She said humblely, but Wei Ji somehow felt a faint chill in her heart.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 42: Up the Mountain

There was silence in the room.

Wei Ji frowned and didn't speak for a while.

Ling Yuan's eyes were red, and he sobbed quietly: "The concubine knows that Xiao Langjun will not be gullible, the concubine has entered the Huan family since she was a child, Mrs. Tai is happy, and occasionally recruits the concubine to play the pipa, if there is really any confidential matter, she will not let the concubine know about such an ordinary maid, and after following Langjun, she has never had contact with outsiders." That night, the concubine deceived Xiao Langjun with nonsense, and she was very uneasy in her heart, and now she knows that she is wrong. ”

Talking and covering his face and crying, it's so pitiful.

If Wei Ji asked anything again, it would be harsh, she sighed lightly and said: "Forget it, this matter has been revealed, there is no need to mention it in the future, you should take good care of your body." ”

Walking to the door, she turned around again, looked at Ling Yuan's crying face and said, "That day, Jiang Xia listened to the pipa music you played outside the courtyard, the timbre is accurate, and the skills are superb, which is enough to be called a national player." ”

Ling Yuan was slightly stunned, raised his teary eyes, and looked at Wei Ji in puzzlement.

"The voice is lyrical, often the musician does not know it, the expansive person is heroic, the self-pitying person is complaining, the music you play is tactful and winding, and you like to make skills in the place where the sound turns, which shows that the mind is extremely delicate, but there is a sense of low welcome."

Ling Yuan's body stiffened, and his fingers involuntarily grabbed on the futon, "That's how the concubine taught the pipa since she was a child. ”

Wei Ji shook her head and said: "You still don't understand, I know that you are from a humble background, no matter how beautiful and talented you are, many things can't help it." In any case, it's not wrong to plan for yourself, but everything has a degree, if you are careful everywhere, everything is considered a gain or loss, to the detriment of others and benefit yourself, others are not fools, so how can people treat you with sincerity"

Ling Yuan's face became more and more ugly, and tears kept falling, "Xiao Langjun is still blaming me"

Wei Ji said: "I don't blame you, I just pity you." If you are sincere to my second brother, you should think about him in your actions, so that you can exchange hearts for hearts and get along for a long time. ”

Ling Yuan hung his head, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and his body trembled like chaff and said: "Xiao Langjun said that the concubine is really embarrassed. ”

Wei Ji waited for a moment, and when she saw that she said that, she just sobbed and didn't stop sobbing, and didn't say anything else, pushed the door and left.

Ling Yuan took a few deep breaths, her face was white and red, her heart was still beating fast, just now I heard Wei Ji's words to look at people with music, as if every word pierced her body, making her whole heart twist up, she wanted to roar uncomfortably, and gritted her teeth before she endured it.

You know what

You are a little Langjun who was born in a scholar family, and you know what it means to be happy.

Ling Yuan's chest was like a strong wine poured on the fire, which made her extremely anxious. I want to see so many Shi girls in the Huan family, she has also quietly compared in private, whether it is appearance or talent, she thinks that she is not inferior to those girls, the only difference is in this body, but she is still in the Huan family, one of the four surnames, and has seen too much wealth and power. How could she be willing to be a slave and a slave all her life?

Ling Yuan gasped, reached out and stroked his stomach, and his eyes suddenly became ruthless.

She knew a big secret, and with this secret, if she could give birth to a child smoothly, she would be able to completely control the wealth of the rest of her life. It was Wei Xiaolangjun who stood by and watched, and it was Huang Zhiyin who was ruthless......

Even that hope was dashed.

Thinking of this, the hatred in Ling Yuan's heart became stronger and stronger, and it was not until the footsteps of the maid outside the door that her face gradually recovered, and she was still pale and weak.

The maid came in with a decoction, fed Ling Yuan to drink, and finally took out a piece of soft silk candy.

Ling Yuan smiled softly at her, put the sugar in his mouth and said, "I just remembered that I had a relative in Yuzhang who opened a shop in the east of the city, so it's good for you to find someone to send me something."

The maidservant was embarrassed: "The Huang lady's housekeeper is very strict, and she should be let know about this matter first." ”

Ling Yuan took the handmaiden's hand, took out a purse from under the pillow, opened it and let her see clearly, it was a pair of beautifully embroidered handkerchiefs, "It's just that you know the good of your relatives when you're sick, and you also know that the Huang family is not compatible with me, if you let her know, she will definitely embarrass me, it's just a handkerchief, you see if there is a problem, if you help me do this, the pearl on the first layer will belong to you." ”

Ling Yuan gestured on the table. The maidservant girl was thrilled, knowing that there was a thumb-sized southern pearl there, round and shiny, which was a rare treasure. The maid turned the handpiece over and over again, and indeed found no problem, put away the purse, and said: "It's not difficult, I recognize a maid who just entered the house a few days ago, who is a native of Yuzhang, and she has kept it properly." ”

Ling Yuan asked her to bring back the words of her relatives, and the maid saw that she had lost a lot of weight, and she really felt pity for her, and for the sake of that pearl, she agreed very happily.

