Chapter Twenty-Three: The Return
"Huh!"
A hovering eagle swooped down, grabbed a small green snake, and plunged into the sky. As it flapped its wings, it looked down, and beneath it, a long line of ox carts came from west to east, from the bottom of the slope to the top. The cart is pulled by Luxi Niu, the body is full of patterns, and even the driver sitting on the wheel is also full of spirits. When the whip is wielded, it rises and falls, but it is not chaotic, as if it is in the army, and it is orderly.
Horse!
Although there were not many horses, only fifty, the knights on the horses were all wearing long swords hanging from their waists, wearing strong armor, and their faces were resolute. The knights lined up on both sides of the convoy and protected each other in three sections: front, middle and rear. Behind the convoy, there were hundreds of healthy servants galloping, although they were not wearing armor, but they were all holding long knives, which was martial arts.
Who, this is?
People who were busy in the fields stopped what they were doing and looked forward to it. What's more, he climbed up the ridge and pointed at the convoy that was dragging close to Lixu.
Someone asked, "Ah Weng, who is this?" ”
The white-haired old man in Confucian clothes, his hand on his eyebrows, glanced over, and replied with a smile: "In today's Jiangdong, there are people who can have such a momentum, except for Sima is Wang." Well, from west to east! It should be after passing the Huaishui and entering through the west entrance. In this way, it is expected that the general Wang Chuzhong will return to Jianye! ”
The person next to him exclaimed: "It was Wang Chuzhong, it's strange, he can be protected by riding armor, and he is really majestic." Manjia line Luoyang, Zongge Zhen Chaogang, big husband also! ”
The old man in Confucian clothes stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "The whole armor is ready to be prepared, and the longitudinal armor crosses the Yangtze River and sweeps the North Garden, which is indeed the right way." It's just that when I look at the current situation, Jiangdong is not peaceful, and if I want to drive the armor to the north, heh, how easy is it to talk about. ”
The person beside him asked again: "Ah Weng, what is so strange about that little Langjun just now, why did you give him the piano?" That piano is Ah Weng's favorite, and it was passed down from Uncle Ji. ”
Hearing this, the old man looked sideways and looked into the distance. Not far away, there is a small mountain, the mountain is not high, like a dirt bag slope, the green and secluded climb all over the mountain, there is a corner pavilion on the top of the mountain. In that pavilion, you can vaguely see a corner of white clothes, the wind is coming, and the white clothes are fluttering. The old man smiled: "Words start from the heart, give it from the mind, why after all." ”
With that, he waved his robe sleeves, held the aconitum mahogany cane, and walked towards the ox cart parked on the side of the road.
Liu Nong stood in the hexagonal pavilion, looking at the convoy like ants. Laifu and Li Xun stood behind them, and Laifu held a piano in his arms. The body is as simple as ink, round and smooth to the touch, and it is obviously often caressed by people, and it should be cherished. Li Qi was also watching the piano on the sidelines, it was the first time he saw Xiao Langjun get a gift, he was slightly surprised in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "Laifu, the old man just now, do you recognize it?" ”
Laifu smiled: "I don't know, I've never seen it." ”
Li Xuan raised his eyebrows and said strangely: "You don't recognize it, and neither does that Xiao Langjun." Well, the old man didn't ask in words, such a good piano said that he would give it away, what a weirdo! ”
Laifu waved his right hand and muttered nonchalantly: "What's so strange, our little Langjun, where to stand, it's like a little fairy." The old man must have seen it, Mu Xiaolangjun was extraordinary, and he was happy for a while, so he sent something. ”
The corners of Liu Nong's mouth picked, what Laifu said was true, recently he studied the scriptures given by Uncle Shi in the East Building; was reciting the Analects, the sentences were quite jerky and difficult to understand, and I was a little depressed, so I thought about coming out to step on the green and scatter my heart. Who knew that he had just walked into this small pavilion and roared twice at the bottom of the mountain, which not only scared away the birds of the mountain, but also attracted an old man of the scholar clan. Without saying a word, he gave the piano and left.
