To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 499 Farewell

  Looking at the pale boy, Luo Sheng raised his hand and rubbed his head.

  Inadvertently, that little boy was half a head taller than her, making it difficult for her to do this movement.

   "How come, you will always be my brother."

  The young man trembled his thick eyelashes and pursed his lips slightly.

   "Luo Chen, you are so smart, there are many truths that I don't need to say. My idea is very simple. People have love when they get along with each other, not just the bond of blood. We have been siblings since childhood. Will it change now?"

  Luo Chen was silent for a long time, and finally raised the corners of his lips: "Sister is right."

   Seeing Luo Chen figured it out, Luo Sheng couldn't help laughing.

  She went from being hostile to Governor Luo to treating him as a second father, maybe it was because of getting along with him.

  Calm down, thousands of questions come to mind.

   "It was the Zhennan Prince's Mansion that my father led people to besiege. So, I am... the orphan of the Zhennan King, and was secretly rescued by my father?"

"Um."

   "If I am the orphan of Zhennan King, who is the current Zhennan King?"

  He had seen that young man before, and he was worried that Luo Sheng would take a fancy to him, and he would bring new talk to the capital.

   "I used to have a noodle boss named Si Nan, who assassinated his father at the beginning of the year before last, and later found out that he was an old servant of the Zhennan Palace..."

  Luo Chen listened quietly, momentarily puzzled by the connection.

  Luo Sheng looked at Luo Chen, and said word by word: "The current king of Zhennan is at least five points like Si Nan."

  Luo Chen's eyes flickered slightly: "Sister, what do you mean, the current Zhennan King may be Si Nan's brother?"

  Luo Sheng nodded slightly.

   This time, Luo Chen was silent for a longer time.

  The thick and slender eyelashes are like a small fan, casting a circle of shadows on the lower eyelid, covering the emotions in the boy's eyes.

  Luo Sheng didn't break the quiet atmosphere, leaving enough time for the boy to digest this amazing news.

   After a while, Luo Chen looked up at Luo Sheng: "What about Xiao Qi?"

  Before Luo Sheng could respond, he asked, "Is Xiaoqi also related to Zhennan Palace?"

Luo Sheng couldn't help but admire Luo Chen's intelligence, and he didn't have the intention to hide it: "Xiao Qi is the same as the current Zhennan King, he is a servant of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. When the Zhennan Prince's Mansion was besieged, in order to protect the real little prince , many babies were taken away by guards, and the two of them were among them..."

  Luo Chen listened silently, thinking of that black boy who was always warm and friendly.

   It turned out that they had experienced the same bloodbath at such a young age.

   "Let Xiaoqi go with you tomorrow in the name of a companion."

  Luo Chen looked into Luo Sheng's eyes, and asked the question that puzzled him the most: "Why does sister know so clearly?"

   Regarding this question, Luo Sheng had already thought up an explanation: "Xiu Gu told me that she is the maid next to Princess Zhennan, and she can recognize Xiao Qi because Xiao Qi wears the jade cicada she gave to her fiancé..."

   "How could Gu Xiu tell my sister such a secret thing?" Luo Chen's eyes showed a bit of guard.

  He has always had a good impression of Xiu Gu, who is a superb cook, but when he thinks that the other party tells Luo Sheng about this, he will inevitably feel dissatisfied.

   This is clearly dragging my sister into the water.

Luo Sheng raised his hand to straighten his drooping hair, and said with a smile: "King Kaiyang told me that there was a rattle drum that might be with you, and Xiu Gu heard it. It looks like, plus the rattle, gave birth to the suspicion that you are the little prince, so I found a chance to confess to me."

  Luo Chen's voice was astringent: "Do I look alike...Princess Zhennan?"

  Luo Sheng didn't change his face and said: "Xiu Gu said so, and I have never met Princess Zhennan, so how could I know?"

  Really speaking, Luo Chen and his concubine mother are not too similar, at most there is a shadow or two.

  It's normal for people to be a little bit alike, and that's why she didn't think about Luo Chen at first.

   "Father arranged for me to leave Beijing. Could it be that someone noticed his act of saving me back then?"

  Luo Sheng showed a relaxed smile: "It's just a rainy day. As long as you are not in Beijing, even if someone makes a fuss about the past in the future, it will not be so easy."

"But-"

  Luo Sheng stopped Luo Chen's words: "Listen to me. In fact, leaving Beijing this time is not to send you to Jinsha, you are going to Heyang."

   "Heyang?"

   "Yes, that's where the Suzaku Guards are hiding. You can get to know them first when you get there. If the capital is in chaos in the future, our Luo family will at least have a way out."

  Hearing what Luo Sheng said, Luo Chen couldn't help dispelling the idea of ​​staying, and new doubts emerged again: "How can I contact Zhuquewei?"

   Can't Suzaku Guard appear out of thin air with half a token?

  Just as he was wondering, he heard Luo Sheng say: "Mr. Zhu's uncle is the commander of Zhuquewei, and he will go with you tomorrow."

  Luo Chen was stunned, and took a while to recover: "That is to say, there is a restaurant where the accountant is Suzakuwei, the cook is the maidservant of the Zhennan Palace, and the miscellaneous Xiao Qi is the old servant of the Zhennan Palace..."

  Luo Sheng nodded slightly: "That's right."

   "What about the shopkeeper?"

   "The shopkeeper belongs to the shopkeeper."

  Luo Chen showed a dumbfounding expression.

   Fortunately, there is finally a normal person.

   "Let's go back early and rest, we have to hurry tomorrow morning."

   "En." Luo Chen felt that he still had a lot to say, but in the end he only answered one word, and left Xianyun Garden silently.

  The next day was a fine weather, early in the morning all the members of the Luo family saw Luo Chen off.

  The aunts surrounded Luo Chen, wiping away tears.

   "Young Master is away from home, so take care of yourself."

   "That's right, the young master is so thin and has to go far away, the master is really cruel..."

   "When the old lady of the Sheng family recovers, the young master should go home early."

   There seemed to be countless bees buzzing in his ears, Luo Chen twitched his lips and glanced at Governor Luo.

  Luo Dadu sullenly shouted: "Enough is enough, you are not finished!"

  The aunts stopped talking, and secretly rolled their eyes at Governor Luo.

  The young master is the only child of the Luo family, I really don't know what the master thinks.

  Sister Luo Ying also said goodbye one by one.

  Luo Chen listened patiently and looked at Luo Sheng.

  The moment the siblings looked at each other, they were filled with emotions.

  Luo Sheng handed over the packed package, and said: "The pork knuckle can be kept for a long time, remember to eat braised beef and sauced duck tongue first. I also prepared some naan for you, sweet and salty..."

  Luo Chen listened with lowered eyes, biting his lip hard.

   "Okay, let's go early." Governor Luo interrupted Lichou.

Luo Sheng accompanied Luo Dadu to send Luo Chen and others to the wharf in the suburbs of Beijing, pointed to Uncle Xing and said, "Uncle Xing is the uncle of the accountant of the wine shop, and he happened to be going back to the south. , is also a reference."

  Watching several people board the boat and gradually sail away from the shore, Governor Luo and Luo Sheng stood where they were.

  Chaoyang coated the black boat and the people on board with gold, Sheng Sanlang desperately waved at Luo Sheng and shouted: "Cousin, I will return when grandma gets well!"
