"What are you thinking? You're so lost in thought." The echo of the strings has stopped, but the mind of the listener is still wandering, Zhou Yu can't help asking this question.

Lingxiu pulled away from his thoughts, returned to his eyes, and saw the note in his hand, "Zhou Lang, just take a look, what is written on this bamboo slip."

Zhou Yu took the bamboo slips and opened them. The words were earnest, but they were written by Jiao Shaoli, "This is Jiao Zhongqing's letter to Prefect Ling? Lingxiu, what are you giving it to me?"

Lingxiu was silent for a moment, as if he had made a lot of determination, before he spoke, "I want to beg for Jiao Shaoli for my wife, and beg my husband to help them reunite."

"Jiao Shaoli? Could it be... related to this letter?" He didn't understand why Lingxiu pleaded for a stranger for no reason?

"Yes."

Zhou Yu was even more confused, "He submitted this letter to Prefect Ling. If you want to help, it should be Prefect Ling. Why do you ask me?"

"Zhou Lang, if this letter is submitted to Prefect Ling, I'm afraid it will be nothing."

"Why is that?" Lingxiu's words became more and more complicated as he heard them. From the very beginning, she paid so much attention to Jiao Zhongqing, and he felt it was very strange.

"The person that Young Master Ling Heng wants to marry is Jiao Shaoli's divorced wife. Tell me, does Prefect Ling love his son, or is he helping others?" It's the same thing, how many fathers in this world don't protect their son's shortcomings?

"Even so, this is someone else's family business. You and I live here as guests, so why bother?" Taishou Ling treated him with courtesy, but after all, he didn't care about personal affairs. This time, even if he wanted to take care of it and help , I don't have that position either.

"Zhou Lang, compare your heart with your heart. If you and my husband are like this, how can you bear it?" There is also a lot of sympathy. After all, the ending in the poem is too tragic, and the poignant beauty is reserved for others.She still wanted to give it a try, if this ending could be changed, wouldn't she be able to stop facing those life and death partings after ten years?

"Lingxiu, what does this have to do with you and me?"

Lingxiu was at a loss for words for a moment, yes, that was someone else's helplessness, so what did it have to do with her?But that was the swan song she regretted since she was a child, and now it is about to happen in front of her eyes, but she can only look at it like this, "Lingxiu comes from a humble background, and he is not good enough for you. If the secular world blocks you and me, will Zhou Lang stop here?"

"But I can't figure it out, you haven't even met Jiao Zhongqing, why are you helping him like this?"

"Do you remember that I said that I came from a thousand years later? What I read is just a long sad song. Even if it is recited through the ages, it can't match their friendship in this life. Zhou Lang, you can help them .” This is the truth, but I don’t know whether Zhou Yu believes it or not.

"Even if I feel sympathy, are you so sure that I can help them?"

Conscious that things have turned around, Lingxiu smiled halfway, "I believe that as long as the husband is willing, there is nothing that cannot be done." Treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, at least no matter how bad it is, it can't be as bad as the original fate of both of them. Well, since this happened to me, I always wanted to take care of it. If I had to stand by and watch, I really couldn't bear it.

"Madam praises it, but Gong Jin heard it, but it is very useful. Lingxiu, after going to worship at the mother's grave tomorrow, how about you and I going to visit that Jiao Shaoli together?" When she got to this point, if Not agreeing, not only is he ruthless, but also appears a little incompetent.

"You promised?"

"Madam ordered, do you dare not obey?"

Hearing this, Lingxiu wanted to bow his knees and salute, as if he had received a great favor, "So, Lingxiu, on behalf of Jiao Shaoli and his wife, thank you General for your kindness."

Zhou Yu smiled helplessly, Lingxiu asked for love, if his eyes were crying, he really didn't know how to refuse, "I want to help others, why are you so happy?"

Lingxiu smiled slyly, "If you can change history and save the lives of two people, wouldn't you be happy?"

Zhou Yu was really confused, and recalled the sincere words in the post, and sighed regretfully, the separation of such a beloved couple is really emotional.It would be a beautiful thing to help a lover without having to work hard. "Happy, happy~~" Lingxiu leaned on his shoulder, and it took him a while to hear his words of comfort.

