Celebrating the Year of the Fish: A Princess is Not a Concubine[GL]

[one four two]

The coachman was driving ahead for an unknown amount of time, when it started to rain.

No one paid attention to how heavy the rain was. Outside the car, the sound of thunder and rain intertwined.

But inside the car, it was quiet.

Wei Huanian just hugged Zhou Jinyu and didn't say a word. Wan Qiu quietly watched over them, not daring to make a sound.

In the end, it was Wan Qiusheng who was afraid that Wei Huanian would suffer from the exhaustion, so he said, "Master, please eat something."

Wei Huanian remained silent.

Wan Qiu held the pastry in her hand, and silently took it back.

That rain had been raining for a long time, and the rain was rushing against the ground, but it still didn't stop.

But the person in Wei Huanian's arms suddenly moved.

To be precise, her fingers moved.

Wei Huanian thought she had misread it, so she hurriedly looked at the man's closed eyes, and called her softly, "Consort...consort."

Zhou Jinyu's eyelids moved, and she slowly opened her eyes, and found Wei Huanian's worried face in front of her eyes. Then, the shaking of the carriage made her dizzy, and she forced a smile at the girl : "Princess, how long have I been asleep?"

She didn't ask Wei Huanian why he was here. When she wrote to Wei Huanian but Wei Huanian didn't write back to her, she already had a guess in her mind.

Wei Huanian touched her face, and replied softly, "I don't know either, I only know that it's been a long, long time."

Zhou Jinyu let out a "tsk", trying to sit up with all his strength, but found that he couldn't use any strength, so he could only resign himself to his fate and continue to fall into Wei Huanian's arms, sighing: "Um... After sleeping for so long, let the princess worry."

Wei Huanian just looked at her quietly, even if there was joy in her eyes, it was calm. She tried her best to restrain herself, she was afraid that Zhou Jinyu would faint again, no matter how much she called her, she didn't respond.

Wei Huanian said warmly: "My son-in-law, we are almost arriving at the capital. When we arrive in the capital, we will go to the Qianlong Temple to meet the abbot."

Zhou Jinyu nodded slightly: "Well, okay, speaking of it, I haven't seen Master for a long time."

After Zhou Jinyu finished speaking, she looked at Wei Huanian's face. She just looked at her like that, as if this person was very familiar, yet she felt very strange.

Wei Huanian asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

Zhou Jinyu smiled and said, "The princess is still so pretty. I suddenly feel like I haven't seen you for a long time when I wake up."

Wei Huanian laughed at her words: "Are you sleepy?"

Zhou Jinyu said with a smile, "Maybe, he never woke up."

The rain outside was still falling sporadically, Zhou Jinyu still struggled to sit up from Wei Huanian's arms, insisting on opening the car curtain to watch the rain.

It's a rare rain, if you can't see it, it would be a pity.

She is not a person who can compose poems because of everything in nature, but she has an inexplicable liking for rain and snow. Woolen cloth?

The carriage drove for another day, and that night, Zhou Jinyu and his party finally arrived at Qianlong Temple. The young monk from the temple told Zhou Jinyu that Master Kongzhi was already waiting for her in the meditation room.

Master Kongzhi is an eminent monk, he had already calculated that Zhou Jinyu would come tonight, so he had already been waiting.

Zhou Jinyu was helped by Wei Huanian and Wan Qiu into Master Kongzhi's meditation room. Master Kongzhi was sitting on a futon and meditating, apparently in meditation.

The little novice said: "Two benefactors, Master just explained, only brother Jinyu is here, please come with me."

Wei Huanian glanced at Zhou Jinyu, obviously worried.

Zhou Jinyu joked: "It's okay, princess, go and drink some tea. The tea here is made from mountain spring water, which is better than the one in our house. If you don't drink a few big bowls before leaving, it must be loss."

Wei Huanian smiled, nodded and said, "Okay."

After the person left, the door of the meditation room was closed by the little novice from the outside.

Seeing that Master Kongzhi was still meditating, Zhou Jinyu knelt down on the open space in front of him, and said respectfully, "Master, my disciples are here to see you."

Master Kongzhi slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zhou Jinyu below, his eyes were calm, but his words were a bit airy: "Did the teacher tell you that you are not in good health, so you should not worry about it?"

Zhou Jinyu lowered his head and replied sullenly, "Yes, you said so."

