In an instant, Gu Yun lost his temper.
He stretched out his hand to catch Chang Geng, patted Chang Geng on the back, and rubbed his chin on the opponent's shoulder, feeling that those arms were no longer a bony frame.
Gu Yun also wanted to say "I miss you too" very bluntly, but he didn't say it when he was so old, and the words came up and down in his chest and abdomen, and finally got stage fright and escaped back to his stomach.
He just smiled lightly and said, "How old are you, and you still act like a spoiled child."
Chang Geng closed his eyes, knowing in his heart that he couldn't go beyond the norm, he couldn't restrain himself, but his limbs and body could restrain himself.
He let go of Gu Yun in a gracious manner, and calmly stood on one side, enduring an invisible wildfire in his chest. He knew that he wanted too much, too much to be unreasonable, and even the various resentments that came out of it were all disgusting, so he didn't dare to show any signs.
Chang Geng took a deep breath and asked, "Why did the foster father come to Jiangnan?"
Gu Yun glanced at him, and said angrily: "I still have the face to ask, isn't it all because of you?"
Chang Geng didn't dare to look at him any more, and lowered his head slightly.
However, Gu Yun only thought that he was talking too much, and the reprimand had already reached the tip of his tongue, and he was hurriedly taken back by himself. He put his thumb into the palm of his hand, and pinched it back and forth two or three times, one joint after another, until the exhaustion of traveling thousands of miles came up. Chang Geng said, "Sit down, tell me why you cough with that bald man."
Gu Yun realized that it didn't seem appropriate to call Chang Geng "bald donkey", but he couldn't say "Master", so he got stuck.
Chang Geng: "I understand that the master wants to travel south, and I have to follow it on my own initiative. If the adoptive father has trouble going to him because of this, I will feel very sorry for it."
Gu Yun: ""
Chang Geng was too good at talking, he knew how to excuse the bald donkey, and he knew how to excuse him so he didn't get mad. He explained the difference between inside and outside in one sentence, which made Gu Yun almost feel "unhappy". He was secretly surprised for the second time. It had only been a year. Where did the child who used to talk like a club learn this trick
"When my adoptive father was my age, he had already gone south to suppress rebellion and bandits, but I was still incompetent, so I wanted to leave the Hou residence to see the outside world," Chang Geng stole a glance at Gu Yun and found his eyes There was actually bloodshot in it, so I couldn't go on anymore, full of guilt rose from my chest to my throat, and said in a low voice, "It's just wayward, and I made my foster father run around. I was wrong, you punish me."
Gu Yun was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "It was my first time to go on an expedition with the army. In fact, General Du joined the old Marquis and all the old people and asked the late emperor to come here."
Chang Geng raised his head suddenly.
Gu Yun is not a very modest person. He often runs on the train with his mouth full after drinking too much. He has blown away such nonsense as "Blindfolded eyes and ears can knock down twenty iron puppets in half a column of incense". However, when he thinks about it carefully, the glorious history of his youthful fame, commanding the Western Expedition, and rebuilding the Xuantie Camp, it is clear that every single thing can be talked about for half a lifetime, but Gu Yun has never mentioned it.
Gu Yun took out another glass and poured a glass of slightly sour wine for Chang Geng: "This is the wine of the Loulan people, you are old, you can taste a few sips."
Chang Geng took a sip, but he put it aside without any taste. He and Gu Yun hadn't seen each other for a long time. Seeing him was already disturbed by his blood vessels, so he really didn't need the blessing of wine.
Gu Yun: "I didn't know anything at the time, so I was just adding to the chaos, and I was young and frivolous, and I refused to admit it humbly. On the way to suppress the bandits, I stabbed a big basket in an impetuous and private action, and a small battle was lost. More than 30 heavy armor piled up with real gold and silver, and it also seriously injured General Du, have you heard of General Du Changde?"
Chang Geng has heard it clearly and said that the monk is familiar with the civil and military officials of the previous dynasties and the current dynasties, and I am afraid he is more familiar with the Buddhist scriptures.
More than ten years ago, the old Marquis of Anding and his wife passed away one after another. Gu Yun was still young. It was the old General Du who was involved in the frontier and the court, and supported the overall situation. Unfortunately, the old injury recurred and he died on the way to the northwest. Let Gu Yun, who was only seventeen years old at the time, take command of the west expedition.
