Chapter XII

On the second day, the news of the gentleman's defeat by an unknown teenager spread to every corner of Chang'an like a flying wind, and also reached everyone's ears, so that the rumors of Zhangfu a few days ago were also self-defeating, no one was interested in Zhangfu, but was very interested in this boy, and Zhangfu always seemed to be on the cusp of focus.

"I have seen the young man, who has made clothes with me. "A little second in a tailor's shop is there to show off to everyone.

"That's the noodles that the boy ate here with this bowl. The noodle seller narrowed his eyes and said to the crowd with his large porcelain bowl.

......

"Senior brother, you have become a celebrity in Chang'an. Xu Sanjin, who had just come back from outside, said, his face couldn't stop the color of excitement, as if people were talking about him.

"Senior brother, why do you care about those false names? You have forgotten the purpose of our coming to Chang'an?"

"Ahem. Xu Sanjin coughed awkwardly, junior brother is always like this. "Senior brother is happy for you, you have won glory for everyone. “

"Really?" Ouyang Wuji said lightly, as if these things had not happened.

"I'm going to see my sister. Xu Sanjin hurriedly said and left as if he was running away.

"Senior brother, I have time to read more chess games. Ouyang Wuji said with a smile.

"Got it, senior brother did his best. Xu Sanjin responded.

Ouyang Wuji looked at Xu Sanjin and silently sighed in his heart, for the first time, he questioned his master and senior brother, maybe his senior brother shouldn't learn to play chess, let alone come to Chang'an, he knows Xu Sanjin too well. He thought about himself again, after the chess game, should he go or stay?

The early spring season has passed, and the garden is full of life, with willow trees, green leaves, and flowing water calling people not to miss the spring day.

"Mr. Xu. Xu Sanjin was exercising in the mansion, and suddenly heard someone call him, it turned out to be the doorman of the Zhang Mansion.

"Ah Weng, what's the matter?" Xu Sanjin asked politely, he has always respected the elderly.

"Someone is looking for you at the door. ”

"Looking for me?" Xu Sanjin was very puzzled, he came out of Chang'an in Chang'an, and he didn't make any friends with any powerful people, who would look for him?

With this doubt, Xu Sanjin saw a little guy at the door who had never met.

He was just about to speak, but the little guy said, "You are Mr. Xu Sanjin, right?"

"I am, you are. Xu Sanjin hesitated.

"Someone asked me to pass this on to you. The little guy said, this is a letter, and a piece of snowflake silver.

Xu Sanjin took these, but he didn't know what to do.

"When the three Jin brothers first came to Chang'an, they made friends?" spoke a strong man.

"It turned out to be Zhang Shilang, I haven't seen you for a long time, when did you come back. Xu Sanjin came back to his senses and saw that it was Zhang He, and said with a smile.

"Early this morning, don't call Zhang Shilang Shilang, Shengfen, just call me Zhang He, I just finished dealing with things a few days ago, and I came back quickly, but I was here to watch the three catties of brothers play chess!"

"Haha, Brother Zhang, I'm really joking, I know that little bit of ink. He looked at Ouyang Wuji's room. "I'm just reading with my husband. “

"Haha, the three-pound brothers are really interesting. Zhang He snorted. "I just came back and didn't see my father, so I took my leave. “

"Brother Zhang, please. Xu Sanjin said. Nor did he want to talk, because he was anxious to know who had given him the letter, who had given him the silver, and as the saying goes, he would not be rewarded for nothing, let alone someone he had never met.

"Brother Xian, yesterday under the tree, can Brother Xian still remember? This is ten taels of silver, please don't excuse the brother, if you don't bother with the foolish brother, can you talk about Du Fu Teahouse in the afternoon?

Willow Spring Breeze"

The letter was very short, but Xu Sanjin looked at it very carefully, and he was very happy, although he didn't want to reciprocate the grace, but he earned seven taels in one day, how could he not be happy. "Du Fu Teahouse," he muttered.

