Chapter 47: Shocking
The woman shook her head: "The prince forgives the sin, this letter must be handed over to the prince by hand." ”
Shuo Sai stretched out his hand and sneered: "It's not good to speak, I prefer to use the way of stabbing, who knows what your intentions are...... Emperor, he is over there, you hand it over to this king, and this king will forward it the same! ”
The woman hesitated for a moment, but shook her head.
The corners of Shuo Sai's mouth hooked slightly, and he said coldly: "If you don't want to hand it over to this king, then this king is welcome, take it yourself!" ”
As he spoke, he had already stabbed his sword at the woman with an electric bolt.
The woman held her sword against her breast, and hurriedly retreated.
Shuosai's sword collided with the woman's sword, making a crisp "ding" sound.
"You're good, just use your skills and let this king see what regulations you have!" As he spoke, the sword in Shuosai's hand stabbed again, and one sword was more urgent than the other, like a shadow of a sword, covering the woman.
The woman was forced to take a few steps back, feeling an unprecedented danger, and was thinking about whether to escape first and find another opportunity, but she fell into the encirclement of the guards behind her, which had long been ready to attack.
The guards took advantage of the opportunity, and although the woman avoided the shadow of Shuosai's sword, she was swept into a wave of swords.
Shuo Sai sneered and stood aside.
Standing a few feet behind him, Fu Lin, who was standing under the eaves of a shop, looked surprised.
He knows that his fifth brother, who is second to none among his brothers, likes to practice martial arts since he was a child, and has learned a lot of skills from strange people, and even his mother once said that if Shuo Sai is not a concubine, he does not have the right to inherit at all, but he is afraid that he is his biggest opponent in the competition for the throne.
At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, the fifth brother, who was only 16 years old, had attacked Shaanzhou with the Prince of Yu Duoduo, and successively defeated Li Zicheng's generals Zhang Youzeng and Liu Fangliang, and then even Li Zicheng personally faced the battle, and was also defeated by him.
When the Qing army entered the customs, the fifth brother also killed Ma Shiyao, who was strong in martial arts, and then marched south, defeated Zhu Yousong, the king of Mingfu, and then followed Duoduo to conquer Khalkha, and followed the British prince Azig to defend Datong. During Jiang Huang's rebellion, he also moved to Daizhou, and Daizhou was able to break the siege.
This cousin of his own can be described as weathering the wind and rain, and he will determine the world with a hundred battles.
can dodge his blow, and can be regarded as a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, I don't know who instructed this woman?
The woman swam with the guards surrounding her, observing her surroundings and looking for an opportunity to break through.
But when she saw that Shuo Sai had walked to Fu Lin's side, the two of them whispered a few words, and then seemed to have the intention of leaving, her eyes finally showed anxiety.
She couldn't help but shout: "Ninth Master, do you know the flood in Zhili, where did the silver for disaster relief go?" ”
Fu Lin and Shuo Sai glanced at each other, stopped, and waved his hand: "Let her come over!" ”
The guards stopped, and one of the first said to the woman, "You must not bring a sword before you, but throw your sword over." ”
The woman beckoned to Shuo Sai: "My Zhanlu, not everyone can hold it, since this is the case, there is Prince Lao to help me take care of it first." ”
She threw the sword over, and Shuo Se took it in her hand, and smiled, "You can trust me?" ”
The woman said: "Since the prince is holding Chixiao, he must have some relationship with my master, and besides, at this point, I have nothing to fear." ”
She walked a few steps in front of Fu Lin, stopped, and squatted down to give a blessing: "The folk woman greets the ninth master." ”
Fu Lin asked, "How do you know that I am the Ninth Master?" Who told you to send me a letter, a letter? ”
The woman looked left and right, took out a letter from her bosom, and presented it with both hands: "The person who sent the letter said that after reading this letter, if there is anything unclear, just ask the people's women, but this is not a place to talk, and I hope that the ninth master will take the people's women back to the palace and discuss this matter again." The folk woman had a difficult journey, and it was easy to see the ninth master, and before she could say anything, she was arrested. ”
Shuo Sai on the side took the letter first, checked it, and then handed it to Fu Lin, he sneered: "In front of the ninth master, who else dares to take you?" Just say it. ”
Fu Lin shook his head instead: "There are many people here, it's really not a place to talk, fifth brother, take her into the palace." ”
He said apologetically to Sizhen who was standing on the side: "I wanted to give you a good birthday, but it turned out like this." I will compensate you when I have the opportunity in the future. ”
A smile appeared at the corner of Sizhen's mouth: "I think that this birthday is good, such exquisite swordsmanship, the two masters have made moves, and they can't be seen on weekdays." Besides, the set of frozen stone banana leaf cups was placed on the carriage before, and I also had a bag of chestnuts, which is very good! ”
Fu Lin smiled lovingly: "Compare that cup with chestnuts, and it's just you." ”
Since Shuo Sai came over, his eyes looked at Sizhen from time to time, his expression was half sad and half joyful, at this time, he couldn't help but say: "If you like to look at swords, this king will practice for you again." ”
Fu Lin pulled Shuo Sai and said warnly: "Fifth brother, what we said before, you can't provoke her again, she is not Yilan. ”
Shuo Sai's body stiffened, his face flushed slightly, and he muttered: "I don't mean anything else, I just see her like Yilan, I feel kind, and I want to say a few more words to her......"
