Chapter Seventy-Five: The Beauty of the City-State of Iu (Part 2, Chapter 29)
couldn't stand Yang Mubai's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Pei Shengyuan finally agreed to take Yang Mubai out to play.
Pei Shengyuan didn't let her walk on the ground, for fear that she would freeze. She took a chair that could be lifted, put a thick mattress underneath it, and dressed her in a thick velvet garment and a mink coat over it. Also wrap a thick blanket around her. Take another hot pot in your hand and place it on your stomach to avoid catching a cold.
At this time, Yang Mubai finally couldn't help it and said: "Your Majesty, I'm going to suffocate to death, I'm going to sweat all over my body, I'm about to be steamed, don't wrap it." I'm already warm. ”
Pei Shengyuan saw that she was indeed sweating a little, so he hurriedly let the palace people hold the blanket and followed behind. The front and back are lit with stoves and lanterns.
He walked beside him and said to Yang Mubai: "Mumu, if you feel cold, just tell me." I'll put a blanket over you. ”
Yang Mubai said: "I'm not cold, I only feel hot now." If I go out this way, I'm afraid I'll die of heat. ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "Aren't you in confinement? Originally, you couldn't come out to play, but now that you are allowed to come out to play, you must do a good job of keeping warm. Otherwise, it will not be good to fall into the root of the disease. ”
Yang Mubai said: "Okay, listen to you, we set off." ”
Tonight, the moon is bright. In the past ten days, Yang Mubai can only look through the window to see the beautiful scenery outside, the angle is limited, and he sees very little. But she knew that the scenery was beautiful, beautiful. Seeing only a small part of it makes people can't take their eyes off it.
Now, as far as the eye can see, the scenery is truly stunning. The moonlight shines on the continuous mountains, and there is still a lot of snow on the mountains, which looks crystal clear under the moonlight. There are still endless clouds floating on the mountain. Clearly visible in the moonlight, the summit of the mountain pierces through the clouds, which move slowly.
Such majestic mountains, such bright moonlight, such low and infinitely close clouds. Immerse yourself in it, as if you are in a fairyland.
Yang Mubai clapped his hands excitedly and shouted, "It's so beautiful!" I would like to stay here forever. Then he said to Pei Shengyuan: "Let's live here, right?" ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "That's not good, we'll leave for the palace in two days." There's so much more to do in the palace! ”
Yang Mu said disappointedly: "Will you go back so soon?" Can I play for a few more days? "She hasn't gone out properly yet, and she used to be careful every day in the Dark Nether Sect, and she didn't have the heart to enjoy the beauty here. It's a shame to see such a beautiful view now that you're going to be gone in two days.
Pei Shengyuan said: "When we have time in the future, we will come back." We will train the emperor well, and when he ascends the throne, we will go everywhere. ”
Yang Mubai was not so easy to fool, and retorted: "Then it will be at least a few decades later, you don't lie to me." ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "If you cultivate well, more than ten years will be enough. With so many loyal ministers and good generals, you can play with peace of mind at that time. ”
Yang Mubai finally compromised and said, "Okay, then take advantage of the present to enjoy the beautiful scenery!" Yang Mubai watched the beautiful scenery carefully and had no distractions. And Pei Shengyuan, after watching the beautiful scenery for a while, stared at Yang Mubai.
Then, I silently said in my heart: I have seen so many beautiful scenery, no matter how beautiful it is, it is not as beautiful as yours. In my heart, you are the most beautiful view.
After a while, Pei Shengyuan said, "Let's go back!" You're still in confinement, but you can't blow the wind for too long. ”
Where is Yang Mubai willing, and said coquettishly: "It's only been out for a while!" Pei Shengyuan, you can help me build a snowman! I don't touch the snow myself, you help me pile it. ”
Pei Shengyuan took the stove and put it in her hand. Then cover with a blanket. I built a snowman next to me.
Yang Mubai only asked him to build one snowman, but he didn't expect that Pei Shengyuan built four snowmen. Two big ones, two small ones. Yang Mubai instantly understood his intentions. He was a family of four.
