Chapter 19 Retreat as Advance
"She didn't say a word, she didn't say a word." Su Lin was extremely disappointed, and he was surprised and puzzled, he looked at Yiyu with puzzled eyes, but Yiyu closed his eyes as if nothing happened, "I asked Xuanqing for you before, and he said, 'The county lord is a model in the boudoir, and his reputation is thousands of miles. But now look, this model is indeed a bit overdone, and it does not come out of it; said that she was not bright-minded, but she had never met you, so she recognized you as the prince and saluted you, the key is that no one reported your prince's name at that time. ”
Yiyu still closed his eyes and didn't talk, and it was really meaningless for Su Lin, a clear fool, to have doubts. His aura, his dress, the guards around him, as long as he is a normal person, can know who he is.
"After two days, I found that they had several large truckloads of food pulled behind the convoy, which should be used for food on the way. I also inquired that they also brought their cooks, but they were useless, they went directly to the restaurant wherever they went, and they didn't dare to think about how much money they had to spend on this journey. Su Lin was deeply immersed in it, and he couldn't understand it, "They are so rich in the northern frontier, so rich that they can enjoy together regardless of dignity and inferiority." ”
"Compared to your little medical officer, who takes a few broken straws from time to time and puts me in charge of a few hundred gold, their behavior is normal."
"I, I." Su Lin saw that Yiyu was still closing his eyes, and he didn't want him to care about those few mundane things, "Say them, why are you still pulling me." Besides, I don't take those for myself. ”
"In the past six months, you have deceived me of at least 1,000 gold in the East Palace, I don't care, you really treat me as your big wrong, how many ladies you have raised outside, or have you bought a few houses, don't swagger and cause trouble, and suffer from suffering. I won't be able to protect you then. ”
"Heaven and earth conscience, I didn't do anything, I gave it to Xuanqing's family, bought a suitable house for his family, and bought medicine for his mother."
"You take my money to do things, and you borrow flowers to offer Buddha, but you are wonderful."
"No way, my grandfather is a doctor, although I am still the only seedling in the family, but this is not as good as that, he treats me as an apprentice, and he is very strict on weekdays, you also know, I have no money in my hands. But Xuanqing's piece of wood is difficult at home, not to mention, you also know how rigorous the mouth of the dead man is, the life history in the dead man pavilion is impenetrable, he recognized me, he didn't say a word more, it was completely different from before, but I knew that he definitely had something, otherwise how could he enter the dead man pavilion, so I bothered to inquire and track for many years, and finally knew that he was cast this fetus, and his life was ruthless, and his father and mother gave birth to one a year, and eight in a row. Su Lin drew a figure with his hand, which was indeed a little amazing, and shook his head and said, "Eight, after his father's death, his family has all relied on him, in recent years, because of his merits, his family has finally eaten, except for the two younger brothers who have worked, the others can also go to private school, but his mother is infected with a bad disease, I can't care, but I don't have money, and I don't dare to ask for it from the family, so I can only ask you from the palace, and then the applause is smart will come, he knows that I am your person, he is half-open and half-closed. If you expose or punish me, it's a big deal that I'll return to the Yuqing realm sooner. ”
"When did you become my person, earlier you ran to my East Palace every time you got off the Guozijian class, and when you were beaten in the Tai Hospital, you found out that your grandfather chased after me with a ring ruler until he didn't dare to enter the East Palace; Now that your grandfather is old, he can't beat you, you lack money and run to my East Palace, and if you have something to do, run to my East Palace. ”
Xuan Qing heard it clearly, but he didn't say anything, he fell into the fisherman's house, he was the eldest in the family, and he had four younger brothers and three younger sisters, and his father died in a water disaster when he was eight years old, and the youngest sister was still in his mother's womb.
The family was forced to wander around for their livelihood, and the youngest sister starved to death because of her mother's hunger and lack of milk and food.
When he was nine years old, in order for his family not to go hungry, for the family to have clothes and cover, he sold himself into the army and dead soldiers in the city, he did not have the spare time to pay attention to the fact that he was carrying memories into the mortal world, and he did not have the slightest advantage of half an immortal, because the appropriate hunger and responsibility forced him to be down-to-earth, to work hard, to support the younger brothers and sisters behind him, they relied on him, they only had him.
He climbed up step by step, and when he found out that they were also pampered princes and princes who also came out of Yuqing Realm, he did not complain or be unwilling, because he was worthy of this life, at least he used his own sweat and the blood of the gun and sword sharpening to feed the family cleanly, and that kind of warmth could not be experienced by others.
It's just that that kind of long situation made him accustomed to being silent, and made him rigorous and meticulous in handling things.