Their conversation, heard in Sizhen's ears, but it was like a lightning strike, and she grabbed Shuosai's arm: "Sister Yilan? Are you talking about Jin Yilan? Where is she? ”
Shuo Sai looked at her with some surprise, shook his head and said, "No, she is not surnamed Jin, she is Majia Yilan." ”
"Ma Jia's family, Ma Jia's family, she should have been saved by Ma Jia's family...... Sizhen muttered a few words, looked at Shuo Sai, and said eagerly: "The Yilan you are talking about, is it very similar to me, six years older than me?" ”
Shuo Sai looked at Sizhen and nodded: "It's very similar, at least six or seven points like it, except that her eyebrows are crescent, yours is slightly raised, and the bridge of your nose is higher and straighter, you are like pouring out of a mold......"
"That's right, it's her! It's Sister Yilan! Sizhen smiled happily, and her eyes immediately became moist: "Except for my eyebrows and nose, except for my father, I am more like a mother in other places...... Since I was a child, others have said that I look like Sister Yilan......"
Seeing the look of surprise on the faces of Fulin and Shuosai, she explained: "Sister Yilan and I are cousins, and our mother is a twin sister of the same mother, when I was five years old, my father was awarded the title of General of Pingnan, and went to Yunnan and Guizhou, because my uncle was a general under my father's command, and he wanted to go together, and his family also went, and we were robbed by bandits on the way...... When my father came back from running away those people, I found that Sister Yilan was gone, and I couldn't find it......"
Shuo Sai shook his head: "I haven't heard Yilan say this, she doesn't seem to remember anything before, she only knows that her name is Yilan." I heard from her family that Yilan was not Ma Jia's biological daughter, they picked it up on the road again, and it happened that Ma Jia's daughter fell ill and died at that time, so she regarded Yilan, who was of the same age, as her own daughter......"
Hearing what Shuo Sai said, Si Zhen was crying and laughing, she never let go of Shuo Sai's arm, at this time, she grabbed his arm tightly, and asked repeatedly: "Where is Sister Yilan, where is she, you take me to see her......"
Hearing Sizhen's question, Shuo Sai suddenly shook off her hand, turned around and ran away, running away without saying a word.
Sizhen was dumbfounded, looked around at a loss, and then asked Fulin: "Lord Wang, what's wrong with him?" ”
Fu Lin sighed: "When the fifth brother met Yi Lan, he already had Fu Jin, so Yi Lan married him, he could only be a side Fu Jin, his concubine Fu Jin is not a tolerant person, seeing that the fifth brother was good to Yi Lan, he became jealous, and when she gave birth, he bought off the midwife, which made Yi Lan hemorrhage and went to ......."
"Sister Yilan, she's dead?" Sizhen tried his best to ask this sentence.
Seeing Fu Lin nodding slightly, Sizhen's eyes darkened.
It was easy to hear the news of her relatives, and it was the time of ecstasy, but when she heard such news, under the strong stimulation of joy and sorrow, she fainted because of her anger.
Before she fell to the ground, Fu Lin hugged her and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the palace-"
By the time Sizhen woke up, it was already dusk.
She raised her head from the pillow, looked at Mama Qin with an anxious face on the side of the bed, her teary eyes were hazy, she reached out and touched her face, showing a smile: "Mama, I know the whereabouts of Sister Yilan......"
Before the smile was clearly seen by Mama Qin, it disappeared, and it was tears rippling, and Sizhen cried: "But, Mama, she is no longer here, I can't see her anymore......"
Mama Qin hugged Sizhen in her arms, she had already learned the whole story from Wu Liangfu, and couldn't help but say sadly: "It's okay, it's okay, I heard that Yilan Gege has a son, and you have a little nephew, the emperor said, when you are well, I will take the child into the palace and let you see." ”
"Really? I have a little nephew, I have a little nephew! Sizhen was happy again, as soon as she lifted the quilt, sat up and was about to put on her shoes, and said while looking for shoes, "Mama, I'm already fine, go and tell the emperor now, I'm completely fine." ”
Mama Qin pressed Sizhen back to the bed, wrapped it in a quilt, and said angrily: "Gege, don't listen to the wind and rain, the emperor has explained, if you don't take care of your body, he won't allow you to see the child." Hey, when the slave heard about this day's events, her heart fluttered, why are you so bold? Dare to block that sword? Dare to kick the sword with your feet......"
She patted her chest and said: "Even now, the slave maid's heart is still pounding, if you have any mistakes, how can the slave and maid explain to the prince and the princess?!" The Queen Mother also said, when you wake up, you have to talk about you! ”
Sizhen leaned on Mama Qin's arms and said with tears: "Don't worry, Mama, I have a sense of proportion, and at that time, I couldn't have watched the sword stab at the emperor!" Now that I think about it, that woman was probably just tempting, and she didn't make a cruel move, otherwise, how could I have kicked the sword in her hand off with that kick! By the way, have you heard about the woman's entry into the palace? ”
