Gu Qing stayed in Princess Yuzhen's Turin Taoist Temple.

This time I came to the Taoist temple to catch ducks on the shelves, firstly, because on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, Princess Wanchun blocked the words to this part, and had to come, and secondly, Gu Qing wanted to avoid the limelight, and it was better to keep a low profile after being the prime minister of the court, and it was better to stay away.

If the prime minister sends someone to hunt him down, then bravely throw himself into the arms of Princess Wanchun and let her protect herself.

Perfect!

That night, Princess Yuzhen set up a banquet to entertain Gu Qing. The royal night banquet is naturally extravagant, from wine and food to singing and dancing, it is the most luxurious in the world, and even the glass of wine is a colorful glass cup.

The glazed cup is just a rough artificial crystal in the eyes of later generations, but it is very valuable in today's era, the glaze has been fired as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the earliest record of the glaze firing in the Tang Dynasty is in a book called "Du Yizhi", which records that during the Kaiyuan period, Zizhou of the Tang Dynasty was famous for producing glaze.

After Gu Qing sat down, he stared at the glass cup in front of him, and took it up from time to time to look at it carefully.

Glass is different from glass, glass is not transparent, and the firing method is simple, if you can get the secret recipe for firing glass, you must be able to burn the most transparent glass with your own ability, not only can you sell it for money, but also can you create a pair of reading glasses for Zhang Jiuzhang, there are two princesses in front of you, I don't know if they can get the secret recipe for glass firing?

Princess Yuzhen's soft voice in the hall interrupted Gu Qing's contemplation, Gu Qing looked up, and saw Princess Yuzhen looking at him with a smile, Gu Qing hurriedly got up and said, "The minister is distracted, Your Highness forgive me." ”

Princess Yuzhen shook her head, pointed to the two guests who were late at the banquet, and said: "Meet a new friend, this tall man is named Wang Wei, the word Maha, the official residence is in the Ministry of Langzhong, and the other is named Chao Heng, who is an envoy to the Tang Dynasty from Japan, who has been an official in the Tang Dynasty for many years, and has served as a regular attendant of the left scattered cavalry. ”

Gu Qing was taken aback, raised his eyes and looked over. The tall Wang Wei was thin, his white shirt was like snow, his expression was cold and lonely, and there was an unapproachable sense of distance. The other Chao Heng was a little shorter and darker-skinned, but he had a warm smile on his face, and when he met Gu Qing's eyes, Chao Heng also bowed slightly to show politeness.

Gu Qing stood up and saluted the two: "Your Majesty Gu Qing, meet the two." The names of the two have been admired for a long time, and they can see it today, and they are fortunate to have three lives. ”

Wang Wei nodded at him, the corners of his mouth tugged, and he smiled. Chao Heng smiled and said: "I have heard for a long time that there is a young talent in Chang'an City, and "Guanli Twelve Niang Dancing Sword Weapons" is magnificent, like thunder, and it is thought-provoking, but I have read it many times, and I saw Gu Changshi today, and sure enough, people are like his poems, fortunately. ”

Wang Wei said slowly: "I heard that Gu Changshi is from Shuzhou? ”

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes." ”

"I heard that Li Taibai also traveled in Shuzhou, and he has a good relationship with you?"

"Yes."

Wang Wei stared at Gu Qing's face and said, "Do you drink alcohol when you're together?" ”

"Every drink will be drunk."

Wang Wei sighed abruptly: "Since you are drinking, why don't you kill him?" How good it is to get that drunkard drunk in an urn......"

Gu Qing was stunned: WHAT?

Princess Yuzhen sneered, and then couldn't help but laugh.

"Okay, you and Taibai are both people who are in charge of the poetry of the world, why bother with a little grudge back then?"

Wang Wei snorted with a cold face and did not speak.

Gu Qing's eyes flashed with gossip. Li Bai and Wang Wei died and did not get along, legend has it that the two have a deep grievance, what is the reason why the two turned against each other, there is no record of the official history, maybe it is the literati who are light, maybe it is the conflict of beliefs, Li Bai believes in the Tao, Wang Wei believes in Buddhism, and it is said that it is because of Princess Yuzhen, legend has it that there was a scandal between Wang Wei and Princess Yuzhen, and the relationship is a little unclear......

No matter what kind of inside story it is, it's very interesting, should the next issue of the gossip newspaper do you want to make a series of reports, about what you have to say about Li Bai and Wang Wei?

The banquet is just an ordinary banquet, there is no special content, eating, drinking, singing and dancing blow each other, Gu Qing and Princess Wanchun are of the same age, in order to avoid suspicion, Gu Qing has less interaction with her, but frequently toasts with Wang Wei and Chao Heng.

