In Ouchi, Tokyo, the afternoon sun is very beautiful, and the sky is cloudless. But in the oppressive heat wave and light, the colorful light is dazzling, but there seems to be a faint cloud of smoke over everything.

The queen had just woken up from a nap, still looking lazy and tired, and had no energy at all.

Her physique is afraid of cold and heat. Today's weather is so hot that it makes her very uncomfortable. She sat on a bamboo floor covered with breathable straw mats, languishing and not knowing what to do. There were two palace maids next to her who were holding fans and fanning them gently, but they saw that she was covered with fine sweat, and her face was already smooth and oily after being soaked in a layer of wet sweat; The palace maid fanned her, but she didn't sweat as much.

Mu Shanggong wrung out a towel in a copper basin, stepped forward to gently wipe the queen's face, and whispered to the palace maid: "Fan lightly, it's not good to be cold and hot." ”

Fu ignored them completely, and was still tossed by a group of women like puppets.

She looked at the scenery outside, but there was a green veil covering it, and all the scenery was "dyed" with a layer of green, which made it impossible for people to see it really. The veil was covered with carved wood to keep mosquitoes out; In addition, incense is also burned in the copper tripod in this side hall, which also has the effect of repelling insects.

At this moment, the eunuch Cao Tai walked out with a whisk and walked out with small steps, looked up at Mu Shang Palace, he tilted his head back and made a movement. Immediately put Mu Shanggong and the other women apart, and then stepped forward, leaned over and whispered to the queen's side.

Gradually, the corners of Fu's mouth twitched to both sides, and the smile in his eyes became thicker and thicker.

"Gee, I knew he was going to surprise me." Fu Shi said happily, the lower his voice became, "I gave him such a big promise, he finally knows how to cherish the opportunity." ”

After saying that, Fu Shi seemed to remember something, his face was slightly red, and he showed a trace of shyness for a while, but he was full of smiles in his shyness, and several emotions were intertwined, and there was an indescribable charming style, which was very attractive.

Cao Tai was also stunned, Fu's Mo Xiang'er is really not only loved by men, but so beautiful that even women like it.

Cao Tai hurriedly echoed: "Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang, or Brother Shao has a way...... Now Han Lingkun is nailed to Hebei. That Han Lingkun is Zhao Kuangyin's brother. ”

Fu raised his sleeves and covered his mouth and nose, his elegant temperament and soft movements were like light dances. Then I heard her laugh out loud, laughing flamboyantly, bending down, and indeed a little unscrupulous.

Fu laughed enough and said, "It's not over yet, and it's not so light. But what does it matter? Now might as well breathe a sigh of relief and have fun. She sat up straight, straightened her neck, her eyes were shining and her interest was very high, and she immediately called, "Mushang Palace, I want to bathe and change clothes." The body is very tired, so I dip the towel in it, what can I do? ”

"Wait a minute." Mu Shanggong walked to the door, "The slave and maid will arrange for someone to prepare." ”

As soon as the queen is in a good mood, she can do whatever she wants, and now she is going to take a bath in the afternoon, which doesn't matter, even if she wakes up in the middle of the night and suddenly wants to wash, there is nothing wrong with her.

Her tone was even a little willful: "I still have to drink!" ”

Mu Shanggong said: "Okay, even if Niangniang wants to have a banquet right away, it's okay." ”

"Forget it then." Fu Shi smiled and said, "The officials and soldiers are still on the front line, what are we talking about singing and dancing in the back." ”

Cao Tai said: "If you are happy to see the queen, everyone will be happy." ”

He was not wrong, everyone who was close to the queen was willing to see her confident and proud appearance, and only when the queen was strong and victorious, everyone could feel a sense of security.

……

Thousands of miles away, Xiongzhou, Hebei.

Guo Shao suddenly woke up and sat up sweating profusely. When he opened his eyes, the bright light was dazzling, and it took a long time to realize the time and place. I just took a nap, but I didn't expect to sleep so deeply.

His heart was still trembling rapidly. The image left in my mind still lingers...... The piles of heads, the bloody headless corpses that littered the streets, the cries of despair......

Guo Shao opened his hands, his Adam's apple squirmed, and in a trance, he saw that his hands were full of blood and couldn't be rubbed off.

"What have I done and why...... No! I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong! He muttered with wide eyes. He told himself again and again in his heart: "At that time, the situation was urgent, and the prisoners could only be let go if they were not killed, should they let go of the Liao cavalry?" They are enemies! ”

"Let them go, and more Han'er will die under the Iron Horseman. Left and right are 'killing'...... Of course I'm on my side! ”

"So I didn't do anything wrong!"

"They are brutal and indiscriminately killing innocents, and they deserve it. Have you forgotten what Mrs. Chen's family has seen? If the enemy has done it, why can't I? Fight violence with violence! Punish injustice with slaughter! ”

Guo Shao sat for a while.

In retrospect, I didn't feel much at the time, it was just a thought that happened in a moment, and it was over before I could feel what I had done and when I woke up...... But afterwards, those scenes will come to mind over and over again, and the scenes are too brutal.

