Chapter 246 The old man goes to the new man
The solemn atmosphere in the Huai Garden lasted until dark.
The housekeeper urged several times that it was time for dinner, and everyone in the Wang family who was guarding outside the garden did not leave.
In the end, Xie Yun said out loud: "Since my father is already like this, it is useless for us to wait, if my father wakes up, he doesn't want to see us like this." Let's eat something first. β
Since someone spoke, it was still the third lady of the Wang family, so half of the people went to eat, and half of them were still in Huaiyuan.
As the younger two, Wang Kui and Wang Zhong stayed outside the park.
"Third uncle, fourth sister, should be in time, right?"
When his father left, the depressing atmosphere faded slightly, Wang Kui finally had the courage to speak, and faced Wang Ding and asked such a sentence.
Wang Ding thought for a while, sighed and said, "It should be in time." I hope Huahua won't mess around, if she comes back at this time, the Xie family's side ...... I can't explain it anyway. β
Wang Zhong said: "It should be in time, Zhang Xiang contacted Tiqi, and the message was delivered using Tiqi's line." And the fourth sister herself is also ...... There should be measured. β
"Hate this thief!" Wang Kui smashed his fist into the palm of his hand, and said angrily: "That dog thing, I can't wait to cut him with a thousand knives!" β
Xie Yun was also accompanying Wang Ding outside the garden, and when he saw Wang Kui angrily, he said, "These will wait for your grandfather's results to come out." As long as you don't die, the third aunt will allow you to lynch at that time. β
Wang Kui nodded heavily.
Wang Zhong said worriedly: "It is said that Brother Xie went to Taiyuan Mansion, and I don't know what happened. Since even grandpa dares to do it over there...... Brother Xie is probably also unlucky. β
"He'll be fine, Uncle Zhang of Taiyuan Mansion has a very good relationship with Xie Shuai, and he will help each other, and since he dares to go, he must have a complete plan, we don't have to worry." Wang Ding was relieved, then looked at Wang Kui and said: "That group of people, you can't kill them, you can't let them go, they should be strictly guarded, don't die one." β
Wang Kui heard this, and said: "Third uncle, don't worry, this gang of miscellaneous people is difficult to die now!" β
After Wang Zhen, Wang Dai and others came back, Wang Ding, Xie Yun, Wang Kui, and Wang Zhong also went down to eat something. After that, the family continued to guard outside the Huai Garden.
At night, the door of Huaiyuan finally opened.
The tired old Zen master walked out, and the senior brother followed behind with Cao Guan, who was already asleep.
Everyone in the Wang family hurriedly surrounded them.
Wang Zhen is the eldest son of Lao Shangshu and the eldest of the Wang brothers, so he took the lead in speaking: "Master, my father...... What's going on? β
The old Zen master looked around and shook his head slowly.
So they were silent in private, Wang Zhen's wife and Wang Dai's wife both sobbed quietly, and Wang Kui and Wang Zhong also raised their sleeves and wiped them on their faces.
Xie Yun stepped forward and said, "Master, how long can he hold on, father?" β
"You can go up just after sleeping, but don't speak. When he wakes up again, he can say anything. He...... I can't stand it. β
And they all hid their faces.
Wang Zhen personally sent the old Zen master and his senior brother Cao Guan to a small building on the edge of Huaiyuan. When the senior brother went to rest with Cao Guan in his arms, Wang Zhen shook the ground at the old Zen master and said, "Anyway, the Wang family is grateful to the master for his help, these days, the master has worked hard." β
The old Zen master received a salute, and then returned the salute: "The poor monk and your father are friends, and they should be ...... However, there is no way to return to heaven. The monks are already empty, and if you think about it carefully, the poor monks are still unwilling. β
"The master has done his best, don't blame yourself."
"The poor monk doesn't know what to say."
Wang Zhen said with a straight face: "Master, it doesn't hurt to say it. There are only two people here, you and me, the mouth of the master, into my ears, never as a third person knows. β
The old Zen master then said, "Well, the poor monk said it bluntly. β
"I don't know what you think about the future of the Wang family? Talking about martial arts and martial arts were both proposed by Xie Shence, your Wang family is the leading family in the Great Jin Dynasty, why did you agree? In the future, if Wutang and Wuju become climate, the foundation of your royal family will also be broken, and at that time, what should you do? β
Hearing this, Wang Zhen furrowed his eyebrows tightly.
"If you think about it carefully, you can give it a word or not to the poor monk."
After the old Zen master finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to go back to his room.
"The master stays."
