Volume 2 Reversal of the Song of the Dynasty One Hundred and Twenty-Three Meng Ji Shaoji
To his surprise, when he pushed open the door of the tuanhua, Wei Gongzi and Zheng'an were sitting inside waiting for him! As soon as they met, the two of them were stunned, but Wei He reacted first, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why are you here?" I'm going to call someone to summon you to invite you!" Don't you want to come by yourself? ”
Kui Duoyou also instinctively asked: "Why did Childe leave the East Palace?" Haven't you always had to accompany the prince to study? "The job of accompanying the reader is not limited to accompanying the prince to study, but also to accompany the prince to eat, play, and hunt in the field------ in short, he has to do whatever the prince does, where do you have to be free?
The corners of Wei He's mouth twitched: "What else do you say?" Where is the prince free? He's in charge of the kingdom! Every day, Zhao Guogong picked up the book he had approved into the East Palace, let the prince read it in detail one by one, and the next day he had to explain the pros and cons to him in detail. Ji Hu's kid is now one head and two years old, how can he have time to play with me? ”
Although he was angry in his heart, Wei He spoke interestingly, and Duoyou couldn't help laughing, and laughed out loud: "So, you slipped out to play with me?" ”
Unexpectedly, hearing this, Wei He made a small face and said seriously: "I have something to tell you about looking for you." Prepare yourself and come back to defend the country with me! ”
This time it was Kui Duoyou's turn to be surprised: "Go back to defend the country?" How is this said? Didn't you just receive a letter from home? Why do you suddenly want to go back to the court? ”
Speaking of the family letter, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Monk Wei's immature face: "My father said in the letter that he misses me very much, and his health is deteriorating, and he is worried that he will not be able to see me for the last time." My mother also leaned on the fence day and night to look west, and they hoped that I would find an opportunity to ask the king to allow me to return to the country and province. I saw that the crown prince had been worried about the safety of the king's western expedition during the war, and he was embarrassed to speak. Now that the king's triumph is imminent, I have asked for my return, and the prince has been approved. Just wait for the king to nod, and then you can go. ”
As a patriot, Kui Duoyou still knows that the rift between the prince and the prince Ji Yu has been around for a long time, otherwise with his status as such a favored young son, how could Baba send Ho Jing to be the prince's companion? So he asked tentatively, "Does Wei Shizi know about this?" ”
Wei He pouted disdainfully: "I know what." Even King Zhou is approved, what else can he say? Besides, I have something to do when I return to China. ”
"What can you do?" Looking at his serious little appearance, Kui Duoyou quipped.
Unexpectedly, Wei He raised his hands behind his back and paced up in a decent manner: "First, I came to escort Wei Wu's coffin back to Chaoge, after all, as a national teacher, she has to do things decently in the future, and she can't be hastily buried in another country; Second, I have to escort Qi Jiang's mother and daughter back to the Song Kingdom, why will Zifu's father wait for her at the border of Wei and Song. ”
Kui Duoyou listened to it, and felt fortunate at the same time: he was falling out with Zhao Bohu, and it happened that Gongzi He was about to return to defend the country, it was like being sleepy and someone sent a pillow, great! Wouldn't it be nice to meet again next time, after a long time, things will fade away? So, he agreed without thinking about it: "Okay, Childe, there is no need to say it, I will go back to Chaoge with you!" ”
Three days later, King Zhou Yi led the Sixth Division of the West to return to Beijing in triumph, leading a long list of captures and booty, especially thousands of good horses that could not be seen at a glance, passing through the city gate with infinite scenery, and the whole city cheered and admired. The mountains of incense bags, embroidered bags, flowers, and fruits were all thrown to the young and heroic generals of the Western Sixth Division. A bold woman dared to throw a few flowers at the king of Zhou, almost causing the guards of the forbidden army to draw their swords.
The strange thing is that the king of Yi in the king's car did not react, neither got out of the carriage to have fun with the people, nor was he angry because of those few flowers, and went on a killing spree (he has been very moody lately), but it made the two princes of Zhou Zhao breathe a sigh of relief.
The subjects of the Western Zhou Dynasty soon felt that their king was different from before. Especially the fan who walked out of the hall in frustration, his personal feeling was even stronger. He came to congratulate King Yi on his victory, and wanted to take advantage of the king's happiness to offer his second daughter, but he didn't want to touch his nose. If it weren't for the fact that he was the queen's eldest brother, I was afraid that he would end up being cooked alive like Qi Aihou.
