Merry Jiwei

Dali Temple is always poorly lit. Li Ke is wearing an official uniform, with a light expression and a feeling of being out of the world. It looks like a Bodhisattva sitting in the Palace of the King of Hell. When I think of this, I can't help but draw that picture Picture, couldn't help but chuckle.

Li Ke raised his head, the eyes under his eyebrows looked a little cautious, and said: "Prince Jin is fine, I can pick out two books for you to read."

As soon as I listened to the book, I immediately waved my hand and said: "No, no, my eyes hurt from reading the book yesterday, I have to rest today."

Li Ke smiled slightly, but didn't take it seriously.

When I think about it carefully, Li Ke really has many strengths, but the biggest one is that he never forces others. This strength is somewhat similar to this king.I thought of this, laughed, and said: "It's also true, this king has found a bosom friend."

Li Ke raised his hand to study the ink, and said indifferently: "Is it the one who lost it and found it again?"

I was taken aback for a moment, and then I came back to my senses. I was stunned at first, but then I was overjoyed, and said, "It's the same, are you jealous?"

Li Ke raised his head, his face darkened, and his well-proportioned white jade face was suddenly full of anger. I was a little dazed for a moment, but he said coldly: "Prince Jin, although Li is only a small Tanhua, but he is not a person who can be laughed at by others."

I said repeatedly: "It's the same, I definitely didn't mean to make fun of you."

Li Ke's face sank, and then he seemed to think that it would be so boring to compete with a fool like me. He laughed at himself, and then ignored me. Seeing his anger disappear, I immediately took the ink stick and began to grind the ink for him. .

I rubbed my edge and said, "Also, believe it or not, what I want most in my heart right now is that this moment can last so long. I would rather keep grinding ink while you keep writing."

Li Ke's pen paused, and although he started to write again immediately, I looked at the ink flower condensed on the words, and smiled in my heart.

In the night, Yuan Bao gave me an extra quilt and a stove, I frowned and said, "Do you think your lord is not angry enough to make it so hot?"

Yuan Bao said: "My lord, it's going to be very cold tonight, maybe it will snow, and tomorrow I don't know how many passers-by will freeze to death. Tonight, you need to cover up a little more, so as to prevent the sudden severe cold at night, and you will be sick if you get sick."

I hugged the thick quilt and looked out the window. I suddenly thought of Grandma Huang who lived in the western suburbs. I wonder if her current servants know that it will be cold and snowy tonight.Thinking about it this way, I feel like I have a cat in my heart, scratching my internal organs is uncomfortable.

Maybe something will come just thinking about it, Zhuang Zhongting came unexpectedly again in the middle of the night.

"The Empress Dowager is ill."

I was taken aback, and said: "Why is Grandma Huang sick? Isn't she served by someone?"

Zhuang Zhongting sneered, and said: "Jiwei, I'm sorry for the words your father left you for saying this. The people in the dynasty are warm and cold. Don't you know that the empress dowager is suffering from frostbite. The weather It's so cold, and she lives in such a big house, and she doesn't even have a fire pan! If it wasn't for her personal maid, Qiu Niang, who escaped at night to deliver the letter, we probably wouldn't even know that the Empress Dowager had passed away!"

The Queen Mother was ill, and I slowly sat down by the window, looking at the warm room, thinking of an old lady shivering in a big cold room, my heart tightened for a while.I raised my hand and said, "You let me think, you let me think."

Zhuang Zhongting said angrily: "Jiwei, you still want to think about it?! When you think about it, I'm afraid the Queen Mother will die too!"

I said weakly: "If you want to save the Queen Mother, you will undoubtedly have to pull out Zixun's teeth, no matter what, think carefully, otherwise you may be caught in a trap."

Zhuang Zhongting sneered, and said, "Jiwei, how long are you going to use this excuse to prevaricate me? I can tell you that according to the palace secret report, Zixun has no interest in government affairs at all recently, and there has been a secret decree to form a cabinet that can be temporarily regent. , and sent people to the south of the Yangtze River several times, it seems that his wandering mind is much bigger than others."

Zi Xun was going to Jiangnan, I was overjoyed, my second brother did me a favor after all, at this time, who else could lure this smiling tiger to Jiangnan besides him?I stood up abruptly and said, "Okay, let's find an appropriate time to do it."

Seeing that I finally let go, Zhuang Zhongting was overjoyed, he choked up a little and said: "The rise and fall of the Yuan family is all up to you, Jiwei."

