Chapter 162 Man’s calculation is not as good as God’s calculation
Lang Yue shook his head repeatedly, "It's because I didn't do my job well, and Uncle Zhong found out about this. I should die to atone for my sin."
Lang Yue paused and said, "I wanted to win your praise, so I ignored Huaichuan's obstruction and insisted on entering early, which alarmed Uncle Zhong. I deserve it."
"So in order not to implicate Huaichuan, you admitted it directly without saying anything when Huahua questioned you?"
Lang Yue didn't say anything, but just put Yao Jia's hand on his face and absorbed the warmth from her palm.
Yao Jia's eyes moved slightly, and her fingers gently stroked his cheek.
Leaning over, she kissed him on the forehead.
"Langyue, don't be so stupid again. You and Huahua are the same in my heart. You need to explain this to him and make a decision after I come back."
If Lang Yue doesn't explain clearly, he will inevitably be misunderstood and he will be the one who suffers.
Lang Yue nodded, "Okay, I understand what Yaoyao means. I will discuss everything with Bai Pingjun in the future."
Huaichuan listened quietly to the conversation between the two in the outer room, tightened the medicine bottle in his hand, took a deep breath and went in.
When Yao Jia saw him bringing the medicine, she took it and applied it to Lang Yue herself.
After the servant brought the boiled medicine over, he personally fed it to Langyue and told him to have a good rest before leaving Langyue's yard with Huaichuan.
Yao Jia was thinking about how to explain her theft to Lin Congmo, and walked towards Lin Congmo.
Before reaching Lin Congmo's courtyard, I saw Nangong Xiu Lan walking towards Lin Congmo's courtyard from another path.
Yao Jia hurriedly stopped.
Huaichuan followed her all the way, deep in thought, and did not notice that Yaojia had stopped.
Yao Jia was knocked forward by the force, but luckily he was quick to react and caught her in time, preventing her from falling.
"What's wrong? Why did you stop suddenly?" Huaichuan looked at Yaojia with some confusion.
Yao Jia shook her head, motioning him to be quiet, and pointed ahead, "Look, isn't that Xiu Lan? Why is he back so early?"
Huaichuan looked in the direction of Yaojia's finger, and sure enough, he saw Nangong Xiulan stepping into Lin Congmo's yard.
He frowned slightly, also confused.
"Could it be that he knew about what happened today, so he went to find Lao Zhengjun?"
"I don't know." Yao Jia shook her head. "We can find out if we follow them quietly."
The two men carefully moved to a hidden place and jumped onto the top of the wall.
Facing a wrinkled, smiling face.
"Why doesn't Young Master go through the main entrance?"
Lin Zhong looked at Yao Jia and Huai Chuan with interest.
Yao Jia and Huai Chuan looked at each other and saw a bit of embarrassment in each other's eyes.
I originally wanted to spy secretly, but I didn't expect to be caught on the spot.
Yao Jia laughed dryly, "Uncle Lin, we are just... passing by, yes, passing by."
Lin Zhong looked at her, his smile growing even wider. "Oh? You were just passing by? Why didn't you take the main road, but climbed over the wall instead?"
Huaichuan coughed and said seriously, "Uncle Zhong, the master actually wants to see Old Master Zheng for something."
Yao Jia nodded in agreement.
Lin Zhong raised his eyebrows and looked at Yao Jia with an embarrassed look.
"Young Pavilion Master, you came at an inopportune time. Old Zhengjun is busy today and doesn't want to see anyone."
Yao Jia pursed her lips. It was not that he didn't want to see people, but that he didn't want to see her.
He winked at Huaichuan, and the two of them came down from the wall.
"I didn't expect Uncle Zhong to be so good at martial arts." Yao Jia exclaimed.
Just before I climbed up the wall, I didn't sense his presence at all.
Huaichuan smiled and said, "Uncle Zhong is one of the three great masters of the Shadow Guard Battalion. His martial arts skills are comparable to my master's. In the past, they were called the Twin Devils of the Shadow Guard Battalion."
"Really?" Yao Jia's eyes flickered.
Since they are called the Twin Devils, their looks should be similar, but Lin Zhong looks average and Xuanying wears a mask all day long. Yao Jia is really curious about what Xuanying looks like.
