Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng

Chapter 6 Transition

When Shen Liang walked into the government office, Gongsun Ce took a look at the sky, unknowingly, the sky was dyed a faint red, it turned out that he and Bao Zheng had been away for a day.

Thinking about how he used to run around with Bao Zheng, sometimes when he got busy, he often forgot the time.

Turning to look at Bao Zheng beside him, the other party was looking at him, so Gongsun Ce smiled and said, "You have worked hard today." But it was very kind and warm. Looking at the smiling person in front of him, Bao Zheng couldn't help feeling a little warm in his heart.

"Do you want to go to the academy tomorrow?" Bao Zheng wanted to say something polite, but when it came to his lips, it turned into this sentence.

"Go." Gongsun Ce nodded and said.

"Then see you at the academy tomorrow." Bao Zheng cupped his hands and said.

"Okay." Gongsun Ce also cupped his hands and said with a chuckle.

***********

The next day, Gongsun Ce handed over the prescription he wrote to Uncle Fu, the housekeeper, and said seriously, "Uncle Fu, this is the prescription I read from an ancient book. When my mother wakes up, you can show it to her." , if mother has no objection, you can go grab the medicine and brew it."

The butler, Fu Bo, hurriedly responded.

Gongsun Ce thought about it for a long time last night. At this time, he didn't know where his master was, and the master's reputation was not obvious. Although his medical skills were superb, if his mother's illness continued, he was really afraid that it would be too late, so he thought of copying ancient books. The prescription, my mother has been ill for a long time and has become a doctor, and I can see a thing or two about the prescription. The prescription I wrote by myself, my mother should be able to see the weight. As long as my mother is willing to take this medicine, I will not be slow in the future. Slowly adjust the prescription, and the mother's illness will be cured!

Gongsun Ce thought in his heart, while walking slowly towards the academy, but the premise of all this now is that mother believes in his own prescription.

Because Gongsun Ce was thinking about his own thoughts, he walked a little carelessly, and he didn't even know that someone was calling him behind him, until suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder, Gongsun Ce was startled, turned his head, and saw Bao Zheng frowning at him, Can't help but smile awkwardly.

"What are you thinking about so preoccupied?" Bao Zheng stared at Gongsun Ce and asked.

Gongsun Ce's expression turned bitter for a moment, and he lowered his head and muttered, "I'm thinking about my mother..."

Bao Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "What happened?"

Gongsun Ce slowly talked about his mother.Bao Zheng listened intently.

At this moment, they were standing in the bamboo forest outside the academy. At this moment, the brilliance of the morning sun was slowly shedding, and mottled spots of light jumped between the two of them. Almost all the students in the academy were boarding, only he and Bao Zheng and Bao Zheng didn't have a place to stay, Bao Zheng had no money, and his mother was reluctant to part with him.

At this moment, on the road leading to the academy, there were only the two of them at such a moment.

After listening, Bao Zheng asked with a serious face, "Are you sure there is nothing wrong with the prescription of this ancient book?"

Gongsun Ce nodded affirmatively, thought for a while, and said, "I learned it from a doctor once. Even if this prescription doesn't help my mother's condition, it is absolutely harmless."

Bao Zheng seemed to be thinking about something, and after a while he finally spoke, "Although this is the case, let the doctor look at it before using it in the future."

Gongsun Ce smiled wryly, Bao Zheng didn't believe him?But there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't tell the person in front of him that he had treated the emperor, the queen mother's eye disease, and Nan Xia Zhan Zhao's poison, right? ?

Bao Zheng watched Gongsun Ce lower his eyes with a sullen expression on his face. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, so he said dryly, "Don't worry, Fu Yin's wife is a lucky person, so she must be fine."

When Gongsun Ce heard the words, he raised his eyes in surprise, a person with good fortune?I remember Master Bao didn't like to say these empty words... Then he smiled again, was this to comfort himself?

"Well, I believe it." Gongsun Ce nodded with a smile, "My mother likes to burn incense and pay respects to the Buddha, and also likes to do good deeds. There must be good fortune."

Bao Zheng looked at Gongsun Ce and smiled, and then he was relieved, the person in front of him was really not suitable for such a bitter and depressed look.

"Let's go. If we don't hurry up, we will be late!" Bao Zheng looked up at the sky and said to Gongsun Ce.

Only then did Gongsun Ce exclaim, he just came to the academy yesterday, and he hasn't attended the dean's class yet, and the dean's class is the most severe, it seems to be this morning.So, Gongsun Ce panicked, turned around and started running. Bao Zheng was startled when he saw Gongsun Ce running, and then hurriedly chased after him. Why did this man run so fast all of a sudden?

After panting and running into the class room, Gongsun Ce looked left and right, and then he was relieved. Seeing that the classmates were fighting, it means that the class has not started yet, right?

He found a seat and sat down, seeing that Bao Zheng, who was running behind him, also sat beside him, Gongsun Ce blinked in confusion, Bao Zheng was in the same class as him today?

