Chapter 976: The Old Man, the Story

Wu Zetian's expression was particularly useful in the eyes of Princess Taiping.

She smiled, "Mother, my daughter said it well, right?" ”

Wu Zetian was noncommittal, and said: "Then in your opinion, I should deploy heavy troops to Taozhou?" ”

Princess Taiping blinked her eyes and said, "My daughter's opinion is true. Mother, think carefully, and discuss it with the military minister! ”

Wu Zetian frowned, and even the tone of his voice was like Xue Shao!

Princess Taiping is still smiling, with the charm of a villain.

When Wu Zetian saw her like this, he was both amused and felt a little relieved, and said: "Then according to your opinion, who can lead the army to fight against the Garqin Tomb?" ”

"Black teeth are common." Princess Taiping replied without hesitation.

"The Black Tooth Changzhi is stationed at the source of the river and guards the gateway to the west of the river, how can he leave without permission?" Wu Zetian said, "What about him? ”

Princess Taiping shook her head vigorously.

"I am full of civil and military affairs, and there is no one to fight with the Garqin Mausoleum?" Wu Zetian's tone was quite surprised, "Wang Xiaojie? Lou Shide? ”

Princess Taiping still shook her head vigorously.

Wu Zetian looked at her baby daughter and smiled, "Are you so anxious to let your man come back?" ”

"Mother, the conscience of heaven and earth, my daughter is not in a hurry at all." Princess Taiping said, "My daughter would rather him play in Yangzhou for three years and five years and then come back, than let him go out for ten days and a half months." ”

"How can it be!" Wu Zetian reprimanded, "Serving the country and sharing worries for the king, is it so unbearable in your opinion?" ”

"Mother, isn't my daughter now serving the country and sharing worries for the king?" Princess Taiping said, "Xue Lang is no longer in his position. Mother, just let him go! ”

"You! ......" Wu Zetian was almost angry, "Then you just said that no one except the Black Tooth Changzhi can fight with the Garqin Tomb?" ”

"That's right!" Princess Taiping said, "But this is just my daughter's own opinion. Mother, are you so unconfident in your Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs? ”

Wu Zetian's heart was speechless, and he said: Yes, why do I have so little confidence in the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs? Could it be that except for Xue Shao, there are no more generals available in the court of this Great Zhou?!

Wrong!

This girl is using the method of agitation against me!

She was retreating, and she was actually desperate for me to reactivate Xue Shao immediately. Her heart is still for her man!

Amusing!

How can I fall for your plan?

"Taiping, what you said today is very useful to me." Wu Zetian said, "I will carefully consider your opinion and consult with the military minister before making a decision." ”

"Okay!" Princess Taiping smiled disapprovingly, "My daughter is very pleased." has been a princess for more than 20 years, and her daughter can finally be of some use to the country! ”

"If you don't make your mother angry, it will be the greatest contribution to the country." Wu Zetian said.

"Huh?" Princess Taiping had a confused expression, "Mother, what are you talking about?" How can a daughter be such a great unfilial person? ”

"That's it, let's not talk about that." Wu Zetian couldn't help but laugh, "Did Xue Shao say when he would come back?" ”

Princess Taiping shook her head.

Wu Zetian pondered for a moment and said softly, "I still want to hear his opinion with my own ears." ”

At this moment, a passenger ship is heading down the river.

Xue Shao stood on the bow of the boat in a green robe, his clothes fluttering in the wind, and a reed flute was blown melodiously by him.

At this moment, he seemed to be back to the Lantian boy of the year.

Yu Hongye stood beside him, and behind him stood a group of tourists on the same boat. Everyone listened quietly and with bated breath, to the sound of the flute.

It was a tune they had never heard before. Xue Shao is just playing this old song from his previous life. He finally remembered an old man he hadn't thought of for a long time.

An Xiaorou.

The title of the song is "Moonlight Lover", Xue Shao once fell in love with her when she was a student, and then tried to play its accompaniment with a harmonica, flute and guitar respectively.

Many memories of the past and present lives resounded leisurely in Xue Shao's mind with this song. They are like the surging river at their feet, telling stories that span thousands of years in their own unique way.

Yu Hongye stood beside Xue Shao, closed his eyes, and listened to the music attentively.

She felt that she had never been so close to Xue Shao. Every note she heard now was a story and insight hidden deep in Xue Shao's heart.

So romantic, so sad.

So affectionate, so desperate......

The end of the song.

The ship was silent. People silently wiped their tears from the corners of their clothes, and then silently retreated to the cabin.

They all forgot to cheer.

"Does it sound good?" Xue Shao turned his head and asked Yu Hongye with a smile.

"It's not good." Yu Hongye shook his head.

