Golden branches and jade leaves

Chapter 136

Night Rain and Cold ([-])

I jumped off the horse, and the servant waiting at the door of the house had already stepped forward to lead the horse and serve me.

As soon as I stepped into the house, before I had time to catch my breath, a bright purple figure jumped into my arms like a baby swallow returning home, bringing a warm breeze.

Then she raised her head, and under her smooth black hair was a smooth forehead and clear eyes. When she smiled, her black eyes looked like a pair of curved crescent moons, shining with expectations and surprises: "Daddy, you But you are back, my mother and I have been waiting for you for a whole morning."

She is my daughter, she is 14 years old this year, she looks like a bird flying in the spring, and she never stops chirping.

I patted her on the shoulder, "How old are you, silly girl, you don't have the bearing of a lady, if your mother sees it, you will complain again and again."

"If mother complains, she won't complain about her daughter. She will only complain about daddy. You are too busy with work and don't come home all day." She pouted her little mouth and said to me, with a slight tone of complain.

The hand I clapped couldn't help but stagnate.

In a daze, I have been married for 15 years. My wife is a gentle and gentle woman. She behaves considerately and well, manages the housework with courtesy and justice, and is extremely filial and respectful to her mother.

She is a qualified good wife.

There is almost a respect between us.In the eyes of outsiders, and even the servants of the family, we are a loving and well-matched couple.

However, I find that I often forget her appearance.

In the second year of our marriage, she gave birth to a daughter for me. My mother named her Zimo. She liked this granddaughter very much. Although she was slightly disappointed that her daughter-in-law did not give birth to her a grandson, Zimo The little disappointment quickly dissipated due to his cuteness and cleverness.

I walked towards the main hall with Zi Mo, and saw her figure waiting there, she still had such a gentle expression and extremely virtuous demeanor, just looking at my returning figure, her eyes burst with unconcealable joy.

I suddenly felt a little sorry for her.She has worked so hard to run the family all these years, especially when I was out in the army.And all I could give her were flashy things.

She stepped forward to take off the cloak for me, then brought just the right amount of warm tea, and asked softly: "My husband has worked hard all the way, have you settled the matter in the army?"

"It's almost there." I took a few sips of tea and asked casually, "Is there anything going on at home?"

"Shangshu ordered Mr. Ge to come to you and said that he wanted to discuss some matters." She said.

I put down the tea, and before I could ask any questions, she had already said, "Master Ge just arrived, and he is waiting for you in the study now?"

I didn't change my military uniform, so I hurried towards the study.

The person who had the biggest influence on my childhood was my mother, and it was she who later determined the path of my life.But in those most critical days, the person who accompanied me and guided me on the road was him, the old guard back then, and now Daqi Shangshuling Ge Chengming.

The winter sun is rare and brilliant, reflecting on the remnant snow of the previous few days, reflecting a bright silver light.

I pushed open the door of the study, and saw him standing on the side of the bookshelf, looking at a plum blossom in a vase.

In the most chaotic moment in the whole world, he once stood by my side and showed me the fastest way.For me, he is not only a colleague standing side by side in the court, but also a close friend, and even a mentor who taught me.

However, since he also became an official in the court, we have become a lot stranger, at least, he has never stepped into my house again.

I know, he did it to avoid suspicion.After all, it is not a good thing that the court general who is seriously ill has a close relationship with the civil servant who is in charge of the center.

Although the Empress Dowager had absolute trust in him, he was even more unable to show any courtesy.

Today, after 15 years, why would he step into my house at this time?

The light from the snow penetrated through the paper window, and the ground was pale, as if the snow had already entered the room. Amidst the whiteness of the ground, Mr. Ge's face was faintly pale and haggard.

"Sir." I bowed deeply. The person in front of me will always be my most respected master in my heart. During the days from Juyuguan to Laizhou and then to the capital, he taught me so much s things.

"It's been almost 16 years, and when I saw this study again, it still hasn't changed?" Mr. Ge said with a sigh.

I raised my head and looked at Mr.'s face carefully.

She is still charming, free and unrestrained in Wei and Jin style, but inadvertently, there is a trace of white on the sideburns.It's like the frost of this winter, hanging on the rich eaves, making people feel the cold coming.

Time flies so fast, it has been more than ten years in a blink of an eye.

"Over the years, sir, you have worked so hard for the government. It's really hard work." I couldn't help blurting out with emotion.

"I have to taste my wish, what's the hard work?" He looked at me with a bit of a smile and said.

I also laughed, Mr. was originally a person with great ambitions, and now he is in this imperial court, which is a place where he can give full play to his talents with peace of mind.Why am I not like this?Isn't it the most yearning for civil and military scholars all over the world to meet the confidant of the Lord of the Ming Dynasty and show off what they have learned?

Before I started asking him why he came, he had already spoken.

"Qinghan? These years... do you have any news about living in Yuguan?" He turned to look at the snow outside the window and asked suddenly.

I looked up and looked at him in shock.

Why do you ask him? !

The dusty past came to my mind.

Actually, this is the second time I have seen Mr. Ge in this study.In the two meetings, we talked about him.

The first time was the day after that chaotic night, on the day that determined the national line for a hundred years after Daqi.

I clearly remember the night of the shocking upheaval, the night when the fireworks and the prisoner offering ceremony were held together, that is, the night when Emperor Cheng, Prince Yu, and King Yan passed away at the same time.

At that time, I was in the main hall of Qianqing Palace, accompanied by countless civil servants and military generals, waiting for the start of the prisoner offering ceremony.

Yan Wang Ni Yuan's fainting for no reason was the beginning of a night that shocked everyone.

When all the officials were amazed and at a loss, Prince Yu who went to the back hall to look for Emperor Cheng never came back. It is said that he sat in the side hall on the side of Emperor Cheng's palace, and finally died of vomiting blood as weak as Ni Yuan.

What about the traces of Emperor Cheng?
Immediately afterwards came the news that Emperor Cheng had also passed away.

That night almost caused the entire imperial court, the entire Daqi, and the entire newborn world to collapse!
Daqi's three pillars were sent into the palace at the same time, and the imperial doctor and courtiers hurried back and forth.

I can't remember what I was busy that night, I only know that the busyness of that night almost drove me crazy.After a whole day and night of busy work, I barely took time to return home with red and swollen eyes, because I was worried that my mother would miss it.

In the misty night, my mother was waiting for me at the door of the room. She told me that Mr. Ge was already waiting for me in the study.

During the days when the Liao people occupied the city, it was Mr. Ge who ordered Donglailou's forces to protect Mother Zhouquan until the day when the capital was recovered.The mother is full of respect and gratitude for the teacher who saved her life and guided her son's future.

As I approached the study, my steps began to slow down.

I pushed open the door of the study, and saw Mr. Ge, who was dressed in commoner clothes, sitting leisurely at the table, playing with a chess game.

Having been tormented by the ups and downs of the monthly ticket list, a certain lamp struggled to climb up and gave a weak voice
Monthly ticket, monthly ticket~~~~~~~~~~~
Is it really destined to be the second child this month?
tears……
