The first work of the imperial prison

The imperial court's policy cannot be played lightly. Even if it is decided to exchange this time, it is definitely not a compromise with nowhere to go.

Just like what he said to the Eight Kings in Zhao Prison, Dazhao doesn’t want to talk because he doesn’t want to talk. If he wants to talk, there are too many ways to occupy the commanding heights. Therefore, at this moment, the person most important to you in Wala is in my hands, and your border security is still threatened by me. You should be afraid, not me.

As for scaring the Hachioji in the cell, such as 'find someone to replace him', they were just for scaring, and it was not easy to operate.

The Eighth Prince has too many eyes and is too ruthless. The things he has done and the orders he has given over the years are more than a hundred, and what he explained is only one ten-thousandth, and more =] It is impossible to tell Jin Yiwei about the details, on my side If you want to make it up, you can't make it so detailed and true, and not everyone in this organization has been captured, but it is a huge hidden danger. I really sent spies to Wala to replace the eighth prince. Things can cause harm to others, but one's own safety cannot be guaranteed.

Once discovered, the consequences are very serious.

General An and the emperor wanted to make their family and country stronger and never be ruled by Oirats, but the situation is not critical at this moment, and there is no need to take this risk.

And who said that the situation would be unfavorable to Dazhao when the Eighth Prince returned?

King Oara is old, and the nine kings and uncles are strong and covetous. The eighth prince has only a small team of his own in Dazhao, and has no power in the mainland. Even the son of King Oara may not be able to stand up immediately.

It is true that Wala has a heart for Dazhao, but the matter of closing the door at home must be cleared up, right?Ye Baiting didn't believe that the Eighth Prince, who was full of heart and soul, would have several rounds of 'enthusiasm communication' with Uncle Ninth Prince.

When Wala settles his family's affairs, Dazhao has already recuperated, the soldiers and generals have all food and grass, and General An, the god of war, are they afraid that they will not be able to plunder and invade the south?

and also……

There are doctors in the prison.

After Qiu Yiqing took charge of Beizhen Fusi, his rule was very strict, not to mention the prisoners, Jinyiwei even had a special discipline booklet, but if anyone violated it, he would be punished. The torture room is busy, and doctors need more time , He specially invited experienced old doctors who retired from the imperial hospital to come over in case of emergency. Ye Baiting was once seen by these gray-bearded grandfathers.

The eighth prince hadn't revealed his identity, and when he was still a blue bird, the old doctor felt his pulse. He might not know it himself, but he only thought that the Fusi of Beizhen showed mercy and gave the prisoners the peace pulse. Ye Baiting and Qiu Suqing But I knew it very well. The old doctor told them carefully when he came out. This person has many eyes, but he really thinks too much of himself. Thinking hurts the spleen, anger hurts the liver, worries the lungs, and fears hurting the kidneys. The situation is not good, he came to the prison too early, he didn't see the light of day, it was common for him to be injured and sick, and his body foundation was also ruined. thing……

In short, the eighth prince is not in good health, which may affect his life expectancy. Looking forward, there must be a battle between him and Uncle Wala Nine Kings. If he loses, okay, the enemy after Dazhao will be Uncle Nine Kings. , if he wins... the throne probably won't last long, maybe he will find a way to keep a son, and then the young master will inherit the throne, with strong ministers at his side, and another round of games will begin.

No matter what, Dazhao really doesn’t lose at all by exchanging the eighth prince back, but of course he can’t act like he’s not losing. He has to let the other party know how unwilling he is, so that the other party can be anxious, and his chances of winning will be greater.” Sleepless', this poison, must be detailed, forcing the other party to speak out!

The plan is in place, the details are out, how the bureau will be laid out, how the negotiations will be negotiated, and even the twists and turns have been designed. The rest is for Qiu Yiqing and Emperor Yu'an to advance together with the ministers of the DPRK and China. Ye Baiting didn't ask.

It is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and the dossier of the articles needs to be cautious in every way, and it is better to be professionals.

He often goes out these two days and runs outside.Although he didn't really believe it, the ancients valued feng shui and paid attention to funeral rules. Since they said that Yu Linglong should be buried well, he had to make arrangements from time to time.The weather was hot, and ice was used in the house. Before the case was solved, the preservation of the corpse was the top priority, but now, of course, it is best to bury it as soon as possible.

While learning about the funeral rules and various preparations, he would also think about whether there is any gift that can be given to Qiu Yiqing.

