Chapter 1010: Wrapped in Silver
The Xizhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Gao Jun arrived in the early hours of the morning with the carriage and horses, and they received a letter on the way, saying that Liu Yuru and others were all in the Xizhou Mansion. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Because it was still early, the street where the Xizhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was located was quiet, and there was no one, and no one came out to sweep the thick snow that had been paved on the street.
Lilan helped her parents down, looked up at the tall mansion, and felt a strange and intimate feeling in her heart.
It was the first time she had come here, and there were eight ladies in the gate, and they couldn't guess their attitudes. And this place belongs to Gao Jun, which makes her feel a little confident when she steps in.
The guards at the gate rushed in to deliver the message, reporting inside layer by layer. Gao Jun puffed his chest and didn't go inside, as if he was waiting for the people inside to run out to greet him. But after waiting for a while, no one came out. Lilan was nervous in her heart, and explained to herself that maybe these people hadn't gotten up yet.
She looked at Gao Jun, Gao Jun motioned for everyone to enter the door, and she walked in with her mother. Both gates entered, and except for the guards at the gates, the courtyard was empty, and there was only a string of messenger footprints running in and out of the snow.
At the last door were two of Su Yin's female guards, who bowed down to the Grand Governor, with smiles hidden in the corners of their eyes.
Gao Jun looked inside the door with a weak heart, and there was not a single footprint on the snow, but the windows on both sides had obviously been opened, because the snow on the windows was gone, and they were all pushed down on the windowsill outside.
And the snow on the windowsill has been carried away a lot.
The messenger who came in from outside just stood here and replied, and of course everything could be heard inside, but the door to the back house was hidden from the door, and it was obvious that no one had ever come out.
Gao Jun said to Lilan, "You guys go in first, I still have some business," and then flashed behind the door, listening to the movement inside.
The two female guards were inconvenient to say anything, and the secret governor was cunning.
Lilan helped her mother and walked in the snow, Liu Yuru and the others heard that people were coming back, and no one came out to greet them, obviously still angry. I don't know how sad it will be after a while.
But since she had returned from Shaya City, it would have to be the first time to enter this door, so she asked the two old men to wait, and she stepped forward and pushed the door open.
Immediately, six or seven white snow balls flew out of it, and they all smashed on Lilan's head and body without a head or face.
The crumbs fell to the ground, and she stood in the doorway in astonishment and surprise, her eyebrows and sideburns stained with snow chips, and snow foam kept cooling down her neckline and chest.
At the same time, there was an exclamation inside, "It's bad, it's bad, why didn't Lirong give a letter first!" ”
Lirong ran out of the back room, and she was in charge of watching the people in the courtyard from the window. Seeing Lilan's embarrassed appearance, Lirong said, "Who is smashing isn't smashing, isn't he coming in, and the snow balls in your hands have been holding?" ”
Liu Yuru came up and complained, "Lirong, you can really do it, don't say a word." If we hit my uncle and aunt, wouldn't it be rude for us? ”
Lilan made these women embarrassed in front of her parents, and her own sister Lirong was also an accomplice, and she didn't save her. Lilan turned her head to look at her parents and found that they were smiling more happily than the people inside.
Everyone came out one after another, stepped forward to pat the broken snow on Lilan's body, and some people kept apologizing. Then he helped the two old men in, poured hot tea, served snacks, untied their cloaks and gave up their seats, and asked them what they had experienced on the way.
Listening to the laughter inside, Gao Jun dusted off his robe, cleared his throat, pouted and stepped into the courtyard, saying in his heart that Lord Ben has never been ambushed in the bushes, how can he not see through your little tricks!.
Li Wanqing and Lirong got up to welcome them out, but they saw that a few people suddenly raised their faces, so they didn't move.
Gao Jun entered the room and made a circle and said, "Madam, I'm coming back." ”
No one paid attention to him, Liu Yuru said, "Grandfather is seriously ill in Chang'an and is worried that your robe is not clean, and we want to stay a few more days but he has also brought it back." But I see that the tall man's robe is very clean, it seems that he is self-inflicted! The beard is also clean, whose credit is this? ”
Gao Jun smiled and didn't speak, and hurriedly asked about his grandfather's condition, and everyone said that his grandfather had not improved in bed, and it was difficult to move since the onset of the illness.
But he didn't let the people in Xizhou run anymore, saying that the road was too far.
Liu Yuru didn't pay attention to Gao Jun, but talked to Lilan. Xie Jinlian, Fan Ying, Cui Yan and others wanted to say more to him, but they felt that it would be too easy to forgive him.
