Chapter 121: Shen Yi (Part II)

On the third day of the first month of March in the first year of Taiqian, the spring is bright and bright, and the flowers are blooming, but the women in Yiyuan are wearing plain clothes on this day. No one in the garden has set foot in spring, and the beautiful spring scenery has been hidden by the paleness.

On that day, Pei Xu, who had been away from Yiyuan for many years, stepped into the place of his nostalgia again.

After a long absence, it will be a long time. He was a young man and was favored by the Duke of Jin to live in Yiyuan. Repair bamboo sandalwood, flower shadow incense path. A place that haunts people's dreams.

It was in the garden that he met Akira Wan. I've seen it a few times before, but it's always a glimpse from afar. Seeing a small figure, it was fleeting. Previously, she could only glance twice when she saw Han Gong hugging her, but she only let her mother-in-law hug her for half a moment. At that time, Han Xuan was dying of old age, and he couldn't hold it after holding it for a while. I can only lament that he is old and frail.

is not only old and frail, in fact, what he wants to tell more is his fate.

He didn't lose his glory until he died, but unfortunately he was still a bitter man in the end.

Revisiting the old place, but it is to mourn.

Resounding in the Gardenβ€”β€”

The mourning of the multitude, and the weeping of themselves.

The day of the owner's death is the time when the garden changes hands.

Pei Xu recalled this period of time, life is full of countless coincidences and inevitability.

Pei Ji saw him stop suddenly, his eyes straightened, "Why did you stop suddenly?" ”

He looked at the familiar garden, as if it was still a few years ago, "No, I remember the old things." Pei Xu's heart was hanging, and it seemed that there were still a lot of things waiting for him to finish.

"The old thing, could it be the entrustment of the year?"

"Tell me, I've forgotten about it."

Pei Xu seems to have been poked in the center, and there is a thorn in his back.

Pei Ji didn't need to look at it to know that his words were adulterated, "Lie, it seems that you have to learn to lie." ”

He couldn't get over it, so he was silent.

"You think about the entrustment of the year."

Pei Xu looked up at the sky, the blue sky was as blue as a wash.

It seems to have returned to many years ago, when he first came to the strange and grand Han Mansion, his heart was uneasy, and he crossed the threshold with a groveling heart.

He looked at the majestic house, which he had never seen before.

"This is Yi Yuan."

The subordinates of the Han Mansion smiled and said: "Pei Lang, wrong, this is the old residence of the Han Mansion, it was the residence of the Duke of Jin back then, and it is called Hengyuan." ”

He was so timid that he was even a little afraid of the laughter of his subordinates. When the children of the small family walk into the door of the magnificent mansion, they will inevitably be in awe, and even fear.

Pei Xu asked, "Hengyuan, which horizontal character?" ”

He couldn't imagine how immature his voice was, and it was incompatible with this Han Mansion.

"The son said: 'Be faithful in your words and be respectful in your deeds, although you are a barbarian state, you will do it. Words are not faithful, deeds are not respectful, although in the state, what are the deeds? Standing is to see its participation in the front, and in the public opinion, it is seen to rely on Hengye, and the husband will then act. It means to be faithful and respectful. The servant laughed.

He didn't expect that even the descendants of the Han family would be so knowledgeable. At that time, Pei Xu was not enlightened, and he didn't even know a word.

Pei Xu blushed and said, "I don't know." I don't understand. ”

The subordinate smiled heartily, "Actually, I don't understand it either, this sentence is only circulated in Hengyuan, and it is remembered by every subordinate person." ”

He guessed, "Isn't this a family motto?" ”

The subordinate touched his head, "No, this sentence was often repeated by the old man when he was alive." Because he liked this phrase so much, everyone wrote it down. I don't understand the big truth, but in life, as long as you do things in a down-to-earth manner. ”

He nodded as if he didn't understand, "You have some point. "He pretended to be a little adult, but he didn't understand anything.

"Let's take a look here."

The subordinate led him to the main hall to see, "This is Xuanheng Hall, maybe it should be from those two words inside." ”

At that time, Pei Xu saw that the words on the plaque were only symbols composed of strokes and strokes, but the thickness inside was incomprehensible and unclear.

Pei Xu didn't know anything about the etiquette of the big clan, "Can I go in?" ”

"We can take advantage of the fact that no one is quietly going in to take a look now, if it is a big festival, it will be used by many people to sacrifice here."

