(Cat flutter Chinese ) Before the court peony demon is unqualified,

Ikegami Hibiscus is net and less affectionate.

Only the peony is true to the country,

When the flowers bloom, the capital is moved.

In the thirteenth year of Jiande, the prosperity of the capital is still the same, the singing and dancing are leveling, and the world is full of fragrant flowers in April, but it is the best period for the scholars to enjoy the peony.

And in the entire capital, the one with the most peony varieties and the most memorable one is the Lingxuan Pavilion, which is as famous as the Fulin Yuchun Hall.

Lingxuan Pavilion was not called Lingxuan Pavilion before, but the well-known Sakura Pavilion, since the Sakura Pavilion was seized thirteen years ago, there have been guests here for a long time, but just five years ago, this Sakura Pavilion was bought by another owner, in addition to the "midsummer snow" that can be enjoyed in winter, there are all kinds of strange flowers and plants that can not be appreciated in all seasons, among which the most attractive to the children of the Beijing Shi clan to come here to enjoy the eighteen varieties of peonies!

Zifeng Chaoyang, Jade Lou Diancui, Molou Zhenghui, Peach Blossom Frost, Ice Cover Lanyu, Wujin Yaohui, as well as Yao Huang, Wei Zi, White Lotus Fragrance, no matter which one is extremely difficult to plant and survive.

Fine wine, beautiful scenery, and beauties are often the objects of these literati and elegant guests to express their feelings and poems, and at this time, the Lingxuan Pavilion is already full of witty sentences and is very lively.

Xu Moxuan and Lu Yanzhao are also frequent visitors here, the two of them chose a secluded corner, and when they watched those literati compete for their talents in the praise of the colorful peony flowers, they couldn't help laughing.

"The eldest brother always tells me some big truths, I don't understand, but seeing that he is also doing very well with Ah Ling in Taoyuan Valley now, I understand why he gave up his official position in the first place!" Xu Moxuan sighed slightly.

Lu Yanzhao also sighed: "Yes! Isn't there a saying in Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching that the house is full of gold and jade, and Mo can keep it. Rich and arrogant, self-blame. If you retire after success, is the way of heaven also? When the time comes, it's time for us to unload our armor and return to the field! ”

"Lu Yanzhao, are you playing with me again, bullying me to study less than you?"

Looking at Xu Moxuan's playful and dissatisfied expression, Lu Yanzhao also smiled slightly: "You are also not young, but your temperament is still so stubborn, you are not allowed to teach your eldest brother's daughter badly, I have to help my son get back to be a daughter-in-law in the future!" ”

Xu Moxuan sneered and said with a smile: "Then it depends on whether your son has this ability?" Besides, you're air to my son? ”

In the second year of Jiande, Xu Moxuan married the sixth miss of the Yang family, that is, the daughter of Yang Mingyu, and in the fourth year, the two finally had their first son, and Yang Xin was indeed a child who could be raised, and later gave birth to a son and a daughter to Xu Moxuan, and the Jiang family is finally no longer sparse.

Xu Moxuan should also let go of the obsession in his heart.

When Lu Yanzhao thought of this, he couldn't help but smile, and then thought of Han Ling again, it seemed that since Han Ling gave birth to the pair of twins for Xu Shuxuan, it had been a lot more difficult for him to have children, and there were only two children between the two so far.

Now that six years have passed, the twins should be six years old by now!

Six years old! Lu Yanzhao can still clearly remember that when he first met Han Ling at the Yang family, the girl was also six years old!

A very interesting but very strong and intelligent girl, she has been surprised and shocked since she was a child.

Just as Lu Yanzhao was thinking like this, a childish child's voice suddenly sounded in the hall downstairs, saying: "There is a saying in the Book of Rites, the journey of the avenue is also, the world is for the public, Zhuangzi also said, Qi all things, Qi right and wrong, there is no distinction between high and low, the Buddha said that all living beings are equal, since all living beings are equal, why can't men and women be equal, and adults and children can't be equal?" ”

This remark immediately caused the children of the family to look back in surprise, and the guests in the hall saw a very beautiful child wearing a white fox fur and a white jade crown standing in the crowd, calmly shaking a jade fracture fan, and refuted loudly to several sons.

