Chapter 62 Sima Gongzi
Time passed quickly, and in about half a month, Biluo's injury had almost recovered, and she was already able to get out of bed and walk around. Dong Xiaoyou, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, is naturally meticulous to Biluo, and even often changes the medicine for Biluo in person, which makes Biluo moved.
On this day, Dong Xiaoyou, as usual, took Bailing to Wanchun Garden to meet Princess Wannian. Liu Ying smiled and asked Dong Xiaoyou to sit down, and then said to her: "Sister Rong, you came just in time, there is a VIP visiting today, and this palace wants you to see him." β
After speaking, a young man wearing a white embroidered blue border walked into the courtyard, Dong Xiaoyou saw that it was a foreigner and a man, and felt that it was not appropriate, and asked Liu Ying in a low voice: "Sister Princess, is he?" β
Liu Ying smiled and nodded, motioned for the man to take a seat, and then said, "This is a half-immortal, Sima Li." β
The man saluted the princess, and then arched his hand towards Dong Xiaoyou: "The grass people meet the princess of Wannian." I've seen Miss Rong. β
Dong Xiaoyou looked at him: his appearance seemed to be only in his teens and twenties, but his beard was a rare brown, his eyes were like meteors, the bridge of his nose was high, he was very handsome, his expression was calm, he didn't seem to care much about the identity of the princess, and when he saw Dong Xiaoyou's eyes looking at him, he just smiled at Dong Xiaoyou's closed eyes, which made Dong Xiaoyou's face a little red, and he hurriedly looked away, but thought to himself: This person is more handsome than several brothers of the Xu family, Gongsun Du and Wang Xuan.
Liu Ying saw that Dong Xiaoyou's cheeks were red, frowned, and then said: "This Sima Gongzi is an old friend of the imperial brother of this palace, he has traveled all over the world and is knowledgeable. β
Dong Xiaoyou thought in his heart: Sure enough, it is the old friend of the King of Luling, otherwise how could the princess who has been raised in the deep palace since she was a child know this man who calls himself "grass people"?
She followed the instructions of the princess, bowed to Sima Li, and said softly: "Concubine Xu Rong, I have seen Sima Gongzi. β
Sima Li nodded at her, and then said to Liu Ying: "I heard Brother Yi talk about this woman earlier, and when I saw it today, it was really Tianzi and the country, Brother Yi really has a good eye." Dong Xiaoyou listened, his face drooped, and his face turned even redder.
Liu Ying said with a smile: "Sima Gongzi has won the award, and the royal brother of this palace is actually not a person who covets beauty. This tone was already a little displeased, it seemed that she couldn't see others praising Xu Rong in front of her.
"This is nature, and the grass people are just jokes." Sima Li still smiled calmly.
Liu Ying turned her head and said to Dong Xiaoyou: "This Sima Gongzi can be regarded as your life-saving benefactor, don't you thank others?" β
Dong Xiaoyou wondered: "Life-saving benefactor? She couldn't remember when she was saved by this man.
Liu Ying looked at her with a puzzled expression, raised her eyebrows, and said proudly: "Didn't this palace promise you before, and I want to change those market rumors for you?" In this regard, thanks to the contribution of Sima Gongzi, he is also a well-respected wise man among the people, and he compiled the story between you for the imperial brother as an old friend of the imperial brother, and now the people are talking about it. In addition, you are the one who wants to become the favorite concubine of the King of Luling in the future, and now your Xu family's business is getting hotter and hotter, I'm afraid that in a few days, your family will write to tell you all this. β
Dong Xiaoyou listened, her anxious heart finally calmed down, she believed that the princess would not deceive herself in this matter, it seemed that everything had passed...... Although she was very unwilling in her heart, there was no doubt that this time it was indeed thanks to the help of Princess Wannian, she looked at Liu Ying gratefully, and then bowed to Sima Li, and said very sincerely: "I am grateful to Master Sima for saving her life, and the concubine is very ashamed." β
Sima Li hurriedly got up and said: "Miss Rong, don't do this big gift, it's just a little bit of cool strength, and it's also entrusted by the princess and the king of Luling, it's worth it, it's worth it!" β
Dong Xiaoyou said excitedly: "Despite this, the concubine's innocence and reputation have been discredited, and the Xu family is in dilapidation, without the best help of the princess and Sima Gongzi and others, the concubine is dead, and the Xu family's family business cannot be preserved, without you, the concubine will die without peace!" As she spoke, she bowed to Sima Li, and then to the princess.
