The setting sun is bright red, and the sunset glow spreads across the sky like a tide.
The warm autumn breeze blew in slightly from the window. Yunzhu was sitting at the desk in front of the window, holding a brush and carefully finishing a text. She had just changed clothes, and she was wearing a loose goose-yellow dress.
, although her eyes were serious, there was still a warm atmosphere on her reddish cheeks. In fact, she had just finished taking a bath, her hair was slightly stained with water, and her body was still exuding a fresh fragrance.
Before Ning Yi came out of the bathroom, she used this short gap to complete the work that Ning Yi had asked her to do not long ago.
Not long after, the man came over and held her neck from behind. The familiar breath made her tilt her head slightly and rub her cheek. He said: "Don't mess with me, Mr. Qian's article is over."
Once you’ve finished writing, I’ll revise it.”
"Yeah." Ning Yi looked down at her writing the last few lines.
"But I am a woman after all. Although I want to write more boldly, I am afraid that there is some deviation after all. Can it really be used?"
"I'm watching it too, but...well, it's great..."
In recent times, Zhuji's storytelling business has gradually developed with the coming and going of carts. There are many things that can be spread out, and Ning Yi is already preparing. Among them, the death of Qian Xiwen in Hangzhou, the
For Ning Yi, not only Qian Xiwen, but also Qian Haiting, Qian Weiliang, Qian Weiqi and others who reported their names when he last visited Qian Xiwen, also had to leave their names.
In addition to stories about people like Qian Xiwen, what Ning Yi also prepared was a list of martial arts master rankings, martial arts anecdotes, etc. Of course, it has been three years since he came to the Wu Dynasty, and now he can speak ancient Chinese
Writing, but literary talent has always been limited by modern people's thinking habits. Therefore, he asked Yunzhu to help with the former. Of course, he can make the master list by himself, but he has to dictate things like anecdotes to others for polishing. Outsiders
In front of him, he naturally looked like he had a lot of things to do but no time at all.
At this time, he had read the article written by Yunzhu. He couldn't help but praise it - in fact, this was not a compliment. Although Yunzhu claimed to be a woman, he was very gentle and accomplished in writing and calligraphy. In comparison,
There are some romance and fantasy novels written by some sordid writers on the market. They are much better - Yunzhu won his praise. He couldn't help but be happy: "Really? Don't coax me."
"Of course." Ning Yi still looked at the article written on the paper, "You used to be a talented woman, why should I lie to you? I think it will be published in the future. There is no need to change it... Well, even if Lao Qian knows it,
I won’t call you back.”
These articles prepared for storytellers are only circulated internally for the time being. Each storyteller has their own understanding, and it depends on how they use it. But if more are collected in the future, they can naturally be collected and published. Yunzhu turned sideways
He held Ning Yi's arm: "Mr. Qian is an admirable person..."
When she said this, she did not continue. Ning Yi just smiled and put away the paper on which the story was written. After a while, Yunzhu said: "Li Heng, how are you doing with the disaster relief work you have been busy with recently?"
"It's almost about to begin. Oh, by the way, Yaoshi Guo has another victory..." Ning Yi smiled and told Yunzhu about the recent victory in the north. Yunzhu blinked and became even happier.
.Her mood actually follows Ning Yi. When Ning Yi is happy, she is naturally happy. When Ning Yi is worried, she cannot help but worry. But when it comes to patriotism, most everyone has similar moods.
"In this case, the Jurchens will no longer look down on us, right?"
"It's hard to say, you have to take your time, but it's finally a good start." Ning Yi hugged her and let her sit on his lap, thinking of one thing, "Ah, Li Pin's position has also been decided, tomorrow
You can treat him to a meal."
"Master Li...has become a high official?"
"Ha, um, sir." Ning Yi smiled and said, "Speaking of which, you and Jin'er also knew him when we were in Jiangning. Now that we are in the capital, we are all old acquaintances. Do you want to meet him?
"
"No, even though we knew him at first, it was only because he was a great talent and not a friend. Why did you want to meet him? However, Li Heng, you have to pay attention. These scholars, what they pursue in life is fame, wealth is easy to change, and wife is not easy to be expensive.
There are too many things about friends..."
Yunzhu hugged his shoulders, curled up her legs in Ning Yi's arms, and put her naked feet under her skirt. Ning Yi hugged her and laughed. She was tall and well-proportioned, so this posture did not look like
Children, from a distance, are just a warm and simple scene of a man and a woman embracing each other. The setting sun shines through the branches under the eaves and through the window. The two chatted warmly and simply for a long time.
When Jin'er started lighting the lamp and came back from outside, Ning Yi talked to her for a while and had a rough time before leaving the small courtyard.
***************
That night, Gao Muen's noisy voice came from Gao Qiu's study in the Taiwei Mansion.
"...Dad! Even the dog of Xiangxiu's family next door to the concierge Ahua's hometown knows that good men are everywhere! You think, in this small Bianliang City, how can I use my fists! Besides, it's all those people's fault.
People go out and spread rumors, saying that I, my son, do everything because of your power! Where do I have it! I rely on your teachings, but they all slander me like this, and I feel so wronged!"
The lamp flickered, and Gao Qiu, who was sitting at the desk doing official business, frowned, then took a brush and continued writing and working. On the ground in front of the room, Gao Mu'en was kneeling there, crying and beating the ground in a vicious manner. Soon after
, seeing that his father did not respond, he moved his knees and walked around the small half of the study room, went over and hugged his adoptive father's legs.
"Dad! You judge the truth! I also know that I did something wrong in the past! The dog of Xiangxiu's family next door to the concierge Ahua's hometown also said it. The capital is only such a big place, that's all.