One of the sons seemed to be refuted, and he reprimanded him unhappily: "When adults speak, what do children interject, whose child is this, so ignorant?" ”

The little child still shook the folding fan unhurriedly, paced very lightly in front of the son, snorted coldly, and said: "I'm reasoning with you, the big brother can't distinguish me, so he says I'm not sensible, then big brother, aren't you more ignorant than me?" ”

As soon as the child's voice fell, it immediately caused the whole house to laugh, and the face of the son, who was speechless, turned even more blue and red.

Lu Yanzhao looked at the little child thoughtfully, laughed suddenly, and asked Xu Moxuan: "Is this the boy or girl in the twins?" ”

Xu Moxuan also stared intently at the naughty and high-spirited child, took a sip of wine, squinted and smiled: "Guess? ”

Lu Yanzhao turned his gaze to the child standing in the hall again, and replied: "He looks very similar to your eldest brother, but his eyes are almost exactly the same as Ah Ling, and he has this proud and unyielding personality, which is also very similar to Ah Ling, I guess...... It's supposed to be a boy, right? ”

Xu Moxuan only smiled and didn't answer, put down the wine glass in his hand, he also stood up suddenly, walked to the jade fence on the side of the corridor, and beckoned to the children downstairs: "Qianlong, come upstairs, Uncle Moxuan has something good to give you!" ”

When the child heard the sound, he suddenly raised his head and saw that it was Xu Moxuan, and the small cherry mouth in his eyes immediately smiled!

"Uncle Mo Xuan!"

Almost in the blink of an eye, the child ran up from downstairs like a rabbit, pounced on Xu Moxuan's side, and called sweetly: "Why is Uncle Moxuan here today?" ”

"What do I want to ask you? Did you sneak out again while your father and mother weren't paying attention? What did you do just now, arguing with that son like that, if something happens and your mother is worried, Uncle Mo Xuan can't spare you! Xu Moxuan deliberately scolded with a tiger face.

The child immediately put on a pitiful expression, pulled Xu Moxuan and begged: "Good Uncle Moxuan, but don't tell my mother, I came here to talk about the mystery with people again, my mother doesn't like me to talk about the mystery with others......" The child pouted, and after saying a word, the words immediately turned again, and a trace of angry flush appeared on his face with clear eyebrows, and explained, "It was the son who was unreasonable just now, they were talking about the similarities and differences between Mingjiao and Lao Zhuang, and the boy said that there would be no difference, so I only distinguished one sentence, In a word, what is the fake in three, the son was not happy, and argued with me, but then he couldn't distinguish it, so he simply said, only women and villains are difficult to raise! Why is it difficult to raise women and villains? He was sexist and ageist, and I couldn't get angry, so I discerned it with him......

The child's words made Xu Moxuan stunned again and again, Lu Yanzhao couldn't help laughing, he smiled, and immediately attracted the attention of the child.

"Hey, who is this uncle? He and Uncle Mo Xuan's eyes look like oh, is it also my other uncle? ”

The child asked innocently, Xu Moxuan smiled and led her to Lu Yanzhao's side, and said, "Have you forgotten?" When you were young, this uncle hugged you, he is indeed Uncle Mo Xuan's brother, you can call him Uncle Zhao! ”

Lu Yanzhao was so frightened that he squirted out a sip of tea, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "How ugly is Uncle Zhao?" Let's call me Uncle Lu! ”

As soon as the words fell, the child quickly came to Lu Yanzhao's side smartly, and made a sudden realization, and said: "Oh, I remember, Uncle Lu hugged me when I was a child, I remember!" Uncle Lu came today to bring some gifts to Chitoki, tomorrow is Chitaki and his brother's birthday! ”

Xu Moxuan was instantly dumbfounded, remember? What to remember? You weren't even a year old at the time, were you? Genius!

