Chapter 311

Song Nan thanked him, and instructed Wang Yong, Li Daniu and others to stay in the yard and not to make indiscriminate disturbances, and after he went around to the back of the house, there was a fenced courtyard behind the house, and the yard was lush with some melons, fruits and vegetables, and an old hen with a dozen chicks pacing leisurely under the grape trellis.

"Woohoo." A little flower dog barked at Song Nan a few times with a milky voice, which startled Song Nan.

"Huahua, don't scream, don't be rude." The crisp sound came from behind the tree outside the fence, Song Nan raised his eyes and saw a big-eyed girl coming from behind the tree, frowning and scolding the dog.

"My lord, please come with me, my father is in the jujube forest behind." The girl's voice was crisp, with a yellow daisy pinned to her sideburns, a melon seed face was well-proportioned and beautiful, and a pair of big eyes were like bright stars in the night, looking at Song Nan curiously and fearlessly.

"There's Miss Lao." Song Nan smiled and bowed.

The girl smiled and said, "Follow me." After saying that, he turned around and left, Song Nan hurriedly followed behind him and walked forward along the path stepped out of the grass and trees.

"You're the commander of the Jinyi Guard?" The girl asked as she grabbed a handful of weeds and threw them.

"yes."

"What kind of official is that? Is it big? ”

"Hmm...... How to put it, it's not too big, it's not too small. Song Nan said with a smile.

The girl turned to look at Song Nan and said, "Is it as big as my father's former official?" ”

Song Nan said: "I'm afraid it's bigger." ”

The girl said: "I don't believe it, you are so young, how can you be such a big official?" You must have lied to me. ”

Song Nan was amused by her coquettish expression: "It doesn't matter how big or small the official position is, the key is to be a good official, like your father, to be a good official." ”

The girl stopped and tilted her head and said, "My mother said the same, but since my father is a good official, why was he dismissed?" We've been living here as a family for over a year, and it's not fun at all, I'm suffocating to death. ”

Song Nan's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Why does your father want to live here, don't you have a house in other districts in Beijing?" ”

The girl said: "Yes, but my father doesn't want to live anywhere, Baba built a house here to live, and my mother and I had to come here to accompany him; My mother said that my father was in a bad mood, and living here could soothe my mood. ”

Song Nan nodded and said: "Your father is naturally in a bad mood, he is a good official, but he was framed and dismissed as an official, if I am also in a bad mood." ”

The girl nodded and said, "Yes, my mother also said so, what are you doing to my father?" ”

Song Nan said: "I want to ask your father to go out of the mountain to be an official." ”

The girl was surprised and said, "Can you reinstate my father?" ”

Song Nan said: "Maybe." ”

The girl raised her eyebrows, and then frowned again: "I'm afraid it won't work?" ”

Song Nan said: "What? ”

"Daddy said that he would never be an official from now on, but only live a peaceful life."

Song Nan was stunned and said, "What are you doing?" ”

The girl said: "Daddy said that traitors are in charge, and being an official is to be angry." ”

Song Nan smiled: "I see, your father is out of sight and out of mind." ”

The girl said: "Yes, my father is hot-tempered, and he can't see others messing around, otherwise we wouldn't have returned to the capital from the northwest to live in seclusion." ”

Song Nan nodded silently, Yang Yiqing installed the mansion by the lake full of graves, the picture is pure, out of sight and out of mind, whether he can say that he can move him out of the mountain, but he is not sure.

"Are you a traitor?" The girl asked suddenly.

Song Nan was stunned, how could there be such a question, this girl didn't seem to be very sophisticated.

"Why did the girl ask that?"

"Daddy said that you are a traitor, and you are a big official, so I just asked casually."

Song Nan thought for a while and said: "I'm not, the traitor is a traitor who brings disaster to the country and the people, I may not be a good official, but I don't bring disaster to the country and the people, so I'm not." ”

The girl thought for a moment and said, "That means you may not be a good person, but you are not a traitor either?" ”

Song Nan smiled bitterly: "You can say that, but I think I'm a good person." ”

The girl smiled and said, "If you can move my father out of the mountain, we don't have to live in this suffocating place anymore, and I will admit that you are a good person." ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "Okay, a word is a certainty, in order to become a good person in the girl's mind, I have to work harder." ”

The girl blushed and said, "I just don't want my father to be unhappy, in fact, I know that my father will be unhappy no matter where he stays, unless he can return to the northwest to fight with the Tartars." ”

Song Nan looked at the girl's bright eyes and said, "I'll do my best, you have to help me, let's work together." ”

The girl smiled, pointed to a sparse forest in front of her, and said, "The jujube forest has arrived, and Daddy is there." ”

Song Nan squinted and saw that a jujube forest with sparse leaves was not far away, and a gray figure was faintly visible in the glade, mixed with the sound of blades breaking through the air.

In the glade, there are a few books and a pot of tea on a small wooden table, and an old man in cloth with a slender figure is holding a three-foot Qingfeng is dancing slowly, looking at his age, he should be more than fifty people, but every move has a plank and an eye, his hands do not tremble and his feet do not tremble, his body is flexible, and he is concentrated.

Song Nan and the girl named Kou'er came to the jujube forest, Yang Yiqing was obviously too focused to notice the arrival of the two, the girl opened her mouth to speak, but Song Nan waved her hand slightly, and stood aside with a smile to watch.

Yang Yiqing's set of swordsmanship came down, and he stood up, his face flushed, and his spirit was vibrant.

