Chapter 112: Watching the sunset from the top of Qi Mountain
Shen Mushi hugged the woman's waist hard, ignoring her rejection and continued to explain:
"Northern Zhao is different from Chu Wei, the etiquette is different, and the morality is often reversed, and they originally had the custom of father-son and wife. On the night of the second day of the defeat, Song Chengcheng was sent into my camp, but I did not touch her and even treated her kindly. To my surprise, she took the initiative to undress herself and beg me to possess her, and begged me to take her back to Chuwei because she wanted to escape from her father and brother. ”
"What do you mean?"
Shuangshuang's eyes widened in surprise, and he didn't react for a while.
What did His Highness say? Song Qingcheng wants to run away from her father and brother? Could it be that the emperor and prince of Beiyue ...... to her
"As you think in your heart, her father and brothers are better than being in vain, Song Chengcheng has infinite scenery on the surface, but it is painful behind the scenes."
Shen Mushi's eyes were honest, and 1510 told everything he knew.
"I'll admit that I've been a little bit of a fool before, but I'm not a despicable person who takes advantage of others. Song Chengcheng begged me in my camp for more than ten days, only on the second day, I moved my compassion and slept with her in my arms, even that night we wore bedclothes, and I never occupied her body. After that, the army left the northern frontier, and many prisoners of war and women who had become military prostitutes were killed, and I secretly released her and did not take her back to Chuwei. ”
Shen Mushi and Panghe told the past, and there was no concealment at all.
"Why kill prisoners of war? Why don't you take her with you? She's so pitiful, you can take her back to Chu Wei and let her live a new life." ”
Shuangshuang was shocked, and her compassion as a woman began to flood, and she actually felt a little pity for what happened to the princess of Beiyue, completely forgetting that Song Chengcheng had insulted her and even wanted to kill her just now.
"If we let the prisoners of war go, they will become enemy soldiers again, and they won't take her away, because I had a little frost in my heart at that time......"
Shen Mushi stared nervously at Shuangshuang's face, and unconsciously increased the strength of his hands to hold him tightly, for fear that she would get angry because she mentioned Xiaoshuang.
"You really, love Xiaoshuang very much......"
Both of them were silent for a while, and they spit out such a sentence faintly.
It's false to say that she is not jealous, but what can she do?
The woman who has grown up silently with His Royal Highness in the palace for so many years is Xiaoshuang; and His Royal Highness's childhood sweetheart, who is also a little frost.
And where is she? She was several years younger than His Royal Highness, when His Royal Highness fought on the battlefield, or in the palace, she was still her innocent eldest lady in the Lu Mansion, and she didn't know that there was Shen Mushi in the world, so what qualifications did she have to be jealous?
Just like Song Chengcheng's incident, of course she will be unhappy when she knows it, but it is just a temporary unhappiness, and it will soon pass.
Because Shuangshuang understands very well that there is no point in dwelling on the past.
"It's not entirely because of Xiaoshuang, it's mainly because even if I bring Song Chengcheng back to Chu Wei, I'm afraid her fate will be even more miserable. Even if Xiaoshuang doesn't kill her, the others will try to get rid of this enemy princess. What's more, I wouldn't risk the crown prince as a woman, it's stupid. ”
Shen Mushi was cold by nature and never explained to others, but in order to appease Shuangshuang's mood, he made exceptions again and again.
Afraid that she would have a pimple in her heart, he patiently confessed again and again, that is, he didn't want to encounter a similar situation in the future, and Shuangshuang's first reaction was to get angry.
He hopes that Shuangshuang can understand himself and learn more about some of his past events.
The choice is to stick to it, and the premise of perseverance must be unconditional trust.
"Then why don't you let them abolish me? In this way, I will not endanger your crown princeship...... I know it all, are you still going to hide it from me........."
Shuangshuang's tone suddenly choked a little, and a tear rolled down from his red eyes, and finally fell on Shen Mushi's arm, and at the same time, it also smashed on Shen Mushi's heart.
What she couldn't accept the most was that she had become the weakness of His Highness......
"I don't want to lose you, I love you......"
Shen Mushi sighed and wiped away the tears on his faces in distress.
His words were like a feather, quietly falling on Shuangshuang's heart, making her heart soften instantly.
"Whoever dares to touch you, I will kill him." 、
Shen Mushi's tone suddenly became cold and full of murderous intent, which made people shudder.
"You're so paranoid."
Both sobbed, their foreheads resting on Shen Mushi's shoulders.
Shen Mushi gently stroked her head and patted it again and again: "I regret it now, why didn't I kill Song Qingcheng directly." ”
"She didn't hurt me."
When they both raised their heads and looked at Shen Mu seriously, they hoped that he could let go of that woman.
After all, she is also a woman, she can feel Song Qingcheng's despair and pain, especially being insulted by her father and brother, this kind of thing is unbearable for ordinary people, it is not easy for her to continue to live, why should His Highness rush to kill them all?
"No, you don't understand, seeing her now, I should have ended her pain with one sword, saving her from this scourge in the world, leaving a stench for thousands of years. Sometimes, compassion is a kind of cruelty, and cruelty is a kind of compassion. ”
"Are you going to hunt them down?"
If you don't understand, you ask.
"Hmm."
Shen Mushi nodded.
