Chapter 39 Stratagem Parting Ways
From the moment they met again in the paddock, Lan Qiduo had an idea, that is, to beat Xiahou Yi to the board!
She is a royal princess, and she has a thousand and ten thousand reasons to beat people, but every time she is coincidentally avoided by Xiahou Yi, so that in this mutually beneficial situation, Xiahou Yi can't do anything with Lan Qiduo, and Lan Qiduo can't do anything to Xiahou Yi.
However, this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fulfilled Lan Qiduo's dream in this teahouse with careless decoration and complicated personnel!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't give Xiahou Yi a chance to explain, and directly viciously ordered the accompanying guards: "Take it!" ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not a boudoir son and daughter like Lan Qiduo, and Xiahou Yi naturally would not treat such a noble-born and well-informed adult man with the same attitude, so when he saw the prince coming in angrily, he saluted and let the two guards escort him away without any resistance.
"Your Royal Highness, the last general has not done anything more than ...... to Her Royal Highness the Princess"
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't have much reason to speak of this time, and before Xiahou Yi finished speaking, he punched Xiahou Yi in the stomach!
The prince was originally a man who knew kung fu, not to mention that he went to the battlefield and directly beat Xiahou Yi with a muffled snort.
"Sixty sticks!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now jumping out word by word angrily! Fortunately, those who followed him were confidants, and they actually understood the prince's words.
The main camp of the Dingxi army was thirty miles outside the city, and the two guards even obeyed the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and called the Dingxi army who were still training out to watch the execution.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was convicted of "insulting the royal family", Xiahou Yi was a general, and the soldiers looked at him with the head of the horse, and some people were unwilling to be beaten during the execution, and quietly asked Xiahou Yi what he had done, Xiahou Yi naturally would not ruin Lan Qiduo's reputation, only said that he drank and made trouble, and accidentally pointed to the nose of a prince and scolded someone!
Royal people are naturally proud, who else in this imperial city can walk sideways more confidently than them? How can you stand being pointed at and scolded? This is really abnormal! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no choice but to send someone to apply for it!
Xiahou Yi finished speaking. Seeing the soldiers he brought with him a blow on their faces, he had to smile bitterly.
Fortunately, it is more comforting that sixty military sticks can't kill people, and they have to lie in bed for at least half a month, but Xiahou Yi used the reason of drinking and making mistakes to make the soldiers who have nothing to do during the holidays in the barracks dare not go out to cause trouble. The general is a fourth-grade official and has been beaten, won't these little minions who have no grade and no rank be arrested and sent to the prison cell if they commit a crime? That's for another time.
But it was said that Lan Qiduo saw that his brother was angry at this time, and he didn't dare to say a word, there is a kind of person who rarely gets angry, but when he gets annoyed, he is much more powerful than ordinary people. Lan Qiduo remembered that only when he was a child, the tortoise was torn apart, and his brother was so angry.
Unexpectedly, the prince did not get angry, but walked up to Lan Qiduo and raised his hand to wipe the icing off her face: "Next time you want to eat snacks, just tell my brother, my brother will take you out, you know?" ”
The prince treated Lan Qiduo so gently, but the strength in his hand did not lighten up, and when he stopped satisfied, Lan Qiduo's face also turned red. For such a prince, it is strange that Lan Qiduo is not afraid.
Sure enough, when the prince returned to the East Palace to see Lan Qiduo away, he was furious and pulled down the guards who went out with Lan Qiduo, and each beat 30 boards, and Xiao Tuxi, who was serving closely, even played 40 boards, not to mention being fined for three months, which made everyone in Fengqi Palace endanger themselves.
"That Xiahou Yi who should be cut with a thousand knives, guess what he was doing when I went in, he actually wanted to be light on Lan Lan, he was not as good as a beast! He's almost crowned, and Lan Lan is not yet fourteen years old! ”
The crown prince walked around in the East Palace, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as angry: "And Lan Lan." She actually went out to meet others without me, and I did everything possible to stop Xiahou Yi, but she ran out by herself! ”
The crown princess kept watching His Royal Highness the Crown Prince go back and forth, and waited until His Royal Highness the Crown Prince calmed down a little before she said helplessly: "Your Highness has forgotten about it." Lan Lan has grown up! ”
The crown prince looked at the crown princess blankly.
