Chapter 31 (Updated in 6.13)
The Song family sent such an invitation letter, but Wei Yun felt that his heart was trembling. He always felt that this letter of letting go of his wife would cause trouble, but he couldn't tell what kind of trouble it would cause, so he could only forget it.
After resting at home for a day, Wei Yun brought Chu Yu and Jiang Chun with him to the Duke Huguo Mansion. Although only Wei Yun and Chu Yu were invited on the post, Chu Yu wanted to take Jiang Chun out to relax, so she also took him to the Duke Huguo Mansion.
The Song family is similar to the Wei family. They are both the founding fathers, the family of military generals, and the protector Song Zhao and Wei Yun's grandfather.
It was only in Weizhong's generation that the sons of the Song family had learned the pompous style of Huajing, and they were good at digging into the power of the court, and there was no real trick in the battlefield. The Wei family also saw the example of the Song family, so the Erlangs were sent to the border at the age of eight or nine to shoot arrows on horseback, and follow their families when they were young to see the killings on this battlefield.
Over time, the two families have some intersections in the protector of the country, and there is nothing else.
Just for the sake of protecting the country, Wei Yun still wanted to give face, so he asked the housekeeper to prepare a generous gift and changed into Chinese clothes before taking Chu Yu and Jiang Chun out.
Now they are still observing filial piety, and their clothes should not be too gorgeous. All three are wearing plain clothes. Wei Yun has wide sleeves and wide sleeves with a dark pattern of cirrus clouds and a jade crown. Chu Yu and Jiang Chun are both pure white brocades. Long skirt, gold moiré pattern, jade headband, earrings with pearls. He looked dignified and generous, but he didn't find Duke Huguo's banquet unhappy because of his filial piety.
The three came to Duke Huguo Mansion together, and were led into the inner courtyard by the servants. Chu Yu and Jiang Chun walked in the direction of the female family members, and Wei Yun was led to the male guests' courtyard.
The place where the female family feasted was set up in the waterside. When Chu Yu and Jiang Chun arrived, many noble ladies from each family had already come. Jiang Chun seldom came to such occasions in the past, so he couldn't help being a little restrained. Chu Yu patted Jiang Chun's hand and reassured: "You don't have to be too restrained, just chat with Xie Jiu and the others before."
Jiang Chun nodded and whispered: "I'm just afraid of losing the face of Wei Fu."
"What are you afraid of?" Chu Yu smiled and looked around: "My Weifu's face is not to do unreasonable things. As long as it is reasonable, my Weifu will have face."
When the two said this, Chu Yu heard a surprise call: "Sister!"
Chu Yu turned her head and saw Chu Jin standing at the entrance of the water pavilion, with a face full of joy coming up, eagerly grabbing her hand and saying, "Sister, you've come, I'm afraid you won't come today."
Chu Jin's warm appearance gave Chu Yu goosebumps. She looked up and understood in an instant. The first lady of the Song family helped the old lady come up, and the first lady of the Song family nodded towards Chu Yu and said in a steady voice, "Miss Chu."
Hearing this girl Chu, Jiang Chun and Chu Yu were both stunned. Madam Song immediately realized that she seemed to have said something wrong, and frowned and said, "You..." She didn't know how to address Chu Yu for a while. Can only say: "You never returned to Chu Mansion?"
Chu Yu understood that Mrs. Song should have known about Wei Yun's signing of the release of his wife.
She glanced at Chu Jin with a half-smile, and then said, "Who did the eldest lady hear that I went back to the Chu residence?"
Madam Song choked her voice and glanced in the direction of Chu Jin without a trace. Chu Jin stood behind Mrs. Song and lowered her eyes without saying a word.
She probably didn't know how to deal with such a scene, but she used to pretend to be calm, so she planned to fool it like this.
Chu Yu didn't want to bother her on purpose. She smiled and didn't say much. Mrs. Song chatted with her a few words, and then left with the others. Chu Jin greeted Chu Yu, as if she had already treated Chu Jin as a Half of the daughter-in-law watched.
