The Wind in Langya List is in Changlin Chapter 3
The Wind in Langya List is in Changlin Chapter 3
Ganzhou is an important border town, and almost half of the city is military. However, due to its large scale, there are also a large number of civilians who have settled here. There are shops selling daily items, teahouses and restaurants for entertainment and other facilities that are common in other ordinary cities.
There is a small courtyard on the south side of the government office, which was originally a tea house. Because the courtyard is small and there is no hall, the private room is only enough for two or three people to sit, and it does not serve the large bowls of tea soup that the northerners often drink. . After Xiao Pingzhang was in charge of Ganzhou Camp, he passed by unintentionally once. After a brief look, he liked it very much. Seeing that the boss couldn’t keep up, he bought it for daily rest and private hospitality.
Xiao Tingsheng had been busy for several days due to post-war military affairs and the injury of his eldest son, so he managed to find a slightly more leisurely afternoon and invited his old friend Li Qian to come to this teahouse’s private room to reminisce.
“Since Brother Li left the army, you and I have rarely had the chance to meet each other. When was the last time we met? Seven years ago?”
Li Qianzhi smiled, “Yes, it was the year when the eldest son got married, and I came here. I gave you a gift.”
The iron kettle on the stove was boiling with a sharp whistle, Xiao Tingsheng picked up the kettle to wash the tea, and sighed: “Once people get old, they always want to talk about the past. The three of us… Yuan, I, the third brother Lin Shen, we all went through adversity together, were rescued from Yeyouting by my husband, studied art together, joined the army together… But in the end, I am the only one left…”
Qizhu was in her body, Military affairs are heavy and busy, and the past will fade away after all. If it weren’t for the injury of the eldest son’s chest and arrow that was almost the same as the injury of the third brother when he was killed in battle, these old sorrows would not be recalled from the deep-sleeping memory.
“The third brother never remembers his real surname, and we always call him Xiao Shen’er… When he was eighteen, he wanted to join the military, so he chose Lin’s surname and changed his name to Lin Shen.” Xiao Tingsheng took a deep breath, feeling a little sad. “Actually, with his temperament, he is more suitable for ordinary ordinary life. The reason why he followed us in battle is because he wants his brothers to be together…”
Chang Linjun, who came out of King Jing’s hidden residence in his early years, was here. Among the three young players, Lin Shen has no dazzling talent, and has always been the most inconspicuous and easily overlooked one. His greatest strength lies only in his sincerity and loyalty, and he has almost no reservations about the master, his brothers, his wife and children, whoever he feels should be paid. Until the last time he was seriously injured, he didn’t think about himself much, and all he muttered was the little daughter who was born less than three months ago.
Years later, when the name of the deceased was mentioned again, Xiao Tingsheng’s chest felt a little colicky, and he seemed to feel the smoothness and warmth of the blood gushing out between his fingers.
When he took out the long-lived silver lock made for the second son who was just born, and asked the third brother if he would like to marry the two children, the relief in those gray-white eyes was still as clear as yesterday.
Before dying, Lin Shen thought that the young girl was cared for her whole life, and it wasn’t that difficult.
But what about the result? For more than 20 years, the Changlin Palace has been unable to find the widow of an old friend, and the little girl who should have been taken care of by him.
What he can finally do is to let Ping Jing keep the old covenant and wait until now, but unfortunately he may not be able to wait forever.
“Mrs. Lin Shen walked away quietly with the child by herself, not the responsibility of the prince.” Li Qianzhi knew the situation at the time and couldn’t help but persuade, “Besides, I saw the second son on his body, and he was still carrying the marriage contract between the two families. It shows that you are sincere and have nothing to criticize.”
Xiao Tingsheng closed his eyes heavily and sighed: “Ping Jing is the son of Changlin, and he was destined to go to the battlefield. Back then, the three younger siblings could not accept the loss of their husband. Pain, I don’t want this marriage contract, and I don’t want my daughter to marry Jiangmen again. I understand this feeling. But she left without saying goodbye with the child, leaving Changlin Mansion not even having a chance to take care of their mother and daughter, and I am really ashamed. It is difficult to have a day of peace in my heart for the care of my third brother on his deathbed.”
