Chapter 6 The Heart Belongs
Song Duofu lifted the curtain and looked out, the flow of cars and horses became more and more dense, there were three or four people walking on foot, and there were also donkey carts, mule carts, and carriages.
Li Fei smiled: "Now I know that I am in a hurry, I have been waiting for you at home for half an hour, why didn't you come early?"
Song Duofu said in a hip laugh: "It's not that I can't get up, I'll never come to bed again in the future." ”
"Believe you!"
Li Fei's eyebrows raised slightly, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were gently raised, smiling with disgust. Song Duofu was stunned, holding Li Fei's hand with both hands, and said seriously this time: "Really, I will never be too late in the future, if I am too late in the future, you will leave me, don't wait for me." ”
Li Fei tightened Song Duofu's hand, and said softly: "It's boring to wander around alone, why don't I wait for you." I told the coachman to hurry slowly, there are many alleys here, and I can't stop the hitch. ”
Really what to say, Li Fei finished speaking, and heard a rapid horse roar on the left, and the donkey cart suddenly avoided to the right, and then heard the sound of something breaking, and the carriage collapsed a little to the left.
"What's going on......" Song Duofu was about to get up and open the door, but the driver of the Song family looked back and said busily: "The two girls don't move first, the wheel axle is about to break, I'll take something to support it first." ”
The Song family's donkey cart was kicked by the hooves of someone else's carriage, and the coachman over there also came down to support the wheels of the Song family's almost rolling out, and the two coachmen almost supported the carriage, Zhao Yanheng got down from the carriage, with a little schadenfreude smile, and said in a clear voice outside the donkey cart: "Two girls, hurry down, the car is about to fall." ”
The smiling faces of the gloating girls were all put away the moment they opened the door, Li Fei was fine, and Song Duofu almost lost his mind.
It was a young man who had not yet been weakly crowned, standing sideways with a bowful posture as tall and graceful as a green pine. His complexion is as white as jade, his eyebrows and eyes are black and clear, the bridge of his nose is very high, his thin lips are ruddy, it is a first-class good appearance, and the temperament of the whole person is like a piece of beautiful jade, warm and peaceful, and noble.
Song Duofu got out of the carriage first with his skirt in both hands, and when it was Li Fei's turn to get off the carriage, Zhao Yanheng's eyes were handed over, and his coachman Cheng Anguo's hand was loosened, the carriage tilted downward, Li Fei's feet slipped, and the whole person was about to fall down, Zhao Yanheng turned around and took a step and helped Li Fei as he wished.
Li Fei's mind was pure, and after standing firmly, he took a step back, and distanced himself from Zhao Yanheng before saying, "Thank you, son." ”
Zhao Yanheng felt that Li Fei's hands were white and slender, weak and boneless, and he wanted to take a few more shots, but of course this was not possible, seeing that Li Fei's eyes were still clear when he looked at him, he could only cough dryly, and apologized to Song Duofu, who was looking at his eyes shining: "It's all the recklessness of the subordinates, who kicked and broke the carriage of the two girls, it is better to be in the same car with Zaixia, where are the two girls going, I will send you over." ”
"Then it's a hassle childe. ”
Song Duofu immediately replied with a smile.
Li Fei sighed for the reserve that Song Duofu could never pretend, but got into Zhao Yanheng's carriage without objection.
The two girls sat next to each other, and got up with their legs next to each other, Song Duofu couldn't help but observe the handsome man in front of him, his eyes first fell on the jade pendant of the peach-colored jade doll on Zhao Yanheng's waist, and stared at it a few more times. Li Fei also followed Song Duofu's eyes to look at Zhao Yanheng's jade pendant carefully, and gently pulled Song Duofu's sleeve.
Zhao Yanheng held the jade pendant in his hand and nodded slightly to Li Fei.
There was nothing to say all the way, and the carriage arrived at the teahouse that Li Fei had booked in advance, and Song Duofu got out of the carriage and finally couldn't hold back and said softly to Li Fei: "I saw the shape of the jade pendant carving clearly." My mother wore a jade doll, which was begged for by Baoquan Temple, and I looked at it every day, and I really gave birth to a fat doll in the coming year. ”
Song Duofu is a little lacking in heart, Li Fei nodded Song Duofu's eyes and said softly: "Don't look at people like this in the future, people like him carry such jade pendants, although they don't look very compatible, maybe he is also anxious about the heir, how embarrassing you can see others." ”
Zhao Yanheng seemed to be also interested in seeing the appearance of King Xiang's honor guard, so he booked the same teahouse and waited, and the two sat opposite each other, and no one bothered anyone.
At the gate of Kunming, civil and military officials of all sizes came earlier than the common people, and stood at the gate of the city before dawn. The four giants are the second master of the Qianguo Mansion, Guo Kun, the general of the expedition to the west, Qian Tong, the eunuch of the town, Lu Zhen, the political secretary of Yunnan, Zhou Yuanji, the governor of Yunnan, Guo Kun is cold, and the old god Lu Zhen is there, Qian Tong and Zhou Yuanji are not shy about standing together and laughing, very affectionate.
