The son crosses every night

Encouraged by He Xiling to drink fruit wine last night, Tang Hua was half-drunk, barely woke up from groggy in the morning, and fell asleep again as soon as he got in the car.

The carriage creaked and rocked like a cradle in which a baby slept.

Tang Hua was buried in the warm quilt, and fell asleep for a very long time, his whole body relaxed, his consciousness fluttered, and he was so comfortable that he didn't want to return to his senses.

Falling asleep, he smelled a fragrance, like the clear sky after the snow, and like the autumn wind, someone patted his back lightly, "Why did you sleep so deeply? Are you sick again?"

The pair of slender and powerful hands touched Tang Hua's forehead, and the hands were slightly cooler than his forehead. Tang Hua shivered and opened his eyes.

Just waking up from a deep sleep, Zhang Hua's eyes were misty and he couldn't see clearly.

I saw a tall young man in front of him, wearing a green dress, bent over and leaned into the carriage, his eyes like cold stars were facing Tang Hua.

Those eyes have long eyelashes, similar to Tang Hua's. Because of the thick eyelashes, the eyes look extraordinarily deep.

"Brother!" Tang Hua reacted immediately, shouted excitedly, turned over and sat up immediately.

Gu Tangyu smiled slightly, "Are you awake?"

"Wake up, wake up." Tang Hua nodded quickly, and crawled out on both hands and feet. Halfway through the climb, he remembered something, and hurriedly pouted again!I returned to the car, rummaged under the seat for a few times, and finally pulled out a box carefully, and offered the treasure: "Brother, here you are, to celebrate your triumphant return!"

Gu Tangyu's eyes were full of smiles, and he asked, "What is this?"

Tang Hua was a fool, "You'll know when you open it."

Gu Tangyu opened it and saw that there was a box of chaff inside, "..."

"Ah? It's not this!" Tang Hua patted his head angrily, and explained: "The inside is Langhong porcelain fired in my porcelain kiln. I was afraid of breaking it, so I packed it tightly with rice bran, and the rice chaff will be cleared out later. Come to see the real face inside."

Gu Tangyu smiled, holding the box with one hand, "Brother, I know, let's eat first."

The two brothers walked slowly along the corridor to the dining room.

Tanghua hadn't seen this elder brother for more than half a year, and he really missed him, so he turned his head to look at his elder brother.

His elder brother has grown taller again, about the same as his husband, both are close to 1.9 meters, but he is thinner again, with a thin layer of flesh on his face, and his beautiful bones are clearly visible, as if he had been cut by a knife and an axe.

He also grew more than three inches taller, but he still didn't reach his brother's earlobe.

Tang Hua couldn't help asking: "Brother, how have you been in the past six months? Did you not encounter any danger?"

"Fortunately, it's not a disgrace, danger or not is here." Gu Tangyu turned his head to look at him, and said: "In the past six months, you have grown up a lot, which is impressive."

Tang Hua walked side by side with him, he paused when he heard this, and said softly: "I will grow up."

Gu Tangyu looked at him, let out a long breath for a long time, and said: "When you escaped before, you always hoped that you would grow up soon. You are really sensible and it makes people feel uncomfortable."

Tang Hua's heart moved, and he opened his mouth, "Is it really difficult to raise a child?"

Rao Gu Tangyu's various thoughts were rejected by Tanghua's words, and he couldn't help laughing: "You are so young, where is the emotion?"

As soon as the two of them arrived at the dining room, Gu Ende brought over steaming meals.

Gu Tangyu gave the box to Gu Ende, "Take out the porcelain inside."

Gu Ende smiled, "Yes."

Gu Tangyu took his seat with Dama Jindao, and Tanghua followed him, looked left and right, and asked softly, "Brother, isn't your name Brother Han?"

"He's gone to study, today I'll welcome you, just the two of us will eat."

A table of dishes, stewed shad, braised pork, lion's head, stuffed duck... are all Tang Hua's favorite dishes.

Gu Tangyu held him a lion's head and said, "Eat first, and talk slowly after eating."

Tang Hua wanted to talk a lot, but he didn't eat much at noon. At this time, his stomach was growling, and his hands and feet were so hungry that his hands and feet were weak. When he smelled the aroma of the table, his mind almost couldn't turn.

Gu Tangyu noticed his situation, smiled again, and put vegetables in his small plate.

He puffed up his cheeks to accept his elder brother's feeding, ate small mouthfuls quickly, and after sweeping half of the table, he was finally full.

Gu Tangyu ate no less than him. After the two of them rinsed their mouths, Gu Tangyu tidied up slowly and made fun of him, "It seems that it's really not easy to live outside for half a year."

Tang Hua whispered: "It's better than before. Since my father gave Zhuangzi to me, my life has been much better."

Gu Tangyu looked at him fixedly, and sighed softly for a long time, "I have wronged you."

"Why should I be wronged? Eat enough and wear warm clothes without worrying, which is much better than elder brother." Holding the cup, Tang Hua reached out to touch the hollow of his neck, "Brother, you have an extra scar here, this time you go to Beijing Are there more of them?"

Gu Tangyu didn't expect him to be so keen in observation, so he nodded in surprise and said: "The situation was critical at that time, and I couldn't escape, so I resisted it with my shoulders, and it's no longer a serious problem."

