Vol 15 Chapter 716: Blossoming the other side of the old river (1)

After all, in the West Lake in June, the scenery is not the same as the four. The lotus leaves are infinite, and the lotus flowers are different.
Southern Dynasty.
It was an extraordinarily hot summer day, and Jiangnan was nearing the season of picking lotus. In an annoying cicada, Zhou Pei woke up from her sleep, and there were some traces of nightmares in her mind. The conflicts of thousands of people, in the darkness, reached an indescribable anger, breath, from far away. The place is floating.
How long has it passed since that nightmare war?
The Jurchen’s search for the mountains and the sea, the slaughter in the south of the Yangtze River.
She and her father were floating in the sea for half a year, leaving their younger brothers to run for six months in this land of Jiangnan.
Time has passed in memory for a long time. However, if you think about it carefully, it seems to be just the past.
The close-knit niece came in with the iced sour plum soup. She woke up a little and waved her haze in her mind. Soon after, she changed her clothes and walked out of the room. On the corridor, the eaves of the Princess House sprinkled a shade, with walkways, trees, a large lotus pond in front, and ponds. Water waves shine in the sun.
The weather was too hot. The aisles and pavilions on the pond were not seen. Only the guards on duty at the eaves, the sound of the quarrel, came from the next courtyard of the gallery.
Zhou Pei frowned and went over there. The long corridor stretched, and the voice over there became clearer. It was also a clear voice, which made Zhou Pei's mood more and more deposited.
The courtyard where she lives is facing the big pond. The most spacious, more than ten rooms are listed by the water. Facing the waterside or the gardens and pavilions on the water, it is the core of the princess house. Zhou Pei lives here. Everyday dealing with various things is also here. The courtyard next to it was a little smaller. A large banyan tree in the courtyard sprinkled a shade in the sun of the poisonous person. When Zhou Pei passed, he saw two men who seemed to be confrontation--in fact, they were only looking for one-- - 驸马渠 Zonghui is facing Chengzhouhai, and he has said it for a while. Seeing Cheng Zhouhai always ignores it. At this time, he rushed over and pushed him.
"Why, don't you talk to me? Do you think it would be a shame to be a little white face? If you look at your age, you can give her a slap..."
Facing Qu Zonghui, Cheng Zhouhai was only a low-browed eyebrow, and he did not say a word. When the horse rushed over and reached out and pushed his hands, he stepped back two steps, causing Qu Zonghui to push down in the air and rush forward. I almost fell in two steps. This makes Qu Zonghui even more anxious: "You dare to hide..."
"enough!"
Zhou Pei Xing was angry and appeared at the entrance of the hospital. The princess of a palace dress had its own majesty at this time. When it appeared, the courtyard was quiet. She looked at the man in the yard who was nominally her husband, and there was disappointment in her eyes - but this was not the first time. After two strong repressions, she turned her head: "The horse is too rude. Take him down."
Her words were said to the nearby niece of the prostitute, and the palace priests led the ceremony, then whispered to the two guards next to them, and when they approached Qu Zonghui, they also apologized, and the guards walked over. Zong Hui waved his hand against Zhou Peiyang’s head and prevented the guards from approaching.
"I will go!"
When the words were finished, he took another look at the boat and turned to leave the yard.
If you only look at the back of this departure, Qu Zonghui's long body, fluttering, and arrogant, is a man who can make many women's favorite. Over the years, he has indeed relied on this pair of skins to capture many women in Lin'an City. Heart. Every time he left in front of Zhou Pei, he did maintain such a demeanor. Xu hoped that Zhou Pei would see his pride and how much could change his mind.
However, he never knew that the woman in front of her had never had too much embarrassment about this side of the man. Perhaps she had seen too many things too early, or perhaps she was responsible for the past few years. , is a variety of too complicated situation. Every time Qu Zonghui’s efforts to save his feelings often lasted for several days, lasted for half a month, and then he left in an unrequited manner in Zhou Pei’s unresponsiveness, and began to invest in the arms of other women on the grounds of
self-defeating
. .
