Volume 2 The Rivers and Lakes in the Temple and Outside the Temple Chapter 178 The old man returns, and the peach blossoms bloom spontaneously
When the old man returns, the peach blossoms bloom spontaneously
The cicadas chirped to wake up the middle of summer.
The team of hundreds of people slowly moved forward, Jiang Ming rode a white horse and walked in front, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, there seemed to be two suns on this day, and the soldiers took off their armor one after another, even he was just wearing a white coat and holding a spear.
Now that the war has subsided, and it is in the territory of the Holy Dynasty, there is no need to wear armor to prepare for war at any time.
Jiang Ming saw a continuous forest in front of him, and immediately asked the team to rush over, stopping to avoid the scorching sun.
After all the soldiers stopped, Jiang Ming dismounted and rushed to the back of the team.
There were two big cars in the team, Jiang Ming opened the first one, Xue Pan was lying in the car, his eyes closed, and he kept shouting a certain name.
And Xu Changan sat on the side, and Shen Lang sat beside Xu Changan with Xiaobai in his arms.
"Are you better?" Jiang Ming asked in a low voice, for fear of disturbing Xue Pan's dream.
Xu Changan nodded and said, "I'm almost there, as for him, the left eye is gone, but the doctors you sent still have a little ability, his life is already fine, those doctors said that after taking a few more medicines, the temperature will be lowered, and it will be fine." ”
Jiang Ming looked at Xue Pan, who was still asleep and talking in his dreams, thought for a while and said, "I originally thought that this kid was just a fool with Xie Tiannan, but I didn't expect this battle to be so brave, and I didn't disgrace his father Xue Zhengwu." ”
Xu Changan looked at Xue Pan, sighed in his heart, then smiled at Jiang Ming, pointed at him and then pointed at himself and said: "Everyone is a gentleman, and everyone is a hero." ”
Jiang Ming remembered the scene when the three of them met for the first time in Chang'an, and he didn't know how many houses they had destroyed, wasn't this an act of deceit? He smiled, diverted the topic and asked, "Which young lady is this kid shouting?"
When Shen Lang heard this, his big eyes widened and he looked good.
"The woman that Brother Xue Pan is thinking about should be a gentle and virtuous lady......, right?" he wanted to say "like my sister", but fortunately he stopped immediately.
Xu Changan seemed to remember something, and reluctantly smiled: "The Chunwang he called is not a lady, and it has nothing to do with gentleness and virtuousness." ”
This sentence immediately aroused the interest of the two, and they hurriedly asked, "Then what kind of girl is she?"
Xu Changan smiled mysteriously and said, "When you get to Chang'an, you will know." ”
He turned his head and asked Jiang Ming, "How many days do you have to reach Chang'an?"
"Two days. ”
Xu Changan thought of Gonggong Hao, his eyes narrowed, and his voice suddenly became cold.
"And how is he?"
Jiang Ming had a tacit understanding with him and said, "You should wake up before you arrive in Chang'an, right?"
Xu Changan remembered what Father-in-law Hao did, the corners of his mouth bent down, and his eyes became sharp.
"He can't be unguarded, and he is a popular person around the Holy Emperor, if he goes to Chang'an first, I'm afraid that the three of us will still have some trouble at that time. ”
Jiang Ming immediately understood what Xu Changan meant.
"Don't worry, this time we only brought hundreds of people into Chang'an, or to protect you, Guo Fen's kid is delayed, and there is a big car behind you, and Daochang Ge and Gonggong Hao are inside. I prepared a few bricks for Dao Ge in the back to make it easier for him. ”
Xu Changan shook his head and smiled: "How to use it?"
Jiang Ming pointed at him, showed a "you know" expression, and got out of the car.
......
Since the fall of the Four Great Families, the Holy Emperor has ordered the relief of refugees who have quietly escaped from Yuedi.
Not only that, but refugees were also encouraged to reclaim farmland outside the city and distribute farm tools and subsidies.
At the same time, the new Oiran of Guixiang House is also famous.
She took out a large sum of money every month to help refugees from Vietnam and help them tide over the difficulties.
The people were so grateful to Dade that they didn't even build a temple for her.
The Oiran's repeated persuasions were useless, so he had to go with the people, but since then, these acts of kindness and charity have not been done personally.
People thought that this Oiran with the heart of a bodhisattva and the appearance of a fairy was afraid of causing a riot, so he closed his door.
Only her maid knew that her own young lady would go out, and every time she wore a green slave dress, she would go to Sanlixi outside the city, look at the two new tombs in a daze, and murmur to those two tombs.
The peach blossoms in Sanlixi have fallen early, and the trees are followed by reddish fruits, just like the shy cheeks of everyone when they see their hearts.
