er is pregnant with a child," Yang Binghua said with a slight smile on his face, "Since you get close to Luo Xi on weekdays, why not persuade Luo Xi as well, it would be great if you can bring the whole Luo family along, this child The future will definitely be extraordinary..."
Yang Binghua had already figured it out, the empress had no children, and the concubine's background was average, Yang Shu was not bad among them, and the mother of the eldest prince was only born as a maid, so it is not impossible to have a young son.
"You think I'm you?" Yang Yan's face suddenly turned cold, "How Luo Xi decides has nothing to do with me, besides, Yang Shu is only pregnant, she doesn't know if it's a boy or a girl, and she can't say whether she can give birth. "
Yang Binghua's face darkened, "Who am I for? Will this family be handed over to you in the future? Support this prince, and the Yang family will be stable in the future, and I don't have to worry about you."
"I'm afraid you think the world is a fool," Yang Yan didn't want to waste his tongue, turned and left.
The next day, the will of the marriage was formally issued.
The third princess, Lu Qiang, bestowed the title of Princess Zhaoyang and married her to Yue.
When Lu Qiang received the order, she tightly clenched the palace fan in her hand, her fingers turning pale.
The title that she didn't have since she was a child, but now she has it, is like this.
It is now January, and the time for the marriage is set to be in early March. During these two months, the royal family also needs to prepare a heavy dowry and wait for the dowry from the Yue Kingdom.
It should have been expected that Yuanxiao's ability to leave the palace yesterday was the only pity the emperor had for her, but now that she knew the result, Lu Qiang still couldn't help crying.
The queen personally put on the phoenix robe and invited the emperor to the Jiaofang Hall.
"Your Majesty, Qiang'er is my only daughter..." The queen turned pale.
"Yang Jieyu is pregnant," the emperor comforted, "If it is the prince, I will adopt it under your name as a legitimate son."
When it came to this, the emperor became ruthless and decided to leave the mother and keep the son.
"What about Qiang'er?" The queen couldn't help pleading, "I don't want other people's sons, I just want my own daughter. Can't I not get married? The clan also has daughters of the right age, and the fourth princess..."
The queen can't go on talking, the fourth princess is only 13 years old now, and she usually calls her queen mother, and she usually rewards some things, but she is not willing to part with her own daughter.
The emperor sighed silently, and explained the great principles in the court hall again and again, but he didn't realize that the queen's face was already pale, and she was getting more and more desperate.
The queen was ill, and the emperor sent an imperial doctor to treat her. The envoys of the Yue Kingdom just said that the queen had a deep affection for the princess, and repeatedly promised that the Yue Congress would treat the princess well, and the prince would treat the princess with kindness.
Looking at the messages coming and going, Luo Xi fell into deep thought.
In the plot, there are not many descriptions about these contents, but Lu Qiang still went to marry, the queen became ill and died after Lu Qiang left, and the emperor became more and more moody.
Before Luo Xi could figure out what was going on and decide what to do next, he received an order from the palace that Princess Zhaoyang wanted to see him.
Luo Xi saw Lu Qiang and found that she had lost a lot of weight.
There are quite a few palace people around, and there are still a few Kong Wu powerful, obviously here to stare at people.
The queen and Luo Xi said a few words first, and then scolded the palace servants to go down.
Luo Xi smiled helplessly, while Lu Qiang held the teacup, "I hope Mr. Luo will take the message for me, and tell him not to wait any longer."
Luo Xi naturally knew who Lu Qiang wanted to tell, but now she just nodded.
Lu Qiang said some other things, nothing more than taking care of herself, she is now shouldering the mission of a country, and the two are destined to miss each other.
With that said, the tears came down again.
Luo Xi sighed secretly, but still persuaded, "There is no unparalleled road, if the princess is obsessed with mourning, it may not help, she might as well think of a way to break the situation."
Even if you go to Yue, as long as you have a high position and authority, you will have time to come back in the future.
Lu Qiang forced a smile, but she was no longer as charming as before.
After Luo Xi left, Lu Qiang went to serve the Queen with medicine.
The queen patted Lu Qiang's hand, "Don't worry, the imperial doctor said it's not a serious illness."
Lu Qiang said with tears in her eyes, "Mother, you have to take care."
