Chapter 38 Fancy Killing Style 38:
After a while, Prince Wen Zhan still thought of a way, got rid of the supervision of the female emperor, and came to find Qi He's new favorite - Lemon.
Qi He heard classmate Lemon's energetic "barking" from a long distance away. He was very enthusiastic and crazy, and he refused to be honest in the arms of the prince. He twisted his short limbs and wanted to get off the ground, desperately trying to prove that he was A puppy that can walk alone.
The crown prince was also tormented by this dog, he didn't have the patience and love for small animals that ordinary people would have.Originally, Ai Wu and Wu Di could tell themselves that this is Qi He's dog, so they should be more pleasing to each other's eyes.As a result, Wen Zhan's patience was completely exhausted after being made such a fuss all the way. All he could think about now was stewed dog meat, and that it really was a crap gift from Situ Qi!Really annoying!
When he walked to Qi He's side, Wen Zhan glanced imperceptibly at Situ Qi who was training not far away, and then said: "There's nothing to see here, let's go?"
"Your Highness isn't busy anymore?" Qi He seemed to have both feet stuck into the ground, and remained motionless, turning a deaf ear to Wen Zhan's proposal, and he answered with a random question.
Qi He didn't want to go for a walk with the prince, but he didn't want to gossip in public.
"I have some free time for now, so I came to see you." Wen Zhan said with a smile, his eyes were gentle and his temperament was excellent, but he insisted on living in his own world and refused to come out.
Most people will be moved when they hear this, because it implies "you are so interesting and attract me more than anything".But to Qi He, it was "I just want to hang on you", he was not moved, he only had a headache, and he was a little bit at a loss as to what to do. Wen Zhan understood that it was really impossible for the two of them.
When Qi He was in a dilemma, Situ Qi, who had already led the team back around the ridge, loudly arranged for the team to rest on the spot and the deputy captain was in charge, and then ran over.
Situ Qi was very upright and confident, so he greeted the prince first: "Your Highness."
"Why doesn't General Situ continue to train?" The prince didn't like Situ Qi very much. Like Xie Wang, he had already felt the threat from Situ Qi.Everyone was the same in front of Qi He. At that time, Wen Zhan could still comfort himself. Qi He was born with such a personality. He was used to keeping a distance from everyone and was fooled by books.However, when Situ Qi appeared, Qi He changed. Situ Qi was so obviously favored by Qi He.
The existence of Situ Qi seems to remind everyone that Qi He also has a different side, but that side will not be revealed to them.
But why?
He is Qi He's cousin, they grew up together, they should have been together forever!
"I want to ask His Highness to show up here, why do you want to correct me?" Situ Qi cupped his hands and answered neither humble nor overbearing, neither provocative nor afraid of the crown prince.
And this is exactly the attitude that Daqi admired the most when facing the powerful.
Never break your brows!
It is very different from the social atmosphere in the later era when the centralization of power reached its peak and everyone was a slave to the royal power, and everyone would be terrified if they said a little disrespectful word.
The prince Wen Zhan raised his eyebrows, and he was even more sure that he didn't like Situ Qi. It wasn't because he felt that his authority as the prince was being challenged, but because he felt that Situ Qi was deliberately embarrassing him in front of Qi He. .But who is the prince?He immediately counterattacked: "Correct me, I don't dare to say, I just want to ask the major general whether he has been doing his job like this, or...?"
"Perhaps it's the same thing." Situ Qi was not polite, and turned back again, "I see that Your Highness is also very free."
As the number one dandy in Sijiu City, Situ Qi has never been afraid of anyone, he can be regarded as eloquent in front of everyone except Qi He.Even he himself couldn't figure out how he turned into a jagged gourd when he saw Qi He in the past.
The prince looked at Situ Qi with an unfriendly expression, and really wanted to teach this stunned young man a lesson.However, Wen Zhan also thought that the Lengtouqing in front of him was not something he could beat, so he had no choice but to give up in the end.The scariest thing in this world is this. You are playing with your brains with the other party, but the other party wants to compete with you.
The prince has been both civil and military since he was a child, he is diligent in riding and shooting, and he is not a showman in martial arts.He is not weak, but "not weak" depends on who he compares with, at least he cannot beat Situ Qi who can freely enter and exit the palace.
