Chapter 166: A Visitor to the World
"He came with a bowl of pigeon soup a few days ago, and said that it was stewed for me in his house. See. Wool, Chinese net"
"Pigeon soup?"
"Yes. After Ling Hougu finished speaking, he looked at Liang Yong: "However, it's okay for me to drink it, and Xiao Man also drank it, so it's fine." β
Liang Yong smiled: "Hou Ye, I'm afraid I'm too worried." Guan Xian is your own son after all, even if he has a violent temperament and is emotionally unstable, most of it is because of Duan Kun. You really think too much about killing your father like this. β
"No, you don't know. The look in his eyes when he asked me for his children's book was going to kill me!"
Liang Yong was stunned: "Master Hou, you said, could it still be related to that book?"
"Nine times out of ten. From the few times Xiao Guanxian asked me for a book, I found the face of a son I had never seen before! Speaking of this book, as for that Qiqi in your house, he once told me that he said that what was written in this book was three three and nine. β
"Nine, three, three?"
Ling Hougu nodded slightly.
"Then Hou Ye thinks that this is a child's casual remarks, or is there something in the words?" Ling Hougu looked at Liang Yong: "What do you think?"
"Old minister, old minister doesn't know. Liang Yong said and laughed: "If the old minister knows, don't you need to say it, I will tell you?"
Ling Hougu smiled helplessly: "Yes, it's all speculation." He is my son, and I won't tell you the truth when he asked me for a book, and I was really afraid that he would throw his fist at me. If that's the case, then I'm powerless to fight back. Even though I am the prince of this great Linghou City, I also have great military exploits, I also have great achievements, I have prestige, I have the respect of ten thousand people, and I also have the people in the city. At the end of the day, I'm his father. As a father, when I saw my son roaring hysterically in front of me, I just felt that I was the unarmed Li people! β
When Ling Hougu said this, his tone was very slow and his voice was very heavy. He looked out the door.
Liang Yong looked up at him, and he didn't know whether this Hou Ye was looking at the sky outside the door or the ground outside the door.
He lowered his eyes: "Yes, it is said that the king should focus on the overall situation, be the parents of the people first, and be a parent." It's just that all people have seven emotions and six desires, and they can't stop being emotional. β
Ling Hougu retracted his scattered thoughts and looked at the wine in front of him: "The king, just like the wine in this cup, it looks tasteful, and when you drink it, it is actually tasteless." As he spoke, he drank it all.
"Master Hou, it's been a while since you got this foot, or can't you?"
Ling Hougu followed Liang Yong's words and turned his gaze to the injured foot: "I can go." Two days ago, I said that I would try to walk on the ground, and it would be fine to hold on to something. But the housekeeper still said that I was too anxious, I was old, and my body and bones were useless. I tried not to pad this thing for two days, and found that my feet were very swollen. β
Liang Yong nodded: "Yes, people of our age still have to take care of their bodies and bones first." β
Ling Hougu smiled helplessly and sighed. Look at 1 yarn 3 Chinese net picked up the wine jug and poured some wine into the cup: "Take care of yourself? I'm afraid that I have more than enough heart, but not enough strength." Who doesn't want to live a chic and comfortable life? It's just that the heavens won't let it. β
Liang Yong nodded on the side.
Ling Hougu ate two bites of food, looked up and asked Liang Yong: "You say, I really don't understand these young people now." Let's take this kun, a few days ago, he was standing in this hall and told me that he couldn't accept General Dusk's daughter, because he couldn't let go of Hu Yue in his heart. It's only been a few days?"
Ling Hou Gu smiled and shook his head: "At that time, how could we have so much thought." β
I'm afraid that today's young people are all looking down on this feeling. Come fast and go fast. For example, when I saw the third young master pass away, the third young grandmother Lan Xiu, except for the pear blossoms that cried on the day of the burial, brought rain, and then she was like a person who had nothing to do, and she didn't see any sadness at all. β
Ling Hougu squinted at him: "The pear blossom brings rain, and it is also crying to everyone." However, I guess she must have hated herself very much now, why didn't she find someone to bury her alive at that time, and just leave? As a result, she is now confined in this Linghou Mansion. β
"I haven't heard of any moths coming out of her side room lately. β
"If you don't have a moth, it's not her Lan Xiu'er. It's just that as long as she is a few days late, I'll be thankful. This person, what he is most afraid of is to rush things together. β
"Master Hou, I saw in the morning, the second young master and General Xiao talked outside for a long time. β
"Say something for a long time?"
"Then the old minister doesn't know. However, looking at the expression of the second young master, he was a little nervous. β
"Nervous? What is he nervous about? I heard that he, this kun, and twilight Tianxue have apologized, and everyone has forgiven each other. Young people, the days are too light, it's normal to sprinkle a little salt. Maybe it's because I took away Duan Kun's military management rights, and he feels uncomfortable. β
"Actually, it's really just like what Master Qiao said, it's just impulsive. β
Ling Hougu suddenly laughed: "That's right! Oh, this Qiao Zhutang finally said something to go to the right point." β
The two of them laughed together.
"You say, how strange it is. My parrot, since the last time Xiao Man came to talk to me here early in the morning and got rid of one of its hairs, this guy has started to stop eating?!hahaha~ Interesting, right!"
Liang Yong followed Ling Hougu's gesture to look at the parrot on the side, and asked suspiciously, "Don't eat?"
