The Eight Winds of Rebirth

Yizheng looked at him contemptuously: "Who was the one who boasted about Haikou before? With your current ability, don't say that two people go to bed together, even if I go to bed with both hands, you can't get out of bed. If you want to go to the battlefield, dream."

Zhao Ze blushed from being ridiculed and glared at him, his eyes dimmed suddenly after a flicker, and he stopped howling, only trembling all over, obviously angry.

Xue Yiyang quickly came up to help him, and it took a long time for Zhao Ze to stand still, and said anxiously, "Where is the injury? Do you want to see a doctor?"

Zhao Ze didn't speak, pushed Xue Yiyang away and limped out.

Xue Yiyang looked at his desolate back, wanted to chase after him, but then she just said to Bao Qing, Zhao Ze's attendant eunuch: "Follow your son, and send him back to the palace properly."

After Baoqing left, the atmosphere in the arena was a bit delicate for a while. Yizheng looked around, and then felt that he might have done something wrong, and looked at Hou Bingchen awkwardly.

"General..."

But Hou Bingchen patted his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it can be regarded as an experience. My Zhao family can't produce a soft persimmon. If he wants to make progress, he will figure it out."

However, Yizheng thought about Zhao Zefang's deeply shocked appearance, and felt that all this was justifiable. As a noble son who grew up in the palace, he heard nothing but flattering words. The depth is very normal, maybe I shouldn't make fun of him with this.

Thinking about it like this, Yizheng felt a little depressed, and he didn't even say hello when he turned around, and disappeared after a stab.

The people around seemed to be quite used to his rushing manner, they didn't think it was strange, they talked and laughed again.

Hou Bingchen said to Gu Xiangtan: "Do you want Lingfo to take a look around? Let Yuan'er take it with you."

Gu Xiangtan looked at Zhao Yuan, smiled and nodded.

It's the season of falling flowers in early autumn, but the Shenwu General's Mansion is still breezy, and the osmanthus is fragrant. There is a huge green lake in the west courtyard. The running water brought in from outside the mansion is as clear as a mirror. There are sparkling ripples.

Standing by the lake, Gu Xiangtan looked at the school of fish jumping under his feet, and couldn't help sighing: "Such a good place, I think the only thing missing is a hostess."

Zhao Yuan looked at him and said, "Third brother doesn't want to."

"General Hou doesn't want to, I'm afraid it's the emperor who wants to."

Zhao Yuan squinted her eyes, and said indifferently, "I can't help him."

Gu Xiangtan rolled his eyes and asked cautiously: "General Hou still misses his dead wife?"

Zhao Yuan paused and nodded.

Back then Hou Bingchen fought with the great prince on the battlefield and did not return to Beijing for a long time. The princess thought about the blood of the Hou family, so it was rare for her to point out a marriage for him. He didn't want to, because he was afraid that he would be rude and vulgar, and would delay the other party. Who knew that after returning from the great victory, he fell in love with the woman at first sight, and the two became good friends with Qin Jin, but the woman became pregnant within a year. However, she suffered from dystocia during childbirth, and passed away with the child.

General Hou was heartbroken when he heard the bad news at the border. If he hadn't been responsible for his family and country, General Shenwu would have gone with his wife at that time. Now that more than ten years have passed, the pain is still lingering in his heart and it is difficult to heal.

"Infatuation begets love, and love binds."

Whether it's little love or big love, everyone in the world is bound by these things, and then they can't help themselves everywhere, looking forward and backward.

Gu Xiangtan's words made Zhao Yuan realize something. The two of them walked side by side from the lake for a long time, and walked through the corridor to the garden.

It wasn't until looking at the busy people ahead that Gu Xiangtan smiled again.

"What is this doing?"

There are also several grape trellises in Shenwu General's Mansion, which are taller and larger than those planted by Gu Xiangtan when he was in Luli. In the golden autumn season, the grapes are harvested in abundance, and round and plump fruits hang down from the trellises. Gently swing, crystal clear.And at this moment, Yizheng is clinging to it like a little monkey. He has a neat figure, occasionally hangs upside down, occasionally hangs sideways, and turns over and over there without hurting a little bit of flesh. Gu Xiangtan was amazed to see a bag full of grapes wrapped in his clothes.

Yizheng saw them wandering above, and shook his hands and said, "Would you like to come together? I've tasted it. It's so sweet. I just picked some wine to drink."

Gu Xiangtan didn't know what to think of, his eyes lit up.

Zhao Yuan saw the person next to him smoothing the front of his shirt, and even started to roll up his sleeves.

Halfway through the roll, his arm was blocked by one hand, Gu Xiangtan turned around and met Zhao Yuan with a slightly disapproving expression of frowning.

Gu Xiangtan smiled: "It's okay, have you forgotten, I used to pick the grapes in our yard with Su Xi when they were ripe." Of course, we can only climb up when Fu Yalian is not around.

Seeing the long-lost light on Gu Xiangtan's face, Zhao Yuan hesitated for a moment, and relaxed her grip for a moment.

Gu Xiangtan patted Zhao Yuan reassuringly, looked left and right, but no one was there anyway, so he tied another knot on the hem of his clothes, and when he was ready, he grabbed the railings on both sides and climbed up.

Of course, he is not as strong as Yizheng, and he eats vegetarian food all the year round, so his limbs are always lacking in strength, but Gu Xiangtan, with his childhood experience and being careful, the pergola is also strong, and he slowly and leisurely let him Got to the top.

