Chapter 50: The Knot Is Unsolvable

Half of the east courtyard of the Chu Wangfu is the accommodation of the soldiers, the other half is the guest room, the guest room is composed of five or six small courtyards, one of the courtyards, Dou Xianniang is practicing the knife, the cold light is shining, the blade is sharp, a set of knife techniques make it simple and smooth.

Although Dou Xianniang's heart is no longer as sad and angry as yesterday, she is still depressed in her heart, and when she thinks of that negative person, an indescribable resentment will spring up in her heart, as if Luo Shixin has done something that people and gods are angry about.

In fact, this is the subtlety of the human heart, think about it carefully, Luo Shixin was just shot by her on the battlefield, and then captured her alive and released her, and gave her a hundred taels of gold, that's all, strictly speaking, he was kind to her.

But in this kind of relationship between men and women, there is no right or wrong, there is no reason, there is no reason, anyway, Luo Shixin doesn't understand the amorous feelings, and he doesn't give face, that is heinous, at least in Dou Xianniang's heart.

The horizontal knife in Dou Xianniang's hand slashed in all directions, full of grief and anger were melted into the knife technique, if Luo Shixin was in front of her, it seemed that he would be chopped to pieces, of course, if it was really in front of her, it was another matter.

"Good knife technique!" There was a round of applause at the gate of the courtyard, followed by a round of applause.

Dou Xianniang put away the knife, and saw the beautiful and bright Concubine Zhang appear at the gate of the courtyard, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "See Concubine Fang!" ”

"Out of the dust, is she the informant?" Another soft voice next to him asked.

Only then did Dou Xianniang find that Concubine Zhang was followed by a large group of maids and female guards, and another noble lady was surrounded in the middle, dressed simply, without Luo Qi's clothes, but the kind of gentleness and elegance on her body, that kind of calmness, and that kind of beautiful atmosphere, but Dou Xianniang had never seen it.

She was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "She is Dou Xianniang!" ”

Then he introduced to Dou Xianniang, "This is Princess Pei, you should have heard of it!" ”

How could Dou Xianniang, the name of Princess Chu, not hear, it turned out that this noble lady was Princess Pei, who was famous for her virtuous and tolerant nature, and she hurriedly gave a salute, "Minnu Xianniang, see Princess Niangniang." ”

Pei Minqiu smiled slightly, "I saw you at the city gate yesterday morning, and I was thinking, which chivalrous girl is this?" I didn't expect it to be a line girl, I also heard about you and General Luo Shixin. ”

Dou Xianniang's face flushed, what happened to her and Luo Shixin? She was curious to know.

"Let's sit down and talk!"

Pei Minqiu immediately instructed the maids, "Go and move a couch and put it under that pomegranate tree." ”

A pomegranate flower in the yard is blooming, gorgeous and fragrant, Pei Minqiu likes the line girl in front of her very much, her blushing face, youthful, and wearing a big red pomegranate skirt, isn't it a gorgeous pomegranate flower?

Several healthy women rushed away, and in a moment brought two couches, placed them under the pomegranate flowers, and the three of them sat down, and the maids served tea again, and Dou Xianniang held the teacup and said apologetically: "I'm sorry for causing you trouble." ”

Min Qiu smiled, "You are a guest of the dust, you didn't cause me any trouble, and maybe you will be a regular visitor to our house in the future." ”

She asked Chuchen again, "Does Yuanqing know that she is in our mansion?" ”

Izumi shook his head, "I didn't tell him yet. ”

Min Qiu smiled again and said to Dou Xianniang: "The King of Chu once entrusted me to be a matchmaker for General Luo Shixin, at the beginning, I helped him find a family affair, and the woman's conditions were very good in all aspects, but General Luo refused, I felt strange, did he still refuse to get married?" Later, the king of Chu told us that he was in love with a female enemy general, and he shot him an arrow on the battlefield, and he never forgot it in his heart, and this female enemy general was called Dou Xianniang. ”

Dou Xianniang lowered her head in shame, her heart was beating wildly, but a sweetness swelled up, and she whispered after a while: "Then why does he still treat me like this?" ”

"General Luo is the younger brother of the King of Chu, not only a stubborn temper, but also very old-fashioned, once the King of Chu went to Hanoi, let him bring a letter from home and a little thing back, he stood at the gate of the palace, refused to enter the door, we have no way to take him, if you know that he has such a temper, you will not care too much about what he says."

The dust next to him also smiled: "Just now the housekeeper came back to report that someone was asking around the city gate, a woman wearing a black shirt and a black skirt with a knife and a bow, it is estimated that General Luo regretted it in his heart, informant, don't worry about this matter, teach him a lesson, let him change his stinky temper." ”

Dou Xianniang was very grateful in her heart, but she couldn't express her inner emotions in words, so she had to bite her lip and said in a low voice: "The kindness of the princess and the side concubine, Xianniang will remember it in her heart." ”

Pei Minqiu smiled and said nothing, she is not a nosy person, and her status as a princess is also destined that she cannot interfere in other people's private affairs at will.

