Part 2 Chapter 43 On the Road of Doubt
Xu is Tang Xiaoyu said too staggering, or Wu Xiang suddenly returned to the level of IQ and realized that the situation was serious - once Dongqi sent troops, there was no room for recovery, so he hurriedly asked Shangguan Lingwan for a map, and carefully deduced it here.
Wu Yushi was in no mood to walk around the town, and the host Sun County Ling was also concerned about the safety of the people, so he found the map in the county treasury and discussed it carefully with Wu Xiang, as the sky became darker and darker, the faces of the two became darker and darker.
Tang Xiaoyu and Shangguan Lingwan sat under the porch, and talked about the affairs of the Qi family very leisurely and elegantly, after all, the second master of Qi attempted murder, Yuan Dingyi did not let go, and the man was sentenced to exile.
The sinner's family was redeemed with money and was exempted from flogging.
"I can't figure it out, why did you let go of Second Master Qi's family, those people won't miss your goodness. Shangguan Lingwan said dissatisfied.
"It's nothing, Second Master Qi put a lot of money in Yunan, Qi Wensong also spent a lot of money on salt wells, and the Qi family put the coffin out. "In addition, Yinzi Qian was rectified by Wanling, although it is not impossible to open the pot, but it is not far away, if Qiwensong is smarter, he will shrink his hands and feet to recuperate, if he continues to die, he will probably be desolate in his old age.
After all, it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality, and it is easy to go from thrift to luxury.
"If they can do their own iniquity and not live, why should I dirty my hands? ”
Shangguan Lingwan didn't dare to disagree and said: "If you are like this, you are not afraid of letting the tiger return to the mountain? ”
"Aftermath?" Tang Xiaoyu rolled his eyes disdainfully, leaned back slightly, supported his body with the back of the chair, and lazily looked at the eaves and said, "Heh~, their family will fly separately when disaster comes, and they will soon be unable to live in the town." ”
Offended the abbot and wanted to leave, it was not so cheap.
The Kai family will move with the family and truly take the first step towards the fall of the family.
"Then who will take over the Fuhu Hall, or will Wanling simply abolish this hall?"
"Keep it, the hall must not be wasted. "The abolition of the hall will cause turmoil in the hearts of the people, seeing the defeat of the same family, there are still many people who will have the idea of cooking a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey, Tang Xiaoyu first has to stabilize the hearts of the Cao Gang, as for the people of Fuhutang who are bullied to leave on their own in the future, it is all a later story.
Tang Xiaoyu confidently raised her eyes to look into the distance, the sky outside the eaves turned orange, and the fragrance of rice came from the people's homes.
She turned around to look at the two people who were still staring at the map in the study, they were concentrating, and from time to time they picked up small ornaments to compare, Tang Xiaoyu couldn't see the end of this discussion, and simply said to Shangguan Lingwan: "I'll go back to see Xiaobai, and go to my house to find me if I have something." ”
"Well, you go back and rest, I don't think they can sleep tonight. Shangguan Lingwan understood her hard work, and urged her to rest early tonight, Wu Xiang will announce the decree tomorrow, and there is still something to toss.
Tang Xiaoyu didn't shirk either, after all, Xiaobai hinted obviously, she got on the carriage and didn't go back to Wanjia, she went directly to the small courtyard in the north of her town, when the carriage stopped at the door of the house, it was already the time to hold the lamp, Tang Xiaoyu got off the car, and saw that the man was lonely outside the house, the light of the lantern mottled his face, she didn't know how long he waited, but from the bright eyes in an instant, she could infer that Xiaobai had waited for a long time, Xu was unable to speak, Xiaobai's eyes were always straightforward,
"I'm back. Except for this sentence, Tang Xiaoyu had nothing to say, her mouth was like eating Coptis chinensis, it was so bitter that it was unbearable, reason made her push Xiaobai away, emotionally they got along for ten years and were inextricably entangled, and she was like a ball of noodles that was pulled away left and right.
Man is really a contradictory creature, and it is difficult to unify and inseparable reason and emotion.
Tang Xiaoyu is a mortal, she has seven emotions and six desires, and she will be troubled and sad, but the speed of withdrawing emotions is faster than ordinary people, which does not mean that at this time, her heart is as cold as steel and cannot be shaken.
