Zhan Wenjun sat in the ox cart, his eyes calm and indifferent. Concubine Song turned her head to look at her, and said meaningfully: "Don't say goodbye to Xu Youdao?" ”

Since that night, Zhan Wenjun and Xu You talked through the curtain, the two have never met again, whether in public or private, as if they have become people from two worlds in an instant, the courtyard is deep, nowhere to be found, there is no intersection of eyes, and there is no overlap in the trajectory.

"What should have been said has already been said, what difference does it make between seeing it and not seeing it?"

Concubine Song sighed and said, "Sister, you may hate me, but in the future, you will always understand that I am doing this for your good!" ”

Zhan Wenjun shook his head and said, "Sister blames me, I don't have hatred in my heart, of course, I don't have much joy. It's just that...... It's just that the homeland is hard to leave, and I am reluctant to give up, but it has nothing to do with Xu Langjun. ”

The wide skirt was tied with a lilac waist, which just covered the hands, and at an angle that Song Shenfei couldn't see, her bent fingers tightly grasped the skin under the skirt, and her fingertips turned white because of the force, but she didn't feel a little pain on her body.

Countless times, she wanted to lift the curtain and take another look at the person standing on the side of the road,

Even if you just take another look!

However, this glance was rigidly suppressed by family, worldliness, responsibility and a trace of uncertainty.

It's close at hand, and it's far away!

The car is far away, and the remembrance of the gentleman is unforgettable!

Zhan Wenjun closed his eyes, and there was a squeak of a car rolling through the snow in his ears, the first time he saw him in the guest building, he talked freely in the Mingyu Mountain, looked at each other and smiled when he sat on the lamp, and his snort could be heard when he shouldered his hand.

But these thrilling emotions can't compare to that time in the study, almost uncontrollable emotion!

Pile by pile, scene after scene, flashed quickly but slowly from the depths of my mind, I haven't known each other for a long time, but I seem to have spent a lifetime together.

Xu Lang, cherish!

The convoy gradually moved away, Xu You retracted his gaze, and led everyone to turn around and walk towards Qiantang City. Guo Mian and his entourage wanted to spare Qiantang, pass through Wukang, Linwucheng, and then go north to Dangtu, enter Huaishui and arrive at Jinling, which was exactly the opposite direction of Xu You.

They left two different trails, stamped with mottled snow marks, and spread long east-west, but soon they were covered in snow, and the sky was vast, and crows perched on cold branches, and everything returned to silence and nothingness.

Xu You was halfway through, and suddenly saw a person standing on the side of the road, Xu was standing for a long time, his face was frozen red, he stopped and said in surprise: "Qianqin, why are you here?" ”

Qianqin bit her lip, knelt down with a puff, and held a letter with fire paint in both hands, and said, "This is the letter that Madame asked me to bring to Lang Jun." ”

Xu You took it and looked at the cover, there was no handwriting, I don't know if it was true or not, but Qianqin shouldn't be lying, because there is no point in lying in this matter, he handed the letter to the autumn equinox casually, and then Ling Lushuang helped Qianqin up, and said, "Presumably it's not just for you to send a letter, is there something else?" ”

Qianqin wept and said: "The Sili Mansion wants the Lord to hand over the list of all the owners of the Pavilion, and then hand it over to the county government of origin for control according to their own reasons. And I was born an orphan, and I am a slave, I have no home and no nationality for a long time, and I was named by Meng Xingchun to go to Crouching Tiger Division, if I really go there, I am afraid that there is no second way except death. So there is no way to avoid it, and there is no way to hide, Mrs. took pity on me, not only in addition to my slave status, gave me money and silk, but also found Gu County to dredge me, settled me in Qiantang, and entrusted the lord to inform Meng Xingchun, and finally gave the slave a way to live. ”

Qianqin is in charge of the Ship Pavilion, and she has made outstanding achievements over the years, and even Xu You has been moved by her ability, not to mention Meng Xingchun, a fake assistant who is engaged in intelligence? I wanted to ask Qianqin to go to Crouching Tiger Division by name, not to take people's lives, but to get up to it when I saw it, and wanted to collect it for my own use. However, Qianqin is a little woman, with no money and no power, in a wolf's den and tiger's den like Crouching Tiger Division, no matter how capable she is, it is in vain, and you can imagine what the ending will be.

Xu You knew that she hadn't finished speaking, his face was as usual, and he listened to her next. In fact, he had already guessed a little bit about Qianqin's intention. At the beginning, he disciplined Qianqin several times, but Zhan Wenjun saw it in his eyes and must have understood his intentions, so he pushed the boat down the river and gave him a material that could be made.

"Madame knows that I am alone and miserable, with nothing to rely on in Qiantang, and I will inevitably become the plaything of others for a long time. So before leaving, I was specially ordered to come to Lang Jun...... I know that I used to have a lot of disrespect for Lang Jun, and I still look at my wife's face, thinking that the slave maid is young and ignorant, and does not care about the slave maid. From now on, the slave swears to follow Lang Jun, before and after the saddle, regardless of life and death, once there are two hearts, I am willing to suffer the sin of insects and ants eating bones! ”

Qianqin came from a humble background, but he thought very highly of himself, and suffered many losses after meeting Xu You, not only could he not fight, but he was also very inferior to his knowledge, wisdom and demeanor in dealing with the world, although he was still not convinced in his mouth, but he actually had a little real respect in his heart. So faced with a situation of being at a loss, Zhan Wenjun asked her to choose whether to take refuge in Xu You, almost without thinking about it, and immediately agreed.