Master Kongzhi asked: "Then how did you do it? You said that you contracted the plague in Yong'an, and the true energy in your body ran away, and you almost lost your life!"

Zhou Jinyu raised his head, smiled flatteringly and said, "Isn't it all right, apprentice, it's all right now."

Master Kongzhi snorted coldly: "You, you, if something happens to you, how can I explain to your mother, I'm already old, how can I face her?"

Zhou Jinyu hurriedly said: "Master, you'd better not tell my mother about my illness. Besides, I'm already cured now."

Master Kongzhi said: "You, come forward."

Zhou Jinyu got up and approached him obediently.

Master Kongzhi grabbed her wrist, then stretched out his hand, and cut on her pulse.

After feeling the pulse for a while, he suddenly said: "You...you..."

Zhou Jinyu was taken aback: "Master, is there anything else I can do?"

Master Kongzhi said angrily: "This time, you have made some mistakes. Although most of your internal energy has been eliminated, you are not in danger of your life at all."

Zhou Jinyu said with a smile: "Look at what I said, I have always been very lucky, and I can't die no matter what."

Master Kongzhi said angrily, "Shut up!"

Zhou Jinyu quickly lowered his head and replied, "Hey, disciple understands."

Master Kongzhi hated iron but steel and said: "Don't you know what your body looks like? If you go on like this, even if Buddha is willing to bless you, you won't be able to withstand your tossing."

Zhou Jinyu nodded obediently: "Well, this disciple will pay attention next time."

Master Kongzhi said: "Okay, it's already midnight, go and rest."

Zhou Jinyu didn't answer, but looked at Master Kongzhi and asked, "Master, I don't understand something, and I want to ask Master to clarify."

Master Kongzhi asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Jinyu thought for a while and asked: "When I was unconscious, I had a dream. In that dream, I was in a grassland with a child in my arms, and I was running away from the officers and soldiers. In the end, I didn't escape. The child was handed over to a woman, and the disciple followed the officers and soldiers back."

Master Kongzhi just listened quietly without answering.

Zhou Jinyu said: "I want to know, is that dream real? If it is true, why can't I remember anything?"

Master Kongzhi said: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not. You can't remember anything now, maybe it's not a bad thing."

Zhou Jinyu asked: "Master, I can be sure that everything that happened in that dream is true, but I don't remember anything."

Master Kongzhi asked her, "Do you want to remember?"

Zhou Jinyu nodded: "I think, master, can you make a divination for me, and then tell me what's going on."

Master Kongzhi smiled, shook his head and said: "Some things, when it's time for you to remember, you will naturally remember. It's too early to say these things now."

Zhou Jinyu didn't understand Master Kongzhi's words, but she really couldn't forget what happened in this dream.

But since Master Kongzhi was unwilling, she did not force it.

So she saluted, exited the meditation room, and followed the little monk back to the meditation room arranged for her.

At this time, Wei Huanian had already laid out the brocade quilt, it was already late at night, and the whole temple was very quiet.

A lamp was lit on the table, and the wick was crackling.

Zhou Jinyu walked up to Wei Huanian and asked her, "Princess, are you tired?"

Wei Huanian shook his head lightly: "It's okay."

Zhou Jinyu smiled, took her hand, led her to the bed, pressed her shoulders to let her sit on the bed, then raised his hand, and squeezed her shoulders.

Zhou Jinyu helped her knead and relax, while laughing: "I remember that I often did this for my mother when she was tired. My mother always said that if the Zhou family's family business died one day, I would not die of hunger for this skill." , go to a rich family’s house and be a rough girl, and you can make a living.”

Wei Huanian smiled and said: "I'm afraid that the family business of this palace will not be defeated for a while. If your Zhou family loses, you can come to my palace and be a girl."

Zhou Jinyu was stunned, and said with a smile: "Okay, but the princess, I am very expensive, you must remember to give the money."

Wei Huanian smiled and said, "Okay."

Zhou Jinyu thought for a while and said, "Squeeze your shoulders for ten taels, beat your legs for 20 taels. As for warming the bed to sleep with, I'm afraid it will cost 100 taels."

With his eyes closed, Wei Huanian responded to everything she said, and when he heard the last sentence, he suddenly opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows to look at her: "Sleeping with me?"

