Chapter 41: Never cry tired
The Nine Kings and Ma Shen walked strode to Yangwei Pavilion, and the Nine Kings took the lead in pushing open the door and entering. The lights were lit and the room was lit up in an instant.
"Lord Wang," Sanjie also came over outside the door. I brought some food and drinks. At this time, everyone is asleep, so it is very quiet.
"General Ma, Sanjie, you also sit and have a few drinks with this king." After the words of the Nine Kings, he went to the inner room to change his clothes. Sanjie and Ma Shen will arrange the wine and food here, "Sanjie, what is the matter with the Nine Kings this trip?" I think the Nine Kings are a little unhappy!" General Ma Shen looked at the prince and entered the inner room before he dared to ask Sanjie.
"You see that? Actually, I don't know why? That's already it on the way back! I didn't dare to speak all the way, for fear of annoying the prince. Sanjie put a plate of fried peanuts on the table with both hands. glanced at the inner room: "It seems to have something to do with the second miss of the Lin family!" “
"Second Miss of the Lin family? Let's talk about it, I only know that the prince went to Yangzhou, how did he get involved with the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion? How did she make our prince unhappy? Oh, don't be busy, talk about it! I'm so anxious! Ma Shen snatched a handful of fried pork slices with green peppers from Sanjie's hand and put them on the table.
"Oops, what are you in a hurry! I said it all, I don't know, I~" Sanjie looked at Ma Shen's anxious temperament and wanted to speak to appease. But when he looked up, he saw the nine kings coming out of the inner room. Immediately jumped up and poked Ma Shen next to him with his elbow, "Jiuwang, I will bring in a few dishes in the kitchen, you and Ma Shen will use them first." Sanjie hurriedly gave General Ma a look, got up and left.
"Well, well, Sanjie go and serve it, I will wait for you and the prince to drink together." Ma Shen diverted the topic in his heart.
The Nine Kings entered the inner room and changed into dark cyan robes and came out, and the four-clawed python embroidered with gold thread was vividly attached to the clothes. He wore a four-clawed python belt of the same dark cyan color around his waist. On both sides, there are sachets and jade pendants, which are luxurious.
"Lord, hot water is here, you wash your face first. When you're done eating, I'll let someone bring in hot water to bathe. As soon as Sanjie went out on the front foot, the old butler came. brought a basin of hot water and waited for the nine kings to wash.
"Okay, butler, you just put it here, this king has eaten and bathed again. You go and rest, and the rest is enough for the three masters. The Nine Kings felt that the butler was tired, and urged him to rest.
"Lord Wang, the old slave is not tired, Sanjie has been running with you for a day. It's also the same tiredness. You wash your face, if you have something to do, just call me, the old slave goes down! The butler took the hot water and placed it on the shelf, and then stepped back.
Jiuwang took the towel from the shelf and put it in the copper basin, "What did you just say to Sanjie?" So excited, I heard it in the inner room! He asked General Ma unintentionally. However, don't look at Ma Shen as a martial artist, after all, the people who roll on the battlefield are still a bit rigorous. Who are you bluffing? Did you hear it and asked?
"It's just that it's not much fun to talk about what you've seen and heard along the way." Ma Shen fooled a few words.
After a little washing, the nine kings sat down at the table to prepare for dinner, "General Ma, what is going on in the court now?" “
General Ma Shen diligently poured a cup for the Nine Kings, and he also poured a cup himself, "What my subordinates have heard is that Prince Yi and Princess Hongyuan entered Beijing, and Wang Guogong inherited a daughter from his own side. I think it should be an opportunity for the draft to be coming soon, and the power of the prime minister's family will grow. So I thought I had another daughter, whether it was recruited or married, there was another force, and his grandmother was an old fox. After Ma Shen finished speaking, he raised his wine glass to the nine kings, and the two of them drank it all.
"This old thing, his daughter has already entered the palace as a concubine, and she is still so dissatisfied. The step-daughter is bound to ask for a jade butterfly for her, and most of the time she came to me for this matter, and the royal brother will not agree to this matter. This case cannot be opened, and if it is opened, it will mess up the ancestral family law. The Nine Kings were quite disdainful in their words. General Ma Shen approvingly picked up the flask and poured another glass for the prince.
"Lord, the kitchen has made a few more dishes, and I brought another pot of wine!" Sanjie entered the hall with wine and food. General Ma Shen hurriedly beckoned Sanjie to sit down.
The three of them sat down to eat some food and drink, and talked about some important things. And they dispersed, and went home and bathed. Nothing else to do when they slept peacefully.
Lin Qingyun and his entourage rested for an hour since noon, and they didn't stop on the road. Wen Ye was afraid of motion sickness on the road, so he didn't eat, but just used some tea. The result is to get off the car from time to time. I'm embarrassed to say Gong directly, I said that I want to take a break when I'm tired. Fortunately, the carriage is thick enough, and I can endure the bumps and endure it. The horses could not stand it until nightfall, so they all changed again.
"Big brother, how long do we have to arrive! Why don't you take a break? Let's stay overnight! Wen also looked at the eldest brother pitifully, he was so tired, and he had been on the road for 8 hours since noon. The car was bumpy and I couldn't sleep.
Lin Qingyun looked at her weak sister, and was indeed a little shaken! Not to mention that the people are sleepy and tired now, and the dew is heavy at night, they men can stand it. But my sister is weak, so it is inevitable that she will not get sick. Thinking of this, he decisively ordered someone to dismount and stay. The inn here is remote, although it is simple, it is still possible to stay and rest in the wind and rain.
"Yating, come down! We'll stay here tonight, and we'll leave tomorrow morning as soon as it's dawn. Lin Qingyun turned over and got off the horse-drawn carriage to pick up Wen Ye.
Wen Ye was naturally happy when she heard this, and now there was nothing happier for her than to make her sleep immediately! "Okay, rest for the night tonight, recuperate, tomorrow even if I rush for a day, I will never shout tired!" Wen also approved the cloak, took the package, and got off the carriage along the stool.
"Guest officer, do you stay in the hotel? There are also two upper rooms and three lower rooms in our store, I don't know if I can live? The shopkeeper was a thin middle-aged man with a pale face and withered hands. In the dim light, he looks a little yellow and thin.
"Enough, we want it all, you take care of our horses. Prepare two tables of delicious meals for us, one in the lobby and one in the upper room. Boil some hot water to bring to the room. Lin Qingyun took out ten taels of silver and threw it on the counter, and then followed Xiao Er with his sister to the upper room.
"Hey, okay, you have everything you want, we'll send one upstairs later." The shopkeeper smiled and held the silver and responded enthusiastically to the owner.
"Sister, you wait for yourself to eat some food in the room, I will eat with them below, and I have something to tell them, you will sleep after you have eaten, and recuperate your spirits." Lin Qingyun checked the room between the two of them, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he told his sister.
"Okay, big brother, one dish per person is enough, and you can eat the rest with them." Wen also threw himself on the bed a little tired, and fell asleep when he saw that the eldest brother had closed the door.
Xiao Er brought hot water at this time and knocked on Wen Ye's door. Wen also cheered up, washed his face, and drank tea. Let Xiao Er leave a plate of green vegetables down, and send the rest downstairs for the eldest brother to eat.
