Love Like the Galaxy - Chapter 147
According to Yuan Shen’s original plan, Shaoshang slept until the third day, he had a lunch at Cheng’s house, and the two went to Dongbai Cemetery in the afternoon. When they returned to the city, it was already dark and the lights were on. . Who knew that Shaoshang got up early today, so he didn’t know how to pass the extra two hours.
Yuan Shen was walking around in his belly, thinking that if he sent the girl home first, God knows if he would be followed by a long list of old and young. No, this is very inappropriate, so he proposed to go to Yuan’s family for dinner.
Shao Shang readily agreed—since he was considering marrying this guy, it would be better to know more about the Yuan family.
Pedestrians on the road have said that this is the beauty of heaven, and it is a blessing for the light market tonight.
Yuan Shen had asked the servants to hurry back to report the letter in advance, so when the young merchant got off the car, the servants of Yuan’s house were lined up in two rows and waited at the door, backing like geese The unfolded two rows of sheepskin lamps looked extraordinarily gorgeous in the dim twilight.
Young merchants rarely feel guilty. In the past five years, Yuan Shen went to Yong’an Palace to find herself. She either didn’t open the door, and only opened the partial door when she was in a hurry. She felt as if she was taking advantage of others.
So she whispered: “Actually, you can just open the side door of your house, you don’t need to be so grand.”
Yuan Shen immediately understood that he had gone elsewhere, and said displeasedly: “It’s already this time, are you still afraid of being seen that you and I are together?!”
Shao Shang sighed: “Can you stop thinking bad things about people, I’m just embarrassed.”
Yuan Shen’s expression was slightly stunned.
Ten sturdy and tall giant trees do not wither through the winter, and the thick leaves fall on the snow and make a deep snoring sound, exuding a comfortable old feeling everywhere.
It is said that more than 100 years ago, the ancestors of the Yuan family were ordered by the emperor at that time to serve as officials in this capital for decades. It has slowly expanded to its current size.
Later the emperor and the old uncle settled here, and other noble families either purchased their own houses, or the emperor gave the original mansion of the rebels – no matter what the situation, it always needs to be renovated, only the Yuan family The mansion is still original, so there is a kind of simplicity that is unmatched by other homes.
After a little refreshment, a well-dressed and kind old woman personally served the young merchants to change their clothes. She didn’t talk much, just kept smiling at Shaoshang, and when she noticed the girl’s curious eyes, she said, “I am the son’s mother Fu, my surname is Wang.”
Yuan Zhoumu has a total of one son, and the son in her mouth is naturally Yuan Shen.
“Don’t you need to serve Young Master Yuan?” Shao Shang was embarrassed to see.
Wang Li smiled and said: “Young master is very ambitious, and he is very picky about what clothes to wear and what jade accessories to wear. Since the age of ten, others will not be allowed to decide for him, and the old servant will not look for bad luck. “
Shao Shang smiled, she likes such interesting old people.
The main hall of the meal is brightly lit. Yuan Shen is standing by the door in a new dress, wearing a silver crown and brocade, and the person is like a beautiful jade.
Shao Shang froze for a moment, then walked into the hall with a smile – although Wang Li said that just now, it is not difficult to see traces of the care of the elderly women in the subtleties of Yuan Shen’s clothes. For example, although Yuan Shen loves sapphire jade, but in this weather, he will wear mutton fat jade with warm tentacles.
Unlike Huo Budo, although the old man wanted to open his private library to his adopted son to dress up, some details could not be taken into account. Counting down the cold winters, his lingerie is still a precious but cool and smooth pure silk material. In July, when the fire is raging, he will sleep directly on the jade mat, which is hard to change, but he doesn’t know that he needs to spread a thin layer of Xuan Ma first. to keep out the cold.
Shao Shang sighed softly.
After a while, Yuan Shen’s parents came slowly, and Yuan Shen led the young merchants to greet them.
Mrs. Liang had met Shaoshang five years ago, and she was still the same, but her beauty was indifferent. Even on this Lantern Festival, she was still dressed in white, only the waist was hanging like blood The bright red jade pendant is striking.
Tonight, she was about giving her son face, smiling at Shaoshang frequently, and greeting the physical condition of everyone in the Cheng family. Yuan Shen was very satisfied with the super-level performance of her mother.
Yuan Zhoumu’s eyebrows and eyes are very similar to his son’s. Shao Shang knew that he was only two years older than Liang Zhoumu, but his hair was gray and his expression was tired. When debriefing, Yuan Zhoumu was among them.
After Shao Shang kowtowed, he asked people to hold a plate of gold and jade as a gift, and asked Shao Shang to eat more in a gentle tone.
