Chapter 254: Ancient Qi Shao X Gu Qing

People who know Qi Shao think he is a very strange person.

Of course, the good kind.

Qi Shao was born in the Qi family in Jingnan, and the Qi family and the current Shengshang are the same clan, but they have never been reused. Because the Qi family specializes in strange people, how many prodigal or shocking "madmen" are from this clan.

In the previous Yin Dynasty, there were few Qi family members in power. People should be their own "celebrities" and place their affection on the landscape. It wasn't until later that the Hu people invaded, and the Chu family of the same township rebelled, and the Qi family thought about it, and the fellow villagers all rebelled, and no matter how famous the people were, they had to take care of the righteousness, so they sent money and people to send grain and grass to rebel together.

But not every king dares to use such a person who may drop the chain at a critical moment. Therefore, Qi Yao, the most amazing and brilliant Qi Yao of the Qi family, happily drank and celebrated all night at several important times, and after he made a mistake, Chu Yue blacklisted him, declaring that he was a "gentleman" and was not suitable for the imperial court.

The Qi family's special weirdos also lie in Qi Xuan. Qi Xuan is Qi Shao's youngest uncle, not much older than Qi Shao, but Qi Shao's grandfather, who has a poisonous mouth, swept him out early.

The Qi family thought that the people of the Central Plains could no longer stand his cold-faced judge-like character, and suggested that he go to poison foreigners and promote the prestige of our country, but he really went, and he became the position of Zuo Shaoqing in Honglu Temple as soon as he sat down, and became the famous "cold-faced Shaoqing" in Dachu, and he could surprise the Hu people up and down Honglu Temple every time he came to inquire about Qi Xuan's absence.

Among the Qi family and Chu Rui's contemporaries, there is a normal scribe, that is, Qi Shao's father, Qi Xuan.

So he became the patriarch.

But this "normal" is limited to receiving people and things on weekdays, courtesy and responsibility.

Qi Shao's father, not out.

In other words, he is also a weirdo, and he does not want to be an official.

A family, the most powerful and smartest is an unreliable, the most knowledgeable is a guy with a poisonous mouth and a wife who wants to reconcile, and the only one who can revive the family business, but he is unwilling to be an official......

Therefore, in the two generations of emperors, none of them thought that such a family could threaten the throne, and after all, it was a big family with the same county, Chu Yue and Chu Rui were very honored with the Qi family, and handed over a department like Guozijian to Qi Shao.

Hearing that it was teaching, and it didn't involve any government affairs, Qi Xuan happily accepted the position of the country's priest and wine, and stayed in this son for more than ten years.

Although the imperial court later opened the imperial examination, and the imperial examination has not been held smoothly under the various obstructions of the Shi clan faction, Qi Xuan, as the emperor's side, was not affected at all because of the problem of being born in the family and not taking power, and continued to live a comfortable life with 300 students in his national prison.

Qi Shao, the eldest son of Qi Xuan, has been smart and clever since he was a child, and was highly expected by the whole family (especially his grandfather), who was considered to be the most likely lineage to make the Qi family prosperous.

He has had a very strong affinity since he was a child, and the children of all the relatives of the Qi family are willing to play with him when they come, even if they can't get used to him, they can soon become friends.

When Qi Shao entered the Guozijian at the age of twelve, many of his peers who did not disdain to go to the Guozijian at all actually entered the Guozijian in order to get along with this friend often, and his personality charm can be seen from this.

He is sensitive and studious, outspoken and eloquent, and has a natural compassion for others, and has always taken care of those students who are enrolled in poor schools in the Guozi Prison. He later became the head of the council, in charge of the clothing, food, housing, and transportation of all the students of the country, as well as his words and deeds, and quickly attracted people's attention to his unique talents.

Guozijian originally did not have a "living expenses", and the poor students who were imprisoned lived very hard, but he asked Qi Xuan to draw up an excerpt to fight for it from the court, and finally approved it.