Liu Ying saw it, smiled and nodded.
Sima Li's face was calm, but he praised in his heart: Yes, a filial daughter who takes care of the whole family can inadvertently save this woman's life, but it is also very worthwhile.
Liu Ying's personal maid Qingxue brought her the medicinal soup that she had to drink every day, and said, "Your Princess, your medicinal soup has been prepared. β
Sima Li smelled the smell of medicine, thought for a moment, and then said, "Doesn't the princess drink this medicine every day?" β
Liu Ying replied: "Yes, Mrs. Zhang said that this medicine is an earthwork from Xuansu County, which is very beneficial to the body. The palace also invited a famous doctor from Xuanwu County to inquire, and it was indeed this kind of medicine, so he took it every day. β
Liu Ying did not suspect Mrs. Zhang's intentions, but one she didn't think that a woman as smart as Mrs. Zhang would openly poison the royal family, and second, she also consulted several local doctors, and came to the conclusion that this kind of medicine is indeed a very good medicine, so she thought that this might be Mrs. Zhang's flattery to herself, because after she arrived here, she would definitely hear about this miracle medicine after a long time, and then Mrs. Zhang would be disgusted by herself because she didn't say it earlier, so Mrs. Zhang told herself about this medicine in advance.
Sima Li said with a smile: "This medicine is indeed good for the body, the princess drinks it every day, and in a few months, her body will be more healthy and powerful, and even if she gives birth, her life will not be in danger." β
Liu Ying smiled slightly and said, "Sima Gongzi is really a learned person, I didn't expect that you could smell even the home remedies so far away from Youzhou." β
"Hehe, as long as it is a clever thing, the grass people are slightly proficient, and the grass people travel the world in order to find all the strange things in the world."
"Childe is really rare...... This palace thinks that if a wise man like you can assist the imperial brother wholeheartedly, why worry about the uncertainty of the world? The people are uneasy? In the future, wouldn't it be a good story for the prince to go to the pavilion to worship the prime minister, glorify the ancestors, and live for a hundred generations? β
"Don't laugh at the princess, the grass people are just ordinary people, and they don't like restraint by nature, so they are really not suitable for entering the court as officials."
"Alas...... I heard that the imperial brother invited the prince no less than ten times, but the prince refused, if so, it would be fine, the palace just felt sorry for the people of the world. β
"The princess is serious."
Dong Xiaoyou listened to their conversation on the side, and his heart was full of thoughts: Who is this Sima Li? Looking at the feeling of his immortal wind bones, it seems that he is indeed somewhat similar to that Luling Wang Yizhen, and it is really like a gathering of things. But Yizhen has not completely departed from the world, and is still worried about the world, but this Sima Li is completely open-minded...... It's a pity that my history of the Three Kingdoms is only derived from novels like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and I don't know if there are people like Sima Li in history. Or rather...... This Sima Li is a hermit master, or is he using a pseudonym? Sima...... Could it be Sima Yi?? Dong Xiaoyu thought of this, and suddenly felt funny: the sea of people is vast, how can there be such a coincidental thing? Being able to meet Uncle Liu Bei by chance last time was already a coincidence within a coincidence.
Sima Li found that his conversation with the princess seemed to snub Dong Xiaoyou, so he turned his head and asked, "Listen to Brother Yi, this Miss Rong has a lot of feelings about the general trend of the world?" β
Dong Xiaoyou suddenly realized that Sima Li was asking himself, and quickly came back to his senses and looked at them.
