Early the next morning, after the maid sent by Yifan served the guard Yang Yang and washed up, she said respectfully: "Miss Xian, please come to the dining hall, our prince has been waiting there for a long time." Wei Yangyang was taken into the dining hall by her, saw Cheek Bo Yifan sitting there quietly, and asked, "Have you waited for a long time?" Seeing that she was dressed as a woman today, with a little powder, wearing a rose-red Hayes dress, which was even more gorgeous, she praised her: "It didn't last long." You look so good today. Wei Yangyang asked suspiciously: "I usually wear men's clothes, don't I look good?" The eyes of the cheeks were focused on her: "It's also good-looking, the men's clothes are magnificent, bright and moving today, and heavy makeup is always appropriate." ”

The two of them finished breakfast and went out into the street to play. Wei Yangyang carefully memorized the pattern of the streets and buildings one by one. Thinking that the purse has not been given to him yet, there are many people on this street, and it is the right time. She took out her purse from her body, handed it to Yifan, and said, "I don't know if you still lack anything, you take this silver ticket yourself, and if you need it, send someone to Bibo City to buy it back." Although Hayes is a small country, the Cillberry family is the regent and has been in power for generations, and Cillard Yifan is the son of the Cillberry family, so naturally he will not be short of money, so he refused: "Luyang, you don't have to give me silver, my family has a fief and an official position, and I am not short of money." Moreover, even if I am down, I can still sell paintings to make money, right? ”

Oh, he refused like this, and the sixth brother didn't teach him how to answer. Wei Yangyang thought about it, but couldn't think of any answer, so he said directly: "If you want to keep it, you will keep it, your purse is specially prepared for you." As soon as she said this, she suddenly felt bad, and quickly changed the topic: "You, don't you open it and see, how many silver tickets are there?" ”

When he heard her say this, he went to open the purse and saw a pomegranate flower embroidered on it. He knew that Wei Yangyang was sixteenth in the family, which obviously meant that this was her purse. But the purse was new and had never been used, and I heard her say "specially prepared for you", so it can be seen that she specially took it for herself. After he opened it, he took out the silver ticket and said, "Miss Xian is so generous, five thousand taels of silver tickets?" ”

Five thousand taels?! Wei Yangyang has never opened the purse given by Wei Bingjian since he received it. She thought it was only three or five hundred taels in it, but she didn't expect it to be five thousand taels! It would take her a hundred ears to have so many. Oh, if I had known, I would have taken out three thousand taels from it, and wouldn't it be nice to give him only two thousand taels? Anyway, the courtesy is light and affectionate, and he is not short of money. I'm angry, I'm angry. She felt remorseful in her heart, and kept complaining about why she didn't open it in advance to take a look?

Seeing her strange expression, Cheek Bo Yifan was even more sure that this purse was a gift for himself. He has lived in Dayang for a long time, and he knows more about the customs of the Central Plains than Wei Yangyang, thinking that the girl is shy and difficult to say, so he borrowed a silver ticket to give himself a purse. Could it be that this is a token of love? He asked tentatively, "Luang, the pomegranate flower on here, yes,"

He wanted to ask, "Did you embroider?" "It's me!" Before he finished speaking, Wei Yangyang answered categorically. He didn't continue to ask, happily folded the silver ticket carefully and put it back, and put the purse away close to his body.

Black Panther City is a big city in the country of Hais, and there are merchants from all over the world on the street, which is very lively. Seeing a few Hayes soldiers on the way, Wei Yangyang thought to himself: "Fifty taels, one hundred taels, one hundred and fifty taels, oops, it's a pity that I can't kill them, I missed a few hundred taels of silver in vain!" The two played around the street again, and Wei Yangyang really couldn't think of any reason to stay, so he had to say, "I'll stay one more night, and I'll have to leave tomorrow." Cheek Bo Yifan was a little reluctant in his heart, but he was afraid that she would stay for a long time, and the family would blame, so he had to say, "Okay, then I will send you out of the city tomorrow morning." ”

