Chapter 54: The Beauty of the Great Stone Country Akso (Part 2, Chapter 7)
Regarding the matter of Qiuyue and Zhang Shuo and Yang Cheng, Yang Mubai was repeatedly entangled, and there was no answer.
She said: "Yang Cheng is now proposing to marry Qiu Yue, and Qiu Yue is not easy to refuse. Zhang Shuo naturally quit by himself because of guilt. Although Qiu Yue was left to choose, in fact, she didn't have a choice. ”
Pei Shengyuan asked puzzledly: "They are childhood sweethearts, and their relationship is naturally not ordinary. Isn't it a match made in heaven? As for Zhang Shuo, he came later, and Qiu Yue doesn't have deep feelings for him, I don't understand what you're worried about? ”
Yang Mubai said: "Is this how feelings are divided? If I press my childhood sweetheart, shouldn't I be with Zhang Shan? I saw that Qiu Yue was not very happy since she promised Yang Cheng to get married. When she and Zhang Shuo were preparing for the wedding, they were very happy and looking forward to it. She wants to do any little thing herself, just for a happy wedding. ”
Pei Shengyuan asked, "Then what is Mu Mu going to do?" ”
Yang Mubai said: "What can I do, I can only let Qiuyue think about it for herself, don't regret it." Although Zhang Shuo hurt Yang Cheng. But he is really good to Qiu Yue, if Qiu Yue also loves him, the people who love each other should be together. Otherwise, neither of them will be happy in the future. ”
Pei Shengyuan asked again: "If Qiu Yue and Zhang Shuo are together, what should Yang Cheng do?" ”
Yang Mubai was asked this time, and after a while, he said, "Yes!" It's a dead knot. It's still the same sentence, Qiu Yue is a man, how good is that! ”
Pei Shengyuan said jokingly: "If Qiu Yue is a man, then the story of the three men is very terrifying, how can it be good?" ”
Yang Mubai was about to burst out on the spot, and Pei Shengyuan immediately said flatteringly: "Okay, okay." So Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng are together, which is the best ending. The damage to the three parties is minimal. Yang Cheng has suffered so much, if Qiu Yue still leaves him, then how can you let him live? I'm afraid he'll never be able to let go. ”
Yang Mubai said: "But love, is this how it is measured? Because it fits, because it makes up. ”
Pei Shengyuan replied: "Then what's not? ”
Yang Mubai said: "Isn't it because two people who love each other are together? There are other ways to make up for mistakes, so why do you have to force it? ”
Pei Shengyuan kissed her lips and said softly: "They will handle it, other people's feelings outsiders can't interfere." Okay, it's always a matter of Yang Cheng and Qiuyue during this time, didn't you say that you want to give birth to a prince for me? ”
Yang Mubai said angrily: "What's the matter with you, you think about this all day long?" ”
Pei Shengyuan said affectionately: "Naturally, it's because I love you." After kissing for a while, he added: "Because my whole person is longing for you, and I especially need you, you listen." Then he picked up Yang Mubai's hand and placed it on the heart of his chest.
Yang Mubai smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I've convinced you." Then she replied to him. This lingering is never tiresome.
Because Yang Cheng had not yet recovered, Qiu Yue proposed that the wedding be extended by a few months. Yang Cheng has no objection, Qiu Yue can agree to marry him, and he is willing to wait for as long as he wants.
Zhang Shuo recuperated from his injuries, and half of Akso came to visit him every day, and every time he made a fuss.
Everyone saw that Qiu Yue had agreed to marry Yang Cheng, so they intended to match him and Akso, so they let her go. After Xu Lang stabbed Zhang Shuo with Yang Cheng's sword, he also forgave Zhang Shuo, after all, they grew up together and worked together, and they had already established a deep revolutionary friendship. It is a brotherhood that has passed the life, and Yang Cheng also said that he forgave Zhang Shuo.
Every time Akso went to find Zhang Shuo, Xu Lang found an excuse to slip away, and Akso pestered Zhang Shuo.
Every day, Akso would prepare medicine and meals to feed Zhang Shuo.
Where Zhang Shuo was willing, she shouted loudly: "Zhang Shuo is afraid of bitterness and refuses to drink medicine, everyone come and take a look!" ”
“……”
If Zhang Shuo didn't eat, she shouted: "Zhang Shuo is a picky eater and refuses to eat, let's come and take a look!" ”
“……”
At this time, Zhang Shuo had to obediently eat the medicine box and meals she fed. He wanted to eat it himself, but Akso wouldn't let him.
