Chapter One, Yu Wuluo
The spring is chilly and the night wind passes through the stars, as if a gauze wipes away the dust between the sky and the earth. The mist falls in the lacquer red nine-turn corridor, and the bright moon shines on the surroundings.
The rockery outside the corridor is covered with vines and flowers, and the old trees are scattered with vines and flowers. The green tinea in the green steps is quietly cleared, and Du Ruoheng, purple qin, green angelica is surrounded by the columns.
A cluster of peony did not get the location of the flower room, and quietly blew the branches and leaves in the mud, rolling up with a sparkling silver light.
Most of Yucheng took "Yu" as the surname. The Yu family, Caoshe Street, where the ancestors had first-rank officials, was the best. The house with three entrances and four gardens was as deep as a deep palace, which made scholars of all generations peaceful and the female family members noble.
Two mothers and four girls followed Yu Wuluo and sent her to the end of the road. In the courtyard behind the two orange trees, the head of the Yu family was the residence of Yu Cun at the age of 56.
There is a Arhat couch in front of the window. After the grandparents and grandchildren sit opposite each other, the moon hangs on the window frame to be a listener.
"The fog falls, there are guests tonight."
"Grandfather, I've heard of it."
"The emperor's death is true, but there is no prince or nephew. The capital directly recommended Lei Fengqi to Beijing to ascend the throne. I am unwilling to accept it."
Yu Wuluo raised half of her brows that were pitch black into her temples, and then brought her smooth forehead. This was a beauty. Her delicate facial features on her oval's face were from the family tradition, just like her grandfather Yu Cun, who was a first-class young man from teenager to middle age, and was also given to her appearance by her ancestors.
"Who is Lei Fengqi?" Yu Wuluo was puzzled.
Yu Cun took out a volume from the file piled up high in the Luohan's couch, Yu Wuluo opened it and read it softly: "The handsome and handsome general of the Japanese Guan, the ninth son and the 14th generation grandson of the founding emperor..."
She frowned in a good look: "Grandfather, this person is not here."
Yu Cunhehe: "Why do you say this?"
"Where is a famous general who is famous for being handsome?" Yu Wu pouted in front of her grandfather.
"If you look at the place name again, it is easy to attack and difficult to defend the Japanese Pass. The royal bloodline of Thunder and Wind Rising has been guarding the Pass for five generations. Whether it is a dashing or an allusion to the romantic, he will not be a weak soldier."
Yu Wuluo showed suspicion again: "Grandfather, what do you mean?"
"The guards of the border in the Five Dynasties had soldiers and horses in their hands, but the person who recommended him was the Grand Secretary Zhang Lin. The death of the emperor was full of speculations for those who were a thousand miles apart. Zhang Lin sent someone to see me and praised Thunder and Wind Qi very much. He asked me to write a congratulatory memorial to bring back to the capital, and to present it on the day Thunder and Wind Qi ascend the throne, expressing the hearts of the scholars and officials."
Yu Cun's eyes burst out with anger: "There has never been a heartless person in my Yu family. Although I have resigned from my post-emperor's political disagreement with the late emperor, your father and your uncle are still serving in other provinces. How can I flatter the villain? Zhang Lin did not send anyone to see me, and I also wanted to find out the truth about the late emperor's death. Zhang Lin strongly invited me to Beijing. The letter was written with flattery words, but he did not mention the last emperor's will. There must be sneakyness in it. The fog fell, and Zhang Lin came at home, and he had many entourages moved into the city. By telling me about poetry and books, he reported his name clearly how many scholars there were in the Yu family."
"This... grandfather was being monitored, right?" Yu Wuluo's anger was more like the budding spring in the yard, and the spring breeze could bloom at one point.
"Haha," Yu Cun smiled awkwardly. His granddaughter was the treasure in his hand. She respected her grandfather since she was raised since childhood, but the elders showed their embarrassment in front of her younger generations, and the elders wished they could not dig out the cracks.
Yu Wuluo quietly lowered his eyes and said respectfully: "Please tell me what I can do."
Yu Cun sighed lightly: "No one can send his family, but our scholars and officials have received the grace of the country in the world. If the thunder and wind are wise and powerful, it is a blessing for the country. If the two colludes, I will know the truth."
"Yes." Yu Wuluo was faintly excited, and she continued to half-depress her face so that her grandfather would not see that she was looking forward to going out, so she could not say that she would change to someone else.
