Chapter 10: The Truth
I was paralyzed in bed for a few days, relying on Sijiu and Jinglan every day, and the two of them seemed to inherit the mantle of Zhizhi and became an old mother who pulled me with a handful of and urine.
The swelling on my body has probably disappeared, but I still can't move, and I have been hurting my muscles and bones for a hundred days, and I want to spend my nineteenth birthday in bed with the virtue of wrapping myself in a pair of rice dumplings. Woohoo lament, life!
I opened my mouth and summoned Four-Nine in.
"Princess, what's the matter with calling me in a hurry? Do you want to relieve yourself? I'll call Jinglan to serve, and I'll bring in the urinal that I washed yesterday......"
"Shut up for me!" Hearing the word "urinal", my head was big, "Stand up honestly, I have something to ask you." ”
"Princess, you say. ”
I asked, "Did Changsheng write to you to tell you when he will return?"
"This ......," Sijiu was stunned, "the princess asked Changsheng what to do?"
"The day after tomorrow is my birthday......" I sighed as I stared at the top of the tent, the picture of the spring sleeping peony became dim in my eyes, "Well, I am like this now, and I can only lie on the bed and rely on you to feed me two noodles." ”
"Why are you talking so miserable, I'm here to accompany you!" The sound at the door interrupted my long sigh, Pei Shaoyi opened the curtain with one hand and walked in.
It is estimated that Sijiu is not used to listening to Pei 13 say "I", so he couldn't help but shudder.
Pei Shaoyi glanced at Sijiu strangely and asked, "Why are you shaking?"
I twisted my neck stiffly and said to him, "My family doesn't have the fur on your body, and the cold is natural." ”
Who knew that Pei Shaoyi actually took off the camel hair coat he was wearing, and handed it to Sijiu: "Go, wear this out, I have something to talk to your master." ”
Sijiu reluctantly picked up Pei Shao's heavy coat and walked out of the dormitory, and his back looked at it from my point of view, a little injured.
I turned my head slightly and asked, "What is the matter with me today?" Thinking of the cruel fact that I was paralyzed on the bed, "I'm afraid I can't gamble with you." ”
Pei Shisan waved his hand, and he was particularly bold: "Lao Tzu...... No, it's me, I'm not here to gamble with you, you can rest assured to lie down!"
I sniffled and said, "Then I have to thank you for your kindness...... But then again, it's not a matter of cockfighting and lackeys, what else can you do with me?"
Thirteen suddenly became squirming, biting his lower lip and hesitating for a long time before saying, "I...... I'm here to apologize. ”
"Dao Lu apologize?" I was stunned by his words, I didn't expect to hear the word "Dao Lu apologize" from the mouth of this demon king of the mixed world, it was really unusual.
"That'...... I didn't lend you the 'chaser' that day, and you were smashed into this virtuous ......" Pei Shaoyi looked at me with pity and said, "How should I explain to him when the ninth master comes back tomorrow......"
"What?!" Hearing Qi Ye's name, all my senses were raised, and I had no choice but to be tied tightly, otherwise I might even dance with my hands.
Thirteen looked at me in horror and said, "You better lie down, how do I feel uncomfortable when you move......" Tilted his head and thought for a while, "Yes, it's like the Qiuxi zongzi sold by Liuxianju!"
I held back the evil anger in my heart and said, "You shut up for me......"
Thirteen remembered something, and continued to babble without fear of death: "By the way...... There is one more thing I want to remind you first, don't tell anyone about the ninth master's return, let alone what I said!"
I wondered, "What is this for?" shouldn't he come back with the prince?"
Pei Shisan wiped his nose and snorted: "Princess Lan Shao told me that the ninth master will come back tomorrow." But I seem to have heard my father say that the disaster relief trip to the south is scheduled to return to Beijing after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the ninth master doesn't know what happened when he comes back this time, and I don't dare to make a noise......"
