Chapter 69: The Long Road (Finale)

Is everything ready? Shen Li took Qingxing's hand, entered the courtyard and asked Zi Mo, who was standing on the porch.

"It's all ready, and the clothes are washed and dried in the morning when it was sunny before. The rest of the furnishings and furnishings and furnishings, the slaves and maids have just seen them one by one. Zi Mo bowed and replied.

"That's good, Uncle Rong and Senior Brother can probably spend the New Year here before leaving, maybe they can go to Beijing with us then. Be careful, and you and Filu will be here to wait. Shen Li thought of the content of Rong Yin's letter, and his face was filled with some joy.

"Yes."

"Qingxing, you followed Uncle Rong before, you go and see if there is anything to add. I'm panicking right now, and I can't settle down. Shen Li patted Qingxing's hand again and pushed it.

Qingxing helped her sit on the chair on the porch, and said with a smile: "What is there to worry about Mrs. Zimo's work, I think even if I order it again, I'm afraid that Mrs. will not be sure." ”

Shen Li sighed and looked at the little greenery in the courtyard. "You don't know, if I wasn't pregnant now, I wouldn't want to go to Yunzhou to pick up my uncle in person." Except for Gu Yun, no one can understand her current mood, after two lifetimes, she and Yunzhuang are not separated by a few months.

Everything she has been given by Rong Yin since she was a child, and even her greatest confidence in daring to come here thousands of miles away from her homeland is due to Rong Yin standing behind her.

And what she can't forgive herself the most is that when Rong Yin was suffering, she didn't know anything and was still greedy for everything Rong Yin gave her.

If it weren't for the fact that it didn't allow it, she wished that Rong Yin would always be by her side. Uncle Rong has no children, she should have been the child raised by Uncle Rong, and what is wrong with raising Uncle Rong until he is old.

"Let's ask Chang'an ......" Before Shen Li's words were finished, Gu Jin's voice came from the gate of the courtyard.

"Sister-in-law."

She stopped talking and turned around, and found Gu Jin standing beside a clump of green bamboos looking at her side.

"Second brother!" Shen Li greeted with a smile, "Why did you come here in person, is there something looking for me?" ”

Gu Yun and Yun Taigong went to Zhongjia Beizhuang today, Gu Jin also knew about this matter, even if he came here now, he must have come to find himself.

"Is my sister-in-law busy now? Can I talk to my sister-in-law for a while, so as not to delay my sister-in-law's time. Gu Jin walked over and stood under the porch and said with a smile.

Shen Ning thought about it and stood up, pointing to the warm hall on the side of the wing room that had been cleaned up. "Where are we going to sit and talk, they are coming and going here, so as not to make the second brother uncomfortable."

"Okay, there's Sister-in-law Lao." Gu Jin nodded in response.

The two of them went to sit there, and Qingxing served them good tea and quietly stepped aside. "The second brother was wronged first, and I can't drink tea now, so I can only drink some clear spring water with me."

"It's okay, I don't really care about that. The one who pays attention to this in this house is probably Aunt Wei, and even his father doesn't care much about this. At the mention of Aunt Wei, Gu Jin's expression darkened a little. He still doesn't quite fit in with his identity, and he can't force himself to face the Wei family who really cares about him. Sometimes, just talking about benefits can really make people a lot easier.

Shen Li warmed his hands with tea, and said softly: "Second brother has something to ask me for, just ask." ”

Gu Jin looked at the teacup on the table, the delicate porcelain light was soft in his hand, and it was warm to the touch like jade. This kind of craftsmanship was only in the hands of craftsmen in the north, and was presented to the imperial palace as a tribute, and even the powerful and wealthy families did not necessarily get one.

