Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 45 The Wind Rises (5)
The eldest princess was dressed in a honey-colored ancient smoke pattern Bixia Luo dress today, wearing a pair of phoenix-patterned embroidered shoes on her feet, and sat at the coffee table in the garden, and the tea in the tea cup was already cold. She was a little tired, reclining in her chair, drowsy. She's waiting for someone, but the person hasn't shown up yet.
Today the wind is a little strong, and the maid is afraid that she will catch a cold, so she brought her a shawl.
The eldest princess slowly tightened the shawl on her shoulders and whispered, "Haven't you arrived yet?" β
The maid wanted to make another pot of tea, but after listening to the eldest princess's words, she said, "Master, that person has never come from the main gate, and when has he not come in over the wall like a thief?" β
The eldest princess thought about it, so she said, "Yinping, you can make another pot of tea for me." After saying that, he curled up comfortably and dozed off again.
The maid Yinping agreed, turned away, and walked out of the garden along the path. The moment she turned, a dark figure tumbled down the side wall of the garden and walked into the garden. He didn't make a sound, like a cat, or a tiger.
He looked at the eldest princess, who was dozing off with her hands on her cheeks, and sat down on the opposite side gently, without waking her up, and sat at the coffee table.
About half a burnt incense time, Yinping came back with a pot of new tea, but as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw people sitting facing each other on both sides of the coffee table. The eldest princess didn't wake up, and the gentleman didn't move.
"Your Highness, the guests have arrived." Yinping nodded to the gentleman under the willow, walked up a few steps, put the tea set down on the table, and shook the eldest princess.
The eldest princess woke up slowly, and there were red marks on her face, but after a moment's trance, her eyes were clear, and a touch of red flew on her face, and she said, "When did Mr. arrive, I was rude." β
The gentleman smiled and said, "The eldest princess has done so many things these days, and I admire it very much. Today, his voice didn't hide too much, and he could roughly hear that it was a young man, and he did this, which can be regarded as his trust in the eldest princess.
"It's a matter of duty, after all, it's Liu's people." The eldest princess personally picked up the teapot, poured tea for the gentleman under the willow, and said, "Sir, you know Xu De's movements." β
Xu De forced the emperor away at the court yesterday and made a decision alone. Later in the evening, a fire broke out in the house of Zhang Qianfu, the imperial historian who had resigned from the court against Xu De, and after the fire was extinguished, his body was found in a pond in the backyard. For a while, the atmosphere in Jingzhong that was easy to become active changed, and I never heard of anyone who dared to talk about Xu De. And secretly, Xu De sent many spies to clear the eldest princess's forces in the dark line, and overnight, the eldest princess was completely destroyed.
The gentleman of Yanagi probably thought for a moment and said, "Yesterday's incident, we still won the victory, and the remnant victory." β
The eldest princess furrowed her beautiful eyebrows, sat down, and said, "Will Xu De chase me down the vine, or attack Ah He directly." β
"Since I didn't break the door of the eldest princess's mansion yesterday, I won't in the future." The gentleman comforted the eldest princess's heart, those ears and eyes that were cut off were actually arranged by him, and most of the members were dead soldiers who didn't know the origin of the eldest princess.
"Then you still have to declare war on the Kingdom of Jin? If Xu De marches into the north, who will be able to stop him if he leads his army down in the future. β
"There won't be such a big move anytime soon, Your Highness." The gentleman picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said: "At the moment, as long as we can restrain Xu De, we will win, Xu De is now prosperous, no one can stop his edge, what he wants, you can give him, what we need is time." β
"What if Yuhuzi is killed by him?"
"Your Highness," the gentleman said with a smile, "Do you really think that Yuhuzi is a Hanchen?" β
When the eldest princess heard this, she didn't speak, what he had been worried about seemed so naΓ―ve in the eyes of the gentlemen under the willow.
The gentleman looked at the eldest princess's face carefully, a pair of apricot eyes were still bright, but the eye circles were blue and black, presumably he hadn't been able to sleep well for the past two days, and Liu's beam was actually on her shoulders as a woman.
"Your Highness hasn't been able to rest well in the past few days, and now that Xu De has been forced to take a set, you should also have a good rest."
"Sir's advice, I'm just doing it."
"In the future, changes in the pattern will occur in the court, and Your Highness will also ask for recuperation." The gentleman stood up and saluted: "Xu De is laying a net in the city, I may rarely come to the mansion in the future, and I ask His Highness to forgive me." β
"Won't you come again?" The eldest princess's words were visibly lost.
The gentleman saluted again, turned and left. The eldest princess stared at the place where he left in a daze.
Yinping knew that the master was probably interested in this ordinary person who stole children. From childhood to adulthood, it is easy to have someone who can be relied on, but you can't see each other. Yinping gently cleaned up the tea set, not to disturb the eldest princess in a daze.