After building the snowman, Pei Shengyuan was sweating a little. Then he pointed to the snowmen and said one by one: "Mu Mu, this is you, this is me." That one is the prince, and that one is the princess. Our family will be happy forever. ”
Yang Mubai nodded vigorously and said firmly: "Yes, I believe we will be happy." ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "Then go back now!" You've been out for too long, and you really can't blow the wind for too long. ”
Yang Mubai nodded and said, "Okay." Then open your hands. Pei Shengyuan walked over and carried her to the tent.
Since the prince recovered from his illness a few days ago, they have been carefully taking care of and paying attention to the guidance of their husband in the past few days. The princess and princess did not feel unwell anymore, and the amount of food gradually increased. His physique was also a little better, which made Yang Mubai very happy.
Every day when they were awake, Yang Mubai held them in his arms, laughing and teasing them. I don't know if the child has a sense, and when they saw Yang Mubai's happy and hearty laughter, they also grinned.
Often because of this, Pei Shengyuan said jealously: "Mu Mu, you don't spend all day with the children, or ask about Qiuyue, don't you care about me?" ”
Yang Mubai was speechless, they soaked together every day, what else did they want. But the words of the Son of Heaven are not easy to refute, so he can only joke with a smile: "Aren't we together day and night?" Are you feeling unwell somewhere for me to care? ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "Yes, I am very uncomfortable. ”
Yang Mubai asked nervously: "What's uncomfortable, hurry up and find a husband to come over and take a look." ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "I don't need to find a husband, it's because I'm uncomfortable." Mu Mu, it's good if you spend more time with me. ”
Yang Mubai was speechless, and said comfortingly: "The child is still young, and he must be taken care of." Qiuyue is her life's event, of course I have to go all out, you are jealous of this? You're a child. ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "What I care about is that you are the first in your heart, and it is no longer me." Now, I don't even know where it is? ”
Yang Mubai pulled him over, kissed him on the lips, kissed him deeply, and then said, "Fool, of course I love you the most!" ”
Pei Shengyuan couldn't pretend to be able to put it down, laughed out loud, and said, "I love you the most." ”
Yang Mubai: "......"
The next day, Pei Shengyuan asked Xu Lang and Zhang Shuo to go hunting.
He asked Xu Lang in advance and said, "Xu Lang, do you know what happened between Zhang Shuo and Akso?" Are they together? ”
Xu Lang: "......" thought to himself: Is the emperor so gossip now? Whether Zhang Shuo is with Akso or not, he is not sure!
He replied: "It is said to be true, and Weichen has only heard about it." ”
Pei Shengyuan asked again: "Then I will go hunting, you ask him to see if he is really with Akso." ”
Xu Lang: "Your Majesty, why do you ask that" thought to himself: How did he ask, it seemed that he was a big man and very gossipy.
Pei Shengyuan said: "Don't ask so much, just do what I want." "Look, it's good to be an emperor! Even asking a gossip can be enforced.
Xu Lang: "......" thought to himself: If you gossip and don't ask yourself, let me take the blame!
Pei Shengyuan added: "You just said that you asked yourself, and I don't dare to lie to him, but don't let him know that I am going to ask." ”
Xu Lang: "......" thought to himself: Sure enough, you are still insidious, you just listen to the gossip and let me take the blame and clean myself up, it's really insidious!
Who made him the emperor, he can't complain yet. had to say: "Yes, Weichen understands." ”
When Zhang Shuo came, they went hunting. On the way, Pei Shengyuan glanced at Xu Lang. Xu Lang understood, and immediately patted Zhang Shuo and asked, "Zhang Shuo, I heard that you are with Akso, is it true?" ”
Afraid that he would tell a lie, he added: "The emperor is here, you can't lie, otherwise it will be a crime of deception." ”
Zhang Shuo was speechless, when did this Xu Lang gossip so much, in order to ask a gossip, he also used the emperor to press him, which is really enough.
Zhang Shuo replied truthfully: "Not yet." ”
Hearing this, the stone in Pei Shengyuan's heart finally fell, since they were not together, then Qiuyue still had a chance.
Unexpectedly, after a while, Zhang Shuo replied again: "Didn't you all think that I was quite compatible with her before?" After going back, I have more contact and contact, and I may really like it, so we will be together. ”
Pei Shengyuan: "......"
