Chapter 269
People come and go, and the man in blue is like a grand scene in spring, which makes the night become gentle.
He Yan did not expect that he would meet Chu Zhao here.
His face was gentle and gentle, and his expression was as soft as ever. Compared with years ago, he was thinner and thinner, but there seemed to be something less between his eyebrows and eyes, such as the glittering beads, silent and safe.
He Yan walked two steps to him and then asked, "fourth master of Chu How could it be here? "
After the crown prince committed a crime, the fourth prince ascended the throne. Later, he never heard of Chu Zhao again. I heard that someone had seen him outside the city, and I guess he left shuojing. After emperor Zhaokang succeeded to the throne, he intended to clean up Xu Jingfu's old family, the Chu family. Naturally, he was also in the family under pressure. Over the years, the Chu family has almost declined. Chu Linfeng even dismissed his 19 concubines and lived by his wife's family. As for Chu Zhao, everyone gradually forgot him.
After all, Xu Xiang, it seems to have been a name of a long time ago.
Year after year, the handsome and brave young men in Beijing come out. In the dream of women in the Wei Dynasty, the two brothers of the Xiao family have already married and had children. This fourth childe of Chu, like the orchid, is also like a dream in the wild valley. After a flash in the pan, he disappeared in the river of time.
However, he appeared again at the moment. For a moment, he seemed to return to Jiyang many years ago.
Chu Zhao laughed, he said: "I have been in Jiyang."
He Yan was silent.
If it is in Jiyang, the world can not find his whereabouts, it is excusable. But perhaps, the emperor is not really can not be found, he is here, but better.
Yan Zhaohe didn't say anything to him. Although he was a student of Xu Jingfu, he did not really hurt himself at that time. He Yan knew that Chu Zhao was a man of great scheming and was not as harmless as he appeared to be. However, after many years, love and hatred gradually faded. When they met again here, they were not friends or enemies. They were just Just an old friend.
She noticed that Chu Zhao's side, without the beautiful and charming maid, had already expected something in her heart. After a pause, she asked, "what is the fourth master of Chu doing in Jiyang now?"
"I have a calligraphy and painting museum here, and I still make a living." Chu Zhao replied with a smile, "where's ahe? Why did you come to Jiyang all of a sudden
"When your royal highness is married, my family and I will come to watch the ceremony." Heyan also did not conceal that Mu Xiaolou's marriage was a big event in Jiyang City, which was well known by the people of Jiyang.
"Is governor Xiao here?" He asked.
He Yan nods.
Chu Zhao looked at Heyan with a smile. The woman in front of him was still cheerful. Later, he met many people and many women, but such a frank and vigorous expression only appeared on her face. His eyes fell on the sugar tiger in Heyan's hand. He was stunned and asked softly, "ah he Do you have any children? "
"Yes," He Yan said, "there is a daughter, now nearly four years old, called Xiao Yao."
"…… Xiao Yao
"Isn't that a good name for me?" He Yan complacently said: "I have nothing to ask of her, as long as she is safe and healthy, carefree and willful life, it will be satisfied."
She has no talent in poetry and poetry, only the name "Xiao Yao" is chosen by everyone.
"White clouds are all over the land, so I'm free and easy to walk," Chu Zhao looked at her and said with a smile, "ah he is very good at naming."
Thank you very much He Yan asked with a smile: "the fourth master of Chu, can you have a sweetheart now?"
At that time, Chu Zhao cheated her out at night, and made Xiao Jue angry. She coaxed her for a long time. Now the situation has changed, and many things have already been relieved. Although he is the "fourth master of Chu", in fact, he should only be "Chu Zhao" now.
Because of his interest and position, the fourth childe of Chu would show his sincerity to her. Who is the real Chu Zhao? He is so intelligent and talented that no one wants to like him anyway.
Chu Zhao heard the speech, stupefied for a moment, then lowered his head and laughed, "not everyone is as lucky as governor Xiao."
He Yan was about to speak when suddenly someone's voice came.
"What are you doing here?"
Xiao came and saw her face like a knife in the night.
"Commander Xiao," Chu Zhao was also surprised, and then said with a smile, "long time no see."
At the same time, the fourth aunt in front of the powder stall was trembling with fear. Just then he Yan went to buy a sugar man. After buying, he met a handsome young man. They stood on one side and talked. It was nothing, maybe it was an old acquaintance, but the fourth aunt looked at it and saw that something was wrong. Xiao's second grandmother's expression is straightforward, but the handsome childe's eyes seem to have feelings for Xiao's second grandmother.