"In this way, it is not easy for him to support a group of younger brothers and sisters, and send them to school, and achievements and hardships go hand in hand." Yiyu sat upright, then opened his eyes, lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, "This little distance, I walked for two days." ”
"I haven't heard a word from her in two days."
"Why do you always mention that she doesn't speak, all the way, you have been talking about this over and over again, do you want to hear what she says?"
"Me." Su Lin took a long breath, "I'm not for you yet, what will you do in the future, she wants to be the crown princess, so boring, I won't suffocate you to death." ”
"It's exactly what I want, I like to be quiet." Yiyu continued to look outside, and suddenly his face sank, "It's not good, Xiangguo is also here." ”
"Why is this old guy here too!" Su Lin was shocked, poked his head out to look, and muttered in his mouth, "Every time I meet this old guy, it's not good, although his face is gentle, but I don't know where he learned so many rules, the history books and classics talk about a set of sets of people who don't give others a way to live, standing next to him looks like an idiot." ”
They finally approached the city gates.
Xiangguo and his wife waited here early in the morning.
The people brought out by Yi Yu saw this from afar, and instinctively accelerated their speed and stepped forward, leading the chariots and horses in the north to follow.
Xiangguo's face was gloomy, and he was there, and there was silence all around.
Because the messengers and carrier pigeons from the north of Xinjiang were sent to his prime minister's house one after another, if he didn't come, his daughter's rare body would be worried about becoming ill; is also because, although Xiao Chu is not his daughter-in-law, he also calls his daughter-in-law his mother-in-law, and his daughter-in-law is not only the head of the house, but also has the duty of educating people, not to mention that others are roughly calculated to be the heirs of his country, but he can do things so absurdly that he is criticized by the people.
When he walked to Xiangguo, Yiyu got out of the car first, he made a family salute to Xiangguo and his wife, and wanted to explain the reason, but he saw Xiangguo's eyes pass over the carriage parked next to Xiao Chuhe, he immediately swallowed the words in his stomach and stood quietly on one side.
When she got out of the carriage, she glanced lightly, Mrs. Xiangguo was graceful and luxurious, but Xiangguo was really an elegant person, his eyes were sharp, but his expression was extremely gloomy at this time, and he estimated that there was a lot of anger in his heart.
I was a little worried about Xiao Chu in my heart.
She walked up to Mrs. Xiangguo with small steps, and in a voice as soft as a breeze, she called, "Grandmother." ”
Then, he turned to Xiangguo and saluted slightly, "Grandfather." ”
Mrs. Xiangguo suddenly burst into tears and hugged her into her arms, "My son, it can be regarded as coming, this long journey has been bumpy and suffering, which really worries your grandmother, and makes my grandmother and I pray every day and still can't sleep." ”
"Meet my grandfather and grandmother." Xiao Chu saluted, and also saw that Xiangguo's face was full of displeasure, and he was ready to be scolded in his heart, and he thought about such a Sven literati, whether they could understand what they scolded, but he knew that it was not his father.
As a result, to Xiao Chu's surprise, she actually spoke up again.
"With my brother taking care of me all the way, the child has never suffered." She let go of Mrs. Xiangguo's arm, reached out and gently wiped away the tears on Mrs. Xiangguo's face, and smiled as lightly as a flower, "Cousin Prince, the day before yesterday was already to greet us, his carriage is brighter, the wheels are bigger and more stable, and the journey is faster, but Mother and Master have taught that men and women should not be in the same room in private, and they definitely dare not ride in the same carriage with the prince's cousin in private, so as not to mistake the prince's cousin's name, so the trip is still late." ”
"My son, at such a young age, he can have such a delicate mind, and he also takes care of your prince brother." Mrs. Xiangguo was originally overjoyed to see her like this, and she didn't want to think about it, so she was so moved that she liked it so much that she couldn't wait to give her all the love that she missed her mother all the year round.
Even the onlookers were amazed, "The county lord of Northern Xinjiang is acting decently." ”
"This appearance is really better than that of the fairy family."
"The county lord of Northern Xinjiang, that is, the daughter of Xiangguo, this appearance is beyond the reach of ordinary people."
"Xiangguo's style and elegance, his grandson is beyond the reach of others."
"I heard that I am going to enter the East Palace."
"With the crown prince, they are a pair made in heaven."
There are more and more people gathered, some of them are lively, some are envious, and some are sincerely admired and admired, both horizontally and vertically are good.
Xiangguo heard it with his ears, he slowed down his expression, showed a kind look, and nodded slightly to Xiao Chu's salute in reply, which made Xiao Chu have the illusion of being recognized for the first time.