She has inherent talents, but a woman, without the support of the family, without the support of her father and brother, can not survive at all in this troubled era, once she leaves the Guo family, she is like a rootless tree, drifting duckweed, and sooner or later she will be swallowed by the waves. Instead of living in the world, it is better to follow Xu You, and maybe one day he will return to the world gate, this pros and cons, Qianqin can still calculate clearly.

"Since you got rid of the slave status, Meng Jiaozuo will no longer come to embarrass you, and Mrs. has given you money, why not buy some farmland, find a kind family to marry, and teach your husband and children in the future, and be happy, isn't it much better than following me through hardships and dangers?"

Qianqin heard Xu You's tone loose, and was overjoyed, and immediately knelt down, bowed to the ground with his forehead, and said: "Life is only a few decades, I would rather be a slave in Langjun's mansion than a fool in the mountains, and live in a mess around the kitchen." ”

"You have a heart, but plainness is a blessing, and wealth may not be true!" Xu You smiled and said, "Well, like you, I can't see through the wealth and glory of this world, so I always have to rely on my own spirit to earn and fight." Speaking of which, we are the same kind of people, I have given myself a chance, and I can't help but give you a chance. Get up, from today onwards, you change your name, and it's called the Winter Solstice! ”

The ancients believed that since the winter solstice, the yang energy of heaven and earth began to grow stronger, representing the beginning of the next cycle and the day of good fortune. Xu You gave the name Qianqin, which means that she should leave the past behind and start from scratch, which not only has the meaning of enlightenment and comfort, but also values and encourages.

Qianqin can pass "Zuo Chuan", naturally understand the truth contained in the winter solstice, two lines of clear tears fell into the snow, Ying Ying said goodbye, and said: "Xie Xiaolang gave the name!" ”

The group braved the snow and walked for a long time before entering the city, staying in an unknown counter-brigade, around the stove, and the three girls of the autumn equinox arranged dinner, Zuo Yan and He Wei sat opposite each other and talked in a low voice. Xu You sat alone in a corner, took out the letter from Zhan Wenjun, stared at it for a long time, and then opened it and took it out, a soft and smooth fish note, and eight lines of beautiful and sparse handwriting came into view.

See the words like meeting:

Weizhi, when you read the letter, we should have been separated from each other, forgive me for not being able to say goodbye to you in person, I can only entrust Qianqin to pass the book on my behalf, no wonder if it is rude. However, with your temperament, I don't think you will care too much about this.

Last night's snow was very heavy, I thought that I would not be able to start tomorrow, and I still had a little joy in my heart, but after all, there was still no way, and the Sili Mansion was very urgent, and my uncle must leave Qiantang within the agreed hour. Actually, all kinds of things, whether to stay or not to stay, is not so important, my obsession, let you know it will feel ridiculous, right?

You are a gentle gentleman, even if you think it is ridiculous, you will not show it, but it also makes it difficult for others to figure out your thoughts. The last time you and I saw each other that day, across the curtain, it was because the concubine was on your side, you were cold and resolute, you should have guessed it, but ...... I'm not sure if that's the case, so I've been nervous for the past few days.

The snow in Qiantang rarely falls so much, perhaps it is also for the sake of separation, every time I think of all kinds of acquaintances, I can't forget it, but people come and go, it is ordinary, it is difficult to get together, it is difficult to say goodbye, and it is also a helpless thing. Today's fruits are different, each on one side, the festival is different at the same time, things are not people, and suddenly there are cold clouds and twilight snow. In the past, I went to the past, the willows were still around, and now I came to think, the rain and snow were falling, and I went to Jinling for thousands of miles, and I worshiped in the morning and evening, in order to pray for the health and longevity of Lang Jun.

Amorton!

Xu You closed the letter, held it to the candle flame, lit it from the lower left corner, and watched as the fish note turned into ashes inch by inch. The three girls looked at each other, but they didn't dare to make a sound, and Zuo Yan also sat silently, just looking at Xu You's eyes with a little concern. He Wei didn't care about these, and said with a smile: "What is written in Mrs. Guo's eight-line book, I thought you were going to 'look at the Buddha and cry like rain', but I didn't expect to be so calm." ”

Eight-line book, because the letter paper has eight lines per page, so since the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the eight-line book has become a synonym for letters. And "Looking at the Buddha, weeping like rain" comes from Mao's poem "The Wind? Yanyan", known as the ancestor of farewell through the ages, is the most sincere and lingering.

"Just a normal greeting!"

A faint sadness flashed in Xu You's eyes, he had affection and lust for Zhan Wenjun, that time the skin was close to each other, if it weren't for the amazing concentration, I was afraid that it would have become a good thing long ago. But aside from love and desire, this kind of liking purely from appreciation is far from reaching the point of holding the hand of the son and growing old with the son, so when it is time to let go, you can let go freely and absolutely.

It's just that when I saw this letter, Zhan Wenjun's pretty face suddenly appeared in front of me.

The car is far away, and the remembrance of the gentleman is unforgettable!

"It's just Jinling, sooner or later, we will set foot in Jinling City, and at that time, it will not be difficult to see Mrs. Guo again." He Wei rarely comforted Xu You, and then handed over a glass of wine.

Xu You took it, and his mouth was sweet and astringent, just like this period of meeting with Zhan Wenjun.

Yes, it's just Jinling, I'll go after all!