He nodded, then crossed the threshold, "What's the word on it?" ”

"Hengjing. The great powers put the mirror of balance and level the center of heaven and earth. The next man said.

Pei Xu exclaimed: "You know a lot." ”

"No, I'm not very literate, these are all taught by old people. My family has been a slave for generations, and I know that this is all by word of mouth. The servant laughed.

His eyes were drawn to the tribute on the pineapple table, on which were placed many delicate knick-knacks, much more delicate than the small things he usually played.

The next person saw his dirty hands touching it indiscriminately, "Little ancestor, don't touch it." ”

These things are tribute, and he is lucky that a boy in cloth can see it.

The subordinates were afraid that he would break something, so they hurriedly left the pagoda.

"Let's go look elsewhere."

Pei Xu was afraid of being restrained, and hurriedly broke free from him, "Hey! ”

The subordinate smiled bitterly: "Why does Lang Jun still want to take a look here?" ”

"yes, I want to see it. This is good. ”

The subordinate looked around, but fortunately there was no one here. "Alright, alright, don't rush this time."

"Who did you just say about the sacrifice?"

"Ah, this is the former residence of Prime Minister Han, but he himself has never lived in the main hall, only in the east room, or in another place." The next person said.

Pei Xu asked: "Prime Minister Han, is that the father of the Duke of Jin?" ”

The subordinate smiled slightly, "yes." ”

"Wouldn't it be a waste to put such a good place but not live there?"

The subordinate thought for a while, and then said: "There were people living in Hengyuan before him, it was the place of the ancestors, and the younger generations should not come to disturb it." ”

"So no one lives here, and they also respect their ancestors?"

"Of course."

He only thought that it would be a waste to live in such a big place, and he still thinks so to this day.

Pei Xu asked: "Is Yiyuan the same?" ”

"No, it was a residence for a short period of time, it was originally for the former Da Langzi, but he died before it was finished."

When Pei Xu was young, he was afraid of life and death, so he asked in a hurry: "Go?" ”

"yes, many years. At that time, he seemed to have just passed the weak crown. ”

He sighed, "It's sad. ”

The subordinates were afraid that he would cry, so they hurried to appease him. "You think about all these things at such a young age."

Pei Xu just wiped his tears, he missed his mother. It's a pity that I didn't leave a memory, and as time went by, it all became a blank memory.

He sobbed and said, "No, nothing. ”

The next man patted him, "Alas, child." You shouldn't think about it. How nice it is to be carefree. ”

At that time, in his eyes, Hengyuan was generous, but in fact, it was not as good as the current house, and it was not as good as half of Yiyuan. From today's point of view, the Hengyuan Garden is quite elegant, and simple and quiet.

But when he saw the plain place, he felt bored, "After walking for most of the day, there is no fun place here?" ”

Pei Xu sat on the big stone by the pond, picked up a stone and threw it in. The stones stir up layers of splashes, which is also interesting.

The servant felt tired, so he leaned against the stone, "These are all houses, and there is nothing to eat or play." And since the death of Mrs. Xiao, there has been no one living here. ”

"Mrs. Xiao?"

The servant said secretly: "That's the old lady, the mother of the prince." The widow lived here for five years and then passed away. Since then, these decades have been empty. ”

Because he was a child, he didn't scruple to say this.

The subordinate persuaded: "Don't inquire about other people's affairs, I'll take you to see the master in the afternoon." ”

There are too many names and too many words in this family, Pei Xu listened to a lot of rules, and the last thing he can remember is to salute when he meets, and then he must speak respectfully.

"There are so many rules, I didn't have so many rules at home before."

Pei Xu just wants a free and unrestrained life.

"Where there are wealthy mansions, how can there be no rules. If you really indulge people, then it is not true. The subordinate said worriedly. In fact, we don't want to be controlled, but if we don't care, some people will kick their noses in the face, which is too unreasonable. After the management, it was quiet and cleaned. The next man said with a smile.

"What do you mean by purge?"

The man thought for a moment, "It means neat or neat." This is the way to govern the family. ”

Pei Xu shook his legs, "You know a lot." I didn't understand anything, and even my eldest brother laughed at me for being uninformed. ”

The young man was the only one he met who hadn't laughed at him, so he could pour out his thoughts.

"Well, you're still a child, you can learn anything. Besides, you are still the son of an official, and your future will be many times better than that of us slaves, and if you do, I will have to rely on you in the future. The servant laughed.

