Volume 3 Chaos in Chang'an Chapter 89 Evil Spirits
In the twentieth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, the third day of the second month.
The sky was slightly bright, and Pei Shengqin had already woken up from his sleep, which was the first morning he spent in Chang'an after his rebirth.
Since his rebirth, he has been shrouded in the shadow of war, either killing the enemy to negotiate, or marching outside, and his life is very irregular. It was rare to return to the capital, Pei Shengqin had made up his mind that he had to sleep lazily today, but unfortunately this small goal was not completed.
Pei Shengqin was woken up, and there was a clanging sound outside the courtyard, and no one could sleep. Pei's house is large enough to include a number of courtyards, each of which consists of several houses. Living in the same courtyard as Pei Shengqin are Bobo and Magu.
Magu was not in the house, and when she opened the door, she saw Magu standing in front of the door with a calm face, and she didn't know how long she had been standing, looking at the yard with a displeased face.
Magu's public identity is Pei Shengqin's concubine, and in order not to make people suspicious, she naturally lives in a room. Anyway, I used to squeeze a tent during the war, but now it's more spacious. Pei Shengqin's bed is big enough, and the two of them sleep sideways on the left and right at night, and there is a large gap in the middle.
"The surname is Pei, I think you should take care of that kid, wake up your aunt and grandmother early in the morning, what are you doing!" Magu's voice had a strong sense of getting up, it seemed that she was also going to sleep lazily today.
"Since you woke up first, why don't you tell him to be quiet."
"I don't know this kid well." Magu sneered: "Besides, since I have been woken up, why don't you wait for him to continue to wake you up?" β
"I was speechless......
Since she learned that Pei Shengqin had returned to Beijing last night, she ran to see Yang Shiyi as soon as possible, and Magu's attitude towards Pei Shengqin was very bad.
Pei Shengqin sighed and walked towards the middle of the courtyard. He naturally also saw that the culprit who disturbed people's dreams was Bo Bo.
Bo Bo practiced knives in the yard, and the hundreds of pounds of Daxia dragon sparrows danced vigorously in his hands. Every now and then, smashing on the ground is the source of the tinkling noise I just heard.
Bo Bo noticed someone standing in the door early on, but no one called him, so he ignored it. At this moment, seeing Pei Shengqin walking towards him, he also put away the knife and stood up straight and said Brother Shengshi.
Pei Shengqin touched his head, then took out a handkerchief to help him wipe his sweat, and threw it away after wiping it. Pei Shengqin carries a lot of white handkerchiefs with him, although this thing is very valuable now, Pei Shengqin still uses this thing as disposable toilet paper. After being reborn for so long, it is rare to have the opportunity to act as a rich second-generation loser, Pei Shengqin feels that it is unreasonable not to be kind to himself.
"Why do you get up so early to practice knives?"
"I want to practice martial arts, and in the future, I will go back to Saiwai to avenge my father!"
Listening to Bo Bo's firm words, Pei Shengqin was inexplicably sour, and felt a little guilty. Others don't know, but Pei Shengqin knows that although Liu Weichen also died heroically fighting against Tuoba in the original history, it should be many years later. It was only because Pei Shengqin was angry with Tuoba that he forced Tuoba Jue to plan in advance, and then Dugu Kuren also killed Liu Weichen in advance. Pei Shengqin's plan to solve Tuoba Jue in advance also failed, and Tuoba Jue, a traitorous minister, was thoughtful, and actually found a way to deal with it in a desperate situation, and also rebelled against the imperial army.
In a sense, it can even be said that Liu Weichen was killed by Pei Shengqin.
Pei Shengqin looked at Bo Bo with pity and said, "Don't be too strict with yourself, you still have me, and my father." As I said yesterday, we are your father and brother. If you need it, all the power of the Pei clan can be used for you in the future to help you avenge you! β
"Woo, thank you, brother!"
Bo Bo was so moved that he hugged Pei Shengqin's waist and cried, and Pei Shengqin didn't stop it. Since Liu Weichen's martyrdom, this child has been suppressed for too long, and it is necessary to release his emotions.
"The real strength does not lie in the strength of the body, but in the amount of power it can control, which is the principle of 'the wise are controlled by others, and the foolish are controlled by others'. You are still young, you shouldn't live in hatred all day long, usually go out and shop more when you have nothing to do, and it is better to enhance your experience and knowledge than to practice knives behind closed doors. β
Intellectually speaking, Pei Shengqin should instead encourage Bo Bo to practice his sword more diligently, Pei Shengqin knows better than anyone how terrifying Bo Bo will be after his martial arts are practiced. That would be one of Pei's most powerful forces in the future. However, from an emotional point of view, Pei Shengqin has pity for Bo Bo and is even more guilty, hoping that this child can have a better childhood, instead of living in hatred all day long, accompanied by a cold blade.
