Hello Chang'an Chapter 276

Haofengyuan is the residence of Zheng Guogong and his wife.

After dinner, Duke Wei Qin of Zheng went for a walk in the garden. After entering February, his heart began to bloom. Recently, apart from eating and sleeping, he spent the rest of his time in the garden. .

So when Wei Shuyi came to Haofeng Courtyard, his mother Duan was the only one sitting in the hall.

Wei Miaoqing, who heard that his brother had returned home, followed him closely.

"...How is it? Is there any new news from Suining? Is Xu Zhengye really attacking Luoyang?"

Duan asked hurriedly: "I heard from my second uncle that at the court today, all the officials were talking about Suining's memorandum? Bah, these people have their own agendas! Since I mentioned that I granted Suining the title of The general started to find faults everywhere! In my opinion, they were wronged only in the capital. They should be sent to Luoyang. Anyway, if the rebels cut them off with their swords, you can just let them go! Did they take the opportunity to plot against General Sui Ning and Chang Da? Can you shut up their bad mouths?"

"..." Before Wei Shuyi had time to answer this series of questions, he heard the waves following closely behind -

"When it comes to Mrs. Chang's message, there are a lot of vitriolic words everywhere!" Wei Miaoqing said angrily: "That day, the eldest husband of the Wu family also said something in public in Dengtai Tower. Mrs. Chang's message read It's not orthodox enough, every word and every sentence is just arrogance. It's just a propaganda, it's obviously to enhance his reputation, but it's praised and circulated everywhere. It can be seen that the current atmosphere of the literary world is really worrying, which makes him extremely disappointed..."

He also said: "He has also written an article, which is quite orthodox. It is so orthodox that it makes people hold their noses and cannot read it. As soon as the article is opened, the sour smell can spread out of the capital! If it is crumpled and thrown in, In the chicken coop, the chickens will be so smoked that they will burst into tears and will no longer be able to lay eggs!"

Wei Shuyi went to bring the tea cup: "This Mr. Wu Dalang is also the biological eldest brother of the girl from the Wu family. If your vicious words reach the ears of the girl from the Wu family, be careful that they will not take you with them again in the future."

"These exact words were said by Sister Wu herself!"

Wei Shuyi: "..."

"The elder of the Wu family had made a lot of nonsense in Dengtai Tower. After drinking two ounces of wine, he went back home and went crazy. He actually ran into Sister Wu's study and found Mrs. Chang's deeds book. In front of the servants, My son, I tore him into pieces!" Wei Miaoqing gritted his teeth when he said this.

Wei Shuyi hissed lightly: "This is considered a violation of heaven's rules."

"Sister Wu returned home, and while he was drunk and falling asleep, she had people dig out all his sour poems and sour paintings, light a fire in his courtyard, and burn them all!"

"He was so drunk that he jumped out. He was so angry that he cried loudly and passed out. Mrs. Wu had people pinch him in the middle of the body. After pinching him to wake up, he was thrown into the ancestral hall and forced to kneel down."

Looking at the poetry and picture album that had been reduced to ashes, Mrs. Wu turned around and praised his granddaughter Wu Chunbai - it was well burned. He had wanted to burn it for a long time.

Wei Shuyi put down the tea cup and sighed: "Mr. Wu is very righteous."

Mrs. Duan frowned and looked at her careless son, and patted the table twice: "What are you talking about now? Where is the question I asked you just now? You can answer it!"

Wei Shuyi had a headache, but upholding his filial piety, he still answered them one by one - it was him. If anyone else were to be his mother's son, it would be difficult to remember what she asked.

Finally, he said: "I just hope that Bianzhou can hold on for a little longer and hold off Xu Zhengye's army. When Xuance's army arrives, Luoyang City will not be lost."

"If Luoyang City is saved, will Mrs. Chang and General Chang not be convicted?" Wei Miaoqing asked the question that concerned him most.

"It can only be said that if there is nothing wrong with Luoyang City, there will be no serious crime." Wei Shuyi said: "But if Xuance's army protects Luoyang, the credit will go to the imperial court. At that time, it will be unfavorable to use troops to defend Luoyang, causing Luoyang to be in danger." I'm afraid it's hard to escape the crime of falling into the hands of rebels."

