Chapter 3 Emergence (Three Times) Hong Fu doesn’t understand the intrigues and tricks in the officialdom, but as a woman, she deeply understands the sadness in Wan’er’s heart at this moment. A wife who was decisively abandoned by her husband at a critical moment of life and death, a wife who saw
The woman who has her best friend in front of her, but cannot reach out to gently hold her, can only watch her sister love, hate, and quietly cry in other people's stories, even if she is the apple of the prince's eye, even if her subordinates
With tens of thousands of fans, every night when facing the endless lights, I feel like the night wind is like a knife!
But in this matter, Hong Fu knew that he couldn't do anything to help his sworn brother. He was a unique man, upright and as thick as a mountain. In this world, most men couldn't wait to take all the women they saw home.
There is no fate at all, or they are abandoned in the beginning, and they only wish that the other person is unkind. Whether he is kicked out of the house by his husband, or is despised and reviled by the world, he cannot get any happiness anyway. But the sworn brother is not like this. He knows how to appreciate and respect.
Understand that other people's lives are as important as your own, and you will not give or ask for anything indiscriminately, nor will you use the happiness of others' lives to enjoy your own happiness overnight.
Hongfu still remembers the first time she saw Li Xu after taking off her disguise. Over the years, she has become accustomed to other men's eyes that are so hot that they want to swallow them alive when they see her true appearance.
In Li Xu's eyes, in addition to shock, she only saw things like appreciating flowers, water, and the moon. She might be a little moved inadvertently, but in an instant she would be clean and free of any dust.
"This man's heart has been filled!" At that moment, Hong Fu, who was the same age as Xu Zi but had ten years of traveling experience as a performer, concluded in his heart that such a man would not be like some vulgar people who desperately ask for things.
But he will always be hungry. Such a man will guard his own small family, guard his wife and children, and live contentedly. He will use his shoulders and arms to hold up a sky without grievance for the people he cares about.
And no matter how wide the sky is, there will be no place for Wan'er. No matter what disputes the two had in the past, no matter how many regrets they left when they passed by each other.
"How old is your sister this year?" Seeing that Hongfu stopped talking for a long time, Wan'er let go of her worries and asked with a smile.
"The same age as my adopted brother, but just two months younger than him!" Hongfu couldn't guess the purpose of Wan'er's question, so he thought about it and answered truthfully.
"That's similar to me. Has your sister been living alone for so many years?" Wan'er thought about it and asked again.
"I once promised to get married, but then our family backgrounds were too far apart, so we delayed it!" Hong Fu's pure eyes slowly filled with a trace of annoyance, and he answered with a smile.
"That's a pity!" Wan'er thought to herself. From the way Hongfu dealt with people and the magnanimity he showed when speaking, she could tell that this person had seen some big things in the world, and he was peerless.
Appearance, no matter whether it is given to Wang Yuantong or Qi Poning, it will not insult their status. It can make one of the two restrain his mind and stop thinking about harassing the female family members of passing travelers.
As for the son himself, he will also have a good companion, so that he will not be too depressed in his spare time.
But 10 out of 10 people who are unhappy in life sighed softly, and Wan'er asked again: "Is that man afraid to marry you due to family pressure? Or is he simply perfunctory with the woman's family without any delay? Could it be that he just
Are you willing to watch you grow old day by day?"
"No!" Hongfu was confused by the question. He slowed down involuntarily and lowered his head to play with some mountain flowers. She was sold as a dancer since she was a child and couldn't remember who her parents were. And the waiter under her couldn't remember who her parents were.
I have long been accustomed to the strong and cold appearance of the big shopkeeper, and I have never regarded her as a woman. Therefore, no one has ever cared about the life-long events of my daughter's family, and no one has gone straight to the subject like Wan'er.
"It's not that he doesn't dare to marry you, he just doesn't mean it! Thank you for covering up for him!" Even though she comes from a wealthy family, Li Waner still has a nature that all women can't overcome. Before getting to know the other person well, she first helps others to sort out their family history.
"It's not like what my sister said! He has a distinguished family background, and Hongfu, the official of the imperial court, came from a humble background. Even his parents and brothers were not married. When he was young, he didn't know what it means to be well-matched. Later, as he grew older, he didn't know whether the original promise was worth it.
