I listened to the wind outside, and I also listened to the noise mixed with the windβsiege, fighting, although I couldn't see it with my eyes, but I could almost close my eyes and describe the war in the distance.
But tonight, I can't pay too much attention to the war.
Even the two people in front of them, although they launched this siege, may not even be completely concerned about the result of the siege at this moment.
After all, having someone around you who is not of the same mind as you is very difficult for any person in a position of power to accept, and if you don't find this person, it's hard to imagine what you will do in the future.
Pei Yuanxiu must be very eager to catch this person.
And Han Ruoshi, she sat in the center of the room, although she was also a pregnant woman, her 'spirit' was obviously much better than mine, although she didn't say a word, her eyes were bright, and she raised her head to look at us from time to time while 'fiddling' the tips of her nails.
Pei Yuanxiu sat on the edge of the couch, put his hands on his knees and closed his eyes to recuperate.
And I was lying on the couch, the half bowl of soup 'medicine' I had just drunk had already taken effect, my eyelids were heavy, and my sleepiness was coming one after another, but I forced myself to keep myself from falling into a coma, and sometimes I was so sleepy that I pinched my big 'leg' with one hand in the quilt, and I was trembling in pain.
After all, I don't want to wake up and everything is a foregone conclusion.
Whether it is good or bad, I must see it with my own eyes and experience it for myself, otherwise I am afraid that I will regret it and make irreparable mistakes.
Seeing me shaking my head and raising my head again, Pei Yuanxiu sighed, opened his eyes and turned his head to look at me: "Why don't you sleep yet?" β
I don't look him in the eye: "Can't sleep." β
"Didn't you drink the 'medicine' just now?"
"Probably, only half a bowl."
"Then, I'll have someone boil you a little more?"
I shook my head: "It's already the middle of the night, and it's useless to drink it." Besides-" I said while glancing at Han Ruoshi, who was silent: "Didn't Madame sleep too?" β
When Han Ruoshi heard me talk about her, she turned around and said with a smile: "I'm waiting to see tonight's big play." β
I laughed and said, "Well, I'll join in the fun." β
Han Ruoshi laughed.
The two of us really seem to be waiting for a good show to be staged, although I have been listening with bated breath, the sound of killing in the distance is endless, I guess that there will be at least four people attacking Cangzhou City tonight, so this war, whether it is to catch the internal 'traitor' or not, for the soldiers and civilians of Cangzhou City who have been out of food for a period of time, this is a battle of life and death.
But I still had to keep my face calm.
Pei Yuanxiu looked at the two of us, did not speak, and after being silent for a while, he got up and walked to the 'door' and pushed the 'door' out.
At this time, I heard a burst of human voices outside.
He leaned over the fence and looked down and asked, "Who?" β
Someone below immediately replied, but the voice was too small for me to hear clearly, Han Ruoshi also frowned, got up and walked out, Pei Yuanxiu looked back at me, and said, "Old Taijun Zhang is here." β
When I heard this, I hurriedly got up and walked out.
When I looked down, I saw a burst of lights shining in front of me, and many people came over around the old man, she was noisy all the way, as if she was looking for someone, I glanced at Pei Yuanxiu, and hurriedly went downstairs without saying anything.
As soon as I got downstairs, I heard Mrs. Zhang's anxious voice: "Where are they?" Why aren't any of them gone? β
"Ancestor, don't worry."
"Can you not be in a hurry? My sons, and my grandchildren, what about people? β
"Ancestor, they're going to do something important."
"What's so important, it's all going to sleep at night, and what's going on outside?"
β¦β¦
I saw that this old man was getting more and more anxious, just like a confused old man, looking for his children and grandchildren in horror, if it wasn't for Song Xuan saying those words to me before, I can't believe that she was pretending to be stupid. Thinking back to everything she had said to me before, it seemed like an old man's boring nagging on the surface, but I don't know how much of her mind was in it.
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but feel a burst of admiration in her heart - she didn't know how much perseverance she had used to pretend to be crazy and stupid for so long, deceive her children and grandchildren who got along day and night, and knew that the righteous choice was on the emperor's side.
I walked over and said softly, "Old lady." β
As soon as she heard my voice, she looked up at me: "Daughter-in-law'?" β
I heard Pei Yuanxiu's breathing sinking beside me, but he didn't say anything, just walked with me to the front of Mrs. Zhang, and the old man grabbed me: "It's good if you're here." What about them? Xuan'er, what about them? β
I looked into her eyes, and although the night had been lit up by the lanterns in the hands of the maids' attendants, all the light together was not as bright as the old man's eyes.
It's just that her hands are very cold, probably from that garden all the way to this side, and the wind has already blown cold, I also reached out to cover the back of her hand, and said softly: "They went to run errands, and they will be back in a while." β
"Huh?"