The young lady spoke to the two tombs, and then looked at the reddish peach in a daze, and then looked into the distance.
Not only that, but the young lady would often go out in slave clothes, specifically looking for someone to inquire about the situation of the war in Yuedi, and would hesitate at the door of the mansion of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
Mademoiselle never explained anything to her, and in her impression, she was a kind-hearted eccentric.
In the past few days, the results of the battle of Yuedi have reached Chang'an, and the whole world celebrates.
In her imagination, the young lady should be very happy, but the young lady was bored in the house all day, closed doors.
On this day, a fast horse entered Chang'an.
Soon, a notice was posted at the palace.
When the people saw the notice, they immediately boiled.
The Mingde Gate was opened, and the people welcomed the general's return.
When the Oiran heard this, he slammed the door open, wearing a long green dress.
A group of carriages and horses slowly entered Chang'an, and the people continued to cheer, especially the refugees who came out of Yuedi, who had been adrift in a foreign land for more than ten years, and were finally able to go back.
Jiang Ming naturally didn't like to be in the limelight, he got off the horse and squeezed together with Ge Zhouyi and Hao Gonggong.
The people waved small flags and kept shouting their names.
There are Xu Changan, Jiang Ming and Guo Fen.
Of course, the battle report came to Xue Pan, who was injured in his left eye, and the son of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department suddenly swept away the influence he had left on the people and became a hero.
Looking at the cheering crowd, Xu Changan was dumbfounded, encountering this situation for the first time.
He covered his ears and honestly hid in the carriage.
At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside.
I saw a woman in a green dress rush past the soldiers guarding the road and burst in.
The soldiers tried to pull her out, but she lay on the ground, splashing and rolling.
The little maid standing in the crowd was suddenly shocked
With a big mouth, she had the impression that Miss's ladies were still delicate, and she never thought that Miss would also splash and roll.
The carriage and horse stopped, and the woman covered in mud was carried out by the soldiers, but her legs kept upside down, and she shouted loudly: "I want to see the prince, I want to see Xue Pan!"
Xu Changan heard the voice and dragged his weak body out.
He saw a familiar face, which had lost a lot of weight.
He waved his hand, and the soldier let go of the woman.
The woman in green walked in front of Xu Changan, only then did she react and immediately knelt down.
Xu Changan helped her up, and the woman asked slowly with tears on her face, "What about him?"
Xu Changan's face changed, he lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, the level of military doctors is limited......"
When the woman heard this, she immediately lowered her head, as if she had lost her soul, and her whole person fell, almost falling, and her face was full of tears.
She turned slowly and took a difficult step.
At this time, there was a sound in the carriage, and a one-eyed young man got out of the carriage with difficulty.
"Little maid!" a weak voice came from behind her, and the woman in the green dress turned around, her face full of tears, but the corners of her mouth were hooked into a smile.
She lifted the hem of her skirt and ran towards the young man, and the two hugged each other tightly.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were ......," the woman whispered.
Xue Pan hugged Chunwang, his lips were white, but his face was happy.
"I'm sorry to say, how can you be worthy of you, I walked on the edge of life and death for a while, and I have the current me. ”
Chunwang suddenly lightly hammered Xue Pan's shoulder, and said coquettishly: "Why did you lie to me just now?"
"That was the idea of the Son of the World......"
"No matter, blame you. ”
Xue Pan hugged Chunwang and whispered in her ear: "I'm sorry, I'm late, I wanted to come back to see the peach blossoms in Sanlixi with you, and by the way, I would like to pay tribute to your young lady and Mr. Lu Ziang." ”
Hearing this, Chunwang bit his lip tightly, and then stopped the crying that was about to surging again.
"It's okay, when you're well, we'll go and see it together. ”
"But this peach blossom? Also, I've become a one-eyed dragon. Xue Pan hesitated.
The little maidservant buried her head in his arms and said, "I can't see the peach blossoms this year, but there will be next year, ten, twenty, thirty years in the next ......."
Then she added: "One-eyed dragon, that's right, you will only have one me." Hmph, let's talk about peach blossoms again, am I not as good as peach blossoms?"
When Xue Pan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately said in surprise: "Your peach blossoms are more beautiful!" and then added: "There are really still several decades?"
Chunwang nodded shyly.
Xue Pan lifted her chin, pinpointed her red lips, and kissed it at once.
Xu Changan looked at this scene in horror, there were still many people around! Immediately, he was a little envious, and there was also a girl waiting for her to enjoy the peach blossoms of Shushan.
He sighed and applauded first.
Suddenly, the people were also excited, with thunderous applause and bursts of cheers!
