Chapter 5: Autumn Moon and Extraordinarily Clear (1)
"You all know what happened next. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Lin Yueyuan chewed a few bites, sighed, and said angrily: "If it weren't for me chasing that female thief day and night, and my physical strength was exhausted, how could I let that little marquis easily gain the upper hand." ”
She recalled the scene of the fight in the morning, and said to herself in doubt: "It is really strange that he has a few moves in his martial arts tricks that are the same as me." ”
The other two listened a little intently, and waited for Lin Yueyuan to stop talking before starting the chopsticks again.
Chu Yunxi strictly adhered to the rule that ladies eat without saying a word, and concentrated on the maximum range that his chopsticks could reach, once he exceeded this field, even if he had his favorite dish, he would never cross the line. She chewed delicately, barely making a sound, and her dignified appearance looked extremely out of place with his men's dress.
Compared with Lin Yueyuan's informality, he feasted. Even Shi Jiaheng seemed to chew slowly when he ate, and he was modest.
Lin Yueyuan, who was watching from the sidelines, felt funny, fighting on the battlefield, racing against time, where to eat like this, there was a general who was ready to go to the battlefield at any time. This is too different from the rugged and bold generals she read in her poems. It's just a weak scholar who does things slowly.
She only said that others were slowly soaring, but she didn't know that she was impulsive and irritable. She always wants to solve all problems in one fell swoop, and procrastination and delay can make her restless, restless, and irritable.
And Shi Jiaheng likes to think, but Shi Jiajun has high-intensity military physical training every day under the leadership of Shi Lie. Newly recruited recruits are often miserable and even reluctant to obey. In order to establish prestige and give confidence to the soldiers, Shi Lie first stabbed his two sons. The boring training made his active mind more eager for books, and compared with some readers who wanted to exchange books for fame, the purpose of his love for books was simple and straightforward - to rest and relieve fatigue.
When he was at the border, he developed a habit of training troops during the day and reading books at night, especially in formation and the art of war. At first, it was the boy's playful nature that aroused his interest in hard work, but once he applied it to actual combat, he experienced wisdom beyond savage physical combat. He found the love of his life when he was a teenager, which is one of the reasons why he is more mature than the average person.
Reading requires thinking, otherwise the human mind will be rigid, and for him time is precious. But thinking does not need to divide time alone, as long as the body is not destroyed, people are invincible and not in thinking. The only difference is that the majority of people are not aware of it, while a very small number of people are not only aware of it, but also use it to do something meaningful.
Shi Jiaheng is one of them, sleeping, eating, washing, and even running on the way to war are the scene of his thinking.
Although his body was eating now, his mind was in the book on his desk. He often can't help but be distracted, but his slight stagnation, incoherent movements, and the brow that gathers when confronted with problems inadvertently add a bit of elegant and melancholy temperament.
Lin Yueyuan's eyes were not idle for a moment, and it captured the dynamics of things in all directions, until the rhythm of the rotation coincided with the rhythm of Shi Jiaheng's chopsticks. She saw the confusion and asked curiously, "Third brother, why do you only eat vegetarian and don't eat meat?" ”
Chu Yunxi raised his head when he heard the sound, glanced at the two of them separately, and lowered his chopsticks.
Lin Yueyuan enthusiastically grabbed a piece of chopsticks and sheepskin filigree, handed it to Shi Jiaheng's bowl, and joked: "Come to the third brother, you eat." We are the guests, why are you so polite as a host. I'm afraid that we won't have enough to eat, we don't have a lot of food, and we won't give you the poor. ”
An unexpected situation happened, Shi Jiaheng did not gratefully reach out to pick up the bowl, but blocked it back with chopsticks, protected the bowl with his left hand, shook his head and said, "I can't eat meat today." ”
Lin Yueyuan and Chu Yunxi glanced at each other, and at the same time saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Shi Jiaheng smiled and explained: "This is the rule set by my master. Don't look at my current body, it's all rehearsed the day after tomorrow, I was born prematurely, and it turned out to be a sick seedling with a weak and sickly individual. ”
Lin Yueyuan touched Chu Yunxi's arm with her elbow, she showed a suspicious expression, she remembered that when she met him when she was young, he didn't have any sick appearance, but was in good spirits.
Shi Jiaheng talked eloquently while adding food and vegetables for them: "I was born in my hometown, and my father was not yet there
The family is very dilapidated. My brother dropped out of school at a young age, went to the field to farm, and supported a family. My master is a monk who was seriously injured and had half of his face ruined, and his mind was occasionally confused, but he was compassionate and always thought of saving people. My father had been favored by him, but when he was found by the time he was found, he had already escaped through the door. My father wanted to take him to live in the Tengmei Garden outside the city, but he was used to traveling all over the world and did not want to be restrained. Since practicing martial arts with him, my body has gradually become stronger, and my parents don't know how to thank him, but the master said that he had made mistakes and killed people before, and his heart has been uneasy, hoping that I can drink vegetarian food on the 15th day of the first month of every month to help him accumulate blessings. Hence this habit. ”
Lin Yueyuan said with some gloom and envy after hearing this: "It's still your father, don't abandon the chaff, don't forget the old kindness, what a loving and righteous man." The strange way does not rely on Zuyin, but also relies on the proud military exploits to become the commander of Zhenbei all the way from the fire head soldier. Back then, my Lin family was also in the middle of the road, and it was because of my mother's family's financial resources and my mother's shrewdness and ability that I got where I am today, but what about him? ”
Chu Yunxi's eyes darkened, and his face sank. Shi Jiaheng hurriedly glanced at Lin Yueyuan, and the three of them returned to tranquility.
