Chapter 126: Unveiling the Rods (5)
The four of them drank in front of the beautiful scenery, played with the poems for a while, and played with the pot throwing. Now that the enthusiasm is open, I somehow talked about the concubines in each family's house who are not very peaceful. The four of them, Mu Qing and the eldest grandson, because there were no concubines in the house, had no way to speak, so they only walked to the side and said a few words to avoid others.
Mu Qing deliberately wanted to ask about the situation after Li Shimin returned drunk that day, at that time, he sprinkled his heart with the smell of wine, his words were inevitably excessive, and he also felt some remorse in his heart, and because he was drunk and mistook himself for Yinghua, Mu Qing, the eldest grandson, was somewhat ashamed, so he only asked through words, how did she cover her mouth and smile, "The next day, he didn't remember what he said and did overnight, and Qi Niang didn't go to his heart." ”
Speaking of Li Shimin, there was a different look in her eyebrows and eyes, and she couldn't suppress the admiration and admiration on her face no matter how much she had always been self-controlled. Her look was something Mu Qing had seen since she first entered the Tang State Mansion five or six years ago, and every time she saw it, she felt familiar. After her marriage to Li Shimin two years ago, she suddenly realized that it was Mrs. Dou's expression in the past.
She actually wanted to emulate Mrs. Dou, bury the pain of bruising bones and peeling deep in her heart, and only use her burning love to refine magnanimity and peace, so as to win her husband's love. There is respect, but there is no love. After a long time, perhaps just like Mrs. Dou, she didn't dare to compete or be jealous, and in countless long nights, she relied on carefully reading the words written for her in her early years over and over again, copying them stroke by stroke, to comfort the hidden pain that still arises from time to time in her heart.
Mu Qing thought absentmindedly for a while, and after thinking about this layer randomly, the thoughts that were scratching at the bottom of her heart became more and more unstable, so she put aside other words, stared at her eyes, and asked: "How old is I older than you, I can't go through more things than you, and I am also familiar with Erlang's temperament, if I lay a few ideas for you, I will gather Erlang's thoughts......"
The eldest grandson's eyes immediately widened, and he was stunned and swiped across his face, and then lowered his head again, noncommittal. Mu Qing left some time for her to argue in her heart, so she sat quietly, turning her head to look at the rushing stream below, and then looking up at the snow on the top of the green mountains.
Estimating that she was almost entangled in a knot in her heart after all, Mu Qing turned around again, smiled softly earnestly, and broke her directly, "I am Yinghua's sister, and you should have doubts." There is only one sentence, which should not be spoken. ”
The eldest grandson hesitated and nodded, "Qi Niang said it directly, and it's okay." ”
Mu Qing smiled a little arrogantly: "Yinghua came out with me when she was young, and I know her temperament best. It is true that she and Erlang are in love, but in the bottom of the day, she never thought of competing with you for favor and love, not because she didn't care about Erlang, all because she never wanted to serve a husband with others, and she had an upright and noble presence. Yinghua She is an eagle falcon, she should fly unrestrained, and I don't want to see her fall into the inner house cage one day and become a bird competing for food, so I would rather lay a plan for you, and it will fulfill you and her. ”
The eldest grandson frowned, bit his lower lip and was stunned for a long time, and looked at Mu Qing's expression repeatedly, before letting go of the red lower lip, the corners of his mouth hooked a good-looking arc, and he actually stood up to salute Mu Qing, "Then Guanyin will rely on Gao Ming." ”
Mu Qing hurriedly stood up, excused her courtesy, and helped her to sit down again. "There's one right now, and it's like it's been delivered."
The eldest grandson suddenly paused for a moment, and the meaning between his eyebrows was not completely trusted, which taught Mu Qing to hesitate for a moment, whether this sentence was too eager for quick success, and it seemed too abrupt. Even if she is harmless, she will not be gullible.
"Lady, Ah Yue has a word, I want to ask for a show." The cold scene of the film suddenly taught Ah Yue to shatter, but when she saw her take two steps forward from behind, Ying Ying bent down, undecided, and groaned in embarrassment.
