After three years of Qi Zhi's hard work, the hidden dangers after the rebellion are still getting more and more intense, and when he ascended the throne, the prince rebelled, and finally became the emperor after quelling the chaos. also has to accept the criticism of the old officials of the previous dynasty, saying that Qi Zhi is plotting to usurp the throne, but this is the case. These old officials couldn't be killed, they couldn't be driven away, and they also colluded with the exiled prince in an attempt to restore orthodoxy. After Chen Yangyang, who was guarding the border pass, heard the news, he even opened the border pass, allowing the enemy country's army to drive straight in, causing a lot of damage to the Wu country. Under the external worries and internal troubles, there are foreign countries eyeing each other, and there are old officials disturbing the court, and after a long time, there is no need to wait for others to call, and the Wu Kingdom will disintegrate and disintegrate.
In the face of the situation that the Wu Kingdom is about to perish if it continues to develop like this, Wu Ye'er feels that she has to speed up her pace as soon as possible, there is no saint in this world who sacrifices herself, and she doesn't think about selfless dedication, but she can't let go of too many things, and always thinks that as long as she shelters them from the wind and rain, everyone can be safe. And when the time comes, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, but it will come eventually, and even if it comes, she will face it calmly.
Therefore, when Wu Ye'er said to He Jing with pleading: "Little He Jing, help me, help me find a contact person who can contact high-ranking officials from various countries." He Yan didn't think about it and said, "Okay, when do you want to meet him, I'll arrange it." ”
He Jing's relationship network has always looked at the whole world, and she didn't ask Wu Ye'er the reason, but seriously asked Wu Ye'er what kind of person she was looking for and what the degree was, and in less than five days after collecting the news, she arranged an opportunity for Wu Ye'er to meet with her contact.
The first person Wu Ye'er met was Liu Wenlong, and He Yan arranged the two people who were drifting apart together, and when they saw that the two also knew each other, they left with confidence. Wu Ye'er had no doubts about He Yan looking for Liu Wenlong to meet her, she was just surprised that Liu Wenlong was not simpler than she imagined. It is said that the surname of a country is Liu, and it just so happens that Liu Wenlong is also surnamed Liu, but Wu Yeer does not know Liu Wenlong's identity, only knows that he is a master who is not stupider than himself, and he should be the successor after resigning. I haven't seen him for a long time, Wu Ye'er has a very deep impression of Liu Wenlong, almost a year ago, she became a county official after her new official took office, and he was her military partner at that time, only after experiencing the events of the imperial history She had no intention of being an official, and left without saying hello, so she still didn't know how to define the relationship between the two.
After He Jing left, the two of them could only stare at each other, they were all waiting for each other to speak, but Liu Wenlong still couldn't resist the throbbing of meeting again and said, "Is there anything wrong with me?" If I can help you, I'll do my best. ”
Wu Ye'er nodded gratefully, at this time, should she tell her plan or say a little bit of information that she might need, the most basic thing is that she should also grasp Liu Wenlong's basic information to facilitate the adaptation of the plan, but after thinking about it, she suddenly said in a ghostly manner: "Do you know the witch of the Wu Kingdom?" ”
As soon as the words were spoken, Wu Ye'er felt that it was a little inappropriate to say this, and then Liu Wenlong shook his head, and the two were silent for a while, before Wu Ye'er asked, "Do you want to know about Wu Zhu?" Liu Wenlong said: "Of course, if you are willing to speak, I will listen to you." ”
Liu Wenlong He doesn't know anything about Wu Zhu very well, he likes to compare with others, so he compares from his own country to other people's countries, just like this, he just wants to meet someone who is better than himself, which is also the reason why he has been pestering Wu Ye'er, in his opinion, it is a great gift to meet a person who can make him lose, and he can learn more from that person, so he will become more incomprehensible. Liu Wenlong, who soon listened to Wu Ye'er's story, accepted Wu Ye'er's intimidating suggestion, and soon, in the name of discussing major matters, he bought the house next to Wu Ye'er and officially became her neighbor.
