The house found for plain porcelain is built by the mountain, built near the water, although the courtyard is not big, the green tile mud wall, the bamboo fence is sparse, it is not a pastoral scenery, the front and back of the Shen Pearl House walk around, linger and forget to return. Yan Ming said: "A certain known meeting is taking care of it here, and no one dares to come to make trouble." Shen Pearl asked in a low voice, "What about General Feng?" Yan Ming felt that this question was headless and brainless, and replied truthfully: "It's still in the Criminal Department." ”

After settling down the plain porcelain, it was almost noon, and I took a small sedan chair to the city, and the big flag of the Pingyuan teahouse was waved in front. Shen Pearl thought for a moment and called to stop the sedan car. Yan Ming came over to inquire, Shen Pearl looked at the teahouse and said: "This concubine is a little thirsty, and she intends to go up to the teahouse to drink. ”

Yan Ming took a step back and said again and again: "Yan doesn't dare, Yan is waiting for the princess." Shen Pearl smiled slightly, walked up to the teahouse, and Yan Ming followed closely.

There are too many soldiers in Fengxiang County, and ordinary people dare not go out at will. The business of this tea house is bleak, and looking around the second floor, there is only one person sitting with his back to him, drinking tea slowly. After hearing (身shēn), the footsteps sounded, and when he turned back (身shēn), it was Mo Yan sipping.

Yan Ming didn't expect to meet Hui Khan here, so he couldn't help but be stunned, and then hugged his fists and said: "It turns out that the Khan is also here, Yan is polite." ”

Mo Yan glanced at him, didn't answer, and said lightly to Shen Zhuzhu: "Mrs. Zhenguo is also here?" ”

Shen Pearl had no choice but to return the salute: "Is the Khan well?" ”

Mo Yan smirked and said: "(The palace diàn) is now more and more cautious, and even the effort to drink a cup of tea is watched by people looking at the princess." While speaking, Xiao Er had already come upstairs and asked Shen Pearl what kind of tea he wanted.

Mo Yan sobbed: "It's really just the right time, King Ben Khan has a matter and wants to discuss with the princess, this general, can you please avoid it?" ”

Shen Zhuzhu's original intention was to be strict and beside him, so as not to be suspicious of Li Jiao after he found out, and said: "There is nothing to say to people, why should General Yan avoid it, but it doesn't hurt to listen." ”

Mo Yan sobbed: "If this matter involves state affairs and secrets, can you let him know?" ”

"If it is a secret, how can the Khan negotiate with me here? It's time to find the right place to negotiate again. ”

"But where does the princess think it is appropriate? Is it a no-man's land in the mountains and wilderness, or the palace of the palace, or even the marshal's mansion under the palace diàn? Although the princess is the lady of Zhenguo, it seems that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has not given you the right to participate in political affairs. ”

"In this case, the Khan still wants to talk about state affairs with the concubine, where is the concubine?"

The two of them were-for-tat, Yan Ming was confused when he listened, he knew that Shen Pearl was originally rescued by Li Li and Mo Yansi, and Shen Pearl didn't have to worry about his safety, not to mention that he had been in charge of the left guard of the palace for many years, and he had already understood what he should know about things in the world, what he didn't need to know, and what it meant to keep his mouth shut and avoid suspicion. At the moment, he hugged his fists and said: "Yan retreated, princess, and waited outside the teahouse." Without waiting for Shen Pearl to agree, he walked downstairs with a knock knock.

Mo Yan sipped his seat and Shen Pearl was far away, slowly poured himself a cup of tea, tasted it for a long time, and saw Shen Pearl tea to drink, Fang opened his mouth and said: "Although Ye Hu is not my biological son, in the past two years, I have regarded him as a parent and taught him to raise him. ”

Shen Pearl heard him mention Ye Hu for no reason, but she didn't know what she meant, so she just listened to him.

"However, the people in my clan are very jealous of Ye Hu, and they are worried that the relocation of the land will be young, and the Ye Hu will be full of wings, which will endanger the position of the relocation and construction. Therefore, they have always been embarrassed by Ye Hu's moderation everywhere, he is young, but he is sensible, and he has always swallowed his anger and does not care about others. ”

Shen Pearl flicked the edge of the teacup with his slender hand, made a tinkling sound, and said: "This is a lot of thoughts, Khan (Chun Chūn) is in full bloom in autumn, don't say Ye Hu, it is a grass and a tree in Hui, all under your fingers." Now that my Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, don't you put it in your eyes? ”

Mo Yan smiled arrogantly and said, "Are you blaming me for not personally meeting your Emperor Majesty yesterday?" Pearl, this is exactly what I want to say when I asked you to come today, the dynasty fights for hegemony, bloodshed and killing, it is all our man's business, I don't want you to participate in it. ”

"It turns out that you are afraid that I will put pressure on Ye Hu and hinder Khan's plan to enter the Central Plains!" Shen Pearl put down the teacup in his hand, smiling rather than smiling.

