?The coachman knew the way, and soon came to the prefect's mansion. At that time, he saw the prefect's wife and the young master waiting in front of the main gate with the servants.Zhou Yu lifted the curtain of the car, and everyone got off their horses and left the car one after another. Xun'er was already awake, held by Lan Xi, and cried a few times from time to time, but he didn't make much trouble.Lingxiu looked up at the magnificence of the prefect's mansion, and once again began to lament the luxury of the ancients. If it were in modern times, the house with a hundred acres would be a proper corruption.Hey, who said that the population was small in ancient times, and housing was not tight.

The prefect's wife and the young master came forward to greet him, and saluted respectfully, "I was ordered by the prefect to bring my son Ling Heng here to wait for General Zhou and his wife."

"Get up quickly, madam, son. There is no need to be polite. Gongjin's visit to his hometown is just a sojourn. If it takes a lot of trouble, it will make me feel uneasy." He came here in private, not wanting the prefect of Lujiang to know about him. The whereabouts, so well arranged, I think this is probably thanks to the lord who is far away in the county capital.He appreciated this friendship, but he provoked the always upright and honest Prefect Ling to treat him with a feast, but it was still not what he wanted. When he was away from home, everything was easy and good.

Zhou Yu glanced around, wondering why the little official was invited by Prefect Ling, but why only his wife and son were here? "Ma'am, son, here, why don't you see Prefect Ling?"

"My father originally wanted to greet the general in person, but it happened to be a business trip and he had to leave Lujiang for a few days, so I ordered my mother and son to show the friendship of the landlord on his behalf. If there is anything wrong this time, I hope the general will forgive me." Ling Heng Humble and courteous, he looks like a wealthy son of a wealthy family.

"Where is it? It's our husband and wife who disturbed it."

"General Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, don't stand outside the door, please come in." Madam Ling stretched out her hand towards the door, inviting the distinguished guests to come in.

Zhou Yu and his wife nodded, and followed the mother and son into the door. Madam Ling had other matters to order, and Ling Heng took them to settle down in the mansion first.The curved corridors in the mansion are full of different scenery everywhere. Lingxiu came here and became more and more familiar with the architecture of the Han Dynasty. As Ling Heng went all the way, she suddenly remembered the doubts she had when she came here.

"Mr. Ling, why didn't you see that young official Jiao who was passing the message on the official road when you came here?" As soon as the words came out, Lingxiu began to feel that it seemed too abrupt to ask such a question. With her identity, she asked a little official whom she had never met before. It seems a little, um~~ weird.Sure enough, Mr. Ling tilted his head,

"Why did Madam suddenly ask about Jiao Shaoli?" Could it be that Jiao Zhongqing still knew such nobles as General Zhou?

"This...I..." Lingxiu began to regret, curiosity killed the cat, and now he didn't know how to make it right.

"Madam was just curious for a moment. The young official Jiao said he would guide us, but now we came to the mansion by ourselves, but he disappeared." Zhou Yu began to smooth things over for the spiritual practice, but she also wondered why she would ask An insignificant person comes.

Mr. Ling smiled, General Zhou and his wife really wanted to interrogate every matter, big and small, thanks to his father's integrity, otherwise the general would lose his official position if he came here. "Oh~~ So that's the case. Jiao Shaoli went back to the city to inform the general of his intentions, and Ling Heng hurriedly made arrangements according to the general's instructions. Now there is still a backlog of official documents in the government office, and Jiao Shaoli has returned to the yamen to work."

After hearing Ling Heng's answer, Lingxiu didn't feel the surprise in her heart lessened a bit. After all, she really didn't know how to word what she really wanted to ask, but in this situation, she had to smile politely as a gesture.I felt extremely embarrassed in my heart, and I wondered if Zhou Yu would ask the question again later.

"General, madam, the East Wing is just ahead, you two, please follow me." Ling Heng was about to take a step when he heard someone shouting "Young Master" in the distance, and that person had already come in front of him while speaking. "How loud is the noise in the palace! Didn't you see that there are distinguished guests here?" Ling Heng's tone was stern, as if he was reprimanded.

"Mr. Ling, don't get angry. He might have something important to report, let's just listen to what he has to say." Zhou Yu persuaded, thinking that if something important happened, he, an uninvited guest, would not be able to delay it.

