Man is a hazard to be, Section 155
Wei Ji had her own judgment in her heart, and she didn't want to argue with him, "I didn't say anything." ”
Huan Qi lifted her chin with one hand and stared at her dark and bright eyes, his heart suddenly softened, as if he wanted to say something. He thought to himself, what he said to have fun, it was all because of the sentence "In case he is merry outside", he has the heart to say a few words to calm her heart. In fact, since he knew the identity of Wei Jiao, his mind was all on her, and no one was added to the backyard.
Wei Ji suddenly hiccuped, pushed Huan Qi away, covered her hands on her abdomen, and frowned to show an uncomfortable expression.
Huan Qi hugged the person into his arms, his brows furrowed, "Sima Yinxuan's wine is delicious, she has always liked spirits, you dare to drink with her, I don't know whether I am alive or dead." ”
Wei Jiao's stomach turned over like a river, closed her eyes and took a long breath, her face flushed. Huan Qi asked the servant to hurry up to find the doctor, and asked the maid to come in to serve, and after a while, the doctor had not yet arrived, but Sima Yinxuan's maid came first, saying that he had sent a unique hangover pill on the order of the lord of Weng.
Huan Qi was still a little uneasy with the medicine, so he called the pro-soldier to give a few orders, and after half an hour, the pro-soldier returned to life. Only then did he feed the pill to Wei Ji to eat, and it quickly took effect, and Wei Ji was comfortable and fell asleep.
On the second day, Huan Qi was originally going to take Wei Ji out to play, but Wei Ji was uncomfortable last night and could only stay in Zhuangzi to recuperate. The steward prepared a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables, and asked the servants to release the rooster, and played a cockfight in the yard. A few young servants stumbled left and right, chasing the fluttering flying chickens all over the yard, amusing the onlookers.
Sima Yinxuan and the maidservant also came to join in the fun, she never stopped smiling, and after watching the cockfight, she walked towards Wei Ji, regardless of Huan Qi's cold expression on the side, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen this kind of trick for a long time, and my stomach hurts with laughter." Yesterday I had a drink with Wei Langjun, which relieved my worries, and it was time to leave tomorrow. ”
Wei Ji said goodbye to her, and the two exchanged a few words, although they didn't say much, they were sincere.
Sima Yinxuan blinked and said, "Don't forget what I told you when I was drinking, life is geometric, only drinking is fun." ”
Huan Qi heard that it was not decent, and said: "Lord Weng's trip is in a hurry, and I will send someone to escort Lord Weng out of the city." ”
Sima Yinxuan smiled and nodded, she brought a lot of people, most of them were servants, if there were soldiers from the Huan family to escort them, the road would be unimpeded.
She was about to leave holding the handmaid's hand, when she suddenly remembered something, turned her head again, and said: "There is an interesting thing, a few days ago, in the concubine room in the backyard of General Huan, I asked someone to give a gift to the maid next to me, saying that the general is now good Longyang is not good fat powder, and asked the maid to come to Zhuangzi in front of me. After saying that, she smiled again, turned around and left.
Huan Qi's face was expressionless. Wei Ji just didn't know.
Early in the morning of the second day, Sima Yinxuan set off with people, and Wei Ji sent a pair of calligraphy and paintings. Sima Yinxuan sat on the ox cart and looked at her across the curtain, "Yulang's handwriting is a testament, and I will treasure it." ”
Wei Ji said solemnly, and watched the group go up to the official road, gradually moving away.
She turned around and was about to go back, but saw the guard leading a horse, Huan Qi hugged her waist and put it on the horse, turned over herself, took the person in front of her, and said, "I heard from the steward that there is a forest nearby, go, let's go and see it today." ”
The author has something to say:
Chapter 240: Chapter 239
Huan Qi looked down at the small crown on the top of Wei Ji's hair, clamped the horse's belly, and walked towards the field and mountain road outside the village. The guards who followed recognized the look and followed unhurriedly.
The wind in her ears was whistling, and Wei Jiao's face was blown cold, and after enduring it for a while, she couldn't help but turn her face sideways and avoid it. Huan Qi felt that she took the initiative to lean over, and there was a moment of joy in his heart, and he loosened some of the bridles in his hand, and slowed down some speed.
There was nothing to say all the way, and soon I came to the dense forest mountain road, It was early spring, and the treetops and branches had already emerged green, looking vibrant. Huan Qi did not go deep into the forest, but rode to the slope, and saw the sunrise a red light, and the clouds were steaming, enveloping the distant and nearby peaks.
Wei Ji was helped off the horse by him, and looked at the scenery in front of her and was stunned.
Huan Qi didn't speak, let her watch quietly. After a while, he suddenly reached out and touched her face, and said, "Why don't you say it when it's cold?"