"You know how to be kung fu and you are quite powerful." Yu Cun said this with helpless and troubled expression. It has been a long time since the incident. When he talked about this, he still lingered in his heart, forcing him to suppress his anger and find his elegant style again: "My Yu family has been poetry and books for three hundred years. The children, regardless of men and women, are scholars. Only you can fall in fog, you can know how to be kung fu."
Yu Cun couldn't bear it anymore and looked dark.
Yu Wuluo smiled and adjusted the atmosphere. She swayed her face playfully: "When the wet nurse was driven away by you, she said that if my kung fu was one of the best. Grandfather, just leave the things you want to do to me. The wet nurse said that three or five men were not my opponent."
Yu Cun's dark pot face was completely angry, and he said, "It makes no sense! I saw that she was in trouble and needed treatment. Who would have thought that it was the people in the martial arts world who hid in my house. Your father was in office, and your mother followed your father in office. The family had only a beautiful granddaughter. The Jiuqu corridor only reached the grandfather's courtyard. The courtyard was deeply locked in the coveted by outsiders. He could not leave the embroidered boudoir and often did not meet relatives and friends. Grandfather, I was devoted to studying and teaching the children of the clan. I was just a little distracted and thought that your daughter's family was accompanied by poetry and books to play in the garden. I didn't expect that, in the first month of that year, the city was thieves, and several heads were not taken down, and he fled to the back garden and was defeated in your hands."
He clenched his fists and hit the kang: "What are you waiting for if I don't chase her!"
"Yes." Yu Wuluo said softly: "When the wet nurse left, she kowtowed to her grandfather from the courtyard. She said that she had been with her for ten years and her grandfather had great kindness to her."
"Hmph!" Yu Cun's face was still angry.
"Grandfather, the wet nurse helped me take the reputation of thieves. She left too, so don't be angry anymore." Yu Wuluo begged softly.
Yu Cun calmed down his figure, his bitterness filled his smile: "Now, I have to send you a walk."
Yu Wuluo was happy: "Yes."
Yu Cun pretended not to see it and continued, "If the road is far away, my grandfather will not be willing to leave you out no matter what."
Yu Wuluo moved his lips, thinking that his grandfather's usual teachings meant that the country was more important than the people, and the people were more important than the country.
When the national interests are greater than the interests of the people, for example, if the country is destroyed and the mountains and rivers are not there, the power of the chickens must be brave enough to take the lead. However, when the people's interests are greater than the national interests, for example, the prosperity of the country is actually reflected in the lack of suffering in the people's livelihood. At this time, the people are more important than the country.
My grandfather suspected that the cause of death of the late emperor was unknown, and he also suspected that the generals of the border colluded with officials in the capital. The country was not in the same state and everything had to turn into powder. At this time, the country was more important than the people. How could she consider that the son of a daughter could not sit in the hall and be a beautiful girl in the embroidery building?
Yu Cun's words came out first, blocking the generous speech that Jiao Grandson was about to make.
"Go back to the room to pack up your things, change your father's young man's old clothes, and get stuck in the grocery shopping family and out of the mansion tomorrow morning, and get stuck in the crowd to the city gate. On the small Xiangshan five miles away, outside the cave next to the camphor tree planted when praying for you, waiting for the seedlings to protect the courtyard, and he will escort you to Fancheng thirty miles away. Your second uncle and father-in-law Fan's family will send my letters, and then let the seedlings protect you to the Cui family a hundred miles away from Fancheng. After arriving at the Cui family, your mission will be over, and you will come home quickly."
On the kang table with black painted golden flowers and birds, next to the purple-haired pen and blue-silk inkstone, there are two written letters placed. The spring breeze moves the window lattice, and you can smell the faint smell of paste from the seal.
Yu Wuluo took the letter with both hands, leaned to say goodbye to her grandfather, walked out of the room to meet her mother's girl, and walked towards her embroidered building with light steps.
This is the beautiful daughter of the Yu family generation. Her residence is a two-story embroidery building. At the end of the Jiuqu corridor, one end is connected to the grandfather's courtyard, and the other end passes through the garden and leads directly outside the embroidery building. The path inlaid with jade and white stones marks the garden out of the flower room, clear water, dense forest and lawn.
It also separates the beautiful daughter's daily life from the outside world as far away as nine days.
If Yu Wuluo needs to pay homage to her relatives during the New Year and the Festival, most of the female relatives will accompany her in the embroidery building, and only when the sacrifice is made, they will pass through the moon cave gate in the grandfather's courtyard, which leads to the incense hall.