Tang Hua shook his head, "The cut wound on the body has been frozen in the ice and snow for such a long time, how can it be really harmless? Brother, you have to ask the imperial doctor to take good care of it when you come back, don't hurt your foundation, and you will get sick all over when you get old."

Gu Tangyu smiled, "Why is this so?"

"Brother, you are only in your twenties, and you already have injuries all over your body. How can you not have it?" Tang Hua sighed, "I am afraid that the entire imperial capital will not be able to find a young man with as many injuries as you."

Gu Tangyu: "It is only natural for soldiers to protect their families and the country."

Knowing that the left and right are Gu Tangyu's confidantes, Tanghua lowered his voice extremely low, "The country is the country of the emperor's uncle and the others. Is it really worth it to go to the frontier to work hard and be jealous by them?"

Tang Hua knew what he said was wrong, so he pursed his lips and didn't dare to look at his brother, wishing to lower his head to the table.

After a long time, a big warm hand stroked the top of his head, Gu Tangyu said: "I also asked my father if it was worth it."

"Then?"

"When our ancestors drove the Tartars to the grasslands, with the Yulian Mountains as a barrier, the Tartars have never dared to invade our Dasheng frontier in the past 20 years."

Gu Tangyu said: "Back to my grandfather's generation, the frontier was defeated, and the battle line was pushed south for a hundred miles, which is our current frontier. After losing the barrier, whenever there is a disturbance in the grassland, the Tartars will invade."

"Nowadays, the people on the frontier are moving inward, and a hundred miles away will be a fertile plain. If the battle line is pushed further inward, a large number of people will be displaced. At the same time, Dasheng will be able to drive straight in if the Tartars invade us in the future, and the consequences will be extremely serious." serious."

Tang Hua listened fascinated.

Gu Tangyu went on to say: "After the old general Bian retired, Ling Xingyu and others will be the commanders of the Zhenbei Army. They can be the generals in peacetime, but it is difficult to be the commander in battle. If I wait to step back step by step, I will let my talent and character be mediocre. The people who go to guard the frontier, for a long time, the soldiers will be proud soldiers, and the generals will be mediocre."

After being silent for a while, Tang Hua asked: "Brother, can you and your father be sure that you are a brave general?"

Facing his younger brother's clear eyes, Gu Tangyu was not angry, he said: "I am."

Tang Hua was dumbfounded.

Gu Tangyu resolutely said: "Even if I dare not compare with the famous generals of the previous dynasty, I am not bad. As a son of the royal family, I am willing to guard the gate of the country."

Tang Hua was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Brother, you...you are right about that position..."

There are personal soldiers guarding all around, but Tang Hua still dare not finish what he has to say.

Gu Tangyu understood what he said, his eyes sharpened, and he scanned Tanghua up and down.

Tang Hua didn't look at him, and then said softly: "The emperor's father and son are not rich. Currently there are only five princes. Except for the five princes, the rest of the princes have grown up."

"The first prince is famous, the second prince is fond of profit, and the third prince is the most mediocre. When he was studying in the Hanhaifang, his school boy had to endure many punishments for him. As for the fourth prince—" Yan Hua lowered his voice again, "Last year in his house He kidnapped people's daughters and killed his father and brother. After being exposed, His Majesty imprisoned him for half a year. Such a villain cannot be a big person."

Gu Tangyu looked at him for a long time, and said: "We are not the blood of the former emperor."

Tang Hua pursed her lips, unable to say anything more.

Gu Tangyu patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "I know that when I go to the frontier, I will cherish my body and this little life."

Tang Hua thought that a sword has no eyes, you can cherish it if you want to, but it is hard to say this.

Tang Hua thought to himself, let's discuss this matter after earning more money and producing more useful things.

After the two of them finished their meal, Gu Ende came in with the tray before they took away the dishes.

On his tray were a small vermilion wine bottle and two cups, which looked cuter than the wine bottles and glasses carved out of agate.

Gu Tangyu couldn't help laughing, "Is this a wine glass from your village?"

Tang Hua nodded, "I got the glaze recipe from a book by chance, and I tried it a few times, and it was fired last year. This is the second batch this year, and the shape of the vessel is better than last year."

Gu Tangyu picked up the small cups, poured a glass of wine each, and said: "Thanks to you, I got this elegant taste."

Tang Hua said: "Brother, if you are still in the imperial capital in winter, I will ask them to make a set of teacups. Wouldn't it be beautiful for us to enjoy the snow while drinking tea in winter?"

Gu Tangyu smiled, "Brother is guarding the frontier, you can relax and have wine and tea in the imperial capital."

Tang Hua knew that he could not persuade him, so he asked in a low voice: "Brother, how long are you going to stay in the imperial capital this time?"

"Your Majesty gave me a three-month vacation, and I will return to the frontier after two months." Gu Tangyu said: "After this battle, I have been promoted from the fifth rank to the fourth rank, and I will be able to lead the team to fight against the enemy in the future."

He is going to fight, Tang Hua has absolutely no intention of being happy for him, hearing this, his lips are tightened even more.

Gu Tangyu sighed lightly, raised his glass and said, "Drink."
