If this Gu County Marquis could have taken office three years earlier, if the thief Gao Xianzhi had ordered the extermination of the Zhaowu Nine Surnames, Gu County Marquis could have been dissuaded and restrained by the side, and if the officials in Anxi were as knowledgeable as Gu County Marquis and knew right from wrong, would all the tragedies not have happened?

If only if.

Today's Zhaowu nine surnames have been scattered, the clansmen are in exile and nowhere to be found, and the remaining clansmen who are reluctant to leave their homeland are also living incognito and living without seeing the light of day.

Delayed justice is nothing more than an explanation given to him by fate.

However, there was an explanation in the end.

"Let's walk around, Qiuzi City has changed a lot this year, and you're going to love this city." The soldier smiled kindly.

The middle-aged man thanked him, Mu Ran turned around, but Gu Qing's name was already deeply imprinted in his mind.

Walking slowly along the main street of Qiuzi City, the man did not pay attention to the crowds of people shuttling through the streets, he just wanted to find a sunny place, sit down and drink a drink, and look at the scenery that he had missed for many years.

Unconsciously, he walked to the door of the Fuzhi Inn, and the familiar figure inside made his Mu Ran's eyes more warm.

She...... Is it a benefactor or a friend?

Walking into the inn, Huangfu Sisi happened to turn around, the two looked at each other, and then a smile bloomed on the corner of Huangfu Sisi's mouth.

"See the pardon?" Huangfu Sisi asked.

The man nodded, looking around awkwardly, wondering whether he should sit down or not.

"It's nice to sit there, there's sunshine there, and it's nice to bask in the sun." Huangfu Sisi pointed to a secluded spot on the street.

The man walked over and sat down.

Huangfu Sisi was still busy for a while, and after greeting the other customers in the store, he brought a jar of wine and sat opposite him.

Lifting the mud seal, the amber liquor gurgled into the wine cup, and the man swallowed his saliva, raised his glass and drank it all, and then exhaled a long breath, and his expression was much calmer.

Huangfu Sisi poured him again.

The man drank another glass and suddenly asked, "Has anything happened to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate?" ”

Huangfu Sisi didn't answer and asked, "How do you know?" ”

"The name of the deputy envoy of the festival should not appear in the inscription." The man was concise and to the point.

Huangfu Sisi nodded: "Well, Gao Xianzhi's power was restrained by Gu Qing, and now all the power of the Anxi Protectorate is in Gu Qing's hands." ”

The pupils in the man's eyes contracted suddenly: "Is it Gu Xianhou who personally seized power, or is it ...... What does Chang'an mean? ”

Huangfu thought for a while and said, "It's Chang'an's meaning, but with Gu Qing's character, he must not be willing to be restrained." ”

The man's eyelids jumped: "Tang Tianzi is suspicious of Gao Xianzhi?" ”

Huangfu Sisi smiled bitterly: "I'm a woman who runs an inn, you ask me this, how do I know?" However, Gu Qing and I are friends, and it can be seen from his words and deeds that Tang Tianzi should be dissatisfied with Gao Xianzhi, and the root of his dissatisfaction may be the destruction of Zhaowu Jiu three years ago, and the majesty of the Tang army was greatly reduced by the Battle of Talas. ”

The man was silent for a long time, and sighed: "It's too late, if Tang Tianzi could have seen everything a few years earlier, why would my Zhaowu Jiu surname suffer from this catastrophe......"