In front of Lilan, if you don't say a few words to him, it seems that you are still worried about him and Lilan. So he talked around the two old men. Siqing said, "Uncle and Aunt and Lilan will live in Xizhou for a little longer. ”
Liu Yuru obviously heard it and didn't respond, but the two old men said, "There is a house in the West Village, how can it be crowded here, and Lilan has to go back to the ranch village to take care of the pond." ”
Lilan thought that although this Liu girl no longer mentioned the previous incident and forgave Gao Jun on the surface, it seemed unlikely that she would enter Gao Jun's home from now on.
However, being able to return to Ranch Village without having to wander around Sand City is a good result for Lilan.
By this time, Liu Yuru had slowly adapted to the surprise that the Taoist Master Wugu had brought her.
Daoist Wugu wanted to leave after reciting the Pure Heart Mantra in the Gao Mansion, but the elder of the pavilion would not let her leave with tears in his eyes. As a result, Wugu was able to stay and meet with all the women in Gao Jun's family.
She is very affectionate to every woman, especially Liu Yuru and Fan Ying, and Liu Yuru knows another version of Gao Jun's life experience.
Wugu said that Gao Jun was her biological son, and she said it sincerely, and Liu Yuru couldn't help but believe it.
Thinking of Hou Junji's attitude of ignoring Gao Jun when he was alive, the more Liu Yuru thought about it, the more he believed Wugu's words.
In this way, the secret relationship between her and Gao Jun, which is different from the other sisters, can be said to exist at all.
Liu Yuru has always believed that she and Gao Jun are the only two people left in the Hou Mansion after the catastrophe, and this special relationship of sharing hardships and hardships is what distinguishes her from other sisters.
This kind of relationship brings her closer to Gao Jun, allowing her to occasionally be petty and play with her temper without worrying about anything.
But does she still have that privilege now?
Therefore, Liu Yurucai did not insist on returning to Shanyang Town, and soon returned to Xizhou according to Ge Lao's wishes.
She no longer grabbed Lilan's toenails cutting Gao Jun's toenails, and I have to say that she was also affected by this incident, but she didn't want to admit it.
At this moment, she thought that Gao Jun must not know his own background yet, and felt that he had glanced at her several times, which contained uncertain worries. Now that there are outsiders, Liu Yuru enjoys his sincere and fearful posture very much, and deliberately ignores him.
After lunch, the two old men said that they wanted to go back to the West Village, and Lilan also said that they were leaving, she knew that the matter was not over after Gao Jun entered the house.
Gao Jun ordered someone to escort him.
After sending people away, Liu Yuru didn't ask Gao Jun what he had done in these days, and at the same time, she also signaled the others not to mention the topic of Lilan.
Not pursuing it does not mean accepting Lilan's identity, at most it is just pretending not to know.
But in the dead of night, Liu Yuru endured Gao Jun's tiredness while pondering, "Your mother is still alive...... We all met her this time. ”
Gao Jun snorted, "I know, last time I took Xie Jinlian and Li Wanqing to Chang'an, I proposed to let her come to Xizhou, but she didn't come, saying that she couldn't leave Qingxin'an." ”
Liu Yuru asked in surprise, "It turns out that you already knew!" But dare to hide it from me! ”
"I like that you've always been the same as before, not to be influenced by this identity. For this reason, I prefer to believe that I am still from the Hou Mansion...... Besides, is this identity real now? ”
Liu Yuru was inexplicably moved, his family background and identity have changed, but in fact, his attitude towards himself has not changed.
She said in a consultative tone, "The Xizhou Mansion is not spacious, but it all depends on you, regardless of my feelings, I can't stop it by pulling so many people in." ”
Gao Jun said, "I was not good before, but after you left, I didn't even drink alcohol, and I only drank wine with Brother Zhao once in Shaya City, and drank with Su Fa once." But no one said they had to come in. ”
Liu Yuru exaggeratedly exclaimed, "Are you taboo in alcohol?" Don't be afraid of anything. It seems that after dawn, I have to let my mother see if Su Yin's eyebrows are open. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Don't worry about that!"
The snow outside the house was pouring down again, making Gao Jun and Liu Yuru recall together that three years ago, in the mountains and firewood houses outside the ranch village, it was also a heavy snowfall.
The sound of snow gives the illusion that time is beginning to turn back slowly.
More than a thousand joys and sorrows alternate day and night, one after another, wave after wave like the tide of the sea, so that the years are like a day.
Fortunately, the two of them are still there, and the emotions are more mellow.
And the children dream in the cradle, as if they have painful and joyful emotions at a young age. Only the children make people think of the difference in the days. Because of them, the same time has a starting point.
