Chapter 140: Watch Your Eyes
Wei Xiangjun was woken up by the crow cry in the early morning and opened his eyes suddenly.
In Hengyang City, every winter, there will be flocks of crows entrenched on the branches [expressions] everywhere.
The old people say that the crow chirps during the day with an omen. As for whether it is good or bad, each has its own way of speaking.
Wei Xiangjun only hopes that he can spend his time safely today.
With a long sigh, Wei Xiangjun turned around and looked at the person lying on the side.
After a while, Wei Xiangjun stretched out his slender jade finger and pinched the man's hard arm.
Xu Qi climbed into the house through the window in the middle of the night, completely ignoring the palace maid who still lived next door to King Shou, and the secret guard who might be hiding on the roof, not to mention her reputation as a daughter to be married.
That's it, after waking her up last night, Xu Qi pulled her and said crooked things for a while, and by the way, he got a lot of cheapness.
Wei Xiangjun was disturbed to his dream, and he never fell asleep again. But this one slept so well that he couldn't wake up for a long time.
"Don't hurry up yet!"
Wei Xiangjun simply shouted in Xu Qi's ear.
This guy likes to jump on people's rooftops all day long, but this is a hidden mansion, if someone finds out, not only will she be ruined, but she may also be punished for a big crime of disrespect.
Xu Qi: There are too many people who hate them alive in Xifu!
Sleepy-eyed glanced at Wei Xiangjun, Xu Qi muttered: "I stayed outside all night last night, and I shivered from the cold, just look at you here comfortably, come over to warm up for a while, and you have to see the big girl's face?" ”
Wei Xiangjun picked up the soft pillow at hand, and wanted to throw it towards Xu Qi, but at this moment, a sun shined through the window and fell on his face with dark circles under his eyes.
So, it was Xu Qi and his men who guarded the dive yesterday?
After hesitating for a moment, Wei Xiangjun still kicked Xu Qi hatefully, and then he was about to jump over him and climb off the bed.
"Well, sleep with me for a while!"
One arm pressed Wei Xiangjun back.
Wei Xiangjun was forced to lie on Xu Qi's body, although he couldn't see it, he knew that this posture was very ambiguous.
In their previous lives, the two were husband and wife, and it didn't matter what they did. But now that he hasn't even booked his family, Wei Xiangjun refuses to be obedient.
Men look down on the woman who sent them to the door, just like Xu Wu didn't take Cuiyu seriously at all.
In this life, Wei Xiangjun can't allow anyone to despise him.
"Miss Wei!"
The girl's shouts suddenly sounded outside, so frightened that Wei Xiangjun's heart almost jumped out.
Xu Qi grinned and looked at Wei Xiangjun's joke.
Wei Xiangjun was in a hurry and covered his mouth.
"Miss Wei is up?"
The sound was getting closer and closer, and Wei Xiangjun's door was knocked on from outside.
Wei Xiangjun gritted his teeth and replied, "Get up quickly!" ”
"Commander Wu wants to go back to the palace, let you follow him."
"Know...... Dao. ”
Wei Xiangjun stared at the door of the house, and his hand was still pressed on Xu Qi's mouth.
"Hot water for you to put outside. Our Highness said that before Miss Wei leaves, please go to his place. ”
"Hmmm! Okay, I'll be right next then! ”
Wei Xiangjun's hand unconsciously exerted force.
Yesterday, King Shou thanked all the things he should have thanked, and called her over, but I don't know what happened.
Someone screamed a few times before Wei Xiangjun came back to his senses and quickly took his hand away.
"Murder of your own husband?"
Xu Qi glanced at Wei Xiangjun.
Wei Xiangjun took the opportunity to get up, first through the crack in the window, to confirm that there was no one outside, and then opened the door like a thief and brought back the water, and after washing up, he sat down in front of the dressing table in the house.
Xu Qi didn't sleep anymore, turned sideways, and looked at Wei Xiangjun, who was busy with work, without blinking.
Inexplicably, he remembered Mount Sutuo, the small shack where the two of them depended on each other.
