Yiguang said respectfully: "My beauty tasted the jade soup sent by Liu Meiren, and she liked it very much, so she specially asked the slave maid to send some over, and she shared the same taste." As she spoke, she took out the bowl of jade soup that was still warm from the food box.

The corners of Liu Ji's eyes twitched slightly, coughed lightly, and said, "I think Zheng Meiren was mistaken, I didn't let people send any jade soup." ”

Yiguang pretended to be surprised and said: "Xiao Luzi obviously said that Liu Meiren specially told him to send it, how could he be mistaken." ”

Liu Ji's eyes swept over the panicked Xiao Luzi's face, and said with a false smile: "I think he remembered the mistake, it's really not me, isn't it?" In the last sentence, she was asking Xiao Luzi, who froze there helplessly, saying yes is not right, no is not right.

Yiguang said disapprerovingly: "It's okay to remember it, this jade soup is delicious and delicious, you must like it." ”

Liu Ji knew best what was put in this jade soup, and immediately prevaricated: "I don't like to drink fish soup, you can take it back." ”

Yiguang didn't seem to hear her words, and said to himself: "In the end, it's my beauty's heart, you can taste it." As she spoke, she handed the soup bowl in her hand a few more points, almost touching Liu Ji's hand, who hurriedly retracted her hand as if she had met a poisonous snake and beast, and said angrily: "Don't you understand my words, take it away!" ”

This time, Yiguang didn't force it anymore, "Since the beauty really doesn't want to drink, the slave can only take it to the king." ”

Liu Ji was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "A small bowl of fish soup, pour it, why bother to send it." Besides, when you send it to the king, it will already be cold, and there will be no taste. ”

Yiguang smiled and said: "The king has a deep affection for my beauty, and the so-called love for the house and Wu, even if it is cold, he must like it." With that, she put the jade soup in the food box and left.

How dare Liu Ji let her bring this jade soup to her husband, and hurriedly called to stop, "Nonsense, the big kingdom is busy, how can you be a little maidservant who can see it when she says it, be careful that people don't see it, and you will be punished first." ”

Yi Guangying smiled, "Is the beauty really worried about the punishment of the slave and maid, or is she afraid that the king will see this jade soup?" ”

Liu Jilu's fingertips outside his sleeves trembled slightly, and he said uncomfortably: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"What's in this jade soup, the slave knows it, and the beauty also knows it, if the beauty doesn't drink it, the slave and the maid can only ask the king to be the master."

Liu Ji's pupils shrank suddenly, staring firmly at the mediocre and even a little ugly face, "Are you threatening me?" ”

"Slaves don't dare." Yiguang calmly looked at the flustered face, "The beauty should have expected such a result before buying Xiaoluzi. ”

"Presumptuous!" was told the secret in her heart by her words, Liu Ji was annoyed and angry, and slapped Yiguang in the face with a palm, but when she was only an inch away, she was grabbed by the wrist and couldn't move, and it was no one else who grabbed her, it was Yiguang.

Liu Ji was shocked and angry, and said angrily: "What, I can't teach you a lesson?" ”

"Of course, the beauty can teach the slave a lesson, but the consequences of this palm ......" Yiguang's tone was as cold as ice and snow, "Did the beauty really think clearly?" ”

Liu Ji shuddered when she stared at her, withdrew her hand, and said sharply: "Isn't it just a palace maid, if you beat it, what can be the consequences." Having said that, this palm did not dare to be beaten down no matter what.

Yiguang saw the timidity and uneasiness in her heart, took out the jade soup again, and said with a smile: "Then according to the meaning of the beauty, how to deal with this jade soup?" ”

Liu Ji's face was ugly, she bought Xiaoluzi to eat chin beans in the soup, she originally wanted Zheng Dan to suffer some hardships and show her resentment in her heart, but she never expected that it would become her own hot potato, how can this be good?

After thinking for a moment, she said, "Ayi, go and bring the soup." As she spoke, she quietly glanced at the palace maid named Ayi.

Ayi understood, stepped forward to take the jade soup in Yiguang's hand, and was about to pretend to accidentally fall and knock over the soup bowl, when Yiguang's shallow voice sounded in his ears, "There is still a lot of jade soup left in my beauty, and I can serve it to the king at any time." ”

Liu Ji's face turned pale, this Yiguang was so sharp-eyed, she actually saw their plans, it seems that this disaster cannot be avoided today.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth fiercely, followed the jade soup with a faint fishy smell in Ayi's hand, closed her eyes and drank it in one go, and then threw the bowl on the ground and fell to pieces, just like her face at the moment, "Satisfied?" ”

Yiguang smiled slightly, "The slave and maid retreat." ”

Seeing her go, Xiao Luzi hurriedly followed, he knew in his heart that he had betrayed Liu Ji, if he stayed here, the latter would have to pick his own skin, and he could avoid it for a while.