Xiaobai took the initiative to come up, her eyelashes trembled, her jade-like eyes were flattering and expectant, she was really humble to the dust, Tang Xiaoyu's back molars hurriedly turned her eyes away before her heart softened, she strode up the steps, and pretended to be calm and said, "I'm so tired, go and rest first." ”
She entered the gate, this is their home in the north of the town, Tang Xiaoyu arranges for someone to clean it every five days, and she can come back to live at any time. Everything was the same as the day he left, there was still a gourd spoon hanging by the well, and the dried corn under the eaves had not yet had time to be ground into flour, these things were all done by Xiaobai, trivial and boring, but he was happy to do it.
They used to live with each other and live here on a budget.
And five years in the mountains, every sunrise, every day sunset.
Even if Tang Xiaoyu has no love for Xiaobai, there is family affection.
She is about to explode because of this, but there is no solution, the memory can't come back, it's too early to say anything, Tang Xiaoyu walked quickly through the courtyard, the osmanthus and morning glory in the yard bloomed in season, but the people who fled from the desert had no intention of watching, she just wanted to avoid the two chasing sights behind her, Xiaobai was innocent but not completely innocent, this is the crux of the problem.
"You boiled water?" She pushed open the door and saw the white air bubbling behind the screen, so she guessed that Xiaobai had prepared hot water, and the person who followed her into the room didn't seem to care about Fang Cai's cold face, and was busy preparing things for her like a little bee.
But how could Baili Jihai be indifferent, he was heartbroken, Xiaoyu had not returned at night for more than ten days, he knew that the Cao Gang had a mess, the Qi family had fallen, Yuan Dingbang was injured, the people in Yunyanlou were ready to move, and there was a heroine Ji Yishi to make trouble. He knew that Xiaoyu was very tired, and once the world unfolded in front of her, Baili Jihai could not stand in front of her, sheltering his beloved from the wind and rain, but was injured and recuperating because of stupidity.
She was very busy, what right did she have to complain, he had already helped.
I heated rock sugar pears in the pot for supper, and there was fish head tofu soup for dinner, and the tofu was given by Aunt Wang. He used sign language to say to the person who was in the wide clothes, that person was much lighter, Xiaoyuan's chin was pointed, and Baili Jihai was very distressed, but he also knew that he didn't do anything, which was the biggest help.
But Baili Jihai just couldn't help thinking about her, and he was thinking about it all the time, so he secretly cooked to please Xiaoyu and wanted her to be happy.
"I want to eat stuffed tofu. She said when she gave him the clothes she had changed.
Yes, Baili Jihai remembers that she loves stuffed tofu the most, and she can eat two bowls of rice when she sees this dish, and he made a lot of tricks tonight, with stuffing with green onion pork, green onion fish, lotus root fish, lotus root pork.
I've made four things, all of which you like. ’
"That's good. Tang Xiaoyu smiled at him unconcernedly, turned around and went into the bathtub, the warm water was submerged to her neck, and the skin on her body was wrapped in water, and the feeling of instant pressure release made her hum comfortably.
After soaking for a while, her feet seemed to have stepped on a foreign object, Tang Xiaoyu frowned and scooped things up, it was a gauze-wrapped medicine ball, she leaned over and sniffed it, it was soaked in water for a long time, and she could still smell a familiar smell.
Tang Xiaoyu felt that the medicine bag was very familiar, but he couldn't remember what the name was.
It's like seeing an old classmate at a class reunion after decades away from home, and I feel kind but can't name it.
Xiaobai and the one she met in this world have at least had the same living environment.
Tang Xiaoyu always felt that he was blinded, and he couldn't come up with evidence, Xiaobai's words and actions were crumpled in his daily life, and he couldn't tell the difference at all.
Coincidentally, this time the most common thing to eat, wear, live and travel accidentally provided clues - stuffed tofu, you will know it when you eat the first bite of Tang Xiaoyu, because unlike fish ball noodles and hot and sour fish skin, which you taught Xiaobai by yourself, stuffed tofu Tang Xiaoyu can't do it.
The familiar feeling on her taste buds made her sure that Xiaobai and herself came from the same place, and it could even be said that the two of them had eaten the same taste for a long time.
Boom, Tang Xiaoyu raised his eyes to look at the person who was knocking on the table, and it happened to collide with his affectionate gaze.
'Why don't you eat it?' Even his smile is a gesture of flattery.
Tang Xiaoyu lowered her eyes, the stuffed tofu that was half bitten was still sandwiched on the chopsticks, she shook her head to say that it was okay, and then ate the remaining half of the tofu; the soup seeped into the tofu, the taste was fresh and sweet, Xiaobai put the juice, the Southern Jin Dynasty did not have access to the sea, but because of the water transportation of the Cao Gang, you can get a lot of dried seafood.
