Chapter 65: There will never be a second time
What the?! Wen Ting looked at him in surprise, and then turned into doubt, he had never heard that he had a wife.
Although it was not the first time that Murong Li had heard this sentence, he still felt incredible when he heard it again...... He doesn't even have a concubine, where is the wife?
Wen Ting then pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "It's okay, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines." ”
"Then the Wen envoy has to think about it, Ling Mei will be a concubine when she marries."
Looking at each other, it seems to be calm, but in fact, the dark tide is already surging.
......
After chatting for a while, Wen Ting saluted and said goodbye, but unfortunately his sister Wen Ruoying came to him as soon as he left.
Wen Ruoying also seemed to have not seen him for a long time since the birthday banquet that day, and I didn't expect him to be here today. Wen Ruoying stepped forward and saluted, "I'm sorry to disturb the prince and Master Pei, it's the emperor who wants to see my brother, I know he is here, so I came here without permission." ”
Murong Li looked serious, and then smiled: "Envoy Wen has already gone back." He glanced at Pei Heng and said, "You go and send Miss Wen back." ”
Along the way, Wen Ruoying looked at him intentionally or unintentionally, and then thought of something and asked, "I heard that Sister Lin has returned, I don't know how she is?" ”
Pei Heng was shocked again, "She's fine." Then he called her and asked, "Where did you all go that day?" ”
Wen Ruoying seemed to open the conversation box all of a sudden, and became lively, "We went to the market, I have never seen such a big market, there are so many delicious foods." She snorted, and then said, "I also bought pastries for Brother Pei, did Brother Pei eat it?" ”
He nodded, "Eat." And then where did it go? Did you notice anything wrong with her? ”
"No......," she replied after a moment's thought, "again...... I remember that later we went to a place called Forgotten Sorrow, and it was a strange place, and it was all women...... Later, when we were leaving, my sister said that her chest was a little tight, and she had a headache, so we went back. ”
Forget your worries...... It turned out to be you.
"Send beauty, why did you come back so soon?"
Pei Heng sat down opposite him, and said without changing his face: "Didn't you say that you would only send it back?" I'd like to have a cup of tea there. ”
Murong Li looked up at him, "Do you really want to let such a good girl not marry?" ”
Pei Heng replied seriously: "The prince likes it, and it's not impossible to add a concubine room." ”
"Don't make fun of me, Chang's is enough for me, there was such a big mess at that time, don't toss anymore."
"But then again, thank you for that time."
Murong Li said with a smile: "I said that I believe you and help you, and I also said that the same thing will not happen a second time." ”
"In that case, what do you want to do next?"
Of course, Murong Li knew what he was referring to, now the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and although he is now a confidant of the dynasty, he can't afford to be a favor. "Do you know why he's so favored?"
Pei Heng shook his head.
"In the past, it was said that the mother is more expensive than the son, but now in this world, the son is more expensive than the mother. Different backgrounds naturally lead to different treatments. He paused, and then said: "My mother concubine has followed the current saint since the first emperor, and she has seen many bloody storms and how many bullets and bullets she has dodged, but in the end she can't withstand the warmth of another woman. Maybe my father and Murong Lian's mother really love each other, or maybe my mother has been wishful thinking from beginning to end. ”
His tone seemed to be a little choked, his mother had always been his weakness, and it was also the tenderness in his bones, "Later, when the mother concubine passed away, no one remembered her, and no one remembered her and my son." When my mother was alive, she never let me fight, but now I want to fight, I want to write her name on the imperial tomb! ”
Pei Heng lowered his head and suddenly replied to him firmly: "You will." He didn't look at his eyes, and continued: "But you also know very well about the current situation, Murong Lian is bound to win the throne, and the emperor will only pass it on to him sooner or later." He thought about it and said to him, "Then why don't we push the boat down the river." ”
......
Qi Zhang was instructed to come to Yinglou today to send flowers, Yinglou is Wen Ruoying's residence, she likes all kinds of flowers and plants the most, so the yard is full of all kinds of rare things. A few months ago, she begged the king to ask her eldest brother to take her to the Southern Dynasty with her, Wen Ling knew her thoughts, so naturally she couldn't object anymore, and after she left, her courtyard would be handed over to Qi Zhang to take care of.
But today's Yinglou seems to be a little different, and a sound of breaking porcelain basins can be heard from a distance, Qi Zhang hurriedly went to check, and when he saw that person, he was stunned.
"I've seen the four county lords." He looked at the mess around him and asked, "What is the county lord doing?" ”
"Who are you!" Wen Ruosi said viciously, and then threw the flower pot in the hand of the little guy behind him to the ground, "You outsiders can't take care of the county lord's family affairs!" ”
Qi Zhang sneered, then picked up the gardenia on the ground, pinched the flower branch with one hand and put it in the hand of the little guy next to him, and said: "The four county lords are like this, how can I explain to the little county lord." If the explanation is not good, the king blames the prime minister and punishes the prime minister, and the county lord has to be prepared to suffer the consequences when this grievance comes. ”
Wen Ruosi raised his feet, but he didn't have a posture to leave, and trampled on the flowers on the ground, "You are just a former prime minister, relying on the third brother to appreciate you a little, don't know your identity." She walked over to him and whispered, "Do you think my third brother can do justice for you?" It's as stupid as that woman. "It's just a puppet.