Xue Shao smiled, "I haven't practiced for many years, it seems that I have neglected my skills." ”

"You're not unskilled. It was the most beautiful flute I had ever heard. Yu Hongye said, "But it doesn't sound good." It's too hurtful. ”

Xue Shao smiled, casually pinned the flute to his waist, propped his hands on the railing of the boat, and said lightly: "If there is no pain, there will be no man in this world." ”

"It's a real man." Yu Hongye added.

Xue Shao smiled, "It seems that you also have a deep understanding." ”

Yu Hongye said calmly: "I have been in business for many years, and every day I am in contact with all kinds of different people. Everyone has their own story, and everyone's perception of life is different. Some people like to write their joys and sorrows on their faces, while others are used to keeping them deep in their hearts. ”

"By what you say, I'm clearly the latter?" Xue Shao said.

Yu Hongye smiled slightly and said, "Your inner world is majestic and painful that I can't imagine. ”

"You've imagined it." Xue Shao said.

Yu Hongye was slightly stunned and looked at Xue Shao.

"Actually, I'm nowhere near as complex and advanced as you think." Xue Shao stared at the river lapping the hull of the boat under his feet and said, "I have always wanted to be an ordinary and simple person. It's just that I can't. ”

"Now you do." Yu Hongye smiled, "Even if it's temporary." ”

Xue Shao smiled, "Yes." When I found out that there were a lot of people behind me listening to my flute, I actually enjoyed it. It felt like I had been floating in the sky for a long time, and finally my feet had landed on the earth. When you step on your feet, your heart will be steady. ”

"That's why you want to travel alone?" Yu Hongye asked.

"Sort of one of the reasons!" Xue Shao turned his head and looked at her with a smile.

Yu Hongye's face flushed slightly, and she quickly changed the topic, "You don't worry about things at home?" And the things in the court? ”

Xue Shao looked back at the nearby people, so he whispered, "Things at home have never worried me. As for the things in the court...... If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government. Rather than being mediocre and disturbing yourself, it is better to put it aside. ”

"Makes sense." Yu Hongye nodded thoughtfully, "In the bureau, the word free and easy is the most difficult." ”

"Actually, I'm not very free." Xue Shao said, "Before leaving, I thought about a lot of things, and I also estimated and predicted some things that might happen, and explained them to the princess in private. If the Empress comes to ask for advice, the princess will deal with it, and it won't involve me. ”

Yu Hongye smiled slightly, "Is this the legend, worried about the country and the people?" ”

"Haha!" Xue Shao laughed, "I'm not that great. I just don't want this country to suffer too many more disasters and too many more deaths. Although I have just arrived, I feel a little old. When you get older, you become amorous and don't want to see too much bloodshed and death anymore. ”

"Nonsense."

For the first time in history, Yu Hongye scolded Xue Shao.

Xue Shao smiled, "It's really rare." ”

"Standing at thirty is the year of the year." Yu Hongye's face quietly turned red, and said: "You at this moment are the most real and charming Xue Shao I have ever seen. ”

Xue Shao smiled, "I have been an official for ten years, and sometimes even I feel a little hateful. I felt like I was about to lose myself. So this time I stole an opportunity to exile myself and then go back to find myself. ”

Yu Hongye's eyebrows furrowed slightly, chewing the meaning of Xue Shao's words carefully.

"Don't care, there is no deep meaning in my words." Xue Shao smiled, "I have experienced more things over the years, and I have been unable to vent the pent-up emotions in my heart. As soon as I come out and relax, I tend to babble nonsense. ”

"There's nothing wrong with that. Bad emotions are meant to be vented and not stored up all the time. Yu Hongye said, "Sometimes when I encounter troubles, I get drunk. When you are drunk, you cry and laugh, and when you wake up, everything is normal and you are fine. ”

"It's also a great way to release stress!" Xue Shao smiled, "What do you look like when you cry and laugh, I really want to see it?" ”

"Maybe you really have a chance?" Yu Hongye pointed forward, "We're almost in Yangzhou." No one knows us there, so we can indulge in a day of drinking. I even want to provoke a few street hooligans and try the taste of being chased and beaten by chickens and dogs! ”

"Haha!" Xue Shao laughed, "I didn't expect you to want to seek excitement, and you would be so rebellious?" ”

"Why not?" Yu Hongye smiled, "I'm also a normal person, with the same desires and emotions as everyone. ”

"That's pretty good." Xue Shao said with a smile, "When we get to Yangzhou, we will go crazy." I'll fight and scold you first. As long as you don't get hacked to death in the suburbs, everything else will end well. ”

"Haha!"

For the first time, Yu Hongye laughed so disregarding the image of a lady in front of Xue Shao, "Then it's a word, Brother Cheng!" ”.

[There is a pure music version of "Moonlight Lover" accompaniment played by an extraordinary band, and I personally like to listen to it. Also, by the way, I would like to ask for a ticket, thank you! 】