Count..." Hongfu was so anxious that his face was covered with sweat, and he hurriedly explained that a bouquet of mountain flowers in his hand had been crushed to pieces without knowing it, and the yellow, yellow, and red petals fell in the wind, just like countless colorful butterflies flying in the sky.
After blinking and thinking for a long time, Wan'er finally figured out what Hong Fu had said. She didn't have any parents or brothers, and she didn't know whether the promise was valid. It was obvious that she had a private contract with someone for life. For a prostitute like Hong Fu,
For me, there is nothing wrong with having a lifelong private contract, but the key point is that I didn’t know what it means to be a good match at the beginning! Hongfu didn’t know, didn’t the man who was an official know? Could it be that he just started to mess up and gave up in the end?
Idea? No one will step forward to bully a girl!
She had just been let down, so she hated that kind of irresponsible man. Seeing Hong Fu transform from a free and easy woman in the world to an aggrieved little doormat in an instant, her anger was immediately aroused: "What imperial official?
You are now the sister of a general, are you not worthy of an ordinary petty official? Unless he is a son of a rich family who was born with a golden seal, and in that case, he should not lie to you! What is that person's surname, and where is he high?
Just? One day my sister will bring someone to arrest him and ask him if he has any conscience?"
"It's not like that, it's really not like that?" Hong Fu was almost forced to tears by the unreasonable Wan'er. For people in the Tang Gong family, a fifth-grade county magistrate is really only a small official as big as a sesame seed and a mung bean.
But it took that man ten years of hard work to reach the position of county magistrate. If his career was delayed because of his careless words, even if he could get his wish in the future, he would not be able to face his loss.
Hongfu knew that in the hearts of men, achievements were always placed before women. Those who could afford to put down as much as the step-brother were really rare. Moreover, the step-brother only looked away after he had achieved fame, but that man had just seen the chance of fame.
hope
"It's not this, it's not that, Hong Fu, what is right? You can't just wander around all the time!" Wan'er realized that she was asking a little hastily, so she changed her tone and whispered.
"I don't know? Sister, don't ask, really don't ask?" Hong Fu turned around slightly, with her back to Wan'er and answered. At this moment, she is no longer a famous chivalrous woman in the world, and she has carefully hidden her secrets.
Her weakness was exposed. If a beast suddenly burst out from the grass, she knew that she wouldn't even have the strength to draw her sword now.
"Okay, no hello! After all, we just met not long ago! Sister shouldn't be nosy!" Wan'er sighed, finally realizing that she was too lenient. She was not a mother-in-law woman, but somehow,
From the moment she told Hong Fu about the misunderstanding, she wanted to help him. Maybe it was because of her friendship with Li Xu's adopted sister. Maybe it was because she had been too lonely recently. Anyway, she didn't want to see the other person acting like this.
I am as lonely as myself, flying all over the world like a wild goose that has strayed from the flock.
"No, Zhongjian and I are brothers and sisters, and my sister is also her sister-in-law. Some of the things my sister said to me are because she cares about my good and bad things. My sister understands in her heart!" Hongfu heard the estrangement in Wan'er's tone.
, thought for a while, and responded in a low voice.
Frankly speaking, she has no ill feelings towards Wan'er. Although the other party asked a lot of private questions that should not be asked, as an orphan without a family, she has always been looking forward to some kind of care like a brother and sister. The sworn brother Li Xu is a big man, no
The appearance of Wan'er, who would take into account these daughter's concerns, just made up for this regret. Therefore, Hongfu was not angry at Wan'er's recklessness, but his life-long events could not be explained clearly in a few words. In other words, Hongfu himself
There is no definite answer, let alone one that can be discussed with someone like Wan'er who has experienced it.
"Why don't we become sisters, just like you and Zhong Jian became sworn brothers and sworn sisters! In this way, I can help you as your sister, so that you don't have anyone to talk to!" Li Waner was also Linglong.
Thoughts, stand in Hong Fu’s perspective, put yourself in her shoes
"How dare Hong Fu reach such high places!" Zhang Chuchen was startled by Wan'er's suggestion and quickly declined.
"What are you talking about? I'm the king of the mountain now. I'm not the daughter of Duke Tang, but you are the leader of a prostitute. Your status in the world is equal to mine!"
The two of them are not rigid people, and they have a good impression of each other, so with a few polite words, the matter of sworn friendship was settled. Immediately, Wan'er took Hongfu, found a sunny slope, and inserted it on it.