She seemed to be a little relieved, nodded slightly, Pei Yuanxiu also stepped forward, and as soon as Old Taijun Zhang saw him, he immediately saluted: "His Royal Highness the Prince." β
Pei Yuan said: "The old man is so late, why don't you sleep?" β
The little maid who was holding Old Taijun Zhang said softly: "The old ancestor originally slept lightly, but just now a sudden noise woke her up, and she has been clamoring to come over to find the old master, and the young master. β
"......" Pei Yuanxiu was silent for a moment, and then said, "They are doing things for me." The old man wants to wait for them to come back, so it is better to go upstairs and sit, the house is warm, and we will wait for them together. β
Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince." β
I helped the old man to slowly climb to the second floor, Han Ruoshi stood at the 'door', took two steps back at this time, and watched everyone help the old man to sit on the couch. Old Taijun Zhang looked up at Pei Yuanxiu again: "I don't know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent them to do something important." When will they be back? β
Pei Yuanxiu probably didn't have time to make up this, so he was silent for a while.
At this time, a smiling, cool voice said: "They, go and catch the 'traitor'." β
Looking back, it was Han Ruoshi who walked over slowly.
"'Treacherous' scheming?" Mrs. Zhang suddenly frowned at the white brows of the 'flower' and said, "What 'traitor'?" β
"'Treacherous', don't you know that your old man doesn't understand? is a villain who eats inside and outside, the two ends of the first rat, a 'traitor' thief! β
"Oh? And such people? β
"Of course, such a person is the most hated, and people in the world can't wait to kill him as soon as possible." Han Ruoshi hooked a sneer at the corner of her mouth, and walked over step by step: "Old man, what do you think you should do if you catch such a person?" β
My brow furrowed.
Han Ruoshi, she dug that pit for me to jump in before, and now she is digging a pit for this old man!
I was about to stop her, but Mrs. Zhang had already raised her clear eyes, and her gaze flickered slightly under the candlelight: "Didn't you just say that everyone in the world wants to kill her quickly?" Such a 'traitor' thief should be killed to set an example. β
Han Ruoshi's eyes suddenly crooked with laughter: "The old man really understands the righteousness. β
As she spoke, her tone was a little colder: "I hope to stay for a while, the old man can still understand the righteousness so well." β
"Ruoshi!" At this time, probably Pei Yuanxiu also felt that her words were a little too 'exposed', and shouted heavily, Han Ruoshi glanced up at him, and immediately made a look of knowing that he was wrong, lowered his head and took a step back.
At this time, it was Zhang Lao Taijun who looked up at Pei Yuanxiu and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is worthy of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the people under this hand, even if they are maids, are so sensible." β
Han Ruoshi's face was suddenly stunned.
Zhang Lao Taijun said: "The emperor has often praised His Royal Highness the Prince's homework articles, his virtue is profound, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can not only cultivate his own body, but also teach these subordinates by words and deeds, which is really amazing." β
ββ¦β¦β
Pei Yuanxiu didn't speak for a while, and Han Ruoshi gritted her teeth, her face turned blue with anger, and she stomped her foot fiercely after a while.
I sat on the side, although I was nervous, seeing that Mrs. Zhang actually didn't forget to pretend to be crazy and stupid at this time to ridicule Han Ruoshi - although she had done this before, but I thought she really didn't know anyone, and now I know that she did it on purpose - I couldn't help but purse the corners of my lips.
She turned her head to me again and said, "Daughter-in-law, you have to use such a girl in charge." β
I nodded, "Hey." β
Our singing and harmony had already made Han Ruoshi so angry that she couldn't breathe, and I could feel that she was staring at the two of us with almost resentful eyes, eager to see two 'holes' in our bodies.
Ridicule to ridicule, joke to joke, after laughing, my mood still sank again.
Mrs. Zhang knew that they were going to catch the 'traitor', but now, no matter if we were not ventilated, under the noses of Pei Yuanxiu and Han Ruoshi, we didn't dare to say or do more, so we could only wait for the results outside.
The old man's hand gently caressed the back of my hand, as if to help me calm my rapid breathing.
I glanced at her, and she smiled softly at me.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside.
Although when Mrs. Zhang came over just now, there were many people talking and footsteps, but this time, it was not like them, but it was as if a group of people were noisily coming in, and they were almost in trouble.
Pei Yuanxiu immediately walked out, Han Ruoshi followed, and I held Zhang Laotaijun's arm and walked outside the 'door'.
The four of them stood in the corridor, leaning on the fence and looking down, and sure enough, it was a group of people, and they were really noisy, escorting a few black-clothed 'masked' people to come over.
As soon as they got downstairs, the man holding the man looked up.
When I saw it, my heart sank.
The person who looked up was Cui Jiancheng. q
