Summer Solstice (11)
What is the situation in Jiangfu, Xue Ling didn't bother to think about it when she went out, she had done this since she was a child, and she really didn't have the heart to care about what the stall in Jiangfu was going to do. What's more, she also guessed that Jiang Fu was reluctant to lose Xue Li's chess, so she wasn't too worried that Jiang Hong would stab herself in the back, at least, it was not time yet.
Even though there was no good result when she met Jiang Yufeng, she was very happy after two thousand taels of silver. What's more, this place can often come to slander a little, and there will be no shortage of money to spend in the future. I went to the money bank and exchanged some scattered silver tickets. When I went out again, I was a little lonely. Of course, Xue Ling didn't worry about food and clothing, and asked for silver, because he wanted to buy another house and separate his living place from Lao Li's group. The people of Jiang Mansion can follow her there, and so can others. I'm afraid that if I don't pay attention to it in the future, everything will be over.
But if you buy a house, you have to live alone.
If you have money in your hands, you can do things quickly. And Xue Ling didn't pick the ground at all, he found the guy from last time with a good car, and he did it in three times and five to two. She hurried to Princess Yongle's mansion in the afternoon, and she didn't have time to take care of it, so she gave the guy a lot of hard money to help him clean it up, and all the things in it were lost.
The man had never seen such a good master, so he nodded again and again, and asked flatteringly: "Miss can you hang a plaque in the courtyard, which is also worthy of your identity." ”
Xue Ling was about to leave, but when he heard this, he stopped again, but he didn't say it directly, but ordered to take a pen and paper, and solemnly wrote the word "Xue" on it.
"Let's hang up the Xue Mansion."
The original Xue Mansion was ransacked by the displaced people after Xue Yihan's conviction, and a few years later, it was even more ruined. Song Bai's original mansion can still be sold, but the Xue family's land is rotten. It's either ants, insects, beasts, or beggars and scoundrels. It's also a wonder in Beijing, and even the people on the side have moved. Xue Ling went to see it a few times and found that it was just like that. She hasn't lived in Beijing for too long, and that house is worse than a dream bubble.
There are too many bad things to think about, and after standing on the street for a while, Xue Ling returned to a smiling face. The emotions came and went quickly, no wonder Jiang Yufeng thought she was acting. I looked at the sun, and I still had time to eat. still climbed the steps of Linjiang Immortal.
Sitting quietly in the private room, calculating Huo Yunsheng's affairs while eating. The disagreement between Wei Long and the Huo family has developed to the point of quarreling in front of hundreds of civil and military officials. It's time to pour some oil. As long as the agitated Wei Long wants to kill Huo Yunsheng and then quickly, the Huo family can be regarded as the real end.
But how to send Huo Yunsheng back, Xue Ling doesn't have much clue yet, and there is still a figure to be sent in this matter. When one person falls, someone else has to take over. If the Huo family's rights in the Imperial Forest Army are gone, Wei Long must put his henchmen in power over.
Therefore, I have to find a way to send a confidant to Wei Long. Xue Ling bit the newly produced ivory vegetable and thought in a daze: I don't know how Li Aniu's sword practice is, how can I get Li Aniu and Huo Yunsheng together?
After dealing with the matter on Princess Yongle's side, I have to go to Li Aniu and talk to him.
In Princess Yongle's mansion, lunch has not yet been withdrawn. Huang Chengxuan, the concubine, felt that the princess was a little abnormal last night, but he only coaxed it carefully, especially in front of people, it was like coaxing a newborn baby.
Princess Yongle seems to have a very bad appetite, she doesn't eat this or that, and the maids don't dare to breathe. Don't think that adults are terrible, adults still have some reason to talk about. Three-year-olds with power are the most terrifying creatures in the world, because you can't communicate with them, and you never think of what they can do.
The Pony Mansion is probably in such a state. After the princess lost her senses, she became a completely ignorant child with a sharp weapon in her hand, and the huge horse mansion was all dolls in her hands, and she didn't know when her arms and legs would be removed. And the horse doesn't care about the princess. That is, the princess doesn't want the jade seal to play, otherwise the concubine may be able to beg the emperor to play for two days. In this way, the life of the subordinate is even more sad, and he trembles every day, lest something go wrong. Even if you don't be a vain ghost, you will have to lose half your life.
"If you don't eat it, you don't eat it, this one doesn't taste good." Princess Yongle took the soup spoon and knocked it on the table.
