Lu Linjian and others walked to the stairwell on the second floor. Lu Yuanyuan saw Lu Linjian stopped walking.
He asked, "Brother San, what's wrong?" As soon as Lu Linjian went down to the stairs on the second floor, he heard a familiar female voice saying something about whether he liked it or not...
Hearing the sound of looking for someone, he saw that it was indeed the little lady. She had a sweet smile and kept talking to the man. She looked at the man with bright eyes. She had never seen her so affectionate with another person before.
Lu Linjian's expression suddenly turned cold and he ignored Lu Yuanyuan's question.
Lu Yuanyuan and Wang Yunshan followed his gaze and saw the lovely little lady.
Lu Linjian said that you should go back home first. Lu and Wang felt something was wrong, but they did not dare to respond. They walked slowly and looked back at the situation.
Lu San walked toward the two people. Lu Yuanyuan was about to continue walking downstairs, but someone pulled her sleeves. Wang Yunshan shook her head at her. The two of them were hiding behind the stairs and watching Lu Linjian's movements. .
Lu Linjian looked worried and sneered at himself in his heart. Pei Jian really took his master seriously. A few days ago, he said that this young lady came to Kyoto to find him. I was annoyed that I had foolishly thought about it. Now I saw her sitting across from others with a happy expression. It was like someone slapped me in the face.
Oh, I'm definitely not looking for him, I'm afraid I'm looking for the person opposite her. The manpower left by Yingnan said that she withdrew the Liu family's Geng Tie, how could she find someone else so quickly... Although it was hot summer, Lu Linjian Feeling a general coldness.
Lu Linjian walked up and realized that he also knew this man. Chen Xiu, named Zigu, was the same age as him. When I took the provincial examination with him, his elegant writing style was not favored by the local examiners. I was not awarded an official position, so I only got the title of scholar.
Then he began to write some scripts for the people's entertainment. People said that Chen Zigu was extremely talented, and only Lu Yu could compare with him. It was strange that the examiners back then were ignorant.
Lu Linjian didn't take it seriously. He didn't like the excessive folk entertainment and Chen Xiu's unrestrained writing. This further encouraged the situation, so he also disliked Chen Xiu.
What's more, the literati in Kyoto were not ashamed of Chen Xiu's dissolute behavior and did not serve the country in officialdom. Instead, they wrote some romantic novels among the people and often wrote poems to satirize him. However, Chen Xiu never paid attention to it and went his own way.
Lu Linjian had previously participated in Chen Xiu's smuggling of too many scripts, but the officials only criticized him verbally and did not take any measures. Later, the guy even deliberately used a homophone for his name in the script, but he was too lazy to care about such insignificant things. Things.
At this moment, he saw that this young lady was smiling brightly at someone he didn't like, and her face was even colder.
The young lady was wearing a light green thin shirt, her waist was slender, she seemed to have lost some weight, and the desk was covered with papers.
Liniang was waiting for Chen Xiu's reply, full of earnestness and in a good mood. I saw a person walking over and standing next to him, his body covered in darkness and his cold eyes looking straight at him.
Liniang was surprised and said, "Master Lu?"
Lu Linjian remained silent, Liniang was a little confused, Chen Xiu also looked at Lu Linjian, Lu Yuzhi... what was he doing here.
Then Lu Linjian said to Liniang, "Come with me."
Liniang was confused, but she got up to follow and said to Chen Xiu, "Sir, wait for me for a while."
Lu Linjian snorted in his heart and took Liniang to sit down at the corner of the teahouse.
Liniang didn't know his thoughts and temperament, so she only asked with doubts, "Mr. Lu, what's wrong?"
Lu Lin thought to himself, Mr. Lu... doesn't know why he doesn't like this young lady calling him like this.
Now ask her, "Why did you come to Kyoto?"
Liniang now knew his identity, and it was thanks to his men that he was allowed to enter the capital that day, so she did not dare to deal with it now.
I had no choice but to reply, "My father and mother have been in Kyoto for several years. That day at the Yingnan Inn, I heard you say that those thieves had returned to Kyoto. I wanted to come to Kyoto to explore, and it would be better than sitting here in Yingnan and waiting to be killed..."