Chu Jin led Chu Yu to the garden, and Jiang Chun noticed that there seemed to be something wrong between the two sisters and left early. Chu Yu and Chu Jin walked along the promenade all the way around the lake to the side, Chu Jin always maintained a gentle appearance, and introduced to Chu Yu every flower and every tree in the mansion with a smile. I've been here many times to get this understanding.
Chu Yu listened quietly, but she didn't think about anything in her mind. Since her rebirth, she has been like a tight string, and it has only been slowly loosened in the past few days. The Song family is rich and powerful, and the courtyard is exquisitely built, almost replicating the beauty of the Jiangnan water town. Chu Yu strolled on the long corridor, listening to Chu Jin's slow introduction, she felt very at ease. Seeing her calm demeanor, Chu Jin couldn't help but glance at her for a long time, and finally said, "Isn't my sister asking me anything?"
Hearing this, Chu Yu came back to her senses and understood that Chu Jin had come to the point.
In fact, Chu Jin has never been a person who can hold back her words. Chu Yu pondered about her sister's previous life, and looking back, she found that she was really a shoddy woman.
The image of a talented woman was created crudely, and she was greedy for the immediate glory and interests, and she would do anything for it. Love vanity, love to show off, not much scheming, not much thought.
How could I lose to this woman in my previous life?
Chu Yu leaned on the long corridor, stared at Chu Jin quietly, and looked back on her past life. When those manic and desperate memories of the past surfaced, Chu Yu suddenly found out that she felt that Chu Jin was short-sighted and unmannered in front of her. It can be said that in the past life, why didn't he lose his heart?
The moment she saw the young Chu Jin quietly waiting for her answer, she realized that the last life was really far away from her, but it was only the last life.
So she smiled lightly and said gently: "What do you want to say to me, just say it. If you don't want to say it, I won't ask."
Chu Jin didn't expect Chu Yu to answer like this. After she was stunned for a while, there was some confusion in her eyes.
Chu Yu looked at it, but said, "You seem to have more questions to ask me?"
Chu Jin didn't speak, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Sister now, do you still miss Big Brother Gu?"
Hearing Gu Chusheng's name, Chu Yu was a little dazed. She looked at Chu Jin and asked curiously, "Why do you ask this question?"
"Brother Gu is now in Kunyang, and I don't know the news, so my sister is not worried at all?"
There was a look of reproach in Chu Jin's eyes. If Chu Jin said this in the past, Chu Yu would begin to reflect on himself. Or Chu Jin doesn't need to say this, she has already begun to worry about Gu Chusheng, but now Chu Yu has no longer cared about Gu Chusheng, she smiled and said: "I am not related to Gu Chusheng, you are not worried as your ex-fiancee, I Why worry?"
Hearing this, Chu Jin's face froze. After a while, she sighed and said, "Sister has really changed a lot."
"Um?"
Chu Yu raised her eyes and wondered why Chu Jin said this, Chu Jin continued: "When I married into the Wei mansion, I was desperate to find Brother Gu two days before the marriage, and wrote a letter to ask Brother Gu to elope with you. Why? When you wake up, how much has changed?"
Hearing Chu Jin mention this, Chu Yu couldn't help feeling guilty. She did change so fast that it was suspicious. Chu Yu pondered the reason, and heard Chu Jin ask her again: "Sister, maybe you can tell me the truth, what made you change your mind and suddenly decide to marry into the Wei Mansion?"
"Well……"
Chu Yu thought for a while, and slowly made up the reason: "At that time, Shizi Wei sent me a letter privately, and I can see from the letter that Shizi's character is like jade, and he is much stronger than Gu Chusheng. I feel that Gu Chusheng Kong has a skin..."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a chuckle not far away, Chu Yu subconsciously swept away coldly, raised his hand and grabbed a leaf and threw it in that direction, shouting angrily: "Who!"
