"If you want to marry me as your wife, you will, but not as your concubine!"
"Jin Wushu, I like you!"
…
Who said such sweet words, and then, it turned into a life and death situation
He touched his shoulder, and the scar on it was still aching faintly. It was the arrow she shot. The original hatred was still so clear - it was for Yue Pengju!
But, where should I start to hate her
For a moment, he suddenly thought, if she is willing to marry him, what's the harm in marrying her as his wife
He shook his head violently, trying to shake off this absurd melancholy. Maybe, if there was no chance of meeting again in this life, there would be no marriage.
…
I went to bed that night, but I was still restless. When I got up at dawn, I saw a person kneeling at the door, with a soft voice: "Mr. Sir, please wash up..."
This person was Wang Junhua, the wife of Qin Hui. After she was captured in the Jin camp, she was humiliated. Later, she took refuge with Jin Wushu and returned south as a prisoner. She went back with her and became Jin Wushu's concubine.
She was said to be a concubine, but she was an out-and-out maid at first. She had to do all kinds of menial work, and she was not used to the food customs of the Jin Kingdom. However, she was smart and charming, not as good as other Song girls, and she changed quickly. Wearing the clothes of a Jurchen woman, learning the local language, and thoroughly integrating into it, she tried every possible means to please Jin Wushu. She knew that Jin Wushu was different from other Jin generals, so she often tried to figure out what he meant, and served him according to the customs of the Southern Dynasties. Therefore, gradually, among all the maids, Jin Wushu was favored the most.
Among Jin Wushu's concubines, there was also Princess Tianwei. She was young and did not know how to flatter her. Although she was much more beautiful than Wang Junhua, Jin Wushu disliked her for being childish and boring. He usually paid little attention to her, but did not treat her. She was abused, so she lived alone in a house and lived by herself, but she still had to pay respects to Jin Wushu from time to time.
The news of Jin Wushu's wedding has spread, and both of them have heard about it. This family is about to have a new mistress. The temperament of the mistress will affect whether they can live a stable life here in the future. From an emotional point of view, the two of them They all said they didn't want Jin Wushu to marry, but this couldn't be stopped. The real wife was coming soon, so they could only pray secretly that the woman wouldn't be a tigress.
Naturally, Princess Tianwei could only pray secretly, but Wang Junhua was quite scheming and did not want to sit still and wait for death. In the past few days, he was extremely active, directing the female servants at home to tidy up everything, hoping to give the mistress a good impression. At the same time, he asked The fourth prince inquired about some situations.
Jin Wushu practiced martial arts and always got up early. Wang Junhua wanted to please him. In the ice and snow of the North, he also followed local customs and got up earlier than the Jin women. Every day, he made tea and served him water.
This morning, Jin Wushu went out and saw Wang Junhua coming in with soup for washing his face. He was very surprised. He saw Wang Junhua today, dressed in Hanfu. Although there was no decoration, she vaguely looked a bit like the former "No. 1 Lady" "The splendor and splendor of the country.
After Song Nu returned to the camp, although there was no longer a forcible order not to wear Hanfu, everyone followed the local customs and all dressed up as Jin people.
After Jin Wushu returned from the sea, he had never seen such attire again. When he saw it, he suddenly thought of Hua Rong and her smile. His heart skipped a beat. When he was about to speak, he heard Wang Junhua's soft and charming voice: "Lang Jun... The fourth prince…”
This voice was too gentle, with a soft and thoroughly flattering tone, as if he was raising a loyal domestic dog.
When Jin Wushu saw clearly that it was Wang Junhua, his enthusiasm immediately cooled down and turned into intense disappointment.
Hua Rong, how could it be Hua Rong? !
Wang Junhua's eyes flashed, and he was thinking that the fourth prince must be happy, but he saw Jin Wushu's expression changed, and he shouted: "What are you doing? In Daijin, you must abide by the duties of a Daijin woman, don't overstep it, go and change it quickly Pack… "
Wang Junhua originally did this because he knew that he liked to dress up as Southern Dynasty women. When he learned that he was about to get married, he felt sad. After thinking about it, he made a strange move to get him to favor him more. He didn't expect to be shouted at by him so much that he quickly knelt down. He kowtowed and said, "Mr. Sir, please calm down. I realize my mistake and will change it immediately..."
Jin Wushu's face was full of sternness: "Next time if you violate it again, you will not be left here!"
"I don't dare, I don't dare anymore."
