When Gongsun's noble concubine was about to enter the palace, Murong Ba accidentally bumped into her. Murong Ba quickly apologized and said: "I'm sorry, Madam Gongsun, Murong Ba saluted you."
Gongsun Guifei covered her face and smiled, "That girl has been waiting for you for a long time, why don't you go quickly." After saying that, the accompanying maid also smiled at Murong Ba.
Murong Ba was embarrassed, held his hands in his hands, and walked straight out of the palace.
"Greetings to Sister Lan." Concubine Gongsun bowed and said as soon as she entered the room.
"Sister, don't be so polite." Concubine Lan quickly stood up to help Gongsun Guifei to rest on the bed.
Gongsun Guifei couldn't get up, so she just said: "Today, I want to ask my sister for something."
"Sister, just tell me, I will help you if you can. Sister, don't be polite." Concubine Lan just helped her up and sat on the couch.
"Sister, in today's world of great strife, many of the ministers, princes and concubines of the clan are serving in the army. My son, Murong Nong, also wants to join the army." Gongsun's noble concubine bowed to Concubine Lan and said, "However, my Gongsun family has a low position and a small position.
If you are not from the Xianbei clan, I'm afraid no one will recommend you. If my sister is not abandoned, I want my son to serve as a soldier in Murong Ba's army, what can you do?"
"This..." Concubine Lan was a little hesitant. It was not that she was unwilling to help Gongsun's noble concubine. In fact, Murong Ba was now leading the army. If he suddenly introduced the younger brother of the concubine in the palace to join his son's army, it would inevitably be suspected of forming a clique.
If you reject Gongsun's noble concubine's wishes, you won't regret it. Is it really difficult to do this?
Gongsun Guifei also saw the clues and said: "Since my sister is in such a difficult situation, it is not easy for my sister to force her. It is human nature to avoid suspicion and benefit. I will let my brother find another way." After that, she wanted to go out.
"Sister, wait a minute." Concubine Lan is really smart. She has already thought of a complete plan, so she said to Gongsun Guifei, "My sister's family affairs are my business. It is inconvenient to join Ba'er's army, but I think of one person who can definitely accept her.
Your brother."
"I also hope that my sister will recommend me. I would like to thank my sister for supporting my son." I saw the noble concubine Gongsun leave the warm bed and bow to Concubine Lan to pay her respects.
"The son of Concubine Gao, Murong Ke." Concubine Lan picked up Gongsun's noble concubine, dismissed the entourage, and led Gongsun's noble concubine to the courtyard to walk and chat.
Concubine Lan said in detail: "Murong Ke is deep and generous, respectful and filial to his friends. In addition, his mother is not favored, and both his sister and sister are Han Chinese. It is reasonable to join his army, so he will not be noticed by others."
Concubine Lan gently held Gongsun Guifei's hand and said: "The trees are beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy them. I don't care about my sister's brother. However, when the moon is full, it will lose money. Although Ba'er is in the limelight now, as a mother, she must
For this purpose, don't let it attract people's attention. Everyone in the world has the same feeling of pity for their children. Sister, you must understand me."
"Sister, please don't say this, otherwise your sister will become frightened." Concubine Gongsun wanted to apologize again. Concubine Lan quickly stopped her.
Gongsun Guifei said: "My sister always listens to my elder sister. If this is the case, I would like to ask my sister to introduce Mr. Ke to my brother."
"Of course." The two of them were seen holding hands tightly.
The two of them chatted in the courtyard for a long time, which was really pleasant. While they were talking, Concubine Lan suddenly thought to herself: "I wonder what Ba'er thinks?"
"Sister, Ba'er is smart, intellectually pure, and I like her very much, sister."
"It doesn't matter, the son is too old to stay." Concubine Lan turned around and said, "On the occasion of the Lantern Festival this year, we sisters will meet each other, and then I will introduce your brother to Mr. Na Ke."
"Excuse me, sister, for being so considerate. Thank you very much, sister."
"Well, with the current situation, we need to be far-sighted."
"Concubine Lan, Mr. Ba and Duan Xian are riding on a horse to the Beiyuan grassland." While speaking, the maid Xiao Ai entered the room to report.