It may be possible to use some dirty tricks, but with Qi He watching from the sidelines, such actions are unavoidable.
The whole world knows that Young Master He is a gentleman, Wen Zhan reasoned like this, and felt that Qi He would not like to see too despicable martial arts methods and competitions.
When the two of them were in such a stiff confrontation, Qi He finally stood up.
His central theme is only one, don't quarrel, want harmony, not as good as us...
"Let's have hot pot." Qi He said.
Situ Qi & Prince: "???"
Qi He further explained: "In this world, there is no problem that can't be solved by a hot pot meal. If there is, then two meals!"
To put it simply, Qi He wants to eat hot pot.
The prince immediately said: "What a coincidence, Gu also thinks so."
Situ Qi gave the prince a disdainful look of "you licking a dog".
"Don't you want to eat?" Qi He turned to look at Situ Qi.
Situ Qi immediately raised his chest and looked up: "I like hot pot the most!"
"Heh, do you know what hot pot is? You just like it, and lying is also a bit technical, okay?" The prince sneered.Daqi's official name for hot pot is actually "Antique Soup", which is named after the sound of the hot pot boiling. It is the earliest form of hot pot. The pot is made of a tripod. "Hot pot" is Qi He's own name. When he was a child, he was joked in good faith that children can't speak, so he made up a word for himself.
"Of course I know." Situ Qi raised his chin slightly, shattering the prince's sense of superiority, "I ate with Ah He."
In just two sentences, the fight between masters has already started again.The prince originally thought that this was something that only those close to Qi He would understand, but he never expected that Situ Qi would already be close to Qi He.
Qi He put forward his idea again, and the three of them separated to prepare the hot pot.
Qi He's purpose is very clear, that is to do everything in his power to separate Situ Qi from the prince.These two people are now like two fighting cocks, one can peck at each other if they don't look good at each other.
For this reason, Qi He forcibly increased the difficulty of eating hot pot, saying that only the hot pot prepared by themselves is the really delicious hot pot.
The accent is placed on the word "self".
"Say, how do you do it?" Situ Qi and the prince spoke in unison, and once again began an invisible contest. The eyes of the two met in the air, as if there were crackling electric currents daring dangerous sparks.
Qi He was so exhausted physically and mentally that he couldn't take care of more, and only wanted to separate the two as soon as possible.He asked Situ Qi to be responsible for finding, cutting and slicing the meat, and asked for it to be as thin as a cicada's wing, beef, mutton and rabbit meat. He wanted to eat any kind of meat.And let the prince be responsible for finding suitable pots and hot pot ingredients, which is really not easy to find in Wubao, but the mandarin duck pot is not enough to satisfy Qi He, he still wants to eat a variety of different flavors.
Anyway, it was enough to keep them apart all morning.
"I'm in charge of the vegetables." Qi He also assigned himself a task, and made it clear that he could bring his maid and servants to help—if he didn't help, Qi He wouldn't be able to feel at ease and let the two of them disregard the five grains and the four. The elder and young master who is not working hard can do it - but there must be a part that he personally participates in.
The prince and Situ Qi nodded at the same time, and then got busy because they didn't want to lose to each other.
The prince took a quick step towards Situ Qi, because Situ Qi still had a team waiting for training and needed him to settle down.
Qi He also immediately began to choose vegetables.In the twelfth lunar month of winter, vegetables are more scarce than meat, especially in the north, where every household stores either cabbage or potatoes.If you want to eat something else, it is really more difficult than going to heaven.Qi He tried his best to find only a few items, and they were all pitifully few.
The news that Qi and the three of them wanted to eat hot pot spread like wildfire, and even reached the ears of the empress.It is inconvenient for the female emperor to show up at Wubao, but the grand lady sent by her side said euphemistically that she made the best dipping sauce in the world.
Qi He: "..."
Not only that, but Mrs. Jiang also came to join in the fun, saying that as long as she was added, she would have the ability to conjure up fresh fish for Qi He and let him eat a different pot.
In the end, even Qi Tong couldn't help being tempted. He found Qi He, held back for a long time, and finally made it clear that he could prepare a charcoal fire to ensure that there would not be too much smoke.
