Be steadfast in being a passerby Verse 147
"Okay." The wild boar was loaded into the car, and Cheng Ye raised his hand to wipe his forehead: "This thing tastes worse than the domestic one, should we sell it or keep it at home?" ”
"Not for sale." Grandma Li had already stared: "Use it to make bacon." "The old people in the family are just a few wild boars, and they have not been built at all.
"Can you make bacon?" Jiang Cheng was pleasantly surprised: "I ate it a few times in southern Sichuan when I was young, and the taste was so fragrant that I still can't forget it." ”
"My sister-in-law is from southern Sichuan, and I learned from her."
Speaking of bacon, Xin Shansi was also greedy, looked up at the mountain, and saw that Old Man Lu and they were back, so he said: "Put the deer in..."
"We're in the car." Hong Huaqin, who walked behind his grandfather, spoke.
The people in their cars were all men, and Xin Shansi nodded: "Okay." ”
"The blind bear stacks wild boars," Li said, looking at the small grass pile not far away, "pull some hay to cover it." ”
Qijian carried the bear steadily to the foot of the mountain, and ran to greet him with a smile: "Don't fight with me, I'll deal with this bear." ”
"Loaded back." Cheng Yuliang hung two foxes on his waist, holding the huge beehive above his head with both hands.
After seeing the deer carried by the old man Lu, he smiled and said, "We have a good mouth." ”
The group returned to Xunjiatun and was close to the beginning. After dinner, the kitchen set up firewood to boil water. Young and old were busy all night before they cleaned up the wild boars and deer.
After Laba, Xin Shansi's family began to prepare New Year's goods, drove two more pigs back from Lao Tun's house, and killed the stuffing, dumplings, buns, and fried meatballs. When these things are done, the days will be on the eighteenth day of the lunar month. The smell of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger, and the Dashiji area is crowded with people inside and out.
Thousands of miles away, ride into Mondu. Meng Yao returned to the Chengnan palace to change his clothes, and entered the palace to see the emperor without lunch, and did not return until it was dark. Fang rested for a day, and he received a secret order from the emperor to encircle and suppress Yinnan Mountain.
"It's really impatient." Bard sarcastic.
Meng Yao's eyes looked at the secret decree in his hand, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "Of course the emperor is in a hurry." Riding quickly from Yinnan Mountain to Mengdu is only a blink of an eye, and it is a great trouble. If he doesn't get rid of it, how can he sleep in peace? ”
"It's a new year in a few days," Ba Shan, who was standing beside Bud, smiled in his eyes and proposed: "The prince is a little lonely to eat alone in the mansion, why don't you go to the princess's mansion to join in the fun?" ”
The idea is good, and Meng Yao's eyes are dark: "The huge Chengnan Palace, this king is a master." He sneered, handed the secret decree to the side, and said casually, "Let Diagram 8 and Diagram 6 go to the Fenshui camp to order troops according to the will." ”
"Yes." Bashan took the secret decree with both hands and retreated out of the house.
Meng Yao twisted the few fingers that had just taken the secret decree and blew gently: "Bud..."
Bard immediately straightened up: "The slave is here." ”
"Prepare the ceremony, the twenty-second day of the lunar month..."Meng Yao put his hand behind his back, and on the day of the new year, he wanted to worship his father, the queen mother, and Wu Ying: "This king is going to visit this king's good aunt." ”
Bard bowed his head: "Don't worry, the prince." ”
The main gate of the Chengnan Palace's mansion was wide open, and the entire Mengdu was quiet, and even the atmosphere of the New Year was a little cautious.
On the afternoon of the 21st, the double eagles flew over the wild fox ridge outside Tanzhou City, and the troops in Pictures 8 and 6 sneaked into the mountain. In the middle of the night, Meng Yao received a message, and the next day he left the palace and rode to the palace of Princess Yuling, and at the same time three small sedan chairs went out from the back door of No. 51 Courtyard of Dongyu Street.
