Lord Jinyiwei

"The mountains and rivers here are beautiful."

Dressed in a simple straight gown, with a saber wrapped around his waist, and riding a horse, Liang Sidao.

Guo Sheng looked around at the green mountains and clear waters as if they were in a line with the sky, with a slight smile on his lips, he nodded.Walking out of the capital city, I really feel that the sky is open and the land is vast. Although the capital city is prosperous, it has never been there.

While talking, the two rode slowly on horseback, admiring the beautiful scenery, without any official atmosphere, as if they were just ordinary tourists.

"Hongmao, look at that, does the afterglow look like a big crab?" Liang Si pointed to the west.

Guo Sheng looked around, pursed his lips and smiled: "I think that mountain is like an old man, and the sun setting by the mountain is like a lantern in the old man's hand, faintly illuminating the most beautiful landscape in the mountain with its light, for those who come and go appreciate."

Liang Si nodded. Naturally, he was not as poetic as he was. He just wanted to go to Huizhou to eat the hairy crabs.

At this time, a small stone rolled down from the top of the mountain and fell into the clear water, causing ripples, and disappeared without a trace in an instant, leaving no trace in the water.

However, Liang Si tightened the rope suddenly, and Guo Sheng looked over suspiciously.

Liang Si focused his attention on his surroundings.

"What's wrong?" Guo Sheng asked.

Liang Si was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice, "Let's hurry up."

Guo Sheng's heart skipped a beat.

At this time, the two of them rode their horses and galloped one after another, no longer yearning for the beautiful scenery, they leisurely walked away to the beautiful scenery, vaguely saw countless passers-by hiding in the mountains, and felt sorry for the two of them going away.

Yong County, Huizhou

People came and went of traders, Guo Sheng and Liang Si had already hidden their horses and put them in a stable, Guo Sheng asked, "What happened just now?"

Liang Si shook his head: "I don't know, it feels like someone is watching us suddenly."

Guo Sheng was shocked.

Seeing his seriousness, Liang Si said in relief, "Maybe the tension in the capital has brought me here, and I'm overthinking it. Where is Xiuping's home?"

Guo Sheng said, "I'll go ask."

Guo Sheng stopped a passerby: "Where is the Gao family in Hexi?"

Pedestrians show the way.

The two went along the road. Huizhou is mountainous and watery. The road is along a small river. On the bridge there are students holding books and reciting poems. Households, washing clothes by the river, the sound of water rushing, very pleasant to hear.

Liang Si and Guo Sheng were hesitating which family they belonged to. An old woman was carrying a basin from the steps by the river to go ashore. Her legs were too weak for a while, and she was about to fall on her back to the green brick. The old woman struggled in the air with her terrified hands. Hands pulled her up.

Guo Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to help, and helped the old woman to the shore. Liang Si went to pick up the clothes, swept them in the water, put them in a basin, and carried them to the shore.

The old woman was old, and because of a fall, she could only lean on the shore at this time, dizzy, and she couldn't see the two of them clearly.

Guo Sheng asked: "Old man, where is your home? We will take you home."

The old woman pointed to the family by the river, and Guo Sheng helped the old woman go there.

The old woman pushed open the door, and it took a while to see the two of them clearly. Guo Sheng looked at the tea at the table and gave the old woman a cup.

After drinking the tea, the old woman gradually regained her energy, and saw that Liang Si's trousers were all wet, she hurriedly apologized, Liang Si waved her hand, expressing that she didn't care, and wanted to go out with Guo Sheng, but the old woman insisted, walking around to pull Liang Si , Said: "My son is about the same size as you. I quickly changed into a pair of pants to avoid catching cold. You people who are outside, you should take good care of yourself. If you get hurt or hurt, how distressed a mother should be."

Afraid that she might fall, Liang Si followed her into the inner room.

This is a student's room. In the room are the Four Books and Five Classics as well as books with various annotations. On the table is a copy of "Zhu Zi Jie Ji", which is densely annotated in small letters, and there are various classics and histories beside it. Discussions are all comments on current affairs.

The old woman brought a pair of trousers, watched Liang Si staring at the scroll on the table, and said, "This is what my son usually writes."

The more Liang Si looked at the word, the more he felt it was familiar. At this moment, his heart skipped a beat when he saw the old woman, and he asked, "Old man, where did your son go?"

"Going to Beijing to rush for the exam, I don't know what's going on." The old woman's eyes were full of miss.

The old woman opened the curtain to go out, Liang Si said: "Please call the man who came with me outside the house."

The old woman was a little puzzled and nodded.

Guo Sheng opened the curtain and entered. Liang Si was taking off his trousers, and was sticking his body straight to his body. Two long and powerful legs were exposed under his body. Guo Sheng froze at the door.

Liang Si watched him come in and said, "Hongmao, come here."

Something strange flashed across Guo Sheng's face, as if a blush flashed, before Liang Si noticed it carefully, Guo Sheng had already walked over and held his arm.

Liang Si paused, at first he just wanted to talk to him, but he didn't expect to come to help him, so Liang Si put one hand on his shoulder and the other to lift up his pants.

Liang Si whispered while putting on his trousers: "I think the old woman seems to be Gao Xiuping's mother, what should we say?"

Guo Sheng turned his head from the stiff face to the neck, Liang Si saw that his face was a little red, his eyes glanced over Liang Si's lower body inadvertently, as if he had touched something, he recklessly moved to another place.

Liang Si had never seen him lose his composure before, he was a little dazed for a while, and something strange arose in his heart.Then Guo Sheng said: "Don't talk about Gao Xiuping, just say that we are Gao Xiuping's friends."

