Little Xiucai's Flowery Love History

When Tao Linghua learned of the change, although he was terrified for a while, he accepted it, because he was a capital crime, and now even if he repeated it once, he was still not beheaded immediately, so he was satisfied.Just thinking about Guanshan Wanli, wondering if I will be able to come back with my life, my heart is always flustered, and I don't know what to do.

Mu Qi came to see Tao Linghua with mixed feelings, a little depressed.Originally, things were turned upside down, the long-faced thing became a shameful thing, and half the life of his lover was taken, so he really didn't know what to say.Although the two had an unpleasant quarrel, their hearts softened after thinking about it. How could they be willing to embarrass Tao Linghua?

Wouldn't it be unfair if Tao Linghua thought it was his own means to harm him?

So during the period of the retrial, Mu Qi never came to see him, he just asked him to take care of him. One reason was that it was difficult to talk about it, and the other reason was to avoid suspicion.I was not afraid before, but now Wang Zhi is afraid that he will not be able to support himself, so he should be more cautious.

At this moment, the parting is right in front of our eyes, no matter how awkward we are, we still have to see each other, and I'm afraid we won't see each other for a few years.

He ordered people to open the door and send out the servants. There were only two people left. Mu Qicai stretched out his arms and hugged Tao Linghua tightly. Taohua, my baby Hua, this time it is Dali Temple who is here to intervene, and people from Dongchang are also intervening. I can't do anything for the time being. Just be patient, and I will find a chance to save you. As long as you survive, everything will be fine. "

Tao Linghua was also a little agitated, this person was not good at all, and he was running for himself, leaving his own life behind, no matter how reluctant he was, he couldn't deny it.Moreover, after traveling for thousands of miles, the future is at a loss, and I don't know who to tell.

At this moment, he really wanted to treat Mu Qi as a big brother.Ask him what to do next.

But from now on, it will really be a cloud and mud, right?Even if you die, there will be no chance to meet again, right?

Getting rid of Mu Qi's embrace, looking into Mu Qi's eyes, Tao Linghua also had tears in his eyes, and said, "Big Brother Mu, I will call you Big Brother for the last time. I have been taking care of you for many years, so our siblings can live to this day , Now let me have another life, I thank you. It’s just that from now on, let’s stop. I’ll be my prisoner, and you’ll be your Beijing official. From now on, we’ll just pretend we’ve never met.”

Mu Qi frowned, and said displeasedly: "What nonsense are you talking about? I have spent so much effort, and you have to break the word? I know you have suffered. You had a bright future, but now you are exiled, so naturally you are not angry. , but the matter has come to this point, a man can bend and stretch, as long as he can turn over in the future, why not suffer a little bit now? Forget it, I will find someone to take care of you, don't be afraid, I have you all."

After finishing speaking, he took out a Khotan white jade brand with five plums and flowers from his sleeve. It was smaller than the ones that people usually wear, but very delicate. It was worn with a red string, wrapped around Tao Linghua's neck, and tucked into his collar.

Tao Linghua wanted to take it out and return it to him.Mu Qidao: "Take it with you first, in case you need it, even change it for silver." He touched Tao Linghua's arm and the wound on his face with both hands, sighed, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Tao Linghua flickered for a moment, then bowed his head and remained silent.

Mu Qi suddenly asked again: "Where did this bead come from? Give it to me?"

Tao Linghua snatched it back with his hands and stuffed it into his collar, thinking that he would give it to his sister when he saw her again before leaving, and hand it over to that person.

Mu Qi didn't talk nonsense, he rubbed Tao Linghua's whole body vigorously, kissed him hard on the face and mouth a few times before letting him go.

Tao Linghe, the eldest sister of the Tao family, was making cotton-padded clothes and cotton-padded shoes. She hadn't slept for several days.The people I saw became even thinner, and there was no way to persuade them, so I had to cheer up and open a shop.

Life has to go on, without money, life is impossible.

Ten days later, it was already early winter, and the ground was covered with ginkgo leaves, so Tao Linghua had no choice but to leave.

I still think in my heart, Qiu Wei is over, if I can take the exam this year, I wonder if I can win the exam?But now it seems that there is no hope in this life.

Mu Qi had already returned to Beijing early, he insisted on suppressing the hundred sticks, but he didn't dare to joke about his future for the time being.It is not a good thing for Jingzhong to leave for too long.

My father-in-law should also please me.As for his wife, he didn't dare to show his feet.

The elder sister and husband of the Tao family wanted to leave the house behind, put a lot of clothes and food on the back of the younger brother, and pooled up [-] pennies for him to take with him, and gave thirty pennies to the escort, hoping to take care of him. My younger brother, the money is almost two or three years of savings, so I don't care about it at this time.But Tao Linghua thought that Mu Qi had given the money, so he gave back fifty guan to his sister.

Tao Linghe hugged his younger brother helplessly and cried loudly, "Be patient even if there is suffering, and we will meet again in the future." Tao Linghua nodded.

Han Fu and a few classmates came to see him off, and they also pooled more than a dozen coins to send him off.I just hope that Tao Linghua can take care of himself, and maybe he can return to his hometown in the future.

