Cutting Power (6)

Comb said,

"Miss?"

Seeing that the palace chief was still out of a trance, she called again,

"Miss."

Gong Changjue woke up from his contemplation and looked at Comb,

"What's wrong?"

Comb said,

"Miss, you've been in a trance, but what's going on?"

The palace chief said,

"It's nothing, I just accidentally got distracted."

Comb said,

"Miss, do you want to do something, usually at this time, you will read books, practice calligraphy, or practice swords."

Gong Changjue raised his eyes to look at Comb,

That was her in her previous life.

The palace chief said,

"Bring me my jade qin."

Comb was a little surprised,

"Miss wants to practice?"

"Slave maid go and call you a luthier."

The palace chief said,

"No need."

"Just bring the piano."

Hearing this, Comb Yan brought the jade broken qin, put it in front of the palace chief, and wiped it with a cloth towel.

Miss has always disliked playing the piano, and once upon a time, when the luthier who taught came, she only asked someone to go back. Over time, the matter of learning the piano has been delayed, and until now, the young lady has not touched the piano a few times, and now it is all dusty.

Comb Yan wanted to open her mouth again and ask the palace chief if she wanted to invite a violinist.

But I saw Gong Changjue put his right hand on the piano, put his thumb on the index finger, and pushed the index finger down, but the wrist was no more than the knuckle of the index finger.

Qingling's piano sound was in the room.

Comb's eyes were puzzled,

Miss looks like this, why does she look like she can play the piano? It looks like it's still presentable.

Before Comb could ask, he saw Gong Changjue's slender ten fingers lingering on the piano.

The sound of the piano like water ripples in my ears.

It seemed to be melancholy, and in an instant, there was a bit of clanging, as if a young bud was struggling to break through the ground in the solid stone. It was cold and astringent, and the young bud gritted his teeth, and used all his strength to impact the gap that revealed a little bit of light, and the young bud rubbed the skin and flowed out of the pulp, and hit the stone wall desperately with the top of his bud.

At the climax, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.

And that sorrow is still in people's hearts, and it has not gone for a long time.

Gong Changjue pressed the strings, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Comb Yan was distracted.

It took a while for me to come to my senses,

"Miss, you play too well, even better than Miss Watch."

"Just ......"

The palace chief said,

"Just what?"

Comb said,

"Miss, when did you practice the piano, and you can play it even better than Miss Watch."

Looking at the smiling face of the comb, Gong Changjue was in a trance in front of his previous life.

She was playing the harp in the house, and the officers and soldiers who raided the house came without warning.

Soldiers in armor rushed into the ancestral hall of the palace family, and those soldiers wanted to knock down the tablet incense case of the palace family.

The palace chief ran to the ancestral hall, stepped forward to block in front of those tablets, and said word by word,

"This is the ancestral hall of the Gong family, and non-descendants of the Gong family are not allowed to enter."

The soldiers pushed her away, and she fell the incense case, her arm completely numb and unconscious.

After a moment, she gritted her teeth and got up, desperately protecting those tablets, and scolded angrily,

"As long as there is one person left in my palace family, you don't want to offend the ancestors of the palace family!"

The official who led the troops to raid the house entered and said contemptuously to the palace chief,

"Miss Gong, if you are smart, you should know each other, looking at the face of the Zuo family, I can be polite to you, what is the use of you now guarding a pile of useless rotten wood?"

The palace chief's eyes are blood-red,

"These fifty-seven tablets are the ancestors of my palace family, without these fifty-seven tablets to protect the Great Zhou with their lives during their lifetimes, can you still show off your power here and frame Zhongliang!"

Gong Changjue pointed to the person in front of him,

"You are just ants on a vegetarian diet, enjoying the offerings of the people, but doing the dirtiest things in the world! You don't even have the qualifications to kneel in front of the ancestors of the palace family! ”

The official looked at the palace chief and sneered

"You're just a woman, you're still a woman with a bad reputation, you can stand here in a dignified manner, why can't I?"

Gong Changjue said loudly

"You're worthy of it!"