Bo Bo raised his head pitifully, looked at Pei Shengqin and said, "After my father died, you and Uncle Pei were the best people for me!" β
Magu muttered a few words in Pei Shengqin's ear, and Pei Shengqin briefly told him a lively story. Magu was suddenly full of pity for Bobo's life, and she also reached out and gently rubbed Bobo's head, not caring about Bobo's waking her up.
Bo Bo glanced at Magu and said, "Brother Shi, sister-in-law is so beautiful." β
Magu said angrily: "Little brat, I can't be considered your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law is in Yang's mansion." β
Pei Shengqin looked up at the sky, pretending not to hear Magu's words, and always felt that there was a smell of vinegar in the air.
"Bobo, Magu, you clean up and go out with me."
"Good!"
Bo Bo obediently went to change his clothes, but Magu stood still and glanced at Pei Shengqin: "What are you doing out, looking for your fiancΓ©e again?" β
This woman, is she still addicted to flying vinegar? Pei Shengqin slapped Magu's ass casually: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and clean up!" β
"You!" Magu's cheeks turned red, she glared at Pei Shengqin fiercely, and then honestly went back to the room to change her clothes. Since the first battle of Xiangben, although the relationship between the two sides has not yet been clarified, Magu has no longer been able to harden in front of Pei Shengqin, and the poison that originally had to be pricked once every seven days was not put on Pei Shengqin's body. This is very good, Pei Shengqin has already made up his mind, for the sake of the harmony and stability of the Great Qin Dynasty, he will accept this demon girl aggrieved and aggrieved, and strive to transform her into a good Magu who is loyal to the monarch and patriotic.
Pei Shengqin is wearing a plain white brocade dress today, and Bo Bo is also the same style as him. Magu was originally still wearing a black suit, Pei Shengqin was not satisfied, so he had to call her to change into a white dress.
"Don't you feel depressed when you dress so plainly, this is not your style of dressing." The three of them are all plain white, with their own fairy spirit, walking in the bustling Chang'an City, there is a feeling of standing out from the crowd.
"I should have been more depressed today." Pei Shengqin responded casually, not knowing what he was thinking, and his mood was a little depressed.
"The surname is Pei, the jewelry over there is beautiful, I want to take a look."
"Brother Shi, that vendor is shouting sugar gourd, what is that. I've never seen it in Moxi, it looks so delicious! β
"Not now, I'll see when I go back, when you want, you can buy enough, it's not bad money!" Pei Shengqin appeased the two followers with a single sentence.
Bypassing the bustling downtown area, Pei Shengqin inquired all the way, and finally came to the outside of a mansion.
This place is called Doufu.
Knocking on the door, Pei Shengqin arched his hand towards the gatehouse and said, "Please report to the master, the right general Pei Shengqin is visiting." β
The porter replied and turned to go. Magu asked suspiciously, "Who is the master here, and what are we doing here?" β
Pei Shengqin sighed faintly and was silent.
After a while, I heard the voice of a group of warblers and swallows.
"It's a general who is visiting, it's called Pei Shengqin, hey, this name is so familiar."
"Ah, Pei Shengqin, isn't this our heroic young man who turned the tide, I heard that they are all marquis."
"I don't know when this General Pei came to our house, could it be related to the master?"
"Hey, the lord guards the land for the country, most of them miss his wife, and ask this General Pei to report his safety."
"Most likely, Xuzhou has been fighting for so long, the lord must know that Mrs. is in a hurry, so he specially reported safety."
The footsteps approached, and a young woman came to the door, accompanied by a group of chattering maids.
Rao is Pei Shengqin is used to seeing beauties, but she is still amazed by this young woman, she is wearing a light green spring shirt, a woman's hairstyle, and a silver hairpin is inserted on her head at random. The facial features are only exquisite, not beautiful, but when combined, they give people a sense of naturalness. The eyes, in particular, were bright and clear, like two gems.
