Chapter 27: Fan Li's reminiscences of the Yue Girl's art
Looking at Fan Li again, when he saw that Xi Shi was injured, he hurriedly hugged Xi Shi's body: "Yiguang, what's wrong with you?" The voice was anxious, and he was at a loss.
Ji Ran saw that Xi Shi was injured, and saw Fan Li's expression towards Xi Shi at the moment, knowing that Fan Li was really in love with this woman, he couldn't help but feel a burst of remorse in his heart, if it wasn't for the seven killings he made, how could he have caused such human pathos. stepped forward, patted Fan Li's shoulder gently, squatted down and grabbed Xi Shi's hand, his index finger buckled the pulse, and after a while, he looked up and said to Fan Li: "Young uncle, don't be sad, she was hurt by Ah Qing's sword qi just now, plus she already has heartache, so that's why it's like this, wait for me to prescribe a few pairs of decoction, drink it, and it will be fine to recuperate for a while." ”
Hearing the teacher say this, Fan Li's heart settled down, hugged Xi Shi and whimpered: "It's all my fault, if I don't look for you, you won't have this incident, why should I go to find you!" ”
"Fan Lang, don't be sad, it is also my fate to meet you, and it is enough to get your true love." Xi Shi comforted Fan Li, raised his hand and gently wiped away Fan Li's tears.
"Young uncle, don't be sad first, maybe it will be a good thing for Yiguang to be injured this time, you go with me to see King Yue, just say that Yiguang is too hard to practice the piano, and he has heart disease, which leads to heart attack, I am afraid that I can't complete this task, let him send another candidate!"
When Fan Li heard this, his eyes lit up, yes, why didn't I expect it, but fortunately the teacher reminded him. So he asked Ah Qing to take care of Xi Shi and go with the teacher to see the king of Nayue. The king of Yue actually knew about Fan Li and Xi Shi's relationship for a long time, but he never broke it. At this time, I heard Fan Li talk about Xi Shi's heart attack, squinted his eyes and said to Fan Li with a smile: "Young uncle, I know that you have a good impression of Xi Shi, but you can't miss the revival event because of personal feelings!" ”
When Fan Li heard this, he was secretly shocked in his heart, knowing that he had already told King Yue what he had done recently, so he quickly replied: "King, this is not a lie, Shicaichen passed by the palace of Xi Shi, and saw that the palace door was opened, and there were voices coming from inside, so he went in to see, but Xi Shi fell to the ground, and there were blood stains flowing out of the corners of his mouth. ”
Ji Ran also stepped forward and replied: "King, it is true, the minister happened to find someone who could train soldiers, took him past the palace, heard the beautiful sound of the piano and stopped to listen, suddenly the sound of the piano broke, so he went in to see it, but found that the woman fell to the ground. ”
When King Yue heard this, he stood up and paced left and right, stroked his beard: "If this is the case, it will be very bad, and it will not affect the revival plan of the lonely king. ”
It didn't take long, and the imperial doctor returned, as Fan Li and Ji Ran said. King Yue stopped and looked at the ministers: "Tell me, how is this good?" Come up with an idea to discuss! ”
At this time, Nawen Chong stepped forward and asked the imperial doctor: "If this disease is cured, how long will it take to be cured?" ”
The imperial doctor pondered for a moment and said, "Heart disease is very difficult to modulate, and the lower officials judge that it needs to be carefully modulated, or three years can be good." ”
"The king, according to what the minister sees, the beauty given to the king of Wu must not be a sick body, otherwise it will not only not play a role but will cause the anger of the king of Wu, and this Xi Shi is the best person to undertake this task, if you change someone else, it may be difficult to be competent, so the minister suggested waiting for three years, and I also need to accumulate time for the treasury to strengthen the army and enrich the people."
As soon as these words came out, Fan Li wailed in his heart, Wenzhong, Wenzhong, don't you know the bitterness in my heart, why don't you take this great opportunity to help me?
The king of Yue pondered for a while, and felt that what Wen Chong said made sense: "Okay, just do what Dr. Wen said, this Xi Shi is recuperating in the body, and we must also hurry up to strengthen the army and enrich the country." Doctor Xin, where is the person you are looking for to train the soldiers, bring it to the Lone King! ”
"She's in Shih Tzu at the moment, so I'll let her come over."
