Chapter 18: Father and Daughter Night Talk
In the dead of night, everything is silent. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In a study room north of the Pengcheng County Shoufu, Wen Shidao sat in front of the desk, and there was a young man sitting opposite him in the room.
Wen Shidao loves his wife deeply, and he is not a person who is greedy for beauty, so he has never married a concubine, and only gave birth to a daughter under his knees.
The young man who stayed in the house at this time was Wen Shidao's nineteen-year-old daughter, named Wen Muyan.
For Wen Muyan, Wen Shidao and his wife regarded it as a pearl in their palms, and cherished and loved it extraordinarily, but some time ago, for some reason, Wen Muyan went to Beiliang City without saying goodbye, but unfortunately was surrounded by the Jin army in the city.
If it weren't for Xuanyuan Chen's victory in the Battle of Beiliang City, Wen Muyan would have been doomed.
After all, she is a woman, and she is still a beautiful woman, and beautiful women often become the most miserable victims in troubled times.
Therefore, when Wen Muyan escaped from Beiliang City unharmed, Mrs. Wen would personally thank Xuanyuan Chen regardless of etiquette and express her gratitude in her heart.
The moonlight is like a dream, and the candlelight is like a fantasy.
In the study, although Wen Muyan is a daughter, she is wearing dark men's clothes, and at a glance she looks like a handsome and heroic rich man, with a little feminine indifference on her face, and a pair of deep eyes, which look a little hazy.
Wen Shidao looked at his daughter, his eyes showed a little relief, and he said in a low voice: "Yan'er, how can our family's current predicament be solved in your opinion?" ”
Wen Muyan's expression was indifferent, as if he couldn't understand what his father was referring to, he raised his hand and gently stroked the hair on his sideburns, and wrote lightly: "Father already has a plan in his heart, why should he ask his daughter?"
Under the jumping candlelight, Wen Muyan's face was a little illusory.
Hearing the teacher's smile, he had long been accustomed to his daughter's way of speaking without distinguishing between father and daughter, and he didn't mind it at all, and said: "Father has no plan, he is already completely haggard, hey...... In the end, the plan can't catch up with the changes, the situation is unpredictable, and the world is unpredictable, which can be mastered by manpower. ”
Wen Muyan's eyebrows frowned slightly, Wen Shidao's words made her feel very strange, her father was by no means a person who would feel self-pity and self-pity, and a trace of doubt appeared on his unmoving face: "Doesn't my father have a plan in his heart, he just wants to be passive everywhere and let people eat him?"
Wen Shidao sighed softly, and said a little listlessly: "My father is old, and the things in his head have grown to the flesh, so where do you have any plans?" ”
As he spoke, Wen Shidao's buttocks twisted, as if he wanted to find a comfortable position, and the fat on his body trembled, and the tumbling waves were full of hilarious funny.
However, Wen Muyan didn't smile at all, her long eyelashes flickered, and her eyebrows looked extremely cold and indifferent, this unique aura of her can often make people ignore her age, and even ignore her appearance, the only thing that attracts attention is a ribbon on her hair bun.
The ribbon is as blue as the sea and as pure as the sky.
After a long time, Wen Muyan said in a slightly cold tone like spring water: "If the father has a place to get his daughter, even if he tells him, the daughter must do her best."
Wen Shidao's belly straightened, Lao Huai smiled comfortingly, and suddenly saw a pair of black and white eyes, his heart was shocked, only to find that Wen Muyan was staring at him intently, as if to see through his heart.
Wen Muyan's eyes lit up for a moment, like a meteor, and then he lowered his head and never looked at his father again.
Wen Shidao hesitated, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile, and sighed: "Girl, you can't stand being a father like this...... Well, isn't it okay to admit your mistake for your father? ”
Wen Muyan's tone was still cold: "The father admits his mistake, but the daughter doesn't understand."
Wen Shidao confessed: "Just like you said, I have a plan in my father's heart, and those words just now are just ......" He swallowed, and showed a little twist in front of his daughter.