That man probably didn't care about it, and didn't think about these formal gains, but how much... I should try my best and give a little?Ye Baiting was a little worried about what to give, feeling that the other party had everything, and nothing he bought seemed to be new.

I don’t know if it’s because the weather is too hot or because he’s been exposed to the sun. He’s had a bad appetite these days, he can’t eat, and he can’t sleep well. He tosses and turns in the middle of the night and wakes up several times. People are like being fished out of the water, sweating profusely, and the internal fire does not go away. They seem to have lost weight abruptly, but they are haggard.

Shen Jiang didn't come over for two days, and was startled when he saw him like this: "Master! What's the matter with you? If there is anything our subordinates can't do, why did you make yourself like this?"

Ye Baiting, on the other hand, has some small insistences of his own. Others gave their lives to protect Qiu Yiqing, but he just personally sent her off for the last time, which is not hard work.There is not much he can do for Yu Linglong, this last thing, he wants to do it himself.

Yan Yan put down the teacup, and looked around at Shen Jiang. His clothes were brand new, with copper buckles on his belt, and he walked around like a wind and thunder. He looked very mighty, even his waist was straighter than usual...

"Promoted?"

"Thanks to the young master," Shen Jiang grinned, showing his white teeth, and patted the slippery fabric on his chest, cherishing it a little, "I, Shen Jiang, have tried Qianhu since the day before yesterday!"

Generally, there must be a transition between a hundred households and a thousand households, so the word "trial" was added. If nothing happens, after a while, he will be a serious one. Congratulations to Mr. Chito...

Shen Jiangzhi was full of pride, and his beauty was gone. He was almost the fastest promoted in Jinyiwei. From the general banner to a hundred households to a thousand households, it took less than a year!

Because of what, he is very clear.

He knows that he is two pounds, and he is not a very good or outstanding talent, otherwise he would not have been around for so many years, and he is the general flag. Bossing and ordering him to do things in various ways actually broadened his horizons and broadened his thinking mode. He began to think things more and more carefully, and he became more and more daring to diverge, and he would think more deeply.

Because the young master disliked him while practicing him, the commanding officer also lenient him and took him to the school grounds to practice every day. It is different if he is taught by a strong person. His muscles and bones have long since had no room for growth, and he cannot hone more powerful martial arts. , but changes in moves, thinking path, a little change, it will be different, sometimes even other people's attacks are in front of his eyes, like an old lady doing Tai Chi, it is extremely slow, he can see the flaws at a glance, and counterattack with one move. enemy.

He, Shen Jiang, is no longer Shen Zongqi in the past. He is not guilty at all of being promoted to this official position. He can see clearly the way ahead. He just follows the young master and the commander without wavering. Don't look at him as a little stupid. He can also aim for thousands of miles, and the future is limited!

Ye Baiting: "Congratulations."

Shen Jiang wrinkled his nose: "Are you going out later?"

Ye Baiting obviously didn't change his mind: "Yes."

"Then I..."

"Aren't you busy with your own business?" Ye Baiting fell back, leaned on the chair pillow, closed his eyes, "What did you do?"

Shen Jiang looked down at the clothes on his body, and then at the shoes under his feet. They were all just changed, and nothing was missing... How did the young master know it again!

He rubbed his nose, knowing that he couldn't fool the young master by making up nonsense, so he simply shook his head: "This... I can't say it."

"whatever."

Ye Baiting didn't have to ask Shen Jiang what he was doing, he was too lazy to take care of him, but he knew Shen Jiang too well, and he didn't come to him immediately after he was promoted, so there must be other arrangements, other things , it is likely that Qiu Yiqing personally explained the matter, and he didn't have time.

Shen Jiang was a little hypocritical: "Then what... You are welcome, young master, I will accompany you for a walk outside today?"

"No need," Ye Baiting lazily said, "I don't have any important matters. I have guards below. You don't need to follow me to waste your energy. It's rare to sneak in. There's no new case. If you're free, why don't you go and accompany your wife."

"But……"

"Don't tell the commander."

Ye Baiting suddenly opened his eyes, and looked at Shen Jiang solemnly: "He has a lot of things to do, and I can handle these small things by myself."

Shen Jiang thought for a while, looked around, leaned over and lowered his voice: "Then let me tell you secretly, it's really not that the commander didn't come back and neglected the young master, he is really too busy, you can't be angry... "

Ye Baiting ignored him lazily: "I'm not a young girl who hasn't grown up yet, how can I be so stingy."

