Chang Anqing

Chapter 108
When the sun was about to set, the county magistrate Rong An was still sitting on the huanghuali wood bed with lotus pattern under the window. Because the inside and outside of the house were too quiet, Rong An suddenly felt that he could hear the faint sound of the candles in the lampshade. , at this moment, it was rare for her to look careless, sitting there, her hands hidden under the wide sleeves involuntarily caressing, even she herself did not notice the tension and panic in her heart, and the forced depression in her eyes. Shining slightly.

At this moment, footsteps gradually sounded outside, and the next moment, as the soft curtain slapped lightly, Rong An looked reflexively, and when he saw Lingxi behind the soft curtain, his heart jumped involuntarily.

Sensing Lingxi's calm nodding, Rong An felt relieved, but only then did she notice that there was Baobari following in, and after Lingxi had saluted, Baobari stepped forward and respectfully said, "County Lord, Mr. Silang originally wanted to follow, but when he returned to the mansion, he met Luo Niang who was next to the third lady, it seemed that it was for this—"

Seeing Bao Barley's hesitant to speak, Rong'an county master naturally knew that those women must have told her mother about Yang Zhen's disturbance in Linlang Yuan today, but she couldn't care about that at the moment, she just pretended to be worried. Nodding, he said sincerely: "I was the one who got him into trouble. Thank you brother today. Although I didn't say it before, I know how good he is to me."

After finishing speaking, Rong An signaled Lingxi to step back and changed clothes with the maid beside Yang Zhen. When Bao Barley and his party disappeared into the house and could not hear a single sound, the County Lord Rong An immediately looked at Lingxi, and Lingxi stepped forward with comprehension. Come, first walked to the soft curtain very carefully, opened it slightly to have a look, and when he confirmed that there was no one else outside the room, he hurriedly went to Rong An's side, and put the lacquer box she brought back on the desk.

Seeing this, Rong An couldn't wait to lift the lids of each layer of the food box a little. Seeing that there were food or things inside, she immediately threw it back in annoyance. When she lifted the last layer, she finally saw four things inside. It was a palm-sized pottery vase, which looked ordinary, but Rong An felt that his eyes and heart were attracted by it, and he didn't move a bit.

"Master, according to your order, the servant gave the old man a lot of money, and now he has prepared everything—"

Hearing Lingxi's deep and mysterious voice, Rong An immediately looked at her with shining eyes, and his voice became much tighter: "This has become—"

However, just as she spoke, Lingxi shook her head slowly, noticing Rong An's surprised eyebrows, Lingxi hurriedly leaned into her ear and said: "The old Taoist said, now that the Gu worm is in this bottle, you only need to Introduce the hair, skin or blood of the bewitched person and the bewitched person into it, and wait another seven days for it to work."

Speaking of this, Lingxi pointed to the pottery vases with red, blue and black cloth on the table and said: "This is Love Gu, Bu Ling Gu and Life and Death Gu."

In the silence, County Mistress Rong'an hesitantly put her hand into the bottle of the Affection Gu, and she couldn't help trembling when she touched it, but the next moment her eyes suddenly became deep and firm, and then she saw her dead with a consonance. Holding the bottle tightly, gently uncover the red cloth on the bottle mouth.

When he saw a Gu worm whose body was as red as a bloodstone, but transparent and almost crystal-like lying inside, Rong An's pupils trembled slightly. About to crawl towards the mouth of the bottle, when Rong An saw this, her hands trembled in shock, and she quickly clasped the cloth tightly again. The next moment, when she looked at the crimson and black pottery bottle dripping with cold sweat, her eyes gradually changed. Gloomy and terrifying, like a deep pool that cannot be seen clearly.

"it is good--"

Lingxi at the side suddenly saw her master become like this, and felt more and more terrifying in her heart. Just when she was panicking, she saw Rong An in front of her finally turned her eyes away and landed on her. The non-smiling voice sounded slowly.

"Didn't they want to congratulate her on this great joy, so I turned her great joy into a great funeral—"

……

Three days had passed between tossing and turning, Li Suifang was having lunch in the house at noon that day, when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps approaching, but after a while, someone opened the curtain and came in.

Looking back, he saw that it was Yinniang who was beside his aunt, looking very happy again, and Li Suiyue guessed the reason.

"Princess, General Wuwei and his wife have come from Hongnong. Just now, when they arrived at Chaolu Courtyard, Mrs. Taiwei is asking her slaves to invite you to come, and the Duke is also here."

