Chapter 208: Relying on Men
"Then the princess is talking about ......"
"Me. When I first arrived in the Imperial City. Wanxiang told Qiu Di without reservation: "Don't forget, when I first arrived in the imperial city, I was just the prince's secret guard, a subordinate.
Like you, you have to kneel on the ground at every turn. I still remember that the day I first arrived in the imperial city was the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, which happened to be the last day of the Lantern Festival.
I wanted to go out to see, but the prince asked me to die outside with a cold face, and I knelt on the ground like you. At that time, the prince looked at the top of my head, probably as if I saw the top of your head. ”
"Princess......
"The moment you knelt down, I understood why you rejected Liang Cuo." Wanxiang reached out and pulled up Qiu Di on the ground, opened her hands and couldn't help but sigh: "What a beautiful pair of hands, ground like this." ”
Qiu Di hung his head and replied: "This is the life of a slave, and she is destined to be born well." ”
"No one is born cheap, even if he is born in the emperor's family, there will still be deaths and exile."
The master and servant wanted to look at each other, and Wanxiang looked at Qiu Di as if she had looked at Qi'er before, and this look made Qiu Di settle down and sit opposite Wanxiang a little bit: "In the heart of the slave and maid, this world is unfair."
is also from a slave background, as long as a man fights for his life regardless of everything, he will have the opportunity to make contributions and turn over. What about women? What do women rely on? ”
Wanxiang blinked her eyes and suddenly smiled: "Rely on men." ”
"What?"
In Qiu Di's heart, Wanxiang is an extraordinary existence, she and Xiao Huaijin complement each other with one heart, and Wanxiang will do it for him what Xiao Huaijin can't do.
The Tibetan Incense Pavilion she is in charge of looks like a yellow bird that can only sing, but it is actually an eagle that sees the world and shoots ruthlessly, quietly standing on Xiao Huaijin's shoulder and waiting for an opportunity.
So Qiu Di couldn't believe that Wanxiang would say such a thing.
"I was originally the daughter of the Ten Thousand Poison Cave Poison Venerable, who in the rivers and lakes is not afraid? It's not cheap to be born like this, but so what?
If it weren't for the prince, I wouldn't have been able to turn over, and maybe I wouldn't even have lost my life. If your life is gone, what's the use of those businesses, martial arts, and even the position of regent?
I'm relying on men to admit what's wrong with that. Life is like this, and few people have been able to climb to a high position alone.
Those founding emperors were also men, but who didn't have three or two strategists and three or five battles to die for them? Your chances are hard to come by. If you can use it without having to support it yourself, it's stupid. ”
"So, the princess wants to call me...... Accept General Liang? ”
Wanxiang waved her hand: "I don't want you to accept it. I have the same meaning as the prince, mutual affection is fundamental, and it is best to come naturally.
I just want to tell you that even if you are my personal maid, there is no need to despise yourself, and there is no need to feel that you should not climb high, your high and self-esteem are worthless in front of the people you love.
Since you love, you can say it frankly, and boldly open your chopsticks to clip what you want to eat. It is the most ridiculous to retreat in cringe before it starts. No one will make up for you. ”
No one has ever said such a thing to Qiu Di, she has always bowed her head and behaved, and today she actually raised her head in front of the princess regent.
Wanxiang raised her hand and pulled out the box in front of her, took out two cyan porcelain jars from it and pushed them in front of Qiu Di: "One for yourself to keep for your hands, and one for you to bring back to okra."
I am your master, and I say that you are worthy of you. If someone dares to gossip, I will break his mouth. ”
Qiu Di took the porcelain jar and opened it to see that it was white and translucent, with a faint pear fragrance.
This is the princess's thing, and when the palace concubine sees a woman who has to pay a few respects, Qiu Di can't believe that she will use the same thing as her.
She held the porcelain jar tightly, she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, and she couldn't express her gratitude in a fluttering word.
So he slammed his forehead on the ground, and the floor that was really smashed with a 'bang', frightened that Wanxiang, who was about to make tea, blinked hurriedly: "Okay, let's go on, the ground has been damaged by you and you have to repair it." ”
"The princess's words, Qiu Di has written them down."
"Hmm. Liang Cuo: Hasn't left yet? ”
"Yes, discuss with the prince in the study about the Fengyang soldiers."
"You go to the study and deliver some pastries."
Qiu Di raised his head: "But neither the prince nor General Liang have the habit of eating cakes at this time." ”
"You just have to send it."
"Yes."
Qiu Di held the two porcelain pots and turned to withdraw, ready to go to the small kitchen to get some pastries and send them to the study.
It was probably too hot in the summer, and Wanxiang only felt that her breathing had become more and more difficult recently, so she leaned on the cushion alone and breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing when the weather would turn cold. Leaning on the corner of the desk, he slowly walked to the edge of the bed.
The leaves were blown by the wind, and Juanxiang just walked to the dressing table and couldn't help but stop and look out.
The night is vast and deep, and the lonely moon outside the window is being swallowed up by dark clouds little by little, as if a rainstorm is approaching. In the courtyard, the shadows of the trees were faintly discerning, and there were a few small birds hidden in the leaves.
She stood in front of the dressing table and reached out to take off her red hairband, listening to the wind and waiting for the rain. But what was waiting for was a rush of footsteps, and Qiu Di, who had just gone out not long ago, suddenly turned back, hurriedly pushed open the door and shouted: "Princess!" ”
When she shouted, Wanxiang's heart felt bad. Clenched the headband in his hand and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Letter from Beixun."