The leaf cut off the branch, revealing a section of cyan clothes behind the branch, and then Chu Yu saw someone lift the branch to reveal the wine table behind him, and helplessly called out, "Sister-in-law."
Chu Yu was stunned for a while, only to realize that behind the dense bushes, Wei Yun and a group of young people were having a banquet here. They are all well-dressed young people, not many in number, but from the perspective of their dress, they should all be prominent children. They should have known each other from the beginning, and found a place alone in Song Mansion to catch up.
The Song Palace courtyard is exquisitely set up.
space
The space is visually separated by rocks and trees. I am not familiar with this courtyard, and I have no idea that there is such a Xuanji in a small courtyard.
Chu Yu set her eyes on Chu Jin, she took her all the way to the lake to get here, she must have planned Wei Yun and others to hold a banquet here. She chatted with her about the past, but it was only to shake out the fact that she tried to elope with Gu Chusheng before her marriage, and lead her to admit it.
In fact, Chu Yu did not shy away from it, she would not deny what she had done, nor would she erase the people she loved. Since she has done it, she is ready to take on it and will not hide it. But Chu Jin's calculating heart still made her a lot annoyed.
Fortunately, she said just now that she was married to the Wei family because of her love for Wei Jun. If she just said something wrong, and Wei Yun is listening here, what should she think?
Many thoughts flashed in Chu Yu's mind, but after seeing Wei Yun, Chu Jin hurriedly bowed to those people and said, "I didn't know you guys were here, I'll be rude. The little girl will leave with her sister... "
"Why?" A voice came from behind the crowd, Chu Yu raised her eyes and looked over, but it was a young man in a blue shirt. He looked three or four years older than Wei Yun. Depressed atmosphere makes people unhappy. The man walked over from the crowd, raised his hand and lifted the branch, looked at Chu Yu, and said frivolously, "Come here, Miss Chu is here."
"Who are you?"
Chu Yu frowned, and the man smiled: "Song Wenchang is here."
Song Wenchang was the son of Song Shi who was betrothed to Chu Jin.
Looking at Song Wenchang's mocking expression, Chu Yu understood that Song Wenchang specially invited her today, probably because Song Wenchang was angry for Chu Jin.
Chu Yu frowned, thinking that the Wei Mansion should not cause more trouble now, so she decided to endure the sigh, and said, "The concubine is a female family member of the Wei Mansion, so it is inconvenient to talk about it here, so I will retire first."
"Why is Miss Chu so restrained?"
Song Wenchang smiled and said, "Wei Yun has given you the letter of letting go of his wife. Now is the time when Miss Chu is looking for a husband again. Miss Chu is a heroic woman who can do everything she can for the love in her heart. Now..."
"Have you seen it?"
Before Song Wenchang could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a cold young voice. Everyone looked for the sound, but saw Wei Yun sitting in a wheelchair, quietly looking at Song Wenchang.
He looked cold.
In fact, apart from facing his own family, Wei Yun's expression has always been cold, but at this moment, the coldness is different from usual, as if a hungry wolf is staring at its prey, always planning to pounce on it.
Song Wenchang suddenly felt a little guilty, but his eyes fell on Wei Yun's wheelchair, his expression improved a bit, and he said with a smile: "What can't you see? Xiao Qi, are you still protecting her? She is with you. On the eve of my brother's marriage..."
"I said let go of the wife's book."
Wei Yun pushed the wheelchair towards Chu Yu's direction. A young man in green next to him looked at it and rushed forward to help Wei Yun go around the branches, onto the jade road, and pushed him to Chu Yu's side.
When Wei Yun's words came out, Song Wenchang finally reacted. He subconsciously looked at Chu Jin. The news was said by Chu Jin and Song Mansion when they were discussing their marriage. At that time, the Wei family hadn't been released yet. Madam Song was concerned about the relationship between Chu Yu and the Wei family, so Chu Jin personally took the wife release book and showed it to Madam Song.
