Chapter 171: A Chance Encounter
The ox cart was getting closer, the man in white had handsome eyebrows, a bun on his head at random, and the rest of his hair was scattered and draped, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and his face was slightly pale, with a little less blood, but it added a bit of morbid chic. Please everyone search for ()!, the fastest update
The ox cart stopped, the sound of the flute was still there, fluttering on the ice, suddenly a note was raised, leaping into the clouds, playing in the sea of clouds, the ice gradually melted, the dry branches gave birth to small green buds, and the birds returned from the south, jumping and singing among the branches.
The green buds grow and bloom with tender leaves, the ice melts, the river flows slowly, the boats float on the water, the white flowers on the reeds bloom, the fields are dressed in green, the wildflowers bloom all over the fields, and the fragrance of flowers spreads between heaven and earth.
The sound of the flute gradually muffled, and the piper walked into the distance, and the birds flew in the blue sky, and the petals of the flowers fell, accompanied by the small fragments of time.
The three of them were fascinated by what they heard, and they didn't know that the ox cart had stopped on the side, and the man in white put down the bamboo flute, let out a long sigh faintly, and chanted in a loud voice: "The snow is slightly cold, the sea is floating and the clouds are swimming; ”
The three of them got up almost at the same time, and Qiu Ge laughed and said, "What a free and idle person! In Xia Qiu Ge, this gentleman, can you drink together!"
The man in white opened his eyes and looked at the three of them, Lu Fan and Liu Han bowed slightly, and the eyes of the man in white fell on Liu Han: "Who is this general?"
Liu Han smiled: "In Xia Liu Han, now the forbidden army is in power, listening to the flute of Mr., it is quite noble, I don't know if we can sit together?"
The man in white smiled faintly, got up and got out of the car, brushed the dust on his clothes, and then returned the salute: "The idler Yuan Wang harassed." ”
Lu Fan laughed and grabbed Yuan Wang's hand: "Come, come, everyone drink together!"
Liu Han also smiled and let the upper seat out, Yuan Wang was slightly surprised, among the three, it was actually Liu Han who sat on the upper seat, he didn't ask carefully, sat down straight, the vast ice, and said with a smile: "I feel idle, I can't think of the three of them but more free, enjoy the ice in the river in winter, interesting, interesting!"
"The white clouds are leisurely, and the world is idle;" Liu Han condensed slightly, and said with a smile: "Why don't you change it to a sand gull in heaven and earth." ”
"Heaven and earth are a sand gull?" Lu Fan shook his head after a little thought: "It's not good, it's not good, it's too lonely." ”
The man in white didn't seem to hear it, his eyes lit up, and he muttered: "Heaven and earth are a sand gull, heaven and earth are a sand gull, sand gull, sand gull." ”
"What Brother Lu said is that the world is a sand gull, so if it is changed, it rhymes, but it loses its freedom and adds three points of loneliness. Qiu Ge agreed.
The man in white shook his head and said: "Sand gull, this bird lives on the lake and sea, feeds on fish and shrimp, soars between the mountains and rivers, and is not trapped by the world, which is enviable." ”
Qiu Ge was slightly stunned, still shaking his head, but before he could speak, Lu Fan had already preemptively said: "Sir's words are wrong, the snow is slightly cold, the sea is floating and the clouds are swimming, quite free and easy, floating like a fairy, adding this sand gull, there is a sense of disconnection from the whole article, Brother Liu, what do you say." ”
Liu Han was slightly contemplative, and then spoke: "Last year, I took a boat to the south, and I saw sand gulls soaring along the way, flying freely among the clouds and waters, unlike us, for fame, for livelihood, for ambition, trapped by it, so I was envious." ”
Yuan Wang clapped his hands and applauded: "Brother Liu is worthy of the three articles of the Emperor Capital, and "Spring River Flower and Moonlight Night" is also fragrant after a thousand years, who are we waiting for, pretending to be free and easy, but in fact, they are not trapped in fame, but they are trapped in profit, and there is the freedom of sand gulls. ”
Liu Han was slightly surprised, and Qiu Ge said with a smile: "It turns out that Brother Yuan came to see Brother Liu today. ”
"Second Prince Qiu, Master Lu, I have long been famous, and I have long been willing to make friends, but unfortunately, I have never had the opportunity," Yuan Wang said with a smile, suddenly a gust of wind blew, he couldn't help but shiver, wrapped his robe, Liu Han hurriedly poured him wine, he was not polite, he drank it dry, and suddenly felt warmer, and then smiled and said: "Today's opportunity has come, I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and give three a cup." ”
The four of them raised their glasses and drank at the same time, Liu Han took the initiative to pick up the wine jug to add wine to the three of them, and said with a smile: "I have been in the imperial capital for a year, I thought that most of the characters in the imperial capital have been seen, but I didn't expect that there would be a hidden person like Mr. ”
Qiu Ge couldn't help but wonder when he heard this, Liu Han had been out for more than half a year, but he had been messing around in the imperial capital, not to mention, there was also this guy Lu Fan, this guy had been in the imperial capital for four or five years, what kind of person had never seen it, but he was obviously very unfamiliar with this man in white, or he didn't know it at all.
Yuan Wang obviously also heard Liu Han's meaning, so he smiled and said: "I am from the imperial capital, but I have lived in other places for a long time, and I have only returned to the imperial capital for a few months, and I have no reputation. ”
Yuan Wang turned around slightly, and unloaded Liu Han's inquiry, but complimented him twice, Liu Han smiled faintly, did not give up, and it was already his instinct to be vigilant against the strangers around him, especially the strangers who came to be unclear, so he continued to ask: "Brother Yuan is too modest, Brother Yuan is probably unintentionally famous, not like me, greedy for false fame, and then burdened by false fame, a sand gull in heaven and earth, Brother Yuan is a sand gull in heaven and earth." ”
"Sand Gull?!" Yuan Wang smiled and said calmly, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and Qiu Ge also smiled: "I'm curious, is that master able to teach you such a handsome talent?"
