Chapter 54: Pretending to be poisoned
Le Yi's gaze stayed on the girl's body.
He felt that as soon as Meng Yining opened her mouth to analyze, she would be a different person. is like a scheming strategist who comes and goes in the wind and rain, and analyzes everyone at the head of the Tao, and there seems to be no details that she can't think of. He looked at Meng Yining's shining eyes, as if he was deeply immersed in them, where there was a sea of stars and turbulent waves.
Zhang Ji listened, his eyes slightly moistened. He touched the girl's head and smiled kindly, "You really are, but you come like your father." Although I have rarely seen him, I have heard that he is a general who is good at analysis, and then grasps the enemy's weak underbelly and deals a heavy blow. Now it seems that when he was young, he may have been your charm. ”
It's just that I didn't see each other again.
Meng Yining smiled, she was already content with her sister by her side, and there was no need to ask for more.
Gu Zi'an did not join the topic, what he thought was in line with Meng Yining.
She handed him two red berries and blinked.
Gu Zi'an looked at the girl's smug look, lowered his head and smiled, and took the berry in his mouth and bit it. Bright red juice stained the corners of his mouth. It turned out that Meng Yining often used this fruit as rouge, but now it has come in handy for other purposes. Although no one may see it, you have to do a full set of plays.
After Gu Zi'an finished chewing, he put the bowl on the "dingdong" and threw it, closed his eyes and went to the side.
"Plop" fell to the ground.
Meng Yining was joking with Le Yi, and when she looked at Gu Zi'an, she looked at each other. Her face became faster than singing, red and white, as if she had opened a paint shop.
So soon, I'm not ready!
The girl thought and hurriedly ran to help Gu Zi'an. As soon as several people saw him fall down instantly, they also immediately entered the state. Although there is no audience in this scene, who knows if the wall has ears, you need to immerse yourself in this atmosphere all the time to not make mistakes!
Chunxia stood aside and screamed, shouting, "Your Highness! With an anxious expression on his face, tears burst into his eyes in an instant. The soldiers outside the account heard the movement, and they all came to check, for fear that Gu Zi'an would encounter an assassin.
Zhang Ji calmly lifted the curtain and said in a deep voice: "There is nothing to do, there is no need to come in." ”
Chun Xia hurriedly ran out of the tent, went to the carriage and turned out the medicinal herbs, and then ran back into the tent. Her face was flushed, and her forehead was covered with sweat. Hongxi followed behind him, grabbed a box of cooking utensils for decoction, and rushed to the tent. Xiao Zimu and Zhang Ji had serious expressions, but they didn't reveal anything about what happened inside the tent.
A discerning person knew at a glance that something had happened to Gu Zi'an.
And this is the effect that Meng Yining wants.
Li Ke did not participate in this drama, he sat in the carriage with ten petals of chrysanthemum lotus, and looked at the busy group and laughed secretly. Everyone acted like the real thing, and if he didn't know anything, he might be able to be deceived by these superb acting skills. The two Zhang Ji men hurriedly ran into the account, and led four fast horses with heavy responsibilities, or they rushed to Zhaojun in one day, day and night.
Everyone instantly smelled an ominous smell in the air.
General Gai put his hands behind his back and inspected his army again, carefully looking at everyone, with a posture of wanting to find out who poisoned Gu Zi'an. The soldiers were puzzled, but they didn't dare to smell more, so they could only look at the white tent that was calm just now. The porridge that Gu Zi'an had drunk had already been poured on the ground, and the smell of bitter medicine came from the tent.
Meng Yining's figure pacing back and forth was seen by several soldiers. Le Yi wanted to comfort her, but was pushed away by her slap. Although everyone didn't ask, the answer gradually appeared in their hearts.
An hour later, Gu Zi'an staggered out of the tent, not so much two people as dragging it away. From a distance, you can see that he is weak. Zhang Ji declared to the public that Gu Zi'an's cold attack was not a big deal, and he could go to Zhaojun to recuperate.
"Cheer up!" A sentence was shouted from inside the tent.
Subsequently, the troops were deployed.
It's just that there is no laughter and laughter before, and everyone looks calm. Gu Zi'an's carriage was tightly wrapped around the car, and Meng Yining was not seen lying outside the carriage like just now, she was waiting in the tent herself.
Dark clouds rolled in the distance, and the afterglow of the setting sun stained the mountains with a glow of red.
Meng Yining got into the carriage and watched Gu Zi'an push open the wooden skylight above his head for half a while, and the white gauze curtain on it was shining through. He leaned on an embroidered cushion and read the art of war while he was in the light.
"Well, isn't it particularly like?" Meng Yining came specifically to ask for praise, because he could still ride a horse and talk on weekdays, but now he could only wait by Gu Zi'an's side, as if he was imprisoned. "Just now I saw a bird, with white feathers and a pinch of red on its head, very beautiful, and it stopped on the railing of your carriage......" she chirped like a little finch.
Gu Zi'an knew that she was very bored now and couldn't do anything. When I lifted the curtain and went out to breathe, I first put on a sad and anxious look. And getting into the curtain, just like a child who asks for candy, needs Gu Zi'an's praise every time: "It's really like acting, I'm about to take it seriously." Hearing this, he paused for a moment with satisfaction.
After coming and going several times, Meng Yining finally asked, "What are you going to do after pretending to be dead?" ”
He smiled: "I thought you had everything figured out, and I just did it." He closed the scroll, revealing a faint coldness and elegance in his bones.
"I've been learning this by your side for so many years, where is there a teacher who doesn't give advice and directly asks students to do it." The girl pursed her lips and leaned back on the soft pillow behind her.
Eat these berries in your hands, let's chirp, chirp.
"You mentioned that if I die violently, Zhao Hai will definitely announce it as quickly as possible, and then make his son Gu Chongwu king. And now Zhao Chai's eldest brother Zhao Yien only has 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are not under his direct control. may also be that his father was afraid that the Zhao family would have too much power, so he kept setting them up. However, 10,000 soldiers and horses is not a small number for us. They need to wait for them to relax their vigilance and quickly encircle and annihilate them. Be quick, or you will have long nights and many dreams. ”
"There are about 20,000 soldiers and horses under the powerful ministers that Zhao Yien has recruited over the years, how are you going to deal with them." Meng Yining asked, he only has eight thousand people, and it is best for these soldiers brought by Great Xia to be used on the blade.
Gu Zi'an raised his head and looked at the sky through the curtain: "Zhao Yien used money and power to win them, why can't I?" ”
"You are rightly the king of Beiyang, of course you can, and then compared to those who want to usurp the throne, no one will not believe you. However, people also have to judge the situation. Whether you win or Gu Chongwu wins, for them, it's not certain. Meng Yining said shallowly.