Gu Yun: "If it wasn't for that time, the old man could be tough and tough, and he wouldn't have suffered from old injuries caused by a cold. When the class teacher went south to suppress bandits that year, his old man wrote a report to the court and told me I didn't mention my fault, and I used the whole text to show my merits, so I just stayed in the army."
When Gu Yun said this, he paused.
He suddenly felt a little unbelievable. All the way he thought about how to teach Chang Geng a lesson after he caught Chang Geng. From pondering on Wen Dou to Wu Dou, who knew that it would inexplicably evolve into sitting down and explaining his shameful old things.
He thought he would keep those things a secret, but now that he took a look at it, he could suddenly face it calmly.
It was simply beyond his knowledge of himself.
Maybe Shen Yi is right, the youngest son and the old father are indeed heavy burdens, they can push people down and see themselves clearly.
"The reason why I am in this position is not because I am better than anyone else, but because my surname is Gu," Gu Yun looked at Chang Geng and said, "Sometimes, your background determines what you must do and what you must not do. what."
This was the first time Gu Yun explained to Chang Geng the reason why he couldn't take him to the northwest, although it was very vague.
Chang Geng looked at him motionless.
Gu Yun thought about it for a while, and then said: "But if you really think about what kind of path you want to take, you don't have to worry too much. As long as I'm still alive, I will always have the strength to take care of those things you shouldn't have. swept away the obstacles.”
Chang Geng thought that he had trained with monk Mingran to have a mouth that dared to speak to anyone he saw. At this time, he realized that this "someone" still wanted to get Gu Yun out. He faced Gu Yun's words. At times, he became extremely clumsy and clumsy.
He always thought that he was a burden thrown by the late emperor to Gu Yun, a greedy person who coveted a world that didn't belong to him, but he wasn't.
Chang Geng thought to himself, no one else could treat him like Gu Yun.
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed past the door: "Master."
Gu Yun came back and waved to Chang Geng: "Go to rest early, follow that monk if it's not good to eat or live well - um, or do you want to stay here and sleep with me?"
Chang Geng: ""
"Boom" exploded in his head, and his face immediately turned red.
Gu Yun smiled and said, "You have learned to be embarrassed. When you had nightmares before, you cried with fright. Didn't I coax you to sleep?"
Chang Geng really didn't know how to deal with this kind of slander that came face to face—the key point was that Gu Yun said it so frankly, as if it really happened!
This young man, who seemed to have a bright tongue just now, finally lost his temper, and ran out of Gu Yun's house with fluttering footsteps.
After Chang Geng left, Gu Yun waved to the door: "Come in."
A soldier in black eagle armor immediately entered.
Xuan Ying said: "My subordinates were ordered to hunt down that monk"
Knowing that he kidnapped the little prince out of Beijing in private, although it was really outrageous, but now that someone has found it, it is inconvenient for Gu Yun to offend Huguo Temple too badly, not to mention that Chang Geng just said his love.
Gu Yun: "Forget it, tell Chongze that the arrest warrant is withdrawn, and it's just a misunderstanding. I'll invite that Master Zhiran to have a vegetarian meal the other day."
"Chongze" is the word of Master Yao of Yao Zhen - although he said so, but he knew that as long as he had a heart, he would not dare to come to the banquet. Gu Yun was sure that he would not even drink saliva in front of his face. go down.
That Xuanying whispered: "My subordinates are incompetent, and I haven't found any trace of the eminent monk. I saw him board a ferry this evening, and when I uploaded a search with the officers and soldiers, I found this."
As he said, he took out a small cloth bag from his arms. After opening it, he found that it was a cloth strip with a little golden powder on it.
Gu Yun took it over and only glanced at it, his brows furrowed.
He is very familiar with this thing. It is called "Broken Heart". It is a kind of ore that accompanies Ziliujin. After grinding it into foam, it will be added to Ziliujin according to a certain proportion, which can prevent Ziliujin from accidentally burning during long-distance transportation. , It is very convenient to filter it out with a special process when using it.
However, in general, when the imperial court transported purple gold, it either used giant kites to travel in the air, or simply walked on the official road, and was escorted by troops stationed in various places. How could there be such a thing in a ferry that monks could easily get on
Gu Yun: "Are you silent?"
Xuan Ying: "Don't worry, Commander."
