173. The past is all the same
Zhiying slapped his forehead: "Where did I just go?" ”
Guo Mao politely reminded: "This palace appreciates you very much. ”
The two ignored Cui Yi together, and let him command the rebel army to capture those Humeng Tor royal guards, and stood in the chaos and chatted leisurely.
"Go away, go away," Zhi Ying pushed away the little soldiers who were hesitant to come up and arrest people, "There has always been a question in this palace, the first emperor is ruthless, and he likes to cross the river and tear down the bridge, with the foresight of Mr., how can he be loyal to him, and he is not afraid that when he becomes famous in the future, he will be poisoned to death like the third prince?" ”
Guo Mao smiled self-deprecatingly: "One wrong step, one wrong step, Mao is just a coward, unlike Brother Shan, who dares to gamble and is not afraid of losing, even if he knows that there will be no good end in the end...... How many heroes have died well since ancient times? King Wu is good now, but what will happen in the future, I am afraid that Niangniang will not be able to influence it. ”
Cui Yi rode the golden crow and paced slowly, looking at Guo Mao defiantly.
"Sir's worries, this palace understands very well, but now that the first emperor is dead, I don't know what Mr. plans to do next?"
Guo Mao lowered his head and thought about it, but didn't speak, Cui Yi said dissatisfiedly: "Plans?" Anyway, they are going to die, and it is too late to plan slowly on the road to Huangquan in the next life. ”
Zhiying smiled and turned her head to him, "Does the emperor know what is the best way to punish a person?" ”
Cui Yi said stupidly: "I don't know." But I know something else, you didn't intend to kill him at all, did you? What else do you say about car cracking. ”
"The heaviest punishment for a person is not to kill him, but to let him work for you for nothing," Zhi Ying pointed at Guo Mao with a wicked smile, "As the saying goes, the bell must be tied to the bell, and he is the one who instigated the countries of the Western Regions, how can there be any reason to let others clean up the mess?" It just so happens that the position of Liangzhou Mu has been vacant, so the emperor might as well hand over this drudgery to him to do, when to straighten out the northwest, and when to make a fortune. ”
Guo Mao smiled bitterly and begged for mercy: "Niangniang is still under the car crack." ”
Zhiying ignored him, and looked at Cui Yi for a long time: "Your Majesty? ”
Cui Yi looked unhappy, and looked Guo Mao up and down suspiciously: "A literati can't pick up his shoulders and can't lift his hands, in case the northwest countries call, what can he do?" Scolding people back? ”
Zhiying sighed with emotion: "Yes, I also want to know what he can do, if he can't do it anyway, the big deal is death, King Humeng Tuoer should hate him so much, why don't the emperor be a favor and give the opportunity to kill him to Jia Libeishan?" ”
Cui Yi was silent for a while with his arm copied, nodded, turned around and left, and then Zhiying called someone to tie up Guo Mao and escort him down the mountain with other prisoners.
Although her identity has been exposed, Zhiying still insists on riding a horse by herself and refuses to go to the back of the golden crow, so Cui Yi stretched her face again, discouraged and angry, and said angrily: "It's really strange, as long as you want to do something, I can't say a word to you." ”
Zhiying laughed so much that she almost got off the horse, and said jokingly: "The emperor knows right from wrong, knows everything, and knows that what the concubine said is reasonable, of course, there is no way to refute it, this is the stomach of the Ming monarch, and the emperor should be happy." ”
The two rode side by side and walked at the front of the group.
Cui Yi said: "I have already asked someone to cut off the head of that guy and send it to Yangming Pass, Jia Libei is good at it, if he has a little brain, he should know that he can't afford to mess with me, not to mention the rest of the small countries, if he doesn't have anything to do with that guy, if it weren't for the fact that he is a descendant of the royal family, who would take care of him?" Net is a rabble. ”
Zhiying smiled and said, "Oh, when I went up the mountain, I was still called big brother, but now I am that guy." ”
Cui Yi glanced at her, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he pretended to say: "Since he is a puppet, calling him that guy is already cheap for him, otherwise it should be called miscellaneous." ”
Zhiying deeply agrees with this: "He is a calculating and ruthless person, and he deserves this fate." ”
Cui Yi was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "Does he really like you?" What about you? ”
"Nope! What are you thinking about? "Holding Ying and laughing are not authentic," don't you get tired of saying this for six years? What's the matter, I don't have a beautiful past with him, and you're still not happy? ”
Cui Yi's brows furrowed, and he couldn't see the comfort of just solving the biggest opponent in his life.
He said with words that were so difficult that they were almost squeezed out: "Zhiying, I won't hide it from you, I have been with you for six years, I am really happy, although we have quarreled and blushed, but I ...... I'm still glad to marry you, even if you have ulterior motives, or even bend to cater to me, or if it's just a dream, I feel like ...... Joy from the heart. ”
“…… You can't trust me like that? Zhiying asked helplessly.
"Because you are so good, too good, you have changed my life, since the first time we met, I felt that you were far away from me, like a kite in the sky, maybe if the antenna broke, you left me."
