MTL - Long Wind Crossing-Chapter 153
After entering the city, Gu Jiusi and Liu Yuru first went to see Gu Langhua, Jiang Rou, and Su Wan, and reported peace with them. After Gu Jiusi cleaned up, they followed Jiang He and Ye Shian into the palace gate.
Fan Xuan's attitude made Gu Jiusi calm down, he declined and stood up, respectfully said: "Doing things for Your Majesty is within the duties of the ministers, there is no hard work or hard work."
Thinking, it's not easy. You are so young, it's really embarrassing for you to deal with such a thing."
Speaking, Fan Xuan took a sip of tea and sighed: "Forget it, don't mention it, tell me the result."
Gu Jiusi came forward and explained the result clearly to Fan Xuan. After Fan Xuan listened quietly, Gu Jiusi put the book on Fan Xuan's table and respectfully said, "Most of the remaining officials are still in the east. All, I wonder what Your Majesty is going to do?"
Fan Xuan did not speak, after a long time, Fan Xuan finally said: "Since the case has been settled, let's continue with it. There is no reason to turn back halfway through. Originally, I let Ye Aiqing and Zuo Xiang handle this matter. Since you are back, this time the chief judge will be up to you. Let Shi'an help you, and Qiu Wei will also close the case in Dongdu before."
Hearing this, Gu Jiusi was stunned for a while, then he subconsciously opened his mouth and said, "But the Yellow River..."
"It's just a few months," Fan Xuan interrupted him, "The Yellow River Luozishang is there, you can go back after the business is done."
Gu Jiusi didn't speak anymore, he thought for a while, and replied, "Yes."
Fan Xuan looked at Ye Shian, and asked Ye Shian a few words, and then said a little about the case, and then looked at the sky: "It's too late now, Gu Aiqing might as well stay with him I have dinner."
Gu Jiusi knew that Fan Xuan wanted to leave him alone, so he agreed. Jiang He and Ye Shian were also sensible.
When they all left, Gu Jiusi stayed in the room, Fan Xuan said nothing and drank tea with his head down.
He looked a little tired. Gu Jiusi seemed to have lost some weight in the past few months. Gu Jiusi saw it and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, take care of your dragon body."
Fan Xuan got this and smiled: "Gu Aiqing has a heart, but when he is old, this body is not something I want to take care of, so I can take care of it."
Speaking, Fan Xuan held the teacup and said gently, "I heard that your daughter-in-law is happy."
Fan Xuan's tone seemed to be the Jiedu envoy from Youzhou, who had nothing to do with his subordinates. Hearing this, Gu Jiusi couldn't hide the thoughts in his heart, and his face was filled with joy: "Yes, there are more than three months."
"The first child is a boy."
Fan Xuan said with some emotion: "It's better to have more boys."
Gu Jiusi tasted these words, and he realized it to some extent. I am afraid that the prince has recently made Fan Xuan dissatisfied. Fan Xuan sighed and said slowly: "Prince has recently changed several teachers, and I am asking him to learn more Confucian classics, but he still doesn't like listening to these teachers, and always opposes me. I originally wanted Zhou Aiqing to be the teacher. Taifu, but Zhou Aiqing was not happy, and the crown prince had a lot of quarrel with me. He and Ye Shian didn't deal with it either..."
Fan Xuan babbled, and while he was talking, he raised his eyes to look at Gu Jiusi and sighed: "You are easy-going, you are Lu Aiqing's beloved disciple, similar to Lu Aiqing, you will treat the prince more in the future. Coax and help."
Gu Jiusi understood, Fan Xuan actually knew Fan Yu's temper, Zhou Gaolang and Fan Yu didn't deal with it, Ye Shian was upright, and Fan Yu didn't like it. But Gu Jiusi was different. Gu Jiusi could play, but he used to be a playboy. If he wanted to coax people, it would be easy. In addition, he worshipped Lu Yong as his master, who is Lu Yong? In this world, there is no flattery that he can't get through. Gu Jiusi and Lu Yongxue, relying on his means, will coax a Fan Yu in the future.
Gu Jiusi pondered quietly, and suddenly understood the reason why Fan Xuan handed over Lu Yong's people to him and matched him and Lu Yong to become master and apprentice, I am afraid that at that time, he had already thought of the future How could Fan Yu use him?
Gu Jiusi thought about it, and slowly said: "The minister is a minister, how can you say that you are coaxing the emperor? It's all based on the facts. Your Highness, don't bury the minister."
