Chapter 44: The Old Reunion

King Wu hurriedly pressed the restless minister: "Okay, the widow knows that all Aiqing and Xiangguo are for the good of the widow." Lord Xiangguo is the father of the widow, and the widow should respect and love him. Although the widow now wants to show his skills, he really needs the ministers to assist the widow. ”

King Wu has said this, Wu Zixu is stupid if he doesn't understand it.

Wu Zixu thought about it, a few Yue women really can't become any climate, if there is any change, then get rid of it. Why compete with them here? And...... King Wu has indeed grown up, and if he doesn't give up power, the result is unpredictable.

Thinking of this, Wu Zixu's expression softened, and then he saluted King Wu and Bo Yao, and said: "Wu Mou is smart and confused for a while, such a simple truth has to let Lord Dazai carry the pressure of being blamed to mention some old ministers, it is really ridiculous and generous." Your Majesty, this matter is indeed too trivial for the old minister, and everything is up to your orders. Dazai-sama, thank you for your kind words today. ”

Bo Yao hurriedly and humbly returned: "Don't dare, don't dare, everyone is thinking about the king, fortunately, Lord Xiangguo has not blamed, otherwise, the king will definitely not be able to spare Bo Yao." Haha......"

The originally tense atmosphere in the main hall was instantly amused by Bo Yao's ridicule.

Xi Shi watched a good show and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. First, Wu Zixu is alert and aware of current affairs, he can keenly perceive danger, and he can bow his head and obey when Qianfu points out; The second is Bo Yao's emotional intelligence and eloquence, he can carefully figure out King Wu's intentions, and he can also say things without leakage and ease, so that no one blames him, and by the way, he is a good person, so that King Wu looks down on him; The third is that King Wu conveyed the news that he was going to take power to everyone without much effort, and he could take care of everyone's face. This Wu Palace and King Wu are extremely unfathomable.

Xi Shi remembered what he said when he was about to be taken away by the guards just now:

"Xie Wu Xiangguo's grace not to kill. Sure enough, you are a great and good person like King Wu, no wonder your prestige can even be heard by a country woman like Xi Shi. To be able to meet the virtuous ministers of Kuang Shi today is really a good time to come to Wu State. ”

Xi Shi's original intention was to advance by retreating and arousing King Wu's heart, but he didn't expect that King Wu had been waiting here for a long time, and he wanted to use Wu Zixu's "majesty" to highlight his "incompetence" and arouse the complaints of the ministers. Now that Xi Shi has "praised" Wu Zixu's "majesty", he sent one person to stand up and risk the disapproval to "break" King Wu's "incompetence". Bo Yao, who had already received the favor of King Goujian of Yue, stood up at this moment, and everything seemed so natural.

In the seemingly unintentional intervention of Bo Yao, everything moved forward towards the plan in the hearts of Xi Shi and King Wu......

When everyone was happy, Su Yi beside Xi Shi said coquettishly: "No wonder King Yue said that the king is kind-hearted, it turns out that the king's courtiers are so humble and friendly, how can there be no Ming Jun in charge~"

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and praised Su Yi for being sweet and sensible.

As soon as King Wu was happy, he said: "Then tonight, the 'Ming Jun' of the widow will have a dinner party with all the virtuous ministers and the three beauties to welcome your arrival." ”

The Yue Nu and the ministers hurriedly knelt down to thank them.

King Wu said: "The three beauties have won the hearts of widows. What is the name of each of the beauties? The widow may give you a place to live. ”

Su Yi was the first to return: "The name of the folk girl is Su Yi." ”

Xi Shi and Zheng Dan then returned: "Minnu Xi Shi, Minnu Zheng Dan." ”

King Wu nodded, pointed at Su Yi and said, "Miss Su Yi is beautiful and moving, she is named Liji, and she is given the Shaohua Palace; Miss Xi Shi is empathetic and gives her a place in the palace of grace; Miss Zheng Dan is frank and lively, and she lives in the Fuhuan Palace. ”

The three Yue girls were all happy, especially Su Yi, who was even more rare to be directly sealed. The three of them bowed to their husbands before they were willing to retreat.

After being taken by the servants to their respective dormitories, the Shih Tzu moved in with their respective guards to familiarize themselves with the environment.

