Chapter 53 Linglong Pagoda, Iron Faced Arhat Stealing the Royal Horse
It was night, Wei You and Shen Si were drinking and chatting. After drinking the two jars of wine, they became more and more drunk without realizing it, and finally they both fell asleep on the couch in a daze.The wax oil on the candlestick was burned out, the lantern flickered, and the tiny flame turned into blue smoke and floated up, becoming invisible, and the tent was plunged into darkness.
After half a stick of incense time, Shen Si slowly opened his eyes, pretending to be dreaming and murmured softly twice: "Bo Ling? Bo Ling?"
There was no movement on Wei You's end, and the sound of breathing was heavy and long, obviously fast asleep.
Shen Si didn't dare to act rashly, until his eyes were completely adapted to the darkness, he took the opportunity of turning over to get closer to Wei You.After waiting for a long time, seeing that Wei You showed no sign of waking up, he quietly propped up his upper body on his elbows, and at the same time stretched out his hand to a sheepskin witch hazel animal head pouch hanging on Wei You's waist.
Wei You is different from Jin Wang, he has always been low-key in front of people, and he doesn't like fancy clothes and ornaments. His daily wear is half-worn, but this purse is a little more delicate. According to contemplation, it is likely to be Presented by Princess Liu.Based on Shen Si's understanding of Wei You, there must be a reason why she is willing to carry the purse on her body, it is not simply for decoration, maybe it is used to store valuables.
He held the purse with his fingertips and squeezed it lightly. It was true that there were things in it, but judging from the shape and size, it was definitely not what he was looking for, but more like spices, pills, etc. .
There was nothing here, and the pensive eyes fell on the wooden shelf behind the screen.Just now he was hot from eating, so Wei You took off his outer shirt and hung it there.Shen Si tiptoed down from the low couch, walked around the table carefully, grabbed Wei You's coat and groped inch by inch, but finally found nothing.
Not in the purse, nor on the outer shirt, rubbing the center of his brows thoughtfully for a moment, then turned his attention to Wei You's slightly open neckline.He returned to the couch, listened for a while, and confirmed that there was no movement on Wei You's end, so he swung his arm and put it on Wei You's chest.He has been dishonest since he was a child when he slept, so this movement was done very naturally.But Wei You's chest was flat, and he didn't feel anything hidden or hung on it at all.
This meditation was completely difficult, just when he wanted to stand up and observe the movement outside the tent, Wei You rolled over and pinned his sleeve, making him unable to move at all.
The thing Shen Si was looking for was not big, it was made of brass, engraved with the pattern of a tiger, the middle was thrown into two pieces, half was held in the hands of the emperor, and the other half was held in the hands of the expedition commander. What he was looking for was held by Wei You half of a soldier symbol.
This time the Tatars invaded, Shen Si knew that the King of Jin wanted to go back to defend against the enemy, but with the Weiyou army staring at him, the Jin army, which was already at a disadvantage, was really at a loss.Ten years of achievements on the one hand, and the righteousness of the family and the country on the other, really made King Jin in a dilemma and worried.
The little emperor only had his golden dragon throne in his heart, if he could get rid of the thorn in the side of King Jin, he would not care about losing a few cities and killing or injuring tens of millions of people.Now the only person Shensi can place hope on is Wei You.
The real purpose of his trip was to help the King of Jin, and to persuade Wei You to put aside his gains and losses for the time being, and join forces with the King of Jin to fight against the Tatars.But he also knew that avenging his father and seizing the throne had become the obsessions in Wei You's heart, and nothing could stop Wei You, and his plan was no less than a fool's dream.The next best thing to do is to find a way to force Wei You to stand still and give King Jin a chance to complete his mission.
Going back a few years, he would have confidently thought that he could easily impress Wei You with just a few words of his own. Now that times have changed, even if Wei You made a promise to him personally, he dare not believe it.So he had to grab a life gate that could hold Wei You down, such as a soldier talisman.
The Liu family's army is a private army, and they only obey their own commander, even if they don't have a soldier talisman, they can still be dispatched by Wei You.But if the little emperor found out that Wei You's soldier talisman fell into the hands of the enemy, especially the fugitive Shen Si who openly challenged his imperial dignity, he would be furious.The time was not yet ripe, Wei You did not dare to act rashly even though he had the intention of committing a crime, once the little emperor became suspicious, all the careful arrangements in the early stage would be in vain.
Stealing the soldier talisman can certainly threaten Wei You, but the problem before him is, where did Wei You hide this soldier talisman?Most ordinary people would carry such an important thing with them, but how could a thoughtful person like Wei You put it away at will?Thinking about it, Shen Si didn't think it was strange at all. Since Wei You dared to be in the same room with him, he had taken all precautions, and he couldn't easily succeed.Or...should we do the opposite and check those inconspicuous places...
After tossing and tossing for most of the night, the next day he slept until the sun was deep in meditation before getting up lazily. He tidied up his crumpled clothes, washed his face indiscriminately, and saw Wei You himself carrying a steaming meal and leaving Come in.
Wei You put the meals on the table one by one, then turned around and said with a smile, thinking, "I just said that you grew up, but in a blink of an eye you woke up like you were a child. You really shouldn't be allowed to drink so much wine yesterday. You I don’t know how soundly you slept in the morning, do you? Even if you draw a bastard on your face with a brush, you still don’t feel it.”
Shen Si raised his sleeve and wiped it away, wiped off the remaining water stains on his face, then grabbed a steamed bun with his bare hands and gnawed on it: "I'm already married, and I still think about the stupid things I did when I was young, don't you?" Where did you get old again?"
Wei You pursed her lips: "How is it stupid to draw a bastard? You are not good at chess and you are unwilling to admit defeat, and you are so proud that you painted a water-avoiding turtle on your face. When you cross the Yupai River, you won't sink to the bottom again."
Shen Si swallowed the steamed buns in two or three mouthfuls, rolled his eyes: "You also said that you are a turtle that avoids water, who told you to draw a dry buffalo, which made me almost become a ghost at the bottom of the pond."
They were joking with each other about the past, when suddenly someone came down to report that the third son, Wei Qian, and his party had returned to the camp with food and supplies.Wei You immediately ordered the visitor: "Go and ask the third brother to come over and talk, and teach him to let go of the matter at hand."
After about half a cup of tea, the subordinate returned, followed by Wei Qian and another burly man.
The light in the tent was much darker than the outside, Wei Qian's eyes were dark when he walked in, he didn't notice who was sitting in the room, he yawned a little tiredly, and nodded towards Wei You very casually "Brother, I'm back." When he saw Shensi next to Wei You, his expression changed drastically, and the corners of his mouth and brows were all tensed up guardedly, "Brother, this...this is...important. How can you be so nonsense!"
Wei You seemed to have never heard of his younger brother's questioning, so he waved lightly and said, "Shu Yuan, come quickly, this one is the Shen Xiaowu I always mentioned. I remember when you and Zhong Chang went to Lanyue Mountain Visiting as brother, I met him once, but at that time he was just a stupid kid, and now he has grown into a tall man, I'm afraid you won't recognize him anymore."
Ever since Wei Qian entered the door, Shen Si had been paying attention to the opponent's every move. He could see very clearly that Wei Qian obviously recognized himself before Wei Youdai introduced him, so he suddenly became nervous.