Song Nan applauded, the applause alarmed Yang Yiqing, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the girl and Song Nan standing behind the tree, and said suspiciously: "Kou'er, who is this?" ”

Song Nan stepped forward and said: "I have heard for a long time that Yang Daren is an all-round talent in humanities and martial arts, and when I saw it today, it really deserves its reputation, this set of swordsmanship has both form and spirit, and I really admire it." ”

Yang Yiqing replied with a puzzled face: "Dare to ask if the master is ......"

Song Nan said: "Song Nan, who commanded the Jinyi Guard, suddenly came to disturb today, and I also hope that Lord Yang Haihan." ”

Yang Yiqing was stunned and said, "You are Song Nan, the new commander of the Jinyi Guard?" ”

Song Nan said: "Exactly." ”

Yang Yiqing nodded and said, "Although I haven't met Commander Song, I have heard many anecdotes about Commander Song, which is rude; But I don't know what Commander Song has to say when he comes to my cold forest house, you and I don't seem to have any friendship. ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "How dare you talk about friendship with Lord Yang in Xia, when Lord Yang is in the northwest, he is still a drooping child." ”

Yang Yiqing saw that Song Nan's words were humble and decent, his face was a little pale, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Please sit, Coo, make tea." ”

The girl came to the wooden table and took the teacup and poured two cups of herbal tea, Yang Yiqing put the long sword into the sheath and hung it on the branch, and sat on the small stool with his robe, Song Nan was not polite, and sat on another small wooden stool.

"Lord Yang is really good at enjoying it, and he actually installed his family house here, but it is also very clean and undisturbed." Song Nan said with a smile.

Yang Yiqing stroked the long hair under his chin and smiled: "This is also called enjoyment?" It's surrounded by graves, forbidden places where no one has set foot in, the day is gloomy and silent, and the ghosts are lit at night, is this also a pleasure? ”

Song Nan said: "A peaceful state of mind is enjoyment, sometimes it is better to be accompanied by ghosts than with people, and people are sometimes more terrible than ghosts, aren't they?" ”

Yang Yiqing raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Commander Song's words are so unfathomable, the old man doesn't understand it a little. ”

Song Nan smiled and said, "Lord Yang, if you don't understand your own heart, isn't Lord Yang hiding in seclusion in this secluded place to avoid some people who are more disgusted than ghosts and gods?" ”

Yang Yiqing said with a smile: "Commander Song speaks unpredictably, Yang is just a cloth cloth, just spending his old age here, where did so many strange ideas come from." ”

Song Nan smiled and said, "Then I have to talk too much, forgive me." ”

Yang Yiqing smiled and said: "Lord Song is busy with official business, so if he didn't come to find the old man to fight, I don't know if I can say it clearly." ”

Song Nan said: "I can't hide it, I came to talk to Lord Yang about the affairs of the court today. ”

Yang Yiqing was stunned and waved his hand and smiled: "Don't laugh, Yang is dying and old, he can't bear the trouble of official affairs, he just wants to live a clean life, what does the court have to do with me?" ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "Lord Yang, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, as a subject of the Ming Dynasty, how can you say that the major affairs of the DPRK and China have nothing to do with you." ”

Yang Yiqing waved his hand and said: "Naturally, everyone will say the truth, but it sounds ridiculous, Yang really has no intention of the court, and Lord Song is afraid that it will be in vain." ”

Song Nan smiled and said: "Lord Yang, I like to speak straight, I heard that Lord Yang is also a straight person, otherwise he would not have offended the inner court and the outer court at the same time, and would be beaten to the end." ”

Yang Yiqing frowned and said, "Commander Song originally came to chill me. ”

Song Nan said: "How dare you, I just heard about Lord Yang, and I felt a little upset for Lord Yang; In these years, those who have been conscientious and loyal to the border have ended up like an adult, and it is very chilling to think about it. ”

Yang Yiqing smiled slightly and said: "Commander Song, I really don't understand your intention, Yang has not yet reached the point of asking someone to come to comfort him; Yang asked himself to be worthy of his heart, this heart can show the sun and the moon, and this is enough. ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "Admire, Lord Yang is detached, but he can't help but fall into disloyal words." ”

Yang Yiqing said angrily: "Commander Song, you have to be careful when you speak, although I am just a cloth cloth, but it is not something that can be slandered by Lord Song casually, I want me Yang Yiqing to be an official for more than 20 years, and I am dedicated to serving the Ming Dynasty, if I say loyalty, I think that no one can match it." ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "Don't be excited, you were in the past, and now you are hiding here to enjoy the quiet, not caring about the affairs of the DPRK and China, and not caring about the chaos that the northwest border town will fall into, isn't this disloyalty?" ”

Yang Yiqing shouted angrily: "Shut up, seek his own government in his position, this kind of thing is only for relevant people to worry about, and it is not my fault." ”

Song Nan said: "People say that how great the ability is, how great the responsibility is, Lord Yang has the ability to suppress the enemy, but let the side things erode, is this right?" ”

Yang Yiqing was very annoyed, Song Nan's words were sharp, but they were a kind of nonsense scoundrel words, which really couldn't refute it, and couldn't swallow it.

"Commander Song, what are you going to say?"

Song Nan smiled and said, "I don't know if the emperor has heard of the matter of patrolling the border?" ”

Yang Yiqing said calmly: "I know the way, but I will not comment." ”

Song Nan said: "I don't want adults to judge what the emperor did, after the emperor went on patrol, he provoked the Tartars to attack wantonly, and he was almost imprisoned. The border towns are fighting their own battles, the rescue is delayed, and the drawbacks of slow decision-making are exposed, I don't know what Lord Yang thinks. ”
