Chapter 617 This is not an accident...
Hearing what he said, Pei Xingyuan immediately raised his head and thought about it, but before he could recall anything, he came to his senses first and said happily: " It’s really like this!”
Seeing him like this, Shen Wuzheng pursed his lips.
But the next moment, after thinking about it carefully, Pei Xingyuan frowned again and said with a grimace: "But, even if this is the case, what on earth is going on? There is no way there really is a book, Tell her everything that will happen in the future? Isn’t that a heavenly book? Isn’t that okay?”
Shen Wuzheng smiled and shook his head: “How is that possible?” br>
As he said that, a cold yet sharp light flashed across his eyes, and he said: "Even if he is really a god -"
Pei Xingyuan didn't hear clearly and just looked at him: "What?"
Shen Wuzheng waved his hand gently, thought about it again, and then said seriously: "What I just said was just an analogy. I don't believe that there is really any ability in this world, or that some heavenly book can predict the future five hundred years ago. Know for five hundred years. Everything is done by people."
"..."
"Although I haven't figured out how she knows these things yet, I dare. To be sure, she didn’t predict what would happen in the future, she just knew some things very bluntly, but once these things changed, or once she couldn’t remember, there was nothing she could do.”
"..."
"That is what Yu Wenye said, knowledge and wisdom are two different things."
"Knowledge and wisdom?"
Pei Xingyuan just felt that he He seemed to understand a little bit, but the last sentence confused him again. Shen Wuzheng turned to look at him and said with a smile: "To be precise, things are controllable, but people are not."
"..."
"When she cannot remember, she does not have the ability to predict the future; when the development of the situation does not match her memory, her ability will not be of much use."
Hearing what he said, Pei Xingyuan Gradually, I came back to my senses.
said: "So, in the final analysis - everything depends on man-made efforts."
Shen Wuzheng said: "Yes, everything depends on man-made efforts."
"..."
"The fall of Taiyuan this time is more complicated than we expected. So, as mentioned before, if the opponent thinks deeply, we have to think deeper; if the opponent takes ten steps, we have to take eleven steps. That's the only way , to win."
"...That's right."
Pei Xingyuan said softly. He laughed and said: "Just like this time, it seems that neither the King of Han nor Yu Mingyue expected that Feng Chen would interfere with them in the matter of the emperor's abdication. So the position of the prince is still There is a fight."
"..."
When he mentioned this, Shen Wuzheng's eyes dimmed slightly.
Although he usually had happiness and anger on his face, his true thoughts were rarely shown on his face, but this time, Pei Xingyuan clearly felt his unhappiness. After thinking about it more carefully, he understood it somewhat.
He whispered: "Why, are you angry about this?"
"..."
"But Feng Chen is now——"
“No need to say it,”
Shen Wuzheng waved his hand lightly, interrupting his words, then turned back and looked at the towering shadow of the Nine-layer Third Hall under the moonlight. He was silent for a long time before saying: "Let's go..."
say After that, he turned around and left.
Pei Xingyuan also looked back at him. Although they were already some distance away from the palace at this time, he had an inexplicable feeling that the direction Shen Wuzheng was looking just now must be Qianqiu Palace, but he didn't know this. For a moment, what should the scene look like over there at Qianqiu Palace.
Speaking of which, no one thought that Yu Wenye would use such a method to fight for the last time.
It’s just that a good wife and a beautiful concubine have all the blessings and wisdom in the world, but judging from the subtle and somewhat cold atmosphere between Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi today. , Pei Xingyuan vaguely felt that maybe, that was not necessarily a blessing.
But——
No matter how lucky I am, I already have a wife and a concubine. When I look back at myself, my hands are empty, and I don’t even have anyone to care about. Pei Xingyuan couldn't help but laughed bitterly, and felt that he was being too pretentious. After all, the major issue in front of him had not been resolved yet, so he had no time to think about it, so he immediately turned around and chased after him -
"Wuzheng, Wait for me!"
As the two people left, the lively excitement in the world disappeared like an ebbing tide in the tall shadow of the Nine Layers and Three Halls. In the end, there was a deep silence.
There was only some noise in the brightly lit Qianqiu Palace.
