Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Six Kings Are Suspicious
When Sa Lingyu came out of the house, she gently closed the door for Xiao Wei, and when she turned around, she saw a person standing outside the fence in the courtyard, and the other party was straight, it was the sixth prince in Old Man He's mouth.
Sa Lingyu's heart sank when he saw him, although the sixth prince was not very old, but his heart was serious, Ling Yu didn't like him, and he was afraid of him, but he was in a high position, and Ling Yu didn't dare to be disrespectful to him. She walked forward quickly and whispered, "Is there something wrong with the sixth prince?" ”
The sixth prince said: "I heard that this Miss Xiao is a friend of Mei Gongzi, and the cause of death of Prime Minister Luan's daughter is involved?" ”
Sa Lingyu said: "Yes." The sixth prince continued to ask, "I heard that she was injured, is it serious?" Ling Yu said: "It's very serious, I re-washed her wound and applied medicine, and now she has fallen asleep." The sixth prince pondered for a moment and asked, "Did she tell you what her relationship with Mei Yuexue was?" ”
Ling Yu looked at him with an unkind expression, hesitated for a moment and said, "It's just an ordinary friend, and the others haven't had time to ask more." She said that she had worked with Brother Mei to take care of the Hidden Dragon Village, and she thought that she was the owner of the village under him. ”
"The owner of the village, the owner of the village? Hmph, it's not our people, nor the people he brought from the capital, but it's just that the owner of the village makes him so confused? The sixth prince held his head high and squinted at Ling Yu with his eyes, and Ling Yu tightened his heart and said: "Ling Yu didn't lie, everything is true." The sixth prince snorted coldly and said, "You don't dare to lie to me, but the emperor is far away, have you brothers and sisters long forgotten the will of our monarch here, and are you too indulgent?" ”
Ling Yu said: "Where is the prince, although our brothers and sisters have no ability, but they still dare not disobey the monarch, after all, if this matter is done, it will be able to exempt our Sa family from their sins, and our brothers and sisters are also for themselves." ”
The sixth prince said: "Then why did the prince of the Great Mu Dynasty do such a ridiculous thing, and you left people without even asking?" This is the time when this king happened to come here today, and when this king didn't meet, how many ridiculous things did you help him do? ”
Ling Yu said: "Sixth Prince, we haven't been in contact with Brother Mei for three years, and we have always done our own business according to the monarch's orders, and we have nothing to do with him, so how can we help him do ridiculous things?" And the courtiers think that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has his own reasons for what to do, if we don't even trust His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and can't help wholeheartedly, then how can our agreement with the Damu Dynasty be realized? ”
The sixth prince said coldly: "What do you think? Are you right? Don't take things for granted, don't make excuses for your negligence, this prince of the Central Plains is too indecisive, I don't worry about him. ”
Ling Yu bowed his head and said: "Lord Wang, relax, not to mention what a proper person His Royal Highness the Prince is, just say that the Luan family bullied his father and the emperor, killed his mother, and almost tortured him to death, supporting the prince with the blood of the Luan family to become the prince, the Luan family is like the sky, and they are about to take away the world of his Mu family. The prince is not a street scoundrel, how could he be careless? ”
The sixth prince said: "You say that I am too careful, but I suspect that you are negligent and indulgent, and you insist on your own words, and you can't explain clearly." I'm not in the mood to mess with you little girl, so let's see! In a few days, Miss Xiao will come and tell me when she is better, and I will take a look at her. ”
Ling Yu agreed, and the sixth prince turned around and left.
Here I have to introduce that the people living on this long grassy slope are not from the Central Plains, but from Yi, and this sixth prince is the brother of the monarch who has recently ascended the throne of Yiguo.
Speaking of the relationship between Yi and Mu, it is a little complicated, Mu is the prime minister's dictatorship, and he wants to take away the Mu family, and the Yi country is because the new emperor's brothers are not harmonious, and the new emperor wants to eradicate dissidents, but at this time, Prime Minister Luan has a relationship with the three princes of the royal family of Yi country. The third prince has always been ambitious, and he was the only prince who could compare with the current monarch of Yiguo. But because the first emperor of Yiguo said that the third prince was too ambitious, he was afraid that he would provoke war for Yiguo, and if he was made to be the monarch, he would definitely ignore the life and death of the people of Yiguo, and launch a war to fulfill his own ambitions, so he did not let him be the monarch.
Therefore, the third prince has been obsessed with Luan Ningchuan, and the two of them are like-minded, so they want to join forces to remove the monarch from the throne on their respective heads, and then Luan Ningchuan is making waves in Damu, and the third prince is disturbing the peace on the side of Yiguo, and it is the power of the army, and the connotation monarch is jealous of him to eradicate him, so that the monarch of Yiguo takes the initiative He is not, and he is not if he does not move, and it is delayed again and again, the third prince is crazy to fan the flames to the minister in private, and he also said that the head is the way, which makes the people of the court and the people of the people in the court scattered. The intrigue between the party and the government, the entire political arena of Yiguo was smoky and chaotic, and later the three princes wanted to incite war on the grounds that Yiguo was overwhelmed by the burden of paying tribute to Damu every year.
