Chapter Seventy-Five: Avoidance
The mountains and rivers are far away, the horse-drawn carriages roll over the green ridges, the road is lined with mountains and green trees, and the sky is clear and clean, like washed glass.
Only a few people in the army know Yixuan's identity, and most people think that Zhao Zhen has a delicate prostitute next to him, holding it in the palm of his hand, and he can't leave it for a moment.
While they felt that Zhao Zhen had such a habit, they often marveled at the beauty of this prostitute.
It's really true, people are more delicate than flowers.
The army advanced very quickly, from Jingshi to Datong Mansion in Shanxi, it took only three days. Zhao Zhen ordered the army to stop and recuperate, and then hurry tomorrow.
Datong is still a lot of distance away from Shaanxi Dusi, passing through Ningxia Wei and Liangzhou Wei, all the way down desolate.
Datong is the last prosperous place.
As soon as Zhao Zhen arrived in Datong, the chief military officer of the town guard came to pick him up and wash the dust for him. The chief soldier was named Xue Hongye, with a dark complexion, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a beard that looked very terrifying. When he saw that Zhao Zhen didn't ride a horse, he actually took a carriage, and a beautiful man came down from the carriage, and he felt weird.
"Lord Wang, who is this? Like a! Xue Hongye laughed, and slapped his broad palm on Yixuan's back.
Yixuan was speechless. She had also seen Xue Hongye in her previous life. Xue Hongye was a loyal follower of King Yu and had always disobeyed her. felt that she was a woman, and it was not enough to give orders to him, so that he embarrassed her many times.
Later, she was angry and teased Xue Hongye, making him ugly in front of the soldiers, and he stopped a little.
It's really a narrow road.
Xue Hongye's palm was intercepted by Zhao Zhen halfway, he was stunned, and looked at Zhao Zhen with some suspicion. Zhao Zhen only said lightly: "Okay, go to your house, let's have a few drinks." ”
"Okay! Lord Wang, please! Xue Hongye's face was red with joy.
The army entered the city. The Xue Mansion had already set up a banquet. Zhao Zhen led Yixuan and several generals into the mansion together. During this period, Xue Hongye frequently reviewed Yixuan, and finally couldn't help asking: "Are you Wen Zhiluo's younger brother?" ”
Yixuan has not yet spoken. Zhao Zhen frowned first, "The queen's name is also what you can call?" ”
Xue Hongye's eyes were disdainful, and he muttered, "What queen?" Wen Zhiluo's mind is insidious, where is she worthy of being a queen? ”
Okay, scolding her in front of her, this Xue Hongye is also brave enough.
"Is General Xue any dissatisfaction?" Yi Xuan looked at him with a smile: "Slandering the deceased is your upbringing as a husband?" ”
Zhao Zhen also reprimanded: "The queen is also what you discussed? Shut up! If there is a next time, it will be severely punished! ”
He squeezed Yixuan's hand tightly, and his face seemed to sink a little.
Xue Hongye didn't dare to make a mistake, pursed his lips and stopped talking.
After everyone returned to their seats, the maids served the food, and the soldiers drank heartily. Xue Hongye also ordered the musicians and maiko who were raised at home to come out to help the fun. After dancing a few dances, Xue Hongye asked the Maiko to serve the adults to drink.
Yixuan was too strong to drink too much. Unexpectedly, three Maiko came up to her, one "childe" at a time, and handed the wine glass to her lips. Yixuan was extremely embarrassed and hurriedly pushed: "I don't drink well, so I don't dare to accept it." ”
"Childe drank my cup, so he should give me face." A woman was as soft as a boneless, and slowly crooked onto her.
"Childe is a scholar at first glance, isn't he a military advisor? The slave admires the reader, if I can accompany you......" said a girl.
"I don't know if there is a shortage of maidservants who serve food and clothing. Although the slave is stupid, if she serves her son, she will do her best. ”
The dynasty admired scholars, and the aesthetics tended to be fair and delicate, compared with the Han people sitting here, Yixuan had obvious advantages.