After hearing this, I sighed and said, "Cousin, you still think of me as a cynical prince. What I want to save is only my grandma, not a big shot to revitalize the Yuan family."

Zhuang Zhongting also sighed slightly, and said: "Jiwei, you always want to stay out of things, you are always involved in it, and you always want to do things that are insincere. Perhaps in the entire Xixia Dynasty, the most unfree is the one who seems to be the most free. You are free. Apologies, send Wei."

I looked up at him and smiled, and said, "In this world, who can really be alone?!" The two of them looked at each other like this, as if they had returned to their childhood, the moment when they swore each other under the willow tree in the pond, full of mutual understanding and trust .

I turned my head and said: "My house is also very complicated. If it is not necessary, cousin, please don't come here. I will leave a signal for you to meet if something happens."

Zhuang Zhongting didn't say anything for a long time, I turned around, only to find that he had left at some point, and there was only a red light from the charcoal fire in the room, where there was no trace of him, I smiled and sighed softly.There are some people in this world who, if they miss it once, will miss it for life. Some people miss it many times, but they can finally meet at the starting point. Probably this is fate.

Zhuang Zhongting and I have never been a destined couple.

Although I have no real power, I have the title of General of the Three Cavalry Battalion. The next day, I asked Yuan Bao to go to Deyue Tower to buy some high-quality bamboo leaf greens.When the soldiers of the camp saw me, they were all shocked. Thinking about it, I had been their general for five years, and I only showed up once. , I was more shocked than surprised.

When I was away, the deputy commander Feng had always been in charge. Now it seems that a new deputy general has come. Speaking of this deputy general, he is a famous celebrity in front of Zi Xun. Gu Dongqing who followed him until he rebelled.

I saw the stupefied look on his face, no wonder he followed the unarmed Zi Xun to seek rebellion, but he was stunned, nine out of ten were lucky, and he really made him the founding minister.Gu Dongqing's literacy is limited, and he has no military achievements. If Zi Xun wants to promote him to a certain position, he may not be able to sit still.So Zixun let him come to my military camp, which I don't care about. First, he can coerce the last army of the Yuan family in Ming Dynasty. Second, he can come here to learn something. , can be said to serve multiple purposes.

Gu Dongqing is no stranger to me, she was enthusiastic when she saw me, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness, you are finally here, I have been waiting for you to invite me to a banquet!"

I laughed and pointed to the carriageway behind me: "This is not here."

Gu Dongqing ran over to pick out an altar, slapped away the sealing mud on it, sniffed it, and said with a happy face: "Your Highness, this is the best bamboo leaf green!"

"You have a good mouth, you kid." I laughed and cursed, and when he yelled, some soldiers who were still cautious just now didn't hold back, and ran over to pick a pot. Suddenly, my camp was crowded. It became a reception.

Frankly speaking, I love these soldiers far more than those sour Confucians in the court. They like it when they like it, and hate it when they hate it.I sighed slightly, Gu Dongqing came over with a bowl of good wine, and said: "Your Highness, come, Dongqing will drink with you."

I held up a bowl of wine and drank it with him, only to hear Gu Dongqing smile and say: "Your Highness, to be honest, among so many princes, I like you the most."

I was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Why does Dongqing love me so much?"

Gu Dongqing said: "Your Highness the Nineteenth, you have many advantages, but I like you the most. One is one, and the other is two. It is true and real."

I listened, raised the bowl and drank another bowl of wine, and said: "Your Highness Nineteenth, I will drink this bowl of wine to the brim, and I should thank you, Dongqing, for your appreciation."

"Damn it!" Gu Dongqing naturally and boldly drank another cup.

The second cart of Zhuyeqing was finished, I seemed to be in high spirits, and said with a smile: "Come on, bring me the second cart of wine."

As soon as I finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers in the big tent, I raised my wine bowl and said, "You can't be full with food, but you can't be full with this wine!"

All the officers and men nodded their heads again and again and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the prince to be a hero in wine."

I laughed out loud when I heard it. At first everyone didn't think anything of it, but they felt that I hadn't stopped laughing for a long time, so they all looked at me in surprise, and I said with tears in my eyes: "What heroes are you talking about? Who doesn't know that I, Prince Jin, is just an empty shell with a false name, and now that the Yuan family has exhausted its strength, this Prince Jin is more than just a false name, he is simply a joke in the eyes of others..."

