Chapter Twenty-Three: Helping Shen Yi (1)
Yan Beishen quickly moved in front of the two of us, and just as Long Shili was about to raise his hand to slap me again, he grabbed her hand halfway.
"Brother Beishen, why did you come?"
Of course he will come, and when I left last night, I told him that I had asked him for help this morning.
"If I don't come, how many more are you going to hit her?"
Long Shili didn't expect things to turn out like this, she became a little timid, but I knew that she was acting again, once or twice, pretending to be innocent, as if she was the most pitiful in the world, and she was the only one in the world.
"Forget it, it's just a slap in the face."
The old thing repeats itself, and I don't believe that Long Shili can still pretend.
Sure enough, after she heard me say this, she immediately jumped a foot away, "It's stupid to be deceived by you once, and I'm stupid to be fooled by you twice." ”
And Yan Beishen was also surprised to see Long Shili's reaction, "What are you doing?" ”
Long Shili still knows how to beat people at every turn after so many years, but she can plan this series of things behind her back to frame Qin Chi, maybe there is another master behind her back, but who will this master be?
"I'm a person who will repay you, but today for the sake of Lord Qing, I will let you go, but next time you will not be so lucky."
The reason why I let her go is not because I am magnanimous, but because I know that revenge at this time will make me look too ungraceful, I want more than just this slap, I want her Long Shili's life.
Long Shili knew that it would not be beneficial to continue to stay, so he left angrily, and Yan Beili also asked the maids who were waiting in the room to withdraw.
At this moment, there were only two of us left in the room, Yan Beishen stepped forward to check my cheeks, and then said a little angrily, "You can obviously dodge, why don't you hide?" ”
I thought he couldn't see so far away just now, I knew I wouldn't have to endure this slap in vain, "I want to make you feel distressed, so I did it on purpose." ”
Since I was recognized, then I went straight to his words, but Yan Beishen looked at me with an uncertain expression, "Then your goal has been achieved, what do you want me to help?" ”
I was so frightened by the sudden honesty that I had to touch the back of my neck to hide my embarrassment.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's General Liang's granddaughter Shen and I became friends, she originally came out to meet with us yesterday, but she was locked up at home by General Liang, I want to say that you have a lot of relationship with General Liang, and it will be much more convenient for you to take me there."
"Don't joke with your body in the future, I'll wait for you at the door." This means promise me, I knew that Long Shili would not do anything to Yan Beishen when he beat me today, I just thought about taking advantage of his pity for me and then finding an excuse to ask him for help, I didn't expect him to agree so happily.
After Yan Beishen left, I went to the bronze mirror on the side to observe my face, this dragon Shi Li has no other skills, the ability to slap people is on par with me, but after a beating, half of my face immediately became red and swollen, I took some rouge gouache and put makeup on my face again, hoping to cover up some of it.
Then I immediately went out of the room to the gate of the palace, and saw that Yan Beishen had changed into a new Luo shirt waiting for me outside at this time, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he was wearing the same light blue as me, and people who didn't know would probably think that this was a couple's outfit.
"Where's the carriage, let's walk to the General's Mansion?"
"The king hasn't had breakfast yet."
I had to follow him to the largest morning market street in Meaux, and then bought soy milk fritters and two cages of xiaolongbao at a stall nearby.
Anyway, I'm hungry, I don't care about the image of a lady, I take a bite of a bun, and then eat soy milk fritters, swallowing dates, on the contrary, Yan Beishen didn't move.
"Didn't you say you're hungry, why don't you eat it, could it be that you don't like this kind of civilian stuff is too ordinary, you can't open your mouth?"
"Sleep without food, eat yours."
His disgusted expression made me angry when I looked at it, and finally I ate his share of breakfast.
"Let's go." When he saw that I was full, he decided to get up and leave, and I stopped him, "You haven't paid yet?" ”
Yan Beishen smiled and said, "It's all in your Five Organs Temple, do you still have to pay for this money?" ”
Stingy ghost, drink cold water, Yan Beishen, you are obviously a rich prince, are you not willing to invite me to eat such a small breakfast, what a miser!
Luckily, I had a little money left on my side, otherwise I would have been embarrassed today.
After paying the stall owner, Yan Beishen took me to General Liang's.
I was unhappy all the way to the past, but because I still needed Yan Beishen's help, I dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and I only thought about how to solve Shen Yi's matter.
"What a snobbish girl, I helped you, but you're not happy, it's up to you." Yan Beishen probably couldn't stand my muttering, and finally gave me a gold leaf, this gold leaf is a good treasure, and if you exchange it for cash, you can buy a lot of food.