Facing the old king’s sullen eyes, Li Qianzhi lowered his head with some guilt, took a sip of tea, and concealed the guilt in his eyes.
As a doctor, he always believes in putting the patient first. Mrs. Lin Shen’s pain and fear at that time were beyond the controllable range of her reason. She did not accept her husband’s departure or her daughter’s arranged future. Any words related to the frontier of the battlefield would make her almost crazy. outbreak. The heart disease is difficult to cure. The only thing Li Qianzhi can do is to follow her will and place her in a place where she can calm down, not to disturb anyone including the Changlin Palace, and only hope that with the passage of time , the wound in her heart can heal a little.
However, it took more than ten years to wait until she was dying, and the heartbroken widow could not forget her husband’s grief and worry about her daughter.
Li Qianzhi didn’t feel that he had done anything wrong, but he kept it secretly in his heart for many years, and seeing Xiao Tingsheng blame himself like this, he still felt a little guilty, so he tried to think of something to comfort him, “The prince sent so many back then. People went to find them. If their mother and daughter were really homeless, how could they not be found? Since there is no trace, I think someone took in and resettled them, so they will not suffer.”
Xiao Tingsheng stared at the teacup for a while, sighed, “I hope As Brother Li said.”
Li Qianzhi had the girl’s life in his heart, and took the opportunity to ask, “Although the lord has the heart to keep the promise, your majesty will not want the second son to wait like this forever?”
“Your majesty promised to let Ping Jing waits another year, and if there is no further news, he will personally intervene in arranging the child’s marriage. To tell you the truth, His Majesty loves Ping Jing too much, I can’t compete with him on this matter. ”
Then what if Ping Jing finds that child again after marrying another?”
“The marriage has no part in it, the love is still there, and the Changlin Palace will do its best to take care of it.” Xiao Tingsheng thought he was just chatting, and waved his hand, “First Let’s not talk about that anymore. I invited Brother Li to come here today, and besides reminiscing about the past, I also want to discuss something else.”
Li Qianzhi understood and asked, “Is the prince referring to the sinking of the ship in the Datong Mansion?”
Xiao Tingsheng nodded solemnly, “I only heard two days ago that on the night of the accident, in addition to the three official supply ships, a small civilian passenger ship was unfortunately also rammed and sunk. All the people who died on the ship were all of you. The doctor of Fufengtang?”
“Yes. I have a lot of semicolons in Fufengtang. The Datongfu family has a good reputation in the neighboring three states. According to the letter I received, they sailed overnight at that time because of I’m going to go out to see a doctor. I didn’t expect that disaster would come from heaven, and I actually encountered such a thing…”
Xiao Tingsheng held back the anger in his chest, his eyes were slightly cold, “I don’t know how many times I have experienced victory and defeat in the past few years in the army, but the most terrifying and intolerable thing is always the dark arrow behind.”
Since he said so , it is obvious that it has been determined that the sinking of the Datong Mansion is no accident. Li Qianzhi lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, raised his hands and clasped his fists in a salute, and said solemnly: “No matter how the lord plans to deal with this matter, I, Fufengtang, are willing to do my best.”
Regarding the sinking of the Datong Mansion’s military assets, it is not an accident. Of course, Xiao Tingsheng was not alone. When the old man invited his old friends to sit down in the teahouse to talk about the past, Xiao Pingjing was also lying on his brother’s bed, and whispered the news to him.
“I read the memorial that my father sent to Beijing. In addition to the battle in the north, I also raised doubts about the sinking of the Datong Mansion, and asked His Majesty to send a special envoy to investigate.”
Xiao Pingzhang’s traumatic high fever ended last night, and he was still a little embarrassed. , leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes and replied, “Oh, it turns out that the father and the king have made arrangements, so I can rest assured.”
Xiao Pingjing’s eyes suddenly widened, his face full of surprise, “No, tell the capital. Even if there is an arrangement, do you take it seriously, eldest brother?”