Now he is no longer the young man who was easily shaken by others, and he will not feel pity for other people's life experiences casually. If you really pity Song Qingcheng, it is better to kill his father and brother directly.
I met Song Chengcheng by chance today, and after just half a pillar of incense, Shen Mushi found that her temperament had changed greatly, becoming more cruel and cold-blooded.
The girl who knelt naked at his feet five years ago, crying and begging him to take her away, was dead, dead in the filthy Beiyue Palace, in her despair of the world again and again.
Now, she has become a poisonous bait for North Vietnam, using the same method to win the sympathy of enemy generals, and suddenly attacked when the bed was lingering, assassinating several enemy generals, including those of the Northern Khitan, some of the Qi Dynasty, and even several of the generals of Chu Wei did not escape her poisonous hands.
As her name suggests, her appearance is indeed overwhelming, and it is easy to lure men into being fooled.
It's just that she is as vicious as a belly snake, and she will only bite through her master's belly and come out, and on that day, that is, the day of the fall of North Vietnam.
"Let's go, it's not a good place to stay long."
Shen Mushi said lightly.
After that, he threw two ingots of silver on the table as wine money, and quietly left the restaurant with both of them opening the window.
This time, he didn't take the clear road, and Shen Mushi flew between the eaves with his arms in his arms.
In order to prevent being followed, the man deliberately walked around, flying up and down to cover his whereabouts, and finally confirmed that no one was following him, and only then did he take advantage of the sun's westward slope to fall on the patio of the dart bureau.
The chief dart head of the dart bureau is from Huzhou, and he has a strong Jiangnan accent to reconcile with Shen Mushi.
Shuangshuang didn't understand a little, so he simply stayed on the side and took a nap.
Mr. Lin respectfully reported on the business status of the dart bureaus in various places, and analyzed the situation this year by the way, including the net profit of the dart bureau of 150,000 taels of official silver, and 20,000 taels of shell coins.
Shen Mushi nodded with satisfaction, and felt more and more that the decision to open the dart game was really too wise.
In addition to the normal darts and bodyguards, most of the time the darts in the dart game are secretly training, year after year, month and month, month and day, the long-term training has made the darts have good skills, and can compete with the six guards of the East Palace, and the total number of people in each bureau has reached more than 10,000 people, which is simply a private soldier that only belongs to Shen Gongzi.
Shen Mushi instructed Mr. Lin to prepare a new robe, changed his equipment and a new horse, and asked Shuangshuang sideways: "Can the lady ride a horse?" ”
"Not very good."
Shuangshuang once learned to ride a horse, but he didn't dare to be strong because of his poor riding skills.
She knows too many things as a husband, and she is very smart now, and she will not show her head casually, so as not to make people laugh.
There was no way, so the two had to take a carriage to let the dart bureau escort them to the vicinity of Qishan.
It is almost evening when we arrive at the foot of Qishan Mountain, and the sun will set in half an hour.
Shen Mushi exchanged horses with the guards of the dart bureau, let the two guards drive the carriage back, and gave them wooden signs to go to the post station to pick up the horses, and then flicked the horsewhip and went straight to the top of the mountain with both of them.
There are not many people living on Qishan Mountain, so the mountain path is only one and a half zhang wide, and only one carriage remains.
Most of the people who live on Qi Mountain are hunters and medicine farmers, and most of them are spies of Shen Mushi, who live on the mountain in disguise, the purpose is to monitor the entire Shangjing for him, of course, Shen Mushi didn't say these things, and Shuangshuang naturally didn't know.
The little woman looked around with great interest, sitting on a horse and overlooking the beautiful scenery at the foot of the mountain.
The smoke curls from the Qi Mountain Cookhouse, as if it is steaming up with fireworks, and there is a sense of mystery in the lush greenery.
"Qishan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if it is attacked by people, it will be besieged and killed."
Shen Mushi lowered his head and pointed in Shuangshuang's ear.
"However, the view overlooking the entire Shangjing here is quite good, and it can be said to be a hundred miles."
"Hmm."
Both nodded in agreement.
The terrain of Qishan is high and dangerous, steep and steep, it is a barrier to Beijing, and His Royal Highness is not afraid of hard work to take her up the mountain to see the scenery, which is really heartfelt.
Shen Mushi whipped hard, and the horse's hooves were raised and ran towards the mountain, and finally reached the top of the mountain before the sun set.
The two stood hand in hand on the top of the mountain and looked at Shangjing at their feet, only to see the extreme west, the remnant sun gradually submerged into the horizon, thousands of purples and thousands of reds, as if the entire Shangjing was covered with golden yarn, the original golden palace was rendered by this atmosphere, like a city made of pure gold, absolutely beautiful.
Shuangshuang climbed high and looked far away for the first time, and couldn't help but look stupid.
"Shuangshuang, look, is there a snow-white tower in that place?"
Shen Mushi pointed to a slender white needle-like building in the distance.
"There is Meixue Tower, and the East Palace is there."
Both narrowed their eyes.
"Well, I see, the bright yellow glazed tiles next to it are the palace, which is different from the black tiles and red tiles used by ordinary people, the golden ones are shining, and they are really beautiful."
Both praised from the bottom of their hearts, and their eyes were full of brilliant light.