Wei Ji left Ling Yuan's house, exhaled lightly, walked outside, came to the courtyard, and saw Xiao Yunzi standing under the tree, she was graceful, quiet and elegant, bowed slightly, and approached Wei Ji, "Concubine heard that Xiao Langjun is good at calligraphy, there is a pen here, and I want to give it to Xiao Langjun." ”

As she spoke, she reached out and handed a slender box forward.

Wei Ji didn't answer, and said: "Why do you need to be so polite, I heard that you are from a family of poetry and books, so you should keep the pen and ink for your own use." ”

Xiao Yunzi put his hands on the box and said: "Xiao Langjun doesn't know, I love to read, but I don't like to learn words, I was in a hurry to leave home, and I didn't bring out much. ”

Hui Niang took it.

Wei Ji casually asked her if she was used to living in this new mansion and something like that.

Xiao Yunzi has gotten used to it these days, and his life is comfortable. Then he said: "The time I went to Luofu Mountain a year ago, it was Xiao Langjun who chose me, but I didn't know how to go back, I had an emergency that night, my face was red and swollen, and I couldn't serve Lang Jun and Xiao Lang Jun, I have been reluctant to go, I met Xiao Langjun today, and I sent a pen to express my heart, fortunately Xiao Langjun did not dislike it." ”

When Wei Ji heard this, her footsteps paused, "red and swollen"

Xiao Yunzi smiled slightly: "It's strange to say, even the doctor can't say the reason for this emergency, only that he may have touched some poisonous weeds and insect flowers." ”

Wei Ji nodded, not asking anything more. Xiao Yunzi accompanied her to the gate of the courtyard and said goodbye politely.

Wei Ji returned to her room, sat down and rubbed her temples first.

Hui Niang opened the box and looked at the pen inside, which was a good horn polished pen body, and the brush head was neat and soft, and the high-grade materials were also excellent. She put it away, looked at Wei Ji's sad look, and said, "Xiao Langjun is still bothered by Ling Yuan."

Wei Ji said: "Her body is like this now, whether it is true or false, I can't do anything with her, I can't control this matter, let's talk about it when the second brother comes back." ”

Others don't know that this Northern Expedition has been fought for too long, but Wei Ji knows that from the departure of the whole army to the retreat, there is only more than half a year. Counting the days, Yin Hao's army will suffer a heavy setback soon, with Wei Zhao's ability, it stands to reason that he will not fall into a dilemma with Yin Hao, and will get out of the Northern Expedition army as soon as possible.

Hui Niang didn't know what she was thinking, and sighed: "Xiao Yunzi is reminding Xiao Langjun not to trust Ling Yuan in and out of her words. ”

Wei Ji shook her head lightly, and didn't continue to say this, the rights and wrongs between several beautiful maids were twists and turns, and I was afraid that I would have to find a master of solving the case to sort it out. She was a little involved because Ling Yuan came to the door to cry that day, and she felt a headache when she thought about it. These beauties are kind, let's wait for the second brother to come back and take it by myself.

Thinking of Wei Zhao, she only had one thought left now, hoping that he would not be sent to the front army by Yin Hao and would return safely.

The situation of the war is changeable and unpredictable, even if she knows the final result, she doesn't know what is happening on the march, so when she thinks of Wei Zhao, she feels that he has the ability for a while, and at the same time she feels that the battlefield is treacherous, which is extremely contradictory.

After thinking about it for a long time, Wei Ji suppressed her worries and waited patiently for the news.

Soon it was early March, and the soldiers of the Zhao family were invited by King Langya to accompany Yaji, and the entire Yuzhang City was lively.

Early in the morning, the ox carts and servants who went out of the city passed through the city gate like a long dragon and headed for Zhangshan. King Langya was in a carriage at the front of the team, followed by Shi Yuzhi, followed by Dr. Zhao Lin and a group of local scholars in Yuzhang, and in the middle was Wei Ji and other scholars, and at the end was the Hanmen scholars, most of these people were three or four people in an ox cart, and the decoration was simple, which was obviously different from the front.

Wei Ji got up early in the morning, took a nap in the sound of driving, and fell asleep after a while. She didn't wake up until the carriage stopped and someone knocked on the door outside.

"Yudu, come out quickly."

Wei Ji opened the door and saw the faces of Luo Huan and several others.

"It's time to Zhangshan, come down quickly, let's find a good position first," Luo Huan said, "Even Yu Thorn Shi is here today, if you can leave a good impression in front of Thorn Shi later, you can say that you have a worry-free future." ”

The rest nodded in agreement.

Wei Ji smiled and jumped out of the car. She knows that both Jiang Zuo and Jiang have a habit of sticking to their hometowns and are reluctant to stay away, even after the order is made, most of them are willing to stay in the local area as officials. Because of this characteristic, even though the four surnames of Wang Xie Huan and Yu promised to let the scholars in the land of Sanwu participate more in the government affairs, in the end, the power of the four surnames of Sanwu has not expanded for many years, and they still only guard the original territory.