He Jingdu said that Wu Ye'er was a lucky master, and she easily handled the most difficult Liu Wenlong. However, Wu Ye'er didn't think so, she deliberately lived with He Jing, and then invited Liu Wenlong to come to He Jing to play, setting off He Jing's advantages as if they were rare in the world, and then self-deprecating again. She often created opportunities for He Yan and Liu Wenlong to get together, and gradually the three of them became acquainted, and Wu Yeer also wanted to fade out of Liu Wenlong's sight and draw a thread for He Jing's marriage.
Even He Jing, who has always been dull to love, found out that Liu Wenlong likes Wu Ye'er, and every time the three of them drink tea and chat together, Liu Wenlong's eyes are always inseparable from Wu Ye'er. As long as Wu Ye'er said something to him, he seemed to have obtained something that was only in the world, and his breath became short. He Jing doesn't like Liu Wenlong, but since she learned about Wu Ye'er's relationship history, she still wants to create an opportunity for Liu Wenlong, at least find someone who loves her for Wu Ye'er. She didn't know when her marriage would come, and whether the destined person was or not, but she just made a basic judgment about Liu Wenlong, he was not.
He Jing later connected a lot of contacts for Wu Ye'er, and Liu Wenlong had an attitude towards them with an attitude of treating his rivals, and his face was black all day. But He Yan didn't care about Liu Wenlong's thoughts, she gave priority to taking into account Wu Ye'er's feelings, and kept finding a lot of people for Wu Ye'er who could contact other countries. Wu Ye'er hopes too much to change the situation of Wu Guo, so no matter what kind of bull-headed ghost the other party is, she will not refuse to meet them one by one, she has seen concubines from other countries, princes, children of high-ranking officials, or illegitimate children, and many people who can't figure out the relationship, but do meet Wu Ye'er's requirements. He Yan couldn't help but say that she had met almost all the people with status in all countries, some of these people were useful to her, some she thought were useful but the other party did not cooperate, and more did not believe Wu Ye'er's empty words.
In the face of too many people to count, the most she asked was the sentence: "Do you know, Wu Zhu?" Sometimes the answer is yes, but very little is understood, so Wu Ye'er must emphasize to him the threat of Wu Zhu. But more often than not, I don't know, and I have to start from the beginning. She can accept the above two situations, but what she hates to encounter the most is the kind of reason that doesn't want to pay attention to her.
It's okay that she found too many people, and she couldn't prove that Wu Zhu was very threatening, so many people politely accepted her point of view, but they were suspicious in their hearts, and most people simply thought she was crazy and talked about something unnecessary. She thought at the beginning, isn't it just for them to kill Wu Zhu? What a simple thing, but in the end, everything didn't go as she wanted.
However, although she did not put the plan in place in one step, she also summed up a lot of lessons from the past, and it is not a bad thing to fail a few more times. At least she also knew from the mouth of a man who didn't hide his words that the meaning of the three of them becoming tigers, especially those of their status, would not believe in legends or rumors, because these were just a means for the emperor to rule the people, and they all knew it. I also know from a person who looks like a general that if those who march and fight are afraid because of the words of others, then they simply surrender. In order for them to be convinced of this, they must be allowed to see or feel the power of the witch blessing with their own eyes. He also met a slightly older middle-aged man, who told her that there was no record of the incident about Wu Zhu in ancient books, at most only the Wu clan, so he had every reason to believe that this was a means used by the Wu clan in order to exaggerate themselves.