What can Qi He say?He could only agree to all of them, and sent someone to inform the young lady and young man of the Jiang family.
Eating hot pot is naturally crowded, especially in winter. Really, there is nothing more suitable than this. It is even more lively when everyone sits together, watching the clouds and clouds, and gossip.
After working hard all morning, everyone finally gathered in Qihe's small courtyard and ate the hot pot that made people's index fingers move.
On the big round table, there are several small stoves, each with a copper tripod soup pot, with a deep belly and a round bottom, divided into five compartments, and each compartment is filled with different colors and flavors.The maidservant lowered the real thinly sliced red meat into the pot, making a gurgling sound.
Thousands of pots and a hundred flavors, steaming hot, everyone held up their chopsticks to eat, the atmosphere gradually became better, and they ate heartily.
In addition to hot pot, there are also a variety of side dishes.Last month, I personally cooked the small crispy meat, which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fat but not greasy, making people salivate and unforgettable.
"How can it be so delicious!" Quyue secretly gave out a little bit to Shuangyue, and Shuangyue hid behind and almost cried after eating it, it was really delicious.
The family ate happily until the end, and thus ushered in the first heavy snow that year together.
Satisfied with food and drink, Qi He couldn't help standing up and walking to the door, stretching out his hand to catch the heavy snow falling from the sky, he looked at the six-petal crystal in his palm in surprise, and said to the people in the room: " Look, it's snowing."
In a piece of snow and silver, the world becomes extraordinarily beautiful.
Qi He became very playful, and suddenly wanted to build a snowman in the yard.Situ Qi and the prince had no choice but to keep up, and they also piled up with Qi He. Unfortunately, in the end, Qi He's snowman could not be piled up, but there was a snowball fight for no reason.
I don't know who the first snowball came from, but I only know that the snowball landed on the prince accurately, and it didn't hurt. After all, the snowball didn't roll very tightly, and it scattered almost before the prince's eyes. But like a goddess scattering flowers, the prince fell all over his body.The prince is a man who must take revenge, and his first reaction was to attribute Xueqiu's crime to Situ Qi, and quickly counterattacked.
Situ Qi was still teasing the prince, but when he was hit suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, and when he realized it, he must be unbearable and must be beaten back!
A big battle is inevitable, and even Shuangyue, Quyue and others were dragged into the water.Qi He laughed loudly, having been aggrieved for so long, he really needed such an indulgence.
In "A Hail of Bullets", Situ Qi always protects Qi He from harm.
The prince was even more angry, he also wanted to protect Qi He!
Lemon ran around excitedly at everyone's feet, turning into a white dog through and through, leaving plum blossom footprints one after another in the snow.
Situ Qi was "injured" several times in order to protect Qi He, and Qi He couldn't help asking him, "Are you stupid, this is just snow."
Situ Qi shook his head, he was serious about protecting Qi He!
The female emperor and Mrs. Jiang sat on the porch together, looking at the rare and childish children, as if they were particularly indifferent to the world.But only the palace lady next to the empress knew that the first snowball that started this war was precisely from the empress.Don't ask her how she knew, she was the one who made the snowball for the emperor, and she was the one who covered it later.
There were screams and laughter.
"It would be great if it was like this next year." Qi He expressed such emotion.
Prince Wen Zhan was standing beside Qi He. At this moment, he seemed to be no longer the prince, but just an ordinary cousin Wen Zhan. He said to Qi He, "Of course, we will definitely come again next year."
In the palace, under the peace and prosperity.
Situ Qi swore secretly in his heart that he would definitely fulfill Qi He's wish.
……
Qi He stayed in Wupu just like that.
Watching the people in Wubao work at sunrise and rest at sunset every day, I feel the idyllic life of seclusion, tranquility, plainness, and...
Very, very boring!
Qi He knows that some people, even a large number of people, have longed for such a simple and simple life in the field, feeling the fragrance of the soil, listening to the rain and watching the poetic life of flowers blooming. It will be washed, and will no longer be affected by cross-current material desires.
Qi He used to believe so firmly.
But now, when Qi He has truly experienced the so-called pastoral life, he can say responsibly that he doesn't like it.He didn't know if others would like it, but he wouldn't anyway.It's not a question of whether the work is tiring or not, anyway, Qi He doesn't really need to pick up a hoe to go to the field to farm, but other than that, he has nothing.
