65. Chapter 65
Early the next morning, when Pei Ze woke up from his sleep and slowly opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Yanzhi leaning on the pillow and looking at him with his head propped up with his hands.
"Awake?" Xiao Yanzhi raised his eyes and looked at the light outside the window, "You have slept for a long time today." My father sent someone in the morning to say that you don't have to go to court today. ”
Hearing this, Pei Ze also raised his head and looked at the sky outside the window, and saw that the sky outside the window was bright, Pei Ze was also slightly surprised, but then lay back again.
"When did you wake up?" Pei Ze raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Yanzhi.
Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips and said, "I woke up before dawn, and my body hurt more today than yesterday, and I can't sleep." ”
Pei Ze's eyebrows furrowed, and he asked distressedly: "The imperial doctor didn't give a prescription for pain relief?" ”
"Given," Xiao Yanzhi smiled, "but I was afraid that they would come in and wake you up, so I didn't ask someone to get it." It's rare that you can sleep for so long. ”
Hearing this, Pei Ze immediately bounced up from the bed and walked out quickly. After a while, Xiao Yanzhi heard the sound of Pei Ze arranging someone to boil the medicine.
"Lie down." After returning to the room, seeing that Xiao Yanzhi was still leaning on his side, Pei Ze nervously instructed, but in the end, he climbed into bed again, personally supported Xiao Yanzhi, and flattened Xiao Yanzhi again, "It doesn't matter if the heart and eyes are crooked, what should I do if the bones are crooked?" ”
At this time, hearing such a joke from Pei Ze's mouth, Xiao Yanzhi suddenly felt like he couldn't cry or laugh.
"If it's crooked, you have to ask for me."
Pei Ze glanced at Xiao Yan, and then said, "Then for my own sake, I have to raise you better." ”
Xiao Yanzhi narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Glancing at Xiao Yanzhi's smiling face, Pei Ze changed his words again: "Forget it, if you are crooked, no one will rob me." ”
The smile on Xiao Yanzhi's face froze, and then he glanced at Pei Ze: "You have been talking a lot of nonsense lately?" ”
"Yes," Pei Ze nodded, "the one who is close to the ink is black." ”
Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth and turned his head to the other side.
Pei Ze smiled and said, "I'll go back to the Daji Hall to change my clothes and come back in a while." ”
Not wanting to speak, the depressed Xiao Yanzhi only lazily raised his hand and waved.
After slapping Xiao Yanzhi's buttocks, Pei Ze turned around and strode away.
After a while, Zhang Shaosheng and Xiao Chunyue came to Xiao Yanzhi's bedroom together, one holding medicine in his hand, and the other holding Xiao Yanzhi and Pei Ze's breakfast.
"I've seen the prince." Zhang Shaosheng first saluted Xiao Yanzhi's chin, and then found a place to put down the medicine bowl in his hand.
Xiao Chunyue originally planned to walk directly in front of Xiao Yanzhi, but it can be seen that Zhang Shaosheng suddenly came like this, Xiao Chunyue's footsteps stopped, and after bowing to Xiao Yanzhi in a similar way, he put breakfast on the table.
When Xiao Yanzhi heard the voice and got up, he happened to see Xiao Chunyue saluting in a panic.
"Sister Chunyue doesn't have to be formal, this Wanchun Hall is where I live, no one will pick Sister Chunyue."
Last night, it was an assassination and a saint in the palace, Sister Chunyue's heart is still panicking, right?
Xiao Chunyue looked left and right nervously and said, "This is the palace, how can there be no rules?" ”
Seeing Xiao Chunyue's trembling appearance, and recalling Xiao Junmeng's big grin when he arrived at Wucheng Wangfu on the first day, Xiao Yanzhi sighed secretly, thinking that Xiao Chunyue seemed to have really suffered a lot over the years.
"What delicious food did Sister Chunyue bring?" As he spoke, Xiao Yanzhi moved and wanted to get out of bed.
"Eh, eh! What are you doing here? As soon as he saw Xiao Yanzhi move, Zhang Shaosheng immediately opened his mouth to stop, "Do you remember that you have injuries on your body?" Don't move. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Shaosheng moved a kang table and supported it on Xiao Yanzhi's bed.