Huang Chengxuan didn't care whether he would be hurt, first gently pressed Princess Yongle's hand, then slowly took off the spoon and put it aside, signaling the maid to quickly withdraw the dish. He took another plate and said in front of him, "Then let's not eat, the small kitchen is still cooking, take your time." Try this first. ”
Princess Yongle suddenly broke free of her arm from Huang Chengxuan's hand, swept all the dishes, cups and chopsticks in front of her to the ground, and kicked them with her toes. Said: "If you don't eat, you don't want to eat, you don't want to eat." ”
Huang Chengxuan hurriedly supported her, afraid that she would fall off the chair. Said: "Okay, okay, don't eat, let's go back first, if we want to eat, then pass the meal, okay?" ”
Princess Yongle seemed to think for a while, jumped off the chair to leave, and did not forget to point to a bunch of maids and scolded: "It's unpalatable to death." Then he strode towards his dormitory.
Huang Chengxuan followed up and said, "The princess wants to take a nap, and she can't sleep well when she is hungry." ”
The maid behind him silently went to pick up the leftovers, the things were ruined, it was not a problem at all, but fortunately, no one was unlucky today. It is also common for princesses to provoke trouble like this, and it is not strange.
Princess Yongle ignored Huang Chengxuan's questioning behind her, and only after her own bedroom did she say with a cold face: "I don't have much appetite, you go to the palace dining room to get some taro cakes, and you want my mother's concubine to make it in the palace, nothing else." ”
"Yongle ~~~". Huang Chengxuan shouted in embarrassment. It is already taboo to enter the palace to find food, and there is nothing in the dignified horse house. If you have to look for the old man, it will only make people more suspicious. The aunt in the palace seems to be able to see through people's hearts. Every time I encounter it, I am worried that Yongle has not lost his memory, whether he will hide it, and where he dares to take the initiative to move forward.
Of course, Huang Chengxuan knew that Yongle had never lost his memory, but he helped her act in front of the world. As soon as he saw him from afar, he fell in love with the princess. No fame, any family or country, can compare to the smile of the person in his arms. How lucky he is, his father is the uncle of the country, and his aunt is the biological mother of the Son of Heaven. He really married the goddess of Luoshui, and he was in love with him. The good things in the world have all hit his head, and he can't believe it.
It's a pity that King Xiang woke up from a dream without a trace. was born in the Huang family and experienced the matter of seizing the heir, how did he not know what kind of person Wei Long was. How dare he gamble with Yongle.
"Why, you don't dare to go? Are you afraid to see your good aunt, or your own cousin? You were sent by them to spy on me, didn't you, why didn't you just kill me? You killed my father and my eldest brother, what can't you Huang family do? ”
"Yongle"! Huang Chengxuan shouted, he was used to it, he confessed, and admitted these trumped-up accusations. He enjoyed the benefits brought by the Huang family, so he had to bear the disadvantages brought by the Huang family. Yongle doubted himself, it couldn't be more normal. He knew those things, he knew them all. He knew that his grandfather had conspired to help Wei Long usurp the throne, and he knew how his aunt had negotiated to poison the emperor with medicine. But he didn't get involved. He grew up in the hopes of the Huang family, but was abandoned in the end. What is it for, isn't it just for a Yongle princess.
Huang Chengxuan ignored Princess Yongle's resistance and hugged her tightly in his arms, which was both a confession and a reassurance, and said: "Yongle, I don't, I don't." I'll get you whatever you want, wait, I'll go." After he finished speaking, he was still reluctant to throw it away. It took a long time to let go.
It doesn't matter if he goes, even if one day Wei Long knows that Yongle has no amnesia, it doesn't matter. He can go and beg his aunt to let Yongle go away with him, and his aunt hurts herself. She'll agree, just a princess.
"Then why didn't you kill Wei Long for me." Princess Yongle was completely unmoved. She didn't suspect that Huang Chengxuan was lying, but she just couldn't face Huang Chengxuan anymore. In other words, she can't reach Wei Long, she can't reach Concubine Shu, and she has no ability to settle accounts with other people from the Huang family, there is only one Huang Chengxuan, her overwhelming hatred, and only one Huang Chengxuan can bear it indiscriminately.
She is not Xue Ling, Xue Ling has some ability, and always feels that she can get everything back. And Princess Yongle knows that she has no power to return to heaven. Day by day, she sinks into the whirlpool of hatred, hurting others and hurting herself at the same time.