"By the way, Yueyuan, how is Lin Risheng?" Not wanting to affect other Chu Yunxi because of his emotions, he took the lead in breaking the peace.
Lin Yueyuan, who couldn't be idle, continued to live a mouthful of addiction, and told them how Chen Siyu sorted out the reason why their brothers and sisters brought Shunan from beginning to end.
Lin Yueyuan said and touched Chu Yunxi's shoulder anxiously, leaned into her ear and said, "I'm just worried that my brother will go with Siyu, a lonely man and a widow, and he will fall in love for a long time." ”
Chu Yunxi guessed the topic of her next words, and pushed her with his shoulder in disgust, signaling her to stop talking quickly.
Lin Yueyuan, who was straightforward, not only did not give up the topic according to her wishes, but publicly and frustrated her position on this matter in front of Shi Jiaheng: "Of course, Siyu is also very good, but I still want you to be my sister-in-law." ”
Shi Jiaheng's eyes flashed, and he patrolled back and forth between the two in surprise. Chu Yunxi couldn't wait to dig a hole in the ground and get in, she rolled her eyes and glared at Lin Yueyuan, put the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and made a sound that alluded to her angry mood.
Lin Yueyuan, who had never been willing to admit defeat easily, was a little short of breath at the moment, she looked at Chu Yunxi's purple face, and coaxed in a low voice for the first time: "Okay, okay." Every time you mention it, you don't get happy. I don't understand what my brother is not worthy of you, and deserves your opposition again and again. Okay, okay, Miss Chu Si, you are a young lady in a high-ranking family in Kyoto, and you don't look down on our humble family in the wilderness of Shu. Come on, I'll not talk about it again, one last time. ”
However, Shi Jiaheng struggled for a long time and was silent, because of Chu Yunxi's attitude. Her dissatisfaction does not seem to be simply a matter of shame, but of genuine irritation.
If you can open Chu Yunxi's heart to them at that time, Shi Jiaheng's expectations are good. She was indeed furious. Her mother's bones are not cold, can she talk about marriage here, ruthlessly abandon her mother's cold corpse and hide in a paradise to live happily? The relationship between her and Lin Risheng is innocent, why should she use the dirty children's private affairs to tarnish the pure friendship between them?
Chu Yunxi walked quickly to the house, changing clothes was just an excuse to hide people's eyes, from the moment she stepped into the general's mansion, she began to think about leaving the two of them. There were ready-made four treasures of the study in the house, and in order to make them give up the idea of looking for her, she used the time she was eating to make up a lie, roughly wrote it on a piece of paper, and pasted it on the door. Then follow the same path and touch the back door, climb over the high wall and walk away.
"Not good." Shi Jiaheng exclaimed in surprise, "Why am I confused again, why did Yunxi bring her gauze hat when she was going to change her clothes, looking at her resolute expression when she left, she was afraid that she would have to say goodbye." ”
Lin Yueyuan stood up in surprise, anxiously pulled the chair to the ground and turned his feet to the sky, and ran away, followed by Shi Jiaheng.
When the two arrived, the building was already empty. A piece of white paper on the door was hammered by the wind and slammed against the door panel like thunder.
Lin Yueyuan regretted that he shouldn't have used the strength of wine to talk nonsense, and ran away with Chu Yunxi angry, holding his head in his hands sadly, and stepping on the ground with his feet helplessly.
Shi Jiaheng calmly took down the book and studied it carefully like reading a military book, the general content of it was that Bai Biao, who had been missing for a long time, asked her to meet somewhere in the city, she was eager to see her uncle, and it was a matter of her uncle's life and death, and the specific situation was inconvenient to disclose. May they add more seas. After the matter is done, she will definitely tell the matter, don't worry about her, don't look for her whereabouts. She was afraid that it would not be easy to say goodbye and cause sadness, so she took the first step and reunited another day.
Shi Jiaheng handed the note to Lin Yueyuan, paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, thinking about the joints: her words should be half-truths and half-truths, first of all, her expression did not match, he could observe her eyes several times, although she was smiling on her face, but her eyes were as silent as stagnant water. Bai Biao's escape from death should be a great joy, why is there no smile in her eyes; secondly, she used the excuse to escape, her intention was so clear, it was clear that she wanted to cover up something, maybe she not only wanted to meet Bai Biao, but also wanted to do something else that could not be spoken; Maybe she and Bai Biao are secretly planning something, and I don't know; Or maybe it's all because she's suspicious, she's here for revenge. He was startled, but she was out of his sight, and he was like a ship sailing in the fog that had lost its watchtower, and had made a mistake.