However, she is a woman......
Yi Xuan coughed embarrassedly, glanced at Zhao Zhen, and shook her head at him.
People go to high places. It's normal for the Maiko to want to cling to her, and there's no need to be angry about it.
Zhao Zhen blackened his face and drank all the wine in the wine glass.
- Although I know that it is nothing, it is just that I am inexplicably unhappy.
"Childe is so glamorous! Beauty advises drinking, how can you bear to refuse? "There are soldiers who are heckling.
Xue Hongye laughed: "If the son doesn't drink, doesn't he give Xue someone face?" ”
"Who says I don't drink?" Yixuan smiled slightly, took the Maiko's wine, drank three glasses at once, and then said, "You go and toast other adults, and I'll go out to blow the wind." ”
Yi Xuan got up, her head was dizzy, she barely calmed down, and smiled at everyone. Who knew that Zhao Zhen came from behind and picked her up in full view.
"Don't be pushy."
The two left, and everyone in the space looked at each other at a loss.
Yixuan's cheeks were crimson, her eyes were drunk, and she breathed softly in Zhao Zhen's arms. Zhao Zhen came to a guest room, put Yixuan on the kang, and instructed Shuang'er: "Go and bring a cup of tea." ”
Shuang'er pretended to be a servant and followed Yixuan, and hurriedly went when she heard the words. Yixuan propped her head, raised her eyelids and looked at Zhao Zhen and smiled: "I'm not drunk." ”
"Okay, you're not drunk." Zhao Zhen touched her head.
Yixuan opened her arms to hug him, Zhao Zhen smiled helplessly, sat down on the edge of the kang, and held her in his arms.
"Xue Hongye really hates it...... I hated it before, and I hate it now! Yi Xuan puffed up.
Zhao Zhen didn't know why: "Have you seen him before?" ”
"Of course I've seen ......" Fortunately, she didn't lose her mind, and immediately retorted: "No, I mean, I've heard about my aunt playing tricks on him." ”
Zhao Zhen smiled, "Well, your aunt...... Well done. ”
Yi Xuan was surprised: "Your Highness also knows?" ”
That day, Xue Hongye was having fun visiting the Qinglou, she took people into the Qinglou in the name of official business to get people, put Xue Hongye in a sack, and sent him directly to the court. At that time, Xue Hongye came out of the sack in disheveled clothes, and the people who watched it laughed.
Zhao Zhen nodded, and said: "Xue Hongye is unruly, but he is indeed a general. ”
Shuang'er brought tea in and out. Yixuan took a few sips and asked Zhao Zhen to open the window.
Her cheeks were hot.
"Your Highness, I want to go to Huayan Temple."
"Okay."
Huayan Temple has been war-torn several times, and the dynasty is divided into the upper hall and the lower hall. The upper hall is dominated by the Daxiong Treasure Hall. The lower hall is dominated by scriptures and statues. Yixuan wants to worship the Buddha and enter the incense, so naturally he goes to the temple.
When you enter the mountain gate, you will be greeted by the Daxiong Treasure Hall. During the war, there were many people who came to the temple to burn incense and ask for peace, and Yixuan waited for a while before entering the main hall. Five golden-bodied Buddhas stand on the altar, solemn and solemn, and the murals are complex and magnificent, dazzling.
Yixuan took the incense handed by the monk, knelt on the futon, silently recited three wishes in his heart, then got up, inserted the incense into the incense ding, looked around again, and withdrew.
Zhao Zhen was waiting for her outside the hall.
"What wishes?" Zhao Zhen asked.
"It's just hoping that the war will end and the border will be stable."
Zhao Zhen's eyes flashed with surprise, and he smiled again: "Your wish is different from ordinary women. ”
Zhao Zhen took her hand and slowly walked down the stone steps to the lower hall of Huayan Temple, where there were few people. On the way, I saw green old trees, birds singing and lonely, and from time to time there were monks who bowed their heads and sprinkled sweeps.
