Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 283
"Well, you Cui Kongrui, old friends reunited, you are so arrogant to see me!"

Wen Qiao didn't join the cabinet until his mood calmed down. He and Cui Hui were not only colleagues, but also relatives by marriage. They were about the same age and had always had a deep friendship.Now that they are reunited after a long absence, it can be said that they are ecstatic. This public gimmick, seeing Cui Huigao sitting on the couch with Meiji standing beside him, he couldn't help joking.

When Cui Hui heard this, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes, but he said with a smile: "Wen Taizhen's virtue is not obvious to me, so he is not better than me. We are friends with you, so why do we need to sweep the couch to greet you. "

"If you speak poisonously, can you be a friend?"

After Wen Qiao heard the words, he laughed and sat under Cui Hui, his eyes skipped over the plump and beautiful Mrs. Su, and there was a hint of gimmick in his eyes. He leaned forward and raised his palm He wanted to pat Cui Hui's calf, but pressed the thin quilt with his palm directly on the soft couch.His face changed suddenly, and he said in a startled voice: "Brother Kong Rui, you are..."

"Unfortunate disasters added to the body, it is a fluke to be able to save one's life."

Cui Hui smiled faintly, and lifted the thin quilt to reveal his broken legs.

"This this……"

Seeing this scene, Wen Qiao could no longer remain calm, his expression turned solemn, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

At this time, Shen Zhezi walked into the pavilion, sat down and told about the disaster that Cui Hui had suffered.After Wen Qiao finished listening, his expression became more complicated, he was silent for a long time, and he covered his face and sighed, "Kong Rui, you suffered this disaster on my behalf..."

The reason why he made this statement was because he was not the only choice when Bingzhouze people went south to persuade them to come in. The other choice was Cui Hui and his cousin Cui Yue.If Cui Hui had gone south to Jiankang back then, naturally he would not have suffered such a catastrophe.Seeing Cui Hui like this at this time, Wen Qiao felt ashamed in his heart.

"The doom may be fixed early, why should Taizhen force himself."

Cui Hui sighed, and immediately spoke calmly and gently.Not to mention that the events of the year had no direct relationship with the catastrophe he suffered, even if there was, he would not be able to avoid this catastrophe.Although there was such a discussion in Bingzhou back then, his family did not have a deep sense of closeness with the southeast court, which had a strong atmosphere in Yuefu at that time, and his family also lacked a lot of Xuanfeng inheritance. Even if they crossed the river, they might not be able to gain a foothold like Wen Qiao. down.There is really no reason to blame this.

Having said that, Wen Qiao couldn't let it go, and bowed deeply to Shen Zhezi at the banquet: "I only know today that Haiyan Nan saved my siblings from life to death. If it is useful in the future, I will repay this kindness!"

"Mr. Wen's words are serious. Mr. Cui suffered this misfortune in Wuzhong. My family should save him and clean up. Besides, Mr. Cui came to my house and taught me from time to time. He has benefited a lot. How dare he threaten me with kindness?"

Shen Zhezi quickly avoided the table and replied, and then went out to leave a space for the two of them to be alone.

After Shen Zhezi left, Wen Qiao pointed to Cui Hui's language belt and complained: "Since you are out of trouble, Kong Rui, why don't you send a message to me? I don't know that my best friend has suffered so much. How dare I Standing in the world?"

"Taizhen, you are independent from a foreign country in Jiangdong, so it is difficult to maintain it. I have nowhere to go, so why should I add more troubles to you. The master of the Shen family treats me and other disabled people preferentially, and I really have nothing to ask for. , to end here but to live on, this wish is enough."

Cui Hui replied with a smile, the current life is indeed a rare leisure for him in half a lifetime, the only thing is that he often misses the Shining Manor in Kuaiji in the capital.To a certain extent, it is also where his heart and soul are tied.