Lin Yueyuan hurriedly scanned the contents of the paper, tilted his head and asked him, "How credible is this matter?" The improvised lie that Chu Yunxi made up in a hurry was vague and aroused her suspicions.
Shi Jiaheng knew that Lin Yueyuan had a strong temper, and under the nose of the prime minister, if he took a slight wrong step, he might not be able to escape the disaster of death. No matter what Chu Yunxi's intentions are, not involving the innocent is a common virtue between the two.
He respected her wishes, and in order to stabilize Lin Yueyuan, he had to compile her "lies" more perfectly, until he threw out the last trump card: his promise - he would do his best to find Chu Yunxi, and the other party was finally completely convinced that Chu Yunxi could not be dangerous under his protection at all.
Lin Yueyuan was satisfied at this time, and embarked on the last journey into the political center of the entire Central Plains Dynasty with peace of mind. She was bent on completing the task assigned by Lin Chang as soon as possible, and came out early to meet Shi Jiaheng to find Chu Yunxi.
However, some people are obviously in a passive position and cannot help themselves, neither dare to resist, nor are they unable to resist, but they voluntarily enter the cage set by fate in ignorance, and do not know how to resist. Once they are hooked, they are destined to be unable to get out, unless they are entangled to death, or life is worse than death.
She smiled and grimaced, took the hand she had put on the table and put it on her cheek, and laughed, "If you commit a crime next time, you will beat me." The third brother testified. ”
Chu Yunxi withdrew her hand, this time she didn't continue to laugh, but wrenched her face and said, "If you talk nonsense again, I'm really going to be angry." ”
Then she turned her head and asked Shi Jiaheng: "I just touched my sleeve by mistake, can you borrow a place for me to change my clothes." ”
Shi Jiaheng hurriedly stood up: "I'll take you there." ”
Chu Yunxi's face was tense, and he raised his eyebrows indifferently and said, "I don't dare to work hard for you." Just give us a rough direction. ”
Shi Jiaheng noticed that she was not angry, and was unwilling to disobey her wishes, which made her even more unhappy, and pointed to the ear room on the west side. She nodded, packed her things, and went out quietly.
"Alas" Lin Yueyuan sighed gloomily, feeling sour in her stomach, she collapsed on the table, overturning the dishes and chopsticks.
Looking at Chu Yunxi's half-dead and half-alive appearance, Shi Jiaheng's heart was mixed with all kinds of tastes, and the bitterness rising from his tongue made him lose his appetite at all.
He silently picked up the chopsticks that Lin Yueyuan had knocked down, forced a smile, and comforted her: "Yunxi is not a person with a small amount of energy, if you want to come to your girl's private room, you should talk about it behind closed doors." She probably felt a little embarrassed in front of me as an outsider. It's not really angry with you. There was a slight sadness and loneliness in his tone.
Lin Yueyuan covered his stomach with one hand, rested his head on the other arm that was lying horizontally on the table, and said uncomfortably: "Third brother, don't say that." I've never treated you as an outsider, and neither do Yunxi. It is precisely because I regard you as my own brothers and sisters that I have the courage to say it today. Third brother, heaven and earth are proof, but I am wholeheartedly for her good. She has no mother now, and her father is such a ruthless and unrighteous person. She has no support, so she feels that life is boring, if she can marry a good family, settle down, and live a down-to-earth life is better than pretending to be hateful. She has a concern, and she will not be as boring as she is today. ”
Her sincerity in thinking about Chu Yunxi wholeheartedly touched Shi Jiaheng, and he sighed: "What a glass crystal heart, it is also a blessing for her to have such a close friend in this life." ”
Lin Yueyuan smiled bitterly: "I didn't say this to show how good I am. It's not that I'm boasting, although my brother doesn't have the ability to govern the country and calm the world, he can't compare with a general like you who protects his family and defends the country. But my brother is honest, good-hearted, and kind to people. The two have known each other for a long time, and they both know each other in temperament, and they usually talk about everything, which is very good. I'm not messing around, I can guarantee that my brother will be good to Yunxi. Third brother, you help me persuade her to plan for herself as soon as possible. All right? ”
Shi Jiaheng's heart was like frost, the first time he encountered a dilemma of love and righteousness, it turned out to be such a depressed pain. But Chu Yunxi, if she encounters the same choice one day, will she feel heartache for him. Thinking of this, his body trembled, and suddenly he understood that it was not the most painful, maybe this assumption would never appear in her life, this was the greatest sorrow in his life.
Lin Risheng, the name of a person he has never met, will it be the final destination of Chu Yunxi's life. Shi Jiaheng really wanted to meet him and told him: If you are really her true son, please be sure to cherish her.