In front of the gate of the lower hall, two monks blocked their way and told them that the lower hall was not open to people.
Zhao Zhen took out the token, and the monk glanced at Zhao Zhen incredulously, and said, "Forgive the poor monk for being clumsy and not knowing nobles." Please come with me, prince. ”
Yixuan whispered, "Do they recognize you?" ”
"I'm familiar with their masters."
Yi Xuan secretly called it strange. I didn't expect Zhao Zhen to also associate with monks. When he was in the capital, he would never set foot in the temple unless necessary.
The lower hall is inaccessible, even the monks are limited, and ordinary people can't enter at all. Soon after, the two were taken to a room.
"Master, the prince is here."
After a moment of silence, a deep voice came from the room: "Please come in." ”
Yixuan glanced at Zhao Zhen, saw that there was a hint of worry between his eyebrows, pushed open the door and said, "Pushan, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
The house was lit with fine sandalwood. There is a porcelain jar on the shelf, which is not big, the porcelain jar contains clear water, and there is a lotus flower floating on the water.
Yi Xuan looked at the monk named "Pushan".
He has a round face, fat earlobes, slightly chubby but not fat, similar to the Maitreya Buddha on the mural. At this time, he was sitting cross-legged on the kang, closing his eyes and chanting words, knocking on the wooden fish in his hands. It should be chanting.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, he opened his eyes, put down the wooden fish in his hand with a smile, and asked, "Is Wang Ye'an?" ”
Zhao Zhen nodded and introduced to Pushan: "This is my wife." ”
Pushan was stunned, turned his gaze to Yixuan in confusion, stared at her for a long time, and then smiled again: "I've seen the princess." ”
Yi Xuan bowed his head: "Master Pushan is good." ”
Zhao Zhen and Yixuan went in and sat down, and listened to Pushan say: "I had a dream yesterday, and I dreamed that the golden crow fell in my courtyard, so I knew that a noble person was coming, and today I fulfilled this dream." ”
Zhao Zhen smiled, "I'm coming back for the war." I thought that I would leave these people in the northwest enough to defend against the Tatars. As a result, people are not as good as heaven. ”
How could he have expected that Zhao Shen's men would collude with foreign countries in an attempt to dismantle his defenses in the northwest. However, there are many ghosts who obey Zhao Shen. He came back this time, not only to expel the Tatars, but also to find out those traitors.
Pushan said: "The prince is heroic and powerful. As long as the prince returns, those rebellious ministers will naturally die down. ”
"You don't have to flatter me." Zhao Zhen smiled: "I'm really tired of hearing these words. ”
When Yi Xuan heard this, she smiled. Pushan looked sideways at her.
"I don't know which sister the princess is?"
"The Wen family." Zhao Zhen paused slightly, and then said, "The queen's niece." ”
Pu Shan looked at Yixuan for a while, and sighed: "No wonder, the one who was born and the queen ...... There are some similarities. ”
"What? The master has seen my aunt? ”
She had been to Huayan Temple in her previous life, but she had never seen Pushan. And she likes to travel in micro-clothes, and she doesn't explain her identity, so how did the monks in this temple know?
It's weird.
Pushan glanced at Zhao Zhen and said in silence for a long time: "I have admired the queen's demeanor from afar." ”
"Where?" Yixuan asked.
Kindness is not spoken.
The monks don't speak. He can't lie to Yi Xuan.
Zhao Zhen suddenly spoke: "Pushan once traveled all over the world and stayed in the temple in the capital for a while. It's not surprising to see your aunt. ”
Zhao Zhen's face was gloomy, and the look in his eyes didn't want her to ask again. He gently stroked her cheek again and said, "I still have some things to talk about with Pushan, you go outside and don't run around." ”
