Chapter 103 Lost of reason
On this day, the dense clouds rarely faded from the sky, revealing a faint golden light. A cold wind blew by, but it still swept away the dead leaves that were barely clinging to the branches. Linlang Garden was extremely quiet at the moment, and the maidservant stood in the corridor.
None of them said a word and buried their heads very low, as if they wished they could hide away at this moment.
The room was warm, and the heat was obviously very warm, but it gradually caused uncontrollable anger and irritability to spread in the heart of County Lord Rongan who was sitting behind the desk.
Listening to the whistling wind outside the window, the head of Rongan County still held her hand and copied the "Taiping Sutra" word for word. It is said that copying scriptures is a matter of concentration and calmness, but at this moment, every word she wrote was filled with anger.
On the contrary, it accumulates more and more.
Time passed by minute by minute. When Rongan County Master finally copied the last word, she saw her writing the last stroke smoothly. She immediately threw the pen with a "ding-dong--" in disgust, and the next moment the wolf
The hair fell to the ground with a sound, and the fragrance of ink spread all over the ground. Lingxi on the side took a cautious look at the Lord Rongan. Seeing the gloomy look on the face of the Lord Rongan, he quickly stepped forward and picked up the hair with his hands and feet, and then put it away again.
The scriptures copied on the desk were carefully dried and closed. He swallowed nervously and said in a dry voice: "County Master, I will have the scriptures sent to Chaolu Courtyard now——"
"roll--"
Following the angry roar of the Lord of Rongan County, Lingxi's face turned pale. He quickly opened the curtain and handed the scripture to the maid waiting outside. After giving some instructions, he entered the house cautiously and served him with utmost care.
.
However, less than a cup of tea later, subtle footsteps suddenly sounded outside the soft curtain. With a sideways glance, he saw the Lord of Rongan County lying lazily on the beauty's couch as if he had not heard it, holding the carved inlay in one hand.
Bao's red gold wine flask, lazily holding the small wine glass with only two fingers in one hand.
With the sound of fine wine pouring into the cup, the aroma of wine overflowed. The Lord of Rongan County raised his neck and swallowed another cup of wine. Mrs. Cui who opened the curtain and entered the room saw such a wanton scene. Originally,
The anger caused by the beating on the Taiwei's wife Li's wife was like boiling oil pouring fire on the fire.
"My lady, I don't have the appearance of standing or sitting. As soon as I enter the house, it smells of alcohol. How unbecoming it is!"
The sudden scolding broke the dead silence in the room. When Lingxi saw the menacing Mrs. Cui, he was so frightened that he knelt down and did not dare to raise his head. However, the Lord Rongan who was lying on the couch was not moved at all, but looked at ease.
He slowly sat up and said as if it was normal: "Mom, what's the matter with me coming here right now?"
Seeing that the pampered daughter in front of her was acting more and more wildly, and now she was almost ignored, Mrs. Cui felt like something was stuck in her throat, and she didn't say anything. She just suppressed her anger and sat down on the couch under the window, and then came out.
The voice said: "Get up and answer."
Hearing the suppressed anger in Cui's words, the Lord of Rongan County chuckled inwardly, and showed no concern on his face. He was only supported by Lingxi, and walked to stand in front of Cui.
"Kneel down!"
However, before she could stand still, Mrs. Cui's cold and angry voice on the couch completely aroused her rebellious heart.
"As long as mother says what she wants to say, there is no need to come over here to humiliate me."
"Hurt?"
When Leng Buding heard these words, Ms. Cui's eyebrows raised sharply, but she pointed angrily at the Rongan County Lord and scolded: "You have caused me trouble time and time again, and you don't know how to restrain yourself. Now you dare to talk back to me?
"
Seeing the mother and daughter in front of them refusing to give in to each other, Ms. Cui's dowry confidant Luo Niang couldn't help but tried to comfort her: "County Master, you have always been the most filial and filial person who pleases your wife. Why have you become so angry today?"
As she spoke, Luo Niang glanced at Ms. Cui, whose chest was rising and falling, clearly suppressing her anger. Then she looked at Mr. Rongan County, who was standing in front of her but had done nothing wrong. Instead, she raised her chin, and couldn't help but sigh: "Just now.
Madam came from the Taiwei's wife. The Taiwei's wife read your scriptures. She first praised you, and then said that because of your filial piety, the previous disagreements will not be investigated. However, you must not act in the future.
If you continue to be so reckless, if you are known as domineering before you leave the cabinet, you will be harmed in the future, the county master——"
Before Luo Niang finished speaking, the Lord of Rongan County in front of him suddenly snorted and sneered, and then said lightly: "I said, it turns out that my mother was angry at Mrs. Taiwei, so she spilled her anger on me -"
"presumptuous!"
Cui stood up immediately after hearing this. Seeing Cui's anger growing, Luo Niang hurriedly tried to persuade her, but Cui brushed her away and went straight to the head of Rongan County and said, "How did I give birth to you like this?"
My arrogant and rude daughter, you have ignored my words again and again, and you have repeatedly made trouble. Instead of learning from the pain, you have become more and more rude. Could it be that all the etiquette and rules in the past have been fed to dogs? Do you have to be tired?
Are you happy that all of us in the house are disgusted by your father?"