At noon, they came to the largest restaurant in the city to eat mutton and scorpion pot, and said to her, "Wait a minute, I will choose the mutton myself." Wei Yangyang nodded, and stood at the staircase on the second floor waiting for him, there was a fire in the room, and the heat was unbearable, so she pulled down her face towel. At this time, an official was about to go downstairs, and saw that she was wearing the clothes of an ordinary Hayes woman, but she looked like a person from the Central Plains, and the official said to her: "Yo, this Xiaoni, have we seen it anywhere?" Wei Yangyang was startled, she didn't know if this person had seen her on the battlefield. But it shouldn't be possible, she went to the battlefield to wear armor and go to Bibo City to cover her face, this person shouldn't know her. The man was drunk, pointed his finger at her and said, "Oh, I see, I've seen you in Jiangnan." ”

Wei Yangyang was shocked, thinking to himself, didn't he go with Cheek Bo Snow Butterfly on the day he met with Cheek Bo Yifan at Songpu Pier? Otherwise, how could you have seen yourself? Only that day did she face the Hayes without covering her face. When the man saw that she did not answer, he was even more emboldened, and even reached out and touched her face. She couldn't really do anything here, so she had to crouch down and dodge the man's hand. The man was indeed from the Hayes army, and he knew how to do some work, and when he saw that she was dodging, he stretched out his hand to grab her. She hurriedly ran down the stairs to the first floor. Ran around the corner and bumped into a sail with cheeks.

Seeing her panicked, Cheek Bo Yifan surrounded the veil as he ran down, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”

She was afraid that she would be recognized by the other party when she spoke, so she didn't say a word, but just stood face to face in front of the cheeks, so that she could turn her back to the person. The man obviously knew the cheeks, and hurriedly saluted: "The son of the world knows this girl?" Cheek Bo Yifan asked to know that things had changed, put away his smile, his tone was serious, and asked the man: "What, you know her too?" The man had really been to Jiangnan, and he replied: "I feel a little familiar, as if I have seen her in the Fenjin Building in Hangxian County." "That Fan Jinlou is the name of a brothel in Hangzhou County, he said this, naturally because he had been to Jiangnan, and went to Qiantang Prefecture to loot in Hangzhou County.

When they spoke to Wei Yangyang, they used Dayang official dialect, but the conversation between the two of them was the local dialect of Seal City. Hearing him say this, Cheek Bo Yifan was flustered, he didn't know if Wei Yangyang could understand. The man said that she looked like a girl in a brothel, which was obviously a great insult to the Dayang official woman. So he hurriedly rebuked the man: "Shut up! This young lady is a friend of mine. Although he looks sven, he has a high status in the Great Yang Kingdom, and when he reprimanded him, the man was so frightened that he woke up halfway, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, if you offend, you will leave." ”

When he went downstairs in a panic, Wei Yangyang pretended not to understand anything, and asked curiously, "What did you just say to that person?" He ran away right away? Seeing that she didn't understand, he relieved himself and only said, "It's nothing, he dared to beat your idea, I scolded him away." Just now, Wei Yangyang was afraid of being recognized, so he rarely didn't move, and he was so close to him that he could even smell the fragrance on her hair. Now that the man was gone, she immediately stepped back, her expression returning to normal. In his heart, he even felt a little regretful, he should have kept that person for a while, why did he get rid of him so quickly? After eating this meal, it was closer to the time when the two were separated, and he was even a little reluctant in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, so he only smiled and said, "Okay, don't be afraid, it's okay." Let's go upstairs to dinner. ”

