The reborn first wife is a male

When the horse-drawn carriage reached the avenue from Pingcheng to the city, the sound of carriages and horses gradually became denser.

An Shaohua raised the car curtain and looked out, only to see many people wearing thick clothes, wanting to enter the city with their families.

"Why are so many people entering the city today?"

"Today is the day for going to the market." Gu Shi lowered his body and glanced at An Shaohua's hand. "The winter in northern Xinjiang is cold and long. Farmers don't grow and vegetation doesn't thrive. People like to go to the market when they have nothing to do in winter."

An Shaohua nodded and looked out with great interest.

Gu Li silently asked Gu Shi with his mouth: "Mutual market?"

Gu Shi smiled and put his index finger on his lips.Gu Cheng immediately frowned.Gu Shi stepped forward and patted his head and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Dad has a sense of proportion."

Gu Li opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

On the contrary, An Shaohua quickly noticed the problem. Some of the people who came to the market were dressed in local clothes in Pingcheng.There are also some people pulling carriages, no one on the carriages is full of goods, and the city guards must be more careful when encountering such people.

An Shaohua took a closer look. There was a fur merchant who pulled a whole load of cowhide, all of which were finished. From the quality and handwork, they didn't look like people from northern Xinjiang.He turned his head to look at Gu Shi, but saw the old god Gu Shi looking at him.

"Father, among the people who came this time, there are also people from the Third Prince, the Li family, the Zheng family, and the Imperial Forest Army."

"As much as he wants, the Zhenbei Army can afford to entertain him."

An Shaohua was still talking, but when he looked up and saw Gu Shi's expression, he knew that he was just worrying. "Is this what the emperor meant?"

"Yes." Gu Shi didn't hide anything. "Those old things in the court are arguing every year, and there is no result every year. Seven years ago, the emperor said that there would be three exchanges every year, 20 days each time. One was from the 25th of the twelfth lunar month to the fifteenth of the first month, and the other was in May. Dragon Boat Festival to May 25th, and one time from the first day of September to the [-]th of September.”

One time was during the Chinese New Year, one time was when there was no harvest, and the other time was after the autumn harvest.The timing of these three exchanges seems to have been deliberated.

"Since the opening of the mutual market, the common people on the border of the two countries have become rich. They have enough food, warm clothes and some spare money. This year's mutual market is especially lively." Gu Shi introduced, and their carriage entered the city.

At the beginning of the construction of Pingcheng, the city was used for garrison and garrison, so the city walls were high and thick, and the urn city was also very grand and strong.Thinking about it, I was also afraid that the enemy would attack with fire.

The city was buzzing with people, the air smelled of fried meatballs, mixed with the sweetness of Tangren, and people's laughter filled his ears, and An Shaohua couldn't help but feel happy too.Gu Cheng's eyes lit up even more excitedly, and he insisted on getting out of the car to play.

"Don't make trouble, rest today, and go shopping early tomorrow morning." Gu Shi made arrangements for Gu Cheng with one sentence.

"Tomorrow I want to go to... Blowing City."

Gu Shi lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, and said, "Go directly to the ancestral hall of the general's mansion. Don't bother if it's cold."

Gu Li glanced at An Shaohua, and An Shaohua suddenly remembered that it was probably because of him that Gu Li was going to blow the city.An Shaohua whispered: "After a few days, let the doctor see that you are fine, and I will go to Chucheng again. I want to pay homage to the ancestors of the Gu family."

Hearing this, Gu Shi looked at An Shaohua with a look of satisfaction in his eyes. "You can go if you want, but Chuicheng is not as prosperous as Pingcheng."

"The bustle and prosperity are all bought by generations of frontier soldiers." An Shaohua said seriously, with Erlang's unique passion in his eyes.

Gu Shi smiled even more happily, and had a new understanding of An Shaohua's brilliant literary talent.Worthy of being a little Tanhua.

While talking, the carriage entered the General's Mansion, An Shaohua jumped out of the carriage, and helped Gu Zhen get down.Gu Li didn't try to be brave, and slowly got out of the car while grabbing his hand.