Wei Ji said: "Just blow some wind, just slow down." ”
Huan Qi's eyebrows tightened, he had already discovered that the Wei family's weak body was the same as the decline, and he needed to take care of his body carefully on weekdays, and a slight negligence and headache and brain fever were indispensable. Thinking about this, he said, "I was about to send a letter to Jiang Xia in the past two days, and I just called Hui Yuan to take care of your body." ”
Wei Ji raised her eyes and looked at him, "I can write a letter home"
Huan Qi said: "Why not, I didn't detain you." As soon as he said this, he saw Wei Jiao pouting slightly, he walked to the saddle, took out a letter from the side pouch, and handed it over with his long arm. Wei Ji took it and unfolded it, and it was actually her mother Yang's handwriting, so she quickly looked at it. After reading it all word by word, she hung her head and was silent.
Huan Qi took Wei Ji to Zhuangzi, and today he came to the mountain early to watch the scenery, all in order to let her relax. Yang's letter happened to arrive yesterday, and taking it out now is an intention to curry favor. He saw that Wei Ji didn't speak when he read the letter, so he pinched her chin and raised her face, only to see that her eyes were already red, her heart tightened, and she said with a tense face: "I didn't say anything above, what are you crying about?"
Wei Ji put the letter away. Listening to Huan Qi's sentence, he knew that he had read the content of the letter, and the letters from Jiangxia were all sent by Wei Shen, and Yang's was caught in it, so it was not surprising that he had read it.
Yang's letter said that he knew that she came to Jingzhou, and said that Huan Qi was raised by Wei's family, and his character was trustworthy, so he took her away and left a marriage letter. Yang said, now the court is in a safe corner, the north is eyeing the tiger, there are military rebellions from time to time, and there are troubles in the face of disasters and displaced people everywhere.
Wei Jiao's nose was pantothenic, and she was even more frightened when she saw the Yang family mention the homeless, remembering the misfortune suffered by her family in her previous life. She was silent. Her mother was widowed when she was young, and she was dedicated to taking care of her and her brother. Later, the elder brother fell into the water and disappeared, and the mother couldn't think of hysteria for a while, and now her consciousness has recovered a little, and all her thoughts and thoughts are for the rest of her life.
Wei Jiao's heart was mixed, and she was a little stunned.
Seeing that she was silent, Huan Qi was a little anxious, but his face was not obvious, and said: "I have asked someone to collect the best medicinal materials and send them to Jiangxia, and when I have time in the future, I will take you back to Jiangxia to see your mother." ”
Wei Ji put aside her face, knowing that what he said was leisurely, at least after this trip to the army, she put aside her face, fixed her mind, and said, "Uncle's letter?"
A trace of unnaturalness flashed on Huan Qi's face, and he said, "I didn't say anything." Alright, come out for a while, it's time to go back. As he spoke, he brought the horse and sat down with Wei Ji in his arms.
After he got on the horse, he pulled the big gun away and wrapped Wei Ji inside.
Wei Ji was reluctant, his clothes were mixed with jataman, agarwood and a strong masculine smell on his body, but he moved hard, hugged her, and said softly: "What are you messing with, go back carefully and blow it again." ”
When he went back, he slowed down a little bit compared to when he came, and Huan Qi thought that he had really done the right thing to come to Zhuangzi this time. Wei Jiao's attitude was much more relaxed than when she was at home, and she was willing to say a few words to him. It was the letter she asked Wei Shen just now, but he didn't answer well, since he left Jiangxia, Wei Shen had sent several letters one after another, scolding him bloody. A few days ago, he sent a letter directly to Huan Wen, reprimanding him for not being controlled, abducting people, and turning Huan Wen upside down, but he could only endure it.
Huan Qi didn't ask her to read Wei Shen's letter, for fear that she would be angry again.
It was still early in the morning, and there were no people on the road, and there were already pedestrians along the way. Seeing that Huan Qijun was tall and tall, and there were guards not far away, passers-by deliberately avoided it. At this time, passing by a wide flat land, Wei Ji saw an elderly couple with a boy sitting on the side of the road to rest, the old woman took out two dry cakes from the cloth bag, one gave to the boy, and the other was torn in half, leaving a small half for herself, and handing the remaining half to the old man on the side. The old man chewed the bread, and stuffed the rest back into the old woman's hand.
Huan Qi also saw it, and guessed from the ragged manners and deeds of the three people that they should have come from the north, he stopped his horse and stood there, and asked the old couple where they came from and where they were going. Both of them were cowering, and they all answered Huan Qi's questions one by one, and they didn't dare to hide it in the slightest.