The crown princess said good-naturedly: "Lan Lan is originally a very assertive girl, she is the same as the boudoir, but she is not the same as the children of the boudoir, as the princess of Daqi, she is destined to have more knowledge than others." And the daughter's parents will have their own hearts when they are older, but His Royal Highness has forgotten about it. The concubine also met His Royal Highness at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and at that time the concubine was just a little girl who happened to meet you in the bookstore! ”
"But she has to tell me when she goes out to see others! Can I stop her? "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince feels very wronged.
For the first time, the crown princess felt that His Royal Highness the crown prince also had the urge to pry his head open, and once again said in a good voice: "The princess didn't greet you when she went out before!" ”
Suddenly say hello, it seems that there is no silver three hundred taels here, okay?
"......" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was speechless, and silently thought for a while that he had beaten Lan Qiduo's guards inexplicably, and how could he let the people below do their best for his sister in the future? With some sighs, he said, "Lonely still has something, that ...... Lan Lan's guards, you can take care of it! ”
The crown princess looked at the man who seemed to be running away from the desert with a smile and a smile, is this called beating a stick to give a sweet date? She then arranged for someone to summon the guards' families.
Lan Qiduo is also very sorry for the innocent guards who were implicated, but as a princess, she naturally can't express her apologies, so Mama Yun used money to smash people again.
No wonder the maidservants and eunuchs serving in other palaces envy the people around Lan Qiduo, and it is not unreasonable for them to grab their heads and want to serve Lan Qiduo, although the risk is high, but they can't stand the welfare!
For example, when it comes to food, Her Royal Highness the princess's appetite is so big, but often those who pay tribute from other places are the most delicacies and rare fruits to Fengqi Palace, Her Royal Highness the princess is naturally unable to eat alone, and will naturally reward the people below, and the palace maids and eunuchs who serve closely are very good at being people, so even if it is a little bit of a person, the small place in the side hall of Fengqi Palace is often happy!
Since the incident of Xiahou Yi happened, it can be regarded as a wake-up call for His Royal Highness the Prince, on the one hand, he has been urging familiar people to find a husband for Lan Qiduo, and on the other hand, he is thinking about moving Xiahou Yi far away, people like Xiahou Yi, especially he is not just a simple noble son. He also has a strange experience that is different from others, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is afraid that he will not give up if he does not achieve his goal, when he pushed open the door and went in, he clearly saw Xiahou Yi looking at his sister with the same eyes as he looked at the crown princess!
That's why he took advantage of the situation to beat Xiahou Yi with sixty military sticks. With this kind of recovery ability of young people in the army, it is estimated that he will be able to recover in half a month, but at that time, he probably already has the best of both worlds, which can not only keep Xiahou Yi from appearing in the capital, but also find the most reasonable excuse. So the best of both worlds!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually thought about marrying his sister to Xiahou Yi, but the bad thing was that he didn't have so much power, and he couldn't express the idea of marrying his sister to a military general, because since the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty, there has never been a precedent for marrying a princess to a military general! Although it is not an ancestral family law, it is an unwritten rule after so many years! As for the reason, it is said that you will only know after you become an emperor!
What's more, the point is that Xiahou Yi is not a good match! This can be seen from his attitude towards Lan Lan and his own attitude! I think that back then, he quietly flattered the pedantic and stubborn brother of the crown princess with the supreme prince, and he didn't care about any identity or non-identity at all, and when Xiahou Yi saw him, he had an expression that you are my top boss, even if such a person with a heart like steel had a slight affection for Lan Lan?
Just when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in a dilemma. Here's your chance!
The Lantern Master has been traveling all over the world for several years, and he is finally coming back! For Master Minglan himself, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually doesn't have much impression anymore, after all, he is an unfamiliar person, the only thing he remembers is that he said that Lan Lan's soul is unstable and needs a piece of ebony to calm his soul!
Now there is a more perfect excuse, that is, Lan Qiduo already has ebony, let the Ming Lantern Master see if there is anything inappropriate, even if the Ming Lantern says it is all right, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also has a way to let Lan Qiduo stay in the Huguo Temple to recite the scriptures and pray for blessings for three months.
And he has the most irrefutable excuses. That is filial piety.
If you dream of your mother on the battlefield, but the conditions were bad at the time, there was no way to worship, and now when you return to the capital, you can have a stick of incense in the small Buddha hall of the East Palace in the morning and evening. Copy the mantra for the queen's mother, but in the end it is not as solemn as Huguo Temple......
The mind was a little decided, and the excuse couldn't be more perfect, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince began to prepare for Lan Qiduo to go to Huguo Temple to fast, and within three days, he made himself haggard! The crown prince will soon become the only son left by his side. Emperor Kangtai still cares about the crown prince very much!