Qiu Ge spoke much more directly, and quite politely, Lu Fan glared at him, and then looked at him, asking without concealment.
"The family teacher is not a person in the mountains and wilderness, the name is not obvious in the world, these years have been living in seclusion in Daishan, died three years ago, I married in front of the teacher's tomb for three years, and only returned to the imperial capital this year. Yuan Wang's tone was gentle, but his answer was not leaky, and he couldn't find a single flaw.
Qiu Ge frowned slightly, and couldn't help but glance at it, which seemed to mean that this guy didn't want to leak his master like you.
Although Liu Han was puzzled in his heart, he didn't think much about it, the most important thing is that this Yuan Wang's cultivation is shallow, with Liu Han's knowledge, this Yuan Wang's cultivation is at most a martial apprentice, not even a warrior, if this guy has the cultivation of Chang Liyan, then he should be a little more vigilant.
"Only a person like Lingshi can teach an idle person like Brother Yuan. Liu Han also complimented, Yuan Wang always had an elegant smile, which made Liu Han a little difficult to judge.
But Yuan Wang had skillfully gotten rid of the three people's inquiries, and immediately began to interrogate Liu Hanlai, Liu Han quietly repeated the lie, and after Yuan Wang heard it, he accepted it very casually.
"The three of you are enjoying the ice today, do you have any good poems?" asked Yuan Wang.
Liu Han shrugged: "We are here to be quiet today, the city is too noisy." ”
Yuan Wang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly nodded with a smile: "That's right, it's too noisy in the city, or it's quiet here." ”
"The imperial court is in urgent need of new blood now, if Brother Yuan is willing to join the army, Brother Qiu can recommend it to the hussar general. Liu Han said.
Without waiting for Qiu Ge to say, Yuan Wang had already refused with a smile: "I also like to be quiet, Brother Liu, don't hurt me." ”
The four of them were silent at first, and then they laughed at the same time, and the laughter alarmed the birds among the branches, and they fluttered their wings and burrowed into the reeds of the dry storehouse, and did not dare to come out again.
Next, they chatted about what they had seen and heard, and they were surprised that they didn't compose poems, and they didn't even mention Lu Fan, but Yuan Wang was still very strange why Liu Han wanted to join the forbidden army instead of being a civil official or something.
"Everyone has to ask a few words," Liu Han looked very helpless, many people asked the same question, he had to explain again: "I don't like to chant poetry, my favorite is to make money in business, many people make money in business, for these people, I have nothing to say, just say Brother Qiu and Brother Lu, you have the support of the Qiu family and the Lu family, if you don't have their support, the two of you are the two of you who eat the poor eggs today and have no tomorrow, and you are still in the mood to enjoy the ice here, hurry up to the dock and wait for work."
I heard that the imperial court may implement the strategy of reckoning and suing, I want to enter the court to get an official, or I can find a protective umbrella, the Western Regions business road is used to walking, I like to gallop horses and whips, besides, I have this brain, and this background, just get a civil official, it is not big, it is better to dance the sword and make the sword, maybe that day the war together, you can also get a general to do it. ”
"The most important thing is that there is also Lord Xue Xue as the backstage, right!"
As soon as Liu Han's words fell, Qiu Ge revealed his old bottom, Liu Han laughed without shame, Lu Fan shook his head, very disappreciative of his thoughts, and Yuan Wang smiled silently.
"Brother Liu, you are insincere and disloyal to the court. Lu Fan couldn't help but reproach.
Liu Han retorted unceremoniously: "I don't think there's anything wrong with this, the kind of person who has the court before he is a saint, besides, I worked hard and risked my life to go to the Western Regions, and it was easy to save this little belongings, why should the court accept it, so first of all, the court is insincere." ”
"The shore of the land is not the king's land. ”
Before Lu Fan's words were finished, he was unceremoniously interrupted by Liu Han: "Get it! Brother Lu, I'm stupid to read all the books, do you really think that those wealthy scholars are so public in the world, and the emperor will give whatever he wants, Brother Lu, think about it, don't talk far, just say that now, the emperor wants the land of Chen Guojun, and those gate lords really want the world to be the public, why don't they give the land to the emperor? They dare not oppose the emperor, but they aim at Pengzhu, in fact, in my Pengzhu is gentle enough, if you want to change someone, Chen Guojun will have to be full of people this time. ”
Lu Fan shook his head when he heard this, and was about to argue, but Qiu Ge interrupted them with a smile: "Everyone has their own ambitions, Brother Lu, you can't be reluctant, besides, this guy is originally a profiteer, and he is expected to be selfless, and he is just begging for fish from the wood, don't be angry." ”
Liu Han didn't care even more, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'll just treat you as if you're praising me." ”
"The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit, honest and not deceiving. Yuan Wang sighed.
"It's not profitable, it's not early, this is the truth!" Liu Han laughed and said, damn, the world game in the previous life was not all for profit, Lao Meidong went to the west and meddled everywhere, not for profit, no profit, who will care about you.
The topic was a little boring, the four of them drank for a while, Qiu Ge saw this and asked Yuan Wang to play a song, Yuan Wang happily obeyed, so the melodious flute sound floated between heaven and earth again.
After hesitating for two days, the emperor issued an order to dismiss Wei Dian Yushi Lingcheng, and handed over the crime of forming a party to the court lieutenants, and at the same time arrested 30 officials who participated in the palace knocking incident.
Huge earthquake in the government and the opposition!