"As the king of a country, I must seek the best interests of my people, and I hope that you will be considerate of me. I should be more considerate of Ye Hu, I will give him the opportunity to establish meritorious deeds, if this expedition is unfavorable, it will be even more difficult for him to gain a foothold in the clan after returning to the royal court, after all, he recognizes you as his stepmother. ”

Shen Pearl pondered for a moment, and said categorically: "It's a pity that Your Majesty has canonized me as Mrs. Zhenguo, even if I haven't been canonized, I have to do my best for the people of the Tang Dynasty." Ye Hu is willing to listen to my persuasion or two, or if he doesn't listen to the persuasion or be replaced by you, I can only do so. Since ancient times, these bloody battles have all started from the ambitions of your men, and they are endless, but I can't bear to see the lives ruined, and the beacons will continue to burn for years. You and I are in different positions at the moment, and it is useless to talk too much. "To get up (身shēn) is to go.

"Pearl," Mo Yan sipped to her, "listen to me again—if you are in danger, I will save you by risking my life." But I (body shēn) is a khan, and I have lived in the bitter cold land of Mobei for a hundred years, and you should know the hardships and hardships. If the time is right, I will never give up the long-cherished wish of the previous generations. There is no contradiction between the two. I don't want to lie to you. ”

"How can it not be contradictory?" Shen Pearl Huo's turn (body shēn), "If there is a (日rì) you dare to invade my Tang Dynasty, I and you and Ye Hu are enemies, even if Pearl dies, I don't bother to let you come to the rescue!" ”

smiled coldly, and then said: "What's more, although my Datang is weak now, I have a request for you, but since the founding of Gaozu Taizong, a century-old foundation has been laid, how can you get it if you want to get it?" Not to mention anything else, Marshal Guo Ziyi's three thousand iron horsemen are not inferior to your Hui Hui, the two tigers fight, and see who spends a long time? Although you have destroyed the Turks, there are still remnants of the Turks attached to Fanguo, intending to make a comeback, you look south to the Central Plains, how can you not worry about a fire in the backyard? I read poetry and books when I was a child, and I remember the ancient saying: (want yù) those who are rich in the country, and the land is extensive; (want yù) those who strengthen the army, enrich their people; (Desire yù) king, Wu Bo Qide. These three capitalists, Khan, how many assets do you have? And the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty, if you have the heart to rob the world, this is unrighteous and nameless, and you may succeed if you attack the world (desire)? If this is the state business you have asked me to talk about, I will not be with you any more. ”

After speaking, he walked away, but he felt that his cuffs were tight, and Mo Yansi didn't know when he had held her long sleeves, she was stunned, and hurriedly waved her sleeves away, Mo Yansi was not reluctant, let go and stepped back, staring at her, the arrogance and domineering in his eyes were slightly dispersed, "Come more, I really want to see you——"

"Why is it so troublesome, the Khan is here!" Li Li's voice sounded on the ground, Shen Pearl suddenly raised her head, Li Jiao was dressed in brocade and jade belt, elegant and calm, I don't know when she was already standing at the stairs, and walked slowly towards the two of them.

Shen Pearl didn't expect Li Jiao to come here. He smiled and casually greeted Mo Yan, but Shen Pearl touched his eyes, and the coldness loomed in the gloom, and her heart was like a deer. The slender hand hurt, and was vigorously grabbed by Li Jiao's palm, frowning and not daring to make a sound. Today (rì) she came to see Mo Yansi, but she didn't have time to tell Li Jiao that if he heard Fang Cai's own remarks, if it happened to happen, I was afraid that it would cause misunderstanding. At this time, I secretly regretted and felt guilty.

Mo Yan snorted and said: "Ben Khan happened to meet the princess in the teahouse, talk a few more words, (the palace diàn) will not be a gap, right?" ”

Li Jiao smiled: "The Khan is really good at laughing, and the life of the pearl also depends on the Khan's helper to save him, if Li Li wants to survive, he will not be like this for a long time." ”

Mo Yan sipped his hand and took his leave.