"When King Wucheng left, he specially ordered you not to get out of bed," put all the food on the kang table, Zhang Shaosheng said again, "I heard that you still have a broken bone in your leg, but how do I think you don't know that it hurts?" ”
"It hurts," Xiao Yanzhi moved back to his original position, "but it really hurts everywhere." ”
"Then you look like you're in pain?" Zhang Shaosheng said with a worried face, "You hurt your bones, can't you just lie down honestly?" ”
"He can't lie down," Xiao Chunyue couldn't help but interject, "He can't stay still when he's young, like a monkey." ”
After saying this, Xiao Chunyue immediately covered her mouth, looking panicked when she said the wrong thing.
Xiao Yanzhi smiled helplessly: "That's it, Sister Chunyue, bear with it a little longer, and you will be able to leave the palace in a while." ”
After saying that, Xiao Yanzhi began to eat.
Xiao Chunyue stood by the bed and looked at Xiao Yanzhi, looking like she wanted to speak and stopped, seeing that Zhang Shaosheng was anxious for her.
Xiao Yanzhi naturally noticed Xiao Chunyue's uneasy appearance, thought about it, put down his chopsticks, looked at Xiao Chunyue and asked with a smile, "Sister Chunyue, do you have anything to say to me?" ”
Xiao Chunyue hesitated again, and then said, "In other words, I'm ...... I'm still not staying with you, am I? ”
Xiao Yanzhi raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Is there anything Sister Chunyue wants to go to? ”
"That's not true," Xiao Chunyue still sat on the edge of the bed, and after sitting down, she felt that it was inappropriate, and stood up again, "I just ...... I just think it's better for me not to stay with you, so as not to gossip about you. ”
Xiao Yanzhi smiled, picked up the chopsticks again, and said, "If Sister Chunyue is just worried about this, then don't care. But if Sister Chunyue wants to do anything else, tell me that I will arrange it for Sister Chunyue. ”
"That's not necessary," Xiao Chunyue hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I've also saved a lot of money over the years, it's probably enough." ”
Xiao Yan was stunned, raised his head to look at Xiao Chunyue, and asked, "Sister Chunyue, do you think you can get your money back after what happened last night?" ”
was asked by Xiao Yanzhi, Xiao Chunyue was also stunned: "No, it's impossible not to get it back, right?" ”
Xiao Yanzhi looked at Xiao Chunyue and didn't speak.
Can you get it back? Not to mention that last night's scuffle caused half of the family to be smashed, they didn't bring the money with them when they left, and they didn't inform the bustard's mother, and now they go back to find it, what if the bustard's mother insists that Xiao Chunyue has no savings?
Seeing that Xiao Yanzhi didn't speak, Xiao Chunyue exclaimed and said, "Ah!! That's the hard-earned money that my mother has saved for half her life! ”
This exclamation frightened Xiao Yanzhi and Zhang Shaosheng, and even Pei Ze, who had just entered the door, was frightened.
He just went to the Daji Hall to change his clothes, and by the way, he instructed Donggui and Xu Ren to withdraw everyone in the Daji Hall to the Wucheng Palace, just a few words, how did Xiao Yanzhi provoke his sister? Half a lifetime of hard-earned money? What's the situation?
"What's wrong?" Calming down, Pei Ze asked.
Xiao Yanzhi replied: "Sister Chunyue said that she still has savings in the music workshop and wants to go back and get them back." ”
Pei Ze said disappreciatively: "Let Li An get it when I return home." ”
Are you afraid that the bustard mother of the music fang will not give it? Then let the people from Wucheng Wangfu take it, then the bustard mother won't dare to rely on it, right?
Xiao Yanzhi thought about it, but still said, "Let's let Liu Hanqing and Li An go together." ”
Although Li An is capable, he is a person who has never done business in the end, even if he runs to reason with the bustard's mother, eighty percent of them will be surrounded by others, so let Liu Hanqing go.
"Yes, okay." Pei Ze nodded, and then picked up the bowl of medicine and walked to the bedside, "Have you finished breakfast?" ”
Xiao Yanzhi nodded and said, "Well, I'm full." ”
"Drink the medicine," Pei Ze handed over the bowl of medicine and said, "I'll go home after drinking." ”
The word "go home" made Xiao Yanzhi feel in a good mood after hearing it, and he took the bowl of medicine and loosened it in his mouth, but as a result, the tip of his tongue just touched the medicinal soup, and Xiao Yanzhi's whole person froze.