Yu Fei quickly stood up and supported me, saying: "My lord, you are drunk."

I pushed him away and drank another bowl of wine, pointed to God, and said, "God, if you don't make me a royal, I will be born a hero and die a ghost!"

Yuan Bao stood next to him with tears in his eyes, and said, "My lord, if you are angry with others, you will humiliate yourself no matter what you do!"

Gu Dongqing smashed the wine bowl to the side, and said: "Which bastard is this, His Highness is mad at you."

Yuan Bao gritted his teeth halfway and said: "The warlord, please speak in a low voice. He is the Prince Hui of the Zi Clan, a well-meaning celebrity prince, so you can't offend him."

When Gu Dongqing heard this, he opened his mouth and spit, and said, "Damn, it turned out to be that old bastard. I knew he was not a thing."

Yuan Bao said: "He bullied the lord, but now he has no name but in broad daylight, he just snatched away the banquet that the lord ordered, and made my lord lose face in front of his friends. Mr. Gu is an old acquaintance of my lord, you should know What a righteous person my prince is!"

Gu Dongqing became alcoholic, jumped up and down in anger, and said, "It's natural, brother said that the only person with character in the Yuan family is the Nineteenth Highness!"

I don't want Zixun to love me so much behind my back, seeing this stunned man with green face and red ears, he is obviously about to go crazy with alcohol.

Yuan Bao said: "My lord just wanted to send some winter clothes to the Empress Dowager's grandma, who knew that he sent his servants to humiliate my lord!"

Gu Dongqing seemed to be a little annoyed when he heard the words "empress dowager", and after a moment of embarrassment, he said: "My lord, the matter about the empress dowager can't help you. But the king of Hui bullied you so much, and where did he put our third battalion of cavalry?" ?! Isn’t this disrespecting us?”

All the soldiers had already drank too much wine, they all pouted their necks and said yes, and Yu Fei appeased them up and down, but these soldiers' blood was rising, so how could they easily suppress it.

I gritted my teeth and said: "Gu Dongqing is right, I, Yuanying, have a bad reputation, and I can be humiliated by others, but how can this king involve the loyal and long-term followers of me to suffer this humiliation?! Let's give King Hui a wink." Look!"

All the generals threw down their wine bowls together and said: "But according to the prince's order!"

Yu Fei's face was ashen, but his face was helpless, Gu Dongqing laughed loudly and said, "I know that King Hui will visit the hunting grounds in the western suburbs every [-]th day of the Lunar New Year, and we will beat him with a sap!"

I saw Gu Dongqing jumping up and down, more energetic than me, as if he didn't know that what he was doing was something that might lose his head, and acted on the basis of loyalty, I sighed in my heart, no wonder Zi Xun, who is so deep in the city, would also Really love this kid.

I seemed to hesitate for a moment, then nodded, and said, "It's very good, and it won't implicate all the soldiers. We also let it go."

Yu Fei interrupted hastily from the side: "You must wear black clothes and cover your face!"

When I heard it, I said, "Good idea." Yu Fei was tongue-tied, as if deeply regretting what he had said just now, he seemed not to want to get involved in the right and wrong, but now he acted like a mastermind. Secretly amused, but patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'll see you in the western suburbs in three days."

I actually drank a little too much, and my walking was unsteady, fortunately Yuan Bao got out of the car early, Gu Dongqing and all the soldiers sent me out of the door.

No matter how far the carriage drove, they were still standing under the forest when I was young. I not only sighed, but said: "Yuanbao, do I take away all the breath I have accumulated in the past?"

Yuan Bao said: "My lord, you are only using them for a while, just this once, if you change to other lords, I don't know how many times you have used them..."

I smiled wryly, it's easier to solve here, but what's Li Ke's arrangement?

Can he think that I only used him once and forgive me easily.

It is precisely because I have a guilty conscience that I can't open my mouth to Li Ke, but since everything is ready, I only owe him the wind, no matter how difficult it is for me to open my mouth, I can only open my mouth.I looked at Li Ke's straight and handsome eyebrows, and thought about meeting him for the first time in a trance, thinking that although his temperament was completely different from Zi Shiwei's, these eyebrows were really similar.It's just that this pair of handsome black eyebrows naturally complement each other on Li Kebai's jade-like face, but on Zi Shiwei's sleepy, half-awake, impoverished face, it's a bit of a wrong marriage. The feeling of a good person.

"The weather is fine today," I said.