For historical celebrities, Gu Qing still has a lot of respect, but Wang Wei looks quite serious and does not smile, Gu Qing can see that Wang Wei's unsmiling is not aimed at him, but in this nature, Gu Qing does not care, and takes the initiative to get close to Wang Wei with a smile.

The fist is afraid of being young, and the wine is also afraid of being young, and it didn't take long for Wang Wei to be a little dizzy, Gu Qing saw that his body was shaky, and he couldn't bear to make this poet and Buddha stupid, so he turned to Chao Heng.

Chao Heng's temper is very good, with a warm smile on his face, a Japanese, the etiquette at the royal night banquet is more exquisite than the local people of the Tang Dynasty, all drinking must first be dressed to greet the host, and then cover his mouth with his sleeves, and drink it quietly.

To be honest, Gu Qing is still a little uncomfortable with the Japanese, after all, from the era of his previous life, in the historical knowledge he learned from elementary school, he has a deep hatred for Japan, although he knows that he has nothing to do with this Chao Heng, but Gu Qing is uncomfortable when he hears the word Japanese, so he endured the discomfort and drank a few cups with Chao Heng.

The banquet was gone, and the guests and hosts were happy.

Gu Qing helped the stumbling Wang Wei to walk to the backyard cottage, Princess Yuzhen's arrangement was quite heartwarming, and Gu Qing's residence was arranged next door to Wang Wei and Chao Heng, both of them were separate small courtyards, and they smelled each other.

Wang Wei was a little drunk, his steps were slow, Gu Qing helped him, and asked ill-intentionedly: "Dare to ask Mr. Maha, what ......is the grievance between you and Li Taibai?"

Before he finished speaking, Wang Wei paused, suddenly turned blue, and ran to the side of the road and vomited.

Gu Qing looked at each other in amazement, was this drunk or was he disgusted and vomited when he heard Li Bai's name?

stepped forward and gently patted Wang Wei on the back, Wang Wei vomited for a long time before stopping, and looked up to the sky and burped a lengthy wine, the sour taste was ......

Gu Qing resisted the urge to vomit too, and helped Wang Wei to stare at his face expectantly.

I've asked and I've spit, I've vomited, it's time to say something dry, right? Otherwise, why did you pour him so hard tonight? Isn't it just waiting for him to drink and spit out the truth? These are all materials for the next issue of the gossip newspaper.

Who knew that after Wang Wei stumbled for a moment, he turned his head and glared at Gu Qing viciously, and said coldly: "I heard that on the day of the banquet held by His Royal Highness the Prince during the Double Ninth Festival, you ridiculed the old man's 'one less person in the dogwood' in public?" ”

"Huh?" Gu Qing was stunned.

"Yes and no?"

Gu Qing immediately regained his composure, and said without changing his face: "No, Mr. Maha misunderstood me deeply. The joke about your poem is that the East Palace is dedicated to the Hanlin Imperial Edict Li Mi, and the Maiko sitting next to him at that time was named 'Juji', and if Mr. Maha doesn't believe it, you can ask the people who were there at the time. ”

Wang Weihu said suspiciously: "It's really not you?" ”

Gu Qing sincerely met his gaze: "It's definitely me, Mr. Maha looks at me sincerely, clear and innocent, like a child, can a child lie?" No. ”

Wang Wei snorted: "Where do you look like a child with no skin and no face?" ”

After a pause, Wang Wei said angrily again: "If it is really Li Mi, the old man will never spare him, a good poem of homesickness and brotherhood has been interpreted by him so improperly, the old man wants to seek justice with him." ”

Gu Qing had a serious face: "You must seek justice!" On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, I have severely condemned him, Mr. Maha's poems are the best in the world, the poems are far-reaching, profound meaning, Li Taibai can not reach, Shilin poetry is regarded as a masterpiece, how can Li Mi be so slanderous of Mr. Masterpiece? When Mr. Maha was crusading against Li Mi, I would like to wave the flag and shout for Mr. Maha and cheer for him. ”

Gu Qing's sycophants are nothing new, but one of the sentences "Li Taibai can't reach it" scratched Wang Wei's itch, Wang Wei couldn't help but look at Gu Qing at this time, and nodded slightly with a smile.

"It seems that the old man misunderstood you, the old man is drunk, drunk and talking nonsense, don't take it to heart."

Gu Qing smiled bitterly: "Those who are clear are self-purifying, why are they afraid of dust?" I have been misunderstood by the world many times, and I don't care about one more incident, Mr. Maha, don't blame yourself. ”

Wang Wei looked at him, patted his hand gently, and sighed: "He is indeed a good boy, the young man is famous but not arrogant, he still has a humble and respectful color, and the old man was not as good as you back then." The poems you composed, the old man has also read them repeatedly, and he is really shocked, these days of living in the Taoist temple, if you may as well come to the old man's residence in your spare time, you and I will discuss the poems, isn't it beautiful. ”

Gu Qing responded with a smile.

