Chapter Twenty-Three: Three Sheep and Five Eyes
"Three sheep, three sheep and five eyes, three sheep and five eyes. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "In Chang'an City, Fu Jian returned to the mansion of the king of the East China Sea from the military camp, and when he passed by the alley, he saw a group of children reciting songs in their mouths, crossing one leg and hitting each other with one leg, and having fun. When Fu Jian heard the word "king", he asked Liang Ping, who was on the side, "What are those children reading?" ”
Liang Pinglao listened carefully and said, "It seems that you are talking about 'three sheep and five eyes'? So saying, he went into the alley and asked the children. The children were frightened when they saw a man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a sword, and heavy armor walking towards them.
In the Qin Imperial Palace, the emperor Fu was dressed in a crown and sat in the main hall. In front of him, a small table, with a brazier on the side, and Queen Qiang's attendant aside. Fu Chang passed away, Queen Qiang aged a lot in an instant, although her heart was uncomfortable, but compared to the former King of Qin's favor of the Zhang family, it is also a little comforting to be able to serve the king at this time.
Fu Jian asked: "The queen thinks that among the sons under the widow's knees, who can take over the crown prince on behalf of Fu Chang?" ”
Queen Qiang used a spoon to scratch the edge of the small bowl to dissipate the heat of the porridge in the bowl, and when she saw that the porridge in her hand was warm, she wanted to feed it to Fu Jian, but Fu Jian stretched out his hand and pushed it away. Queen Qiang put the porridge on the small table, and said: "Yinu's understanding of the sons, there is only the eighth son, Fu Liu, who has the demeanor of His Majesty back then, and can afford to take on a big responsibility." ”
As Qiang was talking, suddenly a eunuch entered with a mahogany carved tray, which was covered with silk and a bundled note on it. Fu Jian looked at the eunuch kneeling in front of him with a tray in his hands, and knew that the things in his hand were sent by someone ordered by Qin Tianjian, so he sat up straight, picked up the note from the plate, untied the string on the note, and spread it on the small table.
Qiang glanced at the note, and saw that the words "three sheep and five eyes" were written on it with a small seal, and nothing else. Fu Jian squinted and frowned, puzzled.
Outside the Qintian prison, the left servant shot Liang An and Shang Shu ordered Liang Leng to stand on the steps, and the flag not far away was hunting in the wind, and Liang Leng said: "If the king knows that we are doing this......
Shang Shu Ling Liang An replied: "If you don't say it, if I don't say it, who will know?" As he spoke, he tucked the note into his sleeve and walked forward quickly. Liang Leng followed, and Liang An said, "Have you forgotten how Hou Zhao was killed?" If the sons seize the heirs, the world will inevitably be in chaos. Since Your Majesty can't make up your mind, we will send this proverb to Your Majesty to help him get this idea!" Waiting for Huaiyu to marry Huainan Wang Fusheng, the glory and wealth of this world, aren't they all from our Liang family? ”
Outside Chang'an City, Liang Huaiyu was dressed in plain clothes, wearing white flowers on his head, standing on the bank of the withered grass, thinking of the young man who once wore a beard and wiped his forehead in the palace of King Qin and humbly greeted the ladies in the banquet, remembered that he praised her riding skills in front of everyone during the banquet and invited her to the horse farm to play, remembered the way he rode a horse and won the championship on the racecourse, and remembered the way he read and shot by the river outside Yecheng...... With a sad heart, he poured the vegetarian wine into the river in his hand, and muttered in his mouth: "My brother is alone and far away, where should Huaiyu send his sorrows?" ”
After saying that, he sat alone by the river, and his heart was full of sorrow. remembered that Qiang had pointed out himself to the one-eyed Fu Sheng, and that his father had asked him to help him obtain the throne the night before...... The elder brother treated the Liang family well before his death, how could his father and uncle have such an idea of who to replace him when his brother's bones were not cold?
Liang Huaiyu thought to himself, after drinking the wine in the pot, he threw the empty wine bottle into the river, and regardless of the horses grazing by the river, he got up and walked along the river alone, walked to the deepest part of the water, looked at the direction of the river, and muttered: "Brother walking alone on the Huangquan Road, he must be lonely, and the elder brother will wait for Huaiyu, and Huaiyu will come to accompany the elder brother." After saying that, he jumped into the river......
In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Yu Ge and Wang Xie's father-in-law's son Lang Mountain Residence, it has entered the autumn of October, the mountain is still dripping with light rain, Xie Daoyun invited Yu Ge to learn words, and the fish singer held the wolf pen full of thick ink, but he couldn't calm down. I couldn't write well, so I threw the pen aside, only to hear Xie Daoyun greet him: "Third sister, come and see!" Yuge got up and walked to Xie Daoyun's side, only to see the word "Angelica" written on the rice paper laid on the small table, looking at the direction of the pen and ink, these two words are all done in one go, without any pause.
