Chapter 90: Heaven and Earth
Baili Jiu looked frustrated: "It's really a woman with no conscience, a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed." ”
Lin Nuoya instantly began to go berserk, poking at his heart and complaining: "Am I a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed? Bailijiu, from yesterday to now, how many times has my mother fed you, how many times? The iron pestle is almost grinding into an embroidery needle! Are you full, huh? Lady, I ask you if you're full! ”
Baili Jiuyi grabbed Noya's hand and smiled wryly: "Madame is angry, Madame is angry." If the liver fire is stagnant, then the qi is not smooth, and if the qi is not smooth, the blood is not smooth, and the qi and blood are not good, and your brain will become stupid. From this day onwards, I will practice my cooking skills diligently until you are satisfied, and I will feed you to your heart's content. ”
Originally, it was a very serious sentence, but when it came out of the mouth of an unserious person, Noah felt that it was very imaginative.
Baili Jiu took out the tender garlic clove from under the gills of the fish and fed it to Noah: "Madame, please appreciate your face, forgive the little unintentional mistake." ”
Noah stretched out her mouth without a spineache and ate it.
"Husband's tofu is also the most tender, eat more."
Noah took the initiative to ignore his bad intentions.
Eating people has a short mouth, no matter how good it is, it is good to praise two sentences, but I really don't want to tell lies with a clear conscience, so I can only nod and say: "The fish and shrimp here are still quite delicious." ”
Bailijiu was praised and said excitedly: "There are fish and shrimp in the pond in front of the yard, and the beginning of spring is the time of fat. ”
Noya was immersed in eating, and said, "Ah Ding is the best at fishing with branches." ”
"Who is Ah Ding?" Bailijiu sensitively heard the name of a man who looked like him.
Noya herself didn't realize what she had just said, she just blurted it out unconsciously, came back to her senses, thought about it, shook her head and said, "I don't know." I don't know how to say it. ”
Baili Jiu was about to say something, and there was the sound of a bird flapping its wings outside the window.
He lifted the brocade quilt that had slipped to Noya's waist and wrapped her tightly, before he turned to open the window, and a black and shiny starling flew in and landed on the table in the room, staring at the rice in Noya's hand with a pair of dark round eyes.
Bailijiu closed the window, walked over, and did not avoid Nuoya, grabbed the starling, untied a roll of cloth from its feet, and unfolded it to look at it twice.
Nuoya suddenly realized: "It turns out that you raised so many starlings, and they were actually used to deliver news, so I said, how could you send an ugly bird like Jinniang." ”
"Not exactly." Baili Jiu picked out some rice with chopsticks and threw it on the windowsill, and the starling immediately flew over to peck at it.
"Originally, carrier pigeons were used to transmit messages in the army, just like the kind raised by the Marquis of Zhenyuan, but when the two armies faced each other, the enemy would have someone to shoot carrier pigeons, and the information would fall into the hands of the other party, causing serious consequences. And there will inevitably be many other surprises. These starlings have been specially adjusted and taught since childhood, and they will learn their tongues very quickly. If you have very confidential information, teach it as concisely as possible, and then pass it on to a lot of secrets. Even if the bird is shot or has other accidents, it will not leave the information in the hands of others, and there is no worry. ”
Noya remembered that day in the Drunken Dream Building, Jin Niang used the starling to pass the word and let the bustard put herself upstairs, and couldn't help asking: "It's a pity that the starling is just learning the tongue, and it doesn't distinguish between the enemy and me, what if the mouth leaks and shouts to everyone?" ”
Baili Jiu smiled slightly: "If you want them to speak, you must have a code word, just like their respective names, and they will only speak if they are right." Moreover, everyone's code words are different, so that even if someone mutinies, it will not be leaked. ”
Baili Jiu beckoned to the starling, and the little thing immediately flew over, landed on his finger, and handed it directly to Lin Nuoya: "This is just me and you, the code word is 'I like you', you try." ”
Noah slowly reached out and the little thing was not afraid at all, jumping into her palm, staring at a grain of rice at the corner of her mouth.
"I like you." Noah spoke softly.
Starling turned his head, his mouth was really closed, and his voice was hoarse and weird: "I like you too, stupid!" ”
It's purely the tone of Baili Jiu! Fooled!
Bailijiu on the side finally got his wish fulfilled, and breathed a long sigh of relief: "It's more difficult to let you open your mouth than to tune and teach a starling, remember to talk and count." ”
Noya glanced at him disdainfully: "I tell you that Baili Jiu, there is a lot of help for the righteous, and there is little help for the unjust, for such a cruel and inhumane act like you, even if you get my person, you can't get my heart, no way!" ”
He lowered his face: "Is it so difficult for you to say a good and obedient word?" ”
Noya turned her head and ignored him, just teasing the starling in her hand: "Knowing that my temper is stinky and hard, don't humiliate yourself next time." ”
Baili Jiu angrily stretched out his hand to drive away the starling, and stuffed the rice bowl into Noya's hand: "Since you have the strength to quarrel with me, there will be no problem with eating by yourself." ”
"But my hands are dirty, and I still want you to peel the shrimp for me."