Chang'an, outside the palace.

The ministers waited outside the palace.

"Today, the emperor's dragon body is not safe, there is something to play, and it will be played again tomorrow. Retreat from the Dynasty"

"Why don't you go to the early court?"

"This is the third time"

"How can the war report on this side be played again tomorrow!"

......

The ministers left in twos and threes.

"Grandpa Li?"

"Yo, isn't this Master Sun?"

"Grandpa Li, I heard that your family is looking at the house. “

"Master Sun's ears are so good, I can't hide anything from you. “

"Where, where, I overheard, father-in-law, can you speak further. Sun Mou stepped forward and said.

"This house is in the east, the yard is not big, but fortunately, the environment is elegant, I think my father-in-law's family lives in the verified, this is the title deed..."

"It can't be done. I can't help it..."Gonggong Li hurriedly pushed back.

"Hey, this is outside, others don't understand my father-in-law, I don't understand yet, father-in-law, you are brightly dressed on the surface, but in fact you are two sleeves and a breeze, or you will not be shy, you are looking at other local officials, three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver. Father-in-law, Sun is not used to seeing it, this is Sun's intention, and he will see him after postponing it. ”

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. It's too much trouble for the teacher. Gonggong Li smiled.

"Where's the word? Sun Mou said with a smile.

"It's okay, let's go back. ”

"Father-in-law, is the emperor seriously ill?" asked Sun Mou cautiously.

"Who knows, sometimes good and sometimes bad, I can't tell. We're quitting. ”

"Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad. Sun Mou repeated in his mouth. Suddenly, he looked up at the sky, the sky was cloudless, it should be a good day, but who knows what will happen in the next moment, Sun Mou smiled.

"Qingqing, this is your last hosta. Sun Huaiyu was patiently waiting for Miao Qingqing to kick the shuttlecock with a delicate brocade box, but Miao Qingqing didn't seem to have the intention of stopping.

"Oh, put it there. Brother Huaiyu, is there anything wrong with you?" Miao Qingqing asked as she kicked.

"Why, can't I look at you if it's okay?" he said as he reached out to scratch her nose.

"Come again, look at the feet!" Miao Qingqing leaned back, flew up with a kick, and went straight to Sun Huaiyu's door.

Sun Huaiyu saw that he didn't hide with a smile, only to see a foot getting closer and closer to him, three feet, two feet, one inch....I saw that suddenly a black shadow crashed into Sun Huaiyu, but he took such a kick firmly, this person was Xu Sanjin.

"Oops. Xu Sanjin squatted down, covered his left cheek, and wailed.

"Hey, are you alright? Miao Qingqing asked.

"How can it be okay? Or I'll drag you to try, I really owe you in my last life, I was in a good mood today, but I was disturbed by you, and I was ruined, and people still have to see people in the afternoon." Xu Sanjin immediately hugged and said.

"Who told you to rush over, people are joking with Brother Huaiyu. Miao Qingqing pouted and said.

"Brother Huaiyu?" Xu Sanjin repeated.

"Hello, my name is Sun Huaiyu, and I am her brother. Sun Huaiyu said with a smile.

"Isn't your brother Zhang He?"

"Isn't it okay to my brother, pig's head. “

"Has your sister always been like this?" Xu Sanjin asked Sun Huaiyu suspiciously.

"Just get used to it"

The two looked at each other and smiled. “

"Hey, what are you talking about?" Miao Qingqing rolled up her sleeves and asked gently.

"Brother Xu, the weather is good today. “

"Yes, that's good. I heard that the willow trees in Chang'an have sprouted. “

"I still need to hear about the germination of willow trees. Miao Qingqing snatched a sentence in a timely manner.

"Brother Xu, where is he from? I don't have a similar accent to people in Beijing. Sun Huaiyu said, they saw Miao Qingqing as air.

"In the lower Dengzhou people's clan, by ...."

"Senior brother, what's so lively?" a sweet voice sounded in Xu Sanjin's ears.

