At this time, in the Zhuangzi next door, several people went to the hot spring after dinner, Gu Song and the prince were a little drunk and had already gone to rest, and Gu Mu walked out of the hot spring with only a thin middle coat.

He has a long figure, taller than Fu Zhan, at this time the soaked middle coat on his body highlights the beautiful muscle lines, thin and well-proportioned, he took a silk scarf casually, wiped it between his slender neck, and a head of black hair was scattered on his broad shoulders, Fu Zhan looked at him in the hot spring water, and couldn't help but say: "Guannan, you are at the age of blood and strength, why don't you marry a wife for a long time?" ”

Fu Zhan thought that his face, temperament, and body shape were not as good as him, but the men in their army all won the battle and wanted to go home early and sleep with their daughter-in-law, so he didn't believe him Gu Guannan didn't want to.

Fu Zhan followed and said, "Don't say what Master Hongyuan gave you divination, I don't believe it." ”

Gu Mu chuckled lightly and avoided talking to him: "Xunzhi returned to Beijing this time, it's time to get married." ”

Gu Mu said this to Fu Zhan's heart, when he first led the troops to fight, he had the upbringing of a son of a family in his bones, and he knew etiquette, righteousness and shame, but there were military prostitutes in the barracks, and the soldiers were all landlubbers, strong and strong, and those who shouted military prostitutes were itching in their hearts, and no man wanted to fly immortals night and night without knowing sorrow, but he, until now, is still a fucking one who has never opened meat.

Fu Zhan is one year younger than Gu Mu, but he has already reached the age of marrying a wife, and his mother is looking at him, but no matter how hungry he is, he has not liked it at a glance.

Fu Zhan also got up from the hot springs, talked about business, and said while walking towards Gu Mu: "Guannan, the prince of Pingjiang died in Xuanzhou City, this matter is over?" ”

About the years ago, the king of Pingjiang, who was in Shu, sent his eldest son to Shangjing to meet His Majesty, and went to the imperial tomb to pray for the blessing of his ancestors, the courtiers all heard of it, but until the Shangyuan Festival passed, no one saw half of the shadow of the prince of Pingjiang.

Gu Muyan's expression remained unchanged when he heard this, but he remembered who the prince of Pingjiang was killed, and he said in a calm tone: "Xunzhi, when you first returned to the capital, some things are still waiting, but there is only a prince of Pingjiang, can you think about it, why did Your Majesty let me go to Xuanzhou City in person?" ”

Fu Zhan understood from Gu Mu's eyes.

Your Majesty, it is to leave the life and death of the prince of Pingjiang to Guannan to decide.

Fu Zhan laughed a few times, stopped talking about the matter, and turned the topic back to a private matter: "Guannan, you and I have known each other since childhood, you know, the Zhuangzi of the girl next door is bound to win, you help me say a word in front of her." ”

As he spoke, Gu Mu had already changed his clothes, and his tone was calm: "This matter can only be tried." ”

Fu Zhan seemed to have thought of something, and laughed again: "I have a good idea, I will go directly to the capital to show my mother, and say that I want to marry Miss Rong as my wife, so that in the future, you and I will be separated, and the two Zhuangzi will naturally be in one place." ”

Gu Mu lowered his eyes: "It's a good idea." ”

He motioned for Fu Zhan to sit, his expression was slightly heavy, there was no suitable peace, the smile on Fu Zhan's face faded, and he said in a calm voice: "What does Guannan have to say?" ”

Gu Mu picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of tea, the Zhuangzi he was invited to Fu Zhan this time was also for this matter, and said bluntly: "The Huns have repeatedly violated my border, and they have been more arrogant in the past two years. ”

Gu Mu only said a few words, and Fu Zhan's blood as a military general was instantly ignited, there was a heat in his chest, Fu Zhan's thick eyebrows twisted slightly, and the cup in his hand fell in front of Gu Mu with a 'bang', and his voice was low: "Guannan, you-" finally reason suppressed his emotions, Fu Zhan laughed self-deprecatingly: "Your Majesty emphasizes literature and light martial arts, and our military generals are disliked by some literate courtiers in the court, which man is willing to watch the Xiongnu repeatedly invade the frontier and rob us of food, livestock, and even women, but Your Majesty does not give an order, how can we throw blood on the battlefield." ”

Fu Zhan said that he was excited, the cup in his hand was clenched by him, the green tendons on the back of his hand were immediately visible, and he looked straight at Gu Mu, he knew that since Guan Nan had mentioned this matter to him today, he must have a strategy in his heart, perhaps, for today's words, he had been planning for a long time.

