For Su Wenzheng, this is his first time in Beijing.
Even though his mind is as indifferent as water now, he can't help but be attracted by the customs, customs and streets of the prosperous Tokyo city.
Along the way, I looked left and right, stopping from time to time, walking to a small stall, picking up a strange-looking thing and asking the vendor,
After learning that this thing came from the far west, Su Wenzheng was surprised and couldn't help but sigh, praising that the Zhou Dynasty was now extremely prosperous and commanding the world.
Su Wenzheng was even more curious when he saw some blond and blue-eyed Westerners in groups.
On horseback, when Lu Heng saw Su Wenzheng like this, he just smiled and said nothing.
After he returned, Lu Heng asked with a smile: "How was it? What do you think after seeing Tokyo today?"
Su Wenzheng first praised the current prosperity of the country and the people. Then, after seeing Lu Heng's joking eyes, he smiled and said sarcastically: "Do you want me to praise your contribution to the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Lu Heng smiled, looked at Su Wenzheng expectantly and said, "Yeah, compliment me?"
Su Wenzheng shook his head and smiled, looking at the elegant and talented people on the streets of Tokyo, and said softly: "It is the character of a gentleman to live in a humble manner..."
Hearing this, Lu Heng rolled his eyes speechlessly.
The other party has been a teacher for these years, and what he faces every day is a group of ignorant students. What he teaches every day is the knowledge that opens up the minds of these children. Among them, the conduct of a gentleman is the most important thing.
Since then, I have developed the habit of preaching.
Even today, when facing Lu Heng and seeing Lu Heng looking so proud, he couldn't help but start talking.
When Lu Heng heard Su Wenzheng's lecture, his head suddenly became as big as a bucket.
Along the way, Su Wenzheng's ink marks were as good as those of Tang Monk, which really made Lu Heng's brain hurt.
From the national policy system to the farming practices of farmers in the countryside, all matters, when viewed through Su Wenzheng's eyes, were a matter of truth, and the arguments were so thorough that Lu Heng was speechless in his argument.
Along the way, Lu Heng got to experience the power of this uncle.
However, at the same time, Lu Heng finally gave up his plan to persuade him to become an official.
The country in Su Wenzheng's understanding may only be realized when human civilization is highly developed!
At this time, I heard Su Wenzheng talking about the behavior of a gentleman, which reminded Lu Heng that he must be humble and keep a low profile.
Lu Heng immediately begged for mercy, raised his hands and said: "Lu has deeply realized his shortcomings. Thank you for reminding me!"
"Have you really realized your mistake?" Su Wenzheng looked at Lu Heng seriously and asked eagerly.
Lu Heng nodded sadly and sighed: "Of course!"
Su Wenzheng held back the lectures he was full of, and twitched the corners of his mouth. He smacked his lips with unfinished thoughts and said regretfully: "That's great!"
When Lu Heng saw Su Wenzheng's hesitant expression, his heart trembled for no reason.
Then he quickly rode away, not daring to stay for a moment.
Beside them, Agui Sangbiao and others couldn't help laughing when they saw that the young master was so frightened by his elder brother-in-law.
A group of people rode horses, crossed the street, and came straight to the place where the princes and nobles gathered to live in the East District.
"**,**ah!"
Along the way, Su Wen was looking at the beautiful high-walled courtyards of dignitaries on both sides of the street, and kept cursing.
If the concierge of these nobles hadn't known the imperial master beside him, Su Wenzheng, who had a gaping mouth and spoke nonsense, would have been beaten by the crowd and his nose would have been bruised and his face would have been swollen.
Lu Heng was riding ahead and pretended not to hear him at all.
After riding for a while, Lu Heng turned over and dismounted first.
Behind him, Agui Sangbiao and others also stood up and dismounted.
"Are we here?" Su Wen was riding a horse and asked in confusion.
Lu Heng ignored him and just led the horse forward.
Agui smiled and explained: "In front of us are the meritorious veterans of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Your Majesty has given an order. The civil servants will settle down and the generals will dismount. To show respect!!"
After hearing this, Su Wenzheng sighed again: "What a privilege!"
"Ahem, Mr. Su, this is His Majesty's will!" Agui reminded Su Wenzheng kindly, not wanting to make a fool of himself.
"Your Majesty can't either..." Su Wenzheng waved his hand in an upright manner. However, after a moment, he heard the meaning of Agui's words. He turned over and dismounted in panic, moving as quickly as a seasoned cavalry on the battlefield.
"You mean, Your Majesty?" Su Wenzheng asked with his eyes widened, his voice lowered and trembling.
Agui nodded and said: "Yes, His Majesty has mentioned these words on the doors of these ministers, so, oh, there is this rule!"
While explaining, Agui also felt a little suspicious.
I heard from the young master that Mr. Su was also from an official family before, so he is well-informed. Why don’t you even know this?
However, what he didn't know was.
A few years ago, Su Wenzheng, the eldest son of Jiangning Zhizao Mansion, suddenly fell into despair and became a bandit. Now, seeing the compound of these high-ranking officials and powerful ministers, there is naturally an unquenchable resentment in his heart.