Lu Yanzhao was also a little dumbfounded, looked at the child's smart and wise eyes, and said in his heart: It turned out to be a girl!

Indeed, tomorrow is the birthday of the twins, Lu Yanzhao took out a pair of carefully carved puppet toys from his arms, Xu Moxuan sneered disdainfully, pulled Qianlong, stuffed a long-life golden lock for her and said, "Why are you looking for Uncle Lu for a gift?" Look at Uncle Lu's gift! It's still Uncle Mo Xuan's longevity gold lock! ”

The child glanced at the longevity golden lock, quickly shook his head, and said: "Uncle Mo Xuan gives me longevity lock or longevity peach every year, this is clearly something for the old lady and grandfather, it's too cheesy, I like the pair of puppets carved by Uncle Lu!" ”

After picking up a pair of puppets in Lu Yanzhao's hand, the child secretly glanced at Xu Moxuan's expression again, and then said slyly: "However, if Uncle Mo Xuan is willing to teach me to ride a horse and shoot arrows, I won't think the gift from Uncle Mo Xuan is cheesy!" ”

"What do girls learn to ride and shoot, besides, you are still young, in case you fall off your horse, how can I explain to your father!"

Before Xu Moxuan finished speaking, he saw the child pouting very aggrievedly, pointing at him and saying, "Uncle Moxuan, you also have sexism and ageism, and look down on girls and children!" ”

Xu Moxuan's eyes widened and he was speechless, and Lu Yanzhao covered his mouth and secretly laughed on the side.

As a result, Xu Moxuan and Lu Yanzhao went horseback riding with Qianlong, and the two of them ran around the moat almost with the child, and finally got tired, and when they were resting on a piece of grass, Lu Yanzhao deliberately joked and asked her, is her father or Uncle Moxuan better?

The child replied innocently: "Daddy is too uncannibalistic, I still like Uncle Mo Xuan and Uncle Lu are so fireworks and very humorous, and Daddy can spoil his mother, he can't pet it alone, but also let me and my brother spoil my mother, Daddy said that my mother gave birth to us when it was hard, almost in the ghost gate closed a trip, once, I also overheard Daddy told his mother that women should be spoiled, the more they spoil, the more blessed they will be!" However, I still agree with my mother's words......"

Xu Moxuan said: "Your father is right!" You should spoil your mother together! ”

Then he asked, "But what did your mother say?" ”

The child jumped up with joy, picked up a bow and arrow, opened the bow and pulled the string, pointed to the geese in the air, and replied: "My mother said that girls must first learn to protect themselves and make themselves strong, so that they will not affect others, and better love the people they love!" ”

"So, when I grow up, I want to be a woman like my mother!"

The child's words suddenly made Xu Moxuan and Lu Yanzhao stunned, it was this sentence that pulled their thoughts back to the fifth year of Jiande seven years ago, in that battle, Jiao Wanting used Ah Ling as bait to trick them one by one to the sea boat, and captured them and trapped them in a secret room.

It was in that secret room that Jiao Wanting actually threatened their lives in turn and asked Ah Ling to fight with her alone, and at that time Jiao Wanting said: "I want you to know that your love and spoiling for her will only make her die faster in my hands!" The best way for a woman to protect herself is never to rely on a strong man, but to make herself strong enough! ”

"Han Ling, why don't we play a game, let me see how long you can last, if you let me down, or can't let me be satisfied and happy, then I will kill these men one after another, do you think it?"

That game was cruel, Ah Ling didn't know how many knives she had suffered, but she could still stand up resolutely, and they could only watch, almost breaking their heads and doing nothing!

At that moment, they were so desperate that they even wanted to die! And what made them even more blameful and painful was that Ah Ling was three months pregnant at that time, and her and her eldest brother's first child fell like this, with so much blood flowing on the ground, and Ah Ling's desperate and painful eyes...... To this day, when I think about it, it will be like a knife in my heart, and the pain is so painful that I can't breathe.