It's a pity that Liu Ji didn't want him to avoid it for a moment, and as soon as he took a few steps, he was stopped by Ayi, "The beauty has something to ask you." ”

Xiao Luzi turned around stiffly, and without waiting for Liu Ji to ask, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed and begged for mercy, "The beauty spares her life, it's really that Yiguang is forced to ask tightly, and the slave has no choice, so he said it, begging the beauty to be gracious!" ”

Liu Ji slapped Xiao Luzi in the face fiercely, and said sharply: "You have burned the fire to me, and you still have the face to beg me for mercy?" ”

Xiao Luzi didn't dare to speak, but kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, Liu Ji was about to speak, when suddenly there was a cramping pain in his abdomen, and he bent over in pain, "Ouch! Ouch! ”

Ayi hurriedly helped her, "The slave and maid help the beauty to go to the clean room." "The so-called clean house is the place where the grains are reincarnated.

Liu Ji nodded, and was unwilling to let go of the small way, and said bitterly: "Put ...... Take this slave out and beat him hard. Before the words fell, there was a more intense cramping pain in her abdomen than just now, as if something was about to rush out, she couldn't care about maintaining her demeanor, and she couldn't wait for Ayi, she quickly ran to the clean room, and where she passed, she could faintly smell a peculiar smell......

Besides, on the side of Yeting, since Yiguang left, Zheng Dan has been nervous, lest something happen to Yiguang, so he finally waited for her to come back, hurried up, and said nervously: "What's wrong, has Liu Meiren embarrassed you?" ”

Yiguang smiled and held her hand, "Sister, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Seeing that Yiguang was indeed fine, Zheng Dan relieved himself and asked about Lanyue Pavilion, and learned that Yiguang forced Liu Meiren to drink the bowl of jade soup, he wanted to laugh but was a little worried, and hesitated: "If you do this, I'm afraid that you will offend her from now on, and you will be in trouble in the future." ”

"Sister thinks that if we don't do anything, she will let us go?" Without waiting for Zheng Dan to answer, Yiguang already shook his head and said, "No, she will only feel that her sister is weak and can be bullied, and she will become even worse." ”

"From the moment my sister entered the palace, she became a thorn in the side of everyone in the harem, except for the king, I am afraid that no one in this palace can accommodate my sister, the queen mother is like this, and Liu Meiren is also the same."

Zheng Dan was flustered when he heard this, "That...... How's that good? ”

"Sister, don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay." After appeasing Zheng Dan, Yiguang said again: "After this incident, Liu Meiren's side should stop for a while, as for the Queen Mother, let's think about it slowly." ”

"That's all it can be." Zheng Dan nodded helplessly.

The sun shines brightly on a late summer afternoon, pouring down from the branches of the blossoming trees and shining on the bluestone steps.

Zheng Dan looked at the layers of light and shadow on the steps, and said softly: "There is one thing that I have never understood. ”

Yiguang folded a few slender blades of grass and played with them in his hand, "What does my sister want to ask?" ”

"Yesterday was obviously a fish watching conference, why did you and Dazai-sama have to let the fish sink, I was about to jump out in a panic at that time, for fear of being discovered." Yesterday, when she took a boat to the center of the lake instead of Yiguang, she quietly poured the "Thousand Days Drunk" into the lake according to Bo Ya's instructions, and the koi near the boat drank the Thousand Days of Drunkenness, and immediately sank to the bottom of the lake drunk, thus creating the illusion of "sinking fish". As for the bottle, she also threw it into the lake, so it was not discovered by Wu Rong.

Yiguang smiled lightly, "Sister, do you remember the person I saved outside Ramie Village?" ”

Zheng Dan bowed his head, "Of course I remember, the person you saved is King Wu, he will never forget you, and this fish watching conference is also for you." ”

"But something went wrong." In Zheng Dan's puzzled gaze, Yiguang said in a slow voice: "Dazai told Mr. Wen that when I passed by the stream that day, King Wu saw the wind blow the corner of the veil, and then the fish in the stream sank to the bottom of the water, so he thought it was because of my beauty; So yesterday's fish watching was just a pretense, and it really depended on who could make the fish sink. ”

"Is there such a strange thing?" Zheng Dan was surprised, Yiguang was indeed beautiful, like a fairy descending to earth, but the fish swimming in the water, the wisdom was not opened, and he didn't know how to appreciate the beauty at all, how could he sink to the bottom because of this?