Lu Linjian's dark eyes revealed a trace of suspense, "Come to Kyoto to investigate? Don't you know that I am investigating this case? Why don't you come to me directly?"
Liniang saw him questioning him like he was eating a firecracker, who made him unhappy... why was he in such a bad mood.
Liniang replied, "I heard someone said that you are investigating private cases involving officials. As a commoner, how can I be qualified to participate..."
Lu Linjian's anger gradually faded, but he said unforgivingly, "I'm afraid it will be more dangerous for you to come to Kyoto, but can you reveal the news to others? Act carefully in Kyoto, don't die in vain."
Liniang secretly wondered why the words of the children of these aristocratic families were so thorny, and why they were so unpleasant to listen to. She was unconvinced but did not dare to speak.
She always remembered her identity and didn't want the powerful people to cause trouble for her, so she just said like a piece of wood, "Well..."
Lu Linjian was so angry when he saw her. It was obvious that when he was talking to Chen Xiu just now, he was chattering like a bird, but when he came to his place, he was as reserved as a tortoise.
Then he asked, "What is your relationship with that Chen Xiu? He is from Jiangling in the south. Could it be that you have known each other before?"
Liniang denied, "No, Mr. Chen misunderstood. Mr. Chen and I only met a few days ago. We have nothing to do with each other, but our words were speculative." I don't know why he asked these questions. He seemed to know Mr. Chen too. Could it be for Ask him about it.
Lu Linjian finally felt as if his heart had been calmed down. After asking Liniang where he lived, he said, "Don't make any inquiries about your parents. There are spies in Kyoto, and you have no defense. If you accidentally alert those thieves, , let them find out that you are still alive, and they will come back to kill you if you fail to save them."
I wanted to say a few more words, but I saw the two people hiding in the stairwell and peeking. They told Liniang that they had something to do and left.
When Lu Yuanyuan saw Third Brother coming, she hurriedly pulled Wang Yunshan away. The two of them ran downstairs and pretended to have snacks when they saw Lu Linjian coming down.
"Brother San, we wanted to walk, but the snacks in this teahouse are so delicious. Sister Yunshan and I couldn't walk after eating them."
When Lu Linjian saw that his little sister didn't have three hundred taels of silver, he snorted and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of your mother." He walked away with a flick of his sleeves.
Wang Yunshan looked at his clear figure and fell into deep thought, "Yuanyuan, have you seen that woman before? Why have I never seen her before? The third young master seems to be very familiar with her."
Lu Yuanyuan shook her head in confusion, "I've never seen it before. I saw Brother San's eyes were really strange. I've never seen him lose his temper like this before, and he took the initiative to talk to another girl. It's really strange."
Wang Yunshan fell into a strong sense of crisis, and jealousy arose in her heart. Young Master Lu San did seem to have some differences with that woman. She had to find a way to find out...
Here Liniang talked with Lu Linjian and then returned to Chen Xiu. When she looked at Chen Xiu, she didn't think he was weird anymore, she just felt that he was very friendly and pleasing to the eye.
Chen Xiu was writing on the paper at the moment. Liniang was at the side and did not disturb him, just waiting for him to finish writing.
He couldn't wait to speak and said, "Have you finished writing? Let me have a look."
Chen Xiudi and her are the final chapter of "The Story of the Cantonese Orioles". The male and female characters go through hardships and finally get married.
Liniang was moved after reading it, and her eyes filled with water.
Chen Xiu wondered why this little lady changed so quickly. She was smiling with him in the front, but now she was about to cry.
He hurriedly said, "Madam, it's not that bad, is it?"
Liniang burst into tears and said with a smile, "Sir, your writing is so good! The story is full of twists and turns, with thousands of twists and turns. People will never forget it after reading it!"
Chen Xiu was also happy after hearing this. It was rare to meet a confidant to discuss the plot with him. Those stinky literati always said that he wrote some obscene books and was sad.
The two of them met so late that they chatted for a long time in the teahouse.