"By the way, Uncle Mo Xuan, Uncle Lu, I heard that seven years ago, you went to Fujian with your mother and father to fight against the Japanese invaders, I heard that you were brave, and you also killed a powerful and fierce woman, and later blew up all the ships of the Japanese invaders, can you tell me the story of your resistance to the Japanese at that time!"

Xu Moxuan and Lu Yanzhao didn't know how to answer for a while, so they touched Qianlong's little head and said, "It's not too early, I have to go to your father and mother first, and after we go to a place together, I'll tell you, okay?" ”

The place Xu Moxuan said was a small hillside full of rhododendrons in Taoyuan Valley, and there was a tomb on that hillside that had been repaired to be very bare and clean, and a tablet was erected in front of the tomb, which read: - Tomb of Nangong Yu!

Xu Shuxuan, Han Ling, Xu Moxuan, Lu Yanzhao and Yang Yizhi all stood silent at this tablet, sprinkled wine, and bowed to each other.

Nangong Yu is Toyotomi Takiichi, just because Toyotomi Takichi said to Xu Shuxuan before he died: "I can go back to Nangong Yu in the future, please take me back to Da Yu, I will still be a big man in the future!" ”

In the decisive battle seven years ago, Jiao Wanting finally died at the hands of Toyotomi Taki, and even they could not have imagined that Toyotomi Taki, in the end, would choose to betray Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the lord of Sekihaku, who betrayed the country of the rising sun, to help them.

After he killed Toyotomi Hideyoshi, he rushed to the secret room, and when he saw Han Ling covered in blood, Toyotomi Takichi suddenly fought with Jiao Wanting like a crazy lion, and Jiao Wanting at that time was on par with him in force, and after a battle that lasted for an hour, he stabbed the katana in his hand into Jiao Wanting's heart by suicide.

At the moment of Jiao Wanting's death, a pair of eyes looked directly at Toyotomi Takichi with a pair of resentful eyes, and suddenly laughed wildly.

She said: "Senior brother, do you know why I am what I am today, it is all because of you! Because of your humiliation of me, playing with and trampling on my feelings, I want to take revenge on you, revenge for everything you love! I originally loved you very much, but you wanted to kill me again and again for the sake of Han Ling, a slut, it's ridiculous! ”

"Haha...... It's really ridiculous, it's ridiculous that you died with Han Ling in your previous life, but in this life you died with me, a despicable person who is despised by you, do you think this is the will of heaven? ”

"God's will is that we are a natural pair, I am **, slutty, shameless, and cheap, but how much better are you than me, senior brother? In fact, we also belong to the same kind of people! ”

In the midst of Jiao Wanting's resentful laughter and curses, Toyotomi Takiichi actually pulled out the katana she inserted into his chest, cut off her head with a single sword, and finally even cut off her hands!

In this way, they were completely separated.

The blood in his chest gushed out, but he seemed to be unaware, so he walked in front of Han Ling, bandaged her wounds, and fed her the elixir of smelting wounds, and then stroked Han Ling's hair over and over again with his blood-stained hands, and finally only said one word.

He said: "Ah Ling, the debt in the previous life, I have paid it off in this life, you won't hate me anymore, right?" ”

"The past, the past, where is there so much hatred? I don't hate it for a long time! ”

When Han Ling finished saying this, Toyotomi Taki smiled abruptly, leaned against a huge wooden pillar, and slowly closed his eyes.

Han Ling's eyes turned red, and the crystals in the corners of his eyes fell drop by drop.

Because of the ** buried in the sea boat, they finally failed to bring his body when they escaped, and later took a piece of jade pendant from the Nangong family that represented his identity on his body, and built a clothed mound on this hillside.

"Yu, everything has been settled, your efforts in the country of the rising sun have not been in vain, and now the big eyes are peaceful!"

After Xu Shuxuan finished saying this, he took Han Ling's hand and sighed: "She is also very good, I will love her for the rest of my life, you should also rest assured!" ”

After worshipping, a few people came down from the hillside, and they heard a song of Zheng Zhengqin, from melodious to Xiaosu, vast and ethereal, although not skilled enough, but there is already a hidden momentum of "Guangling San".

