Chapter 53 Who's more ruthless

Eating, sometimes eating is a kind of mood.

There are five people at a table with different moods.

Li Da was really looking forward to this cleansing banquet, after all Li Xunhuan had been away from home for four years, he wanted to ask his younger brother a lot of questions, such as whether he was bullied or not.However, after seeing Long Xiaoyun, he swallowed all those questions, and had to admit that his stupid brother had such a personality because of his educational mistakes.

Li Da was seven years older than Li Xunhuan, the mother of the two brothers died young, and his father was busy with official duties, it can be said that Li Da was the eldest brother who brought up Li Xunhuan like a father.

Knowing that his body is weak, Li Da does not want to restrain his younger brother too much, but only hopes that his character is good, and he can not lose the reputation of the Li family in terms of talent and learning, so he will arrange a marriage for his younger brother who knows everything from his childhood.In this way, the younger brother's life can live up to its name, and he can find the happiness that is difficult for ordinary people to find.

From the point of view of ordinary people, Li Xunhuan has done a good job. He is full of economics and high school at a young age. He is broad-minded and not like some officials' children who bully others.

However, when Li Da listened to Li Xunhuan's smiling recounting of how Long Xiaoyun saved him from danger, he became more and more aware that the most important word scheming was missing from the previous teachings to his younger brother.

After Li Xunhuan finished talking about how he and Long Xiaoyun became friends of eight worshippers in a cheerful tone, Li Da smiled and raised his wine glass to offer a toast to Long Xiaoyun, "I will drink this glass first as a respect, thank you very much." Among them, you must not refuse, as the eldest brother, I should thank you for your kindness to the younger brother's rebirth."

Long Xiaoyun hurriedly said that he didn't dare to take it, how could he sit down and receive a salute, but he quickly stood up and gave him a glass of wine in return. "There is no reason to stand idly by when the road is rough. Saving people is just out of the heart. I hit it off with Xun Huan immediately, and in my heart I want to respect Xun Huan's elder brother as a real brother. This cup is a tribute to the fate of meeting in this life. "

I saw Li laughing in response to Long Xiaoyun's words, and Li Xunhuan was more than happy for his elder brother to accept his friends, making the atmosphere at the dinner table extremely happy for a while.

A respectful grace?Another respect is like meeting a real brother?

Lou Jingmo watched this scene happily.Li Da didn't lie, he probably wanted to teach Li Xun Huan how to behave again.Long Xiaoyun didn't lie, but rather than treating Li Xunhuan's elder brother as his elder brother, he probably wanted to recognize other family members.

Dare to press a throwing knife and there will be a good show soon, Lou Jingmo thought about it and served Lin Shiyin who was a little distracted, and seeing Lin Shiyin's absent-minded expression, perhaps it was never the only one who needed to be changed.

After the luncheon was over, Li Da would go to court tomorrow, so he left for the capital without staying in the carriage.

Li Xunhuan took Long Xiaoyun to arrange for him to stay overnight in Li Garden. Lin Shiyin looked at the empty path in the courtyard. .

"Sister Shiyin, you can cry if you want to. It's normal for you to feel wronged. Li Er did something wrong today." Lou Jingmo didn't persuade Lin Shiyin to endure it. It would be better if Lin Shiyin could go and scold Li Xunhuan. good.

"At the beginning when my cousin was learning martial arts, he said that he would protect me when we went to the mountains and rivers together, unlike when we were young when we went out together and had to follow a group of guards. However, four years ago, when he was successful in martial arts, he decided to go alone. It's just because I feel that I can't protect me well on the road of experience."

Lin Shiyin recalled the four years of waiting. In the past, she and Li Xunhuan could talk about everything in poetry, books and scriptures, but since Li Xunhuan practiced martial arts and she didn't like Jianghu affairs, the common topics between the two of them were much less. How could she be self-willed? Li Xunhuan must take her on the trip together.

"I waited and waited and finally waited for my cousin to return home. He was happily preparing for the dust-cleaning banquet, but he only had that Long Xiaoyun in his eyes since he started! I never asked my cousin to put me first, It's only natural for him to respect his father, brother and relatives first, but what is that Long Xiaoyun!"

Lin Shiyin stopped speaking suddenly, she knew she had made a mistake, Long Xiaoyun saved Li Xunhuan's life after all.

Lou Jingmo wiped away the tears on Lin Shiyin's face with a handkerchief.Li Xunhuan certainly wouldn't ignore Lin Shiyin on purpose, he was just used to Lin Shiyin's non-controversial and non-provocative nature during this relationship, and on this point, Lin Shiyin couldn't say that he was completely right.

"Sister Shiyin, do you seriously think about your future life? The possibility of Li Er becoming an official is extremely low. You originally wanted to live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes. When you are interested, you come to see the mountains and rivers. When you are tired, you can enjoy flowers and snow at home.

