Chapter 56: Fifty-six baby

Pingliang Restaurant only has white porridge. Xu Zhen asked for two bowls and two meat patties, which was a very sumptuous dinner.
The two sat down face to face, just sitting by the window, with snowflakes rolling in, floating on the table and turning into a pool of circular water.
Xu Zhen asked: "What did you find in Hualou yesterday?"
Xun Qianchun thought of the picture she saw last night and wanted to tell Xu Zhen, but somehow it was difficult to speak, she shook her head.
Xu Zhen asked, "Have you found nothing?"
Xun Qianchun said: "find a little."
Xu Zhen asked: "What is it?"
Xun Qianchun said: "I found someone."
Xu Zhen asked what the man looked like, what was his name, and what he was doing.
Xun Qianchun kept silent.
Xu Zhen was about to say something else.
Xun Qianchun said: "After two days, there will be a competition in Hualou."
"Game? What game? Did you win a prize for the game?" Xu Zhen asked.
Xun Qianchun nodded: "After winning, you can talk to the owner of Hualou."
Xu Zhen smiled: "Are you planning to talk directly to the master of Hualou for clues? How could she tell you this kind of thing, if Hualou really has a non-Human eyeliner, she said it, isn't she killing herself?"
Xun Qianchun said: "Too obvious, I try not to ask."
Xu Zhen said, "Why don't I go with you?"
Xun Qianchun frowned: "Mr. should not go to that place."
Xu Zhen secretly thought: I can't go like an adult, can you go if you are a minor.
Despite this idea, Xu Zhen is still very happy, because it shows that Xiao Hua is caring about herself, she nodded and did not argue, and whispered: "Then I will wait for you at home at night."
After talking, he blushed first, urging Xun Qianchun to drink porridge. After drinking the porridge, the two opened the restaurant curtain and walked away, walking in two directions.
Xun Qianchun went to Longmen Flower House and Xu Zhen went home.
The veteran outside the city gate wore several clothes and wrapped himself tightly. Standing behind the city gate, the city gate opened only a single pass.
A white blizzard blew in.
Xun Qianchun saw the silly man sitting at the door. Her cheeks seemed to be frostbitten. The scabbard on her back was covered with falling snow. She squatted down and threw a burlap burlap for the silly man.
The silly aunt suddenly said, "Hu Bing has entered the city?"
The man hasn't spoken for a long time, his voice is like loess, and it has been attacked by wind and frost.
Xun Qianchun heard Xu Zhen talk about this silly aunt.
She saw the man's face with frostbite and lips peeling and explained plainly: "I haven't entered the city, I, the Han."
The silly aunt's skin was darkened with frost, her hands and feet were swollen than ordinary people, but her eyes were black and translucent. She looked up and asked Xun Qianchun: "Are you fighting?"
Xun Qianchun said: "Fight."
The corner of the mouth of the silly man with dry blood, hoarse voice said: "Take me one."
Xun Qianchun didn't ask much, got up and said, "Follow me."
The silly aunt stood up and walked behind Xun Qianchun, limping out of the city gate, leaving different footprints in the snow.
...
In the violent wind at night, Xu Zhen lit a blue light and lay down on the bed to read a book, reading the history of Daqing's development. It wrote: "In the spring of two years, Gao Zu asked for Khan's help, and he was quick and thunderous, driving Haojie And from Ruyancao..."
It is said that Qing Gaozu was firmly seated on the throne at that time, relying on the help of Mobei Khan. Later, for a long time, the relationship between Hu and Han was still good.
Xu Zhen looked at the book.
The sound of someone coming in from outside, after a moment, the quilt was pressed down beside him.
Xu Zhen turned her head and saw that it was a screaming flower, and touched her hand with joy: "You are back? Entering the bed, why do you lie outside?"
Xun Qianchun said, "I'm afraid you are freezing."
Xu Zhen lifted the quilt directly: "Come in."
Xun Qianchun took off her outer clothes and drilled in. She entered the quilt, and somehow thought of the picture she had seen in Hualou before, she stretched out her hand, resting one hand on Xu Zhen's shoulder, and wanted to touch it down, but Recalling that Xu Zhen felt itchy on her waist, she stopped her hand and took it back.
The two were lying on their sides.
Xu Zhen asked whether Xun Qianchun had gone to Hualou tonight, and how was the investigation going.
Xun Qianchun said: "No." She knew that she talked less, and she added, "Today she took the city gate girl and went to the military camp to run a document."
"Silly aunt?" Xu Zhen asked, "Isn't she stupid, how could she be dragged into war? You guys are so hungry and don't choose food."