Song Wenchang's hesitation fell in the eyes of Wei Yun and Chu Yu, Wei Yun stood in front of Chu Yu, touched his fingers, stared at Song Wenchang, and said slowly, "I never wrote this letter of letting go of my wife. Chu Yu Now it is my Wei family's current eldest lady, who is in charge of the guard's house, how can Er et al spread rumors and reputations like this?!"
Wei Yun raised his voice with anger on his face. Song Wenchang wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he finally felt that he was wrong. He didn't bother about this topic. He opened his mouth and said, "I won't mention the issue of letting go of the wife's book, so is it true that she eloped with Gu Chusheng?"
When these words came out, everyone looked at Song Wenchang with a bit of scrutiny. Wei Yun smiled coldly, but asked, "why my sister-in-law eloped or not, what does it have to do with you?"
Song Wenchang's face froze, and Wei Yun continued: "The Wei family already knows about my sister-in-law's pre-marriage, so my brother specially repaired a book. I am Hongyan, and I have only achieved this Qin Jin good. This matter is my Wei family's capital. Haven't made a beak, and it's your turn to point your fingers?!"
"Now the front line is in danger, and the country is dying. You Song Wenchang, as the prince of the protector of the country, don't think about how to serve the country, and you only think about women. The boy's bones are gone?!"
When these words fell, everyone present was condensed, and Song Wenchang also felt that he had lost his way, but he was still a little unwilling. What else was he going to say, Chu Jin said in a hoarse voice next to him: "Sir, don't say more."
When everyone heard the words and looked over, they saw Chu Jin's red eyes, and said with a look of grievance: "A Jin knows that the prince is for A Jin... The prince loves and pitys him, A Jin remembers it in his heart, it's just about A Jin and his sister... That's all. "
Her words were secretive and thought provoking. Everyone also reacted to the reason why Song Wenchang lost his temper. There was a cause and effect in it.
She handed Song Wenchang the steps, and Song Wenchang calmed down and said in a stiff voice, "Forget it, now you are also engaged to me, and she is married, and nothing like this will happen in the future, so I won't pursue it anymore. ."
Having said that, Song Wenchang waved his hand: "You guys go back..."
"What are you not pursuing?"
Wei Yun interrupted him coldly, Song Wenchang had a step, but he didn't want to give Song Wenchang this step.
He looked at Chu Jin coldly: "Are you my sister-in-law's sister?"
"Little girl Chu Jin."
"You make it clear," Wei Yun faced her with a solemn expression: "Is there something between my sister-in-law and you that Song Shizi wants to stand up for you?"
"It's all a matter of the parents," Chu Jin sighed: "The private affairs between sisters are not enough for outsiders to talk about."
"Since there are no outsiders, why do you and Song Shizi have to humiliate my sister-in-law in front of so many people?!" Wei Yun raised his voice abruptly: "Now she is my wife of Wei Fu, you are acting like this, is it right? Is my Weifu easy to deceive?! Either you don't provoke it, and since you did it today, you can make it clear to me. If my sister-in-law is really sorry for you, my Wei family will make it up to you. But if you do it today If you don't understand, I will treat you as an insult to my sister-in-law's reputation, and I, Wei Yun, repay my kindness and repay my grievances, and this matter can't be over!"
Chu Jin seemed to be stunned by Wei Yun, with water vapor in his eyes, showing a look of horror, Song Wenchang got angry, stepped forward, blocked in front of Chu Jin, and said angrily: "If you speak, speak, yell at her what to do. ?!"
Wei Yun's expression didn't change, and he stared at Chu Jin: "Cry, cry and you'll be fine, and cry will make you cry when you humiliate others with innuendo? If you hit someone in the face, they will cry when they fight back, if you think I cry, I will I won't slap you in the face anymore? I'll put my words here today, and if you make sense, you can say that my Weifu is not unreasonable. If it doesn't make sense, don't blame me for being rude."
