People came and went on the long street, and when the crowd came to a crowded place, Gu Jiuge abandoned his horse and walked.
He came back from socializing outside the house. He wanted to ask Yufu if he wanted to go out to watch the lights. As soon as he entered the door, he heard the porter say that they had already gone out.
At the moment, they were ordered to take the horse out of the house, but they couldn't find Yufu on the long street.
"Strange, the next person clearly said it was on this street, why didn't they?"
Gu Jiuge looked up at several teahouses and restaurants on the street. He wanted to go up and have a look, but he gave it up after thinking about it.
Every year during the Yuan Festival, the places in the restaurants were reserved by the relatives and ministers early. Guhou Mansion has never spent this money, and Yufu should not be upstairs.
He'd better look for it again along the long street.
When I walked to the bridge, I suddenly saw a lot of lotus lanterns in the river channel underneath.
The river was dark and austere, and the light of the lotus lantern dazzled everyone's faces, and they couldn't see the specific features.
Gu Jiuge's heart moved and walked down from the bridge.
Yufu might like these lotus lanterns. He went to the river to look for them. Maybe they were underneath.
The river course is not long. From the downstream to the upstream, the lotus lanterns in the river are getting sparser.
There are fewer and fewer people by the river.
Gu Jiuge sighed, knowing that Yufu and them were not here, so he lifted his foot to leave.
Suddenly he heard a weep from the willow tree, which was especially abrupt in the quiet environment here, and he immediately lifted the saber around his waist.
"Who is there?"
The weeping person under the tree heard a familiar sound, wiped his tears with a kerchief, and walked out slowly.
In the shadows, one could only see that she was a slender woman, walking like a weak willow Fufeng, but like a willow tree turned into a spirit.
"Is it the second son of Gu?"
The sound is so familiar.
Gu Jiuge received the sword, "Is it Miss Yin?"
He had seen a lot of women, but there were not many women he could remember. Yin Ji was one of them.
The woman walked out from the shadow of the willow tree, she was indeed Yin Ji, but her face was not dry with tears, she looked very sad.
"What happened? Why are you here alone?"
Yin Jiying wiped her tears, "I went out to watch the lights, accompanied by a maid and a guard. But only when I heard the news from the mansion, I felt sad and dispelled them all."
Gu Jiuge paused, "Since it's a family affair in the Xiang's mansion, I won't ask more. But it is not safe for Miss Yin to be here alone. I will send you back to the mansion."
Yin Jizheng shook her head desperately, her lips biting tightly.
"I don't want to go back home, at least not now."
Gu Jiuge was anxious to find Yufu to help them, but he left Yin Jizhen's daughter's house here, and he couldn't do such a demeanor.
After hesitating for a moment, he said: "It's cold by the river. If Miss Yin doesn't want to go back to the house, I will take you to a restaurant."
Yin Jizheng was thin and weak, and she didn't like to dress too thickly, and she didn't like her posture.
Shi Cai was overwhelmed and didn't feel cold. When Gu Jiuge said that, she felt cold in her hands and feet, and she hurriedly wrapped the neckline of her cloak, and followed Gu Jiuge toward the river.
The two randomly searched for a restaurant along the street. After drinking a cup of hot tea, Yin Jizheng's face looked much better.
Gu Jiuge said: "It's warm here, but it's a pity that you can't see the lanterns on the long street. The spot you can see was booked ten days earlier."
His tone has always been so gentle, and Yin Ji's face is reddened.
She was rarely treated with such tenderness. From the first time I saw Gu Jiuge, she felt a strange feeling in her heart.
This time, she met again when she was most embarrassed, and she was taken care of by him again, which made her feel the peculiar feeling in her heart sprouting and growing.
"It's good to have a place to avoid the wind, thank you Er Gongzi."
Gu Jiuge just smiled, pouring and drinking himself when he mentioned the hip flask, and didn't say much.
He didn't ask, but Yin Jiying wanted to say instead.
"Actually today is my mother’s death day. I have to go to worship at this time of the year. But this year my father will not let me go out of the city, so that I can live in the house. Even when I go out to watch the lights at night, I take advantage of his carelessness. from."
Gu Jiu was stagnant among the singers, and suddenly thought that the wife of Xiangfu had also passed away early, and Yin Jizheng, like herself, was a person without a mother.
She said that Prime Minister Yin seldom let her go out, so that's why she didn't let her go to worship, right
Gu Jiuge said: "You suddenly remembered your mother, so you are so sad that you hide under the tree and cry?"
Yin Jiyi said: "That's not the case. My mother has been away for many years, and I am not sad anymore. Because my father refused to let me go out of the city to worship, I asked the young man to go for me. Who knows that I was so young. I found it and said that my mother's grave was buried by the heavy snow this winter, and it was no longer found."
As she spoke, she was about to cry again.
Gu Jiuge couldn't help but laugh, "What's the point of crying? The snow is not melted in a cold place outside the city. It's not unusual for the snow to melt in a few days at most. Can you find it if you go there? The grave is there. And won't run away."
He said so.
Yin Ji's tears broke into a smile, "I was too nervous, I didn't even understand such a simple truth, don't make fun of me."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Gu Jiuge had already drunk today, and he drank two glasses by himself at the moment, and he was even more drunk.
He wondered in a daze, how could the tomb of Mrs. Yin's prime minister be covered by snow and could not be seen
Only those unowned tombs in the wilderness, a small flat mountain bag, unlicensed and spiritless, will be easily covered by snow.
Yin Jizheng looked out and got up for a blessing, "Second Young Master, my maid is looking for me, I'm leaving now."
As he walked out, he turned around and smiled at him, "Thank you!"