"Yesterday was not bad." Li Ke said indifferently, he just has this kind of cold humor, which makes people laugh, but he can always keep his face. It is no wonder that he has been a storyteller.

Usually, I would have been laughing so hard, but today I couldn't laugh no matter what. After a long hesitation, I said, "Also, do you think there are five elements in human relations, which one comes first and which one comes last?"

Li Ke smiled and said: "Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness, benevolence is naturally the first, and heaven and earth are kings, relatives and teachers, and heaven is the first!"

"What a benevolence is the leader!" I continued: "It's also the same. If you have an old woman who is nearly eighty years old and suffers from cold and starvation, but you are rich and well-clothed every day, do you think this is called benevolence?"

Li Ke said indifferently: "You talked for a long time, so it turned out that you wanted to see the empress dowager."

I lowered my head and said, "It's the same, I only have your way."

"Is this also the reason why you have spent more than a year in my Dali Temple?"

I quickly raised my head and said, "Li Ke, don't doubt me, this matter has nothing to do with that matter at all."

But Li Ke raised his eyebrows and said: "Yuanying, you also know that the ruler of heaven and earth is a parent and teacher. Before a ruler is a relative, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness are preceded by righteousness. Righteousness precedes propriety. You want to achieve your own benevolence, but you want me to be a traitor. My dear, you treat me so well!"

I was anxious to get angry, but I couldn't get my mouth in. Don't look at my eloquence, but it's crooked words and sophistry. If I really want to talk about eloquence, I don't know that Li Ke will be angry. Never thought he was furious.

I was kicked out of the Dali Temple all the way, and I was so embarrassed that I had no choice but to shout through the door: "It's the same, it's the same, my heart for you is true!"

I yelled like this, and I didn't care about my face anymore. For a moment, I was really afraid that Li Ke would break up with me and never see each other again.

In such a rush, coupled with Grandma Huang's affairs not being settled, at night I developed a high fever, became very ill, and there was no end of tea. Yuan Bao didn't know if it was a blessing to his soul, so he hurriedly knocked on Li Ke's door.

I originally thought that Li Ke would not come, but I didn't know that after the third watch, he had already sat in front of my bed. My heart was filled with sorrow and joy, and I held his hand and said, "It's also the same, if my heart for you was a little complicated before... Everything is clean from now on, I only have you left, only you, and I will live and die with you.”

Li Ke was silent for a while, then turned to hold my hand and said: "Jiwei, the days to come will be long, there are some things that don't need to be said often."

I was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "You are right, our happy days are still to come."

But as soon as Li Ke left, I already had the energy to get up and drink porridge, Yuan Bao muttered, "My lord, your singing skills are getting better and better, just now even Yuan Bao thought you were real."

I just smiled and said, "Yuanbao, this is your prince's last good performance, it must be the grand finale."

If I really have to help the Yuan family rescue Grandma Huang, even if Zi Xun thinks about the kindness I did to my second brother back then and doesn't chase me down, I'm afraid I, the King of Jin, won't be able to do this any longer, thinking of Li Ke, I will die I couldn't help feeling guilty about his official career.Once I left this time, I didn’t come back again, but I couldn’t even tell Yuan Bao about this. After seeing him busy, I suddenly smiled and said, “Yuan Bao, you should change your name to Qiushou from now on!”

Yuan Bao frowned and said, "Your Majesty, Yuan Bao is Yuan Bao. Isn't it necessary to exchange Yuan Bao for the autumn harvest?"

I let out a long sigh and said with a smile: "You don't know, the autumn harvest is not only the crops, but also the satisfaction of waiting, which cannot be exchanged for no amount of ingots."

Yuan Bao blushed, and said: "My family had a good harvest back then, and my autumn harvest was sold into the palace and exchanged for Yuan Bao. After winning the prince, you should go to bed earlier, and don't always think about what you have and what you don't have."

I smiled slightly and said, "Yuan Bao, if I am not the lord, and you are not Yuan Bao, what do you think the two of us would be?!"

Yuan Bao tilted his head to think about it, and said with a smile, "Brother!"

The circles of my eyes were slightly wet, and I said: "Brothers have this life and no future life, we will sworn brothers!"

Yuan Bao jumped up in fright, and said, "My lord, you are crazy again, why do you want me to be your brother?"

Ben Wang hesitated, and said: "Why, when my brother wronged you."