"You kid," Fan Xuan sighed, "You have to fight with me like a mirror in your heart. Why do you think I let you stay and try the case?"
Gu Jiusi did not speak, Fan Xuan continued: "Although Lu Yong's people are used by you, they are not your own after all. If you want to stand in the court, you must have your own disciples. Once you have cleared so many people up and down, the imperial examination has to be filled more, this is an unprecedented big test, you have to think carefully when you become the chief examiner."
Gu Jiusi responded, Fan Xuan coughed lightly: "When you do things for others, you have to be careful yourself. I have received a lot of papers from you here. Shen Ming's You said it wasn't your order, and he also came to confess his guilt, but this must not happen twice."
"Your Majesty forgive me."
Gu Jiu thought and knelt down quickly. Fan Xuan went on to say: "Fortunately, the prince suppressed this case. Cheng Jue, the prince is ignorant, but he is a person who cherishes talents."
"This minister understands." Gu Jiusi said hurriedly, "This minister must help His Majesty and the Crown Prince well, go through fire and water, and die."
Hearing this, Fan Xuan seemed to be relieved, and he said calmly, "This time Shen Ming's case, leave it to you."
Gu Jiusi was stunned for a while. Seeing Gu Jiusi startled, Fan Xuan lowered his voice and reminded: "Cheng Jue, you must think about your future."
"But..."
"You're going to be a father," Fan Xuan interrupted him, he said slowly, "Yuru is a good girl, she's been following you, and she hasn't had a good life. , I want you to be safe and sound after running around all day. You are not too young, so you need to think more about everything."
Gu Jiusi didn't dare to speak anymore, at that moment, he was thinking about the child, thinking about Liu Yuru, he suddenly wanted to be slapped hard, his heart beating so hot it hurt , curled up in pain, shivering in the dark.
Fan Xuan patted his shoulder and stood up: "Let's go, let's eat."
Gu Jiusi responded, got up, and went to dinner with Fan Xuan.
It is a great honor to eat with the emperor, but Gu Jiusi ate this meal with a heavy heart.
After eating, Gu Jiusi hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I want to see Shen Ming..."
"Cheng Jue," Fan Xuan raised his eyes, he looked at him quietly, "Think again."
Gu Jiusi did not dare to speak.
Fan Xuan's meaning is too obvious.
He didn't speak any more. After salute, he followed Zhang Fengxiang out. Zhang Fengxiang always waited by Fan Xuan's side. He rarely sent people away in person. He sent Gu Jiusi to the door and said with a smile, "Master Gu doesn't look very happy."
Gu Jiusi smiled reluctantly, Zhang Fengxiang put his hands in front of him, lowered his sharp voice a little, and persuaded: "Master Gu, there are some opportunities that some people can't have for a lifetime. The opportunity has come. , if you hold it, then you will be on the rise. There are things in this world, some people can't keep them, why should they bury themselves, don't you think?"
Gu Jiusi did not speak. After a long time, he stooped slightly and said in a low voice, "Father-in-law said yes."
After he finished speaking, he saluted Zhang Fengxiang and walked out.
It was late at night, and the late autumn in the Eastern Capital had begun to get cold. Gu Jiusi changed into his regular clothes before leaving the palace. At this moment, wearing a blue robe with a jade crown on his head, he walked down the street in despair . He didn't get into the carriage that had been waiting for a long time, and the coachman hid behind the carriage to avoid the cold, so he didn't see Gu Jiusi walking past.
The driver waited for a long time, but did not see Gu Jiusi come out, and finally couldn't help but went up to the soldier guarding the gate: "Everyone, can you see that Gu Shangshu has left the palace?"
The soldier knew the coachman and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Didn't you leave the palace long ago?"
Liu Yuru went to Huarong and Shenxianxiang Pan account, she didn't dare to be too tired, she came back early in the afternoon and waited for Gu Jiusi.
She was still taking nourishing medicine when she heard Yin Hong come in and said anxiously: "Mrs. is not good, uncle is gone!"
These words made Liu Yuru a little stunned, but she was still calm, and hurriedly said: "Why don't you see it? You call the person who reported it, and I will ask in person."
Yin Hong responded and hurriedly let the coachman come in. The coachman knelt on the ground and spoke with trembling, Liu Yuru listened quietly, after a long time, Liu Yuru said: "You didn't see him leaving the palace. , the soldier said the palace?"
The driver responded and said tremblingly: "Mrs. forgive me, it's Xiao's fault, it's too cold, Xiao..."
