085 Unsettled
A glimmer of light rose on the horizon, piercing clouds of haze. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Lin Qixu got out of the camp tent and took a deep breath of the quiet and moist breath of the rain and the sunny sky, with the fresh smell of grass, and the surroundings were still silent.
She covered her mouth and yawned softly, but her eyes were surprisingly bright.
The unique books that Jiang Yun left her have had amazing effects in just over a month. Last night's thunderstorm and strong wind, where could she sleep, there was an empty bed beside her, and she didn't have to worry about anyone, so she simply meditated and breathed.
In the wee hours of the morning, the news from the dark guard lifted her heart, and a sour joy slowly welled up.
"Lin Gongzi, I have found the holy car, and I will be able to join the camp at the foot of the mountain in less than an hour."
Lin Qixu shuttled between the tents with light steps, and he didn't even bring Pei Jiu, who was sleeping on vigil. The maid was worried all night, and it was difficult to sleep, so she rested peacefully.
After the heavy rain, the mountain forest is full of broken branches and rotten trees, and the green leaves are withered. She swept her gaze around at the lush trees not far away, and a few chirping larks were still parked on the leafy branches.
Cheerful, and cheerfully rejoicing.
While most people were still asleep, she deliberately slowed her pace and skirted a medium tent of gold thread tapestry, but her ears were so good that she was listened to alive.
"Miss, you think clearly, no matter how uneasy and kind Madam is, taking care of the face of the Hou Mansion, she will not let you go wrong. Let's look at Zhang's mansion and know that there are a lot of concubines, and the main mother of Zhang Luo's marriage still plans to marry the one of the Zhao family, but the result is not yellow. For the reputation of the county lord, you are also a good family with a high family. ”
The little maid admonished bitterly.
The county lord? Hou Mansion? Lin Qixu paused, her eyebrows twisted slightly, and in her image, only the Jing'an Hou Mansion had the daughter of the county lord. Since it is related to the Jing'an Hou Mansion, just listen to it.
The woman was about the sister who came with Yang Zhao, and her voice was full of thick unwillingness: "Good family? My grandmother will promise me a good family? Qiumei, take a look, where are the concubines of our major mansions in the capital married. The two sisters of the Fuguo Mansion, their mother-in-law is famous for being virtuous and generous, and she usually wears and eats, which is noble enough, and she is not much more reckless than the concubines of ordinary official eunuchs. As a result, the eldest son of a concubine who married into the Xu family in Huaiyin, and there were a group of sons in the family, where did he come from. The other stayed in the capital, and he was still the second son of the Marquis of Wuxiang, but the Marquis of Wuxiang Mansion had not landed for a long time, not to mention that there was no real power, the family was chaotic, there were a lot of uncles and concubines, and the daily expenses were very tight. And that sister-in-law is still a good man. The sisters-in-law of other people's families, their parents' situation is not as good as these two, let alone after marriage. ”
The difference between the descendants and the concubines is a world of difference.
Lin Qixu's mind dimmed a little, and he was about to walk away silently.
I didn't want the female voice to be excited and uncontrollable, so I actually mentioned her name: "So Qiumei, you don't have to stop me." If the marriage is arranged by the mother-in-law, Bacheng will be the same as Concubine Lin of the Regent's Mansion, and he will be given something down-and-out and crippled. Look at the current appearance of the Lin family, even the queen talks and laughs with her, how many noblewomen look down on her in their hearts, don't they still stutter warmly on their faces. ”
Lin Qixu was speechless when he heard this, this person didn't want to take her as an example, but also calculated the regent, and mixed into the palace with arrogance.
Fortunately, the girl's next words reassured her: "I have played with him a few times since I was a child, and I have some affection, and his current future is good, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law are quite kind, I married to be a concubine, and I can also help the Hou Mansion to collect and help, and my father is about willing." When my father returns, how can I still allow my grandmother to act recklessly? ”
Oh, glad not the regent. I don't know which family is so unlucky, if it is tainted by the daughter of the concubine of the Marquis of Jing'an, even if it looks at the military power of the Marquis of Jing'an, it is not easy to go home. I only hope that the young grandmother or lady of that family will not be too glassy and fragile, otherwise it will be really unfavorable.
Lin Qixu is not nosy, and because she talked about herself before, she couldn't help but listen for a while. When she and the maid began to plan with great interest, how did they meet, be involved, and be witnessed...... All kinds of apostasy tricks, without recalling the memories of the past, how much like the former self. With a wry smile on her face, she walked away with twisted hands and feet, unwilling to listen more, so that on the day of the incident, she wanted to poke herself in the eyes.
If you stay a little longer that day, and you can hear the family behind you, everything will disappear.
The camp site was flat and wide, apparently had been taken care of early, and some of the trees and rocks had been removed, leaving only a few lonely stumps. The sky was still dim and dull, the morning light in the east was light purple, she looked up, only to see the dome under the gray and blue cover, slowly, faded, bordering the horizon, the water ** melted, turning into a faint halo.
Directly in front of her was a verdant, rain-stained sycamore, a hint of coolness passing through the cracks and facing her. Lin Qixu lowered her head and flattened her skirt that was messed up by a few broken branches, her thin figure was hidden under the wide sycamore leaves, and the old branches were extremely thick, lightly covering her thin body.
There were a few whispers, like the dew condensed in the early morning, and there was an amazing feeling of coolness.
“…… Garrison Lord... You can rest assured, the guards are on guard... It's going to be a ...... The Queen Mother is wise again, this trick leads to trouble...... And the regent......"
In a few words, her back was half wet.
