chapter Five

On the day of leaving, Sanxi stood at the entrance of the temple and said goodbye to Master Wuwang; then got on the carriage and left. There were two carriages in total, Sanxi and Jiuwei sat in the front one, and the beginning of winter were responsible for driving; the beginning of spring and the beginning of summer were driving, and the beginning of autumn was driving. After Sanxi got on the carriage, the carriage moved; heading down the mountain.

In the carriage, Jiuwei saw Sanxi sitting down and asked, "Where are we going?"

"Beijing."

The carriage had been around for nearly a day and arrived at the capital in the evening. The capital of Anguo of Sui was still so prosperous. Even though it was late at night, there were still many people coming and going on the road.

After entering the city, the carriage went straight to the direction of the General's Mansion, and then stopped at the gate of the General's Mansion. Sanxi took a hat covered with long veil and put it on before leaving the car.

There was a group of people standing at the gate of the general's mansion. In the middle was an old man of about sixty or seventy. Although his hair was a little gray, his body was still strong. As soon as Sanxi got off the car, he saw the old man walking up to him and smiling and said, "I have been waiting for you for a day. I have been on the carriage for a day. Come and rest in the house."

This person is the former general of the country protection - Xin Wanggui.

Sanxi brought a group of people into the general's mansion and followed Xin Wanggui into the house. Xin Wanggui held Sanxi's hand and said, "You have not come back for so many years. I have kept your former Lanyueju for you, and the things inside have not moved. I will send someone to clean every once in a while. You can move directly when you come back this time. The things inside are guaranteed to be the same as before."

Sanxi said: "Actually it doesn't matter where I live, I'm just staying for a while. You just asked me to reply in the letter, but something big happened."

Xin Wanggui said, "Don't worry, you're tired all the way, have a full meal first, and we'll talk later. Come on, don't you serve the food soon."

Lichun looked at the person sitting with Sanxi and said, "Master, then we..." Sanxi looked at Lichun and said, "You can take them down and settle down first, wait for me to go back." "Yes, yes, yes, let's take them down and settle down." Xin Wanggui looked at the group of people who came with Sanxi and said hurriedly.

After the Lichun and the others went down, the servants successively served the dishes. Xin Wanggui waved his hand to the servants around him and said, "Go down!"

"Come on, try this. I remember you liked this the most before, and this one." Xin Wanggui kept saying while picking up food for Sanxi.

After taking a bite of the dish, Sanxi said to Xin Wanggui: "Brother, there is no one anymore. If you have anything to do, just tell me!"

Xin Wanggui put down his chopsticks, sighed and said, "Sanxi, we haven't seen each other for so many years. Look at you, you are still the same as before, and I am already half a person who is about to be buried. The past few years have only been a moment for you, but for me it is half my life!"

Sanxi looked at Xin Wanggui, whose hair was already gray, and thought to himself: Yes, when she left, he was still in his youth and was full of energy, but now his face is full of wrinkles and much older.

Sanxi finally asked, "How have you been doing over the years?"

"It's not that, but, not long after you left, Sui An started a war with Sheng An. That year, I took the lead to the battle. It took less than five years to fight them, and they still dare not come to invade." Xin Wanggui was very happy when he heard Sanxi ask about his life on his own initiative, and he danced like a child and told his glorious deeds.

After listening quietly for a while, Sanxi asked, "Then you write to me this time, please make sure I'll come back, why?"

After hearing this, Xin Wanggui sighed and said, "I want you to come back because I want to ask you to help me see if I can save someone."

The two of them had a very harmonious chat, but the other side was different. After Jiuwei arrived at Lanyueju, he was unable to sit and stood there. He kept walking around the room. Lixia couldn't watch it anymore and said, "Young Master Jiuwei, can you stop turning, I feel dizzy."

Jiuwei became more anxious after hearing Lichun's words. He turned around and said, "It's been so long, Sanxi hasn't come back yet; what exactly is she talking to that lustful old man? It's been so long!"

After hearing his words, Lixia felt puzzled and asked, "Sexy old man? Who is that?"

"It was when we came, the old man with gray hair, who was so old that he still grabbed the little girl's hand!"

After hearing his words, Lixia burst out laughing and said, "That's not a lustful old man. He is a great hero in Sui Anren's heart. If you want to let the people outside hear these words, even if you look handsome, you will be thrown into rotten eggs by them."

"What does Sanxi have to do with that lustful old man? Why did he come back with a letter from Sanxi?" Jiuwei suddenly ran to Lixia and asked.