Liang Si nodded.

The two went out, the sun was shining outside, Liang Si went to look at Guo Sheng's face, there was no flush, but the strange feeling still existed in his heart.

The old woman watched the two go out, and said: "You two benefactors, why don't you leave after eating here."

This time, Liang Si and Guo Sheng didn't hesitate and nodded directly.

Liang Si and Guo Sheng helped the old woman add firewood to cook, but the old woman repeatedly said that she asked them to have a meal, and even asked a benefactor to help. Liang Si and Guo Sheng also said that the old woman was too polite.

From the conversation, Liang Si and Guo Sheng had confirmed that the old woman was Gao Xiuping's mother.

Liang Si and Guo Sheng lived here for three days. Hearing that the old woman missed her son very much, Guo Sheng proposed to take Aunt Gao to the capital to take care of her. Touched, said: "Do you know my son?"

Liang Si and Guo Sheng looked at each other.

Guo Sheng nodded.

Aunt Gao held his hand and said excitedly, "How is he? Does he eat and drink well?"

Guo Sheng paused: "Xiu Ping is a very talented person, he won the number one prize." Aunt Gao's eyes lit up, Guo Sheng hesitated, and continued, "He originally wanted to take you back to the capital himself, and he really wanted to take you back to the capital in person. To tell you the good news, which I am sure he wants to share with you more than anyone else..."

Aunt Gao seemed to sense something, and asked nervously, "Where is he now? Where is he?"

Liang Si couldn't bear Guo Sheng's embarrassment, and said first: "Your condolences, we brought his ashes."

Aunt Gao's face suddenly turned pale, and she let go of Guo Sheng's hand, and Guo Sheng held her hand behind his back: "Xiu Ping was framed to death, and we have rehabilitated him, you...sorrow and obedience."

Aunt Gao's face was full of tears, Guo Sheng and Liang Si couldn't bear it, and they comforted her repeatedly. Liang Si went to fetch Gao Xiuping's ashes, and Aunt Gao held the urn, mournfully, and murmured: "Xiu Ping, Xiu Ping..."

Liang Si was afraid that Mrs. Gao would be hurt if she cried outside the hospital, and that she would get sick easily if blown by the wind, so she went into the house with Mrs. Gao on her back and put her on the bed.

Aunt Gao hugged the urn tightly, her eyes as dead ashes.

Liang Si and Guo Sheng didn't know how to persuade them, but the most painful thing was that a white-haired person gave away a black-haired person.

Guo Sheng called Liang Si out of his house, and the two stayed outside. After Madam Gao cried for a long time and passed out from crying, Liang Si and Guo Sheng came in, Guo Sheng went to fetch water, Liang Si added firewood to boil water, and Guo Sheng tried Test the temperature of the water, use a towel to wet Aunt Gao's face, gently wipe off the tears, and when Aunt Gao wakes up, Guo Sheng comforts him and says, Gao Xiuping is his sworn brother, and you are his mother relative.

Aunt Gao didn't speak, and Guo Sheng didn't stop holding his hand, without any impatience.

Liang Si quietly stood aside and looked at him, he knew Guo Sheng was born in a famous family, so he must have never done these things; and since he was in a high position, he probably didn't know how to comfort others even more than himself, but he did his best.Liang Si felt that Guo Sheng was really good, very good, there was no one better than him in this world, he couldn't move his eyes when he was good, as if every frown and smile had light shining into his heart, causing his heart to vibrate.

Guo Sheng turned his head to look at him as if in response, Liang Si woke up like a person in a dream, or fell into a deep sleep, in which, Liang Si quickly moved his eyes away, not daring to look at him.

Guo Sheng slightly closed his lower eyelids.

Because Aunt Gao was too sad, the two inquired about the burial in Huizhou, told the aunt, and got her consent, and started to arrange the funeral.

It has been five days since these things were done, and Aunt Gao gradually got out of bed, and arranged the burial with Guo Sheng and Liang Si, without being immersed in sadness all day long.The date when the imperial court invited her down was approaching. Guo Sheng wanted to take his aunt back to the capital to take care of her. The two persuaded her for a few days before Aunt Gao agreed.

The two packed their things, Guo Sheng called Liang Si out, Guo Sheng said: "Mother has been living in Huizhou, I'm afraid I won't get used to it when I arrive in Beijing, I want to bring some Huizhou specialties, so that she can eat in her free time."

Liang Si nodded in agreement, and said, "I heard that Huizhou seems to be particularly famous for its tea."

The two walked to the market, and Guo Sheng was not satisfied with the several tea shops he entered. Liang Si saw Guo Sheng sniffing and observing the tea leaves, and felt that Guo Sheng was a man of genius: "You also have research on tea?"

Seeing Liang Si's gaze, Guo Sheng laughed a little and said, "Since ancient times, literati have loved tea, wine, and the four treasures of the study. I'm just arty and know a little bit."

Liang Si's eyes were still bright, and he said in his heart: If you are arty, there will be no elegant people in this world.

The more Liang Si looked at Guo Sheng now, the more he couldn't take his eyes off him. He knew in his heart what he was thinking, and he was afraid that he was no longer innocent, or that he would find it hard to control himself. ...can't even be friends...

Liang Si was afraid that Guo Sheng would find out what was going on in his mind, so he quickly moved away from his eyes that had been staring at Guo Sheng, and said: "You pick it first, I'll go outside the door for a walk."

Guo Sheng nodded.
