Chapter 39: Phoenix Mountain
Outside the door of the study, Tang Guxi leaned against the door, and next to him stood Yuming, who was confused and ignorant, and after seeing that the young lady signaled that she was not allowed to speak, she dispelled the idea of asking her. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 After standing still for a while, Tang Guxi got up from the door, his eyes were a little dull, his expression was also a little solemn, and he stood there silent.
"Miss?" Yu Ming exclaimed softly.
"Huh?" Tang Guxi raised his head in a trance, stared at Yu Ming, and then said, "Follow me back." ”
After returning to the room, she slammed the door shut, turned to Yuming and said, "Tomorrow night, you go out with me." ”
"Where to go?"
"Dongping River Ferry."
"Miss, you're going to ......"
"Don't ask, just follow me tomorrow." Tang Guxi said with a frown, his eyes resolute.
Yu Ming stared at the young lady for a moment, although her expression was solemn, her tone was firm: "Okay." ”
The next day, Gongsun Rong appeared in front of the Tang Mansion with two purple jade horses in his hands, dressed in a sassy riding costume, with a handsome and hearty face, and a warm smile on his face that has never been erased. As Tang Yuanwai expected, he really visited here again within five days, and even this time he didn't even come out for three days.
"You mean, Gongsun Rong is here?" Tangguxi was almost shot up.
"Yes, he's at the door right now." Yuming had just returned from the front yard to report the news to her, and she was so tired and out of breath that she couldn't even stand steadily.
"You drink saliva, don't ......worry about it first," he said, Tang Guxi hurriedly poured a bowl of tea on the table, handed it to Yu Ming, and urged, "Tell me carefully, what is he doing?" ”
He called names...... Ask Miss you to go horseback riding in the mountains. He also said that he would not tell the old lady and that he would order the guards not to make a noise. ”
"You want me to go horseback riding in the mountains?" Tang Guxi was stunned for a moment, his face full of suspicion, "Don't tell the old lady yet?" Why? ”
Yu Ming put down the cup, wiped the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, and smiled lightly: "Miss won't even be able to see this?" ”
Tang Guxi glared at her angrily, turned around and sat on the stool, and sat for a long time before saying, "I thought there would be no intersection after yesterday's separation, but I didn't expect him to come today...... According to yesterday's posture, Daddy must be towards him, and he likes him very much, if I go out with him, wouldn't it be in line with Daddy's wishes? ”
"Complying with the master's wishes, is there anything wrong?" Yu Ming's smart eyes turned with a smile and tilted her head and said.
Tang Guxi glanced at her, his eyes were full of anger and coldness, and he said coldly: "Dad wants to attach to the Gongsun family, don't you know?" Gongsun Rong came to this noise again today, even if he didn't tell his father, they would know, so that his father would be even more proud, and he didn't know what arrangements he would make then. ”
After a pause, she added, "Are you ...... Have you forgotten Brother Bingfeng? He didn't treat you badly before! ”
"But, miss, it was you who said such heartless words to Chen Gongzi personally, and now you can redeem ......"
"Who said I'm going to redeem it?" Tang Guxi immediately retorted, there was lingering arrogance and stubbornness in her eyes, and the blood flowing in her body didn't seem to allow her to show weakness to anyone a little, even if she fell to the point of breaking her head and bleeding to pieces, the oath she had made was unshakable.
It's just that now, she wants to go to Zou Mansion to have a look. Although the master had promised her father half a year ago that she would no longer teach her, she could always rely on this reason to see Brother Bingfeng again! It's just that...... I just said that the day before yesterday, and I made a gaffe in front of him, so I have to wait for ten days and a half months to go, which makes sense......
In the mirror of the cubicle, the shadow reflected her slightly frowning face. Tang Guxi sat there for a while, thinking that it would not be good to hang Gongsun Rong at the door like this, if her father really knew, she would inevitably be scolded again. After thinking about it, she still packed her bags and left the Tang Mansion alone.
Huangshan is the only mountain in Linqing City, in fact, its name was not "Huangshan" before, but a completely barren mountain, the mountain was overgrown with wild grass, desolate, and later Sheng Ge changed its name to a king who was the shortest in the world. Legend has it that the king's concubine used to come here with him, and the concubine loved this mountain so much that she ordered trees and flowers to be planted on this mountain. But the good times didn't last long, and before the mountain was rich and nourished, the beautiful woman died.
The king's liver and intestines were broken, heartbroken, and this mountain was named after the milk name of the concubine, and since then it has been called - Phoenix Mountain.
Over the past 100 years, this mountain has long been full of greenery, abundant water and grass, and has been completely "transformed", and since then, Huangshan has become a royal mountain for the royal family to play and hunt here.
After listening to the story about the origin of the name of Huangshan, the two have ridden to the foot of the mountain. Tang Guxi wore a narrow-sleeved water-red thin coat inside, and a blue cloak on the outside, which was dazzling in this piece of greenery. She looked up and stared at the green mountains, as if she had seen the barrenness and enchantment of this place many years ago. Now the beauty is full of mountains, but unfortunately the beauty no longer exists.
"The reason why the king reigned for the shortest time was because of lovesickness...... He died young, right? ”
Gongsun Rong sat on the horse, turned his head to look at her, his eyebrows curled, and said with a smile: "Since ancient times, there have been many disasters and disasters, and emperors are mostly pitiful. ”
With that, he raised the reins in his hand and looked ahead, and the horse under his seat immediately raised his front hooves and walked forward.
Tang Guxi smiled, and also chased after him, and shouted before he could follow: "What you said is not right, the original sentence is 'Since ancient times, there have been many disasters and waters, and there have been many lives for generations'!" ”
"I can't change it?" Gongsun Rong replied in front of him.