With a teardrop on her face, like pear blossoms with rain, she bowed hastily, turned around and ran away.
Jin Wushu suddenly stopped her: "What is Qin Hui doing?"
When Wang Junhua heard her ask about her husband, he quickly said: "He is still shepherding sheep..."
"You go back and ask him to come here."
Wang Junhua was very surprised: "What are your orders from Mr. Lang? He is so embarrassed that he is afraid of bumping into Mr. Lang..."
"An envoy from the Song Dynasty has arrived. This prince may need him this time."
Wang Junhua was overjoyed when he heard that he wanted her husband to serve. He immediately said, "I'll call him right now."
Qin Hui lived under a tent in Jin Wushu's territory. He was also subordinate to Jin Wushu, but his status was slightly higher than that of other Han slaves. He was responsible for supervising the sheep on this grassland.
When he saw his wife coming out of the fourth prince's residence in a charming manner, he naturally knew what they were up to. His wife was often used as a bed-warming tool for other men. Even though she was a prisoner, he felt a little unhappy.
Wang Junhua sighed when he saw him. Then he looked at him in these days of slave life. He was dressed in golden clothes, with a haggard face, and a smell of sheep and grass. In addition, Qin Hui was not tall, and his appearance was so insignificant. Can it be compared to Yushu Linfeng in Jin Wushu
She felt angry and sneered: "What are you doing?"
"My wife has been gone for many days, and I am also worried about her..." Qin Hui lowered his voice, "I'm afraid you only know how to serve the fourth prince..."
Wang Junhua was furious and slapped him in the face: "You're such a talented person, if I hadn't served the fourth prince, you would have been sent to do hard work like other slaves. How could you do such an easy job here?" ? Many officials in the Song Dynasty are building city walls, why don't you try it?"
Since coming to the Kingdom of Jin, Wang Junhua's temper has become stronger day by day. In front of Jin Wushu and in front of her husband, they are two completely different people. The tigress gene in the body has been completely exposed.
Qin Hui completely relied on his wife to stoop down and serve others, so he naturally became more and more "henpecked" and did not dare to say anything. Since he had not seen her for many days and there was no entertainment in this bitter cold north, he hugged his wife and asked for sex. Wang Junhua's anger was not extinguished and he followed him OOXX for a while, but I felt nothing, and I despised him even more in my heart. I put on my clothes hastily and said coldly: "This time the envoys of the Song Dynasty came to the Kingdom of Jin, the Fourth Prince may need you, you must do a good job Be prepared and work hard. Whether we can turn around and become rich depends on this time... "
Qin Hui was overjoyed, "I will definitely seize this opportunity, Madam, don't worry."
Wang Junhua stood up and tidied up a little: "The Shooting Willow Festival is here. It is a major event for the fourth prince to get engaged. There are many things in the house that require my help. I don't have time to come back these days. Please pay more attention to everything."
"Thank you ma'am for the pointer, I'll take care of it myself."
Hua Rong and others stayed in the post house for two days. The Jin State had an arrogant attitude and was only responsible for arranging food and accommodation every day. It seemed that in everyone's eyes, the peace negotiations between the two countries were far inferior to the "She Liu Festival" Important, manpower and material resources have been concentrated on the preparation and arrangements for this matter.
Yu Wenxu couldn't sit still. This was much worse than the conditions promised by the Jin envoy. The group was trapped in the post house, with nothing to do and fear of any accidents. Fortunately, he was mature and prudent, and after several discussions, he decided An Xin can wait here until the "Willow Shooting Festival".
Hua Rong couldn't sit still, so he, Zhang Xian and others traveled through the streets and alleys of Yanjing City all day long in the name of selling tea, and soon became very familiar with this city.
What she paid attention to along the way was naturally the whereabouts of the Queen Mother.
When Wei Shi first came to the Jin Kingdom, in order to humiliate Zhao Deji, they sent her to the "Laundry House". Then, the Song-Jin peace talks began, and she went through several twists and turns. Her whereabouts are still unknown. The only information Hua Rong can find is this. And they dare not publicize it on a large scale, and it is even more difficult to find them.
That afternoon, the weather cleared up, and she and Zhang Xian were waiting to eat tea and fruits at the familiar shopkeeper. They heard the sound of horse hooves, and soon saw a group of Jin people heading towards the post house.
She was going back to the inn, but then she felt something in her heart, so she sat down and said to the innkeeper: "Innkeeper, the hotel I am waiting to stay in is very unsatisfactory. Can I make it easier for you to stay here?"
