Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
The tall girl took him straight up to the tall Suzaku Tower outside the city, which was a watchtower, from which you could see the lights of thousands of homes in the distance and the hundred miles of jungle in the distance. She pointed to the distance and laughed: "I came from over there, all the way over, and I walked a long way. ”
"I'm from Qinling." Facing the frank girl, he couldn't help but want to confide: "Something happened at home, and I was kicked out, and I have nowhere to go." ”
"Then why did you come to the capital?" She smiled and pursed her lips: "This is not a good place. ”
"Defect to your loved ones." He whispered: "My father said that my mother is in the capital, let me come to him by myself." ”
"Why didn't your dad come?" She blinked her curious eyes: "Since you know that your mother is in the capital, you should come over together for a reunion." ”
He smiled wryly: "My father wants to, but my mother's family doesn't allow it." ”
"Uh, elopement?" The girl said without hesitation, without any disdain.
He shook his head: "It's not elopement. At that time, my mother was in trouble and was saved by my father, and the two became relatives after a long time. Dad originally thought that his mother was homeless, but he didn't expect that one day, his mother's relatives would come to the door and pick her up. Dad knew that his mother was hiding a lot of things. At that time, I had just been born. ”
The girl patted him: "Your mother must love your father very much, so she refused to tell the truth and had you with your father." ”
He didn't speak.
The matter of his father and mother is not clear, and he doesn't want to mention it.
"Then why are you crying, you can't find your mother?" The girl asked.
"Actually, I found it." The smile on his face was very bitter: "But my mother is not what I thought." She...... It's too far away from us, no wonder my father is reluctant to come to the capital to look for her with me, and told me not to return to Qinling after finding my mother. I really don't know what to do now, I can't reunite with my mother, and I can't bear to disappoint my father, and the money I brought is robbed ......"
This can't be twined!
The girl patted him on the shoulder and comforted him like an elder: "Then you can break out of the sky by yourself." As for the silver, I don't have it. I have gold, though. ”
As she spoke, she took out a shiny gold bar from her bosom and stuffed it into his hand: "This gold is quite heavy, it can be exchanged for a few hundred taels of silver, you can take it first and respond to emergencies." She touched her tied hair, and the expression on her face was very annoyed: "I knew that I would meet you, so I didn't want the gold given by His Majesty, and I asked for a silver ticket directly, which can save a lot of trouble." ”
She laughed: "If you're afraid of betraying my kindness, just take me a stake." By the way, what do you do? ”
He couldn't laugh or cry.
How could there be such a person, who didn't know where others came from, and dared to give the gold bars casually.
However, her words gave him a way, and doing business was a good choice for him at the moment. He took the gold: "All right, you will be a shareholder." Don't worry, I will definitely earn you back a thousand times over. ”
"That's right!" She pointed earnestly into the distance: "We have to look forward and earn backwards!" ”
"You're short of money?" If you don't have money, you will give him gold!
She shook her head: "There is no shortage." I'm missing someone. ”
"Who?" He asked.
She smiled: "I don't know, my father said this, as for who this person is, who knows." Hey, speaking of which, I'm kind of craving to drink too, so let's go down and have a few more drinks, shall we? ”
He went down to the Suzaku Tower with her, and met a group of soldiers who were on patrol at night, and he was about to stand to avoid it, but she walked down without looking back. When those soldiers saw her, not only did they not dare to scold, but they all stopped one after another and saluted respectfully: "General Pei! ”
She nodded, looked back and didn't see him, smiled and beckoned, "Come here." ”
He gasped.
Up and down the Eastern Continent, there is only one woman surnamed Pei and a general, and that is the young lady in the palace of Tai'an, Pei Xie Tang, the baby daughter of the prince of Tai'an! That's a genius girl, who went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen to fight, was the champion of high school martial arts at the age of sixteen, and was already a great military achievement at the age of seventeen, and he was a person of two worlds.
Following her footsteps, he was stupid: "You are Pei Xie Tang?" ”
"yes, not like that?" She was happy: "I'm so famous, even you know it." ”
He nodded sneeringly, looking at the smiling girl, feeling very trance.
He originally thought that a person like Pei Xie Tang who could make meritorious contributions on the battlefield must be born five big and three thick to be able to bear heavy weapons. But the girl in front of her is very tall, well-proportioned, and even looks a little thin, and her hands are not wide, and there is nothing special about her. With her appearance, it's good to be able to carry the handsome flag! Even this face, like the one in the painting, is not ugly.
How can this kind of person who lives in a legend have an intersection with him?
She reached out and grabbed his head, he was only seventeen years old, he had not yet opened his height, he was just as tall and short as Pei Xie Tang, and he was holding his head by her, like a child.
She smiled and said, "I'll tell you, don't be intimidated by the legends made up by others. I'm just lucky to have a really powerful dad. Let's go, don't be cowardly, I'll invite you to drink, aren't you very capable? ”
So, in the tavern, they drank all the wine they had stored, and finally found an inn to sleep in on their shoulders.