For Zhou Pei at this time, such efforts are too much like children's games. Qu Zonghui did not understand that his "effort" was too arrogant to ridicule the efforts of the people in this world. Everything in the Princess House is related to the livelihood of hundreds or even thousands of people. If there is room for giving up these two words, then the world is really good.
It used to be difficult for the sea. This year, Zhou Pei was twenty-five years old and had become an adult in a time she had never realized.
"The Hummer is invisible, and Mr. is wronged."
"No matter, he is a horse... It’s also because he loves the princess, he gave birth, and he was not jealous."
"Oh." Zhou Pei nodded and smiled softly. "Mr. come with me."
"Ok."
In the dazzling sound of the sun, the two went to the study room in the courtyard. This is a private routine that has been routinely taken for many days. In the eyes of outsiders, it is inevitable that there are some embarrassment. However, Zhou Pei never argues that the position of Cheng Zhouhai, one of the best in the princess palace, has never been moved.
After inheriting the robes of the Princess of the National Cheng Dynasty, the time of the Southern Dynasties has come down for a few years. Today, the Long Princess House is already a more inflated giant in the land of Jiangnan. After the Jurchen’s search for the mountains and the sea, the Wu Dynasty actually lost the entire Central Plains. The officials facing the chaos were painstakingly trying to clean up the situation. Zhou Pei and others reorganized the power of the Princess House in this chaos, and they began to regain their mentality.
In a few years, relying on the assistance of Cheng Zhouhai and others, Zhou Pei worked hard and cautiously to learn the skills of Ning Yi to develop bamboo records and revitalize various industries. In this bleak time, the Central Plains fell, and a large number of Han people who lost their homes came from the north. The society was chaotic and the people were dying. Many people had no clothes to cover their clothes. In order to solve these problems, the Princess House was in the dark and imperial court. The power of Ming began to develop business workshops in a big way, trying to give these people work. After the initial chaos and embarrassment, when they were awake, everyone suddenly discovered that the financial resources and influence of the Princess House had expanded in all aspects of society. .
The difference between the rich and the poor in the society is increasing. However, the revitalization of business still gives a large number of people the opportunity to survive. After a year or two of chaos, the entire land of the south of the Yangtze River is surprisingly unprecedentedly prosperous - this is The status quo that everyone can't understand - the people in the palace of the princess can only be attributed to all aspects of sincere cooperation and shame, and they are due to their unremitting efforts.
For some insiders, the development of various careers in the Princess House system has even surpassed the bamboo system that could not be mentioned at the time - they finally learned the skills of the rebel in a certain aspect. In my hand, I still have it. After such a huge chaos, they finally saw hope again.
Sure enough, without such a huge disaster, people who survived in a bustling city will not wake up. This is the three times that the Jurchen people have awakened the Wu Dynasty people. As long as this continues, the Wu Dynasty will sooner or later rise.
This is a saying that has gradually become popular in many poetry and literary meetings. On the bright side, the great shame of Jingping Emperor has not gone, but the generous cry for shameful shame is gradually getting up. This may be The society gradually began to symbolize stability in some form. Of course, the whole process may last for a long time, but it can have such achievements, and each participant has more pride in his heart.
The Princess House does not mention these. However, in the exchange of data, there is a place where people can avoid hunger. Zhou Pei or Cheng Zhouhai can feel the stability of one aspect of their hearts.
"... Quanzhou, the eight farms, the land can not be collected, but I have already talked with the outsiders, after the grain collection, the price is not allowed to exceed the average price of the market. He is afraid that we will accept Zhuangzi, we should not dare Playing tricks. Puqing's cotton yarn workshop, this time into the 200 people, it is estimated that it will not be used, some trouble, but the owner told me that he has some new ideas... no matter how to do it, I think people can have a meal first Eat it. On the other side of Yangzhou, the food for disaster relief is not enough. We have some arrangements..."
Bit by bit of the calm tone, as a big butler, Cheng Zhouhai said these things to Zhou Pei, from time to time, Zhou Pei will also open a few words. In this process, Cheng Zhouhai looked at the woman behind the desk, and occasionally had some sighs in her heart. He is a very masculine person -- or not just masculine. -- His utilitarian and pragmatic side makes him unconditionally trusting everyone. In the past, only a few people can win him. Pay.
