Chapter 197: Falling ......

Chapter 197: Falling off the Cliff......

(Words count, first send a big chapter.) Make up for yesterday's arrears. If you have a vote, please vote for Yixin...... )

After resting for a while, the group continued to set off. Although they had only climbed one-third of the way, the mountain wind was cold and cold, and everyone was sweating at this time. If you continue to stay in this pavilion and blow the cold wind, I am afraid that after I go back, I will have to send a few hundred yuan of medicine money to Sun Simiao's old cow nose......

Since ancient Huashan Road, the more difficult this mountain road is. Halfway through the climb, the tiger's head can't even crawl, and it must be carried or held by a person to continue to move forward. It's not just the tiger head, even Xiaoxiao and a group of maids are already struggling to walk. Fortunately, Yao Shan and a group of guards with outstanding martial arts accompanied him, each of them broke a branch and dragged it in front, and the girls behind each held one, so they could barely continue to move forward. This reminded Xiaoxiao of the last time after the husband understood the yuan, the two climbed this Huashan, and there was the warm and powerful hand of the husband to hold it, but today there are only cold branches, which is really ...... Nostalgia......

Two-thirds of the way up, the guards were a little overwhelmed. Only Yao Shan and the royal guard could hold on, standing around the resting place on the lookout for the wind. But look at their bloodless faces and their heaving chests. It is estimated that they are also holding on. Men, when they have no choice, they always want to save face......

In later generations, the altitude of Mount Hua is 2,150 meters, that is, 700 zhang. The little ones they had to climb were only a little more than a third of them, that is, about a thousand meters, less than three hundred feet. It stands to reason that 1,000 meters above sea level is not a high mountain. But friends who have climbed the mountain know that whenever it is a famous place, this mountain is tortuous. It was only a thousand meters above sea level, but the winding stone steps were at least five or six thousand meters. In other words, the steep stone steps are five or six kilometers long, and there is a long way to go......

We all know that all believers in Buddhism and Taoism pay attention to hard work. Therefore, the road to Huashan is far from the regular stone steps of later generations, and in some places even several zhang away are primitive and steep mountain walls, and it is really thrilling to climb up......

After climbing for a while, the well-known Qingxu Taoist Temple on Huashan finally revealed a corner of the eaves and warped walls in the layers of mountains and jungles. Xiaoxiao and the others glanced at each other, and let out a burst of cheers in unison, finally arrived. It attracted a burst of laughter from several people dressed as Taoists next to him......

Hearing everyone's cheers, including his mother and grandmother, the tiger head riding on Yao Shan's neck also danced with excited hands, and he was not in shape as soon as he was excited. A pair of chubby hands used up all their strength............ Pull Yao Shan's hair......

O conscience of heaven and earth, people at this time are all hairy several feet long. A guard like Yao Shan, although he can't be as draped as those scholars who are crazy. Instead, he put his hair on his head in a regular way. But this is just convenient for the tiger head to do evil, and the tiger head is nearly two years old, so hard to grasp, suddenly Yao Shan gritted his teeth in pain, exhaled in pain, and hurriedly wanted to grab the tiger head's hands that were evil.

It was at this time that danger arose, and the position of their group was on the top of a mountain. The Qingxu Taoist Temple was in the forest below them, and they needed to walk down a steep stone staircase of about 500 meters to reach the destination of this trip. Yao Mountain, with a tiger's head on the top, was standing on the edge of the mountain at this time, with the steep stone steps in front of him and a bottomless cliff behind him. The tiger head grabbed his hair like that, and he reached out to grab the tiger's hand in pain, so that the center of gravity was a little unstable. At this moment, a fierce mountain wind blew, Yao Shan shook a few times, shouted a few times, and his body tilted towards the Wanzhang cliff behind. And at this time, the tiger's head was still on his neck......

……

On the eighth day of October, Beijing was in Chang'an.

Today is the first half of the month. Jiang Zhixuan and his father-in-law, Li Rusong, do not need to go to court. When they had nothing to do, Weng and his son-in-law sold a pot of wine, let the kitchen cook three or five side dishes, and drank and played chess in the back garden, which was very comfortable. After a few drinks, Jiang Zhixuan remembered that he had conspired with Li Qin last night, so he ordered someone to invite Li Qin over.

