Chapter 139: Wounded
Meng Yu was so anxious that he stomped his feet, and tears flowed down:
"Yuan Lie, he didn't, how can you trust me? He didn't. If he wanted to do that, he would just use the solution that Muzha said to detoxify, but he didn't mention that solution to me at all, so he directly led the poison to himself. Yuan Lie, I beg you not to drill the horns of the bull again. ”
Feng Ya on the side also stepped forward:
"General, Feng Ya is a bystander. That man would rather hurt himself than take a shortcut, and he must not want to hurt his wife. Jump out of your demons. ”
Yuan Lie seemed to have finally been explained, and his face soothed:
"Madam, I'm sorry, but my husband was confused just now. You're right, I believe you, I won't look into it again. Come, I'll help you back to the carriage to rest. ”
Meng Yu's tense nerves relaxed slightly, she looked at Yuan Lie's face carefully, and asked him with a little grievance:
"Did you really figure it out?"
"I've figured it out, hurry up and rest, the child in your belly just now must be angry enough, if you don't calm down and rest, he should jump out and hit me."
Meng Yu was amused by his words, and laughed out loud and leaned into his arms:
"Yuan Lie, the two of us have to trust each other at any time, okay?"
Yuan Lie hugged Meng Yu tightly:
"Okay, I was stupid for my husband just now."
On the way back, Yuan Lie didn't harass Meng Yu anymore, just hugged her tightly.
Meng Yu looked at Yuan Lie's tightly knit brows, knowing that he still had a little bit of the tip of the bull's horns that hadn't come out, and he didn't bother him.
"Anyway, the moment the child comes out, he will know that Luo and I are innocent."
Meng Yu hugged Yuan Lie back, thinking like this, comforting himself.
Back in Chang'an, Yuan Lie settled Meng Yu and went out again.
"Do you want to go to the palace to report on your work as soon as you come back?"
Meng Yuhu asked Yuan Lie suspiciously.
"I'm going to see the princess's sister, she has typhoid fever, and I don't know if it's okay."
"I haven't been to see the princess for a long time, but she went when she first came back, and I'll go with you."
Meng Yu hurriedly chased out with a big belly.
Yuan Lie hurriedly stopped her:
"You have difficulty moving, and besides, if the princess's illness accidentally infects you, it will not be good for the child. Don't go today, I'll talk to you. The princess will surely understand you. ”
When Meng Yu heard this, he didn't insist on following anymore:
"Alright then, be sure to help me ask the princess."
Yuan Lie rode his horse in a hurry and went straight to Princess Pingyang's mansion.
Later in the journey, he had already recalled the entanglement that the princess had when she pulled him out of the tent and told him that there was a way to relieve Meng Yu of the cold poison on his body.
"Sister Princess must know something."
Thinking so, he had already arrived at the princess's mansion.
"Sister."
Yuan Lie looked at Princess Pingyang's withered face and rushed forward.
"Brother, why are you in Chang'an?"
"Sister, how is your body? I have an urgent military situation to present to the emperor, and I have only been back for a few days. ”
"Oh, that's right. My sister is fine, and if she raises it for a few more days, she will probably be fine. ”
"But how did my sister endure this?"
"I told you that it was okay, so I didn't ask more. What is the situation on the battlefield now? I heard earlier that you disappeared in the Turks, what the hell is going on? Talk to my sister. ”
Yuan Lie told Princess Pingyang about how he accidentally fell into the Turkic tunnels, and how he pretended to be someone there to spy on their military strength.
"Oh, that's good. You have always been bold and careful, and I have always reassured you. By the way, your lady's maidservants came to inquire about you before, did they go to look for you? ”
As soon as he heard the princess mention Meng Yu, Yuan Lie's expression dimmed a little:
"Yes, sister, Meng Yu came to see me on a horse by himself."
Princess Pingyang grabbed Yuan Lie's hand:
"Look how much she loves you. She's so heavy, and she's running to find you despite the dangers along the way. Yuan Lie, you go to the palace now to ask your father for a decree, let your father give her a marriage quickly, and marry her while she is at home. Otherwise, no matter how big the belly is, it won't look good. ”
Yuan Lie's face did not show the excitement expected by Princess Pingyang:
"Princess, do you remember the night when the ice arrow was in the feather?"
Princess Pingyang nodded:
"Of course I remember, what's wrong?"
"You pulled me out of the tent and told me that there was a way to save Meng Yu. I've been wondering why those medics don't say it, but they want you to do it. ”
Princess Pingyang suddenly became alert, and her eyes, which were originally yellow and dull due to illness, widened:
"Yuan Lie, have you listened to some traitorous slander?"
Yuan Lie smiled miserably:
"Sister, brother just doesn't want to be stupidly kept in the dark, can you tell me how the cold ice poison is solved?"
"Yuan Lie, you sit next to my bed."
Princess Pingyang straightened up, sat down against the head of the bed, and patted the bed on the side.
Yuan Lie pulled the hem of his clothes and sat down.
"Tell me first, what did Meng Yu tell you?"
Yuan Lie repeated Meng Yu's words and Princess Pingyang.
"Yuan Lie, since you love her, you have to believe her. She has told you all the facts, and that's the truth. You believe my sister and don't pursue this matter anymore. ”
"But sister, when I think of how honest they used to be, my heart ......."
Yuan Lie clenched his fist fiercely and smashed his knee.