Cui Yi pursed his lips, and he didn't seem to be used to this kind of crepe way of speaking: "This is not my feeling alone, I have asked Wen Yu, Zhong Xing, and all the people around me, including the second uncle, they all have this feeling, when Shan Fuzhi was still alive, he talked about you like this, he said that you do not belong to this mortal world, just like he will go back to heaven one day, you will eventually leave me." ”
Zhiying was surprised by them - especially Cui Yi's coarse nerves, he does not belong to this mortal world, Shan Jian's words, strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong, people like herself who know the past and the future, and can guide Cui Yi step by step to today's people in the fog, not to mention women, even men, there is no second one in this world, a strategist like Bailizan, Shan Jian or Guo Mao, even if he has the ability to reason and calculate, after all, he can't compare to a reborn person who has explored the heavens, if it weren't for this advantage, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to help Cui Yi so much.
She realized a very important thing in a trance, all she had been worried about before was whether Cui Yi's relatives would encounter any danger, especially in Bailonggang, which used to be the Soul Breaking Gang where Cui Yi lost his life, what if he couldn't cross this hurdle in this life? His mind was all on this pile, and Zhiying almost forgot the more important point - less than four months after Cui Yi's death in his previous life, he also died!
But now? Cui Yi personally killed his old enemy Cui Jie in Bailonggang, and he unknowingly spent the life and death line of Chinese New Year's Eve six years later, and the predictable life is over, and the next life that belongs to her is completely new, without Cui Jie, without the Changsun family, she can live like an ordinary person.
"Profit?"
"Ahh
Cui Yi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes worriedly: "Have you been on the road for the past few days, are you too tired?" When you get to the bottom of the mountain in a while, you can lie down for a while before you have dinner! ”
"No...... I'm not tired, I'm happy. Tears slowly welled up in Zhiying's eyes, and her voice trembled with excitement.
Cui Yi asked inexplicably: "What are you happy about?" ”
Zhiying wiped her tears and looked at him with a smile: "Now that it's over, I can tell you the truth." ”
Cui Yi immediately became nervous: "What truth?" If it's not a good thing, don't say it. ”
"It's a good thing," Zhiying was amused by his turtle style, and said, "Actually, when I was very young, my father invited a Taoist priest to tell my fortune, and the Taoist priest said that I have two roads in this life, first sweet and then bitter, first bitter and then sweet, if you take the previous road, although there is a day of great wealth and nobility, but once you climb high and fall heavy, once you fall down is a dead end, and if you first bitter and then sweet, you can enjoy peace in your later life." ”
Cui Yi really believed it, and said strangely: "There are still such masters." ”
Holding Ying Yan smiled: "No, the Taoist priest also said, this first bitter and then sweet and then bitter, are all after me and Xu, for a period of six years, if it is sweet first and then bitter, I will die at the age of twenty-two, if it is bitter first and then sweet, as long as it endures, as soon as the six-year period comes, all the suffering will pass." ”
Cui Yi's heart suddenly bloomed: "Really? That's great! Where is the Taoist priest? I will reward him heavily. ”
"Who knows, most of the world's masters travel all over the world, let's talk about it when we have a fate in the future." Gently revealing this matter is like waving her hand to dispel the smoke in front of her, from now on, she can finally completely put aside her past life and live in the present steadily.
After Cui Jie's head was sent to Yangming Pass, Xu Cheng hung it on the flagpole at the head of the city, successfully intimidating the small countries in the Western Regions.
In April of that year, Emperor Chengguang returned to Beijing by royal car, and the imperial concubine who lingered on the sickbed heard that the emperor had returned triumphantly, and her body recovered within a few days.
Cui Yi solved the big trouble in one fell swoop, and the court and the middle of the court no longer dared to disobey the voice, plus the former queen mother of the Rong family also received due courtesy, and no one in the palace praised Emperor Chengguang's filial piety and benevolence, reputation everywhere, and was overjoyed.
However, as the saying goes, the state affairs of the warm and lustful thoughts, internal and external troubles have been solved, and the high-ranking officials and wealthy people in Beijing have once again focused their attention on the issue of Cui Yi's harem.
As for these ministers in the book, they are all happy to contribute their own daughters who are better than Huajiao to help Zhiying "share".
"Oh."
After listening to the news that Xiaoqiu came back, Zhiying only gave a one-word evaluation, so she ignored it and lowered her head to continue teaching her daughter to write.
Xiaoqiu was so anxious that she jumped to her feet: "Niangniang! This beauty picture has been sent to the imperial study, why aren't you in a hurry at all? If the emperor doesn't pay attention to who he looks at, Niangniang's status will be in danger! ”
Zhiying looked at her personal maid speechlessly: "Xiaoqiu, your mother is so useless in your eyes?" Just a little flower and grass will compare the palace to the palace? Even if you don't have confidence in the emperor, you have to have some confidence in the palace, right? ”
What else was Xiaoqiu going to say, Cui Yi's laughter was already heard outside the hall: "What confidence is not confidence?" ”