On the way back from offering sacrifices to the grave, they passed by a mansion with the word "Liu's Mansion" written on a large plaque. Zhou Yu and Lingxiu saw a crowd of horses and horses coming out of it. The smile seemed to be unable to be concealed, and with a glance, he saw that the other young man whom he flattered and fawned on was none other than the prefect Ling Heng. Judging from the situation, I'm afraid that the marriage that Ling Heng asked for had already been completed.

Lingxiu had a look of surprise on his face, "Isn't that Mr. Ling?" This place is Liu's Mansion, he just said yesterday that he would go to propose a marriage, and he is here today, in such a situation, could it be that the overall situation has been settled?

"It seems that Mr. Ling can't wait for this marriage." Zhou Yu looked at the two people chatting and laughing in front of the door, and said to Lingxiu as if joking.

"You're still laughing, the marriage is settled, so what about Jiao Shaoli?" He was probably naively waiting for the eunuch to reply and help them reunite, but who knows...

"This matter is a foregone conclusion. What's the use of being anxious? Let's go and see what that young official Jiao is planning." Zhou Yu was really not in a hurry.Lingxiu had all sorts of guesses in his mind, but he still didn't ask. Forget it, he must have his own plan. If he wanted to keep it secret, he wouldn't reveal a word no matter how hard he asked.

After several inquiries, the two came to Jiao's house and knocked lightly on the door knocker. After a while, a woman came to open the door, but she only covered half the corner of the door, poking her head out slightly, very defensive. "Who are you two?" Seeing the stranger, although he was dressed brightly, he didn't look like a bad guy, but the woman didn't say much, she just asked her identity directly.

"You are Mrs. Jiao. You were born late and surnamed Zhou, and you are a colleague of Jiao Shaoli. Yesterday, distinguished guests came from the county. Today, I am ordered by the prince of the prefect to come to discuss important matters with Zhongqing. I also ask the old lady for permission." Late students come in." Zhou Yu said slowly, in Lingxiu's eyes, he was talking nonsense seriously.General Zhou, it's okay to lie, it's an expedient measure, but, do you dare to find a more plausible excuse?

Just when Lingxiu felt that the trick was about to be exposed, unexpectedly, the old woman on the opposite side opened the door quickly after hearing this, and said repeatedly, "Oh, then, please come in quickly, follow me."

When the two entered the door, Lingxiu was obviously overwhelmed by Mrs. Jiao's reaction, and couldn't help but looked at her back leading the way and shouted silently in his heart.Please, when did you see someone with a female family member on business?You actually believed such an obvious lie, did you believe it?Or is it that you have been used to caring for your husband and raising your children in this life, and the rest of the world is just a blank sheet of paper.

"Zhongqing~~Zhongqing——" Mrs. Jiao led the two of them to the hall, and began to call for her son.I saw Jiao Zhongqing coming out of the back room with a volume of books in his hand, probably because his mother called him anxiously, so he didn't even put down the book.Because he was at home, he was only dressed in plain clothes, and he looked quite bookish.Although he is very elegant, but seeing that expression, it already shows a bit of cowardice.

"The mother called the child to come, I don't know what it means?" Putting the book next to the table in the hall, Jiao Zhongqing even talked to his mother at home with such self-denial and courtesy.However, at this time, he obviously hadn't noticed that there were two more people in the hall.

"Zhongqing, this young master said that he is your colleague, and he has something important to discuss with you." The old woman waved her hand, and Jiao Zhongqing looked in that direction, only to see Zhou Yu and the two of them.

Although we only met each other on the official road that day, Zhou Yu's elegant demeanor left a deep impression on him. His mother said that he was a colleague, but she didn't expect it to be this noble person. Jiao Zhongqing was about to salute, but Zhou Yu stepped forward to support him , with a wink.

"Zhongqing, you left in a hurry today, the prefect can't delay the important matters, so I came to the house to bother you, don't take offense."

Fortunately, Jiao Zhongqing is also a smart person, and he quickly understands the tricks, "Oh~~ Where, where, naturally the matter of the prefect is important. Brother Zhou, Mrs. Sister-in-law, please, let's discuss the matter in the study."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."