Without waiting for Wei Qian to react, Shen Si got up first to salute and said: "Brother Shuyuan, Shen Si, Shen Nianqing, you and I are old acquaintances according to Yu Boling, and seeing you today is really extraordinary. The elder brothers are in trouble because of my Shen family. I have worked tirelessly with all my heart and mind, and there is no reward for contemplation, so thank you in advance.”
He clasped his fists on his chest, bowed his head and nodded, and stared at Wei Qian from the corner of his eye.Hearing what he said, Wei Qian's throat wriggled first, and then a drop of sweat trickled down his temples to his chin.
After a long silence, Wei Qian replied with a pale face and a smile on his face: "So it's Young Master Shen, Wei Qian can't bear the word 'thank you'."
This obvious hostility made Shen Si conclude that Wei Qian was by no means simple.
At this time, Shensi noticed the dark-skinned man standing behind Wei Qian all the time. Thinking of what several Jialan guards said yesterday, "Brother Lu went out with the third son on business", he stared at him for a while, deliberately He leaned closer and asked, "I heard that there is a master swordsman surnamed Lu in Jialan Guard. I saw that this man has strong shoulders and strong limbs, but is it the legendary Brother Lu?"
The man was not wary that Shen Si would suddenly ask him a question, he was stunned for a moment, and hastily clasped his fists together and said, "I'm right here. However, Lu has only studied saber techniques a little bit, and I really dare not be called a master."
At the moment when his left palm covered his right fist, thunder and lightning flashed in his mind, the hurricane roared, and the sound of "coaxing" almost burst into flames.He could see clearly that the man was missing half of his left little finger, and it was the mysterious killer he was looking for.He slowly touched his waist with five fingers, and tightly grasped the hilt of the sword. The sword seemed to have a spirituality, buzzing in the sheath, and almost broke free.
Shen Si deliberately pretended to be concerned, but because he tried his best to suppress his emotions, the corners of his lips could not help trembling slightly: "Hey, brother Lu's hand seems to have been injured, the so-called 'two swords look away, one sword looks at the hand', yes For those of us who practice martial arts, hands and feet are the ones who eat, so we must not be sloppy."
The two had never met each other before, thinking about this concern made the other party feel a lot more uncomfortable, the man surnamed Lu quickly cast a glance at Wei Qian, then hurriedly lowered his arm and hid his disabled hand back in his sleeve: "Oh... ...Thank you for reminding me, my lord, it's just a small injury I accidentally suffered when I was out on business, and it's gone now."
Shen Si followed the man's eyes and looked at Wei Qian. It happened that Wei Qian also raised his eyes to look at him. The two eyes interlaced. Wei Qian seemed to be burned, and hurriedly turned his head away.Naturally, Shen Si didn't want to miss this great opportunity to track down the real culprit, and asked the surnamed Lu word by word: "Look at the uneven wound on Brother Lu's finger, it doesn't look like a sword wound, it's more like being bitten off. It's..." He was obviously asking the Jialan Wei, but his eyes were fixed on Wei Qian all the time, "Could it be that Brother Lu fell in love with a girl from some family, intending to plot evil, and was angered by her and bit off his finger? ?” In order to show that he was joking, he deliberately laughed twice after speaking.
The guard surnamed Lu's eyes flickered, obviously he had been humiliated, but he didn't speak out for a while.On the other hand, Wei Qian cast a cold, silent glance, implying murderous intent.
Although Wei You stayed out of the matter, she also felt that the pensive joke was a bit too much, and immediately stopped her by saying: "Little Wu, don't mess around, this brother Lu is a well-known gentleman in the Jialan Guard, and he has never been close to women, and he can't do it. Such nasty things as molesting women."
Shen Si nodded towards Wei You, gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, don't blame me, I'm used to being rude, and I always don't know how to make jokes. Shen Si doesn't really care about your character, I just want to see and see How about your sword skills..."
Before he finished speaking, a cold light suddenly appeared, and he drew his sword out of its sheath with a "shua", and went straight to the opponent's heart with a gust of cold wind.That posture is not intended to learn martial arts, it is clearly looking for someone to fight desperately, allowing all his vitals to be exposed to the opponent's knife, and he has no intention of defending.In terms of kung fu alone, the guard surnamed Lu is definitely above Shen Si, but once a person falls into a state of madness, he may be almost invincible.
The guard surnamed Lu saw the sword wind coming, and there was no way to avoid it, so he hurriedly drew his knife to resist, the blade collided with each other forcefully, and sparks flew everywhere with a "clang", shaking the ears of everyone around them numb.The sword was blocked, Shen Si swung the tail of the flood dragon with the help of inertia, twisted the spinner in mid-air, returned his hand and pointed the sword directly at the opponent's lower abdomen."Dengdengdeng" surnamed Lu stepped back a few steps one after another. Seeing his back against the load-bearing column, he lifted his foot vigorously and kicked back, and the whole person passed over Shensi's head, and landed lightly two steps behind Shensi. remote location.
Don't want to think that Shen Si had already prepared, the previous move was to lure him into the bait, seeing that the opponent was already standing behind, Shen Si actually used the iron bridge move, the waist was stronger, the sword was held in both hands, and the lower body was as stable as a rock. Steady on the ground, the upper body suddenly fell backwards.The man surnamed Lu was caught off guard, and a big gash was cut straight from the collarbone to the navel by the tip of the sword. He immediately bled profusely and fell to the ground screaming.If he had stood two inches closer, he would have been gutted and killed on the spot.
Let the opponent roll over on the ground clutching his wound, thinking deeply, he couldn't let go of his hatred, he raised his sword with red eyes and stabbed towards the throat.He had already forgotten that he was in the enemy's camp, and his mind was full of thoughts of one life for another, even if he knew that the other party was only following orders, it was still difficult to reduce the hatred in his heart.The throat is broken, the blood will spurt several feet high, I can't make a sound, I can't breathe, the taste must be very painful.But compared to the torture my sister and brother-in-law endured, it's really nothing!
That contest only happened in a split second, and by the time the Wei brothers reacted, the one surnamed Lu had already fallen into a pool of blood.Jialan Wei was Wei Qian's subordinate, he could never tolerate Shen Si doing whatever he wanted and hurting people's lives under his nose. Seeing the critical situation, he had no time to draw his sword, so he hurriedly picked up the nearest armchair and swung towards Shen Si.
The chair hit on Shen Si's back, and it shattered with a "bang", and the person was also knocked flying a few feet, fell to the ground, and overturned the round table full of dinner plates.In fact, Shensi had already lost his strength, but he was so excited that he didn't notice it. At this moment, his chest was stuffy and painful, he was lying on the ground and panting heavily, and he couldn't get up for a while.
Wei You was caught off guard by Shen Si's performance, and was a little puzzled for a moment. He couldn't figure out why Shen Si would suddenly kill a stranger so aggressively.But seeing Shen Si fell to the ground, he rushed over to help him up immediately.
His subordinate was seriously injured, Wei Qian couldn't help being furious, and immediately came to Shensi with a sword in his hand.Seeing this, Wei You raised his eyebrows: "Shu Yuan! Don't take anyone down for treatment yet!"
