Chapter 185: Broken Mirror Reunion
(The two chapters are sent together, thank you for the headache, and the old ram supports you.) )
Chen Wan sat on the ground in front of Ling Yun, looking at her fiancé who had been separated for six years with a pair of bright eyes.
Under the soft candlelight, the famous teahouse Lan Tingxuan in this Huaihuang Midtown fully expresses the elegant taste of the Jiangnan Chinese people, the architectural layout of the hall on all sides, the tall old locust trees in the small garden separated by high walls around it, the beautiful summer mountain piled up in the west, the steep autumn mountain in the east, and the small pavilion in the clear pond in the north, and the large lattice sandalwood windows on all sides, faintly penetrating into the book, making people feel as if they are in the scenery of the four seasons. Being here not only makes people temporarily dilute the outside of the plug in the cold winter, but also adds a gorgeous and leisurely feeling like the Jin period in the south of the Yangtze River.
Lanting Xuan is furnished with precious red sandalwood, mahogany and other precious furniture, and all furniture systems are in accordance with the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. In the small room, there were mats on the ground, and there were no tables and chairs, Yi Feng and Chen Wan sat on both sides of the chess table in the center of the hall. Chen Wan sat elegantly, but Yi Feng had a natural and leisurely appearance, he did not kneel on the mat with his knees like Chen Wan, and sat on his heels with his hips. Yi Feng sat on the ground with his ass somewhat casually, sitting cross-legged. Chen Wanruliu's thin eyebrows were slightly raised imperceptibly, and she was a little uncomfortable with Yi Feng's rude sitting posture.
Since the Yin Zhou Dynasty, the Han people have formed a kneeling form of kneeling in front of the knees and sitting on the heels with the buttocks, which later became an important part of Confucian etiquette culture. And sit directly on the ground with your hips on your hips and sit with your legs in front of you. Alternatively, sitting cross-legged with the legs crossed, and sitting with the feet hanging down are considered disrespectful and taboo. Although since the end of the Han Dynasty, Hu and Han are mixed. Especially after experiencing the Five Hu Chaohua, after hundreds of years of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Hu Sit or Kei Sitting, etc., which sit on the chair with hanging feet and high feet, has been widely spread among the Han people, and even now in various parts of the north, all kinds of furniture full of Hu Feng such as beds, chairs and stools are popular, but in the eyes of Chen Wan, Yi Feng This kind of Hu sitting is still disrespectful and uncultured.
She couldn't help but think of six years ago. Da Lang at that time was not like this, in the memory preserved in her heart, Da Lang was a Confucian scholar who knew etiquette and elegance. Although they live together in the land of the Hu tribe in the grassland of Saibei, under the teachings of their father, they still retain and abide by the etiquette of the Jiangnan Chinese everywhere.
Ling Yun didn't know that the girl in front of him was thinking about his sitting disrespect. He sat there casually. With a white piece in his hand, he waited for the girl who held the black to go first.
He was waiting for this girl to speak first, facing this girl who suddenly came to the door, although Yi Feng had no idea about the ten years between the ages of two and twelve, he intuitively felt that this woman should be the one who knew it.
However, he did not take the woman directly back to the house of Shuaifu, nor did he drive her away, but invited her to the teahouse opened by a Jiangnan merchant in this Huaihuang City, and he intuitively knew that this woman knew a lot of things. But in the end, she has to be the first to speak.
"The slave's surname is Chen. Mingwan. ”
There was silence in the fine tea room on the second floor, and after a long time, the woman finally spoke, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she reported to herself.
When the name was announced, Chen Wan looked at Yuan Hao, and now his name is Yi Feng. It's a pity that from beginning to end, when Yi Feng heard her name report, his expression did not change at all. She really didn't remember herself, and when she thought of this, she couldn't help but be full of bitterness. has been a childhood sweetheart since she was a child, and she has been taking care of her since she was sensible, and Brother Hao, who has accompanied her, doesn't remember her sister at all.
"Your previous surname was Yuan, your name was Hao!" She said slowly.