In modern times, there are TVs, Internet, and mobile phones, as if the whole world is vying to say hi to you.
Never worry about boring problems.
But in ancient times, when it took a lot of effort to light an oil lamp, the peaceful life of living in seclusion in the countryside was really peaceful, because there was nothing but peace.
On the first day when he came to Wupu, Qi He was very happy. He ate hot pot and had a snowball fight. Finally, he was lying on the recliner in the small courtyard, like a lazy cat, sleeping in the dark with a lemon in his arms, as if he was going to sleep in the dark. Get back all the sleep time you missed during this time because of fear.Even if he got sick in the end without accident, he was still very happy.
However, after he recovered from his illness, when he was so sleepy that he really didn't want to sleep anymore, Qi He got up, looked around in a daze, and finally thought of a question: besides these, can he have any other entertainment or life?
It seems that there is no more.
Even the empress dormantly waited, Qi He was fine, she was a rich and idle person through and through.When he was imprisoned in the palace, anyway, he still had writing books as a way to pass the time, and that was when his creative desire was at its strongest.
But the problem now is that when he ran, he only remembered to bring Yuxi and lemon.
Now that the jade seal has been returned to its original owner, it has been delighted and praised by the empress, and it is placed in her study; Lemon has also changed from a little white dog with precious land and little dust on its four hooves, to a full-fledged dog. The idyllic dog that rolls around all day in the field and is loved by everyone is extremely happy.
Only Qi He discovered to his dismay that he forgot to take out the manuscript.All the things he had written were in vain, after all, he didn't have any photographic memory.That is, many people have a misunderstanding, thinking that the author will definitely remember what he has written, but this is really not the case, especially when the author has written more than one book, his memory for the book is very limited .
At least it is impossible to lose the manuscript, and turn around and be able to silently read another one.
It was even worse for Qi He, his thinking was usually of the type of unrestrained thinking, writing wherever he thought of, he had to catch the fleeting inspiration and write it down on the spot, and it was over when he finished writing.When it was put together in the end, he sometimes even wondered, I really wrote this?
The current situation is that Qi He has not had time to integrate, but only recorded his inspirations here and there, and there is a rough outline.
The outline and Qihe can almost write it out.
But that's about it.
Looking at the outline, Qi He really didn't have any interest in writing. It would be very boring to rewrite what he had written, and he really couldn't retell and write out all the content he had written.Bite the bullet and continue writing, Qi He is worried that his previous manuscripts will never be found again, after all his manuscripts are all in the palace, and the palace is in such a mess now, anything is possible.
In short, it is very annoying, especially the tangled kind of annoying.
At this moment, Situ Qi knocked on the gate of Qihe's courtyard.Today's troop training is over. He should have been exhausted. He should go back to rest and prepare for the next day.
But the feet were just disobedient, what could he do with them?
In a blink of an eye, when he raised his head, Qi He's small courtyard was already in sight.The black door, the white wall, and an old tree that has all fallen leaves but still stands tall and straight in the courtyard are so conspicuous.
Qi He asked Situ Qi in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Situ Qi presented the flowers in his hand, um, when he was running with the soldiers, Situ Qi fell in love with the flowers along the way, and after searching and comparing, he was sure that the one in front of him was bravely blooming. Flowers in early winter.The aroma is tangy and delicate.No one told Situ Qi that he wanted to send flowers, or why he wanted to send flowers. He just subconsciously thought that Qi He would like it, and it would make him feel good.
Qi He took the flowers, and he was really pleasantly surprised. Although he complained about the pastoral life, he didn't like it at all, like the green mountains and green waters, or the flowers in front of him.
"Give it to me? Thanks, I love it."
Situ Qi was very upbeat this time, tried his best to hold back his shyness, and extended an invitation to Qi He: "Want...to go for a walk? It's very beautiful here at night."
"Okay." Qi He agreed by accident.