At the beginning, he was doing the most tiring work, but he couldn't even take out the copper to buy a makeup table for Cuiyu. But Cuiyu never complained, and she put her hair in a bun every day, just to be neat and clean.
At that time, her face was ruined, and she probably didn't dare to look in the mirror.
Xu Qi didn't care about Cuiyu's appearance, what he cared about was that Cuiyu had never asked anything from him, allowing him to regain his long-lost dignity.
Wei Xiangjun's little hands flew up and down, and after a while, he combed a neat short bun.
This gesture is very similar to the previous life.
Xu Qi was a little stunned, and instantly felt that he had returned to the past, and couldn't help but get up and walk over.
Wei Xiangjun was sticking a hairpin into her bun, and she found that someone in the bronze mirror was looking at her.
"I'll help you!"
Xu Qi seemed to be interested, and regardless of whether people were happy or not, he took the phoenix jade hairpin in Wei Xiangjun's hand.
But in a moment, Wei Xiangjun slapped away the stupid hand, "Dodge!" ”
Xu Qi was also deflated, he couldn't understand the things of the woman's house.
Wei Xiangjun divided five by two, and when he was even dressed up, Xu Qi had already lay back on the bed, touching his chin that had just come out of the stubble, "When I turned around, King Shou asked you about me, and said that I planned to enter your Xifu." ”
"What do you mean?"
Wei Xiangjun looked over.
"Do as I say, and you can't be wrong."
Xu Qi didn't really want to explain, and he couldn't explain it.
Shouwang has a cowardly personality, always looks like he is easy to talk to, and he can't see any edge.
It's no wonder that no one in the Liang court thinks he can succeed.
Xu Qi, who had a deep conversation with him, saw that King Shou was hiding under his harmless face...... Ambition, or rather delusion.
Last night, Xu Qi reminded a few words on the side.
At this time, King Shou first saved his life, and then returned to the lord to be a filial son, which was beneficial to him and harmless.
In fact, the reason is also simple.
When the old lord of Liang came to the throne, he stepped on the corpses of his siblings all the way, and even the one who was suspected of killing his father. The one who was able to be surrounded by the evil wolves of the neighboring countries gradually restored the vitality of the Liang Kingdom, and it was even more irreversible.
Such a person may not like a son who can be called wind and rain in the court and never hides his covetousness for the throne.
The true winner always wants to be in control, and he is afraid of being controlled.
King Shou is not stupid, and seems to understand what Xu Qi means.
But later, he knocked on the side in turn, trying to persuade Xu Qi to return to Liangguo.
Liang Guo's court, Xu Qi has long been tired of it. The reason why he gave King Shou an idea was just because he was careful.
In this life, the position of the lord of the Liang State cannot be cheaply pitted by the Ping King of the Xu family.
As for returning to the Liang Kingdom, it is absolutely impossible.
"You know King Shou very well?"
Wei Xiangjun suddenly asked.
Xu Qi paused for a moment and said, "It's also a coincidence, I have a relationship with that person in Liang Kingdom." ”
Wei Xiangjun is too smart, he is easy to attract suspicion when he dodges.
Sure enough, Wei Xiangjun turned his head and glanced at Xu Qi.
Xu Qi deliberately asked, "What?" ”
Wei Xiangjun smiled, "You know a lot of people." ”
She thought that Xu Qi would definitely prevaricate in the past, after all, if this person's identity was found out, he would definitely be killed.
Xu Qiting can pretend. If Wei Xiangjun didn't know the details, he would definitely not notice anything unusual.
Wei Xiangjun didn't ask much, screwed on the medicine box, and planned to go out.
Before she could open the door, Xu Qi suddenly said again: "Actually, if it's a debt, I'm willing." In the future, our children will follow your surname Wei. ”
Wei Xiangjun pretended not to hear, and walked outside.
In the main hall of Fengyi Palace, Wei Xiangjun coaxed Princess Taiyang to sleep, sitting by the window, holding a medical book in his hand, but he couldn't read half a word, and he couldn't help but think about it again in his mind, and King Shou asked her about Xu Qishi's expression.
Xu Qi didn't guess wrong, King Shou asked about the matter.