Princess Yuling Mansion, Tan Siyu hurriedly entered the main courtyard with a sad face. After a while, a scream was heard from inside the room, accompanied by the sound of cups cracking, followed by a feeble roar.
"Waste... Waste, it's all waste..."
"The princess is angry." Tan Siyu, who had a few pieces of tea scattered on his head and face, was not afraid of the bleeding wound on his forehead, and kowtowed heavily to the ground: "The princess is angry, when the concubine came, the marquis had already been settled." ”
Cha Shan Cha Shui combined forces failed to remove the blazing feelings in her Kun'er body... Meng Yuling propped up the edge of the bed with one hand, panting sharply, they... They must not have done their best, they must be. Her abdomen burned, her eyebrows tightened, her forehead twitched, and her face turned pale. Why? Is Kun'er just her child? If he doesn't want to, why should he send man?
The room was silent, Tan Siyu tensed up, looking at the bright red flowing on the floor tiles, and the divine light in his eyes flickered brightly. The qi and blood in her body were surging, and she clenched her back molars to hold on.
The discomfort subsided slightly, Meng Yuling slowly raised her eyes, and the ups and downs of her heart were still intense: "You ... You go back to the Good Warrior Hall and take care of... Take good care of my Kun'er. He's good... You're good. ”
Mu Kun's waste is good, she is going to be bad. The ridicule in Tan Siyu's eyes flashed by, and he tried his best to let go of his teeth, his body was immediately weak, and he was about to fall crookedly, and he tried his best to stabilize his body with his ten fingers, and only then did he tremble and say: "Concubine everything... Listen to the princess. ”
Meng Yuling's eyes darkened, and she smiled: "Stand down." ”
"Yes." Tan Siyu hit his head against the ground, paused for three or five breaths, calmed down and took a deep breath and dragged his right leg, and his body was propped up. Suppressing the surging qi and blood, she kept telling herself that she couldn't show her stuff, and that if she wanted to win, she must win. The blood had drenched a pair of eyebrows, she held her breath and straightened her knees little by little, and it was easy to stand up, and she wanted to lift her heavy head a little, when a wave of dizziness hit, her eyes rolled up, and her body shook.
Looking at the blood-stained face, Meng Yuling stared at it and asked in a soft tone, "What's wrong?" There was pity in her expression, as if she was not the one who had just smashed Siyu with a tea cup.
Stabilizing herself, Tan Siyu shook her head slightly: "Concubine... The concubine is fine, but her head is a little dizzy. ”
The body is really delicate, Meng Yuling hooked the corner of her lower lip: "You go to the side room to clean up, and then go back to Shanyong Hall." ”
"Yes, the concubine retired." Tan Siyu bent her knees slightly, bowed in a proper manner, and then moved her feet back. She was standing five or six paces away from the door of the inner chamber, but at this moment those five or six steps were worth a thousand miles to her. Taking two steps back, she struggled to turn, her toes clutching at the soles of her shoes.
Didn't she just smash it? Meng Yuling looked coldly at Tan Siyu, who was crumbling and swaying.
As if Mang was on her back, Tan Siyu's eyes turned up several times, but she twisted back, raised her stiff right hand, held her forehead, and pretended to be dizzy. Out of the inner room, she didn't dare to relax, and when she reached the door of the main room, she was really weak, leaned forward, and grabbed the door frame. With a sigh of relief, she lifted her thousand-pound leg to the threshold.
Knowing that Mu Kun failed to pull out the poison, Qin Qingyao knew that Meng Yuling was going to be angry, and rushed to the main courtyard after a little tidying up. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard gate, he saw Tan Siyu coming out of the main room with a bloody face, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
Sensing his gaze, Tan Siyu raised his eyes and saw that there was fog in his eyes, and he knew that it was him, and his hand that was still holding the door frame couldn't help but tighten, and slowly lowered his head.
Her body ... Qin Qingyao looked at Tan Siyu without a trace, and without stopping, he hurried past her up the steps.