Not only did the court want to accuse her, but the people in the world who regarded her as the reincarnation of a general star also wanted to "accuse" her with that appeal.

Wei Miaoqing became anxious: "Then how can we get rid of the guilt?"

"There is only one possibility." Wei Shuyi said: "Unless she can kill Xu Zhengye with her own hands as she said in her confession."

"As soon as Xu Zhengye dies, the rebel army will definitely be defeated. By then, not only will she have no fault, but she will have merit, and naturally there will be no more accusations in the court."

When big words come true, they are not big words, but great achievements.

Wei Miaoqing frowned tightly: "... According to my brother, is it possible that Mrs. Chang can kill Xu Zhengye?"

"Based on the current known situation..." Wei Shuyi shook his head: "This is not possible."

Xu Zhengye had already passed Xuzhou, but she was still pursuing her from behind. It would be difficult to catch up, let alone cross thousands of troops to kill Xu Zhengye?

Xu Zhengye wouldn't give her this chance either.

Even Xu Jun did not need to conquer Luoyang, but only needed to conquer Bianzhou... Bianzhou would defend it according to the order. Once there were tragic casualties, her crime would be determined.

"...How could this child be so careless? Why did he have to act like a hero and write such an essay, giving others the opportunity to make a fuss!" Duan was worried: "Everyone said that Xu Zhengye was the target of her essay. He went to Luoyang, so it is not her fault, but it becomes her fault! "

Wei Shuyi thought without saying a word. Did she really have no expectations for the current situation?

"Then what should we do?" Wei Miaoqing was so anxious that she started gibbering: "...It's time to rain down a fire from the sky to stop Xu Zhengye and the others, so that Mrs. Chang can catch up and chop him with a sword!"

Wei Shuyi looked at her worriedly: "...How about you go and pray to the Buddha?"

Wei Miaoqing's expression perked up and she stood up immediately: "Yes...I'll burn incense right now!"

Seeing his sister leaving so solemnly, Wei Shuyi rubbed his temples.

If one day, his sister really became a crown princess, or even the mother of a country, he really couldn't believe what a spectacle it would be.

If faced with competition for favor in the harem, she would probably choose between being mean and careless. Between being framed and being framed, choose to show up.

Faced with such a daughter, Duan was rarely silent for a moment.

Wei Shuyi signaled Changji to close the hall door.

Duan subconsciously looked at her son who suddenly became cautious. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Wei Shuyi speak from the front: "It is not impossible for Mrs. Chang to kill Xu Zhengye."

"Just as no one believed it before, she could actually kill Ge Zong and Li Yi with her own hands." Wei Shuyi said: "She can always do things that others think are impossible..."

"Has mother ever thought about why this is?"

Duan looked at him puzzled for a moment: "Everyone in the world knows this, is it because he is born with generals and talents?"

"But from my son's point of view, the talent that can truly amaze the world should be glimpsed at a young age, rather than suddenly appearing one day sixteen years later." Wei Shuyi said.

Duan was startled.

Wei Shuyi said slowly: "I guess the source of Mrs. Chang's 'talent' may be that she has experienced things that ordinary people can't imagine."

Duan was confused when she heard this: "What could that be?"

Wei Shuyi shook his head: "Ordinary people can't imagine that although my son is very human, he couldn't find the answer for a while."

"..." Mrs. Duan frowned and thought for a moment: "Or...as mentioned in the slogan, the guidance of the savior immortal?"

This sounds very absurd, but at this moment, Wei Shuyi narrowed his eyes slightly...Is he an immortal?

"My mother once read to His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess Chongyue, so I know the former Crown Prince quite well... In my mother's opinion, does Mrs. Chang look more like the eldest princess, or does she look more like the former Crown Prince?"

This question was so sudden that Duan's eyes trembled: "Why do you ask like this suddenly?"

Wei Shuyi saw her reaction in his eyes: "I once heard that General A Dian say that Mrs. Chang is very much like the former Crown Prince, very similar."

Duan's breathing stopped for a moment, and many chaotic pictures began to appear in his mind.

Things that she had automatically marveled at in the past and attributed them to "fate" suddenly changed direction at this moment and rushed towards another exit.

"Did mother think of something?"