"Uh……"

"Okay, let's go."

Shen Jiang is obedient and won't sell the young master, but who is Qiu Suiqing, how can he not know what Ye Baiting is busy with, even if he is busy, he can't go back, and the news of Beizhen Fusi keeps reaching him. Ye Baiting asked someone to inquire about the funeral rules and buy things, but he didn't ask much. Seeing Ye Baiting began to look at the cemetery, he directly moved over...

On this day, everything is ready, even the almanac has been read, it is suitable for burial.

As a forensic doctor, Ye Baiting is good at arranging corpses. He can keep Yu Linglong clean and tidy, but he doesn't know how to put on makeup, so he invited his sister over.

This kind of thing has to be changed by someone else, afraid of being scolded early, ordinary people will be more or less taboo, Ye Baishao is different, she is careful and broad-minded, the things she has passed, the road she has traveled, and the things she has seen are all different from others It's different, he came when he heard his younger brother's call, and didn't say much.

She was wearing a plain dress, and she was carrying a dowry box in her hand, which was very large, with several layers up and down, and each layer was a different thing when opened, with small brushes and puffs of different sizes and shapes, with different matt and light shades, Various shades of rouge and lip balm, solid powder and paste various makeup powders...

Ye Baiting knew that he was well-informed, so he didn't quite recognize him.

Ye Baishao put the makeup box on the table, opened it, took out the contents one by one, and put makeup on the pale-faced Yu Linglong.

"I know her, she is a beautiful girl."

"She came to eat in my building, wearing a fence, people can not see the face, cherish words like gold, asked for a box, just by herself. But she doesn't look lonely at all, as if she loves herself I was busy in the building that day, and I served her food. I heard her whisper to myself, just two bites, and two more bites... In the end, I still ate too much, and I came out to pay for it Then, I glared at my cook."

"Just the chubby one," Ye Baishao said to his younger brother while drawing Yu Linglong's eyebrows, "You should have seen the cook I specially brought from Sichuan? The young man has a lot of things on his mind. Come here and ask me in a low voice. It wasn't that he was too ugly to be hated by girls, but before he finished speaking, he was given a gift by someone running errands with a girl's words, saying that he was sorry just now..."

"...This is a cute, slightly awkward little girl."

"It's only recently that I've heard more about Miss Yu. She seems to be always alone, doesn't have a family, and never thought of getting married. It seems that she has no pursuit of love. But when I think about it carefully, I just remembered that I was lucky enough to meet her. If her dance really doesn't understand love and can't dance such a tender and lingering dance, then there is something extraordinary in her heart..."

Rouge flew up on the cheeks, the lips were painted in color, the willow eyebrows were dyed in the dark color of distant mountains, and the beauty's face gradually appeared in front of her eyes.

"Look, how beautiful it is, she is a beauty!"

Ye Baiting looked at Yu Linglong's face and paused for a long time, as if wanting to remember this moment, this girl's beautiful appearance.

Ye Baishao touched the back of his younger brother's head: "There are always many partings in life, they come unexpectedly, people don't even have a chance to say goodbye, the fate is shallow, and we can't keep time, so we need to know how to cherish... Miss Yu She is a transparent person with bright eyes, she will not be afraid of the dark road ahead, because she has seen the bright sky, she probably does not want others to be sad for her, we just need to remember her beautiful appearance, remember that she likes plum blossoms and smiles Sweet wine with plum fragrance, with very good friends."

"If she is by your side now, she shouldn't feel regretful. Seeing you looking at her like this, I'm guessing that other gossips will be more curious, such as your relationship with General An... Did you give him anything? Didn't accept your wishes? The commander is General An, and General An is the commander. You have committed so many deaths before, will it be embarrassing? Is there anything embarrassing about it, and you can tell her to make her happy?"

Ye Baiting lowered his eyes.

"I know."

As a forensic doctor, he was used to seeing life and death. He thought he was very free and easy, but he didn't expect his sister to worry about him.

"...Thank you sister."

"You really don't want me to accompany you?" Ye Baishao looked at his younger brother with a little worry.

Ye Baiting shook his head: "No need."

"In fact, I don't mind these things. I am lucky enough to meet Miss Yu, and I would like to give her a ride..."

"No, I can."