Yuan Bao said: "Your brothers are not banned or are on the run. What crime did I do to become brothers with you, the prince?!"

This dog slave, I got angry and picked up the porridge bowl and threw it at him. Yuan Bao had already fled away with my sweaty quilt on his back.

Li Ke agreed to me, but he didn't say when, but Gu Dongqing was very active in the matter of knocking on King Hui's sap. In just a few days, he got the route that King Hui traveled and the list of generals he brought. up.I looked at the long list, sighed, and said, "Zi Yun, Zi Yun, I wrong you to be my king's ladder."

Zi Shiwei only disappeared for two days and then reappeared, and he loves to wait for me on the way to Dali Temple. This guy is so thick-skinned that even this king can only marvel at him, and don't take him for granted. There are too many ways, the only way is to detour this way today, and detour that way tomorrow.

However, in just a few days, Li Ke seemed to have lost a lot of weight. I felt more and more guilty. If it was even possible, I wish I could let it go. I can't even say it.

Li saw me, but remained the same, neither particularly happy nor unhappy, calmly, he finished flipping through the case file in front of him, and said, "Tomorrow, I'll go and take notes for the former empress dowager!"

He spoke so plainly that I almost didn't hear him clearly. After he had finished speaking for a while, I seemed to suddenly come to my senses. I grabbed his hand and said, "It's also...you, what you mean..."

Li Ke sighed slightly, I was overjoyed, grabbed his hand and said: "Yes, I thank you very much, I swear I owe you, I will pay it back with my life."

Li Ke just smiled lightly, and said: "You just love to swear, you need to know that if you make too many vows, you can't keep them, and you will make people gray with white hair."

"It can be fulfilled, it can be fulfilled, I swear...I don't swear, no, no, I swear." My tongue was almost tied, but Li Ke suddenly changed the subject, saying: "At noon, let's go out for dinner !"

"Okay!" I smiled and said, "Send me a treat, where do you want to go?"

In fact, Li Ke doesn't like to show up in public with me very much. Yu Gong doesn't want to be suspected of forming a party, and Yu privately doesn't like others to gossip about him and me behind his back.It doesn't matter if the king has a thick skin, but gossip is too nasty, but it's hard for him to bear it.

"Get the Moon Tower!" Li Ke thought for a while.

I smiled slightly, we had a few meals in total, but all of them were in Deyue Tower.

Buildings close to the water first get the moon, and the moon tower is naturally built by the lake. After eating, I will go to the lake.But we had just passed Mingjing Lane where Dali Temple is located, when we saw Zi Shiwei approaching.I was a little flustered in my heart, but I immediately calmed down, and when I saw Zi Shiwei, I smiled and said, "Hey, isn't this Hu Shidu? Coincidentally, you didn't enter the palace today?"

Zi Shiwei didn't speak, but suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled me away from Li Ke. I was caught off guard, and naturally he was dragged to my side all of a sudden.I was anxious and panicked, fearing that Li Ke would have other thoughts, so I retreated calmly like last time.

I brushed Zi Shiwei's hand away, and said, "Hu Shidu, if you have something to say, please speak."

But Li Ke bowed to Zi Shiwei very politely, and said, "Li can see Sect Master Zi."

Zi Shiwei raised his pair of long black eyebrows, and said, "I took him away, it's nothing, so don't see each other in the future."

I suddenly became angry, sneered, and said, "Hu Shidu, who are you as my king?"

Zi Shiwei turned his head and glanced at me, his expression was also very ugly, he said: "Jiwei, let's go to Jiangnan!"

I felt sad at that moment, but there was no expression on my face. I said lightly: "Hu Bugui, even if I want to go to the south of the Yangtze River, you will not be the one I want to go with in my heart. You have been pestering me again and again, presumably I thought I would never forget my old love for you, but today I will tell you honestly, Hu Bugui, I have no feelings or love for you. Our fate stopped here three years ago, and it will always end here. "

Zi Shiwei said after a long time: "Jiwei, maybe I didn't understand until now that being with you is a kind of blessing. Even though I am an unlucky person, I want you to be happy...don't get hurt anymore...this feeling..."

I lightly interjected and said, "I find this kind of mood quite ridiculous, because you are the one who hurt me the most, and now I am feeling happy, but you come to say that you are concerned about whether I will be hurt, the only thing I can think of Two words are -- ridiculous."

Zi Shiwei raised his head, pointed at Li Ke behind me and said, "Jiwei, Li is Zixun's man."
