[Rebirth] The lord wants a minister to die

The rain didn't stop, and the clatter of horseshoes galloped across the ten-mile long street. The gloomy night sky immersed the entire capital in darkness, except for a few wind lanterns hanging unsteadily on unknown shops.The two horses were pulled to a stop in front of Duke Zhong's mansion, and the two men who jumped off the horses walked to the mansion door one after the other, and knocked on the door with a "boom".

Not long after, the man who opened the door was a young man wearing a coir raincoat and carrying a lamp. He secretly stretched out his head to look at the person who came, and asked, "Who is it?"

The man in front of him took off his bamboo hat. He was a dark-skinned, burly man, with thick eyebrows as sharp as knives, and piercing eyes.He took out a green dragon and emerald jade pendant from his bosom, and handed it to the young servant, with a deep voice: "My servant, Yang Kun and Yang Chugong, come to visit the third son, He Zhan."

The servant took the jade pendant over and took a closer look at it. The word "He Peizhi" was engraved on the back of the jade pendant, and it was indeed the jade pendant of the third young master.He looked vigilantly at the person behind Yang Kun. Compared with Yang Kun, that person looked very thin, holding a large object tightly in his arms, which was tightly wrapped in cloth, and he couldn't tell what it was.The wide bamboo hat even covered the man's shoulders, as if the wind could blow him away if it was stronger.The servant couldn't quite see the man's face, he could only hear his voice as soft as a mosquito, imitating Yang Kun and saying, "I'm Shen Yu, Shen Huaijue, come to visit the third son, He Zhan."

The boy rubbed his nose, raised his chin and said, "Wait, I'll report."

At that time, He Zhan was eating with Ning Jin, and He Zhan made some dishes for Ning Jin.Ning Jin's face was still flushed, he didn't talk much, he just ate his food in silence.He Zhan wondered if he was too strict with this child, making Ning Jin feel bound to do things, not as aggressive as Ning Zuo and Ning You.

The night watchman came in with wind and rain, bowed and offered the jade pendant, and said, "Two young masters came outside, one named Yang Kun and the other named Shen Yu, and they said they came to visit you."

He Zhan raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were lit with surprise. He took the jade pendant, held it tightly in his palm, and asked, "You mean Chu Gong is here!? Please come in quickly!"

When the boy turned around to invite him, He Zhan hurriedly called him: "No need, I'll go to meet him in person." His footsteps were lighter than usual, and he strode towards the main entrance with quick strides. He Zhan is holding an umbrella.

Ning Jin suddenly raised his head, if he heard correctly, the person who asked He Zhan to greet him in person was Chu Gong?

Is it the one that He Zhan has to read at the moment of life and death, Chu Gong?

Not to mention how excited He Zhan was, the blood in his whole body was boiling with excitement.Yang Kun, as long as he thinks of Yang Kun, He Zhan can think of the cold wind and bright moon on the battlefield, the sunset in the desert, these accompanied him through the most thrilling years of his life.I still remember the day when the setting sun on the desert turned blood-red, the figure of Yang Kun riding his horse seemed to be wrapped in a raging fire, and the spear in his hand kicked away the enemy troops surrounding He Zhan, blood spattered and wailed everywhere.Yang Kun's voice pierced through many obstacles, and roared calmly and vigorously: "Pei Zhi, I'm here!"

The door was slowly opened, and the figure standing in the darkness was broad-shouldered, tall and burly, with thick eyebrows and sharp eyes, and the corners of his mouth widened. He smiled and said, "Pei Zhi, I'm here."

This greeting seemed like a world away, He Zhan even thought for a moment that he was dreaming.He held the hand under the sleeve very tightly, and when he was sure that this person really existed, he slowly let go, sighed and said, "It's good if you come."

Yang Kun pushed Shen Yu behind him forward and said, "This is Shen Yu, my friend." Shen Yu hugged the box tightly in her arms, saluted He Zhan and said, "Shen Yu, Shen Huaijue, I've met Mr. He San."

He Zhan nodded and invited them in: "You're welcome. Chu Gong's friends are my friends."

Yang Kun patted Shen Yu's stiff shoulder, and said in a broad voice: "Yes, Pei Zhi is not the same as those rich men, and he doesn't have a bad temper. You are too polite, but it makes him unhappy."

He Zhan laughed twice when he heard the words.Shen Yu only nodded, and looked up at He Zhan secretly, only to see that this young man was dressed in a moon-white robe and his hair was tied up indiscriminately. Zhilan Yushu", presumably is to describe a character like him.

The Zhongguo Mansion is very large, and the gardens are exquisitely built, so it sinks in the night, but it has a special charm.Shen Yu couldn't help but look around, afraid of losing etiquette, so she quickly closed her eyes.

