Chapter 84

During the Lantern Festival, the streets are full of lively scenes, especially when night falls, the streets are filled with red lanterns, and the entire imperial city is shrouded in red festiveness.

Wen Liang was holding a bunch of food and playthings in his arms, with a ghost mask hanging on his head, and went to the house with his wife, who was also holding a peacock-shaped lantern in her hand. When he saw their outfits, he knew they were It must be returning from the lively Lantern Festival.

"Master Wen, this lantern really looks like you, I will hang it under the eaves in front of our house to pay respects every day~~" Rucui shook the chubby peacock lantern in front of her husband, smiling say.

Wen Liang glanced at the fat lantern that was obviously in the shape of a peacock, but insisted on making it the size of a fat hen. Tucao, he is this fat hen-like peacock, right?Oh, it seems that the girl said a few days ago that he has gained weight for a year, and he has grown some fat around his waist, which made her feel more comfortable holding him to sleep at night than before...

This is an absolute disgrace to men!It is also a shame to be a beautiful man with an enduring reputation.

Wen Liang threw all the things in his arms to his servant, grabbed the girl and flicked her forehead, and asked: "How does this fat hen look like me? My lord is more beautiful than it is." Already!"

Ru Cui glanced at him, and suddenly said seriously: "Master Wen, aren't you taking yourself too seriously? Is it really okay to compare yourself with a lantern made like a fat hen?"

"..."

Wen Liang's hands were itchy and suddenly he wanted to "domestic violence" against his wife. After the "domestic violence", this girl would go to sue the prince and concubine...

The servant girl at the back saw the interaction between the two, and quickly lowered her head to hold back the hilarious laughter.Anyway, they are already used to it. Madam's lack of thoughtfulness will always inadvertently make a very well-mannered gentleman into aphasia, but sometimes she herself does not have this self-awareness, and people can only hold back their own sulking. I almost suffocated myself to death.

"Master Wen, why are you angry?" Ru Cui asked a little puzzled.

What can Wen Liang say?If he picks her up again, he will be second-guessed.

"Go home."

With a flick of his sleeves, he took his own girl who committed the second crime and walked towards the door of the house.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, the housekeeper of Wen's mansion came to report: "My lord, the people from the general's mansion are here to ask you to come over."

Wen Liang took the tea from the maid, and said curiously: "This is a great Lantern Festival, General Jingyuan won't accompany his wife to celebrate the festival, what should I ask my lord to do?"

The housekeeper smiled and said: "Your Excellency and Madam are not here today, so naturally I don't know that the General's Madam has given birth to a young master at Xushi today. However, I heard that the General's Madam's due date should be at the end of the month, which is considered premature. Fortunately, the General's Madam Ji Human beings have heaven, and both mother and child are safe."

Wen Liang is a smart person, he immediately knew that the people in the general's mansion invited him to the mansion, and the reason why the general's wife gave birth prematurely, it seems that only he knew the reason when he went there.

After thinking about it, Wen Liang didn't hesitate, so he got up to change clothes, intending to visit the general's mansion.

"Master Wen, I'm also going to see the young master of the general's house~~" Ru Cui said with a smile on her face.

Wen Liang glanced at her, thought for a while and agreed.

So the couple went back to their room, changed into more formal clothes, and took gifts to the General's Mansion next door to visit the General's newborn.

The Lantern Festival, which was supposed to be a lively family reunion, passed away because of the sudden birth of Xiao Baozi.

Although this day was a bit chaotic, the overall ending was good.

Yu Yuezhuo sat in the room to accompany Ah Meng for a while, although he was reluctant to leave now, but he still had things to deal with, so he took out the hand that was holding Ah Meng's hand under the quilt, and the cold air suddenly hit, as if His heart was also infected with that coldness, and he couldn't help wrapping his other hand around the hand that was warmed by the quilt.

Yu Yuezhuo looked deeply at the sleeping face of the person on the bed, and suddenly showed a helpless smile.

It was unexpected that a woman could make him so anxious and restless.Whenever he thought that his feelings for her were already like this, something would happen to let him know that his feelings were not over yet, and they would become stronger and deeper.And he also knew that this person had unknowingly become his weakness, something he had never thought about.

So what should he do?

Knowing that it is a weakness, but still enjoying it!Perhaps when he first met her as a child, she sat there without crying, letting him push her down from the railing to the ground without making a sound, and she had taught him to keep this person in his heart.At that time, he was very bad——no, or he was such a person, his personality was definitely not good, let alone a good person, he never knew what the virtue of a gentleman was, and he only liked to deceive the eyes of the world with disguises, so that All people think that he is actually a very educated and modest gentleman.And he never felt that there was anything wrong with being so bullying. Every time he saw her, he was obviously angry, but he held back his anger, and it got worse, until she finally couldn't bear to curse, or showed her claws to fight back...

