He rolled his eyes to see that there was no one around, and then lowered his voice and continued: "Father once believed in him, and also asked him to secretly transfer the treasury money of the user department to our Lu family, although it has been returned, but the child can't help but worry...... Coupled with how many things have been done over the years, there will always be a few ulterior motives...... If he leaks the secret and says something that is not good for the Lu family...... Father must take precautions and cut down the grass and eradicate the roots!"

Lu Yuanzhi's steady steps stopped abruptly, his face was cold and hard, he was silent for a while, and if he thought about it, he said ruthlessly: "This Gu Qingxuan still can't stay!"

"Yes...... Didn't his father have no intention of harming him? Why did he change his mind because of this?" Lu Yuanze asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before Lu Yuanzhi could speak, Lu Yuancheng said sarcastically: "There is a handle that is pinched by him, if you don't move him, is it difficult to wait for him to stir up trouble with this? Eh, big brother, why do I think you are a little partial to the Gu family, and you are reluctant to use this father-in-law? Heh, have you forgotten that you are going to marry the county lord, don't be crooked!"

The two brothers argued again, attacking each other with cold words, Lu Yuanzhi was upset when he heard it, and walked away with his sleeves in his sleeves before they gave up.

The three of them each took the carriage back to the house, Lu Yuanzhi got off in front of the mansion first, and the two sons followed each other, he suddenly felt a cold forehead, looked up, the sky was cloudy and indifferent, the cold wind rose again, and the snow flew down.

"It's snowing. Lu Yuancheng looked up and said with a hearty smile.

Lu Yuanze sighed: "The first snow of spring is still coming. ”

Lu Yuanzhi was speechless, turned around and entered the house.

In the evening, Gu Qingxuan returned home from the household department in the snow, walked into the main hall tearoom, and smelled the fragrance of tea, which was his favorite Mingqian fragrant tea. He loves tea, Shen Lanxi is good at tea art, she will make a pot for him every day, and when he returns home from the official office, the water temperature is just right, and the tea is fragrant. At this time, as soon as he smelled the fragrance of tea, he immediately woke up and blurted out to the maid, "Where is Madame?"

The maid was ignorant and replied, "My lord...... Madame and eldest lady went out of the house, and they only left this morning, and the adults forgot?"

Suddenly, he poured himself tea and wondered: "What about this ......tea?"

The maid smiled and replied, "Oh, this tea is made by Miss Xiange." Miss Xian Ge heard that the lady and the eldest lady had gone to Luoyang, so she came to the house to say hello, and now she is enjoying the snow under the backyard porch with the eldest son. ”

Gu Qingxuan was slightly disappointed and nodded: "Well, it turned out to be a string song......

At this time, the snow fell all over the mountain and stone trees, and the candlelight reflected a little fluorescence, and Jiang Xiange and Gu Qinghuan stood side by side under the corridor. As soon as she came today, Gu Qinghuan couldn't wait to hide herself, but she was open-minded, broke his embarrassment with one word, and was kind and enlightening, reasonable and considerate, so Gu Qinghuan found his claim again, and he was even more heartbroken for this confidant.

She has been here for more than an hour, although she has been talking to Gu Qinghuan, and the waves in her eyes are thrown to the main house in front of her from time to time, seeing that the lights and candles in the house are on, her face has changed slightly, and she said softly: "Uncle Gu...... Came back......"

Gu Qinghuan nodded: "Yes......" He was about to lead the string song to see Gu Qingxuan, but when he saw the housekeeper coming, he said to him: "Childe, the lord has returned home, but the adult is unwell today and will go into the bedroom to rest, and tell the old servant to tell the son to entertain Miss Xiange, and it will snow heavily tonight, so he should personally send the lady back to Jiangyue Tower." ”

"Okay, I see, that's as it should be. He said.

Jiang Xiange was dumbfounded for a moment, and then said goodbye, and did not let Gu Qinghuan send him off, and found a reason for him to go into the study to write poems, she put on a cloak and felt hat by herself, and went away in the snow, but she did not go out of the house directly, saw that there was no one around, changed direction at the corner of the corridor and walked straight to the door of the main house, and pushed the door and sneaked into the room without buttoning the door......

When it was warm and cold, the cold of spring fell suddenly, the heavy snow closed the city, overnight, Chang'an was covered in silver, so the weather was the most difficult to travel, ordinary people were at home late to avoid the cold, and the poor officials still got up early to rush to the court, and walked in the snow.

The emperors of the Great Qi dynasties, whether virtuous or foolish, can be diligent kings, unless there is a big festival or a big war, the non-resting period of the dynasty will never be delayed. Every day before the dawn, the officials have arrived outside the east gate of the palace, according to the rules of the palace gate is not allowed to carry a sedan chair, even if the country is rushing to the court, you have to walk to the Ming Hall. At this time, the sky is often not bright, but in order to eliminate the fire, there is no light and candle on the palace gate and palace road, so the hundred officials often "touch the dark" to hurry, or "borrow light to catch the court".

According to the rules, officials of the second rank and above and the royal family have special treatment; when they rush to the court, after entering the inner gate of the palace, there will be a special eunuch who will hold the lamp for them, and other officials can wait for the arrival of this "light" faction, follow them, and walk by the light. However, in order to prevent officials from forming a party, there is also a rule for this "borrowing light", that is, officials in the same ministry can only borrow the light of the minister of the ministry, and the left and right divisions either go alone or walk with Xiangguo.

On this snowy day, the sky and the earth are dark, and the front of the palace gate is even more lively.

As soon as Gu Qingxuan's carriage arrived, the officials of the household department who had been waiting in the snow for a long time did not rush forward, and there was obviously a barrier. After he got out of the car, he went directly to the east gate of the palace, followed by the subordinate officials of the household department, and compared with the other ministries, this passer-by was particularly silent.

There were no lights on the palace road separated from the east gate and the inner gate, they marched along the palace wall, the realization was unknown, it was inevitable that there would be stumbling, from time to time someone slipped and fell, even Gu Qingxuan accidentally stepped into the cold snow water, his boots were soaked, and his cloak was stained.

He was getting up, distraught, "It's really unlucky!

Gu Qingxuan looked back at Wei Kun, the waiter behind him, with a cold face, and said: "I have spare official boots in the carriage, I have to go and change them, you wait to enter the court with the lights first, you don't need to wait for me, the court meeting can't be late! Wei Shilang, you can lead them to continue to move forward." ”

Wei Kun seemed impatient, and muttered, "That's okay, it's really a mistake!"

Gu Qingxuan didn't care about him, and turned back and walked to the palace gate alone, this time there was no light, but he didn't lose a step.

When he arrived at the inner door, the eunuch Si Ming asked which person it was, Wei Kun was afraid that the eunuch would have a complaint, so he reported directly to the household department, and then calmly led everyone to follow the lamp.

After walking a long way, the people of the household department walked to the Muen Bridge on the side of the temple, this is a small bridge across the royal river, there is no bridge railing, the bridge deck arch is round and flat, at this time it is difficult to walk in the ice, and it is inevitable that everyone will be crowded when crossing the bridge.

The cold wind blew, the eunuch Siming did not protect the lantern, the candlelight flickered, at this time everyone on the bridge suddenly heard an exclamation, and the sound of falling water, everyone was in an uproar, and the candlelight continued, they crossed the bridge, checked together, and found that Wei Kun was gone, the eunuch hurriedly opened the way to fish people, but the river was deep, and no one dared to go down to fish, and the person who fell into the water was silent after a few puffs, and when the fish came up, the person was dead.