Pei Shengyuan glanced at Xu Lang again and asked him to ask the next question.
Xu Lang asked again: "Zhang Shuo, do you like that Akso?" I think it's okay, although I thought she was good before, but she wasn't from the imperial capital after all, and it was inconvenient to be so far away. What do you think? Or forget it! ”
Zhang Shuo said: "Wouldn't it be okay to let her move to the imperial capital far away?" What's the problem. “
Xu Lang asked again: "So you really like her?" ”
Zhang Shuo replied: "So, wait until you go back to the capital to see everywhere." Aren't feelings cultivated slowly? I used to be busy investigating the whereabouts of the queen and didn't have time to get along. Now that I think about it, she is also quite good, such a beautiful and funny girl, it is difficult to dislike. ”
Pei Shengyuan gave Xu Lang another look.
Xu Lang asked again: "Then what about Qiu Yue, do you still love her?" ”
This time Zhang Shuo was silent.
Xu Lang asked, "Why don't you speak?" ”
Zhang Shuo said: "Xu Lang, what's going on with you today?" Why do you keep asking all this? I don't want to say. Then he went away angrily.
It was winter now, and there were few prey, so after walking a long way, I saw a few rock sheep, and I went back after shooting three or four.
After going back, Pei Shengyuan reported the situation to Yang Mubai.
After Yang Mubai heard this, he just shook his head and sighed: "What is the situation between them, they will talk about it together, they will be uncertain for a while, and they will say that they have to look everywhere." ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "Let them deal with it themselves!" The more others interfere in emotional matters, the more self-defeating and unhelpful they may be. “
Yang Mubai said: "Then how can it be done? If you don't help them, what a pity if a lover misses it! I feel that Qiuyue still likes Zhang Shuo's. Zhang Shuo can't empathize so quickly, right? ”
Pei Shengyuan pondered for a while and asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
Yang Mubai said: "Aren't I thinking? If there is a way, it is still used here to sigh? ”
Pei Shengyuan said comfortingly: "Okay! When things are at the worst they will mend. If they have a deep relationship, they will naturally come together. ”
Yang Mubai disagreed with this statement very much, and said angrily: "Don't you know that things are man-made? How many people have missed out on marriage because of misunderstanding. If they love each other, how can they be separated because of misunderstandings, how sorry. ”
Yang Mubai then asked, "Did you say that Zhang Shuo still didn't know about Qiuyue and Yang Chengbai?" ”
Pei Shengyuan suddenly realized, and then said very doggedly: "It's still Mu Mu smart." I'll get the news out tomorrow. ”
Yang Mubai said disdainfully: "You just don't care at all. ”
Pei Shengyuan hugged Yang Mubai and said softly: "With Mumu such an enthusiastic and intelligent matchmaker, what else do I need to do?" Am I not useless? ”
Then he said: "Then Qiu Yue and Zhang Shuo's matter is solved, do you want to go out for a walk, I saw that you had a lot of fun yesterday." ”
Hearing this, Yang Mubai said happily: "Okay, let's go!" Let's take a look at another place today. ”
In the city-state of Iou, the sunset and sunrise were later than the Emperor's. The sun rises at the time of the hour, and the sun sets at the time of the sunset.
Today, Yang Mubai wants to see the sunset and sunrise. Tomorrow they will leave for the capital.
Just as he was about to go to see the sunset, the city lord of Yiwu came over and said that he was going to feast Pei Shengyuan and the queen mother, saying that he would give them a feast.
Pei Shengyuan went, Yang Mubai said that he was unwell and it was inconvenient to travel, so he waited for Pei Shengyuan in the tent.
During the time of the Yiwu city-state, the city lord of Yiwu invited Pei Shengyuan and them every day, Pei Shengyuan only came once on the first day, and never came again, and they were all in the camp to accompany Yang Mubai.
Today is a feast, so I came. Also accompanied by Zhang Shan, Yang Cheng, Qiu Yue, Zhang Shuo, Xu Lang and Princess Yongjing.
The lord of Iwu Castle prepared a grand banquet and invited dozens of kabuki. The leader is stunning and the dancing skills are exquisite. When dancing, he kept approaching Pei Shengyuan.
Everyone knew in their hearts that this was going to be given to Pei Shengyuan.
