Chapter Ninety-One: A Corner of Life
Wei Lan's move, no matter from which point of view, was to show Sima Jingling and Ah Pu that even if he was not in Dadu, he always had the whereabouts of the two of them, and told Sima Jingling and Ah Pu that he already knew that his "dear brother" and the princess and guests from afar had come to his home as he thought.
However, such a message could have been displayed in any way, but Wei Lan chose such an annoying way to deliberately stimulate him, which really made Ah Bao dislike.
Infinite anger rose in his heart, and he wanted to immediately step forward and tear up all the portraits in front of him, but he knew that he couldn't.
If Wei Lan just wanted to simply use some means to disgust him, then he wouldn't use these portraits that looked similar to his mother, so these portraits must have other functions.
Ah Pu forced himself to calm down, and said to Sima Jingling: "The surprise he wants to give us should be more than that.
I looked at it carefully, and the people on these portraits were indeed very similar to my mother, and even their demeanor and temperament were exactly the same as my mother's. But there is only one thing that is different from my mother, and that is her eyes. ”
"Eyeballs?" When Sima Jingling heard this, she looked carefully at these portraits, and found that the eyes of the people on the portraits were indeed a little strange.
People's eyes should be the same color, but the portrait of this person is bright and dark, showing different colors, which is really different from ordinary people.
However, this point is not very obvious to the person who painted it, so if you don't look at it carefully, it is easy to ignore this characteristic of the person in the painting.
"Heterochromatic people, this is getting more and more interesting." Sima Jingling was a little surprised, and she was becoming more and more interested in the Guan Zi that Wei Lan sold.
She turned her head and smiled at Ah Pu, and asked him, "Do you remember the news we got from Night Raven and Night Wing two days ago?" ”
Abu nodded.
So Sima Jingling continued: "There is a record in the "Chronicles of the Four Kingdoms", 'The east is in the fairyland, and its people are immortals; Heaven and man give eyes, and the path of people can be perceived'. The meaning of this sentence is that in the eastern country, people have different eyes, which is actually a very sacred thing, and in the eastern country, they can be regarded as people with high status and respect.
Why would such a person appear in the Beiao Kingdom, which is some distance away from the east and doesn't seem to have anything to do with it, a painting that has developed for many years and has the most powerful underground dark emperor in the whole Beiao? Unless, this Dark Emperor is acquainted with the person in the painting, and even very familiar. ”
Abu also remembered the description of the eastern kingdom in the book.
After many years in Beiao, the only time when he can be undisturbed and feel quiet is when he reads all kinds of books.
Bei Ao is heavy on martial arts and light on literature, and there are really not many people who can read books unscrupulously.
From the royal family and nobles to the common people, every day they actually have to focus a lot of energy on how to improve their own strength, and there is no leisure at all to read a book and increase their knowledge. And he was able to read all kinds of books since he was a child, or because of his father's opinion.
But then ......
But since he went to the southern kingdom, he has had a lot of time to read.
Although in the impression of everyone, the people of the Southern Imperial Kingdom are some weak people who can only read and have no power to restrain the chicken, but under the understanding of Ah Gou, it is found that there are many people who practice martial arts in the Southern Imperial Kingdom, and everyone's attitude towards choosing Xi Wen or Xi Wu is the same, and there are many theories about how to improve the method of dabbling in some of the great works.
These "theoretical books" used to improve practical skills are quite reasonable in the eyes of the natives who have practiced riding and archery since childhood, and can even provide good training methods for martial arts practitioners, which are effective.
However, Agui's interest is not in these.
In fact, he still wants to learn about the world from some of the various books included here in Nan Yuguo, broaden his horizons, and increase his resourcefulness.
One of them is the "Chronicles of the Four Kingdoms" mentioned by Sima Jingling just now.
The book "Chronicles of the Four Kingdoms", as the name suggests, is about the four most influential powers in the world.
In addition to the Southern Imperial Kingdom, the Northern Proud Kingdom, and the Eastern Border Kingdom, there is also the Western Fan Kingdom.
The Northern Proud Kingdom is still martial, the Southern Imperial Kingdom is both civil and military, and the Western Fan Kingdom is very economical, and the caravan of the whole country can be said to have traveled to all corners of the world, and the relationship with the Southern Imperial Kingdom is very close, after all, the Southern Imperial Kingdom can give them goods at a more reasonable price.
As for the eastern border, it is one of the most distinctive countries.
It may be because it is bordered by the sea in the east, and there is no direct access between it and other countries, which makes it seem a little mysterious, and many people yearn for the east country.
However, it is not a simple matter to go to the eastern bordering country.
