West of the imperial capital, Yunshan Academy.

The academy is hidden in the cloud mountains north of Fanchuan. The mountain is named after the cloud, and the academy is in the cloud mountain, so it is called the Yunshan Academy.

Among the seventy-three peaks of Yunshan, there are four academies, and only this academy can be named after Yunshan. Because it is the family academy of the Jingzhao Wei family, a family surnamed A, and it is also one of the top ten academies in the Tang Dynasty. In the Buyun Pavilion of the academy, Wei Cang, the head of the academy and the head of the Wei family, was receiving an important guest.

The one who can be personally received by Wei Cang is not a grandmaster of the literary world, but a figure of the same level.

But today, she received a junior and a friend who forgot his years.

The maid who was brewing tea outside the pavilion had quietly looked up at this Zhiyuan Taoist Master several times - the person who was famous like thunder and was established by the folk ancestral hall was really young. can make the young maid look at it secretly, in addition to famous figures, it has to be handsome and beautiful, or it has to be a hot topic figure - the first and left Mrs. Shizi of the Tang Dynasty, or the head of the Lanling Xiao family surnamed A, how exciting this news is, how many people's eyes were broken when it spread back then! Even if a few years have passed since that incident, when the maids see the person concerned and the fame of admiration, they can't help but think of the hotly discussed "fierce and separated" back then.

The people in the pavilion didn't care about the maid's peeping, wearing a collar of azure robes dyed blue like snow, showing off her quiet and cold temperament, but it did not make people feel arrogant, there was a quiet and distant bearing, as if "in Nanshan" quiet and leisurely.

Wei Cang praised her with a smile when he saw it, "I haven't seen you for three years, Xiaoyou has won Mr. Tao's true intentions." ”

The head of the family and Shen Qingyi have made friends, letters have been handed over, but it is the second time to see Shen Qingyi, the last time she came to Chang'an to treat the King of Qi, this goodbye, I feel that her spirit is different, reminiscent of the world, but also the famous Taoist predecessors - Mr. Sun's teacher Mr. Tao, the kind of "settled in the human realm, leisurely see Nanshan" of the selfless and unworldly realm.

"Qingyi has seen Yunzhou Shibo." Shen Qingyi stood with his right hand and saluted her.

Wei Cang raised his hand to accept her, let her sit down, and said with a smile: "Zhiyuan has a good state of mind, don't blame the word Nanshan." Compared with the last time I saw you, it seems that there is less restraint in my heart and the burden of forbearance, and my spirit is more open and comfortable. ”

Shen Qingyi couldn't help but sigh at the meticulousness of her observations: she always thought that she had covered it up well, but she didn't expect that the last time she saw Mr. Yunzhou, she could see the forbearance in her heart. smiled and replied: "I don't dare to compare with my ancestor." Qingyi just got what he wanted, and the pain in his heart was gone, so he got the taste of tranquility, and his heart was unhindered, and he was at ease. It is still far from the realm of selflessness of the ancestors. ”

Got what you wanted?

Wei Cang's eyes were surprised, and he had a little guess in his heart, and laughed secretly, Pei Wentong's intentions were afraid that they would be in vain.

When she saw Shen Qingyi today, she was an old friend, and she also meant to trust Pei Chang.

In February of this year, Shen Lun rejected the marriage proposals of several families one by one, saying that Shen Qingyi was concentrating on cultivating Dan Dao and had no intention of marrying. Some families retreated, but Pei Chang did not give up, thinking that his grandchildren were outstanding in appearance and conduct, Shen Zhiyuan had no intention of seeing the real person, if he saw Pei Lizhi, he might change his mind. But Shen Qingyi didn't go out of the Daomen, and the Pei family couldn't find an opportunity, fortunately this time Kyoto held a pharmaceutical exchange meeting, Shen Qingyi participated on behalf of the Medicine Palace, Pei Chang secretly entrusted Wei Cang, a "year-old friend" with Shen Qingyi, and asked her to arrange for two young people to meet.