Coughing twice uncomfortably, Wang Wei looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so he whispered: "Especially the poem you made for the concubine Niangniang, which praised the beauty of the concubine Niangniang, the old man was especially amazing, his poetry was beautiful and elegant, it was rare to be able to close the rhyme, although a little shameless, but the old man benefited a lot from reading, you have time to teach the old man how to praise people in the verses, and the old man will also make a poem for Her Royal Highness Princess Yuzhen in the future......

Gu Qing suddenly let out a long sigh, and Wang Wei's face turned red, and he looked away with a dry cough.

Gu Qing approached Wang Wei and said in a low voice: "There is a ...... between you and Li Taibai and Princess Yuzhen."

Wang Wei suddenly stumbled under his feet, and he was in pain: "Ah, the old man is really drunk, drunk......"

After saying goodbye, Wang Wei didn't say anything goodbye, and stumbled back to his yard alone.

Gu Qing stood alone on the noisy path of the cold wind and began to reflect on today's life.

easily shook off the pot with superb acting skills, promised to teach Wang Wei how to praise women, promised to talk with him about poetry, and finally Wang Wei got drunk and escaped......

So, what did Gu Qing get? What about the inside story between Princess Li Baiyuzhen and Wang Wei?

At this moment, Gu Qing felt that he really looked like a child, like a helpless child who had been deceived by an adult into taking away a lollipop.

…………

Shuzhou, Qingcheng County, Shiqiao Village.

Zhang Huaiyu has lived in Shiqiao Village for more than half a year, since Gu Qing left, she moved into Gu Qing's house, the people in the village take it for granted, in their eyes, Zhang Huaiyu is already Gu Qing's mother-in-law, mother-in-law lives in her own man's house, isn't it a matter of course?

In the past six months, Zhang Huaiyu has lived a very fulfilling life, and he has never been fulfilled in this life.

The chivalrous woman Yicheng went down the mountain, and after shoveling a few grievances, she felt tired, so she returned to the mountains and forests and lived a life like a peasant woman among the green mountains and green waters.

Don't think about your messy family, don't care how your family ignores you, after meeting Gu Qing, Zhang Huaiyu gradually understood how to live a dull and peaceful life, and gradually understood that only by living for yourself in this life can you live a solid life.

Zhang Huaiyu's cooking skills are very bad, after Gu Qing left, she tried to cook by herself, but unfortunately the things she made were too unpalatable, Zhang Huaiyu tried twice and gave up, she found that cooking by herself was equivalent to acute suicide, and she died once.

Later, Zhang Huaiyu lived a life of eating hundreds of meals, every time it was time to eat, the villagers warmly invited her to eat at their own house, Zhang Huaiyu ate almost the whole village, and finally concluded that the food of Xiu'er's mother and daughter's house was the most suitable for her appetite, so she decided to partner in Xiu'er's house, and threw a piece of silver cake to the mother and daughter as food expenses, the mother and daughter refused to accept it, and knelt down for her, Zhang Huaiyu still insisted on giving.

Life in Shiqiao Village is as easy as a vacation, the porcelain kiln on the mountain does not need her to interfere, they have Feng Aweng to take care of it, Zhang Huaiyu's daily activity is to walk around the forest around the mountain village after dinner, and then check whether the porcelain kiln fence is loose.

Later, Zhang Huaiyu found that Feng Aweng was teaching the teenagers in the village to practice and array, she watched it with great interest for a few days, corrected some incorrect movements, and finally simply appointed himself as the head of the sect, and Feng Aweng taught the teenagers to practice, Feng Aweng taught the battlefield formation and joint attack technique, Zhang Huaiyu taught personal guns, sticks and weapons skills, the two of them were both the head of the sect, and the teenagers were trained to be worse than death.

Not only the drill, but also the village school Zhang Huaiyu did not let go. Although she is the daughter of a concubine, she is the child of the prime minister after all, and Zhang Huaiyu is better than the scholars in the school in terms of knowledge, poetry, and articles. So the teenagers had to be driven into the school by Zhang Huaiyu after daily drills and forced to read and write.

Zhang Huaiyu is like a teaching director, carrying a stick in his hand to inspect back and forth, and found that there is a distraction to come forward is a stick education, the teenagers tried to resist together, but the force value is too far apart, and the resistance was ruthlessly suppressed by Zhang Huaiyu, since then Zhang Huaiyu has established absolute authority in the hearts of the teenagers in Shiqiao Village, and the majesty is not inferior to Gu Qing's status in the village.

