That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 226 Pear garden pear blossoms bloom again

  The sun is slowly rising, and the streets of Tongyang County are already crowded with people, but the business firm in Qixiufang is not open today, and dozens of hundreds of disciples are ready to go.

  In the deep courtyard of the back house, Mrs. Gu was holding a letter, looking at the scrawled handwriting on it, and said in a low voice: "Senior sister, the sad wind is gone. He said that he is going to pursue his own happiness."

  Gongsun Linglong said speechlessly: "Twenty years ago he also said that he was going to pursue happiness. I think he is used to wandering. I just don't know how many years will be until the next meeting."

   Mrs. Gu shook her head helplessly, and said: "After so many years, I still have that foolish personality. Others at his age have already become fathers."

  Gongsun Linglong also smiled helplessly, and suddenly said: "By the way, that Miss Mu who helped you yesterday is leaving."

   Mrs. Gu hurriedly followed Gongsun Linglong out of the room with Xiao Shitou, just in time to meet Mu Lixian who was about to go out, and hurriedly shouted: "Miss Mu, are you leaving?"

  Mu Lixian turned his head and said lightly: "Well, thank you for the hospitality, there will be a date later!"

Gongsun Linglong looked at Mu Lixian, and said earnestly, "Miss Mu, you are a descendant of Mingjian Villa, and you revealed your identity yesterday, I am afraid that Cihang Jianzhai and Gu God Church will not be good for you, otherwise you will come to Qixiu Square."

  Mu Lixian said lightly: "Thank you for your concern, but, no need, I have my own considerations, and you don't have to thank me. The action yesterday was not to save you, but to revenge. It just happened to be the same enemy."

   Mrs. Gu said slowly: "Anyway, Miss Mu, you have saved our mother and child, if there is anything you can help, just say it."

  Mu Lixian shook his head and refused: "No, I have my own plans. I'm going to the capital to deal with some things, so let's go!"

The little stone standing next to Mrs. Gu tilted his head, bit his finger, and suddenly laughed and said: "Sister Mu, you are going to the capital, my brother is also in the capital, and he is also very handsome. How is sister-in-law?"

  As soon as Xiao Shitou finished speaking, Mrs. Gu hurriedly said: "Miss Mu, children don't know how to speak seriously, so don't be offended!"

Mu Lixian shook his head, turned around and walked out, with a little gleam in his eyes, and sighed in a low voice: "Master Wushuang... If I am really a daughter, it doesn't matter if I marry him, it's just a pity... "

  …

Dark green wood protruded from the corner of the wall, and the wall was covered with green vines as thick as fingers. Through the cracks in the green vines, the original grayish-yellow wall could be faintly seen. A dense green forest with lush branches and leaves was outside the cliff in the distance. In Lantian County, not far from Chang'an City, there is a lake called Bi'an Lake, and on the other side of the lake is a mansion with the word "Gu Mansion" written on it.

Late spring is approaching summer, the temperature is gradually heating up, there is a slight breeze, caressing the green leaves, like a green sea sun, the gazebo is built in this bamboo forest, the rustling bamboo leaves are rustling, there is a young man in white Sitting in the pavilion, playing the piano gently, the sound is sweet.

This is the mansion that Emperor Xia rewarded Gu Qingci. It is in Lantian County outside the capital, and Gu Qingci is now settled in as a son of Lantian County. In the past few days, many guests have come and gone to congratulate him on moving to his new home. Gu Qingci was not used to these scenes, but fortunately the housekeeper assigned to him by Emperor Xia was a shrewd person. Gu Qingci called him Lao Song, an old man in his sixties. It is said that he also served as a housekeeper for a high official before. He was fired for some reason, so he came to Gu Qingci.

After a few days, Lao Song took a group of servants and maids to entertain the guests, most of them were officials from the court, or they sent their servants to give gifts and congratulations, and there were some who wanted to curry favor with this newcomer. However, to these people's disappointment, Gu Qingci has been declaring that the city is sick and seeing no visitors, and only a few people have seen Gu Qingci.

  For four or five days in a row, the Bi'an Lake finally became clean. Only Gu Qingci's mansion is here in the area around the Bi'an Lake. Unless there are visitors, no strangers will come.

  There is a bamboo forest in the mansion courtyard, which is Gu Qingci's favorite place. Whenever he has free time, he comes here to play the piano or read books.

  However, to Gu Qingci's disappointment, he thought he would be free today, but unexpectedly, another group of guests came.

  The seventh prince Tang Moyi and the third princess Tang Yun.

   Gu Qingci does not welcome these two people, but he is not happy to see them either.