"When my sister-in-law should give this marriage, was she afraid?" Gu Jin suddenly said softly,

Shen Li was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Gu Jin with understanding, but turned his eyes away before the other party noticed. "Of course. After all, it's so far away from home, and there is no one around who knows each other. I don't believe it myself. ”

"But the relationship between the eldest brother and the sister-in-law is very good, you didn't know each other before, but you can get married in just one month, and the relationship is very beautiful." Gu Jin's expression was a little shy, and there was some confusion that he hadn't noticed. "Can two people really be happy when they come together like this? The eldest brother was actually a very dull person before, but now he laughs a lot, and he is very kind, sometimes I feel that the eldest brother seems to be very similar to the deceased mother, but before this, the eldest brother's temperament is obviously very much like his father. ”

Shen Li smiled slightly, she couldn't help but think of the days of her previous life, "Your eldest brother is a very good person. When two people come together, there must be one side who has to back down a little more. In this regard, your eldest brother has been very considerate of me. Second brother, if you really have a girl you want to marry, whether you really like her or not, at least make sure that you have the same temperament. Otherwise, you are not doing her good, but harming her. Because two people who can't say that they can't live together for a lifetime. Especially if you two brothers are of this temperament, they are not good at arguing with others. When something happens, you will just run over and digest it yourself, but in this way, the people around you will be more uncomfortable. I don't know why the second brother came to me today to ask this question, but think twice. Sometimes protecting something doesn't come at a sacrificial level. You should ask the person what they want most, not just what you can give. ”

Gu Jin's eyes were a little dazed, with a little youthful softness.

Shen Li didn't feel a little soft-hearted, in her previous life, Gu Jin did take a lot of care of her. In the entire palace, except for Gu Yun, the second son is probably the one who has good intentions towards him.

"You don't have to rush to figure out something at this moment, no matter what happens, there is always a time for the New Year." Shen Li smiled and said with relief.

Gu Jin raised his head and smiled, the leaves in the courtyard were shining golden in the sun. Gu Jin suddenly went to pick up a fallen leaf with some childishness. He raised his head to meet the sun, "When I was very young, my mother once told us that people will always suffer a lot of grievances because of various things in their lives, so I don't really care too much about this. But my sister-in-law's concern makes me very happy. ”

Shen Li was a little curious, the first princess died early, it stands to reason that Gu Jin was so young back then, what kind of situation would make the first princess say such a thing to a child who did not know the world. "Why, you were only so old back then, and you encountered such an annoying thing?"

"I want to make my sister-in-law laugh, but it wasn't because of any big thing back then. It's just that the birthday gift given to me by my eldest brother was broken. I was young at that time, and I didn't dare to tell my father, so I secretly hid in the flower room and was sad. It just so happened that my mother went to the flower room to enjoy the flowers and saw me, so she said these words to me to comfort me. He said this in a more gentle tone, and there was a natural admiration in his expression. You haven't seen your mother, and if you did, you'd love her. The concubine has a generous temperament, and she does not neglect children like ordinary adults, and always puts us in the position of adults to talk to us. It's a pity that the mother passed away early, otherwise our house would have been different. ”

At that time, Mrs. Feng was annoyed that he was close to the former princess and Concubine Zhong, and there was a big fuss in his room on his birthday. He felt faceless and deeply aggrieved, but because he was his biological mother, he didn't dare to confide in front of his father. Concubine Zhong is also a cool person, if she tells her about it, she is afraid that she will make a fuss on the spot. In the end, he had no choice, so he had to secretly hide in the flower room alone after strictly controlling the people in the courtyard.

The princess cooked shou noodles for him and sent them to the courtyard, but she didn't find him, but after a few words of interrogation, she learned the inside story. found him in the flower room who was about to faint from crying, took him back to wash his face, and cooked him a bowl of longevity noodles again. During the whole process, he neither blamed his mother in front of him, nor did he mention the previous incident.

Just tell him: Many times, people have no choice but to bear many things. But unlike others, you can choose how you feel and how you want to deal with him.

At that time, he did not understand what those words meant, and the princess did not seem to expect him to understand on the spot. The two of them finished the bowl of noodles, one big and one small, and then the princess let him rest in her courtyard with his eldest brother that night. Tell them stories and amuse them, and he didn't know that the princess was in poor health at that time, if he knew. Gu Jin unconsciously clenched his fist, and then let go of his hand in the fine cold wind.

Shen Li looked behind her, and for some reason she also wanted to sigh. Fortunately, it is a second chance, and everyone has a second chance, otherwise if it is the ending like in the previous life, who can be at ease?

The flowing water under the covered bridge rattled around the small stones in various streams and flowed happily downward.