Huang Chengxuan's footsteps paused slightly, and he left without answering Yongle. He can die for Yongle, but he can't let Yongle live well.
However, death is the most useless thing in the world.
Princess Yongle looked at Huang Chengxuan's back, laughing sarcastically, smiling and smiling, with tears in the corners of her eyes. She waited for Xue Ling to wait too quickly, and she couldn't calm down and lie down on the bed for a while. Just sit at the table, drink water, get up and walk around.
Xue Ling originally planned to find a reason to go to the front gate, but after thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn't think of it, so he could only continue to climb over the wall. In broad daylight, there are many people in the Horse Mansion, and this wall is not easy to climb. Therefore, she wandered outside the house for a long time before she found a secluded place to settle down. Walking around inside is also restricted, and when I went to Jiang's house this morning, I didn't have time to change my clothes. When I arrived at Princess Yongle's bedroom, it was naturally a little late.
Xue Ling didn't think anything, this is not coming. Princess Yongle had a thousand feelings in her heart, and she finally grabbed one that seemed to have some ability, for fear that Xue Ling would not come. While I was afraid that Xue Ling would not come, I was a little afraid that Xue Ling would come. There were too many consequences of Qi Qingyi's incident last time. She has no ability to protect herself, if she lets Wei Long know that she has colluded with Xue Yihan's daughter, I am afraid that she will be even more lifeless. I don't know when Xue Ling will come, in case the horse returns soon..... she is waiting so anxiously, Xue Ling is still late.
Therefore, Xue Ling jumped off the beam of the house, and Princess Yongle stood up and said, "Why are you only here now?" ”
Xue Ling shook the dust on her clothes, she was really hard to avoid people, and she tried her best to drill into the corners, causing her to be dirty. said casually: "Where is it late, isn't this afternoon." ”
"You.." Princess Yongle stared outside in a panic, she would wait and wonder why Xue Ling had found her. Recalling the conversation between the two last night, it was obvious that Xue Ling did not come for Qi Qingyi's matter, but paid more attention to Xue Yihan's matter. Also, since she is Xue Yihan's daughter, she can't watch her father die unjustly, so she must be settling accounts with Wei Long, and most likely she wants to assassinate Wei Long? She pretended not to know and stammered, "You... What are you looking for me for? ”
Xue Ling raised his head and glanced at Princess Yongle twice, feeling a little strange. I was kidnapped by myself last night, and I didn't panic like this, but this afternoon, the two made an appointment to meet, so what's there to panic about. She was about to answer. Princess Yongle couldn't hold her breath, took two steps closer, grabbed Xue Ling's hand and whispered, "Are you going to assassinate Wei Long.......aren't you?" She looked at Xue Ling with hope and a little madness in her eyes.
Xue Ling was dumbfounded by this question. She wanted to assassinate Wei Long. The problem is that the dog's brain can also think about the possibility of going to the palace to take the emperor's head. This Princess Yongle's previous methods don't seem to be so stupid.
She pulled Princess Yongle's hand away, and these people grabbed people's clothes in a hurry, which was really disgusting. He whispered: "What nonsense are you talking about, can you let me sit down." ”
Princess Yongle was disappointed when she heard her answer like this. He let go of his hand, paced in despair, and muttered to himself, "So you're not, why aren't you...". Seeing that Xue Ling didn't react, he came over and asked again: "Why don't you go and kill Wei Long, he killed your father, it must be." Carefree is a pretense to frame your father, why don't you kill him?"
Xue Ling felt that if Princess Yongle didn't calm down, the two of them would be completely unable to speak, she really couldn't imagine that there were still people who hated Wei Long more than herself. If you really want to compare, it is also the Xue Song family that is more miserable, and I don't know if Princess Yongle is sick herself.
Xue Ling said: "Can the princess sit down first, let's talk about it, Wei Long will die." ”
"Will die, when will he die? When? Yongle's eyes were torn and his hands were propped up on the table, "Do you know that I am waiting for him to die every day?" He buried my mother, but he didn't tell anyone where she was buried. He's waiting for me, just waiting for me to ask if I can't stand it. Wait until I leak out to kill me. He tortures me every day, when will he die? ”
"If you don't sit down again, you won't see him dead". Yongle's state was far beyond Xue Ling's imagination. She coaxed people, but she didn't know how to appease a person, especially the people of the Wei family, so she had to provoke Princess Yongle with Wei Long.
Sure enough, as soon as Yongle heard her say this, he immediately sat down and said, "Do you have any plans, why did you come to me?"
