Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Near Water Rises to the Moon
Let's say that He Yunzhi returned to the mansion after being attacked, and went straight to his father He Zhangdong's study, He Zhangdong has been very busy with official business since he was promoted to the military department, so he did not return to the mansion at this time.
He Yunzhi also instructed his subordinates to invite Pei Shaoli to come over and talk in detail, although they had a meritorious role in quelling the chaos this time, the reason why He Zhangdong was able to be promoted to two levels in a row and the strong recommendation of the King of the Peace West had a great relationship.
He and Pei Shaoli are both newcomers, and the relationship between the DPRK and China is complicated, sometimes if one is not careful, he will offend some big people without knowing it, so it is always beneficial to figure out some things first.
Pei Shaoli was on duty in the Guards, working three shifts a day, and it was not time to take over at this hour, so he did not return home.
Pei Shaoli didn't arrive, but Xiao Zhan came, and the two brothers had a long talk in the study, He Yunzhi said: "Yunzhi was able to get out of danger this time thanks to the help of the county lord, speaking of which, I am still a little brother and I am not good at martial arts, and I am very ashamed." I really have to thank the county lord this time, otherwise I don't know what to do, these people are not small, and they dare to do it in broad daylight. ”
Xiao Zhan smiled faintly and said: "Zhaohua is equipped with an arrow on his wrist, which can send nine dark arrows at a time, which is used to save his life at a critical moment.
I didn't expect it to come in handy this time. ”
He Yunzhi asked again: "Big brother does you know who is going to deal with us, I think these people must be coming for Yunzhi, but it just so happens that the county lord is also there, so I want to teach the county lord a lesson by the way." ”
Xiao Zhan paused and said, "If the eldest brother guessed correctly, it should be His Royal Highness King Yue and Princess Changle." In fact, they are not aimed at you, but mainly for the prince. ”
"This time the southwest is in turmoil, and the prince has promoted a lot of people, but this is also the meaning of the saint. King Yue has been in business for so many years, and many officials in the court are inextricably linked with him. ”
"So taking the opportunity of this quelling of the turmoil, he moved a lot of people from King Yue, with the character of King Yue, how could he give up."
He Yunzhi said: "Why is His Royal Highness the King of Yue so arrogant, is there nothing the Holy Lord can do about him?" ”
Xiao Zhan smiled slightly and said, "With the Queen Mother here, the Holy Lord can't do too much." The saint has always attached the most importance to filial piety, so there is no way to take the king of Yue for the time being. ”
He Yunzhi asked again, "What about Princess Changle?" Why did she participate in the women's generation? ”
Xiao Zhan sighed and said, "Princess Changle was raised by the Queen Mother, and she has always been favored by the Queen Mother. She is not to be afraid, though, but we should be careful. ”
The two were chatting, and the little guy outside the door said, "Pei Zhonglang has arrived." He Yunzhi hurriedly said, "Please come in." ”
Before the words fell, Pei Shaoli opened the curtain and walked in, and the three of them rarely saw each other since returning to Beijing, and they were also very happy at this time.
Pei Shaoli said with a smile: "Big brother, third brother, the three of us brothers finally got together today, I don't know why the third brother is in a hurry to find me?" ”
Although Xiao Zhan is already Pei Shaoli's boss, they are still commensurate with the eldest brother when they meet in private, which is very casual, but it also proves that their relationship is really good.
He Yunzhi hurriedly stood up and said, "Second brother, you are here, you do have something to discuss." "After that, I will give a general account of what happened today.
After listening to this, Pei Shaoli said: "It's good that the third brother is not injured, we all have to be careful in the future, but the open gun is easy to dodge and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent." I wonder what the big brother thinks? ”
Xiao Zhan stood up, took two steps in the study and said, "We don't care, the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth." It's just that the second brother has to be on duty every day, and he is often not at home, so Yueniang is inevitably worried when she is at home alone. ”
Pei Shaoli was shocked: "Do they still dare to break into the house and take people privately?" Besides, we didn't break the law, so are they so bold? ”
Xiao Zhan smiled and said: "Second brother, don't be impatient, the eldest brother is just worried about Yueniang's safety, and he is not sure how King Yue will act, maybe the eldest brother is too worried." ”
Pei Shaoli thought for a while and said, "Big brother, you are still thoughtful, but how is Yueniang settled now?" ”
He Yunzhi said: "It's better to let Yueniang move down to the third brother's mansion to live, so that she can be a companion with Mengluo and Luluo." ”
Pei Shaoli said: "It's good, it's just that you haven't decided on a marriage yet, so it is inevitable that no one will gossip, and then Yueniang's reputation will be ruined." ”
He Yunzhi nodded a little frustratedly, and at this time Xiao Zhan said: "If the second brother can trust the eldest brother, he will move to my mansion to live in. ”
"Now, my junior sister lives in the house, and Yueniang moved over and the two of them happened to be companions. Moreover, this mansion is very close to the back door of the palace, and they don't dare to make a mistake in the eldest brother's mansion. ”
After speaking, he said: "Second brother, you can also live in the eldest brother's house in the future, and it is much closer to the place where you are on duty." ”
Pei Shaoli thought about it and really had no other way, and said, "It's okay, then it's going to bother the eldest brother." ”
After the three brothers finished dinner and drank a few cups of tea, Xiao Zhan and Pei Shaoli got up and left, and at this time, Master He had just returned home from the court. A few people exchanged a few words, and it was not too early, so they went back separately.
