Chapter 35 The Gentleman of Landang
It was already dark outside the house, and it was still dark in the harsh winter, and there was a very strong charcoal fire in the house, and she sat on the bed with a brocade quilt, from head to toe, from the inside to the outside.
The palace changes in the past dynasties were all accompanied by tragic bloody killings, and his heart was as soft as the wind, would he become the ghost of her father and brother one day? rejected Lian Ash, but she couldn't refuse herself, after all, she couldn't watch him sink step by step, and the one who died for his confidant, dared to trust him with his life, let alone sacrifice happiness?
I'm sorry, Ah Zheng, Zijin is going to lose you after all!
Forsythia, who was keeping vigil on the couch outside, heard an exclamation, and hurriedly called the sleeping Xian'er next to him to come to the couch inside, "County Lord, you have a nightmare again?" Since you came back from the palace the day before yesterday, you have been uneasy, do you want to find a doctor to take a look? ”
"Yes, county lord, you can't sleep at night, and you have to take care of the princess, so you won't be able to hold on to your body." Xian'er wiped the cold sweat with a handkerchief for Yu Zijin, and touched her forehead and got wet, what's wrong? It's not that they encountered anything unclean, I heard Jiaojiao say, they just entered the palace to see the emperor, and rewarded Mei with the head of the company, why was the county lord so restless when he came back?
Yu Zijin shook his head, "I'm fine, just make me a bowl of soothing tea in the evening, it's almost dawn, and the sixth brother will almost arrive at noon, can the people there clean up his residence for him?" ”
"Pack it up, county lord, don't worry!" Forsythia replied, wrapped the fox fur for Yuzijin, and said: "Yesterday, the second prince ordered that the sixth prince also came from the military camp with the sixth son, and ordered the people from the sixth prince to clean up the room for the cousin. ”
Forsythia and Xian'er looked at each other and smiled, the two girls looked at Yu Zijin with joy in their eyes, they have been serving the county lord since they were children, watching her become such a beautiful woman at sunrise one day, and now something good is finally coming.
Yuzi is melancholy, now that the situation is urgent, her parents are finally afraid of long nights and dreams, so they want to give her to their cousin as soon as possible, right?
"Second sister, second sister......" As soon as the young man in fresh clothes and angry horses entered the mansion, he went straight to the Luohua Pavilion where Yu Zijin was staying in the Xianyang Palace, and his flamboyant voice resounded through the small courtyard.
Yu Qi is twelve years old, it is the age of youth and frivolity, and this spring won the championship in the school field, and Yu Ce agreed to enter the military camp stationed in Liandu.
"Second sister, have you missed me very much after not seeing me for a year?"
"Second sister, you see that I am growing taller than you!"
"Second sister, this is the Hanjian Sword that my father gave me when I won the championship in our school, is it very suitable for my temperament?"
......
"Second sister, second sister, have you heard? Why don't you speak? ”
Yu Zijin helplessly looked at the rebellious young man who pulled her to say this and that, and asked questions from east to west, have you given me a chance to speak?
Yu Qi may have found that she did talk too much, blinked, closed her mouth at the right time, and pretended to be serious.
"Okay, okay, just your monkey nature, don't hold yourself back." Yu Zijin poked Yu Qi's head, "Father went out to inspect and will only return tomorrow, can you go back to see your mother when you go home?" ”
"No," Yu Yan rubbed her head, "I heard that you are back, and I came to see you as soon as I got off the horse, and I haven't had time to go to my mother's place yet." ”
"Well, my mother is not feeling comfortable these days, I'm afraid I haven't gotten up yet, I'll take you over later, remember not to be naughty and make her unhappy!"
"Mother is sick?" Yu Qi hooked the square stool and sat next to Yu Zijin, "Is it because of the eldest sister?" ”
Yu Zijin nodded, and his already low heart was even lower.
Since moving the capital, the original Bihuan has been through the Ningxiang Mansion several times to obtain a customs clearance token, and wants to go to Shangluo in the West Plains to bring back Yu Haojie, he is the original clan relative, and Yu Haojie is even more after the abolition of the West Plains, how easy is it to bring it back?