The three members of the Yuan family and Shaoshang had a meal. During the action, Shaoshang noticed that Yuan Zhou Mu’s arm seemed to be bandaged. She asked Yuan Shen softly, and Yuan Shen curled the corner of his mouth. , replied in a low voice, “Father was assassinated on the way here, it’s okay.”
Shao Shang nodded, another doubt raised in his heart.
When she heard Yuan Shen say that he was the only child, she thought that Yuan Shen meant that Mrs. Liang only gave birth to him, how could Yuan Zhoumu not accept concubines and give birth to children, even Liang Zhoumu had concubines born to him daughter. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shen later made it clear that his parents had only his son, so Shaoshang combined with the rumors that Mrs. Liang missed her ex-husband, and understood it as “King Xiang is intentional, and the goddess is ruthless”.
But judging from the behavior of the Yuan family tonight, it is a standardized embodiment of ‘respecting each other as guests’. It seems that not only the goddess is not interesting, but King Xiang also lacks interest – what is going on.
After the wine and meat were removed, the slaves served desserts and fruit fermented fruit. network’…
There was a loud noise, and it seemed that some heavy object had opened a big hole in the roof, and then a burly figure with a huge double hammer jumped down.
Yuan Shen stepped forward with a few steps and pulled Shao Shang behind him. At this time, the guards had rushed in and surrounded the Yuan family and the two of them.
In the dust particles, I feel that I am really a disaster!
Yuan Shen said coldly: “Fifth percent, you have no end, assassination of courtiers is a serious crime, my father has let go of the past, do you want to intensify it! Come on, where is the bowman! “
Yuan Zhoumu waved his hands anxiously: “A-Shen, don’t talk for now, don’t move anyone… Brother, don’t mess around, this is the foot of the emperor, the capital city, if you really make trouble It can’t be good!”
Be sure to take your head to pay homage to the heavenly spirit of Sister Heyi!”
The Shao Shang supported Yuan Shen with one hand, and slapped his gray face and clothes with the other, and said in a bad mood: “Who are you, this strong man! If you were an assassin, it would have been long ago. Wan Jian has penetrated the heart, and I will allow you to talk nonsense; if you are a chivalrous person, you should make another time with Lord Zhou Mu to settle your grievances, and don’t involve others; if you are a diners who have gone the wrong way, then… then I don’t say it! “
Yuan Shen had a sullen face, and his expression softened when he heard the words; Mrs. Liang, who had been out of the matter, smiled: “Shao Shang, let them handle this matter, you can go with me to change clothes.”
After saying this, she was escorted by the guards and slowly came over and pulled Shaoshang out of the door. Before leaving, Shaoshang heard Yuan Shen’s voice: “Father, let’s arrest him first. Come on, or it’s over!”
Yuan Zhoumu seemed to be inspired by Shaoshang’s words, and said loudly: “Listen to the left and right, my righteous brother came to the banquet tonight, he went the wrong way, and no one around him talks much! Alright, hurry up and come here!”
Fifth Cheng laughed sadly: “Yuan Pei, you don’t have to cover up for me, I’m here to kill you! Wan Jian pierces the heart, ha ha ha, He Yi died in your Yuan family. Under the bow and arrow…” The next one was inaudible.
Mrs. Liang knelt in front of the spiritual case, praying softly, and turned around when she heard footsteps.
Shao Shang came closer and found that the words ‘Xianhu Yuan Gongyu…’ were written on the spiritual seat on the incense case. He was shocked and thought, why is he named Yuan?
Mrs. Liang sensed the girl’s doubts, waved away the slave and smiled and said, “It’s okay to tell you something, the person I married for the first time was the cousin of the state shepherd.”
This is a sad old story.
Different from the Qu family who turned their feud into relatives, the Yuan and Liang families have always been good friends. got married.
Yuan Shen’s great-grandfather has four sons, and each son has four sons, Yuan Pei is only the third son of the fourth house. So when Yuan Pei said that he didn’t like reading and had no intention of official career, he just wanted to be a ranger on the rivers and lakes, the great-grandfather of the Yuan family agreed very enlightenedly.
Before Yuan Pei went out and ventured into the arena, Mrs. Liang also drank the practice wine with her fiancé Yuan Yu. She clearly remembered that the descendants of the Yuan family were prosperous and prosperous at that time. The young boy laughed loudly.
.
In the first few years, Emperor Rui was polite to them, and he repeatedly awarded official rewards, so his great-grandfather gradually let go of his guard and brought some of his children and grandchildren to Chang’an. Disasters occurred frequently, and the fierceness of the emperor was revealed.
The great-grandfather of the Yuan family had a lifelong friend, and his son was abroad to support the rebels. After the incident was reported, the emperor was about to kill.
