Chapter 66 Chapter 54 of the Hui Dynasty
Almost after dealing with the affairs of Chashan, Liu Fenghan took Zhou Rushui to walk the streets and alleys again, but this time, it was to assist Zhou Rushui to visit some local businesses. It is also because the entire Huishe County is almost the gateway of merchants, and the local merchants travel all year round, and they all have a strong friendship with Liu Fenghan. Therefore, after such a question, the news involved was almost half of the Zhou Kingdom.
At that time, Zhou Rushui finally understood that the tricky reform of Zhou Guoyan was urgent.
At this time, there was another rumor in the state of Chu, saying that the king of Chu traveled some time ago, leaving the queen Zhen Jiang on the Yingtai. The river was so big that the king of Chu sent a messenger to welcome Zhen Jiang, and the envoy was so eager that he forgot to hold the talisman. After arriving at Yingtai, the messenger asked Zhen Jiang to come out. Zhen Jiang said: "Every time the king meets with the palace people, he will show the charms. Today, you don't hold the talisman, and the concubine doesn't dare to follow. At that time, the messenger hurriedly said: "When the water rises, if I return to get the talisman, I will definitely not be able to reach the Savior." Zhen Jiang insisted: "The concubine hears that the chastity keeper does not break the covenant, and the brave one is not afraid of death, and the concubine knows that she will live from you today. So, when the messenger took the talisman and returned, Yingtai had collapsed, and Zhen Jiang was also drowned.
It is true that loyalty and trustworthiness are advocated in this era. In "The Biography of the Daughters", there was: "The tail life and the woman are under the beam (bridge), the woman does not come, the water does not go, and she hugs the beam and dies." "The road is a young man called to be the tail of the boy and the woman to meet under the bridge, the woman did not arrive, but the water rose, the tail in order not to miss the appointment, hugged the pillar and died under the bridge. As a result, there are three highs in the world, "faith is like a tail life, honesty is like Boyi, and filial piety is like a ginseng." ”
In this way, although Zhen Jiang passed away, because of her virtue that is not distinguished from that of Oji, her reputation has naturally spread all over the country. The world said that she became a king with faith, and kept herself with courtesy, although she was still glorious in death. The state of Chu sacrificed Zhen Jiang with a national funeral, and for a while, the Zhen family was glorified by the Manchus, and even the Chu women had a reputation for martyrdom. At the same time, the Xie family immediately handed an olive branch to the Zhen family and invited the Zhen family to also come to participate in the Zhou Kingdom flower viewing banquet in the coming year.
Naturally, this matter also spread to Hui She, and when he heard this, Liu Fenghan, who was staring at the outside in a daze, turned his face, and suddenly asked Zhou Rushui, who was looking at the silk book: "How about you be the Empress Chu Zhen Jiang?"
Hearing this, Zhou Rushui slowly raised her face, she blinked, and blinked again. After a while, he looked at the rain-dripping eaves outside, smiled faintly, and replied without being salty: "I don't feel lucky, I only feel sad." She didn't think that Zhen Jiang's approach was so proud. Zhen Jiang is just like her in her previous life, just a poor person who was pushed away by the times and fate.
In this era, the space left for women is always cramped, and Zhen Jiang's death, with few words and low eyebrows, is like a cramped dance that cannot be moved. It is obviously an extreme tragedy, but there are still countless people who think that Gao De is celebrating. This is not enough, there are even some people who, after a trickle of tears, secretly benefit from her death.
But why not be sad about that? But why stop there?
Thinking of this, Zhou Rushui put down the silk book, held his sleeve with his left hand, poured a cup of tea for himself, took a sip of tea, and then slowly added: "Zhen Jiang is in the back position, but he is still like duckweed, drifting with the tide, and the blessings and blessings of life and death depend on others." Until she died, she calculated how to make the family profitable and how to keep her reputation alive. In this way, who is the saddest person in the world?"
Zhen Jiang must be extremely unlucky, so he will do his best to die when he is not a dead end. It can be seen that she is either a stupid and polite fool, or a sad person who sincerely wants to die.
Of course, none of this is important, the only thing Zhou Rushui can be sure of is that Zhen Jiang doesn't love King Chu. After all, love is harder than death.
Five days have passed, and it is finally time to part.
Before parting, Liu Fenghan went to the main house of the Liu family to say goodbye as usual, but the Liu family did not come out, and only ordered the housekeeper to go out.
In front of the public, the steward actually sang directly that Liu Fenghan was not the son of the Liu family. Later, he said that the Liu family's kindness to Liu Fenghan was greater than the sky, and forced Liu Fenghan to draw a pledge on the IOU, telling him to repay the Liu family for raising him in the future.
Not only that, but also intimidated Liu Fenghan, the road is that Liu Fenghan will have someone to watch the tea all the way, and the details of the goods sold this time The Liu family has also clearly registered and made a book, if Liu Fenghan dares to make a hindrance on the road, in vain to greed it for half a line of silver, the Liu family will never let Liu Fenghan have a life to return to Huixi.
The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs, and the wind, frost, snow and sword were forced to force each other. Under such a disregard for decent coercion, the audience is embarrassed.
However, Liu Fenghan is indeed the adopted son of the Liu family. In this era, filial piety comes first. Such as the nature of father and son, brother and brother, this is a book of branches, cutting constantly. Although Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism are different, they always can't erase the words "filial piety" and "piety". is a character like Langya Wang San, if he is given a reputation for unfilial piety, it will also damage his reputation. What's more, it is Liu Fenghan, who has no power or power.
At that time, seeing that the general in charge of the matter was still in front of him, Liu Fenghan slowly raised his face. At this time, he was still unruly, but he lost his sharp teeth in the past. He didn't say anything, but slowly drew a note on the IOU, pressed the seal, and threw it back in a good time.