When Qi He and Situ Qi were walking side by side, carrying lamps, on the ridge of the field, he realized how strong the sight of a primary school chicken falling in love is!Qi He unobtrusively glanced at the tall and reliable Situ Qi beside him who didn't know when he had grown up, well, this one is still like a skinny boy, and he is describing the fun of going to Situ's hometown when he was a child to build roof tiles and go fishing in the sea What about childhood.Immediately, all worries about being in love or not being in love disappeared from Qi He's mind.
No one talks about love like this!
After a while, they went from a piece of tranquility to another world.
Situ Qi took Qi He up to the inaccessible high place above Wubao, where there was a cliff below him, but when he looked up, he could see the stars in the night sky.On the endless pitch-black curtain, there are dots of stars that are hundreds of millions of light-years away.
The ancients didn't know that there was a universe beyond that, but they already understood the fact that looking up at the sky and the earth is like floating.
"Look." Situ Qi pointed to the brightest star for Qi He.
He didn't do anything else, he just wanted Qi He to realize that no matter when and where, he could always find happiness for him to pass the time, just like the flower back then.Situ Qi can always discover things that others can't, and bring subtle touches.
Situ Qi supported Qi He and carefully sat on a high place.
The higher the place, the colder it is, let alone in the mountains in early winter, even if Qi He is wearing a thick cloak and covering his face with the fur edge.He could only cuddle with Situ Qi to keep warm, but he was so stupid that he couldn't think of leaving here.
Because the night sky that has not been polluted is really beautiful, magnificent, and refreshing.
Qi and Ha exhaled a cloud of white air, which blended indiscriminately with the white air exhaled by Situ Qi when he was about to speak.Qi He laughed, but Situ Qi didn't know what he thought of, his mind went blank, and he even forgot what he wanted to say.
"The stars we see with our naked eyes may have exploded and died hundreds of millions of years ago, and their light reaching our pupils at this moment is the most mysterious accident—" Since Situ Qi didn't say anything, Qi He said the same thing, He is both a writer and a reader, and he can't remember what he has written because he thinks they are full of utilitarianism and tasteless, but he can remember every word of the master's work. The sentence in "Prince"."
Thank you for bringing me such a mysterious accident, even if you may not know it.
Situ Qi is worthy of his status as a straight man. After thinking for a while, he skipped the link of asking what "The Little Prince" is, and said slowly: "You mean, what we see now are actually the corpses of stars hundreds of millions of years ago ?”
Qi He: "..." Okay, he really confirmed once again that this is definitely not a relationship.
But inexplicably, seeing Situ Qi's stupid expression of seriousness and trying to understand, Qi He burst out laughing, he didn't even know why he was laughing.
It's just that this young man who is much taller than him even when sitting down is so cute.
It was so cute that when he thought of this scene before going to bed at night, the corners of his lips could not help but rise.In his eyes and heart, there was only Situ Qi, Situ Qi's breathing, Situ Qi's maturity, and Situ Qi's eyes shining brighter than the night sky.
Qi He suddenly remembered a rustic love story.
——I think your eyes are brighter and more beautiful than stars, but I think mine are more beautiful than yours because...you are in my eyes.
The next day, as soon as Qi He opened his eyes, he saw another bouquet of flowers, which were very small white flowers, a large bouquet gathered together, very much like the stars from last night.They were placed in front of Qi He's eyes like this.
Qu Yue said that it was delivered by General Situ carefully early in the morning, for fear of disturbing the young master's sleep, he put it down and left.
General Situ put down together with the flowers, and there was also a stack of things written silently overnight.
Those are all the manuscripts that Situ Qi read Qi He wrote in the palace. There are manuscripts that Qi He has already discarded, and there are also parts that Qi He is working on, except that Situ Qi was not able to participate when Qi He was put under house arrest by Wang Xian. For the part, Situ Qi wrote down what he knew, and sent it to Qi He, solving the biggest problem for Qi He.
Qi He looked at the rice paper in surprise, he didn't even know that Situ Qi had such a photographic memory.
Situ Qi led the soldiers and ran far past Qi He's small courtyard, his eyes uncontrollably looked at the small courtyard again, not knowing whether Qi He woke up, whether he saw the flowers, whether he saw the paper.Situ Qi is most annoyed by reading and writing, and he doesn't have a photographic memory, it's just, just...
Qi He is really important to him, that's all.
He will remember everything about Qi He.