Wang Zhen said: "I can reply to the master now. β
"Oh? If you will speak, I will listen. β
Wang Zhen paused, thought about it, and said, "The Wang family will not regret it. The merchant is in a sharp word, but more in the letter. Once my king's words are spoken, I will do what I do. β
"Well, the poor monk believes in you."
"In that case, Master, rest, and if necessary, please feel free to speak."
"Amitabha."
After Wang Zhen left, the senior brother came out of the room, walked to the old Zen master and asked, "What Wang Zhen said from his heart?" He won't blame the little junior brother in the future? β
Back in the room, after the senior brother took a futon for the old Zen master and sat down, the old Zen master said: "No matter whether Wang Zhen is telling the truth or not, he will not trouble your little brother in the future." Can't and don't dare. β
The senior brother was puzzled: "Why is this?" β
"Among all the gate valves in the Great Jin Dynasty, the Wang family and the Xie family are different from other families. The Xie family is heirloom with poetry and books, and the Wang family is based on commerce, which is not a family of gate valves in the traditional sense. Fundamentally, they are not the beneficiaries of the gate valve, but the victims of the gate valve system. Because their foundation does not lie in one state. Therefore, whether it is the imperial examination, or the martial arts hall or the martial arts, it is not beneficial to anyone when it is implemented, but it is good for them. This is also why the Great Jin Dynasty has implemented the imperial examination for so many years, but the Xie family has benefited the most, and the Great Jin Dynasty has seven provinces and sixty-three states, and only the Huaiyang Dao has the strongest bookish atmosphere. β
"So, what your junior brother did, in addition to doing it for the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, to a certain extent, it was also for the Xie family and the Wang family. In other words, this struggle around Jiangwutang is now the alliance between Emperor Jin and the Xie family of the Wang family, fighting against the entire Jin dynasty. Because of this reason, and because of the marriage, what Wang Zhen just said, whether true or not, has nothing to do with the result. He could only get closer to the Xie family. β
Senior Brother shook his head.
"I don't understand."
"You can understand, it's just that you don't want to understand."
Looking at the silent senior brother, the old Zen master paused, said in a soothing tone, "You still haven't let go of the past...... Put it down, you can't see Mount Tai in a single leaf, just look back, you miss too much scenery. β
The senior brother looked up and said, "I can't let it go." If you can't put it down, you can't put it down, even if you miss a lot. β
With a long sigh, the old Zen master shook his head and stopped talking.
In the middle of the night, Wang Laoshang woke up, and Huaiyuan was a silent sensation.
The old Zen master and the senior brother were called up, rushed to the third floor of Huaiyuan, and saw the pale face, but the spirit seemed to be good.
The old Zen master frowned, and the tips of his long, snow-white brows trembled. Xie Yun, who observed this scene, suddenly tightened his heart and pulled Wang Ding's sleeve hard.
Wang Ding sensed something, glanced at his wife, and his heart sank to the bottom.
"Yuan Ying......" Lao Shangshu's weak voice came.
Yuan Ying is the common name of the old Zen master Zhiyong, and there are very few people who know it now.
The old Zen master stepped forward, and everyone got out of the way.
Old Shangshu woke up several hours earlier than he expected. This indicates that Lao Shangshu will die several hours early.
"Wonyoung, ah......"
"What's the trouble?"
β...... I can't put it down. The corners of Lao Shangshu's eyes were cloudy, and the corners of his mouth were filled with a trace of saliva.
Xie Yun hurriedly stepped forward and gently wiped it off with a silk scarf. This kind of thing, in the Wang family, only her third lady can do, even the eldest lady and the second lady cannot.
Raising his hand with difficulty, Lao Shangshu motioned for the Wang family to go out.
Wang Zhen, Wang Dai, and Wang Ding all understood, although they were unwilling, they also went out quickly, and only the old Zen master and the old Shangshu were left in the room.
"There are only two of us left. Something...... I'm going to talk about it. β
The old Zen master looked at Lao Shangshu's shrewd eyes that were no longer shrewd but still majestic and firm, and nodded.
"The first emperor and the old stone, waiting for us underground...... Twenty years. I'm going to go, Xie Daoji is also soon, Qian Bo'an...... It is estimated that after compiling the book, he will be at the end. We...... You're the only one left. You're the only one to watch them from now on......"
The old Zen master nodded.
"My sons, if you will, just look at them, and don't let them do anything wrong. Reluctance to ...... Gotta watch! β
The old Zen master nodded again, smiled, and said that he would do his best.
"My granddaughters...... None of them are here, and I don't want them here. Because, my grandfather, must always be tall and majestic, always wise and wise! β
"I miss them......"
Lao Shangshu tilted his head hard.
To the east, there are Wang Qingcao and Wang Qinghuai, and to the north and northwest, there are Wang Qingyan and Wang Jiehua.
