Chapter 16: The name of this thing is gentle incense
Ah Ruan was still wondering where the young lady had gone, when she saw His Royal Highness King Lin walking towards the bedroom with Bai Jiangyi in his arms. Seeing this, Ah Ruan greeted him: "His Royal Highness the King of Lin..."
Yu Yi looked at Bai Jiangyi, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and shook his head gently, Ah Ruan also nodded, opened the door of the bedroom first, and closed the door again after Yu Yi sent Bai Jiangyi in.
There was no candle in the room and it was dark. Yu Yi took advantage of the moonlight to put Bai Jiangyi on the bed and covered her with a quilt. The moonlight shone on Bai Jiangyi's face through the window, and the cold moonlight met Bai Jiangyi's drunken red cheeks, and Yu was also a little fascinated.
At this time, in an inn in the imperial capital, Yuwentu also unbuttoned his clothes. In today's battle, he knew that Yu Yi did not exert all his strength, but he was seriously injured if he did not exert his full strength in this palm. Yuwentu took out a bottle of medicine from his package, first poured it on his hand, rubbed it with both hands, and then wiped it on his chest.
The breeze blew, and Yuwentu immediately drew his wolf's head sword and pointed it at the table in the middle of the house. Looking at the black-clothed man sitting at the table, Yuwentu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" Although he didn't show it, Yuwentu was already shocked in his heart. The breeze just now he knew that it was deliberately created by the man in black in front of him, and if the man in black didn't want to, he would definitely not be able to find out.
The man in black was not in a hurry, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it slowly, and only after a long time did he speak: "My Highness guesses that you need help." ”
The person who came was the spy Zheng Bingzhou.
Yuwentu frowned. Hearing the word His Royal Highness, Yuwentu also guessed who it was, but he didn't understand why Yu Yi would send someone to find him, and said that he needed help.
Zheng Bingzhou drank all the tea in the cup before standing up, took out a bronze mirror from his arms and threw it to Yuwentu, after Yuwentu caught it casually, Zheng Bingzhou continued: "General Yuwen's martial arts are so high, don't you feel the feeling of fire in your back?" ”
When Yuwentu heard this, he felt a hot feeling in his back, and immediately walked quickly to the bronze mirror of the inn and took off all his shirts. Sure enough, there is the same palm print on the back as on the chest. Yuwentu's eyes widened when he saw this, his eyes full of disbelief. There are palm prints on the front and back of a palm, which means that the internal force of Yu Yi's palm did not stay in his body, but dissipated through his body. Even so, Yuwen Disciple was still seriously injured by internal force disorder, so what if the internal force of this palm did not pass through his body but entered his own body? Yuwen disciples were a little unbelievable.
Zheng Bingzhou seemed to have known Yuwentu's reaction for a long time, his face did not change in the slightest, and he took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and threw it to Yuwentu: "This is the bone-setting wine made by His Highness himself, and the effect is very good." It's good for you to find Xiao Er to help you take medicine. ”
Yuwentu glanced down at the medicine in his hand and said, "Can you tell King Lin, tomorrow when Qingyue Lake is outside the city, I have something to say to him." By the time Yuwentu raised his head after speaking, there was no one in the room. Only the table was filled with steaming tea, as if to tell Yuwentu that he knew.
Bai Jiangyi was really dishonest when he slew, either kicking the quilt or rolling around on the bed. But Yu Yi looked at Bai Jiangyi but still looked spoiled, and the feeling of Bai Jiangyi in his heart was also changing subtly. Yu Yi didn't know that this was the first time he had covered the quilt for the princess in front of him. There was not the slightest sound around, but after Yu Yi changed the quilt for Bai Jiangyi, he asked softly, "How is it?" ”
There is no Zheng Bingzhou, but Zheng Bingzhou's voice is as if he is on the side: "Tomorrow, Qingyue Lake." ”
Yu Yi's eyes never left Bai Jiangyi in the slightest: "It's hard work." ”
......
When Bai Jiangyi sat up with his head up, there was only himself in the room, and Bai Jiangyi called softly: "Ah Ruan." But there was no response, Bai Jiangyi was about to get out of bed when Ah Ruan pushed the door and walked in.
Seeing that Bai Jiangyi had woken up, Ah Ruan said with a smile: "Miss, are you awake?" Ah Ruan put the food plate in his hand on the table, and then came over to help his young lady over.
"What is this?" Bai Jiangyi looked at the not-so-good-looking soup on the table and asked.
