Chapter 91 Chu and Cui Fanyi(1/2)
Chapter 91 Chu, Cui Fanyi
On the official road, a gray-topped carriage is coming from afar.
The sky was gloomy, and another drop of raindrops fell on my face. Looking at the long mountain road in front of the village and behind the village, the coachman was anxious and turned around and asked for instructions: "Second Young Master, girl, it seems that it is going to rain heavily. Let's find a place to shelter from the rain?"
The curtain of the car was lifted open, Cui Lu poked his head out, looked at the sky and said, "Well, Uncle Li, look at it, we can hide first if there is a place to shelter from the rain."
Uncle Li said happily, raised his whip in his hand, and the carriage ran faster.
Cui Xiao sat quietly inside. Seeing that her second brother had lowered the curtains, she also withdrew her gaze and whispered: "I hope the rain will stop quickly, don't delay our trip."
Come to the capital quickly and get some rest. �
When she read books, she envied the golfers who traveled around from all over the world. She really took a carriage out of the house. She realized that there were many inconveniences on the road, and she was not as casual as she imagined.
Cui Lu looked at his sister's thinner face and whispered: "Don't worry, it will be here in two days at most. Then we will go directly to A Jin and let her treat us well.
By the way, do you think I'm losing weight than when I went out?
It’s really a struggle to go out for a long trip. No, I have to live in the capital for a few more days, get fat after eating enough, and go back. Didn’t A Jin say that the food and food in Taibailou are delicious? Let’s go there first, and there is also…”
Cui Xiao looked at him helplessly and didn't want to say anything.
Women regard thinness as beauty. Even if men don’t care as much about fatness as women, they definitely don’t want them to be too fat. Only her good second brother is looking forward to getting back that fat body as soon as possible, and he doesn’t know what he is thinking.
She was too lazy to listen, Cui Lu preferred to say that until the carriage was parked in front of a pavilion.
The pavilion is quite big, but the roof is covered with thick straw, which adds a bit of desolation when the wind and rain come in the wilderness.
But it would be nice to have a place to shelter from the rain at this time. Seeing that the raindrops were getting denser, Cui Lu quickly jumped off the carriage and held an umbrella to help his sister down.
There is also a thatched shed behind the pavilion, and the coachman took his horse to shelter from the rain.
There was a cushion in the carriage. Cui Lu took it down and spread it on the bench for his sister to sit. He sat aside and talked to his sister. As he spoke, he saw his sister looking at the distant mountain and was in a daze. Cui Lu obediently shut up, moved to the pillar and leaned forward, closing his eyes to rest.
He knew a little about his daughter's family's concerns, but he didn't know how to persuade him.
The rain gradually became heavier, woven into a foggy curtain, and the nearby mountains turned into vague shadows.
The wind was blowing with raindrops, falling on my face, and it was a little cold.
Cui Xiao's heart was also cold.
I am used to receiving Qi Heng's letter every month. I am used to hiding in the house quietly after receiving the letter, and looking for him first. But suddenly I couldn't find it, and her heart suddenly sank.
Why didn’t Qi Heng write a letter? Is it because he forgot to write too much, or something happened, or is it because he didn’t want to write it?
Cui Xiao had a vague guess, as if the day she had been afraid of finally came.
She didn't dare to ask Xu Jin, and just wanted to wait silently at home. After the three-year appointment, she would know how he chose her.
But she obviously overestimated herself, and her mind was full of Qi Heng. She was so tormented that she couldn't sleep at night and could not deal with it calmly.
She begged her second brother to take her to the capital because she wanted to know the result as soon as possible, wanted to listen to Qi Heng's words in person, and wanted to see him again.
She really missed him. He was so beautiful that his eyes would smile every time he saw her, so even if Qi Heng didn't say it, she knew how much he liked her in his heart.
But why did he suddenly stop writing?
Really, can't be together?
Cui Xiao cried silently, afraid that her second brother would hear the movement, so she didn't dare to raise her hand to wipe it, letting tears gather on her chin, and then flow down her neck...
"drive!"
A full of breath suddenly penetrated the rain curtain, followed by a rapid sound of horse hooves, approaching quickly, sounding like beating drums.
Cui Xiao's heart thrilled, and she quickly wiped her tears with a veil. She returned to her side as soon as she wiped Cui Lu.
"Don't be afraid, you should be in a hurry to shelter from the rain."
Cui Lu pretended not to see his sister's red eyes and comforted her calmly. After saying that, he raised his eyes and looked at the entrance of the road, with a natural and easy-going smile on his face, calm and composed.
Cui Xiao was grateful for her second brother's considerateness, so she quickly suppressed her regret and turned around to avoid being seen by someone on the face.
When she went out, she wore men's clothes, but when the distance was close, a discerning person could still see her identity.
The sound of horse hooves suddenly slowed down for a moment, and then eight horses rushed towards the pavilion surrounded by two inconspicuous carriages.
Cui Lu glanced at the eight people quickly, and his mind was shaking when his eyes flew over their waists.
With such a style, people come either rich or noble, and he moved to his sister without any trace.
Cui Xiao also saw it and grabbed her cuffs nervously.
The carriage outside the pavilion stopped steadily, Zheng De jumped out of the carriage and said with an umbrella: "Your Highness, there is a pavilion here. Do you want to sit in it for a while?"
