Chapter 164: Ji Yue returns to Jiankang
The horses galloped in the quiet of the night, and after galloping for a while, a sparkling river with a dappled moonlight appeared in front of them.
Just as Ji Ji reacted and was about to struggle, Cui Xuan stopped the galloping horse with a sigh, and then he turned over and dismounted.
Jumping off the horse, Cui Xuan turned his head, he was bathed in the moonlight, and there was a faint smile on his handsome face that could make people breathe lightly.
It's also strange that he was obviously smiling, but Ji Ji felt the coldness at the bottom of his smile. She pursed her lips and reached out to help him jump.
As soon as Ji Ji got off the horse, Cui Xuan turned his head, and he walked towards the river with his long legs.
At this time, Ji Ji said with a little blame: "Cui Jialangjun, you shouldn't be so ......" Before she finished speaking, Cui Xuan gently "shh This is all over the mountains, with the scent of flowers blown by the river wind? ”
Ji Ji was stunned, she turned her head sideways, and sure enough, this wind blowing was not just a burst of floral fragrance? Yes, although the peach blossoms have withered, the fragrant orange trees and neem trees are in full bloom, and there should be a lot of planting near these two trees, making the river breeze intoxicating.
Cui Xuan walked slowly towards the riverside.
As he walked, he said nostalgically: "This kind of scenery where the wind is warm and the water is soft, and even the air is full of fragrance, it is really beautiful." He said in a low and dumb voice: "This Jiangnan, why is it so retained?" As he said this, he turned his head and looked at Ji Ji with his eyes facing away from the moonlight.
This person is really handsome, and his gestures are superb. Ji Ji looked at this Lang Jun, who was looking at him with his back to the light, and his body was as tall as a god, and suddenly whispered: "When you arrive in the Northland, you must take care of yourself...... Don't be despised by your emperor's life! ”
As soon as Ji Xi's voice fell, Cui Xuan looked at her with shining eyes, and after a while, he responded in a dumb voice: "Okay." After a while, Cui Xuan's low and hoarse voice came, "Xie Eighteen is so good, so that you never thought about thinking about others?" ”
Listen to him mention Xie Lang. Ji Ji was stunned. She blinked her watery eyes, and looked at Mingyue in the water that was broken and closed by the lake wind, and closed and shattered again for a while, before she said in a low voice: "He's very good...... I've given up on him, though. "Speaking of which. Ji Ji smiled to herself. She whispered again, "I saved him this time." Come to think of it, if I negotiated with him with this life-saving grace, he would cut this bond. ”
Talking and talking. Ji Ji took a long breath, and in a blink of an eye, she said with a bright smile: "I'm actually quite afraid of getting married." ”
Cui Xuan looked at her for a while, slowly turned his head, and said in a low and gentle voice, "Auntie, are you willing to marry me?" I will be good to me, and only to you for the rest of my life! ”
When he said this, although he didn't look at Ji Xi, his tone was extremely cautious, which made Ji Xi faintly feel that the reason why he called her out was to say such a sentence.
Ji Ji shook her head slowly, and she whispered back without hesitation: "Now, no one wants to get married." After a while, Ji Ji said again: "The Northland is not good, I don't like that place." ”
Ji Ji answered too decisively, Rao already knew her answer, and at this moment, Cui Xuan also froze for a long time.
Then he walked on his long legs toward the river.
It was only when he walked to a stone embankment by the river that Cui Xuancai turned his head with his hands. After a few steps away, he turned his head and looked at Ji Ji from afar, at this moment, Ji Ji actually felt that at this time, this Lang Jun was extremely lonely in his heart.
Cui Xuan stood in the river like this, holding the moonlight behind his back and looking at Ji Ji silently for a long time.
After a long silence, Cui Xuan suddenly laughed, his smile was very different, he laughed and laughed and let out a long howl, which caused the night wind to follow the corresponding whistling sound, and it was far away.
After the whistle stopped, Cui Xuan stood there proudly and said, "Auntie, it's time for me to say goodbye to you!" ”
He looked back at Ji Ji with a smile, and said lightly: "I am very satisfied with this trip to the south, if Ah Ji comes to the north one day, Cui Xuan will definitely treat him with kindness!" ”
This Lang Jun has obviously been expressing his affection to her for a while, and he was still asking her to marry just now. But in the blink of an eye, he let go.
Also, such a dragon and phoenix watch, the top magnate of peerless elegance, he has his own pride and his persistence, when he wants to show goodwill, he is thousands of gentle, he wants to understand that when he gives up, he is also light and unrestrained!
Listening to the echo of the mountains caused by the whistling sound, Ji Ji smiled silently.
…… After a while, Cui Xuan turned over on the white horse and carried Ji Ji back to the mansion silently.
In the blink of an eye, the night passed.
Ji Ji slept late, and didn't fall asleep until the early hours of the morning, she had just fallen into a situation where she seemed to be asleep, and suddenly, there was a commotion and cheers outside.