Hearing the noise, the guards guarding outside the tent rushed in, seeing the mess on the ground and lying a bloody man lying there, they were shocked on the spot and didn't know what to do for a while.It was Wei You who calmly said: "Swords have no eyes, and it is inevitable to miss and get injured when exercising martial arts. Hurry up and find a medical officer so that you can treat Brother Lu's injuries. As for what happened in the tent today, you must not spread it." See Wei Qian was still glaring in front of him, Wei Youshao had no choice but to comfort his younger brother and said, "You just finished your errands, and you must be exhausted, go down and rest first. I have something else to ask you tonight."
Wei Qian looked at Wei You, then at Wei You's hand firmly on Shen Si's shoulder, clenched his fist and remained silent for a moment, then turned his head and strode out without saying a word.
After everyone rushed to lift the guard surnamed Lu out of the tent, and cleaned up the broken tables and chairs, Wei You rushed out and ordered: "Go and invite He Qianfan and Mr. He." At the same time, he did not forget to blame and ponder , "You too, are you a demon? You don't have a deep hatred, so why bother to hurt others? In the end, it's not me who suffers. Forget it, I'll ask Qian Fan to help you take a look later."
Shen Sisi spoke out to stop him, but he opened his mouth to cough violently at first, but he couldn't stop, coughing so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist, Wei You couldn't help it, and hurriedly stroked his back to help him breathe.The two were very close, their sleeves and skirts scraped together, and in deep thought, they vaguely felt that their arms were crushed by something hard.At first he didn't pay attention, he just thought it was the jade buckle inlaid on Wei You's belt.But when the thing hit his elbow again, Shen Si suddenly remembered that Wei You's belt was plain to the end, without any decoration at all.
He had some vague guesses in his mind, but he wasn't sure yet, so he pretended to be weak, leaned against Wei You's body softly, and rubbed it with his fingers through the cover of his sleeves...
The thing is about two or three inches long and more than an inch wide. It has a curved surface, a head and a tail, and two legs.Wei You actually hid the soldier talisman in the middle of the belt!
What Wei You said was true, although he had relieved a lot of anger by contemplating the bodyguard Lu, but he was the one who suffered in the end.After being hit by Wei Qian, he still couldn't be completely intact. He was coughing and wheezing all afternoon, and the pain between his chest and ribs was endless when he exhaled and inhaled.Fortunately, he hit right and wrong, and thus found the whereabouts of the soldier talisman, which was a blessing in disguise.
Although the Jialan guards guarding outside were tight-lipped about what happened in the tent at noon, their colleagues were hurt by others, so they inevitably felt jealous, and they were not as polite as before when they saw Shensi.There is nothing wrong with this, the guards kept him at a respectful distance, and it was more convenient for him to do things.
After dinner, Wei You still had things to deal with, so he left without saying a word.Taking advantage of the half-true excuse of being unwell, Shen Si also turned off the light early and went to sleep.
The night was getting darker, and there was silence around the tent. Pensive closed his eyes and listened intently to the footsteps of the patrolling guards.Taking advantage of the short gap after a group of guards left, he quietly got up again, slipped out from the small crack that had been pried open in advance on the back of the bed, rolled quickly against the ground in the dark, followed by a diving leap, and he was silent. Xi Yin hid behind the horse post.After quietly waiting for the second batch of guards to pass by, Shen Si stood up and patted the leaves of grass all over his body, carefully groping towards the direction of the Chinese army.
He originally intended to find out the layout of the camp, so that he could retreat quickly after stealing the soldier talisman.Halfway there, I saw two guys dressed as soldiers talking in a low voice while walking.One of them was holding a copper pot in his hand, and the mouth of the pot was still steaming, apparently to deliver tea.The other person reminded him kindly: "The prince is talking in the tent of the third son. It is a waste of time for you to send it there now. It would be better to send it directly to the tent of the third son."
"That's the reason, thank you brother." The water delivery man turned to another direction according to his words.
Shen Si thought for a while, then followed quietly.
Wei Qian's sleeping tent is not very far from Shensi's side tent. Outside the tent is a lush old tree with a crooked neck. Shensi's monkey sprinted up like a few steps, with his feet coiled on the branches, using the leaves to cover the whole The man hung upside down, cut a small hole with a dagger and looked inside.The candles in the room were brightly lit. Brothers Wei You and Wei Qian stood and sat at the table, while the red-faced man Wei Chisheng stood guard outside the door with his shoulders straight. People ran away.
First I heard Wei You asking: "Shu Yuan, did you change the secret letter sent to Runing?"
The tent was too big, the voice was not close enough, the voice inside could not be heard intermittently, Shensi was eager to find out what was going on, so he had to take the risk and sank down, his head and neck almost touching the top of the tent.
"What secret letter?" Wei Qian's tone sounded like he was pretending to be stupid, "Oh...does it have something to do with the Shen family again? It's been so long, and I would have forgotten it if I didn't tell you."
Wei You calmly asked again: "You haven't answered yet, did you change the secret letter?"
Wei Qian was playing with the teacup by himself, without looking at Wei You: "But what did Shen Nianqing say that made the eldest brother come to find his brother's fault? I'm really curious about what drug the eldest brother was drugged by him, so important At this juncture, you actually brought a 'bad root' to your side, you won't forget that he cut off Gu Mingzhang's head to openly provoke the court, right? If the little emperor finds out about this, our ten years of hard work will be in vain."
Wei You smacked his lips, but there was no trace of emotion on his face: "According to this, you really exchanged the secret letter?"
"It's not me!" Wei Qian's neck twitched, obviously angry.
Wei You analyzed slowly: "Only you and my brother know about the secret letter. Although Zhengguang is in charge of delivering the letter, he doesn't know the content of the letter. I wrote the secret letter and put it on the table that day, and went out to discuss things with Zhong Chang. When you came to Zhengguang to get the letter, you were the only one present, and you were the only one who opposed the warning, so who else would it be if you weren’t the one who exchanged the letter?”
After a moment of silence, Wei Qian got angry first, and slapped the table: "I changed it, so what? I can't see you all being indecisive and emotional. You are hiding your strengths and biding your time on Lanyue Mountain, so what have you learned?" To please Shen Nianqing? As for the second brother, he has read the books of sages and sages until his brain is rotten, and he is full of scholars who talk about gentleness, respect, thrift, benevolence, righteousness and morality. He doesn't want to think about how to protect the lives of others if his own life is lost. I said earlier However, the little emperor wants to kill Shen Wei, but few people know about it. Who can guarantee that he will let us brothers know that he is not setting up a trap to test us? Let's go!"
Wei You tapped the table with his fingers, patiently waiting for his younger brother to finish speaking, and then said quietly: "I regard Shen Nianqing as my own younger brother, no different from you and Zhong Chang. As for Old General Shen, it is Nianqing." Father, I want to keep him safe because of Nianqing. If one day, I also abandon you for the sake of the overall situation, what do you think? Besides, since I wrote the letter, it is naturally well thought out and pre-planned. Think about the countermeasures in case the matter is revealed and the little emperor becomes suspicious. You can't even trust me in such a trivial matter, so why bother to help me seize the throne."
