Chapter 373
Yueniang naturally knew that not too many people would know about what she came out of the dark prison, Qin Qianman didn't know about it? She patted her brother who was angry and his eyes were green, "What kind of anger are you, can I look down on the insidious villain like the prince." Your sister's eyes are high. Why are you angry. ”
"Of course I was angry, so many people were listening at the time. If this kid hadn't stopped me, I would have tore that stinky girl's mouth. Fu Mingxuan stood up and looked at Yueniang very seriously, "If it's someone else, it's fine, but it's you who she scolds." My brother is already very self-blaming for not being able to protect you, how can you let others slander you like this. ”
Yueniang felt very warm when she heard his serious words, "Brother, you are so good to me." ”
"Little fool, you call me brother, I'm not good to you, who is good to you. Fu Mingxuan smiled on his face, "It's a pity ......"
"Since you are so good to me, then you are not in a hurry to practice martial arts today, you just came back from outside, it should be fine, why don't you go out with me." My brother took me out, and my father would have agreed. ”
Fu Mingxuan: "......"
He looked up and pointed to the sky, "Look what that is." ”
Yueniang was confused by his startled tone, and sure enough, she looked up at the sky, there was nothing, and there was no one in front of her when she looked down.
"......" What about her twenty-four filial piety brother, and what about the pet sister crazy demon.
Everyone has their own things to do, and Yueniang just can't find things to do. She went back to the courtyard where she lived infinitely depressed, with the pastoral song in her mind, and she didn't know what had happened to her.
Yueniang's yard is specially cleaned up, next to the bamboo forest, very quiet. Now in this season, she can still hear the birds chirping, and she walks on the road boredly, looking down at the stones.
After a few days, the whip stiffness on his body was almost stuttered, and although he still couldn't make much movement, there was basically no problem.
Xie Bai sat on a tree, looking at Yueniang's unhappy appearance with her head buried in her head, and felt very funny.
How old is she? Thirteen, still a child.
Yueniang didn't notice that someone was watching her in the distance, and it wasn't until she got closer that she saw Xie Bai sitting on a tree pole hanging his legs, looking at her with a smile.
Yueniang felt happy, because she had finally found someone who could play with her without nagging her, "Xie Bai, how did you get here? Why didn't I see you in the front yard just now?"
She said a lot of things in one breath, Xie Bai looked at her with a smile like that, until she finished speaking, and then said, "I sneaked in, doesn't your father hate me for associating with you now, so I had to come secretly." ”
"Nonsense, why does my dad hate it, obviously he is very grateful to you for saving me. ”
Yueniang hurriedly denied it, and looked at Xie Bai inexplicably, "Okay, you just come in through the front door, if you sneak in like this, if you are discovered by your father and sue your old man, you will have to be a meal if you don't say it, it's not worth it." Dad is probably afraid that you will take me out again, and he will not stop us from coming and going. ”
Xie Bai smiled and shook his head, his good-looking facial features were unparalleled in the shade of the tree, "I won't tease you." Have you heard about Princess Madrigal?"
Yueniang nodded, "I heard my father and Mrs. Lin mention it just now, but they won't tell me more things, and I don't know what's going on?"
Xie Bai's robe sitting on the branch was also hanging, looking like a dashing young knight. His eyebrows and eyes are very warm and good-looking, but there is a kind of helpless sadness at this moment, "The princess may be getting married." ”
"Huh?" Yueniang was taken aback, "She's not an adult yet, so it's impossible to marry now, and she doesn't seem to have chosen a horse." ”
Yueniang was a little strange, and she didn't believe it, "You won't have seen me for too long, make fun of me, Pastoral is about the same size as me, where is the age of marriage." ”
If he hadn't seen Pei Yi, Xie Bai felt that he might be like Yueniang, thinking that the world around him was this world. Actually, they're all too well protected.
He stretched out his hand and patted the place beside him, "Do you want to sit down, the scenery from here is beautiful." ”
From a high vantage point, everything you see is small.
Yueniang nodded, "Okay, but I can't go up now." ”
Xie Bai then jumped down from the tree, stretched out his hand and hugged her to his chest, and jumped on the branch on tiptoe.
When they were on the guest together before, the master was obviously the most talented across himself, and Xie Bai was at the same level as her when he was learning light skills, how long has it been, and his light skills have been so good.
Yueniang thought, Xie Bai is so fragrant.
Her face was slightly red, she got out of Xie Bai's arms, and sat down side by side with Xie Bai very weakly.
Her body is very fragrant, and she doesn't know what she smells, not at all like the fragrance in the fat powder shop, but it seems to be born out. Xie Bai smelled the fragrance and felt a lot more relieved, "Haven't you been bored these past few days?" ”
Xie Bai's voice was very soft, with a somewhat upward smile.
