Chapter 12 Xun You's thoughts
As soon as he walked to the end of the corridor, Xun You heard a beautiful piano sound from the small pavilion, and the notes were full of the girl's thoughts.
Fortunately, listening to the music that gradually became clear, Xun You's somewhat apprehensive heart finally landed. His mood improved only because of the sound played by his sister, which was adapted from Jiang Qi's 'Mingyue Fu', and then came out of Cai Yong's mansion.
Although some people say that the song was composed by Cai Yan, those who are familiar with it know that it was given to Cai Yan after Jiang Qi's score, and it just so happened that Xun You was one of the insiders.
Thinking of this, Xun You felt a little sorry, why couldn't two people who were so well matched be together, of course, he admired Jiang Qi even more for being able to let go freely, and in private, several people also said that Jiang Qi had the virtue of a gentleman.
After a few knocks on the door, the sound of the piano in the room stopped abruptly, and after two breaths, the door slowly opened, and gradually a woman in a pale yellow skirt appeared in front of Xun You.
The woman's goose egg face, eyebrows like green feathers, muscles like snow, waist like a bundle of hormone, like a smile and teeth like braided shells. This girl is Xun You's only sister, Xun Xin, who has just arrived at the door, saw that it was his brother standing at the door, Xun Xin smiled and said: "When did my brother come back, hurry up and enter the houseγγγγγγ"
Xun You also entered his sister's boudoir politely, and said after entering the door: "I didn't think that my little sister would also play Mingyue Fu!" β
"My brother should know that there are many literati and writers in Yingchuan, and such good news came out of Luoyang as early as March. By the way, has my brother seen this Mingyue Gongzi in Luoyang? Xun Xin said with a smile and generously, although he had just arrived at Lu, he already had everyone's demeanor.
Xun You gently plucked the yaoqin that Xun Xin had just played, and said lightly: "Oh, the little sister is talking about Jiang Boxiao's son, right?" Of course! Brother Wei has long been friends with Boxiao in Luoyang, and they have had a long talk together, but unfortunately since he joined the army, the military law is strict, and he hasn't seen him for a long time. β
'Bang' Hearing Xun You's words, Xun Xin, who was about to pour water for his brother, knocked over the cup and poured warm water on the table. Xun Xin, who was out of shape for a while, hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe off the water traces, poured a glass of water for his brother again, and then asked a little excitedly: "Brother, can you tell my little sister about Jiang and Jiang Gongzi?" After speaking, Xun Xin couldn't help but blush.
"Haha, Brother Wei saw that the little sister was hanging all over the house with poems made by Boxiao, and he knew what you thought. Well, I'll talk to him about it now if I have nothing to do, Bo Xiao and my little sister are slightly older, and they are over eight feet tallγγγγγγγ"
Xun Xin, who listened to it all the time, was fascinated, and when he heard that Jiang Qi and Cai Yan couldn't be together, his eyes were filled with tears, and he couldn't help but want to see Jiang Qi.
"Jiang Gongzi is so pitiful, he lost his beloved in order to serve the country, I don't know what happened to Jiang Gongzi now, he must be sad." Xun Xin said with some sadness.
"Yes! However, Bo Xiao is very good. Xun You looked at his sister whose eyes were a little red, and then said: "Bo Xiao is a man who stands up to the sky, if anyone becomes his wife, he will definitely make women all over the world envious." β
Seeing his brother's mysterious smile, Xun Xin seemed to feel something, and said with a red face: "Brother, why did you say this to Xin'er!?" β
"Heyγγγγ think about it, it's been more than ten years since my father and mother passed away, my little sister was only two years old at the time, and now she has grown up to be a woman who has grown up in the country. Brother Wei thinks that Boxiao is the person that his sister can entrust for life, what does Xin'er think? Xun You didn't hide it, and said straightforwardly.
"Brother, brother, suddenly give, give to the core, Xin'er said, , how did Xin'er answer?" Xun Xin had already blushed his cheeks, and whispered with his head buried in his head.