Tao Linghua also asked his brother-in-law Chu Xin to take care of his sister, and then she said goodbye to everyone and set off on the road.

The end of autumn and early winter of the 17th year of Chenghua became a period in Tao Linghua's young life that was turned upside down and will never be forgotten.When I left the town, I looked back at my hometown again, and my tears fell like rain.

But Mu Qi really missed Tao Linghua and sent two people to take care of him all the way. Tao Linghua didn't suffer much, but he was unhappy and became very thin.Mu Qi also gave Tao Linghua one hundred guan coins, but he didn't give him any silver, because he was afraid that it would be difficult to carry, and it would be even more troublesome if he recruited a thief.Tao Linghua didn't refuse. Guanshan is far away and the road ahead is difficult. It is a good thing to have money, so there is no need to be hypocritical.

After arriving in Yangzhou from Hangzhou, I took a boat along the canal and went northward. Along the way, I saw some scenery along the way. The market was prosperous, but I didn't have the heart to appreciate it.If the fame is in the body and the classmates have a good time, they can make a poem to enjoy the scenery and be elegant, but now, looking at the shackles on their bodies, they can only smile wryly.

I have also seen refugees begging for food because of the famine, all of them in ragged clothes became beggars, but they themselves are worse than beggars, and they have to go across the mountains to hand them over, and they don't know if they will survive.

When I arrived in Yangzhou, I boarded the boat heading north at the Grand Canal Wharf, and watched the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River gradually move away. I felt nothing but melancholy and sadness in my heart. I just hid in the cabin along the way, and even ate in the house. eat.

Those in charge of the escort were Zhang Laobai and Li Xiao from Lizhong. Both of them were honest middle-aged men. Although they were not familiar with Tao Linghua, they were also responsible people. Qi also gave these two people enough travel expenses before leaving.

Mu Qi sent two servants, one named Yu San, an old butler in his 40s, who was brought over by his wife from her mother's house, and the other named Mu Wu, who was bought by Mu Qi in Beijing, so he was cautious along the way.Yu San was especially concerned.She took good care of Tao Linghua all the way.Tao Linghua didn't want to take advantage of Mu Qi, but sometimes he thought angrily, whoever made him feel sorry for him should make him pay something.What's more, the travel expenses are also charged, so I can't give up this resignation, so I just let them serve.

During the slow chat, they learned a lot about Mu Qi in Beijing. It turned out that Mu Qi was favored by Yu Shangshu and became his son-in-law. Yu Shangshu's relationship is very good, Master Yu values ​​this son-in-law very much.Tao Linghua was even angrier.

The next stop is Xuzhou, from here to Luoyang by land.Xuzhou has been an important place for military strategists since ancient times, and it is also a place where the north, south, east, west, and land meet, so there are many merchants and it is very prosperous.From here, the post road divides into two forks, one goes to Beijing, the other goes to Luoyang, and then turns north to Shanxi.

After finally arriving in Xuzhou, a strong wind blew up, and the weather suddenly turned cold. It rained when we disembarked. The early winter wind and light rain made the air extremely humid and cold.Tao Linghua's hands were locked, it was difficult to get out the bag, he was shivering from the cold, and he didn't want to order Yu San to follow Mu Wu, so he had to stand next to him.

Needless to say, I am tired after a day's journey, so I eat and sleep when I arrive at the post station.

Tao Linghua couldn't sleep. Although he let go of the shackles and changed into cotton clothes at night, he couldn't go out freely, and could only sit in the room.Looking at the strange scenery outside the window in a daze.At this time, the strong wind whipped up the wet fallen leaves and beat them on the eaves and roofs, making a "squeaking" sound, and the inside and outside of the house were equally humid.

Gradually the night became thicker, and it was getting dark. It seemed that there were horses and chariots chaotically in and out of the courtyard, and it seemed that there were still people coming.Although this post station usually receives people with official duties, sometimes it also receives businessmen from time to time to earn a little money.

In the middle of the night, it was dark all around, and the faint light of the lanterns in the yard shone in, so that you could not see your fingers. You could only hear the drizzle, and it seemed that the wind had calmed down. Under the horse's neck, the horse eats night grass, and when Reiko moves, the "bell" rings, and the bells of several horses ring lightly together, seemingly nothing, seemingly far away, distant and clear, making this rainy night in early winter extraordinarily quiet.Tao Linghua only thought of a line of poetry: Ye Yu heard the sound of bells breaking his heart.

What is Mu Qi doing in the capital on this cold and rainy night?It's late at night, you must be enjoying the boudoir with your lovely wife, right?She said she didn't want Mu Qi, but she still couldn't help thinking about it, feeling the jade tablet in her hand, her mind was in a trance.Suddenly, my hand touched a round object, and after touching it, I realized that it was a jade bead that I wanted to give back to others.I regret that I forgot to give it to my sister.It doesn't matter if you leave by yourself, but also take away a pearl from others, really, will you be discredited by others?Tossing and turning, he also slowly fell asleep.

Having nothing to say for a whole night, he went out the next morning to rush to the next station. Just as he walked out of the door, Tao Linghua staggered and hid behind Yu San.