Huangfu Sisi said in a low voice: "For you, it is a catastrophe to destroy the country and destroy the family, and for the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, it is just a small mistake that was accidentally made, and now it is just a small mistake that has been corrected." ”

The man sneered: "Yes, in the eyes of others, what is it to destroy the country and destroy the family?" The strength of the Tang Dynasty depends on the destruction of the country and the destruction of the family, so as to have today's glory. And for those who are in exile like us, a pardon is a rain from heaven. ”

Huangfu Sisi frowned: "You can have hatred, but don't involve irrelevant people, Gu Qing has helped you, and your hatred should not be directed at him." ”

The man lowered his head and said, "Will Gao Xianzhi be transferred out of Anxi?" Will the Son of Heaven punish him? ”

Huangfu Sisi shook his head: "He will be transferred out of Anxi, but he will not be punished, and the Son of Heaven will give him an official." ”

At the mention of Gao Xianzhi's name, the man's breathing was much shorter, his eyes were red and he looked at the street, and his clenched fists trembled with force.

Huangfu Sisi stared at his eyes and said slowly, "Have you thought clearly?" Do you continue to take revenge, find an opportunity to assassinate Gao Xianzhi, or live in peace? ”

"My father and brother, my clansmen, all died under the sword of the Tang Army, and they don't share the hatred of the sky, how can they not take revenge?" The man gritted his teeth.

Huangfu Sisi was not surprised by his answer, and said calmly: "Yes, but I can't help you, and if you take revenge, the pardon of the Zhaowu nine surnames will be canceled, and from then on, the Tang army will hunt down and kill the people of the Zhaowu nine surnames year after year, and the mistakes made by Gao Xianzhi are not wrong, it is your Zhaowu nine surnames who bring about their own destruction." ”

"This morning, more than 20 clansmen with the surname Zhaowu Jiu have just been released from the camp outside the city, which was ordered by Gu Qing. He is willing to give you a way to live, and you will block the way of life yourself, no wonder others. ”

The man was silent for a long time, and said softly: "I want to see that Gu County Marquis." ”

Huangfu Sisi's expression suddenly appeared a faint flush, his eyes looked away strangely, and he said uncomfortably: "It may take a few days." ”

"Why?"

Huangfu Sisi pursed his lips, wanted to laugh, but held back, and smiled with a little shyness: "He, he's been a little afraid of me recently, and he may not dare to see me, wait for his hypocrisy to pass, you can live in my inn with peace of mind, and wait for him to take the initiative to see you." ”

…………

Chang'an City.

Winter goes to spring, the snow melts and the flowers bloom, and there are many beautiful people by the Weishui River.

Just after the New Year, Chang'an City has been able to feel the slightest spring, the Weishui River by the tourists gradually increased, hundreds of people and scholars with their families, carrying simple snacks to the riverside grass, spread out a cloth, take off the shoes, the family happily lay on the cloth, feel the long-lost spring sun shining on the body.

The carriages of the powerful families drove out of the city in groups, and the servants hurriedly followed the master's carriage all the way to trot, and when they arrived at the Weishui River, they found a beautiful grassland to circle up, and the daughters of the powerful people felt the spring light in the meadow where they felt the spring light like the people.

Zhang Huaijin pestered Zhang Huaiyu for several days, and Zhang Huaiyu had no choice but to agree to accompany her out of the city.

The carriage and horse honor guard in Honglu Temple's mansion was quite low-key, and the two carriages with a few maids and servants went out of the city in this ordinary way.

Zhang Huaijin sat in the carriage, holding Zhang Huaiyu's arm, curiously lifting the curtain of the carriage from time to time, looking at the crowds of pedestrians on the street, and couldn't help but smile happily.

"I haven't been out for a long time, Brother Gu is not here, Chang'an City is not very interesting, let's have fun with Brother Gu, we went to the street to eat barbecue, drink grape brew, and kicked someone into Qujiang Pond......" Zhang Huaijin giggled, but there was a lovesickness in his eyes.

Zhang Huaiyu said in surprise: "Who did you kick into Qujiang Pond?" ”

Zhang Huaijin laughed out loud regardless of his demeanor, and only after laughing enough did he attach it to Zhang Huaiyu's ear and quietly say a name.

Rao is Zhang Huaiyu, who has been through the wind and waves for a long time, and he can't help but tremble at this moment.