This is really free and easy! The reason why love does not arise, it is always deep. The old man gave it away, of course he had to give it. Affectionate and not tired, it is to give the piano as you like, and give the piano and promise.
Hey!
Liu Nong exclaimed, his eyes frozen.
At this time, at the bottom of the mountain, the convoy that spread to the top of the slope suddenly stopped, and a man in a gorgeous robe stepped out of the first car, in his forties, with three wisps of beard, and his horns fluttering in the wind, quite handsome. He straightened his crown and whispered a few words to the knight beside him. Subsequently, among the dozens of cars, one after another, there were Confucian robes and high crowns, all of which were young and handsome. Everyone surrounded the man in the gorgeous robe, only to see the man's lips open and close, as if he was saying something, far away, and he couldn't hear it.
"Woo, woo......"
Is it a horn? No, some are like Zhong Luan, and they are plausible. Looking at the sound, far to the east, there is a Chinese line. At the tip of the line is a group of knights with armor in their armor.
The knights from the east galloped near, stopped their horses, and lined up on either side. The knights of the convoy were on the horse, alongside them. There was no speech on either side, only the horses snorted and gouged their hooves.
Wind Xiao Xiao, slaughter!
The Chinese line gradually came into view, and there were a large number of Confucian costumes with high crowns, and there were also people wearing court clothes. The first person, thirty-six or seven years old, with thick eyebrows and a broad face, is full of smiles. The seven-foot body, different from other people's attire, is not wearing court clothes and is not a Confucian costume, wearing a jade crown on his head, wearing a red coat, with his pace slowly, the tail wrinkles and spreads. Waist, with a sword!
The people from the east stopped at the flat place at the bottom of the slope, and the red man pressed his sword and laughed in the wind, and the laughter was full of laughter. The people at the west end, under the leadership of the man in the Chinese robe, hurried forward and descended to the top of the slope.
The hatchback has been remitted.
The man in the Chinese robe was the first to follow, followed closely, and the person behind him was slowly making a joke. The red man didn't care, laughed, took a step forward, and headed east with the man in the gorgeous robe.
At this time, the two Confucian crowns talked to each other, made noise, and followed each other.
Who? Zhendong General Sima Rui and General Wang Dun? It should be!
Liu Nong's right hand tightly grasped the wooden pillar in the pavilion, and the tips of his fingers were white. Close your eyes and stop them from blinking; Contemplative, Wang Dun entered Jianye, extremely strange. Although Wang Dun inherited from Sima Rui, he easily did not leave the army since he led the army in Yuzhang. First, the north is in danger, and I am afraid that the Hu people in the north will go south; Second, it's not that I'm afraid of anything else, it's that I'm afraid that Sima Rui will seize his military power.
How dare he come?
He dared to come because his brother Wang Dao concluded that Sima Rui would not take away his military power.
How dare Director Wang conclude? Unless, for Sima Rui, there is a greater temptation!
Oh, by the way, Sima Ye! It must be because of Sima Ye in the Northland. Sima Ye in the north is in Chang'an in September, attacking the crown prince, early next year, Emperor Yongjia will be poisoned by Liu Cong, Sima Ye will succeed to the throne, history for Jianxing. Subsequently, Sima Ye sent an edict to the towns, wanting to welcome the spirit of Emperor Huai (Yongjia died and called Huai) back to Chang'an. Sima Rui raised his arms in Jiangdong and raised 200,000 troops to Luoyang, called to welcome the emperor's return, but in fact, he was fighting for power. But now that Emperor Huai is not dead, why is this?
Could it be that this is a prelude to the raising of troops? With such a large piece of venison and Wang Dao in the center to control it, it is expected that Sima Rui must rely on the power of the Wang family to raise Luoyang. However, everyone knows that Emperor Huai is dead. But no one knows when he will die, either ...... or ......
Thinking of this, Liu Nong opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes were as straight as a blade. He thought of a possibility, one that was so absurd that it was simply incredible. However, this possibility kept drilling into his heart, drilling into a dark corner, squatting, and never coming out again.
The prelude is played too skillfully.
