1315, named
- Mo Ye hesitated: "What are the words he left for Bai Tao?" ”
Yang Chen shook his head slightly: "I didn't leave anything specific for Bai Tao, but Bai Tao is half the head of the Song Mansion, and he didn't tell her everywhere, also because of her experience, she can preside over some things alone, right?" ”
Mo Ye paid attention to the word experience in Yang Chen's words, and she suddenly had a trace of strange emotions in her heart, and she didn't speak for a while.
Yang Chen watched Mo Ye's silence, thought for a while, and said, "When I came back to tell Bai Tao about these things just now, you weren't by her side, did you have something to delay, she was anxious Ruan Gongzi, and happened to forget to tell you?" ”
Mo Ye heard his speculation for the first time, and felt that it was reasonable, but as soon as she remembered that she had delayed herself just now, she quickly recalled the loss and recovery of the small bottle, and for the white peach, she almost withdrew her doubts, and suddenly returned, and became deeper.
"Brother Yang, I want to go to Ye Mansion." Mo Ye, who had been silent for a moment, suddenly spoke.
"Okay." Yang Chen agreed very neatly, but in an instant he hesitated again: "You have to wait for a while, I have to clean up before I can send you over." ”
It was only at this time that Mo Ye noticed with some hindsight that Yang Chen had just bathed. His heart moved, and Mo Ye suddenly waved his hand and said, "No, Brother Yang, I'll just go alone." The trip back just now is so tired that you can't be alone for me again, so trouble again. ”
"You're right." Yang Chen wanted to take advantage of the situation and agreed to Mo Ye's decision, but his attitude towards Mo Ye. Or it should be said that the degree of attention is obviously higher than that of the cowardly girl just now, this is not only because there have been several intersections between the two, but also because of the entrustment given to him by Wang Zhe when he left the Song Mansion.
So after Yang Chen verbally agreed with Mo Ye's words, he quickly added: "It's getting late, I think I still have to accompany you for a trip." If you don't drive, we can still walk there, but you don't have to worry about going alone. ”
When Mo Ye heard this, his heart warmed, and he didn't insist on anything. Nodding.
Yang Chen hurried back to his residence. As soon as he closed the door, he hurriedly took out the brocade bag from his sleeve, but fortunately he had a strong hand, and even if he only held it with one hand, he was able to squeeze out the water contained in the bag. Otherwise, the wet bag is hidden in the sleeve. Maybe you have to wet half of your sleeves with the dry clothes you just changed.
If so. In front of Mo Ye just now, he may not be able to hide.
Slightly relieved, Yang Chen no longer hesitated. took out the dagger that he had carried with him when he used to go around the wilderness, but in the past few days it was only hidden under the bed board, and skillfully picked up the seams of the brocade bag.
On the inside of the brocade bag, the stitching method is also very exquisite, Yang Chen couldn't help but sigh a little: the clothes worn by the poor people, the patches have to be sewn until the air leakage can not be repaired, but in the rich and noble family, it is just a purse, not only the materials are exquisite, the appearance is beautiful, even the materials and stitches in it are so fine, but I don't know what is the meaning of such a time-consuming delicacy?
If Yang Chen had known Wang Zhe's true identity, he might not have the same idea as he did just now.
Because in this world, there is a class of people who must be careful to judge everything about them with the eyes of ordinary people, and they are: the royal family.
It cannot be said that they are not human beings, but it is difficult to deny that when they reach the top, whether it is from the spiritual level or from the level of life, they will change beyond all ordinary people's concepts.
Just talking about the refinement of this life appearance embodied in them, in fact, it is difficult to judge whether their transformation of their appearance with such excellence is really just to satisfy personal enjoyment.
Some things look beautiful, but not all of them are suitable for you, and you may only become torture when you inflict them on yourself.
As a royal family, you can have a lot of things you are born with, but at the same time, from the day your identity is doomed, there are also many things that you can't choose.
For example, Wang Zhe, who was originally separated from his friends, was roughly separated by a year and a half, and they could see each other again. But when he left this time, he was not sure about the time of this goodbye, just because he was not sure how the things he had done on this trip would change in the future.