Xun Qianchun explained: "She wants it herself."
Xu Zhen didn't respond: "What?"
Xun Qianchun said: "She wants to kill the enemy."
Xu Zhen was shocked: "Her spirit recovered?"
Xun Qianchun nodded.
Xu Zhen said, "That's good."
Xun Qianchun still wanted to say something, recalling how the silly aunt said nothing today, her eyes still dead, knowing that this person had lost her dearest person, she couldn't help but follow her fear.
What to do if you lose your husband.
Xun Qianchun was very afraid of this kind of thing happening. She leaned over and hugged Xu Zhen. There was a longing in her heart. She kept clamoring to want to go further with her husband and integrate this person into her own flesh and blood.
But this desire is too domineering.
After knowing that she was poisoned, Xun Qianchun asked others about it and knew a little bit about it. She knew why the poison was caused and why it hurts.
Therefore, she only dared to suppress her emotions, carefully showing a little emotion, and showed it to Xu Zhen, hoping that Mr. Xu could slowly accept herself.
At night, the two people slept peacefully, the blue light was dim, and when the next day they woke up, the candles had gone out, leaving only a glimmer of light in the gloomy sky.
Xun Qianchun brought hot water, called Xu Zhen, helped wipe his face, and prepared the folded clothes. Seeing that Xu Zhendong was still dozing off, he thought he was cute, and he kissed him.
Xu Zhen opened her eyes slightly, kissed her, and there was a sweetness in her heart, and the whole person was sober immediately.
Xun Qianchun stood up, said a few words, and went out to the barracks.
Only Xu Zhen was left sitting in the room, his heart still echoed with the sweetness just now.
So this is love.
Xu Zhen couldn't help but think that falling in love with this kind of thing can make the one who has always been bedridden wake up successfully.
It's amazing.
The falling snow is getting bigger and bigger, and almost no pedestrians can be seen on the road. Xu Zhen is soaked with air conditioning, and he is too lazy to inspect the passers-by at the door. He simply runs to the academy to teach.
Ge Xi'er followed her to the academy.
Although the weather was bad, Xu Zhen was in a good mood, humming a little song while walking.
Ge Xi'er said behind her: "Why is your husband in such a good mood these days?"
Xu Zhen didn't want to show her affection, but laughed perfunctoryly: "If you have a happy event, I won't talk about it in detail."
Ge Xi'er was born in a humble beginning, but was able to be hired as an official directly after the autumn test. Naturally, he has a brain.
She asked: "Sir, did you have a private life with Xu Xiaochun?" She said that she felt ridiculous, but out of instinct, she thought the truth was like this.
Two women privately for life? She hardly ever heard of it in Jiangling.
Moreover, the matter was somewhat offensive. After Ge Xi'er asked the exit, he was slightly annoyed and wanted to withdraw his remarks.
Who knows Xu Zhen said without any shyness: "How do you know that it is true."
She said, and asked, "Oh, is there any precedent for the women together?"
Ge Xi'er was really shocked.
Xu Zhen asked her what she could not answer, and felt that something had been swept away.
Already going to the academy.
Ge Xi'er couldn't help but shouted Xu Zhen, and asked again: "Sir, why did you choose this way? No matter who you choose, it's better than this nonsense."
Xu Zhen stopped and looked back at Ge Xi'er for a while.
In the ear came the ballad of the child blowing along the wind and snow: "Let thousands of miles pass through the sand, fight for the king-"
Xu Zhen asked: "How do you know that my choice is not the best?"
Ge Xi'er has a lot of personality convergence, but if she is anxious, she is still reckless and upright, she said: "Sir, you have been demoted from Changan, and you had the opportunity to go back, but if you have a relationship with Hu Ji, you really can't go back. Alright. Besides, you are both women..."
Ge Xi'er didn't say the rest, but Xu Zhen knew it, because the female officer had mentioned her before.
Even if I really like to call flowers, I can’t move it. Although Daqing said that men and women are equal, it is only literal, and people’s hearts are difficult to figure out. There are not many rumors behind it, especially if this woman is still a Hu. You sin, this life may be over.
Both of them kindly advised each other.
Xu Zhen knew she should be grateful, but she didn't care what other people thought.
Ge Xi'er also said: "This is a Hu, or a woman, sir, you can have a better choice."
Xu Zhen said: "I haven't lectured for a long time. I will tell you another lesson today."
Ge Xi'er's face changed, and I didn't know what Xu Zhen was going to say.