But it is not that kind of infatuated love, how to say, it seems to have been deeply loved, but also abandoned lonely feeling.
Four Auntie and two Auntie mix for a long time, admitted to have a good eye. I just hate that there is not a plate of melon seeds now, otherwise she can sit here and knock for a few hours. The handsome young master who was frustrated in love is mostly pitiful. Just as the fourth aunt was thinking about what kind of entanglement they had in the past and how Xiao's second grandmother had taken this young talent, she suddenly felt that there was a shadow around him. When she looked up, she was almost scared out of her wits.Don't know when governor Xiao will arrive!
He stood on his side, calmly looking at the two people in the distance, eyes slightly narrowed.
The fourth aunt swore that she saw the finger of commander Xiao's sword on his waist pale.
Many of the jealous men in Jiyang will fight for their beloved girl. It's nothing, but Looking at the soft and weak childe in Qingyi, I'm afraid he will not be killed by governor Xiao. And second grandmother Xiao I heard that people in the Central Plains attach great importance to women's morality. I don't know if the second grandmother Xiao can afford it.
The fourth aunt wanted to remind her, but she was afraid of the pressure of the people on the side of her body. She finally took two steps back. But seeing Xiao's second grandmother in front of him, he didn't know what to say, and his expression was even more lost.
Then, governor Xiao went up --
the moment he saw Xiao Jue's appearance, he said in his heart that he was very bad. He did not know why. Under such circumstances, he always appeared unexpectedly. At that time, Chu Zhao was deeply resentful of him. After many years, I'm afraid that he would not go anywhere magnanimously.
"I bought sugar man here. I happened to meet the fourth master of Chu and said two words." He Yan euphemistically explained: "only two words, you came."
Xiao Jue only looked at Chu Zhao, his eyes fell on Heyan, and said, "let's go."
Two words, each word is chilly.
He Yan said goodbye to Chu Zhao: "well, fourth childe of Chu, we'll go ahead."
Chu Zhao nodded with a smile and watched him and Yan go away. He didn't take back his eyes until they could no longer be seen in the crowd.
Jiyang's water is still clear, he thought that after so many years, for his old friend, he had been calm, but the moment he saw her, he knew that he had never put it down.
But that's all.
In front of the sugar peddler was crowded with a crowd of people. The young man in green walked in, drooping his eyes and whispering, "brother, I want a flower basket."
……
Xiao Jue walked very fast.
He Yan followed him, a head two big, mouth called: "wait, Xiao Jue, four aunt is still behind..."
"She has gone back."
He Yan:
The fourth aunt was so ungrateful that she threw a gun battle in front of her. She had to do it by herself.
He Yan caught up with Xiao Jue in two or three steps. No matter whether he was happy or not, he took his arm and said, "Xiao Jue..."
"Why don't you continue to reminisce with your fourth master of Chu?" He spoke with sarcasm.
"No reminiscence, just a greeting." He Yan thought that Xiao Jue and Chu Zhao had no bad relationship in his last life. When he met Chu Zhao, he was very excited. There are three defenses in his life: fire prevention and anti-theft.
"No matter how capable I am, I can't predict." He Yan looked at him, "I didn't expect him to be in Jiyang city now. You say, does the emperor know about this? "
Xiao Jue hissed: "already knew."
Although he had already guessed a little, he Yan still felt a little sad when Xiao Jue said that Chu Zhao could not go out again since he had entered Jiyang city. He spent the rest of his life as if he had been imprisoned here, but For him, it may not be a good ending.
Seeing her face, Xiao Jue sneered: "you are worried about him."
When he came again, he Yan was helpless and said: "elder brother, how many years have it been? Why are you still so worried about it. I miss you all the time. You see, "she put the sugar tiger to his mouth." I bought you a candy man at a high price. I'll give it to you as an apology -- "
Xiao Jue flicked her hand away, and she laughed angrily at her insincerity and said," are you even willing to cheat now? "
"Who lied to you? Do you want me to stand on the roof and shout, I, he Yan, like commander Xiao best. We have seen the picture together -"
"Heyan --"
He Yan said with a smile: "you know it in your heart..."
Xiao Jue looked at her for a long time, but finally she was defeated. Anyway, she always had 10000 ways to coax people, although sometimes they were not sincere.
He warned: "forget it this time, Heyan. If you meet him privately again..."
He Yan thought, as if she would often come to Jiyang. Once this time, I don't know when to come here next time.