"What are you going to do?!"
Song Wenchang was completely angry: "Don't say that Chu Jin has the right, even if you don't take the right, what can you do? Do you still think you are the guard or go?! If it wasn't for His Majesty's kindness, you think you can still stand here and talk now. ? Your guard house buried 70,000 soldiers and horses, and it should have been exterminating the family..."
"Sir, be careful!"
The young man who pushed Wei Yun's wheelchair before suddenly raised his voice, Song Wenchang turned his head, looked at the young man and said, "What are you? Is it your turn to speak?!"
The young man smiled slightly, his expression calm: "I'm nothing, I just think that there is something strange about the White Emperor Valley, in any case, the Wei House is a family of great Chu style, and the people who have passed away in the Wei House are heroic and heroic. Between words, it is better to think twice.”
Saying that, the young man's expression carried a warning: "Consider for the prince himself, and also for the Song family."
Chu Yu looked up at the young man. The young man was wearing the most simple clothes among the group, with green robes and white shirts, and a hollow jade crown. He looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. He seemed to be the same age as Gu Chusheng. His facial features were delicate and elegant, and he had a bit of heroism.
Chu Yu looked at him for a while, and felt that this person was a little familiar. After thinking about it, she remembered that this is the one who later entered the official office as a shy son, but finally inherited the position of the protector of the country and provoked the Song family. Song Shilan.
In the last life, Song Wenchang went to the battlefield with his father and died there. It was Song Shilan who came out to fight. Song Shilan was quite talented and made good friends with Gu Chusheng. When she and Gu Chusheng were in Kunyang, they had many contacts with Song Shilan, and later came to Huajing After that, Song Shilan refused to enter the capital, always stationed troops in Qiong and Huazhou, and never came back.
Later, Gu Chusheng and Wei Yunlong fought each other, but the young man did not express his position from beginning to end. Every day in Qiongzhou, it became a good story.
It had been nearly ten years since she saw Song Shilan in the last life, and Chu Yu didn't recognize it at the beginning of the period.
Song Wenchang was reminded by Song Shilan, and finally his mind became clearer. He felt that what he said was too much, and he took a step back and said, "I just spoke without thinking, and I look forward to Wei Xiaohou Ye Haihan."
Wei Yun looked at him calmly: "In addition to letting me Haihan, is there anything else?"
While Wei Yun and Song Wenchang were talking, Chu Yu took a peek at Song Shilan. Song Shilan noticed Chu Yu's gaze, turned her head with a smile, and looked at her. Chu Yu felt a little embarrassed when she peeked at someone being caught, and turned her head away. Song Shilan didn't expect Chu Yu to be embarrassed, but was stunned for a while, then lowered her head and smiled.
This interaction fell into Wei Yun's eyes. He glanced at Song Shilan and said nothing more. He continued to talk to Song Wenchang: "You and Chu Jin have something to say about my sister-in-law?"
"Little Marquis, you have to forgive people and forgive them," Song Wenchang frowned: "I won't entangle with you on this matter. Don't be aggressive."
"So, you just can't tell the truth, so just tell me about benevolence and righteousness, right?"
Wei Yun sneered: "Okay, since it doesn't make sense, let's be punished. Apologize to my sister-in-law!"
"Okay," Song Wenchang was trembling with anger: "I don't argue with you. I apologize. I will give this Mrs. Wei, who bullied her younger sister since childhood, deliberately seduced her sister's fiance, and ran away from marriage with her sister's fiance before marriage, Mrs. Wei..."
Before he could finish speaking, Song Wenchang saw a chill on his neck, as if someone grabbed the front of his clothes, he jumped up into the air, and was thrown into the lake next to him.
Everyone was shocked, but they saw Wei Yun's pale face, holding the armrest of the wheelchair to support him with one hand, and pressing the other hand on his chest, coughing rapidly.