Lao Shangshu stopped talking, and the old Zen master waited for a while, then got up and opened the door, let the people of the Wang family come in, go out by himself, and then closed the door.
"Father." Wang Zhen's eyes made contact with Lao Shangshu, and he took a step forward and knelt in front of the bed. Wang Zhen knelt down, and Mrs. Wang, Wang Kui, and Wang Zhong immediately knelt behind him.
"Boss ......"
"Father, son is here!"
"You have to remember the few things I told you, you are a smart person and know what to do."
"Yes."
So Lao Shangshu turned his gaze to Wang Dai, and Wang Dai and his wife hurriedly knelt down beside Wang Zhen.
"Dick...... Qingyan's matter, don't worry about it, let her go. The mind of the Wang family, how could they ever be stingy? If you can't catch the third girl, let her go...... Go on your own. β
"Father, my son doesn't care, I don't care."
Wang Ding and Xie Yun walked to Wang Dai and knelt down beside his wife.
"Yun'er, you have been at my Wang family for nearly twenty years, and you feel very guilty for your father."
"Father's ......"
"The only thing I can consciously compensate you for is that I chose a good husband for Huahua."
"What does the daughter-in-law know......" Xie Yun's eyes were already hazy.
"The third child, Huai Yang said...... You have to help the eldest and the second two more, and ...... You're the one who holds up this family......"
"Hehehehe, Xie Daoji, Qian Boan...... I, Wang Jianghuai, am waiting for you below......"
"I see it...... The first emperor, and the old stone, this era does not belong to us......"
After a long time, a low whimper came from the room.
......
In the early morning of July 25, a group of dusty people appeared in the suburbs of Kaifeng Mansion, and more than 20 people turned over and dismounted in front of a luxurious manor.
The guards guarding the gate of the manor hula surrounded him, drew their sharp swords and aimed them at a group of men, and crossbowmen loomed not far away.
The captain of the guard shouted, "Stop! What for? This place can be entered by non-idle people, and everyone will die if they break in! β
More than 20 people immediately stopped, and the first person lifted his hood, revealing a haggard and tired face.
The chief of the guard stepped forward suspiciously and looked at the young man.
"Are you...... Little Marquis? Humble to meet the little marquis! The man hurriedly knelt on the ground. When the guards behind him heard that it was the little marquis, they also hurriedly collected their weapons and knelt on the ground.
The person who came was Xie Shence.
Xie Shence said, "I'm going in." β
"Little Marquis, please come in, the prince is inside."
"Feed my horses, and these people arrange for them to eat, drink, and bathe."
"Yes!"
The chief guard looked up in response, and the voice of Xie Shence was gone.
Soon, Xie Shence, who had greasy hair and was covered in ash, met Xie Shenwei.
"Where's Flowey?"
"It's right in the back. How did you...... Ay! You wash first! β
Xie Shence was already relieved when he heard that Wang Jiehua was behindβit seemed to be fine. It's just that I didn't see it with my own eyes, and Xie Shence always felt unsteady. So he didn't wait for Xie Shenwei to finish speaking, he grabbed a guard and asked him to step forward and lead the way.
The guards took Xie Shence to the backyard where Wang Jiehua temporarily lived, but was stopped by Fourth Brother Wang.
"Auntie, aunt? Do you want? You can't go in...... Ouch! β
Xie Shence kicked away Fourth Brother Wang, knocked away the guards, and stepped through the courtyard gate and entered inside.
It's still early in the morning, the temperature is not too high, the plantain and osmanthus in the courtyard are verdant and rich, and there are birds singing crisply on an ancient tree.
Xie Shence couldn't open the door, so he pierced the window paper and woke up the little girl sleeping outside softly.
The little girl opened the door reluctantly, opened the door a crack, and looked out with a wrinkled nose.
Suddenly, a bearded and scumbag black face appeared in the field of vision through the crack in the door, startling her.
The little girl's first reaction was to scream.
It's not closed.
So Xie Shence squeezed in, and then covered her mouth.
The little girl was frightened, thinking that she had come in to pick flowers and thieves, her hands and feet flicked wildly, and her thin elbows fiercely pushed back to thank Shence.
The thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, who is thin and scratches, should be tickled by her thrashing Xie Shence.
A simple lock person, Xie Shence locked the little girl's limbs.
"Shhhh Xie Shence turned the little girl's head over and said seriously.
Uncle? Deceitful! How could my uncle be here? Still such a look called Hanako?
Xie Shence saw the distrust in the little girl's eyes, so he took out a hand, took out a waist card from the back waist, and shook it in front of the little girl.