What he will face is not a task that ordinary people can accomplish and obligations that he will fulfill, but as a prince, he can only choose to meet it and not give up. However, he only has a flesh and blood body, and what urges him to go far and ascend is actually the spiritual soul that has been tempered repeatedly.
And the style of such people who are onlookers, if not linked to their identity, can make people feel strange everywhere.
Since the first meeting, Yang Chen has never stopped questioning and speculating about Wang Zhe's identity, and this emotion is about to rise to its peak when Wang Zhe handed him a brocade bag.
That morning, Wang Zhe should have also sensed Yang Chen's emotions, this matter should be put in the eyes of ordinary people, it is indeed too easy to be suspicious, he is just saying goodbye to a good friend, but he wants to make a gesture of guarding against thieves, and hand over something to a servant of his friend, saying that it is to defend himself.
Judging by the look on Wang Zhe's face when he took out this thing at that time, the contents of this brocade bag should be worth a lot of money......
But why didn't he just give it to his friend?
And if he felt that he had to hand over this thing to his friend's servant for safekeeping, why did he choose him, a living man who had only been in the Song Mansion for a few days?
When he was using the dagger to open the brocade bag and stitch it, Yang Chen suddenly had many thoughts in his mind about the bag that he had kept for a few days. This may be the result of a nervous psychology, because he has always obeyed Wang Zhe's instructions, and has never had the idea of trying to open the bag by himself like today.
At this moment, he felt as if he was about to reveal a great secret, and it seemed as if a trouble was about to befall him with the revelation of this secret.
Just as Yang Chen was in this momentary effort, the gesture of holding the brocade bag was slightly off, and he saw something slip out of the brocade bag with a smooth inner lining......
- Looks like a fish!
A "fish" cast in metal slipped out of the brocade bag and fell to the ground. But the sound of the crash is not very crisp.
That's because it's not made of iron.
Yang Chen hesitated to pick up the fish, only to see that its body was sharp, and if it weren't for the scaly tail on its body, it would look like an arrow.
It's just that the shape of the fish makes the arrow too small, holding it in the palm of the hand, and the length is not more than the width of the palm.
But if you look closely at something like this, it may be really valuable. The preciousness that Yang Chen could see was its texture, and the shape of the fish made the arrow measure in terms of color and weight. It seems to be made of cast gold.
Yang Chen casually turned this thing upside down. was thinking about it for no reason in his mind, when Mo Ye's voice suddenly came from outside the house, and listening to that tone, it was to urge him. He came to his senses.
hurriedly answered the people outside the house. I looked at the inside of the brocade bag again. He didn't find any paper objects, and Yang Chen felt a little at ease, and temporarily dispelled thinking about the fish. After tidying up the house a bit, I went out.
Based on Yang Chen's life experience, it is indeed difficult to see the true body of this fish-shaped arrow, not that he is shallow, but he can recognize this thing at a glance
What does it mean for a person to have a little contact with the imperial court in his life encounters.
At this time, if Ye Nuonuo saw this thing, she would definitely be surprised to exhale three words: "Golden Carp Order!" ”
Today's emperor has only two princes, and there are two fish-shaped arrows, both of which are messengers carried by the prince. The fish-shaped arrows owned by the second prince are cast in silver, which is called the "Silver Carp Order" in its true nature, and the "Golden Carp Order" held by the third prince is a gold-cast "Golden Carp Order".
The holders of these two types of arrows can freely enter and exit all the forbidden areas in Nanzhao, and the Forbidden Palace Ouchi is naturally included, and with this signal, even if people are still standing outside the Kyoto City Gate, they want to see His Majesty the Emperor who is working in the Imperial Palace's Imperial Study, and almost all the roads in the middle can be walked directly.
The golden fish-shaped arrow adds a privilege to the silver one, that is, it can use this signal to call on military power on its own.
Although the power to transfer troops given to the Signal Command was controlled in terms of numbers, with 10,000 soldiers at its peak, if these 10,000 people could travel freely in and around Kyoto with the basic power of this order, the glory and power of this privilege could be combined to a terrifying height.
This is the privilege that the emperor has left to his sons, so that they can enjoy the glory of imperial power and avoid being coerced by any powerful ministers, and if there is something to say, they can come directly to him.
Especially for his third son, the emperor did this, which was equivalent to leaving him a team of 10,000 people on call in the entire territory of Nanzhao.