However, there is an alliance between Yi and Da Mu, and there is no way to go to war, not to mention that there is nothing overwhelmed, so the monarch of Yi did not agree at first, but the third prince held the military power and conspired with Luan Chengxiang, and there were still many people in the court who supported him, and the lord of Yi really had no way to take him, so he asked Emperor Mu for help.
The two emperors discussed together, Prime Minister Luan and the three princes conspired, and the two of them also had to conspire to have a chance to reverse the stalemate, so the Emperor Mu and the monarch of the Yi country would fight a family, and the monarch of the Yi country pretended to acquiesce to the three princes, and the three princes were even more crazy, so they were negligent, and at the same time, the Yi monarch summoned the trusted courtiers and brothers, and prepared to secretly send a wave of spies to the Mu Dynasty to contain the people of the three princes, so now in the land of the Great Mu State, there are two groups of spies of the Yi Kingdom, one is the Yi Jun, obeying the orders of the Emperor of the Mu State, There is also a group of people who obey Prime Minister Luan's orders.
Therefore, the Sa family also has this sixth prince, who is the monarch of Yi State, and has the same heart as Emperor Damu.
But this sixth prince is still a little apprehensive, he and the current emperor of Yiguo are the same mother, a serious brother, he is the youngest son of the emperor, and his brother has always protected him, so this time he is resolutely on his brother's side.
This is also a matter of concern, he has always been more careful about Mu Guo, although it is cooperation, but Yi and Mu are two countries after all, there has been no shortage of wars in history, and there have been some grievances, he is afraid that Mu Chao will take advantage of no one in their court to serve them, one hundred, so he has been very cautious, always suspecting that his subordinates are not doing well, or that Mu Chao does not care about them at all, and is suspicious in his heart.
However, Ling Yu knew that he was just thinking too much, so he didn't have the same knowledge as him, and when he saw him gone, he returned to his original appearance and ran to cook with a jump.
The sixth prince always felt uneasy, so he sent one of his entourages, took his token, and went to Anning County dressed as an ordinary passer-by, saying that he wanted to inquire about what happened.
At noon, the three brothers of the Sa family came back, and when they heard that the sixth prince had sent someone to Anning County, he pulled Ling Yu and said, "Did the sixth prince ask you something?" He is the most suspicious, have you talked nonsense in front of him? Ling Yu said: "You have wronged me, I have already analyzed it with the sixth prince, and he also admitted that he can't say that I can't do it, you also said that he is suspicious, what can I do, he himself has to doubt it." ”
Sa Feng said: "Let's be careful, I'll go outside and take a look, there's no movement here for the time being, Miss Xiao don't let her go out like that, let's change her outfit, dress up like a kid, oh, the clothes are all bought, but this dress is bigger, you help her change it." Ling Yu said: "Big brother is really careful!" Then I'll thank you for Sister Xiao first! ”
In the few days that Xiao Wei lived in Changcaopo, Ling Yu chopped chicken into minced meat every day, mixed it into millet porridge, and then put in chopped greens to make meat porridge for her to eat, or gave her some goat's milk, or stewed chicken soup, boiled noodles, in short, every day to help her with tonic treatment, Xiao Wei is very grateful for her care.
She knew that she was a prisoner, and she didn't dare to go outside easily, so she nested in the house every day, but fortunately, Ling Yu joked and talked with her, but she didn't feel bored. Ling Yu also showed her her treasured novels, and in this world without mobile phones, computers and televisions, the status of these stories is extremely precious.
Ling Yu knew that she was not in good health, so although the two of them slept together every day, they didn't dare to talk to her too much at night. Until one day, the two of them talked about a sword fairy in the script, Xiao Wei said: "We have a brother in Hidden Dragon Village, who is very good at telling stories, what heroic biographies, talented and beautiful women, gods, ghosts, demons and foxes, he can tell, and he tells it very vividly, he made it up himself, otherwise I will tell you a story of the sword fairy!" ”
Ling Yu was also interested, and the two girls were face to face, and Xiao Wei began to tell her. Although she is not as good as the monkey, the ups and downs of the monkey's story are exciting, and Ling Yu is fascinated by it. After Xiao Wei finished speaking, Ling Yu said with a smile: "I should record this story, make these scripts, take them out and sell them, and earn some silver back." ”
Xiao Wei said with a smile: "We have used this method in our Hidden Dragon Village, and we have also attached a story painting of engraving printing in the book, picking up the most wonderful content, and it is very exquisite, it is a printmade by Mei Yuexue himself, and it is also printed by him." I don't admire him for anything, I admire his skills in these hands, he is very good at painting, he has painted a fan for me, he has painted my portrait, hehe, I can't recognize who is the painting when he paints it beautifully! He wanted to teach me how to draw, but painting was a slow thing, I had to take my time, and I couldn't sit still, unlike him, who sat motionless for two or three hours. I was next to him, helping to polish ink and lay paper, or help him fan a fan, bring him tea and water to chat and relieve boredom. ”
Ling Yu put her head on the edge of her hand, looked at her and said with a smile: "Do you miss him?" ”
At this time, Xiao Wei had nothing to hide, turned over, looked up at the roof and sighed: "I don't know how is going outside now, how is he, has he led Prime Minister Luan back to the capital." I don't know what happened to Zanglong Village, and whether my friend's home in Anning County is okay. ”
Ling Yu said: "Don't worry, Brother Mei is like a god, and he will be fine." ”