"Whether you are dirty or not, God can see it clearly, you colluded with the faint monarch and plunged the palace family to hell. In order to keep your pitiful power, in your eyes, there has never been a common people, only endless greed, you treacherous and filthy villains, everyone will be punished! ”

The official sneered,

"Nowadays, everyone is punished by the Gong family, what else is the palace family proud of, these tablets are all evidence of treason against the enemy, come and smash me!"

The palace chief blocked the tablet and glared angrily,

"Unless I die here, you don't want to tear down this tablet. If the Zuo family knows, they will definitely not let you go! ”

The officer draws his sword,

"Then you'll die here!"

The sword came straight towards Gong Changjue, and just when the sword was about to stab Gong Changjue, Comb Yan rushed out and blocked in front of Gong Changjue, and the sword stabbed into Comb's heart.

Comb's pupils dilated for a moment.

Gong Changjue lost his voice,

"Comb!"

Comb Yan slowly fell to the ground, tightly grasping the corner of the palace chief's skirt, smiling, but tears flowed, intermittently, like a gossamer,

"Miss... Comb ...... I can't accompany Miss anymore. ”

"Miss... Want... You have to live well. ”

Comper's blood gushed out from her heart, soaking the corners of Gong Changjue's skirt, and Gong Changjue knelt down and hugged Comb, crying bitterly, "Comb..."

But she had closed her eyes and lost her breath.

The beautiful face is extremely white.

The memories of his past life came flooding back, and the palace chief's eyes were moist.

Comb said,

"Miss?"

"Miss—"

The palace chief came back to his senses.

Combi said with a smile,

"Miss is distracted again."

Gong Changjue looked at Comb Yan and smiled slowly.

God gave her another chance, and she will make good use of this opportunity to protect all the people she wants to protect, and never let the tragedy happen again.

Comb said with a smile,

"Miss, you haven't answered me yet. Why are you suddenly so good at playing? ”

The palace chief slightly opened his lips and said,

"I had a dream."

Comb said,

"Did Miss learn to play the piano in a dream?"

The palace chief said,

"Yes, there was a god who taught me to play the piano in a dream."

Comb the face of surprise,

"It must have been a dream."

Gong Changjue smiled, but his heart was sinking,

It's a terrible nightmare.

Comb said happily,

"My young lady is really blessed by the gods. In my dreams, there are fairy sect ladies playing the piano. ”

Before the palace chief could answer, he heard the commotion outside, and a servant girl stumbled into the house, laughing and saying loudly,

"Eldest Miss, the old man and the second master are back!"

When the palace chief heard this, he stood up,

"Father? Father and uncle are back? ”

The handmaid said,

"Miss, let's go, now the old man and the second master are in the front hall."

Before the words fell, Gong Changjue ran out of the door.

Gong Changjue ran to the front hall and saw Gong Yun and Gong Zhan in armor, both of whom had some slight injuries on their faces.

Gong Changjue rushed forward and hugged Gong Yun.

"Father!"

Gong Yun and Gong Zhan laughed.

Gong Yunlang said,

"Come, see my baby girl."

Gong Yun patted Gong Changjue's shoulder and said with a smile,

"Well, I've grown a lot taller, much taller than when I left with your uncle a year ago."

Gong Changjue smiled, but tears fell,

Gong Zhan smiled,

"Why are you still crying?"

Gong Changjue raised his eyes and looked at the smiling faces of Gong Yun and Gong Zhan, the two of them stood in the hall, there were still some mud and blood stains on their clothes, but they were full of energy, which was completely different from the sore appearance of being whipped in the dungeon in their previous life.

Gong Zhan Dao,

"I've heard about what happened these days, and your father and I didn't think about the Meng family's Laoshzi sister-in-law, like a sissy, I didn't expect to dare to do such a thing."

Gong Zhan patted Gong Changjue's head,

"This kind of dead sissy is not worthy of our long tips, uncle will find you a better looking than him, taller than him, stronger than him, and higher than him in martial arts, if you can't do it, you will go to the barracks with your uncle, which one you like, and your uncle will let him marry you, and if you don't marry, you have to marry."

The palace chief broke into tears and laughed,

"Isn't my uncle like this, taking and robbing the people."

Gong Yun poked Gong Zhan with his elbow, pretending to be angry,

"What do you say?"

"Are you choosing a guard or a husband for the chief?"

The palace chief smiled.

