Chapter 64 Scholar
Fengyuan County of Tianyuan Country is the capital county with the longest history and culture in Tianyuan, and it has been used as the capital of Tianyuan Kingdom by successive dynasties before the previous dynasty.
Not only is the scenery here beautiful, but also is an outstanding person, many famous ministers of the past dynasties are from here, and there are countless talented heroes, and now many wise men of Tianyuan Country are also mostly born here.
In the welcome pavilion outside Kazehara Castle, the capital of Kazebara County, a scholar dressed in a coarse white shirt and a scribe's scarf on his head was sitting alone in the pavilion and drinking.
This scholar is not very old, although he is not handsome, but he has a polite appearance.
At this time, the scholar's expression was very lonely, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked a little embarrassed, and he looked into the distance while pouring wine into his mouth.
At this time, the sound of gongs, drums and suona came, and a very festive song was played.
After entering the eye is a team of greeting relatives, the size of the team is very large, about more than 500 people, and there are four sides of the silent avoidance card in front, eight lifting of the sedan chair, the big red sedan chair is embroidered with the pattern of the dragon with gold thread, extremely luxurious.
The bridegroom's wedding dress was also embroidered with the pattern of the dragon, and the horse he sat on was also a good horse, with a snow-white body without a single stray hair, thick legs, and huge hooves, which was a thousand-mile horse.
The groom's official is also a talent, a very handsome son, and looking at his triumphant face, he can't hide the joy in his heart.
The greeting team soon walked to the front of the welcome pavilion, and the scholar in the pavilion walked out of the pavilion with a wine glass, and he stood on the avenue to stop the greeting procession.
The entourage at the front of the team was about to step forward to drive the scholar away, but the groom officer immediately stopped him after seeing the scholar and said, "Stand down, don't be rude to Brother Wen." ”
The groom's official immediately stepped forward and saluted the scholar with a fist and said: "Brother Wen, forgive me, the people are not sensible, I asked someone to send a wedding card to Brother Wen, and I am still worried that Brother Wen will not come! Brother Wen can come to congratulate the younger brother on his wedding, I am really very happy! Someone will send Mr. Wen back to the palace first." ”
The scholar waved his hand and said with a smile: "The little prince said that he laughed, how dare I dare to climb high." ”
The scholar's tone was very unkind.
This groom official is Situ Xiu, the only son of Situ Haoyang, the 'King of Pingshan' of Tianyuan Kingdom, Situ Haoyang is Situ Haotian's cousin.
Later, Situ Haotian's brothers were on the wall, and Situ Haoyang has always stood on Situ Haotian's side, and he has the merit of supporting it, and then in the War of the Five Kingdoms, he was also seriously injured and almost died.
Therefore, Situ Haotian has a deep affection for his cousin, and his gift to Situ Haoyang is only worse than that of Bi Yuntian.
Situ Xiu is both civil and military, and he is also a rare talent, among the juniors of the Situ family, Situ Yuan and Situ Xiu are also the two most outstanding.
Situ Haotian also likes Situ Xiu very much, and has long had the intention of entrusting him to the imperial capital, but because Situ Haoyang has been in poor health, Situ Xiu is his only son, in order to take care of Situ Haoyang, so Situ Haotian recruited Situ Xiu into Beijing several times, but he also declined, and Situ Haotian appreciated him even more.
Situ Xiu didn't care about the scholar's sarcasm, but smiled and said: "Brother Wen is really joking, who in Tianyuan Kingdom has not heard of the name of 'Feng Wenjie' Wen Fang, my father has wanted to recommend Brother Wen to the court as an official many times, but Brother Wen has refused, otherwise with Brother Wen's talent, he should have already achieved fame now, when King Enyi sacrificed his life for the country, Brother Wen, who was only eight years old, became famous all over the world with a 10,000-word essay, and no one knows your talent." ”
The scholar known as Wen Fang said coldly: "At that time, it was just that I was young and ignorant, Bi Daxia sacrificed for the people of Tianyuan Country, and none of the enemies he fought in his heroic life were his opponents, but in the end he died of that dirty politics, which is why I have always hated politics."
But I'm too self-righteous, I can't change anything on my own, I underestimate the world, I want to stay away from politics but I can't get out. I lost what was most precious to me in order to escape. ”
Situ Xiu nodded and said with the same feeling: "Brother Wen, maybe this is your life! People can't compete with heaven, and this is already the case, I advise you not to be too persistent." We can't be considered a cross-section, I advise you to forget about Xian'er!"
Wen Fang did not answer Situ Xiu's question, but instead asked the sedan chair behind Situ Xiu: "Xian'er, I just want to ask you one thing, is it your own decision to marry him? Are you willing?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone calmed down, and everyone focused their eyes on the sedan chair.
After a while, the bride in the sedan chair replied in a low voice: "Brother Wen, you better forget me! ”
The woman's voice was also a little choked, and then she began to sobb quietly, but because the voice was too small, only the woman in the sedan chair could hear it.
After Wen Fang heard the woman's answer, he put his left hand, which was not holding the wine glass, behind his back, and clenched it into a fist, his fist became tighter and tighter, but his face remained the same as before.
Wen Fang then asked, "Tell me, did you mean it?" I just want to know if you personally agreed to marry him. ”
The woman in the sedan chair was silent for a while, and finally said in a trembling voice: "Yes------ it is what Xian'er means, and Xian'er is sorry for Brother Wen." ”
Wen Fang's fists behind him clenched tighter, his nails had pierced into his palms, blood slowly flowed out, and his breathing became a little short, only to see him slowly close his eyes, take a long breath, and suddenly have a mocking meaning on his face.
Then he suddenly stopped being so excited.
I saw him ask in a calm tone, "Xian'er, why? Tell me why?"
Is it because his surname is Situ, he is a prince, he has a prominent family background, he has a handsome appearance? I only now realize that I am really stupid, you are the daughter of a famous family, how can you look down on a poor person like me who has no family background and no status!
Haha----- I pretend to be smart, how can I not see through it! I knew that it was like this today, if I could also be a supreme minister, then you should be my bride today!"
Wen Fang then raised his glass and said, "I am here to wish you to grow old with him and give birth to a noble son early." ”
After he raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp, he staggered into the welcome pavilion and picked up a cloth bag, and walked out again, he walked in front of Situ Xiu, reached out and took out a delicate jade Buddha from his bosom and handed it to Situ Xiu and said: "This is my congratulatory gift to you, may it bless you with a lover and eventually become a family." ”
Then, ignoring Situ Xiu's puzzled expression, Wen Fang stuffed the Jade Buddha into his hand, picked up his burden and walked in the opposite direction to Fengyuan City.
Situ Xiu saw that he was leaving, and asked, "Where is Brother Wen going?"
Wen Fang didn't look back, he just said calmly: "Since the power in this world wants to dominate my life, then I might as well find a way to control the power!"
is such a person who originally hated fame and fortune, but because he was abandoned by his beloved, he decided to chase fame and fortune and be a man, but what will be his final outcome?
