Chapter 313: Leaving People Sad
There was a lot of preparation for the trip.
Li Su is still the Li Su who likes to work and enjoy himself, from Chang'an to Xizhou, the road is so hard, it is a difficult test for Li Su, so there are a lot of things to prepare.
First of all, we must prepare three large carriages, one for riding, and the other two for food and wine, as well as all kinds of enjoyment things, the desert is windy and sandy, it is necessary to make a few simple versions of masks, the temperature difference between day and night is large, not only to prepare fans and bedding, but also to prepare two stoves for heating in winter......
"What about taking a shower?" Li Su's face sank like water, and he twisted his eyebrows and thought.
This is a big problem, it's okay to skip meals for a day, and if you don't take a bath for a day, Li Su feels that she doesn't belong to human beings, but animals.
Steward Xue was a little surprised: "Take a bath in the desert? This ......"
Does this young man know how precious the water in the desert is?
Li Su thought for a long time and said, "Prepare two more carriages, and build a big wooden barrel on the carriage......"
"What are you for?"
"Fill it with bathwater."
“…………”
Zheng Xiaolou also packed his luggage with a cool face.
Originally, Li Su planned to leave Zheng Xiaolou at home to take care of his father and wife at home, but Zheng Xiaolou threw a disdainful look at him.
Li Su understood the look.
The family is located in Guanzhong, the suburbs of Chang'an, the people in the village are simple, there are no bandits, and in the name of the county government, even the county order has to be politely discussed, not to mention that there are Wang brothers in the village to take care of, it is impossible for anything big to happen to the Li family, on the contrary, the Xizhou where Li Su is going is desolate and uninhabited, and there are many bandits on the road, not to mention that the situation in Xizhou is complicated. The danger is exhausted, compared to the calm and comfortable Li family compound, it is much more dangerous to go to Xizhou, one more loyal guard is equivalent to bringing one more life by his side, and leaving Zheng Xiaolou in Taiping Village is indeed worthy of contempt.
After Li Su figured it out, he still decided to take Zheng Xiaolou on the road, and everyone was so disdainful and willing to be a human shield. It is not suitable for not to be braided.
The things of the five carriages have been prepared for three days, and in these three days, Li Daozheng has a sad face and is busy, Xu Mingzhu is depressed, and he always dangles in front of Li Su intentionally or unintentionally, catching Li Su's curious looking back, he threw a resentful look, which made people's hearts tremble, and their teeth were sore.
Li Su is also busy. Busy entering Chang'an City to say goodbye to many veterans.
The veterans are all old killers who are accustomed to seeing life and death, and there are not too many emotional fluctuations about Li Su's departure. When the grass and trees are in autumn, they have to die early and late......
The straightforwardness of the veterans made Li Su hairy all over. This tone is like Li Su is not the Jade Gate Pass but the Ghost Gate Pass, anyway, the veterans are not long, and they will reunite with the virtuous nephew below in a few years.
However, the veterans still made full use of the opportunity of Li Su's farewell and held a banquet at home, because this time it was out of the stopper, and the theme of the banquet was in a heroic style. A jar of wine is poured into the mouth, and the boiled meat is stuffed into the mouth one by one, which is very weird, every veteran in the fiefdom of the Zhuangzi happened to fall to death a cow, and Li Su ate the beef until he vomited in the past three days.
Beautiful orchids pounced on Li Su's little fresh meat in groups. As for the dancing sword, sword and axe dance when the banquet is in full swing, it is an indispensable banquet program for every veteran, and the title should be meaningful. A dazzling set of swordsmanship and axe dance that is actually incomprehensible at all won the applause of the hall without exception, as if it was trembling as if it had touched the G-spot.
After three full days of dancing with the demons, Li Su was drunk into a puddle of mud every day, and for the first time had the idea of leaving Chang'an as soon as possible to take up his post.
In addition to visiting the veterans, the eldest grandson Wuji, Kong Yingda, Wei Zheng, these famous ministers also prepared gifts to say goodbye in person, compared to the heroic style of the veterans, the ministers are obviously more gentle, and they all greeted Li Su in person when he arrived, and then ...... Ordered a banquet in the house.
Wenchen's family banquet is exquisite, the wine order, the pot is thrown, the wine is in the middle of the painting and poetry, and even the discussion of the sages and scriptures, and the arguments are often red-faced.
What's even more unfortunate is that although Li Su has been closest to the generals for more than a year, in the eyes of many Wenchen, Li Su is famous all over the world and is a typical literati among literati, but this literati is a bit willing to degenerate and likes to associate with vulgar martial artists.
So Li Su, who was still drenched in meat, had to leave two poems indiscriminately, which attracted full applause, and reached a climax collectively like the generals dancing axes, and they were overturned.
Calculating his connections in Chang'an, Li Su suddenly remembered Sun Simiao, who had not seen him since he was cured of smallpox, and it was a bit rude to say that Sun Simiao was currently living in Sanqingguan outside Chang'an City, so Li Su hurriedly prepared a heavy gift to go to visit.