The sound of snow reminded them that another, time-related end was near, but the night was so similar. It is like a post station in a long journey, allowing people to lie down, in the silence and restlessness, and plant small flowers of memory on the plausible journey.
The sound of snow was no different from that year. The sound of snow, the sound of snow...... No matter how long the memories are, no matter which unusually clear figures and fragments come to mind, people always feel more truly the boundlessness and lack of grasp of time. But they are heart-to-heart with each other, and they can resist the innate confusion of their hearts about where they come from and where they are going.
The sound of snow covers all things, and it can also cover the infinitely gentle whispers and graceful moans, and all the happy, laughing, melancholy, and sad past is not important.
In the sound of snow, time has entered the twenty-first year of Zhenguan, and Xizhou Vientiane is renewed and vibrant.
In four villages, the bell of the primary school took over the sound of snow, and there was a kind life that stopped as an island in the long river of time. This is a final sign of a person, a reminder that he has nothing to do with anything that follows. In the first month of the twenty-first year, Shen Guogong Gao Shi Lian Xu.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty could not hide his sincere grief and issued the "Edict on the Funeral of Gao Jian":
The mourning of the pain of the femur and the sorrow of the society. Kaifu Yi with the three divisions, Shangzhu Guo, Shen Guogong Gao Jian, Dao Gao Lang Temple, look at the virtuous. Su Jiuliu is well-known, and Mu Baizhi is prosperous. Feeling its eternity, grooming is not chasing. Gift Situ, the governor and the military of the four states of Fen, Ji and Lan. Forty people were given to the class sword, Yu Bao preached, gave 2,000 horses of silk and 2,000 stones of rice millet, and buried Zhaoling.
Before the elder of the pavilion died, he asked someone to play on behalf of the emperor, and all the men in the family, he only needed the history of the Qianzhou assassin and the five sons to return to the house to worry. It is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety, and no one else has to come back. The Emperor granted the invitation.
The court is changing, and important ministers and eunuchs are like Ye Lingfei. However, since Gao Jian entered the center, he has always held a high position with modesty, low-key diligence and non-partyism, and has won the trust of the emperor, and his last request must of course be approved.
In other words, all the officials in the Gao Mansion can occupy their original positions, and only the Gao Shen Xing has to leave the position of assassin and return to the house. This was the last decision made by Ge Lao because of Wugu's comeback.
Cui Ying's non-return, the teenage new wife Liu is in front of her, and the rumors about Gao Xing's private life in Xizhou and Qianzhou before Gao Xianxing, it is easy for people to lock the responsibility for Wugu's early disappearance on Gao Xianxing.
Ge Lao's serious illness was caused by him, and Gao Xianxing left his post and returned to Beijing, I am afraid that he would never understand his father's decision. It was a decision full of grief and natural love.
complained that he failed to treat his wife well, and let her be reduced to a nunnery. Ge Lao asked him to give up all his fame and come back to make up for Wugu. The love of nature is to perceive the defects in the character of the five sons from the grievances, and worry about the great and unpredictable dangers that he faces alone.
The elder is gone, and no one has the ability to deal with the aftermath for his abruptness.
But Gao Xianxing didn't think so, Ding Wei would take three years, it can be said that Qianzhou, which he had worked hard and fought for, and Qianzhou, which had a bumper harvest in the coming year, had nothing to do with him.
All the Gaofu disciples in Xizhou did not rush back again, because it had only been half a month since the last time they went back, and this time His Majesty had no edict, so they could not leave their posts.
The Governor's Mansion of Xizhou is hung with soap and white, Gao Jun's family is full of filial piety, Miss Tian Tian and the four little sons each wear white hats, and there is a red belt sewn on the back of the white hat, and the tail end of the red belt is decorated with a big coin......
Mrs. Cui still lives with Gao Tiantian in the old village of the ranch, and sometimes, she feels sad that she can't go back to Chang'an to see the old man for the last time. But Gao Shenxing, Wugu, and Liu are all in Chang'an, and she doesn't want to go back.
Xie Guang is in the Chihe Gold Mine, Cao Da is in charge of the three Wentang Pools in Shaya City, and now he is also a sixth-class non-qualified official, the eldest sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law and the daughter of Ling Shi, Hao Pozi and the lame old man also rushed to Shaya City to meet, and the original courtyard of the ranch village was closed and locked.
The two foremen of the silkworm room were replaced by the two wives of the housekeeper Gao Bai, Ju'er and Xuelian each led a shift in the silkworm room, and Gao Bai was in charge of the mulberry forest.
Liu Yuru, Fan Ying, Siqing, Cui Yan and others hardly returned to Ranch Village except to visit Cui's family, but Li Wanqing and Lirong often went to the silkworm room to have a look.
