In the same boat with the son

Chapter 9 Chrysanthemum meaning

Emperor Chong died in the first year of Yongxi, and Emperor Zhizhi succeeded to the throne. He continued to use the reign name of Yongxi, and changed it to Yuanbenchu ​​in the following year.In the first year of the first year of the Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Zhi called General Ji a domineering general, and later died of poisoning.At that time, Taiwei Li Gu once again proposed to make King Qinghe the emperor, but Marquis Liwu was not yet fifteen, so he married the sister of the current queen mother and the general, and succeeded him as Emperor Huan.

In Sudong Xiaosha, the sky in the evening was gloomy and gray, and it looked like it was about to snow heavily.A gray carrier pigeon fluttered to the window of the study, cooing, pacing back and forth in circles as if impatiently.Li Wei stood in front of the window, took down the letter, his face became darker as he looked down, after reading it, he held the letter in his hands forbearance, stood in front of the window, looking at the gray sky outside the window.The icy wind passed through the open window and blew across Li Wei's hair and body, making the whole room cold and air-conditioned.

Seeing Li Huang's appearance, Lin Xiucong felt worried, and came to Li Huang's side. I took Li Huang's hand and patted it gently.Li Huang's white knuckles relaxed slightly, and he handed the letter to Lin Xiu. Lin Xiu opened it, and the more he looked down, the more frightened and worried he became. Liang Ji used this to slander Li Gu and conspire with him, and put him in prison.Li Gu's student Wang Tiao and others proved Li Gu's innocence. The Empress Dowager Liang released Li Gu. Order not to collect corpses.

Lin Xiu couldn't help feeling disappointed, "Why isn't Lord Li's body buried in peace?"

Li Huang's face tightened, with unspeakable anger and helplessness, "Master Li's two sons have died in prison, and the only youngest son escaped alive, Liang Ji wanted to kill them all, so he used this as bait. "

"Then how is Master Li's youngest son doing now?"

"Someone has taken over and settled down, but I just have to figure out how to collect Master Li's body"

"Mr. Li has many disciples, but the prevailing trend in the world is to exalt righteousness and talk about false fame. Using his disciples to come forward to win the Empress Dowager Liang will not offend her relatives and reduce political factors, but also give Empress Dowager Liang a good reputation. A step that will not chill the hearts of scholars in the world."

Li Huang frowned, "The government is already so bad, what's left is only the heart of immortality, I've been cold for a long time."

Lin Xiu put his hand on Li Huang's forehead, trying to smooth out the wrinkles of worry, and sighed helplessly in his heart.Even if the Han Dynasty is in decline, the government is corrupt, the people's livelihood is difficult, and the world is in chaos, the people in front of them cannot give up their inherent responsibilities and destiny in this era; Wheel, still tightened his own strength and belief, and bravely withstood the crushing of fate.Perhaps no matter in prosperous times or troubled times, it is because of the existence of people who recognize their positions and responsibilities in this way that civilization and history can move forward on the track that has already been determined;

It is always in such a situation that Lin Xiu realizes so clearly that he does not belong to this era.Knowing the trajectory of history and the direction to go, I always think in my heart that no matter how I choose, how everyone struggles, history will not change because of a certain person.Perhaps, someone in this era is still a link in the cause and effect of this era, and I am a complete outsider, a different kind outside the causal chain, since this is the case, why bother to be cannon fodder under the crushing of history.

However, maybe the person in front of me is the cause and effect of all my life, and when I see his frown and frown, I can't stay out of it, even if I get involved in this chaotic world of mortals, I have no choice but to be willing.

Before returning to the case, Lin Xiu watched Li Huang continue to deal with government affairs.The room was dark, lightly raised the lampshade, and lit the candles; the faint light, glowing yellowish, brought warmth and a moment of tranquility that penetrated into the heart, turning around, Lin Xiu found that Li Huang was looking at his own His hands were in a daze again, he glanced at the letterhead in his hand, and sighed again.Lin Xiu took several copies from Li Wei's subordinates, um, one was for tribute items and escort tax matters, one was for business firms' proposals for preferential policies, and several were invitations for banquets with several surnames.