After bidding farewell to Su Qinglan, Shang Ruyi followed Yu Wenyuan's instructions and returned directly to Qianqiu Palace. However, even if he went back, he would not be able to rest immediately. After all, based on the current situation of the Battle of Taiyuan, and from this situation, Judging from the deduced battle situation, and even her inexplicable heart palpitations, this battle was not easy to fight, and it could not end so easily.
So, the luggage you carry cannot be too simple.
After returning to Qianqiu Palace, she immediately ordered Tu Sheer and the others to pack their clothes. Seeing that the weather was about to get cold, she even took out some thick clothes that had been packed at the bottom of the box.
But there is another big trouble, that is Tusheer.
As Shang Ruyi's personal maid, she naturally follows Shang Ruyi wherever he goes. The last time she fought in Fufeng was because Shang Ruyi gave her another task, so she was willing to stay, but this time Without any other instructions, she insisted on following him to Taiyuan, but Shang Ruyi only planned to take Wuxue with him.
Regardless of her feelings, she couldn't trust Tu Sheer to the battlefield. Although Wuxue was young, he had such skills, and he might be able to come in handy when necessary.
So, after she had been persuading her earnestly for a long time, Tu Sheer saw that there was really no other way, so she could only accept it aggrievedly.
Not willing to give in, he took Wuxue aside and nagged him for a long time.
Listening to them packing their luggage in the inner hall, they were saying this, giving orders and responding to each other. Shang Ruyi sat outside and smiled and shook his head. He saw Chang Wan bringing in some more refreshments - although just now We were at a banquet, but we only had one glass of wine. There was no time to take a bite of the food and wine on the table when the news came. When I came back after discussing those things, I realized that I was very hungry.
Shang Ruyi sat down and started eating.
While she was eating, she listened to Tu Sheer's nagging voice outside. She couldn't help but smile and said to Chang Wan: "After we leave, you will be left here. Keep an eye on She'er and don't let her go out." "Cause trouble."
Chang Wan smiled and said: "Princess, please don't worry. In fact, She I usually speak and act very calmly, but when I am around the princess, I sometimes talk nonsense because I am worried about the princess and care about her. Understand her."
Chang Wan was startled and lowered his head with a smile.
Shang Ruyi smiled and ate another piece of shortbread with tea. Although he was not completely full, it was late at night after all. If he ate too much and stopped eating, he would not be able to fall asleep for a while, so After taking another sip of tea, he went over to wash his hands.
When Chang Wan saw there were two pieces of shortbread left on the plate, he said, "Did your servant put these away?"
Shang Ruyi immediately said, "No need."
"Huh?"
"Wait for him in a while - wait for King Qin to come back, and then eat."
When Chang Wan heard this, he immediately understood.
Even Princess Qin didn't have enough to eat, and she was definitely not full when King Qin had such a big meal. No wonder she asked for so much when he just ordered her to go to the imperial dining room. It was enough for two people. It turned out that she wanted it for King Qin on purpose.
Chang Wan pursed her lips and said softly: "I understand, slave."
Although she did not smile, Shang Ruyi was still a little embarrassed and could only pretend not to care and turned around and left. Go to the window, open the window and look outside.
The surroundings were already dark.
But looking further to the west, the dark sky was slightly illuminated by the lights. Could it be that they were still discussing the dispatch of troops in Baifu Hall?
No, Baifu Hall is much further away.
Over there, it seems to be——
Shang Ruyi was just thinking when a burst of footsteps suddenly came from outside. It seemed that someone was coming to Qianqiu Palace. Shang Ruyi immediately looked back for a long time. After one glance at Wan, Chang Wan didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly went out to greet him.
In the night, the sound of her walking outside the door was heard, as if she whispered something to the visitor.
At this time, Tu Sheer had made it clear to Wuxue and had almost packed his luggage. He was walking out of the inner hall, looked at the sky outside, and said softly: "Princess, it's so late. Why haven't you come back yet? You are leaving at dawn tomorrow, and you won't be able to sleep for a while tonight."
"..."
Shang Ruyi said nothing, just leaned against the window and listened to the sounds outside.
For some reason, she vaguely felt that it should be news about Yu Wenye...