Every time I met He Jing, she kindly asked her about the situation: "How is it going now?" Wu Ye'er always said helplessly: "It's still the same, it seems that if you don't give them some hardship, you can't change their opinion." ”
One of the last meetings He Jing arranged for her was a eunuch who was favored by the emperor, who had been in the palace since he was a child, and now he was favored, but Wu Ye'er could say for sure that he was not a complete man. She sat face to face with the eunuch, listening to him praising how powerful his country was, belittling the chaotic and disorderly Wu Kingdom, and paying no attention to Wu Zhu, a thing that had been fabricated. Wu Ye'er looked at this person wearing a eunuch costume, with a sharp voice, and raised her orchid fingers to talk about something that didn't match the horse's mouth, and finally couldn't help but say, "I think you should be very relaxed in normal times." ”
"Easy? Of course, I'm a celebrity next to the emperor. I usually have scouts in my clothes and scouts in my baths, so it's not easy. What about you? I guess you have to do everything yourself, so you should be tired. ”
Wu Ye'er made a funny expression: "I like to be tired." She laughed a few times and then stopped and said, "Yes, yes, of course you are the most relaxed, you have lightened your burden since you were a child." is worthy of being a celebrity around the emperor, but he is more relaxed than others. ”
She leaned back and laughed as if she had seen something funny, laughing and laughing, glancing between his strides from time to time, and finally she remembered that he raised his trembling orchid fingers.
He Yan was depressed for a while, so she was offended by the eunuch to death, but when she heard Wu Ye'er tell the whole process, tears burst into tears.
He Yan laughed angrily: "You don't need to attack other people's weaknesses." He has lost the right to be a man since he was a child, which can be regarded as pitiful. You just let him go, but in fact, others are not bad. ”
Wu Ye'er said helplessly: "Whoever makes him speak can't speak clearly, I am annoyed to death, and he is okay if he is angry." ”
He Yan hesitated for a moment before taking out an invitation from her sleeve: "Xiao Ye'er, Xiao Tan Xiang has been sent to marry Prince Zheng Guo, this is her invitation, she hopes we can go." ”
Is it still the day of the day? Wu Ye'er's heart was torn apart, and she felt that this was too ridiculous. She is her own sister, why can't Qi Zhi look at her own face and let her go once. The object of her marriage is Prince Zheng Guo, Zheng Quanfu, in order to help each other politically, they all absolutely use marriage to deepen the relationship, they may not even see each other, and they are going to talk about marriage, which is unfair to Tan Xiang.
"Does Little Tan Xiang need us to save her?" Wu Ye'er asked, saying this sentence only made her feel better, even if she was obviously powerless about this matter.
He Yan said: "She said that she didn't need us to save her, she was waiting for a hero of the world, but not us." Xiao Tan Xiang said that she had given all her feelings for Tang Jun, but in the end, it was Tang Jun who was the first to send her to others. Although I don't know the situation at the time, I think that little Tan Xiang must be very painful, as long as Tang Jun says to take her away, she can give up everything and fly away with him, but in the end, Tang Jun still took Tan Xiang to the imperial city according to the emperor's order, Xiao Tan Xiang must be desperate, anyone can catch her, but Tang Jun can't. She said that Zheng Quanfu loves her very much, and she will respect her like a guest after she gets married, and she will gradually fall in love with him, and we don't have to find a way to save her, because ...... Her heart is dead. ”
Just like a parent who wants to marry a daughter, when they receive first-hand news, all the sisters go to the appointment without thinking. When Tan Xiang, who was dressed in a wedding dress, stepped on the carriage to pick up her relatives, Wu Ye'er stared at Tan Xiang under the red hijab, and couldn't help but cry like rain. Now Tan Xiang is more beautiful than ever, and the people on the street are full of praise for this beauty, but only they who accompany Tan Xiang day and night can feel the sadness under the brilliance, that man is so lucky to marry one of the six most beautiful women in the world.
Wu Ye'er and He Jing looked for Tang Jun once before coming, but he didn't appreciate it. After several years of companionship and love, he still ended up like this, is Tang Jun too cowardly, or is the reality too terrible? Wu Ye'er doesn't want to worry about these anymore, she just wants God to bless Tan Xiang, as long as Tan Xiang can be healthy and safe, it is more important than everything, in Wu Ye'er's heart, no one will be happier than her sisters.
The person who presided over the marriage shouted beside him, one worships heaven and earth, the other worships the high hall, and the husband and wife worship each other, and send them into the cave room.
