Chapter 10 Judging the Situation and Sizing Up the Situation
The tent of Concubine Yelu is now stinking, and the female slaves who come in and out have a bitter face, and they dare not show disgust or ridicule, and they endure it very hard. Shu Ji Piggyback
“...... Unparalleled, how dare you ...... I, Jeregina, will never let you go!"
Concubine Yelu lay on the bucket, moaning weakly, her eyes full of hatred.
"Do you think that if you curl up under the wings of the Queen Mother, I, Yelu Jina, will have nothing to do with you? It's really ridiculous! When did our Yelu family ever fear the Yan family?...... Oops! Oops, my stomach, you shit, why hasn't the Great Witch Doctor come over?...... Oops! It hurts!"
The intermittent moans of the concubine made her way through her tent and into the outdoors.
Zhuang Meiyan and Snow Kite, who happened to pass by here, couldn't help but smile at each other, Snow Kite tried her best to endure it, and finally didn't laugh out loud, Zhuang Meiyan could barely restrain herself, and her smile was also full of corners of her eyes, and her expression was happy.
The two of them quickened their pace to leave the tent area of the concubines, and the snow kite looked around to make sure that there was no one around, and then whispered: "In the end, the master still has a way! Just now, the slave and maid were scared to death, and the concubine Yelu was violent, and the slave and maid were really afraid that she would call out some executioner - the slave and the maid were afraid that the queen would suffer a loss." ”
Snow Kite cautiously looked around again, lowered her voice again, and said: "Queen, please forgive the slave and maid for talking too much, now that the lord of the country is outside, we are weak in Wenkoer, and we are aliens, it is really not appropriate to fight with them, everything-"
Zhuang Meiyan raised her eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Forbearance, do you want to say that everything makes me more forbearant?"
Snow Kite hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Yes! When the lord of the country returns, he will make the decision for you." Today, you came to meet the Queen Mother, it is good that the Queen Mother can support you, but she clearly hated you to the bone before, and she couldn't wait to get out quickly, and now who knows what kind of calculation she is making?
Snow Kite is not as arrogant as Chunju, she is thoughtful and considers things more carefully. She expressed her concerns very tactfully, and Zhuang Meiyan bowed slightly after hearing this.
"I know what you mean. I used to think the same as you, thinking that as long as you endure everything, you will always get through, but then something changed my mind, and since then I have understood that there are some people and some things that you can't bear at all, and you can't let them go. Some people she has no bottom line, and she will never know how to be satisfied, the best way to deal with this kind of person is to fight back, the strength must be great, and the weight must be sufficient, because if you don't hit her and hurt her, she will not understand where your untouchable bottom line is. ”
"However, it is too dangerous to fight like this, and you are still pregnant with children, what if they have bad intentions against you?"
"Do you think that I can protect my child if I am patient?" Zhuang Meiyan said calmly, with a strong gaze in her eyes, and she did not flinch, "I am fighting for my children." Since I have the courage to come to this foreign land, I must have the ability to protect myself and the people I love, I can do it. I must not be a burden to him!"
Zhuang Meiyan looked resolute, and the snow kite beside her was also infected by her, and nodded: "The slave maid obeys the queen's orders in everything, and the slave maid is also willing to protect you and the little prince with her life." ”
Zhuang Meiyan smiled slightly and said, "It's rare for you to have a heart!" However, things are far from being as bad as you imagined. Concubine Yelu is a person who shows her teeth and claws on the surface, but she is not terrible, she gave birth to two sons for the first king of Wuyang, and her grace is not as good as the queen mother who has no heirs, which shows that this woman is either limited in ability or is not popular with the family, otherwise, why does the Yelu family not protect the prince of their own family, but instead do their best to help an unknown Xiao Xuanchen?"
The snow kite who said something nodded secretly, admiring in her heart.