This "living expenses" are half a square every month, and only 100 of the 300 students from poor families are from poor families, and they spend less than 50 taels of silver every month, but they can make many students not have to copy books in the cold night, do coolies during the day, and put all their minds on studying.

Then he took many students from poor families and clans to have nothing to do with the "side business", and he could also make a lot of money, which fully demonstrated his sensitivity to business and his talent in "management". It's a pity that he is the son of the Qi family with a prosperous literary style, and he must not be able to engage in business, otherwise he will definitely be a generation of giants.

Such a Qi Shao has been praised by many elders of the world as a talent for "going out and entering the phase", but he is as eccentric as his father, unwilling to stand in line, and unwilling to be a leader, which is very embarrassing.

And he didn't get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and he didn't get married, which is even more weird.

Qi Shao won the championship before he was twenty years old, and everyone felt that it was time to marry him with his status at this time, and the nineteen-year-old son of heaven gave up people, even if his parents felt that they couldn't find a good lady in the past, it was enough now.

But he still didn't get married.

At this time, everyone understood that the bloodline of the Qi family was an exception.

Qi Yao is wild, Qi Xuan is cold, Qi Xuan is stubborn, this is not terrible.

The most terrible kind of "madman" is "not married".

Qi Shao is the eldest, and there are three younger brothers and two sisters below, his second brother is five years different from him, when he was nineteen years old, his second brother was also fourteen years old, which is the age at which he can be married, but because his brother is not determined, he has not been fixed, and good people are waiting for Qi Shao.

Qi's mother cried, Qi's father even broke the stick, and Qi Shao just didn't want to give in. He had told his mother that he could not accept a strange woman who would live with him for the rest of his life because of a marriage contract, and that if she was so engaged, he would run away from home and become a monk.

Qi Shao never threatens people indiscriminately, nor does he lie casually, he is serious when he says this.

The Qi family finally looked forward to a descendant with a clear head, with a good future, and the emperor's favor, and the children of the two factions of the family and the nobles were iron-clad friendships, and no one dared to force him too much.

So the marriage dragged on.

The Qi family is a big family, and Qi Shao has been in contact with many concubines of the family since he was a child, all of whom were brought by relatives or he visited relatives to meet them. But after a long time of contact, Qi Shao didn't know what kind of woman he would like.

Is she fat or thin, tall or short, innocent and romantic or calm and self-controlled......

Qi Shao felt terrified when he thought that all her side was the one that was shown to the world, just like himself.

Sometimes he even envies Li Rui, who has been married since he was a child, and he actually longs for his fiancée very much, but he has never met him.

If it was him, I am afraid that he would have inquired about the girl who washed her face several times a day and bathed once a few days.

Qi Shao had never had such a feeling of "longing" for women until he fished up a boat lamp from the water on a Mid-Autumn Festival night.

The boat lamp he picked up is more complicated, and at first glance, it is not something that ordinary people will buy. Poor families use bamboo strips as bone paper as flour, and few use silk and silk cloth in this way.

Qi Shao went to fish for a boat, purely because the convention is that if you make a wish, you have to pick up someone else's boat to see what other people's wishes are and whether they can be realized.

What he promised was "national peace and security", and he thought that unless the emperor came in person, he would just not be able to fish it up and throw it back into the water.

And he salvaged the ship, not because it was the best-looking, but because it was closest to him.

"When is the bright moon? Ask the sky for wine. I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high place is unbearable. Dancing to figure out the shadow, how does it seem to be in the world?

Turn Zhu Pavilion, low Qi, shine sleeplessly. There should be no hatred, what is the long time to say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”

The signature is "Gu Qing worships".

This fishing has simply become his lifelong catastrophe.

In the scene full of river lights and bright as a galaxy, in the bustling and endless boat lights drifting into the distance, you pick up a lamp, and the wishing card on the lamp is written in such a poem that can make people astonished, and anyone will have a sense of "fate".

When Qi Shao saw that poem, it was like fate, and he could never let go again.