This is not a big deal, not to mention that Pei Lizhi's talent and appearance are indeed outstanding, and he is also a junior that Wei Cang appreciates, two young people can meet each other, even if they have no intention, they can become friends, but Wei Cang will not be regarded as the main thing, today is still a friend to reminisce, talk about literature, talk about poetry, only to live up to the scenery of the mountain wind, the meaning of the clouds.

The old and the young, with an age difference of nearly thirty years, also talked speculatively, and from time to time there was laughter from the pavilion...... The maids inside and outside the pavilion are also able to hear it, only feel that the words are beady, and contain a distant Taoist realm, although I don't understand, but chewing the taste of the whole has a sense of detachment, and I can't help but sigh: It is really the New Year's friend of the lord of Lang.

Wei Cang took Shen Qingyi out of the pavilion, enjoyed the scenery of Yunshan, walked along the bluestone road between the mountains, walked out of a few scenes, the water was murmuring in front, the bluegrass on the opposite bank was lush, and the green bamboo pavilion was pavilion. Wei Cang glanced at the bamboo forest, turned his head to Shen Qingyi and smiled: "There is a handsome man on the other side, do you want to cross the bridge to see him?" As he spoke, he winked at her again, very interesting to an old child, and whispered, "This is Pei Zhongshu's handy favor to me." ”

She has a warm smile, a liberal temperament, and makes people forget the vulgar when they see it, although she arranges people to go on a blind date, she is open-minded, and whether she sees or not depends on Shen Qingyi, and she does not arrange chance encounters or anything like that.

Shen Qingyi has no ill feelings about this, it is an ordinary thing for the elders to arrange a blind date for the juniors, not to mention that this elder is so frank, of course he wants to give face, so he smiled and replied: "But the eleventh lang of the Pei family?" Wei Cang smiled and pointed to the other side, "There is a pavilion in the forest, called Tao Ran." "The man is in the pavilion.

Shen Qingyi looked at the bamboo forest and said with a smile: "The green bamboo enters the secluded path, and the green radish brushes the clothes." The long song sings the pine wind, and Tao Ran forgets the machine. ”

This is the promise to meet.

Wei Cang laughed and said, "You young people get together by yourself, and the old people don't want to be disliked." So saying, he left a maidservant, and turned around and sprinkled himself.

The long song sings the pine wind, and Tao Ran forgets the machine.

This is just talking about the pine wind and forgetting the worldly scheming.

Pei Wentong's plan is about to fail.

……

In the breeze, the bamboo leaves are rustling, and the sound of the piano is heard.

The man in the green robe who sat casually in the Tao Ran Pavilion had black hair only held by a bamboo hairpin, and his slender fingers flicked the strings, and the sound of the piano did not become a song, but it was like flowing water, gurgling and free. Hearing Shen Qingyi's footsteps, he raised his head, his eyebrows were sparse, his appearance was as clear as ink hibiscus, and his temperament was light and light, like this breezy mountain spring, casual and natural.

Shen Qingyi secretly praised his good bearing and stepped forward into the pavilion.

There was a look of appreciation in each other's eyes when they bowed.

Although the two met for the first time, they were not restrained, they talked freely and calmly, as if they had known each other for a long time, and the Pei family, who was standing far away outside the pavilion, saw that these two seemed to talk very happily and were very like-minded, and they couldn't help but be happy - it seems to be interesting?

Two or three quarters of an hour later, Shen Qingyi got up to say goodbye, and went away with the Taoist servants and maids, Pei Lizhi sat in the pavilion, and sent him off with a long song.

"When will the cold come and the summer will stop? Time flows by water. Fuyun's life is long. Why do you ask for it. The moon in the sky, the waterside building. Must be paid for getting drunk. There is no joy and no worries. Life and freedom. ”

Shen Qingyi heard the clear and distant singing behind him and smiled slightly.

There is no joy and no worries, and life is free.

Pei Shiyi is really a free and easy person.

It's worth intersecting.

The appreciation in my heart is two more points.