Even if you don't lack such financial resources, do you think you can really live your life like this?You may not find it boring, but is it okay to see the lively Li Er? "

Lou Jingmo didn't intend to say these things at first, she and Lin Shiyin just knew each other, and they didn't reach the point where they could speak out about each other's feelings and attitudes.

Lin Shiyin and Li Xunhuan's childhood sweetheart grew up together. The two may have different attitudes towards life, but if they have some time to get along, there will be no major problems, and even if there are problems, Li Da will reconcile them.However, with the variable Long Xiaoyun now appearing, Lou Jingmo still opened his mouth to say a few words, hoping that Lin Shiyin would not be stupid.

Lin Shiyin's expression turned even worse when she heard the words, she wasn't stupid but she just didn't want to think deeply, she just hoped that a lifetime with Li Xunhuan would be enough. "Cousin, he won't let me down. I'm sure he will only have me."

"Maybe. Maybe a person can only love one person in his life, but that doesn't mean that two people who love each other can live happily ever after."

Lou Jingmo does not doubt Li Xunhuan's loyalty to Lin Shiyin, but love is not enough in life.Li Xun Huan's performance today is enough to show that he values ​​brotherhood. When it comes time to choose one of the two, it's really hard to say which side he will choose. It's better not to scare Lin Shiyin with these words.

"Li Er has a flying knife, and if he wants to see the world, he has to go for it. Sister Shiyin, what about you? What do you have, and what do you want? People live in the world, first of all, don't let yourself down. At least choose Do the same thing that you are interested in, and Li Er will go to the rivers and lakes to play in the future, so you won't be too bored."

Lou Jingmo had an appointment with Du Qing, and didn't have much free time to stay in Li Yuan to teach Lin Shiyin, so he simply took him to the capital to let her have a quiet time, anyway, Li Xunhuan has no time to entertain Long Xiaoyun these days Say love.All the suggestions that should be said have been said, as for the next step, it only depends on whether Lin Shiyin is willing to change.

With Li Da around, it would not be difficult for Lin Shiyin and Li Xunhuan to intervene in the matter.However, the meeting with Du Qing was not that simple.

In April, the peach blossoms of the mountain temple begin to bloom.

At Qinglian Temple in the suburbs of Beijing, under the peach blossom tree, Lou Jingmo saw Du Qing who was walking slowly.As Li Da said, Du Qingnian is nearly thirty, like a cloud in the distant mountains, elegant and beautiful, and the eyebrows are more calm and unhurried. "Sure enough, it is better to be famous than to meet. Xue Laocheng does not deceive me. Mr. Du is worse than blue than blue."

"To each other, I have always wanted to meet Mr. Lou and express my admiration. Xiaolou's achievements in spring have lasted for thousands of years. After many generations, the world will not remember the changes in the world, but they will never forget who wrote a medical book. People in the world can suffer less from illness and pain.”

Du Qing stretched out his hand to ask Lou Jingmo to take a seat in the gazebo, the two exchanged pleasantries, and got straight to the point.

"Mr. Lou is busy with affairs, so I will speak directly. Qingmen has always been responsible for maintaining the balance between the temple and the rivers and lakes. However, Ming suffered heavy losses in the battle of Tumubao. Half of the order in the door. This special invitation to Mr. Lou to Beijing is to hope that our cooperation can be closer."

Lou Jingmo knew all these things, but what she didn't expect was Du Qing's next proposal.

I only heard Du Qing say, "Qingmen may have a deputy commander, but the position of commander is not a non-established one, because most of the past dynasties obeyed the emperor's orders. Today, what I want to say is to invite Mr. Lou to be the commander, and you will appoint him." Qingmen’s important position is in charge, only in this way can we really cooperate closely.”

Bullshit!

Lou Jingmo's first reaction was that Du Qing deliberately found trouble for her. Since the Qingmen directly obeyed the emperor's orders in the past, it would not be the same as treason if the emperor issued a letter of appointment and the Qingmen elected the leader themselves.

"Mr. Du, Lou has no big ambitions. He just wants to do business according to his duties, write medical books quietly, and practice medicine in all directions when he is free."

Lou Jingmo didn't really scold Du Qing for being mentally ill, she understood the complexity in a flash.

Regardless of what is recorded in the official history, in this world since he ascended the throne eight years ago, Concubine Wan Gui, who is 17 years older than him, is the only favorite in this world. Concubine Wan Gui single-handedly promoted Wang Zhi to establish the West Factory. party.