When Lu Qiang left, the queen looked at the palace servants, "Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Qiang'er has grown so old."
The maid helped the queen to get up, and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, empress, you are a queen, and it will be better in the future."
The queen looked at the pale face reflected in the bronze mirror, and couldn't help laughing, "I'm old too, but it's a pity I didn't marry Qiang'er two years ago, but now I'm hurting her instead."
"Pour out the medicine," the queen ordered the maid to open the window, "I should finally do something for Qiang'er."
The cold wind was blowing away the warmth in the Jiaofang Hall.
Luo Xi asked someone to send a letter to Wang Yan, passed these words over, and didn't think too much about it.
No letter from Wang Yan came out, and the owner of the Wang family is also an old fox, it is impossible to let Wang Yan make trouble outside.Now that the Lantern Festival is over, he has taken sick leave for Wang Yan, and Wang Yan will probably not be able to go out until Princess Zhaoyang leaves the capital.
Luo Shangshu has been relatively free lately, and finally found time to let that teacher check the learning status of Luo Chang and Luo Xi.
It has nothing to do with poetry and has nothing to do with history, and the focus is only on the handling of affairs, depending on their attitude.
Luo Chang got stuck on the edge, and Luo Xi was scolded again.
Luo Shangshu was a little annoyed, "You're killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred."
Luo Xi paused for a while, and said in an excuse, "My method is much faster than elder brother's, and the effect is also better."
"This is the reason why you take yourself to risk?" It's okay not to say, Luo Shangshu's face is not very good-looking when he thinks about it, and he repeats it several times.
Luo Xi gradually lost his mind, he had heard these words several times, and almost memorized them.
Luo Shangshu patted the table, pointed at the pigeon and said, "You too, don't help him to send the letter, let him reflect on himself in his own yard."
The pigeon pointed its butt at Luo Shangshu, and continued to fight against melons and fruits.
Luo Xi was taken aback, "Uncle, I have an appointment with someone tonight..."
He and Yang Yan made an appointment to go out together today.
Although there is nothing serious to do, we are always happy together.
Luo Shangshu didn't listen to him and left directly.
As it was getting dark, Luo Xi poked the pigeon, "Why don't you send a message for me to tell him not to wait."
The pigeon hopped and hopped away.
It cooed, but refused to fly out.
"Okay." Luo Xi had no choice but to change into black clothes, "You wait in the yard for me to come back."
Yang Yu helped watch the wind and found a few reasons to dismiss the guards.
Frankly speaking, Luo Xi has been studying martial arts with Luo Guogong for a long time, but he hasn't tried to climb the wall much, and this is the first time.
Fortunately, the walls of these courtyards are not high, and Luo Xi is very familiar with the patrolling routes of the guards at home, so now he can easily avoid them.
When she was about to leave the courtyard, Luo Xi saw Yang Yan on the opposite wall when Luo Xi was about to jump down on the double wall.
Yang Yan and Luo Xi looked at each other across the wall.
Luo Xi was taken aback, "What are you?"
"I came to see you to see the scenery. If I can't wait for you, I will come here by myself," Yang Yan said, propping his arms on the wall, and turned over directly, "What about you?"
There was playfulness in Yang Yan's eyes, no one knew that Luo Xi, a son of a noble family, was usually personable, but this was the first time he broke his image and jumped over the wall directly.
Luo Xi's throat moved, "I want to see you."
The two chatted like this, and forgot the time for a while, let alone noticing the person walking from a distance.
When Luo Chang came, he happened to see this scene.
The sickly cousin dangled on the fence, not caring how dangerous a place he was in, and Yang Yan who appeared out of nowhere with a smile in his eyes seemed to want to lure Luo Xi to go out.
"You two, come down!" Luo Chang's face darkened.
Luo Xi was arrested this time and had to copy the house rules again.
Luo Chang murmured, "Look, which family's children have to go over the wall when they go out from their own house? How decent is this?"
"Me." Yang Yan interrupted.
Yang Binghua was looking for trouble every day, but Yang Yan had no choice but to find a way to get out every day, and it was nothing to climb the wall.
Luo Chang's face darkened, and he started arguing with Yang Yan, who was not to be outdone.