Yueniang twisted her head slightly, seeing that he was also looking at herself, she was stunned for a moment, and then looked back at her very daringly, "It's boring." I have nothing to do alone, and the injuries on my body do not allow me to practice martial arts at home, my brother does not accompany me, and my sister is also married. Hey......"
Xie Bai wanted to laugh, "Yes, but I don't think you're too idle." ”
Yueniang rolled her eyes, "You are swaying my IQ, saying, what the hell is going on with Madrigal? I have been confined to my home recently and can't go out, and I don't know what's going on outside." ”
"She is going to marry to the Northland, and this matter is decided by the queen's mother. ”
Xie Bai's gaze suddenly made Yueniang feel painful, "So suddenly, what happened, you have to tell me, don't rush me to death, okay." ”
"You should know about the looting of the grain and grass sent to the south for disaster relief. Yesterday there was a disturbance among the victims, and they kidnapped Princess Pastoral who left the palace, but this matter was too big, although the princess was saved, but ...... The queen felt that the face of the heavenly family was no longer there and could no longer let the princess stay in the capital, so she asked her daughter to marry the Khan of the Northland, and the emperor had agreed. ”
"......" Yueniang's mouth can already be stuffed with an egg.
What kind of divine logic is this nun sister, Pastoral was kidnapped, she is a victim, okay. These people actually think that the kidnapped madrigal will disgrace them and become mentally retarded.
But Yueniang then frowned, this is not normal, why did Pastoral Ge stay in the palace so well.
"The princess will also bring someone to protect her when she leaves the palace, how can she be kidnapped by the disaster victims? The disaster victims from the south have all flocked to the capital? But how do they know when the princess will leave the palace? No, no, no, how can the disaster victims know the princess?"
Yueniang's mind crossed a lot of questions at once, she held her head very uncomfortably, not knowing what kind of this was.
Xie Bai looked at Yueniang with unexpected eyes, as if he didn't expect her to be so transparent, but at a glance, everyone could see that there was a problem in this.
He suddenly leaned his head on Yueniang's shoulder, and he didn't use too much strength, but his black hair spread out in front of Yueniang's eyes like ink.
She didn't expect Xie Bai to suddenly lean over, and her body stiffened suddenly, "Xie ...... Xie Bai, you, you, are you okay?"
She couldn't see his face, and she didn't dare to look at it, Yueniang heard her breathing getting heavier and heavier, and she felt that her face was also warm, but Xie Bai didn't notice her abnormality, just leaned her head on Yueniang's shoulder, and her voice was heavy and sad, "Let me lean on for a while, just for a while." ”
Yueniang wasn't sure if Xie Bai was so abnormal because of the pastoral matter, she just felt sad, and she was even more grateful for the pastoral song that was inexplicably used as a fig leaf.
Something must have happened to him.
"Can you tell me what's going on? Yueniang tried her best to ensure that she wouldn't be too strange, "Xie Bai, I won't talk nonsense." ”
"Yueniang, you say...... Can people forgive if they do something they can't help themselves? ”
"Some of them are okay, but some of them are not. "For example, her Ake, he can make different choices and take different paths, or he can be like a stranger to her, but he uses her trust and friendship, and she will never forgive him.
"But Yueniang, there are many things in this world that we can't decide. "The dilemma is not terrible, what is terrible is that on the one hand is your own conscience, and on the other hand is your own home.
He had no choice, and he couldn't turn a blind eye to Pei Yi's death.
Caught in such a dilemma, Xie Bai was extremely painful, but he didn't know what to do.
Yueniang didn't dare to ask Xie Bai what happened, so she didn't dare to ask. His reaction was as if he had died once, and that Xie Bai was too strange to her.
In fact, before she met Pei Yi, although Xie Bai's world was occasionally bloody, it was still very sunny in general, but Pei Yi was like the little stone that broke the rare peace in her world. Realizing how powerless he is, such feelings are not terrible, what is terrible is that he wants to change.
He was convinced of everything Pei Yi said.
Regardless of the reason, a person who puts life and death aside, and is unwilling to give up his faith and persistence in the end, is a person who stands up to the sky.
Xie Bai was very respectful of that kind of person, but he didn't know what he could do for that young man, so he felt very guilty, but what made Xie Bai even more uncomfortable was that everyone turned a blind eye to that young man.
He is obviously Pei Shengjie's son, guarding one side and defending the country, but in the end he ended up like that, how can he be willing.
The two of them sat on the tree all the time, the sun set, and Yueniang's stomach was also hungry.
Goo –
Yueniang's stomach screamed, very embarrassed.
People finally hurt the spring and autumn, and her stomach is so bent.
But when Xie Bai looked at her, Yueniang's stomach began to bark again.
