Chapter 51: Old Dreams
It snowed at the temple fair that winter, and Chen Danzhu met a drunk man lying in the snow on the mountain.
Chen Danzhu thought that he was frozen to death, and was busy treating him, he kept muttering in a daze, "Singing drama, Lord Zhou, Lord Zhou is so miserable." ”
Chen Danzhu smelled the smell of wine, and then looked at this person's beard, just as a beggar idler, the idle man would be enthusiastic when he looked at the play of the gentleman and his confidant, and rubbed the snow on his hands and face, while responding indiscriminately, and comforting: "Don't be sad, Your Majesty has avenged Lord Zhou, and King Wu of Zhou has been killed." ”
The idle man laughed, laughed and cried: "Revenge can't be avenged, revenge can't be avenged, the enemy is the one who takes revenge, the enemy is not the princes and kings, but the emperor—"
Chen Danzhu shook and rubbed the snow on the man's mouth and nose, the man was provoked and fainted, at this time there were also footsteps under the mountain, she was busy hiding behind the rocks, and saw a group of people dressed in wealth and dignity rushing towards -
"Master Hou is here!" Those people shouted, "Found it, quick, quick, Hou Ye is here." ”
A group of people rushed to surround the drunk man and carry him down, Chen Danzhu behind the mountain was very surprised, this beggar-like idler turned out to be a marquis?
After getting rid of the princes and kings, the emperor seems to have a shadow in his heart for the princes, the princes have not been crowned kings for a long time, and the marquis has been few, and there is only one Guannei Marquis in the capital in the past ten years - Zhou Qing's son, known as the Marquis of Little Zhou.
Chen Danzhu was shocked behind the rocks, this idle man, could it be Zhou Qing's son?
Thinking of what he said at the right time, the assassin who killed Zhou Qing was the emperor's person-
Chen Danzhu thought that maybe she would die soon, and when she heard this kind of words, that idler, Xiao Zhouhou, would definitely come to kill her.
She was worried, but excited, if this little Zhou Hou came to kill him, could he let him fight with Li Liang's people? Let him misunderstand that Li Liang also knows about this, wouldn't this also kill Li Liang?
She tried to find a way for this day and night, but no one came to kill her, and after a while, she cautiously inquired, and heard that Xiao Zhouhou was actually dead, and he was cold from drinking in the snow, and he couldn't afford to get sick after going back, and finally died-
Chen Danzhu was a little uneasy, she shouldn't have used snow to pounce on his mouth and nose - if she saved it more, but she rubbed his mouth and nose with her front hand, and his subordinates came on the back foot, and it was saved in time.
So this week, Hou Ye didn't have a chance to say or didn't know that what he said was heard by her, right?
This matter passed silently, Chen Danzhu occasionally thought about it, and felt that Zhou Qing's death might really be done by the emperor, and as soon as Zhou Qing died, who would be more beneficial?
The princes and kings crusaded against Zhou Qing for the purpose of the Cheng'en Order, but the Cheng'en Decree was implemented by the emperor, and if the emperor did not withdraw it, it would be useless for Zhou Qing, the proposer, to die.
But if Zhou Qing is assassinated, the emperor will have a reason to use troops against the princes and kings-
"Second Miss, Second Miss." Ah Tian called and gently shook her with his hand.
Chen Danzhu came back to his senses and felt that his body was shivering like in winter.
"What's wrong with Second Miss?" Ah Tian asked uneasily, "Is there anything wrong?" ”
It's not proper, no, knowing this matter, you can have a clear understanding of the emperor - Chen Danzhu smiled at Ah Tian: "No, I'm fine, I solved a big thing, don't worry about it in the future." ”
Ah Tian breathed a sigh of relief and proposed: "Then when we are so happy, we should eat well in the evening." ”
Chen Danzhu smiled: "Drink some more wine." ”
"That's right." Ah Tian's eyebrows danced, "Miss Baihuajiu from Zuifeng Lou said last time that it was delicious, let's buy a pot from Zuifeng Lou." ”
Chen Danzhu nodded with a smile and said Okay, she can't remember whether the wine she drank ten years ago was good or not, so let's try it now.