After entering the warm pavilion, Wei Yangyang dared to take off the face towel. The two of them gathered around a pot of sheep and scorpions and began to feast. Although it was cold outside, it was warm inside, and Wei Yangyang's face was red when he ate, and he couldn't wipe his sweat. She didn't like the hot tea, so she deliberately let it go cold, and drank it in one go. After a while, the maid brought in a large bowl of fish soup, and she said to her, "Drink some more fish soup, and it won't be cold all night." When they were full and warm, they happily went downstairs and went back to the inn.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard of the post house, Wei Yangyang suddenly covered his stomach and said, "Oops, it hurts." As soon as she finished speaking, her lower abdomen cramped like never before, making her almost unsteady on her feet. Cheek Bo hurriedly helped her sit down on the stone bench in the courtyard, and said with great concern: "What's wrong?" Is it sick? Wei Yangyang was angry: "The dish is poisonous, you hurry up and find a doctor, don't get poisoned like me." If I let me know who poisoned me, I," she continued to scream, but the pain came over her as if she had been beaten with a hammer in the stomach.

When he heard her say this, he also panicked: "Poisonous? He hurriedly instructed the maid, "Go and call a doctor, oh no, go and call a doctor." Then he helped Wei Yangyang back to the bedroom. Wei Yangyang only felt that her lower abdomen was turned upside down, and the pain was so cold that she was sweating, but she wanted to be strong, gritted her teeth and stiffened, and her face was very pale. By the time the female doctor arrived, she was almost fainting in pain.

Cheek Bo Yifan walked outside the house to avoid suspicion. The female doctor checked it first, and it was not a symptom of poisoning, so she asked her, "Miss Xian, when is your monthly letter?" Wei Yangyang gritted his teeth and said, "No, sometimes longer, sometimes shorter." The last time was on the second day of February. The female doctor calculated the time, today is March 14, and it is time to send a monthly letter.

She asked, "What did you eat today?" Is there anything different from the usual day? Wei Yangyang endured the pain and said it again. The female doctor said, "It should be that Yuexin is coming in the next two days." She first instructed the maid, "Go and pour two pots and put them in the bed, and warm Miss Xian's belly." Then prepare the things you need for the monthly letter. She looked at Wei Yangyang again and said, "Miss, don't be afraid, I will prescribe some medicine and drink it for a few days, and it won't hurt so much." Wei Yangyang was a little uneasy, and asked: "Isn't it poisoning?" But I've never been in this pain before. The female doctor said, "If you are too tired or eat the wrong thing, it may hurt when the monthly letter comes." Don't eat cold, raw and cold food on weekdays. She instructed what should be paid attention to, and saw that Wei Yangyang's face was better, and then walked out.

Cheek Bo hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Is it poisoned? What's going on now? The female doctor said, "I think I ate mutton and fish at the same time tonight, and drank cold water, so I have abdominal pain." The fish is cold, and when the moon letter is coming, the body is already weak. The slave maid asked someone to pour two pots to warm her stomach, and prescribed medicine, which was the most painful two days before the monthly letter, and it would be better in three or four days. Although he was a man, he also knew what was going on with the woman's monthly letter, and he said: "Two warm pots are not enough, so they are prepared day and night, and they cannot be broken." He heard that Wei Yangyang had already lay down, so he couldn't be disturbed, so he had to go back to the palace first.

It may be that he has been sleeping on the road for more than ten days, and the cold air invades his body, and Wei Yangyang has been in pain for two days before he can get up. On the afternoon of the third day, Cheek Bo Yifan came to see her at the post house again. Seeing that although her face was still pale, her spirit was finally better than the first two days. Although Wei Yangyang doesn't see herself as a girl on weekdays, this month's letter is the biggest difference between men and women. As soon as she thought that her cheeks might have known what she was sick for, and when she saw the other person again, she began to twist.

Cheek Bo Yifan looked at her pale face and said, "Oh, it still looks very weak, rest for two more days, and then leave when you're ready." Seeing him say this, Wei Yangyang began to be shy like never before, and he didn't speak, just nodded.