However, Emperor Rui had been on guard for a long time. After the incident was revealed, all the family members of the two families in Chang’an were killed and their corpses hanged at the city gate; Emperor Rui also ordered the officials in Jiaodong area to arrest and kill the Yuan clan. Fifty or sixty relatives of the Yuan family who were unable to hide were killed, and then the county town was burned.
Yuan Yu was neither in Chang’an nor in his ancestral home. At that time, he was traveling with his new wife. He could have escaped after being summoned by relatives and friends, but the old and weak women and children at home were being pursued. How could he be immune to the slaughter, so after setting up his wife, he led the soldiers back to their hometown to save people.
This time, the Yuan family was spared the disaster, and Taiban’s young children were saved, but Mrs. Liang’s prince never came back.
For many people, the cruelty of the Emperor is just a few short sentences in the history books, but for the Yuan family, it is the past of the sinking sea of blood. For Mrs. Liang, It is even more broken half-life mandarin duck dreams, life is better than death.
And Yuan Pei’s Ranger couldn’t do it, because his older brothers of the same age were all dead, and he was the only brave and good warrior left in the main branch of the Yuan clan Children, looking at the poor teenagers in the family who have not yet reached the crown, and a group of younger children, Yuan Pei knows that his dreams are over – even though he has met a woman who is close to his heart, even though he has made alliances with her. Under the oath, we will use the sword and the rivers and lakes will never be separated.
At the same time, the Qu family was constantly suppressed and framed because their property was coveted by the emperor’s nephew. Qu Lingjun’s two uncles were charged with inexplicable charges and died in prison. The old master vomited blood and died of anger.
Only the Liang family seems to be safe for the time being, but the newly appointed head of the family, Liang Zhoumu, is brave and wise. He asserts that if the Liang family sits and watches the Yuan and Qu family die and remains indifferent, then it will soon be his turn.
On a stormy and thunderous night, Yuan Liangqu’s three patriarchs gathered together, made blood alliances, and decided to raise the flag of righteousness against the tyrannical emperor – but the rebellion was not a dinner party, it was only a few drops of blood on the fingers. Not enough, you need to add the oldest insurance since the disputes between the feudal princes in the Spring and Autumn Period, the alliance of in-laws.
At that time, Liang Zhoumu’s wife was the daughter of the Qu family, but Mrs. Liang was just widowed, and she was walking like a dead body, so the old father of the Liang family begged his daughter to take the overall situation as the top priority and marry Yuan again. family children.
In the face of the mountain of corpses and blood and death, any unbearable grief seems hypocritical. Yuan Pei can’t watch the family collapse, and Mrs. Liang can’t ignore her father’s pleading, so they both compromised.
After all preparations were made, the three families gathered all the people covered by the family’s influence, soldiers, relatives, friends, and supporters, and raised weapons, food, and silk that had accumulated dozens or even hundreds of years, and killed all the gangsters in a few days. The emperor’s minions in the Jiaodong area expelled the officials who were loyal to the emperor, occupying several counties in the two counties as fortresses. Ironically, their flag is still ‘Qingjun’s side’.
—This is just a microcosm of the area under the tyranny of the emperor at that time.
Yuan Pei and Liang Zhoumu were more fortunate. After their military exploits, they were awarded high positions, while the relatively weak Qu family were unlucky. The most talented children in the family were either dead or disabled, so they could not enter officialdom.
“Is that woman the younger sister of the strong man who is just right?” Shao Shang guessed from his age.
Mrs. Liang nodded: “Her name is Fifth Heyi. The two brothers and sisters have been dependent on each other since childhood, and they are very close.”
“How did the fifth girl die?” Shaoshang asked.
Mrs. Liang said: “That year, before the moon was born after I gave birth to Ashen, the fifth marriage ceremony suddenly came to see Lord Ashen. What, the fifth Heyi suddenly drew his sword to face each other, and even broke into the inner bed all the way, grabbing the infant child and forcing Ah Shen’s father to follow her.”
“Uh, this…” Shao Shang didn’t know how to express his expression.
“The noise got louder and disturbed Uncle Jun (Yuan Pei’s father) who was seriously ill. Order the bowmen to shoot arrows together…”
“Ah!” Shao Shang exclaimed.
Mrs. Liang sighed: “The fifth Heyi died with ten thousand arrows piercing the heart, Ah Shen’s father did not want to live, but Uncle Jun committed suicide that night, leaving a last word ‘for father to you My sweetheart is dying, you protect the Yuan family for me.”
Shao Shang was extremely horrified: “Yuan Gongzi’s grandfather, did this plan from the beginning?”
Mrs. Liang did not answer directly, but said: “The Yuan family has just earned a life from Emperor Rui, the city must be guarded, the Mingjun must be sought, and there are thousands of difficulties to overcome, how can we let A Jianghu woman takes away a young and talented head of the family.”
The three families have all been preserved, and they will slowly heal and recover in the long years that follow.