"Silly brother, in that case, do you still have to worry about this trivial matter? How can this little bit of honor in the eyes of the world compare with your wife's life? ”
Seeing that Yuan Lie didn't speak, Princess Pingyang grabbed his hand again:
"Actually, when I told you this solution, what I was holding was that Meng Yu would lose himself to the rescuer. But I'm sure you'll understand, after all, it's to save your wife's life. But now it seems, I underestimated this rescuer. He was of noble character, and would rather harm himself than take advantage of the danger of others. Yuan Lie, this is your luck, and it is also Meng Yu's luck. Listen to my sister, don't mention this matter to Meng Yu again. Hurry up and marry her in the door, so that all gossip can be stopped. ”
Yuan Lie raised his head suddenly:
"Sister, you mean?"
"Yes, I mean, Mu Za, this villain, if he finds out that you have let down your guard and continue to be as good to Meng Yu as usual, he will not be reconciled. He will definitely send people to Chang'an to spread rumors. At that time, what kind of things will happen to Meng Yu is simply impossible to imagine now. Hurry into the palace and ask for the holy decree. Don't let the villain get his way. ”
After the princess's analysis, Yuan Lie felt a bone-chilling cold coming from his back.
"Sister, then I'll enter the palace now, and I'll take Meng Yu to see you in the future."
"She has already come to see me before, don't bring her here again, I have a sick stomach here, and it's not good to give her."
Princess Pingyang smiled gently at Yuan Lie:
"Go quickly, my father should be practicing archery at this time."
Yuan Lie hurriedly got on his horse and ran towards the palace.
"Minister Yuan Lie pays a visit to the emperor."
Li Yuan put down the bow and arrow in his hand, a little surprised:
"How did you get back? Isn't it supposed to be helping me fight the Turks? ”
"Back to the emperor, the minister has important military information, and he must present it to the emperor in person."
Yuan Lie told Li Yuan what he could hear about the military situation.
Li Yuan listened, frowning:
"They have prepared so much food and grass?"
"Yes, it looks like they want to have a hard fight with me."
Yuan Lie helped Li Yuan summarize.
"Spread the King of Qin."
Li Yuan turned his head and informed the eunuchs beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The eunuch shook off the dust whisk in his hand and hurriedly retreated.
"When the King of Qin comes, we will discuss together how to deal with this Turk with wolf ambitions. Yuan Lie, come here, first try your arrow skills with my old bones. ”
"The emperor is joking, the emperor is in the prime of life, like the sky, how can he be said to be old?"
"Okay, then how about comparing it with me, a young man in the prime of life?"
The emperor smiled and handed the bow and arrow to Yuan Lie.
Yuan Lie walked to the arrow platform, with a little luck, he pulled the bow full, and with a whoosh, the bow and arrow carried internal force and directly shot through the bull's-eye.
"Okay, good, it's really my hero of Datang. Hahaha. ”
Yuan Lie saw that the emperor was in a good mood, so he quickly put down his bow and arrows, knelt down and pleaded:
"Your Majesty, the minister has a private matter to ask for."
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
"The county lord of Yong'an has been pregnant with the flesh and blood of the minister, and now the belly has been revealed, please ask the emperor to decree that the minister will marry, and the minister can marry the county lord before leaving, and give her a name."
When Li Yuan heard this, he raised it with interest:
"The baby in her belly, how many months?"
Yuan Lie's face flushed slightly:
"Back to Your Majesty, it's been five months."
"Bold!"
Li Yuan deliberately took out his majesty:
"At that time, Tuyuhun hadn't taken it yet, so you were so impatient. If we lose the war and people ask me for the county lord, how can I pay them? ”
"Your Majesty, I joined forces with General Chai, and it is impossible for me to miss the battle with Tuyuhun. If the minister didn't even have this confidence, how could he dare to recognize the title of General Zhenguo? ”
Yuan Lie's voice was full of anger.
"Hahaha, okay, this sentence is happy! We, the soldiers of Datang, must have such confidence. Okay, you do my best, and I won't let you down. It will definitely allow you to marry a beautiful wife and go on the expedition again. Propaganda Officer. ”
The herald on the side was just about to answer, but a gloomy voice came:
"Father, don't be in a hurry to pass on the decree, Erchen heard about a funny thing today, and my father must be very interested in hearing it. After hearing this, my father Xing Xu didn't want to preach this decree. ”
Yuan Lie "chuckled" in his heart:
"How fast is Muzha moving?"
He hurriedly moved his knees forward:
"Your Majesty, the minister still has a lot of military affairs to deal with, please help the minister make a marriage decree first, and then listen to the prince's story slowly."
The prince looked at Yuan Lie with a smile:
"General Yuan, no matter how busy you are with military affairs, you shouldn't care about this moment, right? A little story can't delay you for too long. ”
"Yes, Yuan Lie, we have to wait for King Qin anyway, and you can't leave. Let's listen to the interesting story from the prince's mouth first. Prince, you can say it. ”
Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng.
"Father, don't you know, this Yong'an county lord that General Yuan likes not long ago, he went to fight Tuyuhun with Princess Pingyang."
Li Jiancheng said slowly.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Not bad. It seems that I, Tang, am going to produce another female general. ”
Li Yuan laughed out loud with satisfaction.
"Father, it's a pity that that time, the county lord of Yong'an was injured on the battlefield."
"She's hurt? What's going on? ”
"Her lower abdomen was shot by an ice arrow."
"Ice Arrow?"
Li Yuan's brows furrowed in one place:
"Is there such a vicious thing in this world now?"
"There's no way, maybe the love is deep, and it's responsible. It is said that that arrow was the object that your father thought of letting the county lord of Yong'an marry, Muzha, the fourth prince of Tuyuhun, personally draw a bow and shoot it. ”
"What the hell is going on? swallowed and swallowed my appetite, and finished it in one breath. ”
Li Yuan was a little angry when he heard Li Jiancheng coming out word by word.