When Ah Ruan heard this, he brought the soup on the plate to Bai Jiangyi: "Your Highness said that you drank too much last night and were afraid that you would have a headache this morning, so I made the soothing soup myself." ”
Only then did Bai Jiangyi remember that he had drunk too much in the garden with Shen Jiayi last night, and originally thought that Ah Ruan brought him back, but who would have thought that it was Yu Yi. Bai Jiangyi was a little flustered: "Has Your Highness said anything else?" ”
Ah Ruan thought about it and shook his head again: "No." ”
In the past, when I was in Baifu, even if I was secretly drinking in the room and was discovered, I would not be punished, but this time I was drunk in the garden with others in the Linwang Mansion, and I was afraid that I would not be angry. Thinking of this, Bai Jiangyi immediately drank the soothing soup in front of him, and then casually put on a coat and rushed out the door. It's better to admit your mistake than to let King Lin come to the door by himself.
Bai Jiangyi almost turned around the mansion, and there was no one in the Linwang Mansion. Usually, Lin Bo is in charge of the mansion alone, but now even Lin Bo can't find anyone. Bai Jiangyi walked into the garden and found Shen Jiayi, who was standing on the plum blossom stake with a stone dumbbell in each hand, and was walking with a horse.
Bai Jiangyi took two steps forward, but Shen Jiayi closed his eyes as if he didn't see himself.
"Brother Jia."
Hearing Bai Jiangyi's voice, Shen Jiayi opened his eyes, Bai Jiangyi looked up and down and continued to ask, "Brother Jiayi, who are you?" ”
Shen Jiayi took a deep breath, squatted down a little and closed his eyes again: "Take the princess to drink excessively, and walk with a weight for an hour." ”
"This is all made by His Royal Highness Linwang?" Bai Jiangyi asked knowingly.
Shen Jiayi also knew that Gu replied: "Yes." ”
Bai Jiangyi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, laughed twice and said, "Brother Jiayi, you continue." With that, he quickly fled the garden.
When he walked to the gate of the garden, Bai Jiangyi glanced back at Shen Jiayi again, and sighed in his heart that Yu Yi was ruthless, and at the same time, Yu Guang glanced at the place where Yu Yi practiced swords before. It used to be the place where Yu Yi's father practiced martial arts. Unlike the rest of the garden overgrown with plants, the place where martial arts were practiced was a sandy area, with a weapon rack on one side and a human-shaped wooden stake at the other. It's just that the humanoid stake has broken in a few places at this time, and the main body has cracks.
Bai Jiangyi had a flash of inspiration, and why not make a gift for him when Yu Yiyi was not there. When Yu Yi comes back, he may be a little discouraged when he sees the gift he gave. It's better to act than to move, Bai Jiangyi immediately ran to his bedroom: "Ah Ruan help me prepare something." ”
Ah Ruan's ability to move was undoubted, and after a while, he put all the things Bai Jiangyi needed in the garden. Bai Jiangyi also returned a dress that was convenient for work, and used a ribbon to fix his hair on the top of his head. Looking at the materials in front of him, Bai Jiangyi took out another drawing from his arms, on which was a new humanoid stake.
And Shen Jiayi had already finished his horse steps, holding a kettle in one hand and wiping sweat in the other, standing beside Bai Jiangyi, and carefully looking at the drawings in Bai Jiangyi's hand: "Yo, this is preparing to bribe." ”
The Shen family smiled a little sinisterly.
Hearing the voice beside him, Bai Jiangyi immediately put away the drawings in his hand: "What do you know, this is called doing what he likes." ”
When the Shen family heard this, they turned around and sat on the stone bench and poured a few mouthfuls of water: "Princess, but you are not afraid that Your Highness will say that you are not feminine." ”
Bai Jiangyi naturally doesn't need any femininity, but his image in Yu Yi's heart is still very important. Bai Jiangyi rolled up his sleeves: "I have inquired, His Highness will not come back for lunch when he goes out of the city to do business, I just need to make it before he comes back." ”
As soon as the Shen family heard Bai Jiangyi say reasonably, he also nodded in agreement, then stood up again and walked out: "Then princess, come on." ”
Qingyue Lake was originally a wild lake in the mountains, surrounded by jungle. The scenery is not superb, but there is a kind of quiet that makes you feel good. Later, a literati passed by here at night and found that the lake was cloudy during the day, but at night it could reflect the moon in the sky very clearly, and even more amazing was that the bottom of the lake could even be seen through the moonlight. When the literati saw this scene, they wrote on a large stone by the lake: The turbid lake can also shine on the clear moon, why can't the eyes see the heart. And this person is now the crown prince and the prince: Shen Mushu. Since then, people have called this lake Qingyue Lake. And Shen Mushu also set up a pavilion near the lake by Qingyue Lake to usher in a solitary sitting.