"Beiyuan Grassland." Gongsun Guifei suddenly moved, struggling to lean on the table.
Concubine Lan had sharp eyes and said hurriedly: "Xiao Ai, please wait outside." Xiao Ai bowed and left.
"Sister, you know." Gongsun Guifei fell into Concubine Lan's arms at this time, "After a separation, the friendship is inseparable. After the separation in Beiyuan, things have changed now. I have married the King of Yan.
Wife, he has also returned to his country and restored his position. I will never speak to him, right?"
"Sister, you and I are like duckweeds in the water. The floating duckweeds are carried lightly by the wind. How can my heart be in harmony with it? The bed is empty, the curtains are low, and there is no one there." Now that the world is in chaos, the only thing to rely on is King Yan.
, can we make a decision. At that time, Murong Ren rebelled and Murong Han ran away. Liaodong was in chaos. Your Gongsun family relied on King Yan, otherwise you would not be the only one who was wrongfully killed."
Concubine Lan slowly wiped away Gongsun Guifei's tears and said, "King Yan also loves you. Now you have two sons. I will cultivate your two sons carefully to become the essence."
"What my sister said is that my heart is dead, but now that I see Murong Han again, I can't help but..."
Concubine Lan fiercely covered her mouth, "You can only treat him as dead. It is a taboo in the palace, sister reminds you."
"Sister knows."
There is still faint snow on the grassland of Beiyuan. At this moment, a black horse is carrying two people, galloping in the wilderness, aimlessly not knowing where to go. I can see snowflakes splashing behind the horse's hooves, and a white sky rises.
There was a vast mist. Not long after, the black horse ran to the river, but because it was unable to support it, it raised its front hooves, the horse neighed, and threw the two men off the horse.
The two men rolled over on the snow, but Duan Xian got up first and walked straight forward. Murong Ba quickly caught up and grabbed Duan Xian's arm.
But Duan Xian struggled to break away and said, "Don't let the slaves ruin your future." After saying that, he walked forward without looking back.
I saw Murong Ba shouting loudly from behind: "Be careful."
The bank of the river was slippery and muddy, and the snow covered the ground. If others didn't pay attention, they would fall down. But I was so angry that I didn't pay attention to anything, just walked straight, and accidentally fell down.
.
Just when Murong Ba was about to squat down and help her up, Duan Xian said angrily: "I am of low status and I am not worthy of the master's leadership." He blocked him with words, intending to stand alone.
Forward.
After walking a few steps, I fell again.
Murong Ba couldn't help but pick him up, found a dry and flat place and gently put Duan Xian down. He lowered his head and leaned over to check her ankle, only to see that the sprained area was swollen and the joints were black and blue.
Forward.
Murong Ba couldn't help but pick up a puddle of snow on the ground and rub his ankle, trying to eliminate the swelling. Gradually, the pain in Duan's foot gradually disappeared, and Murong Ba's hands were indeed red.
"You are not as cruel and rude as the other princes and princes, but you are also quite attentive." Duan Xian indeed no longer felt as angry as before.
But seeing Murong Ba staring at Duan Xian's face for a long time, Duan Xian was a little angry: "I just said that you are not like other princes and grandsons, how could I expect you to be like Meng Lang." After saying that, he turned to leave.
"Miss Duan, I'm sorry," Murong Ba said apologetically, "I saw that the girl's eyebrows are as tall as mountains but slightly shorter. If..."
"What if."
"If I can only enjoy the joy of your thrush every day, I will be lucky in this life," Murong Ba said with courage.
I saw that Duan Xian's face was crimson, and his cheeks were flushed as if they were covered by the morning glow, which made him look particularly beautiful.
"You are frivolous and shy." Duan Xian said in anger.
Murong Ba couldn't help but pick up Duan Xian on his back and walk slowly over the wilderness.
I only heard Duan Xian say: "My country has been destroyed and my clan has been destroyed. I am only lucky enough to be taken in by you. I am not as good as other virtuous and upright women. If you really want to marry me, will you regret it?"
But Murong Ba pointed to the snow-capped green mountains in the distance and said, "I swear by this snow-capped green mountains that I will never marry anyone but you."
But I heard Duan Xian say: "Put me down quickly?"