These words don't sound like much at first glance, but upon careful thought, Wei Qian hastily confessed: "You and I are brothers from the same mother, and I am willing to help you. But who is Shen Nianqing?" I, Wei Qian, can be a pig or a dog for my elder brother, and I can pretend to be crazy and foolish in front of the little emperor for my elder brother, but I can't tolerate everything that I have worked so hard to end up being taken advantage of by outsiders."
Wei You smiled wryly and sighed: "Shu Yuan, you're thinking wrong..."
"I didn't make a mistake!" Wei Qian hurriedly said, "Second brother is a nerd and doesn't understand anything, I understand! Over the years, I know who you have in your heart, and who you will lose your head for! Big brother, you I want to be an emperor. The emperor has always been a widow. He has no father, no mother, no wife, and no children. How can there be so many emotions and desires? Shen Nianqing, Shen Nianqing, brother, don't forget the truth that "one son loses everything if he makes a mistake". Our brothers Bearing the burden of humiliation and sacrificing one's life for the sake of the emperor's great cause, not some gifted scholar or beautiful woman!"
Shen Si still wanted to continue listening, but unexpectedly a flying insect passed in front of him and was inadvertently sucked into his nose. It was so itchy that he even rushed out with the cough he had managed to suppress.Although it was two very light sounds, it still alarmed Yu Chisheng who was guarding the door, and the red-faced man drew his sword in his hand and shouted loudly: "Who is it?"
After being yelled at by him, the drowsy young men quickly stood up with their swords in their hands and started searching around.Shen Si held her breath and huddled into a ball, hugging the branches and not daring to come out.Fortunately, there was no moon this night, and the place blocked by the leaves was completely dark.
The yelling drew Wei You out, "Zhengguang, what's the matter?"
Yu Chisheng replied truthfully: "Just now there was a sudden sound, it seemed that someone was coughing, but after searching around, there was no suspicious person."
Wei You looked around suspiciously, and saw that all the young people on patrol had returned in vain, guessing that it was not a big deal, so he casually comforted Yu Chisheng and said: "There are often owls around, and it is most annoying to come out at night. , maybe you misheard the bird call as a cough..."
Meditating on the tree, the cat remained motionless until midnight, until the fourth watch before quietly climbing down and sneaking back to the side tent where he lived.He thought over and over the few words he heard from Wei Qian, and seemed to realize something.This Wei Qian actually regarded himself as a stumbling block on Wei You's road to the emperor, so he tried every means to get rid of himself.
If it is said that he exchanged the letters in order to make Wei You and the Shen family completely draw a line, and then gain the trust of the little emperor, then what is the purpose of killing his sister and brother-in-law?Could it be that...his subordinates confusedly took Feng Zhuosheng as himself, and wanted to wipe out the Shen family?Doing so can not only cut off future troubles, but also cover up his deeds forever...
Based on this, could the officers and soldiers who heard the news and arrived at the Yaowang Temple in the suburbs of Beijing also be related to Wei Qian?But it's not right, when the officers and soldiers arrived, he was walking with Wei You, if he hadn't acted wisely at that moment and stabbed himself, and then put the handle of the knife into Wei You's hand, Wei You would have been imprisoned for the crime of harboring a fugitive. People's house.
Could it be... Wei Qian was already prepared, even if he didn't make a move that day, someone would stab him to show Xiangfan County King's loyalty and selflessness?Thinking of this meditation, I can't help but feel chills down my spine. The three brothers of the Wei family have very different personalities. Who would have thought that the youngest one would be the most ruthless.That being the case, why not make more articles about him...
In the next few days, Wei You did not tell Shen Si the content of the conversation with Wei Qian that night, and Shen Si naturally did not ask any more secrets about the secret letter.Wei Qian deliberately avoided Shensi, but the two of them lived in peace.
The ten-day period set with King Jin is gradually approaching, and what Shen Si has to do is almost ready.In addition to explaining his decision to leave to Wei You, he also pretended to make a request, hoping to say goodbye to Wei Qian in person.Even though Wei You felt reluctance in his heart, he also knew that no matter how hard Shen Si made up his mind to change, he could only patiently pull Wei Qian over to have a drink with Shen Si.
As Shen Si said, after leaving the barracks, the two of them wanted to kill each other again in the Chuhe-Han Realm, so the atmosphere during the banquet was also very dull.
After the meal was over and the wine was gone, Wei You kept talking about one car after another, but he hesitated to speak after several times of meditation.At the end of her patience, Shen Si simply stood up in front of Wei You, knelt down on one knee and bowed down: "Bo Ling, actually I came here to ask for something, but after thinking about it for the past few days, I really can't open my mouth. "
The two brothers of the Wei family were taken aback by the thoughtful action, and Wei You hurriedly reached out to help him: "Xiao Wu, what do you mean? Just say what you have to say!" After helping him up, he was helpless He said with a smile, "I've seen too much of your pompous appearance, and I'm not used to the occasional low eyebrow."
Although Wei Qian didn't speak, two gazes poked at Shen Si like icy notes.
Shen Si didn't care, this scene was intended to be played out for him: "Bo Ling, if you want me to tell you the truth, I'll go all out and not hide anything. I think... Please stay here for three months and don't move."
Before Wei You could speak, Wei Qian stood up abruptly: "Shen Nianqing, you are really ridiculous. You are the male favorite of the King of Jin, and you don't want to keep yourself safe, yet you still come to Xiangfan County King to beg for cheap. Is it a child's play for the two armies to fight? How dare you say that you are stationed in March and do not move, but you regard yourself as Baosi and Daji?"
Shen Si ignored his sarcasm, and just said to Wei You: "You and I have been together day and night, and spent three years in the academy together. I will exchange these three years of love for you for three months, how about it?"
Wei Qian was so angry that he laughed instead: "Ha, haha, three years of love? Don't you feel ashamed of a grown man? My elder brother already has a wife and concubine, Liu's sister-in-law is seven months pregnant, and her son will be born soon. At that time, the father was kind and the son was filial, and the husband and wife were harmonious. What are you, you also came to talk about love..."
Suddenly there was a crisp "pa", Wei Qian's words were planned, Shen Si looked up, and saw a huge palm print clearly appeared on Wei Qian's cheek.Wei You actually slapped his younger brother, which was unexpected by Shen Si.
After a moment of silence, Wei You said in a deep voice: "Okay, Xiao Wu'er, I will take your three-year friendship, and from now on, I will not move, only three months!" After finishing speaking, he turned and left the tent.
For a long time, Wei Qian touched his red and swollen cheek in disbelief, as if he just realized that he had been beaten.He stared blankly at the corner of the wall for a while, and then stared blankly at meditation for a while, his eyes were as indifferent as if he was looking at a corpse that had already rotted and smelled.
Although he was about to leave, the tonic prescription prescribed by Niu Huang was still prepared and brought over.It's just that the attendant who delivered the medicine this time was an unfamiliar face, and he had never seen it before. From the time he entered the door to the time when he put the medicine bowl on the table, he never looked up, but sneaked a few times of contemplation from the corner of his eye.
After the man left, Shen Si walked to the table and picked up the medicine bowl, and when he was about to put it to his mouth, he saw a few black shadows passing by in the gap under the felt curtain.Things seem to be different from what he expected.