Sun Simiao still looks like a fairy in the Dao bones, standing up and wearing a Taoist robe fluttering, I want to ride the wind to go back, this time Li Su was finally not poured wine, Sun Simiao is the most important health, and the wine is not a drop.
The process of meeting Sun Simiao was very smooth, Lao Sun didn't blame Li Su for not coming to visit him, and his farewell to Li Su was also light-hearted, and finally waved his hand boringly, and said a word of farewell seriously, to the effect that if you love to go, don't disturb the poor road and soar......
The people who should say goodbye have basically said goodbye.
The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled over Chang'an, Li Su walked on the way out of the city, looking back at the palace eaves of the imperial city in the distance shrouded in a layer of golden light, Li Su squinted, smiled, and continued to walk towards the city gate.
For Li Shimin, don't say goodbye, I've known each other for a year, the relationship between Li Shimin and Li Su is complicated and difficult to understand, it is said to be a favor, but in fact, it is often beaten, and the relationship with Dongyang's children was broken up by his own hands.
Dongyang is his daughter, Li Su even seems to be a little weak in resistance, but for His Majesty the scheming Heavenly Khan, Li Su is becoming more and more respectful, Li Shimin will move him out of the plug may not lack the meaning of honing and improving, Li Su does not object, in the final analysis, where is he not tolerated by the court, it is clear that there are some places in his personality that cannot be tolerated by Li Shimin, so Li Shimin wants to grind off his edges and corners, grind off his edge, and let Li Su become what he wants to become.
*************************************************************
Time only relieves people to get old, they don't believe in being amorous, they hate to leave the pavilion for a long time, and the teardrops are easy to wake up.
Farewell to his father Li Daozheng early in the morning, goodbye to Steward Xue and the subordinates, and then goodbye to the villagers who said goodbye one by one, Li Su's reluctant eyes wandered around the crowd, but found that Xu Mingzhu did not come, Li Su smiled meaninglessly, maybe last time she stopped her from going to Xizhou, the little girl was not happy, and she played a little temper today.
Under the affection of his father and the villagers, Li Su got into the carriage, followed by four modified wide-box carriages, and swayed on the road.
Li Su is a four-grade driver, and he is considered a high-ranking official locally, not to mention that he has the title of county viscount, and there must be a guard of honor when traveling.
Not only that, Li Shimin also deliberately issued an order to give him a thousand fine horses, which were assigned to him, and then went to Xizhou to take office.
This move is a bit interesting, Li Su pondered for a long time, but he didn't know anything about the current situation in Xizhou, and he couldn't guess whether Li Shimin gave him this thousand fine horses to deal with internal worries or to resist external troubles.
A thousand elite horsemen waited for him by the Baqiao on the outskirts of Chang'an, and Li Su simply waived the honor guard, and only took Zheng Xiaolou and a few coachmen on the road.
Passing by the Taoist temple where Dongyang is located, Li Su suddenly stopped, and looked at the closed door not far away through the wooden window of the carriage, Li Su sighed abruptly, faintly lost in his heart, put down the curtain and ordered to continue walking.
Parting is the most ecstatic, unprovoked sorrow for lovers, or don't say goodbye.
Driving through the muddy country road, the first rays of sunlight in the morning quietly emerge from the horizon, and the mist shrouded in the mountains and forests on the roadside gradually dissipates under the illumination of the sun, and bursts of pleasant birdsong rise and fall in the mountains and forests.
Li Su sat in the carriage, closed his eyes leisurely, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Suddenly, the birdsong in the mountains and forests stopped, and the birds fluttered their wings and flew in shock.
A familiar sound of music came from the side of the mountain and forest, the music entered the ears, Li Su suddenly opened his eyes, shouted and stopped, and then opened the curtain of the car like crazy, standing on the wheel and looking forward.
Under a ginkgo tree on the edge of the mountain forest, Dongyang actually put on a long-lost gorgeous palace costume, his long hair was softly draped on his shoulders, bathed in the golden morning light, like a lonely nine-day fairy, standing quietly under the ginkgo tree, holding a strange-looking musical instrument with his fingers, approaching his lips and gently playing a sad song.
Li Su's eyes were red, he knew that Dongyang was sending her in her own way, not hesitating to break the precepts of the monks, and put on his favorite palace clothes, even the long hair that was scattered was also to cater to his liking, and the strange instrument she played at the moment was the Xun that he had personally fired, and the song he played was also the song "The Original Scenery of Hometown" that he once played to her.
Unexpectedly, these days, Dongyang learned this song quietly.
Looking at Dongyang, who looked like a fairy in the morning light, Li Su's heartbeat accelerated in vain, jumped out of the carriage and ran towards her.
Xun Sheng suddenly stopped, and in the distance, Dongyang waved his hand at him, crying and laughing, but he didn't let him come.
Li Su's footsteps froze, he stood gloomily in place, and waved at her.
Everyone is weak, and they can't bear the pain of parting. Ten miles of spring breeze, blowing away from people's sorrows.