"Yes, I want you to take me to see Empress Huo Yunwan?"
Princess Yongle's voice became sharp again: "Why are you looking for the queen?" What is your relationship with her? Who are you, exactly. ”
Xue Ling unconsciously covered her ears, and at the same time didn't forget to point her other hand at the door, signaling to Princess Yongle, maybe there is someone outside, no matter how loud her voice is, everyone will die in front of her.
Yongle restrained himself a little at this time, and picked his throat and eyes, which seemed to be very uncomfortable. Continue to ask Xue Ling: "The queen and Wei Long have a deep relationship like the sea, what do you want to do with her." She is from the Huo family, what are you going to do with her? ”。
Watching Yongle say a few words upside down, Xue Ling was ruthless, and poured the tea on the table on Yongle's face. It's too much trouble to talk to a madman, and she will think of the Jiang family's goodness. If the tea can't make Princess Yongle sober, she still has peace in her sleeve.
Princess Yongle was splashed, but she didn't scream. It is estimated that there has never been such a thing, so that she couldn't believe it, and reached out to slowly wipe the water stains from her face, still muttering: "What are you going to do with her"?
She was afraid, she was so afraid, she was terrified, like a bird that could be scared to death by an empty bow. Anyone who stirs the wind thinks that they are sent by the palace people to test themselves.
Otherwise, how could she be more eager than Xue Ling to want Wei Long to die. Both of them have lost everything, but Xue Ling can always see mountains and rivers and see everything, and he doesn't need to live in the tragedy all the time. She can also take Qi Qingfei to ride a horse for ten miles, watch the flowing water of Linjiang Immortals, and forget about new and old hatreds for a while. And Yongle is not, she has been tortured since she came back from the palace. Those fears are always with us.
"If you can't stop, I can give you a few more." Xue Ling said with a cup.
Princess Yongle finally calmed down a little, continued to slowly wipe the water stains on her face, and asked Xue Ling: "What are you looking for the queen to do?" Although the question is the same, the tone is much more normal.
Xue Ling looked at the tea that was going to be poured again, took a sip and said, "The Huo family and Wei Long are suspicious of each other, the queen is a middleman, I have something I want to ask her."
"Mutual suspicion? It was the Huo family who sent Wei Long to the throne. ”
Seeing that Princess Yongle was still a little unhappy, Xue Ling said: "I know you hate Wei Long, but in the whole world, no one should guarantee that he can go to the palace to cut off his head, I am looking for you to say something possible, not to go crazy with you." ”
"Heh... Huh". Princess Yongle laughed a few times self-deprecatingly, and said, "I'm crazy, if you live a life like mine for a few months, I'm afraid you'll be even crazier than me." ”
"Wei Long is not dead, how can I be crazy?" Xue Ling also smiled sarcastically, and touched his wrist with his hand to calm down. said: "I don't want to explain too much to you, as long as you want Wei Long to die." You might as well give me a hand. After all, I don't share the same sky with Wei Long. ”
After speaking, Xue Ling took out the big seal of Xue Yihan and handed it to Princess Yongle, she found this thing when she went back last night and put it on her body. There is no basis for empty words, not to mention that Yongle is suspicious, give her something to see, and it will be more convenient for the two to talk about cooperation.
Princess Yongle took the seal and carefully distinguished it for a long time. This thing is not comparable to a military talisman, and it is difficult to determine the authenticity, after all, private seals have their own merits. But the three big characters of Xue Yihan on it are indeed true, and the material cast is gold, which is only suitable for the senior members of the DPRK and China. After a while, she was still unsure, so she had to return it to Xue Ling and said, "It looks like it's real, but if I'm not mistaken." Former general Xue Yihan should only have a son, when did he have a daughter? ”
When you see someone, you have to explain this problem, Xue Ling is used to it, but he doesn't have a good tone. It's as if she was born with a son.
"The Xue family has no children, and my father is unwilling to continue the string, so he hides my identity. I have a single name, a Ling character. ”
"Are you Xue Ling? It's the one who cut off Jiang Yufeng's leg." Princess Yongle was even more surprised, as a harem woman, she didn't hear more than others, and she shouldn't have too much impression of the name Xue Ling. Then when the first emperor was there, he intended to arrange the marriage between the young master of the Jiang family and her. It's just that the age difference between the two is a little big, and it hasn't been officially mentioned. But after all, the relationship is quite deep, and occasionally some people make fun of Yongle. Later, Jiang Yufeng had an accident, and it had to reach her ears, and the word Xue Ling was like thunder.