At this time, Yu Yi was standing alone by the lake, Mo Yuan stood quietly beside him, his eyes looking at Shen Mushu's gazebo, and the breeze blew up the hem of Yu Yi's clothes and gently lowered it.
Footsteps sounded behind him, and Yu Yi also moved his eyes from the gazebo to the lake: "It's here." ”
Yuwentu didn't answer, but silently walked to Yu Yi's side, carrying his bag and holding the wolf's head sword in his hand.
Yu Yi didn't look at him, and asked lightly, "You're not an envoy, are you?" ”
Yuwentu's expression was a little surprised, but he quickly returned to calm. Neither of them spoke anymore until a long time later, when a fish in the Moon Lake jumped out of the water, and after re-entering the water, they looked at the scattered ripples Yuwentu arched his hand to Yu Yi and said, "Yuwentu, it's just a scattered person." ”
Yu Yi did not return the salute and continued: "Do you know that forging mission documents is a capital offense. ”
Yuwentu didn't answer Yu Yi's words, but said to himself: "Your Royal Highness Linwang, have you ever heard of gentle incense? ”
Yu Yi still looked at the lake: "I haven't heard of it." ”
Yuwentu nodded and continued: "I was originally the commander of the Northern Khan army, but I accidentally learned that there is a kind of sandalwood that is prevalent in the Northern Khan army, and the name is gentle. Inhaling this incense will cause a person to fall into a sweet dream in which he will accomplish what he wants in his heart, while inhaling a large amount of this incense will cause a person to fall into euphoria until he is exhausted. ”
"What does this have to do with me?" Yu also asked.
Yuwentu only smiled when he heard this: "This thing is extremely harmful, and I began to investigate this matter before I prevented the soldiers from falling into it, and because of this, I was also killed from being a commander of the army to a scattered person." But I never stopped investigating the matter, so I learned that the gentle incense of Northern Khan came from Qingyang. ”
Yu Yi's expression didn't change until now, and he turned his head to look at Yuwentu and asked, "Do you have any evidence?" ”
Yuwentu shook his head: "It's all seen with my own eyes, and there is no evidence." ”
Yu Yi continued to ask, "Then why are you pretending to be a mission?" ”
Yuwentu smiled, bowed to Yu Yi and said, "The imperial capital is strict, as a member of the Northern Khan, I can only enter the city by pretending to be an envoy. And Yuwenshi is indeed my half-brother. ”
Yu Yi just nodded and didn't speak. And Yuwentu continued: "Since His Highness returned to the imperial capital, the gentle incense sent to the Northern Khan has been broken, so I think the gentle incense also comes from the imperial capital. And I will leave the imperial capital in a few days, and I just want His Highness to know about this matter. ”
Yu Yi looked at Yuwentu: "Brother's revenge is not avenged?" ”
Yuwen Tu laughed heartily when he heard this: "The battlefield is all about ability, and Yuwen Lion can only be said to be inferior to others when he was beheaded by you, and he can't complain about anyone." After finishing speaking, Yuwentu took out a small box from his arms and handed it to Yu Yi: "This is gentle incense." ”
Yu Yi didn't open it: "If this thing really comes from the imperial capital, I will definitely investigate it strictly." ”
Yuwentu didn't talk nonsense, thanked him and left. Please Moon Lake returned to calm. Yu Yi looked at the box that Yuwentu gave him, and he didn't know what he was thinking. At this time, a voice full of old age came from behind Yu Yi. Yu Yi turned around and saw an old man walking towards him, his pace was not in a hurry, the person who came was dressed in plain clothes, the corners of his eyebrows under his forehead were like ridges, and the bridge of his nose was on the peak. Although he has gray hair, he is full of energy.
"Your Royal Highness, how have you been lately?"
When Yu Yi saw the comer, he immediately bowed respectfully and bowed his hand: "Master Shen." ”
This person is the current prince and master, the head of the Shen family, and the father of the Shen family, Shen Ling, and Shen Xuan: Shen Mushu.
Shen Mushu straightened Yu Yi with a smile: "His Royal Highness Linwang, since you are here, why don't you go with me to the pavilion to sit and drink a cup of hot tea?" ”
Yu Yi hesitated for a while, after all, everyone in the world knew that the crown prince and master Shen Mushu came here only for meditation, so as long as he came here, the surrounding herdsmen and farmers would not come here to bother. And Yu Yi was hesitant at this time, and Shen Mushu naturally knew it, so he continued: "His Royal Highness King Lin doesn't have to worry, his heart will be quiet, and if his heart is not quiet, he will not be quiet." ”
Yu Yi smiled and said, "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”
Shen Mushu smiled and made a gesture of please: "Please." ”