Fu Zhan's performance, Gu Mu was very satisfied, he raised his eyes and looked at Fu Zhan: "After the Qingming Ancestor Worship Ceremony, if there is no accident, Your Majesty will allow the protector general Qi Bing to lead troops to attack the Xiongnu, and then Xun Zhi is willing to go into battle as a deputy general?" ”

Fu Zhan smiled: "If Your Majesty makes an order, I am willing." ”

Gu Mu raised his hand and added a cup of tea to Fu Zhan: "General Qi Bing and I have had a secret conversation, but there are many people who are content with peace in the Manchu Dynasty, and there will definitely be many obstacles, and there may be insufficient supplies of food and grass on the front line at that time, but you can rest assured that I have arranged everything." ”

Fu Zhan believed in Gu Mu, but he had doubts: "Da Yin has been emphasizing literature over military force for a hundred years, this can't be changed overnight, even if His Majesty treats Guannan and trusts him again, this matter is also-" Fu Zhan didn't continue to speak, since Gu Mu talked to him today, it must not be a whim, he is a military general, regardless of the plans of these powerful ministers.

Gu Mu chuckled, looked calm, picked up the cup and took another sip of tea.

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Mu walked out of the warm pavilion, the wind and snow outside were even worse, colder than in the capital above, and under the dark sky, only the dim yellow light emitted from the dim lampshades on both sides of the road.

His eyes looked towards the Zhuangzi next door, and he was about to take a step, but Fu Zhan also walked out and scolded: "It's really fucking cold, haven't you all played spring." ”

"Guannan, your yard is over here, what are you doing to the north?"

Gu Mu replied to him: "Enjoy the snow." ”

Fu Zhan didn't have this interest, turned around and went back to his courtyard.

In the open Zhuangzi, Gu Mu walked steadily, Jingsi followed behind him, and there seemed to be the sweetness of the sugar gourd on the night of the Shangyuan Festival in his mouth: "Childe, it's really cold this night, and I don't know how the cousin lives there, I heard the people in the Zhuangzi say that the houses in the Zhuangzi next door are very simple, and I don't know if there is carbon." ”

Jing Si followed behind his son-in-law and muttered, hoping that his son-in-law could change his indifferent temperament before, and for the sake of the old lady's love for his cousin, let him go for a trip and see if the cousin lived over there.

But he talked for a while, and he didn't see a response from his son.

Jing Si: "Alas. ”

——

Here, Ye Yi boiled hot water, filled up the soup woman, and was about to go to serve the pot of charcoal, when he saw two figures from a distance, Ye Yiyi thought she was dazzled, and after looking at it for a while, she saw who it was.

She stepped forward and saluted: "I've seen the second son." ”

Gu Mu's eyes were deep, he glanced into the room, and asked, "Is your girl sleeping?" ”

Ye Yi: "Not really. The house in this village is poorly maintained, and only charcoal can be used, and the girl is not feeling well at this time, and the slave is about to go to get charcoal. ”

Gu Mu didn't think about it when he heard this, he walked to the door, and asked in a calm voice: "It's cold at night outside the city, and there is still a vacant house in Zhuangzi next door, so my cousin and I will go to live next door for one night." ”

He was asking, but there was no doubt about it.

Rong Wen nested in the futon, she didn't expect Gu Mu to come at this hour, she curled up into a ball with abdominal pain, as if the whole person was relying on that soup woman to survive.

She raised a little strength and replied to him: "No need, thank you second cousin." She didn't want to move at this moment, she just wanted to curl up and protect herself.

It's okay if she doesn't speak, as soon as she opens her mouth, she looks like a dying person, Gu Mu heard her voice weak, with both the softness of the sleep and the pain that couldn't be concealed, he frowned slightly and looked at Ye Yi on the side.

Ye Yi didn't say that her girl came to Guishui, so it's better not to tell a man about such a thing, but at this time, Gu Mu looked at her, and Ye Yi said it truthfully.

Gu Mu instructed Jing Si outside the house: "Go back to the courtyard and let someone clean up a side room and come out, burn the silver silk charcoal, and then let someone go to the kitchen to hang the soup." ”

Jing Si was shocked and stunned because he followed his son-in-law here, and at this time, he listened to his son-in-law's instructions, so he hurriedly returned to the Zhuangzi next door in a daze.

He said those words in front of his son, and he didn't expect his son-in-law to run in person, but this 'snow appreciation' was rewarded in his cousin's Zhuangzi.

Gu Mu instructed Ye Yi again: "Serve your girl and get up." ”