With a status like Pei Shengyuan, countless beauties of all kinds are sent to him every year for him to choose. He didn't ask for it, and it was the same this time. In order to avoid embarrassment, Pei Shengyuan raised his glass and said to everyone: "Tomorrow we will leave for Beijing to return to Beijing, these days have been bothering the city lord a lot." I drank this glass of wine first, and the queen mother was still waiting for me in the tent, and then left the table first, please enjoy it slowly. ”
Then he poured another glass of wine, saluted the city lord, and said, "City lord, thank you for your hospitality." ”
After drinking, it will slip away. Originally, I thought that I would meet Zhang Shuo tonight and tell him about Qiuyue, but now it seems that I only have to wait for a few days.
Everyone who came with Pei Sheng knew that he didn't dare, after all, Yang Mubai was not a vegetarian.
The banquet continued, and the stunning dancer finally entered Zhang Shan's tent.
Pei Shengyuan wrapped Yang Mubai tightly as usual. Then let the palace people bring the chair, let Yang Mubai lie on the chair, and cover it with a thick blanket. The weather was sunny, and it was a rare day in winter. The sun shines on the city-state of Iou, and the entire city-state is bathed in a soft golden light. On the snowy mountains, it seems that the snow has melted a little under the sun, but there is still a thick layer of snow on the mountains. In some places where there is little snow, there is a gentle flow of snow.
The mountains seem to be plated with a pale gold, different from any other time, each with its own beauty.
People have smiles on their faces, and the sun shines on everyone's faces, dyeing a faint flush, and bringing a trace of warmth, such a tranquility and peace.
Pei Shengyuan sat on a chair next to him, holding Yang Mubai's hand under the blanket. Such an indifferent and peaceful time really makes people want to never leave for the rest of their lives.
After half an hour, the sun turned crimson and the surrounding clouds turned orange. The clouds in the sky are dyed with cinnabar, and they have a different kind of beauty.
After a while, the remnant sun faded, drawing a perfect stroke for today. It is no wonder that a poet said: The sunset is infinitely good, but it is just near dusk.
Watching the sky darken in an instant, people will feel uncomfortable for a moment, and they can't help but feel a little sad. Pei Shengyuan squeezed Yang Mubai's hand and said, "Mumu, let's go back, tomorrow, we can see the sunrise." ”
Yang Mubai nodded and said: "This is different from the beauty of the capital, the capital is lively and prosperous, and the traffic is busy. The city-state of Iou, on the other hand, is quiet and peaceful, and it is easy to calm down here. ”
Pei Shengyuan said: "Mu Mu, if you like to be quiet, you will set up a courtyard in the suburbs in the future, and you can often live in the courtyard." ”
Yang Mubai said with a smile: "How can it be like a golden house." ”
Pei Shengyuan: "......"
On the second day.
The packing for the departure back to the palace has been prepared. Pei Shengyuan and Yang Mubai sat on the tower of the city-state of Yiwu, waiting for the sunrise.
At this time, there is no moon and it is dark all around. The palace people lit the lantern, and from a distance, it looked like a small red apple.
Only the snow looms on the mountains in the distance.
Suddenly, the clouds in the east first brightened. The light source is getting stronger and stronger. Everything around is clearly visible. Then I saw the huge sun slowly rising from the mountains, and the earth was awakened and came alive in an instant.
If the sunset is the loss after full of joy, then the sunrise is the power of infinite hope after waiting patiently. It was the beginning of a day, a new journey, a new hope.
Everything is shrouded in sunlight, and life begins to revivenation. The snow on the mountains is still as beautiful as a picture, which is a gift from heaven.
The breeze blows, and the surface of the lake sparkles, like a crumpled mirror.
Yang Mubai felt all this, and felt that the blood in his body began to boil, and his body was full of strength.
Pei Shengyuan carried her to the carriage, and then said: "This kind of tranquility and tranquility will continue forever. I'll protect it. ”
He understood Yang Mubai, and Yang Mubai also understood the meaning of Pei Shengyuan's words.
He said: I will protect the imperial capital and will not let them fall into turmoil. The imperial capital is in his hands, calm and peaceful, prosperous and powerful.