Several times I asked the housekeeper to send off guests, and the housekeeper said that Akso was a guest, so there was no reason to pick up guests. Xu Lang also said hello to the housekeeper, that is, Akso made trouble, ignore them.
Zhang Shuo was speechless, he was injured, he couldn't make big moves, and he couldn't hit women, if it was a man, he would have been thrown out a long time ago.
In Dashi, unlike the Central Plains, where girls can also pursue men like boys.
She often chatted with Zhang Shuo, although Zhang Shuo said very little, she was not idle.
Akso: "It's so nice today, let's go out and bask in the sun!" ”
Zhang Shuo: "......"
Akso: "It's a cloudy day, let's go to the theater!" ”
Zhang Shuo: "......"
Akso: "It's not sunny or cloudy today, let's go out and buy something!" ”
Zhang Shuo: "......"
Akso: "The weather is good and bad today, let's go for a walk!" ”
Zhang Shuo: "......"
Akso: "The weather is good today, Zhang Shuo, can you still speak?" ”
Zhang Shuo: "Of course I can speak, but I don't want to talk to you." ”
Akso: "Why don't you talk to me, that Qiuyue girl has dumped you, and you still think about her!" ”
Zhang Shuo: "It's none of your business. ”
Akso: "I'm so beautiful and rich, you still like that Qiuyue girl, may I ask why she is inferior to me?" ”
Zhang Shuo: "It's not as good as anything." ”
Akso: "If she is inferior to me in everything, why do you still like her and not me?" ”
Zhang Shuo: "......"
Zhang Shuo: "Why don't you ask where you are inferior to her?" ”
Akso: "I don't think I'm inferior to hers. You don't look down on me, don't you have eyes. ”
Zhang Shuo: "......"
Zhang Shuo often felt that this was the retribution he suffered for not grasping Yang Cheng and doing the wrong thing at the beginning. Meet such a nemesis.
Akso: "Zhang Shuo, you're well, where are you going?" ”
Zhang Shuo: "I won't tell you. ”
Akso: "It's okay, I'll go with you wherever you go." ”
Zhang Shuo: "How do you know I'm leaving Beijing?" ”
Akso: "Isn't this a small talk?" I'll just ask, you just say, and you'll know. ”
Zhang Shuo: "......"
Conversations like this are happening every day. Zhang Shuo has resisted from the beginning, but now he has accepted it, he can't resist this demon.
When the injury was healed, he slipped away to see how she could catch up with him.
Yang Mubai looked at their relationship and felt that maybe Akso and Zhang Shuo would have a good marriage. turned out that everything was developing in the predetermined direction, so she was done, and she was not easy to manage as an outsider.
In addition, Pei Shengyuan saw that Yang Cheng's injury had healed during this time, and he was even more entangled with her, and she didn't have the energy to think about anything else.
A few days later, Yang Mubai received a letter from Yang's father. It is said that a few days ago there were mountain bandits who ransacked Yang's mansion and all the family members were killed. Yang's father and Yang's mother escaped through a secret passage. I can't do it now, so I can only go to General Zhang's mansion to borrow it and avoid the limelight for the time being.
After Yang Mubai received the letter from home, the whole person was frightened. The Yang family also raised a lot of guards, how could there be mountain bandits who dared to ransack the Yang Mansion. The last time I went to Yecheng, I lost dozens of powerful guards, but it was impossible for any mountain bandits to dare to make trouble in Yang's Mansion.
She couldn't figure out who was behind it.
She thought of Pei Shengyuan and immediately vetoed it. They have such a good relationship now, and Father Yang also resigned and didn't ask about court affairs. It is impossible for Pei Shengyuan to attack the Yang Mansion again.
So apart from Pei Shengyuan, who else would attack the Yang Mansion?
She wanted to tell Pei Shengyuan, but she felt that now was not the time. She wants to figure out the ins and outs of the matter herself, and she is afraid that there will be another mystery in the matter.
Yang Cheng's injuries were all healed, and his martial arts were almost recovered, so she asked Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue to go back to Luoyang to investigate secretly.
She said to Pei Shengyuan: "After all, Yang Cheng and Qiuyue came out of the Yang Mansion, and now that they are getting married, they need to go back to Luoyang to thank Yang's father and Yang's mother." ”
She looked at Pei Shengyuan's face carefully and didn't find any clues. Pei Shengyuan said: "It's all up to you, you can arrange these little things yourself." Then he took out some jewelry gifts from the palace and went back to meet Yang's father and Yang's mother.