Bailijiu resigned himself to going out to wash his hands.
Noah rolled over, walked to the table, picked up the strip of cloth and glanced at it, then dropped it and quickly climbed back to the bed, her heart pounding.
There were only four small words on the strip of cloth: Heaven and earth.
Heaven and earth are absolutely severe, nine tripods and one promise.
A few days later, Bailijiu received a message from Yuanbao that King Zuo Xian had left the customs safely, and they were finally going back to Beijing.
Baili Jiu is reluctant to give up, these days, the two hunt and fish, drink some wine, mess around with little sex, sing some hooligan songs, stay and fly in the hot springs, make a pair of boiled mandarin ducks, play some new tricks, and the gods do not change!
Especially when there was no one in the yard, Noya let go of his shyness, and the coquettish cry was more tender than the yellow warbler out of the valley, the blood-pumping gasp, and the hot breath exhaled simply steamed him, and the pores all over his body were transparent.
No wonder people say that Jinwu hides Jiaojiao, such Lin Nuoya, Bailijiu is reluctant to take her back to Beijing, and hates to hide her tightly, pressing the lid tightly, simmering on a high fire, and always being vigilant, beware of other people's coveting.
Instead, Noah felt the joy of the rest of his life. She sat on her horse, turned her head to look at the mansion, and couldn't help complaining: "I really want to burn this Yihong courtyard with a fire." ”
"Yihongyuan?" Baili Jiu raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised, and puzzled.
"I feel that I have been the sister in Yihong Courtyard these days, and today I finally see the light of day again."
Baili Jiu laughed in a low voice: "Don't worry, we will be frequent visitors here in the future, and the master will wrap up this Yihong Courtyard and you too." ”
As soon as the reins of the horse were mentioned, the horse's hooves were clanging, trotting all the way to the wind, chasing behind him like bubbles, the wind of early spring hit the face, and the cool cold air was wrapped in the full spring.
They walked slowly until they reached the city gate at dusk, and the soldiers guarding the city saluted respectfully and stopped the two.
"Qi Jiuye, pass on the queen's mother's message, and announce that you and Mrs. Lin will enter the palace as soon as possible after returning to Beijing, and there will be no delay."
Bailijiu was a little surprised: "The queen declares me?" What is the matter? ”
The city guard shook his head, it should be that he had a good relationship with Baili Jiu, and said to him in a low voice: "The oracle was conveyed this morning, and now the delay is not short, it is better to be faster, and be more careful." ”
It doesn't seem like a good thing to point out the good and bad in one sentence.
Baili Jiu thanked the city guard, got on his horse with Nuoya, and went straight in the direction of the palace. On the road, passers-by saw the two and pointed at Noah and whispered. His face was full of disdain and anger.
"Something seems wrong." Baili Jiu frowned: "Could it be that something happened in the capital?" Why do these people look at you so weirdly? ”
Noya reached out and tugged at the collar, and wiped her face uneasily: "Could it be that I can't carve words on my face?" ”
Bailijiu looked solemnly: "It is indeed engraved." ”
"What word?"
"Of course, it's the exclusive seal of my Baili Mansion."
"Serious, can't you? How could I have such a sense of foreboding? ”
Bailijiu shook his head: "It shouldn't be, if something big really happened in the capital, why didn't we receive any news?" ”
"You just bury your head in struggle every day, and the doors and windows are tightly covered, even if the sky falls, you will turn a deaf ear. Even if a starling comes to deliver the message, I'm afraid that you will be ashamed to run away. Noah couldn't help but sarcastically.
"There seems to be a little truth in what Madame said, for your husband only cares about making babies behind closed doors, and revel in it, are you deaf and clear, and your heart is empty and clear, and you are not aware of it?" Baili Jiu laughed evilly and teased.
Noya's face turned red to the root of his ears as soon as he "Teng", and secretly twisted it around his waist.
As soon as the two rode to the palace gate, they had to abandon the saddle and walk, and they did not need to be passed by the Praetorian Guards, so they went straight into the palace, passed through the corridor and passed through the pavilion, and came to the Yide Hall where the queen lived.
Separated by the crystal bead curtain and the layers of veils, the queen sat on the Arhat couch, in a phoenix crown and a luan suit, holding a book and reading, and did not speak coldly.
The hall was quiet, and all the palace people held their breath and acted lightly, making the atmosphere a little depressing, as if the wind and rain were about to come.
With Baili Jiu by his side, Noah felt very relieved, and did not have any apprehension, only knelt behind him upright, and counted the needle corners on his cuffs intently.
Baili Jiu knelt on the ground, with a sad face, covering his buttocks and screaming in pain: "Queen Mother, Xiao Jiu in order to track down the whereabouts of King Zuoxian, but there is no good rest for five days and five nights, this butt is sitting on the saddle, it is almost worn out, it is red and swollen, I really can't kneel, otherwise, you will give me to lie on my stomach and reply?" ”
The queen mother glanced at him and put down the hand in her hand: "In that case, you can sit here at the mourning house, right?" Let's talk from another place. ”
Baili Jiu couldn't help but be stunned, the queen mother has something to say, this gun with a stick, and a set up.