Zhou Jinyu paused, coughed lightly, and said with a smile, "Ahem, I am the most important place in Buddhism, I am presumptuous."

Wei Huanian covered his mouth and chuckled, Zhou Jinyu also smirked.

The meditation room was simple and simple, and after a simple wash, the two of them didn't bother to take a shower, and they were exhausted after traveling all night.

Zhou Jinyu asked Wei Huanian to sleep on the bed. Since she hadn't bathed for several days, she didn't dare to sleep with her, and wanted to make a bed directly on the floor.

Wei Huanian stubbornly asked her to sleep on the bed. Zhou Jinyu was very honest this time, and did not sleep next to Wei Huanian's body as usual, and forcibly separated himself from Wei Huanian by two fists.

She was lying on the bed, the bed boards were stiff, the bed boards in Qianlong Temple had always been like this, after all ascetic monks usually did not have a high bed to warm their pillows for the purpose of tempering their will.

She is very used to it, but she is worried that Wei Huanian is not used to sleeping.

After a while, she suddenly felt a warm hand reach out from under the brocade quilt, and then held her.

Zhou Jinyu swallowed nervously, but did not dare to speak.

When she finally wanted to say something to Wei Huanian, she saw that the girl was already breathing steadily, holding her hand, and fell asleep very peacefully.

Celebrating the Year of the Fish: [Second update]

The next day, Zhou Jinyu and Wei Huanian were about to leave Qianlong Temple and head back home.

Only this time, they didn't go directly to West Avenue, but Zhou Jinyu said that it was rare that the rain stopped today, so they went to Chang'an Avenue to buy some fresh gadgets for Xiao Baozi, and took them back as gifts for him.

At this time, Liu Mu had already returned to the mansion, and he dispatched a brigade of guards to follow them. The carriage they were riding was an ordinary carriage that was temporarily found in Yong'an County, but behind this small carriage were two teams of armored men. The guards really made the passing people wonder who was sitting in the carriage.

When the carriage arrived at Chang'an Avenue, the bustle began.

The entire street of Chang'an Avenue is full of small traders who make a living here. The people in Beijing are rich and noble, so most of them here are not from Chang'an, but came from other places.

Zhou Jinyu and Wei Huanian got out of the carriage, and specifically told Liu Mu and the guards: "You wait here, too many people will frighten people, the princess and Wanqiu girl and I can just go in."

Liu Mu was a little worried and said, "My son-in-law, let us follow together."

Zhou Jinyu glanced at him with a smile: "Farewell, with so many of you going in, those vendors are probably scared away, thinking that you are going in to arrest people." She smiled and looked at Wei Huanian: "What does the princess think? "

Wei Hua nodded with a young smile, and ordered: "Liu Mu, just listen to the son-in-law, you wait here, we will come out after we go in and buy."

Seeing that Wei Huanian had said so, Liu Mu could only agree.

Before leaving, Wan Qiu glanced at him, and asked shyly, "Brother Liu Mu, do you want any gadgets? I... well, anyway, I'm going to go in with the master, and I'll buy you one by the way."

Liu Mu was flattered and quickly asked, "Do I have a share too?"

Wan Qiu snorted: "Don't forget it."

Liu Mu hurriedly said: "Don't, Miss Wanqiu, as long as you give it to me, I like it."

Girl Wanqiu suddenly became happy, but she pretended to be very reluctant and said: "It's all a matter of convenience, I didn't buy it for you, why are you so happy?"

Liu Mu giggled silly.

Zhou Jinyu and Wei Huanian had already walked away, and Wan Qiu hurriedly followed.

Liu Mu looked at Wanqiu's back, and suddenly found her cute no matter how she looked at her, as if her heart had been wiped with honey.

Both Zhou Jinyu and Wei Huanian were dressed in men's clothing. Although they were only wearing civilian clothes at this time, and because of the toss and wrinkle in their clothes over the past few days, they looked a bit embarrassed, but the girls passing by were still ashamed. Because of their outstanding looks, they took a few more glances.

Zhou Jinyu tilted his head, and said very dissatisfied with Wei Huanian: "Brother Wei, I'm afraid you will make the girls jealous with your outfit."

Wei Huanian looked at her with a smile on his lips, and asked, "Brother Zhou is jealous?"

Zhou Jinyu shook his head: "No, why am I jealous?"