"Hahaγγγγγγ in fact, I heard my little sister playing music today, and I already knew that I was a brother after seeing my little sister's expression in the room, and this time my little sister will go to Luoyang with my brother! If you have fate!? β
After listening to what his brother said, Xun Xin, who was blushing for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "It's all up to me, my brother is in charge", and then ran to the bedroom with a blushing face.
Back in the bedroom, Xun Xin looked at the song hanging on the edge of the couch that often sang the 'beauty fu' and was drunk again, she never thought that the talented man who had imagined the appearance countless times in her dreams would be able to become her husband.
Xun You, who was clearly talking to his sister about his intentions, knew that he had no way out, and he had already put his future on Jiang Qi, a young man who was still too young, even if their identities were different, it was not easy for his sister to marry the Jiang family.
Going out and looking up at the sky that was about to end, Xun You didn't know if what he did today was right, but he knew that at least he wouldn't lose, at least he found a good husband for his sister, even if it was wishful thinking.
γγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγγ
And just when Xun Yu was calculating Jiang Qi, Jiang Qi in the dock was also calculating, but their calculations were different.
Jiang Qi stretched out tiredly, then rubbed his eyes that were a little dizzy, and finally shook his head and walked out of a room full of things. Also coming out with him was his eldest uncle Jiang Hai.
At the door of the door, the guards with swords and armor outside the door hurriedly saluted. Jiang Qi beckoned Jiang Feng, who had just come over with the patrol, and said, "What! Is there anything suspicious? β
"Everything is normal when I go back to my uncle and brother." Jiang Feng hugged his fists and saluted, after half a year of hard training, Jiang Feng, who was originally tall, was close to eight feet tall, which can be described as a tiger's back and bear's waist, and the fierce aura exuded by his body made people retreat. The same person is also a lot calmer, but the comfortable life still makes his face a little tender, and he still needs to exercise more.
"Don't slack off on the wind, the house contains most of the clan's belongings, and the relationship is very important." Jiang Hai reminded in a serious voice.
Among the children of the elders, Jiang Hai is the only one who stays in the dock fort to take care of it, and of course he is also the most likely to inherit the head of the family, for the position of the head of the family, he also has to stay in the dock fort to protect the family business, although there are many guards in the castle. But Jiang Hai is still a little bottomless in his heart, he must be too young Jiang Qi, even if he is doing well these days.
"Uncle rest assured, there are 100 elites under the command of my nephew living in the courtyard, and 50 of my brother's subordinates can be described as impregnable. Moreover, there are cavalry guards of the second brother around the compound, which is absolutely foolproof. Jiang Feng swore and promised.
"That's the best, or we'll be guilty of it." , Although Jiang Hai is still a little worried, plus the one that was just sent today, nearly 100,000 taels of gold have been hoarded in the room of this small courtyard, not to mention those boxes of five baht coins and all kinds of jewelry and cloth. Just now, he almost fainted in the face of so many possessions, not to mention that others were not greedy.
Walking out of the heavily guarded courtyard, Jiang Hai wiped the sweat on his head due to nervousness, and said, "Uncle is still a little uneasy, does Qi'er strengthen the guards?" β
"Well, that's fine! Be prepared. In this way, Uncle will go and select a team of guards composed of all the children of the clan in a while, and let them be stationed next to the small courtyard as a reserve army, and be ready to provide support. Jiang Qi nodded after thinking about it.
"It's so good, these things are related to the rise and fall of the clansmen and have to be prevented!" Hearing Jiang Qi's support, Jiang Hai emphasized again. Of course, how could such a large amount of wealth make Jiang Hai not nervous.