Xu Zhen said slowly: "In the past, there was a person who lived in turmoil and worried about money every day. He couldn't bear it. He ran to discuss with the life and death verdict, and lived once again. This time he relived, he seized various opportunities and became a The rich, but also chased the girl she likes."
Ge Xi'er asked: "Then he must be very happy?"
Xu Zhen said: "Everyone thinks like this, but in fact, he began to worry about other things, feeling that he would go bankrupt at any time, and thinking that his wife just liked his money."
Ge Xi'er said: "He is suffering too much."
Xu Zhen said: "He thought the same way, so he gave away his money and restored his previous state of being poor."
Ge Xi'er asked curiously: "Is he happy?"
Xu Zhen said: "I have been happy for a while."
Ge Xi'er asked: "Why not happy later?"
Xu Zhen said: "Naturally, I began to abandon the poor again, and began to worry about not being able to eat enough for the next meal.
Ge Xi'er thought for a while and asked, "Sir, are you trying to explain the truth of "moderate"? It can't be too poor or too rich."
Xu Zhen remained silent for a moment, and felt that Ge Xi'er was so sensible.
She coughed twice and said, "No, I just want to say that no matter what choices are made, it can't be perfect."
Ge Xi'er nodded and agreed with this view.
Xu Zhen said: "So many times, the decision you make is already the best and you don't have to think too much about it."
Ge Xi'er was about to nod, thinking of why Xu Zhen was refuting, and wanted to ask again, but just a little negligent, Xu Zhen had already ran into the academy under the wind and snow, leaving two lines of footprints.
The academy raised the stove and was warm.
Xu Zhen just sat down and enjoyed the treatment she should have in the winter, so some students came to speak with her.
It was probably a good teaching in the past few days, so that this group of students got close to Xu Zhen.
A student asked: "Mr. Xu, I heard that you were an official in Changan before. What is your official?"
Xu Zhen said: "The first is the foreigner, and then Shang Shu."
"Shangshu? What is that, and how does it compare with the general?"
Xu Zhen said: "Of course it is no better than a general, who is in charge of the examination of books and the imperial examinations, and has to engage in things like sacrificial offerings. I would not at all."
The people around whispered.
"Then how can you be a Shangshu?"
Xu Zhen proudly said, "I have made great achievements in disaster relief."
What is the merits of disaster relief? Nor is it the killing of the enemy, nor the imperial examination. After listening to several of them around, I felt that Xu Zhen had no skill, probably just a sharp tongue, and the original respect for Xu Zhen faded a lot.
Xu Zhen didn't care.
A few others stayed beside her, staring at Xu Zhen with bright eyes, and asked, "Is the saint in Chang'an Palace okay?"
Xu Zhen said: "Is the emperor? It's good, but it's still a temper tantrum, I'm afraid it can't be changed."
This group of students didn't understand too much, and when they heard the emperor was doing well, they nodded with confidence.
Xu Zhen asked, "Do you care about the Holy Spirit?"
The student said: "We are protecting Jiang Shang and Sheng Shang."
Xu Zhen felt surprised after hearing it.
This group of students is completely different from Jiangling's. Jiangling's is dandy, and here is Zhongliang.
Xu Zhen said: "Since this is the case, I will tell you more about Chang'an in the future."
These students seemed a little happy after listening.
Xu Zhen said: "So you listen to the class and don't sleep anymore."
The student nodded and responded loudly.
After the class, in addition to studying, Xu Zhen said something about Changan. She has a limited social circle. She can only talk about the students in the Hongdu Academy, as well as several people in the department of rituals, the owner of the bookstore, and the Holy Master in the hall. , Baiguan, as well as the prince, the county governor.
The students were eye-opening.
They never knew that it was troubled in the Holy Spirit. When the hundred officials eat, drink and chat, they have nothing to do with ordinary people.
Even the particularly powerful Hongdu Academy has students who do not like to study.
"I must take the Imperial Examination." Some students said, "I also want to be like Mr. Xu. From Changan to Pingliang, it's great!"
"Are you stupid, Mr. Xu was demoted, not good."
The students whispered.
Xu Zhen, who was sitting at the front, listened, and couldn't help laughing. She looked at the time, packed her tea cups and books, and went home.
However, as soon as I walked out of the door, I saw a person standing in the snow at the door. It should be a student of the school. He sat on the ground and looked down crying.
Xu Zhen went over and asked, "Classmate, what's wrong with you?"
The student looked up at Xu Zhen, and after a while, howled and cried, "Sir, me, my sister was arrested and went to Hualou!!"
