The rain crackled and hit the streets, the rain fell, there were almost no pedestrians in the streets, an ox cart stopped under an official eaves, and a woman with a little powder sat in the carriage, with a sad expression, it was the eldest princess. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A guard who also served as a coachman looked over from time to time, and then looked into the distance and said, "Pei Zhenren's frame is here." ”
The eldest princess said, "You go and invite Pei Zhenren over." ”
"Yes!" the guard listened, and went to Pei Ziyun's ox cart.
"Childe, this rain came suddenly. Outside the carriage, Ren Wei was wearing a coat and driving the car, and the rain hit the stone slab, crisp and loud,
"You're prepared. Pei Ziyun looked at Ren Wei and said.
"It's not that I'm prepared, it's that the ox carts carry their coats no matter what the weather, especially in this summer, when no one knows when the showers will come. ”
Ren Wei was talking, suddenly a person blocked the road, frightened and hurriedly shouted to stop, fortunately the cow was docile, the car stopped, and asked: "Who are you? Why did you suddenly block the road." ”
The samurai who blocked the way said, "Mr. Ren, but Pei Zhenren's frame?
It was raining a lot, but it was the person who could hear clearly that it was the eldest princess, Pei Ziyun opened his eyes in the car, saw Ren Wei open the curtain of the car, and asked, "Childe, is it the eldest princess......"
"Okay, I see, let's get over there. Pei Ziyun said that when the car arrived at the official eaves, he got out of the car, and saw several guards near the ox cart, and it was the eldest princess who saw it.
The eldest princess looked haggard, worried in her eyes, seemed to be angry, and deeply disappointed, and watched Pei Ziyun get into the car, so she ordered: "Go home!"
The ox cart started, the incense in the carriage continued to rise, the two did not speak, the eldest princess looked at the window, the rain hit the bluestone floor, the water splashed, crackling, it seemed to be music.
After a long time, the eldest princess looked back, there seemed to be tears in the corners of her eyes, and said, "Chiba is sick." ”
Hearing this, Pei Ziyun's heart sank, and he seemed to have a faint pain, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "What is the disease, have you asked for a doctor?"
Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, the eldest princess turned her head and glared fiercely: "You know it when you see it, why ask, is it that Qianye is sick, you don't even want to look at it?"
Pei Ziyun didn't speak, just sighed, the rain outside hit harder, and when he arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, someone immediately greeted him with an umbrella, and when he reached the steps, there was a corridor to move, and he couldn't even get a little rain in the mansion.
All the way to the small building, a few maids greeted her, and it was a blessing without making a sound, and the eldest princess turned around at this time and said to Pei Ziyun: "You go in, Chiba is inside." ”
When he said this, his eyes turned red.
Pei Ziyun was a little nervous for some reason, hesitated, and the eldest princess suddenly became angry: "Qianye has become like this, you don't want to see her?
As soon as he spoke, tears flowed, and the grandmothers and maids beside him were silent.
Pei Ziyun didn't speak, and when he entered the small building, there was a maid standing in the corridor, her eyes were red, and she saw Pei Ziyun Yifu: "Real person, the little county lord is resting, you come with me." ”
Just went in and took a look, Pei Ziyun's heart sank, the little county lord was covered with a quilt on the sickbed, his cheeks were sunken, his hair was yellow, and the whole person was as thin as dry firewood, and he could only vaguely see the cuteness he was at the beginning.
It seems that on the night of the Lantern Festival, she still jumped on her side and said: "Brother Pei, my name is Qi Qianye, Brother Pei will not call me the little county lord in the future, just call me Chiba." ”
"Brother Pei, I'm really happy that you accompany me to watch the Lantern Festival. ”
"I wish the time was here forever. ”
Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun's eyes were also slightly red, there was a smell of medicine in the room, and he gently reached out and touched the cheek of the little county lord, who was groggy and the little county lord seemed to have a feeling, and whispered: "Brother Pei"
Only the voice was very small, and it was only possible to hear it clearly if he leaned his ears, Pei Ziyun approached and responded: "I know, I'm here." ”
"Brother Pei, I really like you, why don't you want me. Muttering in his dream, Pei Ziyun's heart ached, he stayed for a moment, sighed heavily, didn't stay, and retreated.
When she arrived in the corridor outside, the maid choked up: "The doctor said that the little county lord is a heart disease, and he doesn't have many diseases in his body, but he doesn't think about eating, sometimes he plays the piano, sometimes he smiles at the painting, and he gradually gets thinner and thinner, woo." ”
As the maid spoke, she cried in a low voice, and then the eldest princess came up, her eyes were red and swollen, she just looked straight at Pei Ziyun, waved her hand for a long time, and said, "Stand down." ”
The maid and the grandmother retreated silently, and the eldest princess looked at the sleeping little princess in the room, and went to the corridor farther away.
Pei Ziyun followed, there were small gardens on both sides of the corridor, the rain fell on the eaves, and then hit the bluestone slab, the eldest princess did not look back, arrived at a place, looked at a pool in a daze, and suddenly said: "Have you heard about me and Mei Yuma?"
Hearing this, Pei Ziyun was a little surprised, and nodded: "I've heard a little." ”
Qi Mei is a scholarly family, with 200 acres of land, is a person from the previous dynasty, proficient in scripture and history, respectful by nature, strategic, good at bow horses, and there are many people in the county at that time respect.
The world Geding, and later joined the emperor's camp, many times disaster relief, guarding, governance, the order is very strict, and won the love of the eldest princess, husband and wife are harmonious.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, and not long after the founding of the country, he died in an unknown way, drowning in the river.
The emperor posthumously crowned Xin Fengbo.
