Chapter Fifty-Seven: Degrading Tongguan
"Ruyan, Ruyan wakes up......"
Yu Ruyan was groggy and seemed to hear Tang Yunluo calling herself. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Yu Ruyan had a splitting headache, struggled to open her eyes, and saw the shadows of two people in a blur.
"Ruyan, are you awake?"
This voice is not Tang Yunluo, it seems to be Xiao Feiqing.
"Yu Ruyan, you really don't want to kill you!" Yang Chuting said, "Does the emperor know how angry you are about going out of Beijing without permission?" ”
"You have been humiliated at the gate of the Tang Mansion, you are really ......" Xiao Feiqing said halfway, and the rest of the words could not be continued.
Yu Ruyan pressed her throat and asked, "Where am I?" ”
"You're in the University Scholar's Mansion." Yang Chuting said.
Yu Ruyan turned her head and whispered, "You go out, I want to be alone for a while." ”
Xiao Feiqing and Yang Chuting glanced at each other, made a color to each other, and turned around and went out.
"Take good care of your scholars, heat up the medicine in a while, and send it to her." Xiao Feiqing instructed, "Tell her to eat well." ”
Yu Ruyan barely drank the medicine and fell asleep for a day before going to the ground.
As soon as my feet touched the ground, I felt that my knees were weak and I couldn't support them and fell to the edge of the bed. Yu Ruyan rolled up her pants and looked, her knees were wrapped in gauze, and she could vaguely see that the edges were swollen and purple.
Yu Ruyan insisted on putting on her clothes and going out, the scenery of the university scholar's mansion was still the same, and things were not people.
In the gazebo, the hibiscus flowers have bloomed, and they are dazzling.
"When the hibiscus blooms, we will still be like this, how about you play and sing with me?"
The clouds have fallen, and now that the hibiscus flowers have bloomed, where are you?
If you don't fall asick in your life, you will be lovesick, and you will be lovesick.
Yu Ruyan smiled bitterly, my lovesickness is separated by the two worlds of yin and yang. A Huangquan Road, a Nai He Bridge, I can't see you, and you can't touch me. The rolling waters of the Lechuan River can't drown out my thoughts about you.
Yunluo, will you drink the Meng Po soup that night, forget me, and there will be only a strange road left from now on?
In the past two days, the subordinates in the university scholar's mansion have said that Yu Ruyan may be crazy. One moment staring at one place in a daze, the next moment suddenly crying, crying and crying and suddenly laughing.
"Someone's coming." Yu Ruyan sat in the courtyard and shouted.
"Scholar, you command."
Yu Ruyan said lightly: "Go buy some white candles, fruits, and take a mourning dress, today is the seventh day of Yunluo, I want to pay tribute to him." ”
"Yes."
The incense table is placed in the pavilion, the white candles are lit, the incense burner is placed in the middle, and the osmanthus cake, hibiscus cake, and small fragrant pear that Tang Yunluo likes to eat are placed on the table. Yu Ruyan, dressed in white, stood in the pavilion, and lit three sticks of incense with trembling hands.
All the sorrows in the world are nothing more than death and life.
"Husband, the concubine is incompetent, and it affects the husband." Yu Ruyan rolled down tears, "I wish to have one heart, and my head will not be separated." Husband, I will guard you until my gray hair grows. What I owe you in this life, I will repay you in the next life. ”
A glass of sake was spilled, and Yu Ruyan's tears were spilled. These days, Yu Ruyan doesn't know how many tears she has shed. Perhaps, it has already run dry.
Yu Ruyan touched the bracelet on her wrist - Tang Yunluo gave her the gift, and choked up: "Death and life are broad, talk to Zicheng." Hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son. The clouds fall, and we are afraid that we will not be able to grow old together in this life. ”
Weeping followed by blood, and the heart was destroyed silently.
"Poor two white birds, both of them are dusty." Yu Ruyan muttered, "One step at a time, a thousand miles are still waiting for you." Happy new acquaintance, sad and parting in the next life. With this 100-year life, a total of inch by inch. For example, empty mountains and grass, scattered hearts know themselves. ”
The subordinates whispered: "I see that the scholar misses Tang Gongzi, but I'm afraid I'm going crazy." ”
"I also think it's really pitiful."
Five miles and one return, six miles and one wandering. It's a pity that in this life, we can no longer be with us.
"Ru'er, believe me, I will never leave you. Even if I leave temporarily, please wait for me. I will definitely come back and be there for you. ”
Yunluo, you promised me, I believe in you so much, but you still broke your promise.
Yu Ruyan sat in front of the piano in the pavilion, stroked the strings and said with a wry smile: "Yunluo, you once said that "Pheasant Chaofei" is too sad, but how similar am I to the herding calf in "Pheasant Chaofei"? He has no wife and I have lost my husband, and now I will play it for you, okay? ”
Yu Ruyan's fingers gently fluctuated the strings, and the sadness of "Pheasant Flying Towards Heaven" echoed in the night sky for a long time.