Song Wenchang was struggling in the water, Chu Yu helped Wei Yun to sit down with a flustered face, took out a small bottle from her sleeve, and said to Wei Yun, who was coughing hurriedly, "Hold on, Mr. Hou, why are you so impulsive? !"
As he said that, Chu Yu put the vial under Wei Yun's nose, Wei Yun sniffed the vial, and slowly breathed out, his cough gradually eased, and he raised his head to meet Chu Yu's red eyes, his heart stunned, He panicked in an instant, just as he was about to say something, he heard Chu Yu's face full of grievances and said, "If they pour sewage on me, I don't care about this time or two. Why did Lord Hou hurt himself for this? Your Majesty. The reason for rejecting the fact that Marquis invited himself to the front line is to hope that Marquis will recover well, serve the country again, and hurt the minds of these villains who do not distinguish between right and wrong, Marquis does not need to do this!"
These words were said with tears in their eyes, and the people around them were confused. For a while, don't know who is right and wrong between these sisters. However, Wei Yun was relieved. Chu Yu opened her eyes and said big nonsense. She probably knew what she knew, and was not scared to cry by his appearance.
He sighed, looked at Chu Yu's red-eyed appearance, and said slowly, "Sister-in-law, don't cry, I'm fine."
As he said that, he raised his head and bowed his hands towards the crowd: "Wei Mou is unwell, so please leave first. Brothers continue to play, don't disturb the interest because of Wei Mou."
Seeing Wei Yun's appearance, no one dared to stop him. At this moment Song Wenchang was still fluttering in the water, Chu Jin anxiously called someone to salvage this Song Wenchang, Song Shilan saw this, he stepped forward, made a gesture of "please" to Weiyun, and said, "I will send Xiaohou Ye."
Wei Yun nodded, rather tired, raised his eyes and said to the maid next to him, "Please help me and ask the second lady of Wei Fu to meet you at the door."
The maid responded and left, Song Shilan guided Chu Yu and Wei Yun and walked outside the mansion. Chu Yu pushed Wei Yun's wheelchair and listened to Song Shilan and Wei Yun's apology: "My brother is used to being impulsive, and I look forward to Xiao Hou Ye Haihan."
"This is also a matter between me and the prince. It has nothing to do with the Song family and the Wei residence. The second prince can rest assured."
Wei Yun understood what Song Shilan meant, and said directly: "Second son and the prince must not be compatible, right?"
"It's not bad on weekdays," Song Shilan looked over with a half-smile, and there was something in his words: "But when Lord Hou comes, it will be different."
It was already winter, but Song Shilan still held a folding fan in his hand, looking extraordinarily elegant and elegant.
The folding fan picked up the branches that were hanging down next to it, and said in detail, "A few days ago, I heard that the little Marquis entered the palace."
"The second son's news is really fast," Wei Yun said with a cold face: "I'm going to enter the palace late at night, and the second son can know about it. I'm afraid that many heads are not enough to cut off?"
"Master Hou's words are serious," Song Shilan said calmly: "Song only likes to know a few more people, how can I talk about listening to the saint? Song knows some people in the palace, and heard the news of Hou Ye's entry into the palace. I happened to know a few people on the front lines and heard about Yao Yong's abandonment of the city."
"Yao Yong abandoned the city?!"
Chu Yu said suddenly, and her first reaction was to think of what the local people should do. Before Wei Yun came back, although he briefly talked about the conversation with the sage, he also said that Yao Yong was too weak on the front line and did not mention the abandonment of the city. So suddenly hearing the news, Chu Yu was shocked.
Wei Yun understood Chu Yu's thoughts, and hurriedly added: "Before he abandoned the city, he evacuated the people..."
Before he finished speaking, Song Shilan laughed lightly.
"Where does he have this idea?" Song Shilan's tone was full of sarcasm and disdain: "If it weren't for the Kunyang County magistrate named Gu Chusheng, the people of Baicheng would have long been dead under the sword of Bei Di."