“Otherwise, what do you want to do?”
“This kind of thing, everyone knows that the official will definitely investigate. But the emperor’s envoy to Beijing, although the momentum is overwhelming, He is full of majesty, but after all, people who are not familiar with life may not be able to find out the truth in the end.” Xiao Pingjing grabbed his chin and said while thinking, “We can’t all rely on the capital.”
Xiao Pingzhang finally turned his head and glanced. He glanced, “What can you think of, can’t your father think of it? No matter what your majesty arranges in the capital, I will send another person to investigate by myself in the north.”
“The key is who should be sent!” Xiao Pingjing managed to bring the words to this point, and hurriedly took over, “This unannounced visit is all about the word ‘dark’. You don’t need to say it, brother, there is an injury on your body, It’s too eye-
catching , and it’s definitely not going to work. Although the father and the king’s men are like clouds, they can fight alone and adapt to changes. Who can compare to me?” But in the end he shook his head, “You have always been unstable, and your father will not allow it.”
“My father does not listen to you!” Xiao Pingjing leaned against the couch, pulling his brother’s arm and begging, “You Just let me go. Although I’m not as stable as my eldest brother, I have been on the battlefield and walked through the rivers and lakes. No matter what the dark side of Datong Mansion is, I will definitely tear it apart!
” Zhan frowned and took a breath, so scared that Xiao Pingjing quickly let go of his hand, helped him to rest on the pillow and didn’t dare to say more, and slumped down on the edge of the couch.
“You have been very smart since you were a child, and you have also learned some skills that are difficult for ordinary people in Langya Pavilion. I naturally know that you are the most suitable.” Xiao Pingzhang cooled his younger brother for a while, then reached out and rubbed the top of his head, and said with a smile, “However, if you want Father Wang to approve, you must first agree to two conditions.”
Xiao Pingjing sat up abruptly, nodding quickly, “Brother, just tell me.”
“You learn Langya, there are people in the world who can hurt you. Not many. But you can make an unannounced visit alone, and you may not know what will happen. Brother, I hope you will not forget that it is important to find out the truth, but your own safety must come first.”
Xiao Pingjing With a warm heart, he silently held his brother’s hand in his palm and nodded vigorously.
Xiao Pingzhang shook his hand lightly, and continued: “Second, I am the liang to govern the country, and the law is the first. Some tricks can be used, but you must not lose your sense. As long as you find out the inside story and get the evidence, you can trust the imperial court. You have your own justice. Don’t lynch for a moment of righteous indignation.” The
elder brother said so solemnly, Xiao Pingjing naturally did not dare to laugh, and hurriedly stood up, clasped his fists and said, “Pingjing understands what the elder brother ordered.”
At this time, the door of the outer door slammed softly, and Dong Qing came in with a bowl of hot soup, and Lin Xi followed him lightly.
When Xiao Pingjing looked back and saw it was her, a smile appeared on his face instinctively. He is a smart man. He knows that Lin Xi is in charge of his brother’s injury, but it is not a problem for him to offend others. He has found various opportunities in the past few days and has apologized twice.
In all fairness, Lin Xi didn’t shake his face much. When he went to apologize, people said it didn’t matter; he greeted him warmly, and people nodded in response; he gave the elixir of Langya Pavilion to please, but people politely said that he didn’t need it.
But Xiao Pingjing could clearly feel that Lin Xi didn’t particularly want to pay attention to him.
For example, right now, he was smiling so much that a flower was about to grow on his face, but Lin Xi seemed to have not seen it, nodded politely, and bowed slightly to Xiao Pingzhang before the couch, then sat down and began to check his pulse.
Xiao Pingjing didn’t dare to be disturbed at this time, and waited for a long time, only for a simple word: “It’s okay.” After that, there was no time to ask any more questions, and Lin Xi got up and left, and quickly without looking back. Leave.