"Tell me about my past, it's when I was called Yuan Hao." Yi Feng picked up the hot tea on the table and took a sip. The freshly brewed tequila has a hint of bitterness in its fragrance, and the bitterness rises after the bitterness turns on the tip of the tongue. The owner of this teahouse used to run a high-end teahouse in Yangzhou, Jiangnan, and now they have come to this Huaihuang to open such a teahouse, but they still maintain their elegant taste. They used agave tea, which was still nominally a Gao family industry after it was stir-fried by Yifeng, but in fact it had already been taken over by Yang Guang. With Yang Guang's ability and influence, the tequila and roasted tea method spread all over the world faster than expected, especially in the south where the Chinese people in the south of the Yangtze River are in power, this new roasted tea method, new tea leaves, and new tea drinking methods are even more popular. Although the technical barriers to roasted tea are not strong, it is difficult for the newly fried tea to compete with the dragon tongue that has already occupied the first place in the roasted tea, and the tequila has already established its position as a high-end tea in the green tea brand.
Chen Wan also picked up the teacup and paid for it, this kind of tea had even been paid when she was in Khitan. In the hands of the Khitan leaders, this kind of roasted tea, which is now the most famous in the Central Plains, will be exchanged for ten horses in one hand, and the so-called one will only be a little smaller, packed in a silver box, and one cup of tea can only be brewed about ten cups. The amount of tea you brew is worth a horse. In the past, the good tea of the Central Plains that people bought was just a cake of tea for a sheep, but a pound of tea was enough for twelve cakes.
Savoring the famous tea of the Central Plains on the tip of her tongue, Chen Wan began to tell a passage that often narrates, in her memory, when she was young, she and Yuan Hao listened to him talk about the past many times in front of her father. Now, reunited with Yuan Hao, he doesn't remember anything anymore.
Chen Wan will not forget Jì, and until now, she also remembers the things her father said clearly.
In fact, Mr. Xu is not her father, Mr. Xu is actually her uncle, and Xu Chen is her father's sister. And Yuan Hao is not their son, but what is Yuan Hao's true identity, his uncle has never told Chen Wan.
"Sixteen years ago, my uncle picked up an abandoned baby in the wild in Chang'an, it was a child who was only about two years old, and my uncle saved the child and brought it back to Jiangnan." Chen Wan said this and paused, "Oh, by the way, my uncle still had an identity at that time, he was the prince of Da Chen, and before he went to the Northern Dynasty, he had just married Princess Lechang, the sister of Emperor Da Chen."
When Ling Yun heard this, his brows raised. Da Chen should be the Southern Chen, and the Northern Dynasty is naturally the Sui State. Princess Lechang's husband is her uncle, so Princess Lechang is naturally her aunt. Princess Lechang is the sister of Emperor Nanchen and a princess, so the identity of this woman is about to come out, this girl is either the daughter of Emperor Nanchen, or the prince of Nanchen or even the daughter of the prince of the county. It was calculated that it was in the second year of the emperor's reign, and Nan Chen had not yet destroyed the country, and at this time the emperor of Nan Chen was Chen Shubao, the last emperor of Nan Chen.
What Chen Wan talked about next. It also basically confirmed Ling Yun's speculation.
Chen Wan's aunt is the sister of the queen of Nan Chen, Princess Lechang, and she is married to Xu Deyan, the son of the prince of Nan Chen. Xu Deyan is the grandson of Xu Ling, a great poet and scholar of Southern Chen. His father is also Nan Chen's general, and the Xu family is a famous Chinese family of Nan Chen. After marrying Princess Lechang, the sister of Empress Chen, in the second year of the emperor's reign, he was appointed to Chang'an of the Sui Dynasty. When he came back, he brought back two-year-old Yuan Hao. When he returned to Jinling, it happened that the concubine of Empress Chen gave birth to a daughter, that is, Chen Wan. Seven years later, the Great Sui took Yang Guang, the king of Jin, as the marshal, and a total of more than 90 commanders of the three-way army, leading an army of more than 500,000 to attack Chen in an all-round way.
After the death of the country. The Sui Dynasty's clan and many officials were moved to Chang'an, and Jinling City, the capital of Southern Chen, was bulldozed to the ground.
As the princess of Nan Chen. Princess Lechang's fate, like many princesses of the Chen Dynasty, was included in the palace by Yang Jian, or rewarded to the prince of meritorious service. Among them, Princess Lechang was given to Yang Su, who had made meritorious contributions to Chen, and another sister was rewarded to He Ruobi, another meritorious hero of Chen, and two sisters, Princess Ningyuan and Princess Linchuan, were sent to the Yeting Palace. Even the eldest of the queen's daughters, Princess Guangde, was given to Yang Guang, the king of Jin, and the fifth daughter, Princess Lincheng, was given to Yang Jun, the king of Qin, who served as the marshal of the three roads army during the war against Chen.