When people live here, sometimes...it is inevitable that there will be some friction and a little misunderstanding, and my son has already reflected on it! My son is a man, and now he wants to do something to get some justice..."
Just as he said this, Gao Qiu stretched out his hand and put it on his hand, pushed him away to the ground, and looked over: "Ask for justice!? Who do you want to ask for? Is it possible that you still want to go to Jiangning to find that person?"
A little princess!?"
"No, no! My son just wants to do something to let others know my abilities! Dad, I think it is very strange that Lu Qian disappeared. He is such a big man and has such high martial arts skills, how could he disappear like that?
Well! And he is from our Taiwei Mansion. He disappeared like this. Our Taiwei Mansion is so shameless. My son just wants to go out and bring back your father’s face. I think... Zhou Tong
You must know the inside story, I heard that he appeared in the Jizhou area in the north recently, ah..."
"You want to go to Zhou Tong!" Before he finished speaking, Gao Qiu had already hit him in the face with a brush. The ink made a black patch on his forehead. The brush fell to the ground. Gao Mu'en quickly picked it up and handed it to Gao Mu'en.
Put it back on the desk.
"Dad, it's not... you have to look for Zhou Tong. Dad, if you say you don't want to look for him, you won't look for him..."
Gao Qiu leaned back on the chair and looked at his adopted son seriously. To be honest, although he was not his biological son, he had always been very fond of his adopted son as he had no children. At this time, he was making trouble here,
Gao Qiu also understood the reason in his heart. He was not doing it for the face of the Taiwei Mansion, but during the recent period, there was not much fun in the capital for his flowery Taisui. As for Lu Qian's death, let's not talk about it for now.
Whether he wanted to investigate or not, even if he really wanted to, with his ability to succeed more than fail, he wouldn't be able to accomplish anything big.
"You can't go find Zhou Tong." Gao Qiu stood up and thought for a moment, "Since you want to go out for a walk, that's fine. To check on Lu Qian's affairs, you just went to Shandong Road. So, I
Recently there is a letter to be sent to Liang Zhongshu of Daming Mansion. He is the son-in-law of Grand Master Cai, did you know?"
Gao Qiu tapped his fingers on the table: "Recently, there has been a food shortage in the north. The price of rice has been raised very high. Master Cai is also involved in this matter. I was about to send Master Chen there. This time
Master Chen will accompany you for a walk. You first go to Liang Shishu and give him the letter. You can live there for a while and come back after doing something. It can be regarded as regaining your face. What do you think?
?”
Gao Muen knelt there and looked at him, then suddenly rushed forward, hugged Gao Qiu's legs, and cried loudly: "Only... dad is good in the world..."
Gao Qiu patted his head: "But there are two points, please remember... First, Daming Mansion is currently prosperous and peaceful, but to the northwest, there is famine now, and to the south, it has never been peaceful. You
You can't go out. I will let Mr. Chen and the servants who passed by this time keep an eye on you. You will have your uncle Liang Shi to take care of you near Daming Mansion. You can do whatever you want and you are not allowed to run around! Secondly, you have to investigate Lu Qian's affairs.
, Yes, but you can only send someone to check, or you can ask Uncle Liang to check for you, no matter what you find..."
He lowered his head and whispered in Gao Muen's ear: "...If you don't want to die, don't go looking for Zhou Tong. Even if you see him, you must avoid him. Are you clear?"
Gao Muen listened to this and nodded desperately, followed by a lot of disgusting promises and guarantees. Gao Qiu listened for a while and sat down: "Go away."
Gao Muen rolled out of the room. He rolled outside the door, stood up and closed the door, then ran away happily. In the room, Gao Qiu smiled, and then his eyes slowly became serious.
He knew what his son wanted to do. He couldn't be unscrupulous during this period in the capital. But outside the capital, especially in Shandong, it has never been a kind place. The lives of ordinary people were like ants and grass. Where did he go?
, even if you play with a few girls and women, you won’t be able to cause any trouble, and with Liang Zhongshu taking care of you, everything will go smoothly.
As for caring about Lu Qian, that's just a joke. This son has always been bad, but he doesn't have a big heart. There are a few good women to play with him. I believe he will take it into consideration and stay in Daming Mansion like that. In the capital city
During this period, it has been difficult for him to suppress him for so long, so let him go and relax...
****************
On this night in August, the news that the troublemaker Huahua Taisui was about to leave Beijing was not a big deal. For Li Pin, who was in Beijing at this time, he learned about the news that he was about to be promoted only later than Ning Yi.
It took a long time - in the afternoon, someone from the palace came out to inform him that he would enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit tomorrow morning. Although the specific official position was not yet clear, his promotion this time was very strong, and it was already certain.
thing.
Because of this, he gave up the planned entertainment. That night, he burned incense, took a bath, and fasted. He sat in the yard with a gentle breeze and listened to the noise outside coming from afar, as if it was the sound of another world.
Passing the distant courtyard wall, the crescent moon hangs on the treetops, and the city lights soak into the night sky, melting the black sky into transparent amber...
He knew that he would remember this transparent night. Only on this night, his official career would truly take the high road. From then on, what would appear in front of him would be the real wind and river. Scholars read,
After ten years of hard work and decades of searching, he will become...a part of the force that drives this world.
He didn't know if other high-ranking officials and celebrities would feel like him when this day came, so he sat on the balcony on the second floor of Zhuji's backyard for half the night. When midnight was approaching, he quietly went back to his room to fall asleep.
The next day, he met the Holy Emperor for the second time and completed the first real confrontation between the emperor and his ministers. (To be continued...)
