Chapter 185: Lonely and worry-free
Small courtyard, front hall and back room wing room opposite, the front yard is several zhang square, the road is surrounded by two small flower beds, the back of the courtyard is slightly narrow, the spring breeze of the big tree on the wall blows the leaves of the green and yellow, just cover the scenery in the garden, faintly hear the sound of prosperity outside the wall, without losing the meaning of quiet in the noisy.

The two living rooms in the back of the three Ming Hall, Gao Yuan let them idle, and used the half-room in the corner of the backyard as a bedroom, which was supposed to be the residence of the guard and miscellaneous servants, and when the housekeeper blocked it, he said that it was for the convenience of practicing martial arts, although the miscellaneous maid felt strange, the master insisted on moving in, so he could only clean it up.
The deputy commander of the former battalion of the Praetorian Guard, a prominent position, did not need to be on duty after reporting for duty, and had the will to transfer Gao Yuan into the palace to accompany the king to escort him, and the deputy envoy was just a false title. The old king looked at the court for seven days, Gao Yuan went to Meilin early to pick up, escorted the king to the Qinzheng Palace, and then waited outside, and then returned to Meilin after the court meeting, and the task was completed on the same day.
"The pilgrimage usually ends before noon, so why do you only go home every night?"
Inquiring about the affairs of the palace, there is a suspicion of spying on the whereabouts of the king, it is a taboo for people and ministers, as the daughter of the prince and the lord of the empire Qinghui, Dugu Ying will not make this mistake, but she really can't help the curiosity in her heart, she broke the military captain, and took half a day off for six days, even if she was not allowed to hold the power of the guards because of her, and the royal family should not be so casual.
"I'm idle left and right, and I take the opportunity to ask for martial arts. Before the lie was finished, his face turned red, and Gao Yuan knew that he couldn't deceive him, so he simply blocked the words in advance: "Believe it or not." β
"Hmph, broken military captain, don't you feel ashamed of the emperor's grace, are you panicking?"
"It is an officer's duty to obey orders. β
Yan Ning couldn't help but smile beside him, Hua Yue also smiled, obeyed the order, seven days on duty for half a day, there were still no more tasks than him, Dugu Ying laughed at the corner of his mouth.
"The county lord ordered you to go to the right guard and help Captain Lei train his troops. β
"The Praetorian Guard officers are under the orders of His Majesty the King. β
Dugu Ying smashed the book over with his hand: "Pick it up, do you want Your Majesty to wait for an order before bending down?" Gao Yuan picked up the book with a wry smile, put it on the table but didn't talk, when they were free, the three of them changed their methods to make things difficult, saying that it was to exercise his coping words, and it was often difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and a trip to the county lord's mansion was more tiring than three days of cultivation.
"The former camp competition, Your Majesty gave you steel claws, don't take it as a reward, hum, the enemy is controlled by others in battle, and you want to fight with your life to defeat and win, and you can learn martial arts in the camp, how can you go into battle to kill the enemy, how can you deliberately cause people to be disabled! Your Majesty is warning and sarcastic that you are not good at martial arts, and Li Haofan is the same, Tie Jia, that is to ridicule him, and he wants to plot against people to protect himself first. β
After a lesson, Hua Yue waved his hand to drive people away: "If you don't have to worry about official business, practice diligently, don't keep thinking about good things, you can't beat me in one day, get married, you dream." β
"The flesh and blood are condensed, the mind is not opened, and the essence of heaven and earth is not connected to the mother's womb, and those who become into their forms have ...... eternal qi."
β...... Away from the fireworks and living alone in the mountains, seeking the mysteries of heaven and earth, without the troubles of the world, less entanglement of lust, light and healthy, longevity and longevity, and those who have been reborn and entered the Tao to become holy are rare. β
There are no beds or tables in the dwelling, and they sit on the floor.
Practice boxing in the morning and practice the knife in the evening, there are guests to socialize at noon, meditate and refine qi when there is nothing to do, in the dead of night, sometimes looking up at the sky and silently reciting the scriptures, sometimes sitting cross-legged on the ground and meditating, Hua Yue can see if he is here, Gao Yuan's cultivation is not all the mental martial arts of the Remnant Soldier Academy.
As the sky grew brighter, Gao Yuan got up and picked up a broom, and when the handymen came, the ground in the backyard was clean, and Gao Yuan was practicing his fists and feet beside the big tree.
"Captainβ"
"You take care of the front yard, don't worry about it here, I get up and lie down impermanently, don't bother me if I have nothing to do. β
Hua Qin Erfu to the military rule of law, miscellaneous servants and maids all have to practice fists and feet weapons, the first time to come to the courtyard unsupervised unconsciously become lazy, Gao Yuan is lazy, Yan Ning noticed and told Hua Yue, the whip and the military stick were beaten, and no one dared to be lazy after changing the general manager, and saw Gao Yuan practicing boxing and sword practice rain or shine, and the small courtyard seemed to have become a martial arts hall.
