Chapter 31: It's all secrets
"Tokai?" Lin Yun'er really doesn't know much about the terrain of this Darui, and has vaguely heard that there are Xiling Kingdom, Xishu Kingdom, and Beidi Kingdom in the north of Zhongshan.
Dong Mao said with a smile, "In ancient times, the Zhou State unified the world for eight hundred years, and then many princes and states appeared, and the Zhou State was forced to be divided, with a total of more than 300 countries. Da Rui used to be a small princely country, after four generations of ancestors, nearly 400 years to have today, Da Rui is so prosperous. Ten years ago, the Western Shu Kingdom was destroyed by the King of Pingxi, and although the Beidi Kingdom was strong, the King of Zhongshan also occupied a large area of their land, making them bow down. It's just that there is a Xiling country in the west of Xishu Kingdom, and there is a Hu Xuan country in the north of Xiling Kingdom, although it is already a vast sea in the east, there is an island country on the opposite side of the ocean sea, called Yingguo, and Yingguo is Liguo to the north. Each of these countries occupies dangerous terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is why it has been so rampant in recent years. ”
Seeing that Dong Mao said so with relish, and his face was bright, Lin Yun'er couldn't help blurting out and asking, "What about the south?" ”
"South?" Dong Mao glanced at Lin Yun'er in surprise, "There was a country in the south, which occupied a large area of sea and docks, and a hundred years ago, Emperor Taizu had already taken it down, and now the south has long been obedient to my Da Rui." ”
"With so many small countries, if they join forces, they are also a formidable rival." Lin Yun'er sighed.
"Haha. Isn't it! Dong Mao said, "When I attacked the country of Bosa, I heard that the country of Bosa and the country of Ying were very close at that time, and the country of Ying wanted to take advantage of the situation to join forces with it to take down the three continents east of my Da Rui, but I didn't want to be provoked by one person, so that Da Rui could be divided and dissolved, and he was really a god and a man!" ”
"Who's that man?"
"This person's whereabouts are uncertain, it is said that he fell from the sky, and after conquering the country of Posa, he took the crane and left, and there was no news." Shen Yu said, "At that time, the veteran who was able to see this person's true face in the army once mentioned that the person was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman. ”
"Woman?" Lin Wan'er was a little surprised that there was such a different woman. She seemed to be able to feel her own speeding heartbeat.
"Yes." Shen Yu also seemed to see Lin Yun'er's expression at this time, frowned slightly, and said, "However, it is rumored that the woman is from the Phoenix Kingdom on the edge of the sky. ”
"Is it a split of the ancient Zhou Kingdom?" Lin Wan'er asked.
Shen Yu nodded and shook his head, "In ancient times, the Zhou Kingdom flourished the art of divination, so there were special wizards for the Chinese people to divinate luck and life and death, and the leader of the wizards was the national teacher, the wizards were extremely difficult to reproduce, and their life span was extremely long, their totem was a phoenix, so the place where they lived was called the Phoenix Kingdom, and they never stepped out of the Phoenix Country without authorization." It's just that it seems that fifty years after Da Rui became independent and no longer called a vassal, the Phoenix Kingdom has been destroyed. ”
"This ......"
"What are you talking about? So lively? Lin Yun'er wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by a hoarse voice, only to see that he had changed into a light blue round-necked robe at this time, coiled up his silver hair, and held it with the most ordinary plain hosta. He walked over with a smile on his face. "Even if the mountain breeze is cool, you shouldn't stay in the pavilion for long. I've told Mother Cui to put a basin of ice cubes in your room, so go and cool off. ”
Obviously, Mu Ling's words were said by Lin Yun'er.
Lin Yun'er glanced at Shen Yu and Dong Mao a little helplessly, who let Mu Ling be Huang Zishan's brother, so she could only bite her lower lip, salute you and retreat to the room.
Jade was already waiting at Lin Yun'er's door, and when she saw Lin Yun'er coming, she hurriedly greeted her and said, "Lady, you are back, and the ice cubes prepared for the lady are about to melt." Jade hurriedly helped her to the back room and said, "Lady, change your clothes quickly." ”
Lin Yun'er touched her clothes, and then she understood why Mu Ling wanted her to come back, the weather was too hot, and she listened so engrossed that her back had already been soaked with sweat, if she didn't come back in time to change, wouldn't it be a shame and a big loss? At this point, it seems that she should start to look at this righteous brother named Mu Ling again.
Changing into new clothes, which Jade brought yesterday, Lin Yun'er sat down by the ice basin and asked, "Why have I never heard you mention this brother-in-law?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jade's face suddenly changed, and she seemed a little nervous, "What are you calling her?" ”
"Brother-in-law?" Lin Yun'er didn't know why.
Jade scolded in a low voice, "This crape myrtle is too ignorant!" ”
The expression on Jade's face at this time was ever-changing, as if she had overturned the color palette, and it was the first time that Lin Yun'er had seen the always steady Jade so out of shape, even for such a moment, her mood was very comfortable, "Ziwei only told me that it was Mu Langjun who came." ”
Jade said slowly, "Mu Langjun is called by people outside the Huang Mansion, and the people of the Huang Mansion who know and have a good relationship with her will also call Mu Lang Jun, and in addition, the Huang Mansion calls her to be Ling Niangzi." If it weren't for those troubled things, she should be the eldest lady of the Yellow Mansion. ”
The man who looks so beautiful is actually a woman? Huang Zishan, Huang Zishan, do you still have those things that you should know but didn't know, just smash them all.