A mother-in-law stepped forward and said,

"Master, the second miss has been sick recently, take a look, do you want to go and see the second miss."

Gong Zhan Dao,

"Why is this girl always sick, you must take her to the hunting ground to practice in the future, otherwise the horse won't be able to ride, and it's too unlike the people of the palace family."

Gong Changjue didn't speak, Gong Yuanling has a different personality from her since she was a child, Gong Yuanling is soft and weak, frail and sickly, and has always been cherished, and she has followed her father and uncle since she was a child, has been to the northwest, raced horses, and competed in archery.

Gong Yuanling has known how to please people since she was a child, and when adults are angry, she pretends to be sick.

When the eyes of the adults were focused on Gong Changjue, Gong Yuanling pretended to be weak and took everyone's attention away from her.

Gong Changjue has always been the eldest sister and has not competed with her for anything. In fact, in my previous life, I also minded in my heart.

Gong Changjue has always disliked to expose his emotions, he doesn't know how to please people, he looks clever, but he is actually clumsy, whenever his ability to see grows and he receives praise from adults, Gong Yuanling always has a way to turn the eyes of adults to himself. And Gong Changjue doesn't fight, but he is secretly unwilling and sad, but he learns to care about Gong Yuanling like an adult.

So no matter how unhappy I am in my heart, I won't show it, and for Gong Yuanling, I have repeatedly tolerated it, and I have done my duty as an eldest sister.

The relationship between the two sisters has never been good.

Gong Yuanling is often opportunistic, likes to be lazy, and likes to work hard, most of which he learned from Aunt Wan. But in fact, Gong Yuanling just likes to be in the limelight, a little cautious, and his nature is still good.

At least, it has never harmed anyone.

Now, in her first life, the grievances and discomforts she had in her heart have disappeared, and she remembers that when Gong Yuanling was insulted by the jailers, her heartache was like a cone.

Even if there is a disagreement, they are still sisters and a family.

If she has the opportunity, in this life, she wants to correct Gong Yuanling's temperament, which can be regarded as making up for the alienation caused by the weak relationship between sisters in the previous life.

Gong Yundao,

"Now that I have changed my clothes, I have to go to the palace, and if I am sick, I am afraid that I will have to come back to see her."

As soon as Gong Yun's words fell, a girl in a purple shirt ran out and said aggrievedly,

"Father is eccentric! I only look at my sister and don't look at me. ”

Gong Yun and Gong Zhan laughed,

Gong Zhan Dao,

"You girl, opportunistic."

Gong Yundao,

"This time, my father really doesn't have time to see you, but my father brought you the night pearl of Qingzhou."

Gong Yun handed a box to Gong Yuanling, Gong Yuanling hurriedly opened it, and a round and full night pearl was exposed in front of him.

Gong Yuanling raised his eyebrows with joy, hugged Gong Yun's arm and said coquettishly,

"Father, the daughter didn't say that on purpose, who let the father not come to see his daughter. The daughter said angry words when she was angry. ”

Gong Yun didn't tear her down, and said with a smile,

"Father can go now, right?"

Gong Yuanling nodded like a chicken pecking rice,

"The daughter will wait for her father at home."

Gong Zhan laughed,

"It's really a person who knows the times as a handsome."

Gong Yun handed Gong Changjue a sword and said,

"When I left with your uncle, you said that you wanted to learn swordsmanship, and I found a Madame Xu sword, which I think is the most suitable for you."

Gong Changjue took it and said,

"Thank you, father."

When her father left, it was a year ago, at that time, she was full of Chu Ranxing, and when she heard that Chu Ranxing's swordsmanship was good, she thought about practicing swords.

Now... Now that everything is gone, she doesn't need this sword.

Gong Yun and Gong Zhan changed their clothes and entered the palace.

On the main hall, Emperor Yuan coughed a few times, and then said with a smile,

"Now that the Huns have surrendered, the two Aiqing have made meritorious contributions to protecting the country, and I am deeply grateful."

Emperor Yuan's gaze lingered on Gong Yun and Gong Zhan,

"I will give the plaque of 'Flowing through the Ages' written by the first emperor himself, and hope that the two Aiqing will always protect the Great Zhou and keep in mind the mission of the palace family."