After asking, Huan Qi looked away, but noticed that the old man had left a stutter for the old woman. His heart suddenly moved, and he rarely gave birth to a trace of compassion, raised his hand to call the guards over, and asked people to share some of the dry food he brought with him to the two elders. The two elders took the boy and went away with a thousand thanks.
Huan Qi thought for a while, rode a horse for a while, and suddenly asked Wei Ji: "But seeing the couple relying on each other just now, I felt pity."
These days, in addition to being busy with official business, he is thinking about things with Wei Ji, he has already promised his wife, and he has done everything to please him, before he was drunk and impulsive, Wei Ji also behaved coldly, as if he had never moved. Although Sima Yinxuan's words that day were harsh, they also reminded him that the reputation of the romance left behind in the past was hindered.
The couple was poor and dependent on each other just now, and Huan Qi thought that the woman was easy to soften when she saw it, so he started to tease Wei Ji to speak.
Wei Ji hesitated for a moment and said, "I see that Fu Jian has been prepared, this battle is not easy to fight." ”
Huan Qi pulled the bridle suddenly, stopped suddenly, and blurted out: "How did you guess?"
Wei Ji said: "You just asked them what the price of grain in the north is, and where the young people in the township have gone, isn't it just to find out if the north is prepared." The people cherish the countryside the most, if they are not aware of the difficulty of life and death due to military disasters, why would the two old men take their grandchildren to run thousands of miles. ”
Huan Qi's eyes were full of surprise, he knew that Yudu was different from ordinary scholars, but he didn't want her ability to surprise him. He tightened his arms a little, hugged Wei Ji in his arms, and was silent for a moment before urging the horse forward again.
Back in the Zhuangzi, Huan Qi asked the servants and maids to clean up and salute, and hurried back with people after lunch.
Shi Zhu and Kong Qing felt strange, and secretly asked Wei Ji if there was an accident at home. Wei Ji shook her head slightly, telling the two of them not to speculate.
Huan Qi sent Wei Ji home, watched her go in, didn't change her clothes, and went to the Thorn Shi Mansion instead. It is related to the Northern Expedition, and the Huan family has made great efforts to send troops inside and outside, and there is no room for mistakes.
Along the way, he quickly arrived in front of the Thorn Mansion, all the way from the front yard through the state office, to the door of the study, Huan Wen's close entourage was in front of the door, stopped him, and saw that there was no one around, he was angry, and said in a low voice: "Qi Langjun wait, the prince is inside." ”
Huan Qi waited in front of the door for a while, and suddenly Huan Wen's voice came from the door, and he followed him in, and soon came out to invite Huan Qi in.
Huan Qi walked into the study, Huan Xi was sitting at the bottom, his shoulders were broad, his back was straight, and there were two rolls of silk silk on the table in front of Huan Wen.
Huan Qi saluted and shouted to his father, and then waved at Huan Xi, calling him brother.
Huan Xi nodded with a smile and said, "Jingdao didn't go to Zhuangzi to relax, he came back so soon."
Huan Qi knew that he had always liked to show his brother, friend, and brother, and replied with a smile: "Two or three days is enough, and today I learned that something is related to the dispatch of troops, so I will come back first." ”
"What else can be related to military affairs in Zhuangzi" Huan Xi didn't care, but he deliberately said this to curry favor in front of Huan Wen. Since the imperial court agreed to send troops, Huan Wen handed over all the training and scheduling to Huan Qi, whether it was in the house or in the army, there were rumors that Huan Wen belonged to Huan Qi, and he was squeezed into the world. Huan Xi was jealous in his heart, but he had to act like a brother in front of others.
A while ago, he deliberately found two celebrities, and made an article reciting Huan's family and Da Sima, taking advantage of Huan Qi's absence to Zhuangzi, he took it to Huan Wen, and was intending to flatter and flatter, but Huan Qi suddenly came back.
Huan Wen listened to Huan Qi's words, his expression froze, and asked, "What do you know?"
Huan Qi told the old couple he met on the road.
Huan Xi smiled, quite incredible, "Rural homeless, I don't have much knowledge, you came here to take a trip, solemnly, just to say this"
Huan Qi glanced at him obliquely, and did not speak, knowing that he didn't hear the mystery inside, he couldn't help but despise it, Huan Xi really has no talent, and he is not as good as a girl in Yudu. Huan Qi's mind is flying, and there are many talented women in the scholar clan, all of whom can write calligraphy and painting and write poems and lyrics.
Huan Qi touched his chin, his heart was hot, and he secretly said that the person that Lao Tzu fancied was not only born like a fairy, but also had a better understanding than those who were famous, but also one in a million.
Huan Xi didn't understand, but Huan Wen twisted his eyebrows and said, "It's not good, Fu Jian has already prepared." ”
Huan Xi was stunned, his heart couldn't say a few words of the homeless people seriously, and he swallowed back the words at Shang Huan Wen's cold gaze.