"What's the matter?" Ling Heng glanced at the man, still seemed to be disdainful, and felt that the man was very disrespectful to the distinguished guest by reporting at this time.

The servant took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve, "My lord, Jiao Shaoli said that he would present this letter to the prefect, I don't know..."

"Father is not here, you can just put this letter in his study, go down first." The servant hurriedly retreated, and Ling Heng's expression softened, and he bowed his hands to Zhou Yu and said, "The servant is rude, the general laughed .”

Ling Heng continued to lead the way. At this time, Lingxiu had a secret plan in his heart, but this time, I am afraid that she should discredit the identity of the dignified general's wife again.

After settling down the personnel and carriages, and seeing Xun'er start to sleep soundly again, Lingxiu found an excuse to slip out of the room silently, followed the path in memory to the study, and tiptoedly opened the door to enter, but he couldn't hear him far away. A familiar voice came from everywhere.

"Mrs. Zhou——" Ling Heng walked slowly, wondering why Mrs. Zhou came to his father's study.

"Ah? Mr. Ling, why are you here?" Lingxiu yelled in his heart, why didn't he just leave after leading the way?Now that she appeared here again, how could she act like this?

Ling Heng looked puzzled, "That's exactly what I want to ask Madam, this is my father's study, Madam, you..."

"The study... Oh, yes, the study." Fortunately, I have been with Zhou Yu for a long time, and I can occasionally get a quick wit. "I'm so busy these days, I want to come here to borrow some books." , can be diligent and studious, this is not wrong.

"Borrowing books? Madame wants to read books, and she still comes here to borrow them. Doesn't General Zhou have any books?"

"This..." Lingxiu was depressed. Does anyone take a lot of books with him when he travels far away?However, she really didn’t know whether Zhou Yu had brought books with her, and she never cared about them. “Young Master Ling, I don’t know. My Zhou Lang has a habit of burning a book every time he reads it. He said he had remembered it. In my heart, I don’t need to waste too much space, but he has remembered that the study is empty, and I can’t see anything. Now, I can’t ask him to recite it to me every word. No, I’m here to bother you, if What an inconvenience, then Lingxiu will leave now." After speaking, Lingxiu turned around and was about to leave.

Mr. Ling thought for a moment, "Mrs. Zhou stay behind - the general and his wife are distinguished guests. If they refuse to borrow even a book, it is because Ling Heng is negligent."

Lingxiu only felt that God was helping me, so he couldn't help being overjoyed, and slightly bowed his knees to salute, "That's it, thank you, Mr. Ling."

"Madam, please go ahead, Ling Heng will not disturb you."

Seeing Mr. Ling was about to leave, Lingxiu stopped him, because she seemed to have found many doubts along the way, "Hey, Mr. Ling, wait a minute—"

"What else is there, ma'am?"

Lingxiu calmed down his slightly agitated emotions before, and then said calmly, "It's nothing serious, just watching the lanterns and festoons in the mansion, I wonder if there will be any happy event?"

Ling Heng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a little shy, "My mother promised to propose a marriage for me, and this in the house is to prepare for Ling Heng's lifelong event."

"Oh? I don't know which girl is so lucky to be favored by the prefect?"

Ling Heng smiled slightly, "Liu Lanzhi." He uttered the words lightly, but Lingxiu couldn't help being surprised again, and he didn't know if there was any difference in his expression.

"Then... Congratulations, Mr. Ling." With a smile on her face, she was deeply worried. The name was so familiar that she seemed to have returned to the middle school class back then. If not this time, will she be a witness to another tragedy?

Quietly back to the room, Zhou Yu is playing the piano at this time, the melody of the piano is far away, she leans against the window, just listening, listening to the sad sound in the music, at this moment, what she thinks of is not her own leaving home, but others who may become The lament of fact.She began to admire herself, the future is still uncertain, and she doesn't know whether it will be sorrow or joy in the future, but now she has the mind to take care of other people's separation and reunion.

At the end of the song, I saw Lingxiu was lost in thought alone, holding a scroll of bamboo slips in his hand.Zhou Yu stood up and walked to Lingxiu, "What are you thinking about? You're so preoccupied."?