I stared at the gold leaf with glowing eyes, and my head was like a chicken pecking rice, "Thank you, Lord Wang, for the reward." ”
"When you arrive, remember to follow me and don't run around." This is the last sentence that Yan Beishen said to me before entering the general's mansion, I honestly agreed, but my heart was like a mirror, the purpose of my trip was to see Shen Yi, if I couldn't see her, I couldn't settle down.
It was General Liang who came out to greet him, and he was not surprised to see me, presumably because he had seen me at the banquet before.
"I don't know what is the important matter for Lord Qing to come today?"
"The general is serious, this king is under your tutelage, and it is not natural for this apprentice to come to see the master." Yan Beishen's face was not red and his heart was not beating when he told lies, as if it was true.
General Liang smiled, "Qingwang is polite, let's taste the tea first, this tea is specially sent by the people of the black fontanelle, although it is not a famous tea, it is better than fresh." ”
"Fontanelle?" Yan Beishen seemed to be a little puzzled by what General Liang said, "Isn't the black fontanelle a small city next to Fengcheng?" How can you measure that the general has old people in the middle of nowhere? ”
I always thought that what Yan Beishen had forgotten was just a past with me, and I didn't think that he had even forgotten everything about going to Black Fontanelle, but General Liang followed Yan Beiyan's words and said, "The nobles of Qingwang are so forgetful, they naturally don't remember a small place like Black Fontanelle." ”
If he continues to talk like this, I am afraid that I may not be able to see Shen Yi when it gets dark, I secretly pinched Yan Beiyan, he turned his head and glared at me, and then the general said the purpose of this trip.
"Why didn't Shen Yi come out to see this king, didn't he go out early this morning?"
General Liang took a sip of the warm tea in his hand, and then wiped the edge of the teacup with tea, "Shen Yi, this child has also reached the age of marriage, the first two years were to see her young, the old man was reluctant to delay the family affair with the Zhu Wang family, but now it seems that he can no longer shirk, but this child's heart is too high, and he does not agree, so I locked her in the room, Qingwang, you came here early this morning, I am afraid that in addition to worrying about the old horseman, it is better for Shen Yi to be a lobbyist." ”
This amount of general is really fast, Yan Beishen didn't say anything, he directly pierced the window paper.
Yan Beishen didn't hide it, and directly stated his purpose.
"Shen Yi is your only granddaughter, although Zhu Si is not as sloppy as the rumors outside, but the marriage leave is the most reluctant word."
This is also what I wanted to say to Yan Beishen, but I didn't want him to say it himself.
"Oops, my stomach hurts and I want to go to the hut." I also know a little bit about General Liang's temperament, I'm afraid that it is good to talk to Yan Beishen in this matter, and I can't help anything if I stay here all the time, so it's better to borrow urine and go around looking for Shen Yi.
"Butler, take this girl down and wait carefully."
General Liang probably also saw my intentions, but he was too lazy to dismantle me, but Yan Beishen looked like he hated iron but not steel, as if it was an extremely stupid idea for me to borrow urine.
After leaving the main hall, the housekeeper took me to the hut, and he pointed not far away, "Girl, that's the latrine." ”
I took a few steps in the direction of the latrine, and when I looked back, I saw that the butler was still standing in place with a serious look waiting for me, and it was so empty that it was impossible for me to escape.
"This uncle, I, I have a problem, if I knew who was waiting for me outside the latrine, I wouldn't be able to pull it out."
The housekeeper talked nonsense seriously, "This problem is not good, girl, don't embarrass me, the general has ordered me to serve you well, then I can only wait here for you to go to the toilet, don't embarrass the villain." ”
Ah Xi, are the current uncles so shrewd, how can I go to find Shen Yi!
I smiled awkwardly and walked to the latrine.
After entering, I covered my nose with my hands, everything was good in ancient times, but I was very dissatisfied with the lack of modern flush toilets, and it was summer, and the smell in it could be imagined.
Suddenly, I had a flash of inspiration and thought of a great idea, to say that I don't have great wisdom in the southern kite, but there is still a little bit of cleverness.
"Uncle, there's no toilet paper in it, you can call someone to bring it to me, by the way, you must call a woman to bring it in for me, you can't send me toilet paper!"
"It's really troublesome, wait."
Probably this housekeeper was also speechless by me, he is a dignified head of a house, and he has to take care of such a small thing as me, so he must have a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart.
The footsteps of the housekeeper gradually faded away, and I immediately walked out of the thatched house, and then walked around in the courtyard of the general's mansion, and I didn't know which side of the room Shen Yi lived in, so I casually found a direction and ran over, just hoping that I was lucky enough.