As if thinking of this, the eldest princess's eyes were red, and she stretched out her hand to follow the rain, which was nearly forty years old, her hands were as straight as green onions, and the rain splashed on her palms, one after another, fleetingly.
"I have no children attached to the horse, only one daughter, and Chiba is the pearl of my palm. ”
"Your talent is even higher than that of the attached horse, when you took the exam of the Yuan Dynasty, I also ordered to take it, it is indeed a pearl of words, even the imperial brother also said that this is the volume of Jinshi Hanlin. ”
"You don't envy wealth and wealth, and cultivate for your father, although I feel pity, I also think this is your filial piety. ”
"Your poems are famous, spread all over the world, for a while, it is difficult for people to reach, and the name is not far from Wenlin in the future, and I am still happy for you. ”
"As for you to calm the Kouce, open the customs, lead the army to quell the chaos, and in a blink of an eye, it will be peaceful, just as Zhong Qinbo said-I followed the emperor to conquer the south and the north, and saw that there were many people, and this person cleaned up the thieves and fought perfectly, so that the general changed his position, can such a person be perfect?"
"People have such talents, it's really amazing, in fact, you resigned from the marriage, I don't have much anger, poor friends can not be forgotten, and the wife of the bad chaff does not go to court - you have this talent to do tricks, what can I say?"
"Only more respectful. ”
The eldest princess said wistfully, but her eyes were frozen and stared at the rain scene, for a long time, word by word: "It's just that I didn't expect the little county lord to be so deep in love, and he is getting haggard day by day, although I appreciate you a lot, and the court also depends on you a lot, but the little princess is the meat of my heart, if something happens to her, I am not the eldest princess, just a mother who has lost her only sustenance, what do you say I should do?"
The eldest princess said, looking at Pei Ziyun with hatred in her eyes.
Pei Ziyun avoided this look, looked at the lotus leaves on the pond when the rain hit, stood still, and turned around: "Alas, ask what the situation in the world is, and teach people to live and die." ”
"Since ancient times, how can I be so affectionate and promised by the little county lord?"
"As a mother, you blame me, I really have nothing to say, I failed the little county lord. Pei Ziyun smiled bitterly, although he remembered her pitiful appearance, his heart couldn't help but surge, and he was emotional, and when he said this, his voice was also hard.
"Ask what the world is like, and teach people to promise life and death. ”
"Since ancient times, the love has not been long. ”
"You are really a good writer, but I don't want to hear this, I just want to know how you treat Chiba, you divorce your wife and marry Chiba, I will ask you to be the true monarch, and even the surging pressure of the government and the opposition, I will bear it for you. ”
"If you don't, you may feel that you are irreplaceable - to think so, you are wrong. The eldest princess spoke in a very low voice, and it came faintly, clearly and gloomy, and even Pei Ziyun shuddered.
After being silent for a long time, Pei Ziyun calmed down, stared at the rain gloomily, and said: "I have married a wife, and it is impossible to divorce her, but the princess has 2,000 stone (mu) of Lutian, and the county lord only has 800 mu of Lutian, and I have 5,000 mu of land on Liujin Island." ”
These words came suddenly, and they turned very stiff, and the eldest princess was stunned for a moment, only to understand, and instantly became angry: "Bold, you want Chiba to be a concubine?"
"People say you're bold, I don't believe it, but now I do. "This matter is related to royal decency, it is absolutely impossible, the eldest princess is really angry, and she has a murderous aura in her words.
Pei Ziyun had a fixed opinion, but he was not afraid, he just said lightly: "The county lord is impossible, but Qi Qianye can, and he is not a concubine, I am a Taoist, I don't need to respect many rules, I have a deep affection for me, I didn't expect Qianye to be so infatuated, I can't live up to it, that's the only way." ”
"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, the rule is death, people are alive, the little princess is so affectionate to me, and I have to come up with this idea as a last resort. ”
"Are you, do you want the little princess to cheat and marry you?" The eldest princess is a smart person, she immediately figured it out, her whole body trembled, she had never seen such a shameless person in her life, and she was about to be angry, so she listened to Pei Ziyun and asked coldly: "Eldest princess, have you read the legend of the immortals? For example, Shen Ziyuan recently? Why did the Xuanmen participate in the prince's rebellion, but the court was silent?"
The eldest princess was shocked, and sighed when she saw Pei Ziyun: "Of course, the court is not afraid, even if it is a cave, the will of the court can be broken, but the earth immortal has a body, suppressing a place, he is not edicted and has not been killed, the will is difficult to enter, and it is even more difficult to deprive it." ”
Seeing the eldest princess's pale face, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but turn his head to look at the hazy smoke and rain in the distance, and a bird flew by in the sky, killing flying insects, and then headed towards the nest.
Pei Ziyun paused: "And in the area of Qixuan Mountain, the power of the earth immortals has increased greatly, if there is a guerrilla war, even if there are thousands of officers and soldiers, it will be difficult to fight, and in the legend of the immortals, it is not even a risk of death to assassinate the king, is it not that the imperial court does not want to exterminate the transcendent worldly Daomen, not unwilling, but the price is too great." ”
"Before annihilating King Lu, you can't tear your face. When Pei Ziyun said this, he leaned over, low and hoarse: "King Lu has this person to help, like a tiger with wings, and I am the closest to the earth immortal among the Taoists standing in the Daxu camp." ”
Speaking, without waiting for the eldest princess to reply, Pei Ziyun bowed: "The minister retired." ”
The path in the house was paved with bluestone slabs, Pei Ziyun stepped up, slowly went away, only to see that there was no robe on his body, but within three feet, the raindrops fell, as if encountering a transparent barrier, falling obliquely, not wet at all.
Seeing this, the eldest princess's face changed.