A light cold fragrance brushed her nose, and Tan Siyu couldn't help but absorb it, wanting to keep more. Soon there was a soft voice from the inner room, and her surging qi and blood did not subside, adding to the sadness, and her throat itched for no reason.
"Princess, didn't you promise me that no matter what happens, you won't be easily angry?" Worry and distress filled Qin Qingyao's eyes, and after he finished his salute, he sat on the edge of the bed, hugged Meng Yuling, and let him lean on his arms.
Meng Yuling grabbed his hand, coughed lightly, and said weakly: "I don't want to be angry either, but... But it couldn't hold the fire. ”
"If you do this again, Qingyao will not leave you for the rest of the day."
It's so gentle! Tan Siyu, who was still outside, let go of her thoughts, and her mind was full of Meng Yuling and... With him, there was a trace of fragility between his eyebrows and eyes, and the hand that was clenching the door frame was loosened, and he didn't know where the strength came from, so he dragged his steps crookedly and rushed out of the side door.
In the inner room, Qin Qingyao listened to the vain footsteps and walked away, with a smile in his eyes, but this smile was instantaneous. His eyes were lowered, and his veins were staring at the person in his arms. The emperor recalled King Chengnan, and there was not much time left for Meng Yuling.
"Okay ... Just let you watch. Meng Yuling's tone was doting, but it was full of fragility, and she slowly turned her eyes to look at the window: "I have just returned to the Ming Dynasty, and I have only done a lot of work, so it will be dark." ”
"It's a change of ground outside." Qin Qingyao pulled her sliding quilt up, thinking about King Chengnan in his heart. Will that one let Meng Yu leave Meng Du flexibly? The Absolute Evil Building is gone, and the Qi family outside the city is gone, presumably Yinnan Mountain should also be soon. Meng Yuling and Qi Ningshu are no longer threatening and have no value to use.
"Is it going to snow again?" Before the words fell, Meng Yuling coughed.
Qin Qingyao hurriedly helped her to calm down: "It should be." "Meng Yuling can't leave Mengdu alive, so... Who took him to Qi Ningshu? The already drooping eyelashes fell again, and the corners of his lips lifted slightly.
Coughing constantly, Meng Yuling's face turned red, his eyes still did not leave the window, and he stubbornly seemed to want to see through something.
"Princess..."Qin Qingyao saw that the mouth of the person in his arms was dyed with a very sticky color, and immediately reined in his thoughts, and said in a panic: "You are... I'll call Dr. White for you—" and he got up.
"Ahem... I'm fine. Meng Yuling pressed Qin Qingyao's hand, and although she coughed again and again, her eyes looking at the window were unusually calm: "Kun'er cough... Failed to pull out the cough and cough heat. ”
Qin Qingyao sat stiffly, his half-open mouth slowly closed, and his pressed hand bent his fingers and flipped over to interlock with Meng Yuling's ten fingers. How ridiculous! Here, Meng Yuling tried his best to give Mu Kun a blazing feeling, but his eldest brother erected a card at the foot of Shengran Mountain, and solved the blazing love with ten taels of silver. It is really the cycle of cause and effect, and good and evil will be rewarded in the end.
It took a long time for Meng Yuling to stop coughing, her tongue stirring the saltiness in her mouth, and when the agitated chest calmed down, she swallowed hard, was silent for a moment, and said softly: "There are some things that I have always been reluctant to admit in the past, but now... But he can no longer deceive himself. She and Qi Ningshu, who is the "master"? Over the years, did she coerce him with "love", or was she Meng Yuling a chess piece on his Qi Ningshu chessboard from the beginning?
Qin Qingyao pursed his lips and didn't answer.
Was his encounter with her that year really just fate? Meng Yuling thought about it, and couldn't help but sneer lightly, her tear-soaked eyes closed little by little, and she bit word by word: "Be careful." ”
"Princess..."Qin Qingyao muttered, his arms tightened Meng Yuling slightly, and he bowed his head to lick her tears, but his lips came before he went outside.