Even if the handwriting of that word was very stiff, as if the arm was broken and continued, and the child had just started to learn words, Qi Shao stubbornly thought that the woman named Gu Qing must have done it deliberately for some reason.

Since then, Qi Shao has been obsessed with that wishing card, that poem, and that Gu Qing.

It's like picking up a leaf, because it's the only thing you can touch, and you think of its source as a forest.

Qi Shao's "madness" has long been carved into his bones, but his skin and flesh are mild.

For the dazed and sweet "first love", he secretly maintained the little secret in his heart like the stupid scholar in every story. Just like the box that he will never open again, the water-tuned song head on that piece of flower paper has already been engraved into his heart, and he can never forget it, and he doesn't need to open it.

He dragged all the way to refusing to start a family, and asked around the families of people surnamed Gu in the capital. He stubbornly thought that such a wonderful poem must have come from the Gu family of the Jiangnan Shi clan, and the scope was much smaller.

This word is obviously thinking of someone, and the person who puts the lamp on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion to pray must be the family.

As for the possibility of being a lover, he didn't want to think about it.

Qi Shao was looking for "Gu Qing" like a crazy demon, he deliberately befriended Xiong Ping, and learned through the county lord of Deyang that all the ladies surnamed Gu in Beijing were beautiful, and there was indeed no one called "Gu Qing".

But he firmly believed that there was such a person, just as he picked up the lamp, and that word card was ironclad proof of her existence.

He wanted to be faster, faster. His daughter's family can't wait, he has been looking for a year without a clue, "Gu Qing" may be fifteen or sixteen years old, and may have reached the age to be married.

If he drags it out any longer, I'm afraid that he will "return Jun Mingzhu to tears, and hate to meet when he is not married".

Qi Shao has simulated in a place where no one is at home again and again, he met "Gu Qing", what should he say to her.

He always felt that he would inquire about her, and he would do everything he could to stay where she was going out, just to finally have a chance to speak to her.

In those days, Qi Shao was like a good year in the wilderness, thinking about those words upside down day and night, and he had to squeeze the bone marrow in those words dry.

Sijun is like flowing water, how can there be a time to be poor.

Qi Shao, who was so "crazy", was finally kicked out of the house by Qi's father and mother, who couldn't stand it, and moved into another private house of the Qi family in Dongcheng.

At this time, he is already twenty-three, and his younger brother is eighteen, although his younger brother doesn't mind at all, but there is still a daughter at home, where can he delay it any longer?

They ordered that if they couldn't find "Gu Qing" within a year, they would let him marry the daughter of his father's best friend, who was a very gentle girl, and would never mind that he had found a daughter named "Gu Qing" everywhere.

The desperate Qi Shao finally knocked on the door of Lu Yuanhao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and went to inquire about the most descendant of the Gu family in Beijing, Lu Shangshu's wife Gu.

He is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, so he naturally knows how much Chu Rui does not want to see the Lu family, but he can't afford to wait any longer.

Lord Lu has a strange temper, but Gu is unexpectedly a very good person to get along with. The Lu family was the middleman, and the relatives who brought him here, Mrs. Lu, all accidentally talked to this Gu family.

She just thought about the time of a stick of incense, and then she remembered a person.

"When I was unmarried, I remember that my cousin had a daughter named Qingniang. She has a quirky personality since she was a child, and she is quite loved by my cousin, but her life is not very good, my cousin died early, and she has been carried by my cousin-in-law. The year you said, she did come to the capital, and she was going to Qingyunguan to be a female crown. ”

"What, to be a female crown?"

"Her mother's marriage for her was not good, and the lady of Qingyunguan was her aunt, so she came to ask for help. She also came to visit me and begged me, but I was married to my daughter, not her own aunt, so I couldn't help with that. ”

Speaking of Qing Niang, she was also embarrassed.

"It's a pity, it's a good boy who looks forward to life between his eyebrows, but Xu's family is really not very good."

