Chapter 26: May All the Birds Be Bound (3)
In the afternoon, when Wen Lian came to the Chinese Pavilion, Pei Yaowei was sitting on the Luohan couch under the window, writing slowly.
She leaned over to take a look, but saw that on the messy paper manuscript, there were all kinds of fonts, without exception, all of them were the same word-simulant.
Wen felt something, looked at her, and frowned.
Holding the sour plum soup that the maid had just scooped out of the ice jian, Wen Lian took a shallow sip, and then listened to Yao Wei ask, "It's all disposed of?" β
She nodded, reassuring her.
Pei Yaowei put down her pen, stepped back from her left and right, looked at Wen Lian and asked, "What did you say to Uncle Ning Wang?" β
When the words landed, I saw Wen Lian's eyes roll. Pei Yaowei was stunned in her heart at the moment, and without waiting for her to speak, she immediately asked again: "You didn't tell the truth?" β
Before, when the two discussed this matter in the middle of the night, they had already considered the link of His Royal Highness King Ning. She once instructed Wen Lian, if she alarmed King Ning, she told her to tell the truth in front of Uncle Wang, and tell the ins and outs of this incident one by one.
At that time, Wen Lian's mind was still a little confused, and when she heard her words at first glance, she was very surprised, and asked her directly, to tell the truth, that is to push Qingchen out, she plans to do this, is it really angry, and plans to give up that girl?
"What shall I give? Is she something I can give up if I want to? Pei Yaowei replied to her angrily, "Besides, don't you know what kind of temper Uncle Ning Wang has?" You just have to be frank, what do you say, maybe Uncle Wang knows the ins and outs, and he will reward that girl! β
Wen Lian thought about her words, understood it in her brain, and felt reasonable, and promised it well at that time.
But looking at it now, it's clear that it's not the case anymore.
"What's the matter, you're all teasing me? As soon as I turned my head, I was given a two-sided three-sided knife? β
Pei Yaowei was a little angry, and even more anxious.
"Look at you, what's the hurry?" Wen said pitifully, "I didn't do what we discussed, and I didn't tell Uncle Wang the truth." But you see, right now, isn't it okay? β
Immediately, she roughly repeated the words in front of King Ning to her.
Pei Yao listened and looked at her with a heavy expression.
Wen Lian smiled and persuaded: "Okay, don't be angry with me, this matter is bigger, no matter how big it is, although it can't give birth to strong winds and waves, but after all, it is also a trouble, the muddy water is not so easy to travel, the Chu Wangfu can be picked out, don't squeeze in, between me and the Pan family, there is also a lot of debt." β
How could Pei Yaowei not understand this truth? It's just that this matter, in the final analysis, was done lightly, and after making such a fuss, Chu Wangfu stayed out of the matter, and she always didn't feel good in her heart.
Wen Lian knew what she thought, otherwise, she would not have come to such a trick to cut first and then play. After thinking about it, she said: "Actually, Qingchen did this, it was originally instigated by me behind my back, and now I take this matter, it looks like I am taking the blame for her, but in fact, didn't you also say it, if Uncle Ning Wang knew the cause and effect, maybe he would reward her heavily, so I think I robbed her of the credit!" β
Pei Yao was silent for a long time and sighed deeply.
She said: "Beside Xiangyu, there were originally two maids, and in addition to Yu Xu, there was also a girl named Yu Zhi. β
"Originally, I didn't like either of these two maids. Yu Xu, deep thoughts, when facing me, talk and do things, always hidden, and later learned that she is a baby, I feel at ease, but it is better. As for Yu Zhiβ"
"That girl has been following each other since she was a child, their master and servant's life has always been difficult, and the temperament cultivated in the midst of hardship will inevitably deviate, and everything is common to repay grievances with grievances, and to fight evil with evil. Later, after some things, she just understood some right and wrong, but on the eve of my wedding, she was sent by the Empress Dowager Liang to assassinate me...... Killed by mistake. β
This time, when Qingchen confessed to her, he used the sentence 'treat others the way they do'. This sentence reminded her of Yu Zhilai again.
In the past, this was the principle of teaching each other.
But Pei Yao himself didn't believe this.
Now that she thinks of Yu Zhi, in addition to being sad, she will have regrets - regret that the little girl has not had time to grow up, and she has no chance.
She told Wen Lian that she wanted to use this incident to let Qingchen learn a lesson and have a long memory, so she completely broke off the idea of repaying grievances with resentment. It can be regarded as turning the regret for Yu Zhi into hope and putting it on Qingchen.
Therefore, she allowed herself to blame, she was afraid, and she was uneasy about all the things she was going to cause.
She hopes that she can regret it more, and only if she regrets it enough, can she not have hidden dangers again and again.
Wen Lian listened to her words, pondered for a long time, and smiled lightly.
"You don't have to worry too much." She said calmly, "Light dust is good. Clever and kind - otherwise I wouldn't be honest with you. β
That's right, Pei Yaowei nodded approvingly.