"Ok."

Ye Baishao stopped persuading her, and watched her younger brother burn incense, sprinkle wine, move the coffin, burn paper... and sealed the coffin in the eulogy, bowed far away, turned and left.

Chou Yiqing came back at some point, wearing a black robe, after looking at Yu Linglong's face and bowing solemnly, Dazhang and Ye Baiting pushed the coffin lid together.

"Let's take her up the mountain together."

Ye Baiting's eyes drooped: "Yes."

Helping the coffin up, the road ahead is long, yellow and white paper money is flying, and the weather seems to be not so hot anymore.

Ye Baiting thought, along the way, others owed General An a lot, and General An owed others a lot, everyone was willing, and there were mutual debts, but it didn't matter, these debts made everyone bond even deeper...

The world is actually very warm.

He likes this warmth.

It would be great if these people won't leave, maybe you can sit down occasionally, sip a glass of wine, watch the spring scenery, and listen to the wind.

The cemetery chosen by Qiu Yiqing for Yu Linglong is called Hero Tomb.It is the place where his soldiers and generals are buried. There are many solitary graves without family members here. The souls return to their hometowns and have nowhere to rest. He specially set aside this place and made a hero's tomb. Every year, people pay homage.

Although they have no relatives alive, there will always be someone who will remember them.

Although Yu Linglong has never been on a battlefield, her character is worthy of it.

Qiu Yiqing personally sank the coffin into the pit: "Soldiers and generals are rough people, I hope Miss Yu will not dislike being their neighbor."

Ye Baiting took a handful of loess and sprinkled it on the coffin: "How could it be? General An's soldiers, their swords and swords are aimed at foreign enemies. From now on, Miss Yu will no longer be wandering, and will no longer be afraid of danger coming, so I can feel at ease."

Accompanied by Ye Baiting, Qiu Yiqing also sprinkled loess: "I only hope that the country will be safe and the people will be safe, and there will be no more wars."

Ye Baiting lowered her voice: "... Miss Yu, thank you."

When the wind blows, the leaves and petals are rolled up, and they don't go for a long time. They seem to be very happy, and they seem to be whispering to someone and comforting someone.

After a long time, when the white candles in front of the grave were half burned, Qiu Yiqing held Ye Baiting's hand: "It's getting late, let's go back? Come see her some other day."

"Ah."

Ye Baiting calmed down and left with Qiu Xingqing. Just as he walked to the tree where the horse was tied, he found someone walking towards the grave. It was Su Jiujiu and Du Kang.

He remembered Shen Jiang vaguely mentioning that during the investigation of the case, Su Jiujiu made a request, saying that the case was closed, and after Yu Linglong was buried, please tell her that she had a glass of farewell wine.

Su Jiujiu quickly walked to the grave, bowed upright, and poured a glass of wine in front of the grave.

The distance is a bit far, but the wind direction is just right, Ye Baiting smelled it: "This smell... seems to be Mei Lie?"

Yu Linglong's favorite wine.

Evidence was collected in the case, and Qiu Xunqing had also heard of it, and nodded lightly: "Yes."

Su Jiujiu didn't seem to say much, except for the glass that was spilled on the ground, another jar of wine was opened, the aroma of the wine was clear and lingering...

Ye Baiting understood immediately, she didn't need to speak, everything was in the wine.

I don't know if it's because the case involved too much wine, or if Su Jiujiu's words were still lingering that day, he had a special understanding of wine, this wine is obviously not too spicy, but a little sweet, but somehow, He could smell something like the starry sky in the desert.

He remembered Su Jiujiu's story about Yu Linglong's past, about the unsettled life at the border, and the young general who spared his life to save her in times of crisis, and never let go of her hand. Yu Linglong said, that's what she had seen before. The charming young eyes.

This altar of wine is for listening, for blessing, for Su Jiujiu to send Yu Linglong off for the last time, wishing her a peaceful future and a smooth next life.

This is the emotional connection between the two girls, the moment they shared with each other under the stars.

Ye Baiting lowered her eyes: "Yu Linglong...you like that young man back then."

Qiu Yiqing: "Perhaps, he is no longer a young man."

"I don't know the boy's name, what kind of life he's living now..." Ye Baiting couldn't help feeling sad, "I've missed it."

Qiu Yiqing clenched his hand: "Perhaps, she never thought that she must have it."