If Chuchen is out of a nostalgia for the past to help Dou Xianniang, then Pei Minqiu is more realistic, she is actually helping her husband, she knows that her husband attaches great importance to Luo Shixin, if this marriage can be promoted, not only Dou Xianniang will be grateful to herself, but Luo Shixin will also be more loyal to Zhangda, which is an emotional investment. ――

As a princess, she can't just think about the love of her children......

After lunch, Pei Minqiu was discussing with Chuchen in the inner hall about summer escape, she took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I have been to see that Qifeng Villa, it is really a good place, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, there is also a clear spring waterfall, there is a lake of more than ten acres on the mountainside, the water is as clear as jasper, I decided, in the summer, our family will move there to spend the summer, I am not afraid of cold, I am afraid of heat." ”

Hearing this, she asked again: "How far is it from Taiyuan City, is it convenient to live?" ”

"About fifteen miles southwest of Taiyuan City, as for convenience, you think about it, it was originally the palace of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and it was the annex of Yang Liang of the Han Dynasty, of course, it is very good, there are more than 200 pavilions and pavilions, and it is very elegantly built, just like a picture scroll."

Izuchen's brows furrowed slightly, "Eldest sister, I think it's a bit too extravagant for our family to move over like this, so it will be discussed, and now the eldest sister is still advocating simplicity." ”

"Hmmm! Again, I forgot about that and just thought about the heat. ”

Pei Minqiu was reminded of the dust, and she suddenly realized that it was indeed inappropriate for the family to go to a palace to escape the heat in the summer, and more importantly, that palace was not owned by the king of Chu, but the property of the government, even if they paid for it, it was difficult to explain.

"Alright! This incident makes me think about it again, anyway, there is still a period of time, and it really doesn't work, let's just drink iced sour plum soup for the summer. ”

After she finished speaking, the housekeeper's wife ran into the yard in a panic, "Madam! Madam! ”

"Auntie, what's wrong, so flustered?" Min Qiu asked with a smile.

"Madam, Dancai's porter came to report that the woman in the black dress was the woman who the second lady brought back yesterday and led the horse out of the house."

Minqiu and Chuchen were stunned at the same time, they were line girls!

"Where did she say to go?" Izumi asked hurriedly.

She didn't say anything, but it didn't look like she was hanging out, and she had a hat.

Min Qiu immediately stood up, "Let's go!" Take a look at her room. ”……

The courtyard was cleaned, the room was neatly tied, all the items were packed up, even the stationery on the table was placed in place, and there was no mess.

Pei Minqiu and Izuchen walked around the room, and both of them sighed at the same time, the informant is really gone and will not come back.

Pei Minqiu slowly walked to the table, but there was a letter on the table, and on the cover it was written, 'The princess, the side concubine personally opened' The line lady worshipped,.

Pei Minqiu picked up the letter and opened it, and it was full of handwriting like a man.

"Please forgive the line lady for saying goodbye" is full of emotions and difficult to say.

General Luo is the general of the country, the famous general of the three armies, has his own dignity, the line Niang is the daughter of Dou Gong, once the enemy on the battlefield, fought in the soldiers, shot and wounded the bow and arrow, General Luo's heart knot, the line Niang was difficult to solve for a while.

Although marriage needs a matchmaker, it is really natural, if there is a fate with each other, he will have a time to meet again, if there is no fate with each other, I wish General Luo to choose a good mate as soon as possible, start a family, do not mistake it with a line mother, the world is big, and there is a place for the line mother.

The grace of the side concubine's containment, the princess's care, the line mother has nothing to repay, she can only remember it in her heart, and I hope that the two mothers will cherish it, and the line mother will respect it! ,

After reading the letter, Pei Minqiu was slightly moved, "What a Danlie woman, although we have the heart to help her, she has no intention of admitting her feelings." ”

Chuchen's heart was gloomy, she couldn't help but sigh, "Maybe she thinks that the melon that has to be twisted is not sweet, and she is unwilling to use force General Luo to comply, I can understand her distress, alas! It's our self-defeating. ”……

Outside the southern city of Taiyuan, Dou Xianniang restrained the war horse, looking at the city that made her full of hope, but she could only leave helplessly, she also slowly thought about it clearly, and it was more of a wishful thinking between her and Luo Shixin.

Perhaps, he has a good impression of himself, but they have a knot with each other, if they get married like this, it will end up being a different dream in the same bed, this is not the marriage she wants, they all need time to think about it and calm down with each other.

Dou Xianniang reluctantly glanced at the city one last time, bit her lip hard, and whipped the war horse, which galloped south, and she never looked back......

Luo Shixin got the news of the soldiers guarding the city, and rushed to the city gate, he rushed to the head of the city in one breath, ran to the city wall, and eagerly looked for her figure on the official road, but he didn't find it, and the line girl was already far away.

Cheng Yanjin also ran out of breath, and said hurriedly: "Go after her, maybe you can catch up with her!" ”

Luo Shixin shook his head, "Let her go!" She didn't mean to, so why should I force her? ”

After speaking, Nobunaga sighed, his heart full of infinite melancholy.