In the past two days, the shop owner has become familiar with them. Seeing her generous gestures and knowledgeable conversation, he naturally responded: "Brother, there is no need to be polite, just come and stay. The shop has three empty rooms. Although it is not good, I will call my wife right away ( Wife) cleans up and calls the little brother happy... "
Hua Rong was overjoyed and immediately handed him a piece of silver: "In this case, the store owner will be helped."
Hua Rong did not make a mistake. This group of gold people was going to the post house, and the leader was none other than Wu Qiang, a Han official under Zong Han.
Yu Wenxuzhong waited for a long time before he saw the person coming. He immediately saluted: "I'll pay a visit to the eldest prince..."
Wu Qiang looked very arrogant: "The eldest prince is not free, so he sent me to take a look. If you need anything, just ask."
Yu Wenxuzhong said quickly: "Thank you very much, the eldest prince, for your kindness."
Wu Qiang looked around and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, everyone is catching up with Daikin's Shooting Willow Festival, so you still need to stay at Tongwen Hall for some time..."
Yu Wenxuzhong's expression changed. He was a Jinshi, so he naturally knew that "Tongwen Pavilion" was the building used to receive Korean envoys after the beginning of Taizu of this dynasty. Today, the Jin Kingdom embassy originally had no name, but Wu Qiang called it " "Tongwenguan" naturally reduced the Song Dynasty to the status of a vassal state, which meant humiliating the Song envoys.
He knew the other party's intention, but he had no choice but to invite everyone to sit down and arrange it carefully.
Hua Rong inadvertently blended in with the entourage. She could be seen and heard clearly. She did not show up and quietly went to the next door.
Wu Qiang looked around and said, "Are all the important envoys from the Song Dynasty here?"
Yu Wenxu glanced at everyone. According to Zhao Deji, he was the only one who knew Hua Rong's identity and had never been given any position. He was only regarded as a special entourage. When he saw Hua Rong's absence, he did not mention it and only nodded. Head: "Yes, the important envoys are all here..."
Then, he introduced everyone's status, rank, and names one by one, introducing thirteen relatively important people, and did not introduce the remaining dozens of followers one by one.
After the introduction, the person next to him took out a brocade box and handed it to Wu Qiang: "This is a little gift for adults..."
When he arrived in the Kingdom of Jin, he bribed all the important officials, which was agreed upon. Yu Wenxu observed his words and gave gifts according to his ability, which won the favor of the Jin people. Wu Qiang was obviously very satisfied with this gift. After seeing it, he handed it to his entourage and then took the initiative to say : "The eldest prince is busy these days. I will see you when he is free..."
"Thank you, eldest prince."
Hua Rong was in the dark, and when she saw Wu Qiang and others walking away arrogantly, she slowly came out. At this time, the people had dispersed, and only Yu Wenxuzhong was left sitting in the room with an anxious look on his face.
Seeing her coming in, Yu Wenxu stepped back and Hua Rong said in a low voice: "Master Yuwen, I may not be staying in the post house these days. I have found another place to inquire about the Queen Mother's whereabouts..."
"Okay, just be careful."
Hua Rong added: "I think the attitude of the Jin people during this trip is so arrogant, I guess the situation is not optimistic."
Yu Wenxuzhong's face was also full of sorrow. At this time, he was full of worries and fears, fearing that if he did not go as he wished, he would offend the Jin people and become the shepherd Su Wu.
Seeing that he was helpless and timid, Hua Rong didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just said goodbye and went out quietly to stay in a small shop outside.
As soon as she left with her front foot, Wu Qimai stepped into the post house with her back foot.
Yu Wenxuzhong did not dare to offend the Jin people, but Wu Qimai's attitude was much more polite than Wu Qiang. He accepted the gift, looked around, and asked Yuwen Xuzhong: "Is everyone waiting here?"
"It's all here."
"All of them here?"
At this time, except for Hua Rong and three other people, everyone else was indeed in the post house. Yu Wenxu didn't know why, so he hesitated and said, "A few of your followers have gone out to summon you. What advice do you have, Master Wu?"
Wu Qimai laughed loudly: "It's okay. I was just asking casually."
His understanding of the southerners was much deeper than that of Wu Qiang and others. He looked at everyone and saw that they were all trembling with fear. He was very satisfied, turned around and left, walked out, and hurried to Jin Wushu's residence.