"Don't believe me? Here's my proof, you see? β
The little girl looked at the waist card with wide eyes.
Admiral Ti Cavalry.
The little girl struggled even more.
It's really an uncle! It's really an uncle! What to do? What to do? Is he going to see Miss? They can't see each other before the church again! What should I do?
Xie Shence inserted the waist card back into his waist, and hurriedly locked the little girl's limbs tightly.
"You don't believe me? Believe? Okay, don't move, I'll let go slowly...... Okay, that's it...... Don't worry, I won't mess around......"
"Uncle, you can't come in!"
The little girl "shouted" to Xie Shence with her mouth shape.
Xie Shence also said with a lip sync: "I just looked at her, and she didn't know, so it wasn't a meeting." β
The little girl was stunned, and then couldn't resist Xie Shence, pretending to be persuaded and then monitoring Xie Shence into Wang Jiehua's inner room.
Whew, Xie Shence finally saw Wang Jiehua who was sleeping.
Seems to have lost some weight...... Have dark circles under your eyes too? Also, it's so hard to travel, and it's really hard. Did you have any bad dreams? His brow furrowed slightly......
Thinking so, Xie Shence couldn't help but yawn, so he smiled, and Xie Shence turned around and came out.
Gotta wash up.
Standing on the steps, Xie Shence watched the rising sun, picked up a stone in the flower bed, drove away the early singing birds on the tree, and walked out.
The little girl looked at Xie Shen's embarrassed and chic back in a daze, and she couldn't react a little.
This uncle is really like what those sisters said, very ...... Strange.
At three o'clock in the morning, Wang Jiehua finally got up lazily. It seems that it was because there were no birds chirping to disturb and I slept soundly.
Dressing up and eating a little bit for breakfast as usual, Wang Jiehua seemed to find that her little maid was a little absent-minded.
"Xiao Yu'er, what's wrong with you today?"
I was startled by the little fish that suddenly screamed.
"Huh?! IγOh, nothing, nothing, nothing, miss. β
Wang Jiehua looked at her and asked, "Are you uncomfortable?" Also, Xiao Ye'er was sick the day before yesterday, and she hasn't been well until now, so I think you can't adapt to the soil and water. I'll go talk to the fourth brother and ask him to find you a doctor. β
"Huh? No, no, no, miss, I'm not sick, I don't need to see a doctor. β
"Really not sick?"
"I'm not sick, maybe ...... It's not sleeping, yes, yes! I just didn't sleep well. β
Wang Jiehua looked at Xiao Yu'er's panicked appearance and smiled slightly, could it be...... It seems that we have to find someone to marry her quickly.
So in these three words, a girl's marriage was dramatically put on the agenda.
In the early afternoon, the group set off. It is impossible for such a huge team of thousands of people to go fast, and thirty miles a day is the limit. Xie Shenwei's plan is to pick up some of the ones that can go fast and rush to Jindu as soon as possible, and the large items in the back can go slowly, anyway, before July 29, you can feel that Jindu will be completed.
Fourth Brother Wang and Wang Jiehua both agreed to such an arrangement. So the team moved slowly. Almost no one noticed that there were more than twenty people in the ranks.
On the day of July 28, Wang Jiehua arrived in Jindu, and when the huge team entered the city from Mingdemen, the largest in Jindu, the people of Jindu all stopped and watched.
So many carriages...... So many servants...... Thinking about the marriage of the Admiral this time, the scale must be huge.
When was the last time there was a wedding of this magnitude? Princess Jinyang and the prince of Weihou?
Wang Jiehua lived in the mansion of the Wang family. The name of the Wang family is a Qingliu Yushi of the Yushitai, and in terms of seniority, this Wang Yushi is Wang Jiehua's uncle. Wang Jiehua lived here before marriage, which can be regarded as a good choice.
Although this Wang Yushi is a member of the Huaiyang Dao Wang family, and it is also because of Wang Lao Shangshu that he has secured the position of the imperial history, but he is an iron-faced and selfless person, according to Lao Shangshu's words, "is a hard stubble". is not hard and hard, Lord Wang still attaches great importance to the marriage of his niece. No, I have already cleaned up my home and waited for Wang Jiehua's arrival.
However, the embarrassing thing is that even if he was prepared, Wang Yushi was still taken aback by Wang Jiehua's dowry items: some things at home have been packed up in the countryside, and they still can't fit it!
Wang Jiehua was also very ashamed at the moment, and blushed when she vaguely said that there was still more than half of the back.
Wang Yushi was completely embarrassed.
(PS: I've been very busy lately, I'm really busy, but it won't break, at least one more every day, and the number of words is guaranteed!) This chapter is 5,000 words. Good night~.~)