Seeing that she was leaving, Qi Zhang said slowly and slowly with her back to back: "Since the county lord is not afraid of heaven and earth, where does he get the anger." ”
Wen Ruosi stopped, and his eyes were about to burst out with a cold light.
Qi Zhang smiled and walked over slowly, "I finally know why the first king and her brothers like the little lord so much, it turns out to be lined out." ”
Wen Ruosi quickly turned around and slapped him in the face with a backhand, "You have the ability to say it again!" ”
Qi Zhang tilted his face and pulled the corners of his mouth, fortunately, he was used to this kind of thing, he turned his head and looked at her directly, "You can only be a joke if you deserve the four county lords!" ”
Wen Ruosi was completely enraged, and raised his hand to fight again, but was stopped by a scolding voice: "Ruosi! ”
Wen Ruosi looked over, and the movements in his hand immediately stopped, and slowly put it down, "Third brother...... You're everywhere. ”
Wen Ling was wearing a brown coat, and there was still a little sleepiness in his eyes, I am afraid that he had just woken up, only to see him come over, stand in front of Qi Zhang and say to Wen Ruosi: "What are you doing?" ”
Seeing that the ground was in a mess, Wen Lingqi didn't fight, "What's the matter with you, why did you even drop Ruoying's flowers!" ”
This is not the first time she has the impression that he has murdered him, "I'm not happy, I happened to see it, and I blame these flowers for being unlucky." ”
"Then why did you fight Prime Minister Qi?" For a while, his tone became very cold, so cold that Qi Zhang suspected that he was not the gentle son Wen Ling he knew.
"What's the matter, I'm a dignified county lord, and I can't even beat a prime minister? Is that one day even the maid next to me going to ride on my head?! ”
Wen Ling couldn't bear it, "Wen Ruosi! You used to sprinkle and smash things, I also know that you have always been at odds with Ruoying, and you have tolerated it many times, but this time you actually attacked the prime minister, you are more and more ignorant of the rules, and you don't know your identity! ”
Hearing this, Wen Ruosi's tears seemed to be about to come out, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Yes, I don't know the rules, I don't know my identity, from childhood to adulthood, there is only Wen Ruoying in your hearts, but you have never thought that I am also your sister!" She smiled and tilted her head, "Now, I'm still being trained for an outsider." Okay, I'll leave the words down today, I, Wen Ruosi, will be inseparable from Wen Ruoying in the future! ”
Qi Zhang looked at her back, and was distracted for a while, as if he saw another self at that time. He who is full of resentment swears revenge. Looking at the person next to him who caused this situation, I don't know what kind of person he is? When I first saw him, he was gentle and elegant, although he was not good at strategy, but he still had to pretend to be ambitious lamely, and he was still a child in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be a scheming king at all times. Obviously, that is his own sister, but he wants to help him......
Why would God let a person who was already dead meet such a person who treated him so well, why was it destined for him to live up to his trust......
Wen Ling turned his head and touched the place where there was still a red slap mark with his Qianqian jade hand, causing Qi Zhang to tremble.
"It's okay."
Qi Zhang was stunned and said, "It's okay." ”
Wen Ling put his hand down, "Ruosi is like that, don't take it to heart." ”
"No, she's the county lord after all. If there is nothing to do, the minister will retire first. With that, he was leaving.
Wen Ling stood in place and suddenly stopped him: "Qi Zhang." ”
Qi Zhang stopped his steps, didn't look back, didn't ask him anything, just stood like this.
This was the first time in his memory that he said such serious words to him: "If one day, I will no longer have the ability to protect you, I hope you will protect yourself." ”
His throat moved, and he wanted him to protect himself? He thought that no one cared about him so much in his life, but in fact, if he thought about it carefully, in the past 20 years in the Zhang family, how could their so-called family members tell him to protect themselves, and how could they have helped him when he needed it most, even if he spoke out to help him, in the end it was just the name of the second son of the Zhang family.
And he saved him, gave him a place, gave him the capital to live...... But he was going to help another person.
In the first month he came, he seemed to have arranged his background as if he had arranged everything, and no one asked where he was from or where his family lived, but he only knew a military advisor named Qi Zhang. He also knew that only Wen Ling could do this for him.
Then one day he saw him sitting alone in the pavilion drinking alone, so he walked over and retreated from the crowd.
That day was the first time Wen Ling asked about his background, and he replied: "I was kicked out by my parents, and I fled all the way to this place. ”