Liu Nong took a deep breath and covered up the dark thoughts. In my ears, I heard Laifu's exclamation: "Hey, there are still a few ox carts, I didn't follow." Ah, the man is out! ”
Sure enough, two ox carts broke away from the group and did not move forward. In one of them, a middle-aged man with a wide robe and large sleeves walked out, with extremely long eyebrows, like goose feathers sweeping obliquely; The eyes are restrained, and when looking forward to it, there is an indescribable look. He waved his sleeves and headed for the car behind him.
Before he could get to the front of the car, the curtain of the car was raised, and a pair of plain hands rolled it slightly, and a little maid flashed out of it, born white and pretty, not weaker than the broken lake and ingenuity.
The curtain of the little maid stood aside.
Then, from the curtain came a pair of extremely white hands, shaking like snow and shining roots. The hand grabbed the little maid's wrist and borrowed a little strength. Pan Heng bun is revealed, and at the edge of the back of his neck, there is a wisp of green silk lightly. Further down, the plain white skirt is spread, and the waist is surrounded by a white lotus layer, tied with a blue ribbon. Going down the water, it is a triangular frame, the wind rises, the pattern frame is scattered, and the corners are swaying.
Startled by the wind, this girl may be cold, as if afraid. The white jade-like hand tightened the cloud curtain on his neck, and the white hair on the corner of the curtain shook slowly, holding a goose egg face.
Liu Nong only glanced at it, and then froze. The girl was seventeen or eighteen years old, extremely beautiful, and dazzlingly bright. Whether it is the eyebrows or the eyes, they all seem to be carefully traced, no more, no less, just right. He subconsciously exclaimed: In the world, there will be such a delicate woman?
Exquisite, refined to the extreme.
The girl got out of the car, pressed her hands on her waist and abdomen, and bent shallowly. The middle-aged man laughed, whispered for a while, heard the cow cry again, and looked back to the east.
In the willows in the east, several ox carts came out, and the Luxi cattle of one color were pierced. The coachman kept shouting and whipping very high, and the ox cart was very bumpy, but it seemed that someone was still urging in the cart, and the ox cart went more urgently.
Run to the front.
"Appeal ......"
The car stopped, splashed the muddy water in the depression in all directions, and jumped out of the car a green shirt Langjun. As soon as he landed, he hurried to meet him, first with a long bow at the middle-aged man, and then at the two of them for a while, the look between his eyebrows was anxious that he couldn't hide. As soon as she had finished speaking, she saw the girl caress her forehead with her right hand, and then fell limply to the ground.
The little maids screamed and hurried to help her.
The green shirt Langjun wandered around at a loss, the middle-aged man shouted, the maids were in a hurry, he didn't care about that much, took a few steps forward, and pinched the girl's people.
The girl woke up slowly, and with the support of the little maids, she straightened up and staggered to her ox cart. When she got into the car, she let the wheel pull the skirt, and the maids even dragged her to help her into the car and put the curtain down.
Seeing her sitting in the car, Langjun hurriedly waved his hand at the middle-aged man, stepped into the car in a panic, and told the coachman to leave quickly. The coachman roared loudly and whipped violently, Luxi Niu mooed in pain, and several ox carts set off quickly, the wheels rolling, all in a hurry, and went straight to Jianye City.
"Rifle!"
Seeing this, Liu Nong let out a loud scream, trembling like a sieve, unable to stand; Leaning against the pavilion pillar, his body shrank down along the pavilion pillar, and tears flowed. Frightened, Laifu and Li Xuan were shocked, I didn't know why Xiao Langjun was fine just now, why he suddenly started crying!
Laifu exclaimed: "Xiao Langjun, what's wrong? ”
Li urged his heart to be steady, stepped forward to help him, and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Langjun, what's wrong, but what's uncomfortable?" As he spoke, he reached for his forehead.
Liu Nong waved his hand away, trying to hold back his tears, but he couldn't control it; I wanted to speak, but there was something in my throat that was blocked, and I couldn't say anything. Grabbing Laifu with his hands, he pointed to his ox cart at the bottom of the mountain, and then pointed to Jianye.