"Where's the Dark Guard?"
Liu Yuru spoke directly, Yin Hong was stunned for a while, and then said: "I'll let someone find it."
"Start in front of the palace gate and ask someone to find it."
After Yinhong went out, Liu Yuru asked the driver to explain the matter again. After thinking about it, Liu Yuru went directly to the next yard and found Jiang He who was meeting guests.
Jiang He was called out from the playing and singing, and when he saw Liu Yuru, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong?"
"Jiusi is gone, there is no sign of fighting, and there is no news from the dark guard. It should be that he voluntarily does not intend to go home. I want to know what you said in the palace?"
Jiang He was stunned for a while. After a while, he frowned and thought about it seriously: "The rest is nothing, if your Majesty wants to say something that bothers him..."
Jiang He did not go on, after a while, he suddenly said, "Shen Ming!"
Liu Yuru was stunned for a while, Jiang He had a bit of regret in his eyes, and sighed, "I thought Your Majesty was planning to spare Shen Ming, but I didn't expect to be waiting here for Jiusi."
"What does uncle mean?"
Liu Yuru tentatively asked, Jiang He explained: "Shen Ming surrendered himself when he came to the East, saying that he was alone in the matter of killing Wang Siyuan, but His Majesty did not deal with him immediately. I originally thought that His Majesty was planning to open up and deal with it casually, but if Jiusi behaved incorrectly, the only possibility is that His Majesty kept Shen Ming for Jiusi to deal with."
"Why?"
Liu Yuru blurted out, but Jiang He smiled: "Why? Jiusi is the favorite minister that Your Majesty has come across right now. Rongde Jiusi has the slightest flaw in his body?"
After saying this, Liu Yuru immediately understood.
At this time, Yinhong also turned around and said with Liu Yuru: "Madam, someone found it, I heard that the uncle was walking on the street alone, did nothing, and came to this point. "
Liu Yuru didn't speak. After a while, she had someone prepare hot soup and then led them out.
Gu Jiusi walked alone on the street for a long time.
He didn't dare to go back, and was afraid of the dawn.
His brain was dumb, and he felt his spine bent, like a funny soft-footed shrimp, hunched back, ridiculously pinched in his hands.
He kept thinking, just now in the palace, why didn't he speak?
When you go out, why would you say that "Father-in-law is right" to Zhang Fengxiang?
He kept walking with his head sullen, feeling a kind of annoyance that had nowhere to vent came up from his heart.
When Liu Yuru found someone, she saw Gu Jiusi from a distance, he walked forward aimlessly, he lowered his head unconsciously, and seemed to have an indescribable malaise.
But the Gu Jiusi here is completely different from the Gu Jiusi in Xingyang. Liu Yuru could not see the young man who looked like the rising sun with one horse and one horse. .
Liu Yuru felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She took a deep breath and called out, "Jiusi."
Gu Jiusi turned around and saw Liu Yuru not far away.
She was wearing a long pink dress and a white fox fur cloak, holding a lamp and a cloak in her hand, standing not far away.
The light shone a layer of light on her body, Gu Jiusi was stunned, and then saw Liu Yuru come over.
She didn't say anything, just put the lamp in his hand, and then gently and gently unfolded the cloak and put it on him.
The cloak carried her warmth, and the warmth made the blood in his icy limbs flow again.
"I heard that Lang Jun can't find his way home, so I came to pick you up specially."
Liu Yuru spoke, her voice a little hoarse. Holding the lamp, Gu Jiusi quietly looked at the girl wearing the cape for him, and said slowly, "Why are you sad?"
"Today I heard people tell a story," Liu Yuru said, "It makes people feel sad."
"What did you hear?"
"First, I heard the story of Nezha, listening to him cut his bones to return his father and cut his flesh to his mother, and he was very proud."
"You don't have to be sad," Gu Jiusi persuaded her, "He was fine in the end, and he was conferred a god."
"I'm not sad about this."
Liu Yuru fastened the straps, but did not leave. She put her hands in front of Gu Jiusi and lowered her head.
Gu Jiusi quietly waited for her words, and then listened to her: "I'm sad that later they said that Monkey King stole the peach and was chased and killed by the immortals, and he beat him back. After the Prince of Nezha, he defeated five other heavenly kings."
Gu Jiusi didn't speak anymore, he saw Liu Yuru looking up at him, her eyes were clear and transparent, as if she could see everything clearly: "It's all born and raised with a proud fetus, why did it end up in the end? Mortal?"