In the car, Chu Zhen opened his eyes and sat up slowly. Without saying a word, he picked up the curtain.
Zheng De quickly brought the umbrella over and protected him from the car.
"Please go to the pavilion to sit with you, and the others go there."
Chu Zhen glanced around, ordered calmly, and then stepped aside.
Afterwards, Doctor Lu got out of the car, he made a "please" gesture and then walked towards the pavilion.
Zheng De quickly followed, covering most of the umbrella above Chu Zhen's head, allowing half of his body to be completely washed by the rain.
There were steps outside the pavilion. Chu Zhen climbed up the steps. When he went in, he saw a slightly fat boy in a silk robe over there smiling and greeting him with his eyes. He was graceful and generous. He nodded slightly, his eyes moved to one side, and waited for the guard to lay a mat, sat down, facing the distant mountain.
The guard left, and there were only Doctor Lu and Zheng De beside him, one closed his eyes and the other stood beside him.
Apart from the sound of rain, there was no movement in the pavilion.
Chu Zhen usually doesn't like to speak. Today, maybe the boy opposite him showed his intention. After a while, he turned around and asked casually: "How long have the two little brothers been sleepy here?"
After saying that, he looked at the two of them with a little curiosity.
The tallest man is seventeen or eighteen years old, handsome and approachable, but his slightly narrowed eyes exudes a sense of shrewdness.
Next to him...
Chu Zhen's eyes paused, then quickly moved away, but he didn't expect it to be a girl.
Cui Lu saw his behavior in his eyes. Seeing that the other party knew the etiquette and obeyed the rules, he felt calm and replied with a smile: "It's almost two quarters of an hour. We are lucky. The rain just fell."
Chu Zhen nodded. Just as he was about to speak, a thunder suddenly sounded outside, and his mind also buzzed, his eyes suddenly blurred and his headache was about to break.
Chu Zhen was very familiar with this situation. He tried his best to suppress the mad pain, and slowly turned around, put his legs outside the pavilion, covered his ears and hugged his head with both hands.
Zheng De's heart was raised as early as the thunder sounded. Seeing this, he hurriedly took out two balls of cotton plugs carefully made by the Imperial Hospital from his arms and stuffed them into Chu Zhen's ears. At the same time, he rushed there to pick up the miracle doctor with his eyes closed, and gestured to ask him to give the prince an acupuncture.
Your Highness's condition is too complicated and he has to return to the capital to truly start treatment. Now he can only suppress it first.
Cui Lu looked at the three people in front of him in a daze. The noble young man turned his back to this side and couldn't sit up under the suppression of the guards, but his trembling arms showed his pain. Even the white-bearded old man couldn't stop him even after stabbing a few needles on his head.
After all, after saying hello, Cui Lu got up, walked over and asked, "This..."
Before he finished speaking, a white light flashed in front of him and his neck cooled down, but a long sword was silently resting on his neck.
Even though he was calm, Cui Lu was also frightened by Zheng De's actions. Fortunately, the other party did not hurt him, which shows that there is still room for recovery.
Cui Lu forced himself to calm down and was about to plead for him, when suddenly his sister's scream came from behind, "Second brother!"
Zheng De has the intention to kill someone.
His Highness couldn't hear any sound when it broke out. The sound of rain was tormenting enough. Unexpectedly, he just made someone shut up, and someone else was making a noise there. It was the voice of his Highness the most disgusting woman.
Seeing the girl dressed in a man running over quickly, Zheng De quickly made a gesture of silence and put away the sword.
He was too anxious just now, and if he had known that he would have alarmed another person, he should have made gestures from the beginning.
The danger came suddenly and went there suddenly. Cui Lu looked at each other, but Cui Lu was the first to come back to his senses and held his sister's shoulder to prepare to walk back.
"Who was talking just now?"
The man who had been enduring the pain suddenly spoke.
Zheng De immediately knelt down and apologized: "Your Highness, my subordinate..."
Chu Zhen could no longer hear any other sounds, and turned around suddenly, and his eyes, bloodshot due to extreme pain, fell directly on Cui Xiao, "Continue!"
His face was pale but his eyes were red. Cui Xiao was already scared and hid behind Cui Lu and kept trembling.
Cui Lu was afraid and shocked, and followed Zheng De and called out: "Your Highness, sister..."
"Shut up, I'll let her talk!"
Chu Zhen was furious and no longer had the same calm wind as before as a god-like cloud, but was furious and cruel.
The order was not followed, so he rushed out to steal people.
Cui Xiao was so scared that she screamed, but she didn't know that the more she called, the more she wanted her.
Cui Lu tried his best to protect his sister, but was pulled by Zheng De who had reacted. No one protected her. Cui Xiao was anxious and afraid. She cried and wanted to go to Cui Lu's side. She didn't want to be pulled into her arms by Chu Zhen and then pushed it onto the pavilion pillar. The red eyes were so close that Cui Xiao was so scared that she lost her voice.
"Speak, I'll let you talk!"
Chu Zhen pinched her arm and shouted loudly.
"I, I, please let my second brother go, you let him go..." Cui Xiao kept trembling, not knowing what the other party was going crazy.
"Continue!"