Wen Qiao moved the seat closer, took Cui Hui's hand and put it on his knee, and said with emotion: "I pay more attention to the situation in the Northland. Whenever someone comes to the south in the Heshuo Land, I always go to look for it. Every midnight dream Back home, I look forward to reuniting with my old friends. Had it not been for the letter sent to me by someone from Haiyan today, I would never have dreamed that Kong Rui would have already come to the south and was fostered in the family of the south."

Cui Hui also smiled and said: "The mountains and rivers are turbulent, people's affairs are overturned, and the encounters between people are bizarre. No matter how long the eyes are, it is difficult to guess one or two. If someone said in the early years in the North, I will encounter such a fate in the future. What do I mean? I don’t want to believe it. Sitting in the court now, I often lament the lack of manpower, and this is probably the remnant of the people, the old heart.”

"Isn't it only you, Kong Rui, who feel this way? Even I often hurt myself to be useless. I have been in the south for more than ten years, and I have not found any beneficial advice in the world. I have no self-sorrow and go north. I don't know if I can return in this life." Hometown. People say that there is no end to sacrifices, but now I am drifting away from my hometown, and I don’t know how the grass and trees have withered in the family temple of my hometown.”

Speaking of this festival, Wen Qiao also showed a hint of helplessness on his face: "If you can't return to China, you can't worship the family temple, what good is it to live alone? If you knew the current situation, how could you stick to the north and be able to generously go to the national calamity , to join in a heroic battle!"

After Cui Hui heard this, he shook his head: "Taizhen, you are now in the state, how can you indulge in laziness. You should work hard with hatred, and don't make your children laugh at me for doing nothing in the future!"

Although the two have been separated for a long time, their old friendship is profound. As the conversation gets longer, the strangeness that came from the long separation gradually fades away.In particular, what Cui Hui thought and said was very different from what people in Jiangdong felt, and even brought Wen Qiao back to the years when they supported each other and faced many difficulties when they opened their eyes. The experience of that period was difficult but fulfilling. , Looking back now, there is a different kind of sentimental growth compared to the life of talking all day long in Jiangdong and being overstaffed.

Seeing that Cui Hui was getting sleepy, Wen Qiao gradually stopped the topic, and invited him again: "Kong Rui, you should go to my house to be honored and raised. Although Mrs. Chen treats you politely, it is really inconvenient to bother you for a long time. Your talent is far beyond People of the time, there is a kind of incisive gain in the current situation, I also have to ask you for advice and discussion from time to time, so as not to be confused in the current situation."

After Cui Hui heard the words, he still waved his hands and refused, and said with a smile: "Jiangdong is full of talents, and there is no place for me, a wanderer like me, to criticize. I came to Duzhong this time, just to exchange ideas with old friends, and I will return to Kuaiji in the future Shining. It has become my second hometown, and many old friends who suffered from disasters in the past live in this hometown, and they can only feel at ease when they look at each other."

Wen Qiao still insisted on inviting, Cui Hui just refused, and in the end Wen Qiao was even a little annoyed: "Cui Kongrui, why are you so stubborn and refuse to enter my house? Although not as rich as the Shen family, I think I can still take care of you comprehensively. You are not an old friend but live in the court of the South. How will I deal with myself in the future? Even if you are a waste, I, Wen Taizhen, will take care of your daily life and be happy!"

"It's too real. Even if from my point of view, the capital may be robbed in the future, you will not be exempt from it. If both sides are safe in the future, we will meet each other naturally."

They are familiar with each other informally, but Cui Hui's words are straightforward.

Hearing this, Wen Qiao couldn't help being a little silent. Seeing that Cui Hui was sleepy, he had no choice but to leave.

After Wen Qiao came out of the Nuan Pavilion, Ren Qiu, who had been standing under the corridor for a long time, hurried up and said respectfully: "My master has prepared a small banquet, and has been waiting for Duke Wen for a long time."

