Chapter 288: Far Faith
Chen Danzhu happily left the barracks, seeing the beautiful spring scenery and a strong smile on his face.
Zhulin couldn't help but complain: "How can Miss Danzhu trouble the general to help you deliver the letter?" β
Feng Lin had already told him that he would tell him the movements of Qi Kingdom, and let him tell Miss Danzhu in time, and Miss Danzhu's letter to the Third Prince would also be sent in time.
The military road letter soldiers can't even use the biological mother of the third prince, Concubine Xu, and Concubine Xu can only get the movements of the third prince from the emperor.
Chen Danzhu was triumphant: "How can this be called trouble?" My concern about the Three Princes is also a military matter. β
Zhu Lin sneered in his heart, thinking that eating hawthorn in the Shuyun Temple would be such a military event?
Chen Danzhu ignored him, she was right, the safety of the third prince is indeed a military matter, but she is soft-spoken, and she said that she doubted that the third prince's illness was not good, and no one would believe her - in fact, so many people said that it was okay, and she herself didn't believe in herself very much.
At that time, the contact was too short, maybe it was her delusion, or maybe it was because the third prince was in good health, weak, and the symptoms remained.
What she can do is to learn more about the movements of the third prince herself, and let the Iron Mask General pay more attention to him - the Iron Mask General is a suspicious and cautious veteran who will not let go of the slightest change.
Fenglin didn't care whether this was a military event or not, and according to the instructions, he sent a steady stream of the movements of the three princes.
Chen Danzhu sat in the peach blossom view, as if following the three princes all the way, encountering wind and rain, passing through the city, and sleeping in the wilderness.
During this period, she also wrote a letter to the third prince, asking him how he was doing, and the third prince also replied to her, and also attached a medical case to her accompanying imperial doctor.
When this letter was delivered, the three princes also entered the capital of the Qi Kingdom.
Chen Danzhu sat by the spring, held the medical case in front of his eyes to look at the mottled spring light in the forest, and thought that it was the same in the past, in order not to worry her, the third prince directly sent the medical case to her, as if everything had not changed, until he saw that there was a small character at the end of the medical case Ning Ning copied -
Chen Danzhu lowered his head and put down the medical case.
"Miss." Ah Tian cut a basket of wildflowers and ran back, saw Chen Danzhu put down the letter in his hand, and hurriedly pointed to the side, "Does Miss want to write a reply to the third prince?" β
A few cases were laid out on the side of the spring, and there were pen, ink, paper, and inkstones.
Chen Danzhu thought about it, shook his head and nodded: "I won't write it to His Royal Highness, just know that everything is fine with him." She stood up and sat down in front of the case, "It's time to write to my sister." β
Hearing this, Ah Tian was a little worried in her eyes, Miss should be unhappy, she didn't reply to the third prince, how happy she was when she received the reply, and also, writing a letter to the eldest lady, alas, is also a sad thing.
In the past two years, Miss has written letters to Xijing every month, and she has also sent them through the letter soldiers of the Bamboo Forest Military Department, but she has never received a reply.
The letter will definitely not be lost, Ah Tian asked Zhulin, and Zhulin said that the letter was sent directly to the Six Princes' Mansion, and then handed over to the Chen family by the people over there.
That is, the eldest lady does not reply to the young lady, and really does not treat the young lady as a family member.
Ah Tian sat aside with a basket of flowers, her head bowed.
Chen Danzhu smiled and comforted her: "Don't be sad, if my sister doesn't reply, it means that she is doing well." β
Even if she is not doing well, they are reluctant to let her know, because it will definitely make her feel more guilty and worried.
But no matter how bad it is, it won't endanger your life, otherwise the people from the Six Princes' Mansion will definitely reply to the news.
"I can't say that there is no news." Chen Danzhu said again, "The soldier who replied to the letter once said a word. β
The words are very simple, say that the child was born, it is a boy.
Thinking of the child he had never met, although he was Li Liang's widow, but it was also the blood of the Chen family, Ah Tian sighed lightly: "I don't know what the name is." β
The soldier didn't know the child's name, so it shouldn't be the eldest lady who took the initiative to say it, but the soldier himself saw it.