Zhuang Meiyan changed her words and said: "Besides, even the Queen Mother can see that I came to visit Concubine Yelu yesterday is actually insincere, and she thinks that I am bowing my head to her to show weakness, which is really stupid." Such a role is not to worry about, but this queen mother, honor and disgrace are not shocked, can advance and retreat, met that day, Concubine Yelu made a statement to provoke and almost killed her own niece, she didn't even blink, this person's heart is as hard as iron, if it is not a matter of interest, she will never consider it, in her eyes, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed. She's the real character, and she's the one we can't just face. ”
"So what are we going to do in the future?"
"Do what you want!" Zhuang Meiyan didn't seem to have any plans, and said casually.
The two walked forward slowly, and Zhuang Meiyan couldn't help but think of the situation in the Queen Mother's tent just now.
After she said that Suna's youngest son had been hit by the miasma, she was silent. The Queen Mother's face became more and more cold, and the surrounding atmosphere became tense, but Zhuang Meiyan didn't care.
"If you want to say anything, you might as well say it directly! Wuyang people don't like to beat around the bush. The Queen Mother said slowly.
Zhuang Meiyan smiled and said, "Yes! ”
"It's autumn and it's cool, so how can you get a miasma in the tent area? This child is not sick sooner or later, but he got sick when the lord of the country left Wenkoer, and at this time, it is also the time when Meiyan needs Suna the most, so Meiyan dares to conclude that someone is trying to harm me, and today I am here to ask the Queen Mother to shelter me. Zhuang Mei's face was sincere, and there was a faint hint of begging.
The Queen Mother pondered for a moment and said, "Do you have evidence for this matter?"
Zhuang Meiyan sighed and said, "I'm not afraid of the Queen Mother's jokes, the reason why Meiyan is so worried is because the lord of the country had a strange dream on the night he left Wenkoer." In her dream, two flags suddenly appeared on the clouds in the sky, one blue and one white, each occupying half of the sky at first, and finally the blue flag was actually getting bigger and bigger, completely covering the position of the white flag. The white flag is a symbol of the royal family, so Mei Yan is afraid that someone will be bad for the royal family!"
The Queen Mother raised the corners of her eyes, and then lowered her eyebrows and said: "Dreaming is such a thing, it is the advice given to you by the wolf god, you should go to the high priest for help, not ask me." ”
"I asked the High Priest yesterday and he said it was not a good omen and told me to be careful. Zhuang Meiyan replied.
"I see!So you assume it's her, and yesterday you didn't even go into her tent, is that why you didn't even want to go in?"
"Yes, Wu Yang doesn't have a rule that he will never enter the door of the enemy's house. I have always felt guilty about the matter of the little princess Sumya, although I have most of the responsibility for this matter, but I will not forgive a woman who sow discord, and I will not forget that it was because of her provocation that forced the Queen Mother to enforce the family law. ”
A look of pain flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes, all of this did not escape Zhuang Meiyan's sharp eyes, she remained silent and continued: "Meiyan came today to pray for your protection, I don't know if the Queen Mother is willing to be my protector?"
This is already a **naked surrender to the truth, and the Queen Mother must express something.
However, the Queen Mother just smiled slightly and said, "You are the queen of Wuyang Kingdom, and only the lord of the country is qualified to be your protector." ”
Zhuang Meiyan silently lowered her head and sighed softly.
The Queen Mother then said: "However, the entire Wuyang Kingdom belongs to His Majesty the Lord, so the entire Wuyang Kingdom is your best protection, what are you afraid of?"
Zhuang Meiyan's eyes lit up, and she got up and solemnly bowed.
"Oh, what's wrong with that man?" exclaimed Snow Kite, bringing Zhuang Meiyan back to reality from her memories of her thoughts.
She raised her head and looked in the direction that the snow kite knew, and saw a young man lying under a big tree, his face flushed, his breathing was unusually rapid, and his chest was rising and falling sharply, looking a little frightening. He was dressed in a red robe, with white feathers on his head, he should be a nobleman, looking at his age of thirteen or fourteen years old at most, with a thin body, slender eyebrows and eyes, a bit like a girl.