Well, she has already begun to suspect that there is some secret between Xu Qi and King Shou that cannot be trusted by outsiders.
The sound of drums sounded, and it should be the official start of the palace banquet.
According to the past practice, the longevity festival should be held at three o'clock in the Zhaohua Hall of the previous dynasty.
This time it was more than an hour late, and it was clear that something had happened.
Princess Taiyang seemed to be startled, and her small body moved.
Wei Xiangjun hurriedly walked to the side of the bed and patted the child gently.
"Miss Wei, Manager Zou is back!"
A palace maid ran in to report the news.
Wei Xiangjun stood up and watched Zou Rang enter the main hall.
Wiping his sweat, Zou Rang grinned and said, "Niangniang is not worried about the princess, let me come over and take a look." ”
Princess Taiyang slept soundly, Wei Xiangjun simply put down the curtain and led Zou Rang to stand by the window, "Is my father okay?" ”
It's not that she's selfish, she doesn't care if others live or die. is really those powerful people, and her success or failure has nothing to do with her. But if Wei Dongheng has three longs and two shorts, even if Wei Xiangjun doesn't have to rely on Xifu, Mrs. Xiao will definitely fall in the sky.
"I didn't see it!"
Zou Rang blinked, and approached Wei Xiangjun with his sleeve in his hand, "This time it's really interesting!" ”
"What's an interesting method, King Shou has arrived?"
Zou Rang nodded vigorously, "It's also bad luck to say, in the morning, the people of the Liang Kingdom were about to break into the palace wearing linen and filial piety, but they were blocked by the palace guards. That's it, the lord and the mother arrived at the Zhaohua Palace, and the people of Qi instigated the envoys of various countries to refuse to salute, forcing the lord to make a decree and let the people of Liang enter the palace. ”
Wei Xiangjun stared at Zou Rang, even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he could feel how tense the atmosphere in Zhaohua Hall would be at that moment.
"Later, the lord really let the Liang people come in, and a group of people knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, one is to ask the lord to return the body of King Shou, and the other is to let us hand over the murderer."
When Zou Rang said this, he smacked his mouth, "The Lord returned to him, there is no corpse to return, and Jibei is not a murderer." The envoys of Qi State are fanning the flames on the side, and when it comes to the back, they are actually violent, and we must give an explanation, otherwise they will ask the envoys to bring their own words back, and the countries will discuss together to seek justice for King Shou, who died unexpectedly. ”
"Auntie......"
Princess Taiyang behind the curtain suddenly screamed.
Wei Xiangjun hurriedly went over, coaxed the princess to continue sleeping, and then came back, "What about the back?" ”
"But that's yet to come. General Xu led his troops to the palace and surrounded those envoys. ”
The more Zou Rang spoke, the more excited he became, "The Lord then announced that General Yue Shao had been named the general of the Protector Country, and now he led the Yue family army to garrison Wusheng Pass. If anyone wants to discuss the law, first conquer Wusheng Pass! Then, King Shou came out, and all the envoys present were dumbfounded. The faces of those who were dressed in linen and filial piety were even more ugly, and some of them were scared to pee at that time. ”
Wei Xiangjun couldn't help laughing, he did that scene yesterday, and this is not the result he was waiting for.
Zou Rang stretched out his head to look at the side of the bed, "Since the princess is sleeping well, I will give the mother a life." ”
Wei Xiangjun said: "You really didn't see my father? ”
King Shou pointed out that it was the general of Liang who wanted to put him to death, and asked the lord to arrest him on the spot. The people of Qi were disgraced and were about to leave. The lord didn't give them face anymore, and ordered them to leave Hengyang immediately, and they were personally escorted by General Xu. There's really nothing to do with Lord Wei in the back. ”
Wei Xiangjun's heart finally fell into his stomach.
The lord gave King Shou a lot of courtesy this time, invited him to sit down, and personally introduced the queen mother and the lord of Fuhui, and King Shou said a lot of words of gratitude. He had to meet us at a loss, and if he changed places, he was afraid that he would die in a foreign land. ”
Zou Rang couldn't help but sigh again.