Those years of innocence are the most precious memories in his life, and also the only unforgettable years in his obscure and sad childhood.And her existence became his only obsession in all the days that followed. No matter how difficult the time was, no matter how desperate the situation was, he would always think that he must come back alive to see her, and go back alive to monopolize her.This has become his inner demon, eroding his heart little by little, until the whole heart has been eroded, and he is no longer able to expel the inner demon.

Yu Yuezhuo bent down and rubbed her lips, her heart was filled with an indescribable happiness.

He remembered how his father had sighed to him when he was alive. His father thought that he would be hurt if he was extremely intelligent, but he was stubborn by nature. If no one could restrain him, he didn't know what extreme things he would do when he was full of wings.And the thing that my father cares most about is the Yu family. My father knew that his death would make him angry with the Yu family, so before he died, he made him make an oath that he could leave the Yu family, but not destroy the Yu family.

But after letting the Yu family go, it seems that he has nothing else to do?This loss is unacceptable.Presumably, his father understood his character, so he told him that he might not care about anything in his life, family, career, fame, status... But maybe he will meet another person who makes him take it so seriously. A person who is crazy about it, at that time, the existence of that person will make him understand that there are actually many things that bind him in this world, and there are rules that he cannot destroy at will.

He is really not a good person, not even a hero of Great Chu at all. He only agreed to become this great general in order to repay the kindness of King Su for helping him at the beginning. He is the enemy of Da Chu for hundreds of years. worry about the country and the people.Su Wang, who is rigorous and serious by nature and looks difficult to get along with, is a real man for the country and the people. He can devote himself to the whole of Chu without frowning.But he is not, he is just a bastard with no moral values, with a bad nature and stubbornness, but all the negative aura of his cleverness is hidden in the beautiful appearance that he deliberately created, which made him win such a prize. Much praise.

There are many people in this world who can see his true nature, but perhaps only Ah Meng is the one who truly accepts it completely and will stay with him even though he is terribly afraid.

"A Meng..."

He sighed softly, his eyes locked on the exposed face of the person on the bed, the black hair scattered on the bed made her pale face even more small and delicate, he could crush this face with a single slap .

Such a fragile face really made him want to destroy it.

But he couldn't bear it, he would feel distressed and sad.

Therefore, he can only take her under his wings and protect her according to his heart, and he can also bully her as he wants. The expression of fear made him feel that this world is really wonderful.

This is his thing, his person.

Time passed slowly, until there was a knock on the door, and when Fu Jiu came to report that Wen Liang and his wife had arrived at the mansion, Yu Yue Zhuofang looked away.

"Invite them to drink tea in the hall, I will be there in a moment."

Fu Jiu responded and withdrew.

Yu Yuezhuo glanced at the sleeping person on the bed again, and Fang left the bedroom softly.

When going to the hall, Yu Yuezhuo summoned the captain of the guards in the mansion to understand what happened today, his eyes were unfathomable, and when he heard the captain of the guards say that Yan Lichen said that those assassins were from the Uma clan of North Vietnam, his heart moved, and finally When he connected the things he had missed one by one, and understood the conspiracy, he couldn't help being furious.

The Uma clan did indeed have a conspiracy. They came for him, the enemy who led the Great Chu cavalry to conquer North Vietnam.The people of the Umma knew that there was nothing they could do to him, so their goal was to make him suffer, to hurt his wife and children so as to hurt him.Therefore, the people of the Wuma clan first arranged to transfer him away from his wife and children who were about to give birth, and then sent someone to assassinate the potbellied Ah Meng. If the assassination was successful, it would be enough to make him hurt him.

Of course, these are his guesses now, and there should be other unidentified conspiracies.But even such a guess is enough to make him furious.

Ah Meng is his weakness, and it is also his bottom line. The only thing is that he does not allow anyone to touch it, and he will die if he touches it.

The captain of the guard who reported on the side was secretly shocked. The general's aura at this time was horrifying, and he was already three steps away. It was still unbearable as if he was being choked by someone. His cultivation base has been cultivated to the extreme, and even a slight breath is enough to shake the inner organs of ordinary people.

Fortunately, Yu Yuezhuo quickly held back his breath, waved the captain of the guard back, and then went to the hall to receive the guests.

When they came to the hall, Wen Liang and his wife expressed their congratulations to Yu Yuezhuo at the same time, and Yu Yuezhuo responded politely with a smile.

When the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Yu Yuezhuo signaled Wen Liang to go to the study for a while.Because Ah Meng was still resting just after giving birth, she couldn't come out to entertain guests, so Yu Yuezhuo had no choice but to call her sister to entertain Mrs. Wen, and then took Wen Liang to the study.

When he arrived at the study, Yu Yuezhuo gave Wen Liang a booklet for him to have a look at.

Wen Liang looked at ten lines at a glance, and quickly finished browsing the booklet, frowning slightly.