"This matter should not be underestimated, and it needs to be discussed carefully." Huan Wen said, waved his hand, and asked Huan Xi to go first, "You go first." These articles are good in calligraphy and painting, but the flattery is too much, you don't go out to publicize it everywhere, as long as the Northern Expedition wins, no one in my Huan family is afraid, if it is defeated, it is useless to write a hundred articles. ”
Huan Xi left with a red face, stared at Huan Qi's back before leaving, turned his face, and his eyes were full of hatred.
The author has something to say:
I can't stay up late, tomorrow is the same as today
Chapter 241: Chapter 240: Untitled
Waiting for Huan Xi to leave, Huan Wen sighed, pondered for a moment, and said: "Since there are preparations in the north, we can't wait any longer, the first batch of grain and grass arrives, and we will send troops to the pass." ”
Huan Qi's expression was also a little dignified, and he nodded.
Huan Wen called the strategists to discuss, originally planning to advance slowly, but now he suddenly sent troops ahead of schedule, and there were many things that needed to be rescheduled. It wasn't until it was getting dark that it was gone. Huan Wen originally wanted to stay with Huan to open the meal, but Huan Qi deduced that he would go home early for a day.
Huan Wen's old face was tense, and he said: "The army is about to be dispatched, put away all your fancy thoughts for me, don't circle around a woman all day long." He knew that Huan Qi had taken Wei Ji to play in Zhuangzi in the past few days, but he received a letter from Wei Shen at home to reprimand him. He has been in a high position for many years, and even the new emperor has to speak politely, where have he ever suffered such a loss, but the fault is all on Huan Qi, Huan Wen held his stomach, and his harsh words were deliberately beaten.
Huan Qi still looked careless, "I know in my heart, I won't get in the way." ”
Huan Wen snorted coldly: "If only you really knew." Bo Dao made a lot of trouble for the sake of a concubine, and what about you, refused the family affairs of the lord Weng. One or two, no worries at all. ”
Huan Xi smiled and listened, raised his eyes and glanced up, thinking that his father loved to pet the Li family in the outer room, and everyone in Jingzhou knew about it, and I don't know where the root cause of this romantic problem is.
Huan Wen looked at it with a straight face, "You are now dizzy by beauty, the girl of the Wei family is good-looking, but her family background is ordinary, and she may not be able to suppress your backyard in the future. Do you understand it?"
Huan Qi's expression froze, and said: "The Wei family has old hopes, Yudu's knowledge and bearing are not bad, and they are the best among the girls of the scholar clan.
Huan Wen waved his hand, "I know that you originally wanted to settle the family affairs before sending out the troops, but now it's too late anyway, hurry up and send the Wei family girl back." ”
Huan Qi frowned and remained silent.
Seeing that he was silent, Huan Wen took a deep breath, and said in a soothing tone: "As long as you have made great achievements in the Northern Expedition this time, I don't care who you want to marry, if you can recapture the old capital Luoyang, I will personally go to the Wei clan for you to ask for a marriage." ”
Huan Qi immediately responded.
When he came out of the Thorn Mansion, Huan Qi rode back to the house, his expression was calm, thinking about the arrangements for sending troops, and thinking of Huan Wen just now, he couldn't help but be happy. According to the day of the army, there are still more than two months in the world, and he originally planned to arrange the marriage single-handedly, but this was a bit hasty and easy to attract criticism. got Huan Wen's personal promise, and everything waited until after the Northern Expedition to get married, and he always hid a trace of anxiety and uneasiness in his heart.
The guard reined in his horse and turned back and said, "General, it's here." ”
Huan Qi came back to his senses and returned to the front of the mansion.
He dismounted and entered the house, instructed the servants to prepare some food first, and asked Xiao Langjun if he had eaten and what he was doing now. From steward to servant, he has long been accustomed to him asking Xiao Langjun about it, and he picked up what he knew. Huan Qi arrived at the gate of the main courtyard, and saw a woman in a honey-colored dress waiting, and when he saw him, he called Lang Jun.
Huan Qi frowned, "What are you doing here at this time?"
Pei Lan said: "The maid knew that Lang Jun came back today, so she made some food, all of which Lang Jun liked to eat when he was in Jiangzhou." ”
The last time she sent out the sachet, Huan Qi took it, she had a glimmer of hope in her heart, at this time, she glanced over, and saw that Huan Qi had a jade pendant hanging on his waist, and there was no sachet, she was slightly disappointed, and quickly cleaned up her mood, and asked the maid to open the corner of the food box, revealing the Hu cake inside.
She is dressed very gently and freshly, and her posture is supple.
Huan Qi glanced at it, his face was expressionless, so that people couldn't see joy and anger.
