his general

1 ~ 12

1.

The General's Mansion in the capital was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the plaque in front of the door was also hung with bright red woven silk and satin. The wedding sedan chair came from the south of the city, and the crowds of onlookers along the way crowded together, almost tens of thousands of empty alleys.

Whether it's regrettable or excited, everyone has their own thoughts.

The person in the sedan chair did not cover his head, and he was a man with a handsome face. He was the Zhuangyuan Lang who rode his horse and paraded through the streets five days ago.

2.

Xie Zhang was wearing a bright red wedding dress, sitting on the wedding bed, as if in a lifetime, yesterday he was still in the court and dealing with state affairs, but now he is married to someone else as a man's wife.

Speaking of that man, Xie Zhang was full of doubts. He was calm and handsome, and he was clearly a brave man. He was a general protecting the country at the age of twenty one. He was so loyal to the emperor and patriotic. For some unknown reason, the emperor gave him an absurd marriage.

With a "bang", the door was pushed open.Gu Xun staggered to the bed, reeking of alcohol, seeing that he couldn't stand still, Xie Zhang hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward to support him.

He doesn't hold a lot of alcohol, but today he was filled to the brim. Everyone could not hide their joy when they saw this general who had never been expressionless.

Gu Xun's head hurts, his mind is dizzy, he looked down at the person who supported him, and sighed: "Why are you here again..."

As soon as the words fell, Xie Zhangzheng felt strange, and suddenly felt a heat on his lips, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to push it away.

Gu Xun was violently pushed down on the bed by him, turned over, muttered vaguely, "Today's dream is also untouchable" and fell into a deep sleep...

Xie Zhang stood in front of the bed, clenched his hands hanging by his sides into fists, and his anger was about to ignite him.

I thought there was something hidden about the marriage, after all, Gu Xun's behavior did not go beyond the rules when he received his relatives, and even skipped the wedding wine.

I don't know... I don't know that he is such a disciple!

The young Zhuangyuan Lang's face was blushing, he didn't know whether it was from anger or shame...

3.

In the early morning of the next day, birds chirping, insects chirping and a breeze came, the hangovered Gu Xun had a splitting headache and got out of bed, only to see his husband and wife sitting at the table, propping their heads on their hands, as if they were asleep...

He hesitated whether he should carry him to the bed, but finally gave up, took out his big coat, put it on the man lightly, and left the bedroom.

As soon as the door was closed, the person in the room opened his eyes. The person's expression was clear, as if he had just woken up.

Xie Zhang looked at the closed door with complicated emotions.

He had been sleeping very lightly, and when Gu Xun just got out of bed, he woke up, not knowing how to deal with it, so he fell asleep.

In fact, he really needed to rest. He didn't close his eyes after the imperial decree. He was very tired at the moment, thinking that this person has no parents anyway, so he didn't need to perform the empty rituals, so he climbed into bed and slept with his clothes on.

Gu Xun ordered the kitchen to prepare some light food, and then left the house.

4.

The horse had fought with him and was very spiritual. It carried Gu Xun galloping along the trails in the suburbs of Beijing. It didn't take long before they arrived at the foot of Jing'an Mountain.

There is a small temple on Jing’an Mountain, called Jing’an Temple. There are very few monks in the temple. The abbot twisted his gray beard and asked with a smile: “Your master asked you to run errands again? Still not here."

Gu Xun waited for him to finish speaking before saying, "He's married."

The abbot just smiled and said nothing.

Gu Xun said again: "I'll offer incense." The abbot nodded and led him to the temple.

After burning the incense, Gu Xun secretly took out a bank note and wanted to stuff it into the incense cabinet, after a pause, he exchanged it for some gold.

On the way down the mountain, I passed by a small shop selling sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. Gu Xun glanced at the dilapidated banner in front of the door, and led the horse forward. The proprietress smiled and said, "It was new when you first came here."

Gu Xun was startled when he heard this, and looked up at her, only to see that the girl was already dressed as a woman. She smiled and said, "Actually, I've seen you every time you pass by, but today... I'm very surprised. Speaking of which, I plan to Do you want to bring some back to the wife at home?"

Gu Xun nodded without changing his face, took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, thanked him and left.

5.

Back at the mansion, Xie Zhang was already sitting at the dining table, frowning and rubbing his stomach, Gu Xun handed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake to the boy and told him to go to the kitchen to put it on a plate, then went to sit opposite Xie Zhang.