Yu Ge smiled: "The word sister is really well written. After speaking, I wanted to praise her again, but I couldn't spit out half a word. Outside the house, the female slave entered and said, "The young son of the Wang family has sent a post." After speaking, he handed the post in his hand to Xie Daoyun, Xie Daoyun took it, put it aside after reading it, and said: "The princes of the Wang family and the sons of the Xie family are arranging wine and poems in the Ninghui Pavilion downstairs, inviting us to a banquet, is my sister willing to go with you?" ”
Yuge was in a mess for no reason, so he only replied sneeringly: "Thanks to the invitation, my sister is willing to go, and my sister will go with my sister." ”
Xie Daoyun smiled, picked up a pen to reply to the post, handed it to the slave girl who presented the post, and said: "Wang Xie and the two families have been friends for generations, and there are only two of us in this mountain dwelling, and it is only a few steps to the left and right. When you sent back the letter, you told the prince of the Wang family that he would invite us with him in the future, just send someone to tell us directly, and there is no need to be so angry. The slave girl answered, took the letter, and walked out.
Xie Daoyun stood up, pulled Yuge inside, sat down in front of the bronze mirror, took Yuge's hand and asked, "You and I have known each other for a long time, and we both know each other's temperaments." I see that you can't calm down today, but what's on your mind? ”
Yu Ge looked at Xie Daoyun, his eyes were a little evasive, and said: "Zhang San has nothing on his mind, but he can't calm down in his heart for no reason today, and I don't know why?" ”
Xie Daoyun smiled and said: "It just so happens that I don't know what to eat today, I asked the slave girl to boil the condensing soup, and the right to eat that night, what does my sister think?" ”
Yuge smiled: "Thank you sister for your concern." ”
Xie Daoyun pulled her and said, "Between you and me, why do you need to be like this? Saying that, he stood up, and Yu Ge was about to get up, but was supported by Xie Daoyun and sat in front of the bronze mirror. Xie Daoyun combed Yuge's hair and said: "The longer we get along, the more I like you as a sister in my heart, I really hope to become a family, and every day is relatively good." ”
Yuge's face was slightly red when he heard this, and he only heard Xie Daoyun say behind him: "It's just that I've known each other for so long, and I don't know what kind of person my sister likes?" Are there any children of our Xie family who can get into the eye? ”
Yu Ge grabbed Xie Daoyun's hand from behind her shoulder to comb her hair, and said, "Zhang San has thanked his sister for her love, and the children of the Xie family are all Zhilan Yushu, which is not something that ordinary people like Zhang San can afford." After Yu Ge finished speaking, seeing that Xie Daoyun still wanted to persuade him, Yu Ge only said, "Besides, Zhang San's family is already married, and when I return to Qindi, I will marry someone else, and I don't know if I can see my sister again in this life after I go back this time......
When Xie Daoyun heard this, he was shocked in his heart, and he didn't think that the three girls were already married, so he had to stop Fang Cai's words. slowly combed her hair and said, "I can't be a family with my sister in this life, and I always feel regretful in my heart." Why don't you and I marry Jin Lan and worship as sisters? ”
When Yuge heard this, he was grateful to Xie Daoyun for his honesty and nodded in agreement.
Xie Daoyun asked people to prepare red paper, pen and ink, Yuge and Xie Daoyun filled in their names, birthdays, places of origin and parents in turn into the "Jinlan Spectrum", put the tablets of heaven and earth, burned incense and bowed in turn according to age, and read together: "Today, the two of us have become Jinlan sisters, and since then we have rescued each other from good fortune and evil, and we have helped each other in adversity. ”
The two of them kowtowed to each other and drank the wine in each other's cups. Supporting each other to get up, calling each other "sister" and "sister" is considered a courtesy. Yuge suddenly thought that to this day, he still hasn't told Xie Daoyun his real name. His expression froze for a moment.
Seeing this, Xie Daoyun asked, "What's wrong with my sister, but I'm not feeling well?" ”
Yu Ge let go of Xie Daoyun with a solemn face and took his hand, not knowing how to speak. Xie Daoyun saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, stepped forward with concern, pulled Yuge to sit down, and asked people to change the tea. Yu Ge sat on the seat, picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, saying, "I really don't hide it from my sister, Zhang San's real name is Yu Ge, and I couldn't tell my sister the truth in time......"