At noon, the carriage of King Xiang was slowly drawn by four pure white high-headed horses, and the 'King Xiang' sitting in the carriage avoided the officials and galloped directly into the city.
Looking at several pairs of soldiers with halberds and swords, neatly groomed, tall and straight, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, straddled the horses, gradually making the spectators dye the respect of slaughter, at the last moment before King Xiang's carriage passed through guò, there was a middle-level military general riding a black horse with shiny hair, and came to inspect for the last time.
He was dressed in armor, his shoulders were wide and his waist was wide, his facial features were rigid and solemn, the skin on his face was red by the blazing sun, he came over majestically like an unsheathed sword, Li Fei leaned down slightly, his eyes had long stayed on him, making sure that he was safe and sound after several months of fighting, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle like water, and his smile was dyed in his heart, and it was naturally reflected on his face, like a peach blossom.
Zhao Yanheng watched Li Fei's face change from waveless to joyful and gradually frowned, and then suddenly shifted to Li Fei's line of sight, and then saw clearly that the military uniform worn by the military general was the military uniform of the five products of thousands of households, and it was the grade of Li Fei's husband in the previous life.
That military general had a stern face, and when he was closest to Li Fei, he smeared a soft halo. He was on the horse, Li Fei looked up, and there was a tacit understanding between them that attracted each other.
At that moment, being made a joke by God, Zhao Yanheng's heart seemed to be picked by a needle, but then, Zhao Yanheng stretched his brows, lowered his eyebrows, and a pair of eyes became deep and distant.
After the person walked over, Song Duofu smirked on the side, and his fingers scratched Li Fei's face like smoke and said: "I'll just say, why don't I invite you to come, you have always disliked the crowding of people." ”
Li Fei was also hearty, and smiled warmly: "Aren't you like that when you see Xu Zhonglian." ”
Song Duofu and Xu Zhonglian made a marriage contract a few years ago, and Song Duofu said in surprise: "Your family has already made a decision? What kind of person is he? Say it quickly, my mother has said it several times behind her back, why is your family not anxious about your big affairs, it turned out to be silent." ”
"It's not decided yet, but the elders in the family have already seen him as a junior. Li Fei's eyes flashed and said: "He is a thousand households in the guard, surnamed Lu." ”
Song Duofu still said with an expression of disbelief: "I know that your grandfather and uncle are all scholars, and your two sisters-in-law are also from the family of scholars, I thought that your family would definitely choose a scholar for you." ”
"I don't have to pick anyone, it's just about character. Li Fei smiled casually and didn't talk much about his and his family's decisions.
When the honor guard of Xiangwangfu passed by, the people along the way knelt down to greet him, Li Fei turned his head sideways, and did not see Zhao Yanheng's figure.
After King Xiang entered the city of Kunming, he did not see the officials of Yunnan for three days, but only asked his subordinates to hand over the 200,000 loads of grain and grass escorted over to the local officials.
Dong Rang was unhappy for his master and said: "The court only allocated 200,000 loads of grain and grass to the prince, if it wasn't for the prince's escort, I don't know how much would be deducted from various places along the way, but the prince handed over 200,000 loads of grain and grass, a lot of them." ”
Cheng Anguo's ancestor was a soldier, so Cheng Anguo still coldly persuaded him: "The imperial court owes the Yunnan Commander to the envoy one million loads of grain and grass, this time General Guo has besieged Sijifa in Mengyang, but because he can't wait for the grain and grass that the court promised to allocate and retreat, some complaints in the army are inevitable." ”
Zhao Yanheng didn't take these complaints to heart at all, and said to Cheng Anguo: "Have you done your business?"
Zhao Yanheng handed over the house to Cheng Anguo, Cheng Anguo thought about admonishing again, but he was silent for a while and said: "After spending three times the silver, the family will move out tomorrow." ”
Zhao Yanheng nodded with satisfaction and looked at Dong Rang.
Dong Rang is a eunuch with a round face and fat ears, small eyes and a flat nose, and he looks very inferior, and his wrinkled face is even more ugly at this time: "Master, I haven't slept well for three days, my shoes have worn out a pair, I have found more than a dozen tooth wives and hundreds of children." Even if she is a child, since she has been reduced to the point of buying and selling, she has become an object, the aura has been worn out, and it is impossible to develop a delicate and squeamish, the character of the baby girl, and then she has to look similar to the master, where did the master come from, and who deserves to be similar in appearance. Lord's sister, that can't be smashed with silver. ”
"There are so many nonsense, isn't it just that the errand was not done?" Zhao Yanheng also sympathized with Dong Rang's difficulties, and gave him a trick: "If you can't buy a child, you can go to your new father to find a way." ”
Qian Tong, the eunuch of Yunnan, had just accepted Dong Rang as his son, and Dong Rang's eyes gurgled: "Trouble his old man, the master's affairs can't be covered sooner or later." ”
Qian Tong is the emperor's ears and eyes in Yunnan!
Zhao Yanheng looked up at the northeast corner, and said softly and sweetly in his heart: "I will tell my father myself, I met a girl here, I fell in love, and I can't return to the court as scheduled!"
