Yutai Bi

Chapter 309 Going Home 1
In a trance, the Xuande Hall was bustling for a while, and then quieted down again.Gaozong woke up suddenly, opened his eyes, Empress Wu happened to stop her hands, and said softly: "Seeing that the emperor is uncomfortable, my concubine rubbed it for you."

Before Gaozong asked about the two prime ministers and six ministers.Empress Wu picked up a piece of paper and said softly to him: "It's the end of the year, and the Minister of the Ministry of Households has written a letter to ask to distribute rice grains to the people in Beijing..."

Each minister's report, how to deal with it, is clearly stated.

"Which one the emperor thinks is inappropriate, the ministers and concubines will draft a new order."

"So, very good."

Gaozong sighed.

Empress Wu decreed to change Longzhou to Langzhou.At the same time, ten beauties were given to King Teng.

"My lord, Concubine Cen has already settled down. The three new young masters are all happy."

The banquet in the main hall was in full swing, and King Teng said casually, "Doctor, please take care of me."

Mrs. Xu responded and arranged for the female officer to do it.Seeing that King Teng was still lacking energy, he said in a low voice: "Master Yuan Tianshi is here."

King Teng's eyes lit up, and he gritted his fists: "Invite him to Wendaotai."

The banquet lasted from noon to dusk.It is estimated that the old Taoist was half full drinking the wind at Wendaotai, so King Teng called the shoulder chariot to carry him over.

The snow was floating in the sky, and it was melted by the warmth of the hot spring before it hit the ground.Slowly soaked a side of bluestone.Yuan Tiangang, with a fluttering white beard, sat peacefully on the futon.Looking at it from a distance, it seems that he is comprehending the way of heaven.

King Teng got off his chariot, waved back and forth, and walked over.

Yuan Tiangang was overjoyed, and nodded reservedly: "My lord."

King Teng sat across from him, and looked at him with a half-smile: "I heard that the Heavenly Master chose the auspicious acupoint on Wulipo."

After his death, King Teng was still alive, and the auspicious point was still taken care of by King Teng.Otherwise, how could he be willing to drink the wind all night on this mountain top?Yuan Tiangang said seriously: "Langzhou is a place with excellent geomantic omen. The old Taoist enters the auspicious acupoint here, and can get rid of his body and enter the immortal way early."

"Since that's the case, let's meet this king before the celestial master becomes an immortal." King Teng said solemnly.

If the test was good, King Teng allowed him to be buried in Wulipo after his death.If the test is not good, he can dig the grave and open the coffin.Yuan Tiangang had a well-thought-out plan, and calculated with his fingers: "What does the lord want to test?"

"Good or bad."

"Langzhou is the auspicious place of the prince."

King Teng laughed: "Before you said that Cen Sanniang was the noble person I was destined for. This king didn't think that she solved the disaster for this king. But this king is tired by her, and the immortal master is not sure."

Yuan Tiangang took advantage of his wit: "There is a moon tonight, and my lord can get a glimpse of the secrets at the Wendao Terrace. If the old way is not accurate, the lord can go to Wulipo to find an old way to vent his anger."

Taoist robe fluttering, Yuan Tiangang left in a chic manner.

King Teng stayed for a while, then shook his head to give up.

After leaving the palace garden, looking back, the setting sun hangs on the top of the mountain, before sinking, dyeing the greenery of Yutai Mountain with a touch of magnificence.Yuan Tiangang rubbed his hungry stomach and hummed: "Du Yansui, if King Teng wants to dig up the old Taoist grave, the old Taoist will turn into a ghost and ask you to settle the score!"

The night was getting darker, and a bright moon in the sky was clear, reflecting the stone platform like green.

Standing on the stone platform, King Teng looked up at the waterfall, and when he bowed his head, he saw the shadow of a moon looming in the mist of water.If you look closely, there seems to be brilliance shining.King Teng walked into the water and picked up a jade pendant.Suddenly he remembered that year when he saw Wu Meilai standing on the wooden porch.

At that time, he was angry and sad because she had won the emperor's jade pendant.At this time, this jade pendant reminded him of the past in Tai Chi Palace.

Finally the woman he loved.He couldn't bear to let her end up like the waste queen.

Two days later, King Teng boarded the ship with the mid-autumn gift that King Teng sent to Chang'an, and at the same time, he also brought a letter with the word "Shangguan" written on it.

The carriage stopped at the gate of Cai Guogong's mansion and drove away slowly.

"The underwear I made for you, the clothes, shoes and socks I made for the third boy are still in the house." Cen Sanniang raised a corner of the car curtain, feeling a little distressed.

Du Yansui held her shoulders, felt that there was no flesh in his hands, and felt a little distressed: "Didn't the patriarch say that this mansion was built by grandfather, not from the emperor, and has not been taken back by the government. The house is still Ours, the patriarch uncle will send someone to sweep and guard. When the situation is stable in the future, if any boy is not pleasing to the eye, let him come back to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan. Look at you, it’s good if you don’t have the root of the disease. You are really ugly .”