"And now?"

Qi Shao shouted "Good job" in his heart, because he felt that no matter what shocking things this "Gu Qing" did, it was normal.

She was supposed to be like a mortal person.

The so-called female crown is a female Taoist. Qingyunguan is a Taoist temple, and disciples can naturally get married, but the woman of the clan took the initiative to ask to be a female crown to avoid marriage, which is no different from slapping others.

Unless the man was really unsightly, he couldn't think of why a weak woman would go all the way to Beijing to ask for the help of an aunt and aunt.

"Later, her aunt invited her to Taoism, and she went back to our Gu family's Yanwu Fort in Jinling to practice."

Gu did not say that her niece's mother had died of illness three years ago, and she was now an orphan girl without a father or mother.

She has been in despair with her family for a long time, even if she is a descendant, it is delusional to marry into a family like the Qi family.

Qi Shao came out of the Lu family and went straight to Zichen Hall to ask for a month's leave. Chu Rui occasionally has a "humane" side, and he is even more kind to his close ministers and trusted people, as soon as he heard that "Gu Qing" had eyebrows, he immediately gave money and asked him to find it quickly.

For more than three years, everyone was curious about what kind of woman "Gu Qing" was, which made him fascinated to such an extent.

Wuzhou, Swallow Wu Fort.

The Gu family's Wu Fort used to be the largest and strongest Wu Fort in Wuzhou, but it was finally destroyed in the war, and most of the Gu family's descendants were also raised, and the rest were raised by the families who were related to each family in the south of the Yangtze River, and then began to rebuild the Wu Fort.

But no matter how you build it, it will not be possible to go back to the previous level.

The family that Gu Qing is wearing now is the great-grandchild of the last patriarch of the Gu family, and it is so depressed that except for a Wu Bao and more than a dozen family members, there are basically some things like calligraphy and painting decorations that cannot be eaten.

Gu Qing didn't know what was wrong, she obviously slept in the duty room, and when she woke up, she went to this ghost place. Dressed as a sixteen-year-old girl, with a mother who has a lung disease and has been coughing, and a room that looks like "Ahhh

What kind of "Da Chu" is the widow of a family, she lost her ancestor at the age of four, lost her father at the age of six, and she relied on the help of relatives in the family to grow up smoothly, and her mother was also from a prominent family, but her father died and cried out of her eyes, and she had a cold and injured her lungs, and she could no longer be a qualified housewife.

Gu Qing was almost sad about her gray hair, she looked through her memories and found that the original body was strangled to death!

And the one who wanted to strangle her was actually her mother who had lung disease and was already terminally ill!

What a mess this is!

She didn't even know how she got by.

There is no money at home, she doesn't know anything, and she is engaged to a terrible family affair

――Can you imagine what it would be like to marry your cousin? My aunt's son wants to marry her, and she also puts on the appearance of "I pity you so my son marries you......

This aunt's family has just emptied the antiques that his father used to keep as a dowry, and her eldest son still has some problems with his head.

Close relatives are married, and there are also visible idiot genes, Gu Qing secretly ran away with the scattered silver and two loyal servants on the night he came.

Her cheap lady didn't know why she was bent on killing her, she also had a wicked aunt who wanted her to marry a child with cerebral palsy she didn't know, and there were more than a dozen people in the family who were waiting for the rice to be cooked......

I rub!

Don't you want to be so miserable!

Although she is kind, there are limits!

Under the guidance of her loyal servant, she disguised herself as a Taoist aunt and went to the capital to find her cousin who married into a prominent family, as well as an aunt who entered the Taoist sect in her early years for help.

Anyway, whether to ask for it or not, that's it, Gu Qing doesn't know where to go.

She brought a lot of silver, and the official road along the way, although the road was hard, and the intestines were about to come out, but she still arrived in the capital and met people smoothly.

Just as she thought, the cousin who married Shangshu didn't want to meddle at all, but her cold-hearted aunt gave her a shelter.