Pei Lizhi finished singing a long song, and danced a sword in the bamboo forest, and did not go down the mountain, lingering in Yunshan, catching fish and wild feet, until the time of Shen You, he took his entourage and floated down the mountain. When he returned to Pei's mansion to take a shower and change his clothes, he was called to the courtyard by his grandfather and asked him with concern how he saw each other today, but he was very happy to see each other?

"Into the eye." Pei Lizhi said, "It's a pleasure to see each other." ”

It's rare to meet a like-minded person, but it's not very happy.

Pei Chang frowned, his face was happy, but Pei Lizhi sighed clearly: "It's a pity...... I hate to see each other late. ”

Pei Chang shrugged his eyebrows, "Hate late? ”

"It's a pity, Shen Nanshan already has a crush, can he not hate late." Pei Liyi's face sighed, and he really sighed in his heart, Shen Qingyi's temperament and temperament are indeed what he likes, but it's a pity that they met too late.

Pei Chang took a sip of the teacup and snorted softly, "As long as you haven't gotten married yet, it's not too late." ”

With such a talent and character as his grandson, can't he snatch love with a knife?

If you don't get married, it's not a foregone conclusion.

Pei Lizhi's mind swept over the finger exposed by Shen Qingyi's left hand, shook his head and sighed: "Grandfather, I'm afraid this won't work." Shen Nanshan has been with people for a lifetime, and with her heart, she should be as strong as she is, but this love is difficult to win. ”

About...... Finger?

Pei Chang's teacup flickered, stunned.

Which one is ahead of their Pei family?

***

Shen Qingyi didn't take Pei Chang's scheming to heart, Pei Lizhi is a free and transparent person, and he will definitely make his grandfather let go of his plans to marry.

She didn't go to Chang'an to visit relatives and friends this time, after all, she entered the Dan Dao too late, just to study through those carvings will take a lot of time, the last time she returned to the Daomen, she has not been out of the Shennong Domain, this time she entered Beijing for the five-year National Medical Exchange Conference - sponsored by the Tai Yi Bureau, the medical masters of the Imperial Medical College and the local medical school, as well as the famous doctors of the people, will be invited to participate, and the Medicine Hall is at the top of the list of invitees.

However, in previous years, the Medicine Hall had little interest in this kind of exchange meeting.

The Dan Dao of the Medicine Hall pursues to break through the potential of the human body, and the pursuit of immortality, compared with the medicine that cures diseases in the world, it is like a cloud, a field stalk, how can the cloud lower its head to look at the field stalk? If it weren't for Dao Xuanzi's proposal that "don't pass away in the Medicine Palace", the Dan masters would just want to refine the pill behind closed doors and not anticipate the world. However, in the fifty years since the establishment of the exchange meeting, the Medicine Hall has usually only sent three or four pharmacists from the outer hall to participate, and the Dan Master will not go. But this year was an exception, not only four outer temple pharmacists were sent, but also Shen Qingyi, the inner temple of the Dan master, was sent to let her lead the group to participate.

The Imperial Medical Department was also taken aback by the list that received the immeasurable submission.

But when you think about the theme of this year's conference, the important results that will be launched, it is not surprising that this person should participate.

Of course, the Imperial Medical Department welcomes this, and there is a Danshi in attendance, and he is a personal disciple of Mr. Sun of the Medicine King, and an important figure in the Medicine Palace, which is of course beneficial to improving the grade of the exchange meeting.

The National Pharmaceutical Exchange Conference is not only an exchange between doctors and pharmacists from all parties on medical pharmacy, but also an authoritative platform for releasing new prescriptions and new drugs and publishing papers, especially after the imperial patent law added medicine 30 years ago, the exchanges between doctors and pharmaceutical experts are more active than before, and some unique medical prescriptions are no longer hidden, so that the scale of the exchange meeting every five years is getting bigger and bigger, and the influence is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more medical halls and pharmacies that apply to participate. During the Jingzong Dynasty, the Imperial Medical Department carried out reforms, and brought some industry standards of medicine to the exchange meeting to discuss and solicit opinions. In addition to releasing an important outcome, the Department will also formulate relevant industry standards, one of which will open up a new pharmacy that is different from native pharmacy. These two are the reasons why Daomen sent Shen Qingyi to participate in the exchange meeting.