When Li Qin learned that his brother-in-law's letter had not been delivered to the Yiren, he was extremely disappointed, and he cried bitterly, with the virtue of longing to be martyred. Jiang Zhixuan had no choice but to swear a poisonous oath to heaven and earth, and he would definitely help him deliver the letter to the Miss Wu family> and find a way to make his father-in-law gradually loosen his mouth, which made Li Qin's mood better. In exchange, Li Qin finally agreed to cancel his sick leave and return to North Korea to work, which made Li Rusong very pleased.

I don't know if Li Qin's Shangguan deliberately rectified him because he hadn't been to the court for so long, as soon as he returned to the Hanlin Academy, Li Qin's Shangguan threw him a large number of subsets of scriptures and histories for him to sort out, and Li Qin's classmate, who had been skipping classes for several months, was so tired that he stuck out his tongue, and fell asleep every day when he returned home, and sometimes he didn't even want to use dinner.

Seeing his son working so hard, Li Rusong was relieved and distressed at the same time. So every day, he basically ordered someone to deliver food to his son's bedroom, and strictly ordered his subordinates that no one should disturb his son's "> rest" without reason. At this time, when he heard his son-in-law order someone to call him, he hurriedly said:

"Xuan'er, there's no need to call him, in the past ten days, Qin'er thinks he's tired. It's rare to rest today, so let him rest for a while! ”。

Jiang Zhixuan has already bought a house in the West Market, why is he still living with his father-in-law? Because he had no silver, after paying the silver ticket and getting the title deed that day, Jiang Zhixuan vigorously began to redecorate and paint Jiangfu's house in Beijing. He made up his mind to no longer let his beloved wife worry about Jingshi's house. Therefore, he kept all this in secret, and as a result, the house was halfway renovated and there was no silver. finally had the cheekiness to borrow money from his father-in-law, but his father-in-law Li Rusong actually blushed and said to him: "Xuan'er...... Not for the sake of the father being stingy...... but silver...... Whole...... It's all your mother-in-law in charge! I don't know where to look for my father......"

Jiang Zhixuan was dumbfounded, his mother-in-law is still in Huayin and his daughter-in-law are tired of crooked. In desperation, I had to write a letter to my beloved wife for help. In the letter, he did not say that he had bought the house and had begun to renovate it, but only that he had encountered a few initial embarrassments in the same year, and that the silver taels and large money had been funded in those same years, and that he had handed over the 5,000 yuan ticket to his father-in-law for safekeeping, and he was embarrassed to take it back. Let his beloved wife bring him another five hundred taels of silver for her expenses for these two months. There was no mention of His Majesty the Emperor's request for him to go on an expedition to the mountains, after all, the initial date of the expedition was the second day of the second month of the first month, and there were still many months to go, so there was no need to worry his beloved wife so early.

Although Jiang Zhixuan no longer has any money in his hands, the decoration of the new house is still in progress. After all, many materials have been bought, and the craftsmen are not paid for the time being. But they all believed in his character as the new champion, and promised to do things first, and it would not be too late to settle the salary when it was convenient for the champion. This moved the dignified champion to tears: Good man. So he left Xiaoshun and the two servants to watch the progress of the renovation in the new house, and went to his father-in-law's house to eat, just every one or two days to see if there was anything unsatisfactory......

"Father-in-law, at this time, it is already three poles in the sun, and Zihua should sleep enough even if he is tired and sleepy. The son-in-law invited him over, in fact, he wanted to explain him and let him change his mind! Hearing his father-in-law stop him, Jiang Zhixuan explained.

Li Rusong dropped down and looked at him quite strangely:

"Changing your mind? Explain him, what does Xuan'er mean by this? ”

Jiang Zhixuan laughed in his heart: My father-in-law is really a little puzzled. At the moment, he was calm and relaxed. Pretending to be a profound and mysterious Tao:

"Well, can't my father-in-law really see it? Zihua is working so hard and tired himself like this, in fact, he is using the errand of the court to anesthetize himself, so that he doesn't have the heart to think nonsense......"