But a few days ago, the third prince handed over such a letter of supreme privilege to a groom at his friend's house.
When the third prince Wang Zhe handed over the fish-shaped signal to Yang Chen, although he did not explain the details of the signal, the sentence he told was true.
In this way, although the signal will not disappear naturally as soon as it leaves the brocade bag, it can indeed only help Yang Chen once, and it can only be used when he is in a deep crisis to the point where his own strength can no longer save himself.
Otherwise, if in an ordinary time, let the people who know this thing find out that this kind of thing that only the royal family can have is actually in the hands of a commoner, I am afraid that he will not only not get any benefit from this thing, but will also cause endless trouble.
Originally, Wang Zhe was not sure whether Yang Chen would have the opportunity to use this thing in the future.
And Yang Chen himself has always adhered to the words entrusted by Wang Zhe, and the curiosity that rose in his heart at the beginning gradually faded in the continuation of the peaceful days.
But this far-fetched balance was still broken so quickly because of a small twist and turn.
However, fortunately for both parties, Yang Chen did not understand the role of the "Golden Carp Order", and for a time only regarded it as a precious object cast of pure gold, neither showing it outside nor discarding it.
It's just that I don't know if in the future, Yang Chen will misinterpret Wang Zhe's meaning because he discovered the gold-cast texture of this fish-shaped signal, and melt it to "solve problems" when he was shy in his pocket?
……
On the way to send Mo Ye to Ye Mansion, there was nothing to do, and Yang Chen told Mo Ye everything he knew about Ye Mansion.
However, since Yang Chen had come to Yefu before, he had not really entered the mansion from beginning to end, and his understanding of the Yefu incident was only limited to what he had heard from the outside world, although he had said everything he knew, he was still not very specific.
It wasn't until Mo Ye walked into the Ye Mansion in person that she was really a little surprised, and Yang Chen, who came in with her, could also feel it a little, and there seemed to be a wisp of funeral atmosphere floating up and down the Ye Mansion.
Most of the servants in the Ye Mansion still knew Mo Ye, the girl who was recuperating in the mansion a few days ago, as soon as Yang Chen Gang said that the two of them were from the Song Mansion, the family guarding the gate immediately welcomed the two to the living room of the mansion, and the hot tea was quickly served.
During non-major festivals, for the two idlers who came more casually, the basic hospitality of Yefu was still relatively thorough. Seeing this scene, Mo Ye also felt a little relieved, it seemed that although Ye Fu had suffered something, the situation had not deteriorated to the point of chaos in the overall situation.
However, she didn't know that the relatively stable situation she could still see now was not only because all the servants in the Ye Mansion were loyal to the head of the family, but also because Ruan Luo was in charge.
If Ruan Luo hadn't come forward to make a promise in front of everyone, as well as warm words of consolation, the servants who served them with tea in the living room now, as well as the servants in other positions in the mansion, would still be kneeling in the courtyard in front of Ye Zhengming's bedroom with six gods!
Mo Ye had no intention of drinking tea, although the person was still sitting firmly on the chair, his mind was about to fly outside the house.
And the servants of the Ye Mansion also had no intention of entertaining guests, and the two heads of the family fell ill, and no one came forward to receive the two idlers. However, the news of the arrival of the two guests soon spread to the two chief maids in the mansion.
The two maids knew that Mo Ye was coming, and they were each in good spirits. Although Mo Ye may not be able to help them much, when this Ye Mansion is in trouble, the arrival of familiar friends can always give them some encouragement and comfort mentally.
The key point is that the two main maids of the Ye Mansion know the friendship between Mo Ye and Miss Ye. They saw that their young lady had woken up a few times halfway after crying unconscious, she woke up and cried again, she didn't know how to comfort her, and she was anxious.
Xiaoya was still in the kitchen to greet the cooking of medicine. She alone was not only responsible for boiling two different medicinal soups of the old man and the young lady, but also in charge of the decoction of nearly twenty servants in the whole house to ward off the cold.
It seems that the division of labor she discussed with Xiaoyu before is very practical, and at this time, she can take care of the cooking medicine wholeheartedly, and other trivial and changeable matters will naturally be taken care of by Xiaoyu.