Li Sui got up when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, you go back and report to your aunt, I will change my clothes and come right away."

When Yinniang responded again and again and went down happily, Li Sui had already signaled Niannu and Yunu to wait for him to put on the brand new dress that he had just made a few days ago.

"Time flies so fast. In less than half a month, Mrs. Bao will get married, and she will be married to our Erlang Jun. Both Mr. Erlang and Mrs. Bao have a very good relationship with you, the princess. One is your own daughter. For small affection, one is Jinlan handkerchief, this is really the best—"

Hearing Niannu's babbling, Li Sui couldn't help but smile, yes, no matter what happened in the past or in the previous life, Erlang at least doesn't have Jiuge by his side now, and he can be regarded as a person who knows everything compared to others. Judging from the relationship between the two lifetimes, Li Sui knew that although Yang Yanyu Baoying was not a good person, he was a good person.

I only hope that some changes in this life can be unintentionally inserted, at least it can make the two of them live a more peaceful and smooth life.

"Now speaking of it, Princess, you have reached the age to leave the cabinet—"

Hearing the nagging in his ears suddenly, Li Sui immediately raised his hand and tapped Nian Nu's forehead, pretending to be angry and said: "It's getting worse, you dare to talk about the master's affairs."

Seeing that Nian Nu was not afraid, he only pretended to beg for mercy, Li Sui didn't say any more, just looked at Yu Nu helplessly, and walked out first.

When their masters and servants came to Chaolu Courtyard, they saw how lively the courtyard was. The maids and maids almost squeezed the courtyard tightly. Looking at her now, some of the maidservants didn't know her yet, so they just followed her. Li, when she saw the maidservant in Chaoluyuan stepping up to call her princess, her eyes became more nervous and cautious.

Li Sui didn't say much, just nodded and smiled amiably, then lifted the curtain and walked in. After turning the screen fan, the room was full of people. , Li Sui pursed his lips and approached with a smile, first lowered his smiling eyes to the standing Baoying, then bowed to Li Zhang who was sitting beside him and called "Aye", and finally bowed to Yang Chongyuan and his wife.

When she moved her eyes to Li Zhang's side, she saw a middle-aged man with a well-proportioned but solemn face in a stone-blue back-patterned lake silk shirt. Li Sui remembered that this was Baoying's father, Yang Yuanjing. He is looking at himself with a smile at the moment, and his figure looks as resolute and upright as a mountain pass in the night. Although he is also a man who has led soldiers on the battlefield, compared to Yang Chongyuan who is not angry and arrogant, Li Sui feels that The people in front of her were a little different, which made her feel strange.

"This is Baoying's Aye, Auntie, you just follow Erlang and the others to call uncle and aunt."

Hearing Li's reminder from the side, Li Sui bowed with a smile, and then said: "Uncle, aunt—"

"Well, princess please get up."

Hearing Yang Yuanjing's gentle voice, Li Sui just got up, and at this moment, she happened to meet Yang Yuanjing's eyes, and in an instant, she gradually understood what the strangeness in her heart was.

No matter how easy-going his eyes are, they are not as clear as his father's.

She could finally see the unpleasant utilitarianism and calculations from under those hidden eyes.

"I have always heard that the princess under the knees of the Duke and the Princess is the jewel of the noble daughter of Chang'an City. It is no less than the golden branches and jade leaves in the palace. It is indeed enviable to see it today. The Duke is very lucky."

At this moment, another orchid-like voice sounded from his ears, and Li Sui looked after him, and saw a beautiful woman with soft eyes like water. The person is quiet and gentle, and Baoying's facial features and temperament seem to be carved out of the same mold.

"Baoying sent a letter back from Chang'an, and mentioned that she had made a close friend of Jinlan, the princess. Now looking at it, I feel that we, Baoying, are on the top."

Facing Yang's smiling eyes as calm as water, Li Sui saluted, then took Baoying's hand and said: "Auntie praised you absurdly, Baoying's beauty is beyond my reach."

Upon hearing this, Yang glanced at the two wonderful young ladies in front of her, the smile on her face deepened, and her brows and eyes gradually became gratified.

But at this time, Li Sui felt a gaze that was so indifferent that she could not ignore it. When she looked around, she met the Rong'an county magistrate standing beside her.

Today there are guests in the mansion, Li Sui is not surprised that Rong'an County Lord will be released, but seeing her looking over at this moment, the Rong'an County Lord's eyes can't help but move, and the next moment he looks back unhappily.

Li Sui smiled when he saw this, but ignored it, and turned to talk to Baoying.