"I..." Mrs. Duan wanted to speak, but she couldn't explain too carefully. After all, she couldn't expose His Highness's secrets, so all the clues were omitted, leaving only one incomparable saying: "Then if you say so... would it be possible? It could be that he is possessed by the former Crown Prince!"

No wonder she made such assumptions, after all, she was a complete theist!

This absurd speculation that had been lingering in his mind made Wei Shuyi's breath stop for a moment.

Outsiders only say that he has no resemblance to his mother, but there is one thing that has made him exactly the same as her since he was a child, and that is his fear of ghosts.

The prerequisite for fear is faith.

I believe it is possible for such things to exist in this world.

Wei Shilang, who had always remained as steady as an old dog even when Mount Tai collapsed, now forced himself to calm down and asked, "Can mother tell me the basis for such a guess?"

He had just seen his mother, who rarely used her brain, showing an air of rapid brain activity.

Duan's expression was already a little flustered: "Mother knows some of the old habits of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince... When I thought about it just now, I felt that it fits perfectly!"

For example, was the box she dug out really just a dream from His Highness...or was His Highness right in front of her? !

This guess made Duan almost faint.

Wei Shuyi still wanted to seek proof: "What are the old habits? Mother, can you tell me more about them?"

Duan said categorically: "No!"

She was already so confused that she had to keep the secret secret for His Highness, but her disgusting son was still asking questions. Her mind was already on fire!

Faced with her son's confusion about whether it was her own family, she simply said bluntly: "In short, just listen to me when I say it's appropriate. Don't ask about anything else! There are some things I can't express to you clearly, so I just I have sworn not to leak any private matters involving my old friend!”

He said simply and rudely: "If you don't want your mother-in-law to be struck to death by lightning, you have to hold a funeral tomorrow at home, so don't ask any more questions!" "...?" Wei Shuyi rarely showed an expression as if he was being tortured.

Mrs. Duan no longer cared about his life and death, and began to walk up and down the hall holding the handkerchief: "How could it be like this? Is it true that there is such a thing as resurrecting a corpse...are those words in the book...actually true?"

Hearing the words "borrowing corpses to bring back souls", Wei Shuyi couldn't help but think of some of the words he heard when he interrogated the kidnapper couple in Hezhou.

- "It looked like it was dead... but suddenly it came back to life!"

- "Monster! It must be a monster!"

Those words that he didn't take seriously at the time suddenly made him have a completely different state of mind at this moment, and he was in a cold sweat.

Wei Shuyi swallowed slowly, raised his sleeves, and slowly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

After an unknown amount of time, the hall door was pushed open with a creak. Both mother and son were frightened, with pale faces, looking toward the door in horror.

Zheng Guogong, who was humming a little tune, walked in and was startled when he saw this: "...What's wrong?"

Duan: "You...why are you pushing the door open!"

Zheng Guogong looked innocent, this is his yard!

He did not refute, but chose to accept the situation and asked uneasily: "But what happened?"

Why do both my wife and my son, who has always been calm and collected, look like they have seen a ghost?

"No...nothing." Wei Shuyi stood up, forced himself to salute his father: "Father and mother had rested earlier, and my son resigned."

"this…"

When Zheng Guogong looked at his son who was walking away in vain, his heart rose in his throat. Even Zi Gu was like this, and he still said "nothing happened"?

"Madam..." Although he was shaking himself, he still supported the trembling Duan, helped her to the inner room, and asked in a trembling voice: "Madam, tell me the truth, is it Zi Gu?" Did he... commit any serious crime of confiscating his family and exterminating his family? "

Although he is an elegant person who can only appreciate flowers... okay, he admits that he is a loser, but a loser also has the right to know, right?

Duan, who was speechless, pushed him away, staggered towards the bed, buried her head between the soft pillows, and burst into tears.

Zheng Guogong froze on the spot, with only two words left in his mind - it's over.

Wei Shuyi, who was regarded by his father as having "committed the grave crime of confiscating his family and exterminating his clan", left the Haofeng Courtyard and felt a coldness coming from behind him from time to time.

"You..." He looked at Changji beside him: "You walk behind me and keep an eye on me."

Changji glanced behind him subconsciously. What did Lang Jun ask him to look at?

He was about to ask, but his husband said cautiously: "Don't ask anything."