The appearance of the Yu Thorn History today is a great thing for the local scholars to show their faces, and it is more important than King Langya. After all, King Langya will eventually return to Jiankang, but the assassin is the first official in Jiangzhou.

Ox carts are parked all the way along the mountain road, and the servants shuttle back and forth, and the number of people is several times more than that of the nobles, and the whole Zhangshan is particularly lively.

Luo Huan and the others all knew that there was a pavilion in the middle of Zhangshan, and at that time, King Langya and Thorn Shi would go to rest in the pavilion, thinking of going to occupy a closer position in advance.

"Yudu, you have prepared the article" A scholar asked, it was a son of the Deng family, named Deng Jia, with a pair of conspicuous tiger teeth in his mouth.

Wei Ji shook her head and said, "No preparation." ”

"Oh, it's been so many days, why haven't you prepared an article, haven't you wasted today's opportunity"

Wei Ji said: "At our age, even if we are the history of assassination, we will not be allowed to compose on the spot, and the opportunity for today's Yaji is mainly to test your brother." ”

Luo Huan was surprised: "You are the same as what my eldest brother said yesterday. ”

Wei Ji knew more about Yaji in the Xie family in her previous life, although the places were different, but the general process was understood. Now that the Yuzhang clan is exhausted, these scholars around the age of fourteen to sixteen are still minors, and they are only a foil in the Yaji, and those who are really ready to show their faces and become famous are Luo Hong, Xiong Qian and other adult Langjun.

A few people walked to the mountainside, and there were already many people around, and it seemed that there were many people who intended to show their talents in front of the assassin.

This kind of revelation can't be too deliberate, the more you drill the camp, the more you have to look chic and refined, this is the custom of this dynasty. Wei Ji saw that there were indeed many scholars whose faces were whiter than before, and then took off their big cloaks, their big sleeves fluttering, and within the sight of the pavilion, let the servants put the bookcase on the table and write hard. There are also scholars who look up to the sky and chant poems, using the correct tone of Luoyang.

Wei Jiao Luo Huan and the others went around and found that they couldn't find any open space outside the pavilion.

"Yudu." Someone suddenly shouted behind him.

Wei Ji turned around and saw Xie Xuan standing outside the pavilion, tall and handsome. The place where he was closest to the pavilion was the foothills, and the servants were very clean, and the other scholars only looked at him with envy, but no one contended with him.

"You need to find a place to rest," Xie Xuan said politely.

Luo Hong pulled Wei Ji and asked, "Who is this?"

Xie Xuan was not close to the three local surnames, and he rarely went to banquets, so Luo Hong and the others did not know him.

Wei Ji said: "Chen Jun Xie Shi, Xie Xuan Langjun." ”

Luo Hong was stunned for a moment, and then immediately smiled: "Xie Langjun is polite, so I will bother a few others." ”

Wei Ji didn't go over with a few people, but said: "It's the first time I've come to Zhangshan, let's see how the scenery is first." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and continued to walk along the mountain road.

There is a large forest on the mountain, with the most camphor, it is early spring, it is lush, after the foothills, there is heather along the way.

The servants waited to guard the frame, and after some of them cleaned up the position of Lang Jun above, they had to stay away from it, waiting for the master's call before they could come forward. The servants brought by Wei Ji today stayed to guard the ox cart. She walked alone for a while, the mountain road twisted and turned, and she had come to the back of the pavilion, from which she could see the back of the pavilion.

She stopped and rested for a while, and suddenly heard footsteps on the side, and when she turned her head, she met another acquaintance.

Huan Xin.

He was dressed in a dark color, his body was tall, his face was cold when he saw her, and he didn't squint when he passed by her, and he didn't give her a look.

When Wei Ji saw him behaving like this, she knew that he had listened to the words of the banquet, which was just right, and both of them were at ease.

She walked a little circle on the back hillside, looked at the sun, and counted that the time should almost begin, and then walked back. I wanted to find another secluded corner to stay, but Luo Huan's sharp eyes saw her and waved her desperately to let her pass.

Wei Ji couldn't pretend to be blind, so he had to go over, Xie Xuan talked very happily with everyone, he was born in the gate, he was the highest status in the scholar clan, and his temperament was elegant and noble, which made people feel like a spring breeze, that is, this group of scholars had seen many characters on weekdays, and they were quickly impressed by him.

Wei Ji walked to Luo Huan and the others, Luo Huan said: "It turns out that Xie Wei is an old friend, why have you never mentioned it to us?"

Wei Ji's lips moved slightly, and she was about to say something, when a servant shouted: "Your Highness and Yu Assassin Shi are here." ”

On the mountain road, Sima Pi and Yu Zhi walked slowly.

The author has something to say:

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm just writing a little romance, not elevating the theme, not rising to the value It's just bloody and vulgar