The young woman is a knowledgeable person, she bowed and said, "I don't know if Pei Hou is coming, and I will miss the welcome." The concubine is Dou Su's family, Pei Hou is here, but there is news of my husband? β
Pei Shengqin didn't speak, he looked at the young woman in front of him with complicated eyes. This is Su Hui, a strange woman who left a picture of Xuanji to later generations, and in later generations has titles such as "the master of palindromic poetry, the first of the three talented women of Wei and Jin, the first talented woman of the former Qin, and the first talented woman of China". Xie Daoyun, who was in the same era, also looked overshadowed in front of Su Hui, and even Wu Zetian, a generation of empress Wu Zetian hundreds of years later, had personally passed on to her.
What matches her talent is her bumpy love. and Lu Zhiling's marriage to Dou Tao was a match made in heaven. However, the good times did not last long, first Dou Tao was involved in an unjust case, and was sent to the border of Shazhou by Emperor Qin, and the couple could not see each other thousands of miles apart. Later, Dou Tao was reactivated by the Qin Emperor and participated in the battle of Xiangyang in the fifteenth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, and returned to the dynasty in triumph. Su Hui thought that the husband and wife could stay together, but at this time, Dou Tao empathized and fell in love with a singer. Su Hui took great pains to weave all her love for her husband into a picture and gave it to her husband. Dou Tao looked at Xuanjitu, and finally woke up, sent the singer away, and reconciled with Su Hui.
The story ends here, history books are not romance novels, and they will not specifically record the emotional life of young couples. Later generations can only speculate and speculate according to their subjective wishes, and guess that Su Hui and Dou Tao will probably live happily for a lifetime, right?
It wasn't until he traveled to this era and experienced the war in the southeast that Pei Shengqin knew that the ending of this story was not as good as later generations had predicted. The real outcome was that shortly after the Battle of Xiangyang, Dou Tao was transferred to Zhu Qi's guard and stayed in this post. Until after the battle of Weishui, I wish the city to be broken and Dou Tao to die in battle!
After waiting for a long time, Su Hui didn't see Pei Shengqin speak, and suddenly raised her head. Noticing that Pei Shengqin and the three of them were dressed in plain white clothes, this smart woman's eyes suddenly showed a panicked look. She immediately repeated the previous question.
"Pei Hou is here, but there is news of the concubine's husband?"
Pei Shengqin sighed, then took out a blood-stained brocade handkerchief from his arms and slowly handed it to the poor woman.
"Jin General Liu Yupo wished him, General Annan was exhausted, refused to surrender, and was martyred."
"I didn't hear you clearly." Su Hui trembled and turned out to be Jinpa, and recognized that this was the Xuanji diagram she had knitted with a needle and a thread, and tears couldn't help but burst out of her eyes.
Pei Shengqin said softly: "The general died in a hundred battles, the strong man returned in ten years, and General Annan died in the country, and he was a hero of the country." I hope that the general's wife will mourn. β
Magu looked at Pei Shengqin, and finally understood why Pei Shengqin asked for Su Bai today, it turned out that he was here to report the funeral! When she was in Xuzhou, Magu followed Pei Shengqin all the way, and naturally remembered the general who died in Zhuqi, when Pei Shengqin also erected a tomb for that Dou Tao. It's just that Magu doesn't quite understand why Pei Shengqin is so concerned about that general Dou Tao when there were so many people with lofty ideals who died in the first battle of Weishui?
Indeed, in the first battle of Weishui, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were defeated and sunk in the sand. If you really want to talk about it, there are too many martyrs who have been martyred, and Dou Tao is actually not ranked. If it weren't for the love story of Su Hui and Dou Tao that has been passed down through the ages, Pei Shengqin would not have come to mourn Dou Tao in person. It's unfair to say, it's not unreasonable for so many people in later generations to go crazy and want to be famous. People will always care more about famous people, this has been the case since ancient times, and Pei Shengqin is not exempt from vulgarity.
If you really want to talk about it, this is probably a kind of later feelings, or it can be said to be a tribute to Su Hui, a talented woman. Magu is not a traverser, so naturally she will not understand.
Su Hui sat on the threshold and was already crying bitterly. The maids on the side were also at a loss, thinking that they could receive the news of Dou Tao's safety, but they didn't expect to wait for Dou Tao's death. Pei Shengqin just looked at her with pity, allowing her to vent her emotions.
"I want to know you and live a long life. The mountains have no tombs, the rivers are exhausted, the winter thunder and earthquakes, the summer rain and snow, the heaven and the earth are combined, and they dare to be with the king...... Dou Lang, you and I said that you want to stay together for the rest of your life, why did you leave me? β
Su Hui burst into tears, opened her lips and whispered, it was actually a song "Evil".