Wen Muyan stared at his father, his eyes suddenly became as profound and quiet as an autumn pool, and he said lightly: "Father just said this, I just hope that my daughter can speak and encourage, and then take the opportunity to ask her daughter, right?"
Wen Shidao nodded, with amazement and helplessness in his expression.
He has always attached great importance to Wen Muyan, not only because she is his only daughter, but also because this daughter has a calm and calm that does not match her age, as well as unimaginable wisdom and vision.
Wen Shidao has a very high opinion of himself in this life, but in front of his daughter, he has always been ashamed of himself, as if now, he has no temper after being exposed, and his bitter face is like a prisoner waiting to be released.
A scheming and cunning person has become a coward who can't speak, and if this scene falls in the eyes of outsiders, it will definitely fall into the eyes of the ground.
The dim candlelight in the room flickered, but it illuminated the wandering eyes of the father and daughter.
Wen Muyan sighed faintly and asked, "Father, you should have seen that person, right?"
Without waiting for Wen Shidao to answer, Wen Muyan said again: "You must have seen it, it seems that he didn't embarrass you, and the two of you have reached some kind of tacit understanding."
Except for Leng Junao and Butler Kang Zhuang, no one knew what Wen Shidao and Xuanyuan Chen had talked about, but from Wen Muyan's words, it seemed that she had already understood.
In front of his own smart and demonic daughter, Wen Shidao had nothing to hide, and truthfully told everything that happened in the garden in the afternoon.
When he spoke, there was a hint of helplessness in the eyes of Wen Shidao.
Wen Shidao said: "That King of Beiliang was a fool in the past, and I don't know what kind of opportunity he encountered, but he was reborn and can be called the best of the best."
Hearing the flow of smoke and autumn waves, a touch of amazement flashed in his eyes, and he asked: "What a leader of people, that person has the potential of a dragon to soar into the sky!"
Wen Shidao's eyes showed a look of surprise, he didn't expect his daughter to give such a high evaluation to King Beiliang.
Wen Muyan lowered her eyes, and her mind recalled the scene when Xuanyuan Chen led three thousand unarmored Han troops and fought bloodily.
At that time, she was on the castle tower, and she would never forget the man who was like a god descending into the world, and all the words of blood and courage in heaven and earth were not exaggerated to use on him.
That's the real man, and the hero in her heart!
Inadvertently, Wen Muyan's eyes were blurred like a dream, Wen Shidao didn't pay attention, and said in a heavy tone: "Beiliang City was besieged by the Jin army, I didn't send troops to save it, and the remnants of the cavalry that escaped from Beiliang City also died in Pengcheng, if the king of Beiliang didn't say it, he would definitely be resentful in his heart, and the estrangement between me and him was difficult to eliminate."
Wen Muyan's body trembled, and his face seemed to be difficult to figure out under the flickering candlelight.
Under the surprised gaze of Wen Shidao, I saw her stand up, walk to the window and look far away, a gust of evening wind blew, bringing a bit of early winter cold, cold people chilled in their bones.
Wen Muyan knew very well what his father was planning in his heart, and what kind of road he was going to take, this was a road of no return that even she could not see the slightest light, but when she heard her father say that it was difficult to get rid of the estrangement with the King of Beiliang, she knew that her father would not turn back, and the only thing she could do at this time was to do her duty as a daughter.
But she was very reluctant in her heart, otherwise she would not have escaped, so she chose to leave home and go to Beiliang City, and then met the man named Xuanyuan Chen.
Suddenly, Wen Muyan looked stunned, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, she wondered why she thought of Xuanyuan Chen again, just because the other party had won a brilliant victory?
At this time, Wen Shidao's voice came into her ears: "Yan'er, my father wants to ask you to do something."
Wen Muyan's body trembled, and when she turned around, she was as calm as ever, she walked to Wen Shidao's side, and her slender hand slowly touched her father's sideburns full of autumn frost, and combed it carefully.