The woman in front of her is not a stunning generation. She was a little girl who was not sensible when she first met. After Qin went old, Ning Yi rebelled, and the heavens and the earth fell. Following Zhou Pei can only be regarded as a temporary right for Cheng Zhouhai. The more naive she is, the better she will be fooled and manipulated. However, over the years, women’s hard work and warfare But it is in the eyes of Cheng Zhouhai. She spent many nights slumbering and dealing with things everywhere, taking pains to ask and learn; running and locating in the field, facing a large number of victims, she rushed to the front line for treatment and appeasement, facing the local forces. Forced to fight against the palace, she also struggled to learn various means of coping and differentiation. In an extremely difficult environment, she even had a personal hand-to-hand murder, strongly suppressing the contradictions, waiting for the easing, and then rushing to Huairou square.
There are many of these means, and they come from the advice and teaching of Cheng Zhouhai. Nowadays, Cheng Zhouhai may not be a woman who admire her eyes, but more or less, she can treat her as a companion. Therefore, he watched the "long princess" gradually become calm and calm in countless troubles, and also gave her a feeling of pity and sympathy.
For a person, especially as a woman, she is never happy. She has been on her for years. It is the responsibility of the royal family. Under the premise of having an unreasonable father, the responsibility for the world’s people should not be A woman’s responsibility, because if she is a man, she may still be able to reap a sense of satisfaction in her career. However, in front of this child, there is only a deep weight and shackles.
Sometimes Cheng Zhouhai even thinks that if she gives up her seriousness and accepts the Qu Zonghui who is a Hummer, she may still get some happiness. The nature of this Hummer is not necessarily bad. He is only young, proud, and weak. He always comes close to him. After ten days and a half, he is consciously neglected and goes to find other women. In fact, Zhou Peiru gives him some good. Looking at his face, he may not do this kind of thing for a lifetime.
After all, the long princess at this time, as a woman, is also extremely beautiful and temperament. The enormous power and long-term independence also give her a mysterious and unattainable brilliance. After many things, She also has a quiet cultivation and temperament, and there is no such thing as a superficial man like Qu Zonghui, who will be reluctant to run back once again after being mad.
Every time he inadvertently thinks of such a thing, every time, in the depths of the heart, there is a more secret sigh. This sigh doesn't even think about himself - it's impossible to think about it - in some ways, he may know more clearly than anyone else about the deep princess's heart, that is, he didn't mean it many years ago. The secret of darkness between the glimpses. Many years ago in the courtyard of the Liangliang, Zhou Pei’s deep ritual to the man... such a thing is really terrible.
He buried these ideas.
"... In addition, yesterday afternoon, I saw Dexin. He traveled outside in the past two years, quite different..."
After talking about the matter, when talking about gossip, Cheng Zhouhai mentioned the reunion with a friend yesterday. Zhou Pei raised his eyes: "Li Pin Li Dexin? In recent years, I often heard people talk about his talents. He traveled the world and was looking forward to it?"
"Not quite the same, he told me that there is still doubt in his heart." Cheng Zhouhai looked at Zhou Pei, and it was a smile. "I told him about the official affairs, or simply came to the Princess Office to help, he refused. However, he raised some concerns to me yesterday. I think it makes sense. In the past two years, the various shops under our hands have developed very fast, but this is because the northern streamers are constantly going south, and our soldiers will block the water. There may be problems next..."
"Which day is no problem, I am surprised..." Zhou Pei clasped her hands and leaned against her face. She looked at the stack of rice paper documents on the table and sighed.
Cheng Zhouhai smiled. In fact, the things he talked to with Li Fei yesterday were quite deep. Many of them were discussions on the roots of Confucianism and Taoism. Zhou Pei pursued the back of a man in recent years. Be pragmatic. If Cheng Zhouhai wants to completely retell the things they are talking about, Zhou Pei may only feel bored and wasted time. He simply said the status quo of Li Feng as soon as possible. Zhou Pei sighed and ignored it.