Yang Mubai didn't say anything anymore, now that his parents are in Zhang's mansion, they are also safe. When the investigation is clear, it is not too late to tell Pei Shengyuan.
She wanted to test Pei Shengyuan, so she said coquettishly: "I miss my father and mother so much, I'll go back to Luoyang with them, okay?" ”
This back and forth will take a month, where Pei Shengyuan is willing to follow, and immediately denied: "No!" The capital is too far away from Luoyang, and it takes more than a month to go back and forth, so I can't go so long without seeing Mu Mu. After speaking, he kissed Yang Mubai as a scoundrel.
Yang Mubai said: "But I miss my father and mother very much, and I can't be filial piety by their side, they are also old, and they are very worried about their health." This time Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue went back, just enough to protect me. ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "The journey is too far, I can't go together, I'm very worried." I won't go this time, but I'll find a time to go back with you, okay? ”
Then he said: "Last time we said okay, you can go out for seven days at most, can you change the hexagram?" And if I don't see you for more than a month, I'll be crazy, can you bear to see me go crazy? ”
Yang Mubai said with a smile: "I'm going back, so I can't see you go crazy." I won't be unbearable! Besides, the road is far away, with Yang Cheng and Qiuyue, what do you have to worry about? ”
Pei Shengyuan replied: "I can't be by your side, I don't feel at ease." And I really can't go without seeing Mu Mu for more than a month. ”
Nothing out of the ordinary seems to be there. Yang Mubai was faintly uneasy in his heart.
After Zhang Shuo recovered from his injuries, he came to bid farewell to everyone.
Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue were worried about the safety of the Yang Mansion, and after simply saying goodbye to everyone, they also left Beijing and returned to Luoyang.
When Zhang Shuo packed his bags and was about to travel at will, he was summoned by Pei Shengyuan.
Pei Shengyuan said: "Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue hurriedly returned to Luoyang, there must be something wrong with Luoyang Yang Mansion, you go to Luoyang to secretly investigate this matter." You don't have to tell Xu Lang. ”
Zhang Shuo had no choice but to take the order, took dozens of forbidden soldiers to pretend to be secret guards, and left the capital and rushed to Luoyang.
When he arrived in Luoyang, Zhang Shuo found that Yang's mansion had been ransacked, and Yang's father and Yang's mother lived temporarily in General Zhang's mansion.
When Pei Shengyuan received the secret report, his hand was clenched tightly, and the secret report was about to be crushed by him. The muscles on the hands protruded. Immediately go to the secret report and order them to find out the culprit behind it.
Pei Shengyuan thought that during this time, he and Yang Mubai had a stable relationship, and there were no secrets in their hearts. Unexpectedly, Yang Mubai didn't trust him, something happened to Yang Fu, maybe the first object of her suspicion was him.
Such a big thing is never revealed in front of him.
If it weren't for the fact that her temptation was a little obvious that night, there would be no one else who could make her so tempted except for Yang's father and Yang's mother.
Pei Shengyuan was worried about Yang's father and Yang's mother, so he asked Zhang Shuo to investigate secretly.
If it weren't for his love for her, he wouldn't have let Zhang Shuo go to the secret investigation.
Now I know that Yang Mubai still has a deep estrangement from him in his heart. She is reluctant to reveal her heart to herself, and she has problems to carry by herself. Especially the matter of the Yang Mansion. Is she afraid that he will have a conflict with Father Yang, or she doesn't trust him, thinking that he is still guarding Father Yang or hurting Father Yang.
After passing through Yecheng and Rongcheng, Yang Xiangguo did his best to help, and when he learned that he would not have the intention of rebelling, he evacuated the secret guards. Now that something happened to the Yang Mansion, he didn't know at all, which made him very depressed.
Since they left Beijing in Qiuyue, Yang Mubai has been waiting for news. I didn't go out to look for peonies, but waited in the palace.
Pei Shengyuan also deliberately tested Yang Mubai, intentionally or unintentionally asking about Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng's itinerary.
Yang Mubai is always perfunctory.
Pei Shengyuan was even more angry, for so long, they got along more harmoniously than before. He also gave all his love wholeheartedly, and he was kind to Yang Mubai, but he couldn't get her a little trust.
