Chapter 271: First Love
The next day, the news spread throughout the capital, and Sun Hong, the unscrupulous prince of the Dingguo Mansion who had just changed his mind, caused trouble again.
It was not good to stay at home in the heavy snow, so he ran to Su Cheng's apprentice's house to make trouble, causing the old Dingguo Gong to run to Su Cheng early in the morning to apologize, which made the poisonous tongue stop.
But Su Cheng doesn't pursue it, but it doesn't mean that others don't pursue it.
What does Goshi do? If they don't even care about such things, then are they holding them as decorations? immediately went to the emperor.
As a public official, or a general in the Yulin Army, the person who should abide by the law the most should do such a thing, this is too unusual!
Needless to say, the emperor immediately suspended him for reflection. Originally, he was going to be dealt with by military law and beaten, but I heard that he suffered a very severe wind chill and couldn't get up at all.
Duke Dingguo didn't have the face to plead with his grandson, but Princess Changguo stood up and spoke, "Although the crime is unforgivable, the law is nothing more than human affection." Gongsun Hong was originally a powerful general, if it was broken like this, it would be a loss to the imperial court, so it was better to write down his mistakes first, and let him make meritorious contributions in the future. β
It makes sense. The emperor got off the donkey down the slope and said that he had written down the account.
After waiting for the court, Princess Changguo immediately found Dingguo Gong and asked what was going on. What did he do when he ran to Su Cheng's house?
Dingguo Gong is also in his sixties, and he really has no face to say such a thing, "In short, the bastard is not angry, the old man's family is unfortunate, and he is really ashamed to say it, the princess should ask others." β
When Princess Changguo returned to the palace, Lu Ying, who was summoned to come to offer food again, told her with a smile. "If you want to say that General Gongsun is also very wronged, I don't know what he had to do with the Zhu sister, so he actually poked it out. In fact, what is there to pursue this kind of thing? β
Gao Xiuru's heart sank, and she turned around and summoned people to ask carefully, saying that Gongsun Hong had drunk too much, and he ran to pester other little girls at night, and was driven out by splashing water. Fortunately, Su Cheng was still kind, and sent him back to the house, otherwise it would be such a cold day. Won't you freeze half your life?
Gao Xiuru didn't know what to say. I can't help but have four words in my head - flirting and scolding. It's just that he was accidentally bumped into by Su Cheng, so he made such a fuss.
However, Xiaohong is not such a person!
Even if they are destined to have no part, they can be ordinary friends. Zhilu said that he was sick. It's always okay to visit, right? Gao Xiuru, who had done a good job of psychological construction for herself, went to the Dingguo Mansion in person. I'm going to ask what happened. But Gongsun Hong refused to see her at all, only said that he had a headache and wanted to sleep, but he didn't even let her take half a step at the courtyard gate.
I can't tell what the sad and lost mood is in my heart. Gao Xiuru, who left the Dingguo Mansion, even forgot that he had made an appointment with a horse to accompany him to Xiaodu Wine Shop to buy some good wine.
Hearing the whereabouts of the princess, Wei Yinian lowered his eyes gloomily, and then went to Xiaodu Wine Shop alone. The 1,000 catties of wine ordered here last time, the brothers all said that it was good, and he wanted to buy more and keep it for the New Year's home.
Due to the slippery road in the snow, the carriage walked very slowly, and when it was about to reach the Xiaodu Wine Workshop, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure in the corner of his eye, and passed by quickly.
What is this?
Although Wei Yinian's carriage has a low-key appearance, the materials used inside are first-class, and the curtain is woven with special techniques, so that you can't see anything inside from the outside, but it is very clear from the inside.
I saw a girl of fifteen or sixteen sitting on a plow, directing a big dog with snow-white hair to pull her and gallop through the snow.
Wei Yinian unconsciously became interested, looked at it twice, and saw that the girl's whole body was tightly wrapped, revealing a pair of big black and smart eyes, pulling the reins on the one hand, and cheering up the big dog on the other, "Wangcai, come on, it's coming soon, it's time to give you something to eat!" β
The big dog had obviously never done such physical work, and was so tired that he was snorting and panting, but under the encouragement of his master, he still whined and roared and rushed to the finish line.
The girl quickly staggered with Wei Yinian, leaving only a string of laughter like silver bells, and the corners of people's mouths couldn't help but turn up.
The snow was fluttering, and my thoughts couldn't stop going back to many years ago, when I first met Gao Xiuru.
She was of that age, perhaps even younger than the girl, and rode down the hillside on a tall horse.
At that time, Wei Yinian's father was still there, and he pointed to his son with a smile, "Look, that's the daughter of the owner of Ningyun Village in the east, your future wife." Wait until you become a relative in the future, you have to treat her well, the master of the high village is the father's brother, just such a baby girl, if you treat her badly, annoy your father-in-law, people come to the door, don't blame the father for not helping you. β
At that time, Wei Yinian's face turned red, and he ate Ai Ai's response, and then peeked at the bright girl, and his heart was full of joy.
It's a pity that the flames of war in the troubled times soon burned to them, the grass robbers who occupied the mountains as kings. Seeing one cottage after another being swallowed up by different armies, eliminated, and annexed, no one knows where to go.