"So you told me first. I said to him appreciatively, "Yes, it's really my fox friend." ”
"This title is really ......" Thirteen Yi hesitated, thought for a while, and asked, "Why don't you ask me how Princess Lan Shao knew the news that the Ninth Master of Lu Dao is coming back?"
I said, "I was going to ask, but since you mentioned it first, then just say it, it's not for me to beat around the bush." ”
"Oh. Pei 13 answered, sat on the edge of my couch, and told me the cause and effect of this whole thing:
It turned out that on the way to the palace today to ask me for sin, Pei Shisan happened to meet Lan Shao, he had admired Lan Shao before, but now he saw it and avoided it for some reason. Lan Shao saw that it was him, and he pulled him to shush and say a few warm words.
Just think of Lan Shao's tender words, a few words hooked most of the soul of the iron-blooded tough guy Xiao Bai's face, and the thirteen were confused and forgot what he said, but Lan Shao's sentence "The ninth master sent me a message, and he will be back tomorrow" made him wake up like a dream, and he was pulled back to reality.
Pei Shao was indignant: "I hate it! I'm not as good as the Ninth Master, I let Lan Shaoji hang on him for so long! Although I'm dead to her now, she doesn't have to be like this!"
I looked at him sympathetically and said, "I remember a great poet who said that an infatuated man will always meet a forest of crooked trees, and you should not be discouraged." Besides, she told you that Qi Ye wrote to her, and you said...... Wait, Qi Ye will write to her?"
Pei Shao nodded: "There seems to be such a thing." Then he shook his head again, "I have been in the middle of thousands of flowers in Pei Shaoyi, but I am not like the ninth master, when I walk, I am covered with peach blossoms." ”
I pretended not to know and asked him, "What do you mean by that?"
Pei Shao glanced at me with a resentful expression, and then told me something about Qi Ye that I didn't know.
It turned out that the year I became a monk happened to be when Yuwen Qi returned from Xiliang at night.
At that time, it was the time when the DPRK and China were employing people. The eldest son of Zhenguo Gongyu Wenlu died on the battlefield, the second son did not know the art of soldiers, and there is a rumor that the adopted son ran away from home and died in a foreign land. The Shence army is facing the front and back attacks of the Turks and Xiliang, the Xiliang army has no commander, Zhenguo Gong is extremely difficult to lead the troops, and the DPRK has not seen support for a long time.
Yuwen Qiye returned to Chang'an from Xiliang at this time, with a top-secret document of Xiliang's troops, chariots and horses, and a life experience that fell beyond the eyes of the world, knelt alone on one knee above the Jinluan Palace, and asked the emperor to allow him to lead the troops to the battle.
The rest of the story is full of legends. It is rumored that Yuwen Qiye led a team of elite soldiers to attack the Xiliang camp at night, burned the opponent's grain and grass, forced the enemy army to the mouth of the Weishui Valley, and forced Xiliang to sign a letter of surrender and win back the seven cities lost in the previous year's campaign for the Great Zhou.
After the Shence army returned to Beijing, the emperor attached great importance to this youngest son of the Yuwen clan who had been hidden for many years, and he was added to the rank of knight three times in a row, and even gave him the princess Shiguo and Lulanshao in the court.
Unexpectedly, Yuwen Qiye rejected this family business very calmly, saying that he already had a sweetheart, and he returned to Chang'an this time to find her. The emperor remembered his affection, so he held down the matter.
But we tend to ignore the feelings of being the only heroine in this story. Princess Lanshao, as the most dignified and quiet princess in the royal family, has always been admired by many people, and now she is inexplicably rejected for marriage, and she is still a young and promising general.
"It's really strange for you to say that the ninth master, at first he obviously refused to marry, and it didn't take long for him to have an affair with Lan Shao, I really can't figure out what he is doing. Pei Shao said sneeringly.
I said, "I guess I found out that Lan Shao is his sweetheart." ”
"No...... Not so...... You come here......" Major General Pei stretched his head over, with a mysterious expression, "I know who his real sweetheart is......"
I hurriedly put my ear on the ear--"The Alluring City Girl of the Zhaoyang Hall right now." ”
