Chapter 108: Haunting Dreams
When King Chengwu left the Wenhua Palace, his face was quite ugly, this Shen Hanxi actually hit Xu Yuan's head with his idea. But after thinking about it, this is a good opportunity for Xu Yuan to make a contribution.
If he returns from victory, fame and fortune are basically at his fingertips, Xu Yuan has this ability, why should he give him this opportunity?
When he first met Xu Yuan, he disliked his weak body in every way, and even wondered how he got into the army. Now he feels that with his ingenuity, he is very condescending to be a small adviser by his side.
However, thinking that the weak young man was about to leave his wings and spread his wings and fly high, there was something wrong in his heart.
When he returned to the palace in complicated emotions, he had just changed into a loose casual dress, and someone brought him a large number of gift lists.
The saint has been sick in bed for a while, and no one can say when he will drive the crane west. Once the saint dies, according to the rules, the people are not allowed to marry and funeral within 100 days, and the official eunuchs have to wait for a year. Therefore, his mother felt that this marriage should be given as soon as possible, so as not to have many dreams at night and no more variables.
The date of appointment was chosen on an auspicious day in the second half of this month. In the past two days, the palace has been preparing for the appointment letter and listing the gift list, and they are very busy. King Chengwu, the party concerned, was not at home all day, and seemed a little indifferent to this marriage.
Today, I finally caught him and returned to the palace, and the subordinates naturally refused to miss it.
He just looked through the gift list and put it down, saying that he had no opinion. The next person presented a red lacquer gift box, which contained a small red paper post with the intention of marrying, and the cover was printed with the four big characters of "Respectful Jinnuo".
This kind of post is called "dragon and phoenix post", and both men and women have passed on "dragon and phoenix post" to each other, which means that they have become married, and they must not regret their marriage at will in the future.
"Lord Wang, this dragon and phoenix post needs a poster, preferably something close to you, what do you think is appropriate?"
But I saw my own prince sitting there, with a tea cup in his hand, his brows furrowed for a while, and then loosened for a while, I don't know what he was thinking.
Stretched out his hand and waved in front of him: "Lord Wang? ”
King Chengwu replied: "What's the matter, say." ”
The subordinate had to ask again, and after asking, he saw that he casually took off the jade pendant on his waist, threw it into the lacquer box, and said, "Is there anything else?" ”
Seeing that his prince was full of impatience, the other party was also quite eye-catching, so he no longer bothered him with trivial things, and respectfully withdrew.
King Chengwu's heart has been thinking about Xu Yuan. After careful calculation, I haven't seen him for more than two months. That kid's temperament is as stubborn as a donkey, and he refuses to admit defeat, and his personality as a prince is also stinky and hard, and when they get together, there will be disputes and quarrels from time to time.
However, Xu Yuan can speak well, and often makes him angry, so he can only use the prince's obscenity to suppress him, thinking of the aggrieved appearance that he is not convinced but can only endure it, the corners of King Chengwu's lips can't help but hook up.
After a moment, he couldn't help but pause.
What do you giggle at when you think of that kid?
Early the next morning, Lingbei camp.
Captain Li was washing his horse, and suddenly felt that the light around him was dim, and when he looked back, he saw a tall and mighty figure stopped beside him.
"Captain Li, answer a question from this king."
Seeing his prince's troubled expression, Captain Li couldn't help but hand over the work of washing the horse to the young general next to him, and said, "You ask." ”
"What does it mean if you think of someone all the time, and when you think of them, you laugh unconsciously?"
Captain Li was taken aback by this question, and when he thought that his prince's wedding was approaching, he immediately showed a meaningful expression and said, "What else does this mean, it means that I have taken a fancy to this person." ”
I saw King Chengwu's expression stunned: "Have you taken a fancy to him?" ”
"The prince is talking about himself, is this person the future princess? After only seeing one time, it made the prince haunt his dreams, and this future princess must be as beautiful as a fairy......"
King Chengwu glanced at him and said lightly, "It's not Miss Li." ”
At this time, Captain Li paused, and then gradually changed his complexion, and hesitated: "Lord Wang, don't you have a crush on other girls?" ”
He said, "What if he wasn't a girl?" ”
Captain Li was a little frightened: "It's not a girl...... You...... You wouldn't be ......," he said, looking around and lowering his voice, "there's that kind of love, huh?" ”
Those of them who serve as soldiers and fight wars are in the barracks all the year round, and they don't see girls every year, and in this grim situation, it is inevitable that some people will go down the wrong path. After thinking about it, his own prince doesn't look like it, unless he hides it very well, and even hides himself.
Seeing that Captain Li's expression was unpredictable, King Chengwu narrowed his eyes and said, "What kind of hobby does that hobby refer to?" ”
Captain Li said that if this person is a girl, then he may have taken a fancy to the other party, but this person is a man, which means that this is not the reason. If this is not the reason, what could it be?
King Chengwu fell into a kind of metaphysical thinking, but he couldn't figure it out.
Captain Li was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Lord Wang, do you want to go to a place with a humble position?" ”
Changchun Temple.