Li Jiao took Shen Zhuzhu's hand and took her downstairs, on the sedan chair, and to Xingyuan. Walking through the courtyards, when he was about to reach the courtyard where he lived, he let go indifferently and rushed forward, leaving Shen Zhuzhu, Yan Ming, and all the attendants and palace maids behind.

Shen Pearl had never seen him do this to her, knowing that he was indeed extremely angry, he peeked at Yan Ming, Yan Ming shook his head slowly, implying that he didn't know why Li Jiao suddenly came to the teahouse.

Feeling guilty, she hurriedly stepped forward and gently tugged at his sleeve. He was slightly stunned, but he didn't look back at her, pushed her away with a little force, and stepped into the room by himself, and Shen Pearl followed in.

"Yan Ming come in!" Li Jiao turned his hand (body shēn) and shouted to the outside.

Yan Ming listened to Li Li's voice and tone, and knew that the shape of today (日rì) (情qíng) was very bad, so he agreed to come in and stood solemnly beside him.

Li Jiao's face was already pale, because he had not slept all night because he was dealing with official business last night, his eyes were a few bloodshots in the cold cold, he barely suppressed his anger, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "This king asked you to protect the princess every step of the way, what did you do!" ”

"The subordinates are derelict in their duties, and they are willing to receive the punishment-" Yan Ming figured out Li Jiao's spleen (sex xìng), if he used strong words and quibbles, he would only be more annoyed, so he bowed his head and accepted the punishment.

Shen Pearl knew that this punishment was at least thirty rods, and this matter was caused by himself, how could he bear to let Yan Ming be implicated, and as soon as Yan Ming finished speaking, he hurriedly begged for him to forgive, and said to Li Jiao: "This is not about General Yan, I ordered him to leave temporarily!" ”

"Shut up!" Li Jiao turned his eyes to look at her like lightning, his eyes were red, like fire, Shen Pearl did not prevent him from being furious, his heart was stunned, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.

Li Jiao's eyes looked directly at Shen Zhuzhu, as if he had shifted his anger, no longer looked at Yan Ming, waved his sleeves and pointed to his standing position, and shouted: "Get out!" ”

Yan Minghun (身shēn) was shocked and hurriedly withdrew, not forgetting to close the door tightly.

"Li," Shen Zhu looked at him a little nervously, anxious (want yù) to explain, Li Li sneered, his boots stepped on the carpet, clicking, and took a step forward towards her, she subconsciously retreated, he raised his eyebrows and sneered again, pursed his lips, and fiercely (forced bī) bī) to come over, and Ling Ran's oppressive momentum completely blocked what she wanted to say below.

Seeing him approaching and standing in front of her, she held her breath and tentatively pulled Peiyu on his waist again, (Jiaojiāo) timidity, hoping to calm his anger a little, but Li Jiao raised her hand vigorously, she staggered back a few steps, heard a loud sound of "呯", (身shēn) The back screen was knocked down, and it was spread out.

She was unsteady on her feet, slipping on the screen, and her wrist ached slightly. The screen is a popular folk nine-fold screen since Xuanzong, and the wrist should have been accidentally scratched by a gilded bubble nail at the fold.

He didn't come to help her, he just bowed down slowly, looked at her coldly, and suddenly let out a sneer: "It's a coincidence, if I don't go to the teahouse today, do you and him want to talk about the whole (日rì), happy to go home?" ”

"It's my fault first, but—" Shen Pearl still tried to explain.

"Hugh said yes!" Li Jiao categorically stopped: "You and I know it - it's not the first time I've seen it with my own eyes - you dare to treat me like nothing like this?!" ”

Shen Pearl looked at him in a daze, his mind was confused, his thoughts were like hemp, and he couldn't figure out where to think of him and how to deal with his words.

Temporary Bridge ...... Luoyang ...... Bonfire......

That (日rì) is in the shape of a temporary bridge (情qíng), and Li Chengyin or Cui Guangyuan will naturally report to Li Jiao in 1510. Li Jiao is so smart, as early as Hui Hui, he must have known Mo Yansi's heart, and even when he rescued her from danger with Mo Yansi, he still took precautions against Mo Yansi. - He has always been suspicious and wary of her and Mo Yansi, but he didn't ask her personally to confirm that not only in Li Yu's eyes, she was so unbearable; Even he, deep in his heart, is afraid that he is not all relieved.