Laifu was anxious and chaotic, touching his head and stomping his feet, and suddenly remembered the green-shirted Langjun he saw just now, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Xiaolangjun, but you want to go to Weifu?" ”
Liu Nong nodded heavily, struggling to get a babbling bubble out of his throat: "Quick!" ”
"Xiao Langjun, don't be anxious, don't blame!" Li urged his head, and after Liu Nong's signal, he picked up Liu Nong on his back and rushed down the mountain. Laifu hugged the piano and chased after him.
got into the car, Laifu said loudly: "Xiao Langjun, sit down!" ”
"Smack!"
Laifu whipped the whip, and the green ox struggled. But the ox is not a horse, no matter how much he urges the whip, it can't go anywhere, but it turns Liu Nong in the car upside down.
By this time, he had recovered his strength, clutching the beams of the car wall tightly, and tears were still flowing.
The green-shirted Langjun just now was none other than the Wei Association. can make the Wei Association so panicked and crazy, without the slightest disregard for the family's manners and etiquette; Combined with the girl's fainting, what else could be done!
Uncle Shi, Uncle Shi, wait for me, wait for me!
Uncle Shi......
Li urged after a long time, and guessed a little, afraid that he would be too sad, so he raised the curtain and whispered to him: "Xiao Langjun, don't be afraid, don't be surprised, don't scare yourself." ”
Liu Nong's eyes widened, and he didn't seem to hear Li Xuan's words. In his mind, as if he was acting in a movie, Uncle Wei Shi's figure was playing back and forth. There is only one picture, that is, when the night was talking, Uncle Shi stood up and slowly explained, what was hidden in his eyes was pity for himself.
He has suppressed these many days, he is a man, not a god, why does he not shed tears? At the most dazed time, he suffered from the eyes of others, but he got warmth and help from Uncle Shi, allowing him to gain a foothold in this world. It can be said that without Uncle Shi, there would be no him Liu Nong today.
The reason why he stayed in Jianye was to wait for this day. Even recently, Mrs. Wei stopped letting him visit Uncle Shi, he didn't leave here. He originally thought that he could downplay Uncle Shi's departure; He has always thought that he has been prepared, at least he should be sad but not sad! However, the arrival of this day made him so afraid. What are you afraid of, that loneliness that no one understands?
I'm scared to death! Uncle Shi!
If I return, you will not be sad! Yes! The car is going so slowly, please stop at the time. Uncle Shi, please let me see you again, my Uncle Shi.
"Appeal ......"
Laifu let out a long shout, stiffened the reins, the wheels of the car creaked and creaked, and the green ox ran a few more steps before he paused for four hooves. Liu Nong rushed out, Li Xuan was startled, and hurriedly hugged him down.
What is this sound?
Weep......
What color is this?
Vegetarian ......
There was no part in front of the gate of the Wei Mansion, but there were Wei Tong and Wei Xun, and the look on their faces was sad. There is an endless stream of people coming and going, and there is a lot of traffic. It was the famous people who came to Jianye with Wang Dun, and they originally wanted to come here today to see the style of Wei Shubao. But......
One of them, with a slightly familiar face, Liu Nong was on the mountain just now, and hurriedly glanced at it. The man walked very slowly, and with the support of his attendants, he walked into the hospital. When hurdling, one accidentally tripped the clogs. He fell to the ground, his head rolling with the stone lines, but he slammed the ground and cried out: "Uncle Bao, Uncle Bao! Pingzi is still here, why are you going? What is sorrow, I hate to be sad together! Uncle Bao ......"
Wang Cheng, Wang Pingzi, and Wei Shubao talked about it, and Pingzi fell three times.
Uncle Shi really went?
Liu Nong blinked, standing in the distance, he couldn't feel his hands and feet, and his head was buzzing. Laifu was saying something to Weitong, and later, Laifu came over, hesitated a few times, and finally said in a low voice: "Wei Langjun, it's gone!" ”
Distinguishing Rifle's lips, his last bit of hope, was in vain.
"Uncle Shi!!"
Liu Nong screamed in pain, threw himself forward, staggered, and the clogs under his feet made a crisp sound and broke; And his eyes were dark, and he fell on his back in the arms of Li Yu, who pounced on him.