No one in the harem dared to compete with Concubine Wan Gui, and the emperor has no children.Decades ago, the Tumu Fort changed, and the matter of brother succession was still in sight. Now, Japanese pirates invaded the border from time to time in the east, and the Tatars in the north would provoke war again. The unknown trend of the court forces smart people to plan ahead.

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. In order not to be blown by the strong wind, we can only fend for ourselves. This is also Xue Lao's last wish. I hope that Qingmen will lead the world with martial arts, benevolence and righteousness, and the most important thing is to help the overall situation. The new emperor."

Du Qing never thought that he would be able to convince Lou Jingmo with just a few words. This kind of thing needs to be tested again and again to reach an agreement, just as it is not the time to show his hole cards.

"This matter can be discussed in the long term. Mr. Lou still has several years to consider. Whether it is successful or not, I am happy to meet today. To show my sincerity, I would like to ask Mr. Lou to accept this information. It is not a precious thing, that is, With the trace of a person, it is said that she has a [-]% chance of finding the ruins of Happy City."

Lou Jingmo looked at the thin envelope on the stone table, Du Qing's gift was really on point, the wish she wanted most to fulfill was to find the bones of her parents for Wang Lianhua.

"Thank you, Mr. Du, then I will take your kindness without hesitation."

Lou Jingmo didn't refuse, she knew that Du Qing would definitely investigate her past, just as she also wanted to find out who she was cooperating with.It's one thing not to want to easily get involved in the court battle, but she will never be timid because of this, and she dare not even accept a gift. "If I can find the site of Happy City without breaking the principle, I can do Mr. Du a favor."

Du Qing shook his head and didn't care about such a promise, and just watched Lou Jingmo leave Qinglian Temple.When she was the only one left under the peach blossom tree, she slowly took out a paper ball from the sachet, spread out the paper ball, and there was an ancient silver pendant drawing on it. "Variation starts, purple moves slightly, this is God's will. God's will is irreversible."

----

"Damn it, I can't bear to betray his sincerity!!!"

After Li Da finished reading the letter, he was so angry that he threw it on the ground and stomped on it a few times. It was the pen, ink and paper that had not finished venting his anger and then waved his sleeve and dropped it on the floor.In the end, the porcelain cup on the desk was not spared, and he angrily threw it at the door.

Lou Jingmo only heard the sound of crackling and cracking at her feet, and she reacted quickly enough not to get a little bit of hot water in the cup, but she didn't know what caused Li Da to be so angry.

But I haven't seen her for ten days, she was busy with the affairs of going west to the desert, and she didn't hear that anyone in the court tried to trick Li Da, how could Li Da be as angry as a puffer fish. "Brother Li, if you don't want me to leave the capital, you don't have to use the trick of showing off your anger to keep me."

Li Da took several deep breaths and still couldn't calm down. He couldn't say what happened, he just picked up Li Xunhuan's letter and let Lou Jingmo read it by himself.

In the letter, Li Xunhuan said that he encountered a very embarrassing thing.Long Xiaoyun suddenly became seriously ill for some unknown reason, and several doctors said that he was a medicine in vain, and that his heart disease needed heart medicine to heal.

Long Xiaoyun was reluctant to disclose the cause of the disease, until Li Xunhuan heard her call out Lin Shiyin's name when Long Xiaoyun was confused.Only then did I know that Long Xiao fell in love with Lin Shiyin at first sight, and Li Xunhuan never said in advance that he had a marriage contract with his cousin.

Now Long Xiaoyun is suffering from lovesickness, so sick that he can't afford it anymore, finally hesitantly confides to Li Xunhuan his love for Lin Shiyin, hoping that Li Xunhuan can make it happen.

Li Xunhuan wrote that Long Xiaoyun had saved his life, so of course Long Xiaoyun couldn't die because of this, he wanted to ask Lou Jingmo to go to Li Yuan for consultation first.If Long Xiaoyun's heart disease died, he would not be able to live a sweet life with Lin Shiyin with peace of mind.

"Why do you think he is so stupid? How can I have such a stupid brother?"

Li Da was pacing back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back. He really didn't expect his younger brother to be so stupid. "If Long Xiaoyun really regards him as a good friend, even if he senses that his heart is hard to break, he will take the initiative to stay away. How could he be so cheeky and ask for it. Long Xiaoyun didn't know that idiot had a marriage contract with his little cousin. But can't you tell who the little cousin likes!"

It still came.

What Li Da said is not bad at all, just like Ji Bingyan went to the desert and never confided the inside story to Hu Tiehua, just hoping that their brotherhood would not be deteriorated by the third person.What Long Xiaoyun did could be called brotherhood.

Lou Jingmo put down the letter that was stamped with shoe prints, first pushed Li Da on the chair and gave him a few injections, but he couldn't let Li Dazhen get so angry that he hurt himself.

