Chapter 39: The Enemy
In the carriage, Song Wan picked up the handkerchief left behind from the corner, only to see that the word Tang was obviously embroidered on it.... Seeing this, her eyes sank, although she didn't take it to heart just now, as long as she thought that the two of them had been together recently, she couldn't convince herself that she really didn't mind, and this handkerchief was obviously a demonstration move, she really couldn't swallow this breath, "Hmph, Xiao Beichen, when you return to the mansion, you'd better explain it to me, otherwise you will wait for me!" ”
"Miss Song"
"Meng Yu, where is your master?" When she returned to Xiao Mansion and didn't see Xiao Beichen, Song Wan couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"Uh.... The Lord has been busy with official business recently, no, he just hurriedly went out to deal with official business. ”
"Is it" Seeing his empty expression, Song Wan already understood seven or eight points in her heart, and knew that most of the questions in his mouth could not be asked, so she could only take the lead in stepping into the mansion and choose to wait and see the changes first....
"Song Wan, admire! I didn't expect you to come back alive! ”
Seeing that Shangguan Shenxue was still in the mansion, Song Wan said angrily: "Why are you still here?" ”
"Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm still here to disappoint you, but" Shangguan Shenxue leaned close to her ear, held her like a sister and whispered: "Fortunately, I'm still here, help you keep an eye on that Yao Xuetang, otherwise when you come back, I'm afraid your four princes won't even have scum left, I can tell you, this woman is a top-level and difficult character, you have to be careful, if you lose and cry, I will laugh at you fiercely" After that, looking at Song Wan's expression, Shangguan Shenxue said firmly again: "Well, it will definitely be." ”
"Thank you so much for the reminder! So, aren't you going to Yangzhou, why are you still here? ”
"How can I know so much about this little minion, I won't leave if I don't say anything, or wait for the fourth prince to come back, you go and ask him?"
Hearing this, Song Wan frowned lightly, what the hell is this Xiao Beichen doing.....
It was night, she sat in the hall, originally wanted to wait for Xiao Beichen to come back, she asked him, who knew that as soon as she sat down, she didn't see him until late at night. Seeing this, she had no choice but to go back to the wing room first and wait for tomorrow to take a look. But the results on the second, third, and fourth days were all like this, and at this moment Song Wan understood that he was deliberately avoiding her....
Thinking of this, her heart was cold, and she just wanted to return to the wing room from the hall again, but was stopped by Zhan Lao on the way, "Miss Song"
"Old Zhan?" Seeing that he looked like he had been waiting for a long time, Song Wan was surprised: "Does Zhan Lao have something to say to me?" ”
"Exactly! Since Miss Song is a smart person, then I won't beat around the bush, I wonder if the girl can leave Xiaofu? ”
"This is what the fourth prince asked you to pass on to me?" Song Wan said coldly when she heard this.
"Fei Ye" Zhan Lao walked slowly in front of her from behind the pillar, and then continued to persuade bitterly: "I believe that this time Miss Song can also see what caused this innocent prison disaster. The royal family must not have a weakness, this is a fatal weakness, even if the girl is resourceful, but the secret arrow is difficult to prevent, how can you guarantee that the next time will be safe? The bystanders are clear, but the concern is chaotic, and your importance to the Lord just shows that you are dangerous to the Lord, which is a big taboo! That's why I'm here to fight and beg the girl to leave for the time being, maybe when the dust settles on this big battle.... Miss Song, if you are really a person who is in love with each other, how can you be in the morning and twilight, do you say yes? ”
"Heh, so that's the real reason why he's avoided me for the past few days?"
Hearing this, Zhan Lao didn't reply, Song Wan already knew it when she saw this, "It's bothering Zhan Lao to wait here late at night for a long time, please tell the fourth prince, although I, Song Wan, am not a well-informed lady, but there is still courtesy, righteousness and shame, and I will definitely not make a fool of myself in someone else's house, please rest assured" After saying that, she simply turned around and left without looking back, and soon disappeared outside the gate.
..........
"Song Wan, what are you doing here?"
I walked out in a hurry, thinking about finding an inn and making another plan, but who would have thought that this inn in the capital would be so popular, and every one of them was full! Is this really even God's intention to oppose her?
"What about you, squatting stupid? Look at you like this, why do you look like that poor homeless worm? ”
"You are the worm" Song Wan looked at Pei Ze, who was also squatting down, angrily, and said weakly: "Why do you always meet you when I am at my worst, you are my nemesis, right?" ”
"According to what you say, I'm your lucky star, right, I help you every time you are in trouble, you ungrateful little woman."