Seeing Dong Xiaoyou's panicked expression, Liu Ying knew that she must have "deserted" just now, and asked with some dissatisfaction: "Sima Gongzi asked you, why didn't you answer?" β
Dong Xiao thought about it for a while, and simply copied it...... She said: "The general trend of the world...... The concubine thinks that it is, and it will be together for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. β
When Liu Ying heard this, she wanted to attack on the spot: According to her statement, it seems that the country of the Han family is about to fall apart? is so alarmist, if her father listens, he will definitely order her to be pushed out and beheaded.
Sima Li smiled: "It also makes sense, Qin destroyed the Seven Kingdoms, and then the world rebelled; Wang Mang usurped power, and then the world begged ......for it" He saw the princess's expression of wanting to be angry, and looked at the princess, telling her to calm down, and then said: "The sun is in the middle of the day, and the moon is full." In this world, there is indeed no lasting and unchanging statement. β
Liu Ying listened and thought thoughtfully: since the first emperor, there has been more and more chaos in the world, and it has become more and more frequent, and because of the frequent disasters throughout the country in recent years, the people are not happy...... Although she is in the deep palace in these major events in the world, she has heard of them. And the most shocking thing this year is that Zhang Jiao, which led hundreds of thousands of rebels to attack various places, and united all parties to rebellious armies, almost shaking the fundamental ...... of the Han dynasty If it weren't for this, her father would not have married her to Xuansu County, trying to use her to control the wealthy families of the scholars in the border areas, it was really because the imperial court had already been powerless, even if someone in the eastern Liaodong region wanted to establish himself as the king at this time, the imperial court did not have the extra troops to go to the northeast region to crusade against the ministers. Thinking like this, she sighed helplessly.
Dong Xiaoyou saw the princess sighing, thinking that he had annoyed the princess, so he hurriedly apologized to Liu Ying: "Rong'er Fang is just casually speaking, not thoughtful, and I hope the princess will not be surprised." β
Liu Ying waved her hand: "There is no fault in what you say, your words are indeed somewhat reasonable." This palace also wants to ask you, now that the imperial brother is assisting General Lu Zhi against Zhang Liang in Jizhou, who do you think will win and who will lose? β
"The Yellow Turban Thieves are bound to fail, Rong'er can promise you!" Dong Xiaoyou clearly remembered that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was a failure, so she said to the princess with confidence.
Sima Li was amused by her naΓ―ve behavior: Zhang Liang's army is strong, and he has been fighting against Lu Zhijun for several months, the war will never end overnight, and the army is dangerous, there is no such thing as an absolute winner in this world, I really don't know where this girl's confidence comes from.
Liu Ying likes to listen to this kind of words, as long as the battle ahead, then the rebels can be eliminated quickly, so that the imperial brother can return triumphantly, although this Xu Rong's words may just be a blessing to the king of Luling, but this kind of words, everyone loves to hear. So Liu Ying smiled, then picked up the medicine bowl and drank the medicinal soup mixed with honey in one go.
Dong Xiaoyou looked at the bowl of black Chinese medicine, even though she knew that there was a lot of honey in it to drive away the bitter taste, she still frowned, anyway, no matter what the effect was, she didn't want to drink it, she always felt that it would be very bitter.
"Princess, Miss Rong...... So, today's grass people will say goodbye. Sima Li got up and was about to leave.
"It's rare for Sima Gongzi to meet with this palace, and he is leaving so soon?"
"It's almost time, and the grass people are inconvenient to disturb it, so it's better to leave early." Sima Li arched his hand and got up to go out.
At this time, Wang Yan happened to come to the outside of Wanchun Garden, and when she saw a foreign man coming out of the garden, she subconsciously lowered her head and stood aside.
Sima Li walked past her, and suddenly he stopped, turned his head sharply, and grabbed Wang Yan: "Girl, what is in your sachet...... What kind of incense is put on? β
Liu Ying and Dong Xiaoyou happened to come out of the garden to see off the guests, and when they saw this scene, they were all surprised, Liu Ying hurriedly asked, "Sima Gongzi, who are you?" β
Sima Li frowned, looked at Wang Yan carefully, looked at the princess again, and said, "Princess...... Forgive the grass people for their courage, this young lady, doesn't she come to see you every day? β