As she said, she hugged Wei Huanian's waist maliciously, then rubbed it lightly a few times, then turned around and made faces at the girls who were snickering and talking to Wei Huanian. .

The girls were startled when they saw this, as if they saw something terrible, they immediately walked away quickly.

The corners of Zhou Jinyu's mouth suddenly couldn't stop rising. Seeing Wei Huanian looking at her helplessly, she suddenly found it funny and burst out laughing.

The two of them walked forward, first they bought two bunches of candied haws for Xiao Baozi, and then fried chestnuts with candied sugar. I plan to go back.

Suddenly a voice came from not far away: "You old man, you are fighting with me, right! I think you don't want to live anymore!"

Zhou Jinyu raised his head suspiciously, looked forward, and saw a lot of people watching the fun in front of a small stall in front of him, and the person who was talking was wearing a long black gown, holding a fan in his hand, and the button on his chest He opened two of them, and cursed at the old man selling tea.

Behind him were several officers and soldiers in armor, who were pushing and shoving the onlookers: "Go, whatever you want to see!"

Zhou Jinyu walked over, only to see that the old tea seller was about to cry, and the old man said to the man in black who was the leader: "My lord, this is the first time I've come back, isn't it just the opening of the market?" , I sold the thirty coins, and I have already given it all to you, so you can spare the villain this time."

The onlookers also began to chime in: "That's right, it's pitiful to see this old man, so forget it."

When the man heard the people's words, he was annoyed and laughed: "I'll spare him? If you come here to set up a stall, you have to pay two liang of silver a day, and that's all he pays. It's a beggar!"

The old man knelt down with a "plop" and was about to kowtow to the man: "Master, please do me a favor, do me a favor, I will send it to you when I have money from the tea sold today."

The man was angry: "Damn! You old man, you can't set up a stall here without money, get out early!"

He said to the officers and soldiers again: "You guys, take his tea and drive him out of Chang'an Avenue!"

The officers and soldiers responded.

But the old man knelt and stepped forward, hugged the man's thigh, still begging for mercy: "My lord, you can't take it away, what should you do if you take away the villain! My lord, please do me a favor, please do me a favor."

The man shook his leg, seeing that he couldn't get rid of the old man, he raised his hand and raised his whip to beat him down.

"stop!"

Zhou Jinyu couldn't stand it anymore, pushed away the crowd and walked up.

The whip that the man just raised was blocked by Zhou Jinyu. She grabbed the man's wrist, and with a little force, the man's wrist hurt, and the whip in his hand fell to the ground.

Zhou Jinyu let go of his arm and asked coldly, "What's going on?"

The man looked at her, and immediately cursed: "You're looking for death! Who are you?"

Zhou Jinyu said: "Why haven't I heard that there are cashiers in Chang'an Avenue? Who asked you to come here to collect cash?"

Hearing what she said, the man suddenly became angry: "Hey? Who am I to say that you are so arrogant, setting up a stall on Chang'an Street to pay money, this is a long-standing rule, what's the matter? You want to take the place of this old man? Has the money been handed over?"

Zhou Jinyu shook his head with a smile: "I don't have any money, but you are an idiot for treating unarmed people like this!"

The man took a look at Zhou Jinyu, and felt that this person was unfamiliar, and looking at her clothes, she was also worn by ordinary people, so she was not a wealthy person.

Thinking of this, he ordered his subordinates: "Bring me this short-sighted person to the yamen and lock him up!"

The soldiers rushed forward after hearing the order.

Zhou Jinyu raised his hand and punched back a soldier who rushed up first, then looked at the others warily.

The man was stunned: "Hey, how dare you do it! Come here, beat her to death!"

Zhou Jinyu saw that there were many people onlookers, if he did something here, it would obviously hurt innocent people.

So she waved her hand immediately: "Wait!"

The man looked at her with the corner of his mouth pulled, and said bitterly: "What's wrong? Are you afraid? I'm afraid it will be too late!"

Zhou Jinyu raised his arms, made a gesture of giving up resistance, and said, "I'll go back to the Yamen with you."

The man ordered viciously: "Catch her!"

Zhou Jinyu had already been held back by two soldiers. The man stepped forward and punched her in the face.

Zhou Jinyu took the punch forcefully. The fist was so hard that it hit her teeth. The teeth scratched her mouth, and the salty taste filled her mouth.