Keeping in mind the mission of the palace family, as soon as the six words came out, many people's faces changed slightly.

Your Majesty... Is this knocking on the palace family or something?

Gong Yun's face did not change, and the two of them said loudly,

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long."

Yuan Di Dao,

"If I'm not mistaken, both of you are past the age of confusion."

Gong Yundao is.

Emperor Yuan coughed a few times, and the little eunuch beside him hurriedly presented a tray with a red-gold pill on the tray, and Emperor Yuan took it and took it. The ministers only thought it was a medicine for the cold.

Yuan Di Dao,

"Now the captain has a tiger talisman in his hand, and there are countless troops to be in charge, but now he has already passed the age of confusion, nearly fifty years old, and he can't think he can control it. In my heart, I also feel sorry for the many old injuries and hidden diseases that the captain has fallen on the battlefield. ”

When Gong Yun heard this, his eyes changed slightly, but he understood Emperor Yuan's intention in an instant.

The people in the court all came from the treacherous waves of officialdom, how could they not know what Emperor Yuan meant, and in an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Gong Yun.

In the main hall, the breath was stagnant for a moment.

Gong Yun knelt in his robe and said,

"The minister is indeed old, and now he has suffered many injuries, and he wants to rest more, and he also wants to hand over the tiger talisman to other capable people to take charge. Thank you for your kindness, and the minister also has this intention. ”

When Emperor Yuan heard this, a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes,

"Then hand over the tiger talisman to the court lieutenant Guan Wushu for temporary safekeeping, and train the army and take charge of the details."

Everyone's complexion changed, a court lieutenant in charge of the law is undoubtedly a civil official, even if this Guan Wuwu martial arts are high, he is not a military general who goes to the battlefield to fight, how can His Majesty hand over the military talisman to Guan Wuwu. What's more, now Guan Wuwu is just an upstart in his twenties, how can he be worthy of this big responsibility?

Guan Wuwu forgot to go out of the way,

"Commandment."

Before everyone could react, Emperor Yuan said again,

"General Guard."

Gong Zhan Dao,

"The minister is here."

Yuan Di Dao,

"I remember, you haven't married a wife yet?"

Gong Zhan Dao,

"Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuan smiled,

"It's me and this country that delayed you."

Gong Zhan knelt down and said,

"I don't dare."

Yuan Di Dao,

"I, I allow you to take leave, and if you are not married and have children, you are not allowed to come back."

Gong Zhan's face changed, his hand grasped his robe, and said in a deep voice,

"The Great Zhou Dynasty is important, and the minister is willing not to marry for life."

Emperor Yuan frowned,

"Needless to say, I really feel sorry for my two Aiqing, who have fought for the country for many years, but they have not lived their own lives, from now on, you two don't have to go to the early dynasty, you should get married, you should cultivate."

Emperor Yuan said that he was distressed, but he did not have a half-distressed expression.

Gong Zhan was about to refute, but he heard the eunuch beside Emperor Yuan say urgently,

"Retreat—"

As soon as the word retreat came out, Gong Yun and Gong Zhan understood that this matter was a certainty, and there was absolutely no possibility of reversal.

Your Majesty is now jealous of the palace family, and is determined to cut off the rights of the palace family, and the palace family is empty, without giving them half the right and opportunity to refute.

Gong Yun and Gong Zhan glanced at each other, and both of them had heavy eyes.

Finally... It's still this day.

The Gong family still came this far.

Gong Yun and Gong Zhan should have been happy when they returned to the palace house, but neither of them had the slightest joy.

The palace chief has served Gong Yun with dishes,

"What's on my father's mind?"

Gong Yun came back to his senses, forced a smile, and said,

"It's okay, maybe I'm tired from marching these days."

The palace chief did not doubt that he had him, but after a few days, he heard Comb say that Zuo Yaoqing came to the door.

Gong Changjue thought that Zuo Miaoqing was here to chat with her to relieve her boredom, but saw that Zuo Miaoqing was a little uneasy on his face.

Gong Changjue pushed the chess,

"Aoqing, do you have something to tell me?"

Zuo Yaoqing looked at Gong Changjue and hesitated,

"Have you heard any rumors lately?"

The palace chief said,

"What rumors?"