Or in his heart, they all decided that he did it. That's why I kept my mouth shut about him, otherwise it would be much easier to investigate this matter with the help of his strength. Now that only Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng have been sent back, it will definitely take a lot of energy to investigate secretly.
At night, when he kissed Yang Mubai in a daze, he asked, "Mumu, do you have something on your mind?" I see that you are not very happy these days. ”
Yang Mubai replied: "No, it's Yang Cheng and Qiuyue who returned to Luoyang, which reminds me of my father and mother." ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "Well, that's good. If Mu Mu has something on his mind, he must tell me, otherwise I will be distressed. No matter what Mu Mu has, tell me, and I will definitely help you solve it. ”
Yang Mubai said: "Well, I know. I'll tell you something. ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "Well, you can tell me anything, I am your husband." You can do anything for you. ”
Yang Mu said in a low voice: "Hmm." "Yes.
Pei Shengyuan was really angry this time, and wanted her to tell him herself, but she didn't expect her to keep her mouth shut. He kissed her fiercely and begged frantically. Yang Mubai also noticed that something was wrong, so he said, "Your Majesty, what's wrong, has something happened?" ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "It's okay, I just want to admire it very much." May I?. ”
Yang Mu smiled and said, "Are you just asking now?" ”
Pei Shengyuan stopped talking, and tossed Yang Mubai like a storm.
……
Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue came to the Yang Mansion and saw that the trembling was very professional and clean. The body was transported to the county Yayizhuang. The county government should only treat it as an ordinary robbery incident. Ten guards died in the Yang Mansion.
Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue sneaked to Yizhuang and saw the corpse of the guard. They were all sword wounds, and the fatal wounds were poisonous hidden arrows. It's the modus operandi of a professional killer organization. This special Hidden Arrow is the symbol of the Trap Sect. The Trap Sect is an organization that specializes in killing, secretly organized underground, and is mostly set up in many remote mountains and old forests to train killers. When the training is completed, return to the city, hide your identity, and assign tasks when you have them.
They only accept heavy money to kill people, most of them rich people, or petty officials. It was the first time for a court official like Yang Fu to do it.
Since the scale is not too large, the establishment points are scattered, and the government does not particularly care.
Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng found out that it was the Trap Sect that killed people, so they went to check the Trap Sect's branch in Luoyang. Be sure to find out the culprit behind the scenes.
When Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue were there, they were very unhappy with this organization. Because it's not their opponent at all. Last time in Yecheng, Yang Xiangguo sent ninety percent of the guards to protect Yang Mubai, also to show his loyalty. The ones left in the Yang Mansion were all guards with low martial arts. This was also done to allow the emperor to let go of his suspicion of the Yang Mansion.
This move was that Pei Shengyuan let go of his suspicions and withdrew the secret guard, but he didn't expect to be plotted by this kind of little shrimp.
Zhang Shuo knew that Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng would definitely go to the Yang Mansion to check on the situation first. I went to Yizhuang first, and I knew that it was done by the trap first. In order to avoid encountering Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue, he waited for them to leave, and after an hour, he went to check the trap sect.
Princess Yongjing returned to Lan Zhaoguo. Everyone didn't see Yang Cheng, they didn't understand, and they said that they would go back to the imperial capital together to meet the emperor and the queen, and then return to Lan Zhaoguo together. Now only Princess Yongjing has returned, and the queen's face is full of worry.
The shaman asked, "Princess Yongjing, why didn't the concubine return with you?" ”
Princess Yongjing knew that Yang Cheng would not come back in the future, and she was very sad, but she could hide it for a day, so she said: "The horse broke off the medicine in the imperial capital, quit A Furong and then returned to China." ”
The shaman asked, "Then can the horse be returned?" ”
Princess Yongjing replied: "The horse's injuries have healed, and when Furong succeeds in cutting off the medicine, she will set off and return to China." A hibiscus is tenacious, it is not easy to cut off, and the return date is unknown. I'll keep in touch with him and let you know when he's done with it. ”
What else did the shaman and the queen want to ask. Princess Yongjing hurriedly said: "It's a long way to go back to the imperial capital this time, I'm tired, so I'll go and rest first." ”
Everyone had no choice but to give up, and the queen was full of sadness.
Princess Yongjing returned to the room and looked at everything she was familiar with, but there would never be any more Yang Cheng in the future, and she burst into tears.
She looked at the sword that Yang Cheng had used, then walked over, took it on the road, and gently rubbed it.
This sword was originally her saber, but because Yang Cheng fell off the cliff, the saber was lost. She gave her sword to Yang Cheng to use.