Li Rusong was taken aback, and then suddenly realized:

"I see, Xuan'er, you have thought it through, sure enough, you young people understand the minds of young people better, since that's the case......" said and waved his hand at the subordinate who stood and didn't dare to move:

"Then let's go, please come over and play chess and drink, relax and rest!" , the next person took the order and left!

When the next person walked away, Li Rusong took a sip of his small wine glass, and then looked at Jiang Zhixuan with some concern:

"Xuan'er, you tell your father the truth, does Zihua still miss the daughter of the Wu family?"

Jiang Zhixuan was stunned for a moment, and then he looked embarrassed: "Father-in-law, are you ...... How does this make the son-in-law answer? ”

Li Rusong's face was straight: "To tell the truth, do you have to deceive your father?" ”

Jiang Zhixuan gritted his teeth: "The son-in-law doesn't dare to hide his father-in-law, indeed, as you said, Zihua fell in love with the woman at first sight, and in the past two months, you didn't let him interact with the woman, which almost made Zihua feel miserable...... "Father-in-law, the little son-in-law has something unclear, I wonder if the father-in-law can solve the confusion for the little son-in-law?" ”

Li Rusong smacked his lips: "You want to ask, why didn't your father let Qin'er communicate with the woman of the Wu family?" Fewer words"

Jiang Zhixuan also followed Li Rusong's example, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and nodded vigorously: "Yes!" ”

"Alas!" Li Rusong sighed, "Xuan'er, do you know that Wu Juncheng, the father of the woman surnamed Wu, is a hardcore Wei Wang Party in the court, and he is arrogant and domineering, and many officials in the court are dissatisfied with him. If it weren't for His Majesty's favor for His Royal Highness King Wei, he would have been unlucky a long time ago. Marry such a person, how do you make the father's heart feel down-to-earth? ”

Jiang Zhixuan really didn't know about this stubble, and asked with some surprise when he heard this:

"The son-in-law doesn't know about it, but. The son-in-law heard that the young lady of the Wu family "> very good person, gentle and graceful, filial and careful." Such a woman is a good match for Zihua! ”

Li Rusong glanced at Jiang Zhixuan with slanted eyes: "Where did you hear about it?" ”

Jiang Zhixuan sighed in his heart: It's bad, it's too eager, and it makes my father-in-law suspicious. So he hurriedly snorted: "The son-in-law heard that the mother-in-law inadvertently mentioned ......"

This crooked blow was correct, and Li Rusong relieved his doubts, because Mrs. Li "> did mention to him that Miss Wu's "> appearance is good......

Weng and his son-in-law talked casually for a while, and Li Qin came over with a pair of panda eyes. Not to mention, these days have been busy, Li Qin's figure is a lot slimmer, and he is no longer as obese as before, and the whole person has lost at least five catties of fat. Moreover, what Jiang Zhixuan said just now is not all exaggeration. Seeing Yiren indefinitely, the torture of longing did make him use his work to anesthetize himself, but it was not as exaggerated as Jiang Zhixuan said......

When he came to the small pavilion, Li Qin casually saluted his father, said hello to Jiang Zhixuan, and then sat down by himself, lifted his chopsticks to enjoy the dishes on the table that had not moved much, and ate with wine. Li Rusong saw that his son was so cold to him, and he didn't feel a good feeling in his heart, so he hesitated for a long time, and finally said with Ai Ai:

"Qin'er, it's been a hard time to run errands these days, oh ......?"

Li Qin was expressionless, eating by himself, and answered vaguely: "Well......."

Jiang Zhixuan chuckled lightly in his heart, and according to the steps discussed by the two last night, he said sternly:

"Zihua, what's wrong with you? Why are you so cold and rude to your father-in-law? Did you know ......?"

One sentence poked Li Rusong's sore spot, but because he felt sorry for his son, he hurriedly stopped Jiang Zhixuan from continuing:

"Xuan'er, don't blame Yu Qin'er, he is tired because he is busy with official business." As he spoke, he lifted his chopsticks and kept picking up vegetables for Li Qin, and said kindly: "Come, Qin'er, eat more, you see how thin you have become these days......