"Yes, yes, yes, it's a little woman, I have the heart of a villain, and I have spent the belly of a gentleman! In this case, Master Pei, you are a good person to the end, can you help me conjure up a side room? The inns here are full, I have nowhere to go" Unconsciously, Song Wan said softly to her in the same tone that she had done to her best friend in her previous life. In the past, as long as he made this move on the battlefield, Pei Ze would definitely follow her up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, although he also whispered later, saying that he was deceived by her, but every time he would repeat the same mistakes, until she was framed by Ji Qinian and imprisoned....
This guy was just spoiling him? Pei Ze couldn't help but be surprised, she couldn't be stimulated and crazy, right? Although I seem to be quite comfortable with her trick, but..."Song Wan, you, sick?" ”
"You're sick, don't help" After that, Song Wan was so arrogant that she just wanted to turn her head and leave, but was stopped by Pei Ze, "Okay, I'll be kidding you, the little woman has a big temper" Pei Ze shook his head helplessly, and said, "Come with me." ”
"Pei Ze, will you take me to your mansion, a lonely man and a widow, do you want my reputation anymore?" Seeing them walking farther and farther away from the official road, Song Wan couldn't help but quip.
"Do you still care about fame? When you lived in Xiaofu, did you care about what others said about you? ”
After a while, seeing that no one answered, Pei Ze turned his head suspiciously, "What's the matter, I touched your sadness?" So you're wandering the streets today, and you've really been swept away? ”
"Pei Ze, do you know how to speak human words? What was swept away, I chose it myself, and what I told you was not logical, I don't want to talk to you, please turn around and lead the way! ”
"Tut-tut, don't forget, you are a help-seeker, and you won't be polite to your benefactor?"
"No, it won't."
Knowing that with this guy's sharp teeth, it is really a dog's mouth that can't spit out ivory, Pei Ze shook his head helplessly again, there is really nothing to do with her.....
"What is this?"
"Where I live, come in."
Looking at the house in front of me, which can be called a disaster, the weeds are overgrown everywhere, and there is not even a door plaque on the dilapidated courtyard.... If he hadn't walked in on his own, she would have thought he was deliberately playing tricks on her.
"Pei Ze, has the court detained you?" Song Wan followed him into the house, which was not a mansion at all, and looked at the furnishings inside that were also so simple that you could see the end at a glance, and there were not even servants here, and the phenomenon of no one was really like that kind of ascetic life.
"Pei Ze, I didn't know that you were so poor, wouldn't it be good for me to come here to disturb?"
Hearing this, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, although he knew that this house was indeed not as magnificent as the mansions of many officials, but how could it come out of her mouth that it felt like a refuge for beggars on the street? He was speechless! "Song Wan, the house is just a resting place, why is it so good-looking? Besides, I don't come back very often when I'm away all year round, so it's really dispensable to me. You, you put away that sympathetic look for me, who can you show compassion to! ”
"Oh" She just couldn't react for a while, what a murder! I really can't imagine that his house is so "cold", no wonder he often went alone in his previous life, and never invited people to his house, now it seems that he is too troublesome, if you explain it one by one with the people, um... With his character, it is estimated that he is tired enough.
"There's a wing room over there, you can go there."
"Okay." When she passed through the hall, Song Wan saw that the armor belonging to the battlefield was placed on the main seat, and she couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "You want to go to the battlefield?" ”
"Huh?" Seeing that her gaze stayed on the armor in the hall, Pei Ze realized that "You said this, right, I heard that there are enemies in the Western Desert who are trying to cross the border to invade the Central Plains recently, and someone in the court has already played it to the emperor this morning, and I believe that there will be a will in the next few days." Moreover, King Qi has fought with that enemy many times, and this time there is a high probability that he will still send him to expel him in person, and as a deputy general, I will naturally follow him at that time, so I will take it out in case of emergency. ”
Enemies? Song Wan lowered her head and pondered for a while, and suddenly thought that the previous life was also at this time, the enemy was coming, she was ordered to go to the battlefield with Pei Ze, but Ji Qinian did not follow.... Originally, this battle was not difficult to fight, they were some unorganized rogues, and they should soon be able to defeat them, who would have thought that the battle of half a month would drag on for a full three months, among which they were even tricked by the enemy, and at the last moment they learned that the biggest leader of the original gang of rogues had mixed into them, although they won with difficulty in the end, but unfortunately they were escaped by the person who got the news in advance, and never found any trace of that person until the class returned to the court....
I wonder if this time, without her participation in this war, will their outcome change? "Pei Ze, the danger of the enemy can be big or small, remember not to underestimate the enemy easily, when it is critical, you can look at the people around you first."
"What do you mean?"
"It's literal" After saying that, Song Wan left first, after all, no matter how much she thought about their friendship in her heart, but now he is always the person next to King Qi, and she has a bitter enmity with King Qi, so she can only point to it. However, judging from the experience of the previous life, even without her unpredictable prophet, this guy is still very rough and thick-skinned, and the so-called ignorant are blessed, so there is no need to worry too much about him....