He Yan said: "Little Tan Xiang, goodbye." ”
As soon as He Yan's voice fell, there was a suppressed cry, but she didn't need to turn her head to look to know who it was, it was Xiao Rosie's cry, there was Liu Jing's ...... And their own. Wu Ye'er feels that their lives are like living upside down, others are bitter first and then sweet, they are all sweet first and then bitter, no matter how much she has experienced, she is also the Wu Ye'er she knew back then in front of Tan Xiang. Only Tan Xiang has to bear such pain, Wu Ye'er looked at Tan Xiang's back, and cried aggrievedly, she told herself Wu Ye'er, you are really useless, where have all the proud things in the past gone? Where have they gone?
After the bride and groom left the stage, Wu Ye'er, who wiped her face, and a group of sisters drank together, this was Xiao Tan Xiang's wedding, they couldn't cry, they had to laugh and be happy. The five beauties at the same table gathered together also attracted the attention of many people, especially Wu Ye'er, who was sitting in the middle with the stars holding the moon. Flowers are more beautiful than people, and even the moon is eclipsed. Facing the son-in-law who was seeking to talk, Wu Ye'er took the initiative to take their wine, as long as they toasted, she would not refuse.
When Wu Ye'er was crazy, He Jing took the wine glass for her: "I'll drink, you rest first." ”
Wu Ye'er poured herself wine: "I don't want to rest, today is Xiao Tan Xiang's big day, I'm happy, I want to drink, I want to get drunk." ”
There were piles of empty wine bottles on the table, and after a series of toasts, all the sisters were spared, and now, no one came up to take it close. Wu Ye'er was about to shout at everyone to go home, when she heard someone say: "Prime Minister, please sit down, a few girls, please stay and let me introduce you, this is the new Prime Minister, Lord Wufeng." ”
Xiao Si was still introducing the new guest in more detail, and the man did not stop Xiao Si's sycophancy, but nodded and smiled at Wu Ye'er, and never left his gaze.
"How many girls are?"
Wu Ye'er motioned for Xiao Si to step back with her eyes, and then she said in a complicated mood: "Senior brother, we haven't seen each other for many years, right?" How are you doing after separation? ”
Wu Feng nodded with a smile: "What about you?" Little crying bag? ”
Little Crying Bag, what a strange and familiar name, only he gave himself this nickname, and only he had seen his fragile past. When she was a child, she faced cumbersome books, when she thought of the time when she didn't play all day, she always looked at it and cried, he seemed to have guessed this, and everything would be not far from her, as soon as she heard the cry, he would put a piece of candy in her mouth, and looked at her eyes red and said, "My little crying bag, don't cry, I'm coming." ”
yes, you're here, so I don't cry. But if she hadn't experienced the deception of her senior brother before, Wu Ye'er might still be intimate with her senior brother without any barriers. However, how many years have passed since he faked his death that day? It's been at least five or six years. Five or six years is enough to change a person. A purposeful joke that kept her tangled and miserable for years. He lied to himself for so long that she really thought he was dead.
"I'm doing average." Wu Ye'er replied.
He Jing avoided Wufeng and whispered to Wu Ye'er, "Ye'er, is he your senior brother?" He's not...... Passed away?? ”
Wufeng probably guessed what He Yan was going to say: "Before, for some reason, I had to wronged Ye'er, and I want to say sorry to Ye'er." ”
Wu Ye'er also reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth to reveal a smile: "Yes, it's just a small grievance, you don't need to apologize to me." You didn't do anything to be sorry for me. ”
Unbeknownst to Rosie, she toasted a glass of wine to the arrival of Senior Brother Wu Ye'er and said that she wanted to celebrate this good deed. Wufeng took the wine without hesitation and raised a glass to Wu Ye'er. Wu Ye'er was not polite, after pouring a glass of wine, she clinked glasses with Wufeng, regardless of the wine that was spilled everywhere, she tacitly exchanged wine glasses in the process of clinking glasses, and drank it all in front of her sisters.
