Rebirth Handbook - Chapter 163
After leaving the dynasty, Prime Minister Song Yuan frowned when he saw Pei Shunqing walking out of the hall.
“Self-Qing.” Before Song Yuan could say anything, Ji Gonggong, who was beside the emperor, came over to Pei Shunqing with a smile on his face and said, “Master Pei, the emperor would like to please.”
“My Prime Minister, look at this…?”
Song Yuan took a step back and spread his hands.
Pei Shunqing covered her lips, coughed softly, and bowed to Song Yuan. Father Ji also smiled at Song Yuan, and then led the way, leading Pei Shunqing into Yanqi Hall behind Yuanji Hall.
Yanqi Hall was the place where the emperor usually took care of official business rests. Non-confidential officials were not allowed to enter. Pei Shunqing was a frequent visitor here. After entering, he saw the emperor who was making memorials on the case. He bowed and saluted, before he was bent down. Helped up.
The emperor put down the pen and walked out from the book case, waved away the people who were waiting in the hall, and then frowned and looked at his friend.
“Shunqing, look at yourself like this, but in just half a month, you are so thin and so thin, do you still want your body? Is it possible that Ying Xian is going, and you are going with her? I know Pei Shunqing is not such a lover of children.”
Speaking solemnly, the emperor let him sit aside and pointed to a cup of ginseng tea on the table next to him.
After Pei Shunqing sat down, he coughed slightly again, “The minister just caught the wind and cold because of the alternation of the autumn and winter seasons. Just two days of recuperation.”
The emperor sat beside him, a bit hated that iron cannot become steel, and said angrily: “You don’t know if I do? Then the doctor Li told me when he came back, sad and hurt the internal organs, you are heart disease!” He was silent for a moment. Suddenly said: “If I hadn’t let you go to Yingfu back then, it would be fine.”
“What is the emperor? The situation was critical at the time. If we could not get the help of Sheng Yonghou, we would only end up with the fate of the king of Han. What’s more, I also have selfish intentions. I have been longing for her for a long time, how could I be willing to watch her marry someone else? Woman, since they are all going to marry, even if I know that she won’t like me, I don’t want to let it go. No matter what, I have to try.” Pei Shunqing’s eyes are calm, as if the sad and haggard man in the emperor’s mouth is not him.
Only for a moment, he seemed to think of something, and there was a deep dull pain in his eyes. “When I first met Ying Xian, I was rescued by her, but I kept this in my heart, and even fell deeply into it. She probably has forgotten that experience. After all, I described it as embarrassed. She probably didn’t recognize it. Get out of me.”
“Since I married her, in the past three years, although I have suffered unbearably, I am indeed happy in my heart, and this is enough. Time is also fate, I have known this day, knowing that I can’t keep her, and I will go early. I made preparations, but now I can hold on. My own body knows it by myself, so I don’t have to bother with it.”
Pei Shunqing, who was too calm, made the emperor not know how to comfort him. He felt that this friend did not need to be comforted. All he needed was time, time for the pain to heal slowly. But after all, he is a friend of life and death, and a military adviser that he has always relied on. Even the King Mu and the emperor did not have such deep feelings for his mother.
Now seeing Pei Shunqing’s haggard and sad look, the emperor’s heart rose with anger, and he slapped the coffee table and cursed: “It’s all the unreasonable old man Ying. When you married Ying Xian, you shouldn’t agree to the old man’s request. Whoever comes back with a wife who can only show it and can’t touch it, that old man Ying, only his own daughter, Jingui, can go wrong with others!”
“This is also my choice. I can’t blame others. Sheng Yonghou’s daughter is eager, and her heart is the same as mine.” After Pei Shunqing finished speaking, seemingly not wanting to be entangled in this matter, he said: “The emperor, now The frontier war is stalemate, the food and grass have been deployed, but the garrison in Beining has not moved…”
Speaking of this, the emperor’s heart became even more irritable, and his eyes were gloomy, “My good brother is guarding the Beining area, and he wants to add a block to me, and the messenger sent back sends the news. He is afraid of death, afraid of After the garrison was transferred away, Lang Rong turned his head to beat him. He was really timid like a mouse and extremely absurd. When is this, his temper will kill him sooner or later!”
Pei Shunqing stood up and bowed to salute: “The emperor, minister Pei Shunqing invites himself to send troops to Beining.”
“Absurd!” The emperor said angrily: “You don’t look at your body, you travel all the way to Beining, you really don’t want to survive!”
Pei Shunqing calmly replied: “The emperor should also know that now only I will be able to persuade King Mu as soon as possible. If it takes a day, the border situation will be in danger for a day, and it needs to be resolved as soon as possible.”
“I don’t believe it. There is no messenger that can scare my stupid brother from the Manchu civil and military!” After saying this, the emperor suddenly stiffened for a moment, and then sat on the stool and touched his nose. After going through those people, I really couldn’t find anyone more suitable than Pei Shunqing.
Pei Shunqing knew very well about his best friends, and didn’t say anything else when he saw it. He just stepped forward again and asked for orders: “Subject Pei Shunqing invites himself to send troops to Beining, and asks the emperor to complete it.” He paused and said, “There is also the death of his beloved wife. , I need to personally inform Yue Zhang.”
The emperor looked at him helplessly and miserably, and finally waved his hand: “Finally, go and go, but take care of your body. I am still waiting for you to live a hundred years, to be my prime minister, to assist me, and to assist me again. Where is my child.”
“The minister will live up to the emperor’s grace.” After Pei Shunqing finished speaking, he began to cough softly again.