In the school field ahead, several teams are competing.There was a thin and tall figure in it, and An Shaohua couldn't help but take a few more glances, only to realize that Lu Chen was actually wearing a silver mask, covering half of his face.

What can it cover?An Shaohua thought to himself, everyone who knew him would recognize him.Just as he was thinking, Lv Chen—now called Dan Xin, Dan Xin hooked an eight-foot-long gold silk ring knife from the weapon rack with a deep red handle, which looked very important.Sure enough, when Dan Xin danced the knife, even though he was in a hurry, every time the knife struck out, he felt that he was going to take people out.But Good Risk maintains a balance.

A set of sword skills made An Shaohua frightened, but Gu Shi stepped forward, took the wet towel from the servant's hand, handed it to Dan Xin, and said loudly, "The guard Dan Xin's sword skills have improved again."

Everyone is around to praise.Yes, yes, yes, yes, the guard of Danxin is very good at swordsmanship...

Gu Cheng actually saw Yu Xi among the flatterers, so he stared at him desperately.

Yu Xi didn't understand why Gu Li looked at him like this, so he stepped forward.Gu Cheng took two steps to the side, and the two of them avoided talking to each other in a low voice.

"Brother Xi, don't you dislike Danxin?"

"Hmm. Look at him, is he imitating Uncle Lv Shen?" Yu Xi whispered.

Gu Li followed Yu Xi's eyes and saw that Dan Xin was taking the handkerchief from Gu Shi's hand to wipe his face. After wiping, he turned the handkerchief over and wiped the back of his neck. Finally, he tilted his head and picked out his ears.

"Look, look!" Yu Xi was so angry that he jumped up and down. "He used to learn how to behave like Uncle Lu Shen, but now he pretends to be acquainted and meddles in the brothers' private affairs! You say he is a bodyguard, what is he doing in charge of people's weddings and funerals?" Yu Xi approached Gu Cheng and whispered. : "Could it be that he wants to report all this to the emperor? The emperor still cares about this?"

On the one hand, Gu Cheng was slightly surprised that Yu Xi, who is so careless and careless, knew that Dan Xin was a secret guard sent by the emperor, but on the other hand, he was puzzled that with Yu Xi's temperament, it was always the thing he despised the most to talk about people's faults behind their backs. "Then why don't you tell old man Gu that you have a bad heart, and why do you still say those words with everyone?"

Yu Xi reflected on what he said, and looked at Gu Chen helplessly: "Second son, it's not that I'm talking about you. You also have to think about the general. Gu Feng has been studying in the palace since he was such a high school student. In Yonganjing again. In those few years, the general was miserable without Uncle Lu Shen. Did you see it? You didn’t. At least after the Danxin guards came, the general’s mood was much better. I saw the general’s missing with my own eyes Uncle Lu Shen's appearance, I have also seen the appearance of a loyal guard beside the general, and the general can finally laugh. So..." Yu Xi sighed, and looked at Gu Shi, "I can't make things difficult for the general."

Gu Li inadvertently heard this confession, which made him speechless for a long time.Yu Xi waited for a while to see if he didn't respond, and left first.Only Gu Cheng stood here blankly.

"Liu Guang, what's the matter?" An Shaohua came over and called him, "Father is going to Chucheng, let you and the princess rest here first."

"Oh."

At the end of the hour, the princess was welcomed in by the butler of the General's Mansion with the highest standard of etiquette.Although the female officer who followed the princess kept showing disdain, the princess was very excited.When giving rewards, the voice trembled out of shape.

At noon, pass meals.Only then did Gu Li know that the General's Mansion also had an imperial cook, but it was never used.The whole family doesn't like the flashy dishes of the imperial chef. Now that there is a princess, eating is more than just eating.

The female officer stared at them, delivering meals, testing dishes, serving dishes, and every move must be in accordance with the rules.

An Shaohua was fine, but almost none of Gu Cheng's actions were right.Talking while eating, pointing with chopsticks, picking vegetables directly from the plate without serving them, the chopsticks collided with the bowl and made a sound...