Shen Si raised his head nonchalantly, when the medicine bowl was put back on the table, it was clean and bottomed out.Seeing that the saber was still hanging on the wall, he wanted to turn around and untie it, but he fell to the ground without warning after taking two steps...
After half a stick of incense time, Shen Si slowly opened his eyes, pretending to be dreaming and murmured softly twice: "Bo Ling? Bo Ling?"
There was no movement on Wei You's end, and the sound of breathing was heavy and long, obviously fast asleep.
Shen Si didn't dare to act rashly, until his eyes were completely adapted to the darkness, he took the opportunity of turning over to get closer to Wei You.After waiting for a long time, seeing that Wei You showed no sign of waking up, he quietly propped up his upper body on his elbows, and at the same time stretched out his hand to a sheepskin witch hazel animal head pouch hanging on Wei You's waist.
Wei You is different from Jin Wang, he has always been low-key in front of people, and he doesn't like fancy clothes and ornaments. His daily wear is half-worn, but this purse is a little more delicate. According to contemplation, it is likely to be Presented by Princess Liu.Based on Shen Si's understanding of Wei You, there must be a reason why she is willing to carry the purse on her body, it is not simply for decoration, maybe it is used to store valuables.
He held the purse with his fingertips and squeezed it lightly. It was true that there were things in it, but judging from the shape and size, it was definitely not what he was looking for, but more like spices, pills, etc. .
There was nothing here, and the pensive eyes fell on the wooden shelf behind the screen.Just now he was hot from eating, so Wei You took off his outer shirt and hung it there.Shen Si tiptoed down from the low couch, walked around the table carefully, grabbed Wei You's coat and groped inch by inch, but finally found nothing.
Not in the purse, nor on the outer shirt, rubbing the center of his brows thoughtfully for a moment, then turned his attention to Wei You's slightly open neckline.He returned to the couch, listened for a while, and confirmed that there was no movement on Wei You's end, so he swung his arm and put it on Wei You's chest.He has been dishonest since he was a child when he slept, so this movement was done very naturally.But Wei You's chest was flat, and he didn't feel anything hidden or hung on it at all.
This meditation was completely difficult, just when he wanted to stand up and observe the movement outside the tent, Wei You rolled over and pinned his sleeve, making him unable to move at all.
The thing Shen Si was looking for was not big, it was made of brass, engraved with the pattern of a tiger, the middle was thrown into two pieces, half was held in the hands of the emperor, and the other half was held in the hands of the expedition commander. What he was looking for was held by Wei You half of a soldier symbol.
This time the Tatars invaded, Shen Si knew that the King of Jin wanted to go back to defend against the enemy, but with the Weiyou army staring at him, the Jin army, which was already at a disadvantage, was really at a loss.Ten years of achievements on the one hand, and the righteousness of the family and the country on the other, really made King Jin in a dilemma and worried.
The little emperor only had his golden dragon throne in his heart, if he could get rid of the thorn in the side of King Jin, he would not care about losing a few cities and killing or injuring tens of millions of people.Now the only person Shensi can place hope on is Wei You.
The real purpose of his trip was to help the King of Jin, and to persuade Wei You to put aside his gains and losses for the time being, and join forces with the King of Jin to fight against the Tatars.But he also knew that avenging his father and seizing the throne had become the obsessions in Wei You's heart, and nothing could stop Wei You, and his plan was no less than a fool's dream.The next best thing to do is to find a way to force Wei You to stand still and give King Jin a chance to complete his mission.
Going back a few years, he would have confidently thought that he could easily impress Wei You with just a few words of his own. Now that times have changed, even if Wei You made a promise to him personally, he dare not believe it.So he had to grab a life gate that could hold Wei You down, such as a soldier talisman.
The Liu family's army is a private army, and they only obey their own commander, even if they don't have a soldier talisman, they can still be dispatched by Wei You.But if the little emperor found out that Wei You's soldier talisman fell into the hands of the enemy, especially the fugitive Shen Si who openly challenged his imperial dignity, he would be furious.The time was not yet ripe, Wei You did not dare to act rashly even though he had the intention of committing a crime, once the little emperor became suspicious, all the careful arrangements in the early stage would be in vain.
Stealing the soldier talisman can certainly threaten Wei You, but the problem before him is, where did Wei You hide this soldier talisman?Most ordinary people would carry such an important thing with them, but how could a thoughtful person like Wei You put it away at will?Thinking about it, Shen Si didn't think it was strange at all. Since Wei You dared to be in the same room with him, he had taken all precautions, and he couldn't easily succeed.Or...should we do the opposite and check those inconspicuous places...
After tossing and tossing for most of the night, the next day he slept until the sun was deep in meditation before getting up lazily. He tidied up his crumpled clothes, washed his face indiscriminately, and saw Wei You himself carrying a steaming meal and leaving Come in.
Wei You put the meals on the table one by one, then turned around and said with a smile, thinking, "I just said that you grew up, but in a blink of an eye you woke up like you were a child. You really shouldn't be allowed to drink so much wine yesterday. You I don’t know how soundly you slept in the morning, do you? Even if you draw a bastard on your face with a brush, you still don’t feel it.”
Shen Si raised his sleeve and wiped it away, wiped off the remaining water stains on his face, then grabbed a steamed bun with his bare hands and gnawed on it: "I'm already married, and I still think about the stupid things I did when I was young, don't you?" Where did you get old again?"
Wei You pursed her lips: "How is it stupid to draw a bastard? You are not good at chess and you are unwilling to admit defeat, and you are so proud that you painted a water-avoiding turtle on your face. When you cross the Yupai River, you won't sink to the bottom again."
Shen Si swallowed the steamed buns in two or three mouthfuls, rolled his eyes: "You also said that you are a turtle that avoids water, who told you to draw a dry buffalo, which made me almost become a ghost at the bottom of the pond."
They were joking with each other about the past, when suddenly someone came down to report that the third son, Wei Qian, and his party had returned to the camp with food and supplies.Wei You immediately ordered the visitor: "Go and ask the third brother to come over and talk, and teach him to let go of the matter at hand."
After about half a cup of tea, the subordinate returned, followed by Wei Qian and another burly man.
The light in the tent was much darker than the outside, Wei Qian's eyes were dark when he walked in, he didn't notice who was sitting in the room, he yawned a little tiredly, and nodded towards Wei You very casually "Brother, I'm back." When he saw Shensi next to Wei You, his expression changed drastically, and the corners of his mouth and brows were all tensed up guardedly, "Brother, this...this is...important. How can you be so nonsense!"
Wei You seemed to have never heard of his younger brother's questioning, so he waved lightly and said, "Shu Yuan, come quickly, this one is the Shen Xiaowu I always mentioned. I remember when you and Zhong Chang went to Lanyue Mountain Visiting as brother, I met him once, but at that time he was just a stupid kid, and now he has grown into a tall man, I'm afraid you won't recognize him anymore."
Ever since Wei Qian entered the door, Shen Si had been paying attention to the opponent's every move. He could see very clearly that Wei Qian obviously recognized himself before Wei Youdai introduced him, so he suddenly became nervous.