Feeling her daughter's meekness and kindness, Wen Shidao, who wanted to speak, became hesitant, and his eyes showed a look of struggle.
His daughter, his heart and liver, the treasure he cherishes the most in this life!
However, Wen Shidao can't choose, he is a county guard who seems to outsiders to have real power and unlimited scenery, but he knows very well in his heart that he is a chess piece, and if the chess player thinks he is useless, he can abandon him at any time.
A difficult choice, Wen Muyan didn't want his father to be so distressed.
Father and daughter are connected, even if she doesn't say it, she can guess.
Wen Muyan smiled, her smile was as light as smoke, but it was difficult to hide the bitterness hidden in it, she squatted in front of Wen Shidao, like an obedient and lovely little girl, firmly held her father's hands and said: "A daughter can't help her father too much, but as long as she can do it, she will definitely do it."
Wen Shidao's eyes were moist, he could grovel and do whatever he could, but for this daughter, he couldn't bear it, he didn't want her to be wronged.
Wen Muyan put her head on her father's knee, not wanting Wen Shidao to see the sadness in her eyes, and said softly: "The daughter will go to that person's side, and she will not just become a plaything of the other party, but will make herself the eyes and ears of her father, and strive for the greatest interests for you."
After all, she said what her father wanted in her heart, she was her father's daughter, and she was obliged to sacrifice for him.
Hearing the teacher's words, he cried silently, and faced his daughter without shame.
Outside the study, there was a sound of footsteps, only to see a person push the door in, a person dressed in brocade, fat and large, it was the housekeeper Kangzhuang.
Kang Zhuang was just a housekeeper, but he didn't report it, so he walked in in a grand manner, as if he was the master here.
However, there was no anger on Wen Shidao's face, and he just said lightly: "Steward Kang, I don't know why you came here late at night?" ”
Kang Zhuang didn't answer, looked at Wen Muyan who was sitting upright, bent over and said: "The villain is here to congratulate Miss on escaping from danger, it won't take long to come, there will be a blessing!" ”
Wen Muyan's eyes showed a hint of exhaustion, and he asked softly, "Where is the blessing?" ”
Kang Zhuang raised his head and smiled: "Miss Bingxue is smart, how can she not know where the blessing is?" His smile retracted, and he changed his words and said, "It's just that Miss should not go out and run around in the future, so as not to encounter another disaster." ”
Wen Muyan frowned slightly, Wen Shidao couldn't help but show anger on his face, and snorted: "Steward Kang, the night is dark, and the little girl is going to rest." ”
Kang Zhuang smiled in his eyes and said respectfully: "Then don't disturb the young lady's rest, the villain will retire." After speaking, he withdrew from the study, and never looked at Wen Shidao from beginning to end.
In fact, there was no Wenshidao in his eyes at all, and in the garden during the day, when Wenshidao rolled down the stone steps, he was concerned that he was only doing a trick for Xuanyuan Chen to see.
Kang Zhuang can't prematurely arouse suspicion, at least until his mission is accomplished.
A moment after Kang Zhuang left, Wen Shidao suddenly stood up, slammed a meat hand on the table, and said with hatred on his face: "This dead fat man! ”
In the corner of the study, the same scolding sounded: "Dead fat, dead fat." ”
Following the sound, the parrot in the stone pavilion in the garden was originally in the study, and at this time it was in a shimmering spirit, fluttering its wings, and singing very happily.
Wen Muyan slowly stood up and walked to the birdcage, and she didn't see any movement, the parrot in the birdcage suddenly stopped making a sound, and closed her eyes quietly after a while.
In the study, tranquility was restored.
Wen Muyan looked at the parrot in the birdcage, her flawless face smiled faintly, and when she turned around, the blue ribbon on her bun swayed in the wind, like an elf's tail.
In an instant, Wen Muyan seemed to be incarnated as an elf walking in the world, and only an elf could appease a little beast with aura like a parrot......