After eating half of the meal, the female officer coughed so much that her voice was almost hoarse.But Gu Zhen didn't change at all.After the meal, Gu Li said in a calm voice, "Princess, if you are a waiter who is not acclimatized or something, you should let him rest. The General's Mansion doesn't even have a waiter for you."

One sentence made the hostess of ceremonies fall backwards with anger.

An Shaohua couldn't hold back a burst of laughter, he wasn't sure if Gu Cheng was deliberately trying to squeeze out the female official, to retaliate against the female official for looking down on him everywhere.

In fact, An Shaohua really thought too much, Gu Cheng didn't think about the timing of the female officer's cough at all, and he didn't think there was a problem with his eating at all.If he knew he would have changed—he would not have changed.If you change it, you won't be the Second Young Master Gu.

"Second son, you should call the princess 'mother'."

Gu Li shrank back a bit, and asked the princess, "Who is this person?"

"The ceremonial mother bestowed by the palace, Mother Ma."

Mama Momo came up to see the salute, and Gu Cheng returned the salute, but there was nothing wrong with it.Seeing that Gu Li had a good attitude, Mother Ma simply made it clear: "Second Young Master, the meal has already been eaten, and you need to be adjusted in terms of etiquette when you are just eating. But the most urgent thing now is to let An Guogong come out." Meet the princess. The old slave wants to..."

"My father went to the military camp." Gu Cheng's face suddenly pulled down.I have never eaten pork, but I have seen pigs running. Back then, An Shaoguang married the princess, and there was a female official in the family, who was in charge of when the husband and wife were married. It was disgusting!Halfway through this mama's words, Gu Cheng's anger rose up. "The third prince was ordered by the emperor to send food and grass for the winter and rewards for the New Year. The mother knows the hard work along the way. My father doesn't have time to listen to you talking about those things."

After finishing speaking, Gu Li was about to leave, but Mama Ma chased after her and said, "The old slave was sent by the emperor to teach An Guogong..."

"You don't need to teach me!" Gu Li yelled so loudly that the servants and servants in the yard were startled, "He still needs you to teach him? He doesn't know? He doesn't know where I came from?"

"Second...Second Young Master!" Madam Ma obviously had never met such a rough-spoken master, and she didn't realize until Gu Li was far away that this An Guogong went to the military camp, and the princess was in the general's mansion in Pingcheng. She finished her errands No, when can I return to Beijing?

When the princess heard Gu Li's words, her face turned pale at first, but soon she blushed again.When Gu Li got annoyed and yelled happily, he walked away, but the princess pursed her lips tightly with tears in her eyes, and she was on the verge of falling.

Qingyue hurriedly stepped forward to support the princess, and was about to speak when the princess waved her hand.

Princess Cheng An frowned, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before returning to her room sadly.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

The Zhenbei Army barracks counted the grain and grass, registered it, put it in the warehouse, and handed it over, and some were busy.

The military camp is stationed on a hill northeast of Chuicheng. The mountain, the city, and the military camp watch each other, and the defense is really exquisite.A city wall was also built from the top of the mountain to both sides, with a watchtower not far away. People can walk on the city wall, and there are archery holes.

The third prince stood at the top of the city, looking at Beiman.The sky is getting late, the boundless grassland is connected to the sky, the sky is bright red, and there are faint wisps of cooking smoke.Looking back, it was time to cook in Chucheng City. Although it couldn't be seen clearly, it felt safe and peaceful. "This is the fireworks in the world." Yin Duo murmured, "Let this city wall guard the fireworks of thousands of families, and they will be safe and happy."

Gu Shi took a step forward and knelt down, and was about to praise him loudly, when Yin Duo waved his hand and said, "Forget about it. Tell me what it is for."

A few feet away from the city wall are intricate trenches, and there are traps in the trenches.Gu Shi gave a detailed introduction to the usefulness of those traps to the third prince and his party, Yin Duo was very excited and praised repeatedly.He said that he wanted to write an excerpt to his father, and please seal it for An Guogong!