Lin Xiu slid his finger across the smooth surface of the letter, and seeing the unconcealable anxiety in Li Huang's heart, he curled the corners of his mouth with a bit of unspeakable bitterness.A general in the prosperous age, in troubled times, is handsome, and always has a bit of unspeakable and lonely that is contrary to the world; while Li Wei can rule the country and guard the border with martial arts, when the court is dark and the undercurrent is turbulent, he can only live in Anshu County. Although this unspoken loneliness, like the solemn and gloomy low pressure of this winter day, bound Lin Xiu's heart to the extreme.

Lin Xiu sank his heart, raised his eyes, "Mingxuan was anxious, although he never said it clearly, do you want to return to Luoyang as soon as possible?"

Li Ting's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then dimmed inexplicably when he thought of something, "The term of office has not expired, so there is nothing I can do about it."

"I have a way, but I don't know if Ming Xuan is willing to do it."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Let the family hear that my aunt is ill, and Mingxuan wrote a letter to resign and return home to serve her mother. After the Master Li incident, the Empress Dowager Liang will surely agree to show her tenderness, and the scholars will think that Mingxuan is trying to show the general Protest. But these are secondary, Empress Dowager Liang must be able to know Mingxuan's true intention, and given time, she will use it according to her ability when it is reactivated."

"Now that I live in Shu County, everything is beyond my reach, so let's try it."

Lin Xiu stood up, his body stiffened slowly, "It's snowing", and he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief like a release after the weather had brewed.If it is really so densely covered with snow, large snowflakes are spinning and twisting in the air, the world outside the window seems inexplicably crazy and cruel, and it is so warm to live in the house.Snowflakes fell on the bare branches in the courtyard, and some melted and seeped in, seeping into everything, until spring came, and the cold air that had not dissipated could still be felt.

Lin Xiu was leaning against the window, scraping the slightly damp window sill with his fingernails, looking at the crazy and wanton snowflakes, as if his heart was infected with an unknown chill, he suddenly said, "Ming Xuan, call A Jin And A Su, let’s have hot pot tonight.”

——Separation Line Lord——

Lin Xiu ordered the housekeeper to place the desk in the room where he slept. There were relatively few things, and it was close to Zhao Jin and Zhao Su's room, so he could sleep there at night.In the evening, a thick layer of snow has accumulated in the courtyard, the bare branches of the peach trees are exposed in the white, the snow on the courtyard wall is like a white scarf, and there are large bird nests on the tall trees outside the courtyard , the home built in the sky seems so safe and free in a piece of sobriety.

Zhao Jin and Zhao Su usually stay at home in weather like this. Zhao Jin is sometimes responsible for dealing with the affairs brought over from wineries and shops, and Zhao Su is responsible for raising meat at home.Since the last banquet, the names of Ru Mengling and Lin Xiucai have spread like wildfire, and the Guo and Hou families have not dared to suppress it so obviously. Under Zhao Jin's careful management, it is considered to be impressive and prosperous. .

As for Zhao Su, sometimes Lin Xiu thought to himself, in fact, Xiaobai is also a kind of tough, not everyone can be a happy Xiaobai, not to mention sisters like Lin, even Shi Xiangyun's bastard Later, they all have to walk the path of misery.If you really meet Xiaobai, and Xiaobai can still stick to his own path to the end, it will be lamentable. Under the cruel life, you must have a strong enough psychological quality, enough offline brain circuits, and sometimes you need to have enough brain circuits. Strong luck, for example, Zhao Su has a good brother, such a rare species, Lin Xiu can't help but sigh that it is indeed worthy of special protection.