Chen Wan is Chen Shubao's sixth daughter, but she escaped this catastrophe.
When Jinling City was broken, many princesses committed suicide, many died of illness on the road, some were filled into the palace or rewarded meritorious heroes, and some disappeared. Chen Wan disappeared at that time, he was rescued by Xu Deyan, but he failed to save his wife and children. It was only possible to divide a bronze mirror into two, and agreed to reunite the broken mirror in the future.
At that time, Xu Deyan escaped the search with Chen Wan, who was only seven years old and had not yet been titled, and Yuan Hao, who was already nine years old, and later Xu Deyan chased all the way to Chang'an with his two children, and learned that his wife had been given to Yang Su.
Ling Yun finally remembered a story called Broken Mirror Reunion, in which Princess Lechang was given to Yang Su, Yang Su liked this Princess Nanchen very much, especially built a Chinese annex for her, and even when this princess refused to let Yang Su touch her body with death, she did not force her. Princess Lechang took out the half of the mirror and asked an old servant to sell it in the market in Chang'an, which finally attracted the attention of Xu Deyan, who came to Chang'an. He took out the other half of the broken mirror, and on the mirror was a poem and gave it to the servant to bring back. After Princess Lechang got the mirror, when she saw the poem, she cried sadly because she couldn't eat or drink. Yang Su later learned that he invited Xu Deyan to Fuzhong to return the Chen family to him, and sent him a sum of money. This incident was regarded as a beautiful talk by the people of Chang'an at that time, and they praised Yang Su for being lenient.
Of course, that's just a story, according to Chen Wan, in fact, after Xu Deyan arrived in Chang'an, he heard that his wife had been given to Yang Su, so he went to sell bronze mirrors outside Yang's mansion every day, and finally let Princess Lechang in the mansion know the news, and then the two got in touch, Xu Deyan sneaked into Yang's mansion on a dark and windy night, rescued his wife, and then took Yuan Hao and Chen Wan away and flew away. However, Yang Su was very angry when he found out about this and sent guards to chase him, Xu Deyan repelled the guards who pursued Yang's mansion, but he was also injured. Later, it happened that the leader of the Khitan Bun tribe, Lu Luo, who had returned to the Khitan from Daxing, was rescued. followed Duluo, hid in the ranks of the Khitans, successfully avoided the follow-up pursuit and interception, and went all the way to the grassland outside the pass to live in seclusion.
Later, they settled in the Khitan, Xu Deyan became a Han teacher and strategist of Duluo, and Chen Wan and Yuan Hao were adopted as righteous children by Xu Deyan and Princess Lechang, and later Chen Wan was promised to Yuan Hao. As a result, six years ago, Yuan Hao disappeared during an attack by the Turks.
Ling Yun took a deep breath, picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it all.
"You don't believe it?"
"I believe it." He said without hesitation. Yi Feng is not a person of this era, he is a time-traveler. But he also knows a lot about the past of this body, and it has basically been determined that his body turned out to be the illegitimate son of Yang Guang and the crown princess, when he was two years old. was angrily killed by the prince, who learned the truth. However, it was not him who died at that time, but was stiffened by Li Daitao, and then ten years later. He appeared in Yanshan and was accepted by Murong Ke as a righteous son until now. There are ten years of memory loss in between, and no one knows about it.
Until now, Chen Wan has supplemented him with the experience that has been missing in the past ten years. It is all reasonable, although how Xu Deyan picked him up back then should be a little hidden. But it doesn't matter. No matter who destroyed the prince's plan and rescued him, and then he was picked up by Xu Deyan. In short, Yang Lin before the age of two, Yuan Hao from the age of two to twelve, and Yi Feng from the age of twelve to eighteen. Until today's Yi Lingyun. It should be the same person.
It's just that he was a little surprised that this experience was too tortuous.
He lived in Chang'an from birth to the age of two, and after he disappeared at the age of two, he was rescued by Xu Deyan, and lived in Nanchen for seven years, and then in Khitan for three years. This also fully explains why he appeared in Yanshan six years ago, when he was captured by the Turks who attacked the Khitan camp, and how he escaped later. also fought with a white tiger, and was rescued by Murong Ke after being killed and injured.
I have to say. Yi Feng's experience is too legendary, and his luck is also very good, he has been rescued countless times, Xu Deyan saved him when he was two years old, Murong Ke saved him when he was twelve years old, and when he was eighteen years old, he was killed by an arrow, and even he Lingyun came back to life through possession.