Thinking of this, there was some chaos in her mind, and she immediately Huo Ran - next to the bonfire, the fur she was wearing was originally dropped outside the camp tent, and she was afraid that she would go out and meet Mo Yan again, so she didn't go out to pick it up, but the second day (day rì) woke up, and the fur was already in the camp tent; She was obviously lying on the drunken Li Jiao (body shēn), and she was expected to catch a cold, why did she wake up without any discomfort? Could it be that he's feigned drunk?

He didn't believe in himself, he never believed. Or not only Mo Yansi, she was once imprisoned by An Qingxu (forbidden jìn), he may have accidentally recalled it at midnight, still suspicious.

In this case, why did he swear that he was soft (情qíng) like water? Is it guilt, pity, or is it because she's the mother of the baby?

Was he going to lie to her, or was he going to lie to himself? , he still feels guilty about her now, and he is also like the sea deep (love qíng). However, as time goes on, the guilt will slowly dissipate, and the so-called (情qíng) will be as deep as a cloud.

It turned out that what she wanted to grasp, she was bent on holding her head high, not giving up, not retreating or avoiding, but that's it......

Li Jiao suddenly closed his mouth. Under his anger and rage, he did not choose to speak, and as soon as he said this, he regretted it.

Her original complexion was flushed (delicate jiāo) pretty, and the blush gradually retracted, white as jade porcelain, without a trace of blood, her eyes were faint and faint from him, if she lost her mind for a while, and if she was in pain for a while.

He was shocked, and he went to help her, and hurriedly explained: "Pearl, you ——, me—I'm dizzy, I'm talking nonsense—" At the tentacle, he felt that her hands were cold, and her (body shēn) zi trembled slightly, and the hatred in her heart was overwhelming.

Shen Pearl let him slowly help him up, still in the same stunned appearance, neither angry nor resistant, and entered his own world smoothly. Li Li was anxious, grabbed her shoulders, and called her name again and again. Desperate to catch a little bit of information on her face, angry or angry, but it seemed that she couldn't grasp anything.

Countless thoughts passed through my mind, thinking that thousands of years had passed, but in fact it was only in an instant.

Shen Pearl gently pushed him away, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You go back to the Marshal's Mansion to handle official business, I want to be alone in the room for a while." ”

Li Li shook his head and looked at her fixedly, "I'm not going anywhere, Pearl, I beg you not to think nonsense, don't misunderstand my heart." ”

She smiled at him unconsciously, there was clearly a shadow of him like a jade slender (body shēn) in her eyes, but her eyes were dim and invisible, after laughing, she waved her sleeves lightly, walked to the inner room, and casually inadvertently instructed: "Go quickly, state affairs are important, come back early, I'll wait for you." ”

Li Jiao saw a touch of bright red between waving his sleeves.

"You're hurt!" He stepped forward and lifted her wrist.

"Really? Why doesn't it hurt at all? She was dazed, looking at her right wrist, which was as red as a red bean.

Li Jiao couldn't help but say, rolled up her sleeves, breathed a sigh of relief, the very slight wound pierced by the bubble nail was no longer bleeding, and she was still distressed. looked down at her snow-white and colorless face, suddenly put his arms together, wrapped her tightly in his arms, and begged softly: "It's my fault, whether you are angry, hit me, scold me, don't ignore it like this." You look like this, you know how distressed I am—"

Shen Pearl didn't answer, Li Jiao touched his hands, and felt more and more cold, even if he was in his palm, he couldn't warm it. Her body no longer trembled, but it was as stiff as blood clotted.

He was anxious to confess, but he didn't know how to speak, so he only lowered his head to find her lips. She seemed to come to life all of a sudden, "um", her head was slightly sideways, avoiding him, then she pushed his arm away, still walking inward, lifted the beaded curtain, and slowly sat down on the (bed chuáng) collapse.

Looking out the window, the wind is warm.

In the past, I was in the past, the willows were still in the past, and now I am thinking, and the rain and snow are falling. said: "I'm right here, don't call anyone to bother me, I don't like it." ”

Li Jiao was extremely remorseful and said, "What do you want to eat, I sent it to someone?" Shi'er will wake up from a nap, and I will bring him to see you in a while? ”

Shen Pearl still looked out the window and said softly: "I don't want to see anyone, I don't want to eat anything." You go out—"

Li Li knew that the person he didn't want to see the most was himself. At this time, even if he forced an explanation, he was afraid that the more he depicted it, the darker it would be, and he couldn't think about it for a while, so he stared at her and exited the room step by step.