Juice instead of oil, familiar recipe ~~
"Xiaobai, you eat too. Tang Xiaoyu decided to change his strategy, if Xiaobai had lived in the same place as him, would he know her in the world.
Twenty-five-year-old Tang Zhen lives overseas, and Tang Xiaoyu deduces that she also lived overseas in the past few years, and the period of memory consolidation of taste should be childhood.
They had eaten a taste for a long time in their childhood, and it was impossible to explain it by coincidence, Tang Xiaoyu looked at Xiaobai without a trace.
His originally cautious expression, after he picked up the vegetables, instantly cleared the clouds and saw the sunny day, but this sunny day did not dare to be brilliant, he held the bowl with eyes like a crescent moon, and the corners of his lips seemed to be upturned, pitiful like a child who looked up and snorted.
Appearance can stimulate motherhood very much, but Tang Xiaoyu did not give birth to any trace of maternal brilliance in her heart, she was sure that she had never given birth to a child, and she did not have the habit of treating men of the same age as sons.
But she did feel guilty.
I still feel sorry.
"I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood today, that Wu Yushi has brought a big trouble. Tang Xiaoyu quickly switched to the mode of small talk in the past, and she would tell Xiaobai some details of the matter.
Xiao Bai blinked, his smile deepened, and he asked with his eyes: Didn't Wu Yushi come to announce the decree, what's wrong with him?
"What else can there be, Ji Yishi caused trouble, I really want to scare her, the love brain is not terrible, the terrible thing is that she still thinks she is educated. Tang Xiaoyu complained about Ji Yishi while eating, full of fortune routines, but the result was that he had a shallow vision, or he didn't know that he was a traitor in his eyes for money.
In a military important place in Ganjia County, the three armies did not move the grain and grass first, and the food security was actually given away.
Why didn't she stick her neck into someone else's noose?
How brain-dead is it to be stupid to the extent of the earth's heart.
"Xiaobai, how did you say she survived until now?" Scooping a spoonful of rock sugar pears into the mouth, the man lying in the courtyard basking in the moon asked.
The moon tonight is a silver platter, very similar to the white porcelain bowl in her hand,
The person who was washing dishes by the well made a gesture, which meant - luck, Tang Xiaoyu also felt that it was luck.
She finished eating the rest of the sugar water: "Oh, let's wash it." She handed the bowl out as a matter of course, and the man took it as a matter of course and put it in the basin to wash it.
"Ha~~ Thinking that Wu Yushi couldn't sleep all night in front of Yutu, I was happy, Xiaobai, stupid people need to pay a price, right. Tang Xiaoyu lay down on the chair again, folded his legs, pillowed his arms, and raised his eyebrows proudly at the moon.
The sound of washing the dishes was still the same, and she stretched out comfortably, that Wu Yushi was afraid that he would not stay in Shuitian Town for a few days, and he would be in a hurry to go back and set things right, or send this handle to the prince.
The old emperor doted on the 12 princes, the mother and son, and wanted to use this matter to make the 12 princes lose their feathers, but the old emperor could not be relied upon, so he could only write a letter to his ministers to admonish him, for fear that the prince's actions would be as fierce as a tiger and would have a counterproductive effect.
As Tang Xiaoyu expected, Wu Xiang did not return to the post house, because he was afraid that the wall would have ears and alarm the concubine's people, so he and Sun Xianling had a night conversation in the county government study.
Shangguan Lingwan left Huan'er and a long entourage to serve outside the study, she walked in with a refreshing tea, her husband and Wu Xiang looked tired, and their eyes were shining.
She said, "You two will talk after you have tea." ”
"Brother and sister, I plan to return to Beijing the day after tomorrow and tell Your Majesty to the death, no matter what, I can't let Dongqi's conspiracy succeed. Wu Xiang said categorically that the decisions he made have always been true to his word.
Shangguan Lingwan frowned, sat down on the chair, she glanced at her husband first, her husband's eyes were indifferent and resolute, it seemed that he also supported Wu Xiang's death.
"Brother Wu, you are the crown prince's person, even if he risks death for the people to directly admonish His Majesty, he will hesitate, and once His Majesty hesitates, he will give the twelve princes a chance to bite back. "The Twelve Princes are as treacherous as his mother, His Majesty often listens to and believes partially, even if he perceives something wrong, it will delay the opportunity, and the prince has only learned to be clumsy in the past three years, and the way of life is to retreat.
Although His Majesty doesn't like the prince, he can't find fault, let alone disobey the ancestral teachings, for fear that the prince will know about the affairs of Ganjia County, and it will backfire for a while, and the result will be self-defeating.