In terms of eloquence, Luo Chang really can't compare to Yang Yan, but Yang Yan seems to have restrained himself for Luo Xi's sake.
Luo Chang glanced suspiciously at Yang Yan several times, mainly because Luo Xi said before that he liked men, and now that Yang Yan and Luo Xi were so close, it inevitably made him suspicious.
Of course, Luo Chang was also embarrassed to ask who Luo Xi had his eyes on, and if he could help create a few opportunities.
Yang Yan felt a little guilty in his heart, but his face was still calm, "We are close friends. In this capital, there is no other person who understands me like Luo Xi."
"Azhi is used to being smart," Luo Chang looked away, and simply changed the subject.
Luo Chang was afraid that Luo Shangshu and Luo Guogong would be worried, so he didn't tell the matter, but asked Luo Xi to copy the family rules twice and hand them over to him.
When Luo Chang left, Luo Xi looked at Yang Yan and asked with a smile, "A bosom friend?"
"Naturally!" Faced with Luo Xi's burning eyes, Yang Yan insisted.
The first page of the newspaper is an opera written by Yang Yanxin. The protagonist is still Mr. Yang. He said, "They all say they want to turn into lovebirds and Lian Lizhi. In my opinion, only one confidant is enough in this world."
Although it was a copy of the family rules, but with Yang Yan's help, the two copied it very quickly, and sent it to Luo Chang that night.
On the other hand, Luo Chang, looking at the completely different handwriting of Luo Xi and Yang Yan, felt weird...
That night, Yang Yan stayed in Luo Xi's room again.
The pigeon wanted to warm up in the bed, but was kicked out by Yang Yan, "Go, go, you have your own bed."
The pigeon cooed, aggressively.
As soon as Yang Yan turned around, he met Luo Xi's eyes. Luo Xi took the snack plate to coax the pigeon, and coaxed it away.
Yang Yan took off his clothes and leaned inside.
Luo Xi turned off the light and lay down too.
The surroundings were plunged into darkness, Yang Yan poked Luo Xi's waist, leaned closer and said, "I can't sleep."
The warm breath sprayed on Luo Xi's collarbone, and he grabbed Yang Yan's hand, "Don't touch it randomly."
Although the winter is getting colder, Yang Yan himself is a little angry, "I'm not sleepy at all."
He was vaguely looking forward to something else.
Luo Xi was silent for a moment, "Then shall I tell you a story?"
A bedtime story seems to work too.Besides, Luo Xi didn't know how to coax another person to sleep.
Yang Yan was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He pulled back his hand forcefully, "I don't want to listen to the story."
"Then you are?" Luo Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she had another guess.
Yang Yan snorted, "I just want to sleep now."
Before going to sleep, Yang Yan thought angrily, the closer he was to Luo Xi, the more angry everyone would be, and we'll see who can't help it first.
Luo Xi turned over and held Yang Yan's hand just in time, and Yang Yan leaned towards him.
It snowed again last night, Luo Xi and Yang Yan got up late, they cuddled together, and it took a long time for Yang Yan to leave.
At this time, the eldest prince Lu Xia came to visit Luo Xi.
Luo Xi naturally invited him to sit down and served good tea.
Lu Xia smiled wryly, "Master Luo, long time no see."
Since that palace banquet, Luo Xi has never met the eldest prince again.
Luo Xi looked carefully, but saw several wounds on Lu Xia's forehead.
"Master Luo laughed." Lu Xia slightly pulled down her feather cap, "My sister is getting married, and I've been restless these days. I wanted to tell my father to choose someone else, but instead I offended him."
One of the wounds on the forehead was knocked out while kneeling, and the other was smashed out by the emperor with a teacup.
"This matter has nothing to do with the eldest prince, why should the eldest prince?" Luo Xi was a little puzzled.
Lu Xia shook her head, with a more lonely expression, "When my mother was in charge of the harem, she never disliked my mother and concubine's low status, so my mother and concubine could be buried in the imperial mausoleum, and the daily expenses were never deducted by my mother, sister He has always been kind to my brothers."
The emperor looked down on the concubine's prince, and the only concubine had only one daughter. These brothers and sisters didn't have those calculations, but they showed a little truth.
"Eldest prince Youti siblings," Luo Xi sighed slightly.