Gu Shi hastily declined, saying that it was the soldiers and civilians of Northern Xinjiang who thought of this method, and it was the people of Northern Xinjiang who built the city wall.Gu Shi did not dare to claim credit, but begged the third prince to tell the emperor that the people can pay taxes with labor, so that this fortification can be completed as soon as possible, and it will benefit generations to come.

Yin Duo nodded straightly, and said: "This matter is still subject to Duke Anguo's decision, and I second it. After all, I have neither official position nor rank in the court, and I am not in his position..."

Gu Shi bowed and saluted, and asked the third prince to rest in Gu's mansion in Chuicheng.

On the carriage to Blowing City.

"If this city had such a wall back then, the northern barbarians would not have invaded so easily." Yin Duo whispered with a string of Buddhist beads in his hand.

Li Zan glanced at the Buddhist beads in Yin Duo's hand, knowing that he must be playing with them a lot recently.His Highness the Third Highness always loves to pay respects to the Buddha every time he is in a state of turmoil. First, he copies scriptures and burns sandalwood.

Li Zan has been with Yin Duo for more than ten years, and it is only the third time he saw him holding the Buddha beads. Even his father Li Zhilian was imprisoned, and he has never seen His Highness so troubled.

"Your Highness, what's bothering you recently?"

Yin Duo looked at Li Zan coldly, and Li Zan hurriedly shrank back on his knees.Yin Duo looked away, and did not answer Li Zan's question. Instead, he said, "It's a pity that the city wall is too short now. In time, it will definitely be as strong as gold. At that time, more than a dozen people from the Gu family died, and the entire Zhenbei Army had tens of thousands of soldiers. Daisuke..."

Yin Duo's voice became lower and lower, gradually becoming inaudible.Li Zan didn't prick up his ears to listen hard.The fear and panic in his heart are mixed.

Li Zan's dead man reported that the dark guard who followed them met a guard named Dan Xin as soon as they arrived in Pingcheng that night.And that bodyguard was the hidden bodyguard that the emperor rewarded Gu Shi to personally protect Gu Shi.

He didn't know how much the secret guard knew about his affairs, how much Dan Xin knew, and how much Gu Shi knew.He secretly glanced at the third prince - if the matter is revealed, will His Highness save him?

Li Zan lowered his head and smiled miserably.how come.Two months ago, his father was sent to Zhao Prison by the court, but His Highness never said a word for his father, let alone himself.

"...Subhuti. What do you think? Can you see the Tathagata in person..." Yin Duo still maintained the posture of looking out of the window just now, with the bunch of bodhi seeds coiled in his hand, but his mouth was chattering very quickly Chanting Buddhist scriptures in a low voice.

Li Zan was horrified and looked at Hua Xun.

Hua Xun glanced at Li Zan, then lowered his head again.Li Zan was not given any hints.

Li Zan's heart tightened, he pursed his lips and flinched back a bit.Regardless of how he and Cai Zhongkang are in front of others, Hua Xun is No. 1 beside the Third Highness.

His Highness today is obviously very different from the past.

When I was in the barracks, I was still very calm, but when I climbed the city wall, I was even more energetic and excited.Why did I become so irritable in such a short period of time, and even recited the Diamond Sutra?But Hua Xun didn't give himself a hint.This is probably His Highness's instruction.

His Highness really hated himself.

Li Zan still didn't give up, leaned forward and whispered: "Your Highness, the dead man came to report at lunch time, saying that he followed our hidden guards to Pingcheng, and had a lot of contact with the guards around Gu Shi."

Yin Duo turned his eyes and glanced at him, that glance was emotionless, which made Li Zan tremble all of a sudden.

Yin Duo's heart was in turmoil, and reading any scriptures would not matter.

Just now beside Gu Shi, he saw a thin man wearing a mask. Judging from the attitude of others towards him, he had a high status in the military camp.It was just a meeting. Although Yin Duo felt very familiar, he didn't take it too seriously.It was only after sitting in the carriage that he remembered that the man looked very much like the dead Uncle Lu Shen.

Uncle Lv Shen made a big mistake back then, when Liu picked up the book and submitted it to the imperial case, the emperor suppressed it for several days.