"Without his sister's permission, he can see it casually." Chen Danzhu said with a smile, maybe he hasn't named it yet, after all, this kid doesn't want to do this, "It should be able to walk very steadily, right?" β
Ah Tian counted with her fingers, she accompanied Miss Danzhu when she entered the Chen family, she had never brought a child, and she didn't understand: "It should be possible." "Cheer up and follow the young lady to talk about children, "I don't know what it looks like-"
As soon as the words came out, I almost bit my tongue.
When talking about who the child looks like, it is inevitable to mention the parents, but the father of the child does not mention it.
looks like Li Liang, it's very bad, it doesn't look like Li Liang, and it's also Li Liang's child.
Chen Danzhu smiled: "The children raised by my sister must be raised very well, so I don't need to ask them how they are doing." She wrote a letter, only about how she was doingβbut there seemed to be nothing to write about, and in the end she only wrote a sentence, and the weather was warmer, the flowers were blooming, and she was doing well.
Zhulin stood on the tree and looked at the master and servant sitting by the spring.
Zhang Yao is gone, the third prince is gone, Zhou Xuan is no longer here, Princess Jin Yao is in the deep palace, Miss Liu Wei and Miss Li Lian also have their own things to do, no one dares to set foot in Peach Blossom Mountain, and the two girls are sitting in the quiet mountains, becoming more and more petite and lonely.
Ah Tian stood up and broke the silence of the mountains and forests, and raised his hand to the void with a letter, "Bamboo Forest-"
The sound came with the wind, startling the birds in the forest, and the bamboo forest swept over like birds, and then he carried the letter out like a bird.
Xijing is also in the mood of spring, and after a few spring rains, Taiping Town is shrouded in a new green.
The Son of Heaven has moved away, and after the initial panic and depression, the people should live how they should live, and the town has returned to its former liveliness.
A man dressed as a scribe rode a donkey and swayed through to a grocery store, stopping to point to a windmill of multicolored paper hula in the wind: "Man, thisβ"
The shopkeeper glanced at him, and saw that this person was not good-looking, and he was dressed simply, so he said lazily: "One money, one for us, this is our ancestral craftββ"
The scribe interrupted him with a smile: "I want this one." β
He turned out to be a rich man! The shopkeeper suddenly stood up straight, put on a smile and stretched his voice, "Okay, guest officer, wait a minute, the small one will help you take it down." β
The scribe did not entangle with the shopkeeper who had been in front of him, but gave the money with a smile and a hula in his arms, and walked forward with a twenty or thirty windmills.
The scribe passed through the town and continued outward, leaving the main road and walking onto the path, and soon came to a small village, where the children at the head of the village cheered and jumped with joy, some clapped their hands at the windmill, some blew on the windmill, and the quiet village became lively for a moment.
The scribe took down the windmill "one by one", and the children suddenly blew up the nest, and the chickens and ducks squawed up, and the scribe sent the windmill down with a smile, leaving only one, and then continued to move forward.
For a while, the village was full of children running around with windmills and laughing, and the villagers saw that they all smiled at the scribe, "Doctor Yuan is here." "Dr. Yuan broke the bank."
The scribe smiled: "Don't break the fee, don't break the fee, come and see the children, they are all children." β
The villagers laughed even more happily, and some people took the initiative to say, "That kid from the Chen family was still playing outside the door just now." β
The scribe smiled and thanked him and walked over, and the villagers stood on the side of the road and whispered, "Doctor Yuan is really a good man." "The child of the Chen family is really lucky, and when he had a difficult birth, he met Dr. Yuan passing by." "I often visit back, and the child is well raised." "Not to mention that child, I haven't been sick for more than a year because of the prescription prescribed by Dr. Yuan."
With the villagers talking, the scribe walked to a low house, the door was ajar, and the sound of cooing and feeding chickens could be heard in the courtyard.
A girl wrapped in a headscarf and carrying a wooden basin was surrounded by a flock of chickens, and when she heard the movement outside the door, she turned her head and immediately shouted happily: "Doctor Yuan!" Without waiting for Dr. Yuan to greet with a smile, she turned her head to look inside: "Miss, Dr. Yuan is here." β
The scribe threw the donkey outside the door and carried the windmill frame inside, and on the other side of the courtyard, a woman bent down to pick up the child in the wooden cart, then turned around, and gave a grateful salute: "Doctor Yuan." His gaze fell on the windmill in his hand, "You're breaking the bank again." β
The scribe laughed, took the windmill down, and handed it to the woman who was feeding the chickens, "Fluttershy, take it for firewood." β
Fluttershy happily takes it in response.