Bao Zheng waved the four treasures of the study and the books, turned his head calmly, and said seriously, "Gongsun Ce, the principal is teaching in the next room."

Gongsun Ce was stunned for a while, then let out a cry, jumped up with a bang, hurriedly grabbed the book box, turned around and rushed towards the door, feeling a little depressed in his heart, Bao Zheng must have done it on purpose! !Don't remind yourself when you see yourself in the wrong room, and tell yourself when you almost put out the four treasures of the study and books!Why did the old-fashioned and serious people start to play tricks on others? !

Bao Zheng watched Gongsun Ce rush out quickly, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, then lowered his head, spread out the book, and began to read the book seriously, but his mind was a little distracted, thinking about the bewildered and blinking look of that man... I couldn't help it I just want to tease him...

*********

Standing on the seat with his hands behind his back, Gongsun Ce talked in a clear voice, and finally smiled when he saw the dean who was holding a book and nodding with satisfaction, Gongsun Ce was also relieved, and when he sat down, it was as expected , the dean even said three "good" words!

Hearing the dean's three "good" words, Gongsun Ce didn't feel happy at all. He just repeated what he had read and memorized. So, this time, Gongsun Ce's face Instead of showing the kind of youthful complacency back then, he showed a face of shyness.

The dean was even happier, and the students on the left and right of Gongsun Ce also showed a little curiosity and kindness, but a person named Zhan Jun on the left of Gongsun Ce turned his head slightly with disdain.

Gongsun Ce glanced at it, thinking of the final ending of Zhan Jun, and then looked at the dean who was talking with a book, the blood that the dean had been stained with, and the final ending...Gongsun Ce couldn't help but dull.

I don't know, can he change these endings?

***********

I met Bao Zheng in class in the piano room.

Looking at the man in white with loose hair, intoxicated by the sound of the piano, this man named Meng Fang, Gongsun Ce sighed softly.

Gongsun Ce looked at Meng Fang in a daze, but Bao Zheng on Gongsun Ce's left frowned slightly. He had just signaled to Gongsun Ce several times, but Gongsun Ce didn't pay attention, did he really not?Or...are you angry because of your teasing?

"This is Feng Qiuhuang." After playing, Meng Fang smiled, Meng Fang's smile was very gentle, with an affinity that made people want to get closer. "Among you, some of you are new to the rhythm, some are not, some like to play the piano, and some just like to study the Four Books and Five Classics... It doesn't matter if you deal with it or be serious, I don't force it, but I hope everyone can pay a little bit. Sincerely for the guqin, or flute, Xiao, etc. in your hand, in today's class, you will try to play the tunes you know, it doesn't matter if you don't know, just play casually, let me know everyone Base."

So, they played one by one in turn. Gongsun Ce listened carefully. He used to be sloppy with the rhythm, but he was indeed very talented. Later, following Bao Zheng to solve the case, traveling all over the world, he saw more things, experienced more, and his mood gradually changed. When Bao Zheng settled in Kaifeng Mansion, he would play the piano when he was not on business. Sometimes, Bao Zheng I will also go to his yard to read books, and then listen to him playing the piano...

Looking at Meng Fang who was listening intently in front of him, Gongsun Ce sighed softly in his heart, this person really likes the rhythm, but, no matter how much he likes the rhythm, can't he offset the hatred in his heart?

Listen, listen, it's Bao Zheng's turn, Gongsun Ce couldn't help but smile, he knew that at this moment Master Bao doesn't understand the rhythm, in terms of rhythm, Master Bao is really clumsy.

Gongsun Ce's smile was caught by Bao Zheng's eyes, and he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He smiled like this because he wasn't angry with himself, right?While Bao Zheng was thinking, he caressed casually a few times, and then stepped back.

Meng Fang listened and just smiled.

Then, it was Gongsun Ce's turn.

Gongsun Ce put both hands on the piano, caressed it lightly, and then flicked and pressed it, and the song "Drunkard" poured out.

Bao Zheng just listened at first, but then he was a little surprised. Looking at the young man playing the piano not far ahead, from Bao Zheng's perspective, he could only see a side face, but it was enough for Bao Zheng to be stunned. Serious and focused, that silhouette seemed to carry a kind of sadness that he couldn't understand...and a kind of intoxication.Under the halo of the light yellow sunlight in the afternoon, the side face of the man actually had a dreamlike feeling.

It was as if everything around him had disappeared, only the piano in his hand and the dull entanglement in his heart remained.

At the beginning, Meng Fang was overjoyed, and then he was satisfied, but after hearing it now, Meng Fang couldn't help being surprised, and then put away the smile on his face, and listened intently, frowning while listening.

After Gongsun Ce finished playing, and when he lightly pressed his hands on the strings to stop the vibrato, Meng Fang said softly, "Your name is Gongsun Ce?"

"Yes! Student Gongsun Ce!" Gongsun Ce slightly lowered his head and cupped his hands.

"What's the name of your song?"

"Drunkenness."

"Drunkenness? Hehe...what a name!"