It was no wonder that Yue Qingling was willing to choose him. If an emperor could think more about the people below, miss his old love more, and be kind to those around him, officials would be more willing to follow him.
If the eldest prince can succeed... Luo Xi propped his forehead, he can take another look.
"Now I only hate myself for being incompetent," Lu Xia forced a smile with a grim expression on her face, "I hope Mr. Luo will teach me."
"The safest way, of course, is to wait. After many years, if the eldest prince can assume power, he can plan to take Princess Zhaoyang back to the country." Luo Xi said lightly.
Lu Xia shook his head and sighed, "What if I don't want to wait? The envoys from the Yue Kingdom came first, and now the dowry gift from the Yue Kingdom has also arrived. I'm afraid it will be difficult to change the marriage."
The queen is seriously ill, and now the soup and medicine are poured day by day, but it is completely useless.
Lu Qiang stayed in the Jiaofang Hall every day, but it didn't make the queen any better.
Luo Xi was helpless, "If there is no need to make a marriage, it is naturally the best way. If Princess Zhaoyang leaves during the marriage, it will only bring more trouble."
As long as she gets on the bridal sedan chair, Lu Qiang will die, and she can only die in the country of Yue.
Otherwise, once the battle started, Lu Qiang would run away, and there would be no way to settle down in this life, and those people who died because of her would also be dreaming every day at midnight.
Having said that, Luo Xi seriously took out a list, "Princess will need manpower to go to Yue. Most of them are good players who have retreated from the frontier. They are only partially disabled, but their strength is not bad. Now they are about to Back home, if the princess wants to, she can also invite them to go to Yue country together."
Form a small army in the past, there will be some changes in the future, and there will be a way to adapt.
"Thank you, Mr. Luo," Lu Xia also knew that what he said was embarrassing, and it was a surprise to get this list now.
Luo Xi watched Lu Xia leave.
The last time I talked about the return of the soldiers, some people didn’t want to go back. After all, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, and their families are already old, not to mention they are disabled, even if they go back, there will be nothing good.
He calculated that among those who did not want to return home, some soldiers entered his workshop to help make newspapers, some were sent by him to various post stations to act as liaisons, and some were used to protect the caravan. Someone gave it to Princess Zhaoyang.
As for the others, Luo Xi also tried to make arrangements for those who wanted to go back to their hometown, and gave them more silver for them. If the Luo family had a local newspaper shop, they could also be allowed to work in the shop, so that they could make a living at least.
After writing down these contents one by one, Luo Xi handed them to Luo Guogong. Luo Guogong didn't say anything, but just added a sum of money to accommodate the disabled soldiers as much as possible.
In terms of details, Luo Xi also discussed with Luo Guogong.
Suddenly, a bell sounded from the direction of the palace.
Luo Zhi hurried over, her face turned pale, "The empress has passed away."
The red decorations in the mansion have already been removed, and now they need to enter the palace.
"How come?" Luo Xi was taken aback.
When he went to meet Lu Qiang in the palace that day, the queen also met him, and her complexion seemed to be fine at that time, but now it was only a month later.
How could the queen die of illness?
This is what Luo Xi doesn't understand. There is no shortage of medicinal materials and master doctors in the palace. It can be said that it is the most prosperous place.
In the plot, the queen waited until Lu Qiang and her relatives went to Yue to get sick, but now the time has come earlier.
But the imperial doctor said that the queen had been sick since mid-January, and she had been drinking medicine to boil, thinking about Princess Zhaoyang, but unfortunately she caught a cold in the end, and now there is no cure for it.
It is now mid-February.
Luo Xi was busy with family and newspaper affairs, hoping to speed up expansion, and left all the free time for Yang Yan, and didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the palace.
Now that they entered the palace again, everyone in the Luo family went to pay homage to the queen.
At the place where the coffin stopped, Lu Qiang knelt in front of her and wept, while Lu Xia received everyone beside her.
Luo Xi also went to burn incense, and comforted her in a low voice, "My condolences."
Lu Qiang wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and the maid beside her supported her.
Lu Qiang forced a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Luo."
It's hard to say extra words, Luo Xi sighed slightly, and stood a little further away.
Mrs. Wang also rarely entered the palace, she took a look at Lu Qiang, and offered her incense in peace.