She should be glad that it is still a peaceful and prosperous age, the Gu family has too many old friends, and it is a real noble family, not long after she ran away, there were relatives of the Gu family who heard about this incident sympathized with her plight and went to Beijing to pick her up, and under the interference of the current patriarch, she was canceled that terrible marriage, and her family's wealth was returned.

The day Gu Qing came to the capital was the Mid-Autumn Festival, she responded to the scene and put a river lantern, because she missed the modern days too much, so she drafted a song "Water Tune Song Head" and put it into the water with her real name to chat about lovesickness.

When she was in the capital, she knew that very powerful Mrs. Xinguo. She estimated that this Xin Guotai had crossed over, because she actually tossed out such things as the Three Kingdoms Killing and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and tore apart her mind of wanting to "make a fortune" with this cruel fact.

That's it, she is the national wife, standing at the top of the Great Chu, she is a poor little orphan girl, and if she writes a "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", she may be arrested as a thief.

She still resigned herself to her fate and thought about what she could do, right?

Selling calligraphy and paintings? How many famous books have you plagiarized?

If she went to recognize each other, she should be secretly killed, right?

Make two traversers, if the former has a bad heart, maybe he will really kill her in order to save her "special".

She still didn't gamble, and she couldn't attract the attention of Mrs. Qiu.

She killed her as easily as crushing an ant.

……

It's so hard to survive.

It's still safe to be a Taoist aunt, and the province is casually married.

A few years later.

Qi Shao traveled thousands of miles to Yanzi Wubao, endured the lovesickness and waited until the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The Mid-Autumn Festival wants to worship the moon, the daughter of the Gu family will definitely go to the courtyard to worship the moon and play, even if she is now a Taoist aunt, but her daughters are gone, as the only daughter in the family, this day is also to worship the moon.

He shamelessly found a few good people in the family to take him over the wall to enter the house in the morning, and secretly hid in the rockery in the yard, while slandering that the defense force was too poor, and on the other hand, he was determined to take Gu Qing to the capital under his own protection in order to live in peace.

He had already used His Majesty's people to inquire before, this Gu Qing lady rarely went out on weekdays, but occasionally anonymously wrote some fans and asked her family to go out and sell them for money.

The poems on those fans are all wonderful words, although they appear very rarely, and most of them are sold in farther places, but they are still speculated at a very high price by people who know the goods.

This lady of the Gu family also lives very nourishingly on this, at least she lives very comfortably.

Under the bright moon, Gu Qing walked to the altar surrounded by her family, dressed in goose yellow women's clothes, like a fairy concubine in Qi Shao's eyes.

She picked up a stick of incense, bowed respectfully to the moon, and simply stood up straight, and said in her mouth:

"I beg not to be forced to marry this year, not to be forced to marry next year, not to be forced to marry the year after tomorrow, I am living a good life now, I don't need a man, thank you."

The subordinates who knew the nature of the heroine in the family all smiled, and Qi Shao in the rockery was stunned.

……

What about his fairy concubine?

The author has something to say: Today happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is really providential, to send Qi Shao a daughter-in-law.

I wish you all a happy holiday season, and lovers will eventually become married!

Small Theatre:

Another parallel world.

Li Rui, who married Zhang Suyi, came to invite Qi Shao to enjoy the moon together on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Zhang Suyi casually talked about Faye Wong's "Water Tune Song Head" and sang it.

The two families are now world friends, and they do not shy away from each other, and there is no reason why women can't be hospitable.

As soon as Qi Shao heard this water tune songhead, he immediately asked excitedly.

Zhang Suyi: Ah, this is what my second uncle taught me, and I heard that it was made by a person named Su Shi and Su Zizhan.

Qi Shao: Is it a man?

Zhang Suyi: Of course it's a man, but this song has always been sung by my daughter's family.

Qi Shao: (mad bird) Su Shi, Su Zizhan...... Is it a man?

Is it a man......

Man......

Man......
