Chang Anqing

Chapter 56
In the twilight, in the alley outside the Taiwei's mansion, the sound of horse hooves gradually sounded. Little by little, from far to near, it gradually merged into the sound of thunder like thunder. When a group of figures appeared at the entrance of the alley, they would be able to Seeing that in the pattering rain, several people, all wearing robes and hats, drove their horses all the way, with the rapid sound of "da-da--", the horses' hoofs neatly stepped on the floor tiles, occasionally stepping on the depressions. In the puddle, the splashing rain almost wet the clothes of the people who came. When they stopped at the west corner gate of the Taiwei's mansion, the group quickly turned over and dismounted, and one of them trotted forward very quickly. "Dangdang" Dang-" Knocked on the door.

After about a while, the door was gently opened a crack, and before there was time to open the door, the boy who opened the door hurriedly opened the door with a "squeak--" when he saw the person coming. When a man with a handsome figure slowly stepped forward and took off his hat, through the silk lamp hanging outside the door, the handsome face of the man was hidden in the shadows, flickering and darkening.

"Governor—"

It turned out that Chang'an had been raining for the past few days, and Yang Chongyuan sent Yang Yan outside the city in the name of inspecting the river. It was not until this moment that Yang Yan returned with a group of people wrapped in wind and rain.

Seeing that the gatekeeper retreated respectfully, bowed down and called out, Yang Yan gave a gentle "um", and the green silk umbrella had already been erected in Changsui Valley beside him. Gu followed and was already walking towards the door. As soon as Yang Yan walked to the fork in the wet rain, seeing Yang Yan heading in the opposite direction of Langao Courtyard, Xi Gu quickly stretched his arms and moved his umbrella towards Yang Yan. He kept on walking, and he just followed step by step and called: "Erlang, you haven't had dinner yet, and now Zilangaoyuan has prepared meals waiting for you."

"Go to Chaolu Courtyard first."

Hearing Xigu's words, Yang Yan didn't turn his head, and still hurried to the yard where Li's house was. Xigu followed with an umbrella, and then took a look at the expression of his master. It was obvious that he had something very important to do, so he didn't need to think about it. , he could also guess what was going on.

"Erlang, rest assured, the county master and you have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. When it comes to the two of you, no one in Chang'an City can say that a man is talented and a woman is a match made in heaven. This time, the lady's visit to Yuqing Temple is bound to have chosen for you an excellent zodiac auspicious day. , when you become the bridegroom, Xigu still wants to ask you for a glass of wedding wine——"

The more he talked about it, the more delighted Xigu became, and when he approached Yang Yan, he seemed to be begging.

Hearing these words, Yang Yan seemed to have been poked into his heart, thinking of this anxiously looking forward eyes filled with joy, and when he glanced at the accustomed valley beside him, he immediately smiled and said: "I have never been short. what happened to you?"

While they were talking, the two masters and servants rushed to the Chaolu Courtyard in such a hurry. They saw that the Chaolu Courtyard was quite quiet as usual, and Xigu watched Yang Yan's robe rushing in without stopping, and was happy for it. At the same time, he sighed.

My own master really likes Yongning County Master very much.

After so many years of following, others don't know, but he is very clear that although his master is gentle and polite to everyone, but only to Yongning County Master, the feeling of joy at first sight, and longing after seeing him has already penetrated deep into his bones. , the whole world can teach their masters to be so anxious and lose their temper, and desperate, only the county master is the only one.

"Governor—"

When the maids in the corridor saw Yang Yan hurriedly approaching, they couldn't help but look at each other, then politely leaned down and stepped back. When Yang Yan lifted the curtain and entered, the wind from the curtain suddenly blew past their ears. They all looked at each other in dismay, and when they lowered their heads, it was a bit regretful.

In the past, no matter what the county magistrate was, he was always calm and disciplined when he came to the madam's yard, and he would never throw up the curtain in such a hurry.

It is a pity that God did not wish.

Following Yang Yan's footsteps, Yinniang, who was rubbing Li's temple, couldn't help but look sideways. When she met Yang Yan's earnest gaze, Yinniang gave a slight pause in her hand, lowered her head, and looked at Li's eyebrows. It moved imperceptibly.

"Auntie."

When Yang Yan approached, Mrs. Li saw that his body had already been soaked by the rain, and he looked tired from coming all the way. Mrs. Li frowned and looked at the valley beside him and said, "Why did Erlang-Jun get soaked in the rain? In this way, how did you serve?"

Hearing Li's questioning, Xi Gu hurriedly knelt down, and Yang Yan hurriedly said, "Auntie don't have to blame him, I came here in a hurry."

Hearing Yang Yan's words, Mrs. Li couldn't understand why, so she could only calm down a little and say: "Why are you rushing back in such a rainy night, can you eat?"

Yang Yan was thinking about something in his heart, and seeing Li's question, he had to answer politely one by one. Seeing that Li was going to order someone to cook for him, he interrupted: "It's okay, Langaoyuan has already prepared meals, and my son will come here. I thought of seeing you first."

Hearing this, Mrs. Li lowered her eyes and sighed in her heart. Looking at Yang Yan, who was clearly on her mind but hesitated to speak, how could she, a mother, not understand.

"Erlang, A-Niang knows why you are here."

Noticing the difference in her mother's expression, Yang Yan's heart sank, and an ominous premonition rose little by little.

"You tell Erlang."

Seeing Li turned her head to the side and closed her eyes tiredly, Yinniang first paused, and when she met Yang Yanding's gaze, she had to lower her head and say everything cleanly.

Afterwards, Yang Yan couldn't remember how he walked out of the Chaolu Courtyard without turning his head amid the anxious voice of Li's voice.He only felt that the sweat on his body when he was on his way was getting colder and colder at this moment.

disagree-

Is this God's will.

He knew, knew that Aman didn't like him, but he couldn't control his heart. He would always think that as long as he worked hard to love and protect Aman, she would feel it one day. , maybe at that time they can become the happiest couple in the eyes of the world.

But he thought of everything, but he didn't think that even the heavens were not optimistic about them.

Looking at Yang Yan who was rushing into the rain alone, Xigu called anxiously while holding an umbrella to keep up, but Yang Yan in front of him seemed to have been taken out of his soul. Going forward aimlessly, even if the rain has soaked his hair and clothes at this moment, he is unaware.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Xi Gu only felt a pain in his heart, and a layer of moisture gradually covered his eyes.

The world's population has the spirit of Wei and Jin Dynasties, how could Erlang, who is like the bright moon in the mountains, ever be so lost and embarrassed?

No one knows the existence of Yongning County Master Yu Erlang better than him, but now everything is a foregone conclusion.

I don't know if it was due to the fatigue of the journey, or because of the strong wind and rain tonight, when he stood outside the Wuzhu Garden, Yang Yan's steps had become weak.

"Jiro-"

Xigu supported Yang Yan's body with tenderness in his heart, but saw that Yang Yan was just standing there in a daze, a pair of eyes just looking at the bright lights in the courtyard.

"Man, I'm late-"

At the moment when the words were finished, the silk lamp outside the courtyard was swayed like duckweed. Through the broken halo, the valley saw Yang Yan's moist eyes. I don't know whether it was the falling rain or the tears of the man.