Without waiting for Wei Qian to react, Shen Si got up first to salute and said: "Brother Shuyuan, Shen Si, Shen Nianqing, you and I are old acquaintances according to Yu Boling, and seeing you today is really extraordinary. The elder brothers are in trouble because of my Shen family. I have worked tirelessly with all my heart and mind, and there is no reward for contemplation, so thank you in advance.”
He clasped his fists on his chest, bowed his head and nodded, and stared at Wei Qian from the corner of his eye.Hearing what he said, Wei Qian's throat wriggled first, and then a drop of sweat trickled down his temples to his chin.
After a long silence, Wei Qian replied with a pale face and a smile on his face: "So it's Young Master Shen, Wei Qian can't bear the word 'thank you'."
This obvious hostility made Shen Si conclude that Wei Qian was by no means simple.
At this time, Shensi noticed the dark-skinned man standing behind Wei Qian all the time. Thinking of what several Jialan guards said yesterday, "Brother Lu went out with the third son on business", he stared at him for a while, deliberately He leaned closer and asked, "I heard that there is a master swordsman surnamed Lu in Jialan Guard. I saw that this man has strong shoulders and strong limbs, but is it the legendary Brother Lu?"
The man was not wary that Shen Si would suddenly ask him a question, he was stunned for a moment, and hastily clasped his fists together and said, "I'm right here. However, Lu has only studied saber techniques a little bit, and I really dare not be called a master."
At the moment when his left palm covered his right fist, thunder and lightning flashed in his mind, the hurricane roared, and the sound of "coaxing" almost burst into flames.He could see clearly that the man was missing half of his left little finger, and it was the mysterious killer he was looking for.He slowly touched his waist with five fingers, and tightly grasped the hilt of the sword. The sword seemed to have a spirituality, buzzing in the sheath, and almost broke free.
Shen Si deliberately pretended to be concerned, but because he tried his best to suppress his emotions, the corners of his lips could not help trembling slightly: "Hey, brother Lu's hand seems to have been injured, the so-called 'two swords look away, one sword looks at the hand', yes For those of us who practice martial arts, hands and feet are the ones who eat, so we must not be sloppy."
The two had never met each other before, thinking about this concern made the other party feel a lot more uncomfortable, the man surnamed Lu quickly cast a glance at Wei Qian, then hurriedly lowered his arm and hid his disabled hand back in his sleeve: "Oh... ...Thank you for reminding me, my lord, it's just a small injury I accidentally suffered when I was out on business, and it's gone now."
Shen Si followed the man's eyes and looked at Wei Qian. It happened that Wei Qian also raised his eyes to look at him. The two eyes interlaced. Wei Qian seemed to be burned, and hurriedly turned his head away.Naturally, Shen Si didn't want to miss this great opportunity to track down the real culprit, and asked the surnamed Lu word by word: "Look at the uneven wound on Brother Lu's finger, it doesn't look like a sword wound, it's more like being bitten off. It's..." He was obviously asking the Jialan Wei, but his eyes were fixed on Wei Qian all the time, "Could it be that Brother Lu fell in love with a girl from some family, intending to plot evil, and was angered by her and bit off his finger? ?” In order to show that he was joking, he deliberately laughed twice after speaking.
The guard surnamed Lu's eyes flickered, obviously he had been humiliated, but he didn't speak out for a while.On the other hand, Wei Qian cast a cold, silent glance, implying murderous intent.
Although Wei You stayed out of the matter, she also felt that the pensive joke was a bit too much, and immediately stopped her by saying: "Little Wu, don't mess around, this brother Lu is a well-known gentleman in the Jialan Guard, and he has never been close to women, and he can't do it. Such nasty things as molesting women."
Shen Si nodded towards Wei You, gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, don't blame me, I'm used to being rude, and I always don't know how to make jokes. Shen Si doesn't really care about your character, I just want to see and see How about your sword skills..."
Before he finished speaking, a cold light suddenly appeared, and he drew his sword out of its sheath with a "shua", and went straight to the opponent's heart with a gust of cold wind.That posture is not intended to learn martial arts, it is clearly looking for someone to fight desperately, allowing all his vitals to be exposed to the opponent's knife, and he has no intention of defending.In terms of kung fu alone, the guard surnamed Lu is definitely above Shen Si, but once a person falls into a state of madness, he may be almost invincible.
The guard surnamed Lu saw the sword wind coming, and there was no way to avoid it, so he hurriedly drew his knife to resist, the blade collided with each other forcefully, and sparks flew everywhere with a "clang", shaking the ears of everyone around them numb.The sword was blocked, Shen Si swung the tail of the flood dragon with the help of inertia, twisted the spinner in mid-air, returned his hand and pointed the sword directly at the opponent's lower abdomen."Dengdengdeng" surnamed Lu stepped back a few steps one after another. Seeing his back against the load-bearing column, he lifted his foot vigorously and kicked back, and the whole person passed over Shensi's head, and landed lightly two steps behind Shensi. remote location.
Don't want to think that Shen Si had already prepared, the previous move was to lure him into the bait, seeing that the opponent was already standing behind, Shen Si actually used the iron bridge move, the waist was stronger, the sword was held in both hands, and the lower body was as stable as a rock. Steady on the ground, the upper body suddenly fell backwards.The man surnamed Lu was caught off guard, and a big gash was cut straight from the collarbone to the navel by the tip of the sword. He immediately bled profusely and fell to the ground screaming.If he had stood two inches closer, he would have been gutted and killed on the spot.
Let the opponent roll over on the ground clutching his wound, thinking deeply, he couldn't let go of his hatred, he raised his sword with red eyes and stabbed towards the throat.He had already forgotten that he was in the enemy's camp, and his mind was full of thoughts of one life for another, even if he knew that the other party was only following orders, it was still difficult to reduce the hatred in his heart.The throat is broken, the blood will spurt several feet high, I can't make a sound, I can't breathe, the taste must be very painful.But compared to the torture my sister and brother-in-law endured, it's really nothing!
That contest only happened in a split second, and by the time the Wei brothers reacted, the one surnamed Lu had already fallen into a pool of blood.Jialan Wei was Wei Qian's subordinate, he could never tolerate Shen Si doing whatever he wanted and hurting people's lives under his nose. Seeing the critical situation, he had no time to draw his sword, so he hurriedly picked up the nearest armchair and swung towards Shen Si.
The chair hit on Shen Si's back, and it shattered with a "bang", and the person was also knocked flying a few feet, fell to the ground, and overturned the round table full of dinner plates.In fact, Shensi had already lost his strength, but he was so excited that he didn't notice it. At this moment, his chest was stuffy and painful, he was lying on the ground and panting heavily, and he couldn't get up for a while.
Wei You was caught off guard by Shen Si's performance, and was a little puzzled for a moment. He couldn't figure out why Shen Si would suddenly kill a stranger so aggressively.But seeing Shen Si fell to the ground, he rushed over to help him up immediately.
His subordinate was seriously injured, Wei Qian couldn't help being furious, and immediately came to Shensi with a sword in his hand.Seeing this, Wei You raised his eyebrows: "Shu Yuan! Don't take anyone down for treatment yet!"