Murong Ba didn't know what he meant, so he had to put her down, only to hear Duan Xian said: "I would like to hear that Zhuo Wenjun of the Han Dynasty recited a book to Sima Xiangru with his old age. Now you are so popular. If King Yan doesn't allow it, what should you do? If you have
Two-hearted?”
"It's as white as snow on the mountain, as bright as the moon in the clouds. I heard that you have two opinions, so I came here to fight. Today is a drinking party, and the water in the ditch will be wet tomorrow. I'm walking on the ditch, and the ditch water flows east and west. It's miserable and miserable again, and I'm getting married.
You don’t need to cry to get married." Murong Ba pointed at the white snow and blue clouds and said, "I wish to win the heart of one person."
Duan Xianhe said: "The white head will not be separated."
I saw outside this wilderness, under the white snow, a gurgling stream, and an egret spread its wings in the distance. Two young people embraced each other in their arms.
The sun had already set, and the gate of Jicheng City had been closed. However, Murong Ba hugged Duan Xian and walked slowly on his horse, arriving at the gate of Jicheng City.
"Who is coming? Didn't you know that our country, Yan, has an order that at three o'clock the evening drum has passed, the city gates are closed, and all pedestrians must go back to their places, and no one is allowed to disobey the order."
"I am Murong Ba, General Pingdi, open the city gate quickly." Murong Ba shouted from his horse.
"What's the meaning of 'low' and 'high'? The villain only knows the military orders and can only open this gate according to the edicts. Otherwise, I can't obey the orders." The guard of the city gate bowed his hands and stopped responding.
"Be brave, I am the Murong royal family, be careful I report your city gate order and cut off your dog's head." Murong Ba was very angry and wanted to rush in.
But Duan Xian hugged his arm, held his cheek with one hand and said: "Murong Ba, this is a person who abides by the law and must be rewarded. Only when orders and prohibitions are implemented can the government's orders be smooth. If everyone opens the door to convenience, this country's political affairs
Don’t have any more ambitions and take it seriously.”
"Duan Xian is right. The achievements of Yan State in recent years are all due to your sergeants. I am reckless." Murong Ba picked her up and dismounted gently. "But your foot injury has not healed. You and I can only work together tonight."
Waiting under this city gate."
"It's okay. With you by my side, it won't be a problem." Duan Xian said.
It was night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The moon around the winter solstice was extraordinarily round. The silver glow shone on the pearls on Duan Xian's head, glowing with a faint light. Murong Ba held her in his arms, and Duan Xian fell asleep in Murong Ba's arms.
, Murong Ba took advantage of this to look at her secretly, and saw that her eyelashes were curved and curved, like crescent moons, and pretty. Her red lips were lightly closed, her skin was like gelatin, which could be broken by blowing, and her hair was as thin as filaments.
But I saw Duan Xian suddenly burst into laughter in his sleep, his smile was full of dimples, but he was graceful and graceful.
Murong Ba looked at her carelessly and infatuated, and wanted to kiss her gently on the cheek, but when she turned her head, he quickly stopped for fear of waking her up. Looking at Duan Xian, Murong Ba also gradually fell asleep.
The moon was already high in the sky, when suddenly the city gate opened, and a group of Yan troops came out, led by Murong Jun.
The forward general also did not expect that there was a man and a woman here under the city gate at this moment. He said hurriedly: "General Guangwei, please don't let others know about this secret. I think this couple is trying to miss my big event. Let's let them know."
I killed them."
"Wait a minute." Murong Jun dismounted and checked, "Who do I think he is? It turns out he is the domineering young master. It feels so comfortable to have a beautiful woman in his arms."
At this moment, Murong Ba and Duan Xian were both awake. After hearing this, their faces turned even redder. Murong Ba said: "I was playing outside the city, but I missed the time, so I have no choice but to be here."
"Even if it's a mistake, there's no need to hug each other. The talented man and the beautiful woman are a perfect match." Murong Jun said with a smile on his face.
"Uncle Jun, don't laugh at us." Murong Ba noticed that Murong Jun was here. The soldiers were neatly dressed, all wearing black armor, and the soldiers were silent, so he asked, "Uncle Jun, what is the purpose of going here?"
