Gu Yun had just finished handling official business, and before he had time to take off his official uniform, he heard his subordinates report that Xu You was visiting. Lianhua, the maid beside him, was cleaning his face and said with a smile: "Good Xu Lang, didn't you count the hours to come?" It's not enough to catch your breath......"

Gu Yun sneered: "If he wants to come, he will come, where is the time counted?" ”

Before the words fell, Xu You pushed the door in and said, "It turns out that Feiqing also loves to arrange people behind him, but I underestimated you!" ”

Gu Yun laughed, cleaned his face, asked Xu You to sit at will, and then took off his official uniform in front of him, changed into civilian clothes, and sat comfortably cross-legged opposite.

Three years have made Gu Yun change a lot, and between his demeanor and Gu Pan, he has initially possessed the majesty and momentum of the people in the official mansion, but what has not changed is the deep friendship with Xu You, and he can change his clothes in person, which is the best evidence.

"Weizhi, the imperial court's amnesty is imminent, the government has too many things to deal with, I'm tired to death these days, you really don't plan to come out of the mountain to help me?"

Gu Yun once mentioned to Xu You that once the amnesty is granted and the scholarly status is restored, Xu You can be recruited to Fuzhou to be an official first, and the position may be lower, but as long as Dazhongzheng is re-established a year later, he can be promoted in his official career.

Compared with filial piety and talent, this is also a shortcut to the south.

However, Xu You had no intention of pursuing a career and politely rejected Gu Yun's proposal, but he did not give up, and as soon as they met today, he couldn't wait to bring up the old things again.

"No, handling government affairs is not my forte, and I try my best to do it, I am afraid that I will miss Feiqing and the people."

Xu You smiled and expressed his refusal again, Gu Yun regretted it, but he would not force him to do something he didn't want to do, and said, "Okay, this matter will be discussed later, have you eaten?" If you don't, eat a little with me, I'm really hungry......"

After three rounds of drinking, Xu You put down the glass, pondered the words, and said, "Feiqing, I came today to tell you something." ”

"Say, be polite to me." Gu Yun still kept chopsticks, stuffing food in his mouth, after knowing Xu You, he had already forgotten about the admonition of not saying a word, how comfortable he was, anyway, he wouldn't mind.

After waiting for a while, he didn't hear Xu You speak, Gu Yun raised his head suspiciously, looked at his expression, put down his chopsticks, sat up straight involuntarily, and said, "What's the matter, I'm listening!" ”

"After last year, Zhan Hong and I traveled to Longshi Mountain and met a person who claimed to be Shi Qiyu, wearing a curtain fence on his head and not seeing his face. Later, I met again on the night of Shangyuan, and I traveled to the lamp market together, and the conversation was quite deed, and I got along. After that, there was no more news, until today, when I received his greetings, so I went to the banks of the Jinfan River......"

"Huh? Jin Pan River, Taoxuan? ”

"Tao Xuan? A good name, it was also in the 10,000 peach forests that I learned that the so-called Shi Qiyu turned out to be Zhang Xuanji of the Zhang family! ”

Gu Yun has always been a little infatuated, and when he heard this, he didn't understand, and said with a smile: "That peach forest is the property of the Zhang family, I know it, but I don't know that Zhang Xuanji actually lives there." ”

Xu You paused, with his eloquence and wisdom, he didn't know how to mention it, after all, such a matter of digging into the corner of the brother's wall was not glorious in any era, and said: "When I was in Qiantang, I heard you mention that Zhang Xuanji has a marriage contract with you......"

"Uh, I understand, you have a heart for Zhang Xuan, but I'm afraid you're sorry for me, aren't you?" Gu Yun laughed at the desk, and then pointed at Xu You and sighed: "You, you, I often tell people that Weizhi is a heavenly immortal, and there is no one in the world who can compare. ”

Xu You smiled bitterly and said: "It's easier said than done, how much is bound in the world, who can really be at ease?" ”

"Yes, in fact, people live for a lifetime, and it's really boring!" Gu Yun has always dreamed of leisurely mountains and forests, reading and writing, playing the piano and painting, and then calling friends and friends, drinking to the moon, which is the joy of life. Helplessly burdened by the family, for the sake of a hundred generations, you must come out to mix in the career, keep climbing and fighting, so that you can rely on each other in the future, and it is reasonable to be depressed.

