Chapter 3: Gradually Writing to Farewell (3)
Negotiable?
Whether it is Pei Yaowei today or Xiao Di today, they were quite surprised when they heard this.
Since the defeat of the Chen State and the division of the land of the Chen family by Liang Zhou, the two countries have been fighting and resting, and during the year of Jiazi, it has hardly stopped. At the beginning of the fourth year of Yan Ping, after nearly two years of fighting, the two countries were almost defeated, and no one was good.
The matter of peace was put on the agenda, and Princess Zhen'an took the initiative to propose that Zhou Guo was willing to send his daughter and relatives, and Xiao Zhu had no objection to this. That is, Yuwen Zhijun sent an envoy to Liang, and in May, Yuwen Rou, the lord of Ningyi County, sent her to Liang, and in May, Yuwen Rou entered the palace and was named Concubine De.
Since then, Liang Zhou has temporarily ushered in a period of peace and quiet, until this time, Pan's rebellion, Zhou Guo's actions behind his back, this layer of window paper with the word 'Taiping' written on it, it is estimated that it will not be long before it will be pierced.
Thinking of this, Pei Yao replied to the entrustment of the county lord of Pinbishan, and felt worried.
When he was not married, he often served the Son of Heaven in Lingyun Palace, and occasionally participated in government affairs, and was once nicknamed 'the lady of the boudoir' by Pei Gong.
Such a person, when the deadline is approaching, the most difficult to relax is the Zhou State, who is fashionable and has internal and external troubles, and national strength is worried?
She really hoped that Xiao Di could ask her why.
After Xiao Di pondered for a moment, he did ask.
He said: "If my father asks the reason, how does my cousin want Gu to answer?" β
"Ahem...... "Ahem the county lord of Bishan took a sip of water and slowly sat back down, "Your Highness, just tell Your Majesty what the courtiers said, Your Majesty will understand the reason, and there is no need to say more." β
Xiao Di's heart sank slightly, and Pei Yaowei became more and more surprised.
Lord Bishan: This is ...... Do you want to guard against Xiao Di?
However, at that time, the wind and waves were calm, he was a stable and stable prince of a country, such an entrustment could be entrusted, but she was unwilling to speak out about the reason?
Pei Yao thought about it for a long time and didn't understand, when Xiao Di got up to say goodbye, she tried to identify the person behind the curtain with his gaze, and she wanted to know what kind of expression this 'boudoir girl' was at this moment.
But in the end, nothing was found.
Xiao Di stood by the door. His eyes were far away from the window, and there was no place to go, and he was still thinking about the words of the county lord of Bishan in his heart. For a moment, he wanted to go back and ask again, but in the end, he couldn't help but be curious.
Pei Yaowei clearly realized that at this moment, in addition to curiosity, he was a little more vigilant.
The door creaked open, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stepped out of the door in a trance, and before he could raise his head, he first bumped into a personβ
"Oopsββ!"
A hurried exclamation brought his consciousness back to reality. Xiao Di settled down, raised his eyes, and met the woman's pitiful gaze.
Pan Tian seemed to be about to bring the medicine in to her mother, but she was in a hurry, and unexpectedly bumped into the prince who had just left the door, and now the bowl was turned over, and the medicine was spilled, and the bitter medicine soup pounced on her chest, not to mention the wet pale clothes, the skin and flesh exposed outside were originally extremely snow-white, and now they were also red, lining her sad and tearful eyes, which was really pitiful.
Pei Yaowei wanted to scold when she saw it.
Pan Tian himself was born very well, black hair like clouds, arrogant like jade, I think that Pan Xian, who I saw in Lingcheng a few days ago, was born very well, but compared to her sister, she is a little similar, but she always seems to have lost her aura, almost taste.
Frightened in wet clothes, shy and timid, such a beautiful scenery, how many men can not sway at first glance?
She was so angry that she couldn't react for half a beat, and it took a long time before she realized that in addition to being angry, she also had a lot of irony and abruptness, which were ...... Is it Xiao Di's mood?
It's worth digging into!
She was thinking about it, so she lowered her head as if unintentionally and glanced at the hem of Pan Tian's skirt. Xiao Di measured it in his heart, and in an instant, he matched this skirt with a certain scene in his memory.
It turned out that the moment he stopped at the door, his eyes wandered, and he had inadvertently caught a glimpse of the skirt. The same pattern, the same color, at that time, the owner of the skirt was standing on the side of the door, he was just a maid at first, and didn't think much about it, but now it seems that the origin of this 'maid' is really big!
"Mrs. Pei," Xiao Di took a slight step back from the side, took the initiative to take responsibility, and apologized to her: "The lonely footsteps are in a hurry, I am shocking Mrs., please forgive Mrs. for the rudeness." β
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious, it's the concubine's fault." Pan Tian looked remorseful and at a loss, and said: "The concubine was in turmoil, she only thought about sending the medicine to her mother earlier, but she didn't look at the road like a blind man for a while, and collided with His Highness, please forgive Your Highness!" β
She was still holding the tray in her hand, and as she spoke, she knelt down like that.
Xiao Di had the heart to help, but his hand was raised slightly, and he immediately took it back.
Pei Yaowei clearly heard the word 'avoiding suspicion' in his heart, and he almost didn't have fun.
"Madame doesn't have to be polite, please get up." He put his hands behind his back, and didn't care that Pan Tian was still kneeling on the ground, and only said lightly: "The county lord is still waiting for medicine, and the lady should also go and change her clothes, so she will stay soon." β
After that, he bowed his head and wanted to leave.