It's said to be envy, but it's more like jealousy.
As time goes by, jealousy becomes a habit.
Therefore, after seeing this scene in front of me, I habitually began to speak nonsense.
Fortunately, it seemed that His Majesty's name was important enough. Su Wen was finally calming down after listening to Agui's explanation.
Lu Heng and his party were finally able to stop worrying about Su Wenzheng being beaten.
He led the horse and walked leisurely, enjoying the long-lost tranquility.
The morning sun is warm and bright.
Shopping on the stone pavement reflects the charming halo.
In late spring in March, the warm wind blows.
The green trees beside the street were blown green, and the petals were also blown away.
Fragrant and pleasant fragrance, with a sweet taste.
That's the smell of peach blossoms.
The wind blew, and a few petals fell with the wind, over the high wall, flying over the street, and slowly falling.
This wide stone road is paved with a layer of thin flower petals.
"There are so many peach blossoms. They were still there when I left last year!" Agui breathed the air hard, with a look of enjoyment on his face, and said to himself curiously.
Beside him, Sang Biao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, yes, so many peach blossoms!"
Agui smiled and nodded, then thought of something and turned around. He looked at Sang Biao strangely and asked in confusion: "When you left last year, you weren't in Tokyo, were you?"
Sang Biao rolled his eyes at him and hummed: "No matter what, I guessed it!"
Then Sang Biao led the horse forward.
Behind him, Agui was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses. He cursed secretly and raised his middle finger to Sang Biao.
Lu Heng, who was walking in front, walking side by side with Su Wenzheng, seemed to have thought of something. He glanced at the colorful and fragrant peach blossoms in front of him, with a smile in his eyes.
After staring for a long time, Lu Heng smiled, shook his head and sighed softly.
Behind him, Agui, who was leading the horse, suddenly stopped and looked towards a courtyard next to the street.
After staring for a while, Agui chuckled and loosened his grip on the sword hilt.
"What's wrong?" Sang Biao noticed Agui's movements and asked in a low voice.
Agui blinked his eyes mysteriously, raised a finger to his lips, and whispered to Sang Biao.
Sang Biao was at a loss, but saw that everyone was silent and just walking quietly.
Sang Biao nodded thoughtfully.
It was supposed to be a busy time in the morning, but the streets were extremely empty, and not a single person appeared.
The whole street was surprisingly quiet.
On the bluestone road, there is only the sound of horse hooves, clear and bright.
Along with the petals falling in the air, Lu Heng, wearing a green cloth gown, looked like an immortal coming to the world.
A group of people were walking quietly.
When they arrived at the gate of Lu Mansion, Liu Qingqing, wearing a blue cloth and white floral dress, was standing at the door under the old lantern. She looked up like a woman who was looking forward to her husband's return.
The woman bit her lip lightly, her beautiful eyes full of expectation, and from time to time she stood on her tiptoes and glanced into the distance.
But when she saw that no one had returned, she pouted and snorted quietly, feeling a little disappointed in her heart.
Da da da……
The crisp sound of horse hooves gradually came.
Subtle, but very clear.
After Liu Qingqing heard this, a hint of joy appeared in her eyes. She quickly stretched out her hand and straightened out her stunning appearance.
With affection and a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, she quietly waited for her returnee to appear.
Gradually, a series of cyan figures appeared.
Among the falling peach blossoms, the scholar wearing a green cloth gown led a white horse and strolled among the falling peach blossoms.
The sun shone on his body, reflecting a charming halo.
That scholar really looked like a peach blossom fairy descending into the world.
The scholar stopped, holding the horse rein in his hand, standing in the sunshine, and smiled brightly at Liu Qingqing: "Back!"
The voice is soft, soft and warm.
Just like that rainy night three years ago, the first conversation outside the gate of the small courtyard beside the Jiangning River.
Liu Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled, biting her lips lightly.
She gathered up the front of her long skirt, raised her little feet and walked down the steps.
After standing in front of the scholar, he stared for a long time.
Liu Qingqing smiled brightly, the sun was shining brightly.
In an instant, the peonies in the garden were eclipsed.
Her beautiful eyes looked lovingly at Lu Heng's slightly thin cheeks, and Liu Qingqing's pretty face was full of worry.
Slowly stretched out the white jade-like catkin and gently straightened the folds of Lu Heng's gown.
The quiet, orchid scent entered Lu Heng's sense of smell.
It’s so warm!!
Lu Heng looked at Liu Qingqing's familiar movements and felt the woman's silent concern.
Feeling in his heart, he stretched out his arms and hugged her waist.
The woman smiled shyly, lowered her head, and hid in Lu Heng's arms.
The two of them hugged each other quietly and stood at the door, under the lantern that swayed gently in the wind, for a long, long time.
After a long time, the woman in her arms seemed to have thought of something and let out a light sound.
He quickly pushed Lu Heng away and said anxiously: "Lü Lang, your Majesty is here!" (To be continued)