The next day, we came together and slept with our heads in my hands.
I don't know, I thought it was a small couple of people.
He was frightened.
Pei Xie Tang was woken up by him, and as soon as he opened his eyes, his face was obviously flustered, but it was not for sleeping: "Oh no, it's all like this, my father must have found out that I didn't go to the martial arts training ground." Go first, go first, or I'll die a miserable death. She rushed to the door, turned around and said, "By the way, I remember everything you said last night, you have a backer in the capital, and whoever bullies you in the future will report my name Pei Xie Tang, and I promise to beat him to the ground and can't get up." ”
She slipped away.
Then he didn't appear again for many days, and later he learned that because he drank with him all night and didn't return, she missed the martial arts time, and she was beaten ten military sticks by her father on the martial arts training ground, and she lay on the bed for more than ten days before she got better.
When we met again, he opened his first shop, which was selling calligraphy and paintings, and he raised his eyes from the busyness and saw a familiar figure standing in front of a pair of calligraphy and paintings, and he was very distressed and dazed. At a glance, he recognized it and stepped forward to say hello, and since then, Gao Xingzhi has become Pei Xietang's fox friend and dog friend......
In the end, the trouble he caused was nothing more than ten military sticks.
As for her, after knowing her, he has no shelter. This man has a bad reputation, and he is also pointed at. Fortunately, he has a strong heart, so he has lived tenaciously for so many years.
Pei Xie Tang was shrouded by Gao Xingzhi's gaze, and he couldn't help but feel a little weak, especially when he died this time, thinking of seeing Gao Xingzhi's appearance when he came back to life, Pei Xie Tang felt that this person was still very kind.
She waved her hand: "Then it's decided, when I'm busy for a while, we'll go to Zhende Upstairs to drink and eat roasted turtledoves!" ”
"I'll wait for you." He looked at him and smiled, and he was in a good mood.
After Gao Xing left, Pei Xie Tang's heart was much less gloomy.
Knowing that Pei Yixiang was settled, her heart settled down and eased up, so she called the basket and Qi Meng: "The prince should come back tomorrow, we should settle the score." ”
Qi Meng smiled: "It's all ready." ”
Everything went according to plan.
However, Zhu Xinzhi did not come to Xie's house the next day. He came back, but for some reason he became very busy, and he didn't have time to see Pei Xie Tang at all. However, he still remembered Pei Xie Tang's words, no one came, so he let the lonely bird come and sent a large bag of white mountain lilies.
The basket was very happy, and it was placed in a large vase in the house, and the room was full of incense.
Pei Xie Tang looked at those flowers, and his heart was mixed for a while.
She found that the current Zhu Xinzhi seemed to really care about her, not her illusion, but really put her in her heart. This is a good thing, and it means that her plans can begin. But for some reason, there was a faint uneasiness in my heart.
Shaking off these complicated emotions, Pei Xie Tang smiled openly, whatever he does, as long as he cares, she has a way.
Right now, I cleaned up Steward Xu and Fan's first.
That night, not long after the basket brought the medicine to Pei Xie Tang, he ran to Xie Yijiang crying: "Master, it's not good, Miss vomited blood!" ”
"What?" Xie Yijiang was taken aback, and hurried to Manjiang Court.
When I arrived in the room, Pei Xie Tang was lying on the side of the bed and vomiting to death, and a trace of red and bright blood at the corner of his mouth was particularly dazzling. Xie Yijiang suddenly panicked: "Chengyin, what's wrong with you?" ”
I've been recuperating from my injuries these days, aren't they all good?
Qi Meng was blessed: "Master, Miss suddenly vomited blood after taking medicine, I have seen the medicine bowl, it should be poisoned." ”
"Poisoned? How can you be poisoned in the mansion? Xie Yijiang's face was slightly pale, and his body shook slightly: "What kind of poison is it, is there any salvation?" ”
"Miss's poisoning is still shallow, I used medicine to induce vomiting." Qi Meng's brows furrowed tightly: "But the basket said that I have been drinking this medicine for the past few days, and I have seen the medicinal juice in the medicine jar, and it is all poisonous." But there is no medicine bag, and it seems that someone has put the poison into the medicine jar. ”
"Where's the stuff?" Xie Yijiang was furious.
Pei Xie Tang propped up his body and said weakly: "Dad, someone wants his daughter to die, and my daughter is afraid that she will not be able to support her father in the old age." ”
"No, Cheng Yin, don't say anything discouraged." Xie Yijiang was half frightened to death by her words, and hurriedly comforted her: "Qi Meng is in your yard, she will take care of you." No matter who wants to kill you, Dad will definitely find her, you hold on, don't be busy with your mother, you should accompany Dad more, so that Dad has time to compensate you. ”
Pei Xie Tang sighed: "Dad, I miss my mother......"
As he spoke, he slowly closed his eyes and tilted his head on his arm.