However, Yuan Pei and Liang’s hearts are dead, and their bodies are still doing their duty for the family, but all their love, hate and enthusiasm are left in the past, in the most youthful and beautiful love Time passed happily.
It wasn’t until she was walking in the colorful lamp market that Shaoshang gradually came to her senses. She looked at Yuan Shen, who was beside her with a stern face, and asked in a low voice, “Uncle still let that one go. people?”
Yuan Shen said in a deep voice, “Father can’t do anything no matter what, he can only have the fifth percent to assassinate him again and again!”
The young businessman looked at Yuan Shenjunxiu’s profile for a while, and suddenly understood him – why he was so impatient with Mrs. It’s not sarcasm or sarcasm.
During his growth, the three most important people, father, mother, and mentor, all indulged in the past and couldn’t extricate themselves; although Yuan Pei and Mrs. Liang did not neglect the training and care of their son – give him I found the most gentle and honest Mother Fu, assigned the most reliable and credible entourage, worshipped the best teacher(s), and created the momentum of a wise young man… But with Yuan Shen’s intelligence, I am afraid that he would have already noticed that his parents were absent-minded.
Young Shang now understands why Yuan Shen hates the affection of ‘perseverance and no regrets’. Her mouth was itchy, and she couldn’t help but ask, “If you died early, you wouldn’t object to my remarriage.”
Yuan Shen’s suffocating air all night was like a punctured air bag, and it collapsed with a puff; he said weakly: “Can you and don’t keep thinking about the bad things, I can’t tell you. Live longer than you!”
“But I’m seven years younger than you.”
“If I live to sixty-seven, do you still want to remarry at sixty?”
Shao Shang touched his forehead and felt that it was a bit scary to marry at the age of sixty in this era. It is estimated that the emperor was going to talk to her.
Yuan Shen suddenly stopped, pointed to a place ahead and said, “That’s where we met.”
The young merchant looked up and saw a long row of circular lanterns hanging under the restaurant full of guests, reflecting the faces of passers-by.
“It’s been the seventh year since you and I first met during the Lantern Festival.” Yuan Shen sighed, “Mrs. Sang waited for the teacher for seven years, and then married your uncle, you and I too It’s been a waste of seven years… Shao Shang, don’t imitate my grandparents, you have to look forward.”
Shao Shang did not speak, but continued to walk to the juggling stage not far away, Yuan Shen followed silently.
There is a row of quiet and gloomy shops about ten feet behind the Zaji table. Shaoshang stood beside the shops, looked up at the dark blue night sky full of stars, and then raised his hand to A brightly lit commercial building on the other side.
“Look, Huo Budo was standing beside the revolving lantern under the eaves of the building.” She said softly.
Yuan Shen looked down her arm and couldn’t help but feel sour: “Then you fell in love with him at a glance?”
Shao Shang shook his head: “I didn’t see his face clearly. Actually, I didn’t see the faces of both of you.”
“What.” Yuan Shenqi said, “I stood in front of you and said a lot of things, how can you not see me clearly.”
Shao Shang smiled and said, “Young Master Yuan, didn’t you realize that you were standing behind the back?”
Then turning her head, she looked at the revolving lantern under the eaves, “He doesn’t have a backlight, but he is tall and his face is blocked by the lamp. So…”
“So what?” The corners of Yuan Shen’s mouth turned up.
“So I’ll forget you both when I go back.” Shaoshang was also helpless.
Yuan Shen chuckled lightly, looking at the faint tears in the girl’s eyes, and suddenly said, “Shao Shang, do you want to go over and see that revolving lantern?”
Shaoshang moved forward with the revolving lantern, stopped after walking a few steps, suddenly squatted down and buried his face in his arms.
Yuan Shen watched her quietly from behind, but did not help her.
After a long time, the girl stood up slowly, her eyes were clear when she looked back, she smiled: “In more than a year, Huo Budo’s punishment will expire, and His Majesty will definitely recall him Capital City, we should treat them like old friends, and you are all ministers in the same palace, so you don’t want to be too stiff.”
Yuan Shen smiled slowly: “That’s true.”
“In the future, I will entertain Sister Jitong at home. I can’t just allow her to come alone. Then you will entertain the husband and son-in-law well.”
Yuan Shen heard that this ‘home’ was obviously not the Cheng family, but the Yuan family, so the smile grew stronger in his eyes: “That’s natural.”
Shao Shang walked past Yuan Shen, pulled his sleeve, and walked forward firmly: “Shan Jian, go to my house to propose marriage. We will grow old together in the future, and finally be buried in one place. .”
Yuan Shen was dragged away by the girl quietly and obediently, full of joy, like a quiet and dull night when she pushed the window to see the moon, and the breeze blew her face.
He replied in a low voice: “Hmm.”