At the end of the conversation between the two, when they left, Cheng Zhouhai said: "Listen to people, the Prince will come over today." Zhou Pei nodded: "Well, say afternoon. Mr. want to see him?"
"It’s not true." Cheng Zhouhai shook his head and hesitated. He said, "There is a lot of resistance to the prince’s desire."
"He is so addicted to the matter, and it is not very determined anyway."
Cheng Zhouhai smiled: "The fear is that the Prince is still very determined..."
After this was said, Cheng Zhouhai left and left, Zhou Peiwei smiled and smiled slightly bitter. After she sent the boat to the sea, she went back to continue to handle the official duties. Soon after, the Prince Junwu came over and passed through the Princess House.
Compared with the identity of the prince of Hehe, the twenty-three-year-old Jun Wu seems to have too simple a simple dress, a light blue and plain crown, a submandibular, a sharp but slightly absent-minded - this is because of the mind There are too many things and the reasons for being overly focused on one aspect. After greeting each other, he said: "Qu Zonghui is coming to trouble today."
"You don't have to arrange someone around him." Zhou Pei sighed and shook his head.
"He is making trouble again, I will interrupt his leg sooner or later."
"You used to be friends." Zhou Peiwei smiled and smiled. After a while, "I mean, people should be used in the right place. He is an insignificant person. It is really worthless."
Since Qin Yuyuan died, Ning Yi rebelled, and the roots of the original Right Xiangfu were broken up. Until Kang Wang regained his position after the succession, it was mainly collected under the pair of brothers and sisters Zhou Pei and Jun Wu. Among them, Cheng Zhouhai and Jue Ming monks followed Zhou Pei's handling of business and politics. They were fascinated by people, Yue Fei, Wang Shanyue and others who were sheltered from the Prince of the Kings. The two sides exchanged views from time to time.
However, in terms of temperament, the relatively casual Junwu and the rigorous and rigid sister are quite different. Although the two sides are deeply in love with each other, they often inevitably pick up their bickering and make differences. Mainly because Jun Wu was intoxicated with the character, Zhou Pei dismissed him for not doing business, and Jun Wu believed that his sister became more and more "taking care of the overall situation" and would become like the court officials. Therefore, the meeting between the two sides has gradually declined in the past few years.
Seeing each other at the moment, the two men left the subject of possible quarrels from the beginning, and talked about some family trivialities. After a while, Jun Wu only mentioned the matter about the north: "...for the April event, Wang Zhongqi and Yue Feifei rushed in, I will bear it, and the penalty is. More and more insatiable, what is going on. If it is not I don’t want to run this kind of thing like this. The father is like that... I am really..."
When he talked about this, it was a fire. When the Jurchen was searching for the mountains and the sea, his father Zhou Wei only managed to escape. After the father-son exchange, the army had some respect for his father. However, the emperor was always a little stable. The deputy and the mud, listening to the warmth of everyone's speech, no matter what the matter is looking for the past, the other party shows "you are my son" rather than "you are reasonable", it is really a little resentful.
For his anger, Zhou Pei silent for a moment: "You know what is going on."
"Yeah, everyone knows what is going on... can you show it off!"
"The preparation is not enough. No one wants to recruit the Jurchen again."
"After you don't hit, can you get ready?"
"The meaning of the temple is to be cautious, and slowly..." Zhou Pei said, but also a little light.
Jun Wu will hammer it to the coffee table next to it.
"Of course, since you have come over, they will give in..."
"This world, such a child, after all, still did not save ..." Jun Wu gritted his teeth.
Zhou Pei shook his head and his voice was soft. "After all, there has not been standing. From these days, the appearance of the outside looks prosperous. In fact, the people are constantly moving south. We have not kept the situation. The roots are not stable, not a few generous words can be solved. The adults in the church don’t want to go north, but since the trend is getting better, they can only maintain the situation first..."
"The general trend is... The people from the north want to fight back. The general trend is true. Such a good opportunity, no one wants to catch..."
"The Jurchens will come again, and Jiangnan will all be jealous. Junwu, General Yue, and General Han, can they give confidence to the Jangtang people once? We must at least block it once, how can we block it? Let the father go again. maritime?"