For most of the year, Zhang Huaiyu spent this way.

In the afternoon, the weather is a little gloomy, the mountain village in winter is particularly cold, in the winter season, the farming is closed, the porcelain kiln on the mountainside is still in full swing, and the women and children under the mountain are at home, burning charcoal fire around and talking about the shortcomings of the east and west families.

Zhang Huaiyu was dressed as a peasant woman, her waterfall-like black hair was tied up in a bun, wrapped in a cyan cloth towel, she was sitting quietly roasting the fire in the hall, and Feng Aweng next to her looked cautious and worried, and stopped talking.

"Ah Weng has something to say quickly, my patience is limited." Zhang Huaiyu's tone was indifferent.

Feng Aweng grinned, he was used to Zhang Huaiyu's indifferent nature, at first he only thought that this girl was unapproachable, but after a long time of contact, he found that she was actually cold on the outside and hot on the inside, if he didn't care about her indifferent attitude on the surface, she was actually a very good girl.

"Uh, Huaiyu, it's a little cold on the mountain today, and it's winter when you speak, those boys in the village ask the old man to ask you for a favor, don't you have to practice today? Let the boys rest for a day. ”

Zhang Huaiyu said expressionlessly: "No, I will start practicing in half an hour, rain or shine." ”

Feng Aweng smiled bitterly: "In fact, when I practiced those boys, it was because there were people in the porcelain kiln who coveted it, and I was afraid that the gangsters in the village would be powerless to resist, so it was a move to save myself, and now the porcelain kiln has been listed as a tribute kiln, and no one in the entire Shuzhou dares to touch our porcelain kiln for half a minute, according to the old man, those boys don't need to ......practice."

Zhang Huaiyu turned his head to look at Feng Aweng, and said lightly: "Aweng, if you look at the drill like this, I have to say that Gu Qing was not a person at the beginning." ”

Feng Aweng was stunned and said, "Why? ”

"When Gu Qing asked you to train the young people in the village, was it just to protect the porcelain kiln?"

"Or else? And for what? ”

Zhang Huaiyu sighed: "Of course it's more than that, what Shiqiao Village was like at the beginning, and what Gu Qing looked like after setting up a porcelain kiln, Ah Weng should know best." Over the past year or so, the lives of the women and children in the village have been getting better and better, right? Don't worry about making a living anymore, right? ”

Feng Aweng said blankly: "Yes, the more you go, the better." ”

"Life is good, don't forget who made you live a good life."

"Of course it's Gu Qing, it's just ...... What does this have to do with drills? ”

Zhang Huaiyu said lightly: "Gu Qingyuan is an official in Chang'an, but the danger of officialdom, you can't imagine, maybe one day he will be calculated, he will be deposed, and he will return to Shiqiao Village in embarrassment, at that time, Shiqiao Village is still his home, still his backing, and his last fortress and retreat." If he wants to rise again, Shiqiao Village can give him everything, from strategists to martial artists, he can be driven by him......"

Staring at Feng Aweng's face, Zhang Huaiyu's tone gradually increased: "Why did Gu Qing practice in the first place? Why do we need to run schools? Ah Weng thought he was just for the porcelain kiln? Why didn't I follow Gu Qing to Chang'an, but stay in the village? Ah Weng thinks I'm just here to enjoy the ordinary life in the mountain village? ”

With a sigh, Zhang Huaiyu's eyes looked at the mountains and forests stacked on top of each other outside the house, and said, "Gu Qing, he is a person with great ambitions, and his ambitions have never been told to anyone, but I seem to be able to vaguely guess some." No matter what he wants to do in the future, at least we must run Shiqiao Village well, run it into an impregnable fortress, let Gu Qing act in Chang'an without worries, and let him know that the worst result is just to return to Shiqiao Village, and Shiqiao Village has everything he needs to recover, from money to talents, and even ...... Armed forces capable of protecting him. ”

Feng Aweng was stunned, then broke out in a cold sweat, and said with a wry smile: "The old man almost failed Gu Qing, it was my fault. Today, I know Gu Qing's intentions, alas, wouldn't it be good to tell me no? ”

patting the lame leg, Feng Aweng stood up and said, "Huaiyu, don't worry, the old man understands." I now instruct that from this day on, whether it is training or learning, it must be rain or shine, and it is necessary to practice and learn more. If Gu Qing can come back, I can teach him to see the weather in our Shiqiao Village, it doesn't matter if he touches the mold outside, he still wants something when he comes back. ”

Feng Aweng limped away, Zhang Huaiyu felt a little cold, stretched out his hand to approach the charcoal fire, still looked at the mountains in the distance in distraction, and muttered: "I hope ...... You won't come back embarrassed one day. ”