The second son of Changlin, who couldn’t get a chance to speak, was a little frustrated, and sat down depressed and complained to his brother: “You see this girl is really stingy, but I was frightened at the time and said a few words without thinking, and she still cares about it to this day. What!” Xiao Pingzhang rinsed his mouth after drinking the medicine, and said with a smile: “I don’t think Miss Lin is someone who cares
about it, maybe it’s because you talk too much and people are annoying you.”
He was just joking with his younger brother, but at this time, Lin Xi was indeed a little upset.
The long-term bond between the two has been known since she was a child, and she knows better than anyone what Master is thinking these days. On the first night after Xiao Pingzhang escaped the danger, Li Qianzhi pretended to casually ask her about her impression of seeing Xiao Pingjing for the first time, and in the next few days, he took the opportunity to ask several times, which made Lin Xi very helpless.
When her mother was dying, she exhausted all her strength and said to her: “Mother knows the feeling of being frightened every day by marrying a soldier and sending him to battle. The wealth of the palace is like a cloud of smoke, and my mother only hopes that you will have… A person who lives together forever…”
Lin Xi always remembered her mother’s words, and always used this as an excuse to ask her master not to reveal her identity. But no matter what she said, she knew in her heart that the so-called mother’s fate was just an excuse. In fact, she didn’t mind that her future husband was going to the battlefield. The real reason why she insisted on avoiding it was that she didn’t want to marry at all, and she didn’t want to marry at all. Enter the Sensen Palace.
He followed his master to learn medicine and medicine since he was a child. From treating the first patient to being able to sit in the medical hall later, Lin Xi always knew exactly what he wanted.
It’s not about husbands and children, it’s not about a lifetime of stability, it’s not about honor, wealth, and the envy of others. All her happiness and satisfaction come from her intensive research and dedication to medical skills. She wants to see more unanswered questions, and wants to travel all over the world and taste all kinds of herbs.
Once the Houmen entered, it was as deep as the sea, not to mention the lintel of the Seven Pearl Palace. Lin Xi couldn’t imagine that he married into a deep house. Like other women, he was just a shadow behind his husband all his life.
Compared with the resistance in her heart, the character of the second son of Changlin, and whether he is likable or not, for her at this time, it is just the details.
Back in the small courtyard where she lived alone, Lin Xi shook off the anxiety in his chest, calmed down, and adjusted the prescription according to the injured person’s latest condition. Before he knew it, the sky had turned dark.
Li Qianzhi said goodbye to his old friend and came back. He seemed to be in a good mood. He seriously accompany the girl to discuss Xiao Pingzhang’s recipes. During this time, he did not mention the second son of Changlin, nor did he persuade her to reveal the truth as he did a few days ago. The identity made Lin Xi relax a little.
During dinner together in the evening, the old hall master picked the topics that the girl liked and chatted with her for a long time about medical theory, and finally brought up Datong Mansion.
“This crisis in Ganzhou originated in the section of the river where the ship sank at the rear. Because of this disaster, our Fufengtang also lost five doctors, and the teacher has always been worried that the semicolon of Datong will not be able to support it.” Li Qianzhi looked at Lin Xi’s calm face under the lamp, and carefully said in a negotiating tone, “If you are careful and calm, none of the disciples I have brought can compare to you. Now the injury of the prince has stabilized, and I think for the teacher. Let you take a trip to Datong, how about taking care of the aftermath?”
Lin Xi was naturally very concerned about the shipwreck of the doctor in the hall. She didn’t think too much about Li Qianzhi’s suggestion. She stood up and bowed, and replied, “Lin Xi obeys Master’s arrangement.”
Li Qianzhi put on a smile and let her sit down again. Said: “There are many doubts about this matter. Naturally, Prince Changlin will also send people to investigate. If there is anything you can do to help, you must do your best to help.”
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled. Why don’t you dare to receive carelessly, why do you need the help of my medical workshop?”
Li Qianzhi shook his head, “It’s hard for a clear investigation to have an effect on such a thing, so it’s not good to take people over from the north under the banner. I wonder what the lord means, it should be I’ll send someone to take a look first.” Li Qianzhi explained with a smile, “Although our medical workshop has no power or power, at least we are familiar with the land and can always help to some extent.”