"But it's not right to put this here, although the king died early, he didn't ruin the government because of the beauty, this is originally a fallacy, and it's unfair to the beauties in the world!" After that, she had caught up with Gongsun Rong's horse, and both of them slowed down, rode and drove, walking in this mountain.
"Wait for one day, you will come to seek justice for the beauties of the world, but I believe that there will be this day......"
Tang Guxi smiled softly, raised his head and suddenly saw two soldiers guarding the mountain road in front of him, so he hurriedly asked: "You said that this is the royal mountain, so there are still guards guarding it now?" It's also surprising. So how can we get in? ”
"Since I have called you, there is a way."
As he spoke, Gongsun Rong took out the token from his waist, walked in front of the guard, raised the token in his hand and said, "I came with Princess Jiang Yue yesterday, you should still have an impression." This is the sign given to me by the princess, please see it. ”
The two guards glanced at the sign, then at him, then knelt on one knee and saluted, "Gongsun Gongzi!" ”
Gongsun Rong nodded lightly and put away the token, "Open the door." ”
The guard hurriedly got up, opened the gate at the intersection, and invited the two to enter.
"You came here yesterday for a horseback ride with the princess?" Tang Guxi asked, seeing that he didn't speak, he raised his eyebrows and said, "If the princess knows that you are here with me again today...... I guess I'm going to be unhappy. ”
"The princess won't know about ......"
After a pause, Tang Guxi took a deep breath and asked, "I see that Princess Jiang Yue has a deep heart for her son, and she has a deep affection, I don't know why her son is indifferent?" Don't...... Childe wants to make Hongyan a pitiful person? ”
Gongsun Rong didn't look at her, nor did he look at the beautiful scenery in the mountains, but kept his head slightly down, staring at the grass in front of the horse's head, and still smiled faintly as usual, and said: "The princess is not my red face, and she will not be a pitiful person because of me." The most lacking thing in this world is 'love does not know what to do and goes deep', and the most lacking thing is 'two love each other, see each other and hate each other'......"
He looked up quietly, his eyes as deep as water.
"What other good stories does Childe have? After listening to the one just now, I can't get enough of it, and I still want to hear it. ”
Gongsun Rong retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "It's not easy to tell the story, the world is full of stories, Miss wants to hear it, I will say it......"
As he spoke, the two rode away and gradually disappeared into the greenery in the distance.
After almost turning the Phoenix Mountain, seeing that it was not early and the sun was setting, Tang Guxi remembered the events of the evening, so he said to Gongsun Rong: "Yuming and I have something to do tonight, so we have to go back now, Son, let's come back another day!" With that, she reined in the horse's head and twisted the reins.
"Okay, I'll go back with Miss."
Tang Guxi nodded, and the two of them immediately whipped their horses and galloped back the way they came.
"Miss is going out to do chivalrous deeds again tonight?" On the way, Gongsun Rongxiao asked.
"Of course not! The place we are going to is the ferry, and the worst thing is that we can't startle the snake yet. ”
"Oh?" Gongsun Rong became interested, "What are you doing at the ferry?" ”
"I'll go ......," Tang Guxi hesitated for a moment, "I'm going to track my father's goods." ”
"Phew!" Gongsun Rong immediately tightened his horse, and the iron hooves immediately stopped, and when Tang Guxi saw this, he quickly turned around and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" ”
"You're going to track your dad's cargo?" Gongsun Rong was puzzled and asked in a loud voice.
"That's right."
"For ...... Why? Gongsun Rong's eyes were a little flustered and timid.
Tang Guxi noticed it, but he didn't think much about it, he was just in a hurry to go home at the moment, so he replied: "Because the goods sold by my father are needed by the court, but he is not doing things for the court, so ...... I want to find out who he's trading with and what he's trading! ”
"Then ......" Gongsun Rong calmed down a little, and his voice softened, "Then even if you know, what can you do?" ”
"If it's against loyalty, I'm going to stop it!"
"But can you stop it?" Gongsun Rong frowned and stared at her, his eyes were full of sadness and helplessness, "Since your father is doing these transactions, since it is so important, then your father will definitely send a master to protect the transport, and you alone can stop it?" ”
The sun had completely disappeared into the distant mountains, and the last glimmer of sunlight in the sky had disappeared, and the twilight was heavy and the breeze was slightly cool. Tang Guxi looked at the clouds in the sky, and then looked at Gongsun Rong Rong's cloudy cheeks, and couldn't help but ask softly, "Young Master Rong, are you...... Do you know something? ”
Gongsun Rong lowered his eyes, shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "I have only met Ling Zun once, how can I know what he has done......
"Then in that case, Childe doesn't need to say more. It's not too early, if I don't go back, I'll miss the time to meet! So saying, she turned her horse's head and went back.
"Well, how about I go with Miss?" Just when Tang Guxi was about to drive away, Gongsun Rong raised his eyes and said to her.
"Come with me to the ferry?" Tang Guxi thought she had misheard, until she saw Gongsun Rong nodding firmly, she was shocked, "No, son, let's go home, this is my family matter, I can solve it alone." ”
"What if I want to go?" Gongsun Rong looked at him fixedly, without a trace of expression on his face, and his tone was so soft, but so hard.
"Young Master Rong, I ......"
"Miss and maid are also two women anyway, I will accompany Miss to go, so I can have someone to take care of. Besides, when I was chatting with my brother on horseback yesterday, I learned that my father had recently had a dealings with Ling Zun on business...... Therefore, I should also go and find out, just like the purpose of the young lady. ”
Tang Guxi frowned and pondered for a moment, then nodded lightly and said, "Okay then." ”