Xiao Pei Xu pouted and said, "But I can't learn it, I have a headache when I read those words." My dad forced me to study, but I didn't want to study at all. ”

"They may not understand the principles of the saints in the mouths of those gentlemen, and it is impossible for you to learn them as a child. My dad taught me to learn everything. ”

He always took his words to heart, and this was the beginning of his learning.

"I see."

"How many talented people can really be? Alas, it is said that the son of the Han family is a talent, but in fact, he has studied for decades. I apprenticed when I was two or three years old, and I went outside to experience it when I was a teenager, so I couldn't do it. The servant laughed.

He said worriedly: "Then I don't know anything now, I must have fallen a lot." ”

"How come, learn hard, don't be afraid of bad, you will always meet someone stronger than you, you follow the strong to learn, and one day you will become a strong person." The servant put his hand on his shoulder, but he felt supported.

Pei Xu smiled: "Well, isn't it time for us to go." ”

"Hey, it's been such a big turn, it's time for us to go."

The men took him on horseback, and he almost fainted on the first horseback. "Ahh

Pei Xu felt dizzy when he landed, and his stomach turned over and almost vomited.

Menzi came over to lead the horse, "Oh, isn't this Dalang?" ”

Pei Xu thought that he was really a descendant of the Han family, but he didn't expect that he was the eldest son of Han Jin, the Duke of Jin.

"I came to see my uncle, but I didn't expect to meet such a child. It just so happened that the next man couldn't bring him here, so I took him by the way. He said.

"Please come in."

"It turns out that you are not a descendant of the Han family, but a ...... Son. Pei Xu thought for a long time before he thought of this word.

"yes."

He grimaced, "Pretending to look like it." But why not change into a plain dress, and look at the embroidery on the sleeves. ”

The embroidered flowers are not found in the clothes of the lower man, which is not conspicuous, but it is enough to prove his identity.

The man smiled happily: "You are not an ignorant child. Treat each other with sincerity, my name is Han Fu, and I am the son of Han Jin, the Duke of Jin. Today's Guogong is my uncle. ”

"Well, shouldn't it be you?"

Why is it not the son who inherits the father's business, but the brother who dies with the younger brother?

Han Fu smiled: "Then, when my father died, we were too young to afford the entire family business, and ah, I don't want to be an official, being a carefree gentleman is my pursuit." I like to look everywhere without an official body. ”

Pei Xu still said in the tone of a little adult: "You can see it." ”

"You kid, why do you talk weirdly?" Han Fu leaned over to look at him, as if he hadn't washed his face this morning and had stains on his face.

He puffed up, "Don't look at me like that. ”

"Hahahaβ€”you're such a little adult." Han Fu couldn't help pinching his nose.

Pei Xu broke his hand and frowned, "It hurts." ”

"My uncle would be glad to see you. He's a favorite weird kid like you. Han Fu took him away.

This rain is like a sudden storm, although this rain cannot destroy anyone, but it is also shocking and impressive. In fact, this is no longer a memory, what is clearer and more painful than a memory is the imprint.

There are many such traces on Yun Zhao's body, and they are spliced together one by one, forming her life. Life is short and long, with both sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, but these tend to be dull with time, and in the end, it is difficult to eat. But she thinks that no matter how she lives, it is better to live her life safely, and if she can't, then she will be alone.

Now is the critical autumn of the entire Yiyuan belonging, if you don't make a decision, I'm afraid there will be no chance.

When Yun Zhao came out, she visited the entire Yi Garden, which was once owned by the Han family and was given to her by her grandfather after his death. But everything had changed, and in the blink of an eye it had become the place of her strange aunt and uncle. Time can turn mulberry fields into the sea, and the sea fills into mulberry fields. If it's just for these sorrows, I'm afraid I can't be sad.

She knew very well that her current strength was too thin, and no one could help her. In other words, she lacks a strong backer, Feng Jian's backer Shi is the elder of the court, so what about her, this power comes from the Feng family, from Mrs. Liu, and even from her mother. But she was a scattered leaf, a broken leaf that had been knocked down to the muddy ground by this rain.

"It's really deserted, and there's no atmosphere at all." Wan Zhao sneered secretly.

The house is very large and there are many people, but the atmosphere is gone. Aunt Luo's former residence was sealed, and Wan Zhao had no way to check the scene inside. I can't even find a little bit of it, it's just that false shelf.