Lin Xi didn’t think for a moment . Xiao Pingjing, after thinking for a moment, agreed: “If this matter is really related to the Datong Prefecture, then the palace has to deal with the local snakes who are familiar with the port. There are too many faces at once, which will inevitably make people suspicious.”
Seeing her nodding, Li Qianzhi immediately stopped talking, and instructed a few words on how to deal with the aftermath of the victims, then got up and left, and came to the inner courtyard where Xiao Pingzhang was recuperating.
Due to taking medicine during the day, Xiao Pingzhang slept on and off for a long time. At this time, he was in good spirits. He was reading the military newspaper that Dongqing helped him sneak in. When he saw the old hall master entering the door, he hurriedly stuffed it under the pillow.
Li Qianzhi smiled, but did not reveal it. After examining his pulse, he reprimanded him: “The best thing to do when recovering from an injury is to worry about it. Once the injury recurs and becomes chronic disease, it will not be worth the gain. The prince is so transparent, how could he not Do you understand this?”
Xiao Pingzhang has always had a gentle temperament, and knowing his good intentions, he bowed his head and listened, but did not refute a word. But the old hall master just walked away, and he couldn’t help but flip out the general’s newspaper on the back, and thought about it carefully while watching.
The abnormality of the Battle of Gannan, he had already noticed it when he was defending the city, and laying down and thinking about it for the past few days, his thoughts became clearer and clearer.
As we all know, Ganzhou Camp is directly under the direct jurisdiction of the prince, and it can be called the elite of the elite of the Changlin army. He has already come to sit in town, and it is impossible for Dayu to not know. Looking at the entire northern border, Gannan obviously should not be the place where the main force should be attacked first. However, apart from the two-day attack on Meiling, the Imperial Army’s overall strength was concentrated on attacking Ganzhou City, as if they knew very well that the city had been cut off from supplies, and its combat power was severely damaged.
But how did the enemy country know that the ship sank in the rear of Daliang?
The lamp on the small table by the couch burst lightly, making a crackling sound. Xiao Pingzhang woke up from his thoughts and suddenly saw his father standing by the door at an unknown time. He hurriedly sat up a little and called, “Father.”
Xiao Tingsheng stepped forward, his eyes stopped on the military newspaper in his hand, and he disagreed. Authentic: “It’s the most important thing for you to take care of your injuries first, and you’re eager to see these things!”
Xiao Pingzhang smiled, “The child has slept for too long, he’s not sleepy at this time, and he’s idle when he’s idle.”
Xiao Tingsheng walked to his bed He sat down, took care of the duvet, tried his best to keep his tone soft, and asked, “I heard Pingjing say that before you went to Ganzhou, you used to travel all night to see him at Langya Pavilion, didn’t you?”
Xiao Pingzhang The corners of his already gray lips slowly pursed, and his eyes dropped.
As soon as he woke up from the coma, he found that the Langya kit, which had been placed close to his shirt, had been tucked under his pillow. If he wanted to know what he should know, his father already knew.
Seeing that he was silent, Xiao Tingsheng looked away and sat silently with him, without urging or questioning. This child has been too perfect since he was a child, and behind all the perfection in the world, there is enormous pressure and hard self-control. As a father, he didn’t want to add the slightest burden to the eldest son.
“You naturally know that I didn’t just go to see Ping Jing…” After a long silence, Xiao Pingzhang finally raised his head and took out the Langya brocade bag from under the pillow, “I asked the old pavilion master a question, but This is the answer he gave me, have you seen it?”
Xiao Tingsheng’s eyes were soft and he shook his head gently, “I know everything, I don’t need to look at it. The key is you… After you know all this, what is in your heart? What do you think?”
Xiao Pingzhang was stunned, tears welling up in his eyes.
What do you think? After getting down from Langya Pavilion, his thoughts have been so chaotic, he wants to think about it, but he doesn’t want to think about it. It was only when an arrow in his chest was about to pierce his heart that he suddenly realized that he didn’t need to think about it at all.
