Chapter Twenty-Six: Walking
Wen Chong said on the side: "You have to be especially careful of that Wu Rong, she is the daughter of Wu Zixu, she has been in the palace since she was a child, and she has been by King Wu's side for the past ten years, and she has always regarded herself as a queen; Once you enter the palace, it will be a great threat to her, and she will never give up. Speaking of this, he stared at the hairpin in Yiguang's hair and wrinkled his eyebrows and said: "This hairpin is enough to deal with ordinary women, but Wu Rong has been riding a horse and shooting arrows since she was a child, and she has a lot of martial arts, and the maids next to her are also masters specially selected by Wu Zixu. ”
Fan Li has also been thinking about this question, and he said to Dong Yun: "You are strong in martial arts and proficient in swords, but what simple and easy-to-learn skills can teach Yiguang?" ”
Dongyun pursed his lips tightly, his heart throbbed, since Yiguang appeared, he has not separated from the word "Yiguang", in Fan Li's eyes, there is only Yiguang alone, and there is no place for her at all.
Fan Li didn't know Dongyun's thoughts, and seeing that she hadn't answered, she asked again: "How, have you thought of it?" ”
Dongyun turned his head and spit out two hard words, "No." ”
Her answer disappointed Fan Li for a while, but she didn't doubt it, "Then I'll ask others again, while there are still two days left, I can learn some." ”
Wen Chong echoed: "I'll go to Fanlou and ask later, we are finally in the same boat with Bo Yao now, and he shouldn't refuse." Speaking of this, he remembered something and said to Yiguang: "I also installed a few reliable henchmen in the palace of King Wu, they were originally Yue people, I managed to change them to the identity of Wu people, and quietly sent them to the palace on an errand; One of them is a mute, named Zhang Dali, every fifteenth day of the new year, he will go out of the palace to fetch water, you can give him the information you heard, and let him send it out of the palace. ”
After Yiguang agreed, Fan Li frowned and said: "Every fifteenth day of the new year, that is, twice a month, the interval is still a little longer, and it is best to be able to deliver the news at any time." ”
Wen Chong smiled bitterly: "I want to too, but the palace is heavily guarded, so let's enter when we say it, and go out when we say it; Even if it is Bo Yao, he must have the permission of King Wu to be able to enter and exit. ”
Fan Li said helplessly: "This is indeed a problem, wait for me to think about it again and see if I can find a suitable way." ”
Yi Guangming's eyes turned slightly, and Xu said: "The guards are strict, for people, what if it is not people who deliver the news?" ”
These words made Fan Li stunned, and he said suspiciously: "What does this mean?" ”
Outside the window, a swarm of black and yellow bees flapped their transparent wings and flew from afar, circled a few times and landed on the blooming flowers, greedily sucking the nectar.
Yiguang said slowly: "I once read in a miscellaneous book how to train bees, since they hatched, they are specially kept in captivity, they listen to the sound of the flute, and when they can fly to collect honey, they are trained to stay on different colored flowers with the sound of the flute of different lengths; For example, playing three long and two short flutes, and then giving them yellow flowers to collect honey; Four short and one long give red, four long and one short give pink; Over time, they have developed a habit of only following the sound of the flute to look for flowers of a specific color, even if the flowers around them are in full bloom. ”
At that time, Fan Li already understood, "Do you want to use the color of the bees that stop on the flowers to convey whether you are safe in the palace or not?" ”
Yiguang smiled and nodded, "Not bad; Pink means peace; Yellow indicates slight difficulty, but it can be solved; Red means danger, enter the palace as soon as possible. After a pause, she added: "Although the information that can be conveyed is limited, it is finally a method, and it can avoid people's eyes." ”
"Yes, yes, it's a good idea." Wen Chong stroked his palm and nodded, and then said: "I'll let people buy bees now, is it enough to buy ten boxes?" ”
"It's useless." Yiguang's words made Wen Chong stunned, "Didn't you just say that you could train bees to deliver messages, why can't you do it in a blink of an eye?" Or is ten boxes not enough? ”
Yiguang shook his head and said, "Bees can indeed be trained, but they are not the kind we usually see. There is a slender bee in the mountains, called the mountain bee, which is quite spiritual, cold and heat resistant, and can fly to collect honey as usual even in early winter. ”
Wen Chong bowed his head and said: "Then I will find a few bee craftsmen tomorrow to look for them in the mountains outside the city." ”
"Well, it may not be possible to train one by one, but three or four out of ten is enough." As he spoke, Yiguang remembered something again, "According to the book, in addition to the mountain peaks, it is also necessary to find a strange fragrance called 'Honey Tuo Xiang', which people can't smell, but the bees put this incense in the nectar sucked by the mountain bees; ”
Wen Chong suddenly, "Okay, I'll do it immediately; As for the incense, I will try to send it to the palace when I find it. ”
Yiguang nodded slightly, and bent his knees at Fan Li, "After I enter the palace, I have to ask Mr. to worry more about the rest of the things." ”
"You're welcome, that's what I'm supposed to do." Speaking of this, Fan Li said with a complicated expression: "You must remember to be careful in the palace, and you must not be forced in everything, otherwise I really don't know how to treat Shi Gong under Jiuquan." ”
Speaking of his father, who died unjustly and tragically, and didn't even know where the bones were, Yiguang felt a pain in her heart, but she had always been strong, and she quickly suppressed the pain and comforted: "This is Yiguang's own choice, and it has nothing to do with Mr." ”
"But ......" didn't wait for Fan Li to continue, Yiguang already said: "The past can't be chased, and tonight is still waiting." ”
Fan Li understood what she meant, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "What you said is right, tonight is the most important thing." The most important thing at the moment is to recover the Yue country, so as to live up to the righteousness of giving alms. ”
The sky darkened unconsciously, the wind was a little chilly, Yiguang couldn't help but sneeze, and his body trembled slightly.