Yu Ge lowered his head as he spoke, obviously feeling Xie Daoyun stunned for a moment, only to hear Xie Daoyun smile and say: "It turns out that you are Hudi's little sister Yu, I should have thought of it a long time ago!" ”
Yu Ge raised his head when he heard this, and said in disbelief: "Sister is not angry with me? ”
Xie Daoyun said with a smile: "What's so angry about this, it's too late for me to be happy, I always think that I will have to meet Yu Xiaomei in my lifetime, but I didn't expect it to be in front of me." ”
Yuge was ashamed of her deception, and when she heard Xie Daoyun praise her like this, she only blushed, Xie Daoyun reached out to pinch her face and said, "What do you want?" Do you feel guilty that I didn't know your name and became a sister to you? ”
Yu Ge lowered his head and looked at the ground, nodding imperceptibly. Seeing this, Xie Daoyun said with a smile: "Whether you are Miss Zhang San or the little sister of the Yu family, I only know that the person in front of me is my sister who married Jin Lan. I'm willing to be a sister to you, and I like you as a person, you know? ”
Yu Ge nodded, Xie Daoyun smiled for a while, pulled her up, and said, "The banquet in Ninghui Pavilion should start soon, let's go down quickly, don't ask the princes to wait for a hurry." Yu Ge nodded and went downstairs with Xie Daoyun. Along the way, I looked up at the distant mountains, and saw a layer of fog on the top of the distant mountains.
Outside Chang'an City, the sky is overcast and the clouds are heavy. Liang Huaiyu jumped into the river, the river water was cold, and it quickly poured into his throat and ears. The soles of his feet were wrapped in aquatic plants, Liang Huaiyu didn't struggle, there was a roar in his head, he only heard the sound of falling water, and he was unconscious.
When I woke up again, I saw myself lying on the bank of the river, drenched, and not far away, two horses grazing leisurely. Raising his eyes and seeing that Deng Qiang, who was also embarrassed, still had a few aquatic plants on his head, Liang Huaiyu suddenly wanted to laugh, but kept coughing.
Deng Qiang was busy patting Liang Huaiyu on the back, and when she recovered, he only heard her ask, "You saved me?" ”
Deng Qiang saw that the wet clothes lined with Liang Huaiyu's delicate body were undulating, his face was red for a while, and he said angrily: "If you want to seek death, you can also find a river farther away from here, I often go here to walk my horses, if I don't save you, what can I do if you let your soul scare my horse in the future?" As he spoke, he didn't want to admit the fact that he had followed her out of town.
Liang Huaiyu looked at Deng Qiang's back and said, "Okay, I'll go find a clean place for the rest of my life." After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the horse, but was suddenly fished into a warm embrace, Liang Huaiyu struggled for a long time, Deng Qiang let her grab and bite, but there was no intention of letting go.
Liang Huaiyu struggled and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Deng Qiang knelt in her ear, blushed, and said, "I don't want you to seek death for someone who doesn't love you!" ”
Liang Huaiyu was angry when he heard this, stepped on the instep of Deng Qiang's foot hard, and said, "Why do you say that he doesn't love me!" ”
Deng Qiang was in pain, holding Liang Huaiyu unsteadily, and fell to the riverbank, the two looked at each other, breathed each other, and both of them blushed for a while. Liang Huaiyu wanted to struggle to get up, but was pounced on by Deng Qiang, Liang Huaiyu drank: "Let go!" ”
Deng Qiang looked at Liang Huaiyu and said, "Don't let it go!" Liang Huaiyu glared at her, he only stared back, his eyes were facing each other for a long time, Deng Qiang turned his head away, let go of Liang Huaiyu, turned over and sat on the riverbank, and said, "Why did you bother to come?" ”
Liang Huaiyu got up, suddenly cried, and said, "Brother Fu Chang went to Huangquan alone, how could I bear to let him go alone?" ”
Deng Qiang was a little disdainful and said: "You turned a blind eye to his intentions when he was alive, do you think you are looking for death for him, and he can get half a point for your love?" ”
Liang Huaiyu cried and said, "You can't take care of it! ”
Deng Qiang still scoffed at the appearance of Liang Huaiyu's little daughter, and said: "I can't control it, but it's easy for you to die, what do people in the world think of you?" Say you're infatuated, say you're sincere, or are you stupid? Don't forget, Yu Xiaomei is the original match of Fu Chang, Yu Xiaomei does not say a word, when will it be your turn to die for Fu Chang, an outsider? ”
Liang Huaiyu was stunned, and sneered: "Yes, what am I?" What's the point of just being alive, and being alive? According to the words of Queen Qiang, marry Huainan Wang Fusheng? Deng Qiang, you have been friends with Fu Sheng since childhood, you should know better than anyone what kind of person Fu Sheng is? ”
Deng Qiang's forehead was bruised, and he said: "If you don't marry the king of Huainan and marry me, the son of a commoner, will you marry or not?" ”
Liang Huaiyu was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Are you sympathizing with me?" When Deng Qiang heard this, he held Liang Huaiyu's head with one hand, lowered his head and kissed it.