Xue Ling thought of Jiang Yufeng's lively appearance, rolled his eyes, and only replied with one word: "Yes." ”
"No wonder, no wonder". No wonder you are safe and sound, I will say, how could Wei Long allow the Xue family and their daughter to survive.
"Does the princess want to take me to the queen?" Xue Ling listened impatiently, and wanted to say that the Xue family still has a son who has survived, and he is standing in front of your good imperial brother, what is the wonder of having a daughter.
Yongle calmed down completely, new things can always make people quickly distinguish attention, she is so crazy, in fact, she is immersed in the shadow of Wei Long every day. There are some things that I just can't think of. If you don't want to, it will die, but if you think about it, he is a Sumeru mustard seed, but it can swell into three mountains and five mountains in your heart, so that you can no longer see anything else.
It's as if Wei Long did test her biological mother, but it stopped there. It's not that he completely believes that Princess Yongle has lost her memory, but he is sure that Princess Yongle is not a threat, even if he remembers, a person who doesn't even dare to recognize the death of his biological mother has the courage to do something? What's more, what can a mere princess do? As for the aftermath of Concubine Yongle, it doesn't matter. He asked the subordinates to bury the princess casually because she needed to recuperate, not as Yongle thought, but she was really dead and had to be used.
Princess Yongle said: "Since you are really Xue Yihan's daughter, I believe that you are definitely not Wei Long's person, I will take you to see Huo Yunwan, but you have to tell me to do something." ”
Xue Ling didn't really want to talk about his plans for the Huo family, but said, "My father didn't die after being convicted, but died many days ago. Huo Yunwan knows the truth, I want to ask. ”
"How do you know this?"
"Why do you have to ask so much, what is the good of knowing more, you just need to understand that I have the same purpose as you."
Princess Yongle was stunned and didn't continue to ask. Three years ago, she was still the innocent princess who didn't know anything about the world, and she didn't see anything wrong with Wei Long's accession to the throne. Naturally, like others, they think that Xue Song and his family deserve it. is also a princess, and her relationship with Wuwu is actually not bad, otherwise she would not have agreed to intercede with Qi Qingyi. In retrospect, it was all a joke. Since there is a high probability that the Xue family was framed by Wei Long. It is really possible that Xue Yihan died early. She looked at Xue Ling and remembered that her mother and concubine were both degenerate, but she felt that the relationship between the two was closer.
Princess Yongle is a few years older than Xue Ling, if it weren't for the absurd days of these few months, she would undoubtedly be a model among everyone's ladies. This will calm down, and it will also be a good golden leaf. She really didn't want to go to the palace, and when she saw Wei Long, she was disgusting and afraid. After falling into the water at the beginning, in order to fight the suspicion of others, I had to endure deliberately walking around the palace and pretending, and even went to the palace of Concubine Shu, which was the room she eavesdropped. However, there have been fewer people recently, who wants to go sadly, but Yongle still said to Xue Ling: "I can take you there, but you have to prepare well, and it will be good in a few days." ”
Xue Ling thought that after finishing Huo Yunsheng's affairs, he had to go to Xianbei, naturally the sooner the better. "Don't take too long, I have other things to deal with." The princess just needs to find a random reason to bring me in as a maid." Seeing that Yongle's face was embarrassed, Xue Ling added another sentence: "The princess doesn't have to be so embarrassed, there are some things that can be done sooner, and it will be better sooner." ”
Princess Yongle clenched her fists, lowered her head and said, "Yes." The sooner Wei Long dies, the sooner it will be better.
"You come to the house early tomorrow, and I will prepare the maid's clothes for you."
"A word is a certainty, the princess's wish comes true". Xue Ling got up to leave.
Yongle raised his head and said, "Xue Ling." Waiting for Xue Ling to look at her, he said slowly: "You said last night that you would help me kill someone." ”
Xue Ling thought it was Wei Long, and felt that Princess Yongle was a bit too much, but she had a request for others, and it was not good to brush off Yongle's intentions, so she slipped out of her peace and said, "Of course, he will definitely die." ”
Unexpectedly, what Princess Yongle said was: "Very good, you killed the businessman in Beijing for me, Su Jiaru of the Su family." ”
Xue Ling smiled and said, "Okay." Without hesitation, he turned around and disappeared from Princess Yongle's sight.
