The words were divided into two ends, and when Gu Changfeng appeared, Xie Ci's heart felt a sense of complexity that he had never felt before.

Duan Ling'er only glanced at Gu Changfeng, and this glance was like a golden willow in the darkness of spring, and the snow rushed away from the white jade plum, containing endless deep meaning.

Xie Ci couldn't help but tell himself in his heart that Duan Ling'er hadn't looked at him with such enthusiastic eyes.

He suddenly remembered the appearance of Gu Changfeng and Duan Ling'er looking at each other at the lantern festival at that time, although he often recalled the appearance of the two of them looking at each other at that time, and he felt upset, but at this time, he really didn't need Duan Ling'er to say anything, Xie Ci already knew that in her mind, this Gu Gongzi was many times more important than herself.

Xie Ci is open-minded and hearty, although he is sad for a while, he can also explain himself.

After all, that dream was her own dream, not Duan Ling'er's, and I heard that Gu Gongzi and Duan Ling'er were old neighbors, and they had childhood sweethearts, or, in the dream, the reason why she shed tears was also because of feelings that had nothing to do with her.

Thinking of this, a trace of bitterness appeared in Xie Ci's throat, but what he said was: "There will be a lot of people in the market for a while, and a few girls must not be separated." ”

Gu Changfeng observed Xie Ci for a long time, and finally spoke: "Gongzi Xie, I heard that you are already a fast catcher now, in the past, you and I lived on different streets, and there was no intersection, but when we meet today, we have a different look." ”

Xie Yu also shook his fist politely: "Gu Gongzi." ”

The two of them seemed to have nothing to do, and talked about the situation in the rickety carriage.

Duan Ling'er looked at Gu Changfeng in front of her, thinking that she was going to go to Xiuchun Pavilion again a while ago, she had written a letter to Gu Changfeng, wanting to ask Gu Changfeng to take her there, but Gu Changfeng did not reply for a long time, until many days later, the reply received was even more reprimanded.

Duan Ling'er turned her eyes away and looked at the beautiful scenery of red apricot deep flowers and shallow calamus buds outside the carriage.

This man probably really doesn't understand himself.

Just thinking about it, he just listened to Xie Xi and had a heated chat with Gu Changfeng about the situation.

When the two talked about the current situation, Gu Changfeng suddenly asked Xie Ci: "Gongzi Xie, if Ningcheng in Northern Xinjiang is lost, what will happen in the future?" ”

Xie Ci thought for a while and replied: "The snow disaster in Daliang is serious, and many sheep and horses have frozen to death in recent years, and because of the harsh terrain environment, there is no good harvest of grain. ”

Gu Changfeng nodded: "Fortunately, General Guo has been stationed in Ningcheng, and the emperor has also ordered to appease the border people, and he has also sent a lot of cattle and horses to Daliang, I believe that through harmony, the border situation can be eased." ”

Xie Ci shook his head, and he didn't agree with what Gu Changfeng said in his heart, but the two had a new relationship, so it was inconvenient to refute him, so he had to smile and not answer.

Gu Changfeng said again: "Gongzi Xie, I want to ask for advice again, if one day the northern frontier is not defended, and it will invade Kyushu in the blink of an eye, may it be borrowed to raise money?" ”

Xie Ci thought about it carefully, and calmly replied: "Kyushu is the prosperous era, my Great Zhou is also strong and the people are rich, if one day the Great Liang really becomes a prairie fire, the court will also be full of strength, now there is Guo Shuai's talent in the court, and there are several famous generals, as long as the emperor knows how to use people, Kyushu is safe and secure, and when the situation is a little stable, I can't wait for the troops to come to the border again."

, the best strategy is to go out to meet the enemy. But when it comes to wars and wars, no matter who wins or loses, it is the people who suffer in the end. ”

Xue Zheng and the others all stared at the thanks, and high-fived and applauded: "What a good one to go out to meet the enemy!" ”

Gu Changfeng also nodded, and was greatly impressed in his heart.

Only Duan Ling'er was not surprised, she had seen Xie Ci kill red-eyed in her previous life, but now Xie Ci often takes the word "people" to heart, and I don't know why she later became such a murderous and unblinking god of war.

Gu Changfeng was slightly excited, and didn't seem to take the last sentence of the thank you to heart, but said, "Not bad!" Since maybe one day our Great Zhou will have to fight against the Great Liang, why not take advantage of the current prosperity and strike first? ”

Duan Ling'er frowned: "Strike first?" ”

Gu Changfeng nodded: "Now the Kyushu of the Great Zhou Dynasty is incomparable to the past dynasties. If the emperor is determined to open up the territory, then it will be easy to reach the extreme edge of the land from the center of the land. ”

Xie Ci pondered for a moment and said: "Expanding the territory, the prosperity of the final martial arts may be unmatched in ancient times. It's just that the emperor alone is majestic, but the world doesn't know how many bones have accumulated and how many tears of orphans and widows have been shed. is so heroic, and from another point of view, it is also a person who sells fame and reputation. ”

Gu Changfeng's face changed, his eyebrows were raised, he didn't expect Xie Ci to say such a big rebellious remark, but seeing Xie Ci looking at him fearlessly, Gu Changfeng said coldly: "What did you say?" ”

Duan Ling'er didn't wait for a thank you answer, and said first: "To open up the territory, you have to kill many people, shed a lot of blood, and occupy so much land, what is the use in the end?" ”

"The woman's words." Gu Changfeng said coldly.