"Zixiu, what do you think about this matter?"

Wen Liang put down the booklet, pondered for a moment before expressing his guess, "General, I suspect that North Vietnam has changed."

Yu Yuezhuo's eyes moved, motioning for him to continue.

"Although the royal court of Beiyue bowed its head and professed its vassal, it was only the royal court and was not enough to represent the entire grassland of Beiyue. I believe you, General, know that Beiyue is composed of dozens of tribes of different sizes. The role of a leader, due to the local climate and terrain and historical reasons, the power of the royal court is not absolute. Some ancient and mysterious tribes in North Vietnam obey the rule of the North Vietnamese royal court on the surface, but they are not really willing. It seems that there are many conflicts in the grasslands of Beiyue. Although we have dealt a blow to Beiyue, Beiyue is not really disabled. And, I believe that there are still many people who do not accept the rule of the royal court on the grassland, and the destruction of the royal court this time is not considered a bad thing in terms of the northern prairie."

After listening, Yu Yuezhuo just raised his eyebrows, his expression indifferent.

Seeing his expression, Wen Liang sighed in his heart. He knew that this general did not fight the enemy bravely to protect Da Chu as outsiders knew. It was just that at the right time and at the right place, he turned out to be Only after he was born, he became the hero of Da Chu.Fortunately, this general still has concerns in his heart, and he is a man of affection, so that the emperor and King Su can rest assured of him, and let him be the great hero that the people of Chu want.

"As for the people from the Uma tribe appearing in the capital this time, it seems that they came prepared. I don't know if they were used as guns or because they were witches. But it is also certain that there must be many of them. People blamed you for the destruction of the North Vietnamese royal court, so they wanted to attack the general's wife to retaliate against you."

Yu Yuezhuo lowered her eyelids, the smile on the corner of her lips was still as elegant as the moon, and she looked like a handsome young man in the spring of March.But from Wen Liang's point of view, he felt that the general was blackened, and his heart couldn't help but tremble a little.

"However, we have to wait for the news from our spies in North Vietnam to come back to further confirm these." Wen Liang said quickly.

Yu Yuezhuo nodded, "I'll finish writing the scriptures tonight, and tomorrow I'll go to the palace to have an interview with the saint and tell the emperor about it."

The two discussed for a while, and then Yu Yuezhuo remembered the totem of the Uma tribe, so she asked Wen Liang about the Uma tribe on the North Vietnam grassland.Wen Liang has dealt with Beiyue for more than ten years, and he knows the area of ​​Beiyue quite well, and he can easily hear about the Uma tribe in Beiyue.

"I have studied the Uma tribe before." Wen Liang pondered for a moment, and said what he knew with some hesitation, "I have studied the writing of the Uma tribe. Although the writing is very rough, it is the only one in North Vietnam. One of the tribes with their own characters. According to the book, the totem of the Uma tribe is a kind of animal called yangbi. It is said to be a very ferocious animal with the ability to prophesy and curse. It is said that anyone who is cursed by yangbi No one is spared. The Uma tribe has no patriarch, only the great witch, who is the representative of the gods of the Uma tribe in the world. And the great witch inherited the ability to curse from the gods they worshiped, and has the supreme status in the tribe. "

Hearing this, Yu Yuezhuo was a little interested, "The ability to curse? But really?"

Wen Liang was a little puzzled, why did this general's eyes shine?Shouldn't ordinary people be afraid of being cursed when they hear such things?And looking at the situation, the people of the Uma tribe seem to hate this general who leads troops to trample on the grassland. What if their big witch casts a curse?
"It should be true. I heard that someone went to the Uma tribe as a guest but offended their gods, so he was cursed by the great witch. After that person left the Uma tribe, he died inexplicably. What's more mysterious is that that person was In his prime of life, the cause of his death could not even be detected by a doctor."

Yu Yuezhuo rubbed her chin, but she didn't take it seriously, because he had a Crow's Mouth that was absolutely efficacious at home, and any bad things she had cursed would come true.

Well, in comparison, his Ah Meng is still cute.

By the time they finished talking, it was past Haishi.

Miss Rucui, the grand teacher's wife, was also led by Yu Yuejuan, the general's younger sister, to look at the little bun who was still sleeping. She seemed to be in a good mood.

Compared to Mrs. Wen, who is in a good mood, Yu Yuejuan forced a smile on her face. I believe that no girl would be in a good mood when facing the wife of the person she had a crush on, especially this rival in love is a second-time girl. Talking to her is really difficult. It's so frustrating.

Seeing them approaching, Yu Yuejuan breathed a sigh of relief, she could finally send the two rivals away without looking sad.

"General, Miss Yu, I'm sorry to bother you today, Zixiu is leaving." Wen Liangchao and the two cupped their hands.

Yu Yuezhuo also returned the gift, and personally sent the two of them out.