"When Mai Long is green in March, the white pheasant flies towards the two females. The brocade clothes and wings are gone, and the sorrow of the calves and herdsmen. Spring and, warm days. The courage to peck food and drink the spring is full, and the neck is broken in the fight to the death. "Pheasant Spot" plays the orchestra urgently, and pours in the jade bowl of wine. Withered poplars and withered poplars are born, and I am alone and seventy and alone. Playing the strings and writing hatred is endless, and the eyes return to the yellow mud. Yu Ruyan burst into tears and read it heartbreakingly.
At noon the next day, a rapid knock on the door woke Yu Ruyan up.
Yu Ruyan didn't have time to freshen up, she went out in white clothes to see, and Xiao Muzi walked into the courtyard with a bright yellow holy decree in her hand.
"Yu Ruyan takes the order."
Yu Ruyan sighed lightly, knelt on the ground and said, "The people's daughter takes the order." ”
Xiao Muzi read aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, the criminal minister Yu Ruyan did not respect my life, fled from Beijing privately, and was deeply gracious. Now the jade Ruyan is demoted to the nine-grade book, and the Tongguan is distributed, and this is admired. ”
"Minister's order, thank you, Lord Longen."
Xiao Muzi stepped forward, handed the holy decree to Yu Ruyan's hand, and sighed: "Lord Yu, why are you suffering? This morning, the emperor's thunderous anger will punish you heavily. Lord Xiao gave up his official position to protect you, and Lord Yang and Lord Chu almost gave up their lives. ”
"Thank you for your kindness, it's just that my heart is dead, and it's the same everywhere." Yu Ruyan said lightly.
Xiao Feiqing's voice came from outside the door: "Do you think it's the same?" ”
Xiao Muzi turned around and saw Xiao Feiqing standing outside the door with a sad face, thinking that he had saluted.
Xiao Feiqing walked in slowly and sighed: "Yu Ruyan, what do you want me to do with you?" ”
Yu Ruyan lowered her head and did not look at him.
Xiao Feiqing choked up and said, "Do you know what happened in the court today?" In order to protect you, a few of us almost quarreled with the emperor......"
"You don't have to protect me, I don't want to stay here at all." Yu Ruyan said coldly.
Xiao Feiqing was angry and said angrily: "Yu Ruyan, you really don't know the hearts of good people!" ”
Xiao Muzi on the side was also a little dumbfounded, and interjected: "Lord Yu, don't say that." In the early dynasties, Lord Xiao was willing to remove his official position to protect you as the queen of the two dynasties, and Lord Yang and Lord Chu didn't even care about their lives. ”
Yu Ruyan snorted, smiled bitterly, looked at Xiao Feiqing and said, "Is the result useful, Lord Xiao?" Our emperor has always been ruthless, the more you protect me, the more the emperor hates me, and maybe it will affect you, so why bother? General Yang is the third generation of Zhongliang, you are the second dynasty Zaifu, there is no need to give up your good future for me. ”
Xiao Feiqing was so angry that her eyebrows were upside down, she glared at Yu Ruyan, and said angrily: "That's it, just let me waste my efforts!" ”
After speaking, Xiao Feiqing flicked his sleeves and left, and Xiao Muzi also sighed and returned to the palace.
How is the capital, what is Tongguan, where there is no Tang Yunluo, everywhere is the same. Where there is Tang Yunluo, it is the same everywhere. It's just that these two states of mind are completely different.
The university scholar's mansion is also about to be dispersed, Yu Ruyan was demoted, and the people who were originally serving around her received Yu Ruyan's severance pay and made a living on their own. Xiao Feiqing, Yang Chuting and others accepted most of the people into the mansion.
"Scholar, we can't bear you."
"Yes, the emperor is really ruthless, he killed Lord Xiao, and he wants to demote you to such a far place."
"Scholar, after Tang Gongzi left, your body has been weak, you have to be careful along the way!"
Yu Ruyan smiled lightly: "Thank you, there is no banquet in the world, I am going to Tongguan now, and I can't take care of you." But fortunately, Lord Xiao and Lord Yang are also good places to go. ”
"University scholar ......" was crying in the house.
Yu Ruyan smiled and said, "You don't want to be like this, so how can I go on the road with peace of mind?" Everyone's gone, I'm leaving tomorrow. ”
"Scholar, we...... We will do the last day's work for you today, and you can go to Tongguan tomorrow with peace of mind. ”
"yes, yes, we'll make you one last meal."
Faced with everyone's hospitality, Yu Ruyan had no choice but to accept: "It's okay, we will get together for the last time tonight, and we will be at peace tomorrow." ”
"Scholar, take care of yourself!"
"If you have the chance, remember to come back and see us!"
In the evening, the cooks made a sumptuous meal, and the people of the whole house ate at the same table with Yu Ruyan, saying cherished each other.
The next day, Yu Ruyan saw them off, took her own baggage, and prepared to go on the road.
Outside the city, several familiar figures were standing there.