Cheek Bo wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to ask, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence: "Does your stomach still hurt?" Wei Yangyang didn't dare to look at him, just shook his head: "It's okay." ”

While the two were talking, an attendant came in and said, "Shizi, a message has been sent from Bibo City." Cheek Bo Yifan had no choice but to say to Wei Yangyang: "You wait for me for a while, I'll go back when I go." He and his attendant walked out the door, and the two talked in a low voice in the Hayes dialect. Wei Yangyang was originally sitting at the table waiting for him, but she heard the intermittent voices of two people outside the door, saying words such as "Wangfu" and "Encirclement and Suppression". She thought that the news from Bibo City was just a message from a calligraphy and painting friend who was there from Yifan, but they said that there was only one palace in the entire Houwan County, and that was the palace where the prince was located!

King Ji is the title given to his third brother by his grandfather, and his fief is in Bibo City, and now he is the seventh generation of King Jin. Originally, Grandpa Tai wanted him to sit in Houwan and defend against the Four Kingdoms, and by the way, he asked the royal palace and the Wei family to contain and cooperate with each other. But more than a hundred years have passed, the Wei family is loyal and guards the border well, and the military power of the prince is getting smaller and smaller. Why is Cheek Wave connected to him? Wei Yangyang hurriedly left the table and tiptoed to the back of the door, fortunately, she and Chou Bo Yiwei had learned the local dialect of Black Panther City, and although the two of them spoke quickly, she could also listen to seven or eight tenths.

It turned out that the prince mistakenly thought that the cheek wave snow butterfly had returned to Black Panther City, so he sent someone to deliver a message, saying that he had followed the attack on Haixi this time and did a good job. So he promised that his weapons, grain and grass, and when the spring thawed, he would send someone to send them. He will be informed of the next time he attacks Hercy. Who knew that Cheek Bo Snow Butterfly first went to the national capital Turtle City to meet the monarch, but did not return, so the attendant came to pass the word and asked Cheek Bo Yifan if he wanted to meet the person sent by the prince of Yi.

Hearing this, Wei Yangyang was taken aback, it turned out that the cheek wave snow butterfly didn't really want to grab food, just to complete the task assigned by the prince Yi! What is the reason why the prince of Yi fornicated with the enemy country and provided them with food and salary to attack the Wei family? Could it be that he wants to rebel? When she thought of this, she was also taken aback by her own thoughts. Rebel? That's a heinous crime that is too slow to be decided, what is the prince trying to do? She didn't know anything about the government and didn't dare to think about it, so she saw that she was about to go back to the house, and hurriedly sat back in her seat.

Cheek Bo Yifan also had a difficulty in his heart, he didn't want to be an enemy of the Wei family, but if he wanted him to betray his father, he really couldn't do it. He frowned and thought for a moment, and then said to the attendant: "You let the messenger go back, just say that I have received the news, and when my father returns, I will tell you." He calmed down again, and tried to pretend to be as relaxed as possible, before he opened the curtain and came in.

Wei Yangyang picked up the pine nuts on the table, and while eating, he deliberately asked him, "Why did you go for so long?" Don't you want to play with me anymore? He was so panicked that he had to pretend to be calm and light on the surface, and said, "Oh, my father is not here, and everything in Black Panther City will be reported to me, so wait for it." Wei Yangyang asked again: "I just heard the words "Bibo City", why, you haven't been to Bibo City for a long time, and the girl in Dayang misses you?" Hearing her ask, Cheek Bo Yifan hurriedly denied: "There is no such thing, I have only made friends with literati and ink writers in Bibo City, and I don't know any girls at all." Oh no, I only know one girl with a big yang, and that's you. ”

For the next four days, the two of them visited all the fun places in Black Panther City. When the monthly letter passed, Wei Yangyang had no reason to stay here anymore, so he had to go home. Cheek gave her a good horse and packed her with a lot of good food. He also personally sent her out of the city. Outside Zhilu City, which is adjacent to Black Panther City, Wei Yangyang waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't send it, and then send it to Haixi." ”

When they came, they were afraid of alarming the defense of the Hays army, and they did not dare to enter the various cities, they all went around from outside the city, and they set up tents at night, and suffered a lot. He took the waist card from his body and said, "This is the waist card of our cheek family, you don't have to go out of the city, you can enter and leave the cities of Hays freely." If you are tired at night, go to the post houses in each city to live, and when people see the waist card, they will arrange a room for you. Wei Yangyang said yes and put away the waist card. Then you have to get on the horse.