"When you disappeared, everyone said you were dead, but I didn't believe it, I didn't believe you were dead. I've always believed you're alive, and sure enough, I finally saw you again. ”
Chen Wan had tears on her face, but she smiled.
This is a real feeling, Yi Feng can feel it. "How did you find me?" After six years, Chen Wan came over again, which is indeed a bit strange.
"Speaking of this, it also happens that there must be providence in the dark." Chen Wan said with a smile.
It was indeed a coincidence, the Bayegu people went south, and the Khitan people of the Khitan Gang Mohefu Dahe Luluo soon received a request for help from the Khitan tribe in the north, and the Khitan tribe rushed to the rescue with 1,500 tribal soldiers, but when they arrived, the tribe had been defeated, and they were not in a hurry to save them, but were caught off guard by the Bayegu people, losing hundreds of men and horses, and had to be defeated. After the defeat from the north, the Subian tribe retreated to the east, approaching other Khitan tribes for help, and at the same time, Lu Luo consulted with his subordinates and prepared to send people to Huaihuang to ask for help from the Sui Dynasty. He had already learned through the guò caravan that now in the Huaihuang area on the Sui border, a new governor's mansion has been established, and even Yi Feng, who was once very famous in the green forest of the Tiger League, is now the governor of Wuzhou, and it is said that this Yi Feng is the prince of the current prince who has been left behind by the people, and now he has re-recognized with the royal family, so he has been able to take on important responsibilities, and even said that in the future, he will return to the dynasty to be crowned king and so on.
In the past, Du Luo was skeptical of these news, but at this time, the army was defeated and could not defeat the menacing Baye Guren, so he wanted to find the Sui Dynasty for assistance, and Yi Feng, the governor of Wuzhou, was the closest, so he naturally put his hope on him.
It's just that although Duluo has some business dealings with Huaihuang, he still doesn't have the confidence to borrow rescuers from Huaihuang. When he was in a dilemma, Xu Deyan said that he was fifty percent sure that he could borrow rescuers.
Xu Deyan actually had some doubts in his heart when he heard that Huaihuang had changed Wuzhou to Wuzhou, and that the new governor of Wuzhou was rumored to be the emperor's grandson, especially after hearing that this Wuzhou governor was Yi Feng, he carefully collected Yi Feng's information during this time. When he found out that this imperial grandson suddenly appeared in Yanshan six years ago, and was later rescued by Murong Ke, and then calculate the age, six years ago Murong Ke was ten years old when he adopted Yi Feng as his adopted son, and now he is only less than twenty years old, Xu Deyan already almost believed that this Yi Feng was Yuan Hao, who disappeared six years ago. Yuan Hao six years ago, although he was only twelve, he was already under his teaching, and he was able to write and be martial, especially when he often followed him to fight tigers, so he was very brave. When Murong Ke saw Yi Feng, he had just killed a white tiger, which made him more and more convinced that Yi Feng was Yuan Hao, especially an important evidence, that is, there was a jade pendant on Yuan Hao's body back then, which he had with him when he picked up Yi Feng, and that jade pendant happened to have the word Yi Feng on it.
It's just that over the years, the Khitan and Huaihuang have been far apart, although Yi Feng was famous in the Huaihuang area before, but more often his name is the White Horse Silver Gun Yi Saburo, and there are few people who call Yi Feng. This made him never think that Yuan Hao, who disappeared back then, was not dead, and he never came back, just because he was injured and lost his memory. This is what Xu Deyan never thought of, and it is also the reason why he has not found out that Yuan Hao is still alive and is on the Huaihuang Dam until now.
When Chen Wan heard that Yuan Hao was still alive and was on the dam, she finally couldn't help it anymore, quietly packed her luggage, and left a letter for Xu Deyan when people were not paying attention, and rushed to Huaihuang on horseback. When Chen Wan saw Yuan Hao for the first time, she was sure that what her father said was right, Yi Feng was Yuan Hao, and Yuan Hao was Yi Feng.
Ling Yun frowned, shook his head and sighed, he thought that the Baye Gu people were so arrogant to rob all the way south, maybe the Khitan people would be able to defeat the Baye Gu people, and he would make a move. Unexpectedly, even the most powerful of the ten Khitan tribes had already been defeated. It seems that the time has come for Huaihuang to send troops. (To be continued......)