It is a fine Longquan sword, which was customized by her father in the Central Plains on her eighteenth birthday. The sword is about four feet long, tough and sharp, rigid and soft, the cold light is pressing, the ornamentation is exquisite, and the hilts on both sides are inlaid with huge sapphires, which are extremely luxurious.
On that day, Yang Cheng took the archery with his bare hands, and Princess Yongjing gave him the sword that night. Yang Cheng picked up the sword, and when he saw such a precious sword, he hurriedly excused himself and said, "Princess Yongjing, this sword is too valuable, I really don't dare to accept it." ”
Princess Yongjing smiled and said, "The sword is a hero, a hero like you is just right for this sword." It's not to avoid giving it to you, you teach me some martial arts every day, do you think it's okay? ”
Yang Cheng replied: "As long as I am in good health, I will do my best to teach you." The sword is no longer needed. ”
Princess Yongjing said: "Then you take the martial arts practice and let it be majestic, just lend it to you, is this okay?" ”
Yang Cheng said: "Then thank you Princess Yongjing for her kindness." After speaking, he took the sword, pulled out the sword, and tried dozens of moves in the room. The moves were sharp and fast, and Princess Yongjing was stunned.
After practicing for a while, Yang Cheng couldn't put it down, repeatedly and carefully, and kept saying: "It's really a good sword, tough and neat." ”
Princess Yongjing said: "Then you can use it to practice martial arts in the future, so that you can teach me." You've done a great job. ”
Yang Cheng said: "If my injuries get better faster, I can practice more every day, but unfortunately now I can only practice for a while a day, and I am too tired." ”
Princess Yongjing said: "It's okay, you can recuperate your injuries here with peace of mind, and when you heal your injuries and practice diligently, your martial arts will definitely be more refined than before." ”
Yang Cheng suddenly said in a low mood: "I'm just afraid that Qiuyue will be in a hurry." ”
Princess Yongjing said: "Then now you can write to her to report her safety, the husband said that there is a great possibility that your body can fully recover, although you still need to use a wheelchair, and when the wound heals, you can start to practice walking." ”
Yang Cheng said: "It's a possibility, but it may not be able to be restored, I'll wait until I recover before returning to the imperial capital, and I won't write to her first." ”
During the day, Yang Cheng sits in a wheelchair and also practices with a sword, but his physique is very poor, and he still needs Furong to relieve the pain, so that his hands often tremble unconsciously, and sometimes the sword is unstable. After practicing dozens of moves regularly, my body was sweating profusely and panting.
Every time Princess Yongjing saw it, she said distressedly: "Yang Cheng, you practice very hard like this, it's better to wait for the injury to heal before practicing!" ”
Yang Cheng would reply: "It's okay, I know my body, I have to practice more, so that I can recover faster." ”
He will always practice until he is close to his physical limit, and then he will stop.
And Princess Yongjing watched from the side, and her heart couldn't stop hurting, Yang Cheng practiced so hard, he just wanted to recover better, so that he could go back to the imperial capital to see Qiuyue. Forever turn a blind eye to your own dedication.
Recalling the past, Princess Yongjing burst into tears. She held the sword in her arms, as if she could hug Yang Cheng.
There was a knock outside the door, she wiped her tears and said, "Come in." ”
Her personal maid came in and said, "Princess, tomorrow the crown prince of Gao Zhiguo will come to our Lan Zhao in person, and you will prepare to receive you." ”
Princess Yongjing asked, "What is he doing here?" Didn't Tianshan Snow Lotus lose money to him last time? ”
The maidservant said: "It's not known yet, he only said that he came for the matter of the snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains, but he was afraid that the person who came would not be good." ”
Princess Yongjing said: "The last deposit and liquidated damages have all been paid, what else do you want?" This thing has long passed, why is it still being recovered? ”
The maidservant said, "Only wait until tomorrow to see what he will do with it." ”
Princess Yongjing said: "It's a big deal, I'll run to the Tianshan Mountains again and find a snow lotus to compensate him." is so entangled and shameless. ”
The maidservant had to tell Princess Yongjing what she heard: "It is said that it is because of the lack of Tianshan Snow Lotus, so that his martial arts practice has not been successful. He is using this as an excuse to blackmail Lan Zhao, and he doesn't know what he wants. ”
Princess Yongjing said angrily: "It's really shameless. Let me see, what will he do tomorrow? ”