"So, is your master good-looking?"
"Of course he's good-looking. My master was the most handsome man in the Shadow Guard Battalion back then."
"If you're so beautiful, why do you always wear a mask?" Yao Jia was really curious.
Huaichuan lowered his head and gazed at Yaojia gently, feeling a tightness in his chest.
After losing their master, these special shadow guards would either die to show their loyalty or, like their master, put on a mask and fulfill their master's unfulfilled wishes before dying.
I don’t want Yaojia to know this heavy answer.
"Master wears it because he is afraid that others will covet his beauty."
Yao Jia smiled knowingly, this was to keep her virginity for her mother.
No wonder Uncle Lin hates Xuanying so much. Once he puts on the mask, everyone knows that he belongs to my mother.
Yao Jia felt that Uncle Lin should be more generous. After all, they would meet at the Spirit Gathering Platform in the future.
Lin Congmo suddenly sneezed in the house.
Nangong Xiu Lan immediately stood up and added more fuel to the charcoal fire in the charcoal basin.
"It's cold these days, dad, you should take good care of yourself."
Lin Congmo snorted coldly, "Take care of yourself! You might as well go and accompany your master now. Out of sight, out of mind."
Nangong Xiu Lan also felt that what happened today was strange, so he came back early.
Just now, I also heard from Lin Congmo that Yao Jia ordered Lang Yue to steal the marriage certificate during the birthday banquet.
"Yaoyao did something wrong in this matter. Since the marriage certificate has been taken away, father should not take it too seriously."
"What do you mean?" Lin Congmo looked at him in surprise.
The secret letter left by Wan Ning clearly stated that only by marrying Yao Jia into the Gu family could their fate be finally stabilized.
"Yaoyao's fate with Gu's Sanlang has not been eliminated. Even if the marriage certificate is taken away, it will not help. Why don't you let her make her own decision, father?"
Nangong Xiu Lan never says anything without certainty.
Lin Congmo had no choice but to follow Yao Jia.
Things were exactly as Nangong Xiu Lan said.
Yao Jia had the marriage certificate in hand, but had never had the opportunity to go before the emperor to cancel the engagement.
The Liang army is approaching, Daxia is losing ground, the emperor is displeased and no one dares to approach him.
As the New Year is approaching, the whole of Kyoto is in panic and the atmosphere is very depressing.
All entertainment activities were cancelled, and the people began to pray, spontaneously placing blessing lanterns in front of the Tianxing Pavilion, hoping that Daxia would win the battle as soon as possible.
On this day, Yao Jia was fortune-telling in Wangshu Tower.
Lin Ruyi ran up excitedly, but heard the voice before she saw the person.
"Good news! Good news!"
Yao Jia didn't raise her eyes, Lang Yue crossed her arms and smiled, "What good news makes Master Ruyi so excited?"
Lin Ruyi asked him to pour her a cup of tea before she agreed to speak.
Lang Yue pursed her lips and said, "If you want to drink our tea, just say so. Why are you keeping us in suspense?"
Although he said this, he sat down at a low table and made tea for Lin Ruyi.
Lin Ruyi walked past Yao Jia, took a look, praised, "Today's divination is good," and sat down opposite Lang Yue.
After Langyue poured him more tea, he took a sip, squinted his eyes and praised the tea, then smiled at the two of them.
"Guess what news I just heard?" Lin Ruyi put down the teacup, her face full of mystery.
Yao Jia stopped writing and looked up at him, "You are so excited, could it be that Liang State has withdrawn its troops?"
Lin Ruyi shook her head. "How could the Liang Kingdom withdraw its troops? They came with such force this time that they were clearly well prepared."
"Then what good news is there?" Lang Yue was puzzled.
"A great victory at the border, the news will soon be announced from the palace." Lin Ruyi looked at Yao Jia with great pride.
"This is a piece of freshly-minted good news. As soon as I got the news, I came here to share it with you. Isn't that very considerate?"
Yao Jia nodded, "That's very kind. Thank you very much."
Lang Yue quickly poured him another cup of tea, "Master Ruyi, do you know the details of the war?"
Lin Ruyi chuckled and drank the tea without hesitation.