If you just pass away, never see your father, never see Ping Jing, and never see your beloved wife who has been married for seven years and is looking forward to returning, then what is the point of clinging to these entanglements in the past?
“My child already understands that what happened in the past is not important.” Xiao Pingzhang half propped up his body, threw the kit in his hand into the brazier beside the bed, and watched the flames rise, “Father was born in such grief, In the end, I can put aside my original origin and only do my current responsibilities. Why can’t Pingzhang? I feel that now I know more about the father’s heart than before.”
Xiao Tingsheng’s chest was filled with warmth, “My father remembers that when you two brothers were young, their temperaments were completely different. Ping Jingfeiyang jumped out and was not afraid of the sky and the earth. The late emperor and His Majesty liked him more.” He patted the back of the eldest son’s hand and raised his voice a lot, “But You know in your heart, what that kid is, my favorite is always you.”
When he said the last sentence, he deliberately raised his voice a little, Xiao Pingjing, who had just arrived at the door, flattened his mouth and used his sideways He knocked on the door frame on his forehead and said, “Father, you clearly heard me coming, but you still have to say something like this. After so many years, are you afraid that I don’t know that you are partial?”
Xiao Tingsheng raised his eyebrows and scolded: ” Comparing yourself with your elder brother, shouldn’t you be partial to your father?”
Seeing the big brother laughing so hard that the wound hurts and bending over, Xiao Pingjing hurried over to help him rub his back, and took advantage of the opportunity to wink his eyes secretly. His eyes were all eager, which made Xiao Pingzhang suddenly feel a little embarrassed.
In fact, when Ping Jing was sent to Datong Mansion, the father and son had already negotiated and divided the work yesterday. Pharaoh went to ask Fufengtang to help him, but he deliberately hanged his younger brother, rubbing his usual escapism and impatience.
But I’m sorry, I’m sorry, at least from the point of view of the effect, this trick is really good.
“Big brother, have you told your father?” Xiao Pingjing was a little anxious when he saw his brother pursing his lips and said nothing.
Xiao Tingsheng cleared his throat and said with a stern face: “Okay, don’t make trouble with your eldest brother. He said a lot of good things for you just now, and your father has already allowed you to go to Datong Mansion. It’s just that this matter is different from what you used to do. Just kidding, since you really want to do it, you have to do it for me.”
“Father, don’t worry. But no matter how clever it is, there will be flaws in people’s plans. The child will never let his father go. The king is disappointed.” Xiao Pingjing raised his hand, and a shiny arrow tip appeared in his finger for some reason, “No matter who this matter is ultimately directed at, no matter what identity he has, for the sake of What is the reason, he dares to let my elder brother get hurt like this, and he can’t even think about retreating.”
Staring at the sharp tip of the arrow, Xiao Pingjing’s eyes were quite sharp, which made Xiao Tingsheng and Pingzhang’s heart uncontrollable. A Rin.
The two of them knew better than anyone else about this child’s temperament. The reason why he had to go to Datong Mansion in person this time was just because the life-and-death situation in Ganzhou had really stepped on his bottom line.
The bottom line shared by their father and son.
After a moment of silence, Old Wang suddenly slapped Xiao Pingjing on the head, scolding: “The cut-off of supplies will endanger the front line, and there may be some people in the country colluding with foreigners. This is a major matter of the court, so it is necessary to check. Clear. If you let this kid say it, it will become a personal grievance of our Changlin Palace?”
Xiao Pingjing rubbed the top of his head and retorted, “I don’t care about these high-sounding words. For me, although this is a public affair, it is definitely a personal grudge! It’s a private grudge!”
Xiao Tingsheng grabbed a tea bowl and smashed it from the side . After passing by, Xiao Pingjing ran away from the door, guarding his head.
On the bed, Xiao Pingzhang reluctantly smiled and said, “What does the king care about, Langya Pavilion has been raised for so long, so he must grow up like this.”
Xiao Tingsheng shook his head with a wry smile, turned around and looked at the eldest son’s pale lips. His pupils narrowed slightly, “But this kid is not completely wrong. No matter who did this, he will never want to get out.”