"That ......" took the medicine bowl, Xiao Yanzhi asked Pei Zedao pitifully, "Can you go home directly?" ”
"I can't." Pei Ze said without thinking.
"Really? Not negotiable? ”
Pei Ze sighed, leaned over and took the bowl of medicine from Xiao Yanzhi's hand, just when Xiao Yanzhi thought that Pei Ze was going to pour the medicine away, Pei Ze suddenly raised his head and poured the entire bowl of medicine into his mouth, and then took advantage of Xiao Yanzhi's stunned moment to buckle Xiao Yanzhi's head and forcibly poured the medicine into it.
Zhang Shaosheng's reaction was fast, and as soon as he saw Pei Ze taking the medicine, he hurriedly turned his back, so he didn't see any scenes that made people blush and heartbeat, but Xiao Chunyue didn't have time to dodge, and watched the mouth-to-mouth intimate medicine filling scene completely, and when he came back to his senses and covered his blushing face with an exclamation, Pei Ze's medicine had also been filled.
"Which prescription was prescribed by the Imperial Doctor?" Pei Ze frowned and looked at Xiao Yanzhi.
He had drunk a lot of pain-relieving decoctions in his life, but none of the prescriptions prescribed by the doctor tasted stranger than this one. What does it smell like?
Xiao Yan looked at Pei Ze with a grief-stricken look and complained, "You don't love me anymore......"
"Love," Pei Ze picked up Xiao Yanzhi and turned around and walked out, "I'll drink with you." ”
"Will you drink this in the future?" The thought of drinking three pairs of such decoctions every day before the injury healed, Xiao Yanzhi felt that there was nothing to love.
Pei Ze hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Let someone change it for you." ”
Later, Pei Ze went to the Imperial Physician's Office to ask and found out that the decoction was prescribed by the five imperial doctors of the Imperial Physician's Department, but each imperial physician has his own set of prescriptions, and the five people get together to increase and decrease them, and the medicine in this prescription is somewhat strange, although there is no harm, but the taste is really not flattering.
After Pei Ze left the bedroom with Xiao Yanzhi in his arms, Zhang Shaosheng walked to Xiao Chunyue's side, patted Xiao Chunyue's shoulder, and said, "You will get used to it in the future." ”
Xiao Chunyue put down the hand covering her face and asked Zhang Shaosheng: "What is the ...... with King Wucheng?" ”
"That's what you think." Zhang Shaosheng patted Xiao Chunyue's shoulder again, and then raised his feet and walked forward.
Xiao Chunyue grabbed Zhang Shaosheng's arm and asked with a little panic, "Does Your Majesty know?" ”
Zhang Shaosheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "If Your Majesty knows, won't the world be in chaos?" It's better for you to think you don't know. ”
Xiao Chunyue frowned slightly, and then left Wanchun Hall behind Zhang Shaosheng.
When the group returned to Wucheng Palace, the hall of Wucheng Palace's mansion was already full of people, not only Lian Sheng and Xiushui were invited by Li An to take care of Xiao Yanzhi, but even Liu Hanqing, the Xiao family brothers and sisters and Yan Sheng were there.
"Brother!" As soon as he saw Pei Ze carrying Xiao Yanzhi into the door, Xiao Junmeng rushed up, followed by Lian Sheng and Xiushui.
"Oops! Lord, where are you hurting? Does it hurt? Does it hurt? As soon as he saw Xiao Yanzhi's face, Lian Sheng's nose was sour and he burst into tears.
Without waiting for Xiao Yanzhi to answer Lian Sheng's question, Xiao Junmeng complained with red eyes: "Brother, you never fight with people, why did you suddenly fight with King Wu?" There are all women in Pingkangfang, what are you doing in Pingkangfang at night? I just went, why did I fight with King Wu for a woman? Brother, you don't like women, can't you just give it to King Wu? Lord, you don't look at my brother either! ”
As soon as he heard this, Liu Hanqing hurriedly ran over and took Xiao Junmeng away, and said in a low voice: "I told you that it's not like that, why do you even complain about King Wucheng?" ”
This girl is a little too bold.