A woman hurriedly walked into the door, stopped inside and outside, and reported: "Princess, the prince of Chengnan has come to see you." ”
Hearing this, Meng Yuling's tightly closed eyes opened suddenly, and she glanced at Qing Yao, whose body had become tense, and was about to sit up with her hands on the bed: "Don't you hurry up and ask Chengnan..."
In the silence, Meng Yao entered the inner room, glanced down at the broken porcelain on the floor, and then did not look at his seriously ill aunt, but carefully examined the furnishings of the room like a master who had not returned for a long time.
Qin Qingyao helped Meng Yuling sit down, got up and stepped aside. I haven't seen him for a few days, and although King Chengnan's momentum is still cold, his pace is more calm than ever. This is also normal, ordinary people have plenty of money in their hands, and they must be steadfast in their hearts, let alone him.
Meng Yuling looked at this nephew without blinking, the hand on the quilt couldn't help but tighten, and her chest was so dull that she was about to gasp.
After Meng Yao finished looking into the room, his eyes fell on the young man standing with his head slightly bowed, Qin Qingyao?
Qin Qingyao lowered his eyebrows and raised his hand to salute: "Xiaomin has seen the prince. ”
The thumb of Meng Yao's right hand, which was behind his back, gently rubbed the leather wrapped around the handle of the horsewhip, and there was some uncertainty in his expression. He had known Qin Qing for a long time, but this was the first time he had faced each other. This person's eyebrows and lips should be feminine, but he gave him the feeling... But it's not ordinary.
It stands to reason that it is longer than the wind and dust, and it should be accustomed to being small and low, but at this moment, Qin Qingyao's lowered eyebrows and eyes did not have a trace of welcome. Standing posture, without bowing the back is still natural, which should be cultivated over the years.
Meng Yuling's eyes moved slightly, wanting to take a look at Qingyao.
"Why is my aunt so sick?" Meng Yao withdrew his gaze coldly, looked at the woman on the bed who was so emaciated that she was almost gone, and saw that her eyes turned back sharply, she couldn't help but raise her lips, and she didn't hide her good mood, and asked in a brisk tone: "What does the imperial doctor say, can it still be cured?" Without waiting for anyone to speak, he frowned and pretended to regret, "It's a pity that Dr. Li's family has a young daughter to take care of, and in the future, he will set up a medicine house at the foot of Shengran Mountain to relieve his passion, and he will not be empty." Otherwise, this king will have invited him to come to Mengdu to show you. ”
This nephew is really better than a day to disgust her, Meng Yuling gasped for breath without a mouth, watching people approach, the sickness on the tide in her eyes was even worse: "How many years... I should have died a long time ago. ”
Standing on the edge of the bed, Meng Yao looked down at the face.
Under his cold gaze, the heart in Meng Yuling's belly beat cautiously. If it weren't for the nosy affairs of Xifolong Temple back then, she would never have left this wolf cub alive.
The mother-in-law brought tea inside, put it down and retreated to stand at the end of the bed.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Qin Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief without a trace. Dr. Li has a young daughter to take care of... Dr. Li and his young daughter, the corners of his lips moved slightly, and he felt a little lonely. In this life, I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity to meet them.
Meng Yao had seen enough of Meng Yuling, and smiled indifferently: "Don't say that, this king is looking forward to your long life." ”
Looking forward to her longevity? Meng Yuling didn't believe it at all, coughed lightly twice and said mournfully: "Yao'er, it's my aunt..."
"If you die early...", Meng Yao whispered, "Who will eliminate the hatred in the king's heart?" ”
Meng Yuling was stunned, overflowing with sorrow, and choked: "You hate... I should be in the bones, I don't excuse me, and I can't excuse it. Because..."Tears flowed, she let go of the quilt with her right hand and grabbed her heart, her words were full of remorse, "Because of the imperial brother... Indeed, the leg of the royal brother was abolished by me. But... But I still want to tell you, it wasn't my intention, and I didn't have the guts to do it... I really didn't make a mistake. Crying, she knew that no one believed her, "It's really unintentional, I don't dare... I really don't dare..."At that time, she was only about to be thirteen years old, how dare she kill her elder? "Your father was brought up by the emperor, and even if I give me 11,000 guts, I won't dare to harm him... Really..."