Everyone saw a child sitting on the stone rock next to the pond and stroking the piano, the child closed his eyes, combed his hair in a bun, and his face was pink and clear, like when Han Ling was young.

When a few people walked up to him, he didn't know it, and was still plucking the strings with his little hands wholeheartedly.

After a song, he opened his eyes, and suddenly found that there were people standing behind him, slightly startled, he stood up, and saluted Xu Shuxuan and Han Ling, and called softly in a childish voice: "Daddy, mother!" ”

Then he looked at Xu Moxuan and Lu Yanzhao, and also saluted obediently: "Uncle Moxuan, and this is ......"

"It's Uncle Lu!" Another child who had changed into women's clothes ran out of the house, looked at Lu Yanzhao with a smile on his face and pointed at the little boy who was caressing the qin and introduced, "This is my younger brother Xu Qianye!" ”

Lu Yanzhao was stunned, and glanced at the little boy carefully, and found that the boy's appearance was very similar to Han Ling, but his eyes were as calm as water, magnificent and bright, and they were no different from Xu Shuxuan - it turned out that this was their son!

Han Ling squatted down, stroked the child's soft cheeks, and asked softly, "Why is Ye'er stroking the piano here?" Who taught you "Guangling San"? ”

She and Shu Xuan have never been taught, because of her father's death, she has never wanted to touch that kind of memory, and she doesn't want her mother to recall, so she has never taught this song to her children.

Qianye blinked her eyes and replied: "The qin song was taught by Uncle Yizhi, and my grandmother said that she liked to listen to this song very much, so Ye'er learned it from her uncle and played it to her grandmother every day......

The grandmother in the child's mouth is Yang Qiuxuan, since Han Ling and Xu Shuxuan moved here with the child to live in seclusion, they also took Yang Qiuxuan here, Yang Qiuxuan also took Yang Qiuxuan here, Yang Qiuxuan likes children very much, and is happy to enjoy the family fun of children and grandchildren surrounded by knees.

After Han Ling and Xu Shuxuan listened to the child's words, they also hurried to Yang Qiuxuan's room, and saw her holding a wolf hair in her hand, and her eyes were stunned and she was looking at the handwriting on the bookcase in a daze.

Han Ling asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Listen to Ye'er, you just had a nightmare? ”

Yang Qiuxuan smiled and replied: "I don't know if it's because I'm old, my mother always loves to dream lately, and what I dreamed about was the past, but in the past, my mother dreamed more of Qilang, but in the past few days, I don't know what's going on, so I dreamed of the master!" As she spoke, she explained to Han Ling with a smile, "That is, your master!" ”

At the mention of the master, Han Ling and Xu Shuxuan were extremely shocked in their hearts, even Xu Moxuan and Lu Yanzhao were no exception.

Thirteen years ago, Han Ling didn't tell Yang Qiuxuan about the master's death in that mutiny, because the master was dead, and she didn't tell her mother the truth that the master was her father, thinking: Anyway, my mother doesn't know, so let her never know the truth for the rest of her life!

I didn't expect my mother to dream of the master?

Han Ling couldn't help asking, "That mother dreamed of the teacher...... What is Shigong doing? ”

"What are you doing?" Yang Qiuxuan muttered, but the picture in his mind was extremely clear.

The master sits under the tree and plays the piano!

The master taught her to read and practice calligraphy!

The master listened carefully to her story!

And when the master occasionally looked at her, the bright and smiling light jumped out of the eyes that seemed to have precipitated thousands of years of wisdom!

Once, she asked her master, "Does the master have a home?" Do you have a wife and children? Can Xuan'er visit her master's home in the future? ”

The master only smiled and shook his head, and replied: "No, if Xuan'er misses the master, the master will come to Xuan'er!" ”

Yang Qiuxuan thought for a while, and then asked, "Then the master should always tell Xuan'er, what's your surname, right?" ”

The master plucked the strings, and in the trembling of the piano sound, he smiled slightly, and his voice came like an echo of the hollow valley, and he only replied with three words: "My surname is Ji!" (To be continued.) Cat flutter Chinese