Xie Zhang caught a glimpse of what he brought in with sharp eyes, and was overjoyed. He didn't expect that this wooden post also liked to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and it was from the one on the other side of Jing'an Mountain.

Seeing his brows stretched, Gu Xun said, "Dinner."

Xie Zhang knew that he was reticent, so he ignored him, so he scooped up the thin and glutinous porridge. The servant brought the plate with pastries to the table, and Gu Xun pushed it to the other side. Take one and throw it in your mouth.

After eating, the two went back to their studies.

Gu Xun seemed to have prepared the side garden early in the morning. He said it was the side garden, but in fact he allocated most of the general's mansion to Xie Zhang, Meilin, Qizhen Pavilion, and the garden with the pavilion in the lake.

Xie Zhang is very satisfied with the sudden good treatment, there will never be such a big study and such free time in Xie's house.

I thought that after getting married, troubles would come one after another, but I didn't expect that the life in this general's mansion was more leisurely and happy than before.

The stomach full of anger accumulated last night was probably replaced by one after another joy.

For the first time after receiving the imperial decree, Xie Zhang felt that this marriage was beneficial.

6.

After staying in the study for an hour, Xie Zhang went to the pavilion in the garden. He looked at the three characters "Ting in the Lake", touched his chin, and said to the young man who married with him: "The name of this pavilion is very good. It's really tasteless, but the flowers are nice."

"I heard that the general was brought back by the emperor's own soldiers during the war. He must be a person who doesn't study much." Xie Xiaojiu was picked up from the street by Xie Zhang when he was a child.When she learned that the young master was going to marry the general, Xie Xiaojiu was very angry, but insisted on following Xie Zhang to the general's mansion.

Hearing this, Xie Zhang hit his head with a folding fan, and said with a smile, "I brought you back, too..."

Xie Xiaojiu ran around with her head in her arms, dissatisfied: "But I have read a lot of books with the young master!"

Xie Zhang walked to the stone bench and sat down, nodded at the table, and asked, "Then what good name do you want to give this pavilion?"

Xie Xiaojiu said while making tea: "There are so many flowers in this garden, it must be called 'Baihua Pavilion'."

Xie Zhang laughed and scolded: "It's half a catty!"

While the two were chatting and laughing, Gu Xun's guards came in a hurry, saluted Xie Zhang, and said, "Ma'am, people from the palace have come with an imperial edict."

Xie Zhang was taken aback, that's right, he had been leisurely for a long time, but he forgot why he got married, got up and straightened the hem of his clothes, then followed the guards and walked to the front hall.

7.

Xie Zhang looked at the prince's and concubine's clothes in his hand, with a complicated look on his face. Looking at Gu Xun who was still expressionless, he had the idea of ​​solving the problem violently for the first time.

He took a deep breath and asked Gu Xun, "You knew this early on?"

Gu Xun didn't speak, just nodded, his expression seemed to suddenly become more serious than usual.

Xie Zhang: "Since the founding of the country, the first prince with a different surname, the emperor really thinks highly of you, lord, but he thinks so much of you that he will force you to marry a man as his wife."

Gu Xun seemed a little puzzled, he looked at the Xie Zhang for a long time, so long that Xie Zhang thought he was going to kill people and destroy his body, then he heard him say: "The emperor didn't force me, I asked the emperor for it."

Xie Zhang felt that his smile was going to be unbearable, did he ask for it? !You asked for it yourself, you asked for it lightly, and my whole life is over like this!

Gu Xun: "Do you want lunch?"

"I can't eat it! Resign!" After speaking, he ran back to his garden angrily.

I completely forgot what I said to Xie Xiaojiu when I was visiting the garden, "It's not bad to live like this, I take a rest every day".

8.

Xie Zhang walked back and forth in the study room with his hands behind his back, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. This marriage was not due to other secrets, let alone due to love, so there was only a deal left.

However, he couldn't figure out what the deal was, so he could only discuss it with his father when he returned home.

After the unhappy parting that day, Gu Xun never looked for Xie Zhang again, and even sent most of the guards around him to the side garden to watch him and not let him leave the house.

Xie Zhang was furious and a little scared, but there was nothing he could do, and he managed to get back to the door.

This morning, Xie Zhang got up early and ran to the door, but he didn't see the carriage. The housekeeper seemed to know everything well, and stopped him and said, "Princess, please come back. The prince went to the court and said, don't go back."

"My lord won't accompany me back, can I go back by myself?!" Xie Zhang was furious.