Wen Qiao pondered for a moment, then motioned for Ren Qiu to lead the way.Although he didn't have much friendship with the Shen family, his family helped Cui Hui and raised him up to this day, so he had to show something no matter what.

It was late at night, but Shen Zhezi was still in good spirits.Today's Wen Qiao is a well-deserved bigwig in the current situation, sitting in the important town of Jiangzhou, and quite in harmony with Zhongshu, especially the Shen family.He used Cui Hui to get in touch with Wen Qiao today, not to achieve any purpose, but to maintain a harmonious atmosphere with each other, and it would be the best result to have some ventilation when the situation changes drastically.

Seeing Wen Qiao walking in, Shen Zhezi quickly got up to greet him.

Seeing Shen Zhezi again, Wen Qiao couldn't help but take a closer look.He really doesn't know much about Shen Zhezi, he just met a few times on some ceremonial occasions, and he knows everything else from hearsay.

Even though he didn't know him well, Wen Qiao had high regard for this young man in his heart, and Shen Shihao was arrogant, and he couldn't be called a high-ranking family among many people in Jiangdong.This son can stand out in such a family background and be praised by the world and Wang Changyu, which shows that he has enough talent.

Witnessing the Zhongshu brothers turning against each other earlier, and now he forcefully invited Cui Hui but was rejected, all have something to do with the Shen family.In particular, Cui Hui's words of admiration for the emperor's son-in-law made Wen Qiao even more curious about Shen Zhezi.

After paying respects to each other, Wen Qiao talked about Cui Hui again, and after thanking him deeply, he said, "I intended to take Kong Rui home, but he was stubborn and refused. One or two? Earlier, I didn't know that Kong Rui had come to the south, so he disturbed the residence a lot. After receiving the grace of saving his life, if he disturbed his appearance, it would be too rude."

After Shen Zhezi heard the words, he said with a smile: "This is the hometown where the heart is at ease. Mr. Cui is willing to stay in my house for a long time. If his heart is satisfied, why does Duke Wen bother to force others to seek justice? The virtuous living in my house has benefited a lot. What are you talking about?"

After hearing the words, Wen Qiao couldn't help being exhausted and even ashamed. He forced Cui Hui to invite him to feel at ease, and hoped to compensate Cui Hui, but he owed consideration to Cui Hui's position.

After a moment of silence, he opened his mouth and said: "Haiyan Nan's words are really touching. This place of peace of mind is his hometown. Kong Rui has gone through many disasters and persecutions. If he can really find peace of mind in the Zunfu, my strength will be turned into a blessing." The evil deeds that harmed his purity. Kong Rui and I met each other at the time of life and death, and we can support each other. Kong Rui’s kindness is my benefit. The kindness is so generous, it really makes me feel deeply!"

Although these words are gratitude, the implication is that they hope that the Shen family can see his face and continue to treat Cui Hui kindly.Even without Wen Qiao, Shen Zhezi still regards Cui Hui as his teacher. After all, he comes from the North and is sensitive to the current situation, and there are too few people who can be used by him.Shen Zhezi treats Cui Hui kindly, and makes friends with En Duhe, Guo Song and others, which is part of his career.

Although there are many talented people in the south, not only is there a deep gap between the north and the south, but there is also a huge difference in scenery. Oranges growing in Huaibei are trifoliate oranges, and talents from the south may not be suitable when they come to the north.In the future, if we want to fight in the Northland and restore the soil, we must pay attention to recruiting talents from the Northland.

Although the attitudes towards each other were quite friendly, after some polite greetings, the atmosphere inevitably became a bit cold and awkward.Wen Qiao gradually had the intention to leave, and was about to say goodbye, but found that Shen Zhezi was looking at him with burning eyes, and couldn't help looking over curiously.

"Wen Gong seems to have an illness in his skin, if he doesn't cure it, he will be afraid."

Shen Zhezi pointed at Wen Qiao and said solemnly.