"Hahaha~ It's not that I don't eat it, it's that I'm starting to eat meat! I don't believe it!" As he spoke, Ling Hougu picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat and handed it to the parrot's mouth. The parrot was noticeably unsettled, spread its wings, and came running for the meat!
Liang Yong smiled: "Parrots are also omnivores?"
Ling Hougu looked sideways: "Who knows? How many years has this guy been with me? I still remember when I first came to Xifan, and its grain has not yet been dried." He gave it meat, but he didn't eat it alive or dead, and would rather starve. Look, it's good now, this sight of flesh is like the mosquito seeing blood, and its eyes are round!"
"It's hard to talk about animals. β
"Yes, don't talk about animals, aren't people the same? After changing back and forth, I finally found that, in fact, everything you eat is the same thing, and it is tasteless. β
This meal with Liang Yong, just as Ling Hougu said, is like an old brother who has gone through the wind, frost, rain and snow, and helped each other to this age, talking about some current common senses together. It's just that it is much more difficult to make Hou Gu know that it is much more difficult to cut it constantly and sort out the messy chores than to sweep away the enemy.
After Liang Yong left, Ling Hou Gu watched the servant remove the wine cup in front of him, and the figure in front of him was busy, as if he was taking away the dream that was once full in his heart.
His heart was filled with emotion.
The dazzling array in front of him is just like the prosperity of the prosperous era, flowing brocade and satin, and the desertion after the Qingtai, although it cannot be said to be the end, but there is a great sense of loneliness in my heart.
When the word loneliness came back, it shocked Hou Gu himself: loneliness!
He savored this sentence in his heart, and slowly moved his gaze from the table in front of him, to the red carpet in front of him, to the outside of the door, and then to the blue sky.
The road leading to the outside of the house was empty except for the sun.
Ling Hougu squinted his eyes, life may be a lonely trip. It seems that everyone is accompanied by people, and it seems that there is a lot of traffic, but in the end, it is his own loneliness that dies without a problem.
He sighed inwardly and called out to the butler.
"Waiting. β
"I'm tired, I'm going to lie down for a while. β
"Eh!" the housekeeper helped Ling Hougu into the inner hall.
"Something came to call me. I'll take a nap. β
"Okay, Hou Ye. β
γPartial Roomγ
This Santu brought people to Liang Qing's mansion, cured Qiqi, who couldn't speak, and left in Linghou City.
The girl at Lanxiu's door helped her tidy up her things and said, "Young grandma." I heard that Sang Ye from Sangcheng next door brought a strange person to the house in the morning, and actually cured the child of Liang Qing's family who couldn't speak!"
Lan Xiu's eyes widened: "Cured?"
"That's right!" the little girl had an exaggerated expression.
Lan Xiu raised her face: "It's so amazing? I see, in Liang Qing's mansion, there were gongs and drums a few days ago, but I didn't see any effect." Why is this all of a sudden?"
"Yes, I heard that the person brought by Sang Ye pricked a few stitches in the child's body, and then he was fine. β
Lan Xiu blinked: "You said, there are really a lot of capable people in this world." β
The little girl raised her eyebrows: "Well, I think so too." Anyway, I didn't see it at the time. But, according to the rumors outside, it is miraculous. β
Lan Xiu rolled her eyes and didn't speak.
γTwilight Snow Mansionγ
Back at home, Twilight and Xiao Man are still excited about Kiki's recovery.
"Kiki, it's amazing!
"yes, so do I. Xiao Man turned his head to look at the happy Twilight Snow on the side: "However, I heard Liang Qing come back from my father's palace and say that Qiqi will stay for a few more days and will be sent away." β
Twilight nodded lightly, her eyes a little wooden, "I heard it too." β
Her tone was a little small and tinged with sadness. These days with Kiki, especially after his illness, this child has an inseparable connection and implication with Twilight Tianxue and Xiao Man. When it comes to leaving, both of them are naturally not in a good mood.
Twilight lowered her head: "Let's go." Fortunately, now that he has left the house, he is already a healthy child again. β
Xiao Man nodded: "Yes! How do you say that? After all, he is a passer-by in the world." β
The two of them were silent for a while, and Xiao Man suddenly looked up at Linglan who was standing aside: "I haven't had time to ask you, how are you Linglan, are you better?"
Linglan was stunned for a moment, and rolled her eyes: "Okay, much better, Miss." Don't worry about me. β
"What did you do all the time? Don't mention it when I look back at you! It all startles me and makes me red!"
Linglan lowered her head: "I am, I just watched that person put a needle on Qiqi's body, and I was a little nervous." β
"You're sick?"
Yu Zhu said on the side: "Faint needle? I see, she is dizzy for everything." β
Linglan raised her head and glanced at Yuzhu, didn't say anything, and lowered her head again.
Xiao Man smiled faintly: "Eighty percent, it's really dizzy for everything." You said that you are strong enough Linglan, such a good opportunity there, let people show you directly, you have to listen!" Xiao Man said as he pretended to be angry and gave her a blank look.
Twilight Tianxue raised her head and took Linglan's hand: "Yes, why are you so tough?
Linglan shook her head: "I'm afraid. So, I still don't watch it. β
Xiao Man pouted: "Bang bang! I can't beat you! I just realize now that the people around me are more correct than the other! I am the most stupid!"
