Chapter 282 Two Princesses
At this moment, Bai Yi realized that he was wrong, and he couldn't help laughing.

The title of "Yining" made him suddenly think of the concubine Ning in the palace.

Does it mean that as long as there is the word Ning in the name, the temperament will definitely go in the opposite direction?

"If you're in your 30s..." Bai Yi calculated in his heart, and said a little puzzled, "I don't seem to have heard of any prince with such an old daughter..."

"The situation of these two princesses is different." Zeng Jiuyan replied, "If you have to go back, the blood of the two of them is actually two generations before Jianxi and Tianqi."

Bai Yi sat up straighter, and began to listen carefully to Zeng Jiuyan's narration.

"I'm actually a bit confused about how many years ago it was. In short, a prince gave birth to two daughters. These two sisters didn't like red makeup and armed forces. After the death of their father, they pretended to be seriously ill and couldn't see the wind. They were trained in the palace every day, but in fact they secretly joined the army disguised as men's clothes, which really let them get away with it. As a result, they were in the army for four years.

"In the past four years, both of them fought bravely. One became a commander-in-chief from an ordinary soldier, and the other was incorporated into a vanguard battalion and became a general. They were very powerful. But because they refused to go to Beijing to receive rewards, they eventually caused trouble. Noticing the attention above, and the fact that they were daughters at that time was noticed by the same robe, so the two sisters had to admit their identities, and when the news reached the capital, the court was surprised that the two princesses had long since disappeared. The palace is here."

Bai Yi laughed when he heard that, "The helper in Jingli did a good job of hiding it."

Zeng Jiuyan nodded again and again, "Isn't it? Although Dazhou had a few women on the battlefield before, it was the first time in the royal family, so the inner court at that time reacted fiercely to this incident, but generally speaking, it was relatively I tend to be negative, thinking that these two people have ruined the royal family style. So all the military exploits are used to offset it, and nothing happened.

"At that time, the reign title was Ningkang. Although Emperor Ningkang could not give a public reward due to family precepts, he embedded the reign titles into the titles of the two princesses, and they were called 'Yining' and 'Yikang' respectively. Titles can be passed on from generation to generation, and only passed on to daughters."

Zeng Jiuyan paused, "This Emperor Ningkang is the fourth emperor of my Great Zhou Dynasty. It was almost after the two princesses that the women of the prince's family began to loosen their restraints. Before that, women were not allowed to go to the horse farm to learn how to ride. shot."

Bai Yi nodded, "So the two princesses in Xuanqing Temple are the descendants of the two princesses back then?"

"Yeah." Zeng Jiuyan nodded, he leaned back a little emotionally, leaning on the side of the boat with one hand, and gently shaking the wine in the glass with the other, "The two county chiefs back then knew that their descendants are now meditating on the mountain Dao, talking about etiquette and rules all day long, wishing to make everyone as abstinent as her, then they might be so angry that they can't even hold the coffin board."

Bai Yi snorted thoughtfully, but didn't answer.

The boat slowly rowed to the center of the lake, surrounded by misty waves, and the pedestrians on the lake bank and the mountains in the distance became far away.

Except for the boatman standing at the stern, there was no one else here, and the topic of the two of them unconsciously turned to the war in their home country. Zeng Jiuyan told Bai Yi about the incident of joining the army in the north and returning to the imperial court not long ago.

"A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find." Zeng Jiuyan said softly, "Don't look at the emperor's frequent beatings and scolding of civil servants, he has always cherished generals, otherwise it would be impossible to condone old general Shen and live in seclusion in the general's mansion after returning to Beijing. It's just that he has to come forward for some things now, I heard from my father that the palace is actually quite anxious, and even specially invited the old man to go to the general's mansion to give advice, but I don't know the specific effect."

"Really," Bai Yi looked at Zeng Jiuyan, "Is this old general Shen... famous?"

Zeng Jiuyan smiled and said, "You don't think so in the capital, but if you pass Ruyang Pass and enter the boundary of the four states in the north, then the three words Shenjichuan will be very loud. The troops of the three states in the north were previously in In Old General Shen's hands, if he hadn't pulled out a continuous solid line of defense, Chang Sheng would not have been able to compete with Arslan in the northernmost Jingzhou Prefecture."

"So why did General Shen return to Beijing?"

"I heard that he is ill, and the emperor granted him permission to return to Beijing to recuperate for a period of time."

Bai Yi's gaze also became serious, "What is the disease?"

"I don't know," Zeng Jiuyan shook his head, "You are in the Tai Hospital, you should know better than me? Zhang Shenxian said it was evil spirits before, and the old man with a nose saw that everyone was evil spirits, but he was thrown out of the mansion by General Shen."

Bai Yi thought about it for a while, "I haven't heard of anyone in the Tai Hospital who received a consultation from the General's Mansion... or I will look through the records when I go back."

"Hey, the old general is getting old, and he still can't retreat..." Zeng Jiuyan folded his hands behind his head. He wanted to say something more, but he held back and stopped.

Speaking of this, neither of them was in the mood to fish in the middle of the lake. Zeng Jiuyan looked back at the boatman standing at the bow, "Uncle Meng, please come to the shore!"

"Ah...are you going back now?"

"No, my friend wants to visit the medicine field in Xuanqingguan," Zeng Jiuyan replied, "Please go west."

"Yaotian," the boatman at the bow shook the oar, "Is this friend of the young master a doctor?"

"...That's right." Bai Yi replied softly.

The boat landed on the shore, and Zeng Jiuyan and Bai Yi walked together into the dense mountain forest, where the big trees covered the sky and the sun, surrounded by trees can be seen everywhere, Bai Yi walked behind Zeng Jiuyan for a long time, but there was no flat land, Seeing that he was about to go back to the original point again, Bai Yi asked tentatively, "...So, don't you know the way?"

Zeng Jiuyan crossed his hips, "The last time I came to Xuanqing Guan was when my father brought me here when I was seven or eight years old. Whoever has nothing to come here makes himself feel uncomfortable."

The two laughed together, and Bai Yi looked at the jungle covering all sides, "I guess it should be here,"

He pointed to the south, and Zeng Jiuyan looked in the direction Bai Yi pointed, and there was indeed a small road there.

"Then go."

Not long after, the two of them saw a large paddy field surrounded by driftwood.

Lianzhi in April is still only sprouting green flower buds, which looks a bit like a newly erected inward lotus leaf.

Zeng Jiuyan was stunned, "God, how do you know? Have you been here?"

"No," Bai Yi rolled up his sleeves, stepped on the big black rocks on the bank and approached slowly, he carefully supported the branches beside him, "I also heard my father casually mention it a few days ago, saying that Lian Zhi likes to be close to the water It needs water, but it is not exposed to the sun. I think the more southerly the tree is, the more lush it is. I guess they may dig a pond here to raise it."

Zeng Jiuyan suddenly realized, and approached behind Bai Yi.

Just as Bai Yi was about to reach the nearest paddy field, a vigilant female voice suddenly sounded behind the two, "Who is it?"

Zeng and Bai turned their heads at the same time, and saw a girl who looked like a maid standing on a high place, her eyebrows were raised upright, and before they could explain, she asked, "The jade rabbit of my princess just came here. , have you seen each other?"