Both of them felt excited, and sat opposite each other for a while, drinking glass after glass, until they were slightly drunk, Gu Yun picked up the wine glass again, raised his head and drank it all, and said: "I've been too busy lately, and we rarely meet, I have always forgotten to tell you about this, the eldest mother felt the disaster of the Yi clan with the surname of Huiji, and made up her mind to urge me to get married as soon as possible, so five days ago, I forced my father and Zhang Sima to dissolve the marriage contract, and when I was ready to find another good time, I proposed to Lu Weiyang of the Lu family." If nothing else, you'll be able to drink my wine by March next year at the latest. ”

He got up and moved to Xu You's side, hugged his shoulders, drunkenness surged, and smirked: "Weizhi, you have also seen Zhang Xuanji's appearance, this woman is very different, I admire it very much." But half of the pretty face is ruined in the tire marks, which is terrifying and makes people afraid. There is no one around today, I will say a word of confidant, if there is no such scary fetal marks, Zhang Xuanji can be a good match for the micro, but you must think clearly, marrying a wife is not making friends, marriage is not an association, get along day and night in the future, share the same bed, there will always be a time to look at each other and get tired, and it will be too late to regret it. ”

"Zheng Xuan's interpretation of "Zhou Li", the woman's appearance is graceful, and she doesn't have to be beautiful...... Xu You said with a smile, and said seriously: "Feiqing, thank you!" ”

Gu Yun patted him on the shoulder heavily and said, "What are these words!" I have no affection for Zhang Xuanji, and the marriage contract is just a joke from my fathers. Poetry and clouds: How to take a wife, the bandit can't be matched. We can't count without the six courtesies, and we can't take it seriously. But as a close friend, I still advise you to think twice, after all, with a slight character article, it is not difficult to find a girl with good looks and moral integrity......"

"Let it be, it's too early to discuss this." Xu You drank another glass of wine, got up and said, "Speaking of this, my mood is much more relaxed, you are tired of a busy day, rest early, and I will go back too." ”

"Okay, you can rest early, too!" Gu Yun sent Xu You to the gate of the mansion, and when he turned around, he suddenly remembered something, and said, "I heard that the reward you asked the court for is only one Mingyu Mountain?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?"

Gu Yun said with a smile: "The princes of the court praised Wei Zhi a lot, saying that you are not arrogant and can be an example for others. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Ha, because someone is not satisfied with the reward, and asks for a knighthood. Although the lord met his request, the ministers were quite criticized, and the imperial historians of the Imperial Historical Observatory were full of strength and were ready to find him trouble. ”

Gu Yunshen said mysteriously: "Compared with the two, the slight nature is more valued by the temple. Don't worry, just a Ming Jade Mountain, how can it be worthy of the immortal merit of the micro, the court must have another reward. ”

With Ming Yushan, it is enough, as for the rest, Xu You really didn't think about it, and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait for good news!" ”

When the moon is bright and the breeze is coming, the courtyard is already cool in early autumn. Xu You sat on the stone bench of the octagonal pavilion and pondered quietly. He finally understood why Zhang Xuanji had known his residence in Wu County until today. It was because she was not bound by the marriage contract five days ago, and she could rest assured that she could boldly pursue the lover she wanted in her heart, Xu You's hesitation in the peach forest not only despised her character, but also despised her mind.

Yes, if he hadn't had a marriage contract with Gu Yun, how could Zhang Xuanji take off his veil so easily and show his true face? After all, in that period of more than a year, she had countless reasons and legitimate excuses to come to see her, but she held back all of them.

Xu You was very remorseful.

With clothes in hand, she stood silently outside the gazebo, with some doubts in her heart. Since following Xu You, it is rare to see him so complicated, tossing and turning, and it seems that it is difficult to choose something.

It should have something to do with that Shi Langjun, could it be that the two talked about Su Tang when they met, and Shi Qiyu complained that Xiao Lang did not protect Su Tang's safety, so Xiao Lang blamed himself for this?

"What's wrong with Shichiro?"

He Wei's voice came from behind him, and Lu Shuang turned around and said in a low voice: "I've been sitting here for more than half an hour, and the night is cold, how can I hurt my body?" ”

"It's okay, you go back first, I'll accompany you!"

"Hmm!" Lu Shuang gave the clothes to He Wei with confidence, if there is still someone who can enter Xu You's heart, Jingyuan has so many parts, and only He Wei can do it alone.