She had only arrived in Kyoto three days earlier.

After entering Beijing, he went to Shen Mansion to meet his mother-in-law and biological mother.

Since Shen Qingyi married into the Xiao family and was valued by Liang Guogong, Shen Lun, who has never interfered in the affairs of the backyard, privately warned his wife, and Mrs. Lu did not dare to suppress and harsh the Huangfu family on the surface. After the head of the Lu family, Lu Zhi, was demoted, and Mrs. Lu also restrained her usual arrogance in the mansion, and Shen Lun had a long talk with his wife, pointing out Shen Qingyi's interests in the Daomen to the Shen family, hoping that she would treat the Huangfu family leniently. No matter how jealous Mrs. Lu is in her heart, she knows the importance of advancing and retreating, otherwise she will not get Shen Lun's love and respect just by virtue of her family background and her appearance and talent, and although she still has no good color for the Huangfu clan after that, the secret suppression has also stopped, as long as the Huangfu clan does not appear in front of her, she will not be upset if she can't see it. This time Shen Qingyi and Mrs. Lu met, although both sides could not find fault with the number of etiquette, but after all, they were unhappy to see each other, and after saying a few words, Shen Qingyi withdrew and went to Lanzhi Courtyard to meet his biological mother.

The servants and maids guarding the outer courtyard saw the cyan Taoist robe from a distance, and immediately turned around and quickly went in to report: "Yujun Jun, seventeen ladies, no, the Yuan Daoist is back." ”

Not every Huoju Taoist can be called a Taoist master, this is a status level, so which Langjun lady in the family becomes a Taoist master, the servants will definitely be honored as a Taoist master.

Shen Qingyi saw a garden of orchids outside Lanzhi Courtyard from a distance, just like the Lanzhi Courtyard where she was familiar with Wuxing Shen Mansion, there were many orchids planted, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, quiet and fragrant. Just like a mother, driving in the mountains, she is also calm and quiet.

Her pace couldn't help but become eager.

Entering the courtyard, the orchid grass is fragrant, quiet and elegant, the same as in her memory, there is no change, the difference is just a change of place, whether it is Wuxing, Yangzhou or Chang'an, the place where my mother lives will always make people feel warm and quiet. Shen Qingyi felt that his mother was a Youlan in the deep valley, if he didn't meet his father, he could also open freely in the valley. She once planned to pick up her mother, why should she be angry with a little woman, but her mother always smiled slightly and said that it would be good. At that time, she didn't understand, how could this be good? …… When she fell in love with Xiao Yan, she was deeply affected by the pain of love, the unspeakable forbearance of love and the tossing and turning torture of love but not love, and the lovesickness engraved into her soul, she understood that what her mother said was good - because it was good to be by her father's side and grow old with him, compared with loving deeply but not being able to stay together. What the mother asks for is to stay together.

Although she understood, Shen Qingyi did not agree with her mother's choice, if Xiao Yan was so amorous as her father, she would never fall in love with her; But this is her mother's love, it is her mother's happiness, she can't use her own ideas to make decisions for her mother, that's her own happiness, how can it be her mother's wish? She can only respect her mother's choice, and the only thing she can do is to let her mother live better and live longer in the Shen Mansion.

Huangfu Junjun stood under the porch of the inner door to pick up his daughter, with tears hidden in his eyes.

Four years ago, she was the county monarch of the Shen Mansion - this was her daughter's edict to ask for her.

Because of Shen Qingyi's contribution to the cholera plague, he was awarded by the imperial court as a loose official from the fourth grade, and officials above the seventh grade can ask for a decree for their mother, but according to filial piety, the children must first ask for the concubine, only the grandmother has already had a decree and the grade is above the grade of the invitation, and the decree will fall on the head of the biological mother, and Mrs. Lu is already the duchess of the country from the first grade, of course, there is no need for Shen Qingyi's "filial piety", the Huangfu family directly gave the county monarch from the fourth grade from the eighth grade, and became the highest grade below the Chinese duchess of the Shen Mansion. All the concubines had to salute when they saw her. Although Huang Fulan doesn't care about this, she can make her life more quiet and leisurely, and she naturally knows that this is her daughter's intention.

