Chapter 269

A month after Chu Yu left, the sound of the flute of leaves would be heard in the courtyard from time to time. The thin and sharp tone was sad and lingering. After listening for a long time, people even had the illusion of heartbroken.

He not only blows every day, often, but also in other places. He can't hide the sound.

However, no one dares to raise any objection to the flute player. It's not that he doesn't want to live any more. He likes to play, but he can do it. At most, he can't listen.

Rongzhi is sitting in the chrysanthemum bush. He takes a fresh steamed crab. Mans peels the shell of the crab in an orderly way. His fingers are very dexterous. In the blink of an eye, he reveals the white jade crab meat. He dips it in the ginger vinegar on the long table in front of him, and then slowly delivers it to the mouth.

After eating a bite of crab, Rong Zhi took up his wine cup and sipped the warm yellow rice wine. He looked calm and steady, as if all the colorful things in the world were dim, and his whole body was so quiet that the golden chrysanthemums in the garden lost their color.

Autumn is a good time for the chrysanthemum yellow crab to grow fat. However, it's lonely to have wine without company, crab without friends, chrysanthemum without relatives, and to drink and eat by oneself. Once upon a time, I didn't feel anything, but I always worked with Chu Yu for the past three years. Now I suddenly left, and finally I felt a little dull.

After eating a few more mouthfuls, Rong Zhi wiped his fingers with a silk towel, and habitually played the flute for a while, then picked up the documents beside him and began to read them carefully.

He could see it very quickly. He could read ten lines at a glance, but every word entered his heart. He thought about it in every way, and then flashed through his heart.

However, after a long time, Rong Zhi finished browsing the document more than an inch high, but he did not stop to have a rest. After a pause, he reached into his arms and took out the secret letter delivered this morning.

He wiped his fingers again carefully before opening the envelope. Expand the stationery and look at it slowly:

The content of the letter is very common. It only records what Chu Yu ate, dressed, and did in the past two days, talks and laughs with people, and even eats half a bowl of rice at noon.

All the things are neatly copied on paper and sent to Rongzhi through special channels.

Different from the quick and efficient way of reading the letter just now, Rong Zhi read it very slowly, chewing it word by word. From these records, he can imagine Chu Yu's actions.

A leisurely smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he quietly calculated Chu Yu's journey.

This letter was written on the way. It was sent from half the way, but now they should arrive in Luoyang.

"If Chu Yu knew that one of your hands was still on her head, would she be angry?" A voice came from the gate of the garden. Rong Zhi didn't look back. Even if he didn't know the voice, he knew who it was.

It can get close before he knows it. There is only one person in the world.

Fold up the letter, put it back in the envelope, and then put it carefully in your arms. Rong Zhi said with a little smile: "it's OK, she will be a little angry, but she will soon understand that with my temperament, it's impossible to let her go. After thinking about it, she will be too lazy to be angry." She has been angry about similar things several times, and it's OK to do it again.

A few years ago. When Chu Yufang arrived in Luoyang, he planted a piece of chess beside her. It was the housekeeper who was responsible for managing all the trivial matters in Chu Yu's family. The housekeeper had a loyal and honest face, but he was a very capable person under his command. In the past few years, he came back to Luoyang from Luoyang to Pingcheng. He followed Chu Yuhuan far away without any flaw.

The housekeeper followed Chu Yu to protect his eyes.

Knowing that Rong Zhi's temperament is like this, Guan Canghai has never been against him again. He came smelling the fragrance and finished his gossip. Then he walked over and sat down opposite Rongzhi. He picked up a tied crab in the pot and ate it neatly.

Rong Zhi ignores him and just combs his thoughts. The housekeeper is an important member of his staff, and he sends him to protect Chu Yu. Although he takes care of Chu Yu's safety, he also hinders his future. The people who used to be equal to him either hold a big official position in the imperial court or hold a lot of wealth in his hand, but this person even delays his family.

After a little thought, Rong Zhi decided to wait for a while, and then he transferred the man back to work. When the situation in Pingcheng was settled, he could go to Luoyang with peace of mind. At that time, he would not need to be looked after by his subordinates.

Just, arrived at that time, Chu Yu knows the truth, probably want to be angry with him for a while again?

In the heart had care, thought of Chu Yu's possible reaction, Rong Zhi mouth appeared a funny smile.

Just wait until the situation in Pingcheng is settled.

At present, it is still up to Feng Ting to launch an attack on Tuo bahong and force him to abdicate. After Xiao Tuo bahong ascended the throne, he would formally participate in the Northern Wei Dynasty, in the name of assistant government. It will take some time for Feng Ting to get ready. Rong Zhi is not in a hurry. He just waits and arranges his subordinates.

However, from autumn to winter, several snowfalls fell in Pingcheng, and Rongzhi finally waited for a trace of doubt and uneasiness. He once sent people to ask Feng Ting several times, and when he asked Tuo bahong, he got the answer that he would wait a little longer.

Just a minute.

Just a minute.

They have all the favorable situations. What is Feng Ting waiting for? Is it hard to hide or deception with ulterior motives? Or is her real goal not topahong, but to deal with him?

Rong Zhi doesn't relax his vigilance because he and Feng Ting share the same blood relationship. It's not unusual for him to be fraternal. But the reason why he doesn't think Feng Ting will deal with him is that she doesn't have that ability.

Let's not say that the people who are in charge of Pingcheng's military power are his subordinates. Even if Feng Ting has military strength in his hands, he and Guan Canghai join hands, and they can go everywhere in the world.

If one blow can't destroy him, he will fight back.

Feng Ting should know this very well. Although her strategy is not as good as his, she has lived in the palace for so many years and has to observe Canghai's teaching. She can't be so unwise.

There should be no problem.

... but why is there always a shadow of uneasiness in my heart, and why do I linger all the time?

Rong Zhi's mood was slightly disordered. For the sake of safety, he reviewed the layout of the central court again. He felt that there was no oversight. He secretly blamed himself for his thoughtfulness. Just as he was thinking about it, he inadvertently raised his hand and rubbed his sleeve against his chest, suddenly saving something

It's a letter.

Since Chu Yu left, every three days, there must be a secret letter written by the housekeeper to report Chu Yu's daily life to him, but the latest one has been delayed for two days.

He thought it was snowing in winter that delayed the delivery of the letter. The two-day delay from Luoyang to Pingcheng was still within the allowable range, but combined with the current situation, he came to the conclusion that his heart was palpitating like falling into the abyss!

The poisonous arrow, which was always hidden in the dark, was not pointing at him. It was not even in Pingcheng, but in... Luoyang... Chuyu.

Chuyu!