No matter how much he convinces himself, it will leave a little psychological shadow.

At this time, Guo Shao took a waist ornament from the pillow, reached out and stroked it for a while, and as soon as her eyes were closed, she could see her beautiful smile like a spring breeze. He let out a long sigh of relief and whispered the words: Where are you, the goddess who was reborn and descended into the world...... Please dispel the nightmares, gloom, and fog in my heart, and please guide me in the direction when it is critical......

Gradually, his spirit cleared up, and he finally stopped his strange words and deeds.

He got up and sat down listlessly on the stool. It was sunny outside, and he took the things in his hand and looked carefully at the stitches on them in the sun, ranging in length and depth and shallowness.

Second Sister Fu seems to be able to do needlework, even if the daughter of the family has to learn to be a girl, has her sister Queen never learned?

Until late in the evening.

Guo Shao suddenly saw Jing Niang. She and her entourage traveled thousands of miles to Hebei, and finally found out about the left wing of the Hujie Army.

She brought the queen's advice, which was not written, only oral. Two things...... The first thing reminded Guo Shao that the official family may be sick. Guo Shao already knew about this. The second thing is to tell Guo Shao not to act rashly, not to show too much under the noses of the officials, to endure if he can, and to survive the obscurity.

Guo Shao listened and pondered: Isn't it too sharp to attack Zhao Kuangyin by entering the "slander" by himself?

After finishing the business, Jing Niang could only rest in the Chinese military camp that night. Guo Shao saw her bee, waist and buttocks, and he hadn't seen a woman for a long time, so he moved his hands and feet, but Jing Niang refused, so he had to give up.

Jing Niang said: "I have one more thing, I want to go to the Daimyo's Mansion and bring a group of people back for the queen, so I won't stay longer, and we'll see you in Tokyo." ”

Guo Shao hurriedly asked, "What kind of person?" ”

Jing Niang said: "It's a group of operas, and the name is 'Northern Color Noodles'." The queen said that as long as she reported to the king, there was no need to say much, so I don't know what kind of people it is. I have a letter from the Empress here, and I'm going to the Daimyo's Mansion. ”

Guo Shao couldn't ask more questions after hearing this, so he immediately asked someone to grind the ink, just wrote a letter and asked Jingniang to bring it to Fu Ermei by the way.

The woman he loves the most, which has never changed, is Marigold. But I still miss Second Sister Fu very much...... is not only the relationship between the wife, but also the second sister is as beautiful as a fairy. He can't figure it out himself, and he doesn't like to be entangled, anyway, he instinctively gets close to his second sister.

The next day, Jingniang was leaving, and Guo Shao sent a little way, but she was a little reluctant.

…… Jing Niang is more thoughtful and free than Guo Shao. Guo Shao has done some things that make him inaccessible, but Jing Niang didn't, she lived a very simple life.

So she walked straight away, not at all along.

She does things without any pressure: obviously the queen and Guo Shao are in the same group, and serving the queen is serving Guo Shao.

Daimyo's house.

When Fu Yanqing heard the mention of "Northern Color Noodles", his face changed greatly. Jing Niang took out half a piece of residual jade and a handwritten letter from the queen.

Fu Yanqing immediately retreated left and right, and asked people to go cleanly. Then I took out the other half from my body, a piece of inlay, and a gap was missing after synthesizing a piece. Fu Yanqing took Fu's letter and read it carefully with a serious expression.

After a long time, he said: "The lady will stay in the palace for two days, and the old man will see you in two days." ”

Two days later, Fu Yanqing met again, and with a light slap, he saw dozens of mermaids walking in, all of them women. At first glance there may be fifty, maybe sixty.

Their faces were painted with paint, and they were all different in all kinds of patterns, and they all looked different, but they all seemed to be the same, because they were all tall, short, fat, and thin, and their faces could not be distinguished.

They moved in unison, and bent their knees together: "We are born for the Fu clan, and we also die for the Fu clan." ”

Seeing this, Jing Niang felt very weird.

A woman with a colorful face stepped forward and said, "King Wei, do you want to watch a play?" ”

"I want to see it." Fu Yanqing said with a smile.

A group of people suddenly changed teams, took out various props such as wooden swords and fans, and circled around Fu Yanqing and Jing Niang. To be honest, Jing Niang felt that this so-called play was very ugly, and the movements were dull and stiff, not like dancing at all. But he jumped very seriously, his steps were small and fast, faster and faster, and he pretended to make a pose.

"Sister, what do you want to play?" A voice said.

Another voice said: "Let's play "Lisao". ”

"Hello! Emperor Gaoyang's seedlings are descended, and the emperor is called Boyong......" A woman's voice read straight up. There is not even a dot rhythm, let alone the dubbing of silk and bamboo orchestras.

Monotonous, pale, clumsy, contrived.

Jing Niang was almost stunned by them, standing in place in a daze, looking at the "play" in front of her, and for a while felt that what she saw was simply the most ridiculous scene in the world.