Life is always accompanied by all kinds of regrets. Along the way, you will see many beautiful scenery and good people. You may like it very much, but you don’t have to have it. Sometimes that moment is enough. .

One period and one meeting is the fate of a lifetime.

Ye Baiting looked at the two people in front of the grave, Su Jiujiu in front and Du Kang in the back, it seemed that there was always a distance between them, but they were always tacit and quiet, and everyone's presence was not obtrusive.

"Du Kang's position...is he protecting Su Jiujiu from the wind?"

However, Qiu Yiqing noticed the difference: "Look at Su Jiujiu, her position is also the direction with the least wind."

Ye Baiting was slightly surprised: "Actually... it's not that she didn't respond."

The love of young people is passionate and pure. All the restraint and secret sacrifices are just for this love buried in the heart. If you choose not to say it, you may have various concerns.The girl's non-rejection may be because she doesn't know, she doesn't point it out, but she just doesn't want to scare people away. She saw the boy's secret concern, accepted this care, and always pay attention to not letting herself be in too bad a situation. The situation makes the other party more worried.

All the acquiescence is just a long stream of water, quietly waiting for the day when it will come to fruition.

"Smart girl."

It looks like Du Kang is waiting for Su Jiujiu and giving for her, but in fact Su Jiujiu is the one who has always been in charge, waiting for this feeling to slowly ferment and turn into wine over the years.The age difference may not be that important to her.

Because Ye Baiting and Qiu Yiqing didn't move, they also heard the words they chatted in a soft voice when they left.

"Senior Sister just now... seems to have talked a lot with Miss Yu." Du Kang's eyes were still quiet, but there was a bit of willful jealousy from an angle that others could not see.

Su Jiujiu's face was calm, maybe he didn't hear it, but he pretended not to hear it, and nodded seriously: "Yes. Last time we had a drink under the moon, we once lamented that life is too long, and we can't understand it for a long time. Life is too short, more bitter than sweet, she said that she didn't know if she likes to dance, is it meaningful, I also said, I like to make wine, and I am getting more and more addicted, I don't know if it is meaningful... But she practiced dance music, I After making new wine, some people may remember it after death, some people may pass it on, maybe not, but it seems that the joy of doing this is very important to us.”

"We women seem to be unable to do anything else. We cannot defend our home and country, or even protect the peace of our family. We can only do what we can do, and make ourselves colorful first... I will eventually answer in my heart, maybe in the future. It is more free and easy, and you may just want to get drunk, why relieve your worries, only Du Kang."

"Senior Sister, I didn't hear you clearly just now, please say it again."

"I said we girls..."

"Behind."

"Will there be an answer?"

"Further."

"...Why is Du Kang the only one who can relieve your worries?" Su Jiujiu seemed to understand something, a little annoyed, "I'm talking about wine, not you."

Du Kang smiled: "I am very grateful to the master for giving me this name... Although my father died in the battle and I have no clan members, but-my name is Du Kang, which can relieve all worries. Senior sister, please remember it in your heart. forget."

"I said it was wine, not you."

"I'm not talking about wine..."

It's you.

In the emotional contest, each has its own interests and struggles.

Ye Baiting felt the breeze wrapped around her fingertips, making her feel cool. She lowered her head to look, and suddenly remembered what her sister said. Yu Linglong is a girl who is occasionally lively and narrow-minded. If she were here now, she might laugh at the lingering routines of lovers. .

"What are you thinking?" Qiu Yiqing took Xuanfeng, clasped Ye Baiting's waist, and led him onto the horse.

"It's nothing."

Ye Baiting smiled, leaning against Qiu Yiqing's arms, letting her hair flutter in the wind, looking up to see that the sky was clear and the wind was gentle.

"It just feels amazing. We strange, all kinds of people have formed the human world. Some protect their homes and countries, some create prosperity, some pass poems and books, and some create skills... The world is very big, civilization moves forward, away from the world. No one is good, no one is more important than everyone, and no one is humbler than everyone, not worth mentioning."

The wind brings the moist breath of rain, soft and cool, with branches and leaves swaying with the wind, and flowers in full bloom, as if they are dancing.

"Miss Yu... seems to like this place very much."

"Ah."

"I seem to have forgotten to ask you, why did you alias General An?"

"My grandmother's surname is Ann. But if I knew you earlier..."

"How about knowing me earlier?"

"If I had known you earlier, I might have changed my name - General Ye."