Xie Bai: "......"
He jumped from under the tree with Yueniang in his arms, a little funny and a little moved, "Silly girl, why don't you say it when you're hungry." ”
Yueniang saw that he was finally no longer depressed, so she cautiously spoke, "I just seemed to be asleep." ”
Xie Bai was speechless again, he was a little suspicious of what this girl was thinking in her head, sitting on the tree and looking at the scenery could actually sleep. Xie Bai sighed impatiently, "I sneaked in, so I can't go to the main gate, there are few people in your yard, go to your yard, it is estimated that the next person has already prepared the food."
Yueniang sighed, a little unhappy.
She thought Xie Bai would take her out......
Yueniang's maid rings were specially selected by Mrs. Lin, all of them were the same, seeing that Gongzi Xie was completely concerned about his appearance in the wind of Yushu, he didn't care why he appeared in Yueniang's yard, seeing that the two of them were still talking and laughing.
Yueniang was hungry, and as soon as she entered the door, she directly asked Yahuan to bring the food. Xie Bai looked at her straightforward appearance, and his heart was both happy and sad, happy that Yueniang was still so innocent.
But Xie Bai was sad that she was involved in the rights and wrongs of the capital.
Such a cute girl should be held in the palm of everyone's hands, how can she be treated like this.
"After these days, how is the injury?"
He had never asked how her wound was, and now his thoughts came back, but he couldn't hold back after all.
Yueniang glanced at Xie Bai twice, nodded, and bent her crescent-like eyes with a smile, "It's good, the doctors of the Fu family are quite skilled, and my injuries won't hurt anymore at night now." I guess if I raise it for a while, I'll be the same person I used to be. “
Xie Bai smiled, "Aren't you the same you used to be?"
"Naturally not, I think I can pay Jiayue can be regarded as able to write and martial arts, but now I can only write and not martial arts, which is very painful. ”
Yueniang glanced at him mischievously, "Xie Bai, my cook's skills are still good, right." ”
Well, to put it well, there must be a conspiracy. Xie Bai blinked, and was suddenly quite surprised, "You just said that your wound won't hurt at night now, so your wound will hurt before, right?" ”
He sighed, "Yueniang, I can't bear it because of the old general's favor for you, but he hasn't gone to the trouble of the prince until now, so you should have stopped him." Why are you bothered, the prince is unreasonable in this matter. ”
He found that he really loved to sigh today, and this was the first time that he had done so.
On the table, the meal had run out, Yueniang snorted with satisfaction, looked at Xie Bai's face with clear eyebrows, and then looked at his white clothes, as well as the standard dress of the Jianghu people, "People say that you can't be called a hero if you wear white clothes." I think you have the face and style of a hero, in fact, I think your brain is more stylish than your people. ”
"......" Xie Bai felt that the girl was turning around and praising him for being very smart.
"What kind of expression do you have, I just said that you are a hero in white, why do you have that expression. Yueniang stood up and ran in like a fire outside, "Miss Xie Gongzi, the master is here." “
Fu Ruiyuan came over at this time, did he know that Xie Bai was here?
Yueniang's face turned white all of a sudden, "Hide quickly, if you let your father see you here, he will kill you." ”
Xie Bai thought about it, he had sneaked to someone's house, and he had been with someone's daughter for so long, anyone who knew about such a thing would be angry, Fu Ruiyuan was actually a bit old-fashioned, and he sued him from his old man before, and it was obvious that he hadn't broken his bones.
Xie Bai got up and said goodbye to Yueniang, and his body jumped into the air and disappeared into the wall.
The Fu Mansion is not a big family, and it is impossible to guard it layer by layer like the palace.
Fu Ruiyuan came in with Xie Bai, although he didn't see Xie Bai, but the two pairs of bowls on the table that hadn't had time to clean up were almost there.
Yueniang was stunned, she was very anxious when she heard that her father was coming over just now, and she actually forgot to dispose of all these physical evidence. Fu Ruiyuan's face suddenly became very ugly, and just as he was about to speak, Yueniang's clever maid caught up and whispered very scaredly, "General, just now Miss said that she was too boring, and she wanted to let the slave and maid accompany her to eat." You...... You don't blame Miss. It's all slaves and maids who are ignorant, so punish me. ”
The expression of that little girl ring can be described as rich, even Yueniang would believe it if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.
Fu Ruiyuan really just glanced at her suspiciously twice and waved his hand, "It's okay, this kind of thing is your young lady's ignorance, it has nothing to do with you, don't blame yourself." ”
Although he is a person who does not scold his subordinates, he still has the most basic concept of dignity and inferiority, and it is not a good thing for subordinates to eat at the same table with their masters. It's just that thinking that her daughter suffered so much grievance some time ago, and now there is no one to accompany her, with her temperament, she can't stand it.