The emperor's grandmother called the father to the palace to persuade him, saying that Lu Chen could not die, and Gu Shi was afraid that if Lu Chen died, he would be divorced from his father.

At that time, the young Yin Duo hid behind the curtain, watching his father and grandmother dismantle the nobles, aristocratic families, and powerful officials at that time, and analyzed them a little bit.The emperor's grandmother said that the Zhenbei army is now the Gu family's army. If the nine generals of the Gu family were still there, they could be divided and placed in various places as deputy.Give more salaries and rewards, and give a few beauties by marriage, and you will win over.But now Gu Jiajun has become a monolith, and he can't move no matter what.

But the emperor insisted on going his own way, insisting that the military law could not be changed.No matter what Emperor Ren's grandmother said, his father was unmoved.

When the news of Lu Chen's death came back, the imperial grandmother just sighed, but the concubine was so frightened that she knocked over the teacup.Yin Duo still remembers that the tea was sprinkled on the table in a weird shape, and the water surface was bulging on the top-quality lacquer.The water flowed very slowly, but it still crossed the edge of the table after all, dripping down.

The emperor's grandmother whispered in her ear: "You useless thing, why are you crying? Lu Chen died as soon as he died, but he was just a courtier! He doesn't remember his identity, and you ran back on the battlefield, and you don't remember your identity either. Why? Why don’t you hurry up and accept your dejected tears! No one has spoiled my grandson!”

The emperor's grandmother loves to read history books when she has nothing to do. She has seen a lot of power changes in the past dynasties.

But Lu Chen was already dead, no matter what, he couldn't pay Gu Shi a alive and kicking Lu Chen.The emperor's grandmother was frightened and called his father to the palace to teach him for a long time.Blame him for being reckless, angry at him for not knowing how to handle powerful officials.A dignitary like Gu Shi must be appeasement-oriented. If he has meritorious deeds, he must be rewarded by the world, and if he has done something wrong, he must be called into the palace and punished secretly.Let the whole world know that the emperor is a benevolent king, and he is willing to sing praises for him.

The emperor was sitting, and the emperor's grandmother was standing, but Yin Duo had the feeling that his father was looking at the emperor's grandmother from above.

"The empress mother has worked hard. Back then, she helped her son ascend the throne and governed. She has worked hard for her mother. Now that the baby has finally grown up and started a career, it is time for her to work hard to support her mother. Mother, don't worry, let's rest."

After the father finished speaking, he got up, saluted, and turned to leave.No matter what the imperial grandmother said and did, she turned a blind eye to it, listened to it as if she didn't hear it, and went away as a child's etiquette.

The emperor's grandmother carefully selected among the clan for many years before she selected Princess Cheng'an, a kind and virtuous woman, and married the princess to Gu Shi.I thought it would be safe for the princess to give birth to a child with the blood of the royal family and the Gu family, and then let this child lead the Zhenbei army.

But who would have thought that Gu Shi would always have a guard who looked exactly like Lv Shen by his side.It can be seen that Gu Shi has never been able to forget Lu Shenbo.Father's move was really wrong.

In fact, when Uncle Lu Shen returned to the camp before the battle, he didn't back down, but to save Gu Zhen.When it was the court, many old ministers came forward to intercede. If the father took the opportunity to forgive, he could still win a good name.Who knows...

There is a folk saying, if you know what happened for three days, you will be rich and honored for 1000 years.If the royal father at that time knew that Gu Shi would keep a person who looked like Lv Shen by his side after so many years, he might have done something else in the first place.

Thinking about the fact that the princess had just arrived, Gu Shi would come to the military camp instead of going back to consummate the house, it was even more worrying.

The more Yin Duo thought about it, the more frightened he became, thinking why did Gu Shi let himself live in Chuicheng while the rest of the people lived in Pingcheng?Thinking of the catastrophe in Chui City decades ago, Yin Duo could only feel a basin of icy water being poured on his head in the freezing cold. It was so cold that he was so painful that he couldn't move his whole body.

He was not sure why his father asked him to take this errand.But no matter what, he didn't want to die.