Yang Kun walked side by side with He Zhan, with the wind blowing under his feet and his face glowing red, he raised his voice and said, "It's been two years since we left Qingzhou, now it's a great pleasure to see Pei Zhi again."

He Zhan's consciousness is still in a trance, as if he is in the clouds, and what he hears and hears are hallucinations.Seeing that he didn't speak, Yang Kun thought He Zhan was at a loss for his sudden visit, and said awkwardly: "Huaijue also said that it's not good to visit at night, I just want to see you in a hurry, isn't it okay?"

Only then did He Zhan come back to his senses, and quickly replied: "No, how could it be! I'm... very happy to see you again."

Yang Kun grinned and said, "That's good." After he finished speaking, he sighed and smiled: "You have changed a lot in the past two years." He Zhan is the only one named "Merry Man".He Zhan is not like the golden-haired bird that came out of Fugui Township, but like the wild warbler in February, the most handsome young man in golden clothes.But when we meet again today, Yang Kun always feels that He Zhan has changed a lot, but he can't tell what has changed.

He Zhan introduced Yang Kun and Shen Yu to Nangezi.The orange light in the pavilion flooded softly, filling the room.Yang Kun saw that most of the food on the table had been served, and there was a young boy sitting behind the table, wearing a small black robe, with the same color as his eyes, black enough to drip ink.Seeing the child staring at him, Yang Kun thought he had frightened him, so he gave him a naive smile, then turned to He Zhan and said, "Whose child is this? He looks so handsome."

He Zhan looked at Ning Jin and replied, "Oh, this is my nephew Ning Jin, who is studying with me at home."

Yang Kun seemed to have followed into his own house without being restrained. He neatly untied the spear from his back, took off his coir raincoat and bamboo hat, and said with a smile, "It's pretty good." Shen Yu stood there motionless, afraid I did something wrong, broke the rules of the family, and annoyed the master.Knowing that he was worried about this, Yang Kun said, "You take it off too, put your things down too, no one here will snatch yours."

Shen Yu nodded slightly, and glanced at He Zhan, He Zhan only smiled lightly, as if he didn't care, which made Shen Yu feel relieved.Shen Yu put down the box in his hand, and the body under the coir raincoat was as thin as a stick, and he looked really weak.He was morbidly pale, with high cheekbones and a handsome face.

He Zhan asked: "Have you all had dinner?"

Yang Kun said, "I ate two steamed buns on the way, and I'm still not hungry. Huaijue, do you still eat?"

Shen Yu was a little hungry looking at the food on the table. After all, the buns were not tasty and too dry, but after Yang Kun said so, it was hard for him to sit down, so he just shook his head and said "not hungry".He Zhan saw that Shen Yu was always looking at the table, so he probably wasn't full yet.He Zhan said, "Let's eat some more. Chu Gong, sit down too and have a bowl of wine with me."

Yang Kun sat down generously.He Zhan ordered his servants to add two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and brought up a jug of good wine.With the master's consent, Shen Yu didn't think too much about it, just picked up the chopsticks and ate it. Forget about his etiquette, righteousness and shame, let's eat when he is full first.

Yang Kun touched the back of his head and saw that Shen Yu was really hungry.It's still Pei Zhi who is careful, unlike him, who can't see other people's thoughts and always makes things difficult for others.

He Zhan poured Yang Kun a bowl of wine.Yang Kun saw that the young man named Ning Jin was still staring at him, as if looking at something weird, and said with a smile, "Do you want to drink too?" Ning Jin moved his lips, but He Zhan cut off: "Little boy, what kind of wine do you want to drink?"

Yang Kun picked up a bowl, served Ning Jinman wine, and put it in front of him: "Would you like to try it?"

Ning Jin shook his head and said, "Third Uncle won't let me drink it, and I won't drink it."

"Hey, the little guy is quite obedient. Your nephew is really good, and it doesn't hurt in vain." Yang Kun was overjoyed and said, "However, how can a man not drink?"

He Zhan said to Ning Jin: "Drink as much as you want, I won't hold you back. Don't drink too much, you will get drunk easily."

No boy could resist the temptation of wine, He Zhanyun agreed, Ning Jin's eyes were unbelievably bright, he lowered his head and took a sip, but was so hot that he stuck out his tongue and choked tears.Both He Zhan and Yang Kun couldn't help laughing, and Ning Jin's face turned red from laughing.

He Zhan patted Ning Jin on the back, motioning him to eat more vegetables, and then asked Yang Kun, "How has Chu Gong been these two years?"