Gu Xiangtan looked down at Zhao Yuan from top to bottom, and saw him standing in place and looking up at himself, his eyes were focused and unblinking, and his face was full of caution.Gu Xiangtan smiled at him, raised his hand and picked a grape, peeled it and put it in his mouth, then wrinkled his nose.

"Sour and sweet..."

Yizheng still had the energy to care about Gu Xiangtan's movements, and said from a distance: "Don't pick the ones that are clumped together, but the ones that are scattered, the ones with firm flesh are sweeter." He said, pointing fingers, "Here, here , the one in the past is just behind you, this one is suitable for eating directly, and there is another one on the left, pick it up for me, this one is good for soaking in wine."

Gu Xiangtan heard him speak clearly and logically, and didn't mind Yizheng's commands. He turned around slowly, and after adjusting his posture, he slowly touched the place, and then asked, "Did you grow these grapes?"

"That's right," Yizheng said: "It was originally in the government office where we lived before. I saw that it was about to be familiar, so I begged the general to transplant it here."

"Well, no wonder these are better than ordinary grapes."

Hearing the praise, Yizheng smiled, and his wheat-colored face was bright with sunshine: "What's the point of planting some grapes, I can also plant wheat, rice, and many fruit trees and crops."

Yizheng's accent is roughly the same as Daye's official dialect, but if you listen carefully, you can still feel some cadences, which are very strange, and I am afraid that he has suffered a lot of criticism because of it.

Gu Xiangtan said with a smile: "The genius doctor is very skilled in medicine, I never thought that he is so proficient in farming."

Yizheng didn't hide his secrets: "These are all taught by my master in Nanman, he knows more than me, but he died before I could finish learning."

"Oh? It seems that there are indeed quite a few strange people in the Southern Barbarians."

Yizheng snorted: "Many people in Daye are self-willed. They always think that Nanman is a remote and miserable place. In fact, there are powerful people everywhere. If everyone is like the current emperor who doesn't want to make progress and just wants to live in peace, no matter how powerful The family business will be ruined."

After Yizheng finished speaking, he remembered that something was wrong. Hou Bingchen told him that he could not talk like this after entering Beijing, let alone talking about officials and the emperor, so he secretly went to see Gu Xiangtan, but saw that he was just smiling, calmly and peacefully, without the slightest hint of indifference. There is no unpleasant color.

"It is said that Daye's spiritual Buddha is kind and considerate, and he is a living bodhisattva in the world. I thought it was nothing more than that. Now that I am talking to you, I find it really comfortable. At least it is much better than those high-ranking officials who always put on airs and speak sour words. It's gone." Yizheng sighed suddenly.

Gu Xiangtan looked at him: "It's also very interesting to talk to you."

Then the two looked at each other and smiled.

Gu Xiangtan picked the most shiny bunch of grapes in front of him, Zhao Yuan, who was still staring at the place with his head down, waved and said: "Yuanqing..." He wanted to say, this bunch is for you to eat, then go on , who knows, before he could stand up straight, his feet suddenly slipped, and his whole body fell from the gap of the pergola.

This shelf is less than one foot long, which is not too high, but if a person falls like this, it is not a problem to break a hand or a foot. If the fall is not good, it is not impossible to die directly, but Gu Xiangtan's limbs are hanging in the air For a moment, I didn't feel any strange feeling, not to mention fear, I didn't even feel nervous. I don't know if I died once, or everything happened too fast without time.

And a figure also jumped up the moment Gu Xiangtan fell, stepped on the railing to use his strength to climb up, and then turned around in the air, firmly catching the fallen man in his arms, and then The two landed together.

Lying in that person's arms, listening to the other person's heartbeat, Gu Xiangtan suddenly understood, because with this person by his side, and whether he would put himself in danger at any time, that's why he became so confident yes.

Gu Xiangtan raised his head and met Zhao Yuan's displeased gaze.

Yizheng was also shocked, jumped down, and circled around the two of them a few times: "How is it, did you fall?"

Zhao Yuan ignored him, but pinched Gu Xiangtan's face and looked towards the sun.

A small piece of skin was lifted from the corner of Bai Jing's forehead, it wasn't serious, but bright red bloodshots were still slowly oozing out, presumably it was accidentally rubbed by a vine branch just now.

Gu Xiangtan didn't feel anything, followed Zhao Yuan's gaze and wanted to reach out to touch it, but was grabbed by his wrist.

Zhao Yuan held Gu Xiangtan with her back hand and walked forward, leaving the grape trellis, and directly entered her small courtyard not far away.

The courtyard was plain and plain, a little empty, with only a few rows of green bamboos and sweet-scented osmanthus planted, and a faint fragrance came along the way, and the inside of the room was almost the same as Zhao Yuan's inner room in Luli, without too many decorations, just look at it It is very simple, and if you look closely, you can find that the tables and chairs are all good things.

Zhao Yuan asked Gu Xiangtan to sit down, ordered Bi Fu to fetch water first, and twisted the handkerchief herself, wiped off the fine dust on his forehead first, and then took out the wound medicine in his arms to give to Gu Xiangtan. He smeared.

The corner of Gu Xiangtan's mouth was about to raise a wry smile. How long has it been since Yuan Qing was asked to apply medicine on himself again, but this guy is so prepared to carry medicine with him, isn't it because he always has minor injuries and serious injuries?It was quite accurate.

Glancing at Bi Fu standing aside from Zhao Yuan's clothes, Gu Xiangtan did not forget to order: "I picked a lot of grapes, and they are on the shelf. Go and get them back, and I will make wine for your young master later." OK."

After finishing speaking, he heard a helpless sigh drifting over his head.