Pei Shaoli returned home and told Shao Yu about the move, and Shao Yu asked thoughtfully: "What is the origin of His Royal Highness the King of Yue being so arrogant?" ”
Pei Shaoli said: "His Royal Highness the King of Yue is the little uncle of the saint, a few years younger than the saint, and he is the biological son of the queen mother. ”
Shao Yu smashed his mouth and said: "This queen mother is so confused, what good fruit can Her Royal Highness the King of Yue eat after a hundred years." ”
Pei Shaoli hurriedly said: "Yueniang, you are not allowed to talk nonsense outside, otherwise it will be the crime of killing your head." ”
Shao Yu said: "Brother, Yueniang Province will not talk nonsense outside. ”
He asked again, "Brother, will you move tomorrow?" ”
Pei Shaoli nodded and said, "Brother Xiao will send someone to pick you up tomorrow, you just pack up and take the two maids with you." ”
Shao Yu nodded and said: "Yueniang knows, brother, hurry up and go to rest after washing, it's strange to be tired after a day." ”
After the brother and sister washed up, they went to rest and went to rest all night.
The next day, Shaoyu sorted out the two cages, and left Mama Zhang and Liu Er to take care of the house here, and everything in this house was temporarily handed over to Mama Zhang to take care of on weekdays.
It was already around time, Xiao Zhan really sent a personal servant Shuwen, and also drove a carriage over, accompanied by a maid, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a good temperament and excellent appearance.
As soon as the maid saw Shao Yu come out, she hurriedly greeted her and saluted and said with a smile: "Miss Pei, the slave maid is the big maid in General Xiao's mansion, General Xiao sent the slave and maid to pick up the girl, the girl please." ”
Shao Yu suddenly felt a little weak, and his heart was pounding, and he smiled and said, "Then there is this sister Lao." ”
The maid smiled and said, "The girl is polite, the girl will be called the slave maid Qianxue." ”
Shao Yu nodded and said, "Then there is Sister Lao Qianxue." ”
The book here suddenly said: "Miss Pei, do you remember the slave me?" The slave had seen the girl in Jeju. ”
Shao Yu smiled and said, "Some faces are kind, and there is work." ”
The carriage did not run very fast, and came to a halt after half an hour.
The three masters and servants took Qianxue out of the carriage, entered the backyard from the corner gate, and walked through the garden first, there were not many flowers in the garden, but there was a piece of bamboo, and the layout was similar to the house where they lived.
Passing through the long corridor again, next to the corridor is a rockery, the water is murmuring under the rockery, the whole garden is clean and elegant, and there is a special interest.
Soon arrived at a courtyard, and as soon as I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I heard a woman's voice coming from behind me: "Who is this?" Why did a girl suddenly move in silently, could it be that the senior brother wanted to hide Jiaojiao in the golden house. ”
Shao Yu turned around and saw that this girl was wearing an apricot yellow narrow-sleeved fairy dress today, which was still beautiful and cold as frost.
Shao Yu smiled faintly and said, "I'm just living here for a while, and we don't live in a courtyard, so we shouldn't be able to disturb the girl." ”
After thinking about it, he said: "We will inevitably look down and not look up in the future, what is the name of this girl?" My name is Pei Shaoyu, and you can call me Yueniang. ”
The woman still said expressionlessly: "I remember, we met on the street that day, you were wearing men's clothes that day, how did you meet Senior Brother?" ”
Pei Shaoyu said: "Is this important? Doesn't the girl welcome me? Let's be a companion to relieve boredom, it's better than you alone. ”
Who knew that she sneered and said: "I think it's good to be alone, I don't need you as a companion, and this girl is not uncommon." ”
Cui'er couldn't help but say: "The girl is so rude, my girl is so loud and angry to talk to you, you are so prickly and arrogant." If you think we girls are bullies, then you've got the wrong idea. ”
Who knew that the figure in front of her flashed, and the woman had arrived in front of Cui'er, and she stretched out her hand and waved it to Cui'er's cheek.
Cui'er only stretched out her hand to block back, and the two fought back and forth, and after dozens of rounds, the woman was a little anxious, and reached out to pull out the hairpin in her hair and stabbed at Cui'er.
Cui'er was not in a hurry, dodged with a dodge, swept over with a chain of legs, and at the same time hit the woman's acupoint with a thunderous speed with her right hand.
The woman still said coldly, "What do you want?" If Senior Brother knew that you were doing this to me, he would definitely not let you go. ”
Shao Yu smiled and said, "I don't want to do anything, I just want to be friends with you." But you have to make sure that you will solve your acupoints later, you don't mess around, and you don't lose your temper, okay. ”
The woman said: "This girl's skills are not as good as others, what is there to lose her temper, I am willing to gamble and lose." ”
Only then did Cui'er solve her acupoint, and the woman said with a suspicious expression: "You really want to be friends with me?" ”
Shao Yu raised three fingers and said, "I'm sincere, I really can't be true." ”