The four of them had already sat together at the desk, which was near the window, with a stove under the table, a mutton hot pot on the table, and various dishes and wines that had been prepared.Zhao Su stared at the hot soup that was slowly bubbling, and kept swallowing, while Lin Xiu filled all four wine glasses with wine.Zhao Jin is blanching some small and easy-to-cook vegetables, and first slowly calms Zhao Su's impatient gluttons.

The candles have already been lit, and the room is swaying with warm light, smudged in the steam of the hot soup; the hot soup is tumbling, tumbling with the hot dishes inside, everything becomes warm, against the whistling snowy night outside, the most beautiful It is easy to breed a kind of cheap satisfaction.

Lin Xiu saw a large piece of meat in Zhao Su's bowl, and Zhao Su buried his face in the bowl, eating happily. Since he came to Shu County, his face was obviously rounded, thinking that Zhao Su might The chubby look is really funny and worried, "A Su, how are you studying in the stone room?"

"It's okay, but the sir is a bit strict."

"Then if Master Li and I want to leave Shu County, does Asu want to leave here?"

Zhao Jin paused when he heard that, Zhao Su raised his face with a look of surprise, the meat caught on the chopsticks fell off, and scratched his head with his paws, "I haven't thought about this problem"; Zhao Jin saw him Brother's reaction, the black lines became more dense.

Lin Xiu tapped Zhao Su's forehead with his chopsticks, "Then think about it."

Zhao Su turned his face away to look at his brother, already made his attitude clear, and his brother will do whatever he decides.

Zhao Jin put down his chopsticks, pondered for a moment, touched Lin Xiu's cup with his cup, "Ah Xiu, I wish you a good journey."

The black line has been successfully transferred, and this rhythm is really weird.Li Huang remained silent, took a sip from his wine glass, and lowered his head to hide his smile.Lin Xiu picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Ajin, do you mean to stay in Shu County?"

Zhao Jin looked at the night outside the window, and tightened his forehead, "Well, after thinking about it for a long time, I still think Shu County is the most suitable place for me and A Su to stay. Hearing this, Li Wei looked at Zhao Jin's expression, as if confirming the seriousness of the sentence, and immediately withdrew his gaze. Lin Xiu naturally noticed Li Huang's movements, and was a little puzzled, but felt that he should It's nothing, "By the way, I can also help you take care of business here."

Lin Xiu thought, this is fine, he will definitely come back in the future, if he can live up to his expectations; maybe the world is boundless, and maybe it will disappear one day, just like the track set by history, but Lin Xiu I have never believed in my heart that a piece of paper in history will really be the end of a living person like myself.With Zhao Jin taking care of it, it must be much more convenient.

"Then Ajin, you can continue to live in this mansion. When we leave, we will only take Steward Li and the attendants around Mingxuan with us. You can keep or dismiss the rest."Although he will come back in the future, but he doesn't know when, Lin Xiu can't help but feel disappointed and very reluctant. After all these years, "If you come to the Central Plains to sell wine in the future, come and visit us. When you come, remember to give me Jianchang salted duck with Zhengyiju," he said, turning around and rubbing Zhao Su's face, "You little bastard, you're almost fourteen, don't just eat and stare blankly all day long, we're leaving, you're going to Be sensible and help your brother, your brother will not be so tired."

The eye circles of both of them were a little red as they said, Shu County and the Central Plains are separated by mountains and rivers. Since then, they must have less gatherings and more separations in the future. Can't help feeling sour.Five or six years of companionship, maybe in the torrent of the sea, for some people and certain things, it is just a passing moment, but for Lin Xiu, for Zhao Jin and Zhao Su, they are very special; since Lin Xiu came to this world, Zhao Jin Zhao Su accompanied him in the strangeness, wandering, and groping, and Lin Xiu also accompanied them in their wandering, confusion and hard work.Special times, special events and circumstances, and the people who accompany you become special because of this.In a lifetime, just as a person's past and mood cannot be copied, so are the people who accompanied him during that time.The more difficult it is to trace and recover, the easier it is for people to leave in vain.The hot hot pot is just like the deserted and sentimental atmosphere outside the window.