Cen Sanniang turned her head angrily, and grabbed his skirt with her hand: "You think I'm ugly, aren't you ugly?"

Cen Sanniang was annoyed and sad when she saw the scars on the ripped collar, and her voice gradually became lower: "We won't go to the battlefield anymore..."

Her fingers were slightly cold, and her skin was itchy when touched.Du Yansui held her hand, put it to his lips, kissed her, and pulled her into his arms.The thin and small body immediately filled the vacancy in his chest, making him feel full: "When I was young, I longed to be a general. Like my grandfather, he strategized and was admired by everyone."

In fact, Du Yansui seldom talked about his dreams to her.Cen Sanniang only knew that when he was young, he took on the responsibility of revitalizing the third family of the Du family, and rushed to restore his title through meritorious service.These are the elders on his shoulders.

How can a person not have a dream.Cen Sanniang remembers that in her previous life, she wanted to win the highest award of Chinese arts and crafts, and wanted to be famous all over the world.Even if it doesn't come true, there are dreams.Her dream in this life is to have money and leisure to marry a good man and live comfortably.The career dream is gone, and there are more dreams about life.

She suddenly thought, if Du Yansui was a family man, would he feel bored if he took care of his wife and raised his children?
"On paper, I only really understood when I first went to the battlefield and went to Jiangnan to suppress the rebellion. Even if I won, I didn't feel excited or excited at all. I just breathed a sigh of relief. If I won, I wouldn't hurt my grandmother. You have implicated the Du clan. In the last battle, there were probably more than 1 people surrounded on a low hill. Almost all of them were killed. What happened to the 1 people? It can soak the entire mountain. Is it majestic as a general? I really don’t think so. Standing on the top of the mountain, I don’t even want to take a second look.”

Du Yansui always felt very tired from life.Even now that he has abandoned his title and stayed away from the court, there is still a heavy stone in his heart.

Back in Chang'an, entered Qianniuwei.He can calmly talk to King Teng about the responsibilities of the elders on his shoulders.

When he was able to leave Chang'an and take Cen Sanniang and his son to live in the countryside, he could frankly tell Cen Sanniang how hard he had been on the battlefield twice.

However, there are some secrets that even Cen Sanniang cannot tell.That's how she thought it was all over.

He lowered his head, saw Cen Sanniang's curious eyes, and lightly pecked her on the cheek: "Don't think that being able to make achievements in the court is what a man wants. I am looking forward to leaving Chang'an as soon as possible."

Cen Sanniang was relieved.Everyone's life is different.

King Teng made many arrangements in the past, and all kinds of elite subordinates played a big game of chess with great interest to pass the time.Now he is thinking hard about how to move between the emperor and the empress.After tossing and tossing for half his life, he still doesn't know what will happen to him after the Wu family completely controls Chao Gang in the future.

After thinking about it, she felt that she was very lucky.She had never had a vigorous love with Du Yansui, but her harvest was no less than the shocking love between King Teng and the empress.

She's just a layman with no ambitions.

"It would be great if you could stay with me." Cen Sanniang put aside her concern for the high-level elites, and leaned in Du Yansui's arms contentedly.

At first I thought it was a day of farming, but later it developed into a wealthy family's grievance type, and later found out that it was involved in Gongdou.After a long circle, it is better to live in farming.

Du Yansui smiled and said: "The family matters are also settled. Say goodbye to Yan Wan and the others... Hey, and your brother. Let's go after finishing."

The grandmother and mother were sacrificed, and the clan affairs were also explained.Yanwan was taken care of by Zou Dalang.Du Yansui was thinking silently in his heart, thinking of Cen Zhilin who lived in Zou's house.

When the kid heard that he had abandoned his title and left his sect, his eyes were not kind.I don't know how the fourth master of the Cen family, who only knows how to play birds and prostitutes, gave birth to such a heterogeneous species.But at the age of 14, he learned how those old scholars put their hands behind their backs and looked at people with their chins down.

Du Yansui was a little annoyed.Even if he adopts to the fourth room of Cen's family and becomes Sanniang's younger brother.Marry a chicken and follow the chicken, is it his turn to take care of the married daughter?
"What's wrong with Cen Zhilin?" Cen Sanniang raised her head and rubbed the stubble on his chin with her hand.

Du Yansui didn't hide it from her: "He doesn't seem to like us like this."

Cen Sanniang said loudly: "I'll talk to him. He is still young, so he doesn't know that the situation in the court is treacherous. Let's stay here. It's a dilemma between us."

"Yes." Du Yansui sighed.

At this moment the carriage stopped.Before the two could ask, Hei Qi whispered beside the car: "Shangguanyi's family was beheaded outside the Meridian Gate today. There are too many people and the road is blocked."

Du Yansui exclaimed in surprise: "Shangguanyi?"

He took a deep breath and told Hei Qi: "Detour back to Zou's house."