Wen Lian continued: "This hope of yours will not be disappointed. β
The two chatted for a long time, and Wen Lian was caught off guard for a while, and some ink was stained on the sleeves of her plain white clothes, which attracted her attention to the word "proposed" in that case.
I pulled out a piece of paper from it, and when I looked at it, it was Tang Li.
The upright words look really different from Pan Xi himself.
"Speaking ......of which," she remembered something, and looked at Pei Yaowei with an inquiring gaze, "This matter, it stands to reason that if you really don't want to 'trouble' me, there should be a way not to trouble, right?" β
Pei Yaowei acted as if she hadn't heard it, pretending to be stupid and stunned, and didn't speak.
Wen Lian smiled silently and continued: "Qingchen confessed to you in the middle of the night, if you want to make a big deal, if you have the kung fu to greet me, you can ask someone to send the two brothers and sisters of the Pan family back quietly!" But you didn't, why is that? β
"Why? What else could it be? Pei Yao's face was upright, "Naturally, it is to give you Zhang Luo's 'handle', so that it will be convenient for you to balance the Pan family in the future!" β
Wen Lian immediately sneered: "Huh! They also deserve my checks and balances? Who I want to deal with, does it matter if I have a handle or not? β
Pei Yaowei raised her eyebrows and was silent.
Wen Lian leaned closer and said in a low voice: "You, you actually ...... Don't you want Pan to enter the house, right? β
Pei Yao's movement of turning his finger stopped, and he lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Lian.
Do you want Pan to enter the house?
The answer, of course, is no.
When Xiao Di explained this matter to her at that time, she was also bitter, and she also pretended to be obedient and obedient, and never disobeyed his wishes, but secretly, she never thought of letting Pan Yi enter the mansion.
"I have also read "Lao Tzu", what 'will be weak, will be strong; If you want to abolish it, you will rejuvenate it. I understand the truth. He couldn't find fault with him when he thought so, but who made him unlucky enough to marry me first? β
Pei Yao said, sighed regretfully, and continued: "Just with the appearance of Pan Shisheng, I can't let her enter the mansion - even if the Pan family changes people?" β
Wen Lian glanced at her, and said in her heart, can you be happy to change someone else?
After a pause, she laughed casually: "Are you angry with others?" β
Pei Yao snorted: "I don't want to make myself uncomfortable." β
Looking at Pan Xi, it is inevitable that he will think of Pan Tian. It's one thing for her to be reluctant to see Xiao Di get close to such a person, and in addition, when she thinks of Pan Tian, she will also think of her poor second brother. After a long time, she was afraid that she was not so open-minded, and if she had any crooked thoughts, she would really be angry with others at that time.
"Besides, Pan Xi ......" Pei Yao asked quietly: "If you don't enter the Chu Palace, does it have to be a bad thing for her?" β
"Nature is not a bad thing." Hearing this, Wen Lian couldn't help but sigh, "If you want me to say, that girl doesn't know if it's a blessing that she has cultivated in several lifetimes, and she met such a fool as you-" She looked at her with complicated eyes, "I was killed by her, not to mention revenge, but I still have the heart to save her?" β
Wen Lian thinks that he is the person who knows Pei Yaowei best in this world.
She knew that she had been kind and heroic since she was a child, chivalrous, and it was not surprising that she could have the mind to save the enemy, but there were still some reasons missing.
"You specially instructed me to let Pan Niangniang leave Pan Yi behind, isn't it just to keep her safe? Otherwise, she can't enter the Chu Palace, so she will go back with Pan Quan, what is the obstacle with you? Wen said pitifully, "I just don't understand, Pan Xiang is a person who has done a lot of evil, why do you have compassion for her?" β
Pei Yao smiled slowly, "She reminds me of someone." β
Wen Lian asked her who she was.
She said, "Yes." β
Wen Lian was slightly stunned.
Then, Pei Yaowei told Wen Lian that she saw her release the yellow oriole outside Pan Xi's residence that day.
"At that time, she said, 'Birds love the old forest'. I looked at it coldly, and I felt that her true nature was still untouched. Later, I asked Qingchen to check her experience when she was a childβshe had never been treated well since she was a child......"
Pei's husband and wife are harmonious, father and son are filial, Pei Yao herself grew up in a harmonious environment, before Xiao Di, she has never suffered any losses or humiliations, for people in difficult situations, she may never be able to empathize, but she will always be the most willing to pity and sympathize with the people in this world.
As she spoke, she pointed to the word 'simulated' in her pen and said to Wen Lian: "Look at her nameβ'simulated'βhow similar it is to Xiang Yu!" It's like me, so after she turns twelve, Rong is also with me, and decline is also with me, which is actually very wronged. And Pan is now in the shape of Pan Tian, so that Pan can be used like this? β
She said: "Just for the sake of getting along, I also want to give her a chance to see where she can go in the future." β
Wen Lian listened to her quietly, and for a while, her mood was extremely complicated.
"You......" she smiled helplessly, "After so many years, it really hasn't changed at all." β
Yao Wei thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" β
Wen Lian opened her mouth, but she couldn't answer.