"However," Xiao Jue glanced at the sugar man in her hand: "I don't accept this apology."
"How do you want to make amends?"
He raised his eyebrows and said nothing, staring directly at her.
He Yan said:
She gritted her teeth and said, "Xiao Jue, you just covet my beauty and covet my body!"
Xiao Jue "um" a, reply of the flow of kindness, "good."
He Yan has nothing to say.
……
It was another night of confusion.The next morning, Xiao Yao wakes up. The sugar tiger has turned into a pool of sugar water in the night. Heyan takes a bare bamboo stick and says seriously in front of Xiao Yao: "old tiger, see? This is a tiger - "
Xiao Yao looks at her in a daze.
Xiao Jue came in from the outside. Seeing that she was teasing Xiao Yao again, Xiao Jue came up and picked him up and said, "it's dinner."
The Cuis' breakfast is as good as ever. After breakfast, Cui Yuezhi will go to the palace to help. The custom of Jiyang city is different from that of Central Plains. The formal wedding ceremony is in the evening.
Xiao Jue took care of the little one, but he did not forget to push his favorite dishes to him. The fourth aunt passed by was stunned for a moment. After dinner, he secretly pulled Heyan aside and hesitated for a long time. Then he asked in a low voice, "second grandmother Xiao, can you teach me something about your husband's skill?"
He Yan almost suspected that he had heard wrong. She asked, "what art do you mean?"
"How to control your husband!" Four aunt some embarrassed mouth: "last night is not my body to leave first, is really Xiao Dudu already came, I body is not easy to disturb, absolutely not do not speak of righteousness intentionally left you alone! But At that time, governor Xiao was not very happy. This morning he looked the same as before. I just want to ask, how did you do it? "
How did she do it? It's about her waist.
He Yan laughed awkwardly: "in fact, I don't have any skills to control my husband..."
"How could it be?" The fourth aunt was anxious, "when you were in the house with Miss Ling, what they said, I still remember it. After all these years, my second grandmother must have improved a lot in her husband's controlling skills. You should teach me something about it, and I'm sure I won't spread it out. "
It's not a secret, isn't it? He Yan didn't expect that he could be cited as a classic even though he made up a lot of things in Cui's house.
However, he Yan was not able to disappoint the fourth aunt's thirst for knowledge, so he began to say: "the skill of controlling husband seems to be controlling, but actually it is releasing. You just It's easy to relax. Sometimes it's cold. Sometimes it's cold. Sometimes it's cold. Sometimes it's hard for a girl to pester her husband. Cough. Maybe if you control it, practice makes perfect. "
"Is there a degree of relaxation?" The fourth aunt murmured.
He Yan patted her shoulder, "you and slowly ponder, I go first." She ran away as if to run, leaving four aunts standing in the same place to feel.
When he came back to the house, Lin Shuanghe was standing at the door. When he saw Heyan, he urged, "sister he, where have you been? We have to go to the palace at once. We'll see her royal highness before the wedding
He Yan was busy.
Quickly cleaned up some, a few people on the carriage, with Cui Yue one of the way to the palace.
Xu is because Mu Xiaolou got married. Today's palace is much more lively than it was in those days. There are lights and decorations everywhere, and the word "Xi" is pasted everywhere. As a result, the palace, which was originally deserted due to its emptiness, has become magnificent.
As soon as he entered the door, his servant met him and said with a smile, "Lord Cui, governor Xiao, Lord he, and Mr. Lin, your highness is already waiting for you."
He Yan several people follow this maid to go inside, wait to walk to the main hall, hear a voice with a smile to spread: "you are coming."
He Yan looked up.
Mu Hongjin came out from behind the hall.
She was dressed in the dress of Jiyang royal family. Today is mu Xiaolou's wedding. Naturally, she should wear red. However, this red color is different from the warm Zhenghong in those years. It has a little dark color. Her face is not as dignified and cold as before, and it is a little softer.
The woman's long braided hair was behind her head, without a crown. She was no longer a queen's daughter, so she only inserted a dark red velvet flower. Her eyebrows were still beautiful, but she looked at them carefully. There were still stars and white flowers in the braids. She was old and more gentle. Looking at them, she looked at their eyes, like seeing old friends who had never met again for a long time, with a little joy.
"Your Highness." He Yan several people salute with her.
"It hasn't been as lively as it is today for a long time. I'm very happy that you can come to the wedding of Xiaolou." She said.