Feeling that there were more clothes on his body, Xu You raised his head and said with a smile: "Haven't slept yet?" Are you alarmed by the frost, this girl, will only make a fuss! ”

"It's not about frost, I got up at night and saw Lang Jun sitting here, so I came over to take a look." He Wei sat opposite, yawned, and said casually: "Trapped by love? ”

"Oh," Xu You glanced at him, and said angrily: "You are a monk, you can actually see that others are troubled by love?" ”

"My Fair Lady, I covet it; I can't ask for it, and I toss and turn. Qilang's illness can be seen by anyone who has read Mao's poems. ”

He Wei quipped: "However, this is a good thing! There was a time when I saw Qilang and Gu Yun walking quite closely, and I didn't mince words about the girls, and I thought that Longyang was good, and I was very worried in my heart......"

"Phew! Even if I'm so manly, your honor, that's to stay away, don't dream! ”

He Wei touched his face shamelessly and said, "That's why I often say that being ugly is a blessing." ”

Xu You was amused by him and laughed, and said speechlessly: "Ah Q spirit! ”

"What?"

"Nothing!" Xu You suddenly realized that since then, he has rarely remembered everything in his previous life, and his words and deeds are more and more in line with this era, which is a good thing or a bad thing.

In order to avoid He Wei's questioning, Xu You took the initiative to talk about Zhang Xuanji, and said: "Shi Qiyu was originally a girl, named Zhang Xuanji......

Shi Qiyu's identity as a girl is only known to Xu You and Zuo Yan, so after He Wei heard it, he was a little surprised and said, "Zhang Xuanji? And have a marriage contract with Gu Yun? ”

"Exactly!"

"You went to see Gu Yun tonight and mentioned this matter to him?"

"Not bad!"

"Hey, Shichiro, you've made a big mistake!" He Wei's face was gloomy, and he said: "When a man is alive, it is nothing more than the word power, how can Gu Yun not be jealous in his heart when you deal with Zhang Xuanji like this?" It's better to break off with Zhang Xuanji as soon as possible, and then hide it from Gu Yun, just as if this incident had not happened. But it's good that you actually spoke up to him, which is undoubtedly humiliating in person, which is too wrong! ”

Xu You smiled slightly: "Don't worry, listen to me." Gu Yun was very dissatisfied with Zhang Xuanji's appearance, and the eldest mother in the family did not approve of this family business, so she ordered Gu's father and Zhang's father to cancel the verbal agreement and choose Lu Weiyang of the Lu family as his wife. ”

He Wei frowned and said, "Dissatisfied with your appearance? ”

"Zhang Xuanji rarely shows her head, so you don't know much about her. This woman has a blue-black tire mark on the left side of her face, and she is ridiculed as a yin and yang fish face, but she can't get married at the age of twenty, which is a little pitiful! ”

He Wei was stunned, and said angrily: "Qilang, no wonder Gu Yun is so generous, his face is blue and black, the lord is sick, it is a bad omen, you, you, you must not marry her!" ”

Xu You never thought that just after solving Gu Yun's trouble, He Wei would oppose it so resolutely. Although it is his private matter to fall in love, but in this era, if you want to achieve great things, private affairs are also public affairs, and you can't be careless.

"Just because of a bad face?"

He Wei stood up, paced back and forth in the pavilion, and said, "Not only the face, has Qilang ever thought that Zhang Xuanji is the girl of the Zhang family of Wu County, how can he be so easy to marry?" How much effort did it take us to restore your scholarly status, maybe the court has completely trusted you? No! That's why the Xu family is included in the second door, and the meaning of prevention is not visible to Shichiro? Originally, according to the plan, we need Taoguang to be obscure for a period of time and secretly seek development, but if you pursue Zhang's girl with great fanfare, will you be burned? Moreover, the Zhang family is not a fool, knowing that Qilang is in a suspicious place, how can he be willing to marry his own girl to you, don't you wait to be implicated? ”

"Aren't we also cooperating well with the four surnames of Wu Jun now?"

"Cooperation is cooperation, but the interests are like-minded, and you can withdraw at any time. But the marriage is different, the in-laws are within the nine clans, and if something happens, everyone has to suffer together. ”

He Wei noticed that he was a little impatient, turned around and sat down, took two deep breaths, and his tone turned calm, and said: "Qilang, you can have a sweetheart, I am very happy for you, if there is no Yixing old thing, you have also reached the age of marrying a wife and having children." However, there are no ifs in the world, for your sake and for her, you must not have anything to do with it. If it is really affectionate, when we no longer need to look at other people's faces in the future, we will finally be able to get what we want. ”

Xu You looked up at the bright moon, wrapped the clothes on his body, and the cool breeze penetrated into his skin along the gaps, and there was a little stinging.