Not only that, but there was still a smile on his handsome face, and he smiled shallowly, quietly, and watched the steward indifferently pick up the IOU and turn around and close the gate of the Willow Mansion. Quietly watching the door that had been open to him since he was a child no longer open to him. Feel it quietly, feel the ruthlessness of the world, and feel the loneliness of life.
This loneliness is like what he felt many years ago. At that time, his mother had just passed away, and as soon as he stepped into the threshold, he couldn't stop crying. It turned out that without his mother, no one would sit in front of the door and wait for him to return home. It turned out that without his mother, his heart would no longer have a place to rest. And now, time has passed, and the door of this home, which retains all his good memories, will no longer be open for him.
He also doesn't have to go home anymore.
I don't know whether it is relieved or self-deprecating, Liu Fenghan has been smiling, he has been smiling and standing in front of the door for a long time, his back is straight, until after a while, he finally owes to the door, like all the children of the people who are going to travel far away, he kneels on the ground with his robe, and bows three times to the main door of the house.
The first bow, he nodded to the ground with his head and said slowly: "Mother, children are not filial!"
In the second bow, he nodded to the ground with his head and said hoarsely: "Mother, go to the child!"
In the third bow, he nodded to the ground with his head and said abruptly: "Mother, the birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden." The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook. From now on, the child will never have a home again!"
After speaking, he flicked his sleeves, never looked at Liufu again, and strode away.
At that moment, the noon sun was obliquely reflected on the stone road, and Liu Fenghan's slender and upright figure walked farther and farther, and it was the jade tree in the wind, full of spirit.
Even after witnessing Fang Cai's qiē, no one would really think that Liu Fenghan was a down-and-out son who was kicked out of the house. More people are only sighing, sighing that Liu Fenghan has earned this wealth for the Liu family, but the Liu family can't tolerate this young man, and he also beats him upside down, and forces each other harshly. This behavior really responded to what Liu Fenghan said at the end, "The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden." The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook. ”
At that time, Shu Ying, who was hiding in the corner, couldn't help but sigh: "This Langjun is more like a family than Fang Li of the Northern Clan. At the same time, Jiong Qi, who had always been unkind to her, couldn't help but sigh.
Huishe County Road is all bird road, chisel dangerous and secluded, surrounded by ten thousand mountains, surrounded by the surrounding lofty mountains and mountains, it is not labor-saving to go to Qizhou by land, but it is from the Xin'an River in front of the door to rush out, and it is the fastest to go down the river. This trip away from home, Liu Fenghan naturally chose the waterway.
On the second day, Zhou Rushui was still in a dream, and he felt that the bed curtain moved. She slowly opened her eyes, and saw Liu Fenghan standing condescendingly in front of her bed, and when she opened her eyes, a wicked smile appeared on his handsome face.
is so bad, so abrupt, it makes Zhou Rushui raise his eyebrows!
But before she could speak, Liu Fenghan had already said in a preemptive voice: "Like a sister-in-law, the sun is about to rise! But you still refuse to get out of the bed?" As he was talking, Su Ying had already chased into the house in a rage, and as soon as she approached, she dragged the gray linen bag on Liu Fenghan's shoulder, and shouted angrily: "You are too hateful! How can there be any evil cat that bites people? I was deceived into going out, but I entered the house by myself! Can my daughter's boudoir also trespass?" As she spoke, she tried her best to drag Liu Fenghan out, but Liu Fenghan did not move like a mountain, the smile on his young and handsome face was even stronger, staring at Zhou Rushui, whose face was unpredictable, but he casually pulled the gray burlap bag on his shoulder, turned his head and sneered: "Who called you stupid?"
Hearing this, Shu Ying was choked and speechless for a long time. On the side, Zhou Rushui was also helpless, she held her forehead, and sighed unconsciously: "I just looked at you differently yesterday, but now you are gone." ”
In this way, she didn't bother to look at the two people torn in front of her, she half-sat up with the thin quilt, and pulled down the curtain next to the bed with her own hands. The curtain fell, and she finally couldn't see the people outside clearly, so she slowly sat up straight again, and said coldly to Liu Feng: "You are too crazy, why did you break in?"
Outside the curtain, seeing that the beauty who could still see clearly disappeared in a blink of an eye, Liu Fenghan wiped his nose in disappointment. He turned around and leaned against the screen, his already beautiful eyes glanced out of the house with a rich color, and his fingers knocked on the screen one by one, so he smiled and said, "You have to blame you! Master has been waiting for a long time, but you are still greedy. ”
If this man is clever in his tongue, he will always have his fallacies. Zhou Rushui knew that he couldn't say anything, even if he could say it, it would take a lot of words, so he simply dug it under the pillow, took out the red sandalwood slingshot and tied it with marbles, and the white wrist like congealed fat hooked the bow and poked out of the tent, and snorted coldly: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you!
At first glance, seeing Zhou Rushui's reaction, Liu Fenghan was also stunned, and when she saw her pair of white, tender and plump little hands poking out of the tent, she was pulling the bow and pointing at him. I thought it was funny for a while, but I knew that she had already gritted her teeth just now, and she couldn't be funny anymore. Then he admitted defeat, and hurriedly comforted her: "Okay! I won't tease you! It's just that the white-flour steamed buns at the south gate of your road a few days ago are the sweetest, but I haven't bought them a few days ago." Today I got up early to buy some and brought them back to you while they were hot. ”
As he spoke, he really took out a few white-flour steamed buns and handed them to Shu Ying, smiled slightly, walked outside the house, and said with a smile: "But you really have to get up quickly, you have to see off the master!"
