MTL - Capture the Jade-Chapter 122 (two)

Abandon wisdom? "

Teng Yuyi looked down in surprise. There was a small road going into the city under the hill, and a group of Bao Niu carts approached. Just by looking at the baggage and servants, he knew that the visitors were valuable.

There was a little boy on a small car who was looking out through the curtains. It was this boy who just said: "Grandpa, Aniang, look, there are Kuannu and Junnu on the hillside."

At a glance, Teng Yuyi guessed the identity of the pedestrian, and she heard Kuan Nu cheering: "Prince, Princess, Second Young Master."

Juesheng and Jizhi also happily ran down the mountain.

After running for a while, he turned back: "Miss Teng, that's Senior Brother's grandfather and mother."

Teng Yuyi had no choice but to bring Duanfu and Junnu down the mountain. A thousand-mile horse stood in front of the calf, and on the horse sat a man in a turquoise robe. He was in his thirties, and his bearing was like ice jade. The clear eyebrows and eyes made Teng Yuyi think of Lin Chengyou all of a sudden.

Half of Lin Chengyou's beauty comes from this man.

Kuan Nu introduced the master from the side.

After listening to Kuannu's reply, King Cheng began to seriously look at the child in front of him.

"Are you Mrs. Teng?"

Teng Yuyi saluted respectfully.

"Good boy, you don't need to be too polite." Cheng Wang's face was calm, but his eyes were warm. He looked at Teng Yuyi for a while, turned his head, and said to the car in a warm voice, "Yaoyao, this child is General Teng's daughter."

Teng Yuyi thought to himself that King Cheng's voice was low and gentle. Just like Grandpa, he had a calming power when he opened his mouth. That kind of majestic character is not natural, but with the increase of experience and age, slowly Those who have slowly settled into their bones, every word and every deed, are all convincing, as if the great things in this world are in front of them, and they are not afraid.

The calf moved immediately, the curtain was lifted, and a young man with a red robe and a golden crown emerged first. He was about thirteen or fourteen years old. He looked a bit like Lin Chengyou, but his eyebrows and eyes were not yet open, and his body was a little thin.

However, that incomparably smart demeanor was exactly the same as Lin Chengyou's. The young master smiled, which made people feel like a spring breeze. He looked at Teng Yuyi friendly and curiously at Junnu who was at Teng Yuyi's feet, and bowed straight to Teng Yuyi. Turn back and lift the curtain.

Soon, another beautiful young woman got off the bus, and she became a princess. The princess was completely unpretentious, and got off the bus when she said she got off.

Teng Yuyi was inexplicably cramped. She had seen it before, but unfortunately it was too far away. This time, she was so close that she found that Princess Cheng's skin was as clear as snow, and her eyes were even more exquisite. Teng Yuyi remembered the rumors about Chengwang and his wife, and couldn't imagine the scene where the princess taught her son personally.

Princess Cheng got out of the car and stood still, her eyes lit up when she saw Teng Yuyi, she and her husband looked at each other with a smile, and waved at Teng Yuyi: "Your name is Yuyi, right? I'm Lin Chengyou's aunt. Come, let me I'll take a good look at you."

Teng Yuyi's chest warmed, and Princess Cheng smiled sincerely. This smile seemed to warm people's hearts. Looking at Cheng Wang Linxiao sitting on the horse again, although he did not smile like his wife, the warmth in his eyes seemed to melt the first snow.

Teng Yuyi felt very cordial, laughed two pears, stepped forward and bowed: "I have seen the princess."

***

two months later.

The battle in Huaixi intensified.

Since the Peng family settled in Huaixi, they have spared no effort to encourage their soldiers to form marriages with the local people. In the past few years, many soldiers in the army have settled down in Huaixi Road. In order to be more filial in front of their fathers, brothers and elders, some generals even Relatives living far away in Guanlong came to live together.

Peng Zhen's reaction, whether the soldiers are willing or not, they have to follow the Peng family to give their lives, because the lives of their relatives are in the hands of the Peng family, and if they dare to sing against the Peng family, they will all be slaughtered.

In terms of winning the hearts of the army, the Peng family has always done a very decent job. Since last year, they have frequently rewarded soldiers. .

Coercion and temptation, the sound of the war drum, Huaixi Road can be said to be united.

In addition, as early as a few years ago, Peng Zhen continued to lobby the Jiedu envoys near Fandao to secretly support each other with him on the grounds that "As soon as the Huaixi troops are surrendered, the Ziqing and Shannan East Roads will be in danger". The four towns in Guanzhong have been watching and helping each other.

On the front feet, the Shence Army and the Zhenhai Navy defeated the 50,000 Peng Army entrenched in Taiyin Cang, and on the back feet Liu Zhengwei of Ziqing and Wang Shibiao of Shannan Dongdao raised their anti-flags one after another.