As soon as Xi Shi entered, a group of people surrounded her and greeted her and Lingniang.

Xi Shi smiled at them kindly, and then tacitly was helped into the temple by Lingniang.

As soon as they sat down, the people who had been surrounding them knelt respectfully on the ground, kneeling in two rows.

A lively and smiling woman in the first row bowed to Xi Shi and introduced: "Welcome Xi Shi Niangniang back to the palace, the slave maid's name is Ah Yue, and she is a personal maid sent to you." Before, he served the king's daily life. The king felt that the slave and maid could speak well, so he wanted to assign the slave and maid to a gentle and kind master, saying that the slave and maid should follow and change their temperament. Now when I see my master, I am really as gentle as water and beautiful as a flower! ”

Ah Yue's sharp teeth are very pleasing to everyone. Xi Shi saw that her eyes were pure, not like a person who hid his scheming, so he relaxed his mind and said to her: "Since you are a person who can serve by the king's side, it must be good, and then the master will see that you have hidden those good skills in the future." ”

Ah Yue immediately returned: "Yes! ”

Immediately afterwards, a shrewd-looking eunuch next to Ah Yue bowed to Xi Shi and said, "Slave Xuanxin, meet the master." The minions are responsible for the safe travel of their masters. ”

After Xuan Xin briefly introduced himself, he didn't say more, and Xi Shi nodded to him with a faint smile.

In addition to the two of them, there is a man and a woman behind them, who are responsible for Xi Shi's life chores.

After all the introductions, Xi Shi was about to give a lecture, and Ah Yue said to her: "Master, there is still a slave who has not returned, and I don't know what to do, do you need the slave to find him back?" ”

The new master moved in, and there were still servants who didn't come to greet him but wandered outside, Lingniang couldn't look past it, and said, "Since he doesn't take the master in his eyes, why should the master look down on him." Master, it's better to ......"

Xi Shi shook his head and said, "Xu is delayed for something, so there is no need to be harsh." Wait until he comes back and let him see me again. ”

Then the slaves listened to the training with peace of mind.

Xi Shi did a good job and said softly: "Go to what you see, this master has a gentle temperament and doesn't like to be noisy. However, if you can perform your duties well and have no other minds, the master will treat him well. If there are other thoughts that should not be born during the period, then the Cheng'en Hall will always be missing such a person as you. Oh, in this world, there will be no such person as you. Do you understand? ”

Xi Shi said vicious words in a gentle voice, but it made people feel a little creepy. The minions originally thought that Xi Shi was a good master, but they didn't expect that he was indeed a person who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

The four of them hurriedly replied: "Yes." ”

Xi Shi nodded with satisfaction and said to Ling Niang: "Ling Niang, you take them down to give a lecture, and I will do all I have to say." After the training, find someone to take you to meet Sister Muli, I heard that she has been named a lady. When I saw Sister Mu Li, I said that we miss her very much and hope to see her at the dinner. ”

After that, Xi Shi sat down, went to the inner hall again, and just walked a few steps, he suddenly remembered something, so he turned to Ah Yue and said, "That's right, Ah Yue." The minion who didn't have time to come back asked him to come in and see me when he returned. ”

Then, Xi Shi said to Xuan Xin: "I went to Sister Zheng Dan in the afternoon, and I heard that she seems to live in the Fuhuan Palace. You'll arrange it later. ”

Ah Yue and Xuan Xin hurriedly responded "yes".

After entering the inner hall, Xi Shi lay on the bed tiredly, listening to the voice of Lingniang teaching outside, his head gradually became heavy, and he fell asleep after a while.

The summer of Wu seems to be more refreshing than the summer of Yue, and this sleep is very comfortable.

After Xi Shi had enough rest, she stretched lazily and "hummed" in her mouth, looking particularly delicate.

Xi Shi slowly opened his eyes, rubbed his eyes with a powder fist, and sat up. After rubbing his eyes, Yu Guang finally saw a man in black standing two steps next to the bed.

Xi Shi was shocked into a cold sweat, and after seeing who it was, he froze directly in place.

Yin, Brother Yin?!

Xi Shi had long thought that Yin Thirteen was dead, but he didn't expect to see him in his bedroom.

The joy of the reunion and the memories of the past melted into Xi Shi's heart, and while she had mixed feelings, she forgot to think about why Yin Shisan appeared here.

