Guizhen

Chapter 56

The corners of Zheng Kun's lips fell from her choking.

Guo Ming took a step forward and said in a clear voice, "Of course the master of magic will investigate. As for Xiaoma's death... I will go to the palace and report back to His Majesty."

"Guo Shenji said that, so I understand." Lu Zhen smiled lightly and nodded, "Since the horse magician hurt my maidservant because of a Gu, then I will not pursue the matter." Clasped fists, "There will be a period later!"

They are all in the capital, so maybe we met on the street.He also said that there will be a period of time later, making it like running a river and lake.Guo Ming clasped his fists in response, "There is a time, there is a time."

……

It was almost noon when we returned to Lu Mansion.

As soon as the little maid guarding the gate saw Lu Zhen, she trotted up to salute, "Fifth Miss, you are finally back. The old lady has been scolding the fourth master for a quarter of an hour. Mother Dai was afraid that the old lady would be really angry, so she specially The special servant is here waiting for you."

Lu Zhen nodded, "Go to Yannian Hall first."

In the carriage parked at the street corner, Cao Yunqing lowered the curtain that had been opened at a corner, and ordered: "Let's go."

He originally planned to submit a letter of worship and enter the mansion to ask for an audience.Tell Lu Wu the details about Yasha again.However, the greeting card was crumpled by him, and he couldn't send it to Lu's residence which is close at hand.

The carriage moved forward slowly.He seemed to have heard the sound of the vermilion lacquered door closing heavily.Cao Yunqing let out a breath of frustration, and slowly sank into the big pillow.

……

"Tell me about you. Is there anything you can't tell me clearly?" The old lady Lu put her hand on her chest, "My poor sister Zhen! Why did you get such an unreliable father!" With a glance, "If I had known this, I should have recorded Sister Zhen under your elder brother's name!"

"Why?" Lu Xuan was displeased when she heard that, "I picked up Sister Zhen. Besides, I'm just a girl like Sister Zhen. Mother, how can you bear it?"

The old lady Lu stared at Lu Xuan for a long time, then sighed helplessly: "You...you can't find someone who knows the cold and the hot to start a family? Even if it's a married woman, she won't dislike it."

The words that had been in her heart for many years were spoken, and the old lady Lu had no scruples, "You have three elder brothers who are enough to carry on the family. It's not bad that you have daughters in the room."

Not only is it good, it is like a fairy day in a dream.The fourth child is handsome, if the girl looks like him, she can't go wrong.At that time, her dowry will be left to the fourth child to marry her daughter.The old lady Lu shook her head with a sad face.But... the unfilial son even refused to accept the house girl.She has to keep dreaming.

Lu Xuan categorically refused, "I won't marry!"

"Okay! You don't marry!" Mrs. Lu took a few deep breaths, pointing at Lu Xuan with trembling fingers, "If you have the ability, you will not marry for the rest of your life!"

"Grandmother, don't get angry." Lu Zhen lifted the curtain and entered the room, walked quickly to the old lady Lu, knelt on the ground on one knee, and looked up at her, "It's all granddaughter's fault, not daddy's fault."

The eyes were so bright that Old Madam Lu's heart melted.

"My Bao'er! Where have you been?" Mrs. Lu stroked Lu Zhen's forehead, "I'm worried about grandma."

"That's what happened." Lu Zhen put her hand on the old lady Lu's knee, "Last night, the remnants of the Xuantian Sect came to seek revenge on me. As a descendant of Taoxian Valley, you can't be timid. I drove them all the way out of the capital. Come back On the way, I was invited to have a cup of hot tea by the staff of Shenji Division, so it was delayed."

The old lady Lu rubbed Lu Zhen's arm, "Are you not injured?"

"It's okay." Lu Zhen smiled brightly, "It's a small scene, it's not a big deal."

The old lady Lu looked at it seriously for a while, then believed Lu Zhen's words, hugged her in her arms, raised her head and said to Lu Xuan: "Sister Zhen is much more sensible than you. You..." waved her hand helplessly, "Go Play and don't get in the way of me."

Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw the strangle marks on Mu Xiang's neck, and the old lady Lu said "Oops", "What's wrong with Mu Xiang?"

"Return to the old lady." Mu Xiang blessed the old lady Lu, "The servant girl went out to find the girl, and she accidentally bumped into a tree branch when she was flying."

Can it be like this when it hits a tree branch?Besides, how could it crash into a tree if it was flying well in the sky?How tall is that tree?Old lady Lu frowned suspiciously.Lu Zhen shook her arm and said softly, "Grandma, I'm almost starving to death."

Yes!Sister Zhen hasn't eaten yet.Girls are delicate and can't be too cold or hungry.

Old Madam Lu looked away, and hurriedly ordered Nanny Dai to go to the kitchen to collect food and drink.Mu Xiang took this opportunity to sneak back to Shui He Yuan.

……

Lu Zhen had dinner at Yanniantang, and talked with Mrs. Lu for a while before returning to Shuiheyuan.Mu Xiang changed into clean clothes and covered the scars on her neck with gouache, which looked less scary.

"Girl, please sit down." Mu Xiang lowered her voice, eyes full of worry, "The maid will give you the medicine."

Lu Zhen sat down on the chair, rubbing between her brows tiredly.He didn't see the liveliness in front of Mrs. Lu just now.Mu Xiang carefully helped her remove the Taoist robe, revealing the scabbed wound on her shoulder.

"No need for medicine." Lu Zhen turned her head and looked at her shoulder, "I used a talisman to stop the bleeding. Use another talisman at night, and it will be cured in the morning." She took out the Jiuxiang Yulu pill that Guo Ming gave her and put it on the table. "This is a good thing, you can keep it and eat it."

"No maid." Mu Xiang shook her head like a rattle, "Miss eat."

"Don't push back and forth." Lu Zhen walked behind the screen, changed her pajamas and said, "I'll take it for you." With her fingers dexterously tied on her belt, she came out from behind the screen, spitting out her mouth Angrily, "I was in Shenji Division just now, you didn't cry badly, especially the way you pretended to be frightened by Ma Rui was very real."

After being praised by Lu Zhen, Mu Xiang was happy, and soon showed a look of fear, "The servant girl remembered the girl's advice, and watched him want to hurt the girl, but resisted to move his finger. Thinking about it now, It's really dangerous."

"The one he fell wasn't enough to kill me. The magician couldn't blame me if he wanted to. After that, he kicked and cursed the house, and they couldn't figure out the mutual confusion." Lu Zhen dragged Ping Yi lapel, "The matter of the Xuantian faction has been covered up. Speaking of it, I am also to blame for my negligence. The two ghosts received in Wuming Mountain before are the pawns of the Xuantian faction."

She subdued those two shadows, but never took it seriously.If I had asked earlier, I would not have found the way.

"I don't blame the girl for being negligent. Ever since you returned to the capital, Shen Jiji has been messing around with you. You don't have time to be filial in front of the old lady, let alone other things." Mu Xiang spread out the thin quilt, turned to get the incense pills, "But... I feel that you have exaggerated a bit too much this time." The two remnants of the Xuantian Sect were blown into thirty by the girl.The simple pursuit of revenge was blown up by the girl as a big conspiracy with ulterior motives to disrupt the capital.

The girl can tell stories, and so many magicians believe her evil... No.I believed her words.Mu Xiang and You Rongyan puffed out their chests, and asked Lu Zhen with a smile, "Is the sweet osmanthus good?"

Lu Zhen nodded, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, "It's enough for the people in Shenji Division to believe in it." He lifted the thin quilt and lay down in it. "I'll sleep for a while. I'll think about Ma Rui's affairs later." .”

Dealing with the mere remnants of the two Xuantian sects is not enough to affect the Gu in Ma Rui's body.How did Ma Rui lose his life?Lu Zhen fell asleep with doubts.

After burning the incense, he walked lightly to the outside and closed the door.