Liu Zhengwei blocked Xiangyang, and Wang Shibiao sent troops to help Peng Zhen guard Xuzhou's vortex.

Deng Xiang's line, up to Dengzhou down to the vortex mouth, traverses the middle abdomen, guarding the key points. Compared with the Chen Ying waterway, the geographical location is more critical. Once the rebels succeed, not only will the campaign to suppress the rebellion be hit hard, but the entire north-south transportation route will also be in a difficult situation.

According to Peng Zhen's sophisticated layout, he should have been invincible, but unfortunately he encountered his long-standing rival - Teng Shao, the first **** of war in the dynasty. Lin Chengyou.

In addition, someone leaked the secret in advance, and the few moves that Peng Zhen buried in advance were all glimpsed.

From taking advantage of the opportunity to passive defense, the Peng family often lost one after another in just one battle. In less than two months, Teng Shao successfully conquered Xiangzhou and Xuzhou. .

Peng Zhen smashed his halberd into the sand and had to lead the remnants to retreat to Caizhou. The people Liu Zhengwei and Wang Shibiao sent to support Huaixi Road were old, weak and sick. He handed a "criminal case" to the court, saying that he had no remorse, and that the reason why he borrowed troops to Huaixi Road was because he was deceived by Peng Zhen's lies.

In the middle of July, Liu Yunhao, deputy general of Peng Zhen who was guarding Songzhou, was killed by the sergeants in the battalion.

As soon as Songzhou fell, all the counties and seven cities in Caizhou were exposed to the horseshoes of the Zhenhai Navy and the Shence Army. As long as Caizhou was conquered, the world would not be at peace.

When the news came, the court and the public were greatly encouraged.

The first thing Teng Yuyi did every day was to inquire about the war on Huaixi Road. As long as he heard that the war was unfavorable, he would feel uneasy, and if he heard the good news, he would be happy all day.

In the past two months, she did not go to Xiangxiang Academy. Teng Shao was thinking of her daughter's safety and asked the academy for a leave of absence for her daughter before the expedition. Teng Yuyi had a lot of work during the day, and often went out with Juesheng Qizhi to get rid of troubles. .

Recently, some strange evil spirits have often appeared outside Chang'an City. For example, the rare Seven Desires Heaven appeared last time outside Nancheng City, but this time, it is not the python spirit that is entrenched in the array, but a flower monster. , Almost all the traders who passed by that place had a clue.

On that day, when Princess Cheng heard about this, she went to collect the demons with Daoist Qingxuzi. It happened that Teng Yuyi was invited by Azhi to play in Prince Cheng's mansion.

Teng Yuyi got into the car excitedly carrying Xiaoyajian.

But when it was time to kill the demon, Teng Yuyi was far less comfortable in front of Lin Chengyou. No matter how easy-going Princess Cheng was, she was still an elder. No matter how generous Teng Yuyi was, she also had a natural sense of restraint in front of her elders.

Jue Sheng and Jizhi Huchihuchi were helping to collect the demons. When they looked back, they felt strange. Madam Teng was both intelligent and brave. She always showed her fierceness when slashing evil things, but today is different. of.

"Miss Teng, are you sick?"

"Miss Teng, you used to be murderous, why are you so delicate today?"

Teng Yuyi's forehead jumped, she used to see Lin Chengyou scolding junior brother, but today she understands the reason. In front of Princess Cheng and Daoist Master Qing Xuzi, was she embarrassed to "bare her teeth" to kill the demon?

Princess Cheng didn't say a word, she approached and held Teng Yuyi's sword hilt and helped her push forward.

With a puff, the move was neat and tidy, and the spider spirit that had eaten a lot of people in front of him immediately turned into a pool of pus.

Teng Yuyi suddenly felt that his "twisting attitude" was a bit redundant.

"Extremely Holy and Abandoned Wisdom told me that you not only cut off a tree demon's claw with your own hands, but also helped You'er saw through the fangs of a corpse evil?" Princess Cheng looked at the child in front of her with a smile.

Teng Yuyi said yes.

"Very good." Princess Cheng patted Teng Yuyi's shoulder with relief. No matter her tone or action, it was full of encouragement. She almost said "I appreciate you very much" to her face. After doing all this, Princess Cheng returned neatly. Next to Daoist Master Qingxuzi.

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi covered their mouths to steal fun, Teng Yuyi glared at them with a smile, and she was embarrassed to pretend to be gentle again, she raised her sword and swept away a lot of small evils in one breath.

Once this wave of monsters was eliminated, the city of Chang'an had a lot of calm on the surface. After that, Azhi often invited Teng Yuyi to play at the Chengwang Mansion, and Teng Yuyi also often asked Azhi to come to Tengfu for dinner.