In the past, she couldn't understand such a mediocre queen with no talent, but now that the dead is the big one, she also felt a little pity for Lu Qiang.But if she was asked to pay for her own son, that would not work!
The queen passed away, and she stopped working on July 49th. The people are not allowed to have happy events within a year, and the wedding and wife probably have to be delayed.
The maid who had been with the queen for a long time helped Lu Qiang up, "Princess, the empress has not been buried yet, and the princess has three years of filial piety, maybe we will get married..."
There was some longing in the maid's eyes, Lu Qiang suddenly realized, she looked at the queen's spiritual seat, tears streaming down her eyes.
The eldest prince Lu Xia also heard these words, his eyes lit up, and he knelt down towards the emperor next to him, "Imperial father, now that the empress mother has passed away, Princess Zhaoyang is the daughter of the empress mother, so she should also keep her filial piety for the empress."
After delaying for 49 days first, and then three years of filial piety, Lu Qiang is naturally unnecessary for this marriage.
Lu Xia is full of confidence. Give him another three years, and the situation will naturally be different from the past. Maybe they don't need to get married, they can still reach an agreement with the Yue Kingdom.
The emperor had been looking at the queen's spiritual seat all the time, but now he looked away sullenly, looked at Lu Xia, and kicked him, "If the queen sees Zhaoyang getting married, she will be happier, why are you at ease!"
Lu Qiang's face turned pale, and she saluted reluctantly, "Father, can you let me wait until my mother's burial..."
"The auspicious day selected by Qin Tianjian, how can I change it at will?" The emperor looked at Lu Qiang with a little disgust in his eyes, "There is also a folk saying that you get married during the Hundred Days of Filial Piety. After three years, you will be too old. You To kowtow in front of the queen's spiritual throne and get married as soon as possible is considered a filial piety."
Lu Xia was shocked, "Father, the folks are making a 'desert relationship', even for the sake of my sister's reputation, it shouldn't be like this."
The folks get married in a "desert relationship" and marry a daughter while the heat is hot, either because the family is really poor and unwilling to raise it for a few more years, or because there is something wrong with the girl and they are afraid that it will be exposed after a delay.
The emperor slammed a teacup over, "Zhaoyang has the important task of marriage, what could be more important than this?"
The porcelain cup shattered, and some pieces of porcelain splashed onto Lu Xia.
Lu Qiang's face was pale, she looked at the emperor, silent.
The emperor got angry and rushed away angrily. Lu Xia knelt on the ground and didn't move for a long time.
Luo Xi also received tip-offs from other people. Although the specific content is not clear, the fact that the emperor got angry at the eldest prince Lu Xia couldn't be more true.
Now that the queen has died of illness, in order to reduce public opinion, Luo Xi even refreshed the contents of the newspaper a lot.
Although the courtiers said they were going to offer incense and worship, most of the wives of the families went out. Luo Zhi's face was not very good when she came back, "The princess has lost a lot of weight these days."
After her mother passed away, she still had to go to marry her, and some courtiers who urged Lu Qiang became much quieter.
Luo Xi's life is almost the same as before, but he has things on his mind, and now it is more urgent.
The next day, he entered Duke Luo's study, and Duke Luo was taken aback. He was discussing something with his staff, and there was a map spread out on the table.
The people around had been very familiar with Luo Xi for a long time, and they hadn't reported it before, so Luo Xi came in directly.
When the staff saw Luo Xi, they bowed and left on their own initiative.
Luo Xi looked at the map, his eyes lit up.
Ancient times are no better than modern times. Without satellite GPS, Luo Xi has a good understanding of the topography of Jiangnan and Kyoto. Other places are also dark at a glance. At most, he can only know which place produces what from the book, and the specific topography is completely unclear.
Luo Guogong was taken aback, thinking about putting away the map, "How is the homework assigned last time?"
"It's all done," Luo Xi originally wanted to come over to ask a few questions, but now he is staring at the map, "Father, can I have a look?"
Sensing Luo Guogong's daze, Luo Xi realized that what he said was a little sudden, and continued to add, "I just want to know what other places look like."
The author has something to say: After writing this, I suddenly remembered some scumbag quotes: I'm just going to rub...