It didn't take long, and Ji Ran led Ah Qing in to see King Yue. It's a woman again, how can these two people go out to find a woman, Fan Li is just looking for a beauty, this plan is to find a woman who is looking for a person who is training soldiers, is it a trick to play the lonely king. The more King Yue thought about it, the more angry he sank his face, and asked, "This is the person you found to train soldiers?" What's the point? ”
Ji Ran knew that the king of Nayue would be like this when he saw Ah Qing, and he already had a plan in his heart, so he stepped forward and replied: "It's better to show the king now than to the king." Ask the king to find some of the best among the generals and try it with Ah Qing. ”
"Go and gather the Lone King's guards." After that, he walked out of the palace first and came to the outside of the palace.
After a short time, the guards of the king of Yue gathered outside the palace: "Say, how to try the method?" ”
Ji Ran motioned to Ah Qing, Ah Qing stepped forward and said in a coquettish voice: "Back to the king, you can choose ten of them to fight against the concubine." ”
"You mean you fought against ten of the Lone King's guards?" King Yue felt that he had misheard, and asked again with confirmation.
"Yes, King."
The king of Yue looked at the ministers on both sides: "The lonely king heard it right, such a delicate little girl has to fight against ten guards, and the guards dare not say that they are the best, but they can also be equal to two or three ordinary soldiers, are you sure it's not a joke?" ”
Ji Ran stepped forward: "King, since Ah Qing said so, he must be sure, you might as well give it a try." ”
"Go, take some bamboo, make it the size of a sword, wrap it in cloth, and dip it in some flour, be careful not to hurt Miss Aqing."
A group of guards grinned and took the bamboo sword and wrapped it according to the instructions of King Yue, not taking this competition seriously at all.
"We're all ready, what kind of competition are we going to do, Miss A-Qing?" A leading guard asked.
"Attack me!"
The guards regarded Ah Qing as an opponent, and one by one they casually raised the bamboo sword in their hands to attack Ah Qing,
But at this moment, the guard felt a flower in front of him, and Ah Qing had disappeared, and at the same time, everyone felt a tightness in their throats, and they didn't know what was clicked.
As a person concerned, he didn't feel it, but the onlookers could see that when Ah Qing's body flickered, the bamboo sword in his hand hit the guard's throat ten times in a row, leaving snow-white flour traces.
The king of Yue leaned forward, rubbed his eyes with his hands fiercely, the flour at the throat of the guards was real, he was really surprised and angry, grabbed a flower pot and threw it at the guards: "You all give me a serious point, you have lost the face of Yue Guo!" ”
"Bang" The flower pot was shattered, the soil was scattered all over the ground, and the bluffing guards were frightened, and they also knew that they had underestimated the enemy just now, so they quickly slapped the flour off their bodies, forming a ring to surround Aqing, and the leader hugged A-Qing with a fist, "Just now, I waited for the enemy, and I was also merciful by Miss Aqing's subordinates, and I hope that Miss A-Qing will give us another chance." ”
"Yes!"
When the guard was stationed, he called "Start". Seeing a green shadow sweeping like a whirlwind, each guard felt a pain in his wrist, and the bamboo sword in his hand fell to the ground with a bang, followed by a tight throat, and then looked at Na Aqing, who was already standing outside the circle at this moment.
This really blinded everyone's eyes, the first time it could be said that the guards were careless, but this second time it was different, then each guard raised their spirits and was careful to be vigilant, but they were all defeated, and they were defeated so quickly.
The king of Yue was stunned at first, and then shouted "Okay!" Then they applauded, and the other ministers applauded when they saw the king's applause.
After the applause calmed down, King Yue walked down the steps and came to Ah Qing: "Ah Qing girl is really different, I don't know how you practiced this swordsmanship?" Who did you learn from? ”
"Ah Qing did not learn from others, and the swordsmanship he practiced was when Ah Qing was herding sheep, a white ape hurt the sheep, in order to protect the sheep, Ah Qing fought with the white ape, and if there were more fights, it would naturally be."
Everyone looked at each other, and this is the case?
"Oh? Can you tell us about the characteristics of your swordsmanship? ”
"The white ape is very fast, I couldn't keep up with him at first, but then I came up with the internal movement and external quiet, the last to come first, to brake with static, quiet as a rock, moving like a swift arrow."
"I see, then can you pass on your swordsmanship to the soldiers of the Lone King?"
Ah Qing twisted embarrassedly: "Back to the king, Ah Qing can only use it, but how to teach it is not." He glanced at Ji Ran and said, "But Dr. Xin is very knowledgeable, and he may be able to explain the swordsmanship I showed to the soldiers." ”
The king of Yue was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Okay, well, as long as you can train the soldiers of the lonely king well, you can do anything, Doctor Xin, since Miss Aqing ordered your general, then you can help Miss Aqing and train the soldiers of the king alone." ”
Ji Ran was embarrassed and blushed, and stepped forward to receive the order.