After King Chengwu returned to Beijing, he often mingled with Xie Qiwei, and he also patronized the famous Goolan Washe in Beijing. This "Changchun Courtyard" is really the first time to come.
However, when he stepped into it, he immediately found that this place was not quite different from ordinary green buildings.
And a one-eyed little brother led them into a private room, and when he invited them to sit down, he asked them who they wanted to serve.
King Chengwu glanced at Captain Li for a long time, only to hear him cough, and said, "Call all of you who have a look here, and our master will pick one." ”
The one-eyed little brother knew at a glance that the origin of these two was not small, and immediately smiled and said: "The two masters wait a minute, the slave will call someone." ”
King Chengwu stared at Captain Li, and the other party immediately explained: "Don't look at me like this, it's the first time I've come." Don't you want to know if you have a hobby in that area, and you'll find out for yourself in a moment. ”
Soon, the one-eyed little brother brought in seven or eight little men, the younger one was thirteen or fourteen years old, and the eldest was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Before the person could get closer, King Chengwu was choked by the fat powder that rushed to his face.
A bold man immediately stepped forward with a handkerchief and wanted to sit on his lap: "Master, what's the matter, the slave will wipe it for you." ”
Listening to this voice, it is even more delicate than a woman.
King Chengwu had goosebumps on his body, and immediately stretched out a hand to stop him: "Don't come here." ”
The boy immediately said yes, and stood up in an orderly manner, but did not forget to throw a wink at him.
The charm in the divine ceremony made the corners of King Chengwu's eyes twitch.
Seeing this, the one-eyed little brother gestured with his eyes, and the other little men immediately surrounded him, some pinched their shoulders, some beat their legs, and some poured wine in front of him and winked at him: "It's the first time to come here." ”
If your body is stiff like this, you must not be a regular customer, and maybe, you haven't tasted the wonders of your grandfather.
King Chengwu raised his hand to block the wine glass, but the little man's body leaned forward again, almost leaning on him: "Once raw and twice ripe, after today, the slave promises that you will come often in the future." ”
Without waiting for King Chengwu to speak, another hand took the grape and handed it to his lips: "Lord doesn't open his mouth, do you want the slave to feed you in other ways?" So saying, he took the grape into his mouth, and put it to his mouth.
The other little ones were also babbling about flattering words, and their voices were all sharp and thin, which made him feel uncomfortable listening to them. He finally couldn't help but say, "Stand down for me!" ”
His voice was intimidating, and the teenagers retreated one after another, standing in front of him and looking at him aggrievedly.
King Chengwu pinched his eyebrows, and impatiently said to Captain Li, who had been watching the excitement behind him: "Give them all the silver you brought." ”
After Captain Li rewarded each teenager, he chased him out of the private room.
King Seungmu fell into deep thought, he had no interest in those boys, and when they were close to him, he would even have an instinctive rejection. And when he went to the kiln with Xie Qi before, he didn't have such rejection of women, which proved that what he liked was still women.
In this case, what is his feeling for Xu Yuan?
At this time, Xu Yuan, who was far away on the border, sneezed loudly. She rubbed her red nose and unfolded the urgent letter.
After reading the contents of the letter, she squeezed the letter tightly, her eyes gathered, and said to the soldiers beside her: "Prepare a horse and go to Tongzhou." ”
The Tatars burned and looted all the way, and the cities they passed through were all looted, and the panic of foreign invasion was everywhere in the north, but the capital was still in a peaceful atmosphere. No matter how powerful this Tatar is, can it still hit the feet of this Son of Heaven? The people of the capital are still living their lives in a good way, and they are not affected in the slightest, but in the tea shops and restaurants in the streets and alleys, there are occasionally some voices talking about this matter.
The second son of the Mo family from Yaozhou paced back and forth in the post station near Beijing.
Yesterday, when they were about to enter the city, the official who guarded the city said that there was something wrong with their papers, and that they could only be released after they had been inspected by the above.
If it weren't for the fact that before he came, he swore to the sky in front of the Marquis of Dingyuan that he would never reveal his identity as the second son of the Mo family, where would he be so angry. Now, the garrison can't be used, so he can only be trapped here in grievances, and the more he thinks about it, the more angry he becomes.
The young man named Shang Xiang followed him back and forth, persuading him: "Son, don't be impatient, I have sent someone to inquire, who deliberately blocked it, and there will be news soon." ”
The young man stopped in front of him and said hatefully: "Don't plant this person in my hands in the future, I will let him walk around without eating!" I don't know what I thought, my eyes suddenly deepened, and I said, "The city guard can't be used, isn't there someone else who can help." Quick, go get the letter eagle. ”
Shaoyuan stuffed the written note into the bamboo tube tied to the eagle's feet, threw it into the air, and then raised his hand to set up a curtain in front of his eyes, and watched it condense into a point in the air and disappear completely.
He didn't know that as soon as this letter eagle flew into the Chongwen Gate, it was beaten down.
A pair of slender hands lazily untied the bamboo tube, pulled out the paper inside, and after reading it, laughed coldly, and crushed the piece of paper in his hand.
The object of the second son of the Mo family asking for help is Xiao Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department.