The cheers were so loud that Ji Ji hurriedly opened her eyes.
Ji Ji turned over and stayed down, put on a robe and walked out of the room on wooden shoes.
Almost as soon as she opened the courtyard door, Ji Ji saw that in the morning light with dew, Xie Lang, who was dressed in white, was walking towards her surrounded by all the Xie clans.
It's Xie Lang who is here!
Yes, yes, although he is still personable, there is still dew on this person's eyelashes, and there is also wetness on the black hair tied up by the jade crown, which is clearly coming overnight!
At this moment, Xie Lang looked up and saw Ji Ji.
He first paused, and in a blink of an eye, Xie Lang's pace accelerated, he strode in front of Ji Ji, first looked her up and down, and suddenly, Xie Lang stretched out his arms and hugged Ji Ji heavily in his arms!
As if holding a lost and recovered treasure, Xie Lang hugged Ji heavily for a while, and then took a step back and said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard, now that you are here, you can go and rest." "What he ordered was naturally Xie Guang and the others.
Then, Xie Lang looked down at Ji Ji again, and gently imprinted a kiss on Ji Ji's forehead, Xie Lang said in a low voice: "Auntie, I returned safely, are you happy?" ”
No, she's happy. She was so happy!
Ji Ji pursed her lips and thought again: It's just that she doesn't want this person to know that she is so happy.
As if sensing the ups and downs of Ji Ji's heart, Xie Lang chuckled lowly, "You just got up from the couch, right?" Well, it's still early, you can make up for it for a while. ”
After finishing speaking, Xie Lang let go of Ji Ji, turned around and walked in the direction of Cui Xuan gracefully.
Cui Xuan didn't know how long he had been awake, and he was leaning against the door frame, looking towards this side with a smile.
Just when Ji Ji retreated to the room to wash again. Xie Lang had already come to Cui Xuan.
The two looked at each other. Cui Xuan was the first to speak, and he chuckled: "When I saw Eighteen Lang this time, I suddenly found that Lang Jun became more and more relaxed and detached, and it seemed that he had gone to the end of his depression. Don't. Eighteen Lang is this a decision? ”
Xie Lang bowed slightly. Calmly said, "Yes." was previously confined to secular etiquette, and always wanted to bring Auntie back to Chenjun Xie's family so that she could have a name. Now he has confessed to his family that he will never marry again in this life. ”
Cui Xuan was stunned. After a while, he sighed lightly: "If you don't marry, just be a pair of wild birds scattered in the world?" It was an easy decision. ”
As soon as these words came out, Xie Lang also smiled, he shook his head and said: "It's not difficult to decide, I used to think about not marrying a woman and taking a concubine to be good to myself, but then I entered the obstacles, I didn't want Auntie to attract bees and butterflies with a free body, and I knew that Auntie was the most important name, and I wanted her and me to be recognized by the world." ”
After getting along day and night for a while, Cui Xuan also has a good understanding of Ji Ji, and he said with his head bowed: "You are right, if the Ji family really makes this kind of nameless husband and wife with you, it doesn't matter if it is a year or two, after a long time, as a woman, she will eventually be like a wanderer." ”
The two just said a few words casually, and Xie Lang already understood that Cui Xuan seemed to be letting go of Ji Ji!
He finally let go of her!
Xie Lang wanted to laugh, but he didn't laugh, he smiled and glanced at a wisp of floating clouds not far away, and felt that his body and mind were clear.
It's just that these two people talked to themselves, and they didn't think at all, what if Ji Ji really had no intention of continuing?
……
Cui Xuan set off in the afternoon.
Before leaving, he sat with Xie Lang in a flat boat for a long time. After all, Ji Ji is a woman, and she is not qualified to get involved in the conversation between the two, so she returned to the house to pack her luggage and prepare to go to Jiankang.
But what Ji Ji didn't expect was that Cui Xuan left on the front foot, and Xie Lang told her on the back foot, saying that it was because of her ability to show in the meeting with the Northern Wei National Teacher in Yangzhou, not long ago, all the Taoist masters of Liu Song Dynasty jointly wrote to the emperor, asking for Ji Ji to be officially named the national teacher.
…… This is not good news!
The Buddhism sects that are now blooming everywhere in Jiankang and the Southern Dynasties originally fled from the butcher's knife of the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Southern Dynasties, how could they allow this last place of peace to become the home of Taoism again?
So, after the news came, the monks were excited, and they were afraid that after Ji Yue became the national teacher, they would repeat the Northern Wei national teacher's set of Xingdao exorcism methods, so they wrote to protest.
In other words, unconsciously, the name Ji Yue was once again involved in the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism and became the focus of it.
Xie Lang told Ji Ji that because the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty killed the Buddha too tragically, now the senior monks of Liu Song are all in danger, and even those believers in Buddhism also have murderous intent towards Ji Yue, a quasi-national teacher! There is a plan to strike first!