"It's just that how many soldiers are to be trained? Ministers, let's talk about it. ”
Hearing the king's question, the courtiers below discussed one after another, some said 10,000, some said 20,000, each with its own basis. Seeing that these people were thinking out of thin air, Ji Ran took a step forward and suggested to King Yue: "King, Ji Ran thinks that three thousand is enough. Seeing the questioning look from King Yue, he explained, "First of all, we must not train our soldiers with great fanfare, we need to be cautious, and we must not let Wu Guo find out, so the number is easy to be small; secondly, it is necessary to select soldiers with upper qualifications from among the soldiers for training, so that they can get twice the result with half the effort, so that once selected, the number of soldiers will also come down; Moreover, the soldiers trained by Ah Qing will be one enemy and ten elite soldiers, and training 3,000 is actually equivalent to 30,000; In addition, when Ah Qing trains, the number of people should not be too much each time, and if the number of people in this kind of coach's swordsmanship is too large, it will not take care of everyone, and the effect will be reduced. The above is a foolish opinion, please decide the king. ”
The king of Yue listened carefully, pondered repeatedly, and when he raised his head, his face showed a firm look: "Okay! Just do what Dr. Xin says! I hope that our monarchs and ministers will work together to achieve the great cause! ”
In this way, Ji Ran and Ah Qing were responsible for training the selected soldiers' swordsmanship every day, and Fan Li accompanied Xi Shi to travel in the mountains and rivers to recuperate physically and mentally. The king of Yue and his ministers continued to share weal and woe with the people.
In this way, three years have passed in a flash, and all other parties have gone smoothly, the soldiers have practiced their swords very well, and their skills have improved a lot, although they are not as powerful as Ah Qing, but they can almost reach one enemy ten. In terms of national strength, the king of Yue and his ministers continued to adopt the method of seven strategies, and soon accumulated a lot of wealth, and the grain in the granary was also abundant.
The decision to arrange Fan Li to accompany Xi Shi to wander the landscape is a mistake of the king of Yue, his intention is good, let the couple get along for a while, after all, they will be separated after three years, but they forget that love will make people get carried away, get along day and night for three years, who can guarantee not to cross the forbidden area. A year later, Na Xi Shi gave birth to a son for Fan Li, at this time the two were hiding in a place called Yu'er Township, a place where no one knew the two, and after giving birth to a child, they named Yu'er on the spot. The two spent a happy time with Yu'er every day. The three-year deadline is approaching, Xi Shi's face is getting more and more sad, and Fan Li often hides in no one and cries secretly. One day, Fan Li said to Xi Shi with tears in his eyes: "Yiguang, the husband is useless, I can't guarantee that you will spend your life with your husband, I will build a high pavilion here tomorrow, if you miss Yu'er and me, just look in this direction." As soon as the words came out, people burst into tears, and Xi Shi hugged Fan Li and cried bitterly. The next day, Fan Li really began to ask someone to build a pavilion, the pavilion only has one requirement, to be high, Fan Li gave a height of up to ten meters. After the efforts of the craftsmen, three months later, the pavilion was finally built, a large pavilion plaque hung under the eaves of the pavilion, three gilt characters "Yu'er Pavilion", the direction to the northwest. Everyone was puzzled, why such a tall pavilion was built, and Fan Li did not explain. When Na Xi Shi saw that the pavilion was built, he came here to look at each other, and stroked the pavilion pillar to endure the grief in his heart. After three years, the couple left Yu'er in a farmer's house and returned to Huiji Mountain.
When King Yue saw that Fan Li and Xi Shi returned on time, there was no abnormality, and he was very happy in his heart, praised Fan Li, and then arranged for someone to send Xi Shi into Wu, and Fan Li was the representative. Those who don't know think it's a good thing, and those who know are sad for the two.
A group of teams set off in a mighty way, passing through Yu'er Township, Xi Shi didn't dare to stop, just looked at the Yu'er Pavilion, and secretly shed tears in his heart. Fan Li stepped forward and comforted softly when he saw him, he must be strong and live, and after King Yue took revenge, he would meet Yu'er again. Shih Tzu hid his face and nodded. This scene, but I don't know how to spread outside, later generations of people to bamboo slips to record "Li and Shi Qiantong, three years to reach Wu, to Yu'er Pavilion as the quality, Shi had to be reluctant." Every time I read this, I really burst into tears, and I was moved by its poignant love story.