Yuce didn't give it, and I'm afraid it won't be given. Since the two countries were relatively close, Yuce did not ask Yu Haojie more, nor did he send it to Xiyuan, and even the Ming and Qing Dynasty Hui never opened his mouth to Yuce.
Everyone understands that it's not that Yu Ce wants to sacrifice this daughter for the sake of power, but the more he doesn't ask, the more he can show that he doesn't pay attention to Yu Haojie, and he moves forward with his ambition to dominate the industry, and the safer Yu Haojie will be.
But after such a long-term separation without news, Yu Zijin and Ming and Qing Hui can't bear it, and Yuan Bihuan can't bear it!
Yu Qi slapped the dresser, Lingjing was shocked three times, got up and said angrily: "You and your mother are waiting, I will go to Shangluo to snatch the eldest sister back!" Regardless of whether he Yu Wenzheng is still the coward of the original industry, don't want to stop the master! ”
Yu Zijin hurriedly grabbed Yu Qi, who was about to take up his sword and walk away, "Oh, I just told you not to make trouble, why are you disobedient?" What kind of place is Nishihara, where you can break into it if you want to? It's so big that I don't know how thick the sky is, and I only use my hands and mouths to do things, but I don't use my brain! Do you know that if you go to your sister, it will only be more dangerous, and now if you ignore her, she will just be a wasted queen, if you anger the original industry, you are not afraid that he will take your sister to sacrifice the flag? ”
Yu Qi stopped, feeling annoyed in his heart, why was he so impulsive and brainless? It's not moving, it's not moving, since the eldest sister brought him up, do you want him to watch the eldest sister die of old age alone?
"I'll talk about this later, you can go with me to see my mother first!" Yu Zijin patted Yu Qi's annoyed face, and ordered Jiaojiao to get him a home brocade robe, help him change out of his strong clothes, and his sister and brother went to Fanghuaju in the Ming and Qing dynasties together.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of Fanghuaju, he met Yuhan and Lan Sa.
The beauty is immortal, the beauty is fresh and the eyebrows are picturesque, Lan Sa is stunned, and the handsome face with her eyebrows is more mature and stable than before, but when I think of my uncle's letters a few days ago, I can't help but feel two more joys, one shyness, and seven worries.
"Second brother, is my mother awake? How are you feeling today? Yu Qi asked.
Yu Han's gaze moved from Yu Zijin to Yu Qi, "Today's complexion is better, and the doctor said that it will be almost the same for a few more days, you go first to accompany your mother, and your cousin will come to Xianyang less, and let the second sister accompany him to go out for a walk." ”
"Oh." Yu Qi replied sullenly and went inside, he didn't dare not listen to the words of the second brother, he thought he was a bully when he was a child, but now he doesn't think like this.
There were only three people left at the door, Yu Zijin lowered his eyes and was silent, Yu Han gave Yu Zijin a slightly warning look, and left after a few words of greeting with Lan Sa.
The bluestone water bridge, people come and go, the clear and clear sky is reflected in the clear lake under the bridge, and lined with pedestrians and men and women side by side on the bridge.
"How long have we not seen each other?" Lan Sa looked down at Yu Zijin with thin eyes, remembering that they were also playing together in the street market that year, when she was just an innocent little girl.
"It's been four years since my eldest brother got married." Yu Zijin smiled.
Four years? Four years can change a lot of things, right? Lan Sa stopped and hesitated: "Zijin, you ...... Do you know why my uncle summoned me? ”
"Yes."
"Would you like to, then?" Although he knew that the letter was not what she meant, he still wanted to know, he wanted to hear her say it for himself, even though he might be disappointed, but he still wanted to know.
Meeting those sincere and clear eyes, Yu Zijin said: "My cousin is just a cousin to me. ”
Lan Sa's mood instantly fell like a river of ice, just a cousin! You rejected me after all. And who is the person in your heart?
"I understand, I'll explain it to my uncle when I have the chance."
Yu Zijin's eyelids were slightly wet, "Cousin, thank you." "She is selfish and powerless to resist her father, so she can only take advantage of her cousin's intolerance.