Speaking of the deceased queen, even the emperor was silent, so the prince planned to take his sister and wife and children to Huguo Temple to repay the vows and was soon allowed, before leaving, he quietly said to Lan Qiduo: "Actually, I dreamed of the queen mother not because of other things, but because I was afraid that my father would be sad, I didn't tell the truth, when the queen mother died, you were only about two years old, and the queen mother was most at ease with you!" I guess it was probably when your hand was injured and in danger that the queen mother felt the spirit, so she gave me a dream! ”
Lan Qiduo has a vague memory of the word queen mother since she was a child, but there are many people who tell her what a gentle and amiable woman she is, how much she loves her, even if she was young at the time and doesn't remember, but the warm feeling of being surrounded by soft sunlight all day long has always existed in the deepest part of her heart, and she couldn't be closer to her heart!
Now when I heard that the queen mother entrusted her dream to her brother, she was still worried about her, and although she wondered why she was worried about her dream to her brother, she still decided to fast for three months! Lan Qiduo never thought that the brother of the same mother would also deceive people! It's just that the prince has a very accurate grasp of Lan Qiduo's character, although deceiving his closest sister makes the prince feel a little guilty, but when he thinks of being able to stay away from Xiahou Yi, the prince completely suppresses this guilt.
Yuan Jiagong mainly went to Huguo Temple to pray for the queen's mother This matter did not cause much turmoil in the palace, and some generals who were still stationed on the southeast coast arranged all the follow-up things will return to the capital, and there will be a celebration banquet in mid-May, and now it is more than April, and the palace people will probably feel that what blessings to pray for at this time, but there are things to be busy with at hand, even the crown princess is also busy.
The princesses like the Seventh Princess are very happy, after the celebration banquet, the princes will go to their respective fiefdoms, and when the most favored Princess Yuanjia is not around, is it not the attention of the father and the emperor that can be divided, so they are almost happy to see Lan Qiduo's departure, and even the fifth princess is secretly happy to see if she can let her father give an extra dowry. As for the six princesses, hehe, it is said that the six princesses have been embroidering dowries by hand, how can they participate in these? What is the truth of the facts, it is also like people who drink water and know themselves!
Lan Qiduo is really ready to pray for blessings, these strange things of the spirit gods would rather be believed in their existence or not, she inexplicably returned to the age of two itself is an unbelievable thing, people are their own personal experience will be enlightened, will have their own judgment, Lan Qiduo is no exception, she learned that the queen mother is worried about herself, so she prayed with the most sincere heart.
"Don't bring gorgeous clothes, don't defile the quiet place of Buddhism!"
Mama Yun was the female official next to the queen back then, except for Lan Qiduo, who was probably the most serious, she copied when she was fine in the past, such as "Dizang Sutra" and "Diamond Sutra" with two big boxes, Lan Qiduo was secretly ashamed, she didn't have Mama Yun in mind, and then she was even more sincere about going to Huguo Temple.
After all, there is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to follow, and there is no loss of royal majesty, and everyone who serves Lan Qiduo works together to dress Lan Qiduo elegantly and not shabbyly, and her beauty is not ostentatious, Tu Ping gritted his teeth and said: "Even if you go to Huguo Temple to pray for blessings, you can't let people underestimate Your Highness!" It goes without saying that this is addressed to whom.
Lan Qiduo was wearing a sky blue gauze skirt, the gauze skirt was exquisitely made, the cuffs and chest were decorated with delicate orchids, Lan is surname can only wear orchids on the royal family, the prince is a little funny, Lan Qiduo is also very helpless, thinking that anyway, this dress will be taken off when it arrives at Huguo Temple, and he will never have to wear it again.
The group of them had a full guard of honor, and naturally they didn't know that Xiahou Yi had been following behind him with pain and bumps, and Ding Sheng, who was waiting, couldn't bear it: "Why is the general like this, Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't know that you came to see her, and besides, the Huguo Temple is not far away, why don't the generals wait until the injury is healed and then go to see him!" ”
Xiahou Yi looked at the pedestrians in the distance, and said after a while: "You don't understand!" ”
Ding Sheng didn't know what he didn't know, he only knew that the general's wound was split again! Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a horse suddenly coming from behind, and the white-clothed boy on the horse looked at the princess's group in the Shili Pavilion like them. (To be continued.) )
PS: That's it for this volume! I'm going to grow up next, and I'm going to fight hard! I didn't dare to write anything.