"Letter from this time?" The result of Wanxiang's doubtful letterhead, opened it to read the contents of the letter, Wanxiang's brows just frowned, and a flash of light outside crossed the sky, followed by a thunderstorm.
Akika muttered softly, "The heavy rain is coming." ”
"Slave go and close the window." Saying that, Qiu Di hurriedly walked out, and when he went out, he happened to meet Xiao Huaijin, he was also as anxious as Qiu Di, and he didn't greet him, as if he hadn't heard Qiu Di's sentence of 'Wangye', he just went into the bedroom, and called softly in his mouth: "Wan'er." ”
Wanxiang raised her eyes and saw Xiao Huaijin's expression in a hurry: "You're not scared, are you?" ”
"How easy is it to be scared?" As soon as she finished speaking, Wanxiang sat in front of the dressing table and suddenly felt a palpitation, covering her heart for a long time without saying the second half of the sentence, her face was as pale as ashes.
Xiao Huaijin turned around and rummaged in the medicine box, and Wanxiang stretched out her hand to call him, but she couldn't say anything.
Finally, he found an inconspicuous carved wooden box from a pile of bottles and cans, in which there were not many pills but they were neatly arranged.
He took out the pill and hurriedly got up and walked to Wanxiang's side, stuffed the pill into Wanxiang's mouth and poured two sips of tea into it, Wanxiang's face finally eased, and her breathing became smoother.
Xiao Huaijin asked her with concern and anxiety: "Are you better?" ”
Wanxiang reached out and grabbed Xiao Huaijin's sleeve, and handed the letter from Beixun to Xiao Huaijin: "Lord Wang...... I'm going to Beixun......"
Xiao Huaijin finished the incense letter and read it by candlelight. Wanxiang pushed Xiao Huaijin away and got up to get the scimitar on the knife stand: "I'm going to kill them...... Bloodbathed in Myokin. ”
"You can't go."
Hearing this, Wanxiang turned around and glared at Xiao Huaijin: "Why? Aunt Red, that's Aunt Red! Do you know how important Aunt Red is to us? How important is it to me?!
They poisoned Aunt Hong's head, and their hands had already reached into the Tibetan Incense Pavilion, Lord Wang! Can you still bear it? ”
Since the last time two girls died inexplicably, Wanxiang has been looking at the Miao Yuan unpleasantly, and wants to demolish the Miao Yuan to kill Xiao Huaiyue's sharp spirit all the time.
Knowing that Aunt Hong was poisoned, Wanxiang lost her square inch even more. In her heart, she just wanted to tear down that unsightly place.
Seeing Xiao Huaijin standing in place expressionlessly, Wanxiang turned around and left, and was pulled back by Xiao Huaijin just two steps out: "They just want to wait for you to go back, Xiao Huaiyue is using Aunt Hong to lure you back." Can't you see that? ”
“……”
"That's what you should have thought of."
Seeing that she began to calm down, Xiao Huaijin reached out to brush away the messy hair on her face, and told Wanxiang softly: "Since he has done this part, let's completely lift the Miaoyuan to the surface."
Move to the court. You've already lost a child, do you want to be so impulsive? ”
"How much sin does it take to move to the court? What's more, I haven't been able to hold the handle of the temple several times, let alone the appropriate evidence......"
"Yes." Xiao Huaijin reminded Wanxiang: "It's like when you assassinated Yuanhou." ”
"Yes, what the prince said is right, there will always be a way. I'm going to kill a few useless marquis ministers and blame the Miaoin...... Yes, that's all. Just from ......"
Wanxiang lowered her head and thought about all the people who could move in the middle of the court, and she didn't think of a suitable one after thinking about it. She looked at Xiao Huaijin eagerly: "Lord Wang." ”
"These are all left to Liang Cuo. You don't have to think about anything, you know? ”
"No, Liang is wrong."
"You don't believe her outstretch?"
"I don't believe in his methods." Wanxiang shook her head and pushed Xiao Huaijin away: "This doesn't work, it's not appropriate." I still want to go back to Beixun. ”
"Liyunqi is in Beixun." Xiao Huaijin followed Wanxiang to the dressing table and reminded: "He's here, Aunt Hong will be fine." ”
This will be Wanxiang to remember, and my brother is still in Beixun.
Liyunqi's stabbing technique is very similar to Wanxiang's, and when he followed Xiao Huaihui in the past, he also made Wanxiang suffer a lot of losses.
So Wanxiang and Xiao Huaijin said: "Call my brother to go, even if the technique of the Miao Yuan is similar to the Tibetan Xiang Pavilion, there must be differences, and my brother will definitely be able to do it." ”
Xiao Huaijin pressed the person to the dressing table and asked her to sit down, and replied in her mouth: "Okay, I'll call my brother to go." ”
"Those medicines must have been prepared according to my prescription, she knows the prescription but does not know the dosage of the medicine, you have to tell my brother. Even if it's half a penny, the toxicity is very different.
You must tell your brother to be careful. ”
"Don't worry." Xiao Huaijin coaxed well: "I will definitely ask someone to pass on your words." Aunt Hong will be fine. ”
"And."
Xiao Huaijin sat beside Wanxiang and responded patiently: "You say." ”