Lan Sa sighed lightly, shook his head and said: "You don't have to thank me, I just don't want to force you, I know that you don't have me in your heart, and it is useless to force you to stay, this time I just came with the only trace of expectation left in my heart." After a pause, he said, "Zijin, do you want to enter the palace?" You...... Is he the one you love? ”
Lan Sa is pure, and he won't think about it, he can feel that in Yu Zijin's heart, he is no different from Yuan Yifeng, otherwise his uncle and aunt would not weigh them the same that day, if Yuan Yifeng can get a little more personal affection from Zijin, then the matter of the two of them will be decided a long time ago.
Yu Zijin neither admitted nor denied, Yu put his hand between his sleeves and stroked the red rope knotted hair, looking at the bustling street market like water and autumn waves, and the cold wind in winter turned his face slightly red.
Tomorrow is that he is going to get married, and at this moment, I am afraid that the city is full of spring, not that the sun is cold, right?
"You can't sit idly by and ignore him, but the person you love ...... But not him...... Right? Lan Sa's voice sounded in his ears again, full of distress and sadness, "Zijin, why are you suffering?" ”
The tip of his nose was sore, and two lines of tears slipped down, "Cousin, you know everything, don't you?" You...... Seen them all? ”
Lan Sa closed his eyes, did you see it? He did!
Lian crossed the North Pass, where it was not his duty, and General Fang, who happened to be good friends with him, committed another old illness, and he was entrusted to go to the overseer to change the guard.
Chengguan evening breeze drifting, he rode a horse and inadvertently saw the person who had made him soul for many years, light green smoke, beautiful like jade, bright dazzling his eyes, he knew that he did not recognize the wrong person, in recent years, she has become more and more moving, so that he is intoxicated with that boundless smile.
But the smile was directed at another man.
Seven feet long, the sky is full of spirit. That man is not mortal!
A pair of beautiful people stood in the wind, and they would go hand in hand with warmth, seeing her smile so happily, his excited mood was inexplicably frozen by the cold, and finally stopped the urge to step forward, and he couldn't bear to do the redundancy in that picture.
stopped the impulse, but didn't stop the curiosity, checked the customs clearance records, the token they used actually belonged to the Qinghe family, that person was not Yuan Yifeng? He was terrified, his uncle and aunt both wanted him and Yuan Yifeng to be true, but the final decision still depends on Zijin, so it seems that he is hopeless!
On that day, the expectations of many years were shattered, and the person he had loved for many years would not enter his arms after all.
Just when he had not yet come out of the grief, Yuan Ye fled to the west, he was ordered to lead troops to support Luguan, when the two armies faced each other, the familiar man appeared in the enemy camp, if it weren't for his own magic shot, he almost wondered if he was dazzled.
After returning from the battle, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the man wearing the emperor's crown was obviously not the one he saw in Liandu Beiguan.
In the end, no matter how stupid Rao is Lan Sa is, he figured out the context.
Now those two people, one is a fierce rival of Xiyuan, and the other is a puppet of the deep palace, and he has a beautiful woman at his fingertips, but he has long lost this heart.
"Zijin, no matter what choice you make, your cousin will support you, but one thing you have to understand is that no matter which side these two choose, you will be in a dilemma in the second half of your life, and you will hurt the father-daughter relationship between you and your uncle. I am far away in the barracks, and there are very few who can help you, and now I only hope that you can make a clear decision, if you want to go west, my cousin will help you; If you want to enter the palace, you should know the thorns ahead. Brother Han matched you and me like that, just because he didn't want you to get into the quagmire, if you stayed out of the matter, then why wouldn't it be you? So you have to think twice, even if you have a hundred folds in the future...... There's no turning back. ”
Lan Sa patted Yu Zijin on the shoulder, "Come and tell me if you've thought about it." ”
Yu Zijin nodded tearfully, she had made up her mind in her heart, but before all the unknowns came, she really wanted to see Ah Zheng again.
Ningxiang Wangfu Ding came to pass on Yuce to return to the house in advance, and had important matters to discuss with Lan Sa, so Lan Sa called Forsythia and Jiaojiao not far away, and told the two to follow Yu Zijin well, and he left first.