"Doctor Yuan, sit down." Danyan points to the flower stand in the courtyard, and then turns her head to call Fluttershy to pour tea, but Fluttershy has a wooden basin and a wooden shelf in her handβ
"Come on." The scribe had already stretched out his hand, "Let me see if little Bao'er has gained weight again." β
The child in Chen Danyan's arms is carved in pink, and her eyes are only staring at the windmill.
When he saw the scribe reaching out to take it, he let out a babbling cry.
"Xiao Bao'er was willing to speak when she saw Dr. Yuan." Fluttershy says happily.
Chen Danyan handed the child to the scribe and said with a smile: "I'll go and pour tea." With that, she goes inside, and Fluttershy prepares her things.
The scribe held the child in one hand and the windmill in the other, first blowing with his mouth, and then simply trotting in the courtyard, the windmill whirled, the children quacked and laughed, and the quiet courtyard became very lively.
Chen Danyan took the tea and put it on the stone table, invited him to drink tea, and then took the child back into her arms.
"Miss Danyan has raised her children well." The scribe sat down, raised his sleeve to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead, and picked up the tea, "Better than many full-term children, as for speaking, don't worry, his tongue is fine, some children just speak late." β
Chen Danyan hugged the child and nodded: "I'm not in a hurry, even if he can't speak, it's fine." β
"It's better to think like that." The scribe praised.
Fluttershy also came over at this time, "With Mr. Yuan here, we are really not in a hurry, and thanks to Mr. Yuan, the people in the village are treating us better and better." β
As an outsider, they are old and young, and they are inevitably excluded by the villagers.
Mr. Yuan smiled: "The hard work of raising your hands, the hard work of your hands." Saying this, he took out a letter from his sleeve, and without speaking, put the letter on the stone table, then shook his sleeve and stood up, "I will take my leave, and go around the village to see which villager wants to see a doctor, so that I can earn back the money for the windmill." β
Danyan and Fluttershy both laughed, but instead of holding him back, they took the child out of the house, and when they saw the scribe leaving, the child who was concentrating on playing with the windmill raised his head and waved at him.
The scribe was even happier, and waved his hand to the child: "See you next time." β
He walked away slowly, and within a few steps he was surrounded by the villagers who had been waiting for him for a long time, Chen Danyan withdrew his gaze and retreated into the courtyard, Fluttershy followed, took the child from her, and Chen Danyan walked back to the stone table and sat down, picked up the letter and opened it.
"What did the second miss say?" Fluttershy can't help but ask, "Is she okay?" β
There weren't many words on a piece of paper, Chen Danyan quickly finished reading it, and said, "I didn't say anything, I said it very well." β
"How can it be so good?" Fluttershy says, "Once in a while I go to town, I hear rumors about Miss Two, and those rumorsβ"
The rumors weren't good, and she stopped and didn't say anything more.
Chen Danyan's expression was calm: "It doesn't matter if it's good or not, she can still have so many bad rumors, what she has explained is really good, if one day, there are no rumors, no news, then it is called bad." β
That's why Fluttershy asks in a low voice, "Miss, why don't you reply to Miss Two?" β
Chen Danyan folded the letter and put it away, and said: "There is nothing to say, saying that we are doing well, she doesn't believe it, saying that we are not doing well, what can we do, let her be anxious and worried." β
Just like Chen Danzhu always said in her letters, do they really think she is doing well?
She's not doing well, and they can't help, so what's the use of talking about it.
Fluttershy sighed, "I think Miss Danzhu is alone, and it's pitiful." β
Chen Danyan smiled: "Don't be afraid, we are all here, she knows, she is not alone in her heart." Saying that, he stretched out his hand, "Come, Chen Xiaoyuan, come to my mother's arms." β
The child did not react much to this call, and was sent over obediently, playing with the windmill intently.
Chen Danyan hugged him and played with him on the windmill, "What color is this?" "Blow it." Speak in a low and fragmented voice.
Fluttershy looked at the picture of the mother and son under the trellis, and sighed in her heart, yes, it has not been easy for anyone in the past two years, although they have not had any news for the second lady, but they have also encountered very dangerous times, such as when Chen Danyan gave birth to this child, the mother and son almost died.