The other sound seemed to be closer, rubbing something in his hand, and there was an occasional crisp "click". The man's words were concise and to the point: "The above ordered that the emperor be left alive." The rest of the people, etc., do not have to be polite. ”
"Yes, yes, these crossbows...... Ten arrows in a row will be able to... Leave no ...... in the armor Adults don't... Implicate...... Too blatant...... "The voice is a little trembling.
Crossbows!
Ten arrows in a row!
It's just a crossbow!
Recorded in the book given to her by Jiang Yun, all of them were handed down by ancient times, and countless skilled craftsmen were finally carried forward in the hands of Jiang Xin, but the cost was expensive and the materials were rare, so it was difficult to promote. Because of the friendship between the Yue clan and the Great Zhou, it was fortunate to introduce it.
Lian crossbow, Lian crossbow, as the name suggests.
Archery is like a bead, coherent and hairy, for Lian also.
Lin Qixu's breathing was as light as a cicada's wings, and among the leaves, she only heard their group drifting away, she cautiously drilled out the dense sycamores, and looked around for a long time. I only remember that the sound came from the southwest, because there was often a sound of bushes, and it was estimated that it was on the southwest side of the hill.
She clapped her hands.
Then there were clothes fluttering, standing in the shadows ahead, the dawn was still thin, but the birds in the mountains and forests were awakened by the sound of the group. The larks chirped and sang, wantonly under the half-light and half-dark sky.
Immediately relayed Fang Cai's words to Qi Chen. Hurry up! ”
The Dark Guard nodded slightly, and sped away.
Lin Qixu was frightened by these two whispers, and he walked around unrelentingly, wanting to reveal something confidential. It wasn't until the guards on duty came to change shifts that she sneaked into her tent without noticing.
On the soft and comfortable futon, she leaned on the pillow, puzzled.
If a thief can assassinate the emperor in broad daylight like this, it is obvious that there must be an internal response, what paddock defense map, mountain and forest topographic map, properly all, one should be in hand. She guessed correctly, it should be the sneaky figures she saw on the day she met Qichen again.
The emperor had a bottom in his heart, and his subordinates had already prepared, and originally planned to catch them all.
No one could have imagined that the Assassins would set fire to the forest!
The fire, raging, caught everyone off guard.
The so-called killing of 1,000 enemies and self-loss of 800.
In the end, the little emperor ignored the ferocious and vicious people who conspired against him, and he didn't care about anything, just to force you to the end of the mountain.
It's a pity that the heavens are not beautiful.
The overwhelming, hearty rain disrupted the thief's best plan and added extra difficulty to the search, and the weak body of the little emperor could survive it?
The moment the morning light pierced the night, the dawn gradually reflected crimson, and in the layers of the moonlight curtains, there were peonies outlined by silver threads in a rich and luxurious manner, flashing with alternating light, densely packed, and a little dazzling.
Lin Qixu's sleepy body, leaning on the soft brocade quilt, through a few wisps of morning light, the warm fragrance was soft. Her mind slowly calmed down like water, turned over slightly, broke free from the shackled slim coat, and lazily thought that there was Jiang Yun's secret guard by Jiang Yun's side to protect her life.
As for the rest, to hell with it.
The mist was everywhere shrouded in her lost dreams. She is still a girl who was abused as a child, covered with bedsores, thin hands and feet, and a thin body, but such a body must be for the ignorant sister, the soft brother, and the ... gave birth to her, but couldn't take care of her mother's plan.
Her mother was so gentle and delicate, softer than the spring wind.
Her mother is so knowledgeable and elegant, and she is more learned than the legendary Jinshi father.
Her mother will brew sweet and sour plum wine in spring, will make soft and delicious wisteria cakes in the scorching summer sun, and in autumn, her mother will take a boat to pick lotus roots, and under the north wind dripping into ice, she will welcome back the tortured with smiles and tears.
How much she loves her mother, how much she loves her mother.
However, the long-term oppression crushed the girl's delicate body, grinding out the blood of the ground. Lin Qixu hugged her cold tombstone on the night of countless mothers' deaths and burst into tears.
The moonlight was cold, stretching her lonely shadow and blowing down the frost and snow on the trees.
The jackdaws scream, the north wind howls.
She blamed herself and felt guilty as she hugged the piece of wood, trying to use her cold hands to cover the hard tablet, like the side of the charcoal basin on the kang many years ago. The woman with gentle eyebrows and infinite tenderness stared at her with a heartbreaking gaze, covering her feet that were numb and frostbitten from standing in the snow for a long time.
Mother, you probably don't know.
If Zhao is willing to extend an olive branch to his daughter, the daughter is very willing to forget all the grudges, happily throw herself into the arms of the enemy, laugh and play, and kneel down.
A bright future, a decent birth, and a high look at the servants.
Honor and pride at your fingertips.
I lost the east, but I never harvested the mulberry.
This kind of life probably stems from the deep gambling curse in my heart in the past.
The cycle of cause and effect is all reciprocated.
When I was young and ignorant, I was naïve enough to think that the Zhao family beat me and blamed me because I had a mother who didn't like her.
If...
If—
If my biological mother dies, will I be able to become the eldest lady?
Like the sister of the Wu family, she was raised under the knees of the main room, loved by her mother-in-law, and the world was kind. Or like Miss Chu, the granddaughter of the Mo family next door, with a comfortable smile and a noble life.
She stared down and gently stroked the rough and hard wooden plaque.
There was a tear in the corner of his eye, stretched by the frost and moonlight.
Mother, I was wrong.