Therefore, Xie Lang hurriedly found Ji Ji this time, just because he was afraid that he would enter Jiankang without warning.
In the end, after discussion, Ji Ji re-pretended to be Ji Yue, but this time Ji Yue was Ji Yue who was seriously injured by the Northern Wei Dynasty during the siege of Yangzhou.
In other words, Ji Yue entered Jiankang this time, and he had to enter in a state of being seriously injured and getting sick again, so that he was suffering from chronic illness. Fortunately, Doctor Situ arrived in Jiankang, and Ji Yue could ask Doctor Situ to help him, so that everyone would believe that his Ji Yue's health was really bad. Then, Ji Yue only needed to show his face a little in front of the emperor and everyone, and he could avoid this Buddhist dispute under the pretext that he needed to leave Jiankang for treatment. Of course, Ji Yue left Jiankang, but his sister Ji Ji was still there.
……
Jiankang in April is still so prosperous and lively, this kind of comfortable luxury carved into the bones and flowing in the air, the fragrance is soft, so that Ji Yuan and others, who came to Jiankang for the first time, were dazzled.
Today is the day when Ji Yue returns to the dynasty.
Although the news of Ji Yue's injury reached the emperor's case early, on this day, when Ji Yue arrived in Jiankang, he was greeted by a sea of people.
At the forefront were several ministers and imperial physicians sent by the emperor, as well as officials such as Wang Zhen who had some friendship with him.
Then, there were Xiao Daocheng and Ji Ji's servants who looked ahead anxiously and jumped a few times from time to time.
Then, in the corner of one side, there were several donkey carts parked, and among those donkey carts, there were Xiao Yan, Zhuang Shisan and others.
Of course, behind the docks, and in the attics on both sides of the street, there are still some Buddhist people!
All of this is here to greet Ji Yue.
Gradually, the ship carrying Ji Yue docked on the dock.
Gradually, Ji Yuan and other servants carried Ji Yue, who was half-lying on the tablet, his handsome and clear face was extremely pale, and he was obviously much thinner, appeared in front of everyone.
Because of Cui Xuan's Xie Lang in the past two months, Ji Yue was uneasy day and night, and he lost more than a dozen pounds, so as soon as Ji Ji, who was sick and almost skeletal, appeared, everyone who came to greet him was shocked, and at this moment, the people who were still a little doubtful almost immediately believed that Ji Yue was indeed seriously ill!
As Ji Yue appeared on the dock, Xiao Daocheng, who had grown taller, was the first to rush up, this young man in the development period, choked up with a dumb duck voice when he saw Ji Yue.
After Ji Yue stroked a few words weakly, he turned his head to several officials and Zhuang Shisan and others.
Then, surrounded by the crowd, he entered his house in a majestic manner.
Ji Yue had just returned home, and the imperial doctor sent by the emperor had also arrived.
However, Xie Lang, who has always been thoughtful, has already taken countermeasures, and Ji Ji only needs to pinch something under her armpits to make her pulse chaotic.
So, after the imperial doctors shook their heads and sighed, Ji Yue's serious illness was finally confirmed, and then, Ji Yue wrote a letter in his illness, asking the emperor to resign from the court.
The emperor did not allow it, and also rewarded Ji Yue lavishly, allowing him to recuperate for a while until he recovered and returned to the court.
Then, Ji Yue told the emperor that it was the divine doctor Situ who said that there was a hermit in Jingzhou who could cure his current chronic disease, and he would leave Jiankang to seek medical treatment.
In this way, ten days after returning to Jiankang, Ji Yue quietly left Jiankang and disappeared in front of everyone.
To be honest, Ji Yue's retreat this time was very timely, because during his time in Yangzhou, he was close to Xie Lang and Cui Xuan, and the matter of getting along with the Northern Wei National Teacher was secretly told to the emperor. The emperor, who was wary of Ji Yue's might be ambitious and had treacherous schemes, was preparing to summon him to the palace for accountability.
You must know that the current emperor is in a big rage because of Liu Yikang's rebellion, and he has killed many ministers, Ji Yue, a big or small matter, is committed on the angry emperor, and it is very likely that he will be sent to prison. It's just a matter of going to prison, that is, if there is any body search or bullying incident when he is in prison, it is very likely that his woman's body will be exposed.
After finding out that he had escaped a catastrophe, Ji Yue suddenly thought that every decision Xie Lang made seemed to be just right. Then on this day, he accidentally learned that he had gone to Yangzhou to receive the Northern Wei Guoshi and Cui Xuan, and Xie Lang had instructed someone to build a letter to the emperor...... In other words, the reason why Ji Yue was involved in the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, and now he has to pretend to be sick and withdraw from the court, and make Ji Yue's identity disappear in front of others, is the result of Xie Lang's calculations!