"Senior sister," Xu Sanjin said. "Yes, this is my junior sister. Xu Sanjin introduced to Sun Huaiyu.

"In Xia Sun Huaiyu, dare to ask the girl's name?"

"Song Wen, Yu Jiawen's Wen. Song Wen said generously.

"Good name, good name, Yun Chengzhang said Wen, and the girl herself is as beautiful as a cloud in the sky. Sun Huaiyu praised.

This son laughed, the little sister is just a country person, how can she be in this elegant hall. It was Ouyang Wuji who spoke, and he came from a distance with a smile.

"This is my junior brother, Ouyang Wuji. "This is Qingqing's elder brother, Sun Huaiyu. Xu Sanjin was busy introducing.

"It turned out to be a Wuji brother, disrespectful and disrespectful, Zhangfu defeated Gongsun without regrets, and Gongzi became famous in a battle. Sun Huaiyu took two steps forward to greet him.

"Brother Sun, don't bother us, Brother Sun is the son of the Taishi, and he has the reputation of the first genius in the capital, so it is really not good to go to the meeting. “

I don't know why I think that the two are friends who have been friends for many years, but they are only meeting for the first time, and there is no trace of interest exchange and human relationship.

"It seems like the two of you have known each other for a long time, huh, pretend. Miao Qingqing said dissatisfiedly.

"You see we met so late that it makes people laugh. It's better to be like this, we will become brothers of the opposite sex," Sun Huaiyu smiled slightly.

"Where, where, how can you dare to call Brother Sun brothers, I am afraid that I will make friends with Brother Sun, and I will be said by the scribes of the capital in less than half a day. Mowgli said apologetically.

"I'll see who dares. Sun Huaiyu's voice cooled, and then returned to normal. "Brother Wuji, can you just play chess for Zhang's house?"

"Wuji is just a person who plays chess, and there is no distinction between Zhangfu and Wangfu. Mowgli said.

"Okay, since it's rare for Brother Xian to be a free person, why don't you go to my Sun Mansion for a walk?" Sun Huaiyu said with a smile.

"Ahem, who am I, it turned out to be Sun Shangshu, why didn't Sun Shangshu go to Shangshu's Mansion in the morning but went to the old man's house?" Zhang Wenzheng said on crutches.

"Uncle laughed, I came to deliver something to Qingqing this morning, and when I met Brother Wuji, we talked a few words. It's getting late, and it's time for me to take my leave. Sun Huaiyu didn't mind Zhang Wenzheng's attitude, and walked out in a grand manner.

Zhang Wenzheng looked at Miao Qingqing angrily, this stupid girl, why don't she understand anything, she has been at odds with the Sun family father and son for many years, she can go to the house at the end of three days, hey, it's all to blame back then....

"Mowgli, are you free now?"

"An idler," Mowgli said with a smile.

"Come to my study, I have something to discuss with you. Zhang Wenzheng's words carried an order.

Only Song Wen was left in the courtyard, and as for Xu Sanjin and Miao Qingqing, the two rivals had long since lost sight of where they had gone. Song Wen knew why Ouyang Wuji came out, and she also understood his heart for herself, but her heart was a little panicked, was it the arrival of Sun Huaiyu? Is it Ouyang Wuji's appearance? She didn't know, her heart was very flustered, she felt like a kite in the sky, she couldn't control her own thoughts, and fate.

Is it up to me to die, or is it up to me?" she remembered the question that the master had asked her before he left the valley.

West.

West Gate ten miles is a cemetery, here graves are everywhere, people at night few people rush here to spend the night, only the daytime pedestrians pass by, but also in a hurry, do not want to stay here for a while, afraid of the slightest bit of bad luck, but is such a place, if it is not Qingming, the day of the sacrifice, no one will come at all, but there is indeed a person who stood in front of a person's tomb for several hours, when leaving, only to see the ground written

"The rest of the shadow is in the world, how to live together and die differently. ”