The eldest grandson listened to the voice like a warbler's cry, and glanced at Ah Yue, but it was an eye-catching, and his heart moved slightly.
She was used to hearing others praise her for her stunning color, and when she saw Ah Yue, she didn't feel stunned for a moment. After thinking about it, I secretly said in my heart, Gu Qi Niang usually only brought Na Liu by her side, but today she changed to this stunning one, if it is not for anything else, or if she wants to be promoted as a concubine, it is not known, and then I heard that Qi Niang suffered the loss of her sister in Jincheng County, and she has not been pregnant for three years since she lost her pregnancy......
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Ah Yue was extraordinary, and then she was still bent over, but she saw that Mu Qing was stunned, as if she was absent-minded, so she had to start a round and say, "If you have something to say, get up and go back." He raised his arms again and touched Mu Qing, who was not very focused.
Ah Yue stood up straight, pointed to the long table around the fence where the wine feast was set up, and before she spoke, her face was a little red, "When I came here in the morning, I saw piles of hungry people fleeing the famine on the outskirts of the city, the ladies were in the car or had never seen them, but the maids saw it really outside the car, which was very pitiful. Ah Yue thought privately, the rest of the food is useless, if it is better to use it for relief, if you can live one or two, it is also a great merit for the ladies. ”
Mu Qing secretly praised in her heart, what a girl, exquisitely ingenious, calmly handed the handle to her, she had such an impatience, but it was not in vain to look down on her. The eldest grandson on the other side was too far away from her expectations because of these words, but she didn't answer immediately, and only looked at Ah Yue quietly.
Mu Qing let out a "ah", stood up involuntarily, pulled Ah Yue and smiled at the eldest grandson: "This girl relied on me to look at her a few times, and she lost her body more and more, and just about to say something, she actually taught her to mess around." ”
Hearing Mu Qing say this, the eldest grandson only guessed seven or eight points correctly, then looked at Ah Yue, and said with a pun: "I think she is very good." The appearance is neat, the speech is also decent, and the most rare thing is that the character is good, and the heart is compassionate. As he spoke, he called someone to pick up the scraps, "If you abandon it, you will abandon it, but it is difficult for her to think about it, but the homeless gathering place is pickled and chaotic, and it is not good to teach her to go, and then I sent someone to send it." ”
"Yes, yes." Mu Qing suddenly came back to his senses, raised his forehead and chuckled, "The hungry people living on the outskirts of the city, just wanted to say this, she snatched it in my head." ”
The eldest grandson turned around and glanced at the other two ladies who were talking happily on the other side of the fence, and did not avoid Ah Yue at the moment, took Mu Qing's hand, and raised his chin towards the place behind the mountain rock, "Let's talk over there." ”
Mu Qing carefully turned to the cliff and rock, and the two sat under a big apricot tree that shaded the sun, and the eldest grandson sighed and said: "The hungry people outside the city are the order of Ah Weng, not to let one enter the city." It is true that the grain depot in Jinyang City is full, and if a precedent is set, anyone who enters the city will have no food in Jinyang. What's more, this grain is military food, if you want to use military food, there is still a Jinyang order on it, and a tiger Benlang general Wang Wei is not so easy. ”
"Jinyang Order...... Liu Wenjing? Mu Qing seemed to have heard Du Ruhui mention this person in a trance, but he couldn't remember what he had talked about, and he only vaguely remembered that he was as rare as Li Mi.
The eldest grandson nodded, "It seems to be this name." ”
"Erlang, how do you say it? But also agreed with Princess Li Zhang? Mu Qing asked again.