Xie Ci had a pair of awe-inspiring eyes: "Since the heroes are admired by the world and admired by future generations, they must be people who benefit the people and love the people." In my opinion, killing a lot of people is not necessarily a hero. If the generals go south and west every year, and the monarchs ignore the accumulation of corpses, it is difficult to say whether the merit is right or wrong. ”

Gu Changfeng shook his head, looked at Xie Ci incredulously, pursed his lips tightly, and seemed to hear a big rebellion that subverted the concept.

Xue Zheng Cheng Su seemed to be shocked by Xie Ci's words, although Ruyi didn't understand it very well, but he liked this young man more in his heart, and several people had their own thoughts in their hearts, and they all stopped talking in unison, and were silent thinking about their own thoughts.

Less than half a pillar of incense, the carriage arrived at the bazaar.

The market was really crowded, and only the cries of hawkers could be heard.

"Fresh fruit! Take a look, big and sweet fruit! ”

"Fine spices! The finest fabric, the only hair oil in the palace! The queen has used! Girls don't miss ......"

"Scone scone bacha! Donkey meat scones! Just five copper plates! ”

It was lively, people coming and going, bustling. Hurried pedestrians, chattering vendors, wanderers, and village women put on new clothes, fetched water to clean their faces, official powder rubbed their faces, rouge wiped their cheeks, and smeared osmanthus oil on their heads and crowded into the crowd, all of which were full of Nana.

There is also a noble boy riding a horse, and a high-ranking girl in a carriage...... All kinds of people stop at the market.

And the place where the puppet show is played is surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

This puppet troupe is used to perform

Zi, very famous, the puppet hand rod manipulation technology is called "skewer gong", different however, the puppet hands used by this troupe are equipped with a bearing of the silk fan, the weight is two or three times the weight of the ordinary puppet wooden hand, when the double fan is unfolded, the puppet in the completion of some actions when the direction of the wheel is the logic is opposite, so, in the early stage of training, the practice of habit of the wheel of the strength and angle are more difficult than other ordinary puppet shows.

I saw that the artists used the unconventional twisting method, the tiger's mouth, the five fingers are responsible for their own responsibilities, and they are used separately to complete the fan action in the performance, closing the fan, spreading the fan, shaking the fan, turning the palm fan, pressing the palm fan, lifting the fan, shoulder support fan, side standing fan, turning the fan, fixing the fan, holding the fan and other complex actions in one go, attracting bursts of applause.

Several people also crowded over there to watch happily, Duan Ling'er and Gu Changfeng stood side by side, Duan Ling'er slapped his face, but Gu Changfeng said: "Ling'er, a few days ago, you said that you were going to a place like Xiuchun Pavilion, this idea has been dispelled, right?" And how can you talk and walk with that thanksgiving today? After all, you are a girl's family, how can you be so close to a strange man? ”

When Duan Ling'er heard this, she felt that there was a lot of accusation in her words, and she raised her eyebrows: "How can Xie Ci be considered a strange man?" And you are also a man, I can talk to you, why can't I talk to others? ”

Gu Changfeng's face turned pale: "Can this be the same?" Sooner or later, you will marry me. ”

Duan Ling'er's face turned red suddenly, although she was very dissatisfied with Gu Changfeng just now, but her words were too sweet, so she also thought that Gu Changfeng was jealous, so her face was a little softened, and she didn't want to argue with him anymore.

Gu Changfeng saw that Duan Ling'er stopped talking, thinking that he had persuaded her, and his heart eased slightly, and then said: "You can't go to a place like Xiuchun Pavilion. ”

Duan Ling'er didn't answer, took out a hazelnut from her pocket, and diverted the topic: "Here you go." ”

Gu Changfeng took the hazelnut: "This is?" ”

Duan Ling'er's skin remained as white as ever, and she smiled sweetly: "According to the legend of Goguryeo, when you feel uncomfortable, bite the hazelnuts and make a wish, and the ghosts and gods who defend the house will help you realize your heart......'s wish."

Gu Changfeng didn't wait for Duan Ling'er to finish speaking, then smiled: "Do you also believe this kind of lie to deceive children?" Ling'er, if you want to be a good concubine and serve your husband, this kind of childish thing must not be done again, but there are still several years before you and Lu, you can change it slowly. ”

Duan Ling'er's face changed drastically: "Concubine room? ”

Gu Changfeng looked innocent: "Naturally, now I am already the son of a second-grade high-ranking family, and I recognize it in the name of our eldest lady of the Gu Mansion, although I like you, but this position in the main room must be the right official lady, you are a businessman's concubine, and it is already a good marriage match to be a good concubine of the Gu Mansion." When you are admitted to the Gu Mansion and have a son and a half daughter, although you have to be raised in my main room, I love you, and I will give you two more days of opportunity to get together every month. You just need to be obedient, don't mess around like now, and you can enjoy a lifetime of wealth in the Gu Mansion, which is not in vain for you and me. ”

A good match?

Gu Fuliang's concubine?

Duan Ling'er looked straight at Gu Changfeng, looking at him under the high bridge of his nose, his extremely thin lips were pressed up and down, and he said these words like flowing water.

She looked at him like this, as if she had never known the person in front of her.
