Luoyang Old Things Father
eighteen
The red boat is a tool for going to and from the blue and white building in the river, and the hull is even brushed with red oil on the oars, which means that the red line in the old man's hand affects the marriage, and the boatman needs to wear a hat and shout while paddling: "Continue the marriage, you must be happy, and you will pay back tonight." β
Nameless left the Drunken Immortal Residence and went to the red boat of the childless pine, and the roadside seekers were all discussing with great interest the gold medal oiran of the manager's workshop, Murong Yunduo, describing his graceful posture and versatility as a stunner in the world.
Nameless is very disgusted with the erosive life of the wind and snow, and after entering the red boat, he saw the childless pine, and his heart was full of mixed feelings, which was indescribable.
The red boat rowed, did not go to the Qinglou, but rowed to the middle of the Qingming River to stop, Zi Zi Song is middle-aged and old, strong, ruddy, energetic, while making tea while looking at Wu Ming, smiled and asked him to sit down.
Nameless has seen many faces, but the childless pine has a dignified and imposing face, serious and kind, which is exactly the same as the father figure he conceived.
In twenty years, the father and son met for the first time, and the two sat down to drink tea.
"Nameless, it's hard for you to escort the princess back to Northern Han. β
β...... It's not hard. β
"If you don't mind, you can call your father, and if you don't mind, you can dismiss you, I am treating your mother and son badly. β
"Mother and I are very well in Yanguo, and when I see you this time, I want to say hello to you on her behalf. β
These words made Wuzisong feel relieved, and he smiled very warmly, and also vaguely touched Nameless's desire for father's love.
"I'm doing well, I'm physically and mentally healthy, but I'm a little thin, so I have to eat more and go to bed early and exercise diligently. β
"To tell you the truth, when I arrived at the border of the Northern Han Dynasty, why did Fearless want to kill me?"
Nameless has something to say, I can meet this time, I don't know when I can meet, and I need to solve all the doubts in my heart.
Wuzisong was stunned when he drank tea, as if he didn't know anything about the border, so he sighed and said, "Let's tell the story of me and your mother first." β
"That year was the first time I rushed to Luoyang to participate in the scientific expedition, full of confidence, but the result was missing the champion, had to explore the flowers, although the results were good, but I was not satisfied, especially sad, until I met Chen Pingping. β
During those days, Chen Pingping was a celebrity in Luoyang, her beauty and talent were peerless, and there were countless high-ranking officials and rich people under her skirt, but she was very arrogant, except for playing the pipa at the beginning of the month, she never left the room. β
"Although I was in high school to explore flowers, but refused to serve in the Hanlin Academy, did not return to the county as a master, wandered away from the Qingming River to write poems and paintings, and often saw Chen Pingping's figure through the window, I liked it very much, so I created twelve volumes of "Luoyang Qingming Riverside Map", each volume is a different scene, but each volume has her figure, but also with elegant verses. β
"Last night the east wind woke up from a dream, and it rained with frost for twenty-five years. I don't remember the flowers and moons in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no spring in my heart. ββThe seemingly elegant and lustless verses have won the hearts of beauties. (Mu Qiuhan's "Drunken Dream Song")
Nameless looked at the long river through the window, and listened to Wuzisong tell about the past, as if the old picture came to mind.
"The same is the end of the world, why should we have known each other. Although I am a flower explorer, I don't want to be an official, I am still worried, although Chen Pingping is favored, but I am still sad when I am in a foreign land, and I am still sad for a long time, until the two know each other, cherish each other, and every early moon, I will take a boat tryst and talk happily. β
"I met Chen Pingping very happy, in four years, we from acquaintances to confidants, from confidants to lovers, a sensation in Luoyang City, but also ushered in the scientific examination again, that year, I won the champion became the focus, directly promoted to the five civil officials. β
"It was precisely the splendid career that made me confused, became valuing fame and fortune, was busy with socializing, and ignored the lovers around me, making myself increasingly estranged from Chen Pingping. β
Speaking of this, Wuzisong's face was embarrassed, and he seemed to feel remorse, nameless and considerate, after all, at that time, his reputation was growing and his future was getting higher, and if he had to chase power, power would naturally come over.