The chef asked for instructions on the recipe for three meals a day, Gao Yuan only said that there was meat and vegetables to be full, and he was not allowed to prepare it alone, two tables of rice, one table for men and women, and everyone ate together, so the food of the next person was better than in the public mansion, and the chores were not as much as half of the original, and the general manager wanted to reduce some monthly money, Gao Yuan naturally did not allow it, so that the hearts of the people gradually shifted from the public mansion to the small courtyard.
"Captain, there is a visitor. Gao Yuan came out, and the chief manager hurriedly handed over the name post, and explained in a low voice: "Dugu is worry-free, he has no official title and fame, but he is the think tank of the British Palace. β
Gao Yuan looked at the name post again, there was no title, just write four words, lonely and worry-free, the font is neat as printed on paper, I can't see the slightest publicity, and there is another kind of self-confidence.
"Mr. Dugu, please. β
"Captain, do you want to change your clothes before greeting you?"
Gao Yuan looked at the student uniform he was wearing, Mei Ying said not to wear it after a few times, he always felt that it was a pity to throw it away, and it was not too late to change to the regular clothes sewn by Yan Ning when it was worn out.
"You go to greet the guests, and I'll cover a robe outside. β
Dugu Wuwu squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at the small courtyard with a smile.
The location is a little remote but does not lose the meaning of quietness in the middle of the noise, the captain is not a petty officer, it is said that a plaque should be hung and a lantern should be hung, but the owner ignores it. No, even if the owner doesn't pay attention, the handyman will tear up the previous Spring Festival couplets when he moves, hehe, orphans and soldiers, Gao Yuan is deliberately retaining the feeling of home.
"Sir, my school captain is late to change clothes, please come into the house and have tea in the guest hall. β
Behind Dugu Wuwu, four guards led the horse, seeing that the Gao family only had the chief manager to welcome guests, he couldn't help but look angry, in Kyoto, even if it was the Liehou Mansion, Mr. Dugu came to the door, and the Hou masters greeted him personally, and a school captain's mansion dared to treat guests so slowly.
"There's a housekeeper. β
Dugu said thank you without worry, as if he knew the guard's thoughts, he glanced back before he took a step, the four of them hurriedly lowered their heads to hide their anger, and the housekeeper turned a blind eye: The palace guards? What's the big deal, Lao Tzu was wearing the rank of inspector before he was disabled, and the captain should go out to greet him, and it doesn't matter much if he doesn't come, the Qin Mansion and the Ying Wangfu are not very dealing.
"The rivers and lakes are reckless, I don't know how many catties and taels I have, I am used to fighting the power of the palace, and I will be severely punished when I go back without worry, and the housekeeper will be angry. Dugu Wuwu handed over the scroll in his hand as he spoke, but the housekeeper excused himself: "The captain has an order not to accept heavy gifts." β
"Carefree, unofficial, powerless and not good at business, the first time you come to the door and you can't come empty-handed, a few words on a piece of paper to show respect. β
"It's too late, sir. The housekeeper was embarrassed, and Gao Yuan strode to the courtyard: "Mr. is famous in Kyoto, and it is difficult to find Mobao's daughter, but he is ashamed to accept it." Taking the scroll with both hands, Gao Yuan handed it to the butler: "Quickly lead the person to hang in a conspicuous place in the main room." β
The three Ming halls are divided into two living rooms, one large and one small, Gao Yuan invited Dugu to the small living room, and the two politely sat down with the guests, and the maid had already served tea.
"The lone army is deep, the elite cavalry is rampant, the captain of the First World War of the Prairie is powerful in the Three Kingdoms, and the British king is highly respected, and he admires from the bottom of his heart. β
"Sir, elderly, please call Gao Yuan's name, if you are commensurate with your official position, how can you not see each other. β
Dugu Wuwu clapped his hands when he heard this: "Worry-free will dare to call you brother, you don't have a mouthful of a gentleman, if you don't dislike calling brother." Between brothers, why beat around the bush, I have something to say. β
Sanhewan, gently forced Gao Yuan to put Dugu Ying under house arrest, the student soldiers had no choice but to take risks, and cut off the reinforcements of Fengyun City, the victory of the grassland war was not without luck, after the war, I learned that the plan came from Dugu worry-free, Gao Yuan was wary of the think tank of the British Palace, he took the initiative to come to the door today, and it looked like a weak scholar, and he was trying to test the truth.
"In the battle of the grassland, there are many constraints in the British Palace, hehe, my brother should not be resentful. Dugu Wuwu stared at Gao Yuan's eyes, and without waiting for him to answer, he continued: "The Manchu Dynasty knows that the prince and the British king have different political views, but the military soldiers go to war is related to the national prestige, and the two of them both hope to win, how can the British palace plot to trap tens of thousands of students in danger." β
"The tribe first descended to build a city, the reinforcements turned around and went north at the critical moment, and the king of Xiangyun closed off the military situation, if there is no heavenly help, he is still guarding the ancient village today, how can the old brother teach me about this?"