"You, you...... What a nonsense! ”

Zhang Huaijin said with a smile: "Brother Gu kicked it, I hid far away, and Sister Gu scolded him if she wanted to scold." ”

Zhang Huaiyu couldn't cry and laughed: "The prime minister of the court, you are really ......"

After speaking, Zhang Huaiyu immediately shut up, sank his face and said coldly: "This matter is rotten in the stomach from now on, and no one is allowed to say it, understand?" Otherwise, it will bring a big disaster to Brother Gu, and there will be one more strong enemy for nothing. ”

Zhang Huaijin nodded hurriedly: "I only said to Sister A, I never said it to anyone, Sister Ah will not betray me." ”

Zhang Huaiyu snorted and said, "You are so nonsense, your Brother Gu will be killed by you sooner or later." ”

"No, no, no, I quietly went to the Taoist temple to calculate, I ordered Gewangfu." Zhang Huaijin said triumphantly.

The carriage has arrived at the Weishui River, the two sisters got out of the carriage and found a secluded place, the maid spread cloth and thin blankets for them, Zhang Huaiyu sat cross-legged on it, took out a book to read, Zhang Huaijin couldn't help but shake her arm in disappointment and said: "Sister, you read again, read again!" finally came out with me, how could I waste a good spring. ”

Zhang Huaiyu put away the book helplessly, and was about to say something, when suddenly someone in front of him said loudly: "It's the princess's car!" ”

The sisters turned their heads to look, only to see a team of Yulin Guard knights calmly riding their horses, and chose a place not far from the sisters to fence it off, and then under the escort of many palace maids and eunuchs, the princess's Luan drove slowly stopped, and Princess Wanchun walked out of Luan with the support of the palace maid.

After Zhang Huaijin saw Princess Wanchun's face clearly, his eyes suddenly widened, and he shook Zhang Huaiyu's arm vigorously with a look of caution: "Sister, it's that bad woman!" Bad woman, bad woman! ”

Zhang Huaiyu said: "Shut up! They are all here to go out, each does not offend each other, you don't shout, you are heard by the princess's honor guard, beware of the disaster of prison. ”

Princess Wanchun got off the Luan car, walked to the Weishui River under the escort of Yu Linwei, looked at the river alone and was stunned, for a long time, Yu Linwei laid a scarlet carpet for her, and surrounded by a few zhang Fang Yuan with a screen to isolate from the idle tourists.

When she was about to put on the last screen, Wan Chun's eyes glanced inadvertently, and she met Zhang Huaijin's hostile gaze, Wan Chun was stunned for a moment, and then saw Zhang Huaiyu next to her clearly.

Zhang Huaiyu is still in white clothes and white skirts, with a cold appearance that has no quarrel with the world, standing calmly in the distance, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.

Wan Chun's eyes narrowed, his nostrils unconsciously tilted up, and he glared at them proudly with two small holes.

Hooked his finger at the palace maid next to him, Wan Chun whispered a few words, the palace maid bowed and retreated, walked out of the screen, came to Sister Zhang Huaiyu, and said politely: "Two, Her Royal Highness the princess is invited." ”

Zhang Huaijin said angrily: "Don't go woo......"

Before he finished speaking, he was covered by Zhang Huaiyu.

"Lead the way." Zhang Huaiyu said succinctly to the palace maid.

After a brief moment last time, this is the second time the three girls have met.

Passing through Yu Linwei's heavy guard circle, the Zhang sisters came to Princess Wanchun to salute in front of her, Zhang Huaijin unwillingly bent down, glanced at Wanchun imperceptibly, and then stood beside Zhang Huaiyu to brew emotions.

Wan Chun looked at Zhang Huaiyu carefully, from his face to his neck, from his skin to his chest and legs, and then unconsciously lowered his head to look at himself, and suddenly felt a little inferior.

"What a shameless disciple who only likes women with big breasts? Is it a big boobs? Wan Chun gritted his teeth and wondered.