Hearing Cui's angry words, the Lord of Rongan County was not afraid for the first time. Instead, he raised his head and looked at Cui, whose face was gloomy and scary due to anger. Instead, he said lightly: "A room? What mother said is
You and Shiro—"
Seeing that Cui's energy was stagnant, the head of Rongan County continued to say calmly: "You didn't care that Li Sui had humiliated the people around me before, and deliberately punished me to copy books in the name of the Taiwei's wife. You don't care anymore. Now for Yang Zhen, you don't care."
Are you here?"
Sensing Cui's anger, his eyes widened and he was speechless. The head of Rongan County also smiled more and more: "Am I causing him trouble? Mother, you are from a noble family, and you have always been a head shorter than Mrs. Taiwei.
Don't you know why you can't even compare to Mrs. Cao who was born in the army? Isn't it because you are so used to him in Yang Zhen that he only knows how to fight cocks and lackeys, wandering around the streets and alleys, and he is not in a good mood? "
"He is the brother of your compatriot -"
Faced with the disdain of the Rongan County Lord, Cui pointed at her and spoke, but she never thought that the Rongan County Lord suddenly waved his sleeves and interrupted loudly: "I don't have an elder brother like him. The eldest man became a marquis, and the second son is a marquis."
The legitimate eldest son, even Sanlang was granted the title of Duke on the strength of his title. What did he gain from Yang Zhen? Apart from squandering your money to go out and have a good time, what else would he do if he did not do his job? It is because of him, because of his uselessness, that you are tired
Look at people's eyes. If I hadn't worked hard since I was a child to win my father's favor, our family would have had no place to stand. Doesn't my mother know? But in your heart, you always value him and me. He is a golden pimple and I am a bitch.
?Isn’t it just because of your favoritism that you got used to this loser Yang Zhen——"
"Pah——"
With a crisp sound, the hoarse words of Lord Rong'an were strangled. Seeing Cui's face turning pale with anger, Leng Lin put down his trembling right hand. Luo Niang was already trembling with fear and did not dare to speak.
Words come.
Seeing Lord Rongan gently caressing her slightly hot left cheek, Ms. Cui didn't want to say anything anymore, but said coldly: "Mother Luo, send me someone to keep an eye on this place. Without my order, The county lord is not allowed to go out. If you violate the rules, I will take you to task."
After saying that, Ms. Cui fluttered her sleeves and walked away angrily. When she was behind the curtain, she suddenly stopped and without looking back, she just said without a trace of emotion in her voice: "Since I can't keep you in this house, then you can Just leave."
The Lord of Rongan County turned his head in disbelief when he heard this, but saw that Mrs. Cui left only one sentence and left coldly without stopping at all.
"Wei Wei Qing Chao Ling is young and promising. The Chao family has a prominent family and is a perfect match for us. The Taiwei's wife mentioned it to me today. Both the Taiwei and I feel very good about it. You will get married in March next year. On the day you leave the imperial palace, don’t even think about taking a step outside the Taiwei’s mansion."
The soft curtain fell heavily, and the heart of Lord Rongan County also fell heavily.
She is actually leaving——
When Luo Niang carefully bowed and left in a hurry, Rongan County Master stumbled, and suddenly fell to the ground like a broken paper kite. Lingxi was so shocked that he quickly stepped forward to help him, but he couldn't pull him up at all. He could only hear Rongan County Master Shen Shen Na Na said: "No, I don't want to get married, I don't want to get married, even if I am a sister-in-law, I don't want to get married -"
Having said that, the Lord of Rongan County eagerly grabbed Lingxi's shoulders, holding them tightly with his fingers as if looking at the last life-saving straw: "What should I do with Lingxi? I can't marry anyone else. I don't want to marry someone I don't love." people--"
"This slave knows, this slave understands -"
Lingxi was in pain from being squeezed, but she could only hold herself up, her eyes darting away, as if she had something to say but was hesitant.
"Did you think of something?"
The Lord of Rong'an County noticed it, and immediately held Lingxi's shoulder and pulled the two closer. Lingxi was stared at and couldn't do anything. After hesitating for a moment, he finally whispered in a low voice: "Slave, I have a way, but I don’t know if it’s available—”
"What a way!"
Feeling that the force on his shoulders was getting heavier, Lingxi frowned in pain, and immediately kowtowed to the ground tremblingly: "Back to the county master, there is a hermit Taoist three miles outside of Beijing. I heard that he is proficient in physiognomy, Liu Ren and the Five Elements, and can know Heaven listens, it turns out that the immortal descended to earth and came through calamity——"
Having said this, Lingxi raised her head cautiously, looked at the soft curtain, and then leaned closer and whispered softly: "I heard that his best skill is Miao Gu. He can cast the No Order Gu, the Life and Death Gu, and the Love Gu. , the non-ordering Gu can make people obey what they say, the life-death Gu can take people's lives, and the love-making Gu can make people have unwavering affection, but the price is quite high, and others can't afford it easily——"
Don’t let Gu——
Life and death Gu——
Love Gu——
The Lord Rongan's expression was dull, and his hands gradually loosened. Just as Lingxi couldn't help but let out a breath, and wanted to rub his shoulders but didn't dare, he suddenly heard the Lord Rongan in front of him suddenly smile, looking extremely strange and uneasy.