The bamboo grove covered the sun, and the breeze was pleasant. Even the chirping of the cicadas did not make people irritated. Gu Qingci pressed the piano with both hands, stood up slowly, and said: "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness Princess is visiting, and the humble house is full of shaggy plants. Fai!"

Gu Qingci's tone was very flat, so flat that he was a little repulsive. Tang Yun frowned slightly, but Tang Moyi didn't seem to be able to see it, and said with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Gu moved to a new house. I just wanted to pay a visit, but I was a little late due to busy work, so don't blame me!"

  Gu Qingci poured a cup of tea for the two of them respectively, and said lightly: "In the wild land, please do what you want!"

   This is already a blatant see-off, even Tang Moyi couldn't continue to sit down, stood up and said: "In addition to visiting the door today, this king is also sending invitations to Mr. Gu."

Tang Moyi handed over an invitation card and said, "Tomorrow, there will be a poetry meeting in Lihuayuan, young talents from the Three Kingdoms will be there, I hope Mr. Gu can also come and have a look, everyone really wants to see Mr. Du Wushuang's demeanor. "

  Gu Qingci took the invitation and put it on the stone table, said lightly: "I will definitely visit tomorrow!"

  Tang Moyi smiled slightly, and said: "Then I won't bother Mr. Gu anymore, take your leave!"

  …

  In the capital city, at the residence of Qixiufang, a letter arrived.

  Elder Mu opened the envelope, and after reading the letter, a smile appeared on his face. He called Tsing Yi to the room, and asked, "Tsing Yi, Gu Qingci moved to a new house, have you visited?"

  Tsing Yi shook his head and said: "I haven't gone yet. I heard that he is pretending to be sick to see guests behind closed doors. I don't want to disturb him. I plan to go after he is free in two days."

Elder Mu smiled slightly and said, "Well, there will be a poetry meeting in Lihuayuan tomorrow, and he will definitely be invited. Didn't we in Qixiufang also receive the invitation letter? Let's go together at that time, I also want to go to see some things I have met this unparalleled young man."

  Qing Yi frowned, and said in surprise: "Elder Mu, didn't you say that it's enough for me to make friends with Gu Qingci, isn't it necessary for you?"

  Elder Mu suddenly smiled slightly, and said: "That was before, now that I'm an aunt of an adult family, it doesn't make sense if I don't even get to know my nephew!"

  In a post station, Princess Meng Qi of the Kingdom of Yan holds a secret letter in her hand, which reads: Gu Qingci will go to Lihuayuan to participate in a poetry meeting tomorrow!

  …

The pear garden, the reason why it is called the pear garden, is because of the endless pear blossoms here. From a distance, the pear trees look like fountains emerging from the ground, and the snow-white pear blossoms are the endless stream of pear blossoms. Under the reflection of the sun, under the blowing of the spring breeze, the waves dance like jumps, white as snow and silvery.

When Gu Qing resigned and came to Lihuayuan, there were already many people here. Everyone here was high-spirited, with feather crowns and hair tied, with folding fans. Kind of noisy and random.

Gu Qingci was picked up by someone sent by Tang Moyi, and he walked directly through the outside to an attic in Lihuayuan. At this time, the spring was warm and the grass was growing, and the pear blossoms were disturbed by the spring breeze. The picture was extremely beautiful, almost hundreds of More than a few young scholars either leaned on the railing with a smile, or walked around the lake with a chuckle, or walked together. This is the second place for youthful loyalty.

Of course, the most indispensable thing for this kind of poetry meeting is those fair and modest ladies, but scholars pay more attention to etiquette, and those ladies who are invited to come are basically in the house, looking at the scenery outside through the window, or watching the scenery outside. , or people, between young men and women, is the most beautiful time.

  The initiator of this poetry meeting is Tang Moyi, the Seventh Prince of Xia Kingdom, who naturally wanders among many young talents like stars holding the moon.

At this time, a servant walked up to Tang Moyi and said a few words softly. Tang Moyi had a look on his face and said in a clear voice: "Everyone, Gu Qing, the unparalleled son, has resigned. You talents are willing to go and have a look at his demeanor." ?”

   As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion here. If the most legendary person in Tiance's sixteen years was none other than Mr. Wushuang, people in the Jianghu listened to legends, while scholars listened to strength of character and talent.

Ever since Gu Qingci became famous, his previous poems have been dug up one by one. In addition, the fact that the Golden Luan Palace played the right thing has become the object of discussion and admiration of many young talents. During this period of time, if It wasn't that Gu Qingci announced that he was sick, so I don't know how many people will visit him.

