Chapter 65: Honor and Disgrace
It takes more than ten days to set off from Yanzhou, and it will arrive at the imperial city of Yunling at dusk today.
Looking ahead, you can see the golden tiles of the vermilion wall of the imperial city of Yunling, and Mingsa's heart is a little heavy at the moment.
Between the rumbling of carriages and horses and the waving of flags, she has come to Yunling three times.
And each time there is a completely different state of mind.
It is not the first time to follow his father to send an envoy to Yunling's sense of pampering, nor is it the second time to guard the chivalrous act of returning home, at this moment the heart of the family and country can only emerge in the middle of the night, but the old scene outside the imperial city of Yunling is still prosperous.
Spring is gradually born, the grass and trees are ruthless, and they are still competing for new greenery and vigorously competing for each other.
The hatred in my heart is also just like spring grass, and I will go farther and live.
……
Sure enough, when Minsa and his team were about to enter the imperial city, several guards who came from the imperial city on fast horses conveyed the will of the lord Wanfu to Gu Ting and Mingsa, and asked the county lord of Yanzhou to rest in the post house outside the imperial city for the time being, and only after being summoned could he enter the city.
At this time, the women and guards of Yanzhou who came with the team of relatives were all stared at each other, speechless, they didn't expect that this Lord of Yunling would reject Yanzhou's kindness so much, but standing outside the gate of the imperial city at this moment, what else could he do but be at the mercy of him?
Gu Ting accepted the order, and hurriedly looked at Minsa's expression, for fear of seeing her with a trace of disappointment or sadness, but fortunately, Minsa's face did not have the slightest emotional wave.
In fact, Minsa had long expected this result in his heart, so he never had the luxury of hoping that he would be able to enter the imperial city smoothly.
Moreover, the impression of the lord of Yunling is magnificent, the sky is gorgeous, the eyes are sharp and full of wisdom, at first glance, he is not like the lord of Yanzhou, Yue'an, who spoils women, so even if he can win his trust in the future, it must not be through the meaningless road of harmony.
After receiving the will of the Venerable Lord Wanfu, everyone turned the team around and went directly to the palace-like inn outside the imperial city that was specially used to house rich and noble idlers, thinking that they were going to be accompanied by the princess of the Western Regions who was dancing on the Shangyuan Festival.
Mingsa couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought about it, at that time, Sang Li, Still Shu and Gu Ting accompanied him to play the Shangyuan Festival, and Sang Li also ridiculed the princess of the Western Regions, saying that people had not been called into the city once since they were sent over, and he was not the same at this moment?
The princess was a wretched man.
Gu Ting looked at Minsa and smiled, and stared at her a few more times, for fear that she would be emotionally unstable, and he didn't know what she was laughing at.
……
After Minsa settled down in his dwelling, the attendants and wives of his relatives went to settle down.
As they walked, they didn't worry about what Minsa would hear, saying that they had long seen that this Ming family woman could not take on the big responsibility, and it was fulfilled at this moment, she was blocked outside the city by the lord of the Lingling, what is this!
These attendants and women were all sent from the main palace of Yanzhou, saying that they were for marriage, but in fact, it was equivalent to surveillance, monitoring whether Mingsa was working for Yanzhou wholeheartedly.
These small-bellied people all think that Mingsa marrying into the imperial city of Wanling will inevitably have some dirty things of intrigue and competition for favor, and the wives who are good at this matter can just come in handy, and they can always give advice for Minsa to protect Mingsa's status in the harem and the favor of the lord.
At this moment, they were all disappointed, Minsa had no chance to compete with others for favor, and was stopped in the post house outside the imperial city, and he didn't know when he would come out.
The attendants were discussing, and they also said that they would go back to Yanzhou as soon as possible and report to Yun Niangniang, and there was no need for these people to serve here.
Minsa smiled disdainfully when she heard this, if these fanning people left, she would still be able to have a leisurely life, and she would be able to reduce the constant surveillance of some eyesore people every day.
The attendants all went downstairs, and the voices of relatives gradually disappeared. At this moment, only Gu Ting and Minsa were left leaning on the fence on the second floor of the post house, looking at each other speechlessly, silent.
"These days, all you see are narrow-minded people, don't think that I, Yanzhou, are all people with such temperaments." Minsa said to Gu Ting, and he smiled helplessly after speaking.
Since hearing that something had happened to the Sun and Moon Army and rushing home, Yue'an, the lord of Yanzhou, the favored concubine Yun, the Yun family's brother, General Yun, and those guards and maidservants who tended to be inflammatory, as if overnight, their ugly faces were all exposed.
And these things, Minsa never noticed in the previous ten years. In the past, my father made the shade of this big tree really solid and heavy, because he was too spoiled and unwilling to hide the city, and it was also the hot and cold state of the world that could make people's hearts turn their faces like turning a book.
"No, isn't there still someone with a temperament like you in Yanzhou." Gu Ting's return like this made Minsa smile.
"If these people all return to Yanzhou, I can send two attendants from my mansion." Gu Ting continued.
"No, I'm used to wandering alone, and I don't need to be served by anyone for a long time," Minsa said and looked at Gu Ting, seeing his expression that seemed unwilling to agree, so he emphasized again: "I really don't need to." ”
Gu Ting nodded, knowing that what she insisted on was not easy to impose on her.
"And what are you going to do next?"
"I haven't thought about it yet, but I think I'll wait for the opportunity to enter the Imperial City of Yunling openly." Minsa said that after several times of noble help, Minsa at this moment has already regarded Gu Ting as a confidant and good friend, and he has no longer been hindered from talking to him.
"I believe in you," Gu Ting said sincerely: "But you don't have to carry yourself too much, you are you, just be yourself." ”
After listening to Gu Ting's words, Minsa was a little moved and a little dazed.
It seems that the realm of the clan and the personality in the heart have changed too quickly, and when I heard Gu Ting say let her be herself, I really didn't know what she should be like for a while.
Seeing that Mingsa was a little stunned, Gu Ting also felt that he should rush to the imperial city to inform the Venerable Lord of the trip, so he said softly to Minsa: "If you are fine, I will go to the Venerable Lord to return my life at this moment." ”
"Okay, I still want to say thank you for helping me survive this way." Minsa straightened up and said formally.
If it weren't for Gu Ting's appearance, she and Yu'er might have died under the sword of the Qingcheng assassin, and it was also because of Gu Ting's help that Ming Lie was able to clear his grievances and preserve the Ming family's eternal wisdom.
Of course, Gu Ting's appearance not only saved her life, not only saved Minglie and the Ming family, but also because there were familiar people by her side, Mingsa had more courage to face all this.
"It's not me who helps you, it's you." Gu Ting smiled, there was some admiration in his eyes, the energy contained in this little woman's weak body was really not comparable to ordinary men.
Gu Ting smiled, then walked away, after two steps, he turned his head to look at Minsa, as if he wanted to say something more, but the expression on his face was a little hesitant, and he didn't say anything after thinking about it.
Minsa understood what Gu Ting wanted to say at this moment, and looking at his expression, he must have wanted to ask himself if he really wanted to hide from him that she had come to Yunling.
So she nodded affirmatively to Gu Ting, and Gu Ting smiled calmly and walked down the stairs on the second floor and walked straight to the outside of the post house.