At this moment, Chang Wan walked in from outside.
There were only two lamps lit in the hall, and the light was not bright. When she walked in from the outside, her face seemed to be stained with a bit of the gloom of the night, and even her eyebrows had a bit of gloom. He walked until he was in front of Shang Ruyi, then lowered his head and said softly: "Princess..."
Tu Sheer looked at her: "What are you doing out there? Is anyone coming?"
Chang Wan nodded and looked at Shang Ruyi carefully, seeing that she didn't say a word and just sat quietly. , said softly: "Yes, it is Pan Qing, the maid of Jin Yuyuan."
"Pan Qing? She is not serving the Duke—— "
Tu Sheer was startled, glanced at Shang Ruyi again, swallowed what he said, and whispered unconsciously: "What is she here for?"
Chang Wan looked again. He glanced at Shang Ruyi and said softly: "She, she said—His Royal Highness King Qin went to Jinyu Garden."
"..." "She came here to report, Princess, please rest early."
"What?!"
Tu Sheer's voice suddenly It was a few degrees higher. In such a quiet night, the whole Qianqiu Palace seemed to shake. Wuxue from the inner hall hurriedly walked out and looked at them carefully, especially those sitting by the window, who seemed to be motionless. At this time, Shang Ruyi didn't even have the slightest expression on his face.
Even if there was a lamp lit in front of her, the flickering light could not illuminate her eyes at all.
Those originally bright eyes were now dark and dull.
Tusheer, who had exclaimed at first, came to his senses at this time, hurriedly covered his mouth, and looked down at Shang Ruyi. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it. Her face was so anxious that she couldn't help but clenched her hands into fists, but Chang Wan on one side stretched out her hand and gently held her down.
The three girls just quietly surrounded Shang Ruyi.
I don’t know how long it took, but Shang Ruyi finally moved.
But he raised his head, with a calm smile on his face, as if nothing had happened. He glanced at them respectively, and then said with a smile: "You all, go down and rest."
"..."
"Especially Wuxue, we have to leave early tomorrow morning. Don't get up late."
"..."
Wuxue doesn't know what to do. What should I do, but I also knew that I should be obedient, so I responded softly, turned around and left.
Tu Sheer said: "Princess, I——"
Shang Ruyi looked at her with a smile and said: "Fortunately, Chang Wan just said that you are usually very prudent in doing things and will not make mistakes. Look, just a little news about Jin Yuyuan makes you scream like a ghost." Damn it, if something big happens, what will you do?"
"..."
"These days, while we are away, you should practice your courage."
"Princess..."
Tusher was speechless, only feeling that It feels uncomfortable and aggrieved, but why does Shang Ruyi not care when he is already like this?
Does she really not care?
She subconsciously wanted to ask - after all, the young lady who had been on the top of her heart since she was a child, the current Princess Qin, no matter how her identity changed, was still on the top of her heart, and she didn't want to Seeing Shang Ruyi suffer any pain, he is not willing to suffer.
Tu Sheer whispered: "Miss..."
Shang Ruyi looked at her again, smiling, even patiently, but when he spoke, his voice seemed to be stained with a little night dew. The wetness made me feel a little hoarse. Come: "Be obedient, go down."
Tu Sheer wanted to be obedient, but was really reluctant to leave. Finally, Chang Wan on the side grabbed her wrist, and with a little more strength, she finally pulled her away. He dragged him out of Qianqiu Palace in three steps.
In the distance, you can still hear her worried sigh and a low, unwilling muttering.
And until their footsteps were far away and could no longer be heard, Shang Ruyi still maintained the same posture as before, as if he had lost the strength to move, sitting there quietly and motionless.
After a long time, she took a deep breath and allowed herself to move.
The whole body seemed to be frozen.
This is not a surprise.
In fact, from the moment she accepted her identity, the destiny in front of her, and the glory brought by the Nine Layers and Three Palaces, she had already expected that this day, this moment would come.
I just didn’t expect that it would be today, at this moment.
However, it is really not a surprise. After all, she had already mentioned to Yuwen Ye yesterday that she asked him to go to Jinyu Garden to accompany Chu Ruoyan. It was just because yesterday was the first day they moved into the palace. Yuwen As the King of Qin, Ye still stayed with Princess Qin. No matter what, he had given her enough face and made their relationship clear to everyone.