Gu Yun got up and took two steps on the spot: "In this way, don't withdraw the wanted order, and tell the outside world that I must catch the monk, and the brothers will keep an eye on those ferries for me, where did they come from, where did they go? go"
When Gu Yun said this, his voice suddenly came to an abrupt end. He was stunned to find that his vision was slowly blurring, and there was a circle of phantoms on Xuan Ying's body not far away.
"It's broken," Gu Yun thought calmly, "I left too quickly and didn't bring any medicine."
No wonder he vaguely felt as if he had forgotten something, and Shen Yi didn't remind him.
Xuan Ying: "Master?"
Gu Yun picked up his own voice as if nothing had happened: "If possible, it is best to know who the owner of the boat is, and pay special attention to who is interacting with them on weekdays."
Xuan Ying has no doubt about him: "Yes."
"Wait, and," Gu Yun stopped him, "if you find that monk, bring him to see me."
Xuan Ying immediately took the order and left.
After dismissing the mysterious eagle, Gu Yun turned on the gas lamp on the table and sat down without moving.
Jiangnan does not produce purple gold. If there is really a problem with those ferries, there are only two ways to come—either there are officials in Jiangnan who sell them privately, or they come from overseas.
If it is the former, it is better to say that Jiangnan is rich and the emperor is far away. When the puppets are cultivated here, they are secretly wiping oil for personal gain. This matter is handled by the inspectors.
But if it is the latter, I am afraid it will be complicated.
The seven major military branches of Daliang are not weak, especially the two "Armor" and "Eagle" are the most powerful, that is the accumulation of the painstaking efforts of the three generations of the Lingshu Academy, and in terms of equipment alone, it is not inferior to the Westerners who are good at odd skills. people.
Only "Jiao" does not work.
Although the "Jiao" of Daliang is used for water warfare, it is generally only used for coastal defense and rarely goes out to sea.
It has always been like this - when the maritime trade route ran through east, west, north and south, almost all the ports and docks along the coastal line were docked by foreign ships. At that time, Emperor Wu was in power, and Daliang was rich and powerful, and he didn't care about the daily trade with the Western barbarians. It was the foreigners who rushed to pan for gold.
At that time, the so-called "trade" was that people delivered goods to the door, and this place opened a wharf in a condescending manner, and reluctantly left the foreigners' chickens and dogs as a reward for their pocket money.
Up to the time of the late emperor and today, although they saw the profits of maritime trade, they were very enthusiastic, but because the northwest front line has not been peaceful, the coastal defense issue of "giant floods entering the sea" has always been shelved. Either there is no money, or there is no purple gold quota.
If someone on that group of ferries is really selling Ziliujin privately, it is very likely to threaten the coastal defense of the East China Sea.
And monk Mingran, was it unintentional or a long-planned plan to lead them to the ferry
After such a long time, Gu Yun's eyes became more and more blurred. He reached into his arms and felt the glass mirror, which he put on his nose, so that at least one eye could see a little bit clearly.
Gu Yun smiled bitterly and said in his heart, "What should I do?"
Chang Geng fled back to his room with his feet on the ground, his heart still hadn't calmed down, and when he opened the door, he saw a miserable monk in white. Master, why are you here?"
With a clear smile, he put his palms together and stood up - Amitabha, poor monks are all-pervasive.
This monk must have been trained to go without a trace, and he is very elusive. He can even enter and leave the residence of the inspector at any time, and he is really a person.
The monk gestured with Chang Geng, "I'm afraid the Marquis of Anding will probably let me go this time, so don't worry, Your Highness."
Chang Geng didn't worry about him, he was clear-headed, and after a slight second thought, he came back and asked, "Did you deliberately use me to lure him here? What the hell does Yingtianfu have?"
Knowing and looking at him with admiration, he slowly stretched out his two hands and said in sign language: "The East Sea Flood Dragon wants to transform into a dragon, and the monk specially invites a great catastrophe."
What does this imply? Is King Wei going to rebel
or something else
For a time, several thoughts flashed through Chang Geng's mind. He only knew that this monk had entered the WTO before, but he did not expect him to enter the WTO so deeply, and his eyes couldn't help but bring some scrutiny and precaution.
However, without waiting for him to ask any more questions, he made a gesture to keep up with him, and jumped out of the window with ease. Chang Geng hesitated for a while, took off his saber, and followed him out.