Hearing the noise, the guards guarding outside the tent rushed in, seeing the mess on the ground and lying a bloody man lying there, they were shocked on the spot and didn't know what to do for a while.It was Wei You who calmly said: "Swords have no eyes, and it is inevitable to miss and get injured when exercising martial arts. Hurry up and find a medical officer so that you can treat Brother Lu's injuries. As for what happened in the tent today, you must not spread it." See Wei Qian was still glaring in front of him, Wei Youshao had no choice but to comfort his younger brother and said, "You just finished your errands, and you must be exhausted, go down and rest first. I have something else to ask you tonight."
Wei Qian looked at Wei You, then at Wei You's hand firmly on Shen Si's shoulder, clenched his fist and remained silent for a moment, then turned his head and strode out without saying a word.
After everyone rushed to lift the guard surnamed Lu out of the tent, and cleaned up the broken tables and chairs, Wei You rushed out and ordered: "Go and invite He Qianfan and Mr. He." At the same time, he did not forget to blame and ponder , "You too, are you a demon? You don't have a deep hatred, so why bother to hurt others? In the end, it's not me who suffers. Forget it, I'll ask Qian Fan to help you take a look later."
Shen Sisi spoke out to stop him, but he opened his mouth to cough violently at first, but he couldn't stop, coughing so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist, Wei You couldn't help it, and hurriedly stroked his back to help him breathe.The two were very close, their sleeves and skirts scraped together, and in deep thought, they vaguely felt that their arms were crushed by something hard.At first he didn't pay attention, he just thought it was the jade buckle inlaid on Wei You's belt.But when the thing hit his elbow again, Shen Si suddenly remembered that Wei You's belt was plain to the end, without any decoration at all.
He had some vague guesses in his mind, but he wasn't sure yet, so he pretended to be weak, leaned against Wei You's body softly, and rubbed it with his fingers through the cover of his sleeves...
The thing is about two or three inches long and more than an inch wide. It has a curved surface, a head and a tail, and two legs.Wei You actually hid the soldier talisman in the middle of the belt!
What Wei You said was true, although he had relieved a lot of anger by contemplating the bodyguard Lu, but he was the one who suffered in the end.After being hit by Wei Qian, he still couldn't be completely intact. He was coughing and wheezing all afternoon, and the pain between his chest and ribs was endless when he exhaled and inhaled.Fortunately, he hit right and wrong, and thus found the whereabouts of the soldier talisman, which was a blessing in disguise.
Although the Jialan guards guarding outside were tight-lipped about what happened in the tent at noon, their colleagues were hurt by others, so they inevitably felt jealous, and they were not as polite as before when they saw Shensi.There is nothing wrong with this, the guards kept him at a respectful distance, and it was more convenient for him to do things.
After dinner, Wei You still had things to deal with, so he left without saying a word.Taking advantage of the half-true excuse of being unwell, Shen Si also turned off the light early and went to sleep.
The night was getting darker, and there was silence around the tent. Pensive closed his eyes and listened intently to the footsteps of the patrolling guards.Taking advantage of the short gap after a group of guards left, he quietly got up again, slipped out from the small crack that had been pried open in advance on the back of the bed, rolled quickly against the ground in the dark, followed by a diving leap, and he was silent. Xi Yin hid behind the horse post.After quietly waiting for the second batch of guards to pass by, Shen Si stood up and patted the leaves of grass all over his body, carefully groping towards the direction of the Chinese army.
He originally intended to find out the layout of the camp, so that he could retreat quickly after stealing the soldier talisman.Halfway there, I saw two guys dressed as soldiers talking in a low voice while walking.One of them was holding a copper pot in his hand, and the mouth of the pot was still steaming, apparently to deliver tea.The other person reminded him kindly: "The prince is talking in the tent of the third son. It is a waste of time for you to send it there now. It would be better to send it directly to the tent of the third son."
"That's the reason, thank you brother." The water delivery man turned to another direction according to his words.
Shen Si thought for a while, then followed quietly.
Wei Qian's sleeping tent is not very far from Shensi's side tent. Outside the tent is a lush old tree with a crooked neck. Shensi's monkey sprinted up like a few steps, with his feet coiled on the branches, using the leaves to cover the whole The man hung upside down, cut a small hole with a dagger and looked inside.The candles in the room were brightly lit. Brothers Wei You and Wei Qian stood and sat at the table, while the red-faced man Wei Chisheng stood guard outside the door with his shoulders straight. People ran away.
First I heard Wei You asking: "Shu Yuan, did you change the secret letter sent to Runing?"
The tent was too big, the voice was not close enough, the voice inside could not be heard intermittently, Shensi was eager to find out what was going on, so he had to take the risk and sank down, his head and neck almost touching the top of the tent.
"What secret letter?" Wei Qian's tone sounded like he was pretending to be stupid, "Oh...does it have something to do with the Shen family again? It's been so long, and I would have forgotten it if I didn't tell you."
Wei You calmly asked again: "You haven't answered yet, did you change the secret letter?"
Wei Qian was playing with the teacup by himself, without looking at Wei You: "But what did Shen Nianqing say that made the eldest brother come to find his brother's fault? I'm really curious about what drug the eldest brother was drugged by him, so important At this juncture, you actually brought a 'bad root' to your side, you won't forget that he cut off Gu Mingzhang's head to openly provoke the court, right? If the little emperor finds out about this, our ten years of hard work will be in vain."
Wei You smacked his lips, but there was no trace of emotion on his face: "According to this, you really exchanged the secret letter?"
"It's not me!" Wei Qian's neck twitched, obviously angry.
Wei You analyzed slowly: "Only you and my brother know about the secret letter. Although Zhengguang is in charge of delivering the letter, he doesn't know the content of the letter. I wrote the secret letter and put it on the table that day, and went out to discuss things with Zhong Chang. When you came to Zhengguang to get the letter, you were the only one present, and you were the only one who opposed the warning, so who else would it be if you weren’t the one who exchanged the letter?”
After a moment of silence, Wei Qian got angry first, and slapped the table: "I changed it, so what? I can't see you all being indecisive and emotional. You are hiding your strengths and biding your time on Lanyue Mountain, so what have you learned?" To please Shen Nianqing? As for the second brother, he has read the books of sages and sages until his brain is rotten, and he is full of scholars who talk about gentleness, respect, thrift, benevolence, righteousness and morality. He doesn't want to think about how to protect the lives of others if his own life is lost. I said earlier However, the little emperor wants to kill Shen Wei, but few people know about it. Who can guarantee that he will let us brothers know that he is not setting up a trap to test us? Let's go!"
Wei You tapped the table with his fingers, patiently waiting for his younger brother to finish speaking, and then said quietly: "I regard Shen Nianqing as my own younger brother, no different from you and Zhong Chang. As for Old General Shen, it is Nianqing." Father, I want to keep him safe because of Nianqing. If one day, I also abandon you for the sake of the overall situation, what do you think? Besides, since I wrote the letter, it is naturally well thought out and pre-planned. Think about the countermeasures in case the matter is revealed and the little emperor becomes suspicious. You can't even trust me in such a trivial matter, so why bother to help me seize the throne."
These words don't sound like much at first glance, but upon careful thought, Wei Qian hastily confessed: "You and I are brothers from the same mother, and I am willing to help you. But who is Shen Nianqing?" I, Wei Qian, can be a pig or a dog for my elder brother, and I can pretend to be crazy and foolish in front of the little emperor for my elder brother, but I can't tolerate everything that I have worked so hard to end up being taken advantage of by outsiders."