Hearing Liu Hanqing say this, Xiao Junmeng's tears immediately welled up, and he sobbed: "If that's not the case, what else can it be?" King Wu is also a bad guy! Brother is also the elder brother of King Wu, how can anyone fight his brother for a woman? Even if he didn't treat his brother as a brother, how could anyone do it to a powerless person! Yes!! It's infuriating! ”
Helpless...... Hearing this adjective, several men present looked at Xiao Yanzhi one after another, even Xiao Ren'an and Xiao Xiangsheng never felt that their brother was a powerless person, after all, the little fist and foot kung fu they knew was all taught by Xiao Yanzhi.
"Let me go." As soon as he saw Xiao Junmeng crying, Xiao Yanzhi felt distressed.
Pei Ze glared at Xiao Yan when he heard this, and then said to the others: "You can't go down to the ground now, let's go to the hall and sit down and talk." ”
Turning his head and telling Li An to move a bed to the hall, Pei Ze carried Xiao Yanzhi into the hall.
Sitting on the couch in the hall, Xiao Yanzhi always felt that something was weird, but as soon as he saw Xiao Junmeng sitting on the edge of the couch and tugging at the corner of his clothes, Xiao Yanzhi left this slightly embarrassing weirdness behind.
"Don't cry," Xiao Yanzhi touched Xiao Junmeng's head, "Aren't I okay?" ”
"Where's the good?!" Xiao Junmeng raised his head and glared at Xiao Yanzhi while crying, "There is a smell of medicine on my body, what is good?" ”
Xiao Yanzhi raised his hand and nodded Xiao Junmeng's forehead, and said, "You girl!" Are you disgusted with me now? Forget that you grew up in a jar of medicine when you were a kid? Haven't you been used to smelling this medicine since you were a child? ”
"Then, can the smell of medicine on my own body be the same as the smell of medicine on others?" Xiao Junmeng glared and said, "What kind of woman is she?" What is her ability to make her brother rather fight with others than to keep her? ”
"How do you speak!" Xiao Yanzhi pinched Xiao Junmeng's nose, then turned his head and beckoned to Xiao Chunyue, saying, "Sister Chunyue, come here." ”
Xiao Chunyue stood in the farthest place from Xiao Yanzhi and the circle of people around Xiao Yanzhi, and the eyes of Xiao Yanzhi shook her head and waved her hand.
Seeing this, Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corners of his mouth and said helplessly: "Forget it, I'll introduce you to you another day." ”
Xiao Junmeng frowned and looked at Xiao Chunyue from head to toe, then leaned into Xiao Yanzhi's ear and asked in a low voice, "Brother, shouldn't you really empathize with each other?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Yanzhi also leaned into Xiao Junmeng's ear and whispered, "That's your sister." Remember what I told you? ”
Xiao Junmeng raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face, looked at Xiao Chunyue carefully, and said in surprise: "That is my sister?" ”
She heard everything about her sister from her brother, and the second and third brothers had never seen her sister, but she didn't expect to see them in her lifetime! But is that my sister? It seems like...... Nothing real.
Seeing that Xiao Junmeng saw that Xiao Chunyue was also only curious and not excited, Xiao Yanzhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Jun Meng's feeling at this moment is probably exactly the same as when he first met the emperor, Xu Lishan and Xu Liqian, even if he knew in his heart that the person in front of him was a relative who was indeed related to him, but at the same time, he was a stranger who had never met.
On this side, Xiao Yanzhi was thinking about how to enhance the relationship between Xiao Chunyue and her younger siblings, but over there, Pei Ze had already sat down and chatted with Yan Sheng.
"Why is Young Master Yan free today?" Pei Ze nodded politely.
Yan Sheng glanced at Xiao Yanzhi and said, "I got up early in the morning and listened to the people in the palace talking about the fight between the King of Shu and the King of Wu in Pingkangfang, and I was curious for a while, so let's take a look." ”
If a person like Xiao Yanzhi fights with someone, it is nothing more than two reasons, one is for the people he cares about, such as his younger siblings and the King of Wucheng in front of him, and the other is to be forced to do so. And Xiao Yanzhi and King Wu fought in Pingkangfang, no matter how you think about it, it has nothing to do with the first reason, so Yan Sheng felt that it should be the second reason.