Wei Hezhi was wearing a mink fur, leaning on the vermilion fence and watching the white mist rise faintly from it, and the expression on his face was a little dim.

"It's really strange that the prince has enjoyed the old man's meticulous care for so many years, and he doesn't even want to renew the old man's life. So you see, what's the use of an old man having so many sons and daughters? At the critical moment, I couldn't even find a person who sincerely served the decoction. ”

Feiguang held the sword on the side and didn't answer his words. Talking about the king in vain is a capital crime for the nine clans.

"In fact, it's no wonder that they can't be blamed, no matter who has been guarded by their father for more than ten years, they can't feel much more comfortable when they think about it. You say, should we go back to Beijing early? Wei Hezhi tilted his head and looked at the red maple not far away,

"It depends on the master's own will." Feiguang hung his head and replied.

"It's really boring, it's not good to talk to you, the streamer still knows how to say a few words, and when you get to it, you will become a gourd without a mouth, and you can't spit out half a word."

"The streamer is on duty today, if the master wants to, his subordinates will immediately go and replace her." Feiguang still lowered his head and replied,

Wei Hezhi turned around strangely, "Are you angry?" I'm not angry, why are you angry? ”

"The master intervened today, and there will be endless troubles in the future. You have endured for so many years, everything is ready and you only owe the east wind, so why bother to pay for the previous dormant for this little thing. Feiguang frowned, raised his head proudly and said, "Your Majesty has never treated you as a prince at all over the years, and no father will throw his children into the wolf's den to hunt." What's more, if you return to Beijing at this time, the crown prince and the four princes will only immediately point the finger at you, we are not even the foundation of the Southern Regions now, how can we show our strength at this time. ”

Wei Hezhi stretched out his hand and flicked it on Feiguang's forehead. "I know that you feel sorry for your master, don't worry, I have measure. What's more, I'm not just trying to fulfill my filial piety as a son, I've been away from Beijing for many years, and I should go back to see my mother's concubine. At this time, even if there are more people next to my mother, I am also a little worried. Heavenly home is originally a place where there is not much warmth. The more fiercely they fight, the more agitated the situation will be. But you let the streamers don't think much about it, I will always wait until I meet with the people in Yunzhou before leaving. Hasn't Gu Yun already shown his sincerity? Then I'm looking forward to how he will deal with the Zhong family's affairs this time. ”

Feiguang rubbed his somewhat reddened forehead and muttered, "You've already made up your mind anyway, and I know I can't persuade you." ”

"It's man-made, and there's nothing to escape. No matter what he does to me, I will not be able to forsake my duty as a son of man. What's more, I'm curious to see where they can go now. After all, as long as I go up, sooner or later I will have to follow them. Rather than being unjustifiable, it is better for me to send them a handle, so as not to embarrass everyone. ”

"How many people do we need to transfer back?"

"You and Streamer will transfer everyone below you to enter Beijing first, and I will wait to meet with the people from Yunzhou before setting off later. Remember, no matter what happens, don't act rashly without my instructions. Wei Hezhi turned his back and commanded.

"Yes."

"Then the family, should we try to contact it?" Feiguang asked with some hesitation.

"No, you can't be greedy, and besides, there are too many things involved behind them, and I don't want to make such a big move for the time being." Wei Hezhi waved his hand and rejected Feiguang's proposal.

"That'...... What if they come to the door? ”

"It depends on who." Wei Hezhi's thick black eyebrows raised slightly, "I don't want anyone to pounce." ”

"Yes!"

"Go ahead, just keep in touch with the flying pigeons."

"Yes, Childe, what about this side?"

"It's good to transfer the floating light over for a while, I don't have anything else to do during this time anyway, and I don't need too many people to serve on the side."

"Yes, then the subordinate retreated first."

"Well, go ahead."

On the covered bridge, tranquility was restored. Wei Hezhi turned to lean against the marble pillar and looked up at the gray sky. The desolate cold air crept down his brown fur collar and into his neck, and he sighed heavily with his eyes closed.

Something soft, soft and a little cool, fell on his face one by one.

The eyes of the thick ink opened instantly, and the first heavy snow that had been blowing in the southern regions finally fell.