Lin Yun'er frowned tightly, and Jade Dao was puzzled why Huang Ziling was now Muling, so she said, "Just because our third lady and the third lady got married late, and the head of the family Ah Lang wanted to hold his granddaughter in a hurry, the third lady was also angry, and was diagnosed as pregnant with Lin'er in March, but I don't know what the third lady was angry with during pregnancy, and the child had a miscarriage. San Lang was afraid that his wife would be too sad, and Ah Lang liked his granddaughter, so he rescued Ling Niangzi outside. ”
Jade paused, "The Huang family finally added a daughter, the Huang Mansion almost spoiled her to the sky, Ling Niangzi loved medical skills at a young age, and secretly followed Erlang out to practice medicine a few times, Erlang also loved her, so he poured out what he had learned all his life to teach, but he didn't expect something to happen to this learning." Within a few years, the lady was born, and when the family celebrated, Ling Niangzi proposed to the head Ah Lang to walk the rivers and lakes, at that time, Ling Niangzi was only six years old. In a fit of rage, Ah Lang locked her in the firewood room. Unexpectedly, something happened at this level. ”
"Ling Niangzi was locked up in the firewood room without eating or drinking for seven days, and Ah Lang, who was in charge, finally couldn't bear to let her out, who wanted to release it and became what she is now, the original black green silk turned into white hair, and her voice became hoarse, and later everyone knew that it was Ling Niangzi who drugged herself." Jade touched a tear in the corner of her eye, "Ling Niangzi has been helpless since she was a child, and the slave knows that she doesn't want to stay in this family and be left out in the cold, that child is very transparent in everything, and she has been urinating like this since she was a child." Later, she changed her name every few years as she wished, and did not return home until a few years ago and got a job in Dali Temple. ”
As he was talking, the door of the room was dark, "What bad things is Mother Cui saying about me behind my back again?" The hoarse voice was accompanied by laziness. Lin Yun'er turned her head, but saw him holding his hands on his chest and looking at him meaningfully.
"You raunchy, I'm a lot old, what bad things can you say?" Jade wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and beckoned to her, "Don't stand at the door, come and cool off." ”
"Okay!" Mu Ling strode over to the ice basin and sat down, with two rows of snow-white teeth showing in his smile, which at first glance was indeed extremely cute.
"The slave and maid retired first." Jade owes herself and exits the door.
When Jade went out, Mu Ling began to look at the sister in front of her, she supported her right hand with her left hand, pinched her chin with interest with the thumb of her right index finger, and suddenly nodded, suddenly shook her head, "It's like, but it's not like." ”
When Lin Yun'er heard this, she couldn't help but be shocked in her heart, could it be that the other party knew that Huang Zishan was no longer Huang Zishan?
"You're her." It's not an interrogative sentence, it's an affirmative sentence, "Not bad." Better than her. ”
Lin Yun'er's body couldn't help but fall back, pretending to be puzzled, "Why did Sister Yi say this?" ”
"Every time she saw me, she would pester me and ask me interesting stories about the rivers and lakes." Mu Ling said, "She has never called my brother-in-law, let alone my sister-in-law." Just call me Ah Ling. ”
It turned out that she was recognized as Huang Ziyun, Lin Yun'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this is her own exposed feet, just calculate the time, when Huang Zishan and Huang Ziyun were born, the guy in front of him was only a six-year-old child, and some things may not be understood, could it be that the precocious wisdom of the ancients has reached such a terrible point?
"And." Mu Ling smiled and said, "You're smarter than her." But he was more confused than her. ”
Lin Yun'er didn't speak, she just wanted to wait for her to continue, she continued, "That Shen Yu is a very ambitious person, so it's better to have less contact in the future." She glanced at Lin Yun'er and added, "Don't ask me why." ”
"Hmm." Since she was not allowed to ask the reason, she could only say this one word.
Everything seemed to be much quieter again, Lin Yun'er thought of Ouyang Lan lying on the collapse, and said, "What kind of Gu is in Ouyang County Lord?" ”
Mu Ling laughed out loud, making Lin Yun'er feel that her hoarse voice was inexplicably good, "I knew you couldn't help but ask." ”
After laughing, she said with a straight face, "This Gu poison has a nice name, called Inch Step and Inch Heart. At first, this Gu poison was planted somewhere in the body of the bitter master, and it was very normal at the beginning of the Gu planting, but every time the bitter lord took this Gu, it would infiltrate an inch, and finally it could swim in the body, absorbing all the nutrients on the bitter master's body, making the bitter lord languishing, resulting in a high fever that did not retreat from the whole body but was cold, but this situation did not last long, this kind of Gu was a kind of thing that only went in and could not be eaten, and when it ate until it could no longer eat, it would burst into death in the bitter body, and the bitter master was exhausted and exhausted. In severe cases, it takes three or four years of recuperation to recover. ”
"Is it possible to calculate when the county lord fell for the Gu?"
Mu Ling gave her an approving look and said, "At present, I don't know, the speed of infiltration from the soles of my feet is different from that of the palms of my hands, so I can't judge." ”
Lin Yun'er said again, "When the county lord Ouyang went to Beijing, he was tied up in the hot spring villa for several days, and soon after the county lord was rescued, the perpetrator was finally killed by Gu poison. And now that the county lord has also been hit by the Gu, is there something strange about this Gu? ”
"Gu is something unique to the Western Shu Kingdom, it is passed on inside and not outside, only the people of the Western Shu Kingdom can learn it." Mu Ling said, "I suddenly feel that I like you more and more as a sister." ”
