Shuzhou, the land of abundance, thousands of miles of fertile wilderness.

There is an old saying called "less does not enter Shu, old does not come out of Shu", which can be seen.

The capital of Shuzhou, Jincheng, the city of splendor, the name of Mrs. Lanyu Tang Jinxiu comes from this. Today's Jincheng is particularly lively, maybe ordinary people can't feel it, but the well-informed wealthy lords in the city are moved by the wind, especially the first wealthy valve Tang in Shuzhou, which is even more colorful, and puts on a posture of opening the middle door to welcome distinguished guests.

The reason is very simple, this time Shuzhou came to several very important people, first of all, Lu Xinlian, the great man of the Daomen, and then Zhao Qing, the head of the soldiers and horses in the north who was in charge of the power of the soldiers and horses in the north in the previous dynasty, as well as the Confucian Mr. Qian Muzhai, and the two aunts and grandmothers Tang Shengyue and Tang Banyan Tree, who have lived in Jiangdu for a long time, have also returned to Jincheng one after another recently, plus Tang Jinxiu, the wife of the Taishi who has lived in Jincheng for many years, can be called a full house of guests.

Of course, the heaviest of them is the waist of the small pavilion of the general seal of the old Xu Beiyou, after the two battles, Xu Beiyou's reputation has been greatly boosted, in the court, has gradually gotten rid of Han Xuan's wings, known as the pillar of the country that supports the southeast half of the wall, there is a blue out of the blue and better than the blue posture.

Of course, a more important point, anyone with a discerning eye can see that after Emperor Taizongwen and Emperor Gao Zongsu died one after another, Emperor Gao Zongsu had no heirs, and the only way to inherit the treasure was to choose from the princes and heirs of the side branches, and then look at the three princes except the King of Qi, the King of Wei has rebelled, the King of Zhao has died, and the King of Yan has been deposed, and no one can inherit the unification, seeing that Her Royal Highness the Princess has the power, if it were not for the continuous war at this time, maybe he would have to follow the example of the empress back then, Xu Xiaoge was the third emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty, and this weight was even greater than the first two emperors-in-law。

So many big people gathered together, whether it is the inside or the face, there is, as the landlord of the Tang family is naturally happy, now the head of the Tang family is Tang Shengyue's cousin Tang Shengyun, he personally invited and Qian Muzhai and called "Qian Liu" Confucian Mr. Liu Zhengqing to accompany him, after a big banquet, the guests and hosts were happy.

When the feast was dispersed, it was already late at night, the Tang Mansion was still full of lights, Xu Beiyou avoided the heavy lights, and came to a quiet water pavilion in the back house of the Tang Mansion alone, looking at the railing, the overhead was a brilliant galaxy, and the night of the sky steps was as cool as water, which reminded him of a poem, the silver candle autumn light cold painting screen, and the light Luo small fan fluttering fireflies. I remember that there were five maids by Xiao Zhinan's side, namely Silver Candle, Autumn Light, Painting Screen, Qingluo, and Liuying, and the names of the five were taken from this poem, but since he and Xiao Zhinan got married, he rarely saw these five maids again, and he didn't know where he was sent by Xiao Zhinan, in short, he rarely appeared in his sight, could it be that his smart lady was afraid that his rabbit would steal the grass by the nest?

Xu Beiyou laughed at herself, Zhinan shouldn't be so stingy, she didn't say anything to Wu Yu, there was no reason to be strict with the people around her.

Not long after, another person walked in, sat on a stone bench not far from Xu Beiyou, and didn't speak, just threw Xu Beiyou a thin envelope.

Xu Beiyou took the belief, and printed the word "south" with an ancient seal with fire paint, and knew in his heart that he really wanted to come with something.

The person who came was Tang Shengyue, one of the owners of this Tang Mansion, and she said softly: "This is sent from the imperial capital, but it was sent to Jiangdu, before I left for Shuzhou, Zhang Xueyao specially entrusted me to transfer it to you on my behalf." ”

Xu Beiyou snorted, peeled off the fire paint on the envelope with his fingernails, and said softly: "The beacon has been burning for three months, and the family letter is worth 10,000 gold, and there is Aunt Lao Tang." ”

Tang Shengyue shook her head, "It's a gesture." ”

Xu Beiyou opened the envelope, took out three letterheads full of dense hairpins, and at first glance, the beginning was the word "Yufujun", and he couldn't help but smile.

Generally speaking, for brothers and relatives of the same generation, use the word "to", and use the word "edict" for the younger generations of sons, only for parents and teachers, will use a "yu" word, as for the husband and wife, most of them should be a "and" word, Xiao Zhinan deliberately used a "yu" word, but it was a little ridiculous.

Xu Beiyou looked down, "My husband has returned to the south, and you have been fine recently?"

Seeing the word "unharmed", he couldn't help but think of the small square village back then, the two old people in the small square village back then, one old man is still there, and the other old man is no longer there.

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to raise but does not wait.

Xu Beiyou raised the letter in his hand and didn't read it for a long time.

Tang Shengyue suddenly said: "There is another letter, it is Wu Yu's, do you want to read it?"

Xu Beiyou raised his head and was speechless.

Tang Shengyue took out a letter from his sleeve, did not rush to hand it to Xu Beiyou, and said softly: "Before you answer, I have a few words to say, men, three wives and four concubines are common, in terms of your status and status, even if a few women are nothing, but one thing, you have to understand that Xiao Zhinan's identity is unusual, and Wu Yu is not the kind of person who is willing to be subordinate." ”

Xu Beiyou frowned slightly, "What does Aunt Tang want to say?"

Tang Shengyue said slowly: "Life is unsatisfactory, nine times out of ten, some things, often want to have the best of both worlds, usually it is a fish and a bear's paw, you always have to choose one of the two." ”

Xu Beiyou did not speak.

Tang Shengyue said softly: "There are many men in the world, but there are only a few excellent men, which will naturally attract many women to like them, Xiao Yu back then was one, Lin Yinping liked it, Qin Mumian also liked it, I am not afraid of your jokes, I have also moved some thoughts that should not be there, but I don't dare to do it like the two of them." ”

After Xu Beiyou was silent for a moment, he looked down at the letterhead in his hand again, and began to read the letter carefully, with a shallow smile gradually appearing on his face.

Tang Shengyue saw the scene in front of her, and her face showed a look of remembrance and remembrance.

That year, Xiao Yu had just won the seal of the country from the hands of the Zhao family in Zhongzhou, but at this time it was also his loneliest time, his biological mother died, his wife Lin Yinping was seriously ill, his half-brother Xiao Jin was secretly in trouble, and his biological father Xiao Lie was reunited with his mother Yan Keqing and his half-sister Xiao Ru's family at this time.

In front of the broken Zhao family's mansion, there was no voice, no thunder, only the sound of wind and rain, leaving Xiao Yu alone and staying in place, really a little lonely.

Tang Shengyue didn't know what he was thinking at that time, but he remembered that Xiao Yu coughed lightly a few times, and after spitting out the bruise that had been smothering his chest, he fell into the rain.

Tang Shengyue remembered what he looked like at that time, sitting in the rain with the jade seal in his arms and stunned, I don't know what he remembered, the smile on his face was very peaceful, there was no coldness, there was no falsehood, it was a smile from the heart.

At that time, she only thought she was curious, this heroic man would also have such a side?

Now that she thinks about it, the Xu Beiyou in front of her is actually very similar to Xiao Yu at that time.