"They are..." Lixia was about to say it, but suddenly she thought of something, and the topic changed and said, "You should wait for the master to come back and ask her by yourself. I dare not say anything."

Jiuwei thought he wanted to know the result, but he only heard one sentence, and said in a resentful tone: "If you don't say it, don't say it, I'll go ask Lichun."

Lixia heard this and said, "Unless the master takes the initiative to tell you about this, no one will tell you. It's the same for everyone you want. And Lichun is now busy organizing the things we brought with him with Liqiu. I will definitely relate to you." Lixia yawned and walked out while saying, "Master just sent someone to spread the message that he would come back later. If I'm tired, I'll go to rest. I'm going to go to bed. You can turn here slowly."

On the other side, after the meal, Sanxi asked while singing tea, "Who has such a big face that is worthy of you?"

"This person is really not an ordinary person; he is the crown prince of the current dynasty." Xin Wanggui and Cha said slowly to Sanxi.

It turned out that since Emperor An of Sui ascended the throne, there was only one empress in the harem, except that; there were no other concubines, but the empress had not been released for many years, so the ministers in the court advised the emperor: the empress had not been released for many years and asked for a concubine. Not only did the emperor not obey, but instead cut the position of the minister who made the suggestion. Although this matter caused dissatisfaction among many ministers, the emperor ordered that who would mention this matter in the future would implicate the nine clans.

Later, the queen finally became pregnant and gave birth to a dragon son for the emperor. The little prince was made the crown prince as soon as he was born. However, the little prince was born weak and raised with precious medicinal materials from childhood to adulthood. Only then did he grow up safely. However, some imperial doctors had already asserted that the crown prince would not survive the age of weak, and the crown prince was nineteen this year. A few days ago, he was unconscious due to a high fever coma and had not yet woken up. The emperor ordered the miracle doctors in the world to save the crown prince. If he could save it, he would definitely give up his gold and get the official position. But everyone he found said that the crown prince was helpless.

After hearing this, Sanxi said to Xin Wanggui: "You don't seem to care about fame and fortune, why did you ask me to save the prince?"

After hearing this, Xin Wanggui smiled bitterly and said, "I don't care about fame and fortune, but my only daughter, Xin'er. She had a marriage contract with the prince since she was a child. Now she is going to seek death for the prince, saying that if the prince can't survive, she will also die with the prince. She locked herself in the house a few days ago and had a hunger strike. You don't know that I had such a daughter only in my fifties, and her mother died of dying when she gave birth to her. I, a big man, don't know how to raise children. It just so happens that the queen likes her daughter, so she sometimes sent her to the palace for the queen to raise."

"So, did you write to me for your daughter?" Sanxi said.

"I told her that she had an aunt practicing in Wuwang Temple. I sent someone to invite her to see the prince. Maybe there was a way to coax her. Is there a way to save the prince?" Xin Wanggui asked as he looked at Sanxi.

"Brother, you have some rest today. I think you haven't had a good rest these days. I'll go to the palace to see it tomorrow. I think it's too late today and I'm tired, so I'll go back to repair my rest first." After Sanxi said that, she got up and walked out of the house.

After hearing this, Xin Wanggui quickly replied: "Okay, you go back and rest first, let's talk about it tomorrow. Here comes someone, take the third lady down to repair the rest."

When Sanxi returned to Lanyueju, it was already dark. As soon as she returned to the room, she lit the lights. She saw someone sitting next to the table. After seeing her come in, she spoke with resentment: "Why did you come back? What's your relationship with that old man?"

Sanxi saw Jiuwei sitting by the table and spoke: "Why didn't you go back to your room to rest? Didn't I ask someone to tell me if I come back late, I'll go to rest first?"

Jiuwei looked at it and didn't seem to care about Sanxi at all, and said angrily: "If you don't tell me who the old man is today, I won't leave!"

"Do you really want to know?" Sanxi looked at the stubborn Jiuwei, walked to the table and sat down and asked. Jiuwei nodded and said, "Well! But if you have anything inconvenient to say, you can not say it."

"Actually, there is nothing inconvenient to say. He is just my half-brother. When I left, I promised him that if he had any requests, he could send someone to me. This promise would be valid for life. I originally thought that he would not have anything to come to me until he died, but he sent someone to send me a letter a few days ago and asked me to do a favor, and I would fulfill my promise." Sanxi said to Jiuwei.

"Just that's it?"

"Well! I already know what you want to know, so I won't go to rest." After hearing Sanxi's words, Jiuwei changed his previous grievances and went back to his room with a comfortable look on his face.