Zhou Jinyu looked at him and said coldly: "You can take me back to the Yamen, but I hope you don't regret it."

When she said this, Wei Huanian and Wan Qiu stood on the periphery of the people watching, and Wan Qiu said anxiously: "Master, what should I do?"

Wei Huanian just said calmly: "The closest to here is General Sun Ying's mansion, you go to his mansion and ask him to bring troops here to see me."

Wan Qiu immediately said: "Yes, master!"

Zhou Jinyu was brought back to Jing Zhaoyin's Yamen by those people, and those people obviously didn't inform Jing Zhaoyin about such a trivial matter, so Zhou Jinyu was directly put into prison.

Zhou Jinyu was pushed in, and the cell door was immediately locked with chains.

The man was outside, looking at Zhou Jinyu inside with a smile, and said, "Boy, let me tell you, no one dares to provoke me on Chang'an Avenue, and you don't even ask, who is I?"

Zhou Jinyu just asked him: "Oh? Then, who are you?"

The guard in the prison said: "Remember boy, this is our lord's son, Master Lu Qianlu!"

Zhou Jinyu nodded, and suddenly realized: "Oh, Mr. Jing Zhaoyin, such a big official, I'm a little scared."

Lu Qian snorted coldly and said: "It's right to know that you are afraid, you will be afraid later." He then ordered the left and right: "Give her a good greeting, beat her until her mother can't recognize her! "

Left and right immediately replied: "Yes, young master!"

Zhou Jinyu looked at him coldly, but suddenly said: "I said, Mr. Lu, have you ever heard of a saying?"

Lu Qian asked her, "What?"

Zhou Jinyu was silent for a while, and said, "This man, don't be too crazy, otherwise, you will regret it."

Lu Qian looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Let me tell you, I, Lu Qian, have never been afraid. Even if you are the crown prince, if you mess with me, I will kill you!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, soldiers from the brigade burst in from outside the prison. The soldiers all held knives and guns in their hands, and they walked in unison, making a "bang bang" sound with every step they took.

They rushed in directly, and the guards were all terrified, and shrank aside, not daring to go forward.

Lu Qian was stunned, and stammered to ask the leading middle-aged general: "General Sun, why are you here, you... are you here to find my father?"

Sun Ying just looked at him coldly and said, "Come on, tie me up!"

Before Lu Qian could react, he was tied up by two soldiers. He shouted, "General Sun, what are you doing! Let me go! Let me go!"

Sun Ying ignored him, but stepped forward in person, took the key from the prison guard, opened the prison door, and saluted Zhou Jinyu: "My son-in-law, I am late for my humble job, I hope my son-in-law will forgive me."

Seeing this, Lu Qian was shocked suddenly, he opened his mouth wide: "Consort... Consort?"

Zhou Jinyu laughed, walked out of the prison, looked at Lu Qian who was tied up and said, "What did I say? Young man, don't be too arrogant, otherwise, you will regret it."

Lu Qian: "..."

Zhou Jinyu continued: "Well... But, I appreciate people who are not afraid of death."

Lu Qian: "No, I..."

Zhou Jinyu interrupted him and asked, "What did you just say? You beat me so that my mother doesn't know me? What else did you say? You said that this capital city belongs to your Lu family? Wow, it turns out , Jing Zhaoyin is an official bigger than the emperor, I'm so scared."

Lu Qian quit now, he immediately looked at Sun Ying and said, "General Sun, I never said that, I didn't! She wronged me, she wronged me!"

Zhou Jinyu asked: "Then you just said, didn't you say you were going to beat me so that my mother doesn't know me?"

Lu Qian said, "Yes, I did, but..."

Zhou Jinyu immediately said to Sun Ying: "General Sun, you heard it too, he admitted it, let's do it."

Sun Ying bowed immediately and said, "Yes, I'm taking orders from a humble position."

Lu Qian was still yelling: "I didn't, I didn't!"

Sun Ying frowned and said angrily, "Bet me on his mouth!"

Zhou Jinyu was satisfied now, and under the guard of the officers and soldiers of the brigade, she swaggered out of Jingzhao Yin Yamen.

And Wei Huanian was waiting for her outside, with girl Wanqiu standing beside her.

She stretched, and suddenly felt that the weather after the rain was just fine.
