Chapter 159: That Taste Is Called Sadness
Bao Jianfeng turned his head and followed Jiang Moyan's gaze to a table by the window in the innermost part of the lobby. There were several men in leather robes sitting www.biquge.info the pavilion, their full beards blocking half of their faces, and their deeply sunken eyes made people know at a glance that they were from the Northern Underworld.
Bao Jianfeng understood, grabbed the guy, chose a seat in the lobby on the first floor, and ordered a few hard dishes, plus a pot of wine.
Bao Jianfeng poured himself a drink, Jiang Moyan slowly picked up the vegetables, and neither of them spoke.
The Northern Underworld man at the table next to him kept talking. Maybe because they used the local language of the Northern Underworld, they thought that everyone couldn't understand it, so they had no scruples about speaking. How did they know that Bao Jianfeng had lived in the Northwest Pass for a long time, and he spoke very fluently in the Northern Underworld, and Jiang Moyan had not been idle for the past year, although what he said was not authentic, there was no problem in listening.
I only heard a tall man say in the Northern Underworld dialect: "Big brother, the price of rice in Hengzhou City is so high, why did you run out instead?" If you have money and don't make it, will you not lose it? ”
The man who was called the eldest brother was a fat man, and he sighed and said, "Where will my brother have silver that he doesn't earn?" It's not that the wind over there has been too tight recently, and my brother was scared, so he ran out. ”
"Hasn't Hengzhou always been peaceful? Even if there is a war, you can't fight Hengzhou! ”
"That's what happened, but I don't know why, the price of rice in Hengzhou has been much higher recently, I quietly observed a rice shop of my own, and found that a lot of rice was bought by soldiers. And ......" At this, the fat man leaned close to the other person's ear and whispered a few words, for fear of being heard.
Jiang Moyan no matter how good their ears were, they couldn't hear the whispers in their ears.
After a while, the tall man exclaimed, "Really! How is that possible? ”
The fat man said: "How is it impossible, now the world is going to be chaotic." I heard from a friend in Jingshi that the price of rice in Jingshi is also high, and many families have begun to mix coarse grains into the pot. ”
The tall man sighed and said, "It looks like it's really going to be messy." Fortunately, you're here, otherwise you won't be able to get over when we fight here, and you'll be in trouble when you get stuck there. Sister-in-law, I have settled down with them, and I will wait for you. ”
The fat man nodded and began to say something of thanks.
Jiang Moyan and Bao Jianfeng glanced at each other and didn't speak, but both of them had some doubts in their hearts. The war has just begun, how can the North Hells be short of food? Could it be that something went wrong inside them?
Seeing that those Northern Underworld people didn't say anything important, the two hurriedly finished their meal and wanted to go back to the barracks. Since she has doubts, Jiang Moyan will not let go easily, she wants to send a message to the Shenma who is far away in the North as soon as possible, so that they can find out the exact information as soon as possible.
With such a capable general as Jiang Moyan, the affairs of military affairs made Bao Jianfeng feel very relaxed. He and Jiang Moyan walked back as they tentatively said to Jiang Moyan: "Mo Yan, you have been following His Highness Nine for a long time, do you know what kind of woman His Highness Nine likes?" ”
Jiang Moyan was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't understand why Bao Jianfeng would ask such a question, so he couldn't help but ask, "How can the eldest brother care about His Highness's affairs?" Don't you also want to send a woman to Your Highness? I advise you not to think about it, Your Highness has never been interested in women. ”
Bao Jianfeng saw that Jiang Moyan's expression had not changed, and said, "Isn't it right?" As long as it's a man, it's impossible not to think of a woman. I just went to His Highness Nine to look for you, and I almost broke His Highness's good deeds. ”
Jiang Moyan was shocked, and couldn't help but stop and asked, "What?" What did Big Brother just see? ”
When Bao Jianfeng saw Jiang Moyan's face suddenly changing color, his heart was also stagnant, and he regretted that he had just talked too much. He hesitated for a moment before carefully saying, "Just ...... I was at His Highness Nine, and I saw His Highness Nine following him...... With that Yue Qianxue...... made love, and made my brother blush. ”
Jiang Moyan only felt that the blood in her whole body instantly dropped to the freezing point, permeating with coldness from the inside out, and a sad emotion occupied her whole body, making her unable to say a word for a long time.
Bao Jianfeng had never seen Jiang Moyan look like this, and he couldn't help but be stunned. Could it be that she really cares about that person? Bao Jianfeng felt bitter in his heart. He looked at Jiang Moyan's somewhat sloppy eyes and sighed, wanting to find a topic to break this oppressive atmosphere.
"Men, it's normal to have a woman." Bao Jianfeng said tentatively, turned his head to look at Jiang Moyan, and saw that she was just following him mechanically, and seemed to be deaf to what she had just said, so he reached out and pulled her sleeve, let her come back to her senses, and said to her with a straight face: "Mo Yan, His Royal Highness the Ninth is the prince." The royal family has royal rules, and he is destined to be rich and glorious in his life, surrounded by beautiful women, which is different from these small people such as me. ”
Jiang Moyan was really shocked just now, although those situations were also within her expectations, but when she was really told to her face, it was a different taste, and that kind of taste was called pain, sadness, cruelty, and heartbreak. Now that she heard Bao Jianfeng's words again, she tasted another taste, called resignation.
When she fled from the palace and escaped from his side, it was because she accepted her fate and knew that she couldn't get it, so she had to leave with resignation. Although the days of the past year have been tormenting day by day, it is better than the heartbreak of facing the cruel reality now.
Jiang Moyan took a deep breath and said to Bao Jianfeng with a strong fighting spirit: "Big brother is right, His Royal Highness is a prince, and the prince has the life of a prince, how can I and other ordinary people compare." It's not too early, let's go back quickly, the younger brother still has something fresh to show the eldest brother. ”
Bao Jianfeng saw that Jiang Moyan had recovered, and he was also relieved in his heart, and hurriedly changed the topic, "What is new?" You've got something new to come up with, I can't wait to see it......"
The two gradually drifted apart, and their figures slowly disappeared into the crowd.
The next day, all the generals above the fourth rank were summoned to the government to discuss matters. Feng Jiutian's gaze wandered through the crowd, paused slightly on Jiang Moyan, and quickly moved away.
"I summoned you here today to tell you that while the Northern Underworld Army is moving south, we will start from here to attack Hengzhou and Dingzhou, and go straight into the enemy's hinterland. Now that I am marching northward, I need to reorganize the three armies. ”
Feng Jiutian's voice was not loud, but it made everyone present commotion. Bao Jianfeng came out of the queue and said to Feng Jiutian: "Your Highness, the last general is willing to be the vanguard......
Before he could finish speaking, another voice also came: "Your Highness, the last general is willing to be the vanguard." ”
Bao Jianfeng turned his head and saw a square face that was also being seen, and the disdain and challenge in the other party's eyes were obvious, it was Jiang Maocai of the Western Army.
Feng Jiutian looked at the two of them, and his eyes inadvertently looked at Jiang Moyan.
Jiang Moyan frowned slightly, she had already heard of the open and secret battles between the Western Army and the Northwest Army. And she also knew that from Feng Jiutian's point of view, it seemed that she was more willing to support the Western Army. Not to mention the matter of letting go of Yue Qianxue, just the attitude of Yue Fuchen, the general of Fuxi, towards Feng Jiutian's obvious support was far superior compared to Du Kan in the Northwest Pass.