Wei You smiled wryly and sighed: "Shu Yuan, you're thinking wrong..."
"I didn't make a mistake!" Wei Qian hurriedly said, "Second brother is a nerd and doesn't understand anything, I understand! Over the years, I know who you have in your heart, and who you will lose your head for! Big brother, you I want to be an emperor. The emperor has always been a widow. He has no father, no mother, no wife, and no children. How can there be so many emotions and desires? Shen Nianqing, Shen Nianqing, brother, don't forget the truth that "one son loses everything if he makes a mistake". Our brothers Bearing the burden of humiliation and sacrificing one's life for the sake of the emperor's great cause, not some gifted scholar or beautiful woman!"
Shen Si still wanted to continue listening, but unexpectedly a flying insect passed in front of him and was inadvertently sucked into his nose. It was so itchy that he even rushed out with the cough he had managed to suppress.Although it was two very light sounds, it still alarmed Yu Chisheng who was guarding the door, and the red-faced man drew his sword in his hand and shouted loudly: "Who is it?"
After being yelled at by him, the drowsy young men quickly stood up with their swords in their hands and started searching around.Shen Si held her breath and huddled into a ball, hugging the branches and not daring to come out.Fortunately, there was no moon this night, and the place blocked by the leaves was completely dark.
The yelling drew Wei You out, "Zhengguang, what's the matter?"
Yu Chisheng replied truthfully: "Just now there was a sudden sound, it seemed that someone was coughing, but after searching around, there was no suspicious person."
Wei You looked around suspiciously, and saw that all the young people on patrol had returned in vain, guessing that it was not a big deal, so he casually comforted Yu Chisheng and said: "There are often owls around, and it is most annoying to come out at night. , maybe you misheard the bird call as a cough..."
Meditating on the tree, the cat remained motionless until midnight, until the fourth watch before quietly climbing down and sneaking back to the side tent where he lived.He thought over and over the few words he heard from Wei Qian, and seemed to realize something.This Wei Qian actually regarded himself as a stumbling block on Wei You's road to the emperor, so he tried every means to get rid of himself.
If it is said that he exchanged the letters in order to make Wei You and the Shen family completely draw a line, and then gain the trust of the little emperor, then what is the purpose of killing his sister and brother-in-law?Could it be that...his subordinates confusedly took Feng Zhuosheng as himself, and wanted to wipe out the Shen family?Doing so can not only cut off future troubles, but also cover up his deeds forever...
Based on this, could the officers and soldiers who heard the news and arrived at the Yaowang Temple in the suburbs of Beijing also be related to Wei Qian?But it's not right, when the officers and soldiers arrived, he was walking with Wei You, if he hadn't acted wisely at that moment and stabbed himself, and then put the handle of the knife into Wei You's hand, Wei You would have been imprisoned for the crime of harboring a fugitive. People's house.
Could it be... Wei Qian was already prepared, even if he didn't make a move that day, someone would stab him to show Xiangfan County King's loyalty and selflessness?Thinking of this meditation, I can't help but feel chills down my spine. The three brothers of the Wei family have very different personalities. Who would have thought that the youngest one would be the most ruthless.That being the case, why not make more articles about him...
In the next few days, Wei You did not tell Shen Si the content of the conversation with Wei Qian that night, and Shen Si naturally did not ask any more secrets about the secret letter.Wei Qian deliberately avoided Shensi, but the two of them lived in peace.
The ten-day period set with King Jin is gradually approaching, and what Shen Si has to do is almost ready.In addition to explaining his decision to leave to Wei You, he also pretended to make a request, hoping to say goodbye to Wei Qian in person.Even though Wei You felt reluctance in his heart, he also knew that no matter how hard Shen Si made up his mind to change, he could only patiently pull Wei Qian over to have a drink with Shen Si.
As Shen Si said, after leaving the barracks, the two of them wanted to kill each other again in the Chuhe-Han Realm, so the atmosphere during the banquet was also very dull.
After the meal was over and the wine was gone, Wei You kept talking about one car after another, but he hesitated to speak after several times of meditation.At the end of her patience, Shen Si simply stood up in front of Wei You, knelt down on one knee and bowed down: "Bo Ling, actually I came here to ask for something, but after thinking about it for the past few days, I really can't open my mouth. "
The two brothers of the Wei family were taken aback by the thoughtful action, and Wei You hurriedly reached out to help him: "Xiao Wu, what do you mean? Just say what you have to say!" After helping him up, he was helpless He said with a smile, "I've seen too much of your pompous appearance, and I'm not used to the occasional low eyebrow."
Although Wei Qian didn't speak, two gazes poked at Shen Si like icy notes.
Shen Si didn't care, this scene was intended to be played out for him: "Bo Ling, if you want me to tell you the truth, I'll go all out and not hide anything. I think... Please stay here for three months and don't move."
Before Wei You could speak, Wei Qian stood up abruptly: "Shen Nianqing, you are really ridiculous. You are the male favorite of the King of Jin, and you don't want to keep yourself safe, yet you still come to Xiangfan County King to beg for cheap. Is it a child's play for the two armies to fight? How dare you say that you are stationed in March and do not move, but you regard yourself as Baosi and Daji?"
Shen Si ignored his sarcasm, and just said to Wei You: "You and I have been together day and night, and spent three years in the academy together. I will exchange these three years of love for you for three months, how about it?"
Wei Qian was so angry that he laughed instead: "Ha, haha, three years of love? Don't you feel ashamed of a grown man? My elder brother already has a wife and concubine, Liu's sister-in-law is seven months pregnant, and her son will be born soon. At that time, the father was kind and the son was filial, and the husband and wife were harmonious. What are you, you also came to talk about love..."
Suddenly there was a crisp "pa", Wei Qian's words were planned, Shen Si looked up, and saw a huge palm print clearly appeared on Wei Qian's cheek.Wei You actually slapped his younger brother, which was unexpected by Shen Si.
After a moment of silence, Wei You said in a deep voice: "Okay, Xiao Wu'er, I will take your three-year friendship, and from now on, I will not move, only three months!" After finishing speaking, he turned and left the tent.
For a long time, Wei Qian touched his red and swollen cheek in disbelief, as if he just realized that he had been beaten.He stared blankly at the corner of the wall for a while, and then stared blankly at meditation for a while, his eyes were as indifferent as if he was looking at a corpse that had already rotted and smelled.
Although he was about to leave, the tonic prescription prescribed by Niu Huang was still prepared and brought over.It's just that the attendant who delivered the medicine this time was an unfamiliar face, and he had never seen it before. From the time he entered the door to the time when he put the medicine bowl on the table, he never looked up, but sneaked a few times of contemplation from the corner of his eye.
After the man left, Shen Si walked to the table and picked up the medicine bowl, and when he was about to put it to his mouth, he saw a few black shadows passing by in the gap under the felt curtain.Things seem to be different from what he expected.
Shen Si raised his head nonchalantly, when the medicine bowl was put back on the table, it was clean and bottomed out.Seeing that the saber was still hanging on the wall, he wanted to turn around and untie it, but he fell to the ground without warning after taking two steps...