"He ......" the eldest grandson's face was indeed shy, and very quickly, it was replaced by worry, "In the head, he still had a dispute with Ah Weng over the matter of the hungry people, and thought that he had originally advocated opening a position, and then Mr. Du came to persuade him once, although he pressed it, he was still angry, and there was nothing he could do for a while." ”
Mu Qing lowered his head and sighed, and then looked at the cliffs and boulders opposite, the mountains and rivers that the dragon roared and rushed over, and he was full of energy. The eldest grandson waited for a while and didn't see her respond, and urged in a low voice: "Sister Gu has a way?" ”
She suddenly changed her name, Mu Qing estimated that this matter had probably hit her heart, but she was still steady, not in a hurry to reply to her, nor did she turn her head, still looking at the landscape. Affectionately recalled, "This is not to complain that Erlang is anxious and annoyed. In the ninth year of the great cause, Yang Xuangan rebelled, and Li Gong responded to the order to garrison Honghua County, because of the difficulty of Honghua's long history, 80,000 soldiers and horses only dared to report 20,000, so only 20,000 people were allocated grain and grass. At that time, Erlang and the soldiers were starving together, until the new chief was replaced. He tasted the pain of hunger with his own body, and he felt compassion for the hungry people. ”
The eldest grandson lowered his eyes, nodded again and again, his heart was anxious, and his face was still peaceful, "Hate only hates me for being weak, if you can have such a talent as Sister Gu, you must help him." ”
When it was time for the fire, Mu Qing smiled and said, "Madame doesn't break me if she says this." This matter was not difficult to do, but now that Li Gong does not teach the displaced people to enter the city, then he will not enter the city. The displaced people can't enter the city, but we have no obstacle when we go out of the city, so we only scraped together the funds to buy rice and grain in the city, and set up a scaffolding kettle on the outskirts of the city every day, cooking porridge and discarding it, which is limited to one month, or can save the people from the dire situation, and can also solve Erlang's worries, and he can't help but look at his wife differently. ”
The eldest grandson's heart was excited, and she leaned over, her eyes flashing, "I'm so stupid, why can't I think of this method, and I can't teach Sister Gu to mention it." After a while, she sat back down, her eyes darkening again, "If Ah Weng doesn't like it, blame me ......."
"Madame, don't worry. If Li Gongruo dislikes it, he only said that the Li family commanded the army to suppress the bandits, and it was inevitable to kill, and it was useless to do good deeds. Mu Qing pressed her hand and said: "On the other hand, Mrs. may as well use the name of Erlang when giving porridge, he can win the hearts of the people, but Mrs. can collect his heart, isn't it beautiful?" If Li Gong complains again, are you still afraid that Erlang will not protect his wife? ”
The eldest grandson blushed with shame, took out his hand from under Mu Qing's palm, stroked his face, and nodded again in thanks.
The matter was settled, and the four of them gossiped together for a while, and then they boarded the car and returned to the city with their own thoughts.
On the way back to the city, Ah Yue admired her lady very much in the car, and was relieved for the refugees on the outskirts of the city for a while, and jumped for a long time.
"What's not to think about? I'll tell you what to say. Mu Qing smiled and gently nudged her.
"Our family's Yinghua was so intolerant of Mrs. Changsun before, although she is far away from her now, after all, there is no conclusion, Ah Yue doesn't understand, why does the lady have her elbow outward, and she wants to help Mrs. Changsun?"
Mu Qing weighed it carefully in his heart, Ah Yue was talented, insightful and smart, and had a somewhat competitive heart, such a character, he would not be able to determine the blessing and misfortune in the future. Fortunately, seeing that she is willing to stand up for those who are suffering, but the texture of her heart is good, it is better to take advantage of the situation to teach more, so that she will not go sideways in the future.
Thinking of this, she unconsciously hid her smile, held Ah Yue's shoulder, and said with a straight face: "Have you ever thought that if I don't fight for her face, how many hungry people will starve to death outside the city?" How many children should be put into the big stone mortar that crushes bones and flesh after death, and becomes soup? Maybe it won't be long before even the living children will be doomed. ”
Ah Yue lowered her eyes and nodded slowly. "It's just...... It's just Anglo-Chinese ......"
Mu Qing aggravated his tone and said word by word: "How can the private relationship between Yinghua and Erlang be compared to the fresh lives outside the city." Ah Yue, you should remember that there is no selfish desire in this world, which can overshadow the righteousness of humanity. ”
Ah Yue raised her head and blinked, and said her words to herself twice in her heart, I understand, I don't understand everything.