Then, in another scuffle, Ning Yunzhai inadvertently helped Gao Xian's team, and Gao Xiuru also saved Gao Xian's life. But her father was unfortunately killed in battle.
At that time, no one knew that this person would be the true son of heaven in the future, but out of an instinctive cordiality and good feeling, Gao Xiuru decided to lead Ning Yunzhai to join his team.
But the people of Weijiabao disagreed, at that time, the owner of Weilao Fort was dead, and the young Wei Yinian couldn't suppress those uncles who relied on the old and sold the old. He had no choice but to come out with his own people, change his name and surname, and devote himself to Gao Xiuru's command.
In such a troubled world, it is not easy to survive, what kind of pro is it to become? Wei Yinian just wanted to silently guard that girl and give an explanation to his father and father-in-law in the sky.
Although they met once when they were children, Gao Xiuru obviously didn't recognize him, so the two slowly became superiors and subordinates, and became good brothers who talked about everything.
Gao Xiuru has the ability to lead the army and govern the army, and she is very bold in her decision, but sometimes she is inevitably too bold, and taking too much risk often means bringing danger to herself. Wei Yi is calm by nature and thoughtful. It just happens to make up for her, so some people in the army often joke that they are a natural pair.
But Wei Yinian listened to it and felt heartache every time, because at that time, Gongsun Hong appeared.
Although this young man was five or six years younger than Xiuru, Wei Yinian still saw that Gao Xiuru looked at him with such unusual feelings.
Maybe they are a natural pair, Wei Yinian hid his heart deeply and silently watched over his fiancΓ©e. He had already decided to wait until the day they got married. It was the day I left.
But. The world is unpredictable, and no one expected that in that battle that should have been easy, there was a sharpshooter with no arrows. almost killed Gao Xiuru.
Wei Yinian pounced on her and blocked the arrow for her. He thought he was going to die. After all, even the most trusted military doctor looked at him and shed tears.
He felt that a dead man should be able to tell the truth, so he grabbed Gao Xiuru's hand and took out the token he had been carrying with him. It was a silver footbell brought by a child. The congratulatory gift given by the Wei family when Gao Xiuru was full moon was also a token of their doll parents.
"I ...... It's called Wei Yinian. This one...... Give it back to you. In the future, you have to take care of your ......."
After saying this sentence with almost all his strength, Wei Yinian fainted, he thought he was dead, but he woke up again half a month later.
Gao Xiuru didn't know where to find a very powerful doctor and saved him.
Then she told him, "I'll marry you." β
Not "to", but "will".
Hearing a hint of tragedy in that voice, Wei Yinian couldn't bear it and couldn't afford to have such a marriage, but his objection was ineffective, because Gao Xiuru, who was decisive, had already asked Gao Xian to be their master of the marriage.
And Gongsun Hong, however, was transferred to another front line under pretext.
Then they went their separate ways.
But Wei Yinian knew that his wife had never forgotten that person.
He can understand, really, that first love is particularly precious and unforgettable for everyone. Just like him, he never forgot the beautiful laughter he heard when he saw Xiuru for the first time.
"Pony, it's here." The servant's gentle reminder interrupted Wei Yinian's thoughts.
came back to his senses all of a sudden, and Wei Yinian got out of the car.
Xiaodu Wine Shop is in a deep alley, simple and old little door, even a little dilapidated because of the age, I really can't see the inside, but when the refreshing aroma of wine comes with the wind and snow, it suddenly makes people's appetite move, and they can't help but raise their feet and go inside.
A young man came out to greet him, "Is the guest officer going to drink?" How many pounds? β
Wei Yinian smiled, "I still need a thousand catties." β
The young man was startled and looked him up and down, "You are the guest officer who called the military master to order wine last time?" β
Wei Yinian hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid, I also brought a silver ticket this time, and I know that you are busy this year, and a few percent will also make it." β
The young man shook his head, "Then I can't be the master, please wait, I'll call a steward to come." β
After a while, I saw a girl hurrying over, "Which guest is asking for wine?" β
Looking at the big white dog following her, as well as the pair of inky black and beautiful Danfeng eyes, Wei Yinian was surprised and delighted, it turned out to be her?
"I didn't expect to meet again, we are really fateful. Didn't you hear that you own a restaurant? Why did you open a sake brewery again? β
Nianfu also recognized him, wrinkled his little nose and smiled playfully, "I'm not the boss here, I'm half an apprentice." But Master Pony, it's too much for you to ask for a thousand catties. But if you can buy me these wines, I'll be able to give you a copy for a fee. It's not as good as the original brew in our brewery, but it's also very palatable. β
Looking at her big eyes with pearlescent scorching flashes, Wei Yinian knew that there must be something greasy in this. But he didn't want to poke at this little trick. Thinking about how much she wants, ordinary wine shops really can't do it, if she has a way, then why don't she take advantage of this small advantage?
Besides, this sister is not greedy, and after the whole calculation, Wei Yinian actually can't spend a lot of silver, so he readily agreed, "Okay." However, I have one more small request. (To be continued......)