"Calm down, it's okay if you don't calm down, it's best for you to take care of this matter. In fact, you know in your heart that the conflict between Sister Shiyin and Li Er is not just Long Xiaoyun, Long Xiaoyun is the introduction to point out their conflicts It exploded. This incident is a hurdle, and they need to face up to the fundamental problem. Only by making changes in both phases can they really live a peaceful and beautiful life as you wish."

Li Da has calmed down. He has never married a wife because of his weak health. It is still unknown whether he can be equal to others in this life.I always just wanted my brother to live a good life, not asking him to hold power, but only asking him to be a wife and a filial son. Such a simple wish has been messed up.

"They say it's the son's fault for not being filial to his father. It's my fault that my younger brother is so stupid. I'm too soft-hearted."

Li Dabei said angrily and closed his eyes, and when Lou Jingmo stopped the needle, he opened his eyes again without any anger, "I'm afraid it will really delay your westward journey, please follow me to Li Garden to give Long Xiaoyun Ask a doctor. You can just prescribe those medicines that clear the mind and qi, and I will take the harsh medicines. Don’t tell my little cousin about this in advance, and let her stay quietly in Xiaolouchun’s branch library for a few days.”

As for how Li Da will make a tough fight?

At nightfall, Lou Jingmo drove a carriage into Baoding Li Garden, and woke up Long Xiaoyun with a pair of refreshing medicine.

Li Da personally put a pillow behind Long Xiaoyun so that he could sit half-sitting and talk properly.

"I already know all about the true feelings of Fourth Master Long. However, marriage matters are the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. The little brother has a father and brother, so he can't be the master. He can't be his own master, nor can he be the cousin's master. The ones who can make the decisions are me and my father."

Li Da said, looking at Li Xunhuan who looked at him with distressed eyes, "I'm afraid my younger brother never mentioned that he and his cousin had a marriage contract, which was established by my father and me many years ago. The Li family can't do such a thing. , even if it is to repay the kindness of saving lives."

"Xunhuan, why didn't you tell me earlier that you and Shiyin had an engagement?"

Long Xiaoyun seemed very surprised when he heard the words, coughed anxiously and wheezingly while speaking, before Li Xunhuan could say anything, Lou Jingmo first sealed Long Xiaoyun's Ren and Du veins with seven needles, allowing him to instantly I can't feel my inner strength flowing.

"Fourth Master Long, please calm down. Your illness is very serious, so it's not easy to act rashly. You should take a good rest."

Lou Jingmo glanced lightly at Long Xiaoyun who was about to question him, she was not lying, Long Xiaoyun was seriously ill, and Li Xunhuan said that there was a possibility of death from lovesickness. "Please also cooperate with my treatment. It is better for patients to be more obedient."

Long Xiaoyun immediately understood Lou Jingmo's eyes, if he shut up if he was disobedient, it might not just be that he couldn't move his inner strength temporarily.

Li Da raised a hand to signal Li Xun Huan not to speak, he stood up and bowed deeply to Long Xiaoyun.

"The Li family is definitely not an ungrateful generation. Fourth Master Long has saved my younger brother's life, and I can't betray my friendship with the Lin family because of this. In this way, I will exchange my life for kindness. The elder brother is a father, and I should do it for my younger brother. make a decision."

Li Da finished speaking and looked at Lou Jingmo, his guards had already brought the whip and handed it to Lou Jingmo.

"Fourth Master Long is injured and cannot do anything, this matter can only make things difficult for Xiaoyan. You don't have to hold back your hands, you don't have to hold back your hands. The younger brother was injured badly before, so you can leave me with as many injuries as I want. His life equals Fourth Master Long's life-saving grace to my younger brother."

"Brother! What are you doing!" Li Xunhuan stood in front of Da Li as he said that. He didn't expect that a letter would change the situation.

"What's wrong with my approach? You are in a dilemma, and it's difficult to balance your friendship. As a brother, I never have the heart to make things difficult for you, let alone hurt you, and make you repay the grace of saving your life."

Li Da looked at Li Xun Huan and showed a gentle smile, "Then I can only replace you with my body, just like I have done my best to protect you from the wind and rain these years, it has been like this in the past, it is like this today, and it will be like this in the future. Brother blood is hard to bear in this life." There is an afterlife. You don’t have to be sad, it’s all my own will.”

Li Da said and looked at Long Xiaoyun, compared to understanding Li Xunhuan, who could be better than his own brother.What's the use of whipping Li Xun Huan? If Li Xun Huan had to learn from the pain and change his temper, the whip would only fall on him, and no one in the world would use bitter tricks.However, this time Long Xiaoyun dared to take advantage of the Li family. When this matter is over, he will definitely ruin Long Xiaoyun's reputation and never recover.

"Xiao Yan, let's do it."
