Volume 2 The World Is So Big I Want to See Chapter 60 Those Who Are Stuck in the Past
Luoyang City is indeed a little noisy.
This kind of noise is not only reflected in the busier life of Luoyang people, but also due to the more endless flow of people coming from all over the world. Some of these people wanted to come and pay their respects when they heard about the poem, some came for the enthronement ceremony, and of course, there were also those who planned to fish in troubled waters. In order to cope with the increasing number of tourists who flocked to Luoyang City, several gates that had not been opened all year round were also opened at this time, so that the very bloated flow of people was slightly thinner. It's just that it's still crowded, and it will inevitably cause people to be a little dissatisfied, and then see the doorway next to it that is guarded by only one old soldier and few people pass through, so they will curse a few words and try to see if some silver money can be mixed up, and then under the smiling gaze of many gatekeepers, they are kicked out by the old soldier. Of course, the money still has to be collected.
The crowd would burst into laughter, which was one of the few things they had fun. If you are older, you will shout: "Lao Guo, today's wine money will fall on you." Damn, this hard work is really not very interesting, there is no oil and water to fish, so you can sit on your ass for more than ten years without moving. "If the old man who was called Lao Guo was in a good mood, he would wave his hand to signal not to disturb himself and take a nap, and if he was in a bad mood, he would simply ignore it, of course, the wine would still be invited.
"Today's weather is a little hot, and this year's cicadas are calling earlier. Lao Guo lay on the table, yawned listlessly, and thought a little dazed.
Lao Guo is a somewhat special gatekeeper, don't look at him dressed as a soldier, in fact, he is not a soldier who has left the country. He's here to guard the door because he's promised someone he'll keep it until she returns, but he's afraid he'll never be able to wait. Of course, no one will doubt that Lao Guo will do something that is not conducive to Luoyang and is not conducive to leaving the country. Because the person he was waiting for was that Yu Guifei, he was her gatekeeper, from the beginning.
At first, it was the gate of the house, but now it is just the city gate, and it is no different.
He didn't get her back, all he waited for was the news of her death. It was also the only day that he did not guard the door for more than ten years, he broke into the palace, broke into the Jinluan Palace, and loudly asked why Liren was. It was at this time that people discovered that he was actually a great cultivator who was not weaker than the upper realm.
Liren failed to give him an answer, or rather the answer he wanted.
It was also the first time he was drunk, and he vaguely saw the man smile and asked him, "Why don't you guard the door?"
The next day he woke up, he thought
"Then keep going. ”
It's been more than ten years.
Of course, after the angry storming of the Jinluan Palace, Liguo did not use force to forcibly suppress it, and it was also due to Liren's attitude, and he was a little sorry after all. Luoyang has such a free and powerful gatekeeper. The people of Luoyang, who know this story, are not only shocked that Lao Guo is a great cultivator, but also admire Lao Guo's loyalty or infatuation. If you are not familiar with Lao Guo's sloppy and unwilling to pay attention to people all day long, I am afraid that this ability and temperament would have been written into a script by the talented Luoyang people, and he would have been obscene. In fact, in the early years, there were indeed those who were flexible enough to polish Lao Guo's story a little and write him as a cold and handsome peerless swordsman. This story was also quite popular in Luoyang for a while, and there were some little ladies who shyly tried to hook up with Lao Guo. It's just that Lao Guo, who was unbearable, kicked a dog and ate, and the trend gradually subsided. Lao Guo also secretly scolded a certain old man for not repairing a few words, and then shook his head and gave up.
"Ahh But he raised his eyebrows again and couldn't help but think, "Isn't Sister Zhu'er thinking about me as a good brother?" Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a knock on the door of "Tuk Tuk", and hurriedly and skillfully hid the manuscript halfway through the writing, took out a book of poems and put it on the table as a study suit, and whispered solemnly: "Come in." ”
As the door opened with a "squeak", a nerd who looked a little wooden came in with his head bowed, and bowed and said, "I've seen the mountain chief." ”
The old man known as the mountain chief looked at the person in some surprise, and said in his heart that Wu Yong is too lazy to put a fart on weekdays, how can he be willing to say so many things today, but he still said with a pleasant face: "It's rare to see you have something to find me, is it a problem in practice, or some doubts in learning? ”
Wu lowered his head and lips moved slightly, as if he was hesitating how to speak.
The old man was a little distracted and thought, "It's a pity that he didn't participate in that poetry meeting, it's all my unlucky brother's fault, I have to let this kid fix some bullshit 'silent'", "Otherwise, I can write a sequel to the story of the three Yu Liang before, it's a pity." "But you can write about Song Boy, and that old goods are all in vain, all of them are sullen goods. The old man's thoughts turned and he gently stroked his beard with some satisfaction, quite respectful.