Changji: "...Yes."

Wei Shuyi walked a few steps and suddenly stopped when he passed a fork in the road.

After a while, he changed his route.

"...Brother?" In the Buddhist hall, Wei Miaoqing, who was kneeling in front of the Buddha statue with great piety, was surprised to see someone coming: "Brother is also here to ask the Buddha to send down fire from heaven?"

"...No." Wei Shuyi said as calmly as possible: "I just suddenly wanted to burn incense."

Wei Miaoqing understood, blinked at him, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, are you here to pray for Mrs. Chang's safety?"

Hearing those three words, Wei Shuyi was so excited that he almost dropped the incense in his hand.

Wei Miaoqing looked at him teasingly and said that she didn't like Mrs. Chang. She was obviously more nervous than anyone else.

With this in mind, Wei Miaoqing looked at her brother with a look that said, "Let's see how long you can fight back."

For the first time, Wei Shuyi didn't care to feel the eyes of the people around him.

After lighting the incense and leaving the Buddhist hall, Wei Shuyi's mood calmed down a little.

Incense is really useful…

He so comforted himself.

So, looking as usual, he went back to the residence to bathe and change clothes. He also handled official duties for half an hour, and then returned to the bedroom, put on his clothes and lay down to rest.

I just told the boy: "No need to turn off the lights, I still have uses..."

He added: "Everyone is asked to take turns guarding the outer room and not to leave."

The boy didn't dare to ask more about the reason, but he became wary in his heart. After Lang Jun said this, could he have a premonition that there would be an assassin in the night?

The boy didn't dare to be careless, so he immediately went down to arrange the matter, and specially found the strongest nurse to guard him.

Wei Shuyi lay on the bed, tossing and turning until late at night. He finally closed his eyes, then opened them again and sat up.

wrong…!

If she was resurrected by His Highness the former Crown Prince, then...

Of course, the possibility of such strange things happening is very rare. Zi Fu said that strange things can cause chaos. He just said, if, if, it happens...

If it is true, then she... "she" contains the soul of a man? !

man!

He actually treated a man...?

Wei Shuyi sat frozen for a long time, his expression changing as if he had been struck by lightning.

Immediately, he felt that he should not bear such a tragic helpless feeling alone, so he pulled another person out - this matter... Cui Ling'an, does he know?

He even wanted to write a letter to Cui Ling'an immediately, the kind that was urgent at 800 miles!

The Chunwei exam is divided into three sessions, each lasting three days, for a total of nine days.

Before the end of spring, Cui Ling'an, who was far away in the Anbei Protectorate, did receive an urgent and secret letter from the capital.

To be precise, it's a secret message.

On the same day, Cui Jing secretly left the northern border, led his light cavalry, and rushed to Hedong Road, all the way south.

"Speaking of which... how did Governor Cui expect in advance that there would be a secret order for him to leave the northern border?" After Cui Jing left, Qin Duhu asked the reporter next to Cui Jing in confusion.

Governor Cui left suddenly without a word of explanation.

However, the reporter's office next to Governor Cui quickly came over. Only then did Governor Qin know that it turned out that Governor Cui had already arranged his affairs after leaving the northern border in detail, and he only asked the reporter's office to relay the arrangements.

The reporter also shook his head.

Yes, how did the Governor predict the future?

Is it possible to predict the location of the Holy Will even though we are thousands of miles away? Or...we have already made preparations to help the girl from the Chang family?

However, Cui Jing had only been away for five days when one of his companions, a light cavalryman, was injured and turned back. It was extremely difficult to support him and he fell off his horse when he returned to the Anbei Protectorate.

After hearing the news, the Protector of Qin arrived quickly and saw the light cavalryman being helped into the mansion in the front yard.

When Qin Duhu saw this, his face tightened, and he hurriedly stepped forward to support the light cavalry.

"Qin Duhu..." The cavalryman was seriously injured. When he saw Qin Duhu, he finally spoke with difficulty, "We... encountered an ambush."

Protector Qin's expression changed drastically: "How could it be...that Governor Cui would..."

"Grand Governor, something happened..."

After saying this, the cavalryman completely fainted.

Qin Duhu's face turned pale and his body became stiff for a moment.

Something big is going to happen now!