Looking at the kindness that Yan's father rarely revealed, Li Qin's nose was a little pantothenic, and Jiang Zhixuan's heart was also a little blocked, this scene was about to be unable to sing. Hurriedly straightened his mind:

"Zihua, it's not me saying you, there are many women in the world, why did you bother to make yourself look like this for a woman from the Wu family? Is this what a child should do to be so cold to his father-in-law and mother-in-law......

Li Rusong waved his hand again and again, while constantly coloring Jiang Zhixuan: "Xuan'er......"

Li Qin saw that the heat was almost over, put down his chopsticks heavily, dragged and cried: "Brother-in-law, do you think I want to do this?" But Hui Huan has been writing for so many days, putting aside the woman's reserve, and writing every day, and she has a deep affection for me. The younger brother is a new class jinshi, but he is so determined, if this is spread, what woman will dare to commit to the younger brother in the future? As he spoke, he took his glass and drank it all, then poured another glass, raised his neck and drank it, and then poured a third glass......

Li Rusong saw that there were faint tears in his precious son's eyes, and his heart trembled. gritted his teeth and thought about it for a long time, and finally sighed:

"That's it, Qin'er, since the Miss Wu family" > has a deep affection for you, you also have a posture of not marrying, and you are a father...... Let the Father give you a chance. Wait for the father to understand the character of the "> of Miss Wu Family, if it is really as you say, the father...... I will stop you no more......"

Li Qin was ecstatic in his heart, and raised his head in disbelief to look at Li Rusong: "Is what my father said true?" ”

Li Rusong's face was a little lonely: "Naturally, take it seriously, has there ever been a time when you are a father who doesn't count?" ”

Li Qin shook his head again and again, then stood up and bowed vigorously and nodded: "Thank you, father, thank you, father......" said and picked up the wine glass and wanted to drink again, but was held down by Li Rusong:

"Don't drink so quickly, it hurts your body ......", the face was indescribably lonely and desolate. At this moment, Li Qin was really moved, his father's love for him has never diminished anytime and anywhere...... Immediately put down the wine glass gently, and called out with a look: "Father......", and then his eyes were red!

Jiang Zhixuan looked at this appearance, and wondered in his heart whether he should avoid it for the time being, let his father-in-law and father and son communicate well, and mend the father-son relationship that had been hurt by the cold war in the past few months. was about to speak, but he heard Li Rusong say softly:

"Xuan'er, it's inconvenient for my father to come forward in this matter, so I'll leave it to you. I hope that you can inquire seriously, honestly return to your father, and see how Miss Wu "> behaves!" ”

Jiang Zhixuan felt a little toothache, okay, it's inconvenient for your old man to come forward in this matter. I'm a new champion, so it's convenient for your majesty to live next to you? However, this is obviously not the time to refute, so I had to agree aggrievedly:

"Father-in-law, don't worry, the son-in-law will do it properly and not let your father-in-law down!" In his heart, he scolded Li Qin for being bloody: This errand is not easy to do, if the Miss Wu family is really dignified, it will be okay if she is >really dignified. If he is a dominatrix-like character, he hides it for Li Qin. In the future, when the door is exposed, my father-in-law will be dissatisfied, and he will definitely ask his master for guilt, God......

Although Li Qin said that he was very confident in Wu Huihuan, if he asked his father to inquire in person, who knew what kind of bezoar dog Baolai would be inquired about? At this time, I heard that my father actually handed over this errand to my brother-in-law, and my heart suddenly calmed down. In his opinion, his brother-in-law and himself are in the same group, so isn't it all good? He didn't know that Jiang Zhixuan had already made up his mind at this time, and he must inquire carefully with his heart......

……

Halfway up Huashan, with Yao Shan's exclamation, everyone's eyes turned to him. At this moment, everyone was stunned, and Xiaoxiao was even more stunned, and screamed with all his life's strength:

"Tiger head ......", he was going to rush over desperately, trying to hold Yao Shan. But the top of the mountain is already rugged, and Xiaoxiao is at least six or seven steps away from Yao Mountain, so it is too late......