The emperor shook his head and sighed, “Come and sit down first, drink some ginseng tea, and later let Ji Gong open the warehouse to get you some more good ginseng medicinal materials. If you want to go to places like Beining, you have to raise it. “
Pei Shunqing didn’t argue with him, and sat down to drink tea. After a while, the emperor who had finished his business said mysteriously: “Shun Qing, I have some worries in my heart recently.”
“Oh?” Hearing the familiar tone of the emperor, Pei Shunqing’s face remained calm, and she wanted to leave.
The emperor touched his unearthed mustache, frowning as if unable to speak, and then said for a long time: “I doubt that the queen and the imperial concubine seem to be good.” (Note: Grinding mirror refers to lesbians. .)
Pei Shunqing almost spit out the ginseng tea in one sip, but fortunately he had experienced too many major events, so he immediately suppressed it and swallowed the ginseng tea calmly. He put down the ginseng tea, stopped moving, and asked, “The emperor, why are you so suspicious?”
As a courtier, after solving the emperor’s affairs in the imperial court, as a friend, he had to solve problems for his friends.
The emperor patted his thigh, looked around, and hooked his fingers like a thief, “Come on, let me tell you, before, they both quarreled constantly, from the mansion to the palace, I see Although it is annoying, but sometimes it is quite enjoyable, man~ Two women are jealous for him, there must be so little pride in their hearts. But, I don’t know what happened recently, the two of them didn’t quarrel, you blame it. No wonder, it’s just the two of them, alas, not only are they not quarreling, they are quite close. I once secretly saw their two heads talking together, so intimate.”
When the emperor said this, his expression was a bit distorted. He covered half of his face as if his toothache was like a toothache, “The last night, guess what? I went to rest at the concubine’s place, and saw a bellyband with her, ten days ago , I also saw the empress embroidering the bellyband! How did the empress embroider the bellyband on the noble concubine?”
Pei Shunqing was speechless for a moment, and didn’t know what expression to make. Whether as a courtier or a friend, he couldn’t give a good solution to this kind of thing, which was beyond the scope of his knowledge.
“Shunqing, what do you think I should do now? Are you saying that the two of them have been in love for a long time, really, really got together? This is too much to put me in the eyes at all! “
Pei Shunqing didn’t want to talk. He coughed again, coughing again and again, this time not the strong and soft cough before, but a deliberate cough. Although he doesn’t want to cough, but at this time, there seems to be no other way besides coughing. It’s not that he is not righteous, but he really doesn’t know what to do.
Master Pei’s acting skills were amazing, coughing as if he was about to die in the next moment. The emperor was startled and didn’t force him to come up with a solution. He was so angry that he should go back and rest first.
After leaving the Yanqi Hall, Master Pei, who had a terrifying cough, put down his hands and hid them in his sleeves. Generally, people who were okay looked at a corner of the palace not far away, and walked forward calmly.
Grandpa Ji, who sent him with the best old escort, said: “…” In the palace, there are certain things that I have to learn to be unseen.
“Master Pei, the minion will not be given away. You walk slowly, but take care of yourself.”
“Thank you, Father Ji.”
Within two days, the emperor sent Pei Shunqing as an envoy to Beining to transfer troops to support Sheng Yonghou’s will, and it spread throughout the government and the public. On the same day, the ladies in the inner house of the Du Mansion began to sigh again, lamenting that Master Pei was kind and righteous, and went to help the father-in-law. By the way, he worried about Master Pei’s physical condition.
The influence of the first beautiful man in the back house cannot be underestimated.
Biting horseshoe cake, a ten-year-old girl with a fat cheek like a steamed bun, her round eyes blinked, her heart said, her ex-husband is still good, although she looks a bit deserted, she knows to help. Own father. A few days ago, she heard that the war in the border area was unfavorable, and she was worried. When she heard about it today, she immediately felt relieved and could eat two more bowls at noon.
Pei Shunqing is a very powerful man. With him on the go, Dad will definitely be able to return in victory soon. Ying Xian clapped her hands, took a small handkerchief and carefully wiped off the remaining cake slag, followed the others from his wife, and went back to her small yard.
Little girl Du Lizhu is ten years old, but no one in the family cares about her, so she doesn’t need to follow her sisters to literate, nor does she need to follow a few sisters to be the steward of the female red school, she just needs to eat and sleep well. Even the two wives who take care of her don’t care much about her, so Ying Xian only needs to stay in the house, no one knows what she does.
Ying Xian’s biggest hobby is painting except for seeing beauties. These days are so boring, she just dips in water and paints on the table. Firstly, there is no pen and ink here, and the two wives refused to give it to her. Secondly, she didn’t want to leave her paintings here. If someone found out, how could she explain why she could paint so well?
In fact, Ying Xian is very talented in calligraphy, calligraphy and chess, and she likes it. After studying with her husband for a period of time, he asked him to call for the talents that can be made and teach her what he has learned all his life. But Ying Xian’s body is not enough to support her to study those hobbies. All the things that consume her mind will be life-saving when she does it. So her father Sheng Yonghou always sees her writing a pen or playing chess. tension.
Sheng Yonghou gets nervous and suffers a headache. Ying Xian sees that her father is nervous and worried like that. There is no way to let go of his troublesome hobbies, cultivate his body every day, and only use a pen to draw flowers and plants when he is in good health. .
Anyway, a genius is a genius. She has been fishing for three days and two days on the net, and occasionally draws fame when she draws a picture. Of course, it is not the fame of Yingxian, but the fame of Lay Songhe. The name Songhe Jushi was given by her father, and the painting was also given to show off by her father. She did not expect to become a master in the calligraphy and painting circle, but no one knew Jushi Songhe was her.
I heard that now she can sell a painting for 800 taels of silver, which is valuable. A picture, she can buy a house today by eating that horseshoe cake.