Since ancient times, literature has never been the first and martial arts has never been second. While admiring Gu Qingci, there are also many people who want to compete with Gu Qingci. However, these people are only a minority. After all, Gu Qingci's achievements are real. In fact, if the gap is too large, there will be less jealousy and more lamentation.

As Tang Moyi walked out, basically everyone in the attic came out. At the same time, those ladies or talented women in the attic also made a fuss. In desperation, Tang Yun had no choice but to take Yingying Yanyan A group of women went downstairs.

  …

A group of people by the lake came out mightily from the attic, some of them were slim beauties, or young talents, so many people were together, the noise became chaotic very quickly, Gu Qingci could see this majestic team from a distance , the sound of silk and bamboo resounding among the pear trees suddenly lost its melody, and there were many girls' surprise cries faintly interspersed.

As Gu Qingci got closer and closer, the pear blossom forest gradually became quieter. Under the rain corridor and beside the red wall, there was gradually no sound, only the sound of footsteps step by step, which belonged to only one person, and each step was extremely stable. The young man in white finally slowly appeared in front of everyone.

  Gu Qingci stood under the pear tree, frowning slightly, saw Tang Moyi and Tang Yun in the front, and said: "Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness Princess!"

  Tang Moyi smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Young Master Gu, you are finally here, we have been waiting for you for a long time!"

  Gu Qingci actually didn't like such a big commotion, but at this time, it wasn't up to him to say it, so he could only bow his hands to a large group of people in front of him: "Good morning, everyone!"

   It was quiet for a while, and finally someone returned the salute: "Morning, Mr. Gu!"

   Followed by a wave of greetings one after another.

  Master Wushuang's reputation was so great that it was difficult for Gu Qingci to be casual, so he followed Tang Moyi into the attic, and after a short period of silence, the discussion resumed.

  …

Gu Qingci actually came earlier, but with his arrival, the first climax of the poetry meeting was ignited. Soon, more people came one after another, but they were all young people who came by invitation. Jun or some talented ladies and the like.

What made Gu Qingci more satisfied was that he did not meet the legendary people who jumped out to question him and insisted on him composing poems or playing the piano on the spot. After all, these people were either the children of big families, or they were really talented. People, it is impossible for anyone to do this, even if they have other thoughts in their hearts, it is impossible to express them.

  The second climax is the arrival of Wu Yu, Prince Wu.

For Wu Yu, Gu Qingci had a deep feeling. From the first time he saw Wu Yu, he understood that there is a kind of person in this world who has a certain special charm. , at first glance, you will always see him first, and then you will be convinced.

Wu Yu was wearing a very ordinary robe, and there were only a few students from the Imperial Academy of Wu Kingdom behind him. He walked in front, his footsteps were gentle, and he walked into the attic silently, instantly taking away all eyes, even Gu Qingci The same is true here, the pride of disdain for the world does not need to be displayed.

The handsome eyebrows and eyes are not as delicate as Gu Qingci, but they always seem to make people feel very comfortable. With the light of the sky shining, he just appeared in the sight of everyone. First, he greeted Tang Moyi. It's the official greeting.

Afterwards, Wu Yu put his gaze on Gu Qingci, smiled faintly, and said, "Brother Gu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much. I was so touched by what you said a few days ago. I have a destiny today, and I hope to listen to your advice again." !"

  Gu Qingci stood up and said slowly: "Brother Wu is serious, and Qingci also benefited a lot from listening to your advice that day. It is an honor for Qingci to have the opportunity to discuss with each other again!"

Wu Yu grinned suddenly, and said: "Then let's talk about it, come, come, let's sit together, and speaking of it, I told Brother Gu last time that the ground under our feet may be a ball. Interest, as well as the universal gravitational force, I also find it quite interesting..."

Seeing Wu Yu who was sitting next to him on the donkey downhill, and his eagerness for knowledge, Gu Qingci was stunned, not only Gu Qingci was stunned, Tang Moyi was also stunned, he was ready Waiting for Wu Yu to make a move, and then he saw that he was ready to make a move, but Wu Yu actually directly abandoned his Wu country student, which caught Tang Moyi a little by surprise.

On the other hand, those students from Wu Kingdom shook their heads helplessly, and found a place to sit down. They also wanted to remind their prince to pay attention to the influence. After all, this was a negotiation between several countries, but they also knew that it was useless. The prince's character, if he speaks out, he will make himself boring, so no one speaks.

  The talents who were so nervous that their swords were on edge were in various emotions, and continued to drink and have fun. Not long after, someone shouted outside: "Princess Yan, the son-in-law has brought the talents of Yan!"