Saying goodbye to his apprehensive uncle and returning to the hall, Luoyang Ling Zhou Yi was already waiting there, and Zhou Yu was talking to him beside him. Seeing this, Jiang Qi hurriedly walked quickly, and saluted Zhou Yi, who got up: "Uncle has made you wait for a long time, Qi is here to apologize!" β
"Bo Xiao doesn't need to be polite, how is that now." Zhou Yi didn't say much to get to the point, since his son Zhou Yu came back that day to tell him how Jiang Qi felt, he had sent someone to quietly investigate, and determined that the general signs of Taiping Dao were really a little abnormal.
"The Taiping Daoqi who infiltrated my mansion in the name of preaching has been taken into custody, and those people have confessed that they only entered the family in the name of their own master, that is, Tang Zhou, the envoy who just arrived in Luoyang, and tried to obtain more money and believers, and the rest do not know how much." Jiang Qi sighed and said.
"How is that good, am I guessing wrong, if you frame the people in the Daomen like that, you will be punished by the court." Zhou Yi frowned when he heard Jiang Qi's words.
"Uncle, rest assured, since those people dare to do it, they will leave a flaw, Qi has already sent his cronies to break into the Taiping Dao to get close to Tang Zhou, and the last letter was intercepted by them. However, I don't dare to act on my own for fear of causing chaos, and my uncle knows when His Majesty will γγγγ."
"According to the news that came back, His Majesty seems to be a little unhappy this hunt, and it has ended early, counting the time, it will be a few days of the beginning of the year and will return to Luoyang, and it will not exceed the tenth day of the first month at the latest. By the way, I heard that Yuan Benchu shot a cheetah in this winter hunt, which saved some face for His Majesty, and was named the Tiger Benzhonglang General. β
"Really? But it's no wonder that with his original family background, it was a matter of time before he was given an official position. Counting the time, His Majesty will be back in about ten days, and the time should be enough. In this way, my uncle will send his cronies these days to find out the strongholds where the Taiping Dao disciples often go, and at that time, I will also ask the brothers who have entered the Taiping Dao to send some places to my uncle that he knows, so that when the time comes, I can reduce unnecessary trouble. β
"What is the best time for Boxiao?"
"When Your Majesty is still in the capital, there are some things that I may not believe in the court, after all, the matter is too serious. It may not be a good thing for others to come forward in these things, the little nephew already has a plan, uncle rest assured, as for waiting until His Majesty returns to Beijing, the main reason is that he is afraid that His Majesty will encounter an accidentγγγγγγ"
"Understood, in this way, prepare everything for Uncle to return to the city first." The jaw head agreed with Jiang Qi's meaning, Zhou Yi said and smiled at Jiang Qi, and then looked at the son who seemed to understand the matter and said: "The dog has caused trouble to Boxiao these days, and the old man is here to thank you." β
After Jiang Qi hurriedly returned the salute, how could he not understand what Zhou Yi meant, looked at Zhou Yu and praised: "Uncle is serious, I am commensurate with Brother Yu, it is natural for my brother to take care of my younger brother, and Brother Yu is very smart, he usually helps Qi a lot, and it is unlimited." β
"Now that the situation is unstable, why don't you go back to the house with your uncle this time? Originally, Qi wanted Brother Yu to go back to the city with my mother, but Brother Yu didn't agree. β
"So, what do I think?" Zhou Yi thought the same way just now, after all, staying outside the city is much more dangerous than being in the city.
Although Jiang Qi and Zhou Yi did not agree with Zhou Yu to stay here any longer, the young Zhou Yu did not compromise so easily, and immediately got up and retorted: "Yu, when I followed my brother to learn Tao Strategy, I was going to the battlefield one day and serving the country, and now that the big war is just around the corner, how can Yu miss it, Yu implores his father and brother to fulfill it." After speaking, Zhou Yu bowed to the ground and made a big salute.
Zhou Yi saw that his son had made up his mind and it was not easy to persuade him again, so he had to nod his head and agree, and he felt very much in the center of his jaw that the second son would be better than the eldest son who was still confused.
At the end, he asked Jiang Qi and said, "That's it, then it will be more troublesome Boxiao." β
