Chapter 12: Lu Chi, King of Xiang
Wen Yujiao breathed a sigh of relief, and planned to go in to find someone.
"Who are you?" Two fierce guards suddenly appeared from both sides of the gate and blocked their way, "The prince has an order, and there are distinguished guests today." The ladies of the back house are not allowed to trespass! ”
Wen Yujiao was stunned. Guest?
She didn't want to anger King Zhao, but Mei'er's illness couldn't wait any longer.
"This big brother, please go in and hand over a message to Mama Qiu, and just say...... said that the concubine Wen had an urgent matter to see," Wen Yujiao finished speaking, and instructed Lu Zhu to take some reward silver and hand it to the guard.
"Are you Mrs. Chen of the Spring Cold Courtyard?" The guard did not accept the reward, but only asked.
"Exactly." Wen Yujiao nodded.
"Okay, you're waiting here." The guards seemed to have heard of her, and their faces looked much better, so they went to the water pavilion.
After a while, the sound of silk and bamboo on the water pavilion stopped suddenly, and Mama Qiu followed the guard out, walked across the plank road on the water and went ashore, and saluted Wen Yujiao: "Madam, what's the matter?" ”
Seeing Mama Qiu, Wen Yujiao hurriedly held the old lady's hand as if she had seen a savior, "It's not me, it's Mei'er...... She just fainted from a sudden fever! I don't know where to go to find a doctor, I want to ask Mama, is she still in the house? ”
Mama Qiu thought for a moment and replied, "Doctor Zhang? What she is good at is women's diseases, but Mrs. doesn't need to worry, we have a few skilled imperial doctors in the palace, and the old slave will send someone to invite them. ”
"Thank you, Mama Qiu!" Wen Yujiao was a little relieved at this time.
Mama Qiu turned around and said a few words to a palace guard, and then pointed in the direction of the Chunhan Courtyard, and the guard hurried towards the outer courtyard.
Wen Yujiao was just about to go with the guard, but Mama Qiu suddenly called out to her: "Madame, stay here." ”
"Mama Qiu, but is there anything else?" Wen Yujiao asked suspiciously.
"It's not the old slave, it's the prince who asked you to wait for him for a while. The prince said that he would come out soon. Mama Qiu glanced in the direction of the water pavilion.
Just now, Lu Yan heard the guards say that Mrs. Chen was coming, so he stopped the banquet and told Mama Qiu to come down first, clean up and prepare to see her.
On weekdays, Wen Yujiao saw that she had to take a detour from afar, but today she took the initiative to come to the Water Pavilion, and Lu Yan felt that something big must have happened.
"Yes." Wen Yujiao responded, but she was anxious, and looked at the direction of the Spring Cold Courtyard, hoping that the doctor would not delay and hurry up to treat Mei'er.
"Madam, relax your mind, the Imperial Doctor Huang in our palace used to diagnose His Royal Highness King Zhao, and he is the best at treating children's diseases," Mama Qiu smiled at her, "With him, Mei'er will be fine." ”
The two stood at the door and waited for a moment, and then they saw two slender young men in large hats walking out of the water pavilion.
The one who walked in front was wearing a stone blue embroidered dragon brocade robe, it was Lu Yan, the king of Zhao, and the one behind looked at the eyes, but he was also noble and extraordinary.
"Why did you suddenly come to look for Mama Qiu, but what happened?" Lu Yan walked straight to Wen Yujiao's side, and grabbed her hand in his hand without thinking about it.
In view of the fact that there were outsiders next to her, Wen Yujiao hurriedly withdrew her hand, curtsied and said, "Lord Wang, it was Mei'er who had a sudden fever, and the concubine came to find Mama Qiu and begged a doctor to go to the Chun Han Courtyard to treat Mei'er." ”
"Oh? That little girl is sick? Seeing her dodging her hand, Lu Yan was a little embarrassed, and looked at Mama Qiu again, "Have you found a doctor?" ”
The old lady nodded hurriedly and responded, "Don't worry, prince." It is not a big deal for a child to have a fever, and the old slave has already sent He Guards to ask Imperial Doctor Huang. ”
"That's good." Lu Yan nodded thoughtfully. Huang Yuyi is good at treating pediatric miscellaneous diseases, and he knows it.
This imperial doctor has been treating Lu Yan since he was a child, and he followed him all the way from Shangjing to the fiefdom, which can be described as one of his henchmen.
"This is the crown princess of Liang Kingdom?" Behind Lu Yan walked a man wearing a crimson brocade robe and a black coat.
At first glance, this person is five or six points similar to Lu Yan, with the same sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his posture is tall and slender, but under closer inspection, his eyes are dark, and his phoenix eyes are slightly raised, revealing some yin owl breath.
The man's gaze at Wen Yujiao was obviously full of covetousness and evil thoughts, which made Wen Yujiao feel uncomfortable all over, and he only glanced at the man curiously, then quickly lowered his eyes and hid to Lu Yan's side.
"This is His Royal Highness King Xiang of my Beirong." Lu Yan pointed to the man in red and introduced him to Wen Yujiao, but he didn't seem to want to say more.
"Concubine Wen, I have seen His Royal Highness King Xiang." Wen Yujiao curts, and then said to Lu Yan, "Lord, the concubine will go back to the Chunhan Courtyard first to see how Mei'er is doing." ”
"Well, you go get busy." Lu Yan bowed slightly, watching the woman leave.
"What a coquettish, budding beauty, the tenth brother has a good eye!" Xiangwang Lu Chi "tsk" twice, the saliva at the corner of his mouth was about to flow down, and he said cheekily, "Tenth brother, if you get tired of this woman one day, you might as well give it to me!" ”
Beirong established the country with Rong horses, became a king and defeated a king, and there has always been a tradition of marrying the wife of the surrenderer, and women are like cattle and sheep and treasures in Beirong, which can be bought and sold, and can naturally be shared and transferred.
Lu Chi guessed that the tenth brother was just fresh to this woman for a few days, and he would forget about it in a year at most.
If so, it's a pity for the woman's appearance and figure.
"What nonsense?!" Lu Yan's face sank instantly, "Fourteen, you are ridiculous, but Hugh wants to beat her idea." ”
King Xiang clenched his fist in one hand and half, covered his mouth and chuckled: "Tenth brother, if it is ridiculous, I dare not compare with you!" Even the crown princess of Liang Kingdom was invited to sleep on the couch by you, if you let your father know about this......"
Before this, Xiangwang Lu Chi's reputation was not bad, he liked to travel around, but he was not interested in women, except for a concubine in the palace, there were no other concubines.
It's not that Lu Chi doesn't want to take a concubine, but he hasn't met a agreeable one.
"Father, I'll go and say it. You don't mind my business! Lu Yan's face was stern, and he rebuked the man in the crimson brocade robe, "The war in the south has subsided, and you don't need your soldiers and horses." You'd better go back to Beijing quickly, don't worry your mother! ”
Weizhou is the fief of King Zhao, and Lu Chi has no jurisdiction, this time he was only ordered to come to the border because of the civil strife in Liang.
"Brother Ten, you are really not interesting, you keep such a charming and lovely stunner, but you only care about enjoying it for yourself. You and my brother, why don't you share it with me? King Xiang couldn't listen to his advice at the moment, and his mind was full of the shy and shy appearance of the woman just now.
Looking at Wen Yujiao's distant back, the young man in red licked his thin lips unconsciously, and a flame inadvertently ignited in his dark phoenix eyes.