"It's still the same, wandering around, and occasionally picking up some strength is enough to survive." Yang Kun drank heavily, smacking his lips and said, "The prairie in Huyanbu last year is completely different from the green mountains and beautiful waters in Qingzhou. Yanbu is like the hometown of eagles. All the men there are good at riding and arching, and even the daughter can gallop thousands of miles on horseback. I danced at the bonfire party with the people of the Huyanbu ethnic group. Wa also enthusiastically taught me Huyanbu language. If Pei Zhi was here, he would definitely be the Hakuta there."

Ning Jin interjected and asked, "What is Hakuda?"

"The most popular person means a good person." Yang Kun smiled, his eyes flicked over Ning Jin.He Zhan asked again: "What happened after that? Where did Chu Gong go?"

Yang Kun said: "Afterwards, I went all the way north along Huyanbu, passed Loushaguan, and stayed in the ancient city of Shangqing for a long time. Don't you like those antiques? The antique market there is very lively, have you heard of it? "

He Zhan said: "I know. The ancient city of Shangqing is famous for its antiques, and the antique market there is also the largest and most diverse. You can bring back a lot of rare things if you go there. You know that I told you about the small-leaf red sandalwood Buddha beads before." Is it?"

Yang Kun nodded: "I remember, I heard that it was an old object used by Master Wuhui of Xiangmiaotang. Because a bead was twisted, it flowed into the hands of merchants, and was highly praised."

He Zhan said: "Yes, that's the one. When I was traveling in Shangqing, I happened to see that red sandalwood Buddha bead being auctioned. The starting price was 3000 taels."

Yang Kun said: "Hey, is this thing so valuable? How many families will eat and drink for a year?"

"Those people want to buy it to pray for the safety of the Buddha, and accumulate happiness and well-being for several generations. How can they put 3000 taels in their eyes?"

The two chatted happily, and a bowl of wine had already been poured in a blink of an eye.Ning Jin sat aside blankly and could only listen.It seems that He Zhan knows something about what Yang Kun said, and Yang Kun knows something about what He Zhan said.The two exchanged a word, Ning Jin couldn't get in the mouth, he just felt that his heart was suffocated. It can be seen that He Zhan has been watching Yang Kun, and often shows a very relaxed smile. Ning Jin rarely sees him smiling like this.

Ning Jin felt that there was something sour in his heart surging up, making him want to drop the bowl in his hand, even if he was dismissed as naive, he didn't care, as long as He Zhan could look at him and tell him where the ancient city of Shangqing was , talk about what Xiaoye Zitan is, and who is Master Wuhui.

The wine glass in Ning Jin's hand "accidentally" fell to the ground and broke into pieces in an instant, even Shen Yu, who had been lowering her head to eat, was startled.Startled, Ning Jin reached out to pick up the fragment, and squeezed the fragment firmly in his palm. The tingling pain from his palm made him frown.

"Don't touch it!" He Zhan shouted, grabbed Ning Jin's hand, and the blood-stained tile slipped from his palm.He Zhan opened his palm, frowning deeper than Ning Jin, as if the injured person was He Zhan and not Ning Jin, he said: "If you fall, you will fall, what do you care about that cup?"

Hey, this is the dragon claw that calms the mountains and rivers!Afraid of Ning Jin's pain, He Zhan exhaled lightly and blew on Ning Jin's behalf, comforting him: "It doesn't hurt, it's just a little bit of skin scratches, very shallow." Ning Jin shook his head and said, "I don't hurt."

He Zhan wiped Ning Jin's blood with a square scarf. Seeing that the wound was very shallow, he whispered to Ning Jin to be careful. Ning Jin nodded and sat next to He Zhan, staying very close to him.

Yang Kun smiled and said: "Pei Zhizhen can deal with children, if it were me, it would definitely not work."

He Zhan said: "Ning Jin is obedient, which makes people worry. By the way, why did you come to the capital?"

Yang Kun put his hand back from holding the wine bowl, and after a pause, he said, "There is something I want to trouble you with." He Zhan raised his glass, and the strong aroma of wine filled the air, and said respectfully, "Why are we so polite? If there's anything, just say it."

Yang Kun groaned again and again, clinked glasses with He Zhan, and drank it down in one gulp.He said: "My little brother wants to meet someone who knows the official family. You are the only friend of mine in Beijing. If there is no other way, I will definitely not trouble you." He patted Shen Yu on the shoulder , Said to He Zhan: "He has been wronged."

The author has something to say: He Zhan (raises hand): Is it too late to change the character setting?I want to be a traitor, a very aggressive traitor.

Xiao Ningjin (crying): Does Third Uncle want Jin'er?

Ning Jin (laughs): Alright, He Qing, if you can go against me, that would be very interesting.At that time, you will concentrate on dealing with me and have no time to care about others.

He Zhan (raises hand): I want to be cannon fodder, the kind that dies halfway, is that okay?