The three wild flowers then bowed several times to the flowing clouds in the sky. After they straightened up, they became sisters with different surnames. The distance between them was gone, and their expressions became more warm when they spoke.
Both of them knew that Li Xu had a heavy drinking capacity, so they were not in a hurry to return to Juyi Hall and avoid the eyes of a bunch of drunkards. They walked around the mountain together, watching the spring scenery to their fullest. As they became familiar with each other, they unknowingly became familiar with each other.
The conversation turned to Hong Fu's life-long event. This time, Hong Fu no longer felt abrupt. He sighed and whispered: "When I promised myself to him, it was ten years ago..."
"What, ten years ago, how old were you then?" This time it was Li Waner's turn to be surprised, her eyes widened and she asked
"Sister, don't worry, just listen to what I have to say!" Hong Fu smiled and continued.
This past incident has always been hidden in her heart. She has never had anyone to talk to or a good sister to talk to, and her heart will not be as lost as before.
Back then, she was the dancer of Chu Gong Yang Su's family. She was only eleven years old, but she had already attracted many people who couldn't take their eyes away. Hong Fu knew that sooner or later, she would be swallowed up by those burning eyes, just like the other dancing sisters in the mansion.
It was the same, from a plaything in front of the hall to a plaything on the bedside, but she was not qualified to feel sad for herself. She could only beg in private to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, begging that this day would not come too early.
But one day, she decided to dedicate herself to a customer and never regretted it for the rest of her life.
He was a young man who was frustrated in officialdom. It was said that he was implicated by General Han Qinhu and lost his official position. Therefore, he was full of ambitions and had nowhere to show his ambitions. He had to seek help from Yang Su's house. Yang Su also admired that young man very much and patted him.
He looked at the bed he was sitting on and said, "You will definitely sit in this position in the future."
Hong Fu clearly remembered what kind of envy, jealousy, and resentment the guests showed when Yang Su finished speaking. Anyway, no one was interested in watching the sisters' dance. Only the young man named Li Jing,
He actually smiled at Hong Fu, who was leading the dance, and then slowly turned his head and thanked Yang Su for the compliment.
That night, the young man stayed in Yang Su's house. On the same night, by chance, Hongfu passed by Yang Xuangan's window and heard someone suggesting to the prince of Chu that the young man should be killed because he would not do anything for Chu.
For use by the public
Hong Fu was frightened to death and rushed to the young man named Li Jing's room to report the bad news. Instead of panicking, Li Jing calmly thanked her for his help and made a promise in person.
, if he becomes famous in his youth, he will marry her
Then, she took Li Jing and escaped from Chu Gong's Mansion through the Jiaomen and watched him embark on the official road leaving the capital. Then, she lived in the rivers and lakes and was adopted by a woman who danced swords in the street for a living. After her adoptive mother passed away, she
She took over the entire sales team and led everyone to continue drifting. In the process, she had heard Li Jing's name several times, either south or north, and his official career was ups and downs.
She once thought about going to the door and asking the other person if he still remembered the appointment that day, but thinking about her own identity and the other person's ambition, she had to hide her thoughts until a few months ago, when she heard that he had lost his official position again.
Muster up the courage to go north, hoping to find an end to the ten years of waiting.
"The person my sister is looking for is Li Jing, the Prime Minister of Mayi County, right?" Listening to Hongfu telling the end of the story, the stunned Wan'er finally calmed down and asked quietly
What kind of courage does it take for a woman who is so beautiful that her eyes are almost losing color to wait for ten years for someone's promise when she is running for her life? And the person who is running for his life may have long forgotten what he said at that time, maybe
At that time, it was basically to deceive a little girl so that she could take him to escape.
But she could not remind Hongfu of these words, because a girl only has ten years in her life, because no matter how strong the love is, it cannot withstand the suffering of the years.
"Yes, anyway, the Sui Dynasty is about to die. There is no need for Li Lang to continue to be an official of the Sui Dynasty. Now I come to find a hero to join him, so that we can fulfill his wish together!" Looking at the mountain
It's dark green, and the speaker's face is full of expectations for happiness.
Drunkard's Note: The story of the Three Fengchen Heroes is widely circulated among the people. In the legend, after Li Jing met Hongfu in Yang Su's mansion, they ran away together to join Li Shimin. Soon after, Li Shimin joined his father in revolting and later Hongfu's wife relied on her husband. But according to historical records,
When Li Yuan rebelled, Yang Su had been dead for ten years