Pan Tian was anxious, "-Your Highness! β
Xiao Di sighed secretly, turned around and asked, "Madame, is there anything else?" β
Seeing him stay, Pan Tian's face was slightly relaxed, and then he became shy again.
She hung her head slightly, bit her lip lightly, and said softly: "Your Highness, the concubine has a word, I know that I am offended, but I ......" After a long time, she raised her head as if she had the courage to look at him with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said: "It is an unexpected joy to see His Highness today, and I don't know when I will have this opportunity in the future, it is rude, and I also ask Your Highness to ask the concubine a question, okay?" β
Xu recognized her character from the beginning, Xiao Di looked at her at this time, and he was already impatient in his heart, but he didn't say that he tore his face, turned his head and left.
With his consent, Pan Tian was like a life-saving straw, his face flashed with joy, and he pondered for a moment before he said: "The concubine is a woman, and it stands to reason that she should not be in the government, but in recent days, her grandson's career has not been smooth, and at home, she is often depressed and depressed, and the concubine is really worried, and she doesn't know what to do." β
As she spoke, she glanced at Xiao Di cautiously.
"The concubine knows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a virtuous lord, if the grandson has any offenses in the past, I hope that His Royal Highness has a lot of adults, don't worry about him generally......" After a pause, she gritted her teeth and said: "If you give him a way to go, you will also give the concubine a way to live, and the concubine is willing to repay it with all her heart, and I only ask Your Highness to be gracious!" β
After speaking, she leaned over and kowtowed, full of sincerity.
Xiao Di listened with one ear and one ear, originally bored, but after listening to her last sentence, she also followed suit.
Giving back?
These four words are really enough to make people reverie. He silently felt a little grievance in his heart, and had the heart to ask Pei Yaoge, the daughter-in-law, was his reputation so bad in the past? Instead, she asked her to take out the women of a good family to protect the safety of the family, so she took the initiative to dedicate herself to the posture of the bully landlord to flatter?
"The road of the second son's career is connected with the life of the lady?" After thinking about it, Xiao Di simply smiled a little, and said with no clear meaning: "Madame's words, I really don't understand." β
Pan Tian twisted for a long time, and slowly rolled up his sleeves.
On the lotus-like arm, several scars were clearly visible, blue and purple, stabbing Pei Yao straight into the fire.
It's shameless!
This woman is so shameless!
If she and Pan Tian were still alive at the moment, then she would definitely find an opportunity to tighten her collar, slap her twice first, and then ask a good question: It's okay if you hook up with someone yourself, why do you have to pour dirty water on my brother? Where is he sorry for you?
On the one hand, she was angry, but on the other hand, she was also really surprised-she didn't expect that a proud Pan Tian would do such a self-degrading thing, which is really unseemly!
Xiao Di only glanced at it hurriedly, and conveniently looked away.
"Madame, please respect yourself." He said, "Besides, counting nine cold days, it's not good to freeze your body." β
"Your Highness!" Pan Tian hurriedly said: "Does Your Highness think that the concubine is shameless?" β¦β¦ Oh, that's it, the concubine also admits it! But please be gracious, Your Highness! Either give the outer son a way to go, or ...... I asked His Royal Highness to save the concubine, such a day, the concubine really can't live a day......"
Her voice gradually lowered, and she sat on the ground dejectedly, crying and laughing, not at all like a fake.
Pei Yaowei was in a trance for her appearance, and for a moment, she even thought, could her brother really have such a tyrannical side, so he forced Pan Tian to be like this?
It's Xiao Di, who is calmer than her.
He looked left and right at the silent inner courtyard, thought about it, and finally came closer, stretched out his hand to help the people on the ground up.
Pan Tian got up, and he immediately retreated.
"Madame don't worry," he said with a faint smile, "The second prince is a talented man, a usable person in the imperial court, and his future in the future is unlimited." Madame just has to wait for the first product Mrs. β
When Pan Tian heard this, his brows frowned imperceptibly, and he was about to speak, when he heard Xiao Di say again: "The county lord is uneasy, and his wife is a filial daughter, and he also admires it, so he won't disturb the mother and daughter." β
After saying this time, he didn't care about Pan Tian's reaction, bowed his head, and left.
Xu Guogong's birthday banquet has not yet ended, and everything is still lively.
Coming out of Bishan Garden, after not walking for a while, Pan Jie hurriedly greeted him, and he didn't know if he came after hearing the news, or if he had been waiting outside.
"Your Highness," Pan Jie saluted as he approached, his face still worried, "...... the county lord there"
"The county lord's heart for the country and his family is the same as that of Pan Gong, and he understands it in his heart." Xiao Di said vaguely, "It's not too early, and Gu has to go back to the palace to reply to his father earlier, so I'll go." Today is Pan Gong's great joy, and before the banquet, Pan Gong has to enjoy himself. β
When Pan Jieyan heard this, he was polite and personally sent people to the door. Xiao Di was just about to get into the car, as if he remembered something, he paused, and looked back at Pan Jie.
"Oh, that's rightβ" He smiled on his lips, but his eyes were very clear, "Pan Gong, the county lord is sick, and there should be more people to serve in Bishan Garden, otherwise, it will be a mistake." β
When Pan Jie's back sank, he didn't dare to raise his head, so he could only say yes.