Ah Tian happily lifted the curtain: "Bamboo forest." ”
Zhulin turned his head slightly and saw Ah Tian's sweet smiling face.
She said: "From the drunken wind building, buy a pot of — no, two pots of potpourri wine." ”
Zhu Lin's hand holding the horsewhip couldn't help but press on the money bag in his waist - next month's Yulu, can the general pay it in advance?
Chen Danzhu returned to the Peach Blossom Temple, drank a pot of wine, ate a table of dishes, and fell asleep in the summer night.
This night, Chen Danzhu had a dream.
After returning to the age of fifteen, even when she was sick and asleep, she did not dream, perhaps because the nightmare was in front of her and she no longer had the strength to dream.
Now those crises are slowly being resolved, or because he thinks of what happened in that life today, Chen Danzhu dreams of that life.
Peach Blossom Mountain was covered in heavy snow, she had never seen such a big snow - Wu Du would not snow so much, it could be seen that this was a dream, and she knew in her dream that she was dreaming.
She walked on the mountain with an umbrella, this is her habit in order to strengthen her body, she almost died of a serious illness after witnessing the destruction of her family, it took a year to recover, she can't die, she hasn't taken revenge, she must take care of her body, she can't ride a horse and shoot archery on the mountain to practice martial arts, she climbs the mountain every day, up and down several times, wind and rain are uninterrupted.
The whole mountain seemed to be covered with snow, Chen Danzhu was like stepping in the clouds, and then saw the idler lying in the snow-
Chen Danzhu knew in his dream that this was a dream, so he didn't dodge like that time, but walked over quickly.
The idler lay in the snow, holding a flask and drinking.
Chen Danzhu came to him and wanted to ask clearly, "Your father was really killed by the emperor?" "But no matter how much you run, you can't run in front of the idler.
The idler drank a jug of wine, threw it away, got up from the ground, and staggered away.
"Are you the Marquis of Kannai?" Chen Danzhu hurriedly asked loudly, "Are you Zhou Qing's son?" ”
He glanced back at her, didn't speak, and walked farther and farther away.
Chen Danzhu can only stand still, forget it, in fact, it doesn't matter to her whether it's really or not.
Chen Danzhu stood in the snow, her ears were noisy, she turned her head and saw a group of people talking and laughing on the road under the mountain, this is the daily scenery under the peach blossom mountain, people come and go every day.
Chen Danzhu held an umbrella and looked at the bustling world under the mountain in a daze, just like every day in those ten years, until she saw a person in her sight, it was a young man in his twenties, carrying a bookshelf on his back, and his face was full of dust-
Chen Danzhu shouted, threw down the umbrella, and rushed down the mountain.
"Zhang Yao—Zhang Yao—" she shouted loudly, waving her hands vigorously, tears pouring out of her eyes and blurring her eyes.
The young man's vision became clear in the blur, and he stopped at the shouting, and looked up the hill, which was a delicate and bright face, with eyes like stars.
Chen Danzhu still couldn't run over, no matter how he ran, he could only look at him from afar, Chen Danzhu was a little desperate, but there were more important things, just tell him and let him hear it.
"Zhang Yao, don't go to the capital." She shouted, "You don't go to Liu's house, you don't go." ”
The young scholar didn't know if he heard it, smiled at her, turned around and followed his companion, and walked towards the capital step by step, farther and farther—
Chen Danzhu cried loudly, opened his eyes, the sky outside the gauze tent was bright, the copper bells hanging under the eaves of the Taoist temple made a tinkling sound, and the servants and maids walked around softly and spoke in small pieces-
Chen Danzhu pressed his chest, felt the violent ups and downs, and the hot pain in his throat-
"Miss." Ah Tian walked in from outside, holding a cup of warm tea, "You wake up, moisten your throat." ”
She lifted the tent and saw Chen Danzhu's stunned expression - "Miss? What's wrong? ”
Chen Danzhu sat up slowly: "It's okay, I had a dream." ”