The two had different concepts, and finally parted ways, and the heartbroken Chen Pingping disappeared. Half a year later, I was promoted to Honglu Siqing, and I also met and married Sima Li, the daughter of the head of the household, and had a son, Fearless. β
"As for Chen Pingping's hiding in Yanguo to give birth to a baby boy, I learned very late, and I also know that it is irretrievable, since she wants to live a dull life, then according to her wishes, concealing the relationship between our father and son can be regarded as a kind of protection for you. β
"Nameless, as you can see from your name, your mother has a grudge and revenge for me, and I have indeed unintentionally failed her and abandoned her. β
After sighing, Wuzisong shed tears, full of chagrin and shame, he kept asking to compensate Nameless, but Nameless did not come to ask for compensation, as long as the truth.
"I understand all of this, and I can't blame you entirely. β
"Nameless is very sensible, as for fearless insistence on killing you, he is just confused for a while, he is afraid that your return to the Northern Han Dynasty will threaten the status of the family, if he is still in Luoyang, I will make him kowtow to you and admit his mistakes. β
"I'm still alive, so forget it, it also shows that I don't need any compensation, and I don't fight for the slightest property, just escort the princess back to the Northern Han, and I have to investigate some things. β
"Nameless, you are an outsider, it is difficult to know information about Luoyang, and as Honglu Siqing, although I am in charge of diplomatic affairs, I have a lot of information in my hands, and I also have spies, I may be able to help you." β
Nameless hesitated and couldn't do anything, and it would be different if there was no son to help.
"I'm your father, and the only person you rely on in Northern Han, don't you still want to trust me?"
"Do you know Lin Xiang's daughter, Lin Yun'er?"
"Knowing that there is this person, she is a talented woman in Luoyang, and she left the capital some time ago, and there has been no news. β
"Lin Yuna was assassinated while escorting the princess, and I was about to investigate who was behind the scenes. β
"This matter will be investigated by your father, you will go back to Yanguo to take care of your mother first, and then we will use the flying pigeon letter to contact us. β
"But I'm going to find out for myself!"
"You are not suitable to stay in the Northern Han Dynasty for the time being, if your identity is revealed, you will become the target of public criticism, understand?"
"I've got my own measure. β
"Look outside now. β
Nameless opened the window and saw the drunken immortal residence in the distance burning a raging fire by the lake, and felt cold in his heart.
"Luoyang is a dangerous place, as a father, I don't want to see my son hurt but I can't do anything, that will be particularly heartbroken, I advise you to return to Yanguo as soon as possible. β
"I understand. β
ββ
The little red boat rowed back to the riverbank from the middle of the river and left without a name, while Wuzisong continued to drink tea, still waiting for someone.
"Master Wu, are you still waiting for me?"
"Sit down and talk. β
Shen Yan sat down and complained while drinking tea: "Situ Haoran of Dali Temple is really cunning, he found out that there were thieves secretly hiding weapons, so he reported to the saint to receive the merit, and then blamed the aftermath of the murder to Jinyiwei, it's really troublesome!"
"Lord Shen, don't forget, killing people is Jinyiwei's strength, if you don't push it to you, will you let me go?"
"No adult, this is too much, if I hadn't taken care of my nephew just now, would you be able to stage a scene of father-son love and swimming together in the Qingming River?"
Shen Yan's rhetorical question made Wuzisong sneer.
"No adult is not a loss to Honglu Siqing, who can be eloquent and can fool a foreign son, no wonder Phoenix Jinhua was deceived by sweet words back then. β
"Lord Shen, please pay attention to your words and deeds. Although I can't get together with Nameless and can't do without your help, he will stay in the Northern Han Dynasty for a while, so you just keep an eye on him for me, don't let him go wrong. β
"Master Wu, it seems that you are really thinking about a foreign son, I will try my best to help, but if he messes around and dies, don't blame him. β
"You and I both know that it is not advisable for him to stay here for long. β