Looking at his grizzled appearance, Zhao Bohu didn't need to ask and knew that it hadn't been done, so he stepped forward and comforted: "Father-in-law, don't be discouraged, how about persuading the king when the son-in-law enters?" ”
This remark made Fanzi cheer up a little, and he patted his son-in-law on the shoulder and said: "Don't force it, the king seems to be deploring the queen's death ------, and he hasn't come out yet." ”
Zhao Bohu bowed and saluted, straightened his clothes, knelt outside the hall and said loudly: "The minister Zhaohu asks to see the king!" ”
Jia Yingying, an inner servant, came out, swept the dust, and shouted in a sharp voice: "The king has a decree, please summon the prince of the country to meet inside!" ”
After more than a month, Zhao Bohu only felt that King Zhou Yi's spirit was much better, not as decadent as before the expedition, but he had lost a lot of weight, and his already angular facial features were even more three-dimensional. Before he could salute, Ji Xie asked first: "Is it your idea that Fanzi wants to sacrifice a woman to the inner palace?" ”
The tone is calm, and I can't hear joy or anger. Zhao Bohu didn't dare to raise his head, and replied truthfully: "It's really the idea of my father-in-law and the cheap, but the minister also agrees." The king misses the queen, and the minister wants to be the same as his surname, and his face and temperament must be similar. ”
The words were sincere, and Ji Xie felt a little moved: "I know Aiqing's intentions, but I ------" He shook his head painfully: "A woman like Aji is unique in the world, and other people------ even if they are flesh and blood, can only resemble and be divine." That's it! Drawing a tiger is not an anti-dog, why bother! Cause a sad ------"
"The queen is indeed a strange woman in the world ------." Zhao Bohu is also infinitely emotional.
Ji Xie's eyes were full of sadness and pain: "Lone is also a recent reminiscence, only to realize the benefits of the queen, the more I think about it, the more painful I feel." Although she is a woman, Wen Taowu is above Lonely, and every time there is a major military event, she can always analyze Lone and sort out the context. Many things, I didn't expect, but she had already taken care of it for me. With her there, Lone felt that he was not alone sitting on this throne, and there was always a Yiping behind him. But now that she is gone, Lone has become a real loner. ”
His voice grew deeper and deeper the more he spoke, and the only thing he could do was whimper. Zhao Bohu looked embarrassed, the master cried in front of the courtiers, he had never experienced such a situation, it was not good to continue like this, he could no longer dwell on this topic, he changed his mind and said: "The king set up an altar to summon the soul of the queen before, and now the minister sees that Mengji and Shaoji have similarities with the queen's appearance, why don't the king ------"
Before he could finish speaking, Ji Xie waved his hand again and again: "That's it, that's it, Lonely Heart has been buried with the queen in the royal tomb." A living dead, why should he delay the queen's two nieces of the age of flowers? ”
"But the king," this time Bohu was really anxious: "The minister's wife said that the father-in-law is here to bring the second daughter into the palace, and the person has been brought out, and there is no reason to send it back to Fanguo." If the king refuses to accept it, what kind of face will the father-in-law and the second self have to return to Fanguo? Only one died. ”
Ji Xie sighed lightly: "That's the case, so be it." Before the young man is ready, he will be sent to the East Palace to serve the prince. After all, it is Aji's mother's family, and Hu'er will not refuse. As for Meng Ji, Zimu, you will bring it back to the house as a wife, and the sisters will serve you together, which is also a good story. ”
Aristocratic men in the Western Zhou Dynasty generally married their wives at the age of twenty and after the crown, and there were women in the house before that, which was equivalent to the so-called "Tongfang" in later generations. These women are nameless and shareless, and are often hastily dismissed after the main wife enters the door, so they are generally filled by low-status maidservants. Shao Ji is the concubine of Fanzi, so it can be said that she is wronged, but Ji Hu is the prince after all, and she is not wronged left and right. That Shen Jiang is five years younger than the prince, and it is still early for her to get married, taking advantage of this "vacuum period" If she really cultivates a deep relationship with the prince, she will not be able to gain a foothold in the palace in the future.
Thinking about the plans of his father-in-law and his wife, Zhao Bohu could conclude that they would definitely raise their hands in approval, so he didn't think about it, and promised: "The minister obeys the order." ”
The evening breeze blew slowly, and the lights in the main house of the Zhaoguo Mansion floated, and the flickering lights shone on the faces of the two women in it, but they suddenly found that they were quite similar faces. Bai Shengsheng's face, delicate eyebrows and eyes, especially slender eyebrows, are exactly the label appearance of the woman surnamed Fan.
Zhaoji stood in his head, and he didn't dare to raise his head in shame, but dared to murmur to his husband: "Thank you Fujun for taking it in, otherwise my sister will only die." ”
Meng Ji was behind his sister, so ashamed that he didn't dare to raise his head, he had already heard that his son Mu Nai was the most beautiful man in Hojing, and he had always longed for it. Now people are in front of them, but they don't dare to look up and peek, from her point of view, they can only see a clear back and a dark purple big cloud. Suddenly, a low and slow male voice sounded, very beautiful:
Madame said. In the past two years, you have been in charge of housework and sleeping at night, which is really hard. Now that you have a maiden sister to share with you, it can also be easier. Zhao Bohu seemed to think of something again, and his tone was abrupt: "It's just ------that you should discuss this matter with me first, knowing that your father and daughter mean the palace, I will not force it." Now that Duoyou and I have a disagreement, they want to follow Wei Gongzi back to the court, and I don't know when we will see each other again? ”
When he heard this, he was even more ashamed, almost crying, and suddenly knelt down and said, "Husband, it's all the concubine's fault." The concubine doesn't know what to do to redeem it? The concubine is a woman, and it is inconvenient to go out, so why don't you ask your father to come to the door on behalf of the concubine to apologize to General Ziliang? ”
"Let's go, it's come to this, what's the good of entangling it any longer?" Zhao Bohu turned around violently, and what caught Meng Ji's eyes was a beautiful and handsome person like a beautiful jade, with a pair of eyes as clear as water, and how much affection and sweetness she wanted to say was included in it, she was stunned for a while.