"When I first heard about this, I couldn't figure it out, but then I finally understood." Yiguang put a swimming fish made of grass in Zheng Dan's palm, "The fish in the stream outside the village is born in late spring, and after a summer, it will gradually grow, and then it will swim along the water to the big river, and wait until the spring of the next year, and then return against the current to lay eggs, and he will die of exhaustion." ”

"I know that every spring, there are many villagers who stay by the stream, just to catch those dying big fish."

"What King Wu saw should be the scene of those fish sinking to the bottom of the water after spawning, he doesn't know the habits of those fish, but it's because of me."

"I see." Zheng Dan suddenly said, "So you asked Dazai-sama to prepare a thousand days of drunkenness?" ”

"Well, if you want to get close to King Wu, you must reproduce the scene of sinking fish, but Taihu Lake is not the stream outside our village, and it is not spring now, so you can only use a thousand days of drunkenness to attract King Wu's attention." As he spoke, Yiguang advised: "Sister must keep in mind this matter, don't say that you missed your mouth." ”

After Zheng Dan responded, Yiguang remembered something again, and took out the small bamboo flute from his arms, "This is a gift from King Wu that day, as a token of each other, and please take it away from my sister." ”

"Okay." After receiving the bamboo flute with Yiguang body temperature, Zheng Dan suddenly sighed, and said with pity: "You and King Wu have a lot of fate, if there is no war, if Xu can really become a pair of immortal couples." ”

Yiguang looked stunned, and then said coldly: "King Wu invaded my territory and killed thousands of innocent people, even my father...... also died at the hands of their Wu people; So in this case, please don't say it again in the future. Thinking of her father, who didn't even know where the bones were, Yiguang felt a pain in her heart, no matter how deep her fate with her husband was, she was always no match for the hatred of the country and the family.

Zheng Dan also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and said guiltily: "I just feel a little pity, that's why I ...... I'm sorry. As she spoke, she held Yiguang's slightly trembling hand, "Although Uncle Shi is gone, you still have me, I will always be by your side and never give up!" ”

Looking at Zheng Dan's sincere and concerned gaze, Yiguang slowly showed a smile, "A word is a certainty, if my sister breaks her word, I won't spare you!" ”

"Definitely not!" Zheng Dan rested his head on Yiba's shoulder, although the country was ruined, at least they still had each other as companions, so they wouldn't be too lonely.

After a long silence, Zheng Dan stared at the fish in his palm and said softly: "Yiguang, do you think we can return to our hometown in the end like the fish in the stream?" ”

Yiguang's eyes twitched, and he turned into a gentle smile in an instant, "Yes, when the time comes, my sister will remember to accompany me to the forest to take out the wine buried in the ground, and we will rest as soon as we get drunk." ”

"Okay, let's get drunk." Zheng Dan also laughed, "By the way, remember to call Mr. Fan and Mr. Wen, they are all lively." ”

Yiguang looked sideways at Zheng Dan who was leaning on her shoulder, she was innocent, thinking that everyone could get out of this chaotic war......

Sister, I will definitely find a way to send you back to Ramie Village, so that you can live a peaceful life.

On the edge of Taihu Lake, Wu Rong slowly walked on the grassy lakeside, and the scene of Zheng Dan's sinking fish yesterday kept flashing in his mind.

Zheng Dan does have some beauty, but to say that even the koi fish fell for it, sinking to the bottom of the lake and not daring to appear, it is too ridiculous, there must be something strange in it, but the husband and brother trust the Yue girl very much, no matter what she says, he doesn't believe it, and reprimands her for this, which is really too much.

Thinking of yesterday's incident, Wu Rong couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but she was quickly suppressed again, and the top priority was to find out how the Yue girl sank the koi.

But no matter how she thinks, she can't figure out the reason, to say that cats, dogs, pigeons and birds can still be trained, how to train this fish?

Or rather...... What kind of magic did you use?

The maidservant girl holding an umbrella wiped the hot sweat on her forehead and persuaded: "Miss, we have already circumnavigated most of the Taihu Lake, and the weather is so hot, let's go back." ”

Wu Rong glanced at her and said unhappily: "What's the matter, it's too hard?" ”

The maid hurriedly said: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave is worried that the young lady will suffer from heat stroke, and the king should be distressed at that time." ”

Hearing her mention her husband, Wu Rong's heart was sour, and he said angrily: "He only has that Yue girl in his heart, and he won't feel sorry for me if I die." ”

The maid was shocked, and quickly spat on the ground, and said hurriedly: "Miss, don't say anything, it's unlucky." ”

Wu Rong was about to speak, when he saw several people gathered around from a distance, as if something was wrong, so he said, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”