But what could be the thing that forced Xiao Yanzhi to have to fight with his titular brother in such a public place? Is it really for a woman as the rumors say? Yan Sheng doesn't believe it, then the rest may be the reason for the government.
Thinking of this, Yan Sheng followed the Xiao family brothers and sisters to the Wucheng Mansion early in the morning, first, to see how Xiao Yanzhi's injuries were, and secondly, to see if Xiao Yanzhi had anything he could help with.
In Yan Sheng's opinion, Xiao Yanzhi is just very cheeky, if he really encounters trouble, Xiao Yanzhi should not take the initiative to involve his friends.
"It's already spreading?" Pei Ze's eyebrows moved slightly.
"Yes." Yan Sheng nodded, "It's a little fast." ”
What happened last night after the doors of the squares were locked could have spread from the east of the city to the west of the city early in the morning, and if it hadn't been for the fact that the news had grown wings and flew all over the city at night, it would have been the people who had learned the news who waited in the various squares before dawn, and preached it as soon as he saw people, so that he could hear such things when he got up.
"What exactly?" Xu Liqian really had to leave Xiao Yanzhi a little trouble before leaving.
Yan Sheng said: "The king of Shu was angry and rushed to the crown to be red-faced, not only fought against his younger brother, but also framed him, forcing King Wu to leave Chang'an City to save his life. ”
Pei Ze couldn't help but chuckle, but didn't say anything.
Yan Sheng squinted at Pei Ze, and then asked, "Do you want to help?" ”
Pei Ze raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Yanzhi, who was surrounded by the Xiao family's brothers and sisters, and said, "Young Master Yan can help take care of Ren'an and them, which is the biggest help for us." ”
"This is easy to say," Yan Sheng asked again, "At this time, King Wu has not been caught, so King Wu is afraid that he has already thrown off the pursuers and fled, right?" ”
"Eighty percent of them." Pei Ze lowered his face coldly.
He really didn't expect that Xu Liqian, who looked like Xiao Yanzhi, would be so capable, or did people who have the ability like to disguise themselves as immodest in these years?
After pondering for a moment, Yan Sheng said: "I will ask the Yan family caravan to pay attention, and if I find him, I will inform you." ”
Pei Ze glanced at Yan Sheng and said, "These things are not good for Young Master Yan to make a move." ”
Yan Sheng also turned his head to look at Pei Ze and said, "It's not for you." If war breaks out, it is not good for the merchants. ”
His Yan family does not open iron mines or sell grain, if there is a war, they will not be able to make a fortune by virtue of the war, but the caravans that travel all over the country will be unable to move because of the war. Compared with these princes and nobles, he is more afraid of war, after all, these people still have money to support, but if his Yan family's business stops, then the Yan family will be empty from top to bottom.
"Then there is Young Master Lao Yan." Since this matter is also related to Yan Sheng's own interests, Pei Ze has nothing to be polite about.
After asking all the questions that should be asked, Yan Sheng stood up and walked to Xiao Yanzhi's side.
As soon as they saw Yan Sheng coming over, Xiao Ren'an's brother and sister immediately gave up their positions.
Yan Sheng's gaze swirled around Xiao Yanzhi's body, and then asked, "Seriously injured?" ”
Xiao Yanzhi said with a smile: "It's not heavy, it's just a few bones, it's just that the decoction prescribed by the imperial doctor is too unpalatable." ”
Yan Sheng nodded and said, "I'll send someone over later, and let him show you." ”
Xiao Yanzhi blinked and asked, "Will the decoction prescribed by that person be better than that prescribed by the imperial doctor?" ”
Yan Sheng smiled lightly: "I don't guarantee it, but he is very good at healing bone injuries." ”
Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips, then nodded and said, "That's done, just borrow it from me." ”
"Rent it to you, you have to pay for it. Rest. As soon as the words fell, Yan Sheng strode towards the door of the Wucheng Palace.
Looking at Yan Sheng's back, Xiao Yanzhi shouted depressedly: "Why are you so stingy? You yourself said that you want to give it to me, how can you still collect money? ”
Yan Sheng didn't answer, and left the Wucheng Mansion in a blink of an eye.
Xiao Yanzhi showed a smile again.
He still prepared a few good bars for Young Master Yan.