"Brother, let me ask you one thing, hehe, because the sunset stole my crossbow secret map, there are elite soldiers gathered in the northwest border, now that the dust of the war has settled, why don't you mention the culprit of stealing the crossbow machine map?"
Gao Yuan couldn't answer, Dugu Wuwu picked up the teacup and looked outside the living room, Gao Yuan called into the housekeeper, and instructed him that no one should approach the small living room, and he even used his luck to probe from time to time.
"Before the war, the empire suddenly put dozens of battalions of elite troops on both sides of Xiangyun County, saying that it was to prevent the sunset regular army from interfering in the trial, hehe, when it was the most difficult time for the soldiers to defend the city, why did they quietly retreat, who are they guarding against?"
Gao Yuan lost a smile on his face, and replied in a low voice: "King Xiangyun! But I still don't understand, the battle was caused by Qin Rufeng by accident, and if the empire wants to take the opportunity to solve King Xiangyun, it seems that there is no certainty of victory." β
"I can't figure it out, that's why I came to the door to ask for advice, hehe, my brother shouldn't think: The King of England has the authority to mobilize a million troops. Dugu took a sip of tea and chuckled smugly: "So the county lord should not only not be angry with the British king, but also thank Uncle Wang for saving her and tens of thousands of students." β
If the empire suddenly starts a war with the king of Xiangyun County, the back road of the grassland soldiers will inevitably be cut off, and even the standard camp and child camp in Xiangyun County are difficult to preserve.
Dugu's worry-free words are up to the point, I believe that it will reach the ears of the county lord of Qinghui, it is impossible for the two parties to turn enemies into friends, but they will no longer let others pick up the cheap, if they can't distinguish the benefits, the county lord of Qinghui is not worthy of being the opponent of the king.
Putting down the teacup, Dugu got up and said goodbye without worry: "Brother, the tea leaves for hospitality are really not good, don't blush, I can see that you usually don't drink tea, you don't mean to treat my brother slowly, hehe, sell a few pairs of calligraphy and paintings another day, and our brothers also taste the newly picked spring tea." β
Sending away Dugu worry-free, Gao Yuan looked at the banner hanging in the living room for a long time - the two words of breaking the army, the dragon flying and the phoenix dance, seemed to be about to leave the paper, and the two small words were signed: worry-free, worry-free breaking the army, and the British King's Mansion is passing on goodwill.
"Captain, hang his words, and the son and the young lady will lose their temper. β
The housekeeper thought for a long time and walked in and told Takagaki something.
Dugu Wuwu disdains to participate in the imperial civil official selection, he has no official position, he used to be poor in Kyoto, it is not that he has no ability to make money, on the contrary, it is easy for him to make a fortune. I have seen Dugu's worry-free calligraphy, and everyone who has been famous for a long time has given a very high evaluation.
"Then why are you still poor?"
The dignitaries and dignitaries came to the door with a lot of money, and Dugu was carefree and excused, saying that reading and writing was for the sake of etiquette, and it was insulting to exchange it for money. Qin Guogong once sent someone to ask for words, Dugu Wuwu still gave face, accepted the silver taels of the pen, wrote a few words on the spot, rolled them up and handed them to the comer.
"Go back and open it, eight words: Guogong asks for words, worry-free respect, so angry that the old Guogong scolded for several days, but no wonder people, the cashier writes, and he doesn't say what he has to write. β
Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing, secretly admiring Dugu for his worry-free backbone, and the housekeeper smiled embarrassedly: "I went to ask for words, I didn't expect him to be so bad, but fortunately, the old country scolded and scolded, and the words were still pasted by a good worker, and they couldn't be hung, so they had to hide them." The captain hung his words, and the old man definitely didn't feel good in his heart, he wouldn't say you, and Bao Zhun wanted to scold the son. β
"Senior brother is here, just scold it, you have to be optimistic, don't let it be taken off and torn up. β
As the housekeeper expected, Hua Yue and Qin Rufeng lost their temper, Gao Yuan said all the good things, the two of them didn't make a move, and they were a little embarrassed to order before leaving, if you want to hang up, you have to ask for a few more pictures, otherwise no one will show off.
Gao Yuan bowed back hard, said that after Dugu Wuwu didn't say a word, picked up a few framed words and gave them to him, Gao Yuan opened it under the pretext of appreciation, and then asked to go back to ask for words and other scrolls, not to let Hua Yue pick up the skin, fortunately this time there was no trouble, after seeing Gao Yuan's heart, Dugu Ying, Hua Yue, Yan Ning, Qin Rufeng, one person, Dugu Wu Wu expected that he would come to the door.
"Take the word, you have to exchange some good tea in the palace for my brother, the county lord has a way, hehe, the two brothers will taste it slowly. β
Gao Yuan naturally did not come to the door empty-handed, and took out a book at parting, which was the tattered cheats that Hu Li threw down back then, Dugu took it and swept it into his arms after a few glances, and there was a light in his triangular eyes, and he didn't care about the content, so he collected it as a precious copybook.