In his spare time, Teng Yuyi would spend his time making some delicate desserts. In addition to routinely tasting them for his aunt and sister, he also made a few copies for Qingyun Temple and Cheng Wangfu, and then put them in a brocade box and mounted them carefully. Either he asked Azhi to bring it back to the mansion, or he personally sent it to the Chengwang Mansion and Qingyun Temple as a return gift. After several visits, even the Taoist priest Qingxuzi was full of praise for Teng Yuyi's craftsmanship.

On this day, Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan were invited to the Chengwang Mansion to participate in the poetry meeting.

Since the last time the corpse evil broke into the Chengwang Mansion, Princess Azhi's poetry meeting has been suspended. After a few months of rest, Azhi has the idea of ​​​​writing poetry again, catching up with the mother and the second brother are also at home. This poetry meeting Unprecedentedly lively, in addition to the members of the poetry club, all the students of Xiangxiang Academy were also invited, and even several princes of Fanbang from the imperial **** were also invited.

In the middle of the poetry meeting, Gu Xian, the prince of Nanzhao Kingdom, suddenly left the table. The wine cup in Teng Yuyi's hand stopped by his lips, and he winked at Duanfu outside the pavilion. Duanfu understood and left without making a sound. go down.

***

In the middle of the night, in a well-designed mansion.

A lotus root lamp was lit in the corner of the room, and the charming light dimly illuminated the arrangement in the room. The windows were closed, and the golden chi incense burner was fragrant. No one spoke in the room, but the bed made ambiguous and urgent sounds from time to time. After a long time, the screen After the rain, the wind stopped.

After a short silence, a man gasped and said a few words, in exchange for a woman exclaiming in shame.

Someone stumbled out from behind the screen, and it was Gu Xian.

His eyes were scattered, his face seemed a little drunk, his python robe was wide open, and the tunic inside was also half open.

He ran to the table and put on his boots, while thinking about something regretfully. After dressing, he did not leave, but stood beside the table. When he came back to his senses, he went around the screen again, and half-knelt facing the woman on the bed. whispered something.

The bed frame rattled slightly, and the woman turned over lazily.

After a while, the woman opened her mouth intermittently.

"Let's go." The woman's voice was softer than the girl's, and she was still panting when she spoke, "I was very happy that you came to visit me, but if it wasn't for entertaining you, I wouldn't drink more of these glasses, why? I know you - tonight I'll just treat you as a drunken gaffe, and don't come to me again."

At the end, he started sobbing.

Gu Xian seemed a little overwhelmed, he said a few words in a soft voice, and suddenly he heard the maid outside the door timidly say: "His Royal Highness, Achisai is looking for something urgent."

After a silence in the room, Gu Xian said apologetically to the woman on the bed, "Don't be afraid, I have everything. I'll see you tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he walked out from behind the screen, walked to the door, looked back with nostalgia, turned around and left in a hurry.

After Gu Xian left, the woman did not get out of bed immediately, but coquettishly called the maid to deliver water. The maid blushed and brought the washbasin and towel into the house. Let them all retreat.

After the woman picked it up by herself, the models came out from behind the screen. The light was like water, illuminating her lazy figure, but seeing her hair in a messy bun, red eyes and red lips, and a looming white and plump curve on her chest, it was infinitely thought-provoking.

There were tears in the corners of her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were slightly tilted, as if she had completed a dream, and it was like the hunter had finally caught a prey that satisfied her.

After drinking half a cup of tea, the woman bent down to blow out the lotus root lamp on the table. When she was about to go back to bed to rest, the lamp behind her suddenly turned on again.

When the woman suddenly saw the light projected on the curtain, she couldn't help being surprised. When she looked back, she saw a young girl in the room.

The girl sat at the table, looking at her with a smile that was not a smile. The lamp that had been extinguished, I do not know when it came on again.

The woman was about to scream in alarm when a tall black figure bullied her like a ghost, sealing her acupuncture point at once, and then a cold dagger was stuck to her throat.

"Stay safe, Wu Yingying." The girl greeted her kindly.

Wu Yingying stared at the girl in surprise.

The girl kindly reminded her: "Don't shout, if you shout, this dagger will kill you immediately."

Wu Yingying was very sensible, and nodded her head while panting.

Teng Yuyi motioned Duanfu to relieve Wu Yingying of the acupoint.

Wu Yingying panted and said, "Are you—General Teng's daughter?"

Teng Yuyi smiled and said, "I have a good memory. I wanted to come over to visit my old friend, but I didn't expect to encounter such a beautiful scene."

Wu Yingying's face turned red for a while, and while looking inside the house, she said, "No, you must have been hiding in the house a long time ago."

In other words, everything about her and Gu Xian tonight was seen by Lady Teng.

She was annoyed: "What do you want to do?"