Mother and daughter hugged tightly.

"Auntie!"

"How have you been all these years?"

Shen Qingyi hadn't seen his mother for several years, so he could only send people back from time to time to send health pills back, and arranged for someone to report to his mother from time to time, and he was relieved when he heard that he was in good health, and he raised his eyes to see that his mother's hair was black, her eyebrows and eyes were still bright, and she hadn't seen any gray hair wrinkles for four or five years, and she was happy in her heart, showing joy on her cold face, and she helped her mother's arm forward, revealing a rare tenderness in front of people.

"I'm fine." Huangfu Junjun said with a smile, entered the reading room, took his daughter's hand and sat on the couch, Wen Wen said, "With you making a face for me, no one dares to be angry with me-" The palm touched the finger of his daughter's left hand, his eyes were stunned, his voice paused, he stared down, he was stunned, his hands were a little trembling, and he looked up with surprise and joy, "Wen Yin...... This is? ”

Shen Qingyi held his mother with his left hand, and the luster of the covenant finger on his ring finger flowed, and he could faintly see and Dilian, and said in a gentle voice: "Ah Niang, I have a person who has agreed for a lifetime." ”

Huangfu Junjun's expression was happy and stunned, and after a while, he raised his head and glanced at the grandmother beside him, and the grandmother understood, and immediately took the maids to retreat, pulled up the lattice door, and guarded in front of the door by himself.

Huangfu Junjun gently patted his daughter's left hand, and asked in a nervous whisper, "Who is he?" Born handsome or not? Gentle or not? Inconsiderate? Is it single-minded? You can't ask for an amorous one. It's not okay to be too cold, arrogant, or like-minded. "Her daughter is cold enough, and if she is cold again, will this day be colder and colder? Huangfu Junjun instantly felt that he had to worry a lot.

Shen Qingyi smiled and replied one by one:

"Well, very handsome, she was born very handsome, and there is no one more handsome than her in her generation." Huangfu Junjun is happy and worried, of course he has to have a good appearance to be worthy of his daughter, but he is too handsome, wouldn't he provoke many peach blossoms? "She has a pure character, a big heart, a sincere and frank treat, gentle and thoughtful, and no one is more considerate than her." Huangfu Junjun nodded in his heart, but he was worried, such gentleness, wouldn't it be good for everyone? That's not good. "Her heart is like a stone, she is single-minded, although there are many flowers and plants tempting, she is not tempted." Huangfu Junjun smiled, this is good. A smile flowed into Shen Qingyi's eyes, "Auntie, she's fine." You'll love it. ”

"Okay, okay." Huangfu Junjun is half relieved, his daughter is extremely smart and so capable, whether he can find a Langjun is secondary, the key is to be dedicated, gentle, considerate, not to be strong, but also to be like-minded and fit his daughter's wishes...... Huangfu Junjun secretly said to the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, how long has he been looking forward to it, and finally there is such a person.

Huangfu Junjun asked quietly, "Who is he?" ”

Shen Qingyi smiled slightly, and said softly: "A-Niang, I'll take her to see you, and you'll know." "If my mother knew that the person she agreed to for the rest of her life was Xiao Shizi's sister, I was afraid that she would be uneasy and anxious immediately. When everything is settled, tell your mother.

Like when she was a child, she put her forehead against her mother's face and said mischievously: "A-Niang wants to let me keep it secret." She's doing something important and can't come back now. When she returns, I'll bring her to you. ”

Huangfu Junjun knew that his daughter did things reasonably, not to mention that there must be her considerations, so he smiled and stopped asking, and said, "Okay." I'll wait for you to bring him. ”

I looked forward to it even more.

Who is it that makes her daughter like this?