In the "Chronicles of the Four Kingdoms", the record of the eastern border country is very long, probably because the journey to the east is very rare, and those who are fortunate enough to go to the eastern border country naturally want to record all what they have seen and heard.
But perhaps this person's attitude towards Donglinguo is too admiring and excited, so the account of Donglinguo is full of some amazement and amazement, which is really a little distorted in Apu's opinion, although it is indeed very interesting to read.
I didn't expect that today, the incredible things I saw in the book turned out to be true.
In Ah Gou's heart, there were some mixed feelings for a while.
He seemed to sigh,
"I didn't expect it to be true."
"I really didn't expect it." Sima Jingling replied approvingly, "It turns out that Wei Lan is really not a member of the royal family. ”
Ah Pu suddenly raised his head, glanced at Sima Jingling in a daze, and then smiled dumbly.
It's just that, although they don't say the same thing, but in the end, the result is not bad.
He was a little helpless, and deliberately pretended to be joking and said: "It's good since then, so that when I seek revenge on Wei Lan in the future, I will think about our relationship with each other in my heart." ”
"I don't know if you will be soft-hearted, I only know that there is a very good chance that you are related to each other. In other words, you have always been brothers. After Sima Jingling listened to Apu's transformation, she didn't follow Apu's pretended relaxed atmosphere to chat, but chose to directly break Apu's thoughts.
She lifted one of the portraits, which looked a little different, and pulled out a silk silk with words written on it.
She looked at the lotus flowers embroidered on the silk and the word "Hanlian" on the lotus flowers, and still felt a little suspicious, so she glanced around the room, so a bottle next to the painting that seemed to be a little abrupt caught her attention.
The flowers in this bottle have long been grateful.
This house is often cleaned up, and since someone is cleaning up, why don't you change the flowers in this vase?
Sima Jingling felt strange, so she reached over and pulled out the withered flowers in the bottle, and threw the silk silk in her hand into the bottle.
When I picked it up again, it was already full of dense words.
Sima Jingling read it from beginning to end and found that what was recorded on it was the past of this "Han Lian", which mentioned that she had two children.
After reading it, Sima Jingling was a little surprised, but she felt that it was indeed such a sense of steadiness, which made her realize that she should have had such a guess a long time ago, but she never said it.
When Sima Jingling said this, she noticed that Ah Pu's face stiffened for a moment, and then became very calm, and there were no reactions she expected.
However, Ah Pu's calmness also reacted sideways, in his heart, in fact, like Sima Jingling, he also had such a guess about his own life experience.
Sima Jingling was silent and didn't say anything, intending to let Ah Xue be able to calm down independently.
The two of them were silent, silently searching for other information in the room.
After a while, Sima Jingling and Ah Pu found a lot of evidence that could prove that they were indeed born from Donglin Kingdom, including the jade pendant that Night Crow and Night Weng noticed at that time.
The two looked at the jade pendant together, looking at each other.
After a while, Sima Jingling sighed and said, "The jade pendants have been given to us, it seems that Wei Lan is indeed very clear about our every move." That's fine, but there is no need to let the Night Raven and the Night Weng find a way to re-enter the mansion of the Wei Zhongshi.
However, in my opinion, Wei Lan only knew that I had such a move, but he still had some doubts about the existence of Night Raven and Night Weng. Otherwise, according to his temperament, wouldn't it be better to put this jade pendant directly next to the pillow of the night crow and the night man, and let them hand it over to me? ”
Ah Pu nodded, which can be regarded as agreeing with Sima Jingling's idea.
His mood has calmed down a lot now, and he has also figured out that even if his life experience is related to Donglinguo, it does not affect his perception that he is a man of Northern Pride.
He wants to return to Beiao, and after Beiao makes a move, and settles all the old accounts one by one, he will establish a real and unified dynasty. Therefore, the east is just a very mysterious and strange country that exists in books.
The two looked around again, and found that there was nothing else but these things, and they were about to take their leave.
When they came out of the house, the slave bustard was waiting outside.
After he handed Sima Jingling and Ah Pu a letter, he said to Sima Jingling and Ah Pu: "Go out from here and walk to the West Gate, there is a carriage waiting there, and Mrs. Lin has also been taken to the carriage by the people of our Red Courtyard, so you can just take the carriage and leave." ”
With that, the slave bustard left directly.
Seeing this, Sima Jingling didn't say anything more, and saw that the neighborhood was really dim, so she planned to leave the Red Courtyard with the letter in her hand and look at it again.
So, she reached out and put her hand on the arm that Apo habitually stretched out, and the two of them slowly walked along the road, smelling the lotus fragrance, and slowly walked towards the west side door.