"There is no certain possibility in the world." Jun Wu looked at the sister in front of him, but after a while, he still looked away. He knew that he should not look at his sister. Zhou Pei just stated the reason of others. However, in this, there are more and more complicated, arguable and unspeakable reasons. Both of them are actually well-informed and understand.
In the courtyard of the afternoon, the sun was no longer blazing at noon. The room began to have a cool breeze. The younger brother stood up and began to stand by the window and look at the bright lotus pond outside, knowing that he kept screaming. The two chatted a few words at random, and Jun Wu suddenly said: "... I received news from the Northwest earlier."
"I don't want to hear." Zhou Pei answered the first time.
"It’s too bad." Jun Wu held the window frame and looked out, whispering. After a while, I turned back and said, "I will enter the palace and I may eat in the palace."
Zhou Pei nodded. "There was a feast at Xufu in the evening. Mrs. Xu came and asked again and again. I should have passed the past."
Jun Wu nodded and silenced for a moment: "I am leaving first."
"I see you off."
When my sister sent her brother to the government gate, Zhou Pei said: "If you come over, the father will accept you."
Jun Wu smiled and said: "It’s a pity that he won’t go to the north." There was some irony in the smile. "...he was afraid."
Zhou Pei did not speak. A few years ago, the search for the mountains and the sea, and the Jurchen’s destruction and death were printed in the minds of all people. During this time, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Zhang Wei, Liu Guangshi and other generals trained. On the one hand, the chaotic area to the north of Qinhuai is very close, and I have played several times and recovered several counties and counties. However, when there is a big battle, the main force and power in the court must start to stop. What is the core reason? What...
... he is afraid.
This is... something that cannot be said on the table.
Zhou Wei can be unprincipled and muddy. He can help his son or daughter to reverse the counter on the table. However, at the root of his heart, he is afraid. When the Jurchen went south for the third time, he had twice repaired the book and summed up the golden martial arts. As soon as the speed of the rifle struck Yangzhou, Zhou Wei could not wait until his son arrived, and he finally sailed one step at a time. In the deepest part of the heart, he is not a strong emperor after all, and even his opinion is not much.
After sending away his younger brother, Zhou Pei walked back to the study room. The afternoon wind had begun to become gentle. She sat quietly at the table for a while, extended her hand and opened a drawer at the bottom of the desk. The paper with less information recorded was taken over by her. She turned over. The information was in the middle of the sea and had not been filed. There was an information in the middle. She pulled it out, took a small half, and paused.
That was the news that came back from the northwest not long ago, she has seen it again. Put it here, she is not willing to give it a special classification, at this time, even resisting to look at it again, it is not a strange intelligence, in recent years, similar messages often and often.
She sat there, bowed her head, and closed her eyes to work hard to make all these things ordinary. Soon after, Zhou Pei sorted out the mood and sorted out the information and put them back in the drawer.
However, it is an ordinary intelligence. This is an ordinary day. I didn’t think of anything very special. After such an idea, her attention has been put on the reality, so she greeted the acolyte. After dressing up, I got on the carriage and went out.
The Princess House’s team drove past the original streets of Hangzhou, known as Lin’an, and passed through dense crowds to the right-handed residence of Xu Wei. The wife of Xu Wei’s wife is a great family in the south of the Yangtze River. The land is vast and there are many people in the family. The influence is extremely deep. After having a relationship with the long princess Zhou Pei, I have repeatedly asked Zhou Peicai to agree to participate in the Xufu’s son-in-law. get together.
In the late summer of the six years of Wu Jianyu, the land of the south of the Yangtze River, including Hangzhou City, is showing a prosperous and prosperous life. It is even surprising that the fall of the Central Plains is likely to be a good thing.
Among the Xufu, many bureaucrats and daughter-in-laws welcomed the arrival of the princess. When the sun sets, the banquet begins in the backyard of the Xufu backyard. For Zhou Pei, this is a simple entertainment scene. She is skilled to talk to the surrounding women. The performance is elegant and with a little distance. Occasionally, open up and guide some topics on the banquet. Many women present at the scene looked at the princess of a country of twenty-five years old. They wanted to be close, and they all had the awe of war.