Lin Shuanghe said with a smile: "I haven't seen it for many years. Your highness is still as bright as spring and beautiful as before."
Mu Hongjin chuckled, then shook his head, stroked one side of his hair, and sighed: "old, what is the beauty of nature?" Her eyes were attracted by Xiao Yao in Xiao Jue's arms and said in a low voice: "is this the daughter of Xiao Dudu? How old are you? "
He Yan said: "Xiao Yao, nearly three years old."
Mu Hongjin reaches out his hand to Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao hesitates for a moment, then reaches out his fat arm, indicating that he can hold it. Mu Hongjin holds her in his arms. Xiao Yao seems to be very close to her. He chuckles and shouts "aunt..." "Bar Ji" and a kiss on Mu Hongjin's face.
He Yan thought that if Liu Buxin and Mu Hongjin were not at odds, they would not be called Mu Hongjin's grandmother, but they would be called "aunts" with different generations.
However, Mu Hongjin didn't care about Xiao Yao's shouting. Instead, he seemed very happy. He took off a precious stone ring from his hand and put it into Xiao Yao's hand. He said, "call me aunt. I should give you some gifts. Do you like this?"Xiao Yao's eyes were shining and he nodded his head. He said, "like it!"
He Yan can't bear to look directly at him. To say that Xiao Yao is the apple of her eye in the Xiao family, she eats and drinks as much as she does on weekdays. How can she be such a money fan? It's embarrassing.
Mu Hongjin, holding Xiao Yao in his arms, was talking to them. Shortly afterwards, another bodyguard came and said, "Your Highness, the people of the Qin family are coming."
He Yan saw that the bodyguard was familiar, so he couldn't help looking at it more. Cui Yue said with a smile, "second grandma Xiao, do you still know Muyi?"
Wood planation? He Yan remembered that in the first World War of Jiyang, she fought side by side with a city army named Muyi. When she left, the young man also gave her a wooden painting, which is now well preserved by her. However, Mu Yi in front of him is quite different from that of that year. His green and childishness have all faded away. Now he looks like a mature man.
However, after Mu Yi saw Heyan, his maturity and steadiness quickly dissipated, and he became hesitant and excited. He seemed to want to see and dare not to see it. He was inexplicably shy.
Cui Yuezhi said: "Muyi is now the personal bodyguard commander of the Royal Highness in the palace, but he is not a hairy boy in those days. Muyi, do you still remember the second grandmother Xiao, who was he girl in those years? "
Wood Yi scratched his head and whispered, "remember."
Xiao Jue looked at them coldly. Lin Shuanghe coughed and coughed a few times. He quickly turned the corner of the story. He didn't let the young Guard commander bump into Xiao er's scales. He only pretended to be strange: "what about your highness? We have been here for such a long time, but we haven't seen your highness. In those days, my highness was not as high as my chest. I don't know how much higher he is now? "
Mu Hongjin said with a smile: "you go to have a look, why hasn't the small building come over?"
Just then, a woman's voice came from behind the hall: "grandmother, what's the hurry? I'm not here?"
The girl who came out from behind was dressed like a fire. The wedding dress made of the best embroidered women in Jiyang city was decorated with fringed Tassels and bells. When she walked along, her skirt was very long, like a blooming flower. What is more gorgeous than the wedding dress is the girl's face. Her face is white and small set off by the golden crown. She is very similar to Mu Hongjin. The tail of her eyes is painted with flying red, delicate and eye-catching, but it is a little more wanton and lively than Mu Hongjin.
At first glance, it is a girl who grew up savagely in Jiyang city.
She saw he Yan and his party at one glance, and a trace of joy flashed in her eyes. She had to make a haughty gesture and pretended to be indifferent. "You are here."
"I haven't seen you for many years. My highness has grown into a big girl." Lin Shuanghe looked at it and felt a little relieved to be a father. But suddenly, he sighed: "I didn't expect that my highness is married. I'm still alone."
Mu Hongjin laughed: "if you feel lonely, you'd better stay in Jiyang city for a long time. There are many good girls in the city. You can't tell. You met him by fate."
"Fate can't be forced to come." "Lin Shuanghe fan," and I will not be here, I am lucky to get my life, God has its own arrangements, why rush for a moment. "
Mu Hongjin said: "Mr. Lin is open-minded."
There is not much time to reminisce about the past. The wedding ceremony of the royal family in Jiyang is complicated and complicated. The people of Qin family are coming soon. Mu Hongjin and Mu Xiaolou go to the ceremony platform outside. He Yan and his servant's arrangement to rest first.