"Princess, please go back." The housekeeper stood at the door, as if he would step on my corpse if he wanted to go out, and seeing the princess glaring at me, he sighed softly: "Princess, don't misunderstand the prince, the prince is also for the sake of the princess. Although my master is always expressionless and seldom speaks, he looks cold and heartless, but his thoughts on the princess are deep and deep, and those who have been in our house in the past few years know it."

9.

Xie Zhang didn't insist on it in the end, of course it wasn't because the butler said that the lord had deep thoughts about him, but because he felt that "these years" were simply unclear.

As far as he knows, the two clearly did not know each other before they got married, and if they insisted that they met, it was at most the few early courts when he was an official.

Xie Zhang calmed down and thought about Gu Xun's words, and faintly felt that his "begging" might not be a momentary brain fever caused by playing with his heart... But admiration is not something to be called. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, what kind of admiration is there that cannot be expressed in words, step by step?

Since then, his curiosity has become stronger and stronger, but his anger has gradually faded away. He didn't bring up the matter of the mansion again, and went to visit Gu Xun secretly every now and then. The days passed by in such a strange and leisurely way.

In the blink of an eye, autumn came, and the flowers in the garden had fallen, so he ordered the guards to change the name of the pavilion to "Fengjun Pavilion".

The people Gu Xun sent were very obedient and highly efficient, unlike Xie Xiaojiu who likes to sleep while stealing fish. Every time he was caught by the head guard, he would be wrapped up lightly in a quilt, tied with a rope and hung on a tree.

Tsk, what an indifferent and ruthless pretty guard...

10.

After a long time, Xie Zhang felt homesick.

Although my mother had passed away long ago, as a concubine, the mistress of the family didn't treat me very well, but my father treated me equally and had high hopes, especially when it came to becoming an official, he always encouraged me.

When it comes to becoming an official, Xie Zhang himself does not have a strong desire to be an official, but every time he faces his father's expectant eyes, he always feels that he should do something for the family. Next.

Xie Zhang thought that he couldn't go out, so he thought about asking the guards to invite his father to come to the house for a gathering, but unexpectedly, the head guard refused without thinking: "I'm sorry."

"Then I'll write a letter and you can deliver it for me." Xie Zhang was a little discouraged.

"The princess is embarrassing her subordinates."

"I can't deliver the letter? Then I'll give you the money, and you can buy some food and send it to the head office? Or is there no one in my house?" Xie Zhang saw something wrong with the chief guard's expression, and thought to himself, could it be that he couldn't deliver it? No one can take it?

Sure enough, the head guard leaned even lower: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

11.

Xie Zhang thinks that the people in the palace are very interesting, they all follow Gu Xun, they are not thoughtful, they are not scheming, they are too easy to talk, gossiping maids, talkative servants.

Although he knew that something happened at home, he didn't know what it was, and if he continued to ask them, he knew that he had slipped the tongue.

Since everyone thought he didn't know, then he had to pretend not to know.But the strange thing is that only his father is the only one who has some concern with him. Xie Zhang is not very sad because something happened at home, but he is very curious why Gu is hiding it from himself and everyone in the palace like this.

Gu Xun still hasn't looked for him, but there is sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the table in his room every day, which is especially fresh, and all kinds of rare treasures appear in the garden every now and then, and they are not ordinary things. Sometimes it is a dark red ancient bamboo flute, sometimes It is a white jade carving pen holder.

Sometimes Xie Zhang even wondered if he saved Gu Xun's life a few years ago, so in order to pay back his life, that person was "forced" to beg him from the emperor.

In other words, once the turmoil is over, the position of the main wife must be given to her, otherwise, no matter how much they even drink the wine, they will not drink it.

I don't know which family's girl fell into such bad luck. It's like a piece of wood to marry that person.

12.

Gu Xun was very anxious all day long, even the housekeeper could see it.

Butler: "My lord, do you have something to order?"

"Uncle Zhao, today is his birthday, I..." Gu Xun looked at the bracelet in his hand, hesitant to speak.

"This is left by the prince's mother, why hasn't it been given to the princess?"

"I..." was about to answer, but was interrupted by a roar outside the door.

"Gu Xun! You... come out for me!" The voice was full of anger, but his figure was shaky.

Gu Xun heard his voice, quickly put down the bracelet to open the door, helped Xie Zhang crookedly into the door, tilted his head and said to the butler, "Uncle Zhao, hangover soup."

"I'm not drunk! I don't drink!"

The butler left in response, not in the direction of the kitchen, but back to his room.