Uncle Jun was about to speak when he saw the general beside him stop him and said: "Master Ba, this is a secret matter in the army, so I don't think I should ask any more questions, right?"
Murong Ba had doubts in his heart as to why the prince of the Murong family was under the control of the generals, but he did not think much about it. He raised his hand and said: "If it is military affairs, it is not convenient to ask. I just have something to do."
"My nephew, let me tell you, if I can do it, I will do it with all my strength."
But Ba'er and Duan Xian were embarrassed and said, "We are already late. Can you please be accommodating to the city gate guards and let us in?"
"That's it, it's easy to talk about. Let me tell you to come down from the city gate." Murong Jun sent an order to the guard.
After a while, the city gate officer hurriedly came downstairs and saw Murong Jun raising his waist card and saying: "This card gives you the power to do things cheaply. I order you to let these two people return to the city."
The man looked at it hurriedly and said: "It is the order of the former military advisor general. I understand." He raised his voice and said, "Brothers, I have invited you two to return to the city." After that, all the guards went to the city.
They all lined up and asked Murong Ba and Duan to enter the city first.
"Nephew, let's just say goodbye." After saying that, the leader of Murong's army headed west without hesitation.
"Murong Ba, that's strange, did you hear that?" Duan Xian was thinking clearly.
"What's going on?" Murong Ba asked puzzledly.
"The city gate commander let him in after hearing Murong Ping's token. He is really powerful." Duan Xian said.
"Who says it's not the case? It's just that during the Murong Ren Rebellion, Murong Ping played an important role in helping the country. The King of Yan entrusted him with state affairs, so he has considerable power." Murong Ba was helpless.
"It's getting late, Murong Ba, please go back to your mother and concubine quickly, don't worry her anymore." Duan Xian turned to look at him, but there was a lot of reluctance in his eyes.
"Then I will take you back to Gongsun Guifei's residence first." Murong Ba was about to get on his horse, holding his hands tightly.
"Murong Ba, we have a long time to come, so we don't have to rush for this moment." Duan Xian said goodbye to Murong Ba reluctantly.
"Everyone, please send Miss Duan back. If anything goes wrong, I'll take it from you." Murong Ba said to the sergeants.
Of course, the sergeants hurriedly bowed their hands. They had already been unhappy about something before, and now they were even more afraid that something might go wrong.
"Miss Duan." Murong Ba shouted, but when Duan was stunned, Murong Ba kissed her unexpectedly.
"I hate it." Duan Xian was angry and his face turned red. He saw Murong Ba riding his horse and whipping his whip, heading straight to Concubine Lan's palace. Duan Xian was unwilling to leave for a long time, until the sergeant urged him, and then he came back to his senses.
.
In the blink of an eye, Murong Ba had arrived in front of Concubine Lan's palace, but saw no one on either side of the palace, only Uncle Lan Jian in front.
Seeing Murong Ba, Lan Jian shouted: "You are back, your mother is dying of panic."
"I'm sorry for bothering my mother, uncle, I'll go in and apologize to my mother." After saying that, Murong Ba bowed deeply to Lan Jian and paid homage.
"Your uncle is fine. Come in quickly."
I saw the candlelight flickering in Concubine Lan's bedroom, and Concubine Lan was sulking beside the bed.
"Mother." Murong Ba just knelt at his mother's feet.
"You are thinking of your mother today." Concubine Lan was very angry, "You are just obsessed with that little girl."
"Mother, Mr. Duan is smart and smart, just like you, mother."
"Shut up, if you are smart, you should not hinder your future." Concubine Lan was about to cry.
"Mother, what do you mean?" Murong Ba didn't know how to persuade her.
"Your father has favored you for a long time. He has allowed you to lead the army and be given a title, all for the sake of becoming the heir apparent of the Yan Kingdom." Concubine Lan finally couldn't help it anymore, "The Duan family is the family of your Murong family.
Scar, you don't have to uncover it again."
"How about the title, how about the crown prince?" Murong Ba wanted to get up and walked out of the palace. "If we can accompany each other in the white head, and the two will not bear each other, what about the king?" After saying this, he left Concubine Lan's palace without knowing it.