Seeing this, Fan Li said with concern: "But it's cold?" ”
"Out of the way." Yiguang sneezed a few more times as he spoke, Zheng Dan saw that her ruddy face was a little wrong, reached out to test Yiguang's forehead, and exclaimed, "You have a fever?" ”
Fan Li was taken aback, not caring about the difference between men and women, he hurriedly stepped forward to test, and sure enough, he found that Yiguang's forehead was hot, and said urgently: "How can you be so careless?" As he spoke, he said to Dong Yun on the side: "Hurry up and ask for a doctor." ”
Yiguang smiled: "Mr. is confused, I am a doctor myself." As she spoke, she said, "I think I slept with the window open last night, and I was a little cold, and I will be fine after drinking a bowl of ginger tea." ”
"Nonsense!" Fan Li sank his face and said: "If you are sick, you have to be cured, how can you be so careless, if everyone is sick and drink a bowl of ginger tea, then what do you need a doctor to do?" Saying that, he saw that Dongyun was still standing in place, and said with some displeasure: "Why don't you go yet?" ”
Seeing that there was only Yiguang in Fan Li's eyes, Dong Yun's heart was sour, and he said in a low voice: "I'll go now." ”
Yiguang dissuaded: "It's really not necessary, I'm a doctor myself." ”
"Healers don't heal themselves, so please come and have a look." Without waiting for Yiguang to refuse, Wen Chong said again: "The day after tomorrow is the fish watching conference, if you pick this time to be seriously ill, it will be troublesome." ”
Seeing him say this, Yiguang had no choice but to give up, and after waiting for about half an hour, Dongyun arrived with the doctor, and as Yiguang said, it was a fever caused by a cold, and he was prescribed a prescription.
Fan Li kept staring at Yiguang before leaving, and after sending him out, Zheng Dan picked up a osmanthus candy and put it in Yiguang's mouth, "Hold it, go and get rid of the bitterness." ”
Yiguang leaned on her shoulder, looked at the bright stars outside the window, and said softly: "I have suffered from heart disease since I was a child, and since I can remember, I have always drunk all kinds of bitter herbs, and every time my sister sees it, she will secretly give me candy, just like now." I remember one time, when my sister was stealing candy, she was found by Aunt Zheng and punished you for not eating for a day, you were so hungry that you panicked, but even so, you refused to eat the hidden candy, so you had to give it to me to eat. ”
Hearing her talk about the old things, Zheng Dan couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, it's been so many years in a blink of an eye." As she spoke, she looked sideways at Yiguang's soft and white cheeks, and said with a smile: "Who would have thought that the skinny little girl would be so beautiful when she grew up." ”
Yiguang smiled and suddenly hugged Zheng Dan, "Vicissitudes of life, no matter how the world changes, you are my best sister, and you will not change in this life." ”
Zheng Dan said movingly: "You are also my best sister, and you will not change in this life." ”
The two sat next to each other, enjoying this rare tranquility, they didn't know what the future would hold, but as long as they were with each other, there was an inexplicable peace of mind.
I don't know how long it took, Zheng Dan suddenly chuckled, and Yiguang said in surprise: "What is my sister laughing at?" ”
"I found that Mr. Fan was very nervous about you, seeing that you were sick, he was very anxious, Sister Dongyun just went slower, so he reprimanded him, I saw that Sister Dongyun's eyes were a little red." Speaking of this, she showed a narrow smile, "Does Mr. Fan like you?" ”
Yiguang was taken aback, and quickly straightened up and said, "Sister, don't talk nonsense, I don't have a relationship between men and women for Mr. Fan." ”
Zheng Dan said with a smile: "You don't have it, it doesn't mean that Mr. Fan doesn't either." As she spoke, she added: "Actually, you two talented women are like a match made in heaven, and they can't be more compatible." ”
Yiguang's eyes trembled slightly, but he soon said with a solemn expression: "It is absolutely impossible for me and Mr. Fan to say this, please don't say this again in the future." ”
Zheng Dan didn't expect her to react so violently, and she was a little surprised for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she whispered: "Because of Uncle Shi? ”
Yiguang hid her slightly trembling fingertips in her palm, just like she hid everything in front of people, forcing herself to turn into a cold revenge machine, "Yes, I only want to avenge my father now, and I also want to fulfill his last wish and restore the Yue Kingdom." ”
Zheng Dan looked at her steadily, for a while, and said softly: "Are you tired of carrying so many things on your shoulders?" ”
Yiguang didn't answer, just said, "This is the only way I can go, there is no other choice." ”
This time, Zheng Dan didn't say anything, just clenched Yiguang's hand, "I'll accompany you." ”
A simple sentence made Yiguang's heart settle down all of a sudden, she knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, there would be people around her.
This feeling...... That's nice.