Teng Yuyi shrugged: "I'm here to see what this old friend of ours has been up to recently. It's not worth it for me to be watched secretly for almost two months, and as soon as I come here, I see something incredible. If I don't remember Wrong, King Xinchang is Gu Xian's uncle, which means you are Gu Xian's aunt?"

Wu Yingying was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to think, but she smiled again: "What does this have to do with you?"

Teng Yuyi looked at the objects in the house by herself, the cormorant cup, the dancing luan green mirror, the Ruiguang curtain... These are all rare things of great value. No matter how much wealth the King of Xinchang left behind, I am afraid that Wu Yingying would not be able to afford such profligacy.

It is said that the amount of money that Nanzhao gives to the female relatives of the royal family is limited every year. Wu Yingying has no children. Once her husband dies, her treatment in Nanzhao will only get worse.

If Wu Yingying was used to the extravagant life she had before, she would have to plan well for her future.

Teng Yuyi turned her gaze back to Wu Yingying's face, and had to admit that Wu Yingying's appearance was better than that of most women in the world. Perhaps because she had not given birth, her skin was still shattered like a girl, and her figure was more plump and seductive than ordinary women. people.

I remember that time when Wu Yingying was buying spices at the Fendie Building in the West City, Gu Xian made a special trip to pick up Wu Yingying. At that time, she was a little strange. No matter how well-mannered she was, a nephew would rarely be so attentive in front of her aunt.

She should have guessed that Gu Xian loves Wu Yingying.

After all, Wu Yingying was in her twenties, not much older than Gu Xian.

"Gu Xian has come to see you seven times in the past two months. Every time he came alone, he didn't even bring his servants. Tonight, he stayed for more than an hour before leaving." Teng Yuyi smiled, "Before I guessed all of this was your acquiescence. Tonight, I saw with your own eyes that you were half-assisting in front of him. Gu Xian is the only son of the king of Nanzhao, and will inherit his father's throne in the future. For a long time, you have had this relationship with him, and when he becomes a king in the future, he will also take care of you in secret. The glory and wealth you want will always be maintained for you. "

Wu Yingying stared at Teng Yuyi. By now, she had already seen that the other party had come prepared. Blindly denying it would only force the other party to throw out more evidence. You came early tonight. You should have known that Gu Xian was begging me from beginning to end. Men, no matter how old or young, are like this. This world is so unfair to women. Marry again, I'm still so young, why should I live like wood? Men and women love, you love me, even if I don't want to be rich and rich, I also want to have a man who warms the bed for me, and he will bring it to the door by himself. Come on, I didn't take the initiative."

These words made people blush, and Teng Yuyi couldn't help clearing her throat. Although she hated Wu Yingying, what she said was quite reasonable.

Wu Yingying calmly glanced out the window.

"As for me, I'm not at all interested in these things." Teng Yuyi smiled sarcastically, "but I have to remind you that now this house is full of my people, and I told Grandpa about it in a letter before I came here. , if you dare to play tricks, someone will spread your story to Nanzhao tomorrow. It's not only our Teng family who are watching you, but there are as many witnesses as you want. Of course, as long as you cooperate with me obediently, this It's over when it gets to me."

Wu Yingying's complexion was unpredictable, she was obviously weighing the pros and cons, thinking about it, but she was caught by the other party, she glanced at Teng Yuyi, and sighed: "You are so skilled at such a young age, I am afraid of you." Well, what do you want to know?"

Teng Yuyi's face sank: "What did my grandfather come to look for you that day?"

Wu Yingying bit her lips lightly, as if hesitating what to say.

"For the Battle of Nanyang?"

Wu Yingying's face suddenly turned ugly: "Do you know about the Battle of Nanyang?"

Suddenly, her skin became cold, and Wu Yingying realized that there was still a dagger on her neck. As long as she advanced half an inch, the sharp blade would cut her neck.

"Yu'er, speaking of which I am also your elder." Wu Yingying smiled reluctantly, "I have no grievances with you in the past and no enmity in the past, so why should we meet each other in battle? Hurry, hurry up and tell this strong man to take the dagger away."

"What kind of elder are you?" Teng Yuyi sneered, "If we kill you tonight, no one will be able to find us. If you don't want to die, you'd better say it out loud and say, "I am What did the Lord come to ask you for proof?"

Wu Yingying was silent for a long time, and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to talk about it, it's just that this matter is too cruel. You are the descendant of General Teng, so it may not feel good to hear it—"

The dagger approached another point, and Wu Yingying's face turned pale: "I said, I said. Your grandfather asked me if I told you the truth of the Nanyang battle back then."

***

When Teng Yuyi came out of the house, the whole person was in chaos as if he had just climbed up from purgatory.

Wu Yingying's words pierced into her heart word by word.

"Before I got to your house, your aunt was sick for a long time. I heard that she couldn't sleep well at night and always had some terrifying and strange dreams."

"How come there is no idea? General Teng please