Forgivable circumstances, natural forgiveness.
Seeing that she had escaped, Yueniang exhaled and hurriedly asked Fu Ruiyuan to sit down, "Daddy has eaten?"
"Nope. I'm going out to socialize tonight, and I heard that you're bored, so come and have a look. ”
Yueniang hurriedly shook her head, "How can my daughter be bored, I don't know how good it is." ”
What are you kidding, if you really let Fu Ruiyuan know how uncomfortable she is idle now, it is estimated that she will not want to go out.
Yueniang just told herself that she can be literate and martial arts, that's just blowing, with her temperament, it's okay to be martial, but Wen is really not good.
"Yes. Fu Ruiyuan didn't believe it, "Then you tell your father what you've been doing these days." ”
It's really hard to say.
Yueniang can't say that she has been sharpening short arrows these days, and she wants to find the prince's field.
She no longer tried to persuade Fu Ruiyuan to take her out, but she hadn't seen her eldest brother for two days, and she didn't know where he had gone.
Yueniang asked her father, "I haven't seen my eldest brother for a long time, where did he go?"
"I asked your brother to go out on errands, and he should be back tomorrow. ”
"Oh, that's great, I hope my brother will come back and remember to bring me something to eat." ”
Fu Ruiyuan clicked twice on her head, "You know how to eat, you don't know how to read books, girls don't move their hands and feet, read more books, and be a female celebrity, what's wrong." ”
Look, it's just a lot of work to get through the door, and it's starting to nag again.
Yueniang smiled, and she didn't plan to continue talking to her long-winded father.
Fu Ruiyuan happened to be in a hurry to eat someone else's Hongmen banquet, so he really didn't have time to 'care' about his daughter again, and told her a few words to be good and not cause trouble before leaving.
“…… Miss, my lord is becoming more and more uneasy about you now. Yahuan and the others walked away before they came forward and sighed, "Be good at one bite at a time, I see that you will be in trouble in the future." ”
Yueniang looked at the girl ring beside her hatefully, this girl really can't open a pot, if she wasn't injured now, she would have to beat her.
……
The next day, it wasn't very good.
Probably due to the impact of the disaster in the south, it rained throughout the capital.
As a result, the people of the capital did not go out much, and only the shops with inherent facades on the streets were still open, but there was no one.
The people of the Jingwei Mansion were fully armed, knocking on the door and interrogating them from door to door, as long as it was a doctor, all of them were recruited, and those people lowered their heads and did not know what was happening in front of the Guandi Temple at that time.
In fact, the entire capital, including the imperial court, didn't know what was going on in Jiangnan, which should have been a rich and rival country.
Lost contact, if half of the empire is located, there is no news back.
The doctors were taken away by the people of the Jingwei Mansion, and those people were directly in charge of the security of the entire capital, and in this place where the powerful gathered, they were just a relative of the emperor and the country, and they would not put any ordinary people in their eyes.
Although the capital is large, there are only a few people who are serious about practicing medicine in the government.
Those people were not enough, so Jingwei arrested those traveling doctors, including people from the suburbs of Beijing, and they made up a thousand people.
Jingwei couldn't fit so many people, so Jingwei took all the people to the military training ground on the outskirts of the city, which was the garrison of the forbidden army, and Sicai was very tightly guarded.
After arresting so many doctors, the people of the entire capital are afraid, and they don't know if there are any new rules in the imperial court.
On the one hand, the government sent a notice saying that the doctors who had been recruited were to be sent to the south to treat the people who were to be killed by the plague.
On one side, the crown prince Zhao Mingqi was in charge of coordinating the affairs of these doctors and the guards.
Everyone didn't know about these things, but when they heard that they were going to the south or to relieve the plague, everyone was stupid.
Those who have connections or have a foundation in the family have begun to drag people and money, trying to get people out of the law, and it doesn't matter that they start to discuss running away.
It is true that saving the dead and helping the wounded is the vocation of these doctors, but they are also human beings, since ancient times, the plague has been the most terrible and fastest thing in the world to take people's lives, no one can cure the plague, they don't want to die.
So, in just one day, the whole capital was in chaos, some were dragged out of the guards with a lot of money, but they were rich and poor without being at home, some couldn't get out, the family was angry, and some escaped and didn't dare to go home and hide outside the city.
The next day, because the matter had not been coordinated, the prince reported it to the emperor in the court.
"Father, when those people heard that they were going to the south to treat the plague, they were all frightened, and they were all fleeing, and their children were lying ...... If the son does not suppress the public, he is really ashamed of your heavy payment. ”
The order was forced by the empress to the emperor, but no matter what, the ten thousand acres of land south of the Yangtze River are the heart of the empire, and it is naturally impossible for him to give up.
