Shangxian Cultivation Handbook

Chapter 54: Burning incense and playing the piano, sad and boundless

On New Year's Eve, the lights of thousands of houses are lit up, and it's so lively.Also bustling was the imperial palace, where the concubine, who hadn't seen the emperor's eyes for half a year, just took this opportunity to have a good look.

After toasting and expressing gratitude, Song Nanchu secretly ran back from the banquet.Seeing Song Nanchu's stealthy appearance, Gu Zhiyuan smiled, gestured to Eunuch Zheng, and whispered something in his ear.Eunuch Zheng nodded repeatedly, bent his waist and stepped back.When the other ministers saw it, they all sighed in their hearts: Another Wu Yong.

While sighing, he still looked at Wu Yong who was drinking alone, expressing his disdain for Wu Yong.

In the entire court, Wu Yong knew a lot of people but didn't have close acquaintances. There were many people who hated him, and he didn't want to collude with them.He didn't want to return, and someone always came up.

"Master Shangshu, why is he drinking alone?" Du Sheng, who had just returned from the disaster area for a few days, approached Wu Yong with a glass of wine, smiling.

As the saying goes, don't hit people with smiling faces. Du Sheng has a good temper, and he has a smiling face that makes people hate him.

Wu Yong glanced at him, and snorted: "Master Taipu Siqing is really good at picking people, but he picked someone like me who is not knowledgeable." After finishing speaking, he poured another glass and drank it.

Du Sheng pretended not to understand, and sat cross-legged next to Wu Yong: "It's so lonely drinking alone, it's so lively, you need someone to accompany you."

"A person?" Wu Yong laughed loudly, pointing his wine glass at the smiling person sitting at the top, "See? That's... a person."

Speaking of a person, it shouldn't be him anyway.The high place was extremely cold, but the man sat firmly on the high place, with a smile on his face, and he didn't look lonely at all.

Wu Yong looked over the cup he was holding, and stared at Gu Zhiyuan deeply, feeling that he couldn't see through that person in his life.

Du Sheng followed his gaze, his pupils flickered a few times, and then gradually darkened.

He took a sip of wine, smiled, and looked away: "Lord Wu, be careful in everything, don't force anything, and it's better to put some thought into it." After speaking, he raised his glass to Song Nanchu, who was led by him by Eunuch Zheng, grin.

Song Nanchu was feeling sullen because Eunuch Zheng called him over again, but now when he saw Du Sheng, his eyelids jumped up quickly.He nodded to Du Sheng as a greeting.Then he walked towards Gu Zhiyuan quickly, with heavy steps and resentment.

Du Sheng smiled, some people can see through at a glance, some people love and hate at a glance.

"It's good for you, run fast." Gu Zhiyuan lowered his voice, whispering in Song Nanchu's ear.

Song Nanchu bent down to listen to what Gu Zhiyuan said, and lowered his voice: "I just went to the toilet."

"Do you need to go back to the south gate specially to go to the toilet?" Gu Zhiyuan smiled to the outside world, his eyes were shining and flickering.

"Chen, I like to use my own." Song Nanchu continued to lie. Anyway, he knows the bottom line, so what is he afraid of?

Gu Zhiyuan didn't speak any more, and turned his head to look at Song Nanchu.At that time, a bright moon was hanging high, facing the moon, Song Nanchu's figure became much blurred.Only the crescent moon and the faint figure reflected in his eyes.

All of a sudden, the cheeks were hot, and the heart was beating like a drum, as if the dry land met the rain, making people's blood boil.

Song Nanchu straightened up, lowered his eyes, his slender eyelashes covered his gaze: "Your Majesty?"

"En?" Gu Zhiyuan responded with a soft voice.

This sound made Song Nanchu soften his heart.

Wu Yong, who had been watching this side all the time, slowly withdrew his gaze, and the cup in his hand was gently placed on the table, with a smile on his lips.

It should be a mess.

Because Old General Yi had no children, Shen Yuan went to the General's mansion on New Year's Eve, thinking of his teacher's kindness, to be a filial son once.

General Yi has been around for so many years, and he has never enjoyed the joy of having his children and grandchildren around his knees, but today he has enjoyed enough.

In previous years, he led the army to celebrate the New Year with a group of brothers, but he did not feel lonely.Later, when I got old and came back, there were fewer adults in the house, and it was much cooler.Later, he became less optimistic. Having dinner with the housekeeper and occasionally listening to a play on New Year's Eve is considered Chinese New Year.

Where is it like this year?Shen Yuan was specially approved by Gu Zhiyuan to come to General Xun Yi to celebrate the New Year, so naturally he had prepared all the goods for the New Year.He came to the general's mansion early in the afternoon, startled the old housekeeper who was about to post the couplets, and thought that he would come to the old general to learn from his hard work until New Year's Eve.After asking, he actually came to accompany them, the old housekeeper felt warm and almost burst into tears.

"Master?" Shen Yuan held the couplet in his hand and called out to General Yi, who was basking in the sun, with a smile on his face, looking even more well-behaved than when he was studying on weekdays.

Shen Yuan was busy all afternoon in the General's Mansion, first helping to post the couplets, but in the end they couldn't post them properly and were sent to the kitchen to help.He helped make dumplings again, made more than a dozen skins, but the ones that came out didn't look like dumplings, and he didn't know what they were, so he was disgusted again.

They rushed back and forth, and were finally led by the old housekeeper to General Yi.

"Guard Shen, take a rest. If you act like this, we may not be able to finish our work." Although the old butler said so, he grinned happily.

General Yi looked at Shen Yuan with a stern face, as usual—seriously: "Are you in the way?"

"En." Shen Yuan took a small stool and sat beside General Yi, brought peanuts, and peeled them for General Yi to eat.

The old general took the peanuts, chewed them in his mouth, and snorted coldly: "If you don't understand, just stay on the sidelines like the old man. You're busy, haven't you been driven over here?"

Shen Yuan kept moving his mouth while peeling the peanuts in his hands, turned his head, and smiled: "Master came here to bask in the sun because he was disgusted, right?"

"It's just that you talk a lot, why don't you talk on weekdays?" The old general couldn't hold back his face, and his voice was a little louder.

Shen Yuan also didn't explain, "Ha ha" foolishly amused.

The banquet in the palace lasted for a long time, Gu Zhiyuan found an excuse of being 'tired', and withdrew earlier, allowing his subjects to rejoice in Taichen Palace.That's right, when he left, those courtiers were rejoicing.

"I think..." Song Nanchu followed behind Gu Zhiyuan, walking unhurriedly, "I'm not as good as your Majesty's personal eunuch. When the eunuchs change shifts, I guard your majesty all day long. leave."

Gu Zhiyuan smiled: "Are there any complaints?"

"How dare the minister?" Song Nanchu sighed.

"Heh..." Gu Zhiyuan smiled, remembering what his mother said when he was a child, "You are the only one with a mouth, and you don't stop all day long."

"..." Song Nanchu thought it over, and he didn't speak anymore, so as not to make people think that he was the only one who opened his mouth in this world, and they would think he was annoying.

Eunuch Zheng followed at the end, looking at the two of them like this, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

How long had it been since His Majesty had spoken like this, and now that he heard it like this, he felt that it was more than lively, which made people laugh.