Wu Yong finally finished thinking about it, took a light breath and asked, "Why do you want to repay your grievances?"
The old man's movement of brushing his beard paused slightly, frowned and said, "Of course, I will repay my grievances directly." ”
Wu Yong raised his head, looked directly into the old man's eyes, and asked again, "What is straight?"
The old man squinted, put his hand down, and said with some seriousness: "The teachings of the sage hope that we can treat hatred and grievances fairly from the perspective of others, not be carried away by hatred, and deal with problems with integrity. ”
Wu Yong lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then asked seriously again: "Then why take revenge?"
The old man looked at Wu Yong with a complicated face, sighed and said, "Since you asked like this, you must already have your own answer in your heart, so why bother asking me." ”
Wu bowed his head and slowly withdrew, but when he finally turned to leave, he muttered in a low voice: "It's hard to be calm, you should take revenge." ”
The voice was low, but clear in the ears of the old man, the old man could only watch Wu Yong leave with a wry smile, just looking at the back of the white Confucian shirt, he couldn't help but think of his past when he was young and stinky, and he only felt like someone with a very bad temper, and couldn't help but sigh: "This stubborn and grudgeful character is very similar to that old Wang Ba, no wonder that person wants to accept this kid as a closed disciple." ”
The old man shook his head slightly with some nostalgia and sighed: "I hope he can get through this heart, and he will soar to the sky if he can get by." After all, it's hard to settle. ”
At this time, on the top of that Jinluan Palace, the dragon chair that had been empty for many years was finally waiting for its owner. It's just that this master was a little distracted at this time, looking at a certain minister who was arguing below, thinking of the past with some nostalgia.
Liren, who has ignored government affairs for many years, announced that he was going to abdicate, which should have been like a bombshell, and the court should have exploded. The strange thing is that there seems to be some force that has suppressed all this and has not been able to vent it, even the prince has been closed, and the bustle of Luoyang City is different, the court has been quiet and a little weird, until today.
Without warning, the emperor suddenly returned to the Jinluan Palace, and sat on the chair that he had not seen for a long time, which made the ministers below a little incredulous for a while, wondering if they had read it wrong.
It wasn't until I heard the man's long-lost voice that it was finally confirmed. After a short period of silence, the court fell into a boil, some wept, some poured bitter water, some sighed that the sky had eyes, and some chattered endlessly.
"It's a bit noisy. Liren's face was haggard, but there was a trace of abnormal ruddyness, and at this time, looking at the noisy people below, he thought a little absent-mindedly. The person who was the most noisy and loudest in Liren's somewhat empty sight was named He Li. It is the head of the household department and the head of the He family. The He family is a family that has been inherited from the country for thousands of years, although it is not as long as the Wu family and the Sima family, it is still absolutely deep-rooted. He Xun was the leader of the younger generation back then, and he was also a friend who drank and talked happily when Liren had not yet become the emperor, and said that he would fight the world together.
Liren looked at He Li's face, even if he was middle-aged, he was still very well maintained, and he could faintly see the handsome and extraordinary appearance when he was young, and he couldn't help but think of the good-looking man who was praised by her at the beginning, and he was also one of the few people who escaped death with her favor.
He Wei burst into tears, gushing something, covering most of his voice, and from time to time he glared angrily at the people beside him, perfectly interpreting the image of a loyal and loyal minister, and his voice kept echoing in the hall and seemed a little noisy.
Diametrically opposed to He Li's excited performance, there were always a few people in the hall who were silent, such as Han Ru, such as General Sima, such as the scholar of Wu, and the crown prince Li Ran.
The ministers also realized something in the silence of these people, and they all quietly shut up, and for a while, only He Li's own voice was echoing, and He Li suddenly realized something, and his voice stopped abruptly.
Liren came back to his senses at this time, and looked at He Li with a little smile.
After a while, he asked, "I heard that you secretly played some small games?"
He Wei was a little stunned, and in a trance, he seemed to see the emperor who had killed decisively and decisively, his body instantly stiffened, and he couldn't help but sweat coldly, and he quickly knelt on the ground, grabbed the ground with his forehead, and trembled all over his body and didn't dare to make a sound.
Liren's voice was a little flustered and said, "Do you remember what you promised me and her?"
He Li's body trembled more and more obviously, and he said astringently: "Chen remembers." ”
Liren was noncommittal, but said with some regret: "Just remember, since your life was given by her, then give it back to her." ”
"Drag it out, rod. ”
When everyone heard this, they finally remembered this man's iron-blooded methods, and they couldn't help but tremble, and the needles in the main hall could be heard for a while.