Yang Mubai held Pei Shengyuan's hand back, held it tightly, and silently added in his heart: You guard the imperial capital, and I guard you.
Zhang Shuo saw that they were so affectionate, and his eyes were full of envy. Xu Lang was next to him, poked him with his hand, and said, "The sunrise here is so beautiful, don't you say?" It would be nice if the peony was here, it's a pity, I'll accompany you to see this beautiful scenery now. ”
Zhang Shuo said coldly: "Because of you, this scenery is not beautiful, and it is also dyed with a layer of obscenity." ”
Xu Lang said indignantly: "Where am I obscene? Don't talk nonsense. ”
Zhang Shuo said: "Look at you like that, it's not obscene enough, if you ask the people next to you, you're almost disgusted to death." Are you thinking of something unclean again? ”
Xu Lang said: "Zhang Shuo, are you looking for a draw?" I think my wife and daughter, why are they lewd? You're a thousand-year-old bachelor, you're disgusting. Such an old Boy Scout, he laughs to death when he says it. ”
Watching them bickering, the people next to them couldn't hold back their laughter. In the last round, I think Xu Lang won.
Zhang Shuo choked back: "Thinking that his wife has such an obscene expression on her face, it's really bitter for Peony, who is she marrying." ”
Xu Lang said: "I miss my beloved wife, and a lonely person like you won't understand it at all." It's like playing the piano to a cow. ”
Zhang Shuo said: "Even if I miss someone, I won't have such an ugly expression. ”
Xu Lang hurriedly asked, "Then who are you missing now?" I see you have a suspicious expression. ”
Zhang Shuo said: "I don't miss anyone. Not everyone is as boring as you are. ”
Xu Lang snorted earnestly and said, "If you can't eat grapes, it means that grapes are sour." Zhang Shuo, you are simply a dead duck with a hard mouth. Previously you ...... to Autumn Moon"
Zhang Shuo hurriedly interrupted him and said, "They are right behind, do you want Yang Cheng to hear it too?" Don't you have a door? ”
Xu Lang also knew that this joke was not suitable, so he quickly shut up. He and Zhang Shuo looked at Yang Cheng and Qiu Yue behind them at the same time, and saw that they also looked back, Qiu Yue couldn't hear what they were saying, but they looked over at the same time, it must have something to do with her. He glared at them without disgust.
This made Zhang Shuo and Xu Lang embarrassed, thinking that they had heard it.
Zhang Shuo hurriedly said: "What do I say, you can do bad things every time." Let them hear it, right? If Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng are careful, I'll see what you do. ”
Xu Lang said aggrievedly: "I didn't think about arranging them, but I just got to this point." It's a big deal, I'm going to make a deal with them. ”
Zhang Shuo said: "Let's keep quiet, I didn't say anything, if they pursue it, it's not too late for you to make amends." ”
Xu Lang said unconvinced: "Why am I alone to make amends, we chatted together and said this." I didn't say it alone. ”
Zhang Shuo smiled maliciously and said, "Aren't you alone?" Did you hear me say about them? ”
Xu Lang: "......"
Yang Cheng said to Qiu Yue: "Qiu Yue, what happened just now? ”
Qiu Yue said: "Who cares about them, it's extremely boring." ”
Yang Cheng said: "Qiuyue, you and Zhang Shuo, how did you become like this? I see that he was very affectionate to you at the beginning, and I don't believe that in such a short time, he will empathize with you. ”
Qiu Yue said: "People's hearts are unpredictable, people will change, as for when they will change, what will become, who can say for sure?" ”
Yang Cheng asked again, "What about you?" Did you really let him go in your heart? ”
Qiu Yue said: "I don't want to say this, his business has nothing to do with me. Yang Cheng, don't mention him in front of me in the future, okay? ”
Yang Cheng knew that his identity was sensitive, and he was indeed not suitable to meddle in their affairs. But seeing Qiu Yue so sullen, sad and sad, he couldn't bear it. Now at the departure stage, when I arrive in the imperial capital, I will confirm with Zhang Shuo.
He also had to look at Zhang Shuo's attitude towards Akso first. If it is really as they said, Zhang Shuo has a deep love for Akso, then it is natural for Qiuyue to give up. Now I have to ignore it.