Cheek Bo Yifan was reluctant and worried, but he didn't dare to say it explicitly, so he hinted: "Yangyang, if you encounter something difficult and you really can't solve it, come to me." Wei Yangyang felt funny: "What I can't solve, can you solve it?" Cheek Bo Yifan was anxious, and said even more stumblingly: "For example, if you encounter any critical moment, the Wei family can't protect you." Oh, of course, it won't be the case, I'm just making an analogy. In case something happens to the Wei family, and you don't have time to care about you, you must come with a waist card, and I will protect you. If my father wants to kill me, let's elope together. ”

Elope? His upside-down words, Wei Yangyang listened inexplicably. But the other party was kind, and she still had to thank her. When she was about to get on the horse, Cheek Bo Yifan suddenly stopped him and asked, "Luyang, will you come again?" Wei Yangyang shook his head: "I don't know, but I shouldn't be here next month." At the end of next month, it is your brother's death day, and I am going to worship him. If you want to worship him, you can come to Hercynian and find me, and we will go together. ”

After the death of the cheek wave, the Hayes only knew that he died in the water demon barracks, but their body was not found. Hearing Wei Yangyang say this, Cheek Bo Yifan was excited and asked, "Do you know where his body is buried?" Wei Yangyang felt very strange and said, "Yes, I buried him, how could I not know." Right where the two of us often meet and play. Cheek Bo Yifan was even more emotional, and asked again: "Then, do you know how he died?" After he asked, he regretted it a little, for fear that Wei Yangyang said that he was killed by the Wei family's army, and the friendship between the two of them would no longer exist.

Who knew that Wei Yangyang's expression changed color instantly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Naturally I know!" He was killed by Dunbut. But don't worry, I've avenged him. On his face, an expression of disbelief appeared: "You say, my brother was killed by Dun Butuo?" The right general of the Water Demon Country, can't get rid of it? Wei Yangyang still gritted his teeth: "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes, can I still lie to you?" She saw that her cheeks were angry and shocked, and then she understood what he was thinking, and suddenly became a little angry: "You don't believe it? Then you come to Hercy next month, I will take you to his grave, and you can pry open the coffin to see if he died from a short shot. ”

The weapons used by the water demons are short spears, while the Wei family army often uses long spears and broadswords, and the cheeks are naturally known. Furious, he said what was in his heart: "I always thought that my brother was killed by the Wei family army. Now it was Wei Yangyang's turn to be shocked and angry, and she said loudly: "Hey, your brother was only over ten years old at the time, and he didn't wear armor and didn't know martial arts, why did our Wei family army kill him?" You think we're as bad as the Water Demons? Even women and children are killed? That's what only animals do. Brute, huh. She scolded a few times, but it was not enjoyable, and she was about to scold again, when she saw the appearance of her cheeks, she obviously couldn't believe it. So she explained, "I was caught by Dun Butuo before, and he asked your brother to identify people to see who was the daughter of King Weiyan, and your brother didn't identify me. I took advantage of the chaos to escape. Later, when he found out that your brother had lied to him, he killed him while there was no one around. I was there at the time, but, but he was badly injured and I couldn't save him. Her voice grew lower and lower, and she bit her lower lip and said no more.

She has always felt guilty and felt that the death of Cheek Bo Yiwei was related to herself, so she never confided in others easily, if it wasn't for Cheek Wave Yifan who took the initiative to ask today, she would never have said it. He only felt that his heart was turning upside down, and he was stunned for a long time before he had the strength to speak: "Okay, next month, I will go to Haixi and go with you to sweep my brother's grave." ”

Wei Yangyang only said four words: "A word is a certainty", and then got on the horse and left. After she entered each city, she deliberately dismounted, inquired all the way to the post house, and memorized the deployment of troops along the way and the thickness of the city wall. It was not until the end of March that she returned to Hercy.