"Whether you have a heart or not, only you know. This king has no intention of pursuing those old things. Meng Yao's eyes narrowed slightly: "This king only knows how this king's father and mother didn't have it, and how Wu Ying ended up being buried in the wilderness." ”
What she said was true, she really didn't mean to harm her elders. Meng Yuling cried and laughed, tears and snot falling together. Before the spring hunt that year, she accidentally caught a glimpse of her mother's secret correspondence with her foreign man, and learned that she was not of royal blood. She tried her best to deny that it was not true, and looked in the mirror like a fool, telling herself over and over again that she was a princess and the emperor's own child.
She was afraid, she was afraid of being cut by her father's five horses, and she was afraid of death. It's hard to sit still, can't sleep at night, and is in a trance for half a moon. On the spring hunt, she was short of energy and wanted to hunt more prey to please her father, but she didn't think about a careless but... But an arrow hit the chief.
Then... She watched her eldest brother fall from his horse, and her heart was torn open with fear. It is no exaggeration to say that she died with it. And at that moment, she really wished she was dead.
The eldest brother was abolished, and the government and the opposition were in an uproar. She was saved from death because of the royal blood flowing in her body, but her mother could not escape the blame.
She witnessed her mother, who had been pampered since she entered the palace, being pressed to the ground by several palace people. The dignified and beautiful woman, no longer had the grandeur of the past, desperately crying and begging. It was useless, and she died in the end, with no dignity at all.
Qin Qingyao, who was still saluting, raised his eyelashes slightly and glanced at Meng Yuling. He believed what Meng Yuling said, and the injury was an accident, but what about afterward? Everything after that is not an accident.
All that Lie He had in the past 22 years was something that Meng Yuling did not want to recall at all, but at this time, the memories were flooding. The death of her mother made her see through the love of the emperor's family and realize that even if she was born to the royal family, life and death were just in the emperor's thoughts.
She doesn't want to live in fear, she wants to stand under the sky like her father... Eyes on all beings.
The horsewhip stopped Meng Yuling's fading jaw, and Meng Yao raised her face up. Due to the impact of memory, Meng Yuling failed to restrain the rising desire in his eyes in time, and panicked for a while.
Meng Yao stared at her eyes, with a smile on her face: "I'm so sick that I'm dying, why can't my aunt let it go?" ”
"What can't you put uh..."The horsewhip under her chin pressed against her throat, and Meng Yuling immediately stopped.
Now Meng Yao is a little convinced of what Li Shang thinks, Xu Siqin has really succeeded in refining the medicine that fuses the essence element, otherwise how could a dying person still have such great ambitions?
"Having reached such a situation, my aunt no longer needs to be tired and pretend to be with this king. This king is not idle to accompany you to act. ”
"Lord, the princess is still sick, you..." The mother-in-law wanted to step forward, but was kicked in the crook of the leg by Bard behind her, and fell to her knees. Bashan drew his sword, put the cold blade against the neck of his mother-in-law, and warned in a cold voice: "The prince didn't ask you, so you closed your tongue and closed your mouth." ”
Tears flowed down the tails of his eyes, Meng Yuling gasped hard, looked at Meng Yao, and said firmly for a long time: "You kill me, kill me to avenge your father." ”
Meng Yao sneered: "Kill you, and the emperor will have an excuse to punish this king." This king is not dizzy yet, so I don't need you to remind him. "Retracting the horsewhip, with his hand behind his back, he took great pains to look at the person on the bed, "Although Aunt Wang Guan is sick on the couch, her mind is still alive, and she thinks that this illness should not be serious." It's good if it's not heavy, this king will tell the emperor, the emperor is worried about you. ”
Meng Yuling's color changed: "You ..."