The boy gasped weakly, looking at them with a pair of dark eyes, his eyes were stubborn, and he did not mean to ask them for help, but showed a warning meaning. He struggled to move his body, trying to avoid their gaze, but he didn't have the strength to move too far in his current situation.
Zhuang Meiyan and Snow Kite slowly approached the young man, and Zhuang Meiyan asked with concern, "Are you having a wheezing attack?" Snow Kite, go and call the big witch doctor to come and have a look." ”
"But, Queen, if the slave is gone, you will be left alone...... Why don't you send you back to the tent first, and then go to the great witch doctor to treat the child. "Snow kites don't worry.
"If you are told to go, you can go, the great witch doctor is not far away, I will wait here for a while. ”
The snow kite didn't dare to say anything more, and hurriedly took the order.
Zhuang Meiyan saw that the child's face had turned red and pale, and the sound of breathing was inaudible, knowing that his condition was getting more and more serious, and he was a little anxious.
"By the way, do you have any medicine with you?" Zhuang Meiyan remembered that this kind of asthma is generally congenital, and it often attacks, so she should bring medicine with you.
The young man didn't have the strength to answer her, just looked at it with his eyes, Zhuang Meiyan looked up and saw that there was a small cloth bag hanging from the branch above her head, so she stood on tiptoe and hooked the cloth bag off. The cloth bag is very small, embroidered with colorful flowers, the embroidery is exquisite, even Zhuang Meiyan is amazed, but this thing looks more like a woman's purse, unlike the things used by boys.
Zhuang Meiyan didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly poured out a small black pill from the cloth bag and stuffed it into the boy's mouth. The medicine really worked, and after a while, the young man's face gradually returned to ruddy, and his breathing slowly became even.
"Are you better?" Zhuang Meiyan leaned down with concern and wiped his sweat with a silk handkerchief.
The young man suddenly waved his hand to knock off her silk handkerchief, his expression was a little irritable, and at the same time he said rudely in a hoarse voice: "Give it to me!"
"What?" Zhuang Meiyan was a little confused.
The boy continued to stretch out one hand and stubbornly said, "Give it to me......!" Take my stuff ...... Give it back to me!"
His wheezing had not fully recovered, and his speech was staccato but unusually resolute.
Zhuang Meiyan had never seen such a quirky and stubborn child, and couldn't help but be secretly amused. She looked at the cloth bag in her hand, and immediately understood that the child wanted this, so she reached out and handed it over.
"Here you go! Take it well next time, don't let people rob it." ”
"You, how do you know?" said the child, gasping for breath, his face flushing again, his eyes glowing with anger.
Zhuang Meiyan smiled and said, "Could it be that the cloth bag will run to the tree by itself?"
"You, you are talking nonsense!" the young man said angrily, "You people here are not good people!
Zhuang Meiyan was completely amused by his childishness, and shook his head helplessly. At this time, she saw that Snow Kite was also coming over with the Great Witch Doctor, so she beckoned to them.
The old snow kite panted and ran over with the big witch doctor and said, "Queen, queen, the big witch doctor is here." What about the kid?"
Zhuang Meiyan turned his head to see that the child was gone, and only the three of them were left under the big tree looking at each other.
What a quirky kid!
In the queen mother's tent, now only the queen mother and her companion Dolma are left, the queen mother reclines on the couch, and Zhuoma carefully helps her comb her hair.
"Dolma, what do you think of the queen?"
Dolma replied softly, "She is a very smart peerless person, and she knows how to judge the situation. ”
"A man without a man is a man without a man, and a sheep on the plains cannot become an antelope on the mountains. She is indeed very smart and can see who is weak and who is strong, but she still doesn't understand that in Wuyang, the weak have no right to survive, this is Wuyang's law. Does she think that by clinging to me she will be able to avoid all misfortunes?
"Now that she's set the finger on the enemy, let her throw. She had a conflict with Concubine Yelu, which is beneficial to the Queen Mother, so why not wait and see? No matter what the result is, it will be beneficial to you. ”
The Queen Mother glanced at Zhuoma, nodded slowly, and said, "What you said is good." Let's wait and see!"
