Chapter 168: Know the current affairs, know the advance and retreat
Lu Yan snickered in his heart.
What Uncle Jingbei Wang said is really like that.
Thinking about it carefully, what Uncle Jingbei said to him seemed to have been told to him by his imperial grandmother Empress Dowager Bai many years ago.
A trace of self-reproach flashed in Lu Yan's eyes. At that time, I still complained that I was too young and didn't listen to the persuasion of the Empress Dowager Bai.
After thinking about it, he sincerely told the prince of Jingbei: "Uncle Jingbei, you can rest assured." I'm going to listen to you and try to make myself better. If you want to share your father's worries, you have to do something. ”
"Okay." The prince of Jingbei said reassuringly.
Lu Yan was carried by the prince of Jingbei and came to the wooden house where the emperor lived. After Jingbei Wang Ye fed him pills, he lay down on the bed I to rest.
The prince of Jingbei took the medicinal wine, smeared it on Lu Yan, and the bruised part that was kicked by the emperor told the emperor: "The younger brother doesn't know why the imperial brother wants to beat and scold Yan'er, but the younger brother can guess that the imperial brother is very resentful of Gan Yan'er's return to Jingbei County since he left the battlefield in Northern Xinjiang. For this matter, the younger brother begged the imperial brother to give the younger brother a little time, so that the younger brother could explain. ”
"Exactly." The emperor sat on the Taishi chair next to the wooden table and watched the prince of Jingbei smear the medicinal wine on Lu Yan. Soon remembered that when she was young, because she put paper kites, she accidentally fell and injured her leg, and he applied medicinal wine to Ling'er.
He was worried that the imperial doctor would hurt Ling'er by smearing her wounds, so he personally took the medicine and wine and applied it to Ling'er. To Yan'er in front of him, he seemed to ...... Didn't care much about him.
The emperor saw that the prince of Jingbei was very skilled in smearing the medicinal wine for Lu Yan, and after putting down the porcelain bottle containing the medicinal wine, he reached out and gently rubbed Yan'er's shoulder.
Looking at it like that, it seems that the prince of Jingbei cares more about Yan'er than he, who is the emperor.
In fact, he beat Yan'er's rebel, but he couldn't see Yan'er contradicting him, so he deliberately angered him. I want the rebel to know:
Although you have grown up and your wings are stiffer, you can fly farther.
But as long as I am alive, not to mention that you are not yet an adult, even if you are an adult, you are still my son and my courtier. If you dare to rebel against me, you are looking for a fight.
It's light to beat you, but if it was a few years ago, as soon as my temper came up, I was afraid that I would lock you up for ten or eight years. When you know that you have repented, you will willingly confess the box. I think about it again, whether to let you go out and go to a remote place to experience experience.
Prince Jingbei pinched Lu Yan's shoulder for a while, looked at the emperor with a smile, and found that there was still some anger in the emperor's eyes. I know that this is the royal brother is still angry with Yan'er. He explained to the emperor the reason why the Ten Princes would return to the Imperial City.
"Brother Huang, Yan'er is going back to the imperial city, and the younger brother has long known about it. To be exact, it was more than a month ago that the younger brother knew about it. ”
The prince of Jingbei said, took out a few small notes from his purse, and showed them to the emperor.
These notes were all sent by the younger brother to Hongyan, written by the younger brother to Huan'er, and Yan'er replied to the younger brother. Although the words on the note are very brief, the imperial brother must have understood it. ”
The emperor opened one of the notes and saw five words written on it:
[Taken by him].
But with just a few words, what can he understand? The emperor thought in his heart that the prince of Jingbei would really talk nonsense with his eyes open.
The Emperor opened another note and saw that the handwriting on this note had become much more than the first. Although the handwriting is very clear, it is a little small.
[This year, it's your cousins who go and burn the paper money for your mother.]
Because your aunt is pregnant, when you come back, you may be able to see your little cousin, or your little cousin.
Several of your cousins miss you so much that they often ask me, when will the tenth cousin return? They said they were waiting for you to come back, and when you came back, they could go hunting with you. 】
The emperor saw the handwriting on the note, which was "your mother", not "your mother", and admired the carefulness of the prince of Jingbei from the bottom of his heart.
The letter mentioned that the five children of Jingbei Wang Ye liked their cousin, Yan JL
The emperor didn't expect that Yan'er was such a cold-hearted person, and on weekdays in the palace, there were few of Yan'er's brothers and sisters who were not afraid of Yan'er.
Few people dared to approach Yan JL
But the five children of the prince of Jingbei would think that they would wait until Yan'er came back so that they could take them to hunt together. The ideas of their children are really a little different from the ideas of other people.
The emperor thought so in his heart.
The prince of Jingbei saw that the emperor didn't read the note anymore, and proposed: "Brother Huang, why don't you take a look at the other notes?" ”
It looks like it's not just a few words. The emperor only thought about it in his heart, but he didn't say it to the prince of Jingbei. Thinking that Lu Yan was still lying on the bed I, and the prince of Jingbei was quite concerned about Lu Yan. So he stood up and said, "Okay, it's getting late, the imperial brother and Yan'er will rest here, and I can accompany Yan JU to rest in the carriage." ”
When Lu Yan, who was lying on the bed, heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Why go to rest in the carriage?
If his father wants to rest in the carriage, will he come to Uncle Jingbei and live in Uncle Jingbei's wooden house? It is clear that he wants to go to the second prince to rest, and by the way, he cares about it, and his father thinks that the second prince who is very accomplished goes.
Lu Yan knelt in front of the emperor, sincerely admitted the box, and apologized.
The wounds on his body were all due to his father, the emperor, who made him hurt like this. But no matter how painful the wounds on his body were, his father would not care much about him.