This is not the kind of imperial royal woman. In her hand, she holds half of the royal family. Most of the time, her means is gentle and nominally does not involve any political affairs. In the past two or three years of various famines and chaos, the shooting of the Princess of the Long Princess has also been quite a few examples.
A group of ladies who are accustomed to the intrigue in the backyard of the big door, facing such a woman, have natural weakness and embarrassment. Although there are many people who are secretly arrogant, this long princess is too strong at home, and even forced Hummer to give up and squander in the city of Lin’an. However, when the other party has always ignored this rumor, they are even more interested in Zhou Pei. Added a bit of fear.
A woman who doesn’t even want a family and a reputation is really going to start a fight. Is there anything she can’t do?
Therefore, the abdominal cramps only stop at the abdomen.
The banquets were mixed up, the women talked about poetry and literary talents, talked about the music, and then talked about the Qixi coincidence after the rest of the month, can you please ask the princess to do things together. Zhou Pei was decently involved. During the banquet, a frail official woman also fainted because of heatstroke. Zhou Pei also looked at it in the past, and it was very popular to let the woman take a rest.
When the time came, the day was just dark, the banquet was carried out to the majority, and when the singer in Xufu was performing, Zhou Pei sat there, and she had already begun to go idle, and inadvertently, she remembered the dream at noon. .
How long has it been since the nightmare war? In the summer of Jianye, the Jurchen was crossing the river in Huangtian, and now it is Jianye for six years. Time has passed in memory for a long time. However, I think about it... but it’s only three years.
Three years... She looked at the scene of the song and dance, almost like the feeling of being separated.
A servant came from the outside, and the servant of the Ancestral Hall saw it, walked silently, communicated with the servant, and took things back. Zhou Pei looked in his eyes. On the side, Mrs. Xu accompanied her smile and talked to him. Zhou Pei also smiled and responded. The palace man quietly handed over a piece of paper. Zhou Pei spoke and looked at it.
Her smile faded silently and gradually became expressionless.
It was a hollow that no one could describe, and it appeared on the face of the princess. Everyone was listening to her words—even though there was no nutrition—but the voice stopped. They saw Zhou Pei, who was sitting in the middle of the flower garden at the forefront, slowly stood up. She looked at the note on her left hand without any expression on her face, and the right hand gently pressed it on the table. .
No one dares to speak, and the empty expression may be cold and horrible. The long princess in front of him is commanding someone to kill, even killing someone personally - she has no momentum, but it is cold. All negative feelings such as rejection, incompatibility, etc., or the first time, as if unscrupulously revealed - if the note is some news about Xu, if she suddenly wants to open the knife That may not be surprising.
"Princess..." Gongyi people tried to come and help her, Zhou Pei's left hand, gently waved, she heard her say: "Fake."
Along the side, Mrs. Xu also came over and asked about it. It was Zhou Pei’s fierce and short sentence:
Go away!
This sentence seemed to exhaust all her strength, and Xu’s heart was shocked and her face was white. Stop the pace.
In front of ~EbookFREE.me~ the body shook, she did not feel it, the eyes were wide open, the tears had already poured out, and the face was full, she stepped back, her eyes swept In front, the left hand pinched the note: "Fake..." The voice didn't come out very well, because there was blood flowing out of the mouth, and she fell down on the back seat.
Three years...
Looking through the top of the camphor, in the sky, the night is engulfing the last evening glow, the clouds are orange-gray, drifting slowly. Three years... The black thing has fallen, and the message that she is pressed in the depths of her heart is surging. The swords and swords, the tens of thousands of people, the iron horse glaciers, the raging shouts and the spreading blood, the bones of the city, The sea of ​​fire is full of heaven, and the giant, holding the scorpio's scorpio and mantle with a strong and unyielding attitude... Like a volcanic eruption, the mountains and rivers rushed toward her eyes.
Jiangnan, an ordinary, hot day, Yunxia is long.
Zhou Pei sat in the chair...
The greatest nightmare, coming... (to be continued.)
PS: Looked at it, this chapter is eight thousand words.