But Yin Shisan seemed to have known that Xi Shi had woken up, so he knelt down directly and saluted her.

Xi Shi finally came to his senses from his stunned state, and stumbled and said, "Yin, Brother Yin, why are you here?" Can you see you? Can you hear me? ”

Yin 13 didn't move, but still maintained a kneeling posture.

Xi Shi hurriedly got out of bed and wanted to help Yin Thirteen. But as soon as Xi Shi approached, Yin Shisan straightened up and almost hit Xi Shi's chin.

Xi Shi pressed his beating heart, took Yin Shisan's hand, and wrote: Brother Yin, I am Xi Shi.

Yin 13 nodded, indicating that he knew.

Xi Shi took Yin Shisan's hand again, wanting to ask the countless questions that poured out of his mind.

How are you doing?

Can you hear me? Can you see that? Still can't speak?

How did you end up here?

Who saved you?

……

The questions that Xi Shi wanted to ask poured out of her mind like a river, but there were so many questions that she didn't know which one to ask first.

As if he knew Xi Shi's thoughts, Yin Shisan took her hand and began to slowly answer for her.

"King Wu rescued me, in exchange for the intelligence of the Yue Kingdom, I didn't say anything about the beauty plan, he treated me very well. Physical, not good. Martial arts recovered eighty percent. I, miss you so much. ”

After writing the last sentence, Xi Shi's hands had begun to tremble, and his heart was full of sadness and joy. The two emotions were mixed with each other, which made Xi Shi's heart panic.

After Yin Shisan finished writing, he held Xi Shi's hand tightly, as if he was afraid that he would never see her again.

After Xi Shi stabilized his mind, he gently patted Yin Shisan's hand and wrote: Do you know who harmed you?

This question made Yin Shisan's resentment welling up in her heart again, and she didn't have to think about it, it was Fan Li who did it, and she still asked herself like this......

But Yin 13 still shook his head and didn't say the name.

A person's figure flashed through Xi Shi's mind. A figure in white clothes fluttering, and a jade tree in the wind.

Could it really be him?

At the beginning, Fan Li hugged himself in the mass grave and expressed his heartfelt feelings, trying to express that he loved himself too much, so he would destroy the half-dead Yin Shisan.

At the beginning, because he admired Fan Li, and felt that there was no need to worry too much about people when they died, so he reconciled with Fan Li. Now it seems that she was really surrounded by the net that Fan Li weaved for her at that time.

Xi Shi, who felt guilty and blamed himself, gently hugged Yin Shisan. Yin Shisan's whole body stiffened instantly, leaving the unpleasantness just now.

Just as Xi Shi was about to get up and help Yin Shisan up, the sound of a broken vase interrupted Xi Shi's movements.

When Xi Shi heard the reputation, it turned out to be a little maid who walked in with a bottle of acacia flowers.

It was about to see Xi Shi and Yin Shisan hugging each other, and he was so scared that he couldn't even hold the vase steadily.

Xi Shi glanced at the maid lightly and said, "What do you see?" ”

The maid hurriedly knelt down and said tremblingly, "Slaves, slaves and maids see that the master is admonishing his subordinates. ”

Only then did Xi Shi stand up and walk in front of her, stretched out his hand to help her up, and said with a smile: "From now on, don't break into the master's room at will, understand?" ”

The maid replied obediently, "Yes." ”

Only then did Xi Shi turn around and help Yin Shisan up, and said while helping: "He has a poor background, the master felt distressed and hugged him, you don't have to think about those who don't have it." The master just thinks that some words will change the taste when they reach other people's ears, you know? ”

The maid said, "Yes." ”

Xi Shi was not afraid that she would go out and talk nonsense, after all, Yin Shisan was saved by King Wu, and he must have known about them, so he must have turned over the window for Yin Shisan on the road to Wu Palace that night.

Xi Shi led Yin 13 to the maid and said, "He is not in good health, you can't bully him." Take him down. ”

The maid hurriedly stretched out her hand to help Yin Thirteen. But as soon as Yin 13 was touched, he instantly shook off the woman's hand, and he left the house safely. The maid followed suit and withdrew.

It seems that the future days in Wu will be much more complicated than imagined.