The second prince was self-righteous and wishful thinking that Jiaojiao came to Jingbei County with him to treat the patients because he liked him.
Thinking that he had robbed him of his Jiaojiao, the second prince deliberately forbears in front of their father, so that his father knows that he is hurt in his heart.
His injury, in the heart of his father, was not worth mentioning at all. However, the injury in the heart of the second prince will make his father feel heartache and will not be relieved of him.
In the eyes of his father, he was just a dispensable waste. In the hearts of his father, he was always not as good as his second brother.
Lu Yan secretly swore in his heart: One day, I will let you know that everything I have paid will not be in vain!
The prince of Jingbei saw that the emperor was silent, and knew that Lu Yan was injured, and he must be uncomfortable. I felt heartache for Yan'er, and stepped forward to intercede for Yan'er.
The emperor saw that the prince of Jingbei was also coming, so he had to raise his hand slightly and signal Lu Yan to get up. Seeing that Lu Yan stood up with the support of the prince of Jingbei, the emperor walked out of the wooden house.
The prince of Jingbei quietly gave Xiao Yan a look, meaning to let him go back to the cowhide tent to rest. Leave the rest to him.
Lu Yan glanced at the prince of Jingbei gratefully, and also walked out of the wooden house and went back to the cowhide tent where he was staying.
This night, Lu Yan had insomnia because of his injuries, hiding things in his heart.
Meanwhile.
Bai Jiaojiao was lying on the bed, with an ice blue robe resting beside her, and there was a faint fragrance on her clothes, the same as the fragrance of the antidote pills that Lu Yan had taken.
This was found under her thin quilt when she returned to the Great Hideen Tent to rest.
It should have been Lu Yan who came here before, and while taking away the dirty clothes in the wooden basin, he left his new clothes here.
In order not to let people find out about this dress, Bai Jiaojiao also put it beside her after lying on the bed I. It's good to wait until tomorrow Tianke, and find an opportunity to send Lu Yan back. She is a woman's family, even if she occasionally wears men's clothes to go out to run errands, she doesn't need to wear Lu Yan's new clothes.
When Bai Jiaojiao returned from the river, she found that the female soldiers who were waiting outside her cowhide tent were no longer here. The two women standing outside the cowhide tent were the other two female spies beside Lu Ting.
When she was in Zhou Shiling's house before, she had seen the two female spies in front of her, and even though she rarely talked to them, she still had a little impression of them.
When Bai Jiaojiao looked at the two female soldiers, the two female soldiers saluted Bai Jiaojiao in unison, and the female soldier standing on the left said: "Bai girl, tonight, we will take care of you and be responsible for your safety." What do you have to do, just ask. ”
Hearing this, Bai Jiaojiao couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Where did she dare to command them? As long as they stand outside this cowhide tent and don't be demons, they are already good.
Bai Jiaojiao held back the unhappiness in her heart and replied, "I'm here, it's safe." ”
When he had said this, and no matter what the two women had answered, he lifted the curtain and went into the cowhide tent. With the light from the lantern, he poured some hot water into a wooden basin and brought it to the compartment to wash.
Then lie down on bed I to rest.
Bai Jiaojiao was lying on the bed, and every once in a while, she could hear the slight footsteps coming from outside the cowhide tent.
It is not difficult to guess that there must be some soldiers patrolling outside the cowhide tent. It seems that someone is suspecting that she may run to see the Ten Princes in the middle of the night?
Thinking of this, Bai Jiaojiao's eyes couldn't help but flash a hint of sarcasm. She had already said it, and even said in front of the two princes, Lu Yan and Lu Di, that she was not Lu Di's future princess.
She didn't want to explain this question anymore. It's boring, and there's no need to explain it anymore.
But when she came back, she saw that the female soldiers who were waiting outside the cowhide tent had been replaced by someone else. At that time, she did feel uncomfortable in her heart.
She had come to heal the patients, and the man had sent someone to protect her, and there was no box. But that person was too careful in doing this, as if he didn't trust her very much.
Not only did two female soldiers come over, but several more soldiers were also arranged to come over for patrol. It's late at night, can she still get out of the cowhide tent and talk to someone?
Bai Jiaojiao forcibly held back the unhappiness in her heart and told herself to rest earlier.
Tomorrow morning, I have to visit the Sun family to know how the Sun family is recovering after giving birth. I also want to see the little nephew she recognizes, and hug that cute child.
After thinking about Sun's child, Bai Jiaojiao fell asleep after a while.
After falling asleep, Bai Jiaojiao had a dream.
In a dream.
Bai Jiaojiao waited outside the cowhide tent where Lu Yan stayed, and her sharp eyes searched around, so she could find her clothes earlier. But she didn't think about it, she searched outside the cowhide tent for a while, but she couldn't find her clothes.
In desperation, she decided to ask Lu Yan outside the cowhide tent and tell him about returning the clothes to her.
Bai Jiaojiao walked outside the cowhide tent and was about to ask questions, when a soldier in armor stopped her with a sword and shouted coldly: "You are not allowed to enter." ”
"I'm here to find His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince......" Bai Jiaojiao pleaded.
The soldier looked up at the sky to remind Bai Jiaojiao: If you dare to take another step, don't blame me for being ruthless.
Bai Jiaojiao quickly remembered that the man holding the sword was a certain general of the forbidden army. Seeing this formation, I had already guessed in my heart who the person in the cowhide tent would be.
Except for the emperor, there will be no second person who will let this forbidden army general come and watch for him.
Even if the prince of Jingbei and the prince of Jingnan, as well as His Royal Highness the Second Prince, come over, they will not enjoy such treatment.