So today, with the battle coming soon, it was indeed right for him to go see Chu Ruoyan.
“It should be...”
As if listening to the voice in his heart, and as if he was convincing himself, Shang Ruyi murmured these three words over and over again, finally finding some comfort from these three words, and regaining some strength, slowly Turning around, I looked out the window at the imperfect moon in the dark sky.
Sure enough, a person and a moon are hardly two circles.
Only one or two raindrops fell gently on the moonlit windowsill.
|
Under the same moonlight, at this time, Su Qinglan finally arrived home.
Although her mother was one of the few female officials serving in the imperial court, her salary was not large and her family was not well-off, so she could only live in Yong'anfang, which was far away from the palace. An ordinary bungalow was her residence.
The neighbors here are also ordinary people who don't have late-night feasts, so when she returned home, the surroundings were dark, except for wild dogs fighting in a few alleys far and near, making whining noises. sound.
What is left is the sound of her own footsteps echoing gently on the long silent street.
Usually she rarely came home so late, but today she couldn't help but feel a little frightened. Seeing that her home was in front of her, she finally regained her composure after thinking about it all the way, so she couldn't help but speed up her pace. He was about to walk forward, but when he was still some distance away from the door of his home, he suddenly stopped.
Moreover, breathing is also suffocating!
Because she suddenly found a tall figure standing at the door of her house, leaning against the door, as if waiting for something.
Who is that?
What to do! ?
She was frightened and frightened, and subconsciously wanted to step back. But late at night, if she didn't go home, where could she go? So I can only move forward, but I can't move forward with heavy steps.
Just when she was in a dilemma, the tall figure moved and seemed to raise its head.
The faint moonlight suddenly illuminated that handsome face, especially a pair of bright eyes that seemed brighter than the moonlight when he saw her. Then he immediately straightened up and showed a happy smile to Su Qinglan. meaning.
"You're back."
"...!"
Su Qinglan's breath was suffocated again.
This voice is——
She subconsciously took two steps forward. The moonlight seemed to respond to her thoughts. It was a little brighter at this time, which also allowed her to see more clearly. The figure in front of her was none other than Jiang Wei!
“You——”
She was shocked again, with a clear sense of joy in her surprise. Just as she was about to say something, she immediately bit her lower lip.
Today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year!
It was the day she promised to go to his house before!
Because she suddenly received the imperial edict of a reward today, she immediately went to the palace to thank him, and then went to the Baifu Hall for a banquet. In the rush, she forgot to make an appointment with him. It was not until Princess Qin asked about today when she left the palace that she suddenly thought of it. .
However, when she thought about breaking the appointment, she was afraid that Jiang Wei would also be disappointed in her and would not come to see her again.
Unexpectedly, he found her home!
Su Qinglan was ashamed and nervous, and could not speak for a while, but Jiang Wei had slowly walked up to her, looked down at her for a while, then smiled and said: "You It’s good to be back safely.”
Su Qinglan looked at him: “You——”
Jiang Wei smiled and said: "I saw that you didn't come today, and I was worried that something happened to you, so I went to the city to inquire for a long time, and finally found this place. They said that you went to the palace to do something. I don't know what happened, so I have been here all the time. Waiting for you.”
“… ..."
"I'm relieved to see you come back okay."
After that, he smiled at Su Qinglan: "It's late at night, you should go home and rest. Let’s go.”
He turned around and left.
But just when he was about to take a step, a soft voice suddenly sounded behind him, but it seemed to have an uncontrollable trembling sound -
"You, wait."
Jiang Wei immediately stopped and looked back at her, only to see Su Qinglan say softly: "You are going out on business in two days, right?"
"Yes."< br>
“Bon voyage.”
"Yes."
"Come back soon."
"..."
"Waiting for you to come back," Su Qinglan was silent for a while, and finally seemed to make up her mind. Determined and serious, he said: "I will go to your house again."
"...!"
Jiang Tai's eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked at Su Qinglan with surprise, but he didn't say anything more. He was silent for a long time, then smiled and nodded solemnly: "It's a deal."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