In the evening, when it was dark, the lanterns in the palace lit up one by one. Near the original open platform, the long steps were covered with red silk. The lights reflected the magnificence and solemnity of the high platform, surrounded by ritual officials. A couple of Bi people supported each other and walked up to the high platform.
He Yan saw the eldest son of Qin. He was a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Even though he was wearing happy clothes, he looked very brave. However, he will also carefully help Mu Xiaolou tidy up the long skirt, looking at Mu Xiaolou's eyes, full of sincere love.
Since then, there will be a couple more in the world. They will become the guardians of Jiyang City, guarding the soil and water, and the common people.
He Yan can't help but look at Mu Hongjin.
The woman with deep and gorgeous eyebrows looked at the young men and women on the stage with a smile. The corners of her mouth were clearly smiling, but there were tears in her eyes.
Perhaps, when she put on this costume, she was full of helplessness and anger at the fate of the wrong, but now, Mu Xiaolou is on the steps, at least for this moment, Mu Xiaolou is happy, she is really in love with the man in front of her.
To witness the birth of happiness is a happy thing in itself. Her regret and unwillingness in the past seems to have reached the perfection through Mu Xiaolou in front of her.
He Yan quietly clenched Xiao Jue's hand, Xiao Jue raised his eyes, and his lips slightly tilted.
Lin Shuanghe is very fond of excitement. He is more happy to see other people get married than himself. With the ceremony of Zhengli, he looks for people to drink and drink. However, the amount of wine is not good. After a few more drinks, he is drunk and yells at the injustice of God. He is so handsome and unrestrained that he is still lonely, which is very hateful.
He Yan was speechless for a while. When he was drunk and in a mess, he asked the servants of Cui's house to help him and send him back to Cui's house.There was a lot of cheering on all sides, and Heyan had a few drinks with people he knew. Her drinking capacity is better than that when she was in liangzhouwei. Although she was not as good as general Feihong in her previous life, she would not have been able to give people an endorsement after drinking a cup. However, after all, Xiao Yao was still there, and Heyan did not dare to drink more. However, Xiao Jue was repeatedly toasted by people, and his divine feelings remained unchanged. She was really intoxicated.
Xiao Yao is very young. When the hour comes, he is sleepy, like a chicken pecking at rice. He Yan looks out, the night is deep, so he explains the situation with Mu Hongjin and takes Xiao Yao back.
Mu Hongjin likes Xiao Yao very much. He gently touches Xiao Yao's head and says, "go back."
He Yan thought about it, and finally said with a smile: "your highness and Mr. Qin have already made a great deal of each other now, and the mandarin duck is Bihe. Your highness, please take care of yourself."
Mu Hongjin also drank a lot, his face a little tipsy, smell speech to laugh: "good."
After they left, Mu Hongjin took the wine cup and went to the window of the palace. Outside the window, the willows swayed slightly with the wind. It seemed that the spring days of many years ago had returned. It was like a young man in white came and approached step by step. The sound of the piano was clear and the sword was natural and unrestrained.
In the bustling hall, the noisy music seems to be fading away. This should be a rare dream. Mu Hongjin finds a comfortable position, leans his head on a soft cloth pillow and slowly closes his eyes.
A piece of white wrist exposed in the wide sleeve, wearing a rough silver bracelet, the bracelet edge engraved with small wild daisies, layer by layer, gorgeous.
A maid crept up to see the woman sleeping with her eyes closed and her lips smiling. She seemed to have a dream. So she gave a "hush" and told her descendants: "Your Highness is asleep. Don't disturb her." Cover her with a thin blanket, and leave quietly.
……
Outside, he Yan and Xiao Jue go to the end of the carriage.
There seems to be no autumn or winter in Jiyang city. It's always like summer. The river wind brings cool and cool feeling. Heyan and Xiao Jue walk side by side. Xiao Yao lies on Xiao Jue's shoulder, breathing steadily and sleeping soundly.
It seems that you can hear the sound of singing and laughing in the palace.
She lowered her head and was more peaceful than ever before.
What she once thought was extravagant and could not have now is all around her. What she originally asked for was not much, but it was just plain.
This life carefree days stop asking, all things flow East in ancient times.
Nothing can compare with this moment, free and carefree.
Xu is dreaming of something delicious. Xiao Yao in his sleep smacks his lips.
He Yan looked at her for a moment and asked with a smile, "Xiao Jue, do you want to eat sugar gourd?"