Su Lin's eyes on the side were bigger than a bull's eye, and he didn't admit that she didn't speak, but when he spoke, there was something in his words, and he couldn't help but whisper to Yiyu, "How can she understand it like this, we brought horses, if the county lord she takes the prince's carriage, we are laymen on horseback and do not enter the car." ”
"That's why you didn't handle things well, why didn't you explain to the county lord that you wanted you to go, and what was the use." Xiangguo's voice was not loud, and he scolded Su Lin on his face, but he was actually reprimanding Yiyu.
She knew that she had fallen into the eyes of Xiang Guo, or with a little thoughts of missing her mother, Xiang Guo looked at her with soft and kind eyes.
She bowed slightly to Su Lin, and then turned to Xiangguo, "What the medical officer said is that we didn't dare to ask, when we went out in the past, my father told me that entering the Central Plains is no better than the palace of the Northern Xinjiang, and we must abide by the duties of a courtier, and we must not cross the boundary of respect and inferiority." Therefore, seeing that the prince's cousin didn't dare to say much for a while, he didn't blame the prince's cousin, he had a noble status, and it was a great honor to be able to condescend to greet him. ”
Originally, her salute made Su Lin unexpectedly retreat straight behind Yiyu, but her words made Su Lin even more angry, but she couldn't refute it, because she really didn't say a word or say a word all along.
"How dare you say it now?" Yiyu really couldn't help it, he couldn't get a good or small trip after a hard trip, but he still caused a commotion, and scolded unceremoniously in his heart: The little girl is really difficult to raise.
"The prince's cousin and the courtiers are the difference between the monarch and the minister, and the Xiangguo and the courtiers are blood relatives who are thicker than water, so naturally if you say the wrong thing, it is a family matter, not a matter of the monarch and the minister." She turned to Yiyu and saluted, "The courtiers and brothers have always been at the border of the northern frontier, and the world is insufficient, please don't be surprised." ”
"Alright, alright." Mrs. Xiangguo held her body and said to Yiyu, "Don't scare your sister, she is still a few hours younger than you, this way is pitiful enough, if it is not for you, why do you have to travel a long distance, you have to miss your sister in the future, and you will get close to each other in the future." ”
The people gathered more and more, and it was not advisable to stay outside the city gates for a long time.
She was personally taken into the carriage by Mrs. Xiangguo and got up to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Dyed with a bit of curiosity, she lifted the curtain lightly, and saw Yiyu's hand behind her back, tightly twisting her fist, she was happy in her heart, you are the second prince Yu Tianyi, even if you are reincarnated as the prince Yiyu, the two lives add up to the deity, how can you wait until the day of marriage.
swept the corners of his eyes, but saw that Xiao Chu, who was following the car, was very gloating, so he didn't hide his smile, and the corners of his mouth were about to crack to the root of his ears.
It is not difficult to guess what he is happy about, first, she let the prince make a fool of himself in front of Xiangguo to cover up his wrong, blood kinship can be reflected, and he was scolded all the way for not being versatile; Second, this Xiangguo was really Sven, and he didn't scold him a word.
It's just that Yiyu was inexplicable, and reacted, she wanted to protect her brother, so why bother to take him out to cushion her back.
He hated the carriage at this time, so he stepped on his horse and galloped towards the imperial city.
Su Lin and Xuan Qing hurriedly caught up with the guards across their horses.
"Don't be angry, the prince." Su Lin chased into the imperial city, leaving the eyes of the people, and immediately persuaded, "Even if he gets married one day, from the three palaces and six courtyards, you will marry a beautiful girl, how can you still worry about not being angry, then she will be so angry that she will grit her teeth." ”
"She did it on purpose." Yiyu abandoned his horse and ran towards the East Palace.
"You're so angry!" Su Lin continued to catch up, "Wait for me, in my opinion, the daughter of Taifu is pure and deferential, and she has already made a secret promise to you, much simpler than the county lord of Northern Xinjiang." ”
"The county lord of Northern Xinjiang, this woman is quite thoughtful, showing weakness and retreating, and dares to set up tricks for me." Yiyu kicked open the door of the East Palace and walked in, so frightened that the palace maids and eunuchs inside immediately knelt and knocked on the ground, so they roared angrily, "What are you doing kneeling, go out!" ”
"Quick, quick, get out." Su Lin hurriedly waved his hand and asked the palace maid and eunuch inside to go out to avoid mildew, "Prince, you weren't so angry before, because a woman is not worth it, not worth it, think about Naiyi, how good Naiyi is." ”
"Shut up!" Yiyu was even more panicked by his persuasion by Su Lin.
When he was in Yuqingjing, he wanted to help the eventful Fengsha Shaoyang, but it turned out that he was behind the unbearable rumors; Now there is a county lord of Northern Xinjiang, who will embarrass him in public as soon as he comes, and is stepping on his shoulders to show off her decency.
It's hard to happen, he was born to fight with women, as long as there is a woman who is implicated, he will suffer.