Deng Qiang was bitten by Liang Huaiyu's lower lip and still refused to let go, for a long time, when Liang Huaiyu didn't move, Deng Qiang let go of her, wiped the blood between his lips, and said: "If you marry me in the future, you will murder your husband today, do you know?" ”
Liang Huaiyu had a place for Deng Qiang in his heart, and he was tamed for a while, leaning on Deng Qiang's arms, and asked: "Deng Qiang, can I really marry you?" ”
Deng Qiang stroked Liang Huaiyu's hair and said, "I'll go and beg Fu Sheng and ask him to ask Queen Qiang to take back her life." ”
Liang Huaiyu looked at the water flowing slowly eastward in the river and said, "What if Queen Qiang refuses?" ”
Deng Qiang said: "Then you and I will never see each other again in this life, watching you marry someone else makes me more uncomfortable than killing me." Deng Qiang saw that Liang Huaiyu's close-fitting clothes were still wet, so he said, "Go back, otherwise you should catch a cold." The cold wind hit, Liang Huaiyu felt a little cold, Deng Qiang put the cloak around her, helped her to get up, and stepped forward to lead the horse for her, Liang Huaiyu was puzzled, Deng Qiang said: "Get on the horse!" ”
Liang Huaiyu got on the horse as she said, Deng Qiang led the horse for her, and Deng Qiang's horse followed Liang Huaiyu's horse and went back to Chang'an City together. In front of Liang Huaiyu's left servant shooting Liang An's mansion, the female slave came forward to hug Liang Huaiyu into the mansion, Deng Qiang watched the back of the beautiful woman gradually disappear in the high wall, and was about to ride his horse and turn around, only to see Liang Huaiyu turn his head and smile at him. Deng Qiang remembered that smile in his heart, but he had never seen such a smile in his life.
In the palace of the king of Huainan, Fu Sheng took a bow and arrow, and an arrow pierced the bull's-eye. Seeing this, the butler who was waiting on the side hurriedly stepped forward and handed another arrow to Fu Sheng's hand with both hands, and did not forget to praise in his mouth: "My king is mighty. Fu Sheng took the arrow, and the other arrow shot into the bull's-eye, Fu Sheng took the arrow from the butler on the side, and asked: "In the court, what has happened recently?" ”
The butler handed the arrow and said, "Everything is expected by the king." As he was talking, a small man suddenly entered and said, "Master Lang, Deng Qiang and Deng Gongzi are here." When Fu Sheng heard this, he didn't look back, and said, "Let him in." When the little guy heard this, he was about to pass the word, when Fu Sheng pulled his bow and shot at the little guy's head.
The little guy rolled down in front of the steps, Fu Sheng stretched out his hand to ask for the arrow, and after getting the arrow, he only heard Deng Qiang's voice behind him: "You just let me in directly, why hurt his life?" ”
Fu Sheng turned around, the tip of the arrow pointed directly at Deng Qiang's chest, Deng Qiang was not afraid, stretched out his hand to push away the arrow pointed at him by Fu Sheng, and said with a smile: "Why, our King Huainan is going to be the crown prince, and even his old friend doesn't recognize it?" ”
Fu Sheng shot the arrow in his hand at the target, and when he saw the arrow target fall to the ground, he laughed and threw the bow to the butler on the side, patting the ashes on his body, and said: "Why did you come to my house empty, I remember, in previous years, I wanted to invite you over, but you refused to come." ”
Deng Qiang sat down with Fu Sheng, poured a cup of tea for himself and Fu Sheng, picked up the teacup, and said, "Isn't there something to ask you?" ”
Fu Sheng smiled and said, "I know, let's say, what can I do for you to come to my house?" ”
Deng Qiang poured all the tea in the cup into his mouth and said, "I went out of the city to walk my horse today, and I saw the left servant shoot Liang An's daughter for Fu Chang's martyrdom. ”
Fu Sheng raised the teacup and said, "She is a woman with affection and righteousness." ”
Deng Qiang poured himself another cup of tea, and said as he poured it: "It's just such a loving and righteous woman, what is the use of you marrying?" Why don't you allow me? ”
Fu Sheng took a sip of tea in the cup, looked at Deng Qiang's eyes and said, "I don't want to." ”
When Deng Qiang heard this, he poured the tea, the smile on his face was a little tense, and he asked, "Why is this?" ”
Fu Sheng was still holding the teacup, but his eyes were full of gloom, he looked at Deng Qiang and said word by word: "I want to take all the things that Fu Chang has over the years, one by one." ”
